you'll hear from a defector who's still traumatized by north korean propaganda. and, later, segregated proms in georgia. if you think this is something from 1963, well, it's not. it's now. we begin tonight keeping them honest with a trial of a doctor who ran a house of horrors. a filthy medical clinic in philadelphia that for years, performed illegal abortions of mostly poor patients. what allegedly happened inside that abortion clinic called the women's medical society could have been stopped if any number of state agencies had done their jobs. they didn't and women and children paid the price. there were plenty of complaints over the years, plenty of malpractice, patients who died or had to be hospitalized. but, stilt, the state did nothing. in pennsylvania, abortions passed 24 weeks are illegal unless the life or health of the

mother is at stake. however, this doctor, gosnell, offered illegal abortions killing an unknown number of viable fetuses. his criteria wasn't the life or health of the mother but whether they could pay in cash. it's gruesome to think about, but he did it by snipping their spinal cords with a pair of scissors. he was not certified and is now on trial on eight counts of murder. he faces the death penalty. three years ago, they raided the medical center looking for drug sales. what they found when they entered that clinic was utterly horrifying. blood on the floors, a flea-infested cat moaning the halls, moaning, semi-conscious patients. the evidence presented in this grand jury report, 281 pages of

it, is sickening. according to a police detective, the doctor stated that as many as 20 pnts of the fetuses he aborted were probably older than 24 weeks. page 5 of the grand jury report details the live delivery in killing of a 7 1/2 month old baby. big enough, the doctor allegedly said, to walk me to the bus stop. page five of 20081 pages. there is more on every page detailing the unlicensed, untrained staffers and even a 15-year-old assisting in abortions. the government agencies that had been given warning signs about the clinics, some of them dating back decades. this story has not obtained the media coverage that one would expect. we're going to talk about that, as well.

first, and this isn't easy to watch, more on what allegedly happened inside that clinic. >> the doctor's abortion clinic is now closed and the allegations of what happened inside are shocking. >> the baby had been born and was on a cold, steel table and murdered by taking scissors and putting them into the neck and cutting, severing, the spinal cord. it's just homicide. it's murder. accurate records, however, were never kepted. the doctor is only accused of murdering seven babies the same report includes a litany.

this woman, who had an abortion performed, believes she contracted a serious infection from deplorable conditions. >> this 41-year-old woman who died of an an sthetic overdose during a second trimester abortion. the doctor's abortion clinic, the women's medical society, had been in business since 1979 been in business since 1979. the question is, how could this have gone on for so long with no one complaining to state authorities. it turns out there were plenty of complaints, but the state irk didn't shut the clinic down. the pennsylvania department of health did official inspections as far back as 1989, and repeatedly found health violations in the clinic but never ensured they were corrected. the grand jury report also said, quote, the medical examiner of

delaware county informed the county that he had performed an illegal abortion on a 14-year-old girl carrying a 30-week-old baby. and received notice of the 41-year-old woman's death for which gosnell faces a murder charge. none of that got the department of health to investigate. the grand jury report states in 1993, because of political reasons, the department of health stopped inspecting all abortion clinics in the state. other agencies also failed to properly investigate. the pennsylvania department of state, through its board of medicine, received a complaint a decade ago from a former employee of dr. gosnell, and according to the grand jury report, laid out the whole scope of his operation, the unclean, unsterile conditions, the unlicensed workers, the unsupervised sedation, and the underaged abortion patients. they did assign an investigator who interviewed dr. gosnell, but incredibly they never inspected his clinic. the complaint was eventually dismissed. the clinic was finally shut down

not because of botched abortions, but because of drugs. the fbi raided the office because of illegal prescriptions of oxycontin and other painkillers that brought him hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. these photos show some of the unsanitary conditions, they even found remains of aborted fetuses. he's now on trial and has pled not guilty. >> this was a person providing a service in philadelphia, that did not do the things that the grand jury says that he did. he did not execute viable babies. that's just not the reality of what was going on here. >> reporter: in the fallout of this case, seven staffers for pennsylvania's department of health and department of state have since left their jobs or been fired for their alleged mishandling of the gosnell case. officials say they've overhauled their investigative and communication procedures so this never can happen again. jeffrey toobin, and david, the writer and director of 3801

