The allegations against roy moore are growing. With more reports that he was allegeedly very well known at the local mall for pursuing teenage girls when he was in his 30s and a new woman came forward and claimed he asougsaulted whe she was 16. Her story is graphic but its one she says shes willing to tell under oath. Mr. Particular attacked me when i was a child. I did nothing to deserve this sexual attack. Reporter Beverly Young nelson says in 1977 she was a 16yearold High School Student working part time at a restaurant where Senate Candidate roy moore then a local prosecutor was a regular customer. One cold night he offered her a ride home. I trusted mr. Moore because he was the District Attorney. I thought that he was simply doing something nice by offering to drive me home. Reporter instead, nelson says moore drove her to a dumpster behind the restaurant. Mr. Moore reached over and began groping me. Him putting his hands on my breasts. I tried to open my car door to leave but he reached over and he locked it so i could not get out. I tried fighting him off while yelling at him to stop. But instead of stopping he began squeezing my neck attempting to force my head on to his crotch. Reporter overnight moore denying the accusations. And i can tell you without hesitation this is absolutely false. I never did what she said i did. I dont even know the woman. I dont know anything about her.

Com quoting rest depses in moores hometown it was a wellknown secret he would go to the mall to pursue teenage girls. One of those residents is quoted and named. I want to put that on the screen. That resident saying he would go and flight with all the young girls. It seems like every friday or saturday night youd see him Walking Around the maul like the kids did. Now, for his part roy moore has denied all those allegations of Sexual Misconduct. The allegations are piling up. Tom, thanks very much. Roy moore is running to fill the seat that had been held by Jeff Sessions and hell be on the hot seat today after revelations overnight hes asked Justice Department prosecutors to examine the Clinton Foundation and Hillary Clintons emails despite promises to recuse himself from those matters. Mary bruce has the latest. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning, george. Well, for weeks the president has been ramping up the pressure calling for the Justice Department to look into Hillary Clinton and this morning as the attorney general heads to the hill the department is now weighing a new investigation. As president returns from a marathon trip in asia. Made a lot of friends at the highest level. Reporter hes being greeted with a new controversy. Attorney general Jeff Sessions authorize identifying the Justice Department to consider a special counsel to look into allegations regarding trumps former rival, Hillary Clinton. In a letter to the House Judiciary Committee the Justice Department suggests prosecutors would examine allegations that donations to the Clinton Foundation influenced a decision by the Obama Administration to allow a Russian Agency to buy the nuclear one company writing prosecutors will make recommendations as to whether any matters not urpdzly under investigation should be open or whether any merit the appointment of a special counsel. Donald, welcome to my hometown. Reporter sessions mrenged to steer clear of clinton related investigations. I believe the proper thing for me to do would be to recuse myself from any questions involving those kind of investigations that involve secretary clinton that were raised during the campaign. Or could otherwise be connected to it. Reporter thats not the outcome the president was hoping for. I win im going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation. Reporter before departing for his trip to asia they should be looking at the democrats. He should be looking at podesta and all of that dishonesty. They should be looking at a lot of things and a lot of people are disappointed in the Justice Department including me. Thank you, everybody. Reporter now critics are already soungdz the alarm. Theto democrat on the House Intelligence Committee tweeting if the a. G. Bends to pressure from the president and appoints a special counsel to investigate trumps vanquished rival it could spell the end of the doj as an independent institution. Now, guy, sessions is set to testify on the hill later this morning. And you can be sure hes going to face some harsh questions. Yeah, that is going to be some hearing. Thanks very much. That it will. More now on the revelation that donald trump jr. Exchanged private messages with wikileaks during the campaign. Pierre thomas has more joins us from washington. Good morning, pierre. Reporter robin, good morning. Thats right today new allegations that trumps son don junior was in contact with not just the russians, but another adversary against Hillary Clinton, wikileaks. New words this morning that donald trump jr. Was directly communicating with wikileaks. Communication that apparently had direct cause and effect. On october 12th in the final stretch of the campaign, wikileaks wrote don junior say, great to see you and your dad talking about our publications. Wikileaks encouraged trump to tell his father to mention their link in their tweets. 