Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham, the Great America. Welcome this glorious Monday afternoon
Speaker 1: the Tri State. The first time since nineteen eighty four,
Speaker 1: or sought. Mike McConnell's not been here. And I listened
Speaker 1: this morning to Tom Brenneman beginning at five oh seven am.
Speaker 1: And we have more than a capable sub Mike. I
Speaker 1: say all, Hail Mike, Tom Brenneman, get the job done.
Speaker 1: Let's continue once again. Flooding is all over the Tri State,
Speaker 1: from Cincinnati to Covington, from New Richmond to Aurora, all
Speaker 1: places in between. And Reds Baseball kicks off tonight in
Speaker 1: the Left coast, starting about eight forty five, first pitch
Speaker 1: about nine to forty five. As you know, the Reds
Speaker 1: do very well on the West coast. Bat Tony Benner
Speaker 1: told me when we were at the Holy Grail. It's
Speaker 1: critical critical this year that the red start off strong
Speaker 1: with a new manager, a new attitude. They're three and
Speaker 1: seven and by May first, according to the record book,
Speaker 1: one time in the last eleven seasons they've had a
Speaker 1: winning record on May first time to do so. They're
Speaker 1: abtle to get busy against coming up San Francisco and
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh and Seattle and Baltimore. They should be easy,
Speaker 1: and then the New York Yankees, et cetera should be
Speaker 1: no problem.
Speaker 2: But until then, Adam Byrd's date rep but more or.
Speaker 1: Less now, as a father and a husband and a
Speaker 1: resident of New Richmond, Ohio, welcome to the Bill Cunningham
Speaker 1: Show and Adam Bird. As we sit here this Monday
Speaker 1: afternoon in the tries day, can you describe the circumstances
Speaker 1: right now in downtown New Richmond, the home of the Lions.
Speaker 3: Sure, Bill, thanks for letting me be on and describe
Speaker 3: what's going on in my hometown. And So, the river
Speaker 3: is up, and it's at sixty around sixty and a
Speaker 3: half feet, and that is the forecasted crest by the
Speaker 3: National Weather Service. So we're expecting it to start going
Speaker 3: down here later today. And so businesses along front streets
Speaker 3: they're definitely closed. The school is on a remote learning day.
Speaker 3: And you know, it's a resilient community that keeps an
Speaker 3: eye on the river at all times.
Speaker 1: The thing is, I love the front Street grill which
Speaker 1: is right there and the main drag, and I love
Speaker 1: going in there get a little pork chops and some
Speaker 1: bean soup.
Speaker 2: It's wonderful.
Speaker 1: Describe all those businesses in New Richmond on the front
Speaker 1: street there right by the Ohio River. You walk out
Speaker 1: the front door and there's the river. Describe what's happening
Speaker 1: there as we speak.
Speaker 3: Well, well, Billy, I haven't been able to get up there.
Speaker 3: You cannot get up there unless you're the business owner
Speaker 3: or unless you own property up there. So the police
Speaker 3: have had that area blocked off, and so no one
Speaker 3: should be in that area for sight seeing. No one
Speaker 3: should be there unless they live there or there to help.
Speaker 3: And so you know, right now all of those businesses
Speaker 3: are closed along front Street, and half the village does
Speaker 3: have water in them. But I've communicated with the mayor,
Speaker 3: Glenn Ewing, and you know, I've also been in contact
Speaker 3: with the governor over this. He's aware of what's going
Speaker 3: on along the river and so he's keeping an eye
Speaker 3: on it very closely, and I appreciate his care and
Speaker 3: concern about villages and cities along the river.
Speaker 1: I watch some of the media coverage over the weekend,
Speaker 1: and it appears there was a lot of sweat labor
Speaker 1: that had to occur those businesses, which are always fragile.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine you can get flood insurance when flooding
Speaker 1: is a regular two or three time a decade event.
Speaker 1: So what happened this weekend when a lot of business owners,
Speaker 1: especially older women, needed help moving things out, putting them
Speaker 1: in trucks and moving a higher ground.
Speaker 2: What occurred?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, this is a great thing about our community, Billy.
Speaker 3: The schools, New Richmond Schools sent athletes, and we have
Speaker 3: a tradition of being very helpful to each other. New
Speaker 3: Richmond Schools sent athletes to help businesses, to help the
Speaker 3: VFW and residents, and very thankful for young people who
Speaker 3: are willing to come and serve. And I think it's
Speaker 3: a great characteristic to get later in life. We all
Speaker 3: should be serving, loving, caring for each other. And so,
Speaker 3: you know, pulling together with each other is a part
Speaker 3: of life that I think is exhibited in New Richmond. Know.
Speaker 1: And the pool stage is about twenty six or twenty
Speaker 1: seven feet. When I come out of the front street cafe,
Speaker 1: I walk up to the little flood wall which is
Speaker 1: about three feet. I put my foot up in there
Speaker 1: and I look at the high River and it seems
Speaker 1: like it's so low, Like in July, and August. The
Speaker 1: pool stage might be twenty five twenty six feet, so
Speaker 1: you can imagine when the river is flowing at sixty
Speaker 1: one feet, it's more than double the height of the
Speaker 1: High River. And then what comes into your business is
Speaker 1: things you don't want into your business. You always have
Speaker 1: drywall problem, you have plumbing problem, electrical problems. And when
Speaker 1: these things happen, you were there a few years ago
Speaker 1: when they had another serious flood. How long does it
Speaker 1: take for these businesses to recover? I would imagine there
Speaker 1: will be several weeks. And I want to coordinate efforts
Speaker 1: among the tri state residents to flood those businesses with business.
Speaker 1: And so this is coming out a particularly bad time,
Speaker 1: which is in April. They want to get ready for
Speaker 1: the season which is now May, June, July, and August.
Speaker 1: But this is going to be an event that may
Speaker 1: take several weeks.
Speaker 3: Correct, absolutely, and people should not be coming to New
Speaker 3: Richmond as the floodwaters go down. They shouldn't be coming
Speaker 3: unless they mean to help. They don't need people there,
Speaker 3: and so yes, it will take several weeks to recover.
Speaker 3: There's business owners and the volunteers that are there to
Speaker 3: help will have to be spraying down walls, spraying down
Speaker 3: floors as the water recedes, to make sure that there's
Speaker 3: no huge layers of mud there. But you know, you
Speaker 3: talk about how quickly it came up Billy. Just five
Speaker 3: days ago, it was at about thirty feet. The Ohio
Speaker 3: River was at thirty feet on April the third, and
Speaker 3: here we are on April the seventh, and it climbed
Speaker 3: thirty feet in just a couple of days. It's a crazy,
Speaker 3: crazy amount of water that we've gotten lately. And you
Speaker 3: know that's why people are always watching the river who
Speaker 3: live live around places like New Rishmond.
Speaker 1: As far as the insurance coverage, as Tony Bender, my producer, said,
Speaker 1: we always have flood insurance, and I'm trying to tell
Speaker 1: Tony the flood insurance is extremely expensive. You just can't
Speaker 1: you sign up for Let's pay a small premium. I
Speaker 1: would imagine most businesses in the Richmond can't get flood
Speaker 1: insurance because they generally operate on small margins.
Speaker 2: Anyway, am I right about that?
Speaker 3: I can't speak specifically, but I think you're right. It's
Speaker 3: very expensive if you can get it, and when you're
Speaker 3: living only or your business is just a couple of
Speaker 3: feet from the river. You're probably not going to be
Speaker 3: able to get that. So when the floodwaters go down,
Speaker 3: Billy and they get cleaned up and they're ready to
Speaker 3: roll again, you do need to go down there. And
Speaker 3: we need to patronize those businesses, give them support, give
Speaker 3: them love, give them encouragement, and make sure that they
Speaker 3: know we appreciate.
Speaker 2: Them all right now.
Speaker 1: Secondly, you're in leadership of the house in Columbus and
Speaker 1: they buy annual budgets coming up. A lot of people
Speaker 1: are going thither and fro. My sister's on the library boards.
Speaker 1: He wants library funding. We have fentanyl crises, which is lessening.
Speaker 1: By the way, the seizures at the border, if that's
Speaker 1: an indication how many are getting over because who knows,
Speaker 1: seizure tend to reflect about ten to twenty percent of
Speaker 1: the total are down by more than sixty percent, So
Speaker 1: that's a positive. So what's new in the by annual
Speaker 1: budget and Columbus that people need to be.
Speaker 3: Aware of, sure, Billy, lot there to look at. And
Speaker 3: so school funding. We're planning on sending an extra five
Speaker 3: hundred over the two years, an extra five hundred million
Speaker 3: dollars to our public schools and so we definitely want
Speaker 3: to support them, and as far as library funding goes,
Speaker 3: it is not our intent to send them less money
Speaker 3: next year. Bill. There was a little bit of a
Speaker 3: miscommunication over the last couple of days. We're not going
Speaker 3: to send them less money, but we are going to
Speaker 3: delink the library funding from the general revenue fund. We're
Speaker 3: going to set that line item now and in the future,
Speaker 3: and so that that is going to cost some people concerned,
Speaker 3: but it's not our intent to defund them. There's issues
Speaker 3: when it comes to Medicaid. We're making some changes there.
Speaker 3: So we're going to find a lot find out a lot.
Speaker 3: This week. We have Finance Committee tomorrow morning. People will
Speaker 3: be able to see what's in that bill, and we
Speaker 3: plan to vote a budget out on Wednesday of this week.
Speaker 1: Bill school vouchers. What about school voucher program? A lot
Speaker 1: of people and when they have their kids in failing
Speaker 1: public schools, want to get out and kind of put
Speaker 1: them in a different circumstances, give them opportunity to succeed.
Speaker 1: In Hamilton County, we had a terrible closure of Dones
Speaker 1: Community High School, which is where the kids that could
Speaker 1: not make it at us or Achin or West High
Speaker 1: or Woodward would put in done community school to give
Speaker 1: them an opportunity at getting a high school diploma. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure the quality of education at DONES. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's quite the same as Deer Park or Santax
Speaker 1: High School. But nonetheless, what is the status of school
Speaker 1: vouchers where moms and desk can take the kids out
Speaker 1: of failing public schools and put them in an approxrial
Speaker 1: school to some other situation.
Speaker 3: Sure Bill that the voucher program is in place, It's
Speaker 3: going to stay in place. Those who have accessed it
Speaker 3: in the past will be able to access it in
Speaker 3: in the future. We are making some changes to homeschooling.
