Time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Michael Verie Show.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Is on the air.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
I return to this chamber tonight to report that America's
momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,
our confidence is back, and the American Dream is surging
bigger and better than ever before. This will be our
(00:37):
greatest era. With God's help, over the next four years,
we are going to lead this nation even higher, and
we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic,
and most dominant civilization ever to exist on the face
of this earth.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
We are going to.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Create the highest quality of life, the safest and wealthiest,
and healthiest and most vital communities anywhere in the world.
We are going to conquer the vast frontiers of science,
and we are going to lead humanity into space and
plant the American flag on the planet Mars and even
(01:19):
far beyond. And through it all, we are going to
(01:46):
rediscover the unstoppable power of the American spirit, and we
are going to renew unlimited promise of the American Dream.
Every single day, we will stand up and we will fight,
fight right for the country our citizens believe in, and
for the country our people deserve. My fellow Americans, get
(02:09):
ready for an incredible future because the Golden Age of
America has only just begun. It will be like nothing
that has ever been seen before. Thank you, God bless you,
and God bless.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
So Who's correct, James Clamburn, Rang Wilson, got Jennings. We
have montage after montage. We build them, we find them,
we share them. I could do it all day, every day.
I think it's very I think these montages are very
powerful because you kind of get a sense of what's
(02:52):
going on, but when you notice the pattern, it really
really really drives it home.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Tonight, there are growing questions about the man once known
as America's Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, and if he is being
used by Russia to influence the twenty twenty presidential campaign.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
President Trump on the attack today, going after Joe Biden
and his family with dubious accusations.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I'll tell you why.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
That's an organized crime family as well as I'm concerned.
Speaker 6 (03:23):
The President is referencing a tabloid newspaper story with emails
purportedly swiped from the Vice President's son Hunter, but CBS
News has learned the President was personally warned by the
National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien that the man who provided
the information to the tabloid, his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani,
(03:44):
was the target of a Russian influence campaign aimed at
discrediting Biden. CBS News has learned the FBI is now
looking into whether the information found on the device may
be part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
This looks like Russian intel leigence. This walks like Russian intelligence.
This talks like Russian intelligence. This effort by Rudy Giuliani
and the New York Post and Steve Bannon to cook
up suppose a dirt on Joe Biden looks like a
classic Russian playbook disinformation campaign. So when the intelligence community
(04:18):
goes in and warns Donald Trump that Rudy Giuliani is
being worked over by Russian intelligence, and then Rudy Juliani
suddenly comes forward with these mysteriously created emails, probably hacked
through Russian intelligence operation, we have to acknowledge the fact
that the President of the United States is supporting, is condoning,
(04:39):
is welcoming a Russian intelligence operation. In twenty twenty, Nicole,
this is collusion in plain sight.
Speaker 8 (04:46):
This is just classic textbook Soviet Russian trade craft at work.
The Russians have analyze the targement. They understand that the
president and his enablers crave dirt on Vice prosen Biden.
Whether it's real or contrived, it doesn't matter to them.
(05:09):
And so all of a sudden two and a half
weeks before the election of this laptop appears somehow without
and emails on without any metadata.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's just it's all very curious.
Speaker 8 (05:23):
But so here you have a willing target and the
Russians who are very sophisticated about how to exploit a
willing target, And to me, that's what's it working.
Speaker 9 (05:35):
The FBI says, this laptop is not Russian disinformation, So
what are you talking about here?
Speaker 10 (05:41):
This laptop is real.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It's not just the laptop.
Speaker 9 (05:44):
There's other emails, there's text messages.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
They are real.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
So look according to their government, I know, yeah.
Speaker 11 (05:51):
I've verified everybody to look at that, but that's not
what we're hearing from you.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
You want to report this.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
This is one of the most power because families and.
Speaker 9 (05:59):
Watching this, the Biden family, and you're okay, You're okay
with our interest being soiled out to profit Joe Biden
and his family when when we're suffering during a pandemic
from contest China's.
Speaker 12 (06:15):
World.
Speaker 11 (06:16):
Okay, as you know perfectly well, I'm a journalist and
a reporter and I follow the facts and there has
never been any issues in terms of corruption. Now, let
me ask you this yesterday, the FBI.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
The FBI that.
Speaker 11 (06:32):
I'm talking about reporting and any evidence. I'm talking to
you now, Okay, I would ask.
Speaker 9 (06:38):
If you guys dodon and start doing that beverific.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
No, we're not going to do your work for you.
Speaker 11 (06:43):
I want to ask you a question, the FBI journalist.
Speaker 9 (06:48):
It's a journalist job to mind out if this is verified.
Speaker 13 (06:52):
I think it's one of the biggest scandals I've ever seen.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
And you don't go for it. You want to talk
about it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I want to talk about insignificant things. I'm telling you.
It can be verified.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
They found the laptop, Leslie.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
What can't be verify the laptop?
Speaker 3 (07:11):
You said?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Was that your laptop? For real? I don't know, I know,
but you know that I really don't know what.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
Okay, answer is you don't know yes or no? If
the laptop, I don't was the idea I've had no idea,
what there could have been yours?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Of course, certainly there could be a laptop out there
that was stolen from me. There could be that I
was hacked. It could be that there was that it
was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen
from me.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
And you didn't drop off a laptop to be repaired Delaware,
and I remember at all.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
In October twenty twenty, a New York Post article said
that emails purportedly showing shady dealings in Ukraine by Hunter
Biden were found on a laptop computer that he supposedly
left in a Delaware repair shop in twenty nineteen. The
details were sketchy at best, and last month, declassified intelligence
(08:01):
reports said that before the election, the Russians had launched
a smear campaign against Joe Biden and his family.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Take you at, what's the anes and then you say
her that shouldn't be discussed.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I'm saying, it's the biggest scandal out there, leslie, And
it's the biggest issue.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
What else do you want to marry?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
What do you want you want to They just to
say the word and I'll throw asole around the plug down.
There is a doctor in Houston. She's become nationally famous.
Her name is Stella Emmanuel. Stella Emmanuel is an American hero.
