00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:07.719
<v Speaker 1>What is your problem? You actually started it. You started it.

2
00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:11.679
<v Speaker 2>We were sitting here minding our own business, looking around.

3
00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:16.079
<v Speaker 3>Now the day you guys deserve it was the dramatic

4
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:18.839
<v Speaker 3>into a story that shook the community of Crito's and

5
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 3>destroyed a family. Police were trying to id the pair.

6
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:26.039
<v Speaker 3>That viewer immediately called the Sheriff's department to say they

7
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 3>had seen the couple on TikTok.

8
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Try it, we'll see what happened.

9
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:35.719
<v Speaker 4>Hey, you and welcome. My name is Mike, and in

10
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:39.520
<v Speaker 4>this old video, you know, TikTok is a very weird place,

11
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.479
<v Speaker 4>if you can believe that. I think some of the

12
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 4>strangest stories I've told come from there, and people will share,

13
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.079
<v Speaker 4>you know, all sorts of things there, sometimes hidden in

14
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:49.280
<v Speaker 4>plain sight, while on the other side of the camera

15
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:52.640
<v Speaker 4>there are some dark secrets. Today I've got four stories

16
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:56.719
<v Speaker 4>for you, some short, some a little longer. All originated

17
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:01.719
<v Speaker 4>there with some TikToker solving another's leading to some horrifying ends.

18
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 4>And once again I'm going to go through this Iceberg style,

19
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:06.680
<v Speaker 4>with each story I tell being a little bit more

20
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.280
<v Speaker 4>disturbing than the last. But before we get into all

21
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:12.480
<v Speaker 4>of that, please subscribe to see new stories for the

22
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:15.719
<v Speaker 4>dark every single week. Now let's give it a.

<v Speaker 12>Pretty cool day two, Brian is changing out the alternator belt. Hi,

48
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:35.360
<v Speaker 12>sexy day, hurry, Oh, it's been an event.

49
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:38.759
<v Speaker 1>Brian fell through the front window.

50
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 7>Our head sail won't roll it.

51
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 5>That's an exhausted chaptain, but a live one.

52
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:48.240
<v Speaker 9>Mm hmm.

53
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:50.759
<v Speaker 1>Sorry for.

54
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 4>Brian had worked as an AT and T repairman. Wellnette's

55
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.879
<v Speaker 4>not quite sure, but whatever it was, she said, it

56
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.879
<v Speaker 4>was awesome. That was well until she quote quit my

57
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.759
<v Speaker 4>awesome career, sold my house and gave everything away I

58
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 4>owned to cruise. The pair had been sailing for a decade,

59
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:21.000
<v Speaker 4>documenting almost every step. That final step, though, would be

60
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 4>taken in April twenty twenty six, just two days after

61
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.399
<v Speaker 4>this TikTok was posted. You know, they had their entire

62
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 4>lives online, showing the world simply, you know, share yourself everything,

63
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:39.920
<v Speaker 4>what they were doing, where they were and sometimes right,

64
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 4>if you can believe it, that's not the best, it's

65
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:45.120
<v Speaker 4>not really the best idea. For example, right, feast your

66
00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:49.319
<v Speaker 4>eyes on this is a report from a data broker.

67
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.759
<v Speaker 4>The amount of actual like information it hasn't it personal information.

68
00:04:53.319 --> 00:05:02.199
<v Speaker 4>It's pretty staggering. We got email addresses, relatives, relatives, associates, jobs, education, neighbors,

69
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:06.360
<v Speaker 4>even social media handles photographs, they can see what Janagan

70
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:09.600
<v Speaker 4>looks like. All this info, which could easily be yours,

71
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:14.160
<v Speaker 4>is gathered from data brokers, an insanely disturbing and predatory

72
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:18.079
<v Speaker 4>business model. They are absolutely mad for your personal and

73
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 4>your private information. You're probably not like mad to give

74
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:23.920
<v Speaker 4>it to them. I can guess you're feeling that. Records

75
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:26.600
<v Speaker 4>get leaked and stolen from databases all the time, and

76
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:30.000
<v Speaker 4>there are plenty of willing buyers. Data brokers cannot only

77
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:33.360
<v Speaker 4>leak your private information, data brokers also profit from it,

78
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 4>and I'm talking billions with every year. It's insanely damaging.

79
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:39.720
<v Speaker 4>But that's the modern world, ain't.

80
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:40.639
<v Speaker 5>That just the way?

81
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:43.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean, what else are you gonna do live offline

82
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:47.360
<v Speaker 4>with no online presence whatsoever? You'd go simply crazy. You

83
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:50.120
<v Speaker 4>need a service that protects your privacy without you having

84
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.639
<v Speaker 4>to go to live in a cave, because honestly, I'm

85
00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:54.120
<v Speaker 4>not sure if you have it in you. And that

86
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 4>is where today's sponsor AURA is here to help. Aura

87
00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:01.000
<v Speaker 4>is continuously fighting to get your information removed from data

89
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 4>private and safe. There are other companies that offer this service,

90
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:10.839
<v Speaker 4>but none absolutely that many. That's a zero offer the

91
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.399
<v Speaker 4>complete service that Aura does. Aura is a US based

92

00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:21.920

<v Speaker 4>get real time fraud alerts for credit and banking, identity theft.

102
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:49.639
<v Speaker 4>any kind of web they can get into foot or

103
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:52.879

121
00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:53.800
<v Speaker 4>Ura for sponsoring this old video. Now let's get back

122
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.000
<v Speaker 4>to it. It was seven thirty pm a beautiful sunset

123
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:59.560
<v Speaker 4>in the Bahamas and the hookers were parked up in

124
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:02.920
<v Speaker 4>Elbow Key. They left the Soulmate there as they headed

125
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.240
<v Speaker 4>to Hopetown for dinner and a couple of drinks at

126
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 4>the Abaco Inn. They reportedly had a great time by

127
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:11.279
<v Speaker 4>the staff who worked there. They had this little old

128
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.160
<v Speaker 4>dinghy that they were using to park from Hopetown where

129
00:08:14.199 --> 00:08:16.639
<v Speaker 4>they went out for dinner, to Elbow Key, where the

130
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:19.680
<v Speaker 4>boat was anchored. It's about a half mile trip. However,

131
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:21.920
<v Speaker 4>it was noted that the weather was not great at

132
00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:25.199
<v Speaker 4>the time. In fact, on their TikTok they commented that

133
00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:27.920
<v Speaker 4>they were looking for a weather window to head back.

134
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.560
<v Speaker 4>After dinner. At around seven thirty pm, they got back

135
00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:34.080
<v Speaker 4>into their little dinghy to go back to the Soulmate

136
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.960
<v Speaker 4>where they would spend the night. However, as they were crossing,

137
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:42.559
<v Speaker 4>Brian says, a great swell hit their little dinghy and

138
00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:46.039
<v Speaker 4>Lynette fell from the dinghy into the water. Brian tried

139
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:48.320
<v Speaker 4>to grab her, but a strong current just whisked her

140
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.840
<v Speaker 4>away and he quickly lost sight of her in the dark.

141
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:53.679
<v Speaker 4>Thing was Lynette also had the keys, so when she

142
00:08:53.840 --> 00:08:57.519
<v Speaker 4>was swept overboard their little dinghy, it lost PARA two.

