Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio Appy I am
six forty. It's Conway Show. We start with traffic. I
don't know if Angel Martinez is whe us or not.
Angel you there, Oh, I'm always here.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I love it, love traffic.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I go, hey, what's going on with the one thirty four.
Bellio came in and said the one thirty four is jammed?
And I said which way? And she said, going towards
Eagle Rock And I said from which direction?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Yeah, she didn't know from it. It's it's along the
eastbound side terrible just before Colorado. So it's right in
between the two and the two ten freeway.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
That places a mess anyway every day.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Crozier, good luck getting home, buddy.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, have sn crow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
And I heard the one thirty four is backed up
to Glendale.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It's back to to Burbank.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Oh my god, I know. It's awful.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Those eastbound de lays. We're stacking up all the way
from Riverside Drive.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Riverside Drive. That's that's before the Zoo, right around the zoo.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, it's right right around you guys right around. I
bet you can go out on the patio there.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I'm gonna go outside and take a look at This
is horrible, horrible.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
News, it really is.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And what is it all because of what happened? Let
me give you some kind of accident hit and run.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Oh yeah, it was a hidden No, it wasn't a
hit and run, but a bunch of cars. Okay, let's
see here.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Oh, I'm looking at it now. Okay, I'm looking at now.
This is horrible. This backs up all the way to
like Buena Vista almost you're right, yes, oh no, all right.
If you're eastbound, you are going to be pulling your
hair out from Buena Vista eastbound past the five, past Glendale,
(01:58):
past the Zoo, then past Glendow, past the two, and
it's all totally aft.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
That's the deep red too that it shows on the
map too. It starts right at the Traveltown railroad.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh no, and it looks like Angel and look, you're
the traffic person here, but it looks like the on
the transfer from the two North to the one thirty
four east is blocked or closed.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's what it looks like. The Highway Patrol hasn't said
that they've shut that down, but I was checking the
maps out as well, and it does look like that
transition is closed, but so by way of the map,
that connector could be shut down. And it also looks
like there was This originally was a four car crash,
(02:46):
one truck, three cars. For a little bit, they were
blocking all lanes, you know, until as the crash was
settling and they got before they got everything situated, but
then they were blocking the carpool and two left. Now,
with that many cars involved in a crash, it doesn't
mean that they won't stop all lanes as they clear
the scene, called the tow trucks out and such. So
(03:09):
with emergency crews out there, with the tow trucks arriving,
there's always that possibility that they will have to hold
all lanes for a few moments to let these other
emergency vehicles in. So that's adding to that terrible drive
out of Burbank currently.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And then don't try to sneak through on Zoo Drive.
You're gonna get hose there as well. You know what.
I can always tell how backed up the one thirty
four is, with how backed up Olive is and Alameda
and all those side streets and they're just jammed. All right,
thank you, Angel Martinez. Everybody ding dong with her.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
They got three hours to get that straight, and otherwise
I'm going to start making some noise.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Krozier, I'm with you, dude. I love the CHP. I'm
in love with the CHP. Actually, I get like like palpitations,
I get like butterflies in my stomach when I see
one of those cars.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
All So, you don't just love them, you're in life.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
They broke in my heart a lot of times. I'll
tell you them. But I will say this, whenever they
shut down freeways for an accent or anything, I think
they stay around a bit too long with the closures,
a little bit of a linger sometimes, yeah, And I
think that's sort of Look, we can do what we want, Buster,
and you have no choice.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
So when I had my accident in Pasadena a few
months ago, I shut you down.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I was right there.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I was in the fast lane, a little bit into
the carpool lane, and all I kept thinking about was
all those people behind me that were stuck, and I
just felt horrible. And I was doing everything. I was
helping all the other people and all the other cars
to get them out of the way. I was the
one the CHP officer asked me to go over to
the one car, Hey, could you move that car? So
that's great because I was so cognizant about not holding
(04:50):
up stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah, I'm with you, buddy, I'm with you. I never
want to be that guy that's holding everything up. I
got more information here on this Craft neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It is now being sohought after by local police here,
LAPD AT here c HB. The works out here is
they try and corner the suspect who is hiding in
a backyard along Waldo Place here in Eagle Rock at
figure out. We'll go back to the free.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Is connected to that belly owned this is connected to it.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
He oh sorry, he yeah, these guys have got into
a crash.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Bail that figureo.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Will go back to the freeway where most of the freeway,
as I mentioned, is shut down. Traffic is getting by
on the left lane and the backup is intense a
good three to five miles back on the eastbound side.
Forty Live Mare seven. I'm Chris Christy, ABC seven, which News.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
I don't know if you can stick with this shot
with Chris here man.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
I don't know if they can stick with this shot
just for a moment to show how far back this
backup is on the one thirty four.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
It looks like it's going four miles.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Now we are right overhead, but as we pan further
to the west, take a look at this shot. As
we look off into the distance, it is stopped. You
have that one lane getting by, but this look at
how farthest goes back to. That's the freeway interchained. She
goes back into Glendale. The on ramp from Highland Park
from the two on the left, there is just at
(06:06):
a complete standstill. This is going to be a problem
for hours into the rush hour commute here on a Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's the worst. I went to joy rand'side Twitter page
or ex page and he said he did looked into
it's one hundred percent Trump. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
It's Trump's fault though.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
You know that call and Colorado Boulevard, which runs parallel
to the one thirty four all through there, that's just
as dread.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
It's the worst.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
All right, you're gonna be with us for a while.
If you're on the one thirty four, we're gonna be
with you. We'll get you through this. We'll get you
through this. If you're on the one thirty four eastbound
coming out of the East Valley and you're going off
towards Montclair where Crozer lives, or Clairemont, Clairemont, we're gonna
You're gonna be with us for quite some time, quite
some time, and we'll hang with you. We'll come back
and tell you almost every segment. We'll give you updates.
(06:56):
So keep it on this channel six four zero am
six for zero. Is that what all they said? Sixty
six forty all right, I just looked at the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Well done, all.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Right, re live on KFI AM six forty. Welcome back,
Alan Hamilton. I think he's stuck in traffic. He's the
chief of all detectives. He dominates all the detectives at LAPD,
and he'll come in and talk about this horrible, horrible
story that we learned about yesterday with Oscar Ramirez. Oscar
Omar Ramirez, I'm sorry Hernana, sorry about Hernandez. I was
(07:30):
killed by his soccer coach. I can't believe that.
