♪ hello, and welcome to our viewers joining us from the united states and all around the world. the u.s. government less than 4 hours away from shutting down ahead we'll look at the republican infighting that's making a deal nearly impossible. plus, a state of emergency in new york city as highways, subways, and even laguardia airport are flooded. and a murder mystery nearly 30 years in the making. police just arrested a suspect in the shooting death of rapper tupac shakur. ♪ >> announcer: live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom with leyla harrak. >> the u.s. government is down to its final day of operation before it must shut down. on friday u.s. republicans roundly rejected u.s. house speaker kevin mccarthy's latest attempt to gain their support. unless there's a break through this weekend active duty troops and border agents may soon have to work without pay. food assistance for millions could be at risk. government loans to farmers, students, small businesses wouldn't be processed and air travel could be disrupted if unpaid tsa workers don't show up as has happened before. and the list keeps ongoing. well, after his failed vote on friday, mccarthy emerged from his conference suggesting a new option. >> i think if we had a clean one without ukraine on it we could probably be able to move that through. i think if the senate puts ukraine on there and focuses ukraine over america, i think that could cause real problems. >> we get the latest from cnn's manu raju on capitol hill. >> as congress is staring at a government shutdown if there is no deal by 11:59 p.m. on saturday night, speaker mccarthy is making a new demand. he is saying that the senate which is trying to move a bipartisan bill through its chamber, he said the senate must drop as part of that bill $6 billion included for aid to ukraine, its war against russia. he says if the senate continues to push for aid to ukraine the government will shut down. that's a new threat mccarthy is making and suggesting that perhaps there could be a short-term bill to keep the government open for about two weeks if ukraine is dropped. there's still a lot of questions about whether or not mccarthy could get the votes to do that. if he relied on democratic votes to do that would be that be enough to push him out of the speakership. that's been a warning that's been leveled by a number of conservative members saying that if maccarthy relies on democratc votes would be enough to kick him out of his job. it's a threat that's very real as there is growing tension within the gop ranks amid these divisions. some more moderate members furious, the conservative hardliners, who have scuttled the speaker's plans on friday afternoon, the speaker tried to get a bill through on republican votes alone with spending cuts, border security measures, that some democrats oppose, but also opposed by those who want deeper cuts. some warning if political blowback, saying it would fall on their party. >> it's a dangerous tactic to take to say i want to shut the thing down. it does not benefit anything. >> any final bill is going to be bipartisan. and if somebody doesn't realize that they're truly clueless. >> i think it's bad policy and it's bad politics. they don't realize that, you know, that means not paying our border patrol agents, not paying our military, our veterans, and perhaps slowing down payment of medicare and social security benefits. that doesn't achieve the goal. >> now, the senate and the house are coming into session on saturday, that rarely happens. but, there is some expectation that there will be votes in both chambers and in the senate there will be a procedural vote to move forward with that bipartisan proposal, we'll see if the senate leaders decide to change their plans in any way to meet mccarthy's demands. in the meantime, mccarthy is going to assess whether or not he can get republican support for a short-term bill that does not include ukraine aid but may not go far enough as many hardliners would like, all raising major questions about whether a shutdown will indeed happen, how long it would last, and the ramifications that would happen, both economically and politically if this were to play out, major questions as congress returns to session on saturday to see if they can find a way out of this. maw you raju, cnn, capitol hill. well, as mccarthy struggles to rein in the hardliners, the leaders are cheerily unhappy the u.s. seems to be heading into an uncostly and unnecessary government shutdown. take listen. >> shutting down the government doesn't help anybody politically. it doesn't make any meaningful progress on policy. and it heaps unnecessary hardships on the american people as well as the brave men and women who keep us safe. >> the speaker needs to abandon his doomed mission of trying to please maga extremists and instead he needs to work across the aisle to keep the government open. things seem to be getting worse for the speaker rather than better, and it's time for him to try bipartisanship. >> well, with us now from london is leslie -- the director of the u.s. and americas program. so good to have you with us. it's difficult to see what path forward. do you see anything that could head off a shutdown at this late stage? >> it is very difficult to see especially with that failed vote on friday, and as we see, the far right, and that that very small but in this instance very powerful group of members from republicans from the house who are digging in their heels and making it very difficult for kevin mccarthy to make that decision to bring a bill to the house that could actually be passed and i think that is, you know, the crux of the problem. we know that there is a problem solvers caucus working to come up with a bill that could potentially be taiken forward in the senate first but again there's no guarantee that that