It will 20 00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:20.959 cool down a few degrees, but the heat is expected 21 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:24.159 to stick around through the weekend. Police say eight of 22 00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:28.400 the nine people shot at Appalachi High School in winder Georgia, 23 00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:32.480 where students one was a teacher.

That includes muted microphones, 33 00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:07.799 which Harris's campaign objected to, saying they would shield Donald 34 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:11.639 Trump from direct exchanges with Harris. Harris's team agreed to 35 00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:14.520 the conditions yesterday, saying they don't want to jeopardize the debate. 36 00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:16.800 Also coming up on wake Up Call, as I mentioned, 37 00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:20.039 we're going out and about We're going on the Amtrak 38 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:22.599 Pacific Surfliner.

Also, let the online buyer beware. A couple 44 00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:39.159 of companies are in hot water for selling banned products 45 00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:40.560 on their sites. We're going to find out more about 46 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.960 that with ABC's Jim Ryan in just a couple of minutes, 47 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:44.719 But right now, let's get started with some of the 48 00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.080 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 49 00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:50.599 Schools in Barrow County, Georgia are closed for the rest 50 00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:53.560 of the week following the shooting at a high school yesterday. 51 00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:56.400 Authorities say a fourteen year old is going to be 52 00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.400 charged as an adult in the killings of two students 53 00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:02.879 and two tea at Appalachi High School.

Local Sheriff 55 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.199 jud Smith calls what happened pure evil. 56 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:09.240 My heart hurts for. 57 00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.719 These kids, my heart hurts for our community. 58 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.599 But I want to make it very clear that hate 59 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.840 will not prevail in this county. 60 00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:24.520 Smith says they don't know what happened or why it happened, 61 00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:27.960 and that they may never know. The so called Pillowcase 62 00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:31.120 rapist may be released from state custody to a home 63 00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:32.319 in the Annealope Valley. 64 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:34.800 Neighbors in and around Juniper Hills have been asked to 65 00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.400 give public feedback on the possibility of Christopher Hubbart being released. 66 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.080 He's been convicted of more than three dozen rapes and 67 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:44.639 sexual assaults, often using a pillowcase to muffle the screams 68 00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:46.960 of women he attacked. The crimes date back to the 69 00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.919 seventies and eighties, and after one release, he reoffended. In 70 00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.919 a second release, he violated conditions and was taken back 71 00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:56.719 into custody. LA County District Attorney George Gascone opposes Hubbard's 72 00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:59.000 release to Juniper Hills and wants to hear from the 73 00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.879 public via email before a court hearing on October first 74 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:04.800 in downtown La. Michael Monks KFI News. 75 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:08.919 The two NASA astronauts taken to the International Space Station 76 00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:13.039 aboard Boeing's Starliner spacecraft won't be on board when it 77 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.279 comes back to Earth tomorrow, butch Wilmore and Sunny Williams 78 00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.759 will stay in space as full crew members of the 79 00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:24.040 International Space Station until February. ISS Flight director Anthony Verea 80 00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:27.040 says they've been helping with the final prep work before 81 00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:28.319 Starliner undocs. 82 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:32.879 We have been preparing through simulations, procedure reviews, and that's 83 00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.000 with the flight control team on the ground as well 84 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.040 as the crew on orbit for the activities that are coming. 85 00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:42.199 The fully automated capsule will aim for a touchdown in 86 00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:47.360 New Mexico six hours after it undocks tomorrow evening. Right now, 87 00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:51.040 so let's say good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan. So, Jim, 88 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:54.199 I've shopped on TIMU a couple of times. Yeah, prices 89 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:57.160 are crazy inexpensive. But apparently we need to look beyond 90 00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:57.839 the prices. 