One love and one love president obama stops in jamaica. Today, april 9, 2015. Announcer from nbc news this is today live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Good morning, Everyone Welcome to today on a thursday morning. We probably should start the show this way every day. We will have to play that president obama story more often because it gives us an excuse to play bab marley. Severe weather throwing overnight of tornadoes, rain hail dylan is in following all of it. We saw tornadoes, hail we had flash flooding. Take a look at this video from deerhead kansas. You can see obviously a 71 el cloud. Youtosee that rainbow right there. Unbelievable video from a more rural area from southern kansas right on the border of oklahoma. So there were no damage reports because it was obviously in that rural area. Now in missouri we saw more hail than anything else. We have reports of hail two to three inches in diameter winds toppling trees, power lines, tearing the rooves off some building. We also had a lot of reports to damage to vehicles because of the hail baseball and grapefruit size hail. Missouri is famous for getting giant hail storms. Golfball size hail. Falling from the sky. Unfortunately, we are looking at the same setup again today. We got this really warm somewhat humid air, 60s and 70s ahead of this front. Behind it its in the 30s and 40s. Its that clash thats producing those stronger storms. We are going to see them fire up today. This morning we have your run of the mill thunderstorms. Heavy downpours, right around st. Louis. Now, chicago is in the 40s right now. Its going to be in the 70s later on this afternoon and will increase the threat of Severe Weather. Look at this from texas all the way up into parts of West Virginia. Thats where we are going to see widespread thunderstorms. Its in this area on our end we could see more tornadoes. Hail twotothree inches in diameter. Tomorrow that shift is going to shift further to the east. We have a threat of thunderstorms from texas into central new jersey. However, we will lose the threat of tornadoes tomorrow. Today we certainly have to keep an eye out for those. A little piece of good news in the future. It gets better yes. Thank you very much. In other news outrage is growing in that deadly shooting of an unarmed black man by an unarmed man in South Carolina. In a moment we will speak to that person who caught the case on camera. Gabe gutierrez meanwhile has more on the case. Good morning to you. Reporter verdicts could release dash cam video as early as today. The officer involved in that investigation has been fired from the department. City Officials Say they now plan to arm every officer on the street with body cameras. This morning we are hearing from the man many are calling a hero for recording the deadly encounter thats now been seen by millions. The initial Police Report said walter scott took officer Michael Slagers taser. He grabbed my taser. Santana told lester holt. I believe he wanted to get away of the taser. Like i said he never used the taser against the cop. Reporter right now there are two main questions they want answered. Its not clear whether its his taser and appears to drop the object next to scotts body. Also not clear, why the video doesnt show officers performing cpr when the initial Police Report said they had. There are questions i have in my mind that i cant answer right now. Reporter scotts family is thankful the video became public even though its so hard to watch. It was too heart breaking. I wouldnt want that to happen to anybody. Reporter mr. Michael slager reporter now charged with murder we are learning more about officer slager on the North Charleston police force for six years, his wife eight months pregnant. Personnel record show there was a complaint against him if 2013 for improper use of force with a taser involving a black man but officer slager was exonerated. This shooting now reigniting a National Debate about the use of deadly force. They shot him down like dog. That cant happen in 2015. Reporter officer slager has not yet entered a plea. He has just retained a new attorney who so far is declining to comment publicly at length. At least for now, matt. Thank you santana is with us with his attorney john reutherford. What have the last couple of days been like for you . Oh its been something i never expected. You know i say lifes changed in a matter of seconds i have been a witness, this video and to tlord and all this will happen. Lets go back to saturday. You are walking to work. You are on the phone. You see the confrontedation, excuse me between officer slager and mr. Scott. I believe you saw the officer on top of mr. Scott and you heard the taser. What did it sound like . The taser it was just sounding like i say he was using the taser with mr. Scott. How did mr. Scott react immediately following being tased . How did he react to that. Before the video i saw that he was trying to get away from the taser and his reaction was you know to get away of the taser. Was there a struggle over the taser that you saw . Were they fighting over it . No, he never got the taser off the police. He never got the taser. You then put the phone up and record after that moment and within seconds you record officer slager firing eight shots. Yes. One minute you are walking to work. The next minute eight shots are fired. You must have been