friday's attack at the airport in fort lauder dale, florida. the suspect,26-year-old esteban santiago now faces federal charges that could carry the death penalty. he traveled to florida from alaska where authorities say he was already on the fbi's radar. cnn's dan simon has more from anchorage, alaska. >> i am standing in front of amo tell for transients. this is one of esteban santiago's last known address. fbi was here recovering evidence. this could be an important part in terms of piecing together santiago's last few days before he went to fot. lauderdale and carried out that shooting. in alaska, they seem to be saying, they did everything according to protocol.

when he went to the fbi office and said he was hearing voices, they said they referred him to the local police department and ultimately facilitating a mental health evaluation. >> in november, 2016, mr. santiago walked into the anchorage, fbi office to report that his mind was being controlled by u.s. intelligence agency. during the interview, he appeared agitated, incoherent and made disjointed statements. they were contacted by the fbi about a mentally ill person. they arrived on scene and were informed he had arrived at the fbi building asking for help. santiago was having terrorist thoughts and believed he was being influenced by isis. he had a loaded magazine on him but left his firearm in his vehicle prior could contacting agents. >> we know that he had multiple

interactions with anchorage police over the past 12 months. one of those resulted in a pair of charges. santiago broke down a bathroom door at his girlfriend's house as well as an assault charge. those charges were set to be dismissed in march assuming santiago lived up to the court's conditions. the bottom line here is there seems to be a host of mental health issues and they are going back and look at all their interactions to see what, if anything, they missed. dan simon, cnn, anchorage, alaska sxwchlt the alaska. >> relatives say he was a chinged man when he returned from a u.s. tour of duty in iraq. cnn spoke to his brother. he says, despite the voluntary mental health evaluation, he still didn't get the psychological help he needed. >> i want to clarify thr for the puerto rican people, the federal

government already knew his reaction. they already knew the thoughts that he was having and how they weren't good. he, himself, went after them to ask for help and they did nothing. they had him hospitalized for four days and then they let him go. how are you going to let someone leave a psychological center after four days when he says he is hearing voices. the cia is telling him to join certain groups. this was in november. he was a peaceful person, amicable. everyone that knew him would say the same thing, he was an amicabl person. he would always help me. he would always do favors for people. various people have supported me telling me they know him and that they didn't treat him in enough time. these are people who know they

didn't treat him, who know what veterans suffer from when they come back from the war. there are several of them that get help and several others who, well, don't get the same follow-up. not everyone has the same reaction when they return from war. some are better and some -- not so much. it is too early to know our family's plans. we haven't been able to speak to him. the authorities haven't. the government agency has come here to give us the notice that which can't speak to him. i would like to talk to him. the first thing i want to do, talk to him to see how he is doing. i don't know when the trial will be. i was told soon. they are saying -- some channels

are saying that he was muslim. what happened was, when he went to iraq, he bought a scarf. he bought it as a souvenir. he took the photo with it as a memory of what he bought in iraq p. that was it. he didn't belong to any radical group. we were born under the christian faith. >> santiago's brother speaking there. court documents showed the suspect told officials he loaded his gun in a bathroom after he arrived in ft. lauderdale and shot at the first people he saw in a baggage claim area killing five people. shelton fox with wvsn spoke to a survivor. >> reporter: the casings were flying all around us, she says. the grandmother of 13 from near green bay, wisconsin, had just landed in ft. lauderdale for a vacation in the sun. she wound up in the hell that was terminal 2's baggage claim,

walking among the dead and the wounded without a scratch, her husband was also uninjured. i sat next to her on the plane, the woman says, and nearly ten hours later, while waiting in port everglades ride p, she told the rest of the story. >> the lady killed was my seatmate on the plane and she was standing right next to me. i gave her a gift. she turned around. i turned around and the pop started. we hit the ground. i turned around and she was shot in the head and killed. >> reporter: that shooting victim's husband was killed too. >> her husband was shot and the guy next to him was shot in the cheek and the guy next to him was face down. he was dead. >> reporter: it is part of an accused masked killer's path of destruction. >> he reloaded. he is walking with his arms

straight out and stone faced. >> reporter: did the man say anything when he was firing? >> i didn't hear anything. people were yelling, get down. i have a strong belief in a higher power and i know someone was watching over us. >> reporter: that was sheldon fox. cnn has learned the names of two of the five people killed, terry an dress, on vacation, a ship worker from virginia, celebrating his 63rd birthday with his wife. a friend says he was the ultimate family man. a great-grandmother from georgia, she flew in with her husband. her priest says she was joyful, loving, and caring. back to other news. a top russian lawmaker is ridiculing a u.s. intelligence report na says vladmir putin personally ordered an i fluns

campai influence campaign to boost donald trump's election. >> president putin is not engaging or making any comments. saturday, it is russian orthodox christmas. the president was shown going off to church but making absolutely no comment. the russian media are commenting. essentially, what they are doing is dismissing and laughing at this report. they are not engaging with any specifics. in fact, in many of the reports, they are saying, there were no specifics. the editor and chief of r.t. television mentioned liberally in that report, laughed at it and said, this is the laugh of the year. are you kidding? she said the information contained was outdated and, in fact, wrong. another person who is very

influential in the twittersphere, a member of parliament, said, quote, the mountain gave birth to a mouse in other words, he is saying all of the accusations are based on confidence and assumptions. he mentioned the u.s. was just as confident about the fact or the allegation that saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction. meanwhile, president-elect trump is tweeting about an improved relationship between russia and the united states. there is no direct reaction but obviously the russians have been saying for quite some time that is precisely what they want. they seem to be counting down the days until he is inaugurated. let's look in a bit more detail at those tweets that jill mentioned. on saturday, donald trump wrote, having a good relationship with russia is a good thing, not a bad thing.