91 00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:01.480 Yeah, for a lot of reasons. This has been kind 92 00:05:01.519 --> 00:05:03.560 of a controversial thing for a couple of years, But 93 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:09.519 the most recent controversy involves baby padded crib rails. The 94 00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:13.399 US Product Safety Consumer Product Safet Commission went to Congress 95 00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:15.560 a couple of years ago and said, Hey, these things 96 00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.399 are dangerous. Kids can suffocate, they get tangled up in 97 00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:20.680 these things. Take them off the market. So Congress did 98 00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:23.879 in twenty twenty two, well, at least according to one 99 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:28.480 tech publication, that these rails, these pads were still available 100 00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.319 on both TIMU and she and within the last month 101 00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.560 or so. So the US CPS is going to look 102 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.279 at that, launching an investigation. Timu and Shean say they 103 00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:41.160 are both cooperating with that probe. But it's only the 104 00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:44.839 latest bit of trouble that these two companies have faced 105 00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:46.079 in the last two years. 106 00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.480 Well, what's some of the other that they've faced in 107 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:49.319 the last two years. 108 00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.720 Well, you know how stuff is so cheap. Having shopped there, 109 00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:55.920 you see how low cost the stuff is. Well, Senator 110 00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:59.000 Marco Rubio Florida says that that's because it's made with 111 00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:03.959 slave labor where these two companies are based. That's his suspicion, 112 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.920 and so he wants an investigation done on that aspect 113 00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.879 of it. You've also got the data problems. There have 114 00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.319 been data breaches at both of these companies. That's not 115 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.560 to be unexpected, I suppose, considering how big the companies are. 116 00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:20.120 But at least one lawsuit claims that TIMU will plant 117 00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:23.000 malware in the devices of users and then track the 118 00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:27.839 movements of those users to the detriment of American security 119 00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:31.600 because again, these companies are based in China, so lots 120 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.360 of issues. And so you ordered stuff, what did you 121 00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:35.639 order from the If I could ask, you. 122 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.240 Know, I think that I ordered. I'm trying to remember. 123 00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:39.959 I haven't done a lot. I think I got a 124 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:43.120 pair of sparky shoes for my mom, Okay, And I 125 00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:45.199 think I got a couple of T shirts that were 126 00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:47.800 just like so stupid expensive, like I said, I mean 127 00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:52.759 like two dollars and they're not awful quality. 128 00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:56.519 Yeah, did you notice anything when you open up the box? No, 129 00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:58.399 Because I was one thing that I ordered from them 130 00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.399 a couple of years ago. The item, I don't remember 131 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:04.279 what it was. I think it was something related to 132 00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:08.199 my bike that I ride, and it came opened the 133 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:10.279 box and it wasn't what I ordered anyway. It was 134 00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.720 just sort of random stuff thrown in there. 135 00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:13.879 You like bonus gifts. 136 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:17.240 Yeah, that kind of thing, Just weird things that kind 137 00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:20.040 of random. Looked like they emptied out their glove compartment 138 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.000 or something and dumped it into a box. But it 139 00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:27.079 wreaked of gasoline, oh, or like petroleum or some chemical 140 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.839 petroleum like chemical. And other people I've known who have 141 00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:33.519 received things like this, either unsolicited or the item that 142 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:37.639 they ordered, they've noticed the same thing, the sort of weird, powerful, 143 00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:41.680 stinky gasoline smell that comes with it. And I don't 144 00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:43.920 know what it is. But that's beside the point. I 145 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:45.759 imagine that it so are their hell concerns. 146 00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:48.959 Maybe, Okay, that's good to know too. Now I had 147 00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:51.000 heard and I don't know if it's all conspiracy theory. 148 00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:53.439 And one of the reasons they were offering the prices 149 00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:56.680 so low is they didn't care that they weren't making 150 00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:59.519 money on them, that they wanted to grab enough of 151 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.040 the market share that they would force other companies out 152 00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:02.600 of business. 153 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.639 Right, potential loss leaders situation, right, lose money. 154 00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:08.399 Like the whole site is a lost leader though, right. 