WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:08.880 on the iHeartRadio app. Well, this point, it's the biggest 4 00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:12.679 news we've had in terms of this man hunt. They 5 00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.160 do have a guy in custody for questioning matches the description. 6 00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.320 He was apprehended in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Adam McDonald's people called 7 00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:23.679 him in, said he was suspicious and they are questioning 8 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:28.239 him over evidence that links him to this murder. They 9 00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.160 said he was found with a same or similar gun 10 00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:34.240 to the one used in the slaughter there in midtown 11 00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:37.240 Manhattan silencer, as well as a fake ID. 12 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:45.039 Police have apparently found a document railing against the healthcare 13 00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:46.280 industry on that. 14 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.159 Guy, wow and all of the things. 15 00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.200 CNN is reporting that he has officially been arrested on 16 00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:53.520 the gun related charges. 17 00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:56.759 Certainly sounds like a bunch of things that were planted 18 00:00:56.759 --> 00:00:57.880 on a fall guy. To me. 19 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:03.479 There are still dive teams in Central Park looking for 20 00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:05.959 evidence they were originally looking through. There's a couple of 21 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.920 lakes there, one really big one looking for a potential 22 00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:12.239 murder weapon. And then today is also a private funeral 23 00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:16.519 for Brian Thompson, the guy who was killed. I guess 24 00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:21.680 in Altoona they're waiting for NYPD detectives to show up. 25 00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:23.879 I don't know if that means that at some point 26 00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.640 today we're going to hear from them. They're going they'll 27 00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:29.400 explain who this guy is or why they picked them up, 28 00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:31.480 and what the plan is going forward. 29 00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:33.719 But that is a significant development. 30 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.640 The aftershocks from last week seven point zero earthquake up 31 00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:42.439 North still happening. About two dozen tumblers have hit in 32 00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.920 the past twenty four hours, ranging from two point six 33 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.599 to four point three. All were about fifty or more 34 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:50.560 miles out to sea. 35 00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:55.879 However, a bid buy the Onion to buy Alex Jones 36 00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:59.599 in full Wars platform is scheduled to return to a 37 00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:03.239 Texas courtroom today. A judge is deciding whether the bankruptcy 38 00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.719 auction was properly run. Jones has said that it was 39 00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.520 all about collusion and that there was fraud involved, But 40 00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:12.599 a bankruptcy judge is hearing testimony about this auction from 41 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:16.639 last month how a trustee chose the Onion over the 42 00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:19.800 only other bidder, which was a company that's been affiliated 43 00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:22.879 with Alex Jones that offered actually twice as much money 44 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.599 as did the Onion to buy that website. 45 00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:30.439 The National Weather Service has issued a rare particularly Dangerous 46 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:35.199 Situation red flag warning those are their words, Particularly dangerous 47 00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.039 situation red flag warning for the coming days in La 48 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:39.199 and Ventura counties. 49 00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:43.039 Yeah, this along with the normal red flag warning. The 50 00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:47.199 particularly dangerous situation as they say, the PDS. 51 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:49.360 Is that what they call it in the bizs. It's 52 00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:51.719 probably something like that, or yeah. 53 00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:57.319 Bob, we got a PDS par dan sit particularly dangerous 54 00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:00.680 situation par dans partan I like that expected to start 55 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.879 about ten o'clock tonight and last through tomorrow afternoon. And 56 00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:06.719 the extreme fire weather could be similar in magnitude to 57 00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.680 the Santa event sorry, Santa Anna wind event that we 58 00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:15.000 saw on election Day. I called Santa Anne started the 59 00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:22.560 mountain fire or the man fur windy, dry vegetation, desiccating conditions. 60 00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:26.479 That's a desicating is a great word. Good job, wrong, 61 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:27.520 goong Limb two. 62 00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.719 Southern California's second most destructive fire since twenty thirteen, of course, 63 00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:37.039 which was the Thomas Fire, the of course Woolsey fire 64 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:41.000 in twenty eighteen. Also, okay, this is proof some of 65 00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:44.560 our most devastating fires have come in the month of December, 66 00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.800 as weird as that sounds, but it's before really the 67 00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:50.560 rainy season really kicks in, so we have an opportunity 68 00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.879 to or the nature has an opportunity to kind of 69 00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:54.719 refresh itself. 