00:00:11.919 --> 00:00:14.919
All right, folks, welcome back, and do we have some

2
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:18.559
topics to cover today in the world of crime. But

3
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:20.839
before we get into that, I just want to say,

4
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:24.920
if you are a child of the eighties like I am,

5
00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:28.320
this past week, week and a half, Kelly Jennings, holy.

6
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:30.079
Smokes, what's going on?

7
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:34.920
Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan and theo from the Cosby Show

8
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:40.640
ID And it happened in threes, just like it always does.

9
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:44.560
That's so tragic too, it is, it really is.

10
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:45.600
Uh.

11
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:50.039
You know, Hulk Hogan for me as an eighties boy,

12
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:56.079
uh was larger than life, totally a pop culture superstar

13
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.359
and the world is going to miss him, There's no

14
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:00.520
doubt about it.

15
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:04.439
Such a huge personality too, you know, like and brought

16
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.040
like a happy character like you know, you don't think

17
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.959
of Hulk Cogan as being a you know, drama filled

18
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.599
person For the most part, it was just pure entertainment.

19
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.920
Yeah, say your prayers, take your vitamins and work out.

20
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:20.159
That was his three mantras. And I'll tell you what.

21
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:22.599
I took vitamins as a kid because I believed I

22
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:23.920
was going to be as big as up.

23
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:25.640
Cookin and you are what are you talking about?

24
00:01:28.239 --> 00:01:33.280
Yeah, right, he was the man, and of course Ozzy

25
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:36.840
Osbourne just before him passed away, I listened to a

26
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:39.799
little Ozzy Osbourne. He's a little hard for me. But

27
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:42.519
when I was a kid, I can remember I hung

28
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:44.799
out with some older people and used to listen to

29
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:48.879
Ozzy Osbourne through a speaker that was taller than than

30
00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:49.239
I am.

31
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.519
Now, how old were you? What ye were you born?

32
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:54.480
I was born in seventy four.

33
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:58.560
See, I was born in eighty four, so Ozzy wasn't

34
00:01:58.640 --> 00:01:59.280
quite my speed.

35
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.120
I was more like rhymes at that point.

36
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:05.200
But but I could tell you as I got older.

37
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.680
My mom really liked Ozzy Osbourne, and we watched the

38
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.520
Osbourne's This show when he was you know, on that

39
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:14.120
reality show, and I just was so tickled by him

40
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:14.680
as a person.

41
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:17.360
Just he was funny, he was he was a character.

42
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:19.680
And then of course THEO from the Cosby Show. I

43
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:21.080
grew up with him. He might have been a little

44
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:22.439
before you.

45
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.280
No, I actually remember Theo more than I do Ozzy

46
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:28.520
as my childhood because we watched The Huxtables Man, we

47
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.800
watched The Cosby Show in our in our house.

48
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:33.280
And he's just a good person, like a good character

49
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:35.280
and seemed to be a really good person in real life.

50
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:40.639
So yeah, horrible the way he passed away a drowning.

51
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.680
With his kid, Yeah, with his kid?

52
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:48.479
God? What man? All right, well, we we sure give

53
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:51.479
our thoughts and prayers to the families of all those

54
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:55.840
people who passed away that are kind of like eighty superstars.

55
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.719
And we'll just get right into today's episode and look

A double murder in an Arkansas state park which led

58
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.840
to a massive man hunt. We're going to talk about that.

59
00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:16.639
For adults in Florida, we're arrested after torturing kids, and

60
00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:20.599
the manner in which they tortured them is shocking, to

61
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:24.000
say the least. We're going to discuss that. And Florida.

62
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:28.120
A man is behind bars after he steals his friends

63
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:32.039
PlayStation five and goes on a shoppings where what kind

64
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:33.479
of friend is that? Lloyd?

65
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:35.039
That's your friends and his enemies.

66
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.560
I'm telling you, keep your hands off my PlayStation five.

67
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:42.240
You don't ever take my shit. A sixty nine year

is having a six year affair and he takes matters

71
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:53.360
into his own hands. We're going to talk about that.

72
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:58.639
A Louisiana woman with Medicaid benefits buys a Lamborghini.

73
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:03.639
We are in the wrong business here, apparently, Jimothy. Yeah,

74
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:04.800
I ain't got no Lambo.

75
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:07.840
She buys a Lamba and the you know, we're paying

76
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.199
for her benefits. She was in Medicaid. How do you

We're gonna talk about that. And of course, the big

80
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.920
the big news of the week, I guess you could say,

81
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.480
was an attack at a walmart where eleven people were

82
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:26.480
stabbed before good Samaritans actually brought the incident to an end.

83
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:29.879
We're gonna definitely be discussing that and a bunch of

84
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:33.839
other stories today. So welcome to Crime Wire Weekly.

85
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:36.160
I'm Jim Chapman and I'm Kelly Jennings.

00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.000
You ready to get into it? And before we start,

87
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:42.720

88
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:48.120
Hey God gave me this voice, Jim No, I'm in Florida.

92
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:55.879
Usually I walk in and Jimithy has it already for me,

93
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.000

94

I'm definitely not in Florida.

95
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:00.800
No.

96
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:04.319
And I'm looking out right now off the balcony and

97
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:06.399
staring at the water and I'm having a good time.

