Well over 50% probably. I hadn't checked today. I think it's like closer to 60%. But we need to get Ms. Barbara to the $10,000 mark so she can hire the evidence room to reconstruct the crime scene and hopefully we can get the murder charge out of that. So. And don't ever give up just for Ms. Barbara Blunt. And so when we read you these cold cases and been solved after 20 and 40 years, well, you know what, some of them take that long and and a lot of them never get solved. But if these don't get solved, it won't be because we don't know what happened or it's just because we're not beyond a reasonable doubt. And I understand that normal people don't understand that but it is what it is and I'm not going to do anything to screw up the investigation and what you would hope other people wouldn't also. But some people are just ignorant. But that being said, let's get down to some true crime time for the night. Now I don't know who you pulled for in the super bowl and I don't know who won because I'm recording this early. But did they taught us back in academy a long time ago that the number one domestic violence day of the year by like four times the amount of calls is Super Bowl Sunday. Imagine that. I guess people men are pissed off it's in last game of the year. Maybe the women are getting in front of the tv. I don't know. No excuse for it. Just throwing that fun fact out there. And hopefully, hopefully none of y' all were victims of that right. All right, so let's get down to True Crime Time 4, and we're going to start. You know, the. I remember. You know, of course, I used to travel a lot before Lyft and Uber and all that came around. And all you had were taxes, yellow taxis and all the big cities. And then Uber came out and then Lyft came out. I don't know who else they have now. And that's all I would use in the traveling. Very convenient. Great thing. Good for the people making the money on the side, hustling and all that. And. But as the business grows, so do the problems, just like any other business. And I'm going to take you out to Tampa, Florida. In Tampa, Florida, a Lyft driver was arrested after choking and threatening to kill the victim in his back seat. And this, according to Hillsborough County Sheriff's office. Deputies began investigation back on October 8th of 2025 after a woman reported being victimized after being picked up by her Lyft driver. And, you know, there was a lot of that in the beginning scams and people getting picked up by lifts that weren't theirs. And know now they. Y' all like they have lights and stuff on the car and you can double check it on your phone, make sure it's the right car and everything you get into, but it's still going to have some crazies, right? So while taking the woman to her destination, the drive driver, W. Mina Vasquez, who's 27, pulled the vehicle into a grassy area and placed in a park. And then he climbs into the back seat. Well, one, he was in the back seat. Min Mina Vasquez battered the victim by choking her and threatening to kill her. Well, if it ever have she females, you got fight, flight or freeze, right? Always try to put the human face on yourself, like, all right, kids. Da d da I won't tell. Just leave me alone or whatever. All the way to the last result of and pissing on yourself. But this victim was able to convince Mina Vasquez to stop, which when he did, she used that, you know, pleading, and he stops. And you know what she did? She got out of the car. And they said this victim simply wanted to get home safely. And instead she was met with violence and fear for her life. This kind of predatory behavior will not be ignored. According to Sheriff Chad Chronister. I commend the victim for coming forward. Her courage may have stopped the suspect from harming someone else. Predators who target innocent people have no place in our community. All right, well, I Would criminally. I'm already thinking this guy, this, you know, you don't just stop. This one female's not so attractive or such your type or whatever that you just pull over in a grassy area and try to rape her, Right? So during the investigation, Lyft records revealed two prior complaints of inappropriate conduct involving Mina Vasquez during previous lift services. I don't know who's running their internal affairs, but, you know, if you get a complaint on that, don't you think you would take it serious? But those incidents are now also under investigation, according to the sheriff's office. And Mina Vasquez was arrested on January 29 and charged with battery by strangulation and false false imprisonment. And Lyft released the following statement. The behavior described is appalling and will not be tolerated. You think the driver was removed from the lift platform and we attempted to contact the rider to offer our support and remain available. We have been in contact with law enforcement. Stand ready to assist their investigation. Lift space parking. Lift space parking spot lift spokesperson. So there you have it. I know a lot of people use them every day and they're way cheaper, way more convenient than taxis. And just be careful when, I mean, you know, if you get that little spidey sense going off in your head that something's not right, listen to it. That's whoever, whatever deity you pray to these angels trying to keep you alive. So it's time for worldwide crime. All right, we're gonna go across the pond to East Sussex, right? And a 17 year old boy was raped after being approached at a bus stop in East Sussex. And this court of police. The teenager was approached by a man at a bus stop near Asada and Battle Road, St Leonard's at about 2330 GMT on Friday, y'. All. 2330 would be 11.30pm, it said. It was reported the suspect and the teenager then walked together in the direction of Leedy in Bohemia Road. And the boy was then raped at an address. Of course, you know, shout out to London and or England and all them. They, you know, make way more use of CCTV than we do. But the police have released a CCTV image of the man. They're seeking a connection with the reported rape. Officers say the suspect described as a white man, aged about 40 years old, bald, with a goatee and wearing glasses. Detective Inspector Barry Chandler said a thorough investigation is underway with officers continuing to carry out extensive inquiries to establish any further information and potential witnesses. If you recognize this man or were in the vicinity of Asada in Battle Road or Leedy in Bohemia Road on the night of 30th of January and have any information to assist this investigation, please report it to us. We recognize concern this report may cause and would like to assure the community the public safety is our top priority. And Chandler said officers will be patrolling the area and there will continue to be an increased police presence throughout the investigation. That's according to the BBC. Y' all think about that. You know, it's. You don't hear about almost adult young men being raped that often, right? Especially by stranger danger. So there's a little, that one's a little bit different for you, right?

