Speaker 1: backyard and on his porch, and he didn't notice a

7
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: thing for two days. A guy is dead, your friend

8
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: is dead in a lounge chair on your porch, and

9
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: you go two days ignoring repeated calls, text messages, social

10
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: media requests from family and friends. You don't see any

11
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: of that. You show up at the front door and

12
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: you're underwear with the glass of water and go hah.

13
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: Two people arrested listen.

14
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 2: Jordan Willis and Ivory Carson have been charged with distribution

15
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: of a controlled substance and three counts of involuntary manslaughter.

16
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: That from our friends at k NBC nine News joining

17
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: me in All Star panel. But first I want to

18
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: go to a very special guest joining us. It's Jonathan Price,

19
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: the brother of one of those three victims, Ricky Johnson. Jonathan,

20
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. Thank you for having

21
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: me as Jonathan, I wonder sometimes if this day would

22
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: ever come. You said, from the get go, something is wrong,

23
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: something is horribly wrong. It didn't happen this way, and

24
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: you were right.

25
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just said from the very beginning, it didn't

26
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 3: make sense, and it still doesn't make sense that they

27
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: were able to rule out foul play from day one,

28
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: and then you know, with these charges. I mean, I

29
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 3: don't know the legal definition of foul play, but it

30
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 3: definitely seems like they now believe that there was foul play.

31
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 3: So just keeping keeping us in the dark for this long,

32
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 3: it is very troubling, but there is still a sense

33
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 3: of relief among all of us that this is hopefully

34
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 3: coming to a conclusion.

35
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: You guys have been dragged through hell and back. And

36
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: during the Super Bowl when the Chiefs were playing, I

37
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: thought about you and your family and I wondered what's

38
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 1: going through their minds tonight as everybody's celebrating and partying,

39
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: and you still did not have answers in your brother's death.

40
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, I think about Rickey daily,

41
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 3: and you know, even more so when the Chiefs are

42
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 3: playing or KU's playing, you know, there's you know, he

43
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 3: cared much about his family and about his sports, and

44
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: we we shared that our entire lives and uh, you know,

45
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 3: those those memories will always live on. And uh, you know,

46
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: like I said before, it's there. There is a sense

47
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: of relief that, you know, something that's coming from all

48
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: of this.

49
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: Well, I was wondering, Jonathan, when everybody was celebrating and

50
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: there was the big lead up to the Chiefs playing

51
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl and everybody's what's Taylor Swift gonna wear?

52
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: And are they going to get engaged? Is she pregnant?

53
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. Were you thinking what about

54
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: my brother? What about my brother? Because I was thinking

55
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: that the whole way through the Super Bowl.

56
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: Absolutely, you know, every every day we've been saying this,

57
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 3: and uh, you know it kind of went a radio

58
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 3: asilent for a very long time. And then you know,

59
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: we were still hearing that there was no foul play.

60
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: You know, there's there's just too much still out there

61
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 3: and it's all about what's going to come out of trial.

62
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: But you know there's still lots of questions.

63
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, Jonathan, there is absolutely going to be

64
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: a trial. You guys kept in the dark for so long,

65
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: which must have been agonizing, agonizing as you wanted so

66
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: badly for your brother to get justice, and to think

67
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: that for all that time, he sat in his house,

68
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: throwing back the booze, hanging around in his underwear. And

69
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: this guy is no idiot. He's a scientist, for Pete's sake.

70
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: Ignoring the dead body in anounced heir on the porch,

71
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: ignoring his friend's cars parked directly in front of his house.

72
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: How can you ignore that? How can you not hear

73
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: the phone for two days, not notice that you were

74
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: being barraged in social media and texts and emails, acting

75
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: like nothing happened, and then to pack up and leave town.

76
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: H Well, this is how the whole thing started.

77
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 4: January seventh is a football day for the Kansas City Chiefs,

78
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 4: as they will be playing the Los Angeles Chargers, So

79
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 4: thirty eight year old Jordan Willis invites a couple of

80
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 4: buddies to come to his house and watch the game.

81
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: David Harrington, Ricky Johnson, and Clayton mcghiney arrive at Willis's

82
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 4: house just in time for the three twenty five kickoff.

83
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 4: They enjoy the game as the Chiefs beat the Chargers

84
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 4: thirteen to twelve, and Willis makes plans for them to

85
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 4: get tickets to the next home game.

86
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: So everything's fine. They're all there watching the game together.

87
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: Then what happens after the game? Jordan Willis waves the

88
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: guys off and crashes on the couch.

89
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 4: On Monday, January eighth, Jordan Willis claims he did not

90
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 4: leave his home at all. He would normally have to

91
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 4: take his dogs Sadie and Daisy outside to do their business,

92
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 4: but they're all staying at his dad's place.

