0:00:02.120 --> 0:00:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Hey, folks, it is Tuesday, March seventeenth, and Florida it's

0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>scheduled to carry out its fourth execution of the year tonight,

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and it's for a crime that made national headlines and

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>ultimately changed the way nine to one point one operators

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 1>function in the state of Florida.

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:25.800
<v Speaker 2>And with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ. Robes.

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 2>In terms of how long people spend on death row,

0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 2>this is actually, first of all, point out a case

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 2>that happened pretty quickly to go from conviction to execution.

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:38.000
<v Speaker 3>Yes, he was convicted in two thousand and nine, the

0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 3>crime was committed in two thousand and eight, and yes,

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:43.959
<v Speaker 3>less than twenty years on death row is actually a

0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:49.240
<v Speaker 3>speedy period of time between conviction and execution.

0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:52.200
<v Speaker 2>These days, unheard of, it seems almost this is really

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.120
<v Speaker 2>certain under two decades, that's something.

0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.959
<v Speaker 3>Yes, and this was a tremendous case. It's interesting when

0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:02.760
<v Speaker 3>we have been covering a lot of these executions, many

0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 3>times we will focus on the inmate who is being executed,

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 3>correct his appeals, his claims of innocence, and he due

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 3>process that was denied him. This story, in so many ways,

0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 3>is more about the victim and what happened because of

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 3>the crime, and.

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:28.400
<v Speaker 2>We should certainly point out that should always be the case,

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 2>that should always be the focal point. But this one

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 2>for unique reasons that you'll hear hear why this crime

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 2>made national headlines. It's understandable now and robes. Michael Lee

0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 2>King is the name. He's fifty four years old years

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 2>old now, but he is scheduled to die by lethal

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.080
<v Speaker 2>injection tonight. They do a three drug cocktail down there

0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 2>in Florida, but's supposed to happened around six o'clock. We

0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 2>do end up seeing robes usually by six fifteen, six'

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:58.000
<v Speaker 2>twenty that we get final confirmation of the. Deaths but

0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 2>this is always it's something we go through in this,

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 2>country almost, ceremony it feels sometimes and the steps that are,

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 2>taken but just will always want. Acknowledgeable these are solemn

0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:14.240
<v Speaker 2>moments and times that we are executing someone and usually

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:17.200
<v Speaker 2>always the case because they killed someone. Else so this

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 2>is these always difficult days and certainly for the families.

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:24.520
<v Speaker 3>By all, accounts and tonight in the execution chamber this

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:28.800
<v Speaker 3>will be a packed room because the victim in this

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.959
<v Speaker 3>case at the time was just twenty one years. Old

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:34.680
<v Speaker 3>her Name denise Amber. Lee she was a mom of

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:39.960
<v Speaker 3>a toddler and an, infant and her, husband almost twenty years,

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 3>later has still spent almost every day of his life

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 3>fighting for, change fighting for, justice and he will be

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 3>in that execution chamber witnessing the death Of, king alongside

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:57.320
<v Speaker 3>her oldest, son her, mother her, father her. Sister so

0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:00.040
<v Speaker 3>many members of her family all say they plan to

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:00.480
<v Speaker 3>be there.

0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Tonight, yeah and they're all. Different sometimes some of these

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 2>go so, long they've lasted so, long and it's up

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:09.960
<v Speaker 2>to forty years sometimes that most of the family members

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:13.679
<v Speaker 2>and people who are closer affiliated with the the cases

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.919
<v Speaker 2>are already passed. On but this is one that's Again,

0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 2>robe it's just so rare that we see something like.

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.640
<v Speaker 2>This and this is one that the year, Started it

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.000
<v Speaker 2>was not on the, books, right there are only so

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 2>many in the country that we had executions, planned and

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 2>we knew robes along the way that more death warns

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>would be, signed and we know That desanta's down In

0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>florida is not shy about signing. Them and this is

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 2>one he, SIGNED i believe In, february and it has

0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>been scheduled and here we Go florida on pace again this.

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:46.520
<v Speaker 3>Year, yes this Is DeSantis's i believe thirty second. Execution

0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:49.480
<v Speaker 3>it will be the fourth For florida this. Year and

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:54.440
<v Speaker 3>it's interesting because the husband said he wanted to explain.

0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 3>First he, SAID i don't want to have to think

0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 3>about this guy. Anymore but he said when he got

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 3>the word That DeSantis signed his death and gave him

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 3>an execution, date to excuse me, specifically he said he

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 3>was excited and he wanted to explain that word because he,

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 3>said all of us are going to be there For.

