1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.439
All right, folks, we got a jam packed show for

2
00:00:03.560 --> 00:00:07.960
you today. Dominating the crime news this week, Brian Koberger

3
00:00:08.119 --> 00:00:12.640
accepted a plea deal in the fatal stabbings of four

4
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:17.120
in Idaho. Some verdicts have been returned, well, all the

5
00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:20.199
verdicts in this Sean Diddy Combs trial. We're going to

6
00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:25.160
talk about that. A suspect has been identified in Idaho

7
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:30.960
that killed himself after a firefighter and Bush. We're definitely

8
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:35.240
going to cover that. Cartel violence has left twenty dead

9
00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:38.439
in Mexico. Some of these people hanging from a bridge.

10
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:41.119
You're gonna want to listen to this story. A man

11
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:47.119
drugs and smothers his wife in Arizona. The woman had

12
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:52.000
dementia and she was in a nursing facility. South Carolina

13
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.920
had a deputy get shot in another ambush.

14
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:58.240
This week, we're going to be covering.

15
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:02.560
A child falls overboard on a Disney cruise line and

16
00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:06.439
is saved by her father. We're going to cover that story.

17
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.640
Escapee Antoine Massey has finally been caught in New Orleans

18
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:14.239
and kJ loses a bet. We're gonna cover that. And

19
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:18.400
a Louisiana man has been caught after stealing an ambulance

20
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:21.480
parked outside of a hospital. We're going to tell you

21
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:24.439
all about that wacky crime, and we're going to wrap

22
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:29.439
up with why July fourth is the most violent day

23
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:33.200
of the year. We got some really good insight on

24
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:37.439
why that is. So stick with us and welcome everyone

25
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.760
to Crime Wire Weekly. I'm Jim Chapman and I'm Kelly Jenny,

26
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.439
And look, we switched it up a little bit this week.

27
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:47.280
Kelly and I told everybody kind of a little sypnosis

28
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:49.879
of all the headlines this week, so they know what

29
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.159
they're about to hear, kind of roll them in a

30
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:53.200
little bit maybe.

31
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:54.840
And I'm like, hey, it's good to know what we're

32
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.400
about to get into. You get in the mindset and

33
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:57.560
you know what you got to deal with.

34
00:01:57.719 --> 00:01:58.640
That's exactly right.

35
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:02.239
And this has been one wild week in the world

36
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:05.640
of crime. A lot of big stories have been just

37
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:07.840
fluttered through the internet.

38
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:13.560
Tragic stories too, like stories just out the box, wildness happening.

39
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.159
You know, there's no doubt about it. Some stories that'll

40
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:19.919
just flat piss you off. And we're gonna let Kelly

41
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:24.400
start this off with one of those type of stories

42
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:25.080
right now.

43
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.680
Tell us Kelly, indeed, so we're gonna go to Idaho,

44
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:32.919
and if you have followed this case to date, you're

45
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:36.120
gonna probably understand our sentiment and where we're coming from.

46
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:39.680
If not, let's get into this. So Brian Coberger has

47
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:42.319
accepted a plea deal that will spare him the death

48
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:46.280
penalty in the slayings of four University of Ohio students

49
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.039
in November of twenty twenty two. According to a letter

50
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:52.759
sent to the family's victims by prosecutors, Coburger is charged

51
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:55.639
with four counts of murder and the stabbings of Ethan Chapin,

52
00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:59.639
Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogan, and Kaylee Gonzalvez, who were killed

53
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:02.800
at a home in Moscow, Idaho, during the early morning

54
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.159
hours of November thirteenth, twenty twenty two. In the letter,

55
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:09.680
portions of which were shown by Mogan's father, Ben Mogen,

56
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.280
the county prosecutor's office says attorneys for Coburger requested a

57
00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:17.439
plea deal, and Coburger accepted it. The letter says Coburger

58
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:19.960
agreed to plead guilty to all the counts against him

59
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:22.759
and that he would be sentenced to quote four consecutive

60
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:25.560
which means back to back life sentences on the four

61
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:28.960
murder counts and would waive all rights to appeal. The

62
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:32.120
letter also says that if Coburger enters guilty, please as

63
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.879
expected at an upcoming hearing, we anticipate that this case

64
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.599
will be set for sentencing in late July. If the

65
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:41.520
defendant does not enter guilty, please as expected, we are

66
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:44.840
prepared to proceed to trial as planned. The family of

67
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:47.680
one of the other victims, Kaylee Gonsalves, also said they

68
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:50.680
received the letter about the plea deal. Coburger had been

69
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.919
fighting the charges. His trial is expected to begin in August,

70
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:57.879
following several delays. The murders terrorized the community, and for

71
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.840
weeks the hunt for a suspect was shroud in mystery.

