march madness in the home stretch as the top teams get revenge with an exclamation point. today, friday march 27th 2015. >> announcer: from nbc news this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> good morning and welcome to "today" on a friday morning. four days since the crash of that plane in the germanwings plane in france. >> they are looking hard at their computers and if you are getting on a plane, how can you not wonder about the crew. >> the copilot who prosecutors say intentionally crashed the plane into the french alps. possible changes this could lead to for airlines around the world. carry simmons, let's begin with

you. good morning. >> reporter: we learn that the families of the victims here in france are given dna samples to help with the identification. the fbi launched their own investigation because three americans were killed and reports of the copilot on the way to training in the u.s. the crucial question what motivates the copilot to do this? >> he was suffering from a personal life crisis according to several newspapers. the remains of 149 people he allegedly killed. a pain staking search for clues and to identify the victims. personal possessions, jewelry, clothes? >> among the relatives traveling to the scene were the copilot's

family who were pulled aside and told he caused the crash. from now on ensuring two people are always in the cockpit. he locked the cockpit door they said using controls like those seen in this airbus video. using the key pad, preventing the pilot from reentering. he programmed the plane and it recorded the screams of passengers in the final minutes. >> they were innocent people this man said. if he was ill, the company should have been aware. the family was brought to the bottom of the mountain. >> this may be as close as they can get to their loved ones's final resting place. >> stars and stripes for the three americans killed. the third victim robert oliver named last night.

early this morning, some of those european airlines are in that two-person rule include virgin air, a low cost carrier, norway iceland and the transportation minster said they will adopt that rule. of course it's too late for the people on board the flight that crashed here. >> thank you. we want to get more on the investigations that are unfolding into the copilot's background. they are searching both his apartment and his parents's home north of frankfurt. what are they finding? >> reporter: good morning, savannah. we do not know and they have been through the house trying to figure out why anyone would do this. they are looking at a break in his flight school. how long did it last? what we know is he had no criminal record and no known

terrorist ties. he is being called a mass murderer. 27-year-oldan dre as is accused of deliberately crashing into the side of a mountain. no obvious motive. only eight minutes of steady breathing while the captain bangs on the door and passengers scream for their lives. investigators are trying to piece together the puzzle as carrying boxes of evidence including computers from an apartment in dusseldorf while intrusion those close to him. few clues from neighbors who call him polite and fun. >> i cannot imagine he had done this. that does not fit in this picture. >> german jurpnewspapers said he

suffered from depression. he started training with lufthansa in 2008. he got as commercial pilot's license and accumulated only 630 flight hours until he put this plane into an eight-minute controlled dive that ended with slamming into the french alps. they said they were no red flags. >> were there reports there was anything wrong? >> we don't have any reports. >> from that flight crew german media reported he had a depression episode. lufthansa said they would not comment on that saying they couldn't comment on a medical history. we are reporting on a break up he might have had recently but we haven't been able to confirm that at this point in time.

>> they are looking hard at that background. >> let's bring in greg. good morning to you. >> good morning, matt. >> we know what they are doing. going through his apartment to find clues as to why he may have done this. would there be a way to recover this before he did this? how does the airline industry answer that question? >> that will be the most challenging question they have to answer. when i did silk air in 1997 one of the things we looked at were life-changing events with both crew members and they focused on the captain and saw he had a number of life-changing events with his career relationship and employer and his family and financial investigation. they will be looking at that with this young man. how the airline sees that is totally different. they don't see him every day. while we have pilots that fly together regularly, they may see

personality traits during that time. nobody knows what is normal and what's not unless it's very, very obvious that there is an issue that a person coming into the cockpit looks to be having a bad day. >> for example, in this country pilots before they are hired go through a health and emotional screening. it's my understanding that after that it's the honors system. it's up to the pilot to tell the airline if they are going through a difficult twim drugs or things like that. >> absolutely. it's self policing that has been challenged. one, you are employed. the last thing you want to do is confess that you have issues. we see this all the time with calling in fatigue. i'm tire and i can't fly today and the scrutiny that goes with that. if you have a mental issue or depression that will be a big

