SPEAKER 09 :
Dana Lash’s Absurd Truth Podcast.
SPEAKER 10 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 02 :
This is like a Mad Libs headline. A Florida man is accused of mooning and then chucking soda at a group of teenagers inside of a McDonald’s. Or as my grandmother would have said, a MacDonald’s. The man, William Heath is his name, he doused two teenagers in soda and then mooned them. Well, why did he do that? We don’t know. I mean, why does anybody do the crazy stuff that they do? He thought they were staring at him. He wandered into the McDonald’s in Gainesboro, Florida, and became visibly agitated when he saw a bunch of teenagers looking at him, probably because he was acting like a freak. But, you know, we’re just going to skip over that part. He stormed over to the teens who were seated in the dining area and started an argument. And then he threw soda at them, Dr. Pepper, in case you wanted to know, according to the police report. And then he flopped down in a bush near the sidewalk and pretended the group had ganged up on him and shoved him into the bushes. Then he turned around and dropped his pants and spanked himself and then caressed his left buttock cane. Whoa. Witnesses who watched the bizarre scene unfold told police they never saw the teenagers initiate any kind of physical contact. He just was shouting obscenities and sexual slurs at the minors, apparently. He was read his rights. He tried to defend himself by saying that they had upset and insulted him. You got insulted probably because you’re a freak. And so then he he yeah, he went to the pokey. Tomorrow, I’ll talk about the guy who tried to hold up a Taco Bell with a large rock. No, this is a different one. I kid you not. Hands to sky. I’ll say I’m not. Dude, I don’t know what’s up. But, man. Also, a guy stole a food truck. A Florida man was arrested because he stole a whole food truck. Well, wait. What kind of food truck was that? Let’s look. That’s very important to know. Ooh. Ooh. It sounds like it was a Mexican food truck. That sounds really delicious. I’m not saying that it’s okay. I’m just saying if you were going to steal one, that’d be the one you’d go for. That’s some good stuff on there. All right. It was in Fort Myers. He’s in trouble. He also stole two other food trucks before that third one. So apparently, let me pull this up. I saw this from a couple of people. My very good friend, David Limbaugh, whose brother, as you know, the great Rush Limbaugh, previously occupied this time slot. And people like Ryan Savadera and others. So they had the White House Religious Liberties Commission yesterday morning. And apparently Seth Dillon from the Babylon Bee was there and several other people, including this beauty pageant queen. I don’t remember which one it was. It was like a finalist or had competed or something. I don’t remember. Don’t remind me because I don’t care. I think she did a stint on Fox at one time. What’s her name? Carrie Prejean? Baller? Bowler? So she was defending Candace Owens and going after Seth Dillon. Now, I don’t mind healthy debate, but what I dislike are people who try to act like bouncers for heaven. And… Then proceed to behave in an ungodly manner. That’s that’s, you know, kind of an issue. So what happened here is she decided to confront Seth Dillon and was aggressively defending. I guess we’ll start with what cut nine. Let’s start with cut nine. God help us if I have to play more than two sound bites of this mind numbingly ridiculous brain slop. Go ahead with cut nine.
SPEAKER 06 :
I would really appreciate it if you would stop calling Candace Owens an anti-Semite. Well, she is. She’s not an anti-Semite.
SPEAKER 02 :
She literally is.
SPEAKER 06 :
She just doesn’t support Zionism, and that really has to stop.
SPEAKER 08 :
She doesn’t support Israel. Okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER 06 :
I don’t know why you keep bringing her up in Tucker.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, because they’re the two most famous anti-Semites.
SPEAKER 06 :
There you go again. Everyone’s an anti-Semite. Just like everyone’s a Zionist. So if you don’t support Zionism, you just said you’re not an anti-Semite, yet Candace is an anti-Semite.
SPEAKER 08 :
I think she goes far beyond not merely supporting Zionism. She calls Jews the synagogue of Satan. She denigrates anyone who… She often uses the word Zionist and the word Jew interchangeably. At one point, she slipped up and used the word Jew, and someone said, oh, you’re not saying Zionist anymore? She’s like, no, gloves are off.
SPEAKER 06 :
So do you think saying Christ is king is anti-Semitic?
SPEAKER 08 :
No. Christ is king. Amen. Christ is my king.
SPEAKER 06 :
He’s the king of the universe. Such a performative question.
