00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.359
Hey, everyone, welcome back. Got a slew of crime stories
2
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:23.879
coming your way today and this is a special drop
3
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:26.719
on a Monday. What do you think about that, Kelly?
4
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:27.199
I like it.
5
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:28.440
We're giving them what they want.
6
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:30.600
Yeah, and I love doing this show. I think it's fun.
7
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:32.560
So it's a good time for everybody.
8
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:35.159
Well, let's get into the topics, and there's a lot
9
00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:38.479
of them to discuss. Some big time crimes occurrent all
10
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:44.159
over the country, and we're going to start in La Via, Louisiana. Hey,
11
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:44.880
you like that.
12
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:45.439
That's awesome.
13
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:51.600
Louisiana native and former UFC champ Dustin Porier is arrested
14
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:56.039
at the airport after a drunken incident that was caught
15
00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:59.880
on camera. Of course, as they always are in this
16
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:04.799
body camera. We're going to talk about that. Dustin Poitier,
17
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.760
Louisiana native, Lafayette boy and kind of like a hero
18
00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:12.239
in this area. So we're going to discuss all the details.
19
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:16.200
Saint Tammany Pears Sheriff Randy Smith, we brought you his story.
20
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:19.719
He was the sheriff that well beat the heck out
21
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:23.799
of a podcaster in a bar after having a few
22
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:24.280
too many.
23
00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:26.799
It sounds like a joke, A sheriff and a podcaster
24
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:27.640
walking to a bar.
25
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.439
Yeah, well he walked in there. Beat the heck out
26
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:32.560
of the guy. We brought you that whole story. He
27
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:37.519
has resigned after pleading guilty in court to his charges.
28
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:40.040
We're going to discuss that. In New York, a man
29
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:47.799
steals his ex bosses daughter's ashes and makes ransom demands. Yeah,
30
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:53.079
you don't mess with with someone's dad. I guess decedent
31
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:54.879
is what you would call that. You don't mess with
32
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:57.879
their ashes, no matter who it is, that's wrong. Yeah,
33
00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:01.200
this guy was the ultimate paper I guess in his mind.
34
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:05.040
The results of Mackenzie Shirrilla's appeal are in. We're going
35
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:09.199
to talk about those. Uh. Three Wendy's employees have been
36
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.800
arrested after serving a customer garbage to say the least,
37
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:19.960
I mean one hundred percent, and we we've covered a
38
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:22.439
lot of these. I'm not going to fast food restaurants
39
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:26.280
anymore after after covering these stories. In Spain, a woman
40
00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:31.400
is doused in gasoline during an escape room challenge. Never
41
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:33.719
heard of that in the United States, but in Spain,
42
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.919
apparently they take that shit suit serious. A non escape
43
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:42.439
room in Michigan, a woman is caught smuggling wine into jail,
44
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:44.520
and we're going to leave it to your imagination to
45
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.879
guess where until we get to that story. In Florida,
46
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:51.639
a nurse has lost her mind during a pick a
47
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:52.280
ball game.
48
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.400
Pickleball gets people wild.
49
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:56.319
It must I've never played it.
50
00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:58.599
I've played it well, I have not fun.
51
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.360
It's old people. Ten. This is what I've always been told.
52
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:03.639
And I'm old people, so I should be playing it well.
53
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:05.599
Yeah, but I know I.
54
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:09.879
Haven't as of yet, because you haven't hurt arm her shoulder. Yeah,
55
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:15.240
I'm maimed these days for now. A Florida man dumps
56
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:20.159
a lap dance actually doesn't pay for his tab on
57
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:23.599
lap dances, And who knew you could run tabs on
58
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:26.919
lap dances? Apparently this Florida man did. It leads to
59
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.680
his arrest. We'll talk about that. A Colorado mom is
60
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:33.400
charged with murder after one hundred and seventy three empty
61
00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:37.000
liquor bottles are found in her daughter's room.
