1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,239 Speaker 1: Can't. I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,439 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 2: app Coming up after two point thirty, the US Supreme 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 2: Court is going to finally hear a case about cities 5 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 2: right a city's right to get people off the streets 6 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: who are camping. I think that's the euphemism all the 7 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: mental patients and drug addicts who sleep in tents and 8 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,919 Speaker 2: sleeping bags laid out on sidewalks in parks all over 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: public areas. There's been a confusing set of Appeals Court's decisions, 10 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 2: mostly misread by people in power, and finally the whole 11 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 2: mess is going to the US Supreme Court. We're going 12 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: to talk to Kent Schydecker, he's the legal director for 13 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation to explain this case. There's 14 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: a lot of states and cities, and certainly Los Angeles 15 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 2: and San Francisco have an extreme interest in this because 16 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: there are courts that have and a lot of it's 17 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals who have issued a 18 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: confusing set of decisions which I think which I think 19 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: a lot of these cities and states intentionally misread because 20 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: it gives them cover to continue their pro vagrant policies 21 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 2: to keep their cities filthy. We'll get to that coming 22 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: up after two thirty. Okay, Now onto Nathan Hackman. Nathan 23 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 2: Hochman's run of the leading candidates for La County District Attorney, 24 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: and he was holding a press conference today outside of 25 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: George Gascon's office demanding that Gascone get rid of Tiffany 26 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: black Now as his chief of staff. Nathan's going to 27 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: come on and explain why, Nathan, how are you very well? 28 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 3: John? Thanks for inviting me on. 29 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: Did you just have this press conference? Is an upcoming? 30 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: We just had it. It was right in front of 31 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 3: the Hall of Justice, George Gascon's office, and I demanded, 32 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: not just as a candidate for a District Attorney, but 33 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: as a citizen of La County, that he terminated Tiffany 34 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: Blacknell is chief of staff who took her first day 35 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: of office today. Because she is the most pro criminal, 36 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: anti police chief of staff the LA District Attorney's Office 37 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 3: has ever had. 38 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,679 Speaker 2: She has written a number of incendiary things online. She 39 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 2: was proudly reminding the world that she was even a 40 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 2: part of the Rodney King riots back in the early nineties. 41 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 3: And very true and she actually has written that is, 42 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 3: she's described the police as barbarians, an occupying army. She's 43 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: actually posted a picture of herself wearing a T shirt 44 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: saying that the police are trained to kill us. You know, again, 45 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 3: when you want to send a message to your own prosecutors, 46 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: to law enforcement, and to the public that you're going 47 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 3: to be someone to prosecute crime, this is the opposite 48 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: of that message. And by the way, consistent with Gascon's 49 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 3: message that he's more interested in criminals rights than victims' rights. 50 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 2: It's interesting after three years of getting so much criticism 51 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 2: for his policies and he's weeks away from this election, 52 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 2: is primary election where he's not doing well in the polls. 53 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: I mean that he would stick a finger in everybody's 54 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: eye and say, you know what, I'm going to go 55 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: with Tiffany. Tiffany Blacknell, here is my chief of staff. 56 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean that's outrageous nerve. 57 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 3: I mean, stick a finger is one way to describe it. 58 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 3: I viewed as a slap in the face. I mean, 59 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 3: imagine if your law enforcement, you're the police chief or 60 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: you're the sheriff, and you're trying to attract more officers 61 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 3: to work in Los Angeles, and not only is the 62 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: DA the most pro criminal DA, but he's just doubled 63 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: down on that message by putting someone who's never been 64 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: a DA. I mean Tiffany Black now with a deputy 65 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: public defender her whole life, she's had these incendiary statements 66 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: about basically hating the police, believing the police are our enemy. 67 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 3: There are barbarians, you know, they are an occupying army. 68 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 3: And this is the one. The person that he has 69 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: now elevated is his chief of staff, to be his 70 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 3: representative to his own people, to the public into law enforcement. 71 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: I'd say it was shocking. If not it was consistent 72 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 3: with what George Gascon has done for the last three years. 