I've 19 00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:43.359 already booked a room for two nights for my daughter 20 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:46.359 and I. Next I'll have to rent a car to 21 00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:49.799 save putting more mileage on my car. I have to 22 00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:52.040 get an outfit for me and one for my daughter 23 00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:54.840 to wear to the wedding. Got to give my haircut. 24 00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.840 Then I have to book another room for the drive home, 25 00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:00.840 because we're going to travel to this the San Francisco 26 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:03.640 area the day after the wedding and spend time there 27 00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.519 so my daughter and I can meet my three little 28 00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:09.400 great nephews. I also have to come up with a 29 00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.199 wedding gift, which'll probably be a check boy. Do I 30 00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.759 miss my family. I also wanted to let you know 31 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.479 I'll probably be taking next week off. The kids are 32 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.879 finally taking me camping this weekend, and I don't think 33 00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:26.319 i'll be back in time to pull off researching and 34 00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:29.960 getting another case together. I'll try to put a miniesota out, 35 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:34.680 but no promises. The case this episode is a wild 36 00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.039 one that I have never heard of before. Normally, we 37 00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:41.319 start our cases at the beginning, but I think I 38 00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.439 might take a different approach this time. I'm going to 39 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:48.759 start backwards to unfold it. With that, let's get into 40 00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:53.639 it this last time. She spent over thirty years incarcerated. 41 00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:58.800 Trans woman Harvey Marceline was released from prison on August seven, 42 00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:02.719 two thousand and night. Harvey was eighty one years old 43 00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:07.479 at the time. Harvey, who also went by Marceline Harvey, 44 00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:12.719 is a killer technically a serial killer, but the system 45 00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:16.520 believed Harvey had served her time although she was on 46 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.759 a lifetime parole. The belief was now that she was 47 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.280 in her eighties and very frail, she was no longer 48 00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:29.560 a threat to society and boy the justice system. They 49 00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:34.560 had no idea how very wrong they were. After her release, 50 00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:39.039 in twenty nineteen, Harvey met sixty eight year old Susan 51 00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:44.560 Leyden on a social media platform. The two became instant friends. 52 00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:48.599 They agreed to meet at a park, and shortly after 53 00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:52.719 their meeting, they decided to live together in an LGBTQ 54 00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:58.599 friendly homeless shelter. Then pulling their welfare checks together, they 55 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:02.960 moved into an apartment in Brooklyn. During the course of 56 00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:07.879 their living together, the two developed romantic feelings for one another. 57 00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:12.000 Harvey would even post pictures of Susan on his social 58 00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:19.079 media One had the caption love Personified. Susan's social media 59 00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:23.120 account painted a much different story. In one of her 60 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:27.160 replies to a Harvey post, Susan called Harvey a freak, 61 00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:31.680 a close friend of Susan's reported that Susan was getting 62 00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.600 increasingly afraid of Harvey and she wanted to end their relationship. 63 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:41.639 So it seems that Susan was somewhat released from the 64 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:46.720 relationship and from the apartment she shared with Harvey. Susan 65 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:50.319 went on to live in an LGBTQ shelter in Brooklyn. 66 00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:55.480 On March fourth of twenty twenty two, Harvey, who is 67 00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:59.279 now eighty three years old, entered a ninety nine cent 68 00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:03.000 store right being a motorized scooter, you know, the kind 69 00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:07.439 that you might see for people with physical disabilities. On 70 00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:11.360 the surveillance footage, Harvey stands up from the scooter and 71 00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:15.240 grabs an item from the shelf inside the store. When 72 00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.639 Harvey stands up, there's a plastic bag that she had 73 00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:26.480 been sitting on. The bag contained Susan's leg. You're probably wondering, now, 74 00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:29.439 how did we suddenly go from a senior couple living 75 00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:34.560 together to parting of ways to this? Well, maybe that's 76 00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:39.720 why we don't usually tell stories backwards. On March third, 77 00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:43.360 twenty twenty two, a man found a human torso in 78 00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:45.800 a bag and a shopping cart on the corner near 79 00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:51.319 where Harvey lived. Police obtained days of surveillance footage of 80 00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:55.079 the nearby area and they diligently went through all of it. 81 00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:58.959 They found some with Harvey leaving her apartment with a 82 00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:03.160 garbage bag. This is believed to have been Susan's torso. 