i want to bring in now tom fuentes, former assistant director of the fbi. he's now cnn legal analyst. tom, again, you personally have been involved, sadly, in cases like this. and this is a very sad case, a very somber announcement by the police who have been involved in this search from the beginning for more than a month now. what's your takeaway from this press conference? >> reporter: well, i think that in the minds of the police, they're pretty certain that it's hannah graham. i mean, they're all but saying so. they're going to officially confirm that, obviously, at the medical examiner's office. and after the official autopsy. but the fact that they were in contact with the parents and would have additional information to lend an identification or at least a preliminary identification, it sounds to me like they're pretty sure this is it. especially when they're thanking the searchers and calling off any further search. you know, unfortunately, there have been other young ladies that have been abducted and have gone missing in the charlottesville area.

hang with me tom fuentes, alexandra field, do you have something? >> we want to bring you a statement from the school district we're getting in now. from the marysville school district. they are saying "the marysville pilchuck high school is in lock down. police and emergency services have responded. the marysville school district lockdown procedures will remain in effect at marysville pilchuck. we will continue in cooperation with law enforcement. so this is the first that we're hearing from the school district. obviously trying to get this message out to parents, the emergency situation which we're seeing unfold here 11,000 students in the school district, 2,000 students in this high school. so they're trying to get this communication out there. some of our affiliates have also been reporting they're sharing that statement, they're also letting us know that they were first getting tweets indicating that the shooting happened. at 10:45 pacific time. just about an hour, a little less than that, a mother who spoke to one of our affiliates, kiro, conf

thanks very much, danny cevallos, tom fuentes and mel robbins. our breaking coverage of this story continues right now. >>> you are in the "cnn newsroom," and i'm jim sciutto in new york. sad, sobering developments to report today in the case of hannah graham. she is the 18-year-old university of virginia student who disappeared in the early morning hours of september 13th, 35 days ago. a little over an hour ago, police announced that human remains were found earlier today outside of charlottesville, virginia. and while those remains have not yet been identified, they're now classifying the hannah graham case as a death investigation. >> it was some 35 days ago, some five weeks, since 18-year-old university of virginia student hannah graham disappeared from our downtown pedestrian mall. since that time, the charlottesville police department, in cooperation with the county of albemarle, and jurisdictions throughout the commonwealth of virginia engaged in an unprecedented search in an effort to find her. and return her to her family. countless hour

joining me now, cnn analyst, and former director tom fuentes, and former scout of the survival school. tom, what do you make of the fact he was able to stay out there so long? is it a testament to his abilities or also the danger for searchers in trying to find a guy like this who is prepared, perhaps, for weeks or months for something like that and could easily attack, shoot people, trying to hunt for him? >> actually, that is true. both things are true, anderson, starting with your second point. you know, he would have been able to shoot additional police officers from hundreds of yards away without them being able to see them, with them using cover of the forest. places where they crossed a road or were gathering to discuss their search patterns in a wide open area. so he easily could have killed many, many more police officers after the initial killing that he did. so that is one thing that made the search more difficult, to go more slowly to try to be more cautious in their approach to this in very dense woods. i think from the beginning, he pro-positioned supplies and canned foo

joining us, the community activist john gaskin, our justin perez, jeffrey toobin and tom fuentes, therector. john gaskin, you're there in missouri. you just heard what the police chief tom jackson said. he says he's not ready to step down. what is your reaction? >> i've spoken to several community leaders and many people feel as though he should step down. since the very beginning of the unrest, people have called repeatedly for him to step aside. they've asked for his resignation. several major community groups have also asked for his resignation. so i stand with them on this matter. chief jackson needs to step aside and allow fresh leadership to come in and allow the st. louis county police department to come in and take over the police department there and really start from scratch so they can begin healing the relationship with the community. >> tom fuentes, a lot of people think this situation in ferguson has been mishandled from the very beginning, this police chief should have stepped down weeks ago. what is your analysis in >> not everything was mishandled. the fact that the b

