eastabrook. >> you are worried about your other kids? >> yes i am. especially my daughter that walks to school every morning by herself. i have a son that gets on the bus every morning. i can't walk her because they go to school at the same time. so i'm really worried for my daughter's safety too in the morning time. >> reporter: the violent weekend has left chicago's parents on edge. and on the police superintendent's mind. carey mcoscar thy. during a graduation ceremony for new recruits. >> we've had unfortunately a bad week. it doesn't wipe out what's happened over the past few years but it's a wake up call, we have a lot of work to do. >> violence is down, 10%, overall crime was down 10%.

while an unusually cold winter could be part of the reason mccarthy credits more police on the streets and a program that hones in on those who are most likely to be victims of violence. rosalyn c. spire. >> i'm earning and going to work and doing something. it's real critical that the kids see their parents working that the parents have jobs. >> minny johnson says she wants to leave but doubts she can go anywhere that's less violent.

>> bob johnson served as mediator and negotiator for dean gangs. welcome. >> thank you for having me. >> is all this related to gangs? >> some of it is cliques and some is retaliation. >> you believe you have the answer to some of this. can you explain? >> well, we work by changing the kid's mindset and getting them focused on other alternatives. how to deal with conflict resolutions, anger management and how to do with the stress of trauma from knowing that their friends and loved ones -- and we current approach it from the health department. >> the lives of how many kids can you impact? >> each one of those 15 have approximately 15 clients that they work with on a daily basis.

so we're close to 100 plus kids that we're working with. and this summer we're hoping to employ about 200 kids through our program and to get them in and through our parenting program sponsored by the state of illinois to get some of their parents also working as parent mentors. >> how do you measure success? >> like the police department, violence goes down and our strategic beats that we have been assigned to. >> is success getting them a job, is that also success? >> well, that's the success. and it's also start teaching them about the responsibility of going to work and being are responsible to your employer. >> you know, i mean, you know a lot more about this than i do. but clearly gang violence is about a lot of things. but what do you think gang

violence is really about? >> i think really at this point, it's really not about drugs. other activities thash going on -- that are going on. the young people they're board, economics of the community. if you go out to the community is a lot of poverty. how we change that is getting them employed, making them tax paying citizens, instilling pride in thyself. >> how do you get these kids to trust you? >> by keeping their work, being there for them. they have often been told i'm going to do this, i'm going to do that. part of the things that we've been successful with is keeping our word to them and to their parents, being there when we say we're going to be there picking up the phone when they call. >> what do -- what

responsibility do the parents have? >> not the teachers, not the priests, the parents brought these young people into the world. they're responsible to raise them. we are helping the parents to make sure the kids stay on the narrow road. >> there are about 100 kids or more that you work with. what's the need though? >> the need is, you can't send them sometime, a lot of our kids have been child abuse, a lot of them are from dysfunctional families. a lot of them need various types of medication. and they need education and jobs. we keep saying those two go hand in hand. education and jobs. >> bob jackson, good luck to you. thanks for joining us tonight. we appreciate it. >> and thank you guys for having us. >> questions night about how a 16-year-old was able to sneak onto a runway in california, climb into a wheel well of a jet

liner and head to hawaii. the teen's odyssey started in san jose where they think he jumped the fence after dark and got on amani boun aman -- a maud flight. now to the crisis in ukraine and new accusations of the state department. the russian military and intelligence forces paid to stir up unrest. the images cannot be independently verified but they were taken to the internet by ukraine diplomats. today, the u.s. began another diplomatic push to help ukraine's interim government. vice president joe biden is in ukraine tonight.

to help the international monetary fund. but pro-russian separatists are in eastern ukraine. jacky rowland has the story. >> vice president joe biden is expected to reiterate the respect for the government in kyiv as it deals with the rebellion in the east by pro-russian activists. the deal reached in geneva last week calls on these activists to come out from behind their barricades in exchange for greater autonomy. heightened tensions and mistrust between the two sides. pro-russian activists have called on russia for help. it concludes it has no other

choice but to intervene. >> we have been put in a very difficult position but those who are deliberately leading to the start of a civil war are engaged in criminal policies. we are not just going to condemn them, we are also going to curb these policies. >> but there are still plenty of people in the east who want to remain part of a united ukraine. a few of them held a rally in the small town of khartsyzk. they wanted to know why a russian flag was flying on top of their town hall. the splits in this small town reflect the divisions in the region as a whole. these people see the visit by vice president biden as further interference in ukraine. they want self governance and they trust only russia to help them achieve it.

