You know, the recent history is Bonta 20 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: has taken over that Sheila Kill investigation away from Vieneueva. 21 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: But that's not what this press conference was about, although 22 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: I guess that was the interest of many of the reporters, 23 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: including Steve Gregory, who was there. Yeah. This, Uh, I 24 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: guess I've become you know, mister Bonte has always been 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: very nice to me, but I've for some reason, keep 26 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: pissing them off. And this is the second time I've 27 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: made them a little upset. So, yeah, you bring the 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: reality of this. What's that? Do you have audio of this? Yes? Oh, 29 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: absolutably hearing. Yeah, so the setup is jan John's right. 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: We were there today because the United States Postal Inspector 31 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: was announcing a major bust in a mail fraud ring 32 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: where they you know, busted, I don't know, they made 33 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: fifty something arrests and to the tune of five million 34 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: dollars in stolen checks over the last four years. That's 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: why we were there. But what caught my intention was 36 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: that this is the first time the Attorney General has 37 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: been shoulder to shoulder with the sheriff since he announced 38 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: he was taking over that investigation from Kuell, and I 39 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: wanted to know that, and so I was kind of 40 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: curious about it. And then late last night I got 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: a document dump on my one of my private emails, 42 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: and in this document dump shows a list of campaign 43 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: contributions that originate from everyone from Banta's wife Mia, to 44 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: the attorney for Patty Ghiggins and to endorsements to Sheila 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: coul and Holly Mitchell, and how they're all sort of buddies. 46 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: And I was given pictures of Holly Mitchell and Mia Bonta, 47 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Rob Banta's wife, and they're all very simpotico, and how 48 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: Mia Banta has been endorsed by Sydney Commlagger, the Senator. 49 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: But Sidney Commlagger is the wife of Patti Ghiggins attorney. 50 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: So you've got all this really weird, sort of complicated. 51 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: It's kind of one of those web of sstuous. It 52 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: is very that's the word, exactly incestuous. It's very weird. 53 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: They're all friends, married to each other and donating to 54 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: each other's camp, all behind the scenes, absolutely glad ending. 55 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: And you know, in fact com Lagger, who is the 56 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: Senator and again the wife of Patty Higgins attorney, was 57 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: publicly endorsed by Rob and Mia Bonta, Holly Mitchell and 58 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: Sheila Coull. So they were all in cahoots on this. 59 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Shouldn't Bonta recuse himself from the investigation? Well, John, bless 60 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: your heart, that's the question to ask. I could be 61 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: like you, you would never get through the front door. 62 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: But no, I'll tell you what it was curious about 63 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: because I reached out to the Sheriff's department and they said, hey, 64 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: how many times have you asked the Attorney General to 65 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: intervene on an investigation? Because remember on this show we 66 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: talked about the document. The sheriff sent a letter to 67 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: Bonta saying, hey, please investigate the leak that led to 68 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: the hip that Sheila killed God about that search warrant, 69 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: remember that via Max Huntsman. So that was the impetus 70 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: for the investigation that the Sheriff's department requested from the 71 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: AG's office. Well, then the AG sent to the letter 72 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: back saying, well, yeah, we're going to look into that. 73 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: And also, by the way, we're taking that investigation over 74 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: on the Sheila Kule corruption in the Patty Higgins corruption 75 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: thing regarding the piece over violence contracts, all of that. 76 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: So what I wanted to know was why did Banta 77 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: have interest in this case and none of the eight 78 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: cases prior. Why all of a sudden this case, the 79 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: other eight cases being well over the over the years, 80 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: the Sheriff's department asked the AG's office to look into 81 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: the shooting death of Andre Es Guardado. Remember the guy 82 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: asked eight times, yeah, fort to take over the investigation, 83 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: to help investigate as an outside an independent agency investigating 84 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: his own people in some cases, and this is the 85 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: first time bought to said yes, yes, and it happens 86 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: to be the investigation into his buddy Hila killed right. 87 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: In fact, one of the times that that he was 88 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: asked to intervene on a case. Not only did Bonta respond, 89 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: but they said we don't have the resources to investigate, 90 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: and now they do. So in this cut here, m 91 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: I start bringing up these questions. I asked, I said, 92 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: why now? And then in cut B, Dylan cut B. 93 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: This is Rob Bonta responding to my question, why now? 94 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: After eight cases, why this one? It was? It was 95 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: an investigation that was requested by sheriff being a way 96 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: about his team, they reached out to us to be 97 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: involved in two aspects. One specifically, the allegations of a 98 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: tip or are being tipped off about a search warrant 99 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: being served, and then specifically also about the underlying public corruption. 