Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: Hurricane Helene was not a huge, well, I shouldn't say huge.
Speaker 2: Was not the biggest problem in Florida. It wasn't even
Speaker 2: necessarily in Georgia, although it did hit and destroy some
Speaker 2: homes in Georgia. Western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee are
Speaker 2: the places that were absolutely inundated by what was Helene
Speaker 2: as it made its way through at the end of
Speaker 2: last week.
Speaker 3: Food and water is essentially run out unless people can
Speaker 3: get to some of these aid groups that have set
Speaker 3: up makeshift stations. But beyond that, we are in a
Speaker 3: very bad situation that continues to be fluid, and good
Speaker 3: news is not come yet as of now here.
Speaker 2: On mondays Fox Weather reporter Robert Ray, who's there in
Speaker 2: North Carolina Asheville, North Carolina specifically is an area that
Speaker 2: was very hard hit and the county, I think it's
Speaker 2: Beauchamp County. They're in western North Carolina. They said there
Speaker 2: could be a thousand people missing. Part of the problem
Speaker 2: is sell services out in the area, so you can't
Speaker 2: call loved ones or friends, et cetera, to find out
Speaker 2: how everybody's doing now. Just south of there, Governor Brian
Speaker 2: Kemp in Georgia said he toured the destructive the destruction
Speaker 2: zone in his state via helicopter.
Speaker 4: Literally, this hurricane, it looks like a two hundred and
Speaker 4: fifty mile wide tornado has hit. The pain is unusual
Speaker 4: about the storm is unprecedented for a cat too hurricane
Speaker 4: to actually make landfall in Georgia. And to see the
Speaker 4: level of a destruction that a hurricane could do in
Speaker 4: this community. Being this far from Lounge County or Eccles
Speaker 4: County in the Florida line is unprecedented.
Speaker 5: I want to so no power, no food, and they
Speaker 5: can't get out.
Speaker 1: No functioning roads in many places the roads have been
Speaker 1: completely washed out or broken up, collapsed at times. Just
Speaker 1: in Boone, north of Boone, where I just was watching
Speaker 1: the app state game, their game was canceled Saturday night.
Speaker 5: It is rivers. The roads are rivers.
Speaker 1: A mother of two pregnant by the way, Jennifer, says
Speaker 1: she's completely trapped in her home right above Boone. There
Speaker 1: severe flooding from tropical storms not the norm. She says,
Speaker 1: we were not prepared for this. The roads are gone,
Speaker 1: like completely gone, just stuck without power, without food, and
Speaker 1: you're stuck with your kids and you're I mean, how terrifying.
Speaker 2: A lot of people have said that they don't see
Speaker 2: any FEMA representatives anywhere near.
Speaker 5: They can't get in.
Speaker 2: The part of it is that they can't get in.
Speaker 2: President Biden gave an address just a short time ago
Speaker 2: from the White House. I have a warning, he coughs,
Speaker 2: right in the middle of it, right on the microphone.
Speaker 6: As President, I've seen firsthand the devastating toll so disasters
Speaker 6: like this take on families and communities. I went on
Speaker 6: the ground many disasters are since I've been president. Man,
Speaker 6: I've heard stories from survivors.
Speaker 5: This is the handleshoff it feels to be.
Speaker 6: Left with nothing, not even knowing where when you're back
Speaker 6: on track. I'm here to tell every single survivor and
Speaker 6: these impacted area is that we will be there with
Speaker 6: you as long as it takes. I seek you yourself,
Speaker 6: excuse me.
Speaker 1: He then on SNL did a really good job of
Speaker 1: capturing what we have seen with our own eyes. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: this is a man playing out the winter of his
Speaker 1: life in front of the world, and it's unfortunate. Would
Speaker 1: you put me away in a couple of years and
Speaker 1: just not let anyone hear from me?
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, if you cough that loud directly
Speaker 2: into the microphone, I don't.
