Speaker 1: A life threatening heat wave is all over the East Coast,
Speaker 1: hitting cities with the worst of the high temperatures before
Speaker 1: they get some relief later in the week. It's the
Speaker 1: first major heat wave of the season from Texas to Maine,
Speaker 1: the entire Interstate ninety five corridor. If you're familiar, Boston,
Speaker 1: New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, DC. We mentioned by one
Speaker 1: o'clock today it had already reached one hundred degrees in
Speaker 1: New York City at Kennedy.
Speaker 3: The FBI is going to reallocate several thousand agents away
Speaker 3: from immigration enforcement to focus on cyber threats and counter
Speaker 3: terrorism efforts. According to sources familiar with the plan, it's
Speaker 3: been discussing shifting at least a couple of thousand agents
Speaker 3: away from immigration work to help protect against threats from
Speaker 3: foreign adversaries, especially Iran, of course, prompted at least in
Speaker 3: part by the US strikes on Iran's nuclear program.
Speaker 1: Over the weekend, a true crime story that you're going
Speaker 1: to probably hear a lot more about came to a
Speaker 1: tragic finish when a woman in the process of getting
Speaker 1: a divorce in her date were shot and killed outside
Speaker 1: of sushi restaurant in the Inland Empire over the weekend
Speaker 1: in Fontana. Then an off duty sheriff's deputy shot and
Speaker 1: killed the shooter. This was the woman's estrange husband who
Speaker 1: tracked her down before shooting her in the date in
Speaker 1: the parking lot. Gloria Zamora is her name. She's forty.
Speaker 1: She is a social media influencer, a fitness coach, and
Speaker 1: she spoke about her penning divorce to her thousands of
Speaker 1: followers just over a week ago on her podcast.
Speaker 2: That's the original story, I saw was.
Speaker 3: Didn't identify the victims, but just said that an off
Speaker 3: duty sheriff's deputy saw this guy shoot two people and
Speaker 3: ended up confronting him and shooting and killing him, but
Speaker 3: we didn't know who it was at the time. A
Speaker 3: United States Congressman from Georgia, Congressman Buddy Carter has written
Speaker 3: to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee that he has nominated
Speaker 3: President Trump for the Nobel Prize and recognition of his
Speaker 3: role in brokery a cease fire deal between Israel and
Speaker 3: Iran and preventing the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism
Speaker 3: from obtaining the most lethal weapon on the planet.
Speaker 2: He wrote on.
Speaker 1: Twitter, you ever climb a tree?
Speaker 2: I've climbed many trees.
Speaker 1: I was actually with Joe Kwan over the weekend. We're
Speaker 1: walking and with her dog, and I saw a nice
Speaker 1: tree for climbing. I thought that was a good tree
Speaker 1: to climb. Luckily I did not climb it, but I
Speaker 1: wanted to.
Speaker 2: That's a good story about the thing that didn't happen.
Speaker 1: Well, don't you see trees from time to time and
Speaker 1: you think that would be a good climbing tree, And
Speaker 1: there's a bit of you, like forty percent of you
Speaker 1: that is going to go ahead and climb that tree
Speaker 1: because it looks fun, and then the sixty percent of
Speaker 1: you wins out like you're a grown ass adult. Do
Speaker 1: not climb this tree. You'll look like a homeless love.
Speaker 2: To climb tree?
Speaker 1: See anyway, A man in Washington State has been rescued
Speaker 1: after falling from a tree. I think there may have
Speaker 1: been a mental health situation going on with him. He
Speaker 1: was stuck in the woods for days. Apparently somebody called
Speaker 1: nine one one because they heard a voice in the
Speaker 1: woods calling for help. When the police arrived, they said
Speaker 1: they heard a faint, distrustful voice of a man saying
Speaker 1: he had fallen from a tree. Why how does this
Speaker 1: reach the news? How is this reached from the police
Speaker 1: blotder to the national news for ABC News? A man
Speaker 1: falls from a tree in the woods in Washington.
