Okay.

And chilly weather.

[Cindy Overton]

It is chilly weather.

[Woody Overton]

I like that.

[Cindy Overton]

Chilly, chilly, chilly. Well, I'm going to take us to some place that's probably not too chilly right now, which is San Antonio. Okay, we're going.

[Woody Overton]

San Antonio gets a little chilly, but it's probably about the same temperature as us.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay?

[Woody Overton]

Okay. And what's the temperature in San Antonio?

[Alli Jackson]

It's 67 degrees right now in San Antonio.

[Woody Overton]

[Cindy Overton]

[Woody Overton]

I said okay.

[Cindy Overton]

I didn't argue. You're arguing with yourself.

[Woody Overton]

I was just checking.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay.

[Woody Overton]

I spent a lot of time there, remember? Go ahead. I'll be quiet.

[Cindy Overton]

In the early hours of Sunday, October 26, around a 1am, 23 year old Shatiq Deshawn Wilson snuck into his ex girlfriend's home in the 73rd hundredth block of Ravine Trail in Converse, Texas, which is a suburb of San Antonio, and Wilson told police he intended to surprise his ex with flowers, cash and drugs, so he hid in the daughter's closet inside the home.

[Woody Overton]

Nice.

[Cindy Overton]

The ex girlfriend and her new partner, 35 year old Noel Denzel Miller, arrived shortly after. While Miller and the woman went upstairs, Wilson remained hidden. The woman told investigators that she went to shower and then heard gunshots. She ran to her son's bedroom and found Miller suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and he was rushed to the hospital but later pronounced dead. According to an affidavit from the Bexar County Sheriff's Office, Wilson admitted to hiding in the closet, drinking a few fruit colored alcoholic beverages and watched some videos while he waited.

[Woody Overton]

Nice.

[Cindy Overton]

When the couple arrived and Miller spotted him, the exchange occurred and Wilson claimed Miller pointed a gun at him, prompting Wilson to shoot in self defense. The woman told deputies that Wilson briefly held onto her phone, preventing her from calling 911 before fleeing the scene and Wilson discarded the flowers, his phone, a firearm and headphones during his escape. Deputies found multiple spent shell casings and bullet damage inside the upstairs bedroom. Wilson was arrested without incident later that morning at a residence on Chestnut Manor with a bell set at and he was charged with murder.

[Woody Overton]

Oh Mr. Wilson Sugar, turn to Sugar turn to. Yeah. All right. I got a pretty interesting story for you. It's time for effed up professionals. You know, my pawpaw was a judge and my baby sister is a judge and my godmother, my aunt, my mom's sister is a judge now here and all that. Pretty prestigious position. Right. But we're going to Arizona, by the way. And. Yeah. Just pillar of the community. Got to be elected in most cases. Got to be elected and dispensing justice and just a good person. Right?

[Cindy Overton]

You would hope.

[Woody Overton]

All right, well, an Arizona Superior Court. So not even like your local yokel, you know, or you're not that. That's a derogatory term by any means. Not like your local, you know, parish judge if you're in Louisiana, or county judge if you're somewhere else or city judge, but a superior court judge.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

So you've been a judge for a minute and an Arizona Superior court judge has resigned.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay.

[Woody Overton]

I'm gonna see how can you think what you think they did.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, my gosh. They sold drugs. They human trafficked.

[Woody Overton]

Who's they?

[Cindy Overton]

The judge.

[Woody Overton]

What? The judge is.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, like what type of job? I'm confused.

[Woody Overton]

Man or woman?

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, it's a woman.

[Woody Overton]

Oh, God. You always said that because. Because you asked the question get you to be sexist. Well, I was a female and she was caught urinating in public just steps from the courthouse.

[Cindy Overton]

She's a woman and she's probably birthed babies. And I understand her pain. I'm sorry if you got.

[Woody Overton]

You're gonna feel really stupid when I. When I tell the rest of the story. So Prescott Police responded around 1:30am on Oct. 4 after witnesses reported a woman relieving herself near the Montezuma and Gurley street on the same block as the courthouse plaza where she worked. Now, they had body cameras on and Fox News Digital got the body cameras put to Michael play because it doesn't do it justice. But the. It shows the. Yep. However you say. Yaba Pie County Superior Court judge, pro temper Christine Shafe Olson pulling up her pants before quickly sitting on the bench. This is disgusting. The responding officer says as he approaches the judge. The video shows Shafa Olson struggling to spell her own name as the officer attempts to identify her. Moments later, her husband, Jason Olson, who serves as the parks and recreational manager for the town of Chino Valley. He approaches the cops talking to his wife and tries to pull his wife away from the officers and the cops.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

Like, hey, dude, get back.

