Yes, sir, we look at him.
59
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:17.080
Yeah, which might explain why you have a story about
60
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:21.759
being banned from schools Yes, sir, uh, it's an unwritten
61
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.280
rule at the at the Sheriff's office. Prior to the

00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:29.280
new sheriff getting here, I got as a patrol defie.
63
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.159

64
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:35.319
an sro And I got there and I was just

00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.319

00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:46.840
where they come and pick up kids, and I'm just
70
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:50.400
sitting there jamming out reports and all I see is
71
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:54.080
four teachers sprinting through the school out to me and
72
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:56.840
knocking on my window. Hey, we have a kid here.
73
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:01.639

six
Load full transcript
report Steve like I needed to. I need to
76
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:12.120
cram out some paper. So uh, we sprint through the
77
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:17.199
school and I get there and uh, he has like
78
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.920
five or six teachers in there, and I basically get
79
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:21.199
him up out of the out of the chair, and
80
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:22.879
I was like, look, all these teachers are paid to
81
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:25.439
be nice to you. I'm gonna mess you up if
82
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:28.759
you kind of heard everybody in here, and uh, this
83
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:31.399
is this is down playing. What I actually said to
84
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:35.160
him basically made him cry, but actually it was actually
85
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.279
a very good conversation. But where it turned into I
86
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:41.839
was no longer allowed at the school was after his
87
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:45.519
mother came to pick him up, called the Sheriff's office
88
00:04:45.639 --> 00:04:48.160
and started to complain on me for for talking bed
89
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:48.959
to her.
90
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:52.000
Son, and uh, hell, dare you yes?
91
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:57.439
Yes, And yeah it was I was coming into I
92
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.439
was coming into the dispatch and you know, my dispatchers
93
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:05.120
are behind the computers typing away, and they're like, yeah, hey, savage.
94
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.560
Mom called and she said that, uh, it's okay, her
95
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:11.319
son's autistic. And I was like, oh, okay, he didn't
96
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:15.120
look autistic, and you just all the typing just stops
97
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:18.519
and then you just see like the head pop up
98
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:21.959
of the lead of the lead uh dispatches. She's like,
99
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:26.079
what do you mean he didn't look autistic? And I
100
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.000
was like, you know the odds and and they're like,
101
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:34.199
that's down syndrome. And I'm like, uh oh, I'm so,
102
00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:39.319
I like legitly didn't know. I like, uh it was.
103
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.879
It was not a good Everybody busted out laughing. I
104
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:44.879
was like, I'm sorry, it was an honest mistake.
105
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:46.360
I can't dig out of that one.
106
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:50.600
Yeah, I'm a law enforcement professional. I'm not a medical
107
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:52.920
professional here too diagnose.
108
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:57.079
And subsequently from that, I they were basically like, hey,
109
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.920
uh no, patrol deputies go to her places.
110
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.639
We got to learn how to talk to kids. I'm sorry.
111
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:05.279
Oh I'm telling now. I could not make it as
112
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:06.959
an s R. O. And
when one kid won't want
113
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.079
to talk back to me, I will treat him like
114
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:11.319
my marine father taught me yep, to not to talk
115
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:12.800
back to kids or not to talk to me.
116
00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:16.079
So I don't envy that job a bit. I don't
117
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:18.680
see an issue whatsoever. And when he said down syndrome,
118
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:20.000
and I thought they were talking about.
119
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:22.160
You, Yeah, I know, I know I do have it.
120
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:28.480
I do have it partially in the right eye, you know. Yeah,
121
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:30.279
you never you never know what we're gonna hear on
122
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:31.600
on here though.
123
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:38.480
But I do understand Chris that Savage likes to work out.
124
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:40.000
Savage does like to work out.
125
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:43.439
He likes to be hardcore with it during SWAT trainings
126
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:45.319
when we get ready to do any type of training,
127
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:49.879
but mostly PT, when we're gearing up or gearing down
128
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:52.120
whatever PT we're about to do with training, you look
129
00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:53.839
over and he's always putting his gas mask on.
130
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:55.480
It's like, all right, let's go, let's go.
131
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:57.000
And you know, if we're going to work out, we
132
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:58.720
should do it in gas masks because that's how men
133
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:01.040
do it, and so on, and always wants to do
134
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:02.360
gas mask mask.
135
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:06.759
It's true. Wait, what's the what's the affection towards gas mask?
136
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:09.879
So having been on the SWAT team a while.
137
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:15.399
Now, ninety percent of our calls are all using gas okay,
138
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:17.199
And I'm like, okay, well, we got to train the
139
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:18.040
way we fought boys.
140
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:20.959
Everybody a kid up. It's true. We're about to put
141
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:21.279
in some.
142
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:24.079
Work, pull a pin and throw a little I haven't
143
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:26.319
gotten that far yet, but I've wanted to. They just
144
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:28.759
don't let me get the gas because I honestly, if
145
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:30.839
they did, I'm like game changer boys.
146
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:32.279
Yeah, we're gonna.
147
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:34.079
Start with the flash bang and then we're gonna end
148
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:36.639
up with a little CS and yeah, go ahead and
149
00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:37.839
give me two hundred push ups.
150
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.199
Everybody's gonna be feeling it's a Saturday night of my house.
151
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:43.079
The lock on the
gas box is not because of
152
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:48.120
any type of federal regulations as far Savage.
153
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:49.319
Keep him out of the box. Yeah yeah, well yeah,
154
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.160
because I want you to deploy that stuff. Then you're
155
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:54.000
like thirty seconds into your workout, okay, everybody remove your mask.
156
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:59.560
Oh yeah, always those to toes. So I'm his workouts
157
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.399
are pretty okay. He loves to make sure we can't breathe.
158
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.600
So that's a great time.
159
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:10.160
Now, Chris, you watch so you know, stick on you
160
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:16.199
here and training. You mentioned you mentioned a story about taser.
161
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:20.240
Training, so well, prior to this, I've already went through
162
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:21.759
taser training, so I didn't think I had to do
163
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:22.120
it again.
164
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.560
But when my annually buddy, my old.
165
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:27.079
Agency, we finally got tasers and like, hey, we're all
166
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:29.160
going through it. I'm like, I'm certified. I don't need
167
00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:30.680
to do this, and he's like, nope, we're doing it.
168
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:36.080
So since I was certified, they were showing different targets
169
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:38.240
on the body and they're trying to get lower and
170
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:39.720
upper on my body.
171
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:42.200
Well wait, wait, wait, wait, wait wait, yeah, I mean
172
00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:43.679
it used to be you had to get in order
173
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:45.679
to get certified, you had to get hit with the taser,
174
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.159
and then they changed that you don't. I didn't have
175
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:49.759
to get hit with It's up to the agency whether
176
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:53.159
or not they do it. But you're talking re taser recertification.
177
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:54.559
You got to get hit again.
178
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.960
Right, and this is twenty twelve. Did everybody else get
179
00:08:59.000 --> 00:08:59.919
hit again or did you just fall?
