All right, folks, welcome back. This week on CrimeWire Weekly,

2
00:00:20.300 --> 00:00:23.800
we are talking about a therapist who was booked after

3
00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:30.289
allegedly sleeping with a rehab patient in Massachusetts. The Lindsay

4
00:00:30.390 --> 00:00:35.429
Clancy murder trial collapses into a mistrial after the jury

5
00:00:35.670 --> 00:00:39.969
deadlocks on whether she was criminally responsible for killing her

6
00:00:40.070 --> 00:00:44.259
three children. And in a brand new segment, We're going

7
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:46.929
to call any given Saturday. We're going to give you

8
00:00:46.969 --> 00:00:50.320
the latest in what occurred during week one of college

9
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:55.450
football today. as it relates to the crime. In West Virginia,

10
00:00:55.530 --> 00:00:59.149
a high school principal is charged after a recording pen

11
00:00:59.250 --> 00:01:03.909
turns up in a girl's locker room. In Illinois, prosecutors

12
00:01:03.969 --> 00:01:07.719
say a mother who had been very invested in the

13
00:01:07.780 --> 00:01:12.099
Lindsay Clancy trial texted friends about the case just hours

14
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:17.140
before she murdered her two-year-old son. In Missouri, a foster

15
00:01:17.219 --> 00:01:21.900
mother sent a child to Texas to In exchange, get

16
00:01:21.980 --> 00:01:27.730
this for a monkey. She is arrested and she's in

17
00:01:27.750 --> 00:01:29.530
a lot of trouble. We're going to cover that. In

18
00:01:29.590 --> 00:01:34.989
Pinellas County, Crooked Jess lives up to that nickname after

19
00:01:35.030 --> 00:01:38.650
she takes undercover buy money and vanishes. In Florida, a

20
00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:41.870
man gets taken in an engagement scam that goes from

21
00:01:41.969 --> 00:01:46.109
proposal to nightmare. And on the true crime time machine,

22
00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:49.239
we're going to go back a quarter century since 9-11.

23
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:54.849
Welcome to Crime Wire Weekly. I'm Jim Chapman. And there

24
00:01:54.930 --> 00:02:00.170
is no Kelly Jennings. Kelly is under the weather today. Look,

25
00:02:00.219 --> 00:02:03.400
I'm not going to let you go without your weekly

26
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.560
dose of CrimeWire Weekly. So I'm going to do this

27
00:02:06.739 --> 00:02:10.539
one solo today. I'm going to ride solo. Hopefully I'll

28
00:02:10.620 --> 00:02:13.560
entertain you enough to keep you around. And we're going

29
00:02:13.580 --> 00:02:16.939
to start off in Florida. And we're going to start

30
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:39.030
off with a lustful lawbreaker. Mmm. Mmm. All right, so

31
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:43.800
a Florida therapy intern is accused of running a months-long

32
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:49.729
secret sexual relationship with a client inside a locked-down men's rehab.

33
00:02:50.430 --> 00:02:55.229
including during sessions. She is accused of inventing cover stories

34
00:02:55.349 --> 00:02:58.750
so that this guy could walk out the door and

35
00:02:58.830 --> 00:03:02.490
more encounters could occur at her house, at her mother's house,

36
00:03:02.949 --> 00:03:08.110
and even in a hospital. So Michelle Rabora, who is

37
00:03:08.110 --> 00:03:12.050
32 of Pinecrest, Florida, she was working as an intern

38
00:03:12.210 --> 00:03:15.909
in the capacity of a mental health therapist. This is

39
00:03:16.069 --> 00:03:19.870
at a rehab, a drug rehab facility called New Hope,

40
00:03:20.340 --> 00:03:24.979
This is in Homestead, Florida. The facility is a nonprofit

41
00:03:25.180 --> 00:03:30.750
accredited program that provides residential substance abuse and behavioral health treatment.

42
00:03:30.810 --> 00:03:37.370
It's largely for adult men, including uninsured, underinsured, and homeless clients. Now,

43
00:03:37.490 --> 00:03:41.830
residents live under restrictions, and that's key here. and leaving

44
00:03:41.889 --> 00:03:46.949
the property requires authorization. Now, New Hope describes itself as

45
00:03:47.009 --> 00:03:51.520
the only residential substance abuse treatment facility of its kind

46
00:03:51.580 --> 00:03:56.539
for single men in South Miami-Dade, and that closed setting

47
00:03:56.699 --> 00:04:01.650
is central to these allegations. Investigators say Rabor did not

48
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:06.949
just cross a line professionally, she also helped get the

49
00:04:07.050 --> 00:04:10.550
resident off the property so the two could leave and

50
00:04:10.610 --> 00:04:15.449
meet elsewhere. Now, the victim is a 42-year-old man who

51
00:04:15.490 --> 00:04:18.709
was both a patient and a resident at the facility

52
00:04:18.790 --> 00:04:22.189
and who was assigned to Rebora as her client. According

53
00:04:22.230 --> 00:04:25.569
to the arrest report, he told investigators the two were

54
00:04:25.620 --> 00:04:29.540
involved in a romantic and sexual relationship that started in

55
00:04:29.620 --> 00:04:34.319
June of 2025 and ran through September of 2025, so

56
00:04:34.339 --> 00:04:37.519
about three months, while he was still under her care.

57
00:04:37.579 --> 00:04:41.759
He said they had sex, During therapy sessions at that facility,

58
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:45.870
he also said she facilitated alibis on his behalf, giving

59
00:04:45.910 --> 00:04:48.990
him cover so that staff would authorize him to leave

60
00:04:49.029 --> 00:04:52.420
the restricted campus area for sex with her. And those

61
00:04:52.620 --> 00:04:57.959
off-site encounters, authorities say, happened on multiple occasions. It happened

62
00:04:58.019 --> 00:05:02.319
at her home in Pinecrest. at her mother's home, and

63
00:05:02.620 --> 00:05:07.329
at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. Investigators say she told

64
00:05:07.389 --> 00:05:11.949
him to keep the relationship secret because disclosure could affect

65
00:05:12.009 --> 00:05:15.439
her ability to work as a therapist. Now, important to

66
00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:19.240
note that consent is not a legal defense under Florida's

67
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:24.829
psychotherapist misconduct statute. And the statute covers people who provide

68
00:05:24.980 --> 00:05:29.639
or purport to provide mental health counseling, not only fully

69
00:05:29.899 --> 00:05:34.839
licensed practitioners. And that's important here because she was an intern.

70
00:05:34.899 --> 00:05:37.750
She wasn't fully licensed. And I guess she was going

71
00:05:37.769 --> 00:05:40.790
to try to use that as a defense of her

72
00:05:40.970 --> 00:05:44.449
not breaking the law. An intern acting as a therapist.

73
00:05:44.910 --> 00:05:49.129
can still obviously fall inside that definition. So some later

74
00:05:49.180 --> 00:05:53.000
reports have said authorities also looked at allegations involving a

75
00:05:53.220 --> 00:05:57.540
second client and that she faced more than one related count,

76
00:05:57.620 --> 00:06:00.259
but the most detailed public report that I could find

77
00:06:00.689 --> 00:06:04.970
still centers on that 42-year-old resident and that June to

78
00:06:05.009 --> 00:06:10.610
September 2025 timeline. Now, the relationship did not surface because

79
00:06:11.089 --> 00:06:13.389
staff walked into a room, like you would think, and

80
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:17.490
saw them having sex. It actually surfaced after it ended.

81
00:06:17.790 --> 00:06:21.610
According to the arrest paperwork, Rabora broke things off. And

82
00:06:21.730 --> 00:06:25.370
after that, the 42-year-old client went to the administrators and

83
00:06:25.410 --> 00:06:30.329
reported what he described as a forbidden affair. New Hope

84
00:06:30.470 --> 00:06:34.430
fired her, notified the appropriate agencies, and cooperated with police.

85
00:06:34.470 --> 00:06:36.550
So it sounds like this dude got the red ass

86
00:06:37.110 --> 00:06:40.980
after this girl dumped him. And so what's he do?

87
00:06:41.569 --> 00:06:45.029
He goes to the freaking... you know, people in charge

88
00:06:45.089 --> 00:06:49.089
and says, I've been screwing this girl and she's been

89
00:06:49.189 --> 00:06:51.990
breaking the law by doing it. I mean, come on, dude,

90
00:06:52.009 --> 00:06:55.000
just get over it. Rabora turned herself in this past week.

