1
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:20.960
Hey everyone, and welcome back. I don't have topics that

2
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:22.879
I'm going to cover. I'll just tell you a few

3
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:25.600
of them. But there's a reason for that today, Kelleen.

4
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:28.079
And why is that y'all are lucky that the show

5
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:32.359
is going on because I almost spider monkeyed and it

6
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:38.399
scratched out Jimothy's eyeballs. She did because we already recorded this.

7
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:42.479
This is our take two of this. Because someone did

8
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:43.880
not press the record button.

9
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:46.799
I would be that person, and I will say that

10
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:49.960
we had an hour of the best crime you've ever

11
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.960
heard of your life. It was really good. And uh yeah,

12
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:56.640
like Kelly said, I never hit the record button for

13
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.079
the audio, so it was just our mouths moving. You

14
00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:02.000
wouldn't have known what we were saying, and I figured

15
00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:05.400
you wanted the audio in addition to the video. So quickly,

16
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:08.120
before we get into just a few of the topics,

17
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.400
I'm going to mention, I do want to mention that

18
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:14.200
we play this entire thing commercial free, because I've had

19
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:17.000
several people ask me do we have a commercial free version.

20
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:20.840
We do. We upload that to our individual patreons. And

21
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:24.519
not only do we upload a video commercial free edition,

22
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:28.680
we also show pictures of everything we're talking about like

23
00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:32.000
the news, so as you're watching it, you'll see that

24
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.680
when we talk about that particular crime, we'll have a

25
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.959
picture of maybe the lineup photo for the person, or

26
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:41.480
the booking photo or whatever. So check it out. Definitely

27
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:44.519
worth the cost of admission, and we'll get into the

28
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:47.319
topics for today. We're going to talk about a North

29
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:51.680
Carolina teacher who was killed by an intruder while she

30
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:54.840
was on the phone with nine to one. One very

31
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:58.439
tragic story there out of Raleigh, North Carolina. We're also

32
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:01.079
going to talk about a Kentucky woman and who was

33
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:08.120
charged with fetal homicide after allegedly self induced abortion via

34
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.879
an abortion pill. Well, Kelly's gonna bring you that story.

35
00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:14.199
We're gonna talk about a ninety three year old man

36
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:19.400
who tragically fatally shoots his eighty six year old wife

37
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:23.199
who he was married to for some sixty plus years.

38
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:28.919
We're gonna talk about, of course, Nicholas Maduro dominating the news.

39
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:30.960
We're gonna give you our thoughts on It's not gonna

40
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:34.280
be politically motivated. It's just gonna give you the facts, yep,

41
00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:40.080
as we know them or say them. So let's get

42
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:43.400
into it for this edition for the New Year, the

43
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:45.800
first one we put out this year of Crime Wire Weekly.

44
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:49.280
I'm Jim Chapman and I'm Kelly Jenny. Happy New Year, Kelly.

45
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.039
Happy freaking New Year, Jim.

46
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.199
It feels like the second episode of the year. Jjavu

47
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.919
Blake DejaVu. So we'll just jump right into it, and

48
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:01.680
I'm gonna bring you to Rolin, North Carolina. In a

49
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:07.439
beloved science teacher at a school called Ravenscroft School in

50
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.759
Raleigh was tragically killed during a violent home invasion. This

51
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:16.759
occurred early this past Saturday morning. Now. The attack unfolded

52
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.439
while she was desperately pleading for help on the phone

53
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:24.639
with nine to one one dispatchers. Zoey Welsh, who was

54
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:29.240
fifty seven, called emergency services around six thirty am. This

55
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.639
was on July third, to report that an intruder had

56
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:37.039
broken into her home. While still connected and speaking to operators,

57
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:42.840
reportedly begging for help or screaming, the suspect began assaulting her. This,

58
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:47.080
according to Raleigh Police. Officers arrived minutes later, and they

59
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.840
found Welsh suffering from severe life threatening injuries and despite

60
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:55.439
immediate medical efforts and to transport to the hospital, she

61
00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:00.639
sadly succumbed to her wounds. Police quickly located in arrested

62
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:04.879
thirty six year old Ryan Camacho nearby, and they charge

63
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:08.719
him with murder and felony burglary. In Camacho, who has

64
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:12.479
a lengthy criminal history in North Carolina dating all the

65
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:17.279
way back to two thousand and five, and was recently

66
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.839
released from prison after serving time for a firearm related defense.

67
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:26.319
Of course, he appeared in court, yeah, exactly January fifth,

68
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.360
just a couple of days after this incident, and court

69
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:36.040
records indicated he faced potential involuntary commitment proceedings weeks prior

70
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:40.240
to this incident. Now, Welsh was described by former students

71
00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:44.040
and colleagues as passionate, caring. She was an educator with

72
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:47.240
over twenty years of experience, and she leaves mind just

73
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:51.319
a grieving community there in Raleigh, North Carolina. And I'll

74
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.319
tell you something about Raleigh. It's a community. It's a

75
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.240
really nice place to live. I have a very good

76
00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:00.319
friend that lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, and they are

77
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.040
not you know, it's not the place where you would

78
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.800
become accustomed to things like this occurring, especially in the

79
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:10.639
way of home evasions. So when I looked into this

80
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:14.279
particular incident because what sparked my interest was when it

81
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:19.160
mentioned that he was just recently in court for involuntary

82
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:23.199
commitment proceedings. I wanted to dig a little deeper into

83
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:24.879
his record to see what has passed.

84
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:27.439
I'd be curious to know what it is, very curious.

85
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:31.800
In twenty nineteen, he pleaded guilty to discharging a firearm

86
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:35.040
into an occupied property in Wake County.

87
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:39.720
So that's an occupied property meaning that people were there, yep, people,

88
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:42.360
but no attempted murder charge or anything like that.