180
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:01.360
Well, there was only two of us there that had
181
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:04.960
been certified prior, so they wanted everybody to go through it.
182
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:07.440
Oh of course, you know, and then I've already done it.
183
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.720
But so my first one, they actually stuck clips clamps
184
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:14.200
to me and crips. This one actually shot me, but
185
00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:16.960
again they wanted to show different positioning and they shot
186
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.120
me like I said, lowering upper and when they fired,
187
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.320
I hit the ground. And then they told me
where
188
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.759
it was and they weren't going to remove it, and
189
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:26.320
I had to do it myself because.
190
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.480
It went in between the cheeks on my bottom. Yeah,
191
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:33.799
we call that the plumber shot. Yeah. Uh.
192
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:38.080
So they cut the wire and the only bathroom was
193
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.960
a public bathroom in this community center. So I went
194
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.080
in there, I got my trousers, was in the mirror.
195
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:45.879
I had a bandage up and it I don't know
196
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:47.440
if you know, but your bottom bleeds a lot.
197
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:51.000
So I'm bleeding everywhere and this I wasn't aware of that. Noah,
198
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.200
it does, well, it does.
199
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:56.440
I pulled out and I'm getting ready to bange myself
200
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:59.759
up and some guys walk in and I'm just but
201
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:00.919
out blood everywhere.
202
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:03.120
They look at me like, what the hell just happened?
203
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:08.399
So did you lose something? It was bloody.
204
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:12.240
So that was my funny taser training situation I went through.
205
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:17.279
And I will never get tasted again on purpose. Now,
206
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:21.360
you you need like a lifetime exemption certificate.
207
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:24.840
Or I would rather get pepper spray all day, you know,
208
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.759
any day, if I had to choose to to Yes,
209
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:29.600
even gas, I did not do well with gas either.
210
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:33.679
But I I don't know though, Rather rather get tasted
211
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:36.679
in the pepper sprayed, I agree with you, but rather
212
00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:39.399
get taste in the butt.
213
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:42.480
Crack pursues pepper sprayed. I don't know.
214
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:44.559
Like I said, you get hitting the crack dis route
215
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:48.440
that injured career has been a plumber never again, you know.
216
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:52.679
But yes, therapy was probably needed, but you know it
217
00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:54.759
was over and done with once I got embarrassed and
218
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:55.159
so on.
219
00:10:55.440 --> 00:11:00.159
Ohc still sticks with you for ever. Yeah, that that's
220
00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:01.440
the gift that keeps on giving.
221
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:03.120
You think you got it all washed off, and then
222
00:11:03.840 --> 00:11:06.360
next day or whatever, it relights itself.
223
00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:09.440
I'm just glad they warned us to not just give
224
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:11.440
the water in our face in the shower, you know it.
225
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:13.360
Make sure you lean over. Absolutely.
226
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:15.120
We did have a guy in the academy that was
227
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:18.639
in a showers that just had on his face and
228
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:23.600
he starts screaming because it went down and.
229
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:33.960
Red hot twigs and berries. Yeah, everything flows downhill anyways, now, savage,
230
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:36.679
I want to call you savage. Savage is coul that's cool?
231
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:37.200
Uh?
232
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:40.279
Now savage you you said that you have an affection
233
00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:41.600
towards fences.
234
00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:44.559
Oh, they are the bane of my existence.
235
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:48.039
Really, I can't tell you the foot mint of foot
236
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.399
chases I've been in where the fence has got its
237
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:58.039
lick on me. Uh scars even I'm I am not
238
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:04.399
a precision instrument. I make blunt object. Yes, So if
239
00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:06.759
I see a fence, I want to run through the
240
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:10.279
fence because I know the fence will win if I
241
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.720
try to try to go over it. And one of
242
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:15.320
the one of the last times, it was about a
243
00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:19.080
forty forty yard section of fence and this dude runs
244
00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:21.360
from us out of the house and we take off
245
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:24.840
after him. One of my one of my deputies, skinny
246
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:27.159
petite dude, clears the fence and I'm like.
247
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:28.799
Oh yeah, it made it look easy. Oh yeah.
248
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:31.240
I was like, oh man, it and it's it's it's
249
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.360
sagging down like the bob wire has sagging.
250
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:35.519
So I was like, okay, dude, this is the day
251
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:36.399
I'm going to do it.
252
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.879
And I go, my foot catches the fence, I twirl,
253
00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.720
I hit the ground and all forty yards of the
254
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:48.320
fence just collapse down. Yes, And the farmer just looks
255
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:51.000
at me and I look at him. I'm like, I'm
256
00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:55.480
sorry about your fence, man. Yeah, metal fence it was.
257
00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:59.240
It was a mixture of wooden metal and pipe, all
258
00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.679
ball wired bob wired together. It was the most rinky
259
00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:05.600
dinky fence. But I still feel bad about it because
260
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:09.639
this this old time farmer, he's probably seventy years old. Yeah,
261
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:11.120
and he's just sitting there looking at me, and I
262
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:14.200
was like, in one fell motion, I'm so sorry.
263
00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:14.399
Man.
264
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.600
This poor
guy's like, you know what, the horses can't
265
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.799
even knock this thing down. This guy hits it just right, juggernaut.
266
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:22.240
Now how bad you feel? Did you go back and fix.
267
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.440
It for him? Oh? Oh no, no no, I mean
268
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:27.440
it's not that bad. Yeah, that's fair, that's fair.
269
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:31.039
But in the County not you are talking about some
270
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:34.799
other episodes about you know, concrete cowboys. In the county,
271
00:13:34.840 --> 00:13:38.039
it's mostly barbed wire. So if you don't it's not
272
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:39.480
like a wooden fence where if you hit it you
273
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.279
don't make it, you get a second try, and so on.
274
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:43.919
If you tried jumping that fence, if you don't make it.
275
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:50.159
You're getting cut up English me. Oh, I had.
276
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.639
I had to go home one day on patrol because
277
00:13:53.320 --> 00:13:56.600
it ripped my pants straight down the middle. And I
278
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:59.159
didn't know. I had no idea. And I got back
279
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:01.679
to my car and I sat down and I just
280
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:07.360
looked down. Yeah, and my patrol sergeant, I just got
281
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:10.360
off FtM my patrol s was like, go home, get
282
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:11.000
some new fants.
283
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:19.080
Okay, only have one left. That sucks. Yeah. Fences were
284
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:22.039
never my friend, Curtis you ever clear fence? Oh?
285
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:22.200
No?
286
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:25.440
Well, remember Brad, he was on the show while back
287
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:28.000
for Me and Polly and him. Me and him, we
288
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:30.399
were invised together and we were collections one day. All
289
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:32.279
we did was sitting there collections. They bring the people
290
00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.039
to us, right, And all of a sudden I hear
291
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.120
him screaming the radio that one of them took off running.
292
00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:38.559
So me and him hop in the van and we
293
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:40.600
drive around the river real quick, and I jump out
294
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:42.320
and I'm looking at this dude and I see him
295
00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.000
pop his head up, So I mean to come up
296
00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:46.039
with my gun. I'm ear screwing him with his gun.
