1 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace. And it all started last 2 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: month when someone reported that the children and at home 3 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: we're not getting an education. See yf D started checking 4 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: up on that, and documents say that's when they discovered 5 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: this family has a big, mysterious past. The walls are 6 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: covered in letters in the handwriting of a nearly ten 7 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: year old child. I miss you, I love you. Sweet 8 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: words to parents just arrested for child abuse. My family 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: are wonderful people. My mom and dad are some of 10 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: the best people. You mean those words and these letters 11 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: a stark contrast from details in these court documents. Martha 12 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: and Timothy Crouch are facing serious child abuse allegations that 13 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: all stemmed after calls to see YFD about alleged educational neglect. 14 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: We don't make the kid to do anything you don't 15 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: want to, unless it's a tour or something. Yeah, you 16 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: gotta do dishes, you gotta does croudest son, thirty one 17 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: year old Timothy says, the fourteen kids, some who are 18 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: now adults, made their own decisions. My brother Padrow's a 19 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: truck for Louis And if you ask them to read something, 20 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna look at you. You're like you're you're funny, 21 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: but you get them on the back of the truck 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: and he can drive it. A mother, a New Mexico 23 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: mother accused of boiling puppies, torturing children, bait nborn kittens 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: dead with a hammer. It it's almost too gruesome to 25 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: believe it's it's true. I'm Nancy Grace. This is crime Stories. 26 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. Emphasis on word mother. 27 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: If this is true that she actually boiled puppies or 28 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: beatnborn kittens dead with a hammer, her daughter's breaking their 29 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: silence to tell of pure hell and a house of 30 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: horrors with me. Professor at University Memphis Law School, Stephen Mulroy, 31 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: former federal prosecutor, former NYPD John Cardillo, forensics psychologist, Doctor 32 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: Daniel Bober, Professor Forensics, Jacksonville State University, author of Blood 33 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: Beneath My Feet on Amazon. Joseph Scott Morgan, but first 34 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: to Leavipage Crime Online dot Com investigative reporter, what yes, Nancy, 35 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: this is a horrific case. Martha Krouch, who's fifty three 36 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: years old, and her husband, Timothy Krouch, who's fifty seven, 37 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: They were arrested in New Mexico with horrific allegations of 38 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: child abuse. And apparently there's a long history of this. 39 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: They've been investigated in Alaska, Kansas, Missouri, Montana and other states, 40 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,679 Speaker 1: and when the investigation would heat up, they would move 41 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: and that's how they escaped this for years. But the allegations, 42 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: generally speaking, are that they would think that their daughters 43 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: were fat, so they would chain them up in beds, 44 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: only feed them one meal a day, usually ramen, and 45 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: as punishment, if they gained weight or they wouldn't be 46 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: out of weight, that satisfactory to the parents. They would 47 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: kill their pets, dogs, puppies and kittens, and they would 48 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: beat the kids. I mean, it's horrific allegations that keeps 49 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: you up at night when you think about them. Take 50 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: a listen to our friend Brittany Costello at KOB four. 51 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: But the allegations in these documents accused the parents of 52 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: much worse. Children who grew up in that home and 53 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: moved away told police they were brutally beaten. One teen 54 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: girl still living with a couple told police she was 55 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: routinely abused. They reportedly allowed one meal a day, and 56 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: that Martha would punish them by killing their pets. She 57 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: told police Martha took the puppies and put them in 58 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: a giant pot and boiled them while they watched. I 59 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: almost can't take it in to forensic psychologist doctor Daniel Bober. 60 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: Have you ever noticed, doctor Bober? And I see it 61 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: with comments online. People seem to care more about animal 62 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: abuse than they do about child abuse. You know, Nancy, 63 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: I'm actually involved in a case like this right now 64 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: with an a severe animal abuser. And I have to 65 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: tell you that you know, people of you animals as 66 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: purely innocent creatures, and so you're almost better off killing 67 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: a person than an animal. For some people, because they 68 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: love their dogs, they love their cats, and so a 69 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: case like this is particularly gruesome to those people. I 70 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: think it may be because animals truly are helpless. I mean, 71 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: at least a human may be able to get out 72 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: a door, unlock a lock, call nine one one. Maybe 73 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: not always, but maybe I think that's the reasoning. I 74 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: want to go to doctor Daniel Bober again on this. 75 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: The mindset. Accusations of boiling puppies, murdering kittens, torturing her children. 76 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: What kind of mindset does a mom have who woul 77 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: like this kind of abuse well, clearly someone who doesn't 78 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: really have a connection to living things. You know, she 79 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: abuses her children in a very similar way as someone 80 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: who just doesn't have the capacity for empathy or remorse 81 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: and doesn't feel anything about the living things around her. 82 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, if these claims are true. To Stephen mulroy, 83 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: Professor at University Memphis Law School, what would be in 84 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: your mind an appropriate punishment. Oh, we've got, you know, 85 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: animal cruelty, child cruelty, aggravated child abuse at a minimum. 