155 00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:11.319 Like the chickens, the roasted chickens at Costco, they sell 156 00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:13.720 them super at a loss to get people to the 157 00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.800 back of the store. Could be the same thing, I suppose. 158 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:18.600 And you know, the Chinese know what they're doing there, 159 00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:23.319 and and so it's a good question. And so what 160 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:26.240 could the United States do about this? Could you know, 161 00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:29.319 Congress tried to block TikTok and you know another company, 162 00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.480 foreign company, Chinese company from doing business here. Could the 163 00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:35.759 same thing happened with Timu and Shean? Maybe? And by 164 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.960 the way, these companies are both third party sellers. It's 165 00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.039 just like Amazon. Right, there's there there as kind of 166 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.399 a clearinghouse for people who are selling items or at Sea. 167 00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:49.000 They come on to the site and they sell them 168 00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:53.120 there because people shop Amazon or shan or at Sea 169 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:56.600 or Timu, and so these companies say, well, you know, 170 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.120 we're trying to regulate our third party vendors, but what 171 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:01.360 can we do about it? 172 00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.519 Yeah, well it'll be interesting to see, because yeah, how 173 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:06.840 do you regulate that. I mean, it's a website. We 174 00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:08.879 can go there, we can buy stuff or are you 175 00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:10.519 going to get arrested if you buy stuff? 176 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:14.759 Well, it usually doesn't extend that far. It's normally sanctions 177 00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:19.720 or regulations against the seller. But does that mean Timu 178 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:23.519 as the seller or you know Joe's tire shop in 179 00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:26.360 Beijing where you ordered something and it was sold through Timu? 180 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:26.960 Who knows? 181 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.519 Okay, So Jim. Then the practical, because we always like 182 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:32.679 to give a little bit of help. How can people 183 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:38.399 protect themselves from potentially dangerous products or unscrupulous business practices? 184 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:41.759 Yeah, that's the tough part. I mean, and especially with 185 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.000 this like baby rail thing, this padded baby rail thing. 186 00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:47.559 Probably a lot of people didn't realize that Congress had 187 00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.759 banned those things a couple of years ago because of 188 00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.080 potential dangers to kids. And you know, I suspect TIMU 189 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:55.919 was going to make the same argument. We didn't know 190 00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:58.840 about your ban, but we're going to We'll take it 191 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:00.879 out the website. Would the team of this morning to 192 00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:03.559 see if I could still find those padded rails. They're 193 00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:06.480 not there, at least the ones that are mentioned by 194 00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.159 the Consumer Product Safety Commission. So just again, it's it's 195 00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:16.559 a matter of shopping carefully, realizing that this product that 196 00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:19.840 you're getting may or may not be on a prohibited 197 00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:23.000 list in this country or banded list. But you know, 198 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:26.480 it's just a matter of watching out, being a careful consumer. 199 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.080 Like everything, let the buyer beware. Just now, I'm going 200 00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:31.720 to go order something from Timo because I want to 201 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:33.440 see if I get that weird toxic smell. 202 00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:35.240 It's very strange. 203 00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:36.879 I'll open it outside. 204 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:42.200 Plastic, petroleum something and I don't know, but let's just 205 00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:43.519 hope you get what you order too. 206 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.879 Yeah, Okay, ABC's Jim Ryan. Thank you so much for 207 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:48.799 your time and your information. If you want to follow Jim, 208 00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:51.799 it's at Jim Ryan t X like Texas because he 209 00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:54.879 calls us from Texas. Thanks Jim. All right, here, let's 210 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:56.519 get back to some of the stories coming out of 211 00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:59.879 the KFI twenty four hour newsroom, Evacuation orders have been 212 00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.639 ungraded and warnings have been canceled in Riverside County, where 213 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:07.279 a wildfire threatened homes in good Hope near Paris. The 214 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.919 fire started yesterday afternoon and burned about one hundred and 215 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:12.639 thirty acres. It was twenty five percent surrounded as of 216 00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:16.159 last night. A federal grand jury has indicted an LA 217 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:19.480 County sheriff's deputy for allegedly using excessive force. 