Speaker 2: We're going back on that and we're going to tell
you a story from nineteen sixty. On this day, Florida

So we're going to talk about that. We're going to
bring you to a tender date in which a sugar
baby deal went bad.
Speaker 3: Real bad head.
Speaker 2: Actually, it's gonna be our Lustful Lawbreakers segment. Brian Koberger

years is also coming in the overtime segment.
Speaker 1: So welcome to Crime Wire Weekly.
Speaker 3: I'm Jim Chapman and I'm Kelly Jennings.
Speaker 1: Kelly.
Speaker 3: Anything new, Yeah, there's actually a lot new. And I
think that the news has been wild this week with
updates and big cases and trials that are taking place, big.
Speaker 1: Ones, big ones. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3: And I know that you've been all over Nolan Wells
one yourself.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, I'm invested in that case. I mean,
you know, it's right here around the corner from where
we record. I mean it's literally an hour and a
half away. Been there many times, the Ocean Springs, Mississippi area,
And there's a lot of so much misinformation out there
right now that you know, I'm struggling to correct I mean,
because people make up their minds and they can have
I will never understand how people can have all the
evidence sitting right in front of them and still go
another direction.
Speaker 3: The reality of our life is this, people will believe
what they want to believe, and it's regardless of the evidence.
Speaker 1: I mean, we find, we have videos, you can have audience,
think about it.
Speaker 3: Think about this too, Like you ever met somebody, I'm guilty.
I'll tell you this right now. If I've ever met
somebody before and then my best friend doesn't like them,
I will make up my mind right then. Now. It
doesn't mean over time that that opinion won't change. But
I think sometimes we look through these glasses that we have.
You know, everyone's got their own predisposition to what they
think has occurred or will occur or has occurred, and
it affects the truth. And the truth cannot work that way. Yeah,
you know, the truth has got to prevail regardless.
Speaker 1: Right, I agree?
Speaker 2: All right, let's start out our first story in Forever.
Pretty much I have called this guy d four VD,
not realizing his actual it's you know, who would pronounce
that as David? I don't know, but the edgy way
clearly how her name is pronounced, So we're gonna go
with David. A multi day preliminary hearing in Los Angeles
has given a clear the clearest look yet at the
evidence prosecutors say they have against singer David Anthony Burke
known as David but spelled D four VB in the
killing of fourteen year old Celeste Hernandez.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Burke, who is twenty one years old, is a he's
a murdering the teenager after she threatened to expose their
relationship and damage his music career. He is pleaded not
guilty the first degree murder, continuous sexual assault of a
child under.
Speaker 1: Fourteen, and mutilating human remains.
Speaker 2: A judge is now deciding whether there's enough evidence to
send this case to trial.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Celeste dismember body was found in September of twenty twenty five,
and we covered it on this show. It was inside
the front trunk of a tesla. Uh and they commonly
refer to that as the fronk. Yeah, my corvette opens
from the front. Well, my part has a front trunk,
and it's called a frunk as a regular trunk.
Speaker 1: There you go. Well, you need to step up.
Speaker 3: Girl, it's called a bronk. It's in the back.
Speaker 1: Right, all right. So detectives showed photos at.
Speaker 2: The hearing of the remains pulled from the tesla and
LAPD detective Joshua Buyers describe what was visible. Quote, there
you see the head and torso minus the limbs. Other
photos showed blue plastic fragments embedded in a knee, pieces
prosecutors said came from an inflatable pool that was used
during the dismemberment. Photos of a severed head were also displayed.
Speaker 1: Two fingers were missing.
Speaker 2: Prosecutors previously indicated those fingers carried a tattoo of Burke's name.
Booking photos of Burke showed he had a tattoo of
Celeste on his left ring finger as well. The medical
examiner testified about the autopsy, including two puncture wounds to
the chest and abdomen that were determined to be the
cause of death. An LAPD detective he testified about nearly
fifty sexually explicit photos recovered from Burke's phone and iCloud data.
The images themselves were not shown in open court, but
the detective described them and identified both Burke and Celeste
in some of those photos. The first online contact between
the two, according to testimony, dated back to August of
twenty twenty two, when Celeste was eleven. The sexual relationship,
prosecutor say, began when she was thirteen. Graphic text messages
were read in court detailing passed and future sexual encounters
in discussions about their relationship. Other messages showed Celeste talking
about taking Plan B, getting an abortion, and later expressing
deep regret. One message attributed to her read, I killed
my first kid for you. Throughout the testimony, prosecutors repeatedly
emphasized her age.
Speaker 1: She was thirteen and Burke was eighteen or nineteen during
that period.
Speaker 2: Detective buyers also testified that items were ordered to Bart's
home under aliases under the name Travion Davis. Prosecutor says
he ordered a fireproof matt, a shovel, an inflatable pool,
and several chainsaws from Amazon. Two chainsaws were recovered at
the home and they showed no blood. A third purchase
from home Depot was never found. A burn box described
as a mini cremation style device was ordered under the
alias Victoria Martinez, and it was found unopened and in
its original packaging. Detective defense attorneys rather questioned why it
was not tested for touch GNA given that some people
had access to the home. Criminologist Samantha Torch testified the
blood samples from the trunk of that Tesla, as well
as stains on the garage floor. Matt a rowing machine
and a Tesla charger plug produced statistically strong matches to
Celeste DNA. The defense challenged the strength of some mixed
DNA samples in the decision not to further test those
were covered chainsaws. Prosecutors alleged they made three trips to
the Santa Barbara County after celeste disappearance, including the day
they believe she was killed. Cellar data from a phone
linked to Burke and the motim in is Tesla put
him near Highway one point fifty four, which is the
same stretch of road where Celeste passport ID was later
found by a roadside worker who happened to step into the.
Speaker 1: Brush on the night of the alleged trip.
Speaker 2: Record showed out going calls made from the phone to
Celeste number at twelve to four pm, and body camera
video from a February twe twenty four welfare check was
also played, and it Burke told a deputy that Celesti
had told him she was eighteen and that he hoped
she would be found. And you know, at the center
of this case also was money. Interscope Records executive said
Burke's contract was worth up to nineteen million if future
albums were delivered. His financial manager testified here in between
ten and eleven million between twenty twenty three and twenty
twenty five. So He's mean, Aaron had a ton of money.
And the big concern here was this would get out
that he was messing with his child and it would
ruin his career. And they are framing that as the
motive for this horrific murder of this child.
Speaker 3: I mean, I would have to agree. I think this
is first of all, sometimes I have to take a
step back and think about something. And eleven years old, y'all,
is sixth grade. Just a fer perspective, eleven years old
is a on sixth grade. So by the time she
hadn't even made it to high school. By the time
you're in eighth grade, you're thirteen years old. You're dealing with,
you know, the regret of terminating a baby. You're in
a relationship with someone way too old to ever have been.
You know, this is predatory, that's what this is. I mean,
there's no reason that an eighteen year old should have
any interest whatsoever in an eleven year old. You have
nothing in common, and that alone, in perspective, makes this
just off kilter to begin with. But then you know,
things like the chainsaws that are purchased. We all can
imagine what happened here. She was lured to the home,
they're fighting, he kills her, what stabs her or whatever,
and then they dismember her body with the chainsaws. So
they can harp on the DNA all they want to,
and how strong of a match the DNA is. They
can do all of that. But what happens here is
that we have to let common sense prevail and a
child is missing. You ordered all of these chainsaws. You
can obviously see the premeditation here because things were bought
under fake names, and it's all going to add up.
I know that's circumstantial, I get it, but it makes
sense that money is the is the is the reason,
and she's a child and they figured, you know, hell,
she's been under what his stead here for so long
as a child that they did. I guess he thought
nobody would care. She could go missing and he would
continue to make his millions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, horrifically.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is a little member, a little girl.
This is a little girl. And what as a mother,
and I know you're a father too, but as a parent,
you know, I have children this age right now. They
do not have the capacity nor the uh, the maturity
or ability to be dealing with the level of problematic
things that were happening here. This is a child fighting
an adult and she didn't win, right, So I hope
that he gets everything that he's got coming towards him.
Speaker 1: Same.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, let's go to uh Tulsa, Oakland and
man TikTok. When this thing first took off, do you remember,
like at first, I didn't get on it because I
I don't know, I just thought that it was going
to be a fad or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was the same way. Yeah, I mean I
certainly didn't see it being as big as it is.
Speaker 3: Me either, and with great interesting fun stuff. Because I'm
now I'm I'm addicted to TikTok.
Speaker 1: Come please follow her TikTok, y'all, My TikTok is horrible.
Speaker 2: Please follow her TikTok. I don't don't she wants to
be a TikTok star or something.
Speaker 3: But Jim thinks I want to be a TikTok star.
I just want to hold the fall in love with
my bird. Teddy is a freaking and it's his third
birthday by the way, so happy birthday to my bird.
Speaker 1: But anyway, tiktoks that people can fallow.
Speaker 3: I don't even know what it is.
Speaker 2: I think it's add unspeakable to the podcast or something,
is it?
Speaker 3: I think whatever, it's just me anyway, I don't post
a lot on there, but regardless, I love TikTok. I
like watching the videos, and I like when the algorithm
gets in line with what you what you like. You know,
I've got a lot of policing videos and stuff like this.
But with great things comes a lot of responsibility. And
now it's a couple dealing with some serious problems here. So,
an Oklahoma social media influencer and hairstylist was fatally shot
by her estranged husband less than two weeks after posting
a TikTok video accusing him of being a pedophile. Sarah Gilson,
forty three, was found dead Thursday, July twenty third, alongside
her husband, Jeremiah, who went by Sean Duffy, who's forty eight.
