want to see that either or get a room. uncomfortable seeing some kind of affection why not say that and leave the excuses about why you're uncomfortable where they belong on the ridiculous. that's it for us. for the first time we are exposing the faces and names behind the key boards in shanghai used to steal from american businesses. >> china's vehement reaction to american accusations it has been hacking u.s. companies. the army is in the streets. the marshal law declaration that caught thailand by surprise. >> we're live in pretoria where oscar pistorius is set to find out the timing. >> and what the 9/11 memorial museum has done to anger some new yorkers. >> basically making money off my
12:01 am
son's dead body. i think that's disgusting. >> hello. for the first time ever a group of chinese military officers is facing 31 criminal charges in the u.s. and china is outraged by these allegations. >> the u.s. justice department says the men hacked into the computers of major american companies and stole trade secrets. we are going live to beijing. >> first, how u.s. officials say they found the hackers and why they'll never face prosecution. >> wanted by the fbi. five chinese military officials who have allegedly spent years stealing trade secrets from some of the biggest company in the u.s. like westinghouse and alcoa.
12:02 am
draining the u.s. economy out of millions of dollars. >> for the first time we are exposing the faces and names behind the key boards in shanghai used to steal from american businesses. >> from thousands of miles away, the u.s. tracked the men down to one city, one block, one building on the chinese army base near shanghai. according to thin indictment, the five men hacked into the pirate networks of six u.s. companies and to steal u.s. power. rating highly sensitive cutting edge research, pricing and strategy information. >> i think the american public has to be concerned. the american public, u.s. companies have lost billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars by many estimates. they've lost jobs. tuesday has become less come petty and chinese companies and other nations' companies, as a matter of fact, have gained on the backs of american consumers. american taxpayers, american investors. >> in one case, u.s. officials
12:03 am
alleged they stole trade secrets of a nuclear power plant while negotiations were underway between westinghouse and a chinese company. ? we hope the chinese government will work with us in connection with this and bring these indicted men to justice. >> they said the chances of that happening are slim to none. instead the charges are meant to fire a warning shot across china's bow. >> enough is enough. we've got enough evidence. we're coming forward. we'll throw the gauntlet down and tell the chinese government you can't cross this red line. >> u.s. officials say it is a ramp dlanl problem going on for years. president obama has even confronted chinese leaders about it. >> we're going to have to work very hard to build a system of defenses and protections, both in the private sector and the public sector. >> chinese officials now firing back, calling the allegations absurd and fictional and portraying themselves as the real victim of krish theft by the u.s. brought to life by the edward snowden nsa leaks.
12:04 am
>> thanks to pamela brown for that report. and chinese news agency is reporting that beijing has summoned the u.s. ambassador over these five indictments and is warning u.s./china relations are in jeopardy. let's get more on this from beijing. it would seem the retaliation has only just begun. >> reporter: oh, that's right, john. how far this would go is anyone's guess. the u.s. government also confirming that max bacchus, the ambassador to china, was in meetings with the foreign ministry. he was called in, it appears, late into the night after that initial announcement by the u.s. justice department. that image of the alleged hackers in wanted posters, similar that you would get for international criminals of the more violent nature. even terrorists by the fbi is deeply embarrassing at best for
12:05 am
the chinese government. even one of them in the p.l.a., people's liberation uniform. that they were hand in hand with the government and state-earned enterprises to steal secrets. the chinese government has said it is all rubbish. they said that they had never engaged in any theft of any trade secrets and they have hit back saying they are themselves the victims. >> david, you mentioned these wanted posters. they made these five military officers out to be kind of part of dillinger gang if you look at the fbi posters. is that why this has gone on to a whole new level? in the past, china has brushed off these allegations. this time it seems different. >> reporter: well, it is different in that they've named names and made criminal charges. if these charges were to go forward and these men faced
12:06 am
justice and were found guilty, they could get up to 10 to 15 years. no one believes they will end up going to trial so one has to believe the justice department was on some level trying to make a statement rather than necessarily seeking justice. that statement is that they are angry at the level of theft. they say that china is engaged in for many, many years. china on its part says that it is almost like the pot calling the kettle black, particularly with edwin snowden affair which suggests that the former contractor leaked secrets from the nsa. that they were often attacked by u.s. intelligence agencies on chinese tigers. so some saying this goes on every whereby every country and that pointing out china is unfair, but at the same time, you know, the u.s. says they've lost billions because of this
12:07 am