89
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:46.839
Awesome, No that and maybe initially it was that, and they,

90
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.319
you know how, they pleaded things down. So he did

91
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.240
serve some time for that. Now he served approximately five

92
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:55.399
years and seven months in prison. He was paroled in

93
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.920
twenty twenty four. But get this, between his actual conviction

94
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:04.000
and his parole in twenty twenty one, he decided he

95
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:07.800
had enough of prison and he escaped, gone away for

96
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:08.600
a few days.

97
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:09.759
That's the red flag.

98
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:11.879
That's definitely the red flag.

99
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.120
The dude hasn't learned a lesson at all. He's just

100
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:15.000
willing to skip out.

101
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:21.439
He also had multiple missdemeanor convictions, including seven in November

102
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:24.600
of twenty twenty four for just November of twenty twenty

103
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:29.480
four for offenses such as breaking and entering, larceny, injury

104
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:33.600
to real estate property. He also served three months from

105
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:37.680
April to July of twenty twenty five for violating post

106
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:42.439
release supervision in Wake County, and more recent incidents even

107
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:47.240
involved charges of breaking and entering and stealing pillows pillows

108
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:50.680
in August of twenty twenty five injury to property. Many

109
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:55.040
of those were dismissed or drastically reduced. And what was

110
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:57.600
kind of the kicker in all this for me was

111
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.920
in December of twenty twenty five, a seventh breaking an

112
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:05.399
entering case was dismissed after Camacho was found get this

113
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:10.160
incapable of proceeding due to mental health concerns. Yeah, so

114
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:15.079
prosecutors sought involuntary commendment on that case, but a judge denied.

115
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.160
Yeah. Okay, so right now, we the people should be

116
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:21.240
looking right back down the barrel at the judge, because

117
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:24.839
you've got a prosecutor here who, to their credit, recognized

118
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:28.439
that this this guy's no good. I mean he's and

119
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:32.199
I'm sorry, he's crazy, but you cannot be a danger

120
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.839
to society. I mean, that's that's the judge's job. That

121
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:36.920
there's no one else, there's no one else to make

122
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.720
a decision here. And this year I have too, is

123
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:43.480
that he's broken the rules of probation or parole. Excuse me,

124
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.560
he was paroled out, so there's rules to that he's

125
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:48.600
not he's either not checking in or he failed a

126
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.600
drug test or something along those lines. So so there's

127
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.720
zero accountability for anything that he's done. And then to

128
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.040
know that the dude broke in and broke and stole pillows,

129
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:00.639
to me, just like boom, like a you know, a

130
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:03.639
light bulb just goes on and says, Okay, something is

131
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:07.480
wrong here, because he's got to be criminally insane. He's

132
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:09.600
willing to hurt people, but he stole pillows, which means

133
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:12.360
there's no rhyme or reason to what he's doing and

134
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.360
there's no predictability to him. Right, and now a woman

135
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:18.600
paid the ultimate price, a good woman, that's.

136
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:21.360
Right, you know. And you're seeing this more and more,

137
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:23.199
and we have a story we're going to cover later

138
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:29.959
on very similar circumstances with these these mental health issues

139
00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:32.279
in the you know, I'm not just going to say

140
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:34.320
in the United States, I'm sure it's a global thing,

141
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.320
but we cover it a lot here where these people

142
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.399
with some major mental health problems are getting slapped on

143
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.759
the rest or completely released because the states in which

144
00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.679
they're charged with the crime seemingly don't know what to

145
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.519
do with them. You know what problem?

146
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:53.559
It makes me think about drug addiction. Okay, if if

147
00:08:53.679 --> 00:08:56.759
love alone could save aug a drug addict, we would

148
00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:00.679
never have a problem, right, Okay, But there's hard there's

149
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.080
hard choices that have to be made here, and we

150
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.080
can feel bad for him, we can have sympathy, and

151
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:06.759
we can have empathy, and we can have every type

152
00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:09.519
of pussy out there there is for somebody. But when

153
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:13.840
it comes to them shooting into occupied homes, breaking into homes,

154
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:16.559
running away from the prison, smart enough to get out

155
00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:20.360
and to escape, and then continuing down this path of

156
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:24.279
just absolute destruction. And so they're saying that the dispatch

157
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:27.399
is now released, and we listened to it off camera,

158
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.919
and basically it sounds like that he broke a front window,

159
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.320
he comes in, and he beat her to death or

160
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.360
hit her with something, because she had a severe hemorrhage

161
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:38.000
to the left side of her head. And this was

162
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:41.240
so bad that the dispatcher was even telling his units

163
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:43.320
that were responding. Look, there was screaming, and now there's

164
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:44.960
a silent line. I'll hold the channel for you, which

165
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:47.120
it means like ten thirty three. The networker hold it

166
00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:50.519
emergency traffic only because it was so it was so

167
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:51.759
bad on the other end of the line.

168
00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:54.080
Yeah, they made a comment on it. We can hear

169
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:55.399
background noise. Yeah.

170
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:56.039
Yeah.

171
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:59.120
Prayers go out to her family, everybody that knew and

172
00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:02.000
loved her. And we got to get a hold on

173
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:06.000
this problem with these guys with rap sheets as loan

174
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:06.360
as my.