SPEAKER 08 :
So that’s what started the whole thing with her, right? But, oh, my thing with her. Yeah, what I explained to her, and this is what she considered this deep betrayal, was simply that the phrase Christ is king has been admittedly by many co-opted for the purpose of identifying with a groiper movement And putting the Jews in their proper place to show them that they are other than. And they will use the phrase in very, very nasty context. Like I cited in my statement earlier, Christ is king, you dirty Jew. I’ve had that told to me dozens of times. Do you think that that’s anti-Semitic?
SPEAKER 02 :
So first off, let’s start with that phrase because that, when was that? Like over the summer, over the past year, it was, I mean, it wasn’t used as a phrase of worship. It was blasphemy because people were not actually exalting God. They were using it as a cudgel against people they don’t like because of their origin. And I shouldn’t have to explain that to smart people. smart people understand the difference. And so I do find it incredibly discourteous to act as though when you say that, that you’re not blaspheming while you’re trying to put someone down because you don’t like their origin or you don’t like their ideology, etc. I find that to be incredibly weird. I also don’t think that you can’t be heaven’s bouncer if you make sex tapes. Let’s just be very straightforward about that. And I’m not saying anything that hasn’t been admitted to publicly by Miss Bowler, Baller, whatever her name is, or widely reported on. I just think that, you know, I don’t know how she ended up on this panel. I think she was incredibly out of her depth on this panel. And I feel like all of us shouldn’t be punished because the blonde version of Kardashian doesn’t have the same business acumen and wasn’t able to make the same thing happen for her based on her sex tape that Kim Kardashian was able to make for herself. So feel like that’s, you know, I just feel like if you’re making sex tapes and you’re taking nudie photos and all this other stuff that maybe your judgment is on other issues isn’t going to be great either. And I feel like that’s incredibly fair to say, especially when you’re trying to act like the bouncer for heaven. right? And you’re saying things like Christ is King, not because you’re exalting Jesus Christ, but because you’re trying to use it as a cudgel against to Jews, right? That’s the crazy thing. Um, for the people who read with photos, because I feel like this is a pattern of behavior. So I actually, I didn’t really know anything about this chick. I had to look, I didn’t know who she was or where she came from. Uh, but apparently she was like a beauty pageant person and she ended up getting, uh, Oh, it’s Miss California, USA. And she apparently got her title taken from her looking at widely reported pieces here because she apparently there were some intimate photos that came to light. And there she was accused of not doing fulfilling her contract by doing appearances. And so apparently that’s why they were they took her title. And to save face, to me, it seems like she decided to make it out like they were punishing her because she was Christian or because she didn’t support same sex marriage. And that seemed to come up later. The stuff about not doing the appearances and the existence of these photos and video, et cetera, that seemed like the thing. Because they apparently that was like a character clause in their contract and they had an issue with that. That’s not unusual, by the way, with like pageant stuff or even high profile roles, you know, for your job. That’s not unusual. So it seemed kind of like to save face. She had to make it about that. So, you know, I mean, to me, at least when when I’m reading everything. So and then they had to she had to settle and all of this stuff and et cetera, et cetera. So I just feel like, I don’t know, if you’re like you compromise yourself in certain ways, I just don’t feel like I’m going to be trusting your judgment on other issues. That being said, I think she was very much out of her league here. And then she and she was saying that she doesn’t want to be a slave state to Israel. She said this while wearing a Hamas pin. You can say, quote unquote, Palestine, but I don’t use that phrase because Palestine is a made up word for an entity that’s never existed. So she’s wearing that’s that’s like the Gaza or that’s the Gaza flag with the United States flag while she’s tweeting about how she doesn’t want to live or be operated by as a slave state by Israel. So she’s, you know, promoting Hamas propaganda. She’s wearing the Gaza flag. And then she does this. This is cut. 10. Oh, gosh. This is the last one I’m going to play. I’m not going to rot your brain anymore. I promise. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 06 :
One last follow-up. Since we’ve mentioned Israel a total of 17 times, are you willing to condemn what Israel has done in Gaza?
SPEAKER 05 :
No, because I unilaterally reject that it’s not a genocide. The only genocide ever carried out was on October 7th when Hamas tried killing every man, woman, and child they could possibly find.
SPEAKER 06 :
70,000 innocent civilians killed. You won’t condemn that? You won’t condemn that? Just on the record.
