Speaker 2: men sex assault her in a car's back seat while

5
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 2: the driver mayhe rot in Hell videos the whole attack,

6
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: and at least one perp can be heard laughing. Then

7
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: they leave Maddie on an empty street, where she's immediately

8
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,000

10
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 2: Judge who's presiding over this case has a son who's

11
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: a convicted serial rapist. And this is the same judge

12
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 2: who lests one rapist after the next walk free. And

13
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: I am telling you tonight, this is not justice. Good evening,

00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 2: I mean grace, this is Crime Stories. Thank you for

00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: being with us.

16
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 4: Now, I guess for ryand one fifty am. By this point,

17
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 4: Maddie is drunk. She's been seen falling inside the bar,

18
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 4: falling outside the bar, but she and these four men

19
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 4: decide to leave the bar. They walk to a vehicle

20
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 4: that's being driven by Cason Carver. They leave Reggie's, they

21
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 4: drive a short distance where they pull over.

22
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 5: Cason Carver eighteen takes several videos from the driver's seat,

23
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 5: narrating what's happening while Madison Brooks is in the back

24
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 5: seat of his car. In one selfie video, Carver yells,

25
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 5: these guys are crazy, they've been a raper. In another,

26
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 5: Brooks can be heard shouting get off me over loud music.

27
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 5: Several videos taken outside the car show Keve in Washington

28
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 5: pushing Brooks down against the seat. Desmond Carver is seen

29
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 5: with his pants down, appearing to penetrate Brooks while the

30
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 5: other men cheer.

31
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: Guys, you're seeing video first get to wb ORZ by

32
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: the defense, the video given to WAFB by the defense,

33
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 2: and somehow they think that's going to help them. No way,

34
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 2: Guys with me an all star panel to make sense

35
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 2: of what we know right now. But the bombshell that

36
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: the judge sitting on this case, presiding on this case

37
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 2: has a son, which is hard for me to believe

38
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: this who she actually represented in a serial rape case

39
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: and he got decades behind bars. She did everything she

40
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: could to save him, but it didn't work, and now

41
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: she's letting one rapist after the next off. I want

42
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: to go back to what happened the night this beautiful.

43
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 3: Young girl, her whole life in front of her. What

44
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 3: happened that night.

45
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: Joining me is her mother, who I now consider to

46
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,119
Speaker 2: be a friend, Ashley Bostart.

47
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 3: But listen to this.

48
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 6: It's how she was essentially dumped on the side of

49
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 6: the road after what they're claiming was a consensual ride.

50
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: In the middle of the night, in the rain, heavy

51
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 2: traffic flying by. They put her out of the car

52
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: and bam, she gets run over and dies after she

53
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 2: gets raped.

54
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: That's what the state says.

55
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 6: That's not how someone who was part of a consensual

56
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 6: sexual escapade is treated. That's how a victim is revictimized

57
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 6: and thrown out like garbage.

58
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 7: After a long night of drinking, Monty Brooks nineteen leaves

59
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 7: Reggie's Bar with four young men who offer to give

60
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 7: her a ride home. A few blocks from the bar,

61
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,839
Speaker 7: the driver pulls over and starts videoing as the two

62
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 7: men in the backseat have sex with an extremely intoxicated Brooks. Afterwards,

63
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 7: Brooks is unable to tell the men her address, and,

64
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 7: according to them, insists on getting out.

65
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: Of the car.

66
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 7: Just before three am, a lift driver strikes something in

67
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 7: the road. It's Mattie Brooks who dies of her injuries.

68
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 3: At a hospital.

69
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 2: I don't believe one bit of this video given to

70
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: Wborz by the defense and to WAFB by the defense,

71
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: and somehow they believe that's going to help them.

72
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: Before I get.

73
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 2: On this judge who has let one rapist after the

74
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: next walk free, I want to go to Ashley Boaster. Ashley,

75
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 2: I do not know how you put one foot in

76
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 2: front of the other. I know you are dedicated to

77
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: raising your other children, but if you would, I'd like

78
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 2: to take you back to that night that you learned

79
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 2: your girl, Maddie was in the hospital.

80
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 8: What happened, It was a complete nightmare.

81
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 9: I got a call from the hospital stating that she

82
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 9: was in credible condition.

83
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 8: They didn't tell me a lot of information. I had

84
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 8: my parents drive me.

85
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 9: There because I knew that I wouldn't be able to

86
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 9: safely drive myself to the hospital. And immediately when I

87
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 9: saw her, I knew that something terrible had happened and

88
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 9: that she was with our Lord in heaven.

89
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 8: So it's been a complete nightmare.

90
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 9: The worst possible thing that can happen to anyone happened

91
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 9: to my daughter. And not only was she my daughter,

92
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 9: but she was my best friend. We did everything together.

93
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 9: The best memories I have are spent being her mother,

94
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 9: and that's what I have to hold onto every day.