15 minutes later then candidate donald trump tweet, very little pickup by the Dishonest Media of incredible information provided by wikileaks. So dishonest. Rigged system. Within two days don junior tweeted out the link. Throughout the election donald trump repeatedly made known his fondness for wikileaks which released a spate of damaging emails to his opponent in the president ial race Hillary Clinton. We have to go back to wikileaks. Oh, wikileaks. Reporter but wikileaks had been identified by the Intelligence Community as being a surrogate for the russian government. Publishing damaging information hacked by the kremlin stolen by the dnc and clinton chairman john podesta. Time to call it out for what it really is, a nonstate Hostile Intelligence Service often abetted by state actors like russia. Reporter trump juniors exchange began in september of last year during the final stretch of the campaign. Wikileaks contacting the son asking him about an antitrump website which was about to be launched. Don junior responded the leadership including steve bannon, Kelly Anne Conway and Jared Kushner and if your father loses we think its more interesting if he does not concede and spends time challenging the media. Don junior did not respond to that message. Don junior not only expressed a willingness to accept the help of the russian government in that meeting at trump tower but here you have him in communication privately, secretly with wikileaks. Reporter don junior and his attorney downplayed the wikileaks revelation. Don junior tweeting heres the entire exchange of messages with wikileaks mwith my whopping responses he says leaked by congress. A lot to talk to with dan abrams and that story right there. Unlikely sending messages is illegal but this is now the second time that we know that don junior was open to receiving information connected to the russians and the first time the President Trump may have acted on it. The fact that President Trump tweeted 15 minutes later is what looks really bad here, though. As a legal matter we talked about it. Collusion not a crime per se. Theyd have to demonstrate there was involve many, aiding, abetting in the hacking or some conspiracy to violate or commit a crime. On collusion no, but previously denials of any contacts with the russians. Jeff sessions, as well right now. You can read the letter he wrote making an unlikely there will be a special counsel at the end of the day but there is a real question whether they you had be directing, do anything related to Hillary Clinton. This is a direct violation of what he promised the senate he wouldnt do. And we played a piece there before. We heard a sound bite from him but he was actually even more definitive in a response to senator grassley. Senator grassley said to him to be very clear you intend to recuse yourself from both the clinton email investigation and any matters involving the Clinton Foundation if there are any. Sessions respond, yes. Absolutely clear. This is about the Clinton Foundation. So this seems to me that he cannot both keep his promise to the senate and be involved in this in any way. Meantime, these allegations continue to pile up against roy moore down in alabama. Appears to be political trouble for him. Any legal vulnerability in there would have been back there. What was alleged to have happened a long time could have been a crime back then but statute of limitations expired as weve talked about cosby, weinstein, et cetera, you need some newer allegation for there to be a legal issue. Dan abrams, thanks very much. All right, george. Now to new fallout from a Tense Exchange caught on camera. A dallas lawyer has been fired after getting into an argument with her uber driver. Who says she threatened him, hit him, even accused him of kidnapping her. Abcs linzie janis is here with that story. Good morning, linzie. Reporter the uber driver made an audio recording posting it on his Facebook Page. Shortly after his passenger, that dallas prosecutor losing her job that she held for six years. Oh my god youre an idiot. Youre a legitimate [ bleep ]. Reporter youre listening to the argument that led to the firing of one of dallas countys assistant District Attorneys. Im asking you politely to plea step out of my vehicle. No because now i am pissed off. Reporter he was driving jody warner home from this bar friday night. When she game upset go directions and began threatening him. Youre so stupid i want the cops to come so that they can [ bleep ] you up. She kept saying she was didnt d. A. Who are they going to believe you or me . So i said, you are knknow, you kind of right. Reporter he pulled over and asked her to get out. When she refused he called the police. She actually hit me. Maam, please. No, maam, please, dude, youre all everything is being recorded. Im an assistant District Attorney so shut the [ bleep ] up. I think this might be kidnapping right now actually. Reporter when the cops arrived platt declined to press charges. Im used to dealing with drunk passengers on a consistent basis. I forgive her. Reporter but warners employer not so forgiving. The d. A. Office firing her late monday in a statement saying her behavior is contrary to this offices core principle of integrity. I am sorry it cost her her job. You dont treat people that way. Reporter overnight warner denying she ever hit platt but expressing regret and calling her behavior unacceptable telling abc news, i cringe whenever i hear or think about the things that i said that night. Adding, the audio doesnt tell you that i was in a situation that made me feel very uncomfortable. The driver shawn platt tells us he wants people to leave her alone. Warner has paid the price for her actions. Wow, all right, linzie, thank you very much. Good thing he recorded that. Good for him to do that. Also this morning, President Trump is revealing he personally asked chinas president to help resolve that case of three ucla basketball players who are under house arrest accused of shoplifting.

