WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.360 A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on 3 00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:07.200 demand on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:10.080 Guys, after watching that debate last night, I think the 5 00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:11.759 only answer is we need. 6 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:14.919 A Waltz and advanced campaign. 7 00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:16.280 Screw Trump and. 8 00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:18.399 Common I mean, they did seem to have a lot 9 00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:20.600 in common at least that's what they kept saying last night. 10 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.719 Who lost last night was Donald Trump? Both of the 11 00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:29.760 candidates last night that they made Donald Trump sound like 12 00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:33.679 a grumpy old man who couldn't put thoughts together. 13 00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:37.159 This was a retro version of a presidential debate or 14 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:41.079 vice presidential debate. This goes back to, you know, the 15 00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:43.320 old days when they would shake hands and they would 16 00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.280 be nice to each other and be dignified when they 17 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.520 were giving when they were giving their arguments one way 18 00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:52.000 or the other, and they didn't boil down to personal attacks. 19 00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:54.600 So, you know, that was a nice thing to see. 20 00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.759 It was nice that that existed or still does exist. 21 00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.200 Over in New York, the NYPD has mobilized cops to 22 00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:06.040 houses of worship around that city. Iran, of course, fired 23 00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.239 almost two hundred rockets against Israel yesterday, and this enhanced 24 00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.159 deployment of police personnel in New York is set to 25 00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.200 extend through the High Holy Days, begins with rash Hashana 26 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:19.719 at sunset and then includes through October seventh, of course, 27 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:23.359 the year anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel which 28 00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:24.560 sparked this. 29 00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:28.040 Whole conflict. In the beginning. 30 00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:32.319 Seven people were murdered yesterday dozens wounded in a terrorist 31 00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:35.359 attack at a light rail station in Jaffa, right about 32 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:39.319 the time that the rockets started flying in from Iran. 33 00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.400 The two terrorists were shot dead by members of the 34 00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:47.200 municipal security patrol unit and citizens who were using their 35 00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:53.439 personal firearms there in Israel, President Biden is expected to 36 00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.359 travel to both North and South Carolina today to survey 37 00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:02.120 damage from the storm from Hurricane Helene. And it's not 38 00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:04.040 getting any better anytime soon. 39 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:06.319 This is like a Katrina on steroids. 40 00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.159 We have people on oxygen that are completely out now 41 00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:12.000 Burly provided a single twelve hour tank. 42 00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:15.879 At most. We have babies up there with a formula. 43 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:21.280 There's a reporter, Fox Weather reporter Jane Minar, who was 44 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.719 out there in western North Carolina and described what she 45 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:24.599 saw this morning. 46 00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:26.199 The debris is incredible. 47 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.000 I did see just a couple of minutes ago, people 48 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.000 on horseback, including a doctor that we're getting up into 49 00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:36.800 the hallers behind me to do welfare checks. As of 50 00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.479 where I stand right now, what I know in Wataga 51 00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.879 County here in North Carolina, two have been confirmed dead 52 00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:47.080 to landslides, but they are getting their power back and 53 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.719 water boiled water advisories. 54 00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:49.840 Have been lifted. 55 00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:53.479 We are expecting to see some comments. Obviously, President Biden 56 00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:56.719 made some comments to Joint Bass Andrews before he left 57 00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.319 on Air Force one to head south to the Carolinus 58 00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:03.360 to see what's going on. So if he gets there 59 00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:07.240 and makes some comments, we will we'll at least listen 60 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:08.680 in and see what he's going to say. We know 61 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.560 the Vice President Harris also has taken some time away 62 00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.400 from the campaign trail to go down there. The death 63 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:18.520 toll is now up over one sixty and there is 64 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:21.800 a concern that we might not know the full death 65 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:23.759 toll for a few years. 66 00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:25.599 And there's a couple different reasons. 67 00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.240 The FEMA administrator Dan Criswell said, we don't know that 68 00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.400 anybody could be fully prepared for the amount of flooding 69 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:34.840 and landslides that they are experiencing right now. Because we're 70 00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:38.639 going to continue to see ongoing power outages, the cell 71 00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.599 phone outages, and as the reporter there was mentioning, there's 72 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:47.960 literally people on horseback trying to find survivors, family members. 