Frustration and eshoo has expressed a very personal and political view of how we got to this Point Palo Alto is the base of public support for dr. Christine blasey ford. She is a resident who is also connected to Palo Alto University and stanford. Her friends have organized highprofile rallies and palo alto congresswoman anna eshoo was the first person dr. Ford contacted about her Sexual Assault allegation against Brett Kavanaugh. Eshoo says she Still Believes ford and bristled at the president s latest comments about ford. How did you get home . I dont remember. But you know, there is such a thing as decency. And he fails to rise to that level, which is sad for all of us. Reporter eshoo also brushed aside criticism she and senator feinstein waited to raise the issue until after kavanaugh went from candidate to nominee. Eshoo points out that only took three days and at that point ford wanted anonymity. Would it have been possible for her complaint to go forward without her being known . Well, i believe that senator feinstein attempted to find an avenue but that door was closed because dr. Fords identity had to be revealed. In retrospect, do you had i it would have made a difference in terms of watching the way the process has gone . I dont think so. Reporter eshoo says with the vote looming its time for senators to focus on judge kavanaughs overall behavior. Belligerent, disrespectful, really his words dripping with poison about in a partisan way. His grudges. I dont know who would really want to go into his court. President s comments last night and the scrutiny of kavanaughs testimony could still stall a e the fbi investigation. Live in san jose, robert handa, nbc bay area news. Thank you, robert.

Nbc bay areas Jodi Hernandez joins us in san leandro this evening. Jodi, where did these secret recordings a4re7b8llegedly happ . Reporter raj, investigators say thodiseecs took place inside this sheriffs substation in san leandro back in march when four juvenile suspects were brought in for questioning. Tonight it is a deputy who faces tough questions and felony charges. So usually we sit our suspect here. Reporter Sergeant Ray Kelly shows us the Interview Room where prosecutors say a veteran Alameda County sheriffs deputy secretly recorded juvenile suspects as they talked to their attorneys. Conversations that by law are supposed to be confidential. We all know, all of us who work in the criminal justice system, that the attorneyclient privilege is sacrosanct and it is a crime to violate that privilege. Reporter now the District Attorney office has filed four felony eavesdropping charges against sergea russell. They say russells own body camera video shows him telling his lieutenant he was recording the juveniles. Wellp if we record we just say that it was its just something that they cant its not admissible. We want to reassure people this will not happen again, that we have taken necessary steps in place, and we are doing continuous training in regards to this subject. Reporter the Alameda County Sheriffs Department says having a fellow deputy facing criminal charges is rough but has put others on notice. The Department Plans to add special attorneyclient Interview Rooms to their substations to help ensure no more. It will have specific signage that shows people that it is an attorneyclient privileged area and that no recordings will be allowed. Reporter now, the d. A. s office has dismissed charges against all four of the juveniles and is reviewing every tape, every juvenile case submitted by the Sheriffs Department since the beginning of the year. Whourt on october 17th. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison. In san leandro, im Jodi Hernandez, nbc bay area news. Jodi, thank you. An east bay man accused of murder has confessed to the crime. Court documents claim Anthony Pimentel admitted he killed his exgirlfriend. He also told police he covered her body with branches and drove off in her car. 18yearold mariah davis went missing last week. On monday pimentel led police to an unidentified body near like chabot dam in san leandro. Mariahs family says theyve been told it is their loved one. However, investigators have yet to publicly confirm that. Well, that mysterious crack in the Millennium Tower window it turns out has nothing to do with the fact that that building is leaning and sinking. Thats according to a Consulting Firm, which says something hit the window on the outside up on the 36th floor. Investigative reporter jaxonder second opinion. Reporter nbc bay area was the first to report how the 36th floor window suddenly cracked over labor day. But this report by a palo altobased Consulting Firm rules out tilting as the cause. It concludes an unknown object hit the exterior and identified this as the point of impact. Consultants allana buick bers found nothing wrong with the actual window and conclude the towers sinking and tilting played no role. A second consultant working for the homeowners agrees. But city supervisor aaron peskin does not. This report is frankly bizarre. It comes to a conclusion that this was that the window cracking was due to an external impact, but they give absolutely no evidence whatsoever that anybody can rely on. Reporter the Homeowners Association has written a letter to the city, asking to take down protective scaffolding on the sidewalk below and cancel cityordered inspections on hundreds of other windows, saying theres no longer any need. Williams strong is spokesman for the department of building inspection. They may be expressing a particular desire, but whether or not staff agrees with that i guess remains to be seen. Reporter supervisor peskin has already made up his mind after reviewing the abb report. He says hes troubled the consultants relied heavily on findings