welcome back. we continue our look at one family's story of a miscarriage and how they say abortion laws in texas made their loss even worse. ryan hamilton described to omar villafranca how one hospital refused to help his wife after the initial treatment failed. in part two, he explains what happened when they were denied a procedure at a second hospital. >> you want to panic, but you can't. >> at this point you're just thinking get my wife safe. >> yeah. what are we going to do? leave the baby inside her so she can get an infection, get sepsis that can kill her? >> reporter: after leaving the surepoint emergency center, hamilton immediately drove his wife, along with their 9-month-old daughter, to another hospital an hour away, where she was treated for four hours, and doctors confirmed again there was no fetal heartbeat. hamilton asked cbs news not to name the hospital. >> what do you think debt lay
3:18 am
is? >> i think the delay is their confusion on what they're allowed to do. that's what it feels like. they feel scared. the doctors feel scared. >> reporter: according to texas law, abortions are illegal once a fetal heartbeat is detected with exceptions for medical emergencies. >> did the doctor say she was okay? >> this is what the doctor said. they said it was not enough of an emergency to perform a d & c. they told us we could have the procedure done. maybe we could schedule it for a week or two later. >> reporter: d & c stands for dilation and curettage, a surgical procedure to remove fetal tissue. it's used for both miscarriages and abortions. the law does not require there to be a medical emergency to perform a d & c if there is no cardiac activity, like in the hamiltons' case. in a statement, the hospital told cbs news it follows texas and federal laws in accordance with national standards of care. >> so it's no longer medical.
3:19 am
it's legal. >> that's what it feels like, and the conversation is not what's best for my wife. the conversation is on the hospital's side, what should we do? >> reporter: doctors opted to give her a higher dose of medication and sent her home for a third time. >> i was in the living room playing with our daughter, and i had a missed call on my phone from her. i go into our bedroom and then into the bathroom, and she is on the bathroom floor. there's blood where she fell from the toilet to the floor. she's unconscious, and her phone is still ringing to call me.
3:20 am
so i picked her up. i put her back on the toilet. i had to dress her, and my only goal in that moment was to get her to the emergency room. got to the hospital, ran inside, told them what was happening, and they took her in. and you know what they said? thank god you brought her. >> so -- >> so the baby's no longer there. then it's just a matter of
3:21 am
getting her to the point where she could go home. >> did you feel that she would be okay at home? >> no. she's still bleeding when she gets home. she's still bleeding right now. >> what do you want people to know about your experience? >> i want people to know that this really happens. my fear is that stories like ours will continue to get told and not believed. everything in her life right now that she's having to do to get better is not just a reminder of the baby that we lost, it's a reminder of what they put her through. and she has to do it every day. >> reporter: hamilton tells cbs news he does not plan to sue any of the hospitals involved but that he hopes his story can help
3:22 am
other families in the future. and he says he and his wife will now be focusing on each other, on healing and therapy. >> that was omar villafranca reporting. you're watching "cbs news roundup." after cooking a delicious knorr chicken cheddar broccoli recipe you will want to close your delivery apps. because nothing beats a perfect combo of sweet tomatoes, and smooth silky zucchini. make your own knorr taste combo. it's not fast food, but it's so good. inez, let me ask you, you're using head and shoulders, right? only when i see flakes.

