families and injured three others. a terrorist who wasn't on anyone's radar. authorities beefing up security. the feds digging through clues to figure out why this happened. >> investigators focusing on his social media posts and authorities telling cnn he was not on their radar. that's what worries them the both. we have this live in chattanooga. what have you learned for us? >> good morning, alisyn. what you mentioned, the most striking detail in this case the shooter, not on a terror watch list or data base. his friends called him an all american guy, an athlete, an engineering student, not someone with a clear motive to do something so extreme. >> as far as we know at this if you thinkture, there are no safety concerns for the general public. >> reporter: in a press conference overnight, the department of justice and fbi reassuring the public they

believe the 24-year-old acted alone in his shooting rampage thursday morning. he was carrying out the deadly attack on the final day of ramadan, who officials are investigating his possible motive. >> we don't have anything that ties him to an international terrorist organization. >>reporter: he first headed toward the military recruitment center driving by and shooting out the window. >> one shot then endless shots, one after another, unloading. >> reporter: then the gunman headed seven miles away to a navy operational support center where he ran into the front gate. it was a harrowing gunfight since he had so much ammunition. he was strapped with several weapons, including an ak-47 style gun and packed 30-round magazines. he killed four marines and wounded three others before

police shot and killed him. >> our nation mourns the loss the senseless loss of four of our nation's heroes. >> reporter: asking her face be blurred for safety an unidentified relative of the gunman tells kprc the family can't understand what happened. he's a devoted muslim and trained mixed martial artist. >> every time he talked to me shook my hand he was smiling, courteous, polite never raised his voice. >> reporter: he recently travelled to jordan or yemen for a period of time. he was supposedly teaching kids wrestling. >> his dad said he moved back home. >> reporter: his high school yearbook photo surfaces along with a quote laiden with the

heavyweight of his actions. my name caused national security alerts. what does yours do? one friend described him as a devout muslim not overly religious. they will look at if that chanced. one friend says he was joking about the yearbook quote. >> a terrorism task force seeing which direction they are going. we have pamela brown with that. what do we know so far? >> it's being treated as a terrorism investigation by the fbi. authorities are trying to determine an exact motive, what caused a 24-year-old to open fire at these military facilities? he's 24 years old. he was a graduate of the university of tennessee at chattanooga, graduated in 2012 with a degree in engineering.

he's not on u.s. data bases, u.s. terror data bases. he wasn't on the fbis radar. the only run-ins with the law we are aware of was a dui arrest in april. we learned he was born in kuwait a jordanian citizen. a wrestling coach we spoke with who has known him since he was a teenager said he traveled to the middle east a couple years ago. he wasn't sure where but either jordan or yemen. again, he entered the united states with a jordanian passport. on his yearbook we have this quote that says my name cause zs national security alerts what does yours do? not only this but we found a blog rewrote recently. in his blog he talks about his muslim faith. this is part of what he says in the blog days before the shooting. don't be fooled by your desires. life is short and bitter.

the opportunity to submit to allah may pass you by. whether they are so-called scholars or family members that overt you to the truth. there is nothing violent or indicating violence in the blog. the fbi is investigating this trying to verify whether or not this blog did, indeed belong to him. i can tell you that this is exactly what the police have been worried about. someone who wasn't on their radar launching what is unsophisticated attack here. back to you. >> that is one of the most troubling elements of the investigation. pamela thanks so much. officials stepping up security now. federal officials -- about the marines killed. we are live in washington with more. we learned one or two details. tell us john. >> starting at the top, the case

continues to be treated in washington as an act of terror until terrorism is ruled out. homeland security says it is handling security out of an abundance of caution. we don't know the motive. the target seems to have been military installation. authorities on the ground in chattanooga made it clear he's not connected to international terror the gunman not on a terrorism watch list. they know he traveled to the middle east may have stayed there some time. they know he was a muzslim and this has been a summer of threats in responses to concerns including government facilities raising concerns. the official reaction from washington d.c. has been measured. the president of the united states extending his condolences to the families of the victims.