about windows on the side of the tower affected the least by tilting. We all want this to be a oneoff event. We hope that its not a function of the buildings continued settlement and tilting. But we need a independent report. I am not taking a. B. B. s word for it. Our department of building inspection needs to insist that a second report be done. Reporter but strong says the city is not in the habit of seeking second opinions. Typically, because engineers are licensed by the state, we do give them credibility. Their license is on the line when they make recommendations. And i think the presumption has always been that yes, of course theyre giving professional evaluation that is justworthy. Reporter jaxon van derbeken, nbc bay area news. Okay. Do you have a problem with San Franciscos dirty streets . Now theres an app for that. Well introduce you to the man behind snapcrap. Also its Opening Night for the sharks. Expectations are skyhigh. Not just for the team but for local businesses as well. Storm ranger shows more rain off to the south. The jerry browo a shift in california is about to happen. The jerry brown era is about to come to an end. So who will be our next governor . Voters will decide next month between republican businessman john cox and democratic Lieutenant Governor gavin newsom. Will this be a onesided election, though . Maybe not. Nbc bay areas sam brock joins us in San Francisco with an inside look at this highprofile race. Sam . Reporter raj, you know, gavin newsom first gained a National Profile as the mayor of San Francisco when he took on the federal government over Marriage Equality. And to this day our relationship with washington continues to be a very important part of this race. Are we so worried about washington if were having trouble running this state properly . Sizing up his chances at the bay Area Business community. In a state where half the people want to leave i think were pretty good. Reporter john cox recently called out california fire housing and cost of living crunch that spun out of control. Reason our poverty rate is high or the highest in the country is the cost of housing. Period. Full stop. Reporter Lieutenant Governor gavin newsom shares the same top concern and also wants to pump millions of homes into a starved market. That may be where thehink he is quintessential person for california right now. Reporter james taylor, professor of politics at the university of San Francisco, says newsoms bone to pick with washington, d. C. Captures a kind of spirit right now in california. Its almost like an inven al the sort of front line oppositionrniaas flipped the script. Ill be a wartime governor. Im not timid. I lean in. Im going to be audacious and bold to have the backs of the people of this state. And the people of california are crying out for change. Reporter cox counters that fights over immigration and Marriage Equality are not serving constituents. Instead he says look at the states failing agencies like the dmv or a highspeed rail project demanding billions of dollars. Yet our firefighters are flying 1970sera helicopters that barely can fight fires. Its all across this government mismanagement. Reporter whether its a fiscal message that prevails or fuel for social change and advocacy for those most vulnerable, that may be the storyline of the gubernatorial race. In San Francisco sam brock, nbc bay area news. Theres a lot happening on the upcoming election day. That is in november. And even before that for everyone mailing in their ballots. Were posting excerpts of the cox and newsom interviews right there on our website tonight. Well be doing that. Thats at nbcbayarea. Com. Theres a new app and it has a very blunt name and its hoping to make it easier to report nasty discoveries on San Francisco streets. Dont be offended, but the app is called snapcrap. And it was created by City Resident shawn miller. He says the app offers a more streamlined way for people to report human and animal waste on the citys 311 system. It uses gps to identify your location and offers dropdown menus to answer some key questions. Miller says his goal isnt to undermine the citys reporting system, he just wants to try to simplify it. You have to add a comment, you have to select an object. All that sort of thing. My app is specifically for street and sidewalk cleaning for human and animal waste. So you literally take a picture and press send. Reporter the citys public works Department Says the city averages about 10,000 cleaning requests a month and about 1,300 are related to human or animal waste. Its a bay areawide problem. How do we keep our teachers in this skyhigh Housing Market . A South Bay School district is now taking action. The district is considering a plan to convert some of its schools into Affordable Housing for employees. San jose unified wants to build newer, better schools on nearby undeveloped land that the district owns. Some people are upset that brett Hart Middle School and Leland High School are on a list of schools that could be converted. You uproot the schools out of the area its definitely going to affect property values. We have the same incentive to maintain property values. School districts are funded through property taxes. The district is holding a Public Meeting this evening at leland high about these proposals and says no definitive decisions have been made and these changes would take several years to make. It is an annual event that always catches a lot of attention. Military ships crowding San Franciscos bay for fleet week. Sky ranger had a look today from above. The event celebrates the bay areas naval history and pays tribute to the armed forces. It also draws more than a million visitors to the city each year. The annual parade of ships will happen friday.

