Speaker 1: over now and bring on Steve Gregory, who of course

20
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: has been covering that tragedy out of Riverside that unfolded

21
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: last Friday when police were called to a street there

22
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: in Riverside and eventually they discovered a house on fire

23
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: and then three bodies inside. And the original call was

24
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: made by a neighbor who said he saw a young

25
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: girl and I guess an older man arguing and by

26
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: the time the police got there, they were gone. But

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: we've now found out that that man is Austin Lee Edwards,

28
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: twenty eight years old, who was posing as a seventeen

29
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: year old online to get this fifteen year old girl

30
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: to go with him. Steve, Yeah, guys, And the latest

31
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: information now from the San Bernardino County Corners office is

32
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: at Austin Lee Edwards shot himself, killed himself out. That

33
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: just came out a little bit ago. We were told

34
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: early on in the investigation that first he was shot

35
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: by a long rifle from someone in one of the helicopters,

36
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: and then that was amended to that was possibly a

37
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 1: member of the swat team, and then that was amended

38
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: to well, they're not really sure yet if he died

39
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: at the hands of a deputy or died at the

40
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: hand of himself. And then the corner just released that

41
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: information about thirty five forty This happened Friday, I mean

42
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 1: today is Wednesday. How could that takes so long to Well,

43
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: they're also dealing with the three dead bodies they had.

44
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: Did they shoot at him or they saying that they

45
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: shot had him. There was a shootout, that was the

46
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: way I was characterized. There was a shootout and he

47
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: did engage and that's what led That's what led into

48
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: the shootout. But you know, they're still figuring out the

49
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: cause and manner of death for each of the three

50
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: that were left dead inside the house that Austin Lee

51
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: Edwards lit on fire. We're talking about Mark and Sheree Winnick,

52
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: who were the parents of Brookewinnock, who was also killed,

53
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: and the grandparents of the fifteen year old girl that

54
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: was catfished by Edwards. So they're still saying that they

55
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: didn't burn to death in the fire. They were killed

56
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 1: in another manner. They were killed in another manner. And

57
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: as we updated on your show on Friday afternoon I'm sorry,

58
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: not a Friday afternoon. On Monday, we updated that they

59
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: were not killed by gunfire, that they were killed in

60
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: another manner, but the actually described as brutal, and it

61
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: was a disturbing scene. And it's not clear whether the

62
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: fifteen year old girl actually witnessed the murders, where she

63
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: was actually located when they died. Those are things that

64
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: we hope to find out very soon. But the small

65
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: Riverside Police had a press conference and they also introduced

66
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 1: other members of the family that we have heard from

67
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: now for the first time. The first one is Michelle

68
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: land and As She as the sister of Brooke Winnick

69
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: who was killed, and the aunt of the fifteen year

70
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: old girl who was catfished, and she talked about how

71
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: overwhelming the support has been and that quite frankly, she

72
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 1: and the rest of her family are just ordinary people.

73
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 1: We had a family debate and it got heated on

74
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: if the brownies my mom made should be frosted with

75
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: sprinkles or just left plane. It seems silly at the time,

76
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,239
Speaker 1: but that's a conversation and a debate that will forever

77
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: resonate in my heart. Little did I know on that

78
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: day that would be the last time that my husband

79
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: and I would see my parents and my sister er again.

80
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: The Riverside police Chief Larry Gonzalez gave a little more

81
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: detail about this catfishing And for those that don't know,

82
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: catfishing is when someone goes online regardless of the platform,

83
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: and poses as somebody else to lure people in, whether

84
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: that be for financial or fraudulent means or in this case,

85
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: for sexual means or sex stortion. And this is a

86
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: Chief Gonzalez explaining a little bit more about the catfishing

87
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: component to this case. We believe the suspect, as you

88
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: heard before, was engaging on an online enticement called catfishing.

89
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: It appears that the suspect met the victim online through

90
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 1: a common form of enticement called catfishing, where he believed

91
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: where we believe he portrayed himself as a teenager to

92
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,239
Speaker 1: develop an online relationship with her. This is a broad

93
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: category of online exploitation that includes sex stortion, in which

94
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: a child is being groomed to take sexually explicit images

95
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: and or ultimately meet face to face with someone for

96
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: sexual purposes, or to engage in a sexual conversation online,

97
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: or in some instances, sell or trade the child's sexual images.