93
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: Okay, wait a minute. He had described his dogs as

94
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: the quote loves of his life. How did they end

95
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: up somewhere else? Okay, that's just a tangential question. But

96
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: right there, something is way wrong. Joining me. Crime Stories

99
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: friends and claims he crashes on the sofa for what

100
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: the next two or three days? I mean, if you

101
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: take it from Sunday until finally the police were at

102
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: the front door. After the girlfriend breaks in the window

103
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: to find the dead body and starts screaming, I mean,

104
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: that's his story, Dave, seriously.

105
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 5: And he's sticking to it.

106
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 6: Nancy.

107
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 5: He has always claimed that he crashed out, doesn't know

108
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 5: what the guys did. He was sound asleep for the

109
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 5: next seventy two hours, and he missed all the messages.

110
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 5: He didn't get any pet he didn't get any text messages,

111
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 5: phone calls because that phone was ringing off the hook.

112
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 5: All those guys, family and friends were reaching out to

113
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 5: him because they were always in contact. But Jordan Willis

114
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 5: claims he slept through the entire thing for three days

115
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,239
Speaker 5: and he only got up when they, you know, basically

116
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 5: broke into his house and John there were dead guys

117
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 5: in the backyard.

118
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: Jonathan Price is with me. This is Ricky Johnson's brother

119
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: who passed away. You know, when I think about what

120
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: he went through, it was so cold out there. Do

121
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: you let yourself? I mean, I try not to think

122
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: about what my fiance went through when he was murdered.

123
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 1: He was shot five times in the face, the neck,

124
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: the head, and I try not to think about it

125
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: because it will mess me up so badly and I

126
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: have children to raise. Do you ever let yourself think

127
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: about what Ricky went through? While their friend was inside

128
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: in his underwear, passed out.

129
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: I think about that all the time, you know, especially

130
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 3: with these these three gentlemen, you know, being inseparable for

131
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 3: a very very long time, and for all three of

132
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 3: them to happen at the exact same time, and some

133
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: of them were going through in the final moments of

134
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 3: seeing maybe one of their friends go down first at all.

135
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 3: So many questions still on how that would have happened.

136
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: And I pray that all the facts, not just some

137
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: of the facts, but that all the facts will come

138
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: out and we will know is no idiot three days

139
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: Sunday Monday Tuesy, and I never knew my friend. My

140
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: friend was dead on the front on the back porch,

141
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: and my other friends were dead lying in my yard.

142
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: How can he? How can he say that? Oh yeah,

143
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: And all the phone calls and all the texts and

144
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: all the emails and all the social media. He said

145
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 1: he was wearing noise canceling headphones for three days.

146
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 7: Really, he says he was wearing noise canceling earphones, and

147
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 7: he was in his house. He didn't notice the car

148
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 7: in front, and he didn't notice three of his friends.

149
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 7: He wasn't texting them the day after. Hey, guys, let's

150
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 7: go get tickets for the next game because the Chiefs

151
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 7: had won. Acted like he was completely shut off from

152
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 7: the whole world and noise canceling headphones. Sure maybe right,

153
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 7: You maybe can't hear a little thing in the next room,

154
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 7: but you're going to hear people beating on your door

155
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 7: and you're going to see your phone blowing up for

156
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 7: two days.

157
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: So let me understand something, Dave Mac. How many days

158
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: passed before the girlfriend the fiance has to come and

159
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 1: literally break in. When did that happen? Just give me

160
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: a number.

161
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 6: Two days?

162
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: All right?

163
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 5: Two days?

164
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 8: What day was on?

165
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 5: The game was on Tuesday, games on Saturday, on Sunday

166
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 5: the seventh, and Tuesday the ninth is the day police

167
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 5: are at the door.

168
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: Okay, you know what. They didn't teach me math in

169
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 1: law school. But seven eight nine, that's three days. Seven

170
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: is Sunday, the day of the game, which is in

171
00:09:52,679 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: the early afternoon, all night, all day Monday until finally Tuesday,

172
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: when the fiance is beside herself, she can't find her

173
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: fiance and goes looking for him. Listen.

174
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 9: On January eighth, friends and family are concerned. They were

175
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 9: headed to Jordan Willis house to watch the game, but

176
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 9: now none of the guys, including Jordan Willis, are replying

177
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 9: to messages on social media or by phone.

178
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 10: On Tuesday, January ninth, nine fifty one pm, Clayton mckinee's

179
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 10: fiance shows up at the house. She sees the cars

180
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 10: in the driveway, and since nobody is answering the phone

181
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 10: or replying to messages, she breaks into the home and

182
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 10: screams Willis's name. She walks through the house. Then she

183
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 10: looks on the back porch and sees a body.

184
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: Oh my stars, okay, Jonathan Price is joining me. This

185
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: is Ricky's brother, beloved brother. I might ad they grew

186
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: up together and they would argue about who's going to

187
00:10:55,200 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: watch Power Rangers and who's gonna watch ESPN. Very very

188
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: loving relationship, their whole lives. In my mind, that's three days.

