I 28 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 3: saw some reports saying that, you know, they weren't going 29 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 3: to show any of the evidence, but actually that was 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 3: a motion or that was a move made by the defense, 31 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: not the state. The state is moving to show them all, 32 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 3: but the defense has a concern about those being displayed 33 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 3: or published, quote unquote published before they've been admitted as evidence. 34 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 3: So that's the back and forth going on there, which 35 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 3: is which is interesting. I do have some notes on 36 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 3: that that it's the hearing started with arguments over publishing 37 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 3: of evidence beyond the courtroom, per the defense request. Perther defense, 38 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 3: the state wants evidence published. Defense doesn't want anything to 39 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: be public, especially prior to the judge of meitting as evidence. 40 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: So that's the central tension there. We've got Jay Town, 41 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 3: former prosecutor that is going to be joining us in 42 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:33,119 Speaker 3: just a second. And we also have which I think 43 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: is a very important guest. We have Austin Metcalfe's father 44 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 3: and that's Jeff Metcalf. He's going to be joining us. 45 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 3: I just reached out to him because there's very few 46 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 3: people that can understand the torment that Erica Kirk and 47 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 3: Rob and Catherine, Charlie's parents are are experiencing right now. 48 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: Just having to be in the courtroom with Tyler Robinson, 49 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: I can only imagine the agony that they are currently experiencing. 50 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,559 Speaker 3: So please pray for Erica, Pray for rob and Catherine, 51 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: Pray for the whole team, the larger team that's in 52 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 3: Utah today. And it is true, Don Junior is in 53 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: the courtroom by Erica, rob and Catherine's side, standing in 54 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: solidarity with them, So we appreciate Don for doing that. 55 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 3: Blake any thoughts, I gotta I'm gonna pull something together here. 56 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 4: I mean, we just we told you last week we're 57 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 4: committed to seeing this process through from beginning to end. 58 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 4: So we know this is a little unusual from our 59 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 4: normal show, but it's exactly what we want to be 60 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 4: doing in this moment. We want to There's been so 61 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 4: many false claims about this process online. There's been so 62 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 4: many There's been so much I think agitation because people 63 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 4: have been waiting for this. They want to see the 64 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 4: process of justice play out. And because there were so 65 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 4: many delays. 66 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: A lot of other stuff intruded, and. 67 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 4: We're so glad we're finally at this point where we're 68 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 4: seeing witnesses come up, we're seeing people talk about it, 69 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: and we're committed to showing every minute of it that 70 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 4: we're able to. 71 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 72 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: So the we got, like I said, we've got Jay 73 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 3: Town and we've got Austin Metcalf's father. 74 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is interesting too. So there was a 75 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:23,239 Speaker 2: you just heard. 76 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 3: The last witness before they took the break is actually 77 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 3: a UVU police officer. I'm not sure his name presently, 78 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: but essentially, he said he heard a shot and then 79 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 3: he was he was asked what kind of shot. He 80 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: said it was a it sounded like a rifle because 81 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 3: it was louder. He seemed to be familiar with the 82 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 3: type of shot. So, you know, the internet's going to 83 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 3: be full of all these alternate theories. Here's the police 84 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 3: officer that was on duty that day saying I heard 85 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 3: a rifle shot. Okay, so that's a that's a key 86 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 3: piece of evidence. 87 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: There. Here we go. 88 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 3: The defense attempted to object to entering the first exhibit 89 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 3: a photo of the courtyard in for publication the State 90 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: of Utah. So in this photograph affair, is this photograph 91 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 3: a fair and accurate depiction of the area of UVU 92 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 3: campus on September ten, twenty twenty five, Defense Your honor, 93 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: we would object to inability to inauthenticate. There's not been 94 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 3: a foundation laid that this officer took this photo can 95 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: verify when it was taken or by whom it was taken. 96 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: So we would object. 97 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 3: So this is the sort of back and forth that 98 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: is going to play out over the next couple of days. 99 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 3: We are being sort of warned that this is going 100 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: to be typical that you know, they're going to present evidence, 101 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: there's going to be objections. It all is very procedural, 102 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: and I mean, I don't know, there hasn't been a 103 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: whole heck of a lot presented yet, but there there 104 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 3: was a mention of meth that I'm trying to get. 105 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get clarity on. Oh. 106 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 3: Also, Judge Graff has entered in a picture for evidence 107 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 3: of the screwdriver found by Officer Bagley, So that's his 108 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: name into the record. I will go ahead and admit 109 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 3: so that was a direct quote from Judge graft. So 110 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 3: that was the the officer that heard the rifle shot. 111 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 3: Officer Bagley, he apparently was the one that discovered the 112 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 3: screwdriver on top of the. 113 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 4: Building building allegedly used for assembling disassembling the rifle. 