Theres a live look at the shark tank in downtown san jose where were a little more than an hour away from the puck dropping on a brand new hockey season. The sharks are considered one of the favorites to win the that thats Erik Karlsson who they made a bigtime trade for from the ottawa senators. As for businesses around the shark tank theyre glad hockey is back as well. That includes a key stop for sharks fans off the ice, the popular britannia arms. The owners of the pub say about half of its revenue comes during hockey season. Theres definitely more competition downtown than there was 15 years ago. So that taking consideration. You move with the times, make things more current for us, which is our menu and what we do with service. But other than that we anticipate the same sharks season and we anticipate a good year. Okay. The party starts right about now. The sharks host the ducks this evening. Colin resch will join us later in this newscast with more on the big game tonight. All right. Lets bring in meteorologist jeff ranieri, talk about this change in the weather. Its long sleeve weather awful a sudden. Yeah, the breeze kicks up and it feels a little cooler out there today.

Thats cleared out, but look at this. Another round of wet weather developing off to the south. And we could actually see this hold up, make it into morgan hill by 6 53. Possibly areas just to the north as we head into the 7 00 hour. When does all this clear out . Lets go ahead and get a look. Tomorrow morning just a few spotty showers, mainly the clouds. Once we hit tomorrow afternoon theres your Sunshine Building in also. Some comfortable temperatures. Lets get a look. Low 70s here, up into the north bay. Mid 70s for the east bay. Concord at 75. Morgan hill also 75. Oakland 70 and your 60s from San Francisco to half moon bay. Coming up at 6 48 tonight well talk about this building area of High Pressure to bring our next change by this weekend and how this is going to create some gusty winds for us and how high those gusts could be. Well see you at 6 48. Well see you then. Thank you, jeff. Up next, fined by the s. E. C. And kicked off the board. Elon musks ultimatum to tesla before the feds give him a second chance. In an emergency, minutes can mean the difference between life and death. Proposition 11 saves lives by ensuring medical care is not delayed in an emergency. Proposition 11 establishes into law the longstanding industry practice and requires they receive fema level training and active shooters and natural disasters. Vote yes on 11 to ensure 911 Emergency Care is there when you or your love one need it. A lot more behindthescenes drama with tesla. Were learning tonight that elon musk initially balked at the settlement tesla reached with federal regulators just last week. The s. E. C. Had filed a lawsuit against musk accusing him of fraud. Cnbc reporting musk actually threatened to quit when he was told that the s. E. C. Demanded he step down as chairman as part of that settlement. Now, the fraud charges stem from musks tweet that he was considering taking the company private. Musk was both the companys ceo and chairman of the p board. Ultimately, elon musk accepted the settlement with the s. E. C. Actually adding a third year to his ban as chairman of the board. Musk does remain as the companys ceo. A global pharmaceutical giant is making cutbacks and that impact is having an impact on the bay area. Bayer pharmaceuticals said it is laying off more than 200 employees at its plant in berkeley. In a statement bayer says the layoffs come as its transitioning its products and that results in needs to cut back in some areas. Berkeley has been bayers biotechnology manufacturing hub for more than 40 years now. Also in the bay area cutbacks at one of the most popular breweries. Lag nooetas Brewing Company announced it is cutting its fothewe which was founded in petaluma has about 900 employees. It was recently purchased by heineken. Lag nooetas says its decision to downsize is due to sidelining sales and more competitors entering the beer market. Up next here at 6 00, inappropriate and unacceptable. The republican senators who are criticizing President Trump for seemingly mocking dr. Christine blasey ford. Fire destroys their fireproof safe. What does fireproof really mean . Im consumer investigator chris kimora. Nbc bay area responds, next. Many p and stick their fingers. Repeatedly. Today, lifechanging technology from abbott makes it possible to track glucose levels. Without drawing a drop of blood, again and again. The most personal technology, is technology with the power to change your life. Life. To the fullest. Right now at 6 30, from the steps of the Supreme Court to san jose. Nationwide rallies calling for the he senate to reject the nomination of judge Brett Kavanaugh. Those protests come after President Trump offered