Police say the deaths appeared to be a murder suicide.
A child in the home discovered the scene, which that
I don't know how you even recover from that as
a kid, but a child recovered that scene and is
the one who called nine one one after hearing what
was described as a disturbance. According to police, officers initially
responded to a domestic violence call around eleven sixteen PM
after dispatcher's heard a woman screaming followed by what sounded
like a gunshot. A short time later, a boy called
nine to one one from a neighbor's house and reported
that his stepfather had shot his mother. When officers arrived,
they found both Gilson and Duffy dead from a parent
gunshot wounds to the head. Gilson, who went by at
Miss Gilson on TikTok and she had over thirty thousand followers,
posted a video on July eleventh, participating in a popular
Netflix documentary trend which I've seen this go viral. I've
wanted to do it too. Through that music plays and
it's like you're getting ready, you know, set up for
an interview, and in the clip, she sat in a
chair facing the camera and wrote in a text overlay,
preparing for when Netflix drops a documentary about my soon
to be ex husband, who I just found out is
a pedophile. She added, I wish I was joking along
the hashtags along with the hashtags referencing the trend. The
accusation stemmed from events in early June. On June ninth,
the fifteen year old girl who played on a youth
basketball team in which her ex husband coached and her
to the child and her parent, reported to police that
he had inappropriately touched her during an event at an
elementary school. Another coach intervened and reported the incident. Police
said similar conduct toward the same player had allegedly occurred
over an extended period across multiple jurisdictions and states. Because
Duffy is a member of the Osage Nation and the
incident occurred on tribal land, the case was referred to
the US Attorney's Office for review on a potential lewd
molestation charge. Police contacted Gilson the following day and advised
her on seeking protection. On June tenth, she obtained an
emergency protective order against Duffy in Tulsa County, and then
court records show the order required him to stay one
hundred yards away from her and the home. In the filing,
Gilson alleged Duffy had a firearm, threatened suicide, and Quote
went on the run. The same day. The mother of
the fifteen year old player had also filed for a
protective order, alleging Duffy had kissed and touched her daughter,
invited her to his hotel room during the tournament, and
offered her money to Quote keep quiet. Gilson had previously
sought protective orders against Duffy in twenty twenty one. Those
were dismissed after she did not appear for the hearings.
Gilson leaves behind two children. A GoFundMe was created to
support them, with Gilson or with organizers describing Gilson as
an incredible mom whose children were the center of her world.
Police said the investigation into the deaths continues, but there
is no ongoing threat to the public. The molestation allegations
against Duffy remain under federal review.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you're watching this on Patreon right now,
you're seeing a screenshot.
Speaker 1: Of the actual post that she did with this trend
on Netflix.
Speaker 2: And it's interesting that when she released that, it actually
shut up on my feed.
Speaker 3: That's how I saw it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And of course a few days, you know, shortly thereafter,
find an article that says she's been killed.
Speaker 1: And I remember when she put that.
Speaker 2: On there, I was thinking, oh man, that's going to
have a repercussion. You know, I didn't know anything about
the case, but in my mind, I'm thinking number one,
I'm thinking.
Speaker 1: I hope she's not falsifying that. And he didn't do anything.
Speaker 2: I didn't know anything about that case, and sometimes he's
divorces can get ugly. I wondered if it was certainly
you know, I was in shock when I heard that
same girl had been killed because I don't even follow her.
It just shut up on my feed, or didn't follow
her when she was alive. It just shut up on
my feed as a recommended follow. But horrific and she
was mad and she's beautiful girl.
Speaker 3: And that video had one point five million oh yeahs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was everywhere, and apparently h push this asshole
over the edge. You know, if he's indeed guilty of
all of these things and then killed himself.
Speaker 3: And I would have to argue here that it's probably
true because well, the reason I would say that, Okay, obviously.
Speaker 2: We don't know.
Speaker 3: Obviously we have no clue. But what I would the
reason I say that is because if he offered her
money to quote keep her quiet, then.
Speaker 2: Silence that would point to guilt. That would point to guilt,
and just a horrible situation. And a child involved in this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, my own my own friend and she
was my bridesmaid, was murdered by her husband and their
child witnessed it. And these are just things that you
I don't know how children are so resilient, I'll give
them that, and that's one thing that I guess is good.
But to witness something at this magnitude that young. We
got to pray for those kids. Yeah, that's I mean,
life altering obviously, but just that's bad.
Speaker 2: All right, Let's go to uh Tucson, Arizona and Nancy
Guthrie back in the news, of course. Nearly six months ago,
eighty four year old Nancy Guthrie vanished from her Tucson,
Arizona home, and the complete contents of that first ransom
note have been sent or sent to her family have
been made public for the first time.
Speaker 3: Let me ask you this real quick. Didn't TMZ release
part of the ransom note or something at first?
Speaker 1: You will?
Speaker 2: There were seven ransom notes and TMZ did release one
cent to them, to them, OK, to them, this was
not that particular note, and there were pieces of this one.
I want to say, they reported on. Yeah, but never
has the full ransom note been read. So crime journalist
Briana Whitney read the full note on Crime Junkie podcast.
The message was addressed directly to her daughter Today's show
co anchor, Savannah Guthrie, and it was sent on or
around February second of twenty twenty six, which was one
day after Nancy was reported missing. According to Crime Junkies reading,
the note began, Hello, Savannah, we have your mother Nancy.
Speaker 1: She is safe but scared.
Speaker 2: She will be held for ransom and once payment is
received she will be released unharmed. We will be holding her.
Speaker 1: For a maximum of seven days.
Speaker 2: It then demanded millions of dollars in bitcoins, starting at
four million, with the deadline of Thursday, February fifth, which
escalated to six million if that was missed, with the
final deadline of Monday February ninth, at five pm. The
note continued, Once payment is received at the Bigcoin addressed below,
she will be released within twelve hours of deposit to
a safe drop off location back in Tucson. If the
payment is not received by the last deadline on Monday
the ninth, by five pm, she will be killed. Your
mother is aware of this, and her life is in
your hands. It is in the best interest of everyone
to have this completed ascent as possible. You will not
be able to contact me from here on out. There
will be no negotiations. Do not play games. Law enforcement
will not be able to help you. Authorities have previously confirmed.
The note contained specific details about Nancy Guthrie's home that
were not public at the time, including the location of
her Apple Watch with a white band, left on the
floor near her bed in a disabled floodlight on the
back porch. Those details led investigators to treat the communication seriously.
A second note, since day's letter from the same IP address,
with the final deadline still approaching, took a sharply different tone.
It claimed Nancy died shortly after the abduction from what
the sender described as heart related to issues. The messages
stated the captors did not fully grasp the seriousness of
her physical conditions, and said her death was unintentional, claiming
she was quote buried in nature, and offered an apology.
The FBI had had said some ransom communications were determined
to be illegitimate extortion attempts, while others remained under investigation
as potentially legitimate. A California man has already pleaded guilty
to sending fake ransom demands.
Speaker 1: Can you believe that related to this case?
Speaker 2: No other arrest had been made in connection with the disappearance,
and the investigation continues to be treated as a kidnapping
for ransom.
Speaker 3: So a few things about this case, And obviously I'm
going to preface this by saying speculation. You know, obviously
I have no more information than you or anybody else
about this case. But I am just really feeling like
this is what it is in this instance, Like they
took her because they asked for an amount that they
I think they did their research on Savannah Guthrie, first
of all, and I think they knew what her income.
You can look that up online and see what celebrities
you know, make and all that net worth. So let's
just guess here. I don't know this, but let's just
guess they're only asking for like three percent of her
net worth. You know, then they fully would have expected
she'll she'll pay the money, and then we can release
the mom and then we're rich and life is good.
However they did I think they did. I think they
underestimated how necessary her medication was. And then you put
that old woman under that kind of stress and she
has a heart attack and die. You know what I'm saying, like,
you can't look at the unintended consent or the consequences
if this was your first kidnapping, of what that body
will go through, what that person will go through, and
then she up and dies, and they're fucked like, oh
my god, we didn't This is not what we wanted.
You know what I'm saying, This is not what we
wanted at all. And I think they panicked. I do
think that they panicked, and they said, oh my god,
this is not the plan. What do we do now?
And that's why they would send another letter and say
this was not intended. We did not mean to do that,
you know, because I don't know that they necessarily did.
Speaker 2: Well, here, you and I have two different theories, right, go,
So here's my thought. And of course, y'all we are
totally speculatingdah, we don't know. Obviously, we know nothing.
Speaker 1: I have thought for a long time that.
Speaker 2: They killed her intentionally, okay, that it wasn't a natural
cause this thing. And I think the reason they did
it was they did not realize how big this was
going to be, you know. And no, I don't think
they realized that the President of the United States was
going to come out and say, you have all the
resources you need to get Nancy back. And I think
they freaked out because they're like, if we if we
return her, we're taking an even bigger chance because they
likely would have been caught if that would have had
the information she had some and somebody's gonna see something.
Speaker 1: They were probably worried about that.
Speaker 2: And they knew if we just wash our hands of this,
say she died of natural causes, we can get out
of this.
Speaker 1: There's too much heat.
Speaker 2: I don't think they thought it would be this much
heat on this case. I mean, in today's show, host,
you wouldn't think would be that big of a deal.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: So this is where the question, Yeah, yeah, absolutely, and
I like talking it through with you because everybody's got
different thoughts and we don't know. But my thing all
goes back to her pacemaker. If I didn't have any
intention of using her as a bargaining chip, like proof
of life or something like that, then I would have
thought she would have been done rather quickly. But that
pacemaker continued working for a while. And that's the only
reason why they don't know that. Well, they do know
when it cut contact with the Apple device or when
it stopped functioning with you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like a Bluetooth.
