JURY SELECTION IS UNDERWAY IN CHARLOTTE COUNTY FOR THE TRIAL OF MELISSA BAILEY --

THE 29-YEAR OLD MOTHER IS ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY MOLESTING HER INFANT DAUGHTER.

NBC 2'S CHARLIE KEEGAN WAS THE ONLY ONE IN COURT TODAY AS JURY SELECTION BEGAN.

MELISSA BAILEY TRIAL-REM-LIVE

29-year-old melissa bailey is not only accused of raping her 18-month-old girl but allowing her boyfriend to do the same.

deputies arrested her in 2009 and charged her with six felonies saying it was one of the worst cases they've ever investigated.

MELISSA BAILEY TRIAL-VO

her trial was supposed to start in april but bailey claimed she had no idea what her defense would be.

today, she has a defense and jury selection is underway.

her lawyer says he'll use insanity as a defense.

since the april trial date , a doctor ruled bailey is competent to stand trial.

before the jury selection began we learned bailey rejected a plea deal from the state.

now if she's convicted she could face up to life in prison.

glenn nelson the 62-year-old boyfriend who was also accused if raping the baby agreed to a plea deal last year and is currently in prison.

This is the type of big ticketed RVs which some city leaders argue will be a boom to the cape's economy.

RV PARK CAPE CORAL-PKG

A developer highlights their big dream for this Northwest Cape Coral land to city leaders tonight.

They want to transform the 71 acrea area into a high end RV destination off burnt store road.

The process to change current cape zoning and land use regulations could take up to two years.

city leaders argue staff must write the changes in a way which allows for luxury RVs but safeguards the city's character.

Those who sell the close to a million dollar toys claim the cape should bet on this still untapped market.

RV PARK CAPE CORAL-REM-LIVE

Now, council Kevin McGrail tells us he doesn't want to see the cape turn ino a trailer park.

Instead, he wants to lure so-called "rv elites" in.

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

LESS RAIN, MORE SUN AHEAD

The sunshine feels really nice after the weekend we just had. Good news - there's going to be a lot more of it this week!

High pressure is beginning to build over Florida. When this happens we typically see very benign weather, and that's exactly what is coming our way.

As it settles over, the skies will clear, we'll see less rain, and more sunshine. Oh, and I forgot to mention… Warmer temperatures!

Highs will be in the mid 90s. Of course when one factors in the humidity it'll feel 100+.

The rain will be our only way too cool down. We do expect heavy downpours and storms, but they will be very isolated. What we are calling for is the return of normal August weather. That means isolated, hit or miss, type storms along the sea breeze pushing inland during the afternoon.

This pattern will last for the next 7 days!

The tropics continue to be rather quiet. We're watching two tropical waves, one in the Caribbean and another in the open Atlantic. Both disturbances are battling strong wind shear and dry air, which will make it difficult for either of these systems to organize. We don't expect either of these tropical wave to be a threat to Southwest Florida or the U.S. mainland.

CARDIAC DEVICE FOR KIDS-PKG

WHEN YOU'RE ONLY THREE…

AND HAVE FOUR BIG BROTHERS.

YOU PRACTICALLY HAVE TO BECOME A SUPER HERO TO SURVIVE. AND LITTLE CHARLIE MCMICKEN IS CHANNELING ALL THE SUPER STRENGTH HE CAN TO WARD OFF A DEADLY FOE.

"He started not eating, throwing up, crying non-stop."

SHORTLY AFTER HE WAS BORN, CHARLIE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CARDIOMYOPATHY.

"He was born with a condition where his muscle cells are not normal. He wasn't able to run around and eventually, it got bad enough where he wasn't able to eat. It was scary seeing him. "

BUT THIS IS CHANGING EVERYTHING FOR CHARLIE. IT'S THE PEDIATRIC BERLIN HEART, A SIMILAR BUT SMALLER VERSION OF A DEVICE THAT HELPED FORMER VICE PRESIDENT DICK CHENEY WHEN HIS HEART WAS FAILING. IN CHILDREN, IT SITS OUTSIDE THE BODY AND IS CONNECTED TO THE HEART BY MULTIPLE TUBES. THE DEVICE PUMPS BLOOD TO VITAL ORGANS, HELPING THE FAILING HEART.