story to see if he was being treat and he was on any medication to control the depression. what the trigger was and if it is this break up or life-altering event, could it have been a trigger. the big question is is this just an isolated event or is there something more systemic to this? >> thank you very much. the majority of pilots flying in the skies right now are well-trained and skilled and trustworthy. it's easy to say this is the exception of the rule. 204 people die. >> everybody wants to think of a way to prevent it. it's a practical matter to what's going on. >> it's a real challenge. >> we have a big story back here. crews are working to put out hot spots at the site of a massive building explosion and collapse in new york city. this could take days.

nbc is at the scene for us. good morning. what's the latest for us there? >> >> reporter: 19 people were injured when a powerful explosion levelled a building and caused two others to collapse. you can see what's left of the building. authorities are investigating a family of a 23-year-old man. he was in a restaurant on the ground floor and now he is missing. i should tell you that authorities say they are investigating whether a gas leak was the cause of this explosion. >> the collapse caught on camera in manhattan's east village. the first of three buildings to go down. >> a major building collapse on second avenue. >> firefighters responded to a two-alarm fire that escalated to seven alarms. >> people injured in between and

it was pretty terrible. >> 250 firefighters from at least 50 units were on scene, trying to control the blaze that engulfed the five-story building housing more than two dozen units and the restaurant. one man caught on tape helping a woman down from a fire escape before firefighters arrived. the collapse came less than an hour after the fire began. flame spread to neighboring structures as crews worked to detain the fire that bill deblasio said was caused by the gas work. >> we are praying that no other individuals are found injured and no fatalities. >> they are putting out hot spots that could take days before they get the fire

completely under control. >> thank you very much. >> we have a story unfolding in the middle east. >> lawmakers are predicting the crisis could turn into an all out war that put nearly a dozen arab nations on one side and iran on the other. they have 150,000 ground troops ready to invade. the u.s. is providing intelligence. a key partner in the fight against the affiliate. >> an army national guard soldier have been charged with hacking the plan. they were taken into custody at chicago's midway airport. they had plans to go overseas while his cousin attacked a military installation where he

trained. the congressman who is resigning thrived a farewell address thursday. representatives are being scrutinized for spending habits. he renovated his office like downton abby tv show. >> i was never more excited than the day i walked in. i leave here with sadness and humility. for those whom i let down i will work tirelessly to make it up to you. >> his resignation is effective next tuesday. >> a bridge collapse killed one driver and injured three others. the overpass was under construction when they hit a concrete beam. the impact crashed into the lanes below. four vehicles were hit. one driver was killed and three

others in a hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries. >> good news from the six-time gold medalist who served her spinal cord in a car accident. she tweeted omg, guess who has reflexes in her knees and ankles for the first time since my accident? this is so huge. she vowed that she will one day walk again. >> don't count her out. >> her determination and attitude is so impressive. >> if the human spirit can will it. >> we have a soggy looking crowd out there. >> we have a lot of rain up and down the east coast. it's right around new york city where we are seeing heavy downpours. you can see the yellows and reds moving to the east.

look at the white north of allentown. going into saturday an inch or so in boston. we will see heavy rain and over to orlando. a half inch of rain. it is going to be fairly damp throughout the day. this is the dip in the jet stream and the pattern we cannot shake that will keep temperatures colder. a high of 30 degrees. temperatures will be falling through the northeast and tomorrow morning 15 in cleveland and starting off barely above freezing in the mid-atlantic. i discovered a convenient way to moisturize every day. new nivea in-shower body lotion. first i wash... then i apply it to my wet skin. it moisturizes instantly. and lasts for more than 24 hours. then i quickly rinse off. my skin feels amazingly smooth with no sticky feel. so, i get dressed... ..and go. now i enjoy smooth skin every day. new nivea in-shower body lotion in the body lotion aisle.

