1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Can'f I am six forty. You're listening to the John

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app. If you're just joining us.

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: We had Spencer Pratt on for an hour. He's second

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: in the race for mayor. Karen Bass has abysmal approval

5
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: ratings and she only has nineteen percent of the public

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: willing to vote for her, so she can be taken

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: out as mayor and Spencer Pratt can do it. We

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: had him on for an hour. I think he was great.

9
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: This is the this is the best way to go.

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: Here really the only way to go. So you listened

11
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: to him on the podcast. If you didn't get a

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,279
Speaker 1: chance and listen to the whole thing too, you could

Speaker 1: Slash at John Cobelt's show. Now we switch over to

16
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: this on It's unbelievable. We told you about David Allen

17
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: Funston getting elderly parole after all the little girls that

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: he raped and beat up and kidnapped. Well, we got

19
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: another one here. We got Gregory Vogel saying, fifty seven

20
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: years old, he was sentenced to three hundred and fifty

21
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: five years to life for sexually assaulting five young children,

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: and the parole board is letting him out in a week.

23
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: On March eighteenth, elderly parole again, he's only fifty seven.

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: Let's get Amory Schubert on, former Sacramento district attorney, and

25
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: she broke this news online yesterday. It's the first I

26
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: saw it. Anne, Marie, how are you.

27
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm good. Thanks so much for having me again. I

28
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: appreciate it.

29
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: John tell Us about Gregory Vogel, saying.

30
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: He was convicted out of Sacramento County. I think around

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety eight. He had multiple victims. As you mentioned,

32
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: there are almost exclusively young boys. I think as young

33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 2: as five years old. You know, he's a pedophile, that's

34
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: the bottom line. He sexually attracted to children. So he

35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: goes to prison. You know, he was. He was sentenced

36
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: by a judge in Sacramento County to three hundred and

37
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: fifty five years to life. So any rash human being

38
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: would believe that man is never going to get out

39
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: because he shouldn't. And so you know, here comes the

40
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: elderly parole law. I call it the Golden ticket to

41
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 2: getting out of prison, and all of a sudden, you know,

42
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: he's decided he wants to get out, so he goes

43
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: in front of a parole board. He was denied a

44
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: couple times, and then just last November he comes up

45
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: again and two commissioners thought that it would be a

46
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: good decision to let a fifty six year old man

47
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: out of prison that is a diagnosed pedophile and sexually

48
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 2: attracted to children. So it's it's an insane decision. Hopefully

49
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: next week the full board decides to reverse it. But

50
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,839
Speaker 2: that's why we're trying to get a call to action here,

51
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: for folks to call in, write in, send emails, and

52
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 2: you know, maybe the governor would step up and say,

53
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 2: you know, maybe it's just time for these people to resign.

54
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and maybe they should repeal the law that allows

55
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: this to happen to begin with. I would have thought

56
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: there are some limits on this elderly parole fifty seven,

57
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: he got three hundred and fifty five years to life.

58
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: It's twenty three counts of forcible loot acts on young boys.

59
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: One of them is youngest three years old. But what

60
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no standards anymore for this parole.

61
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: Well, the standards, in my opinion, when you read the transcripts,

62
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 2: the standards are, let's do everything in our power to

63
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 2: find a reason to let the guy out. I mean,

64
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: one of the things that's concerning about him, you know,

65
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,839
Speaker 2: he gets denied parole. I think in twenty twenty two,

66
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, he sat in prison for twenty three

67
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: years before he decided to actually say, well, maybe I

68
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 2: should start understanding why I commit these crimes. So it

69
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 2: starts a workbook program. It's called The Road to Freedom.

70
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: He's never had clinical treatment, as far as I could

71
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: tell from reading the transcripts. He's done a workbook, a

72
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 2: self help program.

73
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: What do you mean a workbook? Stop? Stop? What do

74
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: you mean a workbook?

75
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 2: It's called the Road to Freedom. If you start reading

76
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: these transcripts on sex offenders, they read the Road to Freedom.