lancaster, a documentary about the clinic. and a court reporter for the philadelphia enquirer. so, first of all, jeff, what do you make of this? this doctor is charged with multiple counts now of murder. it's incredible to me that this went on and on with the state doing nothing. >> it's hard to describe. it's hard to select what is the worst part of this story. certainly the deaths of these babies, the deaths of these women is the worst part. but there's so much awful there. one part you didn't even mention was this whole weird racial dimension, where he would treat white patients better than the african-american patients. >> or bring white patients to the one clean office and the african-american patients were left down -- >> gosnell himself is african-american. the whole thing was such a house of horrors. and why it wasn't stopped, i don't think there is a clear answer at this point. >> david, in your documentary, which is viewed, you can see it online, it's remarkable, you interviewed several women who were patients of dr. gosnell.

i want to listen to a portion of your film. >> they came in and finally called my name. i went upstairs. and i remember just walking through and looking and seeing some women that looked half dead. there was blood all over the recliner chairs, all over the floor. i just kept going. >> david, if anyone from the department of health or other agencies actually had gone there over the years, they would have seen what that patient saw. >> absolutely, yeah. that was one of the things that i just couldn't believe when i first heard about this case, and started reading the grand jury report. the pennsylvania department of health, the pennsylvania department of state, and the philadelphia department of public health and safety, they had ample opportunity to investigate and to shut gosnell down. >> joe, the doctor's staff, they

seemed completely untrained. the chief anesthesiologist i understand had only a 7th graded indication. >> that's correct. linda williams testified this week she never went beyond 7th grade. and eventually got some training as a phlebotomist. but really didn't work in that job. she was working at another abortion clinic in delaware, sterilizing instruments. that's where she met gosnell. and later, after her husband was murdered, and she was going through problems, gosnell agreed to hire her under the table, and then gradually trained her in different skills needed for the abortion procedure. and linda, as any other employee, when they said, is this okay, is this legal, gosnell, according to the trial testimony, would say, you're working for a doctor, you're

grandfathered in. >> eight of his subordinates have already pleaded guilty. and so the -- at first, their defense was, well, the doctor told me it was okay. but when you have monstrous acts like this, just a doctor telling you that this is okay, you know, you as a human being are expected to understand this was a crime. >> in '93, they stopped all inspections in the state of abortion clinics. is that because of political pressure? >> that to me, and perhaps these other gentlemen can explain that to me. i'm confused why that happened. pennsylvania has been a hotbed of abortion politics. one of the interesting aspects of this case is everyone sees what they want. politically in this case. anti-abortion people see the horror of abortion. pro-abortion rights people say, this is what happens when you don't allow people to use medicaid to get abortions, but i still don't -- maybe these guys -- >> do you know the answer to that? in the grand jury report it indicates it was political

pressure that, you know, that i guess pro-choice groups campaigning to stop -- do you know why these -- why all inspections were stopped? >> well, we don't know exactly why the commonwealth of pennsylvania -- jeffrey's right, after all the work they put into the abortion control act, and trying to restrict abortion in every way they can, we've never really heard why they didn't follow up. not only did they not inspect the clinic, but in one case of the -- i think you mentioned earlier, a 14-year-old girl who had an abortion, she was going to have an abortion at gosnell's clinic, she wound up going to the emergency room of a local hospital. the fetus was born dead. and the medical examiner wrote to the state department of health saying, this is a 30-week-old fetus, it's in violation of the abortion control act.

never received a response. >> david, there are obviously -- i mean, race has got to play some role in this, in that the people, by and large, the patients were african-american, latino, didn't have a lot of money, didn't have a lot of political power. i mean, maybe i shouldn't say it's obviously a part of it. do you think it's a part of it, that taes one of the reasons the state didn't after the impetus to investigate is this. >> i think that's part of it. page 13, if i can just read a short thing, on page 13 of the grand jury report, they say the reason no one acted is the people who reported were of color, and the subject was the political football of abortion. so i think that absolutely played a part of it. it wouldn't be accurate to say that all of his patients were minorities. i was just talking to one of his former patients last week who was a white girl who went to a reputable clinic in maryland and that clinic referred her to gosnell. there were hundreds of women who