All right.

I know y' all probably get to hear tired of hearing me talk about the ultimate penalty, the death penalty in some cases just deserve it, right? Especially if you can prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. DNA or whatever, which they've been executing people for probably over well over 100 years without DNA. But going to Florida in Governor Ron DeSantis signed a death warrant on January 29th ordering the execution of the man convicted in the January 18th, 1991 murder of four Pierce Police Officer Danny Parrish. Now retired Fort Pierce Police Sergeant Dennis McWilliams said he was relieved when he learned that DeSantis signed the warrant. He said it's been 35 years coming in, 35 years too long for me, Mertha, and for the state, for the sheriff's office, for the city of Fort Pierce, for everybody who is around, for his family, for everybody who is in the community during that time. It was an awful tragedy and senseless killing. So let me tell you about it. So this guy, Billy Leon curse, who was 18 at the time, he was pulled over for driving the wrong way on a one way street and he, when he got Paris is the one that stopped him, the victim. And evidently they got into a struggle and he was able to get Parish's service weapon from him and he started firing. Parrish was the fourth Fort Pierce officer killed in the line of duty and Curse was convicted in October of 1991 a first degree murder and robbery with a firearm and was sentenced to death in March of 1997. In 2021, Fort Pierce City Commissioners approved an initiative allowing a life size bronze sculpture and parishes likeness be installed at the main police station. The sculpture is also generic representation of a Fort Pierce officer, I guess honest, honoring all four that have been killed in the line of duty. But Parish's wife, Mertha Busman says she plans to attend Curses execution and they have a picture of her. Y' all holding up while holding up the photograph of when they got married. The you know, 33 years on death row. He shot Parish 13 times, y'. All. You know why he's shooting 14? Because that's all that weapon hell was 13. And then he Paris was 29 years all old and all he did was stop this guy from driving the wrong way down a one way street, right? So I don't know, rest in peace for him and hella jail on that dude. It's time for worldwide crime. You know, when I talk about the death penalty and it's almost always about cases in the United States of America. Let me bring you across the seas to probably our biggest competitor in the world now to China. The you think you know. Yes. And we know for a fact there have been some people that were wrongfully executed. And since DNA came out, they've proven that. And I get that that the I can pretty sure in China they don't give a right. And I'm gonna tell you about this story. Authorities in China have carried out the executions of 11 people. Now, they weren't killing police officers and, and raping and torturing babies and old ladies and serial killers and all this. These 11 people were convicted in a sprawling criminal case that's tied to online scams, illegal gambling, gambling rings and multiple killings. Now, according to the Associated Press, the ruling was handed down on January 29th and came from the winds out City Intermediate Intermediate People's Court, which said the group was responsible for the deaths of 14 Chinese citizens while also operating fraud embedding networks that moved more than $1 billion. The Corps identified two members of the Ming family, Mingo Ping and Ming Zheng, as the leaders of the operation. Several others, including Zhu Wing Chun and Wuhanming and Lao Jinjiang, were described as key organizers who helped manage the scam infrastructure and gambling activity. Now, the death sentences were handed down in September of 2025. Of course, the defendants later appealed, but the court said those challenges were rejected back in November. The case stretches beyond one city and according to officials, the group was detained in late 2023 during a broader push targeting cross border scam operations near China's frontier with Miramar.