83 00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:08.040 They also found footage of Susan visiting Harvey's apartment on 84 00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:12.160 February twenty seventh, but they could not find any footage 85 00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.639 of Susan ever leaving. After her visit to the ninety 86 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:21.399 nine cent store, Harvey was arrested at her apartment. Plus 87 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:25.319 police detectives came armed with a search warrant for the unit. 88 00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:30.920 Inside they discovered Susan's head and a few other body parts. 89 00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:35.680 There were bloody sheets, a bloody mop, along with power 90 00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:39.120 tools and cleaners that had been recently purchased at a 91 00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:44.600 home depot by Harvey. Susan's autopsy came back and it 92 00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:48.079 was definitive that she had been murdered. She did not 93 00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:53.079 die of natural causes before her dismemberment. Blunt force trauma 94 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:57.120 to her head was the reason for her death. After 95 00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.720 being arrested and charged for Susan's murder, Harvey was whisked 96 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:05.839 away to Riker's Island with no possibility of bailing out. 97 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:09.800 So much for being a fair little old lady and 98 00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.720 definitely not a golden girl. Now we'll go back to 99 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:20.120 Harvey's early life. Harvey Marceline was born nineteen thirty eight 100 00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:24.319 in Harlem, New York. They were assigned mail at birth. 101 00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:28.639 Their dad was a shipping clerk and their mother a seamstress. 102 00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:32.720 Not long after their birth, the family, whose only child 103 00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:37.120 was Harvey, moved to the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan. 104 00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.839 This is considered a more affordable area in Manhattan. Little 105 00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:46.759 Harvey was spoiled by his parents, that is until the 106 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:51.519 dad passed away when Harvey was ten. Harvey attended a 107 00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:55.759 Catholic church school in Harlem, and according to Harvey, they 108 00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:59.879 were sexually abused here. They claimed to be whipped and 109 00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.959 forced to eat rotten food by the nuns of the church, 110 00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:08.519 and this caused them to act out. In Harvey's teenage years, 111 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:15.040 they were sexually active and displayed sexually deviant behavior. By 112 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:18.360 the time Harvey was thirteen, they dressed in drag for 113 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:23.079 Halloween and loved it so much they continued to dress 114 00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:27.759 in drag afterwards until realizing they must be suffering from 115 00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:34.440 gender dysphoria or possibly gender euphoria. During this time, Harvey 116 00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:39.000 had their first sexual encounter with a man. In nineteen 117 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:42.879 fifty two, at the age of fourteen, Harvey was accused 118 00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:45.919 of trying to sexually assault an eight year old girl, 119 00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:51.039 only to be put into a mental institution. Afterwards, Harvey 120 00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:55.279 would spend their whole summer in the institution being evaluated. 121 00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:00.519 The medical reports reflected that Harvey was a known truant, 122 00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:04.600 a thief, and a sexual deviant for having sex with 123 00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:09.039 both men and women. My god, fourteen years old and 124 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:12.279 having sex with both men and women, I think the 125 00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:14.799 men and women having sex with a child should be 126 00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:20.559 considered the deviants. After being released from the institution, Harvey 127 00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:24.080 would return to the school and graduate from it, But 128 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:29.240 then Harvey became involved in more criminal behavior. In nineteen 129 00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:33.159 fifty seven, Harvey was busted for burglary and they spent 130 00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.279 several months locked up in county jail. Harvey also turned 131 00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.919 to drugs as an escape. To their credit, Harvey sought 132 00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:47.120 out mental help, but no psychiatrist or therapist could pinpoint 133 00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:51.600 what mental disorder Harvey was suffering from. In the early 134 00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:56.519 nineteen sixties, Harvey married a woman named Florence Jackson, but 135 00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:59.600 the marriage was rocky from the get go, with Harvey 136 00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:03.600 being anc faithful. To look at Harvey, you may see 137 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:08.000 no physical beauty, nothing outward, especially as they got older, 138 00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:14.039 but Harvey is apparently very charming and smooth with the words. 