>> translator: i want to see the sun so when our houses are rebuilt, we can live if peace, we can live in ukraine, because this is our native home. >> reporter: a ukrainian official in mariupol saying a planned evacuation has been thwarted by the russian military. he says at least 200 civilians who thought they were on a bus headed to safe points were instead taken into russian-controlled territory in the east. russia capturing dozens of small towns in eastern ukraine, but uk officials say russians have not made any major gains in the last 24 hours. and this as russia reveals its end game in this invasion. top military officials say they plan to take full control over southern ukraine and the eastern donbas region. let's bring in scott mclean in lviv. what more can you tell us about these missile strikes in odesa? >> reporter: hey, fredricka. one city counselor in odesa called these an easter gift from vladimir putin. this is not the kind of gift that you want to get. we're talking about six cruise missiles pointed directly at the city. as you mentioned earlier, officials say they hit a military facility and they also hit two residential buildings as well. the death toll as it stands right now is at five with 18 others wounded, and they say that number is likely to rise because this so far is just the people that they know about. one of those victims officials say was a 3-month-old baby. ukrainians say that two missiles were actually struck down by the missile defense system along with two drones as well. one person was burned inside of their car outside of one of the residential buildings that was struck as well. now, ukrainian foreign minister also responding to this saying that the only point of these attacks on odesa is so strike fear into population. the only point is terror, he says. he's pushing for the country to designate russia as a state sponsor of terror to cut off cultural ties torque cut off contacts and business with russia given these latest round of strikes against odesa. fredricka? >> there's so much to delve into here. i want to ask you about those satellite photos of what appear to be, or officials particularly in mariupol are saying are mass graves. what more are we hearing about that? >> reporter: these satellite images were taken from an existing cemetery to the east of mariupol. you see graves that have been there for quite a long time and new trenches that have been dug maybe 40, 45 yards long, and then there are several rows of them. local officials in mariupol say that this is evidence that -- of mass graves, that bodies are being quickly disposed of in graves just like these. cnn doesn't have enough information to verify those claims, but it is not the first time that officials have made it. just a few days ago, they also said that another cemetery, they were quickly building graves or digging graves about ten miles to the west of the city as well. ukrainian officials say that the death toll in mariupol is 20,000. it is impossible to know what the true scale of the death toll is given the city continues to be under siege, and it is almost impossible to get in and, as we're finding out, very difficult to get out as well. >> incredibly disturbing when this mariupol city official is saying this planned humanitarian corridor today was thwarted by the russian military. what do we know about people who were on buses thinking they were going to safety but instead have been bussed to russia? >> reporter: we have heard this before, fredricka. in this incident there was supposed to be a humanitarian corridor leaving from a mall on the western edge of the city. it was supposed to end up in zaporizhzhia, which is in ukrainian-held territory. even earlier today, ukrainian officials were warning people who might be headed toward that humanitarian corridor hoping to get out of the city, they were warning that the russians may try to redirect people toward russian-held territory and ultimately to russia. that appears to be exactly what's happened in this case. so when people showed up, about 200 of them, there were no buses in the place they were supposed to be. instead, according to local officials, from the mayor's office in mariupol, people were instead told to disperse because there would be shelling in the area. there were buses about 200 yards away that quickly filled up with people, but only once people were on board did they realize they weren't headed to zaporizhzhia but to another city inside russian-occupied territory and very likely those people will go onwards to russia. i've spoken to people before in estonia a few days ago who had a very similar story. they ended up fleeing mariupol, trying to get out, and russia was frankly the only direction they could find any sort of corridor towards. and rather than take their chances in mariupol, they went to safety in the very country that's responsible for bombing their homes and completely uprooting their lives. >> wow. unbelievably alarming. scott mclean in lviv, thank you so much. let's bring in colonel sedrick laton, a retired u.s. air force colonel. good to see you. i wonder what your reaction is to that kind of confusion being promoted at what would be humanitarian corridors, people getting on a bus, told there's no bus, or they see other buses and come to find out they're going into russian territory. what is going on here, in your view? >> yeah. this is a really sinister psychological play, fredricka, and it's really disturbing. you know, what they're doing is they're intimidating the population, a