98
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:09.680
Well, I'm looking out in the parking lot and there's

99
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:16.279
a bunch of cars and oh, well, Jim, you know,

Yeah, there you go. All right, we'll get we'll get

00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.680
into it today, and we're going to bring to Arkansas first,

108
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:39.439
all right, and we're going to talk about a manhunt

109
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:44.160
that was underway where sadly, there was a double murder

110
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:48.120
at a state park. So Clinton David Brink, who is

111
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.720
forty three, and Kristen Brink, who is forty one. They

112
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:55.040
were hiking with their two daughters. Their two daughters were

113
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:57.959
young nine and seven years old, at what's known as

114
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:03.480
Devil's Den State Park in Arkansas. They were attacked Saturday

115
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:08.759
afternoon with a knife with a knife mind you pretty

116
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:12.439
personal there. The girls were not injured and they are

117
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:16.560
safe with relatives now. Authorities were alerted about a double

118
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:21.920
homicide in that park on Saturday at about two forty pm.

119
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:25.839
The couple's bodies were found on a walking trail. The

120
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:29.639
area they were found in was described as very remote,

121
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:32.959
very rural, had rugged terrain, It had a lot of

122
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:37.519
thick vegetation in that area, and unfortunately there was no

123
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:40.920
cell phone service in that area of the park. It

124
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:45.040
has remained cordoned off ever since and secured by police.

125
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.920
The conditions of the bodies, they didn't disclose that. The

126
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:52.160
state crime lab, of course, will confirm the manner of

127
00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:56.360
death and the cause of death. Now. The killer has

128
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.480
been described as a white male, medium bill wearing a

129
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:03.360
long sleep shirt, sleeves rolled up, dark pants, dark ball

130
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.600
cap and sunglasses. And you may say, damn, that's the

131
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:11.480
best description. Yeah, they know all that. Well, actually, there's

132
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.160
a picture of him. Somebody else that was hiking took

133
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:18.399
a picture of like the scenery, and he's in the

134
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:22.720
picture like Bigfoot. He's off in the distance, like he's faced. Well,

135
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:25.399
they zoomed in on it looked like the person was

136
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:27.439
right behind him. And he was looking out. That's the

137
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:30.720
only bad thing. He wasn't facing the person that took

138
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:33.959
the picture. Uh, but they did have, you know, a

139
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:37.040
good description of everything he was wearing. Obviously, he was

140
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:41.959
seen exiting the park in a black four door sedan,

141
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:44.519
may have been a mas Do with a license plate

142
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:48.680
covered by duct tape or electrical tape. The vehicle may

143
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:51.319
be in a may have been traveling near the state

144
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:54.600
the state park on Highway one seventy. So if you're

145
00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:56.480
an Arkansas person, you know what that is.

146
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:59.279
And that's a right there. That pre planning was huge

147
00:07:59.319 --> 00:07:59.519
with that.

148
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:01.639
Yeah, premeditated.

149
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:03.759
Yeah, absolutely, he just you.

150
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.399
Know, he just screwed up his whole defense of temporary insanity,

151
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:10.680
didn't yah done. You don't cover your freaking license plate

152
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.240
when you don't intend on doing something like that. So

153
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:19.000
authorities obviously asking anybody who took pictures of that park

154
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.839
that day to review them see if they sing anything.

155
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:25.519
The park's website said all the trails in the park

156
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:30.079
are closed until further notice for obvious reasons. And the

157
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:34.360
police did release a sketch and a picture of the

158
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:36.639
suspect that I just talked about, and I'm going to

159
00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:39.200
put that on the Facebook page, So if you want

160
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.919
to see that, you're more than welcome to check that out.

161
00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:46.720
And uh, Kelly, Yeah, an update on this case just

162
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:51.360
came through. Well, that was perfect through the crime wire.

163
00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:55.919
If you will tell me a suspect has been arrested

164
00:08:56.320 --> 00:08:58.879
in connection with that double homicide.

165
00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:00.000
Hell yeah.

166
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:06.840
James Andrew McGann, twenty eight, a teacher from Sproul, Arkansas,

167
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.519
was arrested last night and charged with two counts of

168
00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:15.279
capital murder in the killing of that forty three year

169
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:19.399
old and forty one year old. Arkansas State Police just

170
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:24.840
announced this. McGahn was arrested shortly before five pm local

171
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:30.159
time while getting a haircut in school about thirty miles

172
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:34.360
north of that park. The official seven. McGann had recently

173
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:38.360
moved to the area from Oklahoma and had been hired

174
00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:41.879
to work at a local school and when at what

175
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:47.039
was in janetor a teacher really was a teacher and

176
00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:51.200
asked about a motive. Investigators decline to comment, saying the

177
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:53.960
case is still active and it would be premature to

178
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:58.120
do so. And incidentally, I didn't mention this earlier, but

179
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:01.799
the children in this case were not harmed, thank god.

180
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:05.679
The nine and seven year old were not killed, sadly

181
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:08.519
the parents were, but it could have been, I guess,

182
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:12.480
much worse. But thank god they have they have caught

183
00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:13.080
someone for this.

184
00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:15.919
Just look, I just I just looked up the picture too,

185
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:17.919
since you said that this mugshot.

186
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.960
Look y'all, you gotta put this look. I'm gonna shake

187
00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:26.960
through the screen. This dude looks scary. Seriously, he looks disheveled.

188
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:31.159
Yeah, he's a teacher. I mean, he's a you know,

189
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:34.799
perfect not You wouldn't pick you wouldn't picture a teacher

190
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:37.200
to do something like this, Kelly, you were a teacher

191
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:39.440
killed two people on the state park.

192
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:40.600
Hell no.

193
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.840
So obviously this guy was going through something that uh,

194
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:46.200
I guess it's called.

195
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:46.679
Going through evil.

196
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.080
But the good news I guess too, if you're looking

197
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.120
at this from an investigative standpoint, was that even though

198
00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.279
he covered the license plate, that in and of itself

199
00:10:53.320 --> 00:10:55.000
makes him stand out. So if they're going to go

200
00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:59.159
to the interstates and and and look and see possible cameras,

201
00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:01.200
he's gonna's going to stick out like a sore thumb.

