drop the ball on a key witness? diana at 50. how she might have gotten along with her new daughter-in-law, plus, the inevitable comparisons. good morning, everyone. it's 10:00 a.m. on the nose, 7:00 a.m. on the west. we're goirng to have all that for you, plus how much this independence day could set you back. judgment day for casey anthony fast approaching. the closing arguments are scheduled for tomorrow. lily is live for us. what are we expecting tomorrow as both sides deliver their closing arguments? >> we expect to hear first from the state who will likely present a timeline of what they think happened to caylee. korkt the evidence already presented in their case.

perhaps stressing on those 31 days. we have not been reminded for a while of what went on after caylee died, the partying taking place, casey's promiscuity. everything that happened and how she went on denial or continued her life perhaps to support their thaer theory that this was premeditated. after that, we'll hear from the state who will likely say there's not enough evidence to proou caylee was murdered and say even if they cannot prove there was a drowning in fact, that it's the state's burden to prove what happened. from there, much likely heard in the case tfor the past few days the prosecution will take the stand again, close off and have the last word. i would point the case goes to the jury. >> what about all that tension

in the courtroom friday? the lawyers were going back and forth, sparring over this witness the prosecution called. let's listen to part of the exchange. >> i don't know what new opinions they have, so i will start right away and we will take it from there. what new opinions are and that is it. so the deposition should be fair and brief. >> so i guess the state is admitting the argument. >> no, i am not. but if we can stop this and maybe get to some actual work, judge, i'm ready to go. >> what was this about because it led to an indefinite recess yesterday. >> it did and judge perry has been adamant about wanting the case to move on. he told baez yesterday, this better be a real and not major nar problem. he says the witnesses' opinions

were not properly disclosed to the defense and he wanted the testimonies to be stricken all together. judge perry said that's not a possibility. we will give you time to depose the witnesses if it is true you are not aware of what they will testify on. that happened and thankfully for all of us, it went along quickly. we went back to court at 1:30 and the state was able to finish the testimony bis the end of the day, which allows for this rest to happen today and tomorrow we will get into closing arguments. >> thank you so much. the former attorney for the anthony family has some strong feelings about the case the defense presented. i spoke with him just a short time ago. >> i think very simply, the defense bombed. i think it was disjointed defense. i think the promises they made in opening argument are not going to be forgotten by the jury. how can you talk about a

drowning? sex abuse and you don't put on one sentence, one word, one syllable of evidence to present to that jury. of course, the burden was not there, but they went ahead and changed that, that he hmade the theirs. jury's not going to forget that. >> closing arguments take place tomorrow morning. we're going to have them live for you right here on msnbc sunday. michele bachmann's on the trail this weekend. the minnesota congresswoman kicked off a three-day bus tour in iowa city today. she's going to make six stops in the state where she's one point behind mitt romney. later today, she'll be in in des moines. tonight, the republican field is expected to expand. mccotter is scheduled to launch his bid in lake michigan. in washington, there is gridlock over the debt crisis.

while republicans continue to reject increases, president obama is standing firmly with the democrats today. in his weekly address, the president says not bringing in more money from taxes would mean cuts to education, medical verge and new technology. >> it would be nice if we could keep every tax break, but we can't afford that. because if we choose to keep those tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires or hedge fund managers and corporate jet owners or oil and gas companies pulling in huge profits without our help, then we'll have to make even deeper cuts somewhere else. >> mike viqueira is live at the white house for us. good saturday morning, my friend. we have the specific opposing demands from each side. where do you see the next step being and what role the president's going to play? >> there doesn't seem to be a lot of wiggle room.

