jana katsuyama. joining us now in the studio with details on the dramatic day in court, jenna, christian justice gorsuch said today that this decision will be writing a rule for the ages in this case could lay out the entire scope of how we define presidential power. >> donald trump's attorney, d john sauer, began the hearing with his opening statements without presidential immunity from criminal prosecution, there can be no presidency as we know it. >> for 234 years of american history, no president was ever prosecuted for his official acts. >> sauer claimed donald trump's actions were official when trump tried to switch the 2020 election results to his favor, trump's attorney argued that a former president should qualify for immunity from prosecution for official acts while in office. but the government's attorney, michael dreeben, said such presidential immunity has no foundation in the constitution or the supreme court's history. >> this court has never recognized absolute criminal immunity for any public

official. his novel theory would immunize former presidents for criminal liability for bribery, treason, sedition, murder, and here conspiring to use fraud to overturn the results of an election and perpetuate himself in power. >> the supreme court justices acknowledged the magnitude of the hearing, and for more than 2.5 hours wednesday, they grilled attorneys on both sides. >> do you differentiate between the president acting as president and the president acting as candidate? >> trump's attorney said immunity should not cover private acts, but should cover official acts and the organization of alternate slates of electors. was trump taking official action? justice ketanji brown jackson asked about the dangers of immunity. >> the potential for criminal liability is taken off the table . wouldn't there be a significant risk that future presidents would be emboldened to commit crimes with abandon while they're in office? >> justice elena kagan

questioned if a president ordered a military coup, would it be considered immune? trump's attorney said it would be an official act, but should be addressed through impeachment. the justices pressed trump's attorney on the question of how to distinguish between official and unofficial acts. >> no man's above the law and that the president can be prosecuted after he leaves office for his private conduct. is that right? >> we agree with that. >> and then the question becomes, as we've been exploring here today a little bit about how to segregate private from official conduct that may or may not enjoy some immunity. >> of the nine justices, three were nominated by trump, gorsuch, barrett and kavanaugh. but there was no really clear indication from their questions on how they plan to vote on this. >> okay, so what happens next? now that they've heard the arguments, what are the court's options? >> well, they could outright reject this immunity claim that would basically mean that it could be set for trial. the

second option could be that they accept it, and that would put a complete stop on the case. and then another option could be that they say we need to have more clarity. let's send it down to a lower court. but then of course, that could delay the trial past the november election . and if trump is elected, he could basically tell the doj to stop the case and stop the prosecution. >> okay. so it can play out a number of different ways. all right. we'll be watching. gianna. thank you. >> meantime, the former president was back in a new york courtroom today. he's on trial accused of falsifying business records in relation to alleged hush money payments to an adult film actress in the run up to the 2016 presidential election, when the former publisher of the national enquirer talked about the agreement he had with mr. trump to buy and kill negative stories during the 2016 campaign, david pecker said, by the time the stormy daniels story started shopping around, he'd already paid for two catch and kill deals, and he says he wasn't interested in making a third. mr. mr. trump has pleaded not guilty and says he plans to

testify. >> be sure i'll testify even if your lawyers tell you not to, i don't care. >> i did nothing wrong. >> meanwhile, prosecutors have accused trump of violating a gag order for the 14th time. mr. trump could face fines for violating the order against making public statements about witnesses and jurors, a hearing now set for next wednesday and a quick reminder that you can stay on top of all the latest news with the fox local app for your smart tv. in addition to being able to stream live newscasts and watch other content from the ktvu newsroom, you can also watch live national and international events as they happen. with the live now from fox stream. >> well, hundreds of muni parking enforcement officers rallied today directly in front of the san francisco municipal transportation agency that employs them. they say they're angry that they had to find out through news reports that the city is about to have a major parking crackdown, which they'll have to enforce and they say that puts them in danger. ktvu

tom vacar joins us now from san francisco with more on this story. tom >> well, almost everybody doesn't want to see a lot more parking tickets being issued, including most of the folks who actually hang them on cars as 16 san francisco parking control officers say previous stepped up parking enforcements or fine increases have led to increased threats and even assaults, making their work more dangerous without consulting them in advance, which puts a target on our backs and, you know, it puts us in a in a precarious situation with the residents and the challenges that we face. >> it shouldn't just be a top down decision. it's not thoughtful at all. and that should not be how we govern. >> we still haven't gotten a date, an actual date when we'll be doing that. >> officers also say drug addicted, mentally ill as well as unhoused people. add to their dangers. that's especially true in these unarmed officers are

