unshakeable? >> well, you will have to ask them, scott. because i do not believe his views or his rhetoric will find that favorable an audience in the general el because i think that as i said last week in san diego, what he has already said, both words and deeds, disqualifies him from being president. and i have more votes than he does. so i think i have a good solid foundation to start from. >> but it is possible that your biggest obstacle is your not your opponent but yourself. 52% of the american people who participated in our cbs news poll have an unfavorable opinion of you. that is the highest negative impression of any one ever nominated by the democratic party since we started asking that question in 1984. do you bear any responsibility for that? >> i'm sure i do. but i think when i was secretary of state and serving our country i had an approval rating of 66%. i think it's fair to ask well what's happened? and what's happened is tens of millions of dollars of negative advertisind has been sent my way. i understand that. and i know that it's up to me to take this base that i have built and expand it by reaching out to senator sanders' supporters, to many others across our country. including, i hope republicans and independents. >> do you think we will look back on your choice of a runningmate as conventional or unconventional? >> i don't know because i have no idea yet. i am looking broadly and widely. and i am going to begin to really, you know, dive in to thinking hard about this. so i am going to be looking first and foremost as to who i believe could fulfill the responsibilities of being president and commander-in-chief. >> there is more in this interview. you can see the interview with secretary clinton on our 24 hour digital news service, cbsn. despite clinching the nomination, clinton is still being pursued by the zombie candidacy of bernie sanders. republicans for their part rolled out a new donald trump last night. trump 2.0. nancy cordes and chip reid are with us. nancy, sanders declines to be defeted. >> that's right, scott. half a dozen lawmakers on capitol hill who are backing him. and even they aren't quite sure what his timet they don't expect that he will drop out of the race before the d.c. primary, the final primary on the calendar next tuesday. they acknowledge clinton is the presumptive nominee and say he should do the same sooner rather than later. here's what's going on? sanders wants assurances from the clinton campaign and party that they won't turn the backs on his progressive agenda the minute he gets out of the race. the two campaigns are in negotiations. he is sitting down with the president at the white house tomorrow. and scott, every democrat i spoke to up here today is willing to give him a wide berth. because they need his nearly 12 million voters, not to mention his record breaking donor base as well. >> nancy, thank you. >> chip reid, the party shackled trump to a teleprompter last night. >> that's right, scott. in a speech last night he was almost unrecognizable. he was calm, thoughtful and yes he read from a teleprompter. just like the conventional politicians he usually rails against. he promised the republican party he will never let them down. just hours before that, leading republicans were denouncing him as unamerican, even racist, for accusing a federal judge of mexican descent of being biased against him. today that torrent of criticism, mostly subsided though there were some harsh words. trump supporter newt gingrich said trump "made a really stupid mistake in criticizing the judge." trump promised to stop talking about the judge but sent a wave of nervousness through the republican party when he promptly ignored that promise and discussed it in three separate interviews. >> chip reid, nancy cordes for us tonight.f thank you both. ♪ has been my life long mission for almost 40 years. nutrition is the hallmark of good health and pairing nutrition

worldwide attention this week. we have been telling you about it on this broadcast. it happened especially after the judge gave a light sentence to the attacker. a star swimmer at stanford university. well, tonight we are learning more. we learned what the attacker had to say to the judge. and here its john blackstone. >> before brock turner was sentenced on three counts of sexual assault he pleaded with the judge not to be sent to prison and he apologized for his actions. i wish i could just take it back. i can't believe i imposed such suffering on the victim. and i am so sorry. but in the letter obtained by cbs news, turner fails to take full responsibility. instead, blaming the party culture i briefly experienceden my four months at school. at stanford, drinking alcohol he wrote, became what i expected when spending saturday with friends. in spite of being found guilty. turner insists what happened that night was consensual. at no time did it ever occur to me that she was too drun tubing know what we were doing. the victim's own letter to the judge condemns turn ear's refusal. some one who cannot take full accountability for his actions does not deserve a mitigating sentence she wrote. judge aaron persky's controversial sentence of six months in county jail was based, the judge said, on turner's youth and lack of prior offenses. the judge also received 39 letters of support. a high school teacher wrote, i would completely trust brock turner with my daughter. law professor evan lee expert in sentencing guidelines expected a much more severe sentence. >> maybe three years, if you take into account the lack of -- record, maybe, if you take into account the intoxication. but, six months is -- really -- shocking. >> reporter: turner has begun serving his sentence. in a letter to the judge his family asked he be transferred closer to his home in ohio. with time off with good behavior, scott here, could be release as early as september. >> john blackstone reporting for us. thank you. tonight cbs news exposes an insurance scam. and it turns out you, the taxpayer, are the victim. it seems especially egregious because members of the u.s.

was where we were invited by dustin warren, a salesman working with a lab that conducts genetic t drug screenings. we recorded the meeting undercover. >> the opportunity is absolutely there. >> warren gave us a test of the hardball pitch he uses to get doctors to order the tests. >> if you're not doing this you're a pile of [ bleep ]. you don't care about people. you don't care about cancer. and you don't care about your patients, bottom line. >> with the right context, we could expect to make big money. >> 60 [ bleep ] grand a month. thanks to genetic tests that assess cancer risk. he said military insurance, tricare reimburses the most for a single test. >> we were banging them for $12,000 to $16,000 grand, we dialed it back to $#,000 because we're look we're going to get [ bleep ].

people. it was full. >> reporter: linda boseman, wife of a soldier, told us she visited the clinic to make extra money for christmas presents. awe they just said they had this clinical research going. and that they paid you by wal-mart cards so that you would give your urine. >> reporter: it wasn't for documents show cockerell dermapathology, used her samples to bill tricare, 41 times, unneeded

little while before setting up shop at a more professional looking site. a couple month as go they moved down the road to this location. from the looks of things they're no longer in business here either. but we found plenty of evidence in the trash they had been. soldiers social security numbers, medical information, dna specimens, and more than 60 photo copies of military ids. including linda boseman's. which left us with a lot of questions for cockerell dermatpathology and its owner, dr. clay cockerell. >> i have run it well over 20 years. >> reporter: our producer caught up with him outside the lab. >> there is a genetic testing lab. >> that's not my lab laboratory. >> it is your lab. they're using your contracts. but you are -- >> they're using your contracts and your license, sir. >> and with that dr. cockerell was off declining to answer any more questions on camera. in a written statement, representatives of cockerell dermapathology confirmed it is his lab. they also said -- and quote, there is a possibility that individuals were operating outside of the organization's strict compliance requirements. the lab says it has voluntary refunding what it calls significant amounts of money. but wouldn't say how much or to whom. we asked the pentagon if it is investigating and they told us, scott, they can't discuss it. >> great investigative reporting by you
