Crime Wire Weekly 9/25/26 | Marketplace Murder, Grief Scam, and a Tip That Stopped a Shooting

0:16 All right folks welcome back as always look at the topics and kelly jennings winning the lottery doesn't buy common sense i wish it would well a kentucky man who cashed a 167 million dollar powerball ticket is backing cuffs for a fifth time since winning that jackpot this time detectives and deputies found him passed out in a Mustang that was running in a Walmart parking lot, and from there it just gets stupider. Okay, I can't wait to hear it. In Louisiana, a caretaker is accused of pouring bleach into a man's water bottle. In Texas, a dad is killed during what is supposed to be a Facebook marketplace meetup.

0:58 Oh, here we go. In Arkansas, a school shooting plot is stopped after a tip-line call gives investigators just enough time to move. Then it's off to Florida where a Vermont couple ends up in handcuffs for public nudity. And that one is, of course, going to lustful lawbreakers because you're not going to believe their reasoning for that. We're going to go back home to Louisiana. Slimy dude. Yeah. That was his handle. He is arrested in a sexual assault case that started on social media. Crazy story there. A Roblox widow says a male escort ran up a $ 6 million grief scam. We're going to get into that. In Alaska, a man playing with a gun shoots his girlfriend, then turns the weapon on himself. And in West Virginia, a woman leaves her husband on the toilet for 19 hours.

1:50 I'm not making light of that, but have you ever sat on the toilet for a really long time? Your legs go numb. Yeah. It's not fun. 19 hours? 19 hours on the toilet. Well, he died. Yeah. A Florida mother is arrested after sex acts you're not going to believe with who, I guess you could say, a California man stalks a woman for a year, and then he eventually kills her. And it's one of the worst stalking incidents that I've read about in a long time. So we're going to talk about that. Parents are accused of feeding a child a THC gummy and then leaving to go to an LSU game here at home. Do we do parent of the year awards in Baton Rouge? Because...

2:34 I don't think they'll win if we do. Right. It's a full plate of greed, stupidity, violence, and people who never should have been left in charge of anyone, including themselves. So pull up a chair. Let's get into this week's edition of Crime War Weekly. I'm Jim Chapman. And I am Kelly Jennings. All right, Kelly, any thoughts before we get into today's episode? Yeah, I have to tell you all this. I adopted a hamster. I spent $ 100 at the vet getting it antibiotics because it got sick. The antibiotics did not work. Guess why, Jim? Why? Because it's a long story. It's a female. But now I have to pay for a hamster hysterectomy. And what does this have to do with crime?

3:14 Because I feel like this is just I should have known I should have been warned of this. It's it's terrible. And I've been thinking about it all day. Did you even know hamsters could have hysterectomies? It's awful. Yeah. That's my beginning thoughts. You always ask me my final thoughts. Those are my beginning thoughts. So my pocketbook's being hit because of a $ 25 critter. Yeah. Let it go, Kelly. Just let it go in the woods somewhere. I can't do it. I can't do it. All right. Let's get into CrimeWire Weekly for today. And we're going to start off with our favorite Powerball winner that has been arrested yet again. We've covered this guy in the past. and he's back. Now, there's a version of this lottery story everybody likes. A $ 2 ticket, a gas station, mama gets her debt paid, right? Mother's Day comes early for that lady. But James Farthing bought that version in April of 2025 when he originally won. His jackpot was $ 167. 3 million, y'all. The biggest Powerball prize that state had ever paid out. So this dude went from no money to just filthy rich. He took the cash option.

4:25 That was 77.3 million. And he said he was splitting it with his mother, Linda Grizzle. Great. Sounds like, you know, from here on out, it's going to be easy breezy for this guy. Well, She said that she's going to have a great Mother's Day. He told a local news station he caused her a lot of stress in the past because this guy had a record. So he had been arrested several times. It was not an easy time for his mother. And so he wins this money and he's like, man, I'm going to give half this to my mama and we're not going to have to worry about it no more. Well, 17 months later, deputies in that same town are knocking on a car window at four in the morning trying to wake this guy up.

5:10 And this would turn into arrest number five since he's gotten that big jackpot. Shortly before 3 a.m. on September 20th, somebody in the Georgetown area called in a white Ford Mustang with a temporary tag sitting at an intersection. At an intersection. The car rolled on. and parked by the EV chargers at a Walmart. Deputies get there at 4.04. The engine's still running. Farthing, who is 51, incidentally, is alone. He's asleep in the passenger seat. And they had to bang on the glass more than once before he came to. So basically, he was intoxicated. He was drunk. He had the bloodshot eyes. He slurred speech. He had trouble keeping his balance. They could smell alcohol and marijuana in the area.

6:00 So deputies wrote that he was manifestingly under the influence of alcohol and a danger to himself and other people because he could have put that Mustang back on the road. So Farthing told them a woman drove him there and left him. Surveillance, however, exists and deputies said it showed the Mustang pull in and nobody get out of the car. So he basically got from the driver's seat to the passenger seat. So he was charged with alcohol intoxication in a public place, and he was booked into the detention center. Now, you would think this story started with that parking lot incident. But as I told you, that's just the latest chapter in this guy's arrest. So four days after winning the lottery in April of 2025, he and his girlfriend were at a beach resort. An altercation ensued. Pinellas County deputies said he kicked an officer who was trying to break the fight up. Charges on that included battery of a law enforcement officer. Then in November of 2025 in Lexington, he was indicted on felony endangerment and leaving the scene of a crash. Obviously, that was added to the pile.

7:12 In February of 2026, two months later in Kentucky, charged with intimidation of a participant in the legal process. Wow. So that means he went up to a witness and basically said, you better not tell the police anything. I got $ 77 million. I can pay somebody to take you out. Allegedly. Allegedly. So he gets in trouble for that. Then in March of 2026, second-degree burglary and marijuana possession. He's accused of walking into a home, taking $ 12, 000 in cash. This is a dude with $ 77 million. Now, those charges were later dropped in May 2018. Uh, but you know, it doesn't mean it didn't happen. It just means the charges were dropped. And then in July of 2026 gets worse for this guy. First degree strangulation, domestic violence related. And, uh, apparently after a boating trip, he gets into an argument with a woman inside his house and he tries to strangle her. So he bails out for that. And, uh, those charges are still pending.

8:14 So it sounds to me like this guy's got either alcohol or substance abuse issues that seem to somewhat exacerbate his behaviors. And that's not something money is going to get out of you. If that was the case, then we wouldn't have all these celebrities with problems and addictions and legal issues and all that kind of stuff. So sometimes it would have been so much cooler if this would have been someone who won the lottery and then went around town just like, doing cool stuff with the money. I would love that. If I won the lottery, I would like to go around town and just walk up to a kid who's like on the toy aisle or something and just, you know, hand him a thousand dollars and say, have at it, bud, you know, get all the toys you want or just fun stuff like that. But I don't know, this guy's getting to be a pain in my ass. And I think a judge is going to have enough of him very shortly.