came to gosnell from his neighborhood, but this were women who came from all over the eastern seaboard who were referred to him. >> it seemed as he became as known as the specialty who is a guy for cash, these are the allegations, that for cash he would perform late-term abortions whereas others wouldn't. >> late-term abortions are one of the most politically controversial aspects of abortion now. they are generally banned except when the life of the mother is at stake, life or health of the mother. but that, it can very much be determined by the doctor. and gossnell apparently had the reputation for finding justification of doing it. >> david, obviously you picked up on this a long time ago. there's been a lot of criticism, jeff, for not covering this in the same way they covered the jodi arias trial. or it's not front page news in a

lot of places. this is the first night we're covering it. why do you think that is, that is hasn't received the front page coverage? >> the people making those criticisms are by and large conservative. they're saying the liberal media is trying to protect the abortion rights. i don't buy that at all. i can only speak for cnn, and my knowledge of this part of the media, the "new yorker" where i work, mainstream "new york times," they don't cover a story. it's a business decision. we are not operating with the political agenda here. we pick stories. by and large for reasons we think people would be interested. i don't think we're covering this up. i think that's a way of trying to -- >> david? >> yeah? >> what do you think about why it hasn't received the kind of coverage it might have otherwise? >> i am shocked that the major media outlets haven't covered a story that is as, for lack of a better word, as sensational as this. i do think it's because we're uncomfortable talking about the issue of abortion. unfortunately, because we haven't talked about it, these

women and these babies are being forgotten. these women who -- i mean, like women in the film, like you just saw, they've been forgotten. they've been, quote unquote, blocked out. i think abortion has something to do with it. we're afraid to talk about it. >> for me, the eye opening part was reading the grand jury report. once you read it, it's not only the horrors that occurred there, but the failures, repeated failures year after year after year of state authorities, and that bears further investigation. david, again, people can see your documentary online. what's your website, david? >> it's 3801 lancaster.com. >> joe, i appreciate your reporting and jeff toobin, i thank you. secretary of state john kerry is in south korea trying to tamp down the report of north korea. the north had a fiery message for another neighbor. the power of north korea's propaganda machine.

welcome back. a message to north korea tonight is cooling. secretary of state kerry warned the north not to test-fire a ballistic missile. kim jong-un needs to understand, as i think he does, what the outcome of that conflict would be. he also downplayed that assessment from the defense intelligence agency, suggesting pyongyang may have developed the capability to fire a nuclear missile at its neighbors. none of which has stopped the north from launching more verbal attacks. north korean state news agency warning that any, quote, provocative action would see tokyo, quote, consumed in nuclear flames. kyung lah is with us for more. is there any better sense tonight, kyung, of if or when north korea might go forward a missile launch?

yesterday they raised them and lowered them. what's the latest? >> reporter: i need to be very frank, anderson, we don't know. we are left guessing, as we always are with the kim. they raise a missile launch, lower the missile launcher. the sense in the region is this is north korea playing games. so the region is left to guess if this will happen. it is saturday warning here. on the weekend they typically do not do this. it's also friday night in the united states. and these launches are a message to america, bottom line. so they don't want to do it when they don't have ultimate news coverage. the maximum news coverage. they're also not expecting that it will happen monday here in asia, sunday night in the u.s. because it's kim il-sung's birthday on monday. they expect if it happens at all, it may be tuesday. this kid, again, he is unpredictable, and thereby, a little more dangerous than his father, anderson. >> obviously we were talking

about secretary kerry being in seoul today. the message was clear for him that the u.s. stands with the south. how is that being received on both sides of the peninsula? >> reporter: we're actually having complete silence. we're getting reaction from south korea, the president greeting very warmly, saying she completely agrees, falling in line exactly what secretary kerry is saying. saying, okay, it hasn't worked. we can't keep playing these war games, we can't keep playing tough. let's open up the dialogue. let's extend a hand. but she says, okay, north korea, we're going to talk. but you have to play nice. >> kyung, we'll come back to you shortly, at the terrifying grip the north korean propaganda has. but the state television newscast. take a look at this. >> you can look at the