SPEAKER 07 :
Excuse me. As chair of the committee,
SPEAKER 06 :
I think it’s important we have this discussion. I agree. I’m happy to answer.
SPEAKER 07 :
And Carrie, it is important.
SPEAKER 06 :
I think we’d be great friends. Yeah.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m happy to answer. Carrie, we have had the discussion. Good questions. Good answers. This is a commission on religious liberty. If there’s another commission on this issue.
SPEAKER 02 :
The fact that Dan Patrick had to jump in.
SPEAKER 07 :
To be fair, you brought it up.
SPEAKER 02 :
Look, Ben Carson is sitting there. How did Carrie Prejean, whatever her name is, get on this panel? She is entirely out of her depth. She hijacked it to pull a stunt. I mean, she’s sitting there with actual smart people. And the fact that Dan Patrick had to intervene, Dan Patrick of all people. She looked like an idiot. And first off, you’re citing Hamas numbers. Do you realize that Hamas told on themselves when they made an announcement about their contributions to their martyrs fund just this past month? Everyone’s aware of that, I’m sure. The numbers were so wildly disproportionate to what has been promoted in the press from the same Hamas Ministry of Information. In fact, it’s like a third of that. And they’re all adult males fighting age. And they wanted they were donating to their martyrs fund. I just find it incredibly interesting that the person who’s wearing the Gaza slash Hamas flag has no questions as to why Hamas chose to do this in Gaza. And it has nothing to do with Zionism. And I’m really, really tired of very unintelligent people who can’t define Zionism, accusing everyone who disagrees with them about hating to Jews of being Zionist. I find it vapid. It’s boring. You need new material at this point. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a quote unquote Zionist. Not everyone who disagrees with you believes that revelation is a prophecy that exists for today. Not everyone thinks that. Some people just think that these are people who have a right to live in the land that they have always lived in for thousands of years, which is supported by thousands of years of antiquity in both Christian history, Jewish history, and even Islamic history. So that’s really, you know, the nature of a lot of people’s viewpoints on this. But what what people like Carrie Prejean or whatever her name is, whatever what people like that do is they oh, well, you’re Zionist. They immediately use a leftist tactic and invoke a logical fallacy of trying to say, well, you’re guilt by association or go to Cito. You are you cannot be taken seriously because we are putting you in this category of people as a way to neutralize your opinion. That makes it easier for them to do instead of having to have the wits to push back specifically on your viewpoint. And this is a tactic that I see all the time from the left, the same left. that practices the same identity politics that I see being practiced here on that so-called religious panel that was unfortunately hijacked by a beauty queen who made a sex tape and wants to get attention for herself. And if you dislike my opinion on that, then I suggest you take issue with the widely reported to and admitted fact that my opinion is based on. You’re welcome. Now, furthermore with this, the idea of, I mean, be a Ben Carson there. You had a lot of really smart people there that I would have really rather heard from. I don’t even understand how this erupts into what it is. How are you on a religious panel and you’re wearing the Hamas Gaza flag? while you’re simultaneously declaring that you don’t want to live as a slave state under Israel. And then what’s more is there was the tweet storm where she was accusing everyone who disagreed with her of somehow infringing upon her First Amendment right. What? That doesn’t even make any sense. I responded to that. I think it was last night. I just don’t quite understand it. She apparently is anybody who disagrees with her. Apparently, she said it’s an anti-American, anti-Christian rhetoric. And she said Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson are expressing their First Amendment right to free speech. And they have that right, even if you don’t agree with them. My thought was, well, you don’t get to restrict our First Amendment right to call out the absolutely idiotic garbage that they say. And now, like a leftist, she’s trying to argue that people are trying to get her fired. She’s like, I’m not going to be forced to embrace Zionism. Well, no one was asking you to do that. And she says, I’m not a slave to a foreign nation while she wears the Hamas-Gazan flag pin. I mean, the lack of self-awareness is truly stunning. But again, when people compromise themselves by making sex tapes, I really do judge them. their, I question their judgment on other issues. But no one’s forcing, I mean, name names, who’s trying to force anybody to embrace Zionism. That’s such a leftist tactic. It’s leftist, ungodly behavior because you’re bearing false witness while you’re also trying to act as the bouncer for heaven. That doesn’t work. And real Christians who actually try to really practice their faith instead of just use it for clicks are noticing this.

