<v Speaker 1>We choose to go to the moon and miss decay

00:00:07.639 --> 00:00:10.880
<v Speaker 1>and do the other things not because they are easy,

3
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>but because they are hard. Because that goes will serve

4
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:20.719
<v Speaker 1>to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills,

5
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.039
<v Speaker 1>because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept.

6
00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:25.559
<v Speaker 2>One we are.

00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:29.519

00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:13.159
<v Speaker 3>about the turn blue.

17
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:31.560

00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:38.640
<v Speaker 2>This is Event Horizon and I am your host, Mark

20
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.959
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Peterson. This is the podcast where we take a

21
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 2>walk into the paranormal with a splash of conspiracy. This

22
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 2>is the podcast that would be born if David Ike

23
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:55.799
<v Speaker 2>and the X Files had a baby. Guess. Welcome to

24
00:01:55.879 --> 00:02:02.959
<v Speaker 2>episode eighty nine, entitled George Floyd's Murder was a Hit.

25
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:11.080
<v Speaker 2>George Floyd's murder was a hit. Yes, guys, we are

26
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:15.159
<v Speaker 2>knee deep in book three of this podcast and we're

27
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:20.000
<v Speaker 2>tackling every conspiracy out there, and today we take on

28
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:25.159
<v Speaker 2>the George Floyd murder. But you know what we gotta

29
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:29.919
<v Speaker 2>do before we dig into the podcast. Yes, I gotta

30
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:33.919
<v Speaker 2>give you the disclaimer. I am not a religious expert.

31
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:36.439
<v Speaker 2>I get thrown out of more churches than I get

32
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:42.479
<v Speaker 2>welcomed into. I am not a physicist, theoretical otherwise. But

33
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 2>I did stay at a holiday in Express and I

34
00:02:44.759 --> 00:02:47.599
<v Speaker 2>think that gives me the right to do a little research,

35
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:51.520
<v Speaker 2>apply first principles, and bring what I learned back here

36
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>to you. And I reserve the right to drink some

37
00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:01.400
<v Speaker 2>kombucha when I get a little bit crazy. Okay, we're

38
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:06.360
<v Speaker 2>jumping into the George Floyd murder that happened on May

39
00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:12.599
<v Speaker 2>twenty fifth, twenty twenty four years ago, and many thought

40
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:19.159
<v Speaker 2>it was more of a random act, but I don't think.

41
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:26.039
<v Speaker 4>So let's break this down. George Floyd a black man.

42
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:32.919
<v Speaker 4>His death sparked ongoing protests when Derek Chauvin, identified by

43
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:36.840
<v Speaker 4>local media as the officer in the videotape kneeling on

44
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:42.080
<v Speaker 4>Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes. Here's what some of

45
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 4>you may already know. Floyd and Chauvin worked at the

46
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:53.759
<v Speaker 4>same nightclub, El Nuevo Rorio, a club owned by Maya

47
00:03:53.840 --> 00:04:00.520
<v Speaker 4>Santa Maria located in Minneapolis South Side. Both men worked security,

48
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:07.960
<v Speaker 4>Floyd as a bouncer and Chauvin as an outside security

49
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:11.159
<v Speaker 4>and how he got to be security as an interesting

50
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.319
<v Speaker 4>tale that kind of connects the docks to how this

51
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.680
<v Speaker 4>thing may have all come together. Let's start first with

52
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:24.800
<v Speaker 4>breaking down the nightclub, Il Nueve Rodeo. As I mentioned,

53
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:29.079
<v Speaker 4>the owner is Maya Santa Maria. She's a singer, waitress,

54
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:35.079
<v Speaker 4>music promoter and has a degree in anthropology. Shortly after

55
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.720
<v Speaker 4>opening the club back in two thousand and six, they

56
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:43.000
<v Speaker 4>were pushing to close it and yank her liquor license.

57
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 4>That's not uncommon, but let's go a little further. She

58
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:51.360
<v Speaker 4>was slapped with fines because she hosted more people than

59
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:55.079
<v Speaker 4>the fire code allowed, which again is not out of

60
00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:59.000
<v Speaker 4>the ordinary. But she was advertising the business as a

61
00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 4>nightclub when it was only licensed as a restaurant because

62
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:09.519
<v Speaker 4>in the community where she opened, they weren't allowing nightclubs.