Speaker 7: You've not done that. You sneeze.
Speaker 1: But that's as unexpected, unexpected little surprises.
Speaker 7: Stick up on you.
Speaker 2: The death toll from Hurricane Helene and the storms that resulted,
Speaker 2: the death tolls up over one hundred and ten is
Speaker 2: the last I saw in The New York Times says
Speaker 2: it's over one hundred and ten.
Speaker 7: It's going to get a whole lot worse right now.
Speaker 2: I believe this is now the fourth deadliest hurricane that
Speaker 2: we have seen in the last fifty years. Obviously, Hurricane
Speaker 2: Katrina was number one with eighteen hundred plus fatalities. Hurricane
Speaker 2: Ian cost one hundred and fifty direct and indirect fatalities.
Speaker 2: But there's a chance that Helene could go above that
Speaker 2: in terms of the death toll.
Speaker 1: All right, coming up next, Israel says, Yeah, we're going
Speaker 1: to go in and do some ground operations in Lebanon.
Speaker 1: It's not going to be like two thousand and six,
Speaker 1: but it's going to be something we'll tell you what
Speaker 1: you need to know.
Speaker 8: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from kfi AM.
Speaker 1: Six forty Israeli special forces have begun carrying out small,
Speaker 1: targeted raids into southern Lebanon. They want to gather intelligence
Speaker 1: there is going to be an imminent broader ground incursion.
Speaker 5: They say it could come as soon as this week.
Speaker 1: They have included entering has tunnels located along the border.
Speaker 1: They were able to take out one of the leaders
Speaker 1: of Hesbalah over the weekend.
Speaker 2: They took out not they not only took out Hassan'sraala,
Speaker 2: they took out just about all of his I don't
Speaker 2: know what you'd call it, lietenant, cabinet lieutenants. I mean,
Speaker 2: the list of people that they have eliminated over the
Speaker 2: course of the last couple of days is very, very long.
Speaker 2: Benjamin at Yahoo. The Israeli Prime Minister has warned Iran
Speaker 2: that there was nowhere in the Middle East that is
Speaker 2: beyond his reach, beyond Israel's reach. He was speaking in
Speaker 2: English in this three minute video clip that was released
Speaker 2: by his office, in which he said that he was
Speaker 2: addressing directly the Iranian people, and he said there's nowhere
Speaker 2: that we cannot reach. There is nowhere we will not
Speaker 2: go to protect our people and protect our country. Once
Speaker 2: Sad Nosrala again, the head of it Hesblah was eliminated.
Speaker 2: Last week, the supreme leader in Iran went into hiding
Speaker 2: and went into oh crap mode hiding.
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, get a diaper on that fella, because he's
Speaker 2: going to be spending a lot of time papooing out
Speaker 2: of fear. Also, Israel went after the hoothy rebels in Yemen.
Speaker 2: They we also the United States and Israel did some
Speaker 2: air strikes targeted some areas in Syria. Of course, Israel
Speaker 2: has been striking Gaza. I mean, this is I know
Speaker 2: that there's a lot of speculation that this is going
Speaker 2: to turn into a wider war.
Speaker 7: How it's not already.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's just been a slow rollout, but
Speaker 1: it has escalated, it has expanded.
Speaker 5: I just don't know when, I mean.
Speaker 1: What classifies as a full out, full blown war. Is
Speaker 1: it iron officially coming in?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The Hesbla deputy chief, Sheikh name Kassam, today delivered a
Speaker 1: message of defiance in a public address. He said that
Speaker 1: we are ready, We are ready for any sort of
Speaker 1: ground incursion. He said that they're going to install a
Speaker 1: new leadership soon without any are There.
Speaker 7: Are a lot of guys raising their hand to like
Speaker 7: run in and.
Speaker 2: Go yeah, is there like a jedge.
Speaker 7: I'll put my name on that target.
