Against the backdrop of the war in gaza, the bodies of iranian president Ebrahim Raisi and irans foreign minister were recovered following an hours long search. A helicopter carrying those two key leaders, along with six others, crashed in a mountainous area near irans northern border. Welcome everyone to the for this afternoon. Im alex savage and im heather holmes. Experts saying this deadly crash could not have come at a worse time with increased tensions there in the middle east. We want to bring in now our jana katsuyama, whos been monitoring the situation and also has some bay area reaction. Yes, and i spoke to some local expats who had frankly been supportive of the opposition. And they say that they are relieved that there will be a new election. Irans ayatollah, the Supreme Leader, named the Vice President as interim president today. I spoke with several bay area scholars who say this is a big blow to the regime losing two of its top leaders, president raisi and the hardline foreign minister. Video released by Iranian State media shows search crews recovering the bodies of irans president Ebrahim Raisi, the foreign minister and others killed in sundays Helicopter Crash in irans East Azerbaijan province. The crash happened in dense fog, a shock to irans regime. Raisi was the 63 year old protege of irans Supreme Leader, the ayatollah ali khamenei. He was considered to be a successor, potential successor to the Supreme Leader, San FranciscoState University professor mahmood monshipour says raisi was a right wing leader known for his hardline crackdowns on iranian opponents. His reputation was seriously damaged because of the 2022 protests. After the killing of a young girl by the name of mahsa amini, monshipour said raisi had low support among the iranian people. We are looking at. I mean, 14, 15 million population of tehran, only, 7 to 8 of them participated in the parliamentary election, which, indicates how badly, the regime is performing. The United NationsSecurity Council held a moment of silence monday, also killed in the crash. Irans foreign minister hossein amirabdollahian. San Francisco State professor Stephen Zunes met him during a 2019 visit to iran, had combined this very fundamentalist, hardcore view of shia islam with a very, very strong, nationalist sense about iran that he thought it was better for iran to go alone, even if it meant suffering international sanctions. Some opponents of the regime are relieved by the death of those two hardliners. A new election has been scheduled for june 28th, but scholars say the u. S. Will likely see little change in iran u. S. Relations the most powerful centers of the power in iran, rest with the Supreme Leader and revolutionary guard, so not much will be, should be anticipated to change. And of course, iran plays a big role in the middle east with hamas and hezbollah. But professor monshipour says it is quite likely that the next president will continue on irans current policies and path. But certainly in this kind of situation, its hard to know what is going to happen. So really, the next 50 days are going to be critical. Yeah, a lot to keep an eye on. Has there been any reaction from the white house to the deaths of these two key leaders in iran . Well, obviously, iran and the us, not exactly. Friends. There was an official expression of condolences. But then the us also said that the us supports the iranian people and their pursuit of human rights. So its a little bit of a two sided coin with that. Yeah. And obviously you talked with experts in this field, but what about regular folks, citizens who are here in the bay area . How are they reacting to this . Well, you know, frankly, a lot of the people who came to the us during the shah era and the revolution are not friendly with the regime. And so many of them said they frankly felt a lot of relief. There is going to be tonight at 6 00 in emeryvilles marina park, a gathering of some of those people to, i guess you might say, celebrate or at least express their hopes for a Brighter Future for iran at this point. All right. Jana katsuyama appreciate it. Thank you. The International Criminal court is seeking to arrest israeli and hamas leaders and charged them with war crimes. President biden denounced the courts announcement today as outrageous. The icc says its looking into arrest warrants for israeli Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu, along with three senior hamas leaders. The prosecutor cites murder, rape and torture by hamas leaders as reasons for their arrests. He also says his office has evidence against netanyahu and his defense minister, suggesting theyve committed crimes against humanity during the seven month long war in gaza. Israel, like all states, has the right to defend its population. It has every right to ensure the return of hostages that have been criminally and callously taken those rights, however, do not absolve israel of its obligations to comply with International Humanitarian law, intentionally causing death, starvation, injury and suffering to the civilian population. A panel of three judges will now determine whether to actually issue those arrest warrants. Netanyahu calls the charges a disgrace, says this is exactly what the new antisemitism looks like. It is moved from the campuses in the west to the court in the hague. What a shame. Hamas also denounced the icc prosecutors request to seek the arrest of its leaders. Dozens