189
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: You got the Chiefs game early afternoon Sunday there together

190
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: in Sunday night, all day Monday, Monday night, and then

191
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: Tuesday nine to fifty one, that's nearly ten o'clock at night,

192
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: Clayton's fiance comes hysterical trying to find him, has to

193
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: break in and seize a dead body. Is my timing correct, Jonathan,

194
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: I mean it appears to be correct.

195
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not very good at math either, but

196
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 3: you know, there's there's a question in my mind that

197
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 3: there's no possible way you can sleep that long and

198
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 3: just not know what's going on.

199
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: I agree, Jonathan, no way. What was he doing in

200
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: the joining me is a veteran defense attorney has handled

201
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: a number of high profile cases. Derek Smith is joining

202
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: me out of Ohio. He's at d W Smith Legal

203
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,839
Speaker 1: dot com. Derek, really the defense I slept through the

204
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 1: whole thing. I mean, for those of you who just

205
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: joining us, finally movement a bombshell arrest of two people

206
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: in connection with the deaths of three Kansas City chiefs,

207
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: fans who were frozen to death and their buddy the

208
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: scientist backyard Derek Smith. Can he really look at a

209
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: jury and say, I slept for three days with noise

210
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: canceling headsets on, I knew nothing.

211
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 3: Yes and no, and this is a terrible situation.

212
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 11: Is best friend, some of his frenzies with his whole

213
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 11: entire life, like they said, they were very close utter

214
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 11: uttershock and disbelief and just manic depression.

215
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 3: Will put somebody.

216
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 11: Down looking out your window and seeing your friends in

217
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 11: the condition they were in. That's enough right there to

218
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 11: send a person into deep shock, disbelief and just pass

219
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 11: right back out.

220
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 3: Does not want to be.

221
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: That's a good one. So he saw the bodies and

222
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: then passed back out, you know. To doctor Hidie Green

223
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: joining me, clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, author of The Path

224
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: to Self Love and World Domination, Doctor Heidiegreen dot com.

225
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: Doctor Heidie So, now we're getting a spin on that

226
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: and no telling what it's going to morph into by

227
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 1: the time this goes to trial. So Jonathan Price braced yourself.

228
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: So Derek Smith is spinning it out, you know, like

229
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: Rumpel Stileskin would take that nasty hay out of the

230
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: barn and spin it into gold. He is now hypothesizing

231
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: that the defendant, one of the two arrested in the

232
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: desks of three people that were left to freeze out

233
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: in the yard one on his porch, is that he

234
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: came to from his deep sleep. You know, I'll throw

235
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: in sleeping beauty there. He came to, saw the dead

236
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: body of his friend and then passed out, Doctor Heidie Green.

237
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: Psychologically speaking, that seems very unlikely to me.

238
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 8: So it is very unlikely that he fell unconscious for

239
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 8: seventy two hours as a result of a significant trauma.

240
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 8: And we can say if your friends died accidentally, if

241
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 8: that's what we're going with, and you saw them in

242
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 8: your home, it's obviously possible that you would have a

243
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 8: significant trauma response, and that trauma response could include a

244
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 8: freeze response. I could see somebody maybe being in their

245
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 8: house terrified to answer the throne, terrified to go and

246
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 8: look at the bodies, wanting to essentially just pretend like

247
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 8: nothing's going on. But to actually be unconscious for seventy

248
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 8: two hours, that seems far less likely as a trauma.

249
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:59,119
Speaker 1: Resport crime stores with Nancy Grace.

250
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 9: Screaming, Clayton mcguinea's fiance calls police. Officers arrived to find

251
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 9: Willis in his underwear with an empty glass of wine

252
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 9: in hand. According to the victims' families, the other two

253
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 9: bodies were then found in the backyard. Jordan Willis tells

254
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 9: police he has no idea what happened. John Piserno, an

255
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 9: attorney representing Willis, said his client had no idea his

256
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 9: friends were dead until police knocked on his door. Hayley

257
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 9: Lettier wrote, My husband banged on his door for twenty minutes.

258
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 9: My friend banged on his door and then busted a

259
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 9: window and yelled and announced her presence while she's inside

260
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 9: and steal nothing from him. Then the cops come ten

261
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 9: minutes later, and he comes out nonchalant in his boxers

262
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 9: with an empty wine glass in hand. Nothing is adding up.

263
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 9: Dave Clay and Ricky need and deserve justice.

264
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,359
Speaker 1: Yes they do. And in the last hours a bombshell,

265
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: two people arrested in the deaths of three Kansas City

266
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs fans found apparently frozen on his porch and backyard.

267
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Jonathan Price is with me. This is Ricky's brother, Jonathan.

268
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: Your brother is always described as a Kansas City Chief fan.

269
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: That's really not doing him justice. He was so much more.

270
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 3: Tell me well, Ricky was very humble. He loved everybody

271
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 3: he ever interacted with. He always saw the good and people.

