| You know, nobody ever asks me any fun questions in interviews. | |
| They're always gotcha interviews. | |
| How are we going to take down Candace Owens? | |
| I'm going to ask myself a fun question. | |
| Candace, do you have any regrets in politics, any stances you've taken that have radically shifted? | |
| Yes, I'm so glad you asked that, Candace. | |
| My biggest regret, you guys, and I'm not kidding, is that I supported the criminal justice reform bill under Trump, and I will tell you why I did that. | |
| I'm going to be completely honest. | |
| I was very green. | |
| At that time, which is just a way of saying that I was very new to politics. | |
| Everything was exploding in my face, and I had never imagined that it would inspire so much hatred towards me, especially regarding the black community. | |
| And I was being called somebody that was anti-black and hateful, so I already had that. | |
| You know, imprinted on my mind that this is awful, that I'm being smeared this way, and I don't feel this way. | |
| But then the other element of it is that when this was pitched to me—the person that pitched it to me, by the way, was Jared Kushner—and I should have done my own research, so this is no excuse, but he just gave me the highlights. | |
| Oh, this bill's going to be great. | |
| You know, this is really about trying to reduce recidivism. | |
| We're really trying to make it clear that when people leave prison, they have to have | |
| a pathway, you know, get jobs that will help them be able to restart their lives so that | |
| they don't end up back in prison because they're desperate. | |
| Like, that was sort of the pitch. | |
| Again, I should have done my own research and I should have read what was in the bill. | |
| And if I had, I would not have supported it. | |
| So I just want to own that. | |
| I was completely wrong. | |
| And one of the things that made me wake up to that is because one young woman who basically | |
| had her sentence commuted due to this bill, I met her and she's a complete and utter psychopath. | |
| And she's probably going to end up back in prison. | |
| And then I read it, and I was like, actually, you know, sometimes people should just be in prison because they're crazy. | |
| Anyways, I'm saying all of this to tell you this unbelievable story. | |
| So there's this ex-con who is friends with the woke New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and obviously they are pro-criminal justice reform. | |
| And he somehow landed an appearance on Joe Rogan last month. | |
| He told a very, you know, appealing story about how much he's learned and how grateful he is to be walking the streets again. | |
| Take a listen. | |
| To Sheldon Johnson, a criminal justice reform advocate. | |
| It was at that moment where I really said, I have to change my life. | |
| I have to change my life. | |
| I just can't do this. | |
| I had a wife. | |
| I had family still. | |
| My son was growing up. | |
| He was hearing stories about my so-called notoriety and I just didn't want to be that dad. | |
| Like, I really was looking at myself and really evaluating, asking myself, like, yo, what the f*** are you doing? | |
| I was still smoking a lot of weed at the time. | |
| I was drinking Jailhouse Hooch. | |
| And I was at my worst. | |
| And I had to figure out how to get to my best. | |
| So it pulls at your heartstrings. | |
| You're like, man, I want him smoking that jailhouse hooch or drinking that jailhouse hooch. | |
| I want him to have something better. | |
| So to be clear, he was sentenced for 50 years for two violent robberies, but his sentence was commuted. | |
| He only spent 25 years in prison. | |
| What you're hearing there sounds like a man who most certainly had change, and the purpose of whoever got him on Joe Rogan landing him that appearance is to make everybody go, oh, no, people can change. | |
| Except, as I asked, what if they can't? | |
| What if we're actually getting it right when we jail somebody because of two violent robberies? | |
| What if the mistake is being made in having our heartstrings pulled out? | |
| And I think that would be kind of the moral of the story when you look at all of America today. | |
| We feel bad for the illegal aliens. | |
| Oh, no, they've killed someone. | |
| Oh, they killed somebody again. | |
| Oh, they want free money. | |
| They want you to go to work so they can get more free. | |
| Maybe we should just stop caring so much as a society. | |
| And you know who is definitely now going to substantiate that plausibility that we should just stop caring? | |
| Well, the man that you just heard, Sheldon Johnson, 48 years old. | |
| He has been arrested again and charged. | |
| Guess why? | |
| He dismembered a body, allegedly. | |
| Of course, he still has to go through the court system. | |
| He has allegedly dismembered a person. | |
| There was a body that was found in a bin and a head that was stashed in a freezer belonging | |
| to a victim named Colin Small, who is 44 years old. | |
| Now why did they charge him and not somebody else? | |
| Well, they looked at some surveillance footage, which showed him transporting a large number | |
| of bags to and from an apartment. | |
| And the building's super had speculated that he was hiding something, not your average thing to just be transporting a large amount of bags back and forth. | |
| Neighbors then allegedly told investigators that they heard a victim pleading for his life before two shots came from the apartment. | |
| At least, that is what those sources told the New York Post. | |
| Before the grisly discovery, he was spotted in surveillance images appearing to disguise himself in a blonde wig. | |
| and transporting large boxes and trash bags. | |
| So he has now been charged with murder, manslaughter, and weapon possession. | |
| So, again, this is allegedly what likely happened is he got into an argument with somebody. | |
| He was not so reformed as people had hoped. | |
| And upon that argument, a man pleaded with him. | |
| He shot him anyways, and then said, you know what? | |
| This is probably not going to be good for criminal justice reform, especially my job as a criminal justice reform advocate. | |
| So what am I going to do with the body? | |
| I'm going to put on a blonde wig, and I'm going to dispose of it. | |
| And I'm going to dismember it so that people don't see me carrying out, you know, a full body. | |
| I'm going to put it into bags and boxes and get rid of it. | |
| It's allegedly, plausibly what happened, but we will find out. | |
| Again, my biggest regret is standing in line with criminal justice reform without having read thoroughly what was actually being proposed. | |
| Maybe if I hadn't supported it, that man would not have ever been walking the streets and given the opportunity to commit another crime. | |
| Hey guys, if you liked this video, you will definitely like the full episode even better. |
