I think we're gonna start with some legal stuff, 3 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,319 Speaker 1: but no, no, no, no no no no no no 4 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: no no no. We're gonna drill down what we're gonna 5 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: drill down from the legal stuff. What we're gonna do 6 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: legal stuff right here in Indiana with some Indiana stuff. 7 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 2: Oh tenderloin, little mister Shooker basketball Indiana stuff. So this 8 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 2: is a story that I feel like WYBC has kind 9 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 2: of been ground zero on. Lieutenant Governor Michah beck With 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 2: is responding to a former staff members claims that they 11 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 2: all watch this AI deep fake porn video and he's 12 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: threatening a possible lawsuit now uh. Lieutenant Governor Beckworth said 13 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: his office is considering whether to pursue legal action against 14 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: former staffer Aaron Sheridan, who alleges that AI porn a 15 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: deep fake video featuring the wife of Representative Haggard here 16 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: in Indiana was shown by and two other staffers. She 17 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 2: went on The Kendall and Casey Show and spent a 18 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 2: full segment laying it all out. 19 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: Can I read the I sent this to you and 20 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: Rob at like five point thirty in the morning. The 21 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: headline because I had to get up that early because 22 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: my dog is pooping. As great, Lieutenant Governor Micah Beckwi 23 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: said his office is considering whether to pursue legal action 24 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: against the former staffer of his who alleges that an 25 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: AI deep fake video was shown by other staffers. So 26 00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: that's the headline, right, that's the headline here, and I 27 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: don't I'm not sure that it's going to work or not. No. 28 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 3: Now, keep in mind, like either the next day, maybe 29 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 3: it was the day after the Lieutenant Governor called into 30 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 3: our program and refuted all of that. 31 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: He's done it multiple times, correct, multiple calls. 32 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: The statement that he gave in regards to this story quote, 33 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: we are certainly you know, we haven't ruled it out 34 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 3: the possibility of legal action if there is something that 35 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: we could do to see where we can say, hey, 36 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 3: this deserves a pretty hefty slap on the wrist, and 37 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: then maybe we'll move forward with it. So look, I 38 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 3: am no Johnny Cochrane, right, I'm no Perry Mason here, Okay, 39 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 3: but I got to feel like there's no there there, 40 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 3: and I certainly don't think the Lieutenant Governor's camp wants 41 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: the other side looking through all of their stuff the 42 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 3: discovery phase, so to speak, to use legal stuff. 43 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: Well, only if the gloves don't fit, you're in deep. 44 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, the gloves don't fit and you're in deep. 45 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: I say you must have quit. But that's that's an 46 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: alternate version there, because keep. 47 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: In mind, this kind of feels like what happened with 48 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 3: John Gruden, the football coach. So he ultimately lost his 49 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 3: job because while the league was investigating for something else 50 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 3: during the discovery phase, they found some emails that had 51 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 3: some pretty salty language on it, to say the very least, 52 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: so that cost him his job. I'm not really sure 53 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 3: that the Lieutenant governor wants to put all of his 54 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: staff at risk in the event that there is something 55 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: and we know that there's a grand jury. They can 56 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 3: deny it all they want, but we know people who 57 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 3: have testified about a grand jury. The last thing I 58 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 3: think they want is more in the discovery process. 59 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 60 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: Maybe this is Micah just saying, you know, we're going 61 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: to say this publicly and try to stay in the 62 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: new cycle and scare boy from. 63 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: The government suing a citizen. I don't I can't imagine that. 64 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: But at the same time, where is everything now? The 65 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: only the only thing I'll talk about is Fox fifty 66 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: nine's report. There's no forensic they didn't do it forensic investigation, 67 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: which includes, you know, getting it people in there, right. 68 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: And his excuse is like, I'm not going to do 69 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: this unless there's there's hard evidence. 70 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 3: Because I'm sure somebody can find that. But it's not 71 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 3: like there are multiple copies. And I've tried to explain 72 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: this to Tony Katz because I've texted him, and I've 73 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 3: talked to Rob about this because I make some AI 74 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: stuff too, now, not to that level. I'm not making 75 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: dirty stuff that could get me in trouble Niger. 76 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: You know, I've made some AI bah and my wife's 77 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: my wife knows and her boss, her bosses. No, actually, and. 78 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 3: I'm sure they loved you in that red, white and 79 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: blue bathing city. 80 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we need to have a conversation about that. 81 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 3: When I make these videos, though, I'll make it on 82 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: my phone and I'll either post it or I'll show 83 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: you guys, and then I delete it. There's no emailing 84 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 3: of it out, there's no hard drive, So whoever made 85 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 3: that if it did exist, in the first place, probably 86 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 3: just deleted it from their phone, so it's not like 87 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: it's going to be in multiple places. I don't know 88 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 3: if there's a big trail. Does that make sense? 