<v Speaker 2>Thanks a lot. I appreciate it, Garian for Daan. Tonight's

00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:12.800
<v Speaker 2>still to come on the show. We're going to talk

5
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:16.359
<v Speaker 2>to the great Sam Metler. We'll discuss the world of politics,

6
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.039
<v Speaker 2>what's going on now that Harris is definitely in. I

7
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:20.480
<v Speaker 2>still say it would have been more fun to have

8
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.359
<v Speaker 2>a convention, but nobody listens to me. That's all right,

9
00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 2>But boy, she caught up quick with Trump. I think, hey,

10
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:29.600
<v Speaker 2>as we'll talk to Sam about that. It was great

11
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:31.600
<v Speaker 2>to have my buddy Rich Kimba Lahan talking about the

12
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:34.759
<v Speaker 2>education of our youth and some of the things that

13
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.799
<v Speaker 2>we need to change. Trendy Casey, my old friend from

14
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:42.520
<v Speaker 2>NBC Sports talking about the Olympics. But right now we

15
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:46.159
<v Speaker 2>are going to talk about a documentary, Unseen Innocence. It's

16
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:49.079
<v Speaker 2>about the wrongful murder conviction of Lionel Ray Ray Williams,

17
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:52.920
<v Speaker 2>who was sentenced to fifty one years to life in

18
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.560
<v Speaker 2>March of nineteen seventy nine for the death of a

19
00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Hollywood actor, Salmoneo. The film is directed by Letitia McIntosh

20
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:03.119
<v Speaker 2>uh and Ray Ray Williams is going to join us

21

<v Speaker 2>as well along with Letitia. Thank you for joining us

22
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.359

00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:10.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh, thank you so much for having us.

00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:15.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, we appreciate thank you, thank you. We appreciate that. So,

25
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.599
<v Speaker 2>mister Williams, you prefer to go by Ray Ray or

26
00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:19.159
<v Speaker 2>Lionel or.

27
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:25.400
<v Speaker 4>Ray, I'd rather go by Ray. I've been called that

28
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:26.159
<v Speaker 4>all my life.

29
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Ray Ray sounds good to me. We appreciate that. So,

30
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:37.959
<v Speaker 2>I mean, unfortunately, this story isn't unique around the world

31
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:40.640
<v Speaker 2>or in the United States, but it's a story that

32
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:46.319
<v Speaker 2>we need to continue to tell. So Letitia, tell us

33
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:48.359
<v Speaker 2>how you became involved in this project.

34
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:54.120
<v Speaker 3>So I went to a film school program. I wanted

35
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:58.640
<v Speaker 3>to learn how to animate my training videos. And when

36
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 3>I went to that film school program, I actually directed

37
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 3>a music video for a Southern soul artist and that

38
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:11.479
<v Speaker 3>Southern soul artist manager tried to book him in mister

39
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:16.400
<v Speaker 3>Williams Motorcycle Club. And that's how I got introduced to him.

40
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:18.280
<v Speaker 3>When they called me on the phone and they told

41
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:21.000
<v Speaker 3>me about his story, and I said, let me research

42
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:22.919
<v Speaker 3>it a little bit. And then when I researched it,

43
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:24.919
<v Speaker 3>I was like, okay, I would I would like to

44
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 3>help you tell your story.

45
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:31.560
<v Speaker 2>So if you can summarize his story for us, so in.

46
00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:35.400
<v Speaker 3>A nutshell, mister Williams was sentenced fifty one years for

47
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:42.319
<v Speaker 3>the murder of Salvatory Mineo Junior. He actually so, yep,

48
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:46.240
<v Speaker 3>it was every unsolved robbery and the murder that happened

49
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:49.360
<v Speaker 3>in that area in that in that time period around

50
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:57.199
<v Speaker 3>that area. And so mister Mineo essentially was basically railroaded

51
00:02:57.319 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 3>like so many people are. He was put into him

52
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:04.199
<v Speaker 3>a position where they follow this formula of where there's

53
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:12.240
<v Speaker 3>eyewitness testimony. Then they're incentivizing people to testify and they

54
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 3>give them, you know, either time off, you know, they

55
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.560
<v Speaker 3>give them money or something like that, and then you

56
00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:22.840
<v Speaker 3>may have prosecutorial misconduct as well as police miss conduct

57
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 3>that occurs. And so he was a victim of that.

58
00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:27.800
<v Speaker 3>That's basically why happen.

59
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 2>It's so crazy because if you watch the trailer, and

60
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:33.400
<v Speaker 2>you should check out the trailer, you can check that

61
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:38.680
<v Speaker 2>out on YouTube. Again Unseen Innocence, And I mean, we're

62
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>not talking about nineteen fifty nine. We're not talking about

63
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.520
<v Speaker 2>nineteen forty nine. We're not talking about nineteen thirty nine

64
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.280
<v Speaker 2>and the Jim Crow South. You know, we're talking about

65
00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:52.039
<v Speaker 2>like nineteen eighty you know, I mean, we're talking about

66
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 2>to me what I considered to be contemporary times. Where

67
00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>as you point out as ray ray you said, and

68
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:06.080
<v Speaker 2>right in the trailer, that witness has said that the

69
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.800
<v Speaker 2>person they saw walking away from the scene of the

70
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:10.439
<v Speaker 2>crime was white.

71
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.400
<v Speaker 4>What was just?

72
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:16.560
<v Speaker 2>And there was what the ray ray? There were three?

73
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:17.759
<v Speaker 4>There was four people.

74
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:19.319
<v Speaker 2>Four people. Run it down for me.

75
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:25.120
<v Speaker 4>It was four eyewitnesses, all of them are white. One

76
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:27.399
<v Speaker 4>was a nine year old girl who witnessed the murder

77
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:31.720
<v Speaker 4>under her window watching her mother back out the driveway. Uh.

78
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:38.240
<v Speaker 4>It was another guy uh in the next apartments. Uh

79
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 4>was was a witness to the everything for him driving up,

80
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 4>getting out of his car and getting killed. You know,

81
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:56.279
<v Speaker 4>he witnessed everything, and he was never used at trial.

82
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.879
<v Speaker 4>He was never called. Why you don't call him eyewitness

83
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:09.319
<v Speaker 4>that saw everything to court? Why did they hide this man?

84
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:12.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna tell you what they did. They used someone

85
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:17.160
<v Speaker 4>else in his place. They brought in a grown man

86
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:23.720
<v Speaker 4>that said that the murderer bumped into him and got

87
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:28.839
<v Speaker 4>into his car. But the seventeen year old kid who

88
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:31.480
<v Speaker 4>was supposed to be in that courtroom was never there.

89
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:36.480
<v Speaker 2>And the murder. So the grown man said, you were

90
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:37.160
<v Speaker 2>the murderer.

91
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 4>No, oh, no, no, I've been researching, he said, one

92
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:51.519
<v Speaker 4>in the bushes. In the bushes, but it was only

93
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:57.040
<v Speaker 4>one white person. Anybody who got in that car. There

94
00:05:57.120 --> 00:05:59.879
<v Speaker 4>was only one person they got in that car. All

95
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:08.360
<v Speaker 4>the witnesses, the security guard, uh, and the man walking

96
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:12.000
<v Speaker 4>the dog and the lady backing out said that it

97
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.560
<v Speaker 4>was a white person. Well, let me tell you something though.