3:29 am
garlic-crusted roast beef with a vegetable gravy and roasted vegetables. and then to end it, we've got olive oil cake with homemade whipped cream topped with fresh pomegranate. >> but even though it may look like a restaurant, it's not. farming hope is a nonprofit training program that helps people who have either been incarcerated, homeless, or are survivors of violent crimes. carrie rogers is the co-executive director. >> when you're overcoming obstacles in your life and trying to move on to your next chapter and re-enter the workforce, you may be the last person called back for a job interview or never called back. >> reporter: the meals here are free. every single customer is food-insecure. the only payment accepted in this place is a thank-you. >> do you love it? >> reporter: rebecca nichols came here with her great grandson. she says living on a fixed income leaves little money for eating out. >> oh, my gosh, it's an elegant dinner with tablecloths. >> reporter: for devin, it's a dream come true.
3:30 am
>> i get to do what a love for a passion, but i'm also helping people. you know what i'm saying? >> reporter: it's a reminder that sometimes all it takes to change a life is a helping hand and a delicious meal served with a side of redemption. itay hod, cbs news, san francisco. and that's today's "cbs news roundup." for some of you, the news continues. for others, be sure to tune in later for "cbs mornings." reporting from the cbs news broadcast center in new york city, i'm shanelle kaul. ♪ hello and thanks so much for
3:31 am
watching. i'm shanelle kaul in new york, and here are some of the stories we're tracking on "cbs news roundup." radical new changes to america's southern border immigration policy take effect, strictly limiting the number of illegal entries every day. testimony began in hunter biden's federal trial. he is facing charges of illegally buying a handgun. and a new betting scandal now threatens to cast a shadow over the summer baseball season. the american civil liberties union says it will sue the biden administration over a radical new executive action on immigration. the white house has now given border officials the authority to deport large numbers of migrants without processing their asylum claims. the restrictions will stay in effect until illegal crossings dip below 1,500 migrants a day, and they'll be triggered again if crossings spike. cbs's natalie brand reports on the president's attempts to address one of his biggest
3:32 am
political vulnerabilities. >> reporter: with agents overwhelmed on the southern border, president biden announced plans for sweeping new restrictions on migrants seeking asylum at the u.s./mexico border. >> to protect america as a land that welcomes immigrants, we must first secure the border and secure it now. >> reporter: the plan would allow immigration officials to quickly deport migrants who enter the u.s. without an asylum appointment when the weekly average of illegal daily entries exceeds 2,500. the move comes months before election day and follows the collapse of a bipartisan border security deal. president biden argues congressional inaction left him no choice. >> i'm moving past republican obstruction and using executive authorities available to me as president to do what i can on my own to address the border. >> reporter: republicans, including texas governor greg abbott, argue the new policy comes too late and doesn't go far enough. >> after the first 2,500, they say that they will stop
3:33 am
providing asylum. but they don't say they will stop illegal immigration from coming across the border. >> reporter: joanna williams, who runs the keno border initiative serving migrants in nogales, mexico, spoke to cbs's news' lilia luciano. >> different policies have been in effect for over 20 years here at the border. and what they lead to is an increase in deaths. their other option is to try to go out into the desert and avoid finding border patrol. and this is two days before our first heat wave of the summer. >> reporter: with the most recent numbers showing an average of 3,800 illegal border crossings a day, the new action is set to take effect right away. natalie brand, cbs news, washington. opening statements got under way in delaware on tuesday in the first ever criminal trial of a sitting president's child. hunter biden is charged with three felony counts for allegedly lying on a federal form required to purchase a firearm in 2018. cbs's scott macfarlane was inside the courtroom as
3:34 am
prosecutors began laying out their case. >> reporter: an emotional first day in the trial of hunter biden, with the first lady and hunter biden's wife seated behind the president's son, prosecutors and an fbi agent witness played long clips of biden's 2021 audio book of his memoirs in which he narrated his descent into addiction to crack cocaine in 2018. >> i used my superpower, finding crack anytime, anywhere, less than a day after landing at l.a.x. in the spring of 2018. >> reporter: former federal prosecutor tom dupree. >> prosecutors will tell you there are few things more effective before a jury than being able to show the jury what the defendant said. in this case, hearing the defendant's own voice describing his struggles with addiction and the fact that he was using illegal controlled substances right around the time he bought this gun. >> reporter: prosecutors for special counsel david weiss opened their case, telling the six-man, six-woman delaware jury "no one is above the law.
3:35 am
addiction may not be a choice, but lying and buying a gun is a choice." biden has pleaded not guilty to unlawfully possessing a gun while using or addicted to drugs and making false statements applying for the gun in october 2018 for not acknowledging drug use at the time. biden's defense attorney today argued the president's son didn't knowingly make false statements because he was seeking sobriety and, like other addicts, experienced a deep state of denial. >> they're really trying to paint hunter biden as someone who was making a good faith effort to get himself clean, to get his life back in order. >> reporter: biden's ex-wife, kathleen, and hallie biden, will testify as early as tomorrow. and prosecutors warn the jurors it will be embarrassing for hunter biden. scott macfarlane, cbs news, wilmington, delaware. major league baseball is struggling to tackle a new gambling scandal. five players have been suspended, including one