86 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: You know, we're talking years some term of years of 87 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,559 Speaker 1: imprisonment for both of them. I would have to think, 88 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: I mean, assuming that the allegations are correct, and right 89 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: now they're allegations, but there's so many different accounts from 90 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: so many different children that overlap and reinforce a strong 91 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: reason to think that this happened. So we're talking aggravated 92 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: child abuse and child cruelty for years in prison. And 93 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: my question is, how has it been the case that 94 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: these children are still in the custody of the parents 95 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: for so long? Why weren't these children removed from their 96 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 1: custody years ago? In light of the apparently years and 97 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: years of abuse that we were hearing about The daughters 98 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: of the House of Horrors couple Martha and Timothy Crouch 99 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: describe how their monster mom beat them severely, kept them 100 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: chained to a bed, one for three years, chained to 101 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: a bed from the age of eight to make a 102 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: lose weight, and forced them to witness their newborn kittens 103 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: being beaten to death with a hammer. I agree. How 104 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: did they manage to keep custody of these children? Fifteen children, 105 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: eight sons, seven daughters, their home dubbed a house of horrors. 106 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: The mom charged with child abuse, cruelty to animals, including 107 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: forcing the children to watch while she boiled puppies alive. Interesting, 108 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: of course, that can this type of child cruelty tin 109 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: can be twenty to life behind bars. But it's really interesting, 110 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: is it not? And I'm going to throw this to 111 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: John Cardillo, former NYPD and all the cases of child 112 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: cruelty and child abuse, people blame always blame the mom more. 113 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: But a dad was involved in this as well. Why 114 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: is that? You know? I think because they feel they're 115 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: they're supposed to be the nurturers. Nancy. I mean, these 116 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: cases always shocked me. I'm an animal guy, right, I've 117 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: got three dogs, three horses, I'm fostering another horse that 118 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: was malnourished to get them back to help. So these 119 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: always bothered me, and they always bothered me when I'd 120 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: walk into these scenes sadly I did with animals severely 121 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: abused torture. Boy, listen to this. I asked you about 122 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: child abust and you're talking about the animal abuse. I'm 123 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: not faulting you, but that goes back to what Bober 124 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: and I were talking about. How people you get so 125 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: upset and I don't blame them when animals armist treated. Well, 126 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm going my question to you, as in your prect 127 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: and as a cop in a New York PD, people 128 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: tend to blame the moms more than the dads. Why 129 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: is that? The reason? The reason I think, and I 130 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: did a lot of work as well with the National 131 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: Center for Missing and Exploited Children, is that we find 132 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: in these abuse cases, especially where they're sexual abuse as 133 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: well as the child abuse, the perpetrators are oftentimes men, 134 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: and so the expectation is, because that the women are 135 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: not the perpetrators, they should be the ones to blow 136 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: the whistle. It's perceived as far more heinous. Whether that's 137 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: scientifically fair and accurate or not, it's perceived as far 138 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: more heenez by the public and by law enforcement. When 139 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: the woman is a perpetrator, is a co conspirator in 140 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: all this because you expect the mom. Look, I had 141 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: a case with an eight year old girl. The stepdad 142 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: locked himself in the bathroom with her and he tried 143 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: to manually molest her. Luckily, the mom kicked in the 144 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: bathroom door, slashed him with a butcher knife. He jumped 145 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: out the fire escape, told her for a coat. It 146 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: was December in the Bronx and she was our best asset. 147 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: She told us where he went when she played the 148 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: role and said, okay, I understand, I'll get you the coat, 149 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: and scribbled down on a piece of paper where he 150 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: was and we rolled around a few blocks away and 151 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: picked him up. We expect all moms to react that way. 152 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: She was married to the guy for twelve years. The 153 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: minute he touched her daughter that went out the window, 154 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: she wanted to kill him. So when they don't act 155 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: that way, when they're not Mama bear, we look at 156 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: that as particularly hanus. Take a listen to our friend 157 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: at KOB four. This is Brittany Castello. One child claimed 158 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: he was beaten, shop, stabbed and run over by his 159 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: parents and even had babies still inside his arm. Another 160 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: daughter even said she was put on a fat chain 161 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: for three years to prevent her from getting food because 162 00:09:44,120 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: she was chubby.