8:58 Well, and he, before he ever had any money, He had quite an arrest record. Right. This is just not out of character for him. And you can sure give him a lot of money, but it's not going to change who he is. Right. So there you have it. There it is. All right. We're going to go just right down the road to Lake Charles, Louisiana. And a home health worker is behind bars after police say he poured bleach into a water bottle and handed it to the disabled man that he was paid to care for, telling him, quote, here, drink this. The incident happened Monday evening, September 14th, at a residence in Lake Charles. The police were called around 7.30 after a relative living in the home reported what they described as a suspicious circumstance. The police arrived and they identified the caretaker as Reginald Andre Wilson, 30 years old, of Lake Charles, and he was an employee of Heaven on Earth Network. The client, Marshall Huntsberry, 48, is physically and mentally disabled and unable to care for himself, authorities said. Family members have said that Huntsberry was struck in a hit and run incident years ago and has been unable to walk since. I'm assuming unable to work too, honestly, if you're having that many difficulties. But according to the investigators, Huntsberry drank from the bottle and immediately noticed it tasted like bleach. He contacted a relative who confronted Wilson and police say Wilson admitted putting bleach in the water. The agency was contacted, and Wilson was forced off the property before officers arrived. Police later located him and arrested him without incident, and he was booked into the Calcasieu Parish

10:28 Correctional Center with a bond set at $ 70, 000. Wilson is going to face charges of aggravated battery, cruelty to persons with infirmities, and mingling of harmful substances. Family members posted home security footage that police reviewed and collected as evidence, and in the recording, Wilson is seen walking to the laundry area taking a large jug, pouring a substance into a water bottle, shaking it, and handing it back to Huntsberry. Audible in the video includes that line where he says, here, drink this. Family members later say Huntsberry was evaluated and he is okay. Relatives also said that they wanted answers about how the person trusted to care for him allegedly became the person accused of putting him in danger. Some family comments reported that the agency had not even reached out to them after the incident. even though the company said it had taken the client to an emergency room.

11:20 Heaven on Earth Network posted a statement on social media the day after the video circulated. They have fired Wilson and they said that they're cooperating with local and state authorities. Their quote was Heaven on Earth Network administration and staff are deeply saddened to see what transpired in the recent video shared on social media concerning a client and one of our staff members. The statement read, I would like to start off by saying that our client's health and safety is our number one priority and and that any abuse is not tolerated by our agency. We immediately took action and removed the worker and transported client, or our client, to ER to be evaluated. We are working with local authorities as well as state agencies according to our policies and procedures. And as of the latest local reporting last week, Wilson remains booked into the Calcasieu Parish Jail and the criminal investigation is ongoing.

12:09 Did you see the video? No. Okay, so the video is extremely, this guy is the devil, obviously. The video is very disturbing. What you basically see is just what you said. The guy goes, he grabs bleach out of a cabinet and pours it, just pours it, raw bleach, into that bottle, closes the bottle, and then shakes it up and gives it to this gentleman that is laying on a couch, obviously infirmed. Yeah. And, yeah. And you have to wonder why. Not that there's any answer that would justify it. But what the hell are you doing?

12:51 Yeah, it's just evil. It's just– Some people are just evil. Yeah. There is no why. Yeah. There could be never any why you would do something. But thank God this guy tasted it. It was bleach. Yeah. And, you know, bleach, you're going to taste. I mean, it's not like you're putting– Something in there that, oh, I'm wondering what that tastes. I mean, you're going to smell it. You're going to taste it. And thank God he didn't just take a giant swig of it and swallow it. I know. And then you wonder, like, what if I'd be reviewing any other cases that he may have had a case management to. Because you have some people that can't even communicate. And you could have been putting that in their eye, you know, in whatever. So that's terrible. Yeah, it's scary.

13:31 That hurts my heart. Very scary. Mm-hmm. All right, let's go to Texas. And a tragic story here in Texas as Victor Gonzalez, who is 34, a father of two, he was arranging to sell property through Facebook Marketplace. This is on Sunday, September 13th. Investigators say the meeting which took place in North Harris County was actually a setup. Gonzalez was robbed at gunpoint. The suspects then fled the scene. Gonzalez called 911, reported the robbery. and told the dispatcher he was actually chasing the suspects. He gave a vehicle description and the direction where they were traveling as the chase moved through North Harris County. Now, dispatchers warned him to stop. They said the pursuit was dangerous. He later told the dispatcher he had been shot and then stopped responding. Deputies found him and he was pronounced dead at the scene from at least one gunshot wound. Now, surveillance video did capture three gunshots during the confrontation. On Friday, September 18th, the Harris County Sheriff's Office arrested Anthony Castro, who was 17, and charged him with capital murder. He has not entered a plea.

14:43 A hearing is set for September 30th. Investigators have not publicly confirmed whether he fired the fatal shot or whether other suspects were made at large. A witness who picked up Castro after the robbery told deputies that Castro directed him to a location to collect others, that he heard a gunshot and then he saw Castro run back to the vehicle and tell him to go, and then saw Castro fire toward the vehicle that was chasing them. The witness also said Castro had told him he had, quote, just hit a leg. Gonzalez's wife, Myra Gonzalez, said her husband was widely known and devoted to his family and Everyone who knew him, he had friends everywhere. He was just a great man. She and Victor had two young children.

15:29 Losing the father of my kids has been the worst thing that ever happened to me. They loved him so much, and her warning was blunt. Take what happened to me and my family as a learning lesson. That Facebook market, don't trust people. Be careful. Sergeant Sidney Miller of the Sheriff's Office Homicide Division also said, You can't chase robbery suspects. Property can be replaced. A life cannot. The office also repeated standard online sale advice. Meet in public places. Don't go alone. Share a live location. Keep personal details limited and don't bring large amounts of cash and walk away if something doesn't feel right. Authorities have not publicly identified what Gonzalez was trying to sell and Castro was booked into.

16:18 The Harris County Jail. Throw your life away because you want to set up somebody and rob them. And then you're going to run and say, I hit a lick to the person that's driving you. Like, how dumb. Gangster. Your 17-year-old loser is what you are. That's something Kelly would say. I hit a lick. No, I wouldn't. I could see you using that slang. I probably would. But I wouldn't rob somebody either. Like, I would get ice cream and then lick it and be like, ooh, I hit a lick. Like, I'd be dumb like that. But, you know, you snuff out the life of somebody. I'll tell you something about that, though, that kind of I didn't like. Maybe it was just a snippet. But I didn't like that they were kind of condemning the victim, saying you can't chase robbery suspects. You're not supposed to. Well, you shouldn't.

16:58 Right, you shouldn't. That doesn't mean I wouldn't. Right. But I mean, the commonsensical thing is to tell people that's very unsafe. Yeah, but I just, I don't know, the way they worded that, he could have said, don't shoot people, you know, but. Or don't rob people. Or don't rob people. But yeah, I mean, you don't know that the money that was taken from him, that might have been his paycheck to feed his kids that week. You don't know. And you don't know why people do what they do. Like they said, your life can't be replaced. No, obviously, it's not smart to do that. I'm just saying the way that that was approached seems a bit, you know, I don't know, victim blamey almost. Yeah, I don't think that was the intent. I see what you're saying, but I don't think that... I think their intent was just to say it's not worth it.

17:39 To protect others. Yeah, it's not worth it. It's really not, and they'll get them. They'll find them. Just give them the information, and they'll track them down. But I'm glad that he's going to go to prison. Yeah, and somebody else is going to hit a lick. Huh? Nice. Yeah, 17-year-old. Come here, little man. Come here, little boy, with your smooth face and chest. I got something for that ass. Okay. Okay. This next story makes me proud for a lot of reasons. But a possible school shooting was prevented in Arkansas last month because of an anonymous tip line started by the Sandy Hook Promise. And this is the group's noted 20th possible shooting that the nonprofit has thwarted.

