Speaker 1: to this hour.

00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 4: We're going to talk about the update on those Las

18
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 4: Vegas teenagers who ran down the bicyclist who turned out

19
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 4: to be a retired chief of police from the city

20
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 4: of bell California. He retired to Las Vegas and he

21
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 4: was killed by a couple of giggling teenagers, one behind

22
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 4: the wheel of a car. They actually took video of

23
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 4: them running this poor man down and killing him. And

24
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 4: there's an update on the story you need to hear

25
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 4: coming up the next segment. But we begin with another

26
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 4: excellent report from the at NBC four and it's about

27
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 4: the poor restaurant business. And the problem sort of with

28
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 4: the restaurant business when it comes to being robbed is

29
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 4: that they do probably still accept a lot of cash

30
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 4: and keep it at the restaurant that they can put

31
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 4: it in the bank. Here's Joel Grover and the team

32
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 4: at NBC four.

33
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 5: You don't hear much about this, but thieves have been

34
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 5: targeting restaurants all across the city, putting employees and sometimes

35
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 5: you the customers in danger. Restaurant owners tell me the

36
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 5: city is doing little or nothing to stop them. At

37
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 5: three twenty three on a Saturday morning, two cars roll

38
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 5: into a restaurant parking lot and outcome a group of

39
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 5: masked men with crowbars in hand. They try breaking down

40
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 5: the door of Jar restaurant on Beverly Boulevard.

41
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 3: It takes only a minute and they bust in.

42
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 5: They run through the restaurant and find the safe and

43
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 5: try to break it open.

44
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 3: This is disgusting, Suzanne Tract.

45
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 5: Jar owner is one of America's most accomplished and well

46
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 5: known chefs.

47
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 3: They just come in, they smash open your cabinet. They

48
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 3: don't care.

49
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 6: They have no regard for anything anything that you work for.

50
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 7: I work hard.

51
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 5: Lately, thieves are smashing their way into restaurants across the

52
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 5: LA area, like Home State in Sherman Oaks, which has

53
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 5: had seven burglaries in seven months, like this one where

54
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 5: a thief used a hammer to break open the safe

55
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 5: at Marmalade Cafe in Calabasas. Thieves shattered a glass door

56
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 5: last April then drag the safe right out of the restaurant.

57
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 5: They tried to do the same thing at Marmalade's Sherman

58
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 5: Oaks branch three weeks later.

59
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 3: All the wires yet, but there's no video of it.

60
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: They got all these wires, of you.

61
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 5: Because the crooks first disabled the sixteen security cameras before

62
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 5: trying to saw into the safe.

63
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 3: They actually tried to slice the safe open.

64
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 5: Three of the seven branches of Marmalade Cafe have been

65
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 5: burglarized this year. I think this has been a deterioration

66
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 5: in the feeling of safety in our city. The ITEAM

67
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 5: crunched the crime data and found that burglaries at restaurants

68
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 5: are way up one hundred and three percent from twenty

69
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 5: nineteen to twenty twenty three, like that break in a

70
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 5: jar last month where the thieves pulled the safe out

71
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 5: of the wall and carried it away with two thousand

72
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 5: dollars inside. That was all in a night when at

73
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 5: least two other nearby restaurants told me they were also burglarized.

74
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 3: It's scary. This needs to stop right away.

75
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 5: Most of the crooks are targeting restaurants in the middle

76
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 5: of the night. But that wasn't the case last year.

77
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 5: At the legendary Casavega in Sherman Oaks, opened in nineteen

78
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 5: fifty six by Raphael Vega, whose daughter Christy now runs.

79
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 8: It, the city is looking the other way and pretending

80
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 8: it's not happening, she says.

81
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 5: Cosavega has been hit by thieves ten times in the

82
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 5: last three years. Several times when customers were inside eating.

83
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 5: Thieves were breaking into your customer's cars during the day at.

84
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 8: Seven pm, with ballet Parker's running after them.

85
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 5: Christy now pays for this armed guard during business hours

86
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 5: and says she spent half a million dollars to beef

87
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 5: up security, like a high fence around her patio and

88
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 5: steel gates securing her.

