Fed Reacts To Undercover Cop & Doctor Testify In Trial!
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
And we are live.
What's up?
Sorry, guys.
I still haven't slept yet.
We're live.
What's up?
Welcome to Fed Reacts.
As you guys know, the Melly trial is underway live right now.
So, what I'm going to do without further ado is start pulling it up on screen and we're going to start reacting to it just to give you guys an update of what the hell is going on here.
Right now, the defense is cross-examining, okay, the prosecution's witness who is an undercover Bear County Sheriff's Deputy that does narcotics and gang investigations, narcotics, firearms, and gang investigations.
There was a little bit of controversy because he wore a mask, if I'm not mistaken, on the first day that he testified.
But now, I believe he's unmasked.
But what's going on now is they just are just not showing his face.
So, yeah, you know, rare situation on Fed Reacts.
You guys know I normally don't do live streams in the middle of the day or in a morning like this, but obviously it's a trial.
Let's go ahead and react to this thing live.
Let's get into it.
The shit I did that also means for the hens I killed 4:30 a.m.
Never say when.
Correct.
I want to play this now for you.
No regrets for the shit I did that also moved for the niggas I had.
Never saved me.
Is that identical to you?
Okay.
Well, actually, he doesn't say the word kill.
He uses a gesture for that.
Don't play the game.
No revenge for the shit I did.
That's awesome for the niggas I've never seen.
Flip screen, Mr. Howard.
Okay, you heard that?
Yeah, I'm here.
Like I said, I can't memorize the lyrics.
No, no, no, that's fine.
I just want to see it side by side.
Okay.
I'm not trying to be difficult.
No, no, no, you're not.
It's my fault.
You say the wrong thing, I better teach them.
I don't want you to do that.
No revenge for the shit I did.
that also moved for the niggas out.
Damn, never seen women.
Except for leaving out killed and the word gangster.
Okay.
Yesterday, Ms. Bradley said, Did you hear them say both of them yesterday when she said that?
Yeah, now that I'm listening, so no.
You don't hear that?
No.
Okay.
So you didn't help her decipher that before, did you?
No, sir.
Okay.
It's identical, except for the gesture in place of the word k.
Correct.
the the defense would like to move in uh defendants exhibit c for identification without objection thank you seven more that is c is that right Identification will be admitted to.
Free or is there somebody else in evidence by the defense?
Mark for exhibits or for evidence?
What will be your fence one?
Excuse me.
Excuse me?
Yeah.
Okay.
thank you okay
so you're telling us you didn't assist the state in the conclusion that it says both of them No, sir.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
We were also speaking yesterday about the fact that Malley was largely unresponsive to many of the overtures that were being made, the attempts to recruit him, right?
I think he was already recruited, but the like, yeah, what you're saying is he wasn't responding to the people that were messaging him.
Okay, with other organizations.
Okay.
And I had gone through a list of or a demonstration of several messages that were not being responded to.
Right?
And I think I asked you later.
All right, for some of you guys that just joined that might be confused.
What the hell is going on here with the screen screen?
What's basically going on, guys, is there was a witness for the state, right?
And I'm sorry for those of you that already heard this, but as people keep piling in, I'm going to keep repeating it just so people kind of know what the hell's going on here.
As you guys know, the state produced a witness who is a Bear County Sheriff's Office undercover detective that participates in narcotics, gang, and firearms investigations.
The first day he testified, he basically had a mask on, right, for fear of his family.
I think now the mask is off, but they're not showing his face.
He's been testifying as a subject matter expert or as an SME and gang culture.
And in this particular instance, the G-Shine Bloods.
Okay.
Now, you guys are probably wondering why the hell is this relevant, Myron?
The reason why this is relevant, guys, is because, and I'll pull this up on the screen here.
They still got this weird green screen here.
I'll keep letting it play, right?
While I have it muted so I can explain to you guys what's going on here.
The reason why this is relevant, guys, is because the state of Florida is trying to seek the death penalty against Melly.
And one of the main circumstances that needs to be proven for them to get the death penalty successfully is they need to establish that he is in fact a gang member, which is why the state's been waiting.
I don't want to say wasting so much time.
This is why the state's been expending quite a bit of time and resources to prove this, okay?
Because they know that if they're not able to prove him as a gang member, they will not be able to pursue the death penalty according to Florida law.
So they have this sheriff's deputy who's well versed in the G-Shine set in particular of the bloods to testify.
And they're breaking down text messages and conversation between Melly and other known gang members and their affiliates.
They're citing vernacular using text messages, slang, hierarchies, drug trafficking, firearms, etc.
They're going over all of this.
So the prosecution had their witness on direct.
And when you're on direct, it means you are being questioned by the side that brought you on.
So in this case, the prosecution brought him on.
They're asking him questions.
That's direct.
What you guys are about to hear now is cross-examination, which is when the opposing side now, just as the name infers, examines you from a cross standpoint.
They're basically asking you questions and grilling you and trying to essentially break down your credibility, catch you in lies, make you look foolish so that they tarnish your credibility on the stand.
That's what cross-examination is for.
Your job is to tarnish the credibility of the opposing side's witness that they bring on.
And that's what you guys are about to hear here with the defense attorney questioning this detective.
Okay.
And my estimate is he's going to do things to show that Melly isn't actually a part of the gang.
I know there was some discussion yesterday where Melly had basically, one of the top guys of this set, G-Shine Bloods, or the Bloods in general, had wanted to get a hold of Melly, maybe for some type of recruitment purposes, et cetera, but he did not respond.
But the sheriff's deputy has been responding pretty much saying, well, look, Melly hasn't really got pressed like other fake bloods in the South Florida area.
And he actually mentioned the Island Boys here for false flagging, right?
And he said that Melly isn't getting pressed for false flagging, which means that he is in fact a member of the gang and in good standing.
So let's go back to the footage here.
I think that gives you guys a pretty nice and succinct summary of what's transpired so far as long as pertains to this witness, right?
But now you guys understand the importance of why they're trying to establish Melly's gang ties.
It's critical to them being able to get the death penalty.
All right.
Let's get back to it.
I'm going to unmute this.
It looks like they're breaking down text messages.
Green and him.
See that?
Yes, sir.
And that's on 10-6.
Yeah.
So that would be a pretty important meeting because the godfather wants to sit down, right?
Yeah.
Okay.
And that's on 10-6 at 12.05.
10-6 at 12.05.
He reiterates.
Me, you, him, and Jay Green.
Yes.
No response.
No.
So the next day, 10-7, 4:40.
Last, when you free.
No response.
That whole day goes by.
Next day, 10-8, 12:43:40.
To stay in tune is to communicate, bro.
If you feel like it's too much, too much, I think what it's meant to say for you can line up.
If it's sorry, let me go from the top.
If you guys have questions, go ahead and super chat them in.
I'll be answering questions when there's breaks and stuff like that.
So get your super chats in if you guys got questions.
Shout out to LJM BD5.
Don't worry, I'll answer this question.
This is a good one.
But I want to make sure we get as many people in here before I do that so people could get value from it.
I guess.
And that was on 10-8.
Four days later.
10-17.
Speak your mind like a man.
Don't have a fool guessing.
So Gino is not getting frustrated with this lack of response.
You're going to bring it back.
I agree.
It also, like that first message you read, it kind of seems like we're missing some context for conversations that might not be in these threads.
I'm just because some of this stuff doesn't make sense the way you dream.
It's almost like a continuation of a conversation that already happened.
It might seem that way, but you are.
There's no way to tell.
Right.
So the word you're looking for is you're speculating.
Sure.
Okay.
All right.
So finally, you get the response after all of that.
Just so you guys know, this Gino guy is a blood gang member/slash affiliate who's kind of a clout chaser.
He asked Melly a few times to like post them so you know he can get some clouds.
He also wants to be rapper.
So the defense attorney is trying to use this to illustrate that Melly isn't responding to this guy, you know, to kind of again, his job, the defense attorney's job here is to distance Melly from the gang as much as he can because he understands Melly's life literally hangs in the balance on this situation.
I think we're missing some conversations that were had not via text message.
Nice.
And you can speculate all day long.
Yeah, I think it's common sense.
Okay.
Okay.
You're right.
Do you have any proof of any of the things that you were speculating to have occurred, sir?
We had the phone extraction.
If I go through call logs, there might be something there.
And it might be a Martian.
Okay.
All right.
So in response to that, 10-23-2018 at 10:38, Gina responds on the same day.
Hit me when you free.
Got to get another one.
Right?
Right.
And then he sends the oath.
Correct.
On 10.24, that's not opened until 1118.
Yeah, I can't see what you did.
Oh, I'm sorry.
So no urgency with that either.
And it says, that same day, he texts him again.
There's no response to the oath, right?
Not to these messages, no.
And he texts him: that's the oath.
Me and you need to come up with a hand.
Yes.
So he's a gang member and he's in.
He doesn't have a handle yet.
And he's just now seen the oath, right?
Not according to the email chain.
Okay.
Okay.
This would just be a second time presenting him the oath.
And now we're on to page 32.
If we pan out, you'll agree with me.
There's no response to anything going on on page 32.
Correct.
First message.
1024, 1238.
Handle the name for the books.
Yes.
So he's not in the books yet.
We don't know that.
Okay.
We know he doesn't have a handle for the books.
We know that.
We don't know that according to these text messages.
He just said we need to come up with one.
Right at this point in time.
What are you saying?
Saying at 1024, when he's asking for the handle, they haven't come up with one yet.
We don't know if he has one.
Okay.
And then at 10.24 at 9.36.
So eight hours goes by.
Buff at me when you're free.
I need to skyline with all right.
Keep in mind, guys, look at the date here: 11, 18, 2018.
This is after the murder.
Correct.
Call me.
I need to talk to you about something.
Yes.
The murder occurred 10-26, 2018, for those that are wondering.
Because eight hours have gone by, right?
Yes.
10-25-908.
Next day.
Oh, wait, hold on.
Okay.
Sorry.
It looks like it was read on the 18th, but it was sent on the 24th.
Interesting.
Okay.
And just so you guys know, this is coming off of Celbright.
When you get information pulled from a Celbright, it's sometimes it's a little bit hard to interpret.
And Celbright is basically a device that extracts data from a phone.
And you got to be able to kind of read through it and decipher it.
It's a law enforcement tool.
So yeah, okay.
So it is a little confusing, but yeah.
It shows the status with red and the date here.
So this is two days before the murder.
Excuse me.
Just about.
1026 is the day that Melly's friends, Anthony Williams and Christopher Thomas were killed.
Right.
Okay.
You see a message we hear for you, bro.
Just let us know what you need.
See that?
Yes.
Sounds like some form of comforting and condolence to you.
You don't want to speculate.
Okay.
Don't next.
I went through what you're going through.
It hurts, but it's like when you go into the next level, the people you love die.
It's so they can protect you better from the sky.
See that?
I see that.
Okay.
Now, prior to those communications, was there any communication at all where you saw where Mellie was complaining to Gino or anybody else in or Gino or Stretch?
Stretch.
Where he's complaining to Gino or Stretch about Anthony Williams?
No, sir.
You see anywhere where he's complaining about Crystal Thomas?
To those two members?
Yes.
No.
Do you see anywhere where they're putting them on a plate for him or anybody else?
Not on those messages.
All right.
On page 35, you said one of the words that was used.
Let's look at page 35.
Guys, do me a quick favor.
Like the video.
We got 600 plus y'all in here, man.
I still haven't slept yet.
So do your boy a favor and like the video because we're grinding out here and giving you guys this value reacting to this trial live, giving you guys the playback.
And once we hit a thousand live viewers, I'll give you guys an update of what the hell's going on here.
That way I don't repeat myself too many times, but I want to keep you guys that are just joining in appraised of what the hell's going on here.
But basically, looking through text messages between Melly and a gang member named Gino.
We're going to talk about this in more detail once we hit 1k live viewers.
The relevance of this.
It's all gang members.
It's a reference to that's my big homie.
That's my little home.
That's the big home.
Okay.
Yeah, but like I said, if you just say, he's my homie, and you're just talking to your friends, it doesn't mean anything.
Okay, so you have homies.
Sure.
Okay, I have homies.
All right, let's go now to page 47.
Now, remember, these guys are trying to recruit, right?
They're trying to recruit, or you say he has already been recruited.
It appears he was recruited because they sent him the documents for the next step up.
Okay.
So I think you used the term clout chase, and I didn't use that term.
You used that term, right?
Correct.
Okay.
Tell me if this would be the type of thing you would refer to as clout chasing on page 47.
Post me for my belated birthday, Herc.
I'm only about, I'm only asking because I got hella hoes last time you posted me.
Yeah, it testified to that already.
Oh my God.
This guy, I know you did.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
But I'm asking you, is that the type of stuff?
Yes.
That you are referring to.
Yes, sir.
Cloud chasing.
Yes.
Let's go to page 48.
Let's start at the top of the page.
And this comes in on January 6, 2019, three months to the day after the incident issue in this case.
Yes.
Okay.
On another note, one of them Pair ends reached out to me saying something about some for shit.
See that?
Yes, sir.
Response: I was so disrespectful, they probably won't be calling me back.
See that?
Yes.
Response, got you, beloved.
Well, what they hollering about.
That was quite a lot accusing you of something that are punishable by death.
Also, stating that shine family is nothing more than a chess game in the palm of little Ford's hand.
Then he has another message.
I myself found that amusing.
The reach of the G-Shine hand is far-reaching, but being that you are really shine, that's something you are not going to have to witness.
For mothers and kids are not off-limits when disrespecting shine.
Right?
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Shine, guys, is either referring to the G-Shine Bloods, which is the gang that Millie is supposedly or allegedly a member of.
Gino and Herc was disrespectful.
We established that yesterday.
Yes.
Okay.
And Herc is a phrase used to refer to other members of the gang, very similar to like how YSL refers to each other as slime.
Similar.
Wouldn't be off-limit either.
Okay.
And it wouldn't make sense to kill the golden goose.
Now, we saw yesterday where Gino had suggested that it would be a good look for him to get some change for everybody.
Remember that?
Yes.
We're now looking at page 51.
See that second to last message there?
Yes.
What happened to the chains?
Never got, I guess.
No response.
Then he's like, never mind.
Right?
So he didn't get the chains that he was looking for.
go to 52 and it seems like Malley is trying to assure him that it will come but it hasn't He says, all that's coming, big bro.
Be patient.
I'm fresh out.
I'm going to have everything handled around March.
I ain't seen my mama yet.
I'm only one man.
Right?
Right.
Answer.
I believe you, bro.
What about my post?
I remember he asked for a post for his birthday.
I remember.
Okay.
I believe you, bro.
So he's not getting the change.
The post is free.
I believe you, bro.
What about my post?
Bet me.
Okay.
What about my post?
Seems like a period is supposed to be there.
N-word bet me $100.
Should I just go ahead and pay him?
In other words, somebody bet him $100 that he wasn't going to get a post.
Should I just pay the guy, man?
What about my post?
Right?
Yes.
That's how you interpret it too.
This dude a L, man.
Okay.
I mean, while the state had you up here when you were interpreting messages, you seem to have a level of certainty in all your assessments.
Now you're a little bit equivocated.
Don't worry, guys.
The lawyer is black for all you guys out here that are fucking, you know, one of these soft leftists.
Don't worry.
The lawyer's back.
It's black.
It's okay.
Melly got three lawyers, a female.
She's black.
I think she defended one of these other artists, a black male and a white dude.
Guys, do me a favor.
I'm trying to grow the channel.
If you got anyone that you know that's covering this case or trial or interested in it, send them the link to the stream, guys.
Let's build this.
Let's build this little thing up, man, because I'll be looking at some of these other true crime channels.
And I'm going to keep it a thousand with y'all, bro.
We are the fucking best over here.
It doesn't even come close.
Like, when I look at some of these other people, how like they kind of just cover crime or whatever, I'm able to give you guys a deep insight into how cases are really initiated and get into the weeds, like weeds, weeds, you know, depending on how deep you guys want to go.
So the only thing I ask, guys, subscribe to the channel, like the video.
I don't do this for the money.
I'm literally half asleep right now.
Haven't even slept since Fresh and Fit after Hours.
I genuinely do this channel because I enjoy it.
And I enjoy giving y'all this value.
I enjoy giving you guys insight.
I don't know anyone else that's a former Fed on YouTube, giving you guys the type of insight from the law enforcement perspective of the criminal justice system and true crime.
Never seen anyone else on YouTube.
So, you know, we got these weirdos like, you know, putting makeup on as they talk about Jeffrey Dahmer.
That shit's whack.
We need people with real world experience giving y'all the sauce of how this shit really works.
All right.
So no questions done, by the way.
If you guys got questions, shoot them in the super chats.
When the trials like on breaker, there's a dead silence or something like that.
I'll answer the questions.
But let's get back to it.
Please like the video, guys.
That's all I asked.
the stream with a friend uh manly line up onto me because we got all this money and we're well resourced and we got all of that right Right.
I need to borrow 10 bands.
I give you back 15.
Right.
Okay.
Did you get a response?
No.
Okay.
And he says, and you went over this, John Direct.
If I don't pay you back, you can have my stain and my life.
Right?
Yes, sir.
Let me tell you now.
Also, just to give you guys a little bit of insight, if you look, these text messages are being sent in 2019.
At this point, the murder investigation is fully underway.
The murder took place on 10-26, 2018.
So, I mean, there's probably a plausible reason why Melly isn't being so responsive to this guy.
This dude's a known gang member.
So, Melly knows that the police are on him.
So, he's probably not going to respond to these guys at the same level.
But the defense attorney, right, is using this as advantage, showing, look, Melly's not even responding to this guy.
Is he really a gang member?
Blah, blah, blah.
But the reality is, bro, he knows that he's under a lot of heat.
And about two weeks after this, Melly gets arrested.
Melly gets arrested.
I think his arrest date was sometime in February 2019.
So there's a potential plausible explanation for why he's not responding to this guy like he used to.
Why he's shuffling papers and pulling out more text messages.
Yeah, guys, like the video.
Once we hit 1,000 likes, I am going to give a full explanation of what the hell is going on here.
I just don't want to keep repeating myself and boring the people and pissing people off that have been here from the beginning.
So, yeah, just like the video.
I haven't slept yet.
I'd really appreciate it.
Let's get back to it.
Page 59, top on 9-13-2018.
Now we're back to Herc, right?
Right.
Before the incident.
Yes.
Yo, bro.
Do you fuck with Quando Rondo?
He disrespected the hood.
Answer when.
And remember, guys, Herc is a slang term for members of G-Shine.
Mellie responds: Nah, me and Brock fought.
Well, I fought Young Boy.
He fought my brother Sack.
Oh shit, Melly fought NBA Youngboy.
So now Melly is talking just a month earlier that he fought Youngboy is another rapper.
Yes.
And that he fought Youngboy because Youngboy was fighting his brother, Sack.
He says he fought Youngboy and that Youngboy fought his brother, Sack.
He doesn't specifically say this because he fought his brother, brother Sack.
So I don't know if he's defending his honor or if he was just involved in a two-on-one fight or a 2-2 fight.
Like, it's not fair.
You're asking me to speculate again.
Anytime I do, you say I can't.
Do you have to speculate on the fact that he's calling Sack his brother?
Okay.
Why is the defense attorney harping on that?
Because Sack Chaser was one of the people that were killed.
So he's trying to establish this: like, yo, this was his brother, bro.
Why would he shoot him and kill him?
Let's just go to this: Herc, and this is page 60 at the bottom: 9:15, 2018 to 1005.
What time does the show start tomorrow so I can know when to push up?
No response about half an hour later.
Just mark at me when you free her.
See that?
I see that.
Okay.
161.
Excuse me, Mr. Howell.
Yes.
Yes.
Minded, the mic's right behind you.
Stop mumbling.
I'm being reminded too.
All right.
Where are we?
I think we're at page 61, page 61.
First message.
Yo, I don't mean to keep hitting you up, bro, but what time do you want me to boam up there?
I don't know the place or time it starts.
Right?
Right.
this was this is 915 at 1230 and we have seen that 210 a.m.
is when he starts asking He asks him to bark at him at 2.7.
Now at 12:30 p.m., he's saying, yo, I don't mean to keep hitting you up, bro.
But what time do you want me to bomb up there?
I don't know the place or the time it starts.
Right?
Sure.
To respond, Melie responds to that one.
I'm getting ready.
I'm getting ready now, Hurt.
Most likely around 1 a.m., right?
Right.
Response.
Where is it located at again?
Where is it located at again?
No response.
Seven minutes later.
Venue.
No response.
And then about three hours later at 3:33 p.m., yo, bro, you, bro, I get down there around eight or nine.
Where you want to link at?
See that?
See it.
Okay.
So he found out some kind of way where it is.
Exactly what I was saying before.
They're communicating all set of text messages.
I'll give you that.
Thank you.
No, no.
Well, then you are speculating that they're communicating.
If somebody's having a show, would Melly be the only person on planet Earth that knows where the show is?
No.
Okay.
So when you say that they're communicating, that's where the speculation is.
When there's a photograph of them together, that means they linked up.
So they must have communicated.
I don't know.
We're not talking about that.
We're talking about him finding out where the venue is.
That's what we're talking about.
So, yeah, he could have found Venue off any which way, but at some point they had to have communicated for them to get together and take photographs.
Okay.
See what the defense attorney did there?
He's subtly trying, you know, hurt the credibility of the detective.
Like, look, they're not responding to each other, but the detective kind of, he's sharp.
He's like, but they took a picture later that night.
So clearly they linked up, even though he didn't respond to them over text message.
They could have used some other app to communicate.
So smart, smart of the detective there, you know?
If so, I'll grade you some.
What does it say?
What does that mean?
That's the lead.
Fuck with.
He's asking me to be fucked with Perk's Perkies.
Perkins.
Okay.
Perkets, Hurt.
If so, I'll grade you some.
Bring something.
Answer.
I don't do no drugs, Herc.
What does he say right after that?
Bring some to my Crips too.
His who?
Crips.
Not his bloods?
Okay.
He can't.
He's not even supposed to use a C there, right?
Okay.
And not only does he use the C, he refers to his buddies as his Crips.
Did that happen?
Yes or no?
It did.
Okay.
Here we go.
the fed's already earning his money today here we go That defense attorney's earning his money today.
But of course, what is he trying to do?
He's trying to establish Melly isn't a part of the gang, guys.
Okay.
And I see what he's doing here.
Again, plausible deniability for why he could say that, right?
There's a lot of bloods that are cool with Crips.
It's not uncommon.
But, you know, the defense attorney is trying to illustrate.