lifetime ban for betting on games. as cbs's carter evans reports, it comes on the same day the former interpreter for dodgers superstar shohei ohtani pleaded guilty in another betting case. it's a series of scandals rocking america's pastime. >> reporter: the interpreter for one of baseball's biggest stars says he's guilty of stealing almost $17 million from shohei ohtani. ippei mizuhara says he used that money to pay his gambling debts to a bookie. he faces a maximum of 33 years in prison. >> mr. ohtani is considered a victim in this case. >> reporter: this as major league baseball is cracking down on five players for betting on the game. four of them received one-year suspensions, but infielder tucupita marcano got the ultimate punishment, a lifetime ban for allegedly betting on his own major league team. the league says marcano wagered more than $150,000 on baseball,

straightforward so there's no complicated geometries, no alcoves, no recesses. all those places are opportunities for wind forces to build and create additional stresses on the building. the ground floor of the building is several feet higher. >> reporter: architect jonathan ray was part of the team. we walked along streets that were flooded with storm surge during ian. but the hotel's first floor is nine feet above ground level, which prevented flooding inside. backup generators are 15 feet high on a raised platform, which kept the hotel running. one easy to miss detail, a slight bend in the structure, which engineer amir agajani says adds strength, as he demonstrated with a piece of paper. >> it can't stand on its side. it can't stand upright for that matter. if you put a simple bend in it, we're not adding any material, and all of a sudden with that simple bend, it stays up. >> reporter: since no building can be hurricane-proof, hurricane resilience is the goal. >> i think a lot of people will

think this is all great, but it must be costly to build like this. >> yes, good point. i like to think of it as invest now or pay later because what you're doing now is you're creating value. >> and the glaciers are melting. >> reporter: students at florida international university's architecture school are looking at another problem, sea level rise, expected to flood much of south florida by the year 2100. >> it's just a matter of time. >> it's a matter of time. it can go quick. >> reporter: which is why professor thomas spiegel halter's students are using a.i. to plan cities of the future, raised over water with structures that mimic shapes found in nature that can withstand hurricanes too. >> we have to be open and understand that being truly efficient and designing optimized, self-sufficient, resilient structures means we need to learn from nature. >> reporter: post-doctoral

