tv Erin Burnett Out Front CNN February 5, 2015 4:00pm-5:01pm PST
4:00 pm
shock, the congressman this staffer worked for has not had a great week. it's hard to police anybody's social media page. >> thanks very much. you can follow us on twitter. tweet me at wolf blitzer. thanks for watching. erin burnett outfront starts right now. breaking news. jordan ups the ante vowing to go after the militants with everything they have. the deadly plane crash. one passenger's story of survival. why he told others to unbuckle as they were crashing. new details in the driver killed in that train crash. why couldn't she get off the tracks in time? let's go outfront. the breaking news.
4:01 pm
jordan's foreign minister telling cnn that his country will go after isis where ever they are with everything that we have. this as we have new video of co coalition air strikes. you're looking at isis targets exploding. these are the first that jordan has participated in since the terrorists burned a fighter pilot alive. u.s. jet fighters hit isis targets today. the u.s. posting these images of exactly what happened in the aftermath of those strikes in iraq and syria. earlier today president obama did not mince words in describing the isis terrorists. >> isil brutal vicious death cult in the name of religion carrying out unspeakable acts of barbarism. >> barbara starr is outfront from the pentagon tonight. we saw some of those videos.
4:02 pm
coalition partners flying again. what did they hit? >> these were jordanian a air strikes. they say they hit training areas. about 20 targets in eastern syria. that's what the video is of. those jordanian f-16s going against isis targets in syria. jordan making clear they will go after isis. this is an stroot event for the jordanian air force. they are capable and relatively small. they were under orders. go afterisis and that is what they did. they have been working with the u.s. for the last several days to develop that target and get the intelligence the exact coordinates to carry out the strikes. >> barbara, we just had the breaking news.
4:03 pm
the foreign minister telling cnn they will go after isis where ever they are with everything we have. they are saying this is just the beginning. what else can they do? you talk about the air force being relatively small although capable. >> that's right. i think what everyone understands in the next few days you will see additional air strikes. you'll see them taking on larger role in the coalition. jordan putting on the table to the other arab partners step up. this is not about islam. this is about terrorists. jordanian officials very much making the point from washington today that there needed to be islamic participation from the arab world from the region in this campaign. just to be clear, the u.s. flew along the jordanians today. there were u.s. aircraft in the air.
4:04 pm
this is how the coalition works now. no matter what country is flying everybody flies together. everyone takes on a piece of the pie. today it was jordan's turn. >> thank you very much. anger building in jordan tonight. it's coming from everywhere including the king himself who also has a very specific military background. >> reporter: just the beginning. that's what jordan is calling these images. the aftermath of air strikes inside syria. jordan's king abdullah making good on his promise of swift retaliation. cnn has learned abdullah signalled the depth of his anger in a meeting with u.s. legislatures before he rushed back reportedly quoting clint eastwood's character in the movie, unforgiven. >> any man i see out there i'm
4:05 pm
going to kill him. any [ bleep ] takes a shot at me i'm going to kill his wife all his friends. burn his house down. >> reporter: he was quick to act. one day after the pilot's death jordan executed two terrorists in direct response the the execute. the next day afterthose air strikes, the pilots made a symbolic flyover over the house as abdullah visited with the pilot's father. he pointed out the overhead jets as proof of his resolve. he's commander in chief of the jordanian air force. pictures of him in combat fatigue posted pictures of him. he would personally fly a mission against isis. reports the jordanian government was quick to refute. jordan is seizing the moment to build public support for war that many jordanians opposed
4:06 pm
before the brutal death. >> we hit them and hit them hard because we want to make sure they will pay for the crime they did and the atrocity they did to all pilots. >> reporter: he's taking the loss of this pilot very personal. he said it was like losing his own son. almost every jordanian is saying the same thing. >> thank you very much. these air strike videos we got today, it's part of the shock and awe they wanted to show the video of the f-16s hitting the targets in syria. the king is vowing revenge.