Speaker 2: That's like if you're wearing Bluetooth headphones and you can
get too far away from your phone and it disconnects.
They don't know that the pacemakers when it stopped. They
just know when she was far enough away that it
was no longer connecting with.
Speaker 1: The Apple Watch.
Speaker 2: You can't get to Mexico if you're in the United
States and your Apple Watch stay connected to your pace.
Speaker 3: But I thought they had pacemakers now that could send
live data to that could send live data to.
Speaker 1: Not that I'm aware of.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I don't know either.
Speaker 2: My understanding was the it has to stay connected via
Bluetooth to the device whatever that is in her case
and Apple Watch. And when she got far enough away
where that antenna, if you will, wouldn't reach, it just disconnected, which.
Speaker 3: Would have meant that they kept her close by.
Speaker 1: No, it disconnected so she was far by. You just
know what.
Speaker 3: But I'm saying it didn't disconnect immediately. Wasn't it like
it went on for hours before?
Speaker 1: I don't remember it saying.
Speaker 3: See stuff like that, those little nuances, those that small
detail is stuff that we would have to really.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't remember them saying it went on for
a length of time.
Speaker 3: Well, I'll just leave it at this. Then I'd be
very interested to know the exact amount of time and
not speculation, but the exact amount of time on that,
because if it did stay connected, let's say for forty
eight hours before it disconnects, Oh, I know.
Speaker 2: It wasn't that long. It was it was within an
hour or less. I'm telling you. It's like your headphones
on your you ever wore Bluetooth headphones and then got
too far away from or or your your car connects
to your Bluetooth and on your phone, and maybe you
leave your phone at your house and you drive to
the store, and eventually as you're driving off together to
the store, you're it disconnects from your.
Speaker 1: Phone because that's at your house, same situation.
Speaker 2: You're talking minutes, okay, not not any longer than that.
That's to my recollection. Now, certainly I could be wrong, right,
but that's that's to my recollection on that. Regardless of it,
it's horrific and I don't know that it Sadly, I
don't think they're ever.
Speaker 1: Going to find this, Nancy.
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't think they will either. So just
a quickly a quick research here says and again just
a quick research says, a Bluetooth enabled pacemaker typically stays
connected to a sinct smartphone or device only while within range,
which is thirty feet, and loses its active pairing connection
if moved out of range for more than roughly twenty
four hours.
Speaker 2: And so so it's going to disconnect the second they
leave the house. Now it'll and what they mean by
pairing is you'd have to repair it after twenty four hours.
Speaker 1: But it's not going to know where whether it's ticking.
Speaker 2: Or not for twenty four hours's only going to know
it can only know when it's connected.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, that makes sense, and it says that
data on her particular like type, according to this quick
search again, is typically transmitted automatically once a day, usually
between twelve am and four am, which.
Speaker 1: You would have to be connected for that to happen, right.
Speaker 3: Right, right, So you know, hey, I don't claim to
know everything, you know? And so come on, I was
tested and they said negative for knowing everything. But yeah, yeah,
I think that she will be a very hard find
at this point.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 3: All right, let's stay right here in Livingston Parish, Louisiana,
the great state of Louisiana. But this is big, okay,
And this just hit the news. So a Morrero woman
is facing charge. It not Marrero. Where's Marrero?
Speaker 1: That's it like down by New Orleans.
Speaker 3: Yeah okay, So people who aren't from here would know
that this is not in the parish. It's out of
the parish. A Morrero woman is facing charges as part
of an investigation into online and phone threats, harassment, and
extortion right here in our parish. So, according to the
Sheriff's office, deputies arrested Haiti or Tez, she's twenty nine
years old, and booked her into the LPSO Detention Center
on the following charges unlawful dissemination of AI nude photos
on line, impersonation, injuring public record, extortion, and domestic stalking.
One alleged victim was receiving threats of rape and other
bodily harm in exchange for monetary funds to prevent threats
from happening. And that's according to our sheriff, AI generated
photos and shriff art all right, thank you.
Speaker 1: The wonderful people in other states don't know who it is.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 1: Give him a shout out.
Speaker 3: Shout out, sheriff. I know he's listening, all right. Uh.
An AI generated photo or photos and videos were created
of one of the victims and were sent out to
numerous family members and friends. As the investigation continued, the
sheriff said more threats were sent to the victims, now
threatening to get one of the victims employments terminated. According
to the Sheriff's office because of allegations of overseas suspects
being involved due to past relationships and acquaintances in Greece.
Homeland Security helped deputies in this investigation. The investigation took
a wild turn when search returns and subpoenas from search
and suspect platforms used to make these harassing messages and
threats started coming back. The investigation led back to an
individual and the questioning of as at first believed to
be a victim, but she's now the suspect.
Speaker 2: Haiti Ortiz talk about a twist in that case, and
so as I understand it, she was doing this to
other people, and it looks like she did this to
herself to throw the throw the scent off of her,
if you will.
Speaker 1: So if she's making AI.
Speaker 2: Images of herself, she can say I'm a victim. Thinking
police will never put two and two together with dumbas lpso.
Speaker 1: I'm not always going to know.
Speaker 3: I know, well, you know. This kind of is adjacent
to something I saw yesterday, a report where an Uber
driver had sent or accused these teenagers in his car
basically of damaging and destroying his car, and so he
had he had fined the rider's seventy five dollars, which
I didn't know you could do because I don't I
don't Uber. But anyway, the dad of the two girls Suber, Okay,
I'm not jumping in a stranger's car. I'm sorry, I'm
just not I'm not doing it. But anyway, the dad
of the girls, they went and told their dad and
he's like, what are you talk about. They're like, we
didn't do anything of this guy's car. Well, then the
the Uber driver submitted pictures of the damage that they
did to the vacseat. It looked like food or vomit
or something was all over the seat. Well, the dad's
looking at it, and I was like, well, hold on a
damn minute, because in the right hand corner of the photo,
which you wouldn't have noticed unless I guess you were
scrutinizing it was that little Gemini symbol, you know, it's
like a kind of like a diamond. And he's like,
that's AI. And so they contacted Uber, who promptly apologized
and sure enough it was fake.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to watch it.
Speaker 3: You have to watch it.
Speaker 1: Man, some stuff today, But I'm still mind blowing. You
don't Ober, I do not Uber.
Speaker 3: You won't market place on marketplace.
Speaker 2: But if you travel, how do you get to your destination?
If you travel, you fly somewhere.
Speaker 3: I get a rental car, Okay.
Speaker 2: I mean that's Coolah, we'll check it out.
Speaker 3: But like I get off a plane, right I may
not have a weapon available, and I just don't want
to get in a stranger's car.
Speaker 1: Really taking a taxi only in New.
Speaker 3: York where I'm in the midst of millions of people
with other people. I'm just I don't know. That's a
weird one for me. I don't like school.
Speaker 1: It's just awesome. I don't think I've ever met anybody.
Speaker 2: But you're right, I won't do marketplace, all right, I
read too many crime reports.
Speaker 3: You jump in the uber and I'll go by the
awesome anties.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll do that, but back to that quickly.
Speaker 2: This is going to be a continuous problem with AI
and photos and things like that. And the sad thing
is they don't really have anything that can determine whether
it's fake or not.
Speaker 1: As of this point.
Speaker 2: There'll be little idio secrecies in some of these pictures,
but some of them.
Speaker 1: Are, won't.
Speaker 3: I think the laws we can look for these laws
to be changing very rapidly as we get a grip
of what's going on here.
Speaker 1: That's right now.
Speaker 2: I mean, we just passed a law here in Louisiana
about uh about that creating fake AI nude images and
then extorting people. Yeah, within the last six months, right.
Speaker 3: And then the argument too became about well what if
it's okay, So, like we have child predators, right, and
they like to have child porn on their foot on
their phones, Well, what if it's not real? What if
it's fake images of child porn? Are we going to
allow that? And the answer for that, right, and so
the answer is no, we don't care if it's fake,
we don't do that. That's weird and it's unacceptable. So yeah,
like I said, I think we're in the right direction
of starting to make make laws against it.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: All right, let's go on the true crime time machine.
Maybe booo, we're going to get a July first, excuse me,
July thirty first of nineteen sixty and I'm going to
tell you about a Las Vegas school teacher named Russell
Allen who was searching for decorative rocks in a remote desert.
This is in Congress at well near Congress, Arizona, and
he uncovers a partially buried remains of a young girl. Okay,
This discovery in a creek bed in that area would
become one of the most haunting unsolved cases in Arizona.
History and in the Southwest. The child, estimated at the
time to be between the ages of three and six
years old, had been dead for one or two weeks.
Her body showed signs of having been burned. She was
found wearing white and red shorts, a distinctive checker blouse,
and an adult sized and adult sized rubber flipflops that
have been cut down to fit her small feet and
secured with leather stripes. Her fingernails toenails painted bright red,
and no definitive cause of death could be determined due.
Speaker 1: To some advanced decomposition and.