95
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 8: That's what gets me out of bed.

96
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 9: I'm trying to live as well as I can until

97
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 9: I'm reunited with her in heaven.

98
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 3: Ashley, everything that you just said.

99
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: Echoes what I feel in my heart, and I think

100
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 2: a lot of mothers feel the same way. When I

101
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 2: am upset or distressed or even can't sleep. It's like

102
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: a movie plays in my head of all these wonderful

103
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 2: times I've had with John, David and Lucy, my children,

104
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: and the best years of my life have been the

105
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: years that I've had with them. You said that that

106
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 2: night you went to the hospital, and I know that

107
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: Maddie was still alive when you got there, because you've

108
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: told me that in the past. But you believe, as

109
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 2: you say, she had gone on to our Lord.

110
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 3: Why do you say.

111
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 8: That, Well, they told me immediately that she was brain dead,

112
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 8: so they were keeping her alive.

113
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 9: They were keeping her heart beating and pumping her with

114
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 9: all different types of medication just to see her organs

115
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 9: so that she could be a donor. And we were

116
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 9: also waiting for her dad to travel from Florida to.

117
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 8: Be at the hospital. So Mattie was there and she

118
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 8: was breathing, but she was not there.

119
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: Do you think at any point she came to and

120
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 2: knew you were there.

121
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 9: I felt her there, and I knew that something terrible

122
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 9: had happened, and it was going to be my mission

123
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 9: to fight for her and to honor her and her

124
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 9: legacy by helping others, which is what we are trying

125
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 9: to do through her foundation.

126
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: With me is Mattie's mother, Ashley boastered Ashally, when you

127
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: got to the hospital and you were rushed to her room,

128
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: did she even look like herself?

129
00:07:54,680 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 9: No? No, she was extremely swollen. There was tons of

130
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 9: blood leaking out of her body. She did not She

131
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 9: was a very tiny, petite little girl. She was five

132
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 9: to one, maybe one hundred pounds, and I could tell

133
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 9: that it was her, but it definitely she did not

134
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 9: look the same.

135
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 3: What did she look like?

136
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 9: I could hold her hands, I could hold her hands,

137
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 9: but I didn't want to look at anything else.

138
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 8: I didn't want that image to be in my head.

139
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 8: I wanted to remember her the way that she was.

140
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: You know, though, Ashley, I never saw my fiancee's body

141
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 2: after he was murdered. At the time, I thought that's

142
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 2: what I wanted, and sometimes I wish that I had

143
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 2: because for the longest time I couldn't accept that he

144
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: had been killed. So I don't know. I'm just a

145
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 2: trial lawyer. I don't know what's right or wrong. Tell

146
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: me when you learned what had happened.

147
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 9: I suspected everything that had happened. I suspected just based

148
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 9: on the circumstance, the time of day, the fact that

149
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 9: she was alone without her cell phone, that something terrible

150
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 9: had happened. And I guess About a week or so

151
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 9: after the accident, the detectives brought us in and told

152
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 9: us more of what they had learned through their investigation.

153
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 9: I had to leave the room. Honestly, I fell to

154
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 9: my knees. What do you mean, I just fell to

155
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 9: my knees.

156
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 10: It was.

157
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 8: A nightmare, I mean an absolute nightmare.

158
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 2: Which part of what happened to Maddie, after all you

159
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 2: had been through, after you had married your girl, which

160
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 2: part of this scenario made you fall.

161
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 9: To your knees the last few seconds of her life

162
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 9: and what transpired. But I do hold on to the

163
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 9: fact that the people that were in that vehicle are

164
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 9: not the last people that were with her. I know

165
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 9: that God sent those two guardian angels to be with her,

166
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 9: to protect her, to pray over her, and those are

167
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 9: the last two people that were with her, and that

168
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 9: does give me some peace.

169
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 3: Ashley.

170
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 11: I feel that I know you because we've talked so much,

171
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 11: and I know your disposition, and I know how much

172
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 11: this case means to you.

173
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 3: So I doubt knowing you, that you're going to answer

174
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 3: this question.

175
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 2: But Ashley Bost, what do you think about a lady

176
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 2: judge that represented her son who is a serial rapist.

177
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 2: And I've got State v Tailor in my hand. I've

178
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: poured over every word of what her son did and

179
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 2: it's not in question because he pled guilty, and before

180
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 2: pleading guilty, I have read the transcript. The prosecutor gave

181
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 2: a rendition of what he did and he agreed that's

182
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 2: what he did, and his mother, who was now a judge,

183
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 2: was representing him on that guilty plate. A serial rapist

184
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 2: who attacks multiple teen girls in the night, wearing a mask,

185
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 2: in one case, wearing a monkey mask, who sneaks into

186
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: the girl's room, holds the sheet against their mouth, either

187
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 2: brandishes a knife or a gun and repeatedly rapes them,

188
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 2: threatening he will kill them if they scream. After this,

189
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: after representing her son trying to get him a good

190
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 2: sentence on serial rape, she is now letting one rapist

191
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 2: go free after the next. That is a fact in writing.

