a word, accused terrorist, umar farouk abdulmutallab surprised everyone. he changed his plea this morning to guilty. >> pleading to something with a life sentence is not something i recommend. >> reporter: defending himself, he ignored the advice of a stand by lawyer and told the court he was guilty of eight charges including a weapon of mass destruction, terrorism and attempted murder. >> i don't believe there was a particular photograph or piece of evidence that caused that. i think mr. abdulmutallab had something he wanted to say and he made a statement. >> reporter: that statement came after the plea when he said the explosives hidden in the underwear with a blessed weapon to save the lives of innocent muslims. >> he don't regret trying to kill innocent people. you don't feel remorse about it.

>> reporter: passengers on the plane the night of the attack were as surprised. >> i'm totally shocked. >> reporter: confident justice was served. >> he was guilty. >> he did everything that he said he did. we witnessed it. so, i'm -- i don't know what the sentence is going to be but yeah, i mean, he deserves what he gets. >> reporter: what he will get is the only question left in this high profile case. abdulmutallab faces the possibility of life in prison. sentencing is set for january 12th. live in detroit, i'm jay gray. back to you. >> thank you. the obama administration is pushing for tougher sanctions against iran for a violation of international law. it comes after two men were charged with planning to assassinate the saudi ambassador to the u.s. officials say they had the backing of high officials in

iran. one of the suspects is a naturalized american citizen of iranian decent. he had a home in austin, texas. his wife lives there. he only used the address to get a driver's license. >> we have been separated for a long time. we don't have a relationship. we don't have anything to do with each other. this is going to jeopardize our jobs, our lives, the neighbors. we don't want that. we just -- my family and i want to be in peace and move on like we were. we don't have absolutely nothing to do with this. >> neighbors say they saw him last month and say he was acting strangely. they say their attempts to be neighborerly got nowhere. the syrian government says that allegations of their citizens spying in the u.s. are baseless and unacceptable.

tonight, the man in northern virginia is in jail. he's accused of spying on americans who oppose president assad's regime. elaine has reaction to this. >> it isn't against the law to video tape a protest, but it's how it was used afterward that got their attention. the case they built against this u.s. citizen is serious. on a quiet rural street in virginia, residents watched as federal agents raided this home yesterday. according to neighbors, his wife and children rented the house the past two years. no one knew them very well. >> not really. just waving and saying hi. a lot of vehicles up and down the road. people going in and out of the house. obviously with forensic materials, that kind of thing.

>> still wearing street clothes, he told a federal judge at the first court appearance he wanted to hire his own attorney. for now, he's in federal custody. in a 15-page indictment, he collected video and audio of people protesting against the syrian government. then passed it along to them so it could be used to silence them. the indictment describes a recent trip to syria, a meeting with him and president assad and an e-mail in washington, d.c. >> we knew something was going on. they had been following him for quite a while. >> reporter: this is a photo from his twitter page. there were five tweets from last january. sources say he worked at a variety of car dealerships across northern virginia. >> it's bizarre to have it happening across the street from you. and scarey. if you can't trust your

neighbors, then i don't know what you are supposed to do. >> he will make another appearance in federal court friday for a detention hearing asking a judge to be released on bond. back to you. >> thanks. tonight, police say they are looking for a man who tried to abduct a 16-year-old girl on her way to skill. it happened in oakton, virginia about 6:30 this morning. the teenager told police he started talking to her before asking her to get in the car. the suspect grabbed her and tried to force her into a baby n the woman accused of stabbing a shopper outside a target store in prince george's county will remain behind bars. there's mounting evidence against the suspect linked to an

attack in 2005. chris gordon has more on this. >> reporter: she confessed to police she killed -- that she stabbed the woman here at the target yesterday. given her history, having been charged with other stabbings people wonder if the judicial system failed. customers at target find it hard to believe that the stabbing suspect was free after being charged in 2005 with stabbing two people at montgomery mall. she was found not criminally responsible in that case. she was sent to the mental hospital and released 60 days ago to a half way house. >> people wonder why? why was she out to begin with? she should have been taken care of. >> that shouldn't have happened. i don't understand how they allowed that to happen. >> reporter: the victim was loading groceries into her vehicle when she was attacked. that's according to court

documents that indicate she gave a written confession saying she did not know the victim. in court, she appeared by closed circuit tv and was read the charges against her by the judge. attempted first degree murder with a possibility of life sentence. assault charges and reckless endangerment. they carry the possibility of another seven years. she poses a threat to the community. we would like to make sure she's not able to harm another citizen and should be held for as long as it's appropriate to keep our community safe. >> she's seen on a store camera trying to buy knives when her credit card was declined she grabbed the bag with the knives inside and walked to the target where the attack occurred. pat brown is a criminal profiler. >> i don't know who put her on the streets. who decided she didn't have mental problems, that she could handle being out there.

it's a terrible mistake. it's a problem we have with the system. we let people out too soon. >> reporter: the victim in the stabbing is named in court papers. news 4 decided not to make her name public. she lives with her husband and two young children in a townhouse not far from the torgt. i spoke to her husband today. he says she is in stable condition. they are grateful. it could have been worse. she was stabbed in the throat and torso. they are grateful for the outpouring of community support. that's the latest from buoy, maryland. back to you in the studio. >> thank you, chris. wet out there. cloudy. yucky. doug. what's up? >> you go from yucky to doug. all right. that's exactly what it is, fairly yucky. it's going to continue to be that way through the rest of the evening hours. most likely for at least portions of tomorrow and friday. out there right now, 64 degrees.

