Speaker 1: We choose to go to the moon and miss decay
Speaker 1: and do the other things not because they are easy,
Speaker 1: but because they are hard. Because that goes will serve
Speaker 1: to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills,
Speaker 1: because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept.
Speaker 2: One we are.
Speaker 1: Unwilling to postpone and one we intend to win. And
Speaker 1: the others two.

Speaker 3: At one small stamp for man.
Speaker 2: This is Event Horizon and I am your host, Mark
Speaker 2: Anthony Peterson. This is the podcast where we take a
Speaker 2: walk into the paranormal with a splash of conspiracy. This
Speaker 2: is the podcast that would be born if David Ike
Speaker 2: and the X Files had a baby. Guess. Welcome to
Speaker 2: episode eighty nine, entitled George Floyd's Murder was a Hit.
Speaker 2: George Floyd's murder was a hit. Yes, guys, we are
Speaker 2: knee deep in book three of this podcast and we're
Speaker 2: tackling every conspiracy out there, and today we take on
Speaker 2: the George Floyd murder. But you know what we gotta
Speaker 2: do before we dig into the podcast. Yes, I gotta
Speaker 2: give you the disclaimer. I am not a religious expert.
Speaker 2: I get thrown out of more churches than I get
Speaker 2: welcomed into. I am not a physicist, theoretical otherwise. But
Speaker 2: I did stay at a holiday in Express and I
Speaker 2: think that gives me the right to do a little research,
Speaker 2: apply first principles, and bring what I learned back here
Speaker 2: to you. And I reserve the right to drink some
Speaker 2: kombucha when I get a little bit crazy. Okay, we're
Speaker 2: jumping into the George Floyd murder that happened on May
Speaker 2: twenty fifth, twenty twenty four years ago, and many thought
Speaker 2: it was more of a random act, but I don't think.
Speaker 4: So let's break this down. George Floyd a black man.
Speaker 4: His death sparked ongoing protests when Derek Chauvin, identified by
Speaker 4: local media as the officer in the videotape kneeling on
Speaker 4: Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes. Here's what some of
Speaker 4: you may already know. Floyd and Chauvin worked at the
Speaker 4: same nightclub, El Nuevo Rorio, a club owned by Maya
Speaker 4: Santa Maria located in Minneapolis South Side. Both men worked security,
Speaker 4: Floyd as a bouncer and Chauvin as an outside security
Speaker 4: and how he got to be security as an interesting
Speaker 4: tale that kind of connects the docks to how this
Speaker 4: thing may have all come together. Let's start first with
Speaker 4: breaking down the nightclub, Il Nueve Rodeo. As I mentioned,
Speaker 4: the owner is Maya Santa Maria. She's a singer, waitress,
Speaker 4: music promoter and has a degree in anthropology. Shortly after
Speaker 4: opening the club back in two thousand and six, they
Speaker 4: were pushing to close it and yank her liquor license.
Speaker 4: That's not uncommon, but let's go a little further. She
Speaker 4: was slapped with fines because she hosted more people than
Speaker 4: the fire code allowed, which again is not out of
Speaker 4: the ordinary. But she was advertising the business as a
Speaker 4: nightclub when it was only licensed as a restaurant because
Speaker 4: in the community where she opened, they weren't allowing nightclubs.
Speaker 4: You had to get a special permit and exception to
Speaker 4: run a nightclub, but she was advertising the restaurant as
Speaker 4: a nightclub for the Latino community because, in her own words,
Speaker 4: they needed a place to blow off some steam. She
Speaker 4: also got questioned about selling more alcohol than food. Again,
Speaker 4: because her license only allowed for her to be a restaurant,
Speaker 4: she was acting more like a nightclub. Her license required
Speaker 4: that sixty percent of the receipts be food, and she
Speaker 4: clearly was not doing that. Again, no alarm bell so
Speaker 4: far from what you hear. But as we get deeper
Speaker 4: into the story, you will see why some of this
Speaker 4: matter matters. December of that year, city officials convened to
Speaker 4: determine that Elnueve Rodeo's liquor license should not be renewed.
