1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: You don't want to be an American flony back on 2 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW. There's nothing like a sleep when it's 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: pouring rain outside, so it just makes you sleep more. 4 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 1: The only problem with that is you got to get 5 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: you gotta get up right, and it was a slow 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: move today for me. Might be with you as well. 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: We have horrible news, of course with the fire we'll 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: get more than that'll bit later on in Warren County, 9 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: but also the follow up from the mass shooting at 10 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: Riverfront Live over the weekend. Nine people shot, hundreds traumatized, 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,840 Speaker 1: and the man now accused of pulling the trigger could 12 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: walk free on a fifty thousand dollars bond. He's climbing 13 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: self defense and the mayor is furious. The question, though, 14 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: is why didn't prosecutors asked to keep him locked up 15 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: in the first place? On that is attorney defense attorney, 16 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: constitutional expert and all around decent guy, Steve Gooden, Steve, 17 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: how you doing, buddy, A good good boyd SUSU. So 18 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: we got the case of Frenny Cobb. He's twenty four 19 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: years old, arrested on a single felonious assault charge in 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: connection with the shooting nine people twenty injured in the stampede. 21 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: The judge set bonded fifty thousand dollars. Cobb is a 22 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: convicted fellow illegally barred from having a firearm. He was 23 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: just in jail, got out of prison and picked up 24 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: a gun and went and shot an individual in the 25 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: crowd at this event on Saturday. He's had two prior 26 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: weapon under disability convictions before the shooting, including one just 27 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: a year ago, and only served twelve months before his release. Steve, 28 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: at what point does the systems repeated leniency in this 29 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: whole restorative justice thing and bail reform towards an armed 30 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: repeat offender across judicial discretion into just absolute negligence Because 31 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: it feels like this is negligent to me. 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 2: Well, look, this was a complete failure of the system 33 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: on multiple levels. And there's a lot to unpack here, 34 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: but one thing I do want to make clear, thank god, 35 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: that looks as of the US Attorney's Office has stepped 36 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: in with federal charges. They slapped what's called a federal 37 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: holder on these two gentlemen, both of whom I guess 38 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: there was a straight up gun battle the you, and 39 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: it looks as though that they're not going anywhere thanks 40 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: to the intervention of the FBI and the US Attorney's office, 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 2: so that at least, you know, they have rectified the situation, 42 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: at least from the moment they are facing federal weapons 43 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: churages now that they could carry up to fifteen years each. 44 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: So that's good news. The bad news is, you're right, 45 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: there's no way either of these guys should have been 46 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: getting out on any kind of a low bond. And 47 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 2: you know, the saying is, you know, a success as 48 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: many fathers, but failures and orphans. Here the failure has 49 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: many many fathers. It looks as though the prosecutors and 50 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 2: the police officers look forward with a single count of 51 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: coolonious assault. It looks clear to me that at this 52 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 2: point they know there was a gun battle, but there 53 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: seems to be a no nine people shot, twenty others injured, 54 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: but there seems to be a lack of clarity at 55 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: this point in the investigation as to who shot whom. 56 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: So it looks as though they threw this kind of 57 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: placeholder charge out. That was mistake number one. You know, 58 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: it didn't carry the gravity or really communicate the gravity 59 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: of what happened. And then number two we do have judges, 60 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: and I've dealt with this judge before, Bernard Monday. He's 61 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 2: actually overall a really good judge. But there are a 62 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 2: lot of judges in this courthouse right now that have 63 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 2: this ideological bent. They don't believe in cash bond. They 64 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 2: think it's unfair that people like you and I who 65 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: have means, if we are accused of a crime, that 66 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: we can go get a put our house up, or 67 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: have access sell stock and post a bond. They think 68 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 2: it's fundamentally unfair that people who don't have means are 69 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: being held in jail. It's an ideological thing that has 70 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 2: nothing to do whatsoever with the facts of a case. 71 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: And it got so bad in Hamilton County. If you 72 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: recall about three or four years ago, Judge Megan Shanahan, 73 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 2: he's now in the High Supreme Court, actually put forward 74 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: a statewide issue requiring judges to consider public safety is 75 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: an issue in the posting or setting of cash bonds 76 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: in addition to their ability to pay, which is like 77 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 2: sort of the progressive democratic focus. It's always the ability 78 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: to pay, not public safety. So there's a requirement these 79 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: judges have. It's in the Ohio Constitution. Now imposed by 80 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: the voters that they should look at public safety above 81 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: all else, and that clearly just didn't happen here. So 82 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: a fifty thousand dollars bond conceivably posted, you know, a 83 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: ten percent, which is the standard I thing here. So 84 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: someone could post five thousand dollars cash of walk out 85 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: on some sort of an ankle bracelet. You know, that's 86 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: a really bad, bad thing. And you know, back when 87 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: I was a prosecutor, we viewed this very very differently 88 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 2: twenty years ago. Not only were you trying to protect 89 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: the public, but you also wanted to protect the defendant 90 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 2: because you know, in the in the immediate aftermath of 91 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,559 Speaker 2: some big public shooting like this, you know, there tends 92 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 2: to be victims' families looking for them too. It's in 93 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: society's interests. They were interested everyone for them to sit. Look, 94 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 2: if there's something flawed about this case and it turns 95 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: out that got the wrong guys, you know, this will 96 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: be presented at the grand jury within ten days. 97 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 3: Anyway, they'll be out of the worl thing. 98 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: That happens here is that someone who is credibly accused 99 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: of a mass shooting sits in jail for ten days 100 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: while the authority sorted out that's something that is not 101 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: offensive to our system, or to society or anything of 102 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: the sort. And it's just common sense. And this is 103 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: the kind of stuff again that makes people look at 104 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 2: this and shake their head. And it's fascinating to me 105 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: that even the mayor. Wait, and the mayor is out there. 106 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: The mayor was somebody who was really really bragged about 107 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: remaking the carhouse and pushing these things and then attacked 108 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: cash bonds and look. 109 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: I remember that that isn't that irony. I don't want 110 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: to say delicious, because you know this is such a 111 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: serious crime. Steve Gooden, But here's a guy who campaigned 112 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: on restorative justice bond reform. We've got to be better, 113 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: a gentler. We can't punch down, we've got to treat 114 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: people better. Okay, great, And now he's in the podium saying, 115 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: how the hell could this person get out in the 116 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars buck It's because you and I said 117 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: progressive push for this, That's all. 118 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that's absolutely read. I read this quote, Diomas. 119 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: You know, I think I still have a cell phone 120 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: here somewhere else. Was going to text it it welcome 121 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 2: to the party now, like we will have been saying 122 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: this for years, and look, this is just in This 123 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 2: is one of those things that's been out there for 124 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: about ten to fifteen years on the progress among progressive 125 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: politicians that drives people, not just one of these things. 126 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: It's an article of faith on that side. 127 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 3: And you know, like the way I try to explain. 128 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 2: It to my my democratic friends is like this, and 129 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 2: like you know how in seeing some people feel when 130 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: you talk to a hardcore conservative and say, guys, look, 131 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: we believe in gun rights, but we don't you think 132 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 2: we should have some gun control. Maybe you shouldn't be 133 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: able to carry an A forty seven out in public 134 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: or AK forty seven in public, and they say, no, no, no, no, 135 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: it's got to be it's all or nothing. That's how 136 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: Democrats sound when you win common sense. People talk about 137 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: balbell or form. Well, it's just fundamentally unfair that rich 138 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: people can postpond and well, no, actually, when you look 139 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: at the facts of the matter, when someone commits a 140 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 2: violent offense, there ought to be an ability to hold 141 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: on to them. And frankly, in the federal system there 142 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 2: is no cash bond. You have what's called a detention 143 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: hearing where a magistrate, a federal magistrate, looks at the 144 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 2: facts of the case and if you're caught with a 145 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: bunch of drugs or guns. 146 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 4: You're going nowhere. 147 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: You have no opportunity to postpond. It's been like that 148 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 2: in this country for two hundred and thirty four years 149 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: in the federal system, and the country hasn't fallen apart, 150 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 2: and it's not some grave injustice. So the idea that 151 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: we're even we're just playing with ourselves in state courts 152 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: over this stuff. Ideologically, at all they're doing is they're 153 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: cycling more people out to hurt others get killed, and 154 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: it's just bad. 155 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: Well it's a good here, but it's really bad here. 156 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 157 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 158 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: And there's some judges out there I mentioned names Silverstein, 159 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: ordation and order, banning objections, doring bond rulings, which is 160 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: just absolutely I don't even know if that's legally permissible. 161 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: The mont Is Merriweather thing. We bonded out on a 162 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: weapon's disability charge and participated in the downtown brawl. The 163 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: Chiefs of Police Association wants to have roundtables. The judges 164 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: refuse to participate in that. They feel the bold and 165 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: to continue this pattern that puts the public in serious, 166 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: serious jeopardy. And that's back, of course by people like 167 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: mayor Pirival who now wants to undo this and go, well, 168 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: maybe this was a bad decision. With admitting it was 169 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: a bad decision. The judge judge in this case you mentioned, 170 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: Judge Mundy said a bond Steve good than fifty thousand 171 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: dollars in a single full on a's assault charge to 172 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: the shooting on Saturday at Riverfront Live. He said, look, 173 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: my hands are tied by the charging decision, says that's 174 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: the max. That's all I can do. Did you have 175 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: any more discretion, broader discretion, or you just chose not 176 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: to exercise it. 177 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: Well, I it's arguable I would say that I think, 178 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: But I think he did. I mean, look, I mean 179 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 2: he is checked. He is correct. They put forward a 180 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 2: single case of a flows assault, not the nine charges 181 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: or however many this guy hit. They didn't also charge 182 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: him with any of the gun offenses for whatever reason, 183 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: which would have justified a higher bond. So they did 184 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: put the judge here in a kind of a bad place. 185 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: Why they made those decisions at this early stage, I 186 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe they're waiting on additional ballistic evidence. I 187 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: don't know, but it sounds pretty clear to me they 188 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: were able to put a gun on this guy's hand 189 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 2: and that there should have been charges put there. So 190 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 2: that's correct. But I want to zone back in on 191 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: this public safety piece and if the judge could have, 192 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: in my view, argued and found that because of the 193 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: nature of the overall incident, that there was a true 194 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 2: public safety issue and that that justified a higher bond. 195 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: And what's going on in that arrangement room all the time? 196 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: We're having judges who are deviating from this public safety requirement. 197 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 2: And because the bond issue is usually washed through the 198 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: system so quickly, because we have what we call a 199 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: rapidan divement grand ury system. When all the felonies and 200 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 2: serious charges are dealt with in about ten days and 201 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: you have a new judge and it takes over, there 202 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: really is no effective way for the state to appeal 203 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: these bad decisions. And frankly, now we have a situation 204 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: where you have the prosecutor's office and all the judges 205 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 2: who were sort of on the same page it seems 206 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 2: ideologically anyway, But if the prosecutor wanted to appeal. Effectively, 207 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 2: they're not really going to have time. These judges are 208 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: smart enough to know that, so they're really not posting 209 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 2: these high bonds for their ideological reasons, it seems to me. 210 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 2: I mean, again, I don't know, but I mean we're 211 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: seeing you know, they're campaigning on these sorts of things 212 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 2: that made public statements. 213 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 4: To this effect. 214 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 2: So you're right. I mean, Bernard Muddy was put in 215 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: a very bad position, I think by the charging decision, 216 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: but he could have deviated, as I understand it, under 217 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: Ohio law and put a really high bond on this 218 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: because there are clearly more charges coming, no question. And 219 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: again the Feds didn't mess around with it. And I 220 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 2: think that is the other really interesting thing here because traditionally, 221 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: but the US Attorney's Office would work with the state 222 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: attorney's office citing which case is to take, and here 223 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: it looks as though from everything I have heard, that 224 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 2: the US Attorney's Office and the FBI at HTF just 225 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 2: came in unilaterally and said, no, we're taking we're taking 226 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 2: this away because this isn't right. 227 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he is an attorney. Former prosecutor Defenser Steve Good 228 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: on the show on seven hundred WLWD news yesterday that 229 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: the individual, one of the individuals responsible for the mass 230 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: shooting at Riverfront Live on Saturday, or left nine people 231 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: shot and hundreds traumatized, could walk f in a fifty 232 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: thousand dollars bond that was posted yesterday by Judge Munday 233 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: in his court and said, listen, that's all I can do. 234 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: Even have avs had pureval and other Democrats backpedaling on 235 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: the issue of restorative justice, because this is what it 236 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: looks like. You know, it's one thing to cite someone 237 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: or penalize someone and set a high bond because they've 238 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: got a bag of weed. But when you hire a 239 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: violent predatory criminal with a track record, that person needs 240 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: to be locked up and knocked up sooner rather than later. 241 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: In that regard, there's kind of an I don't know 242 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: if it's a loophole or not. Steven, Maybe this supplies 243 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: with our standard ground law. Not sure, but take me 244 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 1: through the fact that the shooter on Fountain Square, we 245 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: sim shoot the two individuals at Citybird Chicken on Fountain Square. 