WEBVTT - Legally Brunette: Gabby Petito

0:00:01.400 --> 0:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Hi, everyone, Welcome to another episode of Legally Brunette. I'll

0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:09.640
<v Speaker 1>be your host Emily Simpson with my co host Shane Simpson,

0:00:10.119 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 1>and today we just want to do first some quick updates.

0:00:13.360 --> 0:00:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's just talk about Menendez quickly, because some things have

0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:19.840
<v Speaker 1>been happening there. First of all, their resentencing hearing is

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.639
<v Speaker 1>still scheduled from March twentieth and twenty first, but my

0:00:22.720 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 1>prediction is that it is going to get re scheduled

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>again because on Gavin Newsom's new podcast, he announced that

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:36.519
<v Speaker 1>he's going to use his power of commuting their sentence

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:39.160
<v Speaker 1>possibly maybe I don't know, but he's taking a look

0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:39.720
<v Speaker 1>into it.

0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 2>Why now, you know, he's just, oh, this is popular,

0:00:44.240 --> 0:00:45.880
<v Speaker 2>I could do this on my podcast.

0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 1>So basically, he's ordering the Pearl Board to do to

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>investigate whether the brothers would pose an unreasonable risks to

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>the public if they were released from prison. So what

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:56.680
<v Speaker 1>they're going to do is they'll do this investigation, they'll

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>come up with a report, and they're going to issue

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.639
<v Speaker 1>the report to Newsom but also to the judge and

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the court and the DA Hawkman. But I would assume

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 1>that report is not going to come out until after

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 1>March twentieth. So my guess would be that these hearings

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:13.679
<v Speaker 1>are not going to go forward on the twentieth. They're

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:17.840
<v Speaker 1>going to get re rescheduled until after this report comes out.

0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 1>But that's a good question because my first thought when

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:23.679
<v Speaker 1>I saw that Gavin Newsom was now getting involved in

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:26.319
<v Speaker 1>this case, where before he said he was kind of

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 1>going to let the DA and the court system and

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.839
<v Speaker 1>the judge handle it, I thought it looked like a.

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Pr Oh yeah, it totally is.

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>This is popular, I'll talk about it. I mean, let's

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 1>be honest. His image wasn't looking great after the fires.

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:42.480
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people were calling for his resignation and

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>saying he didn't handle that well. Now he has a

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 1>new podcast. His first episode of his podcast, he talks

0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.160
<v Speaker 1>about how he's going to possibly get involved in the

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Menindaz case. Also, I know the DA hawkman came forward

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.600
<v Speaker 1>and said that he what he did was he made

0:01:56.600 --> 0:02:00.559
<v Speaker 1>an informal response to their habeas petition. Now, the habeas

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 1>petition is a completely different avenue. It has nothing to

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>do with the resentencing, and he said that basically he

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't think that they should get a new trial. That

0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:11.079
<v Speaker 1>would be the habeat route, which I agree, but he

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.280
<v Speaker 1>was saying it was you know, he talks about how

0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:17.920
<v Speaker 1>they're telling a continuum of lies during their original trials,

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:19.799
<v Speaker 1>and then he doesn't believe that this new evidence that

0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 1>came forward anyway. So basically, it looks like the habeas

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:30.040
<v Speaker 1>route is not one that's really an avenue that's going

0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 1>to work for them. We're really going to have to

0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 1>focus on the recent while right the resentencing, or on

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Gavin Newsom, so we'll see what happens there. All right,

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>let's get into Normally. I don't like to do housewife

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff because I feel like there's so much going on

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.280
<v Speaker 1>with other legal situations. But let's talk about Karen Huger

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 1>just for a little bit. So eleven months after Karen

0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:54.160
<v Speaker 1>got drunk and crashed her Maserati into a street sign,

0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>the Montgomery County Circuit Court Judge Terrence McGahn sentenced Karen

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>Huger to two years in jail, one suspended. So she

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.080
<v Speaker 1>is going to have to spend a year in prison.

0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, do you think I think she'll probably

0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:09.040
<v Speaker 1>do six months maybe?

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 2>Or do you think I don't know how it works

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:16.080
<v Speaker 2>where she is. But this is not her first UI, correct, No,

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.079
<v Speaker 2>it's thing. It's important to know the history to know

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 2>if the sentencing is valid or not.

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 1>It is my understanding that this is her fourth Now

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 1>I believe that there's been long periods of time maybe

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>between the first second, and.

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:29.959
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't matter. But to me it doesn't.

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>Matter, no, I know. But also she was fined twenty

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>nine hundred dollars to go along with her her sentence.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 2>If you don't want learn your lesson because of a

0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.160
<v Speaker 2>two year sentence, maybe this twenty nine hundred dollars fine

0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 2>will teach you something. Probably costs tens of thousands of

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:47.960
<v Speaker 2>dollars of court time and everything, and all sudden they're like, oh,

0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 2>pay two thousand dollars.

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean the street sign she hit probably costs twenty

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 1>nine hundred dollars. So Karen was found guilty of DUI

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>negligent driving, failure to control speed to avoid a collision,

0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and failure to know to fight her change of address.

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.680
<v Speaker 1>She won't be allowed to drive for a year after

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>she's released, and if she violates probation, Hugre will be

0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 1>sent back to jail to serve the year of the

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 1>suspended time. This is Karen Huger's fourth d U.

0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:18.799
<v Speaker 2>I should take people's license away. Sorry, I mean once

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.159
<v Speaker 2>maybe after that, it's like, take the license away. You're

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 2>no good, you're a minister society.

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 1>You're as sorry you are.

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 2>She is she's gonna kill someone? Well she, I mean

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:30.760
<v Speaker 2>why why is now? Is she gonna be like, oh,

0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:32.280
<v Speaker 2>I should start being responsible?

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, she's lucky she didn't kill someone after four UI,

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>so you got really lucky that someone was not injured.

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 2>Or it's ridiculous. Remember my daughter, her fifth grade teacher,

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.159
<v Speaker 2>mister Clark, and when she got him, she was thrilled

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.000
<v Speaker 2>killed by a drunk driver mid school year.

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 1>I remember that.

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:55.680
<v Speaker 2>And it was not the drunk driver's first killing as

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.159
<v Speaker 2>a result of drunk driving.

0:04:57.200 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh you mean not only first offense, but they had

0:04:59.480 --> 0:04:59.919
<v Speaker 1>that someone?

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, wow, not okay, anyway.

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:10.359
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's move on. This is just an interesting

0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 1>story that's popped up in the media. I'm sure everyone's been.

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Thinking about it.

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.240
<v Speaker 1>And obsessing over it. But it is the death of

0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Gene Hackman. And I will tell you I find this

0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:24.480
<v Speaker 1>really interesting. Luke, my son, our son. I forgot our son,

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:30.359
<v Speaker 1>our son wanted to watch he had watched this before

0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>was Shane, but he wanted to watch the Poseidoniden.

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Adventure is an excellent movie, but not like the recent.

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.719
<v Speaker 1>He wanted to watch the nineteen seventy two versions.

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.799
<v Speaker 2>The only good one the one with Kurt Russell, though, okay,

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:44.359
<v Speaker 2>nobody So.

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:51.039
<v Speaker 1>Luke and I watched this the day before, and while

0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.440
<v Speaker 1>we were watching it, I remember thinking to myself, is

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Gene Hackman s so?

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 2>You asked me, and I told you. I said, well,

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:59.120
<v Speaker 2>he's ninety four. Last year a photo popped up of

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.920
<v Speaker 2>him being ninety four or he did not look healthy

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 2>at all. I said, I don't know he's gonna make

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:07.800
<v Speaker 2>it to ninety five. And then I didn't know you

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.080
<v Speaker 2>could put a curse on people. Apparently you're a.

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Witch, which thank you for telling our children that. Because

0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 1>I brought up Gene Hackman two days. I was inquiring

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 1>about his health and whether he was still alive, and

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.640
<v Speaker 1>then the story broke forty eight hours later that Gene

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Hackman and his wife and a dog were found dead.

0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 2>I love Gene Hackman, you do, Yeah, I do. I

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>think he's a great actor. That's partly why Pside Adventure

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:34.680
<v Speaker 2>is really good. I know people aren't here for a

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:37.800
<v Speaker 2>movie Becauseiden Venture has a great story.

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.599
<v Speaker 1>Okay. Gene Hackman and his wife, along with their dog,

0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>were found dead this week and circumstances officials have called

0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 1>suspicious enough to warrant a thorough investigation. So Hackman and

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 1>his wife's bodies were discovered by maintenance workers at their

0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:53.359
<v Speaker 1>home just before two pm. And that was the last Wednesday,

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>February twenty six. Now, I will tell you I was

0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.280
<v Speaker 1>looking into it again this morning, you see if there

0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:01.719
<v Speaker 1>was new information in this case, and I read that

0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:06.000
<v Speaker 1>according to his pacemaker, the last known activity on his

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 1>pacemaker was February seventeenth.

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.120
<v Speaker 2>Wow, So they are assuming just basically what date was

0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 2>he found Well, he.

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:14.720
<v Speaker 1>Was found dead February twenty.

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Six, so that would put him at nine days.

0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the last activity that was recorded on his pacemaker

0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>was February seventeenth, so they're assuming that that was most

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>likely when they died. So a caller told nine to

0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 1>one one that they could see two unconscious people through

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 1>a window but could not enter the home. According to

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>the call the cause of death of Hackman, who was

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 1>ninety five and his wife, Betsy, was sixty three, are

0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 1>not known at this time, but I did read that

0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:47.040
<v Speaker 1>they have ruled out carbon monoxide or any type of natural.

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:47.720
<v Speaker 2>Gas hold out.

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.640
<v Speaker 1>That's what I read on autopsy. I believe so because

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 1>the daughters, so Gene Hackman has daughters, had said in

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.640
<v Speaker 1>an interview that maybe it was carbon monoxide, and then

0:07:57.720 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I read that had been ruled out.

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 2>But they said that as a just a reasonable assumption

0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>based on them being found dead on the floor.

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:10.800
<v Speaker 1>And I guess how the investigation right. So the couple's

0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.800
<v Speaker 1>bodies were found in separate rooms and their secluded home.

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.840
<v Speaker 1>This is in Santa Fe. So Jeene Hackman was found

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 1>in at.

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Went if we died in our sleep, yeah, that's how.

0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Shane was on the couch with the TV on and

0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Emily had the phone on her face, laying in bed,

0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 2>dummy worms.

0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and the dogs were everywhere. So they were found

0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 1>in separate rooms. Gene Hackman was found in a mudroom

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 1>and they are assuming that he possibly fell because he

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>had his cane and like some sunglasses lying next to him,

0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.240
<v Speaker 1>so it looks like maybe he took a fall were

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:51.160
<v Speaker 1>next to them. But what is strange is his wife

0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:55.040
<v Speaker 1>was found in a bathroom with scattered pills. Now, also

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:58.000
<v Speaker 1>there were three dogs in the residence and one dog

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 1>was found in a closet inside a crate.

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I read that a lot of reports said, all, there's

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:06.079
<v Speaker 2>three dogs.

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:06.840
<v Speaker 1>There's three dogs.

0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 2>One was found dead inside a crate, so likely lacking

0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.720
<v Speaker 2>food and water. That would be my thought seven days

0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.400
<v Speaker 2>based on what we're reading. And then there were two

0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 2>other dogs found in the residents that were alive and

0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:21.240
<v Speaker 2>not in a crate or a closet, right.

0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 1>But I did read somewhere that one was in the bathroom,

0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>but I don't know if he was locked in the

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:26.840
<v Speaker 1>bathroom or they just found him wandering and he ended up.

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.800
<v Speaker 2>It would make more sense now that one's in a crate,

0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:32.760
<v Speaker 2>passed away because unfortunately neglected with food and water, and

0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>the others maybe were able to kind of fin for themselves,

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 2>and you know, right, they.

0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:39.200
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they dug through the trash or eat something in.

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.880
<v Speaker 2>A right, or maybe there's plenty of dog food out,

0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:42.560
<v Speaker 2>you know right.

