She shared some stuff with me 14 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 3: last night which I'm sharing with the family. She and 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 3: Riley had a private conversation and Riley told her. He goes, 16 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: you know, you're my favorite person, and she goes really, 17 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 3: and he goes, no, no, wait a minute, you're my 18 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 3: second favorite person. And she goes, well, okay, well who's 19 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 3: your favorite and he goes, my mom, So. 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: That's the kid we're looking for. What time was that? 21 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: What time was that? 22 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 3: What we know and we have put together the last 23 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 3: thing that the phone did. We think that is the 24 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 3: last conversation, and she is the last person to have 25 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 3: any correspondence with him. She had asked him if he 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: was having a good time, and he had responded with 27 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 3: good lops lops, which was really confusing for her. She's young, 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 3: and she's like, wow, new slang. I don't so you 29 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: said her and her mom actually googled it. 30 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: It's probably writing lots lots well. 31 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 3: But the funny part with Riley if you ever communicated 32 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 3: with his phone, the kid was extremely punctual, even if 33 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: he had had a few beers in exclamation points emojis. 34 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: I mean, he was very punctual kid, a very intelligent kid. 35 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 3: So that correspondence really was odd that you know that 36 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 3: was said. 37 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 2: Could you tell me one more time what it said? 38 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 2: I want to make sure I understand. 39 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 3: What it said, good l ops lots. 40 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Did he ever dictate into his phone? 41 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 2: No, so he would have typed that, and he was 42 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: on foot at night walking. I would think that meant 43 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 2: good lots lots of fun. I'm very intrigued by what 44 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: he was saying when he talked to her. He seemed 45 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: to have his wits about him. Chris, what do you 46 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: think about this homeless encampment? And you know, I heard 47 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: doctor Bethanie talking about how peace loving and sharing the 48 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: homeless community is. I'm not necessarily agreeing with that, but 49 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: what do the parents think about that we have? 50 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 3: We actually have two volunteers that have literally been sleeping 51 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: in the homeless camps that were not homeless, to give 52 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 3: you an ideal of what we are going to and 53 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: the outpouring of people in it. As a dad, it 54 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 3: scares the crap out of me that they're there. We've 55 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 3: got their phone's paying, they're doing recordings. Yes, I think 56 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: there's extremely viable information there. This is information for everybody 57 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 3: in this group at the moment. The crazy thing is 58 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 3: is when the TikTok crew hit there, they were already 59 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 3: coming to Nashville to protest what the House had done 60 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: trying to ban TikTok. We had no ideal that there 61 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: was that huge of a group of TikTokers. They had 62 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 3: picked Nashville to come to Nashville to protest, signs and everything. 63 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: I was blessed to get in touch with three or 64 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: four of them and wow, here we are. Just you know, 65 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 3: I made the comment, we're bigger than Tiger King during Corona. 66 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: We do have people that are physically in the camps. 67 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: There are a few people of interest that the police 68 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: are aware of and they are looking for, but homeless 69 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 3: people ninety nine percent of them do not want to 70 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: be found. They don't want to be bothered. 71 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: What did you just say? Police are looking for? 72 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 3: Who people are looking The police are looking for a 73 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 3: few homeless people that we do have questions for. The 74 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 3: young lady from Nashville iterated that, you know, one of 75 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 3: the homeless interviews had yelled back up the hill to 76 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 3: the gentleman, you know, hey, what's going on? And he 77 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 3: goes nothing. It's a drunk guy. We have the name 78 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 3: of that gentleman and we are looking for him. 79 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: What happened. 80 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, when everybody went to that specific area and we 81 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 3: have a very limited ground zero for information, a lot 82 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: of those homeless that was there that evening dispersed and 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 3: went to other homeless camps in Nashville because they didn't 84 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: want the press, didn't want to be talked to, didn't 85 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 3: want to be seen. We've been blessed with the homeless 86 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 3: people that we have been in contact with, though they 87 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 3: know where those camps are. They've given us names of 88 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: specific people that they knew was in that street or 89 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: that area or that exact camp. There's actually a I'm 90 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 3: not sure they're a married couple, but they are a 91 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 3: couple that was just down from there about ten feet. 92 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 3: The onlyady from Nashville shall know the couple I'm talking about. 93 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 3: Probably they're the ones that you know yelled back up. 94 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 3: But we have names. But right now we're just trying 95 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 3: to find which camp they went to and what direction 96 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: they went to. 97 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 2: I understand that two groups of homeless encampment state that 98 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 2: they saw Riley. 99 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 3: Yes, somebody had mentioned about across the river at the 100 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 3: Titan Stadium.