[Woody Overton]

And he's like, no, I'm not. Yeah, And. And he says, why is she being questioned? And the cop says, because I just saw her puking and urinating and exposing herself to several people. And, you know, husband says, no, that wasn't her.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

They got it on video camera.

[Woody Overton]

And then he continues to resist police commands. They're like, you know, step away. You know, step away. And he won. He's.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

Getting in between. So the officers take him to the ground. And one of them says, get your ass on the ground, dude. The officers. And the guy says, I'm not doing anything. And they called in 515. We're fighting. And this can be heard as one. One of the cops is saying is several of the officers had to take him down to put him in handcuffs. The judge, Sheriff Olson, was cited for urinating or defecating in public. And the video shows her identifying herself as a judge, saying, that's fine. I want to let you know my name is Judge Kristen Olsen. Now Shea Folson is also seen struggling to sign the citation. She's tore up. Yeah, okay, but what happened to your mama had a baby. This one was fucking hammered.

[Cindy Overton]

I was joking when I said it.

[Woody Overton]

So. Nope, right here on the screen. On the screen, an officer says, and she can't even sign her own name. And her husband was cited for resistant arrest and interfering with a crime scene investigation and obstruction of government operations. Well, of course, this is all over the news. And days later, the Yuppo Yavapai County Superior Court confirmed that Cheife Olson had submitted her resignation effectively on Halloween. She says, my resignation comes after careful consideration of current physical, medical and family circumstances. Then she added that Yavapai community deserves and has judges who are steadfast in their commitment to serving the the county. Considering current events in my life, I believe it would be difficult to honor this commitment. I have therefore decided to resign. Well, she. She has a pretrial conference and on December 16th, and our husband's is on November 18th. So there you have it. Can't be a judge in cup on a squat and puking and just right in front of everybody.

[Cindy Overton]

I know.

[Woody Overton]

And then they, I mean, so tore up you can't sign your name and you telling, hey, I'm a judge. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'mma judge you for just dropping your squat on this and putting your beaver on the. On the sidewalk.

[Cindy Overton]

Beaver.

[Woody Overton]

Right.

[Cindy Overton]

Sidewalk.

[Woody Overton]

Oh, she did it.

[Cindy Overton]

It.

[Woody Overton]

What do you think? Look at this. This. She's no spring chicken. Look at her. Can't do that, Judge. I'm sorry. You're Not a judge anymore?

[Cindy Overton]

No. Well, she made the right decision because no one walking into that courtroom would have respected her after that. And you know, at the beginning of that, I was completely joking. I knew she had done something bad.

[Woody Overton]

I know. Don't be so defensive.

[Cindy Overton]

You're the one that said I was going to feel stupid after that.

[Woody Overton]

I did.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

You do.

[Cindy Overton]

I don't feel stupid. Anybody that has a sense of humor knew I was joking.

[Woody Overton]

All right. I love you. Go. It's time for family matters.

[Cindy Overton]

Take us up the road from San Antonio to Houston.

[Woody Overton]

That's actually sideways sad. Yes. East of southeast of it. Yep.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay, well, so in southeast Houston, at the Sage Hollow apartment on Fusewa Street, a four year old boy was accidentally shot in the head after gaining access to a loaded firearm. The Houston Police Department reports that a loaded gun was stored within reach on a shelf inside the apartment and it was not secured with a trigger lock. Court records show that 27 year old Nicholas Cepeda Quintanilla was a convicted felon and he has been arrested and charged with injury to a child and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon in. In connection with the incident. Investigators say that Zepeta Quintanilla purchased the firearm for the child's mother, and he and the mother claim they fell asleep and awoke to the sound of a gunshot, discovering the child injured on the floor. Reports also reveal that his prior felony conviction was. Was from a 2021 assaulting of a security officer. And that conviction barred him from obviously legally owning a firearm. At the time of the incident, he was out on bond with an unrelated charge, specifically accused of fleeing from police. And the boy, thank goodness, survived and he remains in critical condition. But. But authorities have also detained the child's mother and of course the boyfriend for questioning. So secure your firearms.

[Woody Overton]

I mean, it just really gives firearms a bad name.