only stupid people or fools would think that it is bad. we have enough problems around the world without yet another one. when i am president, russia will respect us far more than they do now and both countries will perhaps work together to solve some of the many great and pressing problems and issues of the world. >> for further insight, let's bring in scott lucas, a professor of international politics at the university of birmingham here in england. thanks for being on the program. i want to ask you about your reaction to those tweets. what might a good relationship with russia look like? >> well, for donald trump, it is one in which he gets to be best friends with vladmir putin and the two men create their own image of the world. the problem with that is that it ignores the fact that russia has its own interest. putin has his own interest and they very aggressively have pursued them. they are pursuing them in

eastern europe, the middle east and they pursued them by int vining in the u.s. election. cold fact. so trump is trying to sweep all of that away and say, oh, well, we can be best friends. at the same time, however, remember, that he is saying we should have a nuclear arms race, which doesn't seem to fit very well with an improved relationship. this is very much trump's personal opinion. >> is there an element of, you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours. >> he has dismissed the solution that russia's influence has any control on his victory. is there anything, this is payback time and i owe you one. >> i wouldn't call it payback. donald trump has always put an admiration for putin above any type of consideration of sp specific issues between the u.s. and russia. remember, during the republican primaries, he talked about putin being this great leader. trump did not address the fact

that while we do not want is to go to war with russia, there are issues of conflict. remember that russia annexed crimea two years ago leading to u.s. and european sanctions. he did not address the russian involvement in the syrian civil war. it is more trump's narcissism rather than any type of sensible or coherent approach to foreign policy. >> so much has been made of donald trump's rhetoric, if you like, not least the language he uses on twitter as well. what do you make of this stupid comment? that anyone that effectively disagrees with him is branded as stupid? is this a sign o mof more to co? >> i think there is something being missed about the latest tweets. truchl h trump has shifted. he is no longer talking about the intelligence behind the russian hacking being wrong. he is no longer criticizing the

intelligence agencies as he was all through last week. he said only a few days ago, i know what really happened about hacking and i'll tell you and he never did. he is saying everyone is stupid. let's be nice to russia. he is on the defensive over the allegations in the report released on friday about the extent of russia involved. what might russia have to gain if it is accepted that it did interfere with the u.s. election and backed trump? what does russia get out of it? >> what russia got and it is clear from the unclassified version of the report and it will be to a greater detail in the top secret version. they kept hillary clinton out of office. putin personally does not like hillary clinton. in his eyes, clinton and others in the obama administration called him an illegitimate president. if clinton became president, there would be a much tougher

u.s. line over the middle east, including syria and a much tougher line over the u.s. and cry m crimea. >> thanks for your insight. >> thank you. now, first, the southern insight was hit and now the east coast is getting walloped by snow, ice, and bone-chilling temperatures. we are tracking the dangerous winter storm next. plus, four people now face charges in the kidnapping and torture of a chicago teenager. what the judge said when they appeared in court coming up.

the vatican city in rome, pope francis has just baptized 28 newborn babies in the sistine chapel, marking the feast of the

baptism of the lord. cnn's senior vatican analyst, john allen joins me live from rome to explain the significance of this in the christian calendar, john. >> good morning, hannah. happy sunday to you on this very chilly roman morning. in many ways, working in the vatican is a sort of tough gig. long hours, you have to work the holidays. the pay isn't that great. this is one of the perks. if you have a child during the course of the year, you have an opportunity to have that child baptized by the pope himself. as you indicated, the pope baptized 28 children this morning, 13 girls, 15 boys, all the children of vatican employees. this is one of there rare liturgies where it is not in the basilica or out in st. peter's square. this is a very intimate thing.

what the italians would call a dell afamilia. we heard pope francis give a very brief extemporaneous whomly to these families about the importance of bap sictism as introducing their children to the faith. he also, as he has in the past, hannah, struck a very intimate note by telling the mothers in the sistine chapel that if their children are hungry, they can go ahead and breast feed them. don't be afraid, just like mary breast fed jesus, the baby jesus after christmas. so this is very much a family atmosphere this morning, hannah and these are memories that these families will cherish for the rest of their lives. >> what does it mean then for these lucky 28 babies going forward? do they grow up with some kind of special access to the vatican and to the pope?

>> well, i mean, theologically, sacramen sacramentally, this means the same for any child baptized anywhere by any priest anywhere in the world. having spoken to these families in the past who have had the opportunity to have their children baptized by the pope, this is a story they will tell their kids as they are growing up. the picture of the pope baptizing today will be on the mant mantles of their homes for the rest of their lives. it is not a v.i.p. pass in terms of access to the pope going forward. on the other hand, when your mom or your dad works in the vatican, typically, you do have a little bit more access than the ordinary person. certainly, as they tell their friends in school and as they tell their own children one day

this moment is going to mean something to them for the rest of their lives. >> they have certainly gained bragging rights, if nothing else. john allen, we appreciate it. thanks very much indeed. coming up here on "cnn newsroom," the stars will be glittering on sunday night, the 2017 golden globe award. a look at the big contenders in film and television coming up next.