Speaker 4: Santa Maria agreed in order to get the license, to
Speaker 4: submit her food and alcohol receipts to the council. In
Speaker 4: April of two thousand and eight, that's where the stuff
Speaker 4: started to get really interesting. Three people were shot outside
Speaker 4: the Dennings, which is right across the street from the nightclub.
Speaker 4: A local newspaper, The Longfellow No Comas Messenger, connected the
Speaker 4: shooting to the nightclub's patrons, though the police was not
Speaker 4: able to make that connection. That's the first alarm bell
Speaker 4: you should see going off, because who worked right outside
Speaker 4: of the nightclub parked in his car providing security to
Speaker 4: the club, Derek Chauvin, if the longfellow no comas messenger
Speaker 4: was able to connect the dots between the patrons that
Speaker 4: were involved in the shooting and the police were not,
Speaker 4: what was he doing? Where was he at? You see?
Speaker 4: Elnuave Rodeo was required to get the extra security as
Speaker 4: one of the additional steps to get their liquor license
Speaker 4: back and to get their business license back, and so
Speaker 4: Chauven accepted the job and worked as security outside of
Speaker 4: the club for nearly seventeen years. In seventeen years, you're
Speaker 4: going to learn who most of the patrons are, who
Speaker 4: are going in and out of the club. You're going
Speaker 4: to notice everything that's going on on the streets. You're
Speaker 4: going to see patrons leave the club and go to
Speaker 4: the Dennis across the street to get breakfast. But in
Speaker 4: the case of this shooting, Derek Chauvin could not make
Speaker 4: the connections that the local newspaper was able to make.
Speaker 4: That should be the first flag. On November fourteenth, two
Speaker 4: thousand and eight, there were multiple police calls associated with
Speaker 4: the nightclub. Incidents ranged from shots fired and officer involved shooting,
Speaker 4: several felony assaults on patrons and staff, numerous misdemeanors obstructing,
Speaker 4: disorderly conduct, assault, and theft. That same month, the city
Speaker 4: compiled its case against the nightclub and had a stack
Speaker 4: of police reports twenty eight reports in two thousand and
Speaker 4: eight and six from two thousand and nine. The city
Speaker 4: attorney on the case described the business as having quote
Speaker 4: unquote and an ordly high number of incidents of criminal behavior. Now,
Speaker 4: remember Derek Chauvin was brought in in two thousand and
Speaker 4: six to provide security outside the club, and yet the
Speaker 4: criminal element and criminal activity outside the club continued to escalate.
Speaker 4: I know what you're saying. You're saying, Mark, this does
Speaker 4: not prove that George Floyd's murder was a hit. Just
Speaker 4: because there was a high amount of crime associated with
Speaker 4: the club where he was a bouncer, where Derek Chauvin
Speaker 4: was the security in front of the club, where both
Speaker 4: men had overlapping shifts and knew each other, doesn't prove it, right.
Speaker 4: But think about the type of crime that's happening, shootings, assaults, thefts,
Speaker 4: officer related shootings. This is starting to tell you that
Speaker 4: this feels like a turf war, like rival gangs running
Speaker 4: up on each other at the club and shooting at
Speaker 4: each other. Think about your own cities and clubs and
Speaker 4: realize that in your own newspapers they're reporting the gang
Speaker 4: activity that's occurring at some of these nightclubs. And there's
Speaker 4: a reason why they're shooting at each other, And there's
Speaker 4: a reason why it's a turf war because the club
Speaker 4: itself is the place where they're making their money. And
Speaker 4: this is where the plot thickens. Let's jump into Derek Chauvin.