very vulnerable population, and they're doing things that, you know, kind of make them go into a world that's kind of kafka-esque, if i may say so. it's one of those thing where is they're involved all of a sudden in a place, and i'm sure todd saw, these people to get out of russia, it takes a lot of effort for them to do so. most of them don't make it out there once they're stuck there. so this is a real problem and it is a violation of all the rules that you have when it comes to dealing with refugees or displaced persons. >> i mean, there are so many examples of cruelty. i mean, that's one. as you've just mentioned, a cruel form of intimidation. then these satellite images of what appear to be mass graves, mariupol officials saying that's what they believe they are. how do you assess what we're seeing and how it got to be that way? >> yeah. these images remind me a bit of what we saw in areas like sin te bosnian crisis in the '90s. there were mass graves there. when you looked at the satellite imagery, you know, the images we saw at that time were very consistent with what we see here. and it does appear to be consistent with the development and the digging of mass graves on a large scale. and, you know, while i'm not as familiar with what happened in rwanda, my understanding is that similar pictures were also available at that time, you know, when the rwandan genocide occurred. this is the kind of thing that has to be part of the evidentiary base that they will use for war crimes trial, and it does appear to be very consistent, especially when you look at the top of the screen there, you know, in the middle. that looks very much like these are mass graves that are being dug to accommodate a large, large number of people, large number of bodies. >> and could you help people understand how that would be conducted if these are, you know, russian soldiers who helped dig or their machinery that helped be dig? or how do they create these mass graves and dispense of these bodies? >> so, that depends, fredricka. they could be using their own soldiers, but more likely they may be using local civilians that they've pressed into labor. so either one is possible. it's something that we have to look at, you know, to see. there would have to be testimony from people who actually did this. they would have to take the grave diggers. it could be the grave dig thaers work in the local cemetery, but they need a lot more people and labor to do this, especially at this scale. so i think that you will find that there's going to be a mix of people that did this, that were ordered to d this, and probably ordered to do so maybe even at the point of a gun. it's very disturbing. it's certainly part of the plan that they have to eliminate the ukrainian population. >> more layers of cruelty. so let's also now talk about this steel factory complex in mariupol. we understand that civilians, perhaps ukrainian military, you know, are there. that is a safe place for now. but talk to us about, you know, strategically, what is it that russia has in mind? >> to so the plant is a large facility built actually originally in the 1930s under stalin's rule, part of the mass industrialization effort that he undertook in the soviet union at the time. and underneath this are these cavernous areas that can hold up to 4,000 people. so for moment, we think there are about 2,000 people of the types you mentioned, you know, ukrainian soldiers, civilians, women and children, all mixed in together there. for moment, they're safe. the russians have decided that they don't want to assault these areas directly from a tactical military standpoint, and that is probably a good decision because the cavernous areas in there are perfect for defenders. so from a military perspective, as long as they have weapons and as long as they can shoot them, they can make it really difficult for anybody who is trying to clear the rooms, you know, as the description would be in the military, and it would be very hard for them to take these people prisoner unless, unless they use chemical agents or something like that to disperse them. and that of course is a big danger right now. >> oh, my gosh. it gets more horrible by the minute and day. colonel cedric leighton, thank you so much. appreciate it. >> you bet. still ahead, 15 years after british toddler madeleine mccann vanished in a family vacation, prosecutors have officially identified a suspect. details next.. the jar to all five layers. raise the jar to the best gelato... you've ever tasted. talenti. raise the jar. you don't know how much pressure you put on your septic system. but rid-x does. iscientists provedy, that rid- x reduces up to 20% of waste build up every month. ta the pressure off with rid-x. at vanguard, you're more than just an investor, you're an owner with access to financial advice, tools and a personalized plan that helps you build a future for those you love. vanguard. become an owner. at jp morgan, the only definition of wealth that matters is yours. it can be a smaller house, but a bigger nest egg. a goal to work toward, or the freedom to walk away. with 200 years of experience, personalized advice, and commission free trades on an award-winning app, we are working for you. planning. investing. advice. jp morgan wealth management. i don't just play someone brainy on tv - i'm an actual neuroscientist. and i love the science behind neuriva plus. unlike ordinary memory supplements, neuriva plus fuels six key indicators of brain performance. more brain performance?

