00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,520

00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: his home and posted the video online as she accuses

00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: him of sexual assault. The delivery driver, Olivia Henderson, was

Speaker 1: surveillance and first degree dissemination of an unlawful surveillance image.

8
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: Henderson was released on bond. She must appear in court

9
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: December fourth. Police and Oswego made the arrest. The incident

10
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: happened October twelfth. Henderson, a twenty three, was dropping off

11
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: a door Dash order at an Oswego home. She shared

12
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 1: a video on TikTok after the delivery showing a male customer.

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: She recorded him without his consent and then subsequently disseminated

14
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: those videos. That's Oswego Police Captain Brian Thompson. Police reports

15
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: say the customer was unclothed and unconscious. Henderson claimed she

16
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: was a victim of sexd xtual assault during this delivery.

17
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: She contacted police about the incident.

18
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 2: I reported it to DoorDash and DoorDash did ban the customer,

19
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 2: and then two days later DoorDash banned me, which doesn't

20
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: seem unrelated. They didn't even provide me a reason for

21
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: my deactivation. They're supposed to send an email, they didn't.

22
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: That's Henderson on her TikTok page. Police began an investigation

23
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: on October thirteenth. Police have stated they found no proof

24
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 1: that a sexual assault happened to miss Henderson. They say

25
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: the man in the video was quote incapacitated and unconscious

26
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: because of drinking too much. The man has worked with investigators.

27
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: Henderson says she's fighting for at least one form of justice,

28
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: like this.

29
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: Is the only justice I'm getting is exposing this man

30
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: and having posted that video and it has gone viral.

31
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 2: Now he can live with shame and embarrassment if people

32
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: have seen it and knows who he is or where

33
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 2: he you know what I'm saying, Like I'm the one

34
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: being punished.

35
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: Henderson posted several videos claiming the customer showed himself without

36
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: her wish.

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: They were sleeping on the couch within eyesight of the

38
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: front door, with their pants and underwear pulled down to

39
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: their ankles, and they were indec and the exposed to me.

40
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: Some reports suggested that the video was taken from the

41
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: exterior of the residents, while other reports say a ring

42
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: camera showed miss Henderson walking into the man's home herself.

43
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 1: Door Dash gave a statement they confirmed they had deactivated

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: a Dasher's account for posting nude photos of a customer.

45
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: They stressed that they support drivers who report sexual assault,

46
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: and they said that posting the video was the only

47
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: reason they ended Henderson's employment. More crime and justice news

48
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: after this. A small Missouri city will pay half a

49
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: million dollars to settle a lawsuit after a blind and

50
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: deaf shitzoo dog was shot by a police officer in

51
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: a case that set off a year of anger and

52
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: forced two officials out of their jobs. The city is Sturgeon,

53
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 1: The owner is Nicholas Hunter. The officer who fired the

54
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: shot is named in records as Myron Woodson. Hunter will

55
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: receive two hundred eighty two thousand, five hundred dollars. His

56
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: lawyers received two hundred and seventeen thousand, five hundred dollar.

57
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: The Animal Legal Defense Fund helped fund the legal fight.

58
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: ALDF called the deal one of the largest of its kind.

59
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: They said these deaths can be stopped with simple training,

60
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: and they say the size of the settlement shows that

61
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: pets matter and police rules need to keep pace. The

62
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: shooting took place on May nineteenth of twenty twenty four.

63
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: Hunter said he was eating dinner when Teddy slipped out

64
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: of his fence yard and wandered into a neighbor's yard.

65
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: Police and Sturgeon also do animal control, so the neighbor

66
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: called for help. Woodson responded. Body camera video shows him

67
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: make several tries to catch Teddy with a snare as

68
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: the small dog moved through a large field. After about

69
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: three minutes, he gave up and shot the dog at

70
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: close range. The Animal Legal Defense Fund said Sturgeon never

71
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: trained Woodson to handle dogs, never taught him to use

72
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: the catch poll, and never told him about the city's

73
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: agreement with Boone County for animal control. They also said

74
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: city leaders defended Woodson in two Facebook posts after the

75
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: shooting without seeing the bodycam video. They said the promised

76
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: review never took place. Teddy weighed thirteen pounds, he did

77
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: not charge at the officer. Video shows the blind and

78
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: deaf dog did not pose any threat. The city first

79
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: sat in a Facebook post that Woodson feared Teddy was rabid.

80
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: Later video showed Woodson telling Hunter he thought Teddy was astray.

81
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: Woodson later said in an affidavit, quote, I believed that

82
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: the dog was seriously injured and suffering. At first, Mayor

83
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: Kevin Abrabson defended Woodson, but later he resigned. Woodson quit

84
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: the force and now works as a process server. Federal

85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: agents say a New Jersey man pushed the thirteen year

86
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: old girl to cut herself live on camera and threatened

87
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: to dox her family if she did not obey him.

88
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: The FBI arrested twenty one year old Marek cher Cowie

89
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: at his home in Egg Harbor Township on Friday. He's

90
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: now being held without bond on a federal cyberstocking charge.

91
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: The complaint says the girl cut herself twice. The second

92
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: time was on a live stream after cher Cowie wrote

93
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: quote you need to do it again. This time do

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: it live on camera. The girl later deleted her accounts

95
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: to stop the threats. Soon after, according to the FBI,

96
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: Chercowi posted her family's name and home address. The Justice

97
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: Department said Cherkowie is tied to a group known as

98
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: seven sixty four, described as a network of quote nihilistic

99
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: violent extremists. The complaint says these groups want chaos. The

100
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 1: DOJ says they prey on kids and pressure them to

101
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: hurt themselves, to harm animals, and to give over sexual images.

102
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: One message from Cherkowie, after hearing a false rumor that

103
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: a woman he targeted had died, said quote, Hey guys,

104
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: it looks like we actually killed a person. The FBI

105
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: searched cher Cowie's home in June. Agents say they found

106
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: books on explosives, body armor, ski masks, a trench coat,

107
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: zip ties, and tactical gear. In the search. On the fourteenth,

108
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: agents say they found writings that mapped out a plan

109
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: to join ISIS and then returned to the United States

110
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: to commit acts of terror. The complaint also lists dozens

111
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: of online posts tied to Chercowi. In one, he wrote quote,

112
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: punish yourself for being so fat. Don't ever stop cutting

113
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: until you lose some weight. In another, he wrote quote

114
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: it's not illegal to be a pedophile. I just want

115
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: a thirteen year old trad wife. He also wrote quote

116
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: there's not enough school shootings. Federal agents say he pushed

117
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: miners for nude photos. They say he meant threats to

118
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: docs people that is, posting documents about their personal lives

119
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: and information about their identity, and spoke about swatting people

120
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: sending a massive police response to their homes. The cyberstalking