of countries, including the u. S. And israel, dont accept the courts jurisdiction over war crimes. So even if the warrants are issued, the accused do not face immediate risk of prosecution to san jose this afternoon and within the last hour, some new information that we learned about the man who allegedly fired a gun in the middle of a neighborhood and was shot by police. Our south bay reporter jesse gary live now at Police Headquarters with the very latest, including that updated information. Jesse heather, good afternoon to you. And the police chief filled in a lot of the gaps surrounding yesterdays incident in East San Jose, as well as identifying the man responsible for the actions of his own and of the police. Lets go ahead. Take a look at our video. They identified him as 41 year old san jose resident ricardo villareal. Now, police say he has a lengthy criminal history, including assaulting a Police Officer with a weapon. Unfortunately, thats a frequent occurrence. We often find felons in possession of firearms. That was the situation 17 days ago, and so thats part of what we were trying to figure out. Its part of what were trying to convene in a group of people together to figure out why, in san jose, we are seeing this uptick in violence directed, gun violence, directed at our Police Officers. Ive been doing this a very long time. Ive never seen us san jose Police Officers take so much gunfire in such a short period of time. Investigators say this video shows villareal exiting a van around 4 00 sunday afternoon and shooting near the k and k apartments in the 2700 block of colmar drive thats near story road in East San Jose. Responding officers returned fire. Villarreal then ran and was cornered by more officers in a different area of the apartment complex. Three officers fired shots and ultimately dropped him. This apartment complex was filled with people enjoying a warm sunday evening. Families, friends and children were safe one minute and the next in grave danger. What they did next was the one thing they knew would stop this nightmare and make their family safe again. They called san jose Police Officers for help. We cannot allow attempts of killing of our officers to become normalized, expected or tolerated. Police say they recovered a loaded, unregistered gun at the scene. The suspect, villareal, reported in Critical Condition at a South Bay Hospital cell phone video from another bystander shows villareal collapsed on the ground in the alleyway behind the apartment complex. Now, this marks the third time just this year that a san jose Police Officer or officers have been targeted for gunfire. That happened just twice in all of last year. So the chief is trying to understand why thats happening, additionally, the chief says the department is going to work with the atf to try to track that weapon that was recovered at the scene. They said they checked the serial number, but its not showing up anywhere. So now theyre going to work with the atf to try to check, check the weapon. Heather theyre outlining a really dangerous situation. Jesse, do we know if the suspect had any connection to that neighborhood . What brought him to that area in the first place . Investigators say that he lives in san jose, and that he may have known some people at that apartment complex. Now, exactly what brought him there and why he started shooting indiscriminately is still a mystery. But they believe that he knew some people at the apartment complex, but we dont know what precipitated him to open fire. And so theyre saying that he wasnt shooting at anybody in particular. But then once officers arrived, thats when he started targeting police. Heather. All right. Our jesse gary reporting live for us this afternoon there in san jose jesse. Thank you. All right.

Thats when david depape was sentenced to 30 years in prison for breaking into the former house speakers home and attacking her husband, paul pelosi, with a hammer. But over the weekend, judge Jacqueline Scott corley admitted that she had failed to give the defendant a pap a chance to make a statement during sentencing, which is required during federal trials. So she has decided to reopen the hearing to allow depape to speak. And that hearing is set for next week, next tuesday, may 28th. All right. Joining us now to talk more about the implications of this redo on the sentencing. Is our legal analyst michael cardoza. Michael help to put this in some context here. How how significant an error is this by judge callie, if youre asking if it goes up on appeal, would they reverse this conviction . No, no, not on that ground. Okay. Not a chance on this ground. But talk about an oops, a national oops. Yeah. Now im telling you, mistakes happen in courtrooms all the time. Judges make them lawyers. Make them Court Reporters clerks. But this one was a national big one. I mean, you hope not to make the mistakes in a forum like that. She did, but she immediately the judge corrected it and said, lets bring them back to allow him to speak. Okay. So explain why a defendant is afforded this opportunity in federal trials. Well, basically they want to hear from the defendant because part of the sentencing thinking is are you contrite about what you did . Do you want to apologize . What would you like to say in this case . We all know the pope is a bit mentally off, so im sure his attorneys are thinking, my lord, if he does talk, can we control