would then go to the house. the house is now saying it wants to focus on longer-term spending bills rather than a shortstop gap measure than what is really needed and we just heard that focus on ukraine aid, but the other really big issue here are two things, one is that it's very difficult to get a broad enough number of people to vote for what would have been very extreme cuts across very important welfare programs. that was what was in that bill yesterday, that's why democrats opposed it, and many republicans for different reasons come together to really block mccarthy. and the second thing is that in that stopgap measure that the senate is mulling over, border security would need to go into that in order to get enough republicans on board and getting that agreed fast enough to prevent a shutdown will be quite difficult. >> quite difficult. want to talk about president biden. i mean, he's keeping a very low profile. what kind of leverage do the democrats have in all this? >> well, again, this is -- if you look at this is really something for congress, congress has to appropriate the money, and if you look across both the senate and the house, the majority of the members of congress and senators would like to see a deal, are willing to work very, very hard across the aisles to forge, it is not easy, the u.s. government has faced this before, but the situation that we're in right now is of having this radical partisan polarization where you've got a very small, very vocal number of republicans in the house, about 20, 21 that mccarthy is be-holden to, ask they're not really looking at the interests of certainly not of the country, not of congress, and not even of their own party. these are individuals who are making a name for themselves, who are raising money on the back of taking very extreme positions. so how do you bring those individuals into some sort of notion of a broader collective interest? that's really the problem. it comes down to very hard deals. and, you know, at the far end there is a question of whether or not the specker mccarthy can -- >> all eyes are on the house speaker, i mean, he is literally in the eye of the storm. describe his position right now. i mean, a lot is riding for him on this, can he professionally survive this? >> well, again, he is beholden to -- because of the -- if you go to back to how he got his position, a very large number of compromises and he's come up through and with, necessarily, the support of house republicans who simply are not demonstrating any willingness to strike the kind of bipartisan compromises or even compromises within their party that have been the bread and butter of congressional politics for a very long time, even prior to this period of radical partisan polarization. so he's in a extremely difficult position and he has not so far demonstrated that he is willing to bring bills to the house that can get a broader number of votes. and so it is very difficult to see the path forward right now. >> very difficult to see the path forward. you know, we're going into the election next year. what kind of ramifications could this have? >> it is the big question, pew has done a study recently showing that fewer than two in ten americans have trust in their government, this was just around clearly significant part of this is linked to -- and americans tend to ignore for a very long time this conversation that tends to bubble up about whether there will be a shutdown in the government with the assumption always that in the ninth inning that something will be passed and the government will remain open. there are sometimes temporary shutdowns of a few days. but this is different. not only this congress, but this particular moment, the question then is do people blame the president? do they blame congress? which party do they claim? and in the short term, certainly those republicans that have gained office in seats that really -- and districts that really went for biden are the most vulnerable. they're certainly very concerned. they can see that they will take the blame if the government is closed for certainly for an extended period of time. it doesn't -- in the medium term, if a shutdown continues it doesn't reflect well on anybody. it hurts the democrats. it hurts the republicans, and it certainly hurts the president. all in all, and most members of congress, most members of the senate, they understand this. they know this, they've been around the block, and they are working hard under extremely difficult circumstances. >> leslie, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you. a surprise development in the georgia elections subversion case, one of former u.s. president donald trump's co-defendants has taken a plea deal to avoid jail time, in exchange he'll have to testify against the others. cnn's kaitlan po lantz reports. >> reporter: pieces are falling into place as first trial related to january 6 and accusations against donald trump is set to go forward in a little less than a month and the first piece that fell into place on friday is that a defendant in that 19-defendant case in fulton county, georgia has pleaded guilty. his name is scott hall. he's a bail bondsman in georgia, pleaded guilty to five misdemeanor charges, conspiracy counts related to interfering in elections, and scott hall, you might not have heard his name before, he isn't a minor player, though, he is a person in georgia that was very well connected after the 2020 election. he was in touch with a top official at donald trump's justice department named jeffrey clark who's now also a co-defendant with him, he was also in touch with people who were leaders in the republican party who became fake electors for donald trump, additional co-defendants, and he was part of that effort where people are accused of hacking into voting machines or systems in coffee county, georgia, a