Its the nightmare scenario for drivers, criminals targeting you while youre in your car. But there are ways to protect yourself.

Reporter his friend jen lovingly praises bobby as her guardian angel, saying i love him so much for everything he did for me and sean that night. Its unfortunate that this case ended like this. Reporter yet veteran detectives like joe jackalone say while his actions were courageous, we can all learn lessons from the tragic outcome. Dying for property is never the way to go. Let it go and replace it. Reporter after 20 years with the nypd joe says hes learned most of us dont realize how vulnerable we are while approaching our cars. Whether the crooks are after our wallets or the car itself. Almost 700,000 cars were stolen in 2013. Thats roughly one car every 45 seconds. Anybody could be hiding from you. Reporter joe agreed to show us ways to be smart and stay alert. What mistakes do people make . Just right now you could have both hands full. You dont have a way thats bad . You dont have a way to defend yourself if you had to. At least if you had one hand available or at the least your keys in your other hand ready to enter your car. Im always fumbling for my keys. Which is bad, especially at nighttime, dark area youre not paying attention to whats going on behind you and someone can easily attack you. Reporter your cell phone might be your biggest enemy. The phone is probably going to be the biggest distraction that people have. And its probably the number one reason why people become victims of crimes. Reporter joe warns someone with their eyes on their phone might get between a car jacker and their target. As the technology has gotten better, cars are less likely to be stolen. Especially highend cars. And those are the ones thieves are targeting. If they cant steal one thats sitting in a parking lot theyre going to take it when its running. Thats the problem. There is a big market for highend cars . Sure especially overseas. Even if they keep it here they go to chop shops because the parts are worth more than the car itself. Reporter grand theft auto can have deadly consequences. Dustin freeland was murdered in front of his wife in a parking lot of the short hills mall in new jersey just days before christmas 2013. Targeted, say investigators, because he was driving a range rover. Surveillance tape revealing freedlands alleged killers may have scouted the mall, hunting for the right car and the right victim. They were looking for a specific target a car that they wanted. So this place, it probably was a range recoverier. Reporter yuck see the suspects dark suv three days before carjacking cruising the malls parking lot. Watch as it follows this white range rover right past the entrance and then, on the night dustin freedland was killed notice that same suv lurking in the lot before driving to the freedlands car. Minutes later, that suv speeding off with the freedlands stole be range rover behind it. This was a group of guys not just one individual. You have to be mindful of, theyre coming in threes and fours. Reporter its not just people with snazzy cars at risk. Turns out the most stolen cars are not luxury vehicles. Number one, the practical honda accord. Then the humble civic. Followed by chevys and fords fullsized pickups. No matter how fancy your ride you can protect yourself by thinking the safest place to park. Try to find a spot closest to the doors. Look for where theres a lot of light. Theres spots on our right, on our left. If possible what they call combat parking. Whats that . Combat parking, you see cars here, they back into the spot. So its difficult, if youre an american, to drive backwards if you had to. Reporter being aware of surroundings might not be enough. Last week this woman, increase sin increase sin was robbed in arlington while at the driveup. The carjacker forced her into her own trunk. After he pulled out his gun he told me to get in the trunk. Robbed at the wells fargo atm, put in the vehicle. Reporter her attack captured on surveillance tape. Police say the suspect right there, looking directly at this Security Camera drove off. Driving around for several hours with kristin trapped in the trunk. I thought maybe ill have a chance of getting out of here. I found the unlock for the trunk on the inside. I popped it up. Luckily because of things that happen like this in the past, manufacturers have made it easier for a person to get out of the trunk. Years ago the cars, when you got into a trunk, there was no way of getting out. Now theres levers inside. If you get stuck inside, all you have to do is move it. It glows in the dark. Reporter kristin managed to open her trunk and escape. Joe says the next time you head to the atm, dont be paranoid just be prepared. Have your atm card ready, take it out ahead of time. Pull up as close as you can to the atm machine. Because this also prevents somebody from being able to shied in between you. Put your card in ready to go. Use your rearview mirror. Make sure nobodys walking up to you. Reporter another tip, always leave your car in drive. Keep your foot on the brake. Youre getting ready to get the money . Its coming. Take the money. Put it on the side. Now heres what youre most vulnerable. The guy waiting for you is knowing youre ready to go. You still have to retrieve your atm card its still in the machine. Foot off the gas make sure you dont hit anybody whos walking, and you are gone. Reporter once youre on the road, remember carjacking is a crime of opportunity and criminals sometimes create those opportunities in order to grab your car with its engine on. If youre parked eded along the road inventive crooks have been known to use a trick using a 20 dollar bill on your windshield. Some person sit in their car theyre not looking up. They start their car, theyre doing their thing, putting their seat belt on. They go, whats that . That looks like money. So they go, all right. Oh, geez, money. Now the cars running, mind you. They go like this. They go get the money off the windshield weiner. By the time it takes them to do that, theyre already inside your car driving away. Thats incredible. What most people try to do is get in the way, thats how you get run over. Reporter which goes to show being a safe driver involves more than just buckling up. Up next new England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady responding to accusations of cheating in the championship. Later on nightline, Prince Andrew caught up in an alleged royal sex scandal.