91
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:58.240
She was booked on Wednesday, this past Wednesday, and she

92
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:01.480
appeared in court and bonded out on a $ 5, 000 bond.

93
00:07:02.139 --> 00:07:05.019
After she bonded out, she declined to discuss the case,

94
00:07:05.100 --> 00:07:07.800
saying the questions should go to her lawyer and that

95
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:11.439
the situation was quote, kind of weird. and that she

96
00:07:11.620 --> 00:07:15.560
did not want to add anything. Now, this is more serious, y'all,

97
00:07:15.610 --> 00:07:19.050
than it may sound. She's getting charged with a second-degree

98
00:07:19.110 --> 00:07:23.470
charge of sexual misconduct by a psychotherapist, which is a

99
00:07:23.589 --> 00:07:27.889
third-degree felony in Florida, and it carries up to five

100
00:07:27.910 --> 00:07:32.129
years in jail. So, pretty serious situation. Now... All of

101
00:07:32.189 --> 00:07:35.949
this was consensual, but if you've heard me on my

102
00:07:36.009 --> 00:07:40.139
podcast exposed, especially when I cover those bad teachers, even

103
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:43.800
if a student is 18 years old and he's fully

104
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:47.459
down with having sex with this teacher and the consent

105
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:51.949
age in whatever state I'm covering is 18, guess what?

106
00:07:52.189 --> 00:07:56.149
Still against the law. Same situation here. This is someone

107
00:07:56.649 --> 00:08:00.350
considered a person in authority and that could take advantage

108
00:08:00.470 --> 00:08:05.189
of a person, especially in a rehab type situation, sexually.

109
00:08:05.529 --> 00:08:08.569
And so you can't do that. It is against the

110
00:08:08.610 --> 00:08:10.610
law and you can get five years in jail. So

111
00:08:10.629 --> 00:08:15.370
we'll see what happens there. But pretty wild case going

112
00:08:15.529 --> 00:08:19.759
on and definitely a lustful lawbreaker in Florida. All right.

113
00:08:19.779 --> 00:08:21.639
So now we're going to go to the story that

114
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.959
has made all the news this week. Y'all, when I

115
00:08:23.980 --> 00:08:27.740
was researching articles and subjects to cover for this week,

116
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:33.299
I probably came across, I don't know, a thousand articles

117
00:08:33.580 --> 00:08:37.879
in one way or another related to the Lindsay Clancy trial.

118
00:08:38.409 --> 00:08:42.450
Of course, big news, a mistrial has been declared. We're

119
00:08:42.470 --> 00:08:46.789
going to talk about that. So Judge William Sullivan declared

120
00:08:46.830 --> 00:08:50.990
a mistrial this past Friday in the Lindsay Clancy murder

121
00:08:51.029 --> 00:08:53.889
case after jurors said they were unable to reach a

122
00:08:54.049 --> 00:08:57.289
unanimous verdict in the killing of her three children. This

123
00:08:57.370 --> 00:09:01.870
is after a week of deliberating at the Pliesmouth Superior

124
00:09:01.929 --> 00:09:06.909
Court in Pliesmouth, Massachusetts. Now, the mistrial followed a dramatic

125
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:11.759
dispute over an alleged 11 to 1 divide, with Clancy's

126
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:16.590
defense arguing a lone holdout juror had acknowledged doubt but

127
00:09:16.649 --> 00:09:21.549
was refusing to properly apply the court's instruction on reasonable doubt.

128
00:09:21.649 --> 00:09:24.179
The alleged holdout is believed to be one of the

129
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.840
three male jurors on a 12-jury panel after defense attorney

130
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.159
Kevin Reddington repeatedly referred to the unnamed juror as a

131
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.429
male inside and outside of court. The other jurors know

132
00:09:37.450 --> 00:09:40.470
they were robbed by one man, he said, for whatever

133
00:09:40.570 --> 00:09:44.200
his agenda was, who stole seven weeks of the life

134
00:09:44.259 --> 00:09:47.279
of these other jurors that were so attentive, so beautiful,

135
00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:50.639
so wonderful, and listened to the evidence, he told reporters

136
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:54.139
after leaving the courtroom. And you can see how defeated

137
00:09:54.230 --> 00:09:56.610
they were sitting there. And I got a funny feeling

138
00:09:56.649 --> 00:09:59.110
they could go on for another week if they had to,

139
00:09:59.190 --> 00:10:03.220
so I hope this guy... can sleep well at night. Now,

140
00:10:03.409 --> 00:10:06.840
also speaking outside of the courthouse was Tim Cruz. He

141
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:10.000
was the district attorney and he acknowledged the victims in

142
00:10:10.019 --> 00:10:14.940
the case. Finally, we get some acknowledgement there. The Clancy's children,

143
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:21.129
five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callen. Quote, it's our

144
00:10:21.169 --> 00:10:24.230
job to make sure the victims are not invisible. I

145
00:10:24.289 --> 00:10:27.710
am a father and a grandfather, and I cannot imagine

146
00:10:27.730 --> 00:10:32.250
the hell this entire family has lived through. Clancy's attorneys

147
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:36.179
made an emergency appeal to the state Supreme Court in

148
00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:39.960
in an attempt to stay the mistrial and force further

149
00:10:40.100 --> 00:10:46.370
inquiry into the juror. Justice Wendlandt denied that request last

150
00:10:46.429 --> 00:10:50.169
Friday afternoon, clearing the way for Sullivan to formally declare

151
00:10:50.330 --> 00:10:53.509
a mistrial. Clancy has been charged with first degree murder

152
00:10:53.570 --> 00:10:57.149
in the January 2023 deaths of her children, each whom

153
00:10:57.250 --> 00:11:01.330
had been strangled with exercise bands. The trial centered on

154
00:11:01.370 --> 00:11:04.350
whether she was legally responsible for her actions at the

155
00:11:04.409 --> 00:11:09.240
time and the defense argued it wasn't due to postpartum psychosis.

156
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.519
Her attorneys argued severe mental illness left her unable to

157
00:11:13.580 --> 00:11:17.679
appreciate the wrongfulness of what she was doing or unable

158
00:11:17.740 --> 00:11:22.019
to conform her conduct to what was required by the law.

159
00:11:22.620 --> 00:11:24.990
And that's important. I want you to really think about that.

160
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:30.210
Prosecutors maintain Clancy remained criminally responsible and pointed to evidence

161
00:11:30.269 --> 00:11:34.889
they say showed planning, purposeful behavior and awareness of what

162
00:11:34.950 --> 00:11:38.169
she was doing before, during, and after the killings. Now,

163
00:11:38.250 --> 00:11:43.659
during the trial, Clancy's former husband, Patrick Clancy, testified about

164
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.200
the day of the killings, which happened while he was

165
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:50.690
running errands that included picking up the children's stool softener

166
00:11:50.850 --> 00:11:54.649
at CVS and takeout for dinner. They spoke on the

167
00:11:54.690 --> 00:11:57.840
phone while he was out. Under state law, once lack

168
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:02.860
of criminal responsibility is properly raised, prosecutors must prove beyond

169
00:12:02.899 --> 00:12:06.820
a reasonable doubt the defendant is criminally responsible. The mistrial

170
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:09.899
means the case ends without a verdict and claims he

171
00:12:09.940 --> 00:12:14.340
was neither convicted nor acquitted. Prosecutors can seek to retry

172
00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:17.769
her but have not yet announced if they will. Sullivan

173
00:12:17.809 --> 00:12:21.210
said he wants the case retried sooner rather than later,

174
00:12:21.649 --> 00:12:25.759
suggesting new trials could potentially take place later this fall.