192
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 2: I've read the corproceedings myself. How do you feel about

193
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:28,559
Speaker 2: this woman presiding over the men that the state says

194
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 2: raped your daughter.

195
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 8: I can't comment on the judge, Ashley.

196
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 2: It gives me no joy in saying any of the

197
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: things that I am saying tonight, but they are true

198
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 2: and I know you and I know you will not

199
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 2: speak against the judge.

200
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 1: Crime stories With Nancy Greece.

201
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 2: Joining me in addition to Maddie's mother Ashley, who was

202
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: working tirelessly on the Maddie Brooks Foundation, Karen Shala is

203
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 2: joining me out of Baton Rouge, Emmy and Muau Award

204
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 2: winning investigative reporter and star of Unfiltered with Kieren dot Com.

205
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 3: Karen, thank you for.

206
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 12: Being with us, Thanks for having me.

207
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: I know that you are investigating a much wider concern

208
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 2: about judges letting rapists walk free, but could you just

209
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 2: give me in a nutshell what this judge has done.

210
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 13: So I think the most glaring part here is going

211
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 13: to be that there was a guy who was convicted

212
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 13: in nineteen seventy two for a deed for a rape

213
00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 13: and fifty he was given actually she vacated them sentence,

214
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 13: but he was given life for rape. So he goes

215
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 13: before a judge and asks for a reduced sentence because

216
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 13: he wants parole instead.

217
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 8: She ended up pretty much saying, hey, you're free to go.

218
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 3: You can't do that.

219
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 13: The district attorney here is absolutely livid that he's never

220
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 13: heard of such a thing and that the suspect did

221
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 13: not go before her asking to get rid of his

222
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 13: sentence completely. And there's a process for that. You have

223
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 13: to go before the parole board.

224
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 3: You need to go.

225
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 13: The governor can pardon somebody. A judge cannot sit here

226
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 13: and go simply say you're done. He went before the

227
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 13: judge to ask for a reduced sentence and that's it.

228
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: So he goes before the judge on something completely different

229
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: and the judge cuts him free.

230
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: Let's a rapist walk free. And nobody even asked her to.

231
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: Guys, this is a tip of the iceberg, and I

232
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 2: want this judge off this case. She's not fit to

233
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: preside with this rape case or any other case.

234
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 7: The videos that Case and Carr took the night of

235
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 7: Maddy Brooks alleged to assault have resulted in more charges

236
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 7: for the team. A grand jury indicted Carver for video

237
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 7: voyeurism in addition to the charge of principle to first

238
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 7: and third degree rape. In one of the videos, Carver

239
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 7: left and said they've fin a raper before Brooks was assaulted.

240
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 4: These four men have been charged in this case, two

241
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 4: of them with third degree rape. The other two the

242
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 4: two who were in the front seat of the vehicle.

243
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 4: They have been charged with principles to third degree rape,

244
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 4: which means that they were present for the alleged crime,

245
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 4: but they did nothing to stop it. The question is

246
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 4: was Madison Brooks raped before she died and did any

247
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 4: of these events led up to her death cause it.

248
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 7: Many are concerned that District Judge Gail Horn Ray will

249
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 7: not remain neutral while presiding over the trial of Madison

250
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 7: Brooks four alleged rapists. Last year, Judge Ray reduced an

251
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 7: accused rapists bail, with that allowing prosecutors to argue against

252
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 7: the decision. Just like last month, Ray moved to overturn

253
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 7: a nineteen seventy two rape conviction when asked to consider

254
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 7: allowing the convict parole. Her son, Nelson Taylor Junior, is

255
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 7: also a convicted serial rapist.

256
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: Okay, why is a judge so soft on rape cases?

257
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 3: I think I know why.

258
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 5: Listen Nilsen Taylor Junior, the seventeen year old son of

259
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 5: now judge Gail Horn Rape, is charged with one count

260
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 5: of forcible rape, two counts of aggravated rape, and five

261
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 5: counts of aggravated burglary. Taylor breaks into six homes over

262
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 5: six months with the intent to rape teen girls sleeping inside.

263
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 5: Victims describe a man in a mask who threatens them

264
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 5: with a knife and uses tape to cover their eyes

265
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 5: and mouths. Taylor is connected to the six crimes through

266
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 5: DNA and fingerprints. Detective say seven of Taylor's nine victims

267
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 5: are students at his high school.

268
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 2: Hold on just a moment, Let me go out to

269
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 2: Jarrett Fiorentino, high profile lawyer, former homicide and fellony prosecutor,

270
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: host of True Crime Boss podcast, and Jared Fijarrett Farentino

271
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 2: dot com. Jarrett, let me just read something for you.

272
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: Now.

