1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:13.439
Calarugus Shark Media. Good morning, I'm Reed Carter. Thursday, January fifteenth,

2
00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:18.800
twenty twenty six. December twenty twenty a wedding ceremony, the

3
00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:21.480
bride tells her groom, I had quite a journey to

4
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:25.559
get to you, countless bad bumble dates, wrong relationships, and

5
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:30.800
waterfalls of tears. She calls him her lobster, her best friend,

6
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:35.320
the love of her life. December twenty twenty five, that

7
00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:37.799
bride and her husband are found shot to death in

8
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:41.960
their Columbus, Ohio home. Their two children, ages one and four,

9
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:46.600
left alive in the house no forced entry. The suspect

10
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.759
her ex husband, a vascular surgeon. They divorced eight years

11
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:56.159
ago after just seven months of marriage. He'd been disappeared

12
00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:00.000
for months, dodging process servers trying to serve him an

13
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.239
malpractice lawsuit. Then he allegedly drove three hundred miles to

14
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:09.680
execute her and her new husband. Forensic psychologists call it calculated,

15
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:16.560
cold blooded, reptilian, an eight year grudge waiting planning. Then

16
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:21.079
if I can't have it, nobody can. Day six of

17
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:24.640
the Uvalde trial, an off duty officer testifies he was

18
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:27.719
the one who actually breached the classroom, used a master key,

19
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:31.519
fired the shot that killed the shooter while the defendant,

20
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:35.560
officer Adrian Gonzales, waited in the hallway with only a

21
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:40.319
handgun and three magazines. And Keefer Sutherland, star of twenty four,

22
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:45.640
arrested for allegedly assaulting a ride share driver on Sunset Boulevard. Felony,

23
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:50.239
criminal threats. Released on fifty thousand dollars bond. I'm read

24
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:54.680
Carter today. A surgeon's revenge, an officer who actually acted,

25
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.319
and a TV star's latest run in with the law.

26
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:06.680
This is celebrity Trials. Let's start. In Columbus, Ohio, December thirtieth,

27
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:11.960
twenty twenty five, early morning hours, Wineland Park neighborhood, Spencer Tape,

28
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.280
thirty seven years old, and his wife, Monique, thirty nine,

29
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.240
are found shot dead inside their home. Two small children,

30
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.919
ages one and four, are left unharmed. The family dog

31
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.680
is fine. No sign of forced entry. Spencer was a dentist,

32
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.840
Monique worked in healthcare administration. They'd been married five years,

33
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:35.479
just celebrated their anniversary. By all accounts, a happy couple,

34
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:40.520
a loving family, a normal life. For more than a week,

35
00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:44.520
police released almost nothing, just a surveillance video of a

36
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.240
hooded figure walking in the alley next to their home

37
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:51.199
between two am and five am the morning of the murders.

38
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:56.360
Please call if you recognize this person. Then Saturday, January eleventh,

39
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:01.319
a break Michael David mcckee, d thirty nine years old

40
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:05.840
arrested in Rockford, Illinois, charged with two counts of murder.

41
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:10.400
Michael McKee is a vascular surgeon and he's Monique Tepe's

42
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.000
ex husband. They were married in August twenty fifteen, divorced

43
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:20.080
in June twenty seventeen, seven months of marriage, no children together.

44
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:25.080
The divorce was granted on grounds of incompatibility. Court records

45
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.560
don't explain what went wrong, but those wedding vows Monique

46
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:32.599
made to Spencer in December twenty twenty, I had quite

47
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:36.080
a journey to get to you, countless bad bumble dates,

48
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:41.680
wrong relationships, and waterfalls of tears. She wasn't just being romantic.

49
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.240
She was referring to her past, to relationships that didn't

50
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:51.280
work to Michael McKee. Eight years. That's how long between

51
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:54.240
the divorce and the murders. Eight years since Monique moved

52
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:57.759
on with her life met Spencer, got married, had two children,

53
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:01.560
built a family, and eight years the Michael McKee apparently waited.

54
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:05.800
Doctor Gary Bruccado is a leading clinical and forensic psychologist

55
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:09.080
who co led the largest study ever on mass murders.