Speaker 3: Well, there's not a lot that goes on in polls
Speaker 3: bo So. On the other hand, if you are over
Speaker 3: near a magic castle early this morning, late last night,
Speaker 3: early this morning, you may have seen the kerfuffle of
Speaker 3: the woman who was vandalizing a car stopped by police
Speaker 3: and handcuffed, put in the back of a police cruiser
Speaker 3: and then she found a way to get from the
Speaker 3: back seat to the front seat of that car and
Speaker 3: took off in the police suv. She didn't go very far,
Speaker 3: but by the time they located the vehicle at Camros
Speaker 3: in Paramount, she was gone like a ghost if you will,
Speaker 3: in handcuffs and raiders outfit. Graiter nation, baby, do not underestimate.
Speaker 3: And then finally there's a weird story out of France.
Speaker 3: Police in France say that fourteen people have been arrested
Speaker 3: and one hundred and forty five people apparently assaulted pricked
Speaker 3: by syringes.
Speaker 1: What's in the syringes They haven't.
Speaker 2: Said if there was anything in the syringers.
Speaker 1: They said the people get hot flushes, they get dizzy,
Speaker 1: loss of consciousness, visible marks or bruises on their skin.
Speaker 3: Some were taken to a hospital. They were given saliva,
Speaker 3: urine and blood samples. Get to give the saliva urine
Speaker 3: blood samples. They didn't get them to figure out what
Speaker 3: they had been injected.
Speaker 1: It's a music festival. You kind of got to go
Speaker 1: to a music festival with the knowledge that you could
Speaker 1: be attacked with a syringe. Various different things happen at
Speaker 1: music festivals. Sometimes people have plates of cherries and unidentified
Speaker 1: liquid and they're offering them to strangers.
Speaker 2: And cherries.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you drink lemon cell about a some stranger's trunk
Speaker 1: out there? What trunk the trunk of their cars?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: I think I'm thinking elephant trunk and I don't know
Speaker 3: what you're talking about. Just before this music festival, by
Speaker 3: the way, a French feminist influencer posted on social media
Speaker 3: a warning that men were threatening to prick women during
Speaker 3: this nationwide music event. So she knew it was happening.
Speaker 3: But you're not going to bounce back from that? Oh me, yeah, me, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm not the one who needs no bouncing what The
Speaker 3: Roseanne bar story is also pretty fun?
Speaker 1: Yeah it is. But we're gonna talk to Michael Mounk
Speaker 1: when we come back, because we talk about we will,
Speaker 1: we will talk about that. We will talk about that
Speaker 1: as well. Would you rather talk about that with Michael
Speaker 1: Monks than, you know, the fiscal emergency in LA. We
Speaker 1: can totally scare him and just have him on and
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, so Michael's here to tell us about
Speaker 1: Roseanne Barr. Oh do you want to do that? No,
Speaker 1: because he's listening and he'll know he's not listening. Somebody
Speaker 1: listens to this.
Speaker 2: Also a chance at one thousand bucks coming up.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: Am six forty man.
Speaker 1: Trump's comments today this morning there on the lawn about
Speaker 1: they don't know what the f they're doing the NFL
Speaker 1: memes has really won the day, you know. I mean
Speaker 1: it works for everything NFL fans. When coaches draw up
Speaker 1: a wide receiver screen on third and long and then
Speaker 1: Trump they don't know what the f they're doing, I mean,
Speaker 1: it works so well. Anyway, a story that we have
Speaker 1: been following Roseanne Barr claiming that her thought, well, her daughter,
Speaker 1: who she gave up for adoption and knew her biological
Speaker 1: mother was in the movies, grew up thinking that her
Speaker 1: mother was not Roseanne Barr, but that she was Goldie Han.
Speaker 1: Michael Monks is on the story, joins us now with
Speaker 1: all the latest.
Speaker 3: I am always here for Goldie Han and Kurt Russell
Speaker 3: beat told you got the latest for you. Yeah, so
Speaker 3: overboard stuff, yeah? Or Wildcats? Was that one of the
Speaker 3: Goldie Han movies?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah?
