Sen. Martha McSally was "mortified" when reporting her rape to Air Force

During a hearing on sexual assault in the military earlier this week, Sen. Martha McSally revealed she had been raped by a superior officer while serving in the Air Force. The military branch has since apologized to the 26-year veteran. In her first TV interview since the freshman Arizona Republican opened up about her painful past, she tells "CBS This Morning" co-host Norah O'Donnell about the dramatic lows she says she experienced after the assault and why she's breaking her silence now.