She's from is she from Nigeria, Armon, She's from some
(08:45):
She's from out in what they call the bush. She's
from out in a small rural community in Africa. And
she's an amazing story. She goes to she goes to
med school. She comes to the United States. She's practice.
She practices in these clinics where the people are all poor,
bad diseases. She was trained in Africa, so she understands
(09:09):
that things like ivermectin, hydrochloroquine, hydrochloroquin is that right, hydroxychloroquin, hydroxychlorquin.
She understands how valuable these things are because they're cheap
medicine for the masses and they work. It's also what
they do in India. So she's talking in front of
the State House in Texas during a hearing about making
(09:31):
ivermectin over the counter in Texas OTC. You won't need
a prescription anymore. And I want you to listen to
a Democrat trying to discredit her. Wow, she has crazy
religious beliefe. What does it matter. Let's stipulate this fact
they're crazy. Let's not argue over them. Let's stipulate us
fact that they're crazy. All right, Does that affect her
as a doctor. This is what they do, the ad
(09:53):
hominem attacks. This is what they do.
Speaker 12 (09:55):
And then this is an article from Cardiovascular Business dot com.
This is the Daily Beast investigated in Manuel after video
went Cail, noting that she has previously claimed that alien
DNA is regularly used in medical treatments and that reptilian
aliens are associated with the US government a manual approved
of The Daily.
Speaker 14 (10:13):
Per say, ma'am, that is even if I believe that
aliens fly on the roof, it has nothing to do
with my medical skills. It has nothing to do with
I've met them. I mean, I don't know what everybody
here believes. You can't believe whatever you want. You can
believe anything. But my beliefs have nothing to do with
the testimony on gram and the fact that that was
(10:34):
what happened. So I'm sorry to interrupt you, but that's
what happened. When I came out in twenty twenty, I
went viral all over the world advocating for people to live,
to treat Texans, to treat the world to make sure
that a disease that was treatable was treatable daily bats
and everybody pull up my ministry. I'm a minister of
the Gospel with deliverance. Minister. Yes, I believe in casting
(10:54):
out demons, but that has nothing to do with my
skills as a medical doctor. I'm believing that people need
to get treatment and not let people die. Okay, thank you,
I'm sorry about that, and I'm still spatching it a moment.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Then there is, in my opinion, one of the most
awful human beings in the world. He lives in Houston.
I saw him at the airport not so long ago.
But I'm not for harassing people at the airport. I
think that's stupid. I just looked at him. He looked nervous,
like at some point he was worried some I's gonna
come up and punch him in the face.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
He did.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
His name is doctor Peter Hotess, and he is a
paid shill for the pharmaceutical industry. I genuinely think he's
going to hell for the evil he's done, just like
Peter Fauci. I really do. I think he's going to
hell for this. I think he's an awful, awful, awful
human being. But just listen. This is a montage. It
(11:48):
was put together by a site called racket.
Speaker 15 (11:51):
One of the things that we're not hearing a lot
about is the unique potential safety problem of coronavirus vaccines.
The thing changed is any vaccine released by emergency use
authorization by the FDA is outstanding vaccine.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
Jane Jay's vaccine has a risk of life threatening blood cloths.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
When you hear the beat, that's the sound of safety.
So don't overthink it. They're they're both really good food.
Speaker 15 (12:18):
Back, They're all really good vaccines.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Get vaccinated in that. You got a call now.
Speaker 15 (12:22):
If you wait, it's going to be really too late
to protect your child.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
If this was your child, what happens next could make
it the worst day of your life.
Speaker 7 (12:30):
So, even though COVID poses a zero threat to healthy children,
vaccining your children.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Do the right thing. Be safe and not sorry.
Speaker 15 (12:37):
I'm strongly recommending for adolescents to get there two doses
of vaccine and fully immunized after those two doses, and.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
Fair technology that can help save lives.
Speaker 15 (12:46):
This is going to be a long lasting vaccine.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Long lasting vaccine. A few moments later.
Speaker 15 (12:51):
We're seeing that two doses is not holding up well
for emergency room visitists, not holding up well for hospitalizations.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Really, everyone's going to need a booster. You need that
third immunization. Triple the amount you get that third immunization.
Speaker 15 (13:07):
The two m RNA vaccines were always a three dose vaccine.
The two m RNA vaccines were always a three dose vaccine.
I've always said this is a three dose vaccine. I've
always said this is a three dose vaccine. This is
a three dose vaccine.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
But I'm not done yet.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
That third immunization.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
The problem is it's not holding up.
Speaker 15 (13:25):
So we may have to look at sort of innovative solutions.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
To oh God, not this again, a fourth.
Speaker 15 (13:31):
Immunization, or just just to keep them, to keep them going, keep.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The country going. You have to consider them out of
the box things.
Speaker 15 (13:37):
A fourth immunization, for a fourth immunization, get that second boost,
a second boost.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
To keep the country going.
Speaker 15 (13:44):
I've made that recommendation, but fourth immunization, but I'm still
not done.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I'm submissed to lay down.
Speaker 15 (13:50):
Unfortunately, the numbers are starting to trend up again, so
the hospitalizations are off, and so the most important message
that I have this morning is get your new by
mail and booster.
Speaker 16 (14:00):
Willy and Lee's were saying they got their booster, and
I was like, Oh, I need to get mine. And
then I found out they're talking about the third shot
And is that the bivalent or is it the fourth booster?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Or does it matter? Like, don't worry so much about
the number of the Former CDC director Robert Redfield says,
what we've done in this country is build not a
healthcare system, but a disease system. These things are coming
to light, you know, the truth is slowly but surely emerging.
Brave people are coming forward to show you what's happening,
(14:34):
and the people with blood on their hands are scurrying.
Speaker 13 (14:38):
They are Bobby Kennedy is sort of put on the
table that it's time for us to make America healthy again.