273
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 2: I'm reading from the Court of Appeals of Louisiana. Okay,

274
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: and I want to circle back to you because I

275
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 2: believe the current case should be a felony murder case.

276
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: A death occurred during the commission of a felony, that

277
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 2: felony being rape. Maddie is dead. Two plus two equals four.

278
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 2: That's a felony murder. I don't know what the hey

279
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 2: this prosecutor is thinking, but that said, I want you

280
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 2: to listen to what I read over these weeks of

281
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 2: preparing six rapes. The judge's son had six rapes. He's

282
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:47,199
Speaker 2: convicted of six rapes. Regarding counts one and two, a

283
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 2: fifteen year old girl awakened in her bedroom by the

284
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 2: presence of an unknown assailant wearing a mask.

285
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 3: Wearing a mask.

286
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 2: Regarding count three, a seventeen year old girl was awakened

287
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 2: in her bedroom by the president and some unknown assailant

288
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 2: wearing a monkey mask. Can you imagine a little teen girl?

289
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he had to change masks. Jarreted Farantina because

290
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: he stupidly left the other mask on the crime scene,

291
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 2: so he had to go get a mask.

292
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: What did he pick? A monkey mask?

293
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen those movies where the assailants are

294
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 2: wearing like pig masks or monkey masks or some kind

295
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 2: of an animal mask.

296
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: They're terrifying to a victim.

297
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: And a young girl wakes up with seemingly a monster

298
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 2: on top of her.

299
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 3: The assailant straddles the girl.

300
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: She screams.

301
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 2: He told her to shut up, push the sheet into

302
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 2: her mouth to keep her quiet. He goes on and

303
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 2: on and on. One has a knife, one has a gun,

304
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 2: mailing tape. This is her son that she fought valiantly

305
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 2: to be treated as a jeevenile, to get five years

306
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 2: probate and GeV jo and now she is sitting on

307
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 2: rape cases, letting one after next walk free.

308
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 14: Farantino, Nancy, it's very concerning. There's a pattern with her son,

309
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 14: and there's a pattern with her. It's the air of impropriety,

310
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 14: it's the smell of a conflict, it's the very crime

311
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 14: before her. She defended her son who should be facing

312
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 14: and serving a life sentence. She let a life inmate

313
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 14: go free, and it wasn't even as prayer for relief,

314
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 14: asking for a break. So this judge needs to step

315
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 14: aside for all the young victims that her son had

316
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 14: and for Maddie and her case for Madison. In her case,

317
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 14: the air of conflict of interest here is too strong.

318
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 14: I am sure she has many cases on her docket

319
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 14: that can keep her plenty busy. Go to a judge

320
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 14: whose son was not a serial rapist that she defended

321
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 14: and got a break. It's that simple, And I'm sure

322
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 14: there's plenty of other capable judges.

323
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 2: And it's not just a sun Farantino. As you're pointing out,

324
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: there are multiple other rapists.

325
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 1: That I know of.

326
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 2: How many are there that I don't know about? I

327
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: mean a completely different jurisdiction thousands of miles away, and

328
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 2: even I know this, what else is there that has

329
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 2: not been uncovered yet? In addition to Maddie's mom with us,

330
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: who is refusing to comment on the judge joining us

331
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 2: Doctor Jeff Klshewski, forensic psychologist, author of Dark Sides, Doctor Kalashevski,

332
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 2: what is it about?

333
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 3: Not just a mask where you know, like Zoro has

334
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 3: just his eyes covered up, but I.

335
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 2: Mean a full long pig mask or a monkey mask

336
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 2: or animal mask. Why does that strike so much fear

337
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 2: in a victim's heart.

338
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 15: Well, it definitely strikes fhere because it's obviously unusual. It's shocking.

339
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 15: But I think what's more important to point out is

340
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 15: when someone utilizes a mask, particularly in the middle of

341
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 15: a sexual assault, payoff for the behavior that they're engaging

342
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 15: in is beyond just a sexual act. The fear and intimidation,

343
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 15: seeing the fear in the victim's face, these are all

344
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 15: things that sort of satisfy that appetite for the violent,

345
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 15: active rape that you talked about earlier.

346
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 7: Nelson Taylor, Junior's mother, acting as his defense attorney, accepts

347
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 7: a plea bargain on his behalf, reducing the aggravated rate

348
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 7: charges to forcible rape, therefore taking a life sentence off

349
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 7: the table. Taylor is sentenced to fifty years in prison,

350
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 7: of which he must serve twenty five years before he

351
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 7: may be eligible for parole. Gail Ray later argues that

352
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 7: Taylor should not have been allowed to enter into a

353
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 7: plea agreement as a miner. The court points out that

354
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 7: Taylor's capacity to enter a plea bargain was a natural

355
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 7: ramification of Taylor being tried as an adult and uphold

356
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 7: his conviction.