175
00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:11.240
Arm and judges need to do their jobs. That judge specifically,

176
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:13.759
you need to do your job. That was ridiculous. All right,

177
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.519
Now let's move on to Kentucky. Now this is a

178
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:19.240
big case right now. A thirty five year old woman

179
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:22.759
from Wolf County, Kentucky faces serious criminal charges, including first

180
00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:26.519
degree feed on homicide, which is a capital offense, potentially

181
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:29.600
meaning she could get the death penalty after allegedly ordering

182
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:33.399
abortion medication online, self inducing an abortion, and then burying

183
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:36.600
the fetal remains in her backyard. So Melissa Spencer was

184
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:39.960
arrested following a report from staff at a United Clinic

185
00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:43.080
in Campton where she was seeking medical care and disclosed

186
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.279
that she had terminated her pregnancy at home, and according

187
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.159
to the state Police, Spencer admitted to investigators that she

188
00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.519
ordered the abortion pills online because the pregnancy resulted from

189
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:54.919
an affair that she was having and she didn't want

190
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.200
her boyfriend to discover it, so she took the medication

191
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:02.080
on December twenty sixth, awardedly, and then delivered the fetus

192
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:05.480
the following day. She described the fetus as a quote

193
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.159
developed male infant and told police she wrapped the remains

194
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.840
in a white rag placed them in a light bulb box.

195
00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:14.759
Some reports online said that she had wrapped it in

196
00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:18.000
Christmas paper and then buried it in a shallow grave

197
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:21.279
behind her home. Troopers obtained a search worn and recovered

198
00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:23.679
the remains, which were sent for autopsy to determine the

199
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.480
exact gestational age. Now she's been charged with first degree

200
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:29.960
fetal homicide, abusive a corpse, and tampering with physical evidence.

201
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:34.480
She's being held at the Three Forks Regional Jail in Beadville. Now,

202
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.919
Kentucky enforces a near total abortion band since overturning Roe v.

203
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:42.440
Wade and permitting the procedures only if the mother's life

204
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:49.879
is in jeopardy, and distribution of abortion pills are supposed

205
00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.399
to be heavily restricted, though self managed abortions are not

206
00:11:53.559 --> 00:11:58.159
explicitly criminalized for the pregnant person in most interpretations. However,

207
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:02.000
fetal homicide laws can apply in such cases, potentially leading

208
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:05.679
to severe penalties, including life imprisonment or the death penalty.

209
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:08.799
But their investigation is still ongoing. Now here's the thing.

210
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:10.840
And the first time we recorded this, which you didn't

211
00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:13.480
get to hear, I had some reservations about this, saying

212
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.440
that I just have a very hard time believing that

213
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:18.559
they would go after the death penalty for this. I

214
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.360
think that we need to look at this, take the

215
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:24.080
emotion out of it, look at this from a legal standpoint.

216
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:26.159
I mean, obviously there's emotions to it. I saw Jim's

217
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:27.000
face kind of scirled up.

218
00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:30.840
You said, going after the death penalty for it.

219
00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:36.679
Yeah, I don't think that that should or would go forward.

220
00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:38.039
I didn't think that they would go because they said

221
00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:40.600
it's a potentially capital case in that state. I just

222
00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:42.679
didn't see that that would be happening. And I had

223
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:45.559
questions about, well, wait a minute, you know it could

224
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:48.320
be argued in court if we don't look at this emotionally, obviously,

225
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:51.840
don't have an affair, and don't order abortion pills online.

226
00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:54.000
Those are give mes right, But in a court of law,

227
00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:57.480
I just thought, you know, a doctor sent her this pill,

228
00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:00.799
from what I understand, and so my question was, I mean,

229
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:03.200
I just don't if you're taking something that a doctor

230
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:07.320
prescribed to you. Laws aside. I was just curious, well,

231
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.559
what was she supposed to do with the baby once

232
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:13.600
it was terminated? If she were in a state where

233
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:15.919
this was legal, you know, what was she supposed to do?

234
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:20.600
Okay, well, she wasn't in a state where this was illegal.

235
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:23.519
And I used an example. I'm going to use an

236
00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:28.039
example here. Marijuana. Okay, there are states where marijuana is legal.

237
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.279
There are states where it's not. Louisiana can't smoke marijuana

238
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:36.039
unless you have a medical reason for doing so. However,

239
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:38.320
in California you can go buy it in a drug store.

240
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:40.159
There different He took it up, right.

241
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:43.360
But if I'm sitting in here and a cop bust

242
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.120
in and I'm smoking me a joint and I say, hey,

243
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.679
it's legal in California and that's where I bought it,

244
00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:51.720
He's not going to care. I'm still gonna get charged

245
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:56.960
with smoking marijuana and convicted of it. My stance on

246
00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.360
this case, and as Kelly said, we've already recorded this,

247
00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:03.120
so and so it's imperative that I highlight this part.

248
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:05.879
My stance in this case. Number one, I'm pro life.

249
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.679
I don't believe you should ever a border baby. That

250
00:14:08.840 --> 00:14:12.200
is my personal opinion that I'm entitled to. Now that

251
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:17.039
being said, in this case, this pill was sent from

252
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:20.320
a place in which it's legal to take that sort

253
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:23.159
of drug to a place in which it is not

254
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:26.759
legal to take that sort of drug. So I am

255
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:29.200
not and I was going to bad on this hard.

256
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.639
I am not of the belief that that should have

257
00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:36.240
been dismissed. And when I say dismissed, we had an

258
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:40.480
update on that case since we had recorded, where in fact,

259
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:44.759
the fetal homicide charge was dropped.

260
00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:50.200
Yes, and I agree. I agree with that decision because

261
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:53.240
I think it's really hard to I think in the

262
00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:55.799
court of law it would be hard. I'm not talking

263
00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:58.440
about yes, obviously her taking the pill resulted in the

264
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:01.120
death of the infant. I have no ques question there whatsoever.

265
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:05.720
But I just think that if a doctor wrote the prescription,

266
00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:07.639
they would get caught up in a court of law

267
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:12.600
in that specific component of her charges. Now the improper

268
00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:15.559
disposal of the baby and all the other things from

269
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:17.759
the state that she was in. I get it because

270
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:19.759
I mean, like you said, she went on the dark

271
00:15:19.799 --> 00:15:24.960
web too, or she had she had the intent of

272
00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:27.759
getting the pill to do something illegal in her state.