100 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: We believe that they're inextricably intertwined, that you can't disentangle them, 101 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: and so at the request of the Sheriff's office, we 102 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: decided to take on both cases, and we have and 103 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: that's made public. That's not true. He only the Sheriff's 104 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: department asked them to take on only the one part 105 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,119 Speaker 1: of the case, and that was the case of the tip. 106 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: The second part of the case was the one where 107 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: the sheriff accused himself, and that's the investigation into Quell. 108 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: But Bonta decided to take that case over. He says, 109 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: they're intertwined. You're right in the public interest, right, Yeah, 110 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: So he's lying there, Well it's it's not the truth. 111 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. So here and cut b 112 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: or excuse me, and cut A. I start to ask 113 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: him questions about these intertwined people behind the scenes and 114 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: the thousands of dollars in campaign donations, back and forth 115 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: and back and forth. And I did it. I employed 116 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: the trick that I learned many years ago, where I 117 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: asked I purposely kind of screw things up and just 118 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: see where it takes us. And then typically it ends 119 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: in them telling me everything I need to know. And 120 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: this is cut a no, wait a second. You said 121 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: that there were donations given to the attorney. That is 122 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: not true. That there was endorsements given to the attorney, 123 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: that is not true. So let's be clear. Let's be specific. 124 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: Senator Comlager was a colleague of mine. I served with her. 125 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: She's a colleague right now of my assembly member Mia Banta, 126 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: my wife. So there may have been legislation we worked 127 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: on together. We know each other, we serve together. We 128 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: serve the people of California together. On the political side, 129 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: there may have been endorsements. I don't think that's a conflict. Ha. 130 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: So you got him to admit all the conflicts he has, 131 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: so he took the bait. Steve Gregory went to a 132 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: press countference today that was supposed to be about a 133 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: male fraud case the Attorney General Rob Bonta and Ella 134 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: County Sheriff Alex Bueneueva, but it turned into more questioning 135 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: about the Sheila kul investigation and Rob Bonta taking over 136 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: that investigation, and then the mysterious web of indorsements and 137 00:07:54,200 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: donations involving Bonta and Banta's wife and Sheilla Acules friend 138 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: Patty Ghiggins, and yeah, I mean I got on there's 139 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: attorneys and yeah there's Banta's wife along with Ghiggins attorney. Yeah. Yeah, 140 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: So I'm showing pictures to John right now that were 141 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: sent to me. But I got documents, all kinds of 142 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: documents here. You know who sent them to you? I 143 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: have no idea. It comes from an anonymous It's one 144 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: of those burner email accounts. Yeah, so I get it 145 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: from that, and then then, you know, the thing is, 146 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: then I have to spend it. Screws me up. I 147 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: had my whole day planned out and then this stuff happens. 148 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: Then I go to spend the morning verifying blah blah blah. 149 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: Listen to me complaining good stuff. I'm getting them grumpier 150 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: than you. Um So, now, when we left, I was 151 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 1: I was talking about the fact that you know, all this, 152 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: as you say, incestuous behavior on the part of these 153 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: elected officials. And then we're talking about Sydney Commlagger and 154 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: Sidney Commlagger is the wife of Austin Dove. Austin Dove 155 00:08:54,080 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: is Patty Higgins's attorney um uh in. You know there's 156 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: this connection now where there's people donating to each other. 157 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: And you heard Attorney General Bond to sort of justify 158 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: by saying, yeah, we're you know, I've helped before, but 159 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: this's not a conflict of interest. So here and cut C. 160 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: You know, I asked the question about public trust because 161 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: in his speech about this mail fraud press conference that 162 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: we were actually there for the reason we were there, 163 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: he talks about the public's trust in having to trust 164 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: law enforcement. So here and cut C. I asked him 165 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: about the public trust. We thought, based on the public 166 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: interest and the important public trust issues related here, that 167 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: we should get involved. And again it was at the 168 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: request of the sheriff's office and we've accepted. And again 169 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: that's not true. Only one part of that is true. 170 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: The sheriff requested only one of the two cases being 171 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: investigated by the Attorney General. So then here and cut D. 172 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: You hear the question and the answer, because it was 173 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 1: characterized that the Attorney General ripped the case. I mean 174 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: the time is described it as sort of a AG 175 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: swoops in hostile, hostile take over the case. And so 176 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: here and cut D. I asked the question, so it 177 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: was characterized the draw office grabbed the case the Shrif's office, 178 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: we could have any problems with the vis routing the 179 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: case away from you. I can only talk about what 180 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: we do. We had a request to take the case. 181 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: We took it, We have it. We exercised our authority 182 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: under the law. It was a request, an expression to 183 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: us asking us to do it. We received that request 184 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: and decided to do it. And what other whatever others 185 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: want to do, they can do. I can't help what 186 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: they do. I can only control one. I do. Sense 187 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: kind of prissy, doesn't he I can only drop, but 188 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: I do. And he keeps saying at a request of 189 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: the Sheriff's department, he's lumping these two things in and 190 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: they're not connected that way. And that's the thing he 191 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: keeps falling back, all right, there's a two separate cases, 192 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: repeat the lie over and over again, and that people 193 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: lose track of the truth. And finally Leo Stalworth over 194 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: at ABC seven, good guy, And you know, he only 195 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: asks the sheriff because the Sheriff's just kind of standing 196 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: over there by himself. And he finally asked the sheriff, hey, 197 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: sriff would you like to come up and respond to 198 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: everything that's being said. So the sheriff comes up, and 199 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: you know, and he's really professional about it. He says, 200 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: you know, the Attorney General is doing what he's got 201 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: to do, and this end the other. But then I 202 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: asked the question, well, wait a minute. You just heard 203 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: him say, you know that basically this case was Sheila 204 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: Quelle takes priority over the other eight requests that you've made. 205 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: So basically the sheriff responded by saying, no, I don't 206 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: agree with that. I do not agree with the assessment 207 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: that that was a priority case. And then I asked him, 208 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: I said, finally, I said, well, do you think you're 209 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: going to get a fair shot with the Attorney general? 210 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: And he says, I hope and pray that we do. 211 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: And he says, I think, you know, we're just going 212 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: to let the process basically take its course. So it 213 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: was one of those things where right when that was done, 214 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: the ag just be lined for the door, I mean, 215 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: just just bolted to the door. Everyone else kind of 216 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: hung out for a little Q and a stuff. But 217 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: at the end of that, at the end the Federal 218 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: Public Affairs officer, you could everybody else that was there 219 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: for the press conference. The reason we were there. They 220 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: were like mortified because they didn't see any of this coming. 221 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: And this public affairs persons from Washington d C. She 222 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: had no idea what she was getting into. They wanted 223 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: to celebrate their mail from the Right investigation. And I 224 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: actually went up to her afterwards and said, I apologize 225 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: if we you know, if we hijacked your press conference. 226 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: But I said, you just put oil and water together 227 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: at the same lectern. And I said, and she goes, 228 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: someone did tell me something about that. I said, well, 229 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: they didn't brief you very well. You should have known 230 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: this was coming. And I didn't know if Monte was 231 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: going to be briefed on it or not, because this 232 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: is the first time they appeared together at the same 233 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: at the same location, so it was important. So if 234 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: you look back at this again, when I talk about 235 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: why the Sheriff's department hadn't been getting responses from the 236 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: Attorney General's office, I was reaching out to all of 237 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: my sources also in the state, on the state level, 238 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: and I was told by a source that knows what's 239 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: going on, you know, kind of like with knowledge of 240 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: the situation, that this is not a priority case for 241 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: the Attorney General's office, and you're going to see, you know, 242 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: with the election just around the corner, I doubt that 243 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: you're going to see any action on this at all, 244 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 1: on the Shield of Kuel situation, and if for some reason, 245 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: Sheriff Viennueva is not re elected, you're going to see 246 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: this in every other request probably fade away. So Quel 247 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: is going to be protected by her political buddies. I 248 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: can only tell you what's being told to me by 249 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: people inside, and they're they're telling me now that that 250 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: she's very well insulated. Again, I'm looking at documents here 251 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: because just to remind people, you know, she suspected of 252 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: helping to steer eight hundred thousand dollars worth of city 253 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: contracts to her best friend in the whole world, Patty Higgins, 254 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: for a sex harassment sex abuse hotline that really was 255 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 1: used very much. No, and you know, and then part 256 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: of the paperwork I got here too was the Sheila 257 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 1: Kule's donation of fifteen hundred dollars to the Bob Luna campaign. 