272
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 3: He helped out anybody in need anytime, no matter if

273
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: at one time they were seen as enemies or you know,

274
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 3: just not friends in general. But he was just such

275
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: a kind person, loving father, brother, son, cousin. You know,

276
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 3: he was truly cherished by our entire family.

277
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: Tell me about your family.

278
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 3: Well, I mean we kind of we grew up, you know,

279
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 3: separated at some points, but we always came together for

280
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 3: family events.

281
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: You know.

282
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 3: We were always there at Christmas times, holding our own

283
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 3: different Christmases to make sure that all of our schedules

284
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 3: matched up to where we can all see each other.

285
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 3: And when I was in the military, anytime I came home,

286
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 3: Ricky and my other brother Rusty, they always made it

287
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 3: a point and my sister Lisa, they always all made

288
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 3: it a point to come home all to be together

289
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 3: every time. So we you know, we cherished each other.

290
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 3: And there's very fond memories of of Ricky growing up

291
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 3: and everything he was to all of us.

292
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: When you say the memories you had growing up memories.

293
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 3: Well, my love for football, I love for all sports

294
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 3: came from Ricky.

295
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: You know.

296
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 3: Seeing my my two oldest brothers, you know, throwing the

297
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 3: football farther that I could have made when I was

298
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 3: a small child, I just I looked up to them.

299
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 3: That's a picture of us right there with the X

300
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 3: factor at the Kansas City game. You know, we went

301
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,719
Speaker 3: to the very first game that Pastion Mahomes was playing

302
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 3: in the preseason, and uh, we you know, you met

303
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 3: my entire family, and you know, even though we were

304
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,919
Speaker 3: states away, you know, we always we always talked about

305
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 3: the sports of Kansas City and you know, everything that

306
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 3: we were accomplishing. Finally, after so many years of being

307
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 3: you know, an up and down team. You know, we

308
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 3: we shared a lot of memories together and uh, you know,

309
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 3: I I just I love them.

310
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 1: We are learning more about the death of the so

311
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: called Three Chiefs fans.

312
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 12: As news starts to spread of the three friends freezing

313
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 12: to death in the backyard while their friend is asleep inside,

314
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 12: the families of the victims begin to speak out and

315
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 12: ask questions. The biggest question for Jordan Willis is what

316
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 12: happened next? Was why didn't you answer calls, text messages

317
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 12: and social media messages from family and friends of the

318
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 12: three men.

319
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 4: The Daily Mail reports. Willis insists he spent the next

320
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 4: two days in his home, not thinking anything of the

321
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 4: fact that his friend's cars were still outside, and only

322
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 4: learned they died when the fiance of one of the

323
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 4: men broke into the house on January ninth in the

324
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 4: hopes of finding him.

325
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: Jonathan Price. Where were the victims cars parked in relation

326
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: to the friends home.

327
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 3: Well, I guess if you're based on what I've heard,

328
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 3: if you look out the front door, they were just

329
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 3: off to the right, and I guess there was potentially

330
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 3: two out of the three cars, because I think someone

331
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 3: might have car pooled. But either way, my brother drove

332
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 3: an F one fifty, so it was you know, se

333
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 3: my large truck right there in the front. There's no

334
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: way to miss it.

335
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: So Mary Hudgson joining me, former la now chief investigator

336
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: for Barry and Associates, Investigative Services in Kansas and Missouri. Barry,

337
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: let me understand. So this guy, the so called friend,

338
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: could find a wine glass and fill it up with wine,

339
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: and find his noise canceling headphones. He could find those,

340
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: he could see those, but he couldn't see his dead

341
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: friend on the porch and in the yard, or their

342
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: vehicles part in front of his house. Man see this.

343
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 13: Story, you know, his his excuses for how everything happened.

344
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 13: It just makes no sense at all. You know, I've

345
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 13: been thinking about this and one of the things that

346
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 13: I thought about. You know, the guy came to the

347
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 13: door in his underwear, and he said that he had

348
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 13: been asleep for seventy two hours.

349
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 3: We knew that he'd been.

350
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 13: Drinking a lot apparently, so if he slept for solid

351
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 13: three hours, don't you think his body would have evacuated

352
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 13: while he was asleep for three solid days. If he

353
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 13: never got up, he would have wet his south. Did

354
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 13: he come to the door with soiled underwear or did

355
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 13: he look like he urinated on his stuff? You know

356
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 13: when you arrested drunk on the street most of the

357
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 13: time and they're awake, theyp all over theirself. This guy

358
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 13: did look a year and nat dona set because if

359
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 13: he didn't, that kind of shoots that story right in

360
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 13: behind the end.

