1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: All right, we do have more information on the arrest 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: of the founder of FTX, the crypto exchange company that's 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: in bankruptcy. Crypto Grow elapsed yep, Sam bankman Fried was 4 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: arrested in the Bahamas. He was supposed to appear before 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: Congress tomorrow, although the story came out today he wanted 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: to do it remotely. Maybe that had something to do 7 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: with them saying maybe we ought to move in on him. 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: He was arrested by Bahamian authorities. We'll talk about that 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: coming up later on this hour. But they do have 10 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: an indictment here in the US. Yes, this is incoperating 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: the Southern District of New York. I had an indictment, right, 12 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: all right, Now we're gonna talk with Blake Trolley because 13 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: so a lot. Today was an exciting day. Karen Bass 14 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: declared a state of emergency her first full day in office. Eric, 15 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: When I say state of emergency, we need the siren, 16 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: all right, people have to know they meant they might be, 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, zoning out when we talk. Sounds like an 18 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: air raiding thing. Man, there we go, submarine diving, right. 19 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: A state of emergency for homelessness here in the city 20 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: of Los Angeles. Let's get to Blake Trolley. He's our emergency. Yeah, 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: we're fine. So what what was this today? Yeah, so 22 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: the mayor held a press conference this morning talking about 23 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: this state of emergency. This was something that she campaigned 24 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: on as part of her strategy to address homelessness. She 25 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: was somewhat vague on the exacts when rolling out the plan, 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: but big picture, as it's been described to me is 27 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: this is really an effort to cut red tape. But 28 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: she was talking about, you know, putting through this state 29 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: of emergency. She mentioned building permits as something that she's 30 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: hoping to expedite as part of this. Now, you know, 31 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: as she was giving I want to go to this SoundBite, 32 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: she took a She immediately used this press conference to 33 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: take an aim at the current homeless situation. I will 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: not accept a homelessness crisis that afflicts more than four 35 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: thousand Angelinos and affects every one of us. It is 36 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: a humanitarian crisis that takes the life of five people 37 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: every day in every neighborhood. We can see the failures 38 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: of the status quo, despair, desperation, human suffering, and our 39 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: children are growing up knowing nothing else than this it 40 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: must stop and change starts now, yeah, now, she says. 41 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 1: She says she held a meeting this morning with city 42 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: department managers and asked them where the roadblocks are. So again, 43 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, I think there's this is kind of a 44 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: two part move. One it's symbolic of how she views 45 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: the issue, and then also again big picture here hoping 46 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: to cut some red tape and expedite the processes of 47 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: solving some of these issues. I spoke to Council President 48 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: paulk Recording about this because, as you guys know, this 49 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: is not an effect just yet. The City Council will 50 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: have to vote on whether or not they want to 51 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: approve this tomorrow. If they approve this, this into effect 52 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: for six months. But the city Council has you know, 53 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 1: every thirty days will be taking a vote on whether 54 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: or not they want to keep it keep it in effect. 55 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: So there's no occian. I'm sorry, but there's no specific 56 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: explanation what they're going to do. Cut red tape. I've 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: heard a thousand times in my life from everybody in office. 58 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: At the end of everyone's term, there's more red tape, 59 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: there's more regulations, it's more difficult to get anything done. 60 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: So what specifically is being streamlined here exactly? Well, again, 61 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: building permits was about the only thing we heard today, John, 62 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: and questions, quite honestly, seemed a little bit short. You know, 63 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: I didn't even get to ask a question. They went 64 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: to a few reporters and said that's it. And it's 65 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: so funny you're asking this because this was exactly my question. 66 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: I was saying, well, what exactly? And then I went 67 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: and talked to spokespeople and I actually had sent an email. 68 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: One of them said, we'll send it to me in 69 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: an email. You know, this is a new administration, so 70 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: this is day one of handling these types of inquiries. 