fun. >> reporter: it's the height of the summer vacation season here. behind me, just a beautiful beach here. the weather is great. our photo journalist is going to show you a sweep of the beach here. you'll notice there's no one in the water. that's for good reason. gorgeous weather at the height of summer. but they're only going in waist deep, and it's not because the water is cold. >> i grew up watching "jaws" in the '70s. i don't want to relive that. >> this is what they're worried about on cape cod. not far from where "jaws" was filmed, great white sharks are back. >> tuesday was the most recent sightings by a spotter pilot. >> reporter: each measures at least 14 feet. authorities identified 20 of these predators off the cape over the past three years and believe many more are lurking. a group called cape cod shark

hunters tracks, photographs and tags the great whites. we're out off the cape looking for the sharks with john chism. we spot abundant marine life here, including humpback whales. it looks like a harpoon, but it's a listening station. these buoys carry acoustic refer ises that track the migration of great whites. >> we know they're here looking for seals. that's why we place these in strategic locations where we have documented seal predations. >> reporter: the population of gray and harbor seals on cape cod has made a huge comeback in recent years. every expert points to that as the magnet for great whites. here's a pod of seals. this is an area where they've tagged a lot of sharks. we're told the sharks will lurk on the bottom, and come up and grab the seals. scenes like this wonder how

close the sharks could be? this dead seal washed up on shore. things to look for are teeth marks and possible tearing. that would be what you're seeing right here. an expert says this was very likely a shark attack victim. the sharks aren't scaring folks off. they're a top atraction this summer, and even good for business. >> some quality great white shark t shirts being sold. >> folks love the idea of sharks. sharks fascinate people. >> reporter: one biologist points out a human hasn't been attacked in these waters since 1936. but with the seal's proximity to the swimmers, authorities are getting concerned. don? >> thank you very much, brian todd. appreciate it. next, a political debate gets hostile. first, a shoe gets thrown, punches and then a gun comes out. and later, a millionaire adventurer headed to prison for

impossible for more than 40 years. they voted. it was an election for parliament. 200 seats of the new national assembly. the turnout was higher than expected and people lined up to vote in places that were war zones just a year ago. gadhafi ruled libya with no elections. almost 50 people have died in syria today just as the united nations acknowledges that its mission to syria has failed. that comes in a u.n. report obtained by cnn. it recommends one of three new actions, withdrawing the 300 person u.n. team from syria, increasing the team's size and giving members armed protection, or retooling the current team's overall mission. reports from lebanon seychelles fired during clashes in syria landed in a lebanese down, killing at least one person. another source says two people were killed and anywhere from two to four others were injured.

at their disposal to make sure that that child's reading level goes up. one of my biggest us frfrustrat is that teachers don't work hard enough to effectively teach children to read. i'm talking about reading for understanding. i'm talking about being able to read and make deductions and have a conversation with the author. you know that's the expectation of reading. so the expectation is that you will teach children to read. you know what's exciting? graduation. when i look up into my students faces, i see pride. you know, i have done something worthwhile. when i earned my doctorate through university of phoenix, that pride, that was on my face. i am jocelyn taylor. i'm committed to making a difference in people's lives, and i am a phoenix.

all right. it's buzzing everywhere. the biggest entertainment story, it's till the split between tom cruise and katie homes and the rumors that scientology played a role in the split. katie holmes, who was raised catholic, has filed for sole custody of their daughter. here's cnn's tom foreman.

>> reporter: when it comes to scientology, tom cruise may well be the faith's most combative faith defender. >> do you know what ritalin is? it's a street drug now. do you understand that? >> the difference is -- >> no, matt, i'm asking you a question. matt, i am asking question. >> there's abuse. >> you don't know the history of psychiatry, i do. >> reporter: although he joined scientology in the '80s, over the past decade, his identification with the group has been much more pronounced. he's explained his beliefs in the press and the star giving a military salute to a scientology leader -- >> i think it's a privilege to call yourself a scientologist. it's something that you have to earn, because a scientologist