Speaker 3: I believe that instead of getting a tax credit at
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty dollars per child I'm sorry, per family,
Speaker 3: You're going to get two hundred and fifty dollars tax
Speaker 3: credit per child now, so you can do that. You're
Speaker 3: going to be able to There may be a little
Speaker 3: bit of an expansion with educational savings accounts for the
Speaker 3: non public, non chartered schools. That'll be a new feature
Speaker 3: in the budget. And so we believe, and a workforce
Speaker 3: productivity and making sure that we're producing people who are
Speaker 3: ready to help businesses grow. And education is a big
Speaker 3: part of that. So that's why we're funding public schools,
Speaker 3: we're funding private schools, we're funding the non public, non
Speaker 3: charter schools, and we're making sure that those who are
Speaker 3: homeschooling have the ability to do that.
Speaker 1: When I had on Vivek Ramaswami and David Yos those
Speaker 1: two are going to butt heads to become the next governor.
Speaker 1: Likely whoever wins the Republican primary and about a year
Speaker 1: is going to be the next governor. He talks about
Speaker 1: getting rid of the state income text. First of all,
Speaker 1: as Adam Bird made a pick between Ramaswami and David Yost.
Speaker 1: And secondly, what is the status of elimiting the state
Speaker 1: income text?
Speaker 3: Well, this is this is a difficult call because Dave
Speaker 3: Yost is a good man, he's a he's a conservative,
Speaker 3: he's got a conservative track record for Bake Rama Swam.
Speaker 3: He's been endorsed by President Trump, he's been endorsed by
Speaker 3: Bernie Marino, and and so I like both of these
Speaker 3: men a lot. And so we're going to continue to
Speaker 3: watch that as time goes on. What was the second question.
Speaker 1: Second question, Well, first of all, who would you vote
Speaker 1: for the primary was today? Would you vote for Yost
Speaker 1: or Ramaswami.
Speaker 3: I'm probably going to vote for for Ramaswamy, but I
Speaker 3: like Dave Jost too, And uh, it's a tough call
Speaker 3: because these are both good people, good men that care
Speaker 3: about Ohio, care about our country, concern care about conservative values,
Speaker 3: and and so that's that's the kind of people that
Speaker 3: I want leading our state.
Speaker 1: As far as the state income tax, one of the
Speaker 1: things Ramaswami wants to do is what Indiana and other
Speaker 1: states have done, I think about seventeen have done it,
Speaker 1: which is to eliminate the state income tax. If so,
Speaker 1: that's a great idea. People say, yay, it sounds good,
Speaker 1: eliminate it. But then how do you substitute all the money,
Speaker 1: the billions of dollars that come in number one on
Speaker 1: you in favor of eliminating the state income tax? And
Speaker 1: if so, where would you get the resources to take
Speaker 1: its place.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have continued to flatten and lower the income
Speaker 3: tax over the last several General assemblies, and the budget
Speaker 3: proposal that we're going to come up with tomorrow and
Speaker 3: vote on Wednesday is not going to include an income
Speaker 3: tax reduction. Now, if we do that, though, you look
Speaker 3: at the states that have done that, like Tennessee, Texas,
Speaker 3: and Florida, they have way higher sales taxes to compensate
Speaker 3: for that. And they all have high tourism in those states,
Speaker 3: and so they're able to balance their budget on the
Speaker 3: backs of tourists and sales taxes. And so if we
Speaker 3: were to do that, we would, I believe, have to
Speaker 3: make for it with a higher sales stat I'm not
Speaker 3: opposed to that. But we also have the issue of
Speaker 3: property taxes. Build they're out of control right now, property taxes,
Speaker 3: and so if you're going to provide relief to those
Speaker 3: property tax payers, we're going to have to find a
Speaker 3: way to continue to do that. And so if you're
Speaker 3: going to support libraries and parks and schools and everything
Speaker 3: else that in county government, that's right now done through
Speaker 3: property taxes, and that is real relief that's needed. And
Speaker 3: I never hear a single person complain about their income
Speaker 3: tax bill, but I do hear them complain about property
Speaker 3: tax and that's going to be a first priority for
Speaker 3: us right now.
Speaker 1: I think Ohio's income tax is about two point five percent.
Speaker 1: It's not exactly confiscatory, but what is is property taxes.
Speaker 2: I like him.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's your idea, might have been someone else's that
Speaker 1: if you make less than fifty thousand dollars a year
Speaker 1: and your home is worth less than five hundred thousand
Speaker 1: dollars a year, there's property tax relief.
Speaker 2: Do are you in favor of that?
Speaker 3: I am in favor of property Actually, the specifics of
Speaker 3: that need to be worked out, and committee we've got
Speaker 3: to talk about it. We've got to let the people
Speaker 3: that are the sharp financial folks take a look at that.
Speaker 3: But I don't think anybody could have predicted the wild
Speaker 3: property valuation spikes that have occurred in our state that
Speaker 3: have caused property taxes to go up. And we have
Speaker 3: to be able to deal with that, and maybe, you know,
Speaker 3: maybe a bill that's as simple as not allowing your
Speaker 3: property taxes to go up higher than the rate of inflation.
Speaker 3: There's been a lot of ideas out there, and right
Speaker 3: now we've got about six or seven property tax bills
Speaker 3: that have been introduced, and I suspect at least two
Speaker 3: or three of them will make it to the governor's
Speaker 3: death sometime in the next six months now.
Speaker 2: Let's do this.
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens, and the budget becomes effective when
Speaker 1: June thirtieth July first, is that correct?
Speaker 3: We have to constitutionally have something to the Governor's deat
Speaker 3: by the end of June. And so after we pass
Speaker 3: this budget on Wednesday, BIL, it goes over to the Senate.
Speaker 3: They're going to add to it, they're going to subtract
Speaker 3: from it, they're going to chew it up, they're gonna
Speaker 3: whatever they want to do to it. And then in
Speaker 3: June the Senate in the House, the two different versions
Speaker 3: will have to get together with them and a conference
Speaker 3: committee and agree to uh to whatever we're going to
Speaker 3: agree to before we send it to the governor. So
Speaker 3: there's a lot left in this process.
Speaker 1: Lastly, Adam Byrd, for those in and around New Richmond,
Speaker 1: your message is today to do what this afternoon?
Speaker 2: Number one? Stay away, is that correct? And don't be
Speaker 2: a lucky loon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't. We don't need anybody coming around. The
Speaker 3: police are there. They're not going to let you into
Speaker 3: the village unless you're a resident, unless you're there to help,
Speaker 3: unless you're a business owner. And so you know the
Speaker 3: the crest I think the forecasted crest is sometime in
Speaker 3: the next hour or two it'll start going down, but
Speaker 3: it's it's not forecast to go down quickly. It's going
Speaker 3: to go down slowly. And and so you know, if
Speaker 3: if you really have a heart to serve and a
Speaker 3: heart to help, you know, I would get a hold
Speaker 3: of somebody and and talk about how how is the
Speaker 3: best way to serve those businesses and the VFW and
Speaker 3: other organizations along Front Street and find out how you
Speaker 3: can help them when it's cleanup time. But cleanup time
Speaker 3: won't come today, and it won't come tomorrow because the
Speaker 3: river's going down slowly. It'll come, you know, four or
Speaker 3: five days from now.
Speaker 1: Is the flood up As far as the Boys and
Speaker 1: Girls Club is that I said, like one hundred yards
Speaker 1: into the village or longer?
Speaker 2: Do you know at this point, well.
Speaker 3: It creeps around. It comes up from the river, but
Speaker 3: it also creeps up from the backside because there are
Speaker 3: lower parts of the village that are actually not close
Speaker 3: to the river. And so you know, it is getting
Speaker 3: close to the Highway fifty two, but it's not going
Speaker 3: Remember in nineteen ninety seven when it got to sixty
Speaker 3: four and a half feet. It was actually over the
Speaker 3: four lane highway Highway fifty two there and it's not
Speaker 3: going to get close to that, but yeah, it's out
Speaker 3: of heights right now.
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
Speaker 1: Representative Adam Byrd and the leadership of the House, thanks
Speaker 1: for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And sometime this summer,
Speaker 1: let's have a pork chop at the Front Street to Cafe.
Speaker 2: What do you say?
Speaker 3: I will, I will be there happily, Bill will join
Speaker 3: you together. And there's some great businesses there like the
Speaker 3: Green Kayak and yeah, and the Front Street Cafe and
Speaker 3: and so love, love love meeting you there. Let's do it.
Speaker 1: It's beautiful and New Richmond in the summertime. Let's continue
Speaker 1: with more Adam, Adam Bird, are you related to Larry Bird?
Speaker 1: Tony Benner wanted to know. He heard a rumor that
Speaker 1: maybe you were related to Larry Bird. Is that true?
Speaker 3: Well, you know Larry Bird. He's a handsome man, so
Speaker 3: maybe I am. I don't know.
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. But good luck to all the
Speaker 1: folks in New Richmond. Also Auror at Covington, et cetera.
Speaker 1: And Adam Bird, once again, thanks for coming on the
Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham Show this Monday afternoon.
Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Thank you Bill.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more news is coming up and more
Speaker 1: at your home of the Reds and Bengals. The markets
Speaker 1: are recovering as we speak, a little bit of an announcement.
Speaker 1: The Trumpster said there might be a ninety day window
Speaker 1: here to negotiate. All of a sudden hold up on
Speaker 1: that car. Wise gentlemen, right there, all of a sudden.
Speaker 1: Trump is not the fool we think he is, or
Speaker 1: at least you think he is. A news radio seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW. All right, Dave Keaton hit the music. Don't
Speaker 1: care much for it, but it's music set up to
Speaker 1: rest of today's big show. After one o'clock today will
Speaker 1: be the new mayor of Covington, my hometown, born on
Speaker 1: Saint Ees Hospital, as I was. And that's Mayor Ron Washington.
Speaker 1: Not the manager of the Texas Rangers about seven or
Speaker 1: eight years ago, but rather the mayor of Covington. He's
Speaker 1: only been in office about three months. He's tested by fire,
Speaker 1: by ice, and now by flood about what's happening in Covington.
Speaker 1: There's some media reporting that there's been some minor evacuations
Speaker 1: in downtown Covington, So we want to check out with
Speaker 1: the mayor himself and about twenty minutes to say about that.
Speaker 1: And then after two o'clock today we scheduled Hamiley County
Speaker 1: Prosecutor Connie Pillage to be here to talk about her
Speaker 1: decision not to indict a police officer in the shoot
Speaker 1: an I seventy five, And we'll get more of the facts.
Speaker 1: But if the media accounts are accurate, I think it
Speaker 1: was a no brainer to say to a police officer
Speaker 1: at three o'clock in the morning, having been part of
Speaker 1: a chase that began in Westchester, crash your car in
Speaker 1: I seventy five, get out of the vehicle, as the
Speaker 1: media reports, and that he was tased twice according to
Speaker 1: the media, and then he did not respond to that,
Speaker 1: didn't put his hands up. In fact, he had a
Speaker 1: pipe in one hand and made a furtive gesture that
Speaker 1: made the officer think that maybe his life was in
Speaker 1: jeopardy at three o'clock in the morning. Oh, hell's breaking loose.
