And police were chasing down three men from that hit
and run, and they followed one of the purpse into
into a backyard and then that's where police say they
came face to face with Gillian Shriner. She was one
of the three men no, she was not. She was
sitting on her porch. Unrelated, we think, we don't know, unrelated,
(01:17):
we think holding a nine millimeter And police say they
ordered her to drop the gun numerous times, and she
refused to and then pointed it directly at them. Then
one officer opened fire hit her in the shoulder. There's
some footage from the news channel in California KTLA of her,
you know, just kind of hurt and then she falls
(01:39):
down on the sidewalk and then is like, you know,
I'm give up. I give up here, laid face down
the ground. They arrest her. She is out of jail now,
one million bond paid. That she's loose. Now she is

Speaker 3 (02:27):
I can't comment on that, you guys.
Speaker 2 (02:28):

Oh? Yeah, of course? And is she doing okay? She recovered,
She's all right.
Speaker 3 (02:33):

Speaker 2 (02:34):
She badly injured on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
How are you feeling? How?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I know?
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
They'll still be there all right? Well, thank you so much.
They're headlining Saturday night at Coachello this weekend.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
See you there, guys, dude, see it. Coachella is a
great way to get the media out.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Out the tail.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
So I want to make sure I understand this.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Maybe they're not headlining, let me check that for Green
Days a Green Day, but they're playing.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
Yeah so and by the way, so we saw Weezer
when they came into town six months ago whenever that was.
And he's the most haggard looking of the crew. He's
the guy that looks like the person most likely to
have a wife that would shoot somebody. You're saying that
the police were chasing a hit and run three men
(03:23):
that were involved in a hit and run. Yeah, like
they ran over a person. The car may probably hit
a car and run away, okay, car wreck Okay, Yeah.
And then they got out of the car and started
scattering and in different directions.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Well you know how these police chases work in those
little tight think of that about that one episode of Euphoria,
whereas in Days Run does the tight houses very close
to each other? Right? And you see a lot of
that alleys.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
And and so that one of the guys they're chasing
runs into the backyard of Weezer, of the bass player
of Weezer, where his wife.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Is sitting back there with a gun.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Yeah, so the attempted murder is the attempted of who.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Well, that's the thing if she's refusing to put the
gun down.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
So the police yeah, okay, because but this is we are.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Waiting to find out more. But did she think those
guys were breaking in her house? Well, the record, what is.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
She supposed to think if she's on if she's not
involved in the hitt run, and all of a sudden
there's people running into her backyard, how does she know
that they're really police or who they are?
Speaker 3 (04:26):
So have you seen footage of the police running into
the backyard.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I've not seen that, okay, have you?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
No?
Speaker 4 (04:31):
No, no, And what I'm curious about is was she
just sitting on her back porch holding a nine millimeter
I mean, there's it's a really insane scenario. It is
because when you first see the headline, you're like, oh,
who did she try to kill? Well, she tried to
kill the people running into her backyard, apparently.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I'll tell you what. Once you catch a visual of her,
you can kind of see where she might be kind
of a Missus Smith type. Come on, because she's hot,
she's got a tattoo sleeve. That is me. Well. She
wrote a book in twenty ten that was the best
Seller's a memoir where she moved to this this little
suburb in New Jersey and competed with forty other women
(05:11):
for the love of a rich prince.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
What respect do you wish I was that prince?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
This is something back in the nineties.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
What's the name of this gal?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
A Jillian Shriner, whether J.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Or G A J.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I just googled wife of Weezer. Basis that that works out,
I'll do it. Jillian Lauren is also I guess her
her maiden name?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
She still got her fastball.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Yeah, she does look like a bad ass. She does.
She's and I'm just thinking musician lifestyle here. Weezer tours
all the time.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
But you're saying because she has a tattoo sleeve, she's
a bad person, Kevin.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
No, no, no, I think she's capable of like being
more independent.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
She's tall, because this was far and away the tallest
dude in Weezer, and she's pretty close to his height,
like just a couple of inches shorter.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I think this is the whole thing about though, too Okay,
at least said this is what happened. You assume that's
exactly what happened, But I would like to know whether
there aren't more details on this. It's very Yeah, it's
too weird for there not to be more the story.
Clearly they shot at her because she refused to put
(06:15):
her gun down, you know.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Yeah, So I mean anytime, I don't care what the
cops are doing, it sucks that they It sucks that
the cops would run into your backyard because a guy
involved in a hit and run ran into your backyard.
But it's also without knowing the timing of it all,
it seems like this guy was sitting on her back
porch with a nine millimeter.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Or she just had it on her and having a smoke,
and all of a sudden, there's ruckets in her backyard,
so she draws on them.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
One tiny thing to clean up. It was a neighboring
yard that she was in, so they saw the purp
and one yard and she was in the neighboring yard.
But still those yards are right by each.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Other her yard, so they weren't even in her yard.
They decided to get in her yard.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
No, they were in the other yard, Yeah, right by
because they saw the guy in that yard. Yeah, but
and now she's outside. Look, maybe they thought she was
helping those guys, and maybe she was.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Yeah, how would she be helping the hit and run
guys that are just running from the police.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I meant she was trying to help the police by
shooting those guys. Yeah, but she would have put the
gun down when the cops put your gun down. I
don't know. I hope there's more to report on this
in the weekday update at five fourteen. I look forward
to that, But if there's not, you know, that's the
end of it. Great, all right, thank you very much,
Thank you Kevin, thank you. It might be the last
we ever.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