does -- he or she has the ability to create new and better realities and improve conditions. >> reporter: many of his statements underscore a central lesson of the faith, that its followers can accomplish great things. >> when you drive past an accident, it's not like anyone else. when you drive past, you know you have to do something about it, because you know you're the only one that can really help. >> reporter: such talk echoes teachings laid out in the '50s by the founder, l. ron hubbard. he created an outline for conduct and advancement. for example, through counseling sessions referred to as audits, followers are supposed to be led toward positive thinking and achieving their goals no matter how ambitious. listen again as cruise talks to fellow devotes about world leaders. >> they want help and they are

dependent on people who know. that can be effective and do it, and that's us. >> reporter: that was 2004. by 2005, cruise was expressing even more enthusiasm over actress katie holmes. most notably by jumping around on oprah's sofa. so what happened? holmes, who was raised catholic, is believed to have converted to scientology as her relationship with cruise grew. but in the wake of their split, there are concerns of her daughter being raised in the faith. holmes' attorney caused the divorce a private matter and said the primary concern is her daughter's best interest. cruise's attorneys said his client hoped the divorce would not be contentious.

>> i looked and i thought, what a beautiful thing, because maybe one day it will be like that, you know what i'm saying? maybe one day it will be like that. wow, sps, they'll just read about those in the history books. >> reporter: whether in of this plays into the split with holmes is unknown. but when cruise and nicole kidman divorced, similar speculation appeared. kidman never seemed to fully embrace scientology and after the breakup, she was described as enjoying a homecoming in the catholic church. as for cruise -- >> i would do it the way i do everything. there's nothing part of the way for me. >> reporter: there is no sign he

has any intention of backing away from his controversial faith. tom foreman, cnn, washington. to get more insight into the church of scientology, i sat down with co-editor dan gillgoth and asked him is scientology a cult? >> well, it depends who you ask. scientology is a relatively new religion. it was born really with the first church of scientology in 1954. and almost from its inception there's been all of these battles whether it's a true religion or a cult. and you have challenges not only from religious groups who say it's not a true religion. you have challenges also from the world of science, which disputes a lot of what scientology says about mental health. you have challenges really from the irs, who didn't acknowledge scientology as a religion with tax exempt status until the

'90s. so it's always been this embattled religion and it depends on who you ask. >> it's interesting that you say that, because you can understand why some don't see it as a religion. when you think about traditional religion, there is not one central deity at the top, there is no christ, there is no god, there is no buddha or any figure like that. they talk about ufos and they use it as science. so many people, you can see why people think it's not a religion and more of a science or even sort of a psychology or self-improvement place. >> yeah, it really talks about scientology as being something that you do as opposed to something that you believe. and the whole thrust of the movement is really aimed at replacing psychiatry and rejecting psychiatric drugs. the organizing principle is that we have human beings have this reactive mind that experiences all of this trauma.

not only in our current life, but also what scientologists believe is our past lives. and so there's this whole process, what they call auditing of sitting down and working through these traumas that leads to a state this scientologists call "clear." this is the sort of central principle of what scientology is. it's what the members sort of espouse as the helpful aspects of the religion and what the scientific community takes issue with. >> is it true, is it tough to get out or can you get out once you become a scientologist? some people have these stories about they followed me, they had my personal information, they would harass me. is it that hard to not be a scientologist once you are one, to get out of that religion? >> there are former scientologists that say it's really difficult to get out. and i think that this leads to this image problem for the religion that they're partially trying to solve and always have

by recruiting these high profile hollywood celebrities like tom cruz. so the thinking is this a new religion. they obviously have had pr problems in the past and getting these high profile figures associated with it is one way of adding legit imacy to the tradition. >> you can see why one who is drawn to celebrity may be drawn to scientology because it teaches you that there's nothing that you can't accomplish if you put your mind to it. >> right. i think that's true. and i also think that you can't understand the founding and growth of the church without getting its connection to los angeles. so that the very first church to open up in 1954 was in los angeles. scientology is really the only religion out there that actively recruits among celebrities. so there are all of these centers that are devoted to celebrity recruiting.

so you can understand the appeal to celebrities of this kind of new approach to mental health and it's also a product of the church very conscientiously aiming recruiting efforts toward that community. >> dan gillgoth, thank you very much. to learn more about scientology and read other fascinating stories, log on to cnn's belief blog. ahead, a former wall street banker, a millionaire adventure headed to prison for burning down his own home. but then a deadly decision right inside a courtroom.