scared . Yes, still, im still scared. Youre still scared . Yes. Yet you maintain your composure enough to keep videotaping this . Yeah. When you saw walter scott fall to the ground can you just describe your reaction . At that moment i didnt it didnt really thought he was going to die or that he was dead. You know never, maybe thought one bullet would catch him and he fell to the ground. I didnt know how many bullets he was catched by and, yeah never thought of any of that that he was dead. I want you to look at monitor here for second. There is a moment on your cell phone video, immediately after officer slager stops firing, it appears to me that he looks directly at you. Im going to run the tape and just watch that instant. He fires the eight shots and then he looks right over. Do you think he was looking at you . Yes, definitely. Before like i record the video so maybe he felt that he can foley that someone is there, like i say, it was an empty spot. There were just the three of us in that moment. Like i say i didnt i couldnt tell what was going to happen so i just want him to know that you know hes in the by himself. You moved around and you got closer. There is one portion of the tape where you are pretty close to walter scott on the ground and the officers now, two of them are standing over mr. Scott. Did they say anything to you . Did you say anything to them . I was saying in the video that it was an abuse what the Police Officer was doing, what he have done at that moment. The officer didnt say that right when i get close, he actually said to one of them told me to just move from there. You eventually showed this tape to the scott family. I know you described that was a difficult thing for them to see. Mr. Rutherford if he had not taken those images with his cell phone, this would be his word against officer slagers word. Thats right. That video changes everything. The video changes everything and shows the importance of body cameras, thankfully theyre now moving to other body cameras for other officers, hes afraid. The first thing he said how can he get protection . There are other officers saying they performed cpr. He was there five minutes afterwards and he saw nobody did cpr. What does he do when the ones supposed to protect us turn against us. Do you have annancer . What do you do . Keep talking about this . Like i said like i say to todd i decide now to show my face to the media because like i say to him all my life have changed after this with this. Now you know they say people know where i live people know you know where i work. You know so my normal routine from just walking from my house to the work, to work have changed. I said to him, i will have to like i say, at some point i thought about staying anonymous and dont show my face dont talk about it but there is something that have to go you know beyond that at this and like i say if i want to show my face everybody over there knows including the Police Officers in the department knows who i am now. We appreciate you talking to us this morning. Thank you very much. Todd thank you very much as well. Lets go over to savannah. Thank you so much. The penalty phase in the marathon bombing case could begin next week. Dzhokhar tsarnaev faced 31 charges. Now they will decide if he will be sentenced to life in prison or death. Pete williams is in boston this morning. Good morning to you. Reporter savannah good morning. The jury reached that verdict after just 11 hours of deliberation. Victims and family members crowded into the courtroom to hear it and to see the marathon bomber who showed no reaction. Now that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been found guilty he faces a second trial to decide between life if prison without parole or death by lethal injection. Wednesdays verdict guilty on every one of the 30 counts against him. For two bombings two years ago near the finish line of the Boston Marathon that killed eightyearold martin richard, lingzi lu and injured 200 plus more guilty too for murdering Police Officer sean collier and carjacking a terrified businessman who escaped and pleaded for help a part of a crime spree three nights later. No date now for the next trial. Legal experts say his defense lawyers will benefit for several days. I would ask for as much time possible to from this moment to the sentencing phase to separate the jurors from the trial. Reporter Heather Abbott wanted to see tsarnaev accountable. I think he got guilty and the jury got it right. Now he has to live with the consequences. Reporter in texas, bombing victim Rebecca Gregory says she will be back if boston for the final days. I do believe he should be held accountable. So whatever that is i believe the true judgment comes after he die, anyway so its really not my judgment to make and my heart goes out to the jury that has to make this decision. Reporter the jury has the rest of the week off t. Penalty phase might start as early as next week giving boston some time to absorb the verdict the city has been waiting for. Matt. Savannah.

I know its meaningful to a lot of people and im honored for that. But thats not why i set out to do this. To break a gender barrier of any sorts. I just did it because i loved officiating. Reporter but the announcement comes after a challenging season for the nfl, following a number of high profile Domestic Violence cases involving its players.

