1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.839
All right, folks, welcome back. We got lots of crime

2
00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:07.040
to cover today. A little look at the topics that

3
00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:10.839
we're gonna be talking about. In Louisiana, a cup of

4
00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:15.000
coffee in a parking lot struggle leads to a gunshot

5
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:18.280
in the dismissal of the cash. Here in Baton Rouge,

6
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:22.239
all over a cup of coffee, folks, we're gonna talk

7
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:26.920
about that. Of course, what's hitting the headlines and Kelly

8
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:30.000
Jennings and Jim Chapman working very hard for you peeps.

9
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:34.719
Last night we were all over this tragic case of

10
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:40.240
a church slash school shooting in Minneapolis. Kelly's gonna bring

11
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.679
you the details on that. Donald Trump has taken the

12
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:48.600
steps necessary to end cashless bail. What does this mean

13
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:51.479
and what type of crimes will be effective? We're gonna

14
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:55.280
have those answers. Florida Sheriff Grady Judge showed off a

15
00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:59.560
fifty thousand dollars gold chain he snatched from a drug

16
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:02.560
dealer and holds a press conference in which he showed

17
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:05.439
off his drip. If you will, you're going to hear

18
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:09.760
about that. A man is accused of burglarizing a sheriff's

19
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:13.959
deputies home and then burning it to the ground. In Oklahoma,

20
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:18.680
we've got that story. The Menendez brothers have been denied parole,

21
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:22.719
much to my surprise. Of course, Kelly did a deep

22
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:26.359
dive on the Menendez brothers on Unspeakable and she's going

23
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.040
to be bringing you that story. On eleven year old

24
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:33.640
in Oklahoma has given birth at her home and you're

25
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.840
not gonna believe who was charged in this case. We

26
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.799
got that information for you. Two intruders are killed in

27
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:45.599
Texas after attempting a home invasion and posing as police

28
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:49.840
officers to get inside the residence. We got that story.

29
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:53.920
Also in Texas, the FBI has arrested a mom who

30
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:57.799
was on the FBI's ten most wanted list for nearly

31
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:02.200
three years after her son. We got that story. A

32
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:06.239
man in Illinois shoots his ex girlfriend's new boyfriend when

33
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.560
he walks in on them while they're in bed. We've

34
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.879
got that story. In Mexican drug lord l Mayo pleads

35
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.719
guilty in New York to a ton of drug trafficking charges.

00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.560
want to hear if you will. It's just been one

44
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:45.759
busy week. But I was remissing the last episode. We

45
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:47.560
didn't talk about your birthday at all.

46
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:48.840
Oh yeah I had that.

47
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.039
Yeah a birthday. I did recently.

48
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:52.120
Shout out to my mom forgiving birth to me.

00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:56.319
Yeah, she should be the one with the cake and

00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:57.840

51
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:01.599
It was great? Yeah, turned forty one, did laundry. Yeah,

52
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:05.039
I actually played in my yard. I did forty one

53
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:05.680
year old things.

54
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.560
Played in your yard. It is forty one year old

55
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:11.560
thing I play. I we did my garden.

56
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.360
That's what I'm saying. And then, my sweetheart, I've been

57
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.240
wanting to put a big flower bed in. I know

58
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:17.960
this is really entertaining for the listeners, but he did

59
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:18.360
it for me.

60
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:20.400
Well, they like to hear. They like to hear it.

61
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.439
You know what we do outside of cover and crime.

62
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:26.960
Sure, and hey, they might like this. I built a

63
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:29.240
house for the frog that lives on my back patio.

64
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:31.159
I really did this.

65
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:33.759
This surprises me. No, y'all. This is someone that wants

66
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:35.240
to retire and get a farm.

67
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:39.599
I do, I do, but it's gonna be a mini farm. Well,

68
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:41.479
I want all miniature animals.

69
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:42.919
All miniature animals.

70
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:44.520
So when I get mad, I can just snatch that

71
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:47.080
little mini donkey's ass up and say get back in

72
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:49.120
your pin. I know you're about to do an article

73
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:50.680
on coffee. I just have to say real quick to

74
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:52.520
our local people that are listening, if you have not

75
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:55.560
tried French Settlement coffee. And by the way, this is

76
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:57.439
not a promo that we were paid anything to do.

77
00:03:57.639 --> 00:03:59.680
We know the owners of that gem and I do personally,

78
00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:01.680
and they started in their home and now they are

79
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.800
selling it now all over the US. Try French Settlement coffee, yall,

80
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:08.879
because they were just given an award in the Proclamation

81
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:10.560
of what was it, French Settlement?

82
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:14.639
It was there, reckon. Now they are recognized as the

83
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:16.959
official coffee of Livingston Pairs.

84
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:19.360
That's what it was. I was too proud to listen

85
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:20.399
to the actual details.