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>So, Betsy, this is why her body showed obvious signs

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.960
<v Speaker 1>of death, body decomposition, bloating in her face, and mummification

0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 1>in both hands and feet. Hackman's body was then found

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:55.719
<v Speaker 1>on the ground near the kitchen. This is in the

0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:59.560
<v Speaker 1>mudroom in a similar condition, So the sheriff later said

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:01.880
<v Speaker 1>there was no indication that either of them had suffered

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:06.040
<v Speaker 1>injuries from a fall. So what is your thoughts? There's

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.480
<v Speaker 1>so many scenarios that go through my mind. First of all,

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 1>did he fall and when he hit the ground he

0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:14.360
<v Speaker 1>died because he's ninety five, so maybe the fall alone

0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:17.040
<v Speaker 1>was enough to kill him. Then his wife found him dead.

0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Then she freaked out because she can't live without him,

0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:20.480
<v Speaker 1>so she took pills.

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.560
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was odd when the daughters said that

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 2>they had not spoken to him for a few months.

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:26.640
<v Speaker 2>They didn't say it like it was a bad thing.

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 2>They said it like just as a matter of fact, like, oh,

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.199
<v Speaker 2>we haven't spoken to her dad in a few I'm like,

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>yeah'm spilling your dad in a few months, especially when

0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 2>your dad's gene Hackney. Okay, but I have a few

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 2>months my dad and a few months Okay, but yeah,

0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:38.679
<v Speaker 2>but that's a different scenario.

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:40.480
<v Speaker 1>But how do you know it's a different scenario.

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Well, I don't know because I'll tell

0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.960
<v Speaker 2>you because the daughters didn't say well, certainly I didn't

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 2>read everything, but assuming there was I just find not

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 2>talking to your parents after a few months when they're ninety.

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.960
<v Speaker 2>That old is a little odd. Now, if there was

0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 2>distance and they just had no close relationship, then okay,

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:01.000
<v Speaker 2>then that makes sense.

0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Well here's my thoughts as someone who is not

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:07.680
<v Speaker 1>very close with my dad and has a stepmom. My

0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:11.439
<v Speaker 1>sister and I have always had a lack of communication

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:14.080
<v Speaker 1>with my dad because my stepmom controls. We call her

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:18.199
<v Speaker 1>the gatekeeper. And when I was reading this about Gene Hackman,

0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:20.319
<v Speaker 1>I kind of felt like it was the same scenario

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.200
<v Speaker 1>because it said Hackman did not even have a phone

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.480
<v Speaker 1>or an email address, and his friends had to go

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 1>through his wife to get in touch with him. Now

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:28.720
<v Speaker 1>I understand that because that's what I have to do

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:29.560
<v Speaker 1>to talk to my dad.

0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I think your dad doesn't want doesn't care

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:33.880
<v Speaker 2>for technology.

0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:36.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's just that I think he doesn't

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 1>care for technology because he's.

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 2>Told okay, well, you know, being ninety five, maybe he

0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 2>just never really I heard from read what I read,

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.559
<v Speaker 2>which doesn't mean it's accurate that she kept him out

0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 2>of the spotlight, she kept him away from fans this

0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:55.320
<v Speaker 2>and that. Now, maybe he wanted that initially, she took

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 2>it too far. I don't know, but if she is

0:11:57.160 --> 0:12:01.680
<v Speaker 2>this gatekeeper, then him and dying and he wasn't a

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.600
<v Speaker 2>small guy. If he's if he fell and got hurt

0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:06.559
<v Speaker 2>and she couldn't care for him, and maybe she tried

0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:09.840
<v Speaker 2>to care for him and set herself couldn't and it

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:12.439
<v Speaker 2>just went south from there. I don't know. But there

0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:14.320
<v Speaker 2>was like a story that like when he was he

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.840
<v Speaker 2>was in the hospital a while ago, she would dress

0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:18.439
<v Speaker 2>up as a nurse and go in and out so

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.400
<v Speaker 2>people wouldn't think she was the wife. She was like hiding.

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Wait, but why wouldn't she want people to know that

0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:25.319
<v Speaker 1>she was the wife? I don't know.

0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:27.720
<v Speaker 2>It was like she was hiding from paparazzi or public.

0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh so she dressed up as a nurse in order

0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:30.960
<v Speaker 1>to visit him.

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:32.400
<v Speaker 2>Saying what I read was accurate.

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Well I don't know. So anyway, what are your

0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:37.720
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on this? Here's my question is she's in her sixties.

0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 1>She's thirty something year younger than him, So the chances

0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.360
<v Speaker 1>of her dying from a natural caused the same that

0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:48.000
<v Speaker 1>he died doesn't make sense. So that's where the suspicion

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:50.319
<v Speaker 1>comes in. Did she take pills because she couldn't live

0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:51.160
<v Speaker 1>without him.

0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:55.040
<v Speaker 2>Is there some outside the time will certainly tell?

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, but we're going to keep up with the story

0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.760
<v Speaker 1>because Shane, I did not know Shane had such a

0:12:58.800 --> 0:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>deep love.

0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:03.920
<v Speaker 2>So like The Heist is a really good movie, the

0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:08.440
<v Speaker 2>French Connection, he plays Popeye Doyle, really good car chasing there,

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:12.200
<v Speaker 2>he's you know, he's great. I think his Lex Luthor

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:13.800
<v Speaker 2>role was was terrible.

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm glad that you you do give him credit

0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:21.000
<v Speaker 1>words due? Okay, So let's move on to the stream

0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:22.599
<v Speaker 1>measures with you.

0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.679
<v Speaker 2>You what's his name? You great?

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, good, thank you?

0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:28.240
<v Speaker 2>It was really good.

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>We are now legally Brunette and we do movie reviews

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:42.480
<v Speaker 1>at the same time. Let's move on to the murder

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 1>of Gabby Patito. Now, I when this case came out,

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:47.480
<v Speaker 1>did you follow it at all?

0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely? You did, just just like daily what was on

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:51.560
<v Speaker 2>the news.

0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I did not. I know, I didn't. I remember

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:57.120
<v Speaker 1>briefly hearing things about it, but I really didn't know

0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a lot of details about it. I didn't know what happened.

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know. I didn't know a lot about it.

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:05.080
<v Speaker 1>But I did watch the Netflix special, which is on

0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Netflix right now.

0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Now I know everything.

0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:10.720
<v Speaker 1>There's no, no, But I did watch the Netflix series

0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was so invested in it that I then

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:17.679
<v Speaker 1>went outside and I googled more things, I did more research,

0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I read more things. So anyway, guys, I'm excited. We're

0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:23.400
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about Gabby Patito today. So if you

0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.280
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen the Netflix special, I would say to watch it.

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:27.280
<v Speaker 2>It's three episodes.

0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.680
<v Speaker 1>It's three episodes. They also, which is interesting, they took

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>her voice and then made an AI recreation of her

0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:39.040
<v Speaker 1>voice to read her journal entries, so that's her speaking,

0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:43.560
<v Speaker 1>but not her organic they pull out right, So let's

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:45.440
<v Speaker 1>just do a little background about the facts of this

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>case so we can all just be on the same page,

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 1>and then we're going to go through like a little time.

0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:53.280
<v Speaker 2>So there's Gabby, who's the girl, and then the boyfriend

0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 2>fiance is Brian Laundry.

0:14:55.680 --> 0:15:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Brian So Gabrielle Venora Patito entered the world March nineteenth

0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:04.400
<v Speaker 1>of nineteen ninety nine. Tragically, on August twenty seventh, twenty

0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty one, her life was cut short at the young

0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>age of twenty two. She was on a cross country

0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>road trip with our fiance, Brian Laundry, and they were

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:17.000
<v Speaker 1>visiting national Parks when he strangled her to death. This

0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:20.920
<v Speaker 1>devastating event highlights the horrific reality that some individuals can

0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:24.400
<v Speaker 1>become perpetrators of violence against those that they really should

0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:27.120
<v Speaker 1>cherish in safeguard. And I think one of the main

0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 1>issues in white people are so engrossed in this is

0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 1>because when you watch the special, or you read the facts,

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:35.400
<v Speaker 1>or you read about what has happened, I think there

0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:39.480
<v Speaker 1>are many times where you can see an avenue where

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Gabby could possibly escape or someone could help, and it

0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.720
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't turn out that way. And I think that's

0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>what's so frustrating, So.

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.800
<v Speaker 2>That I think that that and not a conclusive like

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.080
<v Speaker 2>timeline of what happened and how he killed her, and

0:15:56.160 --> 0:16:01.480
<v Speaker 2>then coupled with lots of video and audio during this

0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:03.480
<v Speaker 2>whole time right for us to see.

0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's start. So in July second and twenty twenty one,

0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Gabby Patito and her friend and say Brian embark on

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>a form of trip traveling across the United States and

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 1>their camper van. Now the van was purchased by Gabby

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:15.680
<v Speaker 1>and the van is in Gabby's name, which I think

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:19.200
<v Speaker 1>is important. Gabby wanted to be a vlogger and she

0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 1>wanted to make a YouTube channel. Gabby's friends and families

0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>say that this was something she wanted to make a

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 1>career out of, but Brian did not seem to support it.

0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean the interviews on the in the special, they

0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 1>do talk about how he thought it was dumb, he

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.320
<v Speaker 1>thought it was silly. He wasn't really behind it. And

0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 1>I did find it interesting, or that's just because I

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:38.960
<v Speaker 1>do love tacos. But Gabby worked full time at Taco Bell.

0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, in order to earn enough money to buy

0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 1>this van.

0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, it was to fix up the van.

0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well they had to should buy the van. They

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.280
<v Speaker 1>had to fix up the van, and I have for

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 1>transit some spending money for this trip.

0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 2>So well, and they wanted to convert it because it

0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 2>was just a little delivery van, so they had to

0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 2>convert it a little bit right to commentate what they

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 2>wanted and probably get video equipment right. And her little

0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.840
<v Speaker 2>sign off to people was have a taco tastic day.

0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Yes, have a taco tastic day. All right. So they're

0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 1>out and about, they're going to national parks. She's trying

0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>to document it. I can tell she's frustrated because he

0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.560
<v Speaker 1>doesn't Brian the fiance doesn't seem to be helping her

0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.480
<v Speaker 1>with any of the technology or editing part that seems

0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:23.240
<v Speaker 1>to be all on her shoulders. Then on August twelfth,

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:24.120
<v Speaker 1>this is a very.

0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Well it's evidenced by when you watch the documentary and

0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:32.480
<v Speaker 2>it shows unedited videos, so them trying to capture videos,

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 2>video content, and you could tell it's him just kind

0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:39.400
<v Speaker 2>of shrugging it off or not really engaging, and she's

0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 2>trying to figure it out, like she's not a natural.

0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:43.240
<v Speaker 2>She was kind of trying to egg him on to

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 2>help her, and he was kind of brushing it off.

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:47.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you could tell.

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:49.399
<v Speaker 2>So you wonder if he just didn't want to be

0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:49.960
<v Speaker 2>on video.

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, that was something that I think someone said in

0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:56.199
<v Speaker 1>an interview, one of her friends, possibly I think it

0:17:56.240 --> 0:18:00.320
<v Speaker 1>was Rose, said maybe he was reluctant or has to

0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 1>be on this video because he knows what he's like.

0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't always.

0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:07.679
<v Speaker 2>Control he comes up. Might actually I don't the camera.

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.480
<v Speaker 1>To be rolling exactly. So August twelfth, at twenty twenty

0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:13.320
<v Speaker 1>one is a very important date in the Gabby Patito case.

0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:15.720
<v Speaker 1>This is the day when they are going through Moab

0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and Shane and I have been to Moab just interesting

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:22.040
<v Speaker 1>fun fact there. But bodycam footage from police officer Eric

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Pratt shows Brian and Gabby's van being pulled over on

0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the side of the road in Moab City, Utah. Earlier

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 1>that day, officers had received a call from someone reporting

0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:35.720
<v Speaker 1>that the caller had witnessed a male slapping a female

0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:38.680
<v Speaker 1>and a white van fitting the same description. So through

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:42.160
<v Speaker 1>the bodycam footage, we see Gabby hysterically crying to officers.

0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:44.320
<v Speaker 1>She talks about how she has OCD, she has really

0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:48.760
<v Speaker 1>bad anxiety. When the officer asked her what's wrong, Gabby states,

0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:51.480
<v Speaker 1>We've just been fighting this morning, some personal issues. Yeah,

0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, it's just some days I have really

0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 1>bad OCD and I was just cleaning it, straightening up.