297
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:48.679
And Brad's on the other side of the fence. And
298
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:51.159
you think it's poetic. He had been bragging about these
299
00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:54.279
brand new wranglers stretches. Man, they fit great. And he
300
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:55.960
comes up and he's like, help me cut this dude.
301
00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:57.919
I look down and he has ripped one leg from
302
00:14:58.159 --> 00:14:59.879
from ankle all the way to the crotch and he
303
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:00.440
looking at me.
304
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:02.759
I was like, what happened? He goes you started screaming.
305
00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:04.360
I didn't know what to do, so I just ran
306
00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:06.960
to the fence and I was like, I owt am
307
00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:07.519
a pair of pants.
308
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:09.360
After that. Oh yeah, that's that's a good partner out
309
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.879
there for you man. Yeah, he's well, absolutely sacrifice some
310
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:17.799
good pants there you go. Yeah, fence fences are just
311
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.519
they've they've never been my friend. No, they make good neighbors,
312
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:27.200
not partners. Fair point.
313
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:32.480
Now, last time we had we had you on Chris.
314
00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:35.799
Shortly thereafter the Wise County.
315
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:37.720
The guys at the Sheriff's office, you guys actually have
316
00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:39.320

the gifts to them. And it didn't have to be
342
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:04.119
you don't have to give it to him. They can
343
00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:06.240

344
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:08.720
about and collecting the you know, parking and so on,
345
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:13.359
it's it's a it's a funny event. It's hard, it's
346
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.519
hot and dusty. Hin the reason why I always try
347
00:17:16.559 --> 00:17:19.000
to get on the full wheeler. If you saw me that,
348
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:20.319
you saw me on it.
349
00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:21.920
That's all. I'm on the four whelder all the time.
350
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:24.480
I had my time in that's right, Chris.
351
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:25.880
As a matter of fact, when I was wearing my
352
00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:28.359
traffic vest and using my flashlight directing people where to park,
353
00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:29.759
I did see you pass by a couple of times
354
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:30.519
on a four wheeler.
355
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:36.000
So yeah, so much for brotherhood, Curtish, Well, you know
356
00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:39.759
how it goes. It's yeah, that's what.
357
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:40.000
I was doing.
358
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:42.279
The HILM I was driving by. Did you see me
359
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:44.519
driving a forwarder though I can't drive up my thumb.
360
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:46.400
Yeah, I was talking about that.
361
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:49.960
Yeah, it's yeah. The index finger is what I'm using.
362
00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:52.359
But I can do some crazy stuff in that full wheler.
363
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:54.640
I don't worry. He can only go a quarter of
364
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:55.039
the speed.
365
00:17:57.640 --> 00:17:59.599
I can't even read to them with dumb It's like
366
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:02.359
have my wrist underneath the throttle to touch it.
367
00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:05.960

down went to a call. This lady was barricaded herself
376
00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:38.079
inside the house. We didn't know she had barricaded her
377
00:18:38.119
--> 00:18:41.400
side herself inside the house, and she had she had
378
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:46.920
screwed in barn barn locks, so like two by fours
379
00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:52.799
across her her her door, and we're trying to get in, thinking,
380
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:55.960
you know that she's she needs us. So we're banging
381
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:59.000
down the door and one of my partners, uh, Corporal
382
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:01.680
Worsen uh uh, it's sitting there. I was like, all right, hey, uh,
383
00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:04.319
I found a hammer. Let's uh, let's knock this. Let's
384
00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:07.319

00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.720
door handle off, hammer releases from his hand, goes right
388
00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:20.680
between my legs. And this is caught on like four
389
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:22.920
different angles of our body cams.
390
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:26.759
Wow, and like I'm like, I now I'm scared.
391
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:30.319
I'm not. I'm not going behind you now the smell,
392
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:33.039
You're dangerous man. Yes, he was on the ball. Yeah

with that, with that hammer. Oh yeah, with that hammer
394
00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:39.920
he was deadly so. But what he has not said
395
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.400
in the body cam is that it was a repulsive smell.
396
00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:45.559
And I was like, you know what, it'screw it. I'm
397
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:46.640
going to get my gas mask.
398
00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:47.559
Uh.
399
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:49.680
Like I said, anytime I have the opportunity to use it,
400
00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:52.039
I grab it. So I grab it, I stick it on.
401
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:54.680
I'm the only one out of all the patrol deputies
402
00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:58.160
that has their gas mask on. And uh, Corporal worsing.
403
00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:01.000
Uh again he's like okay, hey, I'm gonna get through
404
00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:01.319
this door.
405
00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:03.720
Like okay. So he has that ball peen hammer again,
406
00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:05.559
he has that, he has a screwdriver.
407
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:08.480
You're not standing behind him this time, though, No, No,
408
00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:10.279
I'm I'm a little offset from him.
409
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:12.839
Uh. And uh, I go up.
410
00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:15.799
I find a pick axe, broken down pick axe on
411
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:17.039
the don't give that to him?
412
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:18.519
Well, no, no, this is it. I found it.
413
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.680
I was like a barn. Hell, we all at yeah,
414
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:24.400
this is a horror movie. This is just out in
415
00:20:24.480 --> 00:20:28.200
the county, man, this is And then they got the chainsaw. Hey,
416
00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:30.319
believe it or not, we were looking for a chainsaw.
417
00:20:31.680 --> 00:20:33.839
So I get up, I find the pick axe, and
418
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.960
I'm I'm standing like offset from him on the on
419
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:40.200
the walkway of this house, and he's like, okay, I'm
420
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:41.920
from the love of God. I don't know why he
421
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:46.319
had a screwdriver, but he hits the screwdriver on the
422
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:50.480
door and the entire walkway just collapses and caves in,
423
00:20:50.839 --> 00:20:54.599
and I'm like, uh, you know the butthole puckering moment,
424
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.519
like when you know you're on a dilapidated structure and
425
00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:01.960
you're just like, oh god, we're going yeah the other
426
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:03.799
baby hold together, yes.
427
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:05.400
And I was like, get off, it's my turn.
428
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:09.039
And so I just start smacking this door with this
429
00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:10.960
pickaxe like like.
430
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.160
A murder film. I'm just coming through the door. Here's Johnny. Yeah,
431
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.640
here's Johnny. Right. Finally ripped the door off and we
432
00:21:17.720 --> 00:21:18.240
get in there.
433
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:23.039
But the whole it became me being the gas mask
434
00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:26.519
guy is because like no one else had a gas mask,
435
00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:27.880
and I was like, huh, I'm gonna put one on.
436
00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:28.200
I can't.
437
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:32.880
I can't stand the smell. So uh it was another
438
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:33.759
day in West County.
439
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:36.599
So the smell you're talking about, I have a different
440
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:38.680
gas or a different mask for that, So that's what
441
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:39.319
I would put on.