63
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:12.360
<v Speaker 4>You had to get a special permit and exception to

64
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 4>run a nightclub, but she was advertising the restaurant as

65
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 4>a nightclub for the Latino community because, in her own words,

66
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:26.079
<v Speaker 4>they needed a place to blow off some steam. She

67
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.600
<v Speaker 4>also got questioned about selling more alcohol than food. Again,

68
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:34.279
<v Speaker 4>because her license only allowed for her to be a restaurant,

69
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 4>she was acting more like a nightclub. Her license required

70
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 4>that sixty percent of the receipts be food, and she

71
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:49.079
<v Speaker 4>clearly was not doing that. Again, no alarm bell so

72
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:51.959
<v Speaker 4>far from what you hear. But as we get deeper

73
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.199
<v Speaker 4>into the story, you will see why some of this

74
00:05:54.319 --> 00:06:00.199
<v Speaker 4>matter matters. December of that year, city officials convened to

75
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:05.360
<v Speaker 4>determine that Elnueve Rodeo's liquor license should not be renewed.

76
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:10.279
<v Speaker 4>Santa Maria agreed in order to get the license, to

77
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:15.800
<v Speaker 4>submit her food and alcohol receipts to the council. In

78
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.279
<v Speaker 4>April of two thousand and eight, that's where the stuff

79
00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:23.240
<v Speaker 4>started to get really interesting. Three people were shot outside

80
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.720
<v Speaker 4>the Dennings, which is right across the street from the nightclub.

81
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:32.680
<v Speaker 4>A local newspaper, The Longfellow No Comas Messenger, connected the

82
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:37.480
<v Speaker 4>shooting to the nightclub's patrons, though the police was not

83
00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:42.120
<v Speaker 4>able to make that connection. That's the first alarm bell

84
00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:48.800
<v Speaker 4>you should see going off, because who worked right outside

85
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 4>of the nightclub parked in his car providing security to

86
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:03.360
<v Speaker 4>the club, Derek Chauvin, if the longfellow no comas messenger

87
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:07.480
<v Speaker 4>was able to connect the dots between the patrons that

88
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.720
<v Speaker 4>were involved in the shooting and the police were not,

89
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:17.399
<v Speaker 4>what was he doing? Where was he at? You see?

90
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:22.879
<v Speaker 4>Elnuave Rodeo was required to get the extra security as

91
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:26.399
<v Speaker 4>one of the additional steps to get their liquor license

92
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:31.120
<v Speaker 4>back and to get their business license back, and so

93
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:37.920
<v Speaker 4>Chauven accepted the job and worked as security outside of

94
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:44.120
<v Speaker 4>the club for nearly seventeen years. In seventeen years, you're

95
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:47.720
<v Speaker 4>going to learn who most of the patrons are, who

96
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.360
<v Speaker 4>are going in and out of the club. You're going

97
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:55.000
<v Speaker 4>to notice everything that's going on on the streets. You're

98
00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:57.879
<v Speaker 4>going to see patrons leave the club and go to

99
00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:02.480
<v Speaker 4>the Dennis across the street to get breakfast. But in

100
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 4>the case of this shooting, Derek Chauvin could not make

101
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:12.879
<v Speaker 4>the connections that the local newspaper was able to make.

102
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:16.600
<v Speaker 4>That should be the first flag. On November fourteenth, two

103
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:21.040
<v Speaker 4>thousand and eight, there were multiple police calls associated with

104
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:27.279
<v Speaker 4>the nightclub. Incidents ranged from shots fired and officer involved shooting,

105
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:35.960
<v Speaker 4>several felony assaults on patrons and staff, numerous misdemeanors obstructing,

106
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:41.360
<v Speaker 4>disorderly conduct, assault, and theft. That same month, the city

107
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.440
<v Speaker 4>compiled its case against the nightclub and had a stack

108
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:51.080
<v Speaker 4>of police reports twenty eight reports in two thousand and

109
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 4>eight and six from two thousand and nine. The city

110
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:58.759
<v Speaker 4>attorney on the case described the business as having quote

111
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:05.399
<v Speaker 4>unquote and an ordly high number of incidents of criminal behavior. Now,

112
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 4>remember Derek Chauvin was brought in in two thousand and

113
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:15.360
<v Speaker 4>six to provide security outside the club, and yet the

114
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 4>criminal element and criminal activity outside the club continued to escalate.