this could be it for the client as amanda knox's guilty verdict stands. it's over. they will be convicted murderers. raphael and his father arrived at the high court in rome this morning for the final stage or another chance in the long courtroom drama of amanda knox. "today" five judges are hearing the last arguments from defense teams in italy's highest court before making their decision on the convictions of knox ask her former italian boyfriend for the 2007 murder of knox's british roommate meredith kercher. uphold the verdicts or send it back for yet another appeal. knox and her ex-maintain they are innocent. they defendeded hearings mobbed

by the press at the entrance. thursday was his 31st birthday. if his conviction stands it could be his last one as a free man for decades. as for knox if the guilty verdict is confirmed, she could face an extradition battle from her home in seattle. even before the most recent verdict in 2013 she talked with matt about a possible extradition. >> they could want you extradite extradited with an international arrest warrant. you would not be allowed to travel or would be perilous. can you imagine lifelike that? >> i imagine it all the time because i have to think the worst case scenario. i have to prepare in my mind what that would be like. >> the subject of extradition leaves many questions. >> i think the united states is going to have a very difficult time honoring an extradition request for amanda knox. first of all, she has a lot of

popular support with the people in the u.s. i think there have been a number of legal irregularities. trying her over and over again. >> a supreme court decision for the pair approaches. this morning the attorney said the case against him is so far-fetched, it's as if forest gump were caught up in a murder case. we could have a judge's decision in a few hours later today. >> in rome for us thanks very much. >> there now 12. tweet 16 is starting to shape up. >> we are coming for the brackets. me and willie geist will get you. march madness. we know half of the teams. we have arizona, wisconsin and notre dame. thank you very much. they all won and they are high seeded teams. what was not expected is how

badly kentucky was beat. the final course is 78-39. one of the most lopsided victories at halftime it was 44-18. what does that speech sound like? >> have fun, guys. what was more interesting in adding insult to injury, he had to guard here. dax ter miles jr. tweeted out this. sa absolute them to getting the 36-0. >> devin booker put out 36 and won. the battle of the freshmen and looks like he made a shot. how did it work out for miles jr.? he scored zero points and at the free-throw line twice and missed them both. not a good night for him. you are at 62 points and look at willie and myself. starting to take form by sunday night. we will go to the final four.

washington. good morning. >> german media are reporting that he has been treated for depression and may have recently broken up with a girlfriend. he interrupted his training for personal reasons and one friend said he was burned out. the question is what could have possibly set him off? the investigation into the copilot's motives and mental state will likely take months but the ceo of german swings's parent company said there was no signs he was unstable. >> we searched very carefully because it's part of our dna. we have personnel and we look for psychologically healthy workers. >> this is not the first time a pilot committed suicide and mass murder. in 2013 flight 470.

in 1999 egypt air off of massachusetts. silk air in indonesia. >> hi everyone. >> a suicide flight remains the leading theory in the disappearance of malaysia airlines flight 370. the new pilot applicants undergo background checks that include a full work up. >> it includes a mental evaluation and there can't be any evidence of psychosis or bipollar disorder or serious psychological disorder. >> lufthansa insists the screenings are rigorous but once the pilot has the job, the yearly physical does not include a mental evaluation. a jet blue pilot suffered a break down on a flight from las vegas, new york. the copilot made an emergency

landing in amarillo. identifying a psychological issue in anyone can be difficult. >> the idea now is a full psychological work up would somehow pull you in to which pilots would do things like this. >> pilots don't go through regular psychological evaluations, they are insisting there is a peer review process where they are keeping an eye out for unusual behavior. everybody has a vested interest. >> thank you. as we were saying earlier, if you don't see each other every day, the nature is you don't work with the same people every day. >> exactly right. the kidnapping story out of california keeps getting stranger. a woman reportedly taken from her home showed up two days later. police say it's a hoax but she