listen. >> it is a heart breaking circumstance for these individuals who served our country with great valor to be -- to be killed in this fashion. i speak for the american people in expressing our deepest condolences. >> now, we know very little about these victims, almost nothing. three of the four are unidentified. we have the name of one of the individuals, who was killed. marine gunnery sergeant thomas sullivan 40 years old. that's about all we know. three people injured in the chattanooga shootings, of course and we continue to keep our eyes on that. >> thank you very much. we also know these four people served for their country. they went into the most dangerous parts of the world, some were injured in that fight. they came home to continue their duty they were unarmed and

wound up being taken for all the wrong reasons. let's figure out the way the investigation goes. we have cnn security analyst. let's stay with the marines. there is a lot of curiosity about them. why weren't they able to fight back. they are unarmed and unarmed for a reason. explain. >> part of it is tradition. for most of the country's history history, you fight wars abroad. if you are home you work in the community, work in shopping malls, trying to recruit people. part of it is we have a legal tradition of separating more abroad and domestic use of troops. there's a tradition there. itis not like people weren't thinking we are not going to arm them because we want them to be unsafe. there's a long history to that. >> do you think, now, there will be a re-evaluation with these

places are targets? >> it has symbolic meaning. it's like an amusement park. it is a place where our military is working, but they are completely vulnerable. i think we will rethink it. the pentagon is what we call force protection. we are going to have to think about it domestically now. >> these were obvious targets. >> yes. >> he went to these places specifically. if we went there because they are unarmed, we do not know. how are they going to look at this guy? the point of curiosity, he wasn't on a list. >> in most of these cases, people look back and say, oh we were investigating him two years ago or a year ago. there's no evidence efs on a list whether federal, state or local. he has a dui, irrelevant for purposes of this investigation. we are going to focus everything on what he was doing, i think

the last 18 months. he seems to have gone dark. people talk about him and what he was doing and where he was looking. where he traveled and who he was with abroad. this is similar to the boston marathon investigation. he went abroad therefore, if this is international terrorism. in the end, it was self-radicalized brother who commits his brother to help him. that may be what we have. >> a couple sources in your community say they will find the footprint very quickly. >> very quickly. >> they will know if there's anyone else or anything else for them to be concerned about. they say the weapons are relevant here not in terms of the raging debate in america about guns but tracking may be helpful because -- >> how did he get them? where did he get the money. if it's the arsenal we expected they are expensive. who helped him get them? there's going to be arrests in this case related to the

acquisition of his weapons. there's no question about it. they will go after the arms sellers. >> now, we keep having situations of lone wolf, coming up with new labels to describe the violence. what does it tell you about how we are progressing in terms of what the threat is and how we evaluate the threat? >> the threat is what we see today, someone who is either on some radar screen but not causing a lot of attention or someone who's never been on a list. >> i'm saying it that way because there is no proof or suggestion this is someone who is ill or disturbed, so move it away from terrorism. they said terrorism early on. >> it should be investigated as terrorism. if it's not, we'll say that. look there's so many pieces of evidence to suggest it is terrorism. the fbi saying it is a terrorism investigation. that's important so we can figure out who might be the next

terrorist or culprit. as i said to you, i don't like the term lone wolf. it makes it seem like they are animals. if we separate them they are fine. these are men and woman in our society being radicalized by the internet or international sources and their communities, their families and everyone around them needs to engage law enforcement to stop these things from happening. >> words matter. this type of heinous violence does qualify you for an animal that's what you have to be to do this. you want to see who else was helping along the way. that's what why means. if this was terrorism, it was misplaced on a jihadi violence. authorities say they will find answers quickly. >> they will. i think in the next week i would suspect either other people brought in or at least

some closure of the investigation. that's important, but, look this is a new world threat. these kinds of cases are going to happen unfortunately, more often than we would like and the fact it was in a place we wouldn't anticipate not new york not boston or los angeles, how pervasive the threat is now. >> sources are telling us it's not about just people anymore. the internet is more than enough. you have to know what he was looking at. thank you very much. as we get the pieces to the puzzle we'll come back to you. coming up on "new day," we are going to talk to the governor of tennessee and get his perspective on which way this is going and what it means for his state. we are going to have the chattanooga mayor, andy berke. same situation for him. alisyn? >> seems we talk about this all too often. now another masked shooter, this one brought to justice.