missouri state senator marie ladal and tom fuentes. do you know why these individuals were arrested? what were they exactly doing? >> as you know, wolf, today is moral monday. i have to tell you that for the most part, things have gone very well. but i do know that there are some people who were arrested this afternoon, including cornell west as you stated, and a couple of other people from st. louis. i will tell you that today has been absolutely incredible. there have been so many experiences and opportunities to see really the hearts of some of the police officers, as well as the clergy from all different types of faiths. in one circumstance, we saw an officer cry when he was approached by a priest. he knew what he was feeling on the inside. all of the protesters were very glad to see those tears from that officer's face today. >> tom fuentes, law enforcement makes 19 arrests, include progress fess s professor cornell west. they have to balance law and order. >> the accounts i read were some of the arrests were made when people woul

you don't really know what is going on. >> we're going to talk to you again, shawn henry, tom fuentes, and a student also, we'll talk to him about what he heard and more importantly what he wants people to know about one of his friends who lost his life tonight. >>> just ahead, the governor of new york and new jersey, on tough new guidelines on people who come back from hot zones with ebola. the question is will it make the outbreak even worse? how could switchgrass in argentina, change engineering in dubai, aluminum production in south africa, and the aerospace industry in the u.s.? at t. rowe price, we understand the connections of a complex, global economy. it's just one reason over 70% of our mutual funds beat their 10-year lipper average. t. rowe price. invest with confidence. request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information, risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing. >>> three students are critically ill after gunshot wounds, nate heckendorf knew the shooter, today he is with us. i know this is an extraordinarily difficult day

let's bring in our law enforcement analyst tom fuentes. tom, a beretta .40 caliber gun.hat can of damage that can do. >> that's a little larger caliber hand gun. it's not as large as a .44 magnum, but it's the caliber used by most police officers on the street, most federal agents. it's not a small caliber gun. if you get shot at point blank in the back of the head as some of these students were. >> how do high school students get access to a weapon like this? >> we see this picture of him receiving a birthday present three months ago, a large hunting rifle with a scope. apparently, you know, they spend time hunting and spend time outdoors. that's not uncommon for a 14-year-old to have that kind of experience if they live out in a rural area where there is hunting and outdoor activity. >> he doesn't fit the profile, though, of someone who goes into a school, starts shooting fellow students and shoots himself, does he? >> no. the problem is that people suffering from really bad cases of depression often on the outside don't show it. i look back when i was 14 thinking i wi

let's talk about this with our law enforcement analyst tom fuentes, he's also former assistant directorel james reis a cnn global affairs analyst joins us. tom, let me start with you. if it's been confirmed he's travel to syria and is an american citizen from wisconsin, is he breaking the law? >> hi, poppy. i don't think so. i think we've had cases where americans went to join in some fight overseas. he's not involved in a civil war to overthrow a form government. but we had american pilots go to help the chinese before world war ii, go to help the british in the battle of britain in 1940 before we entered world war ii, so i think there's a history of people going to help in a cause and in this case to try to defend the kurds from invasion by an outside force, isis. >> and to you, colonel reese, jordan matson said he's a u.s. army veteran and he's not an active soldier so you can assume the skills and knowledge that he would have. if you look at the situation and the risk to any westerner over there, what do you make of it? >> well, first i give jordan a lot of credit. it takes a lot of

joining us john dpgaskin, don lemon and tom fuentes.ssouri after last night's shooting in the st. louis area. is there a sense that the increased unrest will never end? what is going on? >> we certainly hope that it will not start back up. last night was a very peaceful night, although you had many people that were angry within that neighborhood, protesters that came from ferguson and across the area went to the scene of the shooting. you had hundreds there last night. but there was no violence. police officers used a very large amount of restraint. there was no violence from police officers or towards police officers. i believe last night under the circumstances was a very exceptional and peaceful night considering what we've seen. so i hope people will remain peaceful with the protests coming to town this weekend. tensions are still high. cooler heads prevailed last night. >> let me talk about that, tom. the st. louis medical examiner announced that the 18-year-old was shot seven or eight times after firing on the police officer. offi