Moore said he doesnt know her but the woman showed a yearbook with a message he appeared to write. A new storm moving into the northwest after a deadly system bringing rain and violent wind that sent trees toppling onto cars and homes and knocked out power for more than 150,000. New charges in the penn state hazing case. They discovered disturbing video that was deleted after piazzas death showing just how much he was given to drink. Abcs gio benitez is outside the courthouse in pennsylvania, good morning, gio. Reporter robin, good morning to you. Prosecutors say that video shows even more hazing and this morning, theyre calling it a crucial piece of evidence. This morning, potential bombshell evidence in the alleged hazing death of penn state freshman tim piazza. The District Attorney charges 12 more of piazzas former Fraternity Brothers with a variety of charges after the fbi recovered deleted video from the night the 19yearold died. Missing from the evidence in this case was what really happened downstairs in that dark basement that night. This video is the missing link. They claimed we dont know what else happened other than what was in the upstairs video and we dont know what happened in the basement. Guess what, guys. Now we know. Reporter in all 26 brothers now charged. Many facing allegations from Reckless Endangerment to manslaughter. Police say the students led them to believe a Security Camera in the fraternitys basement wasnt working. But instead they allegedly deleted the video. Prosecutors say the now recovered video shows the brothers giving piazza 18 drinks in less than 90 minutes. Thats a drink every 4 1 2 minutes. Tim never gets his own alcohol. Its just the brotherstying to give him alcohol. So they just keep handing him more and more. The wine, the vodka and the beer. Reporter at a previous hearing the court had already seen other videos showing piazza stumble through the house. At one point falling down a flight of stairs. No one in the house called for help for 12 hours. One defense Attorney Says his client is innocent. Im very confident that when we get to litigate these issues in a courtroom, not in a press conference the charges regarding Involuntary Manslaughter, aggravated assault, hazing and Reckless Endangerment and the other serious charges will be dismissed against michael. Reporter this morning the parents of tim piazza have a warning for other families. Talk to your children. Tell them not to get involved in this nonsense. Your life is too important to put it on the line for a brotherhood or a sisterhood. It matters. Reporter and they say theyve heard from parents all across this country and one mother in particular sent them this letter and it just meant so much. It said this, tims life mattered to me. Robin. Absolutely, absolutely. How did police even know about the deleted video . Reporter so that video that they already had, they actually saw the time stamps and, robin, they saw there was a big missing chunk. They said, boy, that doesnt make sense, they sent that to the fbi. The fbi recovered it. Great police work there. All right, gio, thank you very much. Dan abrams is back along with our senior Legal Correspondent sunny hostin. So, new tape. New charges. Yeah, and, look, its very disturbing that they apparently deleted this tape. I mean that in and of itself a crime but i say two thing, number one a tape can make all the difference being able to watch something happen can change everything. On the one hand you can say we think this happened. We think that happened. Watching it happen is a totally different story. But with that said, im not certain that this changes the legal analysis with regard to the most serious crimes because, remember, a judge has already dismissed the Involuntary Manslaughter aggravated assault charges. What we see in the basement is the drinking part. And so i dont know that this is going to lead the judge to say, this now rised to the level of Involuntary Manslaughter. Completely disagree with my good friend, dan abrams. I mean, you know, Involuntary Manslaughter difficult to prove as a prosecutor because its an unintentional killing. People are more comfortable when you can see intent. But in order to prove Involuntary Manslaughter you have to prove a causal link between a defendants conduct