back on may 21st when the world was coming to an end, start it up again. we are exactly one month away. july 2nd. put it up on the screen. august 2nd. really not a laughing matter. the treasury secretary says that is the date by which the united states will default on its obligation. they're going to have to start prioritizing. it's possible social security checks could start going out. interest rates are going to go up. they're calling it a catastrophe. not just confined to this country, but worldwide. a lot of people don't believe it. the speaker of the house says it's an arbitrary date. they say these arguments by president obama about corporate jets, gas revenues, these are straw. he's demagoguing. we're talking about a $14.3 trillion deficit.

of course, congress is going to have to vote before august 2nd to raise that. senator dan coates is the republican from indiana, a snard. he had the response to obama this morning. >> unfortunately, the president's plan of spending and borrowing has failed. now is the time for decisive leadership from this president. it's time to cast aside the false safety of political denial and re-election hopes and put the future of our country above all else. >> and demagoguing or not, the president's attacks on republicans had their effect. they were supposed to go on effect next week. they canceled that. senator coats and his colleagues will be here next week working. it's expected the negotiations will continue. president obama does not have any meetings on his schedule at this point with congressional leaders. >> okay, mike viqueira, thank you. state parks and campgrounds

are being closed this morning after a government shutdown. state offices, highway rest stops and state lottery are also closed. 23,000 state workers are laid off and the republican controlled state legislature and democratic governor can't agree on closing a deficit. >> republicans insist that in inequ inequality connue to millionaires do not have to pay one dollar more in taxes. so far, they have. >> the fact this fiscal crisis affecting state budgets has gone on for well over three years means that the decisions about what to do get harder each progressive year. >> no new talks though expected before tuesday. the national conference of state legislature says at least 31 states began with deficits of $86 billion. heading to florida, more than 600 employees there are looking for work. they were laid off friday. another 562,000 began paying

into their pension plans for the first time in 37 years. it is independence day weekend for dominique strauss-kahn. the former head of the international monetary fund was all smiles friday after he was released without bail and the case against him is in jeopardy because of lies by his accuser. that shot is outside the strauss-kahn apartment. what is is latest other than we may not even know where he is because he's a free man right now. >> well, he's a free man, yes, but he still faces some felony sexual assault charges. those still stand despite everything else that's happened. yes, if you think back five, six weeks ago, you have the head of the imf, the man who is talked about the next president of france perhaps. charged with sexual assault, $6 million bail and now, you have

headlines like this in the "new york post." says the maid was a hooker. that's one of the many allegations being made against her by the immediamedia and some prosecutors, wh admit she lied to the grand jury, lied to them as they were investigating her background. she's had conflicting account of what happened that night, what she did after the attack happened. the bottom line in a case like this where it's so much about he said, she said, where there was no other witness, her credibility has been really called into question and there's a lot of serious doubts now whether this case can go forward. i have not yet heard a credible lawyer say that they think this is going to go forward and that dominique strauss-kahn is going to face these charges. yes, it's a possibility, but it seems more likely this whole thing has deteriorated. >> to the point of absolute dismissal or perhaps a plea deal being in the works?

>> i don't know if the legalities will be. the woman's attorney is adamant she was the victim of a sexual assault. he insists that regardless of what happened in her past or whatever she did afterward, what matters is that half hour, hour, whatever the time frame is when she was in the room with strauss-kahn, when she was she was attacked. the lawyer says the details have not waivered in her discussions with him or the prosecution, but again, it all comes down to so much it comes down to just credibility and are you consistent with the details and the facts and she has not been and that's a huge problem for her. >> indeed. okay. many thanks. more on the casey anthony trial. could cindy anthony face purgery charges over what she said op the stand? i'm going to talk with diane diamond and that and where the baby kate? a search is underway in michigan for a michiganing 4-month-old girl. a bit later, why some

closing arguments are steaded in the casey anthony trial tomorrow. another riveting day of drama. the prosecution finished up on friday. the mom said she was the one who looked up the term chloroform, but prosecutors called an expert to refute that. >> when you searched for chlorophyll, you said there were no hits. during the keyword searches. >> that is correct. >> joining me live now, diane diamond, good morning, diane. >> morning, alex.