Put all your gear on that you carry and then roll around on the ground. Now get up. All your gear that’s on the ground, that’s what you’re not going to have in a fight.
SPEAKER 09 :
Gun Talk should be in your podcast feed. Check out Gun Talk Nation. What’s it like to be blown up? You know, if it’s like C4, it’s almost like a smack. Hunting. Yeah, we talk about that too. On your crosshairs, I like a thin crosshair. AJ, you’re really dating yourself by calling things crosshairs. You’re reticle. Whatever. Have some fun and stay informed with the Gun Talk Podcast.
SPEAKER 10 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 02 :
A man is accused of selling pizzas after hours at Little Caesars and then just keeping all the money. I actually saw a commercial for them the other day. You know they’re doing thicker crust now? It was always thin crust. Now they’re doing like what they said was Detroit style. And I was like, does that mean there’s bullets in it? Just wondering. Yeah, a guy made some he started selling pizza hours. And this is in North Carolina. 41 year old John Hackett. He broke in a date while they it was in connection with a break in and they found out that he was selling the stuff after hours and just, yeah, making pizzas and keeping all the money or dough for himself. I was trying not to make that joke. Oh, Discord is going to age lock your account next month and you’ll have to submit an ID or accept a face scan. This was four months after they had a third party data breach. Yeah. Do we really trust Discord? Do we trust them? You trust that? Because I don’t. They’re going to age lock your account now. They said we’ll find other ways to bring users back. I don’t know if that’s gonna work that well for them, but okay, you can try it and see what will happen. A toddler climbed into a claw machine at Soccer Dome in Webster Groves. This is actually in a neighborhood I used to live right next to when we first got married. A little boy got stuck inside a claw machine, and it happened at the Betta Sports Soccer Dome in Webster Groves. According to the two-year-old’s family, I mean, they were watching his brother play soccer. There’s photos. And he got into the machine somehow. That’s actually pretty smart, getting in the machine. He was in there for like 20 minutes. Didn’t seem phased. They had to call firefighters.
SPEAKER 10 :
How does this still keep happening, though? Like, wouldn’t you think they’d have some sort of…
SPEAKER 02 :
improvement on the machine that doesn’t allow toddlers to get in this just makes me want to get somebody’s toddler and get stuff out of the machine without having to play the game that’s how i’m looking at this like you would think like recruit or hire a time yeah yeah yeah like the cartel does with kids at the border you know what i’m saying just like but like have them get in the machine to get some of the loot that’s in there because you know them claws they let things go idea If you’ve ever played one, you know that as soon as you get something, it lets it go. It does it on purpose. It’s all on purpose. Every year, there’s a couple of those stories that happen, and I just never can figure out how they do that. Let’s see. Musk is clipping his Mars settlement ambition. I don’t think he’s clipping it. I think he’s just prioritizing going to the moon first because it’s probably more… doable at this point in time, but the media struggles to understand nuance. I don’t even know why this is a story. Oh my gosh. Mass piranha attack is something I never thought I would see. This is like what you would see on Bugs Bunny. 40 swimmers were injured in a horrifying mass piranha attack as lifeguards ordered an emergency evacuation. One victim lost a finger. Oh my gosh, there’s blood everywhere. I’m not kidding you. It was in the city of Victoria in Argentina. And local health authorities, they said that they had to treat tons of people over the weekend. Kids and adults, they had bite wounds. And these fish, like there’s a, oh, this is a horrible photo. Somebody lost a toe. Somebody lost a whole toe. Somebody had a chunk taken out of the bottom of their foot. Someone had a chunk taken out of their calf. That’s insane. 46 people were injured. And they said most victims had serious injuries. All 46 cases were serious, they said. They went through, like, in the first minute, three first aid kits. That’s crazy. And then one of the victims had to have an amputation of another finger. So basically two fingers were bitten off. That’s crazy. I mean, it’s like Looney Tunes. That’s horrible. Stick with us. We’ve got more in store. Welcome back to the program. Top of this third hour, Dana Lash with you. And you can also find us YouTube, Facebook and Substack. Don’t forget to find us there. OK, so I’m not doing wall to wall Guthrie stuff because I think it’s there’s a little too much saturation happening there. I mean, it’s sad, but I’m not going to. If you want to watch wall-to-wall coverage of it, there’s NBC and ABC and all that stuff. But one thing that struck me, I thought this was kind of like a weird thing for the media to focus on. The sheriff, the Arizona sheriff, who is apparently spearheading the investigation of that woman, Savannah Guthrie’s mom, They said that he was spotted sitting courtside at a University of Arizona basketball game Saturday night. And like they were shaming him for it. I’m confused. Why? Why would they shame him for that? And it’s all like it’s everywhere. Oh, my gosh. He’s can you believe he’s at the band? People were there were like pictures of him. The press had photos of them of him there. And they said, oh, he’s spotted at the basketball game. And he’s got… And now there’s backlash. So the press wrote all about it. And now they have a ton of backlash. There’s a ton of backlash on this guy, Chris Nanos. He’s facing criticism because he was spotted attending a local sporting event on Saturday night. What is… I’m confused. Is that… Let me try to understand this. Is the standard operating procedure that you just stay on the case until there’s resolution? No sleeping, no eating, no doing anything? I’m curious. Is he not allowed? Because it’s his job, what he’s doing. I’m just… I don’t know. People were saying that they were very troubled that he was at the game. I am really confused by this.