71 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: But still I sent an email this morning and I 72 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: haven't heard back yet, you know, on the exacts. So anyways, 73 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: paulker Corey and Council President paulker Corey and I want 74 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: to go to this sound by heat He explains it 75 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: a little bit better. Essentially, what some of this red 76 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: tape cutting could look like. Government procurement is a complicated process. 77 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: Under normal circumstances, you have to put out a request 78 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: for a proposal, you have to get competitive bids, you 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: have to do a number of steps appropriately. It's appropriate, 80 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: the government does that, but in an emergency situation, when 81 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: time is of the essence, sometimes you don't have six 82 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: months or a year to go through a whole procurement process. 83 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: You need to get something taken care of now, like 84 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: the temporary housing that she's talked about, you know, the 85 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: master releasing and those other things, just in order to 86 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: get out of the way any of those concerns about 87 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: bureaucratic delays. This resolution will take care of that. She'll 88 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: be able to move forward. And they couldn't do this 89 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: the last five years when things started really going to hell. 90 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: Well yeah, and you know, just so you are aware, 91 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: this is one of two major steps she's announcing towards 92 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: homelessness this week. She says she is planning to announce 93 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: a new housing program this week. That program would come 94 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: down to master releasing of motels from what she's indicated 95 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: earlier today. And you know, I've been asked about a 96 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: price tag about all of this stuff, you know, she 97 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: kind of it was interesting somebody had asked her about 98 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: the price and she kind of tied it into that 99 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: new program, saying all of this would be under one 100 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. But again, more questions we're going to 101 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: have to clear up when she makes that announcement on 102 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: the program, we'll be able to maybe clarify that. I 103 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: have a question suggestion for you, as you continue to 104 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: cover these events, ask them what they're gonna do if 105 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: people continue to come from around the country buy the thousands, 106 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: Because a lot of the homeless here in La County 107 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: have come from elsewhere. They got on buses and they 108 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: come here. So while they're buying motels and hotels and 109 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: building expensive housing shelters, what are they going to do 110 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: if they keep coming off the greyhound buses in downtown 111 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: La It's a very fit. Yeah, and it's a very 112 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: fair question. It's you know, it's as if we're footing 113 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: the bill and setting up kind of almost a lure 114 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: for some of these issues. And in Tabas's credit, she 115 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,559 Speaker 1: has talked about that, you know, needing a multi level 116 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: government approach given that this issue does not you know, 117 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: as she said, this issue does not end at Citi's borders. 118 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: It doesn't end at the county's border. She alluded to 119 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: that yesterday during her inaugural speech. So yeah, you know, 120 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: can she I think the question is can she with 121 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: her experience in Congress, you know, figure out a way 122 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: to really get a multi level approach to this. If not, Yeah, 123 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: it seems like, you know, as a city issue, it's 124 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: it's it's definitely above a city's abilities. All right, Blake, Yeah, 125 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: you you continue on this emergency beat here? All right? 126 00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: Aything dramatic happens. Please contact us immediately, will do as 127 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: long as we get that that alert sound. That's right, 128 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: play it again. So there we go. Yeah, they're in 129 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: a homeless emergency here in Los Angeles. Scary Haaren Bass 130 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: has a written declaration she's gonna cut red take. Did 131 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: you hear what Kirkorean said in the middle of that, No, 132 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: that it takes a year to buy anything for curement 133 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: is a fancy word for purchase to buy. What are 134 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: they gonna buy buy a house? I don't know, but 135 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: he says normally it takes, you know, six months a year. 136 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, what in the world takes a year 137 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: to buy. There's nothing in my life that's taken even 138 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: six months to purchase. Nothing. Problem is not going to 139 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: be solved with more money. That doesn't work. We talked 140 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: about this last week. Remember we talked about supermeth and 141 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: fentnel and what we're dealing with out there now, it's 142 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: gonna take conservativeship to get the worst of the worst 143 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: off the streets. I mean, here's her tweet today. I 144 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: just declared a state of emergency on homelessness to unlock 145 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: every tool an authority at our disposal to bring unhoused. 