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:12.160
<v Speaker 3>DENISE i don't want to be. There it's not something

0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:14.520
<v Speaker 3>that you grow up THINKING i want to see an execution.

0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:18.520
<v Speaker 3>Someday that's not SOMETHING i think we're all necessarily excited

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.159
<v Speaker 3>to be a part. Of BUT i think we're definitely

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:24.800
<v Speaker 3>excited to know That king is not going to be alive,

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:27.839
<v Speaker 3>anymore and that this is and that he's going to

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:30.200
<v Speaker 3>be off this. Earth it's a light at the end

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.200
<v Speaker 3>of the, tunnel and closure is not something we're ever

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 3>going to, get but it makes. Sense just it's a,

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:39.599
<v Speaker 3>relief so to, speak that this man who took so

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.000
<v Speaker 3>much away from this family won't be on this earth.

0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:43.760
<v Speaker 3>Anymore you.

0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Know the other thing we often hear about, Families, yes

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 2>having that, finality but what they've had to deal with

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:57.280
<v Speaker 2>oftentimes for ten twenty thirty forty, years, appeals core, hearings,

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:01.320
<v Speaker 2>delays parole board, hearings keeps showing up for. It it

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:04.880
<v Speaker 2>becomes a part of their entire. Life what's the latest

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:06.800
<v Speaker 2>on the. Case where do we have to show up

0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>now to try to get resolution or get what the

0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 2>court system says is, justice which is an. Execution, YEAH

0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 2>i think about that.

0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:18.960
<v Speaker 3>TOO i was just actually going through all the still

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 3>photos from the trial and it really brought it. Home

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.520
<v Speaker 3>just to see the emotion from the friends and family

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Of denise in the, court reacting to all the, witnesses

0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:32.120
<v Speaker 3>and certainly Seeing Michael king's face there as the. Defendant

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 3>it brought it. Home but imagining living through reliving this horrific,

0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 3>crime which we will get, into and then you finally

0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:43.240
<v Speaker 3>get the guilty, verdict you finally get the sentencing where

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 3>he is sentenced to be, Executed but as you point,

0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:49.080
<v Speaker 3>out it's not. Over it, continues and it goes on

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 3>and on and, on and if you're committed to seeing this.

0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:55.560
<v Speaker 3>Through oftentimes family members do show up to every hearing

0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.400
<v Speaker 3>they show up to every court. Hearing they show up

0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 3>to make sure that they see this through to the.

0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:04.359
<v Speaker 2>End and the end is supposed to be. Tonight but

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:07.000
<v Speaker 2>this all started back In january of two thousand and.

0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:10.320
<v Speaker 2>Eight these, two as far AS i could, understand this was.

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 2>Random he drove by and saw her at her house

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.520
<v Speaker 2>with her kids at the. Time what was a baby?

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 3>One, yes. One she had a two year Old noah

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 3>and six month Old, adam and she was cutting the

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 3>hair on the front porch of her two year. Old

0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:33.120
<v Speaker 3>and that he was apparently driving by looking for an easy,

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 3>target and he Saw denise on the porch cutting her

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:38.280
<v Speaker 3>young son's hairy.

0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Man life is just, unfair, right this the randomness of

0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:43.479
<v Speaker 2>life and crime and something like. This she was doing,

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.440
<v Speaker 2>nothing was nothing you could tell this woman to do

0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:48.239
<v Speaker 2>any differently that wouldn't have put her in the danger

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 2>just from some dude driving.

0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:50.080
<v Speaker 1>By.

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.480
<v Speaker 3>This, yeah you're literally in a neighborhood on your own

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.920
<v Speaker 3>front porch with your children in the middle of the.

0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:59.039
<v Speaker 3>Day they, say this was broad daylight In. Florida you

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 3>would never even be on guard or think you had

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 3>anything to look out. For and so he actually kidnapped

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 3>her at. Gunpoint he put the kids in the house

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.920
<v Speaker 3>and locked the door so they were. Safe he left them,

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 3>unharmed but he took her and tied her, up put

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.200
<v Speaker 3>her in the back of his, car and took. Off

0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 3>but the story gets even, like, oh it's so chilling

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:23.120
<v Speaker 3>when you see all the different times she could have been.

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 3>Saved there was a point in which she even got

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:27.800
<v Speaker 3>his phone and was able to call nine one.

0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 2>One this was AND i don't know if they got.

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 2>CLARITY i never heard that fully. Explained but, yeah she's

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 2>in the, vehicle she is held, captive she is tied,

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 2>up and again he did take. Her he, kidnapped took

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 2>her back to another, house left her, bound and raped this.

