02:26What the pandemic may have done to your brain, even if you didn't have COVID.
02:34From ABC News World Headquarters in New York, this is World News Tonight with David Muir.
02:42Good evening, and it's great to have you with us here on a Tuesday night.
02:44We begin tonight with two lives lost.
02:46We learned Ozzy Osbourne has died, and we also have new reporting just in tonight on Cosby Show actor Malcolm Jamal Warner.
02:53Now we learn both he and his eight-year-old daughter were struggling in that current, what authorities tried to do.
02:59But we are going to begin tonight with the tributes pouring in at this hour for music icon Ozzy Osbourne,
03:03lead singer of Black Sabbath, known as the godfather of heavy metal.
03:07Later showing another side, a more personal one, on the MTV reality show The Osbournes.
03:12Ozzy Osbourne passing away with his family, his loved ones surrounding him, just weeks after his farewell concert.
03:18ABC's Trevor Rolt leading us off tonight.
03:20As he lost his mind
03:24As founder and lead singer of the legendary band Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne was an architect of heavy metal.
03:32Fronting hits like Iron Man and War Pigs.
03:35I lie down!
03:38Black Sabbath's stage shows were notorious, with Osbourne dubbed the Prince of Darkness,
03:43infamous for his drug use, once biting the head off a bat on stage.
03:48Crazy!
03:50But that's how it goes
03:52After Sabbath, he went solo, earning 15 platinum albums, with hits like Crazy Train and Mama, I'm Coming Home.
04:00Mama, I'm Coming Home
04:02And then in 2002, the MTV reality show The Osbournes.
04:10I love you all. I love you more than life is so.
04:14Bringing a softer side of the Prince of Darkness, his wife Sharon, and his chaotic but loving family, to a whole new audience.
04:23Born John Michael Osbourne in 1948 in Birmingham, England, his life and career were plagued by drug problems and later health problems.
04:31He and his wife Sharon sitting down with our Robin Roberts after his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2020.
04:38I just can't wait to get well and I have to go on the road again.
04:42That's what's killing me.
04:43I need you, you know. That's my drug today.
04:49And Ozzy did get back on the road. Reuniting with his Black Sabbath bandmates in his hometown of Birmingham just two weeks ago.
04:57Millions tuning into the live stream of what would be his final performance.
05:03And David, that final concert raised more than $190 million for charity.
05:07The Osbourne family says they were with Ozzy as he passed and he was surrounded by love.
05:12David, just a couple of weeks after that final concert.
05:14Trevor, thank you.
05:16Now to dramatic new details at this hour on the terrible accident that took the life of Cosby show actor Malcolm Jamal Warner.
05:22Made famous, of course, playing Theo Huxtable.
05:24Tonight, we have now learned he and his eight-year-old daughter were both struggling in those strong currents.
05:29Volunteers frantically trying to save them.
05:31And authorities now say they tried CPR on the actor for 45 minutes.
05:35Victoria Kendo on the scene in Costa Rica.
05:38Tonight, as fans mourn the tragic death of Cosby show star Malcolm Jamal Warner,
05:43we're learning about the desperate efforts to try to rescue the actor and his daughter from a rip current off Costa Rica.
05:49What did you see?
05:50What did you see?
05:51This officer telling us on Sunday, Warner was swimming with his eight-year-old when surfers spotted them struggling and dove in to help.
05:59One surfer using his board to bring the little girls safely to shore.
06:03But volunteer lifeguards had to pull Warner and another surfer from the ocean.
06:07Both surfers survived, but Warner showed no vital signs after minutes of CPR.
06:12What happened to his daughter?
06:14What happened to his daughter?
06:16She was safe, but very scared, police told me.
06:20The 54-year-old was declared dead at the scene.
06:23An autopsy confirming the cause was accidental drowning.
06:26Playa Grande is known as one of the most dangerous beaches in Costa Rica.
06:30There are signs like this at the entrance, even in English.
06:33Look at the top.
06:34Rip currents here all year.
06:36High risk for drowning.
06:38Just one look at her.
06:39Over the years, Warner chose to keep his family life private, but he posted a few cherished moments with his daughter.
06:46This is my daughter's birthday.
