an accused murderer says she stopped counting after her 22nd kill. and that for years she has targeted bad people and snuffed them out one by one. the claim has the tabloids calling her a real-life dexter because like the fictional serial killer, she says she kills for justice. police have not confirmed the story. they're still investigating. they say they're seriously concerned about her claims. that's a quote. her real name is miranda barbour, 19 years old, newlywed. she reportedly confessed to straining of murders during a jailhouse interview with the daily item newspaper out of pennsylvania. she says for her three-week anniversary with her new husband, she arranged his first kill. they lured the victim with a craigslist ad and the man deserved to die. the says the victim offered to pay her for sex and he sealed his fate when she lied and and told hem she was unedge, and she

said, quote, her told me it was okay. if he would have said no, would have let him go. he said the wrong things, and then things got out of control. prosecutor says the woman stabbed the victim over and over, 20 times total. all while her new husband, strangled the victim with a cord. now as she waits for trial, she says she wants to come clean about her other victims, potentially dozens of them. rick is here on the news deck. anytime somebody comes forward to claim a bunch of them, sometimes it's stalling tack particular but could be real. >> we have heard about these things before. they're not just dismissing this out of hand. there are skin ticks but others close to the case say she is believable and they're treating this seriously. the fbi's philadelphia division is offering assistance to police and other agencies are checking unsolved cases to see if there might be some connection. she is hip bars along with her husband for the savage killing of a pennsylvania man who responded to the craigslist ad

offering sex for money. police sale she met the man in a mall in the parking lot and her husband was hiding under the blanket in the back seat and the kill was particularly brutal. she claims it was at least her 22nd. she told a reporter she had no regrets. >> you can take all of everything else that she said in the interview and you can take all of the numbers that she threw out and all of that out. the more surprising thing is she said if she not out she would do it again. >> she talked to the reporter. we don't know whether she will talk to investigators and provide any detail of these other murders. >> for a 19-year-old, whale of a history. >> she does. she claimed she was sexually assaulted bay relative when she was four years old, and her mother confirms an uncle went to prison for molesting this girl. barbour claimed she joined a sat satanic cult, and that's the

first time she killed. there's a lot more that we can't get into here. very troubling, and the question now, is she lying or is there some truth? and we have heard there are many 0 bodies and many unsolved murders, but in alaska there are a number of cases that could be related. >> she claims alaska, texas, carolina. >> they have a lot of legwork to do. >> thank you. you heard about the hijacking. a copilot hijacked his own airliner with 200 people onboard by locking the pilot out of the cockpit. he spent to the bathroom and he locked the door. one passenger says the copilot threatened to crash the jet if the plane didn't stop trying to get back into the cockpit -- or the pilot. police say they arrested the copilot after he diverted the ethopian earls jet to geneva and

they say near lay dozen of the passengers were americans. the flight was heading from ethiopia's capitol to rome, and here's the basic flight plan. the pilot went to the bathroom, and the copilot seizees control. police and airport officials say that after he landed the jet, he used a rope to lower himself out of cockpit window. turned himself in, and requested asylum in switzerland. officials say the copilot isthopennan and that -- and that it's unclear why he wants asylum. swiss prosecutors say his chances of winning asylum are quite slim. trace gallagher is tracking this. a lot of passengers on there. what are they saying? >> well, the passengers are telling a very different story an the police. listen to the police in geneva. >> translator: during the entire operation, the situation informed the plane was calm. the 202 passengers and crew members were never threatened or

endangered. >> but the passengers say the pilot was bang only the cockpit door, trying to get in, and that's when the copilot got on the loud speaker and continued making threats. the passengers say the plan began making unusual motions, unusual noises, and that at one point the oxygen masks dropped down and passengers had to assume the crash position as the plane began descending, not mention italian fighter jets were accompanying the plane in for landing, and when the passengers landed they were told to put their hands on top of their heads and walk out single file. doesn't sound calm to me. >> do we know anything about this copilot/high jacker. >> 31 years old, been a pilot for five years for the airlines and at first he called into the control tower in geneva saying he had to land to make an emergency refueling. well, that turned out not the truth, then he finally said, yes, i'm seeking asylum because he feels like he was threatened inside his own country.