361
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: He asked me, Yeah, I mean he had to get

362
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: up and go to the bathroom. Doctor Kendall Crown's joining me,

363
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: and he's here for other reasons, But since we're on

364
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: this topic, Doctor Kendall Crown's with me. Chief Medical Examiner

365
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: Terrant County. That's fort Worth never a lack of business,

366
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: esteemed lecturer at Burnett's School of Medicine TCU, and launching

367
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: a new podcast, doa Dead on Arrival March seven. Doctor

368
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: Crown's is that true what Barry just told us? I mean,

369
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: how could he go seventy two hours drinking. Let me

370
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: add that in and not getting up and finding his

371
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: way to the bathroom.

372
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 14: Oh, I agree with that. There's no way you could

373
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 14: sleep for three days after consuming that much alcohol and

374
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 14: also eating that Your body wouldn't urinate on itself for defecates.

375
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 14: So it's impossible to believe that he spent that entire

376
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 14: time asleep and not getting up and go at least

377
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 14: going to the bathroom.

378
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 10: Jordan Willis's attorney, John Pacerno, refuses to answer questions about

379
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 10: whether the men were using drugs. Paserno says there was

380
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 10: a fifth man in the home on the night of

381
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,199
Speaker 10: January seventh. Willis says the man is a buddy who

382
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 10: left earlier than the.

383
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: Other three men.

384
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 4: As the investigation heated up, Jordan Willis moved out of

385
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 4: the home and checked into rehab. A forensic data extraction

386
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 4: found text messages on Harrington's phone between Willis, Mcgheini, Johnson,

387
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 4: and others that proved Carson was the person who supplied

388
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 4: the group with cocaine, DNA evidence matsh Willis identifying him

389
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 4: as a major contributor, and DNA evidence from the second

390
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 4: bag match, Carson confirming his role as the drugs of.

391
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: Liar, packs up and goes to rehab. So to Jonathan Price,

392
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: when did you learn that the so called best friend

393
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: of your brother packs up, clears out the house, takes

394
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: his dog, goes to rehab.

395
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 3: I mean, the only time that we found out was

396
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 3: whenever it was reported in the news, which is kind

397
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 3: of the unfortunate part of all this. But if you

398
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: have the mental capacity to know you have a problem

399
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 3: after the fact and check yourself into rehab, then you know,

400
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 3: you know more about what happened that night. And I

401
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 3: don't know if you shared that or not with the authorities,

402
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 3: but the fact that he was not detained you after

403
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 3: that night or the past fourteen months doesn't really make

404
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 3: any sense to me.

405
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know. To Derek Smith, why is that the

406
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: go to with your clients and all the stars, it's

407
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: only after they're busted for something that they suddenly realize

408
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: they have a problem and they hide out in rehab.

409
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 11: Well, unfortunately, it takes an event like that to really

410
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 11: change a lifestyle or change a mindset or even in

411
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 11: these cases, a serious addiction.

412
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 3: I mean, it's akin to.

413
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 11: Being in a certain way of life, certain way of

414
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 11: doing things, everything's fine as long as everything's fine, and

415
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,919
Speaker 11: then something tragic or something terrible, or the law gets involved,

416
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 11: and you have to make a drastic change, And that's,

417
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 11: unfortunately just how it is.

418
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 3: Sometimes.

419
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: Joining me right now is a special guest just joining us,

420
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 1: Eric Zand is with us. It is the Platte County

421
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: prosecutor who was working on the case. And I know,

422
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: Eric number one, thank you for being with us, But

423
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: I know what you can say is limited, having been

424
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: a prosecutor for many years myself, but I want to

425
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. The family questioned this

426
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: from the get go, and I know the prosecutors get

427
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: the case once LA law enforcement finishes their investigation. But

428
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure you know, having dealt with so many crime victims,

429
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: how agonizing this has been for the family to be

430
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: waiving the banner. This isn't right, this isn't normal. This

431
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,239
Speaker 1: guy's not innocent. He won't say a word to us

432
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: about what happened. And this is the alleged best friend

433
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: they've been waiting all this time. Now, Eric, don't get

434
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: me wrong, I'm glad we finally have bombshell arrests in

435
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: the desks of the three Kansas City Chase fans. But

436
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: what took so long? Please explain it.

437
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 6: Yeah, You're absolutely right, Nancy, this was a long time coming.

438
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 6: And our hearts absolutely go out to these family members.

439
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 6: I met with them shortly after these deaths, and it's

440
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 6: just really tragic. It's honestly, it's another reminder of the

441
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 6: dangers of street drugs, and these cases are tough to

442
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 6: put together. Cracking down who's responsible for providing these drugs

443
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 6: is no easy task. But I can't tell you how

444
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 6: proud I am Nancy of the Kansas City Police Department

445
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 6: and prosecutors in my office, who from day one said

446
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 6: that they weren't going to rest until we exhausted every

447
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 6: possible resource to bring the people we believe responsible for

448
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 6: these crimes to justice, and yesterday was the first step

449
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 6: in that. As you know, these men are presumed innocent

450
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 6: and lesson until proven guilty, but we've charged them what

451
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 6: we think happened, which was providing cocaine and fentanyl and

452
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 6: causing the deaths of these three men.