273
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.519
But I think where she really messed up is that

274
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.200
once she delivered this fetus, you can't bury it in

275
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:35.919
your backyard.

276
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:39.840
Yeah, and that's why they still kept the charge for

277
00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:41.960
what was the second charge?

278
00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:46.919
Yeah, so there was the fetal first degree fetal homicide,

279
00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:50.039
abuse of a corpse, and tampering with physical evidence. So

280
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:53.360
I agree with the abuse of a corpse and that

281
00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:56.039
she just buried a human being in her backyard, and

282
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:58.399
I agree with the tampering with the physical evidence because

283
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:02.320
that is tampering, right, you know, I just the first

284
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:04.759
degree feedal homicide. I think they would have gotten caught

285
00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:08.120
up with the fact of how she had obtained the pill,

286
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:10.600
and it seems like they agreed they.

287
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:14.279
Would have had to extradite that person there, the person

288
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:17.480
who wrote the prescription. I personally feel like it should

289
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:20.159
be illegal to write a prescription to a place in

290
00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:23.799
which it's legal. So if he knows that's her address

291
00:16:24.320 --> 00:16:27.519
and he sends that to her, knowingly sending her something illegal,

292
00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:29.720
he should be in trouble for that. That's my opinion.

293
00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:31.960
But the look same as if I ship a drug

294
00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.799
from California to Louisiana, like marijuana.

295
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:38.360
But if you're just in role reverse or reversal, if

296
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.600
you're in a state that says you can do this,

297
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.360
and you do it, then which state are you going

298
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:46.759
to be bound to the law by. And I think

299
00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:49.039
it's the same argument here and that he if it's

300
00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:51.159
not illegal for him to mail that to another state,

301
00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:54.240
as far as the law, we are in the court

302
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:58.039
of public opinion, right. But either way, I just think

303
00:16:58.080 --> 00:17:01.399
that she has made a total, you know, immoral decision

304
00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:03.080
here to have the affair and then to try to

305
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:04.079
hide it in this manner.

306
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:04.480
You know.

307
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:07.200
That's that's you know, the affair.

308
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:12.200
I don't care about whatever. Yeah, the killing of the baby,

309
00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:15.039
which that pill did, what she took, I have a

310
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:15.680
big problem with.

311
00:17:16.200 --> 00:17:18.759
And I don't think looking at this either, that this

312
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:20.559
baby is going to be a full term baby by

313
00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:22.400
any stretch of the imagination, Because if you could fit

314
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:24.319
the fetus in a not that this matters. I'm just

315
00:17:24.359 --> 00:17:26.519
trying to figure out the gestational age if you could

316
00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:29.359
fit it in a light bulb box. This must have

317
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:33.079
been she must have been, you know, not full term,

318
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:36.799
so she didn't deliver like a full fully.

319
00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:38.880
What's the point of that.

320
00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:41.119
I'm just trying to guess the gestational age because they.

321
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:43.720
Say arms, legs, a heartbeat, a brain.

322
00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:46.680
Or I'm just saying they didn't tell baby. They didn't

323
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:49.240
tell us, So I'm just trying to guess based off

324
00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:49.799
of what I know.

325
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:54.759
Yeah, well it was certainly. I mean, you would have

326
00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:58.960
to be four or five months old to develop fully

327
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:01.359
as a baby from an embryo, So.

328
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.920
I mean they're calling it a fetus. That's probably are

329
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:05.480
key there too.

330
00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:09.559
Yeah, all right, we'll move on. Let's go to Venezuela

331
00:18:09.839 --> 00:18:15.319
via New York and President Nicholas Maduro was captured by

332
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:18.880
special forces during a pre dawn raid. This was on

333
00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:22.599
January third of twenty twenty six. He's been flounded the

334
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:27.440
United States to face long standing federal charges. And I

335
00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:29.359
wanted to get to this, and I want to highlight

336
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:32.799
this with this isn't a political thing, This isn't a

337
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:36.119
political you know, the reason I'm bringing this up isn't

338
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:40.039
a Republican slash Democrat type thing. I'm just hearing a

339
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:42.319
lot of things out there that are inaccurate. So I'm

340
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:44.359
gonna say my piece on it. Kelly to say her

341
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:49.000
peace on it, and people can agree or disagree. The

342
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:52.519
sixty three year old leader, along with his with his

343
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:58.680
wife Cilia Flores, appeared in a Manhattan federal court. This

344
00:18:58.799 --> 00:19:02.440
was on Monday, but pleaded not guilty to serious allegations,

345
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:07.920
including narco terrorism and drug trafficking. Maduro defiantly proclaimed himself,

346
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:10.319
I am still the president of my country. I don't

347
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:12.400
know if that's what he sounds like, but that's what

348
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:17.359
that's my interpretation of it, and he described his detention

349
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:22.279
as illegal. The operation, authorized by President Donald Trump involved

350
00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:26.880
a law involved a large scale airstrike on Caracas and

351
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:31.480
targeted strikes against alleged drug related assets, resulting in at

352
00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:37.480
least forty deaths, including Venezuela and Cuban security personnel, and

353
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:40.920
US forces had been building pressure with the naval blockades

354
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:43.680
prior to the strikes. Now that's all of that news

355
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:45.920
article that I'm going to read, and we're just going

356
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:47.880
to talk about this for a minute, and I'm going

357
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:50.759
to tell you a few facts that I'm sure most

358
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:52.599
of you know, and one of them is that he

359
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:56.039
was not the president any longer of Venezuela. Right, he

360
00:19:56.079 --> 00:20:00.319
had been ousted ousted, and he just kind of stayed

361
00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:04.200
in there and used his drug ties to do that.