202
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:03.360
He's the only guy with a with a covered license plate.

203
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:07.600
So I'm assuming that probably was part of his downfall

204
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:09.320
was that what he thought would would keep him. I

205
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:10.720
would have changed a license plate.

206
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:13.360
I would have imagined once he got out of the

207
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:15.080
state park he pulled the tape off.

208
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:18.559
You think I'd be curious to know because he Well,

209
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:20.919
but if this was his first time kill, everyone always

210
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:22.919
thinks these killers think that they're going to do this,

211
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:24.759
slam him, thank you man, And it never goes quite

212
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:27.120
like they expected to. In that rush, and that overwhelming

213
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.360
of the kill people make mistakes like a coburger.

214
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:32.159
I mean, he dropped the whole damn sheath.

215
00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:35.279
Yeah. Well, and in this case, I'm sure he didn't

216
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.759
plan on someone taking a picture of his whole backside.

217
00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:39.279
Uh huh.

218
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:42.039
Somebody recognized that and probably turned him in. I would,

219
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:42.879
I would imagine.

220
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:48.399
And you're just doing something so so just wholesome. You're

221
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:53.559
hiking with your kids, and out of nowhere, some assailant

222
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:55.600
just decided decides to kill you, like.

223
00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:01.799
Precisely the reason I don't go anywhere without packing. Yeah, hiking,

224
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:05.759
it don't matter when I look fifteen years ago, when

225
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:07.639
I was going to Disney World my kids, I was

226
00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.159
packing because you could break down on the interstate. Yeah,

227
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.600
and you have to walk to a das station. You

228
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.360
think I'm going to do that without some sort of

229
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:17.960
defense against an attack.

230
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:20.240
I'm telling you, but this is like where you would think,

231
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.279
you know, you lower your guard. You're out in the

232
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:24.919
middle of nature. You're just on a hike with your children.

233
00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:28.679
And the biggest I know, I'm just saying that, but

234
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.879
in their minds, the biggest fear you have is that

235
00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:33.039
maybe a bear or something might come out.

236
00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:35.120
Of the That's right.

237
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:38.559
I mean, you don't expect it the predator to be

238
00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:41.759
another human. And I know I don't know, but I

239
00:12:42.039 --> 00:12:44.480
feel in my soul that they fought. Those parents fought

240
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.320
to make sure that their kids were okay. And I'd

241
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:48.879
be curious to know what the kids did. Did they

242
00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:51.480
run and hide? Did they just run away?

243
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:52.519
You know?

244
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:53.000
How did this?

245
00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:54.519
And the kids are going to have a lot of answers,

246
00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:57.840
I think whenever they talked to these babies and find out.

247
00:12:57.879 --> 00:13:00.000
But Godly man, to be there when your parents are killed,

248
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:03.240
is that's a lot goodness gracious.

249
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:05.600
Well, let's go now to Florida, where I am on

250
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.600
location reporting directly to you the listeners, where four adults

251
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.080
are accused of holding nine children captive inside their Florida home,

252
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:17.879
locking them in cages, and spraying them with vinegar as punishment.

253
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:20.919
Husband and wife Brian and Jill Griffith, as well as

254
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.159
twenty one year old Dallen and nineteen year old Liberty Griffith,

255
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:28.360
were arrested and charged with aggravated child abuse in Columbia County, Florida.

256
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:31.519
The four adults are accused of locking the children inside

257
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.519
cages in their bedrooms, giving them non prescribed medication, and

258
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:39.120
not providing them adequate schooling, all while instructing them to

259
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:42.279
lie about what happens in their home. The children were

260
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.919
also forced to lie on the floor by their mother, Jill,

261
00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.080
and having her place a sheet of plywood on top

262
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:51.000
of the child's body and pressing down on them, which

263
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:52.840
resulted in splinters and pain.

264
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:54.960
When punishing the children.

265
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:58.440
Five of whom are the biological children of the couple,

266
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:02.360
but four were adopted, the adults would spray them in

267
00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:03.559
the face with a vinegar.

268
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:06.200
An investigation into the child of use happening to the

269
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:10.759
nine children, aged between seven and sixteen, stemmed from concerns

270
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.919
from a mandatory reporter at their local church. And this

271
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.399
is so important to be that these mandatory reporters we

272
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:19.639
listened to, and this case is so such a great

273
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:22.759
example of why, because in the days before their arrests,

274
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.679
one of the children was caught at the church camp

275
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:30.039
with a functioning electric stun gun. Additional concerns were raised

276
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.159
about the adopted children being treated unfairly compared to the

277
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:38.039
Griffith biological children. In addition to this, the children, some

278
00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:40.360
of them, did not know their full name or their

279
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:43.000
own birthdays. According to the Sheriff's office.

280
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.960
When authorities went to the home, they saw the adoptive

281
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:49.480
children working on chores while the biological children were playing

282
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:52.960
and watching television. Authorities then discovered the couple shared a

283
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:56.039
tenth foster child who was not present, but with their

284
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:59.840
biological parent in Arizona. A well being check concluded that

285
00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:04.159
the that child was safe and healthy. When authorities began investigating,

286
00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:08.480
the adopted children made additional accusations against the adults, including

287
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:11.120
that they were being beaten by a cane and locked

288
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:14.879
in their bedrooms by Brian and other adults. All nine

289
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:17.000
of the children have been court ordered to be removed

290
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.759
from the home, and all four were arrested and are

291
00:15:19.799 --> 00:15:22.879
being held in the Columbia County Detention Facility on five

292
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.799
hundred thousand dollars bond.

