Special counsel Jack Smith Is asked 20 00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:23.760 a federal appeals court to reinstate the classified document's case 21 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:27.599 against former President Trump. A federal judge throughout the case 22 00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:31.840 last month, ruling that Smith's appointment as special council was unconstitutional. 23 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.280 We're going to find out more about this, what's next, 24 00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:37.560 whether it could affect the election, with ABC's Peter Harralumbus. 25 00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:41.120 In just a couple of minutes, the Dow Jones Industrial 26 00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.840 Average has hit a record high, closing up sixty five 27 00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:47.560 points yesterday at forty four hundred and twenty. It's the 28 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.079 first record since a huge drop of more than a 29 00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:52.480 thousand points in a single day earlier this month that 30 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:55.560 sparked fears of a recession. Speaking of money, we're gonna 31 00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:57.879 learn how to money with Joel Larsgard Love talking to 32 00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:00.719 Julia always has such great advice for us.

Also, the rules for how 36 00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:17.479 buyers and sellers pay real estate commissions in California have changed, 37 00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.159 and it's a big confusing mess. So we've got real 38 00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:23.240 estate agent Justin Warsham coming in to help us make 39 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:25.479 sense of it. Let's get started with some of the 40 00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:28.039 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 41 00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:31.280 At least two people have been arrested in Compton in 42 00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:34.759 connection with a home invasion in Sherman Oaks, PO least 43 00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:37.360 say a woman was in the shower last night when 44 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.039 three men broke into her home. It's not clear what 45 00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:43.960 was taken. The woman wasn't hurt. Undercover investigators had apparently 46 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.759 already been tracking the thieves, and an LAPD helicopter helped 47 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.560 follow them to a neighborhood in Compton, where they were 48 00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:54.479 picked up. LA Metro has recorded its twentieth straight month 49 00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:55.759 of ridership growth. 50 00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:59.439 July's numbers show weekday ridership climbing back to pre pandemic levels. 51 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.439 It's about e t percent there. Metro Senior director Joseph 52 00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:05.639 Forgerini says the broader economy's return after the height of 53 00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:08.560 the pandemic is reflected on local buses and trains. 54 00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:10.960 The trend has continued into this calendar year. 55 00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:14.520 I think we're just really en throying a good critavery 56 00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.879 of people returning to using transit. 57 00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:21.080 Metro also says events around LA near train and bus 58 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:24.840 stops also help with July's gains in downtown La Michael 59 00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:26.199 Monks KFI News. 60 00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:30.360 Orange County Supervisor Katrina Foley has called on fellow supervisor 61 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.840 Andrew Doe to resign over allegations that his daughter was 62 00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:37.879 involved in COVID nineteen relief funds fraud. Foley is also 63 00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.800 calling on the Attorney General's office to remove Dough from 64 00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:44.159 office if he won't step down. Orange County Board chairman 65 00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.439 Don Wagners's he plans to ask supervisors to remove Dough 66 00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:51.520 from committee assignments. A former Orange County sheriff sergeant says 67 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:55.000 all families should keep narcan in their homes to help 68 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.240 save lives during opioid overdoses. 69 00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.400 Fatal drug overdoses have dropped by about three percent over 70 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.680 the last two years, and experts say that maybe because 71 00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.240 of life saving medication the lock zone. Retired sheriff Sergeant 72 00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:09.360 Clay Cranford says parents should start having conversations with their 73 00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:10.080 kids earlier. 74 00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:14.879 Most counterfeit prescription drugs contained fentanyl, and the DEA says 75 00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.040 of the ones that do sixty percent heavy lethal dose. 76 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:20.079 He says teens can get in a lock zone without 77 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.160 a prescription at most pharmacies. The La County Department of 78 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:26.319 Public Health says three ninety two people died from fent 79 00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:30.600 and all overdoses in the county last year. Chris Adler KFI. 80 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.399 News, let's say good morning to ABC's Peter HARALUMBUSI Hi. 81 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.399 Peter, Hey, good morning Amy. 82 00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:38.079 Thanks for having me. 83 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.040 Hey, I was just thinking we haven't talked to you 84 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:45.120 since you were sitting in a courtroom every day for 85 00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:48.439 former President Trump's trial in New York. 86 00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:50.519 Yeah, things have changed. 87 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:54.560 It's been surprisingly slow summer on Donald Trump's legal front, but. 88 00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.879 It's heating up again because Special Counsel Jack Smith is 89 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:05.720 appealing federal judge's dismissal of the classified documents case against Trumps. 