Speaker 1: Dark And of course, the argument on the other side,
Speaker 1: which I do not buy, is that this particular person
Speaker 1: who was killed because of his own behavior, did not
Speaker 1: speak of the English very well, and maybe he could
Speaker 1: not understand the demands of the officer, the commands to
Speaker 1: drop the pipe and put your hands up, And when
Speaker 1: you involve yourself in serious criminal misbehavior, it might be
Speaker 1: good at some point to understand the consequences thereof even
Speaker 1: though he might have been an immigrant who couldn't speak
Speaker 1: of the English. I'd rather have a live cop go
Speaker 1: home on a split second decision when someone who brought
Speaker 1: that cop to the side of I seventy five at
Speaker 1: three o'clock in the morning, and the CoP's life I
Speaker 1: think was in jeopardy. And so assuming this is the case,
Speaker 1: she's going to Countie. Pillage held a news conference about
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty minutes ago, and she made the right decision.
Speaker 1: As Brian Combs has pointed out, this is the third
Speaker 1: cop shooting in the last ninety days, which is a
Speaker 1: large number, but nonetheless each stands on its own. And
Speaker 1: I can't imagine what the law enforcement community would think
Speaker 1: in Hamlet the county if we had a prosecutor that
Speaker 1: would indict police officers and ruin their lives based upon
Speaker 1: these fact patterns. Every now and then there's a bad shooting,
Speaker 1: it's going to happen. It always has, it always will
Speaker 1: because human behavior often results in negative consequences. But it's
Speaker 1: quite rare, very rare. In fact of the I don't
Speaker 1: know how many millions contacts every day between law enforcement
Speaker 1: and and the community. Millions of contacts. It's a small
Speaker 1: decimal number which are questionable and based upon the facts.
Speaker 1: We're going to get more of the facts, including the
Speaker 1: body camp released at this point. But a Connie Pillot
Speaker 1: will be with you and I at two o'clock today
Speaker 1: to discuss the actual facts as she found them to
Speaker 1: be through a grand jury and also through the various
Speaker 1: body camps, and so we'll get all the facts. Media
Speaker 1: accounts sometimes might be inaccurate. Is it possible, yes, So
Speaker 1: we'll see exactly what happens and why that decision is made.
Speaker 2: After two o'clock.
Speaker 1: After one o'clock is the mayor of Covington, Ron Washington
Speaker 1: to talk about the status of the floodgates are they holding?
Speaker 2: I think the.
Speaker 1: Riverside drive, which are those when you go south on
Speaker 1: the suspension bridge, you look off to the right, there's
Speaker 1: a big floodwall there. Look on the left, there's no floodwall.
Speaker 1: There's those beautiful homes overlooking the Ohio River, and I
Speaker 1: think they may be inaccessible from the front. Maybe from
Speaker 1: the back you can get to them, so that we'll see.
Speaker 1: And allegedly this going to be cresting sometime either by
Speaker 1: two o'clock today or by two o'clock tomorrow, So the
Speaker 1: next twenty four hours, assuming it doesn't rain any more,
Speaker 1: and it looks like it will not rain anymore, we're going
Speaker 1: to be in pretty good shape. But until then this morning,
Speaker 1: of course, I monitor all events simultaneously everywhere. As I
Speaker 1: speak right now, the dal Jones is down. Boy, is
Speaker 1: that accurate? Five thousand points? I'm sorry, that's this year
Speaker 1: this year. It's down five thousand points this year. This year,
Speaker 1: the S and P is down fifteen percent, and the
Speaker 1: NASTAC composite is down twenty percent this year. As we
Speaker 1: speak today, the Dow is off about eight hundred points
Speaker 1: as of this point. And what's going on in the morning.
Speaker 1: It was ugly. I was on with you last night
Speaker 1: till about one o'clock in the morning, and the Asian
Speaker 1: markets are in terrible shape. American markets open up that
Speaker 1: way terrible. Then there was a report turned out to
Speaker 1: be inaccurate that Donald Trump was willing to have a
Speaker 1: ninety eight pause to reflect on things that turned out
Speaker 1: to be false. And then the Trumpster did say he
Speaker 1: may impose additional fifty percent tariffs on China and China
Speaker 1: alone if they don't respond by April to ninth. So
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens there. But the markets continue to
Speaker 1: be down two to three percentage points, and we'll pick
Speaker 1: up on that. Thirdly, many issues so little time. There
Speaker 1: is the use of any issue by Democrats in the
Speaker 1: mainstream media to make Donald Trump either look corrupt or
Speaker 1: stupid or out of touch. No matter what the event is, NBC, ABC, CBS,
Speaker 1: the NPR, and etc. On the newspapers are always going
Speaker 1: to cover Donald Trump in a terribly negative way. He'll
Speaker 1: he won't catch a break for the next three years
Speaker 1: and nine months of his term. It simply won't not
Speaker 1: happen because the media is in the business of destroying
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I often think that the media and the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party hates Donald Trump more than they love America.
Speaker 1: They want to see him fail so badly. They want
Speaker 1: power back so much. They want to get you ready
Speaker 1: about a year and a half away, more than a
Speaker 1: year and a half away or the midterms. Xi Jhaoping
Speaker 1: in China and Vladimir Putin in Russia don't have to
Speaker 1: worry about the midterms. They can take the long term
Speaker 1: view and say, Okay, where do I want my country
Speaker 1: to be in one year, five years, ten years. And
Speaker 1: there's no descent of Russia except for military hardware when
Speaker 1: it comes to missile is almost a third world country.
Speaker 1: China is a mortal dagger at the heart of America.
Speaker 1: Economically and militarily. It's awful, and Chinese peoples live in
Speaker 1: a terrible circumstance for freedom of expression or any descent
Speaker 1: is not permitted. She doesn't have to worry in China
Speaker 1: about the midterms. He said, if it takes ten years,
Speaker 1: if it takes one hundred years, if it takes a
Speaker 1: thousand years, we will bring down the United States of
Speaker 1: America through various facets, including the importation of large amounts
Speaker 1: of fentanel in this country to kill especially Americans between
Speaker 1: the ages of fifteen and forty. They have balloons flying
Speaker 1: over the country. They're buying up millions of acres of
Speaker 1: farmland around our military bases. They want to crash our
Speaker 1: auto business by creating all these large EV plants in
Speaker 1: Mexico than shipping those evs in the country, killing American
Speaker 1: car dealers, in American car manufacturers. And they say, if
Speaker 1: it takes a year, ten years, five years, one hundred years,
Speaker 1: that's okay. Whatever it takes, we're going to win. America
Speaker 1: goes from left to right to left to right. It's
Speaker 1: hard to stay the course. Many liberal Democrats hate Donald
Speaker 1: Trump more than they love America's demonstrated at Washington Park.
Speaker 1: Won a bunch of multi colored hair liberals, a bunch
Speaker 1: of loonies. I call them useful idiots marched around Washington
Speaker 1: Park as if they were relevant and anyone cared. You
Speaker 1: can always call out the brigades of leftists to march
Speaker 1: and make it look as if they represent something bigger
Speaker 1: than themselves when they do not. I'm gonna give you
Speaker 1: some facts and figures. I deal with facts. Scott Sloane
Speaker 1: often deals and poetry. I deal with facts. America as
Speaker 1: a GDP gross domestic product annually of about thirty trillion
Speaker 1: dollars thirty trillion, Canada is two point five trillion, and
Speaker 1: Mexico is about one point five trillion, So putting Mexico
Speaker 1: and Canada together, that's about fifteen percent total of America's GDP.
Speaker 1: We could literally crash the economy of Canada if that's
Speaker 1: the desire of Donald Trump. Why two million cars are
Speaker 1: made in Canada and shipped into this country. Duty freeze
Speaker 1: beyond me, But it's happening. So Donald Trump wants to
Speaker 1: reset that relationship.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: I do not wish the great citizens of Canada ill
Speaker 1: will whatsoever, despite the fact half of them are French
Speaker 1: and they live in a province system, not necessarily in
Speaker 1: a federal system. And so in Canada, they got a
Speaker 1: big election coming up in about about four weeks. They're
Speaker 1: going to have a big powwow. They're going to pick
Speaker 1: new leaders. And until recently it was obvious that the
Speaker 1: so called Liberal Party was going to lose, and they
Speaker 1: were gonna lose big time because the Canadian people don't
Speaker 1: want what they're selling. But the guy running for the
Speaker 1: prime ministership of the party, the Liberal Party in Canada
Speaker 1: is going to use Donald Trump is a convenient, convenient
Speaker 1: foible in order to get elected. That sounds pretty familiar,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. And so the odds of having a Canadian
Speaker 1: deal in the next thirty days probably are not very
Speaker 1: good because Canada doesn't want a deal. The liberals in
Speaker 1: Canada want to keep power, as the liberals here want
Speaker 1: to get power, so they're going to do what's right.
Speaker 1: After they're re elected, then they're going to say, Okay,
Speaker 1: what do we do now. So that's an issue. In Mexico.
Speaker 1: The new president of Mexico, a woman named Schiebom, is
Speaker 1: doing what's right, which is making sure that the trafficking
Speaker 1: of human beings, especially young boys and girls, stops on
Speaker 1: the southern border. The Darien Gap has been shut down
Speaker 1: in southern Mexico, which was used by drug traffickers and
Speaker 1: human traffickers under Joe Biden to bring in millions and
Speaker 1: millions of illegals into the country. That's shut down. So
Speaker 1: when America tells to Canada and Mexico, we're thirty trillion
Speaker 1: dollars of GDP together, you two are a total of
Speaker 1: four that's fifteen percent of the thirty if my math
Speaker 1: tells me correct, that's a problem. Throw in the EU,
Speaker 1: who's now announcing the EU is saying we want to negotiate.
Speaker 1: European Union has twenty seven nations as part of the EU.
Speaker 1: If you take all of them together, including England, France,
Speaker 1: Germany and Greece and Belgium and Bulgaria and Denmark and Ireland,
Speaker 1: Italy and Sweden and Norway, whatever it is, put them
Speaker 1: all together, and they have a total GDP of seventeen
Speaker 1: trillion dollars, which is about about fifty seven percent of
Speaker 1: Americas so all together, if you would take the EU
Speaker 1: and take Mexico and Canada all together together, they are
Speaker 1: about two thirds of our economy. So their economy flourishes
Speaker 1: because we let their economy flourish. Why we have European
Speaker 1: products coming into America, especially cars, and our products can't
Speaker 1: be sold. There is on everyone's watch, a disaster for us.