4:07 pm
so far all the air strikes when you look at the overall picture have been shown by americans. is the united states going to have to fight this war? >> jordan brings important capabilities to the fight. when it comes down to it what jordan could really do is provide specific forces on the ground in conjunction with aircraft and help call in air strikes if they could put those special forces into syria especially if they could round up the sunni tribes and get them turned against isis. jordan could be a really important partner but the air capacity is dwarfed by that of the united states. >> what about the point that you could have jordanian special
4:08 pm
forces on the ground. makes sense but since they have them on the ground, they with rr worried about what might happen to their pilots. is it realistic to expect an arab country to put troops on the ground? >> i don't expect them to do that but given their rhetoric that seems to be what they'll do. they have essentially opened the gates now and upped the ante. it's not going to have too much of an impact without the issues the colonel raised. that's what defeated al qaeda in iraq. it was people on the ground tribes on the ground in syria syria-iraq corridor.
4:09 pm
>> today the white house is sending a proposal to authorize the use of force. of the air strikes to far over 2,000, the united states has conducted nearly 2,000 of those strikes. >> will american troops be going in always? >> i think eventually we'll have to if we want to defeat isis. tlp there has to be a ground capability. at some point you're going to have u.s. advisors on the ground embedded in these forces and perhaps even joining with jordanian special forces and other forces to help a sunni uprising. then they could make a hybrid force and a regular forces calling in ire strikes and you could actually destroy isis in
4:10 pm
that manner. until that happens all the air power in the world will continue to hit targets, mow the grass but the terrorists are going to remain. >> the united states still at the highest levels a denial of american ground troops. isis is holding an american. a 26-year-old american aid worker a woman. the fact she was a woman led some people to say maybe her fate will be different than the other americans and westerners who have been beheaded. now you see a muslim fighter pilot burned to death. >> no barbarity is off the table. they've been executeing women or crucifying people or beheading people. this is a very precarious situation. we know that isis doesn't negotiate in good faith. they are negotiating as a
4:11 pm
propaganda tool. >> they killed a pilot the month before. >> dominate the news cycle and force different governments to say we'll treat them as equals for now in terms of the discussion when in reality we knew they weren't going to follow through. they were negotiating in bad faith from the start. >> it's horrific. new measles cases the virus is spreading to babies. the deadly plane crash. we're standing by for a live update for officials that will happen in a few moments. we're also going to hear tonight from one man with an amazing survival story with that flight. the woman at the center of a deadly train crash. who was she and what was she doing on the tracks?

4:16 pm
water below. there are reports the captain complained of engine abnormalities before take off. aviation officials insist that's not the case. he did not complain. i know we're hearing from more witnesses including the taxicab driver that everyone sees there that got clipped by the wing of the plane. what did he say? >> reporter: yeah extraordinary tales that we're hearing not just from the taxi driver but other people who managed to walk off that wreckage. it's extraordinary. we saw it being lifted out of river yesterday and to think anybody managed to get off alive is simply extraordinary. that taxi driver the wing of the plane clipped the top of his cab as he flew over missing a densely populated suburb of
4:17 pm
4:18 pm
miracle that the taxicab driver and the passenger survived. thanks to you. we'll keep you updated. we're learning how some of the 14 passengers who survived may have done so. speaking to reporters from his hospital bed, a 72-year-old passengers 72 years old. here is what he remembered from the crash. >> translator: shortly after take off i felt something wasn't right. something was wrong with the engine because i always take this flight. i told the girl to release her seat belt hold on to the chair in front and cover her head with clothes. not long after the plane went down. >> she was the sole survival from a vietnam airline planes. there was 31 on board. she was seriously injure broken bones, collapsed lung but she survived eight days until
4:19 pm