86
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.360
Apparently, Well, and you're right, they make a great cup

87
00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:26.560
of coffee and incidentally they're top selling. And I'm not

88
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:29.720
making this up. Their top selling flavors Bloody and goa

89
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:31.360
hell yeah.

90
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:34.199
So shout out to Billy and Shannon. We're very proud

91
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:34.680
of you for that.

92
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:37.439
So let's get into this coffee store, right and a

93
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.439
batonerage woman has stole a cup of coffee from a

94
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:44.279
gas station, then shot at the cashier with the cashier's

95
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.199
own gun during a tussle outside of the store. She

96
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.480
now faces a count of first degree murdered. Let me

97
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:55.759
tell you what happened. The cashier, Jetty Lee. Now that's

98
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.199
a great first name, Jetty. That's cool. Jety. That's first

99
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:01.759
time I've ever heard that. That one now says that not

100
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.279
only was her life put in danger that morning, but

101
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:08.120
she lost her job because of the incident. Police officers

102
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:11.959
responded to the scene. This was at a racetrack shortly

103
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:15.600
after three am Friday, and banners nothing happens good at

104
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:19.000
a racetrack. At three am, a witness at the eye

105
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:22.000
hop next door had called nine one one to report

106
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.079
hearing a gunshot in the direction of the gas station.

107
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.839
During that call, the witness walked over saw two women

108
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.879
scuffling over a firearm in the parking lot. The incident

109
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:37.720
started as a simple act of shoplifting with Rachel Miles,

110
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:41.199
who is thirty five, walking into the racetrack and leaving

111
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:44.079
with a cup of coffee. The problem was she didn't

112
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:47.160
pay for it. Lee said that other than the theft,

113
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:51.000
Miles wasn't being disruptive or violent inside of the store,

114
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:54.480
but a short time later she had clocked out, retrieved

115
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:56.360
her purse from her car, and she was having a

116
00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:00.519
little cigarette. Well, Miles starts acting kind of isolent in

117
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.519
the parking lot. Quote, I didn't go outside because she

118
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:07.160
had taken that cup of coffee. I mean it's two

119
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:11.720
dollars and twenty nine cents. That from Lee lisaid, Miles

120
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:15.199
began to act erratically, pushing a male customer as he

121
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:19.680
left the gas station. Then Miles approached her grabbed her purse.

122
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:24.560
That of course escalated the situation. And the reason it

123
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.560
did is because there was a gun in that purse.

124
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:30.079
So she said, as I pushed her back, she grabs

125
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.680
my bag. My gun was in my bag, So of

126
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.160
course I'm gonna put my hand on top of the bag,

127
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:37.759
which it would put it on top of the gun

128
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:41.639
to keep that from flying out. The other lady saw

129
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:45.360
the gun, a scuffle ensued. The gun goes off while

130
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:49.639
still in the purse, with the shot just barely missing

131
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:53.000
a bystander. Soon the women were on the ground. They

132
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:56.279
were wrestling for control of that firearm, and Li said

133
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:59.839
she managed to eject the magazine from the gun. That's

134
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.199
pretty good when you're scuffling on the ground. But it

135
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.639
was already chambered, so bullet was in the chamber when

136
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:09.279
she got it again. I didn't have but one more

137
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:11.720
bullet in it, Lee said, But I could have lost

138
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:13.839
my life. She turned the gun on me and pressed

139
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:16.519
it into my chest and then she said bow bow,

140
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:20.879
which I guess pop pop her version. Lee said she

141
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:23.639
was able to flip Miles onto her stomach and hold

142
00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:26.600
her down until police arrived. Miles, who was still armed

143
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:30.879
with the gun, resisted arrest before being taken into custody.

144
00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:33.959
She was booked into the Eber Parish Prison on one

145
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:37.079
count each of attempted first to remurder, arm, robbery, and

146
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:40.519
a slew of other charges. Before being booked, Miles was

147
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.240
taken to Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center

148
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.439
for treatment. But for Lee, that wasn't the end of

149
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:50.120
the troubles. She said that the next day she found

150
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:53.800
out she had been fired from Racetrack for having a

151
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:57.759
firearm on company property that's against policy. She said she

152
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:01.079
had been working at Racetrack for about eight months, and

153
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:03.600
she said she was acting in self defense. She only

154
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:06.240
had the gun on her person after she clocked out

155
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:09.959
from work. Quote, nobody was hurt. I prevented anyone from

156
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:14.279
being hurt, but I still lose my job. Kelly thoughts, Yeah, that.

157
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.399
Whole situation is on. I hate to say unfortunate, because

158
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:21.680
that could have been deadly. And I think she's very lucky.

159
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:25.279
The fact the woman said bow bow and didn't shoot her.

160
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:29.040
We got some mental we got some instability here.

161
00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:32.519
Yeah, and I'm wondering if that woman even knew there

162
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:33.960
was another bullet in it.