72
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:03.879
Coburger was arrested six weeks later at his parents' home

73
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.879
in Pennsylvania. According to the police affidavit, DNA evidence linked

74
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:10.520
him to a knife sheath found at the crime scene.

75
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.000
At the time of his arrest, Coburger was a PhD

76
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:17.720
criminology student and teaching assistant at Washington State University's Pullham campus,

77
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:21.279
which is about fifteen minutes from the Moscow, Idaho area.

78
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:23.959
Ben Mogan said he was relieved to get the letter

79
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.439
about the plea deal, and this is a direct quote.

80
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:28.800
If you get a quick death sentence, then you know

81
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:31.480
you don't have to spend decades thinking about how terrible

82
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:33.920
you made the world. He said. We can actually put

83
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.399
this behind us and not have these future dates and

84
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:38.360
future things that we don't want to have to be

85
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:40.720
at that we shouldn't have to be at, that have

86
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:43.240
to do with this terrible person, he said. We get

87
00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:45.079
to just think about the rest of our lives and

88
00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:46.959
have to try and figure out how to do it

89
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.639
without Maddie and without the rest of the kids. The

90
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.800
Consolvest family, however, said they are beyond furious at the

91
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.639
state of Idaho in a Facebook post shortly after the

92
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.839
news broke. They have failed us. This was very unexpected,

93
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:01.800
they wrote. The family he said that the prosecutor's office

94
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:05.199
vaguely mentioned a possible plea on Friday without seeking our input,

95
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.199
and presented the plea on Sunday. The family has pushed

96
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:11.240
for Coburger to face the death penalty. The introduction of

97
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:13.959
this plea deal just weeks before the scheduled trial is

98
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:17.360
both shocking and cruel. Aubrey Consolvest, the youngest member of

99
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:20.079
the family wrote, and a letter shared on Facebook, Brian

100
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:22.879
Coburger facing a life in prison means he would still

101
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:27.240
get to speak, form relationships and engage with the world. Meanwhile,

102
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:31.240
our loved ones have been silenced. In another statement released Tuesday,

103
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:34.639
the consolvist's family said they will not stop fighting for

104
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:37.959
the life that was stolen unjustly. We stand strong that

105
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.600
it is not over until a plea is accepted. They wrote.

106
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.120
At a bare minimum, please require a full confession, full accountability,

107
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:48.920
location of the murder, weapon, confirmation the defendant acted alone,

108
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:52.439
and the true facts of what happened that night. Martin Diaz,

109
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:54.680
an attorney for the Coburger family, said in a statement

110
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:57.199
provided to CBS News Tuesday evening on behalf of the

111
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.920
family that in light of the recent developments, the coburg

112
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:03.160
are asking members of the media for privacy, respect, and

113
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.240
responsible judgment. During this time, we will continue to allow

114
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:08.839
the legal process to unfold with respect to all parties,

115
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:11.600
and will not release any comments or take any questions.

116
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:13.519
The trial was originally going to be held in the

117
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.439
county where the murders occurred, but the judge later ordered

118
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:19.360
the trial to be moved over concerns the media coverage

119
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:22.160
and statements from local officials would make it impossible for

120
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:25.360
Coburger to receive a fair trial. The Idaho Supreme Court

121
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.959
moved the proceedings to Boise. Coburger's defense team had previously

122
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:31.319
tried to remove the death penalty as a possible sentence

123
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:34.759
if he was convicted, but County Judge Stephen Hipler denied

124
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:37.360
their emotions. Back in November of twenty twenty four, among

125
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.639
the evidence prosecutors were planning to present was Coburger's Amazon

126
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.480
purchase history showing he bought a k bar knife with

127
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:47.000
sheaf and sharpener, which they claimed match the sheath found

128
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.560
at the crime scene. Prosecutors also claimed touch DNA matching

129
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:54.319
DNA taken from Coburger was found on the sheath. The

130
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:57.360
defense tried to exclude the touch DNA evidence, but Hipler

131
00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:01.120
denied that request. Prosecutors were also playing to present surveillance

132
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.959
video of Coburger's car and cell phone data that they

133
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:07.199
said tied him to the vicinity of the killings. Last week,

134
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:10.160
the judge denied emotion by Coburger's lawyers to argue that

135
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.560
four alternate perpetrators could have committed the murders. The judge

136
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:17.040
called it rank speculation and said nothing links these individuals

137
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.079
to the homicides. So we have a clip for you

138
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:22.399
to listen to via News Nation of Kaylee Consolvas's father

139
00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:25.279
reacting to the news of Coburger accepting this plea deal.

