Speaker 1: Happy Friday Eve to everybody.
Speaker 4: Hope you're having a decent day so far as I
Speaker 4: always trying to make it a good day if it isn't.
Speaker 4: Right now, coming up fifty five KRCY Morning Shows seven thirty,
Speaker 4: mayoral candidate Corey Bowman is going to return to the studio.
Speaker 4: We'll be talking about, of course violence in downtown Cincinnati,
Speaker 4: among other topics. So matter of a press conference ches
Speaker 4: today with mayor. Have to have pro bowl and get
Speaker 4: some information on that here momentarily, of course it being Thursday,
Speaker 4: Slash Friday E. We hear from iHeart Media Aviation expert
Speaker 4: Jay Rattliffe eight thirty for Jay more changes at Southwest Airline.
Speaker 4: Now they're customer of size policy. Of size policy, something
Speaker 4: suggests that has to do with weight. We'll find out
Speaker 4: with Jay Ratliffe, pilot in the United Airlines refusing to
Speaker 4: fly after passengers smoke weed on the plane before departure.
Speaker 4: Wow exercising poor judgment, that Spirit Airlines warning of an
Speaker 4: uncertain future without an influx of cash, Southwest Airlines apologizing
Speaker 4: for leaving behind two passengers who were blind, and Emirates
Speaker 4: prepares to restrict the use of power charging devices aboard
Speaker 4: their flights. Of course, he's brought up the idea there's
Speaker 4: lithium ion batteries on fire in cabins many, many times.
Speaker 1: That's frightening. You know.
Speaker 4: It's even more frightening is the idea that someone may
Speaker 4: have stowed one of those lithium ion battery products project
Speaker 4: or products in the stowaway like with your with your
Speaker 4: stowed baggage, so it's in a baggage compartment below. You
Speaker 4: can't do that, it's against the rules. But you know
Speaker 4: that has to happen from time to time, and if
Speaker 4: a fire breaks out in the baggage area, you got
Speaker 4: a real problem on your hands. Anyway, frightening stuff that
Speaker 4: those lithium ion batteries are obviously everywhere. Ah plus hub delays.
Speaker 4: We always close out with hub blaze Tomorrow fifty five
Speaker 4: Caresey Morning showed Tech Fridday with Dave Hatter and the
Speaker 4: return of Sarah Herringer. Of course, Sarah's widow lost her
Speaker 4: husband in their apartment and over the Rhine because someone
Speaker 4: kicked the door and stabbed her husband to death. Stabbed
Speaker 4: into death in their apartment. And a guy that should
Speaker 4: have been known to law enforcement for having cut off
Speaker 4: his ankle monitor since he was out with an ankle monitor,
Speaker 4: having prior previously been released from prison several months previous
Speaker 4: or prior to the stabbing. He's got a lot of
Speaker 4: people angry. Of course, that kind of kicked off more
Speaker 4: attention in downtown Cincinnati and the violence that's down there,
Speaker 4: and that was the subject matter of yesterday's press conference.
Speaker 4: Addressing public safety concerns mayor have to have. Purval spoke
Speaker 4: to reporters at City Hall, but the city's approach to
Speaker 4: public safety, emphasizing that the city and the urban cor
Speaker 4: are safe, but pointing out the public perception is that
Speaker 4: it's not safe. Too many people perceive downtown and over
Speaker 4: the Rhine is unsafe, and that's very important, he said. True,
Speaker 4: he said, since the Simplicity implemented a plan to combat
Speaker 4: crime in response to trends. Concerning trends as Quinnlan Bentley
Speaker 4: of the Enquiry describes it, officials have seen a stabilization
Speaker 4: in crime and in some areas a significant decrease his words,
Speaker 4: significant decrease. The numbers don't really bear that out. Now,
Speaker 4: that's all these new initiatives that he cited, saying that
Speaker 4: you know, helping deal with with crime in downtown CINCINNTI
Speaker 4: all kicked in after Sarah Herringer's loss after her husband
Speaker 4: Patrick was stabbed to death in their home and over
Speaker 4: the rhine. But according to enquire reporting month of a
Speaker 4: month downtown Cincinnati month over month, mind you saw a
Speaker 4: twenty six percent reduction in serious violent crime and property crime. However,
Speaker 4: yearly totals, if you look at the fiscal year, yearly
Speaker 4: totals show a forty eight percent increase. So while in
Speaker 4: the most previous month we may have had a decrease,
Speaker 4: perhaps mayor have to have per of all the police
Speaker 4: department's crime initiatives have borne fruit a little bit, let's
Speaker 4: wait and find out overall and long term. But generally speaking,
Speaker 4: compared from last year to this year, we got a
Speaker 4: forty eight percent increase in serious violent crime. So the
Speaker 4: numbers really aren't down, are they? Over the Rhine saw
Speaker 4: a four percent serious violent crime increase and property crime
Speaker 4: increase month over month. So pulling out over the line
Speaker 4: from the general downtown statistics, it's up in over the
Speaker 4: Rhine from ninety four to ninety eight expense offenses. And
Speaker 4: then if you look at a year over year, over
Speaker 4: the Rhine saw a thirty eight percent increase in violent
Speaker 4: and property crime. So how do you reconcile those numbers
Speaker 4: with what I have to have? Pro Boll is saying
Speaker 4: out loud, the violent crime is down. I guess it
Speaker 4: just depends on which number you're looking at. But insofar
Speaker 4: as over the Rhine is concerned, there aren't numbers that
Speaker 4: support that conclusion.
Speaker 1: Pro Boll claim.
Speaker 4: The city has now been prioritizing police visibility enforcing street
Speaker 4: level crimes. Here are the four things that I was
Speaker 4: able to identify from the press conference that they've done.
Speaker 4: Roving task Force, which is described as a mix of
Speaker 4: undercover and uniforms since ani police officers focusing on quote
Speaker 4: quality of life crimes close quote like drug use, gambling,
Speaker 4: and traffic issues. Number two deployed a daily walking patrol
Speaker 4: or patrols to increase police visibility in high traffic areas
Speaker 4: during event hours evening hours. Rather that's usually when the
Speaker 4: crime occurs, so you can't argue that that's not valuable
Speaker 4: walking patrol since they please. Civil Disturbance Response Team and
Speaker 4: SWAT teams are patrolling apparently at the Bank's Fourth Street
Speaker 4: all night and in the early morning all week conducting
Speaker 4: patrols of Fountain Square and on Main Street during weekend nights,
Speaker 4: which I would say is a positive thing. And of
Speaker 4: course the curfew is now in effect, so eleven pm
Speaker 4: curfew for miners and as well as a special extended
Speaker 4: curfew district which includes downtown and over the Rhine, which
Speaker 4: goes into effect at nine pm. So they apparently started
Speaker 4: enforcing this or will start enforcing it tomorrow. Pointing out
Speaker 4: purvol did non law enforcement are going to be working
Speaker 4: with children to ensure they're complying with the curfew and
Speaker 4: if that doesn't work, police then have to get involved.
Speaker 4: Apparently they've been trained to ask, tell, and finally command
Speaker 4: that kids comply with the curfew. Children found breaking the
Speaker 4: curfew during weekends and be taking the Seven Hills neighborhood
Speaker 4: house in the West End. Lighthouse Youth Services for those
Speaker 4: experiencing homelessness. So four items on the agena and I fine,
Speaker 4: I don't. You can't fault those four particular out. Can
Speaker 4: we call them improvements to the extent they weren't doing that?
Speaker 4: We have to scratch our head and wonder Wait a second.
Speaker 4: Obviously been dealing with crime for a long time. People
Speaker 4: who live down there are painfully aware of the crime.
Speaker 4: How come there weren't, for example, daily walking patrols. How
Speaker 4: come these deployments weren't done previously? How come since we
Speaker 4: had a curfew it wasn't being enforced, So actual law
Speaker 4: enforcement can work. Oh, look, DC, it's working since the
Speaker 4: FED showed up to help the DC police, which the
Speaker 4: District Columbia's Police department chief is embracing. It was a
Speaker 4: great thing. Thank god. They've arrested, arrested more than one
Speaker 4: hundred folks in Washington, d C. In the last like
Speaker 4: day and a half two days. So more police, more patrolling,
Speaker 4: more interaction with the population, you get the more arrests,
Speaker 4: and of course maybe the perception then with more arrests
Speaker 4: that the community is in fact safe. Look, police are
Speaker 4: doing their job. Wonderful five three, seven, four, nine fifty
Speaker 4: five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three talk pound
Speaker 4: five fifty on AT and T phone Tanyo Rourco at
Speaker 4: CPO went around in interviewing folks over and Over the
Speaker 4: Rhine and spoke with one individual and then took that
Speaker 4: individual's concerns of the mayor. We'll see what the mayor
Speaker 4: had to say. Interviewing Carolyn Martinez, apparently Over the Rhine
Speaker 4: resident for twelve years, and she says crime the neighborhood
Speaker 4: is increasing. That just drives me crazy that they act
Speaker 4: like the perception is wrong. She said, when you live
Speaker 4: here and you're seeing it happen, it's not just your perception,
Speaker 4: it's reality, Echoing the sentiments of many people who live
Speaker 4: in Over the Rhine and elsewhere in downtown Cincinnati. She
Speaker 4: describes seeing more vagrancy, public in decency, and drug dealing
Speaker 4: where she lives. She said her friends reluctant to visit
Speaker 4: her downtown. She no longer feels comfortable walking alone common fiend.
Speaker 4: She pointed out that nearby restaurants that were once bustling
Speaker 4: are now empty. So they brought these concerns the mayor
Speaker 4: A have to have provol quote, I say, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: I take public safety very seriously. Public safety is my responsibility.
Speaker 4: No one else is in the city of Cincinnati, all right,
Speaker 4: the buck stops with the mayor, he went on, And
Speaker 4: it's not good enough if our residents who have lived
Speaker 4: in Over the Rhine in downtown do not feel safe,
Speaker 4: which is why we're continuing to double down on these interventions.
Speaker 4: For similarly, the interventions I just broke down this four
Speaker 4: areas to make sure that the woman you spoke to
Speaker 4: and all people both residents and tourists coming downtown see
Speaker 4: that safety and feel that safety.
Speaker 1: Close quote.
Speaker 4: All right, I'm not sure that really mounts too much,
Speaker 4: but I'm willing to embrace the things that have been
Speaker 4: done so far. There may be more that can be done,
Speaker 4: and I've of course realized, with about two hundred fewer
Speaker 4: officers than we should have on the street, it's a
Speaker 4: little difficult to accomplish that goal of roving patrols and
Speaker 4: constant police presence. That's a longer term problem, and they
Speaker 4: are working on.
Speaker 1: That as well. With lateral hires.
Speaker 4: I know they were only given two million dollars to
Speaker 4: do a bunch of different things. Plus lateral hires probably
Speaker 4: could use a lot more money and fuse of that.
Speaker 4: We heard from Ken Kober and Dan Hills on that
Speaker 4: earlier in the week. So maybe you've got solutions. I
Speaker 4: don't know, but I still go back to the broader problem.
Speaker 4: The biggest problem is the breakdown of society and what
Speaker 4: leads people to commit such horrific acts of violence. Five
Speaker 4: sixteen fifty five KRC, the Talk Station. Feel free to
Speaker 4: call me back after these brief words.
Speaker 1: This is fifty five KRC, an iHeartRadio station. Join your
Speaker 1: red swimming.
Speaker 4: Just shy of five to twenty at fifty five KRC.
Speaker 4: Detorganization gotta go to a load of phones. Feel free
Speaker 4: to line up with the phones. I'd love to hear
Speaker 4: from you. Five one, three, seven, four nine fifty eight
Speaker 4: hundred and eighty two three Talk Jay, Welcome back to
Speaker 4: the show.
Speaker 1: Hey, good morning, Brian.
Speaker 5: Hey to note on your comments about the the corrective
Speaker 5: actions that they're putting in place, like we're going to
Speaker 5: go do the basic policing and that should have been done.
Speaker 5: This goes back to the whole idea of well, what
Speaker 5: was the root cause of how did we get here?
Speaker 5: Because if we don't really do that digging and if
Speaker 5: we don't really do the leg work to say, oh,
Speaker 5: what is it over the of the course of the
Speaker 5: past five, six, eight years of how did we get here?
Speaker 5: We don't really figure that out. Then this is just
Speaker 5: going to be a patch.
Speaker 4: Isn't the answer going to wasn't the answer to that question?
Speaker 4: That was the post George Floyd police are all races
Speaker 4: defund the police movement that led to all this.
Speaker 5: I sure, it's think so I think you just got
Speaker 5: an A plus on that.
Speaker 4: Well, and look at all yeah, look at all the
Speaker 4: other cities who did it that went down that road,
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, yes, the Portland's, the Seattle's, Los Angeles,
Speaker 4: San Francisco, New York. I mean when you know, you
Speaker 4: go back to the you know, fifteen years ago New
Speaker 4: York's active policing, where they would you know, interrupt people
Speaker 4: and you know, do do pat on searches looking for
Speaker 4: weapons and things like that. Now, you know, me, the
Speaker 4: civil libertarian that I am, might find some argument that
Speaker 4: that might not be correct. But crime was really really down,
Speaker 4: But that created member police interaction with members of the community.
Speaker 4: We can't arrest someone for selling loose cigarettes on the street.
Speaker 4: That might evolve into a beatdown or something, so they
Speaker 4: quit actively policing neighborhoods anymore, reducing the amount of interaction
Speaker 4: between police and the citizenry so there wouldn't be these interactions.
Speaker 4: And then of course, if there's no police presence and
Speaker 4: they're told not to do their job effectively because it's
Speaker 4: going to be perceived to be racist, then things collapse.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you absolutely nailed it, and I think
Speaker 5: that we need to now is the time for the conservatives.
Speaker 5: I won't say Republicans because that'll be a total waste
Speaker 5: of time, but for the conservatives to point out that
Speaker 5: after your your five years experiment, your grand experiment, with
Speaker 5: your George Soros funded in law enforcement and in the
Speaker 5: DA's and and everybody else judges, here's what you get people.
Speaker 5: And and unfortunately, I think too many times we missed
Speaker 5: this opportunity. And this is what Rush Limbaugh was so
Speaker 5: good at and I think you're also very good at this.
Speaker 5: But I think we've got to keep right now, keep
Speaker 5: keep beating that drownd to tell the folks in the
Speaker 5: inner city, is this what you wanted? Because you're absolutely right.
Speaker 5: It goes back to B. L. M and George Floyd
Speaker 5: and I having to remember it got so bad that
Speaker 5: I remember that. Remember the Reds were like taking a
Speaker 5: knee when the when the national answer, Joey Vado was
Speaker 5: like apologizing for his white privilege and that here we are, here,
Speaker 5: we are so defund the police, rethink the police. Do
Speaker 5: we really need cops or can we just get civic
Speaker 5: what do they call them? We don't need cops. We
Speaker 5: just need people out there, you know, put there, you go, there,
Speaker 5: you go. H They ought to do a good job. Well,
Speaker 5: how how did that work out? And this this was
Speaker 5: the result of the that grand experiment and aftab Purval
Speaker 5: and the Democrats down in Cincinnati. I'm never going to
Speaker 5: connect the dots, uh, because their funding is coming in
Speaker 5: from from George Soros and this is the this is
Speaker 5: the platform.
Speaker 1: Of your Democrat party.
Speaker 6: So I'm going to say it a hat tip to Tom.
Speaker 6: Don't vote Democrat off to Tom.
Speaker 4: Appreciate that, Jay, I really do. But I mean, isn't
Speaker 4: the It didn't the mayor and the press conference just
Speaker 4: so they just sort of capitulate to the reality that
Speaker 4: the defund the police and get rid of the police.
Speaker 4: Reality is is what is the problem? I mean, roving
Speaker 4: Task Force are being deployed dealing with drug use, gambling,
Speaker 4: traffic offenses, the quality of life crimes. Daily walking patrols
Speaker 4: deployed to increase police visibility and high traffic areas evening hours.
Speaker 4: Notably the Civil Disturbance re Response Team in Swat patrolling
Speaker 4: down on the Banks and Fourth Street at night and
Speaker 4: in the early morning all week the curfew crackdown to
Speaker 4: get the young people off of the streets, taking them
Speaker 4: out of harm's way probably but also keeping them from
Speaker 4: getting involved in roving gangs of young people who are
Speaker 4: committing crimes. Great I mean this is those are obvious
Speaker 4: steps that are a one hundred and eighty degree turned
Speaker 4: from the whole. Defund get rid of the police, reduce
Speaker 4: you know, police interaction with the public kind of stuff. So,
Speaker 4: while not out loud acknowledging it, I think you can
Speaker 4: see this unfold in you know, cities across this country
Speaker 4: of ours. They realize this great grand experiment has resulted
Speaker 4: in chaos and people feeling insecure in their own neighborhoods,
Speaker 4: people concerned about walking around. Why because they see it
Speaker 4: every day. Five fifty five K see the talk station five.

