Execution of hostages held by isis, including the beheading of three americans. Tonight Mark Phillips in london tells us who he is and what we know about him. Reporter hes the masked face of isis in all its brutality, and now he has a name. The executioner nicknamed jihadi john, who figures in at least five gruesome beheading videos is really Mohammed Emwazi, a 27 yearold College Graduate from london. His accent was first hint. This is james foley, an american citizen of your country. Reporter for months, as isis romped across syria and iraq british and American Anti terrorist officials were known to be aware of the masked figures identity, but they refused to release it presumably because they were trying the trace his links to other isis figures. Armed with a Computer Science degree from londons westminster university, emwazi was already on the Security Services radar. When he flew, he said for a safari vacation, from london to tanzania in 2009. There he was stopped by british and local officials who accused him of trying to go to somalia to join the alshabaab militants. He was sent back to amsterdam for more questioning before returning to london. And while he lived in this house with his family, he was watched, until 2012 when he disappeared and showed up with isis in syria, where he became the man with the knife, and in Islamic Militant circles, something of a recruiting tool. Terrorism expert shiraz maher. Hes become a huge character to the International Community of what we call fan boys and fan girls that support the Islamic State virtually. So jihadi john is a celebrity to them. Reporter some even tried to justify his behavior. Asim qureshi, of a group that deals with people under anti terror surveillance, says that he knew emwazi and that he became radicalized because he was harassed. He was such a beautiful young man. Really. You know, its hard to imagine the trajectory. Reporter for the families of isis victims, its hard to imagine the horror, even when it has a name. Now that Mohammed Emwazi has been identified, scott, victims families are demanding justice. Pelley Mark Phillips in the london newsroom. Mark, thanks. Here in the u. S. , Law Enforcement is tracking a cleric who they say is influencing isis followers from his home in michigan. Homeland security correspondent jeff pegues looked into how social media is inspiring jihad. Its very easy to go on youtube. Reporter Ahmad Musa Jibril was a palestinianamerican cleric whose extreme views caught the attention of u. S. Law enforcement. His alleged call for jihad in 2005 led federal prosecutors to describe him as man who encouraged his students to spread islam by the sword, to wage a holy war and to hate and kill nonmuslims. In 2012, he was released from federal prison after serving six years for insurance fraud. Hes currently living in dearborn, michigan, where hes on probation. Even under Law Enforcement supervision, hes become one of the most influential figures for western foreign fighters. According to british researcher Peter Neumann we counted their likes, their mentions, their follows, and what would turn out to be true is that Ahmad Musa Jibril is like an astonishing percentage of foreign fighters. Reporter according to neumanns research, 60 of west ern born foreign fighters were following him on facebook, favoriting his tweets and re tweeting his messages. Last year a federal judge heavily restricted jibrils ability to use social media. As a result, his accounts have gone dormant and yet his Facebook Page has grown from 211,000 likes last year to 245,000 today. There were hundreds, maybe even over 1,000 messages i got from social media. Reporter jibril declined our request for an interview. His probation ends in one month. Without new charges, hes free to go back online without restriction. Hes toned down his rhetoric. Suggesting maybe hes changed man. Some arent convinced. Theres nothing to suggest that he has changed his views. Hes toned them down because he realizes that if he doesnt tone them down, they will come after him. Reporter and this is the dilemma that Law Enforcement deals with every day in this country, how best to identify potential threats who may mask their true intent, but, scott, social media can also help Law Enforcement. It can give important clues about who and where extremists might be. Pelley jeff, what are some of the things the f. B. I. Does to monitor these people that they dont have any reason to arrest . Reporter well, scott, in the early stages it could be as simple as monitoring social media. Thats something that could escalate to monitoring emails texts and phone conversations. All of that under court orders. The f. B. I. Looks at hundreds of people who may have terrorist leanings and opens investigations into some of those cases. Now, the f. B. I. Director just yesterday confirmed that the bureau has now opened investigations in all 50 states. Pelley but after Edward Snowden there has been a lot of concern about government surveillance. I wonder what intelligence officials are saying to themselves . Reporter well, scott, Law Enforcement has been very, very public about the damage they believe Edward Snowden caused to intelligence gathering in this country. The director of National Intelligence James Clapper has said that snowden caused significant damage, a significant blow to National Security by exposing and compromising intelligence gathering tactics. Pelley jeff pegues in the washington newsroom tonight. Jeff, thanks very much. Well, as if they were finding new ways to express depravity, today isis posted video of an attack on a museum in mosul.