a new criticism of Christine Blasey ford. The palo alto woman accusing the judge of Sexual Assault. Many believe the president was mocking her last night to cheering crowd. Nbc bay areas Marianne Favro attended one of todays protests, spoke oSexual Assault counselors, and they worry the president s comments could send victims into the shadows. Reporter during a rally last night in mississippi President Trump commented on the testimony of dr. Christine blasey ford, the palo alto mother who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of Sexual Assault. Many see it as the president mocking a victim. To a cheering crowd. How did you get home . I dont remember. Howd you get there . I dont remember. Where is the place . I dont remember. How many years ago was it . I dont know. Reporter dangerous words, says erica elliott, the sexual asxault Prevention Program manager at Community Solutions in the south bay. I think again, it sends a message that for survivors that you could be called into question, that youre not credible and that youre not going to be believed and theres this idea that when youre coming forward these are the things you have to deal with. And that creates silence. Reporter she also says the president and the public need to understand the comrexes the complexities of trauma. Are its not uncommon that survivors cant remember all the details. Facts included in special prosecutor rachel mitchells re needs to be done to stop victim shaming. That was Marianne Favro reporting. Since dr. Ford first came ford last month the ywca says it has seen a spike in the number of other Sexual Assault victims stepping forward. In new york state tax investigators are looking into a bombshell New York Times report which claims that the president and his family used questionable tax schemes and fraud to hide income from the irs. Its one of the longest reports in the newspapers history. The times outlines a pattern of what it calls deception which start whend President Trumps father transferred a billion dollars in wealth to his children. The investigation shows enabled the family to dodge a half billiondollar tax bill and pay just 52 million. It also refutes President Trumps claim that he built his empire on a 1 million loan from his father. The times reporters claim the president received the equivalent of 413 million. The narrative of donald trump as a selfmade man is just not true. A lot of people voted for him on the idea hes this smart businessman and hes going to bring those principles to the white house. The president today called the article an old, boring and often told hit piece. And while the statute of limitations has expired on possible violations experts say the president could be on the hook for tens of millions of dollars in civil fines. Well, next week marks one year since the north bay fires. We saw our neighbors and friends lose irreplaceable items, photos, documents, and even family heirlooms. It turns out a lot of those items burned in what people thought were fireproof safes. Thats what the homeowners thought when they put their precious things in there. But they found out that fireproof doesnt necessarily mean fireproof. Our consumer investigator chris chmura has been working a lot with north bay fire victims and he joins us tonight, and that is such a disappointment to those north bay fire victims, chris. Not just surprised too. Despite what the label or advertising might say, fireproof safes can and do melt. North bay fire victims learned firsthand that fireproofmitatio. Are is. Mike cobb is rebuilding his home from. I lucky to get out with my family and dogs and cats but none of my possessions. He lost everything, including two safes. Both of them just completely disintegrated. Reporter that he figured were fireproof. Well, you couldnt recognize it. So it was basically just the bottom that i can tell was the safe and the top was this crumbly material. It melted. It melted. Absolutely. Just disintegrated. Melted, yeah. Reporter sam brinker hoffs safe melted in the north bay fires too. She says her safe was also supposed to be fireproof. Supposed to be. Reporter take a look online. Many safes are marketed as fireproof. But what does that word mean . It turns out the u. S. Fire administration and the National Institutes of standards and technology dont define or regulate the term fireproof. So we called seven u. S. Safe companies that advertise fireproof safes. We asked for their definition of fireproof. We got five different answers including an arizona maker following a swedish definition, a South Carolina Company Using chinese criteria, and a korean benchmark. Some safe makers indicate their products meet a u. L. Standard. U. L. Stands for underwriters laboratory, in chicago. Its engineers conduct safety tests on everything from microwaves to patio doors. They push products to their