guy thing them on what they want the f.b.i. to basically. get involved in in terms of espionage in terms of intelligence activity so it's no surprise. range of various leaked documents and other kinds of information that's come out over the last year or so shows that the f.b.i. has been systematically spying. and systematically helping corporate entities to spy on. civil society groups occupy wall street activists of spied on organizations like greenpeace have been spied on and the pretext unfortunately has been terrorism we've actually used the specter of terrorism to justify some of these operations but there was an investigation by the office of inspector general in the u.s. department of justice which looked into some of the f.b.i.'s practices over about a five year period in relation to these organizations and they found out that actually there was no justification that would in any way resemble terrorism there was no threat of violence there was no criminal activity i didn't factor this investigation can then the f.b.i. and said that th

the f.b.i. and track down who that number belongs to using warrants and things like that. >> pelley: john, thanks very much. it caught our eye this evening when a top medical journal strongly advised moat americans to stop taking vitamins. publication, "annals of internal medicine", said vitamins are largely useless and can be dangerous. most americans don't think so, 52% of adults take a multivitamin. vitamin sales this year are estimated to be more than $11 billion. we asked dr. jon lapook to fill us in. >> reporter: the headline of the editorial accompanying today's studies offers some blunt consumer advice. "enough is enough: stop wasting money on vitamin and mineral supplements." dr. edgar miller of johns hopkins is one of the authors of the editorial. >> the stop wasting your money means that perhaps you're spending money on things that you -- that aren't going protect you long term. what will protect you if you can spend that money on fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, low-fat dairy, things

the f.b.i. and n.s.a. are still trying to figure out the extent of what he took and how he did what he did. but what he did over the course of 2012 and 2013 was systematically download and copy files, thousands and thousands of files from a facility in hawaii that the n.s.a. ran. >> is there any idea, do you think the n.s.a. has any idea how much information he has? >> they are still trying to grapple with that. even so many months later to figure out exactly how much he took. and to some degree the american government has been scrambling with each new revealation in the press, the foreign and the american press, to mitigate the damage whether it is relationships with other countries or other intelligence services. >> and you have been writing regularly about this store ricks the n.s.a. surveillance and revealations. what has been the most surprising thing that has been revealed if his treasure trove of data? >> i think that you go back to the very beginning. i think in my mind the most extraordi

senior correspondent john miller was an assistant director of the f.b.i. at the time of levinson's disapearn. john, what can you tell us now? >> reporter: scott, for seven years robert levinson's family kept a secret that he was operating under contract for the c.i.a., gathering information and reports on various countries, including iran. these revelations may dramatically change the dynamics of negotiations for his return. >> there were no words to describe the nightmare my family and i have been living everyday. >> reporter: christine levinson has been pleading for information on the fate of her husband since he disappeared. it was 2007 when levinson flew to the iranian island of kish in the persian gulf. later, we are told, he was sent to a prison and then a hospital in tehran. by 2010, reports had levinson somewhere near the pakistani border. the u.s. government's search for levinson has since grown cold. iran has at times seemed to know about levinson. last year, charlie rose of cbs "this morning" put the matter to then president of iran mahmoud ahmad

snooping totally ignores the great snooping being done by the f.b.i. the feds have unveiled their greatest technological breakthrough since whatever they used to keep mulder and scully from doing it. they were perfect for each other! print my fan fiction! (cheers and applause) jim? >> our government has had the ability to turn on our web cams on our computers and monitor us at home and we don't even know it. >> the feds are reportedly able to use secret technology to disable the web cam's green light so you have no idea you're on. a source tells the "washington post" that the f.b.i. has been able to hack into our web cams for several years. >> stephen: folks, this is a major breakthrough. previously you wan if you wantey on someone through your web cam you had to pay $1.99 per minute. (laughter) and what they were strapping on was not a suicide vest.