73 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:50.159 We did a couple stories yesterday about how people were 74 00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.680 hiking several miles in order to get to their loved ones. 75 00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:56.639 According to the AP, more than one hundred and sixty 76 00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:00.960 storm related fatalities in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, 77 00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:06.520 and Virginia, but still hundreds of people unaccounted for, and 78 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.840 the number of unaccounted for is expected to go up over. 79 00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:11.759 The next couple of days. 80 00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:15.840 There were a couple of a study that was published 81 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:21.000 in the journal Nature says we could see the numbers 82 00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:24.959 rise for years. They looked at the effects of more 83 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.160 than five hundred tropical storms that have hit the United 84 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.079 States between nineteen thirty and twenty fifteen, and they looked 85 00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.680 at the difference in the mortality rates before and after 86 00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.879 the storms and tracked what they call excess deaths. You 87 00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:41.560 remember that term, probably from the COVID times. They wanted 88 00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:44.240 to see how many people would die above the usual 89 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:49.120 monthly average and how long that increased rate of death continued, 90 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:53.839 and they found that on average, each tropical storm event 91 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:59.480 caused seven to eleven thousand excess deaths because of the 92 00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:05.160 health effect that persist after initial landfall. I mean, they said, 93 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:07.759 we thought there would be six months of delayed effects, 94 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:09.959 maybe a year, but they said it kept going and 95 00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:14.839 it started to decline about fifteen years after the storm. 96 00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:19.920 The impact of a storm like this cannot be understated. Obviously, 97 00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:24.399 the immediate impacts, I mean, since that since that storm 98 00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:27.879 made landfall last week, we're talking about a week later, 99 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.560 almost a week later, and people don't have power, they 100 00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:34.560 don't have natural gas, they don't have gasoline, they don't 101 00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:37.439 have electricity, they don't have water, they don't have the 102 00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.279 ability to get around, they don't have communication. And we're 103 00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:44.000 talking about a week later. Now, that's not necessarily going 104 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.600 to cause people to die, because the direct deaths that 105 00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:50.600 are attributed to a storm like this, you get hit 106 00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.759 by debris, you're in a car accident, you drown, something 107 00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:58.920 like that. But then you've got indirect deaths, and they 108 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.759 don't often count these indirect deaths when they give an 109 00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:08.319 official death toll. Things like ongoing health problems, economic problems, 110 00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:11.639 social changes, even that are caused by a disaster. So, 111 00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.480 for example, this is an example they use for an 112 00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:19.040 indirect death. If someone drains their bank account in order 113 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:22.040 to rebuild their house or their property or whatever business, 114 00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:24.240 they may not be able to pay for the health 115 00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:27.439 care that they need in the future, or if they 116 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:30.959 have to relocate, they might not have the same social 117 00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:34.480 network that they rely on for future health emergencies. And 118 00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:39.079 we've talked many, many times, not specifically about storms like this, 119 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:44.040 but how important a social network is to maintaining your 120 00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:47.879 good health. Then you have the ongoing environmental factors. You 121 00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:53.920 have the continuing danger of environmental factors that are impacted 122 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.319 by storms. The stress of surviving a storm itself may 123 00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:01.560 take a toll, especially if you older, especially if you've 124 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:05.120 already got some sort of compromised health that you're dealing with. 125 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.920 They said tropical storms contribute to more deaths than those 126 00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:13.120 from motor vehicle accidents or infectious diseases in the eighty 127 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.079 five years that they tracked again, going back to the 128 00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:19.879 going back to nineteen thirty, and they said that builds 129 00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:22.439 on this growing body of work that says that hurricanes 130 00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:26.759 could be significant drivers of public health crises, not just 131 00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:30.959 the days and week or two weeks after a hurricane, 132 00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.279 but as long as several years, so we may see 133 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:37.360 the toll on this continued a rise. Well, a judge 134 