1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: This show discusses cold case murders and the people who

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: spend their lives fighting for justice. We hope to raise

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: public awareness and invite witnesses to come forward with evidence

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: that could potentially be investigated by law enforcement. We also

5
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: remind listeners that everyone has pursued innocent until proven guilty

6
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 1: in a court of law, and that an arrest is

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: not a conviction. Nothing in the podcast is intended to

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 1: state or imply that anyone who has not been convicted

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: of a crime is guilty of any wrongdoing. It was

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: around six am on Thursday, October third, twenty twenty four,

11
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: when a black Mercedes SUV pulled up to a street

12
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: near Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital and parked. The driver left

13
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: the car was still running. About an hour later, the

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: Miami Police Department Dispatch received a nine to one.

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: To one call.

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: The caller said he was walking near the hospital when

17
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: he saw a car. He noticed it was still on,

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: which he thought was odd. He looked inside and saw

19
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: a couple of things, a man half clothed and a

20
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: lot of blood, and that's when he called nine one

21
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: one police. An emergency personnel quickly arrived at the intersection

22
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: of northwest seventeenth Street and tenth Avenue, just a block

23
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: or so away from the emergency room. They approached the Mercedes.

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 3: Oh there, he is serious.

25
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 2: There's somebody in the back here.

26
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 4: Yo.

27
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:28,919
Speaker 3: Yo.

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: The man was in the trunk of the suv. He

29
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: was severely injured. The man was bleeding from a gunshot

30
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: wound to his head. He was barely alive. EMTs got

31
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: to work immediately, and the officer began to examine the

32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: inside of the suv.

33
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: Hey, it looks like somebody drove him there.

34
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 3: Hey, okay, either shot.

35
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: Again as he breathed, But as the officer took in

36
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: the situation, something about it felt off.

37
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 5: Okay, there may be more to this, so dispatch, Dispatch

38
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 5: forty one cent over to the scene.

39
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 2: Hey, sorry, yeah, let me We don't know.

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like this guy was located in the

41
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: back of an suv. This didn't look like a car accident.

42
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: This looked intentional.

43
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 3: Don't reach inside here yet. Okay, this so looks like

44
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 3: it might be a crime scene.

45
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: Now from School of Humans and iHeart Podcasts, this is

46
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: Cold Case Files Miami. I'm your host Enrique Santos. As

47
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: Miami police worked to figure out what had happened in

48
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: that suv. An ambulance rushed the victim to the hospital.

49
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: He had been identified as Josse Manuel Garbajal Saldibar, but

50
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: that's not how most people knew him. Most people knew

51
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: him as El Tiger. El Tiger was a Cuban immigrant

52
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: and a popular Cuban reggaeton artist. Cuban reggaeton, which is

53
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: also known as kubatong, is huge in Miami, and El Tiger

54
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: was a major part of the scene, and so news

55
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: of his shootings spread quickly, as did the rumors that

56
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: he had over one hundred thousand dollars of gold on him,

57
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: that he had committed suicide, that he had been tortured.

58
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: Fans of El Tiger soon gathered outside the hospital hoping

59
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: for updates and good news, and the local news was

60
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: there as well. Tonight, there is an outpouring of support

61
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: and prayers for the singer's recovery.

62
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 5: Fans coming and going gathering outside Jackson Memorial Hospital waiting

63
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 5: for any update. I'm thirty seven year old Cuban regaton

64
00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 5: artist Josseman Carva, known as El Tiger.

65
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 4: I'd never imagined that this case would garner so much attention,

66
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 4: not only from the media but from the local folks

67
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 4: here in South Florida, something that kind of took me

68
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: by surprise.

69
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: Many Morales is the chief of the Miami Police Department.

70
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 4: I have been with this great agency for thirty one years,

71
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 4: the last three and a half as as chief.

72
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: Chief Morales wasn't one of the initial responders when at

73
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: Tiger was found, but he was very aware of the situation.

74
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,239
Speaker 4: Listen, when you see a serious assault or a serious battery,

75
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 4: a shooting victim that's looking critical but it's still fighting

76
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 4: and still you know, has a chance to survive, we

77
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 4: still handle it as if it was a homicide investigation.

78
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 4: At the point, all you have is a nine one

79
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 4: one call, you have the evidence on the scene, and

80
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 4: that's where the detectives kind of start piecing all this together.