joining me is tom fuentes on the telephone. tell me what is going on over here, tom. there's been a lot of fears that some people residing in the united states could go over to syria or iraq and join isis. it being loolooks like the fbi arrested someone allegedly planning to do so. >> wolf, this is yet another person. you recall that the fbi arrested a woman boarding a plane at the denver airport. a lot is made of individuals who return from syria or iraq and return from the terrorism and could pose a threat when they return here but the fbi has its hands here and trying to determine when people here are discussing joining, do they mean it? are they really going to do it or just dragging and talking to friends and once they get the airfare and decide to go, literally the fbi is walking them down the jetway before they put the cuffs on them to show that they really did mean it, they were really on their way to do it. so this is not the first time and it won't be the last time and it's the fear of the fbi that they can't track every individual with aspiration to join or

tom fuentes is back with us, along with jeff gardere as well. tom, let me go to you. when investigators try to figure out why this happened, the real motive here, while we hear about school shootings and sadly this country has become way too familiar with them, this one doesn't seem to be in line with typically what we have experienced, you know, the gunman being an outcast, someone who had been bullied. that had been the pattern. now we're talking about somebody who, many have described, jaylen fryberg as very popular, crowned the homecoming prince last week. his sentiments were very public on twitter, being frustrated about the possible breakup with a girlfriend, what do investigators do with this kind of information? how do people really kind of wrap their heads around what is happening in our schools today and how our young people resolving conflicts? >> the problem here is if you're talking about somebody who has mental health issues, if they're suffering from depression, it's a very insidious disease. >> tom, i apologize for interrupting. they're trying to addre

paul cruickshank is cnn's terrorism analyst and tom fuentes, cnn law analyst and former assistant directoro the fbi. welcome to both of you. >> thank you, carol. >> thanks for being here. tom, if if i look at this fbi poster i can't identify this man. can anyone? >> if someone's a family member or close front or classmate, by his mannerisms, maybe not in the poster it wouldn't be that easy but if you see the video with him, and his expressions, the way he tilts his head, the way he speaks, the way he moves, all of that together might help somebody say oh, yeah, i know who that is. >> you know, in watching the video of this man, the mask is very tight, sort of outlines his nose and the shape of his face. is there computer technology that can sort of enhance that in any way, tom? >> no, they've tried to use various facial recognition type technology on that. it really takes a better, clearer picture, requires a clearer picture to analyze and they need to have somebody to compare it to right now so just having the face covered like that by itself, if that person is not already on record somew

we want to broo bring in paul crookshank our law enforcement analyst tom fuentes. i want to bring in a new picture of the shooter, of this murderer michael ze half bibeau this is the man who killed nathan cirillo and went into canadian parliament before being shot down. he is now dead. this is a photo of that man. was he an angry disturbed guy with a gun? was he radical liesed? we simply don't know. tom, this fear o over lone wolfs, it is a fear because of what they can accomplish. the big question is can they be stopped? >> john we're always shocked and astounded when a lone wolf case comes up. two years ago the heritage foundation here in washington issued a report citing 50 cases of home grown terrorists that were stopped in the u.s. alone since 9/11. every time one of these cases come up everybody is shocked and outraged. 20 of the toronto 18 case a suburban resident of toronto starts up this group, learns how to make bombs, practices, learns it well. he's in the process of purchasing three metric tons to use in toronto which would have been triple the amount u

