Upstate new york icy roads led to this massive pileup. In minnesota, a huge piece of ice came crashing through this windshield. The driver lucky to be alive.

Reporter hi alex. Flights canceled here in philadelphia. But we come to you from the abc news road cam at the base of the Art Museum Steps here in philadelphia. Take a look. Better known as the rocky steps and philadelphia will fight against mother nature. They have 350 plows and salt trucks at the ready. Look ahead and you can see that the roads here the ben franklin parkway is at least for now wet but the sides of the roads, the grassy area seeing snow accumulate. It was raining last night and couldnt pretreat. Salt after accumulation begins is the plan and 4 to 8 expected. Theyve only seen 4. 8 for the entire year. Theyre probably get that today. Back to you in new york. Thanks rob. So many people are doubling what theyve already had this season. A lot of folks back to even louisiana, arkansas talking about frozen precipitation. New orleans this morning dropped almost 20 degrees in just 50 minutes. Thats how powerful the cold front is. You can see those temperature differences. 70 in mobile. Jackson, mississippi, 34. So you know its happening. That cold air coming behind and thats going to be the frozen precipitation. Itll come not just as snow but ice and snow. The heaviest snow falling from baltimore back to the west through West Virginia. Im making a declaration because its so cold im wearing boots and leg warmers until it goes above 40 all right. George. Okay ginger now get inside. Well turn to the boozerston marathon trial that opened yesterday. Dzhokhar tsarnaev set the bomb but argued his brother was the mastermind and manipulator. Brian, we heard emotional testimony from a string of victims. Reporter thats right, george good morning, this city is reliving the horror of those attacks with often tearful testimony and dramatic new videos not made public until now. More new disturbing videos are expected today of the two explosions on that festive spring race day. For the first time the jury saw this footage of the first bomb blast near the marathon finish line and then in the distance the second much more powerful blast. The chaos and the carnage in the aftermath caught on tape by a wounded spectator. Get her out of here. Reporter frantic emergency workers tried to treat the most seriously injured. Youre okay. Reporter inside a nearby sports store stunned and wounded spectators stumble in and the store manager uses runs clothes to fix a tourniquet on the leg of a badly injured woman. Many left fighting for their lives that day are now attending this trial including mark phuc relly who lost his right leg. Reliving the situation and the circumstance that happened that day when we mention the ones we lost that day. The ones that should be remembered. Reporter in court, Dzhokhar Tsarnaevs lawyer judy clarke flatly stated it was him admitting he was responsible for the senseless horrific misguided acts but she pointed to this video of tsarnaev and his older brother tamerlan about to plant their bombs to claim her client was only following the path created by his older brother later killed in a police shootout. Its a strategy to persuade the jury that the younger brother hud get life in prison not the Death Penalty. But prosecutors this morning will continue to make the case that tsarnaev was not some misguided misdirected adolescent but a terrorist in his own right out to punish america. All right there, brian ross in boston thank you. Turn to dan abrams. What do you think of the strategy of the defense . Its kind of the only strategy. Youve got video of him. You have his scrawlings in the boat. Theres almost no defense for him to suggest he didnt do it. You know typically this would be the sort of case where you might see the defendant say ill plead guilty and admit just take the Death Penalty off the table and in most cases prosecutors would accept that. Not in this case. Theyre not taking the Death Penalty off the table for him. Is it proper for him to say its more of his brothers fault . Not really. Meaning as a legal matter they cant say its more his fault than it is mine. The judge made that clear. The judge said youre not going to be saying hes more at fault but what they can be saying is explaining how this all happened and thats what the defense is going to do. Theyre going to explain in their view why this happened how this happened but they have to be very careful about not doing exactly what you just said. The defense wanted to move it out of state. You think it was right that the judge says no here. It affected everyone. I mean the notion that people in massachusetts were more affected by this than people in other places in the country, look if you had someone who you knew personally who was directly impacted by this, youre probably not going to be on this jury but when youre talking about generally people knew about the case impacted by the case this is a case that affected the country. Okay i know well be talking about this for days to come. Thank you very much dan. We turn to the latest fallout from the controversy over Hillary Clintons emails. She responded overnight with a tweet saying shes asked the state department to publicly release her emails and this comes after a House Committee investigating the benghazi attacks subpoenaed that account. Jon karl joins us with the latest. Which emails will the public see and when will we see them . Reporter this will be the honor system. The emails to be released will come from the 55,000 pages of emails mrs. Clinton turned over to the state Department Late last year but, remember those were especiallies she and her team reviewed. She chose which of her emails to turn over to the state department. So the bottom line is people will have to trust that she has turned over all relevant official documents to the state department. As for when the state department only will say itll take some time to review the emails. I would expect this process to take months not weeks. And, jon, there had been some suggestions some laws may not have been fullile toed. Is that still the case . Reporter thats what the congress is investigating. It looks, the white house believes if she did what she said she did she followed the letter of the law if not the spirit of the law. Jon karl, thanks very much. Amy with the other top stories. Big scare for airline passengers. Thats right. An emergency on the runway in denver. Passengers on a u. S. S Airways Flight and smoke filled the cabin and terrifying moments that followed.

