James Comey - In 2014, then-FBI director James Comey spoke toScott Pelley about his job and the political independence itrequired in order to effectively uphold the rule of law.The BinLaden Documents - Bin Laden documents reveal a loving,vengeful son who might take his father's role atop an al Qaedathat's stronger than ever, says ex-FBI agent. Personal lettersseized in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden reveal the alQaeda leader's son to be a young man who adores his father andwants to carry on his murderous ideology. That son today ispoised to lead a stronger, larger al Qaeda and is bent onavenging his dad's death, says an ex-FBI agent familiar withthose documents. Holly Williams interviews Ali Soufan, theformer FBI agent who was the bureau's lead investigator of alQaeda after the 9/11 attacks. Soufan describes a letter fromthe son, Hamza, that was collected in the raid and nowdeclassified. "He tells him that…he remembers 'everylook…every smile you gave me, every word you told me.'"Hamza would be about 28 now and wrote the letter when he was 22and had not seen his father in several years. Hamza also wrotethis: "I consider myself to be forged in steel. The path ofjihad for the sake of God is what we live." Curiosity - Rover"Curiosity" explores whether life could have begun on Mars. IsEarth the only planet in our solar system that has life on it?Scientists can't say for sure, but it's possible life couldhave flourished on Mars based on data gleaned by the Mars rover"Curiosity." Bill Whitaker reports on the sights and databeamed back more than 30-million miles from Mars by Curiosity,information that's telling scientists a lot about the RedPlanet and Earth. Whitaker visits the Jet Propulsion Laboratoryin Pasadena, California, to bring viewers on a trip to Mars.JPL monitors show incredible images from its surface, such asa sunset and Martian terrain. But information from Curiosity'sinternal lab offers evidence of essential organic chemicals,leading JPL's Chief Engineer Rob Manning to consider an evenwilder trip. "Could have been that Mars was habitable beforeEarth was and life got its foothold on Mars and took itsjourney to Earth and we're all Martians." Manning explains."When a meteor comes along and hits Mars, a rock from Mars canbe lifted up, travel in circles around the sun until somedayit will bump into Earth," he tells Whitaker. "We've found Marsrock…we've found them all over the Earth." Manning says Earthrocks have traveled to Mars in the same way and that it'spossible life could have survived the journey.