Speaker 4: Records show that the forty four year olds Chauvene initially
Speaker 4: studied cooking before taking courses in law enforcement and doing
Speaker 4: two stints in the army as a military police officer
Speaker 4: in the nineties. He served at Fort Benning in Georgia
Speaker 4: and then later in Germany. Chauvin became a Minnesota police
Speaker 4: officer in two thousand and one. Had seventeen complaints against him,
Speaker 4: including one for pulling a woman out of her car
Speaker 4: after a speeding stop in which she was doing ten
Speaker 4: miles over the speed limit. Interesting he won two medals
Speaker 4: of Valor, though I don't know why you would give
Speaker 4: them to him, because in the one instance in two
Speaker 4: thousand and six, he was part of a group of
Speaker 4: officers who opened fire on a stabbing suspect who quote
Speaker 4: unquote pointed a gun at them. In the other in
Speaker 4: two thousand and eight, it was for domestic violence, where
Speaker 4: Chauvin broke down a bathroom door and shot the suspect
Speaker 4: in the stomach. In both cases he was given a
Speaker 4: Medal of Valor for shooting the victim. That doesn't make
Speaker 4: him a hit man, but it does start to show
Speaker 4: you that he is capable of performing a hit. He
Speaker 4: doesn't de escalate the situation, but can certainly escalate it
Speaker 4: and use terminal force. But that's not the key link
Speaker 4: that I want you to focus in on. Derek Chavan
Speaker 4: was married to Kelly Chavan, a Long immigrant who is
Speaker 4: the first Mong to win the Miss Minnesota Paget. Mongs
Speaker 4: are from Southeast Asia, typically southern China, Vietnam, or Laos.
Speaker 4: This is the key point I want you to focus
Speaker 4: in on because two of the other officers involved in
Speaker 4: the arrest of George Floyd were mong the same region
Speaker 4: in which Derek Chavan's wife is wrong. And that's going
Speaker 4: to make more sense as I dig a little deeper
Speaker 4: into this case. But I want to tell you one
Speaker 4: more thing about Derek Chavan. In twenty nineteen, he single
Speaker 4: handedly apprehended a group of gang members while working as
Speaker 4: the off duty security guard at Elnueve Rodeo. Here's why
Speaker 4: that's kind of wow. Everyone described Chauvin as a man
Speaker 4: willing to escalate the situation, used pepper spray when it
Speaker 4: wasn't needed, shoot when he didn't need to shoot. In
Speaker 4: this case, he single handedly, without any other officer, apprehended
Speaker 4: not one but a gang, a group of gang members
Speaker 4: while serving as that same security officer who could not
Speaker 4: make the connection between the shootings at Denny's across the street.
Speaker 4: If you're not picking up the clues, then you're not listening.
Speaker 4: Derek Chauvin was probably involved in a gang, or at
Speaker 4: a minimum, he was being paid by a gang to
Speaker 4: help them control the turf. The turf called Elnueve Rodeo,
Speaker 4: the nightclub where they probably distributed their product, in the
Speaker 4: central hub of all of their illicit activity. Okay, well,
Speaker 4: I did it a little bit more digging, and I've
Speaker 4: tried to figure out who the gangs are in Minneapolis,
Speaker 4: and one of the biggest gangs is a long gang
Speaker 4: called Menace of Destruction MOD, formerly known as Masters of Destruction.
Speaker 4: Hong gangs were created in nineteen eighty eight and today
Speaker 4: they are active in every state with a large long community,
Speaker 4: including California and the midwestern United States, including Mina Soda
Speaker 4: with a large contingent in Minneapolis. Gangs are known for prostitution,
Speaker 4: money laundering, distributing of narcotics, and according to the DEA,
Speaker 4: they are also known for counterfeiting, counterfeiting goods, products, and money.
Speaker 4: It's starting to come together now, right, It's starting to
Speaker 4: make a little more sense to you, guys. I didn't
Speaker 4: stop digging there. Here's what else. I found out. A
Speaker 4: national drug ring based in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis
Speaker 4: and Saint Paul was busted in twenty twelve. They were
Speaker 4: linked to the Cartel La Familia out of Mexico and
Speaker 4: they were smuggling in millions of dollars of methanthetamine from
Speaker 4: Mexico to the Twin Cities area and then distributed out
Speaker 4: into Minnesota. The drugs went through a local member of
Speaker 4: the cartel and then distributed to Yes, you got it,
Speaker 4: the Menace of Destruction gang, the mong gang that I
Speaker 4: just mentioned. Oh and by the way, what is Lae Familia,
Speaker 4: also known for counterfeiting. Here's what you need to know
Speaker 4: about methamphetamine. It's no longer made by cooks and makeshift
Speaker 4: labs in people's neighborhoods and houses like you saw in
Speaker 4: Breaking Bad. According to the DEA, it has become the
Speaker 4: preferred drug of Mexican cartels because of the pressure that
Speaker 4: has been put on the opiates, They've switched over to
Speaker 4: methamphetamines and they are mass producing high quality quantities of
Speaker 4: the drug and pushing it into markets where they had
Speaker 4: previously not pushed any product, including the Northeast. I read
Speaker 4: a white paper on the distribution of methamphetamines, and all
Speaker 4: of these sources are going to be in the show notes.
