Harrowing hostage situation in the african desert. This morning, we have more information about an american killed by the islamic militants. And we know several other americans are in danger right now. Abcs investigative correspondent, brian ross, has been covering this from the jump. Hes with us, now, with more. Brian, good morning. Reporter good morning, dan. The death toll continues to climb with at least 1 american and 11 other hostages reported to have been killed. The algerian military has twice stormed the natural gas facility. But Authorities Say the situation this morning, is still not resolved. And a number of western workers, including americans, apparently remain hostages. The state department has now confirmed that 58yearold Fred Buttaccio of suburban houston, was killed at some point during the attack and subsequent rescue effort. But another american, mark cobb of corpus christi, texas, is now confirmed as safe. Cobb was the senior manager at the bp facility algeria. And sent a message saying, im alive. The Al Qaedalinked group claims the attack on the facility in the african desert, had been planned for some two months. In both assault, the Algerian Army, using tanks and helicopters, found the terrorists were heavily armed and prepared to fight to the death. One official described the aftermath as carnage. Hostages who escaped or were freed, said the terrorists only wanted westerners or americans, and were brutal in the treatment of some. It happened so fast. We were lucky that we are still alive and everything is good. Reporter another worker said he escaped as the terrorists tried to drive them to another location. And the Algerian Army opened fire on the convoy. American officials had urged the algerians to go slow, out of concern for the safety of the hostages. They didnt let the terrorists dig in. They didnt negotiate. They moved quickly. Reporter the attack has led the u. S. And its allies to marshal resources, to track down the alleged mastermind, this man, mokhtar belmokhtar, who operates from a safe haven in the northern part of mali, 1,000 miles away. French military aircraft were already active here, even before the algerian attack. According to abc news correspondent, bazi kanani in the capital. Theres much relief here in southern mali, now that more International Help is coming in to fight the jihadists trying to take over the country. One of the first targets for the french warplanes that arrived a week ago, was the headquarters of the leader of the terror group involved in the algerian hostage crisis. The u. S. Has said it wont send troops into mali. But it is sharing intelligence with france. And by monday, the u. S. Air force will be helping to fly in french troops and equipment. Reporter u. S. Officials say they will now work with the french and others to make sure belmokhtar pays a price. Those who would wantonly attack our country and our people, will have no place to hide. Reporter details about exactly what is happening this morning at the facility remains very sketchy. Not only to reporters who are being kept about 20 miles away. But also to government officials in washington, london and paris, who urge algerians to make the safety of the hostages their first priority. Wonder if theres tensions between the American Government and the algerian military this morning. Brian, thank you very much for your reporting. We appreciate it. There remains an information vacuum. Brian, thanks. We turn, now, to night two of Lance Armstrongs public confession to years of cheating, doping and lying to the whole world about it. Armstrong began to break down when he talked about his family. Abcs Neal Karlinsky has been all over this story from the very beginning and joins us with more. And, neal, in many ways, this seemed to be the more compelling of the two interviews. Reporter it certainly was. Good morning, bianna. Over the course of two nights there was plenty of evidence that armstrongs ability to lie is almost certainly still on display. But there was one moment when the person behind the attitude and the image broke through. Incredible. Unbelievable. Reporter when you peel away all the lies, the cheating, the coverups and bullying, Lance Armstrong is also a father. And that side to this complicated and deeplyflawed man revealed the betrayal to his family. When this all really started, i saw my son defending me and saying, thats not true. What youre saying about my dad is not true. I told luke, i said i said, dont defend me anymore. Reporter it was a painful glimpse into a man who apologized repeatedly for his big lie. And yet, somehow feels that his lifetime sporting ban is unfair. Never mind the fact that he ignored fair play at every turn. I deserve to be punished. Im not sure that i deserve a death penalty. If youre asking me, do i want to compete again . And answer is, hell, yeah. Im a competitor. Its what ive done my whole life. I love to train. I love to race. I love to tow the line. Reporter armstrong told oprah hes now in therapy and that he sees how, in his words, sick his actions sometimes were. This is heavy. And this is messy. And