70 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:56.560 So it's still very, very dry. 71 00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.439 Sinking wind blows at high speeds out to the beaches, 72 00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:04.039 generally in the northeast to southwest direction. They're talking about 73 00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:07.000 gusts as high as eighty miles an hour. One of 74 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:10.039 the areas to watch is the Santa Clara River Valley, 75 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.159 which goes from the Santa Clarita area all the way 76 00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:16.720 out to Ventura, So along the one twenty six there 77 00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:18.519 is one of the areas that they're keeping an eye on. 78 00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:20.839 Desicate is your word of the day? 79 00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:25.600 Kids? Desicate? We should do words of the day. You 80 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:29.639 just did, yes, Desicate to remove the moisture from something, 81 00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.839 to cause it to become completely dry. 82 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:34.120 Desicate. 83 00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:37.639 A man being questioned today and the killing of that 84 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:42.439 United Healthcare CEO, as you mentioned, did have writings that 85 00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:45.040 appeared to be critical of the health insurance industry. 86 00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:47.519 This is either way too. 87 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.199 Convenient because he also had a gun thought to be 88 00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.160 similar to the one using the killing, he had a 89 00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.040 fake ID. The way the hostel reported the guy checked 90 00:04:55.040 --> 00:05:00.000 in with a fake ID and writings now that appear 91 00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.240 to be critical of the of the industry. You're say 92 00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:03.720 it's too convenient. 93 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:05.240 If you were going to set up a patsy, those 94 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.319 are exactly the things that you would give the guy. 95 00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:11.319 Yeah, or he wanted to be found. 96 00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:13.480 He was dying to be found. 97 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.480 He was dying to be found with all the evidence 98 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.120 that they could just button this thing right up in 99 00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:19.600 a pretty little package. 100 00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:20.040 With a bow on it. 101 00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:24.079 Listen, we had said multiple times that had to be 102 00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.160 the obvious reason the guy was targeted was something to 103 00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.079 do with the insurance industry, whether it was somebody whose 104 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:34.360 coverage was denied or somebody whose Families Members coverage was denied, 105 00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:38.160 and this guy was getting revenge. But the NYPD kept saying, 106 00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:40.759 we don't know what the motive is. Maybe we don't, 107 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:43.240 and he was getting upset. I mean, if your point 108 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:45.279 is right that he wants to have been caught, he 109 00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.879 was getting upset. He wants his day in court because 110 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.040 he wants to be able to have the platform to 111 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:51.480 rail against the insurance industry. 112 00:05:51.519 --> 00:05:53.399 Then why didn't he give himself up. Why did he 113 00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:57.199 go on the lamb for six days? Why didn't he 114 00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:59.879 just shoot that guy and then sit down with this 115 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.399 sign that says you're killing many more people than this 116 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:04.519 or something, you know what I. 117 00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:06.079 Mean, Like, why not I only killed one? 118 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.839 But just why not make a big deal if you 119 00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:11.959 want to be found out, be found out. Why put 120 00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:14.920 yourself through going on the run for six days? It's 121 00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:15.800 all very odd. 122 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:17.680 Speaking of odd. 123 00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:21.959 Odd, holy cow, Hanikobayashi, this woman from Maui was headed 124 00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:23.879 to New York. She got off the plane at LAX 125 00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:26.759 and didn't go anywhere else. The LAPD says that this 126 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:33.000 woman has voluntarily disappeared herself. She's a voluntary missing person, 127 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:36.160 although her family has loudly proclaimed that she may be 128 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:39.839 in danger or may be in the midst of being 129 00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.519 taken advantage of by some dark powers out there trying 130 00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.199 to take her money or do something with her or whatever. 