Linsey davis is outside the manhattan jail with the latest on that story. Good morning. Reporter good morning to you, whit. Investigators still have not determined just how epstein ended up unresponsive inside his jail cell inside the correctional facility behind me. For his part epstein says he doesnt remember. Was it a Suicide Attempt or an assault . An investigation is now under way to determine just what happened inside a new york city jail cell that left Jeffrey Epstein unconscious with marks on his neck. Investigators initially thought the wounds were selfinflicted believing he might have tried to take his own life, but after the 66yearold was revived, he told authorities he couldnt remember what had happened and a fellow inmate, nicholas told investigators he didnt know either because he had headphones on but a lawyer for the former Police Officer accused of murder told our whit johnson a different story. Nick knows what happened. Were not going to talk about it. My purpose is to say definitively nick had nothing to do with hurting anybody in the facility particularly mr. Epstein. Reporter the bureau of prisons is now trying to determine if epstein was assaulted by another inmate or paid someone to beat him up. Epstein is accused of exploiting and abusing dozens of minor girl, some just 14 years old. Hes pleaded not guilty to federal charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy. Last week a judge rejected his request for bail and just this week, Palm Beach County launched a criminal investigation to determine if any of its sheriffs deputies failed to properly monitor epstein while he was on work release 11 years ago. Now, this latest investigation comes after an accusation was made that while he was on work release, epstein allegedly had at least one woman come to his office for a sexual purpose. In the meantime, epsteins attorney is appealing the judges no bail ruling. No word just yet when a decision will be made on that. Linsey davis, thanks. To washington now and new evidence of russias determination to interfere in our election. A bipartisan report from the Senate IntelligenceCommittee Details how russia targeted voting in all 50 states and warns the threat persists today. Our chief justice correspondent Pierre Thomas joins us and this echoes on Robert Muellers testimony. Reporter thats right, george. Good morning. And its not just russia. Intelligence officials fear china, iran and other countries could target the 2020 election and were learning about how pervasive the attack on the 2016 election was. The report says the russians likely attempted to find weaknesses as you said in the voting systems of all 50 states. Probing and scanning the voting systems of at least 21 states. According to the report, the russians looked at the personal data of hundreds of thousands of voters from two states including illinois. The good news is that the u. S. Government and states have improved Election Security but, george, the chilling question is exactly why was russia snooping around those voter systems in 2016 and exactly what are they planning for the future . Thats the big question, what are they doing right now. In the wake of all these warnings, Senate Republican leader Mitch Mcconnell yesterday blocked an attempt to update Election Security. Reporter thats right. Just a day after former special counsel bob mueller issued that stark warning the russians are attacking us as we, quote, sit here, mcconnell blocked it saying democrats were simply playing politics on the heels of muellers testimony. Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer says that the republicans are putting their heads in the sand. So, george, more proof they cant seem to agree on anything here in washington. Not in this environment. Thanks very much. Cecilia. Big issue heading into 2020.

Our chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz is tracking the fallout in washington. Good morning. Reporter good morning. This was a mass arrest that no one in that marine corps battalion at Camp Pendleton will forget. They were all lined up in formation when authorities swept in and one by one pulled out those 16 marines with everyone watching. They were handcuffed and taken into custody.

Earlier this month two marines were charged with transporting migrants for financial gain. The charging documents say a contact in mexico told the marines where to pick up the migrants once they crossed the border into the u. S. This is an embarrassment for the marine corps, especially since other marines from Camp Pendleton had been tasked by the pentagon to help secure the border. George. Certainly is embarrassing.