>> i'm curious what your biggest take away is. >> that testimony from cindy anthony yesterday or about cindy anthony's testimony was a shocker. because it really proved that she lied. i guess she lied for her daughter. saying, well, i looked up chlorophyll and it took me to chloroform. yesterday, we heard she was not at home at the family computer at all on the 17th of a particular month and then on the 21st as she testified. she was at work. and they know that because they brought a computer expert in that showed her tracking putting information in for patients at the hospital where she worked. at the medical care facility. but my biggest takeaway, alex, is i don't think casey anthony got a very good defense. >> and that's why you titled your most resent article, casey's defense fizzles. >> i don't get to choose the

title, but it was pretty apt. >> also that jose baez promised to reveal secret things about this dysfunctional family that caused them to cover up the accidental drowning of caylee. did he do that? >> first of all, he did not prove an accidental drowning. he didn't really bring up a will the of ugly things. he did bring up a woman who said she was george anthony's mistress. he vehemently denied that that affair had taken place. we did at the end of the evidence portion of this trial, get a feeling that maybe this family wasn't completely honest with each other. show me a family that isn't. the brother has some hard feelings about how the sister was treated so well and you know, we got some of that, but ugly dark secrets, i don't think it was proven. jose baez talked about child

sexual molestation of casey. that was never proved an the jury didn't hear any direct testimony about that. >> so, i'm curious. as you read the jury and i know you're often low to say you can read a jury, but that said, do you find that looking at jose baez and do they look at him with credibility in their eyes? can you read how they take him and the way they've done this trial? we had a couple of attorneys earlier on who were quite vociferous in saying he was one of the worst defense attorneys they had ever seen. >> i hate to paint lawyers with specific terms because i might have to work with them again in the future, but i'm not disagree ing with that. when i was in the kurm and through tweets of oh reporters in the courtroom, the jury sometimes snickers at what baez says. they sometimes sort of giggle at mason, who has been dubbed by

the media, their private fog horn leg horn of defense attorneys. look, i don't like to read jurors because you never know, but they're smart people. it's a group of smart people. people like you and me. if we all think a specific thing, it's probably pretty safe to say a majority of them think that, too. >> what about specific points? maybe one for each side they must convey in closing arguments tomorrow, what would those be? >> well, i think that the state, for all the negative we say about the defense, the state has a very big burden to meet here and i'm not sure they're going to to prove first degree premedicated murder. that carries death. they're going to have to prove that the 84 searches on the computer were premeditation. chloroform searches, neck breaking searches, internal injury searches.

they're going to have to tie that to casey as the premeditation for doing away with her daughter. the defense, oh, alex, i can't pick one thing that they need to concentrate on. the big ugly umbrella hanging off the defense for their closing is their opening statement. it was so full of assertions that were not proved that i just don't know how they're going to recue the mess. >> how long are they supposed to present these closing arguments? this is not going to be a quick open and shut. we have a death penalty potential here. >> right, the prosecution said early on, the lead attorney, really good attorney, that her presentation would take about a day. we have jury instructions, too, which i hate to say, it's the most boring part of covering court trials. the judge reads a long list of things to the jury about how they should deliberate.

then there will be a state for the day, or most of the day, then probably we'll hear the defense closing on monday. fourth of july. fireworks. >> really? >> yeah. >> okay. i don't you're too far off. always a pleasure, thank you so much. >> it's my pleasure. this fourth of july weekend is not just a great weekend for barbecues, also a popular weekend for shopping. a look at just how big the sales are out there, next. and the story behind these pictures coming up. what is -- that's getti inting squished, that ship. they're kind of my thing. and they were looking... nasty. vile. but i used tide and tide booster, and look at them now! now they can be my thing forever. yay. that's my tide. what's yours? i use tide sport because it helps get odors out of athletic clothes. i mean, i wear my yoga pants for everything. hiking, biking, pilates...