362
00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:10.480
I will say that this guy was a drug harboring

363
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:14.119
terrorist in his own way. I don't know if he's

364
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:18.759
actually considered a terrorist, but narco terrorism is terrorism, and

365
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:20.279
that's one of the things he was charged with. And

366
00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:24.400
he had an existing indictment, yeah, from the federal government

367
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:26.440
prior to the Trump administration.

368
00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:29.880
So right, previous administration wanted him to. Wasn't there like

369
00:20:29.880 --> 00:20:32.440
a fifty million dollar bounty or something on his head?

370
00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:32.920
Yeah.

371
00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:35.480
So when people are up in arms about this, I

372
00:20:35.559 --> 00:20:40.119
just from a criminal justice standpoint, from a narco terrorism standpoint,

373
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:44.759
I mean, we've been blowing boats up. He was assisting

374
00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:50.240
and in his power, allowing drug.

375
00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:52.960
Drugs that are killing young Americans.

376
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:53.920
Yeah, and so good.

377
00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:55.240
Yeah, tell me something.

378
00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:58.359
Look around, everyone you know has been affected by the

379
00:20:58.960 --> 00:21:01.880
drugs in our country. You yourself, or people you know,

380
00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:04.519
or people that you love. And to me, I'm waving

381
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:06.759
the red, white, and blue right now and saying great,

382
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:09.519
if this stops drugs from coming into our country, then

383
00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:14.359
you know, kudos for the operation. And the operation was sick, right, Yeah.

384
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.839
It really was. They you know, the United States really

385
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:23.440
showed their I guess, dominancy when it comes to a

386
00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:27.160
lot of things. Look, they were able to actually implant

387
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:32.839
malware into the Internet system and the electrical system in

388
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:35.519
the entire sitting and shut all the lights off. So

389
00:21:35.759 --> 00:21:36.839
that's pretty slag, I know.

390
00:21:36.920 --> 00:21:39.359
And like I imagine, I'm as far as movies go,

391
00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:41.680
I love movies about military, and I love movies that

392
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:44.240
are like rough and tough in fight and you know whatever.

393
00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:47.839
And I just imagine some you know, he's law enforcement,

394
00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:50.599
but I imagine with glasses and at his computer, and like,

395
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:52.720
how badass you can shut down all the lights and

396
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:56.160
everything in another country. Yeah, Like that is some freaking

397
00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:57.319
op stuff right there.

398
00:21:57.440 --> 00:21:59.920
That's some big time stuff. And some of the equim

399
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:03.480
that they went in with these helos y'all that look,

400
00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:06.960
they this was a protected area. It was actually he

401
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.400
lived on a military base. So he lived in a

402
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.960
big house on a military base and it was surrounded

403
00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:20.839
by anti aircraft equipment, et cetera. And the helicopters we

404
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:27.559
used have such evasive countermeasures on those helicopters that these

405
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:31.319
missiles were flying and we were just using these countermeasures

406
00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:34.160
and they had no idea where these helicopters were. We

407
00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:37.559
were in and out in a very limited amount of time,

408
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:41.680
and these people were so surprised. Get this, y'all. Maduro

409
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:44.319
pops up out of his bed because his wife says,

410
00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:47.400
I think are here helicopters. He pops up out of

411
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:50.160
his bed and boom right there in front of him

412
00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:55.119
is to say, ten Delta Force guys, which yeah, And

413
00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:59.200
he's in the nude, y'all, totally in the nude. This

414
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:02.279
guy is naked in his bed.

415
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:06.359
I don't want to naked either.

416
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:07.799
When they come to give you yeah, I mean, what

417
00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:09.440
do you say at that point? It's like, can I

418
00:23:09.480 --> 00:23:10.240
put my pants on?

419
00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:10.559
Hey?

420
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.079
Bro, you watch him come in the middle of the night.

421
00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:15.039
It ain't my fault you saying what you're saying.

422
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:17.319
Look, I've seen enough forensic files that my underwear is

423
00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:19.279
always nice. In my pajamas match, I'm gonna look good

424
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:19.559
at my.

425
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:23.920
Crimes, you know. And so they did allow him to

426
00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:26.799
put it. Look like put on a sweatsuit because when

427
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.720
he got in the there's a very famous picture that

428
00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:32.279
y'all have probably seen him right now of him on

429
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:35.160
the helicopter upon his capture, and he has a sweatsuit on.

430
00:23:35.319 --> 00:23:38.079
So we are so decent. I love that you can

431
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:40.319
put your pants on it and get your shoppers right

432
00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:44.279
and listen. People, I think too, are missed. Sometimes I

433
00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:45.920
feel like a lot of people miss the forest for

434
00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:49.839
the trees. Okay, so he You know what if the

435
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:52.000
president right now that we have, what if he hadn't

436
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:54.839
been elected this go round and just refuse to leave office.

437
00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:56.440
What if he would have just stayed? People would have

438
00:23:56.480 --> 00:23:58.960
been completely up in arms. We would have burned our

439
00:23:59.000 --> 00:24:01.079
own country down right. People would have went just crazy.

440
00:24:01.359 --> 00:24:04.480
So let's just flip the script. Now you're in Venezuela.

441
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:07.680
He was ousted, He was ousted, and he refused to leave,

442
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:11.319
yet nobody came in to stop him. Why Because that's

443
00:24:11.359 --> 00:24:15.160
how narco terrorism works. You are afraid the little people,

444
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:19.640
the little people that are just running around, starving to death, impoverished.

445
00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:22.519
You know, they have no way to fight this. There's

446
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:26.359
nothing that they can do. And he is going to

447
00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:29.119
be protected also by the very people that are making

448
00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:32.119
all that money off of him being in power. Correct,

449
00:24:32.119 --> 00:24:34.559
you have to ask yourself why is this And when

450
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.680
people are calling this an abduction, that's asinine. This wasn't

451
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:41.119
an extraction. They went in, they got someone who had

452
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:45.519
criminal charges that he was to be taken and he

453
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:47.279
was to face it for. And what it like, It

454
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:50.359
was federal I mean it was there was other countries

455
00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:53.279
that have acknowledged that he was not There was fifty.