175
00:12:26.220 --> 00:12:29.399
Clancy is due back in court September 29 for a

176
00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:35.039
status hearing trial assignment in defense Rule 25 motion. All

177
00:12:35.110 --> 00:12:39.309
previous bail orders remain in effect. The mistrial followed a

178
00:12:39.330 --> 00:12:43.549
trial that focused extensively on Clancy's psychiatric condition in the

179
00:12:43.610 --> 00:12:47.529
months and weeks before the children died. Juries heard testimony

180
00:12:47.649 --> 00:12:54.370
about her treatment by mental health professionals, psychiatric medication, anxiety, depression, insomnia,

181
00:12:54.769 --> 00:12:58.399
and other symptoms that were documented before the killings. On

182
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:03.340
January 24th of 2023, authorities responded to the Clancy's home

183
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.320
and after Patrick Clancy returned, found his wife seriously injured

184
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:10.279
outside of the house, and the couple's three children were

185
00:13:10.350 --> 00:13:14.269
found inside. Corr and Dawson died that night. Callum was

186
00:13:14.309 --> 00:13:18.250
taken to the hospital and died several days later. Lindsay

187
00:13:18.289 --> 00:13:22.879
Clancy did survive after jumping from a second-story window and

188
00:13:22.980 --> 00:13:26.419
suffering injuries that left her paralyzed. and in a wheelchair.

189
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.120
The prosecution and defense offered sharply different explanations for what

190
00:13:31.179 --> 00:13:34.190
happened before the children were killed, and the defense had

191
00:13:34.330 --> 00:13:38.669
argued that the deaths occurred after months of worsening psychiatric

192
00:13:38.850 --> 00:13:43.919
symptoms and treatment and that Clancy's mental condition had deteriorated

193
00:13:44.419 --> 00:13:49.080
beyond the point where she could legally be held responsible. Specifically,

194
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.259
the defense contended that Clancy heard a male voice commanding

195
00:13:52.299 --> 00:13:55.759
her to kill her three children. Dr. Philip Resnick, a

196
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:59.240
forensic psychiatrist, said it was almost as if she was

197
00:13:59.299 --> 00:14:02.059
a puppet. Quote, not only did she hear a command,

198
00:14:02.100 --> 00:14:04.200
but she felt her body was taken over by an

199
00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:07.299
external force where she was in a dream state and

200
00:14:07.379 --> 00:14:10.240
did not have control of her body. It was almost

201
00:14:10.299 --> 00:14:12.549
like she was a puppet and someone else was pulling

202
00:14:12.590 --> 00:14:17.210
the strings. However, prosecutors rejected that claim and their experts

203
00:14:17.409 --> 00:14:21.509
argued Clancy deliberately created an opportunity to be alone with

204
00:14:21.570 --> 00:14:27.330
her children and intentionally killed them. Gregory Saithoff, a forensic

205
00:14:27.379 --> 00:14:31.679
psychiatrist at the University of Virginia who consults with the FBI,

206
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:37.860
told jurors Clancy's self-described auditory thoughts hallucinations were very unusual. Quote,

207
00:14:38.059 --> 00:14:40.179
what was significant to me is that she had not

208
00:14:40.259 --> 00:14:45.620
spoken about hearing voices before any of these mental health professionals, psychiatrists,

209
00:14:45.659 --> 00:14:50.259
nurse practitioners, etc. This was the first time she reported that,

210
00:14:50.379 --> 00:14:54.159
and then she experienced an auditory hallucination, according to what

211
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:57.610
she told me. So that was unusual. And then what

212
00:14:57.639 --> 00:15:01.110
was very unusual was the fact that the voice stopped

213
00:15:01.190 --> 00:15:05.049
with the strangling of her youngest son. Paula Musgrove, Lindsay

214
00:15:05.090 --> 00:15:08.740
Clancy's mother, also told jurors about the mental health problems

215
00:15:08.820 --> 00:15:13.039
in an October 2022 text message Lindsay Clancy asked her

216
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:15.500
mother for help. Quote, mom, will you please come up

217
00:15:15.570 --> 00:15:18.809
and stay with me? I'm really sick. Something's wrong. I

218
00:15:18.830 --> 00:15:22.110
have horrible insomnia all night and I just don't know

219
00:15:22.169 --> 00:15:24.129
how I'm going to get through the day. It's really

220
00:15:24.169 --> 00:15:28.110
scary and I don't want to be alone. So I

221
00:15:28.169 --> 00:15:31.950
don't want to go really super deep into this. I'm

222
00:15:31.970 --> 00:15:36.450
going to tell you this. It's look, I'm a dude, right?

223
00:15:36.950 --> 00:15:42.169
I'm not female. I know one thing postpartum depression is

224
00:15:42.309 --> 00:15:46.580
certainly a real thing. I have people that are close

225
00:15:46.620 --> 00:15:50.379
to me that have experienced that certainly not to the

226
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:53.740
extent that they killed their children, but it is hard

227
00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:56.019
for me. And even people I know that have had

228
00:15:56.080 --> 00:16:00.200
that to wrap their brain around doing something like that.

229
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:05.529
I think this is horrific. I think this is tragic. Um,

230
00:16:06.409 --> 00:16:09.700
I am, again, a guy, so I can't relate. And

231
00:16:09.720 --> 00:16:11.340
I'm not going to talk out of school here and

232
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:13.500
act like I know a whole bunch of shit about

233
00:16:13.700 --> 00:16:18.059
postpartum depression, because I don't. But I can tell you

234
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:22.259
one thing. If you kill your three children, it's hard

235
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:25.529
for me to imagine you should ever be let out

236
00:16:25.570 --> 00:16:29.149
of jail for that, at the very least. And I'm

237
00:16:29.169 --> 00:16:31.529
just going to leave it at that, because Kelly is

238
00:16:31.570 --> 00:16:35.309
going to be doing a kind of a series on

239
00:16:35.370 --> 00:16:39.340
this entire case. And I don't want to say anything

240
00:16:39.379 --> 00:16:41.840
that she, not that she doesn't want me to say,

241
00:16:41.940 --> 00:16:45.259
but I want her to be able to tell that story.

242
00:16:45.340 --> 00:16:48.000
So I'm going to leave it at that. But as

243
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.840
of now, it looks like this thing likely will be

244
00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:54.200
going back to court. It's hard for me to imagine

245
00:16:54.700 --> 00:16:58.299
that they're not going to retry her again. All right,

246
00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:01.419
got a new little segment for you today. It is

247
00:17:01.500 --> 00:17:06.309
called Any Given Saturday. And look, last week or this

248
00:17:06.369 --> 00:17:10.369
past week was opening weekend of football season. You knew

249
00:17:10.390 --> 00:17:12.970
they were going to have some crazy stuff go down

250
00:17:13.069 --> 00:17:15.650
all over the country. I'm going to bring you some

251
00:17:15.690 --> 00:17:18.700
of the more wild things that did occur. I'm going

252
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:21.859
to tell you I was at the LSU game where

253
00:17:21.900 --> 00:17:26.200
they totally destroyed Clemson. And that's no disrespect to Clemson.

254
00:17:26.700 --> 00:17:29.559
One thing I'll say is they never quit. And they

255
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:32.369
certainly had every reason to quit. I mean, it wasn't

256
00:17:32.569 --> 00:17:37.349
a close game by any means. Over 300,000 people tailgating

257
00:17:37.390 --> 00:17:43.529
in Tiger Stadium. And 100, I think the official was 103,524

258
00:17:44.190 --> 00:17:48.059
people inside of Tiger Stadium. Me and KJ both went.

259
00:17:48.460 --> 00:17:52.319
She has season tickets. I don't have season tickets, but

260
00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:55.730
I definitely got tickets to this one. went and had

261
00:17:55.750 --> 00:17:57.690
a phenomenal time. So I'm going to tell you about

262
00:17:57.710 --> 00:17:59.490
some of the wild things that happened all over the

263
00:17:59.579 --> 00:18:03.000
country in this crime report. And we're going to start

264
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:06.740
off with the Texas A & M- Missouri State game at

265
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:13.440
Kyle Field. Now, 61-year-old Manuel Ramirez of College Station, he

266
00:18:13.460 --> 00:18:17.690
was arrested in Section 338, and he was charged with

267
00:18:17.829 --> 00:18:23.910
invasive video recording, which is a felony in Texas. Off-duty

268
00:18:24.170 --> 00:18:28.539
Brian O'Connor, Brian, Texas, which is a city, not a name,

269
00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:32.509
officers working security were tipped off by a witness who

270
00:18:32.569 --> 00:18:37.349
saw him recording under women's shorts when they found him

271
00:18:37.430 --> 00:18:41.059
near a handicap ramp. He was still holding that phone up.