terror attack as law enforcement tracks an uptick of online chatter about avenging bin laden's death. evan, good morning to you. let's talk about the increased chatter, first of all. we're looking at the ultimate patriotic american holiday right here. how much does this concern you? >> there are home grown extremists out there that would love to make a statement just a few weeks after the death of osama bin laden. it's the number one u.s. patriotic holiday. you can see where someone would want to make a statement. of course, there's also al-qaeda and they are still looking to avenge the death of bin laden. they're looking for a high profile day. a day like july fourth, like the september 11th anniversary. it's a concern. al-qaeda's having a problem with its chatter because its main discussion forum just got shut down apparently by hackers, so the last four or five days,

al-qaeda hasn't been able to communicate properly. kind of a dramatic development. what that shows you is yeah, they might be planning something, but the question is how much has this disrupted that. >> what about the asengs offal zawahiri to the number one spot? now i've taken over, now i've got to make a splash. >> he wants to make a statement and has been around for a while. he's not a new player. he wants to make the statement, i'm in charge. there's a reason for that. because if you look right now, the only al-qaeda faction that has responded back and said, okay, you're the new leader, is shabaab in somalia, al-qaeda in the arabian peninsula. none of these groups have issued a statement saying he is the new leader. >> so is he? >> he is the new leader of

al-qaeda, but the question is, do these various different franchises, are they really loyal to that new leader or maybe they have concerns. it's a mystery. it's been weeks now and there's been nothing from these groups. they've issued statements, but haven't said anything about zawahiri. >> another thing we get from this "washington post" article is that all the drone attacks that have been happening greatly affected al-qaeda's operations. >> no doubt about that. whether we're talking about the drone strikes or financing, it's not a secret. al-qaeda has made several statements saying look, we have a real financial problem here. we have people that want to carry out suicide bombings and can't afford the car for the attack. this is what al-qaeda is saying publicly. so you have to imagine there really is a financing problem there and apparently, if what the report in the "washington post" is correct, it is having an immediate impact. >> you know, how does al-qaeda get financed?

it's not like it's some company building up. is it all donations? various means? what is it? >> mostly, it's donations. mostly, it is people, individuals, many of whom are in the arabian gulf, giving large hand sums of money. the problem is that nowadays, trying to transfer that money through a bank account is very risky. it's likely to get seized. we see what happens with human couriers. law enforcement and intelligence agencies find these people. there's a desperate need for money and a desperate fear of the drone strikes because they have done tremendous damage to al-qaeda's infrastructure. >> plus, there's global recession going on. all right, across the nation this morning, they're still looking for baby kate. the 4-month-old michigan infant has been missing since wednesday. the area was searched on friday. the man who may be the girl's father was arrested, but she's

still missing. the child's mother is trying to find her baby. >> she tells me they're out looking. gets up early in the morning and out looking for her and looks until late at night. please return to her mother. her mother needs her bad. her mother loves her very much. >> shesz the hope is that the baby will be found are friends of the father. the research says the ingredient in red wine may prevent the deterioration your body suffers when you don't wherz. unfortunate . nutritions said this sounds too good to be true. the research was performed on rats, so if studied on humans, it doesn't have the same effect. previous studies have shown it is good for your health because it lowers the level of bad cholesterol. are we making a case for drinking red wine? maybe. to keep in balance after 50,

one unique cookie. welcome back. republicans on capitol hill hammered the president this week for backing a plan to remove tax breaks for the rich. take a listen. >> it's kind of language you would expect. >> deficit, but we can do that while making investments in education, research and technology that actually create jobs. >> i respect the office of president of the united states, but i think the president has deminnished that office by giving the kind of campaign speeches that he gave yesterday. >> well, meanwhile, president obama dug his heels in this morning saying the tax breaks for the millionaires and billionaires are necessary in order to prevent cuts to education and medicare. let's go to karen finney and pat buchanan, former communications director for president reagan. both msnbc political analysts in