06:48In this recent video, wearing a flower she gave him.
06:51Just wanted to remind you, as I remind myself, that no matter what's going on, there's always a reason to smile.
07:02Millions of Americans tuned in to The Cosby Show every week and watched Theo Huxtable grow up.
07:07I believe in staying close to my family.
07:10One for the money.
07:12Tonight, co-star Raven Simone sending love to Warner's family with this parting message to her co-star.
07:18I love you, and I know you're watching over all of us now.
07:23Bye, Malcolm.
07:24And David, lifeguards here at the beach tell me they performed CPR on Warner for 45 minutes, but it was just too late.
07:33David.
07:33Victor Akendo tonight.
07:34Victor, thank you.
07:35Back here in the U.S. to the dangerous, life-threatening heat.
07:38More than 80 million Americans on alert at this hour.
07:40The middle of the country right now.
07:42And then this is all moving into the northeast.
07:44New York City will feel well above 100.
07:46Let's get right to Chief Meteorologist Ginger Zee tracking it all for us again tonight.
07:50Hi, Ginger.
07:50Hi, David.
07:52It's almost refreshing tonight here in New York, but by Friday, it will be that air you have to wear.
07:58And that's what they're feeling along the Mississippi River, where those extreme heat warnings are in place.
08:02Through tomorrow afternoon, you can see some of the numbers, like 110 Memphis and Jackson, down to New Orleans, those warnings, and back up to St. Louis.
08:10Heat advisory for Chicago, they will see likely the hottest of the season, or to at least tie it with the feels like at 106.
08:17New York, that 103 on Friday, Washington, D.C., 104.
08:20And we're watching tonight, David, some damaging wind threats in the northern plains into Minnesota, that arrowhead there, and a flood watch as well with Duluth.
08:28David?
08:29Really appreciate it, Ginger.
08:30We'll see you first thing in the morning on GMA.
08:31In the meantime, we turn to the new scare on the runway, a Delta flight taking off for Atlanta as another passenger plane was landing on the same runway.
08:40Authorities say the two passenger jets just 200 feet apart on the Mexico City runway.
08:44That Delta 737 with 150 people on board going to Atlanta, reaching about 60 miles an hour, then slamming on the brakes.
08:51The pilot saw an Aeromexico jet right overhead coming into land on the same runway.
08:56A terrifying close call on one of the busiest runways in Latin America is under investigation tonight after two passenger jets were just 200 feet from each other.
09:08A Delta 737 with 150 people on board bound for Atlanta was cleared for takeoff and picking up speed down the runway at Mexico City International Airport.
09:18At the same time, air traffic control also cleared an Aeromexico jet to land on the same runway.
09:24The Delta pilots, at this point reaching about 60 miles per hour, saw that aircraft flying right over them as it came in for landing and slammed on its brakes, just 200 feet apart, aborting takeoff and avoiding what would have been a catastrophe.
09:39Air traffic control audio capturing the stunning reaction.
09:43I'm right here.
09:44We are holding on the runway.
09:46Wow.
09:48Increíble.
09:48But we don't know if the controller told the Aeromexico aircraft to land on the left-hand and not the right-hand runway where the Delta jet was.
09:56It's unclear if the pilots of the Aeromexico jet saw the outbound Delta plane.
10:01It's the second no near miss for Delta in the last week.
10:04Friday, a Delta regional jet coming in for landing at Minot International Airport in North Dakota made a hard turn after spotting a B-52 bomber.
10:13The Air Force, saying that the military jet seen here flying over a state fair with its location turned off, was never told about an inbound commercial jet by Minot's air traffic control, which the FAA says is run by a private company.
10:28And, David, back to that flight from Mexico City to Atlanta.
10:33Aeromexico says it is working with authorities and investigating.
10:37David.
10:37Gio Benitez back with us tonight.
10:39Next tonight, as the White House tries to distance itself from the Jeffrey Epstein case, we now learn the Justice Department is planning to speak with Epstein's former companion, Ghislaine Maxwell.
10:49And what President Trump is now saying tonight about this meeting.
10:52Mary Bruce at the White House.