Speaker 2: The effects of the summer heat, but the death was
ruled a homicide. Investigators noted two other disturbing areas of
soil nearby that appeared to be failed attempts at a burial,
along with adult footprints and possible tire tracks. So the
community obviously deeply moved by this this is a young child,
residents bound together. They raised money for a proper funeral,
and the little girl was buried under a headstone that
simply read quote little miss Nobody with the words blessed
or the pure in heart. For sixty two years, her
identity remained a mystery despite nationwide appeals at the assistant
and countless leads. On March fifteenth of twenty twenty two,
the Sheriff's office announced that advanced DNA technology she had
finally given her a name, Sharon Lee Gallagos. Sharon was
born on September sixth of nineteen fifty five in New Mexico,
Alamo Gordo. She was two month shy of her fifth
birthday when she was abducted on the afternoon of July
twenty first of nineteen sixty. While playing with two cousins
in an alley behind her grandmother's home, a couple in
a dark green nineteen fifty two Dodge sedan approached. They
offered her candy and new clothes, and when she refused,
the woman, described as a short, heavy set person in
her thirties with dirty blonde hair, grabbed the child and
forced her into the car. The man, described as thin
with sandy hair with a long nose, drove away at
high speed. Witnesses, including her cousins, immediately reported the abduction.
Roadblocks were set up at the New Mexico Texas border,
but the couple was never found. Investigators later learning the
pair had been seen in that area for several days,
if not weeks, before that kidnapping, and they were asking
neighbors to pointing questions about Sharon and her mother.
Speaker 1: At the time, authorities.
Speaker 2: Briefly considered whether the Arizona remains could be belonged to
the New Mexico girl, but differences in clothing, an initial
age estimate that seemed slightly older, and the roughly five
hundred miles distance between the areas led investigators to discount
that connection. Technology of that era just was not advanced
enough to confirm or rule it out with any certainty.
Now that change with modern forensic science, and in twenty
twenty one, the Sheriff's office partnered with AUTHRAM, which is
a Texas based forensic laboratory specializing in degraded DNA samples.
Using forensic grade genome sequencing, scientists extracted a usable DNA
profile from skeletal remains. Despite the extra degregation and genealogy
that pointed to a potential biological sembling, Rapid familiar testing
confirmed a match with Sharon's half brother. The identification, announced
nearly sixty two years after this body was found today,
is the oldest case connection cold case identification rather in
the County's history, and it were ranks among the oldest
salt cases by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
So while Sharon Galagos finally has her name back, the
investigation into abducted and murdered her continues. Authorities are still
looking for information that could identify the man and woman
in the green car and explain what happened in the
roughly ten days between her kidnapping and the discovery of
her body in the Arizona Desert. Sharon's remains were eventually
returned to her family, and the little girl once known
is little Miss Nobody, is no longer forgotten.
Speaker 1: Exactly sixty two years later.
Speaker 3: You know, nineteen fifty five, it says was her birthday,
and that's the year my mama was born. And to think,
you know, that you've gone that long and nobody know
who you were is just a tragedy. I think we
could all agree that, you know, I wish it was
a little Miss Unknown, not little Miss Nobody, that.
Speaker 2: It was a weird, weird choice of words, but that's
what the community chose.
Speaker 1: And but.
Speaker 3: This is almost like a community tomb of the unknown
soldier in a weird way, you know, like people regarded
the child, you know, they cared if they didn't know
who she was and to be found in a creek
bed like that. But you know, the captors are probably dead.
The killers are probably dead at this point because she'd
be in her seventies. That make these guys probably you know, nineties.
So will it be solved, Probably not. But I can
tell you, sitting here today, I would have much much
rather be able to identify her and let her rest
in peace and her family know than to catch her
killers at this point. It's it's moot if they're dead,
you know. But genetic genealogy. Genealogy is a gift. Uh,
it's incredible. I've said this before, but I spoke personally
with the incredible C. C. Moore, who really has you know,
driven this, this this science, and I think that only
good things are going to come come from this.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 2: And if you're watching on the Patreon right now, of
course we do the video versions of this podcast, you
can see the actual headstone with little Miss Nobody on it.
Pop that up for you, as well as a newspaper article.
Speaker 1: Yeah on the case.
Speaker 3: Just because it's old doesn't make it any less important.
And so I'm glad you. I'm glad you wrote that
one and cover that one. That's a good one. All right,
let's go to Stark, Florida. Now we're about to get
dark and to the point with this one, because Ron
DeSantis is not joking. Is not joking. F a fo So,
Florida executed a former police officer Tuesday afternoon and planned
a second lethal injection hours later, marking the state's first
double execution in more than sixty years. James Aaron Duckett,
sixty eight, was pronounced dead at one nineteen pm following
a three jug three drug lethal injection at Florida State Prison.
He was the eleventh inmate executed by the state in
twenty twenty six. Dominic Anthony O Kee Cooney is how
I had to look that one up because it's a
different Okcone Junior, he was eighty, was scheduled to follow
at six pm the same day, which would make him
the oldest person executed in Florida's modern history. The pairing
of the two executions on a single day is the
first in Florida since May of nineteen sixty four, when
Emmett Blake and cy Dawson were electrocuted. Same day executions
were more common in earlier decades. State records show Florida
carried them out thirty two times between nineteen twenty four
and nineteen sixty four. Nationwide, the last time a state
conducted two exit acutions on the same day was in
Arkansas in twenty seventeen. So the South is like not
playing around.
Speaker 1: With these executions.
Speaker 3: Duckett, a former Mascot police officer, was convicted of the
May nineteen eighty seven rape and murder of eleven year
old Teresa May mcabbey, and on the night of the crime,
the girl walked to a convenience store. Duckett, the only
officer on duty, was seen interacting with her near the store.
Her body was later found in a nearby lake. Medical
examiners determined she had been sexually assaulted while alive, strangled,
and then drowned. Duckett maintained his innocence for nearly four decades.
His case rested heavily on circumstantial evidence, including fingerprints, tire tracks,
and a hair comparison. Later questioned by defense experts. Recent
DNA testing ordered after a stay of execution on an
earlier warrant, returned inconclusive results. Oki Kone was convicted in
June of nineteen eighty six. It was multiple murders. It
was the murders of Rain and Martha Artzner, the parents
of his ex girlfriend. And this was at their home
in Holiday in Pascoe County. Sorry, I'm struggling here with
all these locations. He shot Raymond in the face and
shot Martha four times, including three times in the chest.
He received a death sentence for Martha's murder and a
life sentence for Raymonds. At the time of the crime,
ok kone was angry over the couple's role in the
breakup of his relationship. I'd have to argue here that
those parents were probably right sound talking. Yeah. Both men
were sentenced under non unanimous jury recommendations that would not
meet today's standards in Florida, which now requires at least
eight votes for death. Duckett's jerry voted eight to four
for death. Okone is voted seven to five. Both spent
nearly four decades on death row. Last minute appeals to
the Florida Supreme Court and the U. S Supreme Court
were denied. Duckett's lawyers argued unresolved questions of innocence and
DNA handling. Okcone's attorneys cited his advanced age, sidney and
prostate problems, and other ailments, contending that lethal injection could
constitute cruel and unusual punishment. Sorry, kJ comment here, Get
out of here, Get the hell out of here, because
I think shooting people in the face and in the
chest multiple times is forty damn cruel. Not to mention
their daughter had to live her entire life, so I
don't give a shit about your prostate, sir, all right.
Governor Ron DeSantis signed the warrants. He has accelerated the
pace of executions in his final years in office after
relatively few in his earlier terms. Florida carried out a
record nineteen executions in twenty twenty five. DeSantis has said
the goal is to deliver long delay justice to victims' families,
noting many of the crimes date to the nineteen eighties. Critics,
including anti death penalty groups, called the double execution and escalation,
and question both the logistics of back to back procedures
and the fairness of cases involving non unanimous juries, advanced
age and lingering evidentiary disputes. Again, age doesn't matter to me?
Does it matter to you? I could care less. Prison
of Fifi did not publicly detail any special logistical measures
required for the six hour gap between the two lethal injections.
Florida uses a three drug protocol consisting of a sedative,
a paralytic, and a drug that stops the heart. Florida
has carried out twelve executions in twenty twenty six, continuing
its position as the nation's busiest death penalty state this year.
Speaker 2: A couple of things on that man, you hit the
nail on the head. Florida don't play Obviously, they're rolling
them out two at a time.
Speaker 1: That's a big deal.
Speaker 2: You know, I know there's people out there don't agree
with the death penalty. Sure, the evil that I've seen
in cover every day. My personal opinion is there's some
people that just don't deserve to be breathing oxygen. I'm
sorry to say that, but that's my opinion. Now that
being said, one thing I do want to say is,
you know Governor Desciantists, who has done a phenomenal job
in Florida. Everything in Florida lightly seems great. There areomy
is on fire. He has got to be one of
the best governors in history, and I'll tell you what
he turned out, So he's not going to be governor
this upcoming I think twenty twenty eight is when the
new governor will start there May And if I was
in Florida, I'd be like, term limits suck, even though
I'm a proponent of that in most instances. In this instance,
that's where term limits are bad things.
Speaker 1: Well because people.
Speaker 3: Like that, Well, whoever he endorses is going to really
matter because you know he'll expect them to follow on.
But you know, I wanted to bring this up to
our listeners because it's just a thought to ponder here. Okay,
but back to this discussion about unanimous juries, because that's
been brought up. I this is unanimous jury specifically, is
a topic that my opinion has changed dramatically because when
I first heard about unanimous jury, like in a perfect world,
I was like, hell, yeah, you're right. You know, if
this is a death penalty case, I I think that
everyone on the jury. Now again this is old me, okay,
but everyone on the jury would obviously see this as
death penalty worthy. You know what I'm saying, Like, this
is a capital case where you've done something so egregious,
so horrific, so dark and devious, that everyone on the
jury would see that the death penalty was warranted. AKA,
let's talk about like a school mass shooting. But the
person who changed my mind on this, and it only
took minutes, okay, is a man named Max Shacter. Max
Shacter is the father of one of the victims in
the Parkland shooting in Florida. And what he told me
that changed my mind was that the killer of all
of those kids, with a documented history of being a
nuisance and a problem, the only reason that he was
not executed for what he did to those kids was
because there was a juror who from the jump said,
I don't care what happens, I will not vote for
the death penalty. So one person can throw an entire
jury as far as getting the death penalty. So my
mind has been changed on this permanently. I don't believe
in unanimus suries.
