1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: We are here. Everybody here, everybody ready to go. I 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: am pulsing, oh with antibodies. Today I got two vaccine shots. 3 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: I got COVID shot and I got the flu shot. 4 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: Oh so you were finally told at home you had 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: to get the shot the home health director. Yeah, that's 6 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: the last time I asked, because Deborah and I have it. 7 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: You were like waiting for your health director. That's try. 8 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: I only go by the health director's recommendations or threats down. 9 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: The director came down this morning. Actually, are you getting 10 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: spooked by the sea? The health director getting spooked by 11 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: these crazy headlines and the also gunt of times exploding cases. 12 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: Health director is easily spooked at all times. Yeah, I 13 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: would have thought a month ago, but held out to this. Well, 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: you know, the pressure began building a month ago and 15 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: I just right, yeah, so uh oh. And finally the 16 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: studies came out on whether this new booster works on 17 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: human beings and it and it does because up till 18 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: now they only had mice. Yeah. Well, actually they had 19 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: humans a month or two ago. I think when I 20 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: got my booster, a study came out. They looked at 21 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: the first I don't know how many thousands of humans. 22 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: It took it and was doing well, they thought. Then 23 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: I saw another story says it's not really making any difference. 24 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: I don't. Doesn't always ended up this way. I'm loaded 25 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: with antibodies either way. You got the flu vaccine, you 26 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: said too, I got. I got the covid in the 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: left arm and the flu in the right arm. I 28 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: reversed it. But that's what I did. I got a 29 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 1: month ago. What's that I go that way? I guess. 30 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: Oh wait, No, I did get the covid and the 31 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: left arm because I thought that would be right because 32 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 1: I'm right handed. She asked me that, and I thought 33 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: that one might be more potent. So then I took 34 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: the flu shot in the right arm. Yeah, I did 35 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: the same as you. So, yeah, and I had no 36 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: I had no real which is a bummer. No reaction, real, 37 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: no reaction. Yeah, you're kind of partly hoping help. I 38 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: get completely wiped out here and I'm just going to 39 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: go sleep the right today. Stories I read says that 40 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: is a sign your immune system has kicked in and 41 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: the vaccine could be more effective. Yes, if you have 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: real like you get really tired and run down. All 43 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 1: I had was, you know, a little bit of pain 44 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: at the injection site, but not much. Well that's what 45 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: I have today. Well, tomorrow's the tell. Yeah, it settles 46 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: into your body here during the day and overnight, we'll 47 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: see what you're like tomorrow. I only I only had 48 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: out of all the shots, I got this the fifth one. Now, 49 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: fifth COVID shot me too, And he acts like he's 50 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: the only one in the world. Shots between us. Something 51 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: out of work, right, this, But Deborah Mark, this is 52 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: the John Cobelt world. It's not really news until he's 53 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 1: affected personally, and then it's like a big deal. That's right. Yeah, 54 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: that's right. I only know by what I see and 55 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: experienced myself. What it took you long enough? I mean, 56 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: Ken and I we did it a while ago. You're 57 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: if you want to engage in risky behavior based on 58 00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: mouse studies, that's it's a free country. But here directors 59 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: driven by the headlines that it's a scary time with 60 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: the triple demic, that you got the flu, you got covid, 61 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: you got r s V. Yeah, do they have a 62 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: vaccine for that? Well, it's moll see children, right, I 63 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: don't think it affects adults much or well, you constantly 64 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: accused me of being like a child, so maybe I 65 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: think there is. Actually I don't know if there is 66 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: one for infants. I don't know. I didn't keep up 67 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: with that story because I never got the monkey pox vaccine. 