the deal is, he likely will go back to ethiopia and be charged with a crime of taking hostages, which holds up to 20 years in prison. the only way that he wouldn't be sent back is if he was facing the death penalty in ethiopia. they're how many rights record has gone down in recent years. >> trace, thank you. >> one of those trucks that pushes planes back from the gate? instead pushed a plane straight -- pushed the truckly to airplane's nose. a picture of the damage. this happened in baltimore over the weekend. quite a mels it was. just right into the nose there. an american airlines official says passengers were boarding the flight when this happened. nobody got kurt but the driver was a little bit banged up from inside the truck there. american reports it cancelled that flight while crews inspected the damage. they don't know whether it was a

mechanical issue or the truck driver's fault. >> jurors could not decide whether the man who fired ten shots at an suv filled with teenagers, killing a 17-year-old, was guilty of murder. but they did convict him of attempted murder of the other guys who didn't die. prosecutors say it happened after an argument over loud music in a parking lot. the gunman claims it was self-defense, and his lawyers say they plan to appeal his guilty verdict. we'll break it down with the attorney and talk about the outrage over this thing in the social world. that's coming up. ♪ ♪

self-defense. he said he thought he saw a shotgun, even though police never found a weapon and even though dunn's fiancee testified he never mentioned a gun to her. after the shooting, dunn drove three miles to his hotel, made a cocktail for his girlfriend and himself, ordered a peas sacker took the dog for a walk, went to sleep, woke up the next day, drove home to brevard and then contacted police, but he did not call 9-1-1 then or ever, and never called an official who was in charge of anything. now after four days and 32 hours of deliberation, a hung jury on the murder charge. but dunn faces a minimum of 60 years in prison on attempted murder cop visitations. actually 20 years per count but if they run them consecutively ininstead of concurrently it's 60 years. his attorneys plan to appeal and prosecutors plan to retry him for murder. eli is a criminal defense

attorney. did you watch this. >> part of it. i paid much more attention to what is happening now that it's over. >> i watched it. i watched a lot of it. when i wasn't here i was watching that thing. i'm not going to say how i felt it should go. but it was interesting that 32 hours later, after all the evidence they'd seen, they couldn't come to a conclusion one way or the other. >> they really struggled and it's interesting because they were able to come to the multiple counts on attempted murder as well as shooting into the teenagers' vehicle, but the jury struggled what to do about the first degree murder charge. >> that was significant. attempted murder, he shot at the vehicle, and none -- the three people with whom he was charged -- by all accounts did not threaten him with anything but the one person did. it appeared what the jury was leaning on was this stand your ground claim. he felt his life was threatened and he had the right to retaliate.

>> there's multiple thoughts. one of it that, and just like the zimmerman case, they didn't actually pursue stand your ground, but when the judge gives the jury the instructions, they give instructions that sound like they are saying because it's self-defense. if you find he had the right, he didn't have to retreat. so sounds like "stand up to stad is in the case. the other thing is premeditation. it goes back to what lawyerslash law school. and jurors get cob fused by it. what's premeditation? doesn't have to be, did he think about it for hours. premeditation can be folder in a second but the jury could have gotten confused. they need to poll the jurors. >> in many parts of the country, the states say, you have a duty if you can to retreat and end this conflict, but in florida in the infinite wiz dom of the florida judicial system, now in

florida they say, you feel like you might be in danger you can go at them and you can kill them. >> we're getting a lot of attention nationwide, the state of florida, with these cases back-to-back. but it's scare where. the legislature had a reason for the law but there's a great danger nat anybody who is being charged with murder could say, i felt threatened. >> the elephant in the room here is this is a bunch of black kids at a convenience store and the guy's girlfriend said, hate that thug music, and the thug word is used, and he says to somebody turn your music down. the allegation is they mouthed at him some bad words, and he said you're not going to talk to me like that, bang, bang, bang, that's what witnesses say. he has completely different story. but to ignore the fact that there are allegations of racism and racial motivated activities here would be to ignore the elephant in the room. >> we don't know what the jury was thinking. 32 hours of deliberations, and they couldn't come up with a result.