98
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 4>You know, in most cases, hold up. I believe in

99
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:26.160
<v Speaker 4>every case, when when you got an eyewitness to a

100
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:30.000
<v Speaker 4>well find crime like this, what do you think that

101
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.160
<v Speaker 4>the DA should ask that person, that eyewitness? What do

102
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:37.600
<v Speaker 4>you think the first thing they should ask that person?

103
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Who did you see in the scene of the crime?

104
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:44.120
<v Speaker 2>Or are you racist?

105
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:46.560
<v Speaker 4>No? I'm not racist?

106
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.680
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, you no, no, I understand that what

107
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 2>you should do? You asking me what the first question

108
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:52.000
<v Speaker 2>should be?

109
00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:55.480
<v Speaker 4>The first thing the d A or an attorney asked

110
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.879
<v Speaker 4>an eyewitness to a crime, do you see that person

111
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:04.519
<v Speaker 4>in the court room? They never asked that question.

112
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.439
<v Speaker 2>But I don't. I don't this whole thing. Look, I

113
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 2>just don't get it. Like I understand what you're saying

114
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 2>is the truth, And I'm gonna try to We're gonna

115
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:17.800
<v Speaker 2>get into like why this happens, because to me, it

116
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 2>just seems to be easier on the taxpayer dollar to

117
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:24.519
<v Speaker 2>listen to the witnesses and to just get this done

118
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:28.240
<v Speaker 2>quicker in court. It seems to be more complicated to

119
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:30.720
<v Speaker 2>put an innocent man in jail, is what I'm saying.

120
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:36.040
<v Speaker 2>So I don't understand it. We'll continue the conversation. Unseen Innocence, UH,

121
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:40.720
<v Speaker 2>the murder, the wrongful murder conviction of Lionel Railway Williams.

122
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:42.759
<v Speaker 2>I tried to say more than this coming up on

123
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 2>night Side right after this.

124
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray Live from the Window World

125
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:53.000
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio.

126
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.240
<v Speaker 2>Garry Tangae filling it for Dan Ray tonight. Unseen Innocence

127
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.079
<v Speaker 2>the documentary about a manage centers through fifty one years

128
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.800
<v Speaker 2>for a murder he did not commit. Unseen Innocence is

129
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.199
<v Speaker 2>not just a documentary, it is a call to action

130
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.399
<v Speaker 2>and the film was directed Yeah, the film was directed

131
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>by Letitia McIntosh and it talks about the just the

132
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 2>tragic situation situation. Ray Ray Williams is also our guest

133
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.560
<v Speaker 2>who was convicted for fifty one years to life for

134
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.759
<v Speaker 2>a murder and could not have committed that he did

135
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:27.079
<v Speaker 2>not commit it, that he did not commit it.

136
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:29.720
<v Speaker 4>And it also says right here, I couldn't have committed it.

137
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:31.000
<v Speaker 4>I couldn't have done it.

138
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:35.679
<v Speaker 2>Well, right here it says, as I was reading Hollywood

139
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:41.679
<v Speaker 2>actor sal Mineo's tragic murder, eyewitnesses described a five foot

140
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.279
<v Speaker 2>nine white man with blondehair as the perpetrator, yet a

141
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.200
<v Speaker 2>black man standing five to five with a large afro.

142
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:50.639
<v Speaker 2>And I saw the video you had a large afro.

143
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:54.080
<v Speaker 2>Sir found himself convicted and sentenced to fifty one years.

144
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.720
<v Speaker 2>He has always maintained his innocence and he is fighting

145
00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:00.080
<v Speaker 2>to clear his name. So Letitia, can you do you

146
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.600
<v Speaker 2>find a reason why he was wrongly convicted and why

147
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:10.080
<v Speaker 2>the police did not take the evidence that was right

148
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.240
<v Speaker 2>in front of them, you.

149
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:15.600
<v Speaker 3>Know, and not living in that time and being being

150
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:17.759
<v Speaker 3>a child myself, I can't say. I can't get into

151
00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:20.159
<v Speaker 3>the minds, but we know the way this country was

152
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.679
<v Speaker 3>and the way things were going, and it happens right

153
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.039
<v Speaker 3>now to this very day. You know, we're really dealing

154
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.799
<v Speaker 3>with wrongful convictions and people who are unjustly convicted of crimes.

155
00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:34.000
<v Speaker 3>The one thing that I really wanted to do was

156
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:36.720
<v Speaker 3>help mister Williams tell his story. When he talked to me,

157
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:39.600
<v Speaker 3>he said, I was no angel, but I did not

158
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 3>do this. And the biggest thing is giving him an

159
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:49.240
<v Speaker 3>opportunity to separate his legacy from being the person who

160
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:53.600
<v Speaker 3>was convicted and accused of killing Salmonio. So that because

161
00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:56.320
<v Speaker 3>what's on the internet, you know, being an it person,

162
00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:59.080
<v Speaker 3>I know that it will never go away, but at

163
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.639
<v Speaker 3>least now you can combat a lot of the wrong

164
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.480
<v Speaker 3>information that was fed to the media. A lot of

165
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:06.720
<v Speaker 3>the information that you guys are going to look up

166
00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:09.679
<v Speaker 3>and see that information was information that was fed to

167
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 3>the media. That was probably what they wanted to do

168
00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:15.519
<v Speaker 3>just to close the case. That's the closest thing I

169
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 3>can think of.

170
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.799
<v Speaker 2>But that's just to say Ms Macintosh, sure you know,

171
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:21.240
<v Speaker 2>I hear you. I mean, I got it. But Ray, Ray,

172
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.039
<v Speaker 2>maybe you can help me out here. The easiest thing

173
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.000
<v Speaker 2>to close the case would have been to listen to

174
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 2>the witnesses.

175
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:29.399
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's what I don't get.

176
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.159
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, in pure racism, I guess is I'm

177
00:10:32.200 --> 00:10:35.440
<v Speaker 2>trying to look for an answer that's beyond pure racism,

178
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:36.720
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know if there is.

179
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:41.600
<v Speaker 4>One it is not. So that's what it is, pure racism,

180
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:44.480
<v Speaker 4>you know, to get rid of you know, they you know,

181
00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:47.159
<v Speaker 4>they just wanted to get rid of us, you know,

182
00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:52.080
<v Speaker 4>by all means necessary, you know, uh, get get someone

183
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:55.519
<v Speaker 4>to come to Gort and lie. You know, you know,

184
00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:59.559
<v Speaker 4>don't don't don't believe in the eyewitnesses. Believe in my witnesses,

185
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:04.039
<v Speaker 4>because the eyewitnesses a lion. That's the way I got it,

186
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:10.960
<v Speaker 4>you know, because you know, the jury should have believed

187
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:15.879
<v Speaker 4>what the eyewitness has said instead of what the DA

188
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:17.320
<v Speaker 4>witnesses said.