143
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.159
<v Speaker 4>So Brian was stranded on the small little dinghy with

144
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.240
<v Speaker 4>no idea where his wife was. As the currents just

145
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:06.879
<v Speaker 4>whisked him away. He was literally up shit Creek without

146
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:11.399
<v Speaker 4>a paddle. He lit a flare nothing he managed to

147
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:14.480
<v Speaker 4>make it too shore across in Marsh Harbor and raise

148
00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:17.840
<v Speaker 4>the alarm. The Hopetown Volunteer Fire and Rescue were notified

149
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Speaker 4>at five twelve am, and Lynette had gone into the

150
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:23.360
<v Speaker 4>water sometime after seven thirty pm, though he said he

151
00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:26.200
<v Speaker 4>was paddling and drifting four hours, nine of them, if

152
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:28.360
<v Speaker 4>you can believe that, to the other side of the bay,

153
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.440
<v Speaker 4>and the search began. Initially it lasted six hours and

154
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.039
<v Speaker 4>extensive six errors, but no sign of her.

155
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:36.519
<v Speaker 10>Had the boat key in her hand when she fell,

156
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:39.919
<v Speaker 10>which caused the boat to stop, so her husband reportedly

157
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:43.360
<v Speaker 10>paddled back to a marina to get help. A rescue

158
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.879
<v Speaker 10>boat searched the water for five hours. We've now learned

159
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:48.799
<v Speaker 10>that an aircraft is going to be sent out in

160
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 10>this search as well. We'll keep you posted.

161
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:55.919
<v Speaker 5>I will always think there was something I could have

162
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:56.639
<v Speaker 5>done differently.

163
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:02.240
<v Speaker 13>My one job, and one job was to look out

164
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:05.600
<v Speaker 13>for her, and that has not happened.

165
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:08.159
<v Speaker 14>And I'm going to keep looking out for her now.

166
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:09.240
<v Speaker 6>It's best baking.

167
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:10.679
<v Speaker 5>I don't have a wife.

168
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:20.360
<v Speaker 4>From the get go, as you can imagine, people had questions.

169
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:24.279
<v Speaker 4>She fell into the water, shallow water, this very very

170
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:28.600
<v Speaker 4>shallow water area. In fact, here comes Mike's maps and

171
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.639
<v Speaker 4>where she fell into the water. Right, yes, I'm my

172
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:33.919
<v Speaker 4>blue pen is out of ink. Get over it. There

173
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:38.240
<v Speaker 4>was land all around. So this is marsh Harbor. This

174
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:41.840
<v Speaker 4>is Elbow Key here and Hopetown is here. There was

175
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:44.480
<v Speaker 4>like land, these little islands. This is a big sandbar

176
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:46.879
<v Speaker 4>that was in the middle of the area. It's kind

177
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:48.840
<v Speaker 4>of hard to imagine here she got swept out to sea.

178
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:51.879
<v Speaker 4>She was also an experienced sailor, so that's weird. Now,

179
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.639
<v Speaker 4>just to give you guys some frame of reference, the

180
00:10:53.639 --> 00:10:56.440
<v Speaker 4>Abbaco Inn is right here. That's where they went for dinner.

181
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.080
<v Speaker 4>The sole Maate, the ship they were going to, was

182
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:01.399
<v Speaker 4>packed up here, so they were just going around here

183
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 4>right half mile trip allegedly, yet they got swept out

184
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:07.679
<v Speaker 4>all the way over here. This is over here is

185
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:11.639
<v Speaker 4>where Brian ended up. Lynette allegedly got swept out to sea,

186
00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 4>where again they're surrounded by sandburs. She was taken out

187
00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:17.360
<v Speaker 4>by the current, but the boat, with no controls or anything,

188
00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:20.159
<v Speaker 4>was taken in the complete opposite direction. Now, of course,

189
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:22.080
<v Speaker 4>the current can take you one way, the wind can

190
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:24.360
<v Speaker 4>take you a different way. And locals would say the

191
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:26.399
<v Speaker 4>weather was bad that night. It's also weird that the

192
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:29.080
<v Speaker 4>dinghy had no radio. But a yeah, that's about that's

193
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:32.000
<v Speaker 4>about the height of it. That's what Brian says. Anyway,

194
00:11:32.200 --> 00:11:34.000
<v Speaker 4>I don't know how he was going from here to here.

195
00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:36.200
<v Speaker 4>He ended up over here, and Lynette just kind of

196
00:11:36.279 --> 00:11:39.200
<v Speaker 4>ended up somewhere. Does that make sense to you? Or

197
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 4>am I losing my fricking mind?

198
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:41.240
<v Speaker 3>DEVI?

199
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.840
<v Speaker 4>But the search went on and more and more people

200
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.720
<v Speaker 4>believed Brian did something to Lynette out at sea, a

201
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:49.399
<v Speaker 4>nautical divorce like the tide wouldn't have taken her out

202
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:51.600
<v Speaker 4>so much. As I said, it's surrounded by these little

203
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:54.039
<v Speaker 4>islands on sandburs. In fact, in the middle of the

204
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:58.240
<v Speaker 4>bay is a big sandburr, and it's also like four

205
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:02.159
<v Speaker 4>feet deep the entire of the area. You could stand

206
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:05.200
<v Speaker 4>in it. And nobody reported seeing a flare lit that night,

207
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:07.480
<v Speaker 4>because sailors usually keep an eye on the water, and

208
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:10.120
<v Speaker 4>if anybody had seen a flare, they would have hauled

209
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:14.440
<v Speaker 4>us to go and help whoever was stranded. On April eighth,

210
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.159
<v Speaker 4>Brian was taken into custody and questioned by police. He

211
00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:20.159
<v Speaker 4>stood by his story, and after being inside for five days,

212
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:22.759
<v Speaker 4>the police let him go. There was not enough evidence

213
00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:28.000
<v Speaker 4>to charge him with anything. Although Brian's story was dubious

214
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.919
<v Speaker 4>at best, there's no evidence he actually did anything wrong

215
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:36.159
<v Speaker 4>that there was you know, out there, or anything like that.

216
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:38.799
<v Speaker 4>It's just a weird story. Was it a freak accident,

217
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:42.399
<v Speaker 4>I mean, anything is possible, or was it, you know,

218
00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:44.360
<v Speaker 4>not a freak accident at all.

219
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:48.960
<v Speaker 6>In fact, new forensic evidence has prompted US investigators to

220
00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:52.320
<v Speaker 6>relaunch a search for the body of Lynette Hooker. A

221
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.039
<v Speaker 6>source familiar with the investigation says GPS data appears to

222
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:59.879
<v Speaker 6>contradict Brian Hooker's account of where he was the night

223
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.360
<v Speaker 6>his wife vanished. The data also shows where divers should

224
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.919
<v Speaker 6>now look for additional evidence, including potentially Lynette's body.

225
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 4>Shortly after the vanishing all of Lynnettes, Brian was on

226
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:14.120
<v Speaker 4>the phone to a fellow sailor, and this fellow sailor

227
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:17.240
<v Speaker 4>was asking, Brian, you know the search was ongoing, how

228
00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:19.559
<v Speaker 4>can I help as a friend on somebody who knows

229
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:21.279
<v Speaker 4>the water? What can I do to help you out?

230
00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:22.759
<v Speaker 5>How many people do you got out there?

231
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:23.440
<v Speaker 1>And do you need more?

232
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:25.120
<v Speaker 12>Mourn's the last good day.

233
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:28.240
<v Speaker 13>I think I don't think they'll launch anything on Wednesday.

234
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:31.080
<v Speaker 13>There's a blow coming through. So I get what you're saying.

235
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:34.720
<v Speaker 13>But you know, I'm my sister's flying in tomorrow.

236
00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:35.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna rent a boat.

237
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 2>I had to, so the.

238
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.440
<v Speaker 13>Dinghy I landed in some crazy spot like a movie.