huntington beach. there was no evidence she was kidnapped. >> if you can imagine devoting all resources 24 hours a day on what i will classify as a wild goose chase, it's a loss. >> her boyfriend said he was interrogated for 17 hours, giving them a blood sample clothes and access to electronics. he received messages from the kidnappers demanding a ransom of $8500, an amount many find odd. >> $8500 between two kidnappers is a little over $4,000 apiece. most of us can get an advance on a mastercard without the chance of going to prison for 30 years. >> conflicting stories about whether this girl was truly gone. nbc news, los angeles. >> we continue to watch that one. we will get a check of the weather now.

showers. just to the northwest of philadelphia moving through chester, bucks, montgomery counties into reading and lancaster this morning. the lehigh valley is seeing some light rainfall and still a few snowflakes mixing in north and west. trenton at 37 degrees, now up to 40 degrees in philadelphia and climbing. cloudsy skies, occasional rain showers. temperatures near 50 this afternoon. and we have some breaking news now on a situation in philadelphia. police sources tell nbc 10 that a stabbing has left a woman dead and two of her family members hurt. the victims range in age from 18 to 70. it happened around 6:30 this morning on reynolds street. investigators believe this started as a domestic dispute. no word on a suspect or any arrests. right now police are still looking for two men who punched a septa bus driver in the face. it happened around 12:30 this morning in north philadelphia. the driver went to the hospital with nonlife threatening injuries.

this is the second attack on a septa bus driver this week. on wednesday police arrested a man who assaulted a driver in strawberry mansion. two people are dead and another injured in a triple soogt shooting in west philadelphia. two robbers approached two men, pulled a gun on them. one of the victims also pulled out a gun and opened fire. police have not yet said which of the four people involved were killed. i'm chris cato. we're back with another update in 25 minutes. you can always find us on the nbc 10 app.

>> this morning on today's take the unbelievable ultrasound video. is it real? and ludicrous gets revved up on the album. that and more coming up now. this is today's take live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> on this friday morning march 27th 2015. a good-looking happy crowd on this friday. along with our special guest today, christian slater.

al and willie are off and natalie is on assignment. you ran in here meat loaf and all. >> meat loaf and all. >> everybody is on vacation. >> natalie is on vacation. they are working hard. willy and al. you know where the two men are. are you a creature of habit and when you start your day in the morning, you need your coffee and you open the paper and you do something routine. i was sitting here and dylan was here and i said i'm a creature of habit. i set up this chair for a year. in the center this has nothing to do with my role on the show.

you needed on to be in that chair. >> i have a ritual and my wife will -- she takes the face washout of the shower and washes her face. then i have to do things in a particular order. i have to wash my hair and wash my face and do the body wash thing. i do the whole thing. sometimes i have to get out if the face wash is out of the shower i have to open the door. it throws off my whole thing. we are so happy to have you both here. we know a lot about you and learn more about this. a little bit later, we have a fun show planned. in the news the big story remains. the crash of germanwings 9525 and the investigation into the

copilot,an dre ans lubitz and they said they found evidence in the apartment. let's go to katy in germany with the latest on the investigation. >> reporter: the prosecutors were able to investigate both the home of lubitz and his apartment in dusseldorf. they did not find any evidence of a suicide note or a note claiming responsibility. they found no evidence of religious or political affiliation, but they did find significant evidence that he was suffering for an illness. they couldn't say which illness. the german media has been reporting for the past day he was suffering from depression. they found doctors notes recent and a doctor's note excusing him from work the day of the crash that means he was not supposed to be working the day of the crash. they found evidence that he was