140
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:26.879
Listen to the emotion here.

141
00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:29.480
But I wanted you to have your say. I wanted

142
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.240
you to be able to say out loud for everyone

143
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.399
to hear what this means to you and your family.

144
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.759
This is anything but justice. This is the opposite of

145
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:45.360
our will. There was no majority believing that this was acceptable.

146
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:49.959
I want to honor all the police officers, the FBI,

147
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.600
and all the people that work their tail off. The

148
00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:57.199
failure is at the court level of one percent, but

149
00:07:57.439 --> 00:07:59.519
the men in the boots on the ground and the

150
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.160
women we're out there working. I want to honor everything

151
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:08.639
that they did for our children. One the fault is

152
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:15.000
in leadership and the people that you place this evidence upon.

153
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:21.040
They they or week they decided to play god and

154
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:23.920
decide what this man's decision should be.

155
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:27.279
And not a journey, not a peers, not his peers.

156
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:31.759
They you know. So that's where we are today.

157
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.159
Walk me through what happened.

158
00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:38.799
Brian Innton. You know, did some really great reporting at

159
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:41.279
the top of this show here. But tell me from

160
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:44.919
your perspective how the last three days have played out.

161
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:52.919
I would say, ever since Hippler has demanded an independent investigation,

162
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:56.799
they couldn't get away from this case fast enough. They've

163
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.480
done everything to make this case go away. So I

164
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:04.080
don't know what that entails. But he said he was

165
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:07.480
going to have an independent investigator, and all of a sudden,

166
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:10.240
we seemed like we were on rails to get rid

167
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:13.240
of this case and make a plea deal. I mean,

168
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.639
he's guilty. We all know he's guilty. There's more than

169
00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:21.000
enough evidence. But it's tough. It's tough to put a

170
00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:25.759
community through this, and it could be bad for reputations

171
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:29.840
and business identities, and there's fallout.

172
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:36.320
But this isn't the will of the victims.

173
00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:42.240
This is just one person making a decision and it

174
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:44.440
doesn't reflect what we were asking for.

175
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.279
Steve, did anybody ever call you from the prosecutor's office

176
00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:53.639
to just personally discuss this with you? Did anybody offer

177
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:56.960
to meet with you in person to go over this

178
00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:58.159
potential plan.

179
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:03.320
We have meetings all the time on particularly a lot

180
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:08.519
of times on Friday. No, no, no, we had this

181
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:11.559
regular meeting that we have to try and basically do

182
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:14.080
an update of what's going on where things are at.

183
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:17.440
Because Idaho is actually an amazing state where it really

184
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:20.200
does care about people. We just get one or two,

185
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.039
you know, people who just don't care about the victims

186
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.240
and don't care about justice, and they.

187
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.279
It's easy to take the weight out.

188
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.679
It's easy to make an excuse and say I'm doing

189
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:33.759
this for the victims, even though I've never interviewed the victims,

190
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:36.279
I've never really talked to them to find out what

191
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:38.039
their true feelings are.

192
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:40.840
So here we are.

193
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:41.360
We're stuck.

194
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:43.480
We're stuck, and we can't get out of it.

195
00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:49.120
I ask you, your audience, if anybody knows Judge Hitler,

196
00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.000
reach out to him and ask him to put his

197
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:55.039
foot down and not accept this offer. It doesn't reflect

198
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:58.039
anything in Idaho.

199
00:10:58.159 --> 00:10:59.279
This is not justice.

200
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.720
We had an outsider come to our community kill our

201
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:05.399
kids in their sleep while they're getting at college education

202
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:08.360
doing everything that they should do, and we don't have

203
00:11:08.440 --> 00:11:12.159
the courage to hold him accountable. No, plea deal, Let's

204
00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:14.960
go for this guy one hundred percent. Let's do it,

205
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:18.159
and that that's how that's how this family stands.

206
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:23.200
See, I know that you know it's no secret your

207
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:27.639
daughter Kaylee was so close with Matty Mogan, best of friends,

208
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:32.320
and I know that you got to know the Mogan

209
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.559
family as well. Have you spoken with the Mogan family

210
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:38.200
and do you know what their reaction is to this

211
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:39.080
plea decision.

212
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:45.240
We actually just had a meeting with the prosecution and

213
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:51.240
just tore into it and made it clear that we

214
00:11:51.399 --> 00:11:54.639
were not in support of this. But we also invited

215
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:57.440
other families into that and I'll let them speak on.