293
00:15:25.960 --> 00:15:28.759
Wow and yeah, wow, yeah.

294
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:34.279
That's really horrible. And you may think, what's the deal

295
00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:36.519
with vinegar? What would that do to you? Well, I

296
00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:40.039
looked that up and it can cause a lot of problems.

297
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:44.279
You can actually get a corningal injury from being sprayed

298
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:45.559
in the eyes with vinegar.

299
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:48.080
I'm sure the acidity is of things.

300
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:53.320
Like hell according to chat GBT, yes, and it also

301
00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:57.240
causes some pretty major blurred vision. It's no joke. And

302
00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:01.240
when you're a child, it can roll affect you in heart.

303
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:03.879
It's like having razor blades in your eyes.

304
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:04.320
Yeah.

305
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.879
Well, and anybody's curious, go spray yourself in the eyes

306
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:08.360
of vinegar.

307
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:10.279
It ain't no fun, No, absolutely not.

308
00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:13.919
And don't really do that. We're kidding. Yeah, that's a joke,

309
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:17.600
choice saying eat te pods. We're joking here, Yeah.

310
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:21.360
Yeah, don't do that. Yeah.

311
00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:23.399
But so you think about the fact that they had

312
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:26.080
the custody of a total of ten children, and I

313
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:28.720
know that I always go negative with my thinking.

314
00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:30.159
That's just kind of how I'm wired here.

315
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:32.320
But I'm wondering if this was a cash grab by

316
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:35.240
the state because they had their own kids, and they realized,

317
00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:37.399
once we bring all these kids into our household, and

318
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:39.919
we're gonna start getting you know, assistance for these foster

319
00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:44.120
kids or start getting funding, And I'm yeah, and then

320
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:47.320
you're gonna take these these kids that aren't yours, that

321
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:50.559
you're being trusted with to be the cared sound advice

322
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:53.159
for them while their families are going through whatever, you know,

323
00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:56.200
loss of custody, and then you treat them this way.

324
00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:59.360
How crazy The one of the children the only one

325
00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:01.399
that's not in the whole and visiting their family, their

326
00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:04.759
actual family is safe and accounted for and healthy.

327
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:08.160
Yeah, And I think it's you nailed right on the head.

328
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.039
I think it's obviously a cash grad because they weren't

329
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:13.519
doing this out of the goodness of their heart. They

330
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:17.200
they were torturing these kids, you know. They that's about

331
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:20.480
as fucking low as you can go. Yes, So they

332
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:23.400
were torturing them. The only reason they had these kids

333
00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:26.759
was for the fact that you get paid the foster children, which,

334
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:29.160
when your heart's in the right place, you should. You're

335
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:34.079
taking on your financial responsibility and you want to encourage

336
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:37.599
good people to do something like that. But I think

337
00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:39.680
in this case, it's just a parent. They didn't give

338
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:42.160
a shit about these kids. They wanted that money.

339
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.440
Yeah, and then to be forcing them to take medicine

340
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:46.559
that's not even theirs.

341
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:48.920
I mean, this is diabolic. This is on a lot.

342
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:53.200
This is like almost like you know, well, I don't

343
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:54.640
even know if I should say this, but you know,

344
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:56.640
when they did the testing on the kids and Auschwitz

345
00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:58.079
and all of that, and just to see what would

346
00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:00.680
happen to them, you're just like force feeding these kids

347
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.279
medicine that's not theirs and then locking them up and

348
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.640
pressing them under it. It's like old school medieval torture

349
00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:13.279
and when you would press people under rocks or plywood

350
00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:13.880
like this is.

351
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:16.480
This is more than just not letting the kids have

352
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:17.519
their freedom, you know.

353
00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:19.440
Like maybe they wouldn't let them go out and about

354
00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:20.440
and didn't feel like taking.

355
00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:22.799
Them to school, like they weren't even teaching them anything.

356
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:25.359
They didn't know their own name. The youngest kid had

357
00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:26.240
said was what seven.

358
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.400
Yeah, I mean, really think about the level of the

359
00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:33.880
of just nothing that was happening with these kids in

360
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:35.400
their lives, and then.

361
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:37.920
The psychological impact this will have.

362
00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:41.160
My own family didn't have me and then I'm given

363
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:42.640
to people who supposed to take care of me.

364
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:43.880
They don't take care of me.

365
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:46.400
We're going to go to slide do All in Louisiana,

366
00:18:46.759 --> 00:18:49.759
which is about an hour from where I'm recording anyway,

367
00:18:50.119 --> 00:18:52.640
it's ten hours from where Caju, much.

368
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:54.559
Further away from this blue water I'm looking at.

369
00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:57.079
Yeah, yeah, well we're going to go to slide l

370
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:00.480
and a slide ol woman was arrested and booked into

371
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:04.640
the East Battery s Parish prison after she allegedly bought

372
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:11.680
a Lamborghini and plastic surgery while receiving fraudulent medicaid benefits.

373
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:14.039
Tell me this bitch gotta bbl, Jim, tell.

374
00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:16.440
Me, I don't know what a BBL is.

375
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:19.119
It's a Brazilian butt lift. If you're getting a lambou Bro,

376
00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:21.319
you're getting a fucking butt lift. Don't cut that out,

377
00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:22.000
don't you do it?

