7:03 am
jihadist media postings already had him under under surveillance. newly filed court documents says the fbi was watching as he went on amazon twice last week and bought three military style blades. raheem told two other people he planned to behead a victim in another state. law enforcement say it was pamela geller the activist and commenttator who organized the draw mohammed comp test in texas. she says they targeted me for violating sharia blasphemy laws. they overheard him say on a wiretapped phone call that he changed his mind and decided to attack massachusetts police officers later this very day or the next. the fbi says he told a friend quote, i'm just going to go after them those boys if blue 'cause it's the easiest target t. man investigators say he was talking to on the phone, 25-year-old david wright appeared wednesday if federal court charged when courageing raheem to get rid of evidence by

7:05 am
left off. your officers have actually talked to a third individual. are there any other suspects sought or are you satisfied now you have talked to or have in custody everyone connected with this plot? >> i believe we have everyone connected with this plot. you know but you know we're still working with the fbi and the joint terrorism task force to make sure we can tie up loose ends on this as can you tell this was a very real and it was very dangerous and what unfolded on tuesday morning could have saved not only police officers' lives but who knows where this could have went otherwise also. >> but there have been reports that pamela gel ar this anti-islam activist was a target initially of this suspect, how serious did you take that? did you think he was far along in being able pull something like that off or was it something more along the lines of wishful thinking? >> i think it was more along the lines of wishful thinking.
7:06 am
you know but we had 24/7 under surveillance on him and we were monitoring all potential targets and there was some mention of that name. but, you know we were focused locally here. he had local roots. so our concern was what he could do here especially here in the city of boston. >> in the early hours after the shooting of this suspect, there was a claim i believe by his brother that he was shot in the back by police officers and that he was on the phone at the time. you took the rather unusual step of showing under surveillance video of the incident to community leaders. why was that important to you? and do you feel you have put this issue to rest? >> yeah it was important. about four weeks ago we had won of our officer, officer joe moi na han, there was a bit of a uproar after. that you know at that time we had community leaders in. we showed them the video and you
7:07 am
know with all the unrest around the country regarding police-involved shootings, we thought it was important to show that video and i made a commitment to the community that we would do that in all our cases and that's why yesterday we had all the community in islamic leaders, from all religions, community, na acp. and we showed the video of what took place on tuesday morning. you know clearly, it shows our officers walking up to this individual with no guns and then within seconds retreating five policemen, backtracking backtracking and witness and their accounts asking this and demanding him to drop his weapon drop his weapon and it left them no choice as we found out yesterday in the affidavit, you know he was on a mission. he was out to get someone in blue. so it's easy to understand now why he didn't put down that large military knife.
7:08 am
we faced a serious threat here and, you know i'm glad that affidavit came out because it makes it clearer why we had to stop him, why we had to question him before he got on a bus and went throughout the city of boston. >> commissioner bill evans, a close call it seems, we will continue to follow this investigation. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> all right, savannah thank you. now to the widening anthrax scare, the pittsburgh now says its lab may have sent out more than double the number of live anthrax samples than originally thought t. shipments were sent across the united states and to three foreign countries. but authorities are trying to keep the public calm. nbc's pentagon correspondent jim miklazewski has details on this good morning. >> reporter: good morning, matt. not only has this shipment of those suspected live anthrax shipments dramatically increased, senior defense officials are warning this morning it will only get worse. by the pentagon's own count, the

