1:28
of warning, this podcast explores graphic and
1:30
disturbing stories and includes some strong language.
1:33
It therefore may not be suitable for
1:35
our young listeners or other folks who
1:37
may find it disturbing. Hello and welcome
1:40
to True Crime Daily, the podcast covering
1:42
high profile and under the radar cases
1:44
from across the country every week. I'm
1:46
your host, Anna Garcia. Our cases this
1:49
week, nine days after
1:51
a repeat offender is released from
1:54
prison, he stalks and he targets
1:56
five women. He
2:00
sexually assaults and kills the
2:02
woman. He was seen
2:04
on street security cameras between midnight
2:06
and 2 a.m. carrying out his
2:09
terror. Two questions. Why
2:12
was he let out in the first place?
2:14
And why didn't anyone
2:17
monitoring these street cameras
2:19
do something and call
2:21
police? But first, a
2:23
woman convicted of poisoning a family friend
2:25
with eye drops in order to steal $300,000
2:27
has been sentenced to life. But
2:32
before she heard her sentence, she
2:34
made a two-hour statement to
2:36
the court that pretty much nailed
2:39
her coffin. We are recording this
2:41
on Wednesday, April 9th of 2024. Our
2:44
guest today is Dr. Tracey Tambora, an
2:47
expert on domestic violence and a professor
2:49
of criminal justice at the University of
2:51
New Haven and a dear friend of
2:54
the show. Tracey, welcome back.
2:56
How are you? Oh, I'm so
2:58
good. Anna, thank you so much for having
3:00
me today. It's always a
3:02
pleasure to be here. And although
3:04
I am a professor of criminal justice, I always
3:06
learn something from the show. Wow.
3:09
Okay. That's exciting. I
3:11
love the scales of justice behind you
3:13
there, Dr. Tracey. Those
3:17
scales were in my family for
3:19
two generations. Yes. Really?
3:22
Did you come from a
3:24
family of lawyers or professors?
3:27
You know, I have an interesting family
3:29
background. Most of my family
3:31
were laborers of
3:33
some sort, but my grandfather,
3:35
one of eight, went
3:38
to law school after World War II
3:40
on the GI Bill. And
3:43
all of the rest of his family
3:45
really eighth grade to 12th grade education,
3:47
but he went to law school, practiced
3:49
law, and that had
3:51
a lasting impression on me. Yeah. And
3:54
those are his scales? Those are
3:56
his scales or they were his relative who
3:58
gave them to him. Yeah.
4:00
Wow. That's amazing. Well, then
4:03
we have the right person on the program
4:05
today. Tracy, we have some
4:07
very disturbing cases as always. The
4:10
second one in particular really will speak to
4:12
your expertise when we have
4:15
this serial predator who
4:17
should have never been let out on the streets. And this
4:19
first one, you know, is an
4:21
interesting twist on a crime
4:23
that we see over and over again. You know,
4:26
we see people being
4:28
killed for financial gain.
4:31
And the reason this one is interesting
4:36
is that we've seen an uptick in
4:38
the last few years on murders
4:40
that have been committed with the use of
4:42
eye drops. And
4:45
it's fascinating. And this is one
4:47
of those cases. Yeah,
4:49
this is what I mean when I
4:51
say I always learn something from the
4:53
show, because as criminologists, we study crime
4:55
on the aggregate, like what's happening in
4:57
the general population. Something as
4:59
specific as an eye drop related homicide
5:02
is not something that I paid particular
5:04
attention. But when I read about this
5:06
case, and I then I
5:08
googled something to prepare, and a bunch
5:11
of cases using eye drops came up.
5:13
So I had no idea that this was now
5:15
a weapon. I think
5:18
of it as a weapon that is being
5:20
used in homicide. It is a
5:22
weapon. And here's why it is odorless,
5:25
it is tasteless. And
5:27
if ingested in large enough quantities,
5:29
meaning enough of those little bottles,
5:31
even though these bottles of of
5:34
eye drops are tiny, you pour a
5:36
couple of those or more into a
5:39
glass of water or anything
5:41
pudding, and it can
5:44
start to slow down the heart, right,
5:46
the lungs, the brain, think
5:48
of like a sedative. If you do
5:50
it over a prolonged period of time
5:53
in smaller doses, you're ill.
5:55
And They can't figure out what's causing
5:58
your illness. So... Why
6:00
are we have seen a rash of other
6:02
when you use any type of poison or
6:04
toxin? Was somebody. Who is older Or
6:06
who has preexisting. Conditions harder
6:08
to detect because irregularities
6:11
with the body are
6:13
expected. Or an older person
6:16
with pre existing condition, so
6:18
on. Unfortunately clever,
6:20
but fortunately not clever
6:22
enough. Yes, Not clever
6:24
enough and what will see
6:26
is this incredible exchange between.
6:29
The descendants who went on and on
6:31
for hours as like is her right
6:33
now disappointed already been convicted spent. She's
6:35
going on and on about how the
6:37
state. Is wrong and you're all wrong
6:39
and I am. Ride and you know.
6:41
At this point when you been convicted, you're trying
6:43
to get mercy. And.
6:47
That Anna does. This case reminds
6:49
you of a case that I
6:51
was previously presented with. Regarding the
6:53
cheesecake, the woman who gave her the
6:55
points and cheesecake. And even
6:57
when she gave to her neighbor
6:59
to steal her identity south of
7:01
the identity thefts right and and
7:04
one of the most interesting port
7:06
points of that case was not
7:08
just the facts of the case
7:10
but it was also the reaction
7:12
of the defendant during the trial.
7:14
This kind of ending indignation, arm
7:16
and real failure to accept any.
7:18
Accountability. So for me that as
7:21
a from others that's the interesting piece. When
7:23
are people accountable for their behavior and when
7:25
aren't they. Sell beer, And
7:28
in this case. He just doubled down
7:30
on all of her denials m blamed
7:32
it on everyone else, everyone else which
7:34
you know. Look, I think she was
7:36
going to receive a very long sentence
7:39
but she didn't door self any papers.
7:41
And then the judge. the judge was in.
7:43
You know, intolerant of this. And then let's
7:45
just say. They both were a little pussy with
7:48
each other and would we. Will play some
7:50
of that. So let's get to
7:52
our first case out of Milwaukee
7:54
and you know we have been
7:56
following this particular case for several
7:58
years now from. The moment the
8:00
arrest because it's just been such
8:03
an interesting case. To the victim
8:05
here is sixty two year old
8:07
Lin Hernan who I'm was apparently
8:10
given a least water bottles so
8:12
the water bottle would have had
8:14
the are eyedrops and them her
8:17
convicted the convicted killer here who's
8:19
just been sentenced to life. Is
8:22
forty year old Jesse Protest gates
8:25
and this is a woman with
8:27
a history as you might recall
8:29
of defrauding people, forging documents and
8:32
so police say. The mode of here
8:34
with really clear. Is all about lends
8:36
money. For. And.
8:38
Especially when you start seeing how she's transferring
8:41
money to her own a car account. From
8:43
Lands and using Lynn's credit cards
8:45
Eastern to really see a picture
8:48
of. You. Know. And. And
8:50
C B then became the
8:52
beneficiary. Which. Was very interesting. One
8:54
family members were like wait a minute
8:56
who's this woman's even though she's a
8:58
family friend why see the beneficiary So
9:00
is a really served get very fishy.
9:03
Been. Very fishy so I'm a little
9:05
bit of background. here are Victim Lin
9:07
was a retard petition who loved animals
9:09
and she was very close with their
9:12
families. Are Lynn and just
9:14
see where family, friends and Jesse
9:16
stepped in. As. Lens
9:18
primary caretaker as her health
9:20
was declining. And apparently Lynn's mother
9:22
had been caretaker before and then
9:24
lends to go over so. In
9:28
others one story that's told him we
9:30
see this alive. So apparently this was
9:32
first viewed as either an accident or
9:34
suicide. Because when police
9:36
responded to the home. Of
9:38
this would have been a four fifty five. On
9:40
October third of Twenty Team again, how
9:42
long we've been covering this. Police.
9:45
Find. Lin. And.
9:48
Her recliner. she's unconscious but in
9:50
us in the in of just
9:52
sees. Not. Well
9:54
cross metics crushed medication
9:57
is found. On her body
9:59
along with. Wait containing other
10:01
crush medication It's Firefighters pronounced her
10:03
at the scene dad because they
10:06
said she hadn't been breathing and
10:08
it was just you. Called Nine
10:10
One One. But. Before she called,
10:12
my mom once called her mother. Or
10:15
minutes. A four
10:17
minute conversation while. We.
10:20
Have someone here who's not breathing. right?
10:23
Where's the focus here? Tracy? Where's
10:25
the focus on Be emergency. You.
10:28
Know. I.
10:30
Have been involved in a couple of cases
10:32
like this. Remember before I wasn't. A criminologist,
10:35
I was a social worker for the first
10:37
eight years. And I did some work with
10:39
elder abuse. Suit cases
10:41
like this I had seen now I
10:43
never work to keep that resulted in
10:46
death. They were. I'll fortunately the
10:48
victim was still alive, but
10:50
one of the things I
10:52
remember being very conscious of
10:54
is that the caretaker feals
10:57
this. Very.
10:59
Dichotomy of very kind of. Dual
11:01
role. First. Of all they feel
11:04
as though the fact that off as I've
11:06
seen as a that the family isn't actually
11:08
as presence of as they should be and
11:10
they're there for a day are laden with
11:12
all of the burden of of the care
11:14
taking. Which is odd because you were hired
11:16
as a caretaker of course. You are
11:18
responsible for this. But the thing.
11:21
That complicates it in the cases
11:23
that I personally witnessed was on
11:25
the fact that this skill set
11:27
of the caretaker is off than
11:29
ah. I'm not adequate for the
11:31
responsibilities that they're going to take
11:33
on and they are for and
11:35
this is. Not justification for murder.
11:37
This is none. justification for abuse.