0:18:56.200 --> 0:18:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I was apologizing to him, saying that I'm so mean

0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:02.160
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes I have OCD and I get frustrated. However,

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.760
<v Speaker 1>this is the part that I think kind of boggles

0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:07.960
<v Speaker 1>my mind. They do remove Gabby from the van, they

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:11.880
<v Speaker 1>put her in the police car, and she visibly has

0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:14.360
<v Speaker 1>her eye has been struck.

0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:19.640
<v Speaker 2>I had injury. I saw the photo that she took

0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:23.840
<v Speaker 2>of herself. That injury in that video, not that I

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:26.159
<v Speaker 2>could see clearly there was no injury. But I couldn't

0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:27.840
<v Speaker 2>see whether there was or was an injury, So I

0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.800
<v Speaker 2>don't know if they knew offhand, like maybe it didn't

0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:32.640
<v Speaker 2>show remember when my mom got in an accident.

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:35.200
<v Speaker 1>No, because he referenced it. He says, you have something

0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 1>on your eye, and it looks like you have a

0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:40.680
<v Speaker 1>fresh mark on your So this is the photo from

0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:42.760
<v Speaker 1>her camera roll of her eye, and this is the

0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:44.280
<v Speaker 1>day that she was pulled over. She has the same

0:19:44.280 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 1>thing on.

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:46.639
<v Speaker 2>It looks like she was slapped around.

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:48.959
<v Speaker 1>It looks like she was hit and slapped in the face.

0:19:49.359 --> 0:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>On her She's got a mark on her forehead, a

0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:53.560
<v Speaker 1>mark on her cheek, a mark on her cross, her nose,

0:19:53.600 --> 0:19:55.720
<v Speaker 1>the bridge of her nose. Her eye is red, it's

0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 1>got a little bit of blood and scratching. He also

0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>makes a reference to her having a new fresh mark

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.320
<v Speaker 1>on her arm. Now I do know that Brian has

0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:06.880
<v Speaker 1>marks on his face. He's got some scratches. I found

0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>him Brian, And maybe this is just because I already

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.120
<v Speaker 1>have a preconceived notion of who this man is because

0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I know what happens. But when I'm watching him on

0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 1>the body cam footage, I find him to be nervous.

0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:20.399
<v Speaker 1>I find him to make comments like he's like, well,

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:22.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what Gabby's going to tell you. To me,

0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:27.159
<v Speaker 1>that's very telling that I feel like he's trying to

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 1>hide the fact that he is the aggressor in this situation.

0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:36.080
<v Speaker 1>And I think she has been conditioned to take the blame.

0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:39.480
<v Speaker 2>She's or to diffuse it.

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:44.359
<v Speaker 1>Right, And it worries me that what happened in this

0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>scenario is they separate them, they put her in a car,

0:20:49.080 --> 0:20:52.879
<v Speaker 1>and then she's hysterical. She says she has OCD, she

0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:55.639
<v Speaker 1>says she has anxiety. She's definitely been hit in the face.

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 2>So the way I was.

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Understanding the car position was I felt as if one said, hey,

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 1>we don't really have discretion when it comes to domestic abuse.

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:09.600
<v Speaker 1>In this type of situation, someone needs to be arrested.

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:12.600
<v Speaker 1>But then I do know that they pulled the female

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:15.879
<v Speaker 1>officer in, so I felt as if they thought that

0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:18.240
<v Speaker 1>they should arrest someone, whether it was Brian or Gabby,

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:20.560
<v Speaker 1>because they do make clear that they think she's the aggressor.

0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:22.120
<v Speaker 1>But your opinion is.

0:21:22.119 --> 0:21:25.200
<v Speaker 2>They just well, I think they had an officer come in,

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:27.240
<v Speaker 2>and I remember on video one of the officers was

0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:31.359
<v Speaker 2>saying something the effect of like like, hey, if you

0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:33.960
<v Speaker 2>want to if you think we're in a situation this

0:21:34.000 --> 0:21:36.320
<v Speaker 2>is a scenario where someone needs to be arrested, I'll

0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:38.680
<v Speaker 2>support you. If you think this is a situation where

0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:41.879
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't meet the checklist of having to arrest someone,

0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 2>I'll support that too. So it was like, whatever you

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.560
<v Speaker 2>whichever direction you want to go, I'll support it. And

0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:51.440
<v Speaker 2>then clearly they went the direction of not arresting.

0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:54.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, what do you think about not making an arrest?

0:21:54.200 --> 0:21:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Because I have read several articles I have read you know,

0:21:57.520 --> 0:21:59.960
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about it in a little bit. But Gabby Petito,

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:03.120
<v Speaker 1>those parents have gone on to sue the Moab City

0:22:03.160 --> 0:22:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Police Department for the way they handled the situation on

0:22:06.440 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 1>this day. Do you think that if a rest was made,

0:22:10.040 --> 0:22:13.359
<v Speaker 1>whether it was Gabby or whether it was Brian, that

0:22:13.880 --> 0:22:15.800
<v Speaker 1>it could have had a different outcome. There could have

0:22:15.840 --> 0:22:18.080
<v Speaker 1>been a they could have and.

0:22:18.040 --> 0:22:23.239
<v Speaker 2>We'll never know. But they kept getting back together. They

0:22:23.320 --> 0:22:26.320
<v Speaker 2>kept getting back together because remember what happened is so

0:22:26.359 --> 0:22:30.159
<v Speaker 2>they ended up deciding to separate the two for like

0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:32.879
<v Speaker 2>a cooling off period, and they got him like a

0:22:32.960 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 2>hotel or motel and escorted him there and they gave

0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:40.440
<v Speaker 2>her the camper, probably because it was in her name,

0:22:41.080 --> 0:22:42.439
<v Speaker 2>and gave it to her and to give her the

0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:45.879
<v Speaker 2>mobility to drive home or go wherever she wanted. And

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:49.159
<v Speaker 2>they advised them heavily do not contact each other tonight,

0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:52.680
<v Speaker 2>let it cool off and start again tomorrow. They didn't

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:55.600
<v Speaker 2>do that. She immediately was texting him, so he would

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:57.359
<v Speaker 2>have gone out of jail the next day or whatever

0:22:57.400 --> 0:22:59.639
<v Speaker 2>it was, and they would have gone right back together.

0:23:00.080 --> 0:23:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Don't think making an arrest would have made much of

0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:02.400
<v Speaker 1>a difference.

0:23:02.560 --> 0:23:04.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but that, but that doesn't mean they

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:06.399
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if they should have arrested, they should have

0:23:06.480 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 2>arrested I think.

0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe possibly arresting Gabby because they did claim that she

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>was the aggressor in this situation based upon her saying yeah.

0:23:15.040 --> 0:23:18.880
<v Speaker 2>I I well what right? Yeah?

0:23:18.920 --> 0:23:21.159
<v Speaker 1>But I feel like if she were arrested and she

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:23.960
<v Speaker 1>was actually detained and then she had to make a

0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:26.080
<v Speaker 1>phone call, even though I do know she called her mom,

0:23:26.080 --> 0:23:27.920
<v Speaker 1>but if she had to call her mom and call

0:23:27.960 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 1>her parents and say I was arrested, I need your help,

0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I have to hire an attorney, you need to come here,

0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:37.160
<v Speaker 1>that then maybe her parents.

0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Would have so it would have been elevated to a

0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.240
<v Speaker 2>point where maybe they would would have stepped in. Yeah.

0:23:42.320 --> 0:23:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And that's where I think that possibly there could

0:23:45.280 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 1>have been a different outcome, is if Gabby was that

0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:51.919
<v Speaker 1>was arrested in this situation. Also, I was confused, and

0:23:51.920 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if anybody else thought this when they

0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 1>were watching it, but it did bother me that she

0:23:55.680 --> 0:23:58.879
<v Speaker 1>was hysterical in the car. She said she had OCDS,

0:23:58.920 --> 0:24:01.199
<v Speaker 1>she said she was dealing with severe anxiety. But then

0:24:01.240 --> 0:24:03.239
<v Speaker 1>they put her in a vehicle to drive away and

0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:06.560
<v Speaker 1>stay alone in her vehicle. I was like, so, the

0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:10.280
<v Speaker 1>girl who's hysterical, who says she has OCD and suffers

0:24:10.320 --> 0:24:13.080
<v Speaker 1>from anxiety, you just handed her the keys to her

0:24:13.160 --> 0:24:17.399
<v Speaker 1>vehicle and said now you're alone in a park and

0:24:17.440 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna stay alone in your vehicle.

0:24:20.119 --> 0:24:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they could have escorted her.

0:24:22.080 --> 0:24:25.439
<v Speaker 1>I just I didn't like that part. Also, let me

0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:27.840
<v Speaker 1>just say one more thing when it comes to the parents,

0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know this might be an unpopular opinion.

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I had a hard time with the mom. Now I

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:35.159
<v Speaker 1>understand that she lost her daughter and she is a

0:24:35.200 --> 0:24:39.439
<v Speaker 1>grieving mother, So I'm not trying to be negative towards

0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:43.760
<v Speaker 1>the mom, But as a parent, if my twenty two

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.000
<v Speaker 1>year old daughter called me from the side of a

0:24:46.119 --> 0:24:48.639
<v Speaker 1>road and said she had gotten in a fight with

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:50.959
<v Speaker 1>her boyfriend and they're on a road trip alone together

0:24:51.320 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 1>and police had pulled them over and she was hysterical,

0:24:54.320 --> 0:24:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you I would be in a car or

0:24:56.640 --> 0:24:57.879
<v Speaker 1>on a plane immediately.

0:24:58.080 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 2>No, you wouldn't.

0:24:58.680 --> 0:24:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I would.

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:02.160
<v Speaker 2>I'd be telling me too. Okay, but so on, why

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 2>did I get out there right now? That's probably true,

0:25:05.760 --> 0:25:06.320
<v Speaker 2>we would.

0:25:06.080 --> 0:25:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Have, But I'm telling you there is no way that

0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I would have hung up the phone and then been like, well,

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:12.440
<v Speaker 1>I hope.

0:25:12.320 --> 0:25:14.240
<v Speaker 2>You proceed along fingers crossed.

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I hope you guys get along the next day. I

0:25:16.480 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 1>just I don't know in what world me as well.

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:21.960
<v Speaker 2>We also don't know what conversation yet. Maybe Gabby really

0:25:22.000 --> 0:25:24.920
<v Speaker 2>talked her mom into like it's fine, Maybe she calmed down.

0:25:24.920 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 2>When we don't know, Let me ask one.

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 1>More question, because when Shane and I were watching this together,

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:35.800
<v Speaker 1>when it first showed Gabby getting the van ready and

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:38.159
<v Speaker 1>getting in the van to go with Brian on this

0:25:38.240 --> 0:25:43.160
<v Speaker 1>cross country trip across the United States, he asked, Shane

0:25:43.160 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 1>said to me, how old is she? And I said,

0:25:44.960 --> 0:25:49.440
<v Speaker 1>she's twenty two, And he said, would you let your

0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:52.160
<v Speaker 1>daughter go on a cross country trip in a van

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.399
<v Speaker 1>with her boyfriend? And I said, well, I don't know.

0:25:55.400 --> 0:25:58.239
<v Speaker 1>That's an interesting question because one, she's twenty two, so

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:03.919
<v Speaker 1>she's technically an adult. But also I don't think I

0:26:03.920 --> 0:26:05.280
<v Speaker 1>would be supportive of it.

0:26:05.320 --> 0:26:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Not not someone definitely not with a killer, but definitely

0:26:09.880 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 2>not with him where it didn't seem like her parents

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:17.520
<v Speaker 2>had a close relationship with him, where they knew him

0:26:17.600 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 2>and they were familiar with him and they had a

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:22.240
<v Speaker 2>history together. So it was kind of like, oh, my

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:25.000
<v Speaker 2>new boyfriend and I were going to go travel to

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:29.720
<v Speaker 2>the continental US together in this camper van. That's where

0:26:29.720 --> 0:26:32.440
<v Speaker 2>it's like what And I don't remember if there was

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:34.959
<v Speaker 2>any history between him and the parents, but it just

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:38.880
<v Speaker 2>seemed if they had been together for years family friend

0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:42.480
<v Speaker 2>engaged and there was a lot of comfort there in

0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:44.320
<v Speaker 2>knowing who he was, and they was a good part

0:26:44.359 --> 0:26:45.359
<v Speaker 2>at her and then they wanted to go on a

0:26:45.440 --> 0:26:46.120
<v Speaker 2>road trip. Yeah.

