Check out the nbc 10 app and look for ways to live stream all the events on your phones or tablets. Unhinged and hellbent. Thats how a political confidante described Pennsylvania Attorney general Kathleen Kane in court today. Deanna durante was in the courtroom when a secret recording from the fbi was played. Reporter Joshua Morrow said getting cath line kane elected was important in his career. He said the two were angry at a former attorney general staffer. They blamed that safer for the leak. Morrow told the jury kane was coming unhinged and, quote, hellbent on getting revenge. In the call, recorded by the fbi, on an unrelated investigation, morrow tells his friend, kathleen called him and has documents she wants him to get to a reporter. The friend advises against morrow doing this. Morrow tells the friend hes okay with doing this, but he wants a plan. That kane is just throwing everything to the wall hoping it will stick. Morrow also painted a picture for the jury telling about a woman becoming increasingly paranoid, telling the jury at one point he was met by kanes driver, ordered into the car and taken to a parking garage and had to give up his cell phone and was checked, he believed, for recording devices. He said that happened more than once. Testimony will resume again in the morning. Deanna durante, nbc 10 news. Drivers and bike riders at odds.

Bicycle backlash, exposing the dangers facing riders around philadelphia. Many of you asked us to investigate if bike riders are breaking the rules, too. Heres the findings. Reporter caught in the act. Blowing through red lights and sometimes nearly causing crashes. Cyclists are supposed to be following the very same rules as drivers. Absolutely. Reporter why are those laws almost never enforced . We dig into the issue that has drivers calling for action. The nbc 10 investigators set up cameras at philly intersections, counting everyone who seems to break the rules. I dont feel like they apply to me. Why wouldnt they apply to you . Reporter and we talked to cycling advocates about why drivers perception may not actually be reality. Do you guys buy the idea that cyclists are breaking the rules more than motorists . No. We do not believe that. George spencer joins us right now. George, this story, this investigation really grew organically out of a different one. Its one of those that originated after our first story, and then with the social media discussions that followed it. Back in may, we did this story, a review of bicycle crashes. We looked at specific intersections and roads and spoke to cyclists about their push to crack down on speeding drivers. But viewer responses, and guys, there were a lot of them, asked us to look at how much the cyclists themselves were breaking the rules. And that is what we have done for tonight. The video tells a lot of this story. George, back in the investigators unit, you guys really put a lot of data behind your reporting. For this report, you guys ran your own survey. Right. Part of it is we didnt just want this to be a story about, look at this cyclist running a red light. We wanted a way to quantify it. We set up our own unscientific survey for this story. Watching five different intersections and five different philly neighborhoods. We counted vehicle by vehicle, hundreds of them, cyclists by cyclists. It allowed us to talk about a Bigger Picture in terms of what drivers tell us they are seeing on the streets of philadelphia. In addition to getting both sides of this, too. Yes. Excellent. George, thank you very much. You can see his investigation bicyclist backlash tonight on nbc 10 right after the olympics. We know what that music means.

Now, take a look at carson wentz. Hes been waiting for the opportunity. Eagles fans, they are anticipating this as well. Carson said he will not be nervous for tonight. I feel very ready. Like i said, it seems like a Long Time Coming mentally. I feel definitely prepared. I feel very good with the playbook, with the protections, all that stuff. Im just really excited and ready to go play. Have fun. If youre not having fun, we find Something Else to do. Take one play at a time. Dont try to make the play if its not there. Be who you are. Youve been successful for a reason. Reporter the main thing is you want to see carson get out there in the second half and move the ball, take command of the huddle. In the first half with the starters, sam bradford will be missing jason peters his left tackle and main receiver jordan matthews. On defense youll be missing Malcolm Jenkins and kendricks.