9:03 am
ah, we're failures. >> josh came to us on his own and he was crying. he had just turned 14 and he said that he had actually improperly touched some of our daughters. it was after that third time he came to us is where we really felt like, you know what, we have didn't everything we can as parents to hand him this in-house. we need to get help. as parents, you are not mandatory reporters. the law allows for parents to do what they think is best for their child. >> we don't know if that's actually the case. we have to research that. i don't know. >> you've seen abuse that you don't have to it's your own child, that itself what he's suggesting. >> we are trying to verify whether or not that's true. now -- >> it may vary from state to state. >> i dvr'd the interview and rushed home from an event and watched it.
9:04 am
>> it varies from state to state. >> matt i think said it best this morning. in a way it seems, not in a way, it certainly appears they have now opened themselves up for more questions. these interviews are to clear the air and i heard a lot of people on social media asking last night about the repeated behavior and you know, were the proper steps taken? not just to give josh the attention he needed, according to his parents, but to probability the children in the home. >> right. right. >> because if that had come to light, you know you wonder what steps authorities would have taken to protect the minor children and the family. >> well, among the steps the duggars say they took. they say they took josh to a training center for boys who have made bad choices. it was a christian facility. when josh returned home they had him speak with a state trooper. he was never charged. tlc has pulled "19 kids and
9:05 am
counting" has not yet cancelled the show. what struck me what you both said, they went after the media first of all also they talked about the league of juvenile record. it may be a fair point. now that information is out there. you can't put it back in the bottle. it seems they're looking outwards. >> our producer just said at that state they are not required to report. >> in the state of arkansas. >> isn't that fascinating, though? i mean obviously, savannah is an attorney and very well studied on this, but i think it's well studied if a crime happens in a home, parents are not compelled. but loose i think in federal courts, spouses are not compelled to testify, so maybe that falls under this same category. >> megan also asks them, is your son joosh pedophile? and miss duggar says a pedophile is when an adult touches a child inappropriately. this was a child touching a child inappropriately, absolutely not.
9:06 am
>> the other headlines, one of the ages of the children in the home, megan revealed in her interview, they didn't tell which child thankfully to protect the child's privacy. but it was a smaller daughter. >> two of the sister versus given another interview basically defending the brother. i guess that's going to be airing. >> so now the ball is still in tlc's court. we will see what they are going to do there. meanwhile, something we have been debating this morning, head of the class, what does that truly mean? so there's deal. dublin, ohio, three high schools, now they have a combined graduation. i imagine it's probably less expensive, more efficient. great reasons to do that, i'm sure. it turns out, though it created a situation where they have 222 valedictorian, that's about 20% of the graduating population. so about 2000 kids. >> what's the criteria for that? >> the school has told us valedictorians students that earn 4.1 or higher gpa, it's the
9:07 am
standard in the class pretty much everywhere. many of these kids took ap advanced course. they're next level. they're not us. so, anyway. >> speak for yourself, tamron hall. >> i'm sorry. >> i think she's right. >> she's totally right. keep going. >> graduation, a couple students from each class gave speeches. now, this is not just happening at the school in ohio. orca. . they will have 27 valedictorians, they earned straight as in college courses to secure a perfect 5.0. i didn't know they had. i thought 4.0. weighinged gpas. one student will speak tomorrow. we were asking, i think they all should few earned that 4.o and that's the criteria then you deserve to be called a valedictorian. >> the number sounds ridiculous. i agree with you, you do you
9:08 am
tell one kid that got the exact same gried hoo tes valedictorian or you are not. >> maybe you can have a super valedictorian. >> like a steel caged fighter. >> mad max? >> shave it down. >> okay. you are smart. let's see how tough you are. >> make it a hoard knocks life. >> listen i think it's fantastic these kids are achieved so much, recognize them, what the heck. so what. >> 20% of the class, though, that's a lot of valedictorians. >> hey, that's terrific. 20% of your class has got a 4.1 or better. that's fought bad. >> the teachers and parents may need a bonus. not the kids didn't study that. had to be a collective source. >> in high school history class, i sat next to the valedictorian, victoria, i hope you are doing well. >> you sat next to her and what? >> no cheating. let's talk more about the war of

gift mistake with your spouses? >> i don't think so. >> you get it right all the time? >> i have not been told otherwise. i vice president none told. >> what is your go tf to gift for debra? >> boy, steaks. >> you feed her. there you have it. >> hey, you know the gift of meat. you can't go wrong. anyway you know a nice t-bone, you know what i'm saying? we got some heavy showers and thunderstorms right now from home haugh, making their way towards des moines and kansas city and so the area we are going to be watching today, really an enhanced risk of strong storms from nebraska on into iowa, parts of missouri and kansas, 37 million people at risk. a few tornadoes possible. we are watching hurricane blanca 30 miles south-southeast of cabo san lukas. 125 mile per hour winds towards