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Woman this was a, severe, awful awful, crime ends up

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 2>taking her somewhere shooting. Her DO i have it right

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 2>in the, face, Yes, okay so this is a horrific.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Crime the issue, here which has been front and center

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 2>robes is the behavior or the lack of proper training

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.239
<v Speaker 2>of nine one one dispatchers while all this was going,

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 2>on because there are at least two separate occasions. Robes while

0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.640
<v Speaker 2>she was in the trunk of this man's held. Captive

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 2>she has a cell phone trying to call nine one.

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 2>One someone else here's. Her another motorists also tries to

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 2>call nine one, one and for some reason authorities or

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 2>law enforcement at the time couldn't piece this together and

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>save this.

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:29.280
<v Speaker 3>One it's actually head. Scratching but there were a total

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 3>of four nine one one calls over a period of

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 3>a pretty short period of, time including yes From denise,

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 3>herself and then nine to one one call was played

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.080
<v Speaker 3>in court during the trial where you have this young.

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.520
<v Speaker 3>Woman so apparently he goes into this house to get

0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.680
<v Speaker 3>basically a shovel to bury, her and this is just

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 3>so she has a quick moment she's tied, up she

0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:51.439
<v Speaker 3>manages to get her for his, phone dials nine one

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 3>one and, says, please my name Is. Denise i'm married

<v Speaker 3>to a beautiful husband AND i just want to see

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.640
<v Speaker 3>my kids. Again so she ends up having to drop the,

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.320
<v Speaker 3>phone leaves it connected to the nine one one operator

0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:04.000

<v Speaker 3>goes on and the dispatcher is asking her for her,

<v Speaker 3>name her, location what her address. Is she obviously can't,

0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:24.240
<v Speaker 3>talk and while this is going, on someone else's calling

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 3>nine one. One they see her in the back of

0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:29.680
<v Speaker 3>the car bank. Screaming someone else called heard her. Screaming

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 3>this is just a mind boggling to know that people

0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:36.439
<v Speaker 3>are giving the description of the car where it, is

0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:40.600
<v Speaker 3>and somehow there was a disconnect and police who were

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.280
<v Speaker 3>actively searching for her weren't connected with the nine one

0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 3>one dispatchers who were getting these calls describing the scene

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 3>about what was happening and where she.

0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Was it's, LOOK i it's hard to. CRITICIZE i know

0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:58.840
<v Speaker 2>it's complicated stuff law. Enforcement this is, complicated but broke

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 2>from the from the standpoint of you've got at least

0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:04.920
<v Speaker 2>a six minute. Call we've seen this scene in movies

0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:07.160
<v Speaker 2>plenty of, times have we, not, ye someone calls for

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.319
<v Speaker 2>help and needs to try to give us say something

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 2>about What the argument is that the nine to one

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 2>one operator wasn't trained well enough and didn't understand well

0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 2>enough what that emergency situation was and to get the

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.800
<v Speaker 2>proper people involved and to connect. Dots you got this

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:24.560
<v Speaker 2>many nine to one one. Calls nobody has pieced. Together

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>these have come together in pretty quick, secession and they're

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.400
<v Speaker 2>talking about the same thing and describing the same. Car

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.880
<v Speaker 2>we have an, emergency all hands on, deck there is

0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:38.200
<v Speaker 2>someone in imminent danger and. Robes i'm not criticizing BECAUSE

0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.480
<v Speaker 2>i wasn't, there but plenty of others criticized that this

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:42.680
<v Speaker 2>was not handled well and something needed to be.

0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 3>Done, yes there WERE i believe three different dispatchers involved

0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 3>from the same county taking in these phone, calls and

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:52.840
<v Speaker 3>the fact that nothing was coordinated and no usable information

0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.440
<v Speaker 3>was related to police who were actively searching for her

0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.800
<v Speaker 3>led to significant. Change when we come, back we will

0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:03.160
<v Speaker 3>talk about What lee's family has done in her honor

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:06.840
<v Speaker 3>and how they have made life saving changes to make

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 3>sure something like this never happens. Again and welcome back

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:23.240
<v Speaker 3>everyone to this episode Of amy AND. Tj there is

0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 3>Another florida execution happening. Tonight it is the fourth of

0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:33.080
<v Speaker 3>the year For, florida the thirty second execution For Governor.