I think it's shocking to me when you go from
the time when his uncle was president and we had
a one to three percent obesity rate and now we're
looking at anywhere from a forty to seventy percent obesity
rate depending on what group you look at. It's shocking
(15:01):
when we had a chronic disease among the American public
that might have been say, less than ten percent. And
now we're looking at chronic disease. It's the rule, not
the exception for most Americans living with chronic disease. If
we go back and try to dissect what we've done
in my fifty years as a physician or forty five
(15:23):
years as a physician, is we've progressively built a disease system.
We've not built a health system. Kennedy believes we can
make America healthy again. I'm obviously committed to helping him
accomplish that.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
As a physician.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Nothing could be more exciting than to flip this switch
from a disease system and the Senators hit a number
of it. That's what we have right now. We have
a disease system. We pay for illness. Everything's stare for
as long as you're sick. The system works. We need
to flip which and and and have a health system
(16:03):
so that we pay for wellness. And I think that
to me is what's really exciting and it's doable.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Michael Verry Joe a Houston in Dallas story has blown
up to become a national story, although I haven't seen
it talked about of late it. I think the reason
this story got so much attention. Certainly, why it cost
(16:39):
caused caught my attention was the first of all, the
utter senselessness of it all, and secondly, how beautiful the
woman who was shot and killed was. You remember the
details the woman and her boyfriend and they were in
Dallas and she's blond hair, blue out, I don't know
(17:02):
what her boyfriend looks like. He gets hit but doesn't die.
She dies all because of who knows we're about to
find out. And this black guy gets out of Mercedes
and just blasts I mean, we've got to learn some
better dispute resolution techniques. You see this Galveston cruise line,
people going crazy, just crazy over stupid stuff, and they
(17:28):
film it, stomping people's heads. This kid gets stabbed at
the track meet. Now now there's video of that same
kid that stabbed him in the heart. The same kid
at a basketball game not long before that. A kid
falls on the ground and this guy goes up and
stops his head into the I mean, what's going through
(17:51):
people's minds? How do you recover from losing a family
member so senselessly? We're all going to die, but how
do you recover when it's completely senseless? I've said this
before I can handle a car accident. I understand the
cost of doing busins. We're going to be in cars.
We're going to die, Okay, I got that. We're going
to die of diseases. We're gonna die of accidents. But this,
(18:14):
I just I can't. I can't. I just can't. So
you know, we're going to have a conversation and then
we're going to go home. We're going to go to bed,
and the family of this young lady Ashley, twenty years
(18:37):
from now we will forget her name, and you'll forget
this conversation and they will still be living with this
and that makes me damn near crazy.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Her brother's name is Kevin Marsalis, and he has been
kind enough to come on the show and talk about
this story. Kevin, welcome to the program.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Little Michael.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Can you are you in Houston?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I am. I am.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Most of the family is from Fort Bend County, so
welcome in the area.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
And as I understand it, Ashley was a realtor and
she was at a real estate convention with two friends,
met up with other friends and they started networking as
realtors do. Can you take the story from there and
and take your time and give us the details.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Sure, So she met some some realtors out of Dallas
a few months ago, and she was going back up
there to to network with them, go out with them.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
She had some friends.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
In one correction, the guy that she was with that
was hit was not our boyfriend. He was just a friend.
So they they were out on the town. Our understanding
was the restaurant was closing. They were leaving her in
(19:59):
the This guy were walking across the street and a
Mercedes passed by pretty close to him, and it sounds
like the guy she was with bumped into it or
brushed up against the car, and the car stopped. Passenger
(20:20):
got out and started shooting. When he did, my sister
was hit somewhere in the shoulder region, and from what
we know, the other person was hit in the leg.
So my mother got the phone call around two thirty
(20:45):
in the morning. She scrambled to get up and her
and my sister fiance started to drive to Dallas, and
about thirty forty minutes later, they got the call from
the detective that she didn't make it.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
So, you know, they made it up to Dallas.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Ashley's father lives father and stepmom lives west of Dallas
and Alito Uh He was in Louisiana working, so they
were both about three to four hours away when they
got the news, trying to make the drive to the
police station. At that point, they originally thought they were
(21:33):
going to be going.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
To the hospital, but then.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
It became, you know, a situation where they had to
go to the police station and.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Gather all the details.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
You know, as as a family, we we were just
trying to wrap our heads around it because to hear
that she was shot just made no sense. You know,
she was kind hearted, always loving to everybody, So you
just can't understand how somebody that kind would we just
(22:06):
get shot, you know, in the street.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
So, you know, the details after the fact were.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
The police had plenty of video surveillance from the area
of businesses, so they knew very quickly who the person
was that.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Had shot He.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
He got a lawyer and called him that day and said,
you know, I was the passenger in this car, and
I mentioned that he was trying to get financial stuff
together before he turned himself in.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
And then he didn't turn himself in, And the only
thing that we can guess is maybe he didn't know
that she had passed away before he called UH, and
so he was. He was on the run for for
two weeks. The Marshalls were looking for him, UH, and
they finally put his information out on on the news
(23:18):
on social media, and then a day or two later
he turned himself in.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
So that's where we're at today. He's he's got a
half a.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Million dollar bond right now. We're going next week because
his lawyer is wanting to go before the judge to
get that bond reduced. So we're going to meet with
the DA and and said through that hearing to to
make sure that doesn't happen.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Kendrick Finch. I believe his name to be, and I
understand he has a long criminal record. This is a
bad bad guy.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
This is not UH.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
He has a pattern of horrible decisions like this. Am
I right in your understanding?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Yes, yeah, you're right.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
He's got a long rap sheet And that's what they
told us right away, that he's a bad guy.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
So now we're we're pushing to to.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Make sure that that bond doesn't reduced. As mentioned, he
ran for two weeks, so I thought was is that
he could run again.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Yeah, he will.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
The whole reason for a bond is for him to
get out and run again or go kill other people.
Whole just a moment. Kevin Marcellus is our guest. Sister
was murdered in Dallas a few weeks ago, and unfortunately
this is happening far too often.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
State Time.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
Ramon the King of Ding and this other guy, Michael Barry.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
These are the kind of guy you like to smacking air.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Kevin Marcellis's start guest. His sister Ashley was realtor at
a real estate convention in Dallas on April fifth, which
she was murdered by a turd thug with a long
criminal record. It's not in any way out of character
for him, and on May seventh, his lawyer will appeal
for his five hundred thousand dollars bond to be reduced.
