Episode description

More than 3,800 people have died and more than 15,000 are injured after a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Turkey and Syria. Turkey's Disaster and Emergency Management Agency says at least 5,600 buildings collapsed during and after the quake. Kit Miyamoto is structural engineer and is headed to Turkey tomorrow to join a team from his company who are already on the ground. He tells Anderson Cooper how the search and rescue teams approach collapsed and unstable buildings.

Plus, CNN National Correspondent Randi Kaye joins AC360 from Walterboro, South Carolina where the double murder trial of Alex Murdaugh continues. The now-disbarred attorney is accused of killing his wife and son back in 2021.
