12:00 pm
or legal expenses. good news indeed. that was a fun hour. thanks for joining us. i'll see you on "the five." it's wednesday. greg and jesse will be there. i'm dana perino. here's shep. >> shepard: it's noon on the west coast. 3:00 on capitol hill where lawmakers are demanding answers about two deadly boeing crashes. and the company, boeing, announcing a fix for the jets that are grounded all over the world. but could that fix have happened before one of the crashes? also, jussie smollett, the fox actor and singer may not be off the hook even after prosecutors dropped the charges of staging a hate crime against himself. and what is the real story of how those charges all went away? plus, cars that stop you from
12:01 pm
speeding. a plan to have your ride keep you safe whether you like it or not. reporting begins now. >> shepard: our reporting begins with the chicago police. they have now released their file on jussie smollett to the public showing step by step how they incovered his hate crime hoax. they just dumped the documents online. this is after prosecutors made a stunning decision to drop all charges against the actor even though they said that smollett was not innocent. the move allowed smollett's attorneys to seal evidence in the case. but now text messages and e-mails are triggering questions about whether jussie smollett got special treatment from prosecutors. the chicago tribune newspaper reveal
12:02 pm
revealed kim knox and michelle obama's staff. two brothers are being accused of lying to police on how they were paid to carry out the attack. >> jussie said he's been truthful and consistent. he said at the beginning he didn't know who he encountered that night. he knew it was the brothers, didn't he? >> he did not. the attackers were masked. >> police say they have phone records of him talking to the brothers an hour before the tack, an hour after the attack and while they're in africa? >> not an hour after the attacks. >> that's what they said. >> that is completely false. i've seen the phone records. they've been produced. one thing i want to -- >> you're saying he did talk to the brothers. >> he did talk to them. he just hired the one brother to train him for his upcoming music video. >> shepard: tmz reports the brothers told their lawyer they were going to stay silent and refused to put out a statement
12:03 pm
after prosecutors dropped the charges. so where are we now? matt finn has been following this case from the start. he begins our reporting live from chicago. matt? >> shepard: shep, today chicago police apparently wanted to get out as much information as quickly as they could. they released files and now the department says the case has been formally sealed. so getting any more information the post office confirmed to fox news that it assisted investigators with the death threat letter. smollett faces charges of mail fraud. cook county state's attorney
12:04 pm
kick fox said she recused herself from the smollett case during the height of this investigation. it was later revealed tina chen texted kim fox, i want to give you a call on behalf of the family who i know they have concerns about the investigation. kim fox then respoke to the supperlier. he's going to make the ask, trying to figure out the logistics, i'll keep you
12:05 pm
12:06 pm
12:07 pm
you can't get off the case and suddenly jump back in in order to tie a bow on this package and make it go the way that you want it to go. that behavior of hers was seriously questionably ethical and ought to be examined by the ethics i have not seen anything like this. they did him a favor for reasons we don't know. an attempted to mask that favor and some sort of credibility in the behavior here fits into that
12:08 pm
category. >> usually you get up and fall on the sort. you say i can't believe i did this. i was horrible. i staged this attack. i put a lot of people in jeopardy or i cost a lot of money. >> or you can remain silent. you have to go through a probationary period. if you successfully complete the period, then the government will ask the court -- and the probationary period involves restitution or some sort of community service and at the end of that time, the government will ask the court to dismiss the case against you. but to dismiss the case from day
12:09 pm
one with no agreement and to seal the report and say oh, by the way, we would like to keep your bail and then to go before cameras and say we think he was guilty and could have proved the case anyway makes no sense. it's a head-scratcher. that's what tells me, they were doing him a favor. for some reason that they don't want to articulate. they tried to mask the favor in the aura of legitimacy. >> shepard: the chicago police superintendent says justice is not served, that he's guilty, he staged it. he said it specifically. not beating around the bush. the mayor said this is a whitewash of justice. is there something else that could happen? >> yes. first, let me say something about the chicago police. their investigation was so extraordinary it was over the top. when they first announced the charges and put a chart of his behavior and interactions with them, to me that was an airtight case.
12:10 pm
>> shepard: 16 counts. they didn't filed the charges. a garage jury -- >> each counts is each time he lied to them. 16 different times he interacted with them. each time told a lie or series of lies. the letter that he caused to be mailed to himself addressed to him at the fox studios in chicago is arguably mail fraud. being a deceptive instrument, a piece of paper in the mail, intending for people to rely on. >> shepard: that's on the feds. >> that's in the hands of the fbi. the fbi and the u.s. attorney in chicago will decide whether or not to prosecute. they have to be very careful here. they cannot prosecute just because they think he got away with it in the state case. they can't prosecute because he is very unpopular and everybody from the mayor to the police chief, the people in the streets are angry. they have to prosecute that they believe this is a serious federal issue that is worthy of the time of the federal courts. i suggest to you that's what they're analyzing as we speak.