[Cindy Overton]

Have I ever told you about being in my mom's bedroom? When I was probably about five, we lived in a townhouse and I went to the side of her bed and there was a gun on her bedside table. And I picked it up and I walked to the foot of the stair and her boyfriend at the time saw me and he just like freaked out and he was like, put the gun like, you know, like. But he's scared. You know, his. His reaction probably could have caused an accident. You know what I mean? Like, I was. He scared me. He didn't tell me what to do. It's just like, put the gun down, take your face. I mean, I don't know I just.

[Woody Overton]

Remember it being very like Every kid that comes in my house gets trained on firearms. Treat all firearms like they're loaded. Never put your finger on the trigger unless you're going to kill something. And never point it at somebody or something unless you intend to kill it. Yeah, so. But it's. I'm. It's sad. I worked a ton of those cases over the years.

The one thing that actually shapes your energy, your mood, and even how well you sleep at night. Most people think it's exercise or diet alone, but the truth is it all starts right there in your gut. I've been reading about this lately and it turns out scientists now openly say your gut is the foundation of everything from digestion and weight management to energy focus, even longevity. But here's the problem. As we age, the beneficial bacteria in our gut starts to deplete. That's when we start feeling run down, bloated, or just not ourselves. That's why I want to tell you about Bioma. Most gut supplements only give you probiotics, maybe a little prebiotic if you're lucky. But Bioma contains all three essential ingredients. Your gut needs prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics. Everything working together to balance your gut microbiome and support real lasting vitality. And these ingredients aren't fluff, they're science backed and third party tested. One of the key strains, Bifidobacterium like this was even found in a clinical study to reduce belly fat percentage in just eight weeks. Pretty amazing stuff, right? Just take two capsules before breakfast, that's it. And you're giving your gut what it actually needs to do its job right? Visit gobioma.comrlrctoday for an extra 15% off your order.

[Woody Overton]

It's time for Beast Mode. So last week we told you about the monkeys escaping from the truck that overturned on Interstate 59 in Mississippi. The ones that are injected with all the bad, bad shit. Well, one of the monkeys that escaped last week was shot and killed early Sunday by a woman who says she feared for the safety of her children because she heard it on shows like this. Right?

[Cindy Overton]

Right.

[Woody Overton]

Jessica Bond Ferguson said she was alerted early Sunday by her 16 year old son who said he thought he had seen a monkey running in the yard outside their home near Heidelberg, Mississippi. He said, I heard about this on true crime time 4. And these monkeys are injected with all kinds of shit. And Woody said that get them. He didn't say that. Anyway, so the mom gets out of bed, grabbed her firearm and her cell phone and stepped outside and she saw the monkey.

[Cindy Overton]

Wow.

[Woody Overton]

About 60ft away. Now, Ferguson said she and other residents had been warned that the escape monkeys carry diseases by true crime time for Woody Overton. So she fired her gun. She said, I did what any other mother would do to protect our children. And she has five children ranging in the ages from 4 to 16. God bless her. She said, I shot at it and just stood there and I shot again. And he backed up and that's when he fell. So the Jasper County Sheriff's Office confirmed in a social media post that a homeowner had found one of the monkeys on their property Sunday morning after they heard about it on True crimes high and 4. And the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks took possession of the monkey but they wore some gloves and a hazmat suit. Yeah, before Bon Ferguson, the shooter had gone out the door. She had called the police and was told to keep an eye on the monkey. But she said she was worried that if the monkey got away, it would threaten children at another house. If it attacked somebody's kid and I could have stopped it, that would, that would be a lot on me. And she's a 35 year old professional chef. She said it's kind of scary and dangerous that they are running around and people have their kids playing in the yards. Well, she heard it here first. The Anyway, they're called the Razeus monkeys and they had been housed at the Tulane University National Biomedical Research center in New Orleans. That's never a good thing. He had that long of a name. And who knows what they did to those raises monkeys Anyway, that center routinely provides primates or monkeys and other to scientific research organizations. And in a statement last week, Tulane said the monkeys do not belong to the university and they were not being transported by the university. Well, somebody wasn't telling the truth there. So the truck carrying the monkeys overturned on Tuesday on Interstate 59 north of Heidelberg. And of the 21 of 21 of the monkeys in the truck, 13 were found at the scene of the accident and arrived at their original destination last week. And it's according to tlane who by the way says that they're not transporting.

