The virtual reality that social media creates, the alternative reality
it allows us to live in, really have people not
knowing what's real and what's not real. But more importantly,
it has people thinking they don't have to answer for
anything they do. Okay, it has people believe in there
is absolutely zero concept to their actions.

An interview because he wanted to get some things off
his chest. He had some things he wanted to confess. Well,
what could he have possibly wanted to confess? Well, I'm
going to tell you right now, this clip is disturbing
and may trigger you, just letting you know. I don't
know why we have to say things like that to
y'all anymore, because true crime is the number one genre
and podcasting and y'all love watching murder mysteries on Lifetime.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
But here you go. Let's go to CBS news release.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Police arrested fifty three year old Lorenz Crous in upstate
New York after he confessed to killing his parents and
then burying them in the backyard of their home eight
years ago. Officials say they were investigating why the couple
were receiving Social Security payments despite not being seen for years. Now,
Kraus sat down with Craig Floyd from our affiliate at
(02:24):
CBS six Albany, where he made the stunning confession. Did
one parent, did your mom or your dad more so
than the other, ask you to take their lives?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
They didn't explicitly say that, but they made it clear
that they were going downhill.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
When it actually happened, when your parents died. Did they
know what was happening to them?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yeah, and they knew it was at your hand, but yes, no.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
One else, So they they realized what you were doing
to them as it happened. Yes, they knew that this
was it for them. They were perishing at your hand.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Yes, and it was some quick How does she do it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I won't.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I can't talk about that. Boy.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
You just told us that, right, it was at your hand?
Were there drugs involved? There a suffocation was that you
suffocated them?
Speaker 4 (03:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Which parent did you? Did? You suffocate first.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
My father and he after he died, my mother put
her head on his chest and she was there for
a few hours, and then I finished her.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Damn, man, I know vladd is somewhere like damn. How
I missed that one? Now I got some missues to
ask about this situation. Number one, everybody is content over
everything nowadays.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Everybody okay, Because according to the news report, this guy
Lawrenz sent the two page statement the news outlets with
his phone number. So Stone Grissomed, the TV station's news director,
called him and Lorenz Cross told him he buried his
parents in his yard. Did he ask Lorenz if he
killed them? And Lorenz said, I pleaded the fifth. So
Grissom told him, I promise, I will post your statement
(04:04):
on the TV station's website if you agree to come
in for an interview in Lorenz's degrees. Can they even
checked Lorenz to make sure he was unarmed when he
was arrived. Now, they did have a playing close police
officer in the front lobby. But my question is why
didn't the TV news director report this to the police
as soon as he got the information. Why would an
interview be scheduled? Why would an interview be conducted? He
(04:26):
should have been detained and bought in for questioning as
soon as he stepped foot in that lobby. But people
put content over everything. Should he have been interviewed? Yes
by police?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Now? Albany County Assistant Public Defender Rebecca Sokel, who was
representing Loren's car cross, said he would be said she
would be looking into how the interview came about because,
in her words, if the media was essentially an agent
of police in this matter, that could raise questions about
whether lorenz comments in the interview would be legally admissible
(04:57):
at trial. Listen, I'm not about to sit here in act.
I know what any of that means legally. I just
know morally, ethically and common Sensely, if I get an
email from someone telling me they buried their parents in
the backyard, my next thought is not gonna be you
know what, let's book.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Him for the breakfast club. No, okay.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It also says a lot about the times here in
that Lorenz wanted to do an interview. I know, criminals
seeking fame for crimes is not new, but the fact
he gave this interview and thought he was just gonna
walk out and going Joyce from waffle house afterwards. Says
a lot about this era. Please let me give Lorenz
Cross the biggest he hull.

we're gonna go to the chat off this one. So
we're asking eight hundred five eighty five, one on five,
when Bad Bunny is performing at the super Bowl this year,
how do you feel about it?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
People are upset.
Speaker 7 (08:06):
They say he performs primarily in Spanish, and some people
say that they're not going to understand what he's saying.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
They're saying people a lot.

Of people are saying that they're saying that are they
wearing jackets?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Are these people?
Speaker 7 (08:19):
And they're also saying because Bad Bunny is so outspoken,
a critic of Donald Trump, and he's been vocal about
an advocate for a LATINX rights and what artists.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
They get that wouldn't be out spoken to Donald Trump
that is talking about?
Speaker 7 (08:33):
Is the question eight hundred and five eight five one
o five one. People are saying that, you know, the
football league is twenty percent I think less than twenty
percent Latin the people that actually play in the league,
and they're saying that they're not going to know what
Bad Bunny is saying.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
But that's why you're gonna bring out John That's what
they're saying. He's gonna bring out some other people.
Speaker 7 (08:51):
They're saying that he's not performing in English, and that's
the problem. I don't care because because you're a Milligan,
no music is a vibe.

A little bit turns, a little bit. Is so happy
about that? You just want to find you? This will
take you. I definitely don't want to hear that. That's
