958 00:27:51.140 --> 00:27:53.709 the house back in the day that he then moved into these, 959 00:27:53.829 --> 00:27:54.589 it's just strange, 960 00:27:54.670 --> 00:27:56.170 so many storage units.

00:38:57.300 You know, 1357 00:38:57.379 --> 00:38:57.540 the, 1358 00:38:57.620 --> 00:39:01.280 the headlines get grittier and more concerning. 1359 00:39:02.219 --> 00:39:04.060 It's harder for you to remember, 1360 00:39:04.260 --> 00:39:05.139 pull it back, 1361 00:39:05.540 --> 00:39:06.899 innocent until proven guilty. 1362 00:39:06.939 --> 00:39:07.129 I, 1363 00:39:07.229 --> 00:39:07.419 you know, 1364 00:39:07.570 --> 00:39:07.739 he, 1365 00:39:07.899 --> 00:39:09.159 he stresses that he, 1366 00:39:09.459 --> 00:39:11.179 that he hasn't done anything wrong. 1367 00:39:11.699 --> 00:39:11.979 Right, 1368 00:39:12.179 --> 00:39:12.419 right, 1369 00:39:12.580 --> 00:39:12.620 yeah, 1370 00:39:12.699 --> 00:39:12.820 I know, 1371 00:39:12.889 --> 00:39:13.169 you're right. 1372 00:39:13.219 --> 00:39:13.399 I mean, 1373 00:39:13.409 --> 00:39:14.879 that's the way our system is set up, 1374 00:39:14.889 --> 00:39:15.820 and we'll see, 1375 00:39:16.340 --> 00:39:17.360 we'll see how it plays out. 1376 00:39:17.449 --> 00:39:17.629 Um, 1377 00:39:17.780 --> 00:39:18.090 Kinsey, 1378 00:39:18.129 --> 00:39:19.760 thank you for taking the time to talk to me again. 1379 00:39:19.939 --> 00:39:20.479 Thank you. 1380 00:39:20.969 --> 00:39:23.340 Appreciate Kinsey for taking the time to talk with me, 1381 00:39:23.469 --> 00:39:23.780 uh, 1382 00:39:23.899 --> 00:39:26.560 and I'll keep an eye on how all of this develops if. 1383 00:39:27.590 --> 00:39:27.909 Not if, 1384 00:39:27.979 --> 00:39:30.340 but when Thomas Markel Senior is back in court in Florida, 1385 00:39:30.350 --> 00:39:31.389 I'm definitely gonna try to go. 1386 00:39:31.429 --> 00:39:33.050 I'm thinking it'll probably be in Tampa. 1387 00:39:34.060 --> 00:39:35.949 When that will be though is still unclear 1388 00:39:35.949 --> 00:39:38.830 just because there's now this mental health evaluation. 1389 00:39:39.729 --> 00:39:42.330 And physical health evaluation it seems that have 1390 00:39:42.330 --> 00:39:43.810 to happen and that could take some time. 1391 00:39:43.929 --> 00:39:45.120 So I'll keep an eye on it. 1392 00:39:45.370 --> 00:39:48.120 I'll let you guys know when that happens and I'll try to get to the hearing in, 1393 00:39:48.129 --> 00:39:48.189 in, 1394 00:39:48.199 --> 00:39:48.560 in, 1395 00:39:48.679 --> 00:39:49.310 in Tampa. 1396 00:39:49.840 --> 00:39:50.360 Um, 1397 00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:51.879 because these federal court hearings, 1398 00:39:51.919 --> 00:39:52.800 there's no cameras allowed, 1399 00:39:52.870 --> 00:39:53.550 there's no recordings, 1400 00:39:53.620 --> 00:39:55.600 so the only way you really know what's going on is if you 1401 00:39:55.600 --> 00:39:58.639 actually go to the hearing yourself and write everything down in your notebook. 1402 00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:01.399 So that's what I'll try to do as soon as I find out when it is. 1403 00:40:01.520 --> 00:40:02.239 Might be this week, 1404 00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:02.679 but 1405 00:40:02.919 --> 00:40:03.560 might be next week, 1406 00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:04.040 we'll see. 1407 00:40:04.159 --> 00:40:05.699 So appreciate everybody for watching, 1408 00:40:06.120 --> 00:40:07.699 really appreciate everybody who has, 1409 00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:08.179 um, 1410 00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:08.479 you know, 1411 00:40:08.560 --> 00:40:10.620 been watching my videos and subscribed to my channel, 1412 00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:11.000 uh, 1413 00:40:11.070 --> 00:40:12.320 and I will talk to you guys later.