378
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:28.480
Attorney General Les Murrill's office said this on Tuesday. Candace Taylor,

379
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:32.880
thirty five, is accused of underreporting her income to receive

380
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:38.000
medicaid benefits. The AG's office said Taylor was denied medicaid

381
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:40.839
in May of twenty nineteen after she applied under the

382
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:46.279
alias Candace sailor and reported her income as nineteen hundred

383
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:51.480
dollars bi weekly with no dependence. She then reapplied and

384
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:55.480
was approved in March of twenty twenty under the same misnomer,

385
00:19:55.960 --> 00:20:00.480
claiming no income. This time she was also inconsi in

386
00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:04.519
the years in which she claimed dependence. Quote. You don't

387
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:07.359
often see this level of abuse in the system. Someone

388
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:11.039
who would lie over and over again about her eligibility

389
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:14.880
and then go out and buy a Lamborghini in plastic surgery,

390
00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:20.559
that's pretty fragrant, flagrant fraud, ag Lyz Muriel said. According

391
00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:25.079
to the AG's office, arrest documents reported that Taylor made

392
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:31.559
over nine point five million dollars in multiple businesses between

393
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:35.359
January of twenty twenty in December of twenty twenty four.

394
00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:39.480
The AG office said in that timeframe that Taylor recorded

395
00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:44.079
multiple deposits over four hundred and maybe thousand dollars into

396
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:48.319
her bank account, made more than forty five thousand dollars

397
00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:53.200
in vehicle payments to OUDI Finance, made multiple six figure

398
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:58.119
with draws via cashier's check to fund property purchases, bought

399
00:20:58.160 --> 00:21:03.519
plastic surgery, hyattey and luxury services, and bought a twenty

400
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:07.200
twenty two Lamborghini Your Rice for more than one hundred

401
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:12.160
and thirteen thousand dollars. Taylor allegedly tried to renew her

402
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:16.079
tried to renew those Medicaid benefits in twenty twenty four,

403
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:20.519
just two months after buying the Lamborghini and claiming a

404
00:21:20.599 --> 00:21:24.200
monthly income of only two thousand dollars on her application.

405
00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:27.880
But she did find out she did leave out rather

406
00:21:28.039 --> 00:21:31.240
that she was a business owner on that application. Quote.

407
00:21:31.559 --> 00:21:34.319
We spend a lot of money on these programs, and

408
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:37.880
they're supposed to be helping people who cannot afford medical

409
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.799
care on their own. This is someone who was clearly

410
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:44.799
making a lot of money and could afford to obtain insurance.

411
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:49.000
Agents reportedly saw multiple and this is where they're getting

412
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:53.000
them these days. I love this. Multiple social media posts

413
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:57.720
of Taylor showing off her luxurious lifestyle, including that lamp bow.

414
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:01.960
AG Muriel said, I know you cannot buy a Lambeau

415
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:07.960
in plastic surgery while we're steven Medicaid benefit. At an investigation,

416
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:11.640
the AG's office arrested Taylor and slide Down on Monday

417
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:15.240
booked her into the ebr Parish Prison, which is no fun.

418
00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:17.960
That place is kind of like a shithole in these

419
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:24.519
days for these government benefit frauds, and good for her.

420
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:28.680
Did you see her mugshot, Jill, Did you see her mugshot?

421
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:30.400
She's smirking.

422
00:22:31.319 --> 00:22:34.759
Yeah, she is straight up smirking in her mugshot photo.

423
00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:37.559
Like this ought to piss you off, because you know,

424
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:38.880
I'm thinking about we.

425
00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:41.519
All pay so much in taxes.

426
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:46.799
Yeah, yeah, and I'm paying thousands of dollars a month

427
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:50.119
just for insurance in case shit happens in my household,

428
00:22:50.160 --> 00:22:51.799
you know, in case you break a leg or whatever.

429
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:53.880
And I remember recently and this is just my.

430
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:56.559
Gripe, okay, personal gripe, because we were doing it last week.

431
00:22:56.640 --> 00:22:58.799
My husband and I were sitting down. We're looking at

432
00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:03.480
all the different plan off and we're basically playing gamble

433
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:06.079
with who's gonna get hurt and how, you know, in

434
00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:08.720
our house, to determine what type of premiums we're gonna pay,

435
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:10.359
and do we think we're gonna go to the hospital

436
00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:12.759
more or possibly just to save twenty dollars here or

437
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:15.519
thirty dollars there, because that's America, you know, where everyone

438
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:17.640
you want to save the most that you can, but

439
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:19.119
get the best coverage for your family.

440
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:21.440
And then this bitch is down here by a fucking lambo.

441
00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:28.599
Yeah good looking. Yeah, it's shocking. I've never seen anything

442
00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:32.160
like this. I mean, this is about as disgusting as

443
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:36.200
you can get. This happens on smaller scales. Look, there's

444
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:39.400
some people out there. Maybe they lie a little bit

445
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:44.160
and that's never good on their medicaid applications, but I'm

446
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.200
quite sure that they're not depositing multiple half million dollars

447
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:51.440
deposit into their bank account. You just people that are

448
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:56.559
this fortunate. I don't personally come across as often where

449
00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:59.279
they're cheating the system. So I hope they throw the

450
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:00.960
freaking book at this shick.

451
00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:06.480
Yeah, and her shirt she's wearing this is a nothing.

452
00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:08.559
It says basic on it in her mugshot. But you

453
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:09.160
are basic.

454
00:24:09.240 --> 00:24:12.920
If you thought for one second that you could you

455
00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:15.799
have millions of dollars, and you were so selfish that

456
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.400
you won't even pay the premium for your own You

457
00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:21.279
won't even pay your own medical bills. You're that selfish.

458
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:24.960
You had dumb bitch, Candace. Just if anyone knows, or

459
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:25.799
you can let her know, I.

460
00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:30.359
Said that, and look, this is this is uh, you know,

461
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:34.480
it's comical, it's funny, but it is something where Seriously, man,

462
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:38.839
this is why, this is why insurance rates are so high.