239
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:45.159
<v Speaker 13>It was a little tiny, fifty yard wide lagoon full

240
00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:49.039
<v Speaker 13>of rocks, and I beached it, and the cops, of

241
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:52.799
<v Speaker 13>course are there early investigating me right now, so they

242
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:54.679
<v Speaker 13>came to tie the dingy up.

243
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:55.399
<v Speaker 12>I just got the.

244
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:59.360
<v Speaker 13>Dinghy back today, and I've got the boat back to

245
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:04.240
<v Speaker 13>the heart from where the anchorage was so I could now.

246
00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:06.240
<v Speaker 13>I have to rake some switches so I can single

247
00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:07.159
<v Speaker 13>handed back.

248
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:08.639
<v Speaker 7>There and conduction mailn searches.

249
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:09.759
<v Speaker 12>They asked me today.

250
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:11.759
<v Speaker 13>The cops called me up and asked me how long

251
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:14.000
<v Speaker 13>I would be in the Bahamas. Bug get my way back,

252
00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:17.519
<v Speaker 13>and so that's that's my goal. I canceled everything we

253
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:19.480
<v Speaker 13>were going back home for and I'm going to renew

254
00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:20.679
<v Speaker 13>my visa and stay here.

255
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:23.240
<v Speaker 4>This guy recorded the conversation he had over the phone

256
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:27.279
<v Speaker 4>with Brian. And what's interesting about this story. As Brian

257
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:29.799
<v Speaker 4>is telling his friend what happened that night, there's a

258
00:14:29.799 --> 00:14:30.919
<v Speaker 4>couple of contradictions.

259
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:32.960
<v Speaker 12>I took so many leaves over the dingy.

260
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:36.639
<v Speaker 13>I bailed about five or six times. I had to

261
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:39.879
<v Speaker 13>bail out the cockpit, but the inside also got wet,

262
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:42.679
<v Speaker 13>and the dingy key was not attached to me, you know,

263
00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:45.039
<v Speaker 13>so when we were around trying to get back in

264
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:47.840
<v Speaker 13>the boat and some of the sun was falling. When

265
00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:50.639
<v Speaker 13>it kind of dropped out, it was a magnet key,

266
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:51.720
<v Speaker 13>you know, for the electric model.

267
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:54.480
<v Speaker 1>So you guys were swimming and I was just trying.

268
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:57.879
<v Speaker 13>To get to her, and I was gonna row. But

269
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:01.559
<v Speaker 13>it is ridiculous to I think you can row a dinghy,

270
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:05.000
<v Speaker 13>especially a fiberglass dinging against the wind in two foot

271
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:06.080
<v Speaker 13>to three foot swells.

272
00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:08.519
<v Speaker 4>Like Brian saying he was in the water with Lynette

273
00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:10.720
<v Speaker 4>when previously he had always said no, he wasn't in

274
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:13.399
<v Speaker 4>the water. He was in the dinghy that got swept away.

275
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:15.360
<v Speaker 4>He was bailing getting the water out of the dinghy.

276
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:18.279
<v Speaker 4>He had also trying to get into the dinghy itself.

277
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.799
<v Speaker 4>It's very it just completely by Blair, I mean, contradictory.

278
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:25.639
<v Speaker 4>And then of course the more you dig, the more

279
00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:28.519
<v Speaker 4>shit you find, because we are once again digging in

280
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:31.120
<v Speaker 4>a porta potty. It would come out. In previous messages

281
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:34.039
<v Speaker 4>sent from Lynette to a friend back in twenty twenty four,

282
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:36.960
<v Speaker 4>two years before she vanished, that she had concerns about

283
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:40.039
<v Speaker 4>Brian and their life at sea. Lynette, I guess it

284
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:42.559
<v Speaker 4>was too much closeness, we decided to call a quits.

285
00:15:42.600 --> 00:15:45.519
<v Speaker 4>I'm not going back. Good luck, guys. Friend, I'm really

286
00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:49.000
<v Speaker 4>sorry to hear this. Lynette me too, heartbroken, considering I

287
00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:51.879
<v Speaker 4>quit my awesome career, sold my house, and gave away

288
00:15:51.919 --> 00:15:54.679
<v Speaker 4>everything I owned to cruise. We were married for twenty

289
00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:59.159
<v Speaker 4>one years. Our marriage lasted six weeks cruising. Friend. I

290
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:01.000
<v Speaker 4>don't know you well, and I hope I'm not speaking

291
00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:02.960
<v Speaker 4>out of turn. But when you comment that it would

292
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:05.240
<v Speaker 4>be weird without you and Brian, is it soon enough

293
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.799
<v Speaker 4>that maybe things could be reconciled, Lynette? Not, this time,

294
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:12.759
<v Speaker 4>it was real bad. I can't be out there with him.

295
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:15.679
<v Speaker 4>They did, in fact reconcile a month later, which is

296
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:22.200
<v Speaker 4>two years before Lynette vanished in inexplicable circumstances. Over twenty

297
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:25.120
<v Speaker 4>years before, Brian had been accused of choking a child.

298
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:27.960
<v Speaker 4>He was acquitted of that. Lynette's daughter would say that

299
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:30.919
<v Speaker 4>Lynette had confided in her that Brian had choked her. Also,

300
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:34.000
<v Speaker 4>another time police were called after Lynette and Brian got

301
00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:37.759
<v Speaker 4>into a drunken argument. Police actually arrested Lynette because Brian

302
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.759
<v Speaker 4>was the one with the injuries, but nothing more after that.

303
00:16:40.919 --> 00:16:44.240
<v Speaker 4>Brian later left the Bahamas. This is, of course, after

304
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 4>saying he would never leave the Bahamas until either his

305
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:51.960
<v Speaker 4>visa expired or he found Lynette. He bounced before either happened,

306
00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:58.639
<v Speaker 4>and get this, didn' Lynette have a good Oh? But

307
00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:01.960
<v Speaker 4>of course no claims on not yes, but I mean

308
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:03.840
<v Speaker 4>the way this one is sort of shaping out, It's

309
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.240
<v Speaker 4>very unlikely that Brian will be claiming jack shit.

310
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:09.240
<v Speaker 13>I want you to know that Lynette and I loved

311
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:10.759
<v Speaker 13>each other the most.

312
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:13.680
<v Speaker 7>We've been together almost half our lives.

313
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.319
<v Speaker 5>My sole focus is finding.

314
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:20.160
<v Speaker 11>Lynette.

315
00:17:20.839 --> 00:17:23.119
<v Speaker 4>The case would go quite till early May, until the

316
00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:26.279
<v Speaker 4>US Coast Guard would get involved. They seized the boat

317
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:28.599
<v Speaker 4>looking for evidence of a crime. They did their own

318
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:30.519
<v Speaker 4>search of the area and found nothing.

319
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:39.160
<v Speaker 5>Got then how many people, I'm born? How many people

320
00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:43.079
<v Speaker 5>on board? Okay? Any weapons on board? Okay? Do not

321
00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:44.359
<v Speaker 5>reach you them?

322
00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:44.960
<v Speaker 7>All right?

323
00:17:46.240 --> 00:17:48.119
<v Speaker 5>Nobody down below?

324
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:48.599
<v Speaker 12>Weapons?

325
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:49.839
<v Speaker 10>All right?

326
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:51.519
<v Speaker 5>You guys had any Saint Augustine.

327
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:58.000
<v Speaker 1>No, we're heading up to Fort Okay for the owner.

328
00:17:58.720 --> 00:17:58.920
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

329
00:17:59.039 --> 00:17:59.839
<v Speaker 5>Is he gonna meet you there?

330
00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so.

331
00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:03.640
<v Speaker 5>So Right now the boat's.