146 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: Angelino's inside. This is a matter of life and death. 147 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: That's exactly how my administration will treat it. To me, 148 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: that's that reeks of housing first. Yeah, well that's that's 149 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: she is from that ilk. She's right, Yeah, she's the 150 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: same thing. It's the same way, and all these politicians 151 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: that have failed in California the same way, the nonsense 152 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: of housing first when you're dealing with so many problems 153 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: with these homeless people. But you look at the coverage 154 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: of the campaign and the coverage of her inauguration for 155 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: in the el Segunder Times and everything must she's a 156 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: black woman, she's the first black woman. It's like, yeah, 157 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: that's great, But if she's gonna build housing first, the 158 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: city's doomed. Why does anybody care about gender and color? 159 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: And they don't look at what she's going to do. 160 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: She never gave an indication that she was going to 161 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,319 Speaker 1: get the people off the street quickly, especially the ones 162 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: who are psychologically damaged and whacked out on math and 163 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: fentonhel See what we learned from that they have lost 164 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: they're instinct for self preservation, and if that's gone, you 165 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: can't expect them to come and get help and change 166 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: their lives on their own.

He did this interview with Twitter spaces 216 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: the other day and he said, yeah, it's because a 217 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: fear that I'm gonna be drowning in paparazzi.

During the interview, there was strange 221 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: clicking sounds, so finally he admitted he was sitting there 222 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: playing video games as he conducted the interview. This is 223 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: a child, thirty year old, like eight year old. Yeah, no, 224 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: it's uh. That's what he always used to do when 225 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: he would meet with potential investors. He would meet with 226 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: anybody who was wanted to be a part of his empire. 227 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: He would talk with them over zoom while playing video games. 228 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: And these people still either invested millions with him or 229 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: were or deposited millions in his crypto accounts. It's it's 230 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: it's shocking. And you look at him and he's this 231 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: big Harry slab. Let's get that him like like a 232 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: wig on his head, that black hair. I know, you 233 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: see him. He's always wearing a T shirt and shorts. 234 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: You saw him walk on the street and say, oh, 235 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: guy looks like a homeless person. It's like a boo, 236 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: But yeah he is. He is a big stupid bozo. 237 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: But what did he say he did. He talked about 238 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: all the woke issues. You talk about woke issues. You're cool. Hey, 239 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: you know you wear a T shirt and shorts. Apparently 240 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: there was not a lot of hygiene going on in 241 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: that apartment with the nine other roommates. That's what they said. 242 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: You walk in there, it's like whoo. So yeah, so 243 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: he didn't bathe, he didn't wear any clothes beyond a 244 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: T shirt and shorts. He didn't pay attention when he 245 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: talked with you because he's playing video games. Sure, i'll 246 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: give you tens of millions of dollars as an investment. 247 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: You're a genius because you're woke. You're If you're woke, 248 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: you're better than I am. There apparently was a back 249 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: and forth here between the Bahamas government and FTX. The 250 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: United States is pursuing criminal charges against Sam bankman Free individually, 251 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: but the Bahamas is looking into its own criminal and 252 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: regulatory investigations, and apparently earlier today, FTX attorneys have accused 253 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: the Bahamian government of allegedly working with bankman Free to 254 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: spirit away FTX access assets from company control and into 255 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: crypto wallets controlled by Bahamian regulators. So they're trying to 256 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: make sure that they get back what they may have 257 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: invested in FTX, because obviously in a bankruptcy, everything eventually 258 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: does gets dispersed and you often don't get much on 259 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: the dollar or whatever you had invested in the company. 