used the pay pal fourteen case to justify increased appropriations for the f.b.i. under the mantle of cyber security prosecutions i'm so this is this is big business you know in washington and also clearly if you look at the structured settlement that happened with the pay pal case. which was the first major cybersecurity case in the post wiki leaks world. essentially the d.o.j. extracted from this plea deal one plea to a felony count and what's important about that is that allows the f.b.i. regardless of whether that felony count gets you know actually withdrawn in a year time it allows the f.b.i. to count on their sister statistics for cyber crime so this is really about the lack of debate that we've had a year ago two years ago about online protest about the fact that culture is conducted predominantly online especially amongst. many politically active people today or younger people too and that we need to really actually examine the economic and social logical landscape that we currently exist in and not rely on models from twenty years ago to try to discuss the

this is a letter the f.b.i. serves on a telephone company or an internet provider that says "who does this phone number belong to? who's the subscriber to this e- mail address?" basic business records. but what the panel is recommending is that any time the f.b.i. uses a national security letter they bring it to a judge to authorize it. that basically makes it not an n.s.l. but a court order. this is a bread-and-butter tool they use in counterterrorism investigations and espionage cases based on foreign suspects about 20,000 times a year. so this is something that they're looking at over there with a lot of angst. >> pelley: john miller, thank you. more on this on cbs "this morning" tomorrow. tonight there is a new recommendation for the treatment of high blood pressure. according to a report by a panel of experts, some older americans who are taking medication don't need to do that. here's elaine quijano. >> reporter: for decades, doctors recommended people over 60 start medication if their blood pressure was 14

the hell with this. all right... i'm telling you, i'm not-- f.b.i.! don't move! don't move! hands on your head. put the gun down.

he made his deadly bombs he injured many people he killed three he was sort of a mad genius and the f.b.i. pursued him for nineteen years before they finally caught him and when they raided the cabin they found a live bomb ready to go in the cabin and the story we like to tell there oh is that there was cooperation between law enforcement and reporters because. the post in the times to print his thirty five thousand word manifesto and he'd stop bombing and they did and it led to his arrest credible story those are engines from there and from one of the flights that hit the trade towers in new york that is part of the nine eleven investigation those are the shoe bomber shoes over there it's really really tough stuff. thank you for joining me on this inside look at history at the newseum in washington i hope everyone has a chance to visit here for my viewers out there i want to hear from you so there's a conversation on my facebook page and share your thoughts on twitter by tweeting at king's the eggs and using the at politicking hash tag that's all for this week's politicking. jamie diamon

the f.b.i. have a unique relationship and one invaluable since 9/11. i want to highlight a couple of the instances. in the fall of 2009, n.s.a. using 702 authority intercepted an e-mail from a terrorist located in pakistan. that individual was talking with an individual located inside the united states talking about perfecting a recipe for explosives. through legal process, that individual was identified and he was located in denver, colorado. the f.b.i. followed him to new york city and later executed search warrants with the new york joint terrorism task force and n.y.p.d. and found bomb-making components and backpacks. he later confessed to a plot to bomb the new york subway system with backpacks. also working with business records, the n.s.a. was able to provide a previously unknown number of one of the coconspirators. this was the first core al-qaeda plot since 9/11 directed from afghanistan. another example, n.s.a. was monitoring a known extremist in yemen. this individual was in contact wi

the f.b.i. uld track your stolen car across state lines, but it would not track your stolen child across state lines. there was no infrastructure to support missing children. >> all of us were reading about the turmoil that was going on with the search. and none of us felt that was right, of course. but the help find johnny gosch foundation was something that they would have the confidence that this would keep going no matter what happened to them. >> the foundation was started for changing the legislation, for law enforcements responding immediately when a child is taken. >> you have no idea what it's like to look for your missing child. it is hell on earth. >> the two words "went missing" are fighting words to me. when there's evidence that they are kidnapped, then the word is kidnapped, not went missing. >> i understand that you got three phone calls just a week ago. was it johnny? >> yes, it was, jane. we received the first of three calls. they were six minutes apart and each phone call laste