Speaker 1: Talk to me, no, go for it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like in the case of someone
being executed, somebody there has some the situation that you
brought up, that's why you have strikes, and so the
prosecution didn't have to allow that person to be on
the jury. They obviously did. They didn't use their strike,
so that's their fault. Quite frankly, if somebody says no
matter what, I'm not going to guess what that disqualifies.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but if they didn't say it at that point
in the in the jury selection, you wouldn't know, Well.
Speaker 1: That's correct. So they said it after, is what you're saying.
Speaker 3: From what I understand.
Speaker 2: From what I understand, Okay, well if that's the case,
that's a different scenario. But to me, if you have
a jury for something as serious as being put to
do out because guess what, people have been put to
death that we're innocence doesn't happen all the time, But
DNA has exonerated people off a death row. Look it up.
It's a pretty shocking number. So it happens. If you
have a jury and let's say two people are one
way and the rest of the jury is another way,
there's some doubt somewhere on that jury. I feel like
for capital cases, I'm not necessarily against it.
Speaker 1: I know it's very.
Speaker 2: Hard to get twelve people do agree on anything, but
on a capital case, I don't know. I mean, I'm
kind of on the fence on that I haven't seen
enough to change my mind that it's not a good idea.
Speaker 3: Well, if you're if you're like I think about it
too in terms of like a school, Okay, you pass,
if you make an A. You don't have to have
one hundred percent A. You just have to have a
really good score of A. If one person from the
jump tells you, I don't care what happens, I won't
vote for the death penalty. I don't find that to
be fair because if you're on a capital.
Speaker 1: Case but they didn't say it till after, well.
Speaker 3: That's my understanding regardless. I don't know that they should
have alternates. I mean, I don't know the process. I'm
not an attorney here. But but if you this from
the jump, are not willing or able to come down
with a capital punishment verdict, then that means you're not
an objective person. Because you're told that at the beginning
that this is a capital case. You know that these
this will include that type of ability, and I just
don't like, I don't know. I just go back to
that Parkland thing and all.
Speaker 2: But that doesn't happen in every every jury. You're using
one situation and saying we should do away with the
whole law because one guy did that on one jury,
I would say the majority of juris the vast majority,
probably nine hours. If you give your oath that you
can be fair and impartial, you give your oath that
you can be fair and impartial. I would say that
that's not There's not one person on every jury, and
in capital case that has that opinion, because there's tons
that are unanimous for the death that'll be But if.
Speaker 3: You're looking at it, and I won't believe it, but
I'm just at this. If the law states that if
you do this, that the death penalty is an appropriate
according to the law, that the death penalty is appropriate
for what has happened, and then you just look that
law in the face and say, Nope, I'm not going
to do that. Don't care. I just don't find that
to be justice. I don't find that to be fair
because eleven people on the jury.
Speaker 1: I agree with you. Yeah, I'm just saying that's not
every case.
Speaker 3: But if it was my kid one case, if it
was my kid in that one case, it would matter
so wholeheartedly. Of course, you know.
Speaker 1: In that one case, but you you let that idiot.
Speaker 2: It sounds like this guy was an idiot control the
law for the entire country because he had he pulled
that off.
Speaker 3: I just don't think that a unanimous jury is probable
in a death penalty happens. I just don't. But I
don't think it's I don't think it's going to be.
I don't know how to explain what I'm saying. I
don't think that it's more. I'd have to look at
the stats on it. But I guess what I'm telling
you is this, I was wholeheartedly for unanimous jury. I
thought that it would be captain obvious to everybody. That's
the death penalty. It just, I guess didn't occur to
me in that moment that you can be the best
person on the planet with good morals, good values, good
sense of direction, but still be against the death penalty.
And that means from the start this person may not
get just desserts that as I see fit. And again,
that's a personal.
Speaker 1: Thing out there like that, that's what you jury strikes for.
Speaker 3: Right Well, I don't know. All I'm saying is my
opinion is able to be swayed, and hey, it could
change again.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to sway it right now.
Speaker 3: It could be changed again. But I will tell you
what Alex shafter. I will never forget that child. I
will never forget what he went through. And to know
that one person walking around Florida denied that family the
peace of mind have known that that ass white will
never you know, breathe again. I just it irked me.
Maybe it's all Maybe it's an emotional agree with you,
you know. Maybe it's just an emotional knee jerk moment.
Speaker 1: But all right, well, let's lighten it up. Yeah, let's
lighten up.
Speaker 2: Let's go to lustful lawbreakers. All right now, I've got
an interesting one for you today. A sugar baby arrangement
has gone bad when a young woman who apparently wanted
nothing to do with the strings attached fled a home
of a Florida man who then gave chase and his truck,
rammed her vehicle, pulled a gun on her friend, all
these sorts of things. That's right, It went bad quick,
according to investigators. David O'Brien, who was sixty seven, mind you,
he meets Myra Turbik, who was twenty one this month,
on the Tender dating app during a subsequent exchange of messages,
O'Brien explained he was looking for a sugar baby, and
according to the ad on tender, he would pay one
thousand dollars each visit, plus dinner, and provide shopping excerch.
Speaker 3: Sounds goody, Jay, you know I am a sugar baby, Jim,
but I'm married him and he loves me.
Speaker 2: So O'Brien and the sugar baby as it were. They
agreed to meet for a meal this past week, and
Turbick was driven to the date by three of her friends.
Speaker 1: Okay, to meet this guy O'Brien.
Speaker 2: They hook up, they meet, they have dinner, He gives
her two hundred dollars. He then took her to the
lingerie store, where he bought her three different items of lingerie.
After O'Brien provided Turbick with another six hundred dollars at
the restaurant. The pair then goes back to his residence
in a retirement community, which O'Brien purchased in April, incidentally
for two hundred and seventy thousand dollars. Tourbick then tells
police that she began to feel kind of uncomfortable in
his home and she contacted her friends and said, hey,
come pick me up. So with his sugar baby wanting
to leave, O'Brien says, wait a minute, now, you should
give me my money back because that was part of
the agreement. Declining the refund request, Tourbick says, now you're
not getting none of your money back. She leaves the property,
gets in the car with a friends and leaves the area.
O'Brien pissed off about this. Apparently, he jumps in his
Ford f one fifty and he starts to chase the
four people. He subsequently rams the vehicle at a traffic circle,
causing it to strike a poll He then allegedly came
around again and hit the victim's car again, causing it
to become disabled.
Speaker 1: So, while Turbick and two of.
Speaker 2: Her friends run, a twenty two year old mail occupant
of the car was confronted by O'Brien, who pointed his
send me automatic rigor at him told him to get
on the ground or he will kill him. Eventually, O'Brien
became distracted, and the victim told cops he was going
to be shot or run away, so he chose to
run away. The defendant then attempted to locate other victims
briefly until he heard sirens coming. And when the deputies
get to the scene, O'Brien was at his f one
p fifty, had the gun in his possession, and Turbic
and her three friends they came back and everybody gives
a report, and in this report they said they were
in fear of their lives. During questioning, O'Brien said the
topic of sex first came up during dinner, with more
details of the arrangement.
Speaker 1: To be discussed with Turbi.
Speaker 2: Upon returning to his home, so O'Brien added, he began
a massage Turbick's feet and she was on her phone
the entire time.
Speaker 1: How insulting that is.
Speaker 2: Insulting now, When the woman later announced she was going
to call an uber, O'Brien told cops he knew thing
he weren't going to go as planned, and he asked
for his money back. After Turbek refused the cash.
Speaker 1: He said he knew he had been scammed and angered.
That angered him and that's what led to all this
chasing down, the run and pulling of guns. So, after
initially being read as rights, O'Brien told police of a
prior sugar baby that he had. He said that paid
relationship worked out perfectly for him. So seen above.
Speaker 2: So if you're watching this on Patreon, you're seeing this
above the screen, you can see the guy. He definitely
looks a little bit older, and he has been booked
into jail for this stunt on a ninety thousand dollars bond.
Speaker 3: All right, I think my opinion on this might surprise you.
I really do. But let's be for real right now. Okay,
everything that man did after the woman walked out of
the house was wrong. Okay, totally wrong, totally wrong. However,
whenever you're a sugar baby, now, I've really never been one,
so I don't really know how this works. Okay, but
I have a very very hard time believing that this
woman did not understand that there would be a sexual
component to this. I have a very hard time believing
that you went and bought lingerie, you went and did
these other things come on and she said, according to
what you read, she said sex came up at dinner
and that they were going to talk about it. So
I'm not an attorney here, but I do think that
there is a mitigating factor insofar as he was being
led to believe that this payment was being affront for
what would come to be. So if she knew sex
was being discussed at dinner, why did you continue to
play along, take all of his money, go back to
the house, and then call people to come get you.
It does feel like you were scammed out of your
money now, sir, sir, sir, I'm sure there is an
old lady in your retirement community who is a freak
and she would do these things for free. So you
just need to stay in your age group. Maybe it'll
get easier. But you did dead wrong. You shouldn't have
done that. And the poor guy who got the gun
pulled on him glad you made it out of that.
But I do I do have to say here that
this does I do feel like he got played. I'm
just gonna tell you, I feel like he got played.