89
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 3: Office by by the stakes pack back at Jarn Beverly Boulevard.

90
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 5: The owner now arms her employees with pepper spray in

91
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 5: case they spot someone suspicious while leaving work.

92
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 6: I've taken this out several times and they see it

93
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 6: and they run.

94
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 5: What is LAPD doing about the rise in restaurant burglaries?

95
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 5: LAPD Commander Giselle Espinoza speaking to the I Team, she

96
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 5: says police are now sharing information about these break ins

97
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 5: to all their divisions across the city, but no dedicated

98
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 5: task force has been set up to tackle the huge

99
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 5: rise in restaurant burglaries. One hundred and three percent increase.

100
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 5: Does that increase in numbers concern you?

101
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: Absolutely? She believes more.

102
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 5: Cops are needed and prosecutions need to be when these

103
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 5: crooks are caught.

104
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 9: When they go through the judicial process and they are

105
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 9: prosecuted and sentenced. I believe that people should serve their

106
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 9: minimum sentencing.

107
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 3: But for now, restaurants are putting up steel gates.

108
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: At the turn for anyone entering the restaurant.

109
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 3: Space and taking matters into their own hands.

110
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 7: It's bad.

111
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 6: It's so bad it makes me not want to be

112
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 6: in the city.

113
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: It's from NBC four his I Team, and Joel Grover

114
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: is the reporter.

115
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: Boy.

116
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 2: We're screwed. We've got a do nothing there. Karen Bass

117
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: is completely inept, overmatched, lazy, not interested. How could this

118
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: be all that happens on October first? With the new

119
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 2: no bail stuff? How does this interest this? There's gonna

120
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: be no bail for these criminals.

121
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 4: We spent a lot of time on the car thieves,

122
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 4: but what about people that smash into restaurants and try

123
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 4: to steal safe? I guess so again it's not considered violent.

124
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: So Michael Moore, the do nothing police chief, when he

125
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: gets the memo on his desk that restaurant break ins

126
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 2: are up one hundred percent, what does he do?

127
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 4: Take an app and usually they assigned a task force.

128
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 4: They didn't even do that. No, no, we didn't even

129
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 4: get the task force.

130
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: So so Karen Bass does nothing, doesn't care the business

131
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: owners have to spend on a godly amount of money,

132
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: but putting up, putting up iron gates. And if if

133
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: you saw the video and it's online at NBC four

134
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: l A. I think that's the name of the it

135
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: is website, you have to see these these these goons

136
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 2: come in and they are all the stupid hoodies on right,

137
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: you can't tell who it is. I'm glad we have

138
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: all these video cameras, you can't tell at all who

139
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 2: these people are. And they have this equipment that sparks

140
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: as they try to right, and they got these these

141
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 2: big weapons and they're banging away and banging away, smashing

142
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 2: until they get something to lose, something, something opens up

143
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 2: and then uh, and then of course we got Gascone

144
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: who has completely destroyed the county because none of these

145
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 2: people get prosecuted and they know they're not going to

146
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 2: get protect so just keep doing this every day.

147
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 4: A bachelor heard the police officer in the story there.

148
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 4: She said that the problem is they go through the

149
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 4: judicial process and they don't even serve the minimum right.

150
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: We're not seeing it. So so everybody's got to live

151
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,239
Speaker 1: like catch and release.

152
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: So everybody's got to live like this where you've got

153
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: a restaurant and you know of a group of thugs

154
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 2: whearing their stupid hoodies are gonna raid the place.

155
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 4: And now a lot of restaurants are not accepting cash

156
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 4: because you know, if you break into a restaurant and

157
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 4: you find a few thousand dollars, you're gonna come back

158
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 4: because you know that they keep cash in there. So

159
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 4: these restaurants are just gonna have to change their method

160
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 4: of doing business, and you're gonna be out of luck.

161
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: I mean that doesn't encompass a lot of.

162
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 4: People, but a lot of people still use cash to

163
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 4: buy food at restaurants.

164
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: Who wants to live like this? Why is Karen Bass

165
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: creating this situation where we have to live like this?

166
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: We can't even go out to dinner? Why does Michael

167
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: Moore not care?