Speaker 1: List, Gavin Newsom, who's ready to take control there.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 1: He also underlined the role of the United States today,
Speaker 1: calling them us a partner with Israel through unlimited military support, culturally, politically, financially,
Speaker 1: says we will win, just as we did with our
Speaker 1: confrontation with Israel in two thousand and six.
Speaker 2: There was a a couple of different videos that made
Speaker 2: their way around social media this weekend that were sort
Speaker 2: of tongue in cheek explaining why you shouldn't kill Jewish people.
Speaker 2: And it was basically the Israeli military air strike video,
Speaker 2: but from a ground level, somebody's recording and there's a
Speaker 2: couple of things. It's my point here, it's guys on
Speaker 2: the ground recording buildings that are about to be blown up.
Speaker 2: Part of the reason they know that that building is
Speaker 2: going about to be blown up is Israel often warns
Speaker 2: the people in a neighborhood or in a building specifically
Speaker 2: we know that you have rockets in there, or we
Speaker 2: know that you have Hesbala leadership in there. You have
Speaker 2: about an hour to get out of this building because
Speaker 2: we're going to put it on the ground in a
Speaker 2: giant pile of smoking rubble. Then you have a bunch
Speaker 2: of guys standing around two, three, four blocks away, all
Speaker 2: with their cameras trained on that building, so that when
Speaker 2: it does go, when somebody does drop a two thousand
Speaker 2: pound bomb into thing and it blows up, they've got
Speaker 2: the footage of it. For some reason, that's a thing
Speaker 2: that they do. And then I don't know if they
Speaker 2: think that they're going to use that as propaganda against
Speaker 2: the Israeli military, against Jews in general, against these Zionists,
Speaker 2: or however you want to put it. But they've been
Speaker 2: given warning a lot of times to get out of
Speaker 2: the way before those things actually happened. So they did
Speaker 2: strike an apartment building again today. They they damaged the structure,
Speaker 2: but they didn't collapse it. Videos showed ambulances and a
Speaker 2: crowd gathered near the building in this Sunni district with
Speaker 2: a busy thoroughfare that's lined with shops. The official with
Speaker 2: Lebanon Civil Defense had said earlier that a member of
Speaker 2: the Al jama Al Islamia was killed in the air
Speaker 2: strike that sixteen others were wounded, but the militant group,
Speaker 2: which does fight along Hesblah, has not confirmed the death
Speaker 2: of any of its members as of yet.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 1: Vice presidential historian Joel Goldstein says that two recent assess
Speaker 1: nation attempts against Trump raise the saliency of succession, implying
Speaker 1: that the vice presidential debate tomorrow night has more importance
Speaker 1: than vice presidential debates in the past, to which I say,
Speaker 1: that's what a vice presidential historian would say. This means nothing.
Speaker 1: It's ninety minutes, which is bloated. I'm still excited to
Speaker 1: watch it. I think it's gonna be a punching match,
Speaker 1: and I think I'm gonna be entertained. I'm not looking
Speaker 1: for substance. I'm looking for entertainment.
Speaker 7: Is also also.
Speaker 5: That's sad about my life and about America.
Speaker 2: I think I know something about you, and you wrote
Speaker 2: down that vice presidential historian's name, and you're going to
Speaker 2: invite him to your next party.
Speaker 5: No, I'm not, No, I am not.
Speaker 7: So what do you do, Bob Oh?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I'm glad you asked, does dan quail.
Speaker 7: Ring a bell?
Speaker 2: Perhaps Walter Mondale is more your speed, but tato.
Speaker 5: E no e, Gerald Ford, all right.
Speaker 1: Talk about that when we come back, Garyan Shannon will do.
Speaker 1: We've got a sex scandal on the way as well.
Speaker 2: Oh this, we're adding sex to a story that we've
Speaker 2: already talked about.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, okay, why not?
