A warning now, we are about to play disturbing video that appears to show Sean Diddy Combs in 2016 pushing, kicking, and dragging his thengirlfriend Cassandra Ventura in a hotel hallway. Cnn obtained the video, and we want to repeat here, it is hard to watch, but it seems to support some of venturas allegations. Here is cbss elise preston. Reporter this l. A. Hotel Surveillance Video obtained by cnn seems to show media mogul Sean Diddy Combs running down a hallway, chasing thengirlfriend singer cassie ventura. Combs, wearing a bath towel, then grabs her by the back of the neck, throws her to the ground, and kicks her. He kicks her again, as she lies motionless on the floor, before dragging her back down the hallway. A different camera angle appears to show combs throwing a vase at ventura. The video seems to corroborate some of the allegations detailed in a nowsettled lawsuit filed by ventura back in november, stating that around march 2016, combs became extremely intoxicated and punched her in the face, giving her a black eye, which prompted her to try to leave the hotel room. The lawsuit also accused combs of rape in 2018. In march, authorities raided combs mansions in california and florida as part of a federal investigation being handled by a team that deals with human trafficking. Combs has faced at least five civil lawsuits since november, ranging from Sexual Misconduct to sex trafficking. In december, combs posted on instagram, let me be absolutely clear i did not do any of the awful things being alleged. We see this very graphic video. Does this weaken his credibility . Oh, absolutely. I think he will be trying to settle these civil cases as quickly as he can, frankly, for a very dollar amounts. Reporter we reached out to combs team about the video. They are not commenting. Meanwhile, venturas attorney called it gutwrenching, adding that she showed a lot of courage and fortitude coming forward. Maurice . Maurice okay, elise preston, thank you.

Reporter with School Canceled and no power or water at home, Jacqueline Muncy and her kids headed downtown. We did not know what else to do, so we went to barbecue. Reporter the Violent Storm tore down electrical towers, leaving piles of twisted steel, and millions without power. I was just with a family who doesnt have any water, they dont have any power. They found a place to eat, but they are not sure what their next few days are going to look like. Trying to prepare people for the worst and hoping for the best.

Good evening, mike. Maurice, good evening. The storms that hit texas very hard are on the move. Likely to produce more wind but also significant rain and upping the ante for some flooding. That will now include places like mississippi and alabama, even edging over into georgia. Through tomorrow morning. There are the storms highlighted for you for the rest of the day today, and especially in this area that is highlighted in red, that is the area to keep an eye on. Winds will be a significant factor with these storms, couldnt completely rule out an isolated tornado. Looking ahead, early down the stream to next week, there is that front that comes in, low, sits over the midwest, strong storms for the midwest all the way down into texas, once again, so on monday, really highlighting the Central Plains and on tuesday a large area, maurice, to watch, that is going to include from topeka and fort smith, all the way past chicago and milwaukee. Maurice okay, well be watching. Mike, thank you. To the middle east now, israels military says its troops have recovered the bodies of three israeli hostages from the tunnels beneath gaza. One of them, 22yearold shani louk. The photo of her contorted body in the back of a pickup truck became a symbol of the brutality of the hamas attack on october 7th. Cbss imtiaz tyab has more. Reporter it was during the chaos and horror of hamas october 7th attack on the nova Music Festival that all three hostages were killed. That same day, their remains were taken into gaza. They were celebrating life in the nova Music Festival, and they were murdered by hamas. The Israeli Military have identified them as shani louk, amit bouskila, and itzhak gelerenter. The bodies were recovered in a tunnel on thursday night in an operation by the Israeli Military, who did not specify where in gaza they were found. But over the past week, the fighting has intensified in the north, as israels armed forces battle what theyre calling a resurgent hamas. Starting today, desperatelyneeded aid is now being trucked into the besieged palestinian territory via this u. S. Militarybuilt pier. It works like this alreadyscreened aid is shipped from nearby cyprus, transferred to a floating platform, and then loaded onto trucks. The trucks are eventually