and the victims death. This is the missing link because the vehicle shows he was plied with 18 drinks in 82 mens. But for the Alcohol Consumption and but for them giving it to him and but for the fact that they didnt even help him, he would be alive today. Thats all the prosecutors need here. They knew all that before and so they didnt have a video of it they didnt know who gave it to him. They knew all the facts surround what happened and the judge made that decision. They deleted it. So they obviously knew something was wrong. Right, no question. Thats a separate crime. So, you just have to evaluate both the crimes and the individuals separately which is we cant lump all these people in together and say, oh, there are 18 people who did this or this. You have to evaluate each and every one of these cases separately and say what did this person do . I think the prosecutors have done now you have this missing link four out of the ten defendants have been charged with Involuntary Manslaughter. I would bet my Bottom Dollar those are the four that plied him with the drinks is the missing link. Remember, again, its critical to remember the judge already evaluated involuntary without the video, dan. You feel that seeing the video. It makes a huge difference. I made so many cases where the video maybes all the difference. When you can place those jurors at the scene of the crime and you can tell those jurors they knew they did something wrong and thats why they deleted the tape thats all i need. This isnt about jurors. Right now youre talking about can you overcome it with the judge and thats the first question theyre going to have to deal with which is can they convince this judge that things are now fundamentally different. Prosecutors had already by the way refiled the charges. The prosecutors already said, we think there was a problem here. Were refiling the charges, well add additional evidence and this will bolster the case. Very doubtful a judge seeing this video and the death of a young promising man is going to dismiss these charges. Most serious charges. Were not talking about dismissing all dismissing the deleting the tape and ill see you back at this table when the judge does that. Maybe. Ill bet you at least some of the Involuntary Manslaughter charges will be dismiss. Id take that bet. I remember when timothys mother and father and brother were right here in the studio and this moment is for them. They have been very steadfast and having this, again, because it was you dont delete something if you dont think the video speaks the truth. No matter what you think about this case that video tells you what happened. It implies to me they knew what was wrong. Thank you both very much. Well sway on it. George. Thanks, robin. Coming up our abc news exclusive, the father and daughter targeted in an elaborate kidnapped and saying how they avoided becoming victims and the police found in the suspects car.

After a shark tore into him on a surfing trip leaving these puncture wounds. I felt like a hand grabbing me like shaking me. I thought i was going to die so youre about to be eaten alive by a shark. Reporter as the shark came after him, he could evenly think of one thing. This guy, australian surf champion mick fanning who fought off a shark attack at a surfing championship in south africa. Fanning punched the shark in the face so charlie decided to do the same. It just went for my shoulder, got a big thud and i saw a sharks head come out of the water with its teeth and i just punched it in the face. The british doctor and amateur surfer says if they ever meet he owes mick a beer. My friends said would you take a shark bite to have a flesh wound if you dont lose any limbs. Yeah, i would. You should see the shark, though. Look, he said he called his mom. He does what many of us do when you get in trouble, you do something, you call and say, look, im okay, but he said thats how he told the story to his parents. How big was the shark. Five to six feet. They saw a tenfooter in the area later but five or six feet. A hashark is a shark. Proud of the wounds. Please know for information there are only about 80 shark encounters a year in the world, six to eight deaths in the world so this is absolutely rare but im sure its terrifying to go through it, even five seconds.