246 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: That person was let out because the claimed it was 247 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 1: self defense at the two inside the store, and the 248 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: video inside City Bird backed up that the I think 249 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: the seventeen and eighteen year old, if im not miss, 250 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: their nineteen year old pulled guns out and we're going 251 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: to shoot him through the glass while they were sitting 252 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 1: having chicken at a restaurant, and Fountain Square with a 253 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: bunch of people around, said it was self defense. This 254 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: guy was prohibited from having a weapon because he is 255 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: already convicted in this case. You've got individuals here who 256 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: both had a jacket on them that prevented them from 257 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: having a weapon, and yet they get around to turn 258 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: around and claim self defense. Do we kind of like 259 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: have a pattern of a loophole here? 260 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 2: What a little bit now, I think frankly, I heard 261 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: this too. I saw this on the news, and I 262 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: actually watched a club of the video. This guy's lawyer, 263 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 2: the Urpront Live shooter, he is going to claim self defense, 264 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 2: but of course, as you point out, he is legally 265 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: barred from having a firearm, and it is exactly like 266 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 2: what happened to Fountain Square. Now it looks as though 267 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 2: on Fountain Square they are still pursuing at least felony 268 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: charges against the individual for having the firearm to begin with, 269 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 2: even though it looks as though he did establish a 270 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 2: right to self defense, and some of that, you know, 271 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: you're a standard ground in Ohio, actually make self defense 272 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 2: claims easier to assert, I guess because you don't have 273 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: a duty to retreat anymore. That's really all the change, 274 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 2: and it's very fact specific to every case. But here 275 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: in the Riverfront Live situation, I mean, the idea that 276 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 2: this guy that there were multiple individuals going into this 277 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 2: what I'm told was a private party with five or 278 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 2: six hundred people getting in there with firearms, both of 279 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: whom were legally barred from owning the firearms and having 280 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 2: them on their body. I mean, that's unfortunately that doesn't 281 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: under a highalog go to self defense piece that they 282 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: will both base some charges. And it looks as though 283 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: the federal prosecuted US attorney is focusing on the weapons aspect, 284 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 2: at least initially in the charges that he is bringing 285 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: in federal courts. So it looks as though at least 286 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 2: the system is correcting itself in this instance on this 287 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 2: But that is like that is the heart of the 288 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 2: problem that we're seeing in Cincinnati, which is convicted felons 289 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 2: carrying guns with impunity and it not being taken very seriously, 290 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 2: in the state courts, we. 291 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: Spent like six million on what they call targeted community 292 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: alternatives to prison. It's a program, another program, more programs, 293 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: I swear to God, but and it's designed to divert 294 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 1: follow the offenders away from incarceration. Someone with the Cobbs 295 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: record cocaine trafficking, two weapons under disability convictions is I 296 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: don't understand how you're a candidate for diversion of that 297 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: guy who decides why he would be eligible for diversion. 298 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: How does that work? 299 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, typically it's a it's a judicial decision 300 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 2: where the prosecutor's office does sign off and they what 301 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: they look at or non violent offenses, and for better 302 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: or worse, by and large, under Ohio law, merely possessing 303 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 2: the gun but not using the gun is considered, you know, 304 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 2: non violent. I mean they're looking at they're looking as 305 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 2: someone who actually has pulled the gun on someone or 306 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: who has attacked someone. And and the kind of drift 307 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: of where the system is right now, not just in 308 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: Cincinnati but statewide is to look at drug offenses in 309 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: sort of a more forgiving way. And I mean there's 310 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 2: there's certainly an argument to that effect. But what the 311 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: way I always looked at it, and the way we 312 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: looked at it back in the day when I worked 313 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: in the Prosecutor's office under very different administrations, is we 314 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 2: looked at drug users and addicts in a very different 315 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 2: light than we looked at drug dealers, because we saw 316 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: drug dealers as folks who tended to be armed, who 317 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 2: were capable of violence, whether they had committed violence in 318 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 2: the offense or not, and that they were profiting off 319 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: the misery and addiction of others. So we always looked 320 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: at those folks very differently, and I think that has 321 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: eroded over time, and now just drug offenses generally are 322 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 2: looked at by a lot of the judges and a 323 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 2: lot of the prosecutors, not just here but statewide. It's 324 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 2: just being well, it's just part of the overall drug problem, 325 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 2: quote unquote, And I think we would all be better 326 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: served as society to look at if you had the 327 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: way we looked at it at Grand Jury, is drugs 328 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 2: and you're using and drugs in your system, you know, 329 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: maybe that's somebody that does need to be diverted into 330 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: a treatment scenario and not have their lives ruined. Drugs 331 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: plus a gun and the drugs are packaged in a 332 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: certain way, that's the guy that that's the guy that 333 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 2: deserves to go to prison because he's profiting from it. 334 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: And that kind of common sense sort of analysis is 335 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: sort of followed by the wayside over the years. 336 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: From what I yeah, no question, Sarah Heringer, Patrick's widow 337 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: is pushing a law that would require real time ankle 338 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: monitor data and making cutting one off an automatic felony. 339 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: And it hasn't passed. But if that had been on 340 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: the book with his murder, Mordecai Black want to say, 341 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: Patrick Herringer, does the same logic apply to supervision of 342 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: repeat gun defenders post release like this? 343 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: You know it should. And I'll tell you I think, 344 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: you know what, if if we had a probation officer 345 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 2: here on the phone with us and he was given 346 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: some truth surm, I think they would tell you that 347 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: the technology and the funds just aren't there at the 348 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: county level to really monitor these ropes. And I got 349 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 2: to know Sarah unfortunately pretty well through all this, and 350 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 2: I can tell you that you know that there were 351 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: many many failures. There There were personal failures, but there 352 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 2: was a system's failure. There's a technology failure. We have 353 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 2: the ability to to do real time I'm monitoring both 354 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 2: on probation and then hurt the situation. Unfortunately, with Mortecai 355 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 2: Black on parole, a's just we don't as a society 356 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: spend the money there, we don't staff these things the 357 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 2: right way, and we just have not made it a priority. 358 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 2: And that's a shame because if we are going to 359 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: let people out and have these ankle monitors, they ought. 360 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 4: To be able to work. 361 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 2: And really it's the same technology they've had since the 362 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 2: mid nineties. 363 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 3: And you're right, you can. 364 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 2: Take a kitchen knife and cut one of them off. 365 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: You were so sure, So it's no way to do that. 366 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, the idea that we don't have the technicians to say, 367 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: I mean, I've got an Apple watch right now and 368 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: it'll sell you know, it'll wear it at night. You know, 369 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: it'll tell you your quality sleep, will tell you how 370 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 1: much you're sleeping, You'll tell you if you're snoring, if 371 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,479 Speaker 1: you tell if you're an a FIB, give you an 372 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: EKG and do all these amazing things. You need to 373 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: tell me that the technology doesn't exist to go, hey, listen, 374 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: if you cut this thing off instant alarm bells go off, 375 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: or in the case of a gunfelm like this, maybe 376 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: they need one that uses that technology that would sense 377 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: if that individual shoots a firearm and it autumn adically 378 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 1: goes off, and said, this person who is prohibited from 379 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: having a firearm just shot one off, you go and 380 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: arrest the guy. How hard is that? I don't think 381 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: it's that hard. But we've got to have the political 382 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: will power, of course, to do these things. He is 383 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: Steve Gooden, attorney at law, former prosecutor around Defense. Steve 384 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: all the best, Thanks again for coming on the show anytime. 385 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: Scott take care always got great legal analysis for us. 386 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,479 Speaker 1: Here it's it's mindless and you know, to show you 387 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: the problem that I have with politics as a no nonsense, straightforward, 388 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: common sense kind of guy, a political if you will, 389 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: that this is a great example of progressives and Democrats 390 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: talking out of both sides of their mouth that you 391 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: know you have afted Pureval and other progressives who ran 392 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: on the whole doctrine of restorative justice and bond reform. Well, 393 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: this is what it looks like. These are the effects 394 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: of that that these guys get out and just commit 395 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: crime after crime. Because some people you can't reform. Actually 396 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people you can't reform. Why give them 397 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: a second, third, or fourth chance. It's to throwing lives. 398 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: The blood is on their hands, on their hands. I'll 399 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: switch up in a second here, and there's another speaking 400 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: of politics in the Square Guard. The same thing is 401 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: kind of happening. You know, in an election, there was 402 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: a lot made about you know, transgender people in bathrooms, 403 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 1: in that stuff. There's not enough of them to cause 404 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: the problems that were indicated during the election. But I 405 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: got an example of, you know, turning the tables around 406 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: here of that happening actually in Warren County in a 407 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: very very serious, disgusting case that had this been someone 408 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: that fit that category, you would hear more about it. 409 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: But instead it's just a sad case. It faded away. 410 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. If you don't, I'll 411 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: explain next seven hundred W slony on seven hundred WLW rainy, rainy, 412 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 1: rainy rain never gonna end. I don't think so so 413 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: much going on in the world today, of course, And 414 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: just had Steve Gooden on Great Attorney and when it 415 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: comes to you know, constitutional issues and those big questions 416 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: he's fantastic at that stuff. Always enjoy talking to him 417 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: and learning a little bit more as I I often 418 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: do every time to talk to somebody smarter than I am, 419 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: which is maybe ninety nine point nine percent of the time. 420 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: I've talked about and we've talked about the shooting, of 421 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 1: course at Riverfront Live or yeah, Riverfront Life over the weekend, 422 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 1: and the fact that you know, those in the progressive 423 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: community and my progressive friends really wanted balan bond reform. 424 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: And I get where that came from back in the day, 425 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 1: because you know, before the people took over and added 426 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: some common sense to marijuana. Where we are now will 427 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: common sense legislation. We've you know, we've reduced the number 428 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: of people are getting locked up for that kind of stuff, 429 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: and I think we should. I think that their offenses 430 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: and most defenses out there, if you thinking are things 431 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: are like, okay, what can we set a reasonable bond 432 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 1: here for someone? I don't have a problem with reasonableness, right, 433 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm a pretty reasonable guy. But I'm sorry, but when 434 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: you pick up a gun or a knife, but particularly 435 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: a gun, I think that really narrows your your options. 436 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it should be as much as they 437 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: talked about how bad mandatory were that totally took away 438 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: judicial discretion, the pendulum, as always does in America, has 439 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: swung the other way, where you almost are your hands 440 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: are tied in a sense that you can't do anything 441 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: but offer a slap on the wrist, as opposed to 442 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: real punitive outcomes for people who commit gun crimes. I mean, 443 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: explain me. You do it once, you take someone's word 444 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 1: at it, going okay, I'm gonna let you out, but 445 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: you promise not to do it again. Yeah, you promise, yeah, yeah, yeah, 446 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, pinky promise. And then they go and 447 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: do it again. And then you go on and you 448 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: promise this time, it's not going to three four times. 449 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: It just it doesn't make any sense. And so you're 450 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: married to this whole ideological notion that people are inherently good, 451 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 1: and I think I think in a lot of cases 452 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: that's true. But you've got to judge on an individual basis. 453 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: If you decide you're going to pick up a gun 454 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: and commission of a fellow me, and you look at 455 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 1: the scope of why they did that to get money 456 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: to settle some sort of wacky street beef, you slapping 457 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: them on the wrist is not going to change them. 458 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: That's not a wake up call for them because they 459 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: simply don't care. And it's not ninety nine percent of 460 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: the population. It's one percent of the population or less 461 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: that does this. So why can't we get why can't 462 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: we admit, like, yeah, bail and bond reform when it 463 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: comes to offenses, like this is a bad idea, and 464 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: everyone Steve Gooden, who ran for offs many others, told 465 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: people it's a bad idea, and yet voters decided to 466 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: go with the status quo. And now you've got after 467 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: have Pureval, who really pushed the idea of this when 468 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: he was campaigning and being progressive, is now going this, 469 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: this is not good. So he's admitting it without admitting it, 470 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: if you will. Now I did mention too not to 471 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: belabor that this topic we've been talking about, because it's 472 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: just so just so incendiary to think that these people 473 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: could be out and committing these crimes again in the 474 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: blood literally is on the hands of the judges and 475 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: the individuals who push these policies. But I will point 476 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: out something else that just happened because politics, as I've 477 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: been talking about, and this is why I hate politics. 478 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: It's all about exploiting someone for votes. It doesn't matter 479 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: if it's true or not. So how's the ideal of 480 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: ball reform and restorative justice working out? Not good? Well, 481 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: then there's this on the other side, And ask yourself 482 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: if this person were transgender or an illegal alien, but 483 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: mainly transgender, would this have been a much much bigger story? 484 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 5: Yes? 485 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: Or no? Here's the story. The guy's name is Robert Dewis. 486 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: He's thirty seven years old. He's been indicted on charges 487 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: of rape, growth, sexual and position, abduction, and kidnapping in 488 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: Warren County by David Fornshaw, an excellent prosecutor. By the way, 489 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: he sexually assaulted a girl thirteen year old girl in 490 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: the bathroom of a five below store in South lebanon 491 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: February six. He was released from prison seventy two hours 492 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: before he committed this awful, despicable crime. So the story 493 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: of the narratives. The child's mom is in the store. 494 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: They're shopping. She sends to the changing room. I guess 495 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: to go try some clothes on. She left to grab 496 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: a different pair of pants. The mother had locked the 497 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: bathroom and arranged a special knock, so she knew it 498 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: was mom and not someone else. Well, Deuise was standing 499 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: there and heard what the knock was, and then as 500 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: she turned her back, he went and knocked on the door, 501 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: and so he went in there, and the girl screamed, 502 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: which they called the lions War, which I did not 503 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: know what that was, so I looked it up. It's 504 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 1: the way they're teaching kids to react in a situation 505 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: like this is to scream. Deuise flees. He was later 506 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: arrested at a relative's home. He had already the grand 507 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: jariy doesn't he made a sexually violent predator because the 508 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: victim was thirteen years old and there's a prior conviction 509 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,719 Speaker 1: five years ago in Fairfield County for the sexual assault 510 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: of a childhooder thirteen. The judge, how about this in 511 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: Warren County held him. He's being held on a seven 512 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: hundred two thousand dollars cash only bond. He's got to 513 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: put up seven hundred, two thousand dollars and he's being 514 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: arraigned today as a matter of fact, seven hundred. If 515 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: this or Hamlin County judge, he'd probably be it'd be 516 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: an a war bahn, right, he'd be on his own recognity. 