>> should they retry this? he's going away for the rest of his life by all conditions. >> we think so. if, as you mentioned, if they run the term consecutively, 60 year sentence is a life sentence for him. the prosecutor really has to look at, does it make sense for taxpayer dollars to retry him on the issue? >> the prosecutor who was in charge said yes. if i'm the parent, i'd feel the same way. >> good to see you. thank you. >> thank you. >> officials rescued more than 20 trapped miners in south africa. they first said a couple hundred. now we hear that maybe some more underground but they don't want to get out of there. they said no thanks. and it's china, remember so there's more to this, and remember the wife who crashed her car into a river, then called her husband to come save her life? hear about this one? you will.

charlotte, north carolina, now. a woman drove into an icy river over the weekend. she called her husband to come save her life and that's exactly what he did. emergency officials say the woman was heading to to work when she hit the pass of ice and skidded into the water. she called her husband right away. when he got there he said he could not get the car door opened so he smashed the window and pulled his wife to safety. >> i'm good. i can swim. i was thinking about the -- i need to get her out because she was suffocating or whatever. so i did what i had to do. >> emergency crews treated her, took her to the hospital. >> it's the bottom of the hour. time for the top of the news. the north korean regime conducted systemic, widespread and gross human rights

violations under kim jong-un and the international community must bring it to a stop. that in short is the finding of a brand new report from the united nations, which includes troubling details of the bowses. the study even crews drawings from a former north korean prisoner who says authorities beat and tortured him because he frequently traveled to china to secure money for his family. he says this drawing depicts how the interrogators forced him to stand in stressful position and adds that prison workers beat him with wooden clubs until he could scream to more. the report cites another former group of prisoners, one who climbs guards kept her in a water tank for hours on end, forcing thor stand on her tip toes to be able to breathe. there will stories stories of lg needles which guards jammed underneath their captives' fingernails and hot sauce they powder on faced.

when prison officials made them sit or neil kneel -- kneel in a single position, punishing those with beat examination starvation, some inmates resorted to eating grass and snakes. the study indicates that kimpeny $650 million a year on luxury items. more than twice the amount his notorious father did. all of this while his people starve to death. >> tara miller is a former cia analyst. is any of this overly exaggerated biased on -- based on our prior knowledge of situations there. >> don't think it's overly exaggerated. the report is 372 pages. and it reads like a combination of a problem from hell and republican of fear, and i use those terms because these are problems that the un ambassador

has written about. we have seen these in documents like iraq, and this reads like those. the amount of atrocities are disturbing, appalling and heartbreaking. >> one thing -- i'm thinking, all right, central african republic, syria, but a nor know, is worse and nobody does anything about it. >> one of the problems is the focus has been so much on the nuclear issue, and let's have the debate turn on the chemical weapons issue, we forgot about they humanitarian aspects whicher eenor -- enormous. >> you wonder, what does it matter what the world does or wants to do as long as you have a member on the security council do block a vote, nothing will change.

>> we do expect that china has already indicated it is not going to take action on the security council. china would be the veto to prevent this from being referred to the international court that the report recommends take action on this, there are other mechanisms can do. they can set up a tribunal. have the general assembly try to set up a tribunal. more targets sanctions with the united states on key officials documented in this report, but when you see this report it's a call to action. and i think that it is just a report, it's not action in and of itself but i think it represents a huge effort on the part of the un to bring this into the public's awareness. people have known about this who study north korea. it's a black hole in terms of specifics but people have known the level of repression going on there, and the torture, mass executions, forced abortions documented in the report.

>> thank you. >> if you're interested in -- weather alert, brand new winter blast. every other day it snowes. waiting for hour 12th winter snow event, slamming parts of the united states, bitter cold, more snow. hitting america's heartland. look at chicago. good grief. said to bring several inches of snow and strong winds and ice for some states and others could see freezing rain. comes days after a powerful storm covered the northeast with snow and sleet, and just after another one did the same thing and another one and another one did the same thing. janice dean, it's starting not even to be news anymore. it's just misery. >> it's over and over and over. if you replay the weather report i did last week and the week before, it would be the same stuff. just different clothing. this is the latest. thousands of flights cancelled in and around the chicago area. a quick five to eight inches on top of 64 inches that they have received all season.