73 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: Does he have a political death wish here? 74 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: I mean, this really is the stupidest thing to do, 75 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: you know, six seven weeks before a primary election, when 76 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 2: he's got ten people running against him, you know, with you, 77 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: with you at the top of the list. 78 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: Again, if ever you could, you know, if George Gascon's 79 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 3: one thing, he is consistently stupid, he's consistently pro criminal 80 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: and actually transparent about it. The voters weren't paying as 81 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 3: much attention in twenty twenty when he was saying these 82 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 3: things because he didn't have a track record. Now he's 83 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: got a three plus year track record of being the 84 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 3: most pro criminal district attorney in the history of that office. 85 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 3: Boasting that he has saved violent and serious offenders over 86 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 3: ten thousand years of prison time, which the evidence in 87 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 3: the law called for, but which he will not authorize 88 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: his prosecutors to bring. 89 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: He's great, way, way well to time out. I haven't 90 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: heard this one before. 91 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: He's actually bragging that he saved ten thousand years worth 92 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 2: of prison time. 93 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: Correct, over ten thousand years of prison time has not 94 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 3: gone to violent and serious offenders because he won't bring 95 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: the charges that the evidence justified that would have resulted 96 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 3: in that additional prison time. And he actually boasts that 97 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 3: that is a badge of honor for him. And what's 98 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 3: iron ironical is that ironic is that it would be 99 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 3: a bit badge of honor for a defense attorney. It's 100 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 3: a badge of shame for a district attorney that's supposed 101 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 3: to represent the public and victims. And George Gascon simply 102 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: does not get it. 103 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 2: How does having Tiffany Blackneil as his chief of staff? 104 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: How do you think can you explain how that would 105 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: affect prosecutions cases of the behavior of the deputy das well. 106 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: Again, she has a very loud say in the policies 107 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: that will govern all over nine hundred deputy district attorneys 108 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: out there and the one hundred or so thousand cases 109 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 3: are going to prosecute. So, for instance, when they say 110 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,119 Speaker 3: that they will not bring a gun enhancement if someone 111 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 3: uses a gun, or a gang enhancement if you're part 112 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: of a gang, that that message will be doubled down upon. 113 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 3: While Tiffany Blacknail is sort of cracking the whip on 114 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 3: those nine hundred plus prosecutors. And again it's shocking that 115 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: someone who's never been a prosecutor is now the chief 116 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 3: of staff of over nine hundred of them. That shows 117 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 3: Gascon's reliance on people who have no experience because he 118 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 3: himself has never personally prosecuted a criminal case in his 119 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 3: entire life. 120 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: As you've been campaigning, meeting a lot of people, appearing 121 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: at various forums and question and answer events, do you 122 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: what kind of sense do you get on how the 123 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: public is viewing this race. I mean, obviously nobody was 124 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: paying attention four years ago, and there were a lot 125 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: of distractions that year, and this one's snuck by everyone. 126 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: What do you think the general understanding of this race 127 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 2: is by the public. 128 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 3: I think that the general understanding is that the public 129 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 3: finally gets it that the DA's position is very important 130 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 3: and crucial for their own safety, the safety of themselves, 131 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: their family, their neighborhoods and communities. And I've seen this 132 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 3: across the political spectrum. It's not risk Republicans, it's Democrats 133 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: and Independence that have come to my campaign campaign events 134 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: that have been generously supporting my campaign. In fact, we've 135 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 3: hit campaign fundraising records based on the enthusiasm that we've 136 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 3: gotten from across the entire political spectrum. So I am 137 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 3: seeing a groundswell of anger and support that is going 138 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 3: to ride George Gascon out of office, starting first in 139 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: the March twenty twenty four primaries, and then if he 140 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 3: makes it through the primary, certainly in the November election 141 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 3: when I beat him. Our polling shows if that election 142 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 3: was today, I would beat him by fifteen to twenty points. 