Lets get right to gabe gutierrez. Who leads our coverage from chattanooga, good evening. Reporter the fbi is on the scene taking the lead in the investigation.

Reporter police say around 10 35 this morning a gunman shot more than 20 rounds into this Armed Forces Recruitment center and drove seven miles to this navy and Marine Corps Center and opened fire again. You dont ever think it will happen where you live but it can happen anywhere. We are conducting this as an act of domestic terrorism. Reporter the chaos lasted half an hour. Four marines were killed, so was the gunman. Law enforcement officials identify him as Mohammod Youssuf abdulazeez. Its not clear whether he took his own life or was shot by police. An officer was shot in the ankle, several other people were wounded. It is incomprehensible to see what happened and the way that individuals who proudly serve our country were treated. Reporter the shooting spree prompted lockdowns at Chattanooga State Community college and a nearby hospital and even the State Capitol and Governors Mansion more than 135 miles away. The department of Homeland Security deployed a strike team and air space over chattanooga was briefly closed. Repeated constantly on social media.

It has taken the lead in the investigation and we get that part of the story from our justice correspondent pete williams. Reporter federal investigators swarmed to the house where 24yearold Mohammod Youssuf abdulazeez lived. U. S. Officials say hes the son of a chattanooga City Employee and naturalized u. S.

We expect probably by the end of the day, we will have several hundred fbi resources on scene to conduct this investigation. Reporter federal Officials Say tonight several factors point to the possibility that the attacks may have been terrorism, first the choice of targets, government buildings and military person in uniform. Isis has relentlessly urged followers to stage attacks against the military, federal government and anyone in uniform as the fbi director warned Congress Just last week. There is a group of tweeters in syria and their message is too prompt, come to the socalled cal fate and live the life of some sort of glory or something and if you cant come, kill somebody where you are. Kill somebody in uniform. Kill anybody. Reporter and several Officials Say there is indications this may be an act of foreign inspired terrorism but declined to offer specifics. Investigators are careful ly checking the gunmans car and looking at emails, phone calls, internet use and building a list of everyone he was recently in contact with. Tonight Officials Say they think abdulazeez act alone and they say they do not believe there was a warning this attack was coming but three days ago in a blog he said life was short and bitter and stressed the importance of gee hotjihad. Lester . To a major story were covering tonight, late word of a guilty verdict in the colorado Movie Theater mass cure trial. The jury deliberated for 13 hours before deciding james holmes fate for the mass shooting that killed 12 in 2012. His attorneys argued he was not guilty by reason of insanity.

Reporter james holmes shot 82 people inside a packed colorado Movie Theater three years ago killing 12 of them. His capital murder trial lasted two and a half months. The jury of nine women and three men considered thousands of pieces of evidence and testimony from 256 witnesses, including ashley who lost her 6yearold daughter veronica and unborn baby in the shooting. I was told that she had, that she didnt make it, that she passed away. Reporter in closing arguments the District Attorney said to reject holms claim he was insane and focus on his elaborate planning of the attack detailed in a diary. This guy walked into that theater and tried to murder everyone in it. Reporter defense Attorney Daniel king who admitted his client carried out the attack reminded the jury that every Mental Health expert who testified said holms suffered from some form of schizophrenia. You cannot divorce the Mental Illness from this case or from mr. Holms because the Mental Illness caused this to happen. Reporter the guilty verdict is a relief for many in colorado and especially for the family and friends of the 12 victims and hundreds of survivors of the Movie Theater massacre. The judge is still reading the victims inside the courtroom behind me. There are 165 of them, one for each charge. The jury rejected the insanity defense and now we move onto the penalty phase of the trial, which is expected to last about a month and after which, the same jury will be asked to choose between life in prison and the death penalty. Lester . Jacob rascon for us, thank you. A remarkable image today as president obama got a firsthand look inside this countrys criminal Justice System in a way no sitting president ever has. Walking into a federal prison. He met with a group of inmates at a prison in oklahoma. All of it to under score his recent push for criminal justiciary form. E form. For from our senior White House Correspondent chris jansing. Reporter it is a dramatic image, the first sitting president ever to walk the halls of a federal penitentiary looking inside cell 123 and calling for change. We have to reconsider whether 20 or 30 or life sentences for nonviolent crimes is the best way for us to solve these problems. Reporter hes talking about people like barbara, following a drug bust, she was sentenced to 30 years in prison leaving behind an infant daughter. I thought i would, to be blunt rae dead than deal with this. Reporter on monday president obama commuted the sentences of 46 nonviolent drug offenders like barbara. The u. S. Is the worlds biggest jailor, one out of every 99 americans is behind bars, the majority of them black of hispanic. At a cost of 80 billion a year. Reform is getting bipartisan support, today for the first time the speaker of the house got behind criminal justice legislation. I would like to see it on the floor. Reporter the president commuted barbaras sentence last year after 20 years 11 months and four days away from her daughter. I had to do it either nonexist or second hand and it was devastating. Reporter now barbara is in college and a president sitting with prisoners for a documentary says more people should have a second chance. These are young people who made mistakes that arent that different than the mistakes i made and the mistakes that a lot of you guys made. Thats what strikes me. There but for the grace of god. Reporter you can hear in the president s voice that this is a moral as well as legislative priority for him and when he went inside the cell in the prison behind me, he pointed out it would also help with overcrowding. The room just 9 x 10 he says it often has to now house three grown men. Lester . All right, chris jap sing jansing, thank you. Police here in the new york area are looking for whoever target add dozen commercial planes with a laser last night. All of those flights landed safely, but its the most recent example of what federal authorities call an especially dangerous activity that can blind pilots in the most critical moments in a flight. Tom costello reports reporter for pilots landing at newark wednesday night, a sudden green piercing light. We got a green laser shooting at us left wing. Reporter for 90 minutes one report after another. Were getting a laser at 10 00. Who . United 330. Reporter in all, 12 planes, 12 flight crews. I didnt get it straight in the eye, i saw it out of the corner of my eye and a few more times hit the top of the cockpit. Reporter surprisingly, it happens on average 12 times a day in the u. S. But last night, there were 35 reported cases and the problem is growing. In 2010, more than 2800 reports. Last year, nearly 3900. Police often launch helicopters in this case in florida, the Police Helicopter itself was lit up and officers tracked the person thought to be behind the laser. Very often, the suspect is male in teens or 20s. It could be somebody whose bored, somebody who got a brandnew laser, somebody who has a beef against an airline or pilot. Reporter the laser can light up the cockpit, making it impossible for pilots to see instruments in some cases causing permanent eye damage. The lower the plane is to the ground the greater the risk but the airlines say their crews know how to respond. They are trained to fly the airplane, first and foremost. Its a twopilot environment so they can transfer controls if necessary. Reporter the danger, insists the faa, is serious. They take this seriously. The penalty for pointing a laser at a plane is 20 years in prison and 250,000 fine, lester .

She seemed to be in pain. Reporter monday morning, officials said bland was found dead in her jail cell. The fbi and Texas Rangers are investigating. I will admit it is strange that someone that apparently seemed to have everything going her way would have taken her own life and thats what is very, very important that a thorough investigation is done. Reporter social media exploded with skepticism about the official account of her death. Black lives matter. Reporter bland herself used to post facebook videos called sandy speaks commenting on race in america. Her own death, her family says, would have been a likely topic.
