Bill cosby faces disturbing new Sexual Misconduct allegations this morning. A california woman filed a lawsuit tuesday saying he molested her when she was 15. Shes the first of cosbys recent accusers to take her claim to court. Vinita nair is here with a report and a rare interview from bill cosby. She and her friend met bill cosby on a set 40 years ago. He asked her how old she was. He invited them to his tennis club. After they met he asked them to follow him to a nearby house. According to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by cbs this morning, it was at the house where cosby played games of billiards with 15yearold julie huth while serving alcoholic beverages to her and her 16yearold friend. He told them he had a surprise for them. He led them to the playboy mansion. He said if anybody asked how old they were to say they were 19. He led them to a bathroom in a bedroom suite and when she emerged she found crosby sitting on the bed. He attempted to put his hand down her pants and then took his hand and perform add sed a sex himself. Huth claimed she suffered significant damage and a life long effect. No criminal charges have ever been filed against the comedian, although he settled a civil lawsuit out of court in 2006. Cosbys attorneys have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and cosby himself has tried to remain tightlipped about the accusations but last night in a rare tweet since the recent allegations began he wrote, thank you. Whoopi goldberg. She had expressed skepticism over allegations made by Barbara Bowman in november. I hope there is justice for this lady. I hope to get to the bottom of this. Im going to reserve my judgment because i have a lot of questions. We reached out to judy huth and bill cosby. Neither has responded. Last monday he resigned from temple university. Thank you. This morning the National Guard is cutting back troops. They rejected critical charges in the Michael Brown killing. Browns stepfather is now under investigation for his angry response that niece. Police say louis head powe ten clal faces charging of inciting a riot secretary of defense Charles Hagel plans to retear. Ashton carter is up next. Bill plante at the pentagon. Good morning. Carters name is tonal one being considered and the announcement will probably come later this week. The white house wont confirm that carter is their nominee, only that hes on the list. But spokesman josh earnest praised him. Hes somebody who has previously served the administration as the deputy secretary of defense, a position he filled very ably r carter is a physicist who has held two top jobs at the pentagon during the Obama Administration. Serve bs previously as the undersecretary in charge of the weapons program. Though a civilian, hes seen as having the confidence of the departments military command. As a defense secretary he would face complex strategy questions about the fight against isis in syria and iraq, questions that humbled his predecessor chuck hagel. He told charlie rose earlier this year were not going to get a solution. I think our advisers will give us insight, influence there, but thats the most important benefit of having them there. Reporter carter was confirmed unanimously by the senate in his previous job and would likely do well again, but ted cruz and other republicans questioned whether the white house would allow anyone the freedom to do the job. It says something that somebody is saying no thank you i dont want to serve in the secretary of defense that overrides the Defense Department that is treated sub servantly. Very they say he would be able to hold his own. Hes got the vast experience of working with the pentagons huge bureaucracy, so hell be on top of that as well. For this white house, though, the best signal is both sides say he can be easily confirmed. Bill, thank you so much.

The Committee Members want the league and the unions to come up with uniform policies that deal with these problems that take into account due problems but also stress the fierce many victims have coming forward.

Good morning. Welcome. Whats your thought on the attack of sony . Its the sheer structure of it. Many are unfamiliar with companies that come in and try to destroy a company.

What can pleas do, brian, to protect themselves . I understand only some of the websites you saw shots of the executives with their bodies mutilated that we cant show on tv. Right.