442
00:21:39.799 --> 00:21:41.599
Oh yeah, oh, I don't have one of them. I know,
443
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:45.839
I know. I'm fancy. It's like the COVID ninety and
444
00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:48.720
I know the whole factor. Yeah, thing very well.
445
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.440
Well do you also know the the taser but factor also,
446
00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:53.400
That's what I was getting at.
447
00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:59.079
This is offbeat the like side of law enforcement.
448
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:03.920
Checked us out on line at offbeatcopshow dot com.
449
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.960
Let's talk to Daniel Cook now from Cook DFW Roofing
450
00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:11.880
and Restoration. Eight three three Cook DFW is the phone number.
451
00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:16.160
The website is COOKDFW dot com. How are you today, Daniel?
452
00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:20.440
Doing fantastic, sir? Thank you well, Daniel. We've got winter
453
00:22:20.559 --> 00:22:23.119
coming up here. Winter's a lot different from summer when
454
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:26.039
it comes to how it affects your your home and
455
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:28.839
there's there's a lot of things you know, you need
456
00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:31.319
to make sure our operating on your home that are
457
00:22:31.319 --> 00:22:33.599
in good shape. But what kind of what kind of
458
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.079
advice can you give give folks right now in regards
459
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:39.000
to making sure their home is ready for the winner.
460
00:22:39.799 --> 00:22:42.920
Yeah, Steve some great topics right there. So you know,
461
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.519
we always come out of summertime it's it's it's been
462
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:47.880
stressful in your home. It's been stressful in your yard.
463
00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:52.000
The heats really takes a beating. Now this year, we've
464
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:54.440
been very fortunate. This has been a very mild summertime
465
00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:58.039
that we've had, and plus we've had more precipitation than normal.
466
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:01.799
But even with those items like that, you know your
467
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:04.240
roof is still taking a beating. We've had some early
468
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:07.720
spring storms like we always did. We actually had storms
469
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:11.119
all the way until June this year, and then you know,
470
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:12.920
we've had a couple of months of hot weather, so
471
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:16.400
you don't know what your roof actually probably has wrong
472
00:23:16.440 --> 00:23:18.480
with it unless you get it looked at. And now
473
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:20.519
we're fixing to go into fall and winter, and you
474
00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:23.200
know we're gonna have heavier rains, we get some heavy
475
00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:27.079
thunderstorms in the fall time, So right now is a
476
00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:30.680
perfect opportunity to have us come out do an inspection,
477
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:33.759
make sure there's no major issues before you find out
478
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:36.039
the hard way when you have a storm coming through
479
00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:37.400
and then all of a sudden you start having water
480
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:40.119
coming in outside your house. So no worse feeling in
481
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:42.680
the world when it starts raining inside your house when
482
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:46.039
it's not supposed to. So let us come out, Let
483
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:48.200
us do the research for you. We take some pictures,
484
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:49.119
go over the evidence.
485
00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:51.039
You know, believe it or not.
486
00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:53.640
I would say, honestly, eighty percent of the time people
487
00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:56.319
do not need new roofs, but they're scared to call
488
00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:58.720
us because they don't want to have to get that information.
489
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:01.000
So just it was a shout. We'd love to come
490
00:24:01.000 --> 00:24:03.279
out and give you an honest opinion about your property.
491
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.680
Well, and instead of being scared to call to find
492
00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:08.319
out there might be a problem, think of it as
493
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:11.000
peace of mind of finding out that you don't have
494
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:13.839
a problem. But I did like the fact that you said,
495
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:16.440
when you find out it's raining inside your house.
496
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:18.480
That's that's not a good thing.
497
00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:22.680
But guys, give give Daniel a call at cook DFW
498
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:24.240

00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:26.319
a phase for two. Let's jump back into some of
534
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:27.240
these stories. Guys.
535
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:31.960
Uh now, savage, you you had mentioned something about a
536
00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:33.240
swat operation.
537
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:36.519
And being stuck in the car.
538
00:26:36.839 --> 00:26:40.920
Yes, sir, yeah, uh so, DPS had come with us
539
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:44.119
with a really high profile warrant and we went into
540
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:46.839
this compound about forty cars deep.
541
00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:50.000
It was awesome, uh, wild to see. You know.
542
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:56.079
I am in the process of replacing our breacher, so
543
00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:57.880
I have the breaching tools on my back.
544
00:26:57.759 --> 00:26:58.880
And wait, wait, I got a question.
545
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:01.000
Yes, sir, are you replaced your breaching tools with a
546
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:01.559
pick axe?
547
00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:03.599
You know, believe or not. I have it in my
548
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:07.319
patrol car. Okay, next to the gas preacher. Yeah. I'm
549
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:08.359
not the preacher anymore.
550
00:27:08.599 --> 00:27:11.480
Uh, but I was learning from the breacher who's a
551
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:16.400
just a stacked dude, and I saw I have his toolkit.
552
00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:17.079
Uh.
553
00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.519
On the back on my back, and I'm jammed inside
554
00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:23.559
of a tahoe. And generally you'd think that tahoe wide
555
00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:26.480
space you can get out now. Not not the case.
556
00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:30.000
We're in full kit uh no gas mask this time,
557
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:36.079
mind you. But I have the halligan and the bolt
558
00:27:36.119 --> 00:27:40.079
cutters like almost above my head because of I'm sitting
559
00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:43.079
in the seat. Well, we get up there, we're thirty
560
00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:47.440
seconds from objective, and I'm starting to, you know, get
561
00:27:47.480 --> 00:27:49.839
ready to get my head right. And we pull up
562
00:27:50.039 --> 00:27:53.039
not twenty feet from the door, and all the doors
563
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:55.839
fly open. Everybody starts running out of the cars, going
564
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.279
to their positions, and I open my door and I
565
00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:00.839
just go to get out, and I'm stuck, and like
566
00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:04.480
I want you to just picture this, like I'm half
567
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:08.039
my whole body is hanging out of the side of
568
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:11.680
the door and I'm like flailing my arms with a
569
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:15.119
rifle on my chest trying to get out. That's like
570
00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:18.960
right at six flags, yo, man, Like I was fighting
571
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:23.440
for my life and I don't think anybody understands. And
572
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:26.920
I was like one of one of the breachers. I
573
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:29.000
yelled his name three or four times, and you just
574
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:31.720
see his big old moose head turn around and he's like, oh,
575
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:33.359
he comes running back to me.
576
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:35.000
I was like, I'm stuck.
577
00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:38.799
I'm stuck, and he just like he has huge arms,
578
00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:41.440
so he just comes up and just rips me out,
579
00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:45.799
like knocks off the paneling inside the tahoe and and
580
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:48.400
I'm this is this is on objective to this is
581
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:50.319
twenty feet away from the door that we're about to hit.
582
00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:53.599
Like somebody helped mom go out of the car place.
583
00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:57.000
Yeah, And I was given I was given one rule like, hey,
584
00:28:57.480 --> 00:28:59.799
when we get to that door, you better be there.
