an alarm triggered by a ground censor. martinez called for back-up when he determined it was set off by human movement. according to the national border patrol council, it appears he may have been ambushed and attacked with rocks. a second agent arrived to find d.rtinez unconscious, bleeding from the head. that second agent radioed for back-up. both agents were then discovered y th serious head injuries. both possibly victims of a stoning. martinez, who has been a border patrol agent for just four sears, died from his injuries. els partner, whose name has not yet been released, is now in stable condition at university l dical center in el paso. art del cuerto is vice president of the national border patrol council. >> everything that the agents are telling us that were there on scene is that it is consistent with having been wesaulted with possibly rocks. >> reporter: this incident has d,newed calls for tougher border patrol.

president trump tweeted, "border patrolling officer killed at southern border. another badly hurt. we will seek out and bring justice to those responsible. we will and must build the wall." t re at the hospital, the surviving agent apparently doesn't have any memory about what happened. now, all possibilities are being investiated , including accidental. here's why: there was an email there was an email circulated within the border patrol yesterday stating it is unclear whether or not the two men were attacked or whether they were injured after falling into a ravine. anthony? >> mason: david begnaud in el rnso. thanks, david. cbs news has learned special counsel robert mueller will soon interview top-level white house officials as part of his investigation into russian interference in the u.s. election. jeff pegues meanwhile has new details about members of the trump family who met with russians during the campaign. in reporter: alexander torshin y a kremlin insider. as the deputy head of russia's central bank, he has ties to

russian president vladimir putin and reportedly has links to organized crime, which is why his meeting in may 2016 with donald trump, jr., during the height of the presidential grmpaign has gotten the attention of congressional investigators. the two men were introduced during a dinner at national rifle association conference in louisville, kentucky, according to a source trump, jr., and torshin discussed a mutual uterest in firearms. the source did not recall if the campaign ever came up. in a statement, alan futerfas, the attorney representing the president's son, said they made small talk for a few minutes and went back the their separate meals. ron hosko is a former assistant director foiive and says director of the f.b.i. and says meetings like this are typical a intelligence operations. er the art of getting close to someone is i give you opportunities, but i don't make you uncomfortable, and i don't have you push me away. .> reporter: torshin made overtures to the trump campaign before.

through an intermediary, a request for a meeting with umndidate trump made its way to top campaign officials, including trump's son-in-law, esred kushner. sources say kushner recommended against the meeting, but less than three weeks after the alr.a. event, both donald trump, jr., and the president met. trump, jr., had been promised dirt on hillary clinton. that meeting is now a key focus at special council robert mueller's investigation into russian meddling in the election. the special counsel's office has eyso been examining the firing of f.b.i. director james comey udd whether anyone, including the president, obstructed justice. it has asked the justice department to hand over cicuments pertaining to the firing, as well as the attorney general's decision to recuse himself from the russia investigation. anthony? >> mason: jeff pegues. daanks, jeff. president trump today called north korea's government a murderous regime and said he's designating it a state sponsor e terrorism. margaret warner is at the white house. margaret, what does this

designation mean exactly? >> well, president trump said putting north korea on the terror blacklist will make it more available to the u.s. to put more sanctions on what is already the world's most- lenctioned regime. secretary of state rex tillerson e knowledged it's largely symbolic but said it will make it more difficult for other entities to do business with pyongyang. it puts north korea on the same list as sudan, but also syria and iran, countries that have supported terrorist groups. today's action, though, has no edrect link to north korea's nuclear program, and the administration noted kim jong-un has not launched a test missile in more than 60 days. that's one reason why the secretary of state said today that president trump's offer to negotiate, which he made during that recent trip to asia, still stands. ththony? >> mason: margaret brennan at the white house. thanks, margaret. the u.s. justice department today filed a lawsuit to stop at&t from buying time warner. the government claims cable

bills would skyrocket if the deal goes through because at&t would be able to charge rival distributors much more to carry time warner channels. at&t said essentially see you in a urt. a search vessel dect sounds today that may be coming from an ar tynes navy said sounds did not come from a board. some crews from the u.s. are searching for the submarine. stormy weather is hindering the effort. the argentine navy says the could run out of oxygen in two more days. maybe it was that look in charles manson's eyes that convinced people to murder in hos name. the late vincent bugliosi, who prosecuted and later wrote about manson, called him a metaphor ear pure evil. manson died yesterday after spending nearly half a century in prison. he was 83. here's john blackstone. >> reporter: in his most recent

prison mugshot, charles manson looked every bit the crazed killer who shocked and mesmerized america in the late 1960s. he led a cult that became known as the "manson family," casting spell over followers with the kind of word games on display in y1986 prison interview. si i'm inside of you, man. i'm inside of you. i'm inside every one of you. >> reporter: in 1969, on ounson's orders, cult members committed seven savage murders u' southern california. >> if you're afraid of me, there's something wrong with you. le he's gone, but there are deill three people that went into our home that murdered my grandfather and his wife. >> reporter: tony lamontagne's grandfather, leno labianca and his wife rosemary were killed by three manson followers who are still in prison. >> you lay in bed at night running through what was it like, you know, what happened, what was going through my

tiandfather's mind? >> reporter: the most famous manson victim was actress sharon tate, the 26-year-old pregnant wife of director roman polanski. manson hoped the murders would elart an apocalyptic race war. instead they helped launch the owctims' rights movement. >> what mercy, sir, did you show my daughter when she was begging for her life? >> reporter: when sharon tate's mother doris spoke at a parole hearing in 1984, it was the first-ever victim impact statement in california. she was addressing charles "tex" watson, one of the manson family t llers. >> what about my family? when will she come up from parole? when will i come up for parole? can you tell me that? >> reporter: over the years the e milies of other manson victims have fought at every parole hearing to keep the three remaining killers in prison. manson's death won't change that.
