Cindy Overton
He had gone out earlier in the morning. He lives in Colorado, but he's in Dallas visiting or around the Dallas Z area. Tyler area.
Woody Overton
I'm pretty sure that's the word. Huh, Kimmy?
Cindy Overton
And he was saying that he went somewhere and he got stuck in traffic, and there was like, SWAT vehicles, like, beeline and down the road, like, sirens going. SWAT vehicles in the road.
Woody Overton
Police response emergency.
Cindy Overton
Yes.
Woody Overton
Yeah.
Cindy Overton
And so he was telling me about this story, so he sent it to me.
Woody Overton
Cool.
Cindy Overton
He didn't know what it was. He said, I'm going to look it up because it had to been really bad. And so he sent it to me, and here it is. So in Cherokee County, Texas, there's a small town called Bullard, and a Bullard man is dead after shooting himself following a shootout with Cherokee county deputies Monday morning. Sheriff Brent Dixon said the man who shot himself is Sean Turner, and he was 53. Dixon said deputies responded to a call in the 4500 block of FM 2493 east of US 69. At 9:25am when they arrived they saw Turner standing on his porch and Turner began firing an AR style rifle at deputies. Deputies of course fired back and Turner went into his home and he kept firing at deputies. One deputy was injured when he was hit with shrapnel and another had a medical issue. Negotiators then came to the scene and tried to talk to Turner, but there was no response. Dixon said a drone was sent into the home and it showed evidence that Turner was dead. That area of FM2493 was shut down during the investigation and a house which was about 100 yards away was also evacuated. I think the biggest thing is pray, dixon said. Pray for our community, pray for our officers. Every one of them comes to work and wants to protect our community and wants to live, work and play in a safe environment. Here we're human, we're going to make mistakes, but have faith in us, come talk to us, sit down and visit with us like godly people and let's have a conversation and keep our community safe. So that was what was happening there.
Woody Overton
Wow. A lot that going on this time of the year.
Cindy Overton
Yep.
Woody Overton
And some people choose suicide by cop. That's the way it rolls. But we're going to San Francisco and you know, you become a cop, you don't ever expect to get rich and that's just a fact. Same thing for social workers. Teachers, nurses probably make a little bit more, but the social workers let's get a San Francisco and they had a death of a social worker at the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and he died two days after being stabbed by a man who was a patient. Now the victim is being remembered as a deeply caring person, but the tragedy has raised concerns about safety and security. The community gathered to mourn outside Zuckerberg General Hospital Sunday evening with candles in hand for 51 year old Alberto Rangel, who is the social worker who died after being attacked by a patient earlier this week. Quotations I'll just say the social worker was one of the most beautiful people I've ever met in my life. Amazing clinician, Unbelievable loss for staff and community, said Juliet Suarez, who is another social worker. Suarez was remembering her colleague who police say was attacked and stabbed multiple times in the neck and shoulder by a patient armed with a 5 inch kitchen knife. This happened on Thursday and the victim passed away on Saturday. Quotations for him to lose his life at work when he was there to provide Service to patients. It's just not right. It's not right. It's betrayal. According to Maddie Alba, who worked closely with Rangell in the HIV ward of the hospital. She was there when the attack happened on Thursday afternoon. Suarez said the incident was devastating but should never have happened. Members have been raising safety concerns for a long time. War workers have been complaining about safety for years. This is something that should never happen. Suarez said. Well, the dude who did it is now in sheriff's custody and the attack happened in the HIV ward of the hospital and the ward does not have a metal detector. Hospital staff had already raised safety concerns about a patient and requested deputy protection after a doctor in Ward 86 received threats. The deputy was in a nearby room when he heard a disturbance and saw the patient in the hallway stabbing Ragel with a kitchen knife. And you know he, Rachel suffered wounds to the neck and shoulder. But I mean you're in a hospital and if you're going to get stabbed, that's the place to get it. Medical staff perform life saving measures including CPR and the victim was taken to an operating room in critical condition. The day of the stabbing the suspect went to the San Francisco City clinic to look for a doctor he was targeting. Well guess what? The doctor wasn't there. So then he rolled on over to the general hospital. Quotations Albert Alberta was there to help and he was failed. He was failed by dph. I hear the geese in the background. Must be Christmas time. He was failed by dph. He was failed by the hospital. He was failed by the management. My co worker asked for help anyway the union leaders are calling for a security review and demand investigation, blah blah blah. And he goes on about you know, social workers and public health and, and all that. Well the. I hate that for the deed and dedicate his life to especially in the AIDS ward. You think a lot of those people probably are going to die and it's a horrible way to go but goes back to I know what you're thinking because I'm thinking it to these cities that want to replace the cops and send in social workers to handle people like this. It's not going to work out.