332
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:07.640
<v Speaker 4>Being seized these days, no one actually knows where Brian

333
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.599
<v Speaker 4>Hooker physically is. Something he is in Mexico, and allegedly

334
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:16.119
<v Speaker 4>he is refusing to cooperate with the investigation, maybe because

335
00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:20.799
<v Speaker 4>he believes he's being railroaded as a suspect into the

336
00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:25.079
<v Speaker 4>disappearance of his wife, or he just doesn't really care,

337
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.759
<v Speaker 4>because I think if it was my wife of almost

338
00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:30.920
<v Speaker 4>twenty five years, I wouldn't really care. I would be

339
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:32.759
<v Speaker 4>out there searching for her.

340
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:33.680
<v Speaker 5>Not like.

341
00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:38.720
<v Speaker 4>Living it up. And maybe, but the thing is absolutely

342
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:42.000
<v Speaker 4>no one knows where Lynette is. And as much as

343
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:46.319
<v Speaker 4>Brian's story has contradictions and doesn't really make a huge

344
00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:48.680
<v Speaker 4>amount of sense, he could be telling the truth. It

345
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:52.079
<v Speaker 4>could have been a freak accident out there in the water.

346
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:56.119
<v Speaker 4>Maybe one day we will know, or maybe this will

347
00:18:56.160 --> 00:19:05.079
<v Speaker 4>just remain one of those unsolved mysteries. The next account

348
00:19:05.079 --> 00:19:06.720
<v Speaker 4>I want to talk to you about. It's quite short,

349
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:09.119
<v Speaker 4>in fact, we're really only going to talk about one

350
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:12.799
<v Speaker 4>brief TikTok video, but it's horrifying enough. That's her, damn sure.

351
00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:15.480
<v Speaker 4>The account that posted it s four l CC, just

352
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:18.839
<v Speaker 4>a regular young woman. She's not the focus of this story.

353
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:21.839
<v Speaker 4>But it was what she posted back in October of

354
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:25.440
<v Speaker 4>twenty twenty five that was really terrifying.

355
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:30.880
<v Speaker 12>Go Away, don't come over here, Cara Cotta cops.

356
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:37.400
<v Speaker 11>Mm hmm me Cotton. It is all these kids they

357
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:39.039
<v Speaker 11>hear caught of cops in them.

358
00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:42.720
<v Speaker 4>This was in Philadelphia and on October fourth, twenty twenty five,

359
00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:45.319
<v Speaker 4>so about a week and a half before the video

360
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:48.240
<v Speaker 4>was posted, a young twenty three year old woman named

361
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:51.759
<v Speaker 4>Kada Scott vanished in the middle of her overnight shift.

362
00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:55.160
<v Speaker 4>This was all over the news, a major story, not

363
00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:58.920
<v Speaker 4>just in the area, but nationally. Caada was last scene

364
00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:02.160
<v Speaker 4>walking towards a dark colored suv parked outside her work,

365
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.000
<v Speaker 4>talking to someone on the phone. Then she was gone.

366
00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:09.279
<v Speaker 14>More than a week since she disappeared, there's still no

367
00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:12.720
<v Speaker 14>sign of twenty three year old Kata Scott. Philadelphia police

368
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:16.119
<v Speaker 14>continue to investigate as family members, friends, and the community

369
00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:18.160
<v Speaker 14>are desperate for answers.

370
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:21.839
<v Speaker 2>A desperate search for answers. Chopper six flying overhead as

371
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:24.920
<v Speaker 2>community members and loved ones of Kaita Scott Canvas mount

372
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:27.519
<v Speaker 2>Airy looking for information that could lead them to the

373
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:28.880
<v Speaker 2>missing twenty three year old.

374
00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:30.039
<v Speaker 1>It's been horrible.

375
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.039
<v Speaker 2>We'll come home, her mother, understandably worried after Scott did

376
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:36.880
<v Speaker 2>not return home Sunday morning from her overnight shift. At

377
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:38.640
<v Speaker 2>this assisted living facility, a.

378
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:42.240
<v Speaker 4>Search would begin, the FBI would become involved, and then

379
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:48.119
<v Speaker 4>on October fifteenth, this very strange TikTok, very disturbing and

380
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:49.640
<v Speaker 4>scary TikTok video was posted.

381
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:52.359
<v Speaker 11>Go away, bitch, don't come over here.

382
00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:54.680
<v Speaker 7>M Cari conta cops.

383
00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:01.680
<v Speaker 11>Mm hmm, it's all these kids here.

384
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:08.960
<v Speaker 12>He coming around the window, coda with camera.

385
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:19.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah to go away, bye go wait bye.

386
00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.119
<v Speaker 7>Yep bye bye.

387
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:24.079
<v Speaker 1>Ken out here.

388
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:28.480
<v Speaker 4>Now, this video does not appear to have been taken

389
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:31.640
<v Speaker 4>around the time it was posted. Posted in mid October,

390
00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:33.960
<v Speaker 4>and there's snow on the ground, but the man in

391
00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:37.000
<v Speaker 4>it was clearly a stalker looking in the window trying

392
00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:40.640
<v Speaker 4>to find a way into a house that people were in,

393
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:44.200
<v Speaker 4>children were in. This is the man who was later

394
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:48.359
<v Speaker 4>arrested for the murder of Kada Scott. His name is

395
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:51.839
<v Speaker 4>Kean King, a disturbing man with multiple felon accounts for

396
00:21:51.839 --> 00:21:55.279
<v Speaker 4>attacking a previous girlfriend. However, the ex would later withdraw

397
00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:58.039
<v Speaker 4>the charges. It would appear that Kaida had been in

398
00:21:58.119 --> 00:22:01.200
<v Speaker 4>contact with him and agreed to go with him that night.

399
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:04.640
<v Speaker 4>Kata's body was found October eighteenth. She had been shot

400
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.519
<v Speaker 4>in the head. Kean King has been charged with her

401
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:10.319
<v Speaker 4>murder and abuse of a corpse. He has not gone

402
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:12.759
<v Speaker 4>to trial yet. However, what exactly he was doing in

403
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:15.839
<v Speaker 4>this video, well, with his history, we can hazard a guess,

404
00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:19.880
<v Speaker 4>and it ain't very good. The is serving Kata's Scott case.

405
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:23.559
<v Speaker 4>It is for sure one I will revisit at a

406
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:25.440
<v Speaker 4>later date. We will do a full o, you know,

407
00:22:25.559 --> 00:22:27.960
<v Speaker 4>deep dive into the story. I'll likely cover it when

408
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:30.119
<v Speaker 4>we get closer to the trial. But boy, oh boy,

409
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:35.640
<v Speaker 4>it's already horrifying enough with that TikTok video showing what's

410
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:45.039
<v Speaker 4>believed to be Keon King being very very creepy. It

411
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.680
<v Speaker 4>was February twenty twenty five and in Soritos, California, which

412
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:51.960
<v Speaker 4>is a city that's basically part of the urban sprawl

413
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:55.400
<v Speaker 4>that makes up Los Angeles, a man, sixty six year

414
00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:58.640
<v Speaker 4>old kwatamuk. He went by Timo Garcia. He was getting

415
00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:00.279
<v Speaker 4>out of his car to go for a little walk

416
00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:04.200
<v Speaker 4>along a creek bike path. This was midday and Timo

417
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:07.160
<v Speaker 4>did this every single day. He did ten miles a day.

418
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:09.960
<v Speaker 4>He was a hell of a walker. Timo Garcia was

419
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:14.559
<v Speaker 4>a very successful businessman, two kids, wife of nearly thirty years.

420
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.559
<v Speaker 4>As Timo was walking along the bike path. A man

421
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:22.079
<v Speaker 4>and a woman began following him. They were walking fast,

422
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:25.640
<v Speaker 4>eventually running at one point to catch up with Timo.