517 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: You promise not to do this again. Oh yeah, yeah, okay, 518 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: go ahead, here you go when I will give you 519 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: an ankle monitor, but we know you'll cut it off. Here, 520 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: here's pair of scissors. Good, good luck with that. If 521 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: that were Hamlin County, Warren County, f around and find out. 522 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: But I'm gonn getting off in the weeds here, as 523 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 1: I often often do, had this if so the story 524 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: it was a big story of people like, oh, that's awful, 525 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: But it wasn't a big story. It was a horrible 526 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: story that has already been bumped from the headlines. 527 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 3: Now. 528 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: I asked at the beginning, you know, if you're a conservative, 529 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: ask yourself if this person were transgender, would be a 530 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: much bigger story. And the answer is absolutely it would. 531 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: Because it would absolutely it'd validate everything we heard in 532 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: the last election cycle. And I think that's the problem 533 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: I have with politics, is you will twist the truth, 534 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: you'll take things out of context. Look, you know, to me, 535 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: I don't if you're transgender, I don't want. I don't 536 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: think it's right for you to play on if you're 537 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: a man playing out a women's sports team, it's unfair Okay, 538 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: if it's a a locker room, I think that's probably 539 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: more weird for the trans person than it is for 540 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: the individuals in there. But I can see a point 541 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: there when it comes as a bathroom, everybody has the 542 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: poop and pee, Like you don't have a choice. You 543 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: have a choice to play sports, right, you have a 544 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: choice to play being a locker room, you don't have 545 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: a choice to go to the bath Everyone goes to 546 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: the bathroom regardless of what kind of plumbing you handed 547 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: either God gave you. And if you think that God 548 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: and only God, and that's fine, it's that's your core belief. 549 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,719 Speaker 1: I respect that, I fight for that. I'm with you, 550 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 1: But clearly your core belief is not someone else's. And 551 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 1: that's the problem that you know, I've been going to 552 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: a public restroom now for most of my adult life. 553 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 1: I don't I have never, ever, ever known the sexual 554 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: orientation of the person next to be in the urnal 555 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: Like you don't check, you know, meet, I'm not about 556 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: to meet gaze in a public restaurant. If you want 557 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: to be a meat gazer, that's on you. If you're 558 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: a woman, you're in a stall, how would you know 559 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: if you're in a stall. What the genders of the 560 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 1: person that you don't know? And the idea is that 561 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: well they're you know, they get in the restroom and 562 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: then this is what happened. If this again were a 563 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: transgender individual who rape this girl at the five below 564 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: in Lebanon, it would be a national talking part, right, 565 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: it would be Fox News, News, Mats, all the conservative 566 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: right leaning platforms would be all over this thing. But 567 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: this is like, oh, it's what a horrible story. I 568 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: hope they and this sob This bastard should get wh 569 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: he gets in prison. I think the inmates take care 570 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: of this guy as well. He should. 571 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 6: And we know that. 572 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: You know, the crime data and research about sexual assaults 573 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: and restrooms, which is extremely rare, or public spaces for 574 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: that matter, the vast majority are sis gender men, right, 575 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: those are straight men. If you look at the FBI 576 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: crime data over the years, over ninety nine percent of 577 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: all convicted sexual offenders in the US fall into this category. 578 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: Documented cases of restroom sexual assault most commonly involved cisgender 579 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: male perpetrators targeting women or children, voyeurism, hidden cameras, stuff 580 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: like that. It's generally straight men. I mean, it's not 581 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: generally it is pretty much all straight men. So and 582 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: actually the exact obbet is true. Sexual violence committed by 583 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: someone known as the victim is more likely, but transgender 584 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: people more likely be the victims of these types of 585 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: assaults as opposed to the perpetrators of them. Like you know, 586 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: as someone who is close to being libertarian than anything 587 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: on the station, Like, I don't really care if you're 588 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: happy to being that person. It doesn't hurt me at all. 589 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: It doesn't threaten my masculinity, doesn't. 590 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 4: You know. 591 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: It's America, God bless America. It's a country where you 592 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: can be what you want to be. Oh my god, 593 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: the morals and you have no morality. It's like morality 594 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: is relative, right, I mean, look at look at the 595 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: twisting that Christians have done and compromised values or core beliefs, 596 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: and just in the last five years alone. So you know, 597 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: you can twist if you could twist anything to fit 598 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: your own belief narrative. So in this case, like I 599 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: just I simply don't care if you're happy being that 600 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: good for you. The world is a miserable place, not all, 601 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: but it feels that way, right, So I look at 602 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: it and go, Okay, you're happy being you. I have 603 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: a lot of questions. I don't understand it, but I 604 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: support you. As long as there's no one is being victimized, 605 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: that's all I care about. There's no victims in that 606 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: if you decide to do that to you. And I 607 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: think the other thing is true with children. I you know, 608 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: not a lot of young young people are having these 609 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: types of surgeries, nor should they because I think, you know, 610 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: maybe by the time you're fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, if 611 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: it's pretty clear that's who you are. But again, at 612 00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's up to the parents. 613 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: That the state takes over and tells the parents and 614 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: doctors what to do. I don't again, we have the 615 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: writers Americans to screw our kids up. There's no shortage 616 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: of of wacky adults because parenting is an imperfect science. Well, 617 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: you're maiming and new Well, okay, if you're maiming them, 618 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: I mean we have we have medical boards that oversee that. 619 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: And I would say, oh, well, isn't circumcision doing that then? 620 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're going to split hairs, is there 621 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: any medical reason for circumcising boys? 622 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 2: No? 623 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: So why do we continue doing that, that's general mudulation. 624 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: To me, it's the same thing as long as you're 625 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: not abusing your kid and trying to make that abuse 626 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: when it's a thought out decision, a different story entirely. 627 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: It's between you and your physician. Like people screw their 628 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: kids up all the time, we we do a really 629 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: good job at screwing our kids up. I don't know 630 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:49,959 Speaker 1: if that screws them up or not. I don't know, 631 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: but that doesn't harm me, and I guess in this case, 632 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: I look at it going, well, here's after that Pure 633 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: Vault and other progressives in Cincinnati that have fought for 634 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: better reform and in particular what they call restorative justice, 635 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: and it's led to while the shooting at Riverfront Live 636 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: shouldn't have happened, nine people are are shot today because 637 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: the policies are well, we got to be kinder to criminals, 638 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: to criminals, okay, these are violent, predatory criminals. No, we 639 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: still have to you cut your ankle, mon or off. 640 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: It's fine. And look at the bloody history here, whether 641 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,959 Speaker 1: it's Mordecai Black with Patrick Harringer, the shooting in front 642 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: of City Bird on Fountain Square, the downtown brawl now 643 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: we have Riverfront Live and it's on and on and on, 644 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: and we just treat these perpetrators, these predators with kid gloves. 645 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: On the other side, we have this straight man who 646 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: raped a girl in a in a store changing or 647 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: a bathroom, I guess it were. And had that been, 648 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: you know, one of these parties we're talking about, it'd 649 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: be a different story. In time to be national news. 650 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: A crisis, we have to pass laws, but it doesn't 651 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,479 Speaker 1: fit in there, and that it probably happens every day, sadly. 652 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: But that's what I hate about poultice. The exploitative nature 653 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: of it is that you have to essentially what's your 654 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: core beliefs around and say you have core beliefs when 655 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: you don't to fit what the expectation pattern is. If 656 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: who has efforts you're trying to get to vote for you. 657 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: That's why politics is like, just stay out of my way, 658 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: because it's just it's kind of icky right on both sides. 659 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: And that's where we are. Anyway, slowly here seven hundred 660 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: WW got news coming up at about ten minutes now, 661 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: about eight minutes from now. My math is bad. I apologize. 662 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: There's issues involving people over the age of sixty. If 663 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: you or someone you love is sixty or older, we 664 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: have a ration new crime. Speaking to crimes, we'll get 665 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: into that with Dennison Keller coming up in just a 666 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: few minutes. If you're older in sixty, we have a 667 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: disturbing pattern now that's developed over the last few years 668 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: with of course those types of crimes. The latest on 669 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: what's going on in Iran, more missiles launched, our embassies 670 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: and consulates under siege as it were, and now we 671 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: have to come up with the strategy. As often in America, 672 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: the case is we go and we blow something up, 673 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 1: and we don't have an exit strategy. No love laws. 674 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: For Komani, as a small child in seventy nine, I 675 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: recall the hostages, I recall the crisis. I recall those things, 676 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: and that has been true now for forty six years. 677 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: And so I look at this and go, all right, 678 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: Am I sad that they overthrow him they killed him? No, 679 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: not at all. Now I'm a little concerned because his 680 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: son is now the new leader of whatever it is, 681 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: the total Terian state over there in Iran, and I 682 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: think we got to probably go after him. But him 683 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: dying and getting taken out by US missiles and Israelis. 684 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. The problem is, though we have 685 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: to have Congress involved, We have to decide on the 686 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: War Powers Act. There's a lot of decisions have to 687 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: be made here in the next month or two in 688 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: order to facilitate this, because you just simply can't have 689 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: another conflict. We're engaging with no end in sight whatsoever. 690 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear four or five weeks or 691 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: four or five months, or four or five years. What 692 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: are we trying to do over there? What's the mission? 693 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: And countless presidents, whether it's a Republican, whether it's a Democrat, 694 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: an Obama launched missiles, I look at the same thing. 695 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: It's like, it's time for Congress now to actually step 696 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: up and do their jobs and intervene on this thing. Otherwise, 697 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: I mean, what is the point of having these branches 698 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: of government if they're not going to be engaged. Constitution's 699 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: very specific in what each body should be doing. We 700 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: just simply can't allow it to the executive branch and 701 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: the president, whoever that might be, to make all these 702 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 1: decisions with no checks in place from Congress. It's time 703 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: for them to step up. What are we doing over there? 704 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 1: What's the point? When does it end? How do we 705 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 1: get out? We need some answers, we need some diplomacy, 706 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: We need a little bit of leadership, if you will. 707 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 1: So I mentioned that's the problem of politics, where they 708 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: campaign all all this stuff, all this noise, and then 709 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: you elect them and they're mia. You want to talk 710 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: about negligence, The body of Congress right now, in my opinion, 711 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 1: is negligent. They don't do anything. They don't have Basically, 712 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: all you guys do is vote to shut down government 713 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: or not vote to shut down government. The case may be, 714 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: what is the point of all these elections and sending 715 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: you to Washington if you're not doing anything? News is 716 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: coming up in five here Sloany, seven hundred ww Cincinnati. 717 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: You want to be an American? It's a Scott Sloan 718 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: show back on seven hundred WILDW. The good news for 719 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: people over eight sixty five, and every day we get 720 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: closer to that. If you're inside that number, congrats you 721 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: made it. Good news is you're less likely to be 722 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: victims of violent crime than your children and grandchildren. The 723 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: bad news is older Americans are highly likely much more 724 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: likely to fall victim to financial crimes. It is the 725 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 1: fastest growing sector. If you're over sixty, you're talking about 726 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: twenty eight billion and lost money's FBI said year over 727 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: year over year, worried about fifteen to twenty five percent 728 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 1: increases every single year for these scams. Dennison Keller is 729 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: a reform journalist locally as a reform journalist and now 730 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,280 Speaker 1: a practicing attorney. Is an elder law attorney here in Cincinnati. 731 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: Dennison Keller, welcome back. 732 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 3: Are you thank you so much for having me on again. 733 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:00,919 Speaker 3: It's good to hear your boy. 734 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, how many years he been practicing law? Now 735 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 1: from if you may remember Dennison on TV. 736 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 3: You know it's nineteen years now, so not gonna twenty 737 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 3: so I believe it or not. I have been an 738 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 3: elder law attorney longer than I was a journalist, but 739 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 3: I still bear the scar. 740 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: Yeah right right, yeah, smart guy, Dennison is something like 741 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: one in six people six year older were subjected to 742 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: some form of abuse. I mean, we can talk about 743 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 1: that too, But the biggest, the fastest growing. The FBI 744 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,919 Speaker 1: just pointed this out is financial crimes. So let's get 745 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: into that. I'm guessing that probably investment scams were the biggest, 746 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: like I'd be probably the costliest. 747 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 3: Right, Well, it's just a little bit of everything, Scott. 