11:39
The if and. I don't know
11:41
if the supplies in this instance but
11:43
on the idea of them that the
11:46
person feels very burden and overwhelmed and
11:48
somehow and titled for the behavior that
11:50
they exhibit with the individual that they
11:52
are charged to care for. So it
11:55
doesn't seem odd a character for somebody
11:57
who is engaging actively. An abusive
11:59
behavior. providing. Somebody
12:01
with toxic substances. in this case.
12:04
I'm cool. Intends to? perhaps?
12:07
we don't know. Perhaps the
12:09
intention was just to reduce
12:11
their lucidity so that they
12:13
could then obtain. More financial
12:15
control over the individual. And
12:18
then it. bad. And
12:20
so instead of calling the
12:22
police in it, or instead
12:24
of calling Nine One one
12:26
in this instance, they're calling
12:28
a family member to receive
12:30
some sort of support to
12:32
debrief, because perhaps he didn't
12:34
intend. To. Kill her She
12:37
just intended to. Incapacitate
12:41
her to the point where she to take
12:43
more advantage? I don't know. And of course
12:45
these are cases that are rare. Luckily
12:47
we don't have a lot of individuals
12:49
who are are murdered for substances by
12:52
a caretaker so we don't have a
12:54
lot of research studies for instance in
12:56
the next one on but have more
12:58
research for young. Men this one.
13:00
I you know the these are
13:02
individual cases that come up so
13:04
I'm speculating. but perhaps she felt
13:06
overwhelmed by the experience that she
13:09
was having. She was in a
13:11
situation, Perhaps he was over her
13:13
head in the air. is she's
13:15
engaged. An abusive behavior by giving
13:17
the in the the individual
13:19
in this case Lynn substances
13:21
and then she panicked when
13:23
I'm Lynn was unresponsive. Ah
13:25
again this is not excuse
13:27
her this. Does not justify her
13:29
actions. But. This. Is
13:32
perhaps explanation for why she calls her mother
13:34
instead of nine one one First. Is
13:36
it possible? You know
13:39
because a Jazzy has.
13:41
A history of forging documents
13:44
and getting I'm all sorts
13:46
of. Fraudulent. Loans
13:48
to collect money as
13:51
that. That
13:53
again, it was all part of a
13:55
pattern. And and
13:57
as you say, see may
13:59
not have intended to kill
14:01
her, she may have intended
14:03
to keep perks in this
14:05
ill state of declines. And
14:07
I see finally did die. Ah
14:10
I think. I. Think that
14:12
that's. I think that
14:14
that's possible, but at the end of
14:16
day you're playing Russian roulette here with
14:18
someone's life. And right of course of
14:21
course for arms down and in. As
14:23
you say, the fact that we can
14:25
establish his at just the has a
14:27
history of being a Connors com Hot
14:29
or is she has a history of
14:31
taking advantage of financial situations to her
14:33
benefit including. Her own including an old
14:35
wrestling offer, a mother a so. Sorry.
14:38
I'm so again, I don't know she
14:40
intended to kill her. Not a reasonable
14:42
person should assume that when you are
14:44
playing with substances. ah, I'm a huge
14:47
is one of the potential outcomes. His
14:49
desk. For clearly
14:51
her moral compass was like and been working
14:53
in a long time and and owning in
14:55
the wrong direction. right? Exactly.
14:58
So. Just he said that. Lynn.
15:00
This is what she tells the police who
15:03
sells you know what? She was becoming very
15:05
depressed shoes becoming despondent over the fact that
15:07
her health was failing mode could have been
15:09
sailing because someone was poisoning her to the
15:12
in addition to what else may have been
15:14
going on and or world. And
15:16
I see said that Lynn
15:19
was refusing right to take
15:21
her medication properly and instead
15:23
was abusing drugs like Xanax
15:26
right? So
15:28
ah, I'm. Jessie
15:31
also told police that Lynn was sick. Of.
15:33
The medical community not having answers. While
15:35
if you're not looking for tetra high
15:38
draw. The line poisoning exactly you might
15:40
identify. It's not like number one on
15:42
the list as the doctors going through
15:44
the checklist of what needs to be
15:47
that. Said She also said
15:49
that she was indeed wanting
15:51
to take her license yet.
15:54
Everyone else. In
15:57
Her in her Life in Linz
15:59
Life said. Linda. Didn't wanna
16:01
take her life. She was not suicidal.
16:03
Only one person said this. The person
16:05
who called nine, One one the person
16:07
who was there. The person first
16:09
called mother for four minutes before nine One one.
16:11
Shirt So ah I'm.
16:15
Asked or linz das. A
16:19
few other weird things happen which
16:21
made. The. Investigation. Go.
16:24
In a slightly different direction from the
16:26
Ah She proud just you know, died
16:28
on her own accidentally. It's now.
16:32
Here's what's really weird.
16:35
Jesse. And
16:37
her mom continue to
16:40
use. Things. That
16:42
belong to Lynn. They started
16:44
selling off her. Property like.
16:47
Or. They to be selling
16:50
her property. It's driving
16:52
around. In the
16:54
jeep that belonged to
16:56
Lynn. All. Of
16:58
this was intended for Lynn's nephew so I'd
17:00
be named. The Families Like women Who Are
17:02
These. To it. So
17:04
I'm. Been.
17:07
Things completely. Took another turn when they
17:10
got to the part of the. Will and
17:12
they realize that these beneficiary of
17:14
the well we're supposed to be
17:16
a relative and all the sudden
17:18
the beneficiary. Of the will. His
17:21
jersey? Sure. Where. Did she come
17:23
from right? And. That really
17:26
does change the investigation because the
17:28
entire seat was the less to
17:30
Jesse and that just did not
17:32
seem right to the family and
17:35
investigators. So. Bands the medical examiner
17:37
could conduct as an autopsy, they determined
17:39
that the woman died of the fatal
17:41
dose of. Tetra Hi draws.
17:44
Lean and that is the
17:46
main ingredient in eyedrops as
17:48
we discussed. It can slow down
17:50
your entire system and it can have
17:52
the effects of i the just feeling
17:54
really sick. for a long time or I
17:57
can slow down your system until you die.
17:59
Literally. The printing. To. That
18:02
this is why I have and
18:04
again this is total speculation. I've
18:06
ever interviewed Ah Jessi but this
18:09
is why I suspect that she
18:11
did not intend to kill for
18:13
a bit of is in Jesse
18:15
Saber to keep her alive and
18:17
keepers said she's using all of
18:19
her arm assets see is having
18:22
her bills paid. See it, you
18:24
aren't she? Ah, she does transfer
18:26
is it appears see forges the
18:28
will transfer as the will to
18:30
her name. But. He
18:32
is also opening up herself to. An
18:35
investigation when Lynn Die is
18:37
in that now you're you
18:39
could have an autopsy I
18:41
don't know I just feel
18:43
like it's either Jesse. Ah,
18:45
not agree Con
18:47
artist or. Obviously, we
18:49
know she has no moral compass,
18:51
but it wasn't Jesse's best interest
18:53
to keep Lynn alive and sick
18:56
because she's getting her financial needs
18:58
mess with out alerting. The Authorities
19:00
This is. So. That.
19:02
That's interesting. That's very interesting. That could
19:05
explain why she was just so adamant
19:07
in that to our you know speech
19:09
of hers that it was her a
19:11
wasn't her was an accident. You know
19:13
I do think that one can convince
19:15
themselves of I us. Lin.
19:18
Is dead in. This is indisputable.
19:20
But. From Jesse's point of view, she. Can be
19:22
like but it was an accident but it was
19:25
an accident and seeking St with. With.
19:27
I'm a belief. You
19:29
know, sometimes we see people who like really
19:31
believe a lot of their crap and they're
19:34
just like insane and they double down on
19:36
it, sir This? but based on your observations,
19:38
this could be a slightly. Different interpretation
19:40
of that. So on July ninth
19:43
of twenty nineteen officers executed a
19:45
search warrants at the home that
19:47
was shared by Jesse and her
19:49
boyfriend and that same day she
19:51
was arrested. And place on
19:54
probation and parole whole because
19:56
remember see had previous convictions
19:58
on I'm Fraud charges. Here
20:00
we go all over again. Server The next
20:02
ten days I'm. See was
20:05
interviewed. By police on six different
20:07
occasions and her story changed. as
20:10
things went along. So Jesse claim
20:12
that sea and land had never
20:14
really worked out. Of financial arrangement
20:16
for the woman for care. And
20:18
that Lin Wood gives us He.
20:20
Checks or credit cards to cover
20:22
car payments. For her and her mother as
20:25
a way of saying thank you for taking care
20:27
of me. See that to me. Is to
20:29
loosey goosey. Existence either.
20:34
Believable: A foul. Logical. Yeah
20:36
and again. Listen, I have six.
20:38
At this point in my career
20:40
I have seen you know as
20:42
much on sound decision making as
20:44
I have seen sound decision making,
20:46
so I can neither. I can't
20:49
refute that that is actually possible.
20:51
I have personally witnessed victims of
20:53
crime giving some individuals in their
20:55
lead that the people ends up
20:57
being the offender this kind of
20:59
latitude or way which ends up
21:01
coming back to harm them. Now,
21:03
this doesn't mean to say that
21:05
people. Shouldn't be good hearted and expect
21:08
the past and that the victim is
21:10
responsible for the outcome it says. I
21:12
did not conclusively say that that is
21:14
not plausible. I have seen cases in
21:17
which this actually has happened. Well.
21:20
As investigators continued their questioning,
21:22
then they asked, just seats?
21:24
Well how do you explain
21:26
the fact that. She.
21:28
Had so much. Petra I draw
21:30
saline in her system and Lin
21:32
said. Is. An excellent answer.
21:35
Or she was known as using
21:37
eyedrops excessively. Okay
21:39
issue. I mean, you'd have to
21:41
be boring potholes, Saying your
21:43
eyes, shirt, And what
21:45
we're talking about his ingesting it, sir,
21:47
right? So I see is being questioned
21:50
about this. Jesse says that
21:52
Linwood by. Eyedrops in
21:54
bulk. Bulk.