139 00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:20.399 Harvey willingly admitted themselves to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital on April ninth, 140 00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:24.559 nineteen sixty two, where they were given the diagnosis of 141 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:30.799 qunic schizophrenia and paranoia. They were discharged into their wife's 142 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.879 custody on April sixteenth, nineteen sixty two. While there were 143 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.759 many indiscretions for them. Harvey had a mainside dish named 144 00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:46.320 Jacqueline Bonds. They even got a Manhattan apartment together, but 145 00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.399 Jacqueline was not happy in the relationship and she tried 146 00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:53.879 to break things off with Harvey. In March nineteen sixty three. 147 00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:59.480 Harvey told Jacqueline, I'll get you for this, and on 148 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:04.200 April eighteenth, nineteen sixty three, in their apartment, Harvey would 149 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:08.279 shoot Jacqueline three times with a thirty two caliber revolver, 150 00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:14.559 ending her life. Harvey was arrested, charged, and at their trial, 151 00:11:14.759 --> 00:11:18.679 Harvey would be sentenced to twenty years to life in Attica, 152 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.919 and that's because the jury couldn't decide on the death 153 00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:26.639 penalty or not. During their prison time, they were a 154 00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:30.960 full on participant in the Attica prison riots, which was 155 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:36.039 a crazy crime in itself. On September ninth, eighteen seventy one, 156 00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:42.519 two thousand, two hundred inmates at Attica Correctional Facility rebelled 157 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:48.399 over living conditions and demands for political rights. The inmates 158 00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:51.879 gained control of a portion of the prison, taking forty 159 00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:57.080 two staff members hostage. A four day period of negotiations 160 00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.440 took place in which the authorities agree I read to 161 00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:04.039 a total of twenty eight demands made by the inmates, 162 00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:07.879 but the parties were unable to resolve the issues of 163 00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:12.720 amnesty from criminal prosecution for the takeover, and the removal 164 00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:18.200 of the facility's superintendent. This is when Governor Neilson Rockefeller 165 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.600 ordered the state police to take back control of the facility. 166 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:27.720 This was accomplished on September thirteenth, nineteen seventy one. In all, 167 00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:32.639 forty three people lost their lives in the uprising, including 168 00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:36.960 eleven correction officers. And you all know how I love 169 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:42.000 my dark history. In May of nineteen eighty four, Harvey, 170 00:12:42.039 --> 00:12:46.480 who was now fully identifying as a transwoman, was released 171 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.440 from prison on parole. You might have noticed I used 172 00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:54.480 the they then pronouns before the transition, but now that 173 00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:58.000 Harvey is fully identifying as a trans woman, I'm going 174 00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:02.000 to go back to using She and her Harvey secured 175 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.759 herself a home in an extended stay type place. This 176 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:10.960 was in Harlem. Because of her incarceration, Harvey had troubles 177 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:15.639 finding employment. Anne was in financial dire. She ended up 178 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:19.639 renting out a room to make ends meet. In early 179 00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:22.879 nineteen eighty five, at the age of forty seven, Harvey 180 00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.200 would meet a twenty nine year old woman named Anna Miranda. 181 00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:30.559 Anna was a sex worker and she was a heroin attic. 