748 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 3: And you know you mentioned my career as a journalist 749 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 3: and not to get too much into it, but it's 750 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 3: stuff like this, frankly that halfway inspired me to get 751 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 3: into elder law. I mean, I remember doing stories for 752 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 3: Channel twelve on the old They called them pigeon drop 753 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 3: schemes where a person would have approached an elderly person 754 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 3: on the parking lot of a bank and then convince 755 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 3: them that hey, I've got this access to this major 756 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 3: reward that I get, but I can't get it because 757 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,439 Speaker 3: I don't have a driver's license, and if you give 758 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: me money, I'll share it with you. And of course 759 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 3: the elderly person gives them the money, and then the 760 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 3: person takes off and then runs away. I remember doing 761 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:22,240 Speaker 3: a story a number of years ago, and as social 762 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,879 Speaker 3: media was kind of stepping up, where some scammer got 763 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 3: onto an elderly persons social media page impersonated the in 764 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,360 Speaker 3: person and themselves as that person's grandchild that they're in 765 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 3: jail and you got to send me bail money. So 766 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 3: I remember doing it back then and It's just it's 767 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 3: so frustrating because, man, the government institutions are trying so hard. 768 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,959 Speaker 3: I mean, Ohio has its Elder Justice Union, Kentucky has 769 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 3: its Office of Senior Protection, the FBI has this World 770 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 3: Abuse Awareness Month, and yet the problem just keeps getting 771 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 3: worse and worse and worse. And I think there are 772 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 3: multiple factors would go into that. You know, one is 773 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 3: that just the demographics of it. We're getting older and 774 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 3: older and older, particularly in America. And then and then secondly, 775 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 3: you know, our population of senior citizens is very, very wealthy. Uh. 776 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 3: And then thirdly, the technology is just so good for 777 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 3: scammers h and they keep finding ways to exploit it, 778 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 3: and they always seem to be two or three steps 779 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,320 Speaker 3: ahead of both law enforcement and unfortunately the senior citizens 780 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 3: and their. 781 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 1: Families typically in the cases you've seen or heard anyway, 782 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 1: Dennison Keller, are they are these offshore enterprises as opposed 783 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: to being here in the United States. 784 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 3: You know, not necessarily. My own father was scammed, Scott, 785 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 3: and it's one of the classic ones. You see somebody 786 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 3: hacking to his computer and because I'm sure he clicked 787 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 3: on some sort of link and the scammers would lock 788 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 3: up his computer and the only way he could unlock 789 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 3: is be kept paying them service fees. And unfortunately, the 790 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 3: nation or that scam was not such that they got 791 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 3: into his financial information. Maybe they tried, I don't know, 792 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 3: but the bottom line was they kept extracting more and 793 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 3: more money from him to fix their computer. And of 794 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 3: course they say were for Microsoft and were licensed and 795 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera. And he kept telling us that 796 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 3: this was happening, and I kept telling him, Dad, this 797 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 3: is a scam. Trust me on this. And that's part 798 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 3: of the frustration as well, is you know, a lot 799 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 3: of times elders just don't want to admit that they've 800 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 3: been taken, you know. And here you think you have 801 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 3: a really smart guy. He owned his own business. This 802 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 3: is before he passed away, and he has a son 803 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 3: who's an elderlaw attorney who's saying, Dad, this is a scam. 804 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 3: You have to stop this. But he would not believe me. 805 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 3: He believed them, and he got to the point where 806 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 3: he was so nervous he wouldn't open his computer in 807 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 3: his own home. He was driving twelve miles away to 808 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 3: my sisters who sits across the border in Mainsbook, Kentucky, 809 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 3: and that's where he would get online to do his 810 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 3: banking and such, because he was so nervous about it. 811 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 3: And it was only about a year or two after 812 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 3: he died, and he died four years ago that I 813 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 3: got a letter from the New York Attorney General that 814 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 3: they had copied people and they were looking for victims 815 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 3: statements and things like that. And we did not participate 816 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 3: in that because he had passed away. But that was 817 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 3: a New York operation. So yeah, I can be all 818 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 3: seed all shore overseas, but a lot of times they're 819 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:37,439 Speaker 3: right hearing out of states as well. 820 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 4: Yeah. 821 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: And the hard part about it is and where our 822 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 1: fastball gets slower and slower with every passing day, as 823 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 1: we know, and as we approach that age of sixty 824 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: sixty five seventy, it's also difficult to keep up with 825 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 1: evolving technology and how these scammers work because it's an 826 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: ever evolving enterprise and so you do have to put 827 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: your hubris aside. You have to go, hey, listen, I 828 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 1: don't know everything was supposed to be, you know, older 829 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: and wiser, Well, keeping up with technology is really really hard. 830 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: Trust me, I get that. I see it all the 831 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: time AI is coming into fruition. Now that that is 832 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: a game changer, and so it's going to get harder 833 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: and harder and harder to detect these financial crimes, especially 834 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: against the elderly. 835 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 3: It is, it's not just against the elderly. You know, 836 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 3: I was on a law conference last week in Seattle 837 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 3: and my associate attorney was was with me, and you know, 838 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,800 Speaker 3: she had taken a couple ubers using the corporate card, 839 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 3: and of course I get this alert, Hey, somebody who 840 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 3: is using an uber in Seattle? Is this legit? And 841 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 3: this is from American Express? And they American Express asked 842 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 3: you to click and verify Yes, this is a legitimate extent. 843 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 3: And I really had to think because I'm like, whoa 844 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 3: is this from American Express? Because I don't want out 845 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 3: this to be a trojan horse. And so I went 846 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 3: and looked from two different vantage points, you know, did 847 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 3: a search and called American Express, hey are you actually 848 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 3: emailing me? And you know you made fun of me 849 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 3: as a journalist and right leak. So but if there 850 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: really are some good principles and journalism that you can apply, 851 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 3: I think too elderly scams or financial exploitation and that 852 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 3: golden rule is check your sources. Check your sources. Don't 853 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 3: just take the person or the email at base value. 854 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 3: Get come two different other sources. Whether you get a 855 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 3: call saying, hey, you want a lottery and give me 856 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 3: your credit card and I'll give you your lottery earnings, 857 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 3: or getting an email that they asking you to click 858 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 3: on something, Open up a different browser, type in Hey, 859 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 3: is this a scam? Or does this actually happen? Call 860 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 3: on a couple of different look for a couple of 861 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,760 Speaker 3: different phone numbers, Call your family, does this sound Legit 862 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 3: is my grandchild actually in jail? And try to verify 863 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 3: that way. And then the other golden role is God, 864 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 3: just just do not give out your personal information. If 865 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 3: you think raw, why on earth would anybody be calling 866 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,720 Speaker 3: you to get your solid security number or your bank information? 867 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 3: Right right, It's gonna be a scam. Yeah, period. Yeah, 868 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 3: So when in doubt, get out, or the you. 869 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: Know, the one we get all the time is like, hey, 870 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: I'm a recruiter from and I saw your resumes, Like, well, 871 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 1: I don't have a resume out there, and that's an 872 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: easily dismissed once, or the you know, the hello text 873 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: that we get from some unknown number. You know, that's 874 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 1: kind of a fishing scan. But the sad part about it. 875 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 1: And Dennison Cutter, by the way, elder law attorney here 876 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. Uh, as we talk about the fastest rising 877 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: crime that the FBI is alert a sound, and that 878 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: is elder financial crimes here in the United States. You know, 879 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: you get those messages, it's like, Okay, who do I trust? Uh? 880 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,479 Speaker 1: You know you mentioned the journalism thing too. I'll point 881 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 1: out it struck me as there's a you know, back 882 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: in the glory days of the AP, I suppose there 883 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: was a sign in their room that said, hey, if 884 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: your mother says she loves you, check it out, which 885 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:56,720 Speaker 1: is kind of funny, but it's true. 886 00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 3: Right, That's that's a great at a great antidote, it 887 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 3: really is. You just got to check it out, check 888 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,800 Speaker 3: your sources. And you know, the thing is, we're always 889 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 3: bombarded with it, you know, back in nineteen eighty four. 890 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 3: And it sounds like it's going to good off topic, 891 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 3: but it is kind of related. I think you know, 892 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 3: the Irish Republican Army tried to assassinate Margaret Thatcher with 893 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 3: a bombing to the Brighton Hotel and it was a 894 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 3: foiled plot. It did not work, thank god. But they 895 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 3: said after that, Okay, we were unlucky today, but remember 896 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 3: we only have to be lucky once. You have to 897 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 3: be lucky always. And it was an intimous quote from 898 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 3: the nurch and Public Army, and I think that applies here. 899 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 3: You just cannot let your guard down. I just was 900 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 3: working on our employee manual for our law firm and 901 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 3: had a long segment about particularly using the computer and 902 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 3: being aware of phishing scams and malware and ransom and 903 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 3: all of it. And I kept putting the same line 904 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 3: at the end of the ten do not open it. 905 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 3: Do not open it, verify it. And you know the 906 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:09,240 Speaker 3: thing is, Unfortunately a lot of legitimate companies aren't thinking 907 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 3: about that either. It drives me crazy. My insurance carrier 908 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 3: will send me each year an email with my new policy, 909 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 3: and all in it says is a one line a 910 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 3: tax is a copy of your new professional liability policy. 911 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 3: That's it, you know, And I mean that was like 912 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 3: that to be a damn right. You're going to call 913 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 3: the insurance carrier like you actually send this, so you 914 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 3: can't just shortcut on the steps. Unfortunately, you just have 915 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,439 Speaker 3: to be vigilant again, check your sources. Like you said, 916 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 3: if your mom, if your mom says she loves you, 917 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 3: check it out. 918 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 4: That that's a great I've. 919 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: Heard that I love. I love deleting everything. It's like 920 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: if it's coming at me, and eventually, if it's important, 921 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 1: they'll continue to age up to me in other forms. 922 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: So I you know, I have a very small and 923 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 1: tight circle. But I get it if you're older, and 924 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: especially as we live longer, and you see it Denison Keller, 925 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: and that would be we wind up with things like 926 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,399 Speaker 1: Alzheimer's and dementia and the like, and not all that 927 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: we're isolated. Our friends are dying off, maybe our family 928 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: is halfway across the country, maybe we lost a spouse. 929 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 1: And your lonely. So I get the predatory nature of 930 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: what would trigger someone who would suspend their wilful disbelief 931 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: at a romance scam or a financial scam, because people 932 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 1: are lonely, and no matter how much you tell them, hey, 933 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: it's a scam, it's a romance scam. They want to 934 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,879 Speaker 1: believe that there's a human connection out there for them. 935 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 1: And it's so tragic that people exploit that. 936 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 3: It really is and it's just the worst kind of 937 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 3: evil I think. I mean, here you have individuals who 938 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 3: have lived a life and raised children and worked a career, 939 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 3: and they enjoy they should be able to enjoy the 940 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 3: fruits of that life well lived, and yet they are 941 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 3: the ones who are targeted more than others because they 942 00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 3: might not be a tech savvy or they might be 943 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,320 Speaker 3: to or whatever. 944 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 4: You know. 945 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 3: The the High Department of Aging has a great website. 946 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,280 Speaker 3: If you just google, I'm gonna give you a whole link. 947 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 3: But if you just google the High Department of Aging 948 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 3: scams and they actually have a list of all of 949 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 3: the most curtinent or prevalent scams that are going on 950 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: right now, and there are links to that, and the 951 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 3: links go to ARP articles, which also doesn't even deeper 952 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,720 Speaker 3: dive into those scams. And you know, to be honest 953 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 3: with you, Scott, in preparation of his call, I look 954 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 3: back to that situation with my own father and I 955 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 3: thought myself, dang, you know, I should have Nott with 956 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 3: him and shown him this website, right because he's never 957 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 3: gonna believe me because he changed my diapers. It's just 958 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 3: you just never get over it. To the parent, you 959 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 3: always have a degree of father knows best, mother knows best. 960 00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 3: But if it comes from an ultimate source who's not child, well, 961 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 3: then a lot of times they're more apt to believe that. Yeah, 962 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 3: and we see that as an elder law firm all 963 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 3: the time. Sure, not necessarily with scams, but with all things, 964 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:10,919 Speaker 3: the sense of, hey, you know, maybe it is time 965 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 3: to move outside of the house, Maybe you should get 966 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 3: a home health care agency'd give you a better chance 967 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,440 Speaker 3: to stay inside of out. There's coming from the kids. 968 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 3: The parents just don't listen to it. 969 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,439 Speaker 1: So, yeah, if it comes from somebody in a lab 970 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 1: code or an official or the government in this case, 971 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: they're they're more apt to believe it because of the 972 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 1: authoritary nature of it. They ain't gonna listen to you 973 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 1: because you're the kid. 974 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 3: That's exactly right. You know, a lot of those authoritative figures, 975 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 3: most of those authoritative figures are required by law now, 976 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,359 Speaker 3: and the attorneys are one of them to report if 977 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 3: they reasonably suspect some sort of elder abuse, whether it's 978 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 3: physical or financial or sexual or whatever it is. So 979 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,359 Speaker 3: we have to do that. And so you have an 980 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 3: ally right there, and you know that's part of as well, 981 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,800 Speaker 3: is a lot of elders do have a great team 982 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 3: that they just utilize that team. You know, they've got 983 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 3: a loving daughter, they've got a loving son, they've got 984 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 3: close friends, they've got care givers who are good, and 985 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 3: relying on them to help protect them can be a 986 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 3: huge advantage in the situation. Not everybody's blessed with that, 987 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 3: and you certainly recognize that. But the ones that are, 988 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,000 Speaker 3: you should utilize those people as long as you trust them, 989 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 3: you know. And a financial power of attorney is also 990 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:23,760 Speaker 3: a very big tool. Got to help elders prevent themselves 991 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,399 Speaker 3: from good interviews in the sense. And now you've got 992 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,799 Speaker 3: somebody who can look at that bank account, who can 993 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,800 Speaker 3: see these transactions that are going on, who can intervene 994 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 3: or as the authority to intervene on your behalf, and 995 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 3: then perhaps that person can help protect you against the 996 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 3: scam as well. Obviously, you only choose somebody that you 997 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 3: can trust. 998 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 4: You know. 999 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 3: We always ask when we're doing financial powers of attorney, 1000 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, well, Scott, you trust your son? Well, you know, 1001 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 3: Jim is the oldest. That wasn't the question, do you 1002 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 3: trust your son? But he's good with money? And I'm like, 1003 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:02,120 Speaker 3: that's worse, you can't trust them, and he's good with money. 1004 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 3: But really, I mean you, if you do have that 1005 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 3: person you can trust, you know, use them because they 1006 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,719 Speaker 3: can offer a tremendous buffer against scams that we've been 1007 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:14,720 Speaker 3: talking about this morning. 1008 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, my parents are both passed, but when we're 1009 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: to look at their will, they made my middle brother 1010 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 1: executor and like, I don't really care. That's fine. And 1011 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:25,839 Speaker 1: you know I mentioned to my mom and she's like, yeah, 1012 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,280 Speaker 1: it's because you know, he's good with paperwork.