Speaker 1: Right now, there's a trade deficit annually of about one
Speaker 1: point two trillion dollars. That means we transport one point
Speaker 1: two trillion dollars of our money to either the EU
Speaker 1: mainly China, and then to use that to build their
Speaker 1: societies at our expense. We finally have a new sheriff
Speaker 1: in town, and this sheriff's not putting up with it.
Speaker 1: And if you want to throw in Russia, they have
Speaker 1: a GDP of about two trillion dollars which is about
Speaker 1: six percent of America's GDP. All they are is a
Speaker 1: is a there's a service station with gasoline, and they
Speaker 1: have missile technology and that's it. So if we can
Speaker 1: stay the course, which in today's world with the media
Speaker 1: that we have and the Democratic Party complaining constantly to
Speaker 1: get power back and to make money themselves, we got
Speaker 1: a problem because these adversaries of our nation in Canada
Speaker 1: and Mexico and the EU are not enemies of America.
Speaker 1: That there should be trading partners. But it's got to
Speaker 1: be fair trade. It's got to be open trade. And
Speaker 1: if you have access to our markets, which is a
Speaker 1: thirty trillion dollar market, we should have accessed to your market.
Speaker 1: And if somebody in Germany or France or England wants
Speaker 1: to buy a Chevy Blazeer or a great Car, they
Speaker 1: can't do it. The tariffs are so high. So we
Speaker 1: accept their products, but they won't accept our products. That's
Speaker 1: got to change. It's got to be more innovation. They
Speaker 1: go after America tech industries that they want to find,
Speaker 1: for example, Google a billion dollars, they want to find Apple.
Speaker 1: They want to have use huge fines against American tech companies.
Speaker 1: That makes it almost impossible to do business in Europe.
Speaker 1: That's got to change, and until Donald Trump came along
Speaker 1: for his second term, no one addressed it. I think
Speaker 1: it's great that we have trading partners Tether and FRO,
Speaker 1: but it's got to be based upon fair trade. We
Speaker 1: had NAFTA in the nineteen nineties that didn't work with
Speaker 1: then in USMCA, United States, Mexico, and Canada. And there
Speaker 1: were so many exceptions granted by someone conducting the presidency
Speaker 1: the last four years. Surely it was not Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: We didn't have a president for those four years. There
Speaker 1: were so many exceptions that Canada could flood our market
Speaker 1: with products, and our farmers and our small industrial companies
Speaker 1: could not access the Canadian markets.
Speaker 2: It's not that big of a deal.
Speaker 1: It's two point five trillion compared to thirty trillion, But damn,
Speaker 1: what's good for the Goose should be good for the Gander.
Speaker 1: When they have terriffs keeping our products out of their country,
Speaker 1: we should have tariffs keeping our keeping their products out
Speaker 1: of America. Should be fair equal, And we finally have
Speaker 1: a president that'll do it. Let's continue with more and
Speaker 1: then the stock market. When I talked to those are
Speaker 1: somewhat good at this, they say, never try to catch
Speaker 1: a falling knife, and never try to time the market.
Speaker 1: Even experts can't do it. So let's continue with more,
Speaker 1: and after one o'clock today will be a report for
Speaker 1: Mayor Ron Walker is Washington, the new mayor of Covington,
Speaker 1: about the status as we speak. After two o'clock today,
Speaker 1: we've scheduled Connie Pillage, the new Hamilty County prosecutor, be
Speaker 1: here about why she did not indict the cops who
Speaker 1: unfortunately had to shoot a fleeing felon who refused to submit.
Speaker 1: And the fact he didn't understand English is not on
Speaker 1: the cops side of the fence. It's on the other
Speaker 1: person's side of the fence who committed felonies just before
Speaker 1: he was shot and killed on I seventy five. So
Speaker 1: let's continue with more. Plus Reds Baseball kicks off tonight.
Speaker 1: As you may know, they're in the Land of the
Speaker 1: Giants in San Francisco, first pitch about nine to five.
Speaker 2: Tonight.
Speaker 1: Coverage begins at eight forty five at your home of
Speaker 1: the Reds and the Bengals News Radio seven hundred WLW
Speaker 1: by Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 2: The great American.
Speaker 1: Of course, my hometown at Covington is being flooded as
Speaker 1: we speak. We've had reports now from New Richmond, later
Speaker 1: on from Aurora, Indiana. But until and then, the relatively
Speaker 1: new mayor of Covington is Mayor Ron Washington, who is
Speaker 1: a hero to many. Did a great job in the campaign.
Speaker 1: In fact, he was so good politically that no one
Speaker 1: ran against him. And now he's being tested by fire,
Speaker 1: ice and flood. Mayor Ron Washington, welcome for the second
Speaker 1: time to the Bill Cunningham Show. And as we sit
Speaker 1: here about one o'clock in the afternoon, can you tell
Speaker 1: the American people the status of flooding in my hometown
Speaker 1: at Covington.
Speaker 5: I would be glad to thank you, mister Cunningham for
Speaker 5: having me on. The City of Covington has received some
Speaker 5: minor flooding. When you look at the whole picture, around
Speaker 5: the forty fifth Street area of Covington has received flooding.
Speaker 5: The trailer park that we were very concerned about has
Speaker 5: received a small amounts of damage. We did evacuate people
Speaker 5: to Latonia Elementary School.
Speaker 3: A few people took us up on the evacuation.
Speaker 5: The determination is going to be made today whether not
Speaker 5: to keep that evacuation center opened.
Speaker 1: What are the experts tell you about the next twenty
Speaker 1: four to forty eight hours. Has it crested yet or
Speaker 1: is that later sometime today.
Speaker 5: We still do not know when the crest is going
Speaker 5: to happen. I just got off the phone with the
Speaker 5: fire chief. The fire chief indicated that we're still watching
Speaker 5: and seeing. We believe that it is steady. Since last
Speaker 5: night it rose, we believe about eight to twelve inches.
Speaker 5: So we've got our eye on it, but we're filling
Speaker 5: confident that it may not be raising anymore. You know,
Speaker 5: we do have the VFW Hall that's off of forty
Speaker 5: seventh Street. It is completely submersed in water. And then
Speaker 5: we do have some basements that have anywhere from you know,
Speaker 5: twelve the four feet of water and we're looking forward
Speaker 5: to the clean up bear Washington.
Speaker 1: When I take this suspension bridge and look to my
Speaker 1: right or left, there's a big floodwall there. What is
Speaker 1: the status of the river relative to that high floodwall
Speaker 1: on the right and left side of the suspension bridge.
Speaker 1: Very good question.
Speaker 5: On the right side, as many of you know, where
Speaker 5: Madison Avenue ends into the floodwall, we erected the floodgates
Speaker 5: several days ago. The water is up to the floodgates
Speaker 5: at the end of Madison Avenue, and we also put
Speaker 5: it at the.
Speaker 1: End of Bakewell Street.
Speaker 5: People may remember that as the former entries to the
Speaker 5: Waterfront restaurant. So the floodgates up there, floodgates up at
Speaker 5: Sixteenth Street, so we're preventing water from going onto our
Speaker 5: main streets. Now to the left, if you're coming south
Speaker 5: on the suspension bridge, you have Riverside Drive. Riverside Drive
Speaker 5: is a very scenic drive iro It is now covered
Speaker 5: with water and debris and some of the statutes are underwater.
Speaker 1: If one owns a home in that area and by
Speaker 1: the way, Riverside that's beautiful, gorgeous. Are those homes inundated yet?
Speaker 1: Will they be? What is the status of those Antebellum
Speaker 1: homes on Riverside Drive?
Speaker 5: So far, they have not been inundated. It's just the roadway.
Speaker 5: The park, there's a George Rogers Park is there. It's
Speaker 5: received from water. But reporting as of now is that
Speaker 5: those homes are safe and we don't perceive a problem
Speaker 5: with those beautiful homes.
Speaker 1: And as far as the as far as the Licking River,
Speaker 1: What is the status of the Licking River.
Speaker 5: Well, the Licking River is what's causing the trouble in Latonia.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 5: Latonia is also the Licking River. And like I reported before,
Speaker 5: it's it's it's We believe it's steady right now. But
Speaker 5: it has done some damages to some basements in the
Speaker 5: forty fifth area, the VSW forty seventh Street. It is underwater,
Speaker 5: of course, it sits directly on the Licking River. But
Speaker 5: thankfully and prayerfully, at this time no one has been hurt.
Speaker 1: If you can recall, maybe you were in service to
Speaker 1: our great nation in the military, but in nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: seven the flood went over the top of the floodwall
Speaker 1: and had some real difficulties to anticipate this time that's
Speaker 1: going to happen or not, Assuming the status quo is maintained,
Speaker 1: assuming it doesn't rain anymore, and assuming the high River
Speaker 1: goes up another foot maybe eighteen inches, will a floodwall hold.
Speaker 5: Floodwall will hold. I was not in the military as
Speaker 5: a police officer, the floodwall will hold, you know, So
Speaker 5: we should we should be good.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: So that beautiful hotel where Barry Larkin used to live
Speaker 1: on top of that hotel. When I take the suspensar
Speaker 1: bridge on the right, and is that accessible if someone
Speaker 1: wants to come into that area, which is by the
Speaker 1: convention center, are you shutting down traffic thither and fro?
Speaker 1: Or can one access the convention center?
Speaker 3: Everyone?
Speaker 5: If you want to come to the convention center, it's
Speaker 5: a riverside drive. Or excuse me, to Second Street where
Speaker 5: the hotels are, where our beloved CORPORATEX is no problems.
Speaker 5: You can park there, The parking garage is fine. Everything's
Speaker 5: fine on the other side of the floodwall.
Speaker 1: Where your life jacket not so good. Riverside drive? Is
Speaker 1: this gorgeous? But is that inaccessible?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: For those who know what we're talking about. When you
Speaker 1: go on the suspension bridge on the left, are some
Speaker 1: of those homes one hundred years old a little bit
Speaker 1: up on the top of a little hill overlooking the
Speaker 1: high River.
Speaker 2: Can someone access those homes or not?
Speaker 5: They can access them from their alley ways, but they
Speaker 5: cannot access their front doors unless they have a rowboat
Speaker 5: because the street is covered with water.
Speaker 2: And then the cover up's going to take a while.
Speaker 1: Correct, because these things happen normally it's the fight afterwards
Speaker 1: to get rid of all the debris and the mud
Speaker 1: that's going to be the problem looking forward.
Speaker 5: That's correct, And a special shout out to our public works.
Speaker 5: You know, they're the unsung, unseen heroes of our city
Speaker 5: that keeps the trains.
Speaker 3: Run on time.
Speaker 5: And they've done a great jobs erecting the flood walls
Speaker 5: and putting barricades up where Riverside Drive is and and
Speaker 5: River Road where there's low lining roadways.