115
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.519
<v Speaker 4>I know what you're saying. You're saying, Mark, this does

116
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:29.399
<v Speaker 4>not prove that George Floyd's murder was a hit. Just

117
00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:33.279
<v Speaker 4>because there was a high amount of crime associated with

118
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:38.440
<v Speaker 4>the club where he was a bouncer, where Derek Chauvin

119
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:42.120
<v Speaker 4>was the security in front of the club, where both

120
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:49.799
<v Speaker 4>men had overlapping shifts and knew each other, doesn't prove it, right.

121
00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:57.120
<v Speaker 4>But think about the type of crime that's happening, shootings, assaults, thefts,

122
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.559
<v Speaker 4>officer related shootings. This is starting to tell you that

123
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:08.440
<v Speaker 4>this feels like a turf war, like rival gangs running

124
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:11.919
<v Speaker 4>up on each other at the club and shooting at

125
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:17.200
<v Speaker 4>each other. Think about your own cities and clubs and

126
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:21.960
<v Speaker 4>realize that in your own newspapers they're reporting the gang

127
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:27.120
<v Speaker 4>activity that's occurring at some of these nightclubs. And there's

128
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:29.480
<v Speaker 4>a reason why they're shooting at each other, And there's

129
00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:33.279
<v Speaker 4>a reason why it's a turf war because the club

130
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:38.159
<v Speaker 4>itself is the place where they're making their money. And

131
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:44.120
<v Speaker 4>this is where the plot thickens. Let's jump into Derek Chauvin.

132
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:48.279
<v Speaker 4>Records show that the forty four year olds Chauvene initially

133
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:53.519
<v Speaker 4>studied cooking before taking courses in law enforcement and doing

134
00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:57.320
<v Speaker 4>two stints in the army as a military police officer

135
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.320
<v Speaker 4>in the nineties. He served at Fort Benning in Georgia

136
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:06.799
<v Speaker 4>and then later in Germany. Chauvin became a Minnesota police

137
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:11.399
<v Speaker 4>officer in two thousand and one. Had seventeen complaints against him,

138
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 4>including one for pulling a woman out of her car

139
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:18.039
<v Speaker 4>after a speeding stop in which she was doing ten

140
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:23.799
<v Speaker 4>miles over the speed limit. Interesting he won two medals

141
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.639
<v Speaker 4>of Valor, though I don't know why you would give

142
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:30.159
<v Speaker 4>them to him, because in the one instance in two

143
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:32.559
<v Speaker 4>thousand and six, he was part of a group of

144
00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:38.679
<v Speaker 4>officers who opened fire on a stabbing suspect who quote

145
00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:42.679
<v Speaker 4>unquote pointed a gun at them. In the other in

146
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 4>two thousand and eight, it was for domestic violence, where

147
00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:49.919
<v Speaker 4>Chauvin broke down a bathroom door and shot the suspect

148
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.200
<v Speaker 4>in the stomach. In both cases he was given a

149
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 4>Medal of Valor for shooting the victim. That doesn't make

150
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:02.240
<v Speaker 4>him a hit man, but it does start to show

151
00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:06.600
<v Speaker 4>you that he is capable of performing a hit. He

152
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:11.519
<v Speaker 4>doesn't de escalate the situation, but can certainly escalate it

153
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:16.200
<v Speaker 4>and use terminal force. But that's not the key link

154
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:19.960
<v Speaker 4>that I want you to focus in on. Derek Chavan

155
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:25.000
<v Speaker 4>was married to Kelly Chavan, a Long immigrant who is

156
00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:30.279
<v Speaker 4>the first Mong to win the Miss Minnesota Paget. Mongs

157
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:36.480
<v Speaker 4>are from Southeast Asia, typically southern China, Vietnam, or Laos.