jacky rowland, al jazeera in eastern ukraine. we hear more about reported u.s. drone attacks in yemen. dozens of fighters were killed in a major al qaeda camp. according to yemeni officials, three al qaeda leaders are said to be among the 55 people killed. question about the use of drones have been a hot but on item for years. just today the obama administration has to publicly disclose its justification for sending unmanned weapons for killing u.s. citizens suspected of overseas action. richelle carey has the story, richelle. government documents about a yemen drone strike that killed a high ranking al qaeda liter in

2011. he was also a ben american. went into hiding in yemen once the allegation he surfaced. that is where he was killed in a u.s. drone attack on september 30th, 2011. at least one other american, an associate of his, was also killed. the u.s. government admit to the attack but refused to hand over documents about the highly controversial program. the u.s. appeals court says there is a right to know of u.s. citizens suspected of terrorism overseas. >> the government's own policy, reports have repeatedly shown that civilians may in fact have been killed by targeted killing strikes abroad. so there are serious questions that the government needs to answer, and this opinion today

is really an important first step in uncovering the government's legal and factual claims. >> release the drones said the queen. >> the 2011 attack sparked outrage. rand paul accused the administration of denying americans due process. paul expressed concerns that these deadly flying robots could be used against u.s. citizens on american soil. drones have become a go-to weapon in the mountains it expanded to pakistan and continues to this day. according to the nonprofit think tank based in washington there have been about 5th drone attacks in pakistan and yemen. 500 americans have been killed almost 400 of them civilians. john that's largely because of a

single drone strike it happened in december at a wedding in yemen. >> all right richelle, thank you. now to boston and the marathon. thousands of runners were there, many paying tribute to the victims. john terret has more. >> there is the line, he's across. >> an emotional marathon one year after the bombings as an american won the elite race. 38-year-old meb keflezighi from san diego came in a little over 2 hours and 8 minutes. the first time an american has done it since 1983. >> and she's got it. >> in the women's elite, 34-year-old rita jeptoo won. the 118th boston marathon went

off without incident. many fun runners, lining the route, estimated to be a million strong. >> meaning like obviously none other and it is just great to be here to be able to participate in that. >> it just meant so much to really race everybody who wasn't able to do it before and just for everyone that really experienced the tragedy that happened last year. >> i just wanted to be here this year, all about running, running this year for boston and for the race. as people said it brought the race back to the runners and that's what it is all about. >> reporter: and that was the feeling that radiated across the whole day. and on boston common where runners come to gather their belongings. a panel the from all over the country. friend appalled at the months of

life they saw last year. >> we started with one canvas 16 by 18 feet, we invited people to paint a picture write a message. america embraced it and from america, the world embraced it and we have every state and the united states represented as well as 50 additional nations. >> so now it's over and the city of boston can move on. never forgetting the dead, always carrying for the injured. with an american victory to help it on its way. john terret, al jazeera boston. >> coming up next, how did he do it? the stow away who clung to the landing gear on a flight to hawaii. you may be surprised about what our medical expert says about it. and into thin air. they risked their lives and paid the ultimate price. for guides on mount everest. what it means to be a sherpa.

>> by now, you've probably heard the story of the 16-year-old boy who flew from california to hawaii in the wheel well of a 767. it's an incredible tale apparently completely true, at least according to the fbi. how did this young man endure 30

thousand feet. jake ward. >> above 10,000 feet the faa mandates that any pilot left alone in the cockpit has to wear an oxygen max. hypoxia could set in that's lack of oxygen to the brain and render somebody useless at the wheel. past 26,000 feet eventually it will kill you because you simply cannot breathe in enough oxygen over time to replenish what your brain needs. the second factor is cold. at 35,000 feet which is how high these planes fly, you're going to have an ambient outside temperature of negative 65

degrees. how is it possible that this teenager could have survived 35,000 feet at negative 65° fahrenheit? well, he's not the first. there have been instances in which people have survived this experience. so many that the faa actually did a study in 1993 on the very subject. they surmised that it might be possible that ambient heat might come off the wheels. they pick up a certain amount in takeoff because of friction, they go up into the bay and you're up there with them and this keeps you alive for a little while. plus once this runs out and you are at that point already unconscious because you're high enough up that oxygen's run out and you've been knocked out. you'll be then unconscious and slowly brought into hypothermia because your body temperature will drop. medical science actually uses that to treat people who have had cardiac arrest to try to stave off stroke and now even

