i don't have a gas mask. >> clash, officers. >> they're jumping on top of they've got the entire intersection blocked. we're going to need units down here really quick. >> members of scott's family told local news outlets that he was not armed. instead, they say he had been clutching a book while waitinging to pick up a child after school. a woman who has been identified as a family member of the victim had this to say. >> he didn't have no gun. he wasn't messing with nobody. they said hands up. he got a gun. it. >> officials say at least a dozen officers suffered nonlife threatening injuries during the protests. now, that was a street sweeper just came by a few moments ago cleaning up some of the debris, the rocks, the bottles left over from the overnight protests. now, the police officer who shot scott was identified tuesday afternoon -- tuesday night, i should say, as brenley vinson, the two-year veteran of th african-american, has been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. matt, savannah, back to you. >> chris klackum down in charlotte. thank you very much. federal terror charges have now been filed against the suspect in those bombing and bombing attempts here in new york and new jersey. this is his personal journal revealed much more about a possible motive in the case. let's begin our coverage with good morning to you. >> savannah, good morning. that new criminal complaint says the fbi began watching ahmad rahami outside of his home the day after the bombing. it says he was worried he would be captured before he, quote, carries off his jihad. >> today, the bombing of public places, new details emerging from his criminal complaint. the fbi says bombs in june, buying some stems items on ebay under his own name. the day of the bombings, rahami drove himself into manhattan through the lincoln tunnel. the ieds injured approximately 31 people in new york. one victim had to have multiple ball bearings removed from her body. after a shoot-out with police, investigators say they found a bullet pierced journal on inside you usa government continue your lawsuiters against the mujahidean, be it iraq -- he also praised osama bin laden and the journal says with god willing, the sounds of the bombs will be heard in the streets, gunshots to on your police. death to your oppression. tuesday, rahami's father, mohammed, confirmed he spoke the fbi in 2014. a neighbor told police mohammed called his son a terrorist after ahmad stabbed his brother in the leg during a fight. mohamed rahami later told the fbi he was just angry and had no reason to think his son was a terrorist. with the officers rahami is accused of woupgd now released from the hospital -- >> how are you feeling? >> i'm feeling like i got shot. i'm glad to be alive. i'm glad to be home. into the suspect's frequent visits to pakistan and afghanistan. in 2011, rahami married asia bi by raham had i. she was living in pakistan and granted a visa to enter the u.s. overseas when the bombing occurred, she's been questioned by investigators in the united arab emirates, denying any prior knowledge of the attacks, according to a senior law enforcement official. >> we have nothing to indicate at this point that she's involved. >> this morning, a clearer picture of the suspect, investigators paint as anti-american and ready to kill. >> the criminal complaint also says raham had i watched jihad videos from his social media account and added a family member took cell phone video of him inside his backyard using incendiary devices. back to you. >> thank you. nbc news analyst once served as the deputy national security adviser under president george >> you were asked about whether raham had i acted alone or whether he had help. we're 24 hours further into this right now. based on what you've heard or read, are you moving in either direction on that? >> it's clear there's more suspicion around the family, especially given the information about this individual crow taken at the home two days prior to the attack. which seems to be some sort of test of the incendiary device. so that begins to raise questions as to whether or not the family knew more than has be and certainly suggests, as we talked about yesterday, matt, that this was not a hermit terrorist. this was an individual who was still living with his family and not hiding his views. >> even as you say that, juan, we know there was tension between the son and the father. and knowing about unusual activity is different than helping someone. >> absolutely right. and we've got to be very careful about that. but no doubt, authorities are looking very closely at the time, these terrorists, even if family members aren't aware, sometimes have social networks of some sort that are supporting the cause. so i think we have to be careful about the lone wolf narrative and mythology because often these are individuals that have some degree of support. >> and we now know, juan, that there was contact with this individual in the sense of talking to the family members after a report about a domestic violence incident, databases, the fbi said it did an assessment, which is less than an investigation. the fbi never spoke to rahami itself. >> well, given what's happened, it does. it seems like talking to him would have been helpful, perhaps checking into his travel records more deeply would have helped as well. the fbi in some ways is whipsawed, though, because they are charged with not only trying rights. their guidelines require them to close investigations and these preliminary investigations if there is not evidence that raises suspicions. so they can't just keep lists of people that are potentially problematic. they have to have a reason for that and that really binds what the fbi can do. >> juan, thank you very much. and now to the state of the presidential race, 48 days left until the election. hillary clinton delivering an address in orlando today laying out her plan for what the campaign is calling an inclusive economy. >> donald trump is holding a rally in toledo, ohio, one of the battleground states he's visited most since securing the republican information. our latest data shows clinton outspending her rival by a 5-1 margin in advertising. to date the clinton campaign poured more than $96 million into ads during this general election. million. nbc national correspondent peter alexander is here in new york covering it all. peter, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you. we're now just five days away from that crucial first presidential debate. this morning donald trump is fighting back against tough new questions about his charitable foundation and whether it violated laws that prohibit nonprofit leaders from using charity money to benefit themselves or their businesses. under scrutiny again this morning, donald trump's charitable foundation. new york's attorney general, a democrat, telling nbc news he's looking into whether trump used money from the charity to pay for his own legal settlements.