Speaker 4: don't forget the Big Picture with Jack Atherton, yesterday's celebrating
Speaker 4: private industry. Tom, Welcome to the morning show. Happy Friday, e,
Speaker 4: my friend.
Speaker 6: Hi, good morning, and thanks for the setup. Jay, appreciate it.
Speaker 6: I've a I've checked the extended forecast and I do
Speaker 6: not see a freeze warning any type toom. So I'm
Speaker 6: I'm keeping my eye out for it. That's kind of
Speaker 6: my target. Look looking forward to that first freeze warning. Yeah,
Speaker 6: so it's it's the heat. It's just it's making me delirious.
Speaker 4: Well, I suspect doing work on the convention Center, you
Speaker 4: you are not in air conditioned space during your work hours.
Speaker 6: I think there's some air circulating, but no, I I
Speaker 6: got to change the shirt like three times a day
Speaker 6: down there. I said, it's miserable. So plus of what
Speaker 6: I'm doing, I'm all the way up on the underside
Speaker 6: of the roof deck, so it's really hot up there.
Speaker 6: So anyway, the only reason the the Democrats. And I
Speaker 6: didn't realize this, but I think technically, uh, they're the
Speaker 6: city council is nonpartisan, but we all we all know,
Speaker 6: like they're not listed as Democrats officially, Is that correct?
Speaker 4: No, they're they run as a party affiliated folks. They
Speaker 4: get endorsed by the Democrats or Republicans as the case maybeing.
Speaker 4: That's you know, you get the blue ticket, the blue
Speaker 4: slip that people blindly follow, which is why you end
Speaker 4: up having this city run by Democrats here after year.
Speaker 6: Right, Well, yeah, that's true, and I think the only
Speaker 6: reason that they are they are acknowledging stuff now and willing.
Speaker 6: I mean, they have nowhere to hide now. It's it's
Speaker 6: very obvious enough people are noticing that these these democrat
Speaker 6: run cities are going to hell and crime is taken over,
Speaker 6: and they don't really have a choice but to do
Speaker 6: something about it. Right now, they're acting like, oh, we're
Speaker 6: going to swoop in and we're going to say the
Speaker 6: day Now, you're the one who wrecked it. You're the
Speaker 6: one who broke it, so we need other people. So
Speaker 6: you're you're Corey Bowman's your Christopher Smytherman and the light
Speaker 6: to come in and fix your screw up because your
Speaker 6: stupid ideas. I mean, anyone who thinks that we're gonna
Speaker 6: we're just gonna back off and we're gonna appeal to
Speaker 6: the to the better side of people, and oh they'll
Speaker 6: be fine. We'll we'll just give them stuff and they'll
Speaker 6: be just so thankful for what we give them and
Speaker 6: let them have and and give them their space. They'll
Speaker 6: be good. No, No, they're not. I mean, people are
Speaker 6: human beings and if they have the opportunity to screw around,
Speaker 6: too big of a majority of people will do that,
Speaker 6: and you're not gonna stop them by being nice to them.
Speaker 6: You have to have a a something in place to
Speaker 6: show them that their consequences for your behavior. You're not
Speaker 6: going past this point, You're not okay doing that. That
Speaker 6: has to be there. When that got lifted for all
Speaker 6: the stupid reasons that got lifted, what of course, this
Speaker 6: is what happened. We all saw it, and now because
Speaker 6: enough people are seeing it, they oh, well, now we
Speaker 6: got to make sure we keep our jobs. So we
Speaker 6: got to act like we're doing something. They're not doing anything.
Speaker 6: Nothing they're gonna do is gonna work because in the
Speaker 6: end they're all still liberal Democrats. So as jaysaid, don't
Speaker 6: vote Democrat.
Speaker 1: Have a great day, Brian, you too, Tom, could hear
Speaker 1: it from you? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean when your own base, when a you know,
Speaker 4: a good chunk of your own political party starts to
Speaker 4: feel like their neighborhood isn't safe and wants something done
Speaker 4: about it, and you can't cling to that. Defund police,
Speaker 4: anti police police are all institutionally bad of a position.
Speaker 4: You've got to go the opposite direction to start putting
Speaker 4: patrols in those neighborhoods. So those Democrats, if they're Democrats, Republicans, independence, communists,
Speaker 4: I don't care. Everyone probably overall, wants to live in
Speaker 4: a safe neighborhood and bring about safety. Quite often you
Speaker 4: need a police presence to do it. And I can
Speaker 4: draw a parallel to this with the with with with
Speaker 4: the UH the sanctuary cities part right when the when
Speaker 4: the when the borders were wide, the hell opened and
Speaker 4: you saw all of these tens of thousands of illegal
Speaker 4: immigrants descend upon New York City, in Chicago, Los Angeles,
Speaker 4: San Francisco. It created a problem for those very left
Speaker 4: bleaning communities. People would come out the town halls and
Speaker 4: scream about how all the resources are being diverted to
Speaker 4: the illegal immigrant population. Would that have happened if the
Speaker 4: power to the elected officials didn't declare their area a
Speaker 4: sanctuary city.
Speaker 1: Probably not.
Speaker 4: They would have worked with ice and deported them out
Speaker 4: of the country. End the story, problem solved. Notice that's
Speaker 4: the direction the Trump administration is going, saving those cities
Speaker 4: from themselves. Oh, look, violence inherent in the system. Since
Speaker 4: a police departments had a woman injured in a shooting
Speaker 4: happened in Queensgate, sixth Street and Lynn Street about twenty
Speaker 4: minutes after eight last night, police dispatch of the area
Speaker 4: report of a person shot. They got there, they found
Speaker 4: a woman with a gunshot wounded the back, suffering non
Speaker 4: life threatening injuries. Suspect believed to be a male driving
Speaker 4: a black vehicle. Well, we got that narrowed down, don't we. Joe, Joe,
Speaker 4: get out there. See if you can find a guide
Speaker 4: having a black car. Well, it's a vehicle, so I
Speaker 4: guess it literally could be anything, be a truck, a
Speaker 4: semi trailer, a golf cart, a guy in a vehicle.
Speaker 4: Let us see here. One a guy's arrested in connections
Speaker 4: with that violent downtown brawl on the twenty six Now
Speaker 4: facing additional federal gun charge courted to Dominic Garassi, the
Speaker 4: US attorney for the Sunnen District, Ohio, said, Montez Merriweather,
Speaker 4: thirty four years old, indicted by a federal grand jury
Speaker 4: yesterday for illegally possessing a firearm as a previously convicted felon,
Speaker 4: completely unrelated to the beatdown charge on July twenty sixth,
Speaker 4: So in resting him for the beatdown charge, they got
Speaker 4: him on felony gun possession please searching for the gun.
Speaker 4: Searching for a gun. After a teenage boy shot in
Speaker 4: his hand happened overnight, officers showed up report of a
Speaker 4: shooting the four thousand block of Pallo Street off Rosemont
Speaker 4: Avenue in West Price Hill eight pm on Tuesday evening
Speaker 4: found a sixteen year old boy suffering from what appeared
Speaker 4: to be a self inflicted gunshot wound. Taking to Sin
Speaker 4: Saint Children's Hospital, expected to recover. According to Captain Stephen
Speaker 4: Bauer interview by Fox nineteen, the shooting is being investigated
Speaker 4: and self inflicted. The firearm was not recovered, but casings
Speaker 4: were recovered at the scene. Got any information about it?

Speaker 4: point thirty Meyriw candidate Corey Bowman will get his reaction
Speaker 4: to pair of All's comments yesterday and the direction he
Speaker 4: might take the city if he became mayor over to
Speaker 4: the stack of stupid. It looks like a walk away
Speaker 4: story to me. Alabama woman accused of setting her ex
Speaker 4: boyfriend's car on fire because he broke up with her.
Speaker 4: Video shows Kimberly Valante Avillaz putting into a park, pulling
Speaker 4: into a parking lot, going up to her ex boyfriend's
Speaker 4: car with a paper that was on fire. Then she
Speaker 4: got back in her car left. Minutes later, white smoke
Speaker 4: started building out of the car. About six minutes go
Speaker 4: by before someone notices it. Man pulled up, got out
Speaker 4: of his truck to see what was going on before
Speaker 4: leaving to get help, and then a few minutes later
Speaker 4: a man walked out with a fire extinguisher cord to
Speaker 4: the police. Flante Avileez mad at her boyfriend because he
Speaker 4: broke up with her, so she was getting a revenge.
Speaker 4: Apparently described as on the run for a few weeks,
Speaker 4: but finally arrested when she got back to try to
Speaker 4: work things out with her ex boyfriend.
Speaker 1: Just walk away.
Speaker 4: Quite often, the only choice. Italian police have seized thousands
Speaker 4: of pounds worth of goods from a food festival, this
Speaker 4: after a woman died eating contaminated guacamole. Thirty eight year
Speaker 4: old Roverta Pizales died of bachulism poisoning last Friday after
Speaker 4: eating guacamole from a stand at Fiesta Latina to a
Speaker 4: festival in Cagliari, Sardinia. Eight other festival goers also hospitalized,
Speaker 4: including a eleven year old boy who's still in intensive care
Speaker 4: after eating the guacamole filled taco. Two others died from
Speaker 4: contaminated sandwiches unrelated to the festival. Amid the bachulism outbreak
Speaker 4: in Italy, public health officials rated the South American Festivals
Speaker 4: headquarters and discovered approximately twenty five thousand I guess that's
Speaker 4: lira or pounds or a hell who cares a lot
Speaker 4: of right tomato paste flour that wasn't stored properly. Despite
Speaker 4: seizing portions of avocado pulp the vestival itself, officers did
Speaker 4: not find any more contaminated guawk in their raid. They've
Speaker 4: named a guy. Businessman Gustavo Vincente, owns the kiosk where
Speaker 4: the guacamole was allegedly served. He's a suspect in Pizzali's death,
Speaker 4: his lawyers said, have been sent a deeply affected by
Speaker 4: what happened, regardless of any allegations of guilt that have
Speaker 4: yet to be proven. We maintained that all the products
Speaker 4: used were sealed, came from controlled supply chain and purchased
Speaker 4: through large scale retailers. They were stored correctly. He claimed.
Speaker 4: There was no way to predict what happened, all right.
Speaker 4: It's also confirmed that other areas of Italy, two people
Speaker 4: confirmed dead after eating broccoli and sausage sandwiches from an
Speaker 4: Italian food truck. Botulism in both of those cases as well.
Speaker 4: I know, and you know you don't know that it's
Speaker 4: got botulism in it. Think how much faith you put
Speaker 4: into people who prepare your food, and you know, just
Speaker 4: a reminder, my advice when you're at a restaurant is
Speaker 4: to treat the employees with kindness and respect, because if
Speaker 4: you're that guy and you get all lippy with someone
Speaker 4: who's going to be preparing your food, you may not
Speaker 4: fully appreciate the contents of the food when it's finally
Speaker 4: delivered to you. That may or may not have happened
Speaker 4: during just period of time at Burger King because he
Speaker 4: observed a lot of other employee behavior. Joe Stecker would
Speaker 4: never engage that type of behavior to Jerk's interacting with
Speaker 4: him back in the day when he was working at
Speaker 4: Burger King, but others at the restaurant might have just
Speaker 4: heard that from a little berg. Chinese man has pleaded
Speaker 4: guilty in US District court to exporting around eight hundred
Speaker 4: and fifty protected turtles wrapped in socks and falsely labeled
Speaker 4: as toys. According to the US Department testing that between
Speaker 4: August the twenty three and November twenty four, We kwang
Speaker 4: Lin exported Honk to Hong Kong more than two hundred
Speaker 4: parcels containing the turtles boxes packed with the turtles labeled
Speaker 4: containing plastic animal toys. Lynn primarily shipped the Eastern box
Speaker 4: turtles and three toed box turtles, both species native of
Speaker 4: the United States and prized by some pet owners some
Speaker 4: people who like to collect turtles. Thoughties estimated that the
Speaker 4: seas turtles had a combined market value of one point
Speaker 4: four million dollars. Called the animals and caught animals were
Speaker 4: intercepted by law enforcement during one border inspections. Both species
Speaker 4: smoking in large quantities in the nineties protected by the
Speaker 4: Convention on International Trade and Endangered Species of Wild Fauna
Speaker 4: and Flora. That's a big name. There's a newsletter associated
Speaker 4: with that act Joe.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 4: Eastern box turtle also deemed vulnerable by the International Union
Speaker 4: for Conservation of Nature.
Speaker 1: There's one of those as well.
Speaker 4: Beyond the turtles, Lynn also exported eleven other parcels filled
Speaker 4: with reptiles, including venomous snakes. Sentence on set to be

Speaker 4: Welcome back, good.
Speaker 3: Morning, and come in peace, love everybody, and there's nothing
Speaker 3: you can do about it. Well, Brian, we see the pendulum.
Speaker 3: Oh let me say this part now with spiritual beings
Speaker 3: going through human experience, and one of the experience is
Speaker 3: we see this pendlum again to swing back the other way.
Speaker 3: As far as police preection, clearly now it's a balancing act,
Speaker 3: but as in this human experience, it'll probably go too far.
Speaker 3: And I hope we don't get back to beating down
Speaker 3: people for selling cigarettes on the side walk great, you
Speaker 3: know there's a certain way to handle that. I hope
Speaker 3: we don't get back to keeping your knee on them
Speaker 3: on a crackhead neck for almost nine minutes until the
Speaker 3: person die. Now, what caused it? A drugs in the
Speaker 3: system could have caused it, but he was up and
Speaker 3: living afford the knat, so we gotta look at it.
Speaker 3: We got to balance it out. It's a very tedious scale.
Speaker 3: You can overwel it either way, but I think it's
Speaker 3: begin to put swing the other way. A lot of
Speaker 3: people are coming out of denial. A lot of people
Speaker 3: have tried programs, but they got to be intertwined together,
Speaker 3: not one of the other one.
Speaker 1: I agree with you. It's a balancing act.
Speaker 3: Yeah, at thirty three and a third that's in the middle.
Speaker 3: We we gotta keep, you know, pushing that narrative. So
Speaker 3: we know, we got the thirty three on third on
Speaker 3: both sides of the other one. Whether it's hate, whether
Speaker 3: it's racism, it's fear. See all those human traits, and
Speaker 3: fear is a strong affids act. Oh yes, racism is
Speaker 3: a strong aphids act. Now, this thing with the brawl
Speaker 3: beat down that was strictly driven by political people trying
Speaker 3: to get political points off of that, people jumping into
Speaker 3: race on that verge of that being typed up. It's
Speaker 3: real and we're looking at it, you know, but we
Speaker 3: got opportunity to bounce this thing out, but it goes
Speaker 3: back centrist Well.
Speaker 4: No, true, Yeah, Well that's human nature, as you point out.
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, since the Dawn of mantonme Cain
Speaker 4: slew Able, you know, and Dwelton the land of not
Speaker 4: east of Eden. I mean he killed his own brother,
Speaker 4: dawn of mankind, if you want to go with a
Speaker 4: parable like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Since the beginning, people have been fighting it out over
Speaker 4: personal a grievances and you know, differences of opinion. Racism
Speaker 4: feeds it. There's a lot of things that feed it.
Speaker 4: One's religion feeds it, territorial disputes. There's always something we're
Speaker 4: fighting about. But hopefully you're right, those cooler heads, perhaps
Speaker 4: in the middle, will prevail and we'll come up with
Speaker 4: the best possible solution and learn from our mistakes. Like
Speaker 4: defunding police. Pretty bad way to go completely. Is there
Speaker 4: a middle path? Probably appreciated James as always. Florida man
Speaker 4: naked as his tradition. Sandford, Florida man a man arrested
Speaker 4: after a mom spotted a naked and touching himself in
Speaker 4: her yard while she was feeding her five month old baby,
Speaker 4: maybe a hockey player Joe. Officers called her the intersection
Speaker 4: of livea Boulevard and disabled Palm Court. Sunday, the woman
Speaker 4: feeding her five month old baby saw Robin Carr, forty four,
Speaker 4: walking in the backyard looking into windows. Told police he
Speaker 4: was naked, and touching himself inappropriately while watching her.
Speaker 1: What creepy much?
Speaker 4: She screamed her boyfriend Chase Carr, before bringing him to
Speaker 4: the ground a nearby intersection. When questioned by police, car
Speaker 4: told officers he was just looking for a bathroom and said,
Speaker 4: in his words, he would never do it again, and
Speaker 4: it was an accident.
Speaker 1: Whatever.
Speaker 4: Charged with loudonlessivious behavior. Yeah, you were accidentally pleasuring yourself
Speaker 4: while staring at a woman in her backyard. Whoops, I slipped.
Speaker 4: He tripped on his own hand. Let us see real
Speaker 4: quick here. Evangelical pastor in Brazil, Pastor Eduardo Acosta, found
Speaker 4: himself the center of what they describe as a life
Speaker 4: destroying controversy. He was filmed walking near a bar in
Speaker 4: some city wearing nothing but a white shirt, a blue thong,
Speaker 4: and a blonde wig. Social media went viral. He has
Speaker 4: an excuse. Video shows a man, a woman's underwear and
Speaker 4: a wig walking casually through a parking lot next to
Speaker 4: a bar in Urius neighborhood in Giogani wherever. Clip said
Speaker 4: anonymously by a local page that was popular quickly exploded online.
Speaker 1: He's a i guess.
Speaker 4: And religious leader, also described as a gospel singer modest
Speaker 4: online following, not a whole lot of people following him
Speaker 4: on his private anyway, This came in quite embarrassing. He
Speaker 4: claimed he was doing in his own investigation. Whatever this is,
Speaker 4: Bishop Eduardo Acosta and my wife Valikrearia a Costa, we
Speaker 4: are here to share our version of the events that
Speaker 4: are taking place last night. I went to conduct a
Speaker 4: personal investigation of my own and in the wrong way.
Speaker 4: I ended up putting a wig on in shorts. Shorts,
Speaker 4: he says that we're mistaken for a thong, although you
Speaker 4: can see the video looks like a thong to me.
Speaker 4: He said, I really did dress in an inappropriate manner
Speaker 4: in an attempt to locate an address I needed in
Speaker 4: order to serve a summons. He then alleged someone secretly
Speaker 4: filmed him while hiding in the dark later attempted to
Speaker 4: extort him. M I had already told my wife I
Speaker 4: was conducting this investigation. She just didn't know some of
Speaker 4: the details, such as the way I had gone about it.
Speaker 8: Five dang.
Speaker 4: People unloading on his wife were actually having the nerve
Speaker 4: to stand there with him with a distressed look on