being directed to ticket people living in their vehicles during encampment removals, as well as having to enforce parking rules at open air drug markets, weapons and, you know, vicious animals. >> we encounter that on a daily basis. >> they already don't like us. so i feel like this extra enforcement is just going to make them have much more animosity towards us officers. >> schexnayder learned that after ticketing a car in front of its angry owner, i followed me about 2 or 3 blocks and waited for me at the stoplight, approached my vehicle, punched the window and cut my muni station. agents say they experienced much of the same everything in the subway. >> what you see on the street is happening in the subway. also this is an important issue all by itself, but there's something else and it's for sure that this has political implications. >> and this is an election year. >> the buck stopped with the mayor. >> muni writes. our parking

control officers are provided de-escalation training, self-defense tools and have access to our internal dispatch center that communicates directly with sfpd for any assistance they need. now, the agency also says that since 2018, crime on the muni is down 48, but ridership is also down 29, which when you do the math, suggests that crime is actually down just 19. not quite as rosy reporting live, tom baker, ktvu, fox two news all right, tom, thank you. >> a man is on life support after his family says east bay park police tased him while he was knee deep in water. now, his family is demanding answers as to exactly what happened. >> also ahead, the nfl draft now underway and rumors are swirling that the 40 niners might make some big moves. plus free, free palestine, free palestine.

occupation, and in boston, more than 100 demonstrators were arrested at emerson college overnight in new york, leaders at columbia university say they will continue negotiating throughout at least midnight with students who have been camping out for more than a week. >> there's a constitutional right for people to express their views, and a constitutional right for people to come together and protest things, the university says. >> protesters agreed to remove tents and non-students from an encampment on the school's lawn. but thursday afternoon, the lawn did not look much different than it did earlier in the week, and some jewish students say they won't feel safe until that camp is removed. >> that's why the administration sends out some emails to students updating them on what's going on. it's pretty much we're being left to fend for ourselves, but signs of solidarity are starting to emerge. >> there is a united for israel rally on campus thursday night, and israeli flags are being placed not far from the protests. and on wednesday,

system that's undergoing a major upgrade. dispatch hours were forced to go into so-called manual mode and were still able to answer 911 calls. >> families in the san francisco unified school district will have a chance to discuss a plan to close or merge some of the district's schools. sfusd is holding another virtual town hall, which is currently under way. superintendent matt wayne set to discuss the results from a community survey and discussions that took place at the end of march and then early april. participants were asked to rate the importance of 16 different criteria to determine school mergers, co-locations and closures. the district's plan affects an unspecified number of schools. officials point to understaffing, declining enrollment and the condition of older schools. >> still ahead tonight, a nice day at the park turns into a nightmare for one family. we'll have the latest after their loved one was tased by an east bay park officer. and now that man is on life support and he

going to make it. and if he does, they are telling us that it definitely will not be the same. >> it happened at the martin luther king junior regional shoreline on april 5th. faison and a friend were hanging out near his car. a parks police car pulled up and noticed faison's car had expired tags. faison ran off and went into the water between the park and the oakland airport. the family's attorney says an officer tased faison in his back when he was knee deep in water. faison began swimming toward doolittle drive and struggled in the water for a half hour, at times calling for help before losing consciousness. >> they didn't take off their equipment, but they watched him, the family's attorney, jamir davis, says officers acted improperly. >> it shouldn't take an attorney to tell you that electricity and water don't mix. were bold enough to do that, but not brave enough to jump in and save them. >> authorities say he's a convicted felon with a warrant, but all that his family says is irrelevant. besides east bay regional park police, oakland police and fire and the alameda county sheriff's office were all on scene. authorities say they tried unsuccessfully to get help

the state has been running on 100% clean energy. newsom says the achievement is unprecedented and critical to achieving the state's ambitious goal of 100% clean electricity by 2045, 40 days out of the last 48, 40 of the last 48 days, we've been running 100% clean energy on the grid. >> this is simply unprecedented. the fifth largest economy in the world, 11 days straight, breaking all records 100. green wind, water, solar. i mean, it's just extraordinary. >> the state's energy grid says california has surpassed 10,000mw of battery storage capacity. the excess generation has gone to more battery storage and has been sent now to other states. >> artificial intelligence is proving to be a useful tool in health care, but there are still a lot of concerns about its full impact. today the california

health care foundation hosted a briefing in sacramento to discuss the impacts of ai on the state's health care system. some of the positives include ai's ability to quickly sift through data more accurately diagnose patients, and update medical records. >> i've seen and sat through so many demos. now some of the exciting things that could happen in cancer care, that advanced population care and diabetes or hiv. i mean, these are tremendous tools. if we use them responsibly, appropriately and fully transparent to help augment and support care. >> but as ai technology expands, there are concerns over data privacy and the possibility of algorithms producing biased results. >> a landmark rape conviction overturned with today's ruling from a judge means for movie mogul harvey weinstein, and a new government report showing sluggish growth as inflation still weighs heavily on many families. >> what the numbers reveal about the overall state of our economy

