5:00 pm
the long-term hope is it leads to treatment and development of those disorders. >> we don't understand how the brain creates reality, hope, sensatio sensations. if we don't understand that, we can't understand how it fails to work in these diseases. >> reporter: the bio tech technology is simple but could further our knowledge of something extraordinary complex. dan simon, cnn. dan simon, cnn. >> ac 360 starts right now. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com breaking news tonight. wildfires hammering the northwest and it could get much worse very soon. tens of thousands of americans are in the path of this, later in the show tonight he came to court in handcuffs but what happens to the three young women
5:01 pm
that ariel castro kept in chai.s the tornados, fire and the rare storm threatening one in five americans. they are facing the possibility of a massive weather system. chad myers is in the weather center to explain what it is and an update on the tornados, fires making it tough in the northwest. i understand there is a new tornado on the ground wrchlt is that? >> that's extreme northwestern illinois almost really by iowa. that storm west of rockford, mount caramel is the area here. that's the tornado we know is on the ground confirmed by police. i believe there are very many potential tornados still coming to the ground tonight anderson. i know we talked about this derecho event coming. right now they are not lined up. when we talk about storms not bumping into each other, those are the ones that can tornado. a couple of them here west of fort wayne, one here south of
5:02 pm
gary, indiana big storm there and a number of them still into iowa and they all have been putting down tornados, one after another, especially across parts of iowa, and we still have many more hours of this warmth. it's still 7:00 out there. temperatures as warm as they will get for the day, and we have that tornado watch, and that tornado watch probably posted i think for another five to six hours, even though it will expire at 9:00, i think they will keep it going many more hour was after that. >> this is these storms moving across the northwest and could turn into derecho. i've never heard of that. what is that? >> a squall line can last 50 miles or so. this derecho event can last for hundreds of miles. think of a 200-mile wild f 0, f 1 tornado that plows across the countryside. that's what we had last year. here is where it's likely probable and even possible as
5:03 pm
far east as washington d.c. for tomorrow. this is what it looks like last year. we don't have this yet. we don't have these storm cells in a line or in bows like here and here and here. when that happens, that's when the derecho event occurs and winds get blown. think of a bulldozer pushing this air ahead of it, these storms are moving 60. there is winds in the storm of 40. you add them together, that's a wind guest of 100 miles per hou. >> and what about the fires in colorado? >> it's a dreadful day. we had temperatures of 90 degrees and relative humidity is 5%, 5 so nothing really got moisture at all. it was dry all day. the winds were blowing 30 miles per hour all day, and now we have two accept breseparate lin. these aren't like last summer all the homes, almost 100 homes destroyed and there is no end.
5:04 pm
temperatures across colorado springs well in excess of 90, 95 degrees and sometimes, anderson, i know you've been out there, these fires are so hot, they go up and these fire s can create their own wind. from the southwest, it's hard to get out of the way of this much land, at this much dry has been drought for two years there. there are pine beetles that have killed half the trees out there. they are standing there waiting to burn. this is a nightmare scenario for people out there. >> it's amazing how far the embers can b taken out there. new revolutions from edward snowden the former contractor turned leaker tells the congress hong newspaper the agency has been hacking into computers in hong kong and the chinese mainland for years. he said the nsa gains access to the backbone so it doesn't have to break into individual machines. he says he'll stay in hong kong
5:05 pm
to fight extradition until in his words, he's told to leave. in the meantime he lives in constant fear for his and his family's safety. he says he's not a hero nor a traitor. he was not a traitor which other colleagues have done but for something else he said. >> as far as reporters who help reveal these programs, double something should happen to them? double they should be punished, as well? >> actually, if they willingly knew that this was classified information, i think action should be taken, especially on something of this mag constitute. i know the issue of leaks has been gotten into over the last month but i think something of this magnatude, as a practical
5:06 pm
matter, i guess there have been in the past several years a number of reporters who have been prosecuted under it. so the answer is yes to your question. >> now later today on fox news, he went even further when he was talking to megan kelly. he said that glen greenwald who writes for the guardian should be prosecuted because he threatened to reveal the identities of cia agents and other personnel operating around the world. we researched this and found no evidence glen greenwald said that and in fact, we'll talk to glen glen glen wald for the guard gin. >> he says that's a direct attack on america and that's the will be you should be prosecuted. i haven't found a kwoquote you threatened this. just for the record, have you or are you threatening to disclose the names of cia agents and
5:07 pm
officers around the world? >> yeah, the reason you haven't found that, anderson, is because it doesn't exist. i was really staggered a united states congressman, the chairman of the house homeland security committee actually could go on national television and make up an acre zcr accusation that i t to uncover the names of cia agents as a way of arguing for my arrest and prosecution inside the united states for the crime of doing journalism. it's bad enough to call for that. it's extraordinarily menacing. >> i'm assuming that congressman king has sort of combined two different statements, one made by snowden and one by you. snowden said quote i had access to the full rosters everyone working at the nsa and undercover agents end quote.