barbara, you heard tom fuentes say how much work it is to do the tracking.mation in terms of what the pentagon is able to provide, whether it's here or overseas, people that can be interrogated overseas to lead to connections back here at home? >> well, certainly the intelligence community is operating in that region trying to learn whatever we can. we focus on how many bombs are falling in what part of iraq or syria every day. this is the part of the war that we do not see so readily. what i can tell you is the intelligence community, law enforcement, fbi, cia, the department of homeland security, they all now have very active programs trying to understand violent extremism in the united states, what is attracting people to it, what the network may be, where the connections are overseas and try and figure out how to deal with it. we know that local police department, state law enforcement is working with the federal government on this, going down into the communities, trying to identify these people, trying to track them. and basically, as you said, ashleig

joining us now, tom fuentes, and shawn henry, and dave cullen.is interesting, dave, we were talking to nate, a student at the school just before the break who said at the end what you have been saying all along. what we think we know about the shooters, often the stereotypes that we think. they're bullied, on the fringes of the school's social structure, that is not necessarily the case. in this case this young man seemed to have been popular. on the football team, homecoming court as well. >> it can affect all sorts of different things. by the way, that kid was really articula articulate. yeah, a little off the subject, but like going to high schools, first of all these really break my spirit. and i don't know how you cover all of these and people involved. i have gotten all sorts of tweets from teachers who tell me how hard it is for them. the good part is when i do talk to students, seeing kids like that, kids full of life, sorry it is off the subject, fills me with life -- >> what is also interesting that nate said, he saw this shooter this m

it's interesting, i want to bring in cnn law enforcement analyst tom fuentes and cnn analyst paul callan. police did the pep walkway out in the public for everyone to see. i'm sure they had a reason to are that. >> sure, carol, they wanted to put the public at ease and show them that it really was for real, that he was in custody, and no longer a danger to the community. >> tom, it's interesting frein spent weeks taunting police while in hiding and police chose to handcuff him with the officer's handcuffs he's accused of killing and put him into the cruiser that belonged to the trooperis' accused of killing. why did they do that? >> i think just for the symbolism of it, and to show, pay homage to the deceased officer dixon, but it also tells me that the marshal special operations tactical team which is an outstanding unit that made the arrest, tells me that they had him surrounded, they had already had him in pocket as we say for a period of time, enabling them to deliver the handcuffs and that squad car to the scene of the arrest. so they had him, they knew they had him, i'm sure they w

jean cassarez and tom fuentes. thank you for being with us. >>> is the nightmare on wall street over? the dow is down. investors are hoping for a big change, though, from last week's gut-wrenching roller coaster ride. a ride that may have enden on a high note but it's not erasing all the dow's gains for the years. cnn's christine romans is with me with the latest, good morning. >> don't worry, don't freak out, everybody. markets go up and markets go down. last week they went down. wednesday was the worst day of the week but it bounced back sharply from those lows and since then this is a market that has been reacting to earnings news and concerns about growth in europe and slowing growth in china. i mean, look how much you're up, carol, from those wednesday lows. the market, the dow basically flatter, a little lower on the year. the problem today, the problem today is ibm lowered its earnings targets. ibm is spinning off a chip making business. ieb gem one of the 30 dow components. >> there will be housing numbers.

tom fuentes, a cnn law enforcement analyst and a former assistant director of the fbi.pider marks, to you. surprised by isis capabilities? airstrikes doing very little to stop ice fris advancing. jihadist fighters now just miles away from baghdad and iraqi forces are threatening to flee. what needs to happen? >> well, clearly, what we have in baghdad right now is a heightened sense of concern. the baghdad international airport is on the western side of baghdad. anbar province is beyond that to the west. clearly, baghdad international is at risk. but as germany odierno indicated, he is not -- he doesn't have a kind of a raised sense of concern because there are capabilities on the ground right now. clearly apache helicopters. we do have advisers. and also bear in mind that the iraqi security forces that are any good at all are in and around baghdad. so we have the very best of the isf. and we've got the very best attack platforms that the army has to go after the fighters. but clearly, there's a concern because baghdad international and the rest of baghdad are within art