>> you can look at the propaganda and laugh how comical it seems. but there's nothing to laugh about where the north korean regime is concerned. its main purpose seems to be brainwashing its own people in a sense and haunting those who have been lucky enough to escape. here's kyung lah. >> reporter: bizarre, over the top.

welcome to the one and only television channel available this north korea. korean central television, kctv. to the outside world, it runs from the weird to the ridiculous to unbelievable and outlandish propaganda. but watch as this woman watches kctv. they're god, she says, referring to north korea's trinity king john un, his father and grandfather. how can people think of him as a god is this that's what you're taught since birth, says this defector, who escaped north korea ten years ago fleeing the brutal regime. he said, it's been a long time since i last saw it, and i feel i'm getting emotional. i don't know how to express this.

this is not a lie, this is not an act, it's real. if anything happens, north koreans will give up their lives. they will even jump into a fire. this is very powerful. even though you left ten years ago, this still has power over you. we watched a children show that she remembered. and a war film that depicts north koreans defeating americans. but if there's a revelation for this woman who fled north korea so long ago, it's this, you didn't know kim jong-un. do you feel the same love and devotion to him that you felt to kim jong-il, just by watching this television? yes, i feel the same. he looks like kim il-sung. he looks exactly like his grandfather. he's the same. he's doing exactly what his grandfather and his father did.

the power of propaganda on a people, the power of a regime. >> it's amazing to see her reaction. you know, even though she's escaped, to see just her reaction looking at that, to talk about her love of -- for the kim family seems kind of shocking. >> reporter: it shocked her as well. this is a woman who fled north korea. if she was caught, she would have faced execution. she's not someone ho loves this regime, but she had this incredible emotional reaction. anderson, what i found really interesting is, after she started having this reaction, she almost couldn't understand my questions. she couldn't respond to these questions. i met her three years ago, she's very sharp. it was as if she lost that edge as soon as she started watching television. really gives us a window into this regime's power over its people. >> the impact this has growing up in it. kyung, thanks, as always. find out more on this story at cnn.com.

welcome back. the republican national committee reaffirmed its position that a marriage should be solely between one man and one woman. a report called for the gop to

soften its tone on hot-button issues including same-sex marriage. high-profile republicans as you know have publicly been making the case for widening the party's tent. >> i think we have to be a becoming party. >> we need to be the party of inclusion. >> more dynamic republican party. >> a lot of social conservatives were angered by the rnc report. a group of support es said, until the other organizations develop a backbone, don't send them a dime of your hard-earned money. and pass a resolution reiterating the gop support for the party platform that was overwhelmingly adopted in tampa last year. the party platform defines marriage solely between one man and one woman. the rnc did exactly as perkins asked. some of the parties' ranks are breaking ranks.

two have put their support behind the same-sex marriage. matt salmon of arizona recently said having a gay son has not changed his views on same-sex marriage. his son, matt, a third-year medical student, and described being bullied as a teenager, going through reparative therapy and making peace with himself and his family. >> i didn't know if my family would ever come around. my parents were very politically opposed to gay and equal rights. i can tell you, since i've come out, things have changed with my family. but it wasn't until i realized one key thing. if i wanted them to love me and fully accept me, i had to love and fully accept them, too. >> a powerful video online now. matt salmon joins me now.

great to have you here. >> great to be here. thank you. >> you heard the rnc talking about having a bigger tent, i imagine you were encouraged. >> yeah. >> how did you feel today when they agreed to reiterate one man, one woman? >> you talked about the platform. part of the republican platform that they put out in 2012 states that the only true just government is one who governs by the consent of the government. and we've seen polls that show the majority of americans now, i think by a recent poll, showed support for gay marriage. now we have these leaders who have come out in support, in the republican party. it's just the disappointment that the chairman, co-chair are still sticking with these old views. >> the situation that you face

in your family is interesting. it mirrors what a lot of people go through, a lot of gay people go through growing up in conservative households. you grew up in the mormon church. both of your parents are interested in politics and are conservative. how do you see that? do you have a -- you publicly said you have a loving relationship with your dad. you feel he respects you. and yet he does not believe you should have the same marriage rights that he has. how do you reconcile that? >> well, i mean, like i said in my video, i couldn't expect my parents to fully accept me unless i could accept them and their views. and it's been a long time in coming. but i finally realized that no matter what our differences and opinions are, we have to love and support each other. and since then, our relationship has really grown stronger. and i've watched as my dad has just really been a huge supporter of me. and yes, he doesn't support gay

