Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
Hello everybody and welcome to this episode of True Crime. Time for Wednesday, January 28, 2026. And I'm Woody Overton and I'm back in the saddle, rolling solo. And it's cold as a. Whatever euphemism you want to use, right? Hope y' all are staying warm and safe and your pipes didn't burst or haven't burst yet and I don't know, staying off icy roads and all that good stuff, keep those pets and babies warm and we're gonna all get through this together. Especially down here in South Louisiana. It's just unbelievable. And people, we're just not used to this, this kind of cold, right? And that's that. Now hashtag just for Bradley, just for AO, as always, please call in your tips. 313RLRC tip. And I'm going to continue to work the case. Give a little clarity about last weekend's episode. I guess, you know, I didn't make myself clear. I said I'm not going to be covering the case on the podcast every week, giving you a weekly show like the filler stuff with Lunabelle and stuff like that. That's not going to happen anymore because of a bunch of bullshit that that's happening behind the scenes with the people it shouldn't be happening from. But I'm going to continue to work this case and I am continuing to work and I'm getting, still getting tips every day. But for those of you who think I'm off the case, like this one dude, Brian Wallace. Yeah. Mr. Wallace, normally I don't call people out, but you, sir, an. And the. And I have all the information on you. But the. He took to, like, Vernon Parish's page saying, woody Overton's gone. If you know, you know, right? And Mr. Wallace, you should have fucking listened to the episode, buddy. I'm not off of it. And your involvement in the whole thing is sketchy at best. So the. Those of you who think I gave up, I didn't. I'm just not doing it the way I was doing it anymore. I will be doing podcasts, full episodes. When the arrest come and they're coming, and I will be giving updates or if I get a piece hold of a piece of information I need help with from the public, then I'll be putting that out there. So I'm not ever going to get off of it. Hashtag just for Bradley. Hashtag just for ao. It's about getting justice, people. About getting justice for the family members and in Bradley's case, bringing Bradley home for his son Oliver. All right, enough said about that on this day, because it's true crime time for January 28th. On this day in 2018, Pedro Sanchez Laporte, along with four other members of the Trinidad Drug Trafficking Organization, confronted four people who were selling drugs in Reading, Pennsylvania. The confrontation soon turned into murder. Three victims died at the scene, with the fourth, Sanchez Laporte, his nephew passed away at a hospital. And later on, they cuffed and stuffed Sanchez laporte, and he was arrested for the murders. A little bit of crime you didn't know or a lot of people, unless they were family members of. Of these victims. Let's talk about these. This ICE that's going on. Look, you know, people are getting murdered, whether it's good shootings or bad shootings and these riots and protests and. And all that. Listen, all about justice, people. I don't care if you're a cop and you kill someone or you murder someone, take the life illegally. Fuck you, you're going to prison, or you should, and they're going to investigate it. There's never been more scrutiny on law enforcement than there is nowadays, right? And if you're on the other side of the cops and against the deportations or whatever, you know, whatever you want to call this, what's going on then? And you buy the cop's finger off when they're trying to deport somebody, you should go to jail also, right? And the. You know, this last guy, they got shot, they said he was licensed to carry his pistol and they were trying to disarm and he's getting involved in the middle of the. The rest are trying to be made. I think he was a nurse or something. And if it's. I haven't seen the videos. I mean the. But you know, I read the stories like everybody else and from what they're reporting, they evidently took his, his firearm away from him and then shot him. Well, if that's the case as fucking cold blooded murder and they need to go to prison. But if it's not the case and it will be investigated, the whole story will come out. If it's not the case, if it didn't go down like that, then shame on the people for saying that it did. But it will come out. Justice will prevail. At some point there's got to be a common of the wars people. I mean whether you like it or not, the, the laws are there for a reason. And that's the same laws that say cops can't shoot innocent people. That's the same laws that say people can't bite cops fingers off. Right? Or you know, should I go to Belize? We go to Belize and you get a. You can stay for up to 90 days. You better. They have your hotel, they have your passport number and everything else. If you're not gone in your 90 days, they're coming to get you. This is what's considered a third world country. They fucking come get your ass and they ship you out and you don't get to come back. I mean these very strict rules and laws and regulations for a reason. And now that our country is trying to play catch up because the doors have been open for so long and there's been no enforcement on it, you know, all this shit. And yeah, does, does it. If you're on one side or the other, you can make an argument for it, but I mean certainly it looks like. Or you could compare it back to the night late 1930s and early 1940s when the Nazis were doing their right. If you want to look at it from that perspective. The other perspective is you look at it is that somebody's here illegally in whether they came and they have families that are here, they've been born here, whatever. I don't know, I don't know all the immigration laws, but I know there are laws and, and if we don't have laws, the just like immigration laws and they're not enforced. What if we didn't enforce murder laws? I mean it'd be the wild wild West. So I'm not on one Side or the other. I'm almost. I'm on the side of justice. How about that? I hate that all this shit's going on. It's. It's a shame. I mean, should be peace and love people, not. Not murder. All right, so. I don't know. All right, let's get down to some. Let's do a. It's time for effort of professionals verdict.

