the miami heat are once again nba champions. >> and victory, at long last. the heat take down the thunder in just five games. king james, finally achieving the dream he's forever chased. now, the big three are here, after the biggest night of their lives. only on "gma." >> good morning. >> good morning. >> wake up. and i think the big three are saying, how do you like us now? >> yes, they are. >> a convincing series win over the thunder. they had a great season, too. but, boy. miami taking it in five. the big win at miami. and let's see. sam, lara and i picked the heat. you and george, i think, had -- >> we just wanted to make it interesting. >> you did make it interesting. >> i realized this. decide how i feel about it and go the other way. good morning, america. happy friday. george is off. taking a little time off. glad to have josh by my side. we have a lot to get to on this friday morning. the jury in the jerry sandusky trial deliberating late into the night. and the bombshell allegations they do not know about. new, dramatic charges from sandusky's adopted son, matt. >> you're not going to believe it. we'll finally hear directly from rielle hunter. what she told our chris cuomo, about what john edwards told her about his marriage and other affairs. and the moment she said he went off the deep end. >> and chris will be here with that. plus, the sinkhole shocker. a stunning scene. one woman came home to how her house -- look at that. just got swallowed. that's a live picture right there. and the scene is being repeated in many places. >> indeed, it is. and the big party in the park. mary j. blige taking center stage in the park this morning. let's begin with the breaking news overnight on the economy. oil prices at their lowest point in nearly nine months. that could make some eye-popping moments at the gas pump this weekend, in a good kind of way. and major news on the nation's biggest banks. abc's david muir is tracking it for us this morning. why don't we start at the pump? >> reporter: gas prices hovering at lows we haven't seen in seven months. $78 a barrel. below $3 a gallon. south carolina and virginia, the states to follow this weekend and keep an eye on. all could have gas prices below $3 a gallon and soon. the good news says economists, the less families have to pay for gas, the more they can spend elsewhere. on the flipside, the reason oil prices have come down is because of the global economic slowdown. >> we do have the good news for the oil prices. but here, we hear about 17 banks -- we heard about this late yesterday. the ratings cut like that. how is that going to affect all of us? >> reporter: these are names we know on the streets of new york and across america. moody's downgrading the banks. more than a dozen, lowering the credit rating over worries of the volatile markets in europe. it will make it harder to lend. it will make it more difficult for mortgages and loans. hopefully one good point on all of this is that the markets seem to have factored in this downgrade. they knew it was coming. perhaps a less volatile today day. >> it's not going to be a repeat of what we saw before. >> reporter: nobody thinks so. >> thank you. have a good weekend. now, for the stunner in the jerry sandusky trial. matt sandusky, the adopted son of the former penn state football coach, accusing him of abuse. and the jury, entering its second day of deliberations, doesn't know about this allegation. and jim avila is in bellefonte, pennsylvania, this morning. good morning to you, jim. >> reporter: good morning, josh. the sandusky jury deliberated into the night. and is back at it again today, looking and trying to sort through the testimony of eight accusers. they did not hear from a surprising ninth would-be witness, from inside the sandusky family circle. the sandusky defense team did not want to talk about it. >> i can't talk about the case until after it's over. >> reporter: but abc news has confirmed that during the trial, in the 11th hour, jerry sandusky was hit with a final indignity. his own adopted son, 33-year-old matt sandusky, turned on his father. and approached prosecutors with what his attorney calls an extremely painful experience. claiming he is a victim of jerry sandusky's abuse. a potential witness, who began the trial in support of jerry, in the family section. only to offer on the last day of testimony, to take the stand for the prosecution. an offer prosecutors rejected. >> matt sandusky had said several times earlier that he wasn't molested by jerry sandusky. and then, to suddenly change his mind or some public with the fact that he now claims he was, would have really opened him up for serious cross-examination. >> reporter: matt met jerry sandusky at second mile when he was 10. a troubled teenager, he moved into the sandusky home at 16. always defending his father. even when his birth mother told the grand jury and abc news, he was groomed to be a victim. >> i would sit back. and i would watch when jerry would show up, how excited matt was. and then, as time went on, i would watch the same kid hide behind the bedroom door and say, tell him i'm not home. >> how scary is this as a mom? >> it's a nightmare. nobody even wants to think that somebody would do that to their child. >> reporter: now, as for the jury, they hear none of this. in fact, they're sequestered in their hotel rooms when they're not inside the courtroom. that means when they go to the hotel rooms. the phones are turned off. their televisions are turned off. all the cell phones and computers taken away. so, there is quite an incentive to reach a verdict