do you have to allege something over and above the normal to physical custody of my children smp. >> so this is what i tell all of my clients. this is how the case is going to turn out. you're going to get 50/50 legal and physical custody, meaning you're both going to share all the important decision bes the kids, their religion, education, etcetera and you'll get roughly 50/50 time with the kids unless there is abuse or neglect and that's not alleged here. >> so why then go this route? >> the short, cryptic statement this is in the best interest of the children. >> do we know about prenup? >> we don't. it would shock me that a couple with this level of earnings does not have a prenup. . >> they've been married just two years, legally married.. they were together for about a decade. when you start looking into the division of assets and you're trying to do a divorce proceeding, do you look at that whole period of time, the ten years, or just the time of the legal marriage? the legal marriage is irrelevant. they are both the parents of those kids. they both have all the rights to visitation and custody. but when it comes to property, marriage is significant. and all the property gained during the marriage will be split roughly 50/50 unless there is that pre-nup. >> and you're concentrating on the right. we keep talking about the kids, the kids, the kids. there are six children here and i think for their sake we have to be very careful about what they say. >> and they both say they want what's best for those kids. >> thank you very much. appreciate it. >> let's get a che >> we are looking at some warm weather to talk about as we get into the latter part of the week. and widespread warmth with fall starting thursday at 10:21 a.m. tomorrow. look at these temperatures over the next several days. 90s in st. louis. upper 80s, knockville. d.c., upper 80s. jacksonville, upper 80s. as we get out west, here is where the chill comes in. here is where we start to feel a little bit more fall-like. look at these temperatures. billings, upper 50s. low 80s in denver. albuquerque, temperatures in the upper 70s. that's more like it and it starts to make its way east towards the weekend. th >> get that weather anytime you need it. check out the weather channel on cable. coming up, how the family of jonbenet ramsey is fighting back after a review of evidence in the murder mystery for a tv show brother. and questions about that price hike on life-saving b epipens. the ceo faces off with lawmakers on capitol hill today. first, these messages. ?

>> reporter: first the o.j. simpson story inspired a new crop of programs, now the mystery surrounding jonbenet ramsey's murder is getting a lot of attention on tv with two programs drawing two very different conclusions about what happened. this morning, the ramsey family attorney is fighting back, promising to file a lawsuit against one of those shows. as the 20-year anniversary of jonbenet ramsey's death draws generating a wave of renewed interest and controversy. on cbs a two-night series called "the case of jonbenet ramsey" brought together a team of investigators, including the chief investigator for the boulder district attorney at the time of the murder. they spent months digging into the evidence and conclude with a theory point a finger at the girl's 9-year-old brother, burke. >> i think burke was upset with circumstances or christmas presents, he probably would have after anger he may have struck her with na flashlight. >> i think we all agree on that. >> yes. >> yes. >> reporter: that theory is drawing the ire of burke's attorney who plans to sue for defamation, something he did successfully more than 15 years ago. in a statement he said no fair-minded person can condone this false and heinous television attack by cbs on a young man for ratings and profits. in response, cbs says it stands in court. >> i did not kill my daughter, jonbenet. >> i did not have anything to do with it. >> reporter: the ramseys have always maintained their innocence and burke was exonerated by authorities in 1999. still, with the anniversary looming, knowing so many tv programs would surface, burke wanted to get his story out. he broke his silence for the first time during an interview that aired on "dr. phil." >> there still are people that sister. >> yes. >> what do you say about that? >> look at the evidence or the lack thereof. >> reporter: earlier this month in a documentary on a & e called "the killing of jonbenet, the truth uncovered," experts offered another theory that dna evidence points to an intruder, not someone from the ramsey family. >> i think the unescapable conclusion is that an unidentified male committed this crime. as soon as there's a hit, he will be nailed and solve the crime. >> reporter: bottom line, nearly 20 years later, no solid answers and still a number of conflicting theories. the boulder police department says the case remains open and a couple detectives do still receive information on a regular basis. back to you guys. >> joe fryer, thank you. let's take a turn now. al is here with a check of the weather. >> let's see what's happening. we've got the ghost of julia still hanging off the east coast, remnants of payne pushing some strong storms firing up near minneapolis and just to the west of chicago. could be some airport delays later this morning. afternoon highs 90s into the mid-section of the country from the gulf coast. humidity levels high here in the northeast so it will feel even warmer than the 80s that are predicted. those strong storms, possible flooding from minneapolis, minnesota, all the way into central wisconsin. some showers along the central florida coast. look for that rain lingering in the southeast and some gusty showers through the southwest. >> and that's your latest weather. savannah. >> thank you so much. let's find what's trending today. let us start with the awkward moment in the wake of the brangelina news. how sad will you be not to say brangelina anymore?