272
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:44.839
He was actively recording a woman standing above him and

273
00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.549
police said her underwear was visible in the video. The

274
00:18:48.630 --> 00:18:52.509
victim was told on the spot and chose to press charges.

275
00:18:52.589 --> 00:18:55.890
His phone was seized. He's not an A & M employee.

276
00:18:55.950 --> 00:18:58.839
He was working the game. He was kind of like

277
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:02.680
a contract company that does custodial stuff at the stadium.

278
00:19:02.700 --> 00:19:08.200
And of course, they fired him immediately. And the university police,

279
00:19:08.279 --> 00:19:12.700
they issued a blunt statement saying invasive recording, uh, is

280
00:19:12.789 --> 00:19:16.569
not going to be tolerated here. And this gentleman was arrested.

281
00:19:16.589 --> 00:19:18.509
And I'm going to tell you something that occurred that

282
00:19:18.769 --> 00:19:23.329
I saw at tiger stadium while walking around, while people

283
00:19:23.390 --> 00:19:27.559
were tailgating this past weekend, there's a, there was two

284
00:19:27.690 --> 00:19:31.519
young ladies, uh, maybe 22, 23. They were walking, uh,

285
00:19:34.890 --> 00:19:40.099
down basically a pathway in between a bunch of tailgates.

286
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:42.359
But there was hardly anybody there. This is like nine

287
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:44.779
o'clock in the morning. I got there early because I

288
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:47.970
wanted to watch College Game Day, which was in Tiger Stadium.

289
00:19:48.089 --> 00:19:52.859
Beautiful girls, absolutely gorgeous. There's a guy, he's apparently already

290
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:55.599
drunk and he like beelines it out of his little

291
00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:58.059
tailgate tent where he was setting up and it was

292
00:19:58.119 --> 00:20:01.759
just him under that tailgate. And he says something to him.

293
00:20:01.819 --> 00:20:05.329
I'm sure it was something, you know, hey cuties or

294
00:20:05.390 --> 00:20:08.390
some sick shit like that, that you're going to harass

295
00:20:08.410 --> 00:20:13.380
these pretty young girls and you're like 60. So they

296
00:20:13.420 --> 00:20:16.700
kind of laughed that off. They kept walking. He walks

297
00:20:16.819 --> 00:20:20.109
in the middle of the pathway, picks up his phone

298
00:20:20.690 --> 00:20:24.569
and starts recording them, you know, basically recording their asses.

299
00:20:24.869 --> 00:20:28.119
That's what it looked like to me. And I'm like,

300
00:20:28.619 --> 00:20:31.599
what is he doing? I said it loud enough that

301
00:20:31.660 --> 00:20:33.779
I knew he would hear me. And he saw me

302
00:20:33.819 --> 00:20:36.079
coming towards him. And man, when I tell you he

303
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:39.779
put that phone down and hauled ass, he like ran

304
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:42.759
into the middle of his tent over there. And I

305
00:20:42.779 --> 00:20:45.400
was with my wife and I really did not feel

306
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.119
like getting into it with this guy at that particular time.

307
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:50.619
But I wanted to let him know I saw what

308
00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:52.660
he was doing. If there would have been a cop

309
00:20:52.700 --> 00:20:56.369
right there, I would have told him. But yeah, I

310
00:20:56.390 --> 00:20:59.059
was saying as loud as possible, this guy is a

311
00:20:59.170 --> 00:21:02.500
pervert and recording girls and they don't even know it

312
00:21:02.980 --> 00:21:05.079
when they're walking in front of him or when they

313
00:21:05.099 --> 00:21:08.099
walk past him. So you got to be really cognizant

314
00:21:08.259 --> 00:21:12.039
of that. We'll move on to the next one. A

315
00:21:12.140 --> 00:21:16.359
Gamecocks freshman goes from scout team honor to 4 a.m.

316
00:21:16.500 --> 00:21:21.069
arrest in a street racing charge. South Carolina's true freshman

317
00:21:21.109 --> 00:21:24.950
tight end Camden Ramsey says, He played six snaps in

318
00:21:24.970 --> 00:21:29.769
the Gamecocks' 57-0 opener over Kent State. But at 4

319
00:21:29.769 --> 00:21:31.730
or 2 a.m., he got in some trouble, and he

320
00:21:31.779 --> 00:21:35.660
was actually booked for racing on a public road. He

321
00:21:35.700 --> 00:21:39.500
was released a few hours later on basically a personal

322
00:21:39.660 --> 00:21:44.019
recognizance bond. And South Carolina law treats racing on a

323
00:21:44.059 --> 00:21:48.680
public road pretty broad. uh and so you can get

324
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.619
in different trouble depending on what you were doing he

325
00:21:52.660 --> 00:21:56.579
was apparently rolling man going over 100 miles an hour

326
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:59.440
running red lights all that stuff so he could get

327
00:21:59.589 --> 00:22:03.650
six months in jail but interesting that a player actually

328
00:22:03.690 --> 00:22:06.890
got arrested at four o'clock in the morning the night

329
00:22:06.990 --> 00:22:08.769
he and he played in the game i mean he

330
00:22:08.789 --> 00:22:11.670
wasn't just a uh He was a true freshman, but

331
00:22:11.710 --> 00:22:14.390
he wasn't someone that just rode the bench. I mean,

332
00:22:14.430 --> 00:22:18.670
he played some snaps for South Carolina. Now, there wasn't

333
00:22:18.690 --> 00:22:22.750
a whole lot of crime arrests that were reported beyond that.

334
00:22:22.789 --> 00:22:24.930
I'm sure there was some out there, but they did

335
00:22:24.970 --> 00:22:28.819
have some interesting stories. And one of them. included arch

336
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:33.480
manning who actually ate the turf before kickoff and that

337
00:22:33.579 --> 00:22:36.240
this is a clip that's went viral but you know

338
00:22:36.259 --> 00:22:39.240
a lot of these teams now including lsu when they

339
00:22:39.309 --> 00:22:42.970
come out they have these fog machines and they run

340
00:22:43.109 --> 00:22:45.490
out through the fog and it looks really cool well

341
00:22:45.630 --> 00:22:49.430
arch manning who is the starting quarterback for texas okay

342
00:22:49.470 --> 00:22:52.660
and he's a manning right he's running out there he

343
00:22:53.380 --> 00:22:57.119
Goes kind of into the fog and a fan reaches out.

344
00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:00.599
It looked like to tap his shoulder pads, but they

345
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:04.509
actually grabbed him. When they did, they pulled his ass

346
00:23:04.690 --> 00:23:08.410
down and he went face first and just face pointed

347
00:23:08.450 --> 00:23:11.880
into that turf. And I mean hard, bruh. And then

348
00:23:11.900 --> 00:23:14.119
at the same time that he did that, he tripped

349
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.240
over someone. It's pretty crazy in the clip because he

350
00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:20.559
just absolutely disappears into the fog. You see him one

351
00:23:20.619 --> 00:23:23.509
second and he went down so hard. I thought he

352
00:23:23.529 --> 00:23:27.289
was injured at that particular time. Fortunately, he wasn't. If

353
00:23:27.309 --> 00:23:32.529
you're a Texas fan, fortunately, he wasn't anyway, but. He

354
00:23:32.630 --> 00:23:34.589
got up, finished the game, and actually had a pretty

355
00:23:34.630 --> 00:23:38.789
good game. But that was an interesting clip that went viral.