77
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 2: It's a book. It's about how do I control my

78
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: urges and things like that. But there's no far as

79
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: I can tell, he's never availed himself of any kind

80
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 2: of clinical psychiatric treatment while he's been in prison. He

81
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 2: is a diagnosed pedophile, and so the question becomes, what

82
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,119
Speaker 2: are we doing here?

83
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: You can't control that you can't change that. If you're

84
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: a pedophile, you are attracted to little children the rest

85
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: of your life. It never goes away.

86
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 2: Well, look at mister Funston. His plan was, I have

87
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 2: an urge control plan, so when I think about children,

88
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: I'm just going to stop thinking about it. But let's

89
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: be honest. Come on, these are the most dangerous people.

90
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 2: They should be excluded from the law and they should

91
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 2: not be getting out of prison.

92
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: Why do they want to release these people? Why you

93
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: would think that anybody in office, regardless of what party

94
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: or what ideology they subscribe to, just as basic human being.

95
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,799
Speaker 1: Most of these people have children. You see what what

96
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: Gregor Vogel saying or David Allen Funston did, and it

97
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: would it would stop you dead, It would make you sick,

98
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: and you wouldn't let your fingerprints on releasing him.

99
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: You'd have to ask the pro board. But you know,

100
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 2: for me, it's just what are we doing here?

101
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: Again?

102
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: Like you say, John, what are we doing? We have

103
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: They're not one offs, as I would say, they are

104
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: multiple acts against multiple children. These are serial predators that

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: when they get out will most likely reoffend.

106
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: The Funston case was almost comical because he said, I'm

107
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: sure you read this that he'll just tell himself no

108
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: and splash water in his face to distract him. And

109
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: the commissioners thought that was a great idea. I thought

110
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: I was reading a parody.

111
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: I think that they look for reasons. If you really

112
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 2: dive into these transcripts, you know, they look for reasons

113
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: to say, oh, yes, that's a good reason. You've got

114
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 2: yourself under control. Now let's let you out. It's real

115
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: quite disturbing, particularly because, as I said, judges, you know,

116
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 2: juries have made decisions. California's voted it, and we passed

117
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 2: laws to make what we call one strike for sex offenders,

118
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: meaning we should be harsh, which we should be. And

119
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 2: that's all poof gone because Governor Newsom thought it was

120
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: a good idea to reduce the age to fifty and

121
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: only serve twenty. There is no truth in sentencing in

122
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 2: the state of California at all anymore. There just isn't.

123
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: If people want to write to somebody and try to

124
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: convince Newsom or the parole full Parole Board to reverse

125
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: this decision, who do they contact?

126
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:49,559
Speaker 2: They can email BPH dot Correspondent Unit at CDCR dot

127
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 2: CA dot gov. That is the place. They can go

128
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 2: on that site, they can email, they can call in.

129
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 2: Next week on March eighteenth, there is a hearing for

130
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 2: all of these people these This is not the only

131
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 2: one that's on next week. There's another guy that is

132
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: a convicted child molester that they want to let out again.

133
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: Another well, another one.

134
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a guy named Tyrell Martin at of San

135
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: Borgardino who molested a child that was I think very

136
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 2: very young, went to prison, got out, failed a register,

137
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 2: cut off his ankle monitor, they sent him back to prison,

138
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: and now they want to grant that guy parole as well.

139
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 2: So to me, you know, you have to be very

140
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a lot of work to be

141
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: you know, you got to be vigilant. But you know,

142
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: people who are just living their lives, John, I know.

143
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: But they didn't know that that it was the justice

144
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: system was designed this way. Nobody knows this. If you

145
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: went to like one hundred people on the street and

146
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: told them what's going on, all one hundred would be

147
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: crazy angry because how would they know.

148
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: Well, it's that's why we're raising the alarms, because this

149
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: is what will change the law. People are so outraged

150
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 2: at these decisions that I am ful that this our legislature,

151
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: as is blue, as the state is, has realized this

152
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 2: is not good politicize.

153
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: This is sick, this is perverse. All right, I know

154
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: you got to run. Thank you for coming on with us,

155
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: and I'm going to give out that that email address again.