10:53Tonight, as the White House struggles to turn the page from the Epstein investigation, the Justice Department announcing they will speak with Jeffrey Epstein's former companion, Ghislaine Maxwell, who's now serving a 20-year prison sentence for trafficking underage girls to the sex offender.
11:09Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who until recently was President Trump's personal attorney, says he plans to meet with Maxwell soon, saying if Ghislaine Maxwell has information about anyone who committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.
11:27For years, Trump socialized with Epstein and Maxwell and was asked about her when she was arrested in 2020.
11:33Do you feel that she's going to turn in powerful men? How do you see that working out?
11:37I don't know. I haven't really been following it too much.
11:39I just wish her well, frankly.
11:41In an interview with Axios shortly after, he doubled down.
11:44Mr. President, Ghislaine Maxwell has been arrested on allegations of child sex trafficking.
11:50Why would you wish such a person well?
11:52Well, first of all, I don't know that, but I do know that...
11:53She has. She's been arrested for that.
11:55Her friend or boyfriend...
11:57Epstein.
11:57...was either killed or committed suicide in jail.
12:00She's now in jail.
12:01Uh-huh.
12:02Yeah, I wish her well. I'd wish you well. I'd wish a lot of people well. Good luck.
12:06Today, the president claimed he didn't know his Justice Department was planning to speak with Maxwell.
12:11I don't know about it, but I think it's something that would be... sounds appropriate to do you.
12:15Trump, clearly frustrated by the Epstein story, today tried to shift the spotlight onto Barack Obama,
12:21baselessly accusing the former president of treason in the 2016 election.
12:25He's guilty. They... this was treason. This was every word you can think of. They tried to steal the election.
12:34Trump falsely claiming Obama deliberately manufactured and politicized intelligence reports about Russian interference in the 2016 election.
12:43Tonight, in a rare rebuke, Obama firing back, his spokesman pointing to the widely accepted conclusion
12:49that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election, but did not successfully manipulate any votes.
12:56Noting those findings were affirmed by Republicans in Congress, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
13:02The spokesman adding,
13:03These bizarre allegations are ridiculous, and a weak attempt at distraction.
13:08Trump's efforts to shake the Epstein case have only increased scrutiny of their friendly relationship of more than a decade.
13:15Epstein was asked about it in a 2010 deposition in a civil suit.
13:19Have you ever had a personal relationship with Donald Trump?
13:25What do you mean by personal relationships?
13:27Have you socialized with him?
13:30Yes, sir.
13:31Yes?
13:32Yes, sir.
13:32Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18?
13:45Though I'd like to answer that question, at least today, I'm going to have to assert my 5th, 6th, and 14th Amendment right, sir.
13:53When Epstein was arrested in 2019, Trump said they'd had a falling out and hadn't spoken in 15 years.
14:00On Capitol Hill today, Democrats and some Republicans are demanding that the Justice Department release the Epstein files.
14:07Today, the House Oversight Committee voted to subpoena Maxwell to testify.
14:11The president's staff, administration, his own children, his vice president have promised that these files would come out, and now we're being told it's a hoax.
14:21It just doesn't wash.
14:22And again, David, the deputy attorney general says he plans to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell soon.
14:28In a statement, her attorney saying they are, quote, grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case.
14:35And we should note she's appealed her 20-year sentence and is eager to get out of prison.
14:40David.
14:40Mary Bruce at the White House again tonight for us.
14:42Thank you, Mary.
14:43There's also breaking news in the Menendez case tonight, just weeks before this crucial hearing over their potential freedom.
14:48Tonight, we've learned here that Eric Menendez has had a health emergency.
14:52Here's Aaron Kaczorski.
14:54Tonight, one month before a pivotal parole hearing, Eric Menendez is in the hospital with a serious medical condition that his attorney says should convince the governor of California to set him free.
15:05His wife's daughter posting on social media, my dad is in the hospital due to passing a kidney stone.
15:10Please keep him in your prayers.
15:12Sources tell ABC News his condition may be even more complicated.
15:16So tonight, defense attorney Mark Garagos speaking with TMZ, saying Eric needs to be out of prison.
15:21And he medically furloughed in advance of the hearing so that he can work with the parole attorney and get up to speed and be ready.
15:31Eric Menendez and his older brother Lyle were convicted of the 1989 murders of their parents in a case that captivated the country.