Woody Overton
For the security guard who killed a man shoplifting snacks. Blake has the breaking news update from the newsroom this afternoon. Blake, William Pinkin took the stand today in his own defense. Yeah, Derek, that jury coming back with that verdict in the past hour, guilty on both counts, including first degree. And things did get a little tense in the courtroom as Pinkin was sworn in to testify this afternoon.

News Reporter / Anchor
It's not have you ever been convicted of a felony?

Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
It's have you ever been convicted of a crime? Oh, so that is what's supposed to support. Oh, boy, there's some kangaroo crap. Come on, let's get this over with. So you know what I gotta do.

Woody Overton
William Pinkin was working at the Clark gas station near Tetonia and Roosevelt back in 2023. He shot Isaiah Allen for shoplifting. Little Debbie's on the stand today. Pinkin says he doesn't remember what happened the day of the shooting. This guy with the red hat, do you remember him coming up to you? No, not from the video, but in your. In your head. I sat down until. When the gunshot went off. I don't remember. The gunshot woke me up. Now, after today's conviction, Pinkin did ask the court to find him not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect. The court set a hearing for next month. Blake Eason in the newsroom here this afternoon. A driver in a stolen van.

Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
Yo. What the. All right, in. In Milwaukee, like to said the jury found the security guard guilty, killing the man for shoplifting Little Debbie cakes.
- [10:52]
News Reporter / Anchor
And.
- [10:54]
Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
I mean, it just doesn't make any sense. He says this guy's name is Pinkin and he's working at a Clark gas station near Totoni Avenue and Roosevelt Drive. And back in 2023 when he shot Isaiah. Isaiah Allen for shop lifting. Little Debbie's cakes. And this idiot, first of all, he's an idiot for taking the stand. Secondly, he just gets up there and he says, oh, I don't remember what happened. Well, I'm pretty sure you're going to prison. You. So, I mean, and. And he tried to get him to. To find him not guilty by reason of sanity. Well, that's not really going to fly. And hopefully you can get you some ZZ and the Debbie Cakes in prison. I mean, I just. What gas station has an armed security guard? I used to train the ones for the jury stores that I went around the country and did it for. And part of my deal was I had to set up the policy procedures for these jury for these security guards, which are private companies. And holy. The almost every one of them was either a retired cop or somebody who couldn't make it as a cop. And the ones who couldn't get hired as a cop and got to carry a firearm that you're asking for trouble. Right. It's time for family matters. All right. We're bringing it back home to Louisiana. Going across the river from East Baton Rouge into West Baton Rouge. Who's a bad one? The West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office. I got dear friends over there and they helped us in the Mary Pooh showcase, if y' all remember that one. That was another case that they said was an accident and turned out a wedding. Her husband, who's the ex warden for the West Ben Ross office, Peanut took a 60 year plea to the murder after we started the investigation on real life, real crime. So anyway, the West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office are investigating sexual allegations about three people. And they made the arrest in three people. And these allegations of course, naturally in the spirit of true crime time for they're against kids. So they said. The investigation was initiated on Friday, January 23rd at a home located in the 2400 block of Riverside Drive. And as they got into it, West Baton Rouge Sheriff's office learned that the biological father of the person who was victimized committed acts of sexual misconduct, including, well, involving a juvenile victim over the age of 13, but on at least, at least five separate occasions. So raping a kid on the biological father, you imagine your daddy raping you at any age. So the. This douchebag, and I hate that word, but this dickhead. The biological father was identified as Clayton Cooper, who's 44 years old, of Port Allen. You know, Port Allen is directly across the bridge, the