453
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, this is what Platte County

454
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: Prosecutor Eric Xand had to say.

455
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: A doctor with Forensic Medical of Kansas found that mister mcghini,

456
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 2: mister Harrington, and mister Johnson all died of fentanyl and

457
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: cocaine combined toxicity.

458
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 1: Now from our forensic KMBC nine News. So, Eric, your assertion,

459
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: what you're going to prove, I think in trial is

460
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: that the casual use of a little cocaine, although family

461
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: says that at least one of the victims had never

462
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:59,479
Speaker 1: used cocaine before, but the casual use of cocaine turned

463
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: deadly because it was cut with Yeah.

464
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 6: In this case, what we alleged is that there were

465
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 6: two baggies found at the scene. One of those baggies

466
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 6: contained cocaine, the other baggie we alleged contained sentinel. Them

467
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 6: found that it was a combination of those two drugs

468
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 6: that caused these men's deaths. And so we've charged both

469
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 6: of the men, one of them who we believe provided

470
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 6: the cocaine, the other who we alleged sold the fentanyl

471
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 6: that caused these deaths, And we allege, because we charged

472
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 6: them with manslaughter, that they recklessly caused the deaths of

473
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 6: these three men.

474
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, listen to what Jonathan Price

475
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: had to say from.

476
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 3: The very beginning.

477
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 15: He said that before the fifth person came out. He

478
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 15: said that Jordan was there sporadically throughout the day and

479
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 15: then whenever, and then he also did not mention a

480
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 15: fifth person. But once the fifth person came out, then

481
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 15: he changed it to you, saying that there was a

482
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 15: fifth person and that he was asleep the entire time.

483
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 15: So those were two very specific details that were specific

484
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 15: in the opening statement but then changed over time.

485
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: So Alexis Tereschuk joining US Crime Stories investigative reporter, the

486
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: best friend now charged in a homicide case, changed his story.

487
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,719
Speaker 1: He never mentioned anybody else was there beside him and

488
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: his three buddies all dead, frozen dead in the backyard,

489
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: and he goes three days and doesn't notice they're on

490
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: his back porch. There's a mystery guy, a fifth person.

491
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: Elect says he changed his story.

492
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 7: Why because the fifth person was a person that provided

493
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 7: the drugs. According to police, this is somebody who they

494
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 7: have all known for quite a while that Jordan has known,

495
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 7: and he was contacted and this man brought the drugs.

496
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 7: This so there's cocaine. Jordan Willis's DNA is on the cocaine.

497
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 7: Irey Carson's DNA is on the bag of fentanyl and

498
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 7: that is the toxic combination that killed these men. So

499
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 7: he was he had come over and brought them the cocaine.

500
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 7: And the way that the police found this out wasn't

501
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 7: through Jordan Willis. He never mentioned any of these details.

502
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 7: But David Harrington's phone is the one phone that they

503
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 7: were able to extract evidence from, and they saw on

504
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 7: there there were group chats about buying the cocaine. Willis

505
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 7: was the one that would always provide it for them.

506
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 7: These other guys didn't have enough. Cocain's expensive, it's not

507
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 7: a cheap drug. And then you topped that off of

508
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 7: the feninyl and he was the one that did it.

509
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 7: So there were group chat text messages that showed that

510
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 7: these were how they got the drugs.

511
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: To Eric Xann joining me right now. Platt's county prosecutor,

512
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: who is charged with last sewing all this evidence and

513
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: presenting it to a jury. Did he really think we

514
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: wouldn't find out about the fifth guy, the mystery man,

515
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: and all of his statements at the get go that

516
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: was never mentioned. Now we know why he was the

517
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: dope dealer.

518
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 6: Well, and Nancy, I can't I can't comment on exactly

519
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 6: what either of these defendants thought or said. But what

520
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 6: I can tell you is that we allege that mister

521
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 6: Willis provided cocaine and mister Carson sold Sentinel to these men,

522
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 6: and we alleged that resulted in the deaths of these

523
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 6: three great people who were boyfriends, husbands, fathers, sons of

524
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 6: people in Kansas City. It's truly tragic. And here's what

525
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 6: folks have to understand. If you deal drugs and somebody

526
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 6: dies as a result, we will do everything we can

527
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 6: to make sure that you're held accountable for the deaths

528
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 6: of those people. That's exactly what we're trying to do.

529
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 8: In this case.

530
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: Crime with Nancy Grace.

531
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 3: These three men were inseparable.

532
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 15: You look at any of their facebooks, any picture that's

533
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 15: posted that it's not of.

534
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 3: Their family, it's of these men.

535
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 15: And if just one of them, even two of them

536
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 15: passed out at the same time, which is already impossible,

537
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 15: you know, the other man would have absolutely brought them

538
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 15: inside and called for help something.

539
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 3: So that's just insane.

540
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: This is what Platte County Prosecutor Eric Xander tells us.