463
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:44.000
This is why people who really need these benefits get scrutinized. Uh,

464
00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:49.880
sometimes unfairly scrutinized because you got morons like this. It

465
00:24:50.079 --> 00:24:51.519
just lights me up.

466
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:57.279
Yeah, and it grinds your gears grind. I'm pretty sure

467
00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:58.759
is this her Facebook?

468
00:24:58.799 --> 00:25:01.279
I just found I just this on a whim here,

469
00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:03.319
But if it is, it says I'm not one in

470
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:04.920
a million, I'm once in a lifetime.

471
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:07.559
Yeah you're yeah, Yeah, I guess you are, because nobody's

472
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:07.960
that dumb.

473
00:25:08.039 --> 00:25:09.920
If this is really you can't Yeah, you're the only

474
00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:12.039
one to try to pull that ship off and then

475
00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:13.599
post pictures of your lamp bow.

476
00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:16.960
Maybe maybe this too, is a prime example of of

477
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:20.279
what's going on in our culture, that it's all about

478
00:25:20.279 --> 00:25:22.759
what you can show off to people and what you

479
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:24.599
have on the outside and not what's on the inside.

480
00:25:24.640 --> 00:25:30.079
Because the most generous kind people I've ever met in

481
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:34.160
my life have been the most unfinancially fortunate people.

482
00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:35.559
I mean that with all of my heart.

483
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:38.440
Just people, that's true. But I'm not gonna thirst shade it.

484
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:40.720
Someone who buys a lamb bow. I'm not gonna thurstad

485
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:43.200
as someone who has earned a good living and buy

486
00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:46.240
that vehicle. That doesn't mean they necessarily want to show off,

487
00:25:46.359 --> 00:25:47.240
but no.

488
00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:49.000
But when I'm when you're not paying your bent, when

489
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:51.559
you're wanting medicaid in combination with it, I.

490
00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:56.680
Think that's where the separation becomes. Yeah, when you're robbing

491
00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:58.359
the system.

492
00:25:58.000 --> 00:25:59.440
And we are the system.

493
00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:02.000
And that's what people miss sometimes, like young people just

494
00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:04.279
from teaching, they'd say, yeah, well, I mean that's not

495
00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:07.440
you know, that's tax dollars. That's not coming straight from me.

496
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:10.480
I'm like, you better go research where tax dollars come from.

497
00:26:10.480 --> 00:26:12.319
Because you were the one robbed from here. You were

498
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:15.200
the one that was taken advantage of insurance, especially in

499
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:16.200
Louisiana too. Man.

500
00:26:16.519 --> 00:26:20.240
Everything we've got is through the roof, is in cost.

501
00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:23.240
Oh it's nuts. And when you have a big family,

502
00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:26.720
I have a big family, five five person family, Yeah,

503
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:29.400
I pay five insurances, car insurances.

504
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:29.880
Yeah.

505
00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:33.200
It shocked people to know just what my car insurance is.

506
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:35.319
Well, and you have young young ones driving. I have

507
00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:38.200
young ones driving too're.

508
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:41.759
All under twenty five. And people might say, well, they

509
00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:44.519
paying their own cars. Well, they're in college, and daddy

510
00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:45.200
takes care of.

511
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:46.680
That because you're the daddy and that's why.

512
00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:49.480
Yeah, hey, look at us taking care of our kids

513
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:51.240
while we've got people all across the world that are

514
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:54.480
just doing crazy just so far and I don't know,

515
00:26:54.680 --> 00:26:55.319
the norm is.

516
00:26:55.240 --> 00:26:56.400
Not the norm anymore or whatever.

517
00:26:56.440 --> 00:26:56.720
I know.

518
00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:00.039
All right, well, look, let's talk about a family that

519
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:02.359
was not having a good time. We're gonna go actually

520
00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:02.799
stay in.

521
00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:05.880
Florida again on location and I am but a sixty

522
00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:09.079
nine year old Florida man allegedly murdered his wife's lover

523
00:27:09.559 --> 00:27:12.240
after an argument and a flea market parking lot led

524
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:16.960
to a fatal shooting. Omar Renee Aguilla or Aguala, stands

525
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:19.680
accused of second degree murder in the shooting that occurred

526
00:27:19.720 --> 00:27:23.160
on July twelfth at the North Side Shopping Center in Miami.

527
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:26.559
Aguiala's wife and the victim started having an affair in

528
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:29.599
twenty nineteen. He learned of the romance in April of

529
00:27:29.599 --> 00:27:32.279
twenty twenty four and urged her to end the affair,

530
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:35.559
But two days before the shooting, the victim reportedly showed

531
00:27:35.640 --> 00:27:38.599
up to Aguila's and his wife's home. The victim and

532
00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:41.519
the suspect had a confrontation when that happened. On the

533
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:44.240
day of the shooting, Aguila was with his wife and

534
00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:46.680
his son at a flea market when the victim dropped

535
00:27:46.680 --> 00:27:49.160
off food to a friend. The victim tried to talk

536
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:52.279
to Aguila's wife before leaving, and according to the complaint,

537
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:55.599
Aguila went to the victim's car, where the two started arguing.

538
00:27:55.799 --> 00:27:58.839
Within seconds, Aguala reportedly pulled out a gun and shot

539
00:27:58.880 --> 00:28:01.880
the man several times, and surveillance video captured the.

540
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:03.759
Entire shooting as it went down.

