Lets bring in steve palmer. Former assistant deathy and counterterrorism chiefty fbi. What needs to be done that eggs not being done . Well, more. More needs to be done. More what . To borrow a phrase, its not rocket science. More what . More intelligence gathering more information sharing. A sharper focus on the activities of the people involved in this from the major organizes down to smaller independent operators, just a sharper focus better sharing and more aggressive effort. Thats what needs to be done, shep. Its not rocket science. Theyve already started talking a little bit about the idea of a sort of patriot act for france and for europe in general, and its being met with a great deal of resistance and theyre not for it at all. Look what the former Prime Minister there from 2005 to 2007, he said there that the spiral of suspicion created in the United States by the patriot act and the enduring legitimatization of torture or illegal detention has caused that country,ing the United States to lose its moral compass. That it dont think were doing things well. Certainly having greater success than they are and there are any number of reasons but part of it is the kind of effort we have made since 9 11 to make ourselves more secure, and we have accomplished that. Thats not to say were out of the woods and not to say we wont have these incidents. We have certainly done better than they have and the events playing out there clearly demonstrate that. We havent had anything major here, thank inness.

They have democratic societies we have a Democratic Society and you certainly want to maintain that. Thats not to its not either or. Theres a balance that needs to be reached, and were trying to reach that balance here in this country. Im sure theyll do the same. But if you give up aggressively trying to counter these people gaining intelligence and learning what theyre going to do before they do it, then you wind up with a situation like you have in paris and the situation like you have in belgium, and thats not where you want to be. The former assistant director of the fbi and the former chief of counterterrorism sir nice to see you, thank you so much. Yes, sir.

Martin luther king jr. Well, the modern day bonnie and clyde on whom we have been reporting reached the end of their travels over the weekend. The 18yearold man accused of going on a multistate crime spree with his 13yearold girlfriend told the judge in florida hell return to kentucky to face charges. Police arrested the teams yesterday in Panama City Beach after cops found them sleeping in a stolen truck. The teens disappeared from their homes in Grayson County kentucky, two weeks another. Cops believe the boyfriend and girlfriend made stops in South Carolina georgia, stealing trucks and writing bad chengs. The sheriff says the teens could face charges in multiple states. They were forging checks in each state. I dont think they realize when you forge a check in another state, they get charged in that state. So they could be facing charges in four different states. He says the boyfriend could also face charges of custodial interfering for taking the young girl away from heir family. She was 13. The girl facing charges of her own in juvenile court. Unanimous young joins us now and is live, criminal defense attorney. Children should not do such things. You shouldnt steal cars and write bad checks and run away from mommy when your 13 years old, but in the grand scheme of things, how much trouble could these two really be in . Nobody got hurt. Thats right, and in fact the Defense Attorneys are likely going to make that argument. These are lower level felonies no one was injured or hurt or cops shot at. The defense attorney will be looking at mitigating factors how serious with the crimes. On the flipside the prosecution will argue that dalton hayes, the 18yearold took the 13yearold, and his criminal behavior was escalating from going on a multistate crime spree of burglarizing houses taking cars, and all of those things are really going to rise to the level of we need to make an example out of him. So its going to be interesting how this pan out. Theres been questions whether he knew how old she was. If he did know, then he is deal waiving 13yearold child here, does that complicate the mess for him . It could. This is the thing inch most jurisdictions you dont have the mistake of age defense inch at the state of kentucky you do. So he could technically argue, well, didnt know she was 13. I south she was 19, and thats going to be dependent upon what she says, what he says, how they met, and all those different factors in terms of figuring out the totality of the circumstances. They call each other boyfriend and girlfriend. If he had some sort of sexual relations with her theres another set of problems, isnt there . Absolutely. He could be potentially looking at statutory rape. So instead of just looking at lower level felonies of theft related crimes he could be looking at statutory rape if they had sexual relations and if he is looking at statutory rape then he is looking at a possible lifetime registration as a sexual offender. So, he is looking at a whole slew o problems in adult accurate where she will be looking at juvenile court, where its about rehabilitation as opposed to punishment. This case got a lot of attention. Are you surprised that they found hem in a truck in Charlie Hebdo<\/a> could still be on the run. And officials across europe are warning there could be even more sleeper cells out there waiting to strike. So, with all of that now the top Homeland Security<\/a> leader in Congress Says<\/a> the United States<\/a> could also be at risk. Catherine herridge is live in washington.