Cindy Overton
No more people. It's already been proven that it doesn't work out.
Woody Overton
More people, more people are gonna die.
Cindy Overton
Why would another city after one city proved it didn't work, begged for help.
Woody Overton
No Johnny said he'd jump off the bridge. Well not a side guys it's. Well if little Johnny told you he was going to jump off Mississippi Bridge, would you jump off Too Woody. You stupid little. Anyway, all right. Prayers for them. What you got? It's time for effed up professionals.
Cindy Overton
Okay. Now, I was a teacher.
Woody Overton
If you were before Real Life for.
Cindy Overton
Crime and do what before Real life for crime Enduring. Remember how stressed and doing VIP kids all at the same time.
Woody Overton
And a mother and a wife. And that's true. A human being. Breathe. Take showers. What else? You were a baby at one point.
Cindy Overton
I only. I only said that because you said. Okay, never mind. Well, I had candy. I had special snacks in my room late.
Woody Overton
But they weren't savory.
Cindy Overton
They actually were. It was my favorite cracklings. My Max bags of cracklings that I like. That you like to sneak away from me.
Woody Overton
No, no. I'm gonna lay that out hard for you right now because that's what they are. They're on the table. The bag is open. And I already know probably 40% of the bag is inedible anyway when you get it. And then so I would sit down in my chair and I will eat a. Every snack. But 99 of them are too hard as I knew they would be because the bag was left open. And I take them and. And put them in the trash. Actually, I left take. I take them and give them to the dog outside as. Honestly, you made a dog happy.
Cindy Overton
It's closed. I don't just like throw a bag.
Woody Overton
Down and leave it open and somebody else must let it unfold and magically unfolds. Becomes open.
Cindy Overton
Well, I had special candy, but it wasn't this. So. But I think I might go get some of this special candy after this show today. So an Indiana teacher mistakenly leaves her special candy in her classroom, and she now is in custody after students took a bite. An Indiana language arts high school teacher is in serious legal trouble after police allege she mistakenly left THC infused candies out in her classroom.
Woody Overton
Imagine you just. You smoke a big fat blunt before you went in school every day.
Cindy Overton
That's what I'm saying. Like, who. Why do you have these even at school?
Woody Overton
I mean, I'm just going to get high and pass my day teaching the kids.
Cindy Overton
Yeah, I'm just going to have my little special candy out there. So apparently students ate believing the kid the sweets to be regular sweets. Well, they do have a distinct flavor.

I've watched Cindy deal with this herself. You you hear people say your health starts in your gut, but for women it really starts with their hormones.

Have mood every night before I go to bed so I know what those candies taste like. On November 15, 2025, Steuben County Law Enforcement announced the arrest of 49 year old Deborah McGillum and the teacher at Angola High School in northern Indiana was had mistakenly left and left the candies on her desk and two students unknowingly consumed the THC edibles during their last class period on November 13th. The students experienced various symptoms of THC intoxication, but otherwise they had no adverse health effects. Investigators say McGillum accidentally left the special candy out in the open and that she brought it into the school. According to reports, investigators found additional food items suspected to contain THC in her possession. During questioning at the sheriff's office, authorities observed indications that McGillan may have driven a vehicle while impaired, triggering a separate charge. She's going in for having thc. Then she goes in high. While the legal process unfolds, some students have voiced support for McGillum, describing her as a caring teacher. One senior reportedly posted on social media, she was the best teacher in that school by far. People make mistakes just like we all do. The student added, she doesn't deserve all the hate and disrespect. She's a human being. People make mistakes just like we all do. Yeah, she made a pretty big one. But it could be worse always. There are so many drugs and other things going around that school. This should be the least of your guys worries. For all you guys know your kids could be at school doing the same thing and you have no idea. Be better. Be smarter. This is a student saying that. The district, however, issued a statement acknowledging the incident and confirming an internal investigation is underway and there would be appropriate disciplinary in action taken with the district policy and applicable law.