Look, Melly's cool with Crips.
That means he's not a part of the Bloods.
Which, to an impressionable jury that isn't familiar with gang culture, they might not know that.
So, the detective needs to be smart here and be able to illustrate that bloods and crips do hang out depending on the sets, not the overall overarching umbrella gang.
But that was a clever tactic by this defense attorney like the goddamn video.
You ain't gonna get a breakdown like this anywhere else on YouTube.
We got about 900 y'all in here.
Like the video, like I said before, we just got need one more hundred uh viewers.
And what I'm gonna do is give y'all a recap of what the hell's going on here.
Sorry, this is her guys.
I'm not up early, I just haven't slept.
So, hey, man, the grind never stops for you guys, bro.
Love y'all because everybody is professing to be of higher rank than the other.
Herc is professing to be of higher rank than Gino, right?
All right, no, he said he had Gino bend the rules.
Okay, so actually, he's not.
I'm striking that, I was wrong, but he actually petitioned Gino to bend the rules on behalf of Mell, right?
I'm gonna be totally honest with you, bro.
I have Gino kind of bend the rules for you because I happen to be a huge fan of your music.
But Gino is gonna fall back for you, and I will deal with you until I feel like you're ready for Gino's crisis, right?
Yes, so Herc is saying, Look, I'm gonna handle you and kind of bring you along because you're not ready to stand before Gino, right?
Right, okay.
Uh, this Gino, the same guy that he was ignoring time and time and time again, that guy, yes, okay, and the godfather who was waiting for him for a meeting is over Gino and her, right?
Okay, when he feels like you're ready, then you will be granted total access and acceptance.
Until then, the godfather will never acknowledge you, so he's not even acknowledged by the godfather yet, right?
Okay, we still don't know, we still don't know you, but we see that you love the hood, okay?
He's saying we see you love blood, but we don't even know you, bro, right?
Okay, so we accept you with open arms.
You got to always communicate, bro.
Didn't want to use the C. You family now, it's one of the 23 rules, and I'm responsible for you.
So, we got to make sure everything is on point, and you got to work on your lingo.
We will talk more when we push up Saturday, right?
Did I read that correctly?
yeah okay and then if you guys can see there basically melly responded hey guys i've been busy i'm doing radio runs etc So, this is really good on the defense attorney, showing that Melly isn't a full-fledged gang member.
But I'll talk about this in a little bit.
That's not really relevant for gang cases, but I'll explain why.
But this is good because he's doing this in front of a jury, you know.
It's 2018 at 12:42:30.
And the question is, Yo, is this true?
Right, right, they have the murder, murders, sorry, right?
Yes, and Kirk is asking Melly if it's true what he's seeing on social media.
What we saw was a post about um Anthony Williams and Chris Thomas being killed, right?
Okay, and then he says that's at 1026, 1242, and then at 1026, 50 557 10.
Dan, bro, I'm sorry for your loss.
I know shit hard for you right now, but keep your head up.
Yo, keep your head up.
You, I wish I could have been there to guide you.
If it's anything you need, bro, let me know.
Don't hesitate to bark at me.
And remember, guys, because at this point, they think that Melly was a victim of a drive-by shooting.
That's why they're reaching out the way that they did.
You didn't see that as condolences.
What you're saying is he was saying, I hope I was hoping I would be there to guide you in killing people.
That's how you interpret that.
You have to speculate again.
Or do you want me to just give you guys my professional opinion?
Well, because based off the way game album, I can tell you why this makes sense.
Ah, when you, how are you distinguishing your speculation from your professional opinion?
You're the one distinguishing answer.
Army?
You're the one distinguishing it.
I'm trying to get it out.
So, your professional opinion is your speculation.
My expert opinion about gang testimony about gang knowledge is what I can testify to.
And that's only as good as this expertise that we profess, but your interpretation of that communication was that he's saying, I wish I was there to guide you on how to do this.
Right?
Right.
Because no one called me and said, I wish I could have guided you.
He said, I send my condolences.
I hope you're okay.
This is, I wish I could guide you.
Hasn't Herc been trying to guide him the whole time in growing up, being a man, being a blood?
Did you say that?
Did we see that?
Did we saw that?
Okay.
And you are basing all right.
What you guys are witnessing right now is really good cross-examination content.
So I need you guys to really pay attention to what the hell is going on here.
I'm pausing it because I really want to let y'all know this is fantastic cross-examination by the defense attorney, but the detective is also doing a really good job standing his ground and articulating why he believes that the guide you phrase was more along the lines of could have guided you in a better way to kill your friends.
And the defense attorney is saying, well, wasn't he saying that he needs to guide Mellie this entire situation?
So that's kind of a moot point.
So this is really good cross-examination by the defense attorney and good responses by the detective.
Please listen up.
This is good, proper cross-examination, guys.
Good lawyer on Melly's side over here.
Your professional opinion on the anecdotal example of how, guys, for those of you that are just joining, wondering why the hell is his not head not showing?
Okay, you know what?
We got a thousand live viewers.
So you know what?
Let's go ahead.
This is what's going on.
We have a Bear County Sheriff's Office detective that does undercover operations for gang narcotics and firearms investigations testifying.
The first thing he testified, which I think was at the end of last week, he wore a mask because they pretty much had green lit him for about $50,000, right?
So normally you don't wear a mask in court.
I mean, I'll keep it a thousand channels.
I rarely have even seen this.
I've heard of it done in federal courtrooms and stuff, but it's not common.
So now he's testifying without his mask on.
However, they're not showing him on camera.
Okay.
So the reason why the camera angle is like that is to hide the identity of this deputy who's been green lit because of his undercover work.
Okay.
He's testifying right now as a subject matter expert on the Bloods gang, namely the G Shine Set Bloods that Melly is allegedly a member of.
He's being cross-examined by the defense counsel on testimony that he gave on direct from the prosecutor.
This guy's a prosecution's witness, obviously, because he's a law enforcement officer.
So he's been testifying about Melly's involvement with the blood gang.
Why is this important?
The reason why this is important is because the state is pursuing the death penalty.
And a pivotal and crucial component of them being able to get the death penalty is them being able to establish that Melly is in fact a gang member with the G-Shine Bloods.
So this subject matter expert is trying to show and articulate that Melly was in fact a member of this gang.
And they're showing communication between Melly and members of the gang.
And the defense counsel is trying to articulate that Melly was never really a member of the gang.
He's not even responding to these guys.
They're not even like the text message before.
Hey, you can't meet the grandfather yet, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So defense, you know, is doing what they do.
They're trying to create doubt that Melly is a gang member while the detective is alleging that he is.
So now we are where we're at right now, where I've paused the video.
And this is fantastic cross-examination because now the defense attorney is going to challenge the detective on a lot of the statements he made the day prior about Melly being a gang member down.
Don DeMonco.
You're only going to get a better explanation than that of what the fuck is going on here.
So, 1,000 of y'all in here, like the video.
Best breakdown on this case on the internet because nobody can break this down to this degree on YouTube.
Why?
Because I've actually done gang investigations.
Also, I want to give you guys this special note as well.
A person does not have to be proven to be a verified member of a gang to be charged as if he's a member of the gang.
Okay, hold on.
One more time.
A gang member, guys, does not need to be identified as a verified, full-fledged member of the gang to be charged as a gang member.
I'll give you an example of this.
As you guys remember, back in 2018, a guy named Daniel Hernandez, aka Takashi 6ix9ine, was charged in a federal racketeering investigation as being a member of the Nine Trade Bloods.
Well, we know that 6ix9ine, after the fact, was never actually a full-fledged gang member.
He was merely an associate that supported, financed, and had the gang around him for protection purposes.
The government don't give a fuck about none of that, though.
It doesn't matter if you're beat in, you're jumped into the gang, or you're flagging or you're not false flag.
It don't matter.
As long as the government can prove that you are committing criminal activity and/or committing acts in furtherance of the gang, nine out of 10 times, that is enough to suffice to charge you under any type of gang statute, whether it's racketeering, which is the highest threshold, or something like this, where they're trying to establish that you're a gang member so they could push for the death penalty.
I think, regardless of whether they're able to establish that he's a verified member or not, it doesn't matter because there's a bunch of evidence out there showing that he's at least an associate.
And more than likely, that will be enough to trigger the death penalty portion of this trial should Melly be found guilty.
Okay, so let's keep going.
Pay attention, guys.
This is a great cross-examination, by the way.
Like the goddamn video for that recap.
What somebody said to you when your grandfather died.
not just my guy.
Let's look at page 83 for panning out a whole bunch of texts from her that weren't responded to, right?
Right.
Okay.
See there from her first one is 11 one 2018 940 52.
Bet just checking up on you and SL.
What does SL mean?
Shine love.
Shine love.
All I know say 100%.
And then we have 11-4.
And this again is an hour after the internet now, right?
11-4 is after the internet issue in this case, right?
Yes.
Okay.
Good show, Herc.
You had me turn.
Be safe on the road to fool.
You don't know what that means.
Shine love.
Then four days later, your bro, hit me when you're free.
Got to give you some food.
Are you suggesting that it's him saying I got to give you somebody to kill?
I don't think so.
Okay.
And then at 11:37, same day, send me, bro, IG.
And I'm sending food now.
Make sure you check it out.
And 11-8, 1258.
More or less, Eastside Bang and Blood.
I need a true and living stand on ground, devotion, outstanding, and loyalty for cause.
All I rep in the Shine family, because rail riders don't switch, therefore it's platinum, gold, gold, platinum, 001, G's up, even when my mind, body, and soul depart forever expanding the mind.
High line black, yes.
That would be the food he was referring to, the knowledge.
Okay, so the knowledge that he is sending him is this word salad right here, right?
And then it said, I've got a new scrap I want to show you.
And then at page 84, it's bus at me when you're free.
11-11 at 12-33.
And then 11-17.
I'm sorry, 11:13 at 11:17.
Two days later, add me back, you ugly ass.
What do you interpret that?
Yeah, sounds like you didn't accept his friend requests.
Sounds like what he didn't accept his friend requests.
He's saying, add me back.
Yes.
The reason why the defense attorney is showing this stuff is to show that, look, Melly's not even really a part of the gang.
Like, look, he's not acknowledging these guys.
He's not responding.
He's not accepting their friend requests, etc., etc.
He says at the top, hit me, BSAP.
That's ASAP, right?
Correct.
Okay, hit me ASAP.
And he sends that at 8:20 on 11:18.
The 8:20 again gets a return.
He gave him an ASAP or BSAP response.
It took him two minutes.
Alrighty, two minutes.
Okay.
And then Hurt says, back and he says, hit me when you free.
Nothing major.
Then, what does this YOOON mean again?
A couple of little wounds and blood, love.
Okay.
So they're just using language.
They're all blood love.
Okay.
He spelled your blood.
He put a double Y inside of it.
It's just how they incorporate the signs and symbols into their writing.
Got it.
I sent you a beat.
Tell me what you think about it.
I was hoping you can put a hook on it if you like.
That one instead, let me know what you think.
Right?
Then you discussed that yesterday.
Yes.
And a beat is a music track.
And a hook is a rap or lyrics.
In verse.
And he's like sending him a beat, and he wanted to put a hook on it.
Sure.
Okay.
This would be some self-serving effort to try and advance his own music career.
Page
93.
That exchange starts from 10.25 at 12.04.09.
What's it looking like?
At 11.25 at 12.10, he responds: Everything 05 day, they're on the road, right?
Right.
Okay.
And then on 1125 at 2013, bet it up.
Shine right, shine right, shine bright, shine love, bro.
Right?
According to what you say SL means, right?
Yes.
Okay.
And then three days later at 1030 or sorry 1003 boy i see ugly ass on tv represent right right okay and then two days later at 10 50 57 y 001 rise up her see that and then on 12 5 just now five days later 1202 Damn,
what's up, blood?
We beefing on something.
I know you view me barking at you.
I just be trying to check up on you.
That's one of the 31 rules of an really care about you, bro, because that fake rocking, we don't roll like that, bro.
No, in this five dub, we straight up with each other because we go die about this GSF shit.
You heard?
Just let me know what's up.
Right?
Yes, sir.
So he's just getting no responses.
He's like, bro, we beefing or something?
What's up?
Right?
Okay.
So we don't know what calls were or were not made, but we know, at least on this occasion, the communication was sufficiently lacking for him to be like, bro, are we beefing?
So again, defense attorney is doing a good job here of trying to establish that Millie doesn't even talk to these people.
So how can he actually be a part of the gang?
And for a jury, this is very powerful because they might not necessarily know the ins and outs of gang culture unless the subject matter expert explains it who's on the stand right now.
We beefing.
Looks like it's meant to say, bro, did you really just say we beefing?
Right?
Okay.
And there's a status sent, whatever that is.
And his response is from her.
Of course, we're not beefing, bro.
But you got to do better on your communication with your five dubs.
That's part of getting your staying together.
Oops, can't see that.
Right?
See it.
All right.
His response, her, nigga, damn busy.
Then he says, flight to flight, don't even see my mama.
Don't even see my mama text on God.
Right?
Right.
So he's saying, from my phone, I don't even see my mom's text coming, let alone yours.
Right.
Okay.
And his response is, and I smell that, bro.
I think you covered this yesterday.
And I smell that, bro, but this GSF shit is a real, real real or our real.
Real right.
Real right.
Hold up.
Don't come before the real.
Real right is our real.
We're doing that double R because double R stands for real right.
It's just more like when they put the 001 inside the blood.
It's just okay.
I mean real right.
Okay.
And I smell that, bro, but this GSF shit is a real right mom.
Regardless of how busy you are, how busy we all get, we always got to make sure we find time to check up on the bros, even trouble, trouble.
Do it, bro.
And he's a big artist like you.
It's nothing personal.
We're not saying we want all your time.
Just text and let us know you're good.
That's all, bro.
You say your brothers, you say you brothers, but you've been showing us different.
And we really got real love for you, Herbert 110%, right?
Right.
So he's saying, look, man, I hear you.
Again, like I said before, all right.
So a sidebar is going on right now.
So we got a little bit of time.
For some of you guys that are unaware, a sidebar is basically when the lawyers from both opposing sides, the defense and the prosecution get together and have a discussion, whether, you know, it's on legality situation, evidence, procedure, whatever it may be.
They kind of go there and mediate it out with the judge.
They go to the judges thing and they talk.
And then they go back and, you know, they kind of get on the same page and continue to argue their points in court.
Let the ring reflect the jury step down.
Counselor Maymo is sent.
I think John Holton, Mr. Jefferson, is a restroom rick.
All right, counselor regarding the photographs.
Is the doctor here yet?
She is not into the court's house, and then we're saying that she's in the barrage.
Let me know, I don't know exactly when we're going to get to her to talk about the photographs, but what do you mean?
You mean the barrage?
I don't know.
I'm fine.
I'm getting back.
I'll explain what's going on here in a second for you guys.
And you guys are probably wondering why the fuck is this shit so weird or whatever, randomly putting the camera up and stuff.
This is a live trial, guys.
So they have to, you know, obviously be cognizant of certain things.
But it looks to me, yeah, court is a short recess.
All right, what I predicted.
All right.
So basically, it looks to me that the undercover sheriff's deputy is now done testifying.
He's been testifying for multiple days now, guys, about Melly's involvement in the gang.
Obviously, the state is trying to allege that he is a member of the gang.
The defense is trying to say he's not.
The prosecution showed text messages saying that Melly's using gang vernacular.
He's communicating with these guys.
They showed pictures of him throwing bees and all this other stuff.
And then the defense showed other instances where Melly wasn't necessarily responding, using K's in his communication, not necessarily being the gang not acknowledging to the same level.
You can't be around the Godfather.
We don't know you like that, but we got love for you.
So it's the defense is doing a good job right now of trying to create reasonable doubt that Melly might not necessarily be a full-fledged member of this gang.
Again, I discussed this a second ago.
That might not necessarily matter because we've seen so many cases where individuals that weren't necessarily full-fledged gang members still got charged under racketeering laws, even though they were just associates.
And obviously, the threshold of being federally prosecuted for racketeering is way higher than that of being proven as a gang member in a state trial.
Okay.
Because obviously in that situation, they got to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he's guilty, committing acts in furtherance of a gang.
So we'll see what happens.
The state system is completely different.
The jury might not necessarily, I don't even know if they even get to weigh in on this, but I think it will be a component when they're deliberating because obviously that's going to be a crucial component in whether the state of Florida can pursue the death penalty.
That's why they spent so much time with this detective trying to establish that Melly is a gang member.
So, all right, let's go ahead and get into the chats, guys.
So, if you guys got any questions, shoot them now because while the court is in recess, I'm going to read these shots and answer questions.
We got here, LJMBD5 goes, Morning, Wyron Gaines.
I need advice.
I'm 29-year-old married truck driver.
I'm deciding if I should become law, a law enforcement officer in Camden, New Jersey.
Trucking is good, money, but long hours with no benefits.
Well, my friend, this is where you got to kind of have to choose what you want to do here as far as what you're going to enjoy more.
So you're going to make six figures as a law enforcement officer in New Jersey, and you're also going to make six figures as a truck driver.
It really comes down more to what you want to do, what you enjoy, what your passion is.
So I would say in those two career fields, don't be a cop unless you actually want to do it.
Don't be a cop unless you actually want to do it.
Now they're going to give their insight with the court crime TV.
Let's go ahead and see what they got to say real quick.
Trial here on Long Crime.
Today is day nine of that trial against Jamal Devons.
He faces two counts of first-degree murder and the shooting deaths of his two friends.
We want to jump back into that Broward County courtroom.
We're listening to the cross-examination of undercover detective Danny Polo about the connection between the defendant.
But just to finish off, you don't want to become a cop unless you really want to do it, bro.
It's not an easy job.
Okay, now they're recapping it.
Next page, 53.
Yes, sir.
Here comes another ask.
150.
All right, we went over this.
So let me go back to the chats here.
So, hold on one second.
I'm trying to adjust this thing here.
Nope, that's not it.
My bad.
Bear with me, guys, here.
Okay.
Is this better?
Okay, we'll just do this.
Okay, um, we got here.
No lie goes, Myron, tell my girl I want to smash them three or fours, please.
Hey, bro, uh, get her on the show.
You would be one of many.
Uh, tink about uh Dinkin Bows hot dog shop.
This man, Myron, don't stop.
Your hustle is inspiring.
I know, bro.
It's I'm still haven't slept, man.
Candace M, W early stream.
Appreciate that.
Them boys.
Hey, yo, like the video before I bring a building down on y'all.
Oh my God, bro.
You about to get us canceled, man.
If you know, you know, in the chat.
Uh, the way goes, Myron, my name is Bassam, and I appreciate your work.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate you.
Share the link and get the views up.
These boys really grind.
Absolutely, bro.
That's why, like I said before, these other YouTubers can't touch us.
We give y'all diversified content, baby.
Whether it's bringing on guests that help you guys make money, true crime, fucking teaching y'all how to get girls, how to get in shape, how to start a business.
We are the most diversified YouTube channel for male self-improvement in the world, bro.
Like, real talk, man.
We give y'all all types of content.
We are diversified over here, not a one-trick pony.
Uh, Montreaux rather goes, We need a person telling true crimes while working out, telling you how to get fit, or just have Myron Bigsby narrating the true crime stories.
I appreciate that.
Then we got love your FedEx channel.
Hope you one day do a reaction to the Ramon Sosa case, hit and run for hire, even more interesting than the Dipolito case.
Okay, interesting.
Uh, CJP, again, I mean hitman for hire.
My bad, it got you, bro.
I understood what you meant.
Uh, clean recap: I love the streams.
Keep it my uh, keep it up, Myron, best fed channel on YouTube.
Like the video, yes, guys, please like the video.
Uh, we got here uh, Glock Izzy, Myron, Gray Show yesterday needed that.
Got y'all.
Wavy Rich goes, Thank you, Myron, for what you do, encouraging men to be the best version of themselves and not pedestalizing women who don't care, who don't deserve it.
I learned so much from you.
Thank you is an understatement.
Well, guys, you got to understand that there's very few things that fulfill me to the same degree as helping you guys out and keeping guns out of guys' mouths.
Uh, my prior job being a special age of homeland, putting away really bad people, there was terrorist child pedophiles, etc.
And the other greatest satisfaction is knowing that I'm helping you guys live longer, live better lives, get the life that you actually want, and being in control of your life, guys.
I tell you guys all the time, I don't give a shit if y'all are monogamous.
Well, girls, I don't care if you guys want to be a dutiful husband and live with one woman and have that girl for the rest of your life, that's fine.
But I want it to be on your terms, not hers.
I want y'all to be the ones that want the monogamy, not her.
I want y'all to dictate the relationship, not her.
When you dictate things, trust me, life is better.
She's gonna, she's gonna feel better, be less bitchy, and be happy.
But when she dictates terms, it's going to be a miserable experience, my friends.
So, it is what it is, man.
It is what it is.
That's all I want for y'all.
I want you guys to be able to live life on your terms.
If you want to fuck a bunch of bitches, cool.
I'll equip you with a tool set to do so.
If you want to have just one girl and have her submit to you and be a dutiful girlfriend, well, guess what?
Being able to attract women is going to keep her in that frame because women only give you their submission and loyalty when they know that you can replace them easily.
That is a very important thing that for some odd reason isn't broadcasted out in the mainstream media or dating circles in general.
Like, we're over here telling women that they're equal to men and it's a partnership and all this other BS.
It's a cap, man.
Women will never be equal to men.
They don't want to be equal to men, and you shouldn't treat them as equals because they will punish you for treating them like an equal.
Let's get back to it.
That the defense is making here.
What do you think the prosecution is going to do when they go on redirect?
I feel like they have to rehabilitate this witness a little bit.
They have to rehabilitate him, and they also have to, you know, really get in here that he.
What is rehabilitating a witness?
Rehabilitating a witness, guys, is after they go through a cross-examination where they get beat up a little bit, it's the person who brought that witness in the first place.
So, in this case, it's a prosecution witness.
So, they're going to go in there.
They're going to go ahead and clarify some of the things that might have looked a little off or iffy when the defense was cross-examining him.
Okay.
So, what they might say is, is it not true that a gang member can mess up and use a K in one instance and not have meant to do that when they were supposed to be use a C, excuse me, when they should not have done that?
Yes, it is possible, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So, they're going to go ahead and try to reestablish more credibility from their witness that might have lost a little bit of credibility on the stand, which is inevitable.
When you're on the stand, especially as long as this guy was, you're going to lose a little bit of credibility on cross because you said so much, and the defense can go ahead and hone in all little points that you made during hours of testimony to make you look crazy.