00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.680 says he is going to take under submission this proposal 135 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:43.120 to release a sexually violent serial predator known as the 136 00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:48.480 Pillowcase rapist in the Antelope Valley. Our own Michael Monks 137 00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:50.480 is covering the story for us. Michael, what's going on? 138 00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:54.319 Hey, good morning Gary. Yes, this was a very short hearing, 139 00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:55.920 in spite of all the build up to it and 140 00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:58.720 all the collection of those letters from the community, including 141 00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:03.040 elected officials like County Supervisor Catherine Barger, La County District 142 00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:06.720 Attorney George Gascone. It lasted about twenty minutes, and what 143 00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:10.680 we heard were a lot more arguments against releasing Christopher 144 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.839 Hubbart into the community of Juniper Hills where people have 145 00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:17.480 dealt with the situation before and don't want to deal 146 00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:19.600 with it again. So we even heard the La County 147 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.279 Sheriff's Department say, look, the last time Christopher Hubbart was 148 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.680 released before he was put back in prison because he 149 00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:28.600 was failing some of the you know, the ramifications they 150 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:29.000 put on. 151 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:30.560 His on his release. 152 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.039 They said we had to go to his house three 153 00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:36.799 times a day because of protests and other disruptions. And 154 00:08:36.879 --> 00:08:39.600 Juniper Hills is even farther away from the Palmdale area 155 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:43.320 where this happened originally, like it would take hours to 156 00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.639 respond to these things over and over. Please don't put 157 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:48.720 him in Juniper Hills. We don't know what's going to happen. 158 00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.879 The judge took everything under advisement and now we await 159 00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:55.720 that ruling. Is there a is there a mechanism for 160 00:08:55.799 --> 00:09:00.480 him to stay in a state facility? I know he 161 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:01.519 was at Coalinga for. 162 00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:04.639 A while, the state hospital there, But is there a 163 00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:07.639 mechanism for guys like this where there is no viable 164 00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:10.480 alternative for him to live amongst the public, to just 165 00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:13.799 stay on state property. Well, we have to keep in 166 00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:17.279 mind that the case in La County is specifically about 167 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.600 the location of his release. It's not about whether the 168 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:22.840 Pillow case rapist is going to get out of prison. 169 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:24.679 That was a decision that came out of a different 170 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.840 county court in Santa Clara, and in that ruling, the 171 00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:31.240 decision was specifically to place them in La County. So 172 00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:34.200 that's what we're dealing with here, so regardless of what 173 00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:37.679 other mechanisms excuse me, mechanisms may be at play. The 174 00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:41.559 judge in the Hollywood courthouse yesterday made it clear we're 175 00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:45.720 only talking about the location. So if there is somebody 176 00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:49.279 higher up or in another department of the state prison system, 177 00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:52.159 we might hear from them at another time, especially if 178 00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:54.440 Juniper Hills doesn't work out and they start talking about 179 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.600 another alternative. I can't imagine any community rising up and saying, oh, yeah, 180 00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.679 that's okay with us. Is there any way to appeal 181 00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:02.919 a rule like this from the judge? In terms of 182 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:06.559 the local politicians you mentioned, the state county supervisor, the 183 00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:09.799 district attorney, the sheriff's department, they've all had problems with this. 184 00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.120 What we've heard so far from folks like that district 185 00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:17.240 attorney sheriff's office was speak out against it. That seems 186 00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:19.720 to be the appeal, not in the legal sense, but 187 00:10:19.799 --> 00:10:23.960 in the public relations sense. Make an appeal to persuade 188 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.360 the judge not to place this person in Juniper Hills. 189 00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:29.919 So this is a very rural area, of course, in 190 00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:34.720 La County. The judge said, listen, I understand I'm taking 191 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:37.480 all of your notes hundreds of them into consideration here 192 00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:40.159 as we make this decision. But he also noted it's 193 00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:44.679 difficult to place what is considered a sexually violent predator 194 00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:48.200 and SVP because of all the rules around where of 195 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.639 those folks can be located. So it does limit where 196 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:52.679 you can be in a place like La County. You've 197 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:55.200 got to find some place out in the sticks. So 198 00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:57.679 we'll just be waiting to see how this plays out. 199 00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:01.759 In terms of the numbers, they said thousands of rental 200 00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:05.000 properties and only one of them would have fit the 201 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.759 criteria that would have been found exactly. 