68 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: So no, no, it's the that's gone away. It's the mpox. 69 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: Yeah right, they officially called it mpox. I call it 70 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: monkey P. Just reverse what they did, and it's monkey P. 71 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: Monkey What do you mean? You got monkey P wear 72 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: on you? All right? So you think you're gonna make 73 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: it through the show? Is? Yeah, well I'll see I 74 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: so far, no side effects. I only had one of 75 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: the shots. One of the COVID shots give me pretty 76 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: unpleasant side effects for a few hours, but only one 77 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: out of five so far. That's what happened to me 78 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: a year or two, two or three years ago. I 79 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: took the singles vaccine along with another one I forget 80 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: which one that really knocked me out. The next day 81 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I went to take a nap and I 82 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: thought I woke up like two hours later and I wasn't. 83 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: Just really miserable, But my COVID vaccines haven't really Sometimes 84 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: I wonder is there a limit damage stuff? Your body 85 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: can take ah a p there is I you know 86 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: what they had? Remember that guy there was that guy 87 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: for what country was in Australia took like twenty shots 88 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: in one day because he was making money off of 89 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: it and nothing happened. He was filling in for PA. 90 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: He survived. And then some guy in Italy got a 91 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: bunch of vaccines by accident to an older guy, but 92 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: he survived. It's just antibodies. It's just annybodies kicking in. 93 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: So not a big deal. But all right, so we're 94 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: all up to date in our shots that we can 95 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: continue to we can continue the show. Yeah, because as 96 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: far as I can see, because this made national news 97 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: the other day, Los Angeles was considering indoor moleskin. There's 98 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: a number of COVID cases urges and hospitals are filling up. 99 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: It would be heard this how many times of the 100 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: last three years. Why is it always Los Angeles? Yeah? 101 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: I thought, well, how come they even remember Natty Santa 102 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: Clara County, Santa Clara County, California, where they made al 103 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: Michaels were a mask at a football game that nobody 104 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: was there. They were upset with a restaurant for playing 105 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: music with lyrics? Are they doing this? Are they reacting 106 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: like this? Or is it just La County again? Not 107 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: hearing this about any other place in the nation that's 108 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: moving towards into our asking mandates and nobody reading the 109 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: news ever, stops and says, m why are they the 110 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: only ones? Can't we reassign Barbara Ferrera to Beijing a Moscow? 111 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: I think she'd be much more at home. They're much 112 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: more comfortable. Probably you haven't even higher position. Oh, China 113 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: would be the place for chi New Zealand. New Zealand 114 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: was also, that's right, go to some Oh did you 115 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: see the story in New Zealand yesterday? No? Oh. They 116 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: they've decided to hold hearings to examine their approach to 117 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: battle in COVID, to see whether or not, basically that 118 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: they went too far, that they're fascists. They want to 119 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: examine everything they did with all their lockdowns and all 120 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: their crazy ideas about zero COVID, to look step back 121 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: and say, yeah, maybe we were a little over the top. Yeah, 122 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: I saw that the Chinese leader's popularity apparently he's taking 123 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 1: a big hit, even in China. Yeah, even in China. 124 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: They're getting sick of this, but it sounds like those 125 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: protests have tamped down. The one that was a story 126 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: like two weeks ago that people were tired of the 127 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: lockdowns and they were all those people were reassigned. Yeah, 128 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: they've they've been put it in labor camps. No, they're 129 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: called re education camps. Camps. Yeah, that's what they do 130 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: with the wee gres. Yes, they're they're being taught. Now, 131 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: just how dangerous COVID is. Oh, it's not appropriate to protest, 132 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: all right, when we're gonna come back. This shouldn't surprise you. 133 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: And it took a couple of weeks to find out. 134 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: Remember the Virginia police officer who catfished the fifteen year 135 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 1: old girl out on riverside killed three of her family members. 136 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: The house was caught on fire. He eventually was caught, 137 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: but he killed himself. The teen is okay, and you're thinking, boy, 138 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: that's a pretty extreme event. He drives all the way 139 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: across the country to hook up with a fifteen year 140 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: old girl that he got online because he betrayed himself 141 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: as a seventeen year old, and then he kills the 142 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: family and then he kills himself. He's thirty one. I'm 143 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: sorry twenty eight There must have been something that happened before. Well, 144 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: there was a trigger event. Why did we tell you 145 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: what happened in twenty sixteen with this guy which remarkably 146 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: seemed to have gotten pasted police in Virginia, both the 147 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: state police and a sheriff's department when they hired him. 148 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: Really weird. We'll talk about what it is coming up, 149 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: Johnny ken KF I Am six forty live everywhere in 150 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app. They were always collected Moist line calls. 151 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: You can use the iHeartRadio app. You can talk back 152 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: to the show using the microphone icon or call the 153 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: old toll free number one eight seven seven Moist eighty 154 00:07:55,320 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: six one eight seven seven six six four seven eight six. Well, 155 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: it was just around Thanksgiving that story out on Riverside 156 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: or a guy who was a police officer in Virginia. 