5:08 pm
you said quote we'll have a lot more significant revelations that have not been heard over the next several weeks and months but again, that's not saying anything about what peter king has said. so are any -- just for the record, are any of the revelations that may becoming -- that you may release, are any of them the identities of cia personnel or agents in the field? >> no, and when mr. snowden said what it is that you quoted him as saying, he was doing so in the context of answering the acquisition that i asked him about that he was trying to harm national security and his point was look, if my goal were to harm national security or endanger americans, there are all kinds of things i could have done that i would not do and didn't do. >> do you think king is making that up or mistaken? >> you know, the last thing i would try and do is read the mind of -- and what goes on internally in the swamp of peter king's brain.
5:09 pm
i know he has a history of radical and extremist statements. he was a supporter of terrorism for several decades when it was done by the ira. so i don't know if he decided to completely make that up or what. i know the claims he made on national television about me were utterly and completely false, and they were very serious charges that i think he ought to be held accountable for. you can't go on national television and call for the arrest of a journalist -- >> i should reiterate we contacted his office since that interview today and have not heard back. king says you should be prosecuted because of what you've already published saying it puts american lives at risk. double that at a do you believe that at all? when the wikileaks thing happened, a lot of people said they had blood on their hands but then u.s. officials privately admitted in -- to people in congress and even
5:10 pm
publicly that even though the revolutions were embarrassing, were a problem, that they couldn't name anyone that lost their lives because of it. so now when people are saying you put american lives at risk, do you believe that at all? >> no, and anderson, that point you made in my opinion is the crucial point for anybody listening to take away. every single time the american government has things that they have done in secret exposed to the world and are embarrassed by it, the tactic they use is to try to scare people in believing they have to overlook what they have done. they have to trust oh mer c ame officials to exercise power in the dark and i think it's the responsibility when they hear an american official say this story about us jeopardizes national security to demand specifics, to ask what exactly it is that
5:11 pm
jeopardized national security. the store -- stories we reported didn't do that. >> what do you say when the government needs to act in secret at times? there is legitimate reasons and people that want to attack this country. >> nobody doubts that the government has the right to keep some secrets and we are keeping some secrets. we're not disclosing the technical means by which the nsa spies on people to enable other countries to replicate or evade it. we're not disclosing the names of people at whom the spying is directed, but what the government doesn't have the right to do is implement incredibly consequence l policies that affect the world we live and the country we are without credibility. >> snowden said the nsa had been hacking computers in china since 200 a9 and showed the newspaper
5:12 pm
documents and they said they couldn't independently verify them. does that line up with you or can you say? >> he was clear that the u.s. goes around the world threatening and warning people about the dangers of cyber attacks that the u.s. is one of the most prolific if not the most of cyber war fair. we published in october that lays forth a very aggressive policy of when the u.s. will use offensive cyber attacks and particularly notable because it's china the u.s. directed those accusations at most, yet the u.s. according to these documents and snowden is very active in hacking into chinese research facilities, university, businesses and ones in hong kong, as well. >> glen greenwald, appreciate talking to you, thank you. a possible scandal in the state department. john miller, john, you saw when mr. snow den says in that interview. does the u.s. government know where he is at this point?