james holmes found guilty on all counts that left 12 dead and 17 injured. anna cabrera is live with more. good morning, anna. >> reporter: good morning to you, alisyn. it has been 11 1/2 weeks of testimony, hundreds of witnesses, thousands of peoples of evidence and guilty on all charges. that prompted tears and hugs in a courtroom packed with family members and survivors. this is the verdict they waited to hear for years. >> we the jury find the defendant, james egan holmes guilty of murder in the first degree. >> the reading of the verdict lasting more than an hour on thursday. count 20 count 78 count 165. james holmes sealed his fate when he massacred a theater in aurora colorado. ift was a swift decision on the

jury's part taking 12 hours to deliberate finding the 27-year-old guilty on all 165 charges. this isn't about a thing who indiscriminately kills. if you look at it it would kill again if let out. thank god, the jury saw that and saw it quick. it's about these people and these people that were hurt. >> staring stone faced, holmes showed no emotion. >> it's good. it's closure. it's finally over. justice for john and maybe i can really start making sure i put this behind us. >> for the victim's loved ones relief the jury did not buy the defense team's strategy. >> we are happy that this animal this monster will never see the light of day. >> reporter: it was key evidence like his planning notebook and this sanity evaluation that convinced the jury guilty. >> did you have any doubt that

you killed a lot of people? >> no. >> reporter: now the same jury must decide holmes sentence. >> will it ever be over? it's hard to say. some move forward. at the same time we never forget what happened in the wee hours of july 20th at the hands of the shooter. that's the painful part. >> reporter: now the trial moves into a sentencing faze. that could take another month. the same 12 jurors nine women and three men will decide whether holmes should be locked up for life or put to death. chris? >> the u.n. security counsel is expect to ratify the deal. congress has yet to weigh in on the agreement. president obama will meet with the saudi foreign minister. they are security concerns with the deal as well. >> on to presidential politics.

both parties flocking to new hampshire. hillary clinton, donald trump and scott walker all campaigning across the state on thursday. walker taking a swipe at clinton saying she left the world more mess zed up than before she was secretary of state. could president obama ended up in the big house rather than the white house? yes, that's from the president himself. he says the support he got from family made all the difference. take a listen. >> these are -- these are young people who made mistakes that aren't that different than the mistakes i made and the mistakes a lot of you guys make. the difference is they did not have the kinds of support structures the second chances, the resources that would allow them to survive those mistakes. >> the trip to the federal prison marked the first time a

sitting u.s. president ever visited a federal lock up. so, the question now, as disgusting as familiar was this gunman inspired by isis. the why. we are going to explain why the attacks during ramadan are enough. >> chris christie not holding back. what will surprise you? what he said about immigration. we hit the hot topic issues on this one-on-one. >> would you have pathways to citizenship? how much do you think the bridgegate scandal hurt you? can a business have a mind? a subconscious. a knack for predicting the future. reflexes faster than the speed of thought. can a business have a spirit? can a business have a soul?

there is no record of the shooter being on any terror watch list. what does that tell us? joining us is cnn global affairs analyst, bobby gosh. what does it mean that he was unknown? >> the data bases cannot be comprehensive. this is the lone wolf that everyone has feared. it's somebody that flies under

the radar. seemingly well adjusted then suddenly bang. >> you are referring to him as lone wolf. what does your gut tell you about what happened here? >> i wouldn't call him lone wolf yet. the fact he picked two military targets is obviously the leading indicator. there's nothing else. a depressing thing about this is it's happened enough that authorities know where to look. online cell phone records. people know his travel records. when something like this happens, authorities know where to look to find the clues. they have not found any clues linking him to organized group and that is disturbing. it's posz zsible for this to happen or may not. >> they have found a blog that they believe is connected to him. cnn hasn't confirmed that yet, i will read one portion of this blog in jug.