189
00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.399
<v Speaker 3>Him all the way around. I mean, when I listen

190
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.879
<v Speaker 3>to mister Williams tell the story, when I look at

191
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.039
<v Speaker 3>what happens when he's the only one who was in

192
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:29.679
<v Speaker 3>the court and he's the one that has the court documents,

193
00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:34.600
<v Speaker 3>he has his inmate copies of the trial records, and

194
00:11:34.679 --> 00:11:38.000
<v Speaker 3>all the information that's on the media is not what

195
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:41.080
<v Speaker 3>he has in his records. And so that's the biggest

196
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:43.960
<v Speaker 3>thing for him to clear his name, is for him

197
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.000
<v Speaker 3>to have the opportunity to get in front of the

198
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.679
<v Speaker 3>right people. That's why we want people to buy the book,

199
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.240
<v Speaker 3>because if you buy the books Unseen Innocence, then the

200
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:55.200
<v Speaker 3>name off one years to life. But you can buy

201
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:57.919
<v Speaker 3>the book at Unseen Innocence dot Com. You'll get an

202
00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:01.320
<v Speaker 3>opportunity to walk the walk that heat as he's explains

203
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:04.919
<v Speaker 3>how everything happened to him in court, how they utilized

204
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:08.759
<v Speaker 3>his seventeen year old wife, how they utilized people who

205
00:12:08.759 --> 00:12:12.159
<v Speaker 3>were supposedly friends, How they utilize all those type of

206
00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:15.799
<v Speaker 3>people to you know, testify against them, and then Railroad

207
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:17.600
<v Speaker 3>and him in so many different ways, you know.

208
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Did they use let Teacha, How did they use his

209
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:22.679
<v Speaker 2>seventeen year old wife and his friends?

210
00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:26.200
<v Speaker 3>Would they had her say that he came home covered

211
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:28.519
<v Speaker 3>in blood, and they had another guy say that he

212
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:31.399
<v Speaker 3>came home and said that he killed how many of them?

213
00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:34.639
<v Speaker 3>And then they they that's the type of stuff that

214
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:36.440
<v Speaker 3>they were putting out. They had all kinds of nonsense.

215
00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>But so what did they Why did his wife say that?

216
00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 2>What did they they must have they gave her? Did

217
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:45.200
<v Speaker 2>they bribe her? Did they threaten her?

218
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:46.679
<v Speaker 4>They threatened her?

219
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.960
<v Speaker 3>They threatened her, and she had gotten herself in some trouble,

220
00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:54.879
<v Speaker 3>and she had they had children, they were married, that

221
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:58.879
<v Speaker 3>they had children, and then they used that and held

222
00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:02.559
<v Speaker 3>that over her head, you know, so that they could

223
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:03.559
<v Speaker 3>so they were they were.

224
00:13:03.480 --> 00:13:05.159
<v Speaker 2>Going to threaten to take away the kids.

225
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Exactly.

226
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay, that's what it was.

227
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:11.440
<v Speaker 3>She wound up shooting herself in the head. She didn't

228
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:13.840
<v Speaker 3>commit suicide, but she did shoot herself in the head

229
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:17.039
<v Speaker 3>because of the pressure that she was under from those

230
00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:21.799
<v Speaker 3>police officers at that time. So she lived, she did live,

231
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:22.960
<v Speaker 3>and she's still alive now.

232
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Wow. So it was an attempted suicide.

233
00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:31.080
<v Speaker 4>No, she tried. She she she shot herself with her

234
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:36.279
<v Speaker 4>twenty two and it you know, so you know she

235
00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:40.600
<v Speaker 4>she she lived, twenty two is not going to do

236
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:44.720
<v Speaker 4>that much damaged close range, Okay, So you know, so

237
00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:47.799
<v Speaker 4>it went in, went in her head, but it took

238
00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:50.720
<v Speaker 4>a piece of her ear off, went in her head.

239
00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:53.759
<v Speaker 4>She went blind for a while and then she got

240
00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:56.840
<v Speaker 4>her eyesight back and then So how did.

241
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.840
<v Speaker 2>The circumstances point to you? Were you in the vicinity

242
00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:03.720
<v Speaker 2>of the crime at the time? No, okay, So where

243
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:06.200
<v Speaker 2>were you when this, when this murder, when this murder

244
00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:09.639
<v Speaker 2>and when this whole crime went down? Where were you?

245
00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 2>I was that my brother does how many miles a well?

246
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:19.960
<v Speaker 4>Uh, I could say it was thirty five minutes away

247
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:21.519
<v Speaker 4>from the murder scene.

248
00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:23.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay. So how did they finger you for this?

249
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:26.720
<v Speaker 3>The yellow car?

250
00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:28.679
<v Speaker 4>The yellow car?

251
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Okay, explain can you explain it to me, Letitia?

252
00:14:32.720 --> 00:14:34.279
<v Speaker 3>Well, Ray Ray could explain it to you better, but

253
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:36.159
<v Speaker 3>I can tell you the next show. What happened was

254
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:39.960
<v Speaker 3>the Sheriff's office put out a message saying that if

255
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:44.039
<v Speaker 3>anybody had, you know, knows anything about a yellow car

256
00:14:44.240 --> 00:14:46.759
<v Speaker 3>being loaned or rented or anything. So Ray Ray says

257
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:50.559
<v Speaker 3>that O'Connor Lincoln, which is where he rented this yellow

258
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:55.840
<v Speaker 3>car from Yellow he rented a yellow Dodge Colt because

259
00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.720
<v Speaker 3>he had a car that wasn't working that he bought

260
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:01.440
<v Speaker 3>from them, and they gave him that as a loaner,

261
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.240
<v Speaker 3>and he had that car. He said that the car

262
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.840
<v Speaker 3>had some technical issues, some mechanical issues. He wound up

263
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:10.200
<v Speaker 3>returning the car to them. He didn't even have the

264
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:14.480
<v Speaker 3>car that long. However, there was a yellow car that

265
00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 3>was seen by the eyewitnesses that the perpetrator got into. However,

266
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.840
<v Speaker 3>it was a yellow Toyota. And the reason why we

267
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:25.799
<v Speaker 3>know for sure it's a yellow Toyota is because when

268
00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:30.039
<v Speaker 3>the prosecutor was talking to the eyewitness, he asked him

269
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.720
<v Speaker 3>about the car several times, and he said, are you sure.

270
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:34.279
<v Speaker 3>Do you think it's a yellow He said, I know

271
00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:40.120
<v Speaker 3>it's a yellow Toyota because my brother has the same car.

272
00:15:40.399 --> 00:15:43.799
<v Speaker 2>Would it have been so hard to actually run down

273
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:46.720
<v Speaker 2>so what they did. So it seems to me what

274
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:49.840
<v Speaker 2>happened here is that the first yellow car they found,

275
00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:50.919
<v Speaker 2>they said this is the guy.