Mississippi river from East Baton Rouge, downtown East Baton Rouge. And he was charged with five counts of secondary rape and possession of Schedule 2 control, danger, sustenance. Guess what it was. Methamphetamine. I told you for the meth heads is 90% sexual. When I get. When they get on meth. But further investigation led the West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office to find out. The mother of the victim and the stepfather of the victim were told about the sexual misconduct by the victim. Rape, but did not go to law enforcement. Can you imagine your teenager coming up to you and saying, you know, it's a split household and you go to see daddy and the teenagers getting raped. It's not like they're a four year old and can't enunciate their words. They come home and tell you they're getting raped, but you're like, we don't believe you. So they were identified as Katie Green, who's 41, of Port Allen, and Dallas Green is 43 of Port Allen, and they were charged with failure to report the commission of certain felonies, I. E. Rape. Wow. I hate that for that kid, the teenager. And we have one teenager left and of course we have a grandkid now. I can't imagine. I don't want to imagine. How about that? I'm not big on New Year's resolutions and I don't sit around making promises myself I'm not going to keep. But I do believe in starting the year, doing things right. 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 Sideroll from Farming Nutra. Sideroll is a premium iron supplement powered by the patented sucrosomil 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. Sideroll 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 it's 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.

Jackson county school board members met this morning to reconsider an earlier decision about expelling a student. Last month they voted against expelling the.

To return to campus. As News 13's Peyton Gay tells us.
- [20:49]
Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
Some today, some board members change their minds.
- [20:53]
News Reporter / Anchor
Back on December 18th, Jackson County School board members considered the matter of a Marietta High School student accused of making online threats of violence. The board voted 3 to 2 against expulsion, but did not let the student return to campus. Instead, he's been attending virtual online classes. Friday, his council pushed for the boy to be allowed back on campus.
- [21:10]
Woody Overton
Our position is that my client after that vote and still today is in a rightful position to be reinstated as a full in person student at Marianna High School. The constitution of the state of Florida gives him that right to a free public education. To bar him from such after a vote not to expel him is sick and beyond all due process.
- [21:44]
News Reporter / Anchor
But the superintendent's attorney argued that the nature of the threats warranted the school district's actions.
- [21:49]
Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
There was.
- [21:52]
Woody Overton
Multiple postings by the student that referenced violence, glorification of others who had committed violence, glorification of Nazism, glorification of other mass and school shootings. The student testified that he made every one of these postings that it was not a matter of fact before the board asked a who posted these online postings because the student admitted at our hearing that he did in fact make all of these postings.
- [22:39]
News Reporter / Anchor
Then board member Tony Pumphrey asked for a new expulsion vote.
- [22:43]
Woody Overton
But since I was on prevailing vote, I'd like to make a motion to the people sitting on my vote, changed it and offered a motion for expulsion.
- [22:52]
News Reporter / Anchor
The student's attorney was disappointed by the expulsion, but plans to fight the decision.
- [22:56]
Woody Overton
That represented to the board that no threat was made. And I firmly believe that and we will appeal this and although we are not happy with the outcome today, we do believe justice, even if we have to be patient for it. Justice delayed is not justice denied and it will be served one day.
- [23:15]
News Reporter / Anchor
School members didn't comment on the decision, but issued the statement saying students and staff members safety is their highest priority and they strive to provide a safe learning environment in Jackson county. Peyton gay news 13.