What happened here? 1050 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, So there was a sort of a discussion going 1051 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 5: on on Zoom of whether or not a certain school 1052 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 5: should be closed, and a professor at Hunter College in 1053 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:35,240 Speaker 5: New York was a New York City Community Education Council meeting. 1054 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 5: She made she made an extremely racist comment and I 1055 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:44,879 Speaker 5: don't know. The thing is like, I don't know who 1056 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 5: she thought she was talking to.

And 1084 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:18,799 Speaker 1: then we had the the CNN guy right, Yeah, I 1085 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:19,399 Speaker 1: look at that. 1086 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 5: And I think, okay, and he's back. And I don't 1087 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 5: think if I got caught doing something really embarrassing on 1088 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,280 Speaker 5: live TV like that the whole world saw, I don't 1089 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 5: think I could ever crawl back out from under my rock. 1090 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,800 Speaker 5: But I guess sometimes you've just got. 1091 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 3: To get back O. 1092 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 1: We live in an error where people don't care. I mean, 1093 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,359 Speaker 1: just you know, it's all about you anyway. There's no 1094 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,360 Speaker 1: sense of shame anymore. 1095 00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 5: Oh, it's just like yeah, I guess. 1096 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:47,800 Speaker 3: And also on top of that. Everybody's memory is so short. 1097 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:49,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because it happens with the. 1098 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 5: Yeah. And if we said seeing and guy think that's 1099 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 5: actually Jeffrey Tubman, most people are like, don't, I don't 1100 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,359 Speaker 5: remember that because our our attention spans are short. We've 1101 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 5: got a thousand things on our mind. They are more 1102 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 5: important than what something done did on TV No offended 1103 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 5: and uh, you know, and so it's it's I guess 1104 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 5: you think I gotta get back on it. If you 1105 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 5: look at Matt Lower trying to come back from what 1106 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:19,919 Speaker 5: some of the stuff he did, and it's not it's 1107 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 5: not going well for him. I think was he was 1108 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,359 Speaker 5: so bad that people like, no, you're not coming back. 1109 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, But those are actual I mean physical sexual assault 1110 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: victims versus a slur you know. I mean again, are 1111 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 1: they both things you shouldn't do or both? Yeah, one 1112 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: hundred percent. But you know, the the sexual assault is 1113 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: also being in the position to force women to do that, 1114 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: like we saw with uh, you know what happened with 1115 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: with Fox, same thing. Uh, it's that that's a much 1116 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:49,279 Speaker 1: that's a much more a graver crime. Now in this 1117 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 1: day and age, it's interesting people elevate the racial thing 1118 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: to that, and it shouldn't be. I mean again, it's atrocious, 1119 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: it's abominable, it's inexcusable. But you know when when someone 1120 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,920 Speaker 1: is actually physically victimized sexually, that it's a whole different level. 1121 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:02,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1122 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, And so the question then becomes and we see it, 1123 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 5: I mean we see it locally, We see it, you know, 1124 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 5: in all kinds of situations, and where someone says or 1125 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 5: does something. There's something going on right now with Crossroads 1126 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 5: that it was something that was done allegedly ten years ago. 1127 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 5: So you think, okay, you know, how do we And 1128 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 5: I don't have the answer, but it's how do how 1129 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 5: do we decide? Everybody says and does things in private 1130 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:35,200 Speaker 5: that they would never do in public. We jokingly say, 1131 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,720 Speaker 5: when I die, please delete all my text chain text chains, 1132 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 5: because we all do that that we everybody has something 1133 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,760 Speaker 5: they've done or said in the past that they would 1134 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 5: not want, as our grandma always says, on the front 1135 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 5: page of the newspaper. And so the question then is 1136 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 5: how how do we respond to this? How much how 1137 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:57,000 Speaker 5: much forgiveness do we have here? Does it depend on 1138 00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 5: what it is? Does it depend It's It's a fascinating 1139 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 5: fascinating thing. Though she's clearly going to be she suspended, 1140 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 5: but my guess is will either be let go from 1141 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 5: her job and definitely shall be not on that commission anymore. Okay, 1142 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:14,720 Speaker 5: so when somebody brought something off Mike, you know it's 1143 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 5: I don't know, I don't know. 1144 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, we live in a society where there's 1145 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,720 Speaker 1: mikes and cameras all over the place, and so you 1146 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:22,920 Speaker 1: have to be on alert all the time or you 1147 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,240 Speaker 1: actually have to change your core beliefs. But I think 1148 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: in this case, this woman was part of the over 1149 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 1: educated class, but she was trying to either draw something 1150 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: from Martin Luther King Junior, and it just came out, well, 1151 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 1: it came out horribly. I still don't understand the context 1152 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 1: or what it was said. But you know you mentioned 1153 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:45,000 Speaker 1: Brian Tom the pastor of Crossroad Church. Okay, this story 1154 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: with the open mic just happened. The tone thing happened 1155 00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 1: ten years ago, and then on top of it, they 1156 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 1: had an investigation and said, hey, listen, don't it would 1157 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 1: it involved a I guess a riding cropped it on 1158 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:56,920 Speaker 1: his desk and somebody asked what it was, and he 1159 00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: showed him by saying yeah, it's for your horse, but 1160 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,440 Speaker 1: also people use it for well bedroom behavior and simulated 1161 00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 1: it on them and touching their butt with it, I guess, 1162 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 1: or rubbing their crotchest if they liked it. It's a 1163 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: kind of cringey, right, But you know the fact that 1164 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: this happened ten years ago, and also they said, hey, 1165 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 1: just okay, don't, don't do it again. That's a bad look. 1166 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 1: You're the senior pastor. Shit in't Then he admitted it, 1167 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:20,480 Speaker 1: and now we're bringing it back up again. At what 1168 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:22,919 Speaker 1: point do you go, it's settled. Why do we keep 1169 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: rehashing things like this? 1170 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1171 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 5: I always I always keep some room to think we 1172 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 5: don't know the whole story. There could be more to 1173 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,920 Speaker 5: it than that. And then again, I mean, when you 1174 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 5: take something and you touch someone's crouch with it, that's 1175 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 5: wrong on so many levels that you think. I think 1176 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 5: of that, and I think the thought would never cross 1177 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 5: my mind to do something like that, and I think, okay. 1178 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 1: So funny, I do that all the time. 1179 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 5: I think, I know that's what David told me right 1180 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 5: before I went on there. So we need to talk 1181 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 5: about that out there, right, But yeah, it's it's I 1182 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 5: have no answer, but I always think, Okay, we only 1183 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:05,919 Speaker 5: know part of the story. We only know what's being 1184 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,680 Speaker 5: we don't know what the what the full story is. 1185 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 5: So I always tell myself there's there's a really good 1186 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 5: chance we don't know the whole story, so let it, 1187 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:14,640 Speaker 5: you know, let it evolve. 1188 00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 3: But nobody can do that. 1189 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:17,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. But maybe at the same time, I 1190 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: think there's just some some people are offended by everything 1191 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 1: that they will not let it go. I think that's 1192 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 1: also true today because everyone has a voice in a platform, 1193 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 1: and so they feel like, and I went on a 1194 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,480 Speaker 1: second thought, I know, we investigate this, but it's still 1195 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:32,560 Speaker 1: not good enough. Let's reopen this whole thing again. I 1196 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: think that's also true Julie. 1197 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and that can be. And it's it's like 1198 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:42,880 Speaker 5: a continuum or spectrum. There are people I. 1199 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 1: Know people always agree you are. 1200 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 5: Extremely offended by the F word, and I know other 1201 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 5: people who say it every other word. Yeah, and so 1202 00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 5: who's right, you know, So. 1203 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 1: It's it's well, as someone who uses the F bomb 1204 00:59:56,400 --> 01:00:01,440 Speaker 1: with impunity, I'm right, okay, yes, yeah, if you're if 1205 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 1: you're offended by it, I'm like, well, sorry, you're offended. 1206 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 1: But that sounds like a U problem, not a new problem. 1207 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah. I had an old, old leader who 1208 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 5: a women leader, who would just lose her mind anytime 1209 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 5: anybody used the F word and she see, I think 1210 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 5: she really hurt herself by being so reactive. And I 1211 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 5: get it she. 1212 01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 3: Didn't like it. 1213 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 5: But to to huff and puff and stump away is 1214 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 5: probably not especially when your work in a corporate environment. 1215 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 5: Should it be said? Yeah, probably not if we want 1216 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 5: to if we want an environment, but but if we 1217 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 5: want an environment where people feel comfortable. But that can 1218 01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 5: go too far too so who's to say? You know, 1219 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 5: I'm not offended by it, some people are. I respect that, 1220 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,160 Speaker 5: But then where does that when that gets into the 1221 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:53,080 Speaker 5: public public sphere? What should be if a if a 1222 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 5: public official drops several F bombs on a hot mic, 1223 01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 5: yeah yeah, that's not the same as saying great things 1224 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 5: on a hot mite. But again that's just my opinion. 1225 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. There's things that bother me all 1226 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 1: the time in real life that I'm like, okay, it's 1227 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 1: I'll try to avoid it or get away from it. 1228 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:12,480 Speaker 1: But it's like I'm not going to force you to 1229 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,560 Speaker 1: conduct yourself. Is to not defend me it's like you know, 1230 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 1: and I think it's different. There's kids around things like that, 1231 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 1: and certainly there are conversations where you don't want that 1232 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 1: coming out. You gotta also read the room. You can't 1233 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: do it all the time. I want to pivot a 1234 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 1: second here, Julie to something something that this is not 1235 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 1: my circle, but I'm around people who use this all 1236 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 1: the time, and I kind of roll my eyes. And it, 1237 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 1: of course is the age old topic of and the 1238 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,520 Speaker 1: Wall Street Channel, by the way, the Wall Street chernel 1239 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: does a great job of this, using and breaking down 1240 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: work jargon in business and tech industries, and people got 1241 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: a chance to sound off on the terms that get 1242 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: them the most riled up. So the biggest defenders for 1243 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,800 Speaker 1: the cultural touchstones are put a pin in it. Let's 1244 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 1: unpack that. Let's take a ten thousand foot view. Are 1245 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:57,479 Speaker 1: some of the ones that made the cut. I would 1246 01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 1: throw move the needle and thought leadership and words like 1247 01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:04,480 Speaker 1: those to me are like, man, I hear those all 1248 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 1: the time and they just sound so business cringey. 1249 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, and here's some more circle let's circle back. 1250 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: I use circle back though, and I don't think that 1251 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 1: was like a big corporate buzzword. Now, I got to 1252 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 1: stop using it. 1253 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 5: Now, you're right thought leadership stakeholders. Yeah, and it's it's 1254 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 5: there is always corporate jargon. So one of my pet 1255 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 5: peeves is something that it just makes me, makes someone unlistenable. 