356
00:23:39.690 --> 00:23:42.799
And that's really all I got for you on any

357
00:23:43.059 --> 00:23:49.700
given Saturday, but a pretty wild first weekend in the

358
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:52.730
football season all over the country. And every week I'll

359
00:23:52.769 --> 00:23:57.420
bring you some interesting stories. like that with this segment

360
00:23:57.440 --> 00:24:00.700
throughout football season. All right, let's go to West Virginia

361
00:24:00.779 --> 00:24:04.049
and a high school principal has been arrested and charged

362
00:24:04.230 --> 00:24:10.250
after allegedly placing recording devices in several changing areas designated

363
00:24:10.289 --> 00:24:13.930
for female students at the school. These devices were discovered

364
00:24:14.069 --> 00:24:17.920
at Brooke High School. This is in Wellsburg. Eric James

365
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:22.319
was arrested in connection with this incident last Thursday. James,

366
00:24:22.339 --> 00:24:25.839
who is 53, has since been charged with two felony

367
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:29.420
counts of breaking and entering and one felony count of

368
00:24:29.539 --> 00:24:35.599
intentionally intercepting communication. In a press conference, Brooke County Sheriff

369
00:24:35.740 --> 00:24:40.119
Richard Beattie said that a school custodian initially discovered the

370
00:24:40.140 --> 00:24:43.049
device and he said it looked like an ink pen

371
00:24:43.230 --> 00:24:46.710
while he was cleaning. The employee soon realized it was

372
00:24:46.750 --> 00:24:50.329
a recording device, at which point he immediately took the

373
00:24:50.369 --> 00:24:54.970
device to authorities. Beatty said investigators promptly swept the school

374
00:24:55.089 --> 00:24:59.170
and four devices were found in total. Two in the

375
00:24:59.329 --> 00:25:02.890
area where the school's dance team changed clothes, one in

376
00:25:02.930 --> 00:25:06.509
the girls' varsity locker room, and a fourth in the

377
00:25:06.549 --> 00:25:10.710
girls' PE locker room. The sheriff said authorities quickly identified

378
00:25:10.809 --> 00:25:14.549
James as their suspect and said, get this, this is

379
00:25:14.589 --> 00:25:16.809
how they knew it was him. When we opened the

380
00:25:16.869 --> 00:25:20.619
first device, there was actual footage of him setting it

381
00:25:20.670 --> 00:25:23.539
in place and adjusting the camera angle to be sure

382
00:25:23.579 --> 00:25:26.619
he was getting what he was looking for. He also

383
00:25:26.779 --> 00:25:31.480
added the investigation is ongoing. Brooks County Superintendent Jeffrey Cook

384
00:25:31.519 --> 00:25:34.259
said the school district had been made aware of the

385
00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:38.890
recording devices the previous afternoon, saying, our main priority is

386
00:25:39.089 --> 00:25:42.730
our kids. The kids feel betrayed. I think we all

387
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:46.500
feel a little betrayed. And we're fully cooperating with law

388
00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:50.119
enforcement and will continue to do that. James is currently

389
00:25:50.160 --> 00:25:54.059
being held on a $ 100, 000 bond. And a preliminary hearing

390
00:25:54.339 --> 00:25:58.420
is scheduled for September 14th. And yet another thing, y'all,

391
00:25:58.859 --> 00:26:03.190
that you have to watch out for with this technology

392
00:26:03.650 --> 00:26:05.529
going to where it's going. I mean, it looks like

393
00:26:05.569 --> 00:26:08.750
a pin. And I actually researched what those things look

394
00:26:08.809 --> 00:26:11.660
like after I came across this article, and I mean,

395
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:15.109
you would never know unless you were looking for it,

396
00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:18.039
that this was a recording device and you picked it

397
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:22.420
up because, uh, from what I understand, uh, doing research,

398
00:26:22.579 --> 00:26:26.140
they are heavier than a regular pin, but unless you

399
00:26:26.180 --> 00:26:28.230
picked it up and you just saw it in passing,

400
00:26:28.369 --> 00:26:30.849
it looks like a real pin according to the pictures

401
00:26:30.890 --> 00:26:34.230
that I saw. So, man, you gotta be with your

402
00:26:34.269 --> 00:26:37.240
head on a swivel and disgusting, uh, that a high

403
00:26:37.299 --> 00:26:41.099
school principal, the most trusted person at the high school,

404
00:26:41.740 --> 00:26:45.119
is the one you got to watch out for. Just crazy.

405
00:26:45.140 --> 00:26:47.410
And this guy's in a lot of trouble for this one,

406
00:26:47.470 --> 00:26:51.109
I promise you. All right, let's go to Illinois. And y'all,

407
00:26:51.690 --> 00:26:54.930
this is one of the problems that comes out of

408
00:26:54.990 --> 00:26:58.349
high profile cases that we're going to talk about right here.

409
00:26:58.910 --> 00:27:04.509
And it is absolutely stomach-turning. An Illinois mother is accused

410
00:27:04.569 --> 00:27:10.130
of killing her toddler, a two-year-old, shortly after texting friends

411
00:27:10.230 --> 00:27:15.039
about the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. Corey Walsh, who is 40,

412
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:19.059
was charged with first-degree murder last week. Now, the charges

413
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:21.859
are in connection with the death of her two-year-old son.

414
00:27:22.450 --> 00:27:26.410
Officers with the Frankfurt Police Department responded to a residence

415
00:27:26.869 --> 00:27:30.609
after receiving a report of an injured, unresponsive child. And

416
00:27:30.670 --> 00:27:35.339
when officers arrived, a neighbor was performing CPR on that child,

417
00:27:35.779 --> 00:27:40.119
later identified as two-year-old Barrett Walsh. The child, also known

418
00:27:40.180 --> 00:27:44.859
as Bear, was reportedly hanging from a rafter in the

419
00:27:45.099 --> 00:27:49.460
basement by his neck, and his feet were above the

420
00:27:49.509 --> 00:27:53.549
ground when the neighbor found him. And that is Oh,

421
00:27:53.589 --> 00:27:58.400
that's so infuriating. Prosecutors allege that Walsh believed Barrett was

422
00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:03.549
the antichrist and the devil. After Barrett was located, responding

423
00:28:03.650 --> 00:28:09.430
officers found Walsh upstairs in a bathtub with non-threatening, non-life-threatening

424
00:28:09.509 --> 00:28:13.089
knife wounds that were believed to be self-inflicted. Witnesses later

425
00:28:13.150 --> 00:28:17.160
reportedly told police that Walsh had recently become very invested

426
00:28:17.220 --> 00:28:19.599
in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial and that she had

427
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:23.819
been actively discussing the case in group text messages hours

428
00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:26.980
before the killing. An attorney for Walsh said she was

429
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:31.410
a married mother of four and was experiencing a psychotic episode.

430
00:28:31.910 --> 00:28:35.430
This is a tragedy for the Walsh family, obviously, whom

431
00:28:35.589 --> 00:28:41.009
are mourning a child. The attorney said Walsh remains in

432
00:28:41.069 --> 00:28:47.339
custody and is being held for medical treatment. Disgusting. You know,

433
00:28:47.500 --> 00:28:51.710
every adjective you can think of. But this person is

434
00:28:51.849 --> 00:28:55.789
now seeing all of the attention that was on this

435
00:28:55.930 --> 00:29:01.059
case and how so many people are feeling sorry for

436
00:29:01.180 --> 00:29:05.619
Lindsay Clancy that she wants some of that attention. That's

437
00:29:05.680 --> 00:29:08.079
my opinion on it. I don't have much more to

438
00:29:08.140 --> 00:29:12.289
say about it, but just... horrific. How could you hang

439
00:29:12.329 --> 00:29:16.200
your own two-year-old son? Let's go to something a little

440
00:29:16.240 --> 00:29:19.940
bit more light, and that is Pinellas County. Of course,

441
00:29:20.339 --> 00:29:23.220
I've covered a lot of Pinellas County cases. This is

442
00:29:23.299 --> 00:29:26.859
in Florida, and I'm going to tell you about Jessica Sanchez,

443
00:29:26.900 --> 00:29:30.140
who is 41, and she's known on the streets as

444
00:29:30.329 --> 00:29:34.390
Crooked Jess. Okay, so that right there, the nickname alone

445
00:29:34.450 --> 00:29:36.890
should tell you a lot. She was supposed to be

446
00:29:36.930 --> 00:29:39.789
the middle woman, if you will, in a Pinellas County

447
00:29:39.809 --> 00:29:45.259
shooting Office buy and bust. In March, an undercover deputy

448
00:29:45.319 --> 00:29:49.420
gave her $ 60 and he sent her toward a house.

449
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:52.960
And it was described in the arrest affidavit that this

450
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:57.740
was a place that facilitates crime. transactions of illegal narcotics.