157 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: Twenty eight year old Austin Lee Edwards drove all the 158 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: way across the country to hook up with a fifteen 159 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: year old girl he met online, portraying himself as a 160 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: seventeen year old. Well, what a disaster. He killed her mother, 161 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: killed her grandparents, took off with her. Eventually the police 162 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: tracked him down in San Bernardino County. They thought he 163 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: was killed in a shootout with police, but they determined 164 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: later he actually shot himself. The girl was found alive 165 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: and uninjured. Now, when you hear a story like that, 166 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: because it's so awfully over the top and wow, two 167 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: police agencies in Virginia hired this man. He was first 168 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: a sheriff's deputy. He actually got out of the academy 169 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: there but resigned not long after. And then he took 170 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: a job, sorry, he was the state police, and then 171 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: he took a job the Sheriff's department. But there's always 172 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: a backstory to this. One hundred percent of the time 173 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: when somebody does goes on a rampage like this, there 174 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: were signs and incidents long before, almost without fail, and 175 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: that's true in this case. When you hear this, you 176 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: want to you're not to wonder how he got hired 177 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: by two police agencies in Virginia. These The Times got 178 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: through a public records request something that happened in twenty sixteen. 179 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: It was right after the Super Bowl. The date was 180 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: February seventh, twenty sixteen. Apparently, this man, Austin Lee Edwards, 181 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: watched the game with his father, Christopher Roy Edwards. The 182 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: older guy says they each drank two beers. Anyway, later 183 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: that night, if everybody always has two beers, yeah, I know, 184 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: whatever by police, two glasses of wine because I think 185 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: that's socially acceptable and what people think. Oh, you shouldn't 186 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: be too drunk from two beers. He's Later that night, 187 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: the father wakes up and he hears something from the 188 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: bathroom and that's a Apparently the son who is Austin 189 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: is the son who had locked the door. So the 190 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: father uses a screwdriver to get the bathroom door open, 191 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: and he sees his son with a cut on his hand. 192 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: He later told police a father did he didn't know 193 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 1: what he used to harm himself, but the knives and 194 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: a small hatchet. We're nearby. He's trying to hack off 195 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: his hand or his wrist or I don't know, a 196 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: cut in his hand. I'm usually to kill yourself. You 197 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: cut your right your wrist, your your artery, your wrist. Yeah, 198 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: but I mean a hatchet that'll take off, you know, 199 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: the whole hand, A small hatchet. So he calls for 200 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: an ambulance. His son goes into the bedroom, sits on 201 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: the bed and according to the father. He has a 202 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 1: pocket or a folding knife in his hands and is 203 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: repeatedly opening it and closing it. Once the father told 204 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: his son that an ambulance was on the way now. 205 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: Austin tried to leave the apartment, but the father subdued 206 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: him in the kitchen. Emergency medical technique were first to respond. 207 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: They discovered that the son was being taken down by 208 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: the father. They were disturbed by Edward's resistance to medical 209 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: aid and attempts to escape his father's control. When police 210 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: got there, they found the home did have a large 211 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 1: presence of blood inside, and the son continued to resist everybody, 212 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: refusing to let EMTs treat his injury, continuing to try 213 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: to escape his father. One of the officers commanded Edwards 214 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: to show his hands, after which Edwards began screaming and 215 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: threatening everyone. So then they took out the taser. Yeah, 216 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: well he'd been his dad several times. Yes, dad bite 217 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: arm bite marks on his hand on his arms, right, 218 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: So Edwards began yelling at them to tase him. The 219 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: father pleaded for the officer not to tasee his son, 220 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: that he could subdue him. After getting him to the ground, 221 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: the officer and a member of the MT crew be 222 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 1: able to handcuff Edwards and strap him to a stretcher. 