Iran | Under Siege | Breaking the Cycle

Iran – After a surprise joint attack by U.S. and Israeli military forces on Iran killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, correspondent Scott Pelley interviews Reza Pahlavi, a leader of the Iranian opposition to the Islamic Republic and the son of the late deposed Shah of Iran. Pelley reports on this pivotal moment for Iran's leadership, whether regime change is coming, who leads a future transition, and what happens to Iran's nuclear weapons. Maria Gavrilovic, Nicole Young, and Michael Karzis are the producers.

Under Siege – Federal judges are under threat as never before. A 60 MINUTES investigation found that judges who have ruled against the Trump administration have become top targets. 60 MINUTES spoke with 26 federal judges – 9 Democratic appointees and 17 Republican, both sitting and retired. As Bill Whitaker reports, the sitting judges tell 60 MINUTES they feel under siege – and fear for their safety and for the future of the country. Heather Abbott is the producer.

Breaking the Cycle – For the past two weeks, the father of an accused mass shooter has been on trial in Barrow County, Georgia. Prosecutors there say he ignored glaring red flags before his teenage son shot up Apalachee High - a tragedy that left 4 dead. This is not the first time the parent has been put on trial. Sharyn Alfonsi reports on an earlier, precedent-setting case from Oxford, Michigan, where both the school shooter and his parents now sit behind bars, raising the question: Will holding parents accountable help break the cycle of school shootings in America? Ashley Velie is the producer.
