The former 49er put his skills on display at charles drew high school, an hour outside of atlanta, reportedly six of the 24 teams scheduled to attend the official workout showed up. The nfl sanctioned event is not open to the media so kaepernick did his own thing, saying our biggest thing with everything today was making sure we had transparency. With everything that went on, we were not getting that elsewhere so we came out here. At the englanders sports park in san leandro, the bear was falling and so were the opinions over whether the nfls hastily called workout for kaepernick was a bona fide opportunity. I think they will ve hi do it, and then bottom out after that. Officially the nfl said they were disappointed he did not show up to the official workout and added that the session was designed to give colin what he consistently said he wants, an opportunity to show his footbal to the nfl.

Investigation. Again, its still unclear as to how the boy was able to access this area of the tracks. Lets here from captain wahid kazem. This afternoon, received a 911 call of a young male juvenile walking near the train tracks in the area of lafayette street over the 101 overcrossing. As our officers were responding to that call, we received a subsequent phone call informing us that the train had struck the male juvenile. Upon arrival, we did find the young male juvenile deceased. Reporter even though the age of the boy is still unknown, Santa Clara Police did confirm that there was no indication of this being a death by suicide. Theyre ruling it as an accident. Back here live, we did get confirmation from Santa Clara Police that the boys family was contacted after this incident. In santa clara, luz pena, abc7 news. Luz, thank you very much for the report.

Theres a couple areas of inquiry, all things Jeffrey Epstein and hopefully about the implementation of the First Step Act and where could we go from there. How could you buildyt upon that . Those of the three areas i would like to talk about and altered over to senator feinstein. Thank you very much, mr. Cha. I want to welcome you. Its wonderful for me to see a woman int charge, and so we can celebrate it for a few moments at least. You are responsible for the care and custody of over 180,000 federal inmates, and one of the Justice Departments largest employers with approximately 35,500 employees as of may of this year. As the chairman mentioned, there are two issues i hope we can focus on. One is the first act, which he mentioned, and the second is problems with staffing and conditions within your department. Im going to put most of this in the record, but i think, i think what ill do, mr. Chairman, in the interest of time is just put the statement in the record. Without objection. Se