It was like a light fog at first then started to thicken a little. Reporter with smoke in his cabin the pilot declared an emergency. They came over the loudspeaker and just screaming, evacuate evacuateevacuate. Its a pilots Worst Nightmare to deal with fire or smoke in an airplane. Reporter there was one minor injury. Firefighters went through looking for hot spots but didnt find any. This morning still a mystery what caused all that smoke that led to this emergency evacuation on the snowy denver tarmac. David kerley, abc news, washington. Our thanks to david for that. New protests in ferguson missouri following that scathing report on the Police Department. At least four demonstrators were arrested for blocking traffic outside police headquarters. Hours after the announcement that the officer who fatally shot Michael Brown will not face federal charges.

Well president obamas Signature Health care law is now in the hands of a divided supreme court. The four liberal justices seem ready to side with the administrations claim that it is legal to use federal subsidies to make Health Insurance more affordable but its unclear if any conservative justice will join them. And finally next time you go on one of those safari parks, do yourself a favor, lock your car doors or this could happen. [ screaming ] lock the door. Oh my gosh i didnt know they could do that. Yep, they can do that apparently. The lie young opened the door with its teeth. This happened in south africa. 2457kfully the girl in the backseat had very quick reflexes.

When asked do you think blurred lines has the feel of got to give it up, the singer add perhapsly responding feel not infringement. Williams also testifying that at no point in the songs production did gays classic come to mind. If jurors believe that he was not inspired by marvin gaye but rather by you know the songs he heard in the 1970s growing up you know they may have a chance at prevailing. Reporter but when a muse cole gist brought in by gays family played stripped down snippets of the twoening sos williams testified it sounds like youre playing the same thing.

Lets go to ginger. Hey, here we are with the most brave crowd weve had yet. This snow is just coming out of everywhere but you look great. How about we check out serious news this morning with that winter storm look thats in kentucky. Thats i65 going south, sydney has been stuck for nine hours and she took that picture for us. Union city tennessee, you can see the cars that were parked fully encased there. More snow to come. The snow totals the forecast with the ice too right there on your jean.