"Everything was better quite quickly."

AUGUST MARKS CHARLIES ELEVENTH MONTH IN THE CLEVELAND CLINIC. FOR 6 MONTHS HE'S BEEN TETHERED TO HIS LIFE LINE.

"If we didn't have that, we wouldn't be here. I mean it saved his life."

BUT THIS IS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX. CHARLIE WILL NEED A HEART TRANSPLANT TO SURVIVE AND BE BACK WITH HIS BROTHERS WHERE HE BELONGS.

"I can't wait to go home and throw the baseball with him."

"I wanna go swimming in the pool with him."

"I wanna have a huge party and celebrate him coming back. I've missed him so much."

WITH THE HELP OF A DONOR, THIS SUPER LITTLE GUY, WILL BE HOME SOON.

SOME SCARY MOMENTS AT THE INDIANA STATE FAIR THIS WEEKEND.

LOOK AT THIS --

A STAGECOACH FLIPPED OVER ONTO ITS SIDE.

THE DRIVER AND THE STATE FAIR QUEEN WERE THROWN ON THE GROUND.

STAGECOACH FLIPS INDIANA-PKG

THEY WERE JUST WARMING UP THE CROWD BEFORE THE MAIN EVENT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STAGE COACH TIPPED OVER.

"It looks like something might have let loose and cocked those wheels off the side.cut and tugged it to the ground.and flipped that stage coach onto its side."

MATT HALL SHOT THIS VIDEO AND WAS JUST A COUPLE OF ROWS UP FROM THE ARENA FLOOR.

"The stage coach come right around in front of me and they weren't traveling very fast."

THE DRIVER OF THE STAGE COACH, ACCORDING TO FAIR OFFICIALS, HAS 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE DRIVING. SITTING BESIDE HIM IS THE INDIANA STATE FAIR QUEEN ERIKA BURGHARDT

.INSIDE THE COACH ARE FOUR OTHERS ALONG FOR THE RIDE.

"It wasn't because of speed or nothing like that, It looked like it dug in and tilted right over."

WHAT MADE THE STAGE COACH TIP OVER WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO FIGURE OUT. HOW THE STATE FAIR OFFICIALS AND EMERGENCY PERSONNEL RESPONDED IS ON VIDEO.

"There were people right there as soon as it was over and came to its side. There were men

who grabbed the horses to keep them under control and people were already getting inside the stage coach."

BURGHARDT AND THE DRIVER WERE UP ON THEIR FEET ALMOST IMMEDIATELY. INSIDE THE COACH, THERE WERE FOUR FAIR JUDGES. AND NOTICE DAVID SHAW, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER OF THE INDIANA STATE FAIR, IS ONE OF THE FIRST ON THE ARENA FLOOR.

"The response was within, I'd say 20 seconds. I was in the hallway of the coliseum. I was one of the first one's there as well. And I'm proud of the response."

SHAW WAS HIRED EARLIER THIS SUMMER BY THE STATE FAIR BOARD AND PUT INTO ACTION NEW SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS AFTER THE STAGE RIGGING COLLAPSE LAST YEAR.

"So if you happen to see Congressman Ryan, tell him how important this farm bill is to Iowa and

our rural communities.

"The president's idea for instance for medicare was to cut it by 700 billion dollars.

That's not the right answer; we wanna make sure we preserve and protect medicare."

UNDER OBAMA HEALTH CARE, MEDICARE PAYMENTS TO DOCTORS AND DRUG COMPANIES WILL DROP.NOT THE BENEFITS TO SENIORS.

RUNS:

IT READS ALMOST LIKE A PREGNANCY TEST. RESULTS COME BACK IN 20 MINUTES. WHILE FALSE POSITIVES ARE RARE, A NEGATIVE READING COULD BE MISLEADING.

DR. MARSHALL D'SOUZA/HIV SPECIALIST

RUNS:

9:20 It may be an early infection. Sometimes the test can take as long as three months or sometimes as long as six months to become positive. So a negative test does not mean that there is no HIV. The test needs to be repeated.

It's estimated more than a quarter-million people in this country are walking around with HIV and don't know it. The goal is to get them tested and treated.
