were the chief's and ours. the monitor has concurred with those decisions. >> reporter: oakland city councilman mary reid says the mayor has it all wrong. reid said he spoke to the chief. >> no, i don't think she's being fort right when she says the chief resigned. the chief was -- he wasn't happy, and if i were the chief, i wouldn't be happy, given that all the hard work of trying to bring this police department into compliance with the negotiated settlement agreement. >> i will reach out to him and congratulate him and thank him, but i want to kind of also get the -- why did he leave so abruptly? you just don't get up and leave the next day. >> reporter: mayor schaaf did say she's been frustrated over the sexual misconduct cases. one allegedly assaulted a woman while showing up drunk at the wrong house. another officer is accused of pulling a gun on a painter in emeryville. >> but i am extremely angry about the alleged misconduct in this department. >> reporter: so chief whent's resignation comes as the department is at a crossroads. still struggling with court ordered reforms. young cops accused of off-duty misconduct. it remains to be seen whether opd can find stab bill ?ee. this happened so suddenly. it seems like it caught so many people off-guard. >> reporter: including the chee. all the sources are telling us he was not expected to get that call to say, quit or be fired. >> i live in oakland, so speaking kind of on a personal level here, it seems to me like the police department had been making some progress, at least when it it comes to crime in the city. crime is down in oakland. but i guess when you balance that against the police misconduct, the mayor and the administrator here who was overseeing the department, decided the misconduct was more important. >> all that good work that the cops have done in reducing crime overshadowed by the bad things they might be doing off- duty. so now as we talk about the new interim top cop, ben fairow, he comes from the oakland police department himself. he is recently a deputy bart police chief. ben fairow began with opd in 1990, spent 21 years with the department. he has worked in swat, vice narcotics, internal affairs, and left as a captain. he joined the bart police as a deputy police chief in 2011. we spoke with fairow today. here is what he had to say. >> i'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to help the city maintain the momentum that it's had in its crime fighting reduction and reaching out to the community and building those bridges. >> mayor schaaf says she has tremendous confidence in fairow, but tear row does have some baggage of his own. in 2014, sergeant thomas smith was accidentally shot and killed by a fellow officer as they searched a dublin apartment. smith's widow filed a lawsuit saying before his death smith had asked fairow for more training, or to have the bart s.w.a.t. team do building searches. the suit says fairow rejected his request. the suit is still pending with the same judge. >> henry, what do you think the chances are that fairow will be tapped as the permanent replacement for whent? >> it's kind of like an insider and an outsider. it's been five years since's been with opd, sought remains to be seen. they are doing a national search and considering outside candidates. >> henry, right now you have san francisco, the police department there doing a national search. well, actually, i can't remember. the chief the interim? >> the interim chief is still there. >> right, he's the interim chief, that's what i thought. and you have oakland. >> exactly. so two big cities here in the bay area angling for candidates. you know, what it's going to be really difficult to see, does anyone want to take this job in an environment with the national conversation about policing and race. it's going to be tough. >> i know you're following it for us. thank you henry. with the departure of sean whent met with surprise from the flat lands to city has. ktvu's rob roth tells us many people never sought coming or thought whent's leaving was necessary. >> reporter: at youth uprising, a program devoted to helping young people overcome hardships and develop leadership skills, former police chief sean whent was well regarded. >> young people would go to his office. they would go down to the main office and sit with him and talk. >> reporter: this 23-year-old who works here thought whent was doing a good job. >> i think did he his job well. i think so is from me coming from oakland in 2013, to where we are now, definitely. >> reporter: and across town outside city hall councilman larry reid shared part of his conversation with whent last night after the bombshell dropped. >> when i talked to the chief, the chief was very hurt. and he is certainly someone that i've always respected and admired. >> reporter: reid doesn't buy that whent left willingly. >> crime is down at its lowest. and if i was the chief, why would i resign? >> reporter: it appears chief whebt wasn't he is special popular with some of the rank and file. whent worked in internal affairs before becoming chief, and many officers said they never felt like they could trust him. >> i was surprised to hear that chief whent resigned or was fired last night. >> reporter: dan seagle is a longtime civil rights attorney and was once an advisor. ebels the accumulation of police scandals pied up. >> i think he's a decent chief. i don't think he was a great chief. he may have been a little too soft-spoken, perhaps unwilling to exercise his authority and demand obedience from the rank and file. >> chief whent had the great misfortune of a lot of bad staffing. i think it's impossible as a leader to be as great aus want to be in a job if you don't have the right team around you. >> reporter: the question now is will the next chief have any better luck. in oakland, rob roth, ktvu fox 2 news. >> former 49ers and raiders star lineman dana stubblefield returned to the courtroom but did