Libya’s ex-justice minister Mustafa Abdel Jalil says he has “proof” that Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi personally ordered the 1988 Lockerbie plane bombing that killed 270 people over Lockerbie, Scotland.

The man convicted of the bombing was released from prison for health reasons in 2009 and received a hero’s welcome back home in Libya, but victims’ families have long believed Gadhafi ordered the attack.

We speak with Rabbi Stephanie Bernstein, whose husband was on Pan Am Flight 103.