114 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I you know, I know there's some controversy 115 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 3: over assembling or disassembling, so we'll we'll hold on that 116 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 3: and not make any judgments until the evidence is presented 117 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: in court. So that's about where we're at right now. 118 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: You know, we weren't expecting Uh oh, we have Jay 119 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: on the phone right now. All right, Jay Town are 120 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 3: you there. 121 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 5: I am here, I'm here, so sorry or we weren't 122 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 5: able to do video today. But but that's okay. It's 123 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 5: better they're staring at you anyway. 124 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 2: No, No, that's great. I appreciate it, Jay. 125 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 3: I know we've been it's very difficult to kind of 126 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: predict the clock for this hearing. They keep kind of 127 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: suggesting they're going to have a break at one time, 128 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 3: and then it either goes long or they get delayed 129 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: on the first you know, the first marker, and so 130 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: then everything that the timeline is shifting. But I guess 131 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: that's what we have to expect this week. All right, So, Jay, 132 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 3: you have been monitoring this hearing right very very closely. 133 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 3: You're a career prosecutor, your former US attorney. Tell us 134 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: what you have observed from this hearing thus far. 135 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 5: Well, a couple of things. One from the prosecution perspective, 136 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 5: they've been very meticulous. You know, anytime you put a 137 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 5: witness on, especially a professional like a police officer, which 138 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 5: my understanding is there's going to be four police officers 139 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 5: to testify to probably forty or fifty different exhibits, and 140 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 5: you're going to go through their experience, going to go through, 141 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 5: you know, where they were on that day, and then 142 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 5: they're going to start to really really narrow the focus 143 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 5: about everything that they saw there is relative to the crime. 144 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 5: You mentioned. I heard a rifle shot and why do 145 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 5: you say that, Well, because a pistol a firearm, they 146 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 5: make different noises and you can tell a pistol shot 147 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 5: from a thirty odd six. And so that was I think, 148 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 5: you know, pretty pretty interesting considering some of the tinfoil 149 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 5: hat crowd out there, right, But at the same time, 150 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 5: the Defense Council is going to make this as laborious 151 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 5: as possible. There are no rules of evidence in a 152 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 5: preliminary hearing, yet they've objected to every single objection of 153 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,599 Speaker 5: exhibit thus far based on foundation. Now let me just 154 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 5: say it for everybody. If you know your daughter or 155 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 5: a friend takes picture of your backyard, just because you 156 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 5: didn't the picture on that day, and maybe you weren't 157 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 5: even in the country on the day that picture was taken, 158 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 5: you can still authenticate a picture of your backyard as 159 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 5: a fair and accurate depiction of your backyard. And that's 160 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 5: all he was asking the officers to do. Frankly, I've 161 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 5: had Google Earth images authenticated by police officers or by 162 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 5: the owner of the wherever that the Google Earth was depicting. 163 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 5: So defense is going to make this laborious. The thing 164 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 5: about that is if they do that in front of 165 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 5: a jury, a jury will hate them because they are 166 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 5: just dragging it on, just making it hard unnecessarily because 167 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 5: all the objections are overruled and then the evidence comes anyway, 168 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 5: So we would just waste it another twenty minutes because 169 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 5: you guys wanted to jump up for some preservation of 170 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 5: the record objection that was meaningless. 171 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so do you think that this is just 172 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 3: a preliminary trial tactic, then Jay that they will. 173 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 5: Do you think that be you know, but typically you 174 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 5: just wouldn't. You know, your prelim hearing tactic and your 175 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 5: trial tactic they're about the same thing. And if we're 176 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 5: you know, if you know, history is any indicator, they've 177 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 5: objected to everything. They've been a very litigious defense group, 178 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 5: and so I don't know that they're not going to 179 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 5: object to everything on the record. Build a record because 180 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 5: they know. Here's the thing. The reason you do that, 181 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 5: the reason why you look scared is because you are 182 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 5: scared because you know there is overwhelming evidence against your 183 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 5: client and the only way to save his life is 184 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 5: to hope for an appeal and appellate court somewhere that says, 185 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 5: you know what, that judge shouldn't have overruled, that it 186 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 5: should have been sustained and YadA, YadA, and therefore you 187 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 5: got to have a new trial. Well, okay, well we're 188 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 5: just going to take a plea deal now because it's 189 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 5: fifteen years from now and some of the witnesses are 190 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 5: dead or or don't remember. It's just an old case. 191 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 5: And uh, and that's the whole that's the tactic I've 192 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 5: seen it done over and over again. There's nothing new here. 193 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 5: The evidence is overwhelming against Tyler is in the indictment, right, 194 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 5: I mean just the but the evidence itself. And we 195 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 5: haven't even heard uh from you know, the the lover 196 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 5: and and uh and the parents from Tyler Robinson where 197 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 5: admissions were likely made by Tyler Robinson. 198 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's interesting.