260 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: So they're they're claiming that the Bahamas regulators are trying 261 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: to pull a fast one here by getting their share 262 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: of whatever they put into the company. Yeah, this was 263 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: probably a big deal in the Bahamas. It's not a 264 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: very big place, and now the company like FTX, was 265 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: probably a big deal to have their big guys there. 266 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: That whole region wanted to collectively become the hub for 267 00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: crypto Miami. The mayor made Claire, he was welcoming tack 268 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico as well, and a lot of these guys 269 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: bought all kinds of palaces and huge, huge acreage along 270 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: the beaches in Miami Miami area and in Puerto Rico 271 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: and the Bahamas because they wanted to get something for 272 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: the crypto money just in case the whole thing blew up. 273 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: All these guys knew there was a chance all this 274 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: blows up, so you have to turn the crypto money 275 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: into something hard like real estate. And in case you're 276 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: curious to Bahamas in the US do have an extradition 277 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: treaty that's been in place since the early twentieth century 278 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: when the Bahamas was under British control. The current treaty 279 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: was signed in nineteen ninety, so it seems like they 280 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: have worked out away for the Bahamas to hold on 281 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: to Sam Bankman Freed until he gets extra dotted into 282 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: New York to face there. As John said, they're going 283 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: to open the indictment tomorrow with the details of the 284 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: criminal case against Sam Bankman Freed. More coming up on 285 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: the John and Ken Show, kf I AM sixty Live Everywhere, 286 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio appright coming up after five o'clock, we'll give 287 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: you our take on the Chaos City Council with the 288 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: disgraced but still la City council member Kevin Leone facing 289 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: off with an activist at a Christmas toy event Friday 290 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: nights in Lincoln Heights. We'll get to all of that 291 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 1: after the news at five o'clock. We turn now to 292 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: the Idaho college student killings. There's a couple of developments 293 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: to talk about. The man that's doing a lot of 294 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: speaking is not with the police or the FBI. It 295 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: is Stephen and Gonkelvs, who is the father of one 296 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: of the four students murdered. Her name was Kaylee, and 297 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: he has shared with the media what he was told 298 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: by the coroner that these victims, some of them were 299 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: not just stabbed, they were almost fillayed, big open gouges 300 00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: on their body. He said, a sadistic mail killed them. 301 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: He said he spoke to the coroner, Kathym Butt, who said, Sir, 302 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: I don't think stabs is the right word. It was 303 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,120 Speaker 1: like tears, like this was a strong weapon, not like 304 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: a stab. She said. These were big, open gouges. She said, 305 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: it was quick. These weren't something where you're going to 306 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 1: be able to call nine one one. They weren't going 307 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: to slowly bleed out. And apparently he described how his 308 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: beloved daughter's liver and lungs were slashed by the killer. 309 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: That may explain why there was so much blood, even 310 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: that some leak to the outside of the house. Right, 311 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: because this was savage, okay, And that is why they 312 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: mentioned that this guy must have been comfortable with cutting 313 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: open something right and right, because yeah, it was like 314 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: he was preparing gutting an animal, an animal. That's that's 315 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: pretty common in Idaho, I would imagine, yeah, I think, 316 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: And he had the right knife for something like gutting 317 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: an animal, and that's what he used on these four. 318 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: Although the father continues to insist that while his daughter 319 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: was in bed with her friend to Mogan, who was 320 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: also stabbed to death, their injuries were not even close 321 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: to matching. Maybe that was normal stabbing, So he may 322 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: have really been after Kaylee, yeah, more than he was 323 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: after her friend in the bed. Now. The other two 324 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: was the male and the female Ethan Shatement and Coronel. 325 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: They were in bed on another floor of the house. 326 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: And these two, he said, did have the defensive wounds. 327 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: They went through a hell of a battle to try 328 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: to survive, So maybe the screaming from the second floor 329 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: woke them up. What about those other two female roommates 330 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: got nothing out of this. I don't know where they 331 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 1: wear earblugs or I don't know he never went downstairs. 