>> i'm afternoon scott. official live it's day one of the general election between hillary clinton and donald trump. an analysts say by all indications this campaign is going get ugly. clinton went after trump today at a rally in philly where just hours earlier she accepted the democratic nomination for president. >> if you listened really leslie to the republican convention, you know that donald trump talked for 75 minutes and did not offer one solution. in fact, his speech, his whole convention, seems more about insulting me instead of helping the american people. >> donald trump says he wanted to hit back at some of the speakers at the democratic convention, but a friend who is a governor, talked him out of it. >> said, you know, i'm going to hit some of these guys that hit me last night. he said, donald, don't do it. i said what? he said don't do it, donald. all you do is one thing. he just said -- he just said, do it. i think so too. but he said this is a professional politician who is smart. he said, donald, you have one person to beat. nobody else. and he said to me, crooked hillary clinton. he said to me, crook el hillary. >> trump never indiana. that for but it seems the republican nominee couldn't hold back from blasting michael bloomberg. the former new york mayor called him a dangerous demagogue at the dnc. trump today tweeted, quote, little michael bloomberg, who never had the guts to run for president, knows nothing about me. his last term as mayor was a disaster. we have team fox coverage, carl cameron is live in denver where trump is set to hold a rally tonight. first, mike emanuel live in philadelphia. what else did clinton say at a rally today? >> reporter: hillary clinton sounds like she is still on cloud nine after receiving the democratic nomination for president last night. clinton, he running mate, tim kaine and their spouses, including former president bill clinton, did a rally this afternoon here at temple, university, and clinton's focus has been on making the case for her vision of the future. >> what better place to kick off this campaign than right here in philadelphia, writ all started 2 -- where it all started 240 years ago. i believe with all my heart our founders came together to create one nation because they understood what we understand. we are stronger together. [cheers and applause] >> clinton noted that tomorrow marks 100 days until election day, so her campaign team is trying to use that time wisely in battleground states like pennsylvania and ohio this weekend. john? >> and tim kaine went after trump. huh? >> reporter: no question about that. put it's funny because tim kaine is not your typical attack dog in politics, but kaine said the election boils down to somebody who is a bridge builder in hillary clinton and what he called a trash talker in donald trump. >> the republican convention was like a twisted and negative tour. it wasn't a tour of this country. it was a journey through donald trump's mind and that's a very frightening place. a very frightening place. >> reporter: kaine says they'll be drawing a contrast between hillary clinton's plans and what he calls donald trump's empty promises. >> thank you. team fox coverage continues now. campaign carl cameron is live in ten very where trump is set to hold a rally tonight. how is trump responding to the clinton attacks last night, carl? >> reporter: pretty much as he has through the spire campaign. he called her crooked hillary, said her convention speech and the convention in philadelphia was a fabrication filled with lies. and he is, however, making a slight turn and acknowledging to audiences that his candidacy is going to need a little help. yesterday he admit ited hi is not doing at well with women as he'd like and says he has lots of women who like him but needs to do better with women. he also acknowledged there will be a time when hillary clinton will get a bit of a bounce in service of trying too whip up the people at the rally, against her, recognizing this is a close race. the poles are tied family. sometimes trump has an edge, sometimes hillary does, in this 1 1 to 150 or so battleground states, they're very close and you can limit it down to as men as 50 to 100 counties around the country and both of the campaigns are beginning to bear in on that. so, trump hasn't changed his rhetoric. mike pence his running mate, says he doesn't like the name calling and the personal insults, and yet crooked hillary is exactly what trump put in his tweets last night. tweeting throughout the hillary clinton speech. even when she said, anybody who can be baited on twitter, shouldn't have control of the nuclear codes. he was tweeting at her furiously through most of the night. >> so now we know it's the candidate, it's officially clinton against trump, is the trump campaign shifting here and. >> reporter: yes. it's obviously now just down to the two of themmor, heard donald say he wasn't going after others because a governor suggested he focus on hillary clinton. having said that we're in fairly uncharted territory, not just because of these two candidates and their unique unfavorability in the polls but also because this is going to be one of the longest full ticket campaigns in modern history. to put it into context we have beth of the conventions out of the way and we're in july. four years ago, mitt romney mits convention didn't happen until the last week of august, month from now. there's a lot more time in the campaign, which means there's a lot more room for the candidates to pivot and adjust as well as tighten up the screws on their opponent but it's 100 years from today. a longer general campaign we have seen in decades. >> that's a long time. thank you. let brain bring in deputy washington bureau chief for