Speaker 3: And uh, what was she in the military in one
Speaker 3: of them?
Speaker 2: Private?
Speaker 1: Don't forget about Wives Club with Diane Keaton.
Speaker 2: Forgot about it. It's gone. See you hate Diane Keaton
Speaker 2: as much as I do.
Speaker 1: You don't like Diane Keaton.
Speaker 2: Oh, she's fine.
Speaker 3: You know. I'm a big Kurb your Enthusiasm fan. And
Speaker 3: she had a role on it, but she didn't actually
Speaker 3: do the walk on It was just like her feet
Speaker 3: a stand in speet, and I had some resentment towards
Speaker 3: her for not doing the walk. Do you not do
Speaker 3: a walk on curb?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: So I've just harbored that and here we are.
Speaker 3: That's something you could work through, you think, I think,
Speaker 3: And you don't know me, ma'am.
Speaker 2: I think I can't let that go. Uh all right.
Speaker 1: Michael Monks is actually on the fiscal emergency at LA
Speaker 1: City Hall well where now they say more than six
Speaker 1: hundred layoffs are on the table. Well, we talked about
Speaker 1: this a little bit earlier when we touched on it,
Speaker 1: because we were talking about the thirty dollars minimum wage
Speaker 1: for hotel employees at city halls demanding. And then and
Speaker 1: then the news got worse for LA trying to balance
Speaker 1: its own budget.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in fact, it is closely related to what
Speaker 3: you were talking about the thirty dollars minimum wage mandate
Speaker 3: for hospitality workers. They've called them at hotels and at
Speaker 3: airport concessions because you heard some small hotel operators plead
Speaker 3: with the city council you can't pay your own employees.
Speaker 3: You're laying folks off, you're planning to anyway, and you're
Speaker 3: telling us that we have to give our employees raises
Speaker 3: that we are telling you we cannot afford. So it's
Speaker 3: directly related to that. The council never budged on that.
Speaker 3: There's some legal stuff going on. Maybe a ballot measure
Speaker 3: could be in our near future. If you're an LA
Speaker 3: resident on that particular issue, it's going to be a
Speaker 3: big nasty fight between the unions representing hospitality workers and
Speaker 3: the hotel industry. So we'll see how that goes. But today,
Speaker 3: as LA's finances continue to be terrible, did you.
Speaker 1: Bring up an excellent point that I am a numbskull
Speaker 1: for not realizing of the union's role in the whole thing.
Speaker 1: Of course, the city council members are beholden to the unions.
Speaker 1: They're gonna do whatever the hell they want.
Speaker 3: The unions are very powerful politically, very much and the
Speaker 3: one that was pushing for this one to unite here.
Speaker 3: Local eleven represents the hotel industry and they have a
Speaker 3: lot of pool at City Hall, and they helped get
Speaker 3: hotel workers raises just last year and now it's going
Speaker 3: to go up even higher. But this time also includes
Speaker 3: some of those small airport businesses. So right now the
Speaker 3: city has just approved this fiscal emergency declaration. This seems
Speaker 3: to be something that they need to do as part
Speaker 3: of the system of preparing for the layoffs. You recall,
Speaker 3: the city face to a billion dollar budget shortfall as
Speaker 3: they were navigating the budget process, they closed that gap.
Speaker 3: Originally about sixteen hundred people were going to lose their jobs.
Speaker 3: They did save one thousand jobs, but there are still
Speaker 3: six hundred plus on the table.
Speaker 1: So a declaration is just essentially checking a box on
Speaker 1: the way to layoff town.
Speaker 3: Basically, this is for the new fiscal year twenty five
Speaker 3: twenty six, So the fiscal year in municipal governments tend
Speaker 3: to start on July first and run through June thirty,
Speaker 3: so technically we're still in the current fiscal year. So
Speaker 3: this is in preparation of laying folks off. City Controller Kennethy.