3:50 am
which just means you can't have a blanket around you. >> reporter: in 2009 in federal court, bell adoff filed a lawsuit that came to be known as martin versus boise, arguing that the city of boise had violated the eighth amendment of the constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment by leaving those without homes nowhere to legally sleep. >> it's cruel and unusual in the true sense of the word because every single one of us, rich, poor, old, one, male, female, they need to sleep. >> reporter: nine years later, the 9th circuit court of appeals based in san francisco agreed with bell adoff, writing it considered whether the eighth amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment bars a city from prosecuting people criminally for sleeping outside on public property, concluding it does. >> and the fact that the courts have crippled our ability to do our jobs to help get people into
3:51 am
shelters is criminal. >> reporter: san francisco's mayor, london breed, blames martin versus boise for worsening the city's crisis. a court order bars san francisco from clearing sidewalk encampments unless it can guarantee a place to sleep for everyone it moves. a challenge in a city with more than 8,000 homeless but fewer than 4,000 shelter beds. nationally there is a lack of shelter beds. by one estimate, about 188,000 more people need shelter than there are beds available. but the martin versus boise decision applies only to the nine western states under 9th circuit jurisdiction. >> in the rest of the country, 14 states have laws making it a crime to camp in public places, and 27 states have laws against vagrancy and loitering that can be used to move along those sleeping in public. those kinds of laws have effectively been outlawed in 9th circuit states. >> what the 9th circuit has said
3:52 am
is that a person can't be punished for being homeless if there aren't adequate shelter beds or places for them to go. >> reporter: irwin chemerinsky is a leading constitutional scholar and dean of the law school at uc berkeley. >> the eighth amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment, we think of it being applied to death penalty cases, for example. how can it be applied to homelessness? >> in 1962, the united states supreme court said it's cruel and unusual punishment to punish somebody for a status. in that case, they said you can't punish somebody for being a drug addict. you can punish them for taking drugs or possessing drugs but not for the status of being addicted. likewise the federal court of appeals here said you can't punish somebody for the status of being unhoused. >> needing more affordable housing. >> reporter: since the unhoused can't be denied a place to sleep, mayor kate colin in san rafael, california, is almost powerless to move the person
3:53 am
living in a tent beside city hall. shelters here are usually full, which means this suburban city of 60,000 can legally do little about encampments on its streets. >> every time we passed an ordinance, we were sued either immediately or within the time frame that that could happen. >> it must be frustrating to try to say to residents here, sorry, we can't move the people who are camped at the end of your street because the court has told us we can't. >> it is frustrating. so when we say it's because of the federal law, it takes people a moment to say, really? >> reporter: while many cities complain about martin versus boise, grant's pass, oregon, is doing something. the city appealed to the supreme court. when the case was argued in april, advocates for the unhoused demonstrated outside the court while inside, attorney thee aanyway e advantage list representing grants pass urged the justices to overturn martin versus boise. >> it would be a disaster if martin were to remain on the
3:54 am
books in any form. >> how did grants pass, oregon, population, what, about 40,000, become central to this case before the supreme court? >> it was sued by a group of plaintiffs who claimed that it would be cruel and unusual punishment for grants pass to enforce its local camping ordinances. >> reporter: the supreme court decision, expected this month, could impact homeless policy across the country. >> all of us living here within the 9th circuit have seen the effects firsthand of these decisions, and that's why if the supreme court were to agree with the 9th circuit, those conditions would spread to the rest of the country, and that would be the opposite of solving this problem. >> for homeless people, the question is are they going to face criminal punishment becaus they don't have a house to live? for cities, the question is what can cities do lawfully to deal with their unhoused population? and for the constitution, the question is what's this going to mean for the 8th amendment?
3:55 am
>> reporter: robert martin no longer lives on the streets, but his thoughts remain with those who still search for places to sleep. >> being homeless should never equate to an unlawful act. being homeless is an unforeseen and unfortunate circumstance. >> reporter: for howard bell adoff, the attorney who started it all, the case is not only about the rights of the homeless. it's also about their humanity. >> they feel so powerless because nobody listens and nobody cares. for the first time they feel like they're a person. >> that

watching. i'm shanelle kaul in new york, and here are some of the stories we're tracking on "cbs news roundup." radical new changes to america's southern border immigration policy take effect, strictly limiting the number of illegal entries every day. testimony began in hunter biden's federal trial. he is facing charges of illegally buying a handgun. and a new betting scandal now threatens to cast a shadow over the summer baseball season. the american civil liberties union says it will sue the biden administration over a radical new executive action on immigration. the white house has now given border officials the authority to deport large numbers of migrants without processing their asylum claims. the restrictions will stay in effect until illegal crossings dip below 1,500 migrants a day, and they'll be triggered again if crossings spike. cbs's natalie brand reports on
4:02 am
the president's attempts to address one of his biggest political vulnerabilities. >> reporter: with agents overwhelmed on the southern border, president biden announced plans for sweeping new restrictions on migrants seeking asylum at the u.s./mexico border. >> to protect america as a land that welcomes immigrants, we must first secure the border and secure it now. >> reporter: the plan would allow immigration officials to quickly deport migrants who enter the u.s. without an asylum appointment when the weekly average of illegal daily entries exceeds 2,500. the move comes months before election day and follows the collapse of a bipartisan border security deal. president biden argues congressional inaction left him no choice. >> i'm moving past republican obstruction and using executive authorities available to me as president to do what i can on my own to address the border. >> reporter: republicans, including texas governor greg abbott, argue the new policy comes too late and doesn't go far enough. >> after the first 2,500, they say that they will stop
4:03 am
providing asylum. but they don't say they will stop illegal immigration from coming across the border. >> reporter: joanna williams, who runs the keno border initiative serving migrants in nogales, mexico, spoke to cbs news' lilia luciano. >> different policies have been in effect for over 20 years here at the border. and what they lead to is an increase in deaths. their other option is to try to go out into the desert and avoid finding border patrol. and this is two days before our first heat wave of the summer. >> reporter: with the most recent numbers showing an average of 3,800 illegal border crossings a day, the new action is set to take effect right away. natalie brand, cbs news, washington. opening statements got under way in delaware on tuesday in the first ever criminal trial of a sitting president's child. hunter biden is charged with three felony counts for allegedly lying on a federal form required to purchase a firearm in 2018. cbs's scott macfarlane was inside the courtroom as