Speaker 10: Uh?
Speaker 4: What is the customer of size policy? Jay's gonna explain
Speaker 4: that power free United Airlines refusing to fly after passengers
Speaker 4: smoked weed on the plane before departure. Just cracking me

Speaker 4: about its future unless it gets an influx of cash.
Speaker 4: Southwest Airlines apologizing for leaving pind behind two passengers who
Speaker 4: were blind whoops, and Emirates preparing to restrict the use
Speaker 4: of power charging devices aboard their flights. That plus Hubdlaze.
Speaker 4: That'll start at eight thirty with Jay Ratloff. Jay, Good morning.
Speaker 4: If you're out there, five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty,
Speaker 4: five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to three talk go
Speaker 4: with Tom five fifty if you have an AT and
Speaker 4: T phone. Of course, started out the program talk about
Speaker 4: Mayor I have to have Provols a press conference yesterday
Speaker 4: where he was talking about what steps the measures the
Speaker 4: city has taken to deal with crime, and it all
Speaker 4: seems to have kicked off with the death of Sarah
Speaker 4: Herringer's husband Patrick. Sarah's going to join the program tomorrow.
Speaker 4: She'll return. We had a nice long conversation last week
Speaker 4: with Sarah. I'm bringing her back tomorrow to just get
Speaker 4: her reaction. Perhaps on have to have Provolls well efforts.
Speaker 4: He claims the city's safe, and it's weird because you know,
Speaker 4: the inquiry reporting has n't quoted no, you got to
Speaker 4: you don't believe your eyes and your ears, and we
Speaker 4: have a perception that it's unsafe. But that perception is inaccurate.
Speaker 4: Too many people perceive downtown and OTR as unsafe, and
Speaker 4: that's as very important you said. He claimed there was
Speaker 4: a significant decrease in the well in crime, but as
Speaker 4: the Quire pointed out, that the statistics don't really bear
Speaker 4: that out. Now if you just look month over month,
Speaker 4: as I mentioned last hours, twenty six reduction in serious
Speaker 4: violent crime in downtown Downtown. But however, if you look
Speaker 4: at the year over totals, there's a forty eight percent
Speaker 4: increase in serious violent crime. So question mark, and we
Speaker 4: may be able to give them credit. Were these most
Speaker 4: recent changes to patrolling and these steps that perval and
Speaker 4: Chief Fiji or Sheryl Longer, whoever was involved in formulating
Speaker 4: these different patrolling ideas, are they responsible for the most
Speaker 4: recent month over month reduction? Now, if you got over
Speaker 4: the rhine, they saw a four percent increase in serious
Speaker 4: violent and property crime month over month. So just looking
Speaker 4: at that one small segment of downtown, generally speaking, it's
Speaker 4: still getting worse. And of course Sarah Herringer and her
Speaker 4: late husband Patrick lived in over the Rhine when someone
Speaker 4: broke in their door, kicked their door down and stabbed
Speaker 4: him to death. Her story on that is just it's
Speaker 4: just heartbreaking. Thirty eight percent increase in over the Rhine
Speaker 4: for the year year over year, so a four percent
Speaker 4: increase in violent crime month over month. Ay, thirty eight
Speaker 4: percent year over year. So I don't know where purvol
Speaker 4: is getting his information, but he said out loud into
Speaker 4: your face that no, it's just the perception of crime.
Speaker 4: It's not getting worse, it's getting better, so he announces.
Speaker 4: He mentioned the roving task force dealing with quality of
Speaker 4: right life issues, the deployment of daily walking patrols increase
Speaker 4: their visibility, the civil response or civil disturbance response demon
Speaker 4: swap patrols that are going to be doing, you know,
Speaker 4: working late at night into the early morning hours, walking
Speaker 4: around in places like Fountain Square and Main Street good
Speaker 4: and of course the curfew crackdown which begins I think tomorrow.
Speaker 4: So is that what led to at least one the
Speaker 4: general overall reduction in crime over the last month. Maybe
Speaker 4: maybe now answering some questions, and I appreciate the analysis
Speaker 4: and props to I guess it was.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: WCBO interviewing Carl Lewis, a defense attorney, and Mark pet
Speaker 4: Pete Meyer from Hamilton, former Hamilton County a chief assistant prosecutor,
Speaker 4: talking about the charges that had been levied against those
Speaker 4: who were arrested so far, and why the so called
Speaker 4: Russian guy didn't get charged for the slap down. Each
Speaker 4: of the six suspects indicted on August Day facing two
Speaker 4: counts of aggravator riding, each of them two counts of
Speaker 4: aggravator rid aggravator riding, three counts of assault, three counts
Speaker 4: of folonious assault, and they had all these community activists,
Speaker 4: Cecil Thomas Damon Lynch, you know, some of the members
Speaker 4: of council complaining that there wasn't a felony indictment against
Speaker 4: the guy who issued the slap but pivoting over to
Speaker 4: just the rioting charges. These experts, the defense attorney and
Speaker 4: pitt Meyer, in so far as former Hamilton County is
Speaker 4: chief assistant prosecutor Pete Myers concerned, he goes, you know,
Speaker 4: aggravated riding. He called it very rare and usually would
Speaker 4: not charge folks with aggravated writing because it's a vague charge,
Speaker 4: he said, because all of a sudden a fight breaks
Speaker 4: out and there's four more people involved in a disorderly
Speaker 4: conduct charge, that's one of the elements four or more people.
Speaker 4: If while committing disorderly conduct with four or more people,
Speaker 4: you commit another crime, that's when it pivots over and
Speaker 4: is considered and defined as aggravated rioting.
Speaker 1: He said.
Speaker 4: In this case, it's pretty clear cut that that's what
Speaker 4: they were engaged in. It was a big melee among
Speaker 4: a bunch of people, and I think it was appropriate,
Speaker 4: meaning the charge was appropriately filed. Now, the defense attorney,
Speaker 4: Carl Lewis said, I don't see the rioting. I'd be
Speaker 4: very surprised that they get convictions on that, and noting
Speaker 4: historically they look back at crime statistics since twenty nineteen,
Speaker 4: there were eleven individuals charge with aggravated writing. Of those,
Speaker 4: nine had those charges dismissed or even ignored by the
Speaker 4: grand jury. Lewis said, I've never in my thirty five
Speaker 4: years had to defend anyone on aggravated rioting, So those
Speaker 4: charges may go by the wayside, but you still have
Speaker 4: felonious assault, which Pete Meyer pointed out well. Felonious assault
Speaker 4: is a lot more serious of a crime than aggravated rioting.
Speaker 4: Fair enough, now, in so far as the slapping charge
Speaker 4: is concerned, pete Meyer said, I don't see that the
Speaker 4: person referring to the Russian white guy who slapped the
Speaker 4: black man, I don't see that the person, from what
Speaker 4: I've seen, committed a crime. Assault is causing or attempting
Speaker 4: to cause harm to another person. Felonious assault is causing
Speaker 4: or attempting to cause serious physical harm to the other person.
Speaker 4: He said, So, if I reach out and slap you,
Speaker 4: I'm not intended to harm you, and I don't harm you.
Speaker 4: And if you look at the slap, I think someone
Speaker 4: described it the other day, is the lightest slaps ever
Speaker 4: issued by a human being, and it is pretty modest.
Speaker 4: I mean, he does lay hands on the guy's face,
Speaker 4: but you know his head didn't turn by the force
Speaker 4: of the slap. It's just, you know, he invaded the
Speaker 4: other guy's space. Pete Meyer went on, Basically, I'm taunting you,
Speaker 4: or I'm basically challenging you to a fight, and if
Speaker 4: the fight breaks out, there's a fight going on. So
Speaker 4: I don't see that the person that did that, I
Speaker 4: think he was stupid to do it. But to me,
Speaker 4: I don't see a crime that was committed there. And
Speaker 4: again I'm not working at the County Prosecutor's office anymore,
Speaker 4: but I would not be present. I would not present
Speaker 4: that to a grand jury. I don't see it as
Speaker 4: a crime. Well, there you have it. And in this
Speaker 4: world of soft on crime, this is the kind of
Speaker 4: elephant in the room for all those community activists who
Speaker 4: are claiming this somehow this is an expression of racism
Speaker 4: that the white guy was in charge and the black
Speaker 4: guys are all charged with felonies. Those members of the community,
Speaker 4: aren't they the ones that were running around screaming about
Speaker 4: police reform. You know, let's not prosecute people. We don't
Speaker 4: want to give young people a record. We need to
Speaker 4: defund the police. We need to rethink the police. We
Speaker 4: need fewer involvements with the police, less interaction between the
Speaker 4: police and the citizenry, because that's where the problems tend
Speaker 4: to crop up. We don't need to prosecute these minor offenses. Again,
Speaker 4: why put someone through the criminal justice system and give them,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 1: A scarlet letter.
Speaker 4: Well, don't you think that same group of people would
Speaker 4: be in the room complaining about Connie Pillage prosecuting the
Speaker 4: if the white guy, the Russian guy was a black guy,
Speaker 4: and he had reached out and tapped somebody else in
Speaker 4: the face that way softly, that lightly. It seems like
Speaker 4: my minor dispute. As Pete Meyer said, you know, you're
Speaker 4: you're mixing it up a little bit. But there's not
Speaker 4: a crime in doing that. It doesn't constitute or reach
Speaker 4: the level of criminal activity. And don't you think they
Speaker 4: will be out screaming and yelling about this ridiculous prosecution
Speaker 4: for merely tapping another person on the face. Why are
Speaker 4: you charging that person with a felony? This is outrageous.
Speaker 4: It doesn't rise to that level. Yes, I can hear
Speaker 4: them making that argument. So, you know, going back to Mississippi, James,
Speaker 4: cooler heads need to prevail. Yes, there's tension in the room,
Speaker 4: exacerbated by politics, and of course most notably exascer by
Speaker 4: left exacerbated by left wing politics who well thus have
Speaker 4: been echoing this refrain that the police are inherently racist
Speaker 4: and mean and cruel and vile, and that prosecutors need to,
Speaker 4: you know, take a take a step back when prosecuting crime.
Speaker 4: That's one side of the room, and on the other
Speaker 4: side you got tough on crime folks. But in the
Speaker 4: middle you got somebody who's thoughtfully analyzing what he sees.
Speaker 4: And this is you know, former prosecutor Petemeyer and saying, listen,
Speaker 4: this isn't a crime. Regardless how you feel about the police,
Speaker 4: regardless of how you feel about the prosecutor's office, regardless
Speaker 4: of the political dynamic that's swirling around in here. In
Speaker 4: the final analysis, no reasonable prosecutor would bring charges against
Speaker 4: the Russian guy. Six sixteen. They five kre Se Detalk

Speaker 4: Six fifty five KRCD Talk Station Rick says would not

Speaker 4: under the Loaye. Assault I think is the apprehension of
Speaker 4: getting hit and battery's actual physical contact.
Speaker 1: I think it.
Speaker 4: Would under the circumstances, it'll just qualify as like a
Speaker 4: minor misdemeanor, which is a handslap. That's not what the
Speaker 4: quote unquote community leader are demanding. They want a felony
Speaker 4: charge against that guy, which again I'm looking at Pete
Speaker 4: Meyer's analysis, which I think is a thoughtful informed analysis.
Speaker 4: It doesn't reach the level of fulonious assault, which requires
Speaker 4: attempting to cause serious physical harm or actually causing it.
Speaker 4: This is far from that. So at best you're going
Speaker 4: to get a misdemeanor. And in this world of light
Speaker 4: prosecutions and judges who won't even send murderers or won't
Speaker 4: even put murderers on a high bond, this is not
Speaker 4: something that would normally be prosecuted. So let's see what
Speaker 4: Bobby's got this morning. Bobby, thanks for calling this morning.
Speaker 4: Welcome to the Morning Show, Bobby, start all over again.
Speaker 1: Go ahead.
Speaker 11: Oh okay, good morning, my friend. Happy Thursday too.
Speaker 12: You.
Speaker 11: I got a few things I'd like to say about
Speaker 11: the mayor and his progressive crew down there. Yeah, they
Speaker 11: just pander to the voting block. Doesn't matter what it is.
Speaker 11: They're going to pander to the voting block. And we
Speaker 11: all know what they voting block.
Speaker 3: He is.
Speaker 11: Okay, Now, I'm uncles say things won't change a little
Speaker 11: bit down there with their maneuvering they're doing, But the
Speaker 11: numbers in the status will not. The only thing that's
Speaker 11: truly going to change is the color of the lipstick
Speaker 11: on the pig.
Speaker 4: Well, let me ask you this. The voting block that
Speaker 4: you believe they're pandering to is what particular voting block
Speaker 4: What is that particular voting block's attitude toward the police
Speaker 4: and law enforcement.
Speaker 11: Which evident in the last five years.
Speaker 1: What it is they.
Speaker 4: Defunding the police, anti police rhetoric or police Okay, that
Speaker 4: voting block you're referring to might be a very loud
Speaker 4: voting block, and they might have had some success over
Speaker 4: the past several years in the post George Floyd world
Speaker 4: at getting people to start embracing this defund the police attitude.
Speaker 4: But what has it brought them? It's brought them chaos
Speaker 4: and bedlam and high crime neighborhoods and homelessness problems and
Speaker 4: all kinds of drug problems, people injecting drugs on the street,
Speaker 4: neighborhoods falling apart. Which has done what It has eroded
Speaker 4: that small segment of the very loud voting block that
Speaker 4: you're referring to to an even smaller segment. People of
Speaker 4: all political stripes are pissed off that their neighborhoods are
Speaker 4: falling apart. That's why Parval is going in the opposite direction.
Speaker 4: Rather than get rid of police and take fewer of
Speaker 4: them and put few of them on the street, he
Speaker 4: is now reversing. So he's not really pandering to the
Speaker 4: anti police voting block. He's going in the other direction.
Speaker 4: It's an acknowledgment that we need more police on the street.
Speaker 4: That's what he has done by way of reform. It's
Speaker 4: what he announced yesterday. More people on the street, more patrols.
Speaker 11: So well, you got I look at it this way,
Speaker 11: and if you go back the last five years, we've
Speaker 11: had a twenty to twenty five percent loss of police force. Yeah, correct,
Speaker 11: where's the money at that they've saved?
Speaker 1: Pey don't care paying for the street.
Speaker 11: The money that they saved sixty or sixty percent of
Speaker 11: their budget is for the services to the people. Where's
Speaker 11: the extra money? They say that the police department should
Speaker 11: have had put it in a separate account.
Speaker 1: Do something.
Speaker 11: They won't want to do anything because they're they're every
Speaker 11: time they have a D next to their name in Cincinnati,
Speaker 11: they get elected, look at your first congressional dias.
Speaker 4: Oh no, that goes without saying. That goes without saying
Speaker 4: because the people aren't thoughtful voters. We got all that.
Speaker 4: They're not weed dwellers. They don't pay attention to what's
Speaker 4: going on and the realities of who they're voting for.
Speaker 4: I mean again, that's why we keep saying. You know,
Speaker 4: definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and
Speaker 4: over repeatedly expecting a different result. You want tough on crime,
Speaker 4: politicians don't vote for the Democrats. They maybe be holding
Speaker 4: to that small, loud, squeaky wheel wing of their party party,
Speaker 4: which is eroding. I mean, look at the National Democratic
Speaker 4: Party statistics. Democrats in their own party have very very
Speaker 4: very little confidence low confidence in the Democratic platform. You think, maybe,
Speaker 4: just maybe, the reason the polling numbers are so low
Speaker 4: among Democrats and their perception of their own party is
Speaker 4: because they embrace something stupid like getting rid of law enforcement,
Speaker 4: causing neighborhoods to deteriorate. Maybe because they embrace sanctuary city
Speaker 4: policies which cause neighborhoods to fall apart in deteriorate. Yeah,
Speaker 4: something tells me that's why they're polling so low within
Speaker 4: their own party. They embrace stupid boys can't be girls.
Speaker 4: Boys can't be girls. Sorry, that's just the dumb policy.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: Appreciated Bobby as always, Leslie, you're next, if you don't
Speaker 4: mind holding like, I take a break. It's already six
Speaker 4: twenty five right now to have local stories as well,
Speaker 4: and I appreciate your call. So let's engage in conversation
Speaker 4: and let's recommend affordable imaging services. A lot of listeners
Speaker 4: taking my advice. No is what you say to your
Speaker 4: doctor when he says go to the hospital imaging department
Speaker 4: to get your well your CT scan.
Speaker 1: I'm not going there. Well, why not?
Speaker 4: Because I can go to affordable imaging services and save
Speaker 4: like three thousand, four thousand dollars. That is money that's
Speaker 4: coming out of my pocket if I go to the hospital.
Speaker 4: So if I go to affordable imaging services, I'm not
Speaker 4: going to pay five grand. I'm going to pay four
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty bucks if I don't need a contrast
Speaker 4: six hundred with a contrast. That low price comes with
Speaker 4: the board Certified Radiologist report, and it's the same thing
Speaker 4: across the board where it's an ultrasound MRI that CT
Speaker 4: scan I mentioned Echo Cartogram x GRAYCE a tiny fraction
Speaker 4: of the price at the hospital imaging department, of course,
Speaker 4: expect low overhead, but expect the same kind of equipment,
Speaker 4: which is what they've got, and at medical professionals operating it.
Speaker 4: They've been at this for for for decades. So do
Speaker 4: what I did, Do what my friend Jeff did, Do
Speaker 4: what my friend Fred did. And some have recommended this
Speaker 4: to their friends because they had such a great experience
Speaker 4: and save so much money. Do the same thing what
Speaker 4: I'm doing for you right now. Five one three seven,