That means sleeping when I can, eating decent, staying active and paying attention when something feels off. And for a lot of people, especially women, feeling tired or foggy at the start of the year gets written off as stress or burnout when low iron can actually be part of the problem. Iron deficiency affects one in three adults, and the symptoms don't always jump out at you. It can show up as constant fatigue, even when you're sleeping enough, brain fog or trouble concentrating, frequent headaches, irritability or brittle nails and hair breakage. When iron levels are low, your body has to work harder to deliver oxygen, and that can impact your energy, focus.

Mood and physical performance.

An iron deficiency can exist long before anything turns into anemia, which means you can feel it well before it shows up on paper. That's why I recommend Citrol from Pharman Nutra. Sideroll is a premium iron supplement powered by the patented Sucrosomia technology. This technology helps your body absorb iron three to four times more effectively than standard iron supplements without the common stomach issues people complain about, like nausea and constipation. It's clinically proven to be comparable to IV iron, and it's made with just two main ingredients, 30 milligrams of sucrosomil iron and vitamin C in a convenient once a day capsule. You can take any time with or without food. Citrol is backed by 20 years of research, 150 plus clinical studies, and is trusted by more than 2 million people worldwide. It's the number one supplement brand in Italy and is used in over 90 countries. If you're starting the year and you're still feeling tired or foggy despite doing the right things, you're not alone. Then this might be the support your body needs. Head to farmingutra-us.com and use code RLRC for 10% off your first order of Citrol. That's P H A R M A N U T R A-US.com promo code RLRC. A well built wardrobe isn't about chasing trends. It's about having pieces that work together, feel good to wear and actually hold up over time. That's what Quince does best. Premium materials, thoughtful design and everyday staples that feel easy to rely on even as the weather starts to shift. Quince has all the everyday essentials I love with quality that lasts organic cotton sweaters, polos that work for just about any occasion, lighter jackets that keep you warm without feeling bulky. Then the list really does go on. Everything is designed to handle daily wear.

And still look good season after season. One of the reasons Quince can do.

C
This is because they work directly with the top factories and they cut out the middleman. That means you're not paying for brand markups, just well made clothing at a price that actually makes sense. And they only partner with factories that meet rigorous standards for craftsmanship and ethical production. I'll be honest, I normally wouldn't spend.