62
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:41.719
These some of these cases, I know, it's almost hard
63
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.400
to to take in that that can be real. Yeah,
64
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.759
that's a ton of that's like a whole isle of liquor.
65
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:53.719
Yes, And of course we'll have overtime stories as well.
66
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.400
So let's get into today's episode. Kelly Jennings, We're going
67
00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:02.000
to start out in at all, right, I said LA earlier,
68
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:05.439
But it's actually Atlanta where the airport was that this
69
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:11.719
incident occurred and involved UFC former UFC Lightweight Champion Dustin Pourier.
70
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:17.600
He was arrested at Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta Airport. This was
71
00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:22.000
on this past Sunday for public drunkenness after he was
72
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:26.199
denied boarding on a Delta flight and became aggressive with
73
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:30.879
the airline staff and police. According to the Atlanta Police Department,
74
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:34.360
officers responded to the Delta gate. This was around five
75
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:38.279
o'clock BM on June twenty first, Which what was June
76
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:40.160
twenty first Father's Day?
77
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:42.600
Oh? I thought you're asking me, like the day, like
78
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:43.800
literally the day of the week or something.
79
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:47.160
Yeah, No, it was Sunday. It was Sunday Father's Day,
80
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:49.600
and he is a father, so that of course adds
81
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:54.560
insult to injury. After receiving reports of an intoxicated male passenger,
82
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.399
the police department went to the scene after he had
83
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:03.360
been fused boarding on a flight to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Now,
84
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:07.399
police said Poorier who is thirty seven, was visibly intoxicated
85
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:12.079
and agitated. He yelled profanities at Delta employees, and I'll
86
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:15.720
tell you what. Instead of going into everything, he said,
87
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.199
I'm just gonna play the clip. Clip says a lot.
88
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:23.560
It's not very long. So here's that clip. Well, let's
89
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:28.079
go do let's go dog, what's up a bunch of holes,
90
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:35.959
Let's go, let's go line Yeah, pulling off the plane
91
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:37.120
on my boys went to the.
92
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:44.800
Now with the and this is why you got all right, bro, just.
93
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.040
I'll fight you right now. No, I don't want to fight, bro,
94
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:52.079
I'll go with you right now. I don't want to fight, Bro,
95
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:56.839
I don't want to I don't want to fight. Tell them,
96
00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:03.319
tell them just be bad. But bro, bro, Bro, what's up?
97
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:12.240
Relaxed several No, it's not gonna fight. Something happened already
98
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:15.279
by you. Relax.
99
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:22.199
Relax, Relax, Bro, relax, relax Bill bang you up, bro, relax.
100
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:33.319
Man, just relax. Yeah, they kicked them off. This guy
101
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:36.720
is like, you know, what's one of the talks to
102
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:49.240
me in the beasts wine holes man's arresting wrestling. That's
103
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:55.800
the best way, though, That's that's right. Pounded, pounded, an.
104
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:57.759
You did a great job. You did a great job,
105
00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:02.920
You did what you're good Okay. So obviously and sadly,
106
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:07.519
he was very intoxicated. He gets arrested. He was released
107
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.759
on bond the very same day. And it's important to
108
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:13.439
say he did release a statement on X and he
109
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.199
said the following. He said, I'm at the point where
110
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.439
I need some help. Walking away from fighting hasn't been
111
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.519
easy on me, and alcohol isn't the answer. It has
112
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:25.199
ruined my father's life and I will not allow it
113
00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:28.959
to ruin mine. My family deserved me at one hundred percent.
114
00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:31.360
I'm trying to do everything I can to get my
115
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.439
mind right and take the right steps. Now. For those
116
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:38.639
who are unaware, don't follow mma. He retired from the
117
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:42.800
UFC last year following a unanimous decision to Max Holloway
118
00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:45.480
in a trilogy fight. It was a huge fight. This
119
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.319
was in twenty twenty five. He finished his career with
120
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:51.279
a thirty and ten record. He had notable victories over
121
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:56.839
Connor McGregor twice, Justin Gachie, and Eddie Alvarez, and he
122
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:01.439
had previously held the interim UFC lightweight title in twenty nineteen.
