RADAR. RAIN MOVING INTO METRO DETROIT TONIGHT WITH CONCERNS ABOUT POSSIBLE FLOODING AS THE
RAIN IS EXPECTED TO FALL
OVERNIGHT AND INTO TOMORROW.
NOT HERE YET, BUT ON ITS WAY.
GOOD TO HAVE YOU WITH US HERE
FOR LOCAL 4 NEWS AT FIVE. I’M
DEVIN SCILLIAN.
>> I’M KIMBERLY GILL. WE WANT
TO GET RIGHT OVER TO KIM ADAMS
FOR AN UPDATE. KIM, ARE WE AT
LEAST IN THE CLEAR THROUGH RUSH
HOUR? YES WE SHOULD BE IN THE
CLEAR THROUGH MOST OF RUSH
HOUR.
>> AT THE END OF RUSH HOUR.
THERE COULD BE JUST A FEW LIGHT
TO MODERATE RAIN SHOWERS, BUT
THE HEAVIEST RAIN WILL COME
AFTER ABOUT 7 OR 8:00 TONIGHT.
IT’S STILL WELL BACK TO OUR
WEST, MOVING THROUGH PARTS OF
GRAND RAPIDS, NORTH OF
KALAMAZOO. AND SOME STRONGER
THUNDERSTORMS NOW JUST CROSSING
OVER LAKE MICHIGAN AND GETTING
INTO THE WEST SIDE OF THE
STATE, BUT STILL HAVE A LITTLE
BIT OF LANDSCAPE TO GO THROUGH
BEFORE THEY MAKE IT HERE TO
METRO DETROIT. BUT ONCE THAT
RAIN GETS HERE, IT IS GOING TO
BE HEAVY. WE’LL HAVE A FEW
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS. THAT’S
GOING TO DROP QUITE A BIT OF
RAIN. AND ALSO CAUSE SOME
FLOODING. TAKE A LOOK AT THE
AMOUNTS. BY 8 A.M. TOMORROW
MORNING, WELL OVER AN INCH TO
AN INCH AND A HALF. AND THEN BY
TOMORROW NIGHT, WE SHOULD HAVE
UPWARDS OF TWO, POSSIBLY EVEN A
FEW POCKETS WITH TWO AND A HALF
OR THREE INCHES OF RAIN ON AN
ALREADY SATURATED GROUND. SO A
FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR
PARTS OF METRO DETROIT. NOT ALL
OF METRO DETROIT. GENESEE
LIVINGSTON. OAKLAND. MACOMB.
WASHTENAW AND WAYNE DOES NOT
INCLUDE THE THUMB. WE’LL TALK
MORE ABOUT TIMING AND WHEN THE
RAIN WILL BE LEAVING US COMING
UP. ALL RIGHT, KIM, RIGHT NOW,
THERE IS A MASSIVE BACKUP ON
I-94 IN MACOMB COUNTY, THE
WESTBOUND WESTBOUND LANES
CLOSED AT HARPER DUE TO A CRASH
INVESTIGATION THAT APPEARS TO
HAVE INVOLVED A PEDESTRIAN.
>> YEAH, THIS AREA IS A MESS
RIGHT NOW. SKY FOUR FLEW
OVERHEAD. WE COULD SEE MICHIGAN
STATE POLICE VEHICLES ON THE
SCENE, BUT WE’RE TOLD THAT THE
ROSEVILLE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS
HANDLING THE INVESTIGATION AND
NO WORD YET ON WHAT HAPPENED OR
WHEN THE FREEWAY WILL REOPEN.
DRIVERS SHOULD AVOID THE AREA,
IF POSSIBLE. TRAFFIC JAM CAUSED
BY THIS CLOSURE IS MORE THAN
TWO MILES LONG. WE’LL BRING YOU
AN UPDATE AS SOON AS WE GET
ANOTHER ONE.
>> OUR OTHER TOP STORY HERE AT
FIVE FEDERAL INVESTIGATORS ARE
ON SITE IN VAN BUREN TOWNSHIP
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT
CAUSED A COLD WAR ERA RUSSIAN
FIGHTER JET TO CRASH DURING THE
AIR SHOW AT WILLOW RUN. YEAH,
THAT CRASH BROUGHT THE THUNDER
OVER MICHIGAN AIR SHOW TO AN
ABRUPT END YESTERDAY. SO TODAY,
INVESTIGATORS FROM THE FAA AND
THE NTSB ON SITE GOING THROUGH
THE WRECKAGE OF THE MIG 23
FIGHTER RIGHT NEXT TO AN
APARTMENT COMPLEX. WILL JONES
SPENT THE DAY WORKING TO GET
NEW INFORMATION ON THE CRASH.
