(CBS BREAKING NEWS) All 4 Americans were dead, killed apparently by their captors. There were more than a dozen pirates on board, some dead and others captured, Martin reports.

I'm starting to wonder whether it will end up being the yacht or the people being held for ransom. How should this settle if they abandon the boat and focus on the hostages? Should we clarify this?