332 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: What I read is you could access the second floor 333 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: from the back because the house was built on a 334 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: slope and the backyard was higher than the front yard, 335 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: so you could walk up to a short stairway and 336 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: get into the second floor. And I guess this killer 337 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: knew that at least that's that's what's leaked out that 338 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: that may have been the way they got in. He's 339 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: not happy with the police. He thinks that being cowards, 340 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: they need to tell people they could be in danger. 341 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 1: Whoever done whoever did this as a certain amount of 342 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: strength to deliver these injuries. There are girls walking around 343 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: the street right now that deserve to know they should 344 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: be looking out for a very sadistic mail is what 345 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: the fathers, Well, it's it's it's a month now. It's 346 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: happened November thirteenth, and today's December twelfth, so it's a 347 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: full month, and I think it's time that they they 348 00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: unleash all the information they have. The online sleoths targeted 349 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 1: another man by the name of James Curtis Leonard, who 350 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: does live in Moscow, Idaho, and apparently he assaulted his 351 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: wife and daughter recently and slashed himself with a knife. 352 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: He's also a convicted murderer. In two seventy he was 353 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: found guilty of manslaughter when he shot and killed Tyler 354 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: Lee outside of his house in Genesee, Idaho. The wife 355 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: of this man has done an interview with The Daily 356 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: Mail to say he had nothing to do with the 357 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: college student murderers. There's a lot of crazy stuff going on, 358 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: but my husband had nothing to do with what happened 359 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: up there, she said, and it's really starting to tick 360 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: her off. He is being held one hundred thousand dollars 361 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: bail for the attack on his family. Police have also 362 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: declared they don't think he had anything to do with 363 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: the Idaho kill. It's not linked at all. This is 364 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: really kissing me off. People on the internet are trying 365 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: to pin the murders on him. I had to get 366 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: off that social media bleep. She said. She was with 367 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: him at the time of the November thirteenth massacre and 368 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: he ended up leaving for work at seven am that day. 369 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: She is quite certain he is not the killer of 370 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: the college too now. He shot and killed the guy 371 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: in oh seven manslaughter charge. He said it was self defense, 372 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: said the other guy, Tyler Lee, used to threaten him 373 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: with bats and machetes and other things. Took a plea 374 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: deal in exchange for a five to fifteen years sentence. 375 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: He never really went to prison. They suspended his sentence 376 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: shortly after the plea deal and he was put on 377 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: fifteen years probation, but darently the disagreement they had was well. 378 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: She said he drank half a bottle of gin and 379 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: became heavily intoxicated, accused me of cheating on him, yelled 380 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: at me in front of our kids, ages twenty and fifteen. Also, 381 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,239 Speaker 1: the daughter's twenty one year old boyfriend and one year 382 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: old grandchild were there, and he went to his room 383 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: and began cutting himself. When his wife checked out him, 384 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: he allegedly punched her. He also allegedly beat up the 385 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: fifteen year old, who was later found with a concussion. 386 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: So this is why this guy made the news and 387 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: got people's attention. He's got a knife, he's a killer. 388 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 1: That's quite quite an evening. He ye, well, I can 389 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: see why he attracted some suspicion. The wife said he 390 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 1: was depressed the other night. He drank a little more 391 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: than he should have. He didn't take his hand in depressants. 