today before the weekend. josh? >> thank you, jim. and for more, let's bring in "20/20" anchor, chris cuomo, for legal analysis. chris, a stunner here. something we just heard, something the jury knows nothing of. what impact could this have, if any? >> the biggest impact is for us, josh. the prosecutors have put it on. you have a dozen people involved over 15 years. there was a wealth of evidence. a wealth of victims who didn't know each other. different types of scenarios. different nature in quality of content of the behavior. they had a very thick case. >> indeed, they did. so, it certainly seems on its face, that this deck is stacked against sandusky. if you're a member, then, of the defense team, what are you hoping today? >> it's an interesting case. why? it's been a window into the failings of an institution. and that's why it took so long for this prosecution to happen. so, from the defense's side, they're going to attack why it took so long. and all of the different things that prosecutors and cops did with the different victims. they're going to try to confuse. and they're going to hope at the end of the day, the men and women on that jury, don't believe jerry sandusky is this type of man. but that is a big risk. >> we just heard from jim. there's a lot of incentive to get this done today. in your opinion, do we see a verdict? >> here's what i know for sure. working on cases as a journalist and an attorney. jurors take it seriously. we love the weekend. they love justice more. this is not a simple case. but once you start seeing a pattern, it will go quickly. >> all right. chris cuomo, you're back in just a bit. let's turn, now, for the day's top headlines and bianna golodryga. >> we begin with a breaking story we've been following overnight from mt. rainier in washington state. a ranger at the national park service was helping to rescue four climbers who had fallen on a glacier, when he lost his footing and fell 3,700 feet to his death. nick hall was an experienced climber. but the winds made the rescue treacherous. he was just 34 years old. and a different ending to this dramatic rescue in vermont. a couple out fishing got swept down a waterfall, after the wife lost her footing. amazingly, they survived the 20-foot drop with only minor cuts. turning overseas, now. dozens of women and children were taken hostage this morning, as suicide attackers stormed a hotel in kabul, afghanistan. at least 17 people were killed. the taliban claims it launched the attack because the hotel was serving alcohol. and a major arrest in the violent drug war south of the border. the man believed to be the son of mexico's most-wanted drug lord has been captured by marines near gaud la har ra. he coordinated shipments for the cartel, the most powerful in mexico. a man walked out of a madison avenue gallery with a $150,000 salvador dali painting in his bag. he fooled the guard into letting him take a picture of it. then, he grabbed it off the wall and ran. police haven't seen him since. and a violent crash was caught on camera at this railroad crossing in charlotte. a driver tried to beat the train. but the craossing came down jus before the train slammed into her suv. the driver survived. but it took 14 firefighters to pull her out of the wreckage. and josh didn't think it could happen. but they did it in five. the miami heat are world champions this morning. beating the oklahoma city thunder, 121-106. last night, king lebron james, he was crowned king after 26 points and 13 assists. full emotion was on display as lebron finally got to hoist the larry o'brien trophy. we'll have an exclusive interview with lebron and the entire big three. coming up. but first -- >> we can't not do this. >> a look at the "gma" scoreboard. robin, sam and lara, officially declared winners for backing the heat. congratulations. >> oh. it was really tough. especially in the fourth quarter. >> yeah, right. no wonder george isn't here. >> thank you, bianna. appreciate that. now, to the latest on the story that's sparked a national conversation about bullying. and a show of compassion across the country. that school bus monitor caught on camera being bullied by seventh grade boys, speaking out, saying she's not going to press any charges. abc's john schriffen joins us from rochester, new york, with much more, on the happy ending to this story. john, good morning. >> reporter: robin, good morning. the police are having to protect the middle schoolboys, now infamous for taunting their 68-year-old school bus monitor. overnight, the boys issued apologies. but it may be too little too late. >> you're so foot. >> reporter: this morning, the seventh grade boys recorded taunting their bus monitor, are ducking out, and speaking out. they issued written apologies to their target, 68-year-old karen klein. one writing, i'm so sorry for the way i treated you. when i saw the video, i was disgusted and couldn't believe i did that. the seventh grader who shot the video, said their taunting was just an attempt to attract attention online. >> why would this be a problem? >> reporter: but they say they had no idea it would go this far. the video has now been seen by tens of millions. their once-desired fame, now unwanted infamy. now, the teens' families say, they're living in fear. their names and addresses made public. >> it's amazing that people would stick up for a lady who was being harassed by younger children. but they're harassing my family with death threats. >> reporter: meanwhile, investigators are looking into the incident. but say the boys likely won't be arrested. why aren't the teenagers