high esteem, i might add. good morning. here's the question to you, pat. is it not reasonable for millionaires and billionaires to pay their fair share? >> i think as far as i know, they're paying 35% where half the country doesn't pay any income tax at all. to the point, the battle we got going here, alex, the president is i think using language beneath the level of his office, but it reflects a deep frustration because at the end of this battle, he knows what he's going to get is very serious budget cuts, sort of a biden plan, no tax increases and an increase in the debt ceiling. and if he gets that in the middle of july or late in july, he's going to have to sign it. but there is no way he can beat a tax increase out of the republican house because they simply won't pass it. >> now, here's an interesting angle as well, karen. ronald reagan says he never would have agreed to tax hikes if he'd known that the revenue

would go to more spending. so, if there are tax increases this this package, would kind of guarantee would there be the money goes to the debt and not new spending? >> that would have to be part of the negotiations. but at this point, i don't think that speaker boehner is going to get an agreement. i think pat's right, passed through with republicans. he's going to need democratic support. that's why you see leader pelosi and others reasserts themselves and i think that's why the president has drawn a line in the sand on these tax issues. you look at what's happening across the country, minnesota for one, where it's just untantable to heap more debt on our national debt at the same time to say we're going to make seniors pay for it. we're going to do more cuts for our schools, more cuts to roads and let you know, those on the upper income brackets continue to you know, not have to pay

their fair share. >> well, you know, pat, i want to talk about the specifics of what the democrats are calling for. they're not calling for new tax cuts. the wealthiest americans are in some degree, paying less now because of the bush tax cuts, so is it fair to say this might be returning to what was the norm before president bush? >> i was with reagan and we cut the top tax rate to 28% in 1986. president bush the first took it back up to 35%. and president clinton took it to 39.6. that's where they want to go back to. let's get back to the basic fundamentals. boehner, if he wanted to go along with the president, i think he would risk his position as speaker of the house. he would have a complete rebellion of republicans in the house. if he signs on to tax increases. as mitch mcconnell said, you're not going to get them. now, here's the president's

situation. he has got to have, has to have the increase in the debt ceiling. and if the house passes an increase in the debt ceiling with let's say 1 trillionin cuts down the road, the president has to sign it or he puts his country in default. that's the box he's in and why he's exasperated. >> quick. >> okay, i was just going to say two things. one, i think at a point, this is bad for everybody because what it does for people who are outside of washington, they look here and say, these people can be the get anything done. i think there is political pressure on the president and on both house of congress, both republicans and democrats, to show they can get something done and let's be clear, pat, it is not going to be the president who fails to get the increase in the debt ceiling. it will be republicans, which is tantamount to shutting down our government of the riots we're seeing in greece if they decide we're just going to let the united states default and see what happens.

>> let me ask you this. let's suppose the house passes the debt ceiling for one year that the president requests and puts on $1 trillion in budget cuts that biden's agreed to. they pass it. they say here it is, mr. president. one year, the crisis is over. he sends it to the senate. the president says, i veto it and put the government in default? >> well, pat, i think we're going to have to get to a point where we both raise the debt ceiling, because that's in the best interest -- it's not necessarily good or bad for the president, but the country. >> but how do you get the tax increases if the house dupt vote for them? >> i think to the point alex was making, we're not talking about new tax increases. how about not oil subsidies, how about not tax breaks for some of these jets. that's what we're talking about. >> what do you do if the house says no? >> keep at it. >> i'm going to keep at it with the two of you next hour.

got to go. meantime, the wedding has started monte carlo. where prince albert ii will wed charlene woodstock again. this time, the religious ceremony. that kind of looks like princess stephanie right there. we've got one of our own princesses there, michelle kosinski live for us in monte car carlo. was that stephanie? >> reporter: i didn't see it at that moment because we are looking at the camera, not the feed. we saw all kinds of glittera trk i from around the world. roger moore, other king s of fashion. there's a political showing from the world of fashion, also, and of course, royalty. it take as lot, i think, to get