Speaker 3: He has spelled it out who wish departments are going
Speaker 3: to be hit hardest, the Police department civilians, not the
Speaker 3: sworn officers. But we did hear the police department's brass say,
Speaker 3: these aren't just pencil pushers. These are folks that do
Speaker 3: a lot of important work in the investigation part.
Speaker 2: Of our jobs.
Speaker 3: So two hundred and forty eight of those folks as
Speaker 3: well as fifty seven out of the personnel department, Sanitation,
Speaker 3: Fire department losing forty one people as well, and then
Speaker 3: the list goes on basically every single department. Now there
Speaker 3: is a process in place at City Hall that they're
Speaker 3: working to to try to save all of these jobs.
Speaker 3: It may not necessarily be the role that these folks
Speaker 3: are currently in, but they've created what they've called the
Speaker 3: transfer portal, like in college sports in college, exactly where
Speaker 3: they are trying to Maybe you work in sanitation, but
Speaker 3: your skills are applicable in another department to save you
Speaker 3: over into some of those areas. But if you're wondering.
Speaker 1: Where would your skills move, you've got you have a
Speaker 1: vast variety of skills. You worked at al Playo Loco,
Speaker 1: you have been a lifeguard.
Speaker 3: I was an exotic dancer for a brief period. Really, yeah,
Speaker 3: I didn't know about that chapter. You know what, you
Speaker 3: don't want to hear that part. I didn't say I
Speaker 3: wouldn't want to hear it. I was going to put
Speaker 3: a fause on that. What year it was?
Speaker 2: The late sixties?
Speaker 1: No? No, for real, Bobby Sherman, for real.
Speaker 2: I was not an exotic dancer. Was It was a lie?
Speaker 2: But it is good because I was an actor. You
Speaker 2: believed it.
Speaker 1: That was an awful lie to tell. I got very excited.
Speaker 1: I think I can speak for both of us that
Speaker 1: we got.
Speaker 3: Very excited, different reasons. But yes, never dance exotically will
Speaker 3: for you during the commercial break? Okay, but I do
Speaker 3: have one more piece of news. I again to reflect
Speaker 3: my skills in this current position before I am dancing
Speaker 3: exotically again, just to make ends meet. You wonder, maybe
Speaker 3: maybe if you pay attention, you know exactly you know
Speaker 3: why the city's in the financial straits that it's in.
Speaker 3: If you don't pay attention, you may be surprised to
Speaker 3: learn that they're not particularly good at managing their money.
Speaker 3: They don't even know where a lot of it is going,
Speaker 3: particularly related to homelessness. But just last week I reported
Speaker 3: because of these protests against immigration enforcement, the city council
Speaker 3: voted to loan five million dollars to the police department
Speaker 3: from their own reserve fund. It's supposed to be paid
Speaker 3: back somehow to go back in the reserve fund to
Speaker 3: cover the overtime. Well, they had to boost that today
Speaker 3: because the total is over twenty two million dollars that
Speaker 3: they need. So they've already approved five million, and today
Speaker 3: they had to approve seventeen more. So why is that
Speaker 3: Because according to the city administrator in this report, we
Speaker 3: were addressing the funding needed to ensure the laped overtime
Speaker 3: for the remainder of the fiscal year is covered to
Speaker 3: avoid any need to bank time. That would be police
Speaker 3: officers working overtime and not being paid for it right away.
Speaker 3: So it's because originally they only counted the officers who
Speaker 3: were directly responding to protest related stuff. But you recalled,
Speaker 3: there was a city wide tactical alert issued. Every officer
Speaker 3: who was on duty when that went out had to
Speaker 3: stay regard if you were in the San Fernando Valley,
Speaker 3: if you were in San Pedro, And even though all
Speaker 3: the action was downtown. You were accumulating overtime, and they
Speaker 3: were like, oh wait, we have to pay for that too,
Speaker 3: and and and it's triple the original amount that they borrow.
Speaker 3: That's the type of accounting practices that we're dealing with
Speaker 3: at the city Hall.
Speaker 2: The smartest always rise to the top.
