tv   Shepard Smith Reporting  FOX News  March 10, 2014 12:00pm-1:01pm PDT

12:00 pm
ban webster's and get it over with. >> thank you for sharing your thoughts, including the three guys from the control rom. now time to head over to "shepard smith reporting." >> there is breaking news now on the fox news deck. the united nations security council, scheduled to meet at this moment about the crisis in ukraine. it comes as we hear reports of shots fired at a naval post in crimea. we're monitoring that, and we'll bring you any news that comes from the region. we're also tracking developments in the search for that missing passenger jet. how in the world did malaysia airlines flight 370 just disappear? well there are theories. so let's get to it. >> good monday afternoon to you and yours. first, from fox on the fox news deck this afternoon. every potential sign of that missing malaysia airlines flight has turn out to be a dead end. now three days since one of the
12:01 pm
biggest jets in the skies today simply vanished. investigators are still trying to pin down the motive of the two men who boarded with stolen passports. more on that in a moment. >> first, the latest on the search. investigators say tests proof a couple of oil slicks did not come from the plane as they first thought might have been possible. after a yellow 'object investigators could have been a life raft. turn out to be garbage. and crews on a search plane said they thought they spotted an airplane door but it was gone by the time the ships arrived. each falls lead more agony for the families of the and crew. many relatives are holed up in a hotel in beijing. airline officials told them to prepare for the worst. >> we'll show you where the search is centered. the plane took off saturday
12:02 pm
morning. headed for beijing. probably seen this flight path over and over again. an hour into the flight it just dropped awful the radar. no word from the pilot. no signs of distress, nothing. now the malaysian government announces it has expanded the search west from the plane's intended flight path. for the plane to have crashed here, it would mean that the jet somehow turned back and crossed the entire malaysian peninsula without being detected by any radar operators. now investigators are questioning some travel agents in thailand who say they sold one-way tickets to two men using stolen passports. the agents told the newspapers that the tickets were purchased through a broker in iran, using cash. investigators say at this point there is no indication the men are involved in whatever happened to this plane in any way. the thing is, experts say
12:03 pm
illegal passports are common in asia. let's begin with catherine herridge. what do you know about this irannan? >> as u.s. destroyers and surveillance aircraft scour the region we're told the flight manifest for the flight has been run against what is known as the tide database, the broad babes babes compiled by the u.s. government which includes known and suspected terrorists and there have been no red flags. investigators had the images of they passengers who used the stolen passports from the security checkpoint video cameras and think they have a positive i.d. on one of the men. there's now outreach to form intelligence agencies to verify the name. one of the men appears to be from west africa, neither described as being of asia
12:04 pm
descent. and there is a claim of responsibility identified and is being checked out but a u.s. official said it was not from a known terrorist group and not a lot of stock is put into that claim. >> more than a dozen agencies involved in one way or another with investigating this thing but not the fbi. why is that? >> we're told the fbi has a team on standby but has not gone to the region. that is an indicator the investigators are still waiting like the rest of to us see which case this thing is heading in. the state department confirmed that u.s. investigators are now on the ground in malaysia. >> two united states-based representatives of the ntsb, joined by two faa representatives arrived on koala lamb lamb pure. and they're cooperating with their counterparts. >> the black boxes are clearly a priority. a u.s. official said even a piece of fuselage in this case could be very telling because it
12:05 pm
can be tested for explosive residue, and they can look at the damage such as blowout marks to see whether there was a catastrophic event that caused the plane to come down. so doesn't just have to be the black boxes. even a piece of the aircraft could be a telling piece of evidence. >> that would be helpful. thank you very much. let's turn to robert francis, former vice-chairman of the national transportation safety board. work on the crashes of twa, and a plane in the florida everglades and the crash that killed golfer payne stewart. it's nice to see you again. >> i've just read from a source that reuters is now quoting who says -- is involved in the investigation who says it is highly likely that the plane disintegrated in the air. what would cause that sort of catastrophic disintegration? >> this is twa800.
12:06 pm
a spark in an empty fuel tank, and the aircraft blows up. >> so would it be rome, based on your experience to assume that at some point they'll find a debris field or is it possible a jet of this size could just disintegrate as this official mentioned to reuters? >> i think it would be very, very -- i can't imagine an explosion in an aircraft that would so shatter the air craft you couldn't find pieces there wouldn't be major pieces of wreckage. that's unheard of. >> once they find the wreckam getting to the black boxes is critical. from what you know of the area where this thing is supposedly said to have happened, is it so deep that finding the pinging is going to be a difficult and lengthy process? >> my understanding -- and i haven't heard a figure in terms of the depth, but my understanding is that if it is
12:07 pm
found in the water it's going to be considerably easier to recover wreckage than, for instance, the air france flight in the atlantic. >> the conspiracy theory, not worth going through them. but i am curious, would it be possible for a jet of that size to get low enough at insure any way it wouldn't be detected. could have gone somewhere else or is that for the cob spiers theorists. >> there are lots of things that are possible. the two guys with the passports. it's possible that flying somewhere, i suppose, and trying to hide it, is some degree of possible, but these are not the things that i believe are going to be -- or serious, really. >> most important thing they need is what? >> some wreckage to show them where they should be looking. some kind of report or wreckage
12:08 pm
or someone taking a picture or whatever it would be that would give them an idea of where to start looking, and then ultimately you're obviously looking for the recorders. >> robert francis, formerly of the ntsb and live with us. very nice see you. thank you so much. and for the sake of the family is hope they find something. >> u.s. intelligence officials are working on a new way to keep tabs on their own spies. the "associated press" is reporting that officials are planning a sweeping security system of electronic surveillance. it would tap into government, financial and other databases to monitor the behavior of millions of federal employees with secret clearance. the idea obviously to identify rogue agents, such as edward snowden. he is living in russia under asylum now but today he answered questions at the south by southwest festival in texas in a