Woody Overton
Pretty sure that goes without saying. Because you can't bring your highness to school teaching kids. It's not allowed.
Cindy Overton
So she was booked for multiple charges. Felony neglect of a dependent, felony possession of a controlled substance on school property and operating a vehicle while intoxicated. And her bomb was set at 6,500. She remains in custody.
Woody Overton
There you have it. That's all there is to say about the teacher. Getting high on our own supply and then giving some to the kids. Now let's go. It's time for Worldwide crime. Don't know if this one will make you cry or not. We're going to Tokyo. What are some things you think you would find in a adult. In a what? They're called adult entertainment business.
Cindy Overton
Do you really want me to list them?
Woody Overton
No. Okay, but what are some of the things you don't think you would find?
Cindy Overton
I can't.
Woody Overton
All right, so. Well, an employee at this business, and this business is an adult entertainment business in Tokyo, Sumeda Ward. He called the Tokyo police around 9pm Saturday because he was cleaning out the refrigerator in the office and he found what looked like a child's head. No response.
Cindy Overton
I'm trying to.
Woody Overton
So police initially investigating the case as the abandonment and damaging of body said they located the decapitated head, a plastic bag in the freezer. As they searched the premises.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
They also.
Woody Overton
Found arms and legs placed underneath the head in a food container. This is a baby. The baby is estimated to be less than one year old.
Cindy Overton
I mean, I know you're asking for a response because we're obviously on Nobody could see us. But I don't know what to say.
Woody Overton
Well, you know what you could say? That is the shortest story I've ever done. That's all I have.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
What?
Woody Overton
That's it. They're investigating it. Okay, right, so we'll back it up with this one. Same side of the world. It's time for worldwide crime. Foreign. World, different country. And I want to tell you about a lady from China. China, Chinese. All right. And she's been arrested for stealing 30kg of leftover fish bones at a Japanese wet market. And you know she did. I mean, what do you do? That's what, two and a half pounds per. I mean it's like 70 something pounds of fish bones. That's the. Even though they like, they use everything. And if you're still in the leftover bones, what are you gonna do with them?
Cindy Overton
Broth, Baked stock.
Woody Overton
Well, I said cheerful and friendly elderly boss of Cheap eatery is accused of being a serial leftover thief. And she got arrested. So the 66 year old Chinese restaurant owner, so I told you it was China's in Japan has been arrested for stealing the 30 kg of fish bone waste bull worth a whopping 210 yen or otherwise better known to us Americans as 1.$4.
Cindy Overton
And she stole that.
Woody Overton
Stole that. On November 28th, the Japanese police charged the woman on suspicion of theft and trespass for a $40 $.4. Yep. On November 28, Japanese police charged the woman on suspicion of theft and trespass while publishing the rest footage showing her mask wearing face and name. Now, the woman's name, her surname is Wu and she's been accused of breaking into Tosu Market seafood wholesaler building late at night on November 21, instilling tuna loins and bones. And y', all, that's the people don't eat. According to the Tokyo police surveillance camera catcher, Woo arriving on her bicycle at the collection point of a company that buys fish bones. She is accused. This is up. She's accused of placing the loins and bones in the basket, her bicycle and in a styrofoam container. Well, why would you do that? You might ask, are you going to feed your cat or something? Well, Woo. Woo was spotted allegedly stealing again on November 22 and was arrested after the market saw her appear for a third time on November 26. Woo and her husband run a Chinese restaurant that serves sashimi and Chinese cuisine that contains seafood and their eatery is about 1.5 km away from the market. She was reported to have frequently visited the market to Source supplies and knew where the shop stored fish bones leftovers. The tuna loins and bones she stole were collected to be processed into feed for farm fish. That's what the business was going to do with them.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
Whoa.
Woody Overton
Confessed to the police that she thought the fish would still be edible if she cooked it. Listen to she. She made them into meatballs and hate themselves.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
Right?