Speaker 8: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 8: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Kevin or Newsom assigned a bill into law that makes
Speaker 1: California the latest to ban college legacy and donor admissions,
Speaker 1: including USC and Stanford.
Speaker 5: Officially right, those phone calls will still get made.
Speaker 2: Longshoremen on the East End Gulf Coat golf coasts are
Speaker 2: likely to strike at about midnight their time, halting most
Speaker 2: activity at some of the busiest ports in the country.
Speaker 2: The walkout by members of the International long Shoreman's Association
Speaker 2: would cost the economy billions of dollars a day. President
Speaker 2: Biden could use a federal labor law to force them
Speaker 2: back to work, but as of yesterday, he has said
Speaker 2: he is not considering using that power.
Speaker 8: Well.
Speaker 1: Vice presidential picks traditionally are the the attack dog rolls
Speaker 1: right That means the people on the top of the
Speaker 1: ticket can just float above the political fray. They can
Speaker 1: be classy about their attacks, and the vice presidential picks
Speaker 1: can get down and dirty and sling all the mud.
Speaker 5: That's the way it was until Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 1: A guy by the name of Donald Trump entered the
Speaker 1: top of tickets and he has no problem slinging mud.
Speaker 1: In fact, he has been slinging more and more mud,
Speaker 1: calling Kamala Harris, what was it, mentally in unstable, something
Speaker 1: of this nature.
Speaker 2: I'll play for it, just really quickly, because this was
Speaker 2: from Saturday night.
Speaker 7: He was talking about Joe Biden.
Speaker 8: First, Joe Biden became mentally impaired, Kamala was born that way.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's tough when you when you hit a
Speaker 1: woman like that too. It does not I know he
Speaker 1: doesn't care, but it doesn't It doesn't get any points.
Speaker 5: I don't think so.
Speaker 1: Like I said this, Vice presidential historian Jel Goldstein says
Speaker 1: that because of the assassination attempts, that the saliency of
Speaker 1: succession has been raised that many voters do view vice
Speaker 1: presidential nominees as appendages of the candidates who selected them,
Speaker 1: not necessarily as potential future presidents themselves. He says, people
Speaker 1: do look at somebody as are they going to be
Speaker 1: a heartbeat away? Now, remember how much how much criticism
Speaker 1: it was talked about when Biden appeared to be exactly
Speaker 1: in the condition he's in, and it's this is a
Speaker 1: more important election because one heart beat away as Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris from running the country, and now because she's the nominee,
Speaker 1: that all went away.
Speaker 7: Yeah, nobody talks about it anymore.
Speaker 1: There are people terrified of the fact that he looks
Speaker 1: like he's on his way out and that she could
Speaker 1: assume the position there.
Speaker 2: I mean, you could argue, and I think there was
Speaker 2: a lot of debate. Yes, we make a lot of
Speaker 2: deal we being the media, and make a lot of
Speaker 2: hey out of who's going to be chosen as the
Speaker 2: running mate, because it says a lot more I think
Speaker 2: about who the presidential nominee is than it does add
Speaker 2: any sort of benefit necessarily to the ticket. And even if,
Speaker 2: even if you look at the idea of someone like
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, who is groundbreaking in terms of first woman
Speaker 2: of color, first African America for Cindy, and first Asian whatever, However,
Speaker 2: what all the firsts that she is. She's got to
Speaker 2: pick somebody Midwest white guy, football coach, school teacher, down
Speaker 2: to earth guy. I don't think much of that plays
Speaker 2: when it comes to voting. I mean, because I know
Speaker 2: that there's plenty of people out there who have no
Speaker 2: idea who the two vice presidential choices are. I mean,
Speaker 2: you would probably be able to ask ten people on
Speaker 2: the street, and good five or six of them would
Speaker 2: not be able to tell you one or both jd.
Speaker 7: Vance and Tim Walls's names.
Speaker 1: So some memorable vice presidential debates in history, there's only three.