Speaker 7 (07:33):
Man.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That's so sad.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
We are looking at the one thirty four right now.
The one thirty four east bound backed up because of
police activity in the air at Eagle Rock area. So
we're going to keep you up updated all day long
and here to speak not only made perhaps on this issue,
but also this horrible story that we had with Oscar Hernandez.
(08:04):
Just a really difficult weak crime wise in Los Angeles,
and the chief of all detectives is with us, Alan Hamilton.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
How you doing good? Excellent?
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Now, I've known you a long time. You started back
in nineteen ninety. Yes, with LAPD they have call boxes.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Back then, they did have callbackses. I still have my game. Well, key,
you can open any of those boxes. I sure can.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
And the rumor was that in some of those boxes
there used to be a bottle of gin or vodka?
Is that true?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You know, I've heard that urban legend too. I never
saw a bottle of gin or vodka, but I certainly
saw pencil and paper in there.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That's that's back Also when you could smoke if you're
a cop.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Uh yeah, that was around the same time, but we
ended that right around that same period.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Guys are so strict. All right, what's going on with
the one thirty four here is backed up? I guess
football is that your division? I mean, is that LAPD?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It is going to be northeast area and hopefully everyone's
going to stay safe out there. You know, I know
there's going to be a traffic impact. So for the
people on the one thirty four, you know, HP maybe
putting out an advisory or sing alert. I would just
ask the people, use caution, don't pick anyone up. Let
law enforcement do what they're going to do in the area.
The LAPD is going to take care of the issue
that's going on on the streets off of the freeway,
(09:20):
and they'll be assisting the HP with getting the suspects,
all of the suspects in the custody here, hopefully soon.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I've been around living in the valley since the you know,
sixties or so, and I can't remember a time where
the chief is put together an all star list of
assistant chiefs. I think he's got a really good crew here.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah, I mean, I think Jim's done a great job.
The Chief's been a good you know, putting things together
and putting his pieces in place. I think we're still
going to be doing some some more moves. I'm not
a part of that, you know, decision making process, but
I think he's come in and hit the ground running
and done a lot of great things for the department.
We're going to keep on following him to us success
keeping this community safe.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
I talked to somebody last week after Oscar Hernandez they
found this thirteen year old boy, and somebody from LAPD said,
this is going to be a bigger story than the
news is telling you right now. They didn't have all
the details, and sure enough it is. It's a horrible story.
It's a thirteen year old, by the way, I think
a twelve year old who just turned thirteen.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
He had only turned thirteen recently, very young.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And he's taken a train from Sunland or Silmar area
all the way to Annelo Valley by himself to hang
out with his soccer coach.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, I mean, you know, I think I covered it
pretty good at the scene. When we were out there
in Ventia County. We always, as a department cautioned members
of the community to make sure who their their children,
their siblings. You know who they're with, what they're doing,
know who this person is you know, we always hope
(10:57):
that people are going to be vetted when they're involved
and these types of activities, but it's ultimately the responsibility
of the parents to make sure that they know who
they're dealing with, what the motives of these individuals may be,
and whether they've been vetted through some kind of system
so that they know who they're dealing with.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Now, does La you're the chief of detectives without getting
in a great detail, because I'm sure it's it's very sad,
it's very and it also might be information that you know,
we're not privy to as the public, But do you
know where this young man was killed?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
So there's going to be the information that I can disclose.
That's going to be one of the things that I
can disclose. And I think Deputy sorry D. A. Hackman
put it very succinctly and directly. All of these things
are going to be discussed in court. That's going to
be the proper venue for that. So we're not going
to talk about a lot of the things that have
to do with the investigation specifically. I think the family
(11:53):
has been very open with the public about their grief
and everything that's happening with the family, and again my
heartfelt condolences go out to.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It's the worst.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I don't know how.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Look, I don't know how. People get up in the
morning and you know, you probably those parents probably wake
up in the morning and they think, oh, I've got
to get my you know, I gotta get you know,
pay my taxes, I gotta do this, and then it
hits them again that their son is not coming home,
and it's got to just floor them.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
You know.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
It's so hard. Because we spent time yesterday with the family.
We had some discussions with them at the police headquarters.
Then we walked over to the District Attorney's office over
the Hall of Justice. They had a very heartfelt welcome
by both the sheriff and by Di A. Hawkman.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I thought the sheriff was was great in that press conference.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
You know, our partners over in the Sheriff's department did
a phenomenal job helping us out on this case. Tim
kudos to both them and the DA's office in very
very trying circumstances. Craig Comediest people have been out outstanding.
I mean they have been isamite and working side by
side with us on all of these cases and they
they've they've pledged their assistance in anything going forward, any
(13:09):
future investigations, any other needs that we may have from them.
And they've been phenomenal partners as has you know, Luna's
guys and Gallous over the Sheriff's Department. As soon as
we got them on the team, they've been absolutely outstanding
and helping us work on these investigations.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Okay, can you stay by this absolutely? Okay. I used
to address you as Detective Alan Hamilton. How has that changed?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It hasn't. I'm going to be a detective till my
last day on the job. But I'm the deputy chief.
I'm the Chief of Detectives, Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton. Yeah,
and I we're responsible for everything. After the officers get
tired chasing somebody on foot, then we take over.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
You take over. Okay, all right, we're live. We're keep
an eye on the one thirty four freeway. It's backed
up eastbound from Eagle Rock all the way practically to
the one seventy freeway. It's a mess, a mess out there,
and we're gonna cover it and give you all the details.
It's Conway Show. We're live on CAMFI Am six forty.
We'll come back and talk more about this poor young man,
(14:09):
Oscar Hernandez. Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton's with us.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
We have Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton with us. And before
we get back to the Oscar Hernandez story, the story
that rocked Los Angeles over the last week, we have
a person detained following a freeway hit and run and
that traffic is backed up looks like forever on the
one thirty four East. And we have some new fresh
(14:41):
audio that I'd like you to listen to and see
what your opinion is. Here looks like or it sounds
like they went into the neighborhood to go after these
guys and there was a shooting, and let's find out
who shot who and what's going on.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Biks, I've gotten a little complicated here. They have been
searching for the suspect who fled the scene of that crash.