81
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 4: So they begin to work the case. They begin to

82
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 4: talk to witnesses, they begin to pull forensic evidence.

83
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: Detectives soon concluded that the shooting didn't happen in the

84
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: car Tiger had been found in. Instead, someone had driven

85
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: it Tiger as he lay bleeding in the back of

86
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: the suv and left him there outside the hospital. Investigators

87
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 1: were able to trace at Tiger's steps the morning of

88
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: October third back to nearby Hialiah just north of Miami

89
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: International Airport.

90
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 4: It all started with being able to find out that

91
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 4: the incident took place in Hialeah. That was the breaking point,

92
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 4: right when we realized where the incident took place, and

93
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 4: then we were able to kind of follow it from there.

94
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 4: I think that's what broke the case wide open.

95
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: And a few days after the shooting, on October seventh,

96
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: Chief Morales gave a press conference. He had an update

97
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: to share as well as a request.

98
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 4: What we really wanted to do is get the public's

99
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,679
Speaker 4: help in trying to locate an individual that is wanted

100
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 4: for questionings.

101
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: Chief Morales named this individual Damian Valdez Gayoso.

102
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: He is wanted in connection to this incident.

103
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 4: At this time, I'm not going to share any additional

104
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 4: details to protect the sanctity of the investigation, but we

105
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 4: definitely know that he has some information that we need.

106
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: In when speaking publicly, Morales had to walk a fine

107
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: line naming a person of interest without raising too much suspicion.

108
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 4: We're very careful knowing how passionate Tiger's fans are. Very

109
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 4: careful in the wording that I use when I asked

110
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 4: for the public's help, because I didn't want this to

111
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 4: become a case of vigilantialism. I didn't want anybody going

112
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 4: out there and taking justice into their own hands.

113
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: As Chief Morales made this appeal, El Tiger was still

114
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: in the hospital, desperately fighting for his life. But a

115
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: shot to the head is a hard thing to survive,

116
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: and on Thursday, October tenth, his team made a devastating

117
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: announcement on Instagram. El Tiger had died. He was thirty

118
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 1: seven years old.

119
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,799
Speaker 4: Ultimately, he succumbed to his injuries and he passed away.

120
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: As police continued to look for Valleska Yoso, they were

121
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: able to piece together more of what happened in those

122
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: early morning hours of October third because they had gathered

123
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: a remarkable piece of evidence, video footage. The footage showed

124
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: a Tiger approaching the front door of a house in Hialeah.

125
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: He then knocked on the door and waited. Chief Morales

126
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: said there was an argument. Suddenly, there was a flash

127
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: of light, a shot, and tiger fell. Minutes later, a

128
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: man emerged from the house. He started dragging a tiger's

129
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: body across the yard.

130
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 4: He then, you know, was able to lift him up,

131
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 4: put him in the trunk of the car that he

132
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 4: was operating. From what we believe, he tried to take

133
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 4: him to the hospital. That's why the vehicle was abandoned

134
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 4: so close to Jacksonvimoyal Hospital. It appears he got cold

135
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 4: feet and then he just abandoned the vehicle and ultimately,

136
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 4: you know, we believe that he's the one that made

137
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 4: the nine one one call to have the officers locate

138
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 4: and rend their aid to a tiger.

139
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: The whole incident had been captured on a neighbor's security camera.

140
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: It is Homoso's clothes or even better than an eyewitness, right,

141
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 4: because there's something that is unbiased. You just play it

142
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 4: and you're looking at what's happening. Right, Sometimes you might

143
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 4: not have the right angle, and the angle does impact

144
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: a little bit of everything. But when you're looking at

145
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 4: the video, it just gives you an opportunity to better

146
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 4: piece the sequence of events of a crime scene. So

147
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 4: bureaugraphic evidence is fantastic when it comes to putting together

148
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 4: a specially a homicide or a violent crime case together.

149
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: Though the police hadn't yet publicly named the man who

150
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: had fired the gun at a tiger. They believed it

151
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: was Daman Valdeska Yoso.