Fox news can now confirm the purpose of the tracking was to gain insight into north Koreas Nuclear<\/a> program. The spokesman for the director of National Intelligence<\/a> told fox news today that the u. S. Intelligence community has been tracking north korean intrusions and fishing attacks on a routine basis. For more, lets bring in david sanger the National Security<\/a> correspondent for the New York Times<\/a> and helped break the story. Fascinating to see how it was that they did they had to go through china. Can you explain that to in the viewers . Well, shepard, north korea does not have a whole lot of Internet Connections<\/a> to the world. They only have 1,024 registered i. P. Addresses internet addresses. Where you are in new york there are probably more than a thousand on every block that you walk past. So one thing they did was go in through the chinese connection, about if you take a look carefully at some of the snowden documents, the documents leaked by Edward Snowden<\/a> and quickly some that were publish over the weekend by the german magazine, youll discover there was an operation to get into north korea through south korea has early as november 20. It had been a hard target for the United States<\/a> for some years. Does your regarding give us an idea of why if we were in their systems, our government wasnt aware to inform sony of what was going down . Theres no question we spent a lot of time on with our sources, very good question. The answer is, once youre in these systems you may be able to see things like a spear phishing attack that like an email that may be from a friend but dont click on it because it will put malware in thunder system. Day were doing spear phishing attacks on sony and others, and seemed this was fairly routine stuff. Nobody in the Intelligence Community<\/a> put together that with the threats that north korea had issued about sony and about the movie, the interview that crude comment about an assassination plot against kim jongun. North koreas leader. Had they done so they might have thought the spear phishing might be a little more serious and had a greater intent. They didnt see the destructtive software which made the think different and destroyed computers at sony, until that happened on november 24th. After reading your report, i was wondering if theres been a reaction from china. Part of this is we went through china to get to north korea, and were not supposed to do that either. Well, the chinese know that the nsa is deeply into china. You may recall a piece that we ran just about a year ago right now about also based on snowden documents, about the u. S. Effort to get at not only the north korean leadership compounds but a company that makes a lot of chinese servers. Going to be news to the chinese that the u. S. Is all over their networks. Just as the chinese are all over ours. Can the North Koreans<\/a> now block us or do we still have a look there to watch lil kim. The fact of the matter is once the software is in their systems they have to fine it. Im sure they were looking for it but they were looking for it before the story. We broke the story self years ago several years ago about the worm and operational Olympic Games<\/a> and im sure after the North Koreans<\/a> saw what the United States<\/a> and israel were doing to iran they must have thought they were on the list. David sanger, a reporter on this story. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Thank you shepard. Irans foreign minister has accused israel of committing state terrorism by launching an airstrike in syria that killed an iranian general. The militant Group Hezbollah<\/a> reports the airstrike killed six of its fighted israel neither confirmed or denied the attack thats part of a pattern. Never confirms or denies. Iran is a major supporter of hezbollah, which is based in lebanon. The group has been battling alongside syrias president bash shall alassad in that countries civil war for years.

Secret Service Agents<\/a> have ramped up security around vicepresident joe bidens home in delware after somebody fired off shots from a vehicle speeding outside his property. Happened on saturday night in wilmington. Cops say the vicepresident and his wife were nowhere near there.

The cops now say they dont think the driver was involved in the shooting. Were live in wilmington near the vicepresident s home. There is more to this or just a weird thing . Reporter shep, right now it feels like things are getting back to normal here. This is back to being a quiet neighborhood barley mill road the vicepresident s street is back to just being long and winding and unremarkable except for the secret Service Guard<\/a> outpost just a few hundred yards hen me and thats the same guard shack on saturday night where agents say they heard multiple gunshots and saw a car racing away for parts unknown. When it went down a perimeter was set up, the street was closed, mean something residents couldnt get to their kids at movie theaters and things like that. But the road opened up at midnight yesterday and today no sign of the chaos of saturday night and sunday morning while the vicepresident and dr. Biden were out to dinner. Have the firth what it was about. The secret service would not confirm to us. Base cliff they say they dont know if the shots were fired in the direction of the biden house or not. And that is on the top of the list of things we do not know. Still no word on suspects no word on what kind of car somebody was driving no lead no evidence, and standing here you get a sense the priority of Law Enforcement<\/a> i just protecting the biden property and keeping curious people away. We have not seen much Police Activity<\/a> away from the vps driveway. Nobody poking front lawns, looking for shell casings, havent heard anything bat weapon released to the media. Nothing gained from interviewing neighbors are residents say they heard between four and seven shots but none of those rounds have been recovered in any bidenowned buildings, and remember, the biden house where they live and sleep is actually set a few hundred yards back from the road. It is hidden by a thick tree and brush cover, and the vicepresident had a chance to talk about this is the morning during some remarks at a Martin Luther<\/a> king Day Breakfast<\/a> and he passed. We dont know what he thinks about all this. Some whacky person driving down the reed. Thank you, sir. The former korean air executive who held up a flight over macadamia nuts pleaded not get.