131 00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:51.360 Well, apparently she met someone at LAX. This was before, 132 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.680 as the LAPD reported, she walked into Mexico on her 133 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:59.519 own volition and vanished. She spent the night in la 134 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:04.399 with a she happened to meet near the airport. Apparently 135 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.000 the two formed a quick bond after crossing paths and 136 00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.120 then spent about nine hours together. They walked through downtown LA. 137 00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:17.639 They meandered their way to Union Station. They fell asleep there. Again, 138 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:19.759 we don't know if they fell asleep for a night, 139 00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:21.720 because somebody had called in and said they closed down 140 00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:24.519 Union Station for the night. You need a ticket to 141 00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:27.319 even be a even be there from like a ticket 142 00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:29.120 from like one am to four am or something like that. 143 00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:31.439 But they could have fallen asleep in the middle of 144 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.040 the day. It doesn't tell you what time, right, this 145 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:40.680 guy is a oh no, she is a thirty Now 146 00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.879 they say she's a photographer and a smoke shop employee. 147 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:48.360 I've not heard that. I had not heard that either. 148 00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:52.439 Do we know more about what the guy does or well. 149 00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:53.360 Well, here's the thing. 150 00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:55.240 They did interview this guy, and they said that they 151 00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:57.439 knew about him pretty early on. Obviously, some of the 152 00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:02.319 images you could see that they were walking, they were together, smiling, smiling. 153 00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.600 One of the detectives in the Missing Persons unit said 154 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:08.319 that there were days and days where there's as many 155 00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:10.639 reasons that something could have gone totally wrong as there 156 00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:12.160 were that everything was okay. 157 00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:14.360 So that's where we live in that middle. 158 00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:16.959 That's where we've had to keep moving on facts, just 159 00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:19.040 move on to what the next fact will lead us to. 160 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:23.120 And they said that they when they learn more. They 161 00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:26.680 figured out the relationship between this guy and Hanna Kobayashi. 162 00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:31.480 So he and Kobyashi met at LAX's train stop and 163 00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:35.840 struck up a conversation about nine pm, they say, local time, 164 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:40.799 November eleventh. She was leaving the airport. He was going 165 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:43.080 to help her get to Union Station. She was trying 166 00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:45.000 to figure out how to get to Union Station, and 167 00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:49.440 he was going to help her get there. The detective says, 168 00:08:49.919 --> 00:08:52.279 for the amount of time they spent together, he pretty 169 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:55.559 much was an ear to listen. She just spoke and 170 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:58.120 talked about her life in Maui, her personal life, her 171 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:00.519 love life, and so forth, and he just listened to her. 172 00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.159 Isn't that lovely a man that listens? 173 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.720 What say it again? They've all they have talked to 174 00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:09.639 this guy twice. I mean, obviously you're going to want 175 00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.200 to check out the story and make sure that there 176 00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:13.639 is nothing untoward. And they say pretty clearly that this 177 00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:15.720 was just a happenstance encounter. 178 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.279 He said that she was a free spirit, that she 179 00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.759 seemed coherent and normal. She did not seem scared. She 180 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:24.759 wanted to go see the Redwoods, mentioned plans to be 181 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:29.600 in New York. They spent several more hours at Union Station. 182 00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.600 They ate dinner there, they went to sleep in a 183 00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:34.000 waiting area. 184 00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:38.159 And then she got up, she got her stuff, and 185 00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:39.399 she walked out on her own. 186 00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.120 Missed connections. 187 00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:44.679 She bought a bus ticket about six in the morning 188 00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.799 November twelfth, got on the bus after that, arrived at 189 00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:51.480 the border about four hours after that, walked into Tijuana 190 00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:52.320 at about noon. 191 00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:53.799 Look at her live in her life. 192 00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:57.360 What a strong, independent, single woman. 193 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.840 Because this guy's not accused of anything. They're not telling 194 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.200 us who he is. I mean, he's not a suspect 195 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:07.559 or anything like that, so they have no reason to 196 00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:11.879 reveal his identity. But at this point, of course we've 197 00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.480 said this multiple times, the family believes that she may 198 00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:18.080 be in danger. She may be trying to get away 199 00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.240 from an over protective, overbearing family. 200 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:21.799 You know. 201 00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:25.320 The side note of tragedy that was her own father 202 00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:27.320 having committed suicide in the midst of all of this 203 00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:31.000 makes it that much weirder and sad for the family. 