The decision whether to charge as why Police Officer could come as early as today. They ruled an improper choke hold was the factor in the death of black suspect eric gaern. The case sparked protests of police use of force. Commissioner bill bratton is with us for an interview only on cbs this morning. He also led Police Departments in boston and los angeles. Welcome and good morning. Tell me how youre preparing for this grand jury decision and whether youre informed by the events in ferguson. Weve been preparing in multiple ways for months now. Weve been conducting a period throughout the city with a concentration in Staten Island as recently as monday and weve also been tactically preparing for resources dealing with any potentiality. You hope for the best and plan for the worst. People in new york as you know were very angry about the eric garner case. I know you said youre prepared, but do you think what happened in ferguson could happen here . We dont app anticipate that at all. We had a major demonstration in the course of the summer. 4,000 or 5,000 peaceful march. Weve had no events since. Its a Community Working very hard to ensure there are no problems when the decision finally comes down. Lets talk about the distrust between communities and police department. Thats what we saw in ferguson. There is a lots of anger and distrust and after the Michael Brown decision came down, you were splattered with blood on your face. How do you address Something Like that . How do you address what is that real anger and feeling by the community that the police treats them differently . The irony, what were dealing with in new york, is we have the people in the Community Living here and we have outsidage tarots here. For example, from utah. So hes one of the outside agitators whos seeking to take advantage of whats going on here. We spend a lot of time interacting with various communities in the city trying to build that trust. Its quite clear in many communities we dont have it for a variety of reasons. You say they tended to ferguson to see how to deal with this. What specifically did you learn . We had teams of detectives there to, one, take a look at who was there. There are quite a fewage tarots that were there in ferguson. None of those arrested were from new york. Theyre trying to keep an eye on them but also what new tactics might be employed by the professional agitators to gather what we could and bring it back to our experience. Haafter all youve done, wha worries you the most . Not so much the organized events but the disorganized, the spontaneous, somebody who is not prepared for it that just all of a sudden starting acting up in the neighborhood at gets a few going on. Their intent is to have orderly demonstrations. They dont want violence or vandalism but its the disorganized or the professional agitators of which we have no shortage here in new york. Weve tracked social media very aggressively. We have watched very closely the demonstrations over the last couple of weeks of any new initiatives, any new ways theyre trying to get their point across. We adjust their tactics to our tactics very frequently and try to anticipate to the best of ourability what theyre going to be. There was word that theyre going to train with body cams. What effect do you think that will have on the officers . Im very supportive of body cams. Well have a press conference later today around that and theyll be up and running the initial 50 by the weekend. Im very excited about that. Im a great supporter of technology and policing. Thing it will illuminate a lot of the he said she said where they dont have video. It will be a good thing. Im curious when you were splashed with the red paint, fake blood. You made light of it at the time. How affected were you. Were you angry, scared, does it make you to rethink things . I was angry, but, again, no vandalism, no violence, no crime, and this character out of nowhere comes out and throws what we believe was some type of artificial blood, paint sub stachbls splashed myself and Police Officers and people standing by. Totally unnecessary and fortunately hell be very aggressively prosecuted. Good to have you here, rikki kliemans husband. Shes sleeping in hopefully. Thats a good thing. Sitting behind a wheel .

Group is demanding saudi arabia release two women apparently detained after driving into the kingdom. The women from the United Arab Emirates were arrested monday just over the saudi arabia border. This Case Highlights the women in saudi arabia and elsewhere. Holly williams went there to see it for herself. She is with us now from lawn. Ho london. Holly, good morning. Good morning. Some saudi arabia women have been demanding the right to drive now for two decades. We went to saudi arabia to meet some of the women leading the driving campaign and we recognized driving is just a symbol of much bigger problems faced by saudi women. This is an antigovernment demonstration. The ultra conservative Islamic State is the only country in the world where women are banned from driving because the government refuses to give them licenses. In protest, dozens of saudi women have taken to the wheel and posted the evidence of their illegal road trips on the internet. During nearly two weeks in this closed off kingdom, we were accompanied by saudi officials to interview the women behind the driving campaign, we left our hotel at night and met with them in a private house. Madeha allage ruche is a woman we met with. Police were in total shock. They thought we were women from kuwait or different parts of the world. We couldnt possibly be saudi women. Saudi women are very quiet and they dont ask for their rights. Reporter she told us the biggest problem is the male guidance system. Every saudi woman needs a males approval to study, work, and travel outside the country. Whats it like having a male guardian . Its like your life is in a box. Reporter in saudi arabia theres widespread segregation including in schools, restaurants, and even some banks. D this doctor is a scholar who said driving would pose a threat to saudi society. There are manyishes that will somehow affect the eun tigs compassion with women to go outside. Women driving would be dangerous because it would give women too much freedom. Im saying were not against women but women are averse to this. Many in saudi arabia would agree with him but other saudis find the ban on women driving laughable. This viral internet video pokes fun at islam muslim clerics who claim driving could harm a womans reproductive organs. Did you think it was going to go viral . No. We talked about it at first and that was it. Reporter yet in a country with it can dangerous he stressed his comedy has no political motive. Its like somebody said a knockknock joke and a next thing you know a king is being overthrown. Thats not how it works. Reporter but the women behind the driving campaign told us they believe change is inevitable. Its been 24 years. So its the when. Its not that they will. They will. But when is the question. Reporter there really is a divide in saudi arabia between those people, both men and women, who want change and want progress on the one hand and then on the other, islamic conservatives who want to keep the status quo. And i think that this saudi government has not given women the right to drive is that they fear a backlash from those religious conservatives. Norah . Thats right, holly. Thats my understanding of it too. Although there is some in the royal family who would support such a move theyre worried about the backlash from some of the religious conservatives in the kingdom. I hope thats true. She said, listen, its the compassion. Its not the will. Its the when. Great reporting. Great reporting, Holly Williams.

