everybody remembers that song, Paul, You remember that song Field?

Speaker 1 (00:07):
By the way, that song was the top forty hit.
It was number four in Billboard's Top one hundred back
in nineteen seventy seven.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I know we talked about it. We're not going to
talk fully about this. But if you look who'sassed away
kind of from Eras, you know, the Hulk Hogan and.
Speaker 3 (00:19):

Speaker 2 (00:21):
From Ozzy Osbourne. If you kind of look at these
errors the seventies, the eighties, nineties with these that had
passed away, and then I guess with Connie Francis, that's
the fifties, right.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Uh yeah, yeah, fifties and sixties had.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
A different error. Some really well yeah, I'm celebrities. Well,
I'm glad, you know, thanks for bringing it up. I mean,
I know, the conveyor belt of life is moving a
little quicker than I like right now. Yeah, I remember
the seventies.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Still a young man j two right, okay, yeah, and
that's five by the way, So if you're on a
bus where it happens in threes, there's one seat still.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I mentioned Keith Richards. Possibly he's boy. He's dodged a
bull of how many times. I don't know what's keeping
him going formaldehyde. He's the only guy I know they
can walk around with full body of formaldehyde. Maybe that's
worth it, all right. I want to talk to you
and get your thoughts on what's happening in bib County.
I just had the Attorney General on last hour, Steve Marshall,
(01:14):
talking about how horrific this one is and how dark
and deep it seems to get.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
You know, every day there's something.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
New about the victims, the people that are involved in this,
and how many there are Paula, I mean.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
This is horrific. One of the worst things I've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Let me take this back down to Montgomery, where we
have people in Montgomery advocating saying we don't need imprisonment
and every person can be rehabilitated. That's not true, by
the way, And then you have a case like this
to say, how how can people be rehabilitated? How should
people to be able to back and walk on the
(01:54):
streets When you see a situation like this, and that's
what we're fighting in this state the city and say
some people can never leave prison because of what the
crimes they have committed. But that's the fight we've got
going on in the state of Alabama right now.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Believe it or well.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Number One, there's study after study that psychiatrists, all kinds
of experts have looked at when it comes to pedophilia,
and pedophiles cannot be rehabilitated. It is part of their sick,
twisted evil DNA. So that take that off the table.
Second of all, as I was talking with Steve about
more introduction of legislation to change what happens with people
(02:32):
that commit crimes like this towards children.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
If you commit a felony.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Sex act on a child, the death penalty should be
on the table.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
These kids are ages three.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
To ten years old, and I understand there as a
teenager in there, and I think there's probably going to
be more victims now. But if you're doing and in
the mother of one of the children was letting men
come do.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Do this with their own kid.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
This is one of most horrific cases of heard in
the state Balabama. We've had some bad but this is
absolutely and every day the more that comes out about this,
and so you've got to look across the board. Anybody
involved in this has to be prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law. Well and Candiley not see another day.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
The sheriff down there and Jodie Wade soon did a
great job and getting it into the bottom of this.
I understand Steve mentioned that there may be some federal
involvement in this as well. I don't know what makes
that decision or what happens or how that decision is.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Human traffic across state.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Lines there you go, Okay, then.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
You could see some federal involvement.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
It's just it's just awful. Would you support legislation for
death penalty in.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Absolutely and as a matter of fact, with what's going
on here with this other situation with DHR, I know
we were hurry about that. Yeah, you know, I would
want the state leaders to call convene a special session,
take a look at what's going on with DHR, with
this poor child that died in the hut in the carrs,
(04:00):
what's happened here with the human trafficking and addresses Let's
not wait until that's January to address these issues.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
You know, DHR they are strapped. They are in over
their heads with the amount of people that are there.
The staffing is low relative to the amount of need
that there is there. And you know, I'm not going
to put it all on DHR when when you know,
people come at them and attack them and say, you
guys need to do a better job. You know what,
(04:26):
The DHR is stressed to the max. And you mentioned
the kid in the hot car. I don't know how
that happens. That's horrible, but you hear about it every summer.
And then these kids that they pulled out of this
home in bib County or this shelter whatever, this bomb
you know, hole in the ground was shelter, they take
(04:46):
them and put them in DHR. I'm not sure that
DHR has the bandwidthor capabilities or the staffing to deal
with something this massive and these kids psychologic.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Situation that's going on right now.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
I'm sure there's counselors in DHR, but this is horrific.
And what happens sometimes in DHR kids get placed in
bad situations too well.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
But that agency has a mission, and that mission is
to protect children, and so we owe it to those children,
and we owe it to the state citizens to make
sure that this is being run in a manner that
protects children. So that's why you can't just say I
will look at this one case. You've got to look
across the board, across the state to prevent any other
situations from happening. And that's why I would say state
(05:35):
leaders need to specifically call together a committee. Bring folks
before the committee, ask the right questions, look across the board,
the organization, the structure, who is contracted with to make
sure this doesn't happen again.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Yeah, one hundred percent. Well, I appreciate you