let's get more now with john gaskin and tom fuentes.heard today that the ferguson police chief, thomas jackson, he says he may be beginning to rethink his comments he made to cnn's jason carroll about not leaving, only yesterday. cnn's evan perez, as you know, broke the news on tuesday that there was a plan in the works for the chief to resign. what do you think is going on here? >> well, this is nothing unusual when it comes to his actions and the ferguson police department's actions. they appear to be very disorganized in terms of their messaging. many people in the community, as i have spoken with protesters and community leaders today, feel as though when he made those statements yesterday in your interview, there's a good possibility he was in denial regarding the future of the police department, regarding his future with the ferguson police department. but many people in the community feel as though his resignation or departure is coming very soon, and that's simply what the word is on the street within st. louis right now. >> it'

joining us here in "the situation room" is our law enforcement analyst, tom fuentes, former assistantector of the fbi and we're also being joined in virginia. all of these other cases are being reopened. they are going to try to check to see if there's any evidence linking this individual to any of those other cases. how unusual is that? >> it's not always that unusual. you have a number of open case where is a suspect wasn't developed where they could do a comparison, whether it be for fingerprints or dna or other physical evidence. once you develop something to compare, they can go back to the evidence that was obtained at the time of those investigations and if they obtained dna evidence, they now have a possible suspect to compare it to you a especially in the case where someone is incarcerated and would like it to be verified as is the case here. we asked the commonwealth of virginia, please look at this case and see if it's possible that matthew was involved. >> corey, what's been the reaction there in charlottesville and the area to this development, the reopening of this one c

we're back with tom fuentes and coy barefoot. coy, matthew is the suspect.chose not to try to get him out on bail or bond. is he talking in prison? what do we know about this? >> i don't believe he's talking in prison. i do know that jesse is being kept in -- it's about a 7 x 7 foot cell. there are no bars on the front. it's a thick, clear plexiglas front. he's being monitored at all times. there's a television set across from his cell that he watches without sound. i know his attorney has not asked for bail and in virginia, you are not eligible for bond on the charge of abduction with the intent to defile, unless you have incredibly rare circumstances that would be decided by a judge. but he took flight to galveston, texas, and had to be brought back over 1,300 miles away. so i guess his attorney is thinking why ask for what we know we won't get? >> if there's let media attention, do tips dry up and make the investigation more difficult for police? >> we certainly want to keep this top of mind for everyone. there are people around the world who have been to

joining us, tom fuentes, former assistant director of the fbi. stigative journalist coy barefoot, joining us from charlottesville, virginia. tom, how important is this new information that jesse matthew was working as a cab driver the night that morgan harrington went mising? >> very important, wolf. because it places him that much closer to being able to have been involved to what happened with morgan harrington. we heard about the linkage of forensic evidence, linking the two of them. so it's an important development. >> we know, coy, and you know this better than most because you're investigating there, but the virginia state police interviewed several cab drivers following harrington's disappearance in 2009, but they didn't interview matthew at the time. why not? >> reporter: i don't know specifically why they did not interview him. but we can confirm virginia state police released a statement last night that during the wake of morgan's disappearance when that investigation began, they did not interview mr. matthew, for some reason. they were

for more we turn to tom fuentes a cnn law enforcement analyst and former fbi assistant director and cnnmmentator and legal analyst mel robbins, good morning to you. i'll start with you, tom, we know that the chief in ferguson has been absolutely resolute. saying this is mine and i'm taking ownership of this. talking about what has happened in ferguson and the michael brown case. there's been backlash, we know there's been pressure. look at the tweet, the ferguson pd issued. the chief says he has not resigned, he has not been told to resign. he has not been fired. if he leaves, it will be his choice alone. what's going on here? our sources say he's out. >> at the end of the day it will not be his choice alone. and i think he probably will be out at the end. one of the difficult things for him has been even what he's done himself. he's taken ownership for every problem that's resulted since the time of the shooting. even items he couldn't own. for example, one thing he could take ownership of is that he didn't brief the public from the first day of the shooting from the first hours, to be