You know, Jay, It begs the 234 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 3: question because I saw some people mentioning this on social media, 235 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: you know, other lawyers kind of chiming in. And I 236 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 3: don't know if this is specific to Utah law, but 237 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 3: there was some people that were sort of saying, I'm 238 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: surprised they didn't waive the preliminary that the defense didn't 239 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 3: wave the preliminary hearing. 240 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: What do you make of that? Is that even an 241 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: option in the state of Utah, first of all? 242 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 6: And what. 243 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 3: Assuming that they had a choice one way or the other, 244 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 3: can you surmise tactics from either decision? 245 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 5: Well, I am I am surprised frankly that they didn't 246 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 5: waive the preliminary hearing. The prosecutor said that they have 247 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 5: received that the defense counselor has received every piece of evidence. 248 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 5: So it's not like they're just wondering is there any 249 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 5: evidence against Tyler Robinson. They've received at all. They know 250 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 5: that the evidence is overwhelming, So why air it all 251 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 5: this week when there's no not even any rules of evidence, right, 252 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 5: So anything that might be in admissible is not inadmissible 253 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 5: this week. And what's happening is the world is watching, 254 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 5: people are hearing the evidence against Tyler Robinson. No longer 255 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 5: word defense counsel will be able to hide against the 256 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 5: tinfoil hat crowd and hope that they can draw some 257 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 5: of those jurors for the actual jury try because there 258 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 5: won't be any legs for the tinfoil hack crowd to 259 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 5: stand on because it will be so overwhelming the admissions, 260 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 5: the ballistics reports, the fingerprints, the DNA, some of the 261 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 5: other evidence that likely exists that hasn't even been commented 262 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 5: on yet, and so wave it the old I mean, 263 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 5: it's not like That's the other thing is that it's 264 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 5: not like this is going to be sworn testimony from 265 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 5: eyewitnesses where they said they saw a small dog one 266 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 5: day and then on the stand they say they saw 267 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 5: a puppy and they try to make reasonable doubt out 268 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 5: of that. The hearsay is admissible. So you know, the 269 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 5: officers when they're having they conversations with other people and 270 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 5: they testify about those conversations, that would be hearsay at trial. 271 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 5: So there's really no ability to appeach on that hearsay 272 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 5: because it won't even be admissible at trial. You have 273 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 5: to actually call the witness. So again, it's just a 274 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 5: I don't know that this defense team is h is 275 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 5: the dream team. That's that's kind of the conclusion I'm 276 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 5: reaching at the moment. 277 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 4: Any thoughts, but it's just I've been expressing all this 278 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 4: bafflement to people that it seems every time there's a 279 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 4: famous trial, the rules are totally different. We obviously have 280 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 4: fifty states, but it's all just very overwhelming. So we're 281 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 4: very grateful to have you here, someone who's experienced to 282 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 4: walk us through this. I thought I've had. 283 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 2: I know. 284 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 4: They say they plan for this to take about the week. 285 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: It's going to be full days. Other than Wednesday, they 286 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 4: have a half day. Is there any chance this ends 287 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: surprisingly early or goes surprisingly long? 288 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 7: Could this go into the next week with. 289 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 5: This defense team? It's possible. I mean, the prosecution really, 290 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 5: if the judge allows things to move along, the prosecution 291 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 5: really should be done today. Most of this stuff is 292 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 5: just being entered, like the medlical exam. I mean, they 293 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 5: have to prove that Charlie Kirk did in fact die 294 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 5: and that he died from a gunshot wound, and then 295 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 5: it was deemed a homicide by the MG. So those. 296 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 5: I mean, those are all just sort of admitted pro forma. 297 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 5: A lot of these exhibits will be admitted pro forma. 298 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 5: So they should be done today, maybe first thing in 299 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 5: the morning. But this defense team that for some reason, 300 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 5: they want to drag their client through and let the 301 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 5: whole world see just how guilty he is, and you know, 302 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 5: maybe poison the jury pool. Maybe that's the only tactic 303 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 5: that makes sense here, is that they're trying to make 304 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 5: warder so hard because everybody has seen such overwhelming evidence 305 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 5: of Tyler Robinson's guilt. 306 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 4: Well, so you say they could get it all done today. 307 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 4: So for example, the Lance Twiggs statement that they have 308 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 4: that they can't cross examine, But are we going to 309 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 4: hear the whole statement? 310 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 7: Are they going to give a summary of the statement? 311 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 3: Are they just going to state the video we have 312 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 3: this and you know we'll get ideo a video interview 313 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: that they did with them. So I would presume, Jay, 314 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 3: that they're gonna show the whole thing, right, or at 315 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: least they're gonna show the. 316 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 5: Video they are, or at least play the audio of 317 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 5: it if the judge doesn't want to show it, which 318 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 5: is that's fine. 319 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 8: Uh. 320 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 5: If I'm the state at this point, every piece of 321 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 5: evidence I'm putting in because you guys are making me 322 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 5: go through this ridiculous process. You know what your client did, 323 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 5: so does he, but you want to go through it. Fine, 324 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 5: I am gonna paint the most guilty person that the 325 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 5: that ever lived for the whole world to see and behold. 326 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 5: So I'm not pulling punches if I'm the prosecution at 327 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 5: this point, you're gonna make me waste a week on this. Fine, 328 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 5: guess what your guy is gonna look like? The most 329 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 5: guilty person that ever lived? And he is, so go ahead, 330 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 5: stay to Utah. 331 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting. 332 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 3: So you think the tactics here then, And maybe I'm 333 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 3: reading into what you said, Jay, is that you know 334 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: they're gonna they're gonna make this laborious. They're gonna make 335 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 3: make it as painful as possible. Uh maybe either you know, 336 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 3: just to keep keep pushing the psychology. Uh maybe taint 337 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 3: a jury pool is Do you think that there's a 338 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: tactic here where they're trying to get. 339 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: The evidence out. 340 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 3: So that because the internet does what the Internet does 341 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 3: with this stuff and the tinfoil hot crowd as you 342 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 3: as you call them, are they banking on that do. 343 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: You think it could be. 344 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 5: I mean, they could just be banking on breaking the 345 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 5: will of the prosecution that they just don't have it 346 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 5: in the energy to fight for the Kirk family, for 347 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk, And that very well could be that they 348 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 5: that they think that, you know, maybe they'll just give 349 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 5: up and give them life without parole. 