18:20 Wow. That is an incredible milestone, I guess, to say the least. Imagine that. All the children. 20 times. Yeah. Like, I got goosebumps. Think about how many people's children... Possibly could have been possibly were saved by this. So on August 10th, the Crawford County Sheriff's Office arrested a 14 year old boy and charged him with threatening to commit an act of mass violence on school property. The student, who has not been publicly named because he's a minor, had allegedly posted threats on several social media platforms, including, quote, been thinking about shooting up a school. I have a gun, a plan and a list. Now, I have to add something here. If you think that that's just stupid 14 year old talk, the next part's scary. Another post showed that same teen with a handgun, which he indicated that he planned to use.

19:06 I mean, that's... So he's got the weapon to back up the talk. He's got the access, and access is a huge component of this. The alleged threats came to light when a tipster reached out to Sandy Hook Promise through its Say Something Anonymous reporting system, which notified the FBI. In the recent Arkansas case, an anonymous tip submitted through the Say Something Anonymous reporting system combined with swift action by law enforcement enabled an intervention before a potential tragedy could occur. Since 2018, Say Something Anonymous reporting system and its programs have helped prevent at least 20 planned shootings, marking a significant milestone in the organization's work to end school shootings. As students head back to school, the milestone serves as a timely reminder that prevention is possible. And I agree with that. If people will talk, you know, you can save your own life and others. So on December 14th of 2012, I think we're all familiar with this, 20 first graders and six educators were killed when a 20-year-old gunman entered Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. They shot them or he shot them point blank. range with an AR-15-style Bushmaster semi-automatic rifle. On January 14th of 2013, so just a month after the tragedy, several family members whose loved ones were killed started this nonprofit to prevent school shootings from ever happening. Twenty averted school shootings is a testament to the power of people who recognize something is wrong and have the courage to say something. And that's according to Nicole Hockley, who is the co-founder and CEO.

20:35 SHP co-founder Mark Barden added, as kids head back to school, we must equip them with the tools to recognize warning signs and the courage to say something, and we must be ready to listen and act. Besides the tip line, the nonprofit also created the Know the Signs program to teach students and educators how to recognize when someone is in crisis or at risk of hurting themselves or others. Wow. And I have to add something. I think it's poignant that there were 20 kids killed, and then this is 20 averted school shootings. It's almost like each life has saved multiple lives, you know. Countless probably. Yeah. I mean, you just don't even know. You can't even put a number on it. And I didn't even realize this existed, this nonprofit. That's why I liked this story so much is they deserve their flowers.

21:21 Yes. You know, obviously the co-founder of this was a victim in that shooting at Sandy Hook and turned just the most horrific thing you could ever possibly imagine as a parent and tried to something for something to come out positive. Yeah. And this nonprofit is that lady's life work. And wow, what, what a great nonprofit to support. Yeah. And in terms of true crime, this is best case scenario. This is absolute best case scenario. And what a testament to your child's life, not being lost in vain and, And that in the beginning of it, it was something we all couldn't grab or put our minds around. And now here we are all these years later saving lives.

22:06 I think it's incredible. I agree. And you said something very poignant, which is, you know, if you see something, say something and take every threat serious. Yeah. The majority of them may not be, but err on the side of caution and tell somebody. I tell my students this, guys, and you might could tell your own kids this. that once someone starts shooting, they don't care where the bullets go. They don't care because they're past that point. So just because you're their friend doesn't mean they won't kill you because they don't care. But the other thing is this, let's say that you speak up and you say something, because like the school I worked at has a tip line that the kids can just log into and put the tip in. Usually they put a bunch of malarkey in there, but sometimes they don't. And even if you're wrong, it's okay. But if you're right, if you are right, Not only have you saved your own life and all of your friends' lives, but you have made an opportunity for that young person to not throw their life away.

23:01 Right. You're giving them the opportunity to be corrected and to have an opportunity to change their life. And I think that's a pretty cool thing. All right, Kelly. Let's go to Lustful Lawbreakers. All right. All right, we're going to tell you about a Vermont couple today who was recently arrested in Florida for allegedly having sex on a public beach and being nude.

23:48 Well, how would you have sex on a public beach and not be nude? Well, you could pull shorts down or something. That's still nude. To the side, maybe. Well, I'm not going to get into all the ways that that can happen. I was trying to set you up so bad. It's possible. Police say last Saturday they got reports of a woman. She was skinny dipping in the ocean. They arrived and beachgoers pointed them. All the cops arrived. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Lights and everybody's flying. Every cop arrived. I promise you. So they show up on the scene. A woman is skinny dipping in the ocean. Beach goers say there she is. It pointed in the direction of a new woman. When police asked her why she was naked, she told them she didn't realize it wasn't allowed and that she was able to swim naked in the water where she was from. Police asked where she was from and she told them Vermont. Police interviewed more beach goers who said the woman and her husband, Tiana and Alexandra Marinville were Alexander rather Marinville were seen apparently having sex on the beach as well. Both Vermonters were arrested for exposure of sexual organs because I guess they didn't actually see them having sex and the people were denying it. Now, before you laugh at the comment that Tiana made about it being legal where she comes from in Vermont, I looked it up and get this.

25:06 In Vermont, state law does not have a general ban on public nudity. But local towns and cities can create their own rules. So there's no general ban, meaning Vermont does not have a specific state law that makes simple public nudity illegal. However, state laws like indecent exposure do apply if a person acts in a sexual or lewd way or exposes themselves to a child with bad intent. Mere nudity with sexual intent is generally distinct from these crimes. So taking off clothes in public spaces is traditionally faced stricter rules than being naked outside if you left your home that way in Vermont. Now, Vermont law does let local municipalities pass their own decency and public safety rules.

25:58 And an example of this is in the city of Burlington. which banned public nudity via a city council vote showing genitals or the anal region in public spaces within Burlington leads to fines starting at a hundred dollars with exceptions for permitted events like the world naked bike ride. Apparently they have that there, but you can still go topless with no problem in that city. So after dissecting all that, I'm like, wait a minute, If you leave your house and you're already nude, you're good. But if you get to a public space in Vermont and you take off your clothes, you're not good. You have to actually leave your house nude. Okay. Any realtors in Vermont, give me a call. Sounds like fun to me. We all go around.

26:49 It's like, this is horrible unless you're riding a bike. Loud and free. Unless you're riding a bike on this day. Right. Yeah, they have a world naked bike ride. I want to do that. I encourage you to do that. Don't say I won't. I'm going to do the world naked bike ride. Any Vermonters, message us. Please. Or comment on Facebook or whatever. And let us know if all this is actually accurate. Because this is the second state I've come across where you can walk around at least with your boobs out. And ain't nobody... nobody can call the cops. So part of me wonders if it's that way because like you can breastfeed in public and I get, I mean, I get that you got to feed your baby or whatever, but like, and I wonder if, if that's just to clear something like that up or do they really just not care? I mean, I.

27:33 Guess some people think it's not the government's job day. You put your clothes on. I don't know. But as a parent, if you're like, you would think, but, and it does have laws that say if it's in a sexual way, but how can it not be? I guess if you're, what do they call them? People that, Nudists? Nudists? I guess if you're a nudist, supposedly nudists don't look at it the same way as... Like I would. If I saw a woman walking down with her top off. You'd look is what you would do. Yes, I would. I'd laugh. I mean, it's a natural reaction. I don't know. It's just an odd, it's an odd way that things go. I guess because we're from where we're from. And if you walk out here, you walk out and Livingston Bears of Louisiana with no clothes on, they're going to show up quick to take you to jail.