3500 people in such an organized way to arrive one by one in each car and then do that long walk alone down that red carpet, so already, the wedding hasn't started and it's quite the spectacle. >> indeed it is. we saw beautiful princess caroline's daughter, charlotte. do we know who the bride is wearing today? which designer? >> reporter: armani supposedly, so we expect to see the start in about a half hour if it starts on time. at the ceremony, an american soprano will perform. they have this ceremony expected to last around an hour. afterward, there will be a dinner and the three michelle lan starred chef who will be doing that, around 500 there, he expressed some nerves the days leading up to the wedding. and then a white tie ball and

then it's going to be over. two days of this, alex. monaco is probably going to be a little bit exhausted. last night, there was a concert and a couple of times, the cameras caught prince albert yawning, but they looked like they were having a pretty good time. so after tonight, maybe monaco can get back to normal, but everybody's waiting to see what will become of all the rumors that have been circulating. will there be any concrete evidence of whatever was said? nobody seems to know, but everybody's kind of hoping now. >> we hope they have a happily ever after fairy tale. thank you. this fourth of july holiday weekend's all about flags, franks and frosty brews, but how much patriotic americans will be spending is the big question. is it going to be a pricey pay point? let's go to vera.

what are we buying? >> the national retail federation does this every year and says this year, we're more patriotic than ever. going to be buying something, whatever the case may be. a lot of us are going to parades. my family is in the parade. a lot of people also traveling, 3100 million americans travels, that's up from last year. they're out there and spending. >> food is what you have to talk about here. every body seems to have barbecues. >> over 64% of americans will be hosting a barbecue or attending one. they're spending on average about $61. hot dogs, hamburger, food. that's all up. total spending about 2.3 billion. >> 61% of americans means how many barbecues are up? >> about 40 million cookouts attended by 235 million

americans. an awful lot of partying going on. >> got to pick up beer or wine. >> you've been saying all morning wine has health benefits. it's really -- really a big day for beer. 64 million cases sold over the fourth. bigger than super bowl sunday. watch it down with a beer, right? >> people do it and a lot of people will be doing it. >> in the heat, too, probably. >> good ideas there. thank you so much. we have a shocking piece of video to show you. coming up next, the story of a bomb squad officer and how he escapes right there. you will not believe the aftermath. we'll have it for you in a short break. design a vacation on a budget with expedia. make it work. booking a flight by itself is an uh-oh. see if we can "stitch" together a better deal. that's a hint, antoine. ooh! see what anandra did? booking your flight and hotel at the same time gets you

prices hotels and airlines won't let expedia show separately. book it. major wow factor! where you book matters. expedia.

this is a scene out of the film the hurt locker. that officer narrowly escaped the explosion in thailand. showing the bomb disposal

officer just thrown way backward by the force of that explosion. apparently, he found an explosive device inside the sedan which he thought was suspicious looking. as soon as the officer touched that door handle, that is when the bomb went off. muslim militants staged the bomb as part of a random attack on government officers. that guy survived. talk about a tight squeeze in northern germany. a cruise liner just barely making its way through a tiny canal with just a yard to spare. the ship is heading to the netherlands for some finishing touches. if she were alive today, the people's princess would be celebrating her 50th birthday this weekend. admirers of the late princess gathered in london yesterday. the actual day of her birth, july 1st. they left cakes, candles and cards outside the gates.

the duchess of cambridge is -- imagines what a meeting with the two would be like today and i'm joined by dickey. nice to see you. so, after all these years, princess diana's still so adored by so many. how are people reacting to the 50th birthday? >> fairly quietly. one of the things that people tend to pass by is the birthday and they gather really on the 31st of august, which will be the 14th anniversary of her death in 1997 and they leave flowers and notices and they pause for a moment and look at the building where she lived. not in the particular part that you see from the park, but lived in that building. so it really is 31st of august is the day that people remember. >> what about the news week article which i'll have my director, john, throw back up on the screen so people can see this. your chuckling.