56
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:11.919
He told The Daily Mail that when former spouses kill

57
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.879
years after a separation, it usually falls into one of

58
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:20.279
two categories. First, impulsive rage, someone walks in on an affair,

59
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.399
gets overwhelmed with emotion kills immediately. That usually happens close

60
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:28.680
to the separation because the passion will burn lower over

61
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.680
the years in a normal person, they move on. Second,

62
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:37.560
calculated revenge. Someone who broods for a long time, holds

63
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:42.800
a grudge, quietly enraged, waiting to level the playing field

64
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:47.279
an eight year gap. That's category two. Brucado called it

65
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:50.839
unusual because it takes a certain type of person to

66
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:53.639
be that angry and hold a grudge for so long.

67
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:58.800
Most spousal killings are people that are emotionally overwhelmed, he explained,

68
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.079
But to wait ye years to ruin a person's happiness

69
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:07.759
is calculated, cold blooded reptilian. Here's what makes this case

70
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:12.120
even more disturbing. Michael McKee had been disappeared for months

71
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:15.879
before the murders. McKee worked as a vascular surgeon at

72
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:20.000
OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford, Illinois. Before that,

73
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:23.560
he practiced in Las Vegas at Las Vegas Surgical Associates.

74
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.839
His Nevada medical license was issued in March twenty twenty

75
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.480
three and expired in June twenty twenty five. During his

76
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.959
time in Las Vegas, McKee was named in a medical

77
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:37.680
malpractice lawsuit. A patient named Guillerme Schwantz underwent laser treatment

78
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:41.000
in July twenty twenty three. According to the complaint, a

79
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:45.120
catheter or device sheared or fractured, leaving an eight point

80
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:50.360
six inch portion inside Schwantz's body. Emergency surgery required. The

81
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:54.000
lawsuit alleges McKee failed to properly train or supervise the

82
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:57.480
physician who performed the procedure. Attorneys tried to serve McKee

83
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:01.720
with a lawsuit, they couldn't find him. September thirtieth, twenty

84
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:05.680
twenty five, Process Server goes to McKee's home near Rainbow

85
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:10.000
Boulevard and West Cheyenne Avenue in Las Vegas. No answer.

86
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:15.040
The home was quiet, all the blinds were closed. October first,

87
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.199
process server heard the television on, knocked on the door.

88
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:23.439
The TV was turned off. No response. October ninth, process

89
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:29.279
server knocked again, no answer, no movement, left a contact card,

90
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:34.120
then discovered McKee's medical license had expired. Called the medical board,

91
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.000
no help. Spoke with another doctor who said he had

92
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.319
no idea where McKee was. Said McKee had just disappeared.

93
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:45.639
The process server found another address, an apartment near Bermuda

94
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:50.560
Road and East Star Avenue. Tried multiple times. Nobody home, quiet,

95
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.800
no movement, blinds closed. A neighbor said McKee didn't live

96
00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:58.079
there and didn't know him. So where was Michael McKee

97
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:03.199
In October twenty twenty five, nobody knew, His colleagues didn't know.

98
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:09.639
Process servers couldn't find him. He'd vanished. Two months later,

99
00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:14.000
Spencer and Monique Tape were dead. According to court documents,

100
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:17.240
McKee was linked to the murders after his vehicle was

101
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:20.240
captured on surveillance footage near the crime scene around the

102
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:24.240
time of the killings. Police haven't confirmed whether McKee is

103
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.360
the hooded figure in the alley footage they released to

104
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.079
the public, but if that video shows the killer, Brusato

105
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:34.240
noted something important that person does not seem passionate in

106
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:38.480
that moment, but calculated and cunning enough to conceal their identity,

107
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:43.920
look inconspicuous and calm. That suggests a calculated person who

108
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.800
thinks it's D Day. It's time to go in and

109
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:52.079
settle this. McKee lived in Rockford, Illinois. The Tepays lived

110
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:55.680
in Columbus, Ohio. That's over three hundred miles a five

111
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.079
hour drive. He allegedly drove three hundred miles to kill

112
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.800
his ex wife and her new husband eight years after

113
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:07.800
they divorced. Why now why eight years later? Generally, Brucato explained,

114
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:11.560
when someone harbors a long standing grudge, there's often a

115
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:16.240
precipitating factor that motivates them to finally act. Something pushes

116
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:18.600
them over the edge. Could be as simple as seeing

117
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:22.519
an old photo, remembering an anniversary, something that reminds them,

118
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:26.600
or bumping into them. They're walking around, brooding, mad and

119
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:29.040
delirious for a long time, thinking they would like to

120
00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:32.919
kill them, Brucado said, but then something pushes the person

121
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.840
and then they go, you know what, it's time. What

122
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:42.200
pushed Michael McKee, We don't know yet. Maybe he saw

123
00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:46.320
something about their fifth wedding anniversary, maybe something else triggered it.

