Outfront the ie set deadline. Threaten to behead two hostages has passed. No word from isis on the hostages. Were awaiting news on their fate. The world hoping theyre still alive at this hour. You will be take part in this crew said. Japanese Officials Say they desperately tried to save the hostages lives. Last night jap need media reported the government made contact with isis and wait for a stam statement. At this hour theres not been a statement. We have not heard from isis again. The mother pleading for hersons life saying hes a good man who wonl onl who only wanted to save children in war zones. There will be some hope until theres proofize. Its strange that there has been no video yet. The sad fact is these hostage takings in past, theres no pres dent for them to end well. Thats the sad fact. As you say you hold out hope until theres proof thats unjustified. Jim, i know youre learning the pentagon could be ready to put troops on the front line as the u. S. Is getting more aggressive and feeling threat is more imminent. Thats right. The u. S. The pentagon reserving the right to ask to recommend u. S. Military advisors be deployed at the front lines with iraqi troops. In particular with planned upcoming effort to retake the Northern City of mosil. Its within months. They say theyre ready. U. S. Commanders say theyre not quite ready. The pentagon reserving the right to send the military advisors with them. Question would be would the president accept that recommendation. Thank you very much. Were learning more about the two men held hostage by isis. Will is out front. Reporter isis deadline to execute has past. The hostages fate unknown. Since tuesday, japanese government officials have tried to reach isis through third parties. Nhk says they have been exchanging emails and were awaiting a statement. Just hours before the deadline his mother made an emotional plea for her sons life. Translator i would like to say to all the members of islamic state, hes not an enemy of islamic state. I ask for his release. Reporter she noted her surprise that her son left his wife and then two week old child to search for his friend in syria. Translator my son left this very, very young baby to go and leave his family. I asked why he made this decision. The response is my son felt he had to do everything in his power to help and rescue his friend. Reporter a freelance journalist who reported from war zones made for unlikely friends. Cnn has learned over the past decade hes attempted suicide and lost his wife to cancer and lost his home and business to bankruptcy. After changing his first name to its feminine form he believed he was the reincarnation of a chinese chinese chinese chinese princess. He wrote i look normal outside but inside im mentally ill. He portrayed himself as a soldier of fortune and the head of a private military company. A company that existed only online. These two unlikely friends are in the hantdss of isis with the real fear that like five western hostages before them they will soon meet the same horrific end. She apologized for the inconvenience caused by her sons trip to syria. Part of that is culture and the other part is the growing sentiment in japan. Many lack sympathy because they feel they ignored warning and crossed into isis territory. D by isis last fall. Hes spoken to the families of americans held hostage by isis and Counter Terrorism official. Isis set a time limit. This is first time they have done so. That time limit has run out. Were looking at almost 20 hours. Why havent we heard anything yet . Most is psychological. They want to play the biggest affect they can. They know they have the whole world on edge specifically japan because they know that they can hold the whole Public Opinion in their hands. Also we see that in the past that they have wanted to magnify the media fact of these situations to get the maximum exposure. This is what were looking at. Phil what would be going on right now to explain the silence . I think hes right but there are other options out there. A couple of options. First is the security situation that led them to have to move the guys. Theres still a lot of fighting. I think theres an outside chance, very unlickkely but could be differences of opinions. I dont think so but a possibility. I also think theres chance there are negotiations under way that we dont know about. The japanese says they havent been able to make contact. I think theres a small chance. I would go back to barack said. This is a huge opportunity for them to do what it wants. To that point, phil they asked for 200 million. Obviously, it was a symbolic number. Its the amount of money japan has contributed to the fight against isis. Was that really the beginning of a negotiation. To be clear isis has negotiated before. They have taken money in exchange for releasing hostages. Would they ever have done that in this case . They mielgt haveght have. The 200 million is not a hostage negotiation figure. It allows them to take a step up like they did with the american hostages when they had videos with conversations from their perspective with the president of the United States. Theyre not talking to the families in this case. Theyre talking to the japanese government as an isis government about 200 million. Its not a hostage negotiation. These people are pawns in a political game. We know theres still a 26yearold American Woman in isis custody. I know youve been spoking with the family. Is there anything you can tell us . Well we need to not forget that theres an American Woman, 26yearold humanitarian aid worker whom ill call debra has been in captivity for almost 18 months. Theres a lot more the government can do to help secure her release at this point in time. To go back to what phil said. Isis is very strong. It knows it controls all the cards. It knows 200 million will never be on the table. They used this figure because the japanese government has offered 200 million to the countrys fighting isis. Japanese culture does not look favorably upon the hostages like in a city like france. I was surprised to see the poster of the four french hostages asking for their release. We would never see Something Like that in cedar rapids iowa and not in japan either. Next the woman barack is talking about. Isis holding one american hostage. The woman is 26 years old. Should the United States attempt to rescue her. Navy seal who says he killed bin laden joins me next. The nfl breaks its silence on the cheating scandal thats rocking football.