because islam is a religion we need to know about the religion. the more knowledge we have the better our understanding will be. >> the reports he might be connected. i read them thoroughly. if you read nit a certain light, you can take it. leave aside material things. this is normal. islam means submission to god. there's nothing violence in them. >> how do they become radicalized? >> these are only the first two we have found. there may be others to be found. maybe, as they say, it is possible there are other motives. we don't know he is a radical or radicalized muslim. the only thing that the mind jumps to that conclusion is the choice of targets, two military

targets, not one. he shot a recruitment center gets in a car and attacks the naval center. >> there is one detail about the investigation, thus far, into this shooter that jumps out at you and is different from the trajectory we have seen of other people. that is he was arrested for drunk-driving drunk-driving. >> that is unusual. we will find out more. he was going to appear later in court. people who go to jihad are required to spiritually lyly cleanse themselves. some say they smelled marijuana on him. that is very strange. >> and muslim. >> that too. it's hard to tell what goes on inside a person's mind and the definitions of how devout you are can vary and how much you choose to show how developed you are. being developed is normal.

being radical is different. that, by itself is not positive. in isis we hear there's a lot of reports about young fighters who go there, supposedly drawn by the message. many of them quote, you can see on their video, they are misquoting the koran. they are stumbling over the lines. >> what about the call to violence during ramadan during isis. >> there was a spike early on in the month. after that it returned to a normal level of violence which is a lot, unfortunately. it happened on the last day of ramadan. again, he didn't seem to leave a message this is what he was doing. if he was doing it in the name of a cause, he would be more open about that. so far, none of the eyewitnesses said he called out to god while he was doing it. it's a mystery so, far. i think the authorities will come up with a sort of more

complete picture in the next 48 hours or so. so far, it's really hard. we are looking at all the places and for all the clues you normally expect. we are not finding any. >> we will see if they can connect the dots. bobby, thanks very much. good to have you on "new day." chris? >> another story we have been following, a young woman that survived a plane crash. she's speaking about the harrowing ordeal and the painful cries of help she heard from the plane. you will hear from awe tim veatch next. ♪ ♪ when you're living with diabetes steady is exciting. only glucerna has carbsteady clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. so you stay steady ahead.

the fbi now looking for links to terror in thursday's deadly attack on two military facilities in tennessee. four u.s. marines are dead. three other people hurt. security now ramped up at a number of federal facilities. the gunman was taken out by chattanooga police after a long gunfight. now, two blog posts. guilty on all 165 counts. it took a colorado jury 12 hours to return the verdict in the

trial of the movie theater gunman. the jurors did not buy the insanity defense. the same jury will now decide beginning next week if holmes should be sentenced to life without parole or death. el chapo had an 18 minute head start before anyone knew he was gone. no prison employee was assigned to watch the inmate while in his cell. he vanished into a mile long tunnel in the cell over the weekend. over 10,000 police and soldiers searching for him. the sole survivor of a plane crash is speaking auto. autumn veatch was the survivor. both of her stepgrandparents were killed. she's open up to sara sidner about her journey.