a major change of tactics by defense of michael jackson's doctor. they abandoned their theory that jackson gave himself the propofol. they claim swallowing the drug wouldn't have killed him. we have the report. >> reporter: in a surprising move, lawyers for dr. conrad murray dropped the claim jackson may have swallowed propofol after a study that showed any effect from swallowing it would be trivial. testimony canontinues with a cordologist that reviewed the case. he told the court he found six deviations in care given by dr. murray and the alleged missteps

directly contributed to the pop star's death. >> giving propofol in someone's home unmonitored without the proper equipment, medical personnel or back up was an extreme deviation. >> reporter: under cross-examination, he held firm in his opinion. >> dr. murray spent nine hours getting him to sleep. now you are telling me he should have awakened him? >> he shouldn't put him to sleep in the first place. it's not for sleep. >> reporter: the medical examiner who performed jackson's autopsy had a blow that jackson may have given himself propofol. >> that does not support self-administration, is that accurate? >> yes, to me, that scenario seems less reasonable. >> reporter: also on tuesday, the taped interview with police. he described the moment

jackson's children learned their father died. >> cried and cried and cried. his daughter uttered a lot of words of unhappiness. >> reporter: as the prosecution winds down the case, the defense will call their witnesses. it's unclear if dr. murray himself will take the stand. nbc news, los angeles. the prosecution will call two more witnesses. it's not clear whether dr. murray will take the stand. a scarily scene on a highway in florida today. it was a plane in trouble and crash landed on the florida turnpike. it happened about 1:00 today in the miami area. two people were injured in that crash. police say the single engine plane had mechanical problems. the pilot was trying to make it to the airport but couldn't make it that far.

it was a good job trying to avoid hitting cars. the pilot and one passenger were the only ones injured. nobody is getting by that, are they? >> not too many exits off that florida turnpike. >> messy on the roads for us now. >> it's the way it will be for the rest of the evening and part of the rush hour over the next 24 to 48 hours. get ready to wait awhile or give yourself extra time. the rain is really coming down toward the white house. you can see the fog out there. it's barely making it to the washington monument. this is the same area of rain that came through the airport a bit earlier. the rain is out of there. we are looking better out there toward the airport. things are clearing up. you can notice the wet roadways. high temperature, 66 degrees. the low temperature, 64 degrees. the temperature only rose two degrees. how about that?

interception in each game. meanwhile, his counter part on sunday, michael vick is not very sharp. vick threw a career high. eight touchdowns, seven imts. as a team, the eagles are struggling. a league high, 15 times regardless, rex grossman knows the eagles won't roll over. >> especially at 1-4. we are going to get their best shot. you know, this is a huge game for both teams. we know they are one of the most talented teams in the nfl. an angry, talented team, it's going to be a challenge. we'll be ready for it. we expect our best game as well. >> the dream team made the acquisitions in the off season. they are at 1-4 right now trying to find theirselves. it's a time for us to expand our lead. >> this is a big game.

a division game. we understand our opportunity to separate ourselves in the devision. we also know we have to take care of business and do things the right way and play one of our best games because we are playing a very, very talented team, a team we know is desperate for a win. they don't want to go into a biweek, 1-5. we are going to get a shot. >> the eagles are trying to rally around the coach who is now in the hot seat. wide receiver called a players only meeting hoping to spark the team against the redskins. among the players who spoke out, michael vick. he remains confident in his football team. >> i mean we know how good we are. that's the bottom line. we know how good we can become. still gonna work hard each day. it can turn around. every guy in the locker room has to have their mind set we can turn around. trying to be the best at your position.

in doing that, you will be a good football team. it has to be the mind set. trying to play mistake-free football, it's not that way. sometimes things don't go the way you want them to go. every play is not going to be a perfect play. you have to push it and keep moving forward. i think i have to take on that mind set. >> michael vick is confident. do you think players only meetings actually work? >> i don't know. i can recall situations where they have had such meetings. >> yeah. >> teams coming out and kick some serious butt after that. >> fired up. >> it doesn't happen every time. these guys are going to come in here like crazed dogs. whatever the case is going to be. we are going to have to bite them around the throat and kill them. >> that's the game plan. it's what i like to hear. these players only meetings, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. >> let's hope it doesn't work. >> exactly.

hope that one doesn't work. hometown hockey. caps goaltender missed today's practice with a lower body injury. he could play against pittsburgh. if he cant, someone will be ready. he will bounce back. monday night, he gave up five goals in regulation. he said it was his worst game in five years. five of 23 saves were in ot. the caps went on to win a shoot out. he was clutch. he was shaky at times. the coach said you shouldn't be concerned. >> it's one game. i mean we know how good a goalie he is. we have seen great players in other sports strike out in a game. didn't mean they were bad players. we already knew what they were like. we have seen tremendous pitchers last one inning.

but we knew they were coming back because they are tremendous pitchers. thomas is a tremendous goaltender. never once lost faith in him. he's going to be tremendous for us this year. >> i like that comparison. thomas to a big league baseball slugger. he's going to come back. it is only one game. obviously, you want to see him make a good impression. bounce back. if he plays tomorrow, maybe he'll have a shut out. thanks.