for "boston globe." what you see happening? >> a long -- everybody is counseling down the 60 days until the debate. the first debate is going to be pivotal, i think. for both sides. and i think there's a lot of activity that will happen between now and then. that's really the next marker for any big shift in the campaign. >> carl was just talking about negative campaigning, but the negatives about these two candidates are already very high. can they possibly go lower? >> both campaigns are going to try to make it lower for their opponent. you have two of me least popular candidates in history facing off against each other. they're both well-known in the public. the question for hillary clinton is whether the past four days has done anything to sort of rewrite her reputation, and i think we'll see that in a few days on whether it was successful or not after that convention. >> what would it take to get people to change their mind about hillary clinton and her attributes? she has been front and center in the public high for better than 20 years now. >> reporter: she is well-known. the question is the trust factor and what the campaign can do to put a softer edge on her. you saw that a little bit through the convention, of people who have had more intimate experiences with her. talk about the things she has done. the campaign needs to do more of that. you'll see she is giving an interview with fox news on sunday and has not had a press conference for quite some time. so her accessibility may need to change in order for her to have a different view in at the public's eye. >> trump was making hay out of that. it's been more than 300 days since she had press conference, going back to december. >> reporter: i think trump will continue to point that out she is not as accessible as him. he is very accessible and sometimes to his own detriment. but he has to his credit held numerous press conferences and answered a lot of questions about just about any subject. >> i was surprised in that report from carl just now, trump is admitting weakness among some voter segments, saying he has to do better with women. he has not typically admitted weakness in any area. >> that's one thing he needs to fix, last night, the images of hillary clinton being introduced by her daughter, the first female presidential nominee. it was an historic moment, and i think trump has a lot of work to do on female voters. hillary clinton has a lot of work to do on working class white males. she does not very well among men in the polls. whereas trump does. expect to see both campaigns kind of pivot a little bit as well as trying to rally their respeces. >> let's talk about which party is the better heeled. the republicans came into a convention with past presidents not attend, with the governor of ohio not attending. the democrats came in with the bernie vs. hilary fight still very raw. which party came out of it more united? >> reporter: it did seem on sunday and monday like the democrats were in a terrible position. debbie wassermann schultz resigning. the chairwoman of the tell creak party. so, you had democrats very divided at the beginning. after four days, though, it does seem after speaker after speaker, the president of the united states, the vice-president, at least the establishment portion of the democratic party, seemed to really unite and rally behind hillary clinton, in a way at that -- in a way that trump didn't. his campaign has never appealed to the establishment portion of the republican party and you didn't have the past major party officials at the republican convention in the same way you did at the democratic convention. so seemed like in terms of that, democrats were able to sort of emerging also more unified than republicans were. the question is how much that matters to donald trump and his campaign going forward. >> a very tight race and we have 102 days to go. thank you. thank you. >> now that they are officially presidentialom knees, donald trump and hillary clinton are set to start receiving intelligence briefings. each says the other one should not be trusted with national security secrets. we'll hear from the director of national intelligence and talk with a former cia military analyst.all of that, next. if you love crab and who doesn't then seize the day already. crabfest is back at red lobster with so many kinds of crab and the most crab dishes of the year. so dive into whatever floats your crab-loving boat. like crab lover's dream. crack open tender snow and king crab legs, and twirl creamy crab alfredo. or try the new alaska bairdi crab dinner. sweet and straight from the icy waters of alaska, you've gotta get it... to really get it. but it won't last forever, so hurry in. awwhawhwhawh ... this! this is why i love it here. that fresh air all up in your face. my cousin wilbur in the city has to wear a leash just to go for a stroll. i'm sorry, that...no. but with propane, you can live where you want and how you want. and since it's both clean and reliable, you could say propane is "man's best fuel." she knows what i'm talkin' about and you're talking to your doctor about your medication... this is humira. this is humira helping to relieve my pain and protect my joints from further damage. this is humira helping me go further. humira works for many adults. it targets and helps to block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to ra symptoms. doctors have been prescribing humira for over 13 years. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. ready for a new chapter? talk to your rheumatologist. this is humira at work. u.s. officials planning to give the first intelligence briefings to hillary clinton and donald trump as soon as next week. that's according to the reporting of "the new york times." the christian tom camp accused trump of encouraging espionage, this after trump said russia might be able to locate clinton's missing e-mails. trump said he was kidding and he says, clinton is the one who can't handle the briefings since she made the decision to use the private e-mail server in the first place. yesterday the director of national intelligence, james clapper, says there's no hesitation among intelligence officials to brief either clinton or trump and the decision is not even up to them. >> it's not up to the administration and certainly not up to me personally to decide on the suitability of a presidential candidate. >> current and former u.s. officials told "times" the candidates will not get all the secret information, just a broad overview. tara is a former cia military analyst and chow the spokesperson for the counter-extremism project. thank you for being here. >> thank you for having me. >> in broad strokes, give us what the breathings are about. they don't get into where we have clandestine operatives, that kind of thing? what are day talking be? >> presidential nominees have been being these a long time. truman started. eisenhower. this is what happens. they get high level intelligence assessments, analytical. trend lines, like what you see clapper give to open hearings on capitol hill. they'll get different topics and clapper said it will be focused on cyber accurate and russia. they're not going to be getting in the weeds covert operations, very highly compartmentalized intelligence. these are meant to prepare them so on day one day have an understanding what is going on, on the intelligence landscape, and i think everyone is quick toism on this and politicize is but but these have been going on for decades elm one want to be informed and to know the landscape so they don't potentially say anything that could be unintentionally provocative. >> that is one of the things that each candidate says the other is likely to spill secrets if they get these briefings, and i guess the question is whether the secrets they're going to be privy to are spillable? >> well, i trust the intelligence community and it is knopp political intelligence, career intelligence officials that do the briefings. they'll make the decision on what is the type of information that should go in these briefings. they'll tailor them to the candidates base it on their backgrounds and i trust there's not going to be anything that a -- that is going to be given -- cause a nuclear cries because they were given this information. we should leave this in the hands of the intelligent community. they have done this for presidential nominees throughout history, and while people on both sides may have have concerns it's something that is a necessary part of the political process and better than not having them have the information based on whoever is going to take office on day one. >> for instance, isis has been much discussed on the campaign trail. what would they be told about isis and the fight against that group? >> sure. obviously i'm not privy to the con trent of the briefings but i can speculate they would probably get briefings on the status of isis territory in syria and iraq. what that group numbers have looked like. trend lines, some sort of high-level understanding of military operations and which were more or less effective. they're not going to be getting -- the dni has said -- they don't get information on sources and methods. those are usually the real secrets in the intelligence community and that's not the type of in the weeds information that is going be given to the candidates. it's high level analytical assessments to give them context on major national security issues. >> harry reid, the democratic leader in the senate, suggested that donald trump ought to be given a fake briefing because he is not trustworthy. would anybody in the intelligence community go along with anything like that? >> i don't believe they're going to be giving anybody faint briefings. they're going to be giving the candidates the information they deem important to prepare them for the presidency without giving away highly, highly classified information on operations and methods or anything that could be problematic for the candidates to have throughout the campaign. think we should leave this in the hands of the intelligence community. think of blowback if they were to give away information that for some reason was problematic throughout the campaign. a lot of what they're going to be given is leadership assessments, terrorist groups assessments, isis related threats, potential success stories and failures and trip lines about area rous have seen the intelligence community focus on publicly. >> formerly a cia analyst, thank you. >> thank you. >> a u.s. air force surveillance plane made an emergency landing in russia. that's what a pentagon spokeswoman told fox news. she says the aircraft had a problem with its landing gear. happened earlier this week in eastern russia, near the border with china. the spokeswoman said the plane was making a routine flight, snapping photos of military sites. russian officials were onboard the flight as part of an inspection agreement between moscow and the u.s. nobody was hurt. police say they have surrounded the home of a possible suspect in killing of a cop late last night in san diego. another suspect is already in custody. more on the shooting and the standoff next. now she writes mostly in emoji. soon, she'll type the best essays in the entire 8th grade. get back to great. all hp ink buy one get one fifty percent off. office depot officemax. gear up for school. gear up for great. hi! hey! i've made plans for later in case this date doesn't go well. likewise! but, funny story. on top of that?