. >> and he had quite a run as a player and manager in major league baseball. now, some special recognition for former giants manager dusty baker

appeals court overturned his rape conviction that decision,

though, does not mean that weinstein will be getting out of jail. the court found that the trial judge improperly allowed witness testimony from alleged weinstein rape victims, who were not a part of the case. the 2020 conviction was a landmark ruling for the metoo era. ashley judd was the first actress to come forward and accuse weinstein at a metoo movement news conference today. she expressed outrage and disappointment over the ruling. >> this today is an act of institutional betrayal, and our institutions betray survivors of male sexual violence, and we need to work within and without the systems to start having what is known as institutional courage. >> weinstein's attorney says it was clear that his client did didn't get a fair trial. the 72 year old will remain in prison because he was convicted in los angeles in 2022 of another rape. >> well, changes could be coming soon to how the united methodist

church operates in the us. delegates with the church have voted in favor of a constitutional amendment to give each each region of the international church autonomy when it comes to making rules to better fit their local members to become official, it will require another vote, but if ratified, it could allow the american united methodist church to authorize rights for the lgbtq community. the federal communications commission voted today to bring back net neutrality rules. the fcc has agreed to ban internet service providers from blocking or slowing down consumers web access. the commission says the move is about restoring a national standard of regulation for the internet, for broadband reliability, security and consumer protection. regulatory oversight of broadband internet was rescinded during the trump administration. >> the nfl draft now underway, a night when dreams come true for players and fans. we will have a look at all the excitement and a sneak peek inside the 49ers draft war room and in barry

weather clouds moving in right now and overnight. >> there's a possibility we could have a few sprinkles or a few light showers, but the patt n will

usc star caleb williams. yeah, and there's lots of speculation as to whether the 49 ers might make some big moves as well. >> ktvu jason appelbaum live at 49ers headquarters in santa

clara. jason >> yeah. christian. you know, right behind me, this is the 49ers press room, where, head coach kyle shanahan and general manager john lynch. they will take the podium in a few hours after the 40 niners make their selection or trade their pick. they have the 31st pick overall, ten picks in all in this draft. and we want to take you inside. what's going on with them right now? a little sneak peek into their draft room. this is from years past. take a look, the 40 niners, all the key decision makers are in that room. lynch shanahan gathered together. they've compiled, compiled a list of players they are considering drafting, whether based on need or best player available, they've got their big board up on the wall and lynch, shanahan. they carry the most weight when it comes to who to select. but owner and ceo jed york, he's also in the room. he has a voice as well. and right before they make their pick, they'll call the player, let

them know that his life is about to change forever. and then there's some celebration on both ends. according to lynch, the 40 niners have given first round grades to 22 players, so they are hoping that one of those is available when they make their first selection later today. but if not, maybe they trade down and acquire more picks. and then there are the gold helmet players, as they call them, lynch says. these are the players who in their eyes are the cream of the crop, the best of the best in terms of what the niners are looking for. >> i believe we were about 16 gold helmets and we like keeping that standard high. you always want to give more. let's let's stick to our standards because the reason our hit rate is high is because it is such a high standard. we do well with those guys because it takes into account everything we believe in. you know, that's that's talent, that's spirit. and you know, playing like a 40 niner back to throw. >> okay. another thing we're keeping a close eye on is whether or not wide receiver

brandon aiyuk will still be a niner after today. aiyuk is in the final year of his contract. it's going to pay him $14 million. that's a lot of money. but he is looking for a multi year deal for a whole lot more than that. and he's staying away from the 40 niners practice facility from where we are now presumably until he gets what he wants which is paid or traded. there's a report out today that the niners may be interested in trading either aiyuk or deebo samuel. if they can move up into the top ten. it's a very deep draft for receivers and if that's going to happen, it's going to have to happen soon. so so christian and julie, that's the scene here. we're going to come back in about an hour and we'll find out if the 40 niners have made any moves, if they've drafted anybody made any trades, and if not, we're also going to look at when brock purdy was drafted, because we all remember that moment and how his life was changed forever. yeah i mean, a lot can happen between now and the next couple of days.