Speaker 3: Near the river.
Speaker 5: And also our fire department who went door to door,
Speaker 5: especially in our trailer park and the forty fifth Street
Speaker 5: area to warn people about the flooding.
Speaker 1: So hats off to them. So really it's a problem,
Speaker 1: not yet a crisis. Have you ordered any evacuations, any
Speaker 1: orders on the citizens of Covington.
Speaker 5: No, no evacuations, No evacuation, No evacuations.
Speaker 3: No evacuations.
Speaker 5: The trailer park was evacuated, but you know that that
Speaker 5: evacuation took two days ago. It was a voluntary evacuation.
Speaker 5: It was not an order from the government so to speak.
Speaker 5: We did provide shelter for them at our Latonia Elementary School,
Speaker 5: and we suspect that the evacuation shelter will be shut
Speaker 5: down today.
Speaker 1: And one thing I talked to Rob Sanders over the weekend.
Speaker 1: We texted back and forth. Is there be any incidences
Speaker 1: of looting or unusual criminal behavior?
Speaker 2: It's your knowledge.
Speaker 5: No, I've readmind you that we're talking about Kentucky.
Speaker 1: No, there hasn't been.
Speaker 2: Not in Kentucky. It doesn't happen I Covington does it.
Speaker 1: We don't allow that. We put lines up.
Speaker 2: You have no question about it.
Speaker 1: You have you having Comington a whole bunch of real
Speaker 1: functional police officers. Well, Mayor Ron Washington, we have to go.
Speaker 1: You're being tested by fire and by flood. And the
Speaker 1: first few months of your titular head of the Covington
Speaker 1: government has been interesting, and I'm sure coming to will
Speaker 1: get along quite well. And once again, Mayor Ron Washington,
Speaker 1: thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And Mayor
Speaker 1: you're a great American. Thank you very much, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 3: Take care.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more and if the line becomes available
Speaker 1: five one, three, seven, four nine, seven thousand or pounds
Speaker 1: seven hundred new at and T. Bill Cunningham on News
Speaker 1: Radio seven. Let's continue now after two o'clock today, we
Speaker 1: scheduled Connie Pillage to be here. The new Amy County
Speaker 1: prosecutor been out at about three months or so. Headline
Speaker 1: man fatally shot by officer, can't be linked to a
Speaker 1: stolen car, no charges for officer who shot him, And
Speaker 1: we're going to fill in some of the facts because
Speaker 1: up to this point of course there's been media speculation
Speaker 1: and leaks about what happened, how did it happen. This
Speaker 1: is the third shooting by a police officer, each called
Speaker 1: justified by Connie Pillage, And between you and I, there
Speaker 1: was a concern that if a liberal Democrat became the
Speaker 1: county prosecutor, he or she might have a different attitude
Speaker 1: when it came to police shootings. And this is one
Speaker 1: that looks to me to be completely justified. But I
Speaker 1: don't think all the facts are out there. So Connie
Speaker 1: Pillag and we'll be here after two o'clock to discuss
Speaker 1: her success as prosecutor would be my success. I wanted
Speaker 1: to be successful. There's no county in America that has
Speaker 1: a conservative Republican anymore, as the county prosecutor is completely
Speaker 1: one way and County Pillach is a suburban I who
Speaker 1: spent years in the state legislature. So let's see what
Speaker 1: she has to say after two o'clock today on the
Speaker 1: shooting on the side of I seventy five in the
Speaker 1: early morning hours of March the nineteenth, and the officer
Speaker 1: involved I thinks from Evendale will not face charges, and
Speaker 1: we'll discuss that more fully in about thirty five or
Speaker 1: forty minutes. Until then, I got a text from a
Speaker 1: police officer in Covington. One of my last questions of
Speaker 1: Mayor Ron Washington was about looting, and the officers said,
Speaker 1: we don't put up with that in Covington. That happens
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. So I said, okay, there has been some
Speaker 1: looting in Cincinnati. You might recall a couple times during
Speaker 1: the so called George Floyd riots that justified looting and
Speaker 1: justified mayhem in which few, if anywhere ever prosecuted, That
Speaker 1: did not happen in Covington.
Speaker 2: In fact, when it was going on.
Speaker 1: You might recall George Floyd riots in twenty two twenty
Speaker 1: and then before that, about twenty years earlier, when Charlie
Speaker 1: Luken was the mayor, there was another precept that indicated
Speaker 1: it was time to loot, and the looting happened twice
Speaker 1: in the last twenty four years of a serious character
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. In fact, there was a gentleman who took
Speaker 1: a skateboard up against the side winners of the Hamny
Speaker 1: County Justice Center, and that person was never apprehended, and
Speaker 1: there was just a widespread mayhem in Cincinnati. And at
Speaker 1: that point I was with you on the radio, and
Speaker 1: I had on the representatives of the city of Covington,
Speaker 1: the city of Newport. Guess what, there was no widespread
Speaker 1: looting or any looting in Covington or Newport. The police
Speaker 1: sent out the message quickly that if you engage in
Speaker 1: this behavior, you will be promptly arrested, there will be
Speaker 1: high bonds, You're going to be locked up and then
Speaker 1: sent down to Eddieville. And all of a sudden, guess what,
Speaker 1: there wasn't a looting, and that was not the message
Speaker 1: sent forth throughout. Most of our major cities which have
Speaker 1: been ruined by liberal democratic politicians are magnificent. Opulent cities
Speaker 1: lay in ruins largely. Give me an example. Over the weekend,
Speaker 1: I had anicasion to drive through Lochland, which as you
Speaker 1: may know, is between Wyoming and Reading, and to go
Speaker 1: through Lochland at least in the early evening hours, look
Speaker 1: like a third world country. Lachland didn't look good at all.
Speaker 1: It was bad. And that's because there were thousands and
Speaker 1: thousands of Mouritanians, which is a small country in western Africa,
Speaker 1: who made their way into America and congregated for some
Speaker 1: reason in Lochland, Ohio, and the police are overwhelmed. Crimes
Speaker 1: are being committed, of which there's no nine to one
Speaker 1: one call being made. If you have time sometime today
Speaker 1: tomorrow Wednesday, drive through Lochland, which is to go on
Speaker 1: the main drag there in Wyoming, the Home of the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: into Writing, the Home of the Blue Devils, and take
Speaker 1: a look at Lochland and tell me what you see.
Speaker 1: It's not good. In fact, it's bad. And so I
Speaker 1: anticipate that things will change for Donald Trump. He's revoking
Speaker 1: certain visas through an app that Joe Biden put in
Speaker 1: to aggravate the number of illegal aliens coming into America
Speaker 1: under some sort of a program that was originally created
Speaker 1: to allow individuals and other countries to temporarily come into
Speaker 1: America to have an operation performed on them, or to
Speaker 1: visit to look at the Grand Canyon, and he expanded
Speaker 1: that to include for any reason at all.
Speaker 2: That's part of the reason.
Speaker 1: We have over one million human beings inside of America
Speaker 1: right now, over one million that have orders to leave
Speaker 1: that won't leave. We have tens of millions of others
Speaker 1: that are here illegally that should be taken care of
Speaker 1: and apprehend it and sent back to their home country.
Speaker 1: But just take a look at downtown Lachlan and tell
Speaker 1: me that represents the best of the American dream. The
Speaker 1: city of Wyoming won't put up with it, the city
Speaker 1: of Rating won't put up with it. But Lachlan is overwhelmed.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more. We'll see what happened after two
Speaker 1: o'clock today. We've scheduled the New Hamony County prosecutor County
Speaker 1: Pillage to be here to talk about the Lachlan I'm
Speaker 1: sorry it wasn't even it was Lachland police officer who
Speaker 1: shot and killed a forty eight year old immigrant because
Speaker 1: the immigrant did not respond to commands, was tased without
Speaker 1: noticeable effect, and allegedly he didn't, we think, understand English,
Speaker 1: so he didn't understand what was being done. But if
Speaker 1: officers have their weapons out and they're yelling at me.
Speaker 1: I don't care what language it is. I got my
Speaker 1: arms up. I don't have a I don't have a
Speaker 1: metal rod in my hand. So let's continue with more
Speaker 1: plus Reds. Baseball kicks off tonight about eight forty five.
Speaker 1: I show them the Reds and the Bengals. News Radio
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati. Glide through center right side to
Speaker 1: Wilson centered up. Oh that's God, has any scores?
Speaker 3: He scores?
Speaker 1: Palle all, that's dead scores? Ain't ninety five? There's a
Speaker 1: new goal scoring.
Speaker 5: Champion and his name he's Alexanderstand.
Speaker 1: He has done it.
Speaker 6: Hello, quiets, I'm broadcasting.
Speaker 2: Of course, segment. We have more issues than hockey.
Speaker 1: Explain that, well, Explain to Dave Keaton, how the goal
Speaker 1: record is different than the points record. Be goes according
Speaker 1: to the points record.
Speaker 2: You're great.
Speaker 1: When Wayne Gretzky is so far up in points, he'll
Speaker 1: never be approached by anyone, including Ovenchkin.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 6: Well, nobody thought that Gretzky's goal scoring record was going
Speaker 6: to be did you know?
Speaker 1: I kind of thought it would. I mean, how do
Speaker 1: you know?
Speaker 6: But the biscuit of this, it's like Pete Roses forty
Speaker 6: two fifty six.
Speaker 1: Never, who's gonna do it?
Speaker 2: Never? Never?
Speaker 1: You got to get at least what two hundred hits
Speaker 1: for tear like years, twenty years in a rank and
Speaker 1: you're still way short, right anyway, explain to them.
Speaker 6: But how about this though, in March of nineteen ninety nine,
Speaker 6: right down, Gretzky's scored his final goal number eight ninety
Speaker 6: four against the Islanders.
Speaker 2: Islanders eight ninety four.
Speaker 6: April of twenty twenty five, yesterday, Ovechkin scores the record
Speaker 6: goal eight ninety five against the Islanders.
Speaker 2: Impossible. How about that?
Speaker 1: And how they both scored eight ninety four playing exactly
Speaker 1: the same number, correct, eight ninety five. When he broke
Speaker 1: the record, he played exactly in the same number of
Speaker 1: games as Wayne Gretzky played.
Speaker 2: Correct. Then go do you call in the hockey games?
Speaker 2: Is that what it is? Or is a matchup?
Speaker 3: How?
Speaker 2: It's hockey game? Hockey game?

Speaker 1: the goal.
Speaker 6: Well, the points his goals and assists are added up.
Speaker 6: So I had eight million assists, plus he's got eight
Speaker 6: hundred and ninety four goals.
Speaker 1: So the point record by Gretzky will never be a point,
Speaker 1: probably not No, Well, you never know, I'd say no.