Speaker 1: Well, there's no doubt about it. He totally got played.
But you can't react that way.
Speaker 2: No, Fortunately, you need to say, you know, maybe this
is my wake up call that I don't need to
be on tender looking for sugar baby, right right? I mean,
I mean that shit can happen.
Speaker 3: What is your favorite candy, Jim reesis do you know,
minus sugar Baby.
Speaker 1: Oh it is interesting. So just those are good too.
Speaker 3: They're really good, but they get stuck in my teeth.
All right. I hate this guy's name, I hate talking
about him, I hate even giving him any any light whatsoever.
But I'm about to talk about Brian Coburger. On July
twenty third of twenty five, a judge sentenced Brian Coberger
to four lifetimes in rism without the possibility of parole.
And I think we're all pretty familiar with his four
victims that were slaying. It's going to be Xana Kernodle, Kayleegansolvus,
and Ethan Chapin, as well as Madison Mogan Well. Just
over a year later, on July twenty seventh of twenty six,
Coburger requested a withdrawal of that guilty plea in a
petition for what's called post conviction relief, which was filed
in Idaho's Fourth Judicial District Court. Now. Coburger writes in
an affidavit attached to his petition that his council failed
to inform him of exculpatory discovery that was turned over
by prosecutors during plea discussions, and suggests that this evidence
would have changed his decision to enter a guilty plea
to the murders, and this is a quote, namely, clumps
of hair found in Ethan's hands, Coburger writes in the filing.
So on January twenty seventh of twenty three, the Trace
Evidence Unit at the FBI finalized a report detailing the
results of laboratory testing that had been done on evidence
found at the crime scene. That report revealed that debris
had been found in both the right hand and of
Ethan and the left hand of Xana, whose bodies were
discovered just a few feet apart from one another. The
debris was examined for hare's microscopically consistent with hares in
the head hair sample from Coburger, but none were found,
according to the report, which was included in a filing
made by his attorney, An Taylor on June the sixth
of twenty five. This is approximately one month before Coburger
agreed to the deal with prosecutors. The debris in Ethan's
hand is not described as clumps of hair in any
court filing or police record, but rather in retired FBI
agent Chris Whitcomb's book about the murder's broken plea. So
Coburger's petition and accompanying affidavit echo many of the questions
posed by Whitcomb in his book, which was released in
May and seeks to understand the reason for the unexplained
plea made in the case. In press appearances and interviews
following the book's release, Whitcomb claimed that the clumps of
hair in Ethan's hand had not been tested to his knowledge,
and in Coberger's affidavit, he writes that there was a
failure of further inquiry into that evidence. According to a
court document unsealed earlier this year, the DNA expert hired
by Coburger's defense team had in fact tested the hair
in Ethan's hand. That expert Ruth Ballard examined one hair
from the right hand and found it to be morphologically
consistent with decedent Chapin's own reference hair. It's unclear if
Coburger knew of Ballard's findings prior to the filing of
his petition, or if he plans to claim that there
is some unexamined clump of hair that the FBI or
DNA experts had not tested. So, if I'm understanding that correctly.
He found his own hair in his own hand. Is
what their own defense expert said. Isn't that how you
understand that to be sound? Yeah? So this is not
Coburger's only grievance, which I don't find that to be
a grievance. I mean, of course, your own hair if
you're fighting in you know you would I would expect
your hair to be in your own hand if you
were fighting for your life. Anyway, it's not Coburger's only grievance.
As he makes additional arguments in the petition for a trial,
Coburger claims that he had ineffective assistance of counsel and
that his guilty plea was not entered knowingly or voluntarily
because it was induced by unkept promises and because of
threats asserted by his legal counsel. Even though you stand
up in court before the judge and they ask you,
have you been promised or threatened? Blah blah blah anyway,
all right. Those arguments about Taylor may be hard to
prove because she is only one of the few carefully
vetted and accomplished litigators in Idaho approved to represent defendants
and death penalty cases, which Coburger's was before he entered
his plea. To avoid the outcome, the former criminology student
He's thirty one, also had assigned and written factual basis
document which stated he was willing to hereby admit responsibility
for the deaths of his four victims, who are all
brutally stabbed to death. On November the thirteenth of twenty two,
Coburger fully further admitted that the killing and murder of
his victims was wilful, unlawful, deliberate, with premeditation, and with
malice afterthought in the factual basis document. He again admitted
to the crime on the day of his sentencing last
year and was asked, are you pleading guilty because you
are guilty? This is according to Judge Stephen Hippler, and
the answer he gave was, quote unquote yes.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a prime example of the justice
system just going awry. This God did it. Everybody knows
he did it. And of course, you know, hey, I
don't fault him for grasping at Charles whatever. I get that,
but dude, you freaking did it. You said it in court.
This is why appeals drive me nuts. There are some
very limited circumstances where appeals are in order.
Speaker 1: This is not one of those circumstances.
Speaker 3: This guy right here, Well, what's happening here is that
he loved the attention he got, He loved being all
over the news, he loved taking the responsibility for these murders.
And now that his happy ass is in prison and
he's having to deal with the consequences of everything, now
he's unhappy. So he's filing forms that you know, all
inmates are going to want that post conviction relief. But
what bothers me about it? To your point, I agree,
But what bothers me about it is that this is
the prime example of why our justice system and our
courts are backed up, why it takes forever for things
to take place, because we have numb nuts like him
who are wasting time. Yeah, you know, and if he
is also, if he's indigent, and if he's found to
not have funds, the taxpayers are the ones funding this
pony show, right, and it's going to result in nothing,
that's right. Enjoy your consequences, sir, You did.
Speaker 1: It all right.
Speaker 2: Well, let's let's go to Chicago, all right, Illinois, And
I'm gonna tell you about a pretty crazy scheme that
this guy actually got away with for a while. He's
a Chicago YouTuber and he built an online following showcasing
high end cologne and perfume collections. And he has now
been charged after authorities allege he ran a sophisticated return
fraud scheme involving modeling clay and used bottles. So his
name is Philip Carter. He's thirty. He faces three felony
counts of mail fraud and three misdemeanor counts of theft
by deception. Cook County authorities say he ordered thousands of
dollars worth of luxury fragrances online, so I want you
to keep that mind. So then he removes the original bottles,
he replaces them with modeling clay or used bottles. He
carefully reseals the packaging so it appears unopened, and then
he returns the package for a full refund. The investigation,
dubbed Operation O de Fraud by the Cook County Sheriff's
Office Organized Retail Crime Unit, begins in March after Nordstrom
reported suspicious returns. The retailer will receive boxes. The boxes
look sealed, but when they unsealed, them modeling clay was.
Speaker 3: Inside, Like, wouldn't just common sense tell you to go
buy an off brand perfume from Walmart put that liquid
in it? You would think, like, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Well, he pulled it off. For quite a while.
Speaker 2: Investigators will review financial records, internet at Internet activities, shipping data,
and other evidence. And on July twenty second, twenty twenty six,
they get a search warrant for his apartment and get this,
they recover seven hundred and fourteen fragrance bottles with an
estimated value of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, along
with resealed boxes ready for shipment. Package is already filled
with modeling clay, additional modeling clay, a heat gun, glue,
and other materials, So we.
Speaker 1: Got all the evidence.
Speaker 2: Shall also operated a YouTube channel dedicated to Fragrances where
he would display these collections, and he built quite the
following doing that, and authority say his scheme allowed Carter
to keep genuine fragrances while receiving refunds for the packages
he returned filled with freaking clay.
Speaker 1: So look, he got away with it for a while.
Speaker 3: Fun fact here, I actually collect miniature vintage perfume bottles.
I like them. I don't care if they have the
fragrance in them or not. It's about the bottles. But
I was on my what Not app I do love
me some whatnot and there were people that were selling,
you know, on their channel, They're selling these high and perfumes.
I don't understand. How will you buy a perfume you
haven't smelled before. I don't understand how you do that, because, like,
I'm very sensitive to smells.
Speaker 1: Are you a lot of people?
Speaker 3: Am I weird?
Speaker 1: Got to the stone. I do not buy perfume.
Speaker 3: I'm very you can.
Speaker 1: Go and they got testers.
Speaker 3: Man, no, but he's but if he's but if you're buying.
Speaker 2: Them the online, know what Kelly like? If you wear Drakar,
you know what you smells like. Oh?
Speaker 3: I thought people were just buying new perfumes like to
try popular.
Speaker 1: These are like obsession and stuff, So.
Speaker 3: They're getting a deal by buying I got it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, it's just selling colone.
Speaker 3: Okay, I got it. I don't know. I just always
thought it was weird that people would make that much
money selling cologne on these channel if they haven't smelled
it before. Because people what does it smell like? And
he's like, oh, flowery, And I'm like, that's that that
gets you to buy a hundred dollars bottle of perfume
without Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, I mean people do their research.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well either way, Hey, you had a good scam,
but your perfume?
Speaker 1: Do you wear.
Speaker 3: My natural mood?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: I do, actually, but I'm very sensitive to smell. So
you know, the what's the stuff that every girl was
wearing from Alta? The number like number sixty seven or whatever.
It's the one that every girl became big. I wear
that because it smells nice. But that doesn't help much,
does it. No girls will know what I'm talking about,
like their numbered and it's orange and it was like
a big scent, like everybody was going crazy over it
smells good. That's what I wear. Jim Now, jim Ware
is a cologne. Can we talk about your colone?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 3: Jim Were is a cologne that smells really, really good.
And I have a name for it. That's not its
real name, but it was dubbed by a lady at
the grocery store and he came talking to me one day.