28:17 Real fast. You can't imagine that. It's like a whole different country. I know. I mean, Mardi Gras, you know. You let some boobies come out of Mardi Gras, but. Well, there you have it. That is your Lossful Lawmakers. All right. Well, let's go to Abita Springs, and that's Louisiana, right? We have our Abita Springs root beer, right? Yeah. Isn't that from here? Yeah. That is Abita Springs. You don't know where Abita Springs is? I do, but I felt stupid for a second whenever I said it, so I had to think about it. And then my brain also side-flashed to Britney Spears. Because wasn't she from nearby? She was. No, you're thinking because Kentwood is where she's from. I'm thinking about Kentwood water. Yeah, and Abita Springs water. Okay, we got root beer and water down here, guys, if you want some. Okay, well, this is not a laughing matter, though. A 31-year-old Abita Springs, Louisiana man who used the Snapchat handle Slimy Dude pled guilty this week to child rape and related drug charges and was sentenced to 50 years in prison with no chance of parole.

29:11 Allen Edward Tate Jr. entered the plea on the second day of jury selection, cutting short a trial that had been set to begin in the 22nd Judicial District. Judge Vincent Lobello imposed a 50-year sentence with no parole, no probation, and no suspended sentence. So I kind of was like, well, what do you mean during jury selection? But obviously, he was playing his cards the long game to see if they'd get a plea deal, and they were not going to offer that to him. Good. So he pled before all his business, you know, was put out there. But according to the St. Tammany Parish District Attorney's Office, Tate pled guilty to second-degree rape, sexual battery of a victim under 13. and two counts of conspiracy to distribute a narcotic to a person under 18.

29:53 He also pled guilty in other pending cases to carnal knowledge of a juvenile conspiracy to distribute a Schedule III controlled substance and illegal carrying of a weapon while in possession of drugs. Prosecutors said Tate first contacted the victim and her older sister on Snapchat and offered to supply them with vapes. Court records state, Then in March 2024, he went to their home, lured the younger girl, who at that point was 12, into his vehicle, locked the doors, and sexually assaulted her. Covington police opened the rape investigation in September of 2024 after the girl's mother reported that her daughter, who was then 13, had been abused months earlier. But hours after the assault, St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's deputies had arrested Tate on drug charges. Investigators later recovered the victim's DNA from shorts that Tate was wearing at the time of the arrest. So don't tell me that little girl wasn't there if her DNA is in your pants.

30:49 At the time of the 2024 case, Tate was already out on bond in a separate felony carnal knowledge case. Prosecutors said that the case alleged he coerced a 15-year-old into a sex act in exchange for a marijuana vape pen. So I guess we're seeing a pattern here. Mm-hmm. When Tate was arrested in October of 23, police searched his home and vehicle. and reported finding six guns with body armor, along with fentanyl, ecstasy, MDMA, liquid LSD, methamphetamine, cocaine, Adderall, and hundreds of THC edibles and cartridges. In a victim impact statement on Tuesday, the younger girl's mother told Tate he was exactly where he deserved to be. You did this to my daughter. I know she's not the only one, she said. You'll never be able to do this to another kid again. District Attorney Colin Sims said the office would not ease up on defendants who target children or move lethal drugs into the parish. Whether poisoning our neighborhoods with legal narcotics like fentanyl or targeting young girls, offenders who exploit children will face uncompromising prosecution, and the sentence resolved multiple cases tied to both Covington Police and St.

31:53 Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office, and he will serve that 50-year term without eligibility for early release. Sounds like he needs Brad Cassio on his ass, right? Bring your scissors. Castrate him. Yeah. Yeah. Look, slimy dude. Ooh, we should give him a nickname, Castrate and Casio. Or Casio the Castrator. Maybe that would be better. I like that better. Yeah. Well, if y'all are wondering what we're referring to, you've got to listen to Unspeakable from last week when she interviewed Brad. Awesome dude. Does an amazing job. Local assistant district attorney. Prosecuting pedos like this idiot right here who's slimy dude. Perfect name. Even he knew it. Right. When he picked his handles, you know, not much you can say except for there's not a punishment good enough for that guy.

32:41 And that's evil. I mean, you had to think this through. You had to plan it. You had to offer stuff. I mean, this is these vape bins. That is all grooming, y'all. Yeah. Every case I've ever covered on. pedophiles, they're, they're giving them things and they're doing that. Even the females, like in bad teachers that I cover, they're giving the students money. They're actually paying for these kids, you know, to do unspeakable things with them. Right. So sick. Yeah. It's sick. And look, hopefully by the time that 50 years is up, he'll either die or his own shit won't work. And so he'll just be an old shriveled up prune. Yeah. Exactly. All right. Let's go to, look, I've been dying to tell y'all this story. You ain't gonna believe this is one of the better stories that we're going to cover on this show. And that is something that has to do with scams. So this is a grief scam.

33:38 And if you were scrolling Facebook over the last few days, which is where I came across this, you probably saw an inside edition reel. Okay. It's grieving widow. a mail escort and $ 6 million gone, a $ 10 million buyout. And the comments were doing what the comments do, right? Well, here's the part the reel actually got wrong right out of the gate because I started researching it. And then we'll tell you the story, the way it actually sits in the court file. So Marianne Flippo is not the widow of the man who created Roblox, which is how it was promoted. Roblox was actually founded by a guy named David Bazuski. Flippo49 is the widow of Chad Flippo, who was an early programmer in the company. So very wealthy because he got in, you know, on the early stages of Roblox. And when these... Creative companies, when they form, they don't pay you the way normal people pay people.

34:41 They usually give you stock for these companies that are founded right from the beginning. When Elon Musk founded PayPal, his co-founders, they all just split stock. It wasn't cash trading. And when it took off, they were all multi-multi-millionaires. Same situation here. This guy was a software employee. He and his wife had been together... for 28 years or married 28 years, but they were together since they were 13. So she was deeply in love. You know, he was deeply in love. On August 5th of 2024, he actually died by suicide. He left her a fortune. Okay. And she never had any worries about money. So that's kind of the starting point in this story. Now, Flippo has what's known as vascular Eiler's Danlos syndrome.

35:34 Oh, I know about that. I have a friend who has a child with that. Okay. Well, that's a rare genetic disorder that makes blood vessels and organs tear very easily. Life expectancy is often put into the late 40s to early 50s. Now she's 49 at this point. The condition also makes her unusually sensitive to alcohol and medicine. Now, keep that in your pocket because it matters later on in this story. So a few months after the funeral, she needed a drug that had gotten scarce in the United States because of the war in the Ukraine. Still available in Italy was this drug, though. She doesn't speak Italian. She was kind of nervous about traveling alone. And a former co-worker points to a place called Cowboys for Angels. Hmm. So if that name sounds familiar, it should. It's High End Male Companions.