5:13 pm
>> i think they have a pretty good idea where he is. this is the kind of thing that not yesterday or the day before but at the very beginning of this fbi headquarters would have like recalled the fbi legal office in hong kong where they have a number of agents. they would have called their counter parts in the hong kong law enforcement and intelligence community and said, hey, could you acquire this guy? meaning could you put eyes on? can we have an idea where he is? and please keep eyes on while we put together some charge that might fit the extradition treaty. >> if he shares what he knows of classified information with the chinese? >> very concerned on some level. number one, hong kong is attached to mainland china, they have a semi government -- this is the kind of thing that would be of high interest to the people's republic of china and
5:14 pm
here is an individual feeling vulnerable, looking for asylum and has a bag feel of suck recr and a head full of more. between the chinese, russians, any number of places might want to talk to him and offer him comfort. >> snowden is accusing the u.s. of hacking the chinese. the state department said essentially look, there is a difference between what china is doing to the u.s. which is going after economic data, what they described as cyber attacks and what the u.s. is doing to china and essentially going after bad guys. does that wash with you? >> yeah, all governments hack at all other governments. that's what spy agencies do, they spy. but the chinese is the only government, to my knowledge, that believes it is permissible not to, you know, the u.s. -- for the chinese -- the people's republic of china hacking into u.s. defense websites and infrastructure. china is the only place that
5:15 pm
thinks it's okay to hack into commercial enterprises for commercial gain. in other words, they will hack into all of the government things that everybody else is hacking into, but then they will hack into corporate america, and they will steal, steal technology, steal trade secrets, steal research that's half done, steal completed projects, patented things. china just takes the general posture when it comes to cyber thievery that we don't have time to invent all these things. it's better to take them off of somebody's servers. that's a dirty secret, but everybody in the cyber world knows that and we've seen it come out in some of the latest reports both from the government and from the private people that look at the computers. >> over the years, people intelligence who i talk to say the amount of spying china does on the u.s. would surprise a lot of people. >> anderson, there is a building that's filled with hundreds of people's liberation army, cyber
5:16 pm
experts. they work seven days a week, 24 hours a day. some of them are assigned to hack into government databases. some are assigned to hack into commercial things. some are assigned to hack into universities. that's a full-time job there. >> i want to switch gears to a story you broke a couple days ago that's getting a lot of attention. a potential scandal in the state department, coverups, what did you find? >> what we found was there was the dss, the people who provide the security details for the secretary of state and ambassadors overseas but do criminal investigations but also investigate wrongdoing among state department employees, and basically, the inspector general found there were a number of agents that they interviewed who said well, my investigations go fine until they start to go towards scandal and then they are either interfered with or cut off so we found accounts
5:17 pm
from dss agents who said i was told i couldn't interview the two pain people. another one said i was told i only had three days to do the investigation which was absurd. it would require more on that. one said i was assigned to investigate this ambassador overseas and then i got an order to cease and take what i had so far and put it in a memo. so they put that in a memorandum then in a draft of the report, but in the final report that was published, not much of that was in there. >> so what happens now? >> so what happens now is that the inspector general has said let's review these cases, and they have brought in -- to answer the state department's concern which is these are inspect tomorrows who are doing basically a management assessment on whether a division is running right. so they said, you know, they can't really assess whether a criminal investigation is going correctly so they brought in professional investigator tors from other agencies, hired them
5:18 pm
on and said review these cases and a few more and give them an assessment. was there influence? was there tampering? were things squashed or swept under the rug. >> thank you. >> thank you. what peter king said about glen greenwald, follow me on twitter at anderson cooper. 10-year-old sarah murnaghan finally has what she fought so hard to get, new lungs. she's out of surgery. we'll have the latest on her condition ahead. the other breaking story, the growing wildfires in colorado.

5:22 pm
welcome back. we have more breaking news to report tonight, 10-year-old sarah murnaghan has new longs. the new longs came from an adult donor. her parents challenged the policy that makes it nearly impossible for children younger than 1 from getting adult donor lungs no matter how sick the child is. it's a life and death issue because pediatric donor lungs are so rare. last week a federal judge intervened and sarah was put on the adult waiting list. when sarah heard about the ruling, she cheered, listen. >> wooo, wooo, wooo. >> it has been a very tough battle for this little girl. she has cystic fibrosis. the family waited so long, and it finally came.