21:57
I know who buys I dropped some
21:59
folks and containing you know, buying at
22:01
least six bottles at a time. And.
22:05
Then she was very clear she said but
22:08
she never thought that. Limb would put the
22:10
bible of you know I drops in her mouth.
22:12
Full? of course not. I mean it's
22:14
just ate her story was not making
22:16
sense. He was trying. To come up with
22:18
an answer for the but see. Died.
22:21
For. Of eyedrop poisoning. Therefore, what
22:23
is? Your answer to this and
22:25
again sees his burying herself. And.
22:28
Then in another point at another point.
22:30
Okay. Jesse. Does not
22:32
yourself any favors. She tells the cops
22:34
will cease to drink devising with vodka.
22:37
Really? I
22:41
do know is also do we Ill?
22:43
This is one thing I wish I
22:46
could have seen the actual forensic report
22:48
on. Do we know that you know
22:50
how the how the substance was entering
22:52
the body? It's not, it's inclusive The
22:54
you have this information is it concludes
22:57
it's not coming through, administrated the dropped
22:59
to the I, It's definitely coming through
23:01
oral. On. Absorption There
23:03
was testimony that. This
23:05
had been. In just and
23:08
just as a birthday suit this
23:10
amount. of club would be
23:12
ingested and there was testimony
23:14
actually on both sides because
23:17
remember. Remember. Jesse
23:19
claiming? Oh yeah. See.
23:22
Started up with or vodka. Yeah.
23:24
Services that raises one more
23:27
so or less system mansion.
23:29
Let's just imagine for one
23:32
minute that the victims here
23:34
lynn his arm ingesting. The
23:37
substance I don't know why can't say
23:39
setup for hydroxyl him to sign it
23:42
draws a lead on with vodka. Let
23:44
us imagine that this is what's happening.
23:46
We've all seen that show of like
23:48
my strange addiction people. Do people
23:51
do strange things? They
23:53
ingest substances? Okay,
23:55
well Jesse, your her caretaker. Why
23:57
you leaking to the doctor about
23:59
that? Why aren't you
24:01
intervening wire to telling the family
24:03
member that she has a substance
24:05
issue which is dangerous. Rights So.
24:09
At the very worst, this is
24:11
intentional homicide. At the very least,
24:13
this is mixed with that led
24:16
to hum that lead to death.
24:18
So I do think she's culpable
24:20
regardless. Bomb as if she assumed
24:22
the role of caretaker and she
24:25
watched some one engaging in highly
24:27
dangerous behavior without intervention. As the
24:29
very least, you are responsible for
24:32
manslaughter like egregious neglect. So
24:34
there is that part of it. right?
24:36
There fact that Jesse saying Lin
24:39
wanted to and for life and
24:41
that she was using it by
24:43
ingesting it's the eye drops and
24:46
mixing Rebekah with it. And then
24:48
there's the other part of the
24:50
investigations which is the financial fraud
24:53
part of the investigations. and looking
24:55
at us these soaks detectors at
24:57
the time com uncover some debts.
25:00
That. Chassis. And. Her
25:03
boyfriend half from a local
25:05
bingo casino and according to
25:07
the casino. Jesse.
25:10
And her boyfriend. Owed.
25:13
Forty. Thousand Dollars. They had lost
25:15
Forty thousand dollars. Gambling. That is
25:18
a lot of money. So.
25:21
They were banned from the
25:23
casino. And of course they
25:25
add some serious deaths Jesse's. Mother
25:27
Jennifer also told authorities that she
25:30
has been a victim of. Her
25:32
own daughter's fraudulent schemes. See
25:34
sad that chassis allegedly stole personal
25:36
checks of her mother's along with
25:38
their mothers identification and the title
25:40
to work are. And
25:43
that this information was all
25:45
used to obtain loans without
25:48
the mothers consent. So there
25:50
is a clear pattern here
25:52
worth of Jesse taking advantage
25:54
of every one inner life.
25:57
right? right? right? Again,
26:00
I'm trying to offer like a range
26:02
of explanations because this is that you
26:04
know a crime like this that is
26:06
so particular and again, I don't have
26:08
any research to be able to say.
26:10
Well and ninety percent of crimes were
26:12
caretakers. Poison to death there yet it
26:14
on my is so I have to
26:16
rely on what could be plausible. So
26:19
it's either way, you're talking
26:21
about an individual with a
26:23
history of taking advantage of
26:25
people whose enough who accepts
26:27
the position of caretaking, who
26:29
at the very least is
26:31
negligent in intervening in dangerous
26:33
behavior at the very first
26:36
it is on a actually
26:38
doing the poisoning and somewhere
26:40
in the mental isn't maybe
26:42
somehow encouraging. The behavior. And
26:44
passively standing by. Either way we are
26:47
culpability and we also have an individual
26:49
who has fi of was a financial
26:51
gain at the end of the day
26:54
giving you motive. A. Lot a
26:56
lot of financial gain because police
26:58
say that she wrote checks in
27:01
Linz name to just see right
27:03
my gorging them into her own
27:05
bank account so that was an
27:07
easy one to trace. So between
27:09
the transfer of money from. Ah,
27:13
I'm Linda. Count to Jesse's
27:15
pluses: The credit cards that she used
27:17
sir, it's at least three hundred thousand
27:19
dollars. While Qaeda by most. Significant
27:21
amount of money, so there's your
27:24
modem. So juicy Trial began October
27:26
twenty fourth, Twenty twenty three, and
27:28
the state's case was pretty clear.
27:31
Jesse. Taken advantage of an elderly
27:33
friend for her own financial gain
27:35
strength. So her defense was.
27:38
That. Lin was suicidal. shit
27:40
taken realize. That. It
27:42
was either suicide or accidents. On
27:45
Linz behalf of her own
27:48
doing so on November fourteenth.
27:50
I'm twenty twenty three. Jurors:
27:54
Convicted just the of first degree
27:56
intentional homicide. It's best of movable
27:58
property over one. The thousand dollars.
28:01
And theft of movable property between
28:03
ten thousand and one hundred thousand
28:05
dollars, right? Very specific charges to
28:07
the area Here it's Michigan law.
28:09
So then on sentencing date which
28:12
was reset April fifth, Jesse
28:14
have a lot to say in her. Own
28:17
defense see it took. Two.
28:20
Hours. It's.
28:22
Excruciating to listen to these. Two hours,
28:24
But you know what? It's. It's
28:27
the defendants life and if you've had
28:30
a trial and every one. Is been
28:32
speaking. And saying things about
28:34
you and this is your chance. To say
28:36
we have to say I suppose you should
28:38
take all the time that you want, but
28:41
it was excruciating Sued written it down and
28:43
she was reading from a yellow pad. her
28:45
hands, you know, handcuff. So she's
28:47
like changing rages, moving pages,
28:51
Issues pretty stoked through most of his
28:53
and then was emotional at one part
28:55
or going to play that's, but really
28:57
she blamed every. And see, stuck
28:59
to her story so. Here
29:02
is Jesse. And.
29:05
Our own words talking to the court.
29:07
It is a lot to be accused and. Convicted
29:09
of murder financing do with. It
29:13
will bring her back any
29:15
will meet her life any
29:17
easier. Your father be responsible
29:19
for what seems to refer
29:21
decisions, her choices, her absence
29:23
and no one else has.
29:25
To me, tracy, that
29:27
one hurt. Or.
29:29
Just he says. but this meaning
29:31
convicting. Her and setting and or prison isn't gonna
29:34
bring her back. Oh
29:36
my gosh, it's like this is what
29:38
we talk about when we talk about
29:40
the Justice. And
29:43
and this is where against the cases
29:45
and is somewhat of an anomaly. I'm
29:47
in the fact that we actually have
29:49
the death many people engage. In fraud,
29:52
fraudulent behavior to take other people's money.
29:54
luckily most of it doesn't. And
29:56
to death. But here's the piece
29:58
that is most fascinate. For me
30:00
as a criminologist, still get up this
30:03
kind of reasoning. Is.
30:05
Somewhat typical for perpetrators but
30:07
I also find it event
30:09
typical arm among students said
30:11
a teach and not the
30:13
field and I get a
30:15
lot of questions about what
30:17
is the purpose of punishment
30:19
right and so we have
30:21
to understand the purpose. Of punishment
30:24
ten have a lot of the it. could
30:26
be too full, could be three full of
30:28
course. It is a first and
30:30
foremost managed to. That. For
30:32
the state in our country in a
30:34
democracy to address the wrong doing that
30:36
occurred to one of their cities to
30:39
one of. Our citizens. It's also
30:41
to hold people accountable for
30:43
behavior to both detour. Them
30:45
computer bad actions, but to deter
30:47
the general public from engaging in
30:50
similar bad actions is called general
30:52
deterrence and enough. Finally, some kind
30:54
of punishment is also to bring
30:56
justice to the victim. Now. Yourself
31:00
focuses on that. Third point. A lot.
31:02
We want justice for the victim. I
31:05
really hope you're viewing audience understands
31:08
that that is a cursory or
31:10
secondary consideration. The marriage and Criminal
31:12
justice system was not built on
31:15
a system that tries to bring
31:17
justice to the victim. The
31:20
and that kind of might have been. that's
31:22
exactly my thing I see all star. Justice
31:24
System needs some fine. Tuning.
31:27
Of tanks. To have a
31:29
little bit more considerations for
31:32
the victim injustice. While still,
31:34
obviously you know the tenants
31:36
of our justice system about
31:38
innocent until proven guilty. I
31:40
get that right. But
31:43
even punishment in our system is
31:45
really with where the United States
31:48
word democracy. Punishment. They are
31:50
for is focused on on.
31:53
The offender. Night. And
31:55
the that's why sometimes people don't like it,
31:57
but the offender has way more rights. The
32:00
trial than the victim become an
32:02
absolute as as the. Even though
32:04
I as somebody who works primarily
32:06
with victims in does risk research
32:08
based on victims, I understand why
32:10
this criminal justice system focuses on
32:12
the offenders rights more because they're
32:15
going to lose liberty. Or.