this is not something that i can sit with you and leave and go, okay. Were all good. Reporter and it isnt just some old version of himself. That arrogant twitter photo, boasting of his tour wins, even after he had been stripped, was just two months ago. That was more defiance. More defiance. You know whats scary, i actually thought it was a good idea. Reporter he acknowledged that his exwife, kristen, knew of his cheating. And encouraged not only to stop but to come clean. He never did, until he lost everything, and was backed into a corner. Will you rise again . I dont know. I do not know the outcome here. Reporter so, what now . Well, we know he is sporadically in therapy, he says. Hes in hawaii where he continues to train and play golf. There are reports this morning that a movie deal about his epic fall is now in the works. Quite a story, dan and bianna. Apparently j. J. Abrams looking into making that movie. Thank you, Neal Karlinsky, who has been covering this story for years. With us, now, one of Lance Armstrongs former teammates and friends, tyler hamilton, who himself has admitted doping. He wrote a book about it, called the secret race. Tyler, good morning. Thank you for coming in. We really appreciate it. You saw lance get emotional in that interview. Do you buy it . Its a first step. Its a first step. Hes coming clean. Hes telling the story that he has taken performanceenhancing drugs. Do you think it was genuine emotion that we saw . I think so. Its new for him. Its a new process. I went through the same process on a much smaller scale. You know, its going to get easier for him. I think hes going to open up even much more. You know, i think we saw a lot of the truths. Maybe not the whole truth. Telling his son to stop defending him now. 13yearold son. Was that real emotion . Youve known him for so many years. As a parent, was he telling the truth . The one thing, and i think a lot of his exteammates said yesterday, for me and guys like frankie andreu, weve never seen lance ive never seen him shed a tear in my life, until last night. Shown very little emotion. Before i heard one word on thursday night from him, i could tell he was a broken man. Really, really interesting, that perspective you provide there. He specifically brought you up last night and said you were one of the many people he needs to apologize to. He has attacked you for writing the book. And he said you were greedy and just doing it for the money. Are you ready for that apology . Will you accept it . I dont need an apology from lance. Im in a good place in my life. Ive moved forward. Im no longer angry at lance. You know, i moved on from that. Id rather he spend the time with his children or with betsy andreau, or emma oreilly. These are the people he destroyed. Theyre still suffering today. I feel lucky and fortunate i moved on from this. Its a tragic story. Im sorry that i was involved in all this. Yeah. Its not nice to see all this. And hes admitted to a lot of things these past two days. But one thing hes adamant about, he came back in 2009, a clean man. Do you buy that . Many people dont. I cant really be the judge of that. The jurys still out on that one. But again, the important thing is hes started this process. Hes opened up. He said all seven tours, he took performanceenhancing drugs. The question is, where does he go from this . He needs to go and name names. He needs to come fully clean and tell travis and usada, where the bodies are buried. We have a couple seconds left. Let me quick you ask you, he said he should be allowed to compete again. Do you agree . I agree only if he comes 110 clean. Open all up. Tell all of the names, from day one when he started doping, who provided it, when, where, and how, all the way to the end. Tyler, thank you very much. Thank you. That must be some sense of closure for you. A little bit. Its hard to see lance going through this. I dont like to see anybody suffer like that. A man who was there with Lance Armstrong. Up close and personal for many years. Tyler, thank you very your time. Great to see tyler move on with his life, as well. Indeed. And Ron Claiborne here with the other stories this morning. A compelling story there. Good morning to you, bianna and dan. Good morning, everybody. We are halfway through the flu season. It appears the worst may be over in most states. Federal Health Officials say this year is more severe than average. And the elderly have been particularly hardhit with a spike in hospitalizations in recent weeks. The flu is still widespread in all states, except tennessee and hawaii. But new cases are easing over most of the country, except for the far west. And lawmakers in washington appear to be on track to avoid another standoff on the nations debt ceiling. At least for now. Top republicans backed down from their hard line stance and say they will vote next week to raise the governments Borrowing Limit for another three months, without demanding immediate spending cuts. They are hoping the move will force Senate Democrats to get involved in the deficit reduction debate by passing a budget by april. And former new