Speaker 4: on the phone thank you for holding Wesley. Welcome to
Speaker 4: the Morning Show.
Speaker 15: Hey, good morning, Brian. Your remark yesterday about the if
Speaker 15: the dollar collapse the whole world would go into.
Speaker 1: A recession.
Speaker 15: Depression, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it sparked a few things in
Speaker 15: my mind. I got two or three points to make sure,
Speaker 15: almost as almost as stood as America was began to
Speaker 15: be settled by Christian men, the Industrial Revolution started very
Speaker 15: very soon after that. And Chris, it's no, it's no
Speaker 15: new thing. That America is the most incredible country the
Speaker 15: world has ever seen. But it was founded on principles
Speaker 15: from God's work by Christian men and women, and that
Speaker 15: the free him to I have two good books for
Speaker 15: people to read. One is called May Spring of Human
Speaker 15: Progress by a guy named Carvey and The Five thousand
Speaker 15: Year Leap by Cleon Skousen. They're both They both deal
Speaker 15: with personal freedom and personal ingenuity and human energy and
Speaker 15: when it's to put to use. But now, when Barack
Speaker 15: Obama became president, teammate politics personal and the Democrats take
Speaker 15: it personally and make it personal. And the big point
Speaker 15: I wanted to make is when Donald Trump was elected
Speaker 15: president in twenty sixteen, for the next four years, he
Speaker 15: had to deal with people trying to sty me what
Speaker 15: he wanted to do, and then the Democrats stole the election.
Speaker 15: If they had not stolen it and Trump had been
Speaker 15: re elected, he still would have been stymied for the
Speaker 15: next four years.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
Speaker 15: But because the Democrats stole the election, they shot themselves
Speaker 15: in the foot, because it gave Donald Trump four years
Speaker 15: to plan and find men and women that he could
Speaker 15: trust to implement his telegrams, and now they don't know
Speaker 15: what the hell to do.
Speaker 4: I agree that latter part I agree with completely, and
Speaker 4: I think it was actually a blessing in disguise. We
Speaker 4: had to put up with Biden for four years because
Speaker 4: it gave us sort of a in a way, a
Speaker 4: moral compass to compare. It's like comparing, you know, the
Speaker 4: old days. We used to compare ourselves to the Soviet Union.
Speaker 4: Do you want breadlines? Do you want freedom and all
Speaker 4: the bounty that it brings. Yeah, we saw what Biden did.
Speaker 4: We saw about government takeover. And as to your point
Speaker 4: of religion, this is why Marxist hate religion. See, the
Speaker 4: left wing wants to replace your religious philosophies. This idea
Speaker 4: that you have free will you have the ability to
Speaker 4: be a decent person or not, and a substitute the
Speaker 4: Christian morality, the Judeo Christian work ethic with government, rules, regulations,
Speaker 4: and ethics. Government is the highest power on the world.
Speaker 4: It has more power. There is no God. It is
Speaker 4: government where all power comes from. And that you know
Speaker 4: that underminds your religion in personal responsibility.
Speaker 15: When when when Trump lost the election to Biden, I
Speaker 15: told my wife that that the biggest thing Trump accomplished
Speaker 15: in his four years is he exposed the Democrats for
Speaker 15: what they really are. So that's that's what I wanted
Speaker 15: to chat about.
Speaker 1: Thanks, good comments, Wesley.
Speaker 4: Thank you for calling this morning five one three, two
Speaker 4: three talking. Feel free to chime in real kick here.
Speaker 4: I get one story in Joe. Can we give an
Speaker 4: award out at this moment in time? What local person
Speaker 4: deserves it? I cannot believe what I'm reading here. Some
Speaker 4: people have an extra spot extra hot spot in hell.
Speaker 4: Got a woman accused of stealing nearly one hundred and
Speaker 4: fifty thousand dollars from military veterans arrested by federal agents.
Speaker 4: Ishwanzia Rivers, forty six, arrested yesterday in Louisville. According to
Speaker 4: the US Attorney Dominic Garassi. The second, she stole more
Speaker 4: than one hundred and thirty grand from one elderly dying
Speaker 4: veteran living at the VA Hospital here in Cincinnati. Also
Speaker 4: accused the misappropriate misappropriating the victims money at least forty
Speaker 4: five times between June twenty one and November of twenty two.
Speaker 4: Federal officials alleged that she stole smaller amounts of money
Speaker 4: totally more than fifteen thousand dollars from three other elderly
Speaker 4: or infirm veterans. Used to stolen money to fund shopping
Speaker 4: trips and travel to New Orleans, Montego Bay, Cancun, London, Panama, Zurich, Vienna,
Speaker 4: and Maldi's misapprobraty funds is as a fiduciary making false
Speaker 4: statements or federal crimes, each punishable by up to five
Speaker 4: years in prison. Let's hope she gets it's locked up
Speaker 4: if in fact, she's proven beyond a reasonable doubt to
Speaker 4: have done this. Jeez, six thirty five fifty five KRC.

Speaker 4: talk time five fifty on AT and T phones.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: Some parallels could be drawn with Washington, DC and what's
Speaker 4: going on yesterday. You heard Mara after a parol. Wowl've
Speaker 4: been talking about that this morning. All the reforms he's
Speaker 4: put in, all different policing, all that we're doing, putting
Speaker 4: more officers out there in different patrols. Well, you have
Speaker 4: a limited number of finite number officers. And of course
Speaker 4: since the defund the police thing's going on, we like
Speaker 4: every other community, has had a problem keeping police officers
Speaker 4: on the ranks. And that's what's going on in DC.
Speaker 4: So Donald Trump orders a national garden. Got people pulling
Speaker 4: their hair out over the whole thing. Ask the police
Speaker 4: chief in DC what he thinks or she thinks. Metron
Speaker 4: Police Chief Pamela Smith happy to have them, said. The
Speaker 4: extra patrols from the FBI, the DEA, Homeland Security Department, FBI,
Speaker 4: what whoever National Guard have helped authorities arrest criminals would
Speaker 4: otherwise remain loose. Remember she said, you're talking about five
Speaker 4: hundred additional personnel in the district of Columbia. As you know,
Speaker 4: we've talked about this, the fact that we are down
Speaker 4: in numbers with our police officer and so this enhanced
Speaker 4: presence clearly is going to impact us in a positive way.
Speaker 1: Huh. Countering the left wing of about this going on? Huh.
Speaker 4: Metropolitan Police Department currently thirty one hundred sworn officers, which
Speaker 4: is described as a fifty year low. Mass attrition occurred
Speaker 4: after the defund police movement in twenty twenty and they
Speaker 4: have never recovered now once the Feds land there thanks
Speaker 4: to Donald Trump, one hundred and three arrests as of yesterday,
Speaker 4: forty three people on Tuesday alone, homicide, guns, drugs, and
Speaker 4: folks of course in the country illegally. Now among the
Speaker 4: folks patrolling around Tuesday, seven hundred and fifty were the
Speaker 4: actual police department thirty National Guard troops that they say
Speaker 4: about eight hundred are expected to be deployed as of yesterday,
Speaker 4: so significantly increase in the numbers. They're also going to
Speaker 4: patrol all day rather than just after dark. Pivoting over
Speaker 4: to Merrill. Mayor Muriel Bowser, Democrat, referring to the takeover
Speaker 4: as she recalled it unsettling and unprecedented. However, acknowledging reality
Speaker 4: Bowser quote to the extent that you see the federal
Speaker 4: surge getting more arrests, taking more guns, Metropolitan Police Department
Speaker 4: officers would would emphasizing, would do the same thing. We
Speaker 4: need to be very very focused on how we recruit
Speaker 4: retain officers, how we make sure our policy environment promotes
Speaker 4: accountability for people who use guns in our city, and
Speaker 4: those things combined will make our city safe. More police,
Speaker 4: more police. The solution is more. Now, how can a
Speaker 4: parallel be drawn with us in the city of Cincinnati, Mayor,
Speaker 4: I have to have purple embracing the idea of the
Speaker 4: high State Highway Patrol coming in and patrolling the roads
Speaker 4: and issuing speeding citations and traffic citations, freeing up police
Speaker 4: officers to get on the street so they can help
Speaker 4: with law enforcement.
Speaker 1: Huh. So we don't have the National Guard, we have
Speaker 1: the high State Highway Patrol coming in.
Speaker 4: It's in many ways, I would say conceptually the same
Speaker 4: kind of thing. More law enforcement, not less, not defund
Speaker 4: and eliminate the police. More law enforcement. Here we have
Speaker 4: mayor DC mayor far left winger acknowledging that point. We
Speaker 4: wouldn't need the National Guard. If we had a full
Speaker 4: complement of Metropolitan Police Department officers, more police, we wouldn't
Speaker 4: need them, right exactly.
Speaker 1: And if we have more.
Speaker 4: Police on the streets of the city of CINCINNTI patrolling
Speaker 4: all these different neighborhoods, wouldn't need the ohiose state have
Speaker 4: patrol to come in and help us. We're down a
Speaker 4: couple of one hundred officers. That's why they're emphasizing lateral hires.
Speaker 4: That's why council acted last week, did the you know,
Speaker 4: two million dollars to hire more officers laterally because we
Speaker 4: need more police. Crazy, isn't it. See they're now doing
Speaker 4: what we all want once head the whole time, moving
Speaker 4: away from that left wing, get rid of the police narrative,
Speaker 4: recognizing its failure, and moving back without saying we were
Speaker 4: wrong to pretty much through their actions acknowledging that they
Speaker 4: were wrong. Larry, hang on, I promise I will get

Speaker 4: Thank you man.
Speaker 3: And I'm a black man like and I'm an.
Speaker 16: African American male, I'm not voting for the Democratic ticket.
Speaker 4: Good for you at all. Good for you. See you're enlightened.
Speaker 4: You refuse to be brainwashed. You understand as a free thinking,
Speaker 4: independent thinking individual, regardless of color of skin, you need
Speaker 4: to do what's right for your community. You recognize the
Speaker 4: failures of the current administration. You're not going to go
Speaker 4: down that road again. We need a different path. Maybe
Speaker 4: the path to go is Corey Bowman, maybe it is
Speaker 4: Steve Gooden, maybe it's Christopher Smithman. There are excellent candidates
Speaker 4: out there. They are not the lockstep, same thing you've
Speaker 4: done over and over again over the years. Let's try
Speaker 4: that path. Corey Bowmen's going to be joining the program
Speaker 4: coming up in the next hour at seven thirty.
Speaker 1: Going back to Washington, d C. And why not.
Speaker 4: This is a story that could have been in the
Speaker 4: stack of stupid. But since we have now these interactions
Speaker 4: with US Customs and Border officials there enforcing immigration law. Finally,
Speaker 4: as well as the other federal authorities helping out with
Speaker 4: fighting crime. We got a man facing him assault charge
Speaker 4: after forcefully throwing that's the cops said a subway sandwich
Speaker 4: at a US Customs and Border Protection agent having a
Speaker 4: DC on Sunday. Metro Transit police that they're patrolling the
Speaker 4: US the U Street area part of the Trump administration's
Speaker 4: initiative to crack down on crime when a man later
Speaker 4: identified as Sean Charles Dunn shouted obscenities at the Customs
Speaker 4: and Border Patrol agent standing inches from his face and
Speaker 4: of course, calling him a fascist. Moments later, Place said
Speaker 4: Done returned, wound up and of course this is on,
Speaker 4: and forcefully threw a sandwich at the agent, hitting him
Speaker 4: in the chest. He then ran away, being chased by
Speaker 4: federal officers, says Witnesses could be heard giggling is Done
Speaker 4: and ran away from the cops. Watch the video yourself.
Speaker 4: Of course, this went viral. After being arrested and taken
Speaker 4: down to the police stession, Done allegedly told another officer,
Speaker 4: I did it. I threw a sandwich. Charged with felony
Speaker 4: assault on a law enforcement officer. He it's attorney for
Speaker 4: the DC area, Jean Piro, when I asked about this
Speaker 4: incident on social media, quote he thought it was funny. Well,
Speaker 4: he doesn't think it's funny today because we charged him
Speaker 4: with a felony assault on a police officer, and we're
Speaker 4: going back to the police. We're going to back the
Speaker 4: police to the hill. So there, stick your subway sandwich.
Speaker 4: Somewhere else and props props to Fox Is for this comment.
Speaker 4: Subway did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's requests
Speaker 4: for comments. It's Subway's gonna have a position because it's
Speaker 4: sandwich was used in a filonious assault on a police officer.
Speaker 4: We live in a crazy world. We got some crazy
Speaker 4: to talk about. After the top of the hour news
Speaker 4: leading up to seven point thirty, Corey Bowman returns to

Speaker 4: fifty on AT and T phone before I jump over
Speaker 4: to Jay's call. Real quick reminder fifty five KRC dot

