Illinois teen faces felony charge for recording principals without consent

A 13-year-old boy faces a felony charge in Illinois for recording a conversation with his school principals without their consent. His state has one of the strictest eavesdropping laws in the country. He says he recorded the conversation when he was asked to explain why he wasn't showing up for detention. CBS News legal analyst Rikki Klieman joins “CBS This Morning” to discuss why the boy has a good defense and the question of whether there was a reasonable expectation of privacy where the conversation took place.