rural county, after the election. so scott hall's plea deal, it does include him already being sentenced, getting five years of probation, community service, and a few thousand dollars in fines. but on top of that he must testify at upcoming trials if he's called by prosecutors. and that trial that is set to go in october when jury selection will begin in fulton county, georgia, that is currently against two of the 19 defendants in this case, sidney powell and ken chesebro, both attorneys who worked around donald trump after the election. donald trump is not set to be a defendant at that trial but both powell and chesebro as they get ready for trial they're also going to have to make decisions just like other defendants in this case. there were attorneys, prosecutors in this case in georgia on friday who indicated that they are going to be offering plea deals to them and to potentially other people in this case. that's very expected, and there is very likely to be others that would be taking plea deals just as scott hall did in this case. but ken chesebro and sidney powell will have to make their decisions first since they're going to trial first. at the same time there are other pieces coming into play here where the case is not being moved, not being split up further after several people who had affiliations with the federal government in some way, the fake electors, jeff clark, the justice department official, they tried to move their case to federal court and the trial judge said, no, that's not going to happen, it's all staying together in state court. we have two sets of people going to trial, first in october and then the rest later on and we're going to be watching for more possible guilty pleas in the near future. caitlin poe lantz, cnn, washington. people in the northeastern u.s. will be trying to dry out and checking for possible damage after friday's record-setting rainstorms that overwhelmed the region. there's more rain in the forecast in the coming hours but nothing like the torrential downpours that brought life threatening flooding on friday, overwhelming homes, businesses, streets and subways across new york and surrounding areas. while more rain fell in one single day at new york's kennedy airport than any other day on record. according to flight aware.com 512 flights into or out of the city's three major airports were cancelled on friday. and the governors of new york and new jersey declared states of emergency because of the storm. cnn's polo sandoval has more on the story. >> reporter: chaos in new york city as heavy rain pounded the five boroughs in the surrounding areas, and more is yet to come. brooklyn saw 4 1/2 inches in only three hours. >> wow, this is unbelievable, i've never seen this situation happen. this is crazy. i don't know how they're going to get this water up. >> reporter: knee deep water flooded streets. >> within, i guess, about ten minutes it was waist high water. >> reporter: forcing some residents to abandon their cars, and others to create makeshift barriers to protect their homes and businesses, flooded subway stations in brooklyn with at least ten lines suspended, and even buses taking on water while still in service. >> oh, my goodness. >> reporter: as they tried to wade through the floods, the airports weren't spared either. laguardia's historic marine air terminal flooded, the national weather service saying the bronx reached major flood stage. mayor eric adams declaring a state of emergency for the city. >> this is time for heightened alertness, and extreme caution. if you are home, stay home. if you are at work or school, shelter in place for now. >> reporter: the mayor facing criticism for taking so long to declare the state of emergency, and to address the public. >> this administration operates as a team, and i want my commissioners, my deputy commissioners, the leaders of this team who are closest to the ground of the situation, to communicate throughout this administration. we have good team leaders that are competent, that understand the subject matter, and they know how to lead. the leadership is not only the mayor, it is all of those who are placed in those positions, that's what you saw. >> reporter: according to "new york times" adams attended a campaign fundraiser thursday to celebrate his 63rd birthday earlier this month. he did not declare a state of emergency until shortly before noon on friday, just before the press conference, and hours after the deluge of rain had gun. officials said friday marked the wettest day on record in the city since hurricane ida two years ago and warned it's not over yet. >> our priority, once the immediate -- in the immediate aftermath of this first wave of the storm, it could come back again. >> reporter: through the height of the storm one new york city official said that what was experienced on friday offers a window into the future saying the climate change is moving much faster than the infrastructure can respond, which is why we saw many roads flooding in new york city. polo sandoval, cnn, brooklyn, new york. russia marks the first anniversary of its illegal annexation of four regions in ukraine. as moscow celebrates people in those regions could have draft letters on the way, we'll explain. ♪ a major arrest in the murder of rapper tupac shakur, almost three decades after he was gunned down on the las vegas strip. voting is now under way in slovakia for a general election that could see a kremlin sympathizer return to power. former prime minister robert fitzos party leading in the polls. pledging to cut off support for military in ukraine if he comes out on top. causing alarm in the west. the election will determine who will be the country's fifth prime minister in just four years. cnn's scott maclaine makes a closer look at what's at stake. >> reporter: slovakia is an eu member, that