90 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:09.600 So let's go back into a quick refresher course. What 91 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.839 was the case and what was the argument to dismiss. 92 00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.319 Sure, So this case came up a little bit more 93 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.560 than a year ago. Prosecutors charged the former president with 94 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:23.040 violations of the Espionage Act, an obstruction of justice, alleging 95 00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:26.480 that he mishandled classified documents after we left the White House, 96 00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.839 and then he got in the way of an investigation 97 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:32.959 when officials tried to retrieve those documents. The former president 98 00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:35.199 faced kind of a litany of charges in that case, 99 00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.519 but kind of got dealt a good hand with the 100 00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.639 judge in that case, Eileen Cannon, who kind of delayed 101 00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.639 the proceedings, took up argument on kind of frivolous issues 102 00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:48.879 brought up by Trump's team, and eventually throughout the case. 103 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:51.160 She did that on the first day of the RNC 104 00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:54.000 back in July, kind of a surprise move for everyone, 105 00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:58.279 bucking kind of fifty years of legal precedent by finding 106 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:01.800 that special counsel Jack Smith didn't actually have the right 107 00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:04.399 to bring the case. She didn't really roll on the merits, 108 00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:06.879 just the fact that Smith himself didn't have the authority 109 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:07.920 to bring in Okay. 110 00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.040 So I didn't say She didn't say he didn't do 111 00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:14.399 anything wrong. She said Jack Smith really shouldn't have been 112 00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:15.920 the special counsel on the case. 113 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:17.439 That's exactly right. 114 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:19.560 It was all about Jack Smith and nothing about Trump 115 00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:20.759 in that order. 116 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:22.839 Okay. So now Jack Smith is back and he's saying 117 00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:25.480 hold on and he's appealing the judge's ruling. 118 00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:28.879 That's right. So they're trying to revive the charges. They've 119 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.360 asked the Atlanta based US Court of Appeals for the 120 00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:36.439 Eleventh Circle to reverse Cannon's decision. And basically allow those 121 00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:38.839 charges to continue. It's going to be a lengthy process. 122 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:43.079 Trump's replies. Doing thirty days, they'll likely be oral arguments, 123 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:47.000 and Trump's team, if they'd like, could probably appeal this 124 00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.600 all the way up to the Supreme Court, even when 125 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.199 the Court of Appeals makes their final decision. 126 00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:56.160 Well, you just answered my last two my last two questions, 127 00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:58.000 because I was going to ask if it could end 128 00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:01.519 up before the Supreme Court, which which it could eventually 129 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:06.680 if they accepted it. But no decision before the election, Right, 130 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:07.600 it's going to be a while. 131 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:09.759 Yeah, it's going to be a while. There's certainly no 132 00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:12.480 chance this case goes to trial before the election. It 133 00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:14.959 will probably probably won't even see a decision from the 134 00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:17.120 Court of Appeals before the election, and then of course 135 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.759 the great unkown of the Supreme Court. Notably, there was 136 00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:24.800 no actually mention of recusing Judge Cannon, which was something 137 00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:28.040 that was debated kind of in the weeks preceding this appeal, 138 00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:31.680 given the fact that if the DJ seriously wants this 139 00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:34.720 case to go forward, it seems unlikely with that judge 140 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:35.560 overseeing the case. 141 00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:40.120 Okay, and so what's next. In thirty days, they respond 142 00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:41.360 to the appeal. 143 00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:45.040 Yeah, So in thirty days, Trump's team will respond to 144 00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:47.600 this motion, and then there'll be another response from Jack 145 00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.079 Smith's team, and then at some point there'll be oral 146 00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:53.920 argument where the panel of judges will kind of ask 147 00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:56.600 some questions the judge to the lawyers for both. 148 00:07:56.439 --> 00:08:00.879 Sides, okay, And if the panel then if they said, okay, 149 00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.920 we accept this appeal, would it go back down to 150 00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:07.959 the judge or would they try it there? No, they 151 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.000 wouldn't try it at the appeals level. Would it go 152 00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:11.040 back down to the judge? 153 00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:14.160 It gets complicated at that point because, on one hand, 154 00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:17.000 if this appeal is if this decision from Judge Cannon 155 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:20.560 is reversed, the case does get handed back down to 156 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.240 the Southern District of Florida and Judge Cannon. Technically, unless 157 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.399 Jack Smith's team separately asks for the judge to be accused. 