182 00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:36.039 Anna quickly would become Harvey's new roommate. On October twenty 183 00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:40.320 ninth of nineteen eighty five, Harvey consumed some crack cocaine 184 00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:44.399 and in a heated argument with Anna, Harvey lunged at 185 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:48.759 her with a knife, stabbing Anna to death. Harvey would 186 00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:53.279 dismember Anna's body, place the parts in trash bags, and 187 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:57.960 then distribute the bags around Central Park. As the news 188 00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.840 of human remains found in beads around Central Park began 189 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:07.279 to materialize. Harvey's neighbor called police, announcing that he had 190 00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:11.440 seen Harvey leaving her room with blood soaked trash bags. 191 00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:17.480 Harvey was immediately arrested and charged with Anna's murder. At 192 00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:20.799 her trial, Harvey admitted that she killed Anna, but she 193 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:24.320 said it was in self defense. She explained that they 194 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:27.600 were fighting about Anna not paying her rent, and then 195 00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:31.480 Anna got aggressive with her and she fought back. Anna's 196 00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:36.159 autopsy report showed that she had been stabbed thirty three times. 197 00:14:36.720 --> 00:14:40.840 Because Harvey admitted to the crime, her charge was reduced 198 00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:45.799 from murder to manslaughter, but since she violated her parole 199 00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:49.679 by committing another felony, she was returned back to prison 200 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:52.840 to serve out the rest of her life sentence, with 201 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:57.080 the manslaughter sentence adding twelve years to the life sentence. 202 00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:03.720 Between nineteen eight, twenty six to twenty nineteen, Harvey would 203 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:10.519 appeal her sentence fifteen times, being denied each time. In 204 00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:15.320 nineteen ninety three, Harvey began her hormone therapy and she 205 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:19.279 was dedicated to full on transitioning from male to female, 206 00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:23.200 which brings us current to where we started the case. 207 00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:28.960 In twenty nineteen. At Harvey's parole. Harvey has since admitted 208 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:34.720 to having split personalities. When is her female side Marcelene, 209 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:41.200 Marcelline is a peaceful, caring lesbian, while her male counterpart, 210 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.480 Harvey is a bad guy. He's misogynistic, a deviant, and 211 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:52.200 very aggressive. Harvey's trial for the murder of Susan Leyden 212 00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:56.120 began in March of twenty twenty four. It is still 213 00:15:56.200 --> 00:16:01.919 listed as ongoing. She has pleaded not guilty. If Harvey, 214 00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:04.600 who is at the age of eighty seven right now, 215 00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:09.039 lives through the trial and is found guilty, she will 216 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:12.720 never haunt the streets of New York ever again, and 217 00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:16.519 will most likely die right where she belongs in prison. 218 00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:24.399 Rest in Power, Susan, Jacqueline and Anna our True Crime Quickie. 219 00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:29.279 This episode is from southern California. In nineteen ninety, twenty 220 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:33.480 five year old Tasha Santiago was a trans woman doing 221 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.039 sex work in and around Oceanside, California. This is a 222 00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:42.279 coastal city in North County San Diego. It's very close 223 00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:48.120 to the Marine base Camp Pendleton. On December tenth, nineteen ninety, 224 00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:51.360 Tasha had a room at the Wally Johnson Motel in 225 00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:57.120 Oceanside that night, she serviced two Camp Pendleton marines by 226 00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:00.240 giving each a blow job, not in her room, but 227 00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:04.839 in an alley way next to the motel. These marines 228 00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:09.799 were Todd Thornton and Jeffrey Hammond's. With the second marine, Jeffrey, 229 00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:14.039 he could not ejaculate, and he demanded the eighteen dollars 230 00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:18.400 he paid Tasha back. Patasha well, she had a strict 231 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.240 no return policy that she stuck to. She did what 232 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:25.440 was asked of her. Wasn't her fault. Jeffrey had an 233 00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:30.559 issue ejaculating. Then the man got rough with her. Jeffrey 234 00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:32.720 told Todd to hold her down while he beat the 235 00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:36.279 shit out of her. Patasha she was able to wriggle 236 00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:39.839 loose and she fled. Unfortunately, she had to leave her 237 00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:45.359 jacket behind. The men finally left, taking Tasha's jacket with them. 238 00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:50.160 Tasha returned back to her room, but realizing her jacket 239 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:54.119 had been stolen, she went downstairs. She used to pay 240 00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:57.240 phone and she called the police to report her jacket 241 00:17:57.359 --> 00:18:01.400 stolen and that she had been assaulted by two marines 242 00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:05.759 in an alleyway. The following evening, she saw the two 243 00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:10.720 marines driving by her motel again. Tasha went back downstairs 244 00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:14.599 to use the payphone to call police. When she called, 245 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:17.599 she was put on hold, and as she was waiting 246 00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:21.240 for the dispatcher to come back on the line, gunshots 247 00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:26.480 rang out. Soon nine one one Dispatch was being flooded 248 00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:31.279 with calls about the shots. As police arrived, they found 249 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:34.759 Tasha lying dead on the driveway of the Wally Johnson Motel. 