Speaker 1: They're saying now that Ovechkin could have could probably score
Speaker 1: one thousand goals. He keeps playing, You gonna.
Speaker 2: Play one more year.
Speaker 1: I guess it's forty something years old, turns forty later
Speaker 1: this year. What if he plays two more years and
Speaker 1: has a thousand goals segment but he was congratulated by

Speaker 6: in a red uniform, three time All Star, four time
Speaker 6: Gold Glover, and a record thirty to thirty season in
Speaker 6: two thousand and seven from my main man?
Speaker 1: Is he in there? One might need a scotch before
Speaker 1: I get to work. Well, I think I think right
Speaker 1: now someone may need a scotch. How about this fact
Speaker 1: told I'm listening to Austin of course after the game yesterday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the reds of course is zero and eleven against the
Speaker 1: brew Crew. Correct, even to the brew cruise herd get
Speaker 1: rid of their best players, have no pitching, right, they
Speaker 1: still lose.
Speaker 2: Reds lose.
Speaker 1: Right. But then also, as you may know, as of
Speaker 1: May first of each year having a winning record, the
Speaker 1: Reds are one and eleven in the last eleven years
Speaker 1: having a winning record or May first. Now you said
Speaker 1: at the Holy Grail, I haven't recorded somewhere that it's
Speaker 1: critical that the Reds get off to a good start.
Speaker 1: Would you describe this as a good start.
Speaker 6: No, they should have played more of their players in
Speaker 6: the preseason, like the Bengals.
Speaker 1: Who's gotten off to a worst start? Bengals last season
Speaker 1: or Reds this season? Well, Bengals, they go oher to three.
Speaker 1: You're in a You're in a hole.
Speaker 6: Hardly dig yourself out of it with at three and seven,
Speaker 6: you got one hundred and what one hundred and fifty
Speaker 6: to fifty?
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty some games left?
Speaker 2: Got some?
Speaker 1: You have some you have some time left? Is that
Speaker 1: fair to say?
Speaker 6: I would say so, but it might be so panicking
Speaker 6: like the flying panic. Calm down. I'm telling you need
Speaker 6: to tell Reds fans don't come down well this weekend,
Speaker 6: they're coming back home. Are you aware of that? Pittsburgh
Speaker 6: and Paul Skeens and then the saddle Seattle Mariners with
Speaker 6: Ken Griffy Junior hit town.
Speaker 1: He's playing a week after that. Then after that they
Speaker 1: go to Baltimore. Not good. Let's say at some point, huh,
Speaker 1: this fool is just got to stop. Well, at some point.
Speaker 6: Strings and wins together and we've been nice to start again.
Speaker 6: But the Giants are red hot, and this is their
Speaker 6: opener tonight. I think, oh no, I don't know, Well,
Speaker 6: what do you? I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you about I know
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 6: They're getting the pitching they're they're they're wasting good pitching. Well,
Speaker 6: he and the bats are silent. Maybe I would think
Speaker 6: that Rick Stowe put in an emergency uh deal order
Speaker 6: for torpedo bats.
Speaker 1: Tell Rick a dozen right now? For everybody they have
Speaker 1: outfielders that can't hit. They got a second basement that
Speaker 1: can't get on the field. And supposedly Matt McLain turned
Speaker 1: on a long term contract. He miss his last year
Speaker 1: with the shoulder. Now, what's up with that?
Speaker 2: What's a amstring? What are you doing right.
Speaker 1: That's right in your upper leg. I I never had
Speaker 1: those Injuriesavior you want to just chewed him off and
Speaker 1: all playing? And is he going to play tonight? Do
Speaker 1: you think we'll see?
Speaker 2: How about bringing up Bentley and Marte?
Speaker 1: You mean Benson.
Speaker 6: He's driving to Bentley probably drove up. Well, you can't
Speaker 6: get out of Louisville. It's flooded. How do you get out?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Boat we have nothing but issue everywhere I look, and.
Speaker 6: I'll see if you want those two guys there, you
Speaker 6: put them on a boat. They go all the way
Speaker 6: down to the Ohio, Illinois. You tell him to take
Speaker 6: her left. You go down to Mississippi, past Memphis, Vicksburg,
Speaker 6: matt Rouge, into New Orleans. That leaves you into the
Speaker 6: Gulf of America. Now what then you take the Golf
Speaker 6: of America to the Panama Canal. We own you bring
Speaker 6: them back up by the Pacific night. No, and at
Speaker 6: the end of the month tonight. They'll get to San
Speaker 6: Francisco by the end of the month, but the Reds
Speaker 6: won't be there. How about that's true?
Speaker 1: You got to do something different. Red's outfielders, whoever they are,
Speaker 1: aren't hitting at.
Speaker 6: All and and and stupid base running some of them.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable, Andy Mack, how about this, got a text?
Speaker 1: Would you please tell Seggy's a clown? Seg you're a clown. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you. Paul Skeens will not pitch this. Well, that's good.
Speaker 1: That's a good thing in the Red Series because we'll
Speaker 1: not pitching the Red Series against Pirates this week.
Speaker 2: This guy's calling you a clown.
Speaker 1: Well, okay, I'm glad he called me a clown. I'm glad.
Speaker 6: I'm just saying Pittsburgh Pirates are starring Paul Skeens. Now,
Speaker 6: if you didn't say if he does, that's right. I
Speaker 6: didn't say.
Speaker 1: I think Pittsburgh has won two games, thank you. If
Speaker 1: you can't beat up on those guys, Yeah, they have.
Speaker 6: They have not built uh, they have not built a
Speaker 6: team in Pittsburgh around Skeens like the Reds have here.
Speaker 6: They've built it around good, good young players.
Speaker 2: What what what what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Overall good young players and young pitching. When when they
Speaker 1: start playing here? Now, when are they going to start
Speaker 1: winning some baseball games?
Speaker 6: Maybe to night they were allowed, maybe they'll sweep them.
Speaker 6: How about that big shot I want to about a
Speaker 6: hot futs son you on that one segment?
Speaker 1: Why not you got it?
Speaker 6: I think I think you have no hope, you have
Speaker 6: no faith, no notice see chaos. Ever, you're gonna jump
Speaker 6: off the Titanic before to the Iceberg stock market edich
Speaker 6: into that is one. What it's this week? It's the
Speaker 6: it's the twelfth, April twelfth?
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 6: The Titanic hits the Iceberg and sinks. FDR died April,
Speaker 6: great loss of life, April. Lincoln was shot North Latin,
Speaker 6: all of it.
Speaker 1: We had that one guy that every year he would call, uh,
Speaker 1: give me some factoid on the Titanic. Lowell, that's him, Yeah, Lowell.
Speaker 6: And Wallace Hartley and the band played Nearer My God

Speaker 6: immortal words of the stud Report.
Speaker 7: You know, Debbie's right, now are like museums to me,
Speaker 7: I'm just looking at Ad Myron, looking at Ad Myron.
Speaker 2: When he refers to Debbie's, what's he talking about?
Speaker 6: Ladies? The Debbie's the ladies, the little Debbie. You needed
Speaker 6: a code book with that dude, BP and the dugout.
Speaker 6: But they were classic times and.
Speaker 1: In today's world, with and without nuts, the Debbie sometimes
Speaker 1: have nuts. On news radio seven hundred wlw Right, Bill Cunningham,
Speaker 1: the Great America and the account Prosecutor Connie Pillage announced
Speaker 1: a couple hours ago that a Lachland police officer involved
Speaker 1: in a police involved shooting on the side of I
Speaker 1: seventy five about three point forty five in the morning
Speaker 1: or so on March the nineteenth of this year. We're
Speaker 1: not face charges, Jonan, You and I now it's that
Speaker 1: same Connie Pillag and Connie Pillach. Welcome to the Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham Show. And first of all, Connie, can you tell
Speaker 1: the American people whether this case was presented to the
Speaker 1: grand jury or did you kind of do this, shall
Speaker 1: we say without presenting it the facts?
Speaker 4: Thanks thanks for having me, Bill really appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So we did not see the need to take this
Speaker 4: to the grand jury. I was one of the people
Speaker 4: among four prostitutors from my office who responded to the
Speaker 4: scene that morning, and we reviewed all the evidence available
Speaker 4: to us, and I'm very satisfied that it was a
Speaker 4: justifiable shooting.
Speaker 2: Let's walk through some of the facts.
Speaker 1: I think the media got it wrong at least beginning
Speaker 1: about this. This future decedent may have been involved in
Speaker 1: the chase itself. Can you explain how the chase began,
Speaker 1: I think in the Westchester area, then made its way
Speaker 1: to Ice seventy five because there was some misinformation out there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, certainly so. Up in Butler County on Routes seven seven,
Speaker 4: a flock camera alert noted a license plate that belonged
Speaker 4: to a vehicle that had been stolen, and Westchester law
Speaker 4: enforcement responded, found the car and started following itself. The
Speaker 4: car did run some red lights and was picking up speed,
Speaker 4: so Westchester continued its pursuit. At two seventy five, the
Speaker 4: car turned west on two seventy five, Westchester, still in pursuit,
Speaker 4: they took the first exit and did sort of a
Speaker 4: loop the loop and got back on to two seventy
Speaker 4: five heading west. We can only presume that they were
Speaker 4: trying to elude the police, but between onto I two
Speaker 4: seventy five they were exceeding one hundred miles an hour,
Speaker 4: and even though it was at two point thirty in
Speaker 4: the morning, that's still incredibly dangerous. Our highways are not
Speaker 4: built for that type of speed and the visibility you need.
Speaker 4: So then they got off. Let's see, then they got
Speaker 4: off on Mostellar Road and went south and as they
Speaker 4: started to go south to Westchester, police backed off because
Speaker 4: now they're in Hamilton County and Sharonville took over, and
Speaker 4: around the same time a lot of law law enforcement
Speaker 4: agencies in Hamilton County were alerted and started to respond.
Speaker 4: We had Evendale responding, obviously Sharonville because they were already
Speaker 4: in pursuit. We also had the county sheriff and at
Speaker 4: some point Lockland. So the car started a meander through
Speaker 4: Sharonville and Evandale and got onto Medallion Drive, which is
Speaker 4: an industrial light industry area no residences, and when an
Speaker 4: Evendel police officer found it, crashed into a guardrail, which
Speaker 4: is a dead end on one of those roads, and
Speaker 4: all the doors to the vehicle were open and it
Speaker 4: was empty. So instead of pursuing a vehicle. Now they
Speaker 4: were trying to find the passengers and the driver inside,
Speaker 4: and that's where we start to move into what happened
Speaker 4: with the shooting.