(25:23):
Little reminder, I know you folks know this, but a
bond is just a surety. It's collateral to ensure that
you show up to court when the case comes. So
the way a bond is set is supposedly to give
you a disincentive to flee. And you will put up
(25:43):
ten percent of the number that when you hear someone
has a million dollar bond. They have to put up
one hundred thousand dollars. Twenty thousand dollars bond is just
two thousand dollars. Now, there is something called the recognizance
bonds bond, which you can literally just it's you sign
your name, good for it, and these are too often
used with Soros district attorneys. You're basically just telling the
(26:05):
guy pinky square, you'll come back. Yeah, Well he's got
blood all over him from just having murdered somebody. Why
would you ever trust that guy. So anyway, the point
of the bond is the bail bondsman keeps the ten
percent if you show up. If you don't, he's on
the hook for it. So guess what he does. We
just outsource the oversight of people who are accused and
(26:26):
not yet tried. Because you put a financial incentive on
a bail bondsman. He's going to know where this guy is,
and he's going to know who all his family members are,
and he's probably going to make them pledge their house
and their cars and all that. So he's going to
ensure the guy gets to court. That's the way this works. Ideally,
that's what will happen because he doesn't want to cough
up that five hundred thousand dollars. Well, this guy doesn't
(26:47):
need a bond because he's a bad person. And he
murdered somebody and then he said he would turn himself
in and then he went on the run. And he's
shown a pattern of bad behaviors. And I'm hoping we'll
bring enough attention to this that they don't lower the bond. Kevin,
let me ask you, what was your first thought? I
(27:09):
read you got to call at two thirty to see
April fifth. Your mom, Michelle Longer, received a call a
little after two thirty from your sister, Ashley's friend. Okay,
so Ashley's been killed, letting her know that Ashley had
been shot and that they had performed CPR until paramedics arrived.
My mother and Ashley's fiance, Jacob, took off for Dallas,
(27:30):
as we all live in Fort Bene County. A little
after three am, we received a call from the detective
letting her know that Ashley had passed from the wounds
from this thug herd. She was only twenty eight years old.
What was your first thought when you when you got
this news.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I would have believed any other thing that you could
have called and told me.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Outside of that, I just sort of thing. You know,
you hear about it than the news, and you.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Think it's you know, people doing something wrong or hanging
out with the wrong people. You never would think that
somebody just hanging out with friends, you know, crossing the
street in Dallas and someone you love, whatever has happened
to him. This is so outside, you know, the pale
(28:26):
of what you would expect. And our father said it,
Bessie said, you know, it's just like a nightmare you
can't wake up from. You know, every day you wake
up and hope it it's not real, and.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
Then you realize it is.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
So it's it's still hard to believe.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
And it's been almost a month.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
I hope they don't lower the bond. I hope they
put him away. I hope he never sees a light
of day. I hope he has a miserable time in prison,
and I hope he's haunted with regret. Now that being done,
let's celebrate the life of your sister, Ashley. Tell me
what kind of person she.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
Was she somebody said it best at the service. They
said she she was always the life.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Of the party.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
But she never wanted to be the center of attention.
So she wanted everybody to have fun, but she never
wanted to be the center of attention. She I never
you know, she was much younger than me, we had
a fifteen year difference. But we never had a cross word.
I never heard her say a negative thing about anybody.
(29:35):
And you know, had this thug, you know, gone to
her and asked her for a meal or you know,
to buy them some clothes or anything. She would have
done anything, you know, because she just she she.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Didn't see bad in anybody.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
She she you know, every stray animal she came across,
she she wanted to take it in, and every person
she just saw the good in them. So it's just,
you know, we're feeling it right now.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
But you know the world's gonna.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Miss her going forward because she she she didn't have
a bath on anybody.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Did you learn anything from this? Are you a different person?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
In a way?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
That is remarkable? I find that when we go through
awful things like this, we change, and maybe not for
the better, but we change in a way that that
it opens a door to us to an awareness, to
an awakening, to an experience, to a knowledge, maybe not.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
But yeah, you know, Michael, you said it in the beginning,
you expect or you know, you know that you're going
to lose.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Loved ones due to due to.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Illness or car accidents, and you know, you you lose them,
and you grieve.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
And you work through that. The thing that you know,
I've kind of learned is when it's it's.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Somebody else that that decided to make a decision.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
With no morals.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
And and you know, took someone you love, it's a
whole nother level of grief because.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
You know, there's you get over the grief of losing.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Them, and then you got to deal with you know,
sitting through bond hearings for instance, that's something that you
know you don't ever expect to do, especially being a
law abiding citizen. And then after that comes a trial.
So it's just a whole nother thing that that you
have to you know, plan to deal with and be
(31:38):
there for Mom.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Because you know, this was this was their best friend.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
You know, they hung out every weekend, they went shopping,
and so to lose hers is like you know her,
you know, her favorite person. So it it's tough, you know,
it teaches you to to value every day teaches.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
You to, you know, not take anything for.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Granted, and love on everyone every chance you get, because
you never know.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Keven, I talked for a living. I wish there was
something I could say to bring Ashley Renee Long back
to you and your family.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
I know.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Y'all are hurting. The finality, the shock, the sense of loss,
the sense of missed moments in the future. It's just tough.
I mean, there's just no way around this, and my
(32:40):
heart hurts for you and your entire family. Thank you
for being willing to share this story. This is why, folks,
we have to serve on jury's, This is why we
have to vote for the district attorneys. This is why
maybe this case couldn't have been stopped at that moment,
but it could have been stopped. We build cages for
(33:00):
people like this guy, and that's where he belonged, in
a cage around other animals just like him, not hurting
people who were doing good for the rest of society. Kevin,
thank you for being willing to share your story.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Sir Christians, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Lay Man ils nights night for good lad Thank you
and good night
It's that time.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Michael Verie Show.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Is on the air.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
I return to this chamber tonight to report that America's
momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,
our confidence is back, and the American Dream is surging
bigger and better than ever before. This will be our
(00:37):
greatest era. With God's help, over the next four years,
we are going to lead this nation even higher, and
we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic,
and most dominant civilization ever to exist on the face
of this earth.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
We are going to.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Create the highest quality of life, the safest and wealthiest,
and healthiest and most vital communities anywhere in the world.