marriage, but that's no reason that i shouldn't love him, or just accept him for who he is. >> do you hope he changes his position? >> i do. i hope that he changes his position. and i mean, for he, i hope to get married some day. and so i hope that i have that support. >> your mom also, you talk about this in the video, had been instrumental this writing -- been part of a committee trying to get arizona to make sure that marriage was just between a man and a woman. she knew at that time that you were gay, correct? >> yes. i was going through reparative therapy thing. >> how did that feel to know that she was writing -- because in the video you say she even asked you to help proofread some of it. >> yeah. and i was -- at the time, like i said, i was going through reparative therapy, so i was very much set on the fact that i would be straight. >> you were hoping that you would really change.

>> that was the plan, yeah. and so for me, really, it wasn't an issue. i mean, looking back, i'm glad where we've come, because we are in so much better place now. >> what do you want other young people out there, who are in similar situations you're in, maybe they've just come out to their families and their families don't support them in that sense? >> see, my big hope is that people can look at my relationship with my parents and see, oh, you know, we can have -- families can be conservative and have gay members and it doesn't have to be this huge ordeal. it doesn't have to be fight and anger and hatred. my family is a great example of that. we love each other so much. and our family, i think, is closer than it ever has been. and it doesn't change given the fact that i'm gay, or --

>> would you -- and you don't have to answer this or anything, but would you introduce your family to somebody you were seeing? >> yeah. >> and they would be okay with that? >> yeah. i believe so, yeah. >> reparative therapy is something i find really interesting. you're in medical school. you plan to be a psychiatrist yourself. what was it like for you? >> well, actually, looking back, i don't regret it. i mean, it was -- the goal was to become straight. but it turns out what i took away from it is an increased confidence. and -- >> how did it make you more confident? >> a big part of it was really teaching me to make relationships with straight men, because that would help me to kind of take on this straightness. and so it really helped me

actually learn how to talk more -- talk with men, and -- >> it helped you meet guys? i think your doctor probably right now is spitting out his coffee. going through reparative therapy actually made you more confident in meeting guys? >> yeah. and it made me more confident in my approach, yeah. >> wow. i've never heard anybody -- >> i'm grateful. >> but to be a kid and have a parent want you to go through that, was that painful at times? or was that a time that you felt you wanted to do it? >> it was my decision. i was 18 when i started. i had every right to make that decision on my own, because i wanted to change. >> one thing finally, i thought it was really important you said in the video is just how happy you are now, and how years ago, you prayed this would change. now you would not want this to change. >> no, not at all. >> you love being gay. >> i do.

if anything that people could get from this, is just to realize that you can be happy. and that it doesn't have to be this sad, difficult thing. once you accept yourself, i think that's a big part of it. and my hope is that even if i can just change the world for one person, i've managed to change the world. and to me, that's a big deal. i mean, i get a lot of flack from different people, and just for the one maybe tweet or something i get of support saying you helped me, i'm proud of who i am, that's all i care about. i can take all of the hate and everything else, just for that one. >> i'm really glad you came on the show. thank you. >> thank you. >> nice to meet you. >> nice to meet you. susan hendricks joins us. 360 follow now. fbi agents today searched the texas home of eric williams, a former kaufman county justice of the peace who was questioned

the blacks should be able to do it, too. >> reporter: others are much more blunt about their desire to maintain the tradition. >> there should be two separate proms. >> reporter: tell me why you feel that way. >> i don't think they should be black boys dancing with white girls. i don't like that. i wasn't raised that way. >> reporter: this is 2013. >> this is just my opinion. >> reporter: do you understand how that sounds very old-fashioned in the way things used to be in the united states, that everyone who goes to high school together, the idea is they should graduate together. >> they should go to school together and everything, but proms. >> reporter: you're not going to change your mind about that ever? >> no. >> reporter: the committee has received national support. in fact, the committee has its pick of a free deejay, dozens from around the country, a volunteer to provide the entertainment. many of the county's parents went to segregated proms back in their day and say it's come for this.