>> a lot of high stress, a lot of moving and shaking going around. so they have ten picks. the 40 niners have ten picks. jason i'm looking right now. they have one in the first round. second round third round. then they have three in the fourth round. so they're heavy in the later rounds. what's your sense on what do they need the most. where do you think they're going to go here potentially if they do pick in the number 31 spot where are they weak. and where are they going to try to fill? >> you know, it's funny, i was just in the in the media room talking to mike silver and a couple other guys in there. nobody knows when you're picking top three, there's a pretty good idea or top five when you're 31st overall, the speculation runs from an offensive tackle. maybe someone that could end up replacing trent williams to a wide receiver to an edge rusher, because the 40 niners seem to draft a lot of edge rushers, pass rushers in the first round. so nobody really knows. and i could, you know, we could throw out ten names and they could take somebody totally different. so that's the beauty of the draft. and in fact, nobody will

even remember the name that i tell him. if i were to tell him a name because they'd probably take somebody else and i'd be exonerated anyway. so. all right. >> well, we are all it's very exciting. we're all watching and waiting to see how it all shakes out, and we'll be checking in with you a little bit later. jason. thank you. >> former giants manager dusty baker has won the baseball digest lifetime achievement award. the annual award recognizes an individual whose career has been spent in or around major league baseball, and who has had made significant contributions to the game. baker played 19 seasons in the big leagues and managed the giants for ten years. in 2022, he won the world series as the manager of the houston astros. he's currently in the giants special advisor to baseball operations. baker released a statement today saying, quote, receiving this award is a tremendous honor, well deserved. >> well, this cooler pattern wants to stick around, at least for one more day. and right now,

we still have lots of clouds moving into the bay area. mostly cloudy skies expected overnight with the possibility of maybe some drizzle or borderline light rain that could move in first thing in just in time for the friday morning commute. take a look at the numbers this afternoon. lots of 60s out there, a few low 70s out towards san rafael and santa rosa, but temperatures really not moving around too much for tomorrow. so for your friday morning, lots of clouds, maybe some drizzle or some light rain and then into the afternoon hours. partly cloudy, some gusty winds. we could have winds going up above 25 to 30 miles an hour, and temperatures from the upper 50s to the upper 60s. look at this. now here's the forecast model showing you some rainfall to the north. we'll have to keep an eye on some of this activity that could be clipping portions of the east bay tomorrow afternoon, parts of the north bay as well, toward, toward solano county. and look at this out toward the sierra. they will pick up some snowfall. this was the scene today looking out from sierra tahoe. they're actually closed for the season, but they're going to pick up some snowfall tomorrow in the sierra. could be around 1 to 4in, so nothing major. and snow levels around

6500ft. so a bit unsettled for northern california. as we move into your friday, here's a satellite right now picking up on the cloud cover and a little bit of activity, a little bit of some green showing up on the radar. as you can see up in portions of the north bay. so there's the chance, as you can see with some of this action moving into parts of sonoma county, that we could have a light shower or a few sprinkles out there for this evening. it's also windy in a few spots as we check out concord right now, gusting at 24 miles an hour. oakland airport over 30 miles an hour. we also have some more reports out toward sfo, gusting at 24 miles an hour. so the clouds are moving in this evening. current temperatures. as you can see, santa rosa, 65, san francisco, cool 57 and san jose checking in 63 degrees. we'll start out your friday morning in the gray, so mostly cloudy skies. temperatures will be in the 50s. here's the cool system we are watching. it's moving in from the north. this will also generate those winds tomorrow as well. so some cloud cover in the morning, some gusty winds into the afternoon hours. and here's the forecast model

once again. maybe some drizzle or some light rain, especially near the coast or the coastal hills. tomorrow morning. this is what we'll be watching into tomorrow afternoon. out towards solano county, the inland east bay. there's a chance of a few showers could rapidly develop, move in and move out. so you probably see those big cloud buildups tomorrow afternoon and the weekend. good news. you want to get outside. it will be dry and a bit of a warming trend headed our way, especially by sunday. so some clouds in the morning, gusty winds in the afternoon, hours and temperatures mainly in the 60s. your weekend forecast, as we talked about, we're going to clear out the clouds, especially by sunday, a warming trend that will begin. and it should continue into next week. in fact, by tuesday, the warmest locations in the inland could be back up to 80 degrees. so from cool conditions to warm conditions, it's all happening over the next several days. >> something for everybody. thanks a lot mark, i appreciate it. are changes coming for those who fly southwest when it comes to seating preferences? we'll tell you why the airline is looking at the idea. >> and coming up tonight at six, hundreds of thousands of dollars