Speaker 1: Can we get him some music? I stopped listening to
Speaker 1: the whole budget thing.
Speaker 2: Well, what kind of song do you prefer? Remember?
Speaker 3: My dance song was the one I recommended for you.
Speaker 3: It's Ragged All by Aerosmith.
Speaker 1: That well you wanted to share, you know.
Speaker 3: Look, it was tough times in the early two thousands.
Speaker 3: I needed to make a little extra money on Monmouth
Speaker 3: Street in Newport, Kentucky and Little Vegas.
Speaker 2: It used to be. So give you an idea of
Speaker 2: what do you think.
Speaker 1: There's a place where you and I at our advanced
Speaker 1: ages could still go. Yes, you do, Yes, that's nice
Speaker 1: getting paid. I don't know, not like to support ourselves,
Speaker 1: but maybe a little pocket change.
Speaker 2: From walking around money later.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys, the Burbank Nature Park is two hundred
Speaker 3: yards that way, you guys could dance out thirty.
Speaker 2: I think we could. I think if you want are
Speaker 2: you going to become buskers.
Speaker 3: Not only that, I already have it choreographed, so whenever
Speaker 3: you're ready to start practicing.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a choreo. I just had an idea, yeah, for.
Speaker 3: A bar where they have exotic dancing and on on
Speaker 3: Guys Night, we call it make Ends Meet.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think you know how how it works. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it is probably right.
Speaker 3: That's like boring the ends can meet.
Speaker 1: Do you ever play make Ends Meet with your wife?
Speaker 3: No, I'm happy to explain to you off air how
Speaker 3: Guys Night really works.
Speaker 5: Oh, hey, guys, Yeah, we just had a little earthquake.
Speaker 3: Oh, let's make I felt it.
Speaker 1: Did you need me?
Speaker 2: No, I don't know.
Speaker 1: They were talking about the movement in their hearts. What
Speaker 1: what was it?
Speaker 6: Two point seven in the Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 5: Oh, let me explain my daughter, who's at my house
Speaker 5: right now in the West San Fernando Valley.
Speaker 6: Yes, you've spread the.
Speaker 1: Hysteria to your youth.
Speaker 5: I did, and I said, oh okay, she said yeah,
Speaker 5: it was one big jolt.
Speaker 2: So now online it wasn't.
Speaker 6: It's two point seven, But people are saying that.
Speaker 5: It was just one jolt and that was it, and
Speaker 5: the USGS is saying it was a two point seven
Speaker 5: preliminary magnitude.
Speaker 6: Maybe it was bigger. I don't know, that's just preliminary.
Speaker 1: It didn't feel bigger then.
Speaker 6: You didn't even feel it. No, well, you know what
Speaker 6: that means. We could have the bigger one later.
Speaker 2: She's always worried about the big one.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 6: Yes, I am Michael.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was.
Speaker 3: Thank you for having me, as always always a pleasure
Speaker 3: from It was a roller coaster to the bitter end.
Speaker 2: Thank you for staying.
Speaker 4: Of course, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
Speaker 4: from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3: This cease fire between Iran and Israel appears to be holding.
Speaker 2: The deal did falter right away.
Speaker 3: President Trump expressed frustration today with both sides, saying that
Speaker 3: they've fought for so long and so hard that they
Speaker 3: don't know what the f they are doing. Israel had
Speaker 3: earlier accused Iran of launching missiles into its airspace after
Speaker 3: the truce was supposed to take effect, but the Iranian
Speaker 3: military denied firing on Israel. But there were, of course
Speaker 3: explosions and sirens in northern Israel this morning, and Israeli
Speaker 3: military officials said two Iranian missiles were interrupted.
Speaker 1: Well, it was a murder mystery that really gripped Colorado.
Speaker 1: It is the murder of Suzanne Morpheu and it's where
Speaker 1: we kick off True Crime Tuesday.
Speaker 3: The story is true, sounds true, No, it sounds made up.
Speaker 4: I don't know. Barry and Shannon present true.