We are going to conquer the vast frontiers of science,
and we are going to lead humanity into space and
plant the American flag on the planet Mars and even
(01:19):
far beyond. And through it all, we are going to
(01:46):
rediscover the unstoppable power of the American spirit, and we
are going to renew unlimited promise of the American Dream.
Every single day, we will stand up and we will fight,
fight right for the country our citizens believe in, and
for the country our people deserve. My fellow Americans, get
(02:09):
ready for an incredible future because the Golden Age of
America has only just begun. It will be like nothing
that has ever been seen before. Thank you, God bless you,
and God bless.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
So Who's correct, James Clamburn, Rang Wilson, got Jennings. We
have montage after montage. We build them, we find them,
we share them. I could do it all day, every day.
I think it's very I think these montages are very
powerful because you kind of get a sense of what's
(02:52):
going on, but when you notice the pattern, it really
really really drives it home.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Tonight, there are growing questions about the man once known
as America's Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, and if he is being
used by Russia to influence the twenty twenty presidential campaign.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
President Trump on the attack today, going after Joe Biden
and his family with dubious accusations.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I'll tell you why.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
That's an organized crime family as well as I'm concerned.
Speaker 6 (03:23):
The President is referencing a tabloid newspaper story with emails
purportedly swiped from the Vice President's son Hunter, but CBS
News has learned the President was personally warned by the
National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien that the man who provided
the information to the tabloid, his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani,
(03:44):
was the target of a Russian influence campaign aimed at
discrediting Biden. CBS News has learned the FBI is now
looking into whether the information found on the device may
be part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
This looks like Russian intel leigence. This walks like Russian intelligence.
This talks like Russian intelligence. This effort by Rudy Giuliani
and the New York Post and Steve Bannon to cook
up suppose a dirt on Joe Biden looks like a
classic Russian playbook disinformation campaign. So when the intelligence community
(04:18):
goes in and warns Donald Trump that Rudy Giuliani is
being worked over by Russian intelligence, and then Rudy Juliani
suddenly comes forward with these mysteriously created emails, probably hacked
through Russian intelligence operation, we have to acknowledge the fact
that the President of the United States is supporting, is condoning,
(04:39):
is welcoming a Russian intelligence operation. In twenty twenty, Nicole,
this is collusion in plain sight.
Speaker 8 (04:46):
This is just classic textbook Soviet Russian trade craft at work.
The Russians have analyze the targement. They understand that the
president and his enablers crave dirt on Vice prosen Biden.
Whether it's real or contrived, it doesn't matter to them.
(05:09):
And so all of a sudden two and a half
weeks before the election of this laptop appears somehow without
and emails on without any metadata.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's just it's all very curious.
Speaker 8 (05:23):
But so here you have a willing target and the
Russians who are very sophisticated about how to exploit a
willing target, And to me, that's what's it working.
Speaker 9 (05:35):
The FBI says, this laptop is not Russian disinformation, So
what are you talking about here?
Speaker 10 (05:41):
This laptop is real.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It's not just the laptop.
Speaker 9 (05:44):
There's other emails, there's text messages.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
They are real.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
So look according to their government, I know, yeah.
Speaker 11 (05:51):
I've verified everybody to look at that, but that's not
what we're hearing from you.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
You want to report this.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
This is one of the most power because families and.
Speaker 9 (05:59):
Watching this, the Biden family, and you're okay, You're okay
with our interest being soiled out to profit Joe Biden
and his family when when we're suffering during a pandemic
from contest China's.
Speaker 12 (06:15):
World.
Speaker 11 (06:16):
Okay, as you know perfectly well, I'm a journalist and
a reporter and I follow the facts and there has
never been any issues in terms of corruption. Now, let
me ask you this yesterday, the FBI.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
The FBI that.
Speaker 11 (06:32):
I'm talking about reporting and any evidence. I'm talking to
you now, Okay, I would ask.
Speaker 9 (06:38):
If you guys dodon and start doing that beverific.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
No, we're not going to do your work for you.
Speaker 11 (06:43):
I want to ask you a question, the FBI journalist.
Speaker 9 (06:48):
It's a journalist job to mind out if this is verified.
Speaker 13 (06:52):
I think it's one of the biggest scandals I've ever seen.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
And you don't go for it. You want to talk
about it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I want to talk about insignificant things. I'm telling you.
It can be verified.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
They found the laptop, Leslie.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
What can't be verify the laptop?
Speaker 3 (07:11):
You said?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Was that your laptop? For real? I don't know, I know,
but you know that I really don't know what.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
Okay, answer is you don't know yes or no? If
the laptop, I don't was the idea I've had no idea,
what there could have been yours?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Of course, certainly there could be a laptop out there
that was stolen from me. There could be that I
was hacked. It could be that there was that it
was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen
from me.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
And you didn't drop off a laptop to be repaired Delaware,
and I remember at all.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
In October twenty twenty, a New York Post article said
that emails purportedly showing shady dealings in Ukraine by Hunter
Biden were found on a laptop computer that he supposedly
left in a Delaware repair shop in twenty nineteen. The
details were sketchy at best, and last month, declassified intelligence
(08:01):
reports said that before the election, the Russians had launched
a smear campaign against Joe Biden and his family.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Take you at, what's the anes and then you say
her that shouldn't be discussed.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I'm saying, it's the biggest scandal out there, leslie, And
it's the biggest issue.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
What else do you want to marry?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
What do you want you want to They just to
say the word and I'll throw asole around the plug down.
There is a doctor in Houston. She's become nationally famous.
Her name is Stella Emmanuel. Stella Emmanuel is an American hero.