456
00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:56.680
Fifty different countries that would not acknowledge the fact that

457
00:24:56.720 --> 00:24:58.519
he was president. And it was a nash I had

458
00:24:58.559 --> 00:25:00.720
nothing to do with the United States. Yeah, it was

459
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:06.960
a international committee that determined that he had like five

460
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:10.079
votes let's say in that election versus a million for

461
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:13.480
the other person. Uh, it was just a landslide. And

462
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:15.559
it was actually a female that had won that election.

463
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.279
Her name unfortunately escapes from my mom right now, but

464
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:22.000
she had to go into hiding and now she lives

465
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:25.319
in a completely different country because of his threats that

466
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:26.559
he obviously he was right.

467
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:29.480
So this is who was taken and is now going

468
00:25:29.559 --> 00:25:32.839
to face these charges, and yet people are somehow upset

469
00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:36.720
about that, Like what in the world those people don't

470
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:42.119
understand history Venezuelan. The Venezuelan people deserve better. They deserve

471
00:25:42.200 --> 00:25:44.039
to be able to make money and to be able

472
00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:47.640
to speak out and not fear that terrorism under the

473
00:25:47.799 --> 00:25:52.880
you know, drug rule will somehow get them killed. Yes,

474
00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:56.160
that the elected president, rightfully elected president, has to flee

475
00:25:56.279 --> 00:25:59.359
the country she was elected to lead. Yeah, like really

476
00:25:59.400 --> 00:25:59.960
think about that.

477
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:02.480
Yeah, And I'll say one more thing and then we'll

478
00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:05.599
get off this topic. I have a very good friend

479
00:26:05.960 --> 00:26:10.680
who is from Venezuela. He was his family lived there,

480
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:14.640
not only during Maduro's regime, if you will, but prior

481
00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:17.720
to that, with the person that he took over for.

482
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:22.680
My friend was from a very wealthy family there. They

483
00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:27.480
owned several paint coatings manufacturer, think like SHERM Williams, but

484
00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:31.839
they it was a different brand, and they in these

485
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:36.640
stores there, several of them. They had good money. And

486
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:40.160
basically Maduro's people went in there and said, you're not

487
00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:43.839
gonna make this kind of money anymore. We're gonna everything

488
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:46.000
you make, we're gonna get like eighty percent of that.

489
00:26:46.359 --> 00:26:48.039
You're going to get to keep twenty percent.

490
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:50.559
Yeah, basically, club what happened here. You had to pay

491
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:54.039
out a percentage for protection or you would.

492
00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:56.799
I mean, there was no just the way it's going

493
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:00.960
to be. And so they they left. They they actually

494
00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:05.240
are their legal citizens here, but they came on visas,

495
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:08.839
the entire family, and it was to escape that regime.

496
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:10.599
And I can tell you he will be the first

497
00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:14.519
person to say he hates Maduro and always had. There

498
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:17.960
are eight million other people that are Venez Whalen's that

499
00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:20.839
hate Maduro. How do I know that because they all

500
00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:22.519
left when he took over.

501
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:26.119
Yeah, our hearts need to be with these people and

502
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:29.680
rather arguing, you know, whether the US should have gotten

503
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:32.079
involved with we need to think about those people and

504
00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:36.440
that they have the opportunity now theoretically to improve their lives.

505
00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:38.799
Yeah. I think if you or not Venez Whalen, you

506
00:27:38.839 --> 00:27:43.279
don't really have a right to even judge. For the

507
00:27:43.319 --> 00:27:45.240
most part, I mean, as Americans, we can look at

508
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:47.839
this like Kelley and I are doing now, And the

509
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:51.000
obvious is to say this was not a good guy. Yeah,

510
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:54.599
and the world is better off with him not leading

511
00:27:54.599 --> 00:27:58.119
a country. I think that's clear. But venezu Whalens are

512
00:27:58.160 --> 00:27:59.559
the ones you need to listen to, and they're all

513
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:04.039
flying American flags in Venezuela right now, by their own accord,

514
00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:06.480
they want to do it, and so that tells me

515
00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:07.279
all I need to know.

516
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.640
Get out of here. All right. Let's go to Indiana

517
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:14.440
speaking to drugs. Okay, this one's crazy, all right. Indiana

518
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:17.640
State Police made a significant drug bust over the weekend.

519
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:19.200
So I got to ask you, Jim, if you hear

520
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:21.880
a significant drug bust, what do you think?

521
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.839
I mean, I'm thinking a significant one, maybe one hundred

522
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:28.119
grand worth of weed or something.

523
00:28:28.160 --> 00:28:31.599
Yeah, Alex, all right, how about three hundred and nine

524
00:28:31.680 --> 00:28:36.200
pounds of cocaine the booger sugar, three hundred and nine

525
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:38.400
pounds of it with an estimated street value of seven

526
00:28:38.880 --> 00:28:41.720
million dollars during a routine traffic stop.

527
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:43.440
It's a lot? What?

528
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:45.920
All right? So two California men were arrested and they're

529
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.920
facing serious charges in connection with the discovery. So this

530
00:28:49.000 --> 00:28:51.319
was on January the third. It was around one thirty

531
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:55.240
PM when a state trooper pulled over a Blue International

532
00:28:55.279 --> 00:28:58.079
semi tractor trailer in Putnam County. And the stop was

533
00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:02.480
actually initiated as part of the Department of Transportations compliance inspection.

