So when I 7 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: think of a neo natal doctor, I think the women 8 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: and men, the doctors, the nurses, the crew that saved 9 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: my children's life, many of whom I'm still in touch with. 10 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: I really don't think of a neo natal doctor being 11 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: taken down by the FBI after trying to find someone 12 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: on the dark Web to kidnap and drug.

Hold on 62 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: doctor Sherry Schwartz. Why is it that when the marriage 63 00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: goes sideways, everything else seemingly falters. So many times everything 64 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: went straight down the crapper. Why would you cheat on 65 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: your spouse when you have this wonderful family, You've got 66 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: a great job, you've got a great wife, you've got 67 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: a three year old child. Why. Yeah, it doesn't seemed 68 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: like he had absolutely everything going for him. He was 69 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: a well respected doctor. We had heard glowing reviews from, 70 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, some of the families he had worked with, 71 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: some of these babies that he had had saved, and 72 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: he really let everything that he had going for him, 73 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: everything in the world, just go. And you know, do you, 74 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: James Daniels. People always say, oh, Nancy Grace hates man. 75 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: That's not true. We love man. I just don't like 76 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: men that commit felonies. That's my problem with men. So 77 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: James Daniels I'm just gonna go to you and just 78 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: got Morgan and Dan shilling what is wrong with men? 79 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong. Well, there 80 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: is something wrong with this guy. He's got the first wife, 81 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: they get a divorce. Now, at the beginning, I'd say, well, 82 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: it was probably fifty fifty. But then you get the 83 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: second wife, and then they get a divorce, and they've 84 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 1: got a three year old son, and I'm starting to wonder, Wow, 85 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: what's the common connection between all this? It's him, you 86 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: know what? Hold on just a moment, Jackie playcutsy missus 87 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: ILG proceeds with the divorce, even as Ronald I begs 88 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: his wife to make their relationship work her him and 89 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: his girlfriend. According to the stop right there? Did you 90 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: hear that, James Daniels. Now you just said there's nothing wrong, 91 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: but he wants to have his wife work out the marriage, 92 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: the relationship between him, her and his girlfriend. Yeah, there's 93 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: definitely something wrong with him. I was just saying men 94 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: in general. So yeah, clearly he's got some serious issues 95 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: going on. Look, I'm not saying women don't cheat, but 96 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: and of course this is anecdotal, but as she willcott, 97 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: I've got a very very strong suspicion, a strong belief 98 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: that more men cheat and break up the marriage. I 99 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: will tell you it sure us feel that way and 100 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: seem that way. And I feel like when men cheat, 101 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: they go big. They don't just I kiss someone, take 102 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: O big and they just take what they want. Yeah, 103 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: why can't you have a not that I approve of this. 104 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't want you to a fleeting affair. Keep it 105 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: to yourself. Don't consess to your wife and ruin the 106 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: relationship and end up in a divorce. Now, see that 107 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: goes against everything I believe about being completely honest. But 108 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: I remember, you know, doctor Sherry Schwartz, this may help 109 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: you in your practice as a psychologist. Do you remember, 110 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: dear Abby, Yes, because if you read, I remember it's 111 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: a little girl. When people still read the paper, we 112 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: would get the paper and I would always read to 113 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: your abbey, and about once a week some spouse would 114 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: write in I had a fleeing. I can't believe I did. 115 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: It was so stupid. I don't know what I was thinking. 116 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: I want to tell my wife, should I She's like, no, 117 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: just work on your marriage and don't do it again. 118 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: Don't drag her down, as I like to say, down 119 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: the crapper with you. Work on your marriage, make it better, 120 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: be the man she deserves, but don't burden her with 121 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: what you've done. You may not ever be able to 122 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: repair it. Now, you know, I don't know. I'm not 123 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 1: a shrike. I'm just a JD. But that makes sense 124 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: to me, you know, because if David jumped up and 125 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: told me I had an affair, well, he'd have to 126 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: go bye and they would ruin the whole family. But 127 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: I would have to do it exactly. And the thing 128 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: is with cheating, Men and women, by the way, tend 129 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: to cheat for different reasons. Women tend and this is 130 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: a generalization, but women tend to cheat for you know, 131 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: emotional reasons, maybe because their husband isn't there. And that 132 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: doesn't make it okay, I'm not making excuses. Men tend 133 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: to cheat more because it's a drive for sex, new 134 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: sex with somebody different. So basically, it doesn't matter if 135 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: the person is prettier, smarter, more educated, funnier. It's just 136 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: something strange. It's just something different, right exactly, And very 137 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: often the other woman inspected that. And now I'm hearing 138 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: it from an official forensic psychologist. Okay, you know what, guys, 139 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: somehow I'm gonna blame it on you. Jackie. We've gotten 140 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: off the course about what is wrong with men? Okay, 141 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 1: and according to James Daniels, nothing is wrong with men. Well, 142 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: there's something wrong with this guy.

