TOSS TO DAVE-2-SHOT, BOXES

A STATEWIDE INVESTIGATION IS UNDERWAY TONIGHT AFTER THE NBC 2 INVESTIGATORS DISCOVER VOTER INTIMIDATION IN LEE AND COLLIER COUNTIES.

LETTERS ARE GOING OUT TO REGISTERED VOTERS THREATENING THEM WITH ARREST AND IMPRISONMENT.

COLLIER VOTER INTIMIDATION LETTERS-REMLIVE

SO FAR 6 BOGUS LETTERS LIKE THIS HAVE GONE OUT TO REGISTERED VOTERS IN LEE AND COLLIER COUNTIES CHALLENGING THEIR CITIZENSHIP AND THEIR ELIGIBILITY TO VOTE.

COLLIER VOTER INTIMIDATION LETTERS-BNR-PKG

IT'S A LETTER NAPLES RESIDENT JEFF SIEWERT NEVER EXPECTED TO GET IN THE MAIL.

TIM DURHAM WITH THE COLLIER SUPERVISOR OF ELECTIONS OFFICE SAYS SO FAR 4 SUCH LETTERS HAVE TURNED UP HERE IN COLLIER COUNTY.

ALL OF THEM SENT FROM SEATTLE, WASHINGTON.

THE ONLY COMMONALITY BETWEEN THE PEOPLE WHO GOT THEM? THEY'RE ALL REGISTERED REPUBLICANS.

THE BOGUS LETTER IS MODELED OFF OF A REAL ONE.

BUT YOU CAN TELL IT'S FAKE BECAUSE IT THREATENS THE RECEIVER WITH ARREST AND EVEN PRISON. SOMETHING THE ELECTIONS OFFICE WOULD NEVER DO.

AND ANOTHER RED FLAG - THE FAKE LETTER DOESN'T HAVE A SIGNATURE.

COLLIER VOTER INTIMIDATION LETTERS-REMLIVE, BOXES,

THE FBI IS NOW INVESTIGATING THESE LETTERS. AND LATE THIS AFTERNOON AN EMAIL ALERT WENT OUT TO SUPERVISORS OF ELECTIONS ACROSS THE STATE WARNING THEM OF THE SCAM.

DAVE … THERE'S BEEN A HUGE PUSH TO GET NON-CITIZENS OFF THE VOTER ROLLS SINCE OUR INVESTIGATION NEARLY A YEAR AGO.

WERE THE PEOPLE TARGETED WITH THIS LETTER ON THE STATE'S LIST OF POTENTIAL INELIGIBLE VOTERS?

NO - NONE OF THE FOLKS - AT LEAST THOSE IN COLLIER COUNTY - WERE ON THAT LIST.

THE FAKE LETTER IS SIMILAR TO THE REAL ONE THOUGH.

WE'VE HIGHLIGHTED ALL THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO ON OUR WEBSITE, NBC-2.COM.

CAPE VOTER FRAUD & STATE REMINDER-OC-CG

HERE'S ANOTHER ELECTION CON TO LOOK OUT FOR.

A CAPE CORAL WOMAN CLAIMS SHE GOT A CALL FROM SOMEONE WITH THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE-- ASKING THE WOMAN TO CAST HER VOTE OVER THE PHONE.

THAT IS NOT LEGAL.

SO DON'T FALL FOR IT.

THE WOMAN DIDN'T.

INSTEAD SHE CALLED POLICE TO REPORT IT.

THE STATE REMINDS YOU TO BE VIGILANT THIS ELECTION SEASON.

DIRTY TRICKS FLY LIKE BIRDS.

TOSS TO KELLY-OC-VO-FLY

THE METRO PARKWAY EXTENSION FINALLY OPENS TO DRIVER.

AND WITHIN THE FIRST DAY, A SERIOUS CRASH.

IT IS SOMETHING NEIGHBORS IN WARNED THE STATE WOULD HAPPEN. AT AN INTERSECTION, THEY CALL A DEATH TRAP.

NBC2'S KELLY CRESWELL IS LIVE FROM THE METRO PARKWAY EXTENSION, NEAR BRIARCLIFF ROAD WHERE DRIVERS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT CROSSING.

METRO EXT. CORNER OF CONCERN-REM-1

METRO EXT. CORNER OF CONCERN-BNR-PKG

The Briarcliff community knew for years metro parkway was going to be extended out to US 41.

Take sound

Laura Allen, Resident

"we came back here but we didn't realize what an issue it would be when we wanted to get out if here once metro went through."

With hundreds of people living in the south lee county community, some also knew an intersection like this without lights---was going to be dangerous.

Take sound

Barbara

"That could have been me and my children in the car."

The lee county schools department of transportation deemed it unsafe for school buses to cross six lanes of traffic and 18 school bus routes have already been changed--and the director says that number could grow.

Nats

But what residents don't want to grow--are the number of accidents at this intersection.

Take sound

Barbara

"I look out my front door and there's all ambulances and fire trucks."

Less than 24 hours that the new road, Michael g rippe parkway, had been open, but a portion had to be closed so investigators could pick up the pieces of an accident. It's a scene residents were hoping could've been prevented.

Take sound

Laura Allen, Resident

"I'm just afraid that the county or the state will wait until we have a

few people killed there before they do anything about it and I wish they

would be proactive instead of reactive."

DOT told residents before the project started this intersection would be studied once traffic patterns evolved to see if stoplights were needed. That study is scheduled to happen late winter-early spring of 2013. But residents say they can't wait that long--and already have sent letters to local legislators and our governor to try to get something done.