36:26 And it was featured on HBO's American Gigolos, which I actually watched that series. Did you really? It was awesome. Or Showtime, rather, not HBO. Reporting has also tied that agency to staffing parties for Sean Combs. And I covered that in that series. So Flippo says she thought she was hiring a personal assistant. Now, I don't know how you can mistake that. Maybe she did. Well, let me. Oh, I thought it was a personal. Yeah, it was a personal assistant. All right. I'm not throwing shade on her. Maybe she did. I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt. So the agency sends her a guy by the name of Gregory Starr. He's 38, silver hair, ice blue eyes, West Point graduate. He actually graduated in 2010 in chemical engineering, of all things. So he's smart. Army. He was a model. And on LinkedIn, he calls himself a health care private equity investor. So on Instagram, he looks like a man who paid a surgeon to become a statue. I mean, dude's carved out.

37:31 I mean, he's handsome guy and I'm a, I'm a straight male by the way, but handsome guy. She paid about $ 27, 000 for him to go to Italy with her. I don't went with her for 27,000. I'd be like, I'll just take the trip. Yeah. Okay. So separate hotel rooms on this trip. She said he made a move on her and she said she shut it down because she was still mourning her husband. She also told him about her money and, She had a lot of money, you know, maybe in small talk. The trip ends, but the phone calls didn't. The agency keeps reaching out and Star said he missed her. And she says, OK, well, I'll see you again. And this is where this story stops being kind of like a travel thing and starts looking like a billing statement. So in March 2025, she paid roughly $ 150, 000. So Star would be exclusive only to her. They break up that fall when she thinks he's seeing an ex, and then they get back together. December 1st of 2025, he moves into her West Side apartment, and she signs what's known as an independent contractor agreement. $ 368, 000 to keep him being her companion, with a clause about refunds if he cheats. Then another $ 90, 000 to extend that contract, added up with the Italy trip And you're in the neighborhood of $ 635, 000 before anybody says, you know, before anything goes any further. Then on April

39:02 30th of 2026, she closes on a nearly $ 16 million mansion. Six stories, 12 bedrooms, huge place. And in February of 2026, Filippo is post-surgery. She's fighting an infection. She's on gabapentin and codeine. And Star and an agency handler named Bridget Collins are with her on a trip tied to Star's mother. Flippo said they start pushing drinks, alcohol her way. Remember, she has those issues. In a hotel room at that point, she signs a $ 10 million exit agreement. So the pitch, according to her lawsuit, is pay this and Star is free of the agency. They get Then they can be together for real. So basically, if you pay $ 10 million, we're going to allow him to be with you forever and you won't have to continue paying the agency. She allegedly signed this and she even tried to wire the full $ 10 million. However, JPMorgan Chase, they suspected something's not right.

40:11 This chick's trying to wire $ 10 million. And so they block the transaction. Then they block a second attempt. Star said she opens up a joint account at Charles Schwab and she puts $ 6 million in it and she puts it into an account in his name only. So that account currently has $ 12. 61 in it from $ 6 million. Then the suit says he wanted another $ 4 million and threatened to disappear with what he already had if she doesn't pay. Her lawyer gets a look at the deal. He freaks out. He says, you're being swindled here. And she files suit for the $ 6 million back that she's already given this guy and a freeze on whatever's left, which was $ 12.

41:00 So this guy did respond to all that. And they talked to him via the New York Post. And he said that a lot of money went to the two of them. He said travel, living the life they were supposedly building, plus charity. He claimed about one million went to churches in Midtown in Atlanta and three million is still sitting somewhere, but he won't say where. He calls the whole thing a wild ride and said he was the one getting screamed at, hit, chased out of a townhouse, pressured, and he said the exit contract was her idea. He didn't even want it. His lawyer said you can't rewrite an entire relationship by simply filing a lawsuit after it ends.

41:44 The complaint tells a dramatic story, though, and that is that you never can be too careful. But my my question to you is, do you think he has a case here? Do you think she has a case? Because, I mean, she was. you know, you want to say this guy was taking advantage, but I mean, he was a gigolo and she knew it. She was dealing with an agency. Yeah. I, um, so just off of an article. Okay. So don't come at me if you know more than I know, because I, that all I know is what you've just basically said. Well, that's all I know. The fact that it started out with them in separate hotel rooms lends me to believe just on what I've heard here, that maybe at first, She did want to bring a guy to be a companion because she was nervous going overseas. And that's why there was a separate bedroom.

42:38 I believe that. I do, too. Now, once he got a taste of that richness and that lifestyle, first of all, he doesn't even look straight to me. And no hate towards anyone who is not. That's not what I mean here. What does straight look like? Not like that. Like he's very, um, I don't know. You can, our listeners can go look up. Allegedly straight. Yeah. Allegedly. Okay. But I just, so, so part of me goes, okay, well maybe then, you know, they hung out more. I think her money had a lot to do with it, obviously, because he's, because I mean, he got what? 300 and something thousand dollars, um, from the first go round. I'm sure the agency that he works for got their cut and all of that kind of stuff. But I just don't understand. This is why I think she may have some room to wiggle here because, I just don't understand what signing a $ 10 million contract was actually... Because he's not an indentured servant to that company. If he wanted to be with her, there was no contract necessary. He could just quit the company. They can't make you work for them. And then you go be with your woman.

43:46 There was no need for that. There was no obligation. I would have to see the contract between him and the agency. It may say something like if you meet a client through the agency and you continue a relationship in which you're getting money, we are owed a percentage because our agency facilitated it. Yeah, but their agency is not about true relationships. No, I mean, it's right. Right. So, of course, there's tons of minutia we could get into and argue back and forth. But off the top, I tend to believe her. Debate, not argue. You're right. Debate. This is how you debate. I hate that word. I always think argument because, like, in court, you're making your argument. But I believe her. I somewhat believe her because I don't find that– This was a real relationship in any way.

44:34 And the woman that was there with them, I have questions about that. So she's what the CEO of the company or was she a business manager? That woman that was. It sounded like she was a rep for the company. Yeah. Yeah. For the agency. Yeah. And I'm thinking that there's something there, too, that she and this guy got it in their minds that we could get a lot of money out of this girl. And so they started working their argument or their angle because of that. I just get that vibe. I could be wrong. This is all allegedly. I know nothing. I am a poor girl from Louisiana. Please don't come after me, rich people. But I'm just saying, I'm just looking at the photos and just the basis of the story. I'm just not buying his side of it. And $ 3 million is somewhere. Give me a break.

45:19 Yeah. And, you know. All of that being said, I think they certainly took advantage of this lady. She's mourning the death of her husband, who this was probably shocking to her because of the way he died. And so no matter what, her mental faculties aren't what they would have been had she not had that tragedy. And then in addition, she's got to worry about her own life. She's got a disease that She may not be around much longer. So at the end of the day, fuck him. Yeah. And what is it? And the other part, I guess, is what I'm saying is what does he bring to the table that she he's not bringing anything to the table for her? Attractiveness. That's it.

46:01 I don't agree. I mean, well, I mean, that's your taste. I know. Probably most women would find that guy attractive. And how many men? Date 20-year-old girls when they're 60. What do the 20-year-old girls bring to the table? Nothing. Good looking. Attractiveness. That's it. Right. So I don't find that to. Be a real relationship. It's just always different when a woman does it. I just don't find it to be a real, it doesn't give me the legitimacy that they were really building a life together. I just don't buy that. Right. Tennessee Wendy's manager is arrested. You want to know why? I'm going to tell you. So the restaurant manager has been arrested after admitting to cops that she tied her neurodivergent co-worker to a kitchen grill in And then bizarrely claimed it was part of a TikTok stunt.