Woody Overton
And ate them herself. But listen, this gets better. She also grilled some to serve to her customers. Yes, indeed. Local residents told Fuji News Network that Woof restaurant was popular and had been featured in magazines. Wow. It is also famous for big portions, cheap prices, cheerful and friendly personality. This case has sparked a heated discussion in Japan and China. If it's only sold at 210 per 30kg she should just ask the company nicely to buy it. One observer said It's a waste that is not managed well enough to be edible. Stealing is a problem, but feeding it to other people, that's a bigger problem, said another person. A third Japanese online observer commented on the illegal behavior of the expats. It is understandable to commit such a crime if she is a new overseas graduate who just entered a company. But she is settled owner of a restaurant.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
She should be deported, right?
Cindy Overton
Yeah.
Woody Overton
It is not known how long Wu has been living in Japan. She could lose her rescue status if she is convicted. Meanwhile, another person asked if it was necessary to publish her face and name for such a petty crime.
Cindy Overton
Absolutely.
Woody Overton
It is right. Fed you some rotten meatballs in China. Online observers also disapproved of theft. But at the same time they said they were not surprised. Quotations. I saw many people from her generation collecting abandoned stuff on the streets. They might have grown up in a poor environment and find it a pity to throw away stuff that they think could still be utilized. Well, you know what that we have plenty.
Cindy Overton
We know our. We have relatives from the Depression. I know some of my grandparents save a little full of like aluminum foil.
Woody Overton
How many hundreds of of paint cans from the last 70 years of my dad's life have a quarter inch of dried cement paint in them out there in the barn and throw away anything? No, but they're not breaking into a business and stealing.
Cindy Overton
It's completely different.
Woody Overton
Tuna loins and fish bones.
Cindy Overton
Completely.
Woody Overton
And then you're grinding them up and making meatballs out of them and selling them.
Cindy Overton
Yeah, to make money.
Woody Overton
And award winning restaurant. The old joke. The guy walks back at a Chinese restaurant. The guys are smoking cigarettes and said, hey, you see my missing dog? He said, yeah, yeah. Hi. Brown furry hair and three leg. He said, yeah, that's him. He said, nope, never seen him.
Cindy Overton
He's digging in his teeth.
Woody Overton
Never have, never will. Well, I'm making fun of Asian people. I'm just making fun.
Cindy Overton
They're just having fun. But what blew, what startled me, honestly, when I was speechless when you asked me the question of what you wouldn't have, like, in an, in an adult store.
Woody Overton
I need you to bring back the sex. You always do.
Cindy Overton
No, I was. I literally, when you said, what would you not have? I literally thought a baby. And so when you said they found the baby's head and body, like, I.
Woody Overton
Was like, you know, I don't think they would have fake meatballs. Well, it's not fake meatballs because it.
Cindy Overton
Is it fake meat.
Woody Overton
It stolen meat smell like tuna. All right, give us something good before we get out of this hood.
Cindy Overton
Oh, he's. Are you gonna wrap the mic today?
Woody Overton
Damn, I made it right?
Cindy Overton
I got pretzels. You want some homemade pretzels?
Woody Overton
I used to love your homemade pretzels. I don't think I know if I'm feeling that right now. Ok, you can make some homemade bread.

Cindy Overton
Often I don't.
Woody Overton
All right, so I have some high.
Cindy Overton
School football players from Rhode island and they were horrible to a special needs student.
Woody Overton
Me, I would rub my hand again. Yeah, don't pick on kids in front of me.
Cindy Overton
So Rhode Island High School has canceled the remainder of its football season after a special needs student was whipped by players in the locker room.
Woody Overton
Take them motherfuckers out and whip them.
Cindy Overton
Two 16 year old players from Roger High School are now facing assault charges on a victim described by Newport Police as having severe impairments. Names of the accused have not been publicized by police because they are juveniles and police say the investigation remains ongoing. But the reported incident was said to be caught on film. According to a letter to the families from Newport Superintendent Colleen Burns Germain. That viral video shows other players not intervening or bringing this matter to the attention of an adult, Jermaine explained. This is a serious matter and there is no gray area when it comes to behavior like this, she continued. Those involved will face appropriate disciplinary actions in accordance with our district policies. Our athletes need to understand as leaders, as athletes and as representatives of our community that this behavior will never be tolerated at Newport Public Schools. Disturbing video published on Instagram shows a seated student being whipped with a strap or belt by a football player. Another portion of the video shows someone on their knees apologizing to his antagonist. I'm so sorry, the kneeling student said before being whipped across the feet face with what appeared to be a rubber stretching band. The attack is said to have taken place on Thursday in the exclusive Rhode island enclave. One of the students is set to be arraigned on Friday and the Newport Police Department emphasized that bullying will not be tolerated or condoned in our community. They added such acts will be investigated to the fullest extent.
