8:02 am
>> each of those charged in the criminal complaint participated in a criminal conspiracy over the last ten months. our office dedicated researches to investigate the large group of friends and relatives have who have been meeting with one simple goal in mind as the complaint makes clear this group is committed to joining isil by any means possible. >> this goes back to an arrest in november of from a man trying to leave out of new york. many of the young men were connected to him, arrested at the same time and released. they were warned about the consequences of their action. according to the u.s. attorney they were still active in trying to get over to syria even ploting to go through mexico -- plotting -- >> scary stuff.
8:03 am
in other news related to the war on terror the white house is condemning the slaughter of christians by isis. the terror group released a video showing the beheading of dozens of men captured in libya. conner powell is live in jerusalem with more on this story. >> reporter: this latest gruesome video showing the mass murder of ethopian christian in eastern and southern libya. some beheaded and others shot. it is similar style to what we have seen from previous isis videos but a unique 30 minute long video showing the reach and growth of isis. in the past independent militant groups carried out attacked in the name of isis. in this video, the latest video, isis supporters carried out the attacks in many locations and
8:04 am
sent the video back to leaders to be edited and releases indicating a more advance coordination of the groups than what the western analyst thought existed. militants have taken haven'tadvantage of the growing chaos. isis has carried out several attacked in libya and several types of they have a significant reach to carry out attacks in libya. the real concern is that it shows this level of coordination and in previous people thought isis was a group in iraq and syria but we are seeing they have global aspirations and are able to find fighters and supporters in libya, afghanistan and yemen. it is much more of a global
8:05 am
terrorist organization than something confined to just iraq and syria. >> thank you conner. new information on the staggering migrant crisis in europe. they have busted a smuggling ring of people crossing from the med terraru mediterranean to italy. this comes in after a ship sank this weekend. >> reporter: the italian press published conversations picked up from wire taps in prison. they are referred to them
8:06 am
suckers for sending a $1,000 for the trip where they might end up getting sent back if they even survive and they were bragging about making close to a million dollars for the dangerous trips. europe is desperate obviously about what to do as the human crisis is becoming worse by the day. as many as 900 people died when a boat loaded with migrants cap sized and sank. they are looking for survivors but more likely bodies. apparently the migrants on board raced to one side of the boat when they saw another ship approaching trying get their help. at that point they cap sized and hundreds were locked in the hole. it is believed they went down into sort of tomb. many of the refugees are from
8:07 am
land locked parts of africa and can't swim. the boats wash up in italy and the outer islands but they are headed to greece now. one boat crashed near roads and three including a baby died. as we speak more distress calls have gone out. ships are on the water suffering for rescues. we are getting reports some people from the latest two boats in distress have already died. the coast guard is aware of this presence but they are so overloaded with it being such a busy week and the operation from sunday it is a race against time. italy's prime minister ruling out what was a debate about possible airstrikes on some of the smuggler locations and boats in libya because it would be hard to know what is a smuggling
8:08 am
boat a fishing boat and with the sichation being so chaotic it could make things worse. turning closer to home. hilary clinton is holding a series of events in new hampshire. this amid revelations a new book suggests that forn foreign donors to her organization got favor from the u.s. who she was secretary of state. >> reporter: this book is called "clinton cash" it has been talked about behind the scenes for some weeks spilling out on "the new york times" this morning. something the clinton campaign will have to deal with. there have been questions about
8:09 am
foreign money coming into the clinton foundation and a charge in the book is hilary clinton and bill clinton have been enriched by the money with personal speeches for foreign governments foreign business people and also donations going into the clinton foundation. a spokesman for the clinton campaign, brian fallon said this is part of an attack against the candidate twisting known facts into conspiracy theories arguing it will not be the first work of against the clintons and not the last. this is playing out as hilary clinton is coming here for her second swing. we talked to a former democratic party chairman in new hampshire who has not endorsed here.