5 -year-old sergei and his wife and daughter found dead in their home in spain tuesday, and vladislav, a 51-year-old former vp at a bank and his wife and daughter found dead in their moscow apartment monday. russia's state news agency says moscow police are investigating the deaths as a murder/suicide tantamount to saying, nothing suspicious here. spanish police are now guarding a luxury house north of barcelona. an official source close to the investigation says the bodies of his wife and daughter, which showed signs of violence, were found inside the home. and his body was found outside in the garden. the neighbors described them as wealthy but often traveling. >> translator: he had nice cars. i thought they were romanian from what i understand. and besides, you could see they were people with money. >> reporter: the investigative source says spanish police have sealed their probe into the deaths, no leaks that might prejudge their case. two different investigations, two very different jurisdictions. historically, spain's judiciary significantly more transparent than russia's. russia's investigators releasing this ultra short four-second video of the crime scene inside the apartment. the family's employees reportedly alerted a relative the parents and daughter weren't answering calls from within their locked apartment. police found all three dead from gunshot wounds. suspicious deaths of russians overseas and at home are nothing new. former russian spy alexander poisoned and killed in london 2006. a british coroner questioned the apparent suicide in his locked bathroom of oligarch and kremlin critic boris near london in 2013. 2018, the attempted murder by deadly russian nerve agent november chuck, a former spy and his daughter. so, too, in russia. putin critic alexei navalny poisoned, nearly killed with the drug in 2020. there is no evidence they were putin critics. there is evidence, however, that despite kremlin demands for loyalty among the elite, some previously silent putin allies are coming out against him. today, as putin's war polarizes russians for and against, suspicions of shady kremlin killings will likely linger long after moscow's investigators close the case. nic robertson, cnn, brussels. >> let's talk more about all this and beyond. let's bring in bill brauer. he was an investor working in russia until he became a target of vladimir putin himself after uncovering fraud by russian government officials. he's also written several books about his experiences including a new book called "freezing order: a true story of money laundering, murder, and surviving vladimir putin's wrath." good to see you again. so two eerily similar murders or deaths but very different approaches to the investigations. what do you make of these killings? >> well, i don't know anything specifically about the killings other than what's been publicly reported. but when you have wealthy russian businessmen dying and their family members dying, the first thing you should think of is that foul play is involved in almost all circumstances. it's a different scenario than people dying in other countries. there are so many different reasons why murders take place in russia. there have been so many murders that have taken place, as nic robertson just said, al tl thes different stories. and i've seen it for myself in the murder of my lawyer,er is guy, many other people connected to the case also died. and so i don't know these specific individuals, but the fact that they're involved in the gas business, a very dangerous business, the fact there's a lot of violence involved, i think that one should rule out foul play but not until you've gotten all the evidence. and you can pretty much be assured that anything going on in the investigation in russia will be fabricatede and untrue, but the spanish investigation hopefully will have a bit more transparency and clarity. >> so, now let's transition to this russian invasion in ukraine. and in a piece you wrote for "time," adapted from your book, you say it is now plain that putin is evil. this is not breathless hyperbole. it is fact. he has no regard for human life and only lusts over power and money. in his calculus, money is power and vice versa. so, do you believe that money is what's behind all of this? you know, how can, you know, this costly war be a money-making venture? >> well, i don't think the war itself is a money-making venture. i think it's a highly money-losing venture. but i think the reason why putin got involved in this war is because of money, and let mex plain that. so, vladimir putin has been around for 22 years. he's not like a normal head of state. a normal head of state governs for the sake of governing. he governs for the sake of stealing money. he and the people around him. and they have stolen an unbelievable amount of money since they started. i would say vladimir putin and all the people around him, the thousand people around him the last 22 years, have stolen a trillion dollars from the russian state. that is a thousand billion dollars. and that money should have been spent on public services, on hospitals and schools and so on. and so after about 22 year of this, the russian people, who don't get that money, are pretty mad. and those people in an instant could rise up against putin, and they've done it in other countries. we've seen it in the arab spring, in kazakhstan in january, and putin understood this. so i believe the reason for this war -- and this is dictator playbook 101 -- is to basically start a war, distract the people. i think that the reason he's doing this is to stay in power. so it comes from money. it comes from stealing money. it comes from him not wanting to be overthrown. it is obviously a hugely money-losing operation, but i think the root of this problem is corruption and money. >> i got you. so, money and power are his motivations. then is it the case still that you see that there are only two ways that this, talking about the