And delta 1086 laguardia tower winds zero three zero at niner. Runway 13 cleared to land. Braking action is pretty good by an air bus. Reporter the quest to did the planes speed, brakes or thrust reversers play a role as it stopped just inches from the water. Its up to each airport to decide when to close runways due to weather.

Reporter today, my plane came in over that same icefilled flushing bay. The city right on the water laguardias runways mean pilots must be at their best when they come in for a landing, especially if that water is splashing onto an icy runway. Being about 7,000 feet long on both runways is a place you want to put the airplane on the ground very definitely firmly. Reporter sitting in a window seat watching the crash unfold before her eyes passenger jamie sullivan. And then i saw the rocks. And then i saw the water.

Attorney general eric holder said the Justice Department would use its full authority to reform the Ferguson Missouri Police department which could mean dismantling it entirely. This after a blistering report alleged a pattern of racial bias among ferguson authorities. So far two officials have resigned in the wake of that report. A third was fired. But as ron allen reports the problems may extend far beyond ferguson. Reporter now backed by the findings of a scathing federal investigation renewed demands for a complete overhaul of fergusons police force. Who killed mike brown reporter ferguson now among more than 20 Police Departments the Obama Administration has investigated for allegedly racist practices. From albuquerque to cleveland to newark most agree to legally binding reform plans, Consent Decrees. The Justice Department has sued at least four jurisdictions that have resisted. Analysts say constant oversight is essential. Where the government has simply entered into an agreement and been basically walked away i think weve seen that doesnt work. Reporter but even in cities like new orleans, nearly three years under a Consent Decree critics say police still use excessive force, making illegal stops, searches and other misconduct. With more people watching you know i could only hope that its going to get better. But im still skeptical. Because the problems have been here for a very very long time. Reporter ferguson population just over 20,000 is one of the smallest towns doj has investigated. And here with both the police and the courts under scrutiny many worry about the towns future.

A federal grand jury could bring charges against a Prominent Senate democrat later this month according to sources familiar with the case. New jersey senator bob menendez is the center of a corruption investigation after jet trips he took on a private plane. Prosecutors want to know if he exchanged political favors in return. Both the senator and doctor deny any wrongdoing. At the start of this newscast we told you about two very close calls involving airplanes. Already we know a lot more about what happened to those planes than what happened to Malaysia Airlines flight 370 which almost exactly a year ago vanished cloaked in mystery and suspicion. And while searchers hold out hope the plane will be found, for the families of the missing theyre only memories and unanswered questions. I still remember just grabbing his hand saying be safe see you later. And give him a hug. Its burned in my mind. Reporter james wood recalling the last time he saw his big brother philip. It was just a week before philip and 238 others boarded Malaysia Flight 370 from kuala lumpur to beijing. At that point im just imagining youre thinking this is going to be bad news and were going to get confirmation. Something, yeah. Yeah. Or either messed up turned around lost track of it. Reporter the plane didnt crash somewhere along its planned route. Instead it appeared it was flown into oblivion. That was the last message from mh370, 41 minutes into the flight the mystery began. But now im going to turn to the left. Reporter in a 777 simulator we duplicated the sharp left turn that came next sending mh370 on a mystifying journey, ultimately towards the indian ocean. Is there anything that would make this plane make that kind of turn absent a human either pushing buttons on this computer or dialing in the autopilot . No. No. Reporter adding to the intrigue the planes transponder and other Communications Systems was disabled. Its really whats been described as the hook turn. Thats where this event really started to develop from a normal routine flight to what has been deemed either an accident or an intentional act. Reporter early focus turned to the captain. Authorities wondered if he was using his home Flight Simulator to practice the vanishing act. A friend tells nbc news he doesnt buy it. He would be the one trying to save the plane. Reporter while there theories as to what happened on board the plane, search vessels may be on track to finding it. After crunching satellite signals and aircraft performance data experts believe it crashed within a 23,000 square mile arc along the south indian ocean. Very high degree of certainty, but not absolute certainty, we know the aircraft is going to be. Reporter in the meantime absent the discovery of any wreckage james wood has not let his brother go. Just tell me about your brother. The kind of guy he is. Hes he was, he is kind generous. Youre obviously struggling with present tense, past tense. Where are you on this . Both. Logically i say past tense. But my heart still says present tense. The painful wait goes on for the families. In january malaysian authorities declared it an accident and declared the passengs and crew dead but offered no positive proof. Meantime australian officials expect to end their current search operation in may. A busy night of news still ahead including our nbc news investigation.

Were back now with an nbc news investigation. With growing demand for cosmetic procedures in this country, more and more doctors, even dentists are learning how to do them. But the concern here is they may not be getting enough training to do them safely. And patients may not know. We get more on this tonight from our Senior Investigative correspondent cynthia mcfadden. Reporter 57yearold stephanie gelzer was a new grandmother. Like a lot of women she decided to get a little botox. She went to the silhouette med spa in livermore, california. I wanted to just spruce up a little bit. Reporter while she was there the staff encouraged her to try other services as well. I did have a little spot in my cheek. Reporter a little teeny red bump. Yeah it was pretty small. Reporter dr. Tam wen is one of the owners of the spa. He said he could fix the spot and get rid of two veins on her temple. He said ill do all three for 200. Reporter what she didnt understand was that dr. Wen is a Family Practice doctor not a licensed dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Hes one of an increasing number of family practitioners, gynecologists, even dentists taking weekend courses similar to this one to expand their practices to include cosmetic procedures. Why . Some say its about the money. You can triple your revenue per patient per year. Reporter but sometimes according to dermatologists a handful of weekend courses just isnt enough. This is what stephanies face looked like ten days after the procedure. It was a traumatic experience. Reporter your face was a mess. Yeah for three weeks i didnt leave the house. Reporter dr. Wens office agreed to refer her to a dermatologist, dr. Jerome. He examined stephanie and says dr. Wen should never have injected her face with the chemical he used. This procedures used most commonly for leg bands. Reporter he says the side effects for injecting the face with this chemical can be severe including even blindness. This requires de by the experts of the experts. Reporter and that wasnt dr. Wen. Dr. Wen told us hed been to six workshops or conferences that ran from two to four days long and participated in two other oneday laser courses. Be careful with that prescription. Reporter he agreed to meet with us at his spa. So what happened . What went wrong . So my best estimate is that agent got outside of the lesion. Reporter it seems to me it would be clearly a mistake. Doesnt mean that its a mistake. Reporter so you stand behind the work . I do standby that. Reporter and you think that the seminars that youve attended provide enough training to be able to do these really tricky procedures on peoples faces . So its the same training that even dermatologists get after they graduate. Reporter thats misleading says this doctor. After graduating from medical school dermatologists have three years of intense training to treat the skin. You dont learn this in a weekend. Reporter as for stephanie, the scar on her face is almost gone. But the emotional scars she says remain. Dont do what i did. Be smart. Do your homework. Check out exactly whats being shoved into your face. Reporter and who is doing it. Now, dr. Wen told me hes not doing it for the money but rather to help people and that the dermatologists are just upset that he and others like him are taking patients away from their business. Now, the bottom line dr. Wen is doing nothing illegal. But critics say he is misleading patients and putting them at risk. Its important. Thank you very much cynthia mcfadden.