143 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 2: All right, well, I wish you a lot of luck, 144 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: and we'll certainly talk again before before election day in 145 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 2: March for the primary. Give out your information if people 146 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 2: on to access your website to read more about you, 147 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: to donate the campaign. 148 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: What is that website? 149 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 3: Sure, the website is Nathan Hawkman natchan Hocchman dot com. 150 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 2: And John, thank you very much for having me on anytime. 151 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: Thank you for coming on, Nathan, appreciate it. Talk with 152 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: you again soon. That's Nathan Hockman, And if you don't 153 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 2: know his background, he is a former federal prosecutor, an 154 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: assistant US Attorney General, also president of the Los Angeles 155 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 2: City Ethics Commission, and he has been polling well in 156 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: this race to replace Gascon. Others have as well, and 157 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: will certainly be highlighting other candidates. But you know, he 158 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 2: made the case today against Tiffany black Now, who is 159 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: Gascone is a disaster. Tiffany Blackmail is a disaster, and 160 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: it's really a shame that we all have to live 161 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 2: through this. But that's why you got to pay attention. 162 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 2: You got to vote. You got to get up on 163 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: election day in the first week, first Tuesday in March, 164 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: and you got to vote against Gascon. You know, we 165 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: could change this. There's fourteen thousand cases that he is 166 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: not prosecuted intentionally, fourteen thousand sitting in the system. And 167 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: this I hadn't heard before, where Nathan Hockman said he's 168 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 2: bragging that he has saved ten thousand hours of prison 169 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: time for felony prisoners by withholding charges against them that 170 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: would have increased their prison say ten thousand extra hours 171 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: that these guys will have to commit their next felony, 172 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: and he's bragging about it. So we're beyond debating this. 173 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: There's no more conversations to have. It's impossible to converse 174 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 2: with these people. They simply have to be removed. Gascone 175 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: has to be removed and forced to take Tiffany Blackneil 176 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 2: with him. She is a piece of work. She is 177 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: about is I've never seen such a public cop hater 178 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 2: in my life. And she's gleeful about it. She revels 179 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 2: in me. Go look at her social media. Holy mackerel. 180 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: You know, another cluster b situation. More coming up. 181 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 182 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 4: six forty. 183 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: Coming up at two point thirty, we are going to 184 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: talk with Kent Scheidegger. He's the legal director of the 185 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 2: Criminal Justice Legal Foundation. He has filed a brief as 186 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: a friend of the court to try to fight a 187 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 2: court decision. It's actually there's been several court decisions that 188 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 2: has made it so, they say, very difficult for cities 189 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 2: and states to remove vagrants off the streets, people living 190 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: in public areas like sidewalks, rhodes parks. The US Supreme 191 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: Court has agreed to hear it appeal. Los Angeles and 192 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 2: San Francisco and San Diego also wants this ruling overturned. 193 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 2: It was in twenty nineteenth Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals 194 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 2: known as Martin versus the City of Boise. There's also 195 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: another case which was the City of Grant's Pass versus Johnson. 196 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 2: So hopefully everyone rational in this world is hoping the 197 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 2: Supreme Court will overturn these appeals Court decisions. Kent Sidegger, 198 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 2: the legal director, is going to explain the details. 199 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: This is important. This could have a. 200 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: Real impact on all the mental patients and drug addicts 201 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: running around in the streets making life unpleasant for us. 202 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: That's just after the two thirty news. 203 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: We talked about this briefly the other day, and now 204 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: there's a video and I've just seen screenshots of it. 205 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 2: This is not something that maybeybe It's out there. 206 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: I don't know yet. 207 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: It's about the guy who has found dead inside the 208 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: engine of that Delta plane in Utah. 209 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: Remember that story. 210 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: They have a lot of detail now on how he 211 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: ended up inside the engine. His name was Kyler Effinger, 212 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 2: thirty years old of Park City. This happened on New 213 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: Year's Day. He climbed into the turbine of the aircraft. 214 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: It was sitting on the Salt Lake City Airport awaiting takeoff. 