Speaker 4: I don't want you to think that I'm just sitting
Speaker 4: here rattling things off. I did the research. I want
Speaker 4: you to go back and repeat the research and see
Speaker 4: if you see the threads that I'm pulling on.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 4: Methamphetamine, according to the DEA, is a street drug in
Speaker 4: many parts of the country, but in the Northeast, methamphetamine
Speaker 4: functions as a quote unquote club drug. And here's what
Speaker 4: their report says, quote Methamphetamine use has been found in
Speaker 4: a range of club subcultures, including electronic dance music, club rais,
Speaker 4: and circuit parties. Now, I want you to go to
Speaker 4: Google and put in Elnueve Rodeo and look at the
Speaker 4: description of the nightclub. It fits the bill for what
Speaker 4: is described here by the DEA. Remember now, Chauvein shows
Speaker 4: up to arrest George Floyd with two other individuals from
Speaker 4: the Long community after being told that he was passing
Speaker 4: off a counterfeit twenty dollars bill to purchase a pack
Speaker 4: of cigarettes. Eleven year veteran and Native Mong speaker Tao
Speaker 4: Thoe was one of the officers on the scene, and
Speaker 4: he is the subject of six complaints, compared to Derek Chauvin,
Speaker 4: who had seventeen. Both officers for their tenure have an
Speaker 4: abnormally high number of complaints against them. These guys weren't
Speaker 4: operating as officers. They were operating as members of this
Speaker 4: Mong gang. I dug a little deeper and you will
Speaker 4: see the link in the show notes where the deea
Speaker 4: list out the occupations that gang members have when they're
Speaker 4: not working for the gang, and the Minutes of Destruction's
Speaker 4: primary occupations include military and law enforcement when they're not
Speaker 4: doing work for the gang. These guys are smart. They're
Speaker 4: just like corporations who put their people in government and
Speaker 4: then bring them back to the corporation, cross pollinating it
Speaker 4: so they make sure they win all the contracts. These
Speaker 4: guys are doing the same thing, So it would make
Speaker 4: sense that Menace of Destruction would have officers who were
Speaker 4: gang members that give them the inside track to help
Speaker 4: them make sure they maintain their muscle in the areas
Speaker 4: where they want to distribute their product. Remember, they had
Speaker 4: links to Mexican drug cartels like Familiar the methamphetamines that
Speaker 4: flew from mex to go into Minneapolis, and both groups
Speaker 4: were known for counterfeiting products and money. So when George
Speaker 4: Floyd was arrested on May twenty fifth, twenty twenty, the
Speaker 4: video showed that Chauvin was holding his knee to his neck,
Speaker 4: while Lane was holding Floyd's legs and Keong was holding
Speaker 4: his back while Paul, the officer with the six complaints,
Speaker 4: stood between the officers and onlookers. According to charging documents,
Speaker 4: individuals have already question why you arrest him, put him
Speaker 4: in the car, and then take him out of the car.