The terror group vowed to murder the two men if it didnt receive 200 million today. Just after midnight for the past three days scrambling desperately for way to secure the mens release. These discussions are taking place tonight in United States. The parents of a Young American aids worker are trying to free their daughter trying to free isis. What more have you learned about this young woman. This is something thats known but very little has been said about it at the request of her family. This American Woman, 26 years old. Shes been in captivity by isis for the last 17 months. She is an aid worker. She went to try to offer help. Youll remember james foley. His boss spoke out. Very rare opportunity about this woman and what has been going on. I want you to have a listen. I know the family of the young woman whos name has not been revealed. Its not easy to five three and five million dollars. Finding the ransom money, finding out who you pay it to who is holding their daughter. The agony of these families almost unbearable to contemplate. I know as you talk about the man there, he was saying they are desperately trying to raise the money. The amounts are incredibly difficult. The u. S. Government has a policy of not paying ransom. The u. S. Government does try to help americans. They have tried to rescue americans. We know they were not successful. How hard would it be to rescue this young woman . U. S. Military commandos did try to rescue some of the hostages several months ago. They thought they had good intelligence and stage a very dangerous highrisk rescue mission. It did not work. One of the biggest problems is having that perfect intelligence. Where are they being held. Where will they be the minute your helicopter lands . What kind of security from the militants is around them. When the military got to the place they thought foley and others were being held they found their intelligence was slightly off. The hostages had been moved sometime earlier. This is one of the biggest reasons some of these missions dont work. Sometimes they do. The risk is very high. Youve been through this many times times, what are they doing when it comes to this American Woman. What theyre doing right now is trying to gather as much intelligence on where she is the lines of communications. They are trying to listen to whats been said. Trying to gather human intelligence on the ground so they can attempt to rescue. How hard is it to get that information . I would imagine its pretty hard. Its going to be difficult with the lack of ground presence. A lot of it is controlled by isis. We dont have a lot of friendlies in there. Its going to be difficult. We have smart people trying to find where she is but it is hard. Theres been a number of high profile raids. The james foley mission, they went and found out they went too late. Intelligence was old. Sounds like what youre talking about. In yemen there was the american raid. Luke summers ended up dying. They went in. No one knows what went wrong but something happened. Why is it that these missions are so difficult . You have a lot of people involved in each of them on the ground. Theres lots of people involved. People that are gathering the intelligence and then theres everything from where youre going to stage where youre going to launch and how youre going to get there. Who are the pilots . What kind of aircraft . Into a difficult spot where there are bad guys early defenses. You need the deal with that and the noise of the dogs. Everybody in that case heard about the dogs. The dogs started barking. Thats what gave them away. People say how is that possible. You have the best seal teams in the world. They didnt think about the dogs. They did. In over 400 combat missions well one was at sea but the rest there were dogs barking. Its almost a thing it wouldnt wake them up because im not convinced dogs barking all the time. Youre suspicious of that whole argument. Talking about the mother in japan a and how shes apologizing to the japanese people and our reporter was saying theres some anger in japan. Why did you go there . Why did do you this to the country . All the hostages have been there by choice. Theyre people who theyre friends say they knew the risk. They did this because they wanted to but knew the risk. Youre going to go risk your life to save somebody who may be trying to do good but knew what they were doing. Did you ever have a resentiment . It is upsetting. Ive had a good friend that was in my team. He was killed trying to rescue an american doctor in afghanistan. Part of our issue is why are you going there. Obviously its nobel and they want to do the right thing and good hearted people. The problem is you need to have a realization that there are people that dont like you based on simply being a nonbeliever. They will kill you based on how you look. Its naive for many to think otherwise. The point is you go and do this any way. You put your life on the line. You lost a friend who went in for someone who, as you said trying to do good but knew the risks. They do no the risks. I wish a lot of them would be smarter. I commend them for that. Its not the best place to go right now. When you were there with bin laden and that raid. I know that you said you