Speaker 1: So this is the case of a woman in Colorado
Speaker 1: by the name of Suzanne Morphew who disappeared on Mother's Day.
Speaker 1: It's always odd when that happens, right, and Lacy Peterson
Speaker 1: disappear Christmas. Well, this woman disappears on Mother's Day twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: Also important to point out that that was deep deep covid.
Speaker 1: Right right to remember the whole lockdown was in effect,
Speaker 1: certainly in April. I don't know how much Colorado played
Speaker 1: by the rules, but yes, that is the time that
Speaker 1: we're talking about. This was a case that right away
Speaker 1: drew the attention of true crime podcasters across the country.
Speaker 1: Forty eight hours picked up on it as well. It
Speaker 1: was everywhere. And now it's back in the news because
Speaker 1: a grand jury has returned in an indictment charging Barry Morphew,
Speaker 1: fifty seven years old, with the first degree murder of
Speaker 1: his wife, Suzanne. Now this is five year years after
Speaker 1: the fact. This was, in some people's opinions, a cold case,
Speaker 1: but it seems like they were crossing t's and dotting
Speaker 1: eyes against the husband this whole time. This is the
Speaker 1: second time that Barry, the husband, has been charged in
Speaker 1: the death of his wife. They had to drop the
Speaker 1: charges in twenty twenty two without prejudice, meaning they could
Speaker 1: be refiled. Essentially.
Speaker 3: One of the other big keys is this time they
Speaker 3: have her body and they didn't have her body when
Speaker 3: they first filed charges in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: Now their community, this is in central Colorado. They say
Speaker 1: it captivated the community of about twenty thousand people. More
Speaker 1: than fourteen hundred tips. More than seventy officers from the
Speaker 1: county Sheriff's office, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and the
Speaker 1: FBI were involved. And this a lot of work went
Speaker 1: into this one. You can just see how extensive it was.
Speaker 1: I mean, just the tips alone with a small town
Speaker 1: community like that had to just be crazy to sift through.
Speaker 1: Where did it all start? Well, Suzanne went missing. A
Speaker 1: neighbor reported her missing to police at about five forty
Speaker 1: five on Mother's Day, May tenth, twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: The problem is that may have been a day or
Speaker 3: two or more after she died, Barry told police. Barry,
Speaker 3: the husband, told police that she was still asleep in
Speaker 3: bed when he left their home near Salida, Colorado, at
Speaker 3: about five in that morning five in that morning for
Speaker 3: a work trip.
Speaker 2: He checked into a hotel that night.
Speaker 3: Investigator said, he spent very little time at the job
Speaker 3: site during the day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, according to the indictment. I actually read the indictment
Speaker 1: over the weekend because a.
Speaker 2: Lot of fun, A lot of fun time, you are,
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: Anyway, according to the indictment, sides two brief visits to
Speaker 1: the job site area, he wasn't there. Conversely, electronic evidence
Speaker 1: cameras from the hotel he stayed in and just all
Speaker 1: the cameras that now surround us in our everyday life,
Speaker 1: showed him driving to various locations and discarding unknown items
Speaker 1: in separate trash cans. Ah, he's a heads up right.
Speaker 1: I saw one of the still images from the hotel
Speaker 1: hallway camera of him carrying a bag of trash and
Speaker 1: a pair of shoes, per the indictment. Barry Morfew deleted
Speaker 1: a text chain on May sixth, so this was four
Speaker 1: days before she was reported missing on that Mother's Day.
Speaker 1: He deleted a May sixth text chain with the wife,
Speaker 1: though a screenshot of one message from her remained, and
Speaker 1: it read I'm done. I could care less what you're
Speaker 1: up to and have been for years. We just need
Speaker 1: to figure this out civilly. So right there in writing,
Speaker 1: it seems like this marriage is over and has been
Speaker 1: over for quite some time.
Speaker 2: Again, she's reported missing on May tenth.