218 00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:22.360 The indictment says when Trevor Kirk Pepper sprayed and threw 219 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.840 a woman to the pavement, he violated her civil rights. 220 00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.360 In June of twenty twenty three, Kirk and another deputy 221 00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:30.639 responded to a grocery store in Lancaster after employees said 222 00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.080 the woman and her husband stole items from the store. 223 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:36.720 Video shows the encounter between Kirk and the couple. The indictment, 224 00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:40.120 issued yesterday charges Kirk with a single count of deprivation 225 00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:43.039 of rights under color of law. The husband was cited 226 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:45.679 for resisting an officer and petty theft. The wife was 227 00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:49.279 cited for assaulting an officer. Steve Gregory ka If I knowws. 228 00:11:49.399 --> 00:11:52.639 Police in Munich, Germany have fatally shot a man near 229 00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.360 a museum on the city's Nazi era history and the 230 00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:59.600 Israeli Consulate. The man had fired at police this morning 231 00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:02.320 before he was killed. Police officers had been alerted to 232 00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:05.480 a person carrying a long gun near downtown Munich. They 233 00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.039 say there's no sign anyone else was hurt during the shootout. 234 00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:12.240 The consulate was closed at the time. The head of 235 00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:16.480 the United Nations Nuclear watchdog agency has visited a nuclear 236 00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.039 plant in southern Ukraine a day after, saying the situation 237 00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:24.519 there is very fragile. The plant's operator says artillery shelling 238 00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:29.559 Monday damaged the plant's power access and blames Russia. International 239 00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:34.759 Atomic Energy Director Raphael Grossi says it's a tense situation. 240 00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:37.600 There's a war going on, so we have to prevent 241 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.759 a nuclear accident. The plant is the biggest nuclear power 242 00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:44.360 plant in Europe and one of the ten largest in 243 00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:53.320 the world. Green Day had to leave stage for several 244 00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.960 minutes during a show in Detroit because of a drone Polisse. 245 00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:59.919 Someone flew the drone into Camerica Park Baseball Stadium at 246 00:12:59.919 --> 00:13:03.279 about fifteen minutes into the show. Last night, police caught 247 00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:06.720 and detained the guy piloting the drone. He was outside 248 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:10.399 the stadium and the show went on as it must. 249 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:15.120 La County Sheriff's deputies have begun patrolling the voluntary evacuation 250 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:19.080 zone in Rancho Palace Vertes. The deputies in vehicles, on 251 00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:22.440 ATVs and on horseback are there to deter break ins 252 00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:25.799 and vandalism. More than two hundred residents have had their 253 00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:28.480 power and gas service cut off because of the ground 254 00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:31.639 shifting under their homes, and many have left the area. 255 00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:34.440 Governor Knewsom declared a state of emergency for Rancho Palace 256 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:37.759 Verties on Tuesday. A man's been stabbed on his way 257 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:40.919 to catch a Metro train in Baldwin Hills. LAPD says 258 00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:43.679 it happened near the Metro station at Jefferson and Los 259 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.679 Sienaga yesterday morning. The man stabbed was taken to the 260 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:50.159 hospital with minor injuries. The attacker has not been found. 261 00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:54.320 Spirit Airlines is going to start offering new service from 262 00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:58.200 Burbank to San Jose. The direct flights are currently being 263 00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:01.840 offered at an introductory part of thirty nine dollars one 264 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:06.200 way to fly between September twenty fifth and November nineteenth, 265 00:14:06.519 --> 00:14:09.720 Spirit and Southwest Airlines are now the only two airlines 266 00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:14.200 that fly direct between Burbank and San Jose. At six 267 00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:17.080 oh five, it's handled on the news. Your next COVID 268 00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:20.600 vaccine could cost you two hundred bucks. Bill's going to 269 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:23.279 tell you about that. Right now. Let's say good morning 270 00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:28.600 to ABC's Crime and Terror analyst Brad Garrett. Unfortunately, this 271 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:30.519 is the time that I get to talk to you, Brad, 272 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:33.440 it's when something awful happens. So let's get started with 273 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:36.240 what we know about the school shooting at Appalachi High 274 00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:38.720 School in Georgia, and then what do we know about 275 00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:39.120 the shooter. 