is that pretty much the reaction over there? there were some who were offended. some who found it intriguing. sort of getting a good depiction of what diana may have looked like at 50 years old. >> it's pretty tacky and it's all about selling newsweek. do a mack up of a picture of what she might look like, mikt have done, and it's all very tacky, but it does sell magazines. it's so far from the truth. diana wouldn't have gone through three husbands. wouldn't be living in the united states. she wouldn't have been very far away from her boys as she called william and harry and would have been there to encourage them. no, they've got it very, very wrong. >> really? you don't think she would have moved to the united states? we know she loved america and the author, tina brown, they both think she would have gone to the u.s. >> you know, everybody that meets diana once or twice say

they knew her. she didn't know her. diana wasn't one of those people you got to know. she had lots of acquaintancacqu. she didn't allow people to get close. those that did were a small handful. you could count them on one hand. yes, she loved visiting america, but wouldn't have lived there. she wouldn't have gone away from william and harry. she would have been as close as possible. >> the inevitable comparisons are going to come between diana and kate. some say they are not fair to either of them. they say the legacy of diana should be left alone. kate should not be subjected to the pressure of living up to the people's princess. i've had fleeting thoughts that the vast popularity that kate's enjoying right now, diana was just the same and i worry that when you put people such highly up on pedestals, there's nowhere to go but down. froms.

>> i share your concerns there, alex. it's wrong to try and compare kate to diana. diana was a one off. catherine is not a diana. she is a catherine and must be recognized as such. the unfortunate thing is she's being seen like diana as a clothes horse rather than the workhorse. at the moment, she's wearing british fashions. in canada, wearing canadian fashions. she's consort to william. meeting the canadian people. but let's recognize her as an individual rather than hey, this is a replacement for diana. she is william's wife. >> very good point. i'm just going to say she does reuse her clothes. that's good. nice to see you. thanks so much. the security breach at an airport that's raising all kinds

a major breach in airport security. federal judge denied bail to the 24-year-old when he tried to leave the country. he's accused of sneaking on to a flight from new york to l.a. using someone else's old boarding pass. tom blank is a vice chairman of wexler, also former head of the tsa security policy. good morning, tom. so, where did this break down happen to allow this guy to get on board with someone else's pass? >> tsa talks about it layers of security that they have in place at the airport. and the entire system they have in place didn't fail us, but a couple of its layers did. and what that means is that this individual was subjected to screening, walked through met dahl detector, body imaging.

his carry-on baggage was examined. there are a couple of layers that weren't working that day. the i.d. check. his i.d. really wasn't valid and secondly, the check that the boarding pass name and i.d. match each other. those thing rs not good. things that have to be reviewed and investigated. there's also a question of the security aspects of the individual boarding the aircraft where he would have boarded without the proper check of his name and validity of p boarding pass. >> that's almost strike two in a three strike situation here because not only did he board that plane with an old pass not in his name and that gets swiped under some sort of laser thing, but then on the plane, the guy sits in an empty seat and we

know, you see the flight attendants checking these manifests and counting heads and the like when they go through the cabin. it's as if it was a perfect storm of problems on everybody's shoulders here. >> it seems that way. clearly, someone who is sitting in an unassigned, unsold seat, that's suspicious behavior and the flight attendants are trained to identify that and they should have made a report at the time that flight landed or at least have made a report to the pilot in command. that should have triggered an investigation or review of the gentleman's behavior, but in this case, he was left to go on about his business, which is is a serious problem. >> indeed. very disturbing. many thanks. a survivor's story. one girl's encounter with a shark and lived to tell the tale. americans scatter across the map. we're going to tell you how they're getting where they're going and what they're finding