Speaker 4: I love here from Jack. Anytime you can't listen, I
Speaker 4: really encourage you to go to fifty five care Sea
Speaker 4: dot com and listen to his brilliance. Let's go to
Speaker 4: the phones, Jay, thank you for calling this morning. Welcome
Speaker 4: to the Morning Show. Are you I'm doing well?
Speaker 1: Jay? I sure, hope you can say the same.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, I've caught.
Speaker 18: It a few times. I spent nineteen years in the
Speaker 18: People's Republic of Portland, and I'm seeing huge parallels between
Speaker 18: Cincinnati in Portland. I used to go downtown Portland and
Speaker 18: Friday night was standing room only in every bar, every
Speaker 18: restaurant completely packed. Now it's a complete waste zone. Yeah,
Speaker 18: you can't even you can't even imagine the difference between
Speaker 18: fifteen years ago and now. And I'm seeing a lot
Speaker 18: of the same policies that Ted Wheeler in Portland rolled
Speaker 18: out and the same attitude from AFT have purvol scares me.
Speaker 18: We have a great, vibrant downtown. My girlfriend lives in Clifton.
Speaker 18: I'm down there four or five days a week. We
Speaker 18: go downtown on OTR on a regular basis. But if
Speaker 18: he doesn't get his arms around this, and that stupid
Speaker 18: city council doesn't get their heads out of there, but
Speaker 18: it's going to turn into another Portlander Seattle. It's scary.
Speaker 18: It's there's no reason for it. They're they're catering to
Speaker 18: the defund the police folks and ignoring the other three
Speaker 18: quarters of us.
Speaker 4: Crazy yep, And I don't know if yesterday's press conference
Speaker 4: with Parvall highlighting going well yeah, yeah, yeah, I can
Speaker 4: reach that conclusion. But at least what he's offered, what
Speaker 4: he has said is happening, appears to be something that's
Speaker 4: going in the opposite direction. All of it involves more
Speaker 4: patrols and more police and different times of patrols. Like,
Speaker 4: for example, he pointed out that this civil Disturbance Response
Speaker 4: Team and SWAT team are going to conatrolling the bank's
Speaker 4: fourth Street both day in the night and early morning.
Speaker 4: Now we didn't have that going on when the riot happened.
Speaker 4: You know, there was no police officers in District three
Speaker 4: at all. So maybe this will be a greater police presence.
Speaker 4: But you note all of the four or five different
Speaker 4: things that he is he pointed out, have happened, most
Speaker 4: notably since Sarah Heringer had her husband killed and stabbed
Speaker 4: to death and over the rhine.
Speaker 1: I was terrible.
Speaker 4: She's gonna be back on the program tomorrow, Jay, by
Speaker 4: way of advanced notice to you and everybody else, She'll
Speaker 4: be sure return tomorrow in the morning show. But these
Speaker 4: reforms kicked in, if you call them reforms post Patrick
Speaker 4: Herringer being stabbed to death and maybe it has resulted
Speaker 4: in some net benefit. Par of All claimed that crime
Speaker 4: is down, although the enquire statistics suggests no. Year over
Speaker 4: year it's up a lot. But he's not leaning on that,
Speaker 4: you know, the police of the problem kind of crutch
Speaker 4: like Iris Rawley has been doing now since what two
Speaker 4: thousand and one. So I understand your conclusions about mayor
Speaker 4: have to have par ball and given his record, of course,
Speaker 4: it's an easy thing to say about him, but it
Speaker 4: does appear that he might have gotten the message and
Speaker 4: that to embrace police and to increase the police numbers,
Speaker 4: to hire more lateral police, we'll restore our contingent of
Speaker 4: police officers so we can have more patrols, more law
Speaker 4: enforcement present. Was he clearly has indicated he thinks will
Speaker 4: work right.
Speaker 18: You know, we were at the Red Bull event down
Speaker 18: at Sawyer Point over the weekend. Oh yeah, and he
Speaker 18: came out. He came out and they introduced him. You
Speaker 18: can't believe the number of boos you heard in that crowd. Yes, yes, overwhelming,
Speaker 18: overwhelming number. And I was leaving the charge. My girlfriend
Speaker 18: was nailing me in the ribs with her elbow. But
Speaker 18: he's just a disaster. And then people are seeing it,
Speaker 18: so he either has to do a legitimate turnaround or
Speaker 18: the city's going to fall into the same state as Portland,
Speaker 18: Seattle in New York.
Speaker 4: Well that's pray to God that doesn't happen. And you know,
Speaker 4: all you do is vote new people and are different
Speaker 4: people in this November, maybe save us from ourselves. Thank you, Jay,
Speaker 4: appreciate your call. And we regularly hear from Todd zenden
Speaker 4: Zenzer our citizen watchdog, and I startling encourage you to
Speaker 4: follow his podcast, get on Facebook and see what he
Speaker 4: has to say.
Speaker 1: He's brilliant.
Speaker 4: And he wrote an op ed piece about Iris Raleigh
Speaker 4: and you know, to my listeners, sinceypolice dot Com, since
Speaker 4: me with the why police dot Com, we only need
Speaker 4: like two hundred more signatures signing the petition urging city
Speaker 4: administration to get rid of Iris Rawley, who is demonstrably
Speaker 4: anti police. She's been an outspoken anti police person for
Speaker 4: all forever. So Zenza recognizes this and her work on
Speaker 4: the Collaborative Agreement, which we all pat ourselves on the
Speaker 4: back over question is it still out there? And according
Speaker 4: to Todd Zenzer's analysis, he doesn't even really think it
Speaker 4: exists anymore. There's a Todd had to say, thank you
Speaker 4: Todd for writing it. For twenty years, the Cincinni police
Speaker 4: were the tip of the spear for the Collaborative Agreement,
Speaker 4: a landmark pack that addresses issues of police, community relations
Speaker 4: and racial profiling in the city. But since twenty twenty two,
Speaker 4: the city manager and a hand picked consultant seemed to
Speaker 4: be in charge. Complaints to fuel the perception that the consultant,
Speaker 4: Iris Rawley, exercises an oversized influence over police matters. This
Speaker 4: is the same Iris Rawlli you can see on videotape
Speaker 4: interfering with police officers doing their job. The city made
Speaker 4: three attempts between twenty sixteen and twenty twenty to hire
Speaker 4: and retain a professional Collaborative Agreement sustainability manager. When a
Speaker 4: third manager left sometime after July nineteen, the city ultimately
Speaker 4: decided to hire Iris Rawley, who was a member of
Speaker 4: the original management advisory group under the Collaborative Agreement. Position
Speaker 4: is called the ready initial cap Collaborative Agreement Sustainability Initiatives consultant.
Speaker 4: We have one of those. That person is Iris Rawley.
Speaker 4: The consultant's original six month contract has been extended was
Speaker 4: described by the interim manager in a memo data February fifteenth,
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. One of the five deliverables was to
Speaker 4: quote provide advice regarding and facilitate community engagement with respect
Speaker 4: to the hiring of a new police chief as requested
Speaker 4: by the city. Close quote now Todd observed if a
Speaker 4: consultant is qualified to provide advice on hiring a police chief,
Speaker 4: presumably they are also qualified to provide advice on firing
Speaker 4: a police chief or perhaps other police managers, or even
Speaker 4: a street cop. Most people would agree that a consultant
Speaker 4: with such a portfolio and ongoing access to the city's
Speaker 4: leadership is in a position to exercise undue influence over
Speaker 4: police matters, including personnel. For example, footage from body worn
Speaker 4: cameras is circulating on social media showing Iris Rally inserting
Speaker 4: herself in police matters. In one, she's seen interfering with
Speaker 4: a police officer who is calmly seeking compliance from a
Speaker 4: citizen concerning the law against open containers. Raleigh is heard
Speaker 4: saying that she has a list of police officers and
Speaker 4: if the citizen needs to file a complaint. If he
Speaker 4: needs the file a complaint, if he wants to get
Speaker 4: that matter a particular officer on her list. That sounds
Speaker 4: ominous and far from collaborative. Iris Rawley's conduct is a
Speaker 4: big indication that the collaborativegreement has been hollowed out and
Speaker 4: there is more evidence of the collaborative's erosion the most
Speaker 4: this is crazy. The most recent entry on the city
Speaker 4: manager's website about the Management Advisory Group dated twenty twenty one.
Speaker 4: The collaborative timeline on the police website last updated February
Speaker 4: twenty twenty. In the list of police contacts on the
Speaker 4: City Police Department's website, the contact for collaborative policing is
Speaker 4: one of six positions out of a listing of sixty
Speaker 4: six with no contact named. That makes it look like
Speaker 4: no one is a sign of those responsibilities. Together, these
Speaker 4: things make it appear the collaborative agreement is dead. Violence
Speaker 4: reduction programs born from the collaborative have also quote evolved
Speaker 4: close quote. The Cincinnati Initiative to Reduce Violence CIRV, for example,
Speaker 4: has gone by the wayside. In a report dated February
Speaker 4: last year, the city manager told local WCPO news that
Speaker 4: the initiative had evolved. Indeed, the city announced the reimagining
Speaker 4: of CIARV. Six months earlier, on July thirtieth, twenty twenty three,
Speaker 4: thealy CPO described the CIRV as the primary violence reduction
Speaker 4: program in the city between twenty seven and twenty fifteen.
Speaker 4: The videos of Raleigh are evidence that the city manager
Speaker 4: has a toxic situation on her hands. Is probably one
Speaker 4: of the leading factors affecting employee morale, and represents a
Speaker 4: serious organizational risk on other levels as well. Whether Raleigh
Speaker 4: stays or goes, the city should reach out to someone
Speaker 4: like Saul Green, who served as the Collaboratives court appointed monitor.
Speaker 4: An independent and credible my emphasis not Todd's authority on
Speaker 4: law enforcement management is urgently needed to make an assessment
Speaker 4: and advise the mayor and city Council on possible solutions
Speaker 4: to this toxic situation and its aftermath. Todd Zenzer, Citizen Watchdog,
Speaker 4: excellent point, Todd, and you can help help out sincypolice
Speaker 4: dot com. Look, go to the website, sign a petition,
Speaker 4: but we can get them over the top. Five thousand
Speaker 4: is what they're looking for, and we are awfully close.

Speaker 4: how great they treated her, and just she is so pleased.
Speaker 4: She's recommending them to their friends and everything. And I
Speaker 4: just responded to her, thanking her for passing along. And
Speaker 4: I was wondering if she worked with my daughter's fiance Eric.
Speaker 4: So Sander, let me know about that. I hope. So ah,
Speaker 4: real quick, Here wonderful news. And you know, I guess
Speaker 4: Trump's tariffs are working. This is what he promised. And
Speaker 4: just you may have heard at the top of the
Speaker 4: UR news ge G Appliances investing three billion dollars expanding
Speaker 4: and modernizing against US factories is going to take place
Speaker 4: over the next five years. It's a China based company.
Speaker 4: So the money's going to go factories in South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia,
Speaker 4: and Alabama, along with the four hundred and ninety million
Speaker 4: dollar expansion in the washing machine factory that they had
Speaker 4: previously announced. It's in Louisville, Kentucky. That's part of the
Speaker 4: three billion total job creation. Absolutely one thousand jobs. Why tariffs?
Speaker 4: Their chief executive and appliance guide in Kevin Nolan quote,
Speaker 4: I think it's become obvious with tariffs that building in
Speaker 4: the US is a good thing. Right now, Hm, that's
Speaker 4: exactly what Trump promise would happen. And it's not the
Speaker 4: only company that's done this. There's been a whole bunch
Speaker 4: of announcements from variety of companies around the world that
Speaker 4: are moving with jobs here. Another question. I know that
Speaker 4: crazy Zoron Mom Donnie guy that's leading the race for
Speaker 4: mayor of the City of New York, wants to build
Speaker 4: well state or city run grocery stores. A laughable concept
Speaker 4: considering it's happened before and it never works. Most recent illustration,
Speaker 4: the city owned Missouri grocery store has closed. They couldn't
Speaker 4: keep the shelves stocked. They were describing it as insurmountable
Speaker 4: challenges for this grocery store to stay open. Yeah, there's
Speaker 4: something about a profit in centerve that actually makes something work.
Speaker 4: But I'm wondering amid all these cries you have about
Speaker 4: food deserts. You know, our community is struggling. We don't
Speaker 4: have a grocery store here. And quite often the grocery
Speaker 4: stores pull the plug when they get ripped off. So
Speaker 4: many times they can't manage a profit. Profit is key
Speaker 4: to keeping something open. And when you're dealing with single
Speaker 4: digit profit margins and grocery stores do, it's one of
Speaker 4: the lowest profit margin businesses out there. You think of
Speaker 4: all the waste in addition to the theft, but there's
Speaker 4: a lot of waste, like the produce and meats and
Speaker 4: fish and everything. They're constantly you know, swapping out inventory
Speaker 4: and having to take losses for that.
Speaker 1: It's tough to make a profit.
Speaker 4: You're looking at like five points five percent points in profit,
Speaker 4: so it's a slim margin. And when crime undermines even that,
Speaker 4: then they leave the area. So in these modern times,
Speaker 4: are there food deserts anymore? And I asked that because
Speaker 4: Amazon has now launched same day deliveries of groceries, including
Speaker 4: perishable things like eggs and meat same day in more
Speaker 4: than one thousand US cities. They cite, you know, Raleigh,
Speaker 4: North Carolina, Tampa, Florida, Milwaukee, just amongst some random locations,
Speaker 4: and they say they're going to plan to reach at
Speaker 4: least twenty three hundred locations by the end of the year.
Speaker 4: Now does it come at a cost? Yes, Prime members
Speaker 4: on orders over twenty five free two dollars and ninety
Speaker 4: nine cent fee for a Prime member. If you don't
Speaker 4: make it to twenty five bucks, if you don't have
Speaker 4: a Prime membership, at a twelve dollars ninety nine cent
Speaker 4: fee for the service. Now that is the insurmountable hurdle
Speaker 4: for maybe some families that are struggling on a budget.
Speaker 4: But I'm thinking this is something that could be resolved
Speaker 4: down the road. If Amazon wants to be charitable, perhaps
Speaker 4: maybe as part of their charitable work, they could provide
Speaker 4: free delivery for folks who are truly on life's margins.
Speaker 4: Let's say, if you qualify for SNAP program or other
Speaker 4: welfare benefits, you can provide information Amazon that you are
Speaker 4: in the lower income echelons and therefore are worthy of
Speaker 4: having that fee waved. I could see that happening. You
Speaker 4: can't make it obligate. You can't obligate Amazon to do that,
Speaker 4: But it is possible, Ergos, someone could have delivery of
Speaker 4: groceries in their neighborhood. That would mean no more food deserts.
Speaker 4: I don't have to get into a car and travel
Speaker 4: five miles six miles however long a distance to get
Speaker 4: to the place where the food is sold. It would
Speaker 4: also avoid theft because you'd have to pay up front
Speaker 4: for the groceries that are being delivered, assuring that Amazon
Speaker 4: gets to make its profit even if it's waving a
Speaker 4: delivery fee. So possible future in dealing with food deserts
Speaker 4: sounds me like it, at least it's an idea. Seven

Speaker 4: elderly disabled American veterans, this is just beyond the pale
Speaker 4: ishwan Zia Rivers, forty six, arrested yesterday in Louisville, Kentucky.
Speaker 4: According to the United States Attorney Dominica Gerresi, the second
Speaker 4: stole more than one hundred and thirty thousand dollars from
Speaker 4: one elderly dying veteran who was living at the VA
Speaker 4: Hospital here in Cincinnati. Accused of misappropriating the victims money
Speaker 4: at least forty five times between June of twenty one
Speaker 4: and November of twenty twenty two. Also alleged she stole
Speaker 4: smaller amounts of money totally more than fifteen thousand dollars
Speaker 4: from three other elderly or infirm veterans. She used to
Speaker 4: stolen money for shopping trips and travel. She went to
Speaker 4: New Orleans, Montego Bay, Cancun, London, Panama, Zurich, among others.
Speaker 4: Being a fiduciary, misappropriating funds, making false statements federal crimes,
Speaker 4: each punishable buy up to five years in prison. Enjoy
Speaker 4: your prison time. Who could steal from a disabled, elderly veteran? Oh,
Speaker 4: she could HIV positive man indicted in sexual assault cases.
Speaker 4: Detectives feared that there could be other victims. May First,
Speaker 4: Coleraine Township Police said they got to report that a
Speaker 4: thirty four year old Troy Taylor had engaged in sexual
Speaker 4: activity he is HIV positive and didn't let the victim know.
Speaker 4: After being assigned to detectives that case, police said Taylor
Speaker 4: was arrested July fourteenth for flonious assault. They learned Taylor
Speaker 4: had committed similar offenses against other victims. According to legal
Speaker 4: analyst Mark Crumbine, speaking with Fox News Local Fox nineteen,
Speaker 4: typically they charge a person who has taken the test
Speaker 4: and knows for sure that they are HIV positive. I'm

Speaker 4: Good to have you in the studio. Is your mic on?

Speaker 1: Can you hear me? Now? That works?
Speaker 19: Thank you so much for having me start.
Speaker 4: From scratch, Corey, got to see you, brother.
Speaker 12: Thank you so much for having me. I apologize for
Speaker 12: getting caught in a little bit of traffic there.
Speaker 4: Now you can't avoid that. It happens all the time.
Speaker 4: Anybody who lives in the greater Cincinnati area knows that's
Speaker 4: going to hit you from time to time. I understand.
Speaker 4: Dro started a little lighter note. You attended the baseball
Speaker 4: game yesterday. You got to see the the little league
Speaker 4: home run they got it in in in the park, Homer.
Speaker 4: That was I watched that video.
Speaker 12: That was electric in the stadium, because I mean, it's
Speaker 12: that's at the point where you don't know how the
Speaker 12: game's gonna go, and as a Reds fan, you're just
Speaker 12: like praying that you didn't just waste your entire night.
Speaker 12: And then when that happened, it is like my five
Speaker 12: year old boy. It's so I've got five and seven
Speaker 12: year old boy that they just like get so mad
Speaker 12: when we don't win when we go to a game,
Speaker 12: because it's like you get to go there once in
Speaker 12: a couple of weeks or a couple of months. And
Speaker 12: when that happened, they were like yes.
Speaker 19: And then when the Grand.
Speaker 12: Slam happened, it was like my five year old, I mean,
Speaker 12: I felt like the greatest dat in the world. He
Speaker 12: was giving me a hug and ever so it was good.
Speaker 12: And we're five week old son. That was his first
Speaker 12: game there too, so I'm not sure how much he
Speaker 12: was keeping track of the stats, but he enjoyed it. Well.
Speaker 4: I bet you got a lot of pictures in that.
Speaker 4: I remember the first time we took our son after
Speaker 4: he was born to a it was a Cubs game
Speaker 4: because we were living in at the time. Hit his
Speaker 4: little tiny club Cubs onesie on and his little ball cap.
Speaker 12: I will say this that, you know, I always like
Speaker 12: try to watch the different fan bases, you know, the
Speaker 12: cub fan bases. I actually love the cub fans, yeah,
Speaker 12: whenever they come into town. But the Phillies fans they
Speaker 12: were extremely loud last night. So I started realizing, like
Speaker 12: Philly fans, they know how to get loud when it
Speaker 12: comes to their team, even though you know we beat
Speaker 12: them at the end of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, congratulations to the Reds on that. Well, we can
Speaker 4: pivot over because you were at the Reds game. You
Speaker 4: would let me know because I was talking about that
Speaker 4: shooting in Queensgate at sixth and Lynn, a woman got
Speaker 4: shot in the back, and you came in. You pointed
Speaker 4: out that that's not that far away from the Great
Speaker 4: American Ballpark.
Speaker 12: Yeah, so, I mean I was telling you earlier that's
Speaker 12: actually where we started our church. So we were in
Speaker 12: the Queensgate area right around Fifth and Lynn. There's homeless,
Speaker 12: homeless encampments there. There's you know, obviously the issues that
Speaker 12: are happening in that area, but also especially during Bengals
Speaker 12: games when it's extremely full, but a lot lot of
Speaker 12: people park in the Queen's Gate area to avoid parking
Speaker 12: rates that are a mile away in the stadiums, and
Speaker 12: so when up happenings that even during the Reds games,
Speaker 12: people will park in certain areas of Queen's Gate and
Speaker 12: they'll ride scooters over, they'll walk over because it's only
Speaker 12: a mile and a half away. When the middle of
Speaker 12: the I believe it was the fifth inning, I'm looking
Speaker 12: down at my phone monitoring all the scanners and everything,
Speaker 12: and we see that there was a drive by shooting.
Speaker 12: This woman gets shot in the back, and I just
Speaker 12: can't believe that this happening in the middle of the
Speaker 12: Reds game. Thousands of people downtown for this and we're
Speaker 12: a mile and a half away, and this is happening.
Speaker 4: Well, I suppose shooting in downtown Cincinnati happens. Seems to
Speaker 4: be happening all the time. I mean, just that it's
Speaker 4: happens being close to proximity Great American Ballpark. Hell, we've
Speaker 4: had well, I guess I could call it riots close
Speaker 4: to the Great American Ballpark in the downtown Sinceny area.
Speaker 4: So crime huge issue, may have to have. Pulwall says
Speaker 4: the city is safe despite the perception, and he claimed
Speaker 4: yesterday that the crime was actually down, which I found, Well,
Speaker 4: he can say it all day long, but he may
Speaker 4: be living in a state of denial this since an
Speaker 4: inquiry reported that actually the crime is up. They point
Speaker 4: out if you just look at the month to month
Speaker 4: data that there was a in downtown collectively twenty six
Speaker 4: percent reduction serious violent crime. But if you look at
Speaker 4: it year to year, we are up forty eight percent
Speaker 4: over last year in violent crime.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and there's a saying that's going around right now
Speaker 12: that your perception is your reality. Right now, I'm actually
Speaker 12: like a fan of this specific statement when it comes
Speaker 12: to certain things because we came out of like youth ministry,
Speaker 12: and we came out of like I mean, there's marriage
Speaker 12: counseling involved in having a church, and so a lot
Speaker 12: of times when you talk to people about their relationships
Speaker 12: and marriage, or you talk about like parents, you talk
Speaker 12: about how, yeah, their perception is their reality. You know,
Speaker 12: how they view the world, that's their reality. You have
Speaker 12: to take that in consideration. But there's never a point
Speaker 12: where a child or a teenager would come in with
Speaker 12: a black eye and say that their dad beat them
Speaker 12: and I would look at them say, well, your perception
Speaker 12: is your reality. No, your reality is your reality. That
Speaker 12: actually happened that actually degrades the experience that that person had.
Speaker 12: Whenever you say, oh, it's only your perception that seems
Speaker 12: that it's unsafe, No, it was the fact that a
Speaker 12: woman got shot in the back last night a mile
Speaker 12: away from the stadiums. That's what's happening in our city,
Speaker 12: and it's not about perception anymore. It's about this is
Speaker 12: a reality that people downtown are fed up with bullets.
Speaker 12: Tell that to the person that's on Clark Street in
Speaker 12: John Street that's right by my church, where sixty five
Speaker 12: to seventy five bullets came going down Clark Street one
Speaker 12: night on Friday night. And then recently, Yeah, so we
Speaker 12: had an outreach that was happening at the stadium that
Speaker 12: night where over seven hundred individuals were there. Six hours later,
Speaker 12: there were sixty five seventy five bullets that were coming
Speaker 12: from the very end of Lynn Street all the way
Speaker 12: down Clark Street to John Street. And that was happening
Speaker 12: to where these are people that it's not just the
Speaker 12: bad areas, it's not just this. These are people that
Speaker 12: own homes or town homes here that they're fed up
Speaker 12: with what's going on in our city.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think I'd be a little upset if there was
Speaker 4: a bullet hole in my house.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 12: Try telling the person that has a bullet hole in
Speaker 12: their window that all your perception is your reality. Yeah,
Speaker 12: a bullet hole is your reality.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my perception would be I perceive it a wonderful
Speaker 4: thing that I wasn't standing in that room when the
Speaker 4: bullet came into it. Let's pause will bring Corey bumming back.
Speaker 4: Lots to talk about between now and the bottom of