That's their job.
Now it's the prosecutor's job to bring back that credibility and show that the defense was merely trying to pick at certain things and deflect and kind of put smoke and mirrors to the jury.
So we're going to see how good this prosecutor is with rehabilitating their witnesses.
But that's what rehabilitating a witness means, guys.
I'm giving y'all fucking sauce right now.
God damn.
All right, let's keep going.
He's got a lot of experience with this, that he wasn't biased when he came up here, that he reviewed no sleep, too.
Dude, all of this, and it goes to show that this was gang-related.
was part of the gang i think it's telling y'all guys i'll do this shit in my sleep man half awake still giving y'all this fire Why?
Because I used to do this.
I've done gang investigations.
I've arrested people that are bloods, Crips, Latin Kings.
I know this shit.
Okay.
So this is right up my alley.
So I'm really excited and happy to share this information with y'all.
So yeah.
Anyway, let's keep going.
It's going to be tough, though, because some of the text messages that we're seeing, it's condolence.
It's like, I heard about what you're going through.
You're hurting.
I've been through it.
So it really is going to be a hard hurdle to overcome for the prosecution.
I can't help but think what the defense says.
And I don't want this just to be in a show where we're attacking the prosecution, but I do want to think about what the.
Well, that is what y'all have been doing the whole trial.
The law and crime network has been very favorable to Melly saying that he's innocent or they don't even have evidence, blah, blah, blah.
Stupid.
Yeah.
Yeah, we'll see.
Defense said is that this was a bot.
The next witness that's going to come up, by the way, if I'm not mistaken, because the judge, I don't know if y'all caught it.
He asked, is the doctor here?
If it's who I think it is, he means a medical examiner.
That medical examiner is going to blow this case wide open, guys, because the medical examiner is going to testify that not only were the victims dead when the drive-by shooting allegedly occurred because they were able to figure out that they were shot.
The fatal shots killed them.
Blood stopped pumping because the heart obviously stopped.
And then they were shot after the fact in the stage drive-by shooting and they didn't bleed with the same, they didn't bleed as profusely when they got shot at the fact because they were already dead.
And then he's going to, the medical examiner is also going to testify to the direction of the bullets, the fatal wounds, all that stuff.
So that's what's going to kind of destroy Melly's co-defendant, Bortland's story that they had been attacked in a drive-by shooting.
And Melly actually said that they got attacked in a drive-by shooting indirectly in his documentary that he released in 2018, which actually sells slips on himself because in that documentary, he said Melly and his friends were targets of a drive-by shooting.
Well, why is that important?
That puts Melly at the scene, which is what he's been trying to avoid.
So his own documentary fucked him up because he proved that he had been at the scene and they were victims of a drive-by shooting, which the examiner is going to be able to prove with wound patterns, stipling, the victims already being dead when they were shot on the second round of shots.
All of this is going to be shown when the medical examiner comes in, who I think is more than likely up next to testify.
So, yeah, you know, it is what it is.
Let's keep going.
See that with these guys, I think, over here at Law and Crime Network.
Some of them are dead wrong, though.
I ain't going to lie.
They were immediately targeting their client because he's famous.
And now I'm listening and thinking about the prosecution's case, and I'm wondering, was it a mistake to call this witness?
They could, I'm imagine, called a different expert in gang culture.
He was already controversial with the mask.
Do you think that this was a bad road for them to go down?
They making more losses here because it seems like this witness is now not doing so on to cross.
Well, I think you needed somebody that had some experience in dealing with these types of criminal enterprises to be able to explain to the jury what these words meant.
I mean, you know, the jury is still going to be able to look at these communications and reach their own conclusions.
So in that sense, they didn't have someone on the inside that could actually link the defendant to the gang, to the criminal activity.
That's true.
And that's where you usually get in these kinds of cases, but they didn't have that.
So now they had to sort of circumstantially create that link.
And I think that that's what they did right now.
It's almost like they're taking this language, they're taking these messages, they're taking these videos and translating it like it's Rosetta Stone for everybody to understand what the significance of it is.
Janina Tamien, I know we got to sign you off.
Thank you so much for taking the time.
Really do appreciate it.
Bob Hill is going to stay with me.
We have a lot more for you here on Lawn Crime.
We'll be right back right after this.
All right, let's go back to the live.
The 98 of uh Robert County Night Trade Gangster Glob member.
Okay, I'm I Robinson, but he's not saying he's Boobon Hurt.
No, he's a nitrate gangster but okay.
Okay, it looks like they're still on uh cross here because the person he's talking to on page 115 says who I thought you said he was hurt, right?
At least whoever Goon is thought he was saying Bubon is hurt.
Defense is probably going to wrap up their cross here very soon and then they're going to go and redirect and then probably bring in an ex-witness.
Almost there.
By the way, guys, we got 1,300 y'all watching right now.
Almost 1,400, but we only got 800-something likes, man.
Do me a solid, bro.
I don't want any money, none of that.
All I ask is that you guys like the video, subscribe to the channel.
That's all I ask.
Help the channel grow.
Share this with a friend.
That's all I want.
I do this for y'all.
This isn't about the money.
This is about giving you guys that education, man.
You know what?
We are there.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, sir.
Want me to leave this up here?
Sure.
Thank you.
Counselor, do you want me to redirect?
Yes, sir.
Detective Fuller, do you make your determination as to whether or not someone is a gang member?
Okay, looks like we're about to go into redirect.
So that woman that's speaking is the prosecutor, guys.
Multitude of factors, and I like to...
Her job now is to rehabilitate the witness, which we just discussed, bring back some of that credibility that might have been lost on cross-examination when he was questioned by the defense.
I had limited information.
I don't want to come to court with that determination.
And it turns out, is Mr. Williams on trial today?
He's in trial today.
Okay.
And when a person becomes a member of a gang, it's a lifetime membership?
Depends on the gang.
Depends on circumstances.
Depends on the person.
Sometimes they're allowed to be put on the shelf, and, you know, stay out, or not be an active member.
Okay, so you mentioned put on the shelf.
That's a term you haven't used to pull.
What does that mean?
It's just a term to say that the person is not actively involved in the gang's activities.
It's not necessarily just a criminal portion of it, but the gang activities, it might not be called meetings and stuff like that.
Okay.
You also used the term meal ticket.
Is that something that has a particular connotation in regards to gangs?
Yeah, so, I think it's been going on for as long as I can think.
Gangs have always used rappers, and rappers have always used gangs to promote each other.
Gangs use rappers because rappers bring in money, fame, things of that sort, women, as we saw in the text messages, and the rappers use the gang for support so they can get into certain venues because they might not be allowed to certain venues, as we saw in some of the texts, unless they have that support.
So you mentioned that they use each other.
Yes.
How is that reflected in the messages and in your opinion based on what you've seen?
Well, it appears that maybe Mellie wasn't reciprocating as much as they were asking him to, but they were asking him to, right?
Give me chains, give me to the show, post me on social media.
You know, minor asks, some minor asks, so asking for $10,000, maybe might not be a minor ask for Mellie, but some people think that's a lot of money.
And is there a certain amount of latitude or give when the gang wants something?
Yeah, so I mean, especially if you have fame and they're trying to use that fame, they're going to give you a little more space, a little more wiggle room because they don't want to lose you.
This is evidence with other rappers who claim gang affiliations and they don't travel for gang.
Okay.
And state 70, council made a big deal about the lack of responses that he perceives in this.
Yes.
In terms of on page 47, there is no response from January 3rd to January 25th.
Are there circumstances in which a person's not allowed to have possession of a cell phone without going into what those circumstances are?
Yeah, I didn't want to mention them.
Okay.
So you mentioned as well that the messages don't show phone calls.
Phone calls, FaceTimes, Instagram, FaceTime, Facebook.
facetime and so in terms of the state of the planet published at this point part of state 64 showing council computer thank you hey guys we're at 980 likes man let's get this bitch to 1.1k man it should be easy 100 plus 120 likes is nothing let's do it guys we got 1.4k watching right now almost 13.96

10,963 images that are contained on this phone what is this showing missed facetime calls messages received more facetime calls um specifically is there a missed facetime call from gino gino's there and is that one of the numbers in the contacts that we just went over that is yeah that's one of the text threads that we went over and there are messages from gino are there messages from gino on january
2nd i believe so i would have to double check the first plenty of messages for
example page 47 gino january 2nd 2019 hey we're always working guys i just updated the thumbnail so if y'all are bored refresh the page and check out the new thumbnail it's pretty fire shout out to my guy nick he just put it up man the grind never ends god damn it

commentators on the internet right now especially when it comes to the ukraine-russia conflict then we got on friday ryan dawson and we're going to talk about 9 11 part 3 we're We're going to talk about a whole cell in Tennessee of Demboys, by the way, that was responsible or behind 9-11 along with the New York cell of them boys.
You know what I'm saying?
Okay.
And how it all works together alongside the art student, Demboys.
So, three cells of the boys that we've already exposed, right?
On Fresh of Fit, thanks to Ryan Dawson showing declassified FBI documents.
This is all fact.
This is not speculation.
This isn't crazy conspiracy theories.
This is coming from declassified documents, okay, that they declassified recently because this shit happened 20 years ago, and I don't think anyone cares anymore, but they definitely do.
So, Friday, Ryan Dawson.
Then, I'm gonna drop.
Then, July 7th, Nick fucking Fuentes, one of the most canceled people coming.
I'm working on Tommy Sotomayor.
I'm working on some other guests that I can't name just yet for y'all.
We got a lot of heat coming.
And then, on this channel, you know what?
I'm gonna reveal that later on what I got for this channel.
I got something real special for y'all that I'm gonna share on this channel.
But let's get back to the trial here.
The extraction report and things like that, is it able to recover all deleted messages?
I'll reveal at the end of the stream.
Stay for the stream, and I'll tell y'all what it is.
The big surprise messages that we went through, or in any of the other messages you reviewed on this phone, does the defendant ever say stop?
No, the complete opposite sends us an email and says, feed me, send me more knowledge.
I want these documents, basically.
Does the individual with the 9807 phone ever say the email?
No, I believe the only altercation of that sort was with Kuhn when he decided to not fall under that line argument.
So, counsel asks you if the phone tells you when messages and things are received and who they're from.
Right, approximately, how many emails are unread on this phone?
2072, and how many text messages or spine messages are unread on this phone at this point?
195.
The phone has and shows that the defendant or whoever was using the phone, I should say, went and sought out the email from Jaquan Burton and opened it up.
Yes, you mentioned as well, and there was a lot of things, but the majority of the messages aren't from October 26th of 2018.
You would agree with that, bro.
Yo, Mossad says, gonna have Nick and Ryan Dawson.
That's a W. Bruh, the fucking irony.
I got a screenshot that should have said that to these dudes, bro.
All I'm gonna say is, if you know, you know.
That's all I gotta say.
I ain't gonna go further than that.
We're on YouTube, baby.
Right.
Do you notice any change in spelling or word choice before, during, and after?
No, the language was consistent throughout.
Council asked you and brought up to your attention a message where Mr. Finn's or the 9807 phone number says if he has friends that are Crips.
Could you explain a little bit of that spelling gentleman?
So I went into this during my direct week where we were talking about the gang history, blood gang history, where bloods were created in West Coast, California to five Crips.
That's why there's derogatory terms between the two sides.
But there's been multiple rappers, multiple reform young members who have come out and have squashed these beefs, right?
They've come out and they've united the community.
And although they still use these terms toward each other, like anyone would if they're upset that someone else and they know that person's affiliation at something right now.
There is no ongoing gang war between Crips and Bloods.
There might be specific ones in certain cities where maybe one city is occupied by both Crips and Bloods and they're fighting for territory.
But that could also be with blood on blood and violence.
There's plenty of cities in Brown County where there's six or seven different blood sets all fighting for the same territory.
And there's no allegiance towards each other because you belong to your set.
Your set is going to affect the other set because it's about you, your collective, your group, making money, not everyone else's.
So the whole Crip versus Blood thing, historically, yes, that was the thing.
Crips versus Bloods, Crips versus Latin Kings, Crisps versus Bloods versus Latin Kings.
UVN was created for protection against Latin kings.
The UVN now falls under people nation.
People nation has the Latin kings under it.
So Latin kings and the bloods are now allies.
So gangs evolve, allegiances evolve.
Wars happen the same way when countries are sometimes at peace, and then sometimes countries are at war.
It's the same thing.
It's no different.
These are just organizations motivated by money, and they're going to do what they can to make this money.
And you said in the one in the state defense asked you about it that was red, you are family now.
Right.
What does that mean to you as an expert in gangs?
They're calling him family.
It means he's been accepted as a member.
And on top of that, the emails show that not only was he brought in as a member as a foot soldier, you know, at the low level, he was then bumped up to the next step in the G-Shen lineup, the G-Shang ranking system to the Asfaris are.
So that's one step above.
That means he must have, or he did, not must have.
He did.
Because they're not just going to promote him to Askari because that would have taken approval from the top, right?
Some guy at the bottom is not going to be able to scar you now.
You can just start getting out ranks.
Can't get someone staying unless you're the guy that's painting off that steam.
He's explaining gang structure right now and gang rankings and gang politics, which the defense attorney tried to kind of brush under the rug, like, why is he having Crip friends if he's a blood?
So this detective is kind of explaining this.
And come on, man, let's keep it honest.
We know that there's bloods and crips that are friends, guys.
Like New York City is a perfect example of this.
There's literally the Wu.
Just so y'all know, Pop Smoke, right, was a Crip, but some of his best friends were Bloods.
Why?
Because in New York, the Bloods and the Crip actually fly together under one big umbrella called the Wu.
So it's not uncommon to have Bloods and Crips that rock with each other that actually go ahead and attack other blood and Crip sets.
But in the New York situation in Brooklyn in specific, it's to form an alliance against the GDs.
But you guys understand the picture.
It's not the typical bloods always hate Crips.
No, that's not true.
In some situations, they even work together and are under one big umbrella gang.
And the Wu could be an example of that.
So that's what the detective is trying to explain here: that allegiance has changed based on city, individuals, circumstances, etc.
It's not as binary as the defense attorney tried to make it to alleviate his client melee of responsibility.
So he obviously was given the thumbs up to at least one step.
Okay.
No further questions at this time around.
Thank you, Mr. Food and Six Hughes.
Thanks, John.
Thank you, sir.
You got to step down.
Thank you.
All right.
Looks like the detective is finally done testifying.
And he's been there for a few days, guys.
All right, so we're going to fast forward.
See where they're at now.
This case should be the truth, the whole truth, and not the vote.
And Mr. Apple Metjugal, M-H-T-D-O-U-G-A-L-L.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Doctor, we're outside the presence of the jury, but I'm president more than the attorney.
And this is the attorney, and we're trying to find out if there's some photographs that state offense to you have trial.
So I'm trying to find out whether or not the photographs that are in question.
Basically, you need to illustrate or explain your testimony and whether or not there are a few pickets in there that you don't may not.
All right, here we go.
Guys, what you guys are about to witness right now is probably going to be the turning point of this trial.
The woman that they just swore in, right?
Everything you say is going to be the truth, you know, nothing but the truth to help you God, blah, blah, blah.
See, that's them putting her under oath.
I'm almost certain because they said, Doctor, this is more than likely the medical examiner that's a prosecution's witness.
This lady is going to be very important to this trial.
Okay.
If I think they're going to do what I think they're going to do, excuse me, if they're going to do what I think they're going to do, which they're going to show pictures here, they're probably going to show some pretty graphic images.
So, viewer discretion to advise if they do.
I'm going to warn y'all for some of you guys out there that might be squeamish.
But yeah, this is going to be a very important witness.
So, the detective is officially done.
Now, we're on to the medical examiner.
Let's go.
And basically, there's multiple photographs suggesting the same thing to you.
That's why she got that face mask on, bro.
believes in the scandemic.
And also, I understand there's some of the pictures are external and some are internal.
And whether or not you need all the photographs and to explain or illustrate your testimony, that's really what I'm trying to find out.
So, we showed the doctor that the photographs are in question.
All right, so what they're doing right now, guys, is they're kind of getting the witness prepared.
Hey, these are the pictures.
What pictures are we going to show?
What pictures are we not going to show?
Blah, blah, blah.
She's a prosecution's witness, so she's going to go on direct.
She's looking at them now.
So, her testimony hasn't officially begun, but that's kind of what's going on here right now.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, you all could already see some of the photos here.
Yeah, so and they're probably going to blow them up as we go through them.
All right.
So, get your popcorn, guys, because this is going to be a very important witness.
This is going to be a really important witness in this trial, man.
I'm glad that we caught her from the beginning as she got sworn in.
So, we ain't missing shit right now.
Looking at the circle's first turn should expect to be confronted by photographs of their accomplishments.
And in the other case that the state cited, which is Williams found at 77, 3rd, 72.
We got 1.4k.
Y'all watching, man.
You guys better like this goddamn video because I haven't slept in, and we're about to get into one of the most important witnesses.
And y'all are about to watch this with Myron Gaines, former special agent, Homeland Screen Investigations.
We're about to break this thing all the way down.
There's no one better to be watching this trial with right now.
So, sit back, get your fucking popcorn, open your mind.
We're going to go through this thing together.
Like the video, let's hit 1400.
Get 100% engagement so this video gets pushed in the algorithm and more people can find this shit versus all the other losers that don't have any experience that are live streaming this trial right now.
Let's get it, baby.
Y'all getting this content right now with me having zero sleep.
Special episode of Fed Reacts at 11:30 in the morning.
This is normally I want to go to sleep and it just the court said where photographs are relevant.
The trial court must determine whether the gruesomeness of the portrayal is so inflammatory as to create an undue prejudice in the minds of the jurors and distract them from a fair and compassionate consideration of evidence unless graphic photos are available to illustrate the same point.
The relevance someone asks, is there an audience behind them?
Yes, guys, the courtroom is packed right now.
The standard by no means constitutes a card blanche for the admission of the gruesome photos.
Judge, there's no question that the victims in this case died of gunshot moves.
Primarily, one gunshot moon was fatal on each one of the alleged victims in this case.
In fact, this doctor will testify.
Oh, wait.
Hold on.
Is the defense admitted?
Because right now, the defense is talking, guys.
They're trying to not get these gruesome photos shown because they don't want to make the jury biased or emotional, which is, you know, obviously they're going to do that.
But I don't know if y'all just caught that.
The defense just admitted that the victims died from one fatal shot each, not from the drive-by shooting.
He might have just hung himself right there.
I don't know if y'all caught that.
I'm half asleep and I caught that shit.
But if you guys remember, in this case, what did they allege?
They were victims of a drive-by shooting.
But you know, this medical examiner is about to fucking testify that them shots came from inside the car.
They got shot in the fucking head at close range.
Here we go.
You just conceded that they did, in fact, die from the fatal shots and not the goddamn drive-by.
And that's the fence counsel.
But why is he fighting so hard to say this?
Because he doesn't want these gruesome pictures to be shown by the jury because it might make them biased towards his client.
I believe that this is a rather unusual case in that she could determine which shot occurred first in both of the victims.
And they were the fatal shot in both of the victims.
Therefore, the introduction of all these other photographs are irrelevant, prejudicial, and we would object to them.
Of course, you'll object to them because they're going to make your client look real bad when they see all that blood.
Doctor, my question, I guess, is the photographs we'll present to you.
They've been marked.
How are they marked, ma'am?
Yo, the defense is shaking in their boots right.
They don't want those pictures in, guys.
They don't want the pictures in, baby.
So defense counsel has placed a sticking note on any of the objecting to of the 28 that have been selected.
Triple C for identification.
All right, so if you want to do them one at a time.
That's what I'd like to do because if you can show the photograph and may I approach you made this photo.
Doctor, you're not concerned or intimidated if the attorney can help you.
Rather than just give it yourself.
They're asking her, oh, are you okay with them approaching you with that mask on?
LOL.
Come on, man.
Just stay six feet.
That's fine.
Just stay six feet.
Oh, my God.
So this first picture of the sticky note actually is the face shot with the number, any case number that is unique to this case.
So what this does is it shows that this number will be in every single photo.
Therefore, I think it's needed.
Thank you.
And is there any duplicates of that photo showing the case number?
Every photo will have this case number.
Understood.
But this is the face of the decedent.
That's how we identify him.
And that's what this photo is for.
Thank you.
So this next series of photographs are the clean hand photographs.
Okay, so just so y'all know, we just crossed 1,500 live viewers.
The judge, so here's the judges, y'all know, obviously, the defense counsel and the prosecutor.
What they're basically going over right now is what pictures are going to be shown to the jury.
And they're kind of going through them right now here.
And they're doing that because the defense does not want all these photos to be shown to the jury because they fear that it's going to make, it's going to be, they said themselves might be prejudicial, right?
But the medical examiner, right, she's the prosecution witness, she's saying, I need to at least show the faces so that they can identify the deceased.
So this is going to be interesting.
We take these photographs to document whether there are any injuries to the hands.
You know, were they in a scuffle?
Is there any hemorrhaging contusions?
If that's a line of questioning, then I need these photos to show that.
And so, Dr. McCabe says clean hands.
You can do it explaining to you his honor.
I can't.
So in the course of a suspicious case, when we take photographs, we do what's called overall photographs initially.
So those are usually bloody hands, right?
Bloody defects, bloody body.
When we clean them up, we take a second round of photographs that are clean photographs.
So these photographs are the clean photographs.
I don't see any blood on any of these photographs.
May I inquire as to how many photographs?
What is the doctor?
So these are the clean photographs of the hands.
Yes, you got it.
How many photographs of the two hands are in that pile?
So there's a front and back.
So there's one front, one pole, and a side to show every piece of each hand to show that there's no injuries.
The question is, how many photos in total of the hands are there?
So there are six photographs, one at the polymer surface of each hand, one at the other surface of each hand, and one at the side of each hand.
And there's no injuries on the hands.
That's correct.
But it would have jacked that place in this.
And it has no relevance.
Thank you.
That objection is not overruled.
No photographs are longer.
Clean photographs.
There's no blood.
There's no bruiseness or anything like that associated with those photographs, Council.
So objection, though, it's overruled.
Did you draw a rule as to the face establishing shot?
I understand the purpose of it.
It's not a gruesome photograph.
So these next two photographs are of the same wound.
The difference is one is an orientation shot, which is this one, and then one is a close-up.
If you show just the close-up so I can talk about the characteristics of that wound, there's no way for me to show where it is on the body.
Just so y'all know, the defense is going to do everything in their fucking power to make sure the violent photos are not shown to the jury.
That's why they're doing this.
The defense is going to fight this tooth and nail, guys.
