 New details coming to right about the leaker Edward Snowden, and how quickly the authorities may have suspected something was wrong. Also reaction from Wikileaks founder 1 Julian Assange and the &&&&. Let's get started.

We begin, though, with the very lastest on Edward Snowden, the defense 2 contractor 3 who revealed 2 big government surveillance programs: one targeting your phone records, the other focused on the internet in search of terrorist connections. Just who is this guy? Some earlier anwers now from our Brian Todd.
--Dscrbide as shy and self-effacing, the man who says he was the source of leaks detailing massive US surveillance programs, tells the Guardian 4 Newspaper why he did it.
Edward Snowden says quoted I;m no difference from anyone else.
--I'm just the another guy who sits there day to day in the office watches what is happening and goes, this is something that's not our place to decide. The public needs to decide whether these programs and policies are right or wrong.
Snowden said that from a hotel in Hong Kong, after having left his girlfriend in Hawaii where they reportedly share a home. She's not the only person with whom he may have severe ties by leaking and then going public.
Edward Snowden told the Guardian that the only thing he fears is the harmful effects of all of these on his family. Some of whom, he said, work for the US government.
We've confirmed that his mother, Elizabeth Snowden, works here at the US District Court House in Baltimore, Maryland, with a title Chief Deputy Clerk for Information Technology and Administrative 5 Services. Officials here said she's not available to speak to us.
Elizabeth Snowden also did not return our calls and e-mail. Outside her home near Baltimore, she was no more eager to speak to reporters.
--Any comment ...
--Please do not get in my way, thank you.
The Guardian says Edward Snowden moved to Maryland from Elizabeth City north Carolina where he spent his youth. CNN has learnt he went to elementary school and middle school in Crafton, Maryland, went to Arundel High School nearby.
But according to the Guardian, he never got a high school degree. He enlisted 6 in the army in 2004, was discharged in the same year. He told the Guardian, it was because he broke his legs in a training accident. Snowden told the Guardian he got his first job at the NSA as a security guard. He later became an IT security specialist at the CIA. From there he went to a private contractor doing work for the NSA. He said his computer skills enable him to move up quickly, despite the lack of high school degree. Before he took off Hong Kong, he says he was making 200,000 dollars a year.
Edward Snowden told the Guardian he had high hopes when President Obama vowed 7 a more transparent 8 administration, but that he became disappointed in the president.
We've learnt Snowden's name is on 2 contributions last year totally 500 dolars to libertarian Ron Paul's campaign. Snowden tells the Guardian he hopes for an asylum 9 in Iceland, but he also said quoted all my options are bad. Brian Todd, CNN, Maryland.
As soon as this story broke, we send our Miguel Marquez to see if he can learn more about Snowden by going to the last place he was before dropping off the map and ending up in Hong Kong. Marquez has new reporting tonight that at least suggest Snowden knwo he wouldn't be coming back. There's that and signs as well that the feds might have been on him earlier than previously 10 thought.
Miguel Marquez joins us now from Honolulu. So before he leaked the classified information, Snowden has said he told the employer,  Booz Allen Hamilton, that he needed some time off to see medical treatment for epilepsy. But you're learning that the police actually showed up at his home last Wednesday, which was the day before the Guardian report on Snowden's allegedly leaked information. So, just were they there to check on his welfare?
--Yeah, this is a part of little confusing, they did say there was a realtor at the house, when they got there. She said they were just asking, how's she doing, what's going on. But the house was completely empty. He'd moved out of that house on May 6th, never told his employer he was moving. He left Hawaii on May 20th. And then, when these 2 police officers, one uniform, one out of uniform, the realtor was not sure if it was a federal official or not. But clearly, officials were very concerned that he hadn't gone back to work and wanted to know where he was, where, exactly his whereabouts. They, their blood must have run cold when they realized the house that they thought he lived in was completely empty. Anderson.
