Pressure continues to grow to change the name of the Washington Redskins. A native american tribe is fighting against a name it considers racist. Devoted fans say it represents decades of tradition as well. Here is kai jackson with more. The Washington Redskins have a rich and storied history. Its an 81yearold franchise with three super bowl championships. The term is a dictionary defined racial term. The team and star players like Robert Griffin the third may be over shadowed by growing calls to change the teams name. Many many consider the name and mascot on the helmet offensive to native americans. Members of the nation met in washington tuesday to talk about it. Owner Dan Schneider has been quoted as saying he would never change the teams name. History is littered with people who said they would never change. Nfl commissioner Roger Goodell grew up as a fan of the team and never considered it offensive. Whenever you have a situation like this you have to listen. Even president obama has weighed in. If it had a storied history that was offending a sizable group of people i would think about changing it. Indians are not mascots. The calls for the redskins to change their name could be significant. Dennis seymour believes that might be one reason it wont happen soon. When you talk about the funds involved with a Large Organization like that im not sure we will see it. Members are scheduled to meet with the nfl november 22nd. Its now believed that meeting could take place sooner. Im kai jackson reporting. Back to you. Thank you. It is unclearthe team own er if the team owner will attend that meter.

More tough words from the white house and Republican Leaders in congress as negotiations stall in washington dc. As Susan Mcginnis reports for wjz, both sides are digging in and theres no end in sight. The bodies of four american Service Members killed in the line of duty this weekend arrive at Dover Air Force base today. The government would typically pay for the families to fly to delaware to witness the return of their loved ones. That money is now on hold, a casualty of the Government Shutdown. Im embarrassed. All of us should be is. Families of 17 Service Members have already been denied benefits, including a 100,000 payment due within 36 hours of death. Death gratuity is extended to help cover funeral costs and help with immediate living expenses. The house is expected to vote today to restore those benefits. An agreement to end the shutdown is still nowhere in site. Its pretty much the same thing every day. Were not getting anywhere between each side. President obama warned republicans he would not negotiate until congress reopens the government and raises the debt ceiling. We cant make extortion routine as part of our democracy. Republicans say first democrats must agree to spending cuts. We cant raise the debt ceiling without doing something about whats driving us to borrow more money and live beyond our means. The Treasury Department said it will run out of money to pay its pills on october 17th is. In washington, Susan Mcginnis. Theyre warning a u. S.

The woman who had been beaten went to a Carroll County fire station for help. Just a day before another woman called Howard County police with a similar story. She claims 29yearold gary maddox and 27yearold Amina Phillip kidnapped her in rhode island and forced her to have sex for money in various states over three days. The couple was arrested. In both cases the suspects were advertising on the website backpage. Com to try and solicit customers. Its becoming more and more concerning for law enforcement. It really is a coincidence that in each of these individual and separate situations that website was used in both cases. Victims advocates say sex trafficking is a growing problem in maryland. For every girl or boy found theres another 100. The government held classes on how to prosecute sex trafficking cases. It has been reported in nearly every maryland county. Reporter police say this may be more common than you think. They have one detective that only does Human Trafficking cases. Im mike schuh reporting live. Back to you. Thank you.

A young Anne Arundel County could be facing years in prison because police say she was texting while driving. Derek valcourt will explain, witnesses say she was is looking down at her phone moments before the fatal accident. 30yearold Jonathan Wesley roberts of virginia was a father, brother and son who loved riding his motorcycle. March 10th he was riding north on route 3. Thats when then 19yearold Elizabeth Hailey meyers drove her car into his path as she tried to cross route 3 to get to the royal farms. Roberts died in the accident. The Anne Arundel County states attorney said they can prove meyers was texting while driving. We have an eyewitness who was walking in the area. He saw her driving with one hand on the wheel and the other hand looking down and texting. We also have cell phone records which confirm she was texting. Meyers now faces several charges, including negligent manslaughter. Shes getting little sympathy from fellow drivers. She deserves it. She deserves to get in trouble for something. She killed a guy. Texting. Come on. Your hands, eyesight is being used at the same time. You cant do that. The charges come days after the newest distracted driving laws take effect that makes it illegal to text while driving or talking on a phone. This is a big wake up call to everyone to knock it off,put the phone down and drive your car. Shes convicted Elizabeth Meyers faces the possibility of up to 10 years in prison and pay thousands in fines. Derek valcourt, wjz Eyewitness News.

You dont write in the same room, right . No, we cant. Tell them why. We talk too much. Even if he comes to north if i go to North Carolina or he comes to delaware we work in separate rooms. Were accustomed to it. It works better that way. I understand as a son you could ramp this thing up into a professor relationship but a mother is always a mother. I know when he calls me caroline instead of mom that i better pay attention. The story is itself is just absolutely fascinating. It is unusual when we go to conferences and make that you know, when you first get on the train or plane or wherever to go away for events you start mentally making that transition.