534
00:29:02.599 --> 00:29:07.359
So this was just fornings and my worst got stuck inspection. Yeah,

535
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:11.039
so during the initial conversations with the driver, the trooper

536
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:14.240
observed indicators of criminal activity. Now what does that mean, guys?

537
00:29:14.279 --> 00:29:16.680
I would say that's probably they're probably sweating, they're probably nervous,

538
00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:19.920
they're probably just kind of like not acting right and

539
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:23.240
for obvious reasons. And so that prompted them to deploy

540
00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:25.799
a canine unit, so they brought in the dogs. The

541
00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:28.359
dog gave a positive alert for the presence of illegal drugs,

542
00:29:28.519 --> 00:29:31.880
which gave them the probable cause to then search the vehicle. Now,

543
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:35.960
inside the truck's sleeper birth, which I've never heard sleeper birth.

544
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:40.119
It's well, no shit, sher luck, but a berth, well,

545
00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:42.559
that's a weird word. I don't like it. In the back, y'all,

546
00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:46.559
in the back where people sleep, authorities uncovered the large

547
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:51.000
quantity of cocaine hidden under a blanket. That is the

548
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:52.319
security measures they took.

549
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:56.240
Died there three hundred pounds of cocaine and that's as

550
00:29:56.279 --> 00:29:57.039
far as you took it.

551
00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:01.680
That's pretty serious. Uh, nothing under the right while look there,

552
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:04.759
all right, So the semi was en route to Joplin, Missouri,

553
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:08.240
or from Joplin, Missouri to Richmond, Indiana. And the driver

554
00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:10.839
had claimed that the vehicle was empty heading to go

555
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.599
pick up a load. Now, the arrested individuals were identified

556
00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:18.400
as twenty five year old Gerprit Singh from Fresno, California

557
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:22.440
and thirty year old Jazz Vir Sing from Santa Clara, California. Now,

558
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:25.480
guess what. Both of them were taken into custody without

559
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:28.759
incident and brought to the jail. However, although they were

560
00:30:28.759 --> 00:30:31.279
both charged with dealing narcotics and that was a level

561
00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:35.920
two felony under their law, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement

562
00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:39.240
showed up and had placed deportation holds on the men

563
00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:43.519
due to prior pending removal procedures. They were not supposed

564
00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:47.640
to even be here, and they're transporting seven million dollars

565
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:51.079
in cocaine across the country. So the ISP Superintendent Anthony

566
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:53.160
Scott praised the operation and said, you know, this is

567
00:30:53.160 --> 00:30:55.880
only going to make our communities better. He gave this

568
00:30:55.880 --> 00:30:58.160
whole statement about that. And so they haven't released further

569
00:30:58.279 --> 00:31:00.640
details on the origin of the drugs or the potential

570
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:03.440
connections to larger networks. But I mean, come on, this

571
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:04.680
didn't just appear out of nowhere.

572
00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:07.799
They're not growing in on a farm in California.

573
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:11.160
Yeah, so those guys better watch their backs.

574
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:13.319
Yeah, And you know, it's a perfect follow up to

575
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:15.839
the story we just did with Maduro, because this is

576
00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:18.279
the kind of ship we're trying to stop right here.

577
00:31:20.400 --> 00:31:23.839
Drug trafficking to that level. And like you said, there's

578
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:27.119
someone somewhere that's missing seven million dollars worth of cocaine

579
00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:30.559
right now, and he knows that he or she that

580
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.559
they're not getting that back. So these guys probably want

581
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:36.559
to stay their ass in jail. I don't want I mean,

582
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:40.200
seven million dollars a lot of money, even to people

583
00:31:40.240 --> 00:31:40.920
with a lot of money.

584
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:43.720
They're probably praying to Ice, please get me out of here. Yeah,

585
00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:48.519
please take we want life life, or just shoot us

586
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:50.680
out into the ocean somewhere because somebody's coming after it.

587
00:31:50.720 --> 00:31:53.559
That's terrible and shocking that it's out of Indiana and

588
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:56.119
was headed. You don't think of Indiana as your drug

589
00:31:56.240 --> 00:31:59.559
capital of the world, right Indiana? Yeah, I mean there's

590
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:02.880
nothing there cornfields. They must be smoking somewhere in Indiana.

591
00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:06.160
They must be snorting the Yeah, yeah, a little bit

592
00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:10.240
too much. Sent million islands under a blanket, unbelieving in good.

593
00:32:10.119 --> 00:32:13.759
Stores, A two dollars and fifty cent blanket from the walmart.

594
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.240
Well, let's bring it back home and we're going to

595
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:19.680
head to marry in Louisiana. And if you're curious about that,

596
00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:23.119
that's in North Louisiana. It is. I's to the state

597
00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:26.200
line and it is it is in what's known as

598
00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:31.960
Union Parish, Louisiana. So a bizarre incident would be putting

599
00:32:32.039 --> 00:32:34.480
it mildly. For the story. I'm about to tell you

600
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:38.440
a forty one year old woman. Okay, she was found swimming.

601
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:41.960
She was found swimming in the nude. Oh yeah, that's

602
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:45.160
what I said. You got it. Yeah, And it was

603
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:48.079
in a neighbor's pond, which is kind of yuck. But yeah,

604
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.920
I mean, you know, swim Okay, swimming a pool nude,

605
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.000
that's one thing. A pond.

606
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:54.839
I mean a gator, my champion.

607
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:56.119
A gator or algae. Man.

608
00:32:56.279 --> 00:32:56.440
Uh.