32:17
They're going to lose light skinned
32:19
rare instances. and in those instances,
32:21
that's where we are constitutional. Issue of:
32:23
you're going to deprive somebody of liberty in a
32:25
democracy. You better be sure that the
32:27
facts of the case or in
32:29
order. But so that's why I'm
32:31
here. In some ways I think
32:33
that this Jesse is. I.
32:37
Don't want to use a pejorative
32:39
term for see the ignorance right
32:41
to the facts of hello just
32:43
seats we're here to bring back
32:46
during lean back to life where
32:48
a whole here to hold you
32:50
accountable for an egregious act both
32:52
because you are that his punishment
32:54
is fitting in this instance for
32:56
you as an individual and also
32:58
to send a social message that
33:00
this behavior is not tolerated. And.
33:02
Then thirdly, sure Again, I'm sorry that
33:04
it's Third, I know you don't like
33:06
it, Anna, I'd like it's But yes,
33:08
and I'm in some way to bring
33:11
about some level. Of justice for the victim
33:13
here. Yeah well
33:15
Ah Van after her two hours
33:17
it was. the judges turn right
33:19
and you know sometimes judges will
33:22
have a common. I always find
33:24
the judges comments always for me
33:26
among the most fascinating of the
33:29
process. It's because you're waiting to
33:31
hear. What they're going to
33:33
say about What's your Cia inspired?
33:35
And. There they will. Issue
33:38
the sentence, Know. They
33:41
aren't necessarily have to explain
33:43
themselves. sometimes they do. This
33:45
judge really wanted to have
33:47
a conversation. With.
33:49
The public. Yeah
33:51
and. The. Wanted everyone
33:53
to understand what she. Had seen
33:55
and witness and why's he was
33:58
going to sentence as. He
34:00
did so. Ah, I'm.
34:04
A simple judge really? do the alleged
34:06
say I want you to listen here
34:08
because at one point. I
34:10
just see, does. Interrupt the
34:12
judge and the church does
34:14
not like that and she
34:16
snaps back understandably. I saw
34:19
everything. Has
34:21
to ask out loud. In
34:24
a rhetorical question, that reason poisoning.
34:27
Leave. Who knew. All. Following
34:30
you. Release. From. Prison.
34:34
No, I'm not asking for a name for this
34:36
is my time. To Do
34:38
Not interrupt me. She
34:42
got markedly sicker. Following
34:45
your real. Person in her life
34:47
and a daily basis, ultimately ending
34:49
up in hospital. In
34:52
September of Twenty eight, T. Unexplained.
34:58
Couldn't figure out what was going on, but
35:00
what do we know? She got better. What?
35:04
Could not have been happening in
35:06
the hospital. Someone
35:09
poisoning her with th to the.
35:12
I. Have to say I mean that moment
35:14
that the judges like. Do
35:17
Not interrupt me Rec. Do.
35:20
Not interrupt me. This is my
35:22
time. You
35:24
know what? sometimes. How
35:27
can I put this? It's like. This
35:29
woman who just went on for two hours really
35:31
they need to be put in your place in
35:33
are just shut up now and or listen to
35:36
why you're here and why you can spend the
35:38
rest your life in prison. This
35:40
is a clear to stay of two things he. Have that
35:42
right. You have a judge who is responsible
35:45
for the court. And delivering the opinion of
35:47
the court. But we have accepted
35:49
in our criminal justice. System that the
35:51
judge is actually particularly heinous. Cases
35:53
can also deliver like a moral
35:55
argument to that the to the
35:58
Perpetrator I'm in which the. Get
36:00
the. Judges? Human. Can you
36:03
imagine sitting for two hours
36:05
listening respectfully, To somebody go on
36:07
and on Failing to be accountable
36:09
for anything never. I mean it
36:11
and never mind if if you
36:13
don't We the. But. Death was
36:16
accidental. About all the money
36:18
that to talk. How about
36:20
all of your failure to
36:22
intervene? I ain't worried in
36:24
this situation and them. So
36:26
the George response. Both I think as
36:28
a judge and as a human being would
36:30
you shut up? I'm tired of this out
36:32
and also. On the Judge
36:34
a. Role. To play not just in
36:36
your sentencing, but to deliver the opinion. Of
36:39
the court which includes my
36:41
opinion on your morality. Absolutely.
36:46
Cel. Chassis was sentenced to
36:48
life in prison with the possibility of
36:50
parole. After forty years, this is going
36:53
to be in her eighties. Ah a
36:55
best when she is eligible for parole.
36:58
The church also called her.
37:02
Diabolical. Here
37:04
which. Is Chris Huhne of
37:06
my favorite words and descriptors for
37:08
much of what we talk about
37:10
here. But yeah, Diabolical.
37:13
In a slowly kill someone. Yeah.
37:17
And really as so. in addition to
37:19
the jail time, Jesse was ordered to
37:21
pay three hundred and eighty thousand dollars
37:23
and must to send an an additional
37:25
sixteen thousand dollars for the expenses of
37:27
the. State witnesses. At.
37:29
The trial. On.
37:33
Of those, likelihood. That she's saying
37:35
that is a less than one
37:37
percent some admin and yes, but these
37:40
are all send arm kind of
37:42
ceremony. A whole or on good
37:44
space. Our efforts by the court.
37:46
To send a message to the perpetrator
37:49
and the community that you're going to
37:51
be. Responsible and more than one where you're
37:53
going to lose your liberty. And you
37:55
do have, at least in theory, because in
37:57
practice it's unrealistic. But at least and. Eerie,
38:00
you do need to pay restitution to the
38:02
core and to the family. And
38:05
of the judge reminded her
38:07
that she could not. Financially.
38:10
Gain from the telling of her story I
38:12
would think about is already a law in
38:15
Michigan so said I guess just a reminder.
38:17
And one of these, like Missy, If you think you're
38:19
going to make any money by telling your story, right?
38:22
Let me remind you, you will Not. So.
38:26
Ah just you know what
38:28
the when these cases end?
38:30
When. There's in we talk about this
38:33
and you know families use words
38:35
like some families. And
38:37
say that there's closer other family say
38:39
you know it's just I am. Is.
38:42
It really. Closure. We. Still was
38:45
lost or a loved one? This
38:47
one's going to prison but she
38:49
hasn't even apologized. But of an
38:51
apology is gonna make anything better.
38:53
but it's just. It's
38:55
a sad. Is it is
38:58
sad there's no bringing Limbaugh is nothing
39:00
Elon back and Nic to. A
39:02
cigarette in this case that he's also
39:04
bring up one. Other. Point: You know this
39:06
is a case, right? So we're looking at the
39:08
individual. Level analysis of what
39:10
went on on his. Between.
39:13
Jesse and Live But that linked to the
39:15
kind of. The. The process
39:17
though the person and me that processes
39:19
information on the aggregate up the macro
39:21
level. I'm concerned that not just from
39:23
this T. Southern. Talking about this for about
39:25
five or six years that we're going to
39:27
see increase. Increase in
39:30
cases like this. but I do hope
39:32
that you and your audience starts to
39:34
think about what is this gonna mean
39:36
for chair for or aging society. Do
39:38
we have attics with people? Do we
39:41
have adequate provisions? I'm I'm worried that
39:43
these kind of cases are going to
39:45
increase. I think you're right to
39:47
worry. Call.

and Barbara who both ran
42:18
like they were like somebody was chasing them.
42:20
Like there was a T-Rex was chasing them
42:22
and anything in their way, they were going
42:25
to smack you out of the way, they
42:27
were going to step on your neck, and
42:29
they were going to keep going until something
42:31
stopped them. And you're talking about short careers
42:34
generally. You're just, it's, there
42:36
isn't a lot of self-preservation involved except
42:39
the one time Mary and Barbara ran
42:41
out of bounds. The one time he
42:43
did. Let's not talk about that, Dan. Can we not
42:45
talk? Like I just got chills and that gets me
42:47
upset every time we talk. Now,
42:51
even though this murder occurred
42:53
in England, a wanted to
42:55
cover it, sometimes we do
42:57
cover international. it's crimes for
42:59
a lot of reasons. This
43:01
one I found fascinating because
43:03
it really shows how we're
43:05
not the only country in
43:07
the only justice system since
43:09
that is grappling with his
43:11
challenge with what to do.
43:13
With repeat offenders threat.
43:15
I believe that there are some
43:18
people. Who. Can not
43:20
be rehabilitated and can
43:22
not be put. Outside.
43:25
With people that must be locked up for
43:27
the rest of their lives but the laws
43:29
don't know is aligned with keeping someone in
43:32
for the rest of their lives. Ah,
43:35
until they do something. That.
43:37
They finally are. He put
43:39
away. For. Life. But here's the
43:42
problem. In order to reach that level,
43:44
a life has to be taken. Sure,
43:46
Sure, And you
43:49
know again one of the things
43:51
we we we study and criminology
43:53
is to what extent are people.
43:55
Are unable to be rehabilitated. it
43:57
is a small percentage. Fortunately, it's.
44:00
Small percentage, but they do exist. The problem? I
44:02
don't know if you want me to get into
44:04
this now are. You want to talk a little bit about. The
44:06
case with them that the piece
44:08
that I honed in on was
44:11
this classification of medium risk vs
44:13
high risk vs do you want
44:15
to give some or so hear
44:17
ya And Tracy's really hit hit
44:19
it on the nail on the
44:21
head here because how he was
44:24
classified as either. As. Medium
44:26
as opposed to a high risk. Really?
44:29
Had implications for how he would be
44:31
supervised sense now he would be released.
44:33
Been going to make an argument that
44:36
even as a high risk offender, he
44:38
was still going to step out and
44:40
do exactly what he wanted to do.
44:42
and we're going to get into that.