Speaker 4: It's seven to fifty year five kr CD talk station.
Speaker 4: Around Thomas is Corey Bowman, Coreyboman dot com where you
Speaker 4: find him. He's running for the Mari City Cincinnati as
Speaker 4: a Republican. A tough road to ho he knows it,
Speaker 4: but he's up to the challenge and making some inroads
Speaker 4: and various potential voting blocks. Of course, you got the
Speaker 4: benefit of potential Hyde Park voters given what happened to
Speaker 4: them by the City of Cincinnati, and you got Bond
Speaker 4: Hill potential voters because of the property issue. And of
Speaker 4: course we have this raging issue crime which has brought
Speaker 4: a lot of national attention, you know, actually international attention.
Speaker 4: If you look at what the vice mayor or the
Speaker 4: pro tem councilwoman the third line from the mayor spot
Speaker 4: saying that in this beatdown, that they deserved the beat down,
Speaker 4: that somehow, I mean, even ignoring the Russian guys, somehow
Speaker 4: anybody could justify Holly getting punched in the face and
Speaker 4: knocked out for what appears to be merely rendering aid
Speaker 4: to someone in distress is inexcusable, and no, she did
Speaker 4: not deserve that, but that actually made global news. Corey,
Speaker 4: this is not the type of attention we want in
Speaker 4: the city of Cincinnati. And going back to Pervol's comments yesterday,
Speaker 4: all it's safe despite the perception, Well that perception is
Speaker 4: now a national, if not global phenomenon. Corey, you get
Speaker 4: a lot of national attention too.
Speaker 1: I haven't.
Speaker 4: I can't read your name in the paper without following
Speaker 4: up by brother or Vice President JD. Vans as if
Speaker 4: that has anything to do with anything you're about, Corey,
Speaker 4: go ahead, Yeah.
Speaker 12: Well I'm always going to say this. I'm never ashamed
Speaker 12: of my relationship with my brother. He's doing incredible things,
Speaker 12: and what he's doing from the vice presidentcy standpoint, it
Speaker 12: just amazes me every day. But putting that aside, we
Speaker 12: have to realize that these are city issues. You just
Speaker 12: mentioned that Hyde Park, bond Hill. We've got some potential
Speaker 12: people that could vote for us. This to me is
Speaker 12: not a political game of trying to necessarily even though
Speaker 12: we are trying to get votes because we believe we're
Speaker 12: the best candidate for mayor, but these are city issues
Speaker 12: that should be important to everybody. They shouldn't be red
Speaker 12: or blue issues. It's hey, we need clean streets, we
Speaker 12: need safe streets, we need prosperous streets. But then also
Speaker 12: you need council members that look at the voices of
Speaker 12: the people and consider that on a consistent basis. Not
Speaker 12: just get a blank check whenever you get voted in
Speaker 12: to do whatever you want, but say no, this is
Speaker 12: a vote of confidence that I'm going to continue to
Speaker 12: listen to the voices of the residents. And that's what
Speaker 12: we're running for now. When we talk about national intention,
Speaker 12: the national intention is getting there because people care about
Speaker 12: our cities. You know, I was born in Hamilton, Ohio.
Speaker 12: There's a Joe Nuxall Way that's actually in Hamilton, Ohio.
Speaker 12: People in Hamilton, Ohio, Fairfield and surrounding areas they feel
Speaker 12: that Cincinnati is their home as well. They come down
Speaker 12: here for concerts, that come down here for the web
Speaker 12: and fireworks that's happening at the end of the month.
Speaker 12: They love this city just as much as anybody else.
Speaker 12: And so I think that there's a lot of people
Speaker 12: that nationally care about our downtown cities. But then globally,
Speaker 12: you mentioned globally, what's happening is that you know, America's
Speaker 12: has to lead the way in so many things in
Speaker 12: our world. We have to be that light of hope
Speaker 12: for many nations. And when nations are watching America right now,
Speaker 12: they see a trend that our downtown areas are being
Speaker 12: riddled with crime, decaying infrastructure, and something needs to happen.
Speaker 12: But this needs to happen on our local levels. This
Speaker 12: cannot just be a point to where other people have
Speaker 12: to feel like they take the responsibility for it, even
Speaker 12: though that is what's happen and it's needed, like what
Speaker 12: we see in d C. But the reality of it
Speaker 12: is that our local government is failing its people and
Speaker 12: that's why this is happening. That's why we need strong leadership.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean take DCS in this illustration of the
Speaker 4: defund the police reality, and you know, post George Floyd,
Speaker 4: they lost a heapload of their police officers. They embraced
Speaker 4: the concept of defunding the police and rethinking the police
Speaker 4: and allocating resources elsewhere, you know, putting money into you know,
Speaker 4: community relations or some nebulous socialists or as a sociologists
Speaker 4: inspired concept, you need police officers. I mean that's what
Speaker 4: everyone is coming to the realization you're the chief of
Speaker 4: the Metropolitan Police Department in DC is saying, thank god,
Speaker 4: these guys are here now, thank you for the federal
Speaker 4: government steppinggin. We're down hundreds and hundreds of police officers.
Speaker 12: Let's talk about like the community initiatives and the things
Speaker 12: that happen these In my mind, there's so many programs
Speaker 12: and policies that divide the police officers from the communities
Speaker 12: they serve. I used to watch I watch these, you know,
Speaker 12: sports movies where all these guys would be in like
Speaker 12: let's say, a barbershop or a diner talking about the
Speaker 12: high school football team, right, and always in the corner
Speaker 12: there was a cop, right, And he wasn't there for
Speaker 12: protections because he was a part of the community, right.
Speaker 12: And that's what we need to get back to, is
Speaker 12: that these cops. I have a coffee shop in the
Speaker 12: West End. Once the cops knew that they were welcome
Speaker 12: in my shop, they wanted to be there, not for protection,
Speaker 12: but they want to be there to be a part
Speaker 12: of the community, to talk with people. And that's what
Speaker 12: we've got to restore in our city. But the three
Speaker 12: to one ones the arcs, the ACT for Cincy programs,
Speaker 12: all these things are dividing the cops from the communities
Speaker 12: they serve.
Speaker 4: And someone to talk about, you know, scarce valuable resources.
Speaker 4: Those are dollars and the being diverted away from hiring
Speaker 4: pe hiring citizen as.
Speaker 12: Three point two million dollars going to Act for Cincy.
Speaker 12: You know, you got seven point one million that's going
Speaker 12: towards speed humps on Harrison Avenue. Could you imagine what
Speaker 12: patrols of seven point one million dollars would do on
Speaker 12: Harrison Avenue?
Speaker 1: Yea.
Speaker 4: And what was Lansman's response to the crime? Two million
Speaker 4: dollars and that guy had to be divided between high
Speaker 4: ring lateral police officers, extra street lighting and uh two two.
Speaker 12: Yeah, the funds are there in our budget to be diverted,
Speaker 12: but you have to prioritize public safety. And I'm not
Speaker 12: talking because we see that about sixty four percent of
Speaker 12: the budget currently actually goes toward public safety, but a
Speaker 12: lot of it gets muddied with administrative salaries, with contracts
Speaker 12: or with other departments that might not necessarily be needed
Speaker 12: or put that much emphasis on. We've got to get
Speaker 12: back to the basis of a proper police force doing
Speaker 12: its job is really what's needed, not stacking on top
Speaker 12: of it. Let's stack drones, Let's stack a roving task force.
Speaker 19: Let's test this.
Speaker 12: No, how about we have a proper police force and
Speaker 12: that comes from the top down.
Speaker 4: More with Corey Bowman after the top of the our
Speaker 4: news segue two Jay Ratliff at seven or eight thirty,
Speaker 4: be right back, don't go away confused.
Speaker 1: Happens fast, stay up to date at the top of
Speaker 1: the hour. Not going to be complicated, It's going to
Speaker 1: go very fast.
Speaker 8: Fifty five KRZ the talk station, your summer pocket knife
Speaker 8: of information.
Speaker 1: That's the only way to stay for fifty five ARC
Speaker 1: the talk station.
Speaker 4: Eight o six here fifty five KRC talk station, A
Speaker 4: very happy Friday Eve.
Speaker 1: To come up. Bottom of the hour.
Speaker 4: It's Thursday, so we get I heard me the aviation extpert,
Speaker 4: Jay Rattlift. He had about a half a dozen topics.
Speaker 4: Where with Jay RATTLFF looking forward to that and of
Speaker 4: course looking forward to continue the conversation we're having right now.
Speaker 4: Corey Bowman in studio of course, Corybowman dot com running
Speaker 4: from ay of the City of Cincinnati. And uh, maybe
Speaker 4: we've got a possibility here. A lot of folks are upset,
Speaker 4: and of you, the mayor, have to have pro Ball's
Speaker 4: response to the epidemic we've got going on, I'll call
Speaker 4: it epidemic. The problem with crime, perceived or real seems
Speaker 4: to be a shift back over to more policing along
Speaker 4: lines what we were talking about before. We need police
Speaker 4: on the streets, we don't need, you know, a sort
Speaker 4: of side campaigns and you know, fluffy projects that we
Speaker 4: don't know whether are even born any fruit. I think
Speaker 4: that's one of the other problems. The corollary of this is, yes,
Speaker 4: we've got this program that's using up some of the
Speaker 4: resources that we could put toward lateral hires in the
Speaker 4: police or policing generally speaking, But is what that program
Speaker 4: is doing actually doing any good? Is it reducing violence?
Speaker 4: And if you look at the statistics alone, one might
Speaker 4: conclude that, well, maybe not, it's not and that the
Speaker 4: answer is more police on the street, which without saying
Speaker 4: the other programs don't work. Provol's efforts, at least in
Speaker 4: response to recent crime developments, is to engage in more
Speaker 4: policing efforts. Now, I guess in terms of where you
Speaker 4: would go in direction of crime fighting. Corey, you said
Speaker 4: we need a full contingent of police officers. That requires
Speaker 4: some more money. Clearly, we're gonna have to start training
Speaker 4: more police officers. That's a longer term proposition. Lateral hires
Speaker 4: are a great thing. How many of them are there?
Speaker 4: Can we hire people away laterally? That remains to be seen.
Speaker 4: I suppose that's in the works right now. But I
Speaker 4: guess my recommendation to people in the city, you know,
Speaker 4: choose a different path. We've got an administrative state kind
Speaker 4: of like the swamp that's built up over the last
Speaker 4: twenty thirty years with Democrats in control, and they've got
Speaker 4: a really entrenched group of folks within the City of
Speaker 4: Cincinnati and behind the scenes.
Speaker 12: Yeah, what I'm trying to get people to understand is
Speaker 12: because a lot of people think, well, what can a
Speaker 12: mayor really do?
Speaker 19: You know, especially with our structure.
Speaker 12: I thought I didn't think it was a strong mayor
Speaker 12: type of, you know scenario, with the policies and the
Speaker 12: charter that we have in place. But this is what
Speaker 12: happens is that we have a mayor election and then
Speaker 12: through that you have the ability of setting the city manager,
Speaker 12: which is our CEO. Of our city, and then through that,
Speaker 12: the city manager's office is in charge of so much
Speaker 12: in the city administratively. This is something that has to
Speaker 12: be looked at in our city because, I mean, everybody
Speaker 12: wants to focus on the video of the brawl, everybody
Speaker 12: wants to focus on the crime, everybody wants to focus
Speaker 12: on these you know, safe Hyde Park Square. But what
Speaker 12: this boils down to is that administratively, this city is
Speaker 12: not being run properly. And if there was any corporation
Speaker 12: that was being run like this, the CEO would be
Speaker 12: fired exactly. And so this has nothing to do. I'm
Speaker 12: sure maybe she's a nice lady, but for me, I'm
Speaker 12: looking at from the logistics standpoint of a CEO position
Speaker 12: with the city state that we're seeing right now needs
Speaker 12: to be removed and needs to be rethought about. So
Speaker 12: the city manager city manager's office that gets appointed by
Speaker 12: the mayor or at least the city manager does, and
Speaker 12: then through that city manager is able to appoint a
Speaker 12: strong chief and a bunch of other positions as well.
Speaker 12: There's probably about thirty board members, committee members, all these
Speaker 12: different things that happen, and then the mayor also appoints
Speaker 12: I mean, obviously this is a process with the approval
Speaker 12: of council and everything, but you also appoint the vice
Speaker 12: mayor as well, So with one election we can actually
Speaker 12: restore common sense into city Hall. And there's find people
Speaker 12: that work within the city, but a lot of those
Speaker 12: people actually reach out to me and say, hey, we
Speaker 12: need you know, change from the top down. This is
Speaker 12: not being run properly. And so I'm trying to tell people, yes,
Speaker 12: the hot topic is crime right now.
Speaker 19: We have to focus on crime.
Speaker 12: You mentioned the statistics when we look at more policing, Well,
Speaker 12: how about let's just have a good foundation of proper
Speaker 12: police force based on the authorized strength numbers. The authorized
Speaker 12: strength numbers that we have in our city right now
Speaker 12: is one fifty nine officers and right now we're about
Speaker 12: one hundred and ten below that. But here's another thing
Speaker 12: you have to look at is that the authorized strength
Speaker 12: number hasn't been looked at for years, and so we're
Speaker 12: actually basing this off of old numbers. We need to
Speaker 12: look at what's happening crime wise in our city. We
Speaker 12: need to look at what's happening on a daily basis.
Speaker 12: We need to re look at what is the actual
Speaker 12: number of policing that needs to happen in our city.
Speaker 4: And that I can hear someone out in the audience called, yeah, yeah, Well,
Speaker 4: the actual numbers when they were established, it the thousand,
Speaker 4: fifty nine or however many. We're established at a time
Speaker 4: when the population of the city Cincinnati was much larger.
Speaker 4: It has shrunk in size. But what I'd like to
Speaker 4: see in response to that, well, maybe that's true, but
Speaker 4: compared to population numbers and everything all being equal, what's
Speaker 4: the level of crime versus back when those numbers.
Speaker 12: And also, why do you think that the numbers are decreasing?
Speaker 4: Why do you think that people are leaving, defund the police,
Speaker 4: and bad attitude people want.
Speaker 12: To come and so, and then you put out high
Speaker 12: density housing for low income and so then you're basically
Speaker 12: just trying to stack votes in my opinion. But the
Speaker 12: reality of it is that people need to know that, Hey,
Speaker 12: if you're outside the city, if you're in different states,
Speaker 12: if you're in different careers, Cincinnati is the place to be.
Speaker 12: We need to see a jump in population growth. We
Speaker 12: need to see an excitement in our downtown area. We
Speaker 12: need to see a promise of industry coming to Cincinnati, games, tournaments,
Speaker 12: whatever that might be. But people aren't coming to Cincinnati
Speaker 12: right now. Whether you want to say because of the
Speaker 12: perception not the reality of it is that our city
Speaker 12: is not ready from a capacity standpoint in infrastructure, and
Speaker 12: it's not ready from a crime perspective when it comes
Speaker 12: to safety on our streets to be able to take
Speaker 12: on these events.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and anybody from the outside looking in who might
Speaker 4: consider moving can see all that. It's all well documented.
Speaker 4: I mean all the points you're making right now.
Speaker 12: Do you know the number one message that we get
Speaker 12: from our campaign or from my personal socials. I get
Speaker 12: it from parents. I've gotten so many emails from parents
Speaker 12: of incoming freshmen to University of Cincinnati right now that
Speaker 12: they're saying, we don't feel like our kids are safe
Speaker 12: at that campus. What are you going to do to
Speaker 12: make sure that the campus is safe? What are you
Speaker 12: going to do to make sure a lot of parents
Speaker 12: reach out to me and say, my kid just graduate
Speaker 12: from college, works downtown. I fear for their life. And
Speaker 12: those are valid fears. That isn't just like, oh, these
Speaker 12: are the suburbanites that are just out there and they
Speaker 12: don't really know what's going on. No, these are real
Speaker 12: fears that these parents or family members have and we
Speaker 12: need to change that in our city.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, as a parent of you know, my
Speaker 4: daughter went to Ohio State University. She got robbed at
Speaker 4: gunpoint twice.
Speaker 12: And Ohio State University is in the smack dab in
Speaker 12: the middle of downtown Columbus. And so when we see
Speaker 12: a failure in these cities, it's not just affecting the
Speaker 12: city residents. It's affecting our schools, it's affecting our businesses.
Speaker 12: I just talked with a man that just moved his
Speaker 12: business out of downtown Cincinnati and he has thirty two employees.
Speaker 12: He's moving to Blue Ash. Yeah, now I got his
Speaker 12: contact information. I reached out to him the day after
Speaker 12: this article happened, and he was shocked on the phone.
Speaker 12: He said, you're calling me right now, and I said, yeah,
Speaker 12: I want to know what's happening. Why is it that
Speaker 12: you left? Obviously I want to try to convince him
Speaker 12: to come back, But then at the same time, there's
Speaker 12: real issues of why he left. And he said, I've
Speaker 12: got a business that have been operating for years the city.
Speaker 12: I've got thirty two employees and this went out and
Speaker 12: I've actually made complaints to the city, and not one
Speaker 12: person from city Hall has reached out to me when
Speaker 12: it comes to my business moving out of this city.
Speaker 12: And I'm just sitting there realizing these people don't give
Speaker 12: a darn about any of these businesses, leaving about the
Speaker 12: safety of these this goal that's in Cincinnati, of our
Speaker 12: small businesses, of even the industry that could come to Cincinnati,
Speaker 12: or the potential that we have, they don't care. And
Speaker 12: so that's what is ended up happening, is that these
Speaker 12: people just say, Hey, if you're going to ignore me,
Speaker 12: if you're not going to respond to my complaints, then
Speaker 12: I'm out of here.
Speaker 4: Well, on some level, it doesn't shock me they didn't
Speaker 4: reach out to them. My understanding is Holly, the woman
Speaker 4: who was you know who knocked out cole Cock with
Speaker 4: the sucker punch, no one reached out to her either.
Speaker 17: Yeah.
Speaker 12: Yeah, And there's there's real issues and real victims in
Speaker 12: our city that are not being reached out to. You know,
Speaker 12: how about the woman that was shot last night, how
Speaker 12: about the lady that was shot I believe it was
Speaker 12: just a week ago in OTR just an innocent bystander,
Speaker 12: a mother of five.
Speaker 19: And I wonder who in the.
Speaker 12: City has reached out to her, and so we've got
Speaker 12: to realize that these are real people, these are real circumstances.
Speaker 19: And that's why we're running this race. And I'm not
Speaker 19: running this race because I think that.
Speaker 12: All Cincinnati is just the trash city and that we
Speaker 12: just need to bash it on national media. No, I'm
Speaker 12: running this race because we love this city.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 12: The Reds game last night, and there is no greater
Speaker 12: city in my mind or has the most or has
Speaker 12: as much potential as the city of Cincinnati. The culture,
Speaker 12: the sports, the broadcasting, the history behind it. We have
Speaker 12: so much potential and that potential is being squandered right
Speaker 12: now because of poor leadership.