See terms. And they said that region has become known for so called scam parks which are large compounds where teams operate phone and online fraud schemes targeting victims on a worldwide scale. That's when they call you and say, oh yeah, you've won a billion dollars, but we just need you to send us $1300. Get the legal paperwork out of the way, that kind of shit. And if you do a thousand people a day and you get one, then you make a thousand bucks, Right? So they said these operations often rely on a mix of people who are recruited, coerced or trafficked to carry out fake investment pitches, romance scams and illegal gambling platforms in a practice sometimes known as pig butchering. They said the networks can generate massive profits which while even financial damage that spreads across multiple countries. The Chinese authorities have increased pressure on neighboring governments in Southeast Asia, including Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos to dismantle these setups. The crackdown has involved arrests, extraditions and coordinated sweeps across border areas. Well, that tells me they're going into these other countries and grabbing whoever they want. In his statement, the window court said that the crimes involved extremely, extremely serious consequences and significant financial harm and that the punishment was consistent with the sentences already issued. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they don't get 35 years on death row in China. So there you have it. Consider yourself lucky if you're on death row in the United States. In the states that have it. All right, we're gonna go back to Florida and these stories we do about these squatters taking over houses and getting titles to the houses that they don't own. I mean in, you know, one of them we did, they were in the middle of like a hundred thousand dollars worth of improvement. And you reach a certain point, the law can't touch you because we've never had this problem before. Right now these states will be passing laws. But listen to the story, it's crazy. So Charlotte Brown thought she was taking the first step toward financial stability when she listed her Florida home for sale. Instead, she said a stranger moved in and hadn't paid a dime in more than a year. Now Brown bought her Winter haven residence in 2021. It was a quiet lot and sat against a stretch of forest, and it felt like the perfect place for her family. But when her fiance developed serious health issues, everything changed. She became his full time caregiver and her bills piled up. And by 2023, the couple decided selling the property was their beth best path for right God bless them, she said. I just had the opportunity to sell and so that was definitely a plus, especially with the increase in the market. But before the sale could go through, Brown says a man she never met moved into the house. She describes him as a squatter and says he has stayed rent free ever since. I'm pretty sure if that happened to me and the cops couldn't get them out, the little murder by you, justice would come that some bitch would just disappear. But after Brown listed her home, she says she quickly found a buyer, a California real estate agent named Obed Torres. And according to Brown, the company handling the sale asked her for the house keys so Taurus could have the carpets clean before moving in. And that's when Sugar turned the ship. Brown says Taurus switched title companies multiple times and the sale never closed. But still, in the spring of 2024, he moved into the house right Tor is supposed to be handling it scam. She Ms. Brown said it's terrible, it's deceitful, it's hurtful. Ms. Brown, you still trying to do the right thing and I, I commend you for that. But at certain point, enough is enough, they said. Florida tops the nation and reported fraud losses, with residents losing an estimated $866 million just in 2024, y'. All. And that's according to the Federal Trade Commission. Real estate scams have been part of the increase. Now, Brown filed a report with the sheriff's office and submitted two complaints for an unlawful detainer in an attempt to remove Torres. But she acknowledges she didn't fully understand the legal process and missed some of the hearings and set these are some of the setbacks that style her case. In a letter to the judge, Torres insisted he acted in good faith and was still trying to buy the property. In another, he argued Brown had abandoned the home and said the situation was calling him arrest and uncertainty. This dude's so full of shit, right? And notice he's writing letters to the judge. He ain't showing up in court. So Florida, as we know, everybody's moving to Florida, first of all for tax reasons and other reasons. But they said Florida titan its eviction rules in 2023 by extending notice periods and clarifying when landlords can file formal evictions. But none of those protections apply here. Brown never rented the home to Torres and there was no lease and no agreement and no sale. That's why she couldn't use the standard eviction process and instead had to pursue unlawful detainer actions, which is a sep a separate legal tool for getting somebody else that out of your house that doesn't have your permission to be there. Now at one point, Torres told the court he planned to move out, maybe not. But by April 2025 he was asking for more time due to health issues. You've been living there for a year rent free. So the Ms. Brown has a little hope now. A reporter named Jeff deal with WFTV 9. He went to the house twice and first in September and then again this month and he wants to speak with Torres. He knocks on the doors. He could hear the dogs barking inside and he left messages on the ring doorbell. But guess what? No one answered. And if I'd been living there rent free for a year, I wouldn't answer it either. The neighbors told the TV station that they've seen Torres and his family around the now meanwhile, Brown's financial situation has only gotten