152
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 4: The case has not gone to trial, so I cannot

153
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 4: get into a lot of the specifics because I don't

154
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 4: want to, you know, jeopardize the opportunity that the prosecution,

155
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: the Miami dated State Attorney's Office, is going to have

156
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 4: to success fully take this case in front of a

157
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 4: jury of his peers. But I heard that they were

158
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 4: friends at some point. They might have been even business associates.

159
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 3: It ultimately looks like.

160
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: They might have had a relationship that just turned sour

161
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 4: and led to this horrific incident.

162
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: The video evidence did seem damning. Still, MIAMIPD has to

163
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: be prepared for every argument that could be made to

164
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 1: poke holes in the case.

165
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 4: So you start looking at that point and then you

166
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: start eliminating any possible excuse.

167
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 3: Hey, that wasn't mean that I made the phone call. Okay,

168
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 3: we kind of eliminated that. No, the incident didn't take

169
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 3: place on my house. We eliminated that.

170
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 4: No, I wasn't the one who ultimately drove him and

171
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 4: put them in the truck.

172
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 3: Well, we eliminate that, right, So you.

173
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 4: Take that adversarial view and make sure that you eliminate

174
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 4: any possible alibi, any possible excuse.

175
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: But there was one important element missing to make an rest.

176
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 3: We needed to find Damien.

177
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 4: Once we kind of discovered that that Damien was a

178
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 4: person of interest, of building the evidence until we got

179
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 4: enough probable cause, and now you know, we put the

180
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 4: case together.

181
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: In late October, Daman Baldska Yoso was found and detained

182
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: in New York City.

183
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 4: With the help of the NYPD, we're able to take

184
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 4: him into custody and ultimately bring him back to South

185
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 4: Florida to face justice in Miami.

186
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 1: He was charged with first degree murder.

187
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 4: Case is sitting with the Miami Dade State Attorney's Office

188
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 4: waiting to go to trial.

189
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 3: Is a serious case.

190
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 4: The state attorney takes his due time putting the case together,

191
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 4: bringing all the evidence, uh making sure there's no wrinkles

192
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 4: in the case, and ultimately taking in front of a jerky.

193
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: As we've stated before, an arrest is an important step,

194
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: but it's not a conviction. For his part, dam Young

195
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: Baldska Yoso has pleaded not guilty. He claimed he acted

196
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: in self defense. The trial hearing is currently set for

197
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: later this fall. El Tiger's case is different from other

198
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: cases we've talked about this season. Unarrest came quickly, and

199
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: so far it seems like if there's a trial, it

200
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: will also come relatively quickly. The police were fortunate that

201
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: the security camera footage of the shooting existed, Otherwise who knows.

202
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: El Tiger's case could have gone cold to The case

203
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: is also different because I met El Tiger when I

204
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: interviewed him in May twenty twenty three on my morning

205
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: radio show. I liked how connected he was to his

206
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: roots in Cuba and how ambitious he was to make

207
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: a life for himself here in Miami. And I liked

208
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: his music. He was always very outspoken and passionate. Though

209
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know it Tiger well personally, I do know

210
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: someone who did. His former manager, Marisel Renosa, met A

211
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: Tiger in twenty nineteen, and the two connected immediately. Marcenne

212
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: saw an ambitious, outspoken and talented artist who'd been able

213
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: to make a name for himself outside the structure of

214
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: a more formalized music industry. He wanted to work with

215
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: him immediately. The next years saw Eltiger rise to success

216
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: with hit songs, collaborations with other popular musicians, and concerts

217
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: all over the world, but he also went through some

218
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: dark times. In twenty twenty, El Tiger's parents passed away

219
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: in Cuba, just days apart from one another. The Tiger

220
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: was heartbroken. He wasn't able to return to Cuba at

221
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: a time to attend their funerals. People who knew him

222
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: said this deeply affected him. It may have led to

223
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: him turning more to drugs and alcohol to cope with

224
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: the pain. In twenty twenty four, when he died, Liltiger

225
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: was arguably at the peak of his fame, and it's

226
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 1: hard not to wonder what else he might have accomplished

227
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: if he had more time. I wanted to talk to

228
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: Marcel because I wanted to hear more about the man

229
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,839
Speaker 1: behind him, Tiger, and the impact his death had had,

230
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 1: both on Marcel and on a Tiger's many many fans.

