♫ Hey, Gus Porter, American mountain man.
♫ He crossed the border with animal hunting plans.
♫ But his rifle stalled and the grizzly mauled.
♫ Now he's stuck in a foreign land.
(mumbling)
- Hey.
Hey, fella.
- Momma, Momma.
- Excuse me, Mister?
- Old griz, it got me pretty good, I guess, huh?
- Well he sure did but don't you worry.
Got a doctor on the way here,
so what's your name there?
- Gus Porter, American mountain man.
You can call off that doctor of yours.
I'm out of my coverage zone.
I'm sure I'll be fine.
- Sir, you don't have to worry about the health insurance.
You're in Canada now.
Our system covers everyone for free.
- Sounds like Communism.
I don't need your free medicine here, commissar.
- Oh, Jesus, we got to stop that bleeding there.
- Bleeding?
Why don't you put a bandage on your whining?
- Hey look, you're loosing a lot of blood there, friend.
You could die like that.
- That's not gonna happen, Kim Jong-il.
How far is the American border?
- It's about 90 kilometers.
- Don't give it to me in Nazi distance.
Give it to me in American.
- Oh, yeah, we're talking 60 miles there, at least.
- An afternoon stroll.
- I don't think you should, sir--
- I gotta get back to
my insurance coverage zone.
♫ Hey, Gus Porter, heading back to the land of the free,
♫ But a clotting disorder makes it a difficulty.
♫ The government support always comes up short
♫ So we're struggling through gangrene.
(groaning)
- I had a horrible dream I was surrounded by Socialists.
They were trying to kill me with their free medicine.
God, dammit.
- Hey. - Hey.
- How far did I get?
- About 17 and a half meters,
but luckily I was able to hydrate you back up
and stabilize your condition.
- Let it be noted,
Gus Porter did not consent to this illegal transfusion.
GOD!
- Look, Mr. Porter, we're only trying to help here.
Your wound's infected.
You'll die without treatment.
- Now I have my own Canadian death panel
telling me when I'm gonna die.
- At least let me clean out your neck wound again, okay?
I got these antibiotics here.
(splashing)
- Oh, come on, man, really?
You're urinating on my medical supplies, man.
- Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to my America
where I pay for my insurance medical coverage.
♫ So he walked some more and he walked again
♫ And he walked and he walked, and he jogged and he walked
♫ And he dragged his feet and he lost a lot of blood
♫ And he tried to walk and he stumbled some more
♫ And he died twice but he got back up
♫ And he wasn't gonna let
♫ A bunch of Commie's sell him anything
♫ He didn't want to hear.
♫ So now he's finally dead but his spirit lives on
♫ Because he walked
- [Man] That's American legend.
♫ Gus Porter!

Store owner files lawsuit over social media post - Duration: 1:52.
S TRYING TO GET THIS
LAWSUIT IN FRONT OF A JURY WHILE
THE DEFENSE SAYS IT SHOULD BE
DROPPED.
THE LAWSUIT STEMS FROM AN OLD
FLOUR SACK THAT WAS ON DISPLAY
AT NICOLE GUIDA'S LITTLETON
SHOP.
DURING COURT DISCUSSIONS TODAY
KATHERINE FERRIER'S ATTORNEY
CLAIMED THE SACK HAD A SWASTIKA
ON IT AND LATER QUESTIONED GUIDA
ABOUT IT WHO EXPLAINED THE SACK
WAS FROM THE EARLY 1900'S AND
THE DESIGN WAS A PRE-WORLD WAR
II SYMBOL FOR LUCK.
FERRIER STATED THE TWO GOT INTO
A DISAGREEMENT.
SHE THEN WROTE ABOUT THE
CONVERSATION ON FACEBOOK WHICH
GUIDA'S ATTORNEY SAYS DESCRIBED
HIS CLIENT AS A RACIST AND
FORCED HER TO SHUT DOWN HER
STORE DUE TO PUBLIC BACKLASH
FROM THE POST.
>> THIS IS THE FACEBOOK POST,
YOUR HONOR.
THIS IS A BLATANTLY RACIST AND
SUPERCHARGED SYMBOL.
NOW MORE THAN EVER, AND I'M
SHOCKED AND BUMMED OUT THAT YOU
THINK IT IS AN APPROPRIATE THING
TO HANG IN YOUR STORE.
REPORTER: FERRIER'S ATTORNEY
REFERENCED THAT SAME POST,
HIGHLIGHTING HIS CLIENT NEVER
SAID GUIDA HERSELF WAS RACIST.
>> NOT ONE DID SHE SAY THE
SELLING OF AN ANTIQUE FLOUR SACK
WAS RACIST.
INSTEAD, WHAT SHE SAYS IS, THIS
SYMBOL ON THIS SACK IS
SUPERCHARGED AND RACIST.
REPORTER: GUIDA'S ATTORNEY IS
PUSHING FOR THE LAWSUIT TO BE
BROUGHT IN FRONT OF A JURY,
WHILE THE DEFENSE HAS ASKED THE
COURT TO DISMISS IT, CALLING THE
SITUATION A MATTER OF FREE
SPEECH.
>> THIS IS ABOUT THE TRUTH AND
FIGURING OUT WHAT THE TRUTH IS,
AND THAT'S A FACT QUESTION.
THAT'S NOT A QUESTION FOR THE
COURT, NOT A QUESTION FOR US.
IT'S A QUESTION FOR THE PEOPLE
WHO WILL SIT THERE.
THESE ARE HER RIGHTS WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT.
WE ASK YOU VINDICATE THEM AND
THAT YOU DISMISS THIS CASE WITH
PREJUDICE.
REPORTER: THE JUDGE IS EXPECTED
-------------------------------------------
Former caseworker breaks silence - Duration: 2:43.
INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER PAUL VAN
OSDOL WITH THAT STORY.
REPORTER: SHE WAS A CASE WORKER
IN WEST MORELAND COUNTY FOR SIX
YEARS UNTIL SHE QUIT IN
FRUSTRATION LAST YEAR.
NOW THAT SHE'S NO LONGER THERE,
SHE IS ABLE TO SPEAK OUT.
HER BIGGEST BEEF IS WITH A
SYSTEM THAT SEEMS TO VALUE
PAPERWORK MORE THAN PEOPLE.
ONE OF TRACY'S LOWEST MOMENTS AS
A CHILD WELFARE CASE WORKER CAME
WHEN SHE FOUND YOUNG CHILDREN
LIVING IN FILTHY CONDITIONS AND
TRIED TO HAVE THEM REMOVED FROM
THEIR HOME.
>> WHEN I WAS AT THE HOUSE,
THERE WAS ANIMAL FECES ALL OVER
THE PLACE, THE HOUSE WAS
DISGUSTING.
THE FOOD THING WAS BIG WITH ME.
IT WAS POP AND SNACK FOOD.
THERE WASN'T SUBSTANTIAL FOOD
THERE.
BUT WE CAN'T DICTATE WHAT THEY
FEED THEM.
REPORTER: STILL, SHE COULD NOT
CONVINCE HER SUPERVISORS TO HAVE
THE CHILDREN REMOVED.
HOW FRUSTRATING IS THAT FOR YOU?
>> VERY.
THOSE KIDS ENDED UP GETTING
REMOVED AT SOME OTHER POINT WHEN
I WAS TNT CASE WORKER.
REPORTER: THE CHILDREN'S BUREAU
REFUED TO COMMENT.
SMUCKER SAID ANOTHER FRUSTRATION
WAS AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT OF
PAPERWORK, SO MUCH THAT AT TIMES
SHE HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN SEEING
FAMILIES AND WRITING REPORTS.
>> THE PAPERWORK DID NOT KEEP ME
FROM SEEING THE FAMILIES BUT
SEEING THE FAMILIES SOMETIMES
INTERFERED WITH GETTING THE
PAPERWORK.
REPORTER: THAT CAUSED HER TO GET
BAD REVIEWS FOR SUBMITTING LATE
REPORTS.
A HEAVY CASE LOAD MADE IT EVEN
MORE DIFFICULT TO GET HER WORK
DONE.
STATE GUIDELINES SAY CHILD
WELFARE WORKERS SHOULD NOT
HANDLE MORE THAN 15 CASES.
HOW MANY CASES WERE YOU
TYPICALLY HANDLING?
>> TYPICALLY AT LEAST 20.
REPORTER: HOW DID A HIGH CASE
LOAD AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO GET
YOUR JOB DONE?
>> IT'S HARD.
IT'S VERY DIFFICULT.
CONSIDERING ALSO THAT THE
TURNOVER IN THAT PROFESSION IS
HUGE.
REPORTER: A CHILD WELFARE EXPERT
AT PITT SAID HIGH CASE LOADS ARE
NOT UNUSUAL, ESPECIALLY WITH
STRICT CHILD ABUSE REPORTEDING
LAWS PASSED IN THE WAKE OF JERRY
SANDUSKY SCANDAL.
>> CASE LOAD SIZES HAVE REALLY
GONE THROUGH THE ROOF FOR MANY
CHILD WELFARE WORKERS.
REPORTER: DESPITE THE US FROM
STRAIGHTS, SHE SAID SHE IS
DEDICATED TO HELPING FAMILIES IN
NEED.
>> I HAVE SAT IN HOSPITAL WARDS
WITH MOMS UNTIL 11 AT NIGHT
BECAUSE THEY WERE DEPRESSED OR
DRUG ADDICTION, WHATEVER THE
CASE MAY BE.
BUT THEY HAVE NOBODY ELSE TO
SUPPORT THEM.
REPORTER: NOW, TRACY SAID THE
OPIOID EPIDEMIC WAS A MAJOR
SOURCE OF CASES FOR HER.
IT IS STILL PAINFUL FOR HER TO
RECALL HEARING THE SCREAMS OF
BABIES GOING THROUGH WITHDRAWAL