0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So here's the difference is what I'm picking up

0:26:48.600 --> 0:26:50.560
<v Speaker 1>from you, Because Shane does have a twenty three year

0:26:50.600 --> 0:26:54.480
<v Speaker 1>old daughter and she was recently married, so you're saying,

0:26:54.640 --> 0:26:56.560
<v Speaker 1>if Shelby went to you almost twenty two and you

0:26:56.560 --> 0:27:00.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't really know Evan, that's her her husband's husband, you

0:27:00.320 --> 0:27:01.760
<v Speaker 1>would advise her not to go.

0:27:02.359 --> 0:27:04.720
<v Speaker 2>I would be worried about her going. I'd certainly ask

0:27:04.800 --> 0:27:08.560
<v Speaker 2>a lot of questions and probably discourage her from going.

0:27:08.840 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 2>But if it was today that she was going to

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:14.679
<v Speaker 2>do that, my questions would be more about like is

0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:17.840
<v Speaker 2>it a smart thing financially? Are you going to be sustainable?

0:27:18.000 --> 0:27:20.320
<v Speaker 2>Are you going to fall behind in whatever your plant?

0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:24.160
<v Speaker 2>Like those things, not like her safety with her husband

0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:26.920
<v Speaker 2>because we've known him for years now. He's been nothing

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:29.399
<v Speaker 2>but good to her. They haven't had any domestic issue,

0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:31.240
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean, Right, So it's like, yeah,

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 2>of course, now it's just a question of whether it's

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:36.440
<v Speaker 2>a road trip's a good idea, not who you're going with.

0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So, as I stated a little bit earlier, so

0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:50.320
<v Speaker 1>the potitos end up filing a lawsuit against the City

0:27:50.320 --> 0:27:52.920
<v Speaker 1>of Moab for the way they handled that. So they

0:27:52.920 --> 0:27:55.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't investigate a report. And I thought this was interesting

0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:59.080
<v Speaker 1>because they did feature an interview with Officer Pratt, who

0:27:59.160 --> 0:28:01.840
<v Speaker 1>was one of the officers that was there and says,

0:28:02.000 --> 0:28:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm desperately eft over that she got killed. I really am,

0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:08.160
<v Speaker 1>he said, I would have done anything to stop it

0:28:08.200 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>if I would have known that that was coming.

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:13.960
<v Speaker 2>If if anyone knew, they would have stopped.

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:17.480
<v Speaker 1>If I would have known Laundry that Brian was going

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:19.680
<v Speaker 1>to murder her, I would have taken vacation to follow

0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:21.640
<v Speaker 1>them because I care about people to the point where

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:23.439
<v Speaker 1>he was going to murder her, and I would have

0:28:23.480 --> 0:28:26.280
<v Speaker 1>intervened and citizens arrested him. In Wyoming, I would have

0:28:26.320 --> 0:28:28.280
<v Speaker 1>taken my own time. I would have missed my family

0:28:28.320 --> 0:28:32.440
<v Speaker 1>to go do that. Captain Brandon Radcliffe did not lay

0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:37.520
<v Speaker 1>blame on Officer Pratt or fellow responding officer Daniel Robbins, saying, quote,

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:40.440
<v Speaker 1>they both believed at the time they were making the

0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:44.160
<v Speaker 1>right decision based on the totality of the circumstances that

0:28:44.240 --> 0:28:49.000
<v Speaker 1>were presented. That's basically your reasonable person standard in that situation,

0:28:49.120 --> 0:28:52.320
<v Speaker 1>and you know that's what we were talking about, not

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:56.479
<v Speaker 1>knowing what was to come in the future. Would different

0:28:56.520 --> 0:28:59.560
<v Speaker 1>officers have handled it differently? Did they do the right thing?

0:29:00.400 --> 0:29:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, But what happened in this lawsuit against

0:29:03.400 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 1>the City of Moab was basically the court dismissed it,

0:29:07.920 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>saying that it is really just an issue of police immunity.

0:29:11.600 --> 0:29:15.520
<v Speaker 1>You can't sue police officers, and what they did was

0:29:15.560 --> 0:29:18.360
<v Speaker 1>say but you can take it to a higher court

0:29:18.520 --> 0:29:21.960
<v Speaker 1>if they want to address the constitutionality of this immunity

0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:25.280
<v Speaker 1>that they have. So the Potitos have appealed the case.

0:29:25.480 --> 0:29:28.280
<v Speaker 1>I believe what I can find so far is basically

0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 1>that it's in line to possibly be picked up by

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:35.360
<v Speaker 1>the Utah Supreme Court. So we'll see what happens with that.

0:29:35.360 --> 0:29:36.920
<v Speaker 1>That could be a long journey there.

0:29:36.920 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 2>But as when you watched it, do you think the

0:29:38.680 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 2>police officers made the wrong choice, not not knowing the outcome,

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:46.480
<v Speaker 2>just just watching everything as if you were there, do

0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 2>you think police officers should have done something further to

0:29:50.000 --> 0:29:52.240
<v Speaker 2>separate them?

0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I do, because to me, she looked like a frail, scared,

0:29:59.200 --> 0:30:03.800
<v Speaker 1>timid young girl that weighs one hundred pounds, and I

0:30:03.960 --> 0:30:06.440
<v Speaker 1>thought he was creepy, even not knowing, even if you

0:30:06.520 --> 0:30:09.000
<v Speaker 1>take out the circumstances of knowing what happens in the future,

0:30:09.080 --> 0:30:11.880
<v Speaker 1>then I felt like she looked like she was in danger.

0:30:12.000 --> 0:30:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Why did the police? Why do you think the police

0:30:14.640 --> 0:30:15.880
<v Speaker 2>did not do anything?

0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Because I think she kept saying that he was her person.

0:30:18.280 --> 0:30:20.080
<v Speaker 1>She didn't want to be separated. They were a team.

0:30:20.200 --> 0:30:22.600
<v Speaker 1>She kept calling them a team, and I think these

0:30:22.640 --> 0:30:25.120
<v Speaker 1>cops thought, let's just separate them and then they'll be fine.

0:30:25.120 --> 0:30:28.200
<v Speaker 2>The next day, I wondered when I was watching it,

0:30:29.280 --> 0:30:34.800
<v Speaker 2>if because they weren't residents of Moab, and I wondered

0:30:34.840 --> 0:30:37.080
<v Speaker 2>if it was just like these people are coming through,

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:42.240
<v Speaker 2>because it's something like five thousand people live in Moab,

0:30:43.040 --> 0:30:47.720
<v Speaker 2>but there's like multi like three to four million visitors

0:30:47.800 --> 0:30:51.880
<v Speaker 2>a year during peak seasons, So you'll wonder if they're

0:30:51.960 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of like, let's just separate them and get them

0:30:54.160 --> 0:30:56.800
<v Speaker 2>to move along. Do we really want to, like, you know,

0:30:56.960 --> 0:31:00.520
<v Speaker 2>book someone from from out of our city and get

0:31:00.560 --> 0:31:04.880
<v Speaker 2>involved that way and keep them around, or are they

0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:07.280
<v Speaker 2>just traveling through and just just let them cool off

0:31:07.320 --> 0:31:10.480
<v Speaker 2>and travel through. I think them not being a residence

0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 2>was taken into consideration whether they really wanted to be

0:31:13.480 --> 0:31:15.880
<v Speaker 2>invested in either of them being arrested.

0:31:16.600 --> 0:31:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that's probably true too, But.

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Does that make it right wrong? I don't know. All right,

0:31:20.320 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 2>So this, I like how I make a pretty deep

0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:27.320
<v Speaker 2>profound I theorize something and you're like yeah. Yeah, Well,

0:31:27.480 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 2>because you.

0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Made your profound statement and now the listeners can agree

0:31:32.360 --> 0:31:35.120
<v Speaker 1>with you or not. It's not up for me, it's

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:38.040
<v Speaker 1>up to them. So I just want to go on

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 1>with a little bit more of that. However, mister Radcliffe

0:31:41.080 --> 0:31:44.240
<v Speaker 1>suggested that the traffic stop should have ended with Potito's

0:31:44.280 --> 0:31:48.600
<v Speaker 1>arrests because she admitted to hitting laundry. I still kind

0:31:48.600 --> 0:31:50.880
<v Speaker 1>of disagree with that, but that's okay. Based on the

0:31:50.920 --> 0:31:54.440
<v Speaker 1>information provided in this specific incident, Brian would be the victim,

0:31:54.560 --> 0:31:57.200
<v Speaker 1>with Gabby being the suspect. I do not find that

0:31:57.240 --> 0:32:00.320
<v Speaker 1>they enforce the law. They responded to a confirmed mestic

0:32:00.440 --> 0:32:03.160
<v Speaker 1>violence incident, and they had evidence showing an assault had

0:32:03.160 --> 0:32:06.160
<v Speaker 1>taken place. The statements of all this involved, along with

0:32:06.200 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the evidence presented, provided probable cause for an arrest. The

0:32:10.600 --> 0:32:14.239
<v Speaker 1>report recommended that both officers be put on probation and

0:32:14.280 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>that the entire department receive additional domestic violence investigation training

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:23.040
<v Speaker 1>to ensure that officers understand state laws and statutes. We'll

0:32:23.040 --> 0:32:25.600
<v Speaker 1>see what happens. It's the next timeline event, so we're

0:32:25.640 --> 0:32:28.400
<v Speaker 1>still on the timeline. So that was the that was

0:32:28.400 --> 0:32:31.360
<v Speaker 1>August twelfth when they were pulled over. Now, August nineteenth,

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:35.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty one, Gabby and Bryan share their first and

0:32:35.640 --> 0:32:38.720
<v Speaker 1>only YouTube video highlighting their road trip across.

0:32:38.440 --> 0:32:40.480
<v Speaker 2>The United States. One video.

0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>One out of all of that, Okay, it.

0:32:42.480 --> 0:32:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Definitely was not supportive. And what did he want? Then?

0:32:45.360 --> 0:32:46.560
<v Speaker 2>What do you think We're just going to go on

0:32:46.560 --> 0:32:48.480
<v Speaker 2>a road trip, Like she says, let's go on a

0:32:48.560 --> 0:32:51.160
<v Speaker 2>road trip and document it and try to build some

0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:55.160
<v Speaker 2>type of channel and following. And he's just like okay,

0:32:55.200 --> 0:32:58.240
<v Speaker 2>and then he has no interest in doing that party

0:32:58.280 --> 0:33:00.800
<v Speaker 2>this spants to go on the camping part. Like, what

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:01.480
<v Speaker 2>was his plan?

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I think his plan. I think he was just obsessed

0:33:04.040 --> 0:33:06.600
<v Speaker 1>with Gabby and his plan was just to be with Gaby,

0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:09.800
<v Speaker 1>isolated with her to I think he was fine isolating her.

0:33:09.920 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I think he you know, earlier and the.

0:33:12.600 --> 0:33:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Darted day money did support themselves.

0:33:14.640 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they needed a lot of money. I

0:33:16.120 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 1>think they ate in the vase and I think they lived.

0:33:18.120 --> 0:33:21.000
<v Speaker 1>They took showers whatever those public shower places the police

0:33:21.000 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 1>were talking about where he kept telling her over and

0:33:22.880 --> 0:33:25.560
<v Speaker 1>over she could get a hot shower for four.

0:33:27.400 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 2>He kept saying that. I was like, Okay, good for

0:33:29.200 --> 0:33:29.600
<v Speaker 2>your wife.

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I know that the police officer kept.

0:33:31.320 --> 0:33:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Telling you beat your wife she shower. Was like, you

0:33:34.200 --> 0:33:36.080
<v Speaker 2>can't say that. I don't know what he was saying.

0:33:36.120 --> 0:33:38.280
<v Speaker 2>He just kept saying, when my wife gets frazzled, she

0:33:38.320 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 2>takes a hot shower.

0:33:39.480 --> 0:33:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm sure his wife loves that. They keep showing

0:33:41.320 --> 0:33:44.800
<v Speaker 1>that video over. He talks about how his wife suffers because.

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:46.200
<v Speaker 2>It kind of looked like he sends his wife to

0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:50.360
<v Speaker 2>those truck stops for a Showery, you need to cool off, Yeah,

0:33:50.520 --> 0:33:52.360
<v Speaker 2>go to here. It's four bucks. Go ahead, a shower.

0:33:52.440 --> 0:33:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay. So the video there, their first and only video

0:33:54.640 --> 0:33:56.880
<v Speaker 1>that they posted, received five hundred views when it was

0:33:56.920 --> 0:34:00.000
<v Speaker 1>initially posted, but it has now received over ten million.