Woody Overton (True Crime Host)
You know what the the biggest issue for me with that is this. This kid got online and threatened saying he's a Nazi and and threatened to kill people at the school. I'm coming to school. I'm going to kill them the, you know, references other school shootings, Columbine, everything else. And they repeatedly post the stuff and they have a hearing, an expulsion hearing. I don't know why the, you have to have that. And he admits that he did all that. The, the, the up in this case is they didn't expel him the first time and some attorney got oh you know what? They didn't expel you. They gonna let you continue online. Well that goes against the Florida Constitution by every. All students provided free whatever in person, public education. Well, they fucking should have expelled him the first time. So now they. Which is the right move. They, they were like, you know what, we can null this shit out because now we're just going to read vote and expel him. He should be, the kids should be locked up, getting mental health if that's what it needs or whatever. But if, I mean if you're a self proclaimed racist and you or say I' going to commit acts of violence, what's the, if you let him back into school, what do you think's going to happen? What do you think the other kids, how they're going to treat him, etc, then he's really going to get pissed off and one day he might show up and just kill everybody. I, I mean at what point does it come that you could just make threats and you get a lawyer to stand up there and, and take his time to try to get you back in and that. For the record, the last teenager we have at home, he's homeschooled. And you know, in the beginning I was kind of kind. I mean he's a big dude, right? He should be playing football and everything else. But I'm glad he's homeschool because all that kind of that's going on. He didn't have to worry about someone showing up in his classroom after being proclaiming himself to be a Nazi and that they're going to do all kinds of harm and he doesn't have to worry about them showing up to do it. How about that? All right y', all, you know I love me a cold case. Hashtag just for Bradley. Hashtag just for AO. Hashtag just for Ms. Barbara Blunt. Oh, you know what? Hashtag just for Haley, y'. All. I think there's, it's over 4,000 something dollars has been raised so far on the GoFundMe to hire the evidence room to come in, do the physical reconstruction if you can, if you can afford to and you're so inclined, please go to any of your social media or go to gofundme under Haley Johnson and that Ms. Barber's trying to raise $10,000 to get the these experts to come in and reconstruct the crime scene. Very important. But I love to solve a cold case and I love hearing when cold cases get solved right. And just like nobody, not nobody, but some of you naysayers who still listen to me, by the way, even though you hate me. And I appreciate it. Thank you for that. The you don't think Bradley's case is ever going to get solved? It's going to get solved and it doesn't matter who does it. But we're going to Indiana. Check this one out. How long is the longest cold case you ever heard about besides like Jack the Ripper? Well, and the Indiana man was arrested on Wednesday in connection with a murder that has remained unsolved for more than 50 years, y'. All and Indiana State Police said 71 year old Johnny Ray Salisbury of Syracuse was taken into custody on Wednesday as a suspect in the 1975 killing of 34 year old Edmund Lefabre in San Diego, California. So to give you some information on it, the San Diego Police Department said that despite an exhaustive investigation until the five's slaying, the case eventually went cold and investigators use forensic investigative, genetic genealogy technology and other forensic evidence to identify Salisbury. It said various cold case investigators have reviewed the case over the years with no resolution. This according to La Crus Lt. Chris Lee of San Diego PD. It said LAFAV was found dead and the victim in his home on the 2900 block of Suncast Suncrest Drive on February 25, 1975. The officers got to the scene. They found the five on his bedroom floor in a pool of blood. He had been stabbed multiple times and severely beaten. Indiana State Police said its investigators, including those in the Cold Case Unit, were contacted by San Diego cold case detectives and back in 2024 for assistance with the 1975 murder case. And they did what they do and Salisbury was taken into custody in North Webster, Indiana on Wednesday after investigators from San Diego PD flew to Indiana and issued an arrest warrant. The Syracuse Police Department assisted with the the warrant service meaning the rest y'. All Then they said it's unclear whatever the motive was at the time. So the San Diego Police San Diego State Police Department Cold Case Unit worked close with the San Diego County District Attorney's Office and the FBI throughout this investigation. They also received assistance from the Indiana State Police, the Syracuse Police Department and Koshuka county for prosecuting Attorney's Office and taken Salisbury into custody. Well, got him in custody. What happens next? San Diego Police Department said Salisbury was booked in Warsaw, Indiana for a homicide warrant and he's awaiting the extradition here. And you know how old is this motherfucker now? 75. The hey, just goes to show you, murder never goes away, y'. All Never goes away. Doesn't matter if it takes seven years or in this case, 50 years. The this got away with it for 50 years. 