case why can t they find this plane? well according to one expert i spoke with, if this plane is in the water that would drastically reduce the radius of the signal. if researchers are nowhere close they wouldn t detect it. carol? now we want to turn to someone who has a unique familiarity. welcome, sir. hello. thank you so much for talking with us. i just wondered, you were a long time captain of a 777 in malaysia. did you know the pilot of this doomed plane? can you say again? did you know the pilot of the downed plane? yes, i know. he was my co-pilot when i was flying on the 777 about 20 years
they made some recommendations but at the heart of it, carol, they said the law should stand. there needs to be some tweaks perhaps that s the case but an all out repeal the committee said no. interestingly, paul, mark o maro o mara, george zimmerman s attorney says stand your ground confuses jury. he wants to give judges the power to stop that. will that fix the problem surrounding this law, paul? well, i think it will make a little bit of a dent in it. there s a big misconception about the stand your ground law and that s something mark o mara was talking about. stand your ground is another way of saying you don t have the duty to retreat if somebody threatens to do serious bodily harm to you in a place outside of your home. and, you know, if you look at those two case the dunn case and zimmerman case, in the zimmerman case, of course not with
it. it s up to the will of the country to set it up dynasty. reporter: the secretary-general said now we have a real case where the world is speculating whether the stolen passport holders were terrorists while interpol is asking why only a handful of countries worldwide are taking care to make sure that persons possessing stolen passports are not boarding skberj fights. people use stolen passports for a variety of reasons. there s no credible link to terrorism but it hasn t been ruled out. pamela brown reporting live from washington. it was supposed to be one of the safist airplanes in the class. the boeing 777 has a near perfect record and is one of the most sophisticated jets on the market. how could flight 370 disappear without any communication whatsoever? we ll bring in our aviation and government regulator.
whether you are wanted or the passport is stolen. the country, the government does. according to interpol, last year alone, passengers were able to avoid planes without having their passports screened against interpol as data base. it con stains an astounding 40 million record of stolen documents. the 190 members that belong to interpol are not charge a fee for accessing any of the databases. if the country has sufficient resources and technical capability to wire into interpol s virtual private network that is running 24 hours a day, then they certainly would be able to access that database and check. it is just up to the will of the country to set it up and do it. interpol secretary, general, robl noble sa ronald noble says, now, we have a real case where they are asking whether they are terrorists.
interesting statistic are way up since stand your ground cases started to get publicized. so it s encouraging people to carry guns to act in self-defense. i think maybe the case that will make the difference and tell me if i m wrong is the movie theater case because if that defendant uses stand your ground it s just so egregious to most people i don t think throwing popcorn s-you know, threatening someone s life. zmu what, carol? there will be a lot of people out there that agree with that. the mass public support for that proposition including me. when does reasonableness turn to the point of ridiculousness? that s certainly if someone s life is in imminent fear that s one matter but to suggest that popcorn does you want is quite another. tissue comes down to is whether there s public support to get it done. do we have the climate now with trayvon martin s parents marching today with reverend al sharpton and jordan davis parents and miss olson the widow now.