Its not called a bush bon summit but its the first one on one since the election gave the republicans control. Congress is rushing to pass a spending plan so the government does not shut down as majority leader mcconnell will oversee the hiring of a new one. He said im happy to share kentucky bourbon with them. Theres a lunchtime or daytime meeting so i dont think bourbon will be. Its good that theyre meeting. If it brought results, maybe the president would do it. Who knows. Hope springs eternal. Theres kroers over two new ambassadors. Colleen bell, major donor to the Obama Administration will represent the u. S. In hungary. Shes a producer of the bold and the beautiful. Shes had her own distinguished private sector career. As a soap opera producer, correct . As somebody who has succeeded in the Business World and shes somebody the president has confidence will be able to maintain a relationship with the government and the people of hungary. Ambassadorships are often a reward for Big Campaign Donors but republican leader john mccain says it is a puzzle. Im sure Television Viewing is important in hungary, but the fact is that this nominee is totally unqualified for this position in this country. Meanwhile noah mamet is now the ambassador to argentina. Hes also an obama donor. He drew opposition to his election because he doesnt speak spanish. This appeal started with a ups worker whose doctor told her not to lift heavy boxes. Jan crawford is outside the court with a case that could affect millions. Good morning. Good morning. Most women who are pregnant keep work bug what if they can do if they no longer can. Thats what happened with peggy young. Shes a driver for ups and she was placed unpaid leave. Peggy young was a driver for ups but in 2006 when she got pregnant her doctor told her not to lift more than 20 pounds. Once i got the note i took it in to the health nurse and she said we dont provide light duty for off work incidents. Basically you cant work. Ups put her on unpaid leave leaving her without Health Care Benefits for seven months. A women should never have to decide between starting a women or supporting her family. Reporter she hired a lawyer. She argued that discrimination should not. She lost. Ups said it was following the law, that it recently voluntarily changed its policy to offer more accommodations for pregnant women a move the Company Notes is actually ahead of Many Companies and government agencies. Thats why advocates are looking to the Supreme Court hoping it requires other companies to offer similar arrangements. Women who are in peggy youngs situation will find themselves faced with a choice between a paycheck and pregnancy and thats something we dont want women to have to decide between. Kari severino is representing 23 antiabortion groups siding with young forming a coal lags of womens rights. What it speaks to is fundamental fairness, a fundamental recognition that women do not lose rights when they become pregnant. Peggy young says shes taking a stand for the next generation.

I confess, hes one of my favorite people in the whole world since we did a onehour show several years ago. What is affirm and what do you hope to accomplish . Going to build a first modern bank for the young demographic. Its going to be mobile, connected, work in real time and be honest and transparent. The reason were doing this is after 2008 lots of people, especially young people, basically lost faith in their Financial Institutions in this country and i think its time to bring it back. Its a hood opportunity but an important mission. How does affirm work . We have to start somewhere. We started by building it. Instead of putting it on your card we take the purchase, tell you exactly what the fee is going to be, split it into three, six, our 12 months. When its done, no card, no debt. How big are the loans you can get . Best use case, a couple hundred, a couple thousand. Its the young student setting up their first apartment, mattress, paying art. Do you assess their credit .

Lets talk about the concerns of technology. Youre an investor in uber. Recently in the news is uber could spy on journalists. That suggestion was made. Does that sort of trouble you . Where does that draw the line that investors, Board Members take a situation on that . Im not too worried about that because were getting to more transparency, not less. The reason theres so much scrutiny with all of these companies is news travels instantly. It very quickly gets the public eye. So it gets testing every time. Are you troubled about the amount of hacking thats going on today . Yes, but i think thats only going to get worse. The new normal is bad things and bad people. Thats going to have to be something you have to learn how to defend against. You said im the impenetrable russian they try to stop and im trying to stop them. Is there a way to stop them . Absolutely. You have to invest in securities. Your mom said to you when you got to 1. 5 billion for paypal, now you can go to grad school, you did not do that. You say to kids im not telling you to drop out of school but if you have a great idea, act on it now. Exactly. I think its all about taking the risk, starting the company, creating the risks when youre young and have nothing to lose. Whats exciting about coming together, biology and technology . That is amazing. If i werent doing affirm, i would be doing something in biology. Explain what you mean. When you take the power that is manipulating and creating live things and use computers to take that forward. Wi take a lot of time in labs in the last couple of years.