We are below freezing in many locations, including gaithersrgulles, and martinsburg. This w will drop into the 20s this aftnoon with our heavaviest celebrating this young womans first snow ever. Lets get back inside. Enjoy it. Okay ginger thank you. First up in our heat index a troubling new way to cyberbully. An app that lets kids post anonymous comments about classmates and shows up in schools all across the country and ryan smith tells us how some schools are fighting back. This burn book where they write mean things. Reporter in mean girls, the burn book was all the rage. We cut out girls pictures and then we wrote comments. Reporter now its a cell phone app going viral in schools across the country. It lets students find and click on their school then post Anonymous Content about anything or anyone. For this app in particular the fact that people are anonymous, the majority of the time they have been negative. Reporter the apps terps of service web page clearly stating users may not use the service to transmit content that is hateful, abusive or otherwise objectionable by burnbook users but the app and similar ones like after school app have kearns of online threats expose exposing kids to signcyberbullies. 17yearold tailor experienced this firsthand. Somebody said tatum should get cancer like his mother and die. I was very hurt that somebody would say that to me. That just really hit deep. Reporter and parents crying foul like this father in san diego who didnt want to be identified. He says his is a privilege, not a right, they say, abuse that privilege and there will be consequences. Some schools now taking action. That is San Diego School district sending a message to middle school and High School Families warning them that charges may result from posting threatening or inappropriate messages adding threats are not jokes. Some schools are trying to block access to app like this over School Networks but since the users are anonymous, the key here is for parents to talk to their kids. That way if an issue comes up they can try to identify the anonymous tormenter and tell authority. Absolutely. Lets talk about this. Ericka souter is here. Boy, its easy to see why parents would get upset. More and more parents are being alarmed. We grew up and bullying meant being physically hit. Now it takes on a totally different meaning and one in three kids have been the victim of cyberbullying. Parents hear that and see more and more kids attempt suicide because of cyberbullying and get how dangerous this is. So where does the law stand on this . Weve seen the disclaimers. Does that protect them. Tough to stop the apps because the apps themselves are protected in a sense immune from prosecution for the offensive content their users post so while parents may be saying well we cant get the apps and website, you can get the bully. Laws are stepping up to say, if you bully online you could be subject to criminal harassment stalking and some states have gone further passing laws saying to bullies, if youre caught bullying you could be subject from anything from suspension to jail time. Of course that would require lifting the veil of anonymity. Can you do that in the apps . No thats going to be tough to do. Thats why the parent kid connection is so important. Getting a sense of who the tormenters should be. What should parents do . You have to question your kids. Make sure you know theyre not going to be open and honest about bul at all times so let them know youre there to help them not judge and dont respond to cyberbullies. Dont respond . Dont respond. That just fuels the fire. A lot of parents, their kneejerk reaction go online and launch an attack themselves. Third, monitor your kids. This goes for parents of bullied children but also parents who suspect their kids are bullied. You have to put a stop to the behavior no matter which side you fall on. Okay. Ericka brings up a good point. You dont respond. Tell School Authorities and authorities and they can take up the baton and say lets look at this and see if we need to Contact Police and thats the message. You bully online you could be subject to prosecution. Thanks very much. Lets go to robin. That is great advice. I agree. Do not respond. Dont engage. But to hilary duff opening up about her recent divorce saying she was too young when she got married. Abcs Abbie Boudreau has that story for us. You could be my dirty secret reporter this morning charttopping singer and actress hilary duff famous for her role on Lizzie Mcguire and movies like a cinderella story. Opening up about her marriage and divorce from mike comrie. The 27yearold telling cosmopolitan magazine i dont want to sound bitter because im definitely not but i dont know if people are meant to be together forever. They both seemed to be on really good terms. They both seem to be on the same page about the split. She is eager to embrace the next chapter of her life. Reporter the couple married when duff was 22 and have a son together. 2yearold luca but duff now revealing she may have gotten married too young saying we both really wanted to get married. Id been working since the age of 11 or 12 so making that choice at a young age seemed right for me adding she has no regrets. We spent the majority of our time together really happy. It wasnt working well enough to Stay Together but there was still a lot of love involved. Something reporter and duff isnt slowing down. Singing about the single life in her summer hit all about you and ready to return to the small screen this month starring in the upcoming tv show younger. Before you know it youll be in your 40s. My mom used to tell me when i was growing up hillary, do the most you can do and thats the least you can do. You know thats something that stuck with me and the kind of person i want to be. Reporter for Good Morning America, Abbie Boudreau abc news, los angeles. So good of her to open up like that and we hope for her all the best. To michael. All right, thank you, guys.