worse and she says she couldn't keep up with both her rent and her mortgage payments. And now her lender is foreclosing on the Property all because Mr. Torres is an a scam artist. An attorney, Mark Lippman, who specializes in landlord and tenant law and HOA issues and real estate disputes. He he is now helping Ms. Brown at no charge, which we commend you sir, he says. Quotations his answer was garbage. The fact that he said she had abandoned the property is incorrect. Now one thing working in Brown's favor is Florida's newly strengthened anti squatting law. And under the legislation, law enforcement can intervene more quickly and treat an illegal occupant as a criminal trespasser, not a tenant. And Lippman the attorney, believes that the tougher statue could help Brown finally argue that Torres is living in the home without permission and she can reclaim the property so that like you need to know this but here comes the public service announcements announcements to avoid this kind of nightmare, experts stress a few key points. Never hand over your keys before sale officially closes and make sure you attend every required court hearing. Missing one could delay your case or even set it back entirely. And keep thorough documentation of area interaction during a home Sale and verify all title transfers through reputable companies. So isn't that stupid? Let me tell you Swim. Someone who isn't me, we. A lot of times we had to deal with areas like this that really were a gray matter. And you knew that like legally you can only do so much as a cop. But you know the. If I got a hold of something like this and went once and there was nobody there and I'm around patrolling one day I'm in the area, I'm gonna stop by there every single time. And sooner or later I may not be able to say the law says you have to get out. But swim being the law, have a come to Jesus meeting with this. And they were going to get out one way or another. I just. I hate a thief. I don't understand it. It's fucking ludicrous. Sometimes the law protects too much. It's time for effed up professional. All right. Now I hate nothing worse than a dirty cop. And this one is just out the box. So. The city of Sanger has settled a lawsuit with a victim of a former police officer who repeatedly raped and sexually assaulted women, plural, while on duty. And in confirming the 5.25 million settlement with the B, which is local paper, y', all, on Friday, the city said it is the next step in ensuring justice in the case against J.D. torrance, who received five life sentences September after being convicted for a series of sexual assaults. They say that now y', all, it's always rape to me. All right. Sexual assault is rape. The series of rapes he committed which began back in 2016. And they said the city acted swiftly to invite the sheriff's department and FBI to independently investigate these allegations. And once the criminal matter was completed with the conviction of ex officer Torrance, the city is now working to compensate the victims. And Torrance was also y' all convicted for assaulting or raping four other women. In one of the assaults he kidnapped a 21 year old who's walking to a store to buy groceries. Drove her outside of town. Now he's in his cop car in. In his uniform, drove her outside of town and sexually assaulted or raped her at an at an end of an isolated dead end road. And in another he raped the domestic violence victim in our home. He was there on a pretense of investigation. Right. Call 91 1. My husband beat me up and we get out there, it's okay baby. And I'm gonna rape you. That I just do. Really? Yeah. I mean he got life sentences, but he deserves a death penalty. So Nicholas Butch Wagner, who's the lawyer representing the victim in the settlement case, believes other women may have been assaulted. And he said, I think there's probably more victims out there that haven't come forward yet. And there is a ten year stat there. This, this. There should be no statute limitation on rape cases. My personal belief, it's like a murder should be out there forever. But there's a 10 year statute of limitation on sexual assault for civil cases, meaning they can't see. Right. Which can be filed regardless of any criminal complaint. He. He's already representing four other women who were victimized by this asshole Torrance, and he's going to be filing lawsuits for them this week. But the settlement in the first case, he said, is helpful in bringing closure for his client. It's been eight years that she's had to deal with this mentally, and the settlement allows her to move on without having to relive the events through further litigation. It also shows the city understands the gravity of the crimes committed by one of its employees and effect has had on its victims, and rightfully so. He says that the acknowledgment of the city of that helps a lot. I mean, y', all, I'm not about suing people either, but on cases like this, this dude was in his cop car in. Issued by the city, is in the uniform issued by the city. I'm sure there was some type of complaint against him. And they know that, right? When you go in and you dig in, you have to do depositions and whatever. And they get his personnel file. They had other complaints which were never followed up on because nobody wants to believe a cop's gonna do that. Right? And you don't just start out raping women. I'm sure he touched the butt or touched a boob or did whatever or, you know, whatever it may be. I'm just telling you, you don't start out by just raping. And somehow also, he passed. If they had the polygraph process and he passed their background process and everything else. So ultimately, yeah, they are. They're liable because he is their representative. And I hate that for those victims. And I bet you there's way more victims. I worked so many cases where the people ended up being serial rapists. And you talk to victims, they're like, no, I don't want my name brought up in it, right out of shame. Well, it happens.