350 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 2: I don't think that's gonna happen. Yeah, it better not happen. 351 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 5: Yeah, but that I mean, you look, all these strategies 352 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 5: are losers guts. That's the thing you got to remember. 353 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 5: From the defense perspective, defense lawyer's perspective, everything they do 354 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 5: is going to cause a loss. Right, their guy is 355 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 5: gonna is gonna be found guilty and likely sentenced to death. 356 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,719 Speaker 5: So if that's the case, then I mean, what strategy 357 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 5: isn't worth trying? 358 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 2: Right? Yeah, that's a really I think that's a really 359 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: interesting point. Yeah. 360 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you when you sort of like don't have 361 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 3: the evidence on your side and there's not a whole 362 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 3: lot of outs, you're just kind of throwing stuff at 363 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 3: the wall to see if you could get the judge 364 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 3: to do something that could trigger a drag it out 365 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 3: or get it reversible on appeal. I find that like 366 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 3: a really interesting psychology for the defense to be. 367 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 7: People keep speculating that the defense might. 368 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 4: Be hoping on can we get a weirdo on the jury, 369 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 4: who's just going to who'd be open to thinking Israel 370 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 4: did this, the Trump administration did this. I imagine it's 371 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 4: basically malpractice for the lawyer to openly play to that, 372 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 4: and they don't want to end up getting disbarred, but 373 00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 4: it would that be in the back of their heads 374 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 4: that longer we drag this out, the more crazy people 375 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 4: there will be, and that could improve our odds of 376 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 4: a mistrial. 377 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 5: Well perhaps, I mean, you do broaden the pool. The 378 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 5: longer the crazies get to run around on the Internet, 379 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 5: then the more crazies there might be. But look, the 380 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 5: prosecution is going to have a team of people scrubbing 381 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,719 Speaker 5: social media, scrubbing chat rooms, everything they can get their 382 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 5: handle hands on, to be looking for anything as it 383 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 5: relates to Charlie Kirk. And there are twelve people in 384 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 5: the state of Utah that haven't formed an opinion about 385 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 5: Tyler Robinson's guilt, but also don't subscribe to the tinfoil 386 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 5: hat crowd. I guess as I'm going to continue to 387 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 5: call them because you know, I mean, they can be 388 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 5: fair minded, open minded. They have to be able to 389 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 5: subscribe to the death penalty. That'll be difficult to state 390 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 5: to Utah as well, very conservative, very religious state. But 391 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 5: here in great State Alabama, you know, we'd do it 392 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 5: on the regulars, and you know, some people can get 393 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 5: past it because justice is important. So again, the defense counsel, 394 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 5: they're going to try every single tactic. They're going to 395 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 5: try to break the will of the prosecution, and that 396 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 5: ain't gonna happen. 397 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't really see. 398 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 3: I mean, when when you've got this much evidence, right, Jay, 399 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 3: you would think that the prosecution is sort of willing 400 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 3: to go through brick walls if they have to, you know, 401 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 3: all these objections, all this procedural stuff. I mean, I 402 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 3: can't I can't imagine that they that they would be 403 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: cowed by that. All right, So we're going to go 404 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 3: back to the hearing. Jay Town, thank you so much 405 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 3: for joining.

What he put 433 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 3: in his police report very procedural, very by the book. 434 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 3: Everything feels very deliberate. These are my general takeaways here. 435 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 3: I don't see anything that's surprising yet but noteworthy certainly. 436 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 7: I mean, you see it. I was messaging a friend 437 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 7: of mine. 438 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 4: It's a little remarkable obviously it's such a high profile 439 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 4: case than when you see these police officers being asked, 440 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 4: what were you on campus for? Oh, there was a 441 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 4: guest speaker that day. Do you know the name of 442 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 4: that guest speaker? 443 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: Yes? 444 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: I do. 445 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, Well, and they are really they're laying that all out. 446 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 4: But this gets back to you want to make sure 447 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 4: everything is entirely by the book as this goes through, 448 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,719 Speaker 4: precisely because it's so high profile, precisely because there are 449 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 4: people who will seize on literally anything they possibly can 450 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 4: to we believe, help help the person we believe is 451 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,880 Speaker 4: guilty escape yet full culpability. 452 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, it's the the sort of procedural nature 453 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 3: of it is fascinating to watch. Actually, you know, so 454 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 3: you've got officer Bagley, so he says, yeah, I signed 455 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 3: up for an overtime shift for this for this event. 456 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 3: And the way that they have the exhibits so that 457 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 3: they're not displayed publicly. 458 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 2: I think this is an. 459 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 3: Interesting clip to show just to kind of go through 460 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 3: the way that, you know, the step by step process 461 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 3: that has to be followed here based on Judge Graft's instructions. 462 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 3: So he actually has to get off the witness stand 463 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 3: to go in point where he found the screwdriver, so 464 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 3: you don't actually get to see it, but he's off 465 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: camera pointing to it.

Tyler Robinson 506 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 3: was laughing with his attorney before the hearing started. Erica 507 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 3: left during the description of the show shooting. So, I mean, 508 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 3: I just think it's like important just to kind of 509 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: understand that this is you know, there's a lot of noise, 510 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 3: there's a lot of attention on this, there's a lot 511 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 3: of you know, back and forth. I'm sure some of 512 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 3: you have seen my my Twitter back and forth with 513 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 3: Candace or Blake's all that's noise, because actually, what is 514 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 3: really important here is the fact that these are human 515 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 3: beings that are dealing with this awful experience. And I 516 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: just can't imagine being in that courtroom right now, and 517 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 3: the fact that Erica has to do that and be 518 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 3: in front of all those people for something she is, 519 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 3: I mean, she's a victim here. And you know rob 520 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 3: and Catherine Kirk, Charlie's parents as well. 521 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 4: And we should know we've seen Erica has never seen 522 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 4: a video of the shooting, She's never really listened closely 523 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 4: to a description of it. She does avoid doing that, 524 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 4: and so when he says she walked out, she's walking 525 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 4: out because the officer's describing. 526 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 7: What he saw and what happened, and that's still very 527 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:12,959 Speaker 7: challenging for her. 528 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 2: Yeah.