15:38In May, a judge resentenced them, making them eligible for parole.
15:42If the parole board recommends releasing the Menendez brothers, David, Governor Newsom has suggested he could make a final decision in the case by Labor Day.
15:51David.
15:51Aaron, thank you to the Idaho College murders case tonight.
15:54And Brian Koberger, who pleaded guilty, will be sentenced tomorrow.
15:58And tonight here, Kena Whitworth inside the prison where he might be sent.
16:02Kena.
16:02Yeah, David, inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, they are no stranger to a high-profile inmate.
16:09But officials tell me Brian Koberger is as high-profile as it gets.
16:13And that will be a factor in determining his safety and his placement, an assessment that can take about 7 to 14 days before he's officially placed.
16:21Now, the facility is double-walled and reinforced with razor wire on the outside and equipped with various security levels on the inside to accommodate up to 535 of the most dangerous and volatile male inmates.
16:35But, David, officials here tell me those serving out life sentences are often the easiest to deal with because for them, David, this is home and it always will be.
16:43Kena Whitworth following this case.
16:45When we come back tonight, there's an urgent search right now for a missing student last seen walking down the street.
16:51Her family helping in the search.
16:52Here are the images tonight.
16:53Their plea now and what authorities have revealed.
16:56And the largest great white shark ever tagged in the Atlantic.
16:59Where that shark has been spotted tonight right off the East Coast in a moment.
17:03Tonight here, the urgent search for a missing grad student in La Crosse, Wisconsin.
17:07Police say Elliot Hines was last seen on surveillance Sunday walking near the Mississippi River.
17:11Her family tonight helping authorities search.
17:14Her mother pleading for anyone with information to please come forward.
17:18When we come back tonight, the new study, what the pandemic might have done to your brain, even if you didn't have COVID.
17:24And the largest great white ever tagged in the Atlantic and where they've spotted the shark tonight right off the East Coast.
17:30To the index, a new study tonight finds the pandemic may have aged our brains.
17:35That explains it.
17:35Whether you had COVID or not, they say, researchers say brain scans actually show COVID.
17:40The stress involved may have sped up brain aging by more than five months during that period.
17:44They believe it's reversible with exercise, diet, and of course, staying engaged.
17:48The largest great white shark ever tagged in the Atlantic now spotted off Nantucket.
17:53The shark, nicknamed Contender, nearly 14 feet long, more than 1,600 pounds.
17:57In February, he pinged off Vero Beach, Florida.
18:01Quite a trek.
18:01When we come back tonight, the surprise for two women in New York City riding in a New York City pedicab, what Billy Joel did from his window.
18:11Funny tonight, Billy Joel opening up about his health and his surprise for two unsuspecting fans in New York.
18:17Tonight, music legend Billy Joel, candid and hopeful amid his new health battle.
18:22Sing us a song, you're a piano man.
18:26Five Grammys, decades of hits.
18:28Just two months ago, while rehearsing for his international tour, he was forced to cancel after a diagnosis, a rare brain disorder.
18:42I feel good.
18:43I think they keep referring to what I have as a brain disorder.
18:47So it sounds a lot worse than what I'm feeling.
18:51Tonight, Billy Joel talking about it publicly for the first time with comedian Bill Maher.
18:55It used to be called water on the brain.
18:58Now it's called hydrocephalus, normal pressure hydrocephalus.
19:02What cause is that?
19:03Nobody knows.
19:05The disorder can affect balance, hearing, vision.
19:08But tonight, Billy Joel is saying he's feeling good and working on getting better.
19:12Posting this video of a pedicab driver in New York City, fans right there in the back.
19:17You see me are playing you, man.
19:19They're listening, of course, to his song, New York State of Mind.
19:22Hey, man, big man.
19:24How are you?
19:25How are you feeling?
19:27Tonight, Billy Joel thanking those two women for their support and fans everywhere as he celebrates a new two-part documentary on HBO.
19:34The 76-year-old determined to keep making music.
19:38Everything I've done and everything I've lived through has somehow found its way into my music.
19:44But we are all rooting for Billy Joel, and I'll see you right here tomorrow.
19:50Good night.