50 Christmases, 50 Thanksgiving, 50 birthdays. And now any kind of sentence he gets will be a death sentence. Right? So shout out to them for working on it and bringing it to closure. I doubt the victim's family members are even still alive at this point. Right? The I don't know. Good. It's time for effort of professionals. All right, check out this next story. The I know many of us have ridden a school bus in our day, right? I think I rode one to like second grade or something. And I remember having to stand out there and wait on the bus. And we were way out in the country and so we had the same bus driver. And when you were actually I would end up graduating with her son years later and she since deceased. But you never forget that kind of person, right? Well, let me tell you about a school bus driver from Nebraska. And I bet that her kids won't forget her either. And you know why? Because she is accused of driving a school bus with a blood alcohol level nearly three times the legal limit, right? She got arrested. Now guess what? She's taken a plea deal. Betty Johnson. And guess how old Miss Betty is. She's 68 years old, y'. All. And she pledged no contest to the 0.15 plus DUI. Child abuse in the first offense, reckless driving withdrawal misdemeanors. And this court in the central Nebraska CBS affiliate koln. But as part of the court agreement, prosecutors dropped two counts of transporting the child while intoxicated. I guess there were only two kids on the bus or something. I don't know how you choose one over the other. But Johnson was a bus driver for the North School District in Lancaster County, Nebraska. And on May 7, 2025, she drove her morning bus route with 40 children inside. Then she apparently had time before her next schedule route at noon. She had some time in between, but she showed up and drove her noon route also. And then she sets driving after school bus route too. But at 3.30pm that day, school staff contacted the sheriff's office and the school resource officer with a concern. The deputy had made contact with the staff and Johnson. And during that time, Betty was noticeably, extremely highly intoxicated. And then she was given a breath test, which she did not pass. She didn't study enough for y'. All. She failed the out of it. She blew a 0.22 blood alcohol content, nearly three times the legal limit of 0.08. And then actually they cuffed her and stuffer and took her to jail, they said quotations. Betty did admit to drinking prior to doing her noon bus route, though it is unclear if she drank before the morning route too. And I've been doing this job for 32 years now. I've never heard of a school bus driver being intoxicated, let alone this high. Y', all, that is up in Louisiana, if you're a cop and you blow a 0.30 and she blew a 0.22, you blew a 0.30, they gotta take you to the hospital. And I told you one night I did the drinking test and slammed like 18 beers. An hour and a half, something like that. And one blew on the machine and I only blew a 0.14. And I was blackout drunk, so. And this is 68 year old lady. So Johnson also admitted to drinking after her noon bus route, which contained preschoolers. They said we are very lucky that she got caught and was not allowed to do that after school one this according to Chief Deputy Ben Hoochin, the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office. Well, naturally the school district fired Johnson after her arrest, and they said she will not drive our school district ever again. Well, you think so? They said we want to emphasize that student safety is our number one priority. And we thank the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office for their continued partnership with us to keep our students safe. Ms. Johnson, sweetie, you're 68 years old and Lord, I mean, I don't know you got away with it for that long. It's not like you wake up at 68 years old and just decide, I'm gonna drink me a handle of vodka today or half a gallon of vodka while I drive 40 kids around. And look, it's not think about a school bus driver. It's not like you driving a Walmart. You go stop at least 40 separate times and you gotta watch for traffic and everything else. And I guess they're really lucky the one that killed, right? So get that MX Gold card ready. I'm way too tired to cook tonight.