204 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:34.519 But in all honesty, it doesn't look like she's. But 205 00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:37.039 I don't know the rom com version of this, where 206 00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.480 I just meet somebody and then spend all day with them. 207 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.080 There's spent many, many, many rom coms that follow that 208 00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:44.200 exact plot line. 209 00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:46.360 Well, we've done these stories before. 210 00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:48.759 We've talked about people meeting on airplanes or something like 211 00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.639 that and then living happily ever after or whatever. And 212 00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:54.879 when I, when I broke off an engagement, flew back 213 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:57.039 from Chicago, I sat next to a woman who'd had 214 00:10:57.080 --> 00:11:01.000 done the exact same thing with her in Milwaukee. 215 00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:02.879 And you still think of her to this day. I 216 00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:05.320 still know I do not. I do not. 217 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:06.759 She wasn't your type. 218 00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:08.399 Though, from what I was not my type at all. 219 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:11.759 But she didn't give me a ride back to to 220 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:13.559 Chico from the Sacramento airport. 221 00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:16.440 That is a long drive. She was hoping to get 222 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:17.200 a little. 223 00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:19.120 Action, No, because her sister was the one that drove 224 00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:22.279 us actually, so I think she wanted to get in there. 225 00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:27.240 All this it was years ago, it was probably weren't overalls. 226 00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:32.200 Oh so I think that was that answers, That doesn't it. 227 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.480 Matt took us to a dive bar in Kansas City 228 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.600 called the Peanut, where everything was dirty, and they had wings. 229 00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:40.519 The size of your forehead. 230 00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:42.559 It was. 231 00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:45.159 I was, as I thought, you like this place, you 232 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:46.559 like a dive bar, And I said. 233 00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:47.399 But not to eat. 234 00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:51.879 You look a little hepatitis today. I know, I know, 235 00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:54.159 I can see I didn't get into that stuff. I 236 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.720 had a couple of fries, right, but I wasn't going 237 00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:58.279 to get into those wings. I don't know the pain 238 00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:00.120 of custody on those wings, because it's. 239 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.759 It's a dive bar. I mean it's a real dive bar. 240 00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:06.759 And the tables are dirty, and the menus are just 241 00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:09.559 like a piece of paper that's been around and it's 242 00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.039 stained and it's it's dirty. And all that was on 243 00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:17.519 the menu were like wings and fries, like meat nachos. 244 00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:21.440 And the waitress was going through something. I don't know 245 00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:23.799 what was happening there. She was very efficient. Did she 246 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:25.960 have a side ponytail. 247 00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:27.240 Kind of yeah, that kind of whole thing. 248 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:31.120 And they said that it took about thirty five minutes 249 00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:32.639 for the wings to get to the table. 250 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:34.960 Yeah. 251 00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:37.679 I don't know what animal those wings came from. I 252 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:39.679 also don't know the chain of custody on the wings. 253 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:41.840 Did they not make them there? Did they go get 254 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:45.159 them and then bring them. Was it someone's house? Was 255 00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:47.720 it a trailer out back where the wings were prepared 256 00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:50.080 and fried and then brought in. And that's why it 257 00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:53.320 takes so long. I've never waited so long for wings ever. 258 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:54.639 It was like forty minutes. 259 00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:58.600 It was crazy. What's the deal with that? I don't know. 260 00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:01.320 So I've been thinking about them that I didn't have there. 261 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:05.039 Mine was much more satisfying. I'll tell you that. 262 00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:09.639 We are following developments in the murder of United Healthcare 263 00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:12.759 CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. This morning, just 264 00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:14.679 before the show started, we found out that a guy 265 00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:19.759 in Pennsylvania had been subject to questioning because apparently people 266 00:13:19.799 --> 00:13:23.320 in a McDonald's in Altoona thought that he looked like 267 00:13:23.399 --> 00:13:26.000 the pictures that the NYPD has been putting out of 268 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:29.840 the suspect here. He apparently also had a similar gun 269 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:32.840 as the one used in the assassination style killing. He 270 00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:38.279 may have had also writings on him that railed against 271 00:13:38.279 --> 00:13:42.279 the insurance industry. That would make sense. So cnnis officially 272 00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.919 said that he'd been arrested on gun related charges, and 273 00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:49.559 Fox News is reporting that the NYPD is officially calling 274 00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:53.320 him a suspect in this case. The private funeral, by 275 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:55.240 the way for Brian Thompson is going to be held today. 