216
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.159
Their own that were part of that meeting, But we

217
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.240
are in no way alone on this.

218
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.600
Multiple families believe the same as we do, but I

219
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:11.960
want to honor their abilities to speak independently and as

220
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:16.679
their child, So I don't want to cross that line.

221
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:19.879
But all I will say is there was no majority

222
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:22.120
for this decision at all.

223
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:27.080
And if they're not working for us, they're working against us.

224
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:27.519
Guys.

225
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:29.399
I mean, we have to wake up to this. I

226
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:33.080
mean we have to hold people accountable.

227
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:36.799
Portal Aane just had our shooting where we attacked our firemens.

228
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:41.279
People need to stand up to these monsters and stop

229
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:46.559
fricking bounding down to them and giving them childcare. I mean,

230
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:51.200
prison is nothing but adult childcare. You get free vision,

231
00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:53.759
you get free dental, you get free males, you get

232
00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:58.320
ac room and board, cable TV, internet access.

233
00:12:57.799 --> 00:12:59.200
It's ridiculous.

234
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.519
What we give our prison better than what we treat

235
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:05.159
our Vietnam our vets, our vets coming back from war

236
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:06.399
with missing limbs.

237
00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:09.240
This is unacceptable, all right, Jim thoughts on that, What

238
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:09.639
do you think?

239
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:14.240
I'm disgusted about this. When I first saw this, I assumed.

240
00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:17.840
I assumed that this was the wishes of the family,

241
00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:22.159
because you will see that sometimes with death penalty cases,

242
00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:26.440
where a deal is made, and primarily it's that the

243
00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:31.639
wishes of the family affected, and they don't want to relive, right,

244
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:33.039
They don't want to relive that.

245
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:35.840
And who am I to judge whether.

246
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:40.960
Someone should be made to relive the absolute fucking butchering

247
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:42.120
of their kid.

248
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:45.200
So when I saw this, that was my thought.

249
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.840
Then the report started coming out, and come to find out,

250
00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:52.919
not only was one family, but the majority of families

251
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:57.399
in this case were upset, very upset that this was

252
00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:01.360
done essentially behind their back. They were made aware of it,

253
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:04.720
and it was their contention that they really had no

254
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:07.360
choice in the matter. So it makes me wonder, and

255
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:12.240
I'm purely speculating here, it makes me wonder if some

256
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:16.240
of this evidence may have been attained in a not.

257
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:18.759
So legal way. Let's just say.

258
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:23.200
That maybe some of that familiar DNA they didn't really

259
00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:27.200
have the right to go on someone's property and dig

260
00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:29.600
through their trash and get without a warrant.

261
00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:31.240
Or maybe they didn't have a warrant.

262
00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:34.559
I don't know, Maybe they did something is a mess

263
00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:35.279
you talked about.

264
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:37.799
Maybe they didn't have good procedure whenever they got the

265
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:40.720
trash to get the DNA. Well, just if people aren't

266
00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:43.600
familiar with this, you have a thing called curtilage, which

267
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:47.120
is going to be basically the area between your sidewalk

268
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:50.399
and the street. So when you bring your trash can

269
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:52.799
and you put it there to be picked up, that

270
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:55.120
in and of itself is not a protected area, and

271
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:57.720
you can collect things from curtilage to get the DNA.

272
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.639
It's done all the time, and it's not frowned upon.

273
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:03.720
It's actually a procedure that's pretty you know, common.

274
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:06.759
Well, it has to be in a certain spot, right.

275
00:15:06.759 --> 00:15:08.679
I'm just saying, so, I mean, it's not like you're

276
00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:11.159
stealing trash. I mean, if it's in a spot whatever.

277
00:15:11.639 --> 00:15:15.320
So where I'm coming in on this altogether is we've

278
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:17.440
worked all this time, and I say we, as the

279
00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:20.279
collective right, we trust in this process. We trust that

280
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.720
you're going to do a bang up job. We found

281
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.519
the guy. There's no doubt in majority of people's minds

282
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:28.919
whether he did it or not. Now it's coming down

283
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:33.120
to what should a penalty look like. And my personal

284
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:36.600
opinion is that conviction does not equal justice. And I'm

285
00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:39.840
saying that through through the scope of being a victim,

286
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:43.080
because just because someone is convicted, for example, and let's

287
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:44.679
say they went to jail for not for this case,

288
00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:46.039
but let's say you go to jail for you know,

289
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.320
thirty days for something that you did that doesn't fix

290
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:50.639
what you did to me, that doesn't undo what you

291
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.159
did to me, and then begs the question, Okay, what