borders ukraine, that's been one of its strongest allies since the outset of the war, it has sent helicopters, air defense and artillery systems but that may soon stop. that's because the leading candidate for prime minister of slovakia is a man named robert fitzo, he's been prime minister twice before, a well-known quantity in the country, he's also openly sympathetic to moscow, claiming that it was ukrainian nazis and fascists in his words who provoked russia into war. he says that sending weapons to ukraine only prolongs the conflict, so he says that if he takes office he will not send ukraine even one more round of ammunition. he's framing this as a peace initiative, especially in light of rising inflation, rising cost of living, that is squeezing people's budgets. slovakia has also taken in more than 100,000 ukrainian refugees, which is further straining the public purse, and there's also this. f fitzo doesn't think that ukraine can win. listen. >> translator: please, can someone explain to me why tense, maybe hundreds of thousands of soldiers should be dying on either side of this conflict. they will have to sit down anyways and find an agreement because russia will never leave crimea, never leave the territories it controls in ukraine, what is this conflict good for? >> reporter: what is especially remarkable is that he was forced out of office by scandal in 2018 but because of at least in part political chaos and infighting in recent years fico has managed to rehabilitate his image, he's now the front runner. slovakia has a lot of political parties and it is very likely he will need the support of another to govern as a coalition. while fico may pair with a more moderate party he hasn't ruled out the possibility of pairing with a far right party with even more extreme views on russia and ukraine. scott mclean, cnn, london. ukraine says russia has launched at least 50 drones, in a new wave of attacks overnight. military officials say 30 drones were shot down, but others hit an infrastructure facility causing a massive fire, meanwhile russian president vladimir putin stuck to his standard script as he marked one year since declaring an annexation of four occupied regions in ukraine. he addressed the nation in this video released on friday claiming again that the annexation reflected the will of the people, and complied with international norms which, of course, is not true. crowds were cheering for russia at a large concert in moscow that marked the anniversary on friday. despite mr. putin's words the annexation did violate international law and was widely condemned. the referenda that preceded the annexations were largely dismissed as scams, but some got behind the kremlin's message. >> i think this concert is a touching occasion. i go to donetsk, i know what it's like to be under fire, and i understand what we're fighting for so i came in support. >> translator: since i have an education in history i'm in favor of our russian territories being with us, and most importantly the people, people have already suffered so much that it's time to return to our native lands. >> for more, we're joined from london. katie, talk to us about the kremlin's messaging here. >> reporter: the message here is that these areas are part of russia, that what has happened in the last year and a half has been part of a voluntary reunification with russia rather than line illegal annexation and invasion of ukraine as ukraine and the western allies are framing it. clearly, this is lively disputed and these areas are seeing a lot of fighting, these areas are close to the front line, we were reporting earlier this week, in kherson, this is one of the areas an exed and they are now celebrating this one-year anniversary. these areas are still very much contested but according to the kremlin narrative here, clearly it is that these areas now belong to russia, and that there has been a voluntary will to become part of russia, rather than ukraine, seeing it as an illegal annexation. this is part of the narrative putin has been conducting and he mentioned earlier this week that ukraine was the aggressor in this regard, and that ukraine had been stopping people from expressing their will to join the russian motherland. have a listen to what putin said. >> translator: there were attempts to scare them, strip them of their right to decide their own future, their fate to take away things that are dear to every person, culture, traditions, mother tongue. all the things that were so hated by nationalists and their western patrons who organized a coup in kyiv in 2014. people of russia supported the free and unequivocal choice of our brothers and sisters wholeheartedly. people of russia understood it and deeply felt the main thing by protectingory come pat rots in donbas, we protect russia itself, we fight together for the motherland, our sovereignty, spiritual values and unity. >> putin is wanting to express here that there is support for joining russia but it's also worth bearing in mind not only is there fighting but civilians have been evacuated from several of these areas. we were talking earlier this month about parts of zaporizhzhia being evacuated by the ukrainian authorities because of russian attacks, russian shelling in those areas. these areas are still heavily disputed, heavily contested, but clearly the message from the kremlin is that there is stability, there is control and these areas are no longer disputed but part of the russian motherland, laila. >> meanwhile, another conscription decree? >> reporter: exactly, again, this is part of the notion that these areas are now russian and therefore these are russian citizens so the decrees that apply to russian citizens apply to these areas as well and that of course includes military conscription, very notable because of where they will be fighting but it becomes part of