him . Whats he going to say . Thats a decision that the pope and his attorneys have to make, whether hes going to apologize. But if he apologize sizes for it, its going to be interesting to see what the judge does. Does she then reduce the 30 years by a couple . I think that would kick up a dust storm. Yeah, because one of the things she cited at sentencing was his lack of remorse. Exactly. And thats why i say thats why they let the convicted talk to the court to say, look, ive looked at what ive done. If they feel this way and im really sorry for what i did, ive learned basically my lesson in this case, she didnt afford him that opportunity. What i found interesting was right after the sentencing hearing and apparently the attorney generals, the government woke up to it and said, oh my god, she forgot to do this. We better. And they rushed into court and said, you got to redo this. The defense objected and said, no, no, no. Yeah. They found appeal exactly right. So no, this is an appeal issue. We want to go there, not here. Yeah. So i mean, but you dont think that this gives the defense some sort of an opening to, to be able to ask for a more lenient sentence when its all said and done. Listen, as a defense attorney. Yeah okay. You know, you try and drive a truck through that opening. Go look, hes remorseful. Assuming again, if he can express that remorse. Exactly. Right. Yeah. So they will then ask. All right. Lets reduce that a little bit because he has i think the defense i know the defense asked for 14 right. The government asked for 40. And the judge semicomplete revised it. A lot of people look at this and say, well, if it wasnt pelosi he wouldnt have got that much time. I get that in a certain level. But remember, she represents us. Shes our government. So its not her and her husband being attacked. Its really the government being attacked. Yeah, right. And thats why she hammered him basically. Now youre going for 30. Yeah. Okay, michael, back to this idea though. Do we even know if depape wants to speak and then you as a criminal defense attorney, do you sometimes advise your client not to not to speak . Well, i dont know enough about him. I know enough, but not enough that he can be eloquent enough or be concise enough to express remorse because he is a loose cannon. I mean, youve got this guy that did this crime for all sorts of crazy reasons. And by the way, the government is sending a message to people like this going, hey, you even think about doing this, expressing your ideology. Were going to hammer you if you get caught. And we conviction. So, michael, youre saying if you have a client that is in this similar situation, i guess my question is, would you advise them to speak and to take that opportunity . I would advise him he should speak. And if i felt he was remorseful, i would nudge him along that path. But if i thought that theres no way he can keep it together and its only going to become worse, then i tell him, no, but thats before. Now whats he got to lose . Shes not going to up the 30, so i probably would tell him, go ahead, have at it. Might as well go for it no matter what. It would be something if we if we redo the sentencing hearing and he gets his chance to speak and he declines. Right, right. Well, that would be interesting. And it could it could happen. So you dont know. But would i tell him in this case. Yeah. I say might as well speak. Shes given you 30. Shes not going to give you more. Right. Exactly what about though for the upcoming state trial . I dont get that at all. But but i mean, whether he speaks or whether he doesnt, nothing thats happened in this federal trial will impact that. Well they could use his statement. Remember, its in public. The District Attorneys Office will have it. When i say i dont understand it, heres the guy that was convicted federally. Hes gotten 30 years and youve got the local government and the city for their reasons. Im sure they have a good one, but im thinking as a citizen, wait a minute, were talking about million bucks spend on the next trial. Why are we doing this . Hes getting 30. What more are you going to get from him . Attempted murder. Seven to life. Burglary is, what, 3 or 4 . So im not sure i understand, but im sure San Francisco das office has a good reason for doing it. I just dont know what it is. I seriously consider going just collapse this case. Hes got enough time. Yeah. All right. Legal analyst michael cardoza. Okay. Really appreciate you coming in to break it all down for us. Thanks, mike. Thanks for doing it. All right. Take care. Okay. It is monday. Starting off the workweek with some beautiful weather out there. Lots of blue skies and warm temperatures. Want to turn things over now to our meteorologist rosemary oroczo for a look at what lies ahead for the rest of the week. Rosemary. Yes, the warm up will continue as we get into tuesday. Heather. Alex, good afternoon to all of you. We are looking at pretty blue sky over the golden gate bridge. A little bit of a breeze out there. Temperatures warmer compared to yesterday as expected, and that northwest flow helping to keep the fog away. At least for now. We do expect to have just patches of fog along the coastline and inside the bay during the late night hours, Early Morning hours, and thats going to be about it right now. Fairfield calm conditions a northwest breeze in oakland at 14mph. Napa reporting a southerly breeze at 16. Tem