168
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 4: Cars being broken into a loveda with valets are chasing

169
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: after them. You're gonna turn to San Francisco or that's right?

170
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: And all people are supposed to fight this, right, you know,

171
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: assistant managers, valets, waiters, what they're all supposed to track

172
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: these these bastards down? Damn and guess go Gascone doesn't care?

173
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 2: Does he laugh at night when he watches it? Like

174
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 2: when I assume these people watch the news. Maybe they

175
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 2: don't watch the news because they don't care. But when

176
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 2: Bass is on her sofa, sitting on her on our

177
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 2: big round one looking looking at the Channel four, the

178
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: investigative piece of the week, what's her reaction?

179
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: Does she care? Does she say wow, that's awful? Yeah? Yeah?

180
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: And ape they solve that problem. Same thing with Michael Moore.

181
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 2: It's like, wow, it's up one hundred percent.

182
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: I know that, right, did you hear that?

183
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: And does guess gone laugh at all this because he's

184
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 2: here for the destruction. That's his big laugh. He gets

185
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 2: to single handedly destroy the city. Yeah, and everybody's comfort.

186
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: No consequences, no punishment. We don't want to put anybody

187
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: in jail. So what if they steal stuff? Nobody's gonna

188
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: want to live here. No, I wouldn't.

189
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 4: My place got robbed like six times in this year.

190
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 4: I'd probably be folding up.

191
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 2: Yeah.

192
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: I've been to those Marmalades before we've been dead. My

193
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: wife and I've been to several of them.

194
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 2: Well, well, you're good restaurants for the ladies. Yes, it

Speaker 1: It's a lot of salads and stuff.

197
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 2: Yes, the restaurant again, of course. Yeah, No, Alma laid

198
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 2: every time we've gone to Marmalade has not been my suggestion.

199
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was thinking when you said that, like you're

200
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: kidding me.

201
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 7: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI

Speaker 1: All right, well we now know their names.

204
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 4: The teenagers that ran down the former Bell police chief

205
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 4: in Las Vegas. They killed Andreas Andy prop'st age sixty four.

206
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 4: He was out riding his bicycle. They made a video

207
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 4: of it. They were riding along and they had already

208
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 4: hit another car and they just thought this was fun.

209
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 4: Joaday riding around has stolen Hyundai a Lantra. This is

210
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 4: back on August fourteenth. So their names we now know

211
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 4: are heyesus Ayala, who was the driver who just turned eighteen,

212
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,640

213
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 4: a court appearance yesterday. We have a bit of a

214
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 4: stunning update from Las Vegas television station because the older teenager,

215
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 4: Heyesu Sayala, basically told the cops when they took him

216
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 4: to the jail, I won't.

217
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Be in here long.

218
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 4: It's just a little hit and run. Let's play the

219
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: story from Las Vegas News eight and I've learned.

220
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 9: Hey sus Ayala, the accused driver, appeared to show no

221
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 9: remorse when he was taken into custody, even referring to

222
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 9: the hit and run and telling an officer he'll get

223
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 9: a slap on the wrist since he's in the juvenile system.

224
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 9: As we've reported, he has a lengthy criminal history there,

225
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 9: but he's not in the juvenile system anymore. Jusa Heyesusayala

226
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 9: appearing in adult court for the first time Thursday, facing

227
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 9: eighteen charges, including murder.

228
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 3: Court does sign probable cause for your arrest in this case.

229
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 9: His co defendant Jimmy Keys, facing three charges, also including murder.

230
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 9: The teens are accused of killing retired police chief Andy Propst,

231
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 9: intentionally hitting him as he rode his bicycle in a

232
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 9: designated bike lank Ayala, the accused driver, Keys the accused

233
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 9: passenger who recorded this video. Metro Police say this was

234
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 9: the third hit and run during their crime spree on

235
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 9: August fourteenth. They're accused of hitting another cyclist earlier that morning,

236
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 9: a seventy two year old man who survived the eight

237
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 9: who's now investigators confirming all three hit and runs.

238
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 3: Are on video.

239
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 9: Police say the teens also stole four cars that day.

