S. , a mother seen driving her children into the Atlantic Ocean facing now attempted murder charges. Hear what she allegedly told her children during those terrifying moments and the revelations about her mental state. First up, the mysterious disappearance of flight 370 and new questions about the identities of two passengers on board. The boeing 777 vanished not long after taking off from kuala lumpur yesterday. It was headed to beijing with 239 people on board. Most of them chinese nationals. At least three americans are among the passengers. State immediamedia in vietnam aa say the jet has crashed. But ma lay shani authorities are not confirming that. Rescue crews from across the region are now searching an area from the South China Sea under darkness. Search helicopters and airplanes are also being deployed. This is new video from those operations. A vietnamese plane spotted traces of oil in the waters of that search area. Fi Officials Say the oil slicks are between six and nine miles long. We have correspondents and Analysts Covering this story from all angles. Tom fuentes in washington, jim clancy in kuala lumpur. Lets start with renee marsh, joining us by phone in washington. So, renee, there has been some confusion surrounding the identities of two of the passengers. Malaysia airlines saying there is an austrian passenger and italian passenger, but austria and italy are denying that because of the issue of passports, one stolen or lost. And possibly replaced. Explain to us whats going on here . Thats the big question that investigators have and its something that people are really zeroing in on here. If indeed those passports were lost and stolen, were they reported lost and stolen, authorities are saying they were, so the question now becomes how did someone get on board this Malaysia Airlines plane with these documents that should not have been valid. This is a question that investigators really want to get to the bottom of and so, how will they get to the bottom of this at this point . Because as i speak to you, this plane is still categorized as missing, so you know, i spoke with one expert. He says one of the major points of access or points of information for investigators is going to be going back to that airport. Theyre going to want to see Surveillance Video from these airports. Who went through that security line. Who got on this plane. Who was using that passport to get on to this flight if it was not indeed a valid passport. That will be a part of the investigation. We do know that from our correspondence here in the d. C. Bureau, our National Security correspondent, did reach out to the state department and the u. S. Officials, they are aware of this and they say that they are looking into this issue. But this, this investigation is going to be huge. Its not only about who are these two people who got on with alleged invalid passports, but theres so much more to this. Not only going to want to know who got on the plane, but what was on the plane. What kind of cargo was being carried in the belly of the plane. So, theyre going to want to want that cargo manifest. Was there undeclared Hazardous Material that may have caused an issue here . Theyre going to be working that angle while looking at the maintenance records of this plane as well, fred. This is investigation is going to be so complex. You just mentioneded off of the top, the search area, the rescue teams, theyre focused on over the walker right right now. Thats what will make this investigation so very complex because theyre search focus is over the sea. So much more complex that what we saw in the most recent triple seven disaster that happened. When you think about the geographic locates here, asiana was on land, not in a remote area. In a matter of hours, we saw investigators on the scene and collecting evidence. But in this incident, its still a big mystery. They havent even been able to locate the plane or the passenger at the hour, so, with the focus and if the focus truly turns out to be over water and if it turns out to be that kind of investigation, the tough task is going to be finding the wreckage. Theyre going to need sonar equipment. Just to locate where this wreckage was. The most important piece of evidence is going to be what people often call those black boxes. The data recorders. There is no telling how long that could take. When you look at air france, flikt 447, that went down in the atlantic. They did not find those recorders for nearly two years later. So that just goes to show you complex this possibly could be. So, the difference in se that air France Flight when the depths were very great, where as here in the South China Sea, if it did go down in the area that at least vietnamese authorities seem to believe right now, its much more shallow water. Detecting that ping in that plane might be a little bit easier. Is it your understanding that the reason why the ntsb would be involved in this because there are three americans on board . Or is it simply the interest of any airline that would go down in any part of the world that the ntsb would want to be part of the investigation . Right, so, we were in contact with the ntsb yesterday and their official comment is that theyre closely monitoring the situation. They havent said theyre officially participating in the investigation. That being said, we do believe that they will be participating in that investigation. Theres a few things that come into play here. The airplane, the boeing 777 is manufactured here in the United States. So, you know, the ntsb would want to know exactly what happened here if it had something to do with the plane, they would have an interest in learning what factors here were as far as this crash goes. Also, you know, i spoke to several experts who bring up a point in this region, they may not necessarily have the same kind of resources that the United States have when it comes to investigating this sort of crash. So, usually, what would happen is the bigger country with more money and more