From me, 562 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 8: but sitting in that courtroom for the first time ever, 563 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 8: facing the person that's accused of murdering you know, either 564 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 8: your spouse or your child, it takes a range of emotions. 565 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 8: It's a roller coaster ride while you sit there, and 566 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 8: to be able to maintain and keep your thought process 567 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 8: coherent is very challenging at the least. There's a million 568 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 8: different emotions that pulls you one hundred different ways. You know, 569 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 8: there's the human side of you that that sits on 570 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 8: your shoulder and whispers in. 571 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 9: Your ear the things you really don't want to hear 572 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 9: or shouldn't hear. 573 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 8: And then there's the little guy on this side of 574 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 8: the shoulder whispers in your ear and tells you what 575 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 8: you should do and what you shouldn't do, and what 576 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 8: you and who you try to be. And it goes 577 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 8: back to an old Indian story about the young lad 578 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 8: who asked the chief, you know what's. 579 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 9: Inside of us? 580 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 8: And he said, well, there's two wolves that live inside you, 581 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 8: and one live is full of hate, anger, fear, and 582 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 8: the other one is love, compassion, kindness. And the young 583 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 8: Indians said, well, which one wins? And he said the 584 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 8: ones you feed the most. So it's the same thing 585 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 8: with emotions. When you have like for forgiveness for me 586 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 8: people when because this is what happened when Erica stood 587 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 8: up there and said she forgave him, that was the 588 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 8: same exact thing I did. And my phone started blowing 589 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 8: up because they're like, oh my god. You know, she 590 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 8: just forgave him, just like you. And I said, people 591 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 8: don't understand forgiveness. Forgiveness is for me, so I don't. 592 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 9: Carry hate, anger, revenge in that inside of me. 593 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 8: You have to let that go and rely on your 594 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 8: faith because it says vengeance is mine saith the Lord. 595 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 9: So I mean you can, you can go scriptural, but realistically, for. 596 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 8: Your mental health, you really need to learn how to 597 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 8: let that go so you don't carry it around so 598 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 8: it won't eat you up like cancer. And that's the 599 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 8: reason I was able to forgive so fast, because I 600 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 8: know what I needed to do for me as a Christian, 601 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 8: and it doesn't make me any more or better or 602 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 8: less of a Christian because at this point, even my 603 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,239 Speaker 8: son cannot forgive him for what he did. 604 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 9: And I told him that's fine, you don't have to. 605 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 9: But this is a personal choice for me and a 606 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 9: personal choice with my faith that this is the path 607 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 9: that I choose to go. 608 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 3: Now. 609 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 9: I don't forgive this person for actions. 610 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 8: I mean I have to forgive him and hope to 611 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 8: God that he can repent and find Jesus Christ as 612 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 8: a savior. Doesn't take the fact the way that he 613 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 8: murdered my son doesn't take the fact away I'm still 614 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 8: human to have emotions. Don't think I'm not angry, don't 615 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 8: think I'm not sad, don't think I don't cry. 616 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 9: I mean, all these things are true, but to make 617 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,919 Speaker 9: it the final. 618 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 8: Destination of where I know I'm gonna end up beside 619 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 8: Austin at some point and then he can tell me 620 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 8: why the understanding because I don't have understanding at this moment. 621 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 8: I just have to trust God's plan because I don't 622 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 8: understand why he needed my son at seventeen. But I'm 623 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 8: also very aware there's evil in this world and it 624 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 8: does exist. And like I've always said, light always overcomes darkness. 625 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 8: So no matter what I've learned to try to tell myself, 626 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 8: this is only temporary. Whatever's happening to me is only temporary. 627 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 8: You will get through it because a saying I came 628 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 8: with a long time ago is if God brought you 629 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 8: to it, he can bring you through it. So I 630 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 8: have no idea what God has planned for me. I 631 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 8: sure didn't see this coming at all, but it does 632 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 8: reshape you. It does break you down, and it does 633 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 8: you become someone different because you're never going to be 634 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 8: the person you were before that person. 635 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 9: Is gone, and you have to learn how to live. 636 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 8: And I don't want to say a new normal because 637 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 8: I hate that phrase because there's nothing normal about it. 638 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 9: But you have to learn how. 639 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 8: What I chose to do is one of the things 640 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 8: I've learned is instead of learning to learn how to 641 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 8: live without. 642 00:35:55,320 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 9: Him, I'm going to live for him. So I'm going 643 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 9: to keep his name out there. 644 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 8: I'm going to do you know, I'll probably form a 645 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 8: five OHO one three C three and get some nonprofit 646 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 8: and organization, uh you know, all in for also Metcalf 647 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 8: Foundation or something, because I want to keep it going. 648 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 9: I want to help people out there. 649 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 8: I want to be able to uh keep the message 650 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 8: alive because I think nowadays, in today's society, the youth 651 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 8: has no impulse control, UH, de escalation skills, conflict resolution skills. 652 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 8: I think some of these things need to be taught 653 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 8: early on, even in school. I think it could be 654 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 8: a curriculum. I would love to go around and speak 655 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 8: to high school and colleges and wherever would want to 656 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 8: hear me speak upon this. I would I would love 657 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 8: to be approached so I could spread the word and 658 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 8: do something like that. 659 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 9: I mean because right now. 660 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 8: At this point, I really don't have a clue what 661 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 8: I'm going to do next with my life, and I 662 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 8: just trust God that he's going to point me in 663 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 8: the direction, you know. I mean, yes, I'm a Yes, 664 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 8: I'm a big fan of Turning Point. Yes, I was 665 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 8: a big fan of Charlie Kirk. I mean, so, I 666 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 8: mean has nothing. 