541
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 2: He saw a large plate of cocaine allegedly supplied by

542
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 2: mister Willis that everyone was using.

543
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: According to prosecutors, the defendant provided it, the friend, the friend,

544
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: the scientist, the HIV researcher, Jordan Willis, H thirty nine.

545
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: The best friend supplied a plate of coke, possibly laced

546
00:31:54,840 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: with Sentinel, to his friends. You were just hearing from

547
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: our friends at KMBC nine US to doctor Kendall Crown's

548
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: joining us, Doctor Kendle Crowns, I want to understand how

549
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: the use of these drugs, potentially cocaine cut with fentanyl.

550
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: Don't know if they knew it was cut with fentanyl,

551
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: what that would look like. I mean, it's hard for

552
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: me to understand, although I've heard about it, I've prosecuted,

553
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: I've seen it at crime scenes where you have a

554
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: party and there's a plate of cocaine out. I mean,

555
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: I would think there'd be sandwiches and chicken wings, right, celery, carrots,

556
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: ranch dip. There's a plate of cocaine and everybody's doing it.

557
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: You know how many times have you heard that, mom,

558
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: everybody's doing it. How are people supposed to know that

559
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: cocaine could be laced with fentanyl and what fentanyl can

560
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: do with you? Even a touch of fentanyl can kill you.

561
00:32:55,160 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: So what would fentanyl look like. Can it be in

562
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: a powder form?

563
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 14: Yes, it can. Actually it'll be kind of in a wipe.

564
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 14: It can be in a white pottery form. It can

565
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 14: be in the form of a fake percocet, which is

566
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 14: a blue pill that has an M thirty label on it.

567
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 14: It can be a patch. It can even be on

568
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 14: a lozenge type suckers, one of the ways it is distributed.

569
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,959
Speaker 14: But anyway, cocaine, if it's cut with something fentanyl, can

570
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 14: be very deadly, and you don't know how much fentanyl

571
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 14: has been put in there, how much fentanyl you're actually

572
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 14: getting with the amount of cocaine that's been cut with it.

573
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 14: So that's why you could have a group of people

574
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 14: sitting together and three of them die and two of

575
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 14: them live because one got more fentanyl than the other.

576
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 14: Because it's it's really not regulated like a drug through

577
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 14: the FDA, it's just widely all over the place. So

578
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 14: that's why the street drugs are very dangerous is you

579
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 14: never know what you're getting. And one thing, we've had

580
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 14: cocaine cut with a dog de wormer as well, so

581
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 14: it's incredibly dangerous.

582
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: Ad Chinel Crown I have investigated cases. For instance, an

583
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: infant at daycare. Little did the family know that the

584
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: daycare provider was storing fentanyl there also dealing like I

585
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: think the husband or the boyfriend was dealing, and they

586
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: moved the fentanyl from one place to the next inside

587
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: the daycare, and that movement released particles of fentanyl and

588
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: the infant inhaled it or touched it. It killed the baby.

589
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: So if you've got a plate of cocaine at last,

590
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: with any fentnel at all, there's your OD right there.

591
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: What started off as I guess a good time is

592
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: in death. I mean you can die from even inhaling

593
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: particles or touching particles of fentanyl.

594
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 14: Yes, fentanyl is incredibly dangerous and even its friend or

595
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 14: another derivative of a car fentanyl is even more dangerous

596
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 14: down to the fact that law enforcement and paramedics will

597
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,760
Speaker 14: now carry in a lock zone, which is a way

598
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 14: to counteract the effects of the opioid in their rigs

599
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 14: or in their cars too. If they get exposed to

600
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 14: it and begin having symptoms, they can take it and

601
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 14: try and save themselves. So fentanel is incredibly dangerous. It's

602
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 14: not a drug you really should mess with.

603
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just thinking about these victims and how

604
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,879
Speaker 1: they ended up frozen in plain view of their so

605
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: called friend Jordan Willis. You know, I'm trying to think

606
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: about their families. Dave mac tell me about the victims' families.

607
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: I know Jonathan is here speaking on behalf of his

608
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 1: brother Ricky, who died that day, whose body sat out

609
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: there freezing for so long? What about the other victims?

610
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 5: You know? Nancy? Mister Harrington's mom, Theresa, claimed she's been

611
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 5: kept out of the loop since the bodies worked, and

612
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 5: she said that they wouldn't tell me anything. Now she

613
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 5: is saying that the statements made it easy to think

614
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,399
Speaker 5: that they had already made up their minds and there

615
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 5: wouldn't be any further investigation. And she's really pushing back

616
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 5: on this. She said the arrest didn't really clear up

617
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 5: any speculation about the dead, saying, quote, I still don't

618
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 5: know anything about how my son died or his last moments.

619
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 5: That's pretty upsetting when you look at this over a

620
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 5: year down the road, that she doesn't know any more

621
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 5: than you and I might know.

622
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 1: Well, Kendall Crown's what would someone go through if they

623
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: literally sat outside and an accidental fentyl stupor and froze dead.

