On the run. Schools closed in the area as new Surveillance Camera images reveal new clues about how c convict may be surviving and a new search area. Special counsel jack smith is still investigating, and following money, and where the fundraising money was spent as part of the conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election, and what it could mean for Donald Trumps unindicted coconspirators. The far reaching Unintended Consequences as north koreas president kim jongun could be soon speaking with Vladimir Putin. Sara is off today, and im here today with kate bolduan. Police are expanding the manhunt from a killer who escaped a prison in pennsylvania one week ago. They say that convicted killer Danelo Cavalcante has been spotted overnight and they have photos. Two School Districts in the area are closed today because of the concern that the escaped killer could be hiding nearby. Danny freeman is with us now for the very latest. What are you learning . So, john, you really said it. The search is expanding and intensifying for danelo kavl canty, a cavalcante, and the search is intensifying and six sightings of cavalcante over the course of the manhunt. The most recent that we learned about in the Press Conference this morning with the Pennsylvania State police took place as you said a little bit south of the twomile radius that Law Enforcement officials had been searching for the bulk over the weekend, but now it is expanded into what is known as longwood gardens. It is a popular tourist destination, and it is massive, 200 acre of sprawling gardens of meadows as well. Also of winding trails. It is on a trail camera where cavalcante was spotted last night, and first around 8 30, and then around 9 30. You can see the picture that we have been showing around the morning. It is pretty intense. Xw you can see him, and it is almost like he is looking right at the trail camera, and he is not wearing a shirt, and carryicarry carrying a duffle bag, and wearing the prisonissued pants. And the trail camera is looking like he is looking for resources as he goes, and looking for open cars and homes. So the police are urging the residents in the area to be extremely vigilant and careful. John, we have been talking about how difficult the search has been for Law Enforcement, and take a listen to what colonel George Bbifens described area. What you have is significant parcels of areas with undergrowth and so thick that the searchers cannot be more than a couple of yards apart where they will lose sight of one another, and so thick that they have to hack their way through or go around to make sure that they have still covereded that area, because they just that you cannot walk through it. So, john, that is what the Law Enforcement officials are up against right now, but they are working to combat that challenging terrain as much as possible. That i are using the helicopters, canines, a number of Law Enforcement not only from state and local area, but calling in the custom and border protections and fbi resources and all in an effort to capture this man cavalcante six days after escaping from the prison behind me. All right. Danny freeman on the scene, and keep us posted what you see and hear. And with us is chief Law Enforcement analyst john miller, and 2 1 2 hours that we have learned that the perimeter has shifted, that they have new photo of the convicted killer on the run, and where are things standing right now sh well, they have shifted the perimeter and tightened the perimeter, and as danny said, the gardens are amazing, because if you are going to be on the run and hiding out, it is the most beautiful place that you could be. It is 200 acres of Horticulture Displays and incredible flowers and trees and so on. But the downside for him is that will have cameras there. You have had encounters with homeowners where he has been Flicking Lights On and off inside of the house, and encounters with the state police where he has been encountered and chased but got away. So he has had six brushes with being sighted, so that means that he doesnt have a lot, and looking at the team. You have the d. A. Who is mad and rightly so. She convicted this man. And six weeks. And now she has to go through leading this Law Enforcement effort to capture him, and bob clark from the u. S. Marshals ahead of the Regional Fugitive Task force and finding people on the run what he does for a living everyday. He has an expert team, and not just in the urban back alleys of philadelphia looking for fugitive felons, and they have done this Business Ined The Woo with mike burnham who Escaped Another County Prison In Warren With Survivalist training who lasted ten days s out there or eric frinham that ended with a massive shootout, or this lieutenant bivens who led that area, and that was again in rural wooded areas and a State Trooper was killed in the final gun battle with him, and so nobody out here doing this is out there on the first rodeo, and it is a relatively small area, and so they will get this guy. And we have other Breaking News coming in to cnn former white house Chief Of Staff to donald trump mark med dose and five others charged in the interference case, and the one focussed in Fulton County, t georgia, have plead not guilty. Now, sara murray is Keeping Track of all of the pleas as they come n and what is this saying about the state of the case, sara . Well, kate, we were waiting to see this flurry of filings, and we suspected that not a lot of the folks and especially not mark meadows the white house Chief Of Staff would want to appear in person at the Fulton County courthouse for arraignments and now we are seeing the filings coming in, and mark meadows has entered a plea of not guilty and waived the arraignment and pro trump attorney john eastman and Jeffrey Clark and everyone is getting the filings in ahead of this wednesday deadline for arraignment, and again, the way it works in Fulton County superior court, you dont have to be there in person, and you can put in the paperwork and waive arraignment, and so it is an open question of when we could see these folks in court. Mark meadows is in the process of trying to move all of the proceedings against him from State Court To Federal court. A judge has heard hours of arguments on, that and he got additional briefings on that, and we are waiting essentially at any moment for him to make the decision of Whether Meadows met the threshold that everything that he did related to the 2020 election or his activities were all stemmed from his role as white house Chief Of Staff. If the judge decides that he has met that bar, he can move his case to federal court, and a number of the other defendants are going to be watching to see if meadows is successful, including former president Donald Trumps team who is looking at the possibility of trying to move trumps case to federal court as well. Absolutely. Great to see you, sara. Thank you for jumping on to bring us this. And also, new Cnn Exclusive Reporting Of Where and whom and what special counsel jack smith is focused on right now in the federal election subversion case. Look, this is the situation. Donald trumps trial date is set for march, but what we have learned as part of the exclusive cnn reporting is that the investigation is not over. He is talking to other witnesses and the grand jury is still meeting, and smith is seeking to learn about money that was raised off of the baseless voter fraud claims and then used to pay for alleged voter equipment investigation. What are we learning . Look, a month