223 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: He was transport to a local hospital with a serious 224 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: cut to his left hand, and he said he was 225 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: going to try to kill himself the moment he was free, 226 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: and by the way, he would also kill his father, 227 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: and as John said, he ended up having The father 228 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: had bite marks on both his arms from his son, 229 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: but didn't want any medical treatment. He didn't know why 230 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: his son harmed himself, but it could have been he 231 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: had problems in a relationship with his girlfriend. Well you know, 232 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: and that's what I think was happening here in every side, 233 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: and he has extreme reaction. He was getting rejected by 234 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: the girl in Virginia at that time, so he started 235 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: cutting himself up. And he probably was getting rejected by 236 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: this girl here. Maybe he showed up unannounced and yeah, 237 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: the story was he parked his car down the street 238 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: and he waited for them to come home from somewhere 239 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: and I think, yeah, as soon as they came home, 240 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: he's all antsy. He wants to meet his girl. There's 241 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: reports he may have already met her before, but probably 242 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 1: the parents were like, what the hell get out of 243 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: here going anywhere near her. He was obsessed and he 244 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: ambushed them. And he still don't know how he killed them, 245 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: do we now? Except there was not a gun. I 246 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: think Steve Gregory said he did not shoot them. I 247 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: don't know how, but they were found dead just inside 248 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: the hallway of the house, which then caught fire. But 249 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: somehow the state police in Virginia and the Sheriff's departed 250 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: Sheriff's County sheriff hired him. They they well, of course 251 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: one of these groups claiming they did a thorough background check. 252 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: No you didn't. That would be the Washington County Sheriff's office. Oh, 253 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: they did a thorough background check. Well, because they put 254 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: him away for a short time, they did. They use 255 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: one of those temporary detention orders, right, so they transferred 256 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: him to a hospital for a mental health evaluation. That 257 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: ought to pop up when you're looking at somebody's police application, 258 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: and he was later transported to something called Ridge View Pavilion, 259 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: a psych facility in Bristol, Virginia, according to the tension order. 260 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: I wonder if between the father and maybe some other people, 261 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: they just made this go away. But it was in 262 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: the records. The Times got it, But you have to 263 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: go why would the Virginia State Police have found it? 264 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: Where where does it end up? Because it doesn't seem 265 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: to be an arrest. It seems to be a mental 266 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: health breakdown. So where does that information go? If he 267 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: had an arrest record, it would have showed up right away. 268 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: But if if they're taking somebody who's going crazy and 269 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: putting them in a hospital for a few days, where 270 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: does that go? It says here. Two agencies said none 271 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: of edwards prior employers had disclosed issues about him. The 272 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: State Police said the agency conducted a thorough background check. 273 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: So you still you'd be able to find the emergency 274 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: custody order in the temporary detention order. I would think 275 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: you could if you really Maybe they don't look. You 276 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: have to go look at every direction, and maybe you're right, 277 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: Maybe they're just looking for a criminal record, but they 278 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: weren't looking for anything dealing with the It also has 279 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: to be made available by the lunkheads who have custody 280 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: those records. Who knows what local agency in the county 281 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: has those records? And then it goes you're going back 282 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: now five years. In the case of the county, I 283 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: remember that was one of the one of the killers 284 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: I think in um where was it, South Carolina? And 285 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: he had had some kind of criminal case, but one 286 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: one jurisdiction didn't communicate with the other jurisdiction, and he 287 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: was able to buy a gun and kill a bunch 288 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: of people and he should not have been allowed to 289 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: have the gun. They sold it to him because whatever 290 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: incident he was involved with didn't show up on the 291 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: record because there was no communication between the jurisdictions. That 292 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: stuff happens all the time. I mean, Steve has always 293 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: been in here. As you know, we try to find 294 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: out the background of some bad guy who went on 295 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: a rampage. It's like, well and nobody's revealing any information, 296 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: and you can't find out what's going on in other 297 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: counties right away. There's only two questions here. Did the 298 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: Virginia State Police find out about this psychhold on this 299 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: guy back in twenty sixteen, and if they did, they 300 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: decided it was not a bar to him joining the 301 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: police agency, Or did they not find it or not 302 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: look for it, or is it written off as girl 303 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: broke up with him. He was drinking and I had 304 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: a bad reaction he got trying to kill himself and 305 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: his father. Right, we AlterNet bad reactions from a breakup 306 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: and drinking, but when you start moving to weapons and 307 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: threatening to kill people in yourself and hat and in 308 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: the end he did kill himself over this catfish story, 309 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: so you can see it was already part of his makeup, 310 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: that this is how he deals with romantic failures.