8:10 am
he is surprised she has the whole field to herself. >> i have never seen anything like this in the new hampshire primary in particularly where the field has been conceited to one person on the democratic side. >> martin o'malley bernie sanders and jim web are looking in. no one is in besides clinton. but there is almost two different primaries playing out. the primary for votes in ernest and a scandal primary where we will have to say whether the allegations in the book, the e-mail trouble she had, will bubble up and be an issue in the campaign. >> great to see you on the ground there. dramatic new testimony in the murder trial of a woman accused of killing her
8:11 am
boyfriend. why she said she did it. and the race to the white house heating up. gop presidential hopefuls descending on new hampshire as a new controversy erupts surrounding hilary clinton. america is asking with the news of the massacre of christians in libya is the united states doing enough to help the people of north africa. our live chat is up and running. go to foxnews.com/happeningnow and get in on the conversation.
8:12 am
8:13 am
8:14 am
crime stories right now. the prosecution came out swinging in a murder trial claiming a woman shot her boyfriend six times in cold blood and today her attorneys try to convince jury members with was self defense. and a trial of robert champion who was beaten to death after a
8:15 am
football game exposing a culture of hazing. and day four in the murder trial of pedro hernandez who is accused of kidnapping and killing a six-year-old in 1979 who was one of the first missing children that had his face appear on a milk carton and changed the way we handle missing children cases. all eyes on new hampshire as gop white house hopefuls attend a summit to tout their case. but it seems they have more to say about hilary clinton. i suppose every presidential nominating process is a battle for the soul of the party. how do you see it shaping up among the republicans bret baier? >> well there are a lot of them.
8:16 am
18 perspective candidates in this leadership summit. and laying out their plans. a couple battle lines are drawn. one is on foreign policy. more aggressive policy of marco rubio and lindsay graham and jeb bush and rand paul on the other side of that coin. i think you have seen lines being drawn on social security entitlement reform and mike huckabee and donald trump blasting chris christie's plan. you will see division develop but the focus is on president obama and hilary clinton. >> the washington had an article putting jeb bush lindsay graham and rand paul on one side of the divide saying the party needs to expand its base and reach beyond
8:17 am
a traditional republican voting bloc of older, more conservative folders. and own others say you just have to be an honest activeconservative and appeal to folks like that. >> jeb bush has high unfavorables in ohio and new hampshire. we are three and a half months from the first debate that happens on fox the first week in august. you will see people saying they might get in don't get in. money is prohibitive as far as fundraising. we will see a lot develop over the next couple months. >> it seems those in are doing well on the fundraising frond. ted cruz rubio and others are talking about money.
8:18 am
>> mike huckabee is making an announcement on the fifth and people are going to be surprised with how much money he has. i think you are seeing the role of super packs playing a huge role and you could have a few big ticket funders who fund the campaign and keep it afloat without the smaller number coming in. >> all of them have a disdain for hilary clinton. a new book not even out is raising questions about foreign donors and favors they received from the state department. the book isn't out but it is generating conversation on the campaign trail. >> you saw a little piece in the new york times that started this
8:19 am
conversation. i think they are working on something bigger and the washington post as well. we are looking at it. the book does get into details about foreign countries and companies that may have profited or benefited from a relationship with the clintons in one way or another. it lays out the facts explicitly. when you get into weaves of the story it is potentially a problem. you have seen the initial response from hilary clinton saying this is bias political angling from conservatives. but i think you are going to see more much attention on this than people even give it credit now. >> from 2001-2012 the book says the clinton's income was at least $136.5 million. i wonder as hilary clinton heads to iowa and meets in small groups and tries to
8:20 am
empathize with ordinary folks how does that play out? is there a juxtaposition there that is ringing hollow? >> she is taking income equality fighting for the little guy and getting big money out of campaigns. those are three interesting messages from hilary clinton and according to this book the money that came out of these governments. it is interesting to see how much mitt romney got attacked for his wealth and the way he dealt with finances with the companies we'll dealt with in bane capital. i think you will see a focus if there are opponents to hilary clinton taking a more left progressive look at where the party wants to be she may have to address her messaging around
8:21 am
that. >> bret baier it will be fascinating to watch and i am sure you will have more on special report. new information on a disappear disappearance of a mother and her teenage daughter in new york. and tebow may get another shot after playing. i know tim tebow has a special place because of denver. he is not going to denver. why the team is looking at tebow and why now? we will get into it next.