5:23 pm
jason carroll joins me. you're outside the hospital where sarah got out of the surgery. what do you know about how things went? >> i can tell you her father and father have seen her and she seems to be doing remarkably well. we're hearing she's in good condition, heavily sedated. she's still int baubated. the surgery, anderson, lasted about six hours and we'll told through a family spokesperson that doctors had no special challenges in resizing the lung to fit into sarah's chest. just before we went to air, anderson, we got a bit of a statement here from the family. i'll read it in part because it does provide a little more detail. it says sarah is in the process of getting settled in the icu and now her recovery begins. it will be a long road but we're not going for easy, we're going for possible and an organ donor has made this possible for her. obviously, she still has a long road ahead of her. there is always the risk of infection and the organ being rejected but she took a very
5:24 pm
major step today. anderson? >> you spoke to the family before the surgery, correct? >> yes, yeah, and as you can imagine, at that point their emotions were sort of all over the place. you know, they had found out last night that the donor had come in, and once sarah was in surgery, i asked if we could speak a little bit about what they were feeling, and the one point they wanted to make was about the person that made this day possible. >> they don't tell you anything. i mean, but that donor is her hero, our hero of this story. but she wouldn't have had access to that hero, if it weren't for the change. this is a low bar transplant, this is an adult donor, this is an opportunity she wouldn't have access to just two weeks ago. >> the other point she wanted to make is not just this person was a hero but they are hoping that there will be a change for the system to help children not just sarah, but the other child who you know of anderson, that 11-year-old was also waiting for
5:25 pm
a lung transplant and other children as well now that there is a change. >> i didn't realize about these different lists. we aprie we appreciate that. she was a very sick little girl and has a challenging road ahead. sanjay gupta joins us now. a lung transplant, how difficult and complex of a surgery is that and how difficult is the recovery? >> the operation can depend as you just heard from her mom there. this was what's known as a low bar transplant. so instead of transplanting the whole adult lung, they took specific lobes of the lung. this is usually just because of a size issue soft you take particular lobes of the lung and size them and make them fit and you heard in the statement there that that part of the operation went pretty smoothly. from sort of beginning of the operation to the end, it was about six hours so that's pretty typical, in terms of the length of these operations. so it sounds like that would be
5:26 pm
-- one is straightforward. she'll have the breathing tube in. over the longer run, this is a girl who still has cystic fibrosis and will need medication to suppress ore immune system to not develop infections and reject the lungs. there is several phases to the recovery. >> is it true she'll require another transplant in the future since adult lungs won't grow as she grows? >> the kconcern is more about rejection. sometimes even these lungs, even though it's just the lobe of the lung they can expand to a certain extent. you remember not too long ago, anderson, the new pope is living without a lobe of his long. so it is possible people can live with a smaller lung but the larger concern for sarah is the rejection of these lungs and that could possibly lead to another transplant. >> why are there different
5:27 pm
lists? is there is a good reason behind that? >> ideally, what you try to do is create situations where the people that need the transplant the most are matched up with the people that will benefit the most. that may sound rather obvious will you not always the sickest people in general, the people that will benefit the most in these transplants. with kids and these transplants, they are not that common. a couple hundred over the last couple years. a cutoff after 12 years old, saying above that they can be on the adult list and below that, i think there is not enough data for people under the age of 12. >> sanjay appreciate that. >> you can find her story at cnn.com. we're live out west, fires and winds equals a state of emergency. one fire is growing larger moving in two directions at once. we'll take you to the fire lines. >> also, later, ariel castro

dark smoke, something unnatural is burning, many of them homes. many of the people evacuated are in red cross shelters, hotels. it's very difficult to get a room, or they are with friends and/or family. anderson? >> even a prison was evacuated, right? >> yeah, a prison was evacuated, but we have to start this with telling you that there are five fires here in colorado. this is the black forest fire. there are three to the north and one about 55 miles southwest in canyon city. that is the royal gorge fire and there is the centennial corrections facility near there. they evacuated the prison, 905 low to medium security inmates, many of them special needs.