All right, they better earn their money today.
And is that what you're suggesting, Doctor, that you show the orientation as well as to a close-up of the injury that you need, those pictures to illustrate that?
I do.
Thank you.
What's next?
So, you know, there's three.
You can take one out.
Sure.
At the end of the day, the judge is going to, you know, be the deciding fact, the last deciding official on what gets shown and what doesn't.
But obviously, he's overlooking it, trying to be fair to both parties here.
He wants to be able to show enough evidence that illustrates the crime without necessarily being unduly suggestive.
Am I correct, Council?
There's a sticker on one and a left hand, I believe.
So I would argue you can take one of these out because both of them I can see.
We see the ear on the left-hand side.
So you're telling me you don't need both?
I don't need no, sir.
So just limit.
and in terms of the one with the scale or with the width.
No sticker.
Yeah, no sticker, sorry.
I don't know if there's an objection to it.
Same arguments on the two pictures of D. One is an orientation shot, so it shows you where on the body this exit wound is.
The second is a close-up so you can describe the characteristics of the wound.
And are you telling me, Doctor, that you need both photographs through guys?
The reason the judge is standing is so that he can look at the pictures.
That's why.
Illustrator, explain your testimony.
I would prefer both because you can tell in the close-up that this looks like a laceration, which is consistent with an exit wound.
I can explain it from this one, but you can't really see it.
Thank you.
Mr. Corner Lyline, both of those photographs, she's saying she needs to explain the testimony.
Yes, that's the way I understand it.
I believe she said she could explain it on either one of the photographs.
I can explain that it's a laceration on each one in order for everyone involved to be able to see why it's a laceration instead of, yeah, that's the laceration over there.
I think for me that thank you.
Again, these photographs show it in to depict an injury externally.
It's not an internal.
I don't know that they're so gruesome as to inflate the jury.
Something along these lines.
I did tell the court and I was putting a stick on all of the internal injuries, I believe, you're looking at right now in direct arguments.
Yes, sir.
And I'm standing at a distance from you because you are not in that 10-day grace here.
I'm not.
I'm going to move a little further away.
That's fine.
So normally.
Oh, wow.
Normally, Judge, I would say that internal photographs are not needed.
The reason that these photographs are important in this particular case is that the first shot, which was to the back of the neck, when you look at the unders of the skin around that injury, there's hemorrhage, which means I can tell you that he was alive when that shot was fired.
The second shot.
Ah, I think that's she's talking about Sack Chaser's wound because I know the guy that was sitting next to Melly, Chris, light-skinned guy, he got shot in the cheek and it exited out of his brain.
So it basically went in this way and then came out this way.
And then I think Sack Chaser got shot in the back of the neck and it came out the head.
Because keep in mind, Melly was in the back behind the driver's seat passenger.
So Sack Chaser was in the front seat, front seat passenger.
So he shot directly at him like this.
And then he shot Chris, who was directly to his right.
So that makes sense.
But yeah, she has to show some of these gruesome photos to show that they were in fact alive when they got shot.
Third shot went to the shoulder.
The second shot that went through the heart and the left lung.
The organs prove that there was no heartbeat when those shots were inflicted.
So if we are.
Now she's talking about them drive-by shootings.
The fence is shaking in their boots.
Long crowd network.
What y'all niggas got to say now, baby?
What y'all got to say now?
Oh, Millie's going to beat this case, blah, blah, blah.
And here's the thing, guys.
I like Melly.
I like his music.
I think he's musically talented and a fucking musical genius.
However, when you look at the facts, it's damn near irresputable, guys, that he committed this crime.
And y'all are going to see right now with the medical examiner.
That's why the defense is doing, they're trying to, let's not show these pictures, blah, blah, blah.
They're trying to fight it.
If anybody is trying to say that one shot came was alive.
By the way, there's only 1.2k likes.
We got 1500 plus y'all in here.
So like the goddamn video.
We're about to be at 1600.
So like it, goddamn it.
Let's hit 1.5k list.
It's go 100% engagement.
So I don't got to keep asking.
I really appreciate it.
Because the more you like it, guys, the more this gets pushed in the algorithm to other people to see.
And we're probably going to get demonetized today, Boyos, because they're about to show some violence today.
And it is what it is.
All right.
I'm going to show it to y'all.
So we're going to get demonetized too.
So at least you could do like this joint.
When that shot was shot and the other two were after he passed away sometime later, the only way to show that with the photos is to show you that in the lung, in the heart, where the projectile from the shoulder was retrieved, that there's absolutely no hemorrhage around any of those organs or wounds.
Can you do it with just the lung picture?
You know, do you need every single one of them?
I mean, the heart, absolutely no hemorrhage.
Your heart's got all the bloods right there.
If you're alive and it's beating, it's going to bleed.
So I'm sorry, man.
You're on sure.
I'm trying to understand, Doctor, whether or not you need these pictures to illustrate the testimony and whether you need all of them.
If I want to show you that there's hemorrhage here and he was alive and that's why there's hemorrhage and there's nothing on this lung, so he's dead when that shot's fired, then I need these photographs.
Can we parse it down to half of them?
I mean, you know, you want to show that there's no hemorrhage in the heart, the path of that bullet is the same projectile.
You know, you could show one.
So you would be removing perhaps the lung photo.
I think this doctor don't give a fuck.
She want to show everything, guys.
The lung is probably the best photo of all of them because there's no hemorrhage there.
I think you need the one that shows that there was a beating heart when the bullet went through the head.
And at least one, I would argue, I don't argue, right?
I would suggest whatever the right word is.
This photograph is the projectile from the right back.
No hemorrhage around it where we get it out.
So that's the third shot.
So one of these and one of the second shot and one of the first shot to show the difference in this is a beating heart, these are not.
If that's something that needs to be shown the photographs and how I came to that conclusion, I'm done.
We are not contesting that the first shot was the fatal shot.
The other two shots, which he is referring to, are from the internal examination to verify that.
We're not contesting that at all.
Those are very gruesome photographs, have nothing to do with because the victim in this group is dead already.
So, unless we're contesting that, there's no reason other than to prejudice this journey of the gruesomeness of this autopsy.
So, Dr. Going back to those photographs to illustrate or explain your testimony.
My question is to you all of these photographs.
These are some of them, these are the photographs that I look at that are somewhat gruesome.
I agree.
And so, my thought is if there's a way you can pare down those photographs, show what you're trying to get across, which shot was a fatal shot, and how to establish that.
I don't have a problem with that.
In fact, I'd appreciate that.
But my thought is, really, you're the witness, you know what you need to explain your testimony.
And so, I need to know that.
So, Your Honor, it's not about which shot is the fatal shot.
I mean, we have people shot 20 times, whatever, all the time.
If it's yo, the fact that they've been going back and forth for this long on these pictures tells me that these photos are really bad, guys.
Like, really bad.
You know, all at the same time, around the same time within, you know, a minute, two minutes, five minutes, every single one of those gunshot wounds is going to have hemorrhage.
Okay, so it's not that he's shot in the head, his heart stops immediately, and you know, the other two shots come within seconds, and those have no hemorrhage.
I can't tell you what the time frame is between the headshot and the other shots, but it's a significant amount of time so that he's passed away, there's no circulation, then these shots come.
So, it's not 10 shots.
The first shot was to the head, so it killed him, and the other nine were a minute later, and none of those have hemorrhage.
So, that's why this is unique in that we can say which the first shot is.
So, I think you can take some of these out, but if the line of questioning is going to be, and I don't know what it is, right?
But if it's going to be, was it, you know, seconds later that the second, third shot came, or was it minutes later?
You have to be able to show that there's no hemorrhage.
Can I ask a question with the doctor regarding those photographs of the internal photographs?
Yes, sir.
And any of those are duplications?
They're not duplications in pictures, but I can show it with less photographs because it's the same wound path.
That's fine.
So, if you can show it with less photographs, that's what I would appreciate.
May I inquire one other question for your honor?
Sure.
You can't tell if it was seconds or minutes later, correct?
It's not seconds.
I mean, you know, that because I've done hundreds of gunshot wound cases where they're shot multiple times and they all have hemorrhage.
Nice try, defense.
In those cases, you have not been able to determine which is the first shot, second shot, and third shot, correct?
That's correct.
Okay, so in other words, this is an unusual case wherein you can tell what the first shot is.
And in fact, I think you testified this is like one in a million.
Let's say three.
I have three in 12, 13 years, where I can tell which shot came first because the dramatic difference in the characteristics of the first gunshot wound and the second and third.
It's not seconds.
Hey, it's some time, but I can't tell you what that time is.
It could be 10 seconds, it could be five minutes.
Could be five minutes, could be 30 minutes.
And it also could be less than a minute.
I don't know that I say less than a minute.
And what are you basing that on?
Excuse me, Council.
This is, I assume you proposed her a long time ago.
You deposed this witness, correct?
Yes.
All right.
So this, we're talking about photographs.
Not about the other issue.
My job here is to...
Yo, I mean, I ain't gonna lie, I'm gonna give it to that defensive attorney for trying.
Like, he's trying to, bro, he's really trying hard to not get these pictures in.
And what he's basically trying to argue is like, okay, well, how do you know the difference between the shots that were fatal versus the shots that came after in the drive-through?
Was it 10 minutes?
Seconds later?
Blah, blah, blah.
Doctor's like, come on, bro.
I know that the fatal shot happened and then a significant amount of time passed, then these other shots came in.
And I need to show all the pictures so I can show y'all what a deadly gunshot wound looks like and then what a gunshot wound post-mortem looks like.
That's what she's trying to argue.
But the defense is trying to say, well, how do you know?
Like, what's the difference in between?
So, again, nice job by defense counsel, but from me listening to this argument in my professional experience, she's going to have to show both sets to show you guys the drastic difference between a gunshot wound when you're alive versus one when you're dead.
And the reason why she has to do this is because remember, Mellie and Bortland's story is they got hit in a drive-by shooting at a certain time, but the wounds don't match that.
So she's going to have to show both.
It's coming in.
In my opinion, I think they're going to have to show both.
But let's see what happens.
I could be wrong.
Whether the photographs are too gruesome, and my authority is that these photographs, the internal ones, are we can do that or have some quality that many would say is gruesome.
However, we're going to try to limit those.
I don't care so prejudicial or so gruesome as to create any type of prejudice in your mind that the autopsy photographs trying to explain the death.
So in any event, Doctor, if you could specify which ones you need to do for your testimony and which one you can eliminate.
I can, I mean, the attorney's going to come up here as well.
These are three different, well, these are all the same shots.
So this is probably the lung.
That's the one you want.
And so just show that, and so it's clear for the record that it's a photo of the lung that's been removed from the body and it's not encased in any sort of, you know, hey, shout out to you, Untouchable.
I mean, I'm going to keep it a thousand with y'all.
I love academics, but yeah, no one's going to come close to breaking this case down and this trial down to the same molecular level that I'm about to do for y'all.
So like the goddamn video.
So yeah, shout out to academics.
But we're the best over here at FedReacts, goddammit.
It's our internal.
And so in terms of the lung shot and the heart shot, are those from the same moon path?
Correct.
So all of these four photographs are from the same moon path.
So one is, this is gunshot room three, this is gunshot room one, and this is gunshot room two.
Okay, so you keep trying to taking out these three photo of the heart with the trajectory rod through it, the photo of the ribs posting a board that's coming, and the photo of the lungs still in place in the heart correctly.
Yep, figure out.
It might be all actually for the heart and lung.
So those three would take out, and you would just need the other three to explain the differences.
Correct.
All right, so those photographs that are documented to you that have been excluded, how many in number are there?
They've been excluded.
One, two, three, four, five.
So that brings down to 23 photos.
Thank you.
Dr. Oakley, 23 photos that remain in your entity.
Do you need those photographs to explain your and illustrate your testimony?
Is that correct?
That's correct.
Thank you.
All right, so you ready to start again?
We just need to update the digital version of that.
All right, looks like if I heard that correctly, they've whittled it down to 23 photos.
Yep.
So the record is clear, Your Honor.
May I have a standing objection to those photographs that saw him on the can you identify for the record?
Let's just be clear which ones they are.
Does the state have any objection to a standing objection?
No, Your Honor.
So there's no objection to standing objections, but I just like somehow those ones with the yellow tab that the defense was objecting to would be noted.
Yes.
That's a good idea of numbering them and I've heard them by the number.
So if there's no question on the front, on a side note, I suggest we let the jury start very much standing.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I have no that the jurors will be able to see and that the prosecution will be able to use and then all right guys now we got to go on live again.
It looks like they took a short recess with why these guys are commentating the pictures.
And so right now they're just going over which pictures the court is allowing for the medical examiner to examiner to be able to testify to.
And Bob, how important is this what it's going to be?
Well, she's going to say that it was a murder and she's going to say how the murder happened and how it happened.
And may ultimately be what's going to lay a foundation for the other linked up evidence connecting the defendants to that.
So I think I think that's why she's going to be a critical witness in this.
And Bridget, we have about 30 seconds.
If there's any determination that the shots came from inside the car, that's bad for the defendant.
Oh, it definitely is bad for the defendant.
I can't even stress that enough.
Yes, it is.
So and again, so let me just follow up with that, Bridget.
If she comes back and says that the evidence looks like the shots came from that trajectory, from the back part of the car, how would the prosecution fight against that?
Excuse me, how would the defense fight against that?
Yeah, if they did, I would say that the defense counsel would have to go and talk more about, you know, if there were other shots that were fired from coming outside of the vehicle.
And if they can also talk about the fact that Millie was sitting there, but we don't know how real quick and a little snack here, guys.
The Gorilla Mind protein bar, of course, the peanut butter flavor, because I'm sitting in Chris's sheet seats.
So hopefully I won't stutter as much as him when I eat this peanut butter.
How long he was sitting in the vehicle in that position.
And so we don't know when he left or, you know, right.
So both sides muddying the water.
Use the code fresh guys at checkout GorillaMind.com.
But GorillaMind.com slash fresh and then use the code fresh to check out.
Get a discount, my friends.
There's a little bit.
Bridget, Bob, really appreciate you both.
Your perspective has been excellent.
I'm going to be signing off.
You're in great hands.
And Jeanette Levy's up next with our live Q&A show.
We'll be back.
All right.
Let's hit the chats while we wait for that.
I see three chats here.
Guys, if you want to get your question, ask it right now.
Heavy Metal Hotep goes, finally able to super chat.
Can't save for the stream.
Save the stream, but you got to get the stuff from Sunday's Fetish Stream.
Last night's Monday show, just want to show some love.
Keep doing your thing, bro.
Thank you so much, Heavy Metal.
Karsten Krofsen, sorry.
Shout out for Norway.
W. Gunnatello.
That is definitely Gunnatello on the stand.
Also, free tape.
My unmatched perspicacity.
Cover my sheer indefatigability.
Shout out to you, my friend.
And then, then, boy, CI, we are very happy indeed.
Makes it easier.
Of course.
All right.
Let's get back to it.
All right.
Looks like they're on a break right now.
I don't know how long the break is going to be, but let's see here.
I'll go ahead and answer some of y'all questions that you guys have.
If you guys got questions, go ahead and send them in, and I'll go ahead and answer them.
you know i think this is a good time for a recap so let's go ahead and recap what's went down so far okay number one do me a favor ninjas like the video we got 1.4k likes but uh 1600 plus y'all in here um still haven't slept yet shout out to insomnia but the first thing that came on guys was the undercover detective from bear county sheriff's office um he wore a mask first time he
testified he's been testifying for a few days now um and the reason why he testified with a mask on for the first day and the reason why the camera doesn't show his face is because he has a $50,000 hit on him by a gang because he operated as undercover in these gang investigations and probably put a bunch of people in jail and they want him dead now.
But he's a subject matter expert and gang culture, especially the G Shine Bloods, which Melly is a alleged member of.
Now you're probably wondering why the fuck does this matter, Meyer?
The reason why it matters is because for the state to get the death penalty on Melly, they need to prove that he was a gang member.
Okay.
It's very important for them to be able to prove that.
So what they did was they spent quite a bit of time with the subject matter expert going through Melly's text messages with other known gang members, okay?
Gino and Herc to be exact, showing Melly communicating with these individuals and using gang vernacular, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
The defense, on cross-examination, asked the detective, hey, well, are you sure that my member is a gang because there was also text messages in there that were fairly dismissive, whether it was Melly not responding to them or gang members saying, we don't know you like that, blah, blah, blah.
The defense did a fairly good job of creating some doubt as to Melly's gang standing.
Now, my professional opinion on that entire situation, we've seen in other cases that you don't necessarily have to be identified as a full-fledged gang member to be charged with gang racketeering laws.
Example A, Daniel Hernandez, a.k.a.
Tekashi69, as y'all know, back in 2018, he got arrested by Homeland Security Investigation, HSI, my former agency.
It was our New York office that picked him up.
For Rico, and he was never a full-fledged blood.
He admits this.
Other members of the gang admit this.
He was just merely an associate that had them around him for protection, and he funded them.
But he still suffered the same consequences as other gang members, even though he wasn't necessarily, and what I mean by same consequences, he was still charged under the same exact statutes.
The reason why he didn't get the time is because he cooperated.
But had he not cooperated, he would have got the same amount of time as all the other gang members.
Why do I say this?
The point is, I'm going in the weeds here.
Oh, here we go.
But the reason why I say this is just to let y'all know that you don't have to be a full-fledged, a full-fledged gang member to get charged racketeering laws.
Okay, that's number one.
Associates could get it just two.
It doesn't matter.
Now, after he testified, and then the prosecutor brought him on direct and clarified some of the things that the defense tried to kind of muddy in the water.
After he testified, the medical examiner came in and was just sworn in.
She's going to be probably the most important witness in this case.
And then what they did, since they know that she's so important, she's going to be pivotal.
The defense is fighting to keep some of them goddamn photos out of the trial because they don't want them to impact the jury on an emotional level and be prejudicial towards Mellie.
So that's what we just went through.
It looks like she's going to get ready to testify here after the lunch break, but they pretty much agreed on 23 photos.
So there you go, my friends.
That is the summary.
Like the video, let's get back to what's going on here on Law and Crime Network.
I'm Anjanette Levy, and thanks for being with us this noon on Law and Crime.
And we are taking your questions this hour in the double murder trial.
Shout to Leo Runs, two bucks, myron gains a goat.
Of YNW Mellie, the South Florida rapper accused of murdering two of his friends, two of his lifelong friends, Chris Thomas Jr. and Anthony Williams.
They went by YNW Juvie and YNW Sack Chaser.
Mellie, as we have been telling you over the last couple of weeks, faces the possibility of the death penalty if convicted of the October 26, 2018 double homicides.
And Mellie faces the possibility of the death penalty under a lower threshold recently signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida.
So the jury say they convict him of double murder.
For him to get a death sentence, they'd only have to be eight to four.
That would have to be the minimum split rather than 12 to zero, the unanimous decision that was previously required under the law.
As I mentioned, we're taking your questions this lunch hour, as we always do.
So keep them coming to us on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
And we'll get to as many of them as we can during the lunch hour.
We have a great panel here today.
Terry Austin of Law & Crime is down at the Broward County Courthouse covering the trial for us.
Bob Bianchi is a former prosecutor, currently a defense attorney and a host here at Law & Crime.
And Mina Lola is here with us.
She is a host at SiriusXM and basically a Mellie expert, if you will.
But Terry, let's start off with you.
What's been going on in the courtroom this morning that's really stood out to you?
So we started out this morning with Danny Polo back on that stand without his mask.
And...
And what the prosecution was trying to do actually is to show that at the end of the day, when she did her redirect, that he is basing his information, his conclusions on everything, not just one thing, not just a photo or a video that Mellie might have been in.
What defense is trying to do is to say, look, you're jumping to these conclusions.
You're speculating.
There's nothing here that says he was a gang member.
Basically, you have gang members who are chasing him.
He's not chasing them.
So that was the end of, I think, that testimony.
And I think that's what the jury came away with.
We also know that that ended this morning, and we are about to see clear gang signs throwing out the bees.
Rebecca McDougall, she is a doctor.
She's going to come onto the stand.
She's going to go through the autopsy photos.
We started out with 138 photos.
That was narrowed down to 28.
And now there are 23.
The judge wanted to make sure we kept out any photos that were too gruesome for that jury to take a look at.
So after lunch, we're going to see the doctor.
23 out of 28.
Holy.
And this is going to be a really important witness to state, Terry, because we've brought this up really a couple of times recently.
That the ME, according to the state, according to the prosecutor, is going to testify that the fatal shots to both Juvie and Sack Chaser came from within that vehicle, from the back seat, not from the outside of the vehicle.
And so that's some pretty critical testimony to the state's case.
Yes, and not only that, she says this is the rare case, and we did this outside of the presence of the jury, a little voir dire of what her testimony was going to be, basically, to go through those photos.
But she said that it's the first time after, you know, many, many years, only a few times has she ever been able to tell what is the first shot.
And she said she could do that because of the way the bullet went in.
And apparently, if it goes in, you have some coagulation, and you can tell that the person is still alive.
But if the bullet goes in and the person is not alive, it doesn't have that sort of gathering of the blood.
And so she said she could tell where the first fatal shot came.
And then sometime later, the other bullets came into the bodies of Anthony Williams and Christopher Thomas.
A very interesting testimony, but very difficult testimony, we know, for the families of Juvie and Sack Chaser to hear.
It's just absolutely awful kind of listening to how they died.
Let's get to your questions now.
We've got a lot of great ones coming in, so keep them coming.
This question will come to you first, Bob.
I really think this is a great question for you.
It comes from Radagas2887 on YouTube.
Radagas asks, could this case be used as a RICO case into the larger gang network?
And I think that's a pretty interesting question given this whole thing about the bloods and the G-shine blood set.
This is a good question.
I'll answer this.
I want to see what their answers are and they'll clarify if anything's wrong.
That we've heard about in text messages and things like that.
Yeah, the answer to that is yes.
And gang cases have been prosecuted under RICO.
The reason why I don't think it's going to happen here is they're already going forward with the trial.
Typically speaking, prosecutors are going to want to move up a ladder and a chain of command in order to get to the RICO case.
Right now, these people are on trial or he's on trial.
So they're losing a main witness with respect to that.
And that person no longer has the right to Fifth Amendment immunity, which typically prosecutors would give under those circumstances in order to build a RICO case.
But we have prosecuted cases as RICO cases.
Not that it can't happen in the future, but it wouldn't be surprising to me that they made that offer prior to this trial and he refused to cooperate.
So the quality of the RICO case is only as good as the witnesses you can put on.