Speaker 1: So there was some indication by that point there were
Speaker 1: multiple persons. Because of all the four doors open of
Speaker 1: the crash vehicle, one would have to assume they were
Speaker 1: looking looking for numerous people in the dark about two
Speaker 1: thirty three o'clock in the morning, and the weather was chilly,
Speaker 1: it was cold. So these officers from Hamlety County Sheriff Evendale,
Speaker 1: Sharonville Lachlan, I thought they had something serious on their
Speaker 1: hands because this person driving the car committed numerous felonies
Speaker 1: fleeing and looting, plus other offenses, and they were seriously
Speaker 1: looking for them and unbeknownst to them, as I understand it,
Speaker 1: as the facts went on that whoever was driving that
Speaker 1: car that committed these numerous felonies fleeing and looting, that
Speaker 1: person to this time has not been apprehended or arrested,
Speaker 1: but the police did not know that at the time. Correct.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's correct, So we don't really know at this
Speaker 4: time how many people were in. But like you said,
Speaker 4: if all four doors are open, it makes sense that
Speaker 4: they're trying to get away past they're not going to
Speaker 4: stop and open a door for no reason. They all
Speaker 4: ran off, and about since that time, there was one
Speaker 4: suspect has been has been found, but that's not what
Speaker 4: I'm here to talk about.
Speaker 1: Right, So one was yeah, one was found later, but
Speaker 1: that's not the that he wasn't the object of the shooting.
Speaker 1: So explain how this other person who just I guess
Speaker 1: happened to be walking along I seventy five. Explain how
Speaker 1: the police came in contact with that person who later
Speaker 1: would be shot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. So as I said that, many law
Speaker 4: enforcement agencies were responding, and one of those responders was
Speaker 4: an officer from Lachlan. He started moving, driving north on
Speaker 4: I seventy five. Oh, I want to say about three
Speaker 4: o'clock am. And as he's driving north towards where everybody
Speaker 4: believed the suspects had fled, he saw a man who
Speaker 4: we later found out with Samuel Munar Test walking north
Speaker 4: on the shoulder of I seventy five, and the officer
Speaker 4: naturally thought he could be involved with this this stolen vehicle.
Speaker 4: So he with his lights on his and his sirens running,
Speaker 4: stopped and engaged with mister Mum with mister Munyar's head test.
Speaker 2: I couldn't say the last name either.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's a lot of a lot of syllables.
Speaker 4: So so they you know, we were in our investigation
Speaker 4: and in our review of the evidence. Here's what we saw.
Speaker 4: So the Lachlan officer did not have a body worn camera,
Speaker 4: nor was he required to. And you'll you'll learn that
Speaker 4: the village of Lachlan started to acquire body worn cameras
Speaker 4: just earlier this year and they're still in the process.
Speaker 4: They've ordered them and still in the process of that.
Speaker 4: So kudos to the chief who thought that would be helpful.
Speaker 4: Unfortunately would have been a little more helpful earlier. But
Speaker 4: what we did see was that a sheriff's deputy who
Speaker 4: was a canine officer had also responded and he was
Speaker 4: in Edendale trying to help find the fleeing suspect, but
Speaker 4: he heard the radio traffic from this Lachland officer who said,
Speaker 4: I found a man on the side of the road.
Speaker 4: He has something in his hands. So the the sheriff's
Speaker 4: deputy and the canine officer started walking south on I
Speaker 4: seventy five. Actually it might have been the on ramp
Speaker 4: or the exit ramp going from as you were going north,
Speaker 4: he'd be exiting to Glendale Milford Road. And we got
Speaker 4: to see his video, his body worn camera video, and
Speaker 4: it shows him heading towards. You can see the flashing lights,
Speaker 4: you can hear the siren, and you can see as
Speaker 4: we get as he got a little closer, the bilouette
Speaker 4: of the Lachlan officer and mister Munya Tete and.
Speaker 1: Was here at the critical moment. Kind of at this
Speaker 1: point the confrontation, that's unusual for some woman walking on
Speaker 1: the side of I seventy five or two forty five
Speaker 1: in the morning. Uh, and you're looking for these two
Speaker 1: or three guys not knowing who. So at this point,
Speaker 1: what did the officer do at that point from Lachlan.
Speaker 4: So, of course the officer didn't really know why mister
Speaker 4: Munya Tetta was there, but he could have been a
Speaker 4: reasonable person of interest in this vehicle theft and chase.
Speaker 4: And it also we learned that mister munhaw Uteta had
Speaker 4: a metal pipe in his hand and you can see
Speaker 4: on the Canine officers video you can see unfortunately, mister
Speaker 4: munhaw Utetta moved towards the officer, but we also know
Speaker 4: and he had the uh the pipe raised above his
Speaker 4: head in a threatening manner. We did hear on the
Speaker 4: radio transmission the Lachlan officer was saying, he's got something
Speaker 4: in his hands, he's not listening to my orders. And
Speaker 4: then about thirty seconds later, step it up, please, And
Speaker 4: about another twenty seconds after that, the video shows mister
Speaker 4: Munhai Routeta LUNs towards the officer in that threatening manner,
Speaker 4: and that's when we heard the shots fired. The canine
Speaker 4: go ahead please as.
Speaker 1: Far as the metal pipe, and one would have to
Speaker 1: assume that if you're walking in a place you should
Speaker 1: not be, it's probably an offense simply to be on
Speaker 1: Ive seventy five walking in the early morning hours. Secondly,
Speaker 1: the argument from the family, I read some of their
Speaker 1: comments from the family said that he didn't understand English
Speaker 1: completely and that he used some sort of app in
Speaker 1: order to translate. But you'd have to assume at that
Speaker 1: point the red lights are on, the yellow lights are on,
Speaker 1: sirens are everywhere. It's fair to assume the future deceit
Speaker 1: and understood that this was a law enforcement matter and
Speaker 1: that he was the subject of it. At some point.
Speaker 1: Can you tell the American people, County pilachaw Many County prosecutor,
Speaker 1: how many feet away from the future deceited was the
Speaker 1: Lachland police officer when he fired the one in fatal shot.
Speaker 1: Was it five feet, ten feet, twenty feet? How close
Speaker 1: was this guy to maybe causing serious physical harm to
Speaker 1: the Lachland police.
Speaker 4: I don't have that information. I can tell you that
Speaker 4: from the video that I watched and that I showed
Speaker 4: at my press conference today, you could see that mister
Speaker 4: Munta was moving advancing swiftly toward him. But I didn't
Speaker 4: take the measurements at the scene, so I'm reluctant to
Speaker 4: to opine on what the distance was, but I do
Speaker 4: want to let you know that as the shots were fired,
Speaker 4: the canine officer continued to approach the scene. He was
Speaker 4: running and he uh yelled out to the to mister
Speaker 4: Munata to show me your hands, show me your hands.
Speaker 4: And and of course mister munhaar Roteta didn't understand. I mean,
Speaker 4: it's a stressful situation to begin with. People are screaming
Speaker 4: at him, there's lights and sirens, and I it's it's
Speaker 4: not surprising that he might not have understood but to
Speaker 4: the officers and handcuffed mister mun Pets. Another law enforcement
Speaker 4: began to arrive. They rendered first aid. And then when
Speaker 4: you get closer, we have a good view of the scene.
Speaker 4: You can see that the officer had deployed his taser
Speaker 4: and that was on the ground, and I have the
Speaker 4: taser discharge report which confirms that he deployed the taser.
Speaker 4: We can see it appears just from where the taser
Speaker 4: was that the officer had backed up quite a bit.
Speaker 4: So he was trying to de escalate in whatever way
Speaker 4: he could. But when someone's lunging at you with a
Speaker 4: metal pipe or a metal rod, and behind you is
Speaker 4: traffic going sixty seventy miles an hour I seventy five,
Speaker 4: he couldn't retreat.
Speaker 1: As far as the two or three reasons, the County
Speaker 1: prospect County Pillage did not present it to the grand jury,
Speaker 1: which by the way, is a normal procedure. There are
Speaker 1: many times in the past where the ham Many County
Speaker 1: prosecutor or other prosecutors, unless you firmly believe yourself in
Speaker 1: the fact that this person should be indicted, I don't
Speaker 1: present it because who knows what they might do? At
Speaker 1: your job as county prosecutor, as you know, to present
Speaker 1: cases of the grand jury when you believe firmly that
Speaker 1: an offense was committed by the defendant in this case
Speaker 1: of Lachland police officer, So what were the two or
Speaker 1: three main factors in your mind that said, after this
Speaker 1: lengthy investigation, including several agencies including BCI, what were the
Speaker 1: two or three reasons you decided not to present it
Speaker 1: to the grand jury.
Speaker 4: It was very clear to me that the officer tried
Speaker 4: to use non legal force and took the escalation techniques.
Speaker 4: It was also very clear and evident that mister munyait
Speaker 4: had took a very aggressive approach, holding this uh steel
Speaker 4: rod steel type in his hands above his head, kind
Speaker 4: of like a baseball dad, except above his head, and
Speaker 4: he was lunging towards the officer. The officer was trying
Speaker 4: to to uh save his own life. That's what I
Speaker 4: needed to see. He already, Yeah, he tried to escalate.
Speaker 1: Yes, you'd have to assume that if the officer did
Speaker 1: not shoot the future defendant, that the reasonable behavior of
Speaker 1: this uh, this uh, this person from Africa would have
Speaker 1: his intent was to cause physical harm to the cops.
Speaker 1: So the cop had to shoot to save his own
Speaker 1: life for other people's lives.
Speaker 4: Correct, Yes, And the officer did a good job of
Speaker 4: trying to avoid having to shoot him. It reflects he
Speaker 4: had good training and had good wits about him. And
Speaker 4: I couldn't as that's a stressful situation. He got cars feeding, DYU,
Speaker 4: you get run over if you have to back up anymore.
Speaker 4: And they're a man lunching at to with some metal
Speaker 4: object over his head, ready to bring it down on
Speaker 4: your head.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 4: For me, it was extremely justifiable.
Speaker 2: A Many County prosecutor County, yeah, please go ahead.
Speaker 4: Look. And the officer was clearly impacted by the incident,
Speaker 4: you can see that in the video too, and he
Speaker 4: didn't want to cause such a tragedy, but that's what
Speaker 4: he had to do.
Speaker 1: As a policy matter going forward. You've been there about
Speaker 1: four months. As a policy matter, for example, Butler County
Speaker 1: Prosecutor Michael Moser takes every police shooting to the grand
Speaker 1: jury to determine if the officer has committed any crime.
Speaker 1: You seem not to take that approach, which is similar
Speaker 1: to other prosecutors have done in Hamlet County. Well, what
Speaker 1: is the policy of Countie Pillach when it comes to
Speaker 1: police shootings, will you take everyone to the grand jury
Speaker 1: or not.
Speaker 4: No, I'm not going to take everyone to the grand jury.