not enter a plea. stubblefield is accused of sexually assaulting a woman in morgan hill in 2015. she was applying for a nanny job at his house. prosecutors say the alleged victim is developmentally disabled. stubblefield says the sex was consensual. he accuses the woman of trying to extort money from him. today his attorneys filed a motion asking that the district attorney be recused from the case and that the attorney general step in. new developments now from the stanford sexual assault case. today the push to recall the judge in that case is growing. a petition has been circulating around the internet. ktvu's tom vacar live with the story of one million signatures calling for the judge to be taken off the bench. tom. >> reporter: well, the anger is palpable, and the pressure is mounting on the judge who said he was acting within the legal guidelines when he sentenced the former stanford university sex offender to what may end up being just a 90-day jail sentence. they came to the san francisco state building today to present to the state council on judicial performance a petition bearing a million signatures, including those of 11 state lawmakers. they demand the counsel investigate and discipline santa clara county judge aaron persky for giving a convicted sex offender a six-month jail sentence instead of many years. >> it says, if you are raped on a college campus n california, you are on your own, and to potential perpetrators, it says, don't worry, we have your back. >> reporter: the victim of another rape stood with the activists urging more people to get involved. >> i am really upset about this lenient sentence because i am basically sentenced to life as a survivor of this. >> reporter: the activists say they will also collect signatures and file a formal recall petition in santa clara for judge per ski's re-- for judge persky's recall. >> this case has ignited a spark that hat, because of the powerful voice of a young survivor of a horrific attack, who only wanted justice. >> reporter: now, while the state has limited powers to act on its own, they are so limited and take so much time that the long process may actually belonger than a recall, which could come about sooner if it ever comes about. tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. >> tom, they are going about getting this petition and getting the signatures. what would come next in their process to go further with this recall effort? >> reporter: they have to gather the signatures which is not an easy thing to do. yes, this is a very note worthy case and all that stuff, but you still have to pound the pavement and actually get the signatures. then those signatures have to be verified, then this has to be put on a ballot. that could take months. on top of that you have to make sure that the petition that you're filing is actually going to be successful because otherwise you are going to spend a lot of money unless you have a heck of a lot of volunteers trying to get something that may be rejected. now, we are told that the santa clara county bar association is not supporting any idea of recalling the judge, that they feel that as long as he acted within the guidelines, he acted within the guidelines andy shouldn't be punished for that. on the other hand a lot of other people feel this is such saipght case of how women get mistreated in certain courts of law that it has to be dealt with. >> it sure is fueling debate on both sides across the country. tom thank you. today we received a 500- page case file about turner's conviction. coming up at 5:30 we take a look at the prosecutor's effort to convince the judge about sentence longer than four to six months. a lawyer convicted of a hit- and-run in dublin is getting a tougher punishment because of what the judge learned. spencer smith was practicing lain san francisco in 2012 when he hit and killed a 57-year- old. he was convicted of misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter but instead of receiving prison time a judge sentenced him to five years of probation. after the judge found out that smith traveled to dubai while on probation, the judge sentenced him to a year in jail. today in court his attorney asked that instead of jail smith be on an electronic monitoring program. the judge denied that request. coming up later, a heartbreaking story. a high school football star who is going to graduate tonight is now paralyzed from neck down avenue jumped into a pool. tonight we hear from family and friends about what happened and also what he said just before going into surgery. kings, presidents, and thousands of fans coming out to wish muhammad ali a final fare west. i'm joel waldman in louisville, kentucky. we'll have the details straight ahead. also coming up, a woman just doing her job, working construction, attacked and killed what. witnesses say led up to a stack on the streets of san francisco. we're tracking that weekend forecast. get ready for it. saturday and sunday i think are going to be pretty darn nice. numbers are coming up. see you back here. the female construction worker doing her job was stabbed to death this morning. she was attacked near fifth and folsom south of market area in san francisco. police have two people in custody. ann rubin tells us police are crediting the victim's coworkers with helping to chase down the attackers. >> reporter: the victim flagged traffic at this construction site. it was here she was fatal alley stabbed. >> i just saw a commotion. i was in my shop working. i came outside and the victim was on the ground and the suspect was on top of her, trying to go through her pockets, i guess. >> reporter: malik says he recognized the suspect, a woman, possibly a transient. >> she tried to take off. the coworkers realized what happened so they grabbed her. well, grabbed her by her bike. >> reporter: witnesses say the construction workers followed them until police arrived. authorities took both people into custody and