She's from is she from Nigeria, Armon, She's from some
(08:45):
She's from out in what they call the bush. She's
from out in a small rural community in Africa. And
she's an amazing story. She goes to she goes to
med school. She comes to the United States. She's practice.
She practices in these clinics where the people are all poor,
bad diseases. She was trained in Africa, so she understands
(09:09):
that things like ivermectin, hydrochloroquine, hydrochloroquin is that right, hydroxychloroquin, hydroxychlorquin.
She understands how valuable these things are because they're cheap
medicine for the masses and they work. It's also what
they do in India. So she's talking in front of
the State House in Texas during a hearing about making
(09:31):
ivermectin over the counter in Texas OTC. You won't need
a prescription anymore. And I want you to listen to
a Democrat trying to discredit her. Wow, she has crazy
religious beliefe. What does it matter. Let's stipulate this fact
they're crazy. Let's not argue over them. Let's stipulate us
fact that they're crazy. All right, Does that affect her
as a doctor. This is what they do, the ad
(09:53):
hominem attacks. This is what they do.
Speaker 12 (09:55):
And then this is an article from Cardiovascular Business dot com.
This is the Daily Beast investigated in Manuel after video
went Cail, noting that she has previously claimed that alien
DNA is regularly used in medical treatments and that reptilian
aliens are associated with the US government a manual approved
of The Daily.
Speaker 14 (10:13):
Per say, ma'am, that is even if I believe that
aliens fly on the roof, it has nothing to do
with my medical skills. It has nothing to do with
I've met them. I mean, I don't know what everybody
here believes. You can't believe whatever you want. You can
believe anything. But my beliefs have nothing to do with
the testimony on gram and the fact that that was
(10:34):
what happened. So I'm sorry to interrupt you, but that's
what happened. When I came out in twenty twenty, I
went viral all over the world advocating for people to live,
to treat Texans, to treat the world to make sure
that a disease that was treatable was treatable daily bats
and everybody pull up my ministry. I'm a minister of
the Gospel with deliverance. Minister. Yes, I believe in casting
(10:54):
out demons, but that has nothing to do with my
skills as a medical doctor. I'm believing that people need
to get treatment and not let people die. Okay, thank you,
I'm sorry about that, and I'm still spatching it a moment.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Then there is, in my opinion, one of the most
awful human beings in the world. He lives in Houston.
I saw him at the airport not so long ago.
But I'm not for harassing people at the airport. I
think that's stupid. I just looked at him. He looked nervous,
like at some point he was worried some I's gonna
come up and punch him in the face.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
He did.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
His name is doctor Peter Hotess, and he is a
paid shill for the pharmaceutical industry. I genuinely think he's
going to hell for the evil he's done, just like
Peter Fauci. I really do. I think he's going to
hell for this. I think he's an awful, awful, awful
human being. But just listen. This is a montage. It
(11:48):
was put together by a site called racket.
Speaker 15 (11:51):
One of the things that we're not hearing a lot
about is the unique potential safety problem of coronavirus vaccines.
The thing changed is any vaccine released by emergency use
authorization by the FDA is outstanding vaccine.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
Jane Jay's vaccine has a risk of life threatening blood cloths.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
When you hear the beat, that's the sound of safety.
So don't overthink it. They're they're both really good food.
Speaker 15 (12:18):
Back, They're all really good vaccines.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Get vaccinated in that. You got a call now.
Speaker 15 (12:22):
If you wait, it's going to be really too late
to protect your child.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
If this was your child, what happens next could make
it the worst day of your life.
Speaker 7 (12:30):
So, even though COVID poses a zero threat to healthy children,
vaccining your children.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Do the right thing. Be safe and not sorry.
Speaker 15 (12:37):
I'm strongly recommending for adolescents to get there two doses
of vaccine and fully immunized after those two doses, and.
Speaker 7 (12:43):
Fair technology that can help save lives.
Speaker 15 (12:46):
This is going to be a long lasting vaccine.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Long lasting vaccine. A few moments later.
Speaker 15 (12:51):
We're seeing that two doses is not holding up well
for emergency room visitists, not holding up well for hospitalizations.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Really, everyone's going to need a booster. You need that
third immunization. Triple the amount you get that third immunization.
Speaker 15 (13:07):
The two m RNA vaccines were always a three dose vaccine.
The two m RNA vaccines were always a three dose vaccine.
I've always said this is a three dose vaccine. I've
always said this is a three dose vaccine. This is
a three dose vaccine.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
But I'm not done yet.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
That third immunization.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
The problem is it's not holding up.
Speaker 15 (13:25):
So we may have to look at sort of innovative solutions.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
To oh God, not this again, a fourth.
Speaker 15 (13:31):
Immunization, or just just to keep them, to keep them going, keep.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The country going. You have to consider them out of
the box things.
Speaker 15 (13:37):
A fourth immunization, for a fourth immunization, get that second boost,
a second boost.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
To keep the country going.
Speaker 15 (13:44):
I've made that recommendation, but fourth immunization, but I'm still
not done.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I'm submissed to lay down.
Speaker 15 (13:50):
Unfortunately, the numbers are starting to trend up again, so
the hospitalizations are off, and so the most important message
that I have this morning is get your new by
mail and booster.
Speaker 16 (14:00):
Willy and Lee's were saying they got their booster, and
I was like, Oh, I need to get mine. And
then I found out they're talking about the third shot
And is that the bivalent or is it the fourth booster?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Or does it matter? Like, don't worry so much about
the number of the Former CDC director Robert Redfield says,
what we've done in this country is build not a
healthcare system, but a disease system. These things are coming
to light, you know, the truth is slowly but surely emerging.
Brave people are coming forward to show you what's happening,
(14:34):
and the people with blood on their hands are scurrying.
Speaker 13 (14:38):
They are Bobby Kennedy is sort of put on the
table that it's time for us to make America healthy again.
