What happened on Friday?
Speaker 2 (01:13):
They responded with, hey, can you just Google mapsit and
show us where you think it is? And then it
was kind of left at that, and then about a
half hour later, an hour later, they showed up at
my door.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
So you told them the location where you saw the body.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Correct, And they they went so they you didn't go
with them to find the body?
Speaker 2 (01:41):
No, no, no, well I went with them to the
Frederick Police Department. I sat in a investigation room for numerous,
numerous minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
So after after you gave them the info, about a
half hour later, the fred Drick Police Department showed up.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
At your house.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
That they did. And what happened when they got to
two wonderful two wonderful officers Smith and A bed.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Right, and they took they took you to the police station. Yep,
in the police car.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
H huh uh.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
And when you got there, you went into the like.
They didn't read you like Miranda rights and everything, did they?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
No? No, no, they were just detaining me for a investigation,
which I knew was I was fine with it and
to bam, here we are today.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Didn't I'm going to ask you a question which I'm
assuming they asked you in the investigation room. Okay, all right,
and I'm asking on behalf of ninety nine percent of
the people who have read.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
It, did you have any I know it was entertaining
to hear all the silliness that people claimed this and
claim that or think this and think that it was
way innocent.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
You had nothing to do with that body being dead, zero.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Zero percent. But I could. Here's the details most people
should know. I was helping somebody that was down on
their luck to find the place to rest their head in,
which meant a campsite. I knew about some cent cities,
(03:44):
and so I explored them, and I came across what
I started calling Teddy, Teddy tombstone. And I didn't know Teddy.
I didn't know he was there, but whatever, I went
past his campsite and boom, Teddy was there. And you
saw the pictures, and uh, they did identify them. They
(04:08):
know who Well, there was a social Security card and
an idea of some type. Do they know who who
he was?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Who Teddy? The guy that the guy that you called Teddy?
You they know who he is?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, his name's Andrew.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
But uh, and what is the what.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Is the So I just because I don't want to
get too far away from his comment, I didn't see
the photos.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
The Hey, so they they took your phone, they took
your computer. After after you finished being questioned in at
the police department, the officers drove you back to your house.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Let's say this. They showed up at my door. I
went out to speak with him. They asked to see
my phone, which was inside. I said no, and then
so they detained me, took me down to the headquarters.
(05:12):
They were grabbing a a search warrant to come into
my home and grab my phone in my laptop, and
they did. Took them four or five hours. There's nothing
on there other than the pictures that I sent Diane.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Right, Tyler, did you want to hide that part again?
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Daniel Force got covered.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
And so you know, go ahead, go ahead. Joseph.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I'll say this was entertaining. I was watching some football
game and the news came on and some blondhaired woman
was boohooing about Joseph and Frederick finding a dead body.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
You've been on a lot of news stations. You have
been on a lot of news stations.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I'll say this. On my way home, when the Johnny
Law was giving me a ride back to my place,
I said, I don't know if I made an idiot
out of myself or not. She says, no, I think
you're going viral.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Oh, very good, very good.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
And then then then I listened back to your conversation
you're you're, you're you and ies conversation, and uh, I
found it entertaining. I'm a easy going, fun loving person.
And uh the reason why I didn't report it right
away was because I had a friend camping nearby, and
(06:39):
I didn't want them run out.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
That your friend was was kind of camping there.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Who plane you were afraid that if you would have,
if you would have called the police and said you
saw Teddy tombstone, if you will, that they would have
gone in and made everybody move, including your friend that
you were trying to help.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Correct, I get that. That makes sense, total sense.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
You know, I care for this other person. I'm not
gonna get them run out.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
So were you Have you been cleared of everything?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Like the I know you said you don't have your
phone in computer back, but have you have you been
cleared like Frederick? The Frederick police don't think that you're
involved at all.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Well, here's the funny. As I read once I got back,
they left the search warrant information on my coffee table,
and it stated investigation per second degree murder, first degree assault,
and consial concealing a dead body. What that's not me?
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Wait, so you're being you're being investigated for second degree murder.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
That's what the warrant to come into my house stated,
to get my phone and my computer.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
So where do where?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Where does everything? Where does everything stand? In terms of you?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
What did they tell you? They dropped they dropped you
off and said what to you? But peace.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
See you?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
And that's it. But no, you have no idea when
you when you.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Get your and it's I'm as I'm as innocent as
can be. All I was doing was helping a friend
and then I got caught up in all this because
you mentioned Drake may or whoever.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Don't blame me.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
His motivation for the call was Drake may saw the
dead bite.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Don't blame me, blame that's you.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Well, maybe let's go fifty to fifty.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
It's sort of like how your episode with the cart
was Wegmans, but also yours a little bit.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
All right, very good? So so now so.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
To wrap it up.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Wait, no, no, I have a couple of questions. Any
any more strange dreams? Any more strange dreams recently?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Well, the dream was because the dream was I called
nine one one instead of calling nine one one when
I should have called the non emergency number.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
That was your dream.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Yeah, I was going to report it at some point, right,
but that just inspired me or whatever.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
I got you? I got you. No dream since then, nope, nope,
free and clear.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
All right. Well I've had dreams, but they're they're there.
You go closer than yeah, yeah, I got you?
Speaker 3 (09:58):
All right, very good. Do we have any something else
for Joseph.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
No, I'll just see up at the boats on Carrol Creek?
Speaker 3 (10:05):
All right, So Joseph listen the.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Too.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
So as far as far as everybody.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Is concerned, Elliott, it is concluded. I'm free and clear, excellent.
They just are hanging on to my phone and computer. Whatever?
Can I ask you?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Is there anything?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Was there anything like when they when they were like,
we're taking your phone and computer in your in your
mind where you like, oh no, like is there anything
on there that you're going to get in trouble for?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
No? But I did tell Officer Smith an officer a
Bid that you probably don't want to look at the
triple excess.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
There you go, all right? And what did they say?
We know you listen Elliott?
Speaker 4 (10:51):
It makes sense?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
All right?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Very good, very good. Joseph.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
All right?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
If anything else, all right, very good? If anything else
comes up. You let me know, all right, brother peace Peace.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Eric wanted you to invite him to Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Can I can I ask a question though, just to
clarify something, Just to clarify something. And it sounds like
he's free and clear. And if if the Frederick police
want to want to tell me differently, please do when
when on the search warn't when it says that it's
for second degree murder, concealment of a dead body and stuff?
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Is that do they?
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Is that what they have to say in order to
be able to get a warning? I don't think they're
by the way, I'm not accusing them of embellishing anything,
but at that point, they don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
They want to be able to get the information. All
they know is that they have the guy. By the way.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
The best part of all that they were able to
identify the body. That's great. And hopefully hopefully they've reached
the family.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
That's great.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
And uh, Dirk just pointing out that it was a
mac Jones who saw the body and the Drake.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
May yeah, well, hopefully they won't make fun of us
on the news reports.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
You know what, though I was keeping track, you didn't
say dude once?
Speaker 3 (12:23):