>> reporter: 16-year-old autumn veatch was excited when her grandparents offered her to be flown home in a private plane instead of driven home. it turns into terror. >> we almost crashed the first time we went through some clouds. he took a sharp turn and was like whew that was a close one. >> reporter: it happened again. this time the plane crashed in the remote wilderness. >> i'm still panicking, freaking out. they both started freaking out. turn the gps back on then i can't see anything that's going on. so started to go up and then it was white and then all trees and all fire. >> reporter: she got out and tried to save her step grandparents. >> they were both screaming. there was no way i could get to grandma. she was on the far side. if i got grandpa out first, maybe she would come out.

i was trying to pull him out. i couldn't do it. there was a lot of fire. >> reporter: sobbing, she real realized she would die, too, if she stayed put. you must have been so stressed out, scared sad. >> scared. absolutely. i didn't know where i was. i didn't know what city it was or anything. >> reporter: she began walking, hand face and hair burned her body bruised. >> did you think i'm not going to make it? i'm going to die? >> i was freezing. it just didn't seem like i would make it. i don't know anything about outdoor survival. >> reporter: she did make it after two nights and three days in the wilderness. she credits a tip from the survival shows her dad watches, follow the water and live. sara sidner cnn. >> it's a miracle. >> you know it is of course that she was able to walk away from what we watched there. the difficulty she's young.

this is fresh for her. so often, as i'm sure you have seen with these stories, there's survivors guilt. the idea of why i couldn't have done more. hopefully those who love her and surround her in friendship will help her know there's nothing she could have done. >> there's often survivors guilt when everyone else is killed. hearing they were still alive and -- >> but you have to know there are certain thing that is are possible and certain things that are impossible. she has the mystery, why was i spared. she's young to confront that kind of question. >> absolutely. meanwhile, we have other stories to tell you about, including politics. chrischristie is adamant bridgegate is behind him. >> if you haven't found the evidence after 15 months there isn't any. >> what else does he say about his chances and lackluster in

new jersey governor chris christie is two weeks into his 2016 presidential bid. it's been a slow start. at the moment he's behind the pack in a couple key polls. he sat down with us to talk about numbers, iran and the impact of the infamous bridgegate scandal. what do you think of the iran deal? >> it's an awful deal. it could lead to the destruction of israel. we have given the capacity of a nuclear weapon to a nation that's said they want to wipe israel off the map. while they are chanting death to america as well. it's a bad deal. i can't -- i cannot account the president say tlg's no alternative to it. >> what do you think the alternative is? >> walk away from the table ratchet up the sanctions. >> we have heard from the administration sanctions in terms of the allies the sanctions were going away. china and russia were no longer

interested. the british felt they were as far as they weld go. >> there's no evidence of that. that's what the president is saying to justify a bad deal. that's part of your job as president to not allow further nuclear proliferation to the greatest state sponsored deal. the president is lying to us. the president stood up and said inspections anytime, anywhere 24/7 access. what did we find? the document says we could wait 24 days to get access. >> let's talk about your presidential run. in the most recent polls, you are far down in the pack. you are ninth in both of those polls with just 3% and 2% respectively. what's that about? >> you didn't mention the reuters poll that showed me in third place at 9.5%. that will tell you, you have

three poll that is have me anywhere from 2% to 9%. you know what that means? the polls don't mean a lot right now. we are going to go out and campaign and talk about this in detail like entitlement reform america's roll in the worlds. all things i have laid out more specific speeches than anybody else in the race has laid out. i just declared for president. i'm not worried, yet. >> who do you consider your biggest rival? >> i don't think there is one. look at the polls you talked about. there's nobody who is higher than 15%. so i don't know who would be the biggest rival? it's a large field. it's a good field. we are going to see who breaks out and captures the imagination of the voter and who they support. we will find out in february march and april. everybody wants to go to the end of the book now, we are not allowed. >> pundits think one of the

thing that is hurt you, at this point, is the infamous handshake or hug you shared with president obama in the aftermath of hurricane sandy. would you do that the same way today if you had to do it over again? >> i absolutely would. it's my job. it's my job to protect and serve the people of the state of new jersey who just suffered the most devastating natural disaster in the state's history. of course i would treat the president of the united states with respect when he came to visit. >> your approval rating at that time was 77%. the state felt your embrace. nationally do you think that moment however you define it with president obama, do you think that has come to haunt your campaign? >> i shook his hand. i welcomed and thanked him for his help. i thought that's what civilized human beings do to each other. if that's what pop ticks have