Speaker 4: Pin him to the ground, put your knee on his neck,
Speaker 4: hold his legs, and hold his back down while the
Speaker 4: fourth officer keeps the crowd at a safe distance. This
Speaker 4: wasn't an arrest. I think this was a hit because
Speaker 4: George Floyd was going to expose not just a meth
Speaker 4: amphetamine ring which had just been busted in twenty twelve,
Speaker 4: but he was going to expose evidence of a counterfeiting
Speaker 4: ring that is probably linked to menace of destruction in
Speaker 4: La Familia. There's something else really stinky about what's going
Speaker 4: on in Minnesota. There's a link in the show notes
Speaker 4: to an article where law enforcement is complaining about the
Speaker 4: state's district attorney and his unwillingness to prosecute gangs. In fact,
Speaker 4: many of the judges in Minnesota are complaining about the
Speaker 4: DA's unwillingness to prosecute gangs, including one judge who law
Speaker 4: lost his daughter to opiate addiction. I'm going to put
Speaker 4: a link in the show notes to a book called
Speaker 4: Killing Uncle Sam. For those of you who are serious
Speaker 4: about this topic. You should read this book because it
Speaker 4: explains how the CIA is using these sorts of clubs, gangs,
Speaker 4: and drug routes to finance its private wars all around
Speaker 4: the world, and that when one area dries up, be
Speaker 4: it the opiates, they find another avenue and another drug
Speaker 4: and another route to pipe their product and to get
Speaker 4: the money they need to finance these wars. Now, all
Speaker 4: of this started with Dulles way back with OSS and
Speaker 4: their attempts to finance private wars after World War II.
Speaker 4: And guess where the drugs came from that Dulles used
Speaker 4: to finance his private wars back then. Yeah, the Long
Speaker 4: community Southeast Asia. And so those drugs then were piped
Speaker 4: into black communities via jazz clubs, believe it or not,
Speaker 4: and started an addiction and drug culture that has ruined
Speaker 4: the black community. That's not me saying it, that's what's
Speaker 4: laid out by Paul Williams in Killing Uncle Sam. In
Speaker 4: Paul Williams's book, he outlines how routes were carved through
Speaker 4: the South and that drugs were run all the way
Speaker 4: up through Mina, Arkansas, where it was piped into the Northeast,
Speaker 4: and that many times the shipments of drugs. We're protected
Speaker 4: by local law enforcement. You can't make these things up.
Speaker 4: Do I expect the media to do this kind of
Speaker 4: research on this case?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 4: Do I expect the investigators to do this kind of research. No,
Speaker 4: because just like the JFK killing, they have their man,
Speaker 4: they have something that appeases the public, and they're going
Speaker 4: to end that case right where we see it, with
Speaker 4: a group of officers and one dead black man. But
Speaker 4: as you can see, there are many more layers to
Speaker 4: this case, layers that I don't think anyone wants to
Speaker 4: peel back and discover America seemly underbelly. I hope many
Speaker 4: of you take the time to go through the show notes.
Speaker 4: I hope many of you take the time to step
Speaker 4: back and ask yourself the obvious questions. These two men
Speaker 4: knew each other, They worked with each other for over
Speaker 4: a year, both in security. There's no way a bouncer
Speaker 4: would not have had to throw someone out the club
Speaker 4: and come across the security working right outside the front door.
Speaker 4: What caused this action, in my opinion, was some of
Speaker 4: the activity that went on in that club found its
Speaker 4: way into Floyd's hand. A counterfeit twenty dollars bill, and
Speaker 4: the only reason an officer would escalate that to the
Speaker 4: point of wanting to execute a man despite the pleas
Speaker 4: that he was making in front of the public who
Speaker 4: all had cell phones and could record the incident, is
Speaker 4: that he intended for this man to die and intended
Speaker 4: for the link to the evidence that this man may
Speaker 4: have represented to die with him. That's what I'm alleging.
Speaker 4: But I want you to do the homework. I want
Speaker 4: you to go through the articles and see the threads
Speaker 4: that are woven through this incident. A club located near
Speaker 4: the Third Precinct where Chavon worked with a sketchy history
Speaker 4: with lots of gunfire with officer related shootings, none of
Speaker 4: which could be linked back to the club where Chavon worked.
Speaker 4: Outside the club, he was protecting that turf because he
Speaker 4: may have been involved in the activity that was going
Speaker 4: on inside that club and linked to the mong gangs
Speaker 4: that are distributing narcotics and counterfeit bills in the in
Speaker 4: Cities area. Guys, I'm hearing these drums. I appreciate you listening.