1256 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 5: It's when they put the word right at the end 1257 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 5: of that every sentence. 1258 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do. 1259 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 5: I was walking down the street right and I on 1260 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 5: a coffee shop right, and I went in right, and 1261 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 5: people do it. I was going to call one time 1262 01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 5: that I have to make for an excuse to get 1263 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,800 Speaker 5: off this call because my ears are screaming. And we 1264 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,520 Speaker 5: do all you know, I mean, there's all the like 1265 01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:55,480 Speaker 5: and you know, and I certainly do plenty, but we 1266 01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 5: all have our things. But yeah, it's funny because it's 1267 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 5: it's you're going to catch yourself, put a pin in it. 1268 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:05,760 Speaker 5: Let's unpack that, in other words, explains me what you mean. 1269 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 5: Every single one of those phrases actually mean something. Who 1270 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 5: let's unpack that, which means tell me more about that. 1271 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 5: So they all mean something. And so certain companies, there 1272 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 5: are certain companies that will have company specific jargon, Like 1273 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 5: if you're a new person coming into that company, you 1274 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 5: are like, what does that mean? Because you've never heard 1275 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 5: it before, and so you almost inside cultures, inside companies, 1276 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 5: inside departments, there's always specific language or acronym. Let's, uh, 1277 01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:38,920 Speaker 5: let's take the ABC on that and come back and 1278 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 5: do an X Y Z. And you're thinking, I'm entering 1279 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:44,000 Speaker 5: a foreign land here. I don't know what these people 1280 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,160 Speaker 5: are saying, and so we all do it, we all 1281 01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 5: laugh at it, and it's just it's never going away. 1282 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:53,760 Speaker 1: But well, here's the thing in business, right if Julie balk, 1283 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: if you have an NBA, let's say, okay, there are 1284 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,720 Speaker 1: there are things that you use to describe certain things, 1285 01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 1: and Biness, you go, what the hell does that mean? 1286 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:04,640 Speaker 1: Explain that in common terms, and you do. And it's like, okay, well, 1287 01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: why don't you just say that? But but I think 1288 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 1: there's a couple of things going on here, and tell 1289 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:10,680 Speaker 1: me if I'm right or wrong on this one. 1290 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 3: Uh. 1291 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 1: Number one is virtue signaling. So if you it's kind 1292 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:18,480 Speaker 1: of like, uh, you know, teenagers, they have their own 1293 01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 1: language and every generation or every few years, new you know, 1294 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: six seven comes into play and we're not supposed to 1295 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: know what that means. If you watch, you know, remember 1296 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,160 Speaker 1: kids cartoons in the morning, all the commercials make fun 1297 01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:31,520 Speaker 1: of you know, dumb dad. Dad doesn't know, Mom doesn't know. 1298 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,040 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a secret club because you know, 1299 01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 1: we don't have agency yet, we're kids, and this is 1300 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 1: a way to stick it back to the man. And 1301 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,920 Speaker 1: so it's punching up and that whole that that whole narrative, 1302 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 1: and so I think, but virtually signaling here is like, well, 1303 01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 1: you know, these are the terms you use in business, 1304 01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:45,439 Speaker 1: and if you're not part of our group, you don't 1305 01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 1: know what these terms mean. But every culture has it, 1306 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:51,280 Speaker 1: and I don't think businesses is a culture unlike any 1307 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:53,959 Speaker 1: look like other cultures out there that use their own 1308 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 1: jargon and language, as it were. So there's that signaling 1309 01:04:57,680 --> 01:04:58,920 Speaker 1: to show you're a part of that thing. At the 1310 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 1: same time, I'll be honest with you, I've had bosses 1311 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 1: in the past that have used language like this, the 1312 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 1: buzz or corporate buzzwords of the day, and quite honestly, 1313 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,080 Speaker 1: I think it is to cover up for incompetence or 1314 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 1: lack of confidence and throwing the catch raises out there 1315 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:17,080 Speaker 1: that you really don't know what they're doing makes you're 1316 01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 1: using them to try and sound smarter than you really are, 1317 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: and then you use them inappropriately in different situations to 1318 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: kind of mask who you really are. Like, yeah, you 1319 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 1: know you're using these big words in corporate buzzwords and 1320 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 1: it sounds good, but you know when you scratch the surface, 1321 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 1: you literally are skinned. You know there's nothing there. You 1322 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I don't know how to word it, 1323 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:42,760 Speaker 1: is like I just feel like you're using that language 1324 01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 1: and mask some sort of incompetence or your self esteem. 1325 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,720 Speaker 1: And the more you use that, I think, the more reflective. 1326 01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 1: Is Am I right wrong about that? 1327 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:51,480 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1328 01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:54,200 Speaker 5: No, I have heard I have heard statements. You know, 1329 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 5: someone that you work with or on TV or wherever, 1330 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:01,920 Speaker 5: and they they say some time, I even think you 1331 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:06,280 Speaker 5: know what you just said, And it is sometimes it 1332 01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 5: is a bunch of works out to cover up lack 1333 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 5: of knowledge. But if you're inside of corporation and you're 1334 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 5: the guy or woman, the man or woman you report 1335 01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 5: to uses the words circle back a lot, or put 1336 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 5: a pin in it, or let's wipeboard it or let 1337 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 5: parking out, put it in the parking lot, you probably 1338 01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 5: will start to use those words because that's their language 1339 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,160 Speaker 5: and you want them to be able to understand what. 1340 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 3: You say, and vice versa. 1341 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 5: So there is sort of a you've got to I've 1342 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 5: got to be speaking the same language as you, and 1343 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 5: we just take it on really naturally a lot of 1344 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 5: times because we want the person we're reporting to to 1345 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 5: see that we understand what they're saying, and we want 1346 01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:47,720 Speaker 5: them to understand us, and so it's easy to fall 1347 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,800 Speaker 5: into that. Here's how this company H. Here's how this 1348 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:55,000 Speaker 5: company H follows up. We don't follow up by text, 1349 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 5: We follow up by emails, or we follow up by 1350 01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,240 Speaker 5: phone some of it, but some of it's just how 1351 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 5: we get stuff done. And it can be annoying, Yeah, 1352 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 5: especially when you know the people who said it. I 1353 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 5: don't really think you was it Princess Bride. I do 1354 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,080 Speaker 5: not think that means what you think it means, Montoya 1355 01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:13,760 Speaker 5: or something like that. 1356 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:14,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1357 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:18,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty it's pretty obvious that some of these 1358 01:07:18,920 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 1: people is like, you don't know, I actually had someone 1359 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 1: I was working for it once a long, long time ago, 1360 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 1: and I think I want to say the buzzword then 1361 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:31,080 Speaker 1: was kaizen the whole Japanese principle? Right? And then me, 1362 01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 1: do you use that with impunity? The point I start, 1363 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:37,080 Speaker 1: I actually started like had a message or something. I 1364 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,040 Speaker 1: showed a few people, like what the what are they 1365 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: talking about here? And they're like, I have no idea 1366 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 1: what this means, And so I decided to respond to 1367 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: them in fortune cookie. So when we got to the Chinese, 1368 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 1: I'd saved the fortune cookie fortunes and then put those 1369 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 1: in sentences and it'd be a bunch of non sequorters, 1370 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: made no sense whatsoever. So anytime they asked me something, 1371 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: I put that in there and then they respond, Wow, 1372 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: that is that's a really good thought provoking statement. I 1373 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 1: couldn't agree more like it's total I'm just making this up, 1374 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 1: goofing on them, and they had no idea. We just 1375 01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 1: call them fortune cookies. I'm gonna I'm gonna send another 1376 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 1: fortune cookie. See what happens. 1377 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 5: I remind me to never go to Chinese lest you, 1378 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 5: because you'll do that to me. 1379 01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: But I'll on I'm collecting.

Jeff Crossman 1409 01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 1: is his name. He is the lead council in this 1410 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 1: lawsuit to stop Ohio from using unclaimed funds for pay 1411 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,920 Speaker 1: Corps and now TQ. Well, now, if you had a 1412 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 1: pile of cash Bengals, reds FC Cincinnati and you were 1413 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:43,559 Speaker 1: running those organizations and the state said, hey, we have 1414 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,520 Speaker 1: this big pot of cash so you can improve your facilities, 1415 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 1: feel free to tap into that, you'd be lining up right. 1416 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: I don't fault them for it. I also think that 1417 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:59,679 Speaker 1: quite honestly, when it comes to unclaimed funds after ten years, 1418 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:02,760 Speaker 1: do you have a duty to know that they're on 1419 01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 1: CLEM funds out there and here's the website and just 1420 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 1: go look it up. I think that's probably true, right, 1421 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 1: It's like I would assume after ten years you don't 1422 01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 1: know what's there, or maybe you know after certainly after 1423 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 1: a longer period, and maybe that person has moved or 1424 01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: they're dead. We don't know. But I will say it's 1425 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,640 Speaker 1: interesting how when you owe the state money or the 1426 01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:27,560 Speaker 1: government money, They're pretty good at finding you, aren't they. 1427 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 3: You know? 1428 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 1: So I go back to I don't know twenty twenty, 1429 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 1: and I filed my taxes in five six years later. 1430 01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:39,080 Speaker 1: Go hey, by the way, five years ago, you didn't 1431 01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:42,719 Speaker 1: claim this is a and yo US fifty four cents. 1432 01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 1: Pay up with the penalty though it's five hundred and 1433 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 1: forty dollars, so they can find out when like, you're 1434 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:52,360 Speaker 1: screwing them tax wise. But have I got money coming 1435 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: to me? That's different. That's I think that's a good 1436 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:57,559 Speaker 1: argument that he has here for. And meanwhile, it's all 1437 01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:00,320 Speaker 1: tied up in the court right now on whether or 1438 01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:03,840 Speaker 1: not that we should be using unclaimed fund money to 1439 01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 1: build stadiums. Legit question, this is your money eventually, I mean, 1440 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:09,679 Speaker 1: maybe you have maybe you have money in the books 1441 01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 1: right maybe you know the unclaimed fund thing. Maybe you had. 1442 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 1: I got a few hundred dollars back not long ago 1443 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 1: since I was talking about this story. But here's something else. 1444 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:20,080 Speaker 1: So let's say they take this money and they give 1445 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:25,360 Speaker 1: it to I don't know, the Bengals, FC, the Reds, whomever, 1446 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:27,720 Speaker 1: well they were doing it for the Browns, and they 1447 01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,599 Speaker 1: start using this money to kick Okay, well, what happens 1448 01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 1: to the court rules and says, well, you can't give 1449 01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:35,759 Speaker 1: them money away. Do we have a whole nother level 1450 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 1: Ohio version of the terri free funds? I mean, think 1451 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:42,720 Speaker 1: about how how hard that's going to be. Now it's 1452 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 1: on the state level. We'll get to that next.