Speaker 4: team said hi at five one three five ninety eight
Speaker 4: ninety three. That's five two one ninety eight ninety three.
Speaker 2: Fifty five KRC.
Speaker 1: Our iHeart Hey twenty it's about KRC detalk station.
Speaker 4: Indulge me for a moment cory of moment before we
Speaker 4: turn over and find out what this uh, this common
Speaker 4: sense ticket he's got lined up is. Apologies to Signal
Speaker 4: ninety nine. I described Signal ninety nine as a guy.
Speaker 4: It's a I guess active or current police officer from
Speaker 4: what I've led to believe. But Signal ninety nine is
Speaker 4: her Facebook pose, and I said his says there, We're
Speaker 4: flatter you off and read or I refer to posts
Speaker 4: on your page. As much as we love your show,
Speaker 4: I must spank you like a rebellious toddler for telling
Speaker 4: the world that I was a guy yesterday morning. I'm
Speaker 4: the nicest, sweetest, both thoughtful and caring, yet ruthlessly savage
Speaker 4: and feral female you've never known. Consider buying me a
Speaker 4: no phone is mine caught on fire yesterday when literally
Speaker 4: hundreds of people either called or email texted or messaged
Speaker 4: me at almost the same time after your little blunder,
Speaker 4: Thank goodness, my homies at the CFD put the fire
Speaker 4: in my pocket out before it was I was engulfed
Speaker 4: in flames have a lovely day until my future mayor
Speaker 4: Corey Bowman, I said to have a fantastic show with
Speaker 4: you today at seven thirty. Thank you at apologies signal
Speaker 4: ninety nine. Although you should follow her on Facebook. That's great,
Speaker 4: that is great. Appreciate Eric you forwarding that on to me. No,
Speaker 4: I had not seen that, Corey Bowman. Let's move over.
Speaker 4: We got an election coming up November. You have a choice.
Speaker 4: You have Corey Bowman as an option for mayor. Good choice.
Speaker 4: But what was your reaction to Christopher Smith and throwing
Speaker 4: his hat in the ring And by the way, Jim
Speaker 4: and Jackson on the River opens at eleven, get over
Speaker 4: there and sign the petition to get Christopher on the ballot.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Corey.
Speaker 12: I was very ecstatic to hear that news, to be
Speaker 12: honest with you, because and that's not something that we
Speaker 12: have previously discussed, but about it was in the beginning
Speaker 12: of April. Was the first time I ever met Christopher
Speaker 12: and me and him just you know, spoke, and I
Speaker 12: was able to kind of see that this is a
Speaker 12: man that is very intelligent, has an amazing heart for
Speaker 12: the city, has knowledge of how the city operates, clearly
Speaker 12: not just how politics operates. And that was refreshing to
Speaker 12: me because a lot of people surrounded me at the beginning.
Speaker 12: They're trying to make me this candidate, but they weren't
Speaker 12: really knowing how the city government works and what the
Speaker 12: city really needs. And so this is a man that
Speaker 12: truly cares about the city. And yeah, I can't stress
Speaker 12: that enough. If anybody is in the I don't care you
Speaker 12: know where you are in the city, I don't care
Speaker 12: if you're on the very east of the East. You
Speaker 12: need to get to Jim and Jackson. You need to
Speaker 12: sign that petition during their operating hours to get Christopher
Speaker 12: smithm in on the ballot for city council. And I
Speaker 12: believe he did an event with also Steve Gooden the
Speaker 12: other night as well.
Speaker 4: I was just going to bring Steve Gooden up. Now,
Speaker 4: let's note this, because you're talking about this common sense ticket.
Speaker 4: There aren't a whole lot of Republicans or running. Christoph's
Speaker 4: running and is independent. Steve Gooden's running as a charter
Speaker 4: right candidate. Ye, both of them have the experience we
Speaker 4: need for the job and are demonstrably logical reasonabill have
Speaker 4: a lot of common sense. So there's two guys right there. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you're not voting Republican. You know, you're voting for quality candidates.
Speaker 19: We have quality candidates, you know.
Speaker 12: And you know, my biggest task right now is getting
Speaker 12: the word out that I am the best candidate for
Speaker 12: mayor of Cincinnati. A big part of that is that
Speaker 12: have the capacity to learn to understand. I have the
Speaker 12: ability to actually see the situation what the city actually needs,
Speaker 12: rather than using as a stepping stool to get to
Speaker 12: d C or to get to a higher profile. I
Speaker 12: truly care about the democratic process of this city. I
Speaker 12: care about what is going on in our city government
Speaker 12: and when it comes to safety. And I've said it
Speaker 12: from the very beginning that this is going to be
Speaker 12: on city issues, common sense issues, clean streets, safe streets,
Speaker 12: prosperous streets, and that's what we need to run on.
Speaker 12: We have amazing candidates. So you have Linda Matthews that's
Speaker 12: running as a Republican for city council. She's an amazing woman.
Speaker 12: She's got experience in not only politics but in government
Speaker 12: as well, and she'll be able to bring amazing things
Speaker 12: to the table. And then just these aren't necessarily official
Speaker 12: endorsements you know, because I know how all that works.
Speaker 12: We want to wait for all the names to come in.
Speaker 12: But I am calling a common sense ticket. And if
Speaker 12: there's anybody that has common sense, it's Christopher Smitherman. When
Speaker 12: it comes to the actual knowledge of how the city operates.
Speaker 12: You've got great names like Steve Gooden that's running from
Speaker 12: the Charter right, like you said, which has a long
Speaker 12: history in Cincinnati, and that history is based on city
Speaker 12: issues and common sense, not diving into national politics. Well,
Speaker 12: then you have other names like Gary Favors, you have
Speaker 12: Brandon Nixon, you have other people Kevin Farmer who you've
Speaker 12: had on your show. And like I said, these aren't
Speaker 12: necessarily endorsements. This is me encouraging people do your research.
Speaker 12: You have one on one conversations with these people, because
Speaker 12: I promise you they will have those conversations with you.
Speaker 12: They will let you know their policies, and then you
Speaker 12: can actually go to the polls knowing that you are
Speaker 12: not just voting for a political ticket. You're not voting
Speaker 12: for a political party. You're voting for common sense to
Speaker 12: come back to city Hall.
Speaker 4: You know, I would love to see you know, there's
Speaker 4: a pink slip there's a blue slip the endorsed candidates
Speaker 4: from the parties. I'd like to see a common sense
Speaker 4: ticket slip. Yeah, common sense ticket you smitheming and good anyway,
Speaker 4: Corey Bowman, I appreciate the hour that you spent with
Speaker 4: my listeners of me today. I wish you all the best,
Speaker 4: and again we'll strongly encourage my listeners to give you
Speaker 4: a hand in any way they can by going to
Speaker 4: Coreybowman dot com.
Speaker 1: Corey will do this again, I hope, so.
Speaker 19: Yeah, absolutely, thank you Brian for having me.