98
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 1: This type of victimization takes place across every platform social media,

99
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: messaging apps, gaming platforms, etc. And the chief did confirm

100
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: today that that was the case in this particular situation.

101
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 1: They're not sure to the extent of how many photos

102
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: or what kind of sexual content there was between the

103
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 1: fifteen year old girl and the twenty eight year old

104
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: man who was posing as a seventeen year old boy.

105
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: I asked the question is whether or not he came

106
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: out on his own or had he been invited. The

107
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: Chief wouldn't answer that question. They said it was too

108
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 1: early to tell. But one of the biggest pieces to

109
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: this puzzle is this fifteen year old girl, because she's

110
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: still in protective custody. Now, a lot of people have

111
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: kind of had like, well, why is she still in

112
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: protective custody? Why isn't she with her family? Well, there

113
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: are two big reasons to that, and I want to

114
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: play for you a little bit now. Alison Saros, and

115
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: she's not only a family friend, but she was a

116
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: former deputy DA with La County Sheriff's District Attorney's office.

117
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: And she also she said she gave up her life

118
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: as a prosecutor to work with kids of trauma and

119
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: people that have been victims of these sex stortion cases

120
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I asked her what kind of

121
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: a journey this fifteen year old girl has ahead of her.

122
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: Unfortunately I don't know, but I do know that she's

123
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: currently undergoing trauma counseling. I don't know what other medical

124
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: care she's undergoing. She's going to have a long road ahead,

125
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: and it's going to take years to try to help

126
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: give her the confidence in order to adjust to the

127
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: events that transpired. But unfortunately, it's just a wait and

128
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: see situation. And one of the investigators that I spoke

129
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: with said that one of the reasons they're keeping her

130
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: isolated is they still have not finished their interview of her.

131
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: They've only been able to talk to her maybe once.

132
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: And because of just the guilt, the trauma and everything

133
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: she's experiencing right now, she's to no condition to lay

134
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: out the chain of events, the timeline. She is the

135
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: only remaining witness in all of this. Do we know

136
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: of any of the family members? I mean they passed away,

137
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: but did they know she was communicating with somebody online?

138
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: And again, those are all questions that we've asked, and

139
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: presumably we might get the answers once they get the

140
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: warrants served to go through her devices laptop, desktop, phone,

141
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: and his devices, and that might be able to clear

142
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: up some of these kind of gaps and voids that

143
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: we have in this timeline. And here's the interesting thing.

144
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: So the question had been asked, well, how long had

145
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: this been going on because this is typically catfishing, like

146
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: this is a kind of a long game. And I

147
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: was speaking speaking with Pete Hih, a sergeant over at

148
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: La County Cybercrimes, and he said this, you know, they groom,

149
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: they go on there and they take their time. They're

150
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: in it for the long game. And so presumably this

151
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: relationship had gone on for a while. But when we

152
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: asked the question, like, we're really not sure. But when

153
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: we asked the question, you could hear it in the

154
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: mic where an officer leans over to the chief and says,

155
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: it's been going on for months. It's been going on

156
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 1: for months. You can hear that. But then the official

157
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: answer was we're not really sure, but yeah, so there

158
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: has been a conversation going on for some time. There's

159
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: also this red herring where a neighbor claims to have

160
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: seen the car a couple weeks ago in the area.

161
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: The chief said there was no evidence that that was

162
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: his vehicle necessarily. So, as you guys know, there's a

163
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: lot of different moving parts to this, and we're going

164
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: to have to wait to see how this girl's testimony

165
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: is going to play into it and what they get

166
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: forensically from the digital aspect. When you say she's in

167
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: protective custody, what does that mean? Who? Well, who's she

168
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: sharing for her right now? Where is she located? Riverside

169
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: County Family Services, Child Family Services? And I believe she's

170
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: with a foster like foster parents. So she's getting the

171
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: care she needs, you know, the vital care she needs,

172
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 1: but they're also concerned about the trauma that she's gone through,

173
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: so she's also getting mental health services, any other medical

174
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: services she needs. I would think somebody would have to

175
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: be with her twenty four hours a day. Yeah, well,

176
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: absolutely no, that's that's the protective part of that. But

177
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: they're keeping her from the family, and they did say

178
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: the family will eventually become part of her therapy, but

179
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: for the time being, they need to keep her isolated.