158
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:39.799
<v Speaker 4>This is the key point I want you to focus

159
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.519
<v Speaker 4>in on because two of the other officers involved in

160
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:49.519
<v Speaker 4>the arrest of George Floyd were mong the same region

161
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.840
<v Speaker 4>in which Derek Chavan's wife is wrong. And that's going

162
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:57.639
<v Speaker 4>to make more sense as I dig a little deeper

163
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.679
<v Speaker 4>into this case. But I want to tell you one

164
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:08.159
<v Speaker 4>more thing about Derek Chavan. In twenty nineteen, he single

165
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:13.639
<v Speaker 4>handedly apprehended a group of gang members while working as

166
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:20.360
<v Speaker 4>the off duty security guard at Elnueve Rodeo. Here's why

167
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:26.399
<v Speaker 4>that's kind of wow. Everyone described Chauvin as a man

168
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:30.200
<v Speaker 4>willing to escalate the situation, used pepper spray when it

169
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.679
<v Speaker 4>wasn't needed, shoot when he didn't need to shoot. In

170
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:38.080
<v Speaker 4>this case, he single handedly, without any other officer, apprehended

171
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:43.080
<v Speaker 4>not one but a gang, a group of gang members

172
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:47.240
<v Speaker 4>while serving as that same security officer who could not

173
00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:52.080
<v Speaker 4>make the connection between the shootings at Denny's across the street.

174
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:55.600
<v Speaker 4>If you're not picking up the clues, then you're not listening.

175
00:13:56.399 --> 00:14:01.639
<v Speaker 4>Derek Chauvin was probably involved in a gang, or at

176
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:06.360
<v Speaker 4>a minimum, he was being paid by a gang to

177
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:11.679
<v Speaker 4>help them control the turf. The turf called Elnueve Rodeo,

178
00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:17.399
<v Speaker 4>the nightclub where they probably distributed their product, in the

179
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:23.120
<v Speaker 4>central hub of all of their illicit activity. Okay, well,

180
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:24.759
<v Speaker 4>I did it a little bit more digging, and I've

181
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.360
<v Speaker 4>tried to figure out who the gangs are in Minneapolis,

182
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:31.759
<v Speaker 4>and one of the biggest gangs is a long gang

183
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:37.360
<v Speaker 4>called Menace of Destruction MOD, formerly known as Masters of Destruction.

184
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:43.639
<v Speaker 4>Hong gangs were created in nineteen eighty eight and today

185
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:48.120
<v Speaker 4>they are active in every state with a large long community,

186
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:54.240
<v Speaker 4>including California and the midwestern United States, including Mina Soda

187
00:14:55.440 --> 00:15:02.240
<v Speaker 4>with a large contingent in Minneapolis. Gangs are known for prostitution,

188
00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:09.159
<v Speaker 4>money laundering, distributing of narcotics, and according to the DEA,

189
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:18.440
<v Speaker 4>they are also known for counterfeiting, counterfeiting goods, products, and money.

190
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:23.679
<v Speaker 4>It's starting to come together now, right, It's starting to

191
00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:26.799
<v Speaker 4>make a little more sense to you, guys. I didn't

192
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:29.919
<v Speaker 4>stop digging there. Here's what else. I found out. A

193
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:33.600
<v Speaker 4>national drug ring based in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis

194
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.120
<v Speaker 4>and Saint Paul was busted in twenty twelve. They were

195
00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:41.799
<v Speaker 4>linked to the Cartel La Familia out of Mexico and

196
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:48.080
<v Speaker 4>they were smuggling in millions of dollars of methanthetamine from

197
00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:51.960
<v Speaker 4>Mexico to the Twin Cities area and then distributed out

198
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:57.240
<v Speaker 4>into Minnesota. The drugs went through a local member of

199
00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:01.919
<v Speaker 4>the cartel and then distributed to Yes, you got it,

200
00:16:02.600 --> 00:16:06.440
<v Speaker 4>the Menace of Destruction gang, the mong gang that I

201
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:10.840
<v Speaker 4>just mentioned. Oh and by the way, what is Lae Familia,

202
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:16.679
<v Speaker 4>also known for counterfeiting. Here's what you need to know

203
00:16:16.679 --> 00:16:21.919
<v Speaker 4>about methamphetamine. It's no longer made by cooks and makeshift

204
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:25.759
<v Speaker 4>labs in people's neighborhoods and houses like you saw in

205
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:29.519
<v Speaker 4>Breaking Bad. According to the DEA, it has become the