a broader narrative about these areas being part of russia and we were seeing this week as well about ukrainian, areas under ukrainian control being able to access travel to russia without a via and without documentation, all of these trying to create a feeling that they want to cooperate with russian authorities rather than areas that are clearly disputed and in some cases under clear military control, military conscription as well. clearly part of a broader message and also something that is very practical and needed for the russian authorities as we head into the winter months, this counteroffensive on the ukrainian side making some marginal progress. we heard from the nato general secretary ian stoltenberg the counteroffensive is making gains, all of this is a concern to russia, they need further support, not only ammunition but they need further soldiers, conscription in that sense will be very much needed. >> thank you so much. from london. this was the scene in iran on friday, one day before the city marked the first anniversary of bloody friday. that's when iranian security forces killed 82 marchers and injured hundreds more. it happened during protests last year over the death of mahsa amini while she was in morality police custody. activists said friday that their memorials were met with gunfire, they say authorities tightened security before the anniversary, but government-run news said security forces are present every week in the city. another day, another failed vote in the republican-controlled house to avoid a government shutdown. now the gop leader pitching one more idea, he thinks could pass the house, but time is not on his side. those details just ahead. goli, taste your goals. - so abraham lincoln once said, "don't believe everything you read on the internet." oh, i see what they did there. misinformation online is real, and so are its negative and harmful effects. stay smart. the more you know. welcome back to our viewers in the united states, canada and all around the world, i'm laila harrak, and you're watching cnn newsroom. u.s. house speaker kevin mccarthy is now suggesting a new option to avoid a government shutdown but he's almost out of time. less than 20 hours remaining before the government is officially out of money. on friday, mccarthy tried but failed to get a short-term measure through the house of representatives. well now mccarthy is proposing taking up the senate's bill but without the additional aid to ukraine. the senate is expected to hold a procedural vote on that stopgap bill later today, the speaker said he thinks he might get enough republicans on board to support the senate legislation if the aid to ukraine is taken out. well, it's worth noting that the same lawmakers will still get paid even if there is a long shutdown. not so for more than 1 million active duty military men and women who will be required to keep showing up every day even sacrifice their lives but forego a much-needed paycheck. cnn's oren liebermann has more now from the pentagon. >> reporter: on the last military payday before a looming government shutdown nicoletti is worried about the unknown. >> we have child care costs, we have student loans, we have bills to pay, a mortgage to pay, and where is that money going to come from? >> reporter: shutdown would leave their family and 1.3 million other active duty service members without pay even as they have to keep working for nicoletti and her army spouse a recent family emergency makes it even harder. >> we were not anticipating this on top of an already hard financial time. >> reporter: ginger lost their paycheck in 2019. military got paid except for the coast guard, where her husband serves which falls under the department of homeland security. this time there's no such measure to pay troops. >> it's difficult when you can't count on your elected officials to protect you when you're literally protecting them and your country. >> reporter: it's not just military paychecks that would stop during the shutdown, some defense department child care centers will close, and on-base commissaries could close if this goes on too long. a quarter of all active duty service members already experienced food insecurity in recent years according to a study commissioned by the defense department. a shutdown would only make things harder especially for junior enlisted. ymca are ready to offer more help now. >> making sure if we need to we are adding food distribution events through our branches or partner organizations, to ensure that at least once a week there will be a food distribution in those areas where possible. >> reporter: melissa shaw says service members in her husband's yunt have put on a braveface about a potential shutdown but the concern is real. >> over the last 24 hours in particular we've had a chat thread going with many families in our unit and what they're telling us is that right now they're choosing to be optimistic, choosing to hope for the best, and plan for the worst. >> reporter: a military life requires the willingness to make sacrifices for the country like facing the ca challenges of deployments and moves but a shutdown is different. not a threat from an enemy b uh a self-inflicted wound. >> it's always a sacrifice, and this is just another way that we are potentially being forced to sacrifice so that my spouse and our family can serve. >> reporter: in previous shutdowns congress has acted to make sure the military gets paid, even if and when the government stops functioning in the shutdown. but congress hasn't done that, at least not yet in this case, which means we are a very short time away from 1.3 million active duty service members having to work without pay. oren liebermann, cnn, pentagon. the president of the united auto workers says there's still a long way to go before the union reaches a possible deal with