resources would step in to really be, take a really prominent role in this investigati investigation, so we expect although we havent heard, a team has been sent there, we expect the ntsb will be investigating in some way. All right. Thanks so much. Let me bring in tom because tom, still perplexing and very interesting and mysterious is the issue of two passengers who would be on the manifest with names that match an italian and austrian whose passports have been stolen or lost or missing for some time. So, apparently, at least with the italian, apparently, there have been some contact made to the person who has that italian name. Family members who say as far as they understand, that person is fine and actually traveling in another part of asia and that that passport was lost or stolen in malaysia last august and a new one had already been distributed to that passenger and were they able to freely travel now. So talk to me about the importance of if the names are on this manifesto and these people r were able to get on the plane with these names, tell me how concerning this is potentially to you. Well, thats just one aspect of many that are concerning. So many simultaneous absolutely aspects of the vest dwags are going to go forward, such as what caused the plane to come out of the sky and crash. If it did crash into the ocean, did the pilot fly it in on purpose . Did it have a catastrophic mechanical failure . Was it sabotaged . An explosion . Terrorism . That is a factor for the plane itself. But in terms of the passengers, the authorities of many coun countries, every country listed as having a citizen on that plane, will be working together to verify the identity of every single person. So, that means and the majority of the persons were more than 150 chinese citizens, so that will require a lot of work on the part of the chinese to verify each persons identity listed as being on the aircraft as well as all of the other passengers including the americans that were on that flight. So, identifying each person, identifying all the aspects concerning the aircraft are crucial. So far, no terrorist organization has risen up and taken credit thats been reported. It remains a very deep mystery concerning the people on the aircraft and the aircraft itself. Of course, finding the plane, finding out why it went down and then why the manifest would have names of people who dont necessarily match the identities of the passengers. Right. But they dont do one and wait until thats completed and then do the next one. This is all occurring simultaneously and its bringing to bear the resources of every country. In this situation that might have had someone on that aircraft including the United States, including china, malaysia. Who would be a directly involved in this. And their crash experts as well, so the ntsb because there are americans on that aircraft, they typically get invited by the country that owns the aircraft to say, please help us, you have the resources, experience and expertise, please come here and work on this crash with our authorities, yet the chinese probably doing the same thing. You have boeing itself wanting to know what happened to their aircraft. You have rollsroyce, who made the engines of that aircraft in united kingdom, they may want to participate and send their engineers. So this is going to be a multinational effort and its going to be an extensive investigation. All right, tom, thank you so much. Meantime, we just got new video in showing the vietnamese plane crew that spotted oil slicks in the South China Sea suspected to be coming from the missing asian airliner. Reports are that the slicks are between six and nine miles long. Cnns jim clancy is joining us from kuala lumpur. Are you hearing anything as to whether this plane simply went off radar one hour or two hours after take off or was there a different time frame thats being examined now . Well, i think thats the same time frame thats being examined right now. Very quickly that it seems to just disappear. And that has authorities here baffled, concerned, and of course, the families grief stricken. Were at Kuala Lumpur International airport. The families have been sequestered away from the media. They are awaiting word. Everyone is awaiting word. The ceo of Malaysia Airlines saying were not ruling anything out here as they look at this. Now, this oil slick that two of them that have been reported, that came from vietnamese search aircra aircraft. And they indicated they thought this might be typical for a plane like this one. So they were making the presumption, if you will, that this was linked to the crash, that this could be the crash site. Some 90 miles south of the Southern Coast of vietnam. That is a lead that is going to be obviously strongly pursued when daylight comes across this region in about five hours time. Theyll have more search planes up. Vessels out in in water. Theyre going to try to pinpoint where exactly the plane went down. They dont know that yet. Okay. And theyre at the airport. You mentioned there were a number of loved ones that are at a nearby location. What, if anything is being said by them about what theyre hearing from the airlines . What is this like for them . Nothing, you know. They are just completely smothered in grief. They have been left here for more than 24 hours. No word fwr their families. Obviously, hope is fading of finding this aircraft. They know that. They want some closure. They want some answers. That might help them to understand what has happened. Where their loved ones might be. What is the possibility they would even be able to recover their bodies. They dont have the answers to any of that and perhaps the question that baffles the most, the one theyre asking themselves, the most difficult one that may never been answered is why. All right. Jim clancy, thank you so much. Keep us posted. Making her First Court Appearance in the u. S. , the mother charged with attempted murder after driving her van into the ocean with her children inside.