8:22 am
[ male announcer ] take zzzquil and sleep like... the kids went to nana's house... for the whole weekend! [ snoring ] [ male announcer ] zzzquil, the non habit forming sleep aid that helps you sleep easily and wake refreshed. because sleep is a beautiful thing.
8:23 am
8:24 am
>> a long island mother and daughter missing since march 30th have been found safe. the mother and her 13-year-old
8:25 am
daughter were reported missing after they didn't return from a week long trip to manhattan. they were recognized by someone who saw their story on television. he may soon be back in the game. tim tebow is set to sign a one-year deal with the philadelphia eagles. he hasn't played in a regular season game since 2012 and traded a role of quarterback for broadcaster but he maybe back. jeff is here from "the wall street journal." why the eagles and why now? >> the eagles have had a lot of unorthodox moves. the style run under chip kelly is like a college offense where tebow was at his best and they
8:26 am
need a mobile quarterback which he is. it is a good fit and chance for him. >> when you saw the headline what did you think? >> i thought it made sense. he wasn't a fit with the jet. he is a lefty and can't throw the ball well which is important for a quarterback. but it could work in philadelphia. >> what about the three year break? >> well yeah, but he never gave up on the dream and always wanted to be a quarterback and stayed in shape and working to improve the mechanical issues. you know he kept the dream alive and here he is. >> i miss tebow. i am friday him to come back. jon and i had a good thing going with the denver broncos. do you think this will have a big impact or people will watch until september to see if stays
8:27 am
on the team? >> he had a try out with the patriots and didn't make the team. people are just fascinated by him and it has to do with how successful he was in college and his faith is a big part of it. he is very poplar and people love to hate him as well. >> how often does it happen an athlete goes away from the nfl, comes back and earns a spot on the team able to play again? >> in the nfl, when they give up on you you really don't get another chance. it does want happen often. we have seen a couple examples with quarterbacks. maddox is the quarterback for the pittsburgh steelers in the early part of the decade. he was away for a couple gales. he was an insurance agent and came back and led the team.
8:28 am
>> this is from usa today. if he reverses to the old passing motion and he is slow to do progress if the eagles cut him now no one else is calling. is this it? >> i don't think he will get another chance. the knock on him is how he throws the ball. a lot think he would be better at another position than quarterback. but he wants to be a quarterback. >> don't we all? it is exciting to watch. expected to be announced today but announced as of yet.
8:29 am
>> jon, what do you think, tebow take two? >> it will be good to see him back. a horrifying gas attack that killed more than 1400 people now one news organization showing very graphic video of the attack in syria. why cbs is defending the decision to show the disturbing images. and the boston marathon underway. we will talk with one bombing victim trying to cross the deadline two years after the deadly bombicng was there.
8:30 am
8:31 am
8:32 am
8:33 am
jon: right now a quick look what's still to come on "happening now." dozens of college students rushing to get off a bus as it goes up in flames. what could have played a part in this devastating fire. a new report on people abusing stimulant drugs for disorders like adhd as a way to get ahead in school and at work. a look at the damage these drugs can cause. a deadly school attack in barcelona. a 14-year-old boy in custody after coming to school armed with a knife a cross bow. who he went after as classes were getting underway. jenna: breaking news boston marathon is well underway about one million people are lining the route in an overwhelming show of support today. race comes two years after three people were killed and hundreds more injured when bombs went off right near the finish line. terror attack that was supposed to cause fear is now uniting the city. we have more for us now.