585
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:02.640
And I'm sitting here like I'm not there. You're the
586
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:06.160
one guy we needed here. I'm not the one job.
587
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:09.279
One job failed. The guy with all the tools to
588
00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:10.200
reach the door.
589
00:29:10.759 --> 00:29:11.319
We are.
590
00:29:11.359 --> 00:29:13.720
We're just standing at attention like we'll we're missing here.
591
00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:15.960
Guys were the tools that guy he's still out there
592
00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:16.640
screaming help.
593
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:17.759
I was.
594
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:20.640
I was literally screaming help. So if you listen to
595
00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:26.359
the terminology to military over here, just so you know, yeah.
596
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:31.079
Military, Yes, we're branch. I was in the Army. Stir outstanding.
597
00:29:31.079 --> 00:29:33.799
Thank you for your service, sir. I think if you'd
598
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:35.119
had a fireman in the car, you've been okay.
599
00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:38.440
Yeah, well, they would have had a bigger truck. I
600
00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:41.680
would have had a lot more space. You know, maybe
601
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:43.039
he would have lived and let me
dress up to
602
00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:47.000
Every cop wants to be a fireman, right, that's why
603
00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:47.880
you're just.
604
00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:51.720
There that's got their job of being in a lounger
605
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:54.839
all day, just waxing your mustache.
606
00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:58.279
Well, and savage, you did mention.
607
00:29:58.799 --> 00:30:01.799
You did mention to me, so something about you know,
608
00:30:01.839 --> 00:30:04.119
and this might I don't know, you wouldn't have to
609
00:30:04.119 --> 00:30:05.799
worry about this if you're a fireman. But you mentioned
610
00:30:05.839 --> 00:30:08.039
something about leaving your pistol in the jail.
611
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:11.519
Oh yeah, yeah, I definitely did do that.
612
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:15.240
And this is not this is not just specific to you.
613
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:19.720
We hear a lot of these. Well, let's hear yours.
614
00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:23.640
Well, you know this is coming from the military background, right,
615
00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:25.200
And I was in I was in the infantry. So
616
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:28.160
if you if you left your weapon anywhere you were,
617
00:30:28.240 --> 00:30:31.960
your soul was crushed, your team leader. Yeah, and so
618
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:35.480
this is the first time ever, really that I had
619
00:30:35.559 --> 00:30:40.720
left my weapon anywhere other than with me, and uh, I.
620
00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:42.839
Stuck it inside the box, locked it up.
621
00:30:43.279 --> 00:30:46.759
Well, as like our radios can't really pick up a
622
00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:49.119
strong signal inside the jail at that time. And so
623
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:52.880
as I'm leaving the sally Port, I get a it's
624
00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:57.240
a call man with a gun threatening his neighbors, and
625
00:30:57.319 --> 00:31:00.680
so I'm like, oh hell yeah. So like I shoot
626
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:04.000
out of there, jumping my car and we're hauling. I
627
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.319
don't even know that I don't have my gun until
628
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:09.960
I get there. And when we get there, we end
629
00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:13.039
up having to clear three houses because dispatch got the
630
00:31:13.319 --> 00:31:17.880
got the uh the address wrong? Uh your hand that
631
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:21.400
point so so and here and this is the once again.
632
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:23.400
Everybody just close your eyes and picture this. Right, I
633
00:31:23.440 --> 00:31:25.880
get out of my car, right, I'm I'm first one unseen.
634
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:27.480
I get out of my car. And then he didn't
635
00:31:27.480 --> 00:31:28.119
get stuck, did he?
636
00:31:28.279 --> 00:31:29.079
Yeah?
637
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:32.160
Yeah, no, not not that time. So I reached down
638
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.160
and go to draw my weapon and my hand goes
639
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:35.160
inside my whole of.
640
00:31:35.160 --> 00:31:37.920
Your heart drops. Oh oh man, you got a little
641
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:40.599
key on a ring. Yeah, you got a right whistle?
642
00:31:40.759 --> 00:31:44.519
Yeah yeah? And then help yeah.
643
00:31:44.559 --> 00:31:47.279
And then my uh, my patrols supervisor gets there second
644
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:50.880
from me and automatically realizes that, hey, you left your
645
00:31:50.920 --> 00:31:54.720
pistol in jil and it just very subtly says that
646
00:31:54.759 --> 00:31:57.400
to me. Now and once again my heart is not
647
00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:59.839
even in my body anymore. Uh. And I was like,
648
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:02.640
you know what, I got a little bit bit of
649
00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:05.440
motivation because in the infantry you're a rifleman.
650
00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:08.880
And I was like, I got my riffle boys.
651
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:11.200
Well they are ironic part as you were heading to
652
00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:13.880
a person leaven you're a man with a gun and
653
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:14.960
you were the man without a gun.
654
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:15.920
Yes, yes, I was.
655
00:32:16.160 --> 00:32:18.400
Yes, it's a new age. We're trying to bring things down.
656
00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:22.200
Kinder Gitler, I'm unarmed. I'm unarmed, man. Put your gun down.
657
00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:23.279
Put your gun.
658
00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:28.160
See how far that one goes for you? New de
659
00:32:28.319 --> 00:32:32.720
escalation technique. You don't take your to the fight. It's like, look,
660
00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:35.920
my holster is empty. I'm not even wearing pants. Man,
661
00:32:36.720 --> 00:32:40.799
I did this for you. Five example why I stopped
662
00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:41.960
putting my gun.
663
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:44.440
Yeah, always put mind the trunk.
664
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:47.440
So the last time I forgot mine was in a
665
00:32:47.519 --> 00:32:50.039
trunk and I made it all it to a shots
666
00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:51.960
fired call and I jumped out, freaking out.
667
00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:53.400
But I had it in a trunk.
668
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:55.880
But keep on his old crown vict So when I
669
00:32:56.119 --> 00:32:58.559
got there, it was nowhere where I put it, So
670
00:32:58.599 --> 00:32:59.599
I search for it.
671
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:01.720
To my I was like, I.
672
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:04.119
Wouldn't put my gun baton on the flare box, so
673
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:05.960
the first time I took a corner, it would roll
674
00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:08.759
off and you hear you stop, get out just real quick.
675
00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:11.759
Yeah, I leave mine in my in my seat and
676
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:13.559
my driver's seat. So when I go to get in
677
00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:15.599
my car, I'm gonna sit on it if I don't
678
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:16.319
know it's there.
679
00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:22.200
Obviously, So he's a car pop. He's
not gonna get
680
00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:23.680
shot in the ass with the taser.
681
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:27.880
I can order for this. I got hitting the buttks.
682
00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:31.920
I just reached out a bit.
683
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:36.799
They said it was a making daughter wound. Yeah.
684
00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:40.359
Anyone who tells you they have not left their gun
685
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:41.920
in a lock box somewhere is.
686
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:47.119
Probably lying to you. Academy never made it. Arrest went
687
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:52.000
straight to admin. Oh wow, out a passage. Yeah, don't
688
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:55.559
tell my boss said that. Oh, I'm sure they won't
689
00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:58.000
hear this. No, we won't send it to him.