215 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 2: There was one hundred people on board, so they've first 216 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: to start off the story. They pieced together video from 217 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: various airport cameras and they showed him being dropped off 218 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: at the airport. By the way, keep track here of 219 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 2: how many times security should have nabbed him and they 220 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: didn't remember this. Next time they grab a bottle of 221 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 2: water out of your backpack, or they do. 222 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 5: A random check of my suitcase. 223 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: And you know they're busy giving you that extra frisk 224 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:49,119 Speaker 2: exactly one of my one of my sons. He's a ballplayer, 225 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: so he's well built, and there's some questionable TSA agents 226 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: who over frisked him when he's tries to get through security. 227 00:13:59,800 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: Uh. 228 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: This footage from Fox thirteen shows him being dropped off 229 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: at the airport, going through security, all right. Then he 230 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 2: walks through the terminal and he starts running away from 231 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: the gate, and he's tossing all his belongings into the air. 232 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: Then he. 233 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: Runs to a locked door at the gate and tries 234 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: to open it, couldn't. Had a quick interaction with airport employee. 235 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 2: Then he ran off to another door and took his 236 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: shoe and struck the window, didn't get anywhere, took off 237 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: a third time and kicked an emergency exit door open, 238 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 2: ran down the stairwell and headed out onto the tarmac. 239 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 2: He then runs for the plane, which was turned on. 240 00:14:54,360 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: It was de icing, and he climbed into He climbed 241 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: inside the engine was mounted on the wing, and he 242 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: had crawled into what they called the intake cowling that 243 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: directs air to the engine fan section. Now it doesn't 244 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: seem like he got chopped up. The early reports it 245 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: was unclear, and it was because it said that they 246 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: administered the locks on at the scene, so I guess 247 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 2: he was under it was some kind of opioid that 248 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: he was having. But he was pronounced dead there because 249 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: they had said he was partially in that intec cowling, 250 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 2: which made me think, well, maybe he was ground up, 251 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: so only part of him was there and the other part. 252 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: Was in the engine. 253 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 5: I don't need that visual. 254 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. Sorry, I always get out of control. 255 00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 2: The thing is, they called his dad, and you feel better, 256 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 2: But his dad said, well, he got held up in security. 257 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 2: He was going to see his grandfather who was supposedly sick. 258 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 2: So Kyler got held up in security, missed his flight, 259 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: and those phone calls. I just knew it was coming on. 260 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 2: They call it the manic phrase, the manic phase. Those 261 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 2: just don't end well for him. Obviously, this one was 262 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 2: the worst one ever. A little bit of understatement from 263 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: dad there. So he knew his son was nuts and 264 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 2: his son was having some sort of manic issue and 265 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: he ends up inside a plane engine. But something must 266 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: have happened to him that he died. It's maybe he 267 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: did get hit by the turbine, right, Maybe he wasn't 268 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 2: chopped up and maybe he got hit. 269 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, must exactly, because he didn't. He didn't die of 270 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 5: a drug overdose. 271 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: No, no, I mean they gave him the lock zone. 272 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 2: So I thought maybe it was an overdose, But maybe 273 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 2: he just got whacked in the head by one of 274 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: the turbines and it didn't shop them up, but not 275 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 2: you know, knocked them unconscious and dead. So that what's 276 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 2: disturbing though, is at how many points should somebody have 277 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: nabbed him? 278 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 5: Well, that makes no sense, exactly. 279 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: Don't they have? 280 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: I always thought they had cops and undercover security in offices, 281 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 2: just inside panels right as you're running down the runway, 282 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 2: that they're like secret doors or secret panels where these 283 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: guys can jump out and take care of any kind 284 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: of a terrorist or intruder. 285 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 5: Maybe they were on their lunch break at the time, 286 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 5: all of them. 287 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 2: And what's the point of having all these sealed doors 288 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 2: If the emergency exit you could throw. I understand why 289 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 2: you'd have an emergency exit wide open, but again, shouldn't 290 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 2: there be somebody guarding it there, especially when the guy 291 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 2: is running from security and throwing his clothes all around. 292 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: All Right, we come back. 293 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 2: We're going to talk with Ken Scheidegger from he's the 294 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 2: legal director for the Criminal Justice League Foundation, and it's 295 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: about these appeals court rulings which have created and aggravated 296 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: homeless situations all over the western half of the country, 297 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 2: including Los Angeles and San Francisco.