almost didnt want to know too much about the house or when you were going up the stairs because what if you went in and a wall was in a different place or something. You dont want to overtrain. Youve been on missions that have not succeeded in terms of the end goal. Whats the most common thing thats gone wrong . Nothing goes wrong. Things arent what you thought they would be. The wall was taller than you thought or place where you wanted to land was swamp or Something Like that. It could be. When we were doing somewhere its ten men and 30 women. Thank you so much. Thanks for having me. A king is buried. Many thousands gathered to tend the funeral. Of king abdullah. He died early today. He had been sick suffering from pneumonia. He was carried from a mosque to the burial site. It was a simple dirt and gravel king. A ceremony pledging new allegiance.

They claimed in separate press conferences they have no idea what happened. Something did in fact happen. The nfl has concluded while the evidence supports the conclusion that footballs that were under inflated use in the first half they were properly inflated for the second half. So who let the air out of the balls . Reporter after five days of headlines and controversy over deflate gate the nfl broke its silence. Officialed inspected them before the game. Now the question becomes how did the air escape the footballs and who, if anyone is responsible . The nfl says its been en investigating since sunday speaking with more than 40 people in and out of organization. On thursday tom brady said he had not yet spoken to investigators but he and held coach Bill Belichick insisted they had nothing to do with the under inflated footballs. I didnt alter the ball. In my entire coaching career i have never talked to any player staff member about football air pressure. I have no knowledge of anything. I have no knowledge of any wrong doing. Reporter several former player expressed skepticism. There wouldnt be an equipment manager that would deflate ball without the starting quarterbacks approval. I can assure you of that. Brady has his defenders. Tom is a big boy. He know how to handle all situations. Hell handle this with class. For him to be attacked the way he did, weve been attacked plenty of times. Its not our first rodeo. Reporter patriots owner robert craft is pledging complete transparency and cooperation with investigators which includes ted wells who wrote the nfls report on the Miami Dolphins bullying scandal. It took about three months and his inclusion will be a prolonged affair. Thats key since being able to say theres an Ongoing Investigation will allow the patriots and commissioner Roger Goodell to sidestep questions about it in the week leading up to the super bowl. That doesnt mean the questions wont keep coming. Rachel is here with me. Stay with me. We have a former nfl player who played for the patriots with tom brady under coach belichick. Let me ask you because he has his defenders. It seems like the people who know the most are saying nobody touches the footballs without the starting quarter back being involved. That seems to be the bottom line. The kicker is thats not proof. The lack of motive doesnt mean they have proof there was a motive. Until they find a person who they can say yes, this is the person that let the air out of the footballs, you can have all the things that point to someone on that sideline let out the footballs because we know the air didnt let itself out. Until you find a person that you can say, this is be person who did it and this is how they did it, you cant penalize them for it. I guess do you have to have the proof. Roxanne jones has written a piece. She says Roger Goodell should disqualify the patriots from the super bowl stiptherip the title. What do you think . On what grounds. Where is the information that says tom brady was altering the footballs after the allotted time that hes allowed to manipulate the footballs. Where is this investigation. Wheres the proof to show them this is why they should be they should not be able to play in the super bowl. They should be stripped. You have to show me proof. You got to have proof before you can prove somebody to be guilty. You cant base it off the patriots were in trouble before with the spy gate incident. Because of their past history, were going to say theyre guilty. All right. Something im shurpure a lot of people wish people wouldnt look at their past but they do. You know him. You played with him. Would anyone touch tom bradys footballs . Would anyone have done this without his approval . It clearly to happened to all the balls. Give me another scenario so people with see your side of it. What if the referees never checked the balls. They could have said we checked the balls. We made sure everything was good. In the report that they came out with the footballs dont leave the Officials Office until ten minutes before the game. They go on the field. Basically, whoever let the air out of the footballs had to do it in front of 75,000 people with all the cameras around ten minutes before the football game. Youd have to be pretty good to do that and youd have to be pretty sneaky to getaway from it. Im not saying the officials did it but they could have went in there and felt the footballs and said they are good. Theyre all at 12. 