Fill bags with evidence. Anyone that wants this evidence can investigate it, please contact me. Reporter the Syrian Regime denies any involvement, but Idlib Province is a syrian rebel stronghold, regularly pounded by airstrikes by the regime and its ally russia. Suspicion will also fall on the regime because of an earlier chemical attack in august 2013. Thought to have killed hundreds. It was concluded at that was sarin. Russia denied it was responsible today. Its direct intervention in the syrian war has propped up the regime and helped it win back territory, but it hasnt come close to ending the conflict. And nightmarish scenes like these. The u. N. Chemical weapons watchdog has already begun investigating todays attack. Though the security situation inside syria will make gathering evidence difficult. Former National Security adviser susan rice acknowledges that she requested the unmasking of several americans caught up in the investigation of russian meddling in the president ial election but rice said shy never released that information to the press or anyone else.

Police are looking for a white or hispanic male about six feet tall with short hair. The Houston Chronicle is reporting that greenwood emailed officials recently and said he felt threatened by a man he targeted in a corruption investigation. But theyre not sure if its related to this deadly shooting. He was on the ground. And then i saw the cars coming very quickly. The deputies were coming. Reporter chief Deputy Clint Greenwood was gunned down shortly after arriving for work monday morning at the Harris County courthouse building in bay town texas, just outside houston. Police released this Surveillance Video showing a suspect vehicle, a small, darkcolored car. Greenwood was airlifted to the local hospital where he died. Any death is tragic, but its more tragic when its somebody whos sworn to protect the public. Reporter officers held a prayer circle in tribute to greenwood yards from where he was killed. I cant imagine anybody wanting to shoot Clint Greenwood. Reporter jim lightner works in the district attorneys office. From everything, it appears that it was an assassination, so it doesnt appear that it was a random shooting. Reporter investigators say the motive is still unclear. As far as whether or not he was specifically targeted or if it was because of the uniform i was wearing or because of the place he pulled up to in the morning. We just dont know that right now. First thing i thought about was his family and his wife and his kids. Reporter brian benkin worked with Clint Greenwood both as a defense attorney and prosecutor.

Many of the forgotten battles of world war ii occurred right off the coast of the united states. German submarines or uboats were sinking cargo boats before they could go to europe. One battle raged off the coast of North Carolina. Mark strassmann has the story. Reporter this story begins with a dive into history. At the bottom of the atlantic ocean. Top side, top side. This is gomez, request permission to open vents and dive. Dive, dive, dive. Reporter it will take about ten minutes for this twoman submersible named nomad to carry randy holt and me 1700 feet down to the ocean floor. Sonar guides us through the darkness below until we see this. Confirming we have a visual on the target. Reporter its the german uboat, u576, which has rested here since july 1942. The submarine was sunk while hunting cargo ships heading for europe in the war against hitlers third reich. This uboat had vanished, lost to history until researchers discovered its location two years ago. So the submarine is lying on its starboard side. Were looking at the keel all along here. Reporter we were there last august as we saw u576 for the first time in 74 years. Theres the anchor right there. Reporter its bow is unmistakable. You can make out the deck gun, a school of grouper guard the subs conning tower. You can even spot the periscope inside. The circular pattern is called the winter garden. Right in the middle is the offdeck gun. Reporter noaa photographed and scanned the vessel for a 3d image. It sits 35 miles from cape hatteras, North Carolina. A relic of a littleknown chapter in world war ii history. Tankers are hit and sunk. Victims of prowling enemy submarines. Reporter noaas superintendent studies maritime battles. Thats war coming right into our back yard. Reporter in 1942, uboats dominated the east coasts shipping lane. More than 80 cargo ships were sunk, and 1600 lives lost in the waters off North Carolina alone. And you can look right out here and see battles. Absolutely. Youd find oil on the beaches, debris, and sometimes youd find victims, remains that were washed up. Reporter most americans then never learned the scope of the attacks, but coastal residents knew. The War Advertising Council helped teach them one of the wars most enduring sayings. Loose lips sink ships. Somebody could die because of your careless conversations really began to gel with the american public. Reporter 93yearold louis siegel remembers loose lips really could sink ships. In 1942 he was a 18yearold cadet midshipman with a merchant academy. Uboats attacked his area three times. Reporter when you watched that first ship go down, it must have brought the reality of the threat home to you. When youre that young, you know youre going to live forever. Reporter and you have, which is the good news. Yeah. Dive one will be in nomad with randy piloting. Reporter underwater archaeologist joe hoigt is leading the expedition to study not just u576 but the target, the cargo ship blue fields. Both sank on july 15, 1942 in a convoy battle lasting just minutes. Today predator and prey lie side by side on the ocean floor, only 240 yards apart. Both of them together, thats really whats unique about this particular area. We have the remnants of both elements of a convoy battle. And it encapsulates that idea of a battlefield. Reporter everyone aboard blue field survived. But no one knew for sure what happened to the crew of u576 until the Expedition Team saw this. All of the u boats hatches are sealed. 45 german sailors are entombed inside. Theres one particular picture of these guys on the conning tower, and theyre looking through binoculars, and one of thems got sort of a goofy pair of glasses on. That guys binoculars are in there, that guys glasses are probably inside this steel tube. Reporter it represents how close the war came to mainland america, which is why noaa is working to make this part of a National Marine sanctuary. I see gettysburg as a national park, shiloh, antietam. This is our opportunity to say publicly and acknowledge that the people who fought off the coast of North Carolina, that effort is appreciated and will be remembered.

