now to the reaction after that major ruling from the supreme court upholding a gun ban on people who are subject to a domestic violence restraining order. it marks a significant turn for the high court after more than a decade of expanding gun rights. abc's terry moran at the supreme court tonight. >> reporter: at the supreme court today, a rare victory for advocates of gun safety laws. by a vote of 8-1, the court upheld a federal law aimed at keeping guns out of the hands of domestic abusers. upholding a law that prohibits people who are subject to domestic violence restraining orders from possessing a firearm. chief justice john roberts writing for the majority, "we conclude only this. an individual found by a court to pose a credible threat to the physical safety of another may be temporarily disarmed consistent with the second amendment." the case centered on zachy ra heene, a texas drug dealer with a history of domestic abuse who was arrested after a shooting spree and charged under federal law of possessing a firearm while under a restaining order. the high court ruled that the second amendment has limits, and on this issue, it can be a matter of life or death. the statistics are clear. a woman who lives in a house with a domestic abuser is five times more likely to be murdered if that abuser has access to a gun. today, lachey craychan is lucky to be alive. the 45 mother of two was shot five times by her ex-boyfriend in front of her daughter. >> they listened to survivors. they listened to us. because it's not a day, a minute, or a second that we don't think about it. >> reporter: justice clarence thomas warned today's decision could be the start of a slippery slope and contradict a major supreme court ruling in 2022 that held that new gun laws must be consistent with this nation's historical traditions of firearms regulation. thomas writing, "not a single historical regulation justifies this statute at issue, therefore, i respectfully dissent." chief justice roberts argued today's decision was based in history in tradition, also in common sense. "since the founding, our nation's firearm laws have included provisions preventing individuals who threaten harm to others from misusing firearms." this is turning out to be a truly consequential supreme court term. today's decision shifting the court's direction on the second amendment. still to come that major abortion case out of idaho, the first test of a state abortion ban since the court overturned roe v. wade two years ago. then the biggest case of the term, donald trump's claim that because he was president, he has absolute immunity from any criminal prosecution for his actions to overturn the 2020 election. whit? >> whit: those major decisions still ahead. terry moran for us, thank you so much. next tonight, donald trump's lawyers challenging the appointment of special counsel jack smith to his classified documents case. accusing attorney general merrick garland of setting up a "shadow government" to prosecute trump because smith was not confirmed by the senate, even though that argument has been rejected in other cases. the hearing is further delaying a possible trial. new campaign reporting show former president donald trump eclipsing president joe biden's fund-raising edge. the biden-harris campaign and the democratic national committee together raised over $85 million in may, while donald trump and the republican national committee raised $141 million on a surge in contributions during trump's hush money trial and felony conviction. next thursday night on abc, you can watch the cnn presidential debate simulcast. 8:00 p.m. eastern with the abc news special "race for the white house" with david muir and the abc news political team. again, that's thursday night on abc. next here tonight, the abc news exclusive with the wife of the man electrocuted in a hot tub at a resort in mexico. she was seriously injured but survived. she's now speaking out for the first time about the painful ordeal, how she learned that her husband had died, and why she says this never should have happened. abc's matt rivers with the first story and the video of this disturbing incident. >> reporter: tonight, new details about this horrific incident last week at a mexican resort. an el paso man killed after being electrocuted in a hot tub. his wife severely injured alongside him, speaking exclusively to abc news. how strange is it to be talking about him in the past tense? >> i still can't believe it. >> reporter: zambrano and her his george guillen taking these pictures just before getting into the hot tub. moments later, pavelec shocks shooting through her body. >> the shocks were so strong and unbearable that i parade t and i said, god, i'm yours. >> reporter: then this terrifying scene. liz says she was unconscious for five minutes. this video now part of the investigation. liz pulled out of the hot tub without a pulse and later medevac'd to the hospital. she overheard nurses speaking in spanish. >> one of them says [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> reporter: what does that mean? >> "her husband didn't make it." >> reporter: she's suing the company they booked with claiming negligence and wrongful death, saying someone needs to take accountability. >> i feel that this could have been prevented. >> reporter: the lawsuit claims liz's husband was electrocuted and drowned underwater for ten minutes and that at no time prior did the defendants seek to engage the emergency shutoff. casa go is denying responsibility, saying in part the homeowners' association is responsible for all common areas and that casa go, a vacation rental company, is not involved in any management or maintenance of the resort. whit, abc news has asked the homeowners' association for comment but has not yet heard back. the lawsuit alleged all of this was caused by faulty wiring, though that is still under official investigation. >> whit: matt rivers for us, thank you. also tonight, an ook father of two arrested in turks and caicos for having bullets? his luggage will see no jail time. reign watson going home, given a one-year suspended sentence and $2,000 fine. watson is one of five americans recently arrested with bullets potentially facing a 12-year sentence. two of the americans were already spared jail time. tonight, watson is going home as well. a new delay for the return of boeing starliner spacecraft. it blasted off two weeks ago on its first crewed test mission to the space station. its return is being postponed for a fourth time. nasa says it wants more time to review test data. the mission has had trouble with thrusters and helium leaks, but the two-person crew can stay on the space station as long as necessary. when we come back, the american tourist killed by a charging elephant. what we've now learned. and the urgent search for a missing 4-year-old lost in the wilderness. the news from authorities tonight. everyone can get the best deals, like that iphone 15 on them.