But what about information gleaned maybe from the cell phones and stuff like that?
Would you pass that on to maybe the feds or somebody like that?
Yeah, I mean, the state is capable of bringing its own RICO charges.
And if the state doesn't feel it's got the qualitative nature of the evidence to go forward, I can tell you from having been a prosecutor working with the feds, they're not going to be interested in taking a case on that the state itself felt, if it's true, that there wasn't enough proof beyond the reasonable doubt.
The feds typically like to be involved in cases that are absolutely airtight and when there can't be any possibility, at least in their minds, of a not guilty verdict.
So when I've had really good cases and I brought RICO and I had all the evidence, we would get a phone call from the feds to say, hey, maybe you want to consider giving it to us so that we could try it with a more draconian penalties.
And of course, you could try your case afterwards.
Not happening here makes me suspect because every witness that goes on and everything that happens in this trial could affect the outcome of a federal RICO charge.
So I don't see it.
Interesting.
Let's go on to.
All right, he's incorrect there, and I'll tell you why.
He's correct about some things and incorrect about other things.
He's clearly a prosecutor at the state level based on what he just said.
Now, the thing is, let's say they do an investigation into gang members, right?
That Melly is communicating with.
They can absolutely use those messages that they had with Melly to build a racketeering case.
And if they do establish that he did these killings, right, to increase his stature with the gang or whatever, these murders and these communications that these individuals had with Melly can all be wrapped up later down the road in an overall gang conspiracy.
So I see what he's saying.
He's speaking about: can they use these particular text messages in this particular case for a RICO case?
The answer to that is no, in that small aspect.
But from a former federal investigator standpoint, I can absolutely use those messages in a larger scale investigation where I'm establishing who members are, hierarchies, individual statuses and roles in the organization.
It's very obvious here that Melly is a financer/slash potential member, lower level, lower mid-level guy that uses the gang for protection, credibility, et cetera.
So I can absolutely use that to illustrate the depth of the gang, the tentacles of the gang, the strength of the gang, the financial capability of the gang, the reach of the gang.
So I can absolutely use this evidence to build a separate RICO case on other individuals that Melly may have communicated or been in contact with.
Okay.
And that's the difference between the feds and the state.
You just basically heard a state prosecutor talk.
I'm telling y'all how the feds actually do investigations.
Okay.
So you can use that stuff to build a larger level case.
Absolutely.
And that's why I disagree with him.
Everything else he said, though, is correct.
But let's get back to it.
Yo, like the goddamn video, bro.
Y'all ain't going to get sauced like this anywhere else on the fucking internet.
Shader ain't going to tell y'all this.
Fucking CNN, Fox News, even Law and Crime Network ain't going to give y'all some of the sauce I'm giving you guys.
I've actually done racketeering gang cases as the case agent.
So this is, yeah, this is this is my lane.
There's some other questions.
Excuse underscore my underscore beauty underscore TT from Instagram.
Mina, why does Melly have to get the death penalty instead of prison?
So of course a female would ask a stupid question like this, but stupid.
Carry on.
The death penalty is just an option if he's convicted.
It doesn't mean he has to get it.
Right.
Well, the change in the laws in the state is why this is even on the table.
Now, obviously, there has to be certain criteria to make this a death penalty case.
And it seems like the people involved feel like there is enough criteria to make this a death penalty case.
What I will say is with death penalty, it has to be beyond a reasonable doubt.
So the evidence has to be there.
So, and then it's scary now with the death penalty because before, as we've talked about, it used to have to be unanimous in the state of Florida.
Now the threshold has been lowered.
And it's now eight people that have to decide.
Just so no, this is one of the girls that's been kind of roasting the prosecution saying like, they don't have any evidence.
So I want to see what her tune is going to be after this medical examiner testifies.
Side if Melly does in fact get the death penalty, if he gets found guilty.
So it's definitely scary to think about that.
And I'm hoping that the evidence that is presented is airtight so that if this is even on the table, they are a thousand percent sure.
And the evidence shows that he did in fact commit this murder.
And then they will evaluate if the death penalty will be applied here in the penalty phase.
But I'm worried about this and I'm hoping that the evidence shows if we do get to that point.
Our next question is going to you, Terry.
At Joe, Mama asks from YouTube, did Melly open up or respond to any other text during that 20-day period?
If he didn't, could it cast doubt that it's his phone?
Well, there's a lot of doubt, Anginette, that that is his phone, or rather, that he's using the phone.
We know the phone is registered in his mother's name.
We know that he has not been in possession of the phone the entire time.
We know that other members of the gang actually, we talked about Kirk, we talked about, you know, Goon, we talked about various other members who are trying to attract Melly into the gang and Melly's not responding.
And we definitely know that there are times after the incident occurred where he didn't have possession of the phone.
So the question is really whether or not you can attribute some of those messages to Melly when he was not holding the phone.
I do think that the defense established fairly well which of those messages came from Melly.
And most of the messages, he was not responding.
And it actually came out on the stand through Polo, who said Danny Polo obviously is the undercover agent that he didn't want to mention it, but some of the time undercover detective.
And we know that he didn't have access to Pepe of mine when they call state investigators, the deputies agents.
No, he's a Broward County Sheriff's Office deputy, more than likely a detective that works undercover.
His phone because the phone was taken away from him.
And you can make the implication from that.
But absolutely, some of those messages came from other people.
Interesting.
Okay, this is a good one for you, Bob.
Put your, I guess, your prosecutor and your defense attorney hat on since you've been both.
At Don Prasa from YouTube asks, what happens if Cortland and Melly both say it was the other one?
And they've kind of pointed the finger a little bit at Cortland, Bortland throughout this case.
Yeah, no, I've prosecuted these cases.
And, you know, it's funny.
Some people say, how do you choose between one or the other?
Well, the prosecutors are going to have to make a choice.
Hopefully they're going to do that based on evidence that's solid and will convince a jury.
But this kind of gets back to the question you asked about the death penalty.
If Bortland testifies against Melly, it is literally.
And I think that's the prosecution's ace in the hole: they're trying to do this case without Bortland because he's such a shitty witness.
But if the medical examiner doesn't pan out, I would bet 90% sure that they're going to put Bortland on the stand and he's going to testify against Melly.
That's what I think the state strategy is.
They're trying not to use him because it's already obvious that they've debunked his stupid ass story through their own independent investigation.
So it would look crazy for them to put him on the stand when he literally lied to them and shows that he's not credible, but now the state wants to tell you he's credible.
So he's a problematic witness.
But if the medical examiner doesn't head home run, as I, as I, the state is hoping that she will, and all the other witnesses don't line up, and it's not irrefutable that Melly was a murderer, they're going to put Bortland on the stand.
And if they do that, bruh, Sayonara, it's a wrap.
I've tried death penalty cases as a prosecutor, and the one axiom is that I don't want there to be any confusion about exactly who the shooter was, the circumstances of the shooting, so as not to make, you know, when you're asking the jury to give the ultimate penalty, even though the numbers have been reduced in the state of Florida, that if there's a question about who the shooter was, that is a massive problem that would lead me as a prosecutor to say, you know, I'm not comfortable in even filing this as a death penalty case.
Interesting.
Very interesting.
Let's go over to you, Amina.
I know you guys are saying, like, why would Bortland testify his rap career is going to be over, blah, blah, blah.
His rap career is going to be over if he doesn't testify, you fucking dummies.
You stupid.
They're saying that.
Because there's no way if they convict Melly, there's no way he's not going to prison.
It's a fucking rap if they convict Melly.
Do y'all not get that?
Like, Bortland is going to go to prison.
If they convict Melly, it's done for Bortland because Bortland has an even weaker case than Melly does.
He was with the bodies.
He's the one that gave the nonsensical story to the police that they got hit in a drive-by that is clearly disproven by the wound pattern.
Like, bruh, Bortland has no choice but to testify.
Y'all are saying his rap career is going to be done.
It's going to be done if he doesn't testify.
The only way I could see him getting out of this is if they convict Melly and he doesn't testify, he could try to, no, he's going to take, damn, he's kind of fucked either way.
Yeah.
Because if they don't need his testimony to convict Melly, then they're going to prosecute him and he's going to definitely go down for like murder two or accessory or some other bullshit like that.
If he testifies, that's what's probably going to save him and keep him out of prison for a significant amount of his life.
So he better pray that the state feels iffy and calls him to the stand because that's honestly going to be his best case scenario to not do a bunch of jail time.
Like that's the only chess move I see on the board for Bortland.
He's fucked either way in this, guys.
He's going to have to snitch or do a bunch of time in prison.
Again, Jamie Smith asks the question, and this is from YouTube.
So, sorry about that.
I'm scrolling here.
It seemed the defense inadvertently correlated Melly directly to the death.
The reason why so many people are saying Melly's not guilty or whatever is because a lot of people that are watching right now are his fans, guys.
You got to remember, this dude's been locked up for the better part of five years.
People have been waiting for this trial forever.
It got pushed back because of all the other high-profile trials going on, Parkland, and all this other bullshit.
So, of course, a bunch of his fans are going to be in there, you know, saying, oh, he's innocent, blah, blah, blah.
But, bro, when you look at the evidence, it's bad.
This isn't like, you know, Andrew Tate, where it's obvious he's innocent, where you got a girl saying they're human trafficking traffic, but they're walking in and out of the house.
Bro, they got cell location.
They got video surveillance footage.
They got all this shit, lying statements from other people.
They got all this shit that proves that Melly was at the scene.
Hell, even Melly himself admitted he was at the scene.
So, yeah, bro, this is not even close.
Text messages during cross.
Will that make a bigger impact on the jury?
I think it all makes an impact on the jury, right?
Right now, we're trying to figure out if Melly actually committed this murder.
I think the text messages show it's a strong evidence that he is a gang affiliated, but I don't know how the gang affiliation part plays into who committed this murder.
So it all.
This is why these fucking commentators are stupid sometimes.
I've said this before, I'll say it again.
It's not about proving the gang affiliation led to the murder.
It's about proving that he committed the murder and he has gang affiliation, dummy.
Like that's what it's about.
Like it's merely to prove that he is a member of a gang so that they can go ahead and get their death penalty that they're seeking, guys.
That's what it is.
Like, bro, are these people watching the same?
Yo, this is the, this is what happens when you have people that's like a serious XM host with no professional experience that can't properly interpret what the fuck is going on.
Kind of goes together.
I am interested to see in how the doctor and showing the pictures and then also talking about who fired the first shot.
I'm interested to see how that plays out because for me, the text message evidence was a little weak in that we don't know who was sending the text messages, but then we also don't know how, say, Melly was gang affiliated, how that's related to the murder.
As far as we know, this doesn't seem like a gang murder.
This seems like a murder between friends.
So who are all gang members?
Like, stupid.
I think it all goes into play and it's not singular.
It's not.
Look at this.
Y'all telling me this dude ain't a blood?
Come on, bro.
Come on.
These dudes are out all out here throwing bees.
Look, there's Cortland right there.
There's Melly.
I don't know who these guys are, but they're clearly gang members.
Like, bruh, come on, man.
And you can see here, it looks like he's at a show or something and he has these guys around him.
Like, one thing, you know?
Yeah, I mean, a lot of people are kind of asking this question about the people out here telling me Myron, you're a hater.
Like, nigga, no, I'm just like looking at what the hell.
You're telling me you ain't a gang member.
Like, what the hell did we just see?
What is this?
What is that?
Like, what?
Yo, man.
Yeah, I mean, a lot of people are kind of asking this question about the possible gang affiliation and the motive for the murders.
And, you know, I think that the prosecution, just looking at this, I've been going through a lot of those text messages.
We did an episode of sidebar on this today.
I think they're kind of trying to say, like, this may have been part of it.
See, I got my federal partners in here investigating.
Shout out to ATF.
His album cover showed him flashing blood signs.
And it says, we all shine because of the G Sean Blood.
Shout out to the ATF and the house.
The feds are in the house out here, baby.
Y'all know what time it is, man.
IRS in here, too.
No, they're just a neighborhood support group.
But this loyalty oath to the best chat on the internet, man.
Holy.
The gang.
So it's a pretty interesting thing that they're kind of bringing into all of this.
So let's take a quick break.
Keep the questions coming to us on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook.
Evidence that shows Melly getting into this car.
There's clear camera footage and camera evidence that shows the cell phones being there together and traveling down the highway, right?
But in this case, say something did happen, whether it was a shooting that happened within the car or a drive-by shooting.
Melly, as a celebrity, would want to distance himself from this.
And a lot of the times we see that.
I've seen it in other cases where celebrities are protected because this is what happens, right?
When celebrities become involved in something, it becomes big.
It becomes news.
If this wasn't a celebrity, would we be talking about this to the extent that we're talking about it?
So that is an excellent question.
You know, if you have no guilt, why not just call the police at that moment?
But I think what we have to factor in is the fact that Melly is a celebrity.
He is an up and coming, up and coming artist.
And I would not put it past for the people in Melly's lives or life to try to protect him and say, hey, we don't want to associate you with this.
Let's remove you from the car.
I'm not saying that's the right thing to do, but I've seen it happen many a times with, especially if you're in a group.
They're all in that YNW group.
They're all friends.
So I've seen it many times where the friends tried to protect the celebrity.
But I guess just the shock of it, Mina.
You know, these are your two lifelong friends, Juvie and Sack Chaser.
They came up together making all of this music and your friends have been like just slaughtered in front of you, you know.
And wouldn't you be like trying to do whatever you could to help them then?
Right.
And we don't know what that's one of the victims right there.
That's, if I'm not mistaken, Chris, YMW Chris, who was the one that was sitting directly to Melly's right in the back seat.
What happened in the car?
I mean, there is footage.
There is evidence that states that he was pacing.
I think they said something around the lines of like a thousand steps.
We don't know what that timeline was.
We don't know where this shooting happened.
And we don't know what the reaction to the shooting was, right?
At this point, all we have is all these different sets of, you know, this different set of evidence that they're trying to pinpoint everything, but we're not quite seeing the full picture here.
So I don't know where the that's because the trial isn't over yet.
Stupid.
Shooting happened.
I don't know how it happened.
You know, that's a mystery in itself.
So I don't know what is an appropriate response to that because I don't know the full details of what happened with this shooting.
Yeah.
Well, we know, we know the state's saying it happened inside the car, that the drive-by was staged after.
Obviously, Bortland said we were the victims of a drive-by, mentions nothing about the cap.
Nothing about, you know, these are all things the jury is going to have to determine.
They determine what the truth is here.
Tammy Trigg from YouTube, Terry Austin, is the jury sequestered.
No, the jury is not sequestered.
They're coming in and out every day.
I know for a fact this morning, one of them had trouble getting here on time.
But generally speaking, they have been here on time.
They leave in the evening around five o'clock every day.
They take a lunch break.
The judge is very attentive to their needs.
Usually it's around noon.
This is why we're doing the noon break here.
But yes, they have the freedom to come and go.
The judge does admonish them each and every time they enter and leave that courtroom, asking them whether or not anyone has listened to anything and telling them before they leave to make sure that they do not listen to social media.
Now, this is important, guys.
Obviously, in the social media agencies, it's tough.
This is a big reason why OJ Simpson actually won the trial.
For some of you guys that don't know, back in 95, the case had the most coverage I've ever seen.
It was like global when the OJ Simpson case happened.
But the jury members were not allowed to look at any of the media.
So a big reason why OJ got acquitted is because the jury didn't see half the things that were out on the media about the OJ Simpson case.
They only saw some things, which the defense counsel did a very good job of only letting in certain pieces of evidence in and attacking the evidence that did to corrupt to make the police look crazy, whatever it may be.
But in the social media age, it's very difficult to do this.
So the jury members are not supposed to watch or engage with any social media that covers this case.
Obviously, easier said than done, but they have to do that.
Evidence that they see inside the trial is evidence that they need to be considering.
So they're not sequestered.
We're trusting them the way we trust our system to work.
Maybe when they're deliberating, they will be, but not at this point.
Yeah.
And maybe during the actual penalty phase, if we get.
And you guys have asked about the OJ case.
I actually broke down the OJ case, guys.
The reason why it's hard to find is because it's fucking age restricted.
If y'all want, give me what's in the channel.
I'll drop the link in the chat.
But yeah, and I actually give you guys a pretty good theory on how Nicole Simpson died.
And here's the secret part.
It wasn't OJ by himself.
Definitely not.
There was definitely an accomplice, and I break down how that happened.
To that point, they possibly might be sequestered at that point, too.
Different states do things differently, depending on when you get to the penalty phase or not.
Here's one for you, Bob, from YouTube.
Dodge DAG DAG, I think that's Dodge, is asking, if it's required for the jurors to be impartial, which it is, why does it seem as if it's not required for the bro, when you guys click on it, it's going to say the following content has been identified by the YouTube community as inappropriate offenses.
Some audiences, your discretion is advised.
So I dropped the link in there for y'all if you want to watch it.
Save it in your thing.
It's really good.
It's actually one of my favorite ones that I did.
So check it out.
It's really good.
After we do this, obviously watch it after this.
Witnesses.
Well, listen, we don't live in a perfect world.
The witnesses are supposed to be impartial, i.e., the witnesses are supposed to tell the truth.
But I can tell you from many years of doing this that you can literally have witnesses that watch the same exact event and they come up with two completely.
I just pinned it for y'all.
If you guys want to go ahead and get it, it's pinned right now there, the OJ Simpson breakdown.
Different conclusions.
And I've come to the belief when I was younger.
I say, well, one of them Time Simpson there are in there and everything, guys.
So run that one up, man, because I'm pissed off that the YouTube throttled that so bad.
It's so bad that some of y'all still ask me to this day.
Oh, yo, did you do OJ Simpson?
I'm like, bro, I did OJ Simpson, but y'all can't find it because YouTube is lame.
And one of them's not.
I've come to the belief that people have the capacity to have tunnel logic and confirmation bias and they genuinely believe what it is they're saying.
But the witnesses are supposed to be impartial.
And that is why we have the greatest engine to get to the truth for people who are imposter that are not being truthful.
And that is the art of cross-examination.
So you can't mandate that a witness is going to be impartial.
And let's be honest, you know, when I'm a prosecutor and I've got police officers and detectives who investigated a case, they believe the person is guilty.
So I guess you could say they have partiality, but they say they're basing that upon a given set of facts.
That and lying are two different things.
I don't know if that answers the question, but that's the closest I can get to it.
Yeah, and there are different witnesses for different functions, right?
You know, expert witnesses versus lay witnesses, things of that nature.
So good question, though.
So keep those questions coming on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok.
We'll get to as many of them as we can.
But for now, we got to take a quick break.
I'm Angelette Levy, and you're watching Law and Crime.
We'll be right back.
All right.
And we're back to a break.
So let's go ahead and hit some of the chats if you guys got questions.
Okay, it's from Heavy Metal Hotep.
Shout out to you, my friend.
Alicia Ramirez goes, Can you do a breakdown of all of the cities that have fallen due to Democratic policies and leaders?
I mean, I could give you a quick little rundown on that right now.
New York City, San Francisco, Austin, if it doesn't fix itself, is going to be there.
Los Angeles, Portland, Oregon, Seattle.
These are some cities that are like really shitty thanks to fucking liberals, bro.
So definitely.
Boston's going to be there soon.
You know, unfortunately.
Psycho Man says, yo, my man's in the chat said he looked like Chris.
I'm dead.
Shout out to you.
Just a guy, 18 and on my way to becoming a man.
Thank you, Myron.
Got you.
And then just putting a few bucks in the collection plate, hit the like button.
While we wait for this thing to pop up, by the way, guys, here's the OJ documentary.
Okay, I'm going to go ahead and put another tab for y'all while we wait for this thing to come back.
Boom.
So, look at this shit.
Bro, that.
This dude's hating, man.
The following content has been identified by YouTube as inappropriate or offensive.
So lame.
Gotta move on.
You gotta.
So as you guys can see here, I go into right all the different chapters in here.
I got this shit detail, bro.
Like, real talk, man.
Like, if you guys like OJ Simpson, you guys like live through it.
I literally go through this thing like piece by piece.
This was a three and a half hour breakdown, man, on this case.
Because I was, I remember I was a kid when this case happened.
95.
You couldn't go anywhere without seeing this, man.
Like craziness, like viral upon viral when it was actually hard to get viral when you didn't have social media.
Like this shit was crazy.
Anyone that's in their 30s, if you're like 20, maybe if you're like 30 years old or older, you'll probably know about or remember living through this case to some degree, man.
I was a child when this shit happened, but it was wild, man.
I remember like every newspaper, it was televised worldwide.
It was crazy, man.
But yeah, yeah, man.
You know, the Bronco chase, blood evidence.
Three weeks after the scene had been washed down, which provided the best match by far to Simpson's DNA at the murder scene.
Holly, man.
OJ's first back from 2000.
I pulled up an interview from 2006 where he talked about this shit and he said, if I did it, where he goes into a hypothetical scenario where he's not by himself.
And then at the end, well, my prediction on what really happened, which y'all should definitely watch this here at the end, who actually did it.
But if you guys want, like, you should definitely go through everything where I go through the evidence on each situation, the chase, Ron Goldman, the Chad, origins of OJ's jealousy.
Like, yo, I'm looking back at this man, like, I put a lot of work into this shit, man.
God damn.
Yeah, I really love you guys.
God damn, man.
Look at it back.
I'm like, God, oh, shit.
Okay.
Yeah, go watch this, man.
To run this one up for me, guys, as a favor, because I really worked really hard on this one.
I only got 33k views.
I'm fucking pissed off because YouTube wanted to cock block me and make this shit age-restricted, fucking lame.
And I get, I'm telling y'all, this is the best breakdown of the OJ case on the internet.
Let me see here.
Look at this.
Look, bro.
This is by far the best OJ case breakdown on the whole internet.
Great word, Meierga.
I think it's undeniable at this point that both were at the scene.
Still not sure if it was a murder or a situation that got a control, but both should have been arrested and die in jail.
If y'all want to know who the other person was that I talked about, go ahead and watch that thing, man.
But yeah, bro, this shit was crazy.
I go into conspiracy theories on this that came out during this case.
We turn every stone in this investigation, man.
So shout out to y'all, man.
Shout out to y'all.
Oh, you guys are saying, should I rumble it?
I don't think I was.
I don't know if I was with Rumble at the time I dropped this video, but I'm going to work on Simon Rumble for Fed Reacts 2, bro, because there's some situations where there's shit that I want to be showing y'all sometimes that's way too violent for YouTube.
They'll demonetize me immediately.
And they already demonetized a lot of my videos on this channel.
They'd be hating, man.