We are joined by actress and mother of two, Mariel Hemingway. She is releasing two books simultaneously. The first is out came the sun, overcoming the addiction of Mental Illness and suicide in my family and mariel you have been busy. I have been busy. I have to say, this concept struck me as unique and making a lot of sense. You are telling your story in a straight forward memoir and telling it from your young adults point of view. Why did you want to do that . Well first of all, i think ininvisible girl ininvisible girl, he really came from my heart. That was a time when i was most confused. I think you have no Life Experience to give a voice to those children you are not alone, i hear you. You are not invisible. I love my family i didnt know where it was coming. Its clear you love your parents. You adore them very much but your growing up was fought easy. Well it wasnt. Py family god love them. They were wonderful. But they were self medicating pain and a lack an inability to communicate. So there was a lot of fighting. There was a lot of drinking. There was a lot of and i kind of chose to be the cleanup girl him i was going to fix everything. I was going to make everything okay. I think there is a lot of people not only young girls, but people that can relate to that role that i wanted to play. I wanted to be perfect. I wanted to make things okay. I was the one in the family that was going to change everything and then you know its been a journey of discovering that you know im my best teacher and guru and you know whatever it is it lies within me. So. You have conquered some of the cycles that you were very open about your family going through substance abuse, that kind of thing. Youve got two girls now. How did you kind of get through your dramatic parts of your growing up and find this place of peace . Thats why i wrote these books is because i really think that telling your story is the first piece in being able to recover and heal. So if we you know if i, Mariel Hemingway, who has this and we think has no problems and can tell her story, then might be it gives invitation to somebody else to be able to them theirs and really bring light to a subject that people dont want to talk about. So its ending stigma. You know because there is still, we still criminal him at the idea that we come from not perfect families and so you know, i really think that so many of us have these problems. In regard to my daughters, i absolutely love them and i want other girls and boys to know that they are loved and seen and even if its not their parents, they do love you, but, you know maybe you need somebody else to listen. Its interesting because the book is called the young adult version is called invisible girl. You just said a moment ago, you want young people to feel seen. Why do you think that was the particular way you felt as a child that somehow you werent noticed or werent seen by your parents . You know i think in a lot of ways i found out early on i was a mistake. Not that they didnt love me but you know it came out as you are listening, you hear your parents fighting. You find out you are a mistake. Unplanned pregnancy. Yeah. And when you feel that i know you have to be so careful as a parent to really be careful about what you say and what you do behind closed doors because kids know. Kids know whats going on and i felt invisible in the sense that because i wanted my family because my sisters were you know rebellious. One was into drugs and alcohol t. Other was into alcohol and she was, you know troubled. Both of them were difficult for my parents so i think that i felt like hey, im here you know and having chosen to be the perfect one, i felt unseen. You also talk about your young days in hollywood. You got good tales in there literally being chased around a casting couch by one director. There is a story have you in there about woody allen. Of course you were in manhattan. What happened there . To be quite honest woody allen treated me wonderful. I played his girlfriend. I invited him to idaho. He showed me manhattan, im going to show him idaho. Idaho . So woody allen shows up in idaho and he had asked me to go to paris and in my naive mind see i played a characterer whos really sophisticated. But that wasnt the Mariel Hemingway of idaho. So basically i just said i dont think i can go to paris because i dont think im going to get my own room. Well, you were wise beyond your own years. There you go. Congratulations on the books. One is called out came the sun. The other invisible girl. Thank you. Thank you so much. Great to have you here. She will be back later by the way with kathy and hoda. Matt over to you.