202 00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:12.480 That's the challenge that the judge faces because this guy's 203 00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:14.759 a bad guy, Christopher Hubbard. I mean, there's no question 204 00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:18.320 about that. He's been sentenced three times over three different 205 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:22.159 decades for rapes and other sexual offenses, and was released 206 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:25.000 to the Palmdale area several years ago, and you know, 207 00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.960 had to undergo some tests and some light detector tests. 208 00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.480 Did not reoffend in the violent sense, but did fail 209 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:33.879 some of those examinations, and so they put him back 210 00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:38.279 into a controlled population. But you know, now he's seventy four, 211 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:42.279 and folks still seem to be concerned whether he could 212 00:11:42.279 --> 00:11:43.480 fit inside their community. 213 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:47.200 Yeah, all right, Michael, thank you appreciate it. Mike Pleacher, Gary, 214 00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:52.039 you mentioned the Christopher Hubbard was convicted in nineteen seventy three. 215 00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:54.639 Was he would have been twenty three at the time 216 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:57.200 nineteen seventy three. He was convicted in nineteen eighty two. 217 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:00.200 He was convicted in nineteen ninety in La count and 218 00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:02.759 up in northern California for a series of at least 219 00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:07.679 forty four zero forty rapes and other sex crimes. He 220 00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:10.399 got the nickname the pillowcase rapist because he was using 221 00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:16.600 apparently pillowcases to muffle screams of his victims. Detained as 222 00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:19.840 a sexually violent predator and committed to this Department of 223 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:23.480 State Hospitals twenty plus years ago and then released from 224 00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:26.320 Coalinga in July of twenty fourteen, assigned to live in 225 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.639 an area around Palmdale, despite the fact that people there 226 00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.879 hated the idea, and then of course violated his conditions. 227 00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:35.080 And it is going to be sent. 228 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:38.679 Back President Biden, Vice President Harris visiting the southeast today 229 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.799 to get some more look at the damage from Hurricane Helene. 230 00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:46.960 The President will fly over we believe North and South 231 00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:50.039 Carolina today and then Vice president Harris is going to 232 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:51.120 be in Georgia. 233 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:53.399 A couple things coming up by the way this weekend. 234 00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:56.039 I am going to be hosting the Walk to End 235 00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:00.000 Alzheimer's in Irvine Saturday morning. That event starts at eight 236 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.720 in the morning. You can go to the local Orange 237 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:09.399 County Alzheimer's Association to either sign up or register or 238 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:11.440 donate however you want to do it. And also Moll 239 00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:14.320 Kelly is going to be I'm seeing an event Saturday night, 240 00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:16.879 the Blue Door Bash gallop for the Boys and Girls 241 00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:20.720 Club of Carson at SOFI Stadium Saturday night, six pm. 242 00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:22.519 There's a link to donate. 243 00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:24.120 You can fit on some of the auction items that 244 00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:28.440 are there when you go to BGC Carson Boys Girls 245 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:32.159 Club Boy BGC Carson dot Org. 246 00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:34.639 On the south. 247 00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:40.639 Side of the one thirty four right in Pasadena, there 248 00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:47.159 appears to be a stack of liquid containing vials and 249 00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:55.440 that liquid appears to be human urine. They have been 250 00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:01.480 accumulating in that little area because of what some people 251 00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.639 in Pasadena refer to as the Ppe bandit. Although they 252 00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:06.759 use a word I'm not even I don't think I'm 253 00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:07.879 supposed to use on the air. 254 00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.279 So I shan't, but I can also not say shan't. 255 00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:14.919 A mystery man has a penchant for placing full bottles 256 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:20.039 of urine on a specific box, a specific electrical box 257 00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.279 on Colorado Boulevard. And they said, for years this thing 258 00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:31.840 has been going on this random electrical box. Now there 259 00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.919 are a couple of movie makers, self appointed documentarians, they say, 260 00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:41.759 who have devoted themselves to figuring out who is doing it. 261 00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:47.200 There's a guy, Derek Milton, dressed as a construction worker 262 00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:50.879 and he's a filmmaker, even though he looks like a 263 00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:53.600 construction guy, came to the side of the one thirty 264 00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:58.480 four to figure out exactly what's going on. He said, 265 00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:00.639 they have to dress like a construction team because they 266 00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:05.000 have to be incognito to maybe catch this guy in 267 00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:07.360 the act. They don't want to be mistaken by passing 268 00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:12.000 drivers and pedestrians for the person who's actually the PP bandit. 