Take sound

Laura

METRO EXT. CORNER OF CONCERN-REM-CG

WE'VE JUST LEARNED THE LEE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS SEARCHING FOR THE DRIVER WHO MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO TODAY'S ACCIDENT. WITNESSES SAY A FEMALE DRIVER TRAVELED ACROSS THE LANES--FORCING THE MAN RIDING ON HIS SCOOTER TO PUT HIS BIKE DOWN TO AVOID GETTING HIT. SHE DROVE OFF, HEADED EASTBOUND ON BRIARCLIFF ROAD.

NEW AT SIX--

A DISTURBING CASE OF CHILD NEGLECT.

A THREE MONTH OLD GIRL COVERED IN BRUISES, RASHES, AND DRIED BLOOD.

DEPUTIES SAY SHE EVEN HAD MAGGOTS INSIDE OF HER EARS.

NFM CHILD NEGLECT-BNR-PKG

INSIDE THIS NORTH FORT MYERS TRAILER-

11:24 "human poop on the floor- that's bad.

A 3 MONTH-OLD, REPORTEDLY LIVED WITH HER PARENTS IN FILTH-

COVERED IN CAT SCRATCHES,

SORES, DEAD SKIN-

AND MAGGOTS COMING OUT OF HER EARS.

10:13 "it was really bad, lots of bad furniture- bugs, fleas."

THE HOME WAS SO BAD-

THE LANDLORD HAS TO RIP MOST EVERYTHING OUT-

INCLUDING FLOORS AND WALLS.

7:16 "bugs, all over. we had to take all the flooring out of here- pretty much everything."

LEE COUNTY DEPUTIES SAY GUY KEARNS AND MIRINDA BUYCE'S HOME WAS INFESTED WITH FLIES, COCKROACHES AND FLEAS, WITH HUMAN FECES ON THE FLOOR.

THIS ALL REPORTEDLY HAPPENED IN JULY-

BUT KEARNS AND BUYCE WERE JUST ARRESTED-

AFTER DEPUTIES GOT THEIR WARRANT.

ON FACEBOOK-

SOMEONE NOTICED A PICTURE OF THE BRUISED BABY GIRL HAD BEEN POSTED ON BUYCE'S PAGE-

AND THEN CAME ALLEGATIONS THAT KEARNS HAD KICKED HIS DAUGHTER WHILE SHE WAS IN HER BABY SEAT.

AROUND THAT SAME TIME-

A FAMILY MEMBER TOOK THE LITTLE GIRL TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN THEY SAW MAGGOTS COMING FROM THE CHILD'S EARS.

DCF IMMEDIATELY PUT THE 3 MONTH-OLD IN FOSTER CARE-

AND THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE COUPLE BEGAN.

DETECTIVES SAY THEY THEN MOVED INTO THIS TRAILER.

meaghan deputies arrested them here- neighbors say they've been living here for the past month with no electricity or water.

3:34 "you don't even want to walk into that house- right now- it's just nasty."

THE COUPLE IS FACING CHILD NEGLECT CHARGES.

WE'RE TOLD THEIR DAUGHTER IS RECOVERING AND HAPPY AT HER FOSTER HOME-

THEIR FORMER HOME THOUGH-

IS STILL BEING RIPPED APART DUE TO THE CONDITIONS THEY ALLEGEDLY ALL LIVED IN.

ROBERT VAN WINKLE FORECAST OPEN-CLIP

FIRST ALERT 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.

Strong high pressure over the Southeast US has kept our deep atmosphere dry and stable for the

second day in a row. A nice, dry evening lies ahead.followed by a clear and pleasant night.

Lows at sunrise will fall to the upper 60s with middle 60s for the deep inland cool spots.

A persistent E-NE flow around the surface high will start to move some low level Atlantic mois-

ture across the peninsula.and with time,we may have a few passing showers to track. Tomorrow looks

to be a partly sunny and dry day.but by Wednesday and Thursday, there may be sufficient

moisture for a stray afternoon shower. It will also be a bit breezy around here through midweek.

Sandy will be making her close approach to SW Florida Friday thru early Saturday. Forecast

ideas of the tropical cyclone morphing into more of a hybrid low implies an expansion of the

storm's wind field. And with such a large envelope of cyclonic turning, it's possible that the storm's

moisture field may expand as well. For us, it would be nothing more than a slight uptick in the

Paulette Henry // 42:51 That's when I saw this thing pop us from the FBI and say I need to pay $200 to unlock my computer. 42:57

YOU CAN GET THE VIRUS SIMPLY BY SURFING THE WEB. WHAT'S SCARY IS YOU CAN'T SEE IT; IT CAN EVEN BE EMBEDDED IN EMAIL.

HOPING CINTRON WOULD TAKE THE BAIT.

HE DIDN'T.

Sarafin Cintron /// 28:38 I told him I was expecting your call.

NOT BECAUSE HE HAD A PROBLEM, BUT BECAUSE HIS NEIGHBOR RECEIVED THE SAME CALL.

UNFORTUNATELY THAT NEIGHBOR ALLOWED THE SCAMMER TO GAIN REMOTE ACCESS TO HIS COMPUTER.

Sarafin /// 28:17 They actually went into his machine and he witnessed them trying to transfer money through Western Union. 28:24

INVESTIGATORS SUSPECT THE SCAM ARTIST WAS ABOUT TO USE A STOLEN CREDIT CARD TO WIRE MONEY.

Stacey /// 03:35 So then when law enforcement goes to trace it back, what we're going to do is trace it back to your computer. 03:41

KNOWING THAT, CINTRON'S NEIGHBOR QUICKLY UNPLUGGED HIS COMPUTER AND SHUT IT DOWN.