>> reporter: it's been going on for four hours now. at one point reporters on the scene heard a series of flash bangs. the house itself is completely surrounded. including a s.w.a.t. vehicle in the driveway, and police there have been using a bullhorn and appealing to a man who they appear to be calling marcos, or marcus. they have asked him to come out. they have said, quote, we can hear you coughing in there. let's not make this any more difficult. so they're trying to get him out. put he has stayed in place for several hours. so this is an ongoing and very tense situation involving what the police call a potential suspect in the two shootings of those officers. the first suspect was arrested at the scene last night. he suffered a gunshot wound and was taken away to a nearby hospital. he is said, jon to be in critical con. jon. >> the two officers who were shot, what do we know about them? >> reporter: well, they're both long-time veterans of the san diego police force. both members of the force's gang unit. the officer who was killed last night is john than deguzman. he had been with the san diego police force for some 16 years. he was married, and had two young children. here's the police chief, shelley simmerman. listen here. >> he is a loving, caring, husband, father, talks about his family all the time. this is gut-wrenching hem cared. he came to work every day wanting to make a positive difference in the lives of our community. last night he lost his life. >> reporter: the other officer who was shot is wade irwin, a nine-year veteran. he is also married, has a young child him was operated on through the night. his wife was at his bedside throughout that time, and we are told by the police chief that thankfully officer wade irwin is expected to survive. >> thank you. ahead, more politics and hillary clinton's pitch to american voters. how her speech last night stacked up to trump's and how the republican nominee is responding today. that's ahead. ♪ that's life. you diet. you exercise. and if you still need help lowering your blood sugar... ...this is jardiance. along with diet and exercise... jardiance works around the clock to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. this can help you lower blood sugar and a1c. and although it's not for weight loss or lowering systolic blood pressure, jardiance could help with both. jardiance can cause serious side effects, including dehydration. this may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, or lightheaded, or weak upon standing. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that can be life-threatening. symptoms include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tiredness, and trouble breathing. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of ketoacidosis or an allergic reaction. symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, swelling, and difficulty breathing or swallowing. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. other side effects are genital yeast infections, kidney problems, increased bad cholesterol, and urinary tract infections, which may be serious. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. so talk to your doctor about jardiance and visit jardiance.com. and get a free consultation with a certified diabetes educator if you qualify. gilman: go get it, marcus. go get it. ...coach gilman used his cash rewards credit card from bank of america to earn 1% cash back everywhere, every time. at places like the batting cages. ♪ [ crowd cheers ] 2% back at grocery stores and now at wholesale clubs. and 3% back on gas. which helped him give his players something extra. the cash rewards credit card from bank of america. more cash back for the things you buy most. i'm lea gabrielle. six state employee friday in michigan are facing charges including misconduct an the lead contaminated water crisis in ft. the state attorney general's office filed the charges today. the water has been unsafe to drink since the state officials changed the water supply to save money. a u.s. airman died in a training mission. happed light nsa. he was flying an f-18 hornet. the ma katrina corps is investigating the crash. >> after nearly four decades on the run the feds say they captured a fugitive wanted for murder. william taylor was on the fbi's most wanted list, accused of taking part in a shooting in 1977 which killed a federal foreclose and wounded the mayor of a small town in florida. the news continues with jon scott right after this. real is making new friends. amazing is getting this close. real is an animal rescue. amazing is over twenty-seven thousand of them. there's only one place where real and amazing live. book a seaworld vacation package and eat free.

day after accepting her historic presidential nomination. at an earlier rally in philly clinton kept hammering the themes of their speech. last night she went after donald trump and said the choice in this election is clear. >> now america is once again at a moment of reckoning. powerful forces are threatening to pull us apart. bonds of trust and respect are fraying. and just as with our founders, there are no guarantees. it truly is up to us. >> clinton continue to draw a contrast between herself and trump, questioning whether he is fit for the presidency. trump fired back on twitter, quote. hillary's vision is a borderless world where work people have no power, no jobs no safety. jennifer griffin is in harrisburg, pa, where clinton is set to hold a rally. why did they choose the route they're taking through pennsylvania and into ohio? >> reporter: essentially because these are two of the main battleground states. hillary clinton woke up this morning knowing she made history but also realizing she has 100 days to make her case. >> my friends, it is with humility, determination, and boundless confidence in america's promise, that i accept your nomination for president of the united states! >> reporter: she was introduced by her daughter, chelsea, powerful moment for mothers and daughters everywhere. she spent a lot of time dissecting donald trump and his fitness to be commander in chief with the hope that she may appeal