On the e outside of the one thirty four, we
watched this suspect who is now being detained, going through
somebody's backyard, watering the plants, walking around the pool on
his cell phone. At one point playing with the chlorine.
He eventually came out through the front of the property
and has now surrendered to the California Highway Patrol. However,
(15:18):
during the course of this search right off of the
one thirty four freeway, police and CHP Police or CHP,
there is both LAPD and California Highway Patrol out here
open fire on a separate person in this neighborhood who
apparently posed a threat. There is now a search going
on for a second suspect, unrelated to the crash on
(15:39):
the one thirty four, who apparently has threatened officers. They
were forced to open fire at one point, and now
they are searching this neighborhood for that person.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Okay, it's unbelievable. It seems like people are more desperate nowadays,
and so now they're in the neighborhood. And I like
the casual guy, I chief, Deputy Chief, I like the
you know when you go looking for a guy he
throws his jacket off, he grabs a hose just watering
the lawn. Hey, officers, how you do it? Nice to
say it? Yeah, And he and they think that that
(16:10):
you guys are just not gonna not gonna see right
through that.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Yeah, that usually doesn't work. I've certainly in my short
thirty five year career, had a number of those types
of encounters where someone will either try to act like
they're working on a car, act like they're working in
the yard, act like they live at a residence, act
like they're delivering things. We're usually a little bit smart.
That's right, it's a little bit all right. Let's uh.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
So the one thirty four is backed up because there
was an officer involved shooting, how many layers of people
now get involved with that officer's life.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yeah, I don't so. Based on the news accounts, I'm
not I'm not sure if there was actually an officer
of ball shooting, but if there was, there will be
a response by our well. First, a field supervisor will
respond and isolate the officers that were involved if there
has been an officer of ball shooting, and make sure
that that communications kind of cut off. Following that, you're
going to have our folks from the Force Investigation Division
(17:04):
response to investigate along with that's internal. That's internal, along
with the Inspector General's office and the district attorney if
someone was struck. You'll also have a lot of support
personnel are Frinchic scientists will come out, our technical investigation
will come out. We'll look to obtain both a biding
(17:25):
worn and digital in car video and then we'll conduct
an investigation in the area to see if there's any
other video available from like cars, other other types of
savannahs cameras, and then we'll you know, when does the.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
State get involved if it's unarmed?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, so the state would get involved if if the
individual that was involved in the office involved shooting as
completely unarmed. So if they're how often does that happen?
It's very rare here in the state of California. Does occur.
There are a few incidents a year here in the
state of California, right, but it does, it does occur,
and we'll we'll definitely, you know, run that through a
(18:01):
number of different review processes. It will go through a
useful force review board on our department months down the
road after all the facts are gathered, and it will
also be reviewed by the district attorney as to the
legality at the actions by the officers.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
But I read last year and I think that twenty
twenty three is the last year they have the numbers
on it. There were thirty incidents nationwide that an officer
is involved in a shooting with a suspect that was unarmed.
And when they say unarmed, as we were talking about
during the break, he could have grabbed the officer's weapon
(18:35):
and he's still considered unarmed.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Correct, So initially, someone can approach an officer unarmed, and
then they can either obtain a weapon from other methods.
Let's say there's a pole sitting nearby or something like that,
or you may have an incident where someone actually assaults
an officer and they they obtained the officer's weapon or
a piece of the officer's equipment and assaults the officer
with that piece of equipment. So initially they were an
(19:00):
armed and it would potentially be reported as an unarmed suspect.
And then you get down to the brass tax then
you find out where they were unarmed until they took
the officer's baton, until they took the officer's taser.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
And thirty incidents in the three hundred and thirty five
million people that live in this country, that's correct. Nearly zero,
I mean statistically zero, Yeah, so.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Statistically it's a small number. We still so let's just
say that an incident like that occurs on the laped,
we're still going to get to the facts of the case.
And if the incident was handled according to training and
policy in the law, then we're going to move forward
with training that individual if it's necessary, and sometimes there
isn't going to be additional training. If there's discipline that's
(19:44):
called for, then we're going to move forward on the discipline.
If it's a criminal act, we're going to move forward
on prosecution. I mean, that's the way we approach each
and every one of these And all of these happened
kind of in a vacuum. They happen on their own,
and they all stand on their own, and it's based
on the gram st and as we call it in
police work, it's based on the facts not to the
officer at the time, and it's based on what an
(20:05):
officer with similar training and experience would do if they
were in that specific situation.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
All right, can you say one more segment because I
want to talk about recruiting. I know that you're looking
for a few good men.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
We're looking for a few good men and women and
women are involved now, they absolutely are. I believe they're
taking over and we are going to be having a
big recruitment seminar this Saturday, so I love to talk
about it.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Okay, this Saturday, we'll talk about it. We'll come back.
We'll also finish up with the one thirty four. What's
going on there and anymore on Oscar Hernandez's poor thirteen
year old boy who's not coming home, And it looks
like there might be the hawkman's first at least review
of the death penalty when it comes to this case.
And thank God that he's in there. And I hope
(20:50):
this man never sees another free second in his life
to take a young man's life like that at thirteen,
twelve year old who just turned thirteen. All right, on
KFI AM six forty, Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton is with us.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Deputy Detective Alan Hamilton is with us. We're talking about
Oscar Hernandez. That's a very sad story here, this thirteen
year old boy that was killed allegedly, and it looks
like the death penalty might it might be the first
death penalty case for the new DA in Los Angeles.
(21:32):
How does that happen. What triggers that? Is it the
information that he gets from you and the Sheriff's department
or I'm want to say you I'm missing LAPD.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah. So it's based on the facts and evidence that
comes from the case. The Los Angeles County DA is
going to review it on a panel basis, So they're
going to get their team together to review whether they're
going to move forward with the death penalty. This is,
I believe the first time that DA Hockman is going
(22:02):
to be moving forward on one of these cases. This is,
unfortunately one of those typically heinous cases where it's eligible
for the death penalty on both the local level and
the federal level.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, Well, it'll be reviewed in that vein, and I'm
sure the district attorney will give due deliberation to the
facts in this case and they'll make a determination based
on the totality of the circumstances. So there are going
to be some things that are known only to the
DA's office and to the investigation that the public may
(22:35):
not find out about until trial. But they're going to
take all of that information. They're going to assemble their
panel and there will review the actual facts and evidence
in this case and make a determination on whether this
is going to be one of those cases where that
ultimate punishment is appropriate for the facts of this case.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
So this guy a queeno or quino, he's forty three
years old. He may never see another free moment in
his life.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
So so there's a possibility that that that may occur.