357
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 16: Bottom line, she could not walk, she could not speak, clearly,

358
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 16: she had to be helped to the car. She was

359
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 16: that intoxicated she could not consent. Period number two. She's

360
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 16: going to have injury to the vaginal area, possibly the

361
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 16: anal area. There could be tearing, there could be abrasions,

362
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 16: there could be lacerations. She could have bruising from fingertips

363
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 16: where she was being held in position. The pathologist notated

364
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 16: that she had injury consistent with sexual assault.

365
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 2: This young girl stunning, so full of life. I've seen

366
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 2: videos of Maddie and she is bobbling with the joy

367
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 2: of life, just so smart, the whole world in front

368
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 2: of her. But after a horrific rape, not one, not two,

369
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: but according to prosecutors three that the car driver was videoing,

370
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: she was let out of the car and immediately mowed down.

371
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 3: Luckily, two good.

372
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: Samaritans held her hand and stayed with her as she

373
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 2: went on to heaven. Joining me is Mattie's mother, Ashley Boaster. Ashley,

374
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 2: when you agree to join us today, I know that

375
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: you knew you would hear facts of her death and

376
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 2: her treatment again, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry for what

377
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: you're going through. I'm sorry to bring it all back up,

378
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 2: but there are so many rape and homicide victims' families

379
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 2: out there that you can inspire. How do you keep

380
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 2: going forward when you are hearing these facts.

381
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 8: Again, it's very challenging, Nancy.

382
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 9: I focus on where she is right now, and that's

383
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 9: where we all want to be right Our goal is.

384
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 8: To one day make it to heaven, and.

385
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 9: That is what I try to focus on, not the horrific,

386
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 9: terrible things that happened that evening, because if I do,

387
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 9: it will make me sick and I will crawl up

388
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 9: in a bed and not want to leave my bedroom.

389
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 9: But I know that's not what Maddie would want. So

390
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 9: I'm trying to live as well as I can, but

391
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 9: I have my moments and sometimes I do crawl up

392
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 9: in a bed.

393
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 8: Mother's Day was hard. She made me a mother.

394
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 9: We went to church, we went to lunch, and I

395
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 9: needed to cry and spend.

396
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 8: Time alone, and that's what I did. So I take

397
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 8: it day by day.

398
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 2: How do you relieve this has effecting you raising your

399
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 2: other children?

400
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 9: I cherish every single moment. I go to every field trip,

401
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 9: if all of their sports activities.

402
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 8: I live at the baseball field, even when.

403
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 9: It's challenging, which you know, Nancy, being a mother is

404
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 9: the greatest gift, but it's the hardest job that I've

405
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 9: ever had too. But I embrace even the hard times

406
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,719
Speaker 9: where we're up till ten o'clock doing a science project,

407
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 9: because I don't have that anymore.

408
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 8: With Maddie.

409
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 9: All I have is the memories. But I do keep

410
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 9: her alive. She is all over my home. We celebrate

411
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 9: her birthday with a trip, We do things that she

412
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 9: would like, and we honor her every day.

413
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 8: We carry her with us.

414
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: Ashley, you're bringing back a happy memory from just last night.

415
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 2: My son, John David had an assignment where he's supposed

416
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 2: to write a letter from a great great, great great

417
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 2: whoever we could find relative, and he picked his great

418
00:25:54,040 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 2: great grandmother, Louisa Fullwood, who had no education. She never

419
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 2: got to go to school, and her husband would leave

420
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 2: every day to take.

421
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 3: The bus to the courthouse to watch trials.

422
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 2: So she ran the farm, okay, and she with no

423
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 2: not even first grade, saved up enough money and she

424
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 2: would bury the money on the farm in mason jars,

425
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 2: and she.

426
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 3: Paid for the whole farm.

427
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 2: And he had to make the mason jar look authentic,

428
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 2: so it was covered in dirt. It was just we were

429
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 2: up to midnight and you just saying that I bet

430
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 2: you think back on those memories all the time and smile.

431
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 2: But I want to apologize for putting you through this,

432
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 2: and you know you'll go through it again at trial.

433
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 2: I've had moms and I would say, ma'am, you know

434
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 2: you don't have to sit through this, and without fail

435
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: they would say, no, I'm staying right here on the

436
00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 2: front row. I'm not leaving right And here there is

437
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: Ashley Bostert again on the front row, still refusing to

438
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: say a bad word about the judge. You're stronger than

439
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 2: I am, Ashley.

440
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 3: Much stronger than me. Guys, What did we learn from

441
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 3: the autopsy?

442
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 7: According to WBRZ Madison Brooks leaked autopsy report shows Brooks

443
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 7: bac as point two eighty two, twelve percent lower than

444
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 7: the Sheriff's office report of point three p one nine.

445
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 7: While there was no sign of vaginal trauma, there were

446
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 7: abrasions in bruising to brooks backside that the coroner noted

447
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 7: were suspicious of sexual assault. DNA from Kavan Washington was

448
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 7: recovered in brooks genital area, but none of the four

449
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 7: men's DNA was found inside Brooks.