240
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 9: Ayala seventeen at the time, now eighteen, Keys sixteen years old.

241
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 9: Do you believe these teens should remain in custody and

242
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 9: what do you think is an appropriate bail amount for

243
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 9: each of them?

244
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 8: Termination of whether somebody should remain in custody is based

245
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 8: upon whether they're a flight risk or day to the community. Okay,

246
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 8: I believe they're potentially both. They have certainly proved that

247
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 8: they are dangerous.

248
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 9: Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson also explaining how his

249
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 9: office will work to prosecute both teens for murder well under.

250
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 8: Law in Nevada and most any other place. If you

251
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 8: aid and a bet, encouraged, facilitate, or help in any

252
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 8: way another person to commit a crime, you're equally guilty.

253
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 9: We've been digging for more details and just learned more

254
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 9: about the video investigators say they found on Ayala's cell phone,

255
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 9: a similar scene showing the teens laughing as the engine

256
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 9: accelerated to hit the first cyclist who survived. We've learned

257
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 9: one of them is heard saying bump him a few times.

258
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 9: The teens are expected back in court on Tuesday.

259
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 3: We'll be there.

260
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: They're homicidal maniacs. They should be put away forever.

261
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 4: This story unfolded on August fourteenth when they hit the

262
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 4: former Bell police chief, but they didn't find the video

263
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: until more recently. I guess it's circulated at school and

264
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 4: a school cop talk it to the cops. Attention, let's

265
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 4: hone in on this.

266
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: These two murderous. They should they should be executed. These two.

267
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 2: They take out their video video camera so they can

268
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: record themselves intentionally running down cyclists.

269
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 4: Right after they stole the car. Then make the right

270
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 4: even more fun like a video game. And then they're

271
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 4: gonna they're gonna send the video to their friends. Are

272
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 4: they gonna post the video?

273
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: And the teens are laughing.

274
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 2: And when they came up behind probes, one of them said,

275
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: hit his ass, and they did, and they killed them

276
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 2: and he was tossed over the hood of the vehicle

277
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 2: and then they left him to die and he died.

278
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: And here's the quote.

279
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 4: We're getting the now eighteen year old Ayala said to

280
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 4: one of his jailers, you think this juvenile bleep is

281
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 4: gonna do some bleep, I'll be out in thirty days.

282
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 4: I'll bet you it's just a bleep hit and run,

283
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 4: slap on the wrist.

284
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

285
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 4: But now they've been hit with eighteen charges, including murder

286
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 4: attempted murder. Grand Larci, you were heard that story. They

287
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 4: also had a seventy two year old bicycles who survived,

288
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 4: but that was another attempt to kill somebody.

289
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: Did he know that the guy he had died did

290
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 2: he think he was going to get a slap on

291
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: the wrist thirty days for murder?

292
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: I don't know when they arrested him, and he said

293
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 4: that if he knew the guy was dead.

294
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: Right, this is what they think. We've been going through

295
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: this like every day. They all think it doesn't matter.

296
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 4: This is the Vata, which is thought a little better

297
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 4: than California, but maybe not.

298
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: But it's in the air every you know, this is

299
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: how the criminals think, no consequence, it's right, So it

300
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: is in the air. I can kill somebody. It's like

301
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: a video game.

302
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: You slam your car, you slam your stolen car, some

303
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: older guy on a bike, wipe him out, leave him

304
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 2: for dead.

305
00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: Laugh, record it, show your friends. Hey, that's the reality.

306
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 4: You have all these dope politicians who think they're setting

307
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 4: the criminal justice system right. But you know, the killers,

308
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 4: the people committing the crimes, laugh at this.

309
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: They think it's great. What's going this way?

00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 7: AM six.

319
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: Forty and it's on the radio from one until four

320
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 2: after four o'clock. The iHeart app has the John and

321
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 2: Ken on demand podcast.

322
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: You can listen to what you missed. Well, we're fully loaded.

323
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 4: Next hour, we're gonna, of course, bring the Moistline people back,

324
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 4: and we're gonna throw a hack in a dumpster. And

325
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 4: this time it'll be a little unique because it is

326
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 4: something that John Cobelt has not heard. So John Cobelt

327
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 4: will listen to the audio of this person and decide

328
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 4: exactly when the mob comes to throw them into the dumpster.