180
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of that has to do

181
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: with not only getting her stable and comfortable, but they

182
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: also have to make sure. They it's like any witness,

183
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to talk to her without any outside influences.

184
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: All right, Steve, thank you very much. It's Steve Gregor

185
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 1: recovering the tragedy out on Riverside where a woman and

186
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: her parents were murdered by a man who came to

187
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 1: take that woman's daughter, a teenage girl who had been

188
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: communicating with online hosting as a seventeen year old. This

189
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: was a Virginia police officer. More coming up, John and

190
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: Ken kf I Am six forty Live everywhere on the

191
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app. Oh. What are the stories making big news today?

192
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: Is the continued drama between the railroad companies and the unions.

193
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: This has been going on for quite some time. The

194
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: latest chapter is that the unions threatened to strike if

195
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 1: they cannot reach an agreement before December ninth deadline. Now,

196
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: there was an agreement brokered by the Biden people back

197
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: in September, but it got voted down by four of

198
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: the twelve unions that represent more than one hundred thousand

199
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: employees at these large freight rail carriers, including the largest union.

200
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: This could disrupt the supply chain even further if they

201
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: went on strike what is really bizarre about this story.

202
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 1: Let me begin with what was in the agreement. The

203
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: compromise twenty four percent raises five thousand dollars in bonuses

204
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 1: retroactive to twenty twenty one, additional paid leave day. Most

205
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: of the unions said will take that, four of them

206
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: did not. And the big sticking point is sick days.

207
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: They want more sick days. It just sounds bizarre to

208
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: they have a difficult time. I've been listening over the

209
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: months to various factions trying to well, because you had

210
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: the union leaders, and then you have the union workers, right,

211
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: and it seems a lot of the union workers are

212
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: not happy with the leaders. Then you have the railway

213
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: officials management, and then you have the politicians and the

214
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: Biden administration, and everybody's got a different spin on this.

215
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: It seems that there are little to no sick days

216
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: available up to this point, and to get a sick

217
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: day requires a lot of advanced notice, and the workers

218
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: just aren't right practical terms, they're not. They're not they're

219
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: not allowed to be sick. You can't give advanced notice

220
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: of when you're going to be sick. They don't know that,

221
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: and they were complaining that guys were coming in with COVID,

222
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: and COVID was spreading because a lot of these jobs

223
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: you work close together for some reason, as generous as

224
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,599
Speaker 1: the pay raise and the bonus seems to be. The

225
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: hard line from railroad management is over the sick days,

226
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: and I don't know why. Now they're getting there. They

227
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: passed a bill in the House to force the compromise negotiation,

228
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: to force it to become law. Everyone's got to abide

229
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 1: by it, right, and it got a lot of Democrats

230
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: and Republicans in the Senate. There is pushback from everyone

231
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: from Bernie Sanders to a bunch of right wing Republicans.

232
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is trying to mandate that there's at least

233
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 1: seven sick days, which doesn't seem like an overwhelming number

234
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: to me, but he wants to put into the bill

235
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: just seven. And the Republicans don't I forgot what their

236
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: objection is, or they want to embarrass Biden. Yeah, that's

237
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: what they were claiming about. It's like Congress really shouldn't

238
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 1: be involved in this. This is really a private matter

239
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: between the union and the railway companies. What are we

240
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: doing dictating work terms and getting down into the minutia.

241
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: It's like, let them figure this out. At the same time,

242
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: everybody agrees we can't afford a rail strike because that

243
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: would be a complete disaster for obvious reasons. So what

244
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: happened today was the House of Representatives voted to impose

245
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: on the unions for now that compromise agreement reached in September. However,

246
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: when the vote is pretty overwhelming two nine thirty seven,

247
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: and of course the House, which will change composition soon

248
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: is controlled by the Democrats, but over Republicans voted also

249
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: to try to prevent this strike from happening. It's now

250
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: being taken up in the Senate, where John just mentioned,

251
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: there's a move to add seven sick days to the

252
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: House also passed a resolution supporting sick days. But I

253
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: noticed that if the word resolution was used, which usually

254
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: means nothing, it just means we support you in some

255
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: vague way. It's the strangest thing. And I've never heard

256
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: the railway companies explain, or anybody explained for them, why

257
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: it is so burdensome to give sick time to the employees.