SPEAKER 10 :
The intimation is that somehow because he’s at the game, the investigation is not happening and there’s no on the ground work going on to find Nancy. So I think that intimation is completely inaccurate.
SPEAKER 02 :
Yeah, it seems like it. I mean, the guy can’t. He’s not allowed to. I mean, how? You know, I hope it doesn’t. I hope they find her and all of that, but good night. It just feels like it’s already a bad enough story. Why would anybody want to make it worse by throwing in… drama that seems a little sensational on top of it i feel like people are dealing with enough there right yeah like they you don’t need to throw that on top of it the guy went to a basketball game saturday evening is he not allowed to do that is he allowed to go home is he allowed to take his uniform off is he allowed to you know go to the i mean can you grab a bite to eat anyway yeah i mean let’s that’s that seems a little much And there’s a million articles about it. A million. I feel like the press created it and then everybody reacted to it. And now the press is like, ooh, there’s criticism. There’s pushback. No, you did it. You did it. You made it an issue and then you’re reacting to it. I mean, I don’t know. It’s weird to me. I mean, have you looked at it? I mean, it’s everywhere. There is a million stories of this. Sheriff leading the Guthrie investigation spotted a basketball game. Spotted a basketball game. That’s what it is. Oh, he gets backlash for attending the game. Here’s MSN. Sheriff in charge of Nancy Guthrie investigation is caught watching basketball game. An actual headline. He’s caught watching the basketball game. Click that link, Kane. He’s caught watching the basketball game. Sheriff slammed over basketball game scandal. After new Nancy Guthrie update. Now it’s a scandal.
SPEAKER 10 :
Can we define scandal for a second? I mean, scandal. What’s the scandal?
SPEAKER 02 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 10 :
What is it?
SPEAKER 02 :
I would think. Because wasn’t it Dupnick, the previous sheriff that was in this position? He was there when Giffords was shot in Tucson. And he’s the guy who went out and blamed literally the Tea Party and incited violence against Tea Party activists that literally had to like worry for their lives. And then a guy threatened to kill the Trent Humphreys, the Tea Party leader on live television. It was a CNN or ABC town hall. And they threatened this guy threatened to kill him, murder him on live television. That’s a scandal involving that office. Just being at a basketball game isn’t. What in the world? Now, am I missing something? I mean, those who are experts in law enforcement, by all means, correct us if we are in error.
SPEAKER 10 :
We are not in error. Nobody can work 24-7 without sleep or eating. Stop.
SPEAKER 02 :
I mean, it feels like this guy’s supposed to. I don’t know. Like, I can’t believe he’s caught sheriff slammed over basketball. Basketball game gate. Oh, my gosh. It’s like they’re making it worse.
SPEAKER 10 :
That’s ridiculous. And the story you shared with me, which, by the way, is ridiculous. Him being caught watching a basketball game. It says here it’s quoted someone saying it seems odd, given how emotional he was throughout the week during interviews, saying he believes that she’s still alive and how desperate he is to find her. But think about that. The amount of stress and the amount of decompression you’re going to need as an individual when you’re going like that and emotionally invested in that, you need some time. You need some depression. Decompression.