moved onto smaller ships that sail to this pier, where the aid is then finally taken to shore. The dramatic intervention by the Biden Administration was triggered by israels decision to sharply restrict supplies from reaching the people of gaza at the very start of this brutal war. Now, no u. S. Soldiers will set foot in gaza, and its up to the u. N. To distribute the aid. The goal is to send up to 150 truckloads a day, but aid agencies say at least 500 are needed to even begin to tackle the massive humanitarian crisis unfolding across gaza. Maurice . Maurice massive is right. Imtiaz tyab in tel aviv tonight, thank you. Today, the man who bludgeoned Nancy Pelosis husband with a hammer after breaking into their San Francisco home got a 30year prison sentence. You see david depape in this Police Body Camera video attacking paul pelosi, who suffered a Skull Fracture and says he still has nerve damage in his hand. His wife was House Speaker at the time of the attack in 2022. And depape admits he had planned to take her hostage, but she was not home. In a victim impact statement, she wrote, the blood is impossible to ignore. Our home remains a heartbreaking crime scene. There is mounting pressure tonight on Supreme Court Justice Samuel alito after a report that a symbol used by Election Deniers was on display at his home 11 days after the january 6th attack. Cbss Scott Macfarlane on how alito is responding. Reporter there are calls tonight for Justice Samuel alito to recuse himself from any cases involving the 2020 election after the New York Times published this photo of an upside down American Flag flying outside alitos home in the days after the January 6th Assault on the u. S. Capitol. The flag, upside down, became a symbol of the Stop The Steal movement used by rioters and Election Deniers after the 2020 vote. This is a member of the Supreme Court, you know, people around the world are looking to them to be unbiased. Reporter in a statement, alito told the New York Times, i had no involvement whatsoever in the flying of the flag. It was briefly placed by mrs. Alito in response to a neighbors use of objectionable and personally insulting language on yard signs. Neighbors told the paper alitos wife was involved in a dispute with another family, who had put an antitrump sign on their lawn. At the time, the high court was considering 2020 election challenges, and now is weighing critical cases involving donald trump, including whether the former president is immune from prosecution for efforts to subvert the election. Alito, who has recently argued free speech is under attack. Troubled waters are slamming against some of our most fundamental principles. Reporter was scrutinized last year when a report showed he had gone on a luxury fishing trip to alaska, paid by two republican donors, one of whom had cases before the court. Alito said they never discussed business. Alitos fellow justice, clarence thomas, also faced scrutiny after who it was revealed his wife, ginni, sent Text Messages to former white house Chief Of Staff mark meadows, challenging the 2020 election results. The Supreme Court code of conduct says justices should not be swayed by partisan interests and should remain dignified and respectful. Maurice . Maurice Scott Macfarlane at the Supreme Court, thank you. Now to Norah Odonnells historic interview with pope francis on this sundays 60 minutes. It is the First Time Ever an american Broadcast Journalist has had such a long conversation with any pope. In it, francis addresses criticism he has faced for trying to make the church more inclusive. Norah there are conservative bishops in the United States that oppose your new efforts to revisit teachings and traditions. How do you address their criticism . Interpreter you used an adjective, conservative. That is, conservative is one who clings to something. And does not want to see beyond that. It is a suicidal attitude. Because one thing is to take tradition into account, to consider situations from the past, but quite another is to be closed up inside a dogmatic box. A bishop must be a shepherd, and the shepherd must be in the middle of his herd. Right in there with his flock. Be it pretty, ugly, big, small, good or bad. Thats where the pastor needs to be. And try to help the people grow. We cannot divide the world into conservatives or nonconservatives. Those are ideological divisions that are no good at all. Maurice and you can watch norahs interview with pope francis this sunday on 60 minutes and then a onehour primetime special on monday, right here on cbs. It is mustsee. On wall street, a new milestone today, the dow closed above 40,000 for the very first time, gaining 134 points on the day. The dow has now posted five straight winning weeks.