258
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: Why is this such such such an issue. I mean,

259
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: they're obviously willing to spend the money on the raises

260
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: and the bonuses, and it doesn't seem like the railway

261
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: workers are upset with that deal. Allegedly they're raking in

262
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: big profits too. Yes, you know, I heard one union

263
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: officials say that their profits over the last twenty years

264
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: or so have gone up like six hundred and seventy

265
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: four percent. So there's no lack of money and there's

266
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: no lack of money being shared with the workers. It's

267
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: every single story seems to come back to the sick

268
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: days and used to be that they had next to

269
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: nothing and that they couldn't they couldn't live with the

270
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: tight restrictions, the notice that they had to give. Oh

271
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: there was a limit on how many people could get

272
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: sick days on any given day. It's just the oddest thing.

273
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: And I keep thinking of I'm missing something, you know,

274
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: and I can't get a handle on this, and nobody

275
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: seems to explain it. Nobody explains the rail company's position

276
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: on sick days. No, I'm sure the rail companies, if

277
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: they got on I would say, oh, they would fill

278
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: a buster about how generous they are. I mean, sick

279
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: days seem to be obvious. I mean, this is not

280
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: eighteen eighty six anymore. Yeah, maybe they just felt that

281
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: too many workers are taking advantage of it. I don't know. Well,

282
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: that's why you have a limit, you know, because we know,

283
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: we know people are slobs, and if you give them

284
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: unlimited sick days, you know, there's just limits. But but

285
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: people take advantage of a limit, even if it's ten days.

286
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: That just seems outrageous if they're just ripping you off

287
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: for the time off. I think I heard one union

288
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: officials say that eighty six percent of private sector workers

289
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: get sick days. That we're not being unreasonable here. Rail

290
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: carriers say workers can attend to illnesses or medical appointments

291
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: using their paid vacation time. That was kind of their response.

292
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I they're admitting they don't want to

293
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 1: give separate sick days. I guess they're not. They're dead

294
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: all right, We got more coming up, John and Ken

295
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 1: KF I am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. So,

296
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: the rail workers get three days a year, they can

297
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: schedule medical appointments, and they will get one extra day

298
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: of paid personal leave, but there is no paid sick leave,

299
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 1: which is you know, when you suddenly get sick and

300
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: have to call in right away. You have to say

301
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: with COVID right, you have to schedule these the medical

302
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: appointments in advance and apply to get those days off.

303
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: And is that weird? I just can't think of any

304
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: other line of work, especially unions. And it's over one

305
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: hundred thousand employees and no paid sick leave. It's weird.

306
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,360
Speaker 1: Little sympathy for the employees this time, huh. I think

307
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: that's unreasonable. Hey, the Moist line it's coming back day

308
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: after tomorrow. We've been told there's plenty of openings. Get

309
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: in there, leave a message. He was the iHeartRadio app

310
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 1: using the microphone icon, or a course called the old

311
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: toll free number one eight seven seven Moist eighty six

312
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: one eight seven seven six six four seven eighty eight six.

313
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 1: I'll be talking to Alex Stone, ABC News for KFI,

314
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: who has kept a close eye on that Idaho story.

315
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: Four college students murdered in their off campus home. Three

316
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 1: of them lived there, the other was a male who

317
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: was with his girlfriend. And he's got an update on

318
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: the story. Police for viewed or at least a few

319
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 1: things today. Also, there was interest in a man who

320
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: lives nearby that has described as socially awkward. Apparently the

321
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: online detectives somehow track this man down and I guess

322
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: his habits and said he needs looking into. The police

323
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: did interview and will play a bit of an interview

324
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: that he did. These these online detectives are really a

325
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: bunch of a holes. This guy went on a court

326
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: TV to actually, I mean they didn't kill them. They

327
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: do this in a lot of cases. They start asking

328
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: all those stupid conspiracy questions. It's like, gee, I don't

329
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: it looks like he was wearing a black shirt. Why

330
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: would he wear a black shirt? And Alex will talk

331
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: about this prosecutor named Bill Thompson, who does have like

332
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: a homeless beard growing on. They're kind of a weird

333
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: looking guy. That made an odd statement. Well, you know what.

334
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: Originally news came out that this was a targeted murder. Well,

335
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: when weren't talking about the people, We're talking about the house? Huh? Yeah,

336
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: whoever did this targeted the house? Not necessarily the people inside.