690
00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:01.000
All my admin have all been They worked from the
691
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:04.000
patrol up, so we're good that.
692
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:10.119
I'm aware of that. You're aware of all, right, Savage.
693
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:13.239
You also talked about trash under a laptop, and I'm
694
00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:15.440
assuming you're referring to the laptop in your car.
695
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:19.599
Yes, sir, Yeah, I don't know. I honestly don't know
696
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:23.599
where this story got started. But like my car is
697
00:34:23.840 --> 00:34:26.119
is pretty pretty good. I don't keep trashing it. I
698
00:34:26.719 --> 00:34:28.360
keep it nice. We have take on cars.
699
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:30.599
Okay, so this is just decided to you.
700
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:33.400
You're not no, I'm not sharing it with anybody. Well,
701
00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:38.599
my first car was a refurbished I say that word
702
00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:40.320
because the engine blew up and they gave us a
703
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:43.880
new engine. Not by me, but a prior deputy that
704
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:48.239
worked here. I got her car, and it was a
705
00:34:48.320 --> 00:34:52.639
nice car. I treated it well well, unbeknownst to me.
706
00:34:53.559 --> 00:34:56.079
She and I say she because I think she was
707
00:34:56.079 --> 00:34:58.119
the only person who had this car before me. Uh
708
00:34:58.840 --> 00:35:02.360
would go get fast food, water, Burger, McDonald's, the such
709
00:35:03.280 --> 00:35:07.800
and the base plate of the electronic board in the
710
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:11.960
center console was screwed off. Well, I mean I didn't
711
00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:13.159
think anything of it. This is the way I got
712
00:35:13.199 --> 00:35:16.079
the car. Well, what she would do was she would
713
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:20.360
stick all her trash inside the center console, inside the
714
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:24.599
electronic being underneath the underneath the laptop. I had no
715
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:28.119
idea about this. Well, it comes to me where I
716
00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:30.679
get to now change cars and get
a better car.
717
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:34.960
I give mine up and the head of the fleet
718
00:35:35.079 --> 00:35:38.480
was like basically just passed all this information around.
719
00:35:38.480 --> 00:35:40.599
It was like, hey, Savage has a whole bunch of
720
00:35:40.599 --> 00:35:42.599
trash in his car. That's the reason nothing works in there.
721
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:44.039
Like my radio would never work.
722
00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:47.679
My my laptop would die all the time, I couldn't
723
00:35:47.679 --> 00:35:51.400
get partial, most of the lights wouldn't work on my car.
724
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:52.639
And I'm and.
725
00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:55.199
I'm sitting there like I never knew why nothing would
726
00:35:55.199 --> 00:35:59.679
ever work in that car. But as the story is told,
727
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:02.199
and this used to make me very mad, believe it
728
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:05.599
or not, but it just got passed around the Sheriff's
729
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:08.760
office that I just stuck all my trash inside the
730
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:13.159
center console and I broke all my electronical equipment. Uh,
731
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:15.119
I was very upset.
732
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:16.880
To be honest with you, it's probably the cholesterol, I
733
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:17.519
wouldn't you.
734
00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:21.800
Yeah, yeah, so I've heard that story.
735
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:28.119
Until now, I didn't know it was that certain ex deputy. Yes, yes,
736
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:30.480
the story I've always heard. Well, I mean that's exactly
737
00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:31.880
what i'd say too, if you wouldn't work or her.
738
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:35.119
Yeah, well, if you knew who it was, you would
739
00:36:35.320 --> 00:36:38.039
got you would know well and and and everybody knew
740
00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:41.639
this story, and I didn't for I think I think
741
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:43.800
it got told to me a year or in some
742
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:46.559
change after the Sheriff's office me working at the sheriff's office.
743
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:50.039
It was just a hidden joke story, like I guess
744
00:36:50.039 --> 00:36:52.400
behind my back and I didn't know, and I got
745
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:54.760
cornered one time by my patrol shift.
746
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:57.159
Dude, why do you have so much trash in your car? Line?
747
00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:00.000
What are you talking about? Like, I don't have any
748
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:05.280
trash in my car? And then the halts fell.
749
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:08.039
More than likely the story started off with, don't tell savage,
750
00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:08.679
but listen to this.
751
00:37:08.920 --> 00:37:12.760
Yeah, Carlos clean, because it's all in the middle car.
752
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:14.039
Yeah, it's all hidden.
753
00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.480
Maybe don't we have like a pre checklist or something
754
00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:17.119
about checking it.
755
00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:18.840
I just put it on the trash shoot. I don't
756
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:20.119
talking about. Yeah, I never did.
757
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:24.639
Somebody not just shot out underneath the car. Yeah, I
758
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:29.239
didn't know. That's what it was for. That's why I
759
00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:31.800
have an admin package. I can't hide my trash anymore.
760
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:32.280
Yeah.
761
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:37.400
Well, and you know it's your coworker's responsibility to talk
762
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:38.519
about you behind your back.
763
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:41.599
Isn't that a requirement of the job? Worse than the
764
00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:45.920
high school? Yeah, it really is. Yeah, And I mean
765
00:37:46.280 --> 00:37:50.760
I'm sure if you were barefoot shoes around, people probably
766
00:37:50.760 --> 00:37:54.559
talk about that too. Yep, they definitely talk about that
767
00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:55.159
a lot. Uh.
768
00:37:55.719 --> 00:37:58.280
I am the only patrol deputy I think in Wise
769
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:02.960
County history that we're barefoot shoes on patrol. There is
770
00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:05.840
a story behind that which is not necessarily funny. But
771
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:11.960
I got into barefoot shoes after a pretty catastrophic foot injury.
772
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.440
And when the new sheriff and new chief came in,
773
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:17.800
we all had our meetings with the with the sheriff
774
00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:20.199
and the chief, and he asked me.
775
00:38:20.199 --> 00:38:22.719
It was like, hey, should I do a mandatory boot policy?
776
00:38:23.119 --> 00:38:25.559
And I'm like no. I was like, for the love
777
00:38:25.599 --> 00:38:28.320
of God, no, You're like why not? And I took
778
00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:30.400
off my barefoot shoe and I was like this is
779
00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:31.960
what I wear and I crumpled it up into a
780
00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:32.480
little ball.
781
00:38:33.000 --> 00:38:34.880
And he just like like.
782
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:37.280
Stared into my soul a little bit and You're like,
783
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:41.599
why do you wear that? I was like, well, sir,
784
00:38:41.679 --> 00:38:45.199
if I walk, if I have a patrol boot, I
785
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:48.000
will end up walking like an old man after about
786
00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:51.320
a week because of the injury I had to my
787
00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:55.400
foot and now having I still get made fun of
788
00:38:55.400 --> 00:38:57.840
all the time because believe it or not, first time
789
00:38:57.920 --> 00:39:00.119
ever wearing it. Your foot has to get strong. So
790
00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:01.880
if I stepped on a rock, he'd put me down.