prosecutors began laying out their case. >> reporter: an emotional first day in the trial of hunter biden, with the first lady and hunter biden's wife seated behind the president's son, prosecutors and an fbi agent witness played long clips of biden's 2021 audio book of his memoirs in which he narrated his descent into addiction to crack cocaine in 2018. >> i used my superpower, finding crack anytime, anywhere, less than a day after landing at l.a.x. in the spring of 2018. >> reporter: former federal prosecutor tom dupree. >> prosecutors will tell you there are few things more effective before a jury than being able to show the jury what the defendant said. in this case, hearing the defendant's own voice describing his struggles with addiction and the fact that he was using illegal controlled substances right around the time he bought this gun. >> reporter: prosecutors for special counsel david weiss opened their case, telling the six-man, six-woman delaware jury
4:05 am
"no one is above the law. addiction may not be a choice, but lying and buying a gun is a choice." biden has pleaded not guilty to unlawfully possessing a gun while using or addicted to drugs and making false statements applying for the gun in october 2018 for not acknowledging drug use at the time. biden's defense attorney today argued the president's son didn't knowingly make false statements because he was seeking sobriety and, like other addicts, experienced a deep state of denial. >> they're really trying to paint hunter biden as someone who was making a good faith effort to get himself clean, to get his life back in order. >> reporter: biden's ex-wife, kathleen, and hallie biden, his brother's widow with whom he was also romantically linked, will testify as early as tomorrow. and prosecutors warn the jurors it will be embarrassing for hunter biden. scott macfarlane, cbs news, wilmington, delaware. major league baseball is struggling to tackle a new gambling scandal. five players have been suspended, including one

4:07 am
bets on the pittsburgh pirates when he was an active player but out with an injury. >> it just feels like this is the tip of an iceberg and it's only going to get more complicated and more messy as we go on. >> reporter: the mlb says none of the bets impacted the outcome of any games. last year, by the way, americans wagered nearly $14 billion on baseball. carter evans, cbs news, los angeles. well, if you act fast, you might be able to buy up a piece of history. the childhood home of boxing legend muhammud ali is going up for sale. it's where the three-time heavyweight champ first learned to box. the single-story, two-bedroom and one-bath home in louisville, kentucky, was converted into a museum after ali's death. it closed during covid and never reopened. now the owners are hoping to find a new buyer who will maintain the museum. the house and two adjoining buildings is listed at $1.5 million. the first major heat wave of the summer is bearing down on

this half hour, we're taking an in-depth look at the unintended consequences of some states' restrictive and unclear abortion laws. 43-year-old radio host ryan hamilton got a lot of attention on social media with this post about his wife's miscarriage, writing, quote, unfortunately for people like us, because of the current laws in the state of texas, that was only the beginning of this nightmare. ryan hamilton told omar villafranca how the loss of their child only became worse after they went to multiple hospitals looking for help. >> when you find out your baby doesn't have a heartbeat, that's only the beginning. so the conversation becomes, what do we do? >> reporter: ryan hamilton says his world shattered on may 16th. his wife was nearly 13 weeks pregnant with their second child when she called him with tragic news. >> she said that our baby has no