163
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:35.960
I don't know, But the fact she didn't pull the

164
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:38.799
trigger is a blessing. I'll say, I'm not a big fan.

165
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:41.480
I'm definitely not victim blaming here. I'm just not a

166
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.120
big fan of carrying a gun and a purse. I

167
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.600
like it on my perse son so that I can

168
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:49.679
control the weapon at all times. But yeah, if it

169
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:51.320
was policy, you're not supposed to have the weapon, and

170
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:53.399
you had it. It is what it is. And then

171
00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:56.320
this is precisely probably why you're not supposed to have that.

172
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.759
And the outcome, unfortunately, is I feel like the company's

173
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:04.159
got it right. If that was policy and she broke it.

174
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:08.200
Yeah, and I think that you nailed it. The problem is,

175
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.919
situations like this are much more likely to arise if

176
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:15.960
you're armed. Look, I worked for a retail establishment for

177
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:20.759
twenty three years, and the entire time I worked there,

178
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:25.879
even in in management, we could not carry weapons. Now,

179
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:29.960
I'm not going to say people didn't, but certainly if

180
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:32.080
we would have been caught or we would certainly if

181
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:34.120
we would have been in a position like what this

182
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:37.720
young lady was in, yeah, that would have been it.

183
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:40.519
We'd have been fired because it's it's policy, and you

184
00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:42.279
sign you signed that policy.

185
00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:44.600
She should just cut her losses in this one. You're

186
00:09:44.639 --> 00:09:46.639
done at racetrack. I don't think it's a good fit,

187
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:48.440
and go find you something else, babe.

188
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:51.360
Yeah, could be a police officer, I mean something like that.

189
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:54.360
Maybe maybe maybe we're the crackheads, don't hang out outside

190
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.200
of the establishment. Off there, that might be a good,

191
00:09:57.799 --> 00:09:58.840
a better choice or something.

192
00:09:59.360 --> 00:09:59.679
Yeah.

193
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.480
Hey, I'm glad everyone survived. That's good. Thank god she

194
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:06.559
fought you know, but I'll say this, if you're gonna

195
00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:08.440
carry a gun, it's more than carrying. It's like being

196
00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:10.279
a police officer. Just because you have a bad one

197
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:11.720
doesn't mean that people are gonna respect you. And you

198
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:13.960
better be able to fight. So if you're gonna just

199
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:17.159
carrying a gun, doesn't mean that you're gonna be okay,

200
00:10:17.399 --> 00:10:19.679
because even you carrying a gun inserts a gun into

201
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.039
every situation and as you can see, someone can take

202
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:23.559
it from you and it can end your own life.

203
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:24.639
So well, that's right.

204
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.200
Weapon retention matters, all right. Now, speaking of weapons, and

205
00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:30.919
this one's tough. I think if you've been anywhere in

206
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.720
the news in the last twenty four hours, you've heard

207
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:36.600
of this Catholic school shooting that took place in Minneapolis,

208
00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:40.559
and this one, this one hurts. So police responded to

209
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:43.480
a mass shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis, Minnesota,

210
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:46.559
on Wednesday, where they said two children were killed and

211
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:49.600
seventeen people injured. The suspected shooter of a group of

212
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:53.720
Minneapolis Catholic School students at morning mass Wednesday has been identified,

213
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.240
and we're just gonna do it this here. If you

214
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.159
want to know the name, you can go google it.

215
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:00.120
We will not refer to this piece of shit on

216
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:02.840
this show. We will not give any any sort of

217
00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:04.919
reference to this person's name, because they don't deserve it.

218
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:09.120
He was carrying three firearms, a rifle, a pistol, and

219
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.399
a shotgun. The shooter had their name legally changed to

220
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:16.080
a different name in twenty nineteen, and FBI Director Cash

221
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.919
Pttel confirmed that the shooter was transgender. Disturbing videos posted

222
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:24.240
by a person using the name Robin Westman were deleted

223
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.039
from YouTube after the shooting, showing handwritten pages of a notebook,

224
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.559
weapons with messages painted on them, and commentary from whoever

225
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:35.399
filmed them. Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara confirmed that police

226
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:38.600
were aware of a manifesto that the shooter had timed

227
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:41.440
to be released on YouTube. It appeared to show him

228
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:44.799
at the scene and included some disturbing writing, the chief said.

229
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:47.559
He added that all three firearms used in the attack

230
00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:50.200
had been purchased legally by the shooter, who had no

231
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:54.039
prior criminal record. Police were serving four search warrants, one

232
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:57.000
at the crime scene and three more residences in the

233
00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:01.559
Minneapolis metro area. Police seized additional guns from those residential locations.