Does this, but I don't know how Melly being gang-related tells us who committed this murder.
And I think separating this trial from, you know, Cortland and Melly, I think the separation of this trial allows them to point fingers at each other.
It certainly does.
Our next question comes from Martin on YouTube.
This is for you, Terry.
How do you feel about the cross-examination skills of Melly's lawyer so far?
That's David Howard.
And do you think he'll do a good job against the medical examiner?
Well, we'll see who crosses the medical examiner.
Sometimes they switch it up.
But so far, I definitely think David Howard has been doing an excellent job.
He's developed a rapport, certainly with Danny Polo, who is the undercover agent.
And they go back and forth and clearly they know undercover sheriff's deputy.
God damn it.
Shit.
What each is doing.
I think the undercover agent is definitely, he's off the stand now, but he was definitely trying to make some points.
He knew when to follow up, even though the question wasn't being asked.
But Howard, on the other hand, made sure he said, okay, so that's speculation then, right?
Okay, so that could have been from a Martian.
So he's making it very clear when they are talking about issues like what's in the text, what's not in the text.
You can't speculate.
Oh, okay, there was a phone call.
So I think he's doing an excellent job telling that jury what is on black and white in those emails and texts and what's not.
And not to speculate.
If you don't see that Melly is saying, oh, I want to be part of this gang, then perhaps that's the case.
He hasn't asked for that.
And by the way, what the prosecution was trying to say Melly would get is some clout.
Obviously, that's one thing that each side will get, but also opening venues for Melly, which to me, as, you know, thinking about it from the defense perspective, Melly brings most of that clout.
So the defense, I think, really established the fact that it was more one-sided than the other.
One thing that I thought was interesting, Terry, you mentioned that David Howard and Danny Polo seem to know what the other was doing, where the other was going.
They also know each other.
That kind of came out yesterday in testimony that David Howard has, you know, been in contact with Danny Polo to testify apparently on another case.
So the judge wanted that kind of stricken from the record when the defense objected, that happened.
But it came up that they know each other.
So I thought that was an interesting little tidbit that he's actually called on him to possibly consult on and testify in one of his cases.
I think it was Stuart Adelson, but I think the whole team probably knows.
You're right, it was Stuart Adelson.
Yeah, but Howard, I think, was crossing him, but I think Stuart Adelson's the one that did the, you're right about that objective.
Okay, so let's go.
Let's go on our next question.
Charles Sweet from YouTube.
With him jumping from one blood set to another, doesn't that give motive for the gang to come after for Melly and could have done the drive-by shooting?
So I guess, Bob, the question is, you know, he was jumping.
Melly may have been jumping from one blood set to another.
Yo, what the fuck?
Dom de Mongo, Delongo.
Yo, he's that pale chick look like Zorded.
You guys are literally pieces of shit, bro.
Let me.
Yo, what the fuck, man?
Yo.
Yo.
Y'all are fucking, yo, that's it, man.
I'll fucking deal with y'all, man.
Does that give him motive for the gang to come after Melly and could have done the drive-by shooting?
Like, I guess somebody else in the gang is what they're saying.
I don't know.
I mean, this is the problem.
There are so many questions of what it could be.
And that is, as a prosecutor, as a homicide prosecutor, the last place I want to be is maybe it's this the motive.
Maybe that's the one.
I can't refute the defense motive.
Look, when we talk about the expert witness, I've never seen it.
He was good.
He was a good witness.
He's a skilled guy, but it was always done in generalities.
The testimony that that detective gave, and at least in my state, wouldn't even qualify to make somebody a gang validated member.
There's a criteria that you have to use in order to do that.
There are lots of people that hang around gangs.
There's lots of Frank Sinatra hung around the mob doesn't mean that he was committing murders for them.
Lots of people want to mob people want to, or gang people want to be involved with fancy people and famous people.
And sometimes they portray themselves.
I grew up in an area where people portrayed themselves to be something and they weren't anything like that.
So if the prosecution cannot pin down a specific motive, they're going to lose the jury.
Maybe they'll get the conviction on the murder, maybe, maybe, but they're going to lose the jury on the aggravating factors for the death penalty.
So I just think this testimony has been way too general to not have at least any sliver of reasonable doubt.
And Angie, I had to go back to the same story.
If there's any sliver of reasonable doubt in the guilt phase, any sliver, even though they may find him guilty, they're not going to impose the death penalty on a case like.
No, if Melly's walks, I'm not going to be pissed at all because we'll be able to fucking not have a rapper get killed by the state of Florida.
But I foresee that it's going to be damn near impossible for him to walk, bro.
I don't wish death upon no man, but I'm telling y'all, I'm getting y'all prepared.
He's like, I say 95% chance he gets convicted.
Yeah, you could be very well, you could be right on that, Bob.
Most certainly.
Sam Sella from YouTube, Mina, asks, do you.
The difference between me and the fans and Melly's situation situation is I have experience in this shit and I'm realistic.
There's a very slim chance he's going to beat these charges, man.
You think a culture of silence will hurt the prosecution?
I do think so.
I do think that will hurt the prosecution because the culture of silence is the reason why you might not have certain witnesses come forward.
I mean, we've seen it with Danny Polo.
He wanted to cover himself.
You're talking about gangs in open court, you know, that obviously don't want to be mentioned, don't want to be in the limelight.
And that might open you up to some violence.
I mean, Danny made it very clear that he was worried about his family in this testimony, and that's why he wanted to be covered.
I do want to kind of hop on what Bob said in terms of affiliations with gang members.
I know that a lot of celebrities a lot of times do converse with gang members because you have to think about the music that they're making and the areas that they're going to, right?
Some of these areas are not safe.
And some of these areas are actually guarded by certain groups, right?
So you have to have the protection of those groups when you go to that area.
So a lot of the times you will see celebrities have a relationship with gang members because they're wearing a lot of jewelry.
They're doing club appearances.
They're doing shows.
And they're walking around with a lot of money.
They're celebrities.
They're known.
That might be a target for other gangs.
So a lot of the times.
Here he is again, throwing up another gang sign with the bees.
Celebrities do have these relationships, and it's almost necessary to operate in these different areas and to keep yourself safe.
That might necessarily mean that you're part.
That's how LA is.
You have to have some type of affiliation, especially if you're black.
You got to have like some type of people vouching for you so you don't get taken to the cleaner every day.
Part of that gang, but you need the protection of that gang to operate.
Well, Florida is not that way.
Right in some of these areas.
Now, obviously, I don't, I'm not saying that this is the case with Melly, but what I am saying is it's not an anomaly for certain celebrities to know certain gang members so that they can be safe when they're traveling in these different areas.
That's some good perspective there from you.
She is correct about that, but that's LA, man.
There's not many cities that operate like that.
Like where he's from, Gifford, Georgia, which is in the middle of nowhere.
Nah, that's not a thing.
Thanks for adding that.
Bloop.Sammy from TikTok asks, Terry, if Melly didn't have any gun residue on him, then why is he getting the charge?
Well, that's an excellent question.
He did not have any gun residue on him, and that's why they cannot put that gun in his hand.
He's being charged because they believe he's the one, but he hasn't really been connected to, you know, being in that car, taking those shots, the gun residue, the DNA, none of that is so far on Melly.
The only thing that the prosecution, in my opinion, has firmly established is that, and actually, this is not even that firmly established, is that Melly's DNA is in the back seat where behind the driver on that door handle.
And even that, I think, is questionable because at first, Melly's DNA didn't come back on anything.
And they did a second look on that door handle and they saw his DNA there.
And that was just very recent in June of this year, frankly.
So no gun residue.
All right.
So fine, I'll give it to her there.
I mean, there's a bunch of reasons why it might not have been found on the first time.
Sloppiness, not getting it done properly.
You know, they didn't go to trial for five years.
So it is what it is.
But they got it.
They wiped it down again and they found his DNA four years later.
And Melly's been in prison all this time.
You're trying to tell me they got his DNA somehow and put it on the door handle.
Okay, that's a bit far-fetched.
Let's go ahead and go with that.
Okay, they didn't find it at first.
Go around.
It was a plant in a conspiracy.
Oh, my God.
Let's say that, right?
Let's go with that.
Okay.
But at the end of the day, she's saying, oh, nothing places him in the car, et cetera.
Are you blind?
Have you not been watching a trial?
There's CCTV footage of him literally getting in the backseat passenger seat.
There's a phone location data proving that he was in the vehicle at the location where the shots happened, where the fake drive-by staging occurred.
They proved that also to corroborate that the phone was there.
Why?
Because the detectives, right, once they did that phone search warrant, right, and they saw that Melly was really in that location, they went back.
And when they went back, guess what they found, guys?
They saw broken glass on the floor.
They haven't talked about this in the trial yet, if I'm not mistaken.
They found broken glass on the floor.
Guess where that broken glass came from?
This fucking vehicle.
Okay.
That all these things.
The vehicle which Melly was in, based on the phone location data, was tracked back to a desolate location that YMW Bortland did not tell the detectives about originally.
The detectives did the search warrant, found the phone in that location, went to said location, found shards of glass, was able to connect those shards of glass to this vehicle.
What the fuck are y'all talking about?
Like, yo, these law crime people are very stupid.
They don't really know this case like that.
That's why I'll be listening to them sometimes.
And I'm like, bro, y'all are wrong.
Like, what are y'all talking about?
You know, like, what?
What?
What do you mean they don't have evidence that links Melly to the fucking situation?
The phone is what led the police there in the first place.
They wouldn't have found, right?
They wouldn't have found this vehicle.
Remember, the original story was they got shot at a drive-by shooting on the highway, right?
Borland told some cockamania bullshit story.
They weren't able to piece everything back together until they got like the phone data and tracked it back and they found the broken shards of glass where they staged this drive-by, which irrefutably proves that not only the vehicle was there, but Melly's phone was there on the location, which is then also corroborated by the CCTV footage, which shows that he got into that vehicle in the back left seat.
And the medical examiner has already said that the shots came from inside the vehicle, from right to fucking left, not right to left, like the fucking drive-by shooting is indicating.
It was left to right, excuse me, right?
Not right to left.
So all of this evidence put together builds a very strong circumstantial case that leads you to only one fucking conclusion.
Who sat in the back left seat?
We know it was Melly.
Where did the shots come from?
The back left seat based on the wounds.
Where did the shooting happen?
In a desolate area right outside of Miramar, contrary to YW Bortland's original statement to the police that said they got shot on the highway.
And then the phone location data corroborates all of that, man.
Am I the only person that knows this case?
Like, what are these dudes at lawn crime doing?
What do you mean there's nothing linking Melly to the case?
DNA, not much to speak of.
You know, they really have not connected those dots, I think, enough for that jury.
So it's, you know, a good question.
Be patient.
Yo, this is going to be a month-long trial.
We're only on day nine.
Like, be patient, bruh.
Like, this is how I could tell that none of them read up on this case prior to this trial because all of them are, they don't know what the evidence is going to come.
I know the evidence that's going to come because I've already studied this case.
I already know it's damn near, you know, it's proven at this point.
But it's very obvious to me that these guys didn't study this case prior to the trial.
And they're just watching the trial.
And this is the first time they've seen a lot of this evidence, so it doesn't make sense to them.
But, bruh, like, come on, man.
And if you guys got questions about this, go watch my original Wine W Melly breakdown, where I have time stamps and I go through the police's affidavit, which outlines everything and how they built their case.
Very well-written affidavit that documents all the evidence and basically leads you to believe there's no other way this could have happened had it not been for Melly shooting them.
All of Melly's friends lied to include Fred O'Bang as well.
And if I'm going to speculate, okay, going here into a little bit of a conspiracy, I have reason to believe, because remember, they never found the gun.
You know where that gun is?
Melly and more.
And I think Fredo Bang got rid of that gun together.
All right.
Because we know that Melly was looking for a gun right after this shit happened.
Hey, man.
I think that's something the FBI would call a clue.
And Fredo Bang lied to the police all over the place about where he was, where Melly was, et cetera.
And they found through phone location data that he was lying and didn't go where he said he was.
You know, shout out to Fredel Bang for keeping it a thousand for covering for his friend, but that doesn't help the case.
And why they decided to bring the charges against him.
And not only that, the death penalty.
He was better off not talking to them at all than giving a bullshit story.
All these guys that gave a statement to the police, they were better off not talking at all.
They actually hurt Melly with their nonsensical lies.
Well, let's keep in mind, too.
You know, we saw we had the surveillance video of Melly in the vehicle, so we definitely know he was there.
The question is: was he there when the shooting happened?
And that's the question the jury is going to have to answer.
Let's take a quick break.
Keep the question.
Bro, what the monk go on.
Y'all are watching the same pod as I am, right?
The lady literally said, There's not anything connecting Melly.
Yo, this is YW Melly right here, bro.
This is him.
Look at where he goes.
Coming on YouTube, Twitter.
Oh, they didn't show it, but he gets in the back seat.
TikTok.
He gets in the back seat.
This is the vehicle that all the shots came in.
All the bullet holes were on this side, but the shots came from left to right.
Melly's going to get in the back of this.
Here he is right here.
Clear as day, getting in the vehicle.
Quick break.
Look at that satchel.
A gun can definitely fit in that, right?
Coming on YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook.
We'll get to as many of them as we can when we come back.
I'm Ann Jeanette Levy, and you're watching Law & Crime.
Someone said he could have got dropped off.
Good question.
Good, good comment, but the phone was with Melly, bro.
You're telling me he got out the car in the middle of nowhere and didn't have his phone or wasn't with his phone.
We know that's a lie because Melly made a FaceTime call later that night in the same wooded desolate area to his girlfriend.
So we know for a fact he was in possession of the phone.
Like, if the phone was not used after the murder, then he could say, oh, bro, I got dropped off on the side of the road.
I didn't know.
Like, I just went home.
I left my phone in the car.
That's how y'all were able to track it there.
But tell me how he had the phone an hour later and made a FaceTime call.
Exactly.
Like, goddamn, bro.
Like, these Melly fans are delusional.
Court will he like I know this case very well, bro.
That's why, like, I'm out here with the facts.
I'm not out here, like, these guys hearing about this case for the first time, catching up on the trial.
I'm not convinced.
It's because you don't know all the evidence that's about to come.
Y'all are dumb.
I like these people.
It's very obvious.
They didn't read the probable cause affidavit.
They didn't follow this case prior to the trial.
They don't really know all the circumstances that led to the arrest in the first place.
Like, bro, if you actually looked at this case and read that probable cause affidavit, I'm gonna link it for y'all.
Fuck this shit.
I'm gonna link that probable cause for y'all affidavit.
And I'm gonna link my video so you guys can actually go through and watch this shit.
Because you guys don't think I'm a crazy man here.
Because it's wild to me how so many people try to debate me on this and argue me on this.
That Melly's innocent.
And I'm like, you're an idiot.
You literally are an idiot.
He cover his friend.
Will he explain a different story, which is probably likely in that scenario?
So, yes, let's wait to see.
I've done a lot of murder here.
Look, look, man.
I'm going to show y'all this joint real quick.
So you go to my channel, right?
You go here, hip-hop, hip-hop cases, right?
Hip-hop and Rico cases.
Bang.
We're going to go where I got this by.
Look at all the cases I've covered here, man.
With this.
All right.
Look, it was my first video I covered on this.
Right?
This is the link right here, guys, right?
Where I cover this shit in detail.
I'll drop it in the chat for you guys right now.
The original.
And then here's the affidavit, bro, that they used to arrest him with all the facts that I broke down.
Okay?
If y'all want, you know what, man?
I still haven't slept, and it's fucking about to be 1 p.m. in the afternoon.
God damn it, man.
I guess we're on overtime now.
All right, let me see.
Do we still got this lunch break shit going on?
Yeah, we do.
All right.
I'm going to let y'all pick.
Do y'all want me to read this affidavit for y'all and go through it with y'all line by line?
Or do you guys want to keep listening to this?
Give me a one in the chat if you guys want me to do the affidavit or you know, or two if y'all want to just keep watching the law and crime thing.
It's up to you guys.
I'm going to leave it to y'all.
Let's see here.
Because it looks like the trial still hasn't begun.
And I'll stop once we start the trial.
But up to y'all.
Oh, yeah.
I'm only going to go for the affidavit until the trial's back.
I'm not going to talk about read the affidavit.
So, here, you know what?
Let me do a poll.
That's more accurate here.
Let me do what the hell let me do a poll.
Well, this is blame.
Hold on.
There we go.
All right.
So I'll go ahead and do a poll for y'all.
Start a poll.
There we go.
All right.
So affidavit till trial or commentary.
See what y'all vote.
Put it in your guys's hands.
And let me move this tab out the way.
My bad, guys.
Fucking, why is this shit not moving?
You know what?
Fuck this, I'll close it.
sorry about that guys this here's the affidavit Let me look at the poll.
Oh, shit.
Okay.
Looks like the affidavit is winning 68%.
All right, I'll watch it.
I'll read the affidavit until the trial's back.
Okay, let's go through this thing.
Looks like this is what you guys want.
So, what I will do is get my ugly mug off this joint and enlarge it for you.
Okay?
All right.
The facts are as follows.
Okay.
On 1026-18 at 4:35 a.m., Cortland Henry entered the emergency room at Memorial Miramar, requesting assistance for two passengers in his vehicle as they were shot multiple times.
Officer Amengor Miramar Petty, who was working the security detail, exited the hospital and made contact with the aforementioned vehicle that was stopped in the loading zone on the north side of Memorial Miramar Hospital ER entrance.
Emma Gore, the police officer, requested medical staff in the removing of the two passengers.
Both passengers were unresponsive, exhibited multiple gunshot wounds.
The aforementioned vehicle transporting both victims also sustained.
Why the hell is it acting like that?
Hold on, sorry, guys.
I'm realizing that it's like spasm out on y'all.
The fucking thing.
Let me.
You know what?
I think I know what I'm going to do.
Bear with me real quick, guys.
I'm going to go ahead and download this shit.
All right, I'm going to stop sharing screen real quick.
Let me do this real fast for y'all on the side.
Put this over here.
All right, so I'll share this while we wait.
I'll play this for y'all while I do this shit on the side.
I was like, what the fuck is going on?
How it happened and what was used?
What gun was used in this shooting?
Yeah, we know they recovered a .40 caliber round.
So we do know that.
And there was an area that they discussed and showed pictures of where there was some, you know, broken glass on the ground and things like that, where they are claiming that this happened.
So I'm sure the prosecution will tie this all together in their closing, but that's something we're still waiting to see how they bring this all together in closing.
Our next question, two YouTube questions.
One is from Tynaja Jania asking, why is this case being sentenced to death if they barely have evidence of it?
Hold on.
We're good now.
They're staying at the beginning pretty soon.
Okay, so he's back.
They're going to come back here soon.
So let's go through this quickly while we can.
All right.
Probable cause.
Okay.
The aforementioned vehicle transported both victims also sustained a minimum of eight projectile entry points on the right side exterior and one visible projectile entry point on the to the rear lift gate.
The front right passenger, Anthony Williams, sustained gunshot wounds to his torso and head while the right rear passenger, Christopher Thomas Jr., this so this is sack chaser right here, guys, right?
Get this goddamn red since we're doing bloods anyway.
Sack chaser right here, guys.
And then Chris, right?
Sustained several gunshot wounds to his back and head.
Both passengers on the right side of the vehicle were pronounced deceased by medical staff at Memorial Miramar.
Okay.
Henry was questioned by this affian, okay, by the detective.
According to him, he departed.
This is the story that Cortland Henry gave.
Okay.
According to him, he departed a recording studio in Fort Lauderdale with two victims in his vehicle.
Henry said he drove on I-595 to I-75 and exited at Miramar Parkway heading west.
Henry stated that just past Southwest 160th Ave, a vehicle pulled next to him and started shooting.
Henry immediately lowered his body position to the floorboards in a protective posture to avoid being shot.
Henry added that when he sat upright, his friends Williams and Thomas were shot and he immediately proceeded to the nearest hospital.
Detective Toya later drove with Henry to have him identify the specific location of where the shooting occurred.
Henry pointed out the 1600 block of Miramar Parkway.
It should be noted the area was shut down between 160th and 172nd Avenue on Miramar Parkway and was closely examined for any evidence to corroborate the statements made by Henry.
After a long and exhausting examination, no evidence was found.
Hmm.
I wonder why.
Let's put a pin in that.
The detectives and officers walked the 12 blocks out on foot.
It should be noted, not a single report of gunshots was reported to Broward County Communications Center nor Miami-Dade as well.
It should be noted that the area between 172nd Ave and 184th Ave was closely down on was closed down on 1029, 2018, and cannabis on foot by detectives and officers.
No corroborating evidence was found.
Translation: The police, okay, went and looked at the area that Henry claimed that they were shot, okay?
But the police didn't find shit.
Then Henry's hands were processed by Miramar Police Department crime scene by submission for laboratory testing with Tri-Tech gunshot residue evaluation collection kit and with the presumptive gunshot residue test.
The presumptive gunshot residue test was negative.
Lab results are pending the try at gunshot residue evidence location.
So he was negative for gunshot residue.
Why?
Because he didn't shoot.
On 1026, this affiant, along with Detective Latoya.
Also, I want you guys to notice he didn't mention that Melly got in the vehicle.
Okay.
He said he departed the recording studio for Lauderdale with the two victims in his vehicle.
Doesn't mention Melly.
Hmm.
On 1028, the affidavit, your affian with Detective Atoya, made contact with Dontavius Wither, who initially identified himself as Dantavius Williams at his address.
This is the last known residence of the victims.
According to Withers, they, Withers, Henry, Demons, Demons, by the way, is Melly, Thomas, Williams, and a few others were at a recording studio in Fort Lauderdale and all left together in two separate vehicles.
Withers stated he arrived a little ahead of the victims at the aforementioned residence.
Withers stated it wasn't until later that he found out his friends were shot.
Withers said that demons was in his vehicle, a red Mitsubishi.
Hold on one second.
Stop the show.
Stop the cap.
Really?
Let's see here.
He went in your red Mitsubishi.
I'm about to show y'all how stupid people really are here.
All right, ninjas.
Here's Sack Chaser, right?
Withers is probably one of these dudes here.
I don't know who in particular, but you can see their.
Oh, no, it's one of these two.
This right here is YW Chris.
You're going to see him.
Oh, no, excuse me.
I'm sorry.
That's Portland right there.
He's the driver.
So Sack Chaser gets in the front.
Portland gets in the front seat, right?
Here are these two dudes.
So right now, I guess Portland hasn't lied, has he?
But let's see what happens next.
Then here comes another individual.