And in that old case, the status 342 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 6: was being a drug addicting. So the Ninth Circuit took 343 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 6: that case and they said that if you don't let 344 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 6: a person sleep on the street and they don't have 345 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 6: a shelter to go to, there's no space available in shelters, 346 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 6: then you're effectively punishing them for the status of being homeless. 347 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 6: And that violates that old case, which is pretty absurd 348 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 6: because you know, criminal law generally involves some act, and 349 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 6: sleeping in a public place or camping out in the 350 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 6: public place is an act, and so that old case 351 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 6: doesn't really apply. 352 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 2: Right, they were being arrested for the act of sleeping 353 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 2: in a public place. They weren't being arrested due to 354 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 2: their homelessness. 355 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 6: That's correct. 356 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: And did the cities. 357 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 2: Misinterpret this in any way. 358 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 6: Well, there's a lot of variation, but you know, it 359 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 6: was a pretty The first ruling was a pretty ruling. 360 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,959 Speaker 6: So the case they have now the city of Grant's 361 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 6: Pass in Oregon. The first ruling was some boise and 362 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 6: now we got the one from Grant's Pass in Oregon, 363 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 6: and they tried to get around it by saying, Okay, 364 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 6: we won't make it a crime, we'll just make it 365 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 6: a citation. And then if you repeatedly get citations and 366 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 6: that becomes a crime. So they tried to modify it 367 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 6: some and get around the ruling, but the Ninth Circuit 368 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 6: basically shot him down and said no, even that, it 369 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 6: still ends up being a crime on the repeated Did. 370 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: The court put any restrictions on sleeping in public? Didn't 371 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: they have a provision where it would they were allowed 372 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: to sleep from nine pm to six am something like that. 373 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 2: Well that's what I remember, because I had this argument 374 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 2: with a city councilman and I asked, well, why don't 375 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 2: you just rouse them every morning at six am? If 376 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 2: you keep rousing them day after day, eventually though get 377 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 2: tired of it and they they'll go somewhere where the 378 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 2: laws and being enforced. 379 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 6: So I thought that the Grant's Pass case. But I mean, 380 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 6: basically their rule is you can't stop people unless you 381 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 6: have enough open shelter spaces, and they can't be shelters 382 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,719 Speaker 6: with restrictions, you know, like no dogs or no drinking 383 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 6: or religion. They have to be just open. So if 384 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 6: anybody you know doesn't have any shelter that they can 385 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 6: go to or that they feel is overly restrictive, and 386 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 6: then you can't enforce ordinances. 387 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: So the only way for the city to respond to 388 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 2: these people sleeping in the street wasn't anything goes shelter 389 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 2: where they could bring all their booze and their drugs 390 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: and their crazy behavior and their dogs inside indoors. 391 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 6: Well pretty much, yeah, I mean, you know, you might 392 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 6: might quibble about how much restriction is too much, but 393 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 6: basically I can't let me ask. 394 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 2: You something from another direction because it is part of 395 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 2: the role of a judge not only to interpret the 396 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: literal interpretation of the text or try to figure out 397 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: what the intent was of those who wrote the law, 398 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 2: but also to consider the dramatic practical effect it has 399 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 2: on a society. Like when you're judging, you're taking in 400 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 2: a lot of factors, right, relying on your judgment here 401 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 2: what's best for the society, Because whatever their interpretations are, 402 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 2: it has created massive havoc in the streets here. Shouldn't 403 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 2: a judge look at the end result and say, oh, look, 404 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 2: there's got to be a better way. 405 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 6: Why