234
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:04.799
He said the attack took place at Annunciation Catholic School

235
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:07.720
on Wednesday morning, but police have not identified any of

236
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:10.960
the victims. They said two children were killed, and authority

237
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:14.360
said the shooter committed suicide after the act. Ten victims

238
00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:17.679
were taken to Hennepink Health Care, which said that it

239
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:20.919
had received one adult and six children in critical condition,

240
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:23.840
and another adult and two more children with injuries that

241
00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:27.200
were not life threatening. Three children were still receiving care

242
00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:30.720
at Children's Minnesota, while four other patients were discharged. Our

243
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.120
thoughts are with the victims, their families, and loved ones

244
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.039
in our communities who are impacted by yet another senseless

245
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.399
act of violence, the hospital said in a statement. We

246
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:40.720
will not share more details to respect the privacy of

247
00:12:40.759 --> 00:12:43.759
our patients and families. Police said the shooter was dressed

248
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:47.320
in all black and carrying a black rifle. The Children's

249
00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:50.759
Minnesota hospital said six children are being treated after the shooting.

250
00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:53.279
The hospital would not share details about the patients out

251
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.559
of respect for them and their loved ones.

252
00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:02.799
Yeah. Uh, you know, what do you say about kids,

253
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:09.120
kids or adults, but especially kids getting just shot and

254
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:15.039
killed like this. It's absolutely disgusting. We won't dignify this

255
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:20.519
asshole's name doesn't deserve it. I don't know what the

256
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:23.879
answer is here. You know, you watch the news and

257
00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:27.440
the reports on this, and of course most people it's

258
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:30.480
the gun's fault. Of course, it's not the gun's fault.

259
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.080
It's and then they're looking to blame schools, and they're

260
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:35.360
looking to blame the police, and they're looking to blame

261
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:39.840
everybody except the person who actually did it, and that

262
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:42.879
is who we are to blame in this in my opinion.

263
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:46.120
Yeah, and so some of the things that were written

264
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:49.399
he took in this video, laid out a bunch of

265
00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:51.840
his weapons, and then the magazines and all that kind

266
00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:53.320
of stuff, and he wrote he took the time and

267
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:56.679
like it looks like white paint, like a paint marker

268
00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:01.039
wrote some things on these weapons, and some of it

269
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:07.440
is just absolutely callous, heartless. F them kids, fuck you

270
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:10.159
eat shit. And then a derogatory NRM term for a

271
00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:13.440
gay person. One of the magazines said for the children.

272
00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:16.399
One of them said kick a spic, which is just like,

273
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:21.639
what is derogatory? Yeah, yeah, there was six six six

274
00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:26.039
on there a random name. It said no remorse. Then

275
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.440
another one said Israel must fall. But there were two

276
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:32.639
things that stuck out to me specifically whenever I was

277
00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:36.320
looking at these writings. One of them was it said, uh,

278
00:14:36.399 --> 00:14:38.679
I think it's barute kazad is how you would say it.

279
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:43.600
And that seemed almost cheesy, because that is like a

280
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:47.120
battle cry or a war cry for the dwarfish in

281
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:51.879
the Hobbit, And so I couldn't quite understand that one

282
00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:54.039
other than it was supposed to be a war cry

283
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:56.360
and unless there's another meaning to that.

284
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:00.320
Of a crazy put right.

285
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:04.200
But this is the thing that really got me. On

286
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:07.960
one of them, it said have fun. Now off the top,

287
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:10.440
that just sounds like cruel wording. But if you know

288
00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:13.919
anything about the Columbine shooting whatsoever, at the end of

289
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:17.000
their manifesto, at the very end of their manifesto where

290
00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:20.799
they wrote what their plans were, it said have fun.

291
00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:23.320
That is how they ended it. And I think that

292
00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:25.759
that's an I think that that's an ode to Columbine.

293
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:29.039
And if what this proves, and my point in telling

294
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:31.240
sharing this is it's like, you don't want to share

295
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:32.879
this news because you don't want to shed the light

296
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:38.120
on it. But the issue is that when we give credit,

297
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:40.120
and that's not even the word that should be used.

298
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:43.559
But when we validate this person's gripes or their concerns

299
00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:46.080
or whatever it is, and then we put their name

300
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:47.799
to it, and then we blast it all over the

301
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:49.480
media of their picture and all of this kind.

302
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.519
Of stuff, that's what they want.

303
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.240
That's what they want. But it also inspires other who

304
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:57.759
I think mentally ill people. It inspires them. It shows

305
00:15:57.799 --> 00:15:59.879
them that it can't be we can get even, we

306
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:04.679
can we can exact revenge, I guess, even though these

307
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:06.759
children had nothing to do with it on people and

308
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:08.840
there was all This is called leakage, by the way,

309
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:11.480
if you don't know. And so whenever, uh, there are

310
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:15.039
shootings like this, mass shootings, it's actually very common when

311
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:19.360
you look at tag assessments or threat group threat assessment

312
00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:24.639
groups that leakage is actually a very common thing. But

313
00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:26.919
what's what he did here was he didn't leak it

314
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:31.240
ahead of time. He scheduled it to leak after And

315
00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:34.879
so yeah, maybe he did that on purpose.