Fight back with relief so smooth. Its fast. Tums smoothies starts dissolving the instant it touches your tongue. And neutralizes stomach acid at the source. Tum, tum tum tum. Smoothies only from tums. Did they or didnt they . Its the alleged cheating scandal launching a thousand headlines. Deflategate. Tonight the new England Patriots are fighting back against accusations of unsportsmanlike conduct. Did they deflate footballs during their championship game to gain a strategic advantage . With their coach coming under fire again, heres abcs ryan smith. Reporter its the latest nfl scandal and its dominating the airwaves. Deflategate. Deflategate. Deflategate. Reporter from morning shows to talk radio, instead of talking about the super bowl all eyes are on the ball. This ball. And the claim that the patriots used underinflated footballs last weekend to help them win a crucial game. Were going to begin with that breaking news overnight. The socalled deflategate. Nfl sources revealing to espn that the patriots did use underinflated footballs. Reporter sources telling our Sister Network espn this is the play that led to the discovery of what is being dubbed deflategate. This secondquarter play has led to many questioning the integrity of the afc champs. Dqwell jackson, a linebacker for the colts, intercepted a pass by tom brady and allegedly felt the ball was lighter than normal. But it turned out it wasnt just one ball in question. They probably dont know how they became underinflated but the fact that they were 11 out of the 12 balls discovered to be underinflated was certainly a big disappointment. Reporter nfl sources telling our Sister Network espn 11 of the 12 balls the team used to beat the Indianapolis Colts were inflated significantly below league requirements. And at the start of the third quarter, referees had the patriots game balls reinflated to regulation size. But if they were in fact affecting the game was it too late . By this time the patriots were already winning by 10 points. The patriots were going to win that football game. They had the colts number. And were the better football team. I dont believe the conditions of the footballs affected the outcome of that game whatsoever. Reporter but former nfl quarterback mark brunell says there are significant advantages to using a deflated ball. It really comes down to the grip of the football. With a deflated football its easier to dig your fingers into the football. Its easier to dig your hand into the football and simply hold on to it. Reporter sources revealing to espn the balls were underinflated two pounds per square inch less than league standards, making them easier to grasp and catch. So what about the colts player who says i caught this during an interception, i ran with it, and i noticed something was wrong with the ball . I think it would be hard to do. Maybe someone with that much strength and grip on the ball theres a possibility. But the difference is minimal. I would find it hard to believe that the officials in measuring the footballs measured them incorrectly. Reporter scott green, a recently retired nfl referee, explains to us the process before the game. Each team will bring 12 balls and the home team is to provide some additional balls in case of bad weather. All of those balls are checked in the locker room ten minutes before the game. The ball boys pick them up. But during the game there is no one monitoring the balls. Reporter once the balls are handed off to the ball boys which are hired by the teams, not the league thats where some say the problem allegedly began. How the ball boys could manipulate the balls, you know theyre pretty busy too, but presumably something in this situation did occur. Reporter but whoever did this, for scott, this was a first in his 23 years. I cant recall any time in my career where we had the balls brought into the locker ram and rechecked all the balls. Reporter both brady and belichick responding to the allegations on local radio shows. I think ive heard it all at this point. Its ridiculous. Obviously whatever we need to do to cooperate with them well do. So youre not deflating footballs . Cant imagine. Reporter in 2007 the nfl fined him for videotaping the jets sideline defensive signals during a game so that they could have an advantage. While the patriots were fined 250,000 for spying belichick was ordered to pay 500,000 for his role in the scandal. Its over. And were moving on. Its in the past. Were done with it. Reporter turns out they