156
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,960

Speaker 1: running for mayor Los Angeles in second place. Bass has

169
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: horrible approval numbers and very low voting numbers in this poll,

170
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,520

179
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: you know, five minutes to bang something out, and this

180
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: is to appeal to the border. I'm sorry the parole

181
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: board not to release Gregory Vogel sing Gregory Vogel saying

182
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: is one of the most disgusting, one of the most

183
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: vile prisoners we have. He'd lured, kidnapped, and sexually attacked

184
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: five young boys, one of them three years old. It

185
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: was so that a jury and a judge found him

186
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: guilty and he was sentenced to three hundred and fifty

187
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 1: five years to life. Three hundred and fifty five years

188
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: was the minimum to life. There was twenty three counts

189
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: of forcible loot acts on these five young boys. The

190
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 1: parle board is letting Gregory Vogel sing out on March eighteenth,

191
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: two parole commissioners, it's going before the full board. Newsome

192
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: can get in the way of this one. He can

193
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: reverse this decision. This is so sick and perverse. The

194
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,359
Speaker 1: legislature and that parole board is filled with sex perverts.

195
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: They have to be. I don't know of any normal

196
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: person that would want this. It's the third one this week.

197
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: So here's the email address. It's long, so write it

198
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: down BPH dot Correspondence Unit at CDCR dot CA dot gov.

199
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: I'll give it again, BPH dot Correspondence Unit at CDCR

200
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 1: dot CA dot gov, and tell them not to do this.

201
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: This is horrific. That's Greg Revogel saying. Now, just a

202
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, we had David Allen Funston sixty

203
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: eight years to life for kidnapping and raping eight children,

204
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: seven of them young girls. One girl he threw on

205
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: the side of the road. He beat up some of

206
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: these kids. He would kidnapping, kidnap them, rape them, beat

207
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: them up. As latest twenty twenty one, he admitted he

208
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: was pleasuring himself in prison fantasizing about young girls. In fact,

209
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: he had a specific young girl who used to live

210
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: across the street when she was eight. Then he told

211
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: the pro board, well, I have an urge control plan

212
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: and I'm not making this up. You could read the transcript.

213
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: He'll tell himself no, and he'll splash water in his face.

214
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: And the pro board said, yeah, it's good. They really did, say.

215
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: Gregory Vogel sang, David Allen Funston, and here's the third

216
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: guy we mentioned earlier this week. Roberto Trinidad, a home

217
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: invasion rapist HIV positive, breaks into a woman's home in

218
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: San Francisco and sodomizer, sodomizes her, rapes her, and he's

219
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: supposed to he's only he's getting out after eleven years.

220
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: That's three in a week. And if you heard former

221
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: Sacramento da Henry Schubert, she was on my segment he's

222
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: getting out. Well, there's a fourth one coming. There's a

223
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: fourth guy that's going to be getting out. So we

224
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 1: got David Allen Funston, we got Gregory Vogel saying we

225
00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: have Roberto de Trinidad now with Funston. He's been pulled

226
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: back into jail because there is another child molestation charge

227
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: that he was not prosecuted for in Placer County. This

228
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: is the sickest thing I ever heard, And the legislature

229
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: gave the pro board the power to do this. Gavin newsom.

230
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: He appointed all the members of the pro board. I

231
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: looked up everyone he appointed, every single member. These are

232
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: all sex perverts, They're all psycho they're all psychotic. I

233
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: say no to myself and I splash water in my face.

234
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: And by the way, they didn't get like, you know,

235
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: five to ten years. They got what some locals saying,

236
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty five years to life. All right,

237
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 1: do something. Got to vote differently when we come back

238
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: the Altadena fire. Remember they never sent fire warnings to

239
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: a lot of the people in West Altadia in nineteen

240
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: died and then we all got fire warnings in La County,

241
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 1: false fire warnings. What was their story of that? Well,

242
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: according to the LA According to public radio here in La,

243
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: the guy running the evacuation alerts, the guy in charge

244
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: of emergency workers has a long history of sleeping on

245
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: the job. Tell you who he is, tell you how

246
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: much he sleeps.