Its said to be flawless, and the sales price smashes the previous record of 57 million for a diamond sold last may. If you dont have the money for diamonds, how about a collection of monstersized crystals . Reporter seattle, washington wears its Natural Beauty out in the open, but the views can be just as stunning indoors if you know where to look. In a neighborhood not far from the space needle, theres a warehouse that looks like mother natures private museum. For security reasons, they wont allow us to show the exterior, because inside there are these. Giant crystals. Some the size of a compact car. And perfect formations, brilliant white or clear as glacial ice. When i think of crystals, i think of those little dainty things that people wear around their necks. This is not one of those. Reporter collector Richard Burger found this one in namibia. This is 7,000 pounds. Reporter he has spent his adult life, and he says most of his money, chasing the biggest, most perfect specimens he could find and is especially proud of these, concretions, formed into fantastical shapes when ancient hot springs suddenly cooled. Its almost like liquid that suddenly froze. It went from water to rock in minutes. Reporter and what may be more amazing is how his rocks transformed him. In 1968, he was a philadelphia medical student on a road trip across america when he happened across a tiny shack in wyoming with crystals for sale. It was the most beautiful thing i had ever seen. And i was completely changed by it. Reporter so enchanted, in fact, that he dropped out of medical school and basically roamed the earth buying the biggest and most startling things ever dug up. This is amazing, because it looks like someone made this. This is a photographic memory of life on planet earth, 52 million years ago. Reporter its actually the fossilized bottom of a tropical lake imprinted with ancient fish around a palm frond dug up in what is now wyoming. And this crystal formation looks like it came straight off a superman set. This is krypton . This is krypton, also known as from arkansas. Reporter and theyve long been symbols of power. Look at the crowns used in british coronations. The archbishop lifts the crown of st. Edward and holds it above the queens head.

Miriam and her girlfriend were customers one day. He thought my friend was cute. He didnt really notice me. I made up for it though. Reporter they married in 1985. As their relationship grew, so did their collection. Are there times when you have to say, richard, enough is enough . Ive tried. I dont think im i have effective. Thats an understatement. Reporter hes managed to make a living selling a piece here and there, but most of their money has gone back into this collection, which they see has now become too expensive for them to keep. Yes, we need to sell, because otherwise, we have nothing. This represents a very, very significant investment, but that doesnt mean that we left enough for ourselves to live that comfortably, so we have our 15yearold car and no stock portfolio, and we dont own a house, and we live in a 315 square foot apartment. Reporter ba, ba, ba, ba, 315 square feet . Yeah. The crystals get 6,000 square feet. And we are sitting on the greatest collection of giant crystals in the world. Reporter theyre hoping to sell it all to someone who will keep the collection in tact and build a museum around it. Burger wont quote a price, except to say its in the multimillions. We had someone who wanted to come in, like six months ago who wanted to put it in the lobby of a new sheridan that were building. Reporter and you said . No. With 5 cents in the bank, i said no, because were trying to hold the integrity of the collection together. We dont want to sell off a ton of pieces. If that becomes improbable to sustain, you go all right, enough of this. Reporter but not yet. Not yet. Reporter after all, theyre not just rocks. To burger, theyre the foundation of a dream he wants to share with the world. Its a way of inspiring people. Its about inspiration. I think what the world needs right now more than just about anything is inspiration. Well, theyre still jumping for joy in North Carolina. This was the scene after they beat gonzaga. To capture the ncaa mens basketball championship. Reporter after losing in that title game last year in a buzzerbeating shot, North Carolina came back this year on a mission. They even called this season the redemption tour. The head of jackson, and the fivepoint lead no timeouts. Gonzaga. Reporter with only seconds remaining on the clock, North Carolina and their fans knew it was their time. This year the confetti is going to fall for North Carolina. Theyre not going to be denied this time. Reporter the tar heels victory was vindication after last years loss. That buzzerbeater defeat is now a distant memory. I say i want to enjoy it. I want to see the confetti fall on us. Were the winners. We came out here and competed. It came out to the last second, but were National Champs now. Reporter the game was sloppy at times, with officials calling more than 40 fouls, and neither team shot the ball particularly well. A few big plays and motivation throughout from coach roy williams resulted in the halloffamers Third National title of his career. We got three. I got these guys with me, and thats all i care about right now, my guys. We made our city proud. Reporter for gonzaga, the emotions just as strong. But theirs, the agony of defeat. Theyre on the brink of the national championship. You want to give that to your team and your program. You know, but at the same time, the other thing it just crushes you, because you dont get to coach these guys ever again. Reporter amazing part of this redemption story, Chris Jenkins was there in North Carolina because he just happens to be the brother of nate britt who is on the North Carolina team. He called it amazing. And North Carolina started this run in south carolina. That meant roy williams had a chance to talk to clemson hid football coach dabo swinney.
