Murdered Journalist Daniel Pearl's Father on Justice

Pearl, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal investigating Islamist militants in Pakistan post-9/11, was kidnapped in Karachi in 2002 and beheaded. Pearl’s family say they are in shock and are appealing to the U.S. government for help. Pearl’s father joins the show.