423
00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:29.880
<v Speaker 4>What happened exactly after that still remained something of a mystery,

424
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:32.799
<v Speaker 4>but witnesses would report hearing soon after they caught up

425
00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:37.480
<v Speaker 4>with him a number of gunshots. Witnesses would later come

426
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:40.240
<v Speaker 4>forward saying that they seen this couple, this man and

427
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:43.200
<v Speaker 4>this woman run catch up with Timo, pull out a

428
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:48.480
<v Speaker 4>firearm and demand his car keys. Timo refused, and so

429
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:52.240
<v Speaker 4>he was shot nine times. They shot him dead, and

430
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:54.119
<v Speaker 4>then the man and the woman picked up his body

431
00:23:54.119 --> 00:23:58.480
<v Speaker 4>and dropped him down a dirt embankment. Police swiftly arrived

432
00:23:58.559 --> 00:23:59.960
<v Speaker 4>and found Timo murder.

433
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:06.920
<v Speaker 11>Hey you know I tell him I love him.

434
00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:10.119
<v Speaker 1>Hi, Hi, Messa.

435
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Michelle Garcia, just weeks from celebrating her twenty seventh wedding

436
00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:18.039
<v Speaker 3>anniversary with the love of her life. Now a widow

437
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:22.160
<v Speaker 3>and together with her family, searching for answers and curritos

438
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:26.559
<v Speaker 3>today after her husband was murdered here in broad daylight

439
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:28.359
<v Speaker 3>while out on a walk in the park.

440
00:24:28.480 --> 00:24:31.279
<v Speaker 4>He still had the keys to his SUV in his pocket,

441
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:33.839
<v Speaker 4>which seemed to have been the motive for the killing.

442
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:36.759
<v Speaker 4>A witness would give a description of the couple. On

443
00:24:36.839 --> 00:24:40.319
<v Speaker 4>CCTV would find an image of them fleeing the scene.

444
00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:43.240
<v Speaker 4>A park employee would even say he had seen these

445
00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:46.200
<v Speaker 4>two in the park in the days leading up to

446
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:50.319
<v Speaker 4>the shooting, but now they had vanished into that concrete jungle.

447
00:24:50.839 --> 00:24:55.160
<v Speaker 3>They ran, say detectives after all the gunshots. After themill

448
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:58.119
<v Speaker 3>tried to get away from his killer, but he didn't

449
00:24:58.119 --> 00:25:01.160
<v Speaker 3>stand a chance, and just like that, he died right

450
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:03.680
<v Speaker 3>there on the bike path next to the park he loved.

451
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:11.359
<v Speaker 4>So now let's rewind a bit chronologically. It's now just

452
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:15.960
<v Speaker 4>a few days before that shooting in Critos. Now we're

453
00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:19.119
<v Speaker 4>in Orange County, Los Angeles, and a man and a woman,

454
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:22.880
<v Speaker 4>two tourists from Florida. We're going to a Panera bread

455
00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:27.519
<v Speaker 4>in Cyprus, Los Angeles. The person who posted this video,

456
00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:30.640
<v Speaker 4>Salty Naples Mama, was eating her food outside with her

457
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:33.720
<v Speaker 4>husband when a couple sitting across from them well the teck.

458
00:25:33.759 --> 00:25:37.119
<v Speaker 4>That video doesn't actually show how the argument started, but

459
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.279
<v Speaker 4>it started one way or another, and Salty Naples Mama

460
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:42.319
<v Speaker 4>began recording it.

461
00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:46.759
<v Speaker 1>What is your problem?

462
00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:48.680
<v Speaker 7>You actually started it?

463
00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:50.079
<v Speaker 1>You started it.

464
00:25:50.160 --> 00:25:56.240
<v Speaker 12>We were sitting here minding our own business, looking around.

465
00:25:58.480 --> 00:25:59.680
<v Speaker 1>That's why it moved out of this.

466
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:10.079
<v Speaker 11>Ah, that's cute, like wegas right, where are you from?

467
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Anyway?

468
00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:13.039
<v Speaker 5>Business?

469
00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Exactly? Mind your own business. Put up your ass, try it.

470
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:32.039
<v Speaker 1>What's what happened? Take that crock of your ass?

471
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:32.440
<v Speaker 7>Hi?

472
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:36.920
<v Speaker 5>You didn't say hi. You did not say hi.

473
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I said hi.

474
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:50.799
<v Speaker 7>Work, We'll see.

475
00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:55.519
<v Speaker 4>Really not holding back there. That's some horrible ship. They

476
00:26:55.519 --> 00:26:56.160
<v Speaker 4>were spouting.

477
00:26:56.759 --> 00:26:57.759
<v Speaker 1>You can go your meal.

478
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:19.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, how the day you guys deserves.

479
00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Crazy?

480
00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:18.880
<v Speaker 11>That was actually so.

481
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:24.079
<v Speaker 4>And that's a nasty asked video. And this this video

482
00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:27.160
<v Speaker 4>went semi viraled simply just to you know, do you

483
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:31.519
<v Speaker 4>do how horrendous the profanities that other couple we were

484
00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:34.119
<v Speaker 4>shouting at the person, you know, Salty Naples mom who

485
00:27:34.119 --> 00:27:36.720
<v Speaker 4>took the video. Tourists from Florida getting that warm Los

486
00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:40.640
<v Speaker 4>Angeles welcome. And then, though as this TikTok began getting

487
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:43.400
<v Speaker 4>more and more views, a couple of folk who sought

488
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:49.079
<v Speaker 4>on TikTok somehow maybe recognized those two people like they

489
00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:51.519
<v Speaker 4>had seen them before, like maybe on oh, I don't know,

490
00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:54.440
<v Speaker 4>a wanted poster. It was this video that led to

491
00:27:54.519 --> 00:27:58.079
<v Speaker 4>the identification of John Chung Moon fifty four and Cindy

492
00:27:58.200 --> 00:28:01.319
<v Speaker 4>Kim fifty eight, a brother and sister. They had been

493
00:28:01.359 --> 00:28:03.799
<v Speaker 4>so hard to find because these siblings had been living

494
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:06.839
<v Speaker 4>in a Toyota Prius, but they were both finally arrested

495
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:11.119
<v Speaker 4>come March ninth after a police pursuit. That was two

496
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:15.359
<v Speaker 4>weeks after the murder of Timo Garcia, and with their rest,

497
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:18.359
<v Speaker 4>the story that was solved with a TikTok video would

498
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.640
<v Speaker 4>get even stranger and stranger because John and Cindy, this

499
00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:25.880
<v Speaker 4>brother and sister, had been living out of their Toyota

500
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:29.200
<v Speaker 4>Prius and they wanted somewhere bigger to live out of.

501
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:31.279
<v Speaker 4>They'd been living at that park and they had seen

502
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:35.279
<v Speaker 4>Timo Garcia pull up in his SUV and they thought, well,

503
00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:38.000
<v Speaker 4>we'll have more room to live in his car. Let's

504
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:39.960
<v Speaker 4>threaten him and take his keys. When he didn't hand

505
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:42.960
<v Speaker 4>him over, they gunned him down. John and Cindy had

506
00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:45.839
<v Speaker 4>even been planning to kill their older sister and her

507
00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:49.640
<v Speaker 4>family due to family financial issues. Their sister had stopped

508
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.079
<v Speaker 4>them from taking over a home where their mom lived.

509
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:56.839
<v Speaker 4>Hence the Casadel Prius. Police also found a notebook in

510
00:28:56.880 --> 00:28:59.799
<v Speaker 4>the car. Here are some of John's scribbles, because the

511
00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:02.279
<v Speaker 4>more you get into these two people who didn't know

512
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:05.160
<v Speaker 4>Timo Garcia, they just killed him trying to steal his car.