292
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.240
do you want to do? Well in this case specifically,

293
00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:58.919
this is exactly what the death penalty is for. It's

294
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:02.799
for cases like this. If this does not qualify, nothing

295
00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.919
would qualify for a death penalty case. And the death

296
00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:09.559
penalty should not be a bargaining chip for prosecutors who

297
00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.639
I feel lack of backbone. Right now, they're getting that

298
00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:16.840
easy conviction that shows a win on his record, which,

299
00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:18.879
by the way, the prosecutor is going to retire after

300
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:22.039
this from what I read. So you get this easy

301
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.000
conviction and then he doesn't have to say a lot

302
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:28.840
of anything. He really doesn't. If he could confesses great,

303
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:30.919
we already know that. No shit, shear a lot. These

304
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:35.000
families want some semblance of why why did you do this?

305
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:37.679
What could draw you here? And all he has to

306
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:41.159
do is say, yeah, I did it. We already know that.

307
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:44.320
He knows that. He held out to the very end

308
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:46.639
because the death penalty was on the table. He waited

309
00:16:46.679 --> 00:16:47.919
to see if he was going to get any type

310
00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:49.919
of plea deal from the prosecution, which he did not

311
00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:52.279
get offered from the prosecution to come in and say, hey,

312
00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:53.840
well why don't we do this, that and the other.

313
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:57.480
Then he became a total chicken shit and wanted to

314
00:16:57.480 --> 00:16:59.360
come up with this fake oh there might have been

315
00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:01.320
other people that did it, which tells me he's a

316
00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:06.480
fucking liar. And then after that gets shot down, then

317
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:09.640
the prosecution turns around and offers a plea deal without

318
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:12.759
notifying the family ahead of time, so that they can

319
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:16.000
get the win. This is not a win as far

320
00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:19.079
as families are concerned. There is no winning. The families

321
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:22.599
will never win. What this was was that his life

322
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:24.279
should be put on the line. And I'm gonna add

323
00:17:24.279 --> 00:17:27.400
one more thing to that. People came after me on

324
00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:29.519
TikTok okay because I made a TikTok about this one,

325
00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:32.279
and they're like, well, I just have to disagree with you.

326
00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:34.920
You know, life in prison, the family doesn't have to worry.

327
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:37.240
Blah blah blah blah blah. Well, let's go back to

328
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:40.400
what that little sister said, because she nailed it. Because

329
00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:44.400
as a person who has worked at a maximum security

330
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:47.319
penitentiary where there is death row and there is population

331
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:53.440
prisoners alike, population prisoners still have a life. They can

332
00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:56.519
talk to their families, they can watch TV, they can

333
00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:59.880
play games, they can make hobbycraft for example where we are,

334
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:01.359
and they can sell it out a rodeo. I'm not

335
00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.200
saying he's coming here, but I'm just giving you an example.

336
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.599
They can be a part of thing. They continue to study,

337
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:09.680
they can do schooling, They can do a lot of

338
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:11.720
things and build a life in prison. It may not

339
00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:14.839
be ideal, but it's still a life. The death row experience,

340
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:16.759
and I want listeners to hear me on this. The

341
00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:20.880
death row experience is a motherfucker. They are locked down

342
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:24.240
twenty three hours a day. They are allowed one hour

343
00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.319
out to walk, a tear or go outside weather permitting,

344
00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:32.519
in a cage. It is a miserable life. Miserable and

345
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:34.079
giving him I don't give it care. If you give

346
00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:37.079
him a hundred life sentences, he still gets to have

347
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:41.920
a life. And it's as a parent, a side with

348
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:43.759
the dad on this and a side with the sister.

349
00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:45.039
It's a cop out.

350
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:48.720
And we know now that he killed these four people.

351
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:51.920
And I want everybody to hear this clip. This is

352
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:58.839
the plead from Brian Coburger actually pleading to all.

353
00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:02.240
Four deaths as guilty.

354
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:06.559
Here's that Therefore, with respect to count one burglary felony,

355
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:08.960
how do you plead, mister Colberger guilty or not guilty

356
00:19:09.720 --> 00:19:14.160
guilty as to count two murder in the first degree

357
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:17.559
as it relates to the murder of Madison Mogan.

358
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:20.720
How do you plead guilty or not guilty guilty as to.

359
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:23.240
Count three as it relates to murder in the first

360
00:19:23.240 --> 00:19:25.039
degree for the murder of Kaylee Gonsalvez.

361
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:25.960
How do you plead guilty?