THAT SOLVED THE BABY DOE CASE.
ED: THE BROTHER TELLS KAREN
ANDERSON HOW HE KICKED A VICIOUS
DRUG HABIT SO HE COULD TESTIFY
ABOUT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO
BELLA BOND.
>> I WAS AT THE END OF MY ROPE.
NOTHING CAN STOP ME FROM USING
DRUGS.
REPORTER: HE WAS ADDICTED TO
HEROIN AND HOMELESS WHEN THE
LABONTE TOLD HIM THAT THE
CHILDHOOD FRIEND, MICHAEL
MCCURRY, HAD KILLED BELLA.
>> SICKENING TO THE SOUL, THE
DEEPEST POSSIBLE ANYTHING,
ANYBODY COULD EVER IMAGINE.
REPORTER: HE TEXTED HIS SISTER
WHO CALLED POLICE.
>> I REPORTED IT.
REPORTER: HE HAS NEVER HEARD THE
NAME BABY DOE, BUT LAURA KNOW
THE STORY.
>> DOES IT LOOK LIKE HER, THEN
HE WROTE, I AM CRYING, THAT IS
HOW SERIOUS.
THAT IS HER.
>> I SEEN IT.
I KNEW RIGHT AWAY.
THESE TWO WERE SICK, THEY ARE
ANIMALS.
REPORTER: HE WAS A KEY WITNESS
AT MCCARTHY'S TRIAL.
HE AND HIS SISTER WAITED AT
COURT EVERY DAY FOR THE VERDICT,
GUILTY OF SECOND-DEGREE MURDER.
>> WHEN IT HAPPENED, I BROKE
DOWN.
I COULD NOT LEAVE IT.
DID I HEAR WHAT I HEARD?
I HUGGED MY BROTHER.
REPORTER: HE SAID HE HAS BEEN
SOBER SINCE HE LEARNED OF THE
MURDER.
HE WANTED TO MAKE SURE HE COULD
TESTIFY FOR BELLA.
>> ANYTIME I THOUGHT OF DOING
SOMETHING BAD OR USING, I
THOUGHT OF BELLA.
>> BELLA WAS HERE WITH ME AT ALL
TIMES.
SHE SAVED MY BROTHER.
I WANT TO THANK HER FOR THAT.
THANK YOU.
SHE GAVE ME MY BROTHER BACK.
REPORTER: MY DESTINY IN LIFE WAS
TO BE THERE TO SPEAK ON HER
BEHALF.

