Like stepping back in time. How many times you and i go over to cuba lane here Second Street in old city, we say to barry the guy who owns the place, will you take us to cuba. Yes, we want to go. Now we will go through the eyes of joyce evans in a little bit. Awesome. Well, we have noncuba weather, thats for sure, on the way. It is going to be very cold. So enjoy this last day of normalcy for temperatures, seven out every ten, in your weather by the numbers, bus stop buddy off to a cold start. Of course hes bundled up, sixers cap on today. They plant tonight at the wells fargo center. Now, we have little bit of lake effect snow with cold air moving across lake erie, and ontario. But for us nothing as far as precipitation is concerned, in fact, it is pretty sunrise, 7 15 the official sunrise time. It is 35 degrees, but we have enough after wind that it feels like 29 out there. And wind chills are mostly in the 20s, out there there is morning. So, keep that in mine with the sunshine. Could deceive you little bit. But it is at least going to be seasonable today at 42 degrees, down in the 20s, tonight, with few snow showers along with the cold air rolling in. Now, we may see snow squawl or two overnight. But, we already have a problem on the roads this morning, bob kelly. Where . Good morning, 7 02, live look at the blue route, 476 southbound, look at the three cars all piled up here, one guy got t bone here, spun around, this is the southbound lanes at exit number five, which is lima springfield. See the tractortrailer, only the far right shoulder is getting on bye. And this is impacting the southbound lanes so anyone leaving king of prussia saint davids area, headed south down toward Philadelphia International airport, gridlock with only the far right shoulder getting on by. Soap, thats going to cause delays for folks headed down to the airport this morning. Crossing town on the vine street expressway, bumper to bumper to bumper from broad street all the way over into 30th street. That fire location, we told you about earlier this morning, just off of route 47, which is the delsea drive at howard, with some local detours, otherwise mass transit looking good. Mike and alex back to you. Bob, 7 03 this wednesday. Two men are dead and two separate shootings, just hours apart in frankford. One guy, somebody really wanted this guy dead, they shot him 28 times. At least 27 bullets hit his body. Steve on the story over at the round house, steve . Reporter yes, mike, just when homicide detectives thought they had seen it all, something new crops up despite investigating maybe 3,000 murders in their career already. No one ever shot this many times, in anybodys memory here at the rounds house. Lets go to the video. It happened just a few hours ago, just past midnight. Right here adams avenue, a very nice residential street there. In fact, this man shot and killed this man, who was killed, had somebody standing over him, firing so many shot, the shells rolled alongside his body, lying next to his body almost like a chalk outline. We know total of 28 shots were fired, from a large caliber semiautomatic weapon. We found 28 spent shell casings around the victims body. Many of the shell casings were just inches away from the victims body. So it appears that this was clearly an execution type homicide due to the fact there were so many shots fired, the fact that the balistic evidence is so close to the victim, and the fact that the victim was struck numerous times. Well, if you thought if a that was brazen how about the murder just beforehand, just blocks away and just about four and a half hours before this, right in the parking lot of a busy 7eleven, right in prime time at quarter after 7 00 last night, and as you see the 7eleven, right outside the market frankford elevated train tax, surveillance cameras for septa, the store, and for surrounding businesses, no deterents at all, so two guys, two guns, who shot at two other guys, and then took off in a car, killed one of the guys, and critically wounded the other. Police right on the scene within moments, driving both to nearby hospital, but only able to save one, who was critical at last check, and had no identification on the first guy, simply, because he had no wallet or id on him. What a violent night it was, in that one section every town in frankford within about a eight block square area. Wild. All right, 7 05. New this morning, firefighters about the g out hot spots, home in Gloucester County new jersey, skyfox over the scene on west Howard Street in clayton. We do not know about any injuries. But we will keep you updated as information becomes available. And cobbs creek, man killed when his car just, went out of control, slams noop a parked car, and a tree. Emergency crews racing to the scene, at 58th street and baltimore avenue. Just after midnight. The 52 year old died at the hospital, short time later. Now, lets get back to this trial now. It was explosive day yesterday. Pretrial hearing for bill cosby Sexual Assault trial. Yes, cameras were not allowed in the courtroom, much to my shagrin, because i would like to have heard these attorneys actually screaming so loud at each other that the judge had to step in basically and say dont make me bring in more deputies. Now, with a was the main argument about . I know the prosecution wants to have 11 former accusers, testify, and cosbys attorneys, no, no, no, this is about one case. Exactly what the argument was over, shouting match inside the courtroom, not really what you expect from lawyers on both sides, so the judge says im going to call in more deputies if you cannot maintain some type of decor up in my courtroom. Even bill cosby was a little different than weve seen him in the past. Hes been very slow and