276
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:57.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, basically basically built the case around when they finally

277
00:15:57.519 --> 00:16:00.480
<v Speaker 4>got When they finally got around to me, I was

278
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:04.360
<v Speaker 4>on my way being extradited to Michigan the Battle Creek

279
00:16:04.440 --> 00:16:08.080
<v Speaker 4>to face charges out there, and they came to see

280
00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:14.240
<v Speaker 4>me right before I was extradited. And they came and saying, uh,

281
00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:16.320
<v Speaker 4>uh I had a yellow car. I said, yeah, I

282
00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:18.879
<v Speaker 4>had a yellow car, you know. They say what kind

283
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:21.720
<v Speaker 4>of car was it? I said, uh, I had a

284
00:16:21.799 --> 00:16:25.200
<v Speaker 4>dodge coat. You said, he shured, wasn't a Tyota? Nos

285
00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:29.000
<v Speaker 4>dodge coat and uh. And they asked me, did I

286
00:16:29.080 --> 00:16:31.480
<v Speaker 4>loaned the car to any of my white friends? I

287
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:35.480
<v Speaker 4>said no, I had the car returned back, uh to

288
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:38.159
<v Speaker 4>Old Conn of Lincoln before the It was nightfall, So

289
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:38.720
<v Speaker 4>you had.

290
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:40.639
<v Speaker 2>The car returned before the crime took place.

291
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:48.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, Jesus, yeah, his wife check this out. The

292
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:54.799
<v Speaker 4>they when they brought the rental agreement back into court.

293
00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:59.919
<v Speaker 4>You know, Uh, I never noticed, but the knowledge going

294
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:05.279
<v Speaker 4>going out because I didn't bought vehicles from these people before.

295
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:08.880
<v Speaker 4>They always put the miles going out and the miles

296
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:13.839
<v Speaker 4>coming in. The miles coming in is not on the

297
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:20.759
<v Speaker 4>paper Why Why because it would have proved, because it

298
00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:24.359
<v Speaker 4>would have proved that the mouse that I put on

299
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:28.160
<v Speaker 4>there would have been from O'Connor Lincoln to my mother's

300
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:32.400
<v Speaker 4>house on ninety third normany you know, and it wouldn't

301
00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:35.519
<v Speaker 4>have been no more extra miles from from there to

302
00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:41.079
<v Speaker 4>Western Shirt plus to Hollywood. No, those miles wouldn't have never.

00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:56.079
<v Speaker 2>Wasn't The time that you returned the car was not

309
00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:57.119
<v Speaker 2>on the paperwork.

00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:00.119
<v Speaker 4>None of that wasn't It wasn't none, none of what

311
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:01.240
<v Speaker 4>we're doing the paperwork.

312
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:03.920
<v Speaker 2>What was the charge about a pret sure?

313
00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:06.039
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

314
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Forger okay, So you're past like you said, you were

315
00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:13.440
<v Speaker 2>not an angel, but you were never a violent man.

316
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.640
<v Speaker 4>No, you know, I ain't no pump. You know, I

317
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:23.519
<v Speaker 4>ain't nothing soft about me. But uh, you know, I

318
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:25.480
<v Speaker 4>ain't no killer, right, So.

319
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand the motive here. So what they're saying

320
00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:31.200
<v Speaker 2>is that you killed him for money.

321
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:36.119
<v Speaker 4>And I had a money and you what, look, look

322
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:39.400
<v Speaker 4>I was I was selling dope. I was a drug dealer,

323
00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:41.920
<v Speaker 4>and I was a pimp, you know what I'm saying.

324
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:43.440
<v Speaker 4>So I was getting my money from a lot of

325
00:18:43.480 --> 00:18:46.680
<v Speaker 4>different angles. You know, I didn't need to go out

326
00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:50.319
<v Speaker 4>on the street and rob people for pocket change. You know,

327
00:18:50.720 --> 00:18:54.079
<v Speaker 4>if I was gonna be the person to rob some something,

328
00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:57.880
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna rob a jewelry store, I'm gonna rob a credigion,

329
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:00.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna rob something with some money at you know,

330
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:03.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm not. I wouldn't waste my time on street robbers.

331
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:05.680
<v Speaker 4>How much you gonna get out of a person's pocket

332
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:09.519
<v Speaker 4>twenty five thirty bucks back then, ain't no money?

333
00:19:09.759 --> 00:19:12.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, so r what was the crime? And we

334
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:14.680
<v Speaker 2>was the guy that was was sal outside his home

335
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:18.759
<v Speaker 2>and this person just killed him for money? Or was

336
00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:20.119
<v Speaker 2>there something else going on here?

337
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:26.680
<v Speaker 4>Unless he got paid to kill that man? He didn't ask,

338
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:30.160
<v Speaker 4>He didn't have no conversation with Salmony. Them from the

339
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.759
<v Speaker 4>eyewood from the seventeen year old, he said that the

340
00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:38.480
<v Speaker 4>man just walked up to him kidding. He went down.

341
00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:41.839
<v Speaker 4>He ran down the alley. There was no conversation, give

342
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:44.759
<v Speaker 4>me your money, give me your watch, what's in your wallet,

343
00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:50.160
<v Speaker 4>what's in your briefcase? None of that. That man was

344
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:55.039
<v Speaker 4>sent there to kill him for a reason, so he killed.

345
00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:58.279
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, Jerry. Let me clarify something for you.

346
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:02.359
<v Speaker 3>So Rayway had mentioned you about the man walking the dogs.

347
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:05.720
<v Speaker 3>So here's what I discovered in Ray Ray's paperwork. There

348
00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:09.079
<v Speaker 3>was a man. His name was Stephen Gustison. He went

349
00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:12.599
<v Speaker 3>in front of the grand jury. Now I found Stephen

350
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:15.079
<v Speaker 3>Gustinson and asked him if we could interview him. When

351
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 3>we interviewed him, I said, mister gustuson, how come you

352
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:19.640
<v Speaker 3>never pointed Ray Ray out in court? He said, I

353
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:21.519
<v Speaker 3>never went to court, And I was like, what do

354
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.200
<v Speaker 3>you mean? I was like, he was like, I only

355
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:26.079
<v Speaker 3>testified in front of the grand jury. However, in Ray

356
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:31.599
<v Speaker 3>Ray's official inmate copies, there is a Stephen Gustison that

357
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:35.720
<v Speaker 3>testified in court, and Ray Ray remembers a grown man

358
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:40.599
<v Speaker 3>in court Crosine. However, Stephen Gustinson was only seventeen years old.

359
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:44.480
<v Speaker 3>He was a child's actor from the Electric Company days.

360
00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:47.359
<v Speaker 3>That's and so we believe they hit him out. And

361
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:50.720
<v Speaker 3>so somebody else testified in the court, but with my

362
00:20:50.839 --> 00:20:54.720
<v Speaker 3>doctor Hennery. Mister Gustinson says, I was standing there with

363
00:20:54.759 --> 00:20:57.160
<v Speaker 3>my dog about fifty feet away on the other side

364
00:20:57.200 --> 00:20:59.480
<v Speaker 3>of the fence. I saw sal many old drive up

365
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Parkers car, get out his car, walk past the first

366
00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:05.599
<v Speaker 3>and the first entrance and into the second entrance where

367
00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:09.759
<v Speaker 3>his apartment is. He said, the person ran into him,

368
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:13.680
<v Speaker 3>hit him once, took off, and he said, I couldn't

369
00:21:13.720 --> 00:21:16.279
<v Speaker 3>even see him. He ran into the darkness. He was

370
00:21:16.319 --> 00:21:18.279
<v Speaker 3>like in sw Minyo, hit the ground, and then I

371
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:20.559
<v Speaker 3>saw the bucket of blood just coming out of him.

