ryan owens has the latest from norman oklahoma. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: good morning, george. that is the now former frat house behind me and you see that u-haul truck, that's there because these young men must vacate by midnight by order of the president. meanwhile, there are signs this scandal is only growing. the greek letters have been stripped off the frat house this morning and the young men who once proudly wore them have been stripped of their pride. >> are you embarrassed? >> extremely. can i say anything else? >> reporter: they may not be the only ones. this morning the sorority tri delt says they're deeply disappointed and investigating their own members after this video of sigma alpha epsilon at the university of oklahoma went viral and shows sae members along with some young member chanting a racial slur. >> from a tree -- >> that's something that's been rehearsed and well known. everybody on that bus was singing this chant proudly and

confidently. >> reporter: some students tell abc news the chant is part of this fraternity's national legacy. they boast 15,000 members and they deny that and immediately closed the uo chapter. >> it's not sanctioned endorsed or otherwise a national song. this dark cloud is hanging over the organization and it's sad because this is absolutely not what sae is about. >> reporter: the university president says any students identified on the tape may be expelled. >> i think it's time for all of us all across america to step up and show zero tolerance when we're dealing with racist. >> reporter: the outrage reverberating outside campus. this football recruit who committed to play there says not now. but closing down an entire house based on the actions of a few freshmen seems like an overreaction to some. including the fraternity's african-american cook who finds himself out of a job. he's had it for 14 years.

>> outrageous. i think it's outrageous. >> reporter: also this morning, we have a new statement from the national chapter. they say they are now investigating other similar incidents on other campuses. robin. >> all right, ryan thank you. now that secret government testing to take down drones. the secret service is conducting mysterious flights in the middle of the night looking for ways to knock them out of the sky. abc's pierre thomas is in washington with the latest on all that for us. good morning pierre. >> reporter: good morning, robin. as you know drones have been showing up everywhere and a recent white house incurse by a drone made it clear they could be a potential threat so now the secret service is taking action. the secret service is launching a series of overnight training exercises to cope with the growing new threat of drones. the testing which would be conducted in the wee overnight hours involves using a number of methods to take drones out of the sky including technology that would turn them off. the concerns intensified a few

weeks ago when this drone penetrated the white house perimeter and crashed on to the north lawn. sources say drones are potential threats for carrying explosives but also to spy on white house activities. in a recent exclusive interview with the new secret service director he made it clear to me that the recent drone events have gotten everyone's attention including the president of the united states. >> and i personally briefed the president on the events of that day and he had very specific questions and was very concerned as he should be. technology changes and we're working with the private industry as well that those that are producing these drones and it's a global issue. >> reporter: science fiction is coming to real life and the secret service is having to respond. george. >> okay pierre thanks. also in washington the white house hitting back hard at republican senators who wrote directly to iranian leaders warning them a nuclear deal would not last. abc's jon karl is at the white house and, jon, the president said these authorities are making common cause with iranian hard-liners and the vice president went further and

stopped just short of calling it treason. >> reporter: he called it dangerous saying it's beneath the dignity of the congress to try to undermine the president as he conducts foreign policy. i spoke to one of the primary authors of the letter, he is defending it. here's what he had to say. >> isn't it the job of the president of the united states to negotiate with foreign governments. >> it's the presidentjob to negotiate but us to approve. >> reporter: you are going in and trying to insert yourself on negotiations between the president and a foreign government. >> we're simply trying to say that congress has a constitutional role to approve any deal to make sure that iran never gets a nuclear weapon. >> reporter: the iranians have also responded via twitter of all things. the foreign minister saying "it seems that the authors not only do not understand international law but are not fully cognizant of the nuances of their own constitution when it comes to the presidential powers in the conduct of foreign policy." so, george the iranians it seems leaks at this republican

letter as basically the same way as the president does. >> one of the white house is concerned about if it fall as part the u.s. could get more of the blame. >> reporter: that's exactly right and you can believe that the white house will point the finger right at congress for undermining these talks if they do go down. >> jon karl thanks very much. now to the boston marathon bombing trial. terrifying new video was played in court on monday as more victims delivered emotional testimony as we learn how little emotions dzhokhar tsarnaev displayed right after he launched the attack. abc's tom llamas is covering the trial for us in boston. good morning, tom. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. the defense is trying to paint dzhokhar tsarnaev as a misguided youth who was just following the footsteps of his older brother but prosecutors say the video you're about to see shows a cold-blooded killer someone who had no regard for the innocent men, women, even children in his path of terror because he was stands right next to them. the video is chilling.

alleged boston marathon bomber dzhokhar tsarnaev caught on tape launching his attack. watch this newly released video played in court on monday tsarnaev in the white hat appears to pick a spot in the crowd, slips off his backpack believed to be holding the pressure cooker bomb lingers, uses his cell phone, then seconds later at 2:49 p.m. the first bomb goes off, the crowd suddenly looks left. he starts to walk away. seconds after that his bomb goes off. a fireball erupting into the camera. prosecutors also playing this new video from a nearby whole foods showing the then 19-year-old casually strolling into the store less than 15 minutes after the bombings heading to the dairy section buying a half gallon of milk before walking out and driving away. this calm scene playing out while chaos was unfolding back at the marathon finish line. jurors also seen these new images and hearing from witnesses like jessica kenski