541
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.599
Paramedics rushed the victim to the hospital, where doctors pronounced

542
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:11.519
him dead. Initially, though, cops let Agala go following the

543
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:14.200
shooting because he claimed self defense and said that the

544
00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:17.200
victim had a gun in his car, but detectives allegedly

545
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:21.359
determined the victim was never armed afterwards, so Agala also

546
00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:24.359
is a convicted felon and is prohibited from having a gun,

547
00:28:24.440 --> 00:28:27.440
so in addition to murder, he's also facing a felon

548
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:31.000
in possession of a firearm charge. Agala was arrested and

549
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:34.759
remains at the Turner Guildford Knight Correctional Center without bond.

550
00:28:35.279 --> 00:28:38.319
Man He's sixty nine year olds be wild and all right,

551
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:43.559
So I look it used to be when when you're

552
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:47.039
sixty nine years old, I mean, sex is the last

553
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:50.119
thing you're having, right yeah. And now with the I guess,

554
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:54.079
with the biagra and the costerone and the TRT replacements,

555
00:28:54.079 --> 00:28:56.640
he's sixty nine year olds are getting it. I don't

556
00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:59.400
know how old how old his wife was, but if

557
00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:01.839
she was near his age, she got a six year

558
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:05.599
fair going on with some duty name freaking.

559
00:29:05.599 --> 00:29:08.000
All right, So in Florida, let me ask you this

560
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:10.559
real quick. Then the victim, and I'm not saying you

561
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:12.480
deserve to be murdered. I'm not saying that no one

562
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:13.400
deserves it, right.

563
00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:15.440
That's right. I'm not making fun of that.

564
00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:16.279
No, absolutely not.

565
00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:19.200
But I kind of almost feel like the husband might

566
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:20.680
have a little bit of a gripe here that I

567
00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:21.799
might would go, well.

568
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:24.680
I mean, the guy showed up to Not saying justified

569
00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:25.200
a shooting.

570
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:28.240
I'm saying like it was flagrant and in his face,

571
00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:30.079
and maybe the heat of the moment got to him

572
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:32.839
that day, because this guy went to his home just

573
00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:35.119
a few days went to his house straight up having

574
00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:37.519
an affair with his wife, and went to his house.

575
00:29:38.400 --> 00:29:41.880
I mean, you better not play around with people.

576
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:42.880
Don't kill a guy.

577
00:29:42.920 --> 00:29:45.359
I know, I know totally, but.

578
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:47.720
Good old fashioned fast whooping.

579
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:50.319
Yeah, you know, just I'm not I'm definitely not.

580
00:29:50.759 --> 00:29:52.599
I'm not saying anyone should be shot, no one should

581
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:54.640
be murdered, but you don't play around with people in

582
00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:55.839
their in their marriages.

583
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:01.000
And well, that's right. I mean you expect, uh, you

584
00:30:01.440 --> 00:30:04.079
better expect some sort of recourse. It may not be

585
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:07.680
I'm gonna get killed, but at a bare minium, you

586
00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:10.160
better expect you're gonna have to throw hands with whoever

587
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:12.880
that dude's wife is at some point in time, because

588
00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:15.440
it always gets everything in dark comes to white.

589
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:16.319
Yeah.

590
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:19.400
Yeah, well, and then to know that, you know, they

591
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:21.200
got already got in a fight a few days before.

592
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:23.839
Then they show up at this flea market, and then

593
00:30:24.039 --> 00:30:26.079
the victim goes up and tries to talk to his

594
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:29.319
wife after they've already had a kind of confrontation about this.

595
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:32.880
I just kind of I don't know this is gonna

596
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:34.519
play out. I don't think there'll be a first agree murder.

597
00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:36.119
It's gonna be a second degree murder that they're gonna

598
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:39.559
they're gonna charge him with. But possibly I mean, I don't.

599
00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:42.160
I think they did charge him with second agree murder.

600
00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:45.480
Well yeah, but I'm saying it fits here because I mean,

601
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.240
this guy was a little did have some culpability I

602
00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:50.440
think in the in the argument and what kind of

603
00:30:50.599 --> 00:30:51.440
was going down here.

604
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:52.200
But we'll see.

605
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.400
And personally, I think that if you're a good defense attorney,

606
00:30:56.400 --> 00:31:00.559
you're gonna argue for manslaughter on this because it's going

607
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.880
to be a heat of the moment thing. Yeah, I

608
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:05.440
didn't intend to kill him. He set me off and

609
00:31:05.519 --> 00:31:08.720
I was temporarily insane. I did. There's no proof of

610
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:11.200
planning here. He didn't hunt him down.

611
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:13.480
Unless there's like text messages that says if I see

612
00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:14.480
you again, I'm gonna kill you.

613
00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:16.799
Then they you know, that's where the state of tedious.

614
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.039
This is where it's gonna get tedious in court.

615
00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.079
Be interesting, and we'll keep you hosted for sure.

616
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:24.480
But one more thing, though, this guy's already a felon

617
00:31:25.119 --> 00:31:26.160
and he's got a firearm.

618
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:28.160
He's willing to break the law. He's now proven that.

619
00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:30.799
So I'm not saying I'm not saying he's a good

620
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:32.519
guy or a victim either. I'm just saying this one

621
00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:34.279
will be interesting. To see kind of how it plays out.

622
00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:41.119
Absolutely, and look, we're gonna stay in Florida. God, well,

623
00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:43.960
I did that on purpose. I did that on purpose.

624
00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:47.960
Faumid the Florida stories because I knew where you was. H.