316
00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:38.200
Oh he Well, I think he did because at leaked

317
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:41.120
the same time that the shootings.

318
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:42.320
Were going on, and he was very clear to say

319
00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:47.240
only sorry to my family. Otherwise I have no remorse

320
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:49.240
for this, and let me tell you what. You're not sorry,

321
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:52.080
then you have no clue what the word sorry means none,

322
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:55.240
because if you're sorry about something premptively and then you

323
00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:56.720
still go do it, you're.

324
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:58.440
Not sorry, No, of course not.

325
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:01.799
Yeah, And right do you wonder? And I want to

326
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:03.200
ask you this. And I know someone right now is

327
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:05.079
going to want to jump down my throat. But they

328
00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:09.240
were then blasting his mother on the news, and because

329
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:11.400
she worked at the school and a part of me.

330
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:15.839
And incidentally worked there till twenty twenty one and it

331
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:18.920
had been several years, just clearing that up.

332
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:23.279
Yeah, and incidentally in a way, I'm like, you know,

333
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:25.400
I wanted to be like this woman. She may not

334
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:28.279
have even known because he bought the guns. I mean, yeah,

335
00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:30.720
in this moment right now, I'm too emotional. I think

336
00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:34.359
about what these kids experience. And they saw I saw

337
00:17:34.400 --> 00:17:37.200
one kid say that his friend Victor was the baby's name.

338
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:38.839
He said, I jumped under a pew and then my

339
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:40.880
friend Victor got on top of me and he got shot.

340
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:43.839
And this was just minutes after it happened. I'm like,

341
00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:45.440
is that kid's got to be and she's shot?

342
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:49.559
Yeah, And that's things also that's the collateral damage of

343
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:52.960
that that people maybe don't think as hard about is

344
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:55.720
the witnesses and what they're going to get through for

345
00:17:55.799 --> 00:18:00.160
the rest of their life, especially a young mind that

346
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:04.279
it is easily reared. You know, how do you overcome

347
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:06.519
That's something you carry with you the rest of your life.

348
00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:07.599
Even the survivors.

349
00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:10.359
How do you defend fanaticism? How do you protect yourself

350
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:13.480
from someone who's just a loose cannon? You know, I

351
00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:16.839
don't know. We need to watch how this progresses. I

352
00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:20.119
know I want to send my personal love and it's

353
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:22.400
not good enough. It's not enough to the families. But

354
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:27.440
we care, strangers care, and in some weight our prayers

355
00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:29.359
I hope reach them.

356
00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:32.400
Right. Let's go to the next story, and we're going

357
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:36.839
to talk about Donald Trump and his steps to end

358
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:40.440
cashless bail. So let me tell you what happened. On

359
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:43.920
August twenty fifth of twenty twenty five, President Donald Trump

360
00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.279
signed two executive orders that were aimed at ending cashless

361
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:53.160
bell citing public safety concerns. Now one order is national

362
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.839
in scope, where the other is specifically dialed down to Washington,

363
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:01.960
d C. Where cashless bails and policies have been in

364
00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:07.200
effect for decades. So the nationwide order says that District

365
00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:12.559
Attorney General Pam Bondie, she's compiled the lists of states

366
00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:18.039
and jurisdictions that have eliminated or substantially reduced cash bail.

367
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:23.920
The order requires identifying federal funds, including grants and contracts,

368
00:19:24.200 --> 00:19:29.279
that could be suspended or terminated for these jurisdictions. Washington

369
00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:35.000
dec specific order targets, obviously the District of Columbia in particular,

370
00:19:35.359 --> 00:19:39.359
where the administration had already declared a public safety emergency.

371
00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:44.119
It instructs law enforcement agencies to pursue federal charges and

372
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:49.319
holds arrestees in federal custody wherever possible bypassing the city's

373
00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:53.599
cash list bail system. And there's calls for identifying appropriate

374
00:19:53.720 --> 00:19:58.200
actions quote unquote to pressure DC to change its policies.

375
00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:01.960
In what the basically saying is, if you don't change

376
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:04.519
these policies, you're not going to get federal funding, or

377
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:08.480
it will affect federal funding. Now. The rationale for the

378
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:12.119
executive orders. Trump stated that the cash list bail is

379
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:17.119
a disaster and enables criminals to be released to commit

380
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:20.480
further crimes. The White House pointed to a twenty twenty

381
00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:24.759
three study by the District Attorney's office in Yolo County, California.