worth of stolen items seized by law enforcement, the in-depth investigation that led authorities to uncovering the goods. also, a state senate candidate from the east bay picks up a big time endorsem*nt by governor gavin newsom, says he is now backing the berkeley mayor. these sto

last quarter, the commerce department says the economy grew 1.6% in the first quarter of 2024. that's the slowest pace in nearly two years and well below economists estimates. but the commerce department says the measure of inflation, called the personal consumption index, surged 3.7% in the first quarter. that is an index that's closely watched by the federal reserve. >> so when you have inflation higher than growth, that's a recipe for what's called stagflation. that's what's scaring people. probably shouldn't worry about it too much right now, but i think that was underlying the concern on wall street today. >> mcbride said that the underlying economy remains strong, with low unemployment, rising wages and consumer who are continuing to spend money

despite inflation. well, the dow was down 375 points, a drop of about 1. the nasdaq off by 100 points, the s&p dropping 23 points. shares of meta, the parent company of facebook, were down more than 10% over concerns over whether its big investments in ai will pay off. >> open seating has long been a feature on southwest airlines, but that could change in an interview after reporting weaker than expected revenue, southwest ceo said the airline is looking at new ways to boost revenue and that could include, among other things, charging passengers to select seats ahead of time or different ways of paying to board the plane. earlier, the airline says it has made it hasn't made any decisions, just yet, though it also said that it is not considering charging for checked bags. well, people in the bay area and across the country are running into challenges in finding veterinarians and now a new study suggests the shortage is only getting worse.

>> yeah, it's a problem in both big cities and in rural communities. fox's sunny tsai reports from ventura county. it's common these days to schedule an appointment for your pet and need to wait weeks, if not months, for them to get seen. >> this applies to both general and urgent care workers here at the humane society of ventura county. tell me. they tried to book their appointments to max capacity each day to help alleviate this problem, especially since covid, i've never seen emergency rooms have to turn people away. and in these cases, they don't always have a veterinarian on staff in an emergency room because of shortages, 47 states are facing some sort of veterinarian shortage, and the high cost of vet school doesn't help the case. >> most vets are graduating with an average of about $160,000 in student loans, and then the shortage also goes into the fact that veterinarians, oftentimes, once they graduate, they want to start repaying those loans. >> and so they're going to look for more lucrative jobs in larger cities and things like that. working at municipal shelters, nonprofits, vets are

not going to be nearly as lucrative as a private practice. >> doctor sisk was the only vet at the humane society of ventura county for several years until last fall. >> last fall, the board of directors said, you know what we need to be a bigger part of this solution, so let's hire an additional veterinarian if we can. >> the shelter is also sending workers into the community to offer low cost vaccinations. >> when you talk about barriers to access to veterinary care, you're not just talking about the first thing that comes to mind, which is finance, which is very important. but you're also talking about geography. and so while we are close to some large populations, we're a little bit further from others. >> the humane society also says teaching the community to be a part of the solution by getting their pets spayed and neutered will also help lower the demand for vet services in ojai, california. sunny sky fox news this is ktvu, fox two news at six eight inmates in san francisco county jails are facing charges accused of attacking deputies. >> and now what led to the

environment leading to these attacks is being debated. >> absolute confidence in all of our staff, not just our deputies, but also our professional staff, our medical staff, everyone's in this together to make sure we keep it a safe place. >> the san francisco sheriff says nine deputies were attacked over the past three weeks, and some of them suffered serious injuries. hello again everyone, i'm julie julie haener and i'm alex savage, the san francisco sheriff's association is blaming understaffing and mandatory overtime for those assaults. >> ktvu is crystal bailey joining us live tonight from san francisco after speaking with the sheriff about the union's complaints, crystal. >> well, the union says that these attacks on the deputies are a direct result of mandatory overtime. but sheriff miyamoto says that even though they're only at 73% staffing right now, he doesn't think that's the issue. he says the jails are overpopulated, partially because of an uptick in arrests surrounding drugs. but he says he's