451
00:29:57.779 --> 00:30:00.630
So a drug house, right? The deputy watched her walk

452
00:30:00.670 --> 00:30:03.849
to the property and then she disappeared into the backyard

453
00:30:03.950 --> 00:30:06.769
and he waits a little while. And an hour later,

454
00:30:07.369 --> 00:30:11.269
guess what? Crooked Jess still ain't come out. The officer wrote,

455
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:14.619
it was more than a reasonable amount of time to

456
00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:19.559
wait for her to process a drug transaction and And

457
00:30:19.700 --> 00:30:24.259
so his conclusion was pretty quick. He said, I think

458
00:30:24.339 --> 00:30:28.950
she's got no intentions of coming back to facilitate this

459
00:30:29.009 --> 00:30:32.470
transaction so we can make this bust. And what made

460
00:30:32.509 --> 00:30:35.950
matters worse is not only was she gone, but the

461
00:30:35.990 --> 00:30:39.380
drug money was gone. She ran off with the 60 bucks.

462
00:30:41.230 --> 00:30:45.109
Crooked Jess, nowhere in sight. So it actually took deputies

463
00:30:45.230 --> 00:30:48.190
several months before they finally caught up with her. And

464
00:30:48.210 --> 00:30:51.779
she was arrested this past week and booked on misdemeanor

465
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:55.480
theft for taking the buy money. Now, during the arrest,

466
00:30:55.619 --> 00:30:58.500
the officers did find a piece of aluminum foil tucked

467
00:30:58.539 --> 00:31:03.779
in her undergarments. Lab testing showed it had fentanyl residue

468
00:31:04.099 --> 00:31:07.829
on that particular piece of aluminum foil. And of course

469
00:31:07.869 --> 00:31:11.710
that added a possession of drug paraphernalia charge to her.

470
00:31:12.190 --> 00:31:15.279
Bomb was set at $ 650 and she was held in

471
00:31:15.339 --> 00:31:19.299
lieu of that amount. The court records show she has

472
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:23.960
a pretty long rap sheet, drug possession, prostitution, and narcotics.

473
00:31:24.619 --> 00:31:27.619
But one thing you can't find anywhere on the internet

474
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:31.799
is how she got the name Crooked Jess. Now that

475
00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:36.349
sting never produced a crack purchase. It only produced a

476
00:31:36.349 --> 00:31:39.410
$ 60 loss and a bunch of embarrassment for the Pinellas

477
00:31:39.430 --> 00:31:44.690
County deputies as she ran off with that $ 60. Crooked Jess,

478
00:31:44.869 --> 00:31:48.079
don't trust her. Anyone with that name, don't trust them.

479
00:31:48.730 --> 00:31:50.980
She's going to run off with that money, and she's

480
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:52.839
going to get hurt some fentanyl with it. All right,

481
00:31:52.900 --> 00:31:56.099
another story out of Missouri is really going to blow

482
00:31:56.119 --> 00:32:00.059
your mind. A Missouri woman is accused of trading a

483
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:04.359
foster child for, get this, get ready for it, a monkey.

484
00:32:04.940 --> 00:32:07.869
And what is even more unbelievable is she was allowed

485
00:32:07.910 --> 00:32:11.769
to remain out of prison after a judge suspended her

486
00:32:11.849 --> 00:32:14.829
seven year sentence for child endangerment. So let me tell

487
00:32:14.849 --> 00:32:18.829
you about it. This past week, Lincoln County Judge Thomas Frawley,

488
00:32:18.869 --> 00:32:22.769
he sentenced Brenda Deutsch to seven years in prison, but

489
00:32:22.829 --> 00:32:27.230
he suspended the entire sentence. She was instead placed on

490
00:32:27.309 --> 00:32:31.910
three years of state supervised probation. And this is Missouri, y'all.

491
00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:37.759
Frawley also revoked her foster parent license, called her reprehensible.

492
00:32:38.490 --> 00:32:43.150
and apologized to people who testified about alleged abuse. Deutsch

493
00:32:43.269 --> 00:32:46.490
pleaded guilty to endangering the welfare of a child in

494
00:32:46.509 --> 00:32:49.990
the first degree, two counts of abuse or neglect of

495
00:32:50.029 --> 00:32:53.130
a child, and all of that was dismissed during her

496
00:32:53.190 --> 00:32:56.490
plea agreement. Now, the count to which she pleaded guilty

497
00:32:56.569 --> 00:33:00.700
accused her of, get this, knowingly creating substantial risk to

498
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:05.390
the girl's health by sending her to live unattended in

499
00:33:05.450 --> 00:33:10.680
a Texas home with unsanitary conditions. Texas Child Protective Services

500
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:15.200
ultimately intervened and removed her from that residence. At sentencing,

501
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:21.599
Frawley emphasized Deutsch's conviction concerned that particular placement, saying she

502
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:24.940
did not abuse anyone, engage in pattern of abusive behavior,

503
00:33:25.059 --> 00:33:29.089
or trade a child for a monkey. Deutsch's biological daughter,

504
00:33:29.180 --> 00:33:33.269
Brenna Johnson, and a former foster child did speak about

505
00:33:33.309 --> 00:33:37.309
abuse during the sentencing, And the prosecuting attorney told the

506
00:33:37.369 --> 00:33:42.430
court his office had received numerous allegations against Deutsch, but

507
00:33:42.529 --> 00:33:47.490
were most concerned or the most concerned conduct was too

508
00:33:47.549 --> 00:33:51.490
old to prosecute under the statute of limitations. So on

509
00:33:51.549 --> 00:33:57.200
November 26, 2024, the Missouri Department of Social Services, they

510
00:33:57.220 --> 00:34:01.359
get an anonymous report alleging that Deutsch was physically and

511
00:34:01.420 --> 00:34:05.309
mentally abusing this girl. During a forensic interview, the girl

512
00:34:05.369 --> 00:34:09.170
said that Deutsch hit her with objects including shoes, wood trim,

513
00:34:09.329 --> 00:34:12.210
and a paddle. And she also claimed Deutsch did not

514
00:34:12.289 --> 00:34:15.360
give her enough food and sometimes donated her clothes to

515
00:34:15.380 --> 00:34:19.380
the Goodwill. Now, on February 6th of 2025, a school

516
00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:23.599
resource officer looking into the girl's absence learned she was

517
00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:28.059
from Texas. During the investigation, the officer was told of

518
00:34:28.139 --> 00:34:31.679
a rumor the girl had been traded for a monkey.

519
00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:35.789
The Texas woman that was caring for the child told

520
00:34:35.809 --> 00:34:38.570
investigators she was helping Deutsch because Deutsch and the girl

521
00:34:38.610 --> 00:34:41.710
were not getting along. The woman later said she no

522
00:34:41.789 --> 00:34:44.809
longer wanted to care for the girl, but Deutsch refused

523
00:34:44.849 --> 00:34:48.369
to pay for the girl's return flight. Deutsch later told

524
00:34:48.409 --> 00:34:51.210
investigators she had purchased a plane ticket for the girl,

525
00:34:51.590 --> 00:34:54.090
but the Texas woman could not take her to the airport,

526
00:34:54.510 --> 00:34:58.380
causing the ticket to go unused. The woman subsequently left

527
00:34:58.420 --> 00:35:01.139
the girl with another person while she went out of town. Y'all,

528
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:07.340
this is a... just a child and so far we're

529
00:35:07.460 --> 00:35:11.460
two people have left her just wherever they could leave

530
00:35:11.500 --> 00:35:16.840
her so to sum this one up all this information

531
00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:22.530
goes to the court and she gets seven years probation

532
00:35:23.090 --> 00:35:27.349
that's it way to go Missouri and we wonder why

533
00:35:27.409 --> 00:35:31.420
people continue to do stupid shit like this This is

534
00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:34.679
a great example of it. All right, let's go to Florida.

535
00:35:34.900 --> 00:35:38.329
And I have got a scam that you're going to

536
00:35:38.349 --> 00:35:40.590
want to hear about. And we cover scams on here

537
00:35:40.670 --> 00:35:44.619
from time to time. This one really unbelievable. So we're

538
00:35:44.659 --> 00:35:47.519
going to talk about a Georgia man who believed he

539
00:35:47.579 --> 00:35:51.880
was engaged to a female Florida sheriff's deputy and was

540
00:35:51.989 --> 00:35:56.030
absolutely shocked when a phone call revealed his supposed fiance

541
00:35:56.409 --> 00:36:01.269
was actually a man from South Carolina. So this deception

542
00:36:01.329 --> 00:36:05.329
came to light after the Athens County police officer instructed

543
00:36:05.369 --> 00:36:08.630
the victim to to call his fiance, whom he knew

544
00:36:08.909 --> 00:36:12.809
as Haley Morello. When the victim placed the call, the

545
00:36:12.849 --> 00:36:18.050
phone of 25-year-old Caleb Mills allegedly began ringing. The victim's

546
00:36:18.170 --> 00:36:22.429
photograph appeared on Mills' phone under the contact name Hubs.