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:38.960
<v Speaker 3>DeSantis but this story was something that captivated the country

0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 3>nearly twenty years ago When Denise lee called nine one

0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.440
<v Speaker 3>one for help after she had been kidnapped and, raped

0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 3>was bound and was fearing for her. Life she along

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.760
<v Speaker 3>with several other people who witnessed her in the back

0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:54.320
<v Speaker 3>of this car calling nine one, one and yet police

0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 3>only found her body two days, later naked in a

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.640
<v Speaker 3>shallow gray they've fatally shot in the. Face and, so,

0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 3>yes her family wanted. Change they sued the. COUNTY i

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:10.080
<v Speaker 3>believe they got around one point two million. Dollars but

0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 3>they founded The denise Amber Lee foundation to improve nine

0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:19.719
<v Speaker 3>one one training and it. Changed it changed how nine

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.559
<v Speaker 3>one one dispatchers are trained in the state Of. Florida

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:26.040
<v Speaker 3>it changed their mode of. Operation so trying to do

0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:29.480
<v Speaker 3>their best to make sure this kind of scenario could

0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:30.120
<v Speaker 3>never happen.

0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:33.080
<v Speaker 2>Again, yeah and they passed legislation down there In florida

0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:35.920
<v Speaker 2>specifically with her name in her, honor to make sure

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 2>something like, this like you, Said, robes nine to one

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:42.120
<v Speaker 2>one operator was this was sure mistakes and things get

0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.440
<v Speaker 2>made all the. Time this was such a glaring what

0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 2>the hell when the story was laid out that that

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 2>was very difficult for the, family you, know to deal

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.960
<v Speaker 2>with knowing that there were who's to say if she

0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 2>could have been ultimately. Saved but, Man, robes there was a,

0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:01.560
<v Speaker 2>chance there was a, chance given all that was going.

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.720
<v Speaker 2>On she called nine one one and begging somebody please

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.760
<v Speaker 2>save my, life and she. Doesn't, yeah that's.

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.520
<v Speaker 3>Tough yet one of the drivers who, called who was,

0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:13.280
<v Speaker 3>following actually was on the phone with nine one one

0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 3>for nine. Minutes you start thinking about this and it's

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 3>hard to imagine how this. Happened BUT i thought it

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 3>was really chilling what her husband. Said he, said nine

0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:25.560
<v Speaker 3>one one dispatchers are the first. Link if they don't,

0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.440
<v Speaker 3>work nothing else. Does if you think about, that we

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 3>all know if we were in some scary emergency. SITUATION

0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:35.880
<v Speaker 3>i always, think you know, what as long AS i

0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.360
<v Speaker 3>have my, PHONE i can call nine one. One that

0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:41.920
<v Speaker 3>is your connection to, Safety that is your connection to,

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:45.000
<v Speaker 3>help that is your connection to staying. Alive and if

0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:47.080
<v Speaker 3>that doesn't, Work he's, right nothing else.

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Does we've seen a lot and we do watch a

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.680
<v Speaker 2>lot of, cases crime stories covered a lot of, them

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:55.080
<v Speaker 2>and nine one one calls come into play and quite

0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:59.000
<v Speaker 2>frankly and quite often really impressed by one how cool they,

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.360
<v Speaker 2>are how professional they are in the midst of. Chaos

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.800
<v Speaker 2>and we were just doing this yesterday with The Corey richands.

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:06.600
<v Speaker 2>Trial they were playing a nine to one one call

0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:11.959
<v Speaker 2>that person was working so hard to save a man's

0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:15.319
<v Speaker 2>life by trying to get someone to help, him which

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.360
<v Speaker 2>the wife ultimately. Didn't but still it makes me think

0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:21.440
<v Speaker 2>of it because we were just having this conversation about how

0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 2>excellent nine when one operators are sometimes.

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:27.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh my, god they are calm when everyone else is,

0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:32.480
<v Speaker 3>panicking and, like they save lives every single. Day this

0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 3>is just an example of when things went wrong and

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:39.200
<v Speaker 3>one of the changes that was. Made nine one one

0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:42.960
<v Speaker 3>operators now must have more than two hundred hours of,

0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 3>training and so they increased the training hours they increased

0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 3>just their ability to react and to know how to

0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:52.520
<v Speaker 3>HANDLE i cannot imagine that job where little you have

0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:56.480
<v Speaker 3>to distinguish between print calling what's a real, emergency what's?

0:14:56.520 --> 0:15:01.120
<v Speaker 3>Not making those decisions in real time or seconds. Matter

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:06.120
<v Speaker 3>that is a tough job THAT i cannot imagine the

0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:10.200
<v Speaker 3>stress level waking up and going to bed each day

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 3>and night knowing that lives hang in the balance based

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:13.400
<v Speaker 3>on your.

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:16.840
<v Speaker 2>REACTION i give them credit because the other part they

0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:18.920
<v Speaker 2>have to do sometimes. Rope they have to be kind

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 2>and caring but. Firm, right somebody's, Crying BUT i need

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.480