258 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: You know, so they're already making their investments, right, you know, 259 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: so um, yeah, you know, you look at this Sydney 260 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: comblogger for Congress or yeah, that's the one. Yeah, when 261 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: she was running for congress. We look at that, look 262 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: at the pictures of everyone that's on the website for 263 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: Sydney Colm blogger back then. It's uh, it's Karen Karen Bass, 264 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: Adam Schiff, Sheila Kule, Holly Mitchell, Yeah, Alex Padilla, all 265 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: the horrible people that are destroying La County. So um, 266 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: it's it's like the mafia, isn't it. Well, all I 267 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: can tell you is that, you know, Attorney General Bonta, 268 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: he says that his office is gonna there's no conflict 269 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: of interest. There's a lot of conflict of interest, and 270 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: you know, and the thing is is that, well, if 271 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: the FEDS were to come in and do their own investigation, 272 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: what would happen then? I don't know. Yeah, well they 273 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: do that because Bonta took it, they're gone, you know, 274 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I think the Sheriff's Department 275 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: can request from any agency just like anybody else, but 276 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: the FEDS. It's probably not in the Fed's best interest 277 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: to take this case because they're probably gonna look at 278 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: that it's just a backyard squabble at best. You know, 279 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: they're not gonna they don't want to get involved in 280 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: local politics. Really gonna have to Ridley Thomas. So yeah, 281 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: they're they've got their hands full with that one already. 282 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: And let me tell you, you know, as a result 283 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: of that one, you know, there are other other things 284 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: are going to come from that. So yeah, we're waiting 285 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: for that, all right, Steve, Take everybody, Dan, all right, Steve, 286 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: Great weekend guys. The Alsagundo Times, along with the UC 287 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: Berkeley's Institute of Governmental Studies, they've been doing a lot 288 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: of poles lately. Anyway. This is on the ban of 289 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: the sale of new gasoline powered cars and trucks by 290 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: twenty thirty five in the state of California, and as usual, 291 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: it has the same idiot divide from the respondents. The 292 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: respondents are allegedly voters. What that means, I don't know. 293 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: Fifty five percent of archestraed voters favor Newsom's mandate the 294 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: carb mandate, thirty nine percent to pose it. But when 295 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: you look further down in the poll, no wonder. The 296 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: headline is it may be a tough thing to achieve. 297 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: Most people have no plans to buy an electric vehicle anytimes. 298 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: It's fine for somebody else exactly right. I'm going to 299 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: keep my gas powered car. But yeah, a mandate for 300 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: everybody else is a really good idea. I tell you. 301 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: The progressives are just impossibly phony. Well, this is the 302 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: usual feel good thing. I know, we should be doing 303 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: something for climate change. That's a good idea, O me. No, No, 304 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: May twenty percent say they're likely to go all electric 305 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: the next time they shop for a new car. A Trump. 306 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: It's probably not even that, because I think the sales 307 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: rate this year was five percent, so it's usually in 308 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: the single digits. Yeah, I don't think so. By the way, 309 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: California leads the country, though, Yeah, I know the rest 310 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: of the country is like one day not buying these No, 311 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: because they all the reasons that we know. And what 312 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: this really is a test of is just how ignorant 313 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: much of the public. Is a real question which a 314 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: rag like the La Times would never put in their 315 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: polling system. Certainly Berkeleywood is why don't you tell them 316 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: we don't have an electrical grid to sustain this, that 317 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: we have hardly any charging stations for you to stop 318 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: and recharge. That they really don't exist in any meaningful numbers. Now, 319 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: let's see how you feel. Are you gonna Are you 320 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: gonna buy a car which you can't afford? Most people 321 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: can't afford electric cars. There are few charging stations, and 322 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: if there were charging stations and everybody plugged it at 323 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: the same time, the whole state would go dark. And 324 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: we're like a million miles and trillions of dollars away 325 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: from an electrical grid that would be able to sustain 326 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: thirty million electrical cars. Then let's see what your support is. 327 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: Because what they think they're supporting here basically is a 328 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: fantasy world. Yeah, well, it's usual. These things come from 329 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: the elites, and they get carried on by the elites, 330 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: and the Times writes their articles for the elites. But 331 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: then they hit the real world every now and then 332 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: with the poll like this, because they talked to people 333 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: who had really low income levels and they found no chance. 