547
00:36:23.409 --> 00:36:26.510
Police then told the victim that Mills was allegedly the

548
00:36:26.570 --> 00:36:30.110
person who had been posting as his fiance. The police

549
00:36:30.150 --> 00:36:32.860
report said the victim was in shock. I bet he was.

550
00:36:33.360 --> 00:36:37.519
Investigators said Mills used photographs taken from the personal Facebook

551
00:36:37.539 --> 00:36:41.320
account of a real female sheriff's deputy in Florida to

552
00:36:41.360 --> 00:36:46.320
construct the Haley Morello identity. He maintained fake social media

553
00:36:46.340 --> 00:36:49.789
accounts and used technology that actually altered his voice to

554
00:36:49.849 --> 00:36:53.550
sound like a woman during the phone calls. The victim

555
00:36:53.610 --> 00:36:58.110
had never met his purported fiance in person, but allegedly

556
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.900
sent money and allowed her, which is actually him, to

557
00:37:01.940 --> 00:37:06.199
use technology. his car. Investigators said Mills and the victim

558
00:37:06.260 --> 00:37:10.190
exchanged vehicles as part of the scheme. Now, the victim's

559
00:37:10.269 --> 00:37:13.769
family had become suspicious of the relationship and tried to

560
00:37:13.809 --> 00:37:16.590
convince him that he was being catfished. And that's what

561
00:37:16.610 --> 00:37:21.030
they call this. And this created significant tension between those

562
00:37:21.110 --> 00:37:25.510
family members. And they reportedly conducted their own investigation and

563
00:37:25.590 --> 00:37:28.960
identified Mills as a person they believe was behind this

564
00:37:29.059 --> 00:37:34.300
fictitious activity. Now, Police responded to a family dispute at

565
00:37:34.340 --> 00:37:38.019
the victim's apartment, and during the response, the supposed fiancé

566
00:37:38.420 --> 00:37:44.179
participated by speakerphone and identified herself as a law enforcement officer.

567
00:37:44.260 --> 00:37:47.340
The following day, someone claiming to be the victim called

568
00:37:47.380 --> 00:37:51.099
police and complained that this guy's family was harassing him.

569
00:37:51.539 --> 00:37:54.739
The caller also complained about how an officer had treated

570
00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:58.719
the supposed fiancé. The same person called again four days

571
00:37:58.820 --> 00:38:03.579
later to ask what action the police had taken. Investigators

572
00:38:03.639 --> 00:38:07.769
allege Mills had placed both calls while posing as the victim.

573
00:38:08.090 --> 00:38:10.550
Should have left all that shit alone, but this moron

574
00:38:11.050 --> 00:38:13.489
is calling the police trying to get people in trouble

575
00:38:13.909 --> 00:38:18.820
when he's catfishing somebody. A police supervisor became suspicious because

576
00:38:18.880 --> 00:38:21.960
the calls came from the South Carolina area code rather

577
00:38:22.019 --> 00:38:25.199
than the number that police had on file for the victim.

578
00:38:25.769 --> 00:38:29.369
An investigator went to the victim's apartment, saw his vehicle arrive.

579
00:38:29.510 --> 00:38:32.869
When the driver got out, the officer recognized him as Mills,

580
00:38:33.010 --> 00:38:37.300
and Mills identified himself as Alex Morello and claimed Caleb

581
00:38:37.340 --> 00:38:40.699
Mills was his brother. The officer later asked the victim

582
00:38:40.739 --> 00:38:44.000
who had his car, and the victim responded his fiancée

583
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:47.380
had had it. The officer then instructed him to call

584
00:38:47.619 --> 00:38:52.550
the fiance, prompting Mills' phone to ring. Police also suspect

585
00:38:52.710 --> 00:38:56.170
Mills may have stayed inside the victim's apartment without his

586
00:38:56.250 --> 00:38:58.650
knowledge while the victim was at work. Of course, he

587
00:38:58.690 --> 00:39:04.119
was arrested for identity fraud and other alleged abuse. the

588
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:06.900
department then took to Facebook to urge people to use

589
00:39:06.960 --> 00:39:11.780
caution when someone they have never met begins requesting money, gifts,

590
00:39:11.900 --> 00:39:14.619
or other items. And y'all, that seems like freaking common sense.

591
00:39:15.010 --> 00:39:20.889
You would not believe how much that happens. But unbelievable

592
00:39:20.949 --> 00:39:26.110
story out of Florida. And this guy was actually using

593
00:39:26.130 --> 00:39:28.929
a voice changer to sound like a female. So just

594
00:39:28.989 --> 00:39:31.969
because you talk to him, don't mean they are who

595
00:39:31.989 --> 00:39:35.670
they are. There you have that. And I got one

596
00:39:35.730 --> 00:39:38.150
more for you today. And then we're going to wrap

597
00:39:38.250 --> 00:39:41.210
up this episode and we're going to jump on the

598
00:39:41.269 --> 00:39:44.550
true crime time machine. And we're going to go back

599
00:39:44.829 --> 00:39:50.050
to probably in my opinion, the most horrific episode, day

600
00:39:50.110 --> 00:39:55.489
that I can recall, and that is September 11th of 2001.

601
00:39:55.489 --> 00:39:58.809
Of course, today, if you're listening to this on the

602
00:39:58.869 --> 00:40:03.610
regular drop, marks a quarter century since the morning that

603
00:40:04.090 --> 00:40:09.050
absolutely changed modern American history. For those that lived through

604
00:40:09.110 --> 00:40:14.389
September 11th of 2001, the images remain immediate. A crystal

605
00:40:14.429 --> 00:40:18.710
blue sky, Two towers burning, a field in Pennsylvania, and

606
00:40:18.750 --> 00:40:21.110
a hole in the side of the Pentagon. For a

607
00:40:21.230 --> 00:40:26.110
growing share of the entire country, roughly 3 in 10

608
00:40:26.110 --> 00:40:30.909
Americans were born after that day. 9-11 isn't a memory

609
00:40:30.989 --> 00:40:35.329
to them, but it is a lesson. The 25th anniversary

610
00:40:35.690 --> 00:40:39.130
has become a test of whether a nation can keep

611
00:40:39.269 --> 00:40:43.869
a wound from fading into abstraction. The attacks were carried

612
00:40:43.949 --> 00:40:49.000
out by 19 hijackers affiliated with al-Qaeda. Four commercial airliners,

613
00:40:49.199 --> 00:40:54.400
all westbound from the northeast, were seized mid-flight. At 8.46 a.m.,

614
00:40:54.480 --> 00:40:58.099
American Airlines Flight 11 struck the north tower of the

615
00:40:58.159 --> 00:41:02.679
World Trade Center between the 93rd and 99th floors. 17

616
00:41:03.179 --> 00:41:07.559
minutes later, United Airlines Flight 175 hit the South Tower

617
00:41:07.659 --> 00:41:13.159
between floors 77 and 85. At 9.37 a.m., an American

618
00:41:13.219 --> 00:41:18.489
Airlines Flight 77 slammed into the western face of the Pentagon,

619
00:41:18.610 --> 00:41:21.809
and at 10.03, United Airlines Flight 93 dove into a field.

620
00:41:23.969 --> 00:41:29.400
in Pennsylvania after passengers and crew stormed the cockpit. Investigators

621
00:41:29.460 --> 00:41:32.960
later concluded the plane had been aimed for Washington. The

622
00:41:33.019 --> 00:41:37.409
South Tower fell at 9.59 a.m., 56 minutes after it

623
00:41:37.469 --> 00:41:41.849
was struck. The North Tower collapsed at 10.28 a.m., and

624
00:41:41.909 --> 00:41:47.179
by afternoon, lower Manhattan fell was a gray landscape of dust, steel,

625
00:41:47.340 --> 00:41:53.340
and paper. The official death toll, 2,977 victims, not counting

626
00:41:53.380 --> 00:41:58.280
the 19 hijackers. Of those 2,753 that died at the

627
00:41:58.340 --> 00:42:02.579
World Trade Center site, there were 184 at the Pentagon

628
00:42:02.699 --> 00:42:07.030
and 40 aboard Flight 93. Victims would range in age

629
00:42:07.090 --> 00:42:11.409
from 2 to 85 and came from more than 90 countries.

