0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 3>She faced attempted murder, conspiracy, and weapons charges.

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:25.240
<v Speaker 2>I keep telling you all the craziest people in America

0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:26.639
<v Speaker 2>come from the Bronx and all of Florida.

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you something.

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 2>When I was younger, I asked my parents to take

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>me a lot of places, Okay, a lot of places

0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:35.160
<v Speaker 2>I needed rids to right drop me off at a

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 2>friend's house, maybe the skating ring, a football game on

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.959
<v Speaker 2>a Friday night. But never in my life have I

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:43.519
<v Speaker 2>asked my mother or father to drop me off of

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.800
<v Speaker 2>the shootout. Okay, somebody in Detroit is writing a script

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 2>for this new family crime.

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Thriller right now. Okay, a twenty year old that makes.

0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 2>Poor choices has usually been influenced by an adult that

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 2>has made poor choices.

0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, it's easy to condemn this nineteen twenty year old kid.

0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.000
<v Speaker 2>But when they say the apple do on fall too

0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 2>far from the treat is what they are talking about

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 2>it right. The fact that you are the deputy police commissioner,

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 2>an officer of the law. You are supposed to protect

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.280
<v Speaker 2>and serve the escalate crime. Instead you chose to raise

0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:13.800
<v Speaker 2>a criminal.

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:16.359
<v Speaker 2>The New York Post said the parents helped their son

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Chase plan a hit right outside of the Bronx Criminal Court.

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:23.359
<v Speaker 2>They was in a Chrysler pacifica okay, and their son,

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 2>who they said, is a member of the Slutty gang.

0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>What gang did they say?

0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 2>The slutty gang, That's what The New York Post said,

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.079
<v Speaker 2>open fire on a member of a rival street crew

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 2>called Pee la Fay, and by the grace of God,

0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 2>he missed his targets. How you a police officer but

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>haven't even taught your son how to shoot?

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad nobody got hit, But if you're going to

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 2>take your son out to get to drop on his ops,

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 2>at least make sure he has a great aim.

0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 2>You had everything else planned out, according to the New

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:50.480
<v Speaker 2>York Posts. After they drove off, they had their son

0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 2>changed clothes to avoid detection.

0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand what happened here, I really don't, Okay.

0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Lackett, of course, was fired from her job as

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Mount Vernon Deputy Police commissioner. She was making one hundred

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 2>and thirty eight thousand, two hundred and nineteen thousand dollars

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 2>a year.

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, she was the boss of the wellness unit.

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Now the whole family is facing attempted murder okay, conspiracy

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:15.200
<v Speaker 2>and reckless endangerment charges.

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Somebody has to explain to me how this happens. Okay.

0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:22.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean one of my pet peeves is hypocrisy, and

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 2>in this case the hypocrisy is heavy.

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>The people who are supposed to stop crime allegedly became

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:29.880
<v Speaker 2>the support staff for it.

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, not just the fact she was in law enforcement,

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.960
<v Speaker 1>but the fact she was a parent. I don't understand the.

0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Dynamics of marriages anymore because someone is supposed to intervene

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:41.839
<v Speaker 2>and simply say this is stupid.

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 2>James, you the husband, the head of the household. Your

0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.560
<v Speaker 2>job is to protect and provide whats you off duty. Jennifer,

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 2>you the mother and deputy police commissioner. You don't have

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:53.799
<v Speaker 2>nothing better for your son to do this summer? Okay,

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 2>he's twenty, Tell him go find a job. Sen as

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:59.720
<v Speaker 2>young Aster Trade school. What about your son? Don't you

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 2>that you would allow him to throw his life away

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>like this and ruin your life in the process.

0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay. This is the epitome of why you have to

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.920
<v Speaker 1>be your child's parents and not their ganggang. Okay.

0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>It's usually friends enabling behavior like this in the youth,

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.560
<v Speaker 2>but in this case, the parents are enabling the criminal

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 2>behavior instead of parenting. Jennifer James, you're supposed to be

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.919
<v Speaker 2>driving your son to college, you know, church a job interview.

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:28.040
<v Speaker 2>What prosecutors are saying you drove your son to commit

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 2>attempted murder? How you go from carpooling to conspiracy? Okay,

0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 2>I'll be the first to tell you. Every day I

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 2>learned something new about parenting.

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 2>You would think for as long as people have been

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.600
<v Speaker 2>doing it, we would have it all figured out by now,

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:42.360
<v Speaker 2>But we don't.

0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay. But I know one thing. I'm not perfect, but

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm not the goddamn lackers. Okay. The lackers was out

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 1>here helping their son catching somebody lack him. Okay. The

0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:54.880
<v Speaker 1>job of a parent is.

0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 2>To raise productive citizens, not to become accomplices in their crimes.

0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 2>Some families don't don't pass down wealth. Some don't pass

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 2>down wisdom, They pass down bad decisions.

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And if.

0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Nobody breaks the cycle of generational ignorance, everybody eventually ends.

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Up trapped by it. Please give the laccards the biggest

0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:21.800