46:45 What is neurodivergent? So according to the article, they're going to say that that's all encompassing of things like ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dysgraphia, and stuff like that. People, I think, over broadly use the word today. But that's just my personal opinion here. But the diagnosis is that when you have all those issues. Well, I think it's more of an umbrella term that he's got some kind of something against him. But I don't know that neurodivergent is actually a diagnosis. I think it's more of a, like if you said, it's not the same thing, but like when you say mental illness, that's not necessarily a specific diagnosis. It's just a category of things. Your diagnosis would be one of those. Either way, he shouldn't have been chained to a grill. You know what I'm saying? And I think anyone under normal circumstances wouldn't have allowed that. So she was taking advantage of his neurodivergent ways. So initially, Burton, who has since been fired from her role at this fast food restaurant, wasn't arrested because the worker wasn't injured, despite allegedly wrapping garbage bags around his legs and then tying him up to a grill. But a troubling video, which was recorded by a colleague, that showed the worker bound to the, what's the word I'm looking for? Grill, emerged. And so police started looking further into that once they saw the video. Now, Burton was quizzed earlier this month and claimed that the incident was part of a TikTok trend, and she tied a worker who is neurodivergent to a workstation. The incident was referred to Adult Protective Services and investigated by detectives

48:19 with a special victims unit. The investigation led to warrants being obtained for Burton's arrest. Burton has since been Charged with simple assault and false imprisonment, a misdemeanor offense which can carry up to a year in jail. Now, the top dogs at Wendy's were left outraged by the video. The chain's area manager branded her actions unacceptable, and that is why she is not here anymore. The manager said, Mishy, as they called her, because her name is Mishiko Burton. She was 19 years old. She's no longer a manager for us now. Burton's now former colleague also questioned her motive, despite what she told police. If there was a TikTok trend, then where's the TikTok? And this is Nicholas Murphy, who recorded that video that was released. Murphy said he felt a duty to speak up for his coworker. They deserve justice, he said. He deserves a person having his back. Doing the right thing is always the right thing to do.

49:10 And then this article we have said about 20% of the world's population is considered to be neurodivergent. And that is a term including ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, among others. There's a whole list of them. So I'm erring on the side that I'm thinking this is probably a high functioning, high functioning autistic person. I don't know that, but based on how I'm reading this. And so he was used basically and abused. That's why adult protective services was involved. Yeah. And it's crazy that the, The guy you mentioned said, you know, they're saying it's a TikTok trend, as if that would have made it okay. Right. Oh, well, it was a trend. Right. Well, then you can tie him to the grill. It's only if it were not a trend that he should get in trouble for it. I mean, either way, it's wrong.

49:55 Yeah. And I want people to understand that. And most of the people on our show are smart. Yeah. And you know that TikTok trends are dumb, and most of them result in bad things happening, like the... Knocking on people's dorm running. Remember they were shooting people for that? Because they were doing it in the middle of the night. Don't do stupid stuff. Or this beautiful young man that I saw on TikTok recently. He wanted to be a model. I mean, very handsome. But he followed that trend of the looks maxing. We covered that a while back. And he cut his eyelid. Anyway, he's blind now. His eye won't even open. I mean, that's just so dumb. Looks maxing. Looks maxing. Looks maxing. Come on. All right, let's go to Alaska.

50:37 And I don't know if we've been to Alaska in a long time, but we're going to go there now. Sad story. A young couple is dead after a man fatally shot his girlfriend while playing with a gun. According to police in Fairbanks, Alaska 911 dispatchers first received a call that a man had accidentally shot his girlfriend inside a home. This is around 9, 9, 12 p.m. local time on Wednesday, September 16th. Officials said the caller contacted 911 immediately and stayed on the line while officers went to the scene. Dispatchers heard a disturbance in the background of the call. When police arrived at the home, they found the woman dead and a man who was critically injured.

51:18 He was taken to a local hospital where he later died. The pair were identified as 22-year-old Landon Lawrence and 21-year-old Chloe McBrayer. During an investigation, police learned Lawrence shot McBrayer with a revolver while playing with the gun and pointing it at her. The caller, a friend of Lawrence's, immediately contacted 911. While the line was open with dispatch, the caller attempted to physically intervene when Lawrence obtained another firearm and then shot himself. The caller was interviewed by detectives and is not believed to have been involved in the shooting. McBrayer's friends and family remembered her as a loving, outgoing, all-American girl, saying she loved to be the center of attention.

52:04 And the grieving mother told the outlet that her daughter and Lawrence were stationed at Fort Wainwright in Alaska and were considering getting engaged. Quote, she went up to Fairbanks for the weekend one time and came back and was like, Mama, he's a really good guy. I talked to his mom. He seemed like he came from a really good family, and they were talking about getting engaged when all this happened. In the aftermath of her daughter's death, Hooper also shared that she's not mad at Lawrence's family. It was out of their control. There's nothing they could do about it, she said. I'm hurt because I don't know exactly what happened. I know my daughter loved him, and I know he loved her. In a release, the Fairbanks Police Department called the incident a tragic and preventable loss of life. And, of course, urge the community you don't play with firearms.

52:56 You know, because we're so limited on details on this one, it might be that he was goofing off and then shot her. I think that sounds like it was. Because there was another witness there. Yeah, and then panicked and was like, oh, my God, what have I done? And then shot himself, you know, out of just total grief. Total grief and guilt. Yeah. Yeah. And that's horrible. But, you know, her mother seems like a very reasonable person and very level-headed. You know, I'm not mad at his family. They didn't have anything to do with this at all, where a lot of people would lash out, you know. And that's just unfortunate. Young people snuffed out. All right, Jimothy, let's go into elderly outlaws. Get off my lawn. Okay. Okay. So a neglectful West Virginia wife is accused of.

53:40 Leaving her frail husband on the. Toilet for 19 hours, which ultimately led to his death. A week later, Margaret Rogg, 75, was arrested Tuesday after she left her 76-year-old husband on the can overnight, resulting in serious health conditions that contributed to his death. And this is according to the Monagalia County Sheriff's Office. That's a different one. Have you ever heard of that? Monagalia? All right. After her husband went to the bathroom around 3 p.m. on August the 20th, Rogg was unable to help him off the toilet. So instead of calling for help...

54:21 She left him unattended and unresponsive for 19 hours without food, no water, or his prescribed medications. And Rog basically watched her husband, who also, if this doesn't hurt your heart, suffers from dementia, Alzheimer's, and legal blindness. and she just watched him groan in pain. She didn't call anyone for help, and she later took herself to bed while her sickly husband was stuck on the toilet. The next morning around 10 a.m., a speech therapist arrived for an in-home visit with Rog's husband, and she called an ambulance after discovering the ailing man unresponsive and in dangerously poor condition. Her husband was rushed to the hospital where he was diagnosed with a slew of conditions, including heart failure, respiratory failure, pulmonary embolism, hypernatremia, sepsis, and rhabdomyolysis. And the sickened man was also found with wounds on his backside, shortness of breath, and an altered mental status. He died in the hospital 10 days later on August 31st. Investigators determined the elderly man's condition and injuries sustained from being left on the toilet were significant contributing factors to his death. Rogg allegedly made several self-incriminating statements to law enforcement, adult protection services, and family members throughout the investigation. She said that she was aware of her husband's need for assistance, but deliberately decided against providing any aid. Raw was arrested Tuesday on charges of abuse or neglect of an incapacitated adult, and she pled not guilty in court on Tuesday and posted a $ 75, 000 bond, according to online records.

