realized that he could no longer trust mr. bradley, as of that point and mr. hernandez provided the only eyewitness to the crime. he could no longer trust him to keep that a secret. >> the secret, according to the prosecutors is hernandez' other criminal case. a july 2012 double murder in boston's south end. the drive-by shooting killed two dorchester men. bradley was in the car with hernandez the night it happened. >> if hernandez shot bradley, which we certainly don't concede, that he did so in any way, shape or form to intimidate him as a witness. this is their theory, but this is

nationwide. a former delta employee allegedly carrying a bag of guns right through the terminal. it's something authority say happened more than 20 times. congress has been looking at how to tighten security for airport employees, new legislation still wouldn't require every employee go through t.s.a. screening like passengers, but we'll get closer to that. jeff price literally wrote the book on aviation security, taught at colleges across the country. >> it's a longtime coming, definitely needed and there's way to do it effectively and cost effectively. >> officials at hartsfield jackson the world's busiest airport tell me they've completed a big security upgrade since the gun smuggling bust. as of august, every employee there does now go 3 t.s.a. screening. orlando and miami are the only other major airports in the country with 100% employee screening. this bill doesn't go as far as the atlanta or orlando airports have, but it does require that airports reduce the number of entry points for employees and create a plan for the random screening of employees. >> i think random screenings are a good way to approach it. it's been demonstrated that random screening can be just as effective time for earth as 100% -- effective as 100% screening. >> it also requires more thorough employee background checks and title controls for employee areas. >> elizabeth: an apology tonight

and toward the fenway area. it's a gorgeous shot, no doubt about it. temperature at logan is down to 58. it is a dry evening, a pretty evening and it's cooler, of course, in the suburbs than it is downtown boston or at the airport. but not by much. in fact, when you go out to the west and away from the water, you'll find it warms up into worcester county. 65 in providence. the immediate suburbs are in the mid 50's around boston. it is clear out there right now, mostly clear, you saw a few clouds in the live shot and more clouds to our west that will spill on in here tonight. so a mixture of clouds and clear sky overnight. clear. 42 to 52, capture just about everyone. there will be the renegade places northwest of worcester that will fall to about 39 overnight and there may be a couple of spots above 52 on cape cod for instance but that will capture most of you in that ten degree range tonight. there are the clouds floating by from time to time this evening and through the morning hours. middle of the day, a couple of clouds too and by the evening, same thing. what you don't see on there is any rain coming on through and that's because this front coming on by will come through dry, but ahead of it, winds will be from the south. calm night, but southerly winds tomorrow, and that will push mild air on in here. southerly winds are still off the water edgartown, so 66 tomorrow afternoon. same idea. a land breeze blowing into places like bridgewater. 72 in quincy. 71. north shore, same thing, a southerly wind south-southwest brings you warm air, itches witch at 70 for plum island. 67 jaffrey and 70 in loudon, new hampshire, tomorrow afternoon. future compass into thursday shows the front is by us. we are in the clear, a lot of sunshine around, a couple clouds start to float on by ahead of the next system, but we're staying dry on thursday, just cooler behind the front that's coming through tomorrow and on friday, another front pushes our way, an area of low pressure spinning up into northern new england and it will eventually bring rain into southern new england as the cold front part of the system pushes in here during the afternoon. that will push on through during the afternoon and evening hours, spreading the rain eastward into boston and southeastern mets. you'll see that in the seven day forecast here, so we're going to have a knicks tour of clouds and sunshine, tomorrow, mostly sunny really and up in the low 70's, but on average, 70, because the coastal areas especially southeastern massachusetts staying in the 60's in some of the higher elevations to the upper 60's, so on average, 70, but many towns into the low 70's. thursday, much cooler behind the front and friday, that next batch of rain approaches and that is with we'll see the rain work on in. this upcoming weekend behind that front on saturday, i'm expecting sunshine and cooler temperatures, in the 60's. now, another front this time, a warm front coming by on sunday, keeping us just a little bit cooler because of the clouds, that we're going to be on monday. in fact, on monday, with the holiday. coming up, columbus day, let's focus on that, it will be warmer so between 65 and 72 degrees on monday. coolest right at the coast, of course. a lot of sunshine, mixed in with the clouds, but southwesterly wind after a chilly start monday morning in the 40's, perhaps even some 30's, dry and mild through the holiday afternoon. overall, pretty good looking holiday weekend. >> the reporter: we are live at the house of blues for the first an all globeies. what we're