337
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: I think the local police and investigators are bunch of boobs. Boobs,

338
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: I do. I think they're total boobs. They can't they

339
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: can't perform, they don't have what it takes. They have

340
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: the experience. How we moved to the training for this,

341
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 1: we moved to San Francisco. This is a good one.

342
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: Of all the places you think you'd hear this story,

343
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't be San Francisco. The Board of Supervisors has approved

344
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: a RoboCop. Yeah, police robots armed with explosives to use

345
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: that force as a last resort option. They will not

346
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,719
Speaker 1: have guns the robots, but they will have explosive devices.

347
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: The board voted eight to three in favor of this.

348
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: The proposal was made by police officials. A similar idea

349
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: was defeated in Oakland recently, but the San Francisco Police

350
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: Department said they would not be arming the robots in Oakland,

351
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: they did want to have them with live shotgun rounds.

352
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 1: Do we have to San Francisco? Is this widespread, this

353
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: robot thing? I don't think we have this in LA

354
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a question for Steve. But San

355
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: Francisco is leading the killer robot trend. God don't ask me.

356
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: I The scenario that they described where this would be

357
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: used would be to stop somebody like a suicide bomber

358
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: or somebody which is in a really dangerous situation. And

359
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: we have exhausted all other options confronting a suicide bomber

360
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: is what San Francisco p D Assistant Chief David Lazar indicated.

361
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 1: He also said, remember the twenty seventeen Las Vegas shooting

362
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: where it was impossible for a while for police to

363
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 1: get into that hotel room and stop that man who

364
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 1: was shooting at people from the hotel window. You could

365
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: send a robot in there to blast the door and

366
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: then blow up the guy. They use it on all

367
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:17,479
Speaker 1: the car thieves. They blow up the cars. No, the thieves,

368
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: the thieves. Of course, one supervisor said, wait a minute,

369
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: were talking about a sniper in a fully occupied hotel,

370
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: and the solution is to put a bomb bearing robot. Well,

371
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: first of all, that's kind of a silly question. You

372
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: clear out the hotel, right, who was not You wouldn't

373
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: send the robot in there immediately to blow up the hotel.

374
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: And I don't think the device would blow up the

375
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: whole hotel. But you see, I mean a couple of

376
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: these You can imagine these supervisors in San Francisco, because

377
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: one of the other one, the supportive ones, said you're

378
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 1: just anti police. You don't like anything that the police

379
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: come up you could, you could tell the quality of

380
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: the argument is so poor. Yeah, you're right, you'd clear

381
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: out the building first, of course you will, so. But

382
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. When you hear like a cheap

383
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: response like that, you know you're with a moron who

384
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: doesn't have any other better argument. Exactly, they don't have

385
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 1: a better argument. I just wonder, you know, once they

386
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: have this robot, what else they're going to use it on?

387
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: Because I think this, I think things have gotten so

388
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: bad in San Francisco that a lot of people are

389
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: doing a flip and and and they're ready to embrace

390
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 1: this sort of thing now. San Francisco is also still

391
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: debating another story from months ago, the one point seven

392
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: million dollar public bathroom. No one can quite figure this out.

393
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: Supervisor mRNA Melgar is determined to get to the bottom,

394
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: especially as to how the city came up with nearly

395
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: a half a million dollars in architectural and engineering fees

396
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: for an outdoor public toilet's one hundred and fifty square feet.

397
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: Does that give you an idea about this boob culture?

398
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: You know, how many employees must have been in on

399
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: this and to agree that it is cool to spend

400
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: a million seven. I mean it must be dozens of

401
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: employees that were on this project or where of this project,

402
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: and nobody said, are you all nuts? Nobody said that.

403
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: One of the idiot assembly members from that area, Matt Haney,

404
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: was actually going to have a grand opening party for

405
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 1: the near two million dollar bathroom, but he canceled it

406
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: when the story went big public. We were all paid,

407
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,439
Speaker 1: and even Newsom said, I'm not going to give you

408
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 1: a state money for that. Right, there was state tax money,

409
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: so we were gonna pay for a toilet that was

410
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: going to cost nearly two million dollars. By the way,

411
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: one point seven is what this estimate was. You know,

412
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: it was going to be over two million by the

413
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: time by the time it was done. Well, this was

414
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: a single toilet, only one hundred and fifty square feet.