44:44
but I think you're right that that
44:46
does that. They are so many flaws
44:48
here in the reason we're still discussing
44:50
this case if that happened a few
44:53
years ago is because the family has
44:55
pressed the government and the justice system
44:57
to be held accountable and investigations. Are
44:59
still going on to figure out where the system
45:01
failed? Will you know what? Let me tell you
45:03
something, save a few bucks here. Let me tell
45:05
you where you failed to sit and never released
45:08
the guys and you don't need to be. You
45:10
know a P D or a
45:12
research scientist to know that that
45:14
is where the system for sales
45:16
and and I'm sorry you know.
45:19
But. That's the first level so. Let's
45:22
let's talk a little bit about the
45:24
case and then Tracy, you can explain
45:26
to us the difference in how he
45:28
was classified. So. The
45:30
victim here is thirty five year
45:32
old, the Xsara Alina. She had
45:35
recently graduated from law school she
45:37
was working on becoming. A lawyer
45:39
see. Had recently been
45:41
admitted to the solicitors.
45:44
Role which. Is kind of are equivalent
45:46
to the bar. You know, You.
45:49
Get accepted and then you're ready to go. And
45:51
that is where. She was in her life.
45:54
The convicted killer here is Jordan. Mcsweeney
45:56
had a lengthy criminal background
45:58
By the time Zar as.
46:01
Murder. He. Had twenty
46:03
eight convictions for sixty nine
46:05
crimes dating back to two
46:08
thousand and six burglary, vehicle
46:10
sapped, assault on police, battery
46:12
assaulting, causing bodily harm, and
46:15
he had been released from
46:17
custody nine days before the
46:19
murder. And despite his
46:22
criminal history, he was classified
46:24
as a medium risk offenders.
46:27
Okay Tracy, what? what? What would
46:29
have been the big difference here
46:31
between. My name and high risk as far
46:33
as how he would have been supervised. Well.
46:36
Before I do that I think I
46:39
need to explain may be to your
46:41
audience what how we even determined risk
46:43
may be like. Think a lot of
46:45
people in the general public think that
46:48
risk assessment or risk evaluation as we
46:50
call it is an exact science. It
46:52
is and I've actually written on this
46:55
so. Something. And I'm excited soccer
46:57
though. So just let's keep in
46:59
mind that risk assessment and most
47:01
of my research comes in risk
47:03
assessment for domestic violence, not in
47:05
general violence that's usually have a
47:07
criminal justice more the realm of
47:09
psychologist. but I've done. I've
47:11
what I've worked with psychologist Sonic
47:13
understanding as process. So risk assessment
47:15
is a decision making process in
47:17
which you determine or estimate or
47:20
identify or quantify risk. Okay, you
47:22
can imagine right then in there
47:24
that's gonna be difficult Rice Anyone
47:26
who's had a child or was
47:28
at care taking responsibility for your
47:30
kid, fall down, scrapes, their knee.
47:32
oh that's a rescue. didn't identify
47:35
some risks, were willing to accept
47:37
as it as a general public.
47:39
Bank the kids mates and A as part of growing
47:41
up. Other words were
47:43
not willing to accept. Like an
47:45
individual with sixty nine, prior crimes
47:47
are getting out. And committing murder nine
47:49
days later. However, you have to understand what's
47:52
going on with this process. So
47:54
we generally distinguish armed. There's two
47:56
types of risk assessments. One. Of
47:58
the clinical assessment. And if it
48:00
in the Us but it a england has a very. Similar
48:03
system. Arm and
48:05
then there are actuarial assessments.
48:07
the clinical assessment in individuals
48:10
meeting with usually a forensic
48:12
psychologist. Definitely a clinical psychologist.
48:14
They're being put through on the
48:17
series of questions. And examples to
48:19
determine their potential risk for violence
48:21
to self or others. Now that's
48:23
gonna happen over the period of
48:26
I'm weeks, but more so months
48:28
you're meeting with the same individual.
48:30
Going through these. Clinical Assessments:
48:33
Okay. To
48:35
were real Assessments are where you're
48:37
using instruments to determine likelihood of
48:39
risk. I've. Done a lot
48:42
of this work. For instance, with
48:44
the lethality assessment on protocol. It's
48:46
an assessment to determine victims of
48:48
domestic violence, risk of being murdered.
48:50
So where are they are at
48:53
risk for some sort of low
48:55
level violence still terrible vs where
48:57
they at risk for lethality. Ah.
49:00
The actuarial evaluations take into consideration
49:02
data that we have from analyzing
49:04
previous homicides or warm or previous
49:07
high levels use of violence of
49:09
a predatory rate for example, and
49:11
we take a look at what
49:13
factors were present in those cases
49:16
and then we create an actuarial
49:18
list. Oh, for instance, with homicide
49:20
you know is there a gone
49:22
present in the home to the
49:25
individual have a past history of
49:27
using violence? Ah has the individual.
49:29
Threatened violence to this particular victim
49:32
or another victim Once you get
49:34
enough check marks on this actuarial
49:36
lest we that I deem you
49:38
as a risk low, medium or
49:41
high. So now that so I
49:43
think it kind of see these
49:45
are not exact sciences. The now
49:47
they're not you might call assessment.
49:50
it's does the one person you're
49:52
interacting with deem you to be
49:54
a threat. One of the things
49:57
I came to learn working with
49:59
psychologists. Who. I went violence. In general,
50:01
noxious domestic violence was listen were
50:03
in settings in which everyone's violence.
50:07
And there for you're asking us to
50:09
determine some level of violence. So perhaps
50:11
this and I'm not saying this happened
50:13
in the case button him years the
50:15
for instance. Perhaps in this case this
50:18
individuals. Being deemed medium. Because
50:22
there's also people. Being deemed hi
50:24
who have done even more heinous, more
50:26
egregious thinks? I'm not saying that happens
50:28
current, but it's a possibility. Second of
50:31
all, if the individual was deemed medium,
50:33
Risk versus hire us because
50:35
they received an actuarial assessment
50:37
they might have heard for,
50:39
but not a indicators of.
50:41
Potential violence? So this is not
50:43
in any way inexact science know
50:46
and I don't think anyone you
50:48
know we're dealing with human beings.
50:50
In human behavior and indices,
50:52
you cannot always measuring predict
50:54
these things. Six Mom My
50:56
arguments here Tracy is. I.
50:59
Think he wouldn't have really
51:01
mattered that much. Between.
51:04
Medium a high risk based on
51:06
what I read because the difference
51:09
as I understand it, there would
51:11
have been hired, he'd been deemed
51:13
high risk. He then would have
51:16
had to stay in what's called
51:18
a probation. Hostile says some cooks,
51:20
some kind of. You know,
51:22
housing there was a little bit
51:25
more restrictive and then he'd have
51:27
to cheer to a curfew. And
51:29
where are you know when ankle
51:31
monitor. A Gps Munger. Skiers.
51:34
Where I think. That still wouldn't have
51:36
been enough in this case
51:38
because what this guy did
51:40
according to the London Police
51:43
was. He never
51:45
even went to his first. Probation meaning
51:47
soon like Britain either.
51:49
Thought he was done, he was
51:51
out and he wasn't going to
51:53
follow the rule. and because it
51:55
bureaucracy and because it takes time
51:57
by the time he doesn't show
51:59
up. Then they're trying to locate him
52:01
and then the issue something that's the
52:03
equivalent to an arrest warrants. It's too.
52:05
Late to because of aura is
52:07
dead. Sure, So. My.
52:10
Argument on this one is. Maybe.
52:13
They would have noticed that he wasn't
52:15
as be you know offenders, hostile or
52:17
whatever their hotel is and that he
52:19
didn't check ins and so maybe they
52:22
would have been on the lookout for
52:24
him a little sooner. But. Then
52:26
they claimed they still couldn't find them
52:28
And it, You know what I'm saying.
52:31
You know that would have ended it.
52:33
I hear what you're saying. this individual
52:35
seems to have predatory violent tendencies of
52:37
the end and your argument is. Whether
52:40
he was released under medium
52:42
supervision, others as a medium
52:44
risk offender or under high
52:46
risk supervision, the fact remains
52:48
that this individual i'm probably
52:50
was already hell bent on
52:52
engaging in some violent act
52:54
On a list of what
52:56
you're saying is completely plausible
52:58
and in this case unfortunately,
53:00
it's that ah, I'm so
53:02
skill for again For me,
53:04
looking at it from the
53:06
system. Perspective. It's. We. Want
53:09
to reduce? The the potential risk
53:11
risk assessments are not an exact science
53:13
yet. But we also and I'm
53:15
gonna are no points with your audience
53:18
here. You know where there
53:20
were no very interesting place. Keep in
53:22
mind the modern criminal justice system is
53:24
about one hundred years. Old we've
53:26
been studying. Human behavior for thousands
53:29
of years? So where is a
53:31
very inexact science at this point?
53:33
But here's what I'm going to
53:35
say. We have to decide in
53:37
a democratic society. Do.
53:39
You want to? Any
53:42
one A do you want to
53:44
hold imprisoned in implore you know
53:47
in Korean A A facility. Anyone
53:49
who shows any potential risk. They.
53:52
Are for resulting in. All.
53:54
Her incarceration of individuals who actually
53:57
would not have engaged in Byland
53:59
be. The beer. Or.
54:02
Do you want to? Let.
54:04
A few people out who engage in violent.
54:06
Behavior to ah reduce the
54:09
likelihood that you're holding on
54:11
necessarily people who are truly
54:13
rehabilitated. Unfortunately, I think
54:15
those are two. I'd.
54:17
That's where we are and you don't like it.