Mister Garcia Akino is looking at numerous charges. As the
District Attorney's office put out today, it was amended again
with the inclusion of a twenty twenty two LAPD case.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Oh, that's right. There was a case three years ago,
and whatever happened in that case, it was not it
was I don't know if it was tossed out, but
I heard that the that the victim was not able
or willing to testify.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Yeah, So, as often happens with some of these investigations
into child sexual assault, sometimes the victims are not necessarily
ready to move forward. One of the things with this
particular case, I know there was some discussion yesterday about
the length of time it took for the other case
to go through the DiscT attorney's review process, you know,
(23:58):
and I want to inform the public. Unfortunately, some of
these cases take a long time to work through. We
have to do a lot of scientific analysis. There are
often other investigative steps that are not apparent to the
public that we have to take before we move forward
and putting those charges on someone. And we want to
be fair. We want to make sure that we have
(24:20):
a good set of facts before we move forward on
these types of investigations.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Right, But why wouldn't if this guy was investigated three
years ago for sexual abuse on a child, why wouldn't
that instantly disallow him to ever be around kids orly
and coach kids. Again, I don't understand how that didn't
trigger a, you know, a warning. I don't know if
(24:44):
it's you know, a sexual predators list or whatever. But
that kid, this kid, Oscar Hernandez, could have been alive
today if his parents knew that well.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
So, I don't want to speak for any other organizations
outside of the police department. You quite often see individuals
that represent themselves as a coach that is attached to
a certain school organization, a government agency. We hear about
all of these things where they betray the confidence of
(25:16):
parents and children. To the parents and children, I need
everyone to listen to me. Very carefully for a second. Here,
you need to know if someone is actually an actual
coach for an organization, what their affiliations are, what their jobs,
roles and responsibilities are, and if they're truly connected. So,
for instance, you go to a park, you see a
(25:39):
bunch of different teams practicing. Someone represents themselves as a coach.
As a parent, you need to make sure that that
individual is directly affiliated with an organization.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Right are you saying that this guy wasn't?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I am just cautioning people that they need to make
sure that when they are meeting someone that represents themselves
as a quote coach.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So this could have been a guy just hanging out
of the park saying he as a coach.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
So we have a lot of coaches of teams of
organizations that present themselves as vetted coaches and they'll identify
themselves as being involved with an organization.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
And they're not, and they're not. Oh my god, all
these parents must be just beside themselves. Let's talk about
how we can get more good guys and good gals
on the streets of the city of Los Angeles. I
know this Saturday, you have a huge open house welcoming
new potential employees to lapd.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
SO On Saturday morning at seven am at our Westchester Academy,
the Amason Recruit Training Center, we are going to have
a hiring seminar and hiring testing and physical fitness assessment.
It starts at seven o'clock in the morning for check in.
Eight o'clock will be given the written test, and at
eleven o'clock will be going out to the field and
doing a physical fitness assessment so everyone knows where they are.
(27:00):
I'm a dinosaur. I've got thirty five years in this game,
and I will not be around forever. So what I
would love to see is the next generation that's going
to be helping us in investigations very much like this
tim that are going to learn how to be good
street cops. They're going to be learning, you know, the
best detective skills in the world, with the best agency
in the world. They're going to be with the finest
(27:20):
people in law enforcement, taking that first step coming to
be the next generation of the Los Ange Police Department.
I can't think of a more important job right now
in this department than to bring the next generation on
and get them prepared for all the things that are becoming.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
To Los Angeles in the future. I think you're right.
We've got the World Cup coming in, We've got the
Olympics coming in, and we're trying to rebuild this city.
I mean, there are three major events going on here
for the next five years.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And all the Dodgers parades that we're gonna be h.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
That's right, that's exactly right.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So we've got to be prepared, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
So seven am. Why do you guys have to do
that so early? You know, it seems early.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
We get people used to getting up early, very early
on tim seven am. Westchester Academy. Where is that in Westchester?
Is that near the airport it is? It's going to
be right there near Manchester in Aviation. Yeah, right, literally
right there, just outside of the city of Englewood. And
we're going to be providing information regarding what the career
(28:17):
looks like, what the possibilities are for the future, good
great pay and great benefits.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Same tests for men and women, absolutely, same tests.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
And the best thing about this is you're going to
have information directly from our Recruitment and Employment division. Shout
out to our new captain Lisa Vocaba. She's going to
be there and we're going to be talking about what
opportunities exist in the Los Ange Police Department. All right.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
And I have a buddy who's retired LAPD, and he
said he can't remember a single one of these festivities
or these you know, Westchester Academy or LAPD Academy when
they bring in the new crowd, he said, He said,
he it's shocking in almost every time a guy who
(29:01):
signs up to be LAPD has warrants out for himself.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Oh no, we do. We do the best background in
the Trust me when I tell you, we do a
very very thorough background, and we screen very carefully. We
hire five out of one hundred. If we're lucky, only
four out of one hundred get it to the street.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Wow, buddy, I hope you come back often. And how
many years left before you retire.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I'll be around for a few more years. I'm not
going anywhere. Three I've got at least three going right,
three years?
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Okay, Oh yeah, please come back. Let's make it a regular.
I love talking to you. You're one of the great
cops in the world and we appreciate you taking time
for us.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Man.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Thank you for your support. You are the best. Sorry
we'll come back. We'll update you on the one thirty
four freeway. Looks like one lane eastbound open right now,
and the guy in the back with the shorts on
on his cell phone is the suspect. So it's crazy
out and Eagle Rock will come back and tell you
what's going on out there. We're live on KFI AM
six forty Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
(30:01):
Now you can always hear us live on KFI AM
six forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and
anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio Appy I am
six forty. It's Conway Show. We start with traffic. I
don't know if Angel Martinez is whe us or not.