609
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:01.400
Anyway, she's swimming in this pond nude. Somebody calls the

610
00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:04.920
cops and I'll break the store down for you. Her

611
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:08.319
name is Aaron Sutton. She was taken into custody on

612
00:33:08.480 --> 00:33:11.680
January sixth of twenty twenty six, following an incident that

613
00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:15.359
actually began in November of twenty twenty five. Now, according

614
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:18.799
to the Union, pair of Sheriff's Office deputies responded to

615
00:33:18.839 --> 00:33:23.440
a trespassing complaint at a residence in Marion, where the

616
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:27.920
homeowner reported their neighbor screaming in the driveway and noted

617
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:31.480
she had previously warned her about entering the property, so

618
00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:34.440
this must not be her first time. Upon arrival, deputies

619
00:33:34.480 --> 00:33:39.720
discovered Sutton swimming naked in the complaintant's pond. When ordered

620
00:33:39.720 --> 00:33:43.480
to exit the water, Sutton initially refused, telling authorities she

621
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:49.359
was quote trying to be a mermaid. I've heard that before.

622
00:33:50.119 --> 00:33:54.039
After multiple commands, she eventually complied. Due to the cold

623
00:33:54.119 --> 00:33:57.519
November temperatures. Did deputies did provide her with a blanket.

624
00:33:57.759 --> 00:33:59.400
I bet that's why I could have been hot as

625
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:02.400
hell that had been put this blanket on there. They

626
00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:06.400
called emergency medical services for an evaluation, and as a

627
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:11.119
deputy attempted to escort inside a nearby residence to warm up,

628
00:34:11.159 --> 00:34:14.239
it was called out there Sudden allegedly charged at the

629
00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:17.599
officer and that led to a physical struggle. So you

630
00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:22.000
got the picture, a deputy party a nude woman. Right.

631
00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:23.840
Look, if you know anything about law enforcement, you know

632
00:34:23.840 --> 00:34:26.679
that neckan means fight. They are naked, you are going

633
00:34:26.719 --> 00:34:27.320
to fight them.

634
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:32.400
Well it it reports indicated that Sudden resisted arrests vigorously

635
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:37.519
and they actually had to deploy a taser, and get this,

636
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:44.159
the taser had no effect. So yeah, she proceeded to

637
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:47.760
kick and punch deputies, which resulted in assaults to law

638
00:34:47.800 --> 00:34:52.400
enforcement personnel charges and eventually they did restrain her. Now,

639
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:55.719
both Kelly and I know a lot of police officers,

640
00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:58.039
and of course when something like this happens, I promise

641
00:34:58.119 --> 00:35:02.000
you in marrying they probably only had about three deputies

642
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:04.400
on DT that night. All three of them were at

643
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:06.519
the scene. Yeah, oh yeah, you got to see this.

644
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:12.239
Eventually she got just a slew of charges placed against her. Uh,

645
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:15.800
and she's in some trouble. Who knew a mermaid would

646
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:18.039
get arrusted? I mean, we have it in Louisiana.

647
00:35:18.199 --> 00:35:20.840
She obviously is not a mermaid because she kicked at

648
00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:23.719
the deputies and that wouldn't work because you're a fish,

649
00:35:23.719 --> 00:35:27.199
you would have a tail. So her theory is plumbusted.

650
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:30.679
And uh, you ever you ever got in your children

651
00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:32.119
when they were a little out of the bathtub and

652
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:34.840
their slippery little suckers, and then they try to fight you,

653
00:35:34.920 --> 00:35:38.199
and you like, I can't imagine a grown woman, grown woman.

654
00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:42.159
Skinny dipping in the lake. Have you ever skinny dip before?

655
00:35:43.760 --> 00:35:48.360
That was too much hesitation, No, not.

656
00:35:48.280 --> 00:35:50.719
That I remember. Look, I ain't afraid of jump in Yeah,

657
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:51.360
I don't want to not.

658
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:54.119
I did that one time in a hotel pool in

659
00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:56.360
a hotel. Yeah, I was drunk as hell. Me and

660
00:35:56.360 --> 00:35:58.639
a bunch of buddies come back about three o'clock. It was,

661
00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:01.599
I mean, we're like on nineteen at the time. We

662
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:03.960
were staying at like a freaking day's end or something.

663
00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:08.840
I mean, it wasn't like we were at with kids everything. Yeah,

664
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:10.960
And it was like three o'clock in a more walking

665
00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:13.199
back to the room, and somebody dared me, I dare

666
00:36:13.280 --> 00:36:16.559
you to just jump in there butt ass naked. I said, Hey,

667
00:36:16.719 --> 00:36:18.320
you ain't got to tell me twice.

668
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:20.920
You were a murmur and ball.

669
00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:21.719
Yeah.

670
00:36:21.880 --> 00:36:24.199
Well I do know that. I was out in the

671
00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:27.559
ocean one time with a whole audience at the freaking

672
00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:30.719
sand and I got flipped by a wave that was

673
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:34.840
horrendously huge, and whenever I finally came up, my top

674
00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:38.719
came off, and my husband's cousin he's gay. He didn't care,

675
00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:43.800
but when he saw me topless, he went, oh, my Kelly,

676
00:36:44.280 --> 00:36:45.239
let's get weird, buddy.

677
00:36:45.639 --> 00:36:48.440
Yeah. Sorry, you know that happens a lot too at

678
00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:51.480
I used to have a friend who was a lifeguard

679
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:54.639
at like Blue Bitity, which is a big water park

680
00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:57.920
here all the time, he said, tops fly off constantly. Yeah,

681
00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:01.800
and I've always volunteered to be the lifeguard at the slide.

682
00:37:01.880 --> 00:37:03.719
And I think my voice has gone up in octave

683
00:37:03.760 --> 00:37:06.400
with the wedgies. You get oof, you come down to

684
00:37:06.440 --> 00:37:09.000
the bottom. My goodness, take your life into your own hands.

685
00:37:09.440 --> 00:37:13.679
All right, let's move on from that to Fremont, California.

686
00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:17.119

687
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:19.000
but a ninety three year old man has been charged

688
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:22.360

689
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:25.320