54:19
I don't like, don't know, They're very much choice
54:22
as I have seen. don't agree with you he
54:24
says I agree with these and that's why it's
54:26
not a win win. It's all know that this
54:28
point. that's why I so wanted to have this
54:31
conversation about this case because it really. Forces
54:33
us to us to think and
54:35
make decisions about. What
54:37
we think is justice and
54:40
despair here. you know? Because
54:42
sometimes there are people that no matter
54:44
how many times you tell them no,
54:47
the only thing that works with them
54:49
is literally behind bars. Now Is it
54:51
possible? Is it possible that as if
54:53
he had been labeled high risk and
54:55
that he hadn't made. It home and
54:58
blew his curfew from the residential
55:00
facility it may be there was
55:02
more supervision spent. Maybe they would have
55:04
acted more quickly. It's I think that that
55:06
is. Possible. I think
55:08
that that is possible, but his blowing off
55:10
his probation hearings also tipped off the police
55:12
that it was time to get started and
55:15
and start looking for the man's And then
55:17
there's another land to that surf. First you
55:19
have the immediate question as I said at
55:21
the beginning and the podcasts once said this
55:23
guy ever have been let out. Okay,
55:26
So. You. Have that whole.
55:28
Series of factors that
55:30
you must. Evaluate. And
55:32
then there's the fact that London,
55:35
certainly in this part of town,
55:37
has. Security cameras. On
55:40
the streets And that they
55:42
are monitored by people, right?
55:45
By. Different council districts to keep the
55:47
streets safe. And.
55:50
Here. We have a man between midnight
55:52
and to and we're going to show
55:54
you this video where he's going to
55:56
win in right and yet. Nowhere.
56:00
In this time period because Xsara
56:02
wasn't till till after to. The
56:04
I. Did. Anyone
56:06
connect the dots and say. How.
56:09
Do you look at a man who looks like he's. Drunk
56:11
and he swaying and he's chasing
56:13
women. Do you think he's just
56:15
a drunkard who can't. Do any
56:17
harm or do you not know
56:20
he's a recent parolees with a
56:22
violent past month intoxication of lack
56:24
of a stop him from committing
56:26
a crime. I mean. The
56:29
the things that this man did.
56:31
there was a few standing outside
56:33
a restaurant watching the woman and
56:35
masturbating on the streets. This this
56:37
this went on for hours and
56:39
he wasn't stopped. So this raises
56:41
the question for all of us
56:43
as a society. You. Know:
56:45
the penal system, the justice
56:47
system, the security system, the
56:50
police system, Failure.
56:53
Across the board. Failure.
56:55
Failure. Failure. Of let's
56:57
get in plus get into the details and
56:59
then stressing gonna ask. you more about
57:01
you know the the that the
57:03
different parts of this. Man,
57:07
this is just unbelievable. So
57:09
he was released in June.
57:11
Seventeen June Seventeen. Of Twenty
57:13
Twenty two? Okay, and as
57:15
we said, he blew off
57:17
his parole meetings. And then by
57:20
the twenty fourth. There. Was the equivalent
57:22
to a warrant issued for his arrest and then
57:24
within. The next thirty six hours the
57:26
man goes on the reign of terror
57:28
and this is when women are being
57:30
stopped and finally one is murdered. So
57:32
much of this is captured on camera
57:35
and and so you all the surveillance
57:37
video because this is why it's so
57:39
chilling you watching. These. Women
57:41
were running for their lives
57:44
spread. Your. You're seeing the
57:46
precursor to the ultimate. Act
57:48
of Violence. Yeah. I'm I'm just
57:51
gonna say this: There isn't a woman out
57:53
there who's listening to this and I'm sure
57:55
a lot of men as well who know
57:57
exactly what that fear. Is when you find
57:59
yourself. The dark space late at
58:01
night, you know, especially when you're younger
58:04
and all the sudden you're scared and
58:06
and you're being followed in you're running
58:08
Right now. everyone has experience this. Okay,
58:10
this chilling said it's It's just unbelievable.
58:13
So takes place between June Twenty Fifth.
58:15
In June. Twenty Six of Twenty Twenty
58:17
Two. And you see, This man
58:20
prowling and looking for a
58:22
victim now. right? After midnight,
58:24
he'd been kicked out of a bar. For.
58:26
Harassing women, sexually harassing
58:29
them and. Go reading them.
58:31
Circuitry seats so very. Have a
58:33
man whose kicked out for this inappropriate.
58:35
Behavior. right? A question is.
58:38
Is that something? That should have had
58:40
a phone call to the cops. I don't know. Certainly.
58:43
That helped. Is it right? Hindsight
58:45
is twenty twenty. Isn't that what
58:47
they say? I'm really difficult things.
58:49
The average person is probably looking
58:51
at him as an annoyance and
58:53
not rides as though he. Yeah,
58:55
yeah. and so this again when
58:57
we look at cases, You. Know
59:00
in the rearview mirror it's easy
59:02
to see all of the places
59:04
that we would have intervened, but
59:06
the average person is not making
59:09
these assessments of at all and
59:11
obviously the average person does not
59:13
know who this individual is. They
59:15
have no idea that Jordan is
59:18
a convicted felon who has at
59:20
least a medium risk assessment applied
59:22
to him. The best
59:24
tested you really use
59:26
really really strips. report
59:28
their seeds, People see him
59:31
as an annoyance or threat. Was he
59:33
just another drunk. Guy who was
59:35
inappropriate or was he a killer?
59:37
right? Oh my gosh. Okay
59:40
so he's been kicked out of the barn.
59:42
You can see him on on these videos
59:44
where he swaying. You know he's not steady
59:46
on his feeds. we are, no other is
59:48
intoxicated, whatever. But he is not steady on
59:50
his feet. Now I want you to watch
59:53
this video. Those who you are watching. those
59:55
if you're listening and describe it to you.
59:57
So he's following this woman. Her face is
59:59
blurred. Out and he's after her
1:00:01
and she's accelerating her pace and seats
1:00:04
tries to get away from him from.
1:00:06
And. She darts into a grocery stores.
1:00:09
You can see all the fruit
1:00:11
and the produce on the sidewalk
1:00:13
and snow. She just walks between
1:00:15
the the produce and goes inside
1:00:17
and he follows her inside. spin
1:00:19
he comes out and he waits
1:00:21
outside she pauses wait to see
1:00:23
like is it safe for me
1:00:25
to go see runs out. Any
1:00:28
follows or thank god she's faster than
1:00:30
him and she manages to get home
1:00:32
safely. She loses and somewhere okay. Now.
1:00:35
Let's get. To. The next victim.
1:00:39
There's a woman walking on one side
1:00:41
of the he's on on. His
1:00:43
side and see is accelerating
1:00:46
her pace because she's worried
1:00:48
about. Skyn. A bad
1:00:50
vibe from this guy is following and
1:00:52
there are even other witnesses on the
1:00:54
street who are watching this and our
1:00:57
panelists crossing the street to the other
1:00:59
side thinking maybe this woman might be
1:01:01
in trouble, see manages to accelerate her
1:01:03
pace fast. Enough where she.
1:01:06
Manages. To get homes and don't
1:01:08
forget the since in a when
1:01:10
the man standing outside of a
1:01:12
chicken restaurant masturbating not seeing. A
1:01:14
woman? Eat. That.
1:01:16
Alone should have been a call to the
1:01:19
police. This is
1:01:21
a product of the world we live
1:01:23
in in which people behave badly especially
1:01:25
late at night related to drinking and
1:01:27
we just think that this is obnoxious.
1:01:29
Behavior. And so this
1:01:31
is as much I think I'm
1:01:34
an example of missed opportunity by
1:01:36
our criminal justice system using called
1:01:38
caption cameras using into investigative tools
1:01:40
as it is a statement about
1:01:43
I'm. It okay.
1:01:45
He was just outside the chicken restaurant
1:01:47
masturbating. Not a big deal, doesn't raise
1:01:49
the kids. It's not enough of a
1:01:51
red flag to call the police. like.
1:01:54
What does that say about the society
1:01:56
in which we live in that this
1:01:58
doesn't hold wreaths? Miller. Have. A.
1:02:00
Police Intervention: A phone call
1:02:03
from a citizen. I. Remember
1:02:05
I was in high school and I was
1:02:07
at the library. I was at the library.
1:02:09
The Public Library. Not. The school libraries and
1:02:11
there was a man across the way
1:02:13
for me with a raincoat. I swear
1:02:16
to you and he flies to me.
1:02:18
I panicked I grabbed my books I'd
1:02:20
even say the library. I ran as
1:02:22
fast as I could our there I
1:02:24
was so scared and I know she
1:02:27
screamed but instead I was really scared
1:02:29
and there was a police officer outside
1:02:31
my brain to the police officers and
1:02:33
I sit him what the man had
1:02:35
done. And. The cops is
1:02:38
candlelight. I was what. May be fifteen,
1:02:40
sixteen years old and he's looking at
1:02:42
me, finds a story kind of funny
1:02:44
and unlike i've got a library or
1:02:46
you know, I'm panicked and I'm running for
1:02:48
my life. I just want to get home. And.
1:02:51
The cop is a slight. Kind. Of mining
1:02:53
it like com ago because it is
1:02:55
is masturbating later you know it. You
1:02:58
know? and it's so interesting. I was just talking
1:03:00
to a student who's looking to do have a
1:03:02
thesis. And a research project I.
1:03:05
I was asking students in my class
1:03:07
about how com and sexual harassment is
1:03:09
for their generation. Be to Some research
1:03:12
is emerging say that the cat calling
1:03:14
from the seventies, eighties and nineties
1:03:16
is reducing you. Know you walk by
1:03:18
a construction site. You walk by a group,
1:03:20
A man walked by a bar. And
1:03:22
the falling that we all and
1:03:24
dirt and it's is it looks
1:03:27
like it is reducing and when
1:03:29
I told some of my students
1:03:31
the is very similar story to
1:03:33
you have I'm having at least
1:03:35
two or three times between the
1:03:37
time I was ten, eleven and
1:03:39
sixteen years old having a man/himself
1:03:41
or masturbate. ah most of my
1:03:43
students were like where where you
1:03:45
live in A and I'm like
1:03:48
oh this is a pretty. Typical.
1:03:50
Seventies, eighties Nineties kind of
1:03:53
experience. I'd like to. Know
1:03:55
from your viewers who. Are younger
1:03:57
than thirty? If this is something.