231
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: I would love to hear more about you and your

232
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: interactions with him and Tiger. As Oose the artist, you

233
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: got to spend a lot more time with him, obviously

234
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: than I didn't know him, a lot better than the

235
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: majority of us. Could you tell us what your favorite

236
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: things were about him?

237
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: He was a top of Paerson that you didn't know him.

238
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 2: He will sit down with you for like an hour

239
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: and he's fulling in love with this guy. It's like,

240
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: this is crazy. You know. He will give you a

241
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 2: hug that will be falling and he will be like,

242
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: don't even worry about it. There's a solution for everything.

243
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 2: And that piece of mind, the assurance that he always gave, uh,

244
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 2: you know, like the kind of move babey. You know,

245
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 2: in a way I'm not saying this he will was perfect.

246
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 2: Obviously he did our you know, and all things that

247
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 2: I'm considered that right. But I did tell him about it,

248
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,719
Speaker 2: you know, I told you, look, I disagree with this.

249
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 2: I was very open, uh, And we will fight about it.

250
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: You know, we'll fight about it. But at the end

251
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 2: of the day, he just told me, you know, it

252
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: will be okay. He'll push us to make more money,

253
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: like look at the bigger picture. So he was actively

254
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: wanted to better on myself, believe.

255
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 3: It or not.

256
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: You know, you speak about that. You tried to help

257
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: him out and to and to do better. There's a

258
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: lot of comments about a possible drug issue or dependency

259
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: that and Tiger unfortunately had how much did he struggle

260
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: with that.

261
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I think a lot of people underestimate depression

262
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: and drugs. We see it on the on the news

263
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: saying all the drugs, but into you don't see I

264
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: lost one next to you going through that obviously, the drugs,

265
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 2: losing his mom, losing his dad, it must be, you know,

266
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 2: must be horrible. I can't even think about I'm not

267
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 2: even ready for my parents. You know, I'm a mom

268
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 2: and dad, and I spent every time I came with them,

269
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: So I can only be understand his frustration be in

270
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: the States and not be able to go back to

271
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: Cuba and then your parents passing away, not to me,

272
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 2: just you know, uh. And I think it's you know,

273
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 2: he struggled for that. The drugs kind of MAGNI five

274
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: pretty much. He was trying to escape. Miami is a

275
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 2: very addicting city. It's like a free for all double thing,

276
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 2: you know. And I think a lot of people said

277
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 2: that Miami does belong to the States and just a

278
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: different vibe, and I think kind of target took advantage

279
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 2: of that, going to every place, knowing everybody going to

280
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: a club, you don't have to pay for anything, that

281
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: be a p experience. You know, it's a good adrenaline

282
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 2: and I'm not gonna lie. So I think he enjoyed that,

283
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 2: you know or not.

284
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: This is something that was very new to him, especially

285
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: to any artist that's fleeing a communist country that's controlled,

286
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: that doesn't have a lot of these things that you're describing,

287
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you come to a

288
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: capitalist country, arrive in the United States, and you have

289
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: everything and anything practically that you want at your fingertips.

290
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: It's very easy. Especially in a very high sexy city

291
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: like Miami. They get sucked into the nightclub scene and

292
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: to the girls, and to the drugs, into the alcohol.

293
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: You know, end up consuming you if you don't know

294
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: how to consume it exactly. So did he talk at

295
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: all with you about what his plans for Cuba? How

296
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: much he missed Cuba? Oh yeah, one hundred percent. That

297
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: was when in September we're doing a tour over there.

298
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: I think we're in Cuba for like two weeks.

299
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 2: In Cuba. Man, he's like God over there. He told me,

300
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 2: you have to go to Cuba with me. Oh no, no,

301
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 2: you have to go to Cuba with me. It's a

302
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 2: different experience. It was another Cuba's not gonna lie, but

303
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: we're in the pool and then the tolos and he

304
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 2: told me like this is life well with here making

305
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 2: plans you know, for the future. But you can see

306
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: the piece in him because and the love that he

307
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 2: had for the for the country. But again he will

308
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 2: focus more on the people, his kids. All the kids

309
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: were in that time there, and every time will go there,

310
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 2: he will take here of the kids. That's one thing

311
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: he never missed. He booked them a separate room for

312
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 2: the whole two weeks pretty much with the kids, so

313
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 2: he won't to spend that much time as he came

314
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 2: with the kids. Basically when the time that he was there.