Angel you there, Oh, I'm always here.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I love it, love traffic.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I go, hey, what's going on with the one thirty four.
Bellio came in and said the one thirty four is jammed?
And I said which way? And she said, going towards
Eagle Rock And I said from which direction?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Yeah, she didn't know from it. It's it's along the
eastbound side terrible just before Colorado. So it's right in
between the two and the two ten freeway.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
That places a mess anyway every day.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Crozier, good luck getting home, buddy.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, have sn crow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
And I heard the one thirty four is backed up
to Glendale.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It's back to to Burbank.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Oh my god, I know. It's awful.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Those eastbound de lays. We're stacking up all the way
from Riverside Drive.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Riverside Drive. That's that's before the Zoo, right around the zoo.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, it's right right around you guys right around. I
bet you can go out on the patio there.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I'm gonna go outside and take a look at This
is horrible, horrible.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
News, it really is.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And what is it all because of what happened? Let
me give you some kind of accident hit and run.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Oh yeah, it was a hidden No, it wasn't a
hit and run, but a bunch of cars. Okay, let's
see here.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Oh, I'm looking at it now. Okay, I'm looking at now.
This is horrible. This backs up all the way to
like Buena Vista almost you're right, yes, oh no, all right.
If you're eastbound, you are going to be pulling your
hair out from Buena Vista eastbound past the five, past Glendale,
(01:58):
past the Zoo, then past Glendow, past the two, and
it's all totally aft.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
That's the deep red too that it shows on the
map too. It starts right at the Traveltown railroad.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh no, and it looks like Angel and look, you're
the traffic person here, but it looks like the on
the transfer from the two North to the one thirty
four east is blocked or closed.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's what it looks like. The Highway Patrol hasn't said
that they've shut that down, but I was checking the
maps out as well, and it does look like that
transition is closed, but so by way of the map,
that connector could be shut down. And it also looks
like there was This originally was a four car crash,
(02:46):
one truck, three cars. For a little bit, they were
blocking all lanes, you know, until as the crash was
settling and they got before they got everything situated, but
then they were blocking the carpool and two left. Now,
with that many cars involved in a crash, it doesn't
mean that they won't stop all lanes as they clear
the scene, called the tow trucks out and such. So
(03:09):
with emergency crews out there, with the tow trucks arriving,
there's always that possibility that they will have to hold
all lanes for a few moments to let these other
emergency vehicles in. So that's adding to that terrible drive
out of Burbank currently.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And then don't try to sneak through on Zoo Drive.
You're gonna get hose there as well. You know what.
I can always tell how backed up the one thirty
four is, with how backed up Olive is and Alameda
and all those side streets and they're just jammed. All right,
thank you, Angel Martinez. Everybody ding dong with her.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
They got three hours to get that straight, and otherwise
I'm going to start making some noise.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Krozier, I'm with you, dude. I love the CHP. I'm
in love with the CHP. Actually, I get like like palpitations,
I get like butterflies in my stomach when I see
one of those cars.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
All So, you don't just love them, you're in life.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
They broke in my heart a lot of times. I'll
tell you them. But I will say this, whenever they
shut down freeways for an accent or anything, I think
they stay around a bit too long with the closures,
a little bit of a linger sometimes, yeah, And I
think that's sort of Look, we can do what we want, Buster,
and you have no choice.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
So when I had my accident in Pasadena a few
months ago, I shut you down.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I was right there.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I was in the fast lane, a little bit into
the carpool lane, and all I kept thinking about was
all those people behind me that were stuck, and I
just felt horrible. And I was doing everything. I was
helping all the other people and all the other cars
to get them out of the way. I was the
one the CHP officer asked me to go over to
the one car, Hey, could you move that car? So
that's great because I was so cognizant about not holding
(04:50):
up stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah, I'm with you, buddy, I'm with you. I never
want to be that guy that's holding everything up. I
got more information here on this Craft neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It is now being sohought after by local police here,
LAPD AT here c HB. The works out here is
they try and corner the suspect who is hiding in
a backyard along Waldo Place here in Eagle Rock at
figure out. We'll go back to the free.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Is connected to that belly owned this is connected to it.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
He oh sorry, he yeah, these guys have got into
a crash.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Bail that figureo.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Will go back to the freeway where most of the freeway,
as I mentioned, is shut down. Traffic is getting by
on the left lane and the backup is intense a
good three to five miles back on the eastbound side.
Forty Live Mare seven. I'm Chris Christy, ABC seven, which News.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
I don't know if you can stick with this shot
with Chris here man.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
I don't know if they can stick with this shot
just for a moment to show how far back this
backup is on the one thirty four.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
It looks like it's going four miles.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Now we are right overhead, but as we pan further
to the west, take a look at this shot. As
we look off into the distance, it is stopped. You
have that one lane getting by, but this look at
how farthest goes back to. That's the freeway interchained. She
goes back into Glendale. The on ramp from Highland Park
from the two on the left, there is just at
(06:06):
a complete standstill. This is going to be a problem
for hours into the rush hour commute here on a Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's the worst. I went to joy rand'side Twitter page
or ex page and he said he did looked into
it's one hundred percent Trump. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
It's Trump's fault though.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
You know that call and Colorado Boulevard, which runs parallel
to the one thirty four all through there, that's just
as dread.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
It's the worst.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
All right, you're gonna be with us for a while.
If you're on the one thirty four, we're gonna be
with you. We'll get you through this. We'll get you
through this. If you're on the one thirty four eastbound
coming out of the East Valley and you're going off
towards Montclair where Crozer lives, or Clairemont, Clairemont, we're gonna
You're gonna be with us for quite some time, quite
some time, and we'll hang with you. We'll come back
and tell you almost every segment. We'll give you updates.
(06:56):
So keep it on this channel six four zero am
six for zero. Is that what all they said? Sixty
six forty all right, I just looked at the wall.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Well done, all.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Right, re live on KFI AM six forty. Welcome back,
Alan Hamilton. I think he's stuck in traffic. He's the
chief of all detectives. He dominates all the detectives at LAPD,
and he'll come in and talk about this horrible, horrible
story that we learned about yesterday with Oscar Ramirez. Oscar
Omar Ramirez, I'm sorry Hernana, sorry about Hernandez. I was
(07:30):
killed by his soccer coach. I can't believe that.