carmaker ford. despite ford saying earlier in the day that the two sides were making significant progress toward a deal. the union chief says they're far apart on economic proposals around wage increases, retirement, health care, and job security, amid the industry's transition to electric vehicles. well, the uaw again expanded its strike against gm and ford on friday with thousands more workers joining the picket lines at factories in illinois and michigan. >> and so nothing's changed from day one of where we stand and what we expect, you know, it's unfortunate the companies chose to wait almost seven weeks to get serious about bargaining, they put themselves in this position so expectations haven't changed, our demands haven't changed, and we're bargaining hard, we've been there every day. >> meanwhile the union says negotiations are progressing with stellantis. in total, more than 25,000 workers are striking across all three auto makers. a trail blazer in american politics has died, dianne feinstein was the longest-serving woman in the history of the u.s. senate. elected in 1992, the democrat was also the longest-serving senator from california and the first woman senator from the state. she chaired the senate intelligence committee and led a review of the cia's detention and interrogation program following 9/11. she became mayor of san francisco in 1978 after the mayor and a supervisor were assassinated. while the experience led to her becoming a strong advocate of gun control measures she was behind the assault weapons ban that bill clinton signed into law in 1994. she announced earlier this year that she would retire at the end of her term as the oldest member of the senate. feinstein had been in failing health for years, fell le democrat chuck schumer eulogized her on the senate floor. >> so, today, we grieve. we look at that desk, and we know what we have lost. but we also give thanks, thanks to someone so rarefied, so brave, so graceful a presence, that someone like that served in this chamber for so many years. >> feinstein was 90 years old. after nearly three decades an arrest in the killing of rapper tupac shakur duane keith davis told police about his role in shakur's death in 2009. that confession was part of a proffer agreement and could not be used against him, but that all changed when davis started talking publicly about his involvement in shakur's death. cnn's josh campbell picks up the story. >> reporter: the murder of tupac shakur, a mystery leading to endless speculation and conspiracy theories for decades since the rapper was gunned down in las vegas in 1996. he was in las vegas on september 7th, 1996 for the mike tyson, bruce sell den boxing match and shot four times while riding in the passenger seat, 25 years old he died six days later, his killer or killers were never apprehended but tonight a wreck through in the investigation. >> we are here today to announce the arrest of 60-year-old duane keith davis akakeefed for the murder of tupac shakur. >> reporter: he was shot caller of the compton clips, it was closely affiliated with suge knight. this was this fight captured on video between orlando anderson, a member of the south side compton -- and death records that ultimately led to shakur's death. >> that's when duane davis began to devise a plan to obtain a firearm and retaliate against suge knight and mr. shakur. >> the plan was for davis, anderson and two others to hunt down knight and shakur as they made their way to a las vegas nightclub. >> as they were driving west they located the black bmw which was driven by suge knight, and the passenger seat was tupac shakur, they pulled up near the passenger side of that vehicle and immediately began shooting at mr. knight, and mr. shakur. following that shooting the white cadillac fled the area. >> reporter: davis is the only surviving suspect, police say, and ultimately it was his own words that reignited the investigation. davis describing the moment he says he handed anderson, whom he calls lane, a gun, while riding in the white cadillac, in audio featured in the documentary murder rap, inside the biggy and tupac murders. >> he was like no, no, and lane's like, yeah, popped shakur. >> reporter: davis told a similar story in 2018. >> it wasn't until 2018 that this case was reinvigorated as additional information came to light related to this homicide. specifically, duane davis's own admissions to his involvement in this homicide investigation that he provided to numerous different media outlets. >> for families and fans of shakur davis's arrest is bittersweet after waiting an agonizing 27 years for answers to the murder of an artist who impacted the lives of so many in the music industry. >> i miss my brother, so, you know, i'm glad something's happening. we're glad something's happening. >> reporter: cnn is attempting to locate attorney information for davis and suge knight. we learned an interesting detail on friday, a retired police officer who worked this investigation told our colleague that davis allegedly confessed to police in 2009, however that took place during a proffer session, that is when a prosecutor meets with a defendant, they agree to gather useful information from a witness or defendant but that information can't be used against that person. this former lapd officer saying it wasn't until later once davis started speaking publicly about this case that authorities had what he believed they needed to charge him. josh campbell, cnn, los angeles. cnn has confirmed that a french billionaire is being investigated for alleged money laundering. prosecutors are looking into questionable real estate transactions involving him and a russian oligarch. the french publication cited a person close to him who says the transaction was in compliance with the law. he's the world's second richest person behind elon musk, owns