quiet, suffering with vision and memory problems. Well the 79 year old was yelling out in the courtroom yesterday, on several different occasions, even when the questions werent directed at him, at this Pretrial Hearing prosecute remembers trying to prove cosby had history of drugging and molesting young women. All of this started when former temple employee Andrea Constand filed a complaint against cosby, once her friend and mentor, over encounter at his home near philadelphia. Prosecutors say there are dozens of other women who have the exact same stories, and they should be allowed to testify in this spring trial, to prove that cosby has prior bad act. Celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred represent many of those women. If, in fact, there was a plan, a scheme, a design, to incapacitate victims and then because they were unable to consent or not consent having been incapacitated, they could then be sexually assaulted because they were vulnerable. Then that would be arced as relevant. Thats whats important. Thats why the testimony of these witnesses could be considered to be important. So to answer your question earlier, prosecutors were clashing with the defense lawyers very earl knit hearing, about using those womens names in an effort to intimidate the women. The judge ultimately ruled, cosbys lawyers could identify is one of those women by name 11 every those women by name since they already shared their stories publicly, few other have not quite come out yet. Well, all red established cost bee established 100 million Settlement Funds for these sexual allegations, well see what happens today in court, it is day two, and pretty exciting yesterday, well see how today plays out. See if that ruling comes down today. I think it probably will. All right, lauren, thank you. Well, allen thick died yesterday. Yes, alan thicke, at the age of 69, he had a heart attack at an ice rink, playing hockey, i know his son, 19 year old son was playing who can which him at the time. Thomas we know he was a big hockey began for sure. Apparently his last words to his son according to his middle childs robin was, he told his son, great shot. Then he suddenly collapsed. Show me that smile again, goes back to 1987. Tuesday night, certainly, the time to watch growing pains. He was known as the father. He played jason receiver, and sadly as we mentioned he died living to up his role life role as a father. Tms reported he had a heart attack while playing who can which his son. We mentioned his son, middle child, robin thicke, very famous singer, hes pictured here, youre to see, with his dad and his brother, carter. Well have that in a moment. Meanwhile, tributes are pouring in, john legend tweeting i grew up watching him so sad to hear about his passing. Also, in another tweet, broadway star, remembers alan thicke as a great songwriter. Definitely defined by his childhood. I spoke with his son robin thicke several years ago, he said he remembered his father as being the perfect gentleman because he treated everyone with respect. In fact, he posted on instagram about his father saying my father passed away today. He was the best manny ever new, the best friends i ever had. Lets all rejoice and celebrate the joy he brought to every room he was in. We love you, alan thicke. Thank you for your love, love your grateful son, robin. And they were very close. Very close. He post that overnight. About 3 00 in the morning, matter of fact. Said he look to up his father. He followed in his footsteps as far as his musical career. Yes. In fact, alan, he was on instagram and twitter, he tweeted out something about 13 hours ago, matter of fact, before he started playing the game. All right, people in philadelphia pause today to remember one of the nations worse school shootings. Today marks four years since the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. A gunman killed 20 student, and six teachers. So, leaders in Chestnut Hill will host prayer circle at the presbyterian church. On display will be 26 large and small tshirts, each bearing victims names and ages. Very young ages, most of them. Meanwhile, newtown concetti plans moment of silence to mark the exact time the shooting began. City employees have been told not to do any work this morning, between 9 30 and 9 45. The 20 year old gunman responsible for that massacre, later killed himself, as you remember. 7 12. Now to the latest on the trump transition. Yes, more key decisions from president elect donald trump. Hes making some more big Jobs Available her, rick perry, will be what, doug lou saider . Energy secretary. And perry announcement came down just about an hour ago. We new this was going to happen. There had been all kinds of leaks about this. But technically sent the press release just little while ago, they do intends to nominate him. Still has to get through the senate and all. This was not a surprise watch is a surprise, sometimes, is how see walking through the doors at trump tower. Donald trump continues what he calls his thank you tour in wisconsin last night. But he couldnt ignore say the unusual combination of people, who have been showing up at trump tower. Headlined by performer kanye west. Bill yates, anna winter, kanye, thats right. I like kanye. What was kanye west really doing at trump tower . He said on twitter that the topics ranged from bullying to violence in chicago. At the other end of the spectrum, there was bill gates. We had good conversation about innovation, how it can hepp education. And gates, as well as other tech leaders from apple, facebook, google among others, will meet with trump today to drill down on issues affecting that industry. And the overall domestic economy will loom large today as women. The Federal Reserve