hacking over time. >> it does seem to be the naming and the shaming which is different this time and that's why it would take on a whole new dimension. live for us in beijing. nearly 100 arrests have been made against hackers using a piece of malicious software. the crackdown spans 19 countries, targeting a program known as black shades. it allows hackers to remotely hijack computers. they can turn on webcams, access hard drives and steal passwords. even worse, it is relatively easy to use and kit cost as little as $40. authorities say more than half a million users have been infected. american beauty queen was among the target. cassidy wolf says a form he classmate black mailed her and has since pleaded guilty. wolff had received an e-mail of nooud pictures of herself taken by a laptop. it he threatened a sex show or
12:08 am
the images would go public. >> to think someone was watching me in my bedroom for a year and had my most intimate moments and the conversations i had had with my mom and my brother. it is so crazy that someone can have access to all of that by computer. >> one of those arrested is in fact a swedish hacker. the u.s. state department is urging all sides in thailand to resolve their differences peacefully after the army declar declared marshal law. >> it caught pretty much everyone off guard. troops are patrolling bangkok and all appears calm. it is men to protect the safety of citizens and says don't panic. this is not a coup. >> this follows the court dismissal two weeks ago, the decision that angered many in
12:09 am
thailand. he is a 20-year veteran of the cia and director of pqa associates and joins us now from bangkok. so we have an aide to the care taker prime minister describing this as half a coup while the army officer says it is not a coup. what is it exactly? >> you have the right to be confused. it is not a coup detat yet. into a week that looked like it would be pretty disrupted with rallies and strike plans for later on. they do not want to stage a coup. they do not want to be involved in civilian politics at the moment. everyone here, at least the local population in bangkok is relieved that there has to be some sort of order imposed. i think what the army is up to next is trying to broker quiet negotiations between the parties to see if they can get some compromise in order. the military is not -- i'm sorry, go ahead. >> no, no, please.
12:10 am
go ahead. >> to do political mediations but they're doing pretty well with marshal law. there hasn't been any acts of violence or confrontations yet. the protest leaders seem to be in agreement with it. for the moment no one has said they're going to defy the military rule and the army is pretty good at planning the logistics and deployment to impose order on central bangkok. >> it is worth pointing out, the declaration did take the government by surprise. what does that unilateral action tell but the situation on the ground and programs how long this marshal law will be in place? >> well, it says a lot i think about the government or what's left of it. as you pointed out earlier, most of the government was removed when it removed the prime minister and nine key cabinet members. the remnants was very weak and
12:11 am
in many ways there was no government. so i think they put some authority into governance in bangkok. we are now in a no man's land politically. what the government role will be going forward is hard to tell. the army chief met this afternoon with senior civil servants which is interesting, and bypassed the political masters, the elected leaders and was asking them going forward. what we have now is short term stability, long term prospects are a little more iffy. >> a very delicate time, isn't i? it would be critical at this point that the army remain impartial. but you've got these political tensions between the supporters and opponents of the government. how delicate a situation is this? and where do they go from here? what sort of negotiations need to be taking place at this particular time now?
12:12 am
>> well said. it is a very delicate situation. and the appearance and impartiality will be almost more important than the actual conduct and partialiality. each group of anti-government and pro government demonstrators are very wary of moves by the military given thailand's history. the military itself begin the minor era is also weary of staging a military coup and trying to run a civilian government. so all parties are very much in a 24-hour wait and see mode. hopefully, the early signs are we'll see some peace and quiet for a day or two. after that it is hard to say. >> we'll be watching very closely and hope it remains calm. many thanks to you for joining us. >> as fighting intensifies, some countries suspending their embassies and consulates. both saudi arabia and turkey have temporarily shut their missions and they have told cnn the u.s. is getting ready for

what is not in dispute was that the first one was bullet "a." what's quite clear when you walk into the bathroom is just how small it is. so both defense and prosecution saying that bullet "a" hit hirs first. coming through here and hitting her in the hip. what happened next after that first bullet is unclear. in fact, the defense ballistics experts saying, we will never know what really happened behind this door. her positioning in dispute and clear if they had ever she had time to scream or not. what we do know is that after the shots or during the shots, she fell back into this corner. programs sitting down on this magazine rack, falling down on to it. her final position here in this corner, slumped over on toilet seat.

12:25 am
river basin across this region. many tributaries coming to the south in a river that stretches about 600 miles. this goes on over the next couple days and peaks right in belgrade and notice the river as it pushes into the danube. much wider so we expect the body of water to finally begin to get some breathing room and the flooding concern down stream going to be alleviated. we know the water levels, 6 1/2 meters or 21.5 feet expected to reach on friday afternoon with flooding a major concern. not just the city but about 18 miles southwest of the city. 30 kilometers away there is the coal burning power plant across that region. it supplies electricity to half the nation's population with around 3.5 million people getting electricity from that power plant and water will be a major issue as it works its way toward this region. look at the satellite imagery. from may of 2013. here is the river.