rescued. also with me richard quest. you weren't wearing your seat belt. that could have been very important in your survival. as we're awaiting this press conference we have learned there was one crew member to make it out alive. she had had prior to take off, during take off, after take off, constant contact with the cockpit. what she knows could billion very be very important in. >> absolutely. i believe in this case what happened happened very quickly and sudden. it's unlikely she would have been told is we've got an engine problem. she might no did the captain have a problem with the engine or abnormality. >> there might have been a conversation about it. >> right. let's talk about the passenger we just heard. the 72-year-old man said he took his seat belt off. asked the woman to do the same thing, wrapped his head in
4:20 pm
clothes because he thought that might cushion any impact. i know you were not wearing your seat belt as well. you think that could have been something that might have helped in terms of survival. >> i think it might have helped. i didn't because i was claus trau i sat down and it was going across my chest. it's a different seat belt than i was used to. >> not just the low lap belt. >> i felt constrained. i didn't put it. i didn't follow that rule. i believe it might have -- i wasn't flying around the airplane like a piece in the dryer. everyone else got crack, their ribs into their lungs. i think that's what most people got killed by. >> i went flying and woke up on
4:21 pm
the other side of the aisle where i was sitting. i went flying in the plane. >> richard, what do you make of the fact that the two survivors beat the odds and i don't know about the rest but they were not wearing seat belts. >> in many incidents just as you've described, exactly as you described. what happen s the plane crashes, breaks open and people are ejected. the survivors are ejected from the aircraft. that's how they survive because they're not stuck in the water or wreckage. they are thrown clear. it's a well known syndrome. you have to balance that with the fact that if the plane, not in this case. if the plane makes an emergency landing, bounces alone turns upside down. are you safer strapped in or are you much greater risk rolling
4:22 pm
around like a ping-pong ball. >> you just don't know. the seat is built for the g forces that you're going to feel on an emergecy landing. >> when your plane crashed you were unconscious and you woke up and somehow managed to get yourself off the plane. i know that was a moment where you don't fully remember. for the survivors of this crash, at least 15 of them, what might have gone through their mind in that first moment? >> i felt i was screwed is what i felt. okay i was the only one. i heard people some moaning but that's really think that's it. immediately you realize it's in one second. the next thought is what do i do next. it was my thought. >> then you fought for survival and you did. >> and i did. i just did what i had to do. >> she has a wonderful back about her experience and her life afterwards with her wonderful daughter. thanks so much to both of you.
4:23 pm
the key to the investigation to what brought down that plane in taiwan are the two dash cam videos. they are heart stopping images. >> reporter: the number of stunning, horrifying plane crashes caught on video has risen sharply if recent years given investigators a powerful new tool when planes go down. >> oh my god. >> reporter: for example, when this jet crashed in san francisco, video clearly showed it touching down way too short of the runway. when this cargo plane crashed in afghanistan, a dash cam waptured the tortured final moments as the plane went nose up then fell back to earth and exploded in ball of fire. that video pointed investigators to cause. >> first thing that came to mind
4:24 pm
was, to me the airplane was overgross weight or overloaded or the load was not balanced and because it looked like the airplane wads strugs struggling to fly. >> reporter: the idea heavy military equipment broke loose inside the plane remains under serious consideration as investigators continue to scrutinize the video frame by frame. experts say video evidence must always be paired with other findings. sometimes it shows what's hard to know. did a wing break off. did plane bank too sharply or was the crash deliberate. if images from outside are helpful, images from inside are even more so. this video shows the final moments of a small plane in idaho. >> i remember hitting the trees
4:25 pm
and it sounded like rap edid gunfire. >> reporter: nobody died but it's showing that cameras should be in the cockpit. still, the explosive growth in cell phone crams hasameras have increased the incident that any accident might be recorded. it all matters. >> something is wrong. look at him. >> reporter: this someone of the earliest films of a fatal air crash in 1931. even then it was clear any images of an accident while in progress can make a huge difference in figuring out why it happened. tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> incredible. next the measles out break hitting a day care center. as many as five infants may be infected by unvaccinated

4:30 pm