123
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:04.639
Yeah, one thing that stood out to me though in
124
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:08.600
the interaction was whenever the cop goes, are you just
125
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.800
uh poorier? And he when he says yes, and then
126
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:14.360
he's like, no, bro, I don't want to fight. I
127
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:16.480
don't want to fight, Like he automatically was like, oh.
128
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:19.000
He knew, yeah, I'm not wanting to. He was even
129
00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:24.240
scared to taste him. You know, I'm glad, Justin just
130
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:28.519
now you got me, Justin, you said, Dustin Pourier did
131
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.319
not get tased. I'm glad to see that. And this
132
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:33.559
officer handled everything the right way.
133
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.919
He did. He de escalated, even though very very clearly
134
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:40.519
Dustin was trying to escalate that. So we got some
135
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:43.679
anger problems here that and I get it, you know,
136
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:46.440
that might have been his outlet. That was what you know,
137
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:48.519
he's fought for a long time, and that was kind
138
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:51.039
of his maybe his coping mechanism or whatever. And then
139
00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:54.720
you give that up and then alcohol, you know, is
140
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:57.759
not probably the best the best switch here. I am
141
00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:00.960
glad that he did not hurt that officery, hurt anybody.
142
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:02.799
He was rude, you know, he was rude, and he
143
00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:05.600
was he was belligerent. He recognizes that. Let's move on.
144
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.480
I kind of you know I'm there, but gosh, bless
145
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.279
if you his cauliflowered ears and all that, that's number
146
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:13.240
one sign if someone's wanting to buck on you and
147
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:15.879
you see those ears, Yeah, don't disengage.
148
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.960
Disengage well, And he actually obviously in his statement he
149
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.159
said something about his ruined his father's life. So he
150
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:28.679
has alcoholism apparently in his family. That's never good. But
151
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.639
in addition to that, he also said in an interview
152
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.679
one time, not not in the far too recent past,
153
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:36.519
somebody asked him what you got going on in your
154
00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:38.960
life now, and he said, let me tell you something.
155
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:43.279
He said, Uh, I don't have anything circled in my calendar.
156
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:46.279
And that's not a good thing for me. It's good
157
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:49.480
for me when I wake up and I'm working towards something.
158
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.480
And he is, he is really struggling with not fighting
159
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:57.480
after twenty years of waking up every day training for
160
00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:00.440
a fight. Well, yeah, man, I really do pray for
161
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:02.720
this guy because I think he's a good guy. And
162
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:05.279
I think he's very lost right now because he doesn't
163
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:06.440
know who he is anymore.
164
00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:09.960
You know, maybe he's missing a huge opportunity here that
165
00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:14.559
I mean, those who can't do can then teach. And
166
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.080
so what an epic coach he could be. I mean,
167
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:20.279
he knows, he knows what to do. You're a hometown hero.
168
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:23.720
People around here love you, We think you're awesome. So
169
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.360
maybe he needs to look in the mirror in a
170
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:29.039
two way thing. Here. Two way is in like, you
171
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.200
got to pick yourself up by your bootstraps. You got
172
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.440
to lay off the alcohol, we got to make better changes.
173
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.840
But secondly, look in the mirror and realize who you are. Man.
174
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.759
You're Dustin Poiet. People around here think that you're just
175
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:41.879
you know, a hero. You can do something here that
176
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:43.840
people will look up to. You could start a gym,
177
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:46.720
you could be a coach. There's plenty of things that
178
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:49.200
you can take your talent and turn it into. He
179
00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:51.559
just needs the right people in his corner, remaining in
180
00:10:51.559 --> 00:10:54.240
his corner, and I think getting him straight and on
181
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:56.000
the right path, and I think he can really do
182
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:59.120
some amazing things. I do, he's not a total loss.
