Lets begin this morning with Big Questions and outrage over the death in jail of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and what it means for his victims. Nbcs Morgan Radford is here with the latest developments morgan, development. Willie, good morning. The 66yearold convicted sex offender and disgraced financier was found dead by apparent suicide in his jail cell early saturday while in federal custody. Epstein, who was being held on sex trafficking charges was no longer on suicide watch and now investigators are wondering just how prison officials allowed this to happen as his accusers are left without their day in court this morning accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein bringing new grief to his alleged victims, even in death and he really stole a big forward of my life jennifer claimed epstein raped her when she was just 15 what he do to me was disgusting, and i know that justice will be served but the financiers apparent death by suicide robbed her and other alleged victims of the chance to face him in court. Arose expressing her anger in a statement. We have to live with the scars of his actions for the rest of our lives while he will never face the consequence of the crimes multiple Law Enforcement sources tell nbc news that epstein hanged himself in his manhattan jail cell saturday morning. Just three weeks ago, prison authorities found him injured with marks on his neck, possibly an attempt to take his own life. He was put on suicide watch, but taken off in less than a week. According to multiple Law Enforcement sources. Both the fbi and Inspector General are conducting investigations into the highprofile death attorney general william barr writing, i was appalled to learn that Jeffrey Epstein was found dead mr. Up stoons deathaises serious questions that must be answered the job of epsteins criminal defense lawyers is essentially over because the federal government doesnt prosecute deceased people. But one of his attorneys still mounting a vigorous defense. Releasing a scathing statement blaming epsteins death on overzealous prosecutors, pandering politicians and pandering press core adding all seem to have a share of mr. Epsteins blood on their hands. Epsteins death came a day after the release of documents from a 2015 case detailing sordid details of his seconds trafficking. Federal prosecutors are still pursuing the investigation so the accusers may yet have their day in court perhaps against Epstein Associates willie morgan, thank you very much well see you again in a few minutes. Lets bring in chief Investigative Reporter for new york station wnbc jonathan dienst hes been covering epstein for no one more plugged into new york law enforce thanks for being here the question everybody is asking is how, how could kuchibhotl sahigh profile inmate, perhaps one of the most high profile in the entire system of the United States be left unguarded, unwatched for so long he could take his own life. The first question how is going to come from the medical examiner because it is going to tell us officially how it appears. It appears by suicide at 6 30 yesterday morning. How was he left alone in his cell for some time hes supposed to be checked every 30 minutes were those checks being done as appropriate . Hes in a cell on his own. Its a steel door with one window guard is supposed to come by and check every 30 minutes was that enough time, a gap for him to take his own life there was an incident back in july, late july 23rd, where there was an apparent suicide attempt. It wasnt taken that seriously because it was a question whether there was a ruse to get transferred. It was looked into he was put on suicide watch. He convinced prison psychologists he was able to be returned to his cell being on suicide watch means youre in a cell by yourself, no sheets, no clothing, just a smock to wear. The conditions, he had been complaining about conditions in that prison for sometime again, the question why was the decision made to take him off suicide watch, youd have to ask the psychologist or psychiatrist who made those determinations along with the prison Management Resources could also be an issue. Did they have enough staff to watch him that closely for that amount of time if the psychologist said hes not that much of a risk of suicide. So perhaps a decision was made to move him back to this lone cell and check on him every 30 minutes. A lot