all season. incredible. we should be in the top five snowiest seasons for chicago, and thin this moves east. so winter weather advisories in the pink, and right in time for the commute tomorrow. there's tuesday overnight. moving to pittsburgh, a snowy mix across the virginias, and then into new york city, that's 6:00 a.m. pushing across long islands and new jersey, towards southern new york and connecticut, and that's going to last well into the noon hour. we could squeak out up to five inches of snow in a very short period of time, and then we're going to see that mixing afterwards and then move toward new england for the afternoon community. some areas are getting higher totals around new york city, two to four is my guess. philadelphia, maybe one to two

here. boston, little more in the way of snow totals. and some of the mountains, we could get six to 12 inches. some cities into the fifth snowiest winter. philadelphia tied for the third snowiest winter. we're up to the seventh snowiest in new york city and we still have a lot of winter to go. >> i looked at my phone to the middle of this week, and we're getting above freezing. >> for a very short period of time. let's take a look at it. monday, tuesday, looking -- especially across the south. wednesday, pushing towards the northeast, but the south and across the mississippi river valley, 70s, 83 in corpus christi, and then finally, 52. and you know what happens when things get warm and at storm system? we'll deal with the potential for severe weather and we could see tornadoes because of that warm weather, and then heading into next week, another plunge

of cold air. >> there's going to come a time soon when this will end. it does every year you. think it's not going to end and then it ends. >> in may or june, yeah. >> july. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> have you seen this? you know about this? >> no. >> they've been having these locals -- they don't have a frozen desk outside anymore. this columbus at the abc station. they use a hockey stick to point at the weather map. can you see that? turn up janice's mic. >> points for creativity. >> we're all looking for shtick. they're actually functional. i don't understand this. >> looking for shtick. i like that. >> that's an icy forecast. >> thank you, janice. >> hockey sticks in columbus. nice to see you. whatever. for the first anytime nearly two decades the great lakes are

almost completely covered in ice. parts of the lakes freeze almost every winter but as of friday 88% frozen solid. the coast guard is trying to maintain shipping lanes on lake michigan, a route that officials say is critical for commerce. so mike tobin has been out, and i saw a piece you did earlier in the driving snow. what work they have to do there. >> reporter: still driving snow. what looks like it might as well be polar bear habitat. that's lake michigan, and the rare event it freezes over, shipping lanes freeze up and the nations depends on the icebreakers with the u.s. coast guard. >> with ice on the great lakes nearing record levels -- >> 25 feet. >> roger. >> -- the crew of the ice brake -- icebreaker, best -- the great lakes are almost entirely

frozen. >> usually the normal plugs can handle the ice but this year it's too think so the coast guard had to bring an icebreaker down to help. >> ice is broken by the ware over the cutter, even the wake is often enough to create a shipping lane. >> what we're into now is called wind rows where the wind has driven the ice to stack up. it's thick and the ships can't get through and it that's why they need the coast guard to break. when it gets thick like this, all the icebreaker can do is ram the ice, black up, ram it again until they carve a path. >> sometimes it takes several hours. >> back out live. this ice stacks up on itself. just moments ago sounds like thunder. we could hear the ice cracking. one of the commodities that can't get through? road salt. desperately in need for that right now.

so, given the conditions, we're going to depend on the guys to open up a lane, shep. >> mike, standing out of the frozen lake. warm weather is not the problem in the winter olympics in russia but it is this year, a heavy fog in the mountains, so thick that officials have postponed snowboarding and biathlon events. one day it was warmer in sochi than in tampa. so, i don't know how they made the decision to put this thing there i hope putin is happy because he's the only one. there's fog here on the lift here. skiers who are having problems, and now they postponed the same event yesterday due to fog. a view from higher up the mountain here. you can barely see the lift chairs in the background through the fog. the signs are even hard to read. fog in front of the information board stating men's snowboard cross-seeding phase has been cancelled. snowboarders getting on the

chair lift. limited visibility on the mountain. and then the view from the grandstands, sun in the background, it's foggy. when there's a lot of moisture and the temperature rises, it's foggy. are they going to try to do all that tomorrow instead? u.s.a., u.s.a. >> a new warning about the dangers of loneliness. serious warning. scientists say loneliness could be as bad for your health as obesity. that's coming up.