[Cindy Overton]

It, they're not theirs, but they're okay.

[Woody Overton]

Another five were killed in the hunt for them and three remained on the loose before this lady smoked one. So the Mississippi Highway Patrol has said it was investigating the cause of crash which occurred 100 miles away from the state capital of Jackson. Now, these razors monkeys typically weigh about 16 pounds and are among the most medically studied animals on the planet. Video recorded after crash showed monkeys crawling through tall grass beside the interstate where wooden crates labeled live animals were crumpled and strewn about. So Jasper County Sheriff Randy Johnson had said. Tulane officials reported the monkeys were not infectious despite initial reports by the truck's occupants warning that the monkeys were dangerous and harboring various diseases. Like we're going to believe anything Tulane saying they're denying. How the fuck you know they're not your monkey? Yeah, how do you write anyway, Johnson said the monkey still needed to be neutralized because of their aggressive natures. The monkeys had recently received checkups confirming they were pathogen free. Tulane said again, how do you know they ought to charge those people? They the races ma case are known to be aggressive. According to the Mississippi Department of Wildlife and Fishers and Parks. And it said the agency conservation workers were working with sheriff's office in the search for animals. And listen to this. This search comes about one year after 43 raises. Marquis monkeys, y'. All. The same monkeys escape from a South Carolina compound that breeds them from medical research because an employee didn't fully lock an enclosure. So the. They need to be. They had. They had to set traps to recatch those. So there you have it, beast mode. I think that according to my calculations, they're still two of them running around.

[Cindy Overton]

And let's hope it's not a boy and a girl.

[Woody Overton]

Oh, Lord, I didn't think about that. Yeah, yeah. Could be. Could be. But stay tuned because you never know what kind of public service announce you're going to get on true crime time. For sure. I'm glad they were listening to us over there in Mississippi.

[Cindy Overton]

I'm sure it was all over the news.

[Woody Overton]

Too lame. Be lying. Why you got lie about they don't want a lawsuit. Yeah. Guess what? I'm pretty sure you get a lawsuit anyway. All right, what you got?

[Cindy Overton]

So you have that mom that's trying to protect her kids from getting infectious diseases, right? Well, we always have. You always say it. There's someone on the opposite end of the spectrum.

[Woody Overton]

That's correct.

[Cindy Overton]

So I have a story coming out of Raleigh, North Carolina, Carolina, and on March 21st of this year, a 25 year old patient named Cameron Gilchrist was being treated for diabetes. He is accused of violently assaulting two hospital employees in a way that most people could never imagine.

[Woody Overton]

Okay.

[Cindy Overton]

So according to the arrest warrant, while Gilchrist was receiving care at UNC Rex Hospital, he removed his IV from his arm and then he began to spray his HIV positive blood in the eyes of a male and female hospital worker who were attending to him. So the warrant states that the assault was unlawfully, willfully and feloniously committed and that both victims had irritation and exposure to HIV as a result of the attack. And although it remains unclear whether the staffers were actually infected. But Gilchrist was not arrested immediately. Rather, he was taken into custody in September and he remains under under medical and psychiatric treatment at the time of the incident. And his bond was set at $25,000 and he's scheduled to appear in court on December 8th.

[Woody Overton]

There you have it. Right.

[Cindy Overton]

Hospital officials at UNC Rex acknowledged that violence and threats against medical staff have been increasing. And they reiterated that protecting the safety of their employees is top priority.

[Woody Overton]

No doubt.

[Cindy Overton]

Can you imagine? Well, I know you dealt with like on the street, like you before you had, like you. When you do CPR on someone before you had the mouth covers and, you know, just bodily fluids and stuff like.

[Woody Overton]

That, we had people that, that were known to have full blown aids and they would spit on you and stuff. They were known. And in their criminal file, hey, he's going to spit on you.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

Try to. Contamination. Yeah, yeah. That's told a story about duct tape on that guy's head that time. So he couldn't spit and do not have AIDS because of that. All right, let's go to South Carolina. Now, y' all know I talk about the death penalty. I talk about it often. And now my map has South Carolina, as in a moratorium or on hiatus from death rows, but evidently it's not updated. South Carolina, they let you choose what way you want to go. And the choices are firing squad, electrocution, or lethal injection. What would you choose?

[Cindy Overton]

Lethal injection.

[Woody Overton]

Okay, well, you'd be in South Carolina because they're out of lethal injection.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

I'm just telling you.