orleans mayor, ray nagin, who promised to crack down on corruption, has been indicted on corruption charges. Nagin is facing 21 counts, including wire fraud, bribery and money laundering. Abcs Mark Greenblatt has this story. Reporter indicted for corruption. The onetime former rock star mayor of new orleans, stands caused of becoming exactly what he campaigned against. This state and this city, is saying to the oldline politicos were tired of the games. Were tired of the corruption. And we want to go in a new direction. Reporter its a striking fall from grace for ray nagin, as the Justice Department now charges him with awarding lucrative city contracts in exchange for kickbacks and trips to vacation hot spots like hawaii, jamaica and las vegas. Hes accused of pocketing more than 200,000 in bribes. And the indictment even charges nagin with trying to pocket cash for himself, as the city struggled to recover from hurricane katrina. . One case, nagin awarded a 1 Million Contract to repair sidewalks. And the very next day, the winning business allegedly paid a nagin Family Member a 10,000 kickback. Just one of the many allegations now lodged against the man famous for criticizing the federal response to the storm. Get off your. And lets do something. And fix the biggest crisis in the history of this country. Reporter now, its the federal government that may have the last say with the former twoterm mayor of new orleans. Mark greenblatt, abc news, new york. It could be several weeks more before we get the autopsy results for the chicago Lottery Winner who was fatally poisoned with cyanide. The body of urooj khan was exhumed on friday, to help solve the mystery around his death. He died in july right before collecting his winnings. Police have not named a suspect. And those controversial fullbody scanners at airports, may soon be removed. The tsa say the scanners, which show a revealing image of a passengers body, will be gone by this coming june. The company that makes them could not come up with a way to protect peoples privacy, as required by a new law. A second type of fullbody scanner that does not produce the vivid images will still be in airports. And finally, an amazing rescue from a burning building. Take a look at this video here. As this firefighter in russia, gets hit with a chunk of snow. A huge chunk of snow, almost knocking him off the ladder as he climbs to try to save a family. Somehow, he grabbed the ladder to break his fall. It didnt happen twice. Thats a replay, by the way. Another firefighter pulls him up. Together, they were able to rescue the baby and his mother. Good job. Well done. Thats all i know. The pop quiz. Thank you. Language lessons and the news. Ron claiborne gives us the whole picture every morning. Thank you, ron. Appreciate it. It is the biggest event in washington. It happens once every four years. The countdown to inauguration is on. When president obama takes the oath of office on monday, the inaugural celebration will be nothing compared to what it was back in 2009 when he was sworn in. Abcs david kerley is in washington with more. Good morning, david. Reporter bianna and dan, this is my third one. It gets cold every time the president gets ready to take the oath. While the weather is going to be the same, this is going to be a much different celebration than the one four years ago. The barricades are up. The viewing stands, built. The finishing touches going on floats. Members of the military have already practiced parading. I, Barack Hussein obama reporter and the president says hes ready to take the oath for a second time. The theme of this inauguration is our people, our future. At last reporter beyonce and james taylor will perform. But this will be a very different affair. Four years ago, 1. 8 Million People filled the mall. Less than half that number, just 800,000, are expected this year. 4 years ago, nearly every 1 of the 29,000 hotel rooms here were booked. 7,000 rooms are available this morning. Only two inaugural balls, versus ten four years ago. All after an expensive campaign, a tough economy and four years. Just the moment that that was for the country, the first africanamerican president. And it was new for everyone. But you know what . There still is a level of excitement despite the numbers. As we move down pennsylvania avenue. Reporter already fortress d. C. Is taking shape, a lockdown, as the president talks to historians about hitting the right tones in what will be his last inaugural address. Despite the fact this is going to be a much smaller affair, its going to be a lot of excitement, as Anita Mcbride said. The number of people who will be here, nearly double who came to the second inaugural for president bush and president clinton. Dan and bianna . Still, that remarkable dropoff from the last time. David kerley, thank you very much. Stay warm. And our special coverage of the inauguration starts tomorrow on gma. And abc news live coverage of the ceremony on monday, starts at 7 00 eastern, with George Stephanopoulos and josh elliott coanchoring. A special edition of good morning america, live from washington.

