campaigning in the bronx and getting a rough welcome. >> there's no business being in the bronx. this is an immigrant community. >> reporter: but the texas senator maintains he can hurt trump in new york by highlighting the billionaire's new york values. >> people of new york know exactly what those values are. they're the values of liberal democratic politicians like andrew cuomo, like anthony weiner, like eliot spitzer, like charlie rangel, all of whom donald trump has supported. >> reporter: and as cruz an even john kasich keep campaigning this week trump must be feeling confident. we're told he's taking the rest of the week off back at it on sunday. george. >> okay, tom, thanks very much. you saw that restaurant in the bronx. where ted cruz got a raucous welcome. i sat down with him there and pressed him on whether that wisconsin win he had was a turning point in the race. donald trump still far ahead in delegates with a big lead here in new york. >> we've won now four states in a row, the last two weeks, the

victory in wisconsin was across the board. it was a 13-point victory, and three weeks ago we were behind by ten points. >> even if you do well going forward you're still likely to be behind him in delegates and most of the voters last night said they want whoever is ahead to get the nomination. >> there is only one way to get the nomination, you earn a majority of the votes. donald trump has not been able to earn a majority of votes just about anywhere and that's his problem. he wants to change the rules so he doesn't have to get a majority. if we get to a convention and no one has gotten 1,237 delegates, i'll come in with a ton of delegates. he'll come in with a ton of delegates and it'll be up to the delegates to decide who will get the majority. >> very different here from wisconsin. you know, you saw that protester when he came in saying we don't want someone anti-immigrant there. >> if you're an anti-immigrant, you're not welcome here. >> you know both you and donald trump are in a deep hole right now with latinos. how do you turn it around?