5 without putting a gauge in there. Thats not what the nfl has come out to said. They did release a statement saying that the footballs were specifically measured and that those footballs did meet the qualifications. Then the footballs go into the custody of the teams ball boys. The question is what happened once they went into that custody so that during the first half of the game when they were measured again they were under regulation. What happened there . The nfl says a lot of things that its done before in past and weve known it hasnt done some of those things. To me its about, we know in the report they said is that those balls are in the officials room until ten minutes before the game. Then they go out on the football field. What youre telling me and what everybody is speculating is tom brady had to tell his ball boy ten minutes before the game the balls will be out there. Take a pin and let out the air. That sounds ridiculous to me. That absolutely sounds ridiculous. What about rachel the penalty issue here which is what i dont understand. To me its either a big deal when you cheat or is isnt. You lose the title. In this case it turns out they cheated, if it is proven they pay a fine. They still get their hit it will and go to the super bowl. Clearly no one give a hoot about cheating many the nfl. The point you make about them going to the superbowl. Risk reward, they got their reward even if they did break the rules so who cares. If they are found to have done this and there is proof and someone knows that tom brady was involved and stood up in front of america and lie, i think the penalty will be significant. I think it will be more than just a fine. It will a hefty fine. I think you can see draft suspensions. They can get their investigation done in next few days so they cannot have tom brady play. Not wait until after the super bowl. Thats just not going to happen. Thanks to both of you.

A video that captured the moment a routine traffic stop escalated. 36yearold suspect was shot dead as he defied a Police Officers order. The mayor of new jersey and Community Leaders are speaking out. They are urging calm because they have prosecutors investigating. Alexander field is out front. Reporter 1 13 of video tape enough to show a Friendly Exchange turn deadly. It starts with a black jaguar pulled over in new jersey. In the end jerome reed is shot to death. We will have the right, if we find a conflict with any of the facts presented, to have the investigations findings and conclusion reviewed by the attorney generals office. Reporter for now there are calls for peace and patience while local officials try to determine if deadly force was justified. The naacp is confident that your office and that of our county prosecutor will ensure a fair thorough and transparent investigation. Reporter the shooting happened on december 30th. First the car is pulled over for running a stop sign. 22 secs later the officer draws his gun. Show me your hands. Dont you [ bleep ] move. Dont you move. Get him out the car. Got a gun in his glove compartment. Reporter he told the suspect seven times not to move then it escalated. Im going to shoot you. Youre going the be [ bleep ] dead. Im telling you. You reach for something you going to be dead. I not reaching for nothing. Keep your hands right there. Reporter he knows one of the men in the car. Police say day s one of four officers who arrested reed in august on drug charges and for resisting arrest. Jerome you reach for something you going to be dead. Hes reaching. Hes reaching. Reporter in 1995 he was convicted of firstdegree murder and served about 13 years in prison for shooting at new jersey state troopers. Show me your [ bleep ] hands. No you not. No you not. No you not. Dont move. The dash cam video shows the officer push ng the car door trying to keep it closed. The deadly shot is fired three seconds later when jerome gets out of car. His hands in front of him. Cnn legal analyst paul callan is out front. He told him seven times. Ghets out of car and his hands are up in the air. When you look at this was it justified in. I think when prosecutors put this kats case together, we should know this lesson from the Michael Brown shooting. Were seeing this from one angle. Thats the angle you see him with his hands up. Were not seeing what the officer saw as he was looking into the car. We know the officer pulled a gun out, presumely of the glove compartment. We know that the suspect, reed had served 13 years for attempted murder of a Police Officer by firing a weapon and we know that the officer had arrested him so would have known of his history of prior violence against Police Officers. He tells him seven times dont get out of the car. The most important thing is the cop is holding the door closed and the suspect pushes the door open and comes out. I think most people will say the officer was justified. Youre saying theres no case. What youre assumption this wouldnt go to a grand jury. Thats the investigation. It may very well. I can tell you in new york they all go to the grand jury. Its how the local prosecutor decided to handle it. I think the officer will be vindicated. Thank you very much.