791
00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:05.599
Like it's not it's not like a like battling a fence.
792
00:39:05.719 --> 00:39:07.519
It's stepping out of your car
hitting a rock.
793
00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:10.119
And oh so it's kind of like so you kind
794
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:14.239
of wear like moccasins, right, yeah, I guess you could
795
00:39:14.239 --> 00:39:14.920
say moccasins.
796
00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:17.880
Yes, they're just black. You can't really tell, not the
797
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:20.800
ones with the soules, the old yeah, the old moccasins.
798
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:23.840
Yet you have no soul. Yeah, no, so that's why
799
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:24.719
he doesn't have it. Yeah.
800
00:39:24.760 --> 00:39:27.920
But but but feet got stronger, and uh, yeah, I'm
801
00:39:28.039 --> 00:39:28.599
just that guy.
802
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:33.039
I'm I. I wear barefoot shoes. He's different. Barefoot shoes
803
00:39:33.039 --> 00:39:35.360
and gas mask. No, I don't do the gas mask,
804
00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:36.840
but I do wear bet for shoes. They're nice.
805
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:39.760
Yeah, Uh, they're comfey, like get your feet strong. But
806
00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:42.039
and you know what what I found on patrol, it's
807
00:39:42.039 --> 00:39:42.920
a very good conversation.
808
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:44.400
Start and say it's always good icebreaker.
809
00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:44.519
Man.
810
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:46.519
Ye, people down, yeah, and they do.
811
00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:48.920
And I don't know why people look down, but they
812
00:39:48.920 --> 00:39:51.960
look down at your feet and like are those barefoot shoes, like,
813
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:52.800
yes they are.
814
00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:55.239
Okay, now that that would come in great.
815
00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:57.360
Actually, if you're on the traffic stop, you're waiting for
816
00:39:57.400 --> 00:39:59.400
confirmation on a warrant, you got someone outside the car,
817
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:01.000
and you're just sitting there twiddle in your thumbs, trying
818
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:03.639
to kill five minutes a time for dispatch to come back.
819
00:40:04.719 --> 00:40:07.199
Oh yeah, people look at your like you look you
820
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:09.639
see them barefoot shoes like, I bet he has a cat.
821
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:15.599
I try to grow my hair up really long, you know, yeap.
822
00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:19.880
But oh it'd be fantastic.
823
00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:23.880
I wish I could do that, you would, now, No,
824
00:40:24.119 --> 00:40:27.239
in patrol, you know, in law enforcement, you come across
825
00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:30.079
You come across a lot of strange things. You find
826
00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:32.480
a lot of stuff out there. Yeah, I mean you're
827
00:40:32.519 --> 00:40:34.880
out there. In my case, I was. Whenever I was
828
00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:37.159
in patrol, we had we're on twelve hour shifts. You
829
00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:40.280
guys work twelve too, Yes, yep, okay, so you got
830
00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:42.519
a lot of time out there. You you stumble across stuff,
831
00:40:42.519 --> 00:40:46.679
You find stuff like LBJ six thirty five. When whenever
832
00:40:46.679 --> 00:40:48.960
we'll be out there, I meantime, you make traffic stop,
833
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:51.199
you walk back to your car, you find stuff laying
834
00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:55.159
around and I bring all this up because I actually
835
00:40:55.199 --> 00:40:57.840
found a unique item here recently.
836
00:40:59.360 --> 00:41:02.559
Yes, I did, and recently you've been been away for
837
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:08.159
a year now, a as a retiree. I found Okay,
838
00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:09.159
I found i'm.
839
00:41:09.079 --> 00:41:13.039
As an interesting item. But before we get to that,
840
00:41:13.239 --> 00:41:18.280
I must ask you guys believe in aliens or martians?
841
00:41:18.920 --> 00:41:21.800
I do, Actually you do. I've seen a lot of
842
00:41:21.840 --> 00:41:24.320
weird stuff in the skies that I cannot explain. Yeah,
843
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:26.159
and the problem is kind of fine, it's no good,
844
00:41:26.920 --> 00:41:27.880
no good, no probing.
845
00:41:29.400 --> 00:41:31.480
I lost my memory a few times. I don't. I don't,
846
00:41:31.519 --> 00:41:34.119
but that's the only thing I remember, and.
847
00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:40.159
You remember that you lost your memory. Well, and we've
848
00:41:40.159 --> 00:41:42.039
had we've had previous guests on the show before.
849
00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:43.159
We believe.
850
00:41:43.159 --> 00:41:45.480
He was an officer in the colony that that wrecked
851
00:41:45.480 --> 00:41:48.239
out one day and he said he saw something in
852
00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:52.679
the sky and called it, you know, unidentified flying object,
853
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:55.119
and that's why he hit the curb. And that's actually
854
00:41:55.119 --> 00:41:58.360
what he told uh accident investigator that actually had to
855
00:41:58.599 --> 00:42:02.760
They actually brought in an actual accident investigator and had
856
00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:06.320
him do the guy's state form or complete the crash report,
857
00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:08.239
and he actually drew a little he had a little
858
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:10.639
UFO that he imported into the diagram and had it
859
00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:13.000
on there. And then we've heard a story out of
860
00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:15.840
the Northeast from another officer where a lady had a
861
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:18.320
martian in her house and she couldn't get rid of him,
862
00:42:18.360 --> 00:42:20.760
and they they went and wrestled with this martian and
863
00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:22.039
threw an upstairs window.
864
00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:24.639
So I remember that. Yeah, so I'm a believer.
865
00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:29.480
And and I say all that because as first responders,
866
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:32.679
and especially the first responder with the last name Savage,
867
00:42:33.280 --> 00:42:35.920
you know, you run towards the
danger, you know, you
868
00:42:35.960 --> 00:42:40.159
don't you don't fear anything. So along that kind of lines,
869
00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:43.239
we've got Karen here in the studio today. Karen, there's
870
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:46.559
there's something. There's something over there in the fridge. Few
871
00:42:46.559 --> 00:42:47.960
you grab that for me.
872
00:42:48.960 --> 00:42:51.079
Her contract says, we had to say the beautiful Karen.
873
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:55.079
Yeah, the beautiful Karen. Karen just means you bitches a lot.
874
00:42:55.519 --> 00:42:57.639
So the beautiful, lovely Karen.
875
00:42:58.239 --> 00:43:04.000
Yes. So I want to I want the record to
876
00:43:04.000 --> 00:43:05.280
show that I don't even know what this is. So
877
00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:09.679
I'm kind of scared. Okay, wait for some alien hardware
878
00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:10.239
to show up.
879
00:43:10.360 --> 00:43:13.880
Okay, So what Karen's got here, She's got shot glasses
880
00:43:13.920 --> 00:43:18.159
for everybody, And then we've got the mystery drink.
881
00:43:19.719 --> 00:43:25.480
Are you ready? We've got Martian poop soda? Do this
882
00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:27.360
all right? Show?