joining us here, tom fuentes, former assistant director of the fbi.investigative journalist coy barefoot is joining us from charlottesville. coy, what do you make of this use of drones to find hannah graham? >> we will do whatever we have to do to find her. i thought it was a terrific idea. charlottesville made international news. it was the first city in the world to issue a proclamation, a resolution expressing concern about the use of drones. and the city council here said we're okay with the use of drones. we just want to make sure civil liberties are protected in the process. so it's very interesting and perhaps ironic that here we see a drone from virginia tech being used here to help us find hannah and bring her home. >> tom, this drone technology, what can it done that people on the ground can't do? >> it can see down through trees, and also when you're looking at bodies of water, and apparently matthew liked to go fishing, it can see down and often to the bottom of small pounds and lakes if the body was in one of those locations. so it offers

well, let's bring in cnn law enforcement analyst tom fuentes, joining us my skype from livingston manor, new york. a john jay college of criminal justice. tom, let's go to you first at this point. they have found human remains. they have called off the search. they notified hannah graham's parents. why are they not naming her? >> well, they're going to wait up until they have an official identification which will happen at the medical examiner's office. probably will require dental records to be specific, but at this point the police do not name the person. nor do they call it a murder investigation or a suicide. it's a death investigation until the medical examiner declares that the victim was murdered. >> and, larry, we heard earlier jean casarez who was there on site saying she saw investigators combing through the surroundings with what appeared to be a rake. what kind of forensic evidence could they find there at that scene if, in fact, it is hannah graham? >> well, first of all, you have a person who was missing for 35 days. my best guess is she is totally skeletonized, which tell

joining us now, tom fuentes. he's a former assistant director of the fbi.e investigative journalist, coy barefoot in charlottesville, virginia. the search for hannah graham got bigger today with this mounted search effort, going to farmland and other areas. anything significant seen or found as far as you know? >> not that i'm aware of. wolf, i was out this morning with the guys early this morning at the national guard armory when they were rolling out. most of them in teams of four. they were walking the roadsides, looking in the ditches, going through the dense wooded areas up and down the hills. i asked mark eggeman, the director of operations there, i asked him why is it that this search hasn't been opened up to the thousands of people who would come from around the country to help look for hannah? he said, this is, at this point, still a law enforcement operation. because at any moment, we think we could come across a crime scene. there are concerns of evidence that we have to protect and so that's why it's still these few dozens of men and women who a

joining me is don lemon, jeffrey tuben, john gaskin and tom fuentes. the ground in st. louis. there were so many protesters in the streets of ferguson last night. there were seven people arrested, a lot of police were assaulted by rocks and bottles. is this a situation getting out of control? >> well, you know, with the leaks, people are very, very agitated. they see it as egregious, unethical, and obviously orchestrated. so you've got a community that already does not trust law enforcement, that was told from the beginning that this process would be highly confidential until the end of the investigation. now you have leaks that appear to be coming out every day. you have a community that is very, very upset about it, and really wants answers as to who in the prosecutor's office or who from the justice department is leaking this critical information? >> and that's the question right, jeff, where are these leaks coming from? you've got leaks coming out about forensics that paint a picture of the officer's story and his certain -- certainly his allegatio

and anderson cooper talked with law enforcement analyst tom fuentes and david collingwood who wrote ae columbine high school shooting on what may have been going through his mind. >> when family hear he was popular, when people hear he was on a football team and he was well liked that surprises a lot of people but you say it shouldn't. >> not really. i heard a congressman from the area talking this kid did not fit the stereotype. most school shooters don't fit the stereotype. the stereotype is wrong, there's no correct profile so there's none that fits. there are a lot in common. almost always boys. 98% of the time they've suffered some sort of failure or loss. and most of them -- has been deeply depressed. >> it's still too early, frankly, to know a lot of the conclusions that are drawn early on. and just like in columbine turn out to be completely wrong. a lot of the eyewitness story turns out incorrect. the authorities say the shooter acted alone. is this priority just piecing together the motivation for why they did this? >> yeah, i think so. the problem is you may never know the