269 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:15.799 That would be a real situation, they said. 270 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:18.720 The disguises are one of the recurring bits in this 271 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:23.799 six part documentary that they've put on TikTok. The short 272 00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:27.600 films have made minor stars of these two filmmakers, and 273 00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:31.720 the first installment has drawn more than six million views, 274 00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:35.279 which is crazy because they say they've also been recognized 275 00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:40.039 in airports and restaurants, even though somebody doesn't know who 276 00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:45.360 they are necessarily, but they say, I know you from somewhere. 277 00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:51.759 So they said their goal is not to publicly identify 278 00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:55.440 who the PP bandit is, but to figure out and 279 00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:59.639 understand perhaps the motives of the PP bandit. 280 00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:01.840 However you would figure that out. 281 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:04.480 They do believe it's a man, I mean, obviously, just 282 00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:09.600 in terms of the plumbing and the let's see the 283 00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:14.279 way it is you get urine into a bottle like that. 284 00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:16.519 It's easier for a brother to do it than a 285 00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:18.360 sister to do it, shall we say? 286 00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:21.200 And as Gavin Newsom told us one time. 287 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:23.759 Not all peepee times are poop poo times, but all 288 00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:25.240 poop poo times are peepee times. 289 00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:27.919 Right, So there's that now. 290 00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:30.440 They said that there was a thing that maybe this 291 00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.799 was a drop off point, maybe the Peepie bandit was 292 00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:38.919 actually in business where he was selling his or someone's 293 00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:43.159 clean urine, and that that was the drop off spot. 294 00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:44.559 Like some spy novel. 295 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:50.279 I'll leave it on the Pasadena Water and Power Electrical 296 00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:54.639 box on Colorado Boulevard. It'll be in a UHU bottle 297 00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:59.039 or something like that. Others thought that this thing contained 298 00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:01.559 liquefied dru uggs as a way to do it. Some 299 00:17:01.639 --> 00:17:06.839 people believe that the urine isn't actually urine, so the 300 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:10.759 two filmmakers dispelled these doubts by performing a urinalysis and 301 00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:13.440 a drug test on one of the bottles, and they 302 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:19.680 did find yes, in fact, human urine, not one trace 303 00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:24.920 of drugs, so it was clean. When asked why they 304 00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:28.160 were willing to do a urinalysis on some bottle of urine, 305 00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:33.119 one of the guys said, I suffer from insomnia. The 306 00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:37.960 other guy says in the video that sorry, not insomnia 307 00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:43.079 and nasmia and nasmia, which means he has no sense 308 00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:47.599 of smell. So the guy without the sense of smell 309 00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:50.359 can crack that thing open and not be bothered by 310 00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:54.119 the fact that there's a urine smell, very strong urine smell. 311 00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:58.400 So they said that they wanted to figure out all 312 00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:01.440 of what was going on. When a reporter for the 313 00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:06.480 La Times joined them, there were thirteen bottles full of 314 00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:11.839 liquid in varying hues from the worryingly dark amber to 315 00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:14.599 a hydrated light gold, and they said it was probably 316 00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:19.720 a week's worth of urine. The reasons they were there 317 00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:23.519 were twofold and reading from the part from the piece 318 00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:25.519 in the l Times, it says they were installing new 319 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:29.599 cameras inside a subway cup, a dryer's ice cream tub, 320 00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:32.920 and a fake shrub. They would place the cameras in 321 00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:35.359 the vicinity of the electrical box in hopes of capturing 322 00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:39.759 video of the man behind the bottles. The second reason 323 00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:43.720 they were there was to see the handiwork because water 324 00:18:43.799 --> 00:18:46.559 and power there in department. The Department of Water and 325 00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:49.960 Power for Pasadena had installed a pyramid of metal on 326 00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.680 top of the electrical box in order to stop the 327 00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:55.920 band its rain of liquid terror. 