testifying from her wheelchair monday saying she was so in shock after the blast she was un unaware of what was happening until someone screamed ma'am, you're on fire. jurors also hearing from one of the heros from that day, matthew patterson, a critical care paramedic who was off duty during the bombings but jumped into action saving the life of 6-year-old jane richard who lost a leg and her older brother, martin in the attack. >> i testified because i believe that jane jane's voice needs to be heard and the damage that was done to her physically emotionally and for the rest of her life. >> reporter: tsarnaev in court for the testimonies slouching in his chair appearing uninterested. he's pleaded not guilty to 30 counts against him including murder and the use of a weapon of mass destruction. and though he used his personal twitter account to quote rappers like jay z and eminem prosecutor prosecutors reveal he had another twitter account under an

alias where he quoted anwar al awlaki a radical muslim cleric also a member of al qaeda. george. >> thanks very much. we turn to another major train accident the third in a month. this one in north carolina. where an amtrak train collided with i tractor trailer injuring dozens. abc's david kerley is in halifax, north carolina, with the latest. good morning david. >> reporter: good morning, george. that is the cargo of prefabricated structures on a truck that got stuck on the track. it's off the tracks. the amtrak cars are gone. the crossing is re-opened. but serious questions remain this morning. another driver saw it coming. >> oh, my god. oh, my god! an amtrak train slamming that a tractor trailer and its tarp covered cargo. >> engine on the side tore to pieces back car and the first coach on the ground. >> reporter: on board 230 people the 911 calls pour in. >> amtrak is derailed. oh my god. >> reporter: the engine and two

how long that truck was stuck on the tracks. witnesses say 15 to 20 minutes, the state patrol says it was just a matter of minutes of there is a sign that says if there is an emergency call. no call was made george. >> oh that's surprising okay david, thanks very much. to amy. another security scare at laguardia airport. >> the details are just coming in. new york city police have arrested a man they say pointed a laser at aircraft taking off and landing at laguardia airport. this is the laser officers recovered. three piles suffered eye injuries including two officers flying a police helicopter. laser attacks are growing problems with nearly 4,000 reported last year alone. the fbi has set up a special task force to investigate them. also breaking overnight two olympic medalists among the victims of a deadly crash during the filming of a reality show on these two helicopters that apparently collided in argentina while taping a popular european tv show. two pilots and eight passengers were killed including camille

>> i just kind of think of things i can get better at to kind of help that process when i'm done. >> reporter: these days he's homebound with his wife and three kids playing a different game. but primed for that bigger arena. for "good morning america," matt gutman abc news miami. >> well bosh obviously had the right attitude. now, outlook is good for him. he's expected to resume full basketball activity this september. it could be ready for the start of the next season. >> right attitude about it. >> sure does. >> don't count him out. he is so tenacious. >> but what a beautiful family. >> oh yeah. >> good luck to him. ginger right now. okay, warm weather coming. creighing some dangerous conditions. >> that's right. this represents spring as of now in boston. look at that. george, you see the windshields in a parking lot, several of them smashed. chunks of ice were falling off a building and that's what resulted. so kind of comes along with a few things including the warming temperatures. this is the part i think you'd like to see. new york by wednesday closing in on 60.

back at 7:41 with a strange case of robert durst. heir to a real estate fortune he's been linked to three deaths dating back to the '80s but never been convicted even after admitting in court that he killed a neighbor dismembered the body but now police have re-opened the investigation into one of those killings thanks to a new hbo documentary called "the jinx" in which durst goes on camera to tell his side of the story. here's abc's ryan smith. >> reporter: he's the eccentric real estate sky yon who made national headlines rasz a suspect in three deaths since 1982 cross-dressing and skipping bail along the way. he was arrested for the murder of a neighbor in galveston, texas, in 2001. claiming self-defense he was

acquitted. >> the jury finds the defendant robert durst not guilty. >> reporter: his story now profiled in the current hbo documentary series "the jinx." >> did not tell the whole truth. nobody tells the whole truth. >> reporter: but as robert durst now jinxed himself? abc news learning the 71-year-old now facing a re-opened investigation in los angeles into the 2000 murder of his former friend susan berman. an investigation that could be bolstered by the show itself. like this never before seen letter that berman's stepson says durst sent to her a year before her death. >> it was clear enough i might be dancing with the devil. >> reporter: he says it appears eerily similar to an anonymous note sent to police the day berman died. a letter authorities say only berman's killer could have written. >> the address written on the front is exactly like the cadaver note found with the misspelling the beverly. >> reporter: durst denies

killing berman. >> i had nothing to do with susan berman and death. >> reporter: police long believe he had a motive allegedly wanting to silence her on a crime he's never been charged with the disappearance of his first wife kathleen now declared dead. durst says he has no idea what happened to him.

friend to cover up the 1982 murder and then charged in 2001 in the case that he of course was acquitted in. so the fact that he even cooperated in this is astounding and so it's not that surprising to me that now that they have durst on camera and they have renewed attention to this case that they've got themselves some new evidence and robert durst could find himself in some big trouble. >> got that letter where the handwriting may match. >> absolutely and that becomes a crucial piece of evidence. i mean they've been lacking that one thing to link him. they've always suspected it. they felt it in their guts. they said to themself wait a second. how could it be anything else? if they can link that letter back to durst, they've got a crucial piece of evidence. now, the problem here is that handwriting analysis tends to be as much art as it is science. and so you can certainly get someone on the other side to say, yes, well these things do look similar and the misspelling

is similar. there are other reasons to question. >> just real quickly he can be tried again -- he can be tried for the killing of the wife's disappearance or the friend but not tried again -- >> any case where he hasn't already been tried they could charge him for. you can't retry him on the case where he was acquitted. >> dan abrams thanks very much. final episode of "the jinx: the life and deaths of robert durst" is on sunday on hbo. coming up new details about the apple watch. could it really replace your phone? plus we all know this willy wonka and the chocolate factory character. ba iraq ka a new study that says what you could be doing could turn your child into a narcissist.