recovered what they believe to be the murder weapon. >> you can never predict when attacks are going to happen and you can never predict how quickly these events will take place. this person had an edged weapon, attacked a woman, and everything happened within minutes. >> reporter: the coroner has identified the victim as a 58- year-old of san francisco. she had worked for the company for the last two years. a spokesperson described her as loyal and someone who always did a great job. she said they are grieving with her family right now and trying to deal with the shock. that is also true for those who say they looked forward to seeing campbell's face each day that she worked. >> terrifying. it's really sad. it hurts. >> reporter: neighbors have placed flowers at the spot where the victim used to work. the rest of her crew was sent home for the day. in san francisco, ann rubin, ktvu fox 2 news. the san francisco 49ers are offering pointers to some young athletes in the south bay. the football camp for the stars is in its 10th year at valley christian high school in san jose. the camp is designed for student athletes who have down's syndrome and who love football. the campers are learning all the banks of the game with some help from the professionals. >> we learn tackling, we learn quarterback skills, we learn how to catch the ball. they get hands-on coaching from steve mariucci. it's fun for the athletes but i think the comps and the people here, it's actually even a better experience. >> the football camp for the stars at valley christian has inspired two other similar camps. one in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, and another in st. louis. the camp runs through tomorrow at valley christian high school. >> that's awesome. having coach mariucci out there helping you, that's great stuff. let's talk about our weather with chief meteorologist bill martin. today was pretty nice. >> a little warmer today, huh. temperatures up about three or four degrees. friday is here. the weekend is beginning. temperatures are going to warm up. we've got temperatures that are going to be a good 10 to 15 degrees warmer than the numbers we saw this week. last week was record heat, spare the air days. this week was cool, mild, and now we kind of go back into sort of an increased temperature. we've got a red flag warning for tomorrow morning through sunday, and mainly north and east of the bay area. but the idea that high pressure builds in and we're warming up. the low pressure center, you see it spinning up around portland. that's migrating off. as it does, it leaves a hole in the atmosphere so the high jumps right into it, so as the high builds in, the air starts to sink and we start to warm up. kind of a cool feature right here this sort of cloud streak. we used to call at cloud street. it's just a band of clouds. it's not a jet contrail or nick. it's just a band of clouds. really no fog out there. so watching the sunset in the avenues, 72 in fairfield, 74 in livermore. look at the difference from yesterday. there's four degrees cooler in fairfield, yet four degrees warmer in napa. it's really a wash. this whole week, you could have lived without me all week, quite frankly. you know that. i've been saying the same thing because it's been very similar all week. but now you need me because things are changing. the fog bank is shrinking, and this is going to compress the marine layer. it is going to allow the beaches to be relatively clear. it is also going to give bay area air quality a little bit of a hit. for fairfield, vacaville, the hills of the far north bay, but the fact that it's sort of a harbinger of things to come as we head forward in time. we're going to start seeing more red flag warnings, but more centered on the bay area. it's a low-grade red flag warning. when we get some high-grade ones with big 5-mile-per-hour winds, but this is a low grade one. it just means it's not going to be 105. it's going to be 88 degrees, 85 degrees, with some humidity and wind. so there you go. a nice looking day. slightly cooler on saturday but not much. cooling continues. actually those words are wrong. those are incorrect words. the numbers are right. don't look at the words. >> i'm looking. >> tomorrow is going to be slightly warmer. slightly warmer. let me scamper back to my little hole back here. >> we probably didn't even notice. >> the numbers are good. >> you said we couldn't live without you. i think we need you. >> i was fishing. thank you, julie. >> we didn't take the bait. >> we need you. we were thinking it, though. >> i have to go fix that. >> bill, thank you. the stars came out to say good-bye to muhammad ali. comedians, former presidents, and those who simply knew him as the champ as the boxing legend was laid to rest. and a growing backlash over a controversial sentencing in the stanford sexual assault trial as we hear from one of several is jurors who are now refusing to serve for the judge in that case. i knew it was important to keep inside of me. i knew there were other people on the jury who felt the same way i did. thousands came out to remember boxing legend muhammad ali. his hearse made a procession through his hometown of louisville, kentucky. people lined the streets for miles, some throwing flowers onto the windshield. there was a private funeral and a public celebration for the most famous athlete in the world. that was celebration of his life attended by kings, presidents, and celebrities. joel waldman has more from louisville. >> reporter: for many he was known simply as "the greatest," the world saying one last good- bye to muhammad ali, perhaps the most celebrated and controversial sports figure of the 20th century. >> he dared to love black people at a time when black people had a problem loving themselves. >> reporter: more than 15,000 people packing a louisville arena for a grand memorial service including king hussein of jordan and former president bill clinton, all