0:34:00.480 --> 0:34:02.080
<v Speaker 1>And I don't even know. Maybe it's even more than

0:34:02.120 --> 0:34:04.280
<v Speaker 1>ten million. Now, I'm not sure how recent that is.

0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:07.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, that was August nineteenth. Now we move on

0:34:07.200 --> 0:34:10.400
<v Speaker 1>to August twenty sixth of twenty twenty one. Gabby shares

0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:13.800
<v Speaker 1>her final Instagram post. It was wishing everyone a happy

0:34:13.840 --> 0:34:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Halloween as she holds a crochet pumpkin. The post is

0:34:17.560 --> 0:34:22.120
<v Speaker 1>a series of selfies of Gabby looking happy and care free.

0:34:22.200 --> 0:34:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Now we move on to August twenty seventh of twenty

0:34:24.560 --> 0:34:25.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty one.

0:34:25.600 --> 0:34:26.160
<v Speaker 2>This is the.

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Assumed date of Gabby's murder. However, police cannot be certain

0:34:30.160 --> 0:34:32.600
<v Speaker 1>because her body was not found right away. This is

0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:36.160
<v Speaker 1>also the last footage of Gabby that has ever been captured.

0:34:36.160 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 1>There is CCTV video of her and Brian in a

0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:40.920
<v Speaker 1>whole food store.

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:42.319
<v Speaker 2>You can see the video of.

0:34:42.280 --> 0:34:45.279
<v Speaker 1>Them walking down the aisle shopping together, and that's the

0:34:45.360 --> 0:34:48.719
<v Speaker 1>last known time that anyone saw her.

0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Alive August twelve. They get pulled over by the MOAB

0:34:51.719 --> 0:34:55.319
<v Speaker 2>troopers August nineteenth, so one week later they post their

0:34:55.320 --> 0:34:59.080
<v Speaker 2>first and only video, and then another week later, August

0:34:59.160 --> 0:35:04.560
<v Speaker 2>twenty six, she heard her final Instagram post, and then

0:35:04.760 --> 0:35:08.360
<v Speaker 2>and then the following day is the assumed date of murder.

0:35:09.239 --> 0:35:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Now, also, I know you didn't get this far,

0:35:13.640 --> 0:35:17.320
<v Speaker 1>but Gabby called an ex boyfriend.

0:35:17.440 --> 0:35:20.560
<v Speaker 2>Right, Oh yeah, I saw, I did see, I did watch. Okay, Well,

0:35:20.640 --> 0:35:24.080
<v Speaker 2>the first text she sent him was I'm sure I'm

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:25.640
<v Speaker 2>the last person you want to hear from, or I'm

0:35:25.640 --> 0:35:27.520
<v Speaker 2>sure you're the I'm the last person you think you'd

0:35:27.520 --> 0:35:29.320
<v Speaker 2>hear from. Something that matter of fact, meaning they have

0:35:29.440 --> 0:35:33.000
<v Speaker 2>not communicated and it wasn't normal for her to reach

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:36.759
<v Speaker 2>out to him. She reached out to him, and he

0:35:36.840 --> 0:35:38.520
<v Speaker 2>felt there was a reason, like it was a cry

0:35:38.560 --> 0:35:38.960
<v Speaker 2>for help.

0:35:39.200 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 1>So when Gabby was texting with this ex boyfriend, she

0:35:42.560 --> 0:35:45.080
<v Speaker 1>did make it clear. I believe that she wanted to

0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:48.759
<v Speaker 1>break up with Brian, and so I think she was

0:35:48.800 --> 0:35:50.640
<v Speaker 1>reaching out to the ex boyfriend for some kind of

0:35:50.880 --> 0:35:53.799
<v Speaker 1>help or guidance or you know, sometimes when you're just

0:35:53.800 --> 0:35:55.360
<v Speaker 1>like I'm done, but I'm stuck something.

0:35:55.800 --> 0:35:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Should want her mom to judge her, say, see, he

0:35:58.719 --> 0:36:00.799
<v Speaker 2>was not good for you, or maybe her mom wasn't

0:36:00.840 --> 0:36:03.839
<v Speaker 2>really her parents weren't so quick to come out and

0:36:03.920 --> 0:36:07.280
<v Speaker 2>save her the way she wanted it. So she called

0:36:07.880 --> 0:36:10.600
<v Speaker 2>her former boyfriend and was like, I need help. I

0:36:10.600 --> 0:36:11.520
<v Speaker 2>don't know, I don't know.

0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:13.279
<v Speaker 1>But so she calls him and he doesn't answer. He

0:36:13.320 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>says in an interview that he was at work so

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:18.719
<v Speaker 1>he couldn't answer, and then that was the last time

0:36:18.719 --> 0:36:21.760
<v Speaker 1>he heard from her. Because we assume she was murdered

0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:22.640
<v Speaker 1>shortly after.

0:36:22.440 --> 0:36:26.560
<v Speaker 2>That now, and she left no message right so she

0:36:26.640 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 2>could have a lot could have been told had that

0:36:28.560 --> 0:36:29.719
<v Speaker 2>phone call been picked up.

0:36:30.120 --> 0:36:32.880
<v Speaker 1>So August twenty seventh was the last time Gabby was

0:36:32.920 --> 0:36:34.719
<v Speaker 1>seen on any footage, so we know that she was

0:36:34.760 --> 0:36:39.200
<v Speaker 1>alive on August twenty seventh. On August twenty ninth, twenty

0:36:39.280 --> 0:36:43.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty one, Brian called his parents on this day and said, quote,

0:36:43.480 --> 0:36:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Gabby is gone. He later asked his father to arrange

0:36:47.120 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 1>an attorney for him. Following this, the father.

0:36:50.400 --> 0:36:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Coust, well, how do we know these phone calls exist?

0:36:52.760 --> 0:36:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Because well, they.

0:36:54.000 --> 0:36:56.080
<v Speaker 1>End up getting the phone records and they can see

0:36:56.200 --> 0:36:57.600
<v Speaker 1>that he called his parents in the habit.

0:36:57.760 --> 0:36:59.440
<v Speaker 2>They can't see the content, So how do we know

0:36:59.600 --> 0:36:59.959
<v Speaker 2>the content?

0:37:00.080 --> 0:37:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Because I believe that the father came forward later and

0:37:04.000 --> 0:37:04.920
<v Speaker 1>said that that was what was.

0:37:05.200 --> 0:37:06.640
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted to make sure it was accurate, okay.

0:37:06.840 --> 0:37:09.760
<v Speaker 1>So following this, Christopher Laundry, who is the dad, claimed

0:37:09.840 --> 0:37:12.319
<v Speaker 1>that quote he had no idea what to think about

0:37:12.320 --> 0:37:14.600
<v Speaker 1>what had happened to Gabby. He just asked me to

0:37:14.600 --> 0:37:16.719
<v Speaker 1>get a lawyer, and I couldn't get any more information

0:37:16.840 --> 0:37:21.480
<v Speaker 1>from him. End quote. Speaking about the day Brian called them, ROBERTA. Laundry,

0:37:21.480 --> 0:37:24.120
<v Speaker 1>who is the mother, told the court his voice was

0:37:24.200 --> 0:37:26.480
<v Speaker 1>very upset and I didn't know why. I didn't want

0:37:26.520 --> 0:37:28.239
<v Speaker 1>to push him, so we just said goodbye. When I

0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:30.399
<v Speaker 1>got off the phone, I told Chris, that's the dad,

0:37:30.960 --> 0:37:33.680
<v Speaker 1>you know. Brian sounded upset, maybe you should give him

0:37:33.680 --> 0:37:35.799
<v Speaker 1>a call. So then that's when it ended up being

0:37:35.800 --> 0:37:37.759
<v Speaker 1>a longer call. I think that's when he asked for

0:37:37.760 --> 0:37:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the attorney and said Gabby is gone. Now we get

0:37:40.600 --> 0:37:44.200
<v Speaker 1>to August thirtieth, a final text message is sent from

0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Gabby's phone. This is likely Brian posing as Gabby. The

0:37:48.560 --> 0:37:52.080
<v Speaker 1>text was sent to Gabby's mom, Nicole. However, Nicole felt

0:37:52.080 --> 0:37:55.120
<v Speaker 1>something was really strange with the wording of the message

0:37:55.160 --> 0:37:59.800
<v Speaker 1>because it referred to Gabby's grandfather by his first name, Stan,

0:38:00.400 --> 0:38:03.919
<v Speaker 1>which Gabby would never normally call. She would say Grandpa

0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:07.120
<v Speaker 1>or something, but she said Stan in the text message.

0:38:07.440 --> 0:38:11.040
<v Speaker 1>So you can assume on August thirtieth that he's texting

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:16.400
<v Speaker 1>from his phone to or using her phone to reply.

0:38:17.400 --> 0:38:23.120
<v Speaker 1>He also that same day zeld himself from Gabby's account

0:38:23.360 --> 0:38:27.200
<v Speaker 1>seven hundred dollars, and then you know, on zellan notes,

0:38:27.760 --> 0:38:30.200
<v Speaker 1>he puts something to the effect of I never want

0:38:30.200 --> 0:38:32.640
<v Speaker 1>to see you again, basically if from her to him,

0:38:32.760 --> 0:38:35.040
<v Speaker 1>as if from her to him, she was buying out

0:38:35.040 --> 0:38:39.360
<v Speaker 1>of reship, like that's it. So not only did Brian

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:42.719
<v Speaker 1>zell himself money from Gabby's account, but also on his

0:38:42.800 --> 0:38:46.120
<v Speaker 1>road trip home driving her van. He also used her

0:38:46.160 --> 0:38:50.680
<v Speaker 1>debit card to get gas, So there's a little bit

0:38:50.680 --> 0:38:53.040
<v Speaker 1>of a trail that's starting to come forward as far

0:38:53.080 --> 0:38:56.680
<v Speaker 1>as Zell is using her phone, he's using her debit card.

0:38:57.440 --> 0:38:59.759
<v Speaker 1>And I assume so you think that he most likely

0:38:59.840 --> 0:39:02.080
<v Speaker 1>ended his life when he did, because these things are starting.

0:39:02.120 --> 0:39:04.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing if I don't remember, but I think, yeah,

0:39:04.120 --> 0:39:05.960
<v Speaker 2>things started a surface and the next thing you know,

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:08.880
<v Speaker 2>he disappears and he dies, probably because he realized, how

0:39:08.920 --> 0:39:10.560
<v Speaker 2>am I going to explain that I used your credit card?

0:39:10.600 --> 0:39:11.840
<v Speaker 2>How am I going to explain this? How am I

0:39:11.840 --> 0:39:14.600
<v Speaker 2>going to explain that? And I used your phone? Trying

0:39:14.640 --> 0:39:15.640
<v Speaker 2>to cover up her death?

0:39:15.960 --> 0:39:19.719
<v Speaker 1>Right But September one, twenty twenty one, Brian arrives back

0:39:19.760 --> 0:39:21.799
<v Speaker 1>at the home of his parents, Chris and Roberta. And

0:39:21.840 --> 0:39:25.160
<v Speaker 1>this is in Florida. So he shows up September first,

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:28.960
<v Speaker 1>in Florida. He shows up alone, though he was in

0:39:29.000 --> 0:39:32.319
<v Speaker 1>his and Gabby's van. While he's in Florida, Brian and

0:39:32.360 --> 0:39:34.840
<v Speaker 1>his parents move between the family home and a local

0:39:34.880 --> 0:39:36.320
<v Speaker 1>area for a camping trip.

0:39:36.880 --> 0:39:39.640
<v Speaker 2>Now when he shows up, that's odd. I remember that. Now,

0:39:40.160 --> 0:39:42.879
<v Speaker 2>that is odd. They went camping with him?

0:39:43.239 --> 0:39:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know.

0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, what's odd is if you're almost like, it's not

0:39:47.680 --> 0:39:50.040
<v Speaker 2>their first rodeo, Oh, let's go camping.

0:39:50.239 --> 0:39:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, what's odd is your son is on a road

0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:56.399
<v Speaker 1>trip with his girlfriend and then he shows up back

0:39:56.440 --> 0:40:00.479
<v Speaker 1>in Florida driving her van that's registered in her name,

0:40:00.520 --> 0:40:02.520
<v Speaker 1>and she's nowhere to be found, and then you're just

0:40:02.560 --> 0:40:04.480
<v Speaker 1>going to go camping and continue to live life like

0:40:04.520 --> 0:40:05.959
<v Speaker 1>nothing happened and nobody would know how.