Speaker 7 (07:33):
Man.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That's so sad.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
We are looking at the one thirty four right now.
The one thirty four east bound backed up because of
police activity in the air at Eagle Rock area. So
we're going to keep you up updated all day long
and here to speak not only made perhaps on this issue,
but also this horrible story that we had with Oscar Hernandez.
(08:04):
Just a really difficult weak crime wise in Los Angeles,
and the chief of all detectives is with us, Alan Hamilton.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
How you doing good? Excellent?
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Now, I've known you a long time. You started back
in nineteen ninety. Yes, with LAPD they have call boxes.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Back then, they did have callbackses. I still have my game. Well, key,
you can open any of those boxes. I sure can.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
And the rumor was that in some of those boxes
there used to be a bottle of gin or vodka?
Is that true?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You know, I've heard that urban legend too. I never
saw a bottle of gin or vodka, but I certainly
saw pencil and paper in there.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That's that's back Also when you could smoke if you're
a cop.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Uh yeah, that was around the same time, but we
ended that right around that same period.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Guys are so strict. All right, what's going on with
the one thirty four here is backed up? I guess
football is that your division? I mean, is that LAPD?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It is going to be northeast area and hopefully everyone's
going to stay safe out there. You know, I know
there's going to be a traffic impact. So for the
people on the one thirty four, you know, HP maybe
putting out an advisory or sing alert. I would just
ask the people, use caution, don't pick anyone up. Let
law enforcement do what they're going to do in the area.
The LAPD is going to take care of the issue
that's going on on the streets off of the freeway,
(09:20):
and they'll be assisting the HP with getting the suspects,
all of the suspects in the custody here, hopefully soon.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I've been around living in the valley since the you know,
sixties or so, and I can't remember a time where
the chief is put together an all star list of
assistant chiefs. I think he's got a really good crew here.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah, I mean, I think Jim's done a great job.
The Chief's been a good you know, putting things together
and putting his pieces in place. I think we're still
going to be doing some some more moves. I'm not
a part of that, you know, decision making process, but
I think he's come in and hit the ground running
and done a lot of great things for the department.
We're going to keep on following him to us success
keeping this community safe.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
I talked to somebody last week after Oscar Hernandez they
found this thirteen year old boy, and somebody from LAPD said,
this is going to be a bigger story than the
news is telling you right now. They didn't have all
the details, and sure enough it is. It's a horrible story.
It's a thirteen year old, by the way, I think
a twelve year old who just turned thirteen.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
He had only turned thirteen recently, very young.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And he's taken a train from Sunland or Silmar area
all the way to Annelo Valley by himself to hang
out with his soccer coach.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, I mean, you know, I think I covered it
pretty good at the scene. When we were out there
in Ventia County. We always, as a department cautioned members
of the community to make sure who their their children,
their siblings. You know who they're with, what they're doing,
know who this person is you know, we always hope
(10:57):
that people are going to be vetted when they're involved
and these types of activities, but it's ultimately the responsibility
of the parents to make sure that they know who
they're dealing with, what the motives of these individuals may be,
and whether they've been vetted through some kind of system
so that they know who they're dealing with.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Now, does La you're the chief of detectives without getting
in a great detail, because I'm sure it's it's very sad,
it's very and it also might be information that you know,
we're not privy to as the public, But do you
know where this young man was killed?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
So there's going to be the information that I can disclose.
That's going to be one of the things that I
can disclose. And I think Deputy sorry D. A. Hackman
put it very succinctly and directly. All of these things
are going to be discussed in court. That's going to
be the proper venue for that. So we're not going
to talk about a lot of the things that have
to do with the investigation specifically. I think the family
(11:53):
has been very open with the public about their grief
and everything that's happening with the family, and again my
heartfelt condolences go out to.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It's the worst.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I don't know how.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Look, I don't know how. People get up in the
morning and you know, you probably those parents probably wake
up in the morning and they think, oh, I've got
to get my you know, I gotta get you know,
pay my taxes, I gotta do this, and then it
hits them again that their son is not coming home,
and it's got to just floor them.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
You know.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
It's so hard. Because we spent time yesterday with the family.
We had some discussions with them at the police headquarters.
Then we walked over to the District Attorney's office over
the Hall of Justice. They had a very heartfelt welcome
by both the sheriff and by Di A. Hawkman.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I thought the sheriff was was great in that press conference.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
You know, our partners over in the Sheriff's department did
a phenomenal job helping us out on this case. Tim
kudos to both them and the DA's office in very
very trying circumstances. Craig Comediest people have been out outstanding.
I mean they have been isamite and working side by
side with us on all of these cases and they
they've they've pledged their assistance in anything going forward, any
(13:09):
future investigations, any other needs that we may have from them.
And they've been phenomenal partners as has you know, Luna's
guys and Gallous over the Sheriff's Department. As soon as
we got them on the team, they've been absolutely outstanding
and helping us work on these investigations.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Okay, can you stay by this absolutely? Okay. I used
to address you as Detective Alan Hamilton. How has that changed?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It hasn't. I'm going to be a detective till my
last day on the job. But I'm the deputy chief.
I'm the Chief of Detectives, Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton. Yeah,
and I we're responsible for everything. After the officers get
tired chasing somebody on foot, then we take over.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
You take over. Okay, all right, we're live. We're keep
an eye on the one thirty four freeway. It's backed
up eastbound from Eagle Rock all the way practically to
the one seventy freeway. It's a mess, a mess out there,
and we're gonna cover it and give you all the details.
It's Conway Show. We're live on CAMFI Am six forty.
We'll come back and talk more about this poor young man,
(14:09):
Oscar Hernandez. Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton's with us.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
We have Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton with us. And before
we get back to the Oscar Hernandez story, the story
that rocked Los Angeles over the last week, we have
a person detained following a freeway hit and run and
that traffic is backed up looks like forever on the
one thirty four East. And we have some new fresh
(14:41):
audio that I'd like you to listen to and see
what your opinion is. Here looks like or it sounds
like they went into the neighborhood to go after these
guys and there was a shooting, and let's find out
who shot who and what's going on.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Biks, I've gotten a little complicated here. They have been
searching for the suspect who fled the scene of that crash.
