National water day today. There will be clouds around, but eventually some sunshine. Bus stop buddy has temperatures in the fours, but you see, it is back to the winter jacket and the gloves. Because you will need them later on. When youre coming home from school or whatever you are doing later this afternoon. Were inbetween the system to the south and the cold front thats coming through, and you can see the coal air already around the great lakes with that lake effect snow. We had little bit every rain to the south. Thats pretty much out of here. So were focusing on temperature and wind. 46 degrees. 15mile an hour winds out of the northwest. Sunrise, 7 01. And other temperatures are starting to drop. They were in the 40s to the north and west every us. Now they are in the 30s, so plan on that sunday shine today. But also plan on chilly temperatures. In fact, even though we will probably settle at about 40 degrees in afternoon, bob kelly, it will feel lick it is in the 20s. Big argument today will be with the kids whether you should wear your coat or not. Because it was so nice yesterday, they probably didnt wear their coat home. It is at school. Youre trying to find it this morning. Bottom line it is chilly out. Make sure you got your coat on, kids bundled up. Live look at frankford avenue at girard avenue in the neighborhood.

Is ellen there . No, shes not. 6 03. The citys top prosecutor set to be arraigned today. District attorney Seth Williams facing long list of charges. Our steve keeley at the federal courthouse with more this morning, steve . Reporter yes, dont expect a long walk into the courtroom to go along with that longlines of charges. Weve seen a lot of the politicians sadly that have been charged and even convicted of charges recently, Walking Around the streets here, going into court, and we get a good look at them. We get chance to ask them questions. But Seth Williams has not resigned. We dont know if he plans to resign. Again, it is only been 13 hours since the charges were made public. But if hes still in office, that means he still has his sex your at this officers, security detail, unmark vehicles, and that means they likely have permission to go in the un grounds ramp through the security area here to get underground and get into the building that way and get out of the builds that way. So the only glimpse well likely see of him is the media and the public thats going to go into the courtroom for the arraignment today if all goes as expected. The other thing, michael diamondsteen, his did he defender, would not say whether or not he rejected a plea deal offer from the feds before they made the announcement about the indictment yesterday. In order to conceal his corrupt relationship with Business Owner number one and Business Owner number two, mr. Williams filed false and misleading publicly required personal Financial Statements for the years 2012 through 2015. Which he intentionally omitted any reference to the money, the vacation to punta cana, the airline flights, the couch, the jaguar convertible, and the other things of value he received from Business Owner number one, and business wner number two. After, and only after, mr. Williams learned of the federal investigation, he amended those Financial Disclosure statements to include many of the items listed in the indictment. However, even then, he never disclosed his receipt of the jaguar. Well, the case observers really expected charges to come from the long list of 160,000 of gift that the District Attorney finally made public just few months ago. But what they did not expect was that the list of gifts was way longer, and included that convertible import sports car, check for p thousand dollars in cash, and likely the most stunning and disturbing of all, taking the pension and Social Security payments for his mothers nursing home care that suburb reporter mike noll reports this morning in his column. Then the family and friends that raised 10,000 to cover the cost of the missing pension and Social Security money taken, the feds charge that the da then stole that money, too. That for sure for everybody looking at this case was the most startling revelation of all yesterday. I mean 50 pages, so much in there, text messages, everything he will. Thank you steve for breaking some that far down. We went to the d. A. s offers yesterday. He wasnt there. We got this statement instead. It says the da is not in the office today because eggs spending time with his family. I ask that you respect his privacy and the privacy of the men and women of the office.

Williams diverted his relatives pension and Social Security payments, to himself to pay for his own personal expenses instead of applying to nursing home expenses cents as he was obligated to do. William simply took monday that i did not belong to him. Then he lied about it. Well, just last thursday, the District Attorney made his chief of staff his acting First Assistant because his last one quit to run for the office himself in the may primary. But now Kathleen Martin would become the actual District Attorney suddenly should the da resign, many expect hell stay on as long as he can to keep that 175,500dollar salary, since hes so financially strapped, and maybe the reason he got into this mess to begin with. Remember that the Pennsylvania State attorney general, kathleen cane stayed on long after her indictment, and even after her law license was suspended a lot of people figure that the people who were in charge of whether or not pooch can stay on, keep their law license, will likely get together and try to remove Seth Williams from office that way if he doesnt quit himself.

One family so much so that they decided to file a lawsuit against the School District.

The Legal Council representing the family on behalf of the Alliance Defending freedom says the school is violating privacy right.