That means your 1459 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:03,680 Speaker 1: old bank accounts, on cash, refund checks, forgotten deposits, it's 1460 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 1: all in there, and they're going to use that money 1461 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:09,640 Speaker 1: to build and renovate stadiums across the Buckeye State for 1462 01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,919 Speaker 1: pro team. So we know that the former Ohio Attorney 1463 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,599 Speaker 1: General Mark Dan's law firm is suing to stop it. 1464 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:18,040 Speaker 1: And we've kind of got a new wrinkle here is 1465 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:21,080 Speaker 1: FC Cincinnati has been the latest team to apply for 1466 01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:24,240 Speaker 1: some money. Here. Jeff Crossman is lead counsel in this 1467 01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 1: laws who joins the show now once again, Jeff, how you. 1468 01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:28,680 Speaker 4: Been, I'm well, how are you? 1469 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:31,880 Speaker 1: I'm well, thanks, counselor. So, they created this billion dollar 1470 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 1: sports facility grant program last year and in the budget, 1471 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 1: I'm funded by unclaimed property. The states year mark six 1472 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 1: hundred million for the Browns Stadium. F C Cincinnati has 1473 01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:44,600 Speaker 1: just applied for one hundred and almost one hundred and 1474 01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:46,880 Speaker 1: forty million of the remaining four hundred million dollar pool. 1475 01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:49,040 Speaker 1: Everyone's got their hand out at this point, the Bengals 1476 01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:52,960 Speaker 1: f C Cincinnati. So before we get in, that is 1477 01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 1: kind of the basic give me a reset here, What 1478 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,599 Speaker 1: exactly is the state of Hive doing with this unclaimed 1479 01:12:57,600 --> 01:12:59,840 Speaker 1: money that you believe is unconstitutional. 1480 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:03,879 Speaker 4: Well, there's four point eight billion dollars in the unclaimed 1481 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:08,200 Speaker 4: funds account, which the suportible Ohio and a unanimous decision 1482 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:10,640 Speaker 4: probably in two thousand and nine of they it was 1483 01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:13,800 Speaker 4: and I don't know how many times there's ever been 1484 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:15,960 Speaker 4: a unanimous decision on the HoFH Spreme Court, but they 1485 01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 4: all agreed that the only funds represent private property for 1486 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:23,439 Speaker 4: individuals in Ohio and even outside of Ohio, and what 1487 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,479 Speaker 4: the State of Ohio is doing is appropriating, in a 1488 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:31,479 Speaker 4: sense m in domain taking for those those funds those 1489 01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:36,040 Speaker 4: properties and using it to give to private developers to 1490 01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:38,280 Speaker 4: build their stadius. At least that's the argument in the 1491 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:41,360 Speaker 4: case that we have perfectly depending because the only case 1492 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 4: for the only grant that they had acknowledged was six 1493 01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,040 Speaker 4: hundred million dollars in the Browns. 1494 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and now, of course set us off down here 1495 01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:51,800 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati because we don't like that. We don't like that. 1496 01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 1: So you've got that war between cities going on that 1497 01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,400 Speaker 1: that brotherly competition, if you will. The state argues that 1498 01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,920 Speaker 1: laws governing abandoned property have existed for entries, and that's true. 1499 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:03,760 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is upheld them. Do you have a counter 1500 01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:04,920 Speaker 1: to that or why is this different? 1501 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 4: Well, there's two argues. One is the taking in itself 1502 01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:11,800 Speaker 4: is improper. You can't just take private property and give 1503 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:15,080 Speaker 4: it to another private owner. That's just unconstitutional and in 1504 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,400 Speaker 4: domain under the taking clause both in the state and 1505 01:14:18,439 --> 01:14:21,840 Speaker 4: the federal constitutions required to be a public purpose. So 1506 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 4: that's the first argument. The second argument is they're just 1507 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:26,920 Speaker 4: not giving anybody any kind of new process here. There's 1508 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:30,280 Speaker 4: no notice individual lives notice in anybody that has property 1509 01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:33,240 Speaker 4: in the end plant, there's many many people in that 1510 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 4: account who are completely unaware that their property is being 1511 01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 4: appropriated for this purpose. 1512 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, but there also is I mean, this has been 1513 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:44,680 Speaker 1: law for a long time. There's a dormancy period of it. 1514 01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:46,840 Speaker 1: You know, after ten years, it's kind of looked at 1515 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 1: is permanently abandoned. And I'm sure that there's a lot 1516 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 1: of this money out and I can't say all of 1517 01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 1: it for sure, But after ten years, we assume that 1518 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,720 Speaker 1: person doesn't care or they have died, what do you 1519 01:14:56,720 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 1: do with that money just to sit in this account 1520 01:14:58,479 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 1: for perpetuity? 1521 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,679 Speaker 4: Those are valid public policy discussion points. I think if 1522 01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 4: the legislature had had gone through that process and had 1523 01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 4: public discussion about it, then maybe there'd be a policy 1524 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 4: position you could land on that everybody could agree to. 1525 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,280 Speaker 4: But that's not what happened here. They just passed this 1526 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 4: and basis basically a backward deal. That and night kind 1527 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 4: of thing where you folks did have no opportunity to 1528 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:26,160 Speaker 4: really abject or put a counterproposal on the table that 1529 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 4: people could live with. And again, you can't abandon property 1530 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 4: you're not aware of it. The state's not telling you 1531 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 4: you have property at the unplanted fund's account, Then how 1532 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:35,439 Speaker 4: are you supposed to abandon something you're not even sure 1533 01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 4: is there is there. 1534 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:39,519 Speaker 1: A process for due diligence for people who are owed 1535 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 1: this money, and that you also have to I guess 1536 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 1: be responsible on your part. That there's it's kind of 1537 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:47,439 Speaker 1: like I don't know tax or have you got to 1538 01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:49,639 Speaker 1: you got to get the tax refund and figure out 1539 01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:51,720 Speaker 1: what what the government owes you to get your money back. 1540 01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:54,200 Speaker 1: I know it's kind of a bad comparison, but you know, 1541 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 1: tax season, we'll use that to go with right now. 1542 01:15:57,040 --> 01:16:01,160 Speaker 1: In that you know, there's notifications, public notifications, there's public 1543 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:05,120 Speaker 1: service announcements. Hey, here's the unclaimed funds website. They try 1544 01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:07,320 Speaker 1: to do I guess as much as they can public leaning, 1545 01:16:07,479 --> 01:16:09,639 Speaker 1: public public facing, to try and get the word out 1546 01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 1: to check your your unclaimed funds. How did you battle 1547 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:13,240 Speaker 1: against that? 1548 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 4: Well, the US Supreme Court is at time and time 1549 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 4: again when it comes to cry on property, it's up 1550 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:21,720 Speaker 4: to the government to provide notice to the owner to 1551 01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 4: demonstrate ownership. So you know, the government's responsibility if they're 1552 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:29,000 Speaker 4: going to take your property to give you notice in 1553 01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,599 Speaker 4: an opportunity to object, and it's not happening here. 1554 01:16:32,040 --> 01:16:35,479 Speaker 1: I think using the tax example, Jeff Crossman. You know, 1555 01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 1: I if I'm I don't know my taxes are off 1556 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:43,559 Speaker 1: by like twelve dollars in twenty ten. You know, somehow 1557 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,200 Speaker 1: they'll find me and go, hey, you know this plus 1558 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,679 Speaker 1: the penalties. They're really good when we know them money. 1559 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:49,600 Speaker 1: But when it's your money, it's a different story. Like 1560 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:53,400 Speaker 1: they'll find you if you owe a tax money. 1561 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:55,960 Speaker 4: If you if you owe a parking ticket or tax dollars, 1562 01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 4: they are going to track you down to the ends 1563 01:16:57,560 --> 01:17:00,600 Speaker 4: of your find you. Hey. So you know, what we 1564 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 4: would propose is that the government do something else here 1565 01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:07,640 Speaker 4: to provide notice to people and give them an opportunity to, 1566 01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:10,080 Speaker 4: you know, a legitimate opportunity to claim their funds. And 1567 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:12,839 Speaker 4: this can be done over different ways, through a discount 1568 01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 4: on your taxes or your vehicle registrations. There's there's got 1569 01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:18,240 Speaker 4: to be a better process than what they've engaged in here. 1570 01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 1: So a judge in Franklin County blocked the transfer with 1571 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:25,040 Speaker 1: a temporary restraining order, then allowed it to proceed. The 1572 01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:28,680 Speaker 1: lawsuits kept alive by your firm, Jeff Crossman, what does 1573 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 1: that mixed sigan'll tell you about where this case has 1574 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 1: had a where it stands right now, is everything is 1575 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 1: still in limbo? Are they going to start distributing the 1576 01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:37,679 Speaker 1: money or is this disorder still in place? 1577 01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:40,599 Speaker 4: The order is still in place. There was a temporary 1578 01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:42,760 Speaker 4: restraining order entered and at the end of the year 1579 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 4: last year we came back to the court. In January, 1580 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 4: we had another hearing on whether or not the court 1581 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:53,280 Speaker 4: extend that temporary temporary restraining order to what they call 1582 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,599 Speaker 4: a preliminarium junction, which would hold everything in place until 1583 01:17:56,640 --> 01:18:00,880 Speaker 4: the litigation has included. That decision hasn't reach We're waiting 1584 01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:01,160 Speaker 4: on them. 1585 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:03,040 Speaker 1: Okay, Now there's a chance they could go, yeah, you 1586 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:04,880 Speaker 1: know what, it's illegal, go ahead and hand the money out. 1587 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:08,960 Speaker 1: If that happens, Is this like the tariff issue in 1588 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 1: that we collected all these tariffs and the Supreme Court says, no, 1589 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,280 Speaker 1: you can't do that, and now we're faced with probably 1590 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:17,639 Speaker 1: having to give the money back because everyone's lining up 1591 01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:20,360 Speaker 1: in court to be first in line, first on the bus, 1592 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:22,920 Speaker 1: gets paid. Is it a similar situation here in Ohio? 1593 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,200 Speaker 4: If that happens, well, if the funds go out the door, 1594 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,280 Speaker 4: the state's already admitted. Once the funds leave the uncleaned 1595 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 4: funds account, there's really no way to recover those funds. 1596 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:37,400 Speaker 4: And in fact, what our argument was, because anybody that 1597 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 4: has had their funds transfer out of the accounts and 1598 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:42,040 Speaker 4: still make the claim, but they're paying those claims with 1599 01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:45,720 Speaker 4: other people's proper to any of the newer accounts that 1600 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:48,640 Speaker 4: they've taken over. So in a sense that it's a 1601 01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,759 Speaker 4: bit of a Ponzie scheme in our view. And so, yeah, 1602 01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:55,040 Speaker 4: so it could be that we get this, we don't 1603 01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:58,280 Speaker 4: get the injunction. The court allows the state to distribute 1604 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,960 Speaker 4: these money, and then we ultimately prevail in the end 1605 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:02,800 Speaker 4: of the day in the lawsuit, and then they have 1606 01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 4: to come back and find a way to recover all 1607 01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 4: that money, which is going to require the states either 1608 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 4: raising taxes or doing other things to recover that, you know, 1609 01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 4: nearly two billion dollars they've taken from. 1610 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, to coin a phrase, it's a damn mess. 1611 01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 4: Isn't it correct? Yeah, definitely complicates. 1612 01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:25,920 Speaker 1: He's Jeff Crossman, lead council in the case involving unclaimed 1613 01:19:25,920 --> 01:19:28,840 Speaker 1: funds in Ohio. You know, your bank accounts on class 1614 01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:32,839 Speaker 1: on cash refund checks goes into to the unclaimed funds account. 1615 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:35,240 Speaker 1: As we know now after ten years, that money the 1616 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:37,720 Speaker 1: plan is to take that money and give it to 1617 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:42,240 Speaker 1: local municipalities and cities to build stadiums pro stadiums. As 1618 01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:44,840 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, FC just came out and said, hey, 1619 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 1: we need some money for this thing. We could use 1620 01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 1: some cash here. One hundred and thirty six million dollars 1621 01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: Hamlet County apply for a two hundred and thirty four million 1622 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:56,919 Speaker 1: dollars pay course stadium give back for renovations. That project 1623 01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:59,960 Speaker 1: is almost at a billion dollars now at this point too, 1624 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:02,040 Speaker 1: So we're waiting for the reds now to go, Hey 1625 01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:04,920 Speaker 1: what about us. Brown's got six hundred million and it 1626 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,519 Speaker 1: started this whole thing. You're now looking at a situation 1627 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 1: where FC and Emmily and County are applying for hundreds 1628 01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:12,840 Speaker 1: of millions. So when these teams lineup, does that expansion 1629 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:15,400 Speaker 1: of the program strengthen your legal case or complicated? 