1:04:00
That ever happened? I don't know. We can
1:04:02
ask them to put in the comments as
1:04:04
the researcher and me as wondering like. Is.
1:04:07
This reducing among the
1:04:09
population that the some
1:04:11
very bizarre stranger street
1:04:13
level of sexual harassment
1:04:15
including exposure and masturbation
1:04:17
is still a current.
1:04:19
Oh I think so. I think either a money.
1:04:21
This case says it. What Is it an
1:04:23
anomaly? I don't know. Ah my as so
1:04:26
often we are may be doing a public
1:04:28
library a public amazingly lifelike will of course
1:04:30
and have them in the public library because
1:04:32
everyone's allowed in this. You know what? I.
1:04:36
And. I was downstairs to the children's section
1:04:38
was upstairs. I remember that because again
1:04:40
I'm a young result doing my homework.
1:04:42
I just. He. Was both the
1:04:44
experience and then the police reaction? Sure,
1:04:46
the police racks and not enough. Perhaps
1:04:48
if I'd been older Mormons for I
1:04:50
would have gone to the librarian and
1:04:52
I should have screamed. Sort of. should
1:04:54
have done a sort of screamed, gone
1:04:56
to the Librarians But instead I panicked
1:04:58
and ran for my life. you know,
1:05:00
and let me reverse because the criminologist
1:05:02
kicked in as opposed to the former
1:05:04
victim advocate social worker. First of all,
1:05:06
I'm really sorry that that happened to
1:05:08
you Anna, and nobody should ever have
1:05:10
to experience that. And you deserved a
1:05:12
better response from. The Criminal Justice. System.
1:05:15
And don't please don't yourself
1:05:17
responsible for not screaming. For
1:05:20
just getting yourself out of there and into a
1:05:22
safe space. Often seen
1:05:24
of sometimes he has don't. You. Know:
1:05:27
snuffer, lean, fleeing. A dangerous
1:05:29
situation is a was very good. Luck
1:05:31
getting yourself out of a dangerous situation. Is
1:05:33
paramount. Anyway, we've taken a left turn
1:05:35
here. Speaking of of the of this
1:05:38
man, the let's let's get back to
1:05:40
it's Jordan. Mcsweeney here. so. We're
1:05:43
We're following him. You know? a
1:05:46
Cctv has captured. Him harassing these
1:05:48
two women very clearly chasing them
1:05:50
and they got away. Police
1:05:52
say that ultimately you know
1:05:55
he made five attempts in
1:05:57
this window. Where. He was
1:05:59
stalking. Women which raises the question.
1:06:01
I raised a little bit. Earlier
1:06:04
as like okay with if the whole
1:06:06
point of having these security systems is.
1:06:08
For peep is for safety
1:06:10
for people to monitor them
1:06:12
and try and save some
1:06:14
once be argument has been
1:06:16
made. That. Apparently.
1:06:19
You know people, Were out sick, they
1:06:22
were not as staff is the usually
1:06:24
are and that apparently it's one of
1:06:26
the people who was monitoring the cameras.
1:06:28
Acid is dealing. with another
1:06:30
situation involving another crime
1:06:33
victims. So. Not
1:06:35
a perfect system. At
1:06:38
once the I want to point
1:06:40
out about security systems is there
1:06:43
are some security systems that are
1:06:45
built to be preventative. For instance,
1:06:48
like a home security system is
1:06:50
other security systems that are reactive
1:06:52
that are meant to provide investigators
1:06:55
or the courts or police with
1:06:57
information to build the case. I
1:06:59
don't know if we're at the
1:07:02
point where I'm cctv called caption
1:07:04
television cameras. These are not cctv.
1:07:06
I'm. Sorry, there's another word for it, but
1:07:08
these, the camera. Systems that are being
1:07:11
used on the streets are actually
1:07:13
as a place where their preventative
1:07:15
or they're just for evidence collection
1:07:17
after a crime has occurred. I
1:07:19
want to say that on. As
1:07:22
and this is something I think that
1:07:24
in particular, you know, individuals under thirty
1:07:26
or kind of grappling? weird like that.
1:07:28
Bob. Gps. Or monetarists.
1:07:30
you know you can have your
1:07:32
friends location. Or your partner's Middle East and
1:07:34
on the phone. I think
1:07:37
a lot of individuals assume
1:07:39
technology is really useful for
1:07:41
preventing crime. I don't think.
1:07:43
Most I'm street cameras
1:07:46
or. Those. Be
1:07:48
put in sharing your location. Is
1:07:50
actually preventing crime? is my being?
1:07:52
you know to alert people may
1:07:54
be in real time. Something's not
1:07:57
right. Maybe. This big maybe?
1:08:00
After. All. Right, Left the bar. For.
1:08:02
Your friend took a cab, source said she would
1:08:05
walk and her friend said desirous. Call me when
1:08:07
you get home so I know you get home
1:08:09
safely which I do with all of my friends.
1:08:11
known as right. I'm not sure it's actually a
1:08:14
great for that matter measures but it does make
1:08:16
us feel better. right or lease. You can start
1:08:18
calling and start. you know, like when I didn't
1:08:20
hear from my friend and I was like oh
1:08:23
my god something's happened nicer calling her entire family
1:08:25
it's and man you know, her brother in law
1:08:27
on a way to the apartments a knock on
1:08:29
the door ios is like for god sakes. I
1:08:32
was on a long. Walk for five hours.
1:08:34
Enough cell service. Okay
1:08:37
but if something had happened, time was of the.
1:08:39
Essence shop. Okay. So
1:08:42
anyway back desirous of see leaves
1:08:44
the bar. Again, her friend takes
1:08:46
the camp. she decides to walk. I really wish
1:08:48
that she had taken the cap. I really do,
1:08:50
but. Course.
1:08:54
Czar. Never called, but that wasn't the only.
1:08:56
Thing obviously that sept everything off
1:08:58
about to some tea name's Jordan
1:09:00
starts to haunt Xsara. Remember excuse
1:09:02
been hunting all. Night right?
1:09:05
And. Then he followed her for a while
1:09:07
and he grabbed her from behind to wrestle
1:09:10
to do the ground. And then he dragged
1:09:12
her body into an area where the camera
1:09:14
couldn't see him. Right now, she does appear
1:09:16
to have been intoxicated enough to probably not
1:09:19
even have been aware of the cameras. I
1:09:21
think he pulled her into a dark space
1:09:23
like an alleyway, obviously. right? To
1:09:25
assault or sexually salter and kill her
1:09:28
for death was a horrible. And.
1:09:30
Long and violent torture his
1:09:32
staff. He sexually assaulted her
1:09:34
and then for nine minutes
1:09:37
he. Beat. The living
1:09:39
daylights out of Or and stomp
1:09:41
donner nine minutes If we're to
1:09:43
sit here and silence for nine
1:09:45
minute know? painful? Know. Horrific.
1:09:48
Or. Worth it, in fact, She.
1:09:51
Was. Almost. Amoled.
1:09:55
She. Was in such horrible condition that
1:09:57
when I'm passers by. Found her.
1:10:00
To. They say they've been so traumatized by
1:10:02
it they can't even they can't and see
1:10:04
what they have seen. Know and.
1:10:07
That's you know that happens a lot. I
1:10:09
would think Tracy with Witnesses square nothing to
1:10:11
do with anything does happen to be there
1:10:13
and now they are forever traumatized. By.
1:10:16
The fact that they just stumbled
1:10:18
upon it? Exactly. Yeah. And of
1:10:20
course, this is particularly heinous because.
1:10:22
The condition that her body must have been in.
1:10:27
Oh. My. God. So. You
1:10:30
know she was stripped. She was clinging on to
1:10:32
life. I mean she was just barely
1:10:34
breathing. A paramedic scott their they tried
1:10:36
over an hour to save her and
1:10:38
she was transported to the hospital but
1:10:41
she was pronounced dead and the next
1:10:43
morning almost at ten am the next
1:10:45
morning. So. They tried for hours to
1:10:47
revive her. Meanwhile, Jordan has left his
1:10:49
Dna behind at the scene and it
1:10:51
isn't all the cameras because remembers the
1:10:54
cameras and capture the actual assault. Sit
1:10:56
on a railing that he apparently. They.
1:10:58
Found his fingerprints because he eats.
1:11:00
remember? he was unsteady that he's
1:11:03
throwing onto this railing to steady
1:11:05
himself so he could stomp honor.
1:11:07
And man, I'm. Of course
1:11:09
all of this video added evidence of
1:11:11
the him for the last few hours
1:11:14
for. Then they found more video
1:11:16
of him arriving at Will looks
1:11:18
like an amusement park he was
1:11:20
saying on a friend's caravan which
1:11:22
is what we call like a
1:11:25
trailer or or mobile homes and
1:11:27
there's even so there's video Him
1:11:29
arriving them is video of him
1:11:31
the next morning taking his clothes
1:11:33
off and putting his clothes into
1:11:36
the trash can because it was
1:11:38
very evidence and then by the
1:11:40
next day they had between the
1:11:42
videos and between the fingerprints. And
1:11:44
obviously the Dna. Wouldn't have may be worth
1:11:46
this quickly but the singer prince would have been
1:11:48
in the system they had. They. Had
1:11:51
identified him and then on June
1:11:53
twenty seventh, They arrested him
1:11:55
and may sound his bloodstained sneakers and
1:11:57
genes in the park where he tossed
1:11:59
them. Out I can. Get.
1:12:02
This, I'm sorry. I've no compassion
1:12:05
here. Jordan tells officers that he
1:12:07
suffers. From a split personality disorders?
1:12:09
yeah? still must have been the
1:12:11
other one isn't. Who
1:12:13
misbehaved the night before? Really? Really?
1:12:16
Oh wait a minute. And
1:12:19
busy. Genius. When.
1:12:21
The cops say well what about all the blood on
1:12:23
your sneakers And the closer we found in the trash.
1:12:25
I was bitten by talk. That.