the measles outbreak is growing and infecting the most vulnerable vulnerable infecting babies who can't get the vaccine. two babies have tested positive. the spread of the virus has been blamed on the anti-vaccination movement. what are officials saying about the cases with the babies? >> reporter: you can understand the parents were upset when they heard the news. officials came to the day care and made sure they did a thoroughly cleaning overnight. it was open this afternoon. we tried to talk to a couple o of parents. one parent said she had her kids here for the last eight years and believered they handled everything very well. all kids who haven't been vaccinated have been sent home
4:31 pm
for the next 21 days. everyone is thinking about the five kids with signs of the measles and hoping they will pull through okay. >> do they have idea whether the cases here are linked to any other cases at this point or do they just not know? >> reporter: honestly that's the big question this evening. everybody wants to track down where this started. what we're told now is they don't have an idea where it started. they believe more kids may get sick from this. right now they're saying they have done a thorough cleaning and very cautious out here in the parking lot with us this afternoon. >> all right. thank you very much. it's so awful. if they were under one, too young to have had the first of the two mmr shots. tonight we're learning new details about the deadly collision of a commuter train and suv that killed six people. the driver only had be 39 seconds when the crossing lights
4:32 pm
began began flashing and the crash. questions about what she was doing on the track. >> reporter: a beloved mother and wife of three girls. >> her girls adore her. her husband and her very close. it's a beautiful family unit. >> reporter: friends and loved ones grappling with how her life would have been cut so short. >> it's tragic accident. it was not her. she was not careless person. >> reporter: just 49 years old she was driving the suv that was struck on the track. she's among the six people who perished. >> a fire at the front of the train. one possibly trapped in the train. >> reporter: rick wads in the car behind brody and recounted the fatal moment. >> as we're watsiting to cross the tracks the gate comes down and
4:33 pm
hits the top of her her. waiting for her to back up but she gets out of car. she gets out and walks around the back and looks at the arm that's on the back of the car. she looks at me. i gestured her to come back. i back up again further to even indicate there's plenty of room to back up and she turns, walks and gets back in the car, and moves forward and at that in insignificant the train came prp. >> reporter: eyewitnesss say a separate accident backed up traffic and many drivers took an alternate route to avoid it. they are trying the recover data from the memory modules in the suv. >> we found the crossing arm and the traffic signal. they both operated as designed. there were no problems found. >> reporter: brody worked
4:34 pm
alongside virginia at this jewelry store for ten years. >> she had a million dollar smile. she, to me was a saint because she's one of the most selfless person i've ever known. >> reporter: she was driving home from work when she was killed. >> one word she just had a beautiful soul. she looked for the good in others. >> reporter: her husband posting this message on facebook thanks all who shared their condolences. >> reporter: just tonight we have learned from investigators that the train was traveling within the legal speed limit when this horrific accident happened. also this week new york governor saying it does not appear that ellen was trying to beat the train but rather likely just confused. she leaves behind her husband, three beautiful girls age 15 to 22. she'll be remembered in services
4:35 pm
here tomorrow. >> thank you very much. live where that horrible accident happened. i want to bring in rail record engineering gus. just to give people a better sense of what happened here i want to show them the google street view of the railroad crossing. this is where this happened. she drove her suv beyond that white line that you can also see on your screen. then the gate hit the back of her car. it's unclear if her car was actually on the tracks. it was past the gate. how far it was on the tracks, we don't know. she got out of her car and got back in and drove forward instead of back ward and got struck by the train. what could she have done? >> well, if she wanted to get off the tracks she could have backed up. the gates are designed to be fringeable. that means they're breakable. they would have broken or at the very least she could have run
4:36 pm
away from the car, away from the crossing in the direction the train was coming. she would have survivored. the train may not have hit the suv or may have damaged front end. whether the outcome would have been different for the people on the train, i don't know. that's what the investigators will find. certainly backing up was an option. >> of course given we know the car was partially on the tracks that's what the man behind her said there was room to back up. the ntsb is looking into this as we know. officials saying there were 39 seconds from the time the lights began flashing to when the train came through. 39 seconds sounds like a short amount of time. people always want the times to be shortser. is 39 seconds when you look at the accident happening now, enough. is it safe? >> i would have to say yes. the federal regulation say the