The American Heart Association changing the guidelines meaning almost half of American Adults could now be living with whats called the silent killer affecting men and women and our chief medical contributor, dr. Jen ashton is here to talk about that. [ applause ] and you checked jennifers numbers. I did. I checked jennifers numbers. She gave me permission to share them. It was a little bit high. We did check it twice. Shes on national tv. Thats right. Well cut her some slack. Her heart rate was elevated. 154 over 100, jen. We did suggest she get it checked again. This is medical news that could what do we need to know. New guidelines. Old guidelines if you had a number of 140 over 90 you were classified as having hypertension. Now that dropped to 130 over 80 reflecting the fact we know damage can occur at lower numbers so, again, very important for people to know these numbers and it will affect a lot more people. It will double the number of women under the age of 45 who meet criteria for having hypertension, a lot moore people involved. Will this be a lot more people on medication. Actually it wont. The key here this should be managed with lifestyle modification. Only expected to increase the number of people on medication by 2 but you have to take a look at these changes because these can make a big difference. Eating the right diet, the dash diet is the gold standard, fitness, cardio and weights. Lowering sodium in your diet and increasing potassium with things like avocado, bananas and salmon and limiting alcohol, no more than two drinks a day for men, one for women can lower those numbers by anywhere from 11 points and every point matters. You want to show us what high Blood Pressure does to the body. I think we hear it as the silent killer. You have to understand that high Blood Pressure affects organs like the kidney, the eyes, the heart, the blood vessels but i want you to look at this demonstration. If you imagine this pump as the heart and this as your blood vessels. Your vascular system, with normal Blood Pressure its easy to pump. Once you have high Blood Pressure you have increased resistance in these blood vessels, that pump has to work harvarder to circulate the blood and over time this does major damage. So what should people do right now. I think the key thing is you need to know your numbers and weve heard about white coat hypertension. People go to the doctor and Blood Pressure gets elevated but get one of these home kits. Check your Blood Pressure at home. Make sure youre doing it on a bare arm. Larger arms you need to use a larger cuffee. Good. All good advice there. Jen, thanks very much. Robin, whats happening in this is andrew, this is colleen. They came in this morning. Ive known andrew a long time to make a pregnancy announcement because shes due in june. [applause] thats not all. Check out what happened next. Asking too much. How about right now. [cheers and applause] and you know what, down on the knee he goes. Were so happy for you guys. Pregnancy announcement and engagement. Cant get more than a gma moment than now. For now lets get a check a little closer to home. Wow. All right, storm tracker6 live double scan we are dry, taking a look outside weve got some sun early. You can see it against the center city sky scrapers but there are clouds in the distance that will tend to be more of a factor later this morning. Temperatures are in the upper 30s, low 40s. This afternoon some sun, cool, 51 degrees, not much wind. Tomorrow partly sunny and nice, 53 with rain holding off until late at night. An early sprinkle on thursday. Otherwise sun coming back and 58. Test lab. Two identical sisters who live nearly identical lives trying out two different diets. Take a look. Two twins lauren and leila. Two trendy diet, whole 30 versus counting macros. Which works better. We began at st. Lukes mt. Sinai tofigure out their starting numbers and put them 5 in a bod pod. It can show you how much fat you have on the body. The scale is not an indicator. Its the fat in your body. Reporter experts suggest 30 body fat or less for women to obtain good health. Percent body fat is at 37. 9. Thats not good. Thats not good. Reporter laurens starting weight, 152. 3. Body fat, 41. 2 and leils weight, 133. And body fat 37. 9. Lauren is taking on the whole 30. Coaching her through is whole 30 cocreator melissa hartwing. The whole 30 is tote aly different and look at it as a reset. Pushing it with your health, your habits and relationship with food. For 30 days of whole food, meats and veg tack, no sugar, no alcohol, no grains, legume, soy or dairy. So what we do is pull them out for 30 days and its a pretty strict pullout. You do have to stick with it. Reporter for leila, referred to as counting macros. Its the new school way of counting calories. Theres three macro category, preteens, tarabasovs and fat and have the correct amount is the thing. Reporter shes being coached by this couple. Preparation is huge. Reporter leila can fit whatever she wants as long as it fits into her pie graph. We recommend 80 of your day is nutrient dense foods. Your fruit, veggies, complex carb, lean meats and leaves 20 to be anything that you want. Ice cream. Reporter both twins tackling their first week stocked with food for their diet. For 30 days leila weighing everything she eats and checking the macros and making sure to stay in her numbers. And lauren cooking everything, making sure to stick with the foods allowed on the whole 30. And today its been 30 long hard days. But was it all worth it . It is time for the results. All right. So we have lauren, we have leila and maya feller here. So, lauren and leila. We want to see results. Please step on up and start with lauren. You started at 152 pounds and leila you were 133 so lets see where you are. Drum roll, please. [ drum roll ] all right. Here we go. Wow. Congratulations you guys. Can we look. What is it . So, lauren you lost over ten pounds. I did . 