0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Before we have our initial consultation with my new criminal attorney,

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:14.359
<v Speaker 2>let's go camping. They went out where there was no where,

0:40:14.360 --> 0:40:18.239
<v Speaker 2>They're off the grid, away from everyone, and then they

0:40:18.239 --> 0:40:19.240
<v Speaker 2>could talk in private.

0:40:20.719 --> 0:40:24.200
<v Speaker 1>That's yeah, I didn't think about that, but probably so

0:40:24.320 --> 0:40:27.720
<v Speaker 1>on September fifth. Now, remember he arrives back in Florida

0:40:27.800 --> 0:40:32.480
<v Speaker 1>on September first, alone September fifth, His sister, Cassie says

0:40:32.520 --> 0:40:34.640
<v Speaker 1>this date is the last time she saw her brother

0:40:34.800 --> 0:40:37.399
<v Speaker 1>or was able to contact him. She also claims her

0:40:37.440 --> 0:40:41.080
<v Speaker 1>parents stopped responding to her as the investigation is playing out,

0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:45.239
<v Speaker 1>so he's disappeared, the sister doesn't know where he is,

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and the parents are also not responding to the sister.

0:40:48.960 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Now September eleventh of twenty twenty one, Gabby's mother, Nicole

0:40:53.239 --> 0:40:57.560
<v Speaker 1>reports Gabby missing to police. The police toe Brian and

0:40:57.600 --> 0:41:00.319
<v Speaker 1>Gabby shared van away from the laundry family Strive Way,

0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and when confronted by police Roberta and Chris these are

0:41:03.840 --> 0:41:07.399
<v Speaker 1>his parents deny having any knowledge of Gabby's whereabouts. Now

0:41:07.440 --> 0:41:09.360
<v Speaker 1>this was so did you see this?

0:41:09.360 --> 0:41:09.919
<v Speaker 2>This was so.

0:41:09.920 --> 0:41:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Frustrating for me. Gabby's mom calls and makes a missing

0:41:14.160 --> 0:41:16.680
<v Speaker 1>person report about Gabby, saying they haven't heard from her

0:41:16.800 --> 0:41:18.919
<v Speaker 1>since it would have been the twenty seventh, right, because

0:41:18.920 --> 0:41:20.600
<v Speaker 1>that was the last day anybody heard from her or

0:41:20.640 --> 0:41:24.880
<v Speaker 1>saw her on video. Here we are September eleventh, so

0:41:24.920 --> 0:41:29.320
<v Speaker 1>you're talking two weeks. At this point, the police show

0:41:29.480 --> 0:41:35.000
<v Speaker 1>up at Brian's house at his parents' house. Gabby is

0:41:35.040 --> 0:41:38.120
<v Speaker 1>not there. The van is there, Yeah, the van is

0:41:38.160 --> 0:41:42.040
<v Speaker 1>registered and heard name. The sister said that Brian said

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:44.880
<v Speaker 1>that he flew back from their trip, which is a

0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:46.239
<v Speaker 1>blatant lie because there's the van.

0:41:46.320 --> 0:41:48.680
<v Speaker 2>He clearly drew it back, unless he's yeah, unless he's

0:41:48.760 --> 0:41:50.640
<v Speaker 2>arguing that she drove it back. He flew back. But

0:41:50.640 --> 0:41:52.840
<v Speaker 2>then be like, oh, yeah, we'll show us your flight.

0:41:52.880 --> 0:41:54.680
<v Speaker 1>But then when the police go to the door and

0:41:54.800 --> 0:41:58.600
<v Speaker 1>request to speak to Brian. The dad comes out, refuses

0:41:58.680 --> 0:42:01.120
<v Speaker 1>to speak, refuses to answer quoes, rssians, and hands them

0:42:01.520 --> 0:42:03.120
<v Speaker 1>the business card of their lawyer.

0:42:03.600 --> 0:42:08.759
<v Speaker 2>If my kid murdered his girlfriend, I'd be driving them

0:42:08.760 --> 0:42:09.560
<v Speaker 2>down to the police station.

0:42:10.960 --> 0:42:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know I am.

0:42:11.960 --> 0:42:15.839
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't mean I would take reasonable precautions. Okay, you

0:42:15.840 --> 0:42:19.640
<v Speaker 2>know you have your rights high lowre. But it'd be like, sorry, dude,

0:42:19.719 --> 0:42:21.919
<v Speaker 2>we're not going camping. We're going to go to the police.

0:42:22.160 --> 0:42:24.920
<v Speaker 1>You're not going to help bury the body. You're not

0:42:24.960 --> 0:42:28.200
<v Speaker 1>going to hinder the investigation. And you're not going to

0:42:28.320 --> 0:42:31.240
<v Speaker 1>allow this mother who has no idea where her daughter

0:42:31.320 --> 0:42:34.359
<v Speaker 1>is continue to guess and not know where her daughter is.

0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:38.360
<v Speaker 2>No, apparently you would, well you'd be like, oh, lukie,

0:42:38.520 --> 0:42:40.800
<v Speaker 2>come to bed with mama.

0:42:40.880 --> 0:42:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I have boys, and that.

0:42:42.600 --> 0:42:44.640
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't mean i'd be okay with it, but that's what

0:42:44.680 --> 0:42:45.279
<v Speaker 2>you got to do.

0:42:46.160 --> 0:42:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I'm not.

0:42:47.360 --> 0:42:50.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean it would be tough. I had I would

0:42:50.239 --> 0:42:53.680
<v Speaker 2>be I would feel awful, but it would be like, sorry.

0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Dude, all right, this is the question now. So then

0:42:58.600 --> 0:43:04.760
<v Speaker 1>by September seventeen, twenty twenty one, Brian's family reports him missing.

0:43:05.239 --> 0:43:07.480
<v Speaker 1>They haven't seen him in three days and suspect that

0:43:07.560 --> 0:43:11.160
<v Speaker 1>he's in the Carlton Reserve in Sara Sarasota County in Florida.

0:43:11.200 --> 0:43:13.920
<v Speaker 1>They claim they did not alert police about it sooner,

0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:16.080
<v Speaker 1>as they thought Brian was going on a camping trip

0:43:16.160 --> 0:43:19.000
<v Speaker 1>to get away from all of the chaos. Lots of

0:43:19.120 --> 0:43:22.680
<v Speaker 1>questions here. First of all, the night that the police

0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:24.880
<v Speaker 1>come in, they're asking about Gabby. Did you think that

0:43:24.920 --> 0:43:28.120
<v Speaker 1>they had probable cause to arrest Brian at that time?

0:43:28.840 --> 0:43:32.919
<v Speaker 1>Here's my thoughts. She's reported missing, the mother hasn't heard

0:43:32.920 --> 0:43:34.879
<v Speaker 1>from her, The van is parked in the driveway, it's

0:43:34.960 --> 0:43:38.160
<v Speaker 1>registered in her name. The dad won't talk, Brian won't

0:43:38.200 --> 0:43:40.319
<v Speaker 1>come to the door. They hand him a card, a

0:43:40.360 --> 0:43:43.000
<v Speaker 1>business card of an attorney and say contact my attorney.

0:43:43.480 --> 0:43:45.440
<v Speaker 1>Is that enough to arrest him? And should they have

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:46.600
<v Speaker 1>arrested him at that time?

0:43:46.680 --> 0:43:49.560
<v Speaker 2>They should have because the car is in her name,

0:43:50.719 --> 0:43:53.720
<v Speaker 2>so that it's like my daughter's missing for two weeks.

0:43:53.719 --> 0:43:56.040
<v Speaker 2>She was with that guy. He doesn't know where she

0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:58.600
<v Speaker 2>is or he's not talking, and he has her car.

0:43:59.800 --> 0:44:03.799
<v Speaker 1>But I've also read and thought about that they don't

0:44:03.840 --> 0:44:06.759
<v Speaker 1>want to arrest too early in an investigation.

0:44:06.960 --> 0:44:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Here's what I'm thinking, I'm thinking the Potito parents did not,

0:44:16.320 --> 0:44:19.759
<v Speaker 2>did not. We're not aggressive enough in saying our daughter

0:44:19.840 --> 0:44:23.440
<v Speaker 2>is missing, something's wrong, just as they weren't very protective

0:44:23.440 --> 0:44:25.120
<v Speaker 2>of her when she wanted to just go across the

0:44:25.120 --> 0:44:26.239
<v Speaker 2>country with some new guys.

0:44:26.320 --> 0:44:28.560
<v Speaker 1>So you're saying you're not You're not saying they're bad.

0:44:28.560 --> 0:44:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Parents are not blaming their parents, but you're saying they

0:44:31.120 --> 0:44:31.680
<v Speaker 1>could have been more.

0:44:31.960 --> 0:44:34.440
<v Speaker 2>I would have been like, she's been gone for two

0:44:34.480 --> 0:44:36.560
<v Speaker 2>weeks if I knew, if assuming they knew all these facts,

0:44:36.640 --> 0:44:38.239
<v Speaker 2>she's been gone for two weeks. I have not heard

0:44:38.239 --> 0:44:40.720
<v Speaker 2>from her. She called me crying once when the police

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:43.799
<v Speaker 2>pulled her over. There's been some scuffling between the two

0:44:43.840 --> 0:44:47.480
<v Speaker 2>of them, and she's he came back without her and

0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:50.360
<v Speaker 2>he has her car, and I am fearful. I needed,

0:44:50.560 --> 0:44:52.120
<v Speaker 2>I needed. We need to look into this.

0:44:52.360 --> 0:44:54.480
<v Speaker 1>What would you have done differently? Because she called the

0:44:54.520 --> 0:44:58.160
<v Speaker 1>police and she she reported her missing in Florida, to

0:44:58.200 --> 0:45:01.960
<v Speaker 1>where his parents live. So I'm saying, if you don't

0:45:02.000 --> 0:45:04.200
<v Speaker 1>know where they are on their road trip, because you

0:45:04.239 --> 0:45:06.680
<v Speaker 1>haven't heard from her for two weeks, where are you

0:45:06.719 --> 0:45:07.680
<v Speaker 1>physically going to go?

0:45:08.160 --> 0:45:10.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I don't know but you would have had.

0:45:10.040 --> 0:45:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Life three sixty on her. I would have done Yeah, yeah,

0:45:15.560 --> 0:45:19.680
<v Speaker 1>we have life three sixty on Annabel. I would unless

0:45:19.680 --> 0:45:22.520
<v Speaker 1>she but he took her phone. How do you can't like?

0:45:22.920 --> 0:45:24.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but I would not have been sleeping

0:45:25.200 --> 0:45:27.319
<v Speaker 2>normal and going back to work the next day and

0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:29.880
<v Speaker 2>all this. I would have been trying to figure it out.

0:45:30.040 --> 0:45:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, here is my problem with the way the police

0:45:32.320 --> 0:45:34.880
<v Speaker 1>handled it. When Brian ends up back on Florida, we

0:45:34.960 --> 0:45:37.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know where the body is, we don't know where

0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Gabby is. Brian was the key to finding Gabby Petito,

0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:44.480
<v Speaker 1>and they did not have a trail on him. They

0:45:44.520 --> 0:45:47.719
<v Speaker 1>were not watching him. He disappeared from the police and

0:45:47.760 --> 0:45:50.200
<v Speaker 1>the police had no idea where he was. We are

0:45:50.320 --> 0:45:53.520
<v Speaker 1>lucky that someone else ended up finding the body, But

0:45:53.560 --> 0:45:56.520
<v Speaker 1>what if someone didn't find the body outside of Brian.

0:45:57.080 --> 0:45:58.719
<v Speaker 1>The police lost him. They don't know where he is.

0:46:00.719 --> 0:46:04.719
<v Speaker 1>Do you understand what I'm saying? Yeah, I think I'm

0:46:04.800 --> 0:46:07.560
<v Speaker 1>saying that Brian is the key to finding out what

0:46:07.600 --> 0:46:10.640
<v Speaker 1>happened to Gabby, where her body is, how she was right.

0:46:10.640 --> 0:46:12.200
<v Speaker 2>He knows everything. He's the only one that.

0:46:12.160 --> 0:46:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Knows, the only one that knows, and the police lost him.