A fight ensues, an agent say the 220 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: victim was able to record audio of Ild assaulting her 221 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: as she struggled to breathe. This is the girlfriend with 222 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: doctor Ild in Mexico. As the husband, doctor ILG tries 223 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: to order a hitman to do harm to his wife. 224 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: But let me understand something, he only got her, didn't 225 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: He wasn't her cell phone and her car and all 226 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: of her devices, right. He had said it was for 227 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: her own safety, even writing to her when she confronted him, 228 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: Sorry for caring. But she did find tracking devices and 229 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: her vehicles. It appears that he also put some sort 230 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: of you know, software tracking on her cell phone. He 231 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: tabs on her that way. And when the girlfriend found 232 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: this burner phone in Mexico, her initial thought, you know, 233 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: according to records and recent reports, is that it was 234 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: a phone to talk to other women. So initially she didn't, 235 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, suspect that it was tied to this dark web, 236 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: evil plot that he perhaps once again was, at least 237 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: in her mind, was trying to find someone else again. 238 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: So she thought the all the secretiveness and the burner 239 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: phones aside forth was because he was dating yet another woman. 240 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: That he had a wife, a mistress, and another girlfriend. 241 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: And we're starting to look for someone else. Yeah, yeah, 242 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: oh you know I feel that if I had to 243 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: look at my husband's emails and a cell phone activity 244 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: and figure out where he was, I just what a 245 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: horrible way to have to live, you know. To James Daniels, 246 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: Director investigations at blocktrace dot com, expert on the dark Web, 247 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: how do you download that type of treker? He had 248 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: a tchuker on his wife's cell phone, her car and more. 249 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: How do you do that and get away with it? Yeah? 250 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: I mean, in all honesty, you don't even need the 251 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: Dark Web to do that. Those type of applications are 252 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: available all over the depending upon you know exactly what 253 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: the person wants to do. A lot of them are 254 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: based around the concept of parents keeping tracks of their kids. 255 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: So these applications are built of, Hey, I want to 256 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: make sure my child safe. I want to make sure 257 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: everything's okay. So you can install software on their phones 258 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: that track every text message, every email, everything that happens. Again, 259 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: it's a safety precaution likely, but how do you How 260 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: would I not that I'm going to do it. Okay, 261 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: I'm not going to do it. But if I wanted 262 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: to download that or track my husband's cell phone movements. 263 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 1: How would I do it? I mean, it's just an 264 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: app that you download and you have it called on 265 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: the pot. So I would have to get his phone 266 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: and with his passcode and go online. I guess to 267 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: Google and type in track cell phone movements or track 268 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: cell phone key strokes to see what he's looking up. 269 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: And then you download it, and then how do you 270 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: read it? Usually what will you do? Was it will 271 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: output the information to an external source. Either it can 272 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: have an email sent to a designated email on a 273 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: daily basis, or they actually have dashboards that log into that. Ever, 274 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: and as far as going undetected these apps or software, 275 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: the user of the phone, like my husband would not 276 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: be able to look at his phone and tell that 277 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: there was this secret app. It's like a phantom app. 278 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: You can't see it when you look at the phone. 279 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: But how does that work on a car? Would you 280 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: just put a GPS tracker somewhere on the car? Is 281 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: that how he was figuring out where she was? James? Yeah, 282 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: I mean it's we use that law enforcement all the 283 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 1: time to standard prep all trackers on people's cars. But 284 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean those can be purchased again online. It effectively 285 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: uses like a cell phone to pay, and then that 286 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: cell phone will just basically tell you where the person's at. 287 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: And depending upon the type they use, a lot of 288 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: them just have a magnet with a phone and a 289 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: battery and you just sick it underneath the car in 290 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: a little pain and tell you where anybody's at it 291 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: at any kind as long as there's And again I'm 292 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: a JD, not an MD with a degree in psychiatry. 293 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: But if you've got to track your spouse that way, 294 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: just get a new one. Just get out, because already 295 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: there's no trust. I don't know how that can ever 296 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: be rebuilt.