206
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:35.120
<v Speaker 4>preferred drug of Mexican cartels because of the pressure that

207
00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:38.720
<v Speaker 4>has been put on the opiates, They've switched over to

208
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:44.360
<v Speaker 4>methamphetamines and they are mass producing high quality quantities of

209
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 4>the drug and pushing it into markets where they had

210
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:55.200
<v Speaker 4>previously not pushed any product, including the Northeast. I read

211
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:58.559
<v Speaker 4>a white paper on the distribution of methamphetamines, and all

212
00:16:58.600 --> 00:17:01.120
<v Speaker 4>of these sources are going to be in the show notes.

213
00:17:01.399 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 4>I don't want you to think that I'm just sitting

214
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:06.279
<v Speaker 4>here rattling things off. I did the research. I want

215
00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:08.720
<v Speaker 4>you to go back and repeat the research and see

216
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:10.960
<v Speaker 4>if you see the threads that I'm pulling on.

217
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Now.

218
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:18.079
<v Speaker 4>Methamphetamine, according to the DEA, is a street drug in

219
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:23.359
<v Speaker 4>many parts of the country, but in the Northeast, methamphetamine

220
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:29.640
<v Speaker 4>functions as a quote unquote club drug. And here's what

221
00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:34.440
<v Speaker 4>their report says, quote Methamphetamine use has been found in

222
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:41.519
<v Speaker 4>a range of club subcultures, including electronic dance music, club rais,

223
00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:45.400
<v Speaker 4>and circuit parties. Now, I want you to go to

224
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:51.119
<v Speaker 4>Google and put in Elnueve Rodeo and look at the

225
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:56.319
<v Speaker 4>description of the nightclub. It fits the bill for what

226
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:04.240
<v Speaker 4>is described here by the DEA. Remember now, Chauvein shows

227
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:10.480
<v Speaker 4>up to arrest George Floyd with two other individuals from

228
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:16.599
<v Speaker 4>the Long community after being told that he was passing

229
00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:20.519
<v Speaker 4>off a counterfeit twenty dollars bill to purchase a pack

230
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:25.960
<v Speaker 4>of cigarettes. Eleven year veteran and Native Mong speaker Tao

231
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:30.680
<v Speaker 4>Thoe was one of the officers on the scene, and

232
00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:35.000
<v Speaker 4>he is the subject of six complaints, compared to Derek Chauvin,

233
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:40.720
<v Speaker 4>who had seventeen. Both officers for their tenure have an

234
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:47.599
<v Speaker 4>abnormally high number of complaints against them. These guys weren't

235
00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:54.319
<v Speaker 4>operating as officers. They were operating as members of this

236
00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:57.960
<v Speaker 4>Mong gang. I dug a little deeper and you will

237
00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:01.839
<v Speaker 4>see the link in the show notes where the deea

238
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:06.960
<v Speaker 4>list out the occupations that gang members have when they're

239
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:10.839
<v Speaker 4>not working for the gang, and the Minutes of Destruction's

240
00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:15.559
<v Speaker 4>primary occupations include military and law enforcement when they're not

241
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:21.079
<v Speaker 4>doing work for the gang. These guys are smart. They're

242
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:25.000
<v Speaker 4>just like corporations who put their people in government and

243
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:28.400
<v Speaker 4>then bring them back to the corporation, cross pollinating it

244
00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:31.839
<v Speaker 4>so they make sure they win all the contracts. These

245
00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.359
<v Speaker 4>guys are doing the same thing, So it would make

246
00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:40.920
<v Speaker 4>sense that Menace of Destruction would have officers who were

247
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:45.519
<v Speaker 4>gang members that give them the inside track to help

248
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:49.079
<v Speaker 4>them make sure they maintain their muscle in the areas

249
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:54.359
<v Speaker 4>where they want to distribute their product. Remember, they had

250
00:19:54.440 --> 00:19:58.880
<v Speaker 4>links to Mexican drug cartels like Familiar the methamphetamines that

251
00:19:58.920 --> 00:20:04.039
<v Speaker 4>flew from mex to go into Minneapolis, and both groups

252
00:20:04.079 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 4>were known for counterfeiting products and money. So when George

253
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:15.200
<v Speaker 4>Floyd was arrested on May twenty fifth, twenty twenty, the

254
00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:21.680
<v Speaker 4>video showed that Chauvin was holding his knee to his neck,

255
00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:28.559
<v Speaker 4>while Lane was holding Floyd's legs and Keong was holding

256
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:34.720
<v Speaker 4>his back while Paul, the officer with the six complaints,

257
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:39.759
<v Speaker 4>stood between the officers and onlookers. According to charging documents,

258
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:46.640
<v Speaker 4>individuals have already question why you arrest him, put him

259
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:49.240
<v Speaker 4>in the car, and then take him out of the car.