heartbeat, and that's all she could really get out. >> reporter: medical records reviewed by cbs news show his wife was treated at a surepoint emergency center branch near his home in north texas, where doctors confirmed the fetus had no heartbeat. >> we were told that she could take a medication that would start the process to finish -- to finish what had already started at home. >> reporter: hamilton's wife was prescribed misoprostol, a drug that induces labor and is used for both miscarriages and abortions. >> they used terminology with us like "terminate the pregnancy." nobody uses the word "abortion" at this point. >> okay. nobody is -- >> nobody. >> she has not said it. you have not said it. >> nobody has said it. no one has said that word. >> reporter: hamilton's wife was sent home to expel the nonviable
4:13 am
fetus and told to return if she needed to repeat the medication. and after two days -- >> we call the emergency center that we went to, and we say, "it's not working." so she goes back in, and that doctor says, "due to the current stance, i cannot prescribe this medicine for you." >> how did you take that? >> fury. my wife especially. i can't say what she said. it's confusing at first, and there's no explanation from them. so you just assume this stance of the state of texas because of the law. >> when that doctor said that, did you think you were going to get the proper help for your wife? >> no. you start thinking about the women that have to drive across state lines.

welcome back. we continue our look at one family's story of a miscarriage and how they say abortion laws in texas made their loss even worse. ryan hamilton described to omar villafranca how one hospital refused to help his wife after the initial treatment failed. in part two, he explains what happened when they were denied a procedure at a second hospital. >> you want to panic, but you can't. >> at this point you're just thinking get my wife safe. >> yeah. what are we going to do? leave the baby inside her so she can get an infection, get sepsis that can kill her? >> reporter: after leaving the surepoint emergency center, hamilton immediately drove his wife, along with their 9-month-old daughter, to another hospital an hour away, where she was treated for four hours, and doctors confirmed again there was no fetal heartbeat. hamilton asked cbs news not to name the hospital. >> what do you think the delay is?
4:18 am
>> i think the delay is their confusion on what they're allowed to do. that's what it feels like. they feel scared. the doctors feel scared. >> reporter: according to texas law, abortions are illegal once a fetal heartbeat is detected with exceptions for medical emergencies. >> did the doctor say she was okay? >> this is what the doctor said. they said it was not enough of an emergency to perform a d & c. they told us we could have the procedure done. maybe we could schedule it for a week or two later. >> reporter: d & c stands for dilation and curettage, a surgical procedure to remove fetal tissue. it's used for both miscarriages and abortions. the law does not require there to be a medical emergency to perform a d & c if there is no cardiac activity, like in the hamiltons' case. in a statement, the hospital told cbs news it follows texas and federal laws in accordance with national standards of care. >> so it's no longer medical.
4:19 am
it's legal. >> that's what it feels like, and the conversation is not what's best for my wife. the conversation is, on the hospital's side, what should we do? >> reporter: doctors opted to give her a higher dose of medication and sent her home for a third time. >> i was in the living room playing with our daughter, and i had a missed call on my phone from her. i go into our bedroom and then into the bathroom, and she is on the bathroom floor. there's blood where she fell from the toilet to the floor. she's unconscious, and her phone is still ringing to call me.

so i picked her up. i put her back on the toilet. i had to dress her, and my only goal in that moment was to get her to the emergency room. got to the hospital, ran inside, told them what was happening, and they took her in. and you know what they said? "thank got you brought her." >> so -- >> so the baby's no longer there.
4:21 am
then it's just a matter of getting her to the point where she could go home. >> did you feel that she would be okay at home? >> no. she's still bleeding when she gets home. she's still bleeding right now. >> what do you want people to know about your experience? >> i want people to know that this really happens. my fear is that stories like ours will continue to get told and not believed. everything in her life right now that she's having to do to get better is not just a reminder of the baby that we lost. it's a reminder of what they put her through. and she has to do it every day. >> reporter: hamilton tells cbs news he does not plan to sue any of the hospitals involved but
4:22 am
that he hopes his story can help other families in the future. and he says he and his wife will now be focusing on each other, on healing and therapy. >> that was omar villafranca reporting. you're watching "cbs news roundup." wanna know a secret? more than just my armpits stink. that's why i use secret whole body deodorant... everywhere. 4 out of 5 gynecologists would recommend whole body deodorant, which gives you 72 hour odor protection from your pits to your- (sfx: deoderant being sprayed) secret whole body deodorant. when it comes to your wellness routine, the details are the difference.