329
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 4: Will it be ten seconds, in a minute, in two minutes?

330
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 4: In I didn't you know what. We'll talk more about

331
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: it next hour.

332
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: But this guy completely slipped by by radar and now

333
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,479
Speaker 2: he's got two major.

334
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 4: And he's in your backyard. Yes, he's in your backyard.

335
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 4: There's another clues anyway, very close right now. I'd played

336
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 4: this audio well, John was on vacation and I couldn't

337
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 4: believe it. I said, We've got to save this because

338
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 4: this person has to go in the dumpster. And I

339
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 4: said to myself, I wonder how long into it John

340
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 4: will want to just open the trap door.

341
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 2: And God, this guy is a weirdo. And you haven't

342
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: heard this audio though, no I haven't.

343
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: I is a winner.

344
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 4: This guy makes Newsome look mild. This guy is so

345
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 4: smug and arrogant. But it's all in his voice as

346
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 4: he delivered, say what you're going to hear.

347
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 2: How come the people who believe in this nonsense are

348
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 2: also smug and arrogant. It really is cult like it's

349
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 2: they almost have like a religious superiority about them. Very

350
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: strange phenomenon. All right, so you'll hear this unfold in

351
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 2: one hour we do hacking a dumpster. Now here's a

352
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: story that there's really nobody to root for. We have

353
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 2: the insurance companies who have been pulling back in the

354
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 2: home insurance market. We have the insurance Commissioner, Ricardo cal

355
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: fart Lara, and we.

356
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,479
Speaker 4: Have the homeowners that want to build and rebuild their

357
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 4: homes in the fire zones.

358
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: Who are your root for? Anybody's hand go up here?

359
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: Who are your root for? There's nobody to root for

360
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: this is this is a collision of idiots.

361
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 4: Well, so the big announcement was made yesterday that encourages

362
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 4: the insurance company to come back and provide coverage in

363
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 4: what they call the high risk fire zones in the

364
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 4: hills and the canyons of California. As you know, a

365
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 4: lot of them said, we're not writing any new policies.

366
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 4: We may honor the ones already in effect, but this

367
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 4: is costing us too much money. And they claim the

368
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 4: problem is under the state's regulations, they can't really get

369
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 4: much of rate increases through.

370
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: So that's what cal.

371
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 4: Fart Lara brokered here a deal where they will come

372
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 4: back and start to cover more of the homeowners and

373
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 4: the fire zones in exchange for getting higher.

374
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 2: Rate increases through the state regulations. Because apparently it's quite

375
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 2: a process. And of course the voters passed this years

376
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 2: ago with a proposition measure. Well, basically the insurance companies

377
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 2: had to go on strike. They had to say, fine,

378
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: if you're.

379
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 4: Not that allow you're going to play this, then we're

380
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 4: not going to bother being right. It's so like the

381
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 4: oil companies are doing too well, we're going to set

382
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 4: the refineries.

383
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: Then if that's what you're going to do.

384
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 2: The state allows PG and E to let its infrastructure

385
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 2: go into such major disrepair that you have power lines

386
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 2: falling all the time during the Santa Ana wins during

387
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: fire season and starting huge fires that cost the insurance

388
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 2: companies billions of dollars. Well, if that's what the state's

389
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: going to do, because PGE bribes you know, Newsome and

390
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 2: his wife with more money than these insurance companies do.

391
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 1: Hey, you know that's the game. We don't have to play.

392
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: We don't have to play.

393
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 2: This is a state farm all state USAA. They wanted

394
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 2: rate increases ranging from twenty eight to forty percent, because

395
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 2: you can't make money in California.

396
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 4: The losses in these fire zones they're too heavy. I mean,

397
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 4: look at what happened in the city of Paradise alone

398
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 4: as an example, completely destroyed. Imagine if you are the

399
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 4: insurer there in all those homes you had to cover

400
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 4: the costs of They're saying, look, if you want us

401
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 4: to provide this coverage, we have to have rates that

402
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 4: are commensurate with the risk. And you know under the

403
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 4: regulations you can't get it done. That's what they've been

404
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 4: complaining about So John's right, they just decided, all right,

405
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 4: then we will write new policies.