You know, this is 350 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: about power and manipulation and control, and it seems to 351 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: revolve around sex and how he gets aroused. And imagine 352 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: how terrifying that is to most of the rest of 353 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: us that are reading this and hearing that.

But 359 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: it's not meant to be legally binding. It's meant to 360 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: be psychologically binding. And this is how you subordinate people 361 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: and you get them to do what you want. But 362 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: you know, in this case, bondage or bunkers, I mean, 363 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: those are private life things.

It's certainly 421 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: not immune to the FBI know. The dark web is 422 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: basically just a subset of the Internet, an area that 423 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: requires m specialized botler to go and get to it, 424 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: and it was designed to keep people in autaments. Take 425 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: a listen to news Nation now. According to the FBI 426 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: to journalists, we're doing an investigation the dark web. When 427 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: they came across a post, then they tipped off one 428 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: of the victims and law enforcement.

Once you get on the dark web, 432 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: it is the wild West and completely unregulated because as 433 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: the dark web is primarily used for criminal activity, and 434 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: without tips from the public, post on the dark web 435 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: are hard for law enforcement to trace. The dark web 436 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: is kind of like an open air bizarre where all 437 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: the bad guys gravitate get together and they sell, they 438 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: buy information, and also they'll sell anything. They'll sell services, 439 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: they'll sell drugs, and it's a closed community. So the 440 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: only way you can get in there is if you 441 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: know someone who will vouch for you.

But you know, his ultimate goal with 452 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: everything with his wife was to get her to come 453 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: back to him, even offering bonuses if she would sleep 454 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: with him at least three times the first you know, 455 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: couple of weeks that she returned to their to their marriage. 456 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: So he was detailed and the details are are disturbing, 457 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: to put it mildly, well, you're right about that.