>> that was mamma mia, the '70s international pop superstars abba. they brought us the hit song, dancing queen, and waterloo, along with outrageous costumes. a new book reveals that band members wore some of their crazy

outfits for tax reasons. swedish law allowed them to write off the cost of out fits. they had to be so ridiculous that nobody would wear them on the street. i believe that they found success in that front. kennedy -- >> the guy in the latex overalls is so bummed. he is like, really? for tacks? >> that's all they could come up with. >> this onesy. >> they were hit with a $16 million tax liability lawsuit like they didn't pay their tacks, and they won. >> they did. they stuck it to the man. you try wearing platforms, judge. we have wheat dresses now days. >> not -- you may have -- a new

study suggests that not having friends can be hazardous to your health. researchers surveyed more than 2,000 adults ages a 5 and older and say being lonely increases the risk of early death by 14%. lonelier people have health problems, including sleeplessness, high blood pressure and depression, these advice here, spend time with people. friends and family, who make you happy. i guess if you have those things. the problem is everybody doesn't have friends and family to make them happy. >> nowdays we're so segue. ed, the nuclear family is the model. we don't live with extended family members like the turn of the century and for millenia before that. and people sort of -- we don't embrace and exalt the elderly like we should. what happens is when people stop working, they lose touch with their families, lose touch with the people they worked with and went to college with. what the study is saying, it's

hard for someone to get a restful night of sleep when they're alone and don't have their physical faculties to defend themselves against whatever may go bump in the night, and when you lack sleep, that's when transportation and chronic illness goes up, and it's a really vicious cycle. so check on the people you know and love. get them connected, get them a roommate, dog, find people you went to college with. >> surprisingly a large number of people who live in big cities, especially transplants and are young people, end envery quietly and secretly very lonely. >> and we don't have a pill for loneliness. it's not like depression where you can see someone or get a prescription for it, and it's the one aspect of mental health that people don't talk about. people are embarrassed to talk about loneliness, and you get trapped in the cycle where it's hard to get out and meet people and do things. >> you have friends who don't get out much. what are you doing tonight? you never know what they're

doing and later you fine out, you move to a big city like san francisco, los angeles, new york, and you find yourself house poor. you can't afford to go out so you sit inside and don't tell anybody. >> or people who move to places, warmerrer climates where they don't know anybody, thinking they'll spend their golden years in a warm place, and they don't know anywhere there, siso they sit inside. >> we have responsibility as individuals to help individuals who might be lonely. check on people, get a dog. >> don't just assume because you call someone once every few weeks, that's enough. take them out. force them to do karaoke. seek some abba. >> i don't know. did you hear about the pope? >> i know we have a new one. saw the white smoke and everything. >> he has new passport. mark has a -- >> we have never seen anything like this before because most folks get a special vatican fancy passport number one, he

wanted to stay with his roots and got it from his native argentina, brought in a photographer to take it, was fingerprinted, and they did not rush it for the pope but he got it in two days. >> that's impressive. argentina is quicker than we are. >> has his real name. they were nice enough to cut out his social -- his personal info before they sent this out. >> does he have dual citizenship. >> you automatically become a vatican citizen, but rather tpa5 tuesday of his own money. >> kennedy, this pope -- talk about people's poem -- pope. this guy lives up to it. >> the guy is put something thought into staying in touch with his humanity, but a it's the mundane tasks which makes the difference. >> makes him more approachable. >> it does. this is the latest thing he is doing to be the pope of the people.

>> the stories we heard when they said he was going out in the middle of the night to do nice things for poor people. >> exactly. selling off his motorcycle as well. >> security risk, but -- thank you, mark. >> i don't know if i were the vatican security, i might feel otherwise, but good for everybody else, i suppose. >> probable my knows some ninja skills. >> probably does. she was an olympic snowboarder. >> i wouldn't go that far. i wasn't in the olympics. >> it's very small. you're a world-class snowboarders. >> no. but i appreciate that. >> very modest. actually won the election in. >> shaun white got nothing on my medals. >> an asteroid sed -- set to fly by earth. fear not, it's almost cavuto time. scientist say it will miss us. they're presumably correct, but you may get to see something. we'll tell you how and where and when and all that stuff.

a gianting a steroid is coming close to earth tonight, according to scientists. a space rock about the size of three football fields is flying past the planet at 27,000 miles an hour or so. they say the asteroid is almost 900 feet across, and here's the comparison. that is the height, as you can see, the height of new york city's chrysler building. scientists say that's asteroid has no chance of actually hitting earth. phil keeting is in our south florida newsroom. we witnessed almost exactly a year ago these rocks can sometimes surprise us. >> nobody saw that space rock coming until it was streaking across the russian sky in what is believed to be the most