Let's come back home to the great state of Louisiana and we're going to A New Orleans man was sentenced to 30 years for attempted second degree murder in in connection with a 2022 Donaldsonville shooting. All right, y', all, Donaldsonville is in Ascension Parish and that's actually where they're it's kind of funny how it's split up because Ascension Parish is the one that busts up to Livingston Parish. But Essential Parish has a Mississippi river running right through the middle of it and you have to cross Sunshine Bridge in the in the Dville is what I call it. And that's where their jail is and I've had to go over there a whole bunch of times for various reasons. Shout out to the Grapevine restaurant if it's still there. Best food in the world. If you're ever in town any in a new city and you want to know what the best place to eat is, ask a cop because they can tell you. But anyway going to deville and according to the news release from the Office of the 23rd Judicial District Attorney Ricky Bavin Marquis Ricky Babin is a cool guy. The you know he very good prosecutor. So anyway, according to Ricky Babin, Marke Martin was sentenced Jan. 13 with the Louisiana Department of Corrections with credit for time served and he has to serve the sentence without the benefit of parole, probation or the suspension of the sentence. And Martin pled guilty to the charge August on August 26, 2025 and this the whistle Ricky Baba said Now Judge Cody Martin presided over the matter which was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Chris Carter. According to the release, deputies with the cinch of parish Sheriff's office responded to the Donaldsonville residents on October 29, 2022 in reference to a shooting shots fired. Neighbors had contacted authorities after a person was found suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. That's a play on words, right? I don't even know if you have to say those two together. If you have a gunshot wound to your head and you're still alive, I guarantee you you're suffering. But detectives got video surveillance that showed a male leaving the residence in the shooting victim's vehicle shortly before 911 was called. And then they do a BOLO be on the lookout for to all the surrounding parishes and after they did that, the vehicle was located in Jefferson Parish, which is butts up to Orleans. So that's on the way down there. And deputies, you know got get the BOLO and they see the vehicle, they stop it and they were able to take the driver, who was Martin into into custody. And detectives also got evidence identify him and misses as the shooter. And he is now going. He'll be suffering, but won't be from a gunshot wound to the head. He'll be suffering in Angola. Good job on that one. It's time for family matters. We're gonna roll out to Michigan, y'. All. And this is a story. A dad and he's accused of beating and choking his nine year old son. Why, you may ask? I mean did he, the nine year old son, try to rape his sister or kill his mom or something? No, he beat him and choked him for falling asleep on the couch and placing lit cigarettes on his one year old son's back. The. The dad did this. Okay. The dad beat and choked his 9 year old son for falling asleep on the couch and on top of him beating and choking his nine year old son. He placed lit cigarettes on his one year old son's back. All kinds, bro. All kinds. But guess what? This they got him and his name Cedric Dequel Stevens Moore. And he's been sentenced to between three and ten years behind bars. He played no contest child abuse charges in December. The y'. All no contest means you're. You're guilty as you're just saying they can't sue you for it, right? That you're not arguing the charges. But he played no contest to child abuse charges in December which means he's guilty. And he essentially acknowledging the prosecutors would have enough evidence to prove the allegations against him, although he does not actually admit guilt. Again, y', all, it has absolutely zero bearing. It is a guilty verdict except for that you can't be sued. That's all it is. But for admitting that you committed these crimes. So don't, don't let that fool you. So they said Moore, who's 38, was accused of abusing his kids in June and the older boy in the house escaped the home, which was in the 100 block of South east street in Pontiac after Moore left to go to the store and I guess more that needed to go get some more cigarettes put out or to let burn his one year old. But thank God the nine year old got out of the house and the boy ran to another home. And that homeowner called the police. Well, the police Showed up and they examined him and they found the boy had severe abrasions to his right eye and around his neck, along with welts on his torso. And he told them his father had beaten him with a belt on his face, back, legs and buttocks. And then he hits him with a broom handle before choking him until he lost consciousness. Thank God that kid's alive. But during the attack more. The dad said it's gonna happen all night. And he choked him out. And then he leaves to go to the store because I guess he's gonna get him some more alcohol and cigarettes, come back because in his words, it's going to happen all night. Well, thank God that baby woke up. But the nine year old also said his father became upset when the younger children began crying because he was hungry. More through the one year old into his crib. And on inspection of the younger boy, it revealed he had healed cigarette burns on his backs and legs. One year old, y', all, you can't even say, daddy, don't do it. So they arrested him and in time his rest. Moore told a relative, he said, I was whooping my son for stealing. And paramedics took the boy to the hospital for treatment for his injuries. And his mom did not live at home with Moore at because the one year old's mother was in jail at the time Moore's arrest, Child protective services took custody of the child. But it's going to happen all night. I hope it happens all night to you in prison, Mr. Moore. In Michigan. I mean. All right, let's go on down. Harris County H town, home of Leah Marie, our investigative producer. Leah or prayers are still with you and your family on the loss of your mother, right? So. But I had a kid. I said, kid. They called him juvenile in the department of corrections on extended work and cell block because he couldn't follow the rules in prison. So he had to be locked down there with rusted assholes. But he had juvenile life. And so on his 21st birthday, checked him out, right? And got his shit, turned them out. You know, I would talk to him, he's from New Orleans. And I was talking to him, I said, I said, juvenile, what you gonna do when you get out? He said, I'm gonna do the same. He said, which was carjacking, y'. All. And he said, but he said, I'm gonna do something different this time, Serge, so what you gonna do different? He said, I'm gonna kill the next carjack so they can't testify against me. And he was now for three months. And I read that he got arrested for shooting a victim of a carjacking. But guess what? That dude lived in juvenile is probably we weren't that far apart in age. So he's probably my age and, and he's going to die in Angola. Let's go to Houston and let me tell you about another dude that's in a world of hurt.