I don't know who this guy is, but I think he's also going to get in the red Mitsubishi.
Right?
Then, look who appears.
Oh, looks like Melly.
Not only is it Melly, he's wearing a satchel.
If you guys notice, it looks like it's way down a little bit, doesn't it?
Has that stiff type feeling to it?
Where does he get in?
Hmm.
He gets in the back left seat.
Portland didn't say that, did he, though?
Let that detail out.
You can clearly see he gets in.
Door opens, closes, right?
Now, who's this?
This is Chris, the other victim.
What does he do?
He gets in the seat right next to Melly.
Okay?
He gets in the seat right next to Melly.
Now, I think all of y'all in the chat got two eyes like I do, correct?
Did Melly get in the red Mitsubishi?
Hmm.
Nope.
Oh, and look, they're taking off.
Melly's still in the vehicle.
And now the Mitsubishi takes off.
But what did this nigga say?
Withers said that Demons was in his vehicle at Red Mitsubishi.
Yo, I'm the Monaco, Monaco, Biggest Cap.
Stop the cap.
And the Great Jeep was occupied by Henry, Williams, and Thomas.
Lie.
Like, bruh, in fucking 4K.
Do y'all see now?
I just started this affidavit, by the way, and we're already finding inconsistencies.
I haven't even warmed up yet, guys.
You know, I'm telling y'all, the way I talk about this case so confidently is because I know what the fuck I'm talking about.
Melly isn't connected.
How have you guys proven it?
Like, nigga, look at what his friends are saying.
Melly wasn't the Red Mitsubishi was me.
Like, no, stupid.
Stop the cap.
Withers was asked if he knew the location of demons, and he stated he did not.
However, it was later discovered that Withers lied to this Afghanistan.
Withers had just come from the residence of Frederick Gibbons, aka Fredo Bank, and had been in the presence of demons.
So we back yet?
Let's see here.
Let me make sure.
Oh, it looks like we're back on a trial.
All right, guys.
Yeah, y'all get the idea.
But, bro, this affidavit is crazy.
Go ahead and read it.
Watch this video that I'll put in the chat for y'all on the Melly case.
But let's get back to the fire.
I believe.
Show it in to depict an injury externally.
It's not an internal.
I don't know that they're so gruesome as to all right.
Fuck this shit.
Okay, let's keep going.
It's a recap.
The location of the recording studio was identified as 805 Northeast, blah, blah, blah.
Detective Soy and Burtrend made contact with management.
The manager of the studio, Albert Price, confirmed, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But here's the important thing.
We already went over the surveillance footage I just showed y'all, this, right?
The surveillance footage, that's what the police saw.
Okay, so that's what this paragraph covers.
They say it should be noted that demons had a light brown satchel hanging down on the left side of his body.
The satchel appeared to be weighed down, but the contents were unknown.
When Christopher Thomas Jr. departed the studio, he was carrying a black satchel in his left hand.
That satchel also appeared to be weighed down as well.
The gray Jeep with the above list individuals departed the area.
The red Mitsubishi being driven by Withers.
Okay, so Withers was the driver of the Red Mitsubishi.
And Adrian Davis, two others followed behind.
So Melly never got in.
They lied.
Okay.
As stated earlier, Withers proceeded directly to his residence in Miramar.
This was confirmed by the security cameras at the gatehouse of the Sunset Lakes located 3,500 block.
So he went home, right?
He went home.
And they know this because of the surveillance cameras at his apartment.
So they know that Withers went home.
On 1026-18, a search warrant was issued in the case for the vehicle driven by Henry occupied with Thomas Williams and Demons.
The vehicles will maintain a secure storage at the Miramar PD.
The vehicle is owned by Enterprise Rental Car and rented by the manager of Demons, Jameson Frank Coy.
Who's Jameson Frank Coy, guys?
I'm almost certain this is track 100, his manager.
Okay.
The evidence was processed by CSI.
The vehicle had eight visible projectile holes on the right side of the vehicle.
There was also a projectile hole on the rear left gate.
So they just talk about the thing.
Here's an important piece of evidence.
All evidence was collected and placed into evidence.
It should be noted that one single 40-caliber shell casing blazer, as Smith and Wesson, was found inside the vehicle on the floorboard of the left rear passenger side.
Please explain to me, guys, how you have a shell casing where Melly was sitting when you guys were allegedly hit in a drive-by shooting makes zero physiological sense.
How would that happen?
Okay.
So they're poking holes all over Bortland's story.
All right.
It was found inside a white plastic bag on the floorboard.
This was the seat that was utilized by demons as observed on video.
The single shell casing also contradicts statements made by Henry, stating this incident was a drive-by shooting.
Okay.
This sports evidence that the victims were shot inside the car first and the projectile holes on the exterior was later staged in an effort to misdirect law enforcement investigation.
The next day, this affian made contact with Withers and Vero Beach after confronting Withers with the video evidence.
Withers then changed his story.
Hmm.
Stop the cap.
He said Withers added demons was in the gray Jeep initially, but along the way, he got out of the Jeep and entered his red Mitsubishi.
Really?
Did he do that?
You are fake news.
Withers stated this occurred on I-75 near the Sheridan Street exit.
Withers stated he was contacted by demons via Snapchat to pull over on I-75 and meet up.
Okay.
So what do the police do?
They get a search warrant on cell phone sites used by demons, Withers, Williams, and Thomas W. Police, bro.
What the?
Don't de Monco, Monco.
They know that these niggas are capping.
So what do they do?
I don't believe y'all.
So I'm going to go ahead and do search warrants on all of your fucking phones and see where you assholes really were.
It was determined that Withers did proceed to the residence and arrived at said location around 3.49 a.m.
This was also confirmed by video at the gate to Sunset Lakes.
These records also showed a continuous route from the studio to the residents without a stop or delay in between.
Why is that important?
Because he said that he stopped, right, to pick him up on I-75.
But the phone location data shows that this niggas drove straight fucking home.
Okay, this is irrefutable to his gated community where it has a bunch of cameras catching his ass showing up there.
Okay?
He ain't stopped nowhere to pick Melly up.
Nowhere.
The cell site for the cell phones of Demons, Thomas, and Williams revealed they traveled west on Miramar Parkway, but turned north on Southwest 84th Ave towards Pine Boulevard and then turned west on Pines Boulevard.
Video evidence shows that Gray Jeep Compass traveling west of the 1900 19200 block at 353 and returned east at 406.
Cell site data from Demons' phone correspond with the actual crime scene location, which is within the jurisdictional limits of Miramar Broward County, Florida.
Williams' cell phone also registered at the same location as Demons.
And Williams is one of the victims.
The cell phone for Thomas registered on a cell tower near the crime scene, but separate and apart from the false reported drive-by location.
This evidence contradicts statements made by Henry at the hospital.
It shows a different path traveled.
Come on.
These records also don't show demons meeting up with Withers and proceeding home with him.
Bro, how many times do I got to keep Duncan, man?
Like, do I need to keep going, chat?
Do I need to keep going here?
The cell phone location data is irrefutable.
Okay.
They went the extra step and pulled the surveillance footage just to show that his ass went straight home and never stopped on no fucking I-75 to pick Melly up.
What does this mean?
This means that Melly was in the Jeep the entire time as shown on his vehicle, contrary to his friend's statements, man.
It's incredible to me how people just don't want to accept reality.
Y'all want me to keep going?
Like, should I keep going here?
It gets worse.
I could keep going or we can go back to Law and Order.
I'm going to give it to y'all.
Give me a one if you guys want me to just go back to law and order or two if you guys want me to keep reading this.
If y'all want me to keep reading this affidavit and show you guys the inconsistencies.
But it's up to y'all.
One, if you guys want me to go to the law network, the chat, the trial hasn't started yet.
Or two, if you guys want me to keep reading this affidavit.
All right.
Before I keep reading this affidavit, you guys want the affidavit.
Before I do, let me see if the trial is back.
All right, they got this random guy yapping.
Okay, it ain't back yet.
All right.
I guess we're going to keep going.
T-Mobile cell phone records also show that demons was traveling from Fort Lauderdale in a western direction starting at 320 until the time of the shooting at 1026, 2018.
This was consistent with video evidence obtained in this case.
The records show demons traveling back in an eastern direction with the location of the crime scene being in the path of travel.
It should be noted that the original crime scene identified by Henry was a false location.
Why was it a false location, guys?
Well, we know that the detectives scoured that area for evidence and even closed that area down, but they didn't find shit.
No bullet casings, no glass, no blood, no residue, nothing.
Why did they find nothing?
Because Bortland lied about where the shooting actually occurred.
But now that the police are armed with the cell phone location data, let's see what they find out.
This investigation revealed that Henry intentionally lied to this investigator and others to deceive and mislead the investigation in an attempt to hide the incriminating truth pertaining to the homicides of Thomas Williams.
The same cell records, now we're still talking about Melly here, show the cell phones of Demons and Williams moving around the area of I-75 and Pembroke Pines at 425 prior to entering the hospital at 435.
The records of demons also indicate a departure from the vehicle at 4.32 a.m.
Video evidence shows Henry arriving at the hospital with Thomas and Williams, but without demons.
According to the CDR of Demons' cell phone, he separated from the cell phone belonging to Williams around 4.32.
This was according to the records provided by T-Mobile via a search warrant issued in reference to this case.
Evidence shows that Henry and Demons drove around for a period of time with the two dead victims in their vehicle prior to entering the hospital.
This was in a calculated effort to establish their version of the incident in the attempt to deceive law enforcement.
Video evidence obtained from the hospital shows Henry had changed his clothes.
When Henry departed the studio, he was wearing a black t-shirt.
Remember this, guys?
Remember what he's wearing?
Right here, he is in fucking 4K.
Nigga wearing a t-shirt.
Okay.
But evidence shows Henry and demons.
But when he went to the hospital, he was wearing a black hoodie.
You know what?
Let's go all the way with this shit.
Y'all niggas don't believe me.
Look at this shit, bro.
Wyron W. Bortland Hospital.
Oh, look.
Wait.
Hold up.
Look, they got the car on footage driving around.
There he is right there.
Wearing a fucking hoodie.
Bro, do I got to keep showing y'all this in 4K?
Do I got...
Down the monco, the monco...
Here he is.
1080p for y'all.
Change of clothes.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
Okay?
The black hoodie was later examined and no forensic evidence was noted.
However, the black t-shirt worn under the hoodie by the Henry had a bloodstain pattern on it, both front and back.
Okay?
On 1121, 2018, Officer D. Goins of the Fort Lauderdale Canine Unit with Kanine Gunner was requested to assist in searching the area identified as suspect crime scene from the phone records within the jurisdiction of Miramar Broward County, Florida.
So, guys, the phone location data shows that they were in a random area in Miramar that Bortland purposely did not tell the police about.
Okay?
So let's see what happens when they go to this area.
The canine showed a reaction to an area on the side of the road approximately 870 feet from this nearest north-south running cross street.
A closer examination revealed a total of eight 40-caliber blazers, Smith Wesson shell casings on the ground next to the roadway in the shoulder.
Guys, what the f**k?
Here's the vehicle, right?
One, two, three.
Hold on.
Trying to find this shit for y'all.
Get the fuck out of here.
Hold on.
Okay, let me refresh this shit.
Okay, y'all can see it was a snapshot, but you can see eight shots on the side of the vehicle.
And what did the police find at the crime scene?
Eight spent shell casings.
Okay.
And this .40 caliber Smith Wesson matches what?
The Smith Wesson that was found in the back left passenger seat in the back.
Same bullets.
Okay.
So the bullets that were found at the scene was also the same bullets found in the car, man.
Two different shots.
Now, watch this.
Two different types of shards of glass were found in close proximity to the shell casings.
The first type of glass was a clear glass consistent with the front right passenger window of the vehicle.
And the second type was a tinted glass consistent with the right rear passenger side window of the aforementioned vehicle.
The crime scene was processed by CSI Curry.
The casings were sent to BSO.
A closer examination of newly discovered crime scene revealed the vehicle was stopped at this location and weapons were discharged into the vehicle.
The vehicle made a U-turn and fled the area.
The other side of the road had shards of glass consistent with the passenger with the passenger windows of the vehicle.
This was also contradiction to the statement made by Henry on the morning of the shooting at the hospital to this affian.
This was clearly not a drive-by shooting and no other vehicle pulled next to them and started shooting as stated by Henry.
This clearly shows a pattern of deceitfulness by Henry in an effort to mislead this investigation.
I mean, yo, do I got to keep cooking here, man?
Do I got it?
Bro, do you guys see now why I'm so convinced?
And I tell y'all that these law and order niggas are retarded.
Like, bro, they went back to the scene that the cell phone showed that they were at and found eight spent shell casings.
I forgot about this, by the way, that matched one of the shell casings in the vehicle.
There were eight shots into the vehicle.
They found those same eight shell casings and they found the shards of glass that matched the fucking rental vehicle.
Gentlemen, now that y'all saw this, you guys haven't even heard all the evidence yet.
What do y'all think?
Give me a one-minute chat if you think is Melly's guilty.
Give me a two in the chat if you think he's innocent.
Go ahead.
Oh, Lord.
I think we're back in the trial, though.
I want to see what y'all think.
I didn't even go into the full situation.
I just showed y'all some of it.
I didn't even go all the way and read the affidavit for y'all, all the way.
Oh, Lord.
Jury entry.
They got it muted, right?
Oh, hold on.
Thank you.
Please be seated.
I'd like to reflect the importance of the defendant.
I'm just going to have for the assistance of the claims, the ladies and gentlemen, jury.
I hope you all had a nice lunch.
Ladies and gentlemen, we hope the state is still on its case in chief.
I'm going to ask the attorney to call for the next witness, please.
Rebecca McSugall.
Ladies
and gentlemen, we hope the state is still on its case in chief.
He's the whole truth and nothing but her truth.
I do.
Do you think you're fully domain for the record?
And then it's Rebecca McDougall, N-A-C, D-O-U-G-A.
All right, guys, while they're swearing, we're in, I just put a, what's it called?
A poll in the chat for y'all.
I want to see what you guys think.
Basically, did me reading the affidavit reveal info you didn't know and convince you?
And I didn't even finish it.
Yes or no?
And I want your honest opinion, guys.
Let's see what the chat says.
For those of you that are just joining us, this is the medical examiner in the Melly cases.
It's probably going to be the prosecution's most important witness.
Let's get into it.
Ready to proceed?
Yes, sir.
You may.
Thank you.
Good afternoon, Doctor.
How are you?
I'm good.
Are you very well?
Can you please introduce yourself to the ladies and gentlemen of the jury?
Yes, my name is Rebecca McTougall.
And where do you work?
I work at the Parker County Medical Examiner's Office.
What is your title at the Broward County Medical Examiner's Office?
I'm the Chief Medical Examiner.
How long have you been the Chief Medical Examiner?
Right at two years.
Okay, so June of 2021.
June of 21, I was interim, July of 2020.
Word on it was official.
Okay, with your permission, Doctor, you can do the math because I'm not put at it.
So please don't need to do anymore.
Two years.
Okay, thank you.
Prior to being the chief medical examiner, what other positions have you held at the Broward Medical Examiner's Office?
So in 2010, I was a fellow, which is your last year of training before you become a forensic methodologist.
From July 1st of 2010 to June 30th, 2011, I stayed at Broward County from July 1st of 2011 until November of 2015 as an associate medical examiner.
I went up to Palm Beach County and I was an associate medical examiner in Palm Beach County for 18 months and I came back to Broward in 2018.
She's going over her training experience, which makes her qualified to testify.
2017.
And I've been an associate there until June of 2021.
So 13 years as a forensicologist, two years as chief.
So have you worked at any other medical examiner's offices as well on a temporary basis?
Yes, so when I was an associate medical examiner, I worked to vote in Tunisia for a long weekend and help another districts in Florida that are short staffed.
So I did that in Volusha County and I did it in Pinellas Pasco County.
Can you distract to the ladies and gentlemen of the jury?
does a forensic pathologist do?
I do.
We are charged with determining cause and manner of death in cases that come under the jurisdiction of our office based on Florida statute and administrative code.
And what is the jurisdiction of the office that you currently work for as the chief medical examiner?
District 17, Prowder County.
You mentioned that you determine cause and manner of death.
What does that mean?
That's correct.
So cause of death is the initiating event that leads to death.
Okay, if someone has cystic fibrosis, you know, diabetes maladus, if somebody falls off a ladder and gets a brain bleed, if someone's in a motor vehicle accident and they pass away.
So that would be cause.
That's caused.
So when's a manner of death?
So manner of death, there are five.
Okay, there's natural, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, heart disease, accident.
You fall off that ladder and you get a brain bleed.
Motor vehicle, collision, suicide, which is when a person takes their own life, so at their own hands, homicide, which to the forensic pathologist is death at the hands of another.
And sometimes, no matter how many medical records we review, how many tests we do at the autopsy, we do not have a clear cause or manner of death.
And in those cases, they're best classified as undetermined.
And in terms of how do you do that?
This is a really important testimony, guys.
Please pay close attention to this one, ma'am.
Determining cause and manner of death.
You do an autopsy.
Do you define that for the can, so means to look within.
So it's an examination after somebody passes away to determine what caused their death.
So you examine all the organs, any injuries they might have, medical records if they're available, if they're needed.
We can do toxicology testing.
We can do microbiology testing, so cultures, fibril bacterial.
Sometimes we do genetics.
Just depends on the circumstances surrounding the death decides which path we take on what tests need to be done at the time of the autopsy.
Okay, so Dr. Talk to ask a little bit about what training and education you had to become the chief medical examiner for Broward County.
So I did my undergraduate degree in biology at the University of Texas.
I went to medical school, which is another four years, at the Health Science Center in Houston, Texas.
That was also University of Texas.
I did a four-year anatomic and clinical pathology residency at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, and then finished it with my one-year fellowship in Brown County.
And in terms of exposure to cadavers or dead bodies during your medical school years, how often do you deal with that?
So the first 18 weeks of medical school is gross anatomy.
All right.
She's, again, I know this is monotonous, but she's doing this to establish the witness's credibility.
I know she has a mask on, but you guys are going to remember some of these medical professionals are kooks, but that does not disqualify their expertise when it comes to being able to testify to, you know, a murdered person's wounds and establishing if they were alive or not when shots were fired.
You know, to be honest, like that's very simple for someone of her caliber to decipher.
So she's probably overqualified for this testimony, even though she, you know, she's wearing a mask, which is, you know, it is what it is.
Any uterus, any prostate, any cancer, all come to you in the pathology lab at the hospital, and you then diagnose and stage the cancers or the appendicitis or fallopia tubes, you know, anything that comes out of an operating room travels through the pathology apartment at that hospital.
And did you work as a pathology assistant as well?
I did.
And what's the patent deal?
So during my residency, I would, so it's called grossing in pathology specimens at the private hospital in Lubbock.
Do you teach in the areas of forensic pathology?
We do.
And what have you done?
So we have public defender attorneys, we have state attorneys, we have private attorneys, law enforcement, medical students, EMTs, nurses, nurse practitioners all come through our office.
For COVID, they didn't, but we're starting that up again so they can learn about disease, the natural disease process, and also autopsies.
Do you participate in any board or panels such as the child death review in Broward County?
I do.
I do the child death review, which means once a month that we talk about children that have died in Broward County.
I do the open-white death review once a month where we talk about the drug overdoses that are occurring in Broward County.
I do three separate trauma meetings.
Broward County has three trauma hospitals.
Once a month, they have their separate hospital meeting, and then the fourth meeting once a month with everybody together to talk about trauma cases for people that passed away in Broward County due to trauma.
So in terms of the amount of time that you spend in the morgue actually doing autopsies now, what percentage of your daily work with them?
So basically I work every holiday so that my docs can have full weekends and holidays.
And then if we're especially busy in the morg, I will pop in and do a case or two.
Okay, so prior to becoming the chief medical examiner, what percentage of your work was actually performing autopsies?
Well, if we work 23 days a month, we're usually on service six days a month.
You know, we do probably five autopsies every time we're on service, plus whatever external examinations.
We don't have to autopsy every person that comes to the medical examiner's office.
Sometimes they come, especially in the fall and in the winter, our snowbirds, you know, usually have a very well-documented medical history.
But if they die in Broward County without a physician in Broward County as their primary care doctor, then they have to come to our office so somebody can sign their death certificate.
If you die in Broward County, your death certificate has to be signed by someone that's licensed to practice medicine in the state of Florida.
So if they come from New York with six months worth of medicines and their primary care docs in New York, because that's where they live half the year, then they have to come through our office.
We make sure there's no trauma.
And then we can review medical records and just do an external examination on those people.
So are you a medical doctor?
I am.
And in what states are you licensed?
I am licensed in Florida, Texas, Mississippi, and New Jersey.
I know this is boring, guys.
This might be annoying or whatever.
But again, the prosecutor's doing this on purpose to establish competency, professionalism, the subject's credibility, so it can't be challenged later on.
So she has to go through this to show that this woman knows what the fuck she's talking about because she's about to be their key witness.
So the prosecutor is going to prop her up in the highest level of authority to show all her credentials to the jury to show that she is absolutely overqualified to get the testimony she's about to give, guys.
This is, I mean, depending on the subject matter expert, depending on how important their testimony is, we'll typically have the prosecutor asking the individual more qualifying questions to show their level of expertise to build more and more credibility for the jury.
So it's going to be harder for the defense to attack her professional opinions later.
That's why she's doing this because she knows the defense is going to try to attack her professional takes on things.
So she's doing this to establish a foundation that y'all can't fuck with this bitch.
Are you certified?
She might be crazy with a mask, but she knows what she's talking about.
Every 10 years you would have to take another board exam.
Now a year ago, they decided that we could just answer 15 questions every three months.
And as long as we maintained a certain percentage on those questions, then we would not have to take that.
Yo, shout out to Dr. B84 in the chat.
He's a doctor.
Doc, when you hear her, let me know what you think of her credentials.
I'd like to get your take on it.
All right.
Because some of the people here in the audience might not understand, even myself, some of the jargon that's being thrown here with, you know, certification, all this other stuff.
So let me know your thoughts.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Dr. McDougal, with regards to the number of autopsies that you have performed during your career, where are you at currently?
Over 3,000 people.
Have you had the opportunity to come to court before to testify as an expert in the area of forensic pathology?
I have.
How many times?
Over 100.
In what jurisdictions?
Calm Beach County and Kirk Carey.
You're at the Center of Standard Council for Blood Ireland in the area of expertise?
I have no questions.
Thank you.
Okay, so you mentioned earlier that there's a definition as to homicide for a forensic pathologist.