382
00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:29.039
They claimed a temporary cash list bail system during COVID

383
00:20:29.119 --> 00:20:35.640
nineteen led to increased recidivism. The National Shares Association also

384
00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:39.559
released a statement in support of the President's actions. Now,

385
00:20:39.599 --> 00:20:45.720
those that do not like this executive order their debate

386
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.559
on this, as they say cashless bill is a more

387
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:53.359
equitable system that doesn't penalize low income individuals who can't

388
00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:56.640
afford to pay for their own release. They also say

389
00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.599
that forcing low income defendants to remain in jail pretrial

390
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:05.799
can lead to loss of job, housing, in child custody opportunities,

391
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:09.839
and the data cited by the White House, according to them,

392
00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:14.880
is not representative as the California study was a temporary measure,

393
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:19.440
So the studies that others have done on bail reform

394
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:22.799
have kind of mixed results. A twenty twenty four study

395
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:28.279
showed that no statistically significant relationship between bail reform and

396
00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:33.000
crime rates exist. However, other analysis like that one in

397
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:36.680
California that I mentioned, have found that associations between cash

398
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:42.200
lists bail and higher reciptivism rates do exist. The DC

399
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:47.559
Mayor Mural Bowser said that the city's approach was good,

400
00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:51.920
noting that recent amendments to its bail laws, and pointed

401
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:55.319
to data suggesting no increase in the violent crime is

402
00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:59.119
linked to pre trial release. So what do you think

403
00:21:59.160 --> 00:21:59.559
about this?

404
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:02.960
You know, I wanted to give some examples, though, so

405
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.720
it's easy to say, just off the top, okay, this

406
00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:08.039
could happen, or this will happen. But here were some

407
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:11.400
examples of cases that are cited from twenty twenty two

408
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:15.160
and through twenty twenty four that this would matter. Okay,

409
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:17.720
So in twenty twenty two, a New York City man

410
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:21.920
was released without bail after he smeared his own feces

411
00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:25.640
on a random woman waiting for the subway. This guy

412
00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:29.759
already had dozens of arrests, including beating up a bus

413
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:33.559
driver just months earlier, and he has a hate crime

414
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:35.440
that he had been charged with, and yet he was

415
00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:39.440
just cut loose under this concept. Another one in twenty

416
00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:42.720
twenty two, a New York man brutally executed a mother

417
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:45.480
in front of her three children less than twenty four

418
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.160
hours after he was freed without bail and a violent

419
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:50.920
assault of the same woman. The man had a prior

420
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.440
conviction for kidnapping his ex girlfriend at gunpoint. It goes

421
00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:58.200
on and on. Two illegal immigrants jumped some New York

422
00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:01.079
cops and then bit them, like physically bit them and

423
00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:03.319
attack them, cut them loose without bail. And there's a

424
00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:04.559
bunch of these that you can look up.

425
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:07.039
Well, and so let me let me say this real quick,

426
00:23:07.079 --> 00:23:09.119
since you're on that point, But you could say that

427
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:10.400
for people that paid.

428
00:23:10.119 --> 00:23:13.200
Bill, you could, but why make it easier? And so

429
00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:18.720
I think maybe discretion here matters. Discretion always matters. But

430
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.720
you know, I guess there could be an argument that

431
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:26.319
if you're a single mom who got arrested for you know,

432
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:28.559
I don't know, shoplifting or something, well, does it say

433
00:23:28.599 --> 00:23:31.559
just violent crime or non violent or did it specify.

434
00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:34.359
From what I understand, it's it's going to be for more.

435
00:23:34.279 --> 00:23:36.960
Violent for the more violent event, Okay, violence. Look, if

436
00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:39.720
you're a violent to be specific, h that's the discretion

437
00:23:39.960 --> 00:23:42.039
I'm talking about. So, but if you're a violent offender,

438
00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:44.440
sorry not sorry, if that means you're hurting people or

439
00:23:44.480 --> 00:23:46.880
you have the potential to hurt people. As just evidence,

440
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:49.440
you put your shit on me while I'm waiting for

441
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:51.519
a bus. You might eat a bullet, you know what

442
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:53.519
I'm saying. So we're going to curb crime by keeping

443
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:56.680
these people from offending up just kidding allegedly and just

444
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:02.440
joking for entertainment purposes only. But that that's that's that's unspeakable,

445
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:05.160
that's disgusting. I mean, kids saw their own mother murdered.

446
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.119
How are we letting these people out? Like, give me

447
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:08.559
a break?

448
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:12.079
Yeah, and that And to me, that's really the question is.

449
00:24:12.519 --> 00:24:14.880
And I get it. Look, we're in the United States,

450
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:17.880
are until proven guilty. I gets our system. That's what

451
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:20.960
separates us from ninety nine point nine percent of the world.

452
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:25.440
I get that, I am, I am.

453
00:24:25.640 --> 00:24:27.960
But that's the point of bail. The whole point the

454
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:30.160
reason that bail was made was because I mean, I.