450
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 2: But there was their DNA around Mannie's genital area their DNA,

451
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 2: and I'm curious what type of DNA. Not that it

452
00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: matters to me, because the bruising and the indications on

453
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: her quote backside as they euphemistically call it in the

454
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 2: autopsy report tell me everything I need to know. Joining

455
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 2: me right now, renowned in his field, a domestic violence

456
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 2: and sex assault expert, former sex detective in California, Bill

457
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: Hernandez joining us tonight out of NAPA.

458
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 3: Bill, thank you for being with us. Thank you again.

459
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 2: That segment of the autopsy tells me everything I need

460
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 2: to know.

461
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 10: Explain well, I mean, it's pretty clear that if she

462
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 10: has those injuries to those areas, she was obviously sexually assaulted,

463
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 10: and with her BAC being as high as it was,

464
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 10: there's no possiboy that she could have consented to.

465
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 12: Any of that. And then plus she was heard in

466
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 12: the background on the video telling the telling the suspects

467
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 12: no and to get off of her. So I mean

468
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 12: it's clearly a rape.

469
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 17: So the lack of dnage and that an issue that

470
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 17: says there was no sex, that says there was no rape.

471
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 17: It just means that there was no ejaculation. But he

472
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 17: can also be argued the alternative interpretation to that is

473
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 17: there was no sex. But I think with the video

474
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 17: and all that that's again a move point.

475
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 18: There's saying that she was absolutely in control of saniess

476
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 18: to the sex and that it was consensual. Six her

477
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 18: blood alcohol content came back at point three one nine. Now,

478
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 18: in the beginning, I myself kept saying, Okay, it's four

479
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 18: times over the legal limit, but she was under age,

480
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 18: so the legal limit for anyone under age is point

481
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 18: zero two. Actually she was sixteen times over the legal limit.

482
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 18: Law enforcement has also said there's no possible way that

483
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 18: she could have consented to it, making it rape.

484
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 3: Absolutely no way that she should give consent.

485
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 2: And not only that, what about this bizarre video that

486
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 2: these let me just put it out there, a holes

487
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: took during the rapes. According to the state, of course,

488
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: they have not been proving guilty at truck They have

489
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: not been proven guilty at trial, but they gave very

490
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 2: detailed statements, very detailed statements about what had happened to Maddie.

491
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 2: In fact, the ones in the front seat rotating into

492
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: the backseat so they.

493
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 3: Could also assault her. Take a listen to this.

494
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 7: The videos that Keison Carver took the night of Maddie

495
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 7: Brooks alleged assault have resulted in more charges for the team.

496
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 7: A grand jury indicted Carver for video voyeurism in addition

497
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 7: to the charge of principle to first and third degree rape.

498
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 7: In one of the videos, Carver left and said they've

499
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 7: been a raper before Brooks was assaulted.

500
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 2: Those videos first given a WBRZ and WAFB by the

501
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 2: defense who Kieren Shawla, we were hearing you earlier, Emmy

502
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 2: and Murrow Award winning investigative reporter at Unfiltered with Kieren Karen.

503
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: I don't know how they think these videos are going

504
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 2: to help them.

505
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 3: What can you tell us about the videos?

506
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 13: Well, the fact that there were additional charges just because

507
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 13: the videos came out. There's one reason that sometimes releasing

508
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 13: every single thing is not the best idea.

509
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 8: I get it.

510
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 13: The defense attorneys released this hoping to kind of show that, hey,

511
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 13: Madison was asking for this. This has kind of been

512
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 13: their defense this entire time.

513
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 2: What did I just hear the words? The defense theory

514
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 2: is that Maddie asked for this.

515
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 13: Well, because they're claiming, hey, she was even though she

516
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 13: was drinking, she wasn't to a point where she was raped.

517
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 13: This was consensual. That's been the defense's defense the entire time.

518
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 13: This was consensual. That was the reason for releasing these videos.

519
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 3: Guys, take a listen to this.

520
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 4: Now, over the course of the next hour, Maddie is

521
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 4: either raped or has consensual sex with two of these

522
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 4: young men. They taked hard. One gets out of the

523
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 4: vehicle while the other has sex with her or raped her.

524
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 4: Then they swomp over. Now while this happens, Taysen Carver

525
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 4: the driver, I'm the oldest defendant. His name is ever

526
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 4: At Lee. They're in the two front seats of this vehicle.

527
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 3: Okay, so how that's not rape?

528
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 2: I don't know, Karen, how many of these defendants are

529
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 2: actually charged with rape.

530
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 3: So three of them are charged with rape itself.