5:39 pm
welcome back, ariel castro was arraigned today in a cleveland courtroom. he didn't say a word. his lawyers entered a non-guilty plea. he was entered on the counts and the attorneys said some of the charges cannot be disputed. the 52-year-old former school bus driver is accused of rape e murder, holding three women captive in his home for a decade. they were freed you may remember last month after one of them made a break and called to a neighbor for help. pamela brown was in the
5:40 pm
courtroom and joins us now. what exactly was it like in the court today? he didn't say anything. how did he appear? >> reporter: you're right, anderson. he walked in. he looked void of emotion. he kept his head down the entire time. he didn't make eye contact with anyone, not his attorneys, not the judge. in fact, anderson, it appeared he had his eyes closed during the entire arraignment. his attorneys entered a plea on his behalf and as you said, he didn't say anything at all. it was a very quick arraignment. it only lasted about a minute. >> the three women asked for privacy and it seems like reporter haves given it to them. you did speak to the victims' personal attorney. what did he say? >> reporter: jim wooly is his name and he said that the women want this to be over, and they want it to be over quickly. he said they have no desire to testify in the trial, and he said that at this point no one wants this to go to trial. the ball is in the prosecution's court.
5:41 pm
pressure is mounting on the prosecution to negotiate a plea deal and essentially take that aggravated murder charge and obviously, the death penalty off the table so that a deal can be negotiated. >> so it sounds like that lawyer is saying a plea deal would be acceptable to his clients? >> reporter: absolutely. the women's attorney made it clear he wants a plea deal to be reached and today, the defense attorney of ariel castro made it clear that he wants a plea deal to be negotiated, so as i said, the ball is really in the prosecution's court, and the prosecution also has a vested interest for a deal to be reached. prosecution wants what is best for these victims. the prosecution wants to protect the victims but at the same time it's a balancing act. they want to make sure justice is served and ariel castro faces the maximum penalty and i spoke to legal experts and we're learning it will be difficult for the prosecution to pursue the death penalty for thing a valted murder charge.
5:42 pm
really no legal president here and also, the prosecution has to have both forensic and medical evidence to show that not only michelle knight was pregnant during that time frame but castro caused the termination of her pregnancy and that's a tall order there. >> it's impossible for us to imagine what they went through and are going through trying to reclaim their lives. jaycee dugard certainly knows, as well. she was kidnapped when she was just 11 years old. she was held for 18 years and was forceed to live in a hidden compound of tarps and sheds and gave birth to two kids. today she's in her 30s and helping others. her therapist guided dugard helping her to reconnect with her family, help her to rebuild her life. she's the author of safe kids, smart parents and done ground breaking research on what these
5:43 pm
kid haves faced. thank you for being with us. i talked to sean horn beck taken as a child a short time after these women were released and he said this is something that happened to him. it's not who he is, and he does not want to be defined by what somebody else did to him. is that something you hear a lot from victims? >> absolutely. and it's such a healthy response because it's time, for example, these young women, i don't want to speculate too much on what their situation is, but they have given enough time to that man, and it's time for them to be able to move forward, so yes, yes, absolutely. >> how do you -- again, i'm not a big fan of seclation, either but in general how do you help somebody move forward? the process of trusting, of reintegrating with the family? i mean there is so many different aspects. >> you know, so many of the responses to that sound so simplistic because it really is
5:44 pm
one step at a time. one step at a time slowly. allow them to guide you in the process. we know from the department of justice study that the national center did back with them back in 1991 that there is such a variety of what families need. there is some givens like privacy like these families are getting but step at a time. >> there is also the range of emotions that somebody goes through. i mean, anger to i would imagine anger to certainly their captor but also their families in some cases and -- i mean, is talking about -- i've seen in different studies some say talking about something can help it and others say it sort of relives the trama. should families kind of hold back and let the person talk on their own time? >> well, it's sort of a two-fold answer. one is it -- one of the ways that we work with people is using animal therapy with a
5:45 pm
program that i have because -- >> horses -- >> horses and dogs and -- because part of it is being able to get people out of the words, some people do need to talk about it, some people don't. but the most important thing you also said was about families and the individual difference, and every time i talk, i always want to bring it back to the siblings, because the siblings in these families are affected as much as the central victim in very, very different ways. so i love that you're acknowledging the range of differen differences. so we really need to keep that in mind looking because i don't know all the parties and families of these victims, but i know that they have all been affected and will have different responses. >> it is incredible to me and i've seen it time and time again what people can survive and what they can rebuild a life from. >> and that's why i'm out, out here doing this. this is why i wrote this book with my sister based on the