praising ali as a man who always did what he thought was right. >> ali was the greatest because as a debilitated yet unbroken champion in his later years he pointed us to a greatness beyond ourselves. >> reporter: but ali made sure plenty of his regular fans got in as well. he made plans for the event years ago deciding thousands of ticket would be given away to the general public. in a video posted on facebook today, president obama also remembering the people's champ. >> it's very rare where a figure captures the imagination of the entire world. >> reporter: ali was a three- time heavyweight champion but most of the speakers focused on his impact outside the ring, tackling issues like war and racism often at his own expense, mourners here saying passing on that courage and conviction will be his lasting legacy. >> the last respect we could do to the present, the person that touches everybody in the world. >> reporter: in keeping with muslim tradition he was buried with a headstone simply inscribed "ali." one of the greatest players in the history of the nhl died today at the age of 88. gordie howe was the all-time leading scorer until wayne gretzky passed him. his career included 2500 games spanning from world war ii all the way through the vietnam war. he played so long that at the age of 52, he was even on the ice playing pro hockey with his kids. howe died in toledo, ohio. on twitter, wayne gretzky mourned the loss of the person he called the greatest hockey player ever. coming up, it is a sexual assault case that has made national headlines. and today we got a look at the let tear deputy district attorney wrote to the judge before the sentencing. coming up next, details about her full argument to have brock turner receive a longer sentence. after a loss on wednesday the warriors trying to bounce back tonight in game four of the nba championship series. a pretty good representation here by warrior fans. i've got a live report coming up from cleveland. now to the latest involving this man, brock turner. he's the former stanford swimmer convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman outside of a frat party at stanford. earlier this morning the santa clara courts released the entire case file regarding the attack that happened there on the stanford campus. we've been going through the hundreds of pages of documents. >> ktvu's ross palombo joins us now. what really struck us was the letter the attorney wrote to the judge. >> the letter is shocking. we've known that she was asking for a six-year sentence but today we got a look at the entire argument. you will remember brock turner a member of the stanford swim team was caught sexually assaulting an unconscious woman behind a dumpster. the judge only sentenced him to six months in jail. he will get out in three months with good behavior. the outrage over the sentencing has only been growing something, we're we're just learning, that the deputy d.a. knew was going to happen from the beginning. in her argument to the judge before the sentencing, she wrote, "this case touched on the nerve of the community because of the audacious and callous manner. she also wrote turner's behavior is not typical behavior but it is more akin to a predator searching for prey. she wrote in her letter that they did not believe his story because his story was outrageous and was not supported by the plethora of evidence against him. they did not believe him because his store was a lie. and ultimately the fact that the defendant preyed upon an intoxicated stranger on a college campus should not be viewed as a less serious crime than if he were to assault a stranger in downtown palo alto. frank and julie, one of the most shocking parts of all of this is that she wrote in the letter that the victim went to the parole board, the people who come up and help determine what the sentence is, and she told them that she wanted him to get help. apparently the d.a. believes that her words were used against the victim herself, and that's maybe why she got a later sentence, because she had indicated that she wanted him to get help, that maybe she had some sympathy for him. very disturbing. >> i'll be honest, i'm having a very hard time understanding that sentence. i don't get it. and in particular, the part that disturbs me the most is that when he was doing this, and the two swedish students who saw him, came up to him, he knew enough, he knew he was doing something wrong, that's why he ran. you could say that he was drunk, you could make all of those arguments, but he knew, in my opinion, that he was doing something wrong. but i think the point i really wanted to make is just with the woman who wrote that letter, the victim who wrote that 12- page letter. the reason this has become a national story is because she was willing to put her story out there. >> it's absolutely right. >> in graphic terms of what it was like in the hospital when they were probing her. >> if she wouldn't have done that, a lot of people would not have fueled such a nationwide debate. her words have made such a difference in this case. >> yeah, and look at this. it went all the way to the vice president who read that letter. he has commented on it. hundreds of thousands of people have signed petitions to have that judge recalled. a lot of other sex assault victims saying what this victim did in this case actually gives they will hope because she spoke out so strongly and said things to make other people listen. >> if any good comes of this, it is that she was to inspire other victims to come forward and have hope. >> you know what's really touching to me, i've gotten several e-mails there women who have said, i've never told anybody this before, or i've only told my husband this, and then they proceed to tell me the story about what happened to them, how they were raped, how they were sexually abused, how they were assaulted. it's really touching, but i think again it goes to that woman who was