[Woody Overton]

I'm telling you. Listen to me. That's one of the three options. But you can't have that option right now because they're running low on the drugs. That's what this, what it says. I'm gonna tell you about fine young man named Stephen Corey Bryant. Okay? And he has been on South Carolina death row, and he has exhausted all of his legal options. And his execution was set by the South Carolina Supreme Court for November 14, 2025. And they gave him until October 31, otherwise known as Halloween, to decide if he wanted to be killed by lethal injection. The electric chair or the firing squad. Right. Great. He gets the cheese. On the last day, Bryant decided to be shot by a firing squad. All right, continuing, I'm gonna tell you all about this beauty. So this decision to opt for being shot makes him the third inmate in South Carolina to select the firing squad this year. Wow.

[Cindy Overton]

Doesn't seem like they have much of another option.

[Woody Overton]

Well, they said, however, if he had made the choice, he faced electrocution because substances for lethal injection are scarce. All right, this is not funny.

[Cindy Overton]

It's not funny.

[Woody Overton]

Let me tell you about what this hero did to get on death row. And it just goes on one and one. So it said, eight shocking days of violent crimes happen way back in October 2004. The entire community of Sumter county could hardly believe what was happening. And this is when Bryant started his journey to death row. And among his crimes, he broke into remote houses pretending to be A motorist in distress while at the same time looking for potential victims. Doesn't sound so bad. Right, but we're just breaking in houses on the grand scale in the scheme of things. But he kicked it up a notch. But he started doing violent acts and by a river he shot a man who was fishing. And later in the week he went on to murder Clifton Gainey. In that case, he set the trailer they found him in on fire talking about Gainey. And then it said however the kill killing of Willard TJ T T I E T J E n who's a 52 year old father and husband is ultimately what led to this idiots being sentenced to death. So the Let me tell you what happened Ransack in the house after shooting. I don't know how to T I e T J E N I hate to get it wrong. T T ransacking the house after shooting teaching nine shot him nine times in the chest in his rural country home. Yeah, but we're not done yet. The after he broke into his home, he shot him nine times in the chest, right? Bad. Yeah, it's bad. Bryant provoked not only the the people that lived in the area, but the cops who investigated and said they felt traumatized. And investigators discovered that Bryant uses cigarette to burn the victim's face and eyes before he shot him nine times. Later he wrote on the walls in blood hashtag victim 4 and 2 weeks catch me if you can.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh my gosh.

[Woody Overton]

Making it even worse, teachers and his family tried reaching him on the phone. However, Brian answered the phone. All right, this is before shot of nine times. Meanwhile, he's burning and burning his eyes. Brian answered the phone and he told the caller who was teaching daughter and she said your dad is dead. And he referred to himself as I'm the prowler. Wow. Right?

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, he's crazy.

[Woody Overton]

Well, not quite done yet. After that, on another rural road, Christopher Burgess ended up being shot by Brian. And the Bryant also turned on the gas and set Christopher Burgess's house on fire. And the he's still on the crime spree, right? Murdering and and he's murdering everybody now. But the police caught up with him and he was jailed for suspicion of committing three murders. By 2008, Bryant confessed his guilt not only for murder, but for burning homes and break ins. His mission guilt came with the sensei that the gig was up, right? Yeah. He said he had faced whatever consequences came along. Well, guess what he this he's a serial killer by the way because you know, more than two people, separate incidents etc and he really wasn't repentant about any of his crimes.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

And later he attempted to maim two correctional officers while he was in prison.

[Cindy Overton]

Geez. I mean, he's just.

[Woody Overton]

Okay. That, of course, made the prosecution's case stronger, and I mean, he clearly couldn't safely be left around other people. He's a animal, so. Well, here comes your favorite part. The defense team.

[Cindy Overton]

No, I just.

[Woody Overton]

The defense team showed through witnesses that Mr. Bryant's upbringing was traumatic and he was sexually abused. Right. Meanwhile, other family members said that Bryant kept asking for psychological help long before the murders. And unfortunately, poor Mr. Bryant never received proper treatment. Yeah, catch me if you can.

[Cindy Overton]

Exactly.

[Woody Overton]

Right up until sentencing, his legal team blamed his violent behavior on deeply rooted psychological issues. Well, guess what? The court decided that the aggravating factors, especially the armed robbery and the killing of Mr. Ticherton with a high degree of cruelty, overrode any of the excuses which it should have. And Bryant was sentenced to be executed. And since then, he's been on death row for almost 20 years. So the. It goes on and on and on. Y'.