624
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: That would be horrible, but they couldn't get up and move.

625
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 14: So basically fentnyl makes your respiratory drive decrease and makes

626
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 14: your brain not think it needs enough oxygen, and so

627
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 14: you slowly kind of drift off into a coma that

628
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 14: eventually fully your brain, not getting enough oxygen, begins to die,

629
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 14: which causes your lungs to fill with fluid, and then

630
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 14: you pass away. It wouldn't necessarily immobilize you to the

631
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 14: point that you couldn't get up and get yourself out

632
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 14: of an unsafe situation unless you've gone into a coma.

633
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,280
Speaker 14: So those individuals, how would.

634
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: They sit there and on the porch and a lounge

635
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: chair and lay in the backyard if they could move?

636
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm certainly not a medical doctor, but certainly

637
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: they would get up off the porch or get off

638
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: the ground and come inside. According to the defendant, the

639
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: door was unlocked. I submit they couldn't.

640
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 14: Well, that's if they're so conscious, if they've gotten enough

641
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 14: fentyl in and it's caused them to go into basically

642
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,319
Speaker 14: a coma, they can't move at that point, and then

643
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 14: they will either more likely than not die from the

644
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 14: fentanyl prior to dying from freezing to death, because there

645
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 14: are auto findings you'll find that'll show that they died

646
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 14: from hype both thermia or freezing to death, which I

647
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 14: haven't seen any reports of that being found.

648
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: Alexis Teresshut. We keep referring to them as the Kansas

649
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: City Chiefs fans, and they were so much more than that.

650
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,320
Speaker 1: Tell me about their families.

651
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 7: Well, Clayton mcginney was engaged. He was engaged to a

652
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 7: woman named April Mahoney, and they were very happy together.

653
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 1: They were very young.

654
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,399
Speaker 7: You know, he worked in construction, small business construction, and

655
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 7: he was going through a really rough time. There weren't

656
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 7: a lot of jobs. But they were still together at

657
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 7: the time, and she in fact started a GoFundMe to

658
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 7: sell everybody like he was so wonderful and he was

659
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 7: somebody that was her whole life, and the two of

660
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 7: them had all these future plans together and then it

661
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 7: was abruptly cut short. And in fact, she was the

662
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 7: one that found that April was trying trying trying to

663
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,240
Speaker 7: reach him, Clayton, calling him over and over again. She's

664
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 7: the one that showed up at Jordan Willis's house. She

665
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 7: broke through the basement window, she got out, she found

666
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 7: and then the other two guys.

667
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: Did Overnight, we learned to arrested in the horrific deaths

668
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: of three Kansas City Chiefs fans watching a football game

669
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: with their so called best friend now behind bars. Arrested

670
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: the so called best friend, Jordan Willis, and a guy

671
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: named Ivory J. Carson a k A Blade. Okay, straight

672
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: back out to Jonathan Price, this is Ricky's brother. Tell

673
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 1: me your thoughts.

674
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, summing everything up, you know, I just

675
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 3: you know, he was my brother. I cherish him a lot.

676
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 3: And his three daughters, you know, and you know, so

677
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 3: a couple of them are a little bit young to

678
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:57,320
Speaker 3: fully understand. It's a it's very difficult to think about

679
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 3: what they are going through and the answers that they

680
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 3: have been neglected for all this time, and it's it's just,

681
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 3: you know, very makes us very distraught.

682
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,399
Speaker 1: Jonathan Price, you want to set the record straight on

683
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: some certain issues.

684
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 3: What well, one of the things that we've been told

685
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 3: since the beginning which did not make sense is the

686
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 3: ruling out of foul play. And you know, the the

687
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 3: amount of information that we've gotten since then, you know,

688
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 3: since January ninth, it's it's been very disappointing. I'm glad.

689
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 3: I understand that it takes time, and you know, I'm

690
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 3: glad that we are finally getting some answers, but there's

691
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 3: there's still a lot out there that we don't fully understand.

692
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 3: And just three or four months ago, Jordan's lawyer was

693
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 3: saying that he thinks that charges will come, but not

694
00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 3: to Jordan, and that's from talking to some pro secutor.

695
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,439
Speaker 3: So that part doesn't make sense to me either. And

696
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 3: I'm just the more I give back into this, you know,

697
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 3: the more pain that's coming back, just like there was

698
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,399
Speaker 3: back then, and the more questions that are arising from

699
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 3: all of this.

700
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: If you know or think you know any evidence as

701
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: it relates to this case, the case is ongoing and

702
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 1: headed for trial, please dial eight one six two three

703
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: four five one one one repeat eight one six two

704
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: three four five point one one one. We pray that

705
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: justice unfolds and the truth comes out in court. And

706
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: now we remember an American hero, Officer Britney Mew Lake

707
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:53,279
Speaker 1: County Sheriffs, Indiana, a US Marine Corps veteran, survived by