124
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:51.879
The investigation is ongoing On Monday, McKee appeared in court

125
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:55.759
in Illinois. His charges were upgraded from murder to premeditated

126
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:59.360
aggravated murder. He waived his right to an extradition, hearing

127
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:03.519
he'll be transferred to Franklin County, Ohio to face charges.

128
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:06.960
His public defender said he plans to plead not guilty.

129
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:09.840
A relative of the Tepees told The Daily Mail the

130
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:13.799
family was not surprised by McKee's arrest. It was absolutely

131
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:16.799
not a shock to anybody. We had all expected it,

132
00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.919
but we weren't saying that because we didn't want to

133
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:23.480
compromise the investigation. We are all breathing a bit of

134
00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:27.720
a sigh of relief because they got him. The relative

135
00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:30.840
said they didn't know of any recent problems between Monique

136
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:35.440
Spencer and McKee. Whatever grievance McKee held, he held it

137
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:40.879
silently for eight years. If convicted, McKee faces life in

138
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:44.879
prison without parole or the death penalty. Spencer Tape was

139
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:50.039
thirty seven years old, dentist father of two. Monique called

140
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.799
him her lobster, her best friend, should be raising his children,

141
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.600
building his practice, growing old with the woman who called

142
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:01.480
him the love of her life. Monique Tape was thirty

143
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.559
nine years old, finally found happiness after wrong relationships and

144
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:11.080
waterfalls of tears. Had two beautiful children, a loving husband,

145
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:14.639
a life she built after leaving a marriage that didn't work.

146
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.879
Their children are one and four years old. They'll grow

147
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:23.399
up without parents because someone couldn't let go. Make it

148
00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:27.360
make sense. We'll be right back with. Day six of

149
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:31.360
the Uvaldi trial and off duty officer testifies he breached

150
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:34.399
the classroom and killed the shooter while the defendant waited

151
00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:38.039
in the hallway. Plus Day two of the mansion murders

152
00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:48.840
trial and Kiefer Sutherland's arrest. Welcome back to celebrity trials.

153
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:52.840
I'm reed Carter. Day six of the Uvalde trial and

154
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.759
for the first time, the jury heard from the officer

155
00:10:55.919 --> 00:11:00.240
who actually killed the shooter. Joe Vasquez Uvalde, can Ony

156
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:03.600
Sheriff's Office, off duty when the shooting started. He was

157
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.960
finishing a run headed to the gym when he got

158
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:08.559
a text about an active shooter. Put on a vest

159
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:12.120
over his workout clothes, didn't have a body camera, grabbed

160
00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:15.039
an ar rifle with ten to twelve rounds. He drove

161
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:19.960
to rob elementary, encountered parents and other officers recognized the location.

162
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:23.759
It's where he picked up his daughter. His daughter was

163
00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:28.720
inside that school. Vasquez ran between buildings, joined other officers,

164
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:33.080
was told about the shooter's likely location, heard discussion about

165
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:37.679
breaching the door, about a negotiator. Then Border Patrol tactical

166
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:43.840
Bortac arrived. Vasquez had a master key. They breached the classroom.

167
00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:49.759
Upon entry, Vasquez expected gunfire, described the confusion and darkness

168
00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:52.480
in the room. He fired a shot at the shooter.

169
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:56.519
The shooter was neutralized. Let me repeat that an off

170
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:00.120
duty officer wearing a vest over his workout clothes, carrying

171
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:02.919
an ar rifle with ten to twelve rounds, breached the

172
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:06.759
classroom and fired the shot that killed the shooter. Meanwhile,

173
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:11.440
what was the defendant doing? Officer Adrian Gonzalez was equipped

174
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.879
with only a side arm, no rifle, three magazines. He

175
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:18.639
waited in the hallway. Testimony revealed that no officers were

176
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:21.919
permanently assigned to rab elementary at the time of the shooting.