8:34 am
hi molly. >> we're waiting for the tens of thousands of runners to cross the finish line. we're here a couple of blocks past. we've been watching volunteers work like crazy to get this done. the rain has held off for now which is good for the runners. two years past the boston marathon bombing and there's still incredible stories of resiliency. so many people said last year they reclaimed that finish line for the city of boston and the runners and this year we have amazing stories to tell including one from been he can a -- rebecca gregory. in november she chose to have surgery to remove one of her legs below the knee. she got a new leg, prosthesis in january and they'll be running several miles today coming across the finish line. it will be a new experience for her. last year at this point in time back in boston, she was in a wheelchair. she came in march to testify against tsarnaev and she'll be out there doing a bit of a run,
8:35 am
crossing the finish line later today. take a listen to rebecca. >> crossing the finish line on monday is going to show myself and the rest of the world that what he tried to do and what they tried to do didn't destroy me. it made me stronger. it made me want to seek out and want to make a difference in any way that i possibly can. >> she's been crisscrossing the country sharing her inspirational story and really, this is an international event. there are people coming from all over the world 97 different countries represented. we had a chance to speak with one runner that came all the way from brazil. he's run boston before. he was here the year the bombs exploded. he finished before they actually -- before the explosion happened and here is why he says he keeps coming back. >> because the boston is smarter than the bomb. bostonites are one of the most famous marathons in the world and the people from here it's
8:36 am
wonderful. you have -- when you arrive here it's like you are at home. >> when you arrive hire it's like you are home. next up tomorrow the penalty phase of the trial of tsarnaev gets underway. he was convicted on 30 federal counts confirmed to be the marathon bomber. tomorrow the penalty phase, the same jury that convicted him in those counts will decide ultimately if he lives or dies. jenna: does it feel good to be on the sidelines there? >> it feel great to be down here. this is one of the best days in the city of boston. patriots day red sox are playing, people are running, hopefully the weather holds off. they all worked hard so we want to see them get across the finish line. jenna: we certainly do. happy patriots day. good to see you as always. >> thank you. you guys too. jon: good to see them back in action. 60 minutes is now defending its decision to air graphic video of a gas attack in syria.
8:37 am
last night's broadcast showed disturbing cell phone footage of victims as they suffered seizures and respiratory failure. the sarin gas attack took place in 13 outside of damascus. it willed -- killed 1300 people including children. >> you don't see it i don't believe the impact truly hits you. even though people will be disturbed by what they see, it has to be seen. >> alan colmes is host of the alan colmes show, nationally syndicated by fox news radio. tammy bruce radio talk show host and fox news, was it appropriate? >> i have no problem with them showing it. you can choose to watch it or not watch it. i'm a big fan of more information is better. but my question becomes that they had access to this years
8:38 am
ago effectively a couple of years ago and only now they're doing it. i think this would have been even more powerful and more important when we were having that discussion of obama's red line. what can we do? should we go in? and yet, this has gone on for a couple of years so i immediately wonder about is there an agenda? i'm also wondering if the point is it we don't see it we don't really know what's going on. we had a now some ethiopians murdered by isis ethiopian christians just the other day just like with the egyptians. video is out there. they're not showing isis videos either. it's about the questions, why now? >> are you saying that cbs purposely sat on this to help president obama? >> the point is that i have to think that because of the nature of legacy media and the fact that they had it for a couple of years and we're only seeing it now. >> you make a good point it should be out right away.
8:39 am
with media and cell phone video you don't have to wait for cbs to show it. even if cbs didn't show it they could show it anyway. there was a warning. we don't need big brother to keep this from us. we agree this is important. it's an important piece of footage that people need to see to know what's going on. to know the horror of what goes on. jon: we'll talk about hillary clinton in a moment. she was secretary of state when this took place. >> i look at things within a political framework. this is politics. it's really about gas. it was about this kind of an attack that he said would determine whether we did something and it's interesting that it shows up past the time of where anyone thinks now that we can make a difference. how many more people have been gassed? by the way, the chemical agreement allows asad to use chlorine. so it's not like there aren't still gas attacks happening but i think the timing is
8:40 am
interesting. >> it is always obama's fault hillary's fault. >> it's not anybody's fault. >> we didn't jump in when the kurds were being gassed. we waited for 15 years later to remove saddam hussein. this notion because something terrible is happening in the world we must now take action. >> obama set the tone. he set the red line. no one was clamoring for him to say let's do something about libya. it's horrible we have to ask this about legacy media. why now? why are they not showing other things that are happening? will they show the isis murdering of christians? >> you don't have to wait for the "they." it's already on the internet. people aren't waiting for cbs to come to the table. >> i understand but a lot of people aren't doing what we do and they rely on legacy media. jon: let's go to a new book. there are new questions that the book raises over foreign donations to the clinton talks about
8:41 am
foreign entities giving money and receiving favorable treatment by the state department while hillary clinton was secretary of state. it makes the point apparently again the book is due out in a couple of weeks but it makes the point that bill clinton gave 13 speeches worth $500000 or more 11 took place while his wife was secretary of state. >> people aren't attacking clintons already. this is already happening? maybe she should have waited to announce another six months. this is what's happening. if they can prove -- you know, most people's eyes are not on the 2016 presidential race. i don't know that this is going to be a big issue come fall of 2016. if indeed one can prove that there was a quick pro quo, that's a totally different story. right now it's idle conversation among those who don't want hillary to get traction. jon: the author goes to great lengths to document the details that he brings out in this book. >> if it's idle speculation, then it's all legacy media
8:42 am
that's been idly speculating about the clintons, all of his details he gets from material that is already out from the mainstream media. >> i thought the media loved the clintons. what happened? >> this is what's important about the book is that when you have a bunch of pieces all over the place brought together within context as a whole, it looks very very different. and this book you write a book and it's set to come out. they didn't know when she was going to declare. there's a lot of books written right now about scott walker and marco rubio and jeb bush. so they've got to be able to handle books like this and criticisms criticisms. jon: let's let the american people read it. >> let them decide. jon: thank you both. fox news channel is working on an hour long special on the new book. it's called "fox news reporting."