WHAT DO WE KNOW NOW? WILL DEVIN
AND KIMBERLY, INVESTIGATORS SAY
ENGINE FAILURES ARE TO BLAME
FOR THIS CRASH.
>> ONE OF THE TWO PILOTS HAS
SERIOUS INJURIES, BUT
THANKFULLY NO INJURIES ON THE
GROUND. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN SO
MUCH WORSE. AS YOU MENTIONED,
THIS PLANE CRASH JUST FEET AWAY
FROM AN APARTMENT BUILDING, ONE
OF THE CRASH AFTER AFTER THE
FIGHTER JET MADE ONE PASS AT
THE THUNDER OVER MICHIGAN AIR
SHOW AT WILLOW RUN AIRPORT
SUNDAY AFTERNOON. SOMETHING
WENT WRONG.
>> FIRST, I THOUGHT IT WAS LIKE
A PERFORMANCE, A TRICK. I
THOUGHT, OH, THEY SHOULDN’T BE
DROPPING THOSE THINGS. THEY
MIGHT HIT PEOPLE. AND THEN I
THOUGHT, OH, LOOK AT A GUY’S
PARACHUTING. AND THEN MY
NEIGHBOR SAID, THEY’RE
CRASHING. OH, NO.
>> THE PILOTS MAKING THE
DECISION TO EJECT THEMSELVES
DUE TO ENGINE FAILURES. THE JET
CRASHED AT THE WAVERLY ON THE
LAKE APARTMENTS IN VAN BUREN
TOWNSHIP AND THEN BURST INTO
FLAMES.
>> IT’S VERY FORTUNATE THAT, OF
COURSE, THAT NOBODY ON THE
GROUND WAS INJURED.
>> NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION
SAFETY BOARD INVESTIGATORS
SPENT PART OF THE DAY
DOCUMENTING THE ACCIDENT SCENE
FROM THE INITIAL IMPACT POINT
TO WHERE THE MAIN WRECKAGE CAME
TO REST BY THE APARTMENT
BUILDING HERE IS ABOUT 500FT
LONG.
>> SO THERE’S WRECKAGE, SMALLER
PIECES OF WRECKAGE SCATTERED
ALL ALONG THAT THAT AT THAT
PATH, THE DEPARTMENT OF
ENVIRONMENT, GREAT LAKES AND
ENERGY IS WORKING TO PREVENT
ANY FUEL THAT WAS LEAKED FROM
THE PLANE FROM FLOWING INTO A
NEARBY LAKE.
>> WE WANT TO STOP ANYTHING
GOING FURTHER THAN THAT CREEK.
>> I SPOKE WITH THE MAN OFF
CAMERA WHO WAS IN HIS APARTMENT
WHEN THIS JET CRASHED.
>> I CANNOT USE THE EXACT WORDS
HE SAID TO DESCRIBE HIS
EMOTIONS WHEN THAT JET CRASHED
. BUT DEVIN, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE
, THIS WAS AN EXPERIENCE THAT
HE IS NEVER GOING TO FORGET
ABOUT.
>> THAT WILL. ARE THEY TELLING
YOU HOW LONG THE INVESTIGATION
WILL TAKE?
>> WELL, A PRELIMINARY REPORT
SHOULD COME IN IN ABOUT TEN
DAYS. BUT THE FINAL REPORT WILL
TAKE ABOUT TWO YEARS. AND SINCE
THIS IS A RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT THAT
COULD MAKE THIS INVESTIGATION A
LITTLE MORE CHALLENGING, DEVIN,
THAT’S A WAIT.
>> ALL RIGHT, WILL, OTHER NEWS
TONIGHT HERE IN THE PAST HOUR
TO NINE. NIGERIANS CHARGED IN A
DEADLY SEXTORTION CASE MADE
THEIR FIRST APPEARANCE IN
COURT.
>> SAMUEL AND SAMPSON OGOSHI
FACE FEDERAL CHARGES IN THE
DEATH OF JORDAN. DEMI DEMI TOOK
HIS OWN LIFE IN 2022 AFTER HE
WAS ALLEGEDLY TRICKED ONLINE
INTO SENDING EXPLICIT PHOTOS OF
HIMSELF. SHAWN LEY TRAVELED TO
GRAND RAPIDS FOR TODAY’S
HEARING.
>> I ALWAYS HAD THIS CONFIDENT
FEELING THAT THEY WOULD FIND
WHO DID THIS TO JORDAN. I JUST
DID. AFTER THEY FOUND THESE
GUYS AND INDICTMENTS HAPPENED,
YOU KNOW, WE KNEW IT WAS GOING
TO BE A LONG PROCESS, BUT NOT
QUITE AS FAST AS IT ACTUALLY
HAPPENED.