It's time for effort of professionals. All right, we're gonna go back and and not throwing shade on security guards a lot of them or retired police officers and you know a lot of them are people who can't become police officers for whatever reason. And some of them show ultimately they show why they couldn't become a police officer because they do like this. So security guard who was up for termination again, your security guard. What do you have have to do to be terminated? But a security guard who was up for termination snapped and gunned down a co worker leading his performance evaluation at an aerospace and defense company in Maryland back on Wednesday. All right, so you're in for your performance valuation, you snap and you kill the person evaluating. If you weren't going to get fired before, you damn sure getting fired now. But Dylan Blake Chandler, who's 26 year old security worker shot and killed 37 year old Joseph Keith Amman at the Northrop Grooming facility. In ann or arndell county Late on Wednesday afternoon. Imam was another security worker at the facility and had pulled chandler aside to discuss his lackluster effort on the job. Like, come on, homie, tighten up, right? But court documents detained by wjz revealed that chandler was walking a fine line between being reprimanded or terminated in the meeting with a mind, y', all, believe me, I know the. The private side When I used to have to write these policy procedures. Security guards for these different businesses, I mean, they don't want to fire them. They'll do everything they can to keep them because they're paying a minimum wage and they need a body. They're getting paid probably 75 an hour form and they're paying him $8 an hour. And they. They need a warm body to walk around the facility. So a third security worker remained in the room during the tense meeting. And the unidentified hero leapt into action and disarmed chandler after he shot amman. This according to the arnold ardell county police department. They said, as you can imagine, it was very traumatizing for it happen to happen in the workplace. It was isolated and ended very quickly. And we are thankful for the intervention of the third security guard who was there to take him into custody. And man, I'm thankful for him too, because he would have got shot also. But a separate witness told police that they heard a loud bang and saw chandler brandishing a handgun. And while armand was slumped over, Suffering an apparent gunshot wound, Detectives said that shortly after chandler was taken into custody of the facility, he admitted to the police said he quotations snapped because he believed iman was not being held accountable for his own actions. Right. So mon slow a little shade on you and you just gonna snap and kill his ass because you think he's doing wrong with tea. Aman and chandler were both contracted employees Managed by the security firm allied universal. In quotations, they said, we are deeply saddened by the loss of our employee and our sympathies go out to his family and friends and we're fully supporting the authorities. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Usual young, right? Chandler was charged with first and secondary murder and he's being held without bond. So northrop grumman is the fifth largest contractor of u. S. Federal government work. And they specialize in designing and manufacturing and ever growing collection of systems for aeronautics, defense and interstellar missions. There you have it. Security guard murders boss. Because he told me like what he was doing anyway. Beast mode. All right, check the story out. Different for sure. So they said the Infamous unlicensed owner of a traveling animal show was busted in a bizarre roadside encounter and and on Long island last week. And the unlicensed owner was carrying two sloths and a kangaroo in his car. I'm pretty sure that makes for a smelly mess, But Larry Wallach, who's 67, whose exotic animal exhibition business is called Sloth Encounters, was issued a summons for violating Oyster Bay's dangerous animals ordinance after the federal, state and local authorities discovered the animals in his black Honda Odyssey outside a coffee shop Wednesday. And his coordinate officials and from the animal rights group Human Long Islands now, they said a strange scene unfolded as a town code enforcement officers were joined by state and federal agencies respond to a tip that Wallet, who is a repeat violator, y', all with a long trail of animal welfare citations who fled Long island to Florida. But he was back in the area once again moving exotic animals through Nassau county despite her being banned from doing so. That said, it is illegal to transport such exotic animals over state lines in New York, where it is also illegal to own them in most parts, including Long Island, Suffolk county, in most of Nassau county, such as Oyster Bay. Now, Wallach's USDA license was canceled, yet he continues to unlawfully exhibit wild animals in violation of local and federal laws. And this according to John D. Leonardo, who's the executive director of Human Long island now. Although Leonardo said he is happy that Wallach recited, he believes more needs to be done by authorities in order to fully shut down the business of horrors. He's quotations. He says federal authorities must act now, cite him, confiscate the animals and place them in reputable sanctuaries. Well, Wallach's long record of animal abuse and misconduct includes 60 animal welfare violations, a guilty plea for trafficking dangerous animals, lying to federal inspectors, being held in contempt of court and having his Long island operation shut down by a state judge. And this accords enforcement records and court filings. So his federal license exhibit animals was voided by the U.S. department of Agriculture back in June of 2024, making his own in exotic animals and any public display of them after that date. Unlawful? Well, I'm pretty sure they don't have a lot of funding for the animal police for this. But they said despite the revocation, Wallach continued illegally hauling animals to private parties and pop up events across state lines, including in Florida, where animal welfare advocates said he resurfaced after fleeing Long island following the legal action against his business. So that it goes on. Talk about humane. Long island has documented multiple instances in which Wallach was accused of hiding animals from inspectors, misleading federal authorities about their whereabouts and continuing exhibitions after being ordered stop. I don't know. They said sloths and kangaroos are considered especially vulnerable in cold climates such as it was in January in Long Island. There you have it. So. And. And a federal investigation into Wallach is still underway. I don't know. Y' all the different crazy for sure. Takes all kinds to make the world go around. How much money do you get for bringing a kangaroo into sloths to a birthday party? I don't know. Well, people gotta go from point A to point B, right? Whether you use trains, planes or automobiles. And invariably the more people, the more happens. And no pun intended in this, but we're go. They would tell you about a Philippine Airlines and they say they may want to invest in a certified plumber to fly with the rest of his crew because of a recent bathroom accident called attendance with their pants down. Now, they have video of this. I'll try to play it in a second. But they said the horrifying video has come out from a recent 15 hour flight from Los Angeles to the Philippines. And it shows crew members manually removing human waste from the toilet and putting it in the sink after all 11 onboard toilets failed in mid flight. UK. It's a big ass airplane and you got shit everywhere evidently, right? They said watch the video at your own risk. A worker wearing gloves and a thin surgical mask repeatedly dips what looks like a bucket into the overflowing toilet and removes waste which is then drained down the sink. Now, they said it's unclear how long the worker had to repeat this action. You know what? Fuck that. You're not paying me enough to scoop somebody else's shit out and in midair. But this failure, this overflowing shit show. This failure reportedly occurred six hours from the nearest diversion airport in Guam. But the flight's captain refused an emergency diversion and the aircraft landed at the Noi Aquino International Airport and Manila on time. Right. Neither the sleep, rain, sleep, snow, whatever the we getting to the Philippines on time. But they said the process apparently occurred behind closed doors after a supervisor demanded attendance. Clean the bathroom. I'd be like you, here's my hat or my badge or whatever so. Passengers reportedly didn't file formal complaints, though the crew complained to the Philippine Airlines Union, which has criticized the handling of the situation. And you thought your work day was shitty, right? Well, this case their work day.