Its expected to Shatter Box Office sales this weekend. The film had the largest january opening in history, taking 105 million. It follows Navy Seal Chris kyle who is considered the most lethal sniper in u. S. History. Tonight some of the stories are being questioned. Did he tell the whole truth . Reporter the legend of chris tile has grown to hollywood blockbuster levels. The man known as the american sniper is credited with at least 160 kills during miss four tours of duty in iraq. His story has made him a u. S. Military icon. The movie and the glorification of chris kyles life ignore some troubling stories. Chris kyle and his friends told a story that involved an incident that happened to him along this stretch of highway southwest of dallas. The story goes he was driving along, pulled into a gas station when two men attempted to carjack him while he sat in a pickup. He reached for a handgun and shot each man twice and they dropped dead. This is where kyles story takes a strange turn. When the Police Arrived and ran his drivers license they didnt get after a short conversation they let kyle go. He simply drove away. Its a story kyle told muni. He said kyle claimed there was video of the shooting but muni could never verify the story. He said he went to every gas station on that stretch of road across three counties asked local and state Law Enforcement officials but nobody has ever verified the incident. So ultimately what it comes down to is he it was either a joke that he didnt say was a joke. He was lying for some reason that we dont know or it was evidence of an enormous conspiracy that no american is going to feel comfortable with. We dont know. The fact is he was killed and theres no possible way to get an answer from him now. Reporter kyle also bragged that after hurricane katrina, he and another sniper went to new orleans and shot 30 armed looters from the rooftop of the super dome. Lieutenant general russell honerai spearheaded in those days. Trust me we would have known about it and i can assure you, no federal forces or anybody from the armed forces was there doing any sniper work. Reporter chris kyle also boasted of punching out former minnesota governor jessie sven tur ra for allegedly making remarks about navy seals in iraq. Bragged about it openly on the anthony radio show. You slugged him good. I punched him. Where did you punch him . In the face. Reporter he said it never happened and sued him for defamation. He awarded nearly 2 million. The case is under appeal. We asked a spokesperson for chris kyles wife to help shed light on these stories, any details that might explain kyles frame of mind. But the spokesperson simply said she was not available to speak with us. Spoke at funeral alluding to the tough and emotional roller coaster of their lives. I dont need to romanticize chris because our reality is messy, passionate full of every extreme emotion known to man, including fear compassion anger, pain. Its a pretty incredible report. Is there any explanation as to why chris kyle may have made these stories up or exaggerated them. Reporter i think thats what left people confused and baffled. You talk to someone like Michael Mooney who talked to chris kyle before he died said he was a fascinating figure. Comes from a military background. Said chris kyle had nothing left to brag about. Had an exemplary career and extraordinary life and i think thats why so many people have been kind of baffled by when they hear these stories and this aspect of his life which isnt covered in the movie, obviously.

It doesnt print text it prints braille. 15 Million People in this world today who are blind and 90 of those people live in undeveloped countries, a normal cost for a braille printer is 2,000 onwards. Reporter he set out to prove one could be made a lot cheaper. The printer was made with a lego mind storm kit you could buy for 350 and on the box, you can make robots and other contraptions here but shaban clearly had other things in mind. How long did it take to build this . About a month after trial and error, a lot of times. Reporter so much trial and error, his mother told him to move on. He became obsessed. Sometimes staying up until 2 in the morning and she worried about him keeping up with school. I think he was breaking his seventh marble i was ferment.

And i screamed to my mom. I said mom, i can do this. It works now. I was a little embarrassed i was not supporting him that much, but at the end of the day, yeah i was very proud.