IT IS 74 IN CARLISLE, 77 IN
LANCASTER AND 76 CURRENTLY IN
YORK.
RIGHT NOW, IT IS DRY ON SUPER
DOPPLER 8 LOCALLY, BUT YOU CAN
SEE SOME SPRINKLES TRYING TO
MOVE TOWARD SHAPERS TOWN IN
LEBANON COUNTY.
TO THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST, WE
ARE SEEING SOME SHOWERS.
THAT IS THANKS TO SOME
UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCES AND THE
DEEP DIP IN THE JET STREAM.
NOT RULING OUT ONE OR TWO
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE

TOMORROW.
WATCH WHAT HAPPENS ON THE

THERE IS THAT UPPER-LEVEL
DISTURBANCE ROTATING TO THE

TO TOMORROW, AND FLIGHTS
OFFSHORE.
THAT IS WHEN THE WIND IS TO
CHANGE DIRECTION, HUMMING BACK
UP FROM THE SOUTH AND IN
BRINGING TROPICAL HUMIDITY
SLOWLY BACK INTO THE VALLEY.
THURSDAY WILL START TO FEEL
STICKY AND WE HAVE A CHANCE FOR
HAVING SHOWERS LATE IN THE DAY
ON THURSDAY.
TH HEAT REALLY STARTS TO BUILD,
I DON'T THINK THE FRONT WILL
MOVE INTO THE VALLEY.
UPPER 80'S BY THURSDAY, COULD
SEE SOME LATE THUNDERSTORMS LATE
THURSDAY NIGHT, BUT THAT HER
CHANCES FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS

LAUGHABLE AND IT'S SEXUAL
ASSAULT.

RECORD LOWS OVERNIGHT TONIGHT
AND THEN HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL
SLOWLY BUILD TO THE REST OF THE
WEST OF -- REST OF THE WORK
WEEK.
, WHICH WILL MAKE IT FEEL
STICKY AGAIN.A COLD FRONT WILL START TO
APPROACH THE REGION LATE
THURSDAY EVENING.
WE COULD SEE AN ISOLATED
SHOWERS, IT WILL START TO FEEL
STICKY AND THE FRONT GETS CLOSER
TO US BUT DOES NOT MOVED
THROUGH.
LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS TO
TEMPERATURES, THAT NEAR 90
DEGREES AS WE HEAD INTO FRIDAY
WITH CHANCES FOR SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
RAIN CHANCES WILL STICK AROUND
FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.
IT LOOKS RELATIVELY UNSETTLED.
A NUMBER OF CITIES AND
COMMUNITIES WILL BE HAVING THEIR
FIREWORKS DISPLAYS OVER THE
WEEKEND, SO STAY TUNED, THERE'S
A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS EVERY DAY.
I EXPECT HIT AND MISS SHOWERS
STARTING ON SUNDAY AND INTO THE
HOLIDAY.
WE COULD HAVE ANOTHER HEAT WAVE
ON OUR HANDS.
SUSAN: ANOTHER THREE DAYS, AT
LEAST.