158 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.279 Trump's team could also appeal that decision and ask the 159 00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:35.720 Supreme Court or the entire Court of Appeals and in 160 00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.840 bond hearing to reconsider the issue. So it's really hard 161 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:42.720 to say what happens next. Even if this decision gets 162 00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.080 reversed by the Court of Appeals. 163 00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:48.600 Okay, then here's another one Peter, Could the appeals Court say, Okay, 164 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:51.679 we're going to overturn that and let it go back 165 00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:54.240 down to the courts. But Jack Smith, because you're you 166 00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:57.000 really can't be on this case, somebody else has to 167 00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:58.519 try it. Could they do that? 168 00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:03.240 They could in on this question of Jack Smith's constitutionality 169 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:06.200 in a way. By kind of dismissing this case on 170 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.879 the grounds of Jack Smith's appointment, Judge Cannon theoretically has 171 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:11.679 opened a bit of a can of worms here that 172 00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:16.720 the court could kind of dive into and question his authority. 173 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:20.039 Most legal experts, though, seem to think that this tradition 174 00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:23.399 of appointing special councils is well founded in the law 175 00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:27.440 and has been put into practice basically for over fifty years. 176 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:30.440 So while it's unlikely, it's not outside of the realm 177 00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:34.279 of possibility that we see continued scrutiny on Jack Smith's appointment. 178 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:37.960 Okay, never a dull moment in Trump world. Thanks for 179 00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:41.039 helping us sort it out, Peter Hower, Olumbus, appreciate your 180 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:42.240 time and your insight. 181 00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:44.480 Thanks as always, Amy, I appreciate. 182 00:09:44.200 --> 00:09:46.200 It all right, talk to you soon. Let's get back 183 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:47.799 to some of the stories coming out of the KFI 184 00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:51.000 twenty four hour newsroom.

That means that all 236 00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:35.600 the serial numbers are the same, so like one one 237 00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:37.799 one one one one is worth as much as two 238 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.360 thousand dollars. Only about one in eleven million bills with 239 00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:45.159 solid serial numbers are in circulation.

Fees have hit an all time high. 262 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:02.080 Right now, let's say good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan, 263 00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:06.519 Jim Merglaries are out of control, more and more brazen. 264 00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:09.519 We just had a big home invasion in Sherman Oaks overnight. 265 00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.480 They luckily caught a couple of guys, but residents are 266 00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:16.440 doing something to try to hide themselves from criminals. 267 00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:18.519 Now, yeah, and this is something I actually saw that 268 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:21.320 came out of southern California, where you've had all sorts 269 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:24.879 of problems or at least higher profile burglaries and home invasions, 270 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:28.200 break ins like that. People what they're doing. The suspicion 271 00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.559 a means that some folks, some burglars and then criminals 272 00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:35.080 are going online. They're going to Google maps. They're checking 273 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:38.120 out various neighborhoods by you know, dropping the little man 274 00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:41.919 down on the street and cruising through neighborhoods virtually and 275 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:45.600 checking out see what houses are there, maybe see what 276 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:47.480 kind of car you have in front of your house, 277 00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.840 and getting a very clear, crystal clear image of what's 278 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:53.320 out there. You know, the license plates are blurred out. 279 00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:54.720 And if you happen to be in the front yard 280 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:56.960 picking up your newspaper or something, your face is blurred 281 00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:59.519 out too. You've seeing the Google car go by right 282 00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.960 and so. But people are going online now, they're going 283 00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:07.200 to Google Maps. They are finding their own homes and 284 00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:11.240 blurring them. And it's a very simple process to go 285 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.480 and go in there and blur out the image of 286 00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:15.679 off your car. You know, you know your maserati is 287 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:19.320 sitting there. You don't want criminals to see that, or 288 00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:22.480 your mansion, or at least your address. You can blur 289 00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:24.360 out your address if you want to, just that small 290 00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.639 chunk of it. So it's an easy process, and I'll 291 00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:29.120 tell you how you to do it if you want to. 292 00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:31.440 Hear okay, I do okay. 293 00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:33.840 So you find your house on Google Maps, on a 294 00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.399 Google Earth US street view, and you click on the 295 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:41.000 button there. It's in the upper left. I think it 296 00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:43.840 says report a problem up a right or lower right. 