247
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI Am sixty.

248
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: In the first hour of the show, we had Spencer

249
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: Pratt on live in studio. You want to hear him.

250
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: He's the only hope running for mayor of Los Angeles

251
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: against Karen Bass. Nobody else has got what it takes

252
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: he does, and Bass has terrible numbers. She's wildly unpopular,

253
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: only a twenty four percent approval rating, and only nineteen

254
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: percent of the public wants to vote for her. Spencer's

255
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: aid ten. Much of the public either doesn't know who

256
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: he is he was TV star years ago, or they

257
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: don't think he'd be a serious candidate. Oh he is

258
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: dead serious, or they don't think he could win. Well,

259
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: he's got actually quite a campaign all set up already,

260
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: and he's hitting on all the right issues. Stop all

261
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: this crazy funding for the homeless industrial complex, that whole

262
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: money laundering scam that's going on. Put it into the police,

263
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: put it into the fire, enforce the laws on the streets,

264
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: force people off the streets and get into some kind

265
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: of treatment or you get arrested. That's what you got

266
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: to do. Clean up the garbage once and for all.

267
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: He says, sanitation department is not even bothering. So he's

268
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: right on all this. You can follow him on social

269
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: media and see all his videos. But we're gonna have him.

270
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,240

Speaker 1: the our number one of the podcasts on the iHeart app.

273
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm not making this up. This is from la Public Radio.

274
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: They have a website called LAist dot com. Aaron Stone

275
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: is the reporter and a whistleblower. Well, let's go back.

276
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: While the Palisades Fire was burning, we had the Altadena fire,

277
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: also known as the Eaton Fire, and that destroyed over

278
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: six thousand homes, and that killed nineteen people, mostly in

279
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: West Altadena, which is the historic black neighborhoods in Altadena

280
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: and in that section of town. They never got a

281
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: warning about the fire until almost three thirty am. And

282
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,959
Speaker 1: the fire started at six thirty pm the night before,

283
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 1: And everybody's going, why is this? How did this happen?

284
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: They let people burn to death. They didn't even warn them. Yeah, yeah,

285
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: they got the lady, They got the phone buzzing at

286
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,959
Speaker 1: three thirty in the morning. Everyone slept through it. Oh

287
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: remember all the Phony County fire warnings. We got him here, right.

288
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: Remember that day. I think I was driving home from

289
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: work and suddenly my phone is buzzing in my car

290
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: telling me to evacuate. I'm looking down. It'saying I'm at

291
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: Burbank what are you talking about. So they didn't send

292
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: out warnings to the people who burned to death, but

293
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: they sent out warnings to everybody else in the county

294
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 1: who were nowhere near the fire. And it's the office

295
00:17:53,480 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: of Emergency Management. So according to la Public Radio, we

296
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: have a whistleblower who's filed a complaint. His name. We

297
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: have his name, Nick Vicario, associate director in the county

298
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: Office of Emergency Management, and the guy in charge of

299
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 1: emergency workers. According to Nick Vicaro, the guy in charge

300
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 1: of the workers who sent out the evacuation warnings has

301
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 1: quote a long history of sleeping on the job, and

302
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: he named him. Va Caro said he saw Steve Lieberman,

303
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: a nearly forty year county employee, a sleep at work

304
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: more than a dozen times in the two years prior

305
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: to Lieberman supervising the overnight shift. On the evening of

306
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: January seventh into the morning of January eighth, the whistleblower

307
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: says Lieberman was sleeping in his office during the overnight shift.

308
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: Although Lieberman's denying he was sleeping the night of the fire,

309
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: LAist Public Radio spoke with several witnesses to Lieberman's on

310
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: the job sleeping who corroborated Vaccaro's account about Liberman's history.

311
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: LAist is not naming these sources. They fear their careers

312
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: and reputations could be seriously harmed by speaking up public.

313
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: We've got to get a that's a whole nother long

314
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: brant I want to give. The firefighters are afraid to

315
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 1: speak out. Everybody who works for basses afraid to speak out.