260
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:52.440
<v Speaker 4>Pin him to the ground, put your knee on his neck,

261
00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:55.440
<v Speaker 4>hold his legs, and hold his back down while the

262
00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:59.839
<v Speaker 4>fourth officer keeps the crowd at a safe distance. This

263
00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:05.559
<v Speaker 4>wasn't an arrest. I think this was a hit because

264
00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:12.119
<v Speaker 4>George Floyd was going to expose not just a meth

265
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:17.480
<v Speaker 4>amphetamine ring which had just been busted in twenty twelve,

266
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:23.440
<v Speaker 4>but he was going to expose evidence of a counterfeiting

267
00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:28.559
<v Speaker 4>ring that is probably linked to menace of destruction in

268
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:32.400
<v Speaker 4>La Familia. There's something else really stinky about what's going

269
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:37.440
<v Speaker 4>on in Minnesota. There's a link in the show notes

270
00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:42.599
<v Speaker 4>to an article where law enforcement is complaining about the

271
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:48.519
<v Speaker 4>state's district attorney and his unwillingness to prosecute gangs. In fact,

272
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:53.759
<v Speaker 4>many of the judges in Minnesota are complaining about the

273
00:21:53.839 --> 00:21:59.960
<v Speaker 4>DA's unwillingness to prosecute gangs, including one judge who law

274
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:06.160
<v Speaker 4>lost his daughter to opiate addiction. I'm going to put

275
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:08.400
<v Speaker 4>a link in the show notes to a book called

276
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:13.119
<v Speaker 4>Killing Uncle Sam. For those of you who are serious

277
00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:17.319
<v Speaker 4>about this topic. You should read this book because it

278
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:26.480
<v Speaker 4>explains how the CIA is using these sorts of clubs, gangs,

279
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:31.440
<v Speaker 4>and drug routes to finance its private wars all around

280
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:36.319
<v Speaker 4>the world, and that when one area dries up, be

281
00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:42.480
<v Speaker 4>it the opiates, they find another avenue and another drug

282
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:46.519
<v Speaker 4>and another route to pipe their product and to get

283
00:22:46.519 --> 00:22:49.720
<v Speaker 4>the money they need to finance these wars. Now, all

284
00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:54.640
<v Speaker 4>of this started with Dulles way back with OSS and

285
00:22:54.720 --> 00:22:59.759
<v Speaker 4>their attempts to finance private wars after World War II.

286
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:03.200
<v Speaker 4>And guess where the drugs came from that Dulles used

287
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:08.960
<v Speaker 4>to finance his private wars back then. Yeah, the Long

288
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:18.319
<v Speaker 4>community Southeast Asia. And so those drugs then were piped

289
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:23.000
<v Speaker 4>into black communities via jazz clubs, believe it or not,

290
00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:30.200
<v Speaker 4>and started an addiction and drug culture that has ruined

291
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:35.000
<v Speaker 4>the black community. That's not me saying it, that's what's

292
00:23:35.119 --> 00:23:40.440
<v Speaker 4>laid out by Paul Williams in Killing Uncle Sam. In

293
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:46.319
<v Speaker 4>Paul Williams's book, he outlines how routes were carved through

294
00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:50.039
<v Speaker 4>the South and that drugs were run all the way

295
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:55.279
<v Speaker 4>up through Mina, Arkansas, where it was piped into the Northeast,

296
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:00.880
<v Speaker 4>and that many times the shipments of drugs. We're protected

297
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:08.680
<v Speaker 4>by local law enforcement. You can't make these things up.

298
00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:12.640
<v Speaker 4>Do I expect the media to do this kind of

299
00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:14.279
<v Speaker 4>research on this case?

