Secret Services Ability to protect the president. They come after the stunning revelation that a fence jumper made it all the way to the east room before being subdued. Nbcs Kristen Welker has the latest on this. Kristen, good morning to you. Matt, good morning to you. Secret Service DirectorJulia Pierson will face a barrage of questions on capitol hill today, including why were learning this morning that Omar Gonzalez, who had a knife, made it much farther in the white house than previously disclosed. The first family wasnt home when that chaos unfolded here. Still, this all raises questions about that storied agency. Shocking revelations about this unprecedented security breach. U. S. Officials said suspect Omar Gonzalez got much deeper inside the white house than initially thought, making it all the way to the iconic east room, the site of president ial press conferences and other major events. I think everyones concern is if one person can do it, what if five tried to do it . What if ten tried to do it . Reporter once gonzalez entered the unlocked front door of the executive mansion, he pushed past a guard, ran past stairs and ran to the east room, the entire length of the white house to the other end of that room before he was tackled by a heavily armed agent to the door of the green room. Two different turns he could easily have been in the white house residence. An alarm had been muted. They believe the reason it was muted is because the white house staff asked for it. Reporter the details first reported follow another report by the post revealing after a 2011 shooting, it took the secret service four days to realize the bullets had hit the first familys residence and five days to make an arrest. Secret Service DirectorJulia Pierson will be in the hot seat on capitol hill today. President obama appointed her in 2013, tasking her with retooling the agency after several agents were fired for soliciting prostitutes during an official trip in columbia. Some lawmakers say this latest breach is a threat to national security. Its clear that something needs to be done and something needs to be done drastically. Reporter now neither the white house nor the secret service are commenting about the revelations this morning. The secret service defends its handling of the 2011 shooting saying the suspect in that case is currently serving a 25year prison sentence. The hearing this morning is expected to focus on all of the recent security breaches. Tamron tamron, matt, back to you. Kristen welker, thank you very much. Major developments tied to the disappearance of student Hannah Graham. Police say the suspect being held in that case has been linked by forensic evidence to the unsolved 2009 death of morgan harrington, another young woman who vanished in charlottesville. Well talk with her parents exclusively in a moment. Gabe gutierrez has the latest on the investigation. Gabe, good morning. Reporter tamron, good morning. Police arent saying exactly what that new evidence is. But the break in the case comes after investigators searched the suspects car and his apartment and submitted dna samples to the crime lab. This morning, the investigation into 32yearold Jesse Matthews past is widening days after he was arrested in texas and flown back to virginia. State police now say his arrest and new forensic evidence provide a significant break in an unsolved rape and murder. Morgan harrington disappeared in 2009 after leaving a concert also here in charlottesville. She was found dead in a field three months later. Her parents have been helping volunteers search for Hannah Graham, this latest news still sinking in. It doesnt change a lot for us, in some ways. You know, our bedroom is still empty upstairs. Were still not going to have the grandchildren, the wedding, those things. Reporter when harringtons body was found, dna recovered in that case was also linked to an unsolved 2005 Sexual Assault 100 miles away in fairfax, virginia. Any new lead that is come about the fbi then rereleased in searching for harringtons killer. Whether matthew murdered harrington, residents are stunned. It does look similar to him. Reporter matthew has not been charged in connection with those two other crimes and his supporters caution a rush to judgment. Innocent until proven guilty. Reporter matthew is charged with intent to defile in the graham case, seen with the uva sophomore on this Surveillance Video just before she vanished more than two weeks ago. Hopefully they do get answers as to where exactly hannah is. Reporter a bail hearing for matthew is scheduled thursday. He has not entered a plea and, matt, his attorney has not commented on any possible links to other crimes. Gabe gutierrez, thank you very much. Morgan harringtons parents are with us now exclusively. Mr. And mrs. Harrington, nice to see you. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning, matt. Even as you have been praying for the graham family the last 17 days youve been dealing with your own pain. Jill, you went to charlottesville and hung a sign that said find hannah. Why was it so important for you to be part of that effort . Weve experienced firsthand just the anguish of having a child missing and we both feel that that period of time was more difficult for us than actually knowing morgan was dead. So, we have a response, we are desperate to find Hannah Graham so her family has some answers and we really want to keep the community aware. Ask people for any tips or information, physical searches as well as right. The new awareness in morgans case. If anyone has any information that might be useful to Law Enforcement, we are also asking for that. When you heard about the Hannah Graham case, did you immediately stop and think perhaps there is a connection to the murder of morgan . No. I thought it seemed very similar to morgaorgans situation. So the question of her being maybe somewhat impaired and someone just picking her up and trying to take care of her. But it really came to light to me about two weeks ago when i saw a picture of the sketch as compared to jesse compared to dreadlocks and weight gain. And at that time i said oh, my gosh, i think its the same person. Was his a name you heard before during the search for your daughter . And have police shared anything more . They said theres a forensic link between these two cases. Have they shared anything with you that they havent shared publicly . No, they havent. Virginia state police is notoriously and consistently closed mouth. They hold information very tight. And i understand their reason for it. Its been frustrating for us at times because we do want to know. But hopefully now that mr. Matthew is back in custody, they have him and theyll have plenty of time to unravel kind of this snarl of information thats around him. I would like to appeal to him, to please give the family information where hannah is. We need to find Hannah Graham. Its vital. Mr. Harrington, in closing, obviously there is a certain tragic irony here that it may take the disappearance of another young lady to help you get answers in the murder of your own daughter. Well, and weve worked over the last five years to raise awareness, to help save the next girl the need for safety and watching out for others as well as personal responsibility and it is sad. And were sad that this has happened. And perhaps this is now a way for us to not have future events like this occur in central virginia. Dan and jill harrington, mr. And mrs. Harrington, thank you for your time this morning. Thank you. Thank you. God bless. There is more fallout this morning from that fire at a chicago area air traffic facility that led to the cancellation of thousands of flights. In the wake of the incident, the head of the faa is now ordering a full security review. Nbcs Kevin Tibbles is at ohare this morning. Good morning. Reporter some are saying this act of sabotage is the biggest against the faa since 9 11 and theyre asking how it could have happened. This is what it used to look like inside chicago center, one of the most vital air Traffic Control hubs. Now empty, decimated by an act of sabotage to its computer system. Most catastrophic event ive ever seen. This is synonymous with taking a drone and bombing the whole place out. Reporter today, five days later, many travel plans still in disarray. I want to go home. Reporter it will take at least two weeks to essentially rebuild chicagos center from the ground up. Visualize 29 racks of computer equipment. Thats what this system entails. 20 of these need to be replaced. Reporter suspect brian howard, a 36yearold contract employee, appeared in court monday. The criminal complaint against howard points to a Facebook Post in which Authorities Say he said, quote, leaving you with a big mess. The faa chief told nbcs tom costello the agency is beefing up security nationwide. Weve increased the patrols and number of personnel we have focused on security at all of our air traffic facilities. Reporter with more than 4,000 flights already canceled, some question why more security or supervision wasnt already in place. Definitely a big wakeup call. We had one person on their lonesome doing work on very sensitive equipment. Reporter as for stranded travelers insurance is not going to cover it. Theyre not going to cover it, so we have to pick up all the expenses. Reporter many have had to spend hundreds of dollars and waste hours, if not days, simply trying to get to their destinations. And the Global Business travel Association Estimates the cost of just one missed or canceled flight per passenger is about 1,400 in lost productivity and expenses. Just imagine the cost of 4,000 packed flights that have all been canceled. It will be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Guys, back to you. Thank you very much.

Theres the moment everybody is talking about, the chiefs safety right there. He has a pick six on tom brady. You saw him celebrate there. What hes doing is actually praying. He had a 15 yard penalty for that right there. The nfl rules say that players are prohibited from engaging in celebration. People are all over this, saying that its because hes a muslim. Brandon marshal gets on hands and raises hands to jesus. Tim tebow gets a trademark, husain gets a 15 yard penalty. Tweets are going crazy. Nice to see people recognizing the absurdity. At the end of the game, they talked to him about this play. He didnt take any of the religious part of it to task. He said its probably because he was excited and just slid. Anyway, this moment had a lot of people talking. That seems to be a little bit of a contradiction there. You see the other pictures of people praising and thanking the person they believe in. Im just upset that the patriots lost. Lets go back to the real story. Carson, thank you very much. College football coach under fire for his handling of a possible concussion during a game.