to moderate republicans, especially women. we anticipated she would do that, and she did. >> he's taken the republican party a long way from morning in america to midnight in america. >> reporter: here in pennsylvania, she'll be making the case to blue collar republicans and blue collar democrats, answering what they want to know, which is why they've lost 271,000 jobs in the last 20 years here in pennsylvania. john? >> those acceptances speeches always depend on the echo chamber of the media. what's getting the most attention from last night? >> reporter: i would say by far and away the most attention is being given to the way the campaign choreographed the message with the u.s. military. you had a very powerful moment on stage where the father of an army captain, who was killed in iraq, who also happens to be muslim, -- how he talked about how donald trump had really -- would never have allowed his son into this country. he also asked donald trump whether he had ever visited arlington national cemetery? >> have you even read the united states constitution? i will gladly lend you my copy. >> reporter: then there was general john allen, the former top commander in afghanistan, a marine who passionately said u.s. armed forces would not be used for torture and then there was a metal of honor recipient who highlighted hillary clinton's work with wounded warriors when she was in senate, adding with her as commander in chief the u.s. will defeat isis. hillary clinton took a typically republican demographic and essentially used this military message to appeal to those voters that her campaign believes may in fact vote for her in november. jon? >> thank you. let's bring in john bussey. associate editor of "the wall street journal." ap calls her one of he most divisive and untrusted figures in american politics. how does she change that? >> what she has going for her and that's what makes this election so extraordinary is the feelings about donald trump nor different. these are two unpopular with they're -- not just the public but within their own party. they've got all this attention. what is happening now is the real thing. they're playing out the ground game toward the election. what they do now will be focusing on where they feel they have to garner the most voters, and in hillary's case, hillary clinton's case, this is among working class white voters. she tried to do that a bit in the convention, but now it's the real thing. that's what ohio is going to be about. that's what pennsylvania is going to be about. also going to go to omaha, nebraska. nebraska is a red state. but omaha went for obama. one of the two states where the congressional district allows voters to choose their elector for the electoral college, and the preference they gave to the candidates. so she may be able to pluck a vote out of nebraska so they're very strategically playing out their ground game. going to be fascinating to watch. >> on this bus trip through pennsylvania and ohio, what do you expect her to say? >> she's going to say what she said in the convention. she's going to play as donald trump will say, what he said in the convention, about her -- the lack of trust that the voter has in her, her experience level, all of the issues that donald trump raised in his acceptances speech. how'll hear her echo those on the road, about donald trump being fit for the presidency, or not fit for the presidency, about being able to baited with a tweet. turning his own language back at him. the sorts of things you saw in convention how to get funneled down into the ground game and selectively played out, not just by her but to her advantage, very robust asset of surrogates -- row but set of surrogates she'll have. >> singhing of surrogates there's no love lost between donald trump and john kashich, a popular good for of ohio, and makes you wonder whether some of the things trump said about kashich when kashich was a no, show, whether he might want to take some of that back now. >> you're right about that. it's going to be playing out. not just in ohio but also in utah. another red state, that hillary clinton is going to be visiting. why? because donald trump insulted mitt romney. questioning his mormonness in a state that is predominantly mormon. so he will be playing to see if she can turn that state which has gone republican, to a democratic win. >> all of that said. here's a woman who brings all these credentials. the president called her most prepared ever, even more than himself, when he took office. she has been on the national stage for decades. and yet donald trump, this upstart, political candidate, never run for political office before, has essentially tied her or may be ahead of her in many of the polls. >> that's right. this is really close and going to stay close down -- most likely it will stay close, unless they're a huge misstep by one they ever candidate. it will stay close right up to the election. the question you raise, how a person who has had slow indicated for change -- advocated for change, run as somebody who is seep as part of he establish independent the political machinery, it's not just donald trump. bernie sanders rose from essentially nowhere to be a really viable challenge to her. which shows howl the electorate right now wants something new, something fresh. she is arguing she is that, and that she is stability against donald trump's instability. >> but close 2070% of the people -- 70% of the people think the country is on the wrong track. that seems to argue against a third obama term. >> well, over 50% of people are gaving favorable ratings to president obama now, which is going to make him effective in the ground game as well. all of these cross-currents, data points, are now about to be applied in this ground game. running up to the election. and in an incredibly energized moment. you probably have a more kind of engaged public as a result of these two conventions and the primaries up to now, than you have had in years. >> buckle your seat belt. >> exactly. >> thank you. so, early ratings are just in for hillary clinton's speech last night. and they appear to show donald trump came