of people are seeing something suspicious here. Ive heard it, youve heard it over the last 24 hours is there any evidence someone turned a blind eye or wasnt doing his or her job this that cell too early to know whether people did their job correctly obviously something went wrong because an inmate in federal custody is dead and there is a lot of disbelief this kind of high profile inmate that this could happen, inside the mcc, a praise on kno prison known for holding the most notorious prisoners el chapo was there as to whether something sinister happened deliberate, there is nothing to indicate that as of now. Sometimes a suicide is just a suicide. The question is how was he able to do this and not get noticed and not have it prevented. A lot of people want those answers. Prosecutors have promised to continue pursuing 9 charge. Thank you for being here a few hours after epsteins death President Trump weighed in sharing an unfounded Conspiracy Theory palomi theory speculating how the financier died quote, how does this happen . Jeffrey epstein had information on bill clinton and now hes dead again, the president retweeted that chuck todd is nbcs political director and moderator of meet the press. Chuck, good morning. I wish you and i could sit here and say were surprised the president retweeted that right away jumping to a Conspiracy Theory about his opponent in the last election and his family willie, think about what donald trump has done to american Mass Communication over the last two years im quite frankly appalled and embarrassed by the amount of responsible people that have jumped right into a Conspiracy Theory on this yes, the president is sort of leading the irresponsible charge here, but theres a lot of people on social media i mean, it is to the point where i think its way ahead of any investigation here i think it just shows you how particularly the president and the way he sort of warped information, attack the press, fake news, conspiracy theories, all of that stuff which hes embraced over the years, i think the fact is my biggest concern is you can tell this is a virus that is spreading. So lets set that aside with what the president did there because this is thats a horrendous virus as for epstein, look, i think youre seeing bipartisan outrage. Some senators who have been so mute on other issues, they see the epstein thing as an opportunity to say i get to be outraged about something and i dont have to make donald trump mad. So youre going to have some of those people coming after the Justice Department here. But youre also going to have others that are going to come after the Justice Department for what they believe. So i think bill barr is in the hot seat the entire Justice System is in the hot seat on this one, willie youd like to think the president of the United States would tamp down conspiracy theories, but hes elevating them lets talk, chuck, it was a week ago we talked about the shootings in el paso and dayton. The president of the United States said numerous times he wants to look at universal background checks. The nra is in his ear saying thats a bad idea. Mitch mcconnell said hemight consider it. Do you see any movement, chuck, or is this something they can filibuster away . The latter is the likely result background checks after the las vegas massacre, he said the same thing after parkland and each time the sort of the nra lobbying team got republicans to back off. This time it is slightly different, maybe and i say it for this reason the 2018 midterms, republicans got clobbered in the suburbs one of the conclusions strategists made was on the gun issue. Youre seeing a republican divide in the Republican Party in southern and rural politicians. Maybe if the president provides them cover it will due it, but i dont know if he will. We will see chuck, thank you very much woolfolk look for more on meet the press when chuck is joined by 2020 democratic president ial candidate Kamala Harris of california israelis fired tear gas at worshipping muslims. They were trying to head off a confrontation as tens of thousands of muslims arrived at a worship site along with at least four israeli officers four new york city emts are recovering this morning a day after two ambulances speeding to the same emergency slammed into each other in the middle of an intersection the incident caught on surveillance video, the cause of that crash is under investigation.