667 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 9: A lot of people will say, well, you know, well 668 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 9: he was racist. He was No, he wasn't. 669 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 8: No, he wasn't if you listen to him, just like 670 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 8: you know, I was taking out of context. People can 671 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 8: take snippets and then turn it into their narrative and 672 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 8: that's and that's totally unfair. And to to misrepresent someone 673 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 8: like that, I mean, really, what kind of person are you? 674 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 9: And what are you trying to achieve? 675 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 8: Are you just out there stirring the pot, trying to 676 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 8: get clicks, trying to make a living off social media 677 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 8: or TikTok? 678 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 9: I mean, are you do? Are you do? Are you 679 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 9: actually have value that you're putting out there or is 680 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,439 Speaker 9: it really just crack? 681 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 3: Jeff, That's what I hear you saying, is you know 682 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 3: you're you want to take this tragedy and turn it 683 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 3: into and yeah, talked about talking on speaking on campuses 684 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 3: or at schools or whatever. You know, we'd love to 685 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 3: help you do that because I do think you have 686 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 3: a really important message to spread and and you know, 687 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 3: to live with that purpose, live for Austin. I find 688 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,800 Speaker 3: so much of what you were just saying, you know, I, 689 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 3: you know, Blake, and I lost somebody too, but not 690 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 3: on the level of you or Erica or Rob and Catherine, 691 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 3: but you know if I felt like I related to 692 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 3: it a lot as well, because you do kind of 693 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 3: realize that the life you had before all this happened, 694 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 3: it will never be the same, and you have to 695 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 3: live in our current moment, with our current reality. I 696 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 3: think that's something I've been reticent to accept. So even 697 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 3: hearing you say that was powerful for me to hear. 698 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 3: If you could go back in time and buy oil 699 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 3: before the world relied on it, would you? Of course 700 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 3: you would, anybody would, So why aren't you buying silver 701 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,320 Speaker 3: right now? The people who recognized oil early didn't just 702 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 3: make money, They got ahead of one of the biggest 703 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 3: economic shifts in history, and today a similar opportunity is 704 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 3: unfolding with silver. Silver is more than a precious metal. 705 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,280 Speaker 3: It's a critical resource used in solar panels, electric vehicles, 706 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 3: defend systems AI infrastructure in the massive data centers powering 707 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 3: that digital world. While demand keeps growing, it's still affordable 708 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 3: enough that the average American can start accumulating it right now. 709 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 3: That's why investors are turning to silver to protect against 710 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 3: inflation and to own one of the world's most important 711 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 3: strategic resources. Don't be the person who looks back in 712 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 3: ten years and says I saw it coming, I just 713 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 3: didn't act.

You 725 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 9: rsa fan. 726 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 8: I was a huge Charlie Kirk fan, and just to 727 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 8: be able to be on the show and talk and 728 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 8: and understand. You know, now, I'm not going to say 729 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 8: that my loss is the same as Erica's loss because 730 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 8: it's not. 731 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 9: Hers was a spouse, mine was a child. 732 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 8: But that doesn't take away from her loss or my 733 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,800 Speaker 8: loss at all, because loss affects all of us differently, 734 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 8: just like grief affects all of us differently. And there's 735 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 8: no timeline, there's no instruction, but there's no getting over it. 736 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 8: I mean, that's that's that doesn't happen. And and the 737 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,240 Speaker 8: worst thing someone can see, and I know they're always 738 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 8: trying to be nice, is you know how you doing? 739 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 9: Are you okay?

Don't ever ask me that. 741 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 8: I'm like, seriously, just I understand you don't know what 742 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 8: to say.

Just your presence tells me. 749 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 9: You're here for me. 750 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 8: That's all I need to know. There's no words that 751 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 8: are going to make me feel better. There's no words 752 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 8: that are going to make Erica feel better. That take 753 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 8: that healing, and that feeling better takes happens within us, 754 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 8: the person who suffered the tragedy. 755 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 10: Yes, we we you know. 756 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 8: I appreciate the condolences and the love and the support 757 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:54,320 Speaker 8: throughout the nation, the world, the community, my friends, my family, 758 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 8: But you still have to go through the process. 759 00:41:58,800 --> 00:41:59,959 Speaker 9: You still have to greet. 760 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 8: Then there's five phases and and and they can raise 761 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 8: their head at any time, and I can be fine 762 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 8: for a week, and then a tsunami of emotion will 763 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 8: hit me just instantly. It could be a trigger of 764 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,280 Speaker 8: a favorite song, or our favorite place, or our favorite food, 765 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 8: or just any little memory that can be triggered will 766 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 8: force you right back into that flow of emotions. Will 767 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:28,280 Speaker 8: basically you lose it. You start crying, and you know, hopefully, 768 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 8: you know you're you're in somewhere a safe space, hopefully, 769 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 8: But truth of the matter is, you know you don't 770 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 8: control this. 771 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:38,360 Speaker 9: And it's. 772 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 8: You. You try to learn how to deal with it 773 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 8: because you never know when it actually is going to hit. 774 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 8: So you just try to, you know, catch your triggers, 775 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 8: pray and you know, allow yourself to grieve. Don't try 776 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 8: to hold stuff in, let it out. If you don't, 777 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 8: I'll tell you, if you keep it inside, it's going 778 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 8: to eat you up like cancer, and you're gonna be miserable, 779 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 8: and you're gonna be bitter, and you're gonna carry grudges 780 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 8: and it's going to affect the way you raise your children, 781 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 8: the way your way, the way you talk to your spouse, 782 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 8: your boss, everything in life.