513
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:08.559
<v Speaker 4>The more you learn about John and Cindy, the more

514
00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:12.440
<v Speaker 4>just about batship bananas they seem to be. That's a

515
00:29:12.440 --> 00:29:15.160
<v Speaker 4>whole other story. And it's a struggle to make rent

516
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.559
<v Speaker 4>on studio one bedroom while their mother lives in luxury

517
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:22.119
<v Speaker 4>comfort lifestyle. Get our last bastion of wealth by any

518
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:25.119
<v Speaker 4>means necessary, bogart our way back and pressure her.

519
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:25.680
<v Speaker 5>To sell the house.

520
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:28.920
<v Speaker 4>A real gruesome twosome. Their older sister they wanted to

521
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:32.119
<v Speaker 4>kill had previously helped their mom get a restraining order

522
00:29:32.160 --> 00:29:34.720
<v Speaker 4>against the two. Hey, you know, when it comes to

523
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:38.319
<v Speaker 4>family and family arguments and dynamics, there's always two sides

524
00:29:38.359 --> 00:29:40.680
<v Speaker 4>to every story. Well, I'm probably not going to pick

525
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:43.400
<v Speaker 4>the side of the brother and sister who murdered a

526
00:29:43.519 --> 00:29:47.079
<v Speaker 4>random stranger for his suv. John and Cindy allegedly also

527
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:49.799
<v Speaker 4>forged their mom's signature to try get her to sell

528
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:54.880
<v Speaker 4>the house on Craigslist. Not ideal. Nine milimeter casings found

529
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:58.279
<v Speaker 4>at the scene of the murder of Timo Garcia matched

530
00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:02.839
<v Speaker 4>a nine millimeter handgun found in the cassadel Prius. Now

531
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:05.599
<v Speaker 4>John and Cindy haven't gone on trial yet, but I

532
00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:07.960
<v Speaker 4>have no doubt they will, and for what they did,

533
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:13.160
<v Speaker 4>murdering you know, this really really nice guy, Timo Garcia,

534
00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:16.079
<v Speaker 4>simply because they wanted to steal his SUV so they

535
00:30:16.079 --> 00:30:18.160
<v Speaker 4>could live out of it. I'm gonna hazard. I guess

536
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:21.000
<v Speaker 4>the trial will not and possibly should not go well

537
00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:23.240
<v Speaker 4>for them, especially considering all the shit they did to

538
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:26.119
<v Speaker 4>their own family. That TikTok video it solved the murder

539
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:28.720
<v Speaker 4>of Timo Garcia, helped solve it at the very least,

540
00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:33.839
<v Speaker 4>and possibly prevented the murder of John and Cindy's extended family.

541
00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:42.880
<v Speaker 4>It was twenty twenty four and Sam Storm TikTok name

542
00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:45.799
<v Speaker 4>real name Sam Norkvist was looking for love.

543
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:49.240
<v Speaker 12>That's my.

544
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:55.119
<v Speaker 4>Sam posted all the time on TikTok, usually this kind

545
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:59.000
<v Speaker 4>of stuff and really accentuated the tough el bastard persona

546
00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:02.160
<v Speaker 4>online behind the scenes, though in real life Sam was

547
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:09.160
<v Speaker 4>anything but kind, generous, caring, loving Sam was happiest online,

548
00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:11.559
<v Speaker 4>and with the frequency he posted and the confidence he

549
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:14.119
<v Speaker 4>posted with not surprising, but it was there that Sam

550
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:17.839
<v Speaker 4>felt most accepted by others. He socialized with strangers online

551
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:20.599
<v Speaker 4>all the time. Some of his best friends he hadn't

552
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:22.759
<v Speaker 4>ever met them in real life. And true this, Sam

553
00:31:22.839 --> 00:31:25.960
<v Speaker 4>sort of eventually hoped to get famous streaming tiktoking all

554
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:28.880
<v Speaker 4>that sort of jazz. Sam Norkvist lived in the suburbs

555
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:32.319
<v Speaker 4>of Minneapolis with his mom and older brother, and it

556
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:35.119
<v Speaker 4>was definitely somewhere Sam did not want to remain and

557
00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:38.119
<v Speaker 4>keen on that option. Sam had struggled with depression for

558
00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:40.599
<v Speaker 4>a long time, worked at a group home, and went

559
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:42.680
<v Speaker 4>to a special high school that was one of them

560
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:45.559
<v Speaker 4>at risk schools for kids who have a high potential

561
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:49.519
<v Speaker 4>for dropping out. Sam was twenty four years of age,

562
00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:54.160
<v Speaker 4>a trans man, and was looking for any opportunity to

563
00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:57.599
<v Speaker 4>escape where he was. Unfortunately, though for Sam, the woman

564
00:31:57.680 --> 00:32:01.519
<v Speaker 4>he met online was it was definitely not what she

565
00:32:01.599 --> 00:32:04.240
<v Speaker 4>appeared to be at all. And I mean to cut

566
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:07.559
<v Speaker 4>to the chase. What happened to Sam and what was

567
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:12.440
<v Speaker 4>done to Sam is incredibly horrifying. Like this, folks, this

568
00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:15.400
<v Speaker 4>one is going to get pretty narrowly. See as I said,

569
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:17.920
<v Speaker 4>Sam wanted more, didn't have a huge amount of friends

570
00:32:17.920 --> 00:32:20.960
<v Speaker 4>in real life, and so met most people online. Earlier

571
00:32:21.039 --> 00:32:23.519
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty four, Sam had flown to Florida to

572
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:26.359
<v Speaker 4>meet a girl there, only to meet heartbreak. Instead, he'd

573
00:32:26.359 --> 00:32:29.119
<v Speaker 4>been abused and exploited by this girl and her boyfriend,

574
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:32.640
<v Speaker 4>posting this on TikTok wish, I never did shake in

575
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:35.039
<v Speaker 4>my head because getting played by someone who you thought

576
00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:37.839
<v Speaker 4>actually loved and cared about you is whole different type

577
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:41.599
<v Speaker 4>of pain. Instead, they psychologically abused me and mentally abused me,

578
00:32:41.759 --> 00:32:45.400
<v Speaker 4>even financially abused me, and is a narcissist. So that

579
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:48.920
<v Speaker 4>for a into love didn't end well for Sam, and

580
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:52.200
<v Speaker 4>that was unfortunately a pattern for Sam. There were just

581
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:56.440
<v Speaker 4>very unlucky in that. But Sam thought that was all

582
00:32:56.480 --> 00:33:00.400
<v Speaker 4>gonna change when in August of twenty twenty four he

583
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:03.640
<v Speaker 4>met someone else. Sam was pretty impulsive when it came

584
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:06.799
<v Speaker 4>to love and affection as somebody who didn't experience it often,

585
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:09.880
<v Speaker 4>and it was already at this point in never talking

586
00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:13.680
<v Speaker 4>August of twenty twenty four, after Sam had that bad

587
00:33:13.759 --> 00:33:17.039
<v Speaker 4>experience with that Florida girl, Sam was already talking to

588
00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:20.359
<v Speaker 4>somebody else, someone else who would do something far, far worse.

589
00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:22.920
<v Speaker 4>Her name and this is sort of a dead giveaway.