[Cindy Overton]

All.

[Woody Overton]

You know about. He used guns and he. He killed people by torture and. And everything else, and he just terrorized the community and everything else.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

And now guess what? I don't know how many times they shoot you. How many people shoot you in a firing squad in South Carolina? Here's an answer from gupstate.com. these five member firing squad in South Carolina will have three law enforcement officers and its firing squad, and all three will have live rounds. While in Utah, at least one of the rifles fire nine, like lethal bullets.

[Cindy Overton]

I guess like you said, each state's different. Because I remember one other state that you said there was three and one would have the live round.

[Woody Overton]

No, I.

[Cindy Overton]

So you wouldn't know.

[Woody Overton]

Always one that you don't know. They give you. They. You get dummy rounds, they'll fire like we use in training. Simunicious is what it's called. And so your shit's going to fire. It's not like.

[Cindy Overton]

That's what I mean.

[Woody Overton]

You get your gun going to go click, and you're like, oh, I was.

[Cindy Overton]

No, yeah, I said it wrong.

[Woody Overton]

But they. Mr. Bryant was a animal. And even after he's locked up, he tries to kill two correctional officers. And Mr. Bryant, he's not going to get nine bullets. And cigarette burns in his eyes and his face. And all the other people he killed, too, on top of that.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah, all the other. And his own family. I mean, because you always say there's not just that one person that is affected.

[Woody Overton]

I'm sure his family members that came forward and testified for him. You know, assholes have people that love.

[Cindy Overton]

Him, too, trying to get him help and.

[Woody Overton]

Yeah, if that's even true, but. Well, whatever. That's defense. There you have it. Bye, bye, Mr. Bryant. And rest in peace to all his victims.

[Cindy Overton]

Yes, for sure.

[Woody Overton]

All right.

[Cindy Overton]

Wow.

[Woody Overton]

What you got? It's time for family matters.

[Cindy Overton]

Around 3:45am on October 18th in Jackson Township, Pennsylvania, law enforcement was dispatched to a residence at the 100 block of Heritage Lane after reports of gunfire outside of a home. So arriving officers found Robert Edward Hagan Jr. Who's 55 years old, fatally wounded in a pickup truck parked in the driveway of the home. And there was a 9 millimeter handgun recovered nearby, and two shell casings were found in the driveway. Investigators say Hagan had been in the truck with a woman identified as the mother of Schumacher Lang's son, Dylan Lang's mother, Angela Langham. The pair had been drinking earlier in the evening and returned to the residence where they remained in the vehicle and engaged in sexual activity. Dylan Lang was 24 and from the same Jackson Township address, and he became aware of the situation. According to the affidavit, he grabbed his 9 millimeter handgun, exited the home, and attempted to confront Hagan through the truck's driver's side window. When the attempt failed because the window was not lowered far enough, Lange smashed the rear driver's side window and fired two shots through the back of the seat, striking Hagan in the upper torso. Hagan tried to reverse the truck out of the driveway, but lost control and it rolled into the front yard. And at that moment, Lang's mother cried out, you shot him. And to which lang responded to 911 dispatchers, I just shot someone in my driveway. I effed up. Lang admitted to investigators that he had seen his mother with Hagan for several days and that his emotions were out of control. So Lange has now been charged with criminal homicide, aggravated assault, and recklessly endangering another person. And he is being arraigned on October 18, and bail was denied. And he's being held in the Cambria County Prison. And there's a preliminary hearing on October 27th.

[Woody Overton]

Crazy. Unstoppable.

[Cindy Overton]

Unstoppable.

[Woody Overton]

Unstoppable. Crime Time on True Crime Time 4. It was pretty good start to our second year. True Crime Time for Right.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

Laying out some good stories. And this one, I can't really decide what category to go under, but some just put it under foreign professionals, y'. All, this is a time of year when everybody's getting packages. Cindy thought I was going to say decorate. Both, but you thought. I saw a look on your face. That's how long we've been together. I can tell what you were going to say, but this is about packages. And I. Every day I come outside and I see more packages. As a matter of fact, I got a package yesterday.

[Cindy Overton]

You got two.