invasion, can end, putin being removed by his own people, you know, removed from power, or putin getting the green light by no one doing anything, he gets the green light to continue on with this invasion in ukraine and set his eyes on other places? >> well, that's the big scary problem. it's not hypothetical. one of his big generals announced yesterday they want to go after moldova, another neighboring country. and for putin, the whole idea is to stay in a state of war because that's where he has all the people sort of cheering for him and rallying around him. that's what he needs to stay in power. all of this stuff will continue if he beats the ukrainians, then on to moldova, but more shockingly and scary, he might show up at the border of poland or lithuania, nato countries. then we have a dilemma, do we want to go to war with a nuclear power, with a man who's effectively a mafia boss ready to do anything to stay alive and stay in power? that's a scary thought. the only option for us is to do everything we possibly can to achieve the better option, which is getting the ukrainians support so they can win the war against russia. >> mm-hmm. so next week the u.n. secretary-general will meet with president putin on tuesday and president zelenskyy on thursday. i mean, who can trust anything that putin will say? i mean, so what's the point of these meetings? >> well, i think the point is that they want to try to solve the problem. but i can give you a prediction with 99% certainty that nothing is going -- nothing good is going to come from that. that's what the u.n. is for, to show up and try to resolve these things. but putin has no interest in resolving this thing. he's not going to say okay, let's do a cease-fire, let's stop everything, i retreat. that's never going to happen. nor is zelenskyy. he's going to say have half my country and call it quits. that's not going to happen. >> is it a futile exercise? >> it's a futile thing. let's go through the exercise, but one shouldn't hold out any hope, be watching and praying that something is going to happen from it because it isn't. there's no solution. putin needs this war, and ukraine shouldn't be giving up any territory, nor will they. so we're going to be in this situation for a long, long time, unfortunately. and the only way it's going to be resolved is if one side or the other wins, and we better hope it's the ukrainian side. >> bill, thank you so much. good to see you again. appreciate it. coming up, congresswoman marjorie taylor greene testified for more than three hours in a hearing to determine if the republican lawmaker is constitutionally disqualified from running for reelection. more ahead. well the sun is shig and the grass is green ♪ ♪ i'm way ahead of schedule with my trusty team ♪ ♪ there's heather on the hedges ♪ ♪ and kenny on the koi ♪ ♪ and your truck's been demolished by the peterson boyo♪ ♪ yes -- ♪ wait, what was that?

>> talk about the courage to object. >> reporter: greene's attorneys focusing on her own fears that day. >> were you a victim of the attack? >> yes, i was. i was in the house chamber when it happened. >> reporter: even though greene still defended some of those charged in connection with the insurrection as patriots. >> some of them are veterans, yes. some of them definitely are patriots. >> reporter: at the core of the case, a provision of the 14th amendment barring american officials from future office if found aiding or engaging in an insurrection. >> this is not politics. this is not theater. this is a serious case. >> reporter: the outcome in georgia could set a precedent for similar challenges against other republican officials for their roles in the insurrection. >> we're going to the capitol. >> reporter: including against former president trump if he runs again in 2024. the judge is expected to make a decision sometime early next month on whether or not marjorie taylor greene should be disqualified from seeking re-election. he'll then make a recommendation to the georgia secretary of state who will make a final determination. now, keep in mind, this insurrection disqualification clause of the 14th amendment is from the civil war era. that means it has never been tested in modern history before. so this will be an uphill battle for the challengers. amara walker, cnn, atlanta. joining me right now to discuss is case is page patd, a constitutional law attorney. good to see you. do you agree it's an uphill battle because it hasn't been challenged in many, many years? >> i do, fred. i actually think there's a pretty good argument that this administrative law judge is not going to be able to disqualify her from office. now, remember, we only had this hearing because a federal judge in atlanta said it could go forward. another federal judge in north carolina prevented a very similar hearing for a congress person there based on the constitutional argument that even though the constitution says someone who's participated in an insurrection cannot hold office, there were laws that were passed later to remove that restriction. so it is a legitimate legal issue, and i'm certain it's going to go back before a judge regardless of the decision from friday. >> all right. even though you see it as an uphill battle, how potentially precedent-setting of a kcase would this be? potentially there could be repercussions involving other members of congress who are being questioned about their knowledge or participation leading up to, on, or even after the january 6th insurrection? >> i think the possibility for a precedent here is not so much finding that she's disqualified from serve ing but finding this kind of procedure is something that can be used in the future. think about it. if a group of voters wants to challenge the qualifications of someone who's going to run for office, what an incredible opportunity to get that person under oath answering questions about their involvement in something like the january 6th insurrection. and if