1 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: I just want my gold medal back. That quote from 2 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 1: a sixty five year old former olympian who just had 3 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: his prize possession stolen. More on that in a moment. 4 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:17,479 Speaker 1: But hello to you all. 5 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 2: I'm Tjailholk and I'm Amy Roboch. It's Wednesday, September twenty fifth. 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 2: And on today's morning run watches warnings and evacuations as 7 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 2: we wait for Helene to become a hurricane. 8 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 1: Also a shocking revelation an NFL legend reveals he has 9 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: a degenerative degenerative brain condition. Also, Missouri execute the man 10 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: that even the prosecutors wanted freed. 11 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: Plus Congress is in total agreement and unanimously passes a bill, 12 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: and the DOJ sues Visa. 13 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: And on today's run as well, Diddy sitting in jail 14 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: but facing a new lawsuit. Also, we now know what 15 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: proof Jordan Child has that that medal is hers. 16 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: Olympian is willing to make a deal with the thief 17 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 2: that stole his metal. And if Brad Pitt messages you 18 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: don't respond, we'll explain. 19 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: But we do need to start our morning run in Florida, 20 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: where all eyes are on Tropical Storm Helene. Yes, a 21 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: tropical storm now soon going to be a hurricane. Mandatory 22 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: evacuations are underway as Floridians prepare for what could be 23 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: the strongest storm we've seen make landfall in the US 24 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: in a year. 25 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: Tropical storm force winds could be felt in the Keys 26 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 2: as early as this afternoon, and experts believe in a 27 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: very short amount of time, Helene could turn into a 28 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: major Category three hurricane as it intensifies over those very 29 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 2: warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico. Helene is moving 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: faster than initially anticipated, so that means time is running 31 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: out for folks in Florida to prepare and to evacuate, 32 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: and officials believe the entire southeast should prepare as well 33 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: to be impacted by this storm. 34 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: Both Florida and Georgia have already declared states of emergency, 35 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: and officials are warning Alabama and the Carolinas all need 36 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: to be bracing for dangerous weather. So you know it 37 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: comes with these torrential rain, those strong winds, tornadoes. We 38 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: could see all of this in a good section of 39 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: the country by the end of the week. 40 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: All right. Our morning run continues and takes us to Washington, 41 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: DC Super Bowl champion NFL Hall of Famer Brett Farv 42 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: dropped a bombshell yesterday in all places Congress. Farv was 43 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: testifying before an oversight committee about welfare reform when he 44 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 2: revealed that he's been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. 45 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: And Parkinson's is a nervous system disorder that can cause 46 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: problems with motor function and speech over time. It is 47 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: a degenerative brain condition, and concussions have been linked to 48 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: an increased risk for Parkinson's. Farv has previously said that 49 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: he believes he's had hundreds, if not thousands, of concussions 50 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: during his playing days. He spent twenty years in the NFL. 51 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: He was known as an iron Man, once played in 52 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: a record two hundred and ninety nine straight games. 53 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 2: He was testifying in Congress about a company he's invested 54 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: in that was making a concussion drug, and Farv said 55 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: this quote, Sadly, I also lost an investment in a 56 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 2: company that I believe was developing a breakthrough concussion drug 57 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 2: I thought would help others. And I'm sure you'll understand 58 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 2: why it's too late for me, because I've recently been 59 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: diagnosed with Parkinson's. This is also a cause dear to 60 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: my heart, he has. 61 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: For years, though he was in Congress testifying on something 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: completely unrelated here, he has been at the center of 63 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: a controversy in Mississippi, that's his home state, over state 64 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: funds that were meant for the poor being misappropriated and 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: redirected to other causes, including some that Farv advocated for, 66 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: among them a new volleyball facility at the college where 67 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: his daughter plays volleyball. This was tough, came out of nowhere, 68 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: so much talk about CTE and brain injuries for players 69 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: and former players, and to have this guy who's he said, 70 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: the only officially rogues had three or four concussions officially 71 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: diagnosed in his career, he said, did its way beyond that, 72 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: and to hear he has Parkinson's now, So draw some 73 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: new attention to what's been a debate a long time 74 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: about protecting those players. 75 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: Much needed attention, indeed, all right. Next up on our Run, 76 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: Missouri executes a man last night that even the prosecutor's 77 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 2: office believed was innocent. 