lawsuit against the boys, the complaint says that because its lyrics poke fun at the original song it's a parody making it fare use. >> i think it's ultimate lick unlikely to be -- unlikely to be considered fair use. >> reporter: the court may not rule in the company's favor because the video is an ad. >> the court's going to look and say this is something that where they could have gotten a

the locked school. also new details about his life including a preoccupation with mass shootings in particular the columbine shootings. before the shooting, lanza's mother nancy became concerned that her son hadn't gone anywhere in three months. and would only communicate with her by e-mail. lanza was diagnosed with asperger's. doctors described him as presenting with significant social impairment and extreme anxiety. he was also noted that he lacked empathy. but those doctors did not see anything that would have predicted his future behavior. allen martin, kpix 5. >> a report from the

generally. although we've had a couple of 30s showing up in the interior valleys. this afternoon a mix of sun and clouds and the temperatures generally in the 60s. so a mild afternoon again around the bay area with some hazy sunshine. high pressure now breaking down and sliding a little bit further to the east. you see the first system starting to work that ridge further east and bringing with it a few high clouds for today but it's rather weak system. behind that we've got what's going to become a cutoff low that's doing to spin off the coastline and move near the coast near the bay area maybe enough to bring us a few showers. then that will sweep down into southern california. in the meantime around the state, about 53 degrees and partly cloudy in lake tahoe and 63-degrees in yosemite.