531
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 13: But Everett Lee, who was actually one of the uncles

532
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 13: of one of the boys, he is charged with principle

533
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 13: because he was right there. Now, I want to point

534
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 13: out that the driver, he actually threw court through the

535
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 13: court document, should I say, they're claiming that he did

536
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 13: not actually rape her. However, he videoed it and he

537
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 13: never stopped it. That's why his charges from the District

538
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 13: Attorney's office were upgraded to include.

539
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 1: Rape crime stores with Nancy Grace.

540
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 2: Guys the fact that this judge has now been documented

541
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 2: as representing before she was a judge, her serial rapist son,

542
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 2: and now letting one rapist go after the next.

543
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: Listen.

544
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 5: Donald Link confesses to raping a woman at knife point,

545
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 5: and he is sentenced to life in prison without the

546
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 5: possibility of parole. After several appeals, the Louisiana State Supreme

547
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 5: Court affirms Link's judgment. A year later, in a second

548
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 5: bid for a new trial, Link claims the jury's instructions

549
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 5: were flawed, but the Supreme Court again confirms the trial

550
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 5: was fair. This year, Link asked the court to consider

551
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 5: amending his sentence to allow parole. Instead, Judge Gialehorn Ray

552
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 5: overturned the rape conviction.

553
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 2: I don't even know what to say about that, Jared Ferrentino.

554
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: It's absolutely unheard of, and that's on appeal. So a

555
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 2: guy who is a convicted rapist comes to her and

556
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 2: the request is that he be allowed to be considered

557
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 2: for parole. Instead, she throws out, nobody even asked her

558
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 2: to do this, even the defense. She throws out his

559
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 2: whole case, and he walks freight right there, right there.

560
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 2: Nobody asked her to do that, and she was blaming

561
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: a jury charge, which is everybody. A jury instruction is

562
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 2: after the state and the defense give the closing arguments,

563
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 2: the judge instructs the jury on the law by which

564
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 2: they are to judge the case. In other words, the

565
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: definition of homicide is X, the definition of rape is X,

566
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 2: and they have to hear the law and it's got

567
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: to be correct verbatim.

568
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: That was not even an issue.

569
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: She used that as a pretext to let a rapist

570
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 2: go Farantino.

571
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 14: I've never seen a case thrown out for a bad

572
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 14: jury instruction by the judge at that level. If there

573
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 14: was prosecutorial misconduct, if there was conduct that was beyond

574
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 14: the pale, here's the best. They weren't even asking for that.

575
00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 14: The DA is in shock over that decision. He didn't

576
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 14: go into court prepared to even combat that request.

577
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:03,919
Speaker 3: Right.

578
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 14: The judge gave them a gift which shows a pattern,

579
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 14: which is that she has a bias toward rapists.

580
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,479
Speaker 12: I'm sorry, that's just the way it wis.

581
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: Well, hold on, I hope you're sitting down. You may

582
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 2: need to lay down for this farantine. I listen, there's

583
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,280
Speaker 2: another case DeAndre Cox.

584
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 7: DeAndre Cox is accused of raping his preteen neighbor twice

585
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 7: at gunpoint. Judge Gail Horn Ray sets Cox's bond at

586
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 7: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Four days later, Ray

587
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 7: lowers Cox's bond to one hundred thousand dollars without a hearing.

588
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 7: Cox is released the same day to house arrest at

589
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 7: his grandmother's home within one hundred feet at the victim's

590
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 7: residence in violation of a protection order. At a hearing

591
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 7: over the matter, Ray refused to increase the bond and

592
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 7: ruled that Cox must now reside with his mother. The

593
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,959
Speaker 7: victim's mother says Cox's family has harassed her daughter ever

594
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 7: since his release.

595
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 19: The toxicology obviously shows the lack of consent because it

596
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 19: was drug facilitated sexual assault. So whether they admitted to

597
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 19: doing it and she wanted it, they could admit that

598
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 19: all day, but it wasn't consensual. That it was drug facilitated.

599
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,359
Speaker 19: So either way knowingly facilitated it and it was done.

600
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 2: It's there joining me in all star panel to make

601
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 2: sense of what we are learning today. If this judge

602
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 2: stays on this case, it will be a huge travesty

603
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 2: of justice. I know that Mattie's mother, Ashley Boaster, is

604
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,959
Speaker 2: refusing to comment on whether the judge should be thrown

605
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 2: off the case or not. You're stronger than me, Ashley,

606
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 2: There's no question about that. But Ashley, do you really

607
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 2: believe in your wildest imaginations that your daughter would consent

608
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 2: to have sex in the backseat of a car with

609
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 2: three guys while another guy up front videoed it. Do

610
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 2: you really think that happened.

611
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 8: No, I know that didn't happen.

612
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 3: It did not happen. That did not happened. And what

613
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: about the fact.

614
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 2: That these purpose gave detailed confessions about what happened that night.

615
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 20: Listen in the reports. The initial reports when they were

616
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:20,320
Speaker 20: all arrested were very detailed, and I remember that he

617
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 20: did not want to be there and he didn't want

618
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 20: to use his vehicle. But one of the main reasons

619
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 20: that the district attorney actually helped his charge to first

620
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 20: degree principal or first degree is because he did allow

621
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 20: that and he didn't leave.