out ahead by a couple of million viewers. according to nielsen, which measures these things, donald trump's speech pulled in 30 million -- i'm sorry -- 0 million viewers on broadcast and cable. that's compared to nearly 28 million estimated viewers for hillary clinton. but before the ratings came out, trump tried to distance himself from the convention. he told "the new york times" he liked both conventions and said, quote, i didn't produce our show. i just showed up for the final speech on thursday. vice-president joe biden taking another shot at acting. the white house says biden is here in new york city today to shoot an episode of law & order, special victims unit. officials say the episode focuses on the backlog of untested rape kits and stopping domestic violence. biden introduced the violence against women act while serving in the senate, creating new crimes and harsher punishments. no word on when nbc will air the episode. last year the vice-president played himself in another tv show, "parks and recreation." a stunning twist in the murder of a washington, dc intern who was reportedly having an affair with a congressman. remember chandra levy? prosecutors are dropping the charges against the man accused and convicted of killing her. what does this mean for the case and the former congressman, gary condit in we'll talk with a lawyer who worked as a prosecutor and defense attorney, next. chandra levy's mother says she is in shock after prosecutors dropped the case against the man convicted of killing he daughter. she told a tv station in california she just wants the truth. you remember, chandra levy. she was 24 years old, an intern in washington, dc when she disappeared 15 years ago the. she reportedly was having an affair with former california congressman gary can did. police later ruled him out as a suspect. condit's attorney said the decision to drop the case, quote, in no way alters the fact that mr. con did was completely exonerated by authorities in connection with ms. leavy's death in 2010, a judge sentenced ingmar guandique to 60 years in prison for killing livey, but last year the court grande him a new trial after a defense attorney says a key witness lied on the stand. prosecutors now say they cannot prove the case, quote, beyond a reasonable doubt, and a judge dismiss evidence it yesterday. prosecutors guandique is living in the country illegally and the feds plan to deport him back to el salvador. let's bring in a former defense attorney and former prosecutor. federal indicates normally are pretty airtight and for the federal government to drop a case, just like a hot potato, says an awful loud lott about the quality of evidence. >> you're right. especially a case that has garnered such press attention and is such a tragic case. she was murdered in 2001 and now 15 years later, the u.s. government is saying that the evidence they relied on to convict her murderer is not enough. >> but the physical evidence was always very thin. they didn't have fingerprints. they didn't have dna. anything that connected him to her murder. did they? >> that's right. it wasn't until 2010 that the defendant was charged with and ultimately convicted of the murder of chandra levy. so there was no fingerprints. there was no dna evidence. there was no anything except armando morales' statement, and he is a convicted felon, gang member who was cooperating with the government in exchange for a deal. >> and here's where it gets weird. earlier just this month, morale res apparently had gotten out of jail, out of prison, he meets a woman, she is a little hinky about him. starts recording their conversations, and during one of those conversations he says, yeah, i testified against ingmar guandique but i lied, and she has it on tape. >> she has it on tape. the viewers are probably thinking this irmore ridiculous than a fictional story. but there is a recording where he admits that he lied under oath in this case against guandique. so now the government is saying, our key witness, the primary evidence that supported the conviction, is not enough, clearly, because he is explaining -- admitting he has lied. >> that just happened this month. normally these cases move at a glacial pace. the government's case has collapsed. >> i have to wonder. the defendant is an illegal illen or undocumented, and he is previously convicted of other crimes. so he's not walking

venezuela investigation. it is the winwood, edge water, and mid-town neighborhoods where it's believed at least one, possibly more, mosquitoes are flying around biting people and spreading zika. of these four active cases two of the people live in miami-dade county, the other two live in broward county where fort lauderdale and is at this point the cdc is not recommending or planning to recommend any sort of travel ban to the tourist dependent state. >> now that florida is the first state to have a local transmission, likely through mosquitoes, we'll continue to put every resource available to fighting the spread of zika in our state. if it becomes clear more resources are needed, well not hesitate. >> reporter: health experts say the risk of contracting zika here in miami-dade county, they still believe, remains low, and in part that's because these specific types of mosquitoes simply don't fly more than 200 yards they're entire life. >> now they have people going door-to-door in these infected neighborhoods. >> ways, in the square mile and the neighborhoods where these people live, and zika kits are available to any pregnant florida resident who goes to the health department to ask for one. the mosquito control officers as well as workers with florida's department of health are now canvassing neighborhoods and spreading the word and taking voluntary urine and blood samples to test for zika as well as trapping mosquitoes in the affected area and taking them off to the lab for testing, and the good news on that, over the past two weeks all of the mosquitoes that have been captured in the traps have shown no zika virus, which helps lead health officials to suspect this may not be really widespread. best tip to prevent, drain all open water