limits. Thu l. V this u. L. Video shows how it grades safes, in a massive furnace to heats up to 2,000 degrees. Safes that survive can earn a u. L. Seal. But u. L. Told us those safes should be labeled fire resistant, notfireproof. Heres another thing. U. L. Says most consumergrade safes are only rated for 30 to 60 minutes of fire endurance. Thats ampleandalone house fir firefighters usually respond quickly. But in wildfires like the north bay, entire neighborhoods ignite. Overwhelming fire crews. Homes can burn longer, like sams and mikes likely did, melting their fireproof safes. Even though it says fireproof, its fireproof for like a kitchen fire or something, not the kind of fire that came through here. Reporter should you trust the word fireproof . The American Society for testing and materials says no. It sets voluntary standards for many products and calls fireproof an inappropriate and misleading term. So whats a consumer to do . You do want to do research. We agree with mike. Ask the safe manufacturer how long your model can withstand a fire. Then ask yourself, should your familys Fire Evacuation plan include a few seconds if its safe to take irreplaceable items out of your safe . I now realize how much i didnt know, that it was not fireproof. I mean, it is, but up to a certain point. Heres another option. Consider choosing a portable safe that you can take with you when you evacuate. Of course that allows the thieves who might break into your home to also take it with them. So perhaps figure it out in the evacuation plan. When you think youre covered, you think youve covered all bases, and then youre not. Yeah. The first time we saw this we heard somebody on tv saying my safe melted. And we said, what . How does that happen . Especially when its all over the advertising. Do the resu, h,chris.

At this point we dont have a description of who may be taelg those phones. Anything to help our traffic. Relief could be under way for one of the bay areas top ten worst commutes. Check out the map here. A new 11mile express lane from marina vista in martinez to ruddgear in walnut creek. Project leaders broke ground on this expressway this morning. One its completed there will be a 24milelong express lane on southbound 680, making its longest express lane in the bay area. Critics say the lanes favor the rich and penalize the poor. But leaders say thats simply not true. The most prevalent user of that lane is actually the people that actually do work for a living. Lets say theyve got to pick up their kids or theyve got to go do that one extra job. At the end of the day its just a choice. Its expected that this new 11mile express lane could cut about 20 minutes off of a commute down southbound 680. The lane is scheduled to open at the end of 2021. Also in the south bay 237. Theyre converting existing carpool lanes so people can pay using fast track. Vta is also considering what it calls a toll ordinance that would give electric cars and carpools a discount to use these lanes. The lanes are scheduled to open next fall. Lets bring in jeff ranieri. It is starting to feel like fall all of a sudden. We have a transition. It definitely is. A little bit of rain out there right now. You can see on storm ranger and local doppler radar. Pleasanton and dublin getting wet. Well let you know where this is headed and when all this clears out. Coming up in a few minutes. And if you own a cell phone you probably got the alert. The reason behind the emergency test from President Trump sent to everyones phone today. We have some breaking news on the fbi investigation into Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. In the past few minutes nbc news has learned that senators will begin viewing the results of that supplemental Background Investigation beginning tomorrow morning. So really essentially the fbi investigation is wrapping you p leadership has no plans it omake that fbi report public. The result is expected to include 302s which are summaries of interviews that agents conducted as part of the expanded investigation. The Judiciary Committee of the senate had set a friday deadline for those reports to be ready. Well, a message from President Trump had millions of americans buzzing today. It was a text from femas president ial alert system. It was only a test but it was enough to get a lot of people rattled. Nbc bay areas melissa colorado joins us in berkeley with more on what we can anticipate if the system is ever needed for a new emergency. Melissa. Reporter the intersection of bancroft and telegraph avenues always buzzing with activities here at the uc Berkeley Campus but at 11 18 this morning phones started ringing and buzzing. Students looked at their screens and asked their friends if they do got the national text. It just says this is a test of the National Emergency alert system. No action is needed. Reporter