625
00:31:48.559 --> 00:31:54.519
I don't know if you're close to Lee County, but yeah,

626
00:31:55.079 --> 00:31:59.519
you're at the beach. So floridaman is behind bars after

627
00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:02.920
police says he tied up his friend, held him at home,

628
00:32:03.079 --> 00:32:07.559
and robbed his bank account. In a Facebook post, the

629
00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:11.839
Lee County Sheriff's Office announced the arrest of Nicholas Flores,

630
00:32:11.880 --> 00:32:16.200
who was thirty two, charged him with robbery, kidnapping, possession

631
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:20.599
of a controlled substance as well. According to police, Flores

632
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:24.720
met with a friend of his to discuss the latterman

633
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:29.880
buying a PlayStation five. The friend, who was not named

634
00:32:29.920 --> 00:32:33.759
by police, went to Flora's home, and while he was there,

635
00:32:33.880 --> 00:32:40.880
Flores allegedly retrieved a machete. Yeah, anytime anybody friend or

636
00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:44.920
foe retrees a machete, you might want to start backing

637
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:45.799
off and lead.

638
00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:47.359
Yeah, yeah, that's kind of a flag.

639
00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:51.759
And so he retrieves that machete and he chokes the

640
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:56.680
other man until he's unconscious. So when the friend wakes up.

641
00:32:57.000 --> 00:33:01.079
His wrist and legs were allegedly tied with zip tizes

642
00:33:01.279 --> 00:33:04.839
and duct tate. Flores had left his friend while he

643
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:09.319
made several bank transactions, taking money from his friend's account

644
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:11.680
and putting it in his own. I have no idea

645
00:33:11.720 --> 00:33:14.039
how he knew a pen number or anything. Doesn't say that,

646
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:15.000
but I'm sure.

647
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:17.000
He made him get it once he taped him up.

648
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:23.839
Yeah. Police said that Flores allegedly kept his friend at

649
00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:27.279
home at the home for hours. The friend was finally

650
00:33:27.359 --> 00:33:31.000
able to escape the following morning while Flores was asleep.

651
00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:34.240
The frid was brought to the hospital treated for non

652
00:33:34.359 --> 00:33:38.559
life threatening injuries, and when police executed a search warrant

653
00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:42.559
at Flora's home, they found the same materials allegedly used

654
00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:47.200
to restrain his friend, as well as some yayo or

655
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:54.279
cocaine aga the ya yo and meth amphetamine. Flores was

656
00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:57.440
arrested at his home. He was booked on charges of robbery,

657
00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:00.519
kidnapping in possession, which I told you, and he's being

658
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:03.559
held without bond. Scheduled to be a raignment court on

659
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:08.400
August eleventh. All set up over a PlayStation file.

660
00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:12.239
Yeah, and they better not They better not let this

661
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:16.400
sucker plea down something, because if you'll turn a friend

662
00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:18.360
like that, if you'll do that to the people you're

663
00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:20.000
supposed to be friends with, then what the hell will

664
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:22.360
you do to the rest of us that that I mean,

665
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:26.480
that's predator pray pray activities there. And then you're going

666
00:34:26.519 --> 00:34:30.559
to bring along duct tape, tape this dude up and

667
00:34:30.679 --> 00:34:32.000
not like.

668
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:36.719
And then to think that you could go home and

669
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:40.039
go to bed. You got a home man taped up.

670
00:34:41.159 --> 00:34:42.599
Oh my goodness.

671
00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:48.079
You know yesterday, I'm I was walking outside and there

672
00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:51.320
was a caterpillar on my daughter's bag that was right

673
00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:53.239
here by the door. And I stopped and I turned

674
00:34:53.239 --> 00:34:55.159
around and I got the little caterpillar and I walked

675
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:57.559
outside and I released him on a plant. That's how

676
00:34:57.599 --> 00:34:59.440
much I think of the damn caterpillar is that I

677
00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:01.719
didn't want him get locked up and left inside where

678
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:04.039
he would die. And then we've got people out here

679
00:35:05.039 --> 00:35:09.280
freaking robbing people over PlayStations and taping them up.

680
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:10.800
We're a damn PlayStation.

681
00:35:11.119 --> 00:35:13.480
Okay, Well, I ain't doing that with no caterpillar.

682
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:17.559
I did killer, I did it. I ain't no no

683
00:35:17.679 --> 00:35:20.920
caterpillar killer. I ain't no caterpillar killer. Not in these

684
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:23.360
not in this house. Look, so she got all the

685
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:25.559
damn drama in Florida and you're trying to freak me out.

686
00:35:25.559 --> 00:35:28.760
You know, my mom freaked my kids out because when

687
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:30.599
she when we're coming to Florida, she started sending them

688
00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:33.519
articles about the shark attacks and videos from Shark Week

689
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:35.639
and shit, I'm like, Mom, could be not She said,

690
00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:37.960
I just need them to know. I said, I'm with them.

691
00:35:38.199 --> 00:35:39.960
You don't have to freak them out. That's what you're doing.

692
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:43.119
That's what you're doing with mirror right now. Well, let's

693
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:46.119
go to your neck of the woods then, okay, because

694
00:35:46.400 --> 00:35:48.559
do you remember the ten in mates that of course

695
00:35:48.559 --> 00:35:51.480

696
00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:54.639
Of the New Orleans jail. Well, now, y'all, someone's got to.

697
00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:57.679
Get a grip in New Orleans and inmate now was

that was the scene of that brazen breakout that was

700
00:36:04.400 --> 00:36:07.840
in May. Officials at an Orleans Parish Correctional facility said

701
00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:11.760

702
00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:14.880
being held on a warrant for aggravated assault with the firearm,

703
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:19.840
domestic abuse, child endangerment, and home invasion. He also has

704
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:24.000
a criminal history that includes burglary, assault, and drug violations.

705
00:36:24.320 --> 00:36:26.360

00:36:26.360 --> 00:36:26.719