ago when the indictment came down and only charged donald trump. A lot of people were surprised. The indictment does mention codefendants or coconspirators, and the question was whether this case was going to be narrowly tailored so that it could go to trial before the 2024 election or whether anyone else was going to be charged. That what our colleague zach cohen and i sought to look into in this new reporting. We learned that in recent weeks the special counsel has been asking witnesses specifically about the coconspirator Sidney Powell who is one of the attorneys who helped to push this baseless claim of voter fraud. They asked if Powell Ever P presented claimsf voter fraud, and we hare hearing that no, sh never did present evidence. And we are hearing that her Group Republic for justice is a nonprofit, and then we learned that it raised money in four states that biden won. So the special counsel is still clearly working hard on the investigation, but it is unclear if powell or anyone else is going to be charged. Remember that the initial understanding is that maybe there is a narrow federal case, and then a more broad State Counsel seen in georgia where powell and others were charged, but now the new reporting is whether that is going to be the case or if the special counsel could possibly file additional charges. All right. Paula reid, thank you for the reporting and laying it out for us. Now, with us is former federal prosecutor renaldo mariotti, and et seems that Sidney Powell and others not named donald trump, and how much is the special counsel going to want to keep this separate from the indictment against trump and trial date that is set for march in this case . There is no question in my mind that he is going to indict that as a separate indictment. In fact, it is pretty apparent at this point that he was doing what he did, in other words, drew a narrow indictment and one defendant, donald trump, with the intention to have that trial as quickly as possible. Typically a prosecutor would want to charge everyone together like fani willis did in georgia, but jack smith deliberately took that approach to get that trial done as soon as possible. But renaldo, is there a case that the two have to be linked and cannot be tried separately, and is there something to be coming down the road, down the pike on that . Well, nobody is going to raise that, because they all want to have their own trial, and ideally, everyone in georgia would love to have 19 separate trials, but it is typically the prosecutors that everyone want it tried together, and the judges will go along with that because of the efficiency for the legal system they want one trial instead of 19, so no one is going to protest that, but what it does mean i suspect is that the trial with a whole bunch of the other coconspirators together, and some of them will be asking for different trials and going in a different direction where they all want their own trial, but they wont get it. And so, this is leading us to the answer that was a question when we first saw the indictment of donald trump is that there is just all of these unindicted coconspirators and all of the very, and almost detailed descriptions of who the coconspirators are without them named in indictment which left a lot of people wondering why after such a long investigation, and does this new investigation of jack smith start so answer that . Absolutely. Very good point. At the time, people thought, well, maybe he made a decision, and maybe jack smith decided well, i will go after trump and let everyone else hang out there, and not indict them. But it turns out that he had additional work to do regarding the defendants, and he was not there yet. So he made the decision if he was over the line so to speak for all of the other coconspirators that he would not get it done quickly or before election day, and so he made a tactical decision to indict trump first and then he is continuing work this way so he can get everything wrapped up for coconspirators before trump faces trial which will mean that the coconspirators are not going to be eager to testify in his defense. And now i want to ask you about the Breaking News up here on the screen that the former Chief Of Staff mark meadows has plead not guilty in the Fulton County case, and it is not a surprise that mark meadows believes he not guilty and many people, including me, thought that he would wait as long as he could to see if his case were removed to federal court. Which of course, he has argued for and testified for not too long ago to get his case moved to federal court, and does it tell us anything that he has plead not guilty in the state case before finding out if it is moved to federal court . Well, he is running out of time, john. It does not extinguish the motion that he has in federal court. I think that mark meadows is if there is an enigma here, all of us are interested in what is happening in the mark meameadow camp, because all of the unindicted coconspirators, he was conspicuously not mentioned and he is a high risk, an calculated risk legal strategy to try to get it to move to federal court, and it is going to be interesting to see how it is moved out, but he did not hurt himself by pleading not guilty. Thank you, renato mariotti, thank you. And now, there is news that kim jongun is may soon traveling to russia to work out an arms deal with Vladimir Putin. Much more ahead on that.

This is just into cnn, we have an update on Mitch Mcconnells health. The Senate RepublicanLeaders Office has just released new details. I want to bring in manu raju and dr. Sanjay gupta. What are you learning, manu . Well, we learned that Mitch Mcconnell froze before cameras last week, and also in july and this is after he suffered a concussion, and this is providing more information after the Second Health care. And this is released by Brian Monaghan who is the congressional physician. He said that my examination after your brief episode involved a brain study, and consultations with several neurologists with a comprehensive neurology tests and there is no evidence of a Seizure Disorder or any evidence of a stroke or tia or parkinsons or any Recovery Problems from your fall. So there is question of what happened to senator mcconnell, and the republicans and the democrats are coming back to the senate for first time in roughly five weeks on a recess. This Republican Leader is facing questions himself about how long he can continue to serve in office. Now for first time providing this information about that he had these examinations, and there is no evidence of a seizure or stroke. A lot of speculation that it was the case, but at the time, john, republicans, and the Leaders Office indicated that he had light hea lightedness, and that is what he said that lightheadedness can occur as the leader did in march. So it is unclear whether it was tied to that fall or not, but here indicating in this note, they say no evidence of a seizure or a stroke, but the question is, or parkinsons disease, and if that is going to alleviate any concerns on capitol hill. Thank you, manu, to jump on the bring us this update. And sanjay, as a dear friend and medical correspondent, and neurosurgeon in your own right, talk to me about what you are hearing from the capitol physician about an mri and eeg study and consultations with several neurologists. Well, it is sounding like they did a comprehensive evaluation. This is as manu said august 30th, and a few days ago now, and apparently after the last episode, sounds like enough concern, and