>> JOHN DAME AND JENNIFER BUDA
HAVE BEEN LIVING A NIGHTMARE,
BUT TODAY IS LIKE A DREAM. WE
ARE WITH THE PARENTS OF JORDAN
DAME IN GRAND RAPIDS AND
HEADING INTO THE FEDERAL COURTS
BUILDING HERE. THEY WILL
FINALLY SEE THE MEN WHO
CONTACTED THEIR SON ONE NIGHT
THROUGH INSTAGRAM, POSING AS A
GIRL, PERSUADING, COMPROMISING
PICTURES TO BE SENT, AND THEN
IMMEDIATELY STARTED DEMANDING
MONEY FROM JORDAN, THREATENING
TO SEND THE PHOTOS TO EVERYONE
IN JORDAN’S LIFE. JORDAN SENT
MONEY THE MEN WOULD NOT RELENT.
HOURS AFTER BEING CONTACTED BY
THE MEN, JORDAN COULD NOT BEAR
IT. HE TOOK HIS OWN LIFE AT AGE
17, THE FEDS TRACKED THE MEN
DOWN TO NIGERIA, ARRESTED THEM
AND BROUGHT THEM BACK HERE TO
FACE CHARGES. FINDING EVIL THAT
LURKS ONLINE IS NOT EASY.
>> AND MAKE NO MISTAKE, CHARGES
OF THIS TYPE BROUGHT AGAINST
SUBJECTS OUTSIDE THE UNITED
STATES ARE RARE. SECURING
EXTRADITION OF THESE SUBJECTS
IS EVEN MORE RARE.
>> THROUGH THIS STORM. JORDAN’S
PARENTS DID THINK THE
EXTORTIONISTS WOULD BE CAUGHT.
>> I AM SURPRISED THAT WE’RE
HERE ALREADY. I’M HAPPY. I’M
GRATEFUL FOR THAT.
>> BACK YOUR LIFE. SO THE
BROTHERS THAT JUST MADE THIS
COURT APPEARANCE FROM NIGERIA,
WE’RE TALKING ABOUT SAMUEL AND
SAMSON OGOSHI, THEY’RE FACING
CHARGES NOW OF SEXUALLY
EXPLOITING TEENS AND OTHER
YOUNG MEN, INCLUDING JORDAN
DEMAY, BEING HELD WITHOUT BOND
RIGHT NOW. GUYS SO THIS JUST
WRAPPED UP AND JORDAN’S PARENTS
JUST WALK OUT AND WE JUST HAD A
CHANCE TO SPEAK WITH THEM. THEY
CAME IN VERY CONFIDENT. IT’S A
HARD DAY FOR THEM. AND I JUST
SIMPLY SAID, GUYS, WHAT WAS IT
LIKE TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM
WITH THEM? AND JENNIFER BROKE
DOWN. YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE
STRESS AND THE STRAIN OF ALL OF
THIS. AND THEN THEY FINALLY GOT
THESE GUYS IN COURT AND THE
PARENTS DID. THEY WERE
CONFIDENT THAT THEY WOULD CATCH
THESE GUYS EVEN THOUGH THEY
LURK IN THE DEEPEST, DARKEST,
MOST EVIL CORNERS OF THE
INTERNET. AND KIMBERLY, I KNOW
YOU SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN
MARQUETTE WITH THIS COUPLE.
THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY LOVELY AND
HAVE A LOT OF STRENGTH GOING
FORWARD AFTER THIS. THAT’S
RIGHT.
>> AND THE INVESTIGATORS ALSO
WHO WORKED TO BRING THESE TWO
MEN, THESE TWO BROTHERS BACK
HERE TO THE US TO FACE THESE
CHARGES, AS YOU SAID, WAS JUST
ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE. AN ND I
KNOW THERE’S NO RELIEF FOR THIS
FAMILY. THEY LOST THEIR SON,
BUT CERTAINLY THERE HAS TO BE
SOMETHING THAT THEY’RE FEELING
TODAY, BEING ABLE TO FACE THESE
THE PAST. YEAH
>> AND TO SEE THAT AT 6:00 WE
JUST SPOKE WITH THEM AND A
REALLY EMOTIONAL COUPLE OF
MINUTES WE SPENT WITH THEM JUST
NOW. WE’LL BRING IT TO YOU AT
6:00. AND YOU’RE RIGHT, WE
TALKED TO THE FBI ABOUT A YEAR
AGO. THEY PUT OUT A PUBLIC
HEALTH WARNING ABOUT THIS. AND
WE TALKED TO HOW DO YOU TRACK
THESE PEOPLE DOWN AND THE
THOUGHT THEN WAS IT’S REALLY
HARD. AND WHO HAS THE MANPOWER
AND TIME TO DO THAT? THESE GUYS
DID. AND THEY’RE GOING TO
CONTINUE TO GO AFTER PEOPLE WHO
DO THIS INCREDIBLE WORK. ALL
RIGHT, SEAN, WE APPRECIATE YOUR
REPORT TONIGHT.