406
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 2: I just have to live with what we have. Insurance

407
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: company is not a constitutional entitlement. No company has to

408
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: be out, you know, potentially millions of dollars because you

409
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: build your house in a fire zone. That's your problem,

410
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 2: that's your responsibility.

411
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 4: The state has something they call fair California's Fair Plan,

412
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 4: So if you can't get a private insurance company to

413
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 4: give you a property insurance, you can sign.

414
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: Up for this, but apparently has very high rate coverage.

415
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: Y because the math works the same way for the

416
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: state government.

417
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're rejected by the private insurance company's chances

418
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 4: are they didn't want to take on your risk. So

419
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 4: if you go into the state pool, well they're going

420
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 4: to have to charge high rates to cover you too.

421
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 4: I can't subsidize that.

422
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 2: So the way it works, if you're in a danger zone,

423
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 2: you're gonna pay a lot more. They give an example,

424
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 2: a cabin in the woods. You might get a two

425
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: hundred percent rate increase. And before you start squawking, it's like,

426
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 2: why do you have a cabin in the woods, What

427
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 2: do you think they're gonna charge you.

428
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: Of course they're gonna charge.

429
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 7: You a lot.

430
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 4: So I looked up an older article because mentioned in

431
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 4: this also going to do time story about this new

432
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 4: deal that Ricardo Lara brokeer in between the insurance companies

433
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 4: and the state. It mentions that he has ethics problems,

434
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 4: and an article in the chronicle from last year they

435
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 4: did not endorse him to be insurance commissioner because well,

436
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 4: here it is. After promising to forego insurance industry campaign contributions,

437
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 4: Lara accepted an excess of two hundred and seventy thousand

438
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 4: dollars from fifty six different people with ties to the

439
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 4: industry around the time of the last election in twenty eighteen.

440
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: Liar Lara his office.

441
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 4: Then directly intervened at least twice to overrule the department's

442
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 4: administrative law judges to the advantage of businesses with.

443
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: Ties to campaign donors. Then we go.

444
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 4: So in twenty nineteen he earned more than one hundred

445
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 4: and seventy four grand an annual salary, but he stuck

446
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 4: taxpayers with the bill to an apartment he rented in Sacramento.

447
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so he's a cruk.

448
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 2: Basically, the guy's always looking right guy for the guys

449
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 2: and Krook. Yeah, and he's really stupid. He you know,

450
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 2: he believed that there'd be a cal fart capture technology

451
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,719
Speaker 2: that you get attached to cows and that was going

452
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 2: to stop global warming.

453
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,959
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a he's a looney too.

454
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 4: He's a state legislator who thought he was going on

455
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 4: to bigger things. And all he's gotteness this insurance commissioner job,

456
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 4: which he's now held for a couple of terms.

457
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: And he has no credibility, nobody trusts him, but hey

458
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: keep voting for him. The voting patterns in this state

459
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: are psychotic, absolutely psychotic.

460
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: It's stunning who people vote for.

461
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the.

462
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 4: Current investigation is by the Fair Political Practices Commission and

463
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 4: that's usually soft tough. But they think that he's been

464
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 4: figuring out a way to funnel insurance industry contributions into

465
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 4: his reelection campaign using third parties. That's another trick that

466
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 4: the politicians use to try to wonder.

467
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 1: The money into the campaign. Because he's he's a dishonest fool.

468
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: He is. He says he's just liar Lara, right. It

469
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: says here he doesn't seem to know. And by the way,

470
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: I don't.

471
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 4: I don't even know how much Lara knew about the

472
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 4: whole insurance industry. It's just these are just a landing

473
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 4: spot for politicians. Didn't really wanted bigger and better things

474

475
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 4: cawfart guy. I was shocked when he actually won the

476
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 4: insurance commissioner. It's like the cal fart guys the insurance commissioner.

477

490
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 4: Eastern Europe to help us throw a hack into the dumpster.

491
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 4: Because if you don't remember the hack and a dumpster.