He's like, Kelly, I wore my cologne. I sprayed it
before I went into the store. Do you remember this,
oh woman that was checking him out?
Speaker 1: He asked me what the name of it?
Speaker 3: She said, what's the name of that cologne?
Speaker 1: What is it?
Speaker 3: What are you actually?
Speaker 2: Well, the name of it is Savage, but it's by
deal War Okay, But at the time, I couldn't. I
never can remember. A lot of people asked me what
sin is that? Yeah, I'm on the spot, so I'm like,
I can't remember. And she said, she told.
Speaker 3: Him, well, it should be named panty.
Speaker 1: Draper liquid, paint liquid. Can y'all let me tell you.
I'm never at a law for words ever, And she
got me. I couldn't even I even have. I just
looked at her and I'm.
Speaker 3: Like, Coy's phrase it. Now, I'll go parad.
Speaker 2: They should call that Linke wood Pain. Looked me right
in the face when she said it, and I'm like.
Speaker 3: Dang, he liked she liked her some Jimathy.
Speaker 2: I didn't say nothing. I just I just looked at
her like I've never been told that. Damn all.
Speaker 1: Right, check it out, check it out. It's good stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll sell it to you online. Just and it
feels like modeling clay. Yeah, all right, uh, let's do
some foolish felons because this one is going to take
us to Jones County jail. Uh and this is going
to be in Mississippi. So a job interview for a
corrections officer position at the Jones County Adult Detention Facility
took an unexpected turn earlier this month when the applicant
was arrested for an outstanding felon. He warn't Keishawn Moore, thirty,
had applied for a corrections officer job with the Jones
County Sheriff's Department and reported to the jail for an interview.
During that process, Captain Cynthia Terrell or Terrell conducted a
standard background check. That check revealed that Moore was wanted
in neighboring Lamar County on a felony credit card fraud warrant.
So I guess you know you gotta just do what
you gotta do, but wow, take yourself right onto the jails.
Speaker 1: Sorry, all right.
Speaker 3: Jones County Deputy Davy Keith was called to the detention
facility and placed more under arrest on the spot. Moore
was taken into the custody of the Jones County Sheriff's
Department and later transferred to the Lamar County Sheriff's Department
to face the outstanding charge. Officials with the Jones County
Sheriff's Department confirmed the sequence of events, but have not
released additional information about the underlying Lamar County warrant, any
statements more may have made during the interview, or whether
he had prior contact with either agency. No bond or
court appearance details have been made public at this time,
but this case serves as a stark reminder that applicants
for positions of public trust in law enforcement and then
corrections are subject to rigorous vetting, sometimes with immediate and
unexpected consequences. And we want to give our shout out
to listener Jessica Hartwell for sending us that story. And
that is your foolish felon of the day.
Speaker 1: You can't beat that. Definitely a foolish felon.
Speaker 2: Probably not a good idea to go apply for a
prison job when you have warrants.
Speaker 3: And look, he's dressed nice.
Speaker 2: I like his shoes, nice, looks like he was ready
to get the job right. Unfortunately they ran his name.
I mean, come on, man, what are you thinking? You
know you got warrants. There's nobody in the world that
has warrants at nothing. I love when I watch these
clips from BODYCM footage and the people walk up to
the car and they say, well, you know you got three?
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 1: What did I do?
Speaker 3: What did I beat my wife?
Speaker 2: You?
Speaker 1: What you did? He met? What you got Warrens for?
Speaker 3: I was watching a TikTok one time. It was so funny.
But you know, cops know their areas, right, and so
they know their criminals, they know their people that are
frequent flyers in jail. And this cop goes and he
pulls this car over and the guy jumps out and
when he sees the cop, he takes off running and
the cop doesn't chase him, and you're like, what the hell?
And he's like, Eddie or another guy's name, Eddie. You
don't have Warrens, bro, you don't have any And he stops.
He turns on. He's like what I don't He's like, no, bro,
you don't have Warrens. He's like okay, he comes walking
back to the cop. That's good stuff.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, uh, let's go into overtime.
Speaker 3: I'm ready, let's do it.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: We're going to start off in Ashburn, Virginia, and look,
if you're a Kansas City Chiefs fan, the offensive coordinator,
Eric Banemy, say a prayer for him. The fifty seven
year old wife of the offensive coordinator, was shot multiple
times this past Sunday night at the family's home in
Louden County, Virginia. Their twenty seven year old son has
been arrested and charged in connection with that shooting. Now
Deputies from Lyden County Sheriff's Office were reported to a
report of that shooting around seven thirty pm this past Sunday.
Upon arrival, they found me of the enemy suffering from
multiple gunshot wounds, including injuries to the chest and arm.
She was transported to the hospital with serious injuries and
was listed in stable condition as of Monday. Elijah Banimy,
who is twenty seven, was arrested at the scene. He
has been charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm,
and the commission of a in discharge of a firearm
inside a dwelling. He is being held without bond at
the Louden County Adult Detention Center, and Sheriff Mike Chapman
said me at the Enemy, who was the one to
call nine one one following the shooting. So imagine having
to call nine one one and say, my son just
shot me. Eric Banemy, who has been with the Chiefs
training at training camp in Saint Joseph, Missouri, left camp
to be with his wife.
Speaker 1: The team issued his statement.
Speaker 2: Monday saying it was aware of the incident involving his
family and would not comment further out of respect for
their privacy, adding their thoughts and prayers with them. Chiefs
coach Andy Reid addressed the situation after practice on Monday,
saying his heart goes out to Eric B. Enemy and
the mea is stable, which is a plus. We all
love Eric and we hate seeing these things happen.
Speaker 1: Eric B.
Speaker 2: Enemy returned to the Chiefs this year's offensive coordinator, while
previously serving as the teams offensive coordinator from twenty eighteen
to twenty twenty two after spending time with the Washington Commanders,
and the family does maintain a home in Northern Virginia.
Speaker 1: Horrific situation. I remember him Eric the Enemy when he
played college football.
Speaker 3: Yeah, great, we do. He played for it, you know.
Speaker 1: I want to say it was Notre Dame or Michigan.
Speaker 2: I can't remember exactly which team it was, but I
remember he was very good.
Speaker 3: You know, domestic violent situations are always horrible, and it's
in cases like this though, where you know it's your
own child that has done this to you. And I
don't care that he's an adult. That mama, you can't
tell me, wasn't heartbroken. You know that her own child
would do this to her. And I'm so thankful that
she is alive and that she is doing well, and
again our hearts and thoughts and prayers, and I hope
that she does recover and well from this. I bet
you it's going to come out sooner or later that
there's been some mental health struggles with the song. I
would think, yeah, but it made me think about we
used to have a neighbor a long time ago and
everything turned out to be okay. So I just want
to preface with that. But the police had ended up
coming and surrounding the home, and the sun was acting up,
and something just stuck with me because they were calling
the sun to come out of the house. Obviously, all
the neighbors are looking and I will never forget the adult,
the dad of the neighbor when they were bringing him
out to the police, you know, walk walked to us,
walked us, hands up, hands up. He just the dad
was yelling, oh, please don't hurt him, Please don't hurt him.
But the dad was the one that had had to
call nine one one because of some mental health issues.
But hearing that dad yell please don't hurt him, Oh
please don't hurt him, the struggle there isn't lost on
me that you know. This has gotta be rough for
that family. Yeah, all right, let's go to New Jersey
and a New Jersey man is facing multiple charges after
a two year old boy in his care allegedly overdosed
on cocaine while the family vacationed at the Jersey sh
I know two years old man, come on. Alexander Moles,
thirty nine, was charged with endangering the welfare of a child,
possession of cocaine, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of
prescription legend drugs. The incident occurred while Moles was staying
at Did you.
Speaker 1: Say prescription legend drugs?
Speaker 3: Yeah, the when you're looking at like the schedule, like
schedule one, Schedule two, Schedule three, it'll say prescription legend.
Huh at on the top.
Speaker 1: Like legend, Like I don't understand.
Speaker 3: I think it's almost like.
Speaker 1: A legendary drug.
Speaker 3: No, I think it's more like Ledger, Like I can
kind of think of it that way, but I don't know.
I mean, I don't have the official on.
Speaker 1: That, but that I just referred to as that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so like it's it's officially something that is prescribed
and to be used in a specific way, and obviously
he's not using it that way. But anyway, The incident
occurred while Moles was staying at the airbnb with a
woman and several children. Court documents state that Moles was
responsible for watching the children while the woman took a
shower as the group prepared to check out around eleven am.
When the woman returned, she noticed the toddler appeared sleepy.
Moules later drove the child toward a hospital after the
boy experienced difficulty breathing. While en route, He called the
woman and asked if it was okay for the child
to fall asleep. She told him it was not. En
dialed nine point one North Wallwood Fire Department responders located
moles vehicle stopped at an intersection EMS administered two doses
of narcan. The child responded and was transported to Cooper
University Hospital Cape Regional for further treatment. Preliminary blood tests
confirmed the presence of cocaine in the boys' system. Moles
later told investigators he believed the child had taken painkillers.
At the hospital, he requested a lawyer after being read
as Miranda rights. A subsequent search of the Airbnb authorized
by a judge, turned up a partial orange and white pill,
several tinfoil packets labeled a narcotic pain medication, a clear
plastic bag containing a white pottery substance, and several short
plastic straws. Moles was arrested and held at the County
Crewctional Facility. He was released with conditions following a detention
hearing on July twenty fourth. He's represented by attorney John Zirich.
I believe you would say that is The investigation remains ongoing.
Authorities have not publicly disclosed the exact relationship between Moles
and the women and the children. The toddler survived the incident.