I think it's shocking to me when you go from
the time when his uncle was president and we had
a one to three percent obesity rate and now we're
looking at anywhere from a forty to seventy percent obesity
rate depending on what group you look at. It's shocking
(15:01):
when we had a chronic disease among the American public
that might have been say, less than ten percent. And
now we're looking at chronic disease. It's the rule, not
the exception for most Americans living with chronic disease. If
we go back and try to dissect what we've done
in my fifty years as a physician or forty five
(15:23):
years as a physician, is we've progressively built a disease system.
We've not built a health system. Kennedy believes we can
make America healthy again. I'm obviously committed to helping him
accomplish that.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
As a physician.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Nothing could be more exciting than to flip this switch
from a disease system and the Senators hit a number
of it. That's what we have right now. We have
a disease system. We pay for illness. Everything's stare for
as long as you're sick. The system works. We need
to flip which and and and have a health system
(16:03):
so that we pay for wellness. And I think that
to me is what's really exciting and it's doable.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Michael Verry Joe a Houston in Dallas story has blown
up to become a national story, although I haven't seen
it talked about of late it. I think the reason
this story got so much attention. Certainly, why it cost
(16:39):
caused caught my attention was the first of all, the
utter senselessness of it all, and secondly, how beautiful the
woman who was shot and killed was. You remember the
details the woman and her boyfriend and they were in
Dallas and she's blond hair, blue out, I don't know
(17:02):
what her boyfriend looks like. He gets hit but doesn't die.
She dies all because of who knows we're about to
find out. And this black guy gets out of Mercedes
and just blasts I mean, we've got to learn some
better dispute resolution techniques. You see this Galveston cruise line,
people going crazy, just crazy over stupid stuff, and they
(17:28):
film it, stomping people's heads. This kid gets stabbed at
the track meet. Now now there's video of that same
kid that stabbed him in the heart. The same kid
at a basketball game not long before that. A kid
falls on the ground and this guy goes up and
stops his head into the I mean, what's going through
(17:51):
people's minds? How do you recover from losing a family
member so senselessly? We're all going to die, but how
do you recover when it's completely senseless? I've said this
before I can handle a car accident. I understand the
cost of doing busins. We're going to be in cars.
We're going to die, Okay, I got that. We're going
to die of diseases. We're gonna die of accidents. But this,
(18:14):
I just I can't. I can't. I just can't. So
you know, we're going to have a conversation and then
we're going to go home. We're going to go to bed,
and the family of this young lady Ashley, twenty years
(18:37):
from now we will forget her name, and you'll forget
this conversation and they will still be living with this
and that makes me damn near crazy.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Her brother's name is Kevin Marsalis, and he has been
kind enough to come on the show and talk about
this story. Kevin, welcome to the program.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Little Michael.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Can you are you in Houston?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I am. I am.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Most of the family is from Fort Bend County, so
welcome in the area.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
And as I understand it, Ashley was a realtor and
she was at a real estate convention with two friends,
met up with other friends and they started networking as
realtors do. Can you take the story from there and
and take your time and give us the details.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Sure, So she met some some realtors out of Dallas
a few months ago, and she was going back up
there to to network with them, go out with them.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
She had some friends.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
In one correction, the guy that she was with that
was hit was not our boyfriend. He was just a friend.
So they they were out on the town. Our understanding
was the restaurant was closing. They were leaving her in
(19:59):
the This guy were walking across the street and a
Mercedes passed by pretty close to him, and it sounds
like the guy she was with bumped into it or
brushed up against the car, and the car stopped. Passenger
(20:20):
got out and started shooting. When he did, my sister
was hit somewhere in the shoulder region, and from what
we know, the other person was hit in the leg.
So my mother got the phone call around two thirty
(20:45):
in the morning. She scrambled to get up and her
and my sister fiance started to drive to Dallas, and
about thirty forty minutes later, they got the call from
the detective that she didn't make it.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
So, you know, they made it up to Dallas.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Ashley's father lives father and stepmom lives west of Dallas
and Alito Uh He was in Louisiana working, so they
were both about three to four hours away when they
got the news, trying to make the drive to the
police station. At that point, they originally thought they were
(21:33):
going to be going.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
To the hospital, but then.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
It became, you know, a situation where they had to
go to the police station and.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Gather all the details.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
You know, as as a family, we we were just
trying to wrap our heads around it because to hear
that she was shot just made no sense. You know,
she was kind hearted, always loving to everybody, So you
just can't understand how somebody that kind would we just
(22:06):
get shot, you know, in the street.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
So, you know, the details after the fact were.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
The police had plenty of video surveillance from the area
of businesses, so they knew very quickly who the person
was that.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
Had shot He.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
He got a lawyer and called him that day and said,
you know, I was the passenger in this car, and
I mentioned that he was trying to get financial stuff
together before he turned himself in.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
And then he didn't turn himself in, And the only
thing that we can guess is maybe he didn't know
that she had passed away before he called UH, and
so he was. He was on the run for for
two weeks. The Marshalls were looking for him, UH, and
they finally put his information out on on the news
(23:18):
on social media, and then a day or two later
he turned himself in.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
So that's where we're at today. He's he's got a
half a.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Million dollar bond right now. We're going next week because
his lawyer is wanting to go before the judge to
get that bond reduced. So we're going to meet with
the DA and and said through that hearing to to
make sure that doesn't happen.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Kendrick Finch. I believe his name to be, and I
understand he has a long criminal record. This is a
bad bad guy.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
This is not UH.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
He has a pattern of horrible decisions like this. Am
I right in your understanding?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Yes, yeah, you're right.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
He's got a long rap sheet And that's what they
told us right away, that he's a bad guy.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
So now we're we're pushing to to.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Make sure that that bond doesn't reduced. As mentioned, he
ran for two weeks, so I thought was is that
he could run again.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Yeah, he will.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
The whole reason for a bond is for him to
get out and run again or go kill other people.
Whole just a moment. Kevin Marcellus is our guest. Sister
was murdered in Dallas a few weeks ago, and unfortunately
this is happening far too often.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
State Time.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
Ramon the King of Ding and this other guy, Michael Barry.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
These are the kind of guy you like to smacking air.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Kevin Marcellis's start guest. His sister Ashley was realtor at
a real estate convention in Dallas on April fifth, which
she was murdered by a turd thug with a long
criminal record. It's not in any way out of character
for him, and on May seventh, his lawyer will appeal
for his five hundred thousand dollars bond to be reduced.