they'll reduce your temperature to 70° in order to credit preserve you to do trauma surgery on you. it is possible to come back from those low temperatures. it may be the faa surmises that the central nervous system is put into hypothermia. you are slowly revived by the resumption of oxygen and you can recover. the two examples is from a warm destination to a warm destination that might help explain it. the tragedy of this even if you were to survive very much a lot of the time if you regain -- when you get back down to a survival temperature, and the wheel well opens up again you're still unconscious, you're rattling around loose in here and you fall out of the plane. that has happened a number of times. it is a miracle and i mean that in the most technical sense,

this kid could have rattled around in the wheel well and got out of the plane and surviving and going to make a full survival. that's an amazing amazing thing. get back to the question, how could this happen? doctor it's good to have you again. >> good to see you too john. >> do you buy that description from jake does that make sense medically? >> it does make sense, it's a partial explanation. i agree with him there's something miraculous on a couple of frobts. first of all -- fronts. this teenager was experiencing some of the symptoms of lack of oxygen. he was unconscious for most of the flight. you can fall into a coma you can die from that itself. he was already experiencing those symptoms then the other thing we talk about is forced hibernation.

humans aren't really meant to hibernate. people do survive that, some people who are drowning victims or skiers buried alive under the snow, they are more likely to survive in cooler temperatures than warmer temperatures. but this boy didn't have any symptoms of frostbite, didn't have symptoms of hypothermia so it's miracle ow miraculous he dt experience these things. >> you've talked about oxygen clearly the higher up you get the lest oxygen you have. >> you cocould have a lot of fluid escape from you and that could cause other problems. problems with your breathing with your circulation, the swelling around the brain could cause you to have fatigue, it can cause you to have seizures or go into a coma and die. >> back to hibernation for a moment mere. you say we are not capable of

hibernation and yet there have been these instances especially where people their bodies get very cold where it appears that's what happens right? >> it's not that we're not capable it's that we're not made for that as opposed to bears. people do survive these things but more of a miracle not a common thing. the reason we think that is if your body slows down because of the cold that you're in a sort of froans state, you are not using oxygen to keep your organs working. if there's not enough oxygen around you may be able to survive that at least for some time. but even in those cases where we have people in these artificial forced hibernation state, in extremely cold temperatures we still warm them pretty slowly because there is a lot of damage that can occur if you warm people up if they've been hypo thermic he cooled down pretty quickly and warmed up pretty

quickly. he was still experiencing symptoms he was still confused. there are aspects of how this was miraculous here. >> any other factors that contributed to him surviving this five hour flight? >> i think perhaps his age was a factor. if he was older had other medical problems those might have contributed as well. the stress of all of these things on someone who has lets say heart disease or other medical systems it might have been -- medical symptoms might have been understandable. warmth from the landing gear, other factors, but all the things that could have gone wrong in this scenario it is a miracle that he survived. >> it is a remarkable story. doctor good to have you on the program, thank you very much. and coming up targeting civilians. south sudan. graphic images. but a story that needs to be told. tonight we take you inside the

war torn country. plus going to pot. a surprising look at the marijuana laws in the united states and what states may be next to make it legal. >> results of analyses were skewed in favor of the prosecution >> the fbi can't force the states to look at those cases >> the truth will set you free yeah...don't kid yourself >> the system has failed me [ grunting ] i'm taking off, but, uh, don't worry. i'm gonna leave the tv on for you.

>> welcome back to al jazeera america. i'm john siegenthaler in new york and there is more coming up this half hour. ethnic massacre. shocking stories of murder tonight from south sudan. also, kinder gentler politics, candidates rely on humor to get their points across. they're the best of friends, actors patrick stewart and ian mckellin are put to the test to find out how much they know about each other. richelle carey is here. richelle. thr36 wounded in chicago

oaferred thoverthe weekend, manm children. vice president joe biden will be meeting with ukraine's interim government to discuss aid from the u.s. the new package will likely include technical assistance but not money. the top u.s. ambassador in ukraine has days not weeks to follow through with promises. boston marathon, an american from san diego won the men's title. first american in more than 30 years to win the title. >> fitting. richelle thank you. disturbing news out of south sudan where the u.n. says there's been a massacre, in a

town recaptured from rebels, 200 people hiding in hospitals churches and mosques. anna covell has this report, a warning including pictures that are disturbing. >> no preparation for what was to come. there was so many dead bodies, the construction equipment was used to move them. outside the gates of the mosque there was another pile of bodies, either dragged there or killed together. the stench of death was overwhelming. even for rebel soldiers standing guard. the u.n. said many more people were butchered inside this mosque where muslims mainly from darfur in the sudan were massacred. shortly after filming these pictures we were told by the