276 00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:44.919 So if we go back to May of twenty twenty three, Amy, 277 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:50.120 he was looming in an adjoining county, Jackson County, Georgia, 278 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:56.559 and apparently the FBI got an anonymous tip that someone 279 00:14:57.240 --> 00:15:02.039 was threatening to commit a mascool. They were able to 280 00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:06.279 track that lead back to this kid's house in Jackson County. 281 00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:09.679 He would have been thirteen at that point. He according 282 00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:11.879 to law enforcement, he was interviewed I'm going to presume 283 00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:16.159 by local law enforcement, the Sheriff's Office Jackson County. The 284 00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:19.600 father was interviewed thirteen year old was interviewed. The thirteen 285 00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:22.759 year old denied that he had made these threats. The 286 00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:25.120 father stated he had a number of long guns in 287 00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:29.279 the house, not further defined, and apparently they were not 288 00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:32.600 able to corroborate through a gaming nap because that's where 289 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:36.360 the post were made that this kid actually made them. 290 00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:38.360 I think they believe he did make them, but it's 291 00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:40.600 another one of those that something gets deleted. I don't 292 00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:43.559 know the particulars, but the short answer is it's sort 293 00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:46.440 of the whole thing sort of went away. And then 294 00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.799 the kid moves next door to Barrow County where his 295 00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:55.759 high school, his new high school is located. If you 296 00:15:55.919 --> 00:16:01.080 fast forward to a clash yesterday only is based on 297 00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:05.840 student interviews that were covered by the media. The student 298 00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:08.960 was sitting next to him, and she said, apparently he 299 00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:12.360 never talked in class. He skipped class a lot, and 300 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:14.720 he got up and walked out the back door. Now 301 00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:20.039 the back door apparently this classroom goes outside, and he 302 00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:23.399 wanted to try to get back in a few minutes later, 303 00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:28.080 the student that saw him wouldn't let him in because 304 00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:30.360 he had a gun. So he goes to the next 305 00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:35.080 classroom over gets in However, he gets in and starts shooting, 306 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:40.200 and fortunately that school had these locked door systems, and 307 00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:43.960 they also the teachers apparently have badges with a button 308 00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:47.320 on them that they can push that alerts law enforcement 309 00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:49.639 that there might be a mass shooting going on. Now, 310 00:16:49.639 --> 00:16:52.440 there's three cops assigned to that school. I think they 311 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.399 all come running and they confront him and he gives up. 312 00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:59.679 That's why he's still alive. But the fill in the 313 00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:02.720 black that I think you're asking me about, were there 314 00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:04.920 any red flags? What did he say before, did he 315 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.680 talk to students? Where did the weapon come from? We 316 00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:08.880 just don't know yet. 317 00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:12.480 But it appears that it's going to be kind of 318 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:15.599 a rare opportunity because he didn't kill himself or he 319 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:20.279 wasn't killed, And just from watching the networks and stuff, 320 00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:22.759 they were saying that he's he's been talking or at 321 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:24.559 least they're talking to him. 322 00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:28.759 Yeah, I think you know, it's not uncommon, no matter 323 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:31.400 what their age, of people who commit these type of 324 00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:35.279 shootings are proud of them initially until they realize what 325 00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:39.079 they're they're up against. And my guess is he has 326 00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:42.160 and my guess is the parents were probably present because 327 00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:46.160 of his age, so so we'll see. I think we'll 328 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:49.000 know more about mindset, we'll know more about where the 329 00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:53.160 weapon came from, we may know more about planning, you know, 330 00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:57.160 all the things that go into what typically happens prior 331 00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:58.440 to these events occurring. 