300
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:14.680
<v Speaker 2>No?

301
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:20.039
<v Speaker 4>Do I expect the investigators to do this kind of research. No,

302
00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:25.400
<v Speaker 4>because just like the JFK killing, they have their man,

303
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:31.119
<v Speaker 4>they have something that appeases the public, and they're going

304
00:24:31.160 --> 00:24:34.079
<v Speaker 4>to end that case right where we see it, with

305
00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:38.920
<v Speaker 4>a group of officers and one dead black man. But

306
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:41.640
<v Speaker 4>as you can see, there are many more layers to

307
00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:45.359
<v Speaker 4>this case, layers that I don't think anyone wants to

308
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:53.599
<v Speaker 4>peel back and discover America seemly underbelly. I hope many

309
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:56.839
<v Speaker 4>of you take the time to go through the show notes.

310
00:24:57.440 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 4>I hope many of you take the time to step

311
00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:02.920
<v Speaker 4>back and ask yourself the obvious questions. These two men

312
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:06.920
<v Speaker 4>knew each other, They worked with each other for over

313
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:12.119
<v Speaker 4>a year, both in security. There's no way a bouncer

314
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.079
<v Speaker 4>would not have had to throw someone out the club

315
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:20.200
<v Speaker 4>and come across the security working right outside the front door.

316
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:29.160
<v Speaker 4>What caused this action, in my opinion, was some of

317
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:32.039
<v Speaker 4>the activity that went on in that club found its

318
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:37.680
<v Speaker 4>way into Floyd's hand. A counterfeit twenty dollars bill, and

319
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.359
<v Speaker 4>the only reason an officer would escalate that to the

320
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:46.880
<v Speaker 4>point of wanting to execute a man despite the pleas

321
00:25:46.920 --> 00:25:52.960
<v Speaker 4>that he was making in front of the public who

322
00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:57.839
<v Speaker 4>all had cell phones and could record the incident, is

323
00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:02.039
<v Speaker 4>that he intended for this man to die and intended

324
00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:05.079
<v Speaker 4>for the link to the evidence that this man may

325
00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:09.240
<v Speaker 4>have represented to die with him. That's what I'm alleging.

326
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:13.440
<v Speaker 4>But I want you to do the homework. I want

327
00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:16.559
<v Speaker 4>you to go through the articles and see the threads

328
00:26:16.599 --> 00:26:23.000
<v Speaker 4>that are woven through this incident. A club located near

329
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:27.799
<v Speaker 4>the Third Precinct where Chavon worked with a sketchy history

330
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:33.519
<v Speaker 4>with lots of gunfire with officer related shootings, none of

331
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:38.440
<v Speaker 4>which could be linked back to the club where Chavon worked.

332
00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:44.839
<v Speaker 4>Outside the club, he was protecting that turf because he

333
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:48.640
<v Speaker 4>may have been involved in the activity that was going

334
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:53.359
<v Speaker 4>on inside that club and linked to the mong gangs

335
00:26:53.759 --> 00:27:00.160
<v Speaker 4>that are distributing narcotics and counterfeit bills in the in

336
00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:07.880
<v Speaker 4>Cities area. Guys, I'm hearing these drums. I appreciate you listening.

337
00:27:09.000 --> 00:27:12.920
<v Speaker 4>I want you to do the research because there's more

338
00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:16.880
<v Speaker 4>beneath the surface than what we're being told.

339
00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Guys, if you like this podcast, give it a like.

341
00:27:23.640 --> 00:27:27.319

356
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:27.039
<v Speaker 2>everything you read in the popular press, there's more to

357
00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:30.839
<v Speaker 2>the story. When I was growing up, there were real

358
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:36.640
<v Speaker 2>news people that worked for television newspaper magazines that did

359
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:42.480
<v Speaker 2>the investigative work. They don't have that. Now, we got

360
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:49.799
<v Speaker 2>corporate infotainment. You don't believe me, Open up the Apple

00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:52.039
<v Speaker 2>because the priests will then find it and then say, hey, Mark,

380
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:30.480
<v Speaker 2>and go back to listening to mundane podcasts that won't

381

382
00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:40.640
<v Speaker 2>the universe, and consciousness. Take the red pill.