[Woody Overton]

Two packages? Yeah. And, you know, open packages, open boxes, and the. You know, just like, boy, no, Forrest Gump said, like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. I know. All right. It's that time of the year, right? Well, let's go to Kentucky. And they had a lady, she's waiting on a package. Hers wasn't Christmas related. Hers was some medicine. She's waiting.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, gosh. Because it's horrible when you're waiting on medicine. If someone messed up with her, messed with her medicine, that's not good. People are dependent on their medicine.

[Woody Overton]

Hold your horses, Mrs. Okay, okay. I won't say. You're gonna feel stupid.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, my God.

[Woody Overton]

I'm not gonna say that. So she gets her package in, and she's expecting it to be a box full of medicine. She opened it up, and I'm gonna give you three guesses.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, goodness.

[Woody Overton]

What's inside?

[Cindy Overton]

One of the monkeys from Mississippi?

[Woody Overton]

No, wasn't a monkey.

[Cindy Overton]

A syringe?

[Woody Overton]

Nope.

[Cindy Overton]

Candy?

[Woody Overton]

Nope.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay.

[Woody Overton]

Sorry. All right. So she opens it up and she finds. Instead of her medicine, she finds human arms and a number of human fingers on ice.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

What?

[Cindy Overton]

Yes.

[Woody Overton]

The.

[Cindy Overton]

Okay. How big does that have. She's expecting medicine.

[Woody Overton]

I don't know.

[Cindy Overton]

Medicine is she taking?

[Woody Overton]

I have no idea. Maybe she's taking enemas or something. I don't know. But the. Of course, she's shocked AF by the discovery. And she calls 91 1.

[Cindy Overton]

I guess so.

[Woody Overton]

And Scott Daniel, who's the coroner for Christian County, Kentucky, he went to her home and he sees there's definitely human remains, so he retrieves them. That's according to the New York Times, so. It's not funny, Daniel. The coroner took the two arms and four fingers to the local morgue, and on Tuesday, a courier removed the remains, though it's unclear where they were taken. Tulane involved? Maybe. But about a day after receiving the digits, she finally gets her medicine in the mail. But the package, the fingers and arms, was sent from Nashville and was supposed to be delivered to a school or a hospital in the city for surgical training. That's what the coroner told the New York Times the parts inside the package were from four different people. Wow.

[Cindy Overton]

Is that a crime?

[Woody Overton]

I'm pretty sure it's a fucked up professional.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

The. So the courier who delivered the package to the woman who got him has not been identified. And in response to a question about the source of their body parts, Corner said, I didn't ask. He said, I mean, I'd assume, obviously, I think they came from cadavers that had been donated. Yeah, that's what he told the Times. And he said he believes the woman who received the parts did the right thing by calling 911 and reporting the discovery.

[Sponsor/Ad Reader]

And we.

[Woody Overton]

We agree with that. Let's talk about Lopa for a minute. Louisiana. Oregon Procurement Agency. And you know what? I hadn't been closing the shows because I just been forgetting about it with the hashtag just for Bradley, the y', all. This is like a one way off, off, off. And these. This like the. The Halloween candy, urban legend shit that, you know, you got to check for razor blades and poison. And it's been proven there's never been a case of that. Now, these cases, unfortunately, are going to happen from time to time. I don't know. I don't. You know, organ donation still saves lives. Yes, they do use certain things for research and, you know, to try to better people's lives, try to cure shit, try to fix shit. And I'm an organ donor, and I hope you will be, too. And it's really, really easy. Go to. You could be a. You. You don't have to be from Louisiana. No, Lopa will help you become an organ donor. Go to lopa.org you can be a lifer from. Give me a country.

[Cindy Overton]

Zimbabwe.

[Woody Overton]

From zimbabwe. Go to lopa.org take a couple minutes, fill out the questionnaire, and they will get you hooked up to be an organ donor and give the gift of life insight and maybe research and all that good stuff.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

And I've met so many people that are alive today because of the other heroes that became organ donors. And I don't give a what they do with my body. Oh, right.

[Cindy Overton]

Yeah.

[Woody Overton]

So there you have it. You got anything else?

[Cindy Overton]

No.

[Woody Overton]

All right, that being said, when we are going to end this episode True Crime time for Wednesday, November 5th, 2025. This is November 5th.

[Cindy Overton]

Oh, you were asking me? Yes.

[Woody Overton]

November 5th, 2025. And I'm Woody Overton.

[Cindy Overton]

I'm Cindy Overton.

[Woody Overton]

We'll holler at y' all later. Peace.