622
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 2: Joining me Bill Hernandez joining the Sadam Napa sex assault

623
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 2: detective in California, Bill, thank you for being with us.

624
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 2: Detailed statements by the defendants, and you know they're all

625
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 2: like it. It says, thereby damning themselves as well, because.

626
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 3: One for all and all for one co.

627
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 2: Defendants in the car while this happened at the very best.

628
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 12: Right they should be.

629
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 10: They're all guilty of the charges that they're facing right now.

630
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,280
Speaker 10: I mean, they all knew what was going to happen.

631
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 10: They talked about it, they were a video recording it,

632
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 10: and she even said no, and they all had a principle.

633
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 12: And we're actors in this rate too.

634
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 2: Karen Shaula is joining US award winning investigative reporter who

635
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 2: is a star Unfiltered with Kiaren.

636
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 3: Karen. I just can't believe that the judge is not

637
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 3: stepping down all on her own. What's her problem?

638
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 13: I wish I could tell you that it's interesting that

639
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 13: we have cases coming up with judges and it's not

640
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 13: just her. There are other cases where we've covered with

641
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 13: other judges in the same jurisdiction. This is the nineteenth

642
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 13: JDC in ban Reach, that is East Bannon Reach Parish.

643
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 13: They're not going to talk to the media because they claim, hey,

644
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:53,919
Speaker 13: it's an ongoing case.

645
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 8: You can call their office.

646
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 13: You usually get no comment and then you're hung up

647
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 13: on majority of the times the district attorneys fighting these cases.

648
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 13: If it's not with the First Circuit Court of Appeal,

649
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 13: it's Louisiana Supreme Court. And honestly, the last several cases

650
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 13: with some of these judges in our jurisdiction, they're just

651
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 13: getting tossed out NonStop with Louisiana Supreme Court overturning or

652
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 13: reversing the charges back to the original what it was,

653
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 13: and instead where the judges are overturning cases or vacating

654
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 13: in the case with Donald Link that also is now

655
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 13: being challenged with the Supreme Court.

656
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,360
Speaker 2: From what I understand, the video and I don't know

657
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 2: what kind of mind would choose to video this horrible

658
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 2: sex assault on Madnie, But in the video it's very

659
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 2: overwhelming madeo of them holding her down and yelling that

660
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 2: they're going to rape her. I don't know what else

661
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 2: is needed, but I do not trust this judge overseeing

662
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 2: this case.

663
00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 13: Well, and especially number one. You've already said it. Her son,

664
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 13: she represented him, and now she's a judge over it.

665
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 13: But then look at what she just did a few

666
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 13: weeks ago with a guy who was serving life, and

667
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 13: he did not even ask for what she gave him.

668
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 13: She vacated his sentence. We've discussed this repeatedly that it's

669
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,439
Speaker 13: unheard of, and it's not just unheard of there even

670
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 13: our local district Attorney hill Or Moore is just baffled

671
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 13: by something with this that he did not ask for

672
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 13: a vacation vacate. He askeds to simply reduce the charge

673
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 13: so he could actually be eligible for paroles. Right, So

674
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 13: it just goes to show that it's almost like she

675
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 13: has a soft corner for rapists. Her son is a

676
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 13: convicted rapist. This Donald Link was a convicted rapist.

677
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 8: They're not.

678
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 13: It's not that they haven't gone to trial yet, so

679
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 13: it's not a innocent until proven guilty.

680
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 3: They've been proven guilty.

681
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 2: I want to go to Ashley Boster. This is Maddie's mother, Ashley.

682
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 2: If you kids speak out today to other family members,

683
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 2: moms and dads all across our country and to write

684
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 2: victims themselves.

685
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: What are your words? What's your message?

686
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 8: Cherish your babies, cherish every single moment with them, and.

687
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 9: Teach your kids to be a leader, to step up

688
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 9: for what's right. So many people could have intervened that

689
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 9: night and none of this would have happened. Teach them

690
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 9: to if they see something, to do something, to be

691
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 9: proactive if things don't look right, help someone, even if

692
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 9: you don't know who they are.

693
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,240
Speaker 8: Just be that leader, be the voice of action.

694
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 3: Ashley Bostert, your mouth to God's ear.

695
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 2: We stop and we remember American hero police Officer Jonah Oswald, Fairway, Kansas.

696
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 2: Just twenty nine. Oswald shot and killed in the line

697
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 2: of duty. He was a US Army Reserve that now

698
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 2: survived by grieving wife Hannah into beautiful children with a

699
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 2: life sentence with no dad. American hero Officer Jonah Oswald.

700
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 2: I want to thank all of our guests, but especially

701
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 2: to Maddie's mother, Ashley Boastered. But thank you to all