CHRONICLING THE STORIES
IMPACTING OUR COMMUNITY.
STORIES MAKING A DIFFERENCE.
STORIES THAT MATTER TO YOU.
THIS IS KETV NEWSWATCH 7'S
CHRONICLE.
JULIE: FOR ALMOST TWO DECADES,
HE'S DEDICATED HIS LIFE TO
MAKING OMAHA'S STREET SCHOOL A
SUCCESS.
THE SCHOOL TAKES IN KIDS WHO,
FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER,
DIDN'T MAKE IT IN PUBLIC SCHOOL.
SOME WERE EXPELLED, OTHERS
DROPPED OUT,
AND IT GIVES THOSE AT-RISK TEENS
PERSONALIZED EDUCATION AND
SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE.
>> THERE WAS PRETTY CLEARLY A
NEED, WE THOUGHT, FOR THIS TYPE
OF SCHOOL IN NORTH OMAHA.
>> HE'S AMAZING.
WITHOUT HIM, I DON'T KNOW WHAT I
WOULD DO.
BECAUSE WITHOUT HIM, THERE
WOULDN'T BE THIS SCHOOL.
WITHOUT THIS SCHOOL I WOULDN'T
HAVE AN EDUCATION.
>> I'M HAPPY THAT EVERY KID THAT
HAS WALKED THROUGH THE DOORS HAS
BEEN TOLD THAT THEY WERE LOVED,
THAT THEY MATTERED, THAT THEY
HAD VALUE.
JULIE: AND NOW, JOHN PARSONS HAS
ANOTHER PASSION HE'S PURSUING.
HE STARTED "BRIDGES OUT OF
POVERTY,"
A NON-PROFIT PROGRAM GIVING POOR
FAMILIES IN THE OMAHA METRO THE
RESOURCES THEY NEED TO FIND A
WAY OUT.
GOOD MORNING.
I'M JULIE CORNELL.
TODAY ON "CHRONICLE," WE'RE
TAKING A CLOSER LOOK AT THE
"BRIDGES OUT OF POVERTY"
PROGRAM.
WE'LL BE TALKING WITH JOHN
PARSONS AND HIS PARTNER IN THIS
PROJECT, RETIRED ACCOUNTANT
ROGER HOWARD.
AND WE'LL HEAR FROM A COUPLE OF
STUDENTS WHO'VE JUST GRADUATED
FROM THE FIRST CLASS.
FIRST THOUGH, WE WANT TO LOOK AT
THE NUMBERS.
THE POVERTY LINE IS JUST OVER
$24,000 A YEAR FOR A FAMILY OF
FOUR.
BASED ON THAT, 12.6% OF
NEBRASKANS ARE LIVING IN
POVERTY.
IN THE OMAHA METRO, THAT ADDS UP
TO ABOUT 100,000 PEOPLE, AND IT
AFFECTS JUST OVER 16% OF THE
STATE'S CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE
OF 18.
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT POVERTY IN
TERMS OF RACE AND ETHNICIT
IT AFFECTS ABOUT ONE IN THREE
AFRICAN AMERICANS AND NATIVE
AMERICANS.
ABOUT 25% OF ASIANS AND LATINOS
ALSO ARE LIVING IN POVERTY.
THAT NUMBER IS ABOUT TEN% FOR
-- 10% FOR WHITES IN NEBRASKA.
POVERTY, AS YOU'LL SEE IN THE
HALF HOUR, ISN'T ONE ISSUE, BUT
MADE UP OF A VARIETY OF FACTORS.
AMONG THEM, FOOD INSECURITY.
AND IN NEBRASKA, ABOUT 15% OF
HOUSEHOLDS EXPERIENCED
DIFFICULTY PROVIDING ENOUGH FOOD
TO FEED THEMSELVES OR THEIR
FAMILIES.
ON THE PLUS SIDE, ONLY ABOUT 7%
OF NEBRASKANS USED HIGH-COST,
HIGH-RISK FORMS OF CREDIT TO
MAKE ENDS MEET.
AND NEBRASKA RANKS FIFTH IN THE
COUNTRY WHEN IT COMES TO
AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
DESPITE SPENDING $18 TRILLION ON
THE WAR ON POVERTY SINCE 1964,
THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING IN
POVERTY HAS REMAINED THE SAME.
SO, OMAHA "BRIDGES OUT OF
POVERTY" HAS DEVELOPED A
COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTION, WITH A
GOAL OF HELPING 50,000
UNDER-RESOURCED INDIVIDUALS LIFT
THEMSELVES OUT OF POVERTY BY
2026
THIS IS A HUGE GOAL.
JOINING ME NOW TO TALK ABOUT HOW
THEY PLAN TO DO THAT ARE
"BRIDGES OUT OF POVERTY"
CHAIRMAN ROGER HOWARD AND
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JOHN PARSONS.
THANK YOU BOTH FOR BEING HER
OBVIOUSLY, YOU'RE PASSIONATE
ABOUT THIS TO POUR YOUR WHOLE
LIFE INTO IT.
WHAT IS BRIDGES?
IS IT THE CLASS, A MENTORI
PROGRAM, WHAT IS IT?
>> IT IS A PROGRAM.
IT IS A COMPREHENSIVE PROGRA
IT INVOLVES EDUCATING, HELPING
ASSISTING PEOPLE WHO LIVE BELOW
THE POVERTY LINE THAT YOU SHOWED
US AND HELPING THEM TILDE THE
RESOURCES, AND HOLD THEMSELVES
OUT OF POVERTY.
WE NEED BUSINESSES AND
GOVERNMENT AND EMPLOYERS A
OVER THE CITY AND METRO AREA TO
UNDERSTAND THE CONVERSATION SO
THEY WILL BE READY TO HIRE THE
FOLKS WHO WILL THEN BE READY TO
TAKE THE JOBS AND CHANGE THEIR
LIVES.
JULIE: ARE PEOPLE SIGNING UP FOR
THE CLASS?
IS IT A SIX-MONTH OR YEAR-LONG
COMMITMENT?
>> IT IS ONLY A 10 WEEK
COMMITMENT, AND ONCE THEY
GRADUATE, THEY WILL TRANSITION
INTO THE WORKPLACE.
AFTER THAT, THEY CAN STAY FOR A
LIFETIME BECAUSE WE HAVE AN
ALUMNI SITUATION.
JULIE: HOW DO PEOPLE COME TO
YOU?
WHAT STATE ARE THEY IN?
WHAT DO THEY NEED?
>> THE FOLKS WHO COME TO US HAVE
A LOT OF NEEDS.
IT IS HARD TO PINPOINT ONE
THING.
IT IS JUST THIS REASON WHY
PEOPLE AND THAT THE WAY THEY
ARE.
JULIE: IT IS NOT SO SIMPLE.
YOU SEE A GUY WITH A SIGN, AND
IT IS NOT LIKE GET A JOB.
POVERTY HAS MANY CO-CONTRIBUTING
FACTORS.
>> THAT IS EXACTLY RIGHT.
I THE TIME SOMEONE IS IN THAT
SITUATION, A LOT OF THINGS HAVE
PROBABLY HAPPENED.
SOME FOLKS MAY HAVE LOST A JOB
AND HAVE TROUBLE GETTING INTO
THE WORKFORCE.
THEY MAY HAVE CHILDREN AT HOME,
SO THEY MAY WIND UP STAYING
WHERE THEY ARE UNLESS THEY GET
HELP.
NOT EVERYONE IS AN EXTREME CASE.
THERE ARE FOLKS OUT THERE WHO
ARE HELPING FOLKS IN EXTREME
SITUATIONS, BUT THERE ARE SOME
FOLKS WITH MISSED OPPORTUNITIES,
ILLNESSES.
WE HAD SOMEONE GOT SICK AND HAD
TO DROP OUT OF SCHOOL, AND THAT
SET HIM BACK.
AND THOSE LED TO OTHER THINGS.
JULIE: I WOULD IMAGINE THERE ARE
FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES ALONG THE
WAY.
PEOPLE ALL MONEY.
-- PEOPLE OWE MONEY.
>> THERE ARE ABOUT 11 RESOURCE
THAT PEOPLE ARE MISSING IN
POVERTY.
PEOPLE LIVING WITHOUT THOSE
RESOURCES HAS A DIFFICULT TIME
CREATING A STABLE LIFESTYLE.
JULIE: IS TRANSPORTATION ONE OF
THOSE?
>> TRANSPORTATION IS DEFINITELY
ONE.
OR ARE SOME ORGANIZATIONS
HELPING WITH TRANSPORTATION FOR
PEOPLE IN POVERTY.
JULIE: YOU ARE NOT DOING THIS
ALONE.
OMAHA HAS A WIDE BASIS OF
NONPROFITS AIDING PEOPLE IN
POVERTY.
ARE YOU COLLABORATING?
>> WE HAVE ABOUT 40 PARTNERS,
EVENTUALLY WE WILL HAVE 150 OR
200.
EACH GROUP DOES SOMETHING WELL.
THEY HAVE EXPERTISE AND WE
CANNOT DUPLICATE THAT.
WE WILL BE WORKING WITH A LOT
ORGANIZATIONS TO HELP THESE
FOLKS MOVE ALONG.
JULIE: HOW DO YOU MEASURE
BENCHMARKS IN THIS PROGRAM?
HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU HAVE HAD
SUCCESS?
>> THE FIRST BENCHMARK WOULD BE
ENROLLMENT IN THE CLASS AND
FINISHING THE CLASS.
THAT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT IS
THE LINCHPIN, THE FOUNDATION OF