328 00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:58.880 The pyramid, a few days later was gone. 329 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:03.000 Maybe it was pried off using a crowbar, and the 330 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:07.640 bottles of urine were once again there. Sounds like somebody 331 00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:12.920 either has a very great sense of humor or there's 332 00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:16.519 a weird mental issue going on where this is a 333 00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:20.519 way that this guy gets some joy out of doing 334 00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:25.039 this and placing his urine on an electrical box for 335 00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:28.039 the world to see. It doesn't make a whole lot 336 00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:31.160 of sense, but it does make some sense. Not that 337 00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:31.759 I would do that. 338 00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:32.440 I wouldn't do that. 339 00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:35.960 I would take a gatorade bottle. Anyway you got to 340 00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:39.279 get a well, it doesn't matter. I don't want to 341 00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:42.200 get into the specifics, just say gatorade bottle. Justin Warsham's 342 00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:45.000 going to join us in studio. We'll be talking about parenting. 343 00:19:45.319 --> 00:19:47.119 We have what you watching Wednesday coming up a little 344 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:49.480 bit later in the show. One of the big stories 345 00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:53.519 over the weekend will be that former President Trump is 346 00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:56.759 headed right back to Butler, Pennsylvania, and this is where 347 00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.599 he was shot at back in July. The assassination attempt 348 00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.160 was felt pretty deeply there in Butler County, especially considering 349 00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:06.839 there were federal agencies that were pointing at local cops 350 00:20:06.839 --> 00:20:09.880 and local cops who are pointing at federal agencies. He 351 00:20:10.599 --> 00:20:12.640 being Trump, he does have a lot of support there. 352 00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:15.720 Many are expecting a very large crowd at that farm 353 00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:18.480 show property west of town, which is where he was 354 00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:24.039 when that assassin assassination attempt went down. Some residents have 355 00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:28.000 said that they're still concerned about that. Butler County Commissioner 356 00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:30.640 Kim Geyers she's not going to let any mixed emotions 357 00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:34.240 keep her away from some Saturday's rally. Some manufacturers and 358 00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:37.920 retailers are hoping that President Biden invokes the Taft Hartley 359 00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.960 Act of nineteen forty seven as a way to suspend 360 00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:43.920 a strike by the thousands of dock workers that has 361 00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:48.400 shut down thirty six ports from Maine to Texas. This 362 00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:51.440 is a law that authorizes the president to get a 363 00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:54.880 court order for an eighty day cooling off period for 364 00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:58.000 companies and unions to try to resolve their differences. Biden 365 00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:00.920 has said up to this point he is not going 366 00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.759 to intervene in this strike, although that could change, especially 367 00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:08.880 considering the possibility of it impacting the economy to the 368 00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:13.720 tune of billions of dollars and reversing what we have seen, 369 00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:16.519 which has been a decline in inflation. We could see 370 00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:19.240 that jump back up if this thing lasts for any 371 00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:23.240 significant amount of time. The LAPD has been asking for 372 00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:25.240 the public's help in the last couple of weeks trying 373 00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:30.200 to find some people involved in a series of flash 374 00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:34.640 mob style robberies at seven elevens here in la and 375 00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:38.799 they have put out different images, some video, some still 376 00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:44.400 images of incidents that happened between July twelfth and September twentieth. 377 00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:50.160 They said fourteen separate robberies across ten different seven elevens 378 00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:54.240 in the Rampart Division Hollywood Wilshire West, LA divisions, and 379 00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:58.200 in each instance, the group of a couple dozen a 380 00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:02.119 few dozen teenagers it looks like, roll up to the 381 00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:05.680 stores on bicycles in the evening hours, say six, seven, 382 00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:08.359 eight o'clock something like that, and then steal a bunch 383 00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:11.119 of stuff and throw a bunch of the displays onto 384 00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:12.680 the ground and they leave without paying. 385 00:22:13.079 --> 00:22:14.880 Duh. 386 00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:19.839 They usually consist, they say, between twenty and forty youthful males. 387 00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:25.240 That's a LAPD term youthful males, and they appear to 388 00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:29.920 be teenagers. Witnesses have told authorities that they haven't been hurt, 389 00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:32.559 but they do fear for their safety some of the 390 00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:37.799 physical some of the suspects have physically pushed people, but 391 00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:40.799 that has not resulted in any injuries, at least no 392 00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:45.640 reported injuries to this point. In a news release that 393 00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.039 came out just last week, the LAPD said for the 394 00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:50.400 first time, the string of robberies was connected to one 395 00:22:50.680 --> 00:22:56.759 individual group and that thirteen of those fourteen robberies occurred 396 00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:02.160 on Friday nights. So you can imagine that this maybe 397 00:23:02.240 --> 00:23:07.319 narrows down the type of suspect or the persons that 398 00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:10.519 would be involved in this.