(25:23):
Little reminder, I know you folks know this, but a
bond is just a surety. It's collateral to ensure that
you show up to court when the case comes. So
the way a bond is set is supposedly to give
you a disincentive to flee. And you will put up
(25:43):
ten percent of the number that when you hear someone
has a million dollar bond. They have to put up
one hundred thousand dollars. Twenty thousand dollars bond is just
two thousand dollars. Now, there is something called the recognizance
bonds bond, which you can literally just it's you sign
your name, good for it, and these are too often
used with Soros district attorneys. You're basically just telling the
(26:05):
guy pinky square, you'll come back. Yeah, Well he's got
blood all over him from just having murdered somebody. Why
would you ever trust that guy. So anyway, the point
of the bond is the bail bondsman keeps the ten
percent if you show up. If you don't, he's on
the hook for it. So guess what he does. We
just outsource the oversight of people who are accused and
(26:26):
not yet tried. Because you put a financial incentive on
a bail bondsman. He's going to know where this guy is,
and he's going to know who all his family members are,
and he's probably going to make them pledge their house
and their cars and all that. So he's going to
ensure the guy gets to court. That's the way this works. Ideally,
that's what will happen because he doesn't want to cough
up that five hundred thousand dollars. Well, this guy doesn't
(26:47):
need a bond because he's a bad person. And he
murdered somebody and then he said he would turn himself
in and then he went on the run. And he's
shown a pattern of bad behaviors. And I'm hoping we'll
bring enough attention to this that they don't lower the bond. Kevin,
let me ask you, what was your first thought? I
(27:09):
read you got to call at two thirty to see
April fifth. Your mom, Michelle Longer, received a call a
little after two thirty from your sister, Ashley's friend. Okay,
so Ashley's been killed, letting her know that Ashley had
been shot and that they had performed CPR until paramedics arrived.
My mother and Ashley's fiance, Jacob, took off for Dallas,
(27:30):
as we all live in Fort Bene County. A little
after three am, we received a call from the detective
letting her know that Ashley had passed from the wounds
from this thug herd. She was only twenty eight years old.
What was your first thought when you when you got
this news.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I would have believed any other thing that you could
have called and told me.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Outside of that, I just sort of thing. You know,
you hear about it than the news, and you.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Think it's you know, people doing something wrong or hanging
out with the wrong people. You never would think that
somebody just hanging out with friends, you know, crossing the
street in Dallas and someone you love, whatever has happened
to him. This is so outside, you know, the pale
(28:26):
of what you would expect. And our father said it,
Bessie said, you know, it's just like a nightmare you
can't wake up from. You know, every day you wake
up and hope it it's not real, and.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
Then you realize it is.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
So it's it's still hard to believe.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
And it's been almost a month.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
I hope they don't lower the bond. I hope they
put him away. I hope he never sees a light
of day. I hope he has a miserable time in prison,
and I hope he's haunted with regret. Now that being done,
let's celebrate the life of your sister, Ashley. Tell me
what kind of person she.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
Was she somebody said it best at the service. They
said she she was always the life.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Of the party.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
But she never wanted to be the center of attention.
So she wanted everybody to have fun, but she never
wanted to be the center of attention. She I never
you know, she was much younger than me, we had
a fifteen year difference. But we never had a cross word.
I never heard her say a negative thing about anybody.
(29:35):
And you know, had this thug, you know, gone to
her and asked her for a meal or you know,
to buy them some clothes or anything. She would have
done anything, you know, because she just she she.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Didn't see bad in anybody.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
She she you know, every stray animal she came across,
she she wanted to take it in, and every person
she just saw the good in them. So it's just,
you know, we're feeling it right now.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
But you know the world's gonna.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Miss her going forward because she she she didn't have
a bath on anybody.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Did you learn anything from this? Are you a different person?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
In a way?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
That is remarkable? I find that when we go through
awful things like this, we change, and maybe not for
the better, but we change in a way that that
it opens a door to us to an awareness, to
an awakening, to an experience, to a knowledge, maybe not.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
But yeah, you know, Michael, you said it in the beginning,
you expect or you know, you know that you're going
to lose.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Loved ones due to due to.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Illness or car accidents, and you know, you you lose them,
and you grieve.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
And you work through that. The thing that you know,
I've kind of learned is when it's it's.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Somebody else that that decided to make a decision.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
With no morals.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
And and you know, took someone you love, it's a
whole nother level of grief because.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
You know, there's you get over the grief of losing.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Them, and then you got to deal with you know,
sitting through bond hearings for instance, that's something that you
know you don't ever expect to do, especially being a
law abiding citizen. And then after that comes a trial.
So it's just a whole nother thing that that you
have to you know, plan to deal with and be
(31:38):
there for Mom.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Because you know, this was this was their best friend.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
You know, they hung out every weekend, they went shopping,
and so to lose hers is like you know her,
you know, her favorite person. So it it's tough, you know,
it teaches you to to value every day teaches.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
You to, you know, not take anything for.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Granted, and love on everyone every chance you get, because
you never know.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Keven, I talked for a living. I wish there was
something I could say to bring Ashley Renee Long back
to you and your family.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
I know.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Y'all are hurting. The finality, the shock, the sense of loss,
the sense of missed moments in the future. It's just tough.
I mean, there's just no way around this, and my
(32:40):
heart hurts for you and your entire family. Thank you
for being willing to share this story. This is why, folks,
we have to serve on jury's, This is why we
have to vote for the district attorneys. This is why
maybe this case couldn't have been stopped at that moment,
but it could have been stopped. We build cages for
(33:00):
people like this guy, and that's where he belonged, in
a cage around other animals just like him, not hurting
people who were doing good for the rest of society. Kevin,
thank you for being willing to share your story.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Sir Christians, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Lay Man ils nights night for good lad Thank you
and good night
