Peggy fox is live at the federal courthouse with more on how things are getting started. Peg . Reporter mike, its a packed courtroom inside. We have lots of media in there. We have many family members of the mcdonnell and of course just the curious all listening to Opening Statements. This morning once again we saw separate arrivals between these for defendants. First former governor Bob Mcdonnell walked in flanked by his attorneys. This is a strategy. Remember, these two people are being tried together but they have separate legal teams and those strategies macon flict. In fact, today may conflict. In fact today the judge made a point of telling the jury to never forget that there are two defendants with separate considerations. Then Maureen Mcdonnell walked in this morning a few minutes after Bob Mcdonnell. The prosecution first outlined the case going over what they believe was a quid pro quo. They say that the mcdonnells used the power of the Governors Office to enrich themselves, to line their pockets and accepted more than 150,000 in loans and gifts from wealthy businessman Jonny Williams. The loans totaled 220,000. They showed a few emails back and forth between both Bob Mcdonnell and Jonny Williams. They also showed one picture of Bob Mcdonnell in Jonny Williamss ferrari that they had the use of when they were on vacation at Smith Mountain lake. Theyre also saying that the mcdonnells tried to help promote a product, a Vitamin Supplement and this they tried to arrange meetings with Jonny Williams, that they did arrange meetings and tried to help him get that pill under research at virginia universities, uva and bcu. That didnt happen but there was an attempt, the prosecution says. The so the prosecution finished up and now when i just got out of the courtroom, it was Maureen Mcdonnells defense team with their Opening Statements and they tried to shoot down the prosecutions case and said look, this all hinges on Jonny Williams and hes changed his story nine different times they said. Which version are you going to believe . So its been very interesting so far and im sure a little bit later well hear from Bob Mcdonnells defense team and ill have more coming up at 5 00 this evening. Im peggy fox reporting live.

Reporter police say this is where it all started here at the intersection of 71st and annapolis road. Police say a man carjacked another person in an suv. Then when the suspect tried to get away in that suv, they hit a mini van. That minivan chased after the suv up annapolis road to the mcdonalds.

I just wanted to do the best thing for the family and everybody else. Reporter she plans to sell to former ceo of microsoft steve ballmer. She took control after doctors confirmed he has alzheimers.

Reporter they dolled out bigger infractions for alleged sexual assault, dogfighting or even accidentally shooting yourself in the leg. First repeated [ inaudible ] amid an uproar the punishment was too lenient. The Commissioners Authority in this case doesnt provide for a particular feeling on what he could do. However, we are bound in large part by precedent in prior cases. I dont think its as particularly appropriate to sort of weigh each case against itself on all its facts. Reporter but his answers had the host of espns mike mike show befuddled. I dont think it was a tough message at all. At all for domestic violence. To be completely honest i do not feel that most people listening to that discussion feel they got annual adequate explanation of how they arrived at two games. Reporter the fallout went beyond the n. F. L. [ inaudible ] he would advise women to, quote, avoid provoking men. Ive done this all my life. Lets make sure we dont do anything to provoke wrong actions. Reporter that sparked outrage, even from coworkers at espn. Smith posted an apology online. I ventured beyond the scope of our discussion but alluding to a womans role in such heinous matters going so far as to use the word provoke in my diatribe. My words came across that it is somehow a womans fought. This was not my intent. That was jan crawford reporting there. Cbs news asked the n. F. L.

So imagine, what if there was a new class of medicine that works differently to lower blood sugar . Imagine, loving your numbers. Introducing oncedaily invokana®. Its the first of a new kind of prescription medicine thats used along with diet and exercise to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Invokana® is a oncedaily pill that works around the clock to help lower a1c. Heres how the kidneys allow sugar to be absorbed back into the body. Invokana® reduces the amount of sugar allowed back in, and sends some sugar out through the process of urination. And while its not for weight loss, it may help you lose some weight. Invokana® can cause important side effects, including dehydration, which may cause some people to have loss of body water and salt. This may also cause you to feel dizzy, faint, lightheaded, or weak especially when you stand up. Other side effects may include kidney problems, genital yeast infections, urinary tract infections, changes in urination, high potassium in the blood, or increases in cholesterol. Do not take invokana® if you have severe kidney problems or are on dialysis or if allergic to invokana® or its ingredients. Symptoms of allergic reaction may include rash, swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop taking invokana® and call your doctor right away or go to the nearest hospital. Tell your doctor about any medical conditions, medications you are taking, and if you have kidney or liver problems. Using invokana® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may increase risk of low blood sugar. Its time. Lower your blood sugar with invokana®. Imagine loving your numbers. Ask your doctor about invokana®. Our guest today at noon is scott thinkleburg and hes shinkleburg and hes on a mission. Hes out to make sure people who were homeless dont slip back into homelessness. For people not familiar with miriams kitchen, tell us a little bit about it . It was start 30d years ago to serve home 30 years ago to serve homeless men and women. Over the years its evolved to provide not only meals but long term social services to engage people in housing, make sure that once they get into housing, they stay in housing. And one of the things youre talking about is trying to get them some Mental Health services too. Yes. So many of the folks that come to miriams kitchen are people that have been living on the street for years. One of the contributing factors to that is usual Mental Health issues. Where does miriams kitchen come in . It started as a food program. Are counselors on board to try to help . Absolutely. The meals are obviously a need for People Living out on the street. The counselors are really a part of that developing the trust and relation trusting relationships with our guests, getting them the services they need, whether it be Mental Health services, Substance Abuse services, employment services, whatever the case s. Living on the street is tough. Not having a network of Resources Available is really hard. Imagine that all of us need our family, our friends, our coworkers to help us get through the day.