Yeah I'll never be the same. 785 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,320 Speaker 8: But I think this also gives me the opportunity to 786 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 8: become better, be better than what I ever have been. 787 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 8: Now I've got the opportunity to even step up further. 788 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 8: Now I've got the opportunity maybe to help other people. 789 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 8: Maybe I can go around and speak to people they 790 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 8: can actually make a difference. Like and I'm not saying 791 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 8: I'm Charnie Kirk, but but along those lines, he went 792 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 8: around and spoke and made a difference. 793 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 9: You know, he was amazing individual. 794 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 8: I will never compare myself to him, I can only 795 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 8: admire from Afar and try to achieve, you know, half 796 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 8: the person he ever was.

He made 799 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 8: too much sense. And that's what's the problem is for 800 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 8: the left he made he made common sense. 801 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 3: That's that's the best I've ever heard it. Actually, Charlie 802 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,919 Speaker 3: made too much sense.

Right. You think about a story, 809 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 2: you know. 810 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 3: Whether it's a movie or a book or whatever, where 811 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 3: you know, the character has to become they're put through 812 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 3: this trial and they become something different, and you know 813 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,240 Speaker 3: the character like you think about Jonah and the Whale. 814 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 3: Jonah didn't want to go, you know, to Nineveh. He 815 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 3: didn't want to know. He ran from God and he became. 816 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 3: But God forced him to sort of step into that calling. 817 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 3: Eventually he said yes to it. 818 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:06,919 Speaker 2: And I think out of the boat. 819 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 9: Yeah, And there's a ton of biblical things and people. 820 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 8: I mean there's a ton David in the Lion and 821 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 8: Peter in the boat, you know, Lazarus back from the dead, 822 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,240 Speaker 8: you know, Jesus wept.

Charlie chose to 825 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 8: incorporate into his life. Now I'm not I'm not saying 826 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,880 Speaker 8: other religions are bad or anything. It's just a personal 827 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 8: belief and who I want to be and who I 828 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,720 Speaker 8: want to reach and anyone who has the same belief 829 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 8: as me, uh, that I can reach out to, maybe 830 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 8: I can help them or help someone in a situation 831 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 8: where I can somehow be helpful inspirational guiding. 832 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 9: You know. 833 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 8: I don't won't say knowledge, but maybe that you know, 834 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 8: gives shared knowledge just so they Maybe if I can 835 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 8: reach just one person, it's a success. 836 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 9: But obviously Charlie reached millions of people. 837 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 8: If I could do just a quarter of what he 838 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 8: ever did, I would be very happy. But you know, 839 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 8: I feel parallels along with him, is just wanting to 840 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 8: be out there, spread the word, you know, and have 841 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 8: a meaningful conversation without insults and hate. 842 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 9: And threats and violence and things like that. 843 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 7: Jeff, all of this has been tremendous and credible. 844 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 4: I want to speak to one specific parallel that exists 845 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 4: between you and Erica, which besides that you've lost a 846 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 4: loved one, besides that it's a very high profile case, 847 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 4: but that it's one that unfortunately we see hateful, gleeful 848 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 4: things posted online. We talked about what a lot of 849 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 4: supporters of your son's killer were saying online, posting videos, 850 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 4: TikTok and. 851 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 7: All of that, and we see similar things with that. 852 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 4: Here we had our young Women's leadership event and there 853 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 4: was a guy with a big paper mache head of 854 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 4: Charlie re enacting his death. We see people post about 855 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 4: how happy they are that Charlie's dead to. 856 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 2: Meet Joseph as women's leaders. 857 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 4: And on the flip side of this, also, you don't 858 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 4: have this as much about the conspiracy theories about it, 859 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 4: where they say, actually Erica's not a grieving widow, she's 860 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,800 Speaker 4: a fake widow. She conspired, she's helping cover up the 861 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 4: real killers. But you're the really the closest person we 862 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,240 Speaker 4: have to someone who's dealt with something of this scale. 863 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,279 Speaker 4: Do you have a message for Erica, how you would advise, Uh, 864 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 4: overcoming the feelings this is going to cause in her, 865 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 4: h ignoring it, getting past it, just any thoughts in 866 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 4: that vein. 867 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 8: Now, So for your for your mental health, Uh, you 868 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 8: need to stay you need to stay off social media. 869 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 8: You just need to stay away from all avenues that 870 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 8: want to spew this vile hatred, misinformation, total lies. 871 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 9: Same exactly. I still to this day, I still get 872 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 9: death threats and my family still gets death threats. Now, 873 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 9: this is a very small percentage of a certain subcultural 874 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 9: demographic that is causing these issues. 875 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 8: So realistically, if you're looking at the big picture of it, 876 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 8: they're really a small portion of people. But they're soulless, 877 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 8: they have no moral compass, they don't contribute to society 878 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 8: in an effective way. 879 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,800 Speaker 9: All they want to do is obviously they don't have 880 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:42,879 Speaker 9: enough life of their. 