334 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: Am I buying it a fit car? It starts with 335 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: the cost, and then it continues with what you just said, 336 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: limited range and not enough stations, and they just did 337 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: too much range anxiety. It's the power of propaganda because 338 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: you know, as you know, there's a significant number of 339 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: Republicans who think that there was actual election fraud in 340 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: twenty twenty to the point where it costs Trump the 341 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: election that he should have won Biden should have lost. 342 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: And because that story has been repeated so many times 343 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: by Trump among other people, there's a signat percentage that 344 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: believe it. Well saying here, there's a significant percentage of 345 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: people who have heard over and over again that if 346 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: we switch to electric cars here in California, it's somehow 347 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 1: going to have a magical effect on the worldwide atmosphere, 348 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: which is completely false. It's total nonsense. But they hear 349 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: it and they believe it, and then they want to 350 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: do the right thing. And you see how the propaganda 351 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: feedback loop works. Then the times, after saturating everyone's brains 352 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: with this phony news about how electric cars are going 353 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: to solve global warming, then you ask them a poll, Oh, 354 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: would you be interested in solving global warming by an 355 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: electric car? Oh? I heard about this, I heard about 356 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: global warming. Now we're all going to die? And yes, 357 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: absolutely I would buy an electric car. Yes, yes, I 358 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: want to do the right thing. I want to be 359 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: a good citizen. They've been primed, a brain has been 360 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: preloaded with nonsense. So it's a trick. It's like a 361 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: magician's trick. You know, you give, you give your target. 362 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: Let's see, you're a magician. You do hypnosis. What you 363 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: do is prime a person's brain and get them very 364 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: receptive to certain kinds of ideas and thoughts so that 365 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: when you hypnotize them then they'll bark like a dog 366 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: or cluck like a chicken or whatever. The trick is. 367 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: It's about priming the brain and then readying the brain 368 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: for the response you want. And that's what you have here, 369 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: the magic trick. Yeah. The Times has its usual chart 370 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: along ideological lines. Well, the strongly liberal definitely support the 371 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 1: mandate and plan to buy an electric vehicle, But as 372 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: you move into the moderate and conservative end of this, 373 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: there's definite opposition. Fewer than one in ten people who 374 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: do travem self conservatives that they would buy an event, 375 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: but four times as many liberals said that they will. 376 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: They will, No, they won't. And of course it's also 377 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: divided by income. Yeah, what are all the poor middle 378 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: class people going to do? Where are they getting the 379 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: seventy thousand? Where's that coming from? Yeah, the thing they're 380 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 1: claiming in this story, they talk to a woman from 381 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: the automotive industry. Is that they're going to be introducing 382 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: a lot more electric models into the state in the 383 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: next few years. More than a hundred new EV models 384 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: will be introduced over the next few years, and a 385 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: lot of them will be more affordable. That's what she says, 386 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 1: more affordable. What does that mean? They got a long 387 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: way to go to make them affordable, especially when the 388 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 1: recession coming. Well, they're claiming the story the average EV 389 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: is sixty thousand dollars. That is expensive for most people 390 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: in the state. Yeah, So whether or not that's going 391 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: to come down to like thirty thousand, I don't know. 392 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: And where are they going to charge it? On trips? 393 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: Those slow chargers they get you nine miles in an hour. 394 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: There's a lot that has to be done. Yeah, and 395 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: it's not going to be done anytime soon. Remember, they've 396 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: had fourteen years going on fifteen years building high speed 397 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: rail and we don't have even six inches of high 398 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: speed rail. So where where's the millions of chargers going 399 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: to be? Where? When are they going to be installed? 400 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: Like this automotive market analyst at Edmonds that they talked to, 401 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: Jessica Caldwell. I like her quote. You know, it's hard 402 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: to envision what the future looks like from twenty twenty two, 403 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: basically saying I have no idea. Yeah, because it's only 404 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: thirteen years away. The man date, who knows what's gonna 405 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: Because anybody honest looks at this and says, well, this 406 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: will never happen anytime soon. And it's like the driverless 407 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: cars that we told you about last hour. That industry 408 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: burned one hundred billion dollars, and they have cars that 409 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: can't make a left turn and can't run right on 410 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: a cloudy day. And that's what the head of Toyota said. 411 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: Remember we quoted him earlier this week. He told Fox News, 412 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: or told some reporter that everybody thought that we were 413 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: going to have automotive automated cars by now we don't, okay, 414 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: how that slowed down? How much money do you think 415 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:19,719 Speaker 1: the executives at all these driverless car companies made, as 416 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: they got one hundred billion dollars in seed money from 417 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: venture capitalists, how much did they keep for themselves, you know, 418 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: as executive vice president in charge of innovation. So they 419 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: fed the hype, because the more they fed the hype, 420 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: the more of these venture capitalists clambered over each other 421 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: with cash to burn, so they made out. Really, it 422 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: is cool to hype a technology because everybody wants to 423 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: believe in the future, and everybody wants to invest in 424 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: the future. So you just make this like a whirlwind 425 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: of excitement. It's like, oh wow, it's gonna be driverless 426 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: cars everywhere. You gotta get give me your ten million, 427 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: now give me you're one hundred million right now. I 428 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: think a billion dollars of investment for nothing. Same thing 429 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: with these energy companies because there's so much government money. 430 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: Now you've got Biden willing to spend tens of billions, 431 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: hundreds of billions of dollars on green energy research, while 432 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: every scam artist in the world was going to say, 433 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: I've got a green energy solution here, I have an invention, 434 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: I have a way to mainstream this, and they're going 435 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 1: to make themselves filthy rich, just like the driverless car 436 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: crowd did. They have arrested the younger brother of the 437 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: man who was accused of killing that family in Mercede. 438 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: It was a big story this week. They spent a 439 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: lot of time on it. Yesterday, a employee of a 440 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: trucking company up in the Merced area in the San 441 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: Joaquin Valley apparently kidnapped family members. It was a husband, 442 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: a wife, an eight month old girl, and uncle and 443 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: he eventually killed them. All their bodies were found. The 444 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: eight month old was just left to die. And I 445 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: haven't heard yet whether he shot them or what. But 446 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: the name of the main suspect in the case, his brother, 447 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: now has been arrested. The lead suspect is Jesus Manuel Salgado, 448 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 1: and officials announced the arrest of Alberto Salgado, his younger brother, conspiracy, 449 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: accessory and destroying evidence. So if you might wonder how 450 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: one guy got the drop on four people, including two 451 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 1: male adults, it's probably because there was another person involved, 452 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: and it looks like that's the brother. We don't have 453 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: all the details on the brother's exact involvement. The lead 454 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: suspect previously drove a truck for the family that had 455 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: been fired. And we told you yesterday that back in 456 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: two thousand and five, he kidnapped another family, but he 457 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: didn't kill them. He just warned them, if you go 458 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: to the police, I will kill you. They did go 459 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: to the police. He went to prison for like ten years, 460 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: and I think that's the main reason he killed his family, 461 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: realizing that that could happen again. Let them live. He 462 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna And often that's what what these guys do. 463 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: They don't leave witnesses behind. They don't leave victims behind, 464 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: you know. So often, you know, burglars will kill the 465 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: people in the house. Rapists will kill the woman that 466 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: they raped. You know, if they think there's a chance 467 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: that this is going to be a living witness is 468 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 1: going to wrap them out and yeah, might as well, 469 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: might as well kill him, Yeah, you know, and they've 470 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: got the right level of California's horrible criminal justice that 471 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: this guy all because he didn't kill that family back 472 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: in two thousand and five, he got a really short 473 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: sentence and he finished out his parole. And here he is. 474 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: He gets hired again to work for another trucking company, 475 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: and he's bitter and he wants to rob them, which 476 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: is apparently what he did. It's not really clear what 477 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: he took from the family, but he led them away 478 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: in a kidnapping from the home and eventually killed him 479 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: and left the baby daughter to die. It's hard to 480 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: believe that someone would do something that you know deranged 481 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: is this except except he did you know three quarters 482 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: of that, you know, fifteen years ago, so we knew 483 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: he was capable of doing it. He just stopped short 484 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: of murdering everybody on the way out the door. But 485 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: because he got caught, that taught him a lesson. So 486 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: he repeated the same crime. And I think it would 487 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: be obvious that this time he would probably kill people. 488 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: So you never let him out. You have to think ahead, 489 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: you have to project with these with these people. And 490 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: what always amazes me in the year twenty twenty two 491 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: about these people. They don't realize how much surveillance there 492 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: is now. There was so much video surveillance.