willing to put herself out there with her story. it makes sought that other women thou feel comfortable to come out and tell their story. and that is so important. >> and the details keep coming out, like the d.a.'s letter today. we'll certainly much more in the weeks due. we'll see if that judge keeps his seat on the bench. >> ross, thank you. well, right now, warriors fans are gathering in oakland's jack london square to try to keep the team in oakland. this is a live look. >> where is everyone? >> not a lot of people there. >> come on, man, let's go. >> the warriors have announced plans to build a new arena. tonight as the team gets ready to play game four of the nba finals, fans are sending a message to the owners and the league that oakland is their home. well, tonight we mentioned the warriors trying to shake off wednesday night's 30-point loss. a win tonight would bring the team home just one win away from their second consecutive championship. the warriors and the san jose sharks are playing about 130 miles apart, and our joe fonzi was in cleveland wednesday with the warriors, then he drove to pittsburgh for the sharks big win, then he hit the road again heading back to cleveland for game four of the nba finals. that's where we find him right now. he is live outside the arena. joe, how is it going? >> reporter: yeah, julie, it's been a very busy couple of days. and let's just say that the warrior fans travel well. one thick that we noticed this year different than last year when we were here in cleveland is the national influence that the warriors and steph curry specifically now have all across the country. it was very evident here on wednesday, much more evident tonight, both inside and outside the arena. there are warrior fans pretty much everywhere you look. we're going to talk to some in a few minutes, but the warriors themselves know that they have to play much better tonight than they did on wednesday night's game if they don't want to have the series evened up 2- 2 as it heads back to oakland. here is what steve kerr had to say in his media meeting. >> coach you said before game three that you didn't feel the need to have to say anything to your team because they understood the magnitude of the situation, and then they came out the way they did. due feel like you need to say something to them tonight? >> i was obviously wrong before game three. i should have mentioned to them, we're in the finals, and the other team is really good and we're on their home floor. maybe that would have helped. i think what happened the other night, if that doesn't get our team prepared to play, then there's no words that i can use that will do the job. >> reporter: here is the reason why you might see a few more warrior fans here tonight. the owners of the warriors loaded up an airplane full of warriors employees and flew them out here. if you want to have good more rainl your organization that's the thing to do. and i'm joined now by some people who met here last year. joe is from los gatos. joe, i noticed you last year because you had i think a gold sport coat and a blue shirt underneath. >> very embarrassing. >> reporter: you have changed your attire. you made the trip out with your friends. >> here they are. >> reporter: do the roll call. >> all the boys from los gatos, a bucket list trip. it's been a true pleasure to represent the bay area to be here. and the fans here, the city here has treated us so graciously. we're going to bring back a victory for the warriors in the san francisco bay area. it's so great to spend it here as camaraderie of best friends. >> reporter: how do we get a guy with a cleveland jersey here? >> there's a big story. >> born and raised in cleveland, live in the bay area. torn a bit but i've got to go with my roots. >> reporter: how are you guys being treated? >> people are having a few comments. >> but most everybody is really great, supportive. it's a good competition. >> reporter: it's time for you guys and me to get inside. we will be with you tonight at 10:00. until then, live from cleveland, i'm joe fonzi. >> let's go warriors! >> you got your support system there. joe, thank you. well, coming up this is a

friday. weekend plans, barbecue weather, all good. this whole week was marked by some very cool weather, below- average temperatures for most of the week, as opposed to the week prior which was above- average temperatures and record temperatures with spare the air days. so now mostly clear along the coast. the fog is trying to reform, but the high pressure is building in, in such a way, that it's going to keep the fog. patchy at the coast but it is going to keep most of the fog out of the inland bay valleys. that's going to allow temperatures to warm up. so you actually can seat a little bit. if you look at the winds coming down the coast that's essentially an offshore, slightly offshore trajectory. you seat here, too. you see the clouds and the fog getting shunted offshore. that cloud street hanging over the top of us creating a little bit of color for the suncity. surface winds, you see a little bit on the northwest, which is typical, because the upper level winds will be more north- northeast. the lower level winds are representing the thermal gradient around because of the cool water and the warmer inland. the winds now 22 miles per hour sustained in fairfield. winds down at the sfo, san francisco airport, 35 miles per hour out of the west, gusting to 35, sustained at 30. that's windy. last week we had a big deep marine layer. this week it changes around and we end one a shallow pinched down marine layer. that's going to allow things to warm up. it's also going to take a hit on air quality and increase your fire danger saturday and sunday with a red flag warning for the higher elevations of north bay, north bay, marin county, and up towards fairfield and vacaville. low grade red flag warning. you can feel it outside. it's not going to be 102 degrees with 5%