being charged with a crime? >> miss klein decided she didn't want to press charges at this time. >> imagine if it was one of your grandparents. >> reporter: while klein says she's overwhelmed by the public support. >> it makes me feel great. i'm not used to that much attention. >> reporter: and the fund-raising website, set up to send klein on vacation, is bringing in thousands of dollars an hour. going from $5,000, to more than $400,000 in a few days. klein even got the support of well. known anti-bullying champion, ellen degeneres, who tweeted, it breaks my heart. bullying doesn't end when you grow up. it looks like karen klein is becoming a little more comfortable with her new-found fame. as for the punishment for the boys, sources tell me the school board is considering suspending them for the entire school year next year. a decision is expected to come down some time next week after meeting with the superintendent. robin? >> john, so many people offering anything they can. the outrage across the country. and our parent company, disney, inviting karen down for a trip. and so many people reacting to what the boys did and what is being done now. >> bullying is a scourge. it must end. we're going to turn to the shocking sight one woman came home to after running just a few quick errands. her house, swallowed by a massive sinkhole. and it's still on shaky ground. bazi kanani is at the house in florida. good morning to you, bazi. >> reporter: good morning, josh. this sinkhole behind me could still be growing in size. and because of that threat, no one is allowed to get too close. even the next door neighbors are evacuated, until investigators are sure this sinkhole won't suck in anything else. the half of the house that is left this morning is now worthless. >> i said, oh, my gosh. you just look over there. and just the whole back end of the house just flipped into the hole. >> reporter: it took just an hour for the 79-year-old grandmother's home to crumble into the ground wednesday, sliding into a sinkhole, the size of a two-car garage. >> she laid her head on my shoulder and cried a little bit. >> reporter: this florida neighborhood is on-edge. thinking their home could be next. they may have reason to worry. last month, about 100 miles away, an even larger sinkhole, 100 feet wide, devoured this family's entire backyard. stopping at the doorstep. >> we came downstairs. when we came down, the ground was collapsing on itself. >> reporter: in the past two days alone, sinkholes gobbled up parts of roads in western michigan. and in duluth, minnesota, where a driver had to be rescued. scientists say holes like these happen when water beneath the ground weakens the bedrock. when the rock gives way, the land above caves in. what sometimes comes crashing down with it, as it did here in hudson, florida, are a lifetime of memories. >> she cried. it was her house. she just walked in and saw it. i feel bad for her. >> reporter: the house is now condemned. so, whatever the sinkhole doesn't take, bulldozers will get. neighbors tell me the homeowner was allowed to get into some of the rooms to salvage some items. the bitter irony of this is on the same day the house sank, inspectors were at the home checking on the potential risk for just such a thing. it was a precaution taken just a little too late. >> a stunning result of the extreme weather we've been seeing. and weather, stretching from minnesota to florida. >> we have the incredible survival story out of duluth, minnesota. torrential rains, floods, destroying so much of the city in what may have been the worst flood ever there. more than $100 million in damages. and one brave, little boy was literally sucked into the middle of it all. abc's alex perez has that story. >> reporter: as rushing waters were drowning parts of duluth, minnesota, this week, 8-year-old kenneth markowitz and his usin, emily, decided to play outside their home. >> me and emily were in a mud puddle. a big one. >> reporter: what they didn't realize was that mud puddle was part of a flooded creek. underneath it, a storm drain. >> i got sucked in the drainpipe. >> reporter: sucked into the swirling water, the boy vanished into the culvert. >> i started screaming. i prayed. and i just prayed. >> reporter: meanwhile, kenneth was being tossed and pushed through the culvert by the speeding floodwater. battered as he traveled almost a mile in the narrow darkness under duluth's rain-swollen streets. kenneth didn't panic. even remembering to pinch his nose. >> i can get, so my air stays in. >> reporter: the current shoved him into the daylight behind this home. >> kenneth comes out of the woods. and he had blood streaming down his head from all sides. >> reporter: marshall tended to the frightened boy, astonished by his bravery. >> i can't imagine how he survived. >> i can't imagine what he went through. the fear he must have felt. >> reporter: to kenneth, it was no big deal. >> i just did nothing. >> reporter: to everyone else, a miracle. for "good morning america," alex perez, abc news, chicago. >> oh. he did something, all right. >> takes your breath away. >> what a brave, brave little boy. let's go to sam, now, for the weather. already there in central park, getting ready for the concert. good morning, sam. happy friday. >> good morning, everybody. nice to see you. it's steamy in the park. and by the way, that whole situation in minnesota, a big part of the state coming in with nine, ten inches of rain in two days in that duluth area. real bad situation there. still recovering from the flooding there. are you ready to break the heat?