455
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.799
Agree with the exactly order personally, but I do see

456
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:35.839
some points on both sides of that. If you're someone

457
00:24:35.880 --> 00:24:39.920
that you know, you you struggle and make ends meet,

458
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:43.000
and maybe you're charged with something you didn't do.

459
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:46.039
Then you're screamed, Like I mean, if you got caught

460
00:24:46.039 --> 00:24:48.400
with none of those happened weed or something that's legal

461
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:50.519
in some states and not other. I get that, you know,

462
00:24:50.640 --> 00:24:53.359
things things like that could happen and I'm not minimizing

463
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:58.279
anything but relative Okay, we got such relativity matters, discretion

464
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:01.400
matters here, the crime matter, the crime matters, and the

465
00:25:01.559 --> 00:25:03.599
risk okay, because this is all about risk. If they're

466
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:06.480
talking about recidivism rates, this is all about risks. And

467
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:09.160
so look at these offenders. Who is at most risk

468
00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:12.480
excuse me, most risk to go reoffend somebody, and let's

469
00:25:12.519 --> 00:25:15.000
do something. We've got to stop victims from happening.

470
00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:18.839
Yeah, and look they are, it's already. I don't want

471
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.759
to say easy enough, but I would unless you're charged

472
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:25.640
with like first degree martyr, second degree murder or something

473
00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:27.599
like that, your bail is not going to be insanely

474
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:31.480
I anyway, you only have to pay twelve percent. So

475
00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:34.759
if a bail is one thousand dollars, you've got to

476
00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:37.319
pay twelve bucks to get out of jail. If your

477
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.039
bail's thirty thousand dollars, maybe come up with one hundred

478
00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:41.839
and fifty or one hundred and twenty something like that,

479
00:25:42.119 --> 00:25:46.839
whatever it is. But unless you're charged with a major

480
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:50.079
violent crime, I don't think money would be the issue

481
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:51.400
for most people.

482
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:53.680
Yeah. Well, and that's why they got bondsmen and stuff too.

483
00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:55.960
But that's right. You only pay twelve percent of it

484
00:25:56.160 --> 00:25:56.480
through a.

485
00:25:56.440 --> 00:25:58.880
Bond, and to act like this is totally out of

486
00:25:58.920 --> 00:26:03.319
pocket is kind of crazy because in certain situations, judges

487
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:07.839
have the authority to hold someone without bail. Why because

488
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:10.480
they are considered to be a great danger to society

489
00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:12.799
or a flight risk or whatever. So it's not like

490
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:15.599
this is this egregious, crazy thing that they're making it

491
00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:18.799
out to be, and it's to protect people. Yep, it's so,

492
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:21.680
you know, I'm with it. I'm down. Hopefully they rein

493
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:23.960
it in though, so that it doesn't affect the little

494
00:26:23.960 --> 00:26:24.720
guy on the totem bole.

495
00:26:24.799 --> 00:26:27.880
But you know what I'm saying, Yeah, there's always outliers

496
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:30.559
that you feel bad for that maybe they didn't do something,

497
00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:33.279
they were charged with it and now they're stuck in jail.

498
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:36.680
But those are such a low percentage of the overall crime.

499
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:38.960
I think people would be smart enough to understand what

500
00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:40.880
this is for. Yeah, all right, let's go to Florida,

501
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.440
where I'm just such a fan of Sheriff Grady Judd.

502
00:26:44.519 --> 00:26:47.759
I will say that every day, but Sheriff Grady Judd

503
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:50.680
and no nonsense Florida sheriff known for his tough talking

504
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:54.119
and showmanship, announced the takedown of a drug trafficking gang

505
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:58.240
by donning the ringleader's gold chain and bracelet during a

506
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:01.279
press conference. The polk on the sheriff, wore the jewelry

507
00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:04.440
to drive home what he called the deadly consequences of

508
00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:07.519
so called low level drug dealing. He also held up

509
00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:10.559
seized guns to underline his point that dealers are armed

510
00:27:10.559 --> 00:27:13.559
and dangerous. This is a quote. I got their drip,

511
00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:16.880
I got their body, we got their guns, we got

512
00:27:16.880 --> 00:27:20.559
their dope. That's what Judd said Friday, unveiling the results

513
00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:22.880
of a year long investigation that led to the arrests

514
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:27.680
of thirty two suspects in Bartow. Judd identified Nathaniel Nate Donald,

515
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:30.240
a repeat offender, as heading the network and said a

516
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:32.839
member of his rings sold cocaine to sixty five year

517
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:36.759
old Irene Anderson on a Saturday night last year. Anderson

518
00:27:36.799 --> 00:27:39.440
then collapsed and died hours later as she was on

519
00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:41.799
her way to church. She was walking out of her

520
00:27:41.799 --> 00:27:45.480
house to church when she collapsed, So she died so

521
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.000
Nate could have this drip, jud said, did you hear