4:37 pm
minimum time for those lights to be flashing is 20 seconds. each crossing is a evaluated independently to determine what is sufficient time to alert the drivers that the crossing is going to be active. for cars back up there to be able to clear so there are no cars on the crossing when the train arrives. >> in a situation like this she perhaps realized what happened. it's dark. maybe she didn't see him. maybe she gets in her car to back up and trying to be calm and she's so calm and hits the accelerator. we don't know what happened. when you're in an emergency situation, all of a sudden time seems a lot shorter. >> that's right. the best thing to do for drivers
4:38 pm
is to stop so you can see those flashing lights. then whether you can see the painted line or not, you know you are safe if you are behind that gate arm. >> is there anything you can, they said the big shock is how it is possible that the train car itself was damaged and those people inside lost their lives and the horrible tragedy of this. that's not happened before. they didn't understand how that could have happened. is there anything that makes since how hitting a car on the track, happens frequently resulted in people dying on that train? >> i think it had to do with the fact the third rail was involved. maybe punctured the gas tank and the air rushing by blew it back on the train. >> all right. >> the investigators will find that out. >> thank you for your time. we appreciate it. thank you. next nbc brian williams

nbc nightly news anchor and managing editor brian williams facing new questions about he lied about being on a military plane that was hit in iraq. he apologized to viewers but some don't think he went far enough. >> reporter: a mea culpa from one of the most trusted newsman may not be enough. >> i want to apologize. i was instead in a following aircraft. >> reporter: nbc anchor brian williams is blaming a foggy memory for his embellishment. saying i would not have chosen to make this mistake. i don't know what screwed up in
4:44 pm
my mind that caused me to con flat one aircraft with another. he was embedded with u.s. troops. a helicopter was forced down but not the one he was on. here is he how reported it at the time. >> suddenly without knowing why we have been ordered to land in the desert. on the ground we learned the airline ahead of us was almost blown out of sky. >> reporter: over the years the story changed. in 2013 he told david letter man this version. >> two of our four helicopters were hit by ground fire including the one i was in. >> reporter: this version last friday during a tribute to the veteran. >> the helicopter we were travel in was forced down by being hit by an rpg. that's when soldiers who were there wrote sorry dude i don't remember you being on my aircraft. i do remember you walking up about an hour after we landed to ask me what had happened. others called him out as well
4:45 pm
prompting williams to apologize on facebook and on the nightly news. >> was a bungled attempt to me to thank one special veteran and by extension our brave military men and women, veterans ever where, those who have served while i did not, i hope they know they have my greatest respects and also my apology. >> reporter: not everyone is piling on. the pilot of the helicopter williams was in said it was hit by small arms fire. >> we took small arms fire. all i know is one rpg was fired. it struck the lead aircraft. i agree he needed to apologize and get the record set straight but i don't take offense to it personally no. >> reporter: the pilot may be shrugging it off but media critics are not and neither are some employees at nbc. they are wondered what the fall out will be and whether he's damaged the network's credibility along with his own. >> least had ten years to apologize but he did so only
4:46 pm
after the soldier started speaking out on facebook. the dude i don't remember you being on my aircraft. somehow the public reacting to this? >> there is continued anger at nbc and the rank and file. the executives are standing by brian williams. they haven't come out publicly and said so. they don't want to inflame the situation but they believe they can ride this out. there's a hashtag on twitter, brian williams misremembered. it's showing world events where he wasn't at. some of these are funny. he's been working his whole life to gain credibility and he has a lot of it but this threat tennessees a lot of that. it's not going to disace peer overnight. this kind of meme threatens a lot of that.
4:47 pm
i wonder what happens a week or month or year from now when he covers a big story and people are making fun of him. >> brian thank you very much. a great report. new developments in trial of aaron hernandez. did police mishandle crucial forensic evidence? plus it's throw back thursday. the reunion everybody is talking about. meet the world's newest energy superpower. surprised? in fact, america is now the world's number one natural gas producer... and we could soon become number one in oil. because hydraulic fracturing technology