590
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:32.839
<v Speaker 4>Is Precious Arizuaga Sak thirteen years older than Sam, I

591
00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:36.880
<v Speaker 4>lived about one thousands miles away from Minneapolis in New York,

592
00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:42.640
<v Speaker 4>Upstate New York in the Finger Lakes region. They would

593
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.119
<v Speaker 4>only know each other for about a month before Sam

594
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:48.000
<v Speaker 4>was on a plane over there in late September twenty

595
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:52.000
<v Speaker 4>twenty four. It was remarkably easy for Precious Sam naive

596
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:57.480
<v Speaker 4>emotionally vulnerable at this time. Precious predator. Actually, you know what,

597
00:33:57.559 --> 00:34:01.559
<v Speaker 4>let me run you true. Precious is colorful history, just

598
00:34:01.640 --> 00:34:04.279
<v Speaker 4>like real quick. And when I say colorful, I mean

599
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.239
<v Speaker 4>we ain't painted inside the lines here. This is batshit.

600
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:11.960
<v Speaker 4>Precious lived in Geneva on Seneca Lake, upstate New York,

601
00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:15.440
<v Speaker 4>and has, to her credit, her name listed in over

602
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:20.480
<v Speaker 4>three hundred police reports. You got domestics, you got aggravated assaults,

603
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.000
<v Speaker 4>you got drugs, you got beating up strangers, beating up

604
00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:26.039
<v Speaker 4>her own kids, the whole shabang. She was more than

605
00:34:26.119 --> 00:34:30.159
<v Speaker 4>just this abusive bully. She was charming. You liked her,

606
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:32.400
<v Speaker 4>you wanted to get to know her, you wanted to

607
00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:36.280
<v Speaker 4>talk to her. Extremely manipulative, and it was then when

608
00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:40.239
<v Speaker 4>she had you, that's when the abuse began. Like previous partners,

609
00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:43.000
<v Speaker 4>are Precious as male and female would say. She had

610
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:46.840
<v Speaker 4>stabbed beat and choked them like there was no tomorrow.

611
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:51.280
<v Speaker 4>Some people escaped barely with their lives from her. And

612
00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:55.199
<v Speaker 4>that's exactly how it worked on Sam, and it worked hard. Unfortunately.

613
00:34:57.440 --> 00:35:00.320
<v Speaker 4>They began chatting all the time, constant dms. They would

614
00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:03.679
<v Speaker 4>FaceTime and fall asleep on the phone together. Precious knew

615
00:35:03.719 --> 00:35:06.360
<v Speaker 4>that Sam loved kids, so she would bring up her

616
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:10.239
<v Speaker 4>kids all the time. She played up the adoring, confident mother,

617
00:35:10.440 --> 00:35:13.719
<v Speaker 4>not letting Annie of her true self. In Precious would

618
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:15.719
<v Speaker 4>moan to Sam her car broke down. She lost her

619
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:20.840
<v Speaker 4>job manipulating kind hearted Sam. And on September twenty second,

620
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:29.079
<v Speaker 4>twenty twenty four, Sam posted this, and then just a

621
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:31.159
<v Speaker 4>couple of days later, he left for New York, a

622
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:34.960
<v Speaker 4>trip Sam would would never return from. They began filming

623
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:39.159
<v Speaker 4>these little tiktoks together, and I guess these short videos

624
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:42.880
<v Speaker 4>give us the only hard facts of what really happened.

625
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:47.559
<v Speaker 4>After Sam arrived. Sam arrived at the airport in Upstate

626
00:35:47.559 --> 00:35:50.599
<v Speaker 4>New York. Precious was not there to pick him up.

627
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:53.599
<v Speaker 4>A friend arrived. In fact, Sam was told, smoke your

628
00:35:53.639 --> 00:35:56.440
<v Speaker 4>last cigarette because you're not allowed to smoke around Precious

629
00:35:56.480 --> 00:35:58.280
<v Speaker 4>and her kids. A bit of a weird start, but

630
00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:01.079
<v Speaker 4>Of course, Sam was only happy, too happy to be there,

631
00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:05.360
<v Speaker 4>and so arrived rocked up to the shitty motel where

632
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:09.480
<v Speaker 4>Precious was living in Room twenty two, a motel real

633
00:36:09.559 --> 00:36:14.079
<v Speaker 4>Rundown known as a home for sex offenders and basically

634
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:18.800
<v Speaker 4>social services. Sam was supposed to return to Minneapolis around

635
00:36:18.800 --> 00:36:21.239
<v Speaker 4>October twelfth. It was about a two week trip to

636
00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:25.440
<v Speaker 4>New York that did not happen. Sam's family actually began

637
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:28.880
<v Speaker 4>to worry when Sam never returned home. That was a plan,

638
00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:32.960
<v Speaker 4>The tickets were booked, work was organized, but Sam, although

639
00:36:32.960 --> 00:36:35.280
<v Speaker 4>he didn't call his mom on the phone, appeared to

640
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.840
<v Speaker 4>still be posting tiktoks and all was well in New York.

641
00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:41.960
<v Speaker 4>Sam's family in fact got a video from Precious saying

642
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:44.000
<v Speaker 4>it's all good. Leave them alone.

643
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:47.760
<v Speaker 12>Brother, I would never hear. Yeah.

644
00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:50.400
<v Speaker 1>I really love about it.

645
00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:55.239
<v Speaker 7>I might be old there, but that just means I

646
00:36:55.320 --> 00:36:59.320
<v Speaker 7>have more experience and I know how to treat somebody.

647
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:01.920
<v Speaker 4>God love that video, like. I couldn't have tried harder

648
00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:03.800
<v Speaker 4>to make it seem like Sam was being held against

649
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:06.480
<v Speaker 4>his will. In fact, the tiktoks kept posting from the

650
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:10.239
<v Speaker 4>Sam Storm account until November fifteenth, when they came to

651
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:13.639
<v Speaker 4>an abrupt stop, which is not like Sam. Family and

652
00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:17.360
<v Speaker 4>friends then were blocked from all socials as they repeatedly

653
00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:19.559
<v Speaker 4>try to get in touch with them, and it was

654
00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:21.719
<v Speaker 4>at the end of the year that the missing person's

655
00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:28.880
<v Speaker 4>case began. I'm pretty soon the horrifying details of what

656
00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:34.440
<v Speaker 4>Precious and others did to Sam would begin to trickle out.

657
00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:40.039
<v Speaker 15>So good morning, I'm sorry.

658
00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:41.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm so sorry.

659
00:37:44.800 --> 00:37:48.000
<v Speaker 15>As you've heard, I mean, the facts and the circumstances

660
00:37:48.000 --> 00:37:54.559
<v Speaker 15>of this crime are beyond depraved. This is by far

661
00:37:54.679 --> 00:37:58.599
<v Speaker 15>the worst homicide investigation that our office has ever.

662
00:37:58.400 --> 00:37:59.039
<v Speaker 1>Been a part of.

663
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:03.920
<v Speaker 15>It is an ongoing investigation, so we were necessarily limited

664
00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:08.800
<v Speaker 15>in the things that we can talk about. But no,

665
00:38:08.800 --> 00:38:11.800
<v Speaker 15>no human being should have to endure what Sam endured.

666
00:38:14.320 --> 00:38:17.440
<v Speaker 4>As I said, Sam arrived to Precious his home in

667
00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:20.760
<v Speaker 4>late September, not at all what he was expecting, it

668
00:38:20.840 --> 00:38:24.039
<v Speaker 4>being this shitty ass rundown hotel, and then like that,

669
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:28.159
<v Speaker 4>the abuses began. Because Precious happened, he couldn't leave, and

670
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:30.159
<v Speaker 4>Precious would simply not let him. She was not a

671
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:33.559
<v Speaker 4>fan of himily, but also didn't make it nice for

672
00:38:33.639 --> 00:38:36.760
<v Speaker 4>him to stay control more and more, domination, more and more.