gotten to no one should wonder why we are in the condition we are in if we can't be civilized to each other. offering tough politics but civilized to washington. most importantly, what i will bring is my heart and my mind to do my job that the people elect me to do. >> how much do you think the bridgegate scandal, as it's called hurt you? >> it's hard to tell. outside the new york new jersey area. not many people say anything about it. what hurt more than anything else was the unrelenting coverage of it. here is the story. you know all these months later, three independent investigations all came to the same conclusion i had nothing to do with it. >> the u.s. attorney says he is open to new information if it comes out in some sort of witness testimony. that doesn't mean it's a done deal. >> he did a 15-month investigation. i used to do this for a living.

if you don't find the evidence there isn't any. i didn't have anything to do with it. in the end, i don't think people are going to make their decision based on a traffic jam. >> your latest approval in new jersey at just 30%. so what's happened from 77% to 30%? >> 77% is pretty high in a democratic state for a republican governor. if you look at my approval ratings from the day i came into office until now, they have gone up and down. the reason is when i get political capital, i spend it. i take on pension reform and health benefit reform. we take on all the issues going on in the state. when dwrou that you are going to anger people and lose their support. when the programs work i will gain it back. i guarantee you, in a year the numbers will be up. >> reaction?

>> tell me yours. >> good interview. >> thanks. >> strong point when he uses when he has political capital, he uses it. >> that is a good explanation. >> strong point. not a strong point that the bridgegate situation isn't hurting him. it's hard to explain even with the built-in that conservatives won't like him and civility hurts you in politics is sad. something is affecting him in a negative way. >> he says people don't care about bridgegate. perhaps it is covering the poll numbers. >> did he seem as confident as he sounds? >> yeah. he is charismatic. >> does he think he has a shot? >> absolutely. he's doing it for real. we will analyze it with the political panel. >> we may never know the exact motive for the deadly shooting

rampage in cha noochattanooga, but terrorists are treating it as terrorism. coming up -- if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla apremilast. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people who took otezla saw 75% clearer skin after 4 months. and otezla's prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't take otezla if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. otezla may increase the risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. side effects may include diarrhea nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, and headache. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you're pregnant or planning to be.

ask your doctor about otezla today. otezla. show more of you.

welcome back to "new day." you just watched part one of my interview with presidential hopeful, chris christie. we touched on poll numbers and the bridgegate controversy. let's talk about that with our political panel. they are going to break down hillary clinton and donald trump. clinton's first town hall. you have a lot of stuff to talk about. brianna, i don't know if you just saw the chris christie interview that i did. what do you think of his contention the bad poll numbers have nothing to do with bridgegate because it doesn't resinate nationally? >> i think that is something that does resinate nationally.

i think we are seeing this with a number of the candidates as well as with hillary clinton when you talk about this issue of trust and propriety. this is affecting the poll numbers as we get into the political season. we are very far out. you know other presidential cycles where we looked at candidates who are not doing well at this point. you never want to cast a verdict because we are far from the election. at the same time you can see chris christie. he has challenges with this republican primary electorate. >> let's put numbers to the challenges brianna sara as well. the new fox news poll. we have new numbers. the margin of error is the most relevant part of the poll. it's plus/minus 4.5% which puts the entire third tier under the

margin of error. that includes our friend governor christie. sara what do you make of the numbers? >> it's very early. there's a lot of margin for error. there's donald trump, walker and bush at the top of the back. walker is getting a bump from his announcement. he did well in iowa thrks is broader. look for the guys near the bottom they have a lot of work to do to have a national moment. we are looking at the debates, they are set up to bring in the top ten in the poll. if you are one of the people the margin of error candidates at the bottom you want to have a big moment where you punch up to the top tier. it's tough to do. >> brianna, you were at hillary clinton's stop in dover, new hampshire, yesterday. tell us what you thought the headlines were. >> the headline was, well one, i will say this. this was a town hall meeting, her first official town hall