7:09 am
he told "the wall street journal" can't imagine any new yorker voting for you. ted cruz doesn't care about new yorkers. he doesn't like new yorkers. he's mocking new yorkers. >> you know, i think most people know exactly what new york values are. >> let me be very clear. the people that i was talking about are the liberal new york democrats who have hammered this state. it is people like mayor bill de blasio and governor cuomo. >> donald trump you're saying. >> who has funded them all. >> no regrets for hitting new york values. you don't think it's going to hurt you. >> just a minute ago we were meeting with hispanic pastors. a democratic state senator said i know exactly what you're talking about and we can't stand it. >> "the new york times," story about a real estate lawsuit that donald had to settle. his organization had to settle. you talked about his business record in the past. will you put his business record on the ballot here in new york?
7:10 am
>> listen, republicans, we want to win. we want to beat hillary. the last thing we want is to nominate someone like donald trump who over and over again as allegations of fraud against him, has litigation. last thing we want to do is nominate someone on the witness stand in october and november as much as hillary clinton. >> this was settled. >> but yet the trump university litigation that he defrauded thousands of people with a fake university took their money, scammed them. that is scheduled to go to trial this summer. >> final question, a lot more americans will get to see you right now. what is the biggest misconception about you, you want to clear up? >> listen, the media does everything they can to paint any republican as mean and scary and nasty. i'm the son of an immigrant who washed dishes and came to america with nothing. i'm the son of an irish-italian mom the first in her family to go to college. the people i'm fighting for are the people working in this restaurant.
7:11 am
i'm fighting for the people who have been left behind and we are seeing this coalition come together. we are seeing unity in the republican party but not just among republicans, every day i encounter democrats who say i voted for barack obama, but i'm with you. what we're doing now isn't working. >> senator, good to see you. >> good to see you, george. >> okay. >> a big moment for ted cruz. he makes the cover of "time" magazine this morning out in colorado trying to pick up delegates this weekend but still far behind, amy, in new york. latest poll shows donald trump above 50%. >> a resounding lead and things are heating up on the democratic side, as well. hillary clinton attacking bernie sanders trying to put her loss in wisconsin behind her now saying she's not even sure sanders is a democrat. abc's jon karl has the latest in washington. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, amy. at this point hillary clinton was hoping that she would be taking on republicans but with bernie sanders once again on a
7:12 am
roll, she is aiming her fire at a democratic rival who just won't go away. bernie sanders is on a hot streak at a rally overnight in philadelphia, firing off at hillary clinton. >> she has been saying lately that she thinks that i am, quote/unquote, not qualified to be president. i don't believe that she is qualified if she is through her super pac taking tens of millions of dollars in special interest funds. >> reporter: but hillary clinton still the clear front-runner was fighting hard to close the deal. questioning whether sanders has plans that will actually work. >> on a number of important areas he doesn't have a plan at all. >> reporter: at another campaign stop in philadelphia, clinton even mocked sanders' style at the podium. >> i think if i'm asking you to vote for me you should know what i want to do and not just, you know, lots of arm waving and hot
7:13 am
rhetoric. >> reporter: the clinton campaign has pounced on a shaky interview sanders gave to "the new york daily news." the senator stumbled when asked how he'd break up the big banks. one of his signature campaign promises. >> do you think that the fed now has that authority? >> i don't know if the fed has it but i think that the administration can have it. >> talking for more than a year doing things that he obviously hadn't really studied or understood and that does raise a lot of questions. >> reporter: clinton even questioned whether sanders who for decades called himself an independent is truly a democrat. >> he's a relatively new democrat and, in fact, i'm not even sure he is one. he's running as one. so i don't know quite how to characterize him. >> reporter: now the clinton campaign is demanding that bernie sanders take back his words but the sanders campaign is saying hillary clinton is just nervous and, george, they are vowing to fight all the way to the democratic convention
7:14 am
with all the insults flying back and forth and now the talk of a fight at the democratic convention, it almost seems like the democrats are trying to sound a little like the republicans. >> yeah, we could have some summer. we turn to that united airlines flight forced to turn around after the pilots realized they didn't have enough fuel. there are questions about how this could happen and abc's david kerley has the details. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, george. all apologies to ginger zee. it was the weather forecast, the pilots expected one thing, they got something entirely different. it was this boeing 777 nearly halfway across the pacific that returned to hawaii four hours in the air ending up right where they started from. >> united 724, cleared visual approach. >> cleared for visual for united 724. >> reporter: the passengers hoping to be in california spending another night on the islands. >> we're safe. we didn't get hurt so that's the most important thing but it's a little frustrating at this point. >> reporter: the sunday flight
7:15 am
to san francisco was about two hours east of hawaii when the pilots realized they're in a condition known as overburn, too much fuel being burned. >> even though it can inconvenience passengers and crew when you get down to too low of fuel and too much fuel burn, there's only one thing to do and that's turn around. >> reporter: why? the weather. the forecast, the pilots told the passengers was wrong. they were hoping that the winds would be helping them. >> they're like, oh, we predicted the wrong type of wind. we were predicting that we were going to have stronger tailwind and now we have all this stronger head wind. >> reporter: it is rare but the rules for reserve fuel at landing are strict. >> doesn't mean you'll run out but it means you're not going to be legal. that's when you have to turn around. >> reporter: and that's what they did. they turned around, went to hawaii. they went to san francisco the next day. the passengers all got there. united airlines says they did this out of an abundance of caution, george. >> better than the alternative. david, thanks very much. now lara is back. we got this disturbing video out
7:16 am
of san antonio. >> disturbing is the right word. an investigation under way this morning after a new video emerges showing a san antonio school officer slamming a 12-year-old girl to the ground. abc's eva pilgrim is here with the latest. good morning, eva. >> reporter: good morning, lara. the middle school student was suspended for two days for what happened that day. the officer saying she tried to kick him but this morning the student saying no. she didn't see him coming and we have to warn you this video is hard to watch. this video of a san antonio school officer slamming a middle school student to the ground causing outrage. watch again. the video shows rhodes middle school officer joshua kehm. students all around with his arms around her. you see him pick her up and then throw her face down. >> are you okay? >> reporter: this morning that officer is under investigation for using excessive force after the video taken in march was posted to youtube this photo.
7:17 am
week. >> she landed on her face. >> right here it was a bigger bump the first day, but i mean it got down, but it's still bruised. >> reporter: with a bruise still visible over her eye valdez admits she was arguing with another female student, but says that's it. >> i was upset. i was angry. i still couldn't believe that he had done that to her and then she told me, mom, i wasn't fighting. why did he do that? >> reporter: school officials are now investigating saying they learned about the incident after it was posted online. >> we will not tolerate excessive force in this district but i can also say that we need to find out all the details as to what occurred. the video is very concerning. >> she is my daughter and i just want justice for her. >> reporter: this officer has been with the school police force for a little over year. he was placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation and still a lot of questions about what was going on before that video was shot. >> that is still so hard to
7:18 am