She has said 334 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: more crazy things out loud than any union leader I 335 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: can remember, and that is tough competition because most of 336 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 1: them are nuts. But when they finally returned to the 337 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: classroom and we got to look at how far behind 338 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: they got, we found out that LAUSD got really far behind. 339 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: It's already a very poor academic school district, but it's 340 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: suffered even more because of the lockdown and the stupid 341 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: zoom school. Can you imagine disappearing for a year and 342 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: a half from your job, a year and a half, 343 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: refusing to work except occasionally on a video screen, and 344 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: after that year and a half is over, you come 345 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: back and say I want a twenty percent raise. I 346 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: am being mistreated. This isn't fair. But meantime, the children 347 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: lost a year and a half of their education and 348 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 1: a lot of are never going to make it up. 349 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: It's almost like they've been brain damaged by the teachers Union. 350 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: The abuse was so bad by the teachers Union, these 351 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: kids brains suffered permanent development deficits. Well, they held three 352 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,479 Speaker 1: rallies yesterday, United Teachers Los Angeles and John's right. They 353 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: want twenty percent over two years. They want smaller class sizes. 354 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 1: They're always calling for that, although on that front, enrollment 355 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 1: is dropping, so they make it their West share take. 356 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: You know what, the families are taking care of that 357 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: because not too many years ago the enrollment was over 358 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: six hundred thousand, and now it's in the four hundred thousands, 359 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: so about a third of the families have bolted and 360 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: have not been replaced. They also, this is the part 361 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: about the kids academic performance. They want to steeply reduce 362 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: standardized testing. Of course, that way you can cover up 363 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: your failure because they get embarrassed every year. Every year, 364 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,959 Speaker 1: LA has some of the worst scores in the nation. 365 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: Huge percentages of the kids can't read at the level 366 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: of they should, can't do math at the level they should, 367 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 1: and instead this teaches un and is trying to stuff 368 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: in more woke garbage courses. Yeah, this is another socialist 369 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: democrat communist organization. Yeah. Do you know in their demands 370 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: they also want more electric school buses and solar panels installed, 371 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: and they want to solve the problems of homelessness. This 372 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: is actually in their whole proposal. They won't teach the 373 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: kids how to read, they won't teach the kids math, 374 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: but they're obsessed with every trendy, silly, socialist, woke policy. 375 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: Now that's what they're hung up on here, and who 376 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: cares what they think? Honestly, I would let them strike. 377 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: I would just tell them to go screw off. I really, 378 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: because what's going to happen. The kids aren't getting caught anyway, 379 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: Just clear the decks hire freelancers hire anybody off the street. Well, 380 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: what do you need this crowd for. That's my fantasy 381 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: is that one day a school board a schoolshipper inted 382 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: and says, you know what, we're done with you at 383 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: the end of the contract. You know, go bail hay 384 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: at a farm somewhere. You don't get to work anymore. Here. 385 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: You're all crazy and selfish and cruel. There's no other 386 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: way to describe them. There is a parents' group and 387 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: one of the members is maybe should get her on 388 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: Christy Pisica. She put it away, she goes. Families are 389 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: tired of the politics and the endless chaos. Enrollment is plummeting. 390 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: By the time the bickering settles, there may not be 391 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: enough students left for LAUSD to remain solvent. That's another 392 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: reason why this new superintendent Carvallo is hedging, because he says, 393 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: if we lock ourselves into these kinds of wage increases, 394 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: we're looking at tougher times. We already know that the 395 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: California and this is where they get out of their money. 