177
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.120
Only the high school had permanent security a chief, a lieutenant,

178
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:30.120
three officers and a security guard. The elementary school, where

179
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:34.159
nineteen children and two teachers would be murdered, nobody the

180
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:38.039
prosecution's theory. Gonzales arrived while the shooter was still outside

181
00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:42.720
the building. Did nothing, only entered after the damage was done,

182
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:45.000
then waited in the hallway for over an hour while

183
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:49.000
children bled out. Day six also brought testimony from more

184
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:53.240
teachers who survived. Elsa Avala taught fourth grade at raw

185
00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:57.240
Elementary for eight years. On May twenty fourth, twenty twenty two,

186
00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:00.759
she was preparing for a fun day, a ward ceremony

187
00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:05.360
stem activities. Then she heard students and teachers shouting something

188
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:10.120
was wrong. She initiated lockdown procedures, directed students to safety,

189
00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:13.360
then she was shot through the wall. Through the wall,

190
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:16.360
the bullets came through the classroom wall and hit her.

191
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.960
She communicated for help via text message. Despite her injuries.

192
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:23.720
Her students, nine and ten years old comforted her while

193
00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:27.559
she bled told her it would be okay. Police eventually

194
00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:30.879
evacuated her through a window. She was the last person

195
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:34.279
out of her classroom. She retired because of the trauma,

196
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.360
eventually returned to teaching after counseling. Here's a detail that

197
00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:42.919
should infuriate you. The school had a raptor alert system.

198
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:47.759
It's supposed to notify teachers of emergencies. Elsa Avella testified

199
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:50.600
the raptor system didn't send a notification to her phone

200
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.759
during the shooting. Aaron Robin, second grade teacher said she

201
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:58.039
received a raptor alert about an armed intruder around eleven

202
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:01.559
twenty four am, but other teachers didn't get it. The

203
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:04.679
system that was supposed to protect them failed and those

204
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:09.039
classroom doors. Teachers testified they used magnet strips to keep

205
00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:13.600
them from locking during the day easier access standard practice

206
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:18.000
school issued magnets. When the shooter arrived, those doors were

207
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:23.879
unlocked because it was more convenient. Ranger Ricardo Guahardo testified

208
00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:27.399
he interviewed Adrian Gonzalez the day after the shooting. The

209
00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:32.639
investigation began immediately, and now nearly four years later, Gonzalez

210
00:14:32.720 --> 00:14:35.720
is on trial for twenty nine counts of child endangerment

211
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:39.399
and abandonment, twenty nine counts each carrying up to two

212
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.480
years fifty eight years maximum. An off duty officer in

213
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:47.600
workout clothes breached the classroom and killed the shooter. The defendant,

214
00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:51.639
a ten year veteran with extensive active shooter training, waited

215
00:14:51.639 --> 00:15:09.399
in the hallway with a handgun. The trial continues Day

216
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.200
two of the mansion murders trial in New Jersey. Paul

217
00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:16.720
Kaniro fifty seven, accused of murdering his brother Keith fifty,

218
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.519
a sister in law, Jennifer forty five, and their children,

219
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:27.679
Sophia eight and Jesse eleven, November twenty eighteen, shot and

220
00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:32.399
stabbed to death. Bodies burned in a mansion fire. Yesterday,

221
00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:35.960
the jury heard about the money. Detective Debbie Bassenger from

222
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.840
the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office Financial Crimes Unit walked the

223
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:44.600
jury through bank records, insurance documents, the paper trail that

224
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:49.440
prosecutors say proves motive, but the most damning evidence two

225
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:53.879
phone calls captured on a home security camera. November nineteenth,

226
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:58.200
twenty eighteen, the day before the murders, Keith Caniro called

227
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:01.879
his brother Paul. WHY camera in Keith's home recorded his

228
00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:05.639
side of the conversation. Keith pressed Paul about missing money

229
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:09.720
Canada life insurance payments that weren't being made. He demanded

230
00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:14.399
access log in information. Where did the money go? I

231
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:16.639
need to know where it went, Keith told his brother.