I'm gonna try to play the audio for this video. If they don't say Anything if you can't hear it, I'll try to narrate it. But it's got an employee starting out in their airline uniform. I guess it's stewardess, whatever, with a mask on and some little blue rubber gloves with a bucket. All right. The ploy is literally, it ain't a big bucket, y'. All.

And they're dipping in the sink and it's barely draining out. He's having to stand there in between dips that I would be like, you don't pay me enough. I'm done. We're through. Peace out. Right? Reminds me of working on the cell blocks when the guys would themselves or they would gas officers. When they throw the. In the pistol on them, they. They save it up in their cell. But a lot of times inmates would just passive aggressively cover themselves in and then you had to go in there and get them. Right. But there's everywhere they. And I never had to clean any of it up. Even on the. The most secured tears because they had you. I mean you had trustees that were assigned to keep the hallways clean. Clean.

I'm not doing that. The. I mean camp, that's a classic example of you can't pay me enough. I'm done. So with that being said, I'm Woody Overton, y' all sending. I will be back behind the microphone together real soon. We're starting a new story a week from this. The Saturday. Oh my God. It's a humdinger. And again, totally opposite from Bradley and Austin because in this case it's. It's not a who done it. It's. It's a. It's a up case like Haley was up in, you know, be bringing that to you because there's so many good families that out there hurting that just really want their stories told. And. And I'm going to take up that torch and continue to carry it. And who knows we get something done out of them. They won't be full fledged fights. Some of them may be. I don't know. I mean, I mean I get 10 a day. Right. And the. My friend Kimberly Ladano started a new kind of a Justice 4 thing. And she's trained in certain aspects of. I'm have her own one day and I'm gonna start sending all these cases that come to me to her and hopefully she can give these families some closure that I just don't have the time to do right. And, you know, you take on these cases and they take on a life of their own, which is to be expected. You know, like Bradley and Austin certainly isn't my first rodeo between my law enforcement career and defense consulting career and then the podcast. But, hey, happy birthday to real life, real crime, right? 2019, first week of February, we dropped our first episode. So 2019 all. 2019. 2020, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25. Now 26.

And I met so many wonderful people, have changed my life in so many great different ways. We've been through a lot of shitty battles, but that's, you know, part of it, right? And. And a lot of great things have happened. You know, some bad things that happen, and when those happen, we roll just like any day in your life, roll through the bad and. And keep your head up and move on. But while the awards we've won over the years and consistently being ranked and, you know, the live shows and. Hell, I. I don't even know what to say. And the. The people I've gained in my life over the years throughout this podcast, which started as a joke, right? But anyway, I'm Woody Overton. You host True crime. Time for February 9, 2026. I love y'.