492
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 4: Originated with the Ukrainians throwing a politician who was too

493
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 4: Russian favorable into the dumpster, and wasn't that an omen

494
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 4: for what was to come? Right now we have the

495
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 4: invasion of Ukraine by Russia.

496
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: I mean this was ten years ago I think that

497
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: this happened and we couldn't believe it.

498
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 4: We saw the video and we said, all right, that's

499
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 4: what we have to start doing, throwing hacks into a dumpster.

500
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 4: And we started with the Ukrainian mob members, but it

501
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 4: has grown for quite intronactional crowd of mob members that

502
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 4: come and help us throw a hack into the dumpster.

503
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 4: It's a brand new face one that John just mentioned

504
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 4: should have been on our radar because they're in our backyard.

505
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: So and a real weirdough too.

506
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 4: When you hear this audio, you'll agree, front of the

507
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,479
Speaker 4: line into the dumpster for this person.

508
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: So that comes up after the news at three thirty.

509
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 4: Right now, we're going to talk about apparently a growing

510
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 4: trend of lawsuits more and more, and a lot of

511
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 4: them are class action, which means, you know, lawyers get

512
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 4: a pretty good cut. They're against food companies for misleading advertising.

513
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: You know, all the years.

514
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 4: You've seen the commercials on TV and the burger looks

515
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 4: huge and everything looks delicious, and then you go to

516
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 4: the restaurant, it's like, are you kidding me? Well, there

517
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 4: are some people that are taking this to the next level,

518
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 4: and they're filing class action lawsuits against food and beverage companies.

519
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: The numbers have jumped just in the last few years.

520
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 4: In August, a federal judge in Florida refused to dismiss

521
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 4: a class action lawsuit that claims Burger King's ads overstate

522
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 4: the amount of meat in the whopper and the other sandwiches.

523
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 4: Now do the commercials do they actually gave you a

524
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 4: weight of the meeting I was talking about people looked

525
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 4: at the picture, looked at the commercial and said, well,

526
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 4: when I go there, it's this little shrinked up thing

527
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 4: that they give me on a small bun.

528
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: I don't know.

529
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 2: Unless they're saying, hey, you get a you got a

530
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 2: six ounce patty, I don't.

531
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fraud is.

532
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 2: I mean because camera angles can always be deceptive, and

533
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 2: that six ounces before being.

534
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: Cooked or after it's right, you lose the shrinkage.

535
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't. I don't I don't understand. See,

536
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 2: this looks like a law firm making stuff up. And

537
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 2: then they asked their you know, one of the law

538
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 2: partner's brother in law is to be the test case. Well,

539
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 2: I don't think any person at home can tell how

540
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 2: big the patty is and then match it to what

541
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 2: they see when they go to the burger king.

542
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: Nope, but he's done that. This This is a lawyer

543
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: cooked up this idea. But haven't you seen the tv ad?

544
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 4: And it's this big, fat, beautiful meaty burger with delicious

545
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 4: lettuce and tomato hanging out?

546
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: And then you go to the.

547
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 2: Place, You're like, what the hell? All of them? I

548
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 2: don't believe tv ads. I just don't believe them. I mean,

549
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 2: you know, at some point, what are you eight years old?

550
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 3: Oh?

551
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: A tv ad misled you?

552
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 4: Really, it's like a politician who says he's going to

553
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 4: solve all the problems. Yeah, you're probably still more traffic,

554
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 4: kalo bit traffic for it?

555
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: Are you still into the easter buddy too? I mean,

556
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: what's what's wrong with you? Now? But how many people

557
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: have run into this?

558
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 4: Although most of these lawsuits got dismissed, you get the

559
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 4: bag of chips and you're looking at it and it's like,

560

Speaker 1: Yeah, they're like baked. You're bad. You probably eat kale.

00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 6: Chips I have, but my favorite are the pop chips.

571
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,840

585
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 2: spit it out. So I said I'll let me try

586
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 2: and I bit into It's like, WHOA, that's disgusting.

587
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 6: I can't believe you even tried it.

588
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 2: Well, I went back and I told the clerk, I said,

589
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 2: these are disgusting.