7:31 am
excitement needless to say for "star wars" fans. we've got a world exclusive for you. this is the trailer for the brand-new chapter in the story, a group of unlikely heroes and the events that started it all. >> you're seeing us because you can't see it. >> we cannot wait for this. >> just imagine. >> this is all about the events that took place before we met chewy, luke, leia and this trailer will take your breath away. all coming up here. >> we have new developments in the dentist murder mystery, the fbi searching for this woman now on america's most wanted list accused of arranging the murder of her ex's new girlfriend who was a popular dentist. linsey davis has the latest. >> reporter: brenda delgado is the only woman on the fbi's ten most wanted list. they've arrested two people believed to be involved, the alleged hit man and getaway driver and they're working with authorities in mexico to try to capture delgado. this morning, brenda delgado, a
7:32 am
woman depicted by police as a lover scorned is now in on the fbi's ten most wanted list believed to be armed and dangerous and on the run. accused of masterminding the murder of her ex-boyfriend's girlfriend dallas dentist dr. kendra hatcher. >> delgado's addition to the list underscores the violent and calculated nature of the crime she's accused of committing. >> reporter: hatcher's family was in tears wednesday listening as the fbi offered $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the 33-year-old. authorities say she hired a hit man paying him $500 to shoot hatcher in the parking garage of her luxury dallas high-rise last september. the fbi describes delgado as a jilted woman who was jealous of hatcher because she was dating her dermatologist ex-boyfriend and had just been introduc to his parents. >> what is left to do is to bring her to justice and hav her answer for this crime that shocked our community. >> one female is possibly shot in the neck. >> reporter: search warrants
7:33 am
obtained by abc news claim delgado stalked her using an iphone to track her movements the night of the murder and would only pay the hit man seen in this surveillance video if he brought her hatcher's driver's license as proof of death. delgado was questioned days after the murder but police say they didn't have enough evidence to charge her with a crime. the fbi believes she may now be hiding in mexico where she has family. according to the capital murder indictment, delgado and a drug cartel gave the shooter drugs and money in exchange for killing hatcher. >> okay, linsey, thanks very much. more on this from former fbi special agent brad garrett. brad, thank you for joining us. we heard she may be in mexico so what kind of tools does the fbi have to track her down? >> cell phones, previous associations and locations, george. fugitives tend to go where they can function, where they can be supported, have money, et cetera. so my guess is they probably already have drawn a beat on
7:34 am
her. >> will it be tough to get her back? >> well, probably not. here's the real catch. mexico may not extradite her if, in fact, she will face capital murder. that's going to be the big hangup. the prosecutor has said she may not pursue the death penalty, but that's going to have to be worked out. >> because mexico is against the death penalty but it is exceptionally unusual for a woman to be on the fbi's most wanted list. >> this ninth woman since 1950 but think about it this way, george. women now are committing more violent acts. they're becoming part of the mainstream, if you will, of violent crime and, unfortunately, miss delgado i think fits that profile. >> brad, thanks very much. and now to those stunning comments caught on tape by a houston woman who says she secretly recorded a doctor and staff during her surgery. now, in these recordings you hear remarks about her looks and her personality and abc's gio benitez has the story. >> reporter: listen carefully because few ever hear this. >> she's a handful.

7:36 am
>> that just doesn't seem like the thing to say to the person that's going to do your surgery. >> reporter: harris health care says it has alerted staff to be mindful of comments at all times but they say no further action is being taken. >> round and round we go wheel of annoying patients we go. >> reporter: in a separate incident a virginia anesthesiologist is paying the price after a man going in for a routine colonoscopy left his iphone recording during the procedure capturing this while knocked out. >> really after five minutes of talking to you in preop i wanted to punch you in the face and man you up a little. >> reporter: a judge ruling the doctor in that case needs to pay $500,000. and in this new case the hospital tells us it won't comment because of patient privacy laws. easter is considering a lawsuit but she says she wants doctors to just stop speaking this way about patients in operating rooms. >> anyone who's gone under probably has wondered but, wow, that's stunning audio. thank you very much, gio. coming up next, calling out the church of scientology.