it might be the biggest drill in american history. Today fema tested out the president ial alert system by texting 75 of all mobile phones in america, across all major carriers. I was scared of what was happening. But it was just a practice round i guess for them. Reporter the warnings are for extreme situations only, like terror attacks, natural disasters, or an incoming missing attack. Unlike amber alerts and weather alerts, these are texts you cannot block. It is efficient in getting the word across because everyone is using their phone, everyones on their phone. So i understand why they would do it. Reporter and unlike President Trumps tweets the president does not directly send the messages. These alerts are not supposed to be political. This is a test. Reporter in the event of an actual emergency the president ial alert will include whats he going to consider and instructions for how to as a National Emergency . Respond a safe. Uc Berkeley Student darcy clark says she did not receive an alert. Shes not alone. On twitter many at t users complained to the carrier that they did not receive the text. At t responded by saying there is an issue affecting Wireless Data Services for customers on the west coast. The company said the issue is not related to the president ial text alert. Most Emergency Call Centers here in the east bay did not see a change in call volumes but over in marin county one person dialed 911 to tell dispatch that they got the alert, what now . Two other people also in marin county contacted authorities to complain they did not receive the alert. Thats the latest here in berkeley. Im melissa colorado, nbc bay area news. That was very interesting. We were reporting that this was going to happen last night, we said it, and yet this morning i think we were all like whoa, its happening. It was loud too. It came through. Oh, man. Rain . Well, weve got a few alerts for folks that are doing any traveling tonight. Picking up on storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar. Lets go ahead and bring to you that and our microclimate forecast. Most of the activity has been through the East San Jose foothills at least earlier this afternoon and through parts of the east bay as far out as tracy. You can see where most of the lightning strikes are right now, moving into the central valley. Well take you into the toptwo top spots were watching. The first one right hoo err in in pleasanton. We have some rainfall coming down right now right across that 580 corridor. We know how busy that usually is this time of the night. Its just going to make the traffic at a crawl. If youre expecting anyone theyre going to be even slower likely than normal. This is all moving off to the north. This would continue likely to hold off on rain tonight. The second zone were watching is off to the south. While we did get a little rain in the south bay today theres another area bubbling up. Its going to be hard for us to Stay Together because of the higher elevations. Its to steal a lot of the moisture. But theres a chance this could continue into morgan hill by 7 15. Maybe even san jose. Through tomorrow morning we see a lot of our chances pretty much go down to zero. Teeratures in the 60s and we have the clouds with us. That will bring to us 64 in the trivalley and 63 in the south bay. Also and a slight chance for the east bay 123ris, and the north bay. Through the day tomorrow numbers cooling off a couple of degrees. As the storm pulls on out of here. Less humidity as well p. 75 in morgan hill, 71 cupertino. Across the east bay 74 pittsburg, 75 danville. Not much of a change as you go close to the ba the peninsula also looking beautiful. Redwood city may support some of the fleet week stuff happening. We have 60s from the marina right over to the mission. And across theginng to dry out half to over an inch of rain. Should be a much nicer afternoon at 72 in sonoma. Im going to go ahead and fast forward things into the next weather change we see happening and the problem with what could be moving in. We have two Different Things that are going to be occurring. We have High Pressure building in the pacific. We have low pressure developing across the four corners. Thats important because these two things are going to interact. Air flows from High Pressure to low pressure. This is going to create a vacuum as this area moves from High Pressure to low pressure its going to pull this area across Northern California and its going to create a dry northnortheasterly wind for the bay area. We think once we hit saturday night and sunday. Thats going to increase the fire threat. Gusts right now 15 to 35 miles per hour, may prompt a red flag fire warning. And you can see 72 here in San Francisco. Ee d weather for the land valle to 84 on sunday as that dryer and warmer air builds in and also lowers down the humidity.