We love this video so much that we decided that we would give advice to our younger selves and we have some amazing graphics to accompany that. Karl spent hours and hours making us sit there right there with our younger selves so robin, start. I would say i would look at myself and say dear me relax. Relax and enjoy each moment more. No need to be in a rush all goes by so quickly and dont worry so much about what other people think or say about you because what other people say is none of your business and you may not know it now but you are stronger you are going to weather storms that come your way, katrina, mom and dad passing, your health and i would just say to myself you are stronger than you think you are and i would also give myself these words of encouragement i say to myself now. When fear knocks and it will and it still does when fear knocks let faith answer the door. Wow. George, you have a tough one to follow. You should have seen me.

You dont have to do everything perfectly and quickly and you can make mistakes and enjoy your mistakes because thats the only way you grow and youre going to make a lot of them honey. So stop beating yourself up. I think thats something i was always like this how could i have done that . Why did i do that and ive come to realize there really is no thing no such thing as a mistake and i really believe that. Uhhuh. There are no mistakes. There are no regrets, just chances weve taken. Thats how you have to look at it. And somebody very wise in my life said perfection is overrated. Yep. A lot more fun to be imperfect . One last one, listen to your mother. Yes. My kids are home.

In the latest movie chappie that takes us to the not too distant future where a Robotic Police force is used to control crime. A computer engineer wants to help droids become more human and hughs character vincent, he doesnt like that at all. Not at all. Take a look. Last night he brought a droid in here and it was sent in have you seen this . Do you know about this . I told him no. Okay thats a lot worse than just failing to work. So lets use this situation to make certain other robot ss cant. Do it. Oh. Welcome, hugh jackman, back to Good Morning America. Thank you. Good to see you. Everybody was everybody with their comments about your look but first of all, the accent. You were my real accent. Actually more than my real accent. I havent played an australian since the movie australia so when they sent me the script i was actually reading through neill, i said ive never heard this before. It was like im mad as a frog in a sock. I was like i dont know if this is australian. Oh it is. I find myself googling australian slang. Have you been gone that long. Ive been gone too long. I have a mate that does all that. Full as a doctors wallet. Everything. It was beautiful. I have to tell you, really enjoyed watching it. I wasnt sure what to expect. Tell everybody about the premise and the fact that i wasnt used to seeing you being the bad guy. Yeah well you could have talked to my kids. Thats pretty much me most days but, look when youre in a Neill Blomkamp movie and if you liked district 9 youll like chappie. His movies are unexpected and changed the genre and the movie is placed in the not too distant future where Police Robots are taking over from humans and the guy that creates that has created this purely artificially intelligent robot called chappie and i can tell you its not one of those futuristic movies where the robots you fall in love with this character except mine. He thinks its the worst thing that could ever happen. You talk about neill and his films are entertaining and make you think and feel and i did. I fell in love with chappie. I dont want to add took place but my wife cried at the end of the movie. In a way this robot which is when the robot is switched on for the first time its like a pure innocent child. This blank slate so this robot is stolen by this gang and so put in this completely dysfunctional violent background and its a bit of an argument about nature versus nurture. Are we a product of our environment . Or genetics. You fall in love with this character. Yeah. Your character, my goodness, you heard the comments from the crew members. Your hair didnt you love it . The blond tips blond tip, the mullet. Business in the front, party in the back. Everyone george you watch, hes going to start growing it out. Its going to happen. Come on man. You know you love it. Next time we do a dear me thats going to be the picture of george. You talk about your wife. Throwback thursday and we had the first time you did an australian tv show oh my gosh. Remember. Corelli. Lets see it. Youre 28. 79 years for armed robbery. Spent quite a bit of time inside havent you. A bit of a mullet. 19 years between mullets. You met on the set, fell in love and got married.
