1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Crime a art hourly update, breaking.

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:06,279
Speaker 2: Crime news Now, I'm Drew Nelson. A Florida surgeon mistakenly

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 2: removes a man's liver instead of his spleen, leading to

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 2: his death on the operating table. William Bryan was seventy

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: years old. He's from Alabama, went to Ascension Sacred Heart

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,319
Speaker 2: Emerald Coast Hospital in Miramar, Florida, experiencing severe pain in

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 2: his left side. Doctor said he needed his spleen removed.

8
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,959
Speaker 2: They convinced him and his wife Beverly, to have the

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: surgery right away, warning that he could face serious risks

10
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: if he even left the hospital. Beverly tells Waaf he

11
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: bled to death on the operating table.

12
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: Everyone knows you can't live without your liver. It's about

13
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: the same thing as if they had pulled out his her.

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 2: The mistake was only discovered after the surgery. The surgeon,

15
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: doctor Thomas Schechnovsky, told Beverly that her husband's spleen was

16
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: four times its normal size and had moved to the

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: other side of his body, But typical anatomy places the

18
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: liver on the upper right side of the body and

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 2: the spleen on the left. The family later learned that

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: Brian's spleen was still inside him and had a small cyst,

21
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: which was not life threatening. Beverly Bryant's lawyer says this

22
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: is not Sheknovsky's first mistake. In twenty twenty three, Shachnovsky

23
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 2: removed part of a pancreas and seven and adrenal gland

24
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,279
Speaker 2: in a similar incident. That case was settled out of court.

25
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,919
Speaker 2: Quote my husband died while helpless on the operating room table.

26
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: I don't want anyone else to die due to his incompetence.

27
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 2: Meaning the surgeon. Walton County Sheriff's Office is investigating the death.

28
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: They are working with the Medical Examiner's office in the

29
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,919
Speaker 2: State Attorney's office to see if a crime did take place.

30
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 2: Shechnovsky's medical license is still active. The hospital has begun

31
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: its own investigation, but has not commented further. Beverly is

32
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: calling for both civil and criminal proceedings. Her lawyer says, quote,

33
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 2: we want justice. This was a preventable tragedy.

34
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 3: I'm Nicole Parton. Jennifer Gladheil, a wealthy mother from Utah,

35
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 3: has been arrested and charged with murder an obstruction of

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 3: justice after allegedly shooting her husband Matthew Johnson as he

37
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: slept in their million dollar home. Reports indicate that Gledhill

38
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: confessed to killing Johnson and disposing of his body in

39
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 3: a shallow grave. Authorities discovered a large blood stain in

40
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 3: the couple's home in Cottonwood Heights, a suburb of Salt

41
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 3: Lake City, where Johnson was shot. Gledheil is also accused

42
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: of purchasing a new mattress to replace the one her

43
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 3: husband died on. The case became suspicious when Johnson went

44
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: missing after failing to show up for work with the

45
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: Utah National Guard. Gledhill reported her husband missing to police.

46
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 3: A few days later, his truck was spotted nearby. Sergeant

47
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: Gary Young, come.

48
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 4: I'm believing you know it's a residential neighborhood that maybe

49
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 4: somebody saw something. Yeah, it's not normal for him. Phone

50
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 4: and another avenue that we would investigate. No sign of

51
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 4: him because we found his pickup truck about a block

52
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 4: from his house. Or check what neighbors and then possible

53
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 4: some doorbell cameras will fall up on all liable leads.

54
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 4: Here's your car that you drive to work every day

55
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 4: is now located at a block from your house, So it

56
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 4: it rouses our suspicion.

57
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 3: Gletedhill allegedly confessed to a confidential informant about the crime

58
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: and her attempts to cover it up by destroying key evidence.

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 3: Phone records indicated that a new mattress had been ordered

60
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 3: shortly after the incident, leading investigators to believe that critical

61
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 3: evidence had been tampered with. Gleedheill had previously filed for

62
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 3: divorce from Johnson and sought a protective order, which was

63
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 3: denied due to lack of evidence of abuse. The tragic

64
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 3: situation has left their two sons and daughter, ages eleven,

65
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 3: seven and five without their father and mother. The Cottonwood

66
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: Heights Police Department express condolences to the families involved and

67
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: acknowledged the collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies and handling

68
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: the case. Gledhill is being held without bond.

69
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: I'm Jennifer Gould, a TikTok influencer known as mister Prauda,

00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: a therapist in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. William Nicholas Abraham's body

72
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: was discovered wrapped in a tarp on a roadside near

73
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: Baton Rouge. Authorities believe the murder occurred elsewhere and the

74
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: body dumped at the location where it was found. According

75
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: to officials, the sixty nine year old known as doctor Nick,

76
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: died of blunt force trauma to the head and neck.

77
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,679
Speaker 1: Canjipa Hopera Sheriff Gerald Sticker spoke to WAFB five News

78
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: at this.

79
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 4: Point, we don't know a motive. We know this was

80
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 4: a very violent attack, and we don't know if it

81
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: was one suspect or multiple.

82
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Terry on Ishmael Thomas was taken into custody in Dallas

83
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: after an intense manhunt. The twenty year old has a

84
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: history of concerning online content, with social media posts often

85
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: hinting at mental health struggles and showing violent outbursts. Just

86
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 1: days before the murder, mister Prada uploaded a YouTube video

87
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: titled what I Do After a Breakup, in which he

88
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: appeared agitated and distraught. Thomas was seen driving the therapist's vehicle. Then,

89
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 1: after the murder, the TikToker reportedly refused to obey a

90
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: traffic stop and instead backed into a police vehicle, and

91
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: then he foot bailed from the stolen car. Thomas was

92
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: captured on a nearby store surveillance camera as he ran,

93
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: which is how he was identified as a person of

94
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 1: interest in the case. Abraham was a prominent figure in

95
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: the Baton Rouge community. A therapist, life coach, motivational speaker,

96
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: and author. He offered support to individuals struggling with substance abuse, anxiety,

97
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 1: and depression. He was also known for his work with

98
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: the LGBTQ community and his regular appearances on local TV.

99
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: The connection between Thomas and Abraham remains unclear. Thomas will

100
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: have to face a judge in Dallas who will determine

101
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: if he's extradited to Louisiana to face charges of aggravated

102
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:02,839