THE NEXT STEPS AFTER THAT.
A PART OF THE BRIDGES OUT OF
POVERTY MATERIAL IS THE IDEA
THAT THE INDIVIDUALS IN THE
CLASS, THEY ARE CALLED
INVESTIGATORS, WHEN THEY SET
AROUND THE TABLE AND INVESTIGA
POVERTY, THEY INVESTIGATE THEIR
SITUATION AND THINK ABOUT HOW I
CAN IMPROVE WHERE I AM AT.
AND THEY HAVE OWNERSHIP AND CAN
BUY INTO WHAT IS BEING OFFERED.
AFTER THE CLASS IS OVER, YOU
HAVE MOTIVATED PEOPLE TO MOVE
FORWARD.
THE BENCHMARKS, MORE BENCHMARKS
COME IN THE SECOND DAYS OF THE
PROGRAM, WHAT WE CALL GETTING
GOING.
THEN WE PLUG PEOPLE INTO
EDUCATION OR EMPLOYMENT OR
TRADES, OR WHATEVER THAT WOULD
LOOK LIKE.
THEN, WE ARE ABLE TO TRACK THE
AS THEY CHANGE THEIR LIVES AND
BUILD RESOURCES.
JULIE: IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU START
WHERE THEY ARE AND HELP TH
RECOGNIZE THAT THEY HAVE
STRENGTHS.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
PEOPLE IN POVERTY ARE PROBLEM
SOLVERS.
THEY DEAL WITH STRUGGLES EVERY
DAY, AND THEY ARE AMAZING
PEOPLE.
>> JUST ONE OF THE TIE-INS TO
THE STREET SCHOOL IS WE WOULD DO
THE SAME THING AT THE STREET
SCHOOL.
IF A STRANGER CAME TO OUR DOOR,
WE TESTED EVERYONE.
WHAT IS THE READING AND MATH
LEVEL?
WE STARTED EDUCATING THEM FROM
WHERE THEY ARE.
WE HOOKED UP WITH ROGER AND HE
HAD THIS IDEA, AND WE TALKED
THROUGH THAT.
ONE OF THE THINGS I LIKED IS WE
HELP PEOPLE WHERE THEY ARE.
IT DOES NOT DO US ANY GOOD TO
HAVE A PROGRAM AT THIS LEVEL IF
PEOPLE WHO COME IN THE DOOR ARE
STILL AT THIS LEVEL SKILL WISE.
YOU HAVE TO GRAB THEM WHERE THEY
ARE SO YOU CAN BUILD AND GET
THEM TO WHERE THEY NEED.
JULIE: IF I DO NOT HAVE PROBLEM
RATING -- READING, I DO NOT
NEED A READING CLASS.
DO YOU HAVE PEOPLE COMING OUT TO
HELP YOU WITH PRIORITY STUDENTS?
>> IT IS AMAZING IN TERMS OF
SUPPORT.
WE WILL BE TRAINING THE FRONT
LINE STAFF AT CHI HEALTH,
THROUGH THE HR DEPARTMENT AND
MEDICAL STAFF AS WELL SO WE CAN
DO A BETTER JOB OF CARING FOR
THEIR HELP, AND ALSO OFFER THEM
A GOOD HEALTH CARE OPPORTUNITIES
FOR EMPLOYMENT.
JULIE: THOSE ARE DECENT PAYING
JOBS.
HOW MUCH DOES HAVING A PLACE TO
LIVE, HOW MUCH DOES THAT PLAY
INTO IT?
IS THAT ONE OF THE FACTORS FOR
HOMELESSNESS OR POVERTY?
>> IT IS.
>>ROGER MENTIONED THIS EARLIER,
BUT IT BEARS UP EATING.
WE HOPE TO GET THE COGNITIVE
CHANGE TO THE CLASS, AND THE
PARTNERSHIPS COME WITH THE
PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE
ALREADY DOING GREAT THINGS.
OPEN-DOOR MISSION.
IF HOMELESSNESS IS AN ISSUE, WE
WILL CONNECT TO THOSE AGENCIES
AND SAY, HERE ARE SOME FOLKS YOU
MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP.
HE HOPE TO HAVE CLASSES AT THOSE
AGENCIES AS WELL.
IT IS A TWO-WAY STREET.
WE HAVE THIS THING WE THINK CA
HELP YOUR PEOPLE, AND WE HAVE
SOME FOLKS WHO NEED WHAT YOU ARE
DOING.
IT IS A GIVE-AND-TAKE IN THE
COMMUNITY.
THAT IS APPLY -- THAT IS WHY A
LOT OF COMMUNITIES HAVE GOTTEN
ON BOARD BECAUSE THEY SEE THE
BENEFIT FOR THE PEOPLE AND --
JULIE: THEY HAVE BETTER OUTCOMES
BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS FOLLOWED
THIS PERSON.
>> THAT IS RIGHT.
JULIE: WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO
KNOW?
YOU ARE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS
AND MENTORS.
YOU CANNOT DO THIS ALONE.
>> ON OUR WEBSITE, YOU CAN SIGN
UP FOR VOLUNTEERING, YOU CAN
SIGN UP FOR CLASSES, OR SEND US
AN GMAIL AND WE CAN HAVE A CUP
OF COFFEE.
JULIE: WHY DO YOU NEED MENTORS?
>> ONCE YOU GET DONE WITH TH
INITIAL CLASS, YOU NEED SOMEONE
TO WALK ALONGSIDE WITH YOU.
SOME PEOPLE ARE UNDER RESOURCED
BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE A
SUPPORT SYSTEM.
IF THEY HAVE SOMEONE WHO HAS
SKILL SETS THEY DON'T, THEY CAN
OUNCE IDEAS OFF OF THEM.
JULIE: LIKE A FRIEND ON THE
JOURNEY.
WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A BREAK,
BUT WHEN THEY COME BACK WE WILL
TALK TO TWO GRADUATES FROM THE
PROGRAM AND FIND OUT HOW THE
PROGRAM WORKS.
YOU'RE WATCHING "CHRONICLE."
JUH
7'S "CHRONICLE
THIS MORNING, WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT A NEW PROGRAM THAT'S JUST
GETTING STARTED HERE IN OMAHA
CALLED "BRIDGES OUT OF POVERTY."
AND JOINING ME NOW ARE LEO MARKS
AND KETURAH WRIGHT, BOTH RECENT
GRADUATES OF THE PROGRAM.
ALONG WITH JOHN PARSONS WHO'S
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
HOW DID YOU FIND BRIDGES?
>> IT WAS A FRIEND OF MINE A
SHE ACTUALLY TOLD ME ABOUT THE
PROGRAM A LITTLE BIT.
SHE TOLD ME IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR
ME.
ACTUALLY, I DECIDED TO TRY I
BECAUSE I LIKE TO BE IN
POSITION TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE.
TO SEE IF I COULD DO ANYTHING.
JULIE: WHAT IS THE BIGGEST THING
YOU LEARNED ABOUT YOURSELF IN 10
WEEKS?
>> FOR ME, I THINK MY PRIDE GETS
IN THE WAY OF ME BEING ABLE TO
ASK FOR HELP.
IT IS DIFFICULT FOR ME TO ASK
FOR HELP, SO THAT WAS A MOMENT
THAT HELPED ME IN THE PROGRAM.
JULIE: BECAUSE ONCE YOU OPEN UP
AND SAY I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING,
OR I'M GOOD AT THIS BUT NOT GOOD
AT THIS, IT HELPS, DOESN'T IT?
HOW ABOUT YOU, LEO?
>> I CAME WITH SHARON JACKSON.
SHE FACILITATED THE GETTING
AHEAD PROGRAM FOR ME AT THE
STEPHENSON CENTER.
I WAS IMPRESSED WITH IT AND
VOLUNTEERED TO DO ANYTHING I
COULD.
SHE PULLED ME OUT AS A
FACILITATOR WITH CLASSES THERE,
AND WHEN SHE WORKED WITH JOHN, I
FOLLOWED HER TO THE "BRIDGES OUT
OF POVERTY" GROUP.
JULIE: ARE YOU HELPING OTHERS
GET TO THIS JOURNEY?
>> YES>>.
JULIE: WHAT IS THE GREATEST
THING YOU HAVE LEARNED ABOUT
THIS?
>> YOU ARE ONLY POOR IF YOU DO
NOT GIVE BACK.
THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO IS
NOT SAY THANK YOU.
THEN, YOU ARE REALLY POOR.
JULIE: SO GIVING BACK BRINGS IT
ALL AROUND?
>> YES.
>> EARLIER, WE TALKED ABOUT
MEASUREMENTS.
SOME THINGS ARE EASIER TO
MEASURE THAN OTHERS.
GRADUATES OR JOB PLACEMENT.
ONE OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE
BRIDGES CLASS IS THE COMMUNITY
YOU BUILD AT THE TABLE.
WE CALL IT KITCHEN STYLE, AND
THE INVESTIGATORS INVESTIGATE
THE SITUATION TOGETHER.
WE SHARE, THEY BRING THINGS TO