297 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.879 And once you're a reporter problem, it gives the option 298 00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:52.000 to blur out any particular part of that image, whether 299 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.279 it's the house or the car, whatever it is that 300 00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:57.039 you've framed up in the picture. You do have to 301 00:15:57.080 --> 00:15:59.720 certify and promise there that it is your house, that 302 00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:02.759 it's somebody else's house that you're trying to do this too, 303 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:06.120 and then there's a review process and then Google will 304 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:09.600 blur it. It'll blur that image right there, so people 305 00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:12.559 cruising through the neighborhood then checking it out, we'll see 306 00:16:13.240 --> 00:16:17.080 a fuzzy image there as they're virtually cruising down your street. 307 00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:20.240 Okay, So Jim, it doesn't happen instantaneously. You basically have 308 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:22.039 to apply to have it done. Because I was just 309 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:24.240 going to ask you, well, couldn't I just go on 310 00:16:24.279 --> 00:16:26.720 to some website start blurring people's houses. 311 00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:29.879 Sure. Yeah, And that's why Google has that process. They're 312 00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:32.200 going to check out I assume, one way or another 313 00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:35.440 to show that you're the registered property owner there at 314 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.679 that particular place, and then they'll go ahead and blur. 315 00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:38.919 It for you. 316 00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:41.200 But I mean, it's just and there's no real evidence 317 00:16:41.240 --> 00:16:44.440 that criminals are cruising neighborhoods virtually and checking them out 318 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:49.200 on Google Maps and street view. But the police say 319 00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.120 that whatever we can do to protect yourself, it's just 320 00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:54.919 another step, same as the sign in front of your 321 00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:57.960 house that says I have an alarm system or there's 322 00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:00.799 a barracuda loose in the house, something like that. 323 00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:03.399 You know, whatever, you can do it. 324 00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:05.880 It's another step toward protecting yourself. 325 00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:08.960 Okay. And you said that it started in LA. Is 326 00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:10.599 it spreading now across the country. 327 00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:13.720 Well, I think the trend started in LA. For starting 328 00:17:13.720 --> 00:17:16.759 in southern California because of break ins and things there. 329 00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:19.079 That's it seems to be where it's most predominant. But 330 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:22.119 it's been available everywhere, I think for as long as 331 00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:24.319 street view has been around. 332 00:17:24.799 --> 00:17:27.480 Okay, I didn't know that. Okay, So here's here's me 333 00:17:27.559 --> 00:17:28.720 playing Devil's advocate. 334 00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:29.279 Go ahead. 335 00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:33.680 Could a blurred picture actually entice burglars and invaders? 336 00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:36.160 Sure it could. Or let's say you want to sell 337 00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:39.279 your house someday and home shoppers cruising down you know, 338 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:42.039 then I did that buying house. You know, you virtually 339 00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:44.359 go down the street. Yeah that's nice. Nice, and you know, 340 00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:48.559 I'm pretty looking at houses for sale, and so yeah, 341 00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:51.119 there is a potential downside to it, and it may 342 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.960 attract people who say, well, if that's a mansariety that's 343 00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:56.279 blurred out there in front of Amy's house, you know, 344 00:17:57.160 --> 00:17:59.440 Could it do that? Sure it could. I mean, there's 345 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:01.839 no this is all anecdotal anyone. I don't think there's 346 00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:06.880 hard evidence to suggest that burglars are doing this or 347 00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:08.440 that this is going to help. But it is just 348 00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:10.640 one more thing. You'd also get an app on your 349 00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.160 phone that says that tells you about crimes or crime 350 00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:17.359 trends in your neighborhood or your town, and there's another 351 00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:19.279 way to do that. I think the main thing, though 352 00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:22.759 the police sector suggesting Amy is putting down the phone, 353 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:27.000 putting away the laptop there, going outside, meeting your neighbors right, 354 00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:29.960 knock on the door and say, hey, I'm Amy, I 355 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:31.920 live next door. If I'm out of town, could you 356 00:18:31.960 --> 00:18:33.480 watch the place. I'll do the same for you and 357 00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:35.319 build a relationship with your neighbors. 358 00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:38.359 I think that that is a really good idea because 359 00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.039 nosy neighbors are good. I used to live next to 360 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:43.680 somebody who she knew everything going on in the neighborhood, 361 00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:45.400 and some of the neighbors would complain about it, and 362 00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:47.400 I'm like, no, no, it's a good thing because if 363 00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:50.640 something is awry, she's going to be the first one 364 00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:51.920 to go, h excuse me. 365 00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:54.480 Yeah, we'll call the cops or something. Yeah. 366 00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:56.880 Absolutely, Yeah.