Speaker 1: A thirty on a Friday Eve.
Speaker 4: You've always looked forward to this moment in time you
Speaker 4: get to hear from iHeart Needy aviation expert Jay rat
Speaker 4: Lift Jay, Welcome back to the Morning show, my friend.
Speaker 4: I always love having you on the show.
Speaker 17: A very very pleasant good morning, my friend, Thanks sir.
Speaker 4: In a mixed bag of topic, so we're going to
Speaker 4: start with Southwest Airlines. What is all of size policy.
Speaker 17: They have a policy in place. They rolled this out
Speaker 17: a number of years ago where there was a lot
Speaker 17: of things that were taking place with regards to people
Speaker 17: that were large enough that they required two seats. Yeah,
Speaker 17: and the thought thought is do we charge them? Do
Speaker 17: we not? The industry standard is basically, if you need
Speaker 17: two seats, we're gonna have to charge.
Speaker 1: You for two seats.
Speaker 17: Well, there was a time when they would charge you
Speaker 17: a full fare and then fifty percent for the second seat.
Speaker 17: But with the flights being pulled, they've kind of gotten
Speaker 17: away with away from that. But you know, as part
Speaker 17: of Southwest Airlines cost cutting measures, and Southwest Airlines had
Speaker 17: a policy that said you could actually request a refund
Speaker 17: on that second seat if by the time the flight
Speaker 17: leaves there's at least one empty seat on the aircraft. Okay,
Speaker 17: so you would buy two seats and if you would
Speaker 17: request a refund. Well, now they've kind of trimmed that back, saying, well,
Speaker 17: we used to pre board you, We're not going to
Speaker 17: do that. Now you're gonna have to wait at the
Speaker 17: gate to see if the flight's going to be filled.
Speaker 17: Then you've got less than ninety days after the travel
Speaker 17: date to request the refund, which used to be considerably
Speaker 17: longer than that. So Southwest Airlines is slowly shifting to
Speaker 17: where the policies for other airlines, and they're going to
Speaker 17: continue this progression, I believe, until they're back to the
Speaker 17: point where if you need two seats, you're gonna have
Speaker 17: to pay for two seats. So it's gonna be interesting
Speaker 17: to see as we progress how fast it'll take Southwest
Speaker 17: to get there. But look, charging for check luggage, assigned
Speaker 17: to seats, premium seating, all of these things are you know,
Speaker 17: putting Southwest in line with how other carriers do things.
Speaker 17: And this, this, you know, customer of size policy is
Speaker 17: going to be something that's just going to continue to
Speaker 17: be the case.
Speaker 4: How about that, well, you know, honestly, it makes perfect sense.
Speaker 4: You've got to pay for the second seat, Jay, I mean,
Speaker 4: come on, you're depriving the airline of a revenue source.
Speaker 4: And I get the idea that if there's at least
Speaker 4: one seat open when the plane takes off, that well,
Speaker 4: refund might be in order. But you got to get
Speaker 4: to that point. You've been talking for hell a couple
Speaker 4: of years about how packed the flights have been. They
Speaker 4: over sell them on purpose to make sure they're full.
Speaker 4: So you know, sorry they.
Speaker 17: Do that because yeah, they do it because you know,
Speaker 17: we don't cancel our reservations and it's a perishable product.
Speaker 17: The minute we shut that door, they've lost the opportunity
Speaker 17: for revenue. So I'm totally okay if they base the
Speaker 17: overbooking on historical data where every the first Tuesday of
Speaker 17: the month we have eight percent in those shows, we'll
Speaker 17: overbook it to eight percent. You know, those types of things,
Speaker 17: I'm totally okay with. And during the holidays they overbook
Speaker 17: less because they most people are going to show up.
Speaker 17: But I've had to have those conversations with passengers explaining
Speaker 17: to them that because of their size, they would be
Speaker 17: more comfortable in a seat that would be best accommodate them. Mean,
Speaker 17: I would always say, you know, your big bone structure
Speaker 17: is such that these seats are getting smaller, smaller. It's
Speaker 17: difficult for anybody to be comfortable on and you know, sadly,
Speaker 17: you know it's going to require you purchasing two seats
Speaker 17: just so that you have enough enough room, and we'll
Speaker 17: do everything we can to accommodate you. But a lot
Speaker 17: of people don't want to spend that extra money. Some
Speaker 17: people feel like you should not penalize me because of
Speaker 17: my size by charging me double. And I've had those
Speaker 17: conversations where people say, you know, you're being discriminatory because
Speaker 17: of my size, and sadly, no, it's a saint issue.
Speaker 17: We can't put you in one seat, it's going to
Speaker 17: take two. And yes, we have to keep the other
Speaker 17: customers in mind as we make these policies. It's a
Speaker 17: very delicate conversation obviously that you're having, but they have
Speaker 17: to be made. And you're not telling anybody this person
Speaker 17: anything they don't know already. So you know, some people
Speaker 17: are just trying to get out of paying for that
Speaker 17: second seat, and they'll say anything they can to try
Speaker 17: to get away with it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can imagine, because it's an expense. But honestly,
Speaker 4: the reason I mean, one of the reasons that you know,
Speaker 4: you should have to pay for it, and the number
Speaker 4: of seats that are on the airplane, that volume of
Speaker 4: travelers allows them to keep the airfare lower and therefore
Speaker 4: you can afford to go on because the number of
Speaker 4: people that are providing the airline with profit, you know.
Speaker 17: Yes, I mean, And there have been people in Washington,
Speaker 17: DC who said, because we're all getting bigger in size
Speaker 17: and because the seats are getting smaller, we should do
Speaker 17: a study to show how long it takes all of
Speaker 17: us rather large people to get off the plane quickly. Yeah,
Speaker 17: because if we don't get them off in ninety seconds,
Speaker 17: that means the airlines are putting too many seats on
Speaker 17: the plane, and we can force them to make the
Speaker 17: seats bigger. Never gonna happen, never, never, never, never going
Speaker 17: to happen. But that's the avenue they try to take.
Speaker 17: That exit ram is not going to work.
Speaker 4: I promise you heard it from Jay Ratliff here the
Speaker 4: fifty five Charisee Morning Show. Never gonna happen eight thirty five.
Speaker 4: Right now, we've got more with Jay coming up. They'll
Speaker 4: go away fifty sives the talk station Cyber attacks and cyber.
Speaker 1: Jay Ratif has.
Speaker 4: He's high hearted media aviation expert and he's on the
Speaker 4: TI five Charrisey Morning Show every Thursday, beginning at a
Speaker 4: thirty segment number two, Jay, right, lift, my friend, are
Speaker 4: you serious? A passenger smoked marijuana on the plane before departure?
Speaker 4: What kind of moron is this guy?
Speaker 17: Well, it was a United flight. I think they were
Speaker 17: coming out of Cancun. They're in the boarding process, the
Speaker 17: passengers in the forward laboratory up near the boarding door
Speaker 17: and also next to the cockpit. The flight crews in there,
Speaker 17: the pilots going through their pre flight briefing, going through
Speaker 17: everything that they need to go through before departure, and
Speaker 17: this somebody's just smoking away marijuana in that forward lavatory.
Speaker 17: Well they leave, and of course that secondhand smoke goes
Speaker 17: where everywhere, including into the cockpit. So the pilot comes
Speaker 17: on board and says, look, we had somebody smoking at
Speaker 17: marijuana in the ford lavatory, and we're not going to
Speaker 17: be flying this flight, because he said, I've got a
Speaker 17: long career with the United Airlines that I want to
Speaker 17: keep having and if I'm drug testing when we get
Speaker 17: to Houston on our arrival, I could fail that based
Speaker 17: on the second hand smoke that I was exposed to.
Speaker 17: And he says, I'm not taking that chance, and the
Speaker 17: crew refused to fly. So it was it was more
Speaker 17: a not necessarily an issue of safety, because I don't
Speaker 17: feel like they were impaired in any way, But frequently
Speaker 17: for the airline and the FAA, they're pulled off of
Speaker 17: a flight and they're administered random drug tests and if
Speaker 17: he were to fail it, and his response was somebody
Speaker 17: was smoking marijuana in the laboratory. That be like, oh right,
Speaker 17: and it puts his career in jeopardy. And he says,
Speaker 17: I'm simply not going to do that based on the
Speaker 17: actions of one person. So again we have one person
Speaker 17: doing something they shouldn't be doing and the impacting not
Speaker 17: only that flight, that flight's going to Houston to make
Speaker 17: up another flight going to somewhere else. Now you've impacted
Speaker 17: multiple flights simply by the actions that you've had. And yeah,
Speaker 17: it was unfortunate, and had it been a different life,
Speaker 17: avatory probably wouldn't have gone this way. But but the
Speaker 17: you know, the captain or first officer, I don't know
Speaker 17: which one it was. I suspect it was the first officer,
Speaker 17: but the captain probably went along with it, simply wasn't
Speaker 17: wanting to take that chance.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 4: And ne Coolie, what the hell you're doing smoking weed
Speaker 4: inside the airplane lavatory? I mean, even when it's on
Speaker 4: the ground. You're not allowed to smoke on an airplane,
Speaker 4: are you.
Speaker 17: Jay, You're not supposed to know And this guy might
Speaker 17: have thought, or gir out of who it was probably thought, well,
Speaker 17: it's okay to do it before I leave. You know,
Speaker 17: some people are scared to death to fly, So the
Speaker 17: thought is, what can I do to relax edible, settle
Speaker 17: down before my flight?
Speaker 1: You know, eat edible.
Speaker 4: You know, there are other ways something, other ways to
Speaker 4: get THC in your body without firing one up on
Speaker 4: a plane.
Speaker 17: For some people it's a it's a glass of wine
Speaker 17: or alcohol of some kind. But yeah, in this situation,
Speaker 17: it was just you know, you know, this is what
Speaker 17: the captain or the first officer made the call on.
Speaker 17: And I can't blame you know, the crew for being
Speaker 17: concerned because you know, there are times when airlines, especially
Speaker 17: when they're cutting back and United not doing that now,
Speaker 17: but if they're looking for excuses to get rid of people,
Speaker 17: you don't want to give them one. Corporate America's corporate America.
Speaker 17: So I'm telling you, and I can tell you this,
Speaker 17: the last thing I would want to do is to
Speaker 17: give my employer, you know, a reason to dismiss me
Speaker 17: right uh with with with ground And I just know
Speaker 17: that that kind of that kind of cause I don't
Speaker 17: want to give put in their hands for sure, so
Speaker 17: I was not against the decision, although I did feel
Speaker 17: for all the passengers.
Speaker 4: On board, oh absolutely, without question on that one choose Lorazapam. Anyway,
Speaker 4: Spirit Airlines got a problem on its hand in terms
Speaker 4: of cash flow.
Speaker 1: What's going on in this one, Jay Ratlis.
Speaker 17: They just came out of bankruptcy in March, and they
Speaker 17: went through the Chapter eleven bankruptcy, reorganization, leaner and meaner,
Speaker 17: the debt reconsolidation, all of that being done. But this
Speaker 17: week they announced, you know, I don't think we've got
Speaker 17: but maybe a year's worth of cash left, and we've
Speaker 17: got to do something. And it was an announcement to
Speaker 17: their investors, let them know what was going on, as
Speaker 17: they were trying to be as transparent as they could,
Speaker 17: which was was the good call, the right thing to do.
Speaker 17: But of course Southward excuse me, Spirit. It was back
Speaker 17: in February twenty two, I believe that the merger with
Speaker 17: Frontier was announced and they were on that path until
Speaker 17: Jet Blue stepped in and said, we'll give you more money,
Speaker 17: and that's when again they pushed Frontier to the side,
Speaker 17: went with Jet Blue for a year and a half
Speaker 17: till it was decided that merger wasn't going to be approved,
Speaker 17: and then Spirit went back to Frontier, who said no,
Speaker 17: thank you, and so they're kind of out there on
Speaker 17: their own. They've made a series of unfortunate decisions from
Speaker 17: a management standpoint that's put them in this process. Now
Speaker 17: they've gone to premium seats and trying to do things
Speaker 17: that are going to make them more profitable. But Brian All,
Speaker 17: this is coming at a time when we're seeing a
Speaker 17: slight reduction in the demand for leisure travel. So they've
Speaker 17: got all kinds of headwind here and it's really creating
Speaker 17: some issues. So you know, they're telling their investors, and
Speaker 17: obviously their stock dropped like fifty percent when that announcement
Speaker 17: came out because a lot of people said, you know,
Speaker 17: there's a chance that they're going to go to business. Now.
Speaker 17: There's a lot of people that listen to us across
Speaker 17: the country, and many of them have reservations future reservations
Speaker 17: on Spirit. I would not be panicked at this point
Speaker 17: if I'm flying over the holidays or certainly beginning of
Speaker 17: next year. Now, obviously they're going to continue to kind
Speaker 17: of reduce their footprint from the standpoint of a flight
Speaker 17: schedule point, so you may see future flights that are changed,
Speaker 17: could be canceled, all these kinds of things that may
Speaker 17: or may not happen. If I'm making a future reservation
Speaker 17: down the road on Spirit, I would be concerned because
Speaker 17: you just don't know what's going to happen. And with
Speaker 17: those kinds of unknowns, not only are you worried about
Speaker 17: the airline but the employees, because the message that sends
Speaker 17: to the employees is, you know, we don't know if
Speaker 17: we can pay in a year, right, So okay, if
Speaker 17: I'm a pilot, if I'm a mechanic, if I'm a
Speaker 17: flight attendant, exactly, so what kind of operational impact will
Speaker 17: it have when they start losing employees. So you've got
Speaker 17: all kinds of moving parts here. And fortunately not of
Speaker 17: this news is good for either Spirit employees or investors
Speaker 17: or passengers. And it's really unfortunate that they didn't merge
Speaker 17: with Frontier. When that news came out three years ago,
Speaker 17: I said, this is perfect. Their route maps complement each
Speaker 17: other perfectly. This is going to make him a mini
Speaker 17: mega low cost carrier juggernaut, and it's really going to
Speaker 17: be a good combination. But they blew it when they
Speaker 17: went with Spirit because or with Jet Blue because they
Speaker 17: thought Jet Blue would pay more money. But their route
Speaker 17: maps were not consistent. They didn't compliment each other. A
Speaker 17: lot of cities and jobs are going to be lost
Speaker 17: in the process, and the governments said no, this is
Speaker 17: not best for the consumer, and they said no to it. Well,
Speaker 17: they'd have called you. You were me. We got told
Speaker 17: me what wasn't going to work for that very reason,
Speaker 17: But for some strange reason they didn't call me.
Speaker 4: Well, not me, but definitely I heard me. The avia
Speaker 4: snags very jay ratl if. We will bring back talk
Speaker 4: about Spirit Airlines, or rather Southwest Airlines having to issue
Speaker 4: an apology plus a new power charging device edict on
Speaker 4: Emirates plus hub delays. We'll do that next fifty five
Speaker 4: KRC dot com Summer is here. Here's your final look
Speaker 4: at the Channel nine weather forecast. Sunny skyes today, just
Speaker 4: a slight chance of afternoon storms threty e to be
Speaker 4: r high TOI ME sticky and muggy overnight down to
Speaker 4: sixty eight. Another hot, sticky day tomorrow with the tiny
Speaker 4: chance of raine eighty nine for the high seventy overnight
Speaker 4: again Muggy and Sticky and Saturday of the Muggy Sticky
Speaker 4: Days ninety one for the high closing.
Speaker 1: Out at seventy three. Time for that final travel I
Speaker 1: got day Chuck from the UCL Traffic Center.
Speaker 7: The u see Health Backdenkin's Fine Center offers innovative treatments
Speaker 7: to improve quality of life with convenient locations across Greater
Speaker 7: Cincinnati and northern Kentucky. Learn more at you see health
Speaker 7: dot com. Cruise continue to work with an accident. He's
Speaker 7: been Fort Washington Way in the center lane. That's adding
Speaker 7: to the delays on northbound seventy five for an extra
Speaker 7: fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1: From Donaldson northbound four to seventy one.
Speaker 7: Starting to clear out a bit from Grand Chuck Ingram
Speaker 7: on fifty five kr SE the talk.
Speaker 1: Station on a Friday, even a happy one.
Speaker 4: So you closing out another segment here with irot Me
Speaker 4: aviation expert Jay right Southwest Airlines issuing an apology. Sounds
Speaker 4: like one was well well deserved apology. What happened here
Speaker 4: with this one?
Speaker 17: Jay had two passengers that were flying from New Orleans
Speaker 17: to Orlando. The two women were blind. They were taken
Speaker 17: to the gate of departure flight was delayed, delayed so
Speaker 17: much that Southwestern New Orleans had to move the gate.
Speaker 17: They had a gate change, which happens.
Speaker 4: No, I mean, go ahead. I'm sorry, Yeah, I can
Speaker 4: see this as usual.
Speaker 17: You're several steps ahead. I mean, you're exactly right. They
Speaker 17: did not make an announce what they put on the
Speaker 17: departure board that there was a schedule change. Obviously, if
Speaker 17: you're visually impaired, you're not going to see that exactly.
Speaker 17: They sat there, sat there, set there. The original flight
Speaker 17: was delayed almost five hours. It eventually leaves without these
Speaker 17: two women. They're still in the gate area. Somebody finally discovers, Oops,
Speaker 17: you know these women are here. Oops. They were to
Speaker 17: be on that flight, and oh no, we didn't put
Speaker 17: them on there. So what happened was they put them
Speaker 17: on a later flight. They apologized. I put that in
Speaker 17: quotes because it was one hundred dollars voucher each. They
Speaker 17: got them to their destination. And of course the story
Speaker 17: explodes over social media, as it should have, because Southwest
Speaker 17: dropped the ball right. Anytime we had someone with any
Speaker 17: sort of a special need, we had what was called
Speaker 17: a special service request. It's an SSR. Let's the ticket
Speaker 17: counter know what's going on the gate as well as
Speaker 17: the lead flight attendant. Everybody's on the same page as
Speaker 17: what the specific needs are for that specific passenger. So
Speaker 17: either there was not a special service report generated that
Speaker 17: would have notified everybody what was going on, or they
Speaker 17: were notified and just dropped the ball. But look, if
Speaker 17: you and I are working a flight, one hundred and
Speaker 17: fifty people are checked in, we get the airplane loaded,
Speaker 17: there's one hundred and forty eight. It does not take
Speaker 17: any time at all for us to see, okay, our
Speaker 17: party of two because a lot of times they'll page
Speaker 17: them through the airport. So and so, socially, your flight's
Speaker 17: preparing to leave. We needed you to get to blah
Speaker 17: blah blah, and in that you would see that they
Speaker 17: were visually impaired. Everything would stop. You would go and
Speaker 17: find those individuals. The ball was dropped here at so
Speaker 17: many different spots where they could have saved the day
Speaker 17: and didn't. Yes, you know, that's one of the reasons
Speaker 17: it's really embarrassing for Southwest. And they said, you know,
Speaker 17: they were asked about refunding the money. They said, well,
Speaker 17: you know, we really don't need to because you paid
Speaker 17: for us to get you from New Orleans to Orlando,
Speaker 17: and we did that. You know, just you know, sometimes
Speaker 17: the being counters and the policies they put in place
Speaker 17: are absolutely as nine when it comes to how you're
Speaker 17: supposed to take care of people, and had they simply
Speaker 17: done what was right and done something beyond I'm not
Speaker 17: talking about free flights for life, you know, idiotic like that,
Speaker 17: but just something that would be a little bit more
Speaker 17: compassionate from the standpoint of what you put these people through.
Speaker 17: And you know, the airline's mind is, look, they paid,
Speaker 17: we got them there a little bit later, but no
Speaker 17: big deal. Yeah, very big deal. Because you didn't do
Speaker 17: what you should have.
Speaker 4: Done exactly, and you do it right. You get a
Speaker 4: lot of goodwill from that. People respond by saying, well,
Speaker 4: what a wonderful company to handle that matter.
Speaker 1: Great, Well it is.
Speaker 17: And look, there were times that I was working a
Speaker 17: flight and we would have a passenger that was blind
Speaker 17: on an incoming flight, that was on the wrong flight.
Speaker 17: I mean, we had a fourteen years We had a
Speaker 17: fourteen year old girl that was on a flight Orlando
Speaker 17: to day and she arrives she's supposed to be going
Speaker 17: to Omaha.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 17: You know, you know, you've got to get a hold
Speaker 17: of the parents and let them know she's okay, and
Speaker 17: all this kind of stuff. And then a lot of
Speaker 17: times you'll throw an agent on the plane with them
Speaker 17: to take them back to Orlando and to make sure
Speaker 17: they get on these I mean, you're doing all kinds
Speaker 17: of things to apologize, but to kind of shrug your
Speaker 17: shoulders is apparently Southwest Airlines did here. No, not what
Speaker 17: you should have.
Speaker 4: Done, all right, Emirates restricting the use of power chargers.
Speaker 4: Do this have anything to do with lithium ion batteries or
Speaker 4: we move them past that?
Speaker 17: Oh, it has everything to do with that. They're saying
Speaker 17: as of October first, when you bring a battery charger
Speaker 17: on board the flight, A, you're not allowed to use it.
Speaker 17: B You're not allowed to put it in the overhead
Speaker 17: storage compartment. It has to fit in a bag and
Speaker 17: put underneath the seat in front of you so that
Speaker 17: if it starts overheat, we can know about it soon
Speaker 17: and then the flight attendants can then become firefighters and
Speaker 17: put out the fire. If it's in the overhead storage compartment,
Speaker 17: can't do it. We don't want you using it. On
Speaker 17: board the flight because of what takes place, and I
Speaker 17: think it was air bousan busa n You can do
Speaker 17: a Google image search on that and you can see
Speaker 17: what was left of the airplane after a lithium battery
Speaker 17: fire broke out and at the gate, thank god, and
Speaker 17: burn the entire top of the airplane off. Oh my lord.
Speaker 17: The FAA has said, I think we've had round numbers here,
Speaker 17: maybe off a bit. Forty four instances this year of
Speaker 17: lithium battery issues. Last year was eighty.
Speaker 1: Some.
Speaker 17: These are situations that broke out on the plane and
Speaker 17: they're increasing in number, and we know it's an issue.
Speaker 17: Airlines are waiting for some sort of industry decision. It's
Speaker 17: not being made. So we're seeing Emirates and we're seeing
Speaker 17: a lot of other airlines around the world, including here
Speaker 17: in the United States, take precautions saying we've got to
Speaker 17: restrict these in one fashion or another because they're bringing
Speaker 17: on electronic devices that are powered by these lithium batteries
Speaker 17: and it's creating problems. But Brian, the biggest issue we've
Speaker 17: talked about this is people in the gate area that
Speaker 17: are encouraged to give up their check luggage and a
Speaker 17: lot of times the gate agent as they quickly take it.
Speaker 17: And there's a lot of things going on. Jivinty items
Speaker 17: in here, electronic No, I don't have anything in there,
Speaker 17: and off it goes a toothbrush. It can be several
Speaker 17: different things that are powered by a lithium battery that
Speaker 17: breaks out in a fire in the whole cargo compartment
Speaker 17: right now. There are fire suppression systems on these aircraft,
Speaker 17: but the lithium battery fires burn so hot they can't
Speaker 17: adequately put out the fire. So this is a big, big, big, big.
Speaker 4: Problems life and death level right there.
Speaker 17: But we're not acting like it though. And you know
Speaker 17: what it's going to take is something happening before something
Speaker 17: is done, and there's no way it should go that far.
Speaker 4: That's too much of a risk to let that happen.
Speaker 4: Jay Rattler in the remaining moments short abbreviated hub delay.
Speaker 17: Please charlotte it And look, I'm really reaching. If I
Speaker 17: was paid for hub delay, I'd be hurting today because
Speaker 17: I think delays might be fifteen minutes there, and other
Speaker 17: than that, I think it's gonna be the best day
Speaker 17: of the week to fly.
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time.
Speaker 4: Today, Jay Rattler, very interesting as always, I enjoy our exchange.
Speaker 4: I'll look forward to next Thursday and another aviation report.
Speaker 4: Have a great week, my friend. Thank you eight fifty
