I just didn't know what 83 00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:21.160 to think. I mean, it was just it was just 84 00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:25.720 so surreal, like what am I seeing this? This doesn't happen, 85 00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:30.240 this is this doesn't happen to people I know. This, 86 00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:36.879 this happens to somebody else, doesn't happen to us.

Could you please tell 93 00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:06.319 us what happened? 94 00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:09.800 And then after that I'll ask you to contextualize our 95 00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.639 high school class for everybody that's watching, But could you 96 00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:14.319 please first just tell us what happened? 97 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:18.120 Well, based on what I saw in the news. It 98 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:30.920 was just they found her in a hotel room dead. Apparently, 99 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.920 according to the police, she had been dating this guy 100 00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:38.920 on and off. I think they said for a couple 101 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:44.480 of months. He was a sexual offender. How that was known, 102 00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:49.439 I don't know. Apparently the dad knew. Her dad knew 103 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:55.240 and honestly had asked her not to date him. But 104 00:06:55.720 --> 00:07:02.879 I guess she just didn't see it being an issue. 105 00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:06.399 And here we are to shock. 106 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:12.240 Tony was a tough girl. She was a tough girl 107 00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:17.360 in high school. I think she was fairly people would 108 00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:18.639 have described. 109 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:19.240 Her that way. 110 00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:22.759 She was dating older guys in middle school, and even 111 00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:24.839 in high school she dated guys that were out of 112 00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:27.720 high school. She went to the junior prom with a 113 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:31.079 Marine Corps guy and then another older guy showed up 114 00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:32.360 so as well. 115 00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:34.959 So Tony was a girl that was a tough girl, 116 00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:35.879 that was. 117 00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:40.439 Very comfortable being around guys that might have had some 118 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:44.439 element of danger. And I think that's why when her 119 00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:50.399 father tried to warn her off of this man whose 120 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:51.759 name was Carlos Caban. 121 00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.399 I don't remember his middle name, but. 122 00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:59.680 Is Carlos Caban Tito, Tito, thank you Carlos Tito caban 123 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.279 would I don't know, I don't know be it does 124 00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:04.839 that sound like a Tito's a very popular name in 125 00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:10.399 Puerto Rico, but it could be yeah, But anyway, um, 126 00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.040 and so she probably felt if a situation. 127 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:17.040 Comes up, I can handle it. Now. Tony now has. 128 00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:21.680 Had multiple back surgeries, neck surgeries, and so forth, she 129 00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:25.959 had a lot of problems with her musculo skeletal situation 130 00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:31.759 and that would make her not as capable. And even still, 131 00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:36.440 the police indicated that there was definitely a struggle to 132 00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:40.600 where Tony did not simply give in to whatever he 133 00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:43.720 was trying to do, and she fought, which is the 134 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:47.480 Tony that we know. At one point she fought the biggest, 135 00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:50.200 toughest girl in our high school that would have. 136 00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:56.559 Scared guys and Tony, Tony fought that girl. 137 00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:59.759 So that gives you an idea of you know, Tony 138 00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:05.279 was sort of fearless and in that way. Though those 139 00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.919 of you who don't know my age, I'm coming up 140 00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:11.159 upon my fortieth high school reunion, which is a big deal. 141 00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:17.840 But ors can tell you that we do organize. We 142 00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:23.000 do organize buy annual get togethers with our high school classmates, 143 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.759 one of which culminated in me leaving and heading to 144 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:30.360 Massachusetts to spend the evening with the day and the 145 00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:33.240 evening with you guys instead of going home. 146 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:36.879 But can you explain to. 147 00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:40.960 People what our high school class is like and why 148 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:43.679 this would be a big deal for us. 149 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:50.399 Well, thanks to Dave, you got us together again. Yeah, 150 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:57.840 it's true you did, and unfortunately it started really one 151 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:08.080 another great loss to our family. Andrea, and yeah, I 152 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:12.200 think that's when you started getting us all together and 153 00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:16.360 which it's really been a great thing, and all of 154 00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:19.919 us just really love getting together and seeing one another. 155 00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:23.879 It's very special, it's very unique, it's. 156 00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:25.519 Very we feel very close. 157 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:26.559 We do. 158 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:31.080 Everybody wants to know what's happening with everybody else wherever 159 00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:34.480 they are in the United States, what's going on, And 160 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.519 if you're in the same city as that person, you 161 00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.440 want to go and visit with them or go and 162 00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:40.759 have a. 163 00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:41.559 Hangout with them. 164 00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:47.399 And as Ors did when Tony, she found out Tony 165 00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:51.399 was in Florida and close enough by, they went in, 166 00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:53.519 they hung out, and it's just kind of what people 167 00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:57.480 from our school did. Our school was called Hendrick Hudson 168 00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:03.000 High School, named after the Dutch explode or who sailed 169 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.000 up the Hudson River, and now I'm trying to on 170 00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:06.799 this ship called the half Moon. 171 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:09.480 So a lot of the iconography of my. 172 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:15.720 School is is that the half Moon and so forth. 173 00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:17.960 I'll probably put something up on the screen, put our 174 00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:22.440 school logo up on here, and so instead of seeing 175 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:27.279 Hendrik Kutson, we call ourselves hen Hud short and it 176 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:32.440 there's an immediate connection when you meet somebody from hen 177 00:11:32.519 --> 00:11:38.000 Hud and it's really weird. And to give you sort 178 00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:42.799 of an example, I was in when I was in 179 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.080 southern California. I mean, you couldn't be a whole lot 180 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:47.519 further away from hen Hud than you are in the 181 00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:50.720 United States when you're living in like the Laguna Neguel 182 00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:53.840 Laguna Beach area. And one of my classmates lived a 183 00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:58.159 few towns over in a city called Ladera Ranch, and 184 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:02.080 I remember going over for her birthday because her birthday 185 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:05.799 is also my birthday. So I went over to her 186 00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:09.360 how her beautiful home for a party, and there's a 187 00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:11.240 pool there and it's just like wow, you know what 188 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:15.240 I mean. And when I went there, there were two 189 00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:20.039 women there from home that she had said, Oh, here's 190 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:22.039 so and so and so and so. I didn't even 191 00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:24.600 know them, but as soon as I knew they were 192 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.480 from hen Hud, it was like two magnets coming together. 193 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:30.720 And the only people that I wanted to talk to 194 00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:35.440 that night was Sharon, the girl who had the party, 195 00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:39.519 and those two ladies from hen Hud, And I don't 196 00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.120 even know who they are, and I don't care who 197 00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:43.559 they are, but those are the three people that I 198 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:45.799 wanted to hang out with. And I really didn't care 199 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:49.879 about talking to anybody else at the party, so that 200 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:53.559 giving and I was constantly with, you know, like with 201 00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:57.759 my arm out with Sharon, you know, just I can't 202 00:12:57.759 --> 00:13:00.480 really explain it, But did I explain?

She fought her way out of that. 338 00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:22.319 The the types of medication that they give you for 339 00:21:22.400 --> 00:21:26.720 a back injury can get you hooked on these medications 340 00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:31.000 because when your back hurts, anybody here who has hurt 341 00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:35.559 their lower back or hurt their backs, you can't do anything. 342 00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:39.319 You can't do anything, you can't move, you can barely 343 00:21:39.359 --> 00:21:41.559 get out of bed.

You just made a bad choice, like 349 00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:05.359 all of us, do you know, we all make bad choices. 350 00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:09.559 We don't often pay for those with our lives. 351 00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:16.079 We all have put ourselves orse.