Speaker 3: On May ninth was the last known communication via a
Speaker 3: text message. About two in the afternoon on May ninth,
Speaker 3: she sent a text message to a guy out of state,
Speaker 3: to a guy that she may have been having an
Speaker 3: affair with. A Short time after that, Barry Moore few
Speaker 3: gets home and his cell phone was turned off for
Speaker 3: the next eight hours, which is.
Speaker 2: Just that's just unusual.
Speaker 3: Regardless of who you are and how old you are,
Speaker 3: if you have a cell phone, it's very unusual for
Speaker 3: you to turn it off nowadays.
Speaker 1: The neighbor called Barry around five pm on Mother's Day
Speaker 1: told him that his daughters were concerned because they couldn't
Speaker 1: reach Suzanne on her cell phone all day. He told
Speaker 1: the neighbor to check the house look for her bike
Speaker 1: because he knew she was going on a bike ride. Now,
Speaker 1: when they couldn't find her or the bike, he told
Speaker 1: the neighbor to call the sheriff at that point. Now,
Speaker 1: that's odd to me. The daughters, by the way, are
Speaker 1: adult daughters, and if they couldn't find mom, why wouldn't
Speaker 1: they call dad? Why would they tell the neighbor. Furthermore,
Speaker 1: the daughters couldn't reach Mom on her cell phone when
Speaker 1: they sent her Happy Mother's Day texts? Who texts their
Speaker 1: mother Happy Mother's Day? That's a phone call you have
Speaker 1: to make, isn't it? Mom is not going to be
Speaker 1: That's not going to be sufficient. No, Mom's gonna be
Speaker 1: pissed off if you send that text.
Speaker 3: Well, they found the officers showed up, the home was locked,
Speaker 3: Susanna is gone, the bike is gone. They located the
Speaker 3: bike about a half a mile less than a mile,
Speaker 3: i should say, from the house and the bike and
Speaker 3: the helmet, just off of a highway.
Speaker 1: We'll tell you how they put the case together, why
Speaker 1: they couldn't put this case together right away, and more
Speaker 1: details about what they think happened to Suzanne.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: The second guy arrested in connection with that Palm Springs
Speaker 1: fertility clinic bombing has died today, thirty two years old.
Speaker 1: Daniel Park. This is a guy from Washington State who
Speaker 1: was accused of providing the bomb making materials to the
Speaker 1: guy who detonated the car bomb. Died today while in
Speaker 1: federal custody here in Los Angeles, thirty two years old.
Speaker 1: He was found unresponsive about seven point thirty this morning.
Speaker 1: Later died at a hospital. Cause of death not immediately announced.
Speaker 1: He was charged and arrested earlier this month with providing
Speaker 1: and attempting to provide material support.
Speaker 3: To a terrorist. We are in the midst of true
Speaker 3: crime Tuesday. We're telling you the case of Suzanne Morphew,
Speaker 3: who disappeared on Mother's Day twenty twenty and was never
Speaker 3: seen again. Her husband, you can imagine, was a person
Speaker 3: of interest pretty soon into the disappearance. The public later
Speaker 3: learned that they were having difficulty in their marriage. She
Speaker 3: may have been having an affair with an old high
Speaker 3: school classmate. There was something that had come out about that.
Speaker 3: Seems like the marriage had been over for quite some time.
Speaker 3: Based on what her text messages to him were yes.
Speaker 3: So about a year after she disappears, the husband, Barry,
Speaker 3: is arrested and charged with murder, tampering with physical evidence,
Speaker 3: attempting to influence a public servant in connection with the death,
Speaker 3: et cetera. He pleaded not guilty. Charges were dropped without prejudice,
Speaker 3: which means that they could refile them if they wanted to.
Speaker 3: But again, they hadn't found her body. They just had
Speaker 3: a bunch of circumstantial evidence that was curious at best
Speaker 3: about this guy's behavior.
Speaker 1: Her body wasn't found until three years after she was
Speaker 1: reported missing. Her remains were found in and around a
Speaker 1: shallow grave about an hour south of her home. The
Speaker 1: majority of her bones were recovered and were significantly bleached.