332 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:02.759 I know that most people don't agree with me on this, Brad, 333 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:05.119 but I would love your take on this. You said 334 00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:10.839 that he initially was found out on a gaming site. 335 00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.119 My theory is it's probably not the only thing, but 336 00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:19.759 it's one of the contributing factors. Is that the kids 337 00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:23.680 are playing these hyper violent games and going around and 338 00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:28.519 killing everybody, and it desensitizes them, so they I think 339 00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:31.920 they're more likely to actually do something like this if 340 00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:33.680 they're already prone to it. I mean, I'm not saying 341 00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:36.680 like everyday kids are, but maybe kids who have trouble 342 00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:39.039 with social skills or have some sort of a mental 343 00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:43.720 health issue or something like that that that contributes to that. 344 00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:46.160 Have you guys found that at all? Is there anything 345 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:46.799 that ties. 346 00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:46.960 That to it. 347 00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:51.440 There's certainly been studies done on that, and there is 348 00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:55.640 a belief where you take a kid like you described 349 00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:59.960 that's already troubled and maybe already having dark or violent 350 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:05.119 thoughts and they end up fusing fantasy with reality. And 351 00:19:05.160 --> 00:19:08.119 that's kind of what you're talking about, where that when 352 00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:10.839 you go into a school with an AR fifteen, which 353 00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:16.160 is now the most popular weapon in America, that he 354 00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.279 you know, is is he now in a video game? 355 00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:22.200 In other words, is it not real to him while 356 00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:25.839 he's doing it? Because you know, in most mass shootings, 357 00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.960 the shooters that survive will tell you they're not even 358 00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:31.799 thinking they're shooting human beings. It's all about anger, rage 359 00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.039 and power. They're and they're they're being powerful for a 360 00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:39.680 few minutes. But yeah, it may be something to that. 361 00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:40.920 Is it relevant to this kid? 362 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.759 We don't know yet, Okay, And and it's helpful that 363 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:48.200 maybe they can get in his head and maybe get 364 00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:51.079 some answers. But like you know we've talked about before, 365 00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:56.319 these things are so senseless and you can't predict necessarily 366 00:19:56.400 --> 00:19:57.559 what's going to do. I mean, what do you do 367 00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:00.680 if they come and question the kid and they say, oh, 368 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:02.279 we think you made that threat and they throw a 369 00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.839 kid in jail for not actually doing anything. 370 00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:10.039 Yeah, I mean, this is not I don't think going 371 00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:16.000 to realistic cat happen. Going back reportory, right, you're not 372 00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:17.920 going to throw them in jail. And you know, the 373 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:21.279 real question is can you keep track of kids like this? 374 00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:24.119 And the short answer is no. I mean, if they're 375 00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:29.640 not under some juvenile court judges wing, or they're not 376 00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:33.480 on probation or parole, or they're not connected to some 377 00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:38.160 mental health facility that maybe mobiley checks on folks that 378 00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:40.759 are troubled. If you don't have any of those things 379 00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:45.160 going on, when you get to rural America, probably none 380 00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:47.720 of those are going to be going on. Not their 381 00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:51.400 false is the reality of the situation. You're going to 382 00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:54.240 have kids fall through the cracks because, let's face it, 383 00:20:54.279 --> 00:20:57.519 if I laid out twenty five school mass shooters, there's 384 00:20:57.559 --> 00:20:59.599 going to be red lights almost with every one of them. 385 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:01.160 But who knew about them? 386 00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:02.680 That's the real issue. 387 00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:09.759 It's frustrating at least, in tragic at best. So Brad Garrett, 388 00:21:09.799 --> 00:21:11.880 thank you so much for the insight and the information. 389 00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:14.319 As always, we appreciate it.

A man arrested 394 00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:28.680 for a fatal crash in Fontana who escaped from a 395 00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:33.319 hospital has been caught. The CHP says Noah Benuelos was 396 00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:35.960 caught about twelve thirty this morning. He was driving a 397 00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:39.160 white Jeep Cherokee yesterday when he was pulled over for 398 00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:42.039 speeding on the fifteen near Sierra Avenue, but then he 399 00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:45.799 took off.