cnn global affairs analyst and managing editor, bobby gauche and former fbi assistant director, tom fuentesto both of you. >> good morning, carol. >> good morning, thanks for being here. tom, i will start with you. how do you determine which tips are credible? >> i think you have to just check them out really. and in some it might be obvious by the caller who calls in, but you know, even -- even tips that come in that sometimes might seem crazy turn out to be real. so, really, the fbi and the police have to check out practically every single thing -- tip that comes in. >> it still seems like such a difficult task, bobby to try to identify this guy, who is wearing a mask, so you talked about triangulation in the break. explain. >> well, as tom well knows, it's a question of figuring out -- the fbi having seen that video will have come to some conclusions about this guy. they will have a good sense of his height, his weight, his skin tone, they will have a close look of his eyes, somebody is calling in and says, oh, that's tom smith and i went to high school with him and 6'2" and 200 pounds,

our law enforcement analyst, former fbi assistant director tom fuentes is joining us by phone right now. i don't know if the u.s. has a closer ally than canada. i assume that the u.s. is working really close with canada to try to figure out what happened, tom. >> that's right. the u.s. has a very close relationship with the canadians, the fbi in particular has three offices in canada. the main office in the u.s. embassy in on the embassy in ottawa has worked closely on many cases. and a self-radicalized individual was going to, you know, have bombs set off in downtown toronto and would have killed hundreds of people and the rcmp, the canadian intelligence service, the toronto police as well as the fbi worked closely in that case with the u.s. connections, also, with some of the individuals. so in their parliament building, it is a first and we'll have to wait and see. is it a copycat because the person who ran through the white house front door a couple of weeks ago, is it a copycat because somebody killed a canadian soldier driving his car over a soldier two days ago? that will all rem

let's talk about this with evan perez and tom fuentes.entlemen, as we discuss, we don't want to give this kid's name too much attention. we've identified him. we should generally try to refer to him as the shooter now. what is the fbi doing as they help the local law enforcement? to eliminate the idea there might be other shooters? >> that, too. but the local police are in charge of this. and the other agencies that respond are in general for mutual aid. hundreds of interviews need to be done. that will take a number of officers and agents. the faster they can do that, the better, the quicker to put together the picture of why this happened. but there might be specialized investigative assistance needed. t crime scene investigation, tracing of the weapon that atf would be doing along with the fbi. really, they just need as much help as they can get in a situation like this. if you have a suburban or small town, independent town that's not part of seattle, they're not going to have that many officers. there's 100 or more interviews, not to

joining me here in "the situation room" is tom fuentes, a former assistant director of the fbi. have investigative journalist coy barefoot joining us from charlottesville. i want to point out, tom, these are -- all of these dots represent cases where women were either murdered or sexually assaulted and the cases were never solved. this is morgan harrington, disappeared in october of 2009. authorities have linked dna evidence to jesse matthew. you also have this case, this woman who survived but she was abducted and sexually assaulted in 2005. this was in fairfax city not far from washington, d.c. and the dna linked to that found on morgan harrington. you'll also see other ones, for instance here in lynchburg. cassandra morton, 23 years old, october of 2009. very close in time to when morgan harrington disappeared and her body was discovered, as well. these other cases, newport news, these were investigations of matthew when he was in college. so you're looking at all these dots. what does this tell you, tom? >> it tells me that the police want to be extremely diligent in reopenin