673
00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:39.440
<v Speaker 4>Precious not allowing some out of her sight or to

674
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:44.800
<v Speaker 4>do anything. Humiliations became a daily occurrence for Sam, all

675
00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:48.079
<v Speaker 4>living out of this motel room. Precious's kids were there too.

676
00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:51.679
<v Speaker 4>One thing was Precious brought some to a New Year's

677
00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:55.840
<v Speaker 4>party and for the entire party forced Sam to sit

678
00:38:55.880 --> 00:38:59.159
<v Speaker 4>in a chair staring at the wall. That's what we're

679
00:38:59.159 --> 00:39:01.880
<v Speaker 4>talking about. But it was on January first, over three

680
00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:04.119
<v Speaker 4>months into what was supposed to be a two weeks day,

681
00:39:04.519 --> 00:39:08.920
<v Speaker 4>that the torture began proper. Sam was physically restrained in

682
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:13.559
<v Speaker 4>the room of the motel, hit kicked, punched, forced to stand,

683
00:39:13.800 --> 00:39:18.840
<v Speaker 4>forced to kneel, sexually assaulted, starved, forced to eat poo

684
00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:25.280
<v Speaker 4>urine saliva, bound to a chair doused with bleach. Absolutely

685
00:39:25.559 --> 00:39:29.079
<v Speaker 4>horrific things. And there were seven people who did this

686
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:34.000
<v Speaker 4>to Sam over a one month period from January January

687
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.960
<v Speaker 4>first to February first. Precious, Precious's twenty one year old son,

688
00:39:38.039 --> 00:39:41.559
<v Speaker 4>Thomas at Track Goodwin, who was a Level tree sex

689
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:44.320
<v Speaker 4>offender and there ain't no Level four. He also just

690
00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:48.199
<v Speaker 4>happened to live at this motel free of Precious's ex

691
00:39:48.280 --> 00:39:53.199
<v Speaker 4>partners and another sex offender named Kyle Sage. As I said, precious.

692
00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:55.719
<v Speaker 4>His two young children were there in the motel room

693
00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:00.519
<v Speaker 4>the entire time. The torture was like unimaginable cruelty levels,

694
00:40:00.719 --> 00:40:04.800
<v Speaker 4>and it ended up killing some His body later found

695
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:07.599
<v Speaker 4>in a field in upstate New York after the New

696
00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:11.280
<v Speaker 4>York State Police began their investigation into the missing person's case.

697
00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:14.960
<v Speaker 4>Sounds body was found February thirteenth, ironically enough, the day

698
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:16.119
<v Speaker 4>before Valentine's Day.

699
00:40:16.320 --> 00:40:18.599
<v Speaker 9>The three stood in the cold night next to the

700
00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:21.280
<v Speaker 9>car they drove from Minnesota right to the state Police

701
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:26.719
<v Speaker 9>barracks in Canandagua, standing there alone, clutching each other and crying.

702
00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:31.519
<v Speaker 9>A mother with her two children now trying to live

703
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:33.280
<v Speaker 9>in a world without her third.

704
00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:36.559
<v Speaker 16>He would give you the shirt off his back, very kind,

705
00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:44.039
<v Speaker 16>loved his family, loved his nieces and nephew, very all going,

706
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:44.840
<v Speaker 16>worked hard.

707
00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:48.400
<v Speaker 9>Linda Nordquist says she told her son not to travel

708
00:40:48.440 --> 00:40:51.280
<v Speaker 9>here for a girl, but he did anyway. That was

709
00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:52.360
<v Speaker 9>back in September.

710
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:55.559
<v Speaker 16>The last time I talked to Sam was January first,

711
00:40:56.039 --> 00:40:59.079
<v Speaker 16>and Sam said it was real short, said.

712
00:40:58.880 --> 00:40:59.360
<v Speaker 6>I love you.

713
00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:00.239
<v Speaker 2>I'll call you inmorrow.

714
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:01.880
<v Speaker 16>And I have not talked to Sam's sons.

715
00:41:02.119 --> 00:41:05.079
<v Speaker 9>Pollie say because of the ongoing investigation. They can't get

716
00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:08.039
<v Speaker 9>into the details, but add what happened in that room

717
00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:11.119
<v Speaker 9>shook veteran law men and women to the core.

718
00:41:12.679 --> 00:41:16.039
<v Speaker 4>All suspects arrested have pleaded not guilty in this case,

719
00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:20.800
<v Speaker 4>charged with second degree murder with depraved indifference. Precious was

720
00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:24.280
<v Speaker 4>also charged with coercing her two young children to take

721
00:41:24.320 --> 00:41:26.719
<v Speaker 4>part in the torture of Sam Nordvist.

722
00:41:26.880 --> 00:41:30.440
<v Speaker 17>Precious Arzwaga was the first person arraigned. She came out

723
00:41:30.480 --> 00:41:32.760
<v Speaker 17>to the courtroom in an orange jumpsuit, but was the

724
00:41:32.800 --> 00:41:37.280
<v Speaker 17>only defendant in that she, along with five other defendants,

725
00:41:37.320 --> 00:41:40.920
<v Speaker 17>also in handcuffs and a waste chain. All seven pleaded

726
00:41:40.960 --> 00:41:44.079
<v Speaker 17>not guilty to the charges, and all seven were remanded

727
00:41:44.079 --> 00:41:48.159
<v Speaker 17>to jail, no bail, no release. The seven local individuals

728
00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:52.039
<v Speaker 17>are accused of torturing and killing Sam Nordquist, a transgender

729
00:41:52.079 --> 00:41:55.920
<v Speaker 17>man from Minnesota. Each are also facing child in endangerment

730
00:41:56.039 --> 00:41:59.679
<v Speaker 17>charges after the District Attorney's office recently announced there were

731
00:41:59.719 --> 00:42:03.320
<v Speaker 17>two children present and coerced to participate in some of

732
00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:06.280
<v Speaker 17>the heinous acts, ages twelve and seven.

733
00:42:06.639 --> 00:42:08.599
<v Speaker 4>Now, this case is not going to trial yet yet.

734
00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:12.079
<v Speaker 4>One of the suspects, Emily Marka, did later plead guilty

735
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:14.679
<v Speaker 4>to murder, and in fact, in June twenty twenty six,

736
00:42:14.880 --> 00:42:18.119
<v Speaker 4>Precious did the very very same she pleaded guilty.

737
00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:20.679
<v Speaker 8>Our Zuwaga is now said to spend the rest of

738
00:42:20.679 --> 00:42:24.360
<v Speaker 8>her life in prison. She'll be sentenced in September. Meantime,

739
00:42:24.400 --> 00:42:27.840
<v Speaker 8>Moutika faces fifteen years to life, with a maximum sentence

740
00:42:27.920 --> 00:42:30.920
<v Speaker 8>of fifty years to life. The five other defendants are

741
00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:34.519
<v Speaker 8>awaiting separate trials. The next trial is set for January.

742
00:42:34.800 --> 00:42:38.199
<v Speaker 8>At this time, there are no other plea hearing scheduled.

743
00:42:40.519 --> 00:42:43.639
<v Speaker 4>No sentencing though as of yet. But what she did

744
00:42:43.679 --> 00:42:47.199
<v Speaker 4>to Sam is it's it's beyond cruelty, Like what's a

745
00:42:47.239 --> 00:42:50.360
<v Speaker 4>what's a harsher word than cruelty? It's that whatever that is.

746
00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:53.480
<v Speaker 4>Many tiktoks were posted on the Sam storm account, even

747
00:42:53.559 --> 00:42:57.079
<v Speaker 4>after Sam was due to a return to Minneapolis. Obviously,

748
00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Precious did not let that happen. And now in retro respect,

749
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:10.960
<v Speaker 4>they're hostage videos Sam held against his will and that