Woody Overton
Fuck them. Yeah.
Cindy Overton
Someone says that was my little brother whose special needs in that video. We need a lawyer and et cetera. So whatever you can do, donate please. So thank you. And it just. Yeah. Disgusting. Yeah.
Woody Overton
All right, let me do something never done before on true crime time. 4 All right, you ready? The I am going to take you to tell you about what has happened on December 12th in years past about that. So in 1868 they had some vingilantes yank train robbers from jail and hang them.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
Right.
Woody Overton
An angry group of vigilantes yanked the brothers Frank William and Simeon Reno from the Indiana jail cell and hang them. And after they shot a guard, we'll go to 1913 Mona Lisa. What's that, David? Anyway, the stolen Mona Lisa was recovered in Florence two years after it was stolen from the Louvre museum.
Ad Voice / Promo Announcer
They.
Woody Overton
They got a real problem there in Paris with getting stolen Leonardo da Vinci smashed piece. The Mona Lisa was recovered inside Italian waiters. Vincenzo. Whatever department. All right. 1937 USS Penne is sunk by the Japanese. And that's. That is four years before we got into war. During the battle for Nankang, the Sino Japanese War, the US gunboat Panay is attacked and sunk by Japanese warplanes in Chinese waters. 1989. You remember this? Real estate mogul Leona Hemsley sentenced to prison. Leonie Hemsley, nicknamed the Queen of Mean by the press, received a four year prison sentence and 750 hours community service and a 7.1 million dollar text fine. 1997, 14 year old is indicted for school cheating. 14 year old because I don't say him is indicted as an adult on three counts of murder and five counts of attempted murder for shooting of his classmates. And I'll end it with this one. It's time for worldwide crime. On December 12, the Nanjing Massacre or the Rape of Nanjing, formerly romanized as Nanking, was the mass rape and murder of Chinese civilians, non combatants and prisoners of war by the Imperial Japanese army in Nanjing was the capital of the Republic of China. It took place immediately after the Battle of Nanking and the retreat of the National Revolutionary army during the second Sino Japanese War. So y', all. It started and then it lasted for six weeks.
Cindy Overton
Weeks.
Woody Overton
That and wow, that's crazy. And of course is mass murder, wartime rape, looting and torching, torture and arson. Check this out. 100,000 to 200,000 civilians and prisoners of war. And some newer estimates say it's more. According to the International Military Tribunal for the Far East. Other estimates range from 40,000 to over 340,000 people were raped and murdered. 20,000 women and children raped. 30,000 plus POWs illegally executed. 20,000 falsely accused male civilians executed as soldiers. 12,000 to 60,000 civilians murdered inside the city walls. 30,000 civilians murdered in the surrounding countryside. And the bad dudes in this case were dudes and dudettes were the Imperial Japanese army and Prince Yusukawa Osaka who guess what? He got granted immunity. So the motive was anti Chinese racism and Japanese ultraism and they saying a breakdown in Japanese military discipline. So that's a lot of people.
Cindy Overton
That's a lot.
Woody Overton
Rape and murder and that's a long period of time.
Cindy Overton
Yes, it is. And a lot of people.
Woody Overton
And a lot, lot of people. Probably the most I've ever heard of. I mean, other than the 6 million Hitler tried to exterminate. But they weren't doing the raping of the children and. And people and stuff like that.

Episode Title: Holiday Cheer, School Bullying Horror & December 12th Crime Stories
This episode blends the festive vibes of December with chilling real crime updates from around the world. Woody and Cindy Overton, with their signature dynamic (sometimes darkly funny, always real), serve up a relay of recent stories: a police shootout in Texas, the tragic murder of a San Francisco social worker, a school scandal involving THC candies, international oddities in Japan and China, and historical crime anniversaries. The show also confronts difficult topics like school bullying and the horrors of the Nanjing Massacre, while keeping the conversation candid and (in spots) light-heartedly domestic.