Speaker 7: I mean, there's only three memories I can think of it.
Speaker 1: In nineteen ninety two, Admiral James Stockdale was the running
Speaker 1: mate of Ross Perrot. He said he was going for Breezy,
Speaker 1: but seemed befuddled when he opened the debate by saying,
Speaker 1: who am I?
Speaker 5: Why am I here?
Speaker 2: That was one of the best things that Saturday Night
Speaker 2: Live did is they used Phil Hartman as Admiral Stockdale.
Speaker 1: He later responded to a question, I didn't have my
Speaker 1: hearing aid turned up, only reinforcing the perception that he
Speaker 1: was out of it.
Speaker 7: And what was he seventy?
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly but in nineteen ninety two, you know that
Speaker 1: was old.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then of course the Sarah Palin debate asking Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: can I call you Joe? Trying to open it up
Speaker 1: with that folksye type of vibe. There is the Texas
Speaker 1: Democratic Center Lloyd Benson, who offered Dan Quayle of Indiana
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty eight. This after Quayle compared himself to JFK.
Speaker 1: Benson replied, You're no Jack Kennedy, Senator. That's a classic line,
Speaker 1: it is. I worked with Jack Kennedy. I know Jack,
Speaker 1: you were no Jack?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 1: That was a good one. And then of course the
Speaker 1: fly on Mike Pence's hair.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't have put even Sarah Palin's line up
Speaker 2: there in the top, but Mike Pence's fly is proof
Speaker 2: how little, at least to this point, how little vice
Speaker 2: presidential debates have mattered well.
Speaker 1: Sarah Palin's debate was of huge interest, A lot of
Speaker 1: anticipation there because who is she?
Speaker 5: Does she have the chops? She had just butchered?
Speaker 9: That?
Speaker 5: Did she butcher?
Speaker 1: That interview before or after the debate with Barbara Walters
Speaker 1: and I remember, but there was great anticipation there of like,
Speaker 1: does this person have what it takes?
Speaker 7: Was Barbara Walters or Katie correct?
Speaker 5: It was Katie correct. You're right, I get my blonde
Speaker 5: interviewers mixed time. But I'm a sexist.
Speaker 2: But I think that one of the issues that is
Speaker 2: different this time than in previous election cycles is that
Speaker 2: this there's one debate. Yeah, there's one debate of the
Speaker 2: presidential candidates to go off of. There's not two or
Speaker 2: three or more. There's one. And that puts a lot
Speaker 2: of pressure or you know, maybe more pressure on Tim
Speaker 2: Walls and jd Vance for tomorrow night than otherwise.
Speaker 7: What Why are they doing it in New.
Speaker 2: York City is a question I would ask if I
Speaker 2: was one of the campaigns, I would say, we need
Speaker 2: to stop giving the coasts all of this, you know,
Speaker 2: all of this high profile events like that.
Speaker 5: Why aren't they just living in a swing state at
Speaker 5: this point?
Speaker 7: Put it in put.
Speaker 2: It in the Philadelphia or put it in Detroit or
Speaker 2: something like that.
Speaker 1: All right, Coming up next, the shocking murder of a
Speaker 1: judge in Kentucky and his chambers by his sheriff friend,
Speaker 1: now being investigated as a possible sex scandal. Do do
Speaker 1: do It's Monday so.
Speaker 7: Hey, Robin, give me this computer overheads, got's a little.
Speaker 1: Bity possible sex scandal, A possible sex scandal.
Speaker 7: Sex scandal.
Speaker 1: To take three Monday, and Shannon will continue. Amy King
Speaker 1: is lot wait Amy Amy survived. I did the rope,
Speaker 1: did not break it didn't.
Speaker 7: You're wearing the you're wearing the swag and everything.
Speaker 5: Over the edge. Was it so much fun? Adrenaline? How
Speaker 5: did you feel? It was as I anticipated.