7 of your body weight. Oh, yay. Congrats and leila, youre down so cute. More than 6 pounds, 5 of your body weight but shes started at less weight so lets see what happened to body fat percentage. Oh, lord. Drum roll, please. Thank you, audience. Very nice, very nice. All right. So this is amazing. Lauren, you lost 5. 1 of your body fat. [ applause ] leila, you lost 4. 6. Oh, yeah, good. Congratulations. Come on down so those are remarkable and ill ask maya how scientifically acura is the twin test. This is completely anecdotal based on these two girls. Not something we can generalize. Lots of variables and factors. Their age, their initial weight, hormones that play into how they lost weight, right. Doing it with identical twins, doesnt that help us see which diet works better. Not necessarily. As i said there are different variables so you would see, you know, for one of them they had different outcomes versus the other one. Okay, so im going to ask. Lauren, how did you feel about the whole 30 diet . Would you recommend it. I would recommend it. Only thing it was a little difficult at the beginning because i had to take out dairy and sugar but after i know it was a little tough. After the first two weeks it was pretty simple. You sort of get used to it. You did counting macros. Doing research on it it sounds like its a lot of work. Well, the counting macros was great but the work was me like weighing my food and having to log everything that i ate every day was the most challenging part. Takeaway, would you recommend it. Im still doing it and recommend it because its flexible. Sticking with it. Yes, love it. I got to thank you, maya. Well keep doing these experiments. Keep up the great work. Thank you. Im just figuring out who is who. Well head right over to michael strahan. Were just a week away from the dancing with the stars finale and last night, there was a shocker in the ballroom. Victoria arlen and val were sent home but you know what, were on the lucky side of that because theyre here now to talk to us about the competition. [ applause ] you know, you guys thank you for coming in this morning. Its a tiring long trip to get here. You were really incredible. Victoria, you had your first two 10s dancing the charleston. How tough is it to go home after that. Devastating. We our two dances were probably the best weve had all season and you just felt so good with them and that charleston freaked me out. I think i was doing that in my sleep to prepare for it. So i was really excited. I mean last night couldnt have gone greater until the end but im really proud of what we achieved and the fact we did get those 10s. You should be proud of that. Because you were paralyzed you were paralyzed for ten years because of a childhood illness and you started walking only a year ago. What was your challenge, val, to get her to do these things. There was a couple of challenges here and there but, you know, with every challenge is a great opportunity, im so grateful that the show trusted me with this incredible young woman and i got to tell her story and its not every day that a dancer gets to fulfill himself through, you know, embracing family and just like i said her story was so inspiring. Im just really proud to be a part of it. Speaking of family when you were 10 you told your mom you wanted to be on dancing with the stars and she has a little message for you. Oh. Victoria, when you left to come to dancing with the stars you said you wanted to impact the world in a positive way through your dance. And you did that after your first dance, victoria, we are so proud of you. The fact that you are even walking let alone dancing, we couldnt be more proud and we love you so, so much. [ applause ] ah. Man. We got to say were proud of both of you. We love having you here.

I think that every day is a reminder, you know, carrie and debbies images are everywhere and waiting for another new movie but what i tried to do with the year was sort of excavate what my life was about and really try to put my soul into the pages of this book in honor of them and in honor of my own mother and i feel like i did that. You dedicated the book to girl power basically to your mom, your daughter, your sisters and the women of the world. Why is this for them. Its almost like i dont like boys. [ laughter ] and i do. You know, i didnt realize as i was writing it so the dedication came later, but i really feel like a lot of the stories that i tell and we run the gamut in the book, its little treasure, little, you know, consume them however you like one at a time however you like. I realized it was about rising above anything that life throws you. I have, you know, the anomaly of having a 21year marriage in this industry. Thats incredible. Congratulations.