>> OKAY. A NEW WEEK COULD BRING
A NEW INDICTMENT AGAINST FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP. TODAY, THE
FULTON COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY
IN GEORGIA INVESTIGATING
ALLEGED EFFORTS TO OVERTURN THE
TRUMP LOSS THERE BEGAN
PRESENTING HER CASE TO A GRAND
JURY. BREE JACKSON IN
WASHINGTON WITH WHAT IT COULD
MEAN FOR THE FORMER PRESIDENT
AND HIS POLITICAL RIVALS. BREE
>> DEVIN, TWO FORMER STATE
LAWMAKERS FROM GEORGIA WERE
SEEN AT THE FULTON COUNTY
COURTHOUSE TODAY. AND WE DO
KNOW THAT MORE WITNESSES ARE
LINED UP FOR TUESDAY, INCLUDING
GEORGIA’S FORMER LIEUTENANT
GOVERNOR. MEANWHILE, FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP SPENT PART OF
THIS DAY BLASTING POTENTIAL
WITNESSES ON SOCIAL MEDIA. ALL
EYES ON THE FULTON COUNTY
COURTHOUSE AS DISTRICT ATTORNEY
FANI WILLIS PRESENTS HER CASE,
ARGUING THAT FORMER PRESIDENT
TRUMP AND HIS ALLIES BROKE THE
LAW IN THEIR EFFORTS TO
OVERTURN GEORGIA’S 2020
ELECTION RESULTS, LAYING OUT
EVIDENCE, INCLUDING THIS 2021
CALL TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE.
>> I JUST WANT TO FIND. 11,780
VOTES.
>> THE GRAND JURY IS ALSO
EXPECTED TO HEAR FROM KEY
WITNESSES, INCLUDING THE
STATE’S FORMER LIEUTENANT
GOVERNOR, JEFF DUNCAN.
>> HE WAS A LONG CRITIC OF
TRUMP AND THEIR ATTEMPTS TO
OVERTURN THE ELECTION. I THINK
THAT’S WHY SHE’S GOING TO HAVE
HIM TESTIFY.
>> LAST TRUMP LASHING OUT ON
TRUTH, SOCIAL CALLING DUNCAN A
LOSER AND UNLEASHING A TIRADE
AGAINST THE FULTON COUNTY DA
AND HER CASE AGAINST HIM. THE
GOP FRONTRUNNER INSISTS HE’S
INNOCENT.
>> WE DON’T TAKE PLEA DEALS
BECAUSE I DID NOTHING WRONG.
>> MR. TRUMP’S POTENTIAL FOURTH
INDICTMENT COULD COME JUST DAYS
BEFORE HIS REPUBLICAN RIVALS
FACE OFF IN THEIR FIRST DEBATE.
>> IT IF HE’S INDICTED IN
ATLANTA THIS WEEK, AS WE’RE
ANTICIPATING THAT HE WILL BE,
WE WILL HAVE THE FRONT RUNNER
FOR THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION
FOR PRESIDENT OUT ON BAIL IN
FOUR DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS.
>> AS FOR SOME, THERE’S A SENSE
OF INDICTMENT FATIGUE.
>> I FEEL AS IF IT’S ALL ONE
SIDED. WE REALLY NEED TO KIND
OF SAY, HEY, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE
A NEW REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT IS
NOT PART OF THAT TRUMP THING.
>> THE FULTON COUNTY DA IS
EXPECTED TO SEEK MORE THAN A
DOZEN INDICTMENTS RELATED TO
ELECTION INTERFERENCE. AND IF
FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS
INDICTED IN FULTON COUNTY,
GEORGIA, WE COULD SEE THE
ENTIRE PROCESS PLAY OUT ON LIVE
TELEVISION. AN UNLIKE HIS THREE
PREVIOUS COURT APPEARANCES,
GEORGIA LAW SAYS THAT CAMERAS
CAN BE IN THE COURTROOM WITH
THE JUDGE’S APPROVAL IN
WASHINGTON, BREE JACKSON, LOCAL
4.
>> ALL RIGHT, BREE, SEVERAL
FACTORS ARE CONSIDERED BY A
JUDGE, THOUGH, BEFORE ALLOWING
CAMERAS INTO A COURTROOM UNDER
GEORGIA LAW, JUDGES CAN WEIGH
CONCERNS OVER SAFETY AND THE
IMPACT CAMERAS COULD HAVE ON
DUE PROCESS. YES. SO A LOT LEFT