On the e outside of the one thirty four, we
watched this suspect who is now being detained, going through
somebody's backyard, watering the plants, walking around the pool on
his cell phone. At one point playing with the chlorine.
He eventually came out through the front of the property
and has now surrendered to the California Highway Patrol. However,
(15:18):
during the course of this search right off of the
one thirty four freeway, police and CHP Police or CHP,
there is both LAPD and California Highway Patrol out here
open fire on a separate person in this neighborhood who
apparently posed a threat. There is now a search going
on for a second suspect, unrelated to the crash on
(15:39):
the one thirty four, who apparently has threatened officers. They
were forced to open fire at one point, and now
they are searching this neighborhood for that person.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Okay, it's unbelievable. It seems like people are more desperate nowadays,
and so now they're in the neighborhood. And I like
the casual guy, I chief, Deputy Chief, I like the
you know when you go looking for a guy he
throws his jacket off, he grabs a hose just watering
the lawn. Hey, officers, how you do it? Nice to
say it? Yeah, And he and they think that that
(16:10):
you guys are just not gonna not gonna see right
through that.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Yeah, that usually doesn't work. I've certainly in my short
thirty five year career, had a number of those types
of encounters where someone will either try to act like
they're working on a car, act like they're working in
the yard, act like they live at a residence, act
like they're delivering things. We're usually a little bit smart.
That's right, it's a little bit all right. Let's uh.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
So the one thirty four is backed up because there
was an officer involved shooting, how many layers of people
now get involved with that officer's life.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yeah, I don't so. Based on the news accounts, I'm
not I'm not sure if there was actually an officer
of ball shooting, but if there was, there will be
a response by our well. First, a field supervisor will
respond and isolate the officers that were involved if there
has been an officer of ball shooting, and make sure
that that communications kind of cut off. Following that, you're
going to have our folks from the Force Investigation Division
(17:04):
response to investigate along with that's internal. That's internal, along
with the Inspector General's office and the district attorney if
someone was struck. You'll also have a lot of support
personnel are Frinchic scientists will come out, our technical investigation
will come out. We'll look to obtain both a biding
(17:25):
worn and digital in car video and then we'll conduct
an investigation in the area to see if there's any
other video available from like cars, other other types of
savannahs cameras, and then we'll you know, when does the.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
State get involved if it's unarmed?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, so the state would get involved if if the
individual that was involved in the office involved shooting as
completely unarmed. So if they're how often does that happen?
It's very rare here in the state of California. Does occur.
There are a few incidents a year here in the
state of California, right, but it does, it does occur,
and we'll we'll definitely, you know, run that through a
(18:01):
number of different review processes. It will go through a
useful force review board on our department months down the
road after all the facts are gathered, and it will
also be reviewed by the district attorney as to the
legality at the actions by the officers.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
But I read last year and I think that twenty
twenty three is the last year they have the numbers
on it. There were thirty incidents nationwide that an officer
is involved in a shooting with a suspect that was unarmed.
And when they say unarmed, as we were talking about
during the break, he could have grabbed the officer's weapon
(18:35):
and he's still considered unarmed.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Correct, So initially, someone can approach an officer unarmed, and
then they can either obtain a weapon from other methods.
Let's say there's a pole sitting nearby or something like that,
or you may have an incident where someone actually assaults
an officer and they they obtained the officer's weapon or
a piece of the officer's equipment and assaults the officer
with that piece of equipment. So initially they were an
(19:00):
armed and it would potentially be reported as an unarmed suspect.
And then you get down to the brass tax then
you find out where they were unarmed until they took
the officer's baton, until they took the officer's taser.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
And thirty incidents in the three hundred and thirty five
million people that live in this country, that's correct. Nearly zero,
I mean statistically zero, Yeah, so.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Statistically it's a small number. We still so let's just
say that an incident like that occurs on the laped,
we're still going to get to the facts of the case.
And if the incident was handled according to training and
policy in the law, then we're going to move forward
with training that individual if it's necessary, and sometimes there
isn't going to be additional training. If there's discipline that's
(19:44):
called for, then we're going to move forward on the discipline.
If it's a criminal act, we're going to move forward
on prosecution. I mean, that's the way we approach each
and every one of these And all of these happened
kind of in a vacuum. They happen on their own,
and they all stand on their own, and it's based
on the gram st and as we call it in
police work, it's based on the facts not to the
officer at the time, and it's based on what an
(20:05):
officer with similar training and experience would do if they
were in that specific situation.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
All right, can you say one more segment because I
want to talk about recruiting. I know that you're looking
for a few good men.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
We're looking for a few good men and women and
women are involved now, they absolutely are. I believe they're
taking over and we are going to be having a
big recruitment seminar this Saturday, so I love to talk
about it.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Okay, this Saturday, we'll talk about it. We'll come back.
We'll also finish up with the one thirty four. What's
going on there and anymore on Oscar Hernandez's poor thirteen
year old boy who's not coming home, And it looks
like there might be the hawkman's first at least review
of the death penalty when it comes to this case.
And thank God that he's in there. And I hope
(20:50):
this man never sees another free second in his life
to take a young man's life like that at thirteen,
twelve year old who just turned thirteen. All right, on
KFI AM six forty, Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton is with us.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Deputy Detective Alan Hamilton is with us. We're talking about
Oscar Hernandez. That's a very sad story here, this thirteen
year old boy that was killed allegedly, and it looks
like the death penalty might it might be the first
death penalty case for the new DA in Los Angeles.