SPEAKER 02 :
You need to be able to unplug a little bit because fresh eyes and all. You have to. I mean, that’s a very stressful position. But I’ve just never… I don’t think that I’ve ever seen anybody begrudge some, like what if he had been out with his family eating dinner? Would it have been the same thing? Like he’s not, he didn’t, he wasn’t the one who kidnapped her. He’s trying to figure it out, but he also needs to be able to take a break. And I mean, how long are basketball games? They’re not that long. Come on. Yeah. It’s just an evening.
SPEAKER 10 :
God, I hope he didn’t watch the Superbowl.
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, heaven forbid. No, I hope he doesn’t enjoy anything in life right now. I mean, I don’t want to be, you know, flippant over it, but holy wow. I’m just amazed at this.
SPEAKER 10 :
I’m going to go out on a limb and I’m going to say this investigation involves more than Sheriff Nanos. There’s more people involved in this investigation than Sheriff Nanos.
SPEAKER 02 :
But it’s all his fault. It just, you know, like I said, I don’t want to be mean because it’s a very sensitive, it’s a horrible thing and I wouldn’t wish it on anybody. But my gosh, like back off the dude for a second. Kane, you see how many pages there are of this? Sheriff investigating Nancy Guthrie case faces backlash. He attended a basketball game. Now, when I see these headlines, my first thought is, oh, my gosh, did he? Was there a malpractice? Did he do something wrong?
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER 02 :
Was he derelict in duty? No, he went to a basketball game. Every single one of these. I’m still scrolling through the headlines. Wow. It’s blasted for attending basketball game.
SPEAKER 10 :
Terrible optics.
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, my gosh. What? Yeah. On and on and on and on. Never ending headlines. They are going at this guy. The basketball game. Can we stop? This is a totally different aspect of the story. Can we stop putting gate after things? I know it’s like Watergate, but now somebody actually said basketball game gate. No, it’s not. It’s not a thing. That’s not a thing. Stop doing that. you know, it’s unfortunate and I feel bad for them, but this guy, that’s not right to, you know, slam this guy just because he was at a basketball game and everybody’s taking pictures of him and they’re acting like, you know, he’s a criminal or that he’s a bad sheriff or something. It’s just, good heavens. Oh, now here’s a headline for you. Ooh, boy. So, Kurt Cobain, oh, I know, you’re like, wait, what? Nirvana, what? Kurt Cobain’s death, now they’re, they’re, uh, The King County Medical Examiner at the time ruled it a suicide by Remington. Now an unofficial private sector team of forensic scientists put fresh eyes. So it’s not an official. This is Daily Mail being sensational. It’s not an official thing. But they’re saying that it looks like a homicide to them. Cue the Courtney Love conspiracy theories again. I mean, it was a shotgun, right? That’s kind of difficult to do. It can be done. It’s not impossible. It can be done. But I don’t know. I just… And now they have videos. Why are we doing this? I don’t know.
SPEAKER 10 :
I remember in the late 90s, I was doing rock radio at the time. And this was obviously one of the bigger stories on the alternative station I was working at. And I remember then thinking that this was kind of sus because… Him, you know, essentially ending his own life by the shotgun blast under the chin sort of thing. You don’t have dental records. You don’t have facial recognition. You got to rely on something like DNA or fingerprints to know if it was Kurt. And I never saw anything super definitive in that at that time. And we all just accepted that that’s what happened. Kurt Cobain committed suicide.
SPEAKER 02 :
Yeah, I mean, I’m just not, like, falling all over myself to find the OJ’s real killer. I’m just not there.
SPEAKER 10 :
And, yeah, the Courtney Love rumors were floating then, too.
SPEAKER 02 :
I just, out of all the things, why are those? But back to the sheriff, though. People need to just stop. Let the investigators do their job, and don’t begrudge the guy if he went to a basketball game for two hours. You know, they are allowed to go home. That is a job for them. even though the nature of it makes it a little bit more sensitive, it’s still a job for them. He is not on call 24-7. And especially when you are investigating a kidnapping like this, you’re looking at all of this. You have to be able to take a break from it. I feel like people don’t understand how important that is. You have to be able to walk away from that and take a break because it gets overwhelmingly heavy. And, you know, that kind of, you know, forensic investigators, you know, all of that. That’s a serious thing. And I just this is not these people are not helping. It’s sad.