Our first high is a ray of light in the darkness of last week. It comes from an 11 years old sixth grader. We sat here hours after the mass shooti shooting. Ruben martinez lives in el paso. He was terrified of what happened. His mother, rose, told him he could not live in fear. He created the el paso challenge asking people in the city and ultimately across the country to commit 22 random acts of kindness in honor of the number of people who died in the shooting. I want to honor everyone who was killed and i want to make the world a better place. Rubens first good deed was to buy taco bell for First Responders at that walmart and the next day he brought roses for doctors and nurses at the hospital. He inspired people across the country to share their small act of kindness via social media whether cooking for coworkers or buying a stranger grocery. I love that he went out and did something to inspired other people. The message from his mom, you cant live in fear. Thats something we all need. Our first low is the roller coaster of emotions that you feel when an nfl player borrowed your bicycle for practices but crushes it. The Green Bay Packers had long traditions where the players rode bikes. J. J. Watt, one of the best guys in the league was in town and looking for a ride. He found one but it did not last long. Oyou are okay . Thats not big man. J. J. Promised to get the little packer fan a new bike. The bike i was using was not equipped for 290 pounds man. The seat broke off. We have purchased a new bike for the boy. I apologized for that. I got a new bike from j. J. Watt. I saw that coming. That bike was so small and that man was large. 290 pounds. I bet he was tripped out that j. J. Watt bought it. Our nextes to the man who brought his father home. Brian knight was noofive years when he waved goodbye to his father. Colonel roy jr. Knight. Colonel knight was shot down at laos and declared missing. After years of searching, knights remains were recovered near the site of his crash. On thursday, brian, now a pilot himself for Southwest Airlines flew his fathers remains back to the same place where as a little boy he last saw his dad 52 years ago. The busy airport in dallas came to a complete standstill as travelers paused silently to watch the homecoming. Fire trucks greeted the plane with the water cannon salute and workers stood to honor colonel knight. Brian spoke about his father on an emotional coming in a video. When i got the call, it was surreal. I really did not think it would ever happen. Wow. Hes really coming home. Hes really well be able to bring him back and well have a place where we can honor him. Colonel knight received full military honor upon landing. He was laid to rest in texas at long last. I have chills. The fact they got a phone call that we found your father 50 years later and to be in a position you are a pilot to fly your dad home. It is not just dad, it is the people saluting him. Thats america. It is a beautiful moment. Our final low goes to the house hunters who were swiping through the real estate prices and found a home in an unbeatable price with one small flaw. The house was on fire. The house looks like it is going to need a little tlc from chip and joanna. The house does have to be demolished but he points out, it located in a popular area. The burned down house was in the market for 99,000. But it feels like you got your way into a deal this one. Excellent marketing tactic. 99,000 for a house in flames. I want to run that back. It is no longer in flames. It is clearly burnt down. Wow. Morgan, thank you, well see you again in a minute. A sunday sitdown with one of hollywoods most charismatic stars, Tiffany Haddish climbing her way out of a difficult childhood. Her wild run over the last two years with her more dramatic turn.

Thanks for waking up with us. Im bigad shaban in for kira klapper, joined by vianey arana. We have a few from the top our sutro tower shot and once it peeks through, youre like there it is. Right now in San Francisco, this is what it looks like in the city, 56 degrees. Wind speeds 7 miles per hour. Not too windy. San jose, you can see the clouds up there p temperatures at 61 degrees, and in through today, were going to start our warming trend, so we have this fog early on. Well get some clearing, the fog will burn off and our temperatures are expected to climb into the 90s today and through the trivalley areas, some parts of far northern california, including ukiah, a look at napa 84. Oakland 76, san jose 85. Morgan hill 90 degrees and Half Moon Bay still in the 60s so thats still your goto spot. San francisco 70 degrees and this is just the start of our warming trend, as we head in towards the work week. We have High Pressure building in. That will set things up a little bit different as we head in toward monday, tuesday and wednesday. Ill have a closer look at how that will affect the next seven days coming up. A followup now to the plan to paint over a controversial mural at a San Francisco high school. The chronicle is reporting that San Francisco School Board President steve cook is proposing a compromise. Dont paint over it, just cover it with some panels, talking about the decades old mural of George Washington at the High School Named after him. Critics point out it includes images of slaves as well as a dead native american. In june the