i want to bring in tom fuentes, former assistant director of the fbi. ved in searches like this before. and i -- curious, it's been a very difficult one. they do have a suspect, however. what does this tell you about holding a press conference now, particularly after an area has been taped off, an area of interest in that very large search area? what do you read into this now? >> well, i would read into it, jim, that they're pretty convinced they have found the body. and it's a significant development. i think it's the only explanation at this point of -- especially if they are talking about calling off searches tomorrow and have cordoned off an area for further examination. >> well, it's a sad moment for a family that's been missing their daughter for a month now. i would like to remind our viewers, there is a suspect in this case who has already been charged, in fact, with the abduction of hannah graham. but not with anything further, not with her death. but there is someone that was seen with her on surveillance video, the night she disappeared. that

let's bring in tom fuentes. we don't know the details of the video, we don't know its contents.ow that very often when some of these jihadists come out on a suicide mission, they do record a video in advance. >> right. essentially it's an electronic manifesto of putting out why he wanted to do what he did. >> they also say they're looking to try to find not just the motive but the money, as much as they can to make sure that he wasn't simply an individual inspired by a terror organization, but he didn't necessarily have any direct logistical contacts with others. >> right. that effort goes on every day by the canadian authorities, the u.s. authorities, our allies around the world to determine terrorists transmitting, and as we know, isis has a huge piggyback of money from the oil they sell illegally to the banks that they've overtaken in mosul. they actually pay a salary to the jihadists that show up and give them money each month for fighting. they have an enormous amount of money. the difficulty would be to transmit it around the world to support terrorism. >> they have hundre

as jim is breaking this news, i want to bring in our law enforcement analyst tom fuentes. and phil mud also joining me and former jihadist, monthman sheikh. and now that we have this horrible development, after what jim is reporting, this hatchet attack on two new york city police officers and now looking at this individual's facebook page and are seeing links to extremists possibly and in arabic. >> well, if an individual, erin, wants to attack the united states or the government, the most visible symbol of the government is a police officer in uniform or a military officer in uniform. and that is what we have here. we are soldiers in canada and here in new york city you have, in fact, four uniformed police officers that this individual attacked. and i understand one is in surgery and critical that was hit in the head with that hatchet. >> yes. >> so this is a serious attack. and more will be found out about it. >> so let me ask you moman, to give people color, you were someone like this and you had a change of heart and became someone who has dedicated your life to fight

i want to bring in cnn's analyst tom fuentes. what is your take, especially with the security, at the parliament building, tom? >> i think it's going to be the same issue there as we have here at the white house. how does somebody get through the front door and in this case, somebody armed with a rifle. i think it's pretty clear that this was a soldier that was shot, targeted on purpose but then you have the secondary entry by one or more people unopposed at the door and that's extremely problematic. at this point it's too soon to know if it was, you know, an attack by more than one person, what the background is of the person, do we have a deranged shooter, a jihadist. we'll learn that in the next hours or days. but for the moment, it's very problematic and the fact that it's still an ongoing shooting situation is indicative of the lack of security at the front door. >> and it's quite frightening, as we see those images, police officers pointing their rifles, their guns at the top of a building there. we were just hearing from ot

also our law enforcement analyst, tom fuentes, a former assistant director of the fbi.re have been new developments that you've been looking into. what are you hearing? >> wolf, the search team has looked at that eight-mile radius around the city of charlottesville, that really critical zone where the profilers say this is the most likely place to find hannah. the search team is in standown right now today and tomorrow. beginning later this week, they will enter a second phase of the search. they will conduct pointed specific areas to go back and look at a little more in depth. i asked mark eggeman why we haven't seen dive teams. there's ponds and lakes throughout the area, and he told me we had such clear weather in the first few days of the search and the helicopters were above all of those areas of water looking down. he said you would be surprised, you can see the entire bodies of water from above on a clear day with no wind. he said, we didn't see anything that would merit a dive search. but we don't rule that out in the future. >> so it's exactly one month since s