Speaker 1: They also recovered a cancer port and items of clothing,
Speaker 1: including biking clothes she was known to wear. But they
Speaker 1: said that it was unlikely her body decomposed at that site,
Speaker 1: and that the decomposition was inconsistent with her wearing the
Speaker 1: bike clothing at the time, so she was dumped there
Speaker 1: with the bike clothing, which is consistent with the story.
Speaker 1: He told authorities that he knew she was going out
Speaker 1: for a bike ride when she was missing. They also
Speaker 1: found things in her body, a chemical mixture known as BAM.
Speaker 1: What is that, well, that is animal tranquilizer.
Speaker 3: Buttorphenal as a parent as a parne and medeta to medine.
Speaker 1: Turns out the husband, Barry, used BAM all the time
Speaker 1: to sedate and transport deer on his farm in Andiana
Speaker 1: prior to moving to Colorado. He used BAM in Colorado
Speaker 1: as recently as the month before she disappeared to tranquilize
Speaker 1: a deer in the breezeway of his home. No other
Speaker 1: private citizens or private businesses in any of the surrounding
Speaker 1: counties had purchased BAM from twenty seventeen to twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: Now when that came through, when whoever did the deep
Speaker 1: dive of the data and went through all of the
Speaker 1: receipts or lack thereof of BAM, what a moment. He
Speaker 1: was the sole person who had access to BAM in
Speaker 1: the area when she went missing, and her body turns
Speaker 1: turns up pumped full of it.
Speaker 3: Which again this doesn't a put the murder weapon in
Speaker 3: his hands or be connect him directly to her disappearance.
Speaker 3: But you can make us very very strong, circumstantial case,
Speaker 3: it's still evidence.
Speaker 1: It puts the murder weapon in his hands. In my summation, Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, but how yet it puts the he's the
Speaker 1: only person that had access to the weapon that killed
Speaker 1: her in the state.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, okay, I'll go with that, your honor, I
Speaker 3: retract my previous question. This guy has an attorney named
Speaker 3: iris A Ten who defended him in the first trial,
Speaker 3: and she says of Barry, not only is he a
Speaker 3: loving father, but he was a loving husband. I've handled
Speaker 3: thousands of cases that I've never seen prosecutors mishandle a
Speaker 3: case so recklessly. The case was fumbled so terribly. Three
Speaker 3: prosecutors were penalized after Barry's case was rightly dismissed. I
Speaker 3: dedicated the second half of my career to ensure that
Speaker 3: what happened to Barry doesn't happen to another in This
Speaker 3: person saying that.
Speaker 1: Bothers me the most is there is a picture of
Speaker 1: him and his adult daughters, their adult daughters, young adults. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they're leaving a court hearing. I'm assuming when the
Speaker 1: charges were dismissed without prejudice the first time, and they
Speaker 1: are done up, made up to a t. They are
Speaker 1: glamed out, They are smiling with their father walking away
Speaker 1: from the courthouse, And there is nothing in any of
Speaker 1: the things I read that they came out and said,
Speaker 1: you know, I loved my mom. Whoever killed my mom?
Speaker 1: It seems like they there was some sort of weird
Speaker 1: relationship there with them just texting their mother on Mother's Day,
Speaker 1: And it seems like the daughters were in freaking cahoots
Speaker 1: on this one.
Speaker 2: Isn't it.
Speaker 3: Yeah I thought that as well, not necessarily because the
Speaker 3: text message on Mother's Day.
Speaker 2: But that's a good point. But I would find it
Speaker 2: really hard to.
Speaker 3: With all of the circumstantial evidence that was originally brought
Speaker 3: up against this guy, that you, as a daughter wouldn't
Speaker 3: have questions. Yeah, you wouldn't have a whole series of
Speaker 3: questions for your own father about that.
Speaker 1: Also, then well, if it's not him, then who And
Speaker 1: you don't sleep till you find out who killed your mom?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we're gonna hear more about that. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's excellent, all right, we'll see you tomorrow.