396 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: The California state budget is looking at a deficit the 397 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: next year, perhaps of highest twenty five billion dollars, so 398 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: they know that they're probably going to get cut back. 399 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: And he's got to think about that. They produce a 400 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: bad product. There's no point in arguing whether they should 401 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 1: make a five or ten or twenty percent more or less. 402 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The product stinks. The kids can't read 403 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: and they can't do math, and the teachers waste a 404 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: lot of time on woke garbage. So what's the point 405 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: of this. What are we gonna argue. We're gonna argue 406 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: percentage increases, and the testing is abysmal, So of course 407 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: they want to get rid of the testing because it 408 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: proves how bad the teachers are at their job. They're 409 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: being offered eight percent right now, they want twenty. The 410 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: offer is eight. They don't deserve eight. They don't deserve anything. 411 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: They so far apart they are, there should be mass 412 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: firings in a rational world, if if I was king 413 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: of the city, it's like the kids learned nothing and 414 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: you walked out on them for a year and a half. 415 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: So hit the road, out the door. They want to end. 416 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: They want to freeze school closures, which even this Times 417 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: writer was his Howard Bloom. He tried to write a 418 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: fairly neutral story, but it's kind of sympathetic, which are 419 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: increasingly going to be hard to avoid as enrollment shrinks. 420 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: And of course, to end the over policing and criminalization 421 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: of students in school. This is another outfit that favors 422 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: no school police. All right, So they want empty classrooms 423 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: with a teacher sitting and teaching empty seats because they 424 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: want to they want increased teachers, and they don't want 425 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: schools to close. So I guess they just want to 426 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: tea Well, of course that's what they had for a 427 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: year and half. Teach your nice job, isn't it. Teach 428 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: your seven every day and just sit there and there's 429 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: nobody in the classroom and just you know, sign off 430 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: and go home. They sat around in a living room 431 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: with the zoom screen on screen on and I know 432 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,959 Speaker 1: firsthand that some of these teachers are just playing videos 433 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: on the zoom screen. They weren't even trying. Bloom Rights. 434 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: The union bargaining platform also calls for the district to 435 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: push for federal housing vouchers to support LAUSD families and 436 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: to convert vacant LAUSD property into housing for low income families. 437 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: Then he writes, although it's challenging, challenging to see how 438 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: these elements could be enforced to teacher's contract. Yeah, no, kidding, 439 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: genius for all these big social changes. He says, it's challenging. 440 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: It's challenging. Is the word you use, bloom Oh, it's challenging. No, 441 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: how about the word is impossible? You can't you can't 442 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: enforce housing requirements through a teacher's contract. Good lord, I've 443 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: never seen every day there's new insanity. Where does this 444 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: whole crazed woke movement go? They can't. They keep topping 445 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: themselves every day, but there's got to be one point 446 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: where they hit the wall. This is insanity. Well, I 447 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 1: don't know how long this negotiations going to go on, 448 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: but we're probably gonna listen to this for a while. 449 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 1: As this crowd takes to the streets asking for a 450 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: raise after a big failure, this secially myer cruise, the 451 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: President says, when you can't afford even to live where 452 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 1: you work, we got a problem, y'all. Y'all, now you 453 00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: know what, try to be dramatic, move get out. You 454 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: can't afford it, get out? Then. Yeah, it's allegedly a 455 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: teacher shortage even nationwide, so they're probably trying to take 456 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: advantage of that too. All Right, we got more coming up. 457 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: It's the John and Ken Show on KFI AM six 458 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: forty live everywhere the iHeartRadio app Well, a small victory, 459 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: but a victory nonetheless in court for those who were 460 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: still trying to affect a recall of the Eli County 461 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: District attorney George Gascone. We covered this story yesterday. There 462 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: are prosecutors people behind the recall who meticulously go into 463 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: the Eli County registrar offices several days a week to 464 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 1: sit there and comb through the signatures and to see 465 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: if they can come up with problems and mistakes made 466 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: by the Eli County Registrar's office in declining that recall 467 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 1: and saying that it did not qualify for the ballot. 468 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: We'll tell you what the development is after the news 469 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: at three o'clock. Well, you knew this had to happen eventually. 