expected to hike interest rates, and the markets continuing to climb. The dow poised to set new record, possibly crossing the 20,000 threshold. Trump returning to language from the campaign trail. My administration will be focused on three very important words jobs, jobs, jobs. Domocrats bracing forbath l over some of exxon mobile rex hiller son secretary every state. And there are more calls for investigations into russias alleged involvement in the president ial campaign. We mention rick perry getting the nod this morning, you add him to the mix, here, this is how the cabinet is shaping up. Veterans affairs, ago, and interior, although it seems as though trump folks are getting close to naming montana congressman, ryan cinco for interior secretary. So, theyre moving it a pretty good clip here. But getting folks confirmed in the senate. I like the graphic you have up behind you, and then there were three spots left. Like american idol. The mystery silhouette. So the confirmations come after the inauguration . What a cliffhanger. Oh,. Also, too, we need to mention there were activities from trump tower, food balance legend jim brown went there, and ray lewis, they had a meeting. I said he fell in love with trump, remember he voted for Hillary Clinton during the election and all of that. In love with trump, and he really respects the fact how he was treated, you know, campaign season, and the fact hes taken that, making it worse despite the fact in one believed in it, feels there is a connection there. One of the greatest Football Players that ever played in the game. Jim brown. He talked about africanamerican issues, try to do so many programs to help africanamericans, so we want to make sure trump has a focus on that, as well. We shall see. Perfect transition. Thats the new head coach. The man is a defensive coordinator, really good Football School, florida, jeff collins is his name, jeff, has been a coach for 22 years and hes finally getting his head coaching job here in north philadelphia. Hes with florida geathers for the last two years, and both years florida had a top ten defense in america. Sean bryce had been studding this guy, sean, welcome back. Defense for the last six years, has been tearing it up last two years, top ten defenses, for the university of florida. If you look at what recall has been known for, defense, guy knows how to recruit. There is in to the ballgame when it comes to being head coach in college, you have to go into the living room of the 16, 17, 18 year old gentleman, and i am press mom and dad. And you have to say to them im not from a school that is in a warm weather climate. Im in a big city of philadelphia and were not exactly real a big name in football. Starting to be, though. Starting to be. Yes. Convince him to come here. The best programs ever been in history, you know, backtoback, ten win seasons, ya. And just tough. Because a lot of temple fans are upset because matt rhule is leaving after four years, but the fact is he won the conference, like i said, ten win seasons backtoback, whats he get . He gets no disrespect, military bull versus wake forest. So, you know, they had to make matt rhule, they got themselves a really good coach there. Go to smaller school, Football School like this, and you do well, you want to go onto a big Football School. Not in the pour five conference, just how it is, football chance to change it up, expand 18 playoffs, give some of the small conferences maybe one, two spots, you never know, but until that happens, nothing will change. So former coach matt rhule put out this statement. Jeff collins, the new guy, is the Perfect Choice to be the head football coach at Temple University. Jeff is a pre mends us person with a brilliant defensive mind. Hes relentless recruiter. He will always put the players first, im so excited that he and jennifer are coming to philadelphia, and know that he will lead temple into a brilliant and successful future as i have to be stuck in wako texas.

Maybe get him like a coat or something . Cheese steak and tom collins. Hey, temple, i thought temple would give villanova the Number One Team in the nation last night in basketball. They are good. Pot point, yelling about there this, he disagreed with me, i think this team might be little better than last year. What . Yes. Obviously i know archie, on the squad last year.

The arts reflect bit of culture all over the globe, all with a twist every cuban flare, yep, an original piece may cost you less than 50 bucks. But nothing screams classic america more than cruising around in one of these grand old cars. Nothing new err than 1959, of course. Most of them have been meticulously maintained, or restored, many of them, taxi. Well, welcome back. All colorful, like the cars. Got a little tan. Yes. So . So it was fantastic. The people were great. Things were fairly inexpensive. Once you find out, you know, of course when you first go somewhere, you get the top shelf everything you really dont need that, but it was great. We had good time. Everybody was very, very friendly. Well it was an interesting time to be there, because fidel castro, just died. He had died, and these are americans taking pictures with the huge cuban flag, and it was like the end of the morning period, so we were there the last three days.

I know not to talk politics. Im on vacation. So, you know . I know you mention were you in some of the areas that hadnt been restored yet. I hear there is still a lot of it thats still i mean what was that like. Look at this building right here, just off the old square. And theyre working on that one, the architecture is phenominal a lot of these buildings are four, five and down in trinidad, cuba, 700 years old. So, you know, they need to restore them.