0:46:16.120 --> 0:46:19.200
<v Speaker 1>They didn't know where he was, and it took his

0:46:19.400 --> 0:46:22.080
<v Speaker 1>parents to go to this camping site, which, by the way,

0:46:22.120 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 1>is also suspicious that police were apparently looking for him

0:46:24.960 --> 0:46:27.520
<v Speaker 1>for days and days and days in this campsite and

0:46:27.520 --> 0:46:30.640
<v Speaker 1>then his parents show up and they literally like walk

0:46:30.760 --> 0:46:33.799
<v Speaker 1>to where he is. They're like, oh, there he is

0:46:33.880 --> 0:46:36.839
<v Speaker 1>with his backpack and you know, his camping things. They

0:46:36.880 --> 0:46:39.560
<v Speaker 1>found him like that, Yeah, I.

0:46:39.520 --> 0:46:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Don't know that family's dirty.

0:46:43.200 --> 0:46:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Let's back up a little bit. Let's go through this timeline.

0:46:45.320 --> 0:46:48.600
<v Speaker 1>September seventeenth is when Brian's family reports him missing. They

0:46:48.600 --> 0:46:51.840
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen him in three days. They suspect that he's camping.

0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:56.080
<v Speaker 1>September nineteenth is when Gabby's body is found near Grand

0:46:56.120 --> 0:46:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Titan National Park in Wyoming. After speaking with her family

0:46:59.680 --> 0:47:02.560
<v Speaker 1>and having her identified, the news was made public, So

0:47:02.600 --> 0:47:05.560
<v Speaker 1>her body is found on September nineteenth. Now, remember he

0:47:05.600 --> 0:47:09.040
<v Speaker 1>went missing on September seventeenth. This was my point from earlier.

0:47:09.360 --> 0:47:12.480
<v Speaker 1>If someone did not come across her body in that park,

0:47:13.120 --> 0:47:16.840
<v Speaker 1>this guy eluded police, disappeared into a campsite, and nobody

0:47:16.840 --> 0:47:19.520
<v Speaker 1>can find him. He is the only one who knows

0:47:19.560 --> 0:47:23.280
<v Speaker 1>where she is buried, knows how she died knows anything.

0:47:23.400 --> 0:47:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying that police lost him.

0:47:26.760 --> 0:47:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they lost their their hot lead. They did, and

0:47:30.280 --> 0:47:34.080
<v Speaker 2>that a person of interest exactly. So September twenty first,

0:47:34.440 --> 0:47:37.480
<v Speaker 2>the coroner rules her cause of death as homicide. So

0:47:37.560 --> 0:47:40.400
<v Speaker 2>now it's turned into a murder investigation. They should have

0:47:40.400 --> 0:47:43.279
<v Speaker 2>put like a tracker on his car. That's what they did,

0:47:43.680 --> 0:47:47.799
<v Speaker 2>like Scott Peterson that, oh you're very suspicious, Scott Peterson, right,

0:47:47.800 --> 0:47:49.080
<v Speaker 2>and they put a tracker on his car.

0:47:49.400 --> 0:47:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you. If they didn't want to take him

0:47:51.520 --> 0:47:53.919
<v Speaker 1>into custody because they didn't feel like they had enough

0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:57.080
<v Speaker 1>evidence for a murder investigation, I get that. I understand

0:47:57.080 --> 0:47:58.640
<v Speaker 1>that you want to make sure when you arrest him

0:47:58.680 --> 0:48:00.640
<v Speaker 1>that you have all your docks in a row because

0:48:00.680 --> 0:48:04.080
<v Speaker 1>you don't want him to get out. However, they don't

0:48:04.120 --> 0:48:06.280
<v Speaker 1>know where he is. They're not tracking him, they don't

0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:09.759
<v Speaker 1>have someone following him. They're not watching the house. This

0:48:10.000 --> 0:48:15.120
<v Speaker 1>guy shows up in Florida without his girlfriend and he disappears.

0:48:15.880 --> 0:48:18.799
<v Speaker 1>Her body was in a national park. It could have

0:48:19.320 --> 0:48:33.560
<v Speaker 1>eluded people. Police campers her family forever. On October twentieth,

0:48:33.880 --> 0:48:37.480
<v Speaker 1>after over a month of searching, Brian's belongings and his

0:48:37.520 --> 0:48:41.680
<v Speaker 1>body are found by his parents and the authorities. And

0:48:41.760 --> 0:48:43.840
<v Speaker 1>the authorities should actually just be in parentheses because the

0:48:43.880 --> 0:48:46.000
<v Speaker 1>authorities have been looking for him for over a month.

0:48:46.000 --> 0:48:48.920
<v Speaker 1>They can't find him. But then his parents just like

0:48:49.160 --> 0:48:52.640
<v Speaker 1>walk up and find him within an hour. Then on

0:48:52.680 --> 0:48:56.040
<v Speaker 1>November twenty third, at twenty twenty one, following an autopsy,

0:48:56.520 --> 0:48:59.680
<v Speaker 1>police confirmed that Brian died by suicide with a gunshot

0:48:59.680 --> 0:49:04.760
<v Speaker 1>who in his head. Now here's some other important details

0:49:04.800 --> 0:49:08.680
<v Speaker 1>about this story. Police, this is very interesting. You'll like this.

0:49:08.800 --> 0:49:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Police found a letter that Brian's mom, Roberta, had written

0:49:11.719 --> 0:49:13.320
<v Speaker 1>to him. There is no way to know when the

0:49:13.400 --> 0:49:16.160
<v Speaker 1>letter was actually written. It was not dated. But the

0:49:16.280 --> 0:49:20.839
<v Speaker 1>envelope reads Brian Christopher Laundry and then it says burn after.

0:49:20.640 --> 0:49:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Reading and this is found on him.

0:49:23.920 --> 0:49:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I believe so. The letter reads, I just want you

0:49:27.080 --> 0:49:28.880
<v Speaker 1>to remember I will always love you, and I know

0:49:28.960 --> 0:49:29.880
<v Speaker 1>you will always love me.

0:49:30.080 --> 0:49:30.880
<v Speaker 2>You are my boy.

0:49:31.080 --> 0:49:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Nothing can make me stop loving you. Nothing will or

0:49:33.520 --> 0:49:36.080
<v Speaker 1>could ever divide us. No matter what we do, or

0:49:36.080 --> 0:49:38.160
<v Speaker 1>where we go, or what we say, we will always

0:49:38.200 --> 0:49:41.000
<v Speaker 1>love each other. If you're in jail, I will bake

0:49:41.040 --> 0:49:43.279
<v Speaker 1>a cake with a file in it. If you need

0:49:43.320 --> 0:49:45.719
<v Speaker 1>to dispose of a body, I will show up with

0:49:45.760 --> 0:49:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the shovel and garbage bags. If you fly to the moon,

0:49:49.719 --> 0:49:51.839
<v Speaker 1>I will be watching the skies for your re entry.

0:49:52.000 --> 0:49:54.200
<v Speaker 1>If you say you hate my guts, I will get

0:49:54.320 --> 0:49:57.719
<v Speaker 1>new guts. Roberta, that's the mom, has said the letter

0:49:57.800 --> 0:50:01.600
<v Speaker 1>was written before her son's trip Withtito, and one of

0:50:01.600 --> 0:50:05.000
<v Speaker 1>her attorneys released a statement saying it was quote in

0:50:05.000 --> 0:50:08.960
<v Speaker 1>no way related to Gabby end quote, although Potito's family

0:50:09.040 --> 0:50:15.040
<v Speaker 1>has challenged those assertions. Now the Potitos end up suing

0:50:16.600 --> 0:50:21.919
<v Speaker 1>Bryan Laundry's family, It did not go to trial, which

0:50:21.960 --> 0:50:23.880
<v Speaker 1>I think is a good thing. They ended up settling,

0:50:23.920 --> 0:50:26.480
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure it's because both sides did not want

0:50:26.600 --> 0:50:33.480
<v Speaker 1>to litigate the details of what happened to Gabby, and

0:50:33.560 --> 0:50:35.880
<v Speaker 1>so it ended up settling out of court for I

0:50:35.880 --> 0:50:38.319
<v Speaker 1>don't know if it was an undisclosed I think it

0:50:38.360 --> 0:50:42.399
<v Speaker 1>was three million. Yeah, So what are your thoughts on that?

0:50:43.480 --> 0:50:44.720
<v Speaker 2>It's a shady family.

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:46.880
<v Speaker 1>That is a shady family.

0:50:46.880 --> 0:50:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Would not I would not recommend dating anyone in that family.

0:50:51.640 --> 0:50:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I have a question his parents found his body.

0:50:54.800 --> 0:50:57.920
<v Speaker 1>His parents found his body.

0:50:56.320 --> 0:51:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they knew where he was. They were in communication

0:51:01.040 --> 0:51:03.920
<v Speaker 2>with them. Did they search his phones after they found

0:51:03.920 --> 0:51:06.160
<v Speaker 2>his body or anything like that that we know of?

0:51:06.400 --> 0:51:07.920
<v Speaker 1>You know what I always thought, because I did think

0:51:07.920 --> 0:51:10.719
<v Speaker 1>of that myself. I thought maybe they found that the

0:51:10.760 --> 0:51:13.680
<v Speaker 1>police found Brian's phone when they found him dead, because

0:51:13.680 --> 0:51:16.279
<v Speaker 1>they did find a notebook with Brian that happened that

0:51:16.960 --> 0:51:19.960
<v Speaker 1>had like his handwritten journal entries in it. So I

0:51:20.040 --> 0:51:23.040
<v Speaker 1>just want to read a few passages from his notebook

0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:26.000
<v Speaker 1>that was found with his belongings after he committed suicide.

0:51:26.280 --> 0:51:28.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry to everyone this will affect. Gabby was the

0:51:28.719 --> 0:51:31.160
<v Speaker 1>love of my life and I know adored by many.

0:51:31.200 --> 0:51:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm so very sorry to her family because I love them.

0:51:34.040 --> 0:51:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I consider her younger siblings my best of friends. I

0:51:36.960 --> 0:51:38.880
<v Speaker 1>am sorry to my family. This is a shock to

0:51:39.000 --> 0:51:42.200
<v Speaker 1>them as well as a terrible grief. Please do not

0:51:42.320 --> 0:51:46.200
<v Speaker 1>make this harder for them. This occurred as an unexpected tragedy.

0:51:46.719 --> 0:51:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Rushing back to our car, trying to cross the streams

0:51:49.360 --> 0:51:51.520
<v Speaker 1>before it got too dark to see, too cold, I

0:51:51.560 --> 0:51:53.960
<v Speaker 1>hear a splash and a scream. I could barely see.

0:51:54.200 --> 0:51:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't find her for a moment. Shouted her name.

0:51:56.560 --> 0:51:59.279
<v Speaker 1>I found her, breathing heavily. I carried her as far

0:51:59.280 --> 0:52:02.080
<v Speaker 1>as I could from the stream toward the car, stumbling,

0:52:02.200 --> 0:52:05.640
<v Speaker 1>exhausted in shock, knew I couldn't safely carry her. I

0:52:05.680 --> 0:52:08.359
<v Speaker 1>started a fire and spooned her as close to the heat.

0:52:08.480 --> 0:52:11.440
<v Speaker 1>She was so thin, had already been freezing too long.

0:52:11.920 --> 0:52:15.399
<v Speaker 1>While carrying her, she continually made sounds of pain. Laying

0:52:15.440 --> 0:52:19.000
<v Speaker 1>next to her, she said little, gasping between violent shakes,

0:52:19.360 --> 0:52:21.719
<v Speaker 1>gasping in pain, begging for an end to her pain.

0:52:21.800 --> 0:52:23.680
<v Speaker 1>She would fall asleep, and I would shake her awake,

0:52:23.719 --> 0:52:26.920
<v Speaker 1>fearing she shouldn't close her eyes if she had a concussion.