That's right. And that's exactly where I am standing. In fact, Houston police say they have charged a man with felony murder because he allegedly carjacked a mother and child's car, drove at a high rate of speed, ended up crashing into an innocent man here who was just trying to make a few extra dollars to support his own children. So just a tragic situation all the way around. According to Houston police, this happened around 12:45 in the morning, Saturday morning right here. Jonathan Ordinaz, who is the suspect, allegedly got into an argument with someone at a party and that party was taking place around the 2700 block of Travis. Court records show Ordinance allegedly then jumped into a car after that argument. It was a Ford Edge with the mother and child inside. The mother and child managed to get out. Okay. That's perhaps the one silver lining. He then allegedly drove that Ford Edge at a high rate of speed up to where I am at the 1000 block of Travis and slammed into a car being driven by David Incan. Family members tell us Incan was a loving father, husband and a friend. He had a day job but was apparently driving rideshare overnight. The across according to his family, when he was hit and killed. All he was doing, they say, was trying to make a few extra dollars to support his kids. We are told Ordinance was also injured in that crash. He is still in the hospital and that is why Houston police say they do not have a mug shot to release yet. It is also why the district attorney's office records show that his first court appearance has been rescheduled. We're live downtown.

My issue shade abc13i and there you have it. Now you carjack because you're, you're being an already right? So you, you're fleeing from a scene and you carjack a Ford escape or whatever. I think that's one of those little baby cars, but it's got a mom and a baby in it. I mean, don't you think you would try to carjack a car that didn't have a kid in it? I did have a case like that. What's his name? Red Thornton. I arrested three generations of the Thorntons, and he did a carjacking. Well, it wasn't carjacking. He just stole a car from the gas station while the mom was inside. And he didn't realize there was a toddler in the back seat. And he knew what he did. He just pulled over and put the toddler out on the side of the road, and thank God we got the baby, somebody stopped and 4k get killed. But you. You get. You let them out of the car, but you run on down the road because you're being an. And you. You kill an innocent man who's working two jobs to support his family. He's out there doing Uber lifts or whatever the. And trying to make a dollar. And you're an. And you're in the commission of multiple felonies, and you kill this innocent person, y'. All. They showed the video. I don't know how that small of a car did that much damage, but. Yeah, no, Texas has that penalty. I don't think he'll get it in this case. Maybe will. I don't know. But there you have it. True crime time for January 28, 2026. Can you believe this month is almost over? The first month of 2026. And today I am having the privilege and the great honor of speaking for my father, Woodrow Lee O. Overton Senior. The Louisiana Bar association and the East Baton Rouge Parish Bar association, the government lawyers, they're swearing in all the new lawyers, and they are honoring the bar members that have passed this past year, which my father died. And I've been invited to speak before the court at, you know, to, I guess, tell a little story about my dad's life who. And it was a 48 year trial lawyer, right? So, I mean, they know him. He, you know, was a badass and. And I'll tell you that he was a badass, and he started a lot of things and won a lot. A lot of the largest verdicts ever in some of these parishes back at that point in time and always fought for his clients. So today I will be standing up in front of all those lawyers and judges and members of the bar, and I thank y' all for allowing me to speak and, you know, give pay homage to my father because he deserves it. But I, Woody Overton, and I don't have anything else. Hashtag just for Bradley never given up. Remember that. Bad people Brian Wallace. I'm not going away, bitch. Hashtag justice for Bradley. Hashtag justice for AO313R LRC tip if you can go to GoFundMe, it's on any or social media and give a dollar or $100 whatever you can. You can give Anonymous. That's what we did that we want to get the evidence room in. This our last shot, y', all for Ms. Barber to get justice for Haley. So with that being said, I'm out of here. Talk to y' all later. I love and appreciate each and every one of you. And I'm Woody Overton, you host a true crime. Time for January 28, 2026. Holla at you later. Peace.