Thank you very much. 8 04, cameras were not allowed in the courtroom there norristown, Montgomery County courthouse today. Reporters told us what they heard in there, shouting match, that really started right at the beginning of the pretrial. Lauren with a recap of what happened in that courtroom. Instead of boys behaving badly, lawyers yelling loudly inside the courtroom here in Montgomery County. All of the bing erring over publicizing the name of the dozen of women accusing cosby every Sexual Assault. His lawyers do not want the women to be allowed to testify at his spring trial. The high steaks hearing, was very eventful yesterday, from the very start, lawyers from both sides were heated, over accusations from the other side, about the womens names, cosbys defense team says many of those women have already gone public with their accusations, the lead lawyer in the case saying their witness that is trial, not children. So all of the back and forth, over whether they should testify in the trial against cost bee, which started over an incident a decade ago. Then, Temple University employee, Andrea Constand, filed a complaint against her friend, and mentor, over an encounter at his home. Authorities reopened the case, late last year, when a lot more women came forward, many of them represented by celebrity attorney all red. Last week she said her client have a duty to testify if the court wants to hear from them. And she says dismissal out every context and really just plane wrong. Cosby again yesterday in rare form, both in and out of the courtroom. You heard them joking with the deputy coming in saying dont taze me bro. Very different from what weve seen in the past, find out today in day two of the hearing what the judge thinks about all of this. Mike and alex. Good set up there. Lets get to Gloria Allred right now representing some of these accusers and gloria, were do you think it is there first welcome back, why do you think these women have a duty to testify . Thanks, mike, great to be home in philadelphia where i grew up. They do have a duty to testify if in fact they are subpoenaed to testify. This is hotly contested theory. The defense under stands how difficult it would be, the prosecution case, if, in fact, all or some are permitted to testify, because, the whole issue in this case did Andrea Constand consent to sexual contact with mr. Cost bee . Shy said she dont consent because she was incapacitated, gave her three pills. And of course it is important to the prosecution. To prove absence of mistake, now she couldnt consent because there is a pattern, common scheme, a design, to incapacitate other accusers to drugs, through alcohol, through combination of drugs, and alcohol in some cases. And of course if someone is doing that to women, they know they cant consent to sexual activity. And tree a constants case, this is her versus cosby, dont bring in all of the other women because this is her specific situation . Yes, to show there is a pattern what we call signature, because other accusers would testify, to remarkably similar conduct, and switch in on them by mr. Cosby, and thats why the defense does not want them to be able to testify. Is this common thing to do, to go back to other cases and bring them forward years late near specific case. Call prior bad act by the accused, and in california, where i live now, we also allow prior bad acts to come in if they are what we call a signature, in other words another way of saying it, lotus apperandi, mo, same, similar, remarkably similar to whats alleged. Always within the discretion of the court, whats in the discretion of the judge to decide if those act, prior alleged prior bad act, may be in fact testified to by other. In other words, the defense will say well thats more prejudicial than probative. The prosecution would argue it is more probative, more likely, to help the jury, know the truth, as the prosecution attempts to prove it, and so it is important to allow it in. Okay, women, gloria, we have a question, hearing all of these reports about the climate of the courtroom yesterday. There was a screaming match. What was it like sitting in that courtroom and hearing all of that back and forth . Well, there was quite a bit of tension, and youre right, there was a lot of shouting going on. And that is a sign that the prosecution feels very strongly about what they were saying, they were saying that the defense has tried to put the names of the prior bad act witnesses up on the screen, and the prosecution says it is unnecessary to provide the names of the accusers that in their motion, they didnt provide the names of other alleged so what did he rule . And mr. Cosbys attorneys saying, look being some of them went public, why cant we give their names at this point . Some of them never went public. Okay, but if you are going to accuse me, i think i kind of want to know your name. Thats right. If, in fact, they testify at trial, yes. They will. Then their names will be given. At this point, mr. Cosbys lawyers do know the names of all 13. The issue should they be made public . He has a right to know them. How do you know if the judge rules it is okay . Of course anyone subpoenaed has duty to testify. I remember some of the accused accusers, mr. Cosby, and all that i represent sent, im not saying how many, but the defense says ten out of the 13, im not commenting but all that i represent sent will be willing to testify, that is their duty. If they are subpoenaed, and they under stands they will be grilled by mr. Cosbys attorneys. But, you know, they have duty to cooperate in the process. Yes. And it could be public, depending on what the judge rules. Do you think the judge will rule on this today . Thats authorities say. In the past for all of the motions he has not ruled at that time, hes given written opinion, finding of fact, conclusions of law, in other words, the reasons why he reaches the decision that he has so it may be he wont rule today, on the other hand mable. It is a cliffhanger a and maybe the most significant decision in this case except for his motion to dismiss which of course was denied. Gloria, always good to see you. You too, mike, thank youment. So if the judge decides that hell let these 11 women, at least 11 women testify against him, a lot of people are thinking cosby will cut a deal then. Will do plea deal . Just too much evidence against him, cut a deal where i admit did i it, dont make me go to jail. Be interesting to see what it will be like in a courtroom today, hey, do i need to bring in more people in here because you guys are getting out of control yelling, screaming how the move will be this morning. d bunch of deputies ready to go and throw everybody down. People are hating on hillary. Not Hillary Clinton, hillary duff thee is kissing her four year old son. Looks like theyre at an amusement park.