0:52:27.239 --> 0:52:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the extent of Gabby's injuries, only that

0:52:29.680 --> 0:52:32.840
<v Speaker 1>she was in extreme pain. I ended her life. I

0:52:32.880 --> 0:52:35.759
<v Speaker 1>thought it was merciful, that is what she wanted. But

0:52:35.920 --> 0:52:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I see now all the mistakes I made. I panicked,

0:52:38.360 --> 0:52:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I was in shock. I knew I couldn't go on

0:52:40.960 --> 0:52:45.000
<v Speaker 1>without her. I rushed home to spend any time I

0:52:45.040 --> 0:52:47.360
<v Speaker 1>had left with my family. I wanted to drive north

0:52:47.400 --> 0:52:50.319
<v Speaker 1>and let James or TJ kill me. I assumed James

0:52:50.400 --> 0:52:53.799
<v Speaker 1>or TJ is dad and stepdad, but I wouldn't want

0:52:53.840 --> 0:52:56.120
<v Speaker 1>them to spend time in jail over my mistake, even

0:52:56.160 --> 0:53:00.399
<v Speaker 1>though I'm sure they would have liked to. I'm ending

0:53:00.440 --> 0:53:02.759
<v Speaker 1>my life not because of a fear of punishment, but

0:53:02.840 --> 0:53:05.319
<v Speaker 1>rather because I can't stand to live another day without her.

0:53:05.360 --> 0:53:07.879
<v Speaker 1>I've lost our whole future together, every moment we could

0:53:07.920 --> 0:53:10.840
<v Speaker 1>have shared. I'm sorry for everyone's loss. Please do not

0:53:10.920 --> 0:53:13.080
<v Speaker 1>make life harder for my family. They lost a son

0:53:13.120 --> 0:53:15.840
<v Speaker 1>and a daughter, the most wonderful girl in the world, Gabby.

0:53:15.920 --> 0:53:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. So that was found in his notebook next

0:53:19.680 --> 0:53:22.359
<v Speaker 1>to his body when he committed suicide, the part that

0:53:22.360 --> 0:53:25.480
<v Speaker 1>bothers me about him committing suicide again. I'm going back

0:53:25.480 --> 0:53:27.600
<v Speaker 1>to the police, and I believe they have probable cause

0:53:27.640 --> 0:53:30.680
<v Speaker 1>that night to either arrest him, detain him, question him,

0:53:31.280 --> 0:53:34.160
<v Speaker 1>track him, follow him. Is I want to see this

0:53:34.239 --> 0:53:38.840
<v Speaker 1>guy brought to justice. Suicide is too easy of a

0:53:38.920 --> 0:53:42.360
<v Speaker 1>way out for him. I want him to go to court.

0:53:42.600 --> 0:53:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I want there to be even though I feel badly

0:53:45.040 --> 0:53:46.560
<v Speaker 1>that the parents would have to go through a trial.

0:53:46.600 --> 0:53:50.160
<v Speaker 1>But don't you want to know what happened? Don't you

0:53:50.200 --> 0:53:51.600
<v Speaker 1>want to go through his phone? Don't you want to

0:53:51.680 --> 0:53:54.680
<v Speaker 1>question him and depose him and put him on the stand.

0:53:55.239 --> 0:53:56.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's going to rot in hell.

0:53:56.719 --> 0:54:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, so what happens after this Gabby.

0:54:01.600 --> 0:54:05.080
<v Speaker 2>Petti no pain before, like after all your surgeries and stuff,

0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:08.359
<v Speaker 2>and you're miserable, and I never once thought, oh, I'll

0:54:08.400 --> 0:54:10.480
<v Speaker 2>strangle you and put you out of your misery. No,

0:54:10.600 --> 0:54:11.160
<v Speaker 2>thank you for that.

0:54:11.239 --> 0:54:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate it. I mean I did have a hip replacement,

0:54:13.800 --> 0:54:15.640
<v Speaker 1>and I will tell you the pain that I was

0:54:15.680 --> 0:54:18.799
<v Speaker 1>in before my hip replacement was the most severe pain

0:54:18.840 --> 0:54:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I have ever been in. And I'm thankful to you

0:54:22.320 --> 0:54:23.080
<v Speaker 1>for not ending.

0:54:23.440 --> 0:54:25.440
<v Speaker 2>No, I will not strangle you as a result.

0:54:25.719 --> 0:54:29.399
<v Speaker 1>I as I moaned and gasped and pain at night,

0:54:29.400 --> 0:54:31.080
<v Speaker 1>because I did do that for a long time.

0:54:31.200 --> 0:54:33.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, are you buying anything he wrote there?

0:54:34.360 --> 0:54:34.560
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:54:34.680 --> 0:54:38.400
<v Speaker 2>This, I mean you know, he strangled her. She gasped

0:54:38.440 --> 0:54:41.000
<v Speaker 2>for air, she begged it to stop at all those

0:54:41.000 --> 0:54:43.200
<v Speaker 2>things he said. But it's because he was killing her.

0:54:43.560 --> 0:54:45.799
<v Speaker 1>I think it had to do with jealousy. I think

0:54:45.840 --> 0:54:48.960
<v Speaker 1>he probably saw her phone, saw that she had texted

0:54:48.960 --> 0:54:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the ex boyfriend, saw that she called the ex boyfriend.

0:54:51.840 --> 0:54:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I think he went into a jealous rage because he

0:54:55.719 --> 0:54:59.160
<v Speaker 1>knew that she was probably trying to get away from him.

0:54:59.480 --> 0:55:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, is he out? Yeah, because she might have

0:55:02.600 --> 0:55:04.160
<v Speaker 2>been saying I'm going to break up with you. And

0:55:04.160 --> 0:55:05.759
<v Speaker 2>things like that, and then he sees the phone. It's

0:55:05.760 --> 0:55:06.600
<v Speaker 2>the ex boyfriend.

0:55:06.680 --> 0:55:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So Gabby Patito's family appealed to Utah judge's decision

0:55:11.080 --> 0:55:14.400
<v Speaker 1>dismissing their wrongful death lawsuit against the MOA Police Department.

0:55:14.440 --> 0:55:16.400
<v Speaker 1>We talked about this earlier. The family is seeking to

0:55:16.520 --> 0:55:19.120
<v Speaker 1>change a state law that limits wrongful death claims against

0:55:19.160 --> 0:55:22.319
<v Speaker 1>the government agencies. The family hopes to change the law

0:55:22.360 --> 0:55:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to prevent future victims of domestic violence from going without justice.

0:55:26.920 --> 0:55:29.759
<v Speaker 1>So where it's at now is they are appealing to

0:55:30.080 --> 0:55:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the Utah Supreme Court. So we'll see if the Utah

0:55:32.680 --> 0:55:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Supreme Court picks up the case. It's a constitutional.

0:55:35.080 --> 0:55:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Issue with really all that can happen the best the

0:55:37.560 --> 0:55:40.719
<v Speaker 2>outcome is the police department learns something, they do an

0:55:40.719 --> 0:55:42.920
<v Speaker 2>internal review, and they do something to make it better

0:55:42.960 --> 0:55:44.960
<v Speaker 2>for nixt time. That's that's all you can do, right

0:55:45.000 --> 0:55:45.560
<v Speaker 2>And then.

0:55:45.560 --> 0:55:49.120
<v Speaker 1>In twenty twenty two, the Petito and Schmidt family Potito

0:55:49.239 --> 0:55:52.280
<v Speaker 1>is his family, Schmidt is the mom, settled a wrongful

0:55:52.320 --> 0:55:56.479
<v Speaker 1>death lawsuit against Brian's parents for three million. And then

0:55:56.640 --> 0:55:59.719
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty four, the Potito family settled another case,

0:55:59.760 --> 0:56:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a ledging that the laundries had inflicted emotional distress, and

0:56:03.239 --> 0:56:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the undisclosed amount. I don't know how

0:56:05.480 --> 0:56:08.600
<v Speaker 1>much that was, but they settled that. So that's where

0:56:08.640 --> 0:56:11.080
<v Speaker 1>we're at. Also, just if there's any good that came

0:56:11.120 --> 0:56:14.600
<v Speaker 1>from the Potito case, there is the Gabby Potito Bill,

0:56:14.800 --> 0:56:18.520
<v Speaker 1>which was passed in Florida in twenty twenty four. It's

0:56:18.560 --> 0:56:20.680
<v Speaker 1>a new bill passed by the House and Senate and

0:56:20.760 --> 0:56:25.160
<v Speaker 1>it was advocated for by Joseph Patito, Gabby Patito's father,

0:56:25.640 --> 0:56:28.960
<v Speaker 1>and it creates a set of twelve mandatory questions law

0:56:29.000 --> 0:56:32.400
<v Speaker 1>enforcement we'll have to ask a potential victim when responding

0:56:32.440 --> 0:56:35.840
<v Speaker 1>to a domestic violence call. It's referred to as the

0:56:35.880 --> 0:56:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Gabby Patito Act. And I'll just go through something. We

0:56:38.200 --> 0:56:41.040
<v Speaker 1>don't have to go through all twelve, but it's too

0:56:42.160 --> 0:56:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it's to streamline the process better, especially when

0:56:44.920 --> 0:56:48.200
<v Speaker 1>you think back to the Moab situation where they pulled

0:56:48.200 --> 0:56:49.920
<v Speaker 1>her over and they put her in another car and

0:56:49.960 --> 0:56:52.880
<v Speaker 1>they were just kind of asking her who's the aggressor

0:56:52.960 --> 0:56:55.080
<v Speaker 1>or was it you did you hit him? It wasn't.

0:56:55.200 --> 0:57:00.160
<v Speaker 1>There wasn't a structured system of trying to find find

0:57:00.239 --> 0:57:04.960
<v Speaker 1>out what happened. So the mandatory set of twelve questions include,

0:57:05.000 --> 0:57:06.800
<v Speaker 1>let's just go through some of them. Did the aggressor

0:57:06.800 --> 0:57:08.960
<v Speaker 1>ever use a weapon against you or threaten you? Did

0:57:09.000 --> 0:57:11.440
<v Speaker 1>the aggressor ever threaten to kill you or your children? Yeah?

0:57:11.480 --> 0:57:15.319
<v Speaker 2>But then what happens when the scared person in this

0:57:15.400 --> 0:57:17.840
<v Speaker 2>relationship is saying no, no, they didn't, No, no they didn't,

0:57:17.880 --> 0:57:18.840
<v Speaker 2>everything's fine.

0:57:20.240 --> 0:57:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, I don't know, you know, I don't know. I

0:57:22.720 --> 0:57:23.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know.

0:57:23.200 --> 0:57:26.720
<v Speaker 2>The kind of asked her questions and she just made

0:57:26.760 --> 0:57:28.160
<v Speaker 2>it like he was the love of her life and

0:57:28.200 --> 0:57:31.480
<v Speaker 2>they're a team and I'm sorry I acted out and

0:57:31.520 --> 0:57:34.040
<v Speaker 2>I hit him and that's why he was driving like that.

0:57:34.640 --> 0:57:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, maybe the fact that it's twelve questions,

0:57:37.760 --> 0:57:40.920
<v Speaker 1>which is a lot of questions, maybe that the point

0:57:41.040 --> 0:57:44.160
<v Speaker 1>is to build a rapport. Yeah, and if you're asking

0:57:44.240 --> 0:57:49.360
<v Speaker 1>twelve mandatory questions, that it's a long enough conversation that

0:57:49.400 --> 0:57:51.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe that person calms down.

0:57:52.360 --> 0:57:55.320
<v Speaker 2>And maybe the police are forced to kind of, you know,

0:57:56.200 --> 0:57:58.960
<v Speaker 2>basically these twelve questions to dig deeper.

0:57:58.560 --> 0:58:01.640
<v Speaker 1>And kind of not just valuate maybe the body language

0:58:01.760 --> 0:58:06.600
<v Speaker 1>the answers and make a determination. I think now is

0:58:06.600 --> 0:58:08.640
<v Speaker 1>it going to make a huge difference? I don't have

0:58:08.720 --> 0:58:11.600
<v Speaker 1>any idea, But at least the point is is that

0:58:11.640 --> 0:58:16.120
<v Speaker 1>based upon what happened to Gabby, people legislatures are saying, hey,

0:58:16.120 --> 0:58:19.000
<v Speaker 1>there needs to be a better system in place so

0:58:19.040 --> 0:58:21.440
<v Speaker 1>that we can protect people better. So at least that's

0:58:21.480 --> 0:58:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a positive start. So anyway, all right, thank you guys

0:58:25.640 --> 0:58:28.600
<v Speaker 1>so much for listening. We appreciate it. And again, let

0:58:28.720 --> 0:58:30.280
<v Speaker 1>us know if there's any cases out there that you

0:58:30.280 --> 0:58:33.040
<v Speaker 1>would love for us to cover, to talk about, and

0:58:33.120 --> 0:58:36.480