that is allowed to go forward, as it did on friday in other states, we could certainly see these challenges brought up again not just this year but in 2024. >> how potentially damaging do you see it that she didn't recall, i don't remember, she used that kind of phraseology a lot? >> yeah. i don't think she's trying to convince anyone that she's being honest or forthright about what she did. obviously, she has her supporters. there were many of them there in the court proceeding on friday cheering her on. one way to avoid a perjury charge is to basically say you don't remember. and she was pressed on several specific things, meetings she would have remembered, you would expect her to remember being in, talking to president trump about using martial law. you would expect her to remember if that happened. but saying i don't remember, i don't recall allows her to kind of skirt around those questions and avoid a potential perjury charge down the road. >> so, besides testimony, what would be needed to help prove this case? >> well, i think you have to have some sort of direct evidence. i mean, we know that congress has been investigating this for quite some time. they've been able to do more than just question witnesses. they've subpoenaed records. they've looked at emails. they've looked at text messages. this administrative law judge has none of that. all he can do is rely on what was presented in court on friday to make a recommendation to the secretary of state here in georgia. now, one thing we know about our secretary of state, he's a republican office holder, he's fighting for his job this year. so even if this administrative judge says, look, i think there's a reason to consider her unqualified, i don't think the secretary of state is going to make that decision, just given the fact that his job is literally on the line and there's only that testimony to prove the case. >> all right. paige pate, good to see you. thanks so much. >> good to see you. thank you. when we come back, desantis versus disney. is the florida governor punipunish ing disney for speaking out about the so-called "don't say gay" bill and violating 1st amendment rights?

>> i think so, fred. i mean, we have to start with the proposition that a company, just like a person, has the right to freedom of speech. the 1st amendment protects their ability to make statements about things they believe in, things they are against. they absolutely have that protection. the only question here is was this particular action, to strip away their authority in the middle florida, orlando area, take away their ability to govern themselves, was that in retaliation for them speaking out about this "don't say gay" bill? and i think it was. yes. absolutely. i mean, you look at the statements that the governor has made. you look at some of the social media messages members of the state legislature have put out there. i think it is clear not just to punish disney but to send a message to other companies not to take the same sort of position. so i don't think that's a good argument. but what we have seen already is some members of the legislature saying, wait a minute, it wasn't just disney. there were other tax districts involved. and maybe disney should not have had this privilege to begin with. but that doesn't matter under the constitutional analysis. they had it. now they don't. it's because of what they said. >> but it's interesting because now it's being analyzed in lots of different ways. i mean, it may be a privilege, you know, one point of view, but then we just spoke with, you know, the tax commissioner who says ultimately disney may be saving, they may be saving $160 million, you know, in taxes that they would have paid with that kind of special privilege. so are they really being punished, because now florida residents are going to have to pay that cost. so if disney wants to push forward on this and challenge the state legislature, challenge this law, what kind of recourse does it have to potentially strike down the law? >> well, fred, they'd need to go to court. they would file a lawsuit. they would allege a violation of their constitutional rights by the state of florida, and they would say they acted in retaliation by taking away this privilege we had. whether we should have had it to begin with or not is not the issue for the constitutional analysis. they had it. they want to take it away. they may go to a federal judge in florida. it looks like they'll be able to unload a bunch of debt on the taxpayers of florida, so there may be political or business reasons not to even challenge the decision. we'll see. >> unlike most of florida's new laws that are set to take effect july 1st, this law against disney's reedy creek improvement district doesn't begin until 2023. so, there is time, and in that time for the next year, what potentially could happen? >> well, disney, first of all, has to decide what ept they wan do. they have not made a public statement what their intentions are or what they're going to sue to undo this action. they'll think about it. they have very good lawyers. they'll decide if this is something they want to do not just from a legal standpoint, because i do believe they have a legal right to do it, but do they want to do this as a business decision. you're right. they have time to think about it. it's not an emergency. they don't have to act next week or even next month. >> paige pate, i'll just say so long, see ya later instead of good-bye. >> hope to see you soon. >> we'll have you back really soon. thank you. just a short time ago, russian missiles struck two residential buildings and a military facility in a very critical port city in ukraine. at the same time we are seeing how proof of potential war crimes taking place. we're live in ukraine straight ahead. no, no, nono. they're both invested.... in green energy. and also each other. digital tools soso impressive, you just can't stop. what would you like the power to do?