school board voted to paint over the artwork. That position sparked controversy. Now cook is proposing to cover the objectionable parts of the mural with panels. The school board will vote on cooks proposal on tuesday. And its official, all trans bay buses will return to the Sales Force Transit Center in San Francisco today. It was nearly a year ago when crews found large cracks in the flyover bus platform near fremont street. After being fixed in july, the lower level opened and San Francisco muni buses moved back. Today the upper level reopens and Ac Transit Service resumes. And for the second time in two days, rescue crews were called to a San Francisco cliff around 12 30 yesterday afternoon, two men hiking near fort funston decided to go over the edge but couldnt back up. By the time First Responders got there, one had reached safety. We respond out here a lot. A lot of times a dog will get over the side and the owner will try to go down and help him, but we find a lot of times we get the owner back up and the dog gets themselves back up, or somebody gets too close to the edge of the cliff and want to explore and find they cant get themselves back up. Fortunately no one was hurt. Still ahead on today in the bay, gaga and gilroy. Well tell you how the mega star is helping victims of the recent mass shooting, still ahead. Ouch, you bit me in the arm. Hey, hey thats Tiffany Haddish costarring with kevin hart in night school. The movie that made more than 1 billion at the box office. It began in the summer of 2017 with her breakout role in girls trip. As included in movies and television and commercials and a standup comedy commercial and hosting saturday night live. Haddish stars with Melissa Mccartney and Elizabeth Moss in the kitchen, a gangster movie, the three women took over the family mob business while their husbands are in prison. Tiffany and i got together this week in the reallife kitchen for a sunday sitdown. Tiffany haddish knows how to handle her business on screen and off. I have grown up around that type of environment. I know how you have to move around those type of men and how you need to communicate with them in order to demonstrate some sort of power. When i found out melissa was on and Elizabeth Moss is on oh this is about to be super fun. There was a small part of me like what if theyre like divas or super hollywood chicks. I know how to deal with those. I will be like hey and get off their face. And get out of there. You know . You didnt have to do that with them . Turns out they are weirdos just like me. We laughed a lot and did a lot of online shopping. I got them to try things they never had before like pickle dipped in coolaid. The 39 years old haddish grew up in South Central los angeles, her childhood was marked by pain. Tiffanys father left the family when she was three. She was still a young girl when her mother suffered brain damage in a car accident and became abuse s abu abusive. I heard a lot of comedians saying they had difficult childhood. Where does this shine come from . How were you able to be full of energy and laughter and life where you had so much trouble. I kind of escape from the trouble and to get rid of the darkness, you got to turn on the light. I feel like i am the light. Tiffany was 12 when she and her siblings were placed in foster homes. She began to see her light could take her places. I started working at the Energy Producer in high school. Somebody paid you 50 bucks and go to the party. It started out what low. But, yeah, they would pay me like to come to a bwedding or emcee. When tiffany was 15, her social worker gave her a choice. I was like which one got drugs . You will definitely be on drugs if you go to therapy. I went to the comedy camp. I want to be a huge star not physically but i want to be big. Here i am today, 20 something years later telling jokes. Haddish graduated from camp to the stand up stage. Those early years of comedy were not always filled with laughs. Tiffany was homeless and living out of a car when a fellow future star named kevin hart helped to change her life. I would always pull up like five or ten minutes late so nobody can see my car because i had all my clothes and everything and suitcases in the car. One day i pulled up a little late and he was there at the same exact time. What the hell is going on here . You live in your car . You cant be living in your car. I live in Beverly Hills and sleeping in Beverly Hills. The police wake me up every morning, okay . No, he gave me 300 bucks to find a place for the week and write out a list of goals and start accomplishing those goals. I started attacking those goals. Haddish began to land small roles on Television Shows like whos got jokes . I gave her five and thats so raven. In 2013, she played a reoccurring role in the bets Series Starring kevin hart. Look like your phone died. Tiffanys breakthrough came two years ago as dina in the 2017 movie girls trip. I just want to say hi, thats all. That fall of another big moment as haddish hosted saturday night live in a historic performance that earned her an award. Tiffany, you are a big star now, you are balling and i am looking at my bank account, ohuh. I made history. I am the first comedian to host. I knew Whoopi Goldberg did it but she appeared in sketches. She never hosted . Nope, the great and the best ever hosted. I listed