12:11 pm
>> shepard: what do you think? >> i don't think it's worthy of federal prosecution. but i predict he will be prosecuted. >> shepard: for the reasons you said they shouldn't prosecute him. >> yes. that's the system, shep. i'm sorry to say one of its worst intersections of law and politics in the city of chicago. >> shepard: judge, thank you. >> you're welcome. >> shepard: ask your kids to write their own report cards and they might show you straight as. that would have been the only straight as i ever had. i would have turned that in. what happens those when you ask an airplane maker, for example, to certify its own planes. that really is the question now on capitol hill. the feds talk about how the boeing jets that crashed were considered fit to fly. under what rules? why were they fit to fly? why after one fell from the sky and nose dived and killed everybody on board did they keep flying?
12:12 pm

12:17 pm
the fix sooner allowing boeing to roll it out sooner and potentially preventing the second crash? earlier today the transportation secretary elaine chao testified on capitol hill. in doing so, she admitted the investigation raised troubling questions about the faa's dealings with company that regulate, companies including boeing. the faa let them certified their own plane for flight. secretary chao said it's questionable that some safety features that are add-ons that are extra instead of being standard. the 737 max 8 and 9 jets are grounded everywhere and now we're hearing how much that is costing airlines. southwest airlines. it reports it will account for a $150 million loss this quarter alone. then there's boeing. trying to get the planes flying again. it reports that its unveiling
12:18 pm
the final software fix today. from there, we go to dan springer live in washington south of seattle in renton. dan? >> yeah, shep, we learned that boeing has been working on this software fix since october, after the lion air crash. as you mentioned, the faa got the details of this software fix back in january at least 1 1/2 months before that second fatal crash without admitting that this anti-stall system, the mcas system was the cause of the fatal accident. boeing announced today the all-important fix. it calls for two sensors to agree that the plane's attack angle is too high, not just one. it will only engage the system once. so pilots won't have to fight it once they have turned it off. a ceo for ethiopian airlines says the mcas system apparently was on and kept pushing the nose of the plane down. boeing executives say this fix will work. >> we're working with customers
12:19 pm
and regulators around the world to restore faith in our industry and also to re-affirm our commitment to safety and to earning the truth of the flying public. >> shepard: the faa is on the hot seat for the way they certifies new planes. the allegation is that they have been too cozy with boeing and too accommodating as the certification process goes. so the faa says they will consult with regulators from other countries like canada, china and the european union before certifying boeing software fix. the faa will usually go it alone. as far as the process, the transportation secretary and aviation experts defending it today saying government regulators don't have the technical expertise to do the job. speculation is that the 737 max planes could be up and flying again by the end of april or perhaps as early as may. shep?
12:20 pm
>> shepard: dan springer with us live. thank you. the transportation department's inspector general says the faa will make major changes to how it overseas aircraft construction with the goal to make sure the agency monitors the highest risk areas. licensed commercial pilot dan rose is with us now. after that first flight, after the first crash, dan, where was the faa? >> good question. they should have been on it at that point. looking at what was done in certification, reviewing how that fix came up what they looked at, what boeing told them about it. obviously demanding a fix on the fix. remember, the system, the ncis system is a fix for this uncharacteristic of the max. >> shepard: the reason for that is, they stretched the jet, moved the engines around. >> yeah. it's a 60-year-old design that they put through four iterations and 12 generations.
12:21 pm
it's not -- it's stretched out, carrying more people, fuel, engines. they're trying to get the max out of the plane. it's without redesigning it and ended up being unstable. they put this fix, the ncas system and now they need another fix. >> shepard: secretary chao said we couldn't ground the planes unless we know something about the planes. if you ground them without factual evidence, how do you unground them. >> you can always -- >> shepard: i'm quoting here. >> i don't really buy that. their priority has to be safety. if you're going to present with a situation you don't know if it should be grounded or not, that's a serious question. the answer is err on the side of safety and caution. don't wait for another 150 people to become test pilots essentially and prove there is a problem with the system. >> shepard: is it a serious problem that the airlines are doing their own certification? what should be happening? >> well, airlines, manufacturers
12:22 pm
to some extent are doing their own certification. sure, it's efficient obviously but also inherently conflicted as we'll see here. you remember the cogan plane crash. the pilot was signed off by another pilot. it's something that needs to be looked at carefully. >> shepard: they're on it sounds like. dan rose, thank you. >> my pleasure. >> shepard: there's been a bomb shell in britain yet again. live pictures in parliament where the prime minister, theresa may, is suggesting her days in her job are numbered. what the major shift in leadership could mean for the united states and the rest of the world next.
