4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: says he knows nothing of what Coleman's saying and proposes

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 1: they all talk about it when roommate number two gets home,

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: but instead of waiting, Dalton Coleman forces his way into

7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Pierce's bedroom and the two exchange blows.

8
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: Roommate one.

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: Pierce reaches for a gun, shoots Coleman fifteen times, then

10
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: wraps the body in an air mattress and shoves it

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: in a closet.

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: Nancy. Pierce called the missing roommate twice during the alleged confrontation,

13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 3: wants to ask advice in a second time to report

Speaker 3: one one, leading to the discovery of Coleman's body. Pierce

16
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 3: had wrapped Coleman's head in a plastic bag and tied

17
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 3: the air mattress around his body with a lamp cord.

18
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: Coleman was shot over a dozen times.

19
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,639
Speaker 1: Pierce now charged with murder II and tampering with evidence.

20
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: A forty two year old man walks into a Leeds,

21
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: Alabama bass pro shop, strips naked, and does a cannonball

22
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: into the huge freshwater aquarium and the middle of the store.

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: Cops are called, but the man will not come out,

24
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: swimming and splashing around butt naked and showering in the waterfall.

00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: The man eventually climbs over the edge of the aquarium

26
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: and falls ten feet to the floor while he's facing

28
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: and justice news after this. Now with the latest crime

Speaker 1: and justice breaking nees Crime onlines John Lemley.

30
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: In a new court filing, the defense team for the

31
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: gunman who shot and killed ten black people at a Buffalo,

32
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: New York grocery store argued that their client should not

33
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: be executed because, at the age of eighteen, his brain

34
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: was still maturing and more susceptible to outside influences. We

35
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,559
Speaker 2: turned to Sydney Sumner of Crime Online for more.

36
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 3: Since the two thousand and five Supreme Court decision declaring

37
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: that the death penalty for those under the age of

38
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 3: eighteen was unconstitutional, Peyton Gendron's attorneys claimed the science of

39
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 3: brain development has advanced. They reference more recent studies suggesting

40
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: that brain development might last until the early twenties. After

41
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 3: entering a guilty plead to state charges of murder and

42
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 3: hate motivated terrorism for the May twenty twenty two shooting

43
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: at a store he said he picked because it was

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: situated in a neighborhood with a high concentration of black people. Gendron,

45
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: now twenty years old, is currently serving eleven life sentences

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 3: without the possibility of parole. If Gendron has found guilty

47
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: in a different federal hate crimes case scheduled for trial

48
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 3: next year, the government has threatened to apply the death penalty.

49
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: In a separate motion, Gendron's lawyers argued that the federal

50
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 3: indictment should be dismissed, raising concerns about the validity of

51
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 3: the hate crime statute in whether Congress was within its

52
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 3: authority to enact the law. According to investigators, Gendron, a

53
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: white man, described his assault plans in an online journal

54
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 3: that included meticulous details of his attack plans, a thorough

55
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: narrative of his March scouting trip to Buffalo, in hand

56
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 3: drawn maps of the targeted business. He used a camera

57
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: mounted on a military helmet to webcast the assault. Using

58
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 3: an air style rifle, he opened fire, first in the

59
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 3: parking area of the supermarket and then inside, killing ten

60
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 3: customers and injuring three staff members. Attorneys for Gendrin contend

61
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 3: that he and others like him should be granted the

62
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 3: same immunity from the death penalty as a Supreme Court

63
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 3: granted to those under the age of eighteen in the

64
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: two thousand and five case.

65
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: Barbara Burns, a spokesperson for the US Attorney's Office in Buffalo,

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: has so far issued no comment on the case. Now

67
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 2: to Illinois, where in the deadly shooting of an off

68
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: duty Chicago police officer, a twenty two year old man

69
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: has entered a plea of not guilty once again crime

70
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: online Sidney Sumner.

71
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: In connection with the April twenty first killing of Officer

72
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 3: Louise Wesca. Xavier L. Tate Junior was charged with first

73
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 3: degree murder, aggravated vehicular hijacking, and possession of a stolen firearm.

74
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: After finishing his shift at work, thirty year old Wesca

75
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: was on the southwest side of the city and heading

76
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: home when he was shot multiple times. He was later

77
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: pronounced dead at an area hospital, according to police Superintendent

78
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 3: Larry Snelling, but he had something covering it, as is

79
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 3: common for officers who are not on duty. In part,

80
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 3: Teet's identity was established by video footage gathered from over

81
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 3: ninety locations following Wesca's murder. Tete was apprehended on me first.

82
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: Tat's pre trial release was later denied by a judge.

83
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,240

86
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 1: connecting flight to California. Instead of booking a new flight,

87
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: he takes a lift to the Acano Lodge and spends

88
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,240

Speaker 1: hotel on foot, and that's the last time he's seen.

00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:59,440