89 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: It makes sense. And again in this story from Fox Governor, 90 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Governor Beckwith says, I'm not going to do a 91 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: forensic like I'm not going to spend the text her 92 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: money on somebody that just is making an allegation. I 93 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: have not seen this. I've not done this. I have 94 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: not you know, I would fire anybody that would do 95 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: with this right. I know you and you to an extent, 96 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 1: Rob one hundred percent are are probably on the opposite 97 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: end of this. 98 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 3: Well, whoever made it or shared it needs to lose 99 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 3: their job. You can't do that. I mean, there's it 100 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 3: doesn't exist. I have a hard time and listen, I'm 101 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 3: not a lawyer. I can't stress this enough. 102 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: I know. 103 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 3: But that story that Aaron Shridan laid out on the 104 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 3: Kendall and Casey Show, if she is making it up, boy, 105 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 3: she went to a very extensive process to make it up, 106 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 3: like angle after angle after angle, Like I don't know, man, 107 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 3: it's a if I'm a betting man, which you guys 108 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 3: know I dabble in, I would say that yes it 109 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: exists and yes it's also gone. So do with that 110 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: as you want more Indiana stuff here. I think this 111 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 3: is good news. You know what, check that. I think 112 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: this is great news. Governor Braun has said that the 113 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: child killer that's currently on Indiana's Death Row, Roy Lee Ward, 114 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 3: will be executed as planned on October tenth. 115 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: Let it go. 116 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 3: I love for killing bad guys again. 117 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: Man, this checks me up. I'm excited for this. All 118 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: of a sudden, we found the cocktail to inject into 119 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: the bad guys. 120 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: Governor Braun denied clemency to death row inmate Roy Lee 121 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 3: Ward in an announcement earlier Monday morning. So this was 122 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: the scumbag that basically waited for the parents to leave 123 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 3: a house and he knew that a fifteen year old 124 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 3: girl was home, and he knocks on the door and 125 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 3: he says, I've lost my dog or I need to 126 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 3: use the phone, some ridiculous alibi. Fifteen year old lets 127 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: him in, He brutally sexually assaults her and then kills her. 128 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: And then the lawyers for the accused or trying to 129 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: perpetuate an autism excuse or narrative correct, and nobody's buying that. 130 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 3: And that's not new. I mean, these death row guys 131 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 3: try to throw everything they can out to save themselves, 132 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 3: which tells me that, yes, the death penalty is effective. 133 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 3: Because Benjamin Ritchie did not want to die. This guy 134 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 3: and his legal team doesn't want to die. So this 135 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 3: tells me that the death penalty is somewhat effective and 136 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 3: it's a way to get justice for those families that 137 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 3: feel like that is what they want. 138 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: For what this family wants. By the way, if you 139 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: listen to the news at the top in the bottom 140 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: of the hour on WIBC, the family wants this. 141 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 3: We spoke to d d Horran last week, whose husband 142 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 3: was the Beach Growth police officer that was murdered and 143 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: she finally got justice Benjamin Ritchie was executed. We asked 144 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: her last week, do you feel like you got justice? 145 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 3: It was an overwhelming yes. And by the way, they 146 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 3: raised over one hundred thousand dollars this past weekend at 147 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 3: their charity event kidding me yes, Southsiders Beach Growth Baby 148 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: way to show up and represent Wow. I did get 149 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 3: a direct message though, nied somebody accusing me of hypocrisy. 150 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 3: Once this story broke, they knew that I was going 151 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: to be doing a victory lap, that this bad guy 152 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 3: was going to be executed. How could you sit there 153 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: and say that Charlie Kirk had kids and a wife 154 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 3: and his death was deplorable, But yet you're going to 155 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 3: cheer for this guy. He's got a family, he's got 156 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: loved ones. It's apples and oranges here, kid. 157 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, guys, I don't know whether the family of the 158 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: victim of this person that killed her, this girl, I 159 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: don't know whether they've forgiven him or not. There's a difference. 160 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: You can forgive somebody, but you could also have justice, right, 161 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: all right, correct, and this is justice. You can forgive him, 162 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: you could say, hey, I forgive you, but there's got 163 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: to be consequences. 164 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 3: And there's a big difference here. One guy was an 165 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 3: innocent civilian. The other guy is a heinous murderer that 166 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: has been convicted and has gone through the appeals process 167 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 3: and a scheduled to be executed. Absolutely, Charlie Kirk was 168 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 3: not a heinous murderer on death row. No, it's apples 169 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 3: and oranges. So don't bring that hypocrisy crap to me.