316
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: They're afraid to speak out. The county emergency management workers.

317
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to Nobody wants to be retaliated against and

318
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: lose their jobs or be demorted. And look what's happened.

319
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 1: Look what's happened because everybody's afraid. Lieberman, when presented with

320
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: these complaints, says, well, I'm not going to say that

321
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 1: never happened in thirty eight years. I'm sixty three years old.

322
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: I've got some health issues. We work a lot of

323
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: over time. I think the answer to that is retirement.

324
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: If you can't stay awake for your shift and you're

325
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: in charge of emergency workers and you're falling asleep every night,

326
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one thing when I yawn, you know

327
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: a million times during this show, right, I mean, I'm

328
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: not but plus we're not. We're not that stimulating for you.

329
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: I understand. I mean you're a one woman personal review

330
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: every afternoon.

331
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 2: Life depends on me.

332
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: You know, being tired, and you're up when you have

333
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: warnings to give. Yeah, you're awake, you're waight during those

334
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: news stays. Absolutely, it's just in between. But the guy

335
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: is in charge of making your phone buzz to tell

336
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: you to pack up your car and get out or

337
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna die.

338
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 4: Everybody's human. John and.

339
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: I worked the overnight shift for a year and a half.

340
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 5: No, I've done a few overnight shifts, and I know

341
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 5: I'm not made for that.

342
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: I know I'm not, But you stay. I stayed awake. Well,

343
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: I drank four cups of coffee and I don't drink

344
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: well at that time, I didn't drink. I just drank VCARO.

345
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 1: Get this, the County Emergency Management office had only thirty

346
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 1: seven people in it and a fourteen million dollar budget.

347
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: Compare that and we got ten million people, right, we

348
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: got ten million residents, thirty seven people. New York City

349
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: has fewer people than LA County eight and a half million,

350
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: but they have two hundred staffers in their emergency management department.

351
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: Five times the staff LA County has. We have more

352
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 1: people than New York City and one fifth staff. They

353
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: have eighty eight million. They spend We have fourteen million.

354
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: What are the La County superrises? What are those five

355
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: women doing? They can't fund the emergency management office with

356
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,959
Speaker 1: the earthquake potential. Here I'm talking to you, held a Salise.

357
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 1: Let me see I remember their names. Lindsey Horvath, Hilda Salise,

358
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: Catherine Barger, Holly Mitchell, and Janis han Yep did it

359
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: this time? What's with you five ladies on that non

360
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,239
Speaker 1: diverse board? Wait? Who do you want to give him?

361
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: Fourteen million dollars? San Diego has one third our population.

362
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: They have more people in their department. They have forty three,

363
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: We have thirty seven. They have a budget almost as

364
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: much as LA twelve million. We have fourteen, one third

365
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: the population. Oh quickly, and the other thing that Karo

366
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: told last they don't have that many people. He said,

367
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: everything was lining up that showed this was going to

368
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: be the most catastrophic windstorm we'd ever had, worse than

369
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: the twenty eleven windstorm. And we were going back and

370
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: forth saying, well, who's available. They hardly had anyone available

371
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: because coming out of the holidays, a lot of people

372
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: have taken time off. So who's around it's gonna be

373
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: the worst storm and the worst fire danger ever in

374
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: the history of La County. Who's around to work in

375
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: emergency services? Anybody? He says, every party should have been available.

376
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 1: All right, more coming up.

377
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A

378
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 3: six forty.

379
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: All right, we just told you about how the Altadena fire.

380
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:50,439
Speaker 1: The guy in charge of the guy who oversaw the

381
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: staff that sent out the emergency alerts, he apparently compulsively

382
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,719
Speaker 1: falls asleep on the job, according to a whistleblower. And

383
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: you may remember that most of those alerts never reached

384
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: West Altadena. In nineteen people died. Not to mention that

385
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: nearly all of us in La County got phony alerts.

386
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: Now we find out one of the guys in charge

387
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 1: of the unit sleeps a lot on the job. Now

388
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: in Malibu, because you had fires in the palace age,

389
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: that same fire also burned a significant part of Malibu.