u.n. that the real number of people killed in the mosque were actually 200 out of 800 trying to hide there. changed hands several times, since fighting with rebel groups began in december. rebels from sudan are commonly believed to be fighting along the south sudanese arm of salva kiir. this conflict has forced a million people from their homes now. most of them are dependent on food aid. the food and agriculture organization has warned that next year south sudan will experience a widespread famine. they also say that the only thing that can prevent it is an end to the fighting. the u.n. has accused the rebel forces of killing civilians

based on their ethnicity, a charge the rebel commander denies. he tells us, his forces had killed civilians but none in the mosque. anna bentu al jazeera south sudan. institute for policy studies. emerald, welcome. >> good to be with you. >> those pictures we just saw are devastating. can you tell us why this ethnic issue exists? >> to go to the lens of ethnicity is disturbing. what is happening now is really struggle for political power and also economic power. let's remember that you know you had a -- basically a war that has broken out, a cease fire

signed just a few months ago in january but really continued fighting. because this -- which is really africa's newest country, you know south sudan became independent just back in twefn 1 and since then there has been a real struggle. >> i want you to talk about the starvation and how serious it is to south sudan. >> even though this is an oil producing state and big oil companies are continuing to take the oil out of the country. you know it's said oil revenues have gone down for a minimum of 20% in the past year of the fighting in spite of the incredible richness people are left with nothing without access to food or health care or even to send their kids to school in the midst of these atrocities. you have faith based leaders across the board that are calling for a real you know end to this crisis for a resolution

of the political crisis, as well as for a resumption of the humanitarian needs of the people of south sudan. >> emera, i want to have you back on the program to talk more about this, because it is a topic we need more time to cover and the pictures have been incredibly powerful and your words as well, emera woods thank you. >> good to see you as well. >> the white house says it's looking as to whether a chemical, most likely chlorine has been used against syrian rebels. the government has blamed an al qaeda linked rebel for the attack. syria plans to hold presidential elections june 3rd. u.s. and united nations representatives are already critical of that plan. many parts of syria remain under bombardment as the civil war

continues. in south korea, the death toll from the ferry disaster is climbing. officials have now recovered 104 bodies. the country's president has condemned the captain and crew calling their action he measure. has more. special forces veteran shin sung gu. >> right now they're wearing life jackets so it's very difficult to bring the bodies out of the ship. we need a knife or scissors to cut the life jackets and just get the bodies out. >> reporter: but open board the police boat shinn and his colleagues faced a frustrating 11 hour shift. to allow more divers in at the same time was unsuccessful. none of this team was able to make it into the ship. if the focus on the emergency

crews are on speeding up the recovery, the accused captain in an extraordinarily personal condemnation. she said his conduct and that of some of the crew was tantamount to murder. >> this was e yi gin soc in 201. >> just as long as you follow the directions i believe the ferry is safest transportation. >> captain was among the first to be rescued. with the trial still pending president park kun hay delivered her own verdict. >> above all the conduct of the captain and some of the crew members is wholly u not tolerat.

>> adding an extra deck to sewol and extend its operating life by ten years. back at the site of the sunking ferry divers were having to contend with leaking oil. second and third floors are where they expect to find most of the bodies. as well as getting an unmanned submersible into the deck. already well practiced in the solemn ritual of carrying the bodies ashore. each one bringing with it a grief that is at once shared and deeply personal. harry fawcett, al jazeera, jindo, are south korea. >> sherpas who guide people to the world's tallest mountain,

roxana saberi reports. >> it was unthinkable to lose so many of my friends in the avalanche. >> age are and uncertainty are growing. some sherpas have quit. others are thinking about boycotting the climbing season set to start next month. 12 are with alpine ascents international. lost five of its roughly 40 sherpas in the avalanche. the company has said the sherpa captain has since decided to cancel the expedition. they've paid $65,000 each and they are waiting to see if the path will be cleared and if other sherpa guides will step in. the sherpas don't just set the ropes and lead the way. they also carry the gear and cook the food. >> there are a lot of others like lodges or lot of business, that flourish along the trail.