78 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: We talked about that here yesterday morning on our Run. 79 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: Marcellus Williams is the name convicted for the nineteen ninety 80 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: eight stabbing death of Felicia Gale, but there was never 81 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: any physical evidence that linked him to the crime, and 82 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: he was largely convicted on the testimony of two eyewitnesses 83 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: who his attorneys say were trying to just collect a 84 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars reward. 85 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,239 Speaker 2: The prosecutor's office filed a motion with the court earlier 86 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 2: this year asking that the conviction be vacated and that 87 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 2: Williams beset free, citing new evidence. Despite all of that, 88 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: the Missouri Supreme Court and the governor refused to intervene, 89 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: and just hours before his scheduled execution, the US Supreme 90 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: Court refused to grant a state of execution for him. 91 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,799 Speaker 2: That was his last hope, and he was executed last 92 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 2: night in Missouri. 93 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,679 Speaker 1: But this is a bizarre win to where nobody wanted 94 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: the execution, like nobody the family of the victim even 95 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: said no, we don't want him to be killed. The 96 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: prosecutor's office said this, and we, for whatever reason, our laws, 97 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: our rules, or however it works, we still put a 98 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: man to death. 99 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: You know, it's crazy because it was a it was 100 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: a line in the petition that was filed from the 101 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 2: family that really struck me. And I'll quote it here. 102 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: This is the family the victim. By the way, the 103 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 2: family defines closure as Marcellus being allowed to live. And 104 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: even that last final request from the victim's family was 105 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: not honored by the courts, and Williams lost his life yesterday. 106 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: We want to continue our run now, and the run 107 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: is going to take us back to Washington for something 108 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: we rarely see. I guesses we could almost argue we 109 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: rarely see Congress pass anything. I think sometimes give us 110 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: those updates of how many bills of particular Congress has passed, 111 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: and sometimes that number is a little low, which means 112 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: they're not getting a lot of work done. But they 113 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: passed a bill, that's one thing. But rose they passed 114 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: it unanimously. That's just not something we see every day. 115 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 2: It's remarkable Republicans and Democrats, yes, came together in the 116 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 2: Senate and passed a bill guaranteeing that former President Donald 117 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,239 Speaker 2: Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris received the exact same 118 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 2: level of Secret Service protection as President Joe Biden or 119 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 2: any sitting president. This comes just days after the House 120 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: passed the same bill unanimously as well, four h five 121 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 2: to zero. You don't see those numbers every day, just 122 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: worth mentioning we. 123 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: Are plotting them for getting something done and agree this 124 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: now heads to the President's desk for him to sign. Okay, yes, 125 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: the bill passed, but this doesn't mean everything is all good. 126 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: For the Secret Service, they have been under intense scrutiny 127 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: following two assassination attempts on the former President Trump, the first, 128 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: of course, of that campaign rally in Pennsylvania, where a 129 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: bullet grazed Trump's ear, in the second earlier this month 130 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,799 Speaker 1: at his Palm Beach golf club. 131 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, in Congress is considering an additional two hundred and 132 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: thirty one million dollars for the Secret Service. This is 133 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: all part of its effort to keep the government funded 134 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: ahead of that September thirtieth deadline. So, speaking of that deadline, 135 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: that's going to bring us to the next leg of 136 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 2: our run, where we will stay in Washington, d c. 137 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: And in the halls of Congress. The House expected to 138 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 2: vote on that stop gas stop gap measure to prevent 139 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: the government shut down at the end of the month. 140 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: The House Republicans planned to bring the bipartisan bill up 141 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: for a vote today. We do expect that this is 142 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: the latest attempt of Republicans to get this temporary spending 143 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: bill in place. The House rejected it earlier a different 144 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: type of plan that was in place that had a 145 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: six month funding bill, but it had the Save Act 146 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: attached to it that would require proof of citizenship to 147 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: register to vote. So you see what we're saying there. 148 00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: They had a spending bill in place, but this other 149 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: thing was attached to it, which caused the. 150 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: Problem that was a six month spending gap. Well this one, 151 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 2: the Save Act is out, but the new bill only 152 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: funds the government at current levels for three months, so 153 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 2: it would only protect the government shutdown through December twentieth. 154 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: So yes, that pushes the fight over spending past the 155 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: November presidential election, was it, which that was a huge 156 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: goal affairs, But it does set up a potentially long 157 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: and dramatic week leading up to the holidays if lawmakers 158 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: can't reach another agreement to fund the government into twenty 159 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 2: twenty five. So this is just a temporary measure that 160 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 2: would get us through December twentieth, and the vote is 161 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: expected to take place today. We will keep you updated. 