Remember he had to take a Hippocratic oath 500 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: at some point in tom where he said that he 501 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: would do no harm, Nancy, and this is the ultimate harm. 502 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: And go back to what had earlier been stated. He 503 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: had told these individuals she needed to be taught how 504 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: to use this. What does that mean. Well, he's creating 505 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: an addiction in her. Heroin is highly, highly addictive, So 506 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: once she's blasted with that first dose, she's going to 507 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: get really sick. But then this craving sets in where 508 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: she has to have this fed constantly. He's a physician, Nancy, 509 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: he understands that. And this is another thing. Heroin is 510 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: not something that you're just going to be bought down 511 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: to the pharmacy and you know, and fill a script 512 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: for it. This is something that synthesized off of morphine, 513 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: which is naturally occurring. Heroin is something that is at 514 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: a street level. It's a very very dangerous drug. So 515 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: that means that whoever these kidnappers that he was looking 516 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: for would have gotten this dirty drug off of the street. 517 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: He's a physician, keep that in mind, and he wants 518 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: to have this injected into this poor woman's body. I 519 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: lost show, Scott, but I'm going to follow up with 520 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: James Daniels, director of investigations at blocktrace dot com, expert 521 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: on the dark web and cryptocurrency. You know, hold it, Ashley. 522 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: First to you talking about what you may do one day, 523 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: Oh I'm going to kill you. That's not a crime. 524 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: But when you follow it up with an overt act. 525 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: I use that phraseology because that is what is required 526 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: by the law and overt act that makes it a 527 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: real conspiracy, even if you're playing fails. And in this 528 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:15,320 Speaker 1: case we've gotten transferring fifty six thousand dollars absolutely, Nancy, 529 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: And so a couple of things. Number one, the overt 530 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: act that's transferring the money. Number two, that shows intent, right, 531 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: there's intent because you're committing that act to show that 532 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: you are attempting to do it. And remember, even if 533 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: a crime such as murder doesn't occur, but you plan it, 534 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: there's still attempted murder, right, there's still attempted crimes. Those 535 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: are crimes even if it doesn't come to fruition. So 536 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: how does that happen? James Daniels with blocktrace dot com, 537 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: how do you transfer nearly sixty thousand dollars on the 538 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: dark web? Yeah, it's it's it's fairly easy to do. 539 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 1: One of the clips that you had had talked about, 540 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, untraceable wallets and you know, one of the 541 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: things that you know law enforcement and now in the 542 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: private sector with blocktrace dot com, we are getting very 543 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: good at doing that tracing. So criminals think that bitcoins anonymous, 544 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: they think the other knocked and you know, we've got 545 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: the skill set to go through and trace that stuff, 546 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: which is how and why the FBI was able to 547 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: find who this was. Can you trace bitcoin as easily 548 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: as you can trace money transfer three banks? Yes, yes 549 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: you can't. And it's you know, it's more difficult to 550 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: trace cash. You know, back when I was working drug cases, 551 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: and people would conduct transactions in cash. It was much 552 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: more difficult to trace that than it is to trace cryptocurrency. Well, 553 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: cryptocurrency does have a footprint on the Internet, and so 554 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 1: we use that along with other techniques to follow where 555 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 1: it came from and where it went to. Why as 556 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 1: if there is motivation to Healey Guther joining us KHQTV, 557 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: why was he doing all of this? He wanted her back, Nancy. 558 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:03,359 Speaker 1: It seems crazy, but his whole goal here was to 559 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: get her to return to him to make their marriage work. 560 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: And he made it clear he had no intentions of 561 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: giving up the girlfriend, but that's what he wanted. He 562 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: wanted his wife home, he wanted their family back in 563 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: pack and even made comments about his wife and girlfriend 564 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: going shopping together at Costco. So he had this fantasy 565 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:30,959 Speaker 1: world that she obviously wanted no pardon, but he didn't 566 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: want her dead. He didn't want her murdered. He just 567 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: wanted her back to doctor Sherry Schwartz. I have not 568 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: seen it, but I have seen snippets of it. Have 569 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: you ever heard of the reality show called Sister Wives? 570 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: I have. I've never seen it either, but I know 571 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: the concept yet where all these women are married to 572 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: the same guy, and they're all okay with that. Yes, 573 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: So this was doctor ilgs fantasy that the wife and 574 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: the girlfriend would go shopping at Costco, and I guess 575 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: Be's own private harem. What is he thinking. Well, I 576 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 1: think in the context of Sister Wise, there's a religious 577 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: component to that, and this is what they believe religiously. 