392 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: That's what triggered him. The whole night was just a 393 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: big mess. It should have never have happened. This may 394 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: surprise you, but apparently they live in a trailer park. Yeah, 395 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: real shock. Meanwhile, a retired Moscow police captain by the 396 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: name of Paul Quintakowski said he thinks for sure the 397 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: Idaho murderer knew at least one of the victims, and 398 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: this must be about revenge. And based on what the 399 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: father of Cayley said, because she had those big open 400 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: gouge wounds. Yeah, and I think they were the first 401 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 1: to get killed. I think that's whoever was looking for 402 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: someone was probably looking for her because her friend in 403 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: the bed with her was not stabbed that severely, exact 404 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: ripped open. Okay, So what's what's her? So they ought 405 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: to be looking closely at Kaylee's. Was she the one 406 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: that they thought had a stalker? Which turned out there? 407 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: I think it was her they turned out down true though, 408 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: So what's what's the dating life? Like? She had a 409 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: boyfriend she broke up with? Was she dating a new guy? 410 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 1: Did she have a stalker? And I forget which is 411 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: the one that had the on and off again boyfriend 412 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 1: that they were calling. Remember all the calls that went 413 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 1: to him, he was asleep Apparently I don't know it 414 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 1: was her or her or her friend in the bed 415 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: with her, but one of them was calling a man 416 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: that evening like twelve times, but he was asleep. According 417 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: to his mother and they've cleared him too. Of course, remember, 418 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: just because they cleared somebody doesn't mean the case and 419 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: come back around. That doesn't mean you're cleared forever. They 420 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: may just not have enough right now to charge you 421 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: with anything. So, you know, just I think the word 422 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: clear it is thrown out there too quickly. Maybe, yeah, 423 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: I mean sometimes they do that also to throw the 424 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: killer off. I think. Let me see here about about 425 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: what you said about. Yeah, there's one of the students 426 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: nine calls to ex boyfriend. Yeah, somebody named Jack, I 427 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: think his name was. Yeah. Let me see so was 428 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: that was that the Mogan girl? Or is k he was? No? 429 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 1: It says people have vilified Jack Decor online, the ex 430 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: boyfriend of murder victim Kaylee guns Is Kyle. Multiple calls 431 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: are made to the ex boyfriend, ending at two fifty 432 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: two am. They do not believe the ex boyfriend is 433 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: a suspect um. Two of the victims called Decor repeatedly 434 00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: throughout the night. Kaylee and Natty did call Jack nine times. Oh. 435 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: Kayley called Jack six times from two twenty six and 436 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: two forty four. From two forty four to two fifty two, 437 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: Maddie calls Jack three times than Kayley calls it two 438 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: fifty two. Yeah, that that man's mother said he was 439 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: just asleep. He just didn't answer. And then there is 440 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: to it what they were trying to ask him. We 441 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: don't know I wanted from him. Yeah, mom's telling the truth. 442 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: Now had his mom No, wasn't mom asleep? How would 443 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: she know if her son was asleep? I'm serious. Well, 444 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 1: she's she's tracking the timeline of the calls, and police 445 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: asked and just said he was not awake. But you're right, 446 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: he may not. She was not awake either. Now, well, 447 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: isn't that a weird coincidence? Though they're both frantically calling 448 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: him nine times. I know this is not long before 449 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: they were murdered, apparently, And yeah, three am, two thirty 450 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: three am, something like that. It was all right, we 451 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: got more coming up, Johnny ken KF I AM six 452 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: forty live everywhere the iHeartRadio ASP.

It's official after 455 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,959 Speaker 1: multiple luggage staff charges. Very strange story that popped up 456 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: the Pocket of Energy. A top nuclear waste official who 457 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: also identifies as non binary. Right, we're in a series 458 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: of interesting outfits. Lipstick. Sam Brinton is no longer a 459 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: DOE employee. By law, the Department of Energy cannot comment 460 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: further on personnel matters, but of course his deals with 461 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: not one but two luggage staff stories, one in Minneapolis 462 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: and one in Las Vegas had just popped up the 463 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: other day. Yeah, I'm sure he was the best candidate 464 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: for the job. I guess they've had their at their 465 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: fill of that. Now this story, we're just talking about 466 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: the Idaho college student murders. We got a trial that's 467 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: starting up down the south of US in the area 468 00:27:54,960 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: of Solano Beach, California. A butterfly activist, butterfly activists, butterfly activist, 469 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: people saying, oh, they wouldn't hurt a butterfly, Well maybe 470 