Speaker 9: It was terrifying and it was exhilarating and it was
Speaker 9: super fun. And it was so great that I went
Speaker 9: and did it again and took a friend with me.
Speaker 5: Oh really, yeah, Oh how fun?
Speaker 9: Yeah, it just happened to be Nick Pauliochini. I said,
Speaker 9: can we come back and do it the next day?
Speaker 9: So I took Nick down with me.
Speaker 7: Fantastic.
Speaker 5: It was really really great.
Speaker 9: And thank you to you guys for letting me talk
Speaker 9: about it because that helped helped give my donations a
Speaker 9: little bumpy bumpy.
Speaker 7: Oh good.
Speaker 5: Yes, And so I kicked nails. Yeah that's what I
Speaker 5: was waiting for. He did great too, He did right now,
Speaker 5: it's not a competition, but he made it, but it
Speaker 5: is absolutely he made it.
Speaker 9: He did and He even loved it and wants to
Speaker 9: do it again next year.
Speaker 7: Oh that's very cool. Ye.
Speaker 2: Well, good for you guys again to help Union Rescue Mission,
Speaker 2: right yep, for.
Speaker 9: A great cause, and so thank you. Thank you for
Speaker 9: anybody who donated.
Speaker 8: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 8: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: When the couple reunited with Rainbow, he had lost forty
Speaker 1: of his body weight.
Speaker 2: What are you doing the newspaper?
Speaker 1: It's just such a while knew you were such a
Speaker 1: read shamer.
Speaker 7: I just I have.
Speaker 2: First of all, I have not seen the New York
Speaker 2: Times in print for a couple of years now, and
Speaker 2: you actually had it and brought it in.
Speaker 1: Well, I didn't have time to read it yesterday because
Speaker 1: I was playing football.
Speaker 7: Is it the Sunday Times? It is?
Speaker 5: Oh okay, I like I still like a physical paper.
Speaker 5: Once in a while, I did two everyone, So I
Speaker 5: just never.
Speaker 7: I don't think I've ever seen you. That's the only
Speaker 7: time I've seen you with an actual respaper.
Speaker 5: I didn't mean to alarm you.
Speaker 2: Well, that's not the only story that I'm getting in
Speaker 2: trouble for.
Speaker 10: Hey, Garrett, you know that dumb little giggle. You just
Speaker 10: did after you played the clip of Trump smearing Harris
Speaker 10: and calling her born mentally disabled. You think that's funny,
Speaker 10: You think that's funny to make fun of our mentally
Speaker 10: disabled people. That is so gross and that is so
Speaker 10: quote unquote christian of you. Do better, dude, seriously, do better.
Speaker 5: I didn't catch your giggle, or else I would have
Speaker 5: chastised you as well.
Speaker 7: That's a lie. That's a lie. It wasn't.
Speaker 2: I wasn't making fun of anybody other than Donald Trump
Speaker 2: for being so completely off message and completely incapable of
Speaker 2: just arguing the points what he needs to make.
Speaker 1: It's the childhood It's the.
Speaker 5: Name calling, juvenile, not smart.
Speaker 1: It's like, if you're going to sling mud, be smarter
Speaker 1: about it. In her words, do better, Like these childhood
Speaker 1: playground insults are, They're just not.
Speaker 5: Funny or enlightened.
Speaker 1: I mean, I just like when I talk s about people,
Speaker 1: I like to think I'm pretty good at it.
Speaker 5: Like I put in the work.
Speaker 1: I get creative writing.
Speaker 7: Right, you know I get it. By the way.
Speaker 2: For those of you keeping track tomorrow Jimmy Carter's one
Speaker 2: hundredth birthday, a couple of different pieces over the weekend.
Speaker 1: About brain cancer and how he survived it.
Speaker 2: He's had he was diagnosed with brain cancer like a
Speaker 2: decade ago. Yeah, and he was already ninety at that point.