183
00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:00.679
I hope that he's got people in his ear that
184
00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:03.559
are saying, we've got you. Get yourself straight and then
185
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:06.399
let's turn this into a learning experience and you can
186
00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:09.200
you can be a coach. You know, you can help
187
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:12.440
others right with their struggle. So come on, man, get
188
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:14.759
it together. We're hoping that you that you get through
189
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.000
this and that you turn it around, all right, and
190
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:19.600
we're gonna stay here in Louisiana and give us give
191
00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:22.440
everybody this update on that Saint Tammany Parish thing. And
192
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:23.879
I know we already kind of ran it down a
193
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:26.200
little bit, but basically, this was the sheriff that was
194
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:30.000
in the restaurant. He had been drinking him in, one
195
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:32.399
of his ranking officers, and then that podcaster that had
196
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.879
been running his mouth, he beat the shit out of
197
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:37.440
him and then you know, kind of went downhill from there. Well,
198
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:40.679
here's the update. So Saint Timny Parish Sheriff for Ranny
199
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.679
Smith appeared in court and Covington this past Wednesday morning
200
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.039
and he did plead guilty to the charges stemming from
201
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:49.200
that altercation in Madisonville, and he agreed as part of
202
00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:52.159
the plea deal to resign after more than forty years
203
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:55.039
in law enforcement. Now, Smith, who has been the sheriff
204
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:57.799
since twenty sixteen, played guilty to one count of second
205
00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:00.000
degree battery, which was a felon or is a felony,
206
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:02.440
and one count of disturbing the piece by ap peering
207
00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:05.840
in an intoxicated condition. According to the arrest warrant, Smith
208
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.799
had eighteen drinks on his bar tab at Keith Young's
209
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:11.720
restaurant before the incident in which he allegedly punched a
210
00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:14.919
man from behind while the victim was celebrating his birthday.
211
00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.919
Speaking softly in court, Smith accepted responsibilities, saying quote, I
212
00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:22.080
must now face the consequences of my own mistake. It's
213
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:25.240
something that's tough. I don't take it lightly. He apologized
214
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.720
to the citizens of Saint Timany Parish, the staff and
215
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:30.720
the Sheriff's office, and his family, while noting that he
216
00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:33.639
was standing up for family at the time of the incident.
217
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:36.360
I made a mistake and now I'm facing those consequences,
218
00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:38.960
he added now. Under the plea agreement accepted by the
219
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.960
DA's office, Smith was sentenced to two years at hard labor,
220
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:45.039
but it was suspended and he was placed on two
221
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:49.000
years of supervised probation with a second or special condition
222
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.559
that he successfully complete a specialty court program expected to
223
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.080
last fifteen to eighteen months, and upon successful completion of
224
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:59.240
the program in full compliance with his probation conditions, his
225
00:12:59.279 --> 00:13:02.440
second degree batter reconviction can be reduced to a simple battery.
226
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.279
The case was investigated by the AG's office and the
227
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.360
Saint Timothy Parish Sheriff's office requested that that outside agency
228
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:11.240
handle the matter. We both know that was the right
229
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:14.320
thing to do. You shouldn't investigate yourself. And the DA's
230
00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:17.879
office prosecuted the case. So the altercation, as we said,
231
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:21.919
was May twenty ninth, and this is whenever. A second individual,
232
00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:26.360
Gregory Saarage, was also arrested and faced one count of
233
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:29.200
principal to second degree battery for allegedly pointing out the
234
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:32.080
victim to the sheriff. So Smith turned himself in on
235
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.919
June fourth at the jail and he was accompanied by
236
00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:37.919
an attorney. He was booked and released within about an hour.
237
00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:40.840
So just one day before Smith's court appearance, the second
238
00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:44.240
in command at the Sheriff's office resigned and with Smith's
239
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:51.960
retirement effective the afternoon of whenever this happened, like when
240
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.840
the report was released, Deputy Chief Brett Ibert was promoted
241
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:00.879
to the Chief Criminal Deputy. And then and let's see,
242
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.600
Ibert will serve as the interim sheriff until the new
243
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:06.279
sheriff is elected. So now, there are rumors swirling that