>> i don't regret falling in love. and i don't regret loving him. nor do i regret our daughter. >> reporter: a chance encounter in a new york hotel in 2006 started it all. >> he rounded the street corner. and it came out of my mouth, you're so hot. >> reporter: that was the first step toward an invitation that would change both their fates. he invited you to his hotel room. why did you go?

>> we could not get enough of each other on the telephone. if we were not together, we would be talking on the phone about four hours, every night. we couldn't hang up. >> reporter: any doubts she had about sleeping with a married man were helped, hunter says, by his insistence that his storybook marriage with elizabeth was just that. a story. >> their marriage was ruined years before i got there. >> reporter: he tells you something about his personal life that makes it very clear that he's available. >> he has other relationships. >> reporter: he tells you there have been other women in his life? >> yes. i was not the first. >> reporter: then, while edwards is hot on the campaign trail, hunter discovers, she's pregnant with their now 4-year-old daughter, francis quinn. what was the birth of the baby like? >> difficult and incredible. you know, it's like the polar opposite of the pain and agony. oh, my god, how difficult it is. but the blessing that comes out of that, amazing. >> reporter: he sits down. he does an interview with our bob woodruff. and he lies. >> i know that it's not possible that this child could be mine because of the timing of events. >> that was devastating. what it meant, though, to me is that he was temporarily insane. i mean, he had really gone off the deep end a bit there. it was painful to witness. >> reporter: some point, they want you to sign a confidentiality agreement, that you will not tell anybody who the father is, except quinn. >> yes. and i refused. i don't want my daughter growing up under a lie. >> reporter: but perhaps the most controversial part of the book is what hunter chooses to say about edwards' late wife, elizabeth. how she was using her cancer and her children as weapons in a war against a father, trying to take care of his daughter. what do you think the reaction is when the woman who is sleeping with the husband starts talking about the wife who is now dead from cancer? >> it's -- there's a lot of people that will go, wow, i understand. i get it. and there will be a lot of people that will be outraged. the full truth has good and bad in it. and i feel for both my daughter and for all the kids involved, the full truth needs to be in the public domain. their father's not a demon and their mother is not a saint. and i'm not a homewrecker. we're real human beings. there was a real dynamic going on, good and bad. and we all made mistakes. >> i hear your judgments. i feel your judgments. and i know this is the type of situation that brings it out in all of us. but remember, there were so many decisions made here. there was a case. there was a federal prosecution. and rielle hunter can connect the dots and explain the motivations in a way no one else can. and one good bit out of all of this is francis quinn. everyone will get to meet her tonight. >> did you get a sense from her what her relationship is like today with john edwards? >> the question is so penetrating i must answer. i cannot go against robin roberts. we do discuss it, obviously. here's what i think is interesting. many believe that rielle hunter is just unfailingly apologetic for john edwards. that's not true. there is a line. and when a woman becomes a mother, a new person is born. they're future is based on that. and we'll talk about it. >> i still got it. i still got it. >> i can't say no. i'm looking at you. i can't. should have had josh ask me. >> and we will be watching tonight. you'll see all of chris' exclusive interview with rielle hunter tonight. and she'll join us live next week. >> we'll be waiting anxiously. >> i'm never washing this hand, by the way. all right, sam. i need a little love. let's go to you in the park. what do you got?