362
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:30.720
You're not guilty guilty as to count four, the first

363
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:34.960
degree murder of Xana Cernodle, pardon me, human being? How

364
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:37.960
do you plead guilty or not guilty guilty as to

365
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:42.640
count five? The first degree murder of Ethan Chapin, human being?

366
00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:44.359
How do you plead guilty or not guilty?

367
00:19:44.440 --> 00:19:44.920
Guilty?

368
00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:48.119
You just heard that clip, and no matter what you

369
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:52.799
think in this case, you just heard a guy plead

370
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:58.079
to the murders of four people. And Kelly's right. He

371
00:19:58.160 --> 00:20:02.240
gets to live and they don't, and the family didn't

372
00:20:02.359 --> 00:20:07.079
like it. It's very upsetting to me. I'm obviously very

373
00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:09.880
upsetting to Kelly. It's disgusting.

374
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:12.440
I'll say this. I try to put myself in other

375
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:15.440
people's shoes. I do. And my heart also hurts for

376
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:18.240
the Coburger family, like the parents, because they didn't do this.

377
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:21.079
You know, they're in a bad position too. It seems

378
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:22.799
like they're respectful. They said, we're just not going to

379
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:25.400
say anything. You know, nothing they could say anyway would

380
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:26.480
be well taken.

381
00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:28.759
They will get their day in court and they will

382
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:32.680
get to look this asshole in the face and tell

383
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:35.680
him what they think about him because during the sentencing,

384
00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:36.440
what do we have.

385
00:20:36.359 --> 00:20:38.160
Kelly, what's it called victim impact statement?

386
00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:42.400
Victim impact statements? And in those victim impact statements, I

387
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:45.000
can't wait for him. I can't wait for these people

388
00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:47.720
to get the opportunity to look this guy in the

389
00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:49.839
face and tell him what a monster he is.

390
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:53.279
And I hope that they are given ample time.

391
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:54.559
Let's move on.

392
00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:58.440
To New York City and we're going to talk about. Wow,

393
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:02.240
the case maybe the trial of all trials so far

394
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:06.400
in this century, and that is Sean Diddy Combs, who

395
00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:11.039
was found not guilty of racketeering and sex trafficking. He

396
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:15.440
was convicted of some lesser charges. And when I say lesser,

397
00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:17.200
I mean lesser.

398
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:19.240
Of all the charges he could be convicted of.

399
00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:22.160
Those were the ones he wanted to get convicted of,

400
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:25.720
if he had to be convicted of anything. Of course,

401
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:31.079
the global hip hop titan, whose federal trial unveiled harrowing

402
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:35.839
testimony that accused him of sexual abuse against women and

403
00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:43.200
forced drug dazed freak offs, was acquitted just Wednesday on racketeering, conspiracy,

404
00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:46.559
and sex trafficking. Now, the Jersey's verdict was delivered on

405
00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:50.920
the third day of deliberations. Uh, they found did he

406
00:21:51.079 --> 00:21:54.400
not guilty of one count of racketeering conspiracy in two

407
00:21:54.480 --> 00:21:58.920
counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, but

408
00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:01.920
they did find him guilty two counts of transportation to

409
00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:03.519
engage in prostitution.

410
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:05.400
This verdict, as I.

411
00:22:05.359 --> 00:22:07.880
Told you, it's seen as a win for Combs and

412
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.160
his defense team, which they did not call a single

413
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:15.440
witness during the seven week trial. And after the verdict

414
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:19.519
was read, his family stood in the background clapping and cheering.

415
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:23.559
Comes then fell to his knees in prayer. As he

416
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:26.119
left the court room, he told his family, thank you,

417
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.759
I love you. Teeny Gerges, one of Comb's attorneys, actually

418
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:35.160
broke out in tears. His lead attorney, Mark Agnafillo, he

419
00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:39.319
made a fist in triumph as the defense team hugged

420
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:42.119
each other and hugged his family, And it really made

421
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:45.480
me think about the I was just about as disgusted

422
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:50.440
as when the oj Simpson trial took place. And Johnny Cochran, who,

423
00:22:50.599 --> 00:22:54.720
regardless of what you think of Johnny Cochrane, probably the

424
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:58.279
best attorney I've ever seen it relating to a jury,

425
00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:01.079
that Sucker could just talk to people. Man, he was

426
00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:05.599
extremely talented as a defense attorney. But when they announced

427
00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:09.160
the not guilty plea in the oj Simpson trial, the

428
00:23:09.240 --> 00:23:11.920
first thing you heard was a shriek and a bunch

429
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:17.160
of crying from the sister of Ron Goldman, who was

430
00:23:17.759 --> 00:23:18.119
you know.