are far from done with controversy. The patriots are back again under scrutiny. And this time the public and their peers are divided. Ex49ers quarterback now football analyst, steve young, doesnt feel this is a big deal. This is one of those dumb things that really doesnt matter. Bill belichick obviously looks for every angle. He does it from game to game. He does a great job finding out weaknesses and exploiting them. Reporter many feel belichick isnt playing fair. High School Coaches across the country will now have to explain to their players why a team that many feel have cheated will get a chance to play in the super bowl. Whoever made the decision to do that, its taking away from what they did on the field and its kind of become a distraction. Reporter just yesterday the nfl posted this picture on their instagram, a bunch of deflated super bowl footballs. What some critics are saying is symbolic of deflated expectations of an entire nation. For nightline, im ryan smith in foxborough, massachusetts. Up next, the alleged second Trafficking Victim making bombshell accusations against Prince Andrew. And what the royal family is saying about it. Our eyes they have a 200degree range of sight.

Scandalous new details emerging tonight from a former prostitute who claims she was just 17 when she allegedly had sexual relations with prince an andrew andrew. Reporter tonight a royal mess. Unfolding far from the goldtrimmed gates and courtyards of Buckingham Palace in the drab courtrooms of florida. Tonight, this woman claiming she was trafficked as a teen going toe to toe with some of the worlds most powerful men. In a justposted 220page court filing Virginia Roberts, seen here when she was 17 with Prince Andrew andrew, alleges in an affidavit she engaged in sexual activities with the queens middle son. Fergie fergies exhusband on three occasions. She knew him as andy she says. She says he correctly guessed her age when they met. Prince andrew guessed 17. The age of consent in the uk is 16. She claims to have been prostituted out to andrew by jeffrey epstein, a billionaire convicted in 2008 of soliciting a minor for prostitution. She claims epstein paid her 15,000 to be with the prince. And before that big night in 2001, epstein allegedly emphasized, whatever Prince Andrew wanted, i was to make sure he got, she says. Buckingham palace has repeatedly denied Prince Andrew had any sexual contact with her saying tonight it has nothing further to add from its earlier comments strenuously denying the allegations. The palace dont usually comment on matters of their private life. In this case they didnt just hide behind a no comment. If they did it would look bad. Reporter but the Court Findings get specific. The Public Relations policemen for the people named in the affidavit, shes talking about number of times, shes talking about places shes saying there were other people there. And seeing that in the affidavit makes it that much more concrete. Reporter but Sarah Ferguson aka fergie shes come to Prince Andrews defense. Fergie told reporters, the york family are a tight unit. He is the greatest man there is. This picture of a 15yearold Virginia Roberts was included in the filing. She claims she was also trafficked to many other powerful men. One of them including lawyer Alan Dershowitz who she alleges she had sex with on six occasions. Dershowitz denied the allegations to me when they originally surfaced last month. Youre saying at no time was it possible for you to have been alone with this young woman and have had sex with her . Absolutely. The story is completely and totally made up. Reporter he even filed a motion to have her case thrown out. In the face of dur show withess denials, roberts claims under oath that hes lying by denying he had sex with me. Tonight Alan Dershowitz doubling down. Every single word in her affidavit about me is a deliberate and categorical lie. I dont know her. I was never with her. I never touched her. Reporter der show withes would later become the lawyer for jeffrey epstein, the approximately fair roberts says trafficked her to Prince Andrew and dershowitz. And it was dershowitz among others who negotiated epsteins plea deal shortly after epsteins release from jail. He was visited in new york by Prince Andrew. Thats them strolling in central park. It wasnt long after that epstein allegedly helped Sarah Ferguson pay off some debts. In 1992 fergie and Prince Andrew split. Queen elizabeth called it amicus reporter matt gutman in miami.