881 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 8: Own, but they want to get involved in yours and 882 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 8: just few hate based on maybe the color of your skin, 883 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,359 Speaker 8: and that's it. And there was a man who said, 884 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 8: don't judge or judge a man bias character, not by 885 00:48:58,040 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 8: the color of his skin. 886 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 9: Pretty famous guy. 887 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 8: And I think that's a great statement because that's the 888 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 8: same way I look at people, I. 889 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 9: Don't judge you by color. I judge you by character. 890 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,760 Speaker 8: And you know, and for those who maybe are younger 891 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,879 Speaker 8: than me or didn't know who said this, Martin Luther 892 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 8: King is the man who made that quote famous, and 893 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 8: so like, again, this isn't a race thing, this is 894 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 8: a human being thing. Erica's husband was murdered, my son 895 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 8: was murdered. Those things are not going to change. To 896 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 8: accept to one, To just accept the fact is hard 897 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:44,439 Speaker 8: enough because it does seem surreal the first few days 898 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 8: it's going on. It like you're in a dream and 899 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 8: it's not really happening, but it really is. And you 900 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 8: have to figure out how you're going to navigate this one. 901 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 8: Get some professional help, find a counselor find a grief 902 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 8: group something. 903 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,840 Speaker 9: Just don't isolate. That is the worst thing you can do. 904 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 8: Get you a support network, learn what you know, Understand 905 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 8: what you're going to go through. It's not going to 906 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 8: help the pain, but it's gonna help with the understanding, 907 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 8: and that's going to help you navigate it. 908 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 9: It's not going to be easy. It's the hardest thing ever, 909 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 9: it's the most painful thing ever. But you have to 910 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 9: get through it. 911 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 8: Because I tell people you never know how strong you 912 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:37,800 Speaker 8: are until you have to be, and then you're you 913 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 8: can actually surprise yourself. 914 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 9: Examples. 915 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 8: Ten years ago, I was diagnosed with stage four cancer 916 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 8: and they told me, Jeff, if it gets below your neck, 917 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 8: we can't save you. 918 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 9: You're dead. 919 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 8: I just got faced with immortality and I have two 920 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:55,799 Speaker 8: seven year old boys hugging my legs Yell, yell, and. 921 00:50:55,840 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 9: Daddy, Daddy, please don't die.

I am old school. 1015 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 8: I respected my parents. I did not have a sentiment entitlement. 1016 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 8: I had to work for everything that was given to me. 1017 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 8: I had rules, responsibilities, chores. My parents instilled discipline in me. 1018 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 8: You know, if we were inside, we were grounded. We 1019 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 8: hated being inside. We wanted to be outside. Today's world, 1020 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 8: I'm not I mean, my generation was the last generation 1021 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 8: that grew up without cell phones, internet and social media. 1022 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 9: Greatest time in the world to grow up because. 1023 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 8: Now everything's recorded, everything's taped everything. I mean, you have 1024 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 8: no privacy. 1025 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,880 Speaker 9: You cannot do the same things I did when I 1026 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:56,359 Speaker 9: was a kid. 1027 00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 8: But today's today's youth is put under such more scrutiny, 1028 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 8: more mental health issues. I mean, I honestly believe you know, 1029 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,760 Speaker 8: when we took God out of school, it affected our society. 1030 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,720 Speaker 8: When we started giving people voices and opinions and platforms 1031 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:20,720 Speaker 8: to say whatever. 1032 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:22,800 Speaker 9: They think, and if they say it loud enough, they 1033 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 9: think it's right. 1034 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 8: And they in their mind it's a perceived reality and 1035 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 8: it's not and it's not the truth, but it is 1036 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 8: their reality. 1037 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 9: That's what they live in. 1038 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 8: And you can see how today has society has been formed. 1039 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 8: Just to go back fifty years and see how far 1040 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 8: we've come. Just go back one hundred years and see 1041 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 8: how far we've come. It's amazing. I mean, America is 1042 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 8: the greatest country. 1043 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 9: In the world, no doubt about it. But we create 1044 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 9: our own. 1045 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 8: Problems at the time, from within, from within, the outside 1046 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,479 Speaker 8: factor or not. We need to deal with what's within 1047 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 8: our borders. We need to deal with the homeless, We 1048 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 8: need to deal with the veterans, We need to deal 1049 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 8: with mental health. These are issues. But everyone wants to start, Oh, 1050 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 8: it's a gun, you know. Oh so guns are bad. No, 1051 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 8: guns are good. People are bad. Guns don't kill people. 1052 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 8: People kill people. That's what I tell people. Yes, I'm 1053 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 8: a Second Amendment person. Yes, I believe in the right. 1054 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 9: I believe in everything. Do I believe in murder? No, 1055 00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 9: it's a crime, it's a law. 1056 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 8: We have to keep our civilized normal society actions. In 1057 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 8: order you break the law, there are consequences. I told 1058 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 8: my sons this all the time growing up. You are 1059 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 8: free in life to make any decisions you own, but 1060 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,439 Speaker 8: you are not free from the consequences. 1061 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 9: So remember that. And this was a perfect example. 1062 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 8: Unfortunately it took it to the extreme in my case, 1063 00:58:55,880 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 8: but there are consequences for shoving a knife in someone's stress. Oh, 1064 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 8: Charlie's cases, that's a slam dump.