431
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:19.759
Murdered brutally.

432
00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:23.480
And the second thing you see is Johnny Crockran scream

433
00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:28.400
yes and pat Oj on the shoulder. And look, there

434
00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:31.519
was no celebration there. Everybody knew Oja did it. But

435
00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:34.559
even if you're excited about a win, how could you

436
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:37.559
do that with somebody in the audience screaming and crying

437
00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:40.160
because her brother did not get justice.

438
00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:41.640
I will never understand.

439
00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:45.519
Now, to clear it up quickly, Combs is still facing

440
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:51.000
considerable prison time at sentencing the prostitution transportation charge, so

441
00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:54.079
he could get twenty years with those two counts. And

442
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:59.359
I want to say this, initially yesterday when this verdict

443
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:01.920
came down, I was not surprised. I did not feel

444
00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:05.440
like they proved beyond a reasonable doubt the counts that

445
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:07.160
they needed to prove.

446
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:07.559
I didn't.

447
00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:09.680
I'm not saying I agree with them. I'm saying the

448
00:24:09.720 --> 00:24:13.319
prosecution did not prove that beyond a reasonable doubt the

449
00:24:13.319 --> 00:24:16.480
ones he was convicted of I agree with I assumed

450
00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:18.680
initially he wasn't going to do any jail time, But

451
00:24:18.759 --> 00:24:23.400
something shocking, in my opinion, happened yesterday. The defense attorney

452
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:27.559
basically said, all right, you know it's time for him

453
00:24:27.559 --> 00:24:31.200
to get out of jail until sentencing, considering he's only

454
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:34.279
charged with two minor counts in comparison to what he's

455
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:37.960
facing life in prison. And he judge said, nope, he's

456
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:39.640
not getting out of jail till his sentencing.

457
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:41.200
That told me something.

458
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:44.920
They got the red ass for Shawn Combs, and I

459
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:47.839
think that Shawn Combs is going to do every day

460
00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:50.279
of that twenty years. I think they're going to sendence

461
00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:54.079
him to the max. In both cases. I think they're

462
00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:58.079
pissed that they lost this case. The prosecution certainly is

463
00:24:58.119 --> 00:25:00.680
going to ask for the max of twenty years. And

464
00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:05.559
in this trial, you heard the defense team own the

465
00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:09.400
fact that Sean Combs was a abuser of women, a

466
00:25:09.440 --> 00:25:12.359
physical abuser, and they said that in court we own

467
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:17.319
that we can't get away with that he beats women. Well,

468
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:20.400
in a court of law, you're supposed to have a

469
00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:24.440
blindfold and you're supposed to ignore all these other circumstances

470
00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:27.680
that aren't necessarily part of what you're getting prosecuted with.

471
00:25:28.279 --> 00:25:31.720
But we're also human, and I guarantee you that judge,

472
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:34.440
he won't he didn't like that.

473
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:35.799
How many how many he's.

474
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:36.440
Gonna make paid?

475
00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:39.359
How many years has did he been behind bars? About

476
00:25:39.400 --> 00:25:40.400
a year a waiting trial?

477
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:41.000
All right?

478
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:47.200
So worst situation imaginable is they do them consecutively, which

479
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:49.240
would be the full twenty years. Then they're going to

480
00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:51.400
give him credit for the year time serve, which means

481
00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:54.480
he would serve nineteen. Now what happens here is they

482
00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:56.519
can give him good time for that, which means if

483
00:25:56.599 --> 00:25:59.839
basically you're good, then they'll knock time off of your sentence.

484
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:03.599
So they also offer things called double good time. So

485
00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:06.200
what you could do on average is you could divide

486
00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:09.119
it in half and say, you know, at least he

487
00:26:09.160 --> 00:26:11.400
would spend half of that. So what's half of nineteen?

488
00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:13.559
What is that?

489
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.279
It's like nine and yeah, nine nine, it'd be like

490
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:22.039
nine something. So that would be, in my opinion, worst

491
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:26.440
case scenario, which is unbelievable. I have seen people do

492
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:30.200
fifteen to twenty years for much less, in my opinion,

493
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:33.799
in the whole totality, of this case. But the judge

494
00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:37.400
could also say, no, I'm gonna sentence you to max,

495
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:39.480
but we're gonna run them concurrently, which means they would

496
00:26:39.519 --> 00:26:41.160
run at the same time, which means it's a ten

497
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:44.240
year flat sentence. But again, he can be getting that

498
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:46.160
good time and he'd.

499
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:49.000
Be out less than five which was my first inclination.