372
00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:24.480
<v Speaker 3>The blood was just coming out. And so at that

373
00:21:24.720 --> 00:21:27.960
<v Speaker 3>point that was when the other white, white witnesses said

374
00:21:28.079 --> 00:21:30.119
<v Speaker 3>that they saw a white man. The nine year old

375
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:32.680
<v Speaker 3>girl saw a white man run past her window. The

376
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:35.279
<v Speaker 3>security guard who was by where the car was parked,

377
00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:36.960
<v Speaker 3>he saw the white man hop.

378
00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:39.400
<v Speaker 4>Into the car and take her mother saw the man

379
00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:40.480
<v Speaker 4>run past her car.

380
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 2>So hold on, folks, So why was there a robbery

381
00:21:43.559 --> 00:21:45.000
<v Speaker 2>charge if there was no robbery.

382
00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:46.839
<v Speaker 3>There was no robbery.

383
00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:52.440
<v Speaker 4>It was no robbery doing you. The whole case is illegal.

384
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:56.279
<v Speaker 2>Right, But what I'm saying there's no robbery. But yeah, Ray,

385
00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:57.799
<v Speaker 2>I just want to make sure. I want to make

386
00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:00.119
<v Speaker 2>sure everybody understands. I want to make sure everybody It

387
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.079
<v Speaker 2>says the witnesses that there was no robbery, there was

388
00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:06.279
<v Speaker 2>no money taken from sal But you were charged with

389
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:08.519
<v Speaker 2>murder and robbery.

390
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:12.039
<v Speaker 3>Okay, murder and rob but not the robbery of Salmonio.

391
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:16.400
<v Speaker 3>They didn't convict him of the robbery of salmon.

392
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:22.839
<v Speaker 4>I got found not guilty of the robbery. Ye.

393
00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:25.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, because there was none. Okay, So we're telling

394
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:30.079
<v Speaker 2>me that Salmonio died by one punch.

395
00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:33.839
<v Speaker 3>One hit in the heart. Whoever, they didn't know what

396
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:34.440
<v Speaker 3>they were doing.

397
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:38.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So okay, So you think this person was way

398
00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:40.400
<v Speaker 4>taller than me and.

399
00:22:40.440 --> 00:22:44.559
<v Speaker 2>Obviously much whiter, right, and blond Yeah, and blonde hair.

400
00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:46.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean you couldn't. I mean, listen, Ray, you couldn't

401
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:50.119
<v Speaker 2>get more opposite. I mean, come on, you know. So

402
00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:52.000
<v Speaker 2>so this guy, so you guys think this was a

403
00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:55.279
<v Speaker 2>paid head where he comes up, punches him in the heart,

404
00:22:55.599 --> 00:22:59.039
<v Speaker 2>executes him, and then they pined on Ray. So do

405
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:00.279
<v Speaker 2>you think this was a paid.

406
00:23:00.079 --> 00:23:05.799
<v Speaker 4>Had It was two years later. That's the only thing

407
00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:09.319
<v Speaker 4>that that I can come to my mind that he

408
00:23:09.400 --> 00:23:12.599
<v Speaker 4>was killed by somebody for a reason.

409
00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:14.160
<v Speaker 2>Letcha you said two years later?

410
00:23:14.200 --> 00:23:17.519
<v Speaker 3>What it was two years later when mister Williams was

411
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:20.160
<v Speaker 3>convicted of the crime. So they needed to close the case.

412
00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:22.480
<v Speaker 3>That's all it was to it. They just needed to

413
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:24.839
<v Speaker 3>close the case. So they built it that when you

414
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:28.160
<v Speaker 3>look at the timeline, they started the whole process. They

415
00:23:28.200 --> 00:23:32.279
<v Speaker 3>started the whole nonsense to Williams. When about that O'Connor

416
00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:34.839
<v Speaker 3>Lincoln car, And then they started building the case, and

417
00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:36.559
<v Speaker 3>then they started coming up with all these things that

418
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:39.559
<v Speaker 3>they were feeding to the media. He was telling people

419
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:42.680
<v Speaker 3>that he did it, and they was there's jailhouse confessions

420
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:45.160
<v Speaker 3>and he was bragging about it in jail and there's

421
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:47.920
<v Speaker 3>no proof to that. And he started out, they want

422
00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:50.920
<v Speaker 3>I have newspaper articles that he wrote. He wrote an

423
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:54.240
<v Speaker 3>article to a magazine publication called The Players, where he

424
00:23:54.319 --> 00:23:57.519
<v Speaker 3>was asking for them to help him because he did

425
00:23:57.559 --> 00:24:01.000
<v Speaker 3>not commit this robbery. He has in his inmate copies

426
00:24:01.039 --> 00:24:05.799
<v Speaker 3>of the record. There's some trial transcripts of their conversations

427
00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:08.759
<v Speaker 3>that were taped with the other the people in the jail,

428
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:11.240
<v Speaker 3>and he didn't say anything about killing, said how many

429
00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:12.960
<v Speaker 3>and he was talking to them and telling him they

430
00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:15.279
<v Speaker 3>trying to pend this. I mean, these are the transcripts,

431
00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:18.079
<v Speaker 3>but that's not what's in the media. When you google it,

432
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.240
<v Speaker 3>that's not what you're going to see. You can see

433
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:23.200
<v Speaker 3>nonsense about him doing a seance. You un to see

434
00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.960
<v Speaker 3>all kinds of nonsense that's out there because Faminio was

435
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.759
<v Speaker 3>the darling of so many people because of the revel

436
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:33.880
<v Speaker 3>without a Cause, and then also in the late sixties

437
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.440
<v Speaker 3>early seventies, he came out as being bisexual, which was

438
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.200
<v Speaker 3>not popular in that timeframe, and he took a hit

439
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:44.119
<v Speaker 3>for it. So he's the darling of the LBGTQ community.

440
00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:46.720
<v Speaker 3>So a lot of the videos that you see now,

441
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:48.480
<v Speaker 3>a lot of the YouTube videos, a lot of the

442
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:51.599
<v Speaker 3>articles and things that are written is written by people

443
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:54.920
<v Speaker 3>who have a lot of respect for him, but they're

444
00:24:55.000 --> 00:24:59.000
<v Speaker 3>all feeding off the same incorrect information that was placed

445
00:24:59.000 --> 00:24:59.359
<v Speaker 3>out there.

446
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.839
<v Speaker 2>Seen Innostance is the documentary about the wrongful murder conviction

447
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:06.279
<v Speaker 2>of Ray Ray Williams. Ray Ray is our guest along

448
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:08.759
<v Speaker 2>with Lutitia McIntosh, the director of the film. Some more

449
00:25:08.839 --> 00:25:10.680
<v Speaker 2>questions as we discussed this, and I want to know

450
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:13.279
<v Speaker 2>what Ray's doing now and what's his state of mind.