every episode, oh, i am literally about to make history. I always wanted to be the first black woman to do something. Booyah. Do you stop and thinking wow, the last two years have been insane . I am praying and thankful, trying to find something good. Some days suck, i am tired as hell right now but i look good. She may be heading off next to japan. I have no idea what you just said. I went to japan and did comedy for the troops and started watching japanese television, man, this is entertaining, especially soap operas. I didnt see any black people on soap operas. What if i am the first africanamerican to be on the japanese soap opera. When i came back, i got pamphlets and japanese 101. I started playing it in the car during l. A. Traffic. I am just waiting for a call. We need to make this happen . T the kitchen is in theaters now. To hear the entire unedited interview with Tiffany Haddish and there is a lot in there. Check out our sundays sit down podcast. You can find it in our apple podcast. Next week we revisit the classic sunday sitdown with david letterman. We talk about the state of comedy. What hes been up to since he left the air and we did a little fly weve got a foggy start, not just in San Francisco. Take a look at our fog map right now. Weve got limited visibility in through santa rosa, as well as the santa cruz mountains, so if youre driving anywhere near napa town to about two miles, make sure to use your regular headlights and drive carefully. Microclimate highs expecting a warmup in through the hot interior valleys especially concord, antioch and livermore, talking upper 80s or low 90s. Mid 80s through the south bay. Next on sunday today, a question many have asked many times in the wake of mass shootings. Will something finally change . A group of politicians at the local level is not waiting for washington. We are bacin 60 seconds. K this is not just a headache. This is not just a fever. This is not just the flu. Its meningitis b. And youre not there to help. While meningitis b is uncommon. Once symptoms appear, they can progress quickly and can be fatal. Sometimes within 24 hours. Before you send your teen to college. Make sure you help protect them. Talk to your teens doctor. About meningitis b vaccination. Were going all in thion strawberries. Ra, at their reddest, ripest, they make everything better. Like our strawberry poppyseed salad and new strawberry summer caprese salad. Order online for delivery. Panera. Food as it should be in the days after another horrible shooting in el paso and dayt dayton, you will hear terms like universal background checks and red flag laws.

They are finding out why it is not so easy. Kerry sanders has our sundays spotlight. Reporter from el paso where a gunman killed 22 people. We have to stop and come up with some kinds of gun laws. D. J. Nichols was among the nine men that was gunned down. I am mad, something needs to be done. Demands for stricter gun control laws are once again in the talking stages of washington. We are talking to a lot of people. A lot of things are in the works. Reporter with washington grid look in the wake of these mass shootings, local mayors are saying enough is enough. I have no faith in this president and the u. S. Senate. I have no faith of the legislatures to do anything about this and it is left to us. Reporter it is not so easy for the mayors to do something in 45 states including pennsylvania, state laws we dont want allow local government to enact their own gun laws or ordinances. It is called preemption. It is designed to leave mayors out gun control debate. Reporter no one from the Gun Rights Group would appear on camera but in a statement says preemption holds everyone to the same standards that means lawabiding gun owners would turn to criminals when passing over imaginary border. In florida more than 400 municipalities, how can the gun owners know the patch work of hundreds of different gun laws. A gunman killed 17 at Marjorie Douglas high school. Al youthful outrage launched the movement. Register, educate. Vote reporter young and old demanding actions say they since learned any gun legislations get bogged down. What are your thoughts that local government cant touch this issue . It is ludicrous. Reporter what happens in one part of our Community Happens in the entire community. The mayor of westin tried to pass gun restrictions but he ran head onto preemption. Sth thats out of your personal pocket. Reporter before parkland, the mayor this was a real issue for me and what should not be on our street. Reporter hes battling preemption in court. Until a judges final decision cant do anything. Reporter you are powerless. It leaves you feeling that i have to give people thoughts and prayers. Reporter which leaves those demanding change once again back in washington.

Morrison wasborn the granddaughter of a slave and born poor in the 1930s and 40s in a ohio steel town after graduating from Howard University she became a College English professor. She took a job as an editor in the text division of random house publishing a short time later morrison was promoted to Senior Editor where she played a crucial role in cultivating africanamerican authors and elevating their voices into the american conversation morrison was nearly 40 years old when in 1970 she published a novel of her own, a classic called the blue est eye.