years in prison, he covered his face and appears to swallow something. we'll come back to this scene. michael graduated from yale law school, had a career working around the world for wall street investment banks, making several million dollars. he collected picasso artwork, drove a rolls-royce and flew his own plane. >> he was an engaging character. >> reporter: paul ruben spent hours talking to the millionaire. >> he's the smartest guy in the room. he's the smoothest talker in the room. he gets all the girls. he's that guy. he just ran into the brick wall that happens to these characters eventually. >> reporter: the brick wall was this 10,000 square foot home, an exclusive phoenix, arizona enclave. he bought the house in 2008 when the real estate market was collapsing. it came with an interest only mortgage payment of $17,250 a

month. but he had long left wall street and had not worked in several years. and he was quickly running out of money. that's when prosecutors say he concocted a scheme to raffle off the house and in the process, make $1 million for himself. the raffle was an oddly creative way to unload the biltmore house. tickets sold for $25. the proceeds would benefit the child crisis center. to generate publicity, investigators say he scaled mt. everest, doing interviews from the mountain with a local television station. it all played into the mystique. >> we can climb up to 25,000 feet. >> reporter: but he says it was all a sinister ploy. >> what happened was he paid $2,550,000 for the house and set

up with a couple of friends with his a bogus second mortgage designed to increase the value of the house by $950,000 for a second mortgage that didn't exist. >> reporter: you think this raffle was a scam to make a million dollars basically? >> yes. and to be able to look like a generous person who didn't make anything off of it. >> reporter: in april 2009, the arizona attorney general ruled the raffle was illegal, the plan fizzled. at this point, he was six months away from having to make a balloon payment of roughly $2 million to lenders or risk a major jump in his monthly payments. his financial world was collapsing around him. >> i don't think that he really thought this thing through, he and his pals. and it ended up where he had to do something that was pretty wacky, which was burn down his house. >> reporter: in the early morning hours of july 5, 2009, fire engulfed his home. he called for help from his

upstairs bedroom. >> what's your emergency? >> my house is on fire. >> are you going to be able to get out? >> i've got one of those ladders. >> you have a ladder where? >> i would rather work on that than talk to you, so let me get the hell out of here. >> reporter: he emerged from the home wearing scuba gear. jeff peabody is the investigator who handled the case. >> every fireman says he came out wearing a scuba mask and tank and snorkel. >> reporter: he even relived the escape from his hospital bed. >> i realized that i had some air left in that bank. that's what enabled me to get back to the window and climb that ladder. >> reporter: peabody says he found four spots in the house where fires were intentionally set and a long line of phone books that was supposed to help

the fire spread. which brings us back to the courtroom. a jury convicted him of arson. he's facing between 7 and 21 years. after he appears to swallow something, notice as he reaches down and appears to get something from his bag. he then wipes his face, swallows something and appears to swallow again. eight minutes later, he collapses. each though it's not been officially determined what killed him, it's believed he swallowed some type of poison. his attorney says the convicted arsonist showed no signs of preparing to commit suicide. >> it was a shock. we certainly had no idea this was going to happen. i'm not aware that anybody did. >> reporter: ironically, it's jeff peabody, the fire investigator who built the case against him, who tries to help him. but peabody says there was no way to save him. and that his final moments played out in a dramatic fashion just as he had lived his life. >> if he's going to do

something, this would be the time that he would do it. source of like escaping from his house in scuba gear, this was going to be his closure. >> reporter: a grand finale exit. >> yeah. >> reporter: ed lavendera, cnn, arizona. ringo starr turned 72 today and he's still out touring. we'll ask him where he gets his energy. in alabama we had more beautiful blooms... in mississippi we had more good times... in louisiana we had more fun on the water. last season we broke all kinds of records on the gulf. this year we are out to do even better... and now is a great time to start. our beatches are even more relaxing... the fishing's great. so pick your favorite spot on the gulf... and come on down. brought to you by bp and all of us who call the gulf home. i'm one of six children that my mother raised by herself, and so college was a dream when i was a kid.