1:12:28
Level of Lot Yeah, genius
1:12:30
smuggle. So
1:12:33
authorities say after multiple interviews,
1:12:35
Jordan showed no remorse. really.
1:12:39
A couldn't have predicted that one. Know of
1:12:41
course he's not showing any remorse. Oh.
1:12:44
My God they describe it is utter disrespect
1:12:46
for the situation. The man don't have respect
1:12:49
for human life. Give me a break. All
1:12:51
the sudden you're. Expecting him to
1:12:53
find Jesus. The. And please, I
1:12:55
don't even see. I don't waste my
1:12:57
breath on this once. In
1:13:00
November Twenty Twenty two Jordan pleaded guilty,
1:13:02
desire is murdered in murder and sexual
1:13:04
assault, sentenced to life in prison. If
1:13:07
I say. Let us hope they
1:13:09
finally we're done with this man. But wait a
1:13:11
minute. But. We're not. But.
1:13:14
We're not rights because the justice
1:13:16
system isn't so much about justice
1:13:18
of the victims. Okay
1:13:21
this once me I want to flip table
1:13:23
at this one. I know I. See
1:13:27
Okay everyone. Stand. By
1:13:29
we're going to rock your boat here.
1:13:31
Okay, this is incredible. So.
1:13:35
Shorten. The man
1:13:37
So wrong to by the system.
1:13:40
Insists unappealing his sentence because he
1:13:42
feels it's not fair. Oh,
1:13:44
life isn't fair. To him
1:13:47
after you buddy really on
1:13:49
net be livable so. He
1:13:51
challenges his sentence. And
1:13:54
so what does? What Does The justice
1:13:56
system? Do for this guy. So. They
1:13:59
save. Five years off. They
1:14:01
save the five years off. About.
1:14:04
The minimum sentence. If he
1:14:06
must serve. So now it's down
1:14:09
to thirty three years. so I guess
1:14:11
you could say it's t one some
1:14:13
kind of a victory by saving five
1:14:15
years off. And. That's.
1:14:18
In thirty three years from now. He
1:14:21
could really be released a
1:14:23
put an end. He'll still
1:14:25
be alive. Young folks sending
1:14:27
a why does he is
1:14:29
thirty. So he won't even be that old.
1:14:31
Sixty three. Okay,
1:14:34
So I guess you could say it's a victory.
1:14:37
And. Here we go again! Here.
1:14:39
We go dance, disguise gonna come
1:14:41
up for parole and then someone's
1:14:43
going to say i saw his
1:14:45
All these that is not a
1:14:47
threat. Ply.
1:14:50
Now and I know this case. get
1:14:52
see. Of course it it gets me
1:14:54
too. I mean, I want to see.
1:14:57
More. Information about what the
1:14:59
arguments Jordan's attorneys presented,
1:15:02
on why. This thirty eight years to
1:15:04
the fit, the severity of the crack. At
1:15:06
face value, the seems heinous and
1:15:08
I'm. Sure, you know, Thirty eight years? Isn't
1:15:10
enough again some time. So what
1:15:12
What we get in the news
1:15:15
and versus. One is in
1:15:17
the court transcript differ. I'm
1:15:21
not justifying. Ah, I Not
1:15:23
justifying. His behavior. I don't want to
1:15:25
hang out with George and I'm not going
1:15:27
to wait for him for those thirty three
1:15:30
years of mine. Nom. It is
1:15:32
it at face value. It seems ridiculous
1:15:34
that he even had one day saved
1:15:36
off, let alone five years. but again,
1:15:38
I need to see the tasty t
1:15:40
else. Is there something that we don't
1:15:42
have that the court had. And
1:15:45
so that is why this case is
1:15:47
still in. The news in the
1:15:49
Uk? Sure because they are still
1:15:51
trying to figure out what they
1:15:54
did wrong. Who to? Hold accountable
1:15:56
and you know these investigations is
1:15:58
the minimum. Sagacious takes. Robert So
1:16:00
Tsar Aunt told Sky news.
1:16:03
That everyone who failed to xsara.
1:16:06
Has blood on their hands.
1:16:09
The family is demanding accountability.
1:16:11
It's here is an interview.
1:16:14
With Sky News. Sinister identifying
1:16:16
says. Even asked
1:16:19
touching her. Dead. Body.
1:16:23
Even us to Boeing says. It
1:16:29
doesn't compute. We. Constantly
1:16:31
stuck in a list. Of
1:16:34
disbelief constantly stuck in
1:16:36
a lupus. Images
1:16:39
in our mind. About
1:16:41
what happened to her, the horrors
1:16:44
that she sighs. And
1:16:46
pains must has endured. We
1:16:48
live in Ahora so that
1:16:50
is as and far on.
1:16:52
Nas. And. When she says it's like
1:16:54
we live in a horror film that's on a
1:16:56
loop. I. Believe it. Sure,
1:17:00
As and also the fact you
1:17:03
know that that they're the a
1:17:05
publicity is focusing on the fact
1:17:07
that the beating with nine minutes
1:17:09
I mean imagine being is it's
1:17:11
a horrible for us to imagine
1:17:13
as the general public but imagine
1:17:15
being this girl's family, this one
1:17:17
family member and is imagining what
1:17:19
those nine minutes. So it's important
1:17:21
that the general public gets the
1:17:23
details to aren't fully understand and
1:17:26
comprehend how heinous the crime was
1:17:28
but sometimes those details releasing those.
1:17:30
Door. Detail to the general public.
1:17:32
Also on. The other families hearing
1:17:34
that and thinking about that and reliving that I
1:17:36
mean of Mps, They probably. Were president court
1:17:39
without with also really so. But
1:17:41
that and yeah that's and you know.
1:17:43
One of the things I think that
1:17:45
got so much media attention on this
1:17:47
case was because the cctv and I'm
1:17:49
sorry for that cause caption am at
1:17:51
full circuit the cctv is. We really
1:17:53
want to believe that. Which. Which
1:17:56
we my Billie something is gonna
1:17:58
protect us. The very
1:18:00
worst elements of humanity, whether
1:18:02
that's you know, Two
1:18:04
hundred years ago when it was a strong.
1:18:07
Family system that didn't let you
1:18:09
leave the house without a chaperone.
1:18:11
Or it was a hundred years
1:18:13
ago with the emerging you know,
1:18:16
police departments in big cities or
1:18:18
now it's with this technology we
1:18:20
really wanna believe that something will
1:18:22
protect us. me personally, From.
1:18:25
You know the the, the worst,
1:18:27
Elements of our society. and I think
1:18:29
we're you know, We were
1:18:31
moving forward and things are protecting us
1:18:34
but at the same time, these. Horrendous
1:18:36
random acts of violence
1:18:38
perpetrated by individuals who
1:18:40
are are agree just
1:18:42
predators. I. Don't know
1:18:45
how are protected from them? Well there were a
1:18:47
lot of failures. Know are a
1:18:49
lot of blame to go around.
1:18:51

1:18:53

We are the suspects year or more
1:22:39
in wall and fruits year off the
1:22:41
roof of this establishment are onto Broadway
1:22:43
Street in downtown Nashville. Pretty, you know
1:22:45
busy areas as a lot of going
1:22:48
on here was the last from the
1:22:50
roof implemented about six stories of the
1:22:52
street below where the serial land is
1:22:54
in the immediate vicinity of two officers.
1:22:57

1:23:05
how the what not exactly remorseful with
1:23:08
kind of laughing after the fact. Ah
1:23:10
I'm and police said that. you know
1:23:12
that the country singer here created a
1:23:14
hazard as a direct quotes a hazardous
1:23:17
conditions by an axe that serves no
1:23:19
legitimate purpose which I love. yeah generally
1:23:21
drone as year off a roof serves
1:23:23
no legitimate purpose other than maybe some
1:23:26
drug entertainment out on else. Ah but
1:23:28
as I said nobody got hurt and
1:23:30
it doesn't appear as though there was
1:23:32
any series property damage. but ah word
1:23:35
a three days arrested under. Center on
1:23:37
three counts of felony, reckless endangerment, and

1:25:52
Simple. Punches somebody and they fall and
1:25:54
get their head but doesn't if
1:25:56
the temple rightly you still engaged
1:25:58
in behavior that was. Really
1:26:00
risky. Such some sort
1:26:02
of punishment. Ah, I'm.
1:26:06
Yeah. I don't know what it would be. The one can't
1:26:08
think of anything. To you know, clever. I can
1:26:10
not be, if anything, clever or appropriate. So
1:26:12
shut up. Know
1:26:15
now that I was very little. what
1:26:17
do you think Janna what's you wouldn't
1:26:19

1:26:21
okay so probably doesn't have you know
1:26:24
a previous ah much as it moves
1:26:26
maybe some other like disorderly done I
1:26:28
would not and when all hell little
1:26:31
situation over there that you weren't coming
1:26:33
forward with their you how iron ah
1:26:35
there you go sell. Process of
1:26:37
pattern here. Maybe he was
1:26:40
intoxicated. Will anyone be served
1:26:42
by this man spending a
1:26:44
lot of time in. Tail.
1:26:46
I mean I have a feeling it's going
1:26:48
to come down to misdemeanor. I did he
1:26:50
say it's a felony right now? So he's
1:26:53
been charged with yeah, three felony counts. a
1:26:55
reckless endangerment in a misdemeanor, disorderly conduct is
1:26:57
Maybe he just we have to. The disorderly
1:26:59
conduct in the South Pole is that any
1:27:01
does can mean. I think you know it's
1:27:03
really important. I do believe in community server.
1:27:06
right? You have to give back to the
1:27:08
community. I don't know what that means. If that means
1:27:10
you know you're going to fix all the tears and
1:27:12
park benches in this. In the Parker
1:27:14
or something. T should do
1:27:16
something. For the community, I think
1:27:18
it's really important. Can I
1:27:21
have? One more thing is my

it that the street is closed off

1:27:51
it didn't hit someone he's really
1:27:53