451
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:15.200
<v Speaker 2>That's all coming up next on WBZ.

452
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:23.200
<v Speaker 1>It's a Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ, Boston's

453
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:23.799
<v Speaker 1>news radio.

454
00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:27.319
<v Speaker 2>We'll going back to Knightside. Gary Tang waiting for Dan tonight.

455
00:25:27.559 --> 00:25:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Sam Methler joins us. Coming up at eleven o'clock talk.

456
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:32.640
<v Speaker 2>It's some more politics on what's going on with the

457
00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:35.960
<v Speaker 2>presidential race right now. And I got some comments on

458
00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Aerosmith coming up, so you want to stick around for that.

459
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:42.839
<v Speaker 2>Ray Ray Williams is joining us along with the film

460
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:47.519
<v Speaker 2>directed by Letitia McIntosh, Unseen Innocence, a documentary about the

461
00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:50.559
<v Speaker 2>wrongful murder conviction of mister Williams. So, if I have

462
00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:54.599
<v Speaker 2>this correct, you were a parole in nineteen ninety, sir, Yes, yes,

463
00:25:55.240 --> 00:26:00.599
<v Speaker 2>parold in nineteen ninety. So you serve twelve years?

464
00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:03.119
<v Speaker 4>Well it's thirteen on the gong.

465
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:07.359
<v Speaker 2>Do you think that you were paroled because somebody was

466
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:09.799
<v Speaker 2>trying to do him make good? Because to serve thirteen

467
00:26:09.839 --> 00:26:12.960
<v Speaker 2>years for a murder and get paroled it seems to

468
00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 2>be pretty lenient. Was somebody trying to make up for

469
00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:18.720
<v Speaker 2>a make up for past sins?

470
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:21.519
<v Speaker 4>Oh no, I don't know what I had.

471
00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:25.720
<v Speaker 5>My cousin Fernando Jackson, who was a jail house attorney,

472
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:32.759
<v Speaker 5>have my sentence overturned. Yeah, that's what every appellate attorney

473
00:26:32.880 --> 00:26:37.400
<v Speaker 5>I had couldn't find a way to get this beat

474
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:42.279
<v Speaker 5>this case off of me. So my cousin figured out

475
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:45.559
<v Speaker 5>a way and he saw that I was sentenced wrong.

476
00:26:47.079 --> 00:26:51.519
<v Speaker 2>So letitia was this was this like a loophole or

477
00:26:51.559 --> 00:26:54.240
<v Speaker 2>did they did somebody actually buy the evidence? Were they

478
00:26:54.359 --> 00:26:56.799
<v Speaker 2>able to own overturn it for a clerical issue?

479
00:26:57.920 --> 00:27:00.200
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't even a clerical issue, was it. That's a

480
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:03.359
<v Speaker 3>claricul issue. I know that he basically knew that there

481
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:06.319
<v Speaker 3>was some things that went wrong in the original trial,

482
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:10.119
<v Speaker 3>and so being a jailhouse attorney and having the you know,

483
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:12.960
<v Speaker 3>strong knowledge of the law, he was able to help

484
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:15.960
<v Speaker 3>mister Williams get what he needed, which was to get

485
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:20.720
<v Speaker 3>the sentence reduced so that he could be paroled. And

486
00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:25.640
<v Speaker 3>that is in a nutshell what happened. His sentence was

487
00:27:25.680 --> 00:27:28.599
<v Speaker 3>reduced and then he's been out for what over twenty

488
00:27:28.680 --> 00:27:31.599
<v Speaker 3>five years, and he's not had any issues, you know,

489
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:34.279
<v Speaker 3>just lived his life, moved on from it. He wasn't

490
00:27:34.279 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 3>even going to deal with this. This whole thing came

491
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:39.680
<v Speaker 3>up because of his was your son at seven at

492
00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:45.400
<v Speaker 3>the time, Yeah, get the seven year old son, and

493
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:47.559
<v Speaker 3>somebody told his mother told him about it.

494
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:52.759
<v Speaker 4>Mother told him that I was a murderer. And he

495
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:56.319
<v Speaker 4>went in to a quiet mode on us when it

496
00:27:56.359 --> 00:28:00.960
<v Speaker 4>was our turn to have him at my right, and

497
00:28:01.000 --> 00:28:03.960
<v Speaker 4>then we just ask him what's wrong. He said, well,

498
00:28:04.400 --> 00:28:08.359
<v Speaker 4>my mother said that you're a killer. You know, he said, please,

499
00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:11.559
<v Speaker 4>don't don't don't, don't kill bad Man, don't kill Robin,

500
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:15.640
<v Speaker 4>don't kill Spider Man. You know, his his people, you know,

501
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:19.440
<v Speaker 4>his cartoon characters. You know. He at that time, I

502
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:23.160
<v Speaker 4>guess you believed him to be real, you know. And he,

503
00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:26.599
<v Speaker 4>you know, from what his mother told him, you know.

504
00:28:26.640 --> 00:28:28.680
<v Speaker 4>And I told him, I said, well, I'm sorry, but

505
00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:33.039
<v Speaker 4>your mama's a lot, you know. And and you know,

506
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:36.559
<v Speaker 4>but like I said in the documentary, you know, I

507
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:38.640
<v Speaker 4>don't know what's going on in his head, you know,

508
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:44.279
<v Speaker 4>because things have changed since then, you know. I mean,

509
00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:46.920
<v Speaker 4>it's hard for him to say he loves me. Now

510
00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:52.440
<v Speaker 4>he's ten years old. You know, it's weird. You know,

511
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:57.200
<v Speaker 4>he's still looking at me as a killer. Yeah, And

512
00:28:57.319 --> 00:29:01.839
<v Speaker 4>he seemed and he seemed he's seen the documentary and

513
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:06.880
<v Speaker 4>started crying. That's the cold thing. He couldn't even watch

514
00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:08.960
<v Speaker 4>the rest of it. He said, Dad, they were beating you,

515
00:29:09.759 --> 00:29:12.759
<v Speaker 4>they were hurting you. I said, yes, they were, you know.

516
00:29:13.079 --> 00:29:17.799
<v Speaker 4>And he couldn't understand that. He couldn't understand that. He said,

517
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:19.160
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to I don't want to see this

518
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:24.000
<v Speaker 4>no more, you know, cut it off that I wanted

519
00:29:24.079 --> 00:29:24.559
<v Speaker 4>him to see.

520
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:29.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's exceptionally hard to watch, I'm sure. So your

521
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:34.759
<v Speaker 2>pure motivation is to prove your innocence to your son.

522
00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:36.559
<v Speaker 4>That's right.

523
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's admirable, sir, I mean that that is that

524
00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:44.839
<v Speaker 2>is certainly admirable. And was this the woman his mother?

525
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Is she the one that testified against you?

526
00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:48.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

527
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:52.599
<v Speaker 2>No, oh no, no, okay, okay.

528
00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:56.319
<v Speaker 3>Now mister Winson married about four times.