the f.b.i. did not get ahold of any samples from texas, but the department of defense did for exactly what hank said, namely to look at the frequency of d.n.a., and because that was said to be forensic, the investigative reporter thought that it was going into a database. i emailed her and could not persuade her otherwise despite the fact it was very clear. >> i will accept the friendly amendment. >> but i want to raise an even broader issue of something we were talking about with the king case. i always come back to the same things. and namely, what's the difference between being arrested and not being arrested? a lot of people get arrested. it's estimated that, what is it, 20%, 30% of the population, more than that, is going to be rested. is there a real difference? i have written with my more provocative moments with some colleagues that maybe we ought to consider having at the stage the onatal testing done, genetic test for the code, not done by the police, uploaded to a database for use in t

we know that we have not been going through this alone. >> at this time, the f.b.i. says it is not looking for any additional suspects related to those robberies or the death of officer stauffer. >> al ax ender, what else do we know about this suspect? >> well, right now, police are holding a pres conference. we'll bring you any details just as soon as we have them. >> and we want to update you on something we just received this information into the cnn news room. the nanl of that suspect, we are told, is mario dwar net. again, that is mario garnet, the name of that suspect that we're looking at. you're looking at surveil enls video. we have not been able to identify that suspect, but we have that name now. and i know that alexander field is going to be getting more information and we will bring it to you as soon as it becomes available. >> two theories ochb the cause behind last year's deadly attack in benghazi are likely both wrong. an in-depth report finds al-qaida was probably not involved in the assault that killed four americans. nor was the attack sparked solel

. >> reporter: when the f.b.i. ched the cold case initiative several years ago it brought hope to families looking for answers for death dating back to the civil rights the era and hundreds of killings have been looked at and closed and questions still linger and we have the second report from mississippi. >> in the back woods of mississippi they return to a dark place from their childhood. >> we lost our father here. my mother lost her husband here. and today is an opportunity to say, daddy, we are still seeking the truth. >> reporter: in 1964 kathryn and shirley's father cliffton walker was driving down the road when he was ambushed by a group of white men and shot. they were barely teenagers at the time and despite the investigation the first contact with f.b.i. is when they were handed a letter telling them the case was closed. >> you brought me a letter stating you are closing the case and yet never took time to meet with our family to discuss any findings or any interviews concerning our father, captain walker

office of the government accountability office has criticized the department of homeland security the f.b.i. for not making it clear how you can get removed from the list if your name is on there by mistake and with that many people on the list how can security officials really distinguish who is actually a national security risk i think that's the question that needs to be answered and i think that with the increased attention to the surveillance that we've seen over the last several months it provides us with a window of opportunity to ask our elected officials for more accountability and oversight about really how we can make corrections how we can get our names off quickly right now there's virtually no way to do that with the exception of a program called the traveler redress inquiry program that the department of homeland security has started where if you're stopped many times at the airports you can investigate and ask them to look into it you know the argument that the needle in the haystack in order to be able to find the haystack if you remember that is why the n.s.a. surveillance

the term patsy yes the first one of the intelligence community lies to the warren commission both the f.b.i. in the cia have previous knowledge of oz wald and ruby for that matter that they deny we now know on the basis of the testimony from cia officials like victor marsh the robert plumlee and others that oswald was part of a defector program that he'd worked for the agency explains why when he returned from russia he gets this is shipped back immediately without ever asking for it and we pay is is airline fare we the taxpayers in they give him a five thousand dollar loan he's clearly got ties to the intelligence community when he's arrested new orleans for handing out pro castro flyers and he has one phone call does he calls wife does he call his lawyer no he calls the head of the f.b.i. in new orleans and an hour later he's out of jail. you conspiracy buff not at all i don't believe that that flying saucers that landed in roswell in the attack on america was in one i'm a political realist i i did eight national presidential campaigns i spent substantial time with some of the politicians

>> fredericka, the f.b.i. says the search is over. the intense man hunt that had authorities on the lookout across the country. police say a man opened fire before taking off. >>> didn't purchase the tickets himself. however, lottery rules said that he had to wait a year to see if anyone else would come forward and, lucky for him, they didn't. lucky for him twice. >> well, an ice breaker is inching its way to the ship stuck in those frozen waters of antarctica. the mission has been on board for a week now. will it get there soon? we'll find out. mine was earned orbiting the moon in 1971. afghanistan in 2009. on the u.s.s. saratoga in 1982.