250 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:38.200 The phone booth she had been calling the police from 251 00:18:38.519 --> 00:18:43.680 had its glass completely shattered. There were many witnesses who 252 00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:47.599 saw the two men responsible for the crime. Residents who 253 00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:52.119 lived at the motel were very forthcoming with information. They 254 00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:55.240 described the men and the car that the gunfire had 255 00:18:55.240 --> 00:18:59.640 come from, including giving police the car's license plate number. 256 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.920 Rather quickly, police were able to pick up the Marines, 257 00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:08.920 Todd Thornton and Jeffrey Hammonds. The Marines were questioned and 258 00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:12.839 their murder weapon was seized, but due to the men 259 00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:16.240 being Marines, the government wanted to hold on to the 260 00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:20.400 jurisdiction for a bit. They probably were trying to figure 261 00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:23.480 out how to cover it all up and possibly do 262 00:19:23.640 --> 00:19:28.480 an in house punishment for the rotten Marines. Eventually, the 263 00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:34.039 Camp Pendleton Administration and Naval Investigation Team gave in and 264 00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:37.400 they handed Todd and Jeffrey over to the civilian Ocean 265 00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:42.799 side police. Jeffrey was sentenced for the first degree murder 266 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:46.960 of Tasha twenty five years to life. It would seem 267 00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:50.599 he went up for parole multiple times, but he was denied. 268 00:19:51.319 --> 00:19:55.359 I figure it's been what thirty five years now, I'm 269 00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.680 sure he's out. Todd was sentenced for the manslaughter of 270 00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:03.160 Todd Ushia. He only served a few years in prison, 271 00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:07.200 and he was released on parole in the late nineteen nineties. 272 00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:11.880 Come on, you dumbasses. Eighteen dollars for a blowjob sounds 273 00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:15.839 like a bargain, even in nineteen ninety. Seems to me 274 00:20:16.039 --> 00:20:18.519 if they're going to be so hot headed over less 275 00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:21.880 than twenty bucks, maybe they should have just sucked each 276 00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:27.599 other off. Rest in power, Tasha, What what time for 277 00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:32.640 a little sunshine? A transman named Matthew is an MIT 278 00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:37.440 student who lost his family's support and financial support due 279 00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.680 to his transitioning. Matthew is a senior and just a 280 00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:45.720 few months away from graduating, who was unable to register 281 00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:49.519 for his last classes because of some unpaid balances to 282 00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:54.799 the school. His friend and fellow classmate, Irene, organized to 283 00:20:54.880 --> 00:20:59.519 go fundme in honor of Matthew, bringing in ninety thousand 284 00:20:59.599 --> 00:21:04.039 dollars for Matthew's cause. This will allow him to continue 285 00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:08.319 his studies and pay for his living experience near the campus. 286 00:21:09.119 --> 00:21:12.799 I think that's so sweet. A little humanity really goes 287 00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:18.119 a long way. NFL football star Kaylin Saunders and his 288 00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:22.960 dancer brother Cameron launched a first of its kind football 289 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:29.400 camp designed specifically for LGBTQ youth. Now that's kind of cool. 290 00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:31.960 When I was a kid, I would have been sign 291 00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:37.559 me up. And lastly, Amsterdam will host World Pride this 292 00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:42.000 year July twenty fifth through August eighth. And that's about 293 00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:45.839 all the sunshine we have this week. But wait, let's 294 00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:49.559 leave with a joke. What do you call fifty lesbians 295 00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:54.720 and fifty government employees in one room? One hundred people 296 00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:59.359 that don't do dick. Don't forget. I'm taking next week 297 00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:01.920 off for or maybe a miniso if I get a 298 00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:05.680 chance to get one together. I love you guys. You 299 00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:10.440 matter so much. Remember it's not a crime to be 300 00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:14.359 gay or to live your truth unless you're a murderer.