529
00:29:57.599 --> 00:29:59.920
<v Speaker 2>So letitia, what is the next step here? Where can

530
00:29:59.920 --> 00:30:03.039
<v Speaker 2>we see the documentary? And also if you want to

531
00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:04.640
<v Speaker 2>mention the name of the book again.

532
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:06.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm so glad that you mention that. So if you

533
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:08.880
<v Speaker 3>go to Unseen Innocence dot com you will be able

534
00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:11.480
<v Speaker 3>to purchase the book fifty one years to life. And

535
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:14.480
<v Speaker 3>then we are working on distribution. We have had some meetings.

536
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:17.839
<v Speaker 3>If the goal is to get the documentary so we

537
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:21.000
<v Speaker 3>can have it out there so people can watch the documentary,

538
00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:23.359
<v Speaker 3>and then we also want to do a movie because

539
00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:26.440
<v Speaker 3>the movie will then allow us to or a series,

540
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:29.400
<v Speaker 3>to delve into all of the intricacies of this story

541
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 3>because there is a lot to it. There's a lot

542
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:36.359
<v Speaker 3>to unpack, and so the documentary can only touch the

543
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:38.799
<v Speaker 3>surface of things. But if we can do a movie,

544
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.359
<v Speaker 3>that would allow us to really get into the full

545
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:46.000
<v Speaker 3>intricacies all the way through, you know, and even up

546
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:46.480
<v Speaker 3>to now.

547
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:49.839
<v Speaker 2>So, Letitia, this is the only film you've done.

548
00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:50.960
<v Speaker 4>No, sir.

549
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.599
<v Speaker 3>I have a movie that I did when I came

550
00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:56.759
<v Speaker 3>out of film school. It's called Freshman. It's fresh and

551
00:30:56.799 --> 00:30:59.480
<v Speaker 3>the word mulamb denou with the with the Greek letter

552
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:01.599
<v Speaker 3>in ulan the new it looks like the word man.

553
00:31:01.799 --> 00:31:05.319
<v Speaker 3>But Freshman is a movie that deals with college fraternities

554
00:31:05.359 --> 00:31:05.920
<v Speaker 3>and date rate.

555
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:11.240
<v Speaker 2>So this okay. So, but from did you feel you

556
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:13.359
<v Speaker 2>were going to be a documentarian? I mean, you did

557
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 2>that out of college, but from what I read, you

558
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:18.599
<v Speaker 2>were looking to do animation and when you stumbled upon

559
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:20.599
<v Speaker 2>this story, you had a calling to do it.

560
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:23.240
<v Speaker 3>And yeah, I felt like this was an assignment that

561
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:25.720
<v Speaker 3>guy gave me. To help mister Williams tell his story

562
00:31:25.759 --> 00:31:28.079
<v Speaker 3>because my background was in it. I worked in public

563
00:31:28.119 --> 00:31:30.440
<v Speaker 3>accurning firms and I was a trainer and I just

564
00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:33.359
<v Speaker 3>wanted to learn how to animate my training videos, which

565
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:36.200
<v Speaker 3>is why I went to film school. So when I

566
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:38.880
<v Speaker 3>finished it, before I did the music video, and I

567
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:41.279
<v Speaker 3>did a couple other little projects and stuff like that.

568
00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:44.240
<v Speaker 3>But when I got introduced to him. The other thing

569
00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:46.559
<v Speaker 3>about sal Many is my brother's name was sal My

570
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:48.920
<v Speaker 3>deceased brother's name was Sala. So I was like, there

571
00:31:49.000 --> 00:31:51.079
<v Speaker 3>was It made me pay attention a little bit more.

572
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:53.200
<v Speaker 3>But I read about it and I was like, I'll

573
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.279
<v Speaker 3>come from the adage. It doesn't sound right. There's a

574
00:31:56.440 --> 00:31:59.359
<v Speaker 3>lion there somewhere. And the problem that I had was

575
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:03.319
<v Speaker 3>that witnesses saw a white man and he was clearly

576
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:06.079
<v Speaker 3>a light skinned black man with an afro. He can't

577
00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:10.359
<v Speaker 3>even pass He's not you know, he's not like Rashida Jones.

578
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:14.079
<v Speaker 3>He can't even pass for white. He is a traditional,

579
00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:18.640
<v Speaker 3>light complexed black man. So I was like, this doesn't

580
00:32:18.640 --> 00:32:20.799
<v Speaker 3>all right. So I just wanted to help him tell

581
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:22.480
<v Speaker 3>his story. That was all I wanted to do was

582
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:23.559
<v Speaker 3>help him get a story out.

583
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:29.079
<v Speaker 4>Okay, but checked this out. Ten minutes later, I'm three

584
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:34.400
<v Speaker 4>blocks over. Now I'm not in a yellow car. Now

585
00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:39.319
<v Speaker 4>I'm in a four door white car. And now I'm

586
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:45.880
<v Speaker 4>bad headed, and now I have a crime partner with me,

587
00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:51.319
<v Speaker 4>and we're robbing someone else on the street three blocks over.

588
00:32:51.400 --> 00:32:58.680
<v Speaker 4>Ten minutes later, that I went from blonde hair to

589
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 4>no hair, yellow car to a big white car, and

590
00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:08.799
<v Speaker 4>now I got a crime partner in ten minutes.

591
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:15.039
<v Speaker 3>Would he would he's speaking to the robberies that he

592
00:33:15.240 --> 00:33:17.519
<v Speaker 3>was convicted of. That is part of the reason why

593
00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:21.440
<v Speaker 3>since got overturned, because the robberies that were tied to

594
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:25.400
<v Speaker 3>his conviction, they were unsolved robberies that happened in the area,

595
00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 3>and so they tied a lot of it. It was

596
00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:30.799
<v Speaker 3>one of the robberies. He wasn't in the hospital when

597
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:32.200
<v Speaker 3>the robbery occurred.

598
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:34.279
<v Speaker 2>So the robbery had nothing to do with sal Mineo.

599
00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:39.200
<v Speaker 3>No, these were just okay when we buried okay, but

600
00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:40.960
<v Speaker 3>they were part of the sentencing.

601
00:33:41.759 --> 00:33:45.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, we buried the lead on that because.

602
00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:51.119
<v Speaker 4>They used the robberies to make the murder stronger.

603
00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:53.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, No, what they were doing is they were trying

604
00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:55.319
<v Speaker 2>to solve as many they were trying to shut as

605
00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:59.000
<v Speaker 2>many cases as possible at your expense, and they did,

606
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:00.079
<v Speaker 2>and they.

607
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:03.160
<v Speaker 3>Your death because there were more. He was actually charged

608
00:34:03.160 --> 00:34:06.279
<v Speaker 3>with more than than than ten robberies. He was charge

609
00:34:06.279 --> 00:34:08.079
<v Speaker 3>with a lot more, but they couldn't make them stick

610
00:34:08.360 --> 00:34:10.039
<v Speaker 3>so that he didn't get convicted of them.

<v Speaker 2>one Lot to one pack coming up tonight eleven o'clock.

634
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Sam Metler joins us as we talked to politics and

635
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:40.320
<v Speaker 2>entertainment right here on WBZ.

