Nancy cordes is on capitol hill where a Key Senate Republican is accused of going too far. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning to you and our viewers in the west. Those veterans groups are not holding back accusing the senator of quote, a monumental cheap shot and disgusting ambushstyle politics after he publicly questioned their motives. It was a coordinated assault from three of the nations top veterans groups. You clearly represent the worst of politics in this country, wrote the paralyzed veterans of america. Your allegations are ugly and meanspirited in every sense of the words, wrote the vfw. Their fury stemmed from an open letter to veterans North Carolina senator richard burr released on friday the start of memorial day weekend. In it he argued that groups like theirs were more interested in defending the status quo within va than in protecting the veterans they represent. What weve got is weve got a situation where nobody is looking at the realities. Reporter burr was angry that at a recent hearing about alleged secret waiting lists and delays at the va only one veterans group, the american legion, called for the resignation of va secretary eric shinseki. The rest pledged their support. Secretary shinseki is dedicated to americas veterans more than ever. We fully stand behind secretary shinseki. Reporter burr says he stands by his criticism of those groups despite the heat hes getting now, telling cbs news the reaction seems to prove my point. They are far more outraged by my words than they have been thus far by any of the unfolding va scandal or secretary shinsekis mismanagement of the agency. It became personal because of the timing of the letter. Reporter sherman gilums jr. Says burrs letter struck a nerve. Were used to the politics. What were not used to is for someone to define our motivations and reflect to the public in this sort of passiveaggressive way. Hes writing the veterans but hes talking about veterans. Were all veterans at the end of the day. Reporter senator burr argues these groups are simply trying to curry favor with the vas top brass. They say its naive to think that replacing one secretary will fix the problems at the va which they argue, anthony has been underfunded for years by congress. Nancy, thanks. President obama acknowledged the Veterans Hospital scandal as he honored the nations fallen heroes. The president laid a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier during a Memorial Day Ceremony at Arlington National cemetery. He said the va controversy must be resolved. As weve been reminded in recent days we must do more to keep faith with our veterans and their families and ensure that they get the care and benefits and opportunities that they have earned and that they deserve. These americans have done their duty. They ask nothing more than that our country does ours now and for decades to come. The president assigned deputy chief of staff rob nabors to lead the white house investigation. The head of nigerias armed forces says this morning that he knows where an islamist terror group is Holding Hundreds of kidnapped school girls, but he also warns a rescue attempt could get the hostages killed. As debora patta reports, officials are trying to defend their efforts against boko haram. Reporter good morning. The Nigerian Military has come under Harsh Criticism for its failure to rescue the over 200 girls. Its been six weeks now since they were kidnapped from their school where they were preparing to write their final exams. Speaking off the cuff the countrys chief of defense alex badeh told a crowd of demonstrators gathered to support the beleaguered military that they had located the girls. The good news is for the girls is we know where they are but cannot tell you. We cannot tell you. Just leave us alone, we are working. We will get the girls back. Reporter but he warned that the use of force was a risk to the girls lives. So nobody should come and say the Nigerian Military does not know what it is doing. We know what we are doing. We cant go and kill our girls in the effort to get them back. Reporter boko haram has stepped up its campaign of violence since the abductions. In this past week alone, at least 200 people have been killed. In an interview last week charlie rose asked defense secretary chuck hagel if the u. S. Would go and get the girls once their location had been established. We would go get them . We would do everything we could, as president obama has said, to facilitate helping the nigerians, as we are helping them locate them and then figuring out whats the quickest easiest, fastest way, lowest risk to get them out. Reporter if the Nigerian Military rules are forced then the only real option left is negotiations. But a source close to the secret talks between government and boko haram has told cbs news that there was a deal reached over the weekend to swap the girls for boko haram prisoners, but that this was stopped at the last minute by president goodluck jonathan. For cbs this morning. Im debora patta, in capetown south africa. This morning a major figure in the computer Hacking Group anonymous faces the possibility of spending more than 25 years in prison.

Monsegur helped bring down the most wanted cyber criminal target and disrupted 300 Cyber Attacks. Tim stevens is here. Good morning. Good morning. This is a really big story many people have not heard about. How helpful was he to the fbi . Incredibly helpful. He was arrested in 2011 and the next day helped identify some of the major hackers they wanted to bring down. He had two foster children he wanted to protect and the fbi said we have enough to put you in jail today and he wanted to protect them so he immediately helped to bring in some of the cofounders of a Hacking Group that he helped cofound. So hes a Founding Member of this Antigovernment Group and he goes a day later working for the government . He was still tweeting online about how much he hated the government and how much he hated the fbi while he was actively working for the fbi. Engaging online chats and helping to get more information about these hackers that they wanted to bring down. What was this group really all about . They said they were doing it for fun but they did get Strong Political leanings toward the end, attacking the fbi and cia, they attacked the senate website. They also attacked fox. Com because of x factor and fun stuff like that. They also sent an email to the British Health society telling them they had a security vulnerability and telling them how to fix it. Saying we dont want to attack you, we just want to help. The government is now saying his help has helped them disrupt as many as 300 Cyber Attacks . He was very helpful in bringing people to justice and preventing hacks and helping to fix websites and fix Government Agencies to prevent other hacks. Hes been very helpful and theyre trying to make the case he deserves a light sentence. What the government needs is someone to help with this expertise and inside knowledge. There are plenty of hackers out there who were accused and spent time in jail and are now helping the government and other agencies be more secure. These are the guys who know these systems the best and they know the best way to secure them. Tim stevens, thank you so much. Thank you. Its 7 19.