THE TABLE SO A TEACHER DOESN'T
SAY, YOU DO THIS, YOU DO THAT.
THE COMMUNITY IS ONE OF THOSE
INTANGIBLES THAT IS HARDER TO
MEASURE.
JULIE: YOU START WITH A FRESH
COMMUNITY.
WE ALL HAVE OUR BUDS WE GREW UP
WITH, BUT IT IS GREAT TO HAVE
NEW IDEAS.
DO YOU HAVE NEW IDEAS, KETURAH?
>I DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU ON TH
SPOT.
>> IT OPENED UP A CREATIVE
OUTLET FOR ME.
I HAVE BEEN MORE CREATIVE AND
THEN DESIGNING THINGS.
JULIE: SEE WHERE THAT TAKES YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> FOR ME, TAKING BETTER CARE
MY HEALTH IS AN ONGOING ISSUE.
I LEARNED TO FOCUS THOSE GOALS.
YOU CAN SAY GET HEALTHY, B
THAT MEANS NOTHING.
IF YOU GO TO THE GYM THREE TIMES
A WEEK, NOW I AM ON TO
SOMETHING.
I HAVE CUT BACK ON HOW MUCH I
SMOKE, I >> DO NOT COPY ANYMORE.
>> WHAT?
[LAUGHTER]
>> THAT PROGRAM HELPED ME FOCUS.
I THINK OF IT LIKE A SNIPER
SCHOOL.
USE -- YOU ZERO IN ON WHAT
YOU HAVE TO DO.
>> WE HAD A FIVE GRADUATES I
THE FIRST CLASS.
THE IDEAL SIZE FOR A CLASS IS
SIX TO 12.
YOU DO NOT WANT TO GET TOO BIG
OR BE TOO SMALL.
WE HAD A SIX IN THE CLASS, A
ONE LADY COULD NOT FINISH WITH
US, BUT SHE WILL COME BACK IN
THE NEXT CLASS.
JULIE: DO YOU SEE YOUR SELF
HAVING SEVERAL CLASSES ACROSS
THE CITY?
IS THAT THE IDEAL?
>> WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE
CLASSES ON OUR SITE, BUT W
INTEND TO HAVE PARTNERS ALL OVER
THE COMMUNITY AND HAVE CLASSES
AT "HABITAT" AND " LEARNIN
COMMUNITY.
ANY" PLACE OR WE CAN HAVE A
TABLE AND SIT AROUND IT.
JULIE: WAS AT A DISADVANTAGE
CHILDHOOD?
WHAT SET YOU UP TO WHERE YOU ARE
NOW?
>> I HAD BROKEN MY LEG ONE YEA
AND LOST EVERYTHING.
JULIE: AN ACCIDENT.
>> IT WAS DIFFICULT TO PICK
MYSELF UP FROM THAT.
AND BEING PRIDEFUL AND NOT
ASKING FOR HELP.
JULIE: AND THINGS GOT WORSE.
HOW ABOUT YOU, LEO?
>> I WAS HOMELESS FOR THREE
YEARS, AND I GOT INTO AN
APARTMENT IN THE SUPPORTIVE
HOUSING APARTMENTS.
ONCE I GOT GROUNDED AND LOOKED
AT WHAT I DO NEXT, THIS CLASS
REALLY FELL INTO MY LAP.
I TOOK IT BECAUSE I RESPECTED
SHARON AND STILL DO AND WHAT SHE
CAN DO THERE AT THE STEVENS
CENTER.
I TOOK THE CLASS WITH HER, AND
BY THE THIRD NIGHT, I WAS A
BELIEVER.
JULIE: DO YOU FEEL YOU ARE A
TEACHER NOW?
YOU HAVE ANGST TO SHARE.
>> I CAN TALK TO PEOPLE AT THAT
LEVEL.
WE HAVE TALKED TO GUESTS AT THE
HOMELESS SHELTER.
I CAN TALK TO THEM ON THAT AND
SAY, I WAS WHERE YOU ARE.
COME THE WHERE I AM NOW.
JULIE: THAT IS SO POWERFUL.
THIS IS BASED ON ANOTHER
NATIONAL MODEL, RIGHT?
>> THE WORDS "BRIDGES OUT OF
POVERTY" IS A NATIONAL
CURRICULUM.
ROGER CALLED AND SAID, CAN WE
USE YOUR NAME IN OUR LOCAL
ORGANIZATION?
AND THEY SAID, SURE.
THAT TIES INTO WHAT LEO WAS
TALKING ABOUT.
ONE OF THE BEAUTIES OF THE CLASS
AND THE "BRIDGES OUT OF POVERTY"
MODEL, WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEONE
STAND UP AND SAY, A YEAR AGO I
WAS HOMELESS OR JOBLESS AND A
YEAR LATER I AM NOW AT A
CONFERENCE TALKING BECAUSE I WAS
HIRED BY THE "BRIDGES" PEOPLE.
YOU SEE IN POWERED LIVES.
THE CONFERENCE -- YOU SEE EMPO
WERED LIVES.
YOU SEE THAT IT IS WORKING.
IT IS NOT 10 WEEKS IN A
CERTIFICATE, IT IS
LIFE-CHANGING.
JULIE: HOW ARE YOU FUNDING THIS?
IS IT PRIVATE DONATIONS?
WHAT ARE YOU HOPING FOR?
>> I HOPE WE WILL HAVE A DIVERSE
BASE.
PRIVATE DONATIONS WRITE GRANTS
TO LOCAL FOUNDATIONS.
CORPORATE GIFTS.
SOME OF OUR EARLY PARTNERS HAV
GIVEN US MONEY TO HELP US GET
STARTED.
WE ARE IN THE MARKET.
WE HOPE, AS WE GROW AND THINK
STRATEGICALLY IN 10 YEARS, WE
HOPE TO HAVE THE TYPE OF FUNDING
THAT WOULD NOT HAVE US TAKE FROM
OTHER INDUSTRIES.
IF WE COULD HAVE SOMEONE HELP US
WITH HOW THIS LOOKS IN THE
COMMUNITY.
WE DO NOT WANT TO TAKE MONEY
FROM THE OPEN DOOR MISSION.
WE WANT THEM TO KEEP DOING THE
GOOD THINGS THEY ARE DOING AND
HAVE US CORNERBACK.
JULIE: THERE IS NO REPEAT
SERVICES.
YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING UNIQUE.
>> GOING BACK TO THE STREE
SCHOOL DAYS, THERE ARE A LOT OF
PEOPLE DOING A LOT OF GOOD
THINGS IN THE COMMUNITY.
BUT THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF
NONPROFITS.
SOME OF THE BIGGER NONPROFITS DO
NOT HAVE JOBS FOR PEOPLE TO
CONNECT THEM TO OTHER AGENCIES.
THE NICHE THAT WE SEE OURSELVES
STEPPING INTO IS BEING THE
CONNECTOR FOR PEOPLE WHO A
DOING GOOD THINGS, AND WHERE
DOES KETURAH AND LEO NEED TO GET
TO, SO WE CAN CONNECT THE DOTS?
THE NICHE IS DIFFERENT.
THE RESPONSE HAS BEEN GOOD, TOO.
JULIE: WHAT WOULD YOU SAY
SOMEONE WHO IS IN YOUR SITUATION
A COUPLE YEARS AGO?
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO THEM?
>> I WOULD SAY, ASK QUESTION
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR
HELP.
YOU MIGHT BE IN A POSITION T
HELP SOMEONE ELSE.
YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO PULL
SOMEONE ELSE UP AND IT GOES
AFTER THAT.
JULIE: YOU TALKED ABOUT THAT
EARLIER.
YOU ARE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE WHO
ARE HOMELESS ON THE STREETS.
>> SURE.
IT IS AN EASY SELL.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE PROGRAM,
YOU CAN HAVE YOUR POVERTY BACK.
[LAUGHTER]
JULIE: THERE YOU GO.
>> WE ARE THERE TO HELP THEM GET
OUT.
JULIE: IT HELPS TO HAVE AN OPEN
MIND AND BE POSITIVE, RIGHT?
>> M BELIEVE IT CAN HAPPEN.
ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS OF BEING
PART OF THIS PROGRAM IS SEEING
THE MIRACLES THAT HAPPEN WITH
PEOPLE.
THE FIRST CLASS I
CO-FACILITATED, WE HAD A YOUNG
MAN IN THERE WHO GOT CLEAN AND
SOBER, HE GOT AN APARTMENT, AND
THAT WAS AS FAR AS HE HAD MADE
IT.
NOW, HE WENT TO THE PROGRAM.
HE IS A VOLUNTEER AT THE PROGRAM
WITH SUPPORTIVE HOUSING, WE DID
A PRODUCTION OF "SCROOGE" LAST
YEAR AND HE WAS SCROOGE.
JULIE: HE IS LIVING, NOT JUST
SURVIVING.
>> HIS DAUGHTER BENEFITS, HIS
NEIGHBOR BENEFITS.
JULIE: I AM SO EXCITED TO TALK
TO ALL OF YOU.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR
STORIES IN VISION.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH SOME
FINAL THOUGHTS.
FIRST, A REMINDER THAT YOUR
COMMENTS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART

Kansas City just found itself near the top of a very good list - Duration: 1:11.

THERE ARE SEVERAL REASONS FOR
THAT.
>> THE MAGAZINE SAYS KANSAS CITY
HAS SEVERAL THINGS GOING FOR IT.
INCLUDING A VIBRANT ECONOMY IN
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE BUSINESSES,
LIKE LAW, TECHNOLOGY A
ARCHITECTURE.
>> WE'VE GOT 3 OF THE TOP 25
ENGINEERING FIRMS LOCATED HERE

ACCOUNTING IS IN THERE, SO,
WE'VE GOT H&R BLOCK

HERE'S ANOTHER MAJOR FACTOR.
THE COST OF LIVING.
KANSAS CITY-AND THE MIDWEST IN

KANSAS CITY HAS GOT THIS GRE
MIXTURE OF GREAT OPPORTUNITY AND
IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE

REPORTER: WHANG IS THE VICE
PRESIDENT IN CHARGE OF

ANOTHER ADVANTAGE HERE IS KANSAS
CITY'S CENTRAL LOCATION MAKES IT
A TRANSPORTATION HUB.
AND THE METRO WORK FORCE IS WELL
EDUCATED.
>> OVER 42% OF THE METRO WORK
FORCE HAS AT LEAST AN ASSOCIATES

NATIONAL I THINK IT'S ABOUT 39%.

Breast Surgery of Man-Dr.Cortes-YouTube - Duration: 6:01.
Hi, this is Dr. Hourglass, and welcome to another video in our channel Wonder Breasts.
Today we are going to discuss: The goals of breast surgery for men.
In this channel we discuss everything related to breast surgery.
Welcome back!
Nowadays, men will also undergo plastic surgery procedures to enhance the appearance of their bodies.
For men with gynecomastia, the intervention is usually focused on the treatment of hypertrophy
or enlarged breasts.
Men have cosmetic surgery done on their breasts to correct any excess volume on their chest area,
which causes them to have relatively large man breasts.
This is a physical characteristic that is not psychologically acceptable to men.
Breast aesthetic surgery involves the elimination of the glandular hypertrophy, fat hypertrophy
or mixed type, combination of glandular hypertrophy and fatty tissue hypertrophy.
In cases of glandular hypertrophy you may require surgery if the gynecomastia or the excessive increase
of the mammary gland of a male patient has not dissapeared naturally.
Surgery allows you to eliminate the excess glandular tissue.
Usually, overweight or obese patients are affected with fat hypertrophy.
Fat hypertrophy, which is characterized by the accumulation of adipose tissues at the chest area
or adipomastia, can be treated through a simple liposuction so long as the area
does not have saggy skin.
Liposuction is also a sufficient treatment to the combined hypertrophy, eliminating gynecomastia
and adipomastia at the same time.
However, in cases that gynecomastia is in an advanced stage,
the surgical techniques of breast reduction are necessary.
The removal of the gynecomastia is carried out under general anesthesia
after which, the patient can be discharged.
Taking all this into consideration, male cosmetic breast procedures can truly enhance a man's body
by providing him with a more masculine chest.
Since the recovery period is relatively quick, many choose to undergo this surgery.
In this video, we discussed the goals of breast surgery for men.
Next week we will discuss: Enlarged breasts in men.