276 00:13:55.279 --> 00:13:57.919 The Mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, is holding 277 00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:00.000 a news conference unrelated to this, but we do it 278 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:04.039 expect him to make some comments on these developments in 279 00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:06.240 a few minutes when he takes to the podium. 280 00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:10.039 Keana was able to track down an article from nineteen 281 00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:14.200 eighty three in the Daily Pilot about a man in 282 00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:18.399 Newport Beach who was murdered. Robbery appears to have been 283 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:21.519 ruled out as the motive in the brutal beating death 284 00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:25.080 of a thirty five year old Newport beachman found Wednesday 285 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.879 face down in a hallway of his Newport Shores home. 286 00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:32.240 Ronald Gaski clubbed in the head and face, they said, 287 00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:36.440 with an unknown object. They described him as a very 288 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:43.279 security conscience, sorry, security conscious person who had an elaborate 289 00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:47.639 alarm system. And it's weird to me because I don't 290 00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:51.720 I didn't think people had a home security systems in 291 00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:55.320 nineteen eighty three. I am just obviously not old enough 292 00:14:55.320 --> 00:15:00.559 to remember that. Thankfully, not that several neighbors. It would 293 00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:03.519 have been unlike him to leave his residence unlocked, so 294 00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:07.000 they don't know why, why, or what it was that 295 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:09.759 happened that night. In nineteen eighty three, it. 296 00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:12.039 Was a former girlfriend that went to his home to 297 00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:13.919 check on him after he didn't show up for his 298 00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:16.320 construction job, found him dead there. 299 00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:18.960 According to this initial report from nineteen. 300 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:23.759 Eighty three, now exactly forty one years later, they believe 301 00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:27.039 that they have a suspect. They have arrested a man 302 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:32.200 in Huntington Beach, Michael Manette, seventy years old, arrested on Friday. 303 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:35.559 They're not telling us how they connected him or what 304 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.399 led to that, what their relationship was. 305 00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:38.039 Nothing. 306 00:15:38.440 --> 00:15:42.639 You got to believe it's some sort of genetic DNA, right, Can. 307 00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:44.879 We take that? Jacob? You have any chance? I got 308 00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:46.240 that CNN up right there. 309 00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:48.879 The mayor of New York City has been talking about 310 00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:53.120 the person of interest that's been picked up in picked 311 00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:55.360 up in Altoona, Pa. 312 00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:56.879 Let's see if I can find it. I've got a 313 00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:00.159 couple of defectives. Here you go, we'll go over there. 314 00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:04.039 We are right now in the investigation. He matches the 315 00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:09.879 description of the identification we've been looking for. He's also 316 00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:14.399 in possession of several items that we believe will connect 317 00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:16.840 him to this incident. 318 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:19.600 How did we do it? 319 00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:25.559 A good old fashioned police work. The Chief of Detectives 320 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:31.159 and the Police Commissioner made the decision to release as 321 00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:34.120 much of a photo that we had at the time, 322 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:39.960 We sent it across the country and someone, a McDonald's employee, 323 00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:43.720 did something we asked every American to do. If you 324 00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:48.879 see something, say something, but most importantly, do something, and 325 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.159 they did and because of that, we believe we have 326 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:55.000 a strong person of interest to deal with this case. 327 00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:57.759 I want to now turn it over to the Police. 328 00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:08.000 Commission of the City of New York, Commissioner Tish. 329 00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:08.599 Easy on that podium, Thank you, mayor good afternoon everyone. 330 00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:12.920 Earlier this morning in Altoona, Pennsylvania, members of the Altoona 331 00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:18.200 Police Department arrested Luigi Mangioni, a twenty six year old 332 00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:22.400 mail on firearms charges. At this time, he is believed 333 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:26.079 to be our person of interest in the brazen targeted 334 00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:31.279 murder of Brian Thompson, CEO of United Healthcare last Wednesday 335 00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:35.240 in midtown Manhattan. The suspect was in a McDonald's and 336 00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:39.279 was recognized by an employee, who then called local police. 337 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:44.480 Responding officers questioned the suspect, who was acting suspiciously and 338 00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:49.319 was carrying multiple fraudulent IDs as well as a US passport. 