With his trial about to begin, an alleged Business Partner is speaking out about a zumba dance instructor in maine accused of running a prostitution ring. Abcs John Schriffen joins us from kennebunk. Good morning, john. Reporter bianna, good morning. A judge has now cleared the way for the trial of the alleged booker, mark strong, to start on tuesday.

More than 100 names of clients who allegedly paid wright for sex. Police are making those names public. I thought she was a little i dont know. Not risque. But flirtatious at times. Reporter married for more than 30 years, and a father of 2, strong also admits, he had a sexual relationship with wright. Never became romantic. Reporter it was just physical . It was strictly physical. I have no comment. Reporter wright has been charged with more than 100 counts of prostitution, violation of privacy, and tax evasion. The indictment also alleges that wright secretly recorded over 100 hours of video with her clients, something strong denies knowing about. He denies any wrongdoing. But he says, he will spend the rest of his life apologizing to his wife. Im sorry for any dishonesty, for the intimate relationship that i had with Alexis Wright. Reporter as for Alexis Wright, the alleged zumba prostitute, her lawyer says shes innocent. Wright will have her chance to tell her side of the story when her trial starts in may. Dan . Bianna .

Well tell you about that in a few moments. And a big, new twist in one of hollywoods most enduring mysteries, the death of natalie wood. Theres a new investigation into the 30yearold case. Why is woods husband at the time, the actor Robert Wagner, you just saw there, why is he refusing to speak to police . The chapter just wont close, so many years later. And why is michael j. Fox apologizing to taylor swift, of all people . Find out what the actor and protective father said about the mere idea of the Country Music superstar dating his son. But were going to start with manti teo, the notre dame star player, leading them to the championship this year, all the while, telling the story of how he lost his grandmother and his girlfriend within six hours. Except the girlfriend, who was said to have died of leukemia, was never real. Ever since this story broke, people have been asking, was teo the victim or the perpetrator of this hoax . For the first time, teo is telling his side of this story, as he prepares for the nfl draft in florida. Our coverage starts this morning with abcs matt gutman, who is in miami. Good morning, matt. Reporter good morning, dan and bianna. Manti teo says it was a cruelly intricate hoax. That he was led to believe that he was in love with a woman, who suffered the death of her father, this terrible car wreck and then was diagnosed with leukemia. All of this spanning four years, hundreds of hours of phone conversations. It even involved accomplices. For the first time this morning, manti teo setting the record straight. For the record, once again, were you in any way a part of this . No. Never. Reporter the star notre dame linebacker, in hiding since the news of the socalled catfish hoax broke, confessing to our sister network, espns Jeremy Schaap. I even knew that it was crazy that i was with somebody that i didnt meet. And let alone, people find out that this girl who died, who i was so invested in, i didnt meet her, as well. So, i kind of, you know, tailored my stories to have people think that, yeah, he met her before she passed away. So that people wouldnt think that i was some crazy dude. Reporter she was lennay kekua, whom he called the love of his life, after announcing to the world, she died of cancer the same september day his grandmother passed away. According to teo, she was the cruel alchemy of one mans imagination. Several links in the information superhighway, would lead to this man. Ronaiah tuiasosopo. Teo says he didnt suspect anything was wrong until he received that phone call on december 6th. The woman claiming to be kekua, nearly three months after her alleged death. Said its lennay. And so, we carried on that conversation. And i just got mad. And i just went on a rampage. How could you do this to me . I ended that conversation by saying simply this. You know what . Lennay, my lennay died on september 12th. Reporter now, abc news did not reach tuiasosopo for comment. And we still dont know what motivated him to do this. Manti teo says he didnt fully believe this was a lie until three days ago, when tuiasosopo called him to apologize. Dan . Bianna . All right. Matt gutman, our thanks to you. And espns Jeremy