7:38 am
call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made switching to eliquis right for me. ask your doctor if it's right for you. lowe's oanyone can haveee a beautiful garden. finally, something in this yard as beautiful as me. enjoy. now get perennials, 3 for $10, at lowe's. the whole day to sell to the their old cart aside and buy a new one...

with those who are antagonistic to the church which says that the choice to disconnect is entirely voluntary. your daughter is 38 and your son is 42. >> right. >> they're adults and have free will and could reach out to their parents if they chose. >> you would think that but that's not necessarily the case in scientology. >> reporter: in a statement the church says it is despicable that these individuals would use a private family matter to promote anti-religious hate and bigotry. they say you're promoting anti-religious hate and bigotry. >> no. >> our whole message is not about their beliefs, it's just about reconnecting families. >> right. >> and ending the disconnection which is an abuse of families, we believe. >> reporter: they say they have little to hold on to and fear retribution from the church but add what they fear more is losing their children forever. >> i don't know if the billboard is going to do anything, but it's another step. these are our kids. we want them in our lives. >> reporter: yeah, the church of

this? >> i really don't. i mean i think we talk so much about the glory days of the '70s and '80s when kids were roaming free but statistically they're safer now than they were there. >> even at crime scenes? >> well, the police are at the crime scene. right? i'm not too worried. it's not like she was inside the house. >> hilde, what do you say to all those people who say you shouldn't be doing it because you're 9 and it's too graphic a subject for you to be covering and it's not appropriate? >> well, i mean if you don't like my papers, nobody is forcing you to read it. >> that's a really good response, and i also understand, and i felt a little bit of your passion about this when people suggested that you should be playing with dolls and tea sets. did you take that personally as a sexist comment? >> no. i didn't. i mean, it annoyed me that just because i'm a girl and just because i'm 9 doesn't mean i can't like be a reporter. >> i agree, so tell me what you want to do with this because you actually have a lot of followers and, by the way, i should mention you beat your

8:16 am
they have used on the app. >> reporter: "vanity fair" writer emily jane fox was among the first to try out swipebuster. she and her colleagues found it to be 99% accurate. >> we searched a number of people who we knew were active tinder users in a variety of cities. with the exception of about one very common name in new york city, every single person you're looking for turned up. >> reporter: according to some reports, a large number of tinder users are already in relationships, but tinder disputes this saying just 2% of its users are married. as for its response to swipebuster, tinder says the new website is simply tapping into and consolidating public information, that tinder's own website makes clear is already available to fellow tinder users adding, "no private user information is being made public." jenny says she thinks swipebuster is a good idea. she's taking a break from love right now, and when she does date again, she says she's going to make sure any new boyfriends
8:17 am
put their swiping days behind them. >> if they still have tinder on their phone, then you're still looking. >> now, interestingly enough the founder of swipebuster wants to remain anonymous. we asked him questions through "vanity fair." he says the response to swipebusters is explosive and that people are thanking him left and right, but he says the main goal wasn't to bust cheaters, but to alert the public that tinder information and the internet in general may not be as private as you think. >> so that was just -- the bust was a bonus. okay. >> exactly. >> thank you, juju. you know, we asked "gma" followers on twitter would you consider it cheating if your partner went on tinder and you said yes by a very large margin and joining us now is anya syrtash, author of "cheat on your husband with your husband." i love the title. >> thank you. >> you saw most of our viewers think it's cheating even if you just go to the site and never follow through. >> i agree with them. it's definitely crossing a line. you're on a dating site. it's not a job site. so it begs the question, what is
8:18 am
this person doing there? he or she has to upload a photo, fill out a profile. there's something going on. >> so you have a problem before you even go to swipebuster if you're even thinking about it. >> absolutely. if you have to pay for an app to check if your partner is cheating, you have a bigger issue at hand. there is a trust issue. >> so you think -- how do you confront that then? what is the best way to go about it before you buy an app like this or go on a site like this? >> well, before you buy the app, you need to check in with yourself and ask why do i think this? why do i have this suspicion? usually with e-cheating there are a few clues so if you're walking in and your partner is constantly closing every tab on the computer and being secretive about digital behavior, you may want to pay attention to that. >> that would make a lot of sense. do you think, though, the existence of a site like this may make people think twice? >> i do. sometimes people cheating may think they're invincible and this site reminds them maybe to think before they post on a dating site.