315
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: What were his plans for the future. I'm just curious.

316
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: What did he share with you where he wanted to

317
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 1: take his music, where he saw his music growing too.

318
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely international. I think many worked for him because

319
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: everybody wants to be obviously famous to a point until

320
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 2: you get there. And I actually actually one time that question,

321
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: like I'm.

322
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 1: Like, do you do you do you like music? Are

323
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: you doing this for the money?

324
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 2: Are you doing this?

325
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 3: No? No?

326
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 2: I actually you know I enjoy what I do obviously

327
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 2: what he likes the money, but he enjoyed what he does,

328
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 2: and I think that's what made him maybe progress a

329
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 2: little faster, because you got to find that right combination

330
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 2: with doing what you love and at the same time,

331
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 2: you know, kind of pays. And I think that's the

332
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 2: combination that's kind of hard to find nowadays. But he

333
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 2: definitely had those plans, you know, to go international. Unfortunately

334
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 2: obviously argued it happened, but definitely the plass was Therefore,

335
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: you know, we record more for international.

336
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: We need to take a break. But when we come back,

337
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: we'll hear from Marcel about the day of it, Tiger's death.

338
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm back here with Marcel Renosa, Tiger's former manager. Marcel

339
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: Where where were you? Where were you when you found

340
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: out he'd been shot? How did you find out he'd

341
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: been shot the night before?

342
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 2: I think around midnight. I was kind of already enough

343
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 2: feeling egos. Usually he will live for like a day,

344
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 2: so nobody bothers him. But de time, he took two days.

345
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 2: So I went told, you know, my wife, I'm like, hey,

346
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,680
Speaker 2: I'm kind of worried, like he'll do and then he

347
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 2: on my car. So I was at even sleeping because

348
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 2: so the guy was driving a rental under my name

349
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 2: money at night, so that obviously I couldn't rest too much.

350
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 2: So at just sending a text at midnight eleven thirty.

351
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: I think I even published that text and I told him, am, I,

352
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 2: you know, hopefully every is good. Just want to tell

353
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: you I love you, and he replied back to me,

354
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: I love you with all my heart. And then around

355
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 2: nineteen am they called me with some rumors. I was

356
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: kind of panicking. I'm like, I didn't believe it. He

357
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 2: took his life. So then I ushed to the hospital.

358
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 2: I was kind of on first one. Actually I got there,

359
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: they didn't give you any information, so we said, we

360
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 2: know he's here, you know. So it was a whole

361
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 2: back and forth and then I saw like six attractives

362
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 2: and then that's the whole thing went down. You know,

363
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 2: we're gonna interrogate you. So imagine I was dealing with

364
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 2: not knowing his stage what happened. And then at the

365
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 2: same time the police being interrogated at the police station

366
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,959
Speaker 2: at the City of Milly for like five six hours.

367
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, it was a very long day, very long

368
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 2: day in long weeks. You know, we didn't slept every day.

369
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: We went to be in the hospital morning night, two

370
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: or three am in the morning, you know, just hoping

371
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: for good news.

372
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: Basically, you mentioned some of the rumors that were first

373
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: spread on social media, and that's the first time I

374
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: heard about the news. There were rumors circulating on social

375
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: media that he committed suicide. We now know that that's

376
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: not the case. But I'm curious when you mentioned that

377
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: he would disappear for a couple of days. Where would

378
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: he disappear to He just needed time on his own

379
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 1: or yeah, I.

380
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 2: Needed time, and I respect to that, and I told

381
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 2: everybody his circle, just don't bother the guy. Just think

382
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 2: about it. His phone doesn't stop, Instagram doesn't stop. He's

383
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 2: just like messages up, the messages, so something. You got

384
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 2: to give him a break, and I kind of knew

385
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 2: how to deal with that for that time, not to

386
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 2: bother him. When it was a normal for him to

387
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: be going for like two days, but like once a week,

388
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 2: maybe once every two weeks, he will, you know, he

389
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: would just go off the radar.

390
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: What stressed him, what pressured him besides the his depressed state.

391
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: I think we could say, I would dare say after

392
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: his parents passing so suddenly and back to back.