162 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: See what we did there, We just praise them for 163 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: unanimously passing one bill and then we say, oh yeah, 164 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: by the way, they punted on their other responsibility, which 165 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: is due fund the government. Stay with us here. Our 166 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: morning run will contin you Diddy in jail but facing 167 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: a new lawsuit. Stay here. We are back here. We 168 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: continue our morning run with your government suing your credit 169 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: card company. If you have a Visa card in that 170 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: wallet somewhere, or use any Visa networks to make payments, 171 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: and that's pretty much all of us, then the Department 172 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: of Justice says you've been getting hit with higher prices 173 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: because of Visa's monopoly. 174 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: The DOJ is accusing Visa of running a monopoly by 175 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 2: using unsavory tactics to get potential competitors to instead be partners, 176 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 2: putting it in a position to charge higher fees to 177 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: those merchants, who then pass those higher costs onto you. 178 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is staggered. I didn't realize. What's Sixty percent 179 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: of debit transactions in the US are handled through Visa networks, 180 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: which allows Visa to collect seven billion dollars in fees annually. 181 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: All that according to the DOJ. Visa called the DOJ 182 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 1: lawsuit meritless and says they are about to vigorously defend themselves. 183 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 2: All right, more on that one, but in the meantime, 184 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: on the next leg of our run, we're talking Diddy. 185 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: Sean Combs has been sitting in jail for a full 186 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: week now, and it didn't take long. He's been hit 187 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: with a new lawsuit. It was filed yesterday in federal 188 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 2: court by Thalia Graves, who says she was drugged and 189 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 2: raped by Combs at a recording studio in New York 190 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: back in two thousand and one. 191 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: According to the lawsuit, she was given a drink by 192 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: Colmbs's bodyguard that made her lose consciousness, and when she 193 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: woke up, she says her hands were tied behind her back. 194 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: She claimed she was sexually assaulted by Combs and the 195 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: bodyguard did. 196 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: He has pled not guilty to federal charges of racketeering 197 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: and sex trafficking. He was denied bail last week, and 198 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: no word on any reaction from him or his team 199 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 2: on this new lawsuit. 200 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: We're going to continue our run this morning with the 201 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: fallout which has been swift for Maclamore. He is now 202 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: been dropped as a headliner at an upcoming music festival, 203 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: and some of his business partners say they're evaluating their 204 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: options after a viral video of Maclamore made the rounds 205 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: online in recent days and sparked immediate backlash. If you 206 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: have not seen it, what it shows is Maclamore performing 207 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: at a pro Palestinian concert in Seattle when he said 208 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: and I quote, yeah, f America. 209 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 2: He was immediately dragged on social media, and then soon 210 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: after he was dropped as a headliner from an upcoming 211 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: music festival that's taking place in Las Vegas, organizers putting 212 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 2: out a statement that simply said Maclamore will no longer 213 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 2: be performing due to unforeseen circumstances. 214 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: Sounds shortened, sweet works right. 215 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, move on carries a lot of impact. 216 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: But Maclamore is also a partner in the Seattle Kraken 217 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: and Seattle Sounders ownership group that it's the pro hockey 218 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: team and pro soccer team. They're in Seattle. If you 219 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: didn't know, The organization said it was aware of Maclamore's 220 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: quote increasingly divisive comments and said it's now and I 221 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: quote again, evaluating their collective options on this matter. 222 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: I love how just legal and objective all of these 223 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: reactions and comments are. But I'm sure we will be 224 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 2: hearing much more about this next up on the run, 225 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: something we've been talking about a lot over the past 226 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 2: few months. Jordan Chiles. The Summer Olympics wrapped up a 227 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: month and a half ago in Paris, but the competition 228 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: over that bronze medal in the women's floor exercise continues. 229 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 2: Jordan Chiles has filed a second appeal with the highest 230 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 2: court in Switzerland, simply asking that she'd be allowed to 231 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 2: make her case, and her lawyers have now detailed that 232 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: audio and video evidence we've been hearing so much about 233 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: they say they have that proves the metal belongs to Chiles. 