Speaker 4: I'm only going to take those to the grand jury
Speaker 4: that where I believe we have probable cause to move
Speaker 4: forward with a crime and with a charge.
Speaker 1: Right, And in this case you say no. In fact,
Speaker 1: this is the third police shooting that's happened under your watch.
Speaker 1: And on February the twenty eighth, Robert Brandon Eldrid, thirty
Speaker 1: nine years old, was accused of charging at sheriff's deputies
Speaker 1: and you didn't take it to the grand jury. March
Speaker 1: the second police shot, Cincinni police shot thirty one year
Speaker 1: old Patrick Lyons after he charged that officers with a knife,
Speaker 1: and you call that a clean shooting. So as far
Speaker 1: as police conduct, if you're a police officer's three to zero.
Speaker 1: The county pillage will review each case, but you're not
Speaker 1: going to present cases of the grand jury putting the
Speaker 1: officer's freedom at risk unless you firmly believe in the
Speaker 1: truth of the charge.
Speaker 2: Is that correct?
Speaker 4: Exactly exactly? And look, I've responded to two of these
Speaker 4: three shootings myself, and part of that is because I'm
Speaker 4: new and I want to make sure I know what
Speaker 4: the proper procedures are and my office and I reviewed
Speaker 4: the evidence and I made the decision to not proceed
Speaker 4: on those They were clean shootings, and that's where we start.
Speaker 1: County Pillage, thank you very much, and I like the
Speaker 1: lines of communication being open and the police officer is free.
Speaker 1: Of course, is always possible to have federal involvement in this,
Speaker 1: so we are going to have a new US attorney
Speaker 1: in the next thirty days, I'm told, and thinking of
Speaker 1: who it's going to be. But nonetheless, there's possible of
Speaker 1: a federal involvement. It's unlikely, but it's possible. But you
Speaker 1: did your duty as God gave you the light to
Speaker 1: see that duty and deciding not to present it to
Speaker 1: the grand jury, which means this officer is free and
Speaker 1: clear at this point. Of course, there's civil charges that
Speaker 1: might be filed, and that's possible, but as far as
Speaker 1: your criminal duties prosecuting under state law, County Pillage said,
Speaker 1: there was no crime committed, and that's.
Speaker 4: Right, and I thank you so much for having me
Speaker 4: on and I look forward to chatting with you about
Speaker 4: cases as we go forward.
Speaker 1: All right, good and you know Rob Sanders, the Kenton
Speaker 1: County prosecutor I talked with over the weekend. He said
Speaker 1: he wants to set up a meeting with you, and
Speaker 1: we'll do that through your staff and Connie Pellach. Once again,
Speaker 1: thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, Connie,
Speaker 1: You're welcome. Thanks Bill, God bless you.
Speaker 2: Bye, let's continue with more. There you have it.
Speaker 1: I'm very encouraged by Connie Pelliche doing this. There was
Speaker 1: a fear that some maybe liberal Democratic prosecutors around the
Speaker 1: nation want to go after cops, but Connie Pellach appears
Speaker 1: not to be one of those. Bill Cunningham News Radio

Speaker 1: the last eleven series with Milwaukee els their own to
Speaker 1: eleven on May first? They've had one winning record in
Speaker 1: the last twelve seasons. Now who starts more poorly? The
Speaker 1: Reds are the Bengals? Well, I mean, right now you
Speaker 1: have to say the Bengals because the games mean a
Speaker 1: lot more.
Speaker 2: Each game's worth about sixteen years.
Speaker 6: One hundred and fifty one more left in baseball, one
Speaker 6: hundred and fifty whatever.
Speaker 7: The problem is, they're not playing well and they're not
Speaker 7: hurt yet. Wait till we get to the part where
Speaker 7: they get over the plans always hurt.
Speaker 1: That's true. You didn't play last year. Now this year
Speaker 1: his hamstring hurts and he's not playing. What about the outfit?
Speaker 1: You got Marte and you have Benson kicking ass and
Speaker 1: in Louisville, why not bring him up? Get them up here.
Speaker 1: We need somebody to hit the ball. Would you agree,

Speaker 6: I guarantee you by if they don't, if they don't
Speaker 6: do anything in San Francisco, by the time they can
Speaker 6: come home to the Pirates this weekend, they'll both be here.
Speaker 1: And Paul Skins is not pitching this weekend. So the
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's won two games, course regser won three.
Speaker 2: So what do you think? Do you have hope? Do
Speaker 2: you have any hope? I have lots of hope.
Speaker 7: That's all good things. You're gonna turn around, that's all.
Speaker 7: It can't get much worse. Flooding, stock market, reds Saint
Speaker 7: X counseling. What's on the big show today?
Speaker 1: We have read out the gate.
Speaker 7: We have Scott Warbman going to talk about the stadium,
Speaker 7: big deal of them, and that's what like, within a
Speaker 7: year we're gonna know are they gonna stay or are
Speaker 7: they gonna go?
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be shocking if they don't. If they say
Speaker 1: by June thirty, say June fifteenth, we're leaving in a
Speaker 1: year that's legal and they're gone, that would be total chaos.
Speaker 1: Now now we got to now we're chaos all of
Speaker 1: a sudden. The commissioners will say.
Speaker 2: Young Gang Gang Yang Gang Gang Yang Yang Yang.
Speaker 7: Now they're playing that card hard and they the first
Speaker 7: time they played it, what about twenty five years ago,
Speaker 7: worked pretty good, real good.
Speaker 1: He showed up in Baltimore. Mike Brown went to Baltimore
Speaker 1: and according to a Chicago story, the Bears won.
Speaker 7: My Scorio is talking about that. They joined two teams
Speaker 7: in Chicago. They have a stadium. What, yeah, they can
Speaker 7: share that.
Speaker 2: What now, what do you say?
Speaker 1: Now do we have chaos big time if we lose
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow?
Speaker 7: So what do you do if you're the if you're
Speaker 7: the tax payer, do you take it in the rear
Speaker 7: again again next to keep the Bengals here, or do
Speaker 7: you say you know we're not. We gotta draw a
Speaker 7: line in the sand. Shut up, we gotta draw a
Speaker 7: line in the sand and the Bengals leave.
Speaker 2: What do you do?
Speaker 3: What do you do?
Speaker 1: I think it's that stadium that's chaos. I would like
Speaker 1: to think some deal can be made where the Bengals
Speaker 1: pay a little bit more, the county pays a little
Speaker 1: bit less.
Speaker 2: Don't present it as a vote.
Speaker 7: The Bengals don't want the county to pay less. They
Speaker 7: want to pay more. You understand that, right, Yeah, ignorant?
Speaker 2: Funny, ignorant.
Speaker 1: Well, I think in reality the Bengals have got to
Speaker 1: pay more in the county pay less. You're telling me
Speaker 1: the Bengals have to pay less than the county's got
Speaker 1: to pay more. If that happens, the taxpayer is gonna
Speaker 1: have a goo go because the taxpayer thing the Bengals
Speaker 1: ought to pay more than the counties how to play less.
Speaker 1: But you're saying, in reality the Bengals should pay less
Speaker 1: than the county should play pay more.
Speaker 7: Is that what you're saying is their's team. They're franchise.
Speaker 7: Shouldn't they pay a little more.
Speaker 2: Six billion dollars? I mean they made made some money,
Speaker 2: didn't they.
Speaker 1: Yeah, seems fair.
Speaker 7: It seems like everybody can can get along and he
Speaker 7: keep some good will with a town that has embraced
Speaker 7: you through thick and thin.
Speaker 1: Well, Mike mcconnall went to Chicago, maybe the Bengals would
Speaker 1: go to Chicago. Would you still root for the Bengals
Speaker 1: if they were in Chicago Bengals?
Speaker 2: No, would you say?
Speaker 1: I go back to route and I guess for the
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns like I did as a kid.
Speaker 2: I rooted a little way too.
Speaker 1: All the Bengals got here in sixty eight. Remember that
Speaker 1: Dick Macheleski, Louke Roza, remember that night, Remember that thirty two?
Speaker 1: How about number forty nine we're talking about? You know
Speaker 1: that we had all the games here, cared about the Browns.
Speaker 1: Now we got the Bengals, and my old coach, Hal
Speaker 1: Pennington gave Paul Brown to name the Bengals hey used
Speaker 1: in the nineteen thirties for a semi pro team here
Speaker 1: called the Bengals.
Speaker 7: Wouldn't be some if the Cleveland Browns stayed in Cleveland
Speaker 7: and the Bengals angles went to Chicago or San Antonio
Speaker 7: or Austin or Mexico.
Speaker 2: This could happen.
Speaker 1: But if they're gonna know, I mean, is anybody paying
Speaker 1: attention to this?
Speaker 2: Sega? Are you paying attention?
Speaker 7: Well, that's why we're gonna have Scott Wartman on the top.
Speaker 7: Is anyone paying attention? I mean if that happened, I
Speaker 7: mean a lot of people in a month would wake
Speaker 7: up and go what he's talking about?
Speaker 1: I just bought my by Joe Burrow.
Speaker 2: Jersey Day, who days, who days?
Speaker 1: In Chicago. That would be a shock. And normally this
Speaker 1: text years. This is going to take by by the
Speaker 1: end end of June, because.
Speaker 7: If they went to Chicago, there's a stadium already ready
Speaker 7: to go, right or they're building one and they need
Speaker 7: another tenant. They're saying, we need another tenant. It's like
Speaker 7: LA's got the two teams Chicago.
Speaker 1: But they could play right away. They wouldn't have to wait.
Speaker 7: They wanted to stay here that they could wait for
Speaker 7: years and years and goo, I mean the stadium's going
Speaker 7: to be under it's like two years, but they could
Speaker 7: extend it for two years.
Speaker 1: That's three years total and move to Chicago. Now where
Speaker 1: are we now?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: We got crises? Would you agree? Can't fathom it? Well,
Speaker 1: you better talk to a warpman about this. I've had
Speaker 1: him on before. He's a good man. He's a good man.
Speaker 2: Something about four o'clock.
Speaker 7: We had Julie Jones talking about workplace etiquette.
Speaker 2: What about that?
Speaker 1: People, You can't drop the for it, don't drop it,
Speaker 1: can't do that. Only women do that in the workplace.
Speaker 7: But cutting your fingernails in your seconds in the workplace.
Speaker 1: I've seen sake two on his toenails in his office.
Speaker 1: Should I say that on him? Yeah?
Speaker 2: He chewing on his toenails in his office.
Speaker 1: That's kind of something you shouldn't do, right, like passing
Speaker 1: gas or something you shouldn't do that, shouldn't do it?
Speaker 7: And no, but there's something funny about in the window
Speaker 7: for you weird. I saw you chewing on your toenails.