522
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:51.839
what I said? He's buying this drip from selling drugs

523
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:54.960
to people on the streets, one of which died. Judd

524
00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:57.960
said law enforcement carried out six wire intercepts and eight

525
00:27:58.039 --> 00:28:01.640
search warrants in Bartow last November, which uncovered fifty thousand

526
00:28:01.680 --> 00:28:04.200
dollars worth of jewelry. But I want you to imagine

527
00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.440
this for a minute. People continue to tell you that

528
00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:09.839
drugs are low level and nonviolent. Jud said, there are

529
00:28:09.880 --> 00:28:13.319
anything but low level and nonviolent. Where you see fifty

530
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:16.400
thousand dollars in drip, where you see the not so

531
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:20.559
dangerous drug of cannabis, you see guns, you see first

532
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:25.279
degree murder from overdose. Detectives identified Donald, Brian B. Myrick,

533
00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:29.319
and Isaiah Bubba Donald as key members of the network. Myrik,

534
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:31.359
who is released from prison in twenty twenty one for

535
00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:35.440
cocaine trafficking, now faces dozens of new counts, including conspiracy

536
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:41.400
to sell cocaine and trafficking methamphetamine, fentanyl, and MDMA. Troy Walker,

537
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:45.279
supplied by Myrik, sold the cocaine to Anderson and has

538
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:48.200
since been indicted for first degree murder in her overdose death.

539
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:52.119
In total, investigator sees thousands of grams of illegal drugs

540
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:54.559
with a combined street value of one hundred and fifty

541
00:28:54.599 --> 00:28:59.440
thousand dollars. Arrests included suspects already on probation or pre

542
00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:03.319
trial relief pe and several firearms were recovered from convicted felons.

543
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:06.960
Detectives said this suspects combined criminal histories add up to

544
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:10.279
five hundred and fifty four felonies and three hundred and

545
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:13.440
ninety four misdemeanors. Judd said the only place for drug

546
00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:16.039
dealers is in prison because when they are released, they

547
00:29:16.079 --> 00:29:20.400
quickly reoffend, often with deadly consequences. They're a menace to society.

548
00:29:20.720 --> 00:29:23.440
They've got to stay in prison or people die. Jud said,

549
00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:26.680
whoever tells you that narcotics is low level and non violent,

550
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:31.720
they're crazy. The investigation, dubbed Operation Capital City Crackdown, began

551
00:29:31.759 --> 00:29:34.119
in August of twenty twenty four. It was led by

552
00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:39.119
PCSO's Tactical Drug Unit, Organized Crime Unit, and HIDTA Task Force,

553
00:29:39.400 --> 00:29:42.960
which are with support from the State Attorney's Office, Homeland

554
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:47.960
Security Investigations, US Border Patrol, FDL, e FBI, the Bartow

555
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:50.240
Police Department, and other partners.

556
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:54.799
Yeah, So, Sheriff Gardi jub We've talked about him many times.

557
00:29:54.839 --> 00:29:59.279
He is he's a badass. I mean, he's just awesome

558
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:04.680
finished since the late seventies, I believe, never been raying

559
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:07.400
against I don't think since he's been in office, which

560
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:10.519
g y'all know how rare that is for a sheriff.

561
00:30:11.720 --> 00:30:14.240
You're spending your time arresting people. You're pissing a lot

562
00:30:14.240 --> 00:30:17.799
of people off, you know, and he is just the man.

563
00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:20.559
But if you saw him walk into this press conference,

564
00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:22.720
and we'll put a picture of it on the Facebook page,

565
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:26.799
he's got a fifty like she said, a fifty thousand

566
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:29.680
dollars chain for those of you that don't know what

567
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:33.200
drip is, and it is something you think you would

568
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:35.240
see on run dmcwuck.

569
00:30:35.440 --> 00:30:37.920
And I gotta say this, how fucking stupid are these guys? Okay,

570
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:42.160
you made fifty thousand dollars and you bought a fucking change.

571
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:44.880
Oh yeah, Like, I guarantee you they have kids. I

572
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:46.960
guarantee you. I don't even know these guys. I bet

573
00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:48.519
you there's a bunch of kids that aren't being taken

574
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:51.119
care of in this situation. And you took fifty grand

575
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:53.440
to buy a damn necklace. Like you're not even bright,

576
00:30:54.079 --> 00:30:55.759
You're not even smart. Why didn't you go put a

577
00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:58.079
down payment on a house or something like. You know,

578
00:30:58.359 --> 00:31:00.559
and I'm not saying drug sales should be is a

579
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:03.319
good thing, but you're not even smart. You're running around

580
00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:06.720
with a bunch of wannabes totin guns killing people to

581
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:10.680
wear a damn necklace. Like how ridiculous.

582
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:14.519
All right, Let's go to Oklahoma and an Oklahoma man

583
00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:19.839

585
00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:28.880