>> i think they were discontinued for this moment. nobody else could do this before now. >> reporter: many others in this county are supportive. >> it just makes sense to have one prom. there's no reason to separate them. >> i feel they're all classmates. if they can participate and play sports together, why not have a prom together. >> reporter: the superintendent of the school district would not go on camera. but the superintendent told us off camera the tradition of private proms is being reevaluated. and a decision about whether the school will sponsor integrated proms in the future is being considered. you're a mexican american? >> yes, sir. >> reporter: what prom are you supposed to go to? >> i guess i'm supposed to stay home and dance alone. >> reporter: but this year in wilcox county, all are welcome to show up at this prom hall. no matter what the color of your skin. >> gary tuchman joins me live. i wonder how many kids are going to go to the alternate prom.

what feedback have they received? >> they tell us they've stefd a lot of positive feedback from other students, from parents, and from teachers. they also say, though, they've received cold shoulders from some. and in the opposite end of the spectrum, they have received some vial, racist insults on their facebook feeds. anone mouse. i looked at the insults and they really are vulgar and disturbing. >> amazing what people online can do for people. are they getting a lot of rsvps for the int grade prom is this. >> they tell us that they believe their prom will have more people than the so-called white prom. the white prom, by the way, is a week from tomorrow. and the first-ever integrated prom in wilcox county is two weeks from tomorrow. >> fascinating stuff. thanks very much. up next, we'll talk about anthony bourdain's show.

that's going to interfere -- >> the word on the street is you hate food. >> yes, if i can have a shake for every meal, that would be fine with me. especially overseas, and watching your show, i realize i'm missing out on an entire side of the places that i'm visiting, because i'm not experimenting with the food. >> people are telling you a story when they give you food. and if you don't accept the food, you are in many cultures, whether rural arkansas, or vietnam, you're rejecting the people. >> coming up on this weekend's show, you travel to myanmar, formerly known as burma. that's a place i was fascinated with in my early reporting. i was back there in '91. it's really opened up in the last couple years. i haven't been there to official myanmar. what's it like? >> there's that sense that i'm sure you felt, even more intensely that, wow, i'm seeing some really incredibly beautiful things, and nobody else has seen

them. bagan is a temple complex that's impressive, and very few people have seen it. it's an incredibly beautiful country. what i found remarkable about myanmar, aside from its beauty, which is just spectacular, i've been to a lot of places 20 years after the soviets left, 30 years, and people still shy away from the camera. they still don't want to talk to you. they see a camera, it means it's a bad thing. they are -- they close up at the approach of an outsider. here, myanmar, a place where about a year ago, you're tossed in jail for consorting with foreigners. everybody was incredibly open. oh, yeah, this is the good stuff. >> what is it? >> yakotori. they're delightful little bits of chicken.

i don't know whether that's skin or not. it might be knuckly. >> it's knuckly? >> yeah, you might want to go with -- oh, wow. they really hate you, man. i love this. generally it's -- this should be good. >> couldn't we just get regular chicken? >> this is the boutique stuff. you have to come early. or they run out. i totally recommend the skin. it's crunchy and delicious. >> it is like knuckles, though. >> that is actually knuckles. >> chicken knuckles? >> yeah. well, sort of the elbow. it's got that sort of cartilage. >> i immediately grabbed this one because i thought it was regular chicken. i'll eat this. >> they do tongue here really well. i guess i'm not going to -- i tell you, it's the backbone of every street fare in the world. deep-fried food. >> what do you hope people take

away from seeing you in myanmar? >> you know, i think just to the extent that people get a window into a big part of the world, a big culture, that they were unaware of, i mean, i'm pretty modest in my ambitions or expectations. i'm not an advocate or i'm not a journalist. i'm not an activist. >> you don't see yourself as a journalist? >> i'm an enthusiast. and the extent to which people can get a sense of who we're talking about, when we talk about myanmar, that's enough for me. i've seen them eat, hang out, interact. there is value in that. >> anthony bourdain, parts unknown, april 14th, 9:00 p.m. eastern and pacific. we'll be right back.