hiding this from his employer. that would coincide with what we heard from lufthansa and german wings that they had no evidence of anything wrong with him. they didn't see anything wrong with them and what we were hearing from those two and the flight club that he was a part of they didn't see anything wrong with him. they are looking to see if they can find any other motivation and any evidence that this was premedicated. tamron? >> thank you very much for the latest information. this raises the question that a lot of people asked with lester holt and the developments and his name was released in the background who would fly our planes. right now in the united states new pilot applications undergo background checks with full psychological work ups. in germany and the u.s. once the pilot has the job, that does not include a mental evaluation. >> a lot happens over the course of a career that you could start

changing. it's almost like that test needs to be every year or couple of years. >> it makes sense to have that be an updated thing. life is a roller coaster and it goes up and down and your mental state from one moment to the next needs to be constantly checked if you are in charge of other people's lives. >> it's a tough one that you have with mental health experts. if this leads to discrimination against people who have mental health issues. just because you suffer from depression doesn't mean you are homicidal or suicidal. there other jobs where people are responsible for a great number of lives. these are serious questions including the thing that was startling to me. someone can lock the cockpit door and overhide everything and prohibit or present someone from getting inside. >> it's incredible.

the looks are in place to prevent somebody coming in and announcing to have the pilot be the one. >> the back up that the pilot can get in. >> a code or something. some combination lock. >> or the universal procedure that a pilot or copilot cannot be alone in the cockpit. that's the parent company of germanwings that they were not changing their policy that allowed for one individual to be in the cockpit with the aviation expert. he said he believes that lufthansa will likely change as well as norwegian airlines. they changed their policy and in the united states there is a policy that you can't be alone. >> crazy story. >> kind of a turn here. we face a lot of our shopping and restaurants going on online reviews. online owners and owners of the retail shops are fighting back

when they feel some of this is user unfair. this happened and someone is being sued over a bad review. she got a bad review from a former client and angie's list. she said it negatively impacted her business. she is doing her $65,000 cleaning defamation. they are allowing businesses to respond, but you can say whatever you want as long as you are not lying. the issue here i travel a lot for work and the first thing i do when i'm in a town i'm not familiar with i yelp a couple of restaurants. i don't go to the places that have bad reviews. simple as that. maybe that place should step it up and not do bad. >> i don't know if it's a vendetta or a friend saying it's great, but it's someone who is padding the numbers.

i don't know what to think. >> i'm thinking now, is it possible for actors to sue critics? that's a whole new opportunity. >> have you had a showdown with a critic. >> this is maybe an opportunity to hire legal representation and deal with them. come on. that's how we go. >> with twitter and all that people can say whatever they want. the people they are talking about are negatively affected. >> sometimes they do not know the rule and they can't lie, but who is policing whether or not they are lying or not? >> it's like now we need another department to review the reviews. >> it's like that's how it's going to go. >> i do like this dog owner or groomer, her business is top notch. she is fighting to protect it. >> let us know what you think.

those restaurants for us. check out the reviews. we asked on today.com, does it affect your purchasing decision and 87% of you said yes. 13% said no. >> i guess the other cool story about how you choose a wedding singer. that's one of the most stressful things in planning your big day. one couple didn't have to worry. >> there is a husband and wife. bring in the wedding singer please. here he is! >> oh, my god! ♪ >> i love it. ♪

we'll start with i took my family on a trip and i took a client out to dinner one night during that trip for business. i can deduct my travel expenses. true or false. >> false. >> i kind of -- you can deduct that meal. >> you can deduct that meal. but you can't deduct your travel expenses. not the travel expenses. they're a stickler on business versus pleasure. keep those receipts as well. >> your family and the client are eating together at the table. is the whole meal a write-off? >> it is a client dinner. if they're going to be very strict about it you probably just can cover the client meal. i have a guard dog for my business. i can deduct expenses for rt dog. food veterinarian bills. >> true. >> that's true. it is for your business ordinary and necessary business expense. you just have to prove that to the irs and you can deduct that as a business expense. i always put money in the collection plate at church. i don't go every sunday but it