that's part of the debate over what's the proper 406 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 6: way to interpret the Constitution, But either way it would 407 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 6: come out. You know, first it isn't even remotely close 408 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 6: to a interpretation of the Constitution as originally understood. And secondly, 409 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 6: it does have these adversk consequences. You know, there's even 410 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 6: an amakus brief from people whose mission is to try 411 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 6: to help them, and helping people with addiction problems is 412 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 6: complicated and not easy, and even the people trying to 413 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 6: help them say, look, we need some incentive to get 414 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 6: them into treatment, because your typical addict or drunk won't 415 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 6: go to treatment just for being asked. So it really 416 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 6: not only hurts the city with all these people sleeping 417 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 6: on the street, in the long run, it even hurts 418 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 6: the people who are there because of an addiction problem. 419 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: Right, So you're taking issue with the whole premise that 420 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 2: this doesn't this is not a case that the Eighth 421 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 2: Amendment should be applied to because you're. 422 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 6: Naturally not an Eighth Amendment case. I mean, the old 423 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 6: case was a stretch to use the Eighth Amendment rather 424 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 6: than some other provision of the Constitution. But it shouldn't 425 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 6: be extended to this. It shouldn't be extended at all. 426 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 2: What about people who are not in their right mind. 427 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 2: There's a lot of mental illness out there. You know, 428 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 2: at least, whether a drunk or a drug addict, you 429 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 2: might be able to get them in a lucid moment 430 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 2: and convince them to get some to get some help. 431 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 2: Right at least they have a shot to talk to them. 432 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 2: But when you have a crazy person who's in the 433 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 2: middle of a massive mental breakdown, in fact, they may 434 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 2: have had so much damage to their brain they can't 435 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 2: ever function. There's no mechanism for a city to take 436 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 2: those people in, not. 437 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 6: Unless they are so far gone that they're considered a 438 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 6: danger to themselves or to others. That's the standard that 439 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 6: was laid down many years ago, and that in itself 440 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,239 Speaker 6: is a controversy and a related one that maybe we 441 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 6: went too far in that, and that people who were 442 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 6: just in need of help and unable to rationally decide 443 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 6: whether to accept it should also become within the involuntary commitment. 444 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 2: Is it unreasonable to expect the Supreme Court with its 445 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 2: current makeup to throw out the Court of Appeals decision? 446 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 6: Oh No, I think it's quite reasonable to expect it. 447 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 6: I was surprised and they didn't take the Boise case 448 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 6: a couple of years ago, but now they've taken it up. 449 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 6: But the Ninth Circuit is out by itself. None of 450 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 6: the other circuits have gone that way, and I think 451 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 6: there's a strong chance this decision will is that right. 452 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: No other appeals court went along with this because obviously 453 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: the homeless situation in the West is far worse than 454 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 2: the other parts of the country, from Seattle to San 455 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 2: Francisco to Los Angeles to San Diego. You don't see 456 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 2: this kind of stuff in New York and Boston and Washington. 457 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: They got their problems, But it's. 458 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 6: Part because it doesn't get as cold on the California 459 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 6: coast or in the Central Valley as it does in Boston. 460 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 6: That's part of it. But another part is the laxity 461 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,239 Speaker 6: of government, in part because of this ruling and in 462 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 6: part because some of our cities are just very badly 463 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 6: run by people who don't know what they're doing right. 464 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: This really affected California, Alaska, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, 465 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 2: and Hawaii, just those nine states. 466 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 6: Correct, that's the Ninth Circuit. 467 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 2: Yes, all right, Kent Scheidegger, thank you for coming on. 468 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 2: And he helps understand. 469 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: This and he's the. 470 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 2: Legal director for the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation. It is 471 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 2: good news that the Supreme Court has accepted this, this 472 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: pair of cases, and maybe they'll reverse these decisions and 473 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 2: then the cities will no longer have an excuse not 474 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 2: to remove all the vagrants, drug addicts, and crazy people 475 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 2: that are littering the public spaces.