Up next three generations of one family. They embody the run for todays spirit. First this is today on nbc. All right. We are back at 8 39. Time for our ongoing series running for today. Leading up to fitness shape, a womans Half Marathon here in new york city. Which is going to be cool. Natalie is cohosting this weekend with erica hill. You have a good story. A good family story. The park family in North Carolina boasts three generations of runners. They go to one tough grandma who refuses to quit. Rachel park runs because running is in her blood. Her father dave is a runner. And so is her grandmother anne. In fact at the age of 75 anne is the inspiration for whats become a family tradition. A running road show that spans at least eight states. This trio runs marathons as a family. This month marking their tenth race together. Thats a collective 786 miles. It mulligan when anne was in her early 50s. A friend encouraged her to run her First Quarter mile. Only my own stubbornness and pig headedness kept me from quitting. I wanted to quit so bad i was dying. I did get around once. Then i got hooked. Somehow it just got in my blood. Reporter anne ran her first marathon at the age of 58. 23 would follow. There is no one in my age group usually anymore now im 75. Rachel was watching. Not long after she learned to walk she was running. The first time i ever ran with her, i was 5. Reporter the bond was forged and grew over time. For the parks, the years went by like mile markers, with family photos full of bid numbers. Five years ago, dave joined them. It was tough, im a relatively young guy, so that really impressed me about my moms accomplishments more. People find out, oh you run marathons, who do you run with . I say my grandma, at first theyre surprised i run marathons then theyre surprised im running because of my grandma, its amazing how she inspires me and others too. Reporter annes determination comes from the commitment to herself. I grew up in the age where women were not athletes. We only ran half court in basketball. They didnt want us to run any farther. We might not be able to have babies if we ran too much. Thats what i grew up with. I want to prove to myself i can do it. Another tradition, a carbo loading pasta dinner. The following morning in the predawn light, the parks and 43 hundred runners mulligan in cary North Carolina. Keeping pace with anne is may have i rachels mom sarah. Yes, she runs too, we caught up with them at mile 10 and mile 17. Go gram you can do it. And mile 21 dave and raven el were waiting. You got it mom, just a few more steps. They wanted to finish this race together. Across the line the agony of exhaustion and then the smile of success the effort she gave on the last quarter mile was incredible. Im so proud of her. I dont think i can do that. You can power through it if you really push and dont give up you will be so proud of yourself and its worth it if you go through the pain you know its really worth it. You see why shes such an inspiration, she came in first in her age group for that race. She shows no signs of slowing down. In fact the whole family is talking about their next destination marathon either germany or hawaii. We will gore up two weeks away now. Oh my gosh. Such a whiner. Look how great she looks. She looks amazing. When i realize her running pace is quite a bit faster tan mine. Good for her. Natalie, thank you thats awesome. Coming up next do you know your value . Mica is here.

There was a flight leaveing from iceland to denver yesterday. And that is the result of a Lightning Strike that blew a hole in the nose of the plane shortly after takeoff from iceland. Passengers on the iceland air flight say they heard a bang and a pop and a flash of light. Get this. The plane kept going, more than 300 miles, continued on to denver. The plane landed normally safely. It wasnt until after they landed the passengers were looking back at the plane a passenger actually took these pictures through the window. How did it stay . Can you imagine what the pilot thought within they came out and looked at the damage that would be something that i think would shake you at the core a little bit. The pilots and iceland air said the passengers were never in jeopardy the prudent thing would have been to turn around. It did happen so quickly to go back to iceland and at least look at it. Its amazing when you think of aviation accidents from when birds fly into the jet, thats incredible they were able to keep going and not know it. Have you ever been on a flight struck by lightning . I dont know if i have. Its scary t. Wing was hit but it was find clearly. Its scary when you realize how easy that is and how close that is. Unlike a little turbulence im holding onto the friend next to me are we going to make it . I cant say turbulence. Its scary. Everyone was okay. They continue for seven hours with a fine flight. So they were okay. All right. You got a great story. I love this womans story. The nfl making history, announcing its first female full time official to sit down with sarah thomas. She is a one time cookie. I love her. She is so empressive. They are saying this is a pr move. This is a woman who is an official for 20 years. She started in peewee football. She loved the game. She went up through high school through division i, has coached bowl games, preseason nfl, totally qualified, has the respect of all her peers. I asked her if she reviewed this as significant socially. Im just out doing a job. I know it is meaningful to a lot of people and im honored for that but thats not why i set out to do this. To break a gender barrier of any sorts. I just did it because i loved officiating high school level. Talking to her yesterday, she has no interest in that narrative. Listen i earned this position. I have been doing this an awful long time. She also got this close two years ago in 2013 and didnt make the last cut into the league. She was driven by that. Now shes made it. She was a lot of fun to talk to. As i said the coaches in the nfl say she is one of the best. So shell be out there this fall. I love her young boys, i guess, when they found out what she was going to be dock. They were excited for her. She has three kids. They got a lot of pats on the back at school your mom is in the nfl im surprised they just got pats your mom, tickets . Thats coming pretty sure. Pretty amazing. I love how she worked through the ranks. She knows the game inside out, pretty amazing. Shes very cool. Oh Something Else thats cool. You this summer natalie, you are taking off on these venture tours without jenna bushhager. She has a baby on the way. Exactly. You are rolling along, i have been going online looking for things i think are so exciting. I live through you, im nervous again through turbulence.