55:51 Yeah, and, you know, when I kind of glanced over that story, one of the first things I thought was, she's also elderly. So what? I mean, it's like, why? Might be caretaker burnout. That's a real thing. I mean, I don't know. I might be totally wrong. She could just be a flat out evil person, but it could also be caretaker burnout where she just was tired of picking him up off the toilet because he's very sick. I mean, this is no joke. All the things that he had. I mean, that that rhabdomyolysis. is basically where your muscles deteriorate so fast and so quickly that muscle tissue is released into your blood. I mean, it's like, it's bad stuff. But I'm with you. She's 75. It sounds like he should have been in a care facility with all of his ailments and not.

56:47 Well, if you're able to take care of him regardless. Yeah. But. I don't know. But her comments made after all this is a disturbing thing to me. Right, because she said, I just left him there. She's basically saying, I knew it. Yeah. And left him there anyway. Terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible. And even though you're older, doesn't mean you can't make the wrong decisions. Sure. Awful. All right, let's go to Florida. And a Florida man was arrested after he allegedly tried to arrange a murder-for-hire plot against his neighbor to kill him over a drone dispute. Because that makes total sense, and that's what we're doing in today's time.

57:29 Well, the Lake County Sheriff's Office confirmed that David Butka... was charged with one count of solicitation to commit murder following this incident. Butka, who is 69, was already in custody after he pleaded no contest to a charge of aggravated assault following an incident involving the same victim on July 22nd. He was scheduled to be released on Thursday, September 17th, but a fellow inmate reported him to a jail supervisor on September 16th regarding allegations of the murder-for-hire plot, according to a probable cause affidavit. During the July incident, a witness told authorities Butka and a neighbor were involved in a civil dispute regarding the defendant flying a drone over their property. The victim said they left their home when they noticed a drone stopped above the house and pulled out his phone to record the ongoing civil issue involving that drone. They then claimed that Butka aggressively threw a rock at their vehicle, which left marks and dents all over it, and Butka was subsequently arrested after the incident.

58:41 He was in custody on that charge when he allegedly approached another inmate and on September 7th and solicited him to kill his neighbor. He allegedly told the inmate he had approximately $ 1. 3 million in the bank and would give him $ 5, 000 up front to kill. So, I mean, that's not funny, but, you know, you got $ 1. 3 million, you're offering him $ 5, 000. Yeah. He then allegedly shared the victim's personal address telephone number for name and physical description. So he was serious about this. And police said he also gave the inmate his credit card information, which the inmate gave to his wife. so that she could put $ 300 in his commissary. There you go. The inmate had written the information regarding the plot on a piece of paper, provided that to police officials at that jail. And that led to Buck getting hit with the additional charge. So there you have it. All over a drone. Yeah.

59:42 So that guy had no intentions of killing. Like, the guy was getting the money for his money. He wanted the commissary. He wanted the money lines. And then he probably wanted to work something out. You know, the snitches will go to the— I mean, I'm not telling you anything you don't know. They'll go to the prison officials and say, hey, I got some information if you can cut off some of my time. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But then again, my wife's going to go put money on my books first before I go. Hell yeah. $ 300 on that commissary. That's a lot of ramen noodles, man. All of this over a drone. Let me tell you what. I'm not an expert on aviation or anything like that. But I do know that the FAA does regulate and there are certain things about drones that can and cannot be done. So rather than kill your neighbor, why not inquire?

1:00:26 Why not get a report about it? And then why not move up the chain and go see if they're breaking some type of like federal law or state law or something like that and then get their ass locked up rather than getting locked up for the rest of your life. Like it's okay to get mad and maybe that neighbor with the drone was dead wrong in what they were doing. But then you take it to this level and you look like the idiot. Yeah. You look like an absolute freaking idiot. All right, and so this next one is going to involve stalking. And stalking is something that's so scary to me because it's unpredictable. You know, some crimes, you know someone's mad at you if they were chasing you or something because you robbed them or they robbed you or something. Like the story we just covered. Yeah, like you can see that escalating. But stalking is so different. So a California woman was shot and killed by a man who had harassed and stalked her for a year. The woman was identified as Shalini Thakur or Thakur.

1:01:17 I don't know how she would say it. Probably Thakur. Because it's kind of spelled like Tupac Shooker, but it's Thooker. Anyway, she's 38 years old of Sacramento. Thooker was killed on Tuesday, September the 8th by Rohit Rohit. Okay. We got the same damn name, first name and last name. A lot of Indian descent people do that. Okay. I stand corrected. Rohit Rohit is 22, and this happened near a Panera Bread at a shopping center. Just before 3 p.m. the day of the incident, Rohit arrived at the shopping center in his vehicle shortly before Thakur was dropped off at her vehicle, which is parked in the same lot. and began to accost her. Chilling footage from the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office shows that Thakur was running away from him as he chased her down. He then pulled out a firearm arm and shot her multiple times.

1:02:07 Then when she fell to the ground, Rohit walked over to her body and shot her in the head at close range. He fled the scene and died from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound when deputies tried to stop his vehicle and he slammed on the brakes. During the ensuing investigation, detectives learned that Rohit had been harassing and stalking Thakur since at least January when she discovered that an Apple AirTag was underneath the hood of her car. According to a restraining order, Rohit allegedly began stalking her in September of 2025. So it's like this girl was doing what she could legally do to try to get this guy to leave her alone. She knew him because he delivered door dash orders from an IHOP where she worked in Sacramento. Rohit's actions had grown increasingly alarming when in one incident he deflated the air in her tires of her vehicle and then followed her to work so he could offer her assistance. In a separate incident, he obtained a copy of her apartment key, entered her residence while she was sleeping, and claimed the following morning that he had entered because he was concerned something had happened to her when she didn't answer him.

1:03:11 Yeah. She definitely knew something was coming. Yeah. But I mean, what do you do? I mean, she's doing all the things that are legally in place for a law-abiding citizen to do. You get a restraining order. You warn people. I mean, what else do you do? Yeah. He got a key to your apartment. Right. You should have been arrested after that. I mean, you can't just do that. This is crazy. So according to the restraining order, Rohit tried to force her into marriage. Thakur initially declined to pursue charges or obtain a restraining order, but obtained one in May after deputies implored her to do so. On July 29th, she notified deputies that he had violated the restraining order when Rohit dropped off random grocery items at her front door. And this investigation is still ongoing.

1:03:54 Who killed Bobby Kennedy? Why are you asking me? Do you know? I don't know off the top of my head. I should know. And I know I should know, but I wasn't prepared for the question. Sirhan, Sirhan. Yes, Sirhan, Sirhan. So Rohit, Rohit, Sirhan, Sirhan. Some people have the same name, first and last. I don't, I don't. You don't follow that. I don't follow that. No, I get it. Okay, so on this one. Wait, when was Bobby Kennedy killed? What year was that? 1969, I believe. Yeah, and that's. 68 or 69. Like when you say it, I recognize it. But I mean, I was born in the 80s. So I don't, that's not something that's. Well, I was not born then either. Well, I know. I was born in 75. But it's still closer. 74. 74.