(21:32):
How does that happen. What triggers that? Is it the
information that he gets from you and the Sheriff's department
or I'm want to say you I'm missing LAPD.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah. So it's based on the facts and evidence that
comes from the case. The Los Angeles County DA is
going to review it on a panel basis, So they're
going to get their team together to review whether they're
going to move forward with the death penalty. This is,
I believe the first time that DA Hockman is going
(22:02):
to be moving forward on one of these cases. This is,
unfortunately one of those typically heinous cases where it's eligible
for the death penalty on both the local level and
the federal level.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, Well, it'll be reviewed in that vein, and I'm
sure the district attorney will give due deliberation to the
facts in this case and they'll make a determination based
on the totality of the circumstances. So there are going
to be some things that are known only to the
DA's office and to the investigation that the public may
(22:35):
not find out about until trial. But they're going to
take all of that information. They're going to assemble their
panel and there will review the actual facts and evidence
in this case and make a determination on whether this
is going to be one of those cases where that
ultimate punishment is appropriate for the facts of this case.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
So this guy a queeno or quino, he's forty three
years old. He may never see another free moment in
his life.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
So so there's a possibility that that that may occur.
Mister Garcia Akino is looking at numerous charges. As the
District Attorney's office put out today, it was amended again
with the inclusion of a twenty twenty two LAPD case.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Oh, that's right. There was a case three years ago,
and whatever happened in that case, it was not it
was I don't know if it was tossed out, but
I heard that the that the victim was not able
or willing to testify.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Yeah, So, as often happens with some of these investigations
into child sexual assault, sometimes the victims are not necessarily
ready to move forward. One of the things with this
particular case, I know there was some discussion yesterday about
the length of time it took for the other case
to go through the DiscT attorney's review process, you know,
(23:58):
and I want to inform the public. Unfortunately, some of
these cases take a long time to work through. We
have to do a lot of scientific analysis. There are
often other investigative steps that are not apparent to the
public that we have to take before we move forward
and putting those charges on someone. And we want to
be fair. We want to make sure that we have
(24:20):
a good set of facts before we move forward on
these types of investigations.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Right, But why wouldn't if this guy was investigated three
years ago for sexual abuse on a child, why wouldn't
that instantly disallow him to ever be around kids orly
and coach kids. Again, I don't understand how that didn't
trigger a, you know, a warning. I don't know if
(24:44):
it's you know, a sexual predators list or whatever. But
that kid, this kid, Oscar Hernandez, could have been alive
today if his parents knew that well.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
So, I don't want to speak for any other organizations
outside of the police department. You quite often see individuals
that represent themselves as a coach that is attached to
a certain school organization, a government agency. We hear about
all of these things where they betray the confidence of
(25:16):
parents and children. To the parents and children, I need
everyone to listen to me. Very carefully for a second. Here,
you need to know if someone is actually an actual
coach for an organization, what their affiliations are, what their jobs,
roles and responsibilities are, and if they're truly connected. So,
for instance, you go to a park, you see a
(25:39):
bunch of different teams practicing. Someone represents themselves as a coach.
As a parent, you need to make sure that that
individual is directly affiliated with an organization.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Right are you saying that this guy wasn't?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I am just cautioning people that they need to make
sure that when they are meeting someone that represents themselves
as a quote coach.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So this could have been a guy just hanging out
of the park saying he as a coach.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
So we have a lot of coaches of teams of
organizations that present themselves as vetted coaches and they'll identify
themselves as being involved with an organization.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
And they're not, and they're not. Oh my god, all
these parents must be just beside themselves. Let's talk about
how we can get more good guys and good gals
on the streets of the city of Los Angeles. I
know this Saturday, you have a huge open house welcoming
new potential employees to lapd.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
SO On Saturday morning at seven am at our Westchester Academy,
the Amason Recruit Training Center, we are going to have
a hiring seminar and hiring testing and physical fitness assessment.
It starts at seven o'clock in the morning for check in.
Eight o'clock will be given the written test, and at
eleven o'clock will be going out to the field and
doing a physical fitness assessment so everyone knows where they are.
(27:00):
I'm a dinosaur. I've got thirty five years in this game,
and I will not be around forever. So what I
would love to see is the next generation that's going
to be helping us in investigations very much like this
tim that are going to learn how to be good
street cops. They're going to be learning, you know, the
best detective skills in the world, with the best agency
in the world. They're going to be with the finest
(27:20):
people in law enforcement, taking that first step coming to
be the next generation of the Los Ange Police Department.
I can't think of a more important job right now
in this department than to bring the next generation on
and get them prepared for all the things that are becoming.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
To Los Angeles in the future. I think you're right.
We've got the World Cup coming in, We've got the
Olympics coming in, and we're trying to rebuild this city.
I mean, there are three major events going on here
for the next five years.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And all the Dodgers parades that we're gonna be h.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
That's right, that's exactly right.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So we've got to be prepared, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
So seven am. Why do you guys have to do
that so early? You know, it seems early.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
We get people used to getting up early, very early
on tim seven am. Westchester Academy. Where is that in Westchester?
Is that near the airport it is? It's going to
be right there near Manchester in Aviation. Yeah, right, literally
right there, just outside of the city of Englewood. And
we're going to be providing information regarding what the career
(28:17):
looks like, what the possibilities are for the future, good
great pay and great benefits.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Same tests for men and women, absolutely, same tests.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
And the best thing about this is you're going to
have information directly from our Recruitment and Employment division. Shout
out to our new captain Lisa Vocaba. She's going to
be there and we're going to be talking about what
opportunities exist in the Los Ange Police Department. All right.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
And I have a buddy who's retired LAPD, and he
said he can't remember a single one of these festivities
or these you know, Westchester Academy or LAPD Academy when
they bring in the new crowd, he said, He said,
he it's shocking in almost every time a guy who
(29:01):
signs up to be LAPD has warrants out for himself.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Oh no, we do. We do the best background in
the Trust me when I tell you, we do a
very very thorough background, and we screen very carefully. We
hire five out of one hundred. If we're lucky, only
four out of one hundred get it to the street.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Wow, buddy, I hope you come back often. And how
many years left before you retire.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I'll be around for a few more years. I'm not
going anywhere. Three I've got at least three going right,
three years?
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Okay, Oh yeah, please come back. Let's make it a regular.
I love talking to you. You're one of the great
cops in the world and we appreciate you taking time
for us.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Man.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Thank you for your support. You are the best. Sorry
we'll come back. We'll update you on the one thirty
four freeway. Looks like one lane eastbound open right now,
and the guy in the back with the shorts on
on his cell phone is the suspect. So it's crazy
out and Eagle Rock will come back and tell you
what's going on out there. We're live on KFI AM
six forty Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
(30:01):
Now you can always hear us live on KFI AM