590
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 1: I want my money back.

591
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 6: Did you get your money back?

Speaker 1: I got the money back because they were disgusting.

593
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 4: So there've been lawsuits over the snack chip makers not

594
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 4: completely filling the bags. Most of those got dismissed, but

595
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 4: they kind of started this. There's been hundreds of lawsuits

596
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 4: since twenty nineteen. People are claiming this is a good one.

597
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 4: They're being misled by vanilla flavored products. They don't actually

598
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 4: contain pure vanilla or vanilla beans.

599
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they're pready to.

600
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 2: Take that to a lab and have it analyzed artificial flavoring,

601
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 2: and usually that is in the ingredient list, which is

602
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: you know, extremely tiny and you know it's like the

603
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 2: seventeenth ingredient on the list.

604
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with the that one worked.

605
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 4: Doctor Pepper and A and W paid fifteen million dollars

606
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,880
Speaker 4: to settle claim some customers who said made with age

607
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 4: vanilla was not real synthetic flavoring.

608
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: That yeah, that's just that's just lawyers raping these companies.

609
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 2: They I'm there's nobody actually upset that there isn't real vanilla.

610
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 6: I would be upset if I wanted to buy something

611
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 6: that had real, natural vanilla and it didn't say that

612
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 6: it was artificial or something that that smells and tastes

613
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 6: like vanilla, I'd be upset.

614
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: Now would I go?

615
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 5: So?

616
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: Probably not, I'd be upset.

617
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 6: I'd be very disappointed.

618
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: You could sign onto a class action losses.

619
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 2: It's gotta bet a dollar a wild ride going shopping

620
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: with you.

621
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: She's upset about the fake vanilla in the way.

622
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 6: Because if I'm buying something that says that it's real,

623
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 6: then I expected to be real now.

624
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 4: In the Burger King case, the claim is that advertisements

625
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: and photos on the store of menu boards show burgers

626
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 4: that are about thirty five percent larger with double the

627
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 4: meat than the burgers people purchased.

628
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: And John's right. You have to be an eight year

629
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: old to know that the picture is supposed to entice you,

630
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: but it's not real.

631
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 4: Well someth they always say that they have a little

632
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 4: disclaimer underneath, not actual size.

633
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: It's stupid.

634
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 2: So Burger King has a billboard over a freeway and

635
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: there's a gigantic burger.

636
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 1: No, it's a menu board in the store. It wouldn't

637
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: be a jo.

638
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 2: It's the same thing that you don't have to present

639
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 2: the actual proportion.

640
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: But don't you wouldn't that be the way.

641
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 3: I'm just put a.

642
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 2: Little disclaimer underneath. And sometimes they do. You know, you

643
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 2: know about the potato chip bag scam. See, they are

644
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 2: with the air people are very sensitive to because people

645
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 2: are stupid on this too, they're sensitive to price changes.

646
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 2: So let's say a bag of potato chips. I don't

647
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: even know what they cost. What do they cost? Like fifty? Okay,

648
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: so let's say they're two fifty. You don't want to

649
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: raise them to three dollars. So instead of putting ten

650
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: ounces of potato chips, you put eight ounces of potato chips.

651
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 2: She keep the price the same way because people will

652
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 2: be sensitive to the price, but they will not generally

653
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 2: be sensitive to fewer ounces of potato chips. And so

654
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 2: you have more and more air in the bag. And

655
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: that that's the scam they pull.

656
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: All right, we got more coming up.

657
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 4: We are approaching the three o'clock hour and it's Friday,

658
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 4: So what's going to happen is we're returning with the

659
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 4: Moistline people at three twenty and near the end of

660
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 4: the show, and we are returning with mob members to

661
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 4: throw a hack into the dumpster. Some of that just

662
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 4: came up on our radar in the last couple of weeks,

663
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 4: and the audio that goes with this is unbelievable. John

664
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 4: Cobet will decid when the mob lifts this person up

665
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 4: and hurls them into the dumpster. It could be ten

666
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 4: seconds in, it could be a minute in.

667
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I may want to hear the whole thing. Yeah,

668
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: I don't think you're going to get to the whole thing.