630
00:42:12.039 --> 00:42:15.800
The attack remained the deadliest terrorist event in American history

631
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:21.280
and the greatest single-day loss of rescue personnel in the country.

632
00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:26.070
343 New York City firefighters, 23 NYPD officers, and 37

633
00:42:26.070 --> 00:42:30.349
Port Authority officers among them. The Twin Towers defined the

634
00:42:30.389 --> 00:42:35.510
lower Manhattan skyline for nearly three decades before they were destroyed.

635
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:40.619
The response remade American government and daily life. Within weeks,

636
00:42:40.780 --> 00:42:44.320
the Patriot Act would arrive. Within months, the Department of

637
00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:49.050
Homeland Security and airport security were federalized. The wars that

638
00:42:49.090 --> 00:42:53.849
followed in Afghanistan and Iraq lasted two decades, cost thousands

639
00:42:53.889 --> 00:42:58.590
of American lives, and consumed trillions of dollars. Osama bin Laden,

640
00:42:58.630 --> 00:43:02.239
who orchestrated the plot, was killed by U.S. forces in

641
00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:06.780
Pakistan in 2011 and and the United States withdrew from

642
00:43:06.920 --> 00:43:11.559
Afghanistan in 2021. Security officials note there has been no

643
00:43:11.639 --> 00:43:16.639
attack on U.S. soil comparable since then. An FDMY World

644
00:43:16.699 --> 00:43:20.289
Trade Center health program report released this month found more

645
00:43:20.309 --> 00:43:24.710
than 12,000 department members certified with at least one 9-11

646
00:43:25.090 --> 00:43:29.170
related condition. More than 600 Fire Department of New York

647
00:43:29.210 --> 00:43:36.090
firefighters and EMS members have died from World Trade Center-related

648
00:43:36.260 --> 00:43:40.219
illnesses since the day itself. And that's not something you

649
00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:45.159
typically think about. Now, with this being the 25th anniversary

650
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:49.039
this year, the Ground Zero ceremony will include a seventh

651
00:43:49.539 --> 00:43:53.440
moment of silent after the sixth that marked the plane

652
00:43:53.519 --> 00:43:56.909
strikes and the collapses, and that's dedicated today. to those

653
00:43:57.010 --> 00:44:01.320
lost from the 9-11 related illnesses. So they are coming

654
00:44:01.380 --> 00:44:05.760
around to recognizing that now. Also, the National September 11th

655
00:44:05.840 --> 00:44:09.469
Memorial and Museum will hold its annual commemoration on the

656
00:44:09.550 --> 00:44:14.030
plaza in Lower Manhattan. This starts around 8.30. Family members

657
00:44:14.199 --> 00:44:18.840
will read the names of 2,983 people. Vice President J.D.

658
00:44:18.920 --> 00:44:24.179
Vance is expected in New York, along with former presidents Bush, Clinton, Obama,

659
00:44:24.340 --> 00:44:28.039
and Biden. President Donald Trump plans to attend the Pentagon

660
00:44:28.579 --> 00:44:32.599
observance as well. Something smart that they did. They barred

661
00:44:32.699 --> 00:44:37.039
political speeches, and I think that's a great thing to do.

662
00:44:37.889 --> 00:44:41.840
At the Flight 93 National Memorial, the National Park Service

663
00:44:41.860 --> 00:44:45.579
will hold a morning observance and afternoon ceremony at the

664
00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:49.429
Wall of Names, where 40 marble slabs stand for the

665
00:44:49.469 --> 00:44:53.610
passengers and crew who fought the hijackers. And they have

666
00:44:53.650 --> 00:44:56.750
a walk scheduled that evening as well. Where the towers

667
00:44:56.889 --> 00:45:00.909
once stood, two square voids now hold water. and the

668
00:45:00.969 --> 00:45:04.349
names of the dead are actually cut into bronze around

669
00:45:04.389 --> 00:45:07.909
those pools. And at dusk on Friday, today, if you're

670
00:45:07.949 --> 00:45:10.050
listening to this on the regular drop, the tribute of

671
00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:14.030
light will rise again over lower Manhattan. These are two

672
00:45:14.090 --> 00:45:17.539
vertical beams. They go four miles high, and they're visible

673
00:45:17.619 --> 00:45:21.159
for 60 miles. For the first time, the installation will

674
00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:25.659
be broadcast live nationwide as part of a Disney Network special,

675
00:45:26.179 --> 00:45:31.000
and it will include performances by Laney Wilson, As well,

676
00:45:31.119 --> 00:45:34.219
the beams that stand in for the towers will be

677
00:45:34.280 --> 00:45:38.090
broadcast live at that time as well. So a lot

678
00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:41.369
of things going on. And look, for me personally, all

679
00:45:41.389 --> 00:45:46.469
of us who were alive in 2001 and of any

680
00:45:46.590 --> 00:45:49.539
age where we could really grasp what was going on,

681
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:54.199
we remember where we were. I remember at that time

682
00:45:54.239 --> 00:45:58.150
I was working a little health food store. that actually

683
00:45:58.210 --> 00:46:00.639
sold smoothies and things that a friend of mine owned.

684
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:03.860
And I was helping him out with running that store

685
00:46:04.440 --> 00:46:08.260
many years ago, obviously, 25 years ago. And I remember

686
00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:11.280
someone coming in and they said, hey, did you see

687
00:46:11.300 --> 00:46:16.110
a plane that hit the World Trade Center? And my

688
00:46:16.139 --> 00:46:18.929
thoughts were like everyone else's. Well, that had to be

689
00:46:18.949 --> 00:46:22.590
a horrific accident. And I'm thinking this was a small plane,

690
00:46:22.610 --> 00:46:26.760
you know, like a private plane someone was flying. And

691
00:46:26.900 --> 00:46:30.530
turned on the television in there and saw this was

692
00:46:30.590 --> 00:46:34.849
an actual airliner with hundreds of people on it. And

693
00:46:35.070 --> 00:46:38.409
I'll never forget when that second plane hit. I'm like,

694
00:46:38.710 --> 00:46:42.309
there's no way these were both accidents. And then the

695
00:46:42.329 --> 00:46:45.389
day from there just went downhill, right? You heard about

696
00:46:45.409 --> 00:46:48.369
the Pentagon getting hit. You heard about the plane going

697
00:46:48.409 --> 00:46:52.130
down in Pennsylvania. And it was a day none of

698
00:46:52.230 --> 00:46:55.010
us will ever forget. And I hope nobody ever forgets.

699
00:46:55.519 --> 00:47:02.260
forgets or realizes or feels like this has become something

700
00:47:02.420 --> 00:47:05.320
that we can, I don't know if the word is

701
00:47:05.389 --> 00:47:08.949
go soft on, but you need to always stay vigilant

702
00:47:09.889 --> 00:47:14.289
because there are people out there that they just don't care.

703
00:47:14.449 --> 00:47:17.550
They want to kill and they have evil in their heart.

704
00:47:18.550 --> 00:47:21.570
And it's important for us to always remember the victims

705
00:47:21.650 --> 00:47:26.510
that died and what happened that day. And how America

706
00:47:26.690 --> 00:47:32.440
rose up after that with resilience that we have here

707
00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:36.739
in the United States. Just a tragic, horrific time. And

708
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:41.900
that is your true crime time machine story for today.

709
00:47:42.340 --> 00:47:44.659
And that is it for me. I hope I kept

710
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:48.800
you here until the end. Hopefully, not hopefully, she will

711
00:47:48.860 --> 00:47:55.329
definitely be back next week. Kelly, get better soon. And

712
00:47:55.409 --> 00:47:58.420
to everybody out there, my name's Jim Chapman, and this

713
00:47:58.460 --> 00:48:01.619
has been another edition of CrimeWire Weekly.