1630 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 4: Well, I don't know that it has any impact. I mean, 1631 01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 4: I think at the end of the day, we have 1632 01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:23,040 Speaker 4: to determine whether or not what they've done here is constitutional. 1633 01:20:23,160 --> 01:20:26,599 Speaker 4: If it's not constitutional, then none of these applications submitted 1634 01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:29,840 Speaker 4: are compete. There's not any money available to any of 1635 01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:33,800 Speaker 4: these applications. So you know, that's the first step, and 1636 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 4: then after that we'll evaluate it. But there's been by 1637 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:40,600 Speaker 4: last count, I would take twenty two applications, you know, 1638 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 4: from the Guardians to the Cavaliers, to the Bengals, to 1639 01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:48,720 Speaker 4: FC Cincinnati to a group kind of put a clean 1640 01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:52,000 Speaker 4: soccer team together. So there's been the Toledo mud Hends. 1641 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:54,320 Speaker 4: I mean, there's been a number of applications submitted and 1642 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:58,240 Speaker 4: anticipations funds might be available, but you know, the court 1643 01:20:58,360 --> 01:20:59,719 Speaker 4: needs to make its decision first. 1644 01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the Browns got six hundred million directly appropriated, 1645 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:06,920 Speaker 1: no application, no competition. These other teams you mentioned, including 1646 01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:09,400 Speaker 1: FC Cincinnati, the Bengals had to apply for what's left 1647 01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:12,879 Speaker 1: the crumbs? Does that dispare treatment have any legal impactor? 1648 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 4: That's that's out of the scope of our case. But 1649 01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:19,080 Speaker 4: I'm sure there's people there that will take a look 1650 01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:19,679 Speaker 4: at that question. 1651 01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:22,879 Speaker 1: Sure it will, because one thing we like in Ohio 1652 01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:25,439 Speaker 1: is Cincinnati and Cleveland fighting each other. That's for damn sure. 1653 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,400 Speaker 1: So how many how many Ohios does this potentially effect, 1654 01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:31,400 Speaker 1: by the way, is and how large is the class 1655 01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 1: you're representing? 1656 01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 4: Well, there are hundreds of thousands of individual accounts. It's 1657 01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 4: not just people in Ohio. There's people outside of states, 1658 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,240 Speaker 4: outside of the United States that have funds in this account. 1659 01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:47,080 Speaker 4: You know, JP Mortgage j uh you know they have 1660 01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:50,719 Speaker 4: accounts everywhere that everywhere in the world. People have accounts 1661 01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,720 Speaker 4: a little all over the world. JP Mortgage Chase is 1662 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:57,200 Speaker 4: one example of a company that's depositing unclaim funds in 1663 01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 4: Ohio's account, even though those folks may not have any 1664 01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:02,960 Speaker 4: relationship with the state of Ohio. This is what I'm 1665 01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,640 Speaker 4: talking about. If you're taking people's property, they may not 1666 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:08,240 Speaker 4: be aware that their funds are in Ohio's account, even 1667 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,040 Speaker 4: though they might live in New York or Tokyo. 1668 01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:13,280 Speaker 1: Do you have an idea what the average dollar amount 1669 01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:15,679 Speaker 1: would be what people have at stake. 1670 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,160 Speaker 4: I think that's a good question. I think it varies. 1671 01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 4: We've heard anywhere from ten bucks to ten thousand bucks, 1672 01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 4: even more. I mean there was the Animal Protective League 1673 01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:30,799 Speaker 4: League in an acron had over one hundred eight thousand 1674 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 4: dollars in the accounts that they were run aware of. 1675 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, I went and got I think it was 1676 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:37,519 Speaker 1: last year. I did it and got a couple hundred 1677 01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:39,640 Speaker 1: dollars back from something, So I was pretty happy By 1678 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:41,200 Speaker 1: that because I didn't want the Browns to get my 1679 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 1: money and squander it on ruining another quarterback. I can't 1680 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 1: have that blood on my hands, Jeff, I can't have 1681 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 1: that blood on my hands. 1682 01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:50,040 Speaker 4: I think a lot of people in Cleveland would SIMPERVISEE. 1683 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:54,880 Speaker 1: We got our own problems here. So the performance grant 1684 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:59,000 Speaker 1: program requires that the revenue generated by the stadium district's 1685 01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,400 Speaker 1: payback the grant over sixteen years. This may also be 1686 01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:04,920 Speaker 1: outside of your scope. But if the economics don't work 1687 01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:06,840 Speaker 1: out there and the teams can't cover the shortfall, then 1688 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 1: are tax PARI still on the hook? Who covers that? 1689 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:12,559 Speaker 4: Well? I think if they give it, if it's a 1690 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:15,360 Speaker 4: grant money, the inflication is that that money not kind 1691 01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:17,840 Speaker 4: of peper payment. It's really murky whether or not that 1692 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:19,880 Speaker 4: there is an obligation to be pay if we haven't 1693 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:20,839 Speaker 4: guide it into a detail. 1694 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 2: Bum. 1695 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a grant not alone, right. 1696 01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 4: That's what they're claiming it is. 1697 01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 1: Huh. If this succeeds, what happens to the money? Well, 1698 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:30,880 Speaker 1: you know, the money's kind of like in limbo right now. 1699 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:32,960 Speaker 1: We're never going to be able to claw that back, 1700 01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:35,080 Speaker 1: is kind of what you pointed out. And that's a 1701 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:38,000 Speaker 1: disturbing part because I'd imagine that would just you'd have 1702 01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:40,479 Speaker 1: a flood of lawsuits going back and forth the state 1703 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,439 Speaker 1: would It'd be in chaos if they had to pay 1704 01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:44,000 Speaker 1: it back, it'd have to come to the general fund. 1705 01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:46,559 Speaker 1: You're talking money from schools and everything else. There's a 1706 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 1: local municipality here, I forget where the same thing happened. Guy 1707 01:23:49,200 --> 01:23:52,679 Speaker 1: was I think falsely charged and arrested, and they sued 1708 01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 1: them in won and they don't have any money to 1709 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:56,040 Speaker 1: pay him back. They don't know what to do. They 1710 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:58,880 Speaker 1: might have to start selling assets at this small community 1711 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:01,880 Speaker 1: to pay this guy's forty two million dollar claim. Could 1712 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:02,799 Speaker 1: that happen in Ohio? 1713 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:07,120 Speaker 4: I think anything's possible. And I think the general sense 1714 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:09,080 Speaker 4: that I've received up here in Northeast Ohio is the 1715 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:13,679 Speaker 4: people are outraged that they're being to give billionaires millionaires 1716 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 4: and billionaires additional millions the construct facilities that really they 1717 01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:21,519 Speaker 4: benefit from. Its socializing the cost of everything. You know, 1718 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,320 Speaker 4: all these billionaires hate socialism, but they love it when 1719 01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:26,800 Speaker 4: they can socialize the cost of something as long as 1720 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 4: they can capitalize on the benefits of it. Yeah, and 1721 01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:31,320 Speaker 4: that's what's happening here, and that's the reason why people 1722 01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:31,920 Speaker 4: are so ugrly. 1723 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:35,280 Speaker 1: Right, Jeff Crossman, I think you've have mentioned when I 1724 01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:36,920 Speaker 1: had you on last on the show. I think you said, Hey, 1725 01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 1: if we got to take this all the way to 1726 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, we'll do that. There's no time on that, obviously, 1727 01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 1: But is there a particular to legal theory, because you're 1728 01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:47,360 Speaker 1: always planning ahead for these things too. A legal theory 1729 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 1: in particular gives your best shot at getting the court 1730 01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:51,400 Speaker 1: to take the case. Have you thought that far ahead? 1731 01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:54,920 Speaker 4: We have one case that's currently spending in the six 1732 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:57,160 Speaker 4: Circuit Court of Appeals right there at Cincinnati. We had 1733 01:24:57,200 --> 01:24:59,320 Speaker 4: followed one case in federal court and the other cases 1734 01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:03,679 Speaker 4: spending court. So we're constantly evaluating our case and legal theories, 1735 01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:05,680 Speaker 4: and you know we're going to take the best packboard 1736 01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:06,960 Speaker 4: until we win. 1737 01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, what is the timeline here? What's the next step 1738 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:10,040 Speaker 1: from the court. 1739 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 4: We're waiting on the court to make a decision. I 1740 01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:14,640 Speaker 4: think it's any day that the Court's going to come 1741 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 4: out with an opinion on these junctions should last through 1742 01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:20,599 Speaker 4: the conclusion of the case. If that's the case, then 1743 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:23,960 Speaker 4: we'll continue litigating this and we're you know, state has 1744 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,320 Speaker 4: the option of we're evaluating a position. 1745 01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 1: I know what you're hoping for, but what what do 1746 01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 1: you think actually happens there? 1747 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:34,479 Speaker 4: Any You know, I'm practicing law too long that it's 1748 01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:38,000 Speaker 4: the day to enter a prediction. Uh, you know, you 1749 01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:42,160 Speaker 4: know human beings aren't computer formulas rights right? 1750 01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:43,880 Speaker 1: Well, this day and age, though, you know, we have 1751 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,080 Speaker 1: these ancillary betting markets where we can go and bet 1752 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,360 Speaker 1: on anything. How long this conversation is going to go 1753 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,600 Speaker 1: someone maybe betting on that they can maybe make some 1754 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,559 Speaker 1: money off it too. So it's interesting we kind of 1755 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 1: have that wager going on. But I would think that 1756 01:25:57,439 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 1: they're you know, obviously very very smart people in the court. Look, 1757 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:02,120 Speaker 1: and I going, well, if we just release this money 1758 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,839 Speaker 1: and it gets shot down by the Supreme Court, then 1759 01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:07,600 Speaker 1: we are literally opening up a Pandora's box. It's like 1760 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,000 Speaker 1: the tariff thing all over again, and that should scare 1761 01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:10,759 Speaker 1: anyone listening. 1762 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:14,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, we've made the best argument we think we 1763 01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:18,759 Speaker 4: can to justify our position, and we think the safe 1764 01:26:18,760 --> 01:26:21,320 Speaker 4: of that here is to just hold everything in place. 1765 01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:25,200 Speaker 4: Let's continue to litigate this and get to the meat 1766 01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:26,719 Speaker 4: of it and see where we landed. 1767 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:30,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're thinking any day. 1768 01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 4: And look, I mean to your point, I mean, people 1769 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:38,960 Speaker 4: are basically brought that. The Browns started digging Monday, so 1770 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,439 Speaker 4: you know, ground had broken on the stadium construction. We 1771 01:26:42,479 --> 01:26:44,559 Speaker 4: think that the stadium is going to get regardless of 1772 01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:47,439 Speaker 4: what the state jack. Six hundred million dollars. People can 1773 01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 4: claiming fun right. 1774 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,040 Speaker 1: Right, Well, I mean, you know, taking this thing back. 1775 01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:52,920 Speaker 1: We wouldn't even be having this discussion if they just 1776 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:54,559 Speaker 1: would have said, you know what, we're going to add 1777 01:26:54,560 --> 01:26:58,240 Speaker 1: just a little bit more tax to online wagering, e 1778 01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 1: gaming and the like. It's like a slam donkey. Yet 1779 01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:04,000 Speaker 1: they didn't want to do that. Doing this is way 1780 01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:05,840 Speaker 1: more perilous legally speaking than. 1781 01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:10,799 Speaker 4: That raising taxes or using the box the state bonding capacity. 1782 01:27:10,880 --> 01:27:13,920 Speaker 4: Those are public policy determinations where you know, folks like 1783 01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:16,960 Speaker 4: me wouldn't have been really any reason to challenge that 1784 01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:22,519 Speaker 4: process where you're implicating constitutional concern you're taking people's property 1785 01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:26,600 Speaker 4: without any due process, any right to object, you know, 1786 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:30,519 Speaker 4: without any public purpose. That's where it opens the door 1787 01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:33,080 Speaker 4: for people like me to just file legal challenges. And 1788 01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:34,920 Speaker 4: the governor was aware that when he signed it, was 1789 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:37,599 Speaker 4: disappointed that he would even put the state of that position. 1790 01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:40,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like it's a much harder road what 1791 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,599 Speaker 1: we're doing here than it would have been going after 1792 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 1: the gaming, taxing them another half a percent or whatever 1793 01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:48,599 Speaker 1: it was, and other states are taxing much more. So 1794 01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 1: it's this is the least effects offensive tax I would guess, 1795 01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:54,839 Speaker 1: in my opinion, would be the gaming thing, as opposed 1796 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,600 Speaker 1: to going after unclaimed funds. He's Jeff Crossman. He's a 1797 01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:00,679 Speaker 1: lead counsel in this case involving unclaimed funds in Ohio. 1798 01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:03,120 Speaker 1: So if you have money in that account, you probably 1799 01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:06,520 Speaker 1: get online and check and make sure you don't. Otherwise 1800 01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:08,679 Speaker 1: it could very well be in the hands of the Browns, 1801 01:28:09,040 --> 01:28:12,479 Speaker 1: the Bengals, FC, the Reds, the mud Hens, and whatever 1802 01:28:12,520 --> 01:28:15,639 Speaker 1: other team wants a stadium built with your your cash.