1:04:35 You know what I'm saying? Like, it would probably still be something on the news when you were little, like, still brought up, wouldn't you think? I guess. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I just thought that was common knowledge. John Wilkes Booth, I know he killed, too. Well, there you go. That was 200 years ago. So you know who killed Abraham Lincoln, but you don't know who killed Robert Kennedy? Well, Abraham was in my history book. Robert Kennedy wasn't. Are you sure about that? Well, I mean. I bet he was. I mean, we didn't study it like Abraham Lincoln. All right. Let's cut it. Leave me alone. I'm going to let you off the hook on that one. All right. I'm going to tell you about. that though obviously there's tons of warning signs here what a nut job to meet someone and look when you no offense here but you look at this guy and you look at this girl and there's no way that girl is ever dating that guy to begin with I mean they're in two different leagues I know that happens every now and then but this dude was a freaking nut job and you're gonna make a copy of her key to her home and uh What a horrible, tragic story. And crazy.

1:05:44 But it really does beg the question in this instance. Or it proves something, too, that she was wanting to just, like, make it go away. I don't want to, like, entice this guy. I don't want to have reports against him. I don't want to deal with all that. But then the police are like, no, ma'am, you need to do this so that we can hold him accountable the next time that he breaks the restraining order. Mm-hmm. And I get it from her point of view. She's like, no, just he's stupid. He's harmless, you know, like whatever. But then once she realized, okay, this is progressing, then she did everything she was supposed to do. Yeah. I mean, if somebody wants to kill you, there's not a whole lot you can do. To stop it. I know. It's just devastating. That's the sad thing about it. Yeah. I mean, all right, let's go to Delaware. Okay. And I'm going to tell you about a 74-year-old man who has been charged with manslaughter for after he allegedly mistook a woman for a deer and fatally shot her while hunting in Delaware. According to the Delaware State Police, troopers were called to an open field. This is in the town of Ellendale around 7.40 p.m. last Friday. Troopers found a victim, later identified as 39-year-old Maria Soto from Georgetown, Delaware, and began performing life-saving measures. She was transported to the hospital.

1:06:55 where she was pronounced dead. According to the police, Soto had been walking through the field with a man and two children at the time of the incident. Troopers then spoke with a hunter who was nearby, 74-year-old Walter Moorhead, and investigators said they determined that he had fired the shot that struck Soto. and he was taken into custody. Investigators found that Moorhead was hunting deer from a ground blind, a camouflaged shelter, y'all, that is placed at ground level so you can hide from the deer. Moorhead believed he saw a deer and fired his rifle, striking the victim. Moorhead now faces several charges, including manslaughter and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, as well as three felony counts of first-degree reckless endangerment. He was released after posting a $ 43, 000 cash bond. And of course, detectives are asking for anyone with information to contact them.

1:07:53 But a tragic incident while hunting that I don't think this guy intended to kill this lady. This can happen real easy deer hunting. That's why you wear Hunter's Orange and all those things when you're hunting. I can't tell you how many times when I was younger, 11, 12 years old, hunting and there would be people in tree stands and i would walk through a field and they they were lifting their rifle like and i have on orange hat in an orange vest and they're still lifting their rifle because they see the shuffling of the bushes do. They know how many yards away he was i'm just curious he didn't say oh because like if you threw up your scope and you looked i would be curious like how did you not i.

1:08:37 Mean you if you it's possible If you don't fully see a person and you just see like movement, sometimes they'll see like an arm and think that's part of the deer. Yeah. And it's horrible. You need to fully see a deer before you shoot it. And that's why. Yeah. Tragic. Yeah. I don't know enough about it, but I was waiting for you to be like, they were neighbors. and there was a dispute over property or something. And that's why he's only being charged with manslaughter. Yeah. Because it was reckless. He didn't check. He should have looked before you. Fire and all of that. You need to see the whole deer. Yeah. I mean, based on what we know right here, it doesn't seem like he was out for blood or anything. He just. And I also noticed it was 7.40 p.m., so it was probably dusk out there, and so you're struggling to see anyway. They're not hunting, so they don't have on Hunter's Orange. Right. But also, if you're someone that's not hunting, but you're going in the woods or something like that, and it's deer hunting season, wear Hunter's Orange.

1:09:34 Yeah, yeah. Not that that, you know, is her fault. Right. But I'm just saying, shit like this, I'm not going to call this an accident because he should have saw her. But things like this happen, and you have to be proactive. So Louisiana, guys, we're coming right back here to Louisiana. And admittedly, at the time that we are recording this, we have been through a trauma in our state insofar as football was concerned. You don't want to bring it up, do you? I'm okay. You're good now? Yeah. We almost beat him. Come back on him. Come back on him in the second half, and I'm going to put belt to ass. I didn't even call. If we had five more minutes, we would have won.

1:10:15 I didn't even call Jim because I knew that he was going to be in a dark place. Yeah, I was not happy that evening at all. At least you're not these two morons right here from Acadiana. So an Acadiana couple is facing several charges after their young child took a THC gummy, and then the couple left to attend LSU's game against Louisiana Tech. This is according to the authorities. So Mary Cormier, 36, and David Butt, which is interesting because you just told a story about a guy named David Buttkiss or something, didn't you? Yeah, I don't think his first name was David, but he might continue. Either way. And Mr. Butt, 34.

1:10:56 He spells it B-E-T-T. That's how it is right here. Wow. Okay, David. Mr. Butt. They each face two. I'm sorry. I'm sure. They both face the following counts. Second degree cruelty to juveniles, child desertion, and then contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. And that's actually three counts there. So jail records do show that they've been released after posting bond. But on September the 13th, the Scott Police Department learned that a four-year-old had ingested a THC gummy. Officers learned that Cormier and Butt knew that the child had taken the gummy. But instead of taking him to seek immediate medical attention, they decided to leave the child in the care of another kid. And they left. They went to go watch the LSU football game and just left the kid there.

1:11:39 I'm embarrassed by your face. I am too. So the couple returned home eight hours later. And they found that the four-year-old was breathing but unresponsive, according to the police. And the child was taken to an area hospital. At last check, he does remain in the ICU. Anybody can be a parent, man. I mean, you can't make that shit up. I don't even know what to say about that. I've never done a THC gummy. What does that do to you? High. That kid was high out of his mind. Okay. Have you done a THC gummy? No. I really have not. But I can tell you this, there are- But it makes you. High like smoking a joint does?

1:12:20 You're high as a kite, man. I mean, you got synthetic. It depends on- I mean, when I think of a gummy, I just think it would be weak. It depends. I don't know. I mean, I've never had one. But it's also a child, right? And so some of these gummies also have, quote, unquote, dosages, even though it's not, you know. So, like, you're only supposed to take a quarter of the gummy. So if this kid took it like a gummy bear. Yeah, like M & M' s. Yeah, that kid was freaking high out of his mind. Oh, my God, that's horrible. It's horrific. And the poor fella's probably smelling colors and, you know. Smelling colors. Yeah, that kid's high out of his mind. This poor four-year-old is freaking blitzed. He's still in the ICU. Yeah, that's terrible.

1:13:00 I mean, he's going to be high for a week. Hopefully he'll live if he's in the ICU. I don't think that, yeah, I mean, there could be other implications, I'm sure. And I don't know if he has any medical conditions, and I don't know why he was unresponsive. It's just limited to what we have here. But, I mean, that's terrible. I mean, this poor kid, imagine what he was going through, and he's got another kid in charge of him. Dumb. Shame on you. Absolute shame on you. All right. Any final thoughts, Kelly? No. Do you have any final? Oh, yeah, I do have some final thoughts. If you're following the Lindsay Clancy or you've been following the Lindsay Clancy trial, I've started. Never heard of it.