This is with 172 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: felon accounts of child abuse, extreme cruelty to children, obstruction 173 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: of the investigation into child abuse. What she has had 174 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: her bond lowered? At District court, Judge Curtis Gurley ordered 175 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: her bond to be reduced from fifty thousand dollars to 176 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars in cash at ten percent. What's the 177 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: judge's name, Curtis Gurley? Curtis Gurley. Catch this. The husband 178 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: facing charges is now requesting his wife be released on 179 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: her own recognisance. Do you think that's going to happen? 180 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: Let me throw that to you, Joseph Scott Morgan. Well, 181 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: we've seen certainly seen more bizarre things happen than that. 182 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, to his owner. You know, 183 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: they're going to go back into the same cycle they 184 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: were previously in Nan seeing this terrifying. And one more 185 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: point here along along the way we you just mentioned 186 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: just a moment ago. I think maybe it was Levi 187 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,719 Speaker 1: that many of these these children have now you know, 188 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: they're now adults, okay, and my thought is is that 189 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: they could be having children of their own at this point. Tim, 190 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: that's the door for something. It's really dark. That is, 191 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: they're going to bring these other small children around these 192 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 1: people potentially, And if that doesn't strike fear in your heart, 193 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what would to. Stephen mulroy, professor at 194 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: University Memphis Law School. Now the daughters are speaking out, 195 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: they've gotten a few years older, they are not afraid 196 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: to speak out anymore. Could that result in more charges? 197 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: Well quite possibly, depending on what they say. I mean, 198 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: you know, we've we've heard such a lengthy list of 199 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: charges already. I mean, you tell them, it's kind of 200 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: hard to believe that it could get any worse. But 201 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: since we've got these adult children who are out from 202 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: under their custody and no longer have anything to fear, 203 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 1: you know, and more attention has been brought to the 204 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: case and they're investigating it, I'm sure that we probably 205 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: will here about more. Well, what about the problem of 206 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: statute of limitations. Well, yeah, that's that's true. Some of 207 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: these things are probably going to be barred by the 208 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 1: statute of limitations. You know. I would imagine that some 209 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: of these things are stories that we are ten, twelve 210 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: years old, and they may be barred by the statute 211 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: of limitations. But it sounds from what the reporting that 212 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: we've been hearing, is that there are going to be 213 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: more than enough charges within the statute of limitations to 214 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: put these people away for a while of their convictions. 215 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: You know, I'm thinking on what you just says, Stephen 216 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 1: mulroy about the statute of limitations on some of these 217 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, in many jurisdictions, and we're seeing this in 218 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: the r. Kelly case. Statutes of limitations and what that 219 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: means is say I let's blame Jackie. Say Jackie goes 220 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: to Macy's and stills about five hundred dollars worth of lingerie, 221 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: push up bras her weakness, and they don't prosecute her 222 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: for ten years. Guess what the statute of limitations has run. 223 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: It's too late. You have to prosecute in a timely manner. 224 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: There is one crime when no statute, and that's a murder. However, 225 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: many jurisdictions are changing the statute on X attacks and 226 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: child abuse. So when the child, for instance, has the 227 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: memory later in life or gets to a point where 228 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: they're not afraid to speak out, the statute is waved. 229 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: And out of all these jurisdictions Alaska, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, 230 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: and Moore, certainly one of them will have waved a 231 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: statute so this case can go forward. Could somebody tell 232 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,239 Speaker 1: me why this woman has put herself in a wheelchair 233 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: and rolled herself into court. Because she surely had the 234 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: strength and the dexterity to hammer kitten's dead, to boil puppies, 235 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: and to chain her daughter to a bed, according to them, 236 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: and now she suddenly has to be in a wheelchair. 237 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: What about it LEVI. Yeah, if you look at her 238 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: mug shut she also has an oxygen tank on her 239 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: as well. So I think that she is claiming to 240 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: be sick, and she's claiming that she's not the proper 241 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: medical care in jail, and her husband is one her 242 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: out and the husband is out. He's charged with a 243 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: misdemeanor of obstructing justice and the investigation into this case. 244 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: And he's actually collecting disability twenty two hundred dollars a month. Oh, 245 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: dear Lord in heaven. Well, maybe Judge Curtis Gurley will 246 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: invite them to stay at his house since he's so 247 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: quick to reduce her bond. We wait as justice unfolds. 248 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: Nancy Grace crime story, signing off goodbye friend,