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: she wouldn't. A butterfly activist is accused of drugging and 471 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: strangling her former stepfather after finding nude photos of herself 472 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: on his computer. That's quite a story. What now, how 473 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: is he a former stepfather or it could be that 474 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: her mother divorced him or something, or I would guess, yeah, 475 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: the woman is if he's dead, he's also former the 476 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: woman's name is Jade Jenks, Jaye Jenks, Jade Jenks, and 477 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: he she killed Thomas Merriman. They found his body last 478 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: year under a pilot trash oh in the house, and 479 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: prosecutor said he died of an overdose of sleeping pills 480 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: that Jenks gave him after she discovered the photos, one 481 00:28:54,560 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: of which he reportedly used as his screensaver. This was 482 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: no accident, according to the San Diego County Deputy DA 483 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: Jorge del Portillo. This was murdered by design. I don't 484 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: care how hot we think your stepdaughter is, you don't 485 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: turn one of her nude photos into a screen saver, 486 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: because yes, she's walking across the room. He left the 487 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: computer on and suddenly she's looking at her, at her 488 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: own nude body. So she lost it, and she came 489 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: up at this elaborate idea to poison him and then 490 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: strangle him. I guess. So the photo she was cleaning 491 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: her stepfather's apartment while he was hospitalized, and that's when 492 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: she found the photos that you're taking more than a 493 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: decade ago. It featured Jenks and her boyfriend having consensual thought. Oh, 494 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: and this is the screen saver for the guy for 495 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: the boyfriend's dad. Yes, his son and his girlfriend. No, 496 00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: not his son, his stepdaughter and her boyfriend. Oh, stepdaughter 497 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: and boyfriend, right, all right, his stepdaughter and her boyfriend 498 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: were having consensual relations. It's not clear how he got 499 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: these pictures. How did this stepfather get pictures of a 500 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: stepdaughter knew? Maybe from the boyfriend. Well, maybe she left 501 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: it around somewhere where he had access and he just 502 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: transferred it to himself. Yeah. Yeah, she found the photos 503 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: while cleaning the apartment and he'd been hospitalized. She texted 504 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: with another man about giving Merriman the pills. I see, 505 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: that's kind of damning evidence. Oh, listen to what she texted. 506 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: I just dosed the hell out of him, stopping for whiskey, 507 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: then at Dixie Dixie Land to stall. There you go, 508 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: she texted. The day she picked Merriman up from the hospital. 509 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: That's when she texted what John just read? Oh my god, 510 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: he's waking up was another text. I really don't want 511 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: to be the one to do this. I'm about to 512 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: club him on the head as he's waking up. She 513 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: eventually called another person for help. That person called the cops. 514 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: The next day, Deputy sent searched the home and found 515 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: Merriman's body under a pile of boxes, blankets, and other 516 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: trash as they were as they were leaving. This is 517 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 1: a butterfly activist. Also she does interior design. It looks 518 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: like Yanks interiors the research nonprofit Butterfly Flow Farmsterflies are 519 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: very nice out there in my creature list. Yeah, I 520 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: mean ladybugs and butterfly. She is a very attractive woman. Um. 521 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: Her attorney says, you will not find any evidence he 522 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: was strangled to death, and we think he just died 523 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: from poor health and his own cocktail of drugs that 524 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: did n't So that's what the jury is going to 525 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: have to determine. Yeah, it's happened over a year, but 526 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: those those texts are very incriminating. I just goosed the 527 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: hell out of him. Well maybe because he was franky 528 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: and he was just out of the hospital. He just 529 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: needed a little you know, I'm about to club him 530 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: on the head. That's I don't know, that's uh. So 531 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: she's cleaning up his apartment while he's hospitalized. She finds 532 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,239 Speaker 1: the screensaver and photos of herself, and she comes up 533 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: with this plan. When he gets out of the hospital, 534 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: that's it. I'm gonna dose him. Then I'm gonna take 535 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: naked photos of yourself. Don't let anyone take naked photos 536 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: of you.

Why would you want to share? 539 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: Because it's another way of exposing yourself, like you know, 540 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: it's exactly.