[ cellphone ringing ] it's just another scandal from danny tarkanian. tarkanian was the corporate lawyer for those with an elaborate scam that tricked hundreds of seniors into donating to fraudulent charities, totaling millions. and when a shady tarkanian deal went bust, he refused to pay back $17 million, sticking taxpayers with the bill. this morning on today's take, what both sides are saying about the shocking split. and america ferrara takes us inside "superstore." al and now. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is today's takes with al roker, tamron hall and billy bush live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. welcome to "today" on this wednesday morning, september 21st. billy, al, tamron. we've got two others -- >> very special people. >> my parents are here today. possibly devastated over the brangelina breakup, there they are. 48 years and going strong. >> love does live. exactly. for the people out there like myself when we got the brangelina news. >> my mom is going it does? >> your dad is quite the dapper dresser. >> like the bow tie? >> and the suspenders. >> and he has a great profile shot there. so yesterday when this news hit, tamron is in the commercial breaks. i can't believe what's happened. al was inconsolable. i believe he wouldn't come out of his room. >> you know, i just feel badly. >> you feel badly? >> here's the deal. and i understand the interest in this. but if you have been unfortunate enough to go through a divorce and one with children involved, and i have done that, you know, you just worry about the children, you worry about -- and to do it in the public eye is i've never been married but i'm the product of a divorce. my parents remarried other people. my mother went on 27 beautiful years with my dad, clarence newton. so i think we recognize these are human beings. the flip side, they're hollywood stars. and their marriage has been a point of fascination since the day they got together, allegedly on a movie set when he was still with jennifer aniston. so they get it. that's why t they sold their pictures of their children for a great cause, the wedding dress. they have allowed us in to some degree. >> it's interesting that they say -- she filed and says irreconcilable differences and her attorney says she's doing this for the health of the family. then her manager says she will always do what's in the best interests to protect her children. these are code words to me that seem to suggest that they're not get -- we don't -- that part we don't know. >> i'm saddened by this and then other things. there's reports about too much drinking and this and that. those are tabloid rumors at this point. nobody really knows what's going on. >> that doesn't stop us from talking about it. >> well, listen -- >> or the world. >> i think here's the deal. i think all of those things you set aside. you don't know. the allegations are -- when the news broke that they were apart or are divorcing, i was in newsroom filled with mostly women and they all went "no!" they had a reaction. so we can talk about whatever high brow, the bottom line is people reacted to it. >> i'm not being high brow, i just -- >> i think men and women might be in different camps here. i'm wondering if guys are like, holy mackerel, you wouldn't believe what was going on last night. my wife, i told her and she said what? it never works out, and she hung >> i think women fell in a couple of categories. there were some women like myself like what about love, can love ever survive? others took team jen. some of my friends instantly went jen aniston got her revenge, others were like team angie. it fell into this category both at work and in my personal relationships. >> are women more o'i think women, it seems to me from what i've heard and i thought they might be. >> i think because how it started. the rumors of how they started. you know, no one wants to be cheated on. certainly you don't want to be left standing there if your significant other or spouse allegedly cheats. i just felt like can love just survive. i just -- but if it's unhealthy, if it's unhealthy, you've got to get out. >> how about clooney now. we all assume unless it's a match made in hollywood that clooney and brad pitt are the clooney is at the u.n. yesterday, he's there for a roundtable with president obama on the refugee crisis and he gets hit with the news, complete low blindsided. >> you're friends with both of them. any thoughts? >> what's that? >> the whirlwind on angelina and your friend brad. >> oh, what happened? >> they're divorcing. >> i didn't know that. >> she filed. >> i feel very sorry. that's a sad story and unfortunate unfortunate story about a family. i'm very sorry to hear that. the first i've heard it. >> he's like -- i think also his orientation. you're at the u.n. and you're like, wait a minute, what? the orientation of it, you can't get your grounding. >> he left hollywood to go to the u.n. but