8:43 am

8:47 am
lucky guy. "outnumbered" at the top of the hour. back to jon. jon: thank you both. >> see you then. jenna: for years stimulant drugs used to treat conditions like adhd have been illegally used by students looking for an edge on college campuses. now many experts say stimulant abuse is graduating into the professional world and beyond with very dangerous results. dr. nina ratcliff is an anesthesiologist and joins us now. a lot of parents are using drugs like adderall. what are they? >> they're amphetamines. they work on modulating some of the brain chemicals and just to give an idea of what these are, these are what doctors use when the blood pressure drops or you have no blood pressure. we use these to stimulate our heart as well. so they're very serious potent drugs. >> so what happens to the brain or to your body when you take this medication but you don't actually have a deficiency if you will that it's addressing? >> it's like putting the brakes
8:48 am
on all the other thoughts. you may not want to check your facebook likes or something of that sort but it can have effects on your heart. it can increase your blood pressure your heart rate, even cause deadly heart conditions where you can have sudden cardiac arrest. >> the people that were documented in the "new york times" wrote an article about this and said that by using these stimulants, they're able to concentrate in a way they couldn't be able to do otherwise and they simply have to do it to be competitive in their work. what do you think is the risk that they're taking on by indulging in this drug? >> first of all, these are schedule two drugs next to cocaine, right next to heroin. they are draektaddict i didn't have. you may think you can get the project done or take to the head of the class. they've become a crutch even in the short-term, people don't realize that they have problems. they can make you not sleep well, it can also sit there and affect your appetite. they have serious concerns short-term and long term it can affect your thinking. we don't know the long term effects of these medications.
8:49 am
jenna: it was interesting to see the different people profiled. it talked about professionals and also the stay-at-home mom. to get everything done i find this helps me. one person profiled and her identity was asked to be kept anonymous anonymous, she said when she went to a psychiatrist and complained she wouldn't concentrate, they got a prescription for adderall in about 10 minutes. >> life is stressful. we think the answer is taking a pill. that's not the case. we're always going to have life stresses we need to know how to deal with and taking a pill is not an answer. especially one prescribed to smbl and not you. jenna: it's right there along with cocaine. how difficult is it once you get hooked on a drug like adderall to get off it? do you have to go to a detox program or something like that? >> it depends on how addictive you are. essentially when you do have it if you suddenly stop it you can actually have withdrawals. we're talking about seizures, agitations. we have to be careful.
8:50 am
that's the problem especially with the college students or young people getting into the work force. they don't know what dosage they're taking, what dosage they're supposed to be taking. they don't know what the contraindications are and they don't know the warning signs and that's why it's dangerous for them to take it without a physician supervision. jenna: i don't think we think about it like cocaine but it's a go ahead warning for us today. great to see you. thank you so much. jon: a deadly school attack just as classes begin for the day. who was killed in this rampage and who police now have in custody. also one hotel takes pet friendly to a whole new level. we are live with a heart warming story for you next. if you take multiple medications, a dry mouth can be a common side effect. that's why there's biotene. it comes in oral rinse spray or gel