234 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: Okay, let's run this back in case you're not upon it, 235 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: We'll give you a little refresher. She Chiles, her score 236 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: on the floor exercise wasn't high enough to put her 237 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: in metal contention, and instead Anna Barboso of Romania got 238 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: third place. Okay, but Chiles asks for an inquiry into 239 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: her score that resulted in her score being revised higher, 240 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: which then put her in third place. She gets the 241 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 1: bronze medal, goes through the ceremony, but Romania protested took 242 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: it to the Court of Sport Arbitration, which ruled that 243 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: Childs didn't get that inquiry in within the required one 244 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: minute time frame, and Robes actually said her inquiry came 245 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: in four seconds late, so the bronze went back to 246 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: the young lady from Romania. 247 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 2: With this new appeal, Chile says, Nah, there is a 248 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: video that was shot by a documentary crew who happened 249 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 2: to be there right at the floor exercise that absolutely, 250 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 2: unequivocally proves Chile's injury inquiry came at forty seven seconds, 251 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: and then they actually put in another one at fifty 252 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: five seconds, both beating that one minute clock. So if 253 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: there's video proof, why wouldn't the court consider that? The 254 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 2: Court of Arbitration refuse to reconsider the new evidence, and 255 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 2: that's why Chiles now has taken her case to the 256 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 2: Supreme Court of Switzerland. 257 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: Okay, this is not actually expected to wrap up that quickly. 258 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: This could even take months for a ruling, and this court, 259 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: this Supreme Court, is going to either send the case 260 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: back to the Court of Arbitration, so even if we 261 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: hear from them in a couple of months, they might 262 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: send it back to a court who might take some 263 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: more time again, or the Supreme Court is simply gonna 264 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: uphold that lower courts that other court's decision and that 265 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: will end up being the end of it. I cannot 266 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: believe we're still talking with this. 267 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 2: Tell you just love the legal system, not just in 268 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: this country but around the world. Apparently it's the same everywhere. 269 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: Confusing and time consuming. 270 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: We need to note here where's that metal? It is 271 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: around the neck of that Romanian. She did have a 272 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: ceremony in which it was reallocated that bronze medal. So 273 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: she has now gone through insane and kissed it and 274 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: had the pictures biting them doing that whole thing. So 275 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: you're telling me, y'all possibly gonna go back and take 276 00:14:58,800 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: it off her. 277 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 2: Nove both the bronze medal. That is what so many 278 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: people have said solves all of this. How much money 279 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 2: is being spent arbitrating this as well? I mean, this 280 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 2: is to me, this is silly. Give both the women 281 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 2: bronze medals, and they both agreed that that would be appropriate. 282 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: Everyone agrees, this is what we talk about. Both sides 283 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 2: say hey, here's the solution, and yet we're at the 284 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: Supreme Court of Switzerland. 285 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: We said that the day after right here on this podcast, 286 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: and we were covering the Olympics every day, just killing 287 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: the boat. This is done just because they're all okay 288 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: with it. Yes, we're both okay with it. 289 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 2: No that, oh my goodness. 290 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: All right. 291 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 2: We move on to talk about more Olympic medals, This 292 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: one a gold medal. An interesting tactic by a former 293 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 2: olympian who is desperate to recover his stolen gold medal. 294 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: He's offering to let the thief have it. 295 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: Okay, let us explain this. We're talking about a Hungarian fencer, 296 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: Laslow sung Grotti who he won his prized possession back 297 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty eight at the Soul Olympics, but two 298 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: weeks ago it was stolen from his home during a burglary. Now, 299 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: Songrotti is now pleading with the thief to return it, 300 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: and in exchange robes, he has promised to leave the 301 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: thief the metal in his will. 302 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 2: Wow, Songratti said, I want him to return the worthless 303 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 2: object that means nothing to him. Drop it in the 304 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 2: mailbox and if you want, I won't leave it to 305 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 2: a museum in my will, I will bequeath it to him. 306 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: This is just sad. I feel awful for the guy. 307 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 2: I mean, this is something that it's his. Like you said, 308 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: Price possession. It was hard earned. It's something he loves 309 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 2: and wants it with him, and it's just disgusting that 310 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: someone would steal that to Ponnt for what. 311 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't even know what you could get for a 312 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: gold medal in fencing from nineteen eighty eight. It obviously 313 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: is not that kind of value, and it's certainly not 314 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: sentimental value to the thief. It's got sixty five I 315 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: don't know what his life has been and what he's doing, 316 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: but he kept it in like a cupboard, right. It 317 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: was just kind of there and it was special to him, 318 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: and it just it meant so much to him in 319 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 1: a probably the highlight of his life, and to be 320 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: willing to do I'll give it to you.