Another Anne Hathaway amazing wrecking ball. Tonight at 10 00. Im still stuck on thats Justin Bieber. Thats good. We have an update. Yesterday out on the plaza, i met a young boy, his name is tyler. Hes from twin falls, idaho. He really wanted to ask his girlfriend Mariah Garcia to the prom. The problem is she lives in california. When we tried to call her yesterday, it was 6 00 a. M. In the morning. If you have teenagers, picture calling at 6 00 a. M. To a teenager. Its probably their spring break. Once she answered the phone, i think the first time when we were still alive on air, either she didnt believe it was the today show or she was a teenager awaken at 6 00 a. M. Nevertheless we got mariah on the phone and by popular request heres what happened. Hey marie mariah its tile early. Im not sure if youve seen it already, i have a big question for you, will you go to the prom with me . Of course. Of course im super excited. Thank you so much. Thank you see that little smile at the end. Now, granted, think about this. You are a teenage kid. You are only dating a couple years he says by dating when you are a teenager thats talking on the phone a lot. He wasnt sure she would go all in and she lives in california. That makes more sense.

Its people like robert that will clanghange the world. Hes a good human being with a huge heart. He is passionate about what hes doing. They designed the shirts with words that ronan. In my hardest days ronan is telling me living my life to the fullest because he cant be here anymore. Once the shirts are finalized and printed. The second half kicks in. I hire workers with special needs to fold and package the 30s. 80 of them are unemployed. Thats a ridiculous number. So we contacted the center for rehabilitation. We hire their workers. I could not be happier. They do such an amazing job. Robert has done 56 campaigns so far, raising 87,000. Money desperately needed since Research Grants are becoming more difficult for doctors to obtain. We rely so heavily on plan the fillphilanthropic donations. Its huge.

Like millions of other families the hemmingways have struggled with Mental Illness and addiction for generations. Whats not often discussed is out it feels to grow up in those kind of households. Actress and author Mariel Hemmingway writes so candidly how that experience affected her childhood and beyond. You look awesome. Thank you. Youre a walking miracle. I love you. She does. Oh, my god. By the way this is such a serious book. I think i mean, its important to put the book out. But i love the fact youre doing a young adult version of this. Absolutely. I wrote it whats very bizarre is how easy it was to write from a 14yearold perspective. I think that thats you know we form our memories and the way we react to the world when were a child. Even though we spend only 14, 18 years looking you know having that life with our parents, we spend the rest of our life trying to get over it. What was your life and your family like . Well, you know, to be fair my family was great. My grandfather, greatest writer of all time. I grew up in idaho. It was wonderful. At the same time my father was dealing with being the son of the greatest writer in the 20th century. Right. And he couldnt handle that. He was selfmedicating. In a terrible marriage were there was no communication. There was a lot of drinking. I became the fixer. I decided i was going to clean up after them and make everything okay. Also my sisters, they were much older than me. They were into drugs. They were into alcohol. Its about loving your family but not knowing if thats normal not knowing if what youre doing is okay. And feeling confused. Yeah. When you talk about cleaning up, you mean like when there were glasses thrown around. You as a young girl trying to clean the mess up. Well, yeah. I really think that we we think, oh, you know our kids wont know if were having trouble. Even behind closed doors, kids know. They feel it they sense it. I would wake up literally in the middle of the night, go downstairs, clean up all the mess of whatever had happened in hopes that wed wake up the next day and it would all be fine. What you realize, until you tell your story, until you dig deep and tell your story of your childhood, you will repeat those patterns. As i got older, i realized i kept repeating the patterns of control and trying to get things together. Fix the messes. Now im good. You are more than good. You talk about you wanted to you wanted to be invisible almost. Yes. And thats why the young adult book is called invisible girl. I actually felt like no one could see me. I was an unplanned pregnancy. But, you know in a moment of fighting between my parents, you know you hear that youre a mistake.