415
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: It's not like building a house or a mansion. Hopefully

416
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 1: it's not going to take a long time to put

417
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: together a one hundred and fifty square foot toilet. Well,

418
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: then how did he get to one seven? Though? No,

419
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: but I'm saying it might not go up and call

420
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: because it's already done. Deal. It takes nothing to build.

421
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: You have not like, oh we ran into electrical problems

422
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: or plumbing problems. Maybe you have more faith than I do.

423
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: They spent three hundred thousand dollars on architects and engineers,

424
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: forty thousand dollars to verify existing existing conditions, thirty thousand

425
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: for a consultant to estimate the cost of the project.

426
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: They spent thirty thousand dollars on a guy Jess to

427
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: estimate the cost and then add another thirty grand to it. Yeah,

428
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: seventy four. Here we go seventy five thousand dollars seventy

429
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: five in reserves just in case the costs go up.

430
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I I this came from the Wreck

431
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: and Park Department. The Department Public Work says that they

432
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 1: were not given the details of this. Why don't budget

433
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: break down? Why don't they tell us who's getting paid off?

434
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: Because there has to be multiple politically connected companies who

435
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: were giving outrageous bids to get the business, and we're

436
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: getting those bids approved because of who they were and

437
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: who they know. So this is an example of massive corruption.

438
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: This is guys greasing their buddies. So who is the grease, sir,

439
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: and who is the greasy I don't know even cited

440
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 1: La skid Row, which has brought out seven toilets which

441
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: retail for one hundred and thirty five thousand dollars. The

442
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: comment was, well, if they're sturdy enough for skid Row,

443
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: why couldn't we have something like that? Well, this location,

444
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: this is what all these idiot journalists they always missed

445
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: the boat, right, and so does everyone else comments publicly,

446
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: everybody goes, I don't understand how could it possibly cost

447
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: so much. I mean, I got a bathroom in my

448
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 1: home and it didn't cost two million dollars. It's like,

449
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 1: it's because it's corruption. It's because it's bribery. That's what

450
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: it is. And then the politicians who proved this stuff

451
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 1: get a kick back from the contractor who won the

452
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: contract to build the toilet. That's how it works. How

453
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: does this work without corruption, without bribery, without people getting

454
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: their cut? Give me a piece, I want to cut

455
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 1: of that. That's what it is. It's always been that

456
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: way for hundreds of years, a million years. All right,

457
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: we will return Johnny ken caf I AM six forty

458
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. Well. Of course, people

459
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: have been obsessed with the Idaho student murders. Will talk

460
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: about that with Alex Stone, ABC News for KFI at

461
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 1: four oh five, we'll play at the bizarre story of

462
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: a man that doesn't live far from the house where

463
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 1: the four college students were killed, but online people pointed

464
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 1: him out as a possible suspect because he's socially awkward.

465
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: One profiler says, this could be the work of an

466
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: in cell somebody who's involuntarily celibate, a man that gets

467
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: pretty worked up and might have been worked up over

468
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: these young women. And in one case there was a male,

469
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: a boyfriend who was also murdered. So we'll talk about

470
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: all this in the four o'clock hour. Well, what's going on, John? Now?

471
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: Is finally the end almost of the Harvey Weinstein trial.

472
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: You know, the prosecution spent a month and put forty

473
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,199
Speaker 1: four witnesses on the stand. The defense was done in

474
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: two days six witnesses. So what some defense teams do

475
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: is say, well, we're not here to present the case.

476
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 1: The prosecution has to prove that our client is guilty

477
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: beyond a reasonable doubt. All we have to do is

478
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: take their witnesses and pick at them to give our defense.

479
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: It's hard to prove you didn't do something, or that

480
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: the actor was consensual. And that's the scary thing for

481
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: any guy who's dating somebody that or having a one

482
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: night stand with somebody they don't know well, is as

483
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: soon as she leaves the room, she can say anything

484
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: and what are you going to do? Right, which is

485
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: why you shouldn't do that. Then they called a couple

486
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: of witnesses to try to poke holes in some of

487
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: the Jane Doe testimonies, not Newsom's wife, though this was

488
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: about Jane Doe's number one and two in the case.