636
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan ray Line from the Window World

637
00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:50.199
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio.

638
00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:57.639
<v Speaker 2>You know, I love Aerosmith, absolutely love it. All the

639
00:35:57.639 --> 00:36:00.280
<v Speaker 2>great bands out of Boston. So many great bands came

640
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:13.239
<v Speaker 2>out of this city. Jay Giles Band, Boston obviously, Aerosmith phenomenal,

641
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:18.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean just absolutely phenomenal. I loved and you just

642
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:20.039
<v Speaker 2>think that these guys are going to go on forever,

643
00:36:20.119 --> 00:36:22.079
<v Speaker 2>because you see Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones at

644
00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:25.880
<v Speaker 2>eighty plus still selling out stadiums, and Keith Richards somehow

645
00:36:26.039 --> 00:36:31.239
<v Speaker 2>still out there playing guitar, and even Aerosmith like Stephen Tyler,

646
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:34.599
<v Speaker 2>like the guy, you know, when was he when was

647
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:36.000
<v Speaker 2>it never going to catch up to him? And now

648
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:40.079
<v Speaker 2>it has. They're not going to be performing live anymore.

649
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:46.960
<v Speaker 2>His voice. I mean that dude's voice. I mean, was

650
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:53.480
<v Speaker 2>there a better live show voice than Steven Tyler. I'm

651
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:57.199
<v Speaker 2>just talking off the top of my head, hear I'm thinking.

652
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean there are other great bands, Don't get me wrong.

653
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:05.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean that you could see lot. I mean, Bruce

654
00:37:06.960 --> 00:37:11.119
<v Speaker 2>Bruce's voice obviously was different than Tyler's. I mean, Bruce

655
00:37:11.159 --> 00:37:14.119
<v Speaker 2>had a it's got a strength to it, It's got

656
00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:18.280
<v Speaker 2>a blue collar tone to it. But Stephen Tyler's voice,

657
00:37:18.480 --> 00:37:24.000
<v Speaker 2>the range, my god, and the way he could like

658
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:29.639
<v Speaker 2>sing the blues too, you know, Joe Perry and guitar,

659
00:37:29.719 --> 00:37:35.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean, phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal. I was. I was just

660
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:38.360
<v Speaker 2>looking at some of their their albums. I remember Toys

661
00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:42.840
<v Speaker 2>in the Attic when that came out, and you know,

662
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:49.119
<v Speaker 2>we all, hey, let's play the Big Tennant's Cricket. Oh.

663
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:51.400
<v Speaker 2>That was a terrific album. And that was in nineteen

664
00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:55.400
<v Speaker 2>seventy three. Toys in the Addict sold eight million. That

665
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:57.559
<v Speaker 2>was their third album. Carter Allen's got this up on

666
00:37:57.679 --> 00:38:01.159
<v Speaker 2>ZLX dot com, which is also a sister station. I mean, look,

667
00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Carter Allen's a guy that knows more about music than anybody.

668
00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:08.599
<v Speaker 2>Toys in the Attic I remember that was a great album.

669
00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Pumped to me was the one I loved, Loving an elevator,

670
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:23.159
<v Speaker 2>phenomenal tune and the way he would use his voice,

671
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:33.559
<v Speaker 2>going up and down like that permanent vacation. Let's see

672
00:38:33.519 --> 00:38:38.239
<v Speaker 2>it well, Rocks Rocks is legendary. Back in the saddle again,

673
00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:43.639
<v Speaker 2>Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Samuel Song

674
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:45.960
<v Speaker 2>and Dance was great. Train kept the ruling. You know,

675
00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:48.679
<v Speaker 2>I had that blues thing to it, almost like a

676
00:38:48.840 --> 00:38:56.639
<v Speaker 2>Jay Giles type of thing, except a lot harder. Night

677
00:38:56.639 --> 00:39:03.320
<v Speaker 2>in the Ruts. That only sold a million. Huh, walk

678
00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:05.079
<v Speaker 2>in a hard place. I thought that would have sold

679
00:39:05.119 --> 00:39:08.119
<v Speaker 2>more than that. But I mean just as a singer,

680
00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:11.960
<v Speaker 2>and that at some point in time that voice had

681
00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to go right. Like I wonder that about Bruce. I mean,

682
00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:18.119
<v Speaker 2>how much longer can Bruce do it? I mean, Bruce

683
00:39:18.199 --> 00:39:23.519
<v Speaker 2>is seventy and he just keeps cranking it out. I mean, now,

684
00:39:23.559 --> 00:39:26.639
<v Speaker 2>the thing I hear about Springsteen is that he won't

685
00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:32.280
<v Speaker 2>talk for days before a show. No, he won't talk

686
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:36.280
<v Speaker 2>at all before, just to keep his to keep his

687
00:39:36.400 --> 00:39:45.559
<v Speaker 2>voice intact. But Steven Tyler with the the hair, and

688
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:48.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, he never whenever I saw him, and I

689
00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:50.760
<v Speaker 2>saw him at Foxborough once he was on the sidelines

690
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:55.199
<v Speaker 2>of a Patriots game. Joe Perry too, But Steven Tyler

691
00:39:55.360 --> 00:40:00.360
<v Speaker 2>never looked like he should like grow like all right, dude,

692
00:40:00.360 --> 00:40:03.920
<v Speaker 2>give it up. You know you're eighty, you're seventy, you're whatever.

693
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:07.679
<v Speaker 2>Even when he was on well not America's got talent,

694
00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:12.679
<v Speaker 2>what American idol? You know? He still could pull off

695
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:15.719
<v Speaker 2>the long hair. He still could put off the rings,

696
00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:20.039
<v Speaker 2>the jewelry, the bandan is, the scarves, the scarves around

697
00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:25.519
<v Speaker 2>the microphone. He could still pull it off. He can.

698
00:40:25.679 --> 00:40:28.079
<v Speaker 2>He can still pull it off today. It's just his

699
00:40:28.159 --> 00:40:35.880
<v Speaker 2>voice can't do it anymore. What a band man, I'm okay,

700
00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:39.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm probably thinking maybe a c DC, not Angus. Angus

701
00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:44.000
<v Speaker 2>was the lead singer who died, but bon Scott Scott,

702
00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:46.760
<v Speaker 2>I know Brian, Brian If I got Brian's last name,

703
00:40:46.840 --> 00:40:51.519
<v Speaker 2>who was the lead singer of ac DC that took

704
00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:56.199
<v Speaker 2>over for bon Scott. That dude's voice, what he does

705
00:40:56.320 --> 00:41:01.880
<v Speaker 2>or has done, probably he and Tayba right there, and

706
00:41:01.960 --> 00:41:03.880
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he was still doing it up to

707
00:41:03.920 --> 00:41:10.280
<v Speaker 2>this point. Steven Tyler, good job, Aerosmith, one of the greats,

708
00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:13.800
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not going to do any more live shows.

709
00:41:13.920 --> 00:41:16.559
<v Speaker 2>You know what, dudes, it's okay. You've got a great run.

710
00:41:17.199 --> 00:41:20.719
<v Speaker 2>You deserve a break, which is what we'll take. Sam