339 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:54.480 Upon further investigation, officers recovered a firearm on his person 340 00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:58.400 as well as a suppressor, both consistent with the weapon 341 00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:02.960 used in the murder. They also recovered clothing, including a mask, 342 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:08.599 consistent with those worn by our wanted individual. Also recovered 343 00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:12.920 was a fraudulent New Jersey ID, matching the ID our 344 00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:17.200 suspect used to check into his New York City hostel 345 00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:23.279 before the shooting incident. Additionally, officers recovered a handwritten document 346 00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:29.319 that speaks to both his motivation and mindset. NYPD detectives 347 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:33.640 are en route to Pennsylvania as we speak to as 348 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:38.079 we seek to interview this subject further. This apprehension is 349 00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.279 thanks to the tireless work of the greatest detectives in 350 00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:44.920 the world, and of course, the strong relationships we have 351 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:50.799 with our local law enforcement partners. On every level, local, state, 352 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:54.680 and federal. We all serve the same public safety mission, 353 00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:58.839 and this case, which captured the attention of an entire nation, 354 00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:03.160 is another example of how connected we are and how 355 00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:07.839 important it is to work together, share information, and pursue 356 00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:13.640 every lead For just over five days. Our NYPD investigators 357 00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:17.920 comb through thousands of hours of video, followed up on 358 00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:22.319 hundreds of tips, and processed every bit of forensic evidence 359 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:28.160 DNA fingerprints, IP addresses, and so much more. To tighten 360 00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:33.079 the net, we deployed drones, canine units, and scuba divers. 361 00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:37.319 We leveraged the domain awareness system, our GIST cameras, and 362 00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:42.200 conducted aviation canvases. And our detectives also went door to door, 363 00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:46.720 interviewing potential witnesses and doing the good, old fashioned police 364 00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:51.279 work that our investigators are famous for. This combination of 365 00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:55.079 old school detective work and new age technology is what 366 00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:58.839 led to this result today, and we must also acknowledge 367 00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:03.200 the instrumental role the media and the public played in 368 00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:06.720 this case. The images that we shared with the public 369 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:10.880 were spread far and wide, and the tips we received 370 00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:14.759 led to the recovery of crucial evidence. We should never 371 00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:18.079 underestimate the power of the public to be our eyes 372 00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:20.400 and our ears in these investigations. 373 00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:21.960 This is the. 374 00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:24.920 Third time in three weeks that a member of the 375 00:20:24.920 --> 00:20:29.119 public has seen something, and said something and done something 376 00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:33.400 that led to a high profile arrest. The triple stabbing 377 00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:37.759 homicide in Manhattan, the gunpoint robberies in Queen's during which 378 00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:42.000 an NYPD officer was shot, and now this. Now the 379 00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.759 case will continue through the criminal justice process, and while 380 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.960 we are proud of today's accomplishment, we must, of course 381 00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:52.680 remember that a family is in mourning. I want to 382 00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:57.079 again extend my sympathies to Brian's family, co workers, and 383 00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.160 all who knew him. Finally, I want to thank the 384 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:05.160 women and men of the NYPD, especially our detective bureau personnel, 385 00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:10.119 with a strong assist from our intelligence analysts. We also 386 00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:14.319 thank the SAC of the FBI's Criminal Investigative Division, Leslie 387 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:19.519 Rodriguez Bekshi's and I want to commend the staff of 388 00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:24.799 the Manhattan DA's office and especially DA Alvin Bragg. He 389 00:21:24.839 --> 00:21:27.559 has been working with us twenty four to seven on 390 00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:31.279 this case, and I am incredibly grateful for his partnership. 391 00:21:31.440 --> 00:21:33.000 All Right, that's Jessica Tish again. 392 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:36.359 The New York City Police Commissioner said that the suspect 393 00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:39.799 that they have taken into custody in Pennsylvania is a 394 00:21:39.880 --> 00:21:42.240 twenty six year old Luigi Mangione. 395 00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:47.720 I have activated my female digging what I do for 396 00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:50.839 all my single girlfriends. This guy seems to have been 397 00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:55.759 a genius. Valedictorian at his high school. Gave a speech 398 00:21:55.839 --> 00:22:01.680 at his graduation also about maintaining tradition, pioneering innovations. He 399 00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:05.240 was going to study engineering. He is somebody who has 400 00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:11.839 quoted Jonathan Height on digital security. 401 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:12.440
