Speaker 1 (00:00):
You said you touched on this last night. The teacher
at the Academy for Urban Scholars High School Yes in Columbus,
facing serious allegations reportedly offering to pay a student to
have her soon to be ex husband killed for two
thousand dollars. She offered to have you know, carry this out,
and student initially was paid two fifty as like in

(00:24):
cash as a down payment, two hundred and fifty dollars.
So they've collected digital evidence recorded phone call between the
student and the teacher. Stephanie Demetrius is her name, And
then you were saying, well, she's been released on one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash surety bond.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
One hundred and fifty thousand dollars. It should have been
a million. She tried not only to take a human life,
but take a human life by utilizing a child in
school under her control and purview and condemning him to
a life as a murderer because she was unhappy in

(01:04):
her life. One hundred and fifty thousand dollars was chump change.
It should have been at least a million. Um.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Some of the I don't know how many of the
details are the type of stuff that you went over.
Excuse me for not hearing that last night when you
were talking about it.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
I'll think about it.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
But she provided details about her husband's schedule, noting when
the children would be out of the house. He worked
from home. She was questioned, which I thought was I'm like, well,
that's pretty astute that the kid was questioning her about
potential noise from gunfire. I mean, think about do you

(01:45):
I mean you're asking, you're given two thousand, I mean,
do you just go you know, ooh, I just keep
seeing those dollars signs, I just give me the money.
This gay he's going, so what about gunfire? The sound
of gun I feel like, I'm like, that's actually somebody
who was clearly thinking this through.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
I don't know what kind of kid he was in
the first place. I only know that her efforts would
have made him worse.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Yes and right, he couldn't have been straight a scholars
to I mean, I don't think it feels like someone
of that caliber would have just from the get going
next no, not doing that. I don't care what you offer.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I think there had to be some conscience there. He
I think he's the one that brought brought out that hey,
this teacher's trying to pay me to kill her husban
like he blew the whistle.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, she dismissed concerns about the neighbors and all of that.
She tried to downplay, you know, any noise from gunfire
or whatever.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
She's just trying to She didn't care if he got
caught or not. She just deny it. I'm glad that
they left a trail. So even if she denied it
or you know, God forbid, hubby was prepared and ended
up shooting the kid there where there would be evidence
back to her culpability and the whole thing.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yeah, they've been together twenty one years that they're going
through divorce proceedings right now. So so I get, Yeah,
she's released on bond. Would you consider her a flight risk?

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:09):
I mean, I don't know what she could be looking
at here. If they pin all of this on her,
find her completely guilty, so on and so forth, I
just wonder what she could be looking at. If it's
a significant amount of time, I'd say, yeah, she's a
flight risk. Pretty simple.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I would say. Anybody who's crazy enough to want to
pay a high school kid to kill their husband is
crazy enough to run. So she's a flight risk just
out of the nature of what she was trying to do.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Right, There was a few Ohiglands that made Forbes Billionaires list.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Check from my name h A. R. L. E. S
put it is. If you see me on that list,
I'm testing you for drugs.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
No need for a test. You're not on it, all right? Uh?
The veg Ramaswami's on here, No surprise. He has a
billion dollar net worth one billion less wexner. Do you
know how much he's worth when like maybe four hundred
mili Now this is a billionaire. No, I'm still saying

(04:13):
about four hundred.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Things have not gone well, the limited and Pink and everything.
Things have not gone well for a few years, So
I kind of I'm kind of surprised he's on the list.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
First of all, I didn't realize he was eighty seven
years old. But he is, Yeah, behind l Brand Victoria's secrebath.
But what about seven point nine billion?

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Really he's worth a lot less invested.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Well, I've heard some people say that there is some
odd things in his life, very odd things. But aren't
they always eccentric when they're really really, really rich? I
mean think about what it takes to get him going.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
Yeah, you know, could be something. But you know what
I would be, judge, if I were to be that wealthy,
I would be eccentric to simply because people will look
at me. I had no idea, because that would be
eccentric behavior to be a billionaire and driving a used
car and wearing a blaid shirt from Walmart or something.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
Looking like a lumberjeck.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Why throw it away? Man, if you're blessed enough to
have it, want to you want to keep it, you
want to pass it on to the future generations. I
wouldn't be out there living wild and showing off.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I gotta be honest. I would have all kinds of
stupid stuff.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Fifteen different motorcycles. I would.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
I'm serious. I'm bougie. Yeah, I'll admit it. I don't care,
I'll admit it. I you know, a couple of different
times in my life, and I do mean a couple,
maybe three or less. Somewhere around there, I've flown first class.
I'm like, man, this is how to go right here.
But you know, I'm curmudgety sometimes, especially with stuff like that.

(05:48):
I'm like, man, I just want to be comfortable.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Even if I did something that was bougie, I wouldn't
let anybody know about it.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yeah. See, I don't care.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Seem like I quietly drive out to the airport and
get get net jets going and so yeah, you know,
take me someplace warm, right, but nobody wouldn't know about it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Just i'd have sports car. I'd be like, I'm probably
Jay Leno and Jerry Seinfeld combined. Fight enough money, I'd
have all kinds of stupid sports car, stupid stuff and
look it might go away, that itch gets scratched, and
then I sell everything because I'm like I had that
because I've owned a Corvette. I've owned a couple of Corvettes,
and I sold them. I was like, I loved having them.

(06:25):
It was a lot of fun. And then I was like,
all right, I'm kind of over this. But I do
like I've always wanted, like the Italian Lamborghini like stuff
like that. I've always wanted that that kind of stuff.
That's where I would be with that. I wouldn't be
trying to hide any of it.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
I bought a pair of floor Shine shoes once, and
you would have thought I got my master's degree.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Cincinnati Bengals owner Mike Brown. He's worth almost four billion.
He's on this list. Uh, Cleveland's Learner family worth over
three billion.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
I don't know who they are.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
The Learner I think they have a we'll see. Former
Cleveland Brown's owner al Lerner inherited money from her husband
Norma Learner. Children were also heirs to the well. Okay, yeah, oh,
I was thinking of a different company with that. So
some of the honorable mentions Lebron James worth one point

(07:19):
two billion. Then Dan Gilbert and Detroit businessman Cavaliers owner
Dan Gilbert, founder of Quick and Loans Rocket Companies, has
about twenty seven point eight billion performs. He lives in Detroit.
Jimmy Haslam's on here eight and a half billion. So

(07:39):

on there.