Across the south this morning, more than 180,000 homes and businesses were without power, most of them in the carolinas, where we find vinita nair. Reporter this is the scene above durham after last nights storm. Four inches of snow fell in this part of the state, even more in the hardesthit regions of the south, enough to snap tree limbs and fracture power lines. Today crews were dealing with the cleanup, like this utility pole that splintered under the heavy weight of the snow. Can you tell me when the power will be back on . Reporter jay simmons is directing part of the 1,000 person emergency team, helping to restore power. Hes on a 16hour shift. Thats a big storm anywhere 200,000 people, but hopefully a lot of the problem will just be the trees and we can clear them. Reporter Coleman Brown is with the Durham Department of public works. The snow was coming down so hard, it was really difficult for us to keep up.

In tennessee, drivers were stranded on i24 for hours overnight. More than 1,400 flights were either canceled or delayed. In north carolina, the roof of a stable buckled, trapping the horses inside. Here in henderson, they also have plenty of cleaning up to do, including the roof of this newly renovated gas station, which also crumbled under the weight of the snow. Scott, throughout the region conditions improved significantly, which would be great news if it wasnt expected to freeze again here tonight. Pelley vinita nair covering the big chill for us. Vinita, thanks very much. This was a rare sight off of massachusetts. Waves of slush washed ashore on nantucket island. The water temperature there is below freezing, but sea salt and the motion of the ocean are keeping it from going solid. One thing heating up today is the race for the white house. Republicans are auditioning at the annual conservative Political Action conference in maryland, cpac for short. And our nancy cordes is there. Reporter there are few places besides a debate stage where you can find every single g. O. P. Hopeful. But cpac is one of them, an annual gathering of thousands of conservative leaders and activists. Texas senator ted cruz is right at home here. Obamacare is a train wreck. And thats actually not fair to train wrecks. Reporter for new jersey governor chris christie, its a chance to convince skeptics that hes further to the right than they think. Im prolife. I ran as a prolife candidate in 2009 unapologetically. I spoke at the prolife rally on the steps of the statehouse and vetoed planned parenthood funding five times out of the new jersey budget. Reporter winning over this crowd is critical because they reflect the views of most of g. O. P. Primary voters. In a recent cbs news poll, 65 of republicans nationwide identified themselves as conservative, including one third who said they are very conservative. Former Texas Governor rick perry and all the rest insist theyre still testing the waters. Where are you in your deliberations . Were just. Thats a good descriptive term, just a good deliberating.

Reporter in December Congress prohibited the city from spending any money to legalize pot, but d. C. Mayor Muriel Bowser says the voters had already spoken. So we would encourage the congress to not be so concerned about overturning what seven out of ten voters said should be the law in the district of columbia. Reporter two members of the House Committee that oversees the district told the mayor shes in willful violation of the law and demanded names of employees who worked on the initiative. Theres up to two years prison time, you lose your job there are fines involved.

So i have a lot of things to do here in the district of columbia. Me being in jail wouldnt be a good thing. Reporter as for jail time, it would be up to the attorney general to prosecute.

These are pictures of the evening news editorial meeting captivated by live llamas on the lam in sun city, arizona. Of course, we assigned one of our most experienced correspondents, dean reynolds. Reporter you really have to sympathize with a posse of wouldbe captors who try to deal with this pair. How do you catch a 350pound llama must have been the first question on their minds. The Maricopa County Sheriffs Office confirmed to cbs news that officers here had never had to deal with wayward llamas before, and that became abundantly clear as they launched their pursuit with all manner of hand signals and gestures, which the llamas basically ignored. Many misdirected attempts to lasso the animals what else would you use came next before they were finally caught, out of breath but unhurt. Its safe to say the folks at sun city have seen few afternoons like this one. According to authorities, the llamas had an appointment at the assisted Living Community as therapy animals, but they apparently thought better of the idea when one of the retirees got a little fresh, at least thats how bob, their handler explained it. What happened . What did you guys do . We took them to an elder home. We were letting them pet her. One of the older gentlemen wanted to pet her and she broke loose and then the chase was on.