470 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: Apple is being sued by two women who were victims 471 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: of air tag stalking, including one whose ex boyfriend hid 472 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: the device in the wheel of her car and another 473 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 1: who's a strange husband tractor by placing it in her 474 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: child's backpack. That's pretty creepy. Lauren Used from Texas is 475 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: one woman. The other woman only identifies herself as Jane Doe. 476 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: Lauren Use did file a class action suit against Apple, 477 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: alleging it was negligent in its creation and marketing of 478 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: the inexpensive tracking devices. Do you think the Apple executives, 479 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: even for five minutes, had a meeting that said do 480 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: you think creepers and stalkers would use this to track 481 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 1: their ex wives and girlfriends. Well, they said that their 482 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: stalker proof because they include chime notifications to inform Apple 483 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: device users whether or not there's an air tag within 484 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: thirty feet of them for an extended period of time. 485 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: But the one problem with that immediately is is what 486 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: if you have an Android phone and then you don't 487 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 1: have an Apple device that's half the nation, Then apparently 488 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: you have to use the app and then you have 489 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: to scan constantly because you're not going to get a notification, 490 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: but you can still figure out there's an air tag 491 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: near you. Well, that's right, So I go back to 492 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: my first question. They know that Android has half the 493 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: market share and that it's cumbersome for an Android user 494 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: to learn that there's a tracking device on them. Yes, 495 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: so I I mean these Apple geeks have no conscience 496 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: and get this. They also claim that the alert to 497 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: Apple users are inadequate because they would not be released 498 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: for a full seventy two hours after an AirTag was 499 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: in range. One of the lawyers said, put another way, 500 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: a victim could have been stalked for three days before 501 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 1: Apple alerted them of the potential danger right and killed 502 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: and the body dumped in the forest. So you have 503 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: to have an iPhone, an iPad or an iPad touch 504 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: that runs the iOS version fourteen point five or later 505 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: that in order to have this shime work on this sure. 506 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: And the thing is it forced you to keep track 507 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: of something that you don't have. This is this is 508 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: my objection here is that is that somebody else gets 509 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: an air tag and then drops it in your purse 510 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: or attaches it to your car, and you're supposed to 511 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: go out of the way to make sure that you 512 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: are connected to the system properly. Then how nuts is that? 513 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: I guess the response would be ninety percent of the 514 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: time it works to help people find missing items, all right, 515 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: so a few men I use it by tracking women. 516 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: But oh no, it pays. It definitely makes huge profits. 517 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: And they figure every once in a while, I'm sure 518 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: they thought this through that every once in a while, Hey, 519 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: somebody might get raped and murdered. There'll be a lawsuit 520 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: and that's the cost of doing this. Will just settle it. Yeah, yeah, 521 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: you know. It's it's like, when do you know how 522 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: much they go for these air tags? I don't know 523 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: I've never bought one, but you know, you want, you 524 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: know something I bought I think four of them, and 525 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: then they're lost in the house and I can't find them. 526 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: I need to set it. Oh, you need an air 527 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: tag to find the air tag. Yeah, yeah, you know, 528 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: they go, they went, They fell into a black hole. 529 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: But no, My our kitchen table is where my wife 530 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: does all the house business, right, and then there's a 531 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: bench near her seat, and it's got stacks and stacks 532 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: and stacks of books and paperwork, just all kinds of things. Right, 533 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: it's become a storage corner somewhere maybe there, maybe somewhere 534 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: else are the air tags, But I can't find them, 535 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: and I don't know how I can find them. Well, 536 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: here's the creepy story from the Texas woman use She 537 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: had recently ended a three month long relationship in August 538 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one, when her ex boyfriend began making 539 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: abusive posts on social media accounts and using fake accounts 540 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 1: to try to follow her private accounts. He soon started 541 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: calling her from block numbers and leaving threatening voicemails, according 542 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: to the lawsuit, ultimately leaving objects at her home. Well. 543 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: Fearing her safety, she decided to move in October of 544 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: that year, but she when she returned to her hotel, 545 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: she noticed she got a notification on her iPhone that 546 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: an unknown air tag was nearby. She attempted to engage 547 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: the feature, causing the air tag to beep, but could 548 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: only get it to work one time. She ultimately found 549 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: the air tag in the wheel well of the rear 550 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: passenger tire of her car.
