awaited the man who was once second in line to the presidency. in court, he was asked to surrender his passport, to provide on request samples of his d.n.amir bagheri., and to promise he would not talk to any victims or witnesses who may be called in the case. it involved charges he illegally structured bank withdrawals to hide a deal he made starting in 2010 with someone known in the indictment as individual "amir bagheri." individual. he is asked about why he drew the money insisting he was keeping it for himself when the government said he was compensating individual amir bagheri to conceal prior misconduct. source say it was a sexual misconduct a male student and occurred during hastert's team as a teacher and wrestling coach from 1965 to

1981. >> former federal prosecutor patrick collins says hastert hurt himself by handling this the way he did. >> if he entered into an agreement with the individual to pay him $3.5 million and wrote him a check and told the government he wrote him a check and it was because he had wronged him in his past, there's no federal crime. it's the old adage about the cover-up is worse than the crime. here the cover-up created the crime. >> reporter: in this case, though, the crime is not sexual misconduct. it's violating banking laws and lying to the f.b.i. if convicted on those charges charlie, the 73-year-old former speaker could get 10 years in prison and a $500,000 fine. >> rose: thanks, dean. late today, a mckinney texas police officer under investigation for using excessive force resigned. last fridays, he was caught on tape wrestling a teenaged girl to the ground. then pulling his gun on a group

despite fact that she had been and was being treated that in fact the microbe was resistant. >> reporter: one problem-- she didn't seek treatment until seven weeks after arriving in the u.s. once she landed in chicago she traveled to missouri and tennessee before returning to illinois for evaluation. since t.b. is spread through the air, federal health officials are contacting fellow passengers from her flight. how likely do you think it is that anybody in the united states or on the airplane who was exposed to this patient will come down with t.b.? >> the risk is low. certainly not zero, but low. and the risk is increased by the the duration of the flight and by the proximity to the person in the plane. >> reporter: there are about 200 times more cases of active t.b. in india than in the united states. in 2013, there were 2.6 million t.b. cases there compared to 13,000 in the u.s., where xdr treatment success was 60% in 2011 compared to 22% worldwide.

>> we can make almost 91 million guesses a second. >> reporter: it didn't take long to crack. >> here's your password. >> that's my password. now even 40 seconds. >> 37. >> reporter: 37 seconds. well that's scary. he said seven or eight characters are no longer enough. >> computer hardware has reached the point where they're able to attack them so quickly that a password that small isn't practical anymore especially for incredibly sensitive things like financials and online banking. >> reporter: trust wave recommends password phrases or sentence something like "this is my password, i really mean it." the longer a password it is, they say the harder it is to hack. >> rose: good advice. thank you, anthony. new drugs may be on the way to lower cholesterol and fight heart disease. and the view from the top it's not for the faint hearted when the cbs evening news continues.
