My Brother's Bomber, Part Three (full documentary) | FRONTLINE

Ken Dornstein uncovers new information in his search for answers in the Lockerbie bombing that killed his brother and 269 other people. Part three of a three-part FRONTLINE series. When FRONTLINE filmmaker Ken Dornstein was 19 years old, his older brother David was one of 189 Americans killed in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. Some 25 years later, only one suspect, a Libyan man, was ever convicted of the terror plot, which killed 270 people in total. He was sentenced to life in prison but later released. Who else was involved remains an open case. Who was really responsible for one of the worst terrorist attacks on Americans before 9/11? In “My Brother’s Bomber,” an emotional and suspenseful three-part series, Dornstein embarks on a quest for answers and uncovers new information. Funding for FRONTLINE is provided through the support of PBS viewers and by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Major funding for FRONTLINE is provided by the John D. and Catherine T.

Episode Two – The 9/11 Chronology No narration. No interviews. No hindsight. Just the footage, audio, and reports that captured 9/11 as it happened. Episode Two begins at 8:49 AM on September 11, 2001 — minutes after the first plane impact. Over the next 12 minutes, two more planes go silent, emergency calls stream into the FDNY, breaking news of an 'accident' on TV and Radio Stations as broadcasters and the public struggle to work out what happened.

No commentary. No retrospective analysis. Nothing added, and nothing taken away.
