1 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: All right, so we've got some updates in the Mark 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: Sanchez case. There was hearing yesterday. Ryan Hedrick from the 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: WIBC newsroom joins us. Now, Ryan Hedrick, Hello. 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 2: What's going on? Guys? All right for having me. 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: So what we learned yesterday? What happened? 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,319 Speaker 2: Well, we learned that the attorneys believe that Sanchez is 7 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 2: too injured to have a jury trial or even a 8 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 2: pre trial hearing in December. So the pre trial hearing 9 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 2: is scheduled for December. Second, I believe in the jury 10 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: trial is scheduled for December eleventh. 11 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, he's two injured. 12 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 2: He's two injured. He's recovering from being stabbed by the 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 2: grease truck driver Perry Toll. 14 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: But we saw him on that video that served I 15 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: think was Fox fifty nine, Yes, caught up with him. 16 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: He clearly appeared to be walking under his own power. 17 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: He was giving something resembled a statement to the Fox 18 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,319 Speaker 1: fifty nine people. That was what a week or week 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: and a half ago. He seemed pretty okay then, but 20 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: he can't go to court. 21 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: It was a two and a half minute hearing. I 22 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: watched the whole thing streamed. It was real quick a 23 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: lot of legal jargon, and after the doors swung open, 24 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: the reporters were waiting in the lobby and Dan Shachini 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: with the Marion County Prosecutor's Office was questioned about the proceedings, 26 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: and then Russ McQuaid asked him if about the injuries, 27 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,559 Speaker 2: and he said that the December date is unlikely. 28 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: Well, and I think we've kind of said from the 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: beginning that would seem relatively quick to actually have the trial. 30 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: But I mean, there's all this stuff that they got 31 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: to go through to even get to the trial, and 32 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: they're not even going to broach that for quite some 33 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: time now. 34 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: I still don't think we see Mark Sanchez in an 35 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 2: Indianapolis court room. I think the way things shake out, 36 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: he will behind the scenes negotiate. I've said this a 37 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: lot for a couple of weeks on your show. 38 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: Now. 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: I think addiction will be the center of his argument. 40 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: I think he will argue that he's addicted to drugs 41 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: or alcohol or some type of which will give him 42 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: an out in this egregious behavior that the AFFI David 43 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: says was responsible for him fighting this sixty nine year 44 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: old man. 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 1: Do you think because it's a high profile case. And 46 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: obviously the Mary Kenny prosecutor, Ryan Meers, he's allegedly got 47 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: other political aspirations that that might change things a little 48 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: bit from what they otherwise might be like if it 49 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: were Mark Smith instead of Mark Sanchez. 50 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: So you're saying, maybe Ryan Meures will just take this 51 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: all the way and say I am abandoning all other 52 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: methods of prosecution in favor of a more So, you're 53 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 2: basically saying that Mark Sanchez is going to be the 54 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: victim of Ryan Meher's political agenda. 55 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: I'm simply asking. I'm saying, you know, your ranking viile 56 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: violent offender seems to get some somewhat decent treatment in 57 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: the justicism. But we're talking about this mood. I think 58 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: there's everybody's in play with this, the judges, the prosecutor, 59 00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: the mayor's office, like, I think they're all in play 60 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: on But I do wonder if, because it is so 61 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: high profile, that maybe we'll see a little different tactic 62 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: from the prosecution and Mary Kenny than we normally. 63 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: Yes, so it would be who Ryan mehre is to 64 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: prosecute Mark Sanchez to the fullest extent of the law 65 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 2: on these on this felony on the single felony charge, 66 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: because then Republicans couldn't use the talking point that he's 67 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: just kicking people out and giving them lighter sentences. He 68 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: could point to this and everybody would be distracted by this. 69 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 2: I see the logic. I still think that he would 70 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: be hard pressed to do that. If Mark Sanchez says 71 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: I have an addiction problem, I think, I mean, if 72 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 2: his attorneys are listening, this is the best case scenario 73 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: out of this trouble that Mark Sanchez is just raise 74 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: your hand and say I'm an addict. I'm an alcoholic 75 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: and the alcohol made me do this. And I think 76 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: the Marion County Prosecutor's office would have to at that 77 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: point plead down these charges. 78 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: Two and a half minutes typical. 79 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: That seems very short. Yeah, I think so if you 80 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: have a paid attorney. So I remember being in legal 81 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: trouble for a drug possession. I was in fifteen years ago, 82 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,119 Speaker 2: and I had a public defender, and this public defender said, 83 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: we have to wait for all the private attorneys to 84 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 2: go first because they get first priority with the judge, 85 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: and these cases would be and I just I think 86 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: back to these cases, and these cases were Okay, we'll 87 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: see you like in two weeks. But when it came 88 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 2: to my case with the public defender, it seemed like 89 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: it lasted for an hour. So yeah, these private attorneys 90 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: have these deals with these judges because they have relationships 91 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: with these people. They see him on the golf course, 92 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: they see him at the bar, they seem at court 93 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: gatherings outside the courtroom. So yeah, they definitely get preferential treatment. 94 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 2: So Sanchez, he remains free on bond. 95 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: He's been permitted by the court to return home to California. 96 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 1: He will have to come back in December. 97 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 2: Though maybe, I mean that's still being negotiated. I think 98 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: what Dan Shakini said after after the court let out 99 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 2: and he spoke to the media, he said, we'll see 100 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: I don't think the December date is likely. That's exactly 101 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: what he said. So those dates are up in the air. 102 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 2: I still don't think Sanchez Sanchez ever touches down in 103 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: Indianapolis court. And I checked my case today just to 104 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: make sure. And the jury trial is still set for 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: December eleventh. The pre trial is set for December second. 106 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: One thing before let you go. Ryan Headerck from the 107 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: WBC newsroom as our guest. The photos of the victim 108 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: were made became public him in the hospital. They are 109 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: so are they appear to be so horrendous, you know, 110 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: the stabbing of his face. I kinda like, does this 111 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: make me morbid? 112 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: That? 113 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: I was like, if that happened more often, people might 114 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: tolerate these very violent offenders getting just released back into 115 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: society less like. I mean, we all saw that, were like, wow, 116 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: this is pretty vicious on this dude victim's photo. 117 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. 118 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: That's horrible to say, But would that be the determent? 119 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: Because I think that's what sticks in everybody's mind is, 120 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: look at what this Sanchez allegedly did to this guy. 121 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it looks horrible. What if that was 122 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: with everybody? 123 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 2: No, I don't think that's the case, Rob, because look 124 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: at Charlie Kirk that video. We saw him being assassinated 125 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,119 Speaker 2: at Utah Valley University. And did that stop any politicians 126 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 2: Maybe a day or so, maybe two or three days, 127 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: But that did not stop people from using political rhetoric 128 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: to kind of fan the flames of political violence. I 129 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 2: don't we see these photos all the time. The only 130 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 2: reason that Perry Told's attorneys in my opinion dropped these 131 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 2: photos is to tug at the heartstrings and get their 132 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: case emboldened. 133 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: Their charges elementor yeah, yeah, and it also probably helps 134 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: with the civil laws. 135 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: Of course, of course it does. And I'm not saying 136 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 2: that Perry Told is not injured, but propping him up 137 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 2: in a neck brace and maybe putting some I'm not 138 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 2: saying this happen, but you know in cases where this 139 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: has happened, I know people that have kind of made 140 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 2: the injuries more stand out, put vast lean on the 141 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: stores and make them glisten, you know, in the photos 142 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: that I don't know, stuff happens like that. 143 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: All right, Where can people find you?
