infrastructure. back in may, microsoft reported finding mysterious computer code in telecommunications systems in guam, the pacific island home to multiple us military bases. now, us officials acknowledge microsoft could only see a small portion of a much larger issue. they say the chinese malware effort predates the may report from microsoft by at least a year. what are we seeing today? >> you know, the threat environment at its all time highest just over the last year , we saw an increase of 953 new bad actor groups bringing the total of 3500 unique groups. >> and earlier this month, chinese hackers infiltrated the accounts of the us commerce secretary and other officials at the commerce and state department's small plane crashed into an airport hangar in southern california, killing three people. >> the single engine plane burst into flames after the crash in upland, california. investigators say the plane went

loveliest little girls that you'll ever meet. super funny, super smart. but jj, on the other hand, severely autistic. nobody thought that he would ever be able to talk at and he just flourished at and became a incredible little boy with no death penalty in idaho, lori is expected to receive consecutive life sentences. >> family members are set to speak in court, including her only surviving child and lori's sister. the big question remains will lori address the court or will her family's words and that of the prosecution be the deciding factors between spending the rest of her life in prison or, to a lesser sentence? >> this is their opportunity to plead to the court regarding what i would predict is going to be their request to have her remain bars for the balance of her life. lori's husband, chad daybell, is also charged in the

you cannot smell see or taste it. symptoms include headaches, dizziness, nausea and confusion. miller and his wife know the pain of losing a child all too well. in 2018, their 19 month old daughter drowned in a neighbor's pool. >> they opened the door and she was floating in the pool and i ran and i jumped in. >> this morning, asher, axel and scarlett are home and doing well. morgan thanking everyone for their love, kindness and well wishes. we are so glad that those three kiddos are okay. morgan says detectors are placed throughout their home. of course, inside. but the carbon monoxide outside did not trigger any of them. >> good awareness for families out there. okay coming up, the new fashion trend at the beach. >> plus, someone throws a drink at rapper cardi b and she gets at rapper cardi b and she gets even. i'm a bear. i'm coming out of hibernation after the best nap of my life...