390
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: Hardly any permits have been issued, and Fox eleven reporter

391
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: Matthew Sheedorff has the story.

392
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,360
Speaker 6: We're along pach S nine and take a look at this.

393
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 6: This is where all those homes were. It almost looks

394
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 6: like a time capsule. Not a lot has changed since

395
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 6: last year. You can understand why some residents are angry.

396
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 4: Uh, this is the family home that I was raised

397
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 4: in and I was raising my daughter in.

398
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: So mardon, you were.

399
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 6: Here the night of the palace hits fire.

400
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: What was it like?

401
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 3: Everything was on fire and no one was doing anything?

402
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 4: Wade, you know, his face covered in shoot. I couldn't

403
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 4: stop the fire, saying I'm sorry, man, I couldn't stop

404
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 4: the fire.

405
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: It was horrible. They're family to me. There was no water.

406
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 6: Looking back at that, did you imagine that we'd still

407
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 6: be looking like this fourteen to fifteen months later?

408
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: No, this is an absolute abuse. I mean, this is

409
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: this is where we're at today.

410
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 4: It is slow, and it is frustrating, and there's no

411
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 4: excuse for this.

412
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 6: Thirty seven single family homes have had the permits approved,

413
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 6: more than six hundred burned. We're talking about five percent rong.

414
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 5: Jery, about five percent in a city that has culturally

415
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 5: been not very favorable to growth.

416
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 4: And we just need the city and its consultants to

417
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 4: understand the urgency.

418
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 6: We're on pace for Malibu to rebuild in twenty years.

419
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 6: How do we speed this up?

420
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 5: At the current pace, that number could well be a

421
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 5: reality in this hill. If you have to construct a property,

422
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 5: you need to undergo soil testing and jew reports and

423
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 5: so on and so forth.

424
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 4: They're basically saying, well, we don't trust the geology from

425
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 4: sixty five years ago. We're going as long as we're

426
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 4: going to, you know, hold you to other code for

427
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 4: the fire, We're gonna hold you another code.

428
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: That's unrelated to the fire.

429
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 5: I think we need to take a completely sort of

430
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 5: a zero based budgeting approach, which is, if we had

431
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 5: ten days to issue a permit, what does the process

432
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 5: need to look like.

433
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 6: You can hear the anger. They're just demanding urgency at night.

434
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: You could preach urgency. We're trying to get them to

435
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 1: understand the urgency. They understand. Whoever's running Malibu get this.

436
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: They don't care. Fourteen months and there's thirty seven permits

437
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: and six hundred burned out homes. Yeah, it's gonna take

438
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 1: you twenty years at the rate of this permit approval.

439
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,360
Speaker 1: They want it this way. It's by design. All of

440
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: this is by design. People go. Why don't they understand? Now,

441
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: they understand this is what they want. They're tyrants, they

442
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: want control. I don't think people in Irano, why doesn't

443
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: the iatola understand? Why doesn't he have a sense of urgent?

444
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 1: No atola understand or understood perfectly. All dictators and rulers.

445
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 1: They understand perfectly what they're doing. They know you're upset,

446
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 1: they know what's unfair, they know you're pissed off. They

447
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: don't care. The only difference here different than Russia or

448
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: Cuba or Iran, is we can vote all these pastards

449
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: out and get new people in, force them to change

450
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: existing laws and regulations. But we don't do that. We

451
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 1: let them be tyrants. Seeing they're the countries. Short of

452
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: an armed coup, you can't get rid of the dictators

453
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: or the iatolus. But here we can peacefully just go vote.

454
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:02,879
Speaker 1: Vote for somebody different, so for somebody who cares. But

455
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: we don't. Everybody votes for the same garbage over and

456
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: over and over again. And then yeah, they let your

457
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 1: house burn, and then they won't let you build it.

458
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: And I bet you all these people get reelected.

459
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 4: All right.

460
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: When we come back along these same lines, doctor oz

461
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: we played his clip again yesterday, came to Van Eyes

462
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,480