But this one's weird. Why would the child be sleepy
after cocaine? I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe when you overdose on it, it has an opposite effect.
I would imagine, I mean, two year old a miracle.
This kid survived this baby. Yeah, I'm two years old.
So man, just never seems to amaze me. People that
are around drugs like that, even drugs that aren't cocaine, right, Like,
if you take medicine for something, get.
Speaker 1: It out of the reach of your kids.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that they were worried about it.
Speaker 2: But in this situation. Yeah, with cocaine, I mean that's
an illegal drug. But even your ones that aren't, even
you're every day drugs, man, don't even leave tilin' all
where a kid can get to it, right. Tragic, crazy
that this this kid was.
Speaker 3: So I was looking at this because I'm thinking about
someone that's high on cocaine, you know, and they're usually
it's an upper you know, they're usually rolling. But it
says that what happens when that heart rate skyrockets, the
blood pressure explodes, the brain becomes over you know, over stimulated,
and with the the body temperture can shoot up over
one hundred and four degrees or sweating, tremors, nause of, vomiting,
dilated pupils. You know all of that, so you know,
so when you ever day so on, it makes you yeah,
you go in respiratory distress is what's going to happen.
And so it's labored breathing and they're not getting enough oxygen.
Speaker 1: That's the second time I've been right.
Speaker 3: You've been so good twice today, guys, please put that
on the official.
Speaker 1: Jimmy might be the only two times.
Speaker 3: Jimmothy got it right. Oh, it looks like look at
his picture with that fireman mustache.
Speaker 1: They see it if they're watching on Patreon. All right,
let's go to uh courtroom chronic. We haven't done one
of those in a while.
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna tell you about a you know, this
is Keyboard Warriors gone wild.
Speaker 1: Right here.
Speaker 2: A married couple who ran an e commerce blog saw
a huge payout after they were cyber stalked and harassed
by former eBay employees. Ana and David Steiner received get
ready for this forty eight point seven million dollars in
compensation after settling a lawsuit filed against eBay. The Steiners
said the lawsuit comes after they filed this lawsuit in
response to the company's widely publicized twenty nineteen cyber stalking
campaign designed to stop their reporting. So this couple founded
a blog and it was called e Commerce Bytes, and
it published a newsletter that eBay employees will they considered
it critical of the company. Well, you know what you
can do that you can be critical of eBay if
you want to. Well, the US Attorney's off for the
District of Massachusetts said that this basically created like a
shit storm in these people's life. The campaign including sending
anonymous and disturbing deliveries to the victim's home the people
who own this blog, including a book on surviving the
death of a spouse, a bloody pig mask, a fetal pig,
and a funeral leaf and a funeral wreath.
Speaker 1: And they also sent them live insects. All this coming
to your house. Can you imagine.
Speaker 2: The campaign then turned to online harassment when the Steiners
began receiving social media messages criticizing the newsletter's content and
threatening to visit the victims at home. The victims were
then surveilled at their home and in their community, but
recognized the surveillance and reported to police. Ultimately, seven employees
connected to EBA's security team were charged in connection with
the case, all who pleaded guilty to various charges. Five
of the defendants were given prison sentences. CNBC and CBS
reported that former eb EBA CEO Devin Wenig texted another
executive quote take her down, in an apparent reference to Aina.
We Nig was not charged with the crime, but eBay
as a company was and entered into what's done as
a deferred prosecution agreement, compelling it to pay a three
million dollar penalty, and as part of the settlement with
the Steiners, eBay will pay the couple forty six point
one five million dollars from the company itself, while we
Nig will have to individually pay them two million dollars.
Two other former executives also owe them a total of
five hundred and fifty thousand dollars. And that's what you
call you messed with the bull and got the horns.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I'm there.
Speaker 1: That is life change of money right there.
Speaker 3: So and now they're discagreeing buck more money to do
better and to do even more I mean online.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good for them, Yeah, you know, good for them.
Speaker 3: I am so unimpressed right now to find out that
that's eBay doing that. Like, you know, when a lion
shouldn't acknowledge when a dog barks. Okay, ebe is huge
and I'm not calling this couple of dogs by any
chance of the you know, but obviously whatever they were
reporting on was striking a nerve which tells me people
only get mad about things that they feel that there
is some truth to That's a fact, right, even if
there's partial truth to it. I learned that, you know,
a long time ago, about myself, Like, why are you
getting mad about? It's because deep down there's a part
of you that feels like what they said may have
some legitimacy to it. And so you know, to send
things that are blanket or not blanket, covert statements that
you're gonna die. Give me a break, man, you're eBay,
you know your eBay?
Speaker 1: I you ever the CEO of the company sending take
them down?
Speaker 3: And what you think that you think that that a
pig of pig fetus is taking them down? What a
douche move? Yeah, So please, I guess he's not gonna
come after me and send me stuff. Send me a
live pig and I will love it and name it Rosa.
Speaker 1: If I can get fifty million, you can send me
a lot big blood on it. Whatever you want. Hell, yeah,
you tell me you get Look, I'm gonna come after you.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna knock on your door.
Speaker 1: And they were probably writing things like eBay's fees are
too high, you know, some people call it sebay. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, and I looked up while you were talking.
Speaker 2: Of that nature and you're gonna try to scare people. Bruh, Yeah, eBay,
you're gonna try to scare people. Right, I'm mnst send
you a book of how to deal with the spouse's
death That ain't funny. Pissed me off.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I looked up a couple of their articles
just now while you were you were doing the story,
and some of them are like, you know, people are
making real money selling on Facebook marketplace. It's a good
side hustle. Like, it's not like they're out being just
like a negative website. They were just talking about issues
that people are experiencing. So yeah, good for them, Yeah,
good for them. All right, we are going to go
to Cape Coral, Florida, and this is going to be
another story kind of like what we talked about identifying
human remains, but human remains that were discovered by kayakers
in Cape Coral, Florida, in a canal have been identified
as those of a young woman who vanished more than
four decades ago. The Cape Coral Police Department announced Friday,
July twenty fourth that the remains belonged to rose Marie Gayheart,
who was twenty three years old when she was reported
missing by her parents in nineteen eighty five. At the
time of her disappearance, Gayheart was living and working in
the Cape Coral and North Fort Myers area. Kayakers found
the remains in a canal in northeast Cape Coral in
May of twenty four, and in May of twenty six,
the department's Violent Crimes Unit received confirmation of the identification
with the assistance of the Medical Examiner's office. For more
than forty years, rose Marie Gayheart's family has carried the
weight of not knowing what happened to her. Cape Coral
Police Chief Anthony Sizemore said in a statement, while this
identification brings long awaited answers, it also strengthens our resolve.
No matter how much time passes, even after four decades,
our investigations do not stop and our pursuit of justice
does not end. Authorities have reopened the case as an
active homicide investigation, and he said that we are committed
to following every lead. Gayheart was last seen working at
a Cape Coral restaurant then known as Big Howie's Hot Dogs,
and she was living in a trailer park in North
Fort Myers with her boyfriend and his mother at the
time that she disappeared. Her sister, identified in earlier interviews
as Travis, told the outlet in twenty seventeen that neighbors
reported frequent fighting at the trailer park and that she
believed her sister had been murdered. Travis also said her
sister's boyfriend's mother had written a letter to the family
claiming Gayheart was being sent back to New York by bus,
but Gayheart never arrived. The boyfriend's mother has since died,
and the investigation remains active.
Speaker 1: You know, when you sit back and thank I, thank
you so thankful for that.
Speaker 2: But when you set and you think about the biggest
sign tip discovery in the history of the world, probably
DNA is it? Honestly the things that have been able
to be accomplished in DNA are vast, but especially in
when it's crime related.
Speaker 1: You know, back in the day.
Speaker 2: They had to identify you from dental records if you
had them. That's the only way. That's the only way
they knew who this person was. Dental records once that body.
Speaker 1: Had decomposed and it was nothing but bones.
Speaker 2: Now, not only can you because even dental records weren't
a one hundred percent certainty. Now with the DNA, and
it's advanced to where there's touch DNA for me.
Speaker 1: In DNA, I mean, at one.
Speaker 2: Point you had to have the blood of the person
and compare it to the blood of the person.
Speaker 1: That's the only way you could do it. Now you can.
Speaker 2: You can go brothers, sisters, cousins and make a match
like this, miraculous gift to the world. Yep.
Speaker 3: And I would have to agree that there's something stick
and here. Why would you write a letter saying you
sent her back to New York by bus and then
she ends up in a canal not far from where
you live?
Speaker 1: No, yeah, oh yeah, something fishy going on there for.
Speaker 3: Sure, super fishy.
Speaker 2: All right, that's all we got for today. kJ Any
final thoughts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, y'all need to check out Jim's exposed because he
is covering Nolan Wells. You've been following that case, yeah,
pretty strongly. And then I'm following the Clancy case of
the children that were killed by their own mother. I
have not released anything on that. I'm just letting y'all
know that I'm on top of it. I know people
have asked, and so y'all can look forward to something
for me on that.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: It's a current, current crime related podcast coming out from
Exposed and Unspeakable for you to listen to. And my
final thought would be, we're only like four weeks from
kickoff LSU. Love me during LSU season. If they're winning,
that's right, I tell you.
Speaker 3: If they're not, he's in a bad mows.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm gonna be in a great mate. If they're
winning the oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: We're gonna be like, hey, guys, there was no crime.
It's a great life's peace.
Speaker 2: All we're gonna talk about is LSU the whole time,
just kidding facts, all right, until next time. I'm Jim
Chapman and I'm Kelly Jennings and we're your host of