hollywood did not leave him. it went with him. but i mean, geez, you thought they were great friends, he would know. mashable compiled a bunch of tweets on the theme love is dead. check out this twitter poll, love is dead. >> these are the options, love is dead, love is dead. jennifer aniston, word is brangelina is done. jennifer right now, hollywood. that >> she no matter what can never escape this triangle. >> and this is the other one. jennifer an aniston is like #brangelina. and that is what we call closure. i saw them out at a restaurant and they are a stunning couple. there was this energy and i watched how he was escorting her it's real life for them but that does not stop people from talking about it. >> where does it go from here? this could be the ugliest thing in the world. >> or they could work it out, you know. >> it's sad for the children. how long has this been going? it seems to me no one has heard about any -- heard anything about it. >> the last picture one of the magazines had ten weeks ago they were out with one of their children. what's also fascinating is they have a blended family and i adopted the children she had prior to their marriage, which was maddox, pax and zahara. does that change the legality of it when you have kids that you adopted before and then you have your own children that you had once you were married. i don't know how all of that works and does that impact their situation. they have only been married also for two years. they were together ten. i always wondered did marriage freak them out because they had been together for ten years. she said in an interview on "today" actually. so did that have a psychological effect. >> she's an interesting character. i remember i interviewed her before she met brad, this is after billy bob. and i said you have maddox now. what do you do about introducing maddox if you start dating somebody, do you bring that person into the house and let maddox have an opportunity to get attached? she said, no, i'm not bringing anyone home, i'llus i said what do you mean? i have friends and we'll just meet at a hotel for a few hours and then i'll go back. i was like, wow, she just shared that right out in the open. >> but she's been very -- from when she became famous and remember the lip lock with the brother, the vials of blood with billy bob thornton, she is not a demure creature and doesn't seem smith." that's a great movie. up next, amy schumer spars with magazines once again over their covers. this is very interesting. the instagram photo that is blowing up the internet. and it's the nbc comedy that's been called funny and razor sharp, just like its star, america ferrara. we'll talk to america about "superstore" and her night the things that i consume on a daily basis, a lot of it is very acidic. wasn't there as much. my teeth didn't look as healthy as others. my dentist said that pronamel would help fight against that erosion that foods and drinks were causing. so it was really important to start using the pronamel. it'll be one less thing you have to worry about. pronamel is now giving me the confidence to know that i'm doing the right thing. so it's nice to know that it's as simple as that. ?

>> i know, right, that would be great. >> that would be so terrific. >> it's called a vertical. but the key to the humor in "superstore" is a lot of sitcoms you see, you know, it's aspirational, you see this beautiful community and they live in this wonderful house. these are folks that are a little lower down on the socioeconomic ladder dealing with real issues and you guys take on all kinds of stuff. pay inequality and you do it in a funny way. this is smart. >> it's very and we ended season one with sort of a surprise walkout. my character has been on the job for ten years. she's not looking for things to change, but things happen and she just gets so fed up. and surprises herself by leading the employees in a walkout. that's where we ended season one. season two begins with us on strike. and so for a lot of people it's almost like a documentary, surprisingly. >> because you've been very shirt. >> and she wants to know where you got the dress. >> i'll trade you. >> you want people coming up to you and saying this is my life. >> totally. >> you guys represent us. >> totally. that's what excited me about the show. i remember growing up watching comedies about everyday people. you know, roseannes and cheers and where everyday person's life had humor and was valued. and i think, look, i'm first in line for aspirational show or film, but there's room in television for the point of view of everyday working class people to be smart, to be funny, and to be dimensionalized. we have working class and poor people and giving them a voice on television represents a lot of people who feel voiceless and we do it in a fun way. that's what i love about the a rally, a taking on of corporate by you an jonah, your character. >> that's right. >> how does that go?