500
00:26:49.160 --> 00:26:51.359
But the fact that he made him stay in jail

501
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:54.680
makes me think they're gonna they're gonna send him to

502
00:26:54.759 --> 00:26:57.640
some pretty hard time. Now let me let me flip

503
00:26:57.720 --> 00:27:00.839
what you said just a little bit, ok, some perspective

504
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:03.160
on it. We all know did He's a piece of

505
00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:05.240
shit and he needs to be in jail the rest

506
00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:08.480
of his life for all the stuff he wasn't convicted.

507
00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:10.319
Of, and to protect people in the future, honestly, because

508
00:27:10.359 --> 00:27:11.480
he's correct.

509
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:14.440
So I'm not defending did He here. But what I'm

510
00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:16.599
doing is I'm taking Diddy out of the equation and

511
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:17.359
I'm giving.

512
00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:18.759
You the charges he was convicted of.

513
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:22.480
He was basically convicted of paying prostitutes to get on

514
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:24.279
a plane come to him and have a freak off

515
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:27.039
with him and his girlfriend right when it's.

516
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:27.599
All said and done.

517
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:31.319
That's most people that get caught with prostitutes do no

518
00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:35.759
jail time none. If it was someone that was just

519
00:27:35.839 --> 00:27:38.160
a normal person and they were being charged with this,

520
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:42.359
If maybe they got online and flew someone from Las

521
00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:45.759
Vegas and in Louisiana for the purpose of prostitution, that

522
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:49.240
same charge he got, I don't see anybody really getting

523
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:54.880
ten years for that in normal circumstances. So if he

524
00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.920
ends up with just what you said, nine years, let's say,

525
00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:02.640
in prison for two instances of flying someone in to

526
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:06.440
have sex with him and his girlfriend, I would say

527
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:10.240
that's pretty hard time for those charges. Doesn't mean he

528
00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:12.440
doesn't deserve life for all the other stuff, but he

529
00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:13.640
was not found guilty of it.

530
00:28:13.799 --> 00:28:16.680
But hence why the judge has discretion here? And can

531
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:19.799
you know minimum to max? I know this, a whole

532
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:22.680
lot of people didn't testify, and that has to make

533
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:27.400
a defense team that doesn't bring one witness, not one.

534
00:28:28.240 --> 00:28:29.160
Isn't that what you just said?

535
00:28:29.279 --> 00:28:29.720
None?

536
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:36.160
None? On what planet could you not put one person

537
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:42.039
up without worrying what they might say on really really

538
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:42.519
weigh that.

539
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:46.640
Well? In hindsight, it seems like the right call.

540
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:52.200
It was, obviously, but you don't trust people enough that

541
00:28:52.400 --> 00:28:55.799
favorable witness that people that would come for your favor.

542
00:28:58.359 --> 00:29:00.519
What it tells me is they were much more afraid

543
00:29:00.559 --> 00:29:03.119
of the cross and what might get brought up on

544
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:05.359
that on that you know that, and.

545
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:08.079
You didn't even have character like his mother didn't get

546
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:10.680
called up to speak as a character witness for Dinny.

547
00:29:10.480 --> 00:29:13.519
Because his mama wouldn't have outweighed everything they had already seen.

548
00:29:13.720 --> 00:29:14.319
It was.

549
00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:18.000
It was fruitless and all it would do was in essence,

550
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:20.000
you know, piss people off more that. Okay, of course

551
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:21.920
you brought your mama up, bring somebody else up. So

552
00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:24.680
it's strategically smart, in my opinion, not bring anybody versus

553
00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:28.200
bringing people inherently that would protect you. There's a whole

554
00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:30.319
lot of people breathing a sigh of relief, I would say.

555
00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:32.440
In the celebrity realm.

556
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:33.119
I would agree.

557
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:37.880
And if you beat the feds, wow, yeah.

558
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:39.759
That's me. That that's the big thing.

559
00:29:40.799 --> 00:29:45.799
Conventional unlimited resources, unlimited ability to do to go after you,

560
00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:50.160
and you walk on, you know, in essence, So let's see.

561
00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:51.799
I do hope you get some time, and I hope

562
00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:52.759
it's some solid time.

563
00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:53.599
I think it will.

564
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:55.000
I think it will be hearned it.

565
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:58.880
So the grim reality of Mexico's escalating cartel violence was

566
00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:03.839
underscored on money, as four decapitated bodies were found hanging

567
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:07.759
from a bridge. This horrific discovery comes amidst a surge

568
00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:10.680
of bloodshed that has claimed nearly twenty lives in less

569
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:15.319
than twenty four hours, according to authorities. Hey everyone, Crime