489
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: And right now as we speak, the supposedly in closing arguments,

490
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: this case will probably be with the jury by the

491
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: end of the week. I'd be surprised if he's not

492
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: found guilty. He was found guilty in New York. I

493
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 1: heman HEARDing in this trial that does found guilty because

494
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: he was found guilty of everything else in New York.

495
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's making this stuff up. Yeah, now

496
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: we revisit a story that we talked about actually in

497
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, and like a lot of these stories, it

498
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: can only come from a place like Florida. A former

499
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: Florida State fraternity member by the name of Austin Haruf

500
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: apparently went nuts. One night. He walked into the garage

501
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: of a home and he hacked to death a man

502
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: by the name of John Stevens and his wife with

503
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: a machette. The police found Haruf kneeling over the husband,

504
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: John Stephens and gnawing on his face, noting in particular

505
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: that he spit out pieces of flesh. Before they could

506
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 1: take him into custody, he kills the couple and starts

507
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: eating the husband's face. Yeah, this what's going on in Florida.

508
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: Remember years ago the homeless guy got eaten. Yes, that

509
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: was bath salts. Bath salts made somebody crazy and he

510
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: was he was eating somebody on the streets. I remember, Yeah.

511
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: I think it was like I got a bridge, yeah,

512
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: freeway over pass or a bridge. Yeah. Yeah. He attacked

513
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: a homeless man and began to consume his face. Florida.

514
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: At these crazed drug addicts, they eat people out in

515
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: public because they're so whacked out on whatever their drug is. Well,

516
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: we have learned in the case that apparently he's been

517
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: deemed not guilty by reason of insanity, which means he

518
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: could be released someday. So he hacks somebody up with

519
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: a machete, eats their face, and he's going to get out, Yeah,

520
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: because they've decided he's crazy. Well, no kidding, he's crazy.

521
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: He was eating the guy. He is He's going to

522
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: be sent to a mental hospital, not a jail, and

523
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: the day may come where they will release him if

524
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: they determined he's not a threat to other people anymore,

525
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: when he's not so hungry anymore. His father, who's a dentist,

526
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 1: asserted that his son was mentally ill at the time

527
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: and his attorneys went for a not guilty plea. That

528
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: that is a huge flaw in the system here. It

529
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 1: shouldn't matter what the state of your brain is. We

530
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: could argue all day long about levels of mental illness

531
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: and evil and drug induced insanity and all that. Well,

532
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. You just look at the actions. He

533
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: murdered a guy and that ate his face. This was

534
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: which is why family members are upset because they wanted

535
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: to trial. One sister of the victim said, I really

536
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,959
Speaker 1: don't know how he could brutally murder two people, attempt

537
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: to kill another and not even have a trial. You

538
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: want to hear his habits, haroof roof drank heavily and

539
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: took cocaine, prescription pills, mushrooms, meth amphetamines, codine, adderall and heroin,

540
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: but FBI toxicology results so no signs of drugs in

541
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: his system. After the crime. I wonder though, if he'd

542
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: been taking drugs a long time and Friday's brain. His

543
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: three doctors said they had a severe psychotic break. Eventually,

544
00:32:55,560 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: you do damage when you're taken enough drugs, right, yeah,

545
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: you give yourself brain damage. Yeah. In the days before

546
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: the crime, he wrote to a friend of his desire

547
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: for fame, Why the bleep, just not do what you want?

548
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: Just do the craziest bleep you can. I just want

549
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: to be great before I die. In another message, he

550
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: wondered if he was insane. I thought I was crazy,

551
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: but really not. I just know that for me personally,

552
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: the drugs are taking a toll on me and I

553
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: can't handle now. You're right, it just fried his brain

554
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: to the point where he had a psychotic break. Right,

555
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: what's this dad going around trying to save his sorry ass?

556
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: Mute man. I mean, I understand people's natural inclination to

557
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: protect your children and stand up for them and defend him,

558
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: but he killed the guy at ate him, I mean

559
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: as I mean even Jeffrey Dahmer's dad drew the line

560
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: at that. The father brought him, bought him the knife

561
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: he used in the killings at a gun show the

562
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: day before the crime. Yeah, there you go. It's it's like,

563
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: who's the last killer? Whose whose mom was the Colorado

564
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: Springs Colorado Springs guy, Yeah, he and his mom. Non

565
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: binary guy Austin whatever. Yeah, the alleged non binary guy.

566
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: All right. Coming up next, we'll be joined by Alex Stone,