>> a top guide can earn around $5,000 in three months. that's nearly ten times the country's average annual salary. that kind of money as this tragedy shows comes at a great risk and so the sherpas and their families want more compensation for the families. >> before the sherpas or the other climbers going up the mountains and risking their lives and bringing so much glory to the country and those people treated that way is not fair. >> will set up a task force to study the sherpas demands. >> native sherpa and originally from the everest region. now an anthropologist. in our first person report tonight she talks about the life of the sherpas. >> the sherpa is an ethnic group but the term has been used synonymously with porters and trekking guides and expedition

workers. because in the past most of the people who did those jobs were sherpas. having to pay most of the cost as far as safety and risk goes. whereas, not getting enough insurance coverage and not being protected or supported, if something happens to them. the fact that they are saying that they are going to boycott is hopefully going to put pressure on everyone to pay more attention to the safety measures, as well as good compensation for the expedition workers who are actually doing the real tough job and putting their lives in danger. the expedition workers who are working on the mountains make around three to $500,00500 $5,00 dollars for their work. we fear that the situation is going to continue and the expedition workers who are putting their lives in danger

are going to face the same kinds of difficulties and at the same time are not going to be covered fully or at least sufficiently by the state or by the expeditions that they are working for. this is not the first time that sherpas have died on the mountains. but i think this is the first time that sherpas are able to come out and talk about the situation. making sure that everyone understands that the expedition workers are there not because it's their hobby but rather, because they see that as the only option to better their lives, better their families' lives and make sure that their children are taken care of. but what happens when the expedition workers themselves are killed? who are going osupport the families and who are going to take care of the children? i think that's the larger question that we need to talk about and we need to find answers to. >> now pasang says she hopes

attention can be brought to sherpas working and living in the hymn a himalayas. >> attorney general eric holder says changes are made in the way evaluating clemency petitions. >> whenever our system fails to deliver the just outcomes necessary to deter and punish crime to keep us safe and to ensure that those who have paid their debts have a chance to become productive citizens. our expanded clemency application process will aid in this effort. >> holder says the justice department expects to receive thousands of are petitions for clemency, dozens of attorneys will be assigned to handle them. on 61 hundreds of thousands of.

>> past new year's day. denver's rally included competitions, vendors and a conference held by snoop dogg. comibs businescannabis law grou. welcome hilary. >> thank you. >> since we last talked, what is the biggest change in washington state with regard to recreational marijuana? >> currently our liquor control board is working on full blown implementation. it is a really long road but finally we have licensed processors and just this week the final lotto will take place. the biggest thing to report is progress at this point. >> how big the demand for

licenses? >> i would say the demand for all three licensing spheres is actually very high. as far as the entrepreneurs are concerned, and consumers definitely want to know from whom they will be purchasing their recreational marijuana. >> what are you learning from colorado? why. >> colorado has been very good in teaching washington to care about image. among other things. i know most recently some locals in colorado were very concerned about the image of being tied to this kind of misinformed stoner-culture if you will, but i think that washington can help battle that type of stigma and that image by showing our diversification as a tourist friendly location. operating properly in a society and this grand experiment we're about to undertake.

>> this picture was at an event in denver. all this marijuana smoke going up over the crowd. it liked like -- it did look like denver was going up in smoke literally. when you talk about that image how do you think washington state is going to differ from the way those pictures we see in denver, by the way i believe that seattle's had a couple of events like that as well. maybe not that big. >> we have. we have, in fact we have hemp fest every september and people get very excited for it also. the issue is old habits diehard. we may never lose the party-type atmosphere that's associated with marijuana. however i do think that some very healthy social conditioning needs to take place and is taking place about the responsible use of marijuana. and that's going to take some time before we see that play out where we've got casual yet responsible use taking place in

seattle. and i'm positive that 4-20 parties will never go away and i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. it's part of a panoply of culture that these states are going through and i think it's very positive as a whole to see this type of recreational use as long as it's controlled and people understand their responsibility to use in a very tailored way. >> there's been discussion about edibles because of incidents in colorado involving the deaths of a couple of people. does this mean that marijuana will be regulated more in washington state as a result of these sorts of incidents do you think? >> i don't think that that's necessarily going to be the case. we have a very robust regime that accommodates very, very clear responsible packaging and labeling. the unfortunate side effect of legalization is that some people will continue to abuse the system.

and part of this conversation about marijuana alcohol prescription drugs these consumer based goods has got to be addiction and responsible use. part of the implementation of 502 is to keep that dialogue going to institute tools to educate people on how to use responsely. while it's an unfortunate consequence, it's not only side effect we're going to see. in washington state. >> d day is what date for you? >> june or july 2014 is when we'll see the first store fronts open. >> hilary, great to speak to you. >> great to talk with you, thank you. >> netflix is going to increase subscription rates soon. it will amount to one or $2 more a month, but only new customers will be affected for now.