393
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 2: I think the parents. I mean, if I'll get on

394
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 2: the shoes, I think that will be the stuff that

395
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: most got me sad. And when we talked one time,

396
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: like we have a lot of conversation about that, about

397
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 2: you know, his mom and you know, like obviously that

398
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 2: you know. But he will even start crying, and I

399
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 2: feel bad when I see crying. I think I'll start

400
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 2: crying too. It's just, you know, I just I just

401
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: threw this guy's pain. It's it's unbelievable, the money paying

402
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 2: that he went through, especially with U, with his family,

403
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 2: you know, losing everybody.

404
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: In one shot, you mentioned about fans and support, a

405
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: lot of fans camped out around the hospital, Jackson Memorial

406
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: Hospital where his where he was left and then where

407
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 1: he spent so many days in critical condition trying to

408
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: to recover. What was it like to see that support?

409
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 2: It was it was sad to have my sunglasses even nighttime.

410
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: It was. It's like this is in saying, I don't

411
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: think Holsey knew what he left behind into today. I

412
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 2: don't think it did. And hopefully seeing wherever he is,

413
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 2: but it's it's he's very sad when people singing songs,

414
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 2: everybody got in together. It was very impactful to say that.

415
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: My Baldeska also is accused of killing Cuban reggaeton artist

416
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: El Tigers, whose real name is ose Manuel. He is

417
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors have decided not to seek the

418
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: death penalty, but could pursue a life sentence if he's convicted.

419
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: I want to talk about the investigation, Marcelle, of what

420
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 1: you can share with us. Do you have any thoughts

421
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: on how the police responded and this investigation that's led

422
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: to the Myng Baldeska Also's arrest.

423
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,719
Speaker 2: I think I think the police uh did the right

424
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 2: thing the guy quick. Honestly, I think though they will

425
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 2: ever gonna get him. When the guy disappear, I'm like,

426
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: oh man, I think the wars that could happen is

427
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: not get the guy because you might and now we're

428
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 2: not even gonna have a conclusion on this. You know,

429
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 2: it's gonna be like a never end in pain. So

430
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 2: the fact that they got him so quick, it's it's

431
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: it's great. I think they did a great job. A

432
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 2: lot of people criticize the city of Miami or I'm

433
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 2: the complete opposite attend the degrade. They kept every team

434
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 2: as much hitting as they can. Due to the leagues,

435
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 2: everybody's leaking misinformation all the time. So but I think

436
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 2: the police is the right thing, you know, the the guy.

437
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 2: They want to get the evidence. They want to actual

438
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 2: di am and they did. They want to get it right.

439
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 2: And that's what they state of training told me. You

440
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 2: know you cannot these cases. You can have messed it up.

441
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 2: You know, you cannot go based on emotion, go basing

442
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 2: your impulse. No, let's let's ask for their perenalty, you

443
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 2: know all this crazy stuff. You know, you want to

444
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 2: have a concrete case so the guy at least can

445
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: spend the resulte safe in prison.

446
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: How did it feel to know an arrest was made?

447
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: What went through your mind?

448
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 2: So when he got caught, Damien, we felt that relief.

449
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 2: I felt a relief. You know, at least we can

450
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 2: kind of turn that page when he gets convicted. Now now,

451
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: and it's gonna take us some time for him to

452
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 2: have his stay in course, but at least the attention

453
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 2: can deviate too other things, you know, to like his kids,

454
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: the children that he left to you. You know what's

455
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 2: gonna happen to them, was gonna happen to his music,

456
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. I think it's a relief, a

457
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: big relief, and to focus on what matters, which is

458
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: his music. I've been spoken about it. You know we're

459
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 2: gonna remember him for his music, don't. I don't want

460
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 2: this guy to get an attention like he took somebody's life,

461
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 2: and I don't think that should be the like the

462
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 2: main focus.

463
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,959
Speaker 1: But the legacy, I think is what matter. His music,

464
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: his wisdom, anything else. You think it's importantly you like

465
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: to addmight I said, No, just his music. You know,

466
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: hopefully people don't forget about him. I mean that's the

467
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: main thing. You know, Tiger was.

468
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 2: You know, he was special, the way he improvised his music.

469
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: The guy didn't have just one hit. He was used

470
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 2: music after music. People will follow him and we can

471
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:48,719
Speaker 2: learn from him.