Schaap was the only reporter to sit down with manti teo and speak with him exclusively. You spent 2 1 2 hours with manti. This was an audio interview. Can you tell us what his demeanor was like . I have to say, i was very impressed. Throughout our interview, he was very composed, collected. He never hesitated. He answered every question i asked. We were in there, i think you said, 150 minutes. By 1 count back at our office, he was asked more than 300 questions in that time. He never demurred. You sat with him for 2 1 2 hours. Did you walk away with the impression that he was part of this hoax . Or he was purely the victim of the hoax . He convinced me that he was not party to this hoax. People will have to make their own judgments, once they read a lot of material from the interview that were posting online and presenting on shows today on espn. But you know, there were certainly occasions on which he admitted to misleading reporters over the course of the last few months. He said that he had lied to his father about meeting lennay kekua in person. And those were some of the discrepancies, some of the conflicts that people pointed to over the last few days. And i think he went a long way toward explaining some of those discrepancies. But probably not to the satisfaction of everyone. And, jeremy, he may have explained some of the discrepancies. But you have to admit, this is such a bizarre story. What happens to him next . Will he be drafted by the nfl . Or will teams shy away from him now . Well, theres no doubt that manti teo is going to be drafted. And i think theres little doubt hell be drafted in the first half of the first round. Whether he will be a top three or four pick, as he was projected by some to be i mean, if his story is out there, and people believe his story, it will not affect his draft position. He will be a millionaire very soon. And even if some of those nfl executives dont believe it fully, hell still be a millionaire very soon. Jeremy schaap, with the First Exclusive interview with manti teo, at the center of such a big controversy this morning. Jeremy, a big thank you to you. Helps explain a lot of things. People are wondering who knew what and when . I think the next shoe to drop is when this young man, ronaiah, who is allegedly the perpetrator of the hoax. If he comes out and speaks, that will explain a lot. Time for a check of the weather and over to ginger. Hey, ginger. I want to start in florida because theres a highpressure system just off the east coast here, in the atlantic. And its going to shove back some moisture, right into the southern part of florida. So, a little showery this morning in miami. We have a live shot to give you an idea of what the skies look like. Its that. A little fog. Lowlying cloud cover. And a whole lot of rain drops.

Her husband, Robert Wagner, one of the last people to see her alive. And now, with her case reopened, police say wagner is refusing to speak with them about it. Abcs Clayton Sandell has the story. Reporter its the hollywood tale of one mysterious night. Actress natalie wood died in 1981 on a boating trip, with husband, Robert Wagner, and fellow actor, christopher walken. What we think is, she went outside and slipped on the swim step and hit her head. Reporter the case was closed, accidental drowning. But reopened just a year ago, when the captain came forward. He claims that wagner and wood were in a heated argument before she died. They went to the state room. And they carried on arguing in the state room. Reporter the latest plot turn, the justreleased coroner report says that wood had scratches and fresh bruises on her arms and legs. The manner of death changed from accidental, to undetermined. Hes the last person to see her alive. Reporter investigators want to question wagner again. But hes refusing to talk. Back then, gave him a brief interview. And he never told them exactly what happened on the boat. I mean, later on, in his book, he wrote a different version of what he told them back then. Reporter wagner, famous for tvs heart to heart and his turn as an austin powers villain, is not a suspect. His attorney says, mr. Wagner has fully cooperated over the last 30 years. And has been interviewed on multiple occasions by the l. A. Sheriffs department. And has answered every, single question asked him during these interviews. Hes like a missing puzzle piece. Reporter a puzzle piece in a key role for a mystery that may have another sequel. For good morning america, Clayton Sandell, abc news, denver. Those are tough words from the sheriff.
