we'll be right >>> you are not going to believe this gruesome discovery in the florida everglades. a fisherman found a pair of alligators feeding on a human body. it happened about 20 miles west of fort lauderdale. officials do not think the geathers killed the man. they say his body a fears have been in the body for quite some time. right now authorities do say they have more questions than answers. >> definitely want to identify who the victim is, and possibly figure out what happened to them, how did they end up here, could it be a homicide, could it and suicide, could it have been natural, a fisherman. >> divers recovered the bod which other with rifles stood watch. medical examiner work to go determine a cause of death. room night you are about to see a shocking case every road rage caught on camera. >> it happened after a memorial day bike ride for veterans in florida. in the video you can see a driver and a couple on a motorcycle getting into a heated argument at the stop light. the driver then backs up, and runs over the pair on the motorcycle, knocking the man and the woman

over the everglades in florida, four and a half minutes from warning to crash. e time, except, wolf, in the case where either the fire takes out all the communications in one go and here you have a fire or an alert from the avionics bay. in the avionics bay is all of the communication equipment. that's the first thing to bear in mind. here you may have a case where they were not able to communicate rather than just not being responsive to communicating, and the second thing it tells me that whatever incident happened may have led up to a catastrophic failure. again, i am not going to hang my hat on whether it was a bolt or fire or lithium, doesn't matter. we can't say with any degree of certainty. but the fact they didn't or couldn't communicate is relevant. >> what's interesting, flying 37,000 feet, simply cruising, very safe. the weather was good. there was no problem with lightning or anything like that. for some mechanical failure in a relatively new plane, an airbus which has an excellent safety record to occur, that's raising the suspicion of terror or bomb

i stood in the middle of the everglades with the team looking for answers. what became clear was that the cause of the accident was not mechanicalal. expired oxygen containers were placed in the cargo hold of this plane without proper packaging or labeling. the investigation revealed to these oxygen containers packed in boxes with only a layer of bubble wrap started a fire and produced a chemical reaction that allowed this fire to sustain, burn, explode and ultimately destroy the plane. this experience was foundational to my experience of safety as more than an idea, but rather as a process that can be implemented, developed, learned and continuously improved and there could not be a clearer introduction into how critical proper hazardous transportation material is to our overall greater safety landscape. i've witnessed firsthand the devastation that accidents in transportation can cause, both the l the loss of life and the lasting impacts to families and communities. so when i was asked to serve as the admin straighter i was not only honored i understand th

that's what brought down a flight in the everglades in 1996. oke alerts, they may not even have been caused by smoke. "the new york times" reported today that sensor warnings like these could also be set off by conditions like condensation or sudden drop in air pressure. it doesn't have to be smoke. in any case those are clues. we now know something catastrophic happened onboard that plane. we still don't know what. if it was a terror attack, no one is taking responsibility for it. we may only find out the cause of this through the physical investigation of the remains of the plane. given where the first debris was discovered today, finding the rest of the plane and its recorders is going to be a challenge. authorities narrowed the search area to 40 square miles. this area is nearly two miles deep and unforgiving territory. egypt, greek, french, and american ships an planes are all scouring that patch of the mediterranean. more ships are expected to arrive in coming days. they're on a deadline. the black recorder boxes only send out pings for 30

this is what we saw with valujet over the everglades many years ago. it's what we saw with swiss air. and so, erin, we don't know the cause of this. but we are most definitely getting extremely important pieces of the jigsaw that now gives us the location of the incident. the likely reason why they couldn't communicate. >> and so, you know, tim -- as richard points out, and les, you know have a location. that location appears to be the front of the plane. the bathroom right mind the cockpit and the cockpit itself in some cascading order. when you put those pieces together, these alerts together, what do you think? >> well, i think there is certainly a possibility, erin, that it was a malfunction with some of the systems on the plane that may have started a fire. you think of twa 800, a similar event happened off the coast of long island. with the -- one of the fuel tanks ask a spark igniting the gases in that tank. in this situation, we cannot rule out terrorism yet. because this is -- you look at the two targets. france and egyptair. both have been tar

it allows for stronger investments in the army corps of engineers for critical projects in the everglades and great lakes as well as additional funding to address flooding in areas like houston. notably, for the people of northern ohio, the bill meets the need to comply with state law prior to open lake disposal of dredged materials. the bill also provides robust funding for many years at the department of energy. it is sad, however, that the majority would jeopardize this good start by adding in ill-suited, ideological or nongermane riders on the clean water act, guns on army corps lands, national ocean policy and california drought. i should not have to remind our majority colleagues that similar provisions imperiled passage of this bill in the past. in fiscal year 2016, nearly all of the democratic members of the house voted against this bill with far fewer poisoned pill riders. the administration is on record with veto threats over nearly identical language. as such, i cannot support this bill in its current form. every year this important bill sets the path for america's energy futur

we saw that 20 years ago with the value jet clash in the florida everglade, it was something about that big that told them what caused that accident. what they want to do is gather as much as they can because if there was an explosion, i can see it exploded out, how the metal is tearing out and that would suggest where it was on the plane and whether it was part of the mechanics or whether something maybe from in the passenger cabin or down in the hold where luggage is. the difficulty now is as we look at the mediterranean, the area we're talking about in some spots is up to 2 miles deep. i've spoken to the experts who have worked in this region doing salvage operation, primarily for old shifts but they've done salvage operations they can do at incredible depths of 2 miles down. the problem is when you get to the bottom of the mediterranean, it's sort of a clay-like material and very silty. as something comes down in the water, remember, it's not like you're dropping something in your bathtub and it goes straight down, this is a long distance and can make a turn like this and go hundred