883
00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:30.360
On today's show, we're going to we'll give a rating
884
00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:32.239
on this. We'll see what we feel about the Martian
885
00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:34.440
poop soda. And for those not watching on YouTube, I
886
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:38.159
can tell you this. You know it's it's a pink
887
00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:42.679
fluid and on the front it's got a pilot do
888
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:46.320
in screen, so it's green. Do you think anybody ever
889
00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:49.079
had Martian poop soda before? Can be first and say
890
00:43:49.159 --> 00:43:52.440
that I have not? That would actually be taller than
891
00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:53.599
a mountain dew, wouldn't.
892
00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:57.440
It a little play on words?
893
00:43:57.480 --> 00:44:03.000
Then it's gonna be at first. So let's see if
894
00:44:03.000 --> 00:44:03.639
they taste good.
895
00:44:04.079 --> 00:44:10.880
Pour up everybody a glasses little Martian poop here, and
896
00:44:10.920 --> 00:44:14.039
I will say we do. We do talk a lot
897
00:44:14.079 --> 00:44:17.119
about poop here on the show, but this is the
898
00:44:17.119 --> 00:44:21.440
first time I think we've covered Martian poop than Yeah.
899
00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:23.880
I mean, at least it's not like the liquid was
900
00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:26.880
not brown or anything, so yeah, I probably wouldn't drink it.
901
00:44:26.880 --> 00:44:37.440
If all right, guys, cheers, cheerers, your thoughts. It's like
902
00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:43.119
a unicorn, like a corn. That's pretty good. Taste nothing
903
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:46.199
like poop. So kind of tastes like pepto. Business taste
904
00:44:46.239 --> 00:44:47.960
nothing like poop. Have the taste of that.
905
00:44:49.039 --> 00:44:50.960
Hold, how do you know what? It tastes? Nothing like poop.
906
00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:55.760
I've never tasted. He was so fast, but that he's like,
907
00:44:56.199 --> 00:44:58.760
nothing like poop. I've been there before. Boys, what we
908
00:44:58.840 --> 00:45:04.960
do on squat? Helpable? Do at? Yeah? No, that was
909
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:09.679
that was refreshing, hydrating the whole thing. Absolutely. I don't know.
910
00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:11.719
I don't know about you guys, but I think I'm
911
00:45:12.920 --> 00:45:15.760
I think I would I would purchase the Martian Poop again.
912
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:18.320
Oh absolutely, And I would drink it if it was
913

981
00:49:16.079 --> 00:49:18.079
you brought an interesting story today, and I think we
982
00:49:18.159 --> 00:49:20.320
gould to close out the show with this one.
983
00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:21.440
Uh.
984
00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:24.800
This story is entitled how not to pay for drugs?
985
00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:26.639
And we do we try to be an educational show,
986
00:49:26.719 --> 00:49:29.239
absolutely so, Chris, if you could tell us how not
987
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:33.519
to pay for drugs? Sir, Yeah, don't buy drugs? That
988
00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:35.440
was our public service. Thanks, that's coming next week. Say no,
989
00:49:35.480 --> 00:49:37.880
it's been a good show. Guys here later. Don't buy drugs.
990
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:39.519
Drugs. Drugs are bad. Uh No.
991
00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:42.480
Years ago, where I used to work at, you know,
992
00:49:42.599 --> 00:49:45.599
crack okaine was a a big thing down there, and
993
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:46.360
it's super cheap.
994
00:49:46.679 --> 00:49:50.559
Keep in mind it's extremely cheap, but uh and it's affordable.
995
00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:53.440
Yeah yeah, yeah, at least back till it was just
996
00:49:53.480 --> 00:49:56.559
throwing it out there. So I got called to a
997
00:49:56.840 --> 00:49:59.559
death call to go investigate it and then take the report.
998
00:49:59.679 --> 00:50:01.599
So I she was always do go show up and
999
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:04.960
there's this lady that can't stop moving and so on.
1000
00:50:05.039 --> 00:50:07.719
So she's obviously under the influence of something or had
1001
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:10.239
been for a really long time, and she wanted to
1002
00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:13.199
report some items of hers that were stolen. So she
1003
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:16.159
goes to the story of telling me how she made
1004
00:50:16.199 --> 00:50:20.679
a deal with the guy for some drugs, and so
1005
00:50:20.719 --> 00:50:22.920
obviously I'm asking like, hey, yeah, so what's the deal
1006
00:50:22.960 --> 00:50:25.280
and why are you reporting your drugs stolen?
1007
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:29.039
That's illegal, but it's hers. She's like, it's mine.
1008
00:50:29.719 --> 00:50:32.119
And then also she had her I don't know if
1009
00:50:32.119 --> 00:50:36.639
you want to her kitten stolen or prison wallet. However,
1010
00:50:36.679 --> 00:50:39.360
you want to call it. So the deal was, was
1011
00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:43.320
she do a sexual act with him and he would
1012
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:47.519
give her crack cocaine. Uh, so he did these sexual act,
1013
00:50:47.639 --> 00:50:49.920
got up and just left and didn't give her anything.
1014
00:50:49.960 --> 00:50:52.840
So she wanted to report that. So she she got screwed.
1015
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:55.639
She she literally got screwed. Well, she was trading crack
1016
00:50:55.679 --> 00:50:56.079
for cracks.
1017
00:50:56.119 --> 00:51:00.199
So yeah, so that was I mean she and you
1018
00:51:00.239 --> 00:51:02.440
have to be there, like you see me moving around,
1019
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:04.840
but she could not stop moving and you know, scratching
1020
00:51:04.840 --> 00:51:07.960
her face and just you know people see movies and
1021
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:12.159
so where you know the twitch. Yes, so, uh, she's
1022
00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:14.800
just telling me all about how she did this act
1023
00:51:14.840 --> 00:51:19.639
and he stole everything, stole her service, stole her cat,
1024
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:21.840
and then stole her crack cocaine, and she wanted him
1025
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:25.119
found injustice for everything and she wants her items back.
1026
00:51:26.079 --> 00:51:28.760
So you know, obviously told her that I was working
1027
00:51:29.159 --> 00:51:32.360
diligently on finding this guy and arresting him and getting
1028
00:51:32.360 --> 00:51:33.159
her IELs back.
1029
00:51:33.199 --> 00:51:36.000
But as we all may know, it's.
1030
00:51:36.719 --> 00:51:38.320
That if i'd have found him, I'd have got him
1031
00:51:38.360 --> 00:51:40.440
for theft of services and theft under a hundred.
1032
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:44.400
So I don't know, Yeah, I have to say it.
1033
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:46.880
He may she may owe him money.
1034
00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:51.639
Looking at her, I don't know, it's pretty desperate to
1035
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:53.320
be going that direction with there, I promise you.
1036
00:51:53.880 --> 00:51:56.079
Yeah, so let that Let that be a lesson.
1037
00:51:56.159 --> 00:51:59.440
You know, you don't don't report the theft of your
1038
00:51:59.480 --> 00:52:02.440
drugs or the theft of your pets.