578 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: And again I'm not saying that it's okay. It would 579 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 1: not be okay with me, but I'm not a member 580 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 1: of that particular religious practice. In this case, it doesn't 581 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,959 Speaker 1: seem that this is uh, you know, something that God 582 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: told him to do, but rather a remarkable lack of 583 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: empathy for these women. He can't put himself in their 584 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: shoes to sort out that that's not going to be 585 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: okay with them that they are having. You know, in 586 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 1: the wife's case, she's married to him. That implies that 587 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: nobody's going outside of the relationship for sex or love 588 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,800 Speaker 1: or or anything, you know, romantic love or anything like that. So, 589 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: you know, the behavior here is very sinister. You know 590 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: what Joe Scott was saying before out shooting her up 591 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: with heroin. In my mind, as a forensic psychologist, I'm 592 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: reviewing so many of these cases. I immediately thought he's 593 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: planning ahead to get evidence on her in case there's 594 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,879 Speaker 1: a custody battle, and so he can say to her, 595 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: you can't leave me. You won't get your son, you 596 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: won't get a penny from me. You have to stay 597 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: with me and do what I want because I have 598 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 1: this evidence that you used drugs. You know, it's interesting 599 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: Hilly Guther joining US investigative reporter k QTV that he 600 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,839 Speaker 1: says the point of it all was to get her 601 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: to return to him. I don't know that I totally 602 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: agree with that, even though that's what he is saying. 603 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 1: Take a listen to our cut ten k HQ. The 604 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: directions Ronald Illig allegedly provided to a dark web hitman 605 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: to kidnap his estranged wife is about the only thing 606 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: that is clear and this stranger than fiction story. As 607 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,280 Speaker 1: outline and court dox Il tried to hire a professional 608 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: criminal to kidnap his wife. In part, the target destroyed 609 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 1: two families and walked away as if she did nothing. 610 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: I want the target kidnapped for seven days. While being held, 611 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 1: she will be given injections of heroin at least two 612 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:14,280 Speaker 1: times per day. Exaccused of also encouraging the kidnapper to quote, 613 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: he use all means necessary to convince his wife to 614 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: drop the divorce and come back to him. Doc state 615 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: he wanted the kidnapping to occur while he and his 616 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: girlfriend were in Mexico, sols to put the marriage back 617 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: together again. And he's plotting all this with his off 618 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: on a vacation to Mexico with his girlfriend to jump in. 619 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: I have to this is Ashley. All I have to 620 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: say is I don't believe he wanted her back either. 621 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: He wanted to control the circumstances. He didn't like the 622 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: way it was going. What's the best way to control it? 623 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: Do this? And I absolutely don't think he wanted her back. 624 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: He just had the control, Yeah, because he wanted her 625 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 1: kidnapped and tortured. I don't care what he's saying now. 626 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: I don't have to prove the motive in court. The 627 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: state is not required to prove that the reality is 628 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: that there is a trail a mile y between burner phones, 629 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: his dark Web activity, and statements he has made to 630 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: the girlfriend and to police. Haley Gut, where does the 631 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: case stand right now? You know he's still he's still 632 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: in jail. Um. Here, here we have this doctor, the 633 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:25,359 Speaker 1: successful doctor who had a remarkable career, and he has 634 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: not been able to bail out of jail. He is 635 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 1: awaiting trial right It was supposed to be coming up 636 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: this month, but it has been pushed to October. Of course, 637 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: we anticipate it will likely get pushed back again, but 638 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: he remains a Spokane County jail inmates and the investigation 639 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 1: is just is continuing. I do know that his um 640 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 1: and one of the court hearings, his first wife was 641 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: there to kind of vouch for him and even was 642 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: willing to provide, you know, a place for him to 643 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 1: go while this whole thing continues to play out in 644 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: the and the court system. But it's my understanding he 645 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: was believed to be too much of a fight. There 646 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 1: is no way this guy should get out on bond 647 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:14,360 Speaker 1: flight risk, plus a risk to the second wife and girl, 648 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: the twitnesses against him. We wait as justice unfolds. A 649 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: neonatal doctor taken down by the FBI and his foiled 650 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: plot to kidnap and torture his wife. Nancy Grace Crimes 651 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: story signing off, Goodbye friend,