LeBron James Will Reportedly 'Never' Join The Clippers - Duration: 1:37.
Hey guys, what's going on?
For Complex News, I'm Tamara Dhia.
As the window continues to close on LeBron James Cleveland Cavaliers' contract with just
under a year left, rumors are swirling that he's setting his sights on Los Angeles in
2018.
While NBA fans ponder whether or not that means he's angling towards a spot with the
Lakers or the Clippers, The Undefeated's Mike Wise says that you can definitively scratch
one of those teams off the list: The Clippers.
Despite reports that they hired NBA executive Jerry West as a consultant in an attempt to
lure King James in, it's looking like the NBA star wants no part of the troubled franchise.
During a recent appearance on the "Freddie and Fitz" podcast, Wise dropped the bombshell.
"I got from a very good authority - a very good authority - that LeBron James will never
be a Clipper.
I can't tell you who, but I'm going to tell you it's somebody that knows, and LeBron James
will never be a Clipper."
He doesn't explain exactly why but did offer up some educated guesses.
"I don't know if that's because he remembers what the Clippers used to be, or he just doesn't
want to put his lot in there, or he thinks Steve Ballmer is just too animated on the
sideline."
That pretty much narrows the field to just the Lakers if the rumors are true that LeBron
is itching to move to Los Angeles.
Prior to the draft, the now-newly minted Laker, Lonzo Ball, even made a recruitment pitch
to Bron via ESPN's "The Six."
In the end, we'll all have to wait and see where he ends up, but what is your guess?
Where do you think LeBron will end up in 2018?
Sound off in the comments below and for the rest of today's updates, keep it locked right
here to Complex.

MARLEI: IT IS AS SIMPLE AS 1, 2,
3.
WELL MAYBE IT'S NOT SO SIMPLE.

CLEARLY.
AND WE WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE
BEST PATH AND REMOVE THE

IMAGINED 10 YEARS AGO, BUT IT'
GOING TO BECOME ALMOST EVERY DAY
TECHNOLOGY.
>> SO YOU'RE 400 FEET IN THE AIR
AND YOU CAN SEE SEVERAL MILES OF
AN AREA.
BEING ABLE TO PICK OUT A PERSON
IN THAT DISTANCE IS A LITTLE
DIFFERENT, BUT YOU'RE ABLE TO
SEE THE RIVER REALLY CLEARLY.
YOU CAN SEE THE TREES VERY
CLEARLY.
AND ONCE WE FOUND WHERE THE
PEOPLE WERE, THEY SHOW UP THESE
LITTLE WHITE DOTS BASICALLY.
MARLEI: THE WATER IS LOW NOW,
BUT LATER THIS WEEK COULD SEE
MORE RAIN AND HEIGHTENED WATER
LEVELS.
SO BEFORE YOU GO OUT ON TH
RIVER, LT. FARRELL SAYS KEEP
THIS IN MIND.
>> TAKE A CELL PHONE WITH YOU

HAVE A PLAN.
IT TAKES A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF
TIME TO MAKE THAT TRIP ON THE
CAHABA.
BE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH DAYLIGHT

FROM THE HOME.
FOUR PEOPLE WERE INSIDE BUT WERE
ABLE TO GET OUT SAFELY.
THE HOMEOWNER WAS ABLE TO SAVE
HER FATHER IN LAW, WHO IS

>> MY FATHER-IN-LAW WAS
HOLLERING, AND HE'S SITTING
THERE WITH FLAMES UP TO THE ARM
OF HIS CHAIR, TRYING TO HIT IT
WITH A BLANKET, SAYING 'WE'VE
GOT TO TRY TO PUT THIS OUT.' I
SAID 'NO, NO, NO.' BECAUSE

THERE IS NOT MUCH THEY CAN DO TO
STOP IT.

IS ON A PHONE.
LARISSA: AND LAW ENFORCEMENT
BELIEVE THAT COULD BE THE CAUSE
BEHIND SEVERAL RECENT DEADLY
CRASHES ACROSS THE STATE.
>> IT DOESN'T TAKE BUT JUST A
SECOND.
LARISSA: BUT TOO MANY PEOPLE
DON'T THINK DISTRACTED DRIVING
AFFECTS THEM.
>> I'M CONVINCED EVERY PERSON
THAT'S BEEN KILLED IN A TRAFFIC
ACCIDENT DUE TO DISTRACTED
DRIVING, THEY DIDN'T THINK IT
WOULD AFFECT THEM EITHER, BUT IT
DID.
LARISSA: OFFICERS SAY IT'S
BECOMING AN EPIDEMIC, BUT THERE
IS A LAW DESIGNED TO HELP.
>> IT LOOKS GOOD ON PAPER, BUT
THE REALITY IS IT'S NO GOOD.
LARISSA: ALABAMA LAW ONLY
SPECIFIES TEXTING AND DRIVING SO
I COULD LITERALLY BE DOING
ANYTHING ELSE AND WOULDN'T GET A
TICKET.
>> IT DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT
TALKING ON THE PHONE, YOU CAN
PLAY GAMES ON THE PHONE.
LARISSA: OFFICERS NEED A SEARCH
WARRANT TO LOOK THROUGH YOUR
PHONE AND EVEN IF THEY CAN PROVE
YOU WERE TEXTING, IT IS ONLY A
$25 FINE.
>> IF YOU SAID I WASN'T TEXTING,
I WAS CHECKING MY EMAILS THEN WE
CANNOT ENFORCE THAT.
LARISSA: MEANING OFFICERS' HANDS
ARE TIED.

CONCERNING.
WE HAVE GOT TO GET A GRIP ON IT.

AND ESSEX POLICE DEPARTMENT
WORKED IN COOPERATION TO GET