232
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:21.440
The next morning, Keith was dead, shot four times in

233
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:24.879
the head and once in the back. Jennifer was shot

234
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:29.080
and stabbed. The children, eight and eleven years old, were

235
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.679
stabbed to death, the house was set on fire. Prosecutors

236
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:36.799
say Paul Canero killed his brother's entire family to cover

237
00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:40.440
up financial crimes, then set fire to his own house

238
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:43.120
to make it look like both families were being targeted.

239
00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:47.679
The defenses pointing to a third Caniro brother, arguing police

240
00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:52.080
didn't investigate other suspects, that the prosecution's theory doesn't make sense,

241
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.080
but those phone calls the day before the murders Keith

242
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.399
demanding answers about missing money Paul on the other end.

243
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:06.920
Testimony continues. The trial is expected to last several weeks. Finally,

244
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:12.000
some celebrity news. Keefer Sutherland, fifty nine years old, star

245
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:16.559
of twenty four, son of the late acting icon Donald Sutherland,

246
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:22.640
arrested Monday in Los Angeles. According to the LAPD, officers

247
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:25.599
responded to a call about an assault involving a ride

248
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.680
share driver shortly after midnight. The incident occurred near the

249
00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:34.160
intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue. Sutherland allegedly got

250
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:37.279
into the vehicle and assaulted the driver before threatening them.

251
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:41.319
He was arrested on suspicion of felony criminal threats. That's

252
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:44.480
a charge that covers situations where someone threatens to kill

253
00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:47.880
or cause serious bodily injury in order to inspire fear.

254
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:50.599
He was booked at the Hollywood Division at four to

255
00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:54.480
twenty three am, released later that morning on fifty thousand

256
00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:58.640
dollars bond. Court dates set for February second. The ride

257
00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:01.759
share driver didn't have injury is requiring medical attention at

258
00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:06.839
the scene. Sutherland has not publicly commented. His representatives haven't

259
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.839
responded to requests for comment. This isn't Sutherland's first run

260
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:14.319
in with the law two thousand and four DUI conviction

261
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:19.079
two thousand and seven, another DUI Because of the previous conviction,

262
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:22.559

thousand and nine, arrested for assault after headbutting fashion designer

264
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:29.960
Jack McCollough at a Metropolitan Museum of Art fundraiser in

265
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:35.599
New York. Charges were dropped after Sutherland publicly apologized. Sutherland

266
00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:38.960
has spoken about his relationship with alcohol. In a twenty

267
00:18:39.039 --> 00:18:42.279
sixteen interview with People, he said, I can also look

268
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:44.920
back on my life and tell you very squarely that

269
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:47.160
the only bad things that have ever happened to me

270
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:49.000
in my life have been because I like to go

271
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:52.759
to bars and have drinks with my friends. He continued,

272
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.599
I would be lying if I told you that there

273
00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:57.920
weren't moments where I felt I let it get away

274
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:04.519
from me. Apparently Monday was one of those moments. Sutherland's father,

275
00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:08.240
Donald Sutherland, died in June twenty twenty four, at eighty eight.

276
00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:15.000
A legendary career spanning decades, mash ordinary people, the Hunger Games.

277
00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:19.200
Keefer has always lived in his father's shadow, made his

278
00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:22.960
own mark with twenty four and Designated Survivor, But now

279
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:26.119
he's making headlines for allegedly assaulting a ride share driver

280
00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:31.240
on Sunset Boulevard. Felony criminal threats is a serious charge.

281
00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:35.359
If convicted, Sutherland could face prison time. For now, he's

282
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:39.279
out on bond, waiting for his February court date. Another celebrity,

283
00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:42.720
another mugshot. Another story about what happens when fame doesn't

284
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:49.519
protect you from your own worst impulses. That celebrity trials

eight years after their divorce. Michael McKee allegedly drove three

hundred Miles to execute Spencer and Monique Tepe in their

289
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:08.319
Columbus home. Their children, one in four years old, were

290
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:14.119
left alive. Forensic psychologists call it calculated, cold blooded reptilian.

291
00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:18.599
Day six of the Uvalde trial, an off duty officer

292
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:23.279
testified he breached the classroom and killed the shooter. The defendant, officer,