Speaker 2: And anyway, there are going to be more celebrations tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Peanut Carter at a hunt. I think peanuts are a
Speaker 1: wonderful food. They keep you healthy, they keep the brain
Speaker 1: cancer from getting you.
Speaker 7: I hope.
Speaker 1: He was the peanut farmer, right, Yes, okay, because sometimes
Speaker 1: I attribute that to Gerald Ford really mistakingly. So all right,
Speaker 1: so remember this story about the judge in Kentucky, his sheriff,
Speaker 1: a friend used to be the bailiff in his courtroom,
Speaker 1: a sole courtroom there in that county, walking into his chambers.
Speaker 5: The two were supposed to have lunch, and he shot
Speaker 5: and killed him.
Speaker 7: Shot him eight times.
Speaker 2: Now, surveillance video from inside the judge's chambers show them
Speaker 2: switching cell phones and looking at something on them before
Speaker 2: the sheriff walks over and shoots him dead.
Speaker 1: Now, the investigators have seized the two cell phones. They're
Speaker 1: being analyzed. But they believe it was a possible sex
Speaker 1: scandal that led to this, That the possible sex scandal
Speaker 1: is the motive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the explanation we know, oh, I should say. What
Speaker 2: we do know about this is that the sheriff had
Speaker 2: been deposed in a lawsuit filed by two women there
Speaker 2: in that county. One of those women alleges that a deputy,
Speaker 2: not the sheriff, but a deputy, forced her to have
Speaker 2: sex inside the judges chambers for six months in exchange
Speaker 2: for staying out of jail.
Speaker 1: The lawsuit accuses the sheriff of deliberate indifference in failing
Speaker 1: to adequately train and supervise the deputy.
Speaker 5: Now that is not.
Speaker 1: That is unfortunate because as a sheriff, you cannot train
Speaker 1: and supervise the sex assaults out of your underlings. That's
Speaker 1: not something you train or you supervise for.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to remind your employees, hey, don't have
Speaker 1: sex with inmates to keep them out of jail.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 2: But that deputy, by the way, Ben Fields, he had
Speaker 2: been the bailiff for this judge. And you know who
Speaker 2: was the previous bailiff, why the sheriff himself. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: he is.
Speaker 1: They're an insinuation that this deputy, I'm sorry, this sheriff
Speaker 1: was in trouble for his deputy having sex with this woman.
Speaker 1: To keep her out of custody, and that the judge
Speaker 1: looked the other way to allow the sex to go
Speaker 1: on in his chambers. And then the sheriff finds out
Speaker 1: that the judge was looking the other way, and because
Speaker 1: the sheriff's in.
Speaker 5: Trouble for this, is pissed off that his career.
Speaker 1: Is on the line, so he shoots and kills the
Speaker 1: sheriff eight times, eight times.
Speaker 5: Insinuates there's a little bit more to the story.
Speaker 7: Yeah, what is on those phones?
Speaker 1: What is on those phones? And was this somebody this woman?
Speaker 1: Was she being passed around? Was this just the deputy
Speaker 1: or was it the sheriff or was it the judge involved?
Speaker 1: Where's that thing?
Speaker 7: Oh it's too it's too late. I want to get
Speaker 7: in more trouble.
Speaker 5: Okay, got it.
Speaker 2: But the sheriff came out of the courtroom with his
Speaker 2: hands up, clearly he knew what was going down.
Speaker 7: After he shot the judge.
Speaker 2: They had worked together too, The judge and the sheriff
Speaker 2: had worked together on drug addiction and recovery projects because
Speaker 2: in that section of Kentucky apparently a lot of places
Speaker 2: in appellation, but in that specific area racked by the
Speaker 2: opioid epidemic and overdose's fentanyl, just all kinds of things,
Speaker 2: and that they were working together to try to clean
Speaker 2: up their county.
Speaker 1: There was a second woman involved, but those charges were
