Crime a Lord hourly update, Breaking crime News Now.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm Dave Mack. An Ohio man fatally shot two children
and an adult before killing himself in an apparent murdered suicide.
At the scene, officers discover four victims suffering from gunshot
wounds and an adult female who was physically uninjured but
clearly in a state of shock, overwhelmed, and visibly traumatized.
Investigators determine the shooting occurs during an effort by the
(00:25):
mother of two children to remove belongings from the residence
following ongoing domestic issues in the home. According to authorities,
Dustin Willie, the father of the female seven year old son,
is at her place of residence to help her move
out of the home. Lisea Ryan Egan is the father
of the woman's seven month old baby. Police alleged Egan
chases Dustin and fires multiple shots at him. Egan then
(00:48):
shoots both children before directing additional gunfire at Dustin Willie,
then fatally shooting himself. The mother tells police she carries
her injured children inside the home before officers arrive, taking
a Tiffin Memorial Hospital, where he dies from his injuries.
Seven year old boy also dies at the hospital, and
the infant and Egan both pronounced dead at the scene.
(01:09):
The incident remains an active investigation by the Tiffan Police Department,
with assistant from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I'm Drew Nelson. He says he used it to save
himself from a mugger. Yet, a man in New York
is now facing four years in prison after pleading guilty
to possessing the unlicensed revolver he fired during a deadly
confrontation in Queens. That man is Charles Foner, a sixty
seven year old retired doorman from Q Gardens. He admitted
(01:37):
to one count of criminal weapons possession in a deal
that ends his case. More than two years after he
shot Cody Gonzalez, who charged him near his home late
at night.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Phoner was charged with serious violent felony as I think inappropriately.
You know, he had a decision for me.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
That's his attorney, Thomas Kinniff. Secuters did not bring homicide
charges because Foener told police he acted in self defense
when Gonzales launched at him holding what he thought was
a knife. It later turned out to be a pen.
Judge Tony Samino allowed him to remain free until his
January fourteenth sentencing. Detectives carried out a search of his
apartment and found more than two dozen firearms, including pistols,
(02:21):
hunting rifles, assault rifles including at Ak forty seven and
one hundred and fifty three loaded high capacity magazines. They
also found two body armor vests. Only five rifles were licensed.
The Queen's District Attorney's office brought a long list of
weapons charges tied to the collection. Surveillance footage from the
night of the shooting showed Gonzalez advancing down a driveway
(02:42):
even after Foner drew his revolver. Gonzalez had at least
fifteen prior arrests and a history of mental illness. After
the guilty plea, Canniff spoke on his behalf and argued
that strict New York gun laws create an impossible situation
for his client. He criticizes what he calls draconian restrictions
and says Poner accepted the deal to avoid the risk
(03:03):
of a decade's long sentence if he went to trial.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
I think that if this was a state, in a
city that had mayors in order, mister, mister the phone
would be getting a plaque not a prison sentence.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Phoner told investigators he carried the silver Revolver because he
wanted to prevent himself from being a victim. He said
he had owned it since the nineteen nineties and told
prosecutors quote, I pulled the gun out of my pocket.
It didn't go off accidentally. I emptied the revolver. More
Crime and Justice news after this. The musician praz from
(03:40):
the Fujis is going to prison for fourteen years after
a federal judge in Washington, DC sentences him for a
sweeping foreign influence scheme moving millions of dollars into US politics.
Praquasre Michel declined to speak in court before Judge Colleen
Caller Cotelli handed down the sentence. He was convicted in
April of twenty twenty three on ten criminal accounts, including conspiracy,
(04:04):
money laundering, illegal lobbying, witness tampering, funneling four and money
into Barack Obama's twenty twelve reelection campaign acting as an
unregistered agent of the government of Malaysia. He will serve
three years of probation after the prison term, set to
surrender in January. Prosecutors say Michelle quote betrayed his country
for money, and lied unapologetically and unrelentingly to carry out
(04:27):
his schemes. They argued that he accepted more than one
hundred million dollars from Malaysian billionaire Low Type Joe aka
Joe Low, then routed some of that money through straw
donors to reach the Obama campaign. Michelle later tried to
influence Trump administration officials to drop investigations into Low, and,
in a separate case, pushed for the expedition of a
(04:48):
Chinese dissident. Michelle's attorney, Peter Seidenberg, calls the Senate's quote
completely disproportionate to the offense and said they would appeal,
claiming his co defendants received lighter penalties because they did
not go to t Michel grew up in Brooklyn and
co founded the Fujis with Lauren Hill and Wycleff Jean,
selling tens of millions of records, including a massively popular
(05:09):
cover of Killing Me Softly. His trial included testimony from
Leonardo DiCaprio and former Attorney General Jeff's sessions. He sought
a new trial last year, alleging his previous lawyer used
AI to craft quote an ineffectual closing argument, but the
judge rejected his request. He was first charged in twenty
nineteen and was ordered last month to forfeit tens of
(05:31):
millions of dollars tied to the scheme. A runaway pig
in New Mexico is now hamming it up in a
new home after a wild interstate chase that had Albuquerque
police officers squealing for backup. The pig, first called Parrot,
later renamed Boris, got loose on November eleventh and trotted
straight onto the I forty off ramp near Louisiana. Officers
(05:52):
chased him down the ramp as he zigzagged toward traffic.
One officer was particularly excited to join the chase.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I have a last freaking job.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
They finally cornered him against a wall and lifted him
into a patrol SUV. Boris spent several days at Albuquerque's
West Side Animal Shelter, hoping that an owner would claim him.
Nobody ever did so. A South Valley couple, Jared and
Catherine Henchman, told Albuquerque Animal Welfare they saw him on
the news and they knew they had to have him.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
When we saw him running.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
We just saw his little spirit and how hard he
was working to survive, and we just knew that he
would fit right in with our pig.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
That's Katherine on k r QE. The shelter posted video
of the handoff as Boris rooted his way straight into
their hearts. He now lives on fenced land with new siblings,
including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, cows, a donkey, two EMUs,
and another pig named swine Nonah. Boris is settling in,
enjoying a good scratching, exploring the fall leaves, and proving
(07:03):

of I forty. His new parents promise he can live