472
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: Thank you what I said, Thank you for your time

473
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,439
Speaker 1: and for sharing your memories of a Tiger with us,

474
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: and we know he is dearly missed and his memory

475
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: won't be forgotten. Thank you. In my interview with Marseille,

476
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: I was struck by something he said about the huge

477
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: relief he felt when a suspect in a Tiger's death

478
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: was arrested. This is something I've heard from other victims too,

479
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: how much an arrest means. Miami Police Chief Manni Morales

480
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: also talked about this.

481
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 4: I think not only this case, any case that involves

482
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 4: the known lawful take you of someone's life, and that's

483
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 4: the most egregious violation that we have in our society

484
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 4: right where our society rules and laws and life is

485
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 4: the most precious thing we have to have a family member,

486
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 4: a friend, or even a celebrity that is beloved by

487
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 4: his fan base.

488
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 3: It's the ultimate betrayal.

489
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 4: Man, if you had somebody that you know, somebody that

490
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 4: you love, get killed, you want that person that did

491
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 4: it held accountable.

492
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: Not being able to hold perpetrators accountable, this weighs on.

493
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 3: Him or an incredibly safe city.

494
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 4: But you know, I've always told my investigators that are

495
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 4: very important for us to make sure that we hold

496
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 4: those that will harmor community accountable for their actions.

497
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 3: And we might clear every case this year, we.

498
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 4: Might have list of clear the vast majority last year

499
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,479
Speaker 4: and the year before that, but it hasn't always been

500
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 4: the case. And I can understand why folks would feel

501
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 4: that the police department hasn't done everything it can to

502
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 4: bring those responsible for that atrocious act to justice. But

503
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 4: I can assure you that every case that we get,

504
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 4: especially a homicide, we take.

505
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 3: That deeply service.

506
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: With technology, he hopes this may be more achievable.

507
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 4: We have a grant by the federal government to take

508
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 4: back a look with current technology that wasn't available back

509
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 4: in the seventies or eighties, to see we can bring

510
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 4: those folks to justice. And I can tell you I

511
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 4: think a lot of folks are going to be going

512
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 4: to jail pretty soon. I'm being held accountable for the

513
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 4: crimes that they thought they had gotten away back in

514
00:26:58,800 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 4: earlier decades.

515
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 1: It's this sense of purpose that drives Chief Moraleies and

516
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: his department every single day.

517
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 4: You cannot, as an officer, change what happened before you

518
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 4: got there. However, I can make a difference in the victims' lives.

519
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 4: We have a huge responsibility on our shoulders, and that's

520
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 4: what I love about being a cop.

521
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: As this season of Cold Case Files Miami wraps up,

522
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: the man arrested for Brian Raida's murder is still waiting

523
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: for trial. Laurence Webb's family is waiting for news of

524
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: her killer's appeal. The Sap family is still waiting for

525
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 1: any sort of information about who killed their beloved Joyce,

526
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: and Regina Talibert is still hoping someone will step up,

527
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: someone who saw something denied her seventeen year old daughter,

528
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,959
Speaker 1: Nursia was shot and killed. These families have never stopped

529
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: hoping for answers, no matter how long it takes. Every

530
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: investigator we spoke with is also carrying the weight of

531
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,479
Speaker 1: these crimes. My wish, everyone's wish is that there are

532
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: no homicides to solve. But until that happens, I hope

533
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: this podcast is also a reminder that closure isn't a luxury,

534
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: it's a human need, and justice delayed doesn't have to

535
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: mean justice denied. In my city, Miami, I know we're

536
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 1: not perfect, but I've seen firsthand that there are prosecutors, chiefs, officers,

537
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 1: and community activists out here doing the work. I've seen

538
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 1: them care, I've seen them break down, and I've seen

539
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: them stand back up and keep fighting. It's in that

540
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: persistence that change is made. Because this podcast has also

541
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: shown me that healing doesn't only come from answers. Sometimes

542
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: it also comes from being heard from being seen or

543
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 1: from knowing your story hasn't been forgotten. Every one of

544
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: you listening has the power to help by sharing, by remembering,

545
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: by speaking up when you've seen something. Don't underestimate what

546
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: attention and awareness can do. I know. I'm grateful to

547
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: every single person who trusted us with their story, and

548
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: to every listener who made space in their heart and

549
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: mind to hear them. Thank you, and thank you for
