years. the supreme court both uphd and knocked down parts of an indiana abortion law in a new ruling out today. >> that decision comes as states around the country appear to be teg the resiliency of roe versus wade with big restrictions on thert aboion procedures. >> missouri a governor signed a so-called heartbeat bill while louisiana appears poised to do the same. >> joining us, nbc justice correspondent pete williams. let's go back to indiana and what the justices did and did not do today. what really stands out?th in s is the law passed 2016 signed by mike pence who was then the governor before he beca vice president and it did two things. first it said that abortion, the fe

fetuses had to be disposed of by medical cremation. the indiana law is based on that. it may not be a perfect fit, but it withholds scrutiny. the second part would have outlawed abortions based on the characteristics of the fetus,ia especy if it was going to have downs syndrome. the law also said you couldn't chews an abortion because you didn't want the sex of the fetus or the race of the fetus, but the supreme court today let rulings lower court that blocked enforcement of that. the supreme court said it haesn't express any view on that issue about wheth would be such a thing would be unconstitutional. it just says all the courts said today is look, we've only had one ruling from o appeals court. we like to let other appeals courts weigh in before we rule on such a b thing. so we're going to wait and see if this issue percolates through the lower courts. >> as you know, this indiana law took years to get to this point.

at what point does the supreme court have to take some of the more recentand controversial -- >> the ones we're hear being so much. >> itoesn't ever have to take them up. this is a civic lesson. e have to keep reminding ourselves, the supreme court only take the cases it wants to hear. so even if one of these roe v. wade challenges from one of the states like alabama or louisiana or mississippi reaches the supreme court, there's no guarantee the court would take the case. but if it did, it would be several years fro now. by the way, today ona the india case, the supreme court said that the opponents of thedi na law have never argued that it was ann undue burdeon a woman's right to choose. that's a very important phrase th. it's the unduerden test that is causing all the harsh abortion laws being passed to be put on hold in the lower courts it's the undue burden test

that would eventually reach the supreme court if it agrees to hear these cases.au just bec the states are passing these tough laws doesn't automatically mean the supreme court will hear them. it may want to pass for a while. >> that is something for us to be watching as it plays out over the next few years. thank you, pete. >> great to see you as always. tonight new charges against thean accused of rape in montgomery county. police tell us this man coming up here sexually assaulted women he met at a bar in chevy chase.n meagitzgerald has more on the story. >> it's any person's worst ghtmare. going out for a drink and waking up after being sexually assaulted in a stranger's bed. that's what montgomery county police say happenedo four women. 47-year-old phillip cantor slipped the date rape drug into a woman's drink. s woke up naked and feeling paralyzed in his bed. since then more women have come