That's correct.
Is that a murder?
Death at the hands of the nurse to me.
Help me.
Okay.
Did you have an opportunity to become involved in an investigation under the Broward Medical Examiner's Office case?
All right, so boom, you got another doctor verifying her credibility.
It's very extensive like mine.
Basically, she went to medical school residents fellowship and is licensed to practice medicine independently.
Bam, there you go, guys.
2018-3118.
I did.
What was your involvement?
So I was the medical examiner on service that day.
So this case came in at like 4:45 in the morning, I believe, 5 o'clock in the morning.
So it becomes my case, it says anything before 7 a.m. this morning.
There was a double homicide.
Broward County Medical Examiner's Office has a fellowship program.
I was one of the fellows.
And so I took one of the cases, and our fellow Dr. Sauter took the other case, a companion case in this case.
So I did the autopsy on Mr. Williams.
She's commissioned all proceed.
Okay, so you said you performed the autopsy and an individual who later came there to you as Anthony Williams.
That's correct.
So you talked about the fellowship and that you said it was the last year for you?
That's correct.
In terms of what is your role in supervising the fellow?
So there are five associate medical examiners in my office and one deputy chief medical examiner.
So when the fellow is on service with you, it is your responsibility to be there.
July and August, you're real close, right?
Because they're just starting.
They've done probably 50 autopsies in their residency.
So the first month or two, you're right there by them.
But as they graduate and show you that they're competent, that they know what they're doing, then they will do their autopsies and come to you if they have any questions.
You're also responsible for reviewing their report before it's signed out.
Okay.
So in this case, with regards to the autopsy of Anthony Williams, were there photographs that were taken?
There were.
Would those photographs help explain and illustrate the ability to know the jury the process and how that is under so you're showing what's been previously done to defense counsel as marked as a triple Z for identification purposes only Dr. McDougall did you have an opportunity to look through those photos I did on the main court I did do they fairly and accurately depict the autopsy of one Anthony Williams on October 26th of 2018 they do do they
reflect the Brown County Medical Examiner's Office case number that was assigned they do here at this time the state would request to remove eight triple Z in at stage 73 any objection or previous not previously right now any objections over there will be institutional they posit 23 photos and one USB stage triple Z on stage 73 I'm sorry So,
Doctor, before we get into the actual photos, can you explain what a scene visit is?
I can.
So, the medical examiner by statute and administrative code has jurisdiction over a body.
Okay, so when the a decedent passes away on the scene, the medical examiner or and or the investigator will go to that scene.
These individuals were transported to the hospital.
They died at the hospital.
So, therefore, at the time of the examination, there was no scene to visit.
Okay, so I'm going to go to four and how do you receive the body of Mr. Williams?
So, when the body leaves the hospital, it actually the two zippers on the bag get a seal put through them.
It comes to our office, and this was actually the same morning.
So, these two, this individual came straight into our office, and then probably within an hour or two was ready to be examined.
So, the bag is sealed at the hospital, comes to our office.
The very first photograph we take is a photograph of that seal, so we can show that it's still intact, and it must be broken by the medical examiner on duty.
And did you receive it from the body of Mr. Williams in this way?
I did.
Okay, what in the picture that we're looking at, which is, and we put on number two, is numbered for the purposes of the record.
What does this picture show?
So, this is one end of the body bag with the two zippers in place with the red seal between it, still intact.
That case number 183118, so that is the 3118 case for the medical examiner in the year 2018.
That is a unique identifying number for this case and will be in every photograph that is taken for this examination.
For the purposes of orientation, the letter, the top of the A in almost each photograph, what direction does it point towards?
So, the letter should point towards the head.
Okay, so every photograph that we see, the case number, to look at it properly, the head should be above the number when you're looking at it the right way.
So, prior to opening the bag, is there a scan or some sort of x-ray that's done?
So, Briar County is lucky enough to have what's called a LODOX.
It's low radiation full body x-ray.
So, every single case that comes into our office gets both an AP, which is a front to back, and a lateral, which is from the side, x-ray.
So, we have those.
Okay, so you said AP.
I know you know what that means, but if you could describe to the ladies and gentlemen of the jury what that means.
So, anterior and posterior, so the beam of the radiation is going through.
When you look at the body, it's the way you would see.
I'm not asleep, motherfuckers.
I just want y'all to pay attention to what she's talking about.
I am here, goddammit.
I ain't going nowhere, okay?
Don't demoncoise me.
All right, I'm not fucking leaving!
The show goes up!
This is my home!
They're gonna need a fucking wrecking ball to take me out of here!
Don't underestimate me, motherfuckers.
Then we do one that's a lateral where the beam goes like the video ninjas through the side of the body so we get the side.
That allows us, especially if we're looking for foreign objects in the body, if I only have a picture front to back, I can tell about where it is front to back, but where is it?
Is it right up here or is it closer to the back of the body?
So, we have a lateral x-ray that we take, so I can see where in space in 2D, not as good as 3D, right?
But I get a 2D orientation of where that foreign object might be.
Okay, in terms of when you're describing your findings, do you do them in anatomical positions?
Yes.
And can you describe what that is to the lady's during?
I can.
Can I show you?
Please, if that would help you?
Yes, sir.
So anatomic position is with your hands out like this, Elmer surface forward, just like this.
When you are describing your findings in anatomical position, are you in any way suggesting that is the position the body within when any injuries or defects were inflicted upon?
I am not.
To go back before we go into the photos of the autopsy itself, would you describe to the ladies and gentlemen the journey what you do during autopsy?
Sure.
So the first thing that the pathologist will do is break that.
Don't worry, guys, we're going to get to the picture soon.
She's breaking down what she does at the autopsy before they talk about the show the photos.
Seal.
Okay, that seal is broken.
The bag is opened, and we take what we call overall photographs.
These are photographs that are taken before we do anything to the body, before we move the body, before we clean the body.
We take photographs so we can see it as is.
Once that is done, then we'll take the body out of the body bag.
We will look for any identifying features, so scars, tattoos, defects.
We take pictures of the hands as they are.
Once we're satisfied with those photographs, then we will clean the body.
And once the body is cleaned, then we will take overall photographs again with the body cleaned.
Then we will take both an orientation shot and a close-up shot of any defects, scars, or identifying marks.
Okay, so after you've done, it sounds like an external examination.
Is there another part of the autopsy procedure?
So then we do the internal examination.
Okay.
And when you're doing the internal examination, what do you do?
So we're looking for any kind of injury, disease, anything that's abnormal, right?
Also, want to look at what is normal.
So we look at all of the organs, weigh all of the organs, and complete our exam.
Okay, so I want to go back to what was literally on the photos labeled as photo one.
And so if we can describe what we are looking at here on photo one, then so this is the and here we go.
AP or anterior posterior full body x-ray that was taken before the bag was opened.
So in terms of the different colors and things that we are looking at in this, what do you see that is medically significant?
I'm not a radiologist, but what I will tell you is that this is a projectile and there are projectile fragments in the head.
This is dental restorations.
Don't tell me law of crime is pussy now.
I'm not going to put it on here.
In terms of any of the other things on this that are.
These are all buttons, I think, from the hospital now.
Okay.
So it's his artifact from the clothing that he's wearing.
So going on to the next photo here.
I'm just going to zoom in just a little bit.
What is this picture showing?
So this is one of our overall photographs that we take once the body has been cleaned.
What you can see in this photograph is what later becomes known as an entrance gunshot wound, a defect, a circular law of crime is probably debating if they're going to show this.
So let's see what happens.
Defect to the middle of the chest.
And that was this 30 pictures of the hands and then we take clean picture.
What are we looking at here?
And wounds are usually wounds that are on the extremities.
They don't have to be on the hands.
They're most commonly on the hands.
They can be on the forearms.
They can be on the shins.
Any part of your extremities that can move to block your core from any kinds of injuries.
Okay, so you law of crime, I guess they're scared.
Your legs, your arms, or your hands will get in the way of something that's coming out.
All right, guys, I'm going to look for another stream that's showing the photos.
If anyone finds it, let me know in the chat.
I guarantee there's got to be other people that are covering this case that might be not pussies to show the photos.
So let me know.
Throw it in the chat if you guys find one, but I'm going to search on the side while I keep this rolling.
Okay.
So moving on to photograph number nine.
Side of the right hand, no injuries.
And photograph number 10.
So the inside of the right hand, no injuries.
So I'm going to move on to what's been labeled as entrance wound B. Can you describe for the ladies and gentlemen of the jury where this wound on this gunshot wound B entrance wind is?
So it's in the middle of the chest.
Okay.
In terms of do you document in your report the distance from the top of the head?
I do.
I don't memorize that.
So it's like a little proportion.
You need to refresh your record, please.
So that wound is 19 and a quarter inches.
I don't know if that's below the top of the head.
And in terms of the left to right distance, how far is that?
It's one half inch right of the anterior midline.
And can you define for the ladies and gentlemen of the jury what is a perforating gunshot wound?
I can.
So for gunshot wounds, for forensic pathologists, there's two kinds.
There's a penetrating gunshot wound.
It goes in, doesn't come out, penetrates.
I recover a projectile.
Then there is a perforating gunshot wound.
It perforates the body.
I have an entrance and I have an exit and I don't collect a projectile.
I projectile.
And so Dr. McCougall, so the ladies and gentlemen of the jury had an idea.
How many autopsies have you done in which gunshot wounds have been a cause of death?
Probably 600 or 700.
The gunshot wound that we're looking at right here, is there anything about soot stippling or muzzle infringement?
So this is an forensic pathology, we have three snippling guys, the burn marks that get on the skin after someone is shot close contact.
Different ranges of fire.
And for gunshot wounds, we are tasked with trying to determine the range of fire.
There is what's called a contact gunshot wound, which means that the muzzle...
Yeah, Fred reacts to the pussy.
If I was...
Sorry, I said Federax.
That's how tired I am.
Law Crime is pussy, bro.
If it was me, I would have showed y'all this shit, man.
If I had the photos, I'll say whatever.
Give me the demonetization.
I'll show you how to pick.
Look the guns up against the target when the gun goes off.
In those cases, you have a nice round deposition of soot.
Telebundo is really showing it.
Y'all capping, bro.
Y'all capping.
If somebody got the links, put them in the chat.
On the entrance wound.
The next is called intermediate.
With an intermediate gunshot wound, if you take your target and your gun and you move away from your target, okay, so you're far enough away now that you're not going to leave a nice room of soot, you're going to get something that's called stipple.
Okay, so the gunpowder coming out of the gun will tattoo the skin.
You will get a nice pattern, a spray of stipple on the skin.
Those are intermediate gunshot wounds.
With indeterminate gunshot wounds, that either means that the muzzle of the gun is far enough away from the target that all the gunpowder falls off before the projectile hits the body, or there's something in the way of the skin between the skin and the weapon that any evidence of close-range firing would be on that clothing.
Okay, if you have someone that's shot in the chest, you'd want to look for evidence of close-range firing on what they're wearing because it has to go through that before it hits the body.
And that gunpowder is not going to get to the skin because the clothes are in the way.
Okay, and so, Doctor, I want to make sure we understand on intermediate on that.
Do you do any range of fire testing?
On clothing?
What about on the skin or human body?
You have to do it.
No.
You have to do it on clothing.
Is any of that your area of expertise where you would recreate that?
On the clothing?
Yes.
No.
And on intermediate gunshot wounds, is there a textbook answer for distance?
There is a textbook answer.
And what would that be?
So the textbook answer is three inches to three feet.
In terms of without having a specific weapon, can you get any more than that?
Best way to get the distance on a certain person would be to take the exact same gun with the exact same ammunition with a white sheet of paper, right, until you get far enough away that the distance of your sniffle pattern on your paper matches what it was on the skin.
If you don't have a pattern, can you do that recreation?
Cannot.
So, continuing on, talking about the lit wound labeled B, how can you tell if that is an entrance versus an exit wound?
So, entrance wounds classically have something called a rim of abrasion.
Okay, so on this particular trench hot wound labeled B, I have a marginal rim of abrasion.
I'm going to go forward now to B. I'm going to turn it in.
So, this is my rim of abrasion to hear a little bit of 12 for the record.
So, the entrance is right here, and the rim of abrasion is this piece of the abrasion on the skin right there.
So, Dr. McDew, why is there more rim of abrasion on one side than the other?
So, when you're looking at gunshot wounds, what that tells you is that the projectile is coming from that side of the body.
Okay, so when a projectile all right, guys, pay attention.
I'm just going to talk about wound patterns in the side.
Okay, this will be very important.
Hits a target skin straight on, you'll get what's called a circumferential rim of abrasion, which means the rim of abrasion goes all the way around the circle.
Okay, if it enters from the right side of the body at an angle, and then the right side of that circular gunshot wound is going to have a marginal abrasion.
If it enters from the bottom, that abrasion is going to be along the bottom.
Top, the rim of abrasion will be on the left-hand side, the rim of abrasion will be on the left-hand side.
Okay, so I'm going to go back to the previous photo.
If you could then explain and show on this what direction the projectile is coming from.
So, the projectile is coming from his right-hand side.
And you're putting an anatomical position?
In anatomical position, that's correct.
Okay, moving on to the next photo here, which is labeled as photo number 14 on this.
What are we looking at in photo number 14?
So, on the top of his right shoulder is the third entrance gunshot wound.
And the third entrance gunshot wound each.
Was that even a label?
It was labeled.
Is that C?
It's a C, yes, ma'am.
The victim's head is up there by seven.
Is that mean he was seven foot tall?
Well, it depends on where his feet are.
Do you document the height and weight of the decedent when these parts run in?
We do.
And what was for Mr. Williams?
So he's 76 inches in length and 172 pounds.
Can you convert that 76 inches to feet, please?
I can.
It's six feet four inches in length.
Okay.
In terms of the photo that we're looking at here, on this particular wound, which is later assigned the label of C, what type of wound is this?
Penetrating or perforating?
So this is a penetrating, so that has an entrance wound in the way.
Man, I really wish that we had these photos, man.
Law and crime, bro, they're soft, bro.
They're scared to fucking get demonetized, probably.
That's what it is.
Exactly.
So it's also an entrance wound.
Sometimes you just got to do it for the people, man.
Like, these dudes out here are buzzy, mine.
Don't demonstrate.
Oh, come on, man.
These dudes is a big L. Wrong.
Going on to what's labeled as A. Can you explain to the ladies and gentlemen of the jury where is this wound A?
I can.
So, correct?
Is that consistent with the medical examiner's office number that was assigned for the autopsy of Anthony Williams?
It is.
Okay, prior to coming into court today, did you have an opportunity to place markings on this styrofoam head to approximate the locations of the wounds on Mr. Williams?
I did.
And would this help and assist in demonstrating to the jury where those wounds were in position on those photographs?
It will show the wound path as well.
Okay.
So, Your Honor, this might state the wins to use the demonstration.
They want to strike the channel.
They would just, they would just like probably give it an age restriction because it's legal, bro.
They wouldn't, and this detective said they would strike the channel.
No, they wouldn't, bro.
It's just that they're scared because they don't want to get a yellow check.
But sometimes I say fuck it.
I show shit to y'all, even if it's going to get me a yellow check, because sometimes it's worth it.
And shit like this, it would be worth it.
To assist the witness in explaining or illustrating her testimony, as I said, the testimony of the witnesses and the evidence.
This demonstrative is not to be considered valuable as evidence in the case unless it's later received in evidence.
Only items that are actually received in evidence would be going back with you to the jury room during deliberations.
And so, Dr. McDougall, can you be kind enough to show where on that head would be entrance wound A?
So the approximate position of that entrance wound is about right here.
And you said this was a what type of gunshot wound?
This is a perforating gunshot wound, which means I have an entrance and an exit.
Yeah, look, yeah, they're the only ones streaming this shit, which kind of sucks.
And where was that exit?
The exit is on the right temporal scalp.
And how is, I'm going to skip ahead to that exit, which is E. That's correct.
Okay.
And so is E shown on there.
The approximate location of the exit wound on this amazing is about right there.
Okay.
For the wounds A to E, as labeled on the photo, was that wound fatal?
It is a fatal wound, yes.
What injuries were associated with the wound tract of A to E?
So that projectile goes through the scalp, the skull, the dura matter, the brain.
There is subgalial, subdural, and subarrachnoid hemorrhage, and multiple fractures of the bones of the skull.
Okay, so a lot of medical terms.
Let's slow down and define them.
So what is a subgallial hemorrhage?
So your scalp, right?
Your head, the skin that's on your head, when you reflect it back, the underside of that is called the gallia.
Okay, so if you have hemorrhage in the underside of the skin on your head, that's a subgallial hemorrhage.
When you inside your head is your yo, Dr. B, give us your take on this, man, on this testimony.
Like, go ahead and comment, I'll highlight your comments because we got an actual doctor in the house, so I'd like to see what you think as well.
You have a cover on your brain that is called dura matter.
Okay, so you have your brain, you have this dura matter, and then your skull.
All right, so if I have subdural hemorrhage, sub means underneath, I have blood between the brain and the dura.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage, the arachnoid is a very fine membrane that covers the brain, and that is hemorrhage in that space.
So there are different spaces within the cranial cavity where blood collects.
Dr. B84 says she's very thorough right now.
If you could just make sure that that word is defined in your context as a forensic pathologist.
So hemorrhage means there's bleeding.
All of us non-doctors here, Dr. B84 says she's explaining how a gun causes a head bleed.
Thank you, my friend.
But after you bump into something or have some sort of trauma.
Okay.
So I want to go back to wound A. So I'm going to go back to that photo.
Shout out to King Life.
EvNet Mods are qualified to many disciplined facts.
On A, is there an abrasion margin?
There's a very small abrasion margin around that wound.
And is it concentric?
It is.
And what does that mean?
It means it's all the way, it's around the whole thing as opposed to a marginal abrasion, which we saw before, which is just on one part of the entrance wound.
This abrasion encompasses the whole entrance wound.
The wound track or pattern, were there fragments that were recovered along this wound tract?
There were.
Should I counsel what's been previously worked at stage quadruple B?
Dr. McGigo, prior to coming in court today, did you have the opportunity to review the items inside state quadruple B outside the presence of the jury?
I did.
Do you recognize what is in there?
I do.
What is it?
Those are the projectile frywoods that were collected at the autopsy.
And are they in the same or substantially same condition as when they were collected?
They are.
They have yours initial on the evidence tape on the outside.
They do.
You're at the sign of the state with requests to move state quadruple B in at state 74.
Any objection?
No, sir.
It'll be admitted.
States quadruple V.74.
So they're admitting evidence in right now, guys.
That's where all these funny numbers and everything else come in.
And you can see that I think she signed and sealed it for the chain of custody evidence.
So that's what they're doing right now.
The entrance versus psyche.
Because it has an abrasion margin.
Okay.
Abrasions are usually only associated with entrance wounds.
Exit wounds are more commonly lacerated.
And when we look at wound E, we'll see that it's a lacerated defect.
In terms of any sort of soot stippling, did you note that on this particular injury?
So I called the range of fire on this case in the tournament.
Okay, there are, can you go out?
Sure.
I just want to show.
So, you know, indeterminate, indeterminate does not mean distant.
Indeterminate means I don't know.
So, you know, you could say that might be stipple, that little defect right there.
That might be stipple, but that's right around a hair follicle.
And if you look over here, there are areas where you can tell they're scarring.
So when you look at the nape of the neck, or gentlemen get shaved, maybe they're grown hairs, and you can have folliculitis, it's called.
I'm not going to say this is intramediate with three, maybe four ditzels, I call them.
That might be soot.
I actually took a microscopic session of one of these to try to see if I could see any evidence of gun shock residue, gunpowder, stipple.
And the one section that I took was basically the epidermis to the top layer of your skin was normal and there was some blood underneath.
Hey, Doc, Dr. B84, question for you, bro.
The way this guy got shot in the back of the neck that went out the top of their head, would they have died instantly or would have they felt pain during the shooting and like maybe choke on their blood or something like that?
Was it an instant death or was it a slow, painful one?
That's going to be very important for the jury to know as well.
Let me know your professional opinion.
Say that that for sure is intermediate.
In terms of this particular injury, was the individual alive when it was inflicted?
Yes.
How can you tell that?
From the hemorrhage.
Is there any sort of other things that would help and assist you in demonstrating the difference between hemorrhage and not?
Or if you look at the other injuries.
Okay.
So let's move on then to gunshot wound C. So this is gunshot wound C, which was on the back of the right shoulder.
Okay, the abrasion collar around that wound is not hemorrhagic.
What that tells me is that there is no circulation to that part of the body when that gunshot wound is inflicted.
All right, so based on Dr. B84's professional experience, he says it's hard to determine exactly.
And remember, guys, the question I asked was getting shot in the back of the neck like that and the bullet going out the top of your head, would it be painful?
Did the victim experience a lot of pain before dying or was it instant?
He goes, it's hard to determine exactly, but most likely pretty quickly since it did cause a head bleed, that was extensive based on her pathology report.
Okay, fair enough.
Doc, would you say that the individual was, I guess, conscious and aware of it, or did they instantly like go into shock and not feel the pain?
I mean, I know I'm going in the weeds here, but I think it's going to be important for the jury to know if he felt pain and suffering before he died, or did he just kind of like go on a shock and not really feel that at that point?
If the guy got shot in the middle of the neck, then he definitely then of his neck, then it definitely would have been fast.
Okay.
Okay.
Cool.
Let me know if you know the other answers to that second part, but yeah, let's keep going.
Shout out to having a doctor in the house, man.
Donna Marco for Dr. B84 in the chat, man.
Dom de Marco.
Okay, and he follows up and he says, Super hard to say, but you probably did feel pain.
Okay, yeah.
Thanks, Doc.
I appreciate that greatly, man.
We got a fucking doctor in the house, man.
Chats is lit.
An example of what you would see if they were inflicted within seconds of each other.
Well, I can tell you the hundreds of gunshot wound cases, not even, I just had a stab in the case, but in the hundreds of cases that I've done, the thousands of cases that I've done, there are only three where I can tell you the order in which the shots occurred because some were before the person passed away and some after.
You know, I've got hundreds of gunshot wound cases where they're shot 15, 20, 25 times, and every single gunshot has hundreds.
So are they within seconds?
No.
But I can't tell you.
Is it five minutes?
Is it 30 minutes?
There's no way for me to tell you what the timeframe between gunshot wound A to E is from when B and C inflicted.
Moving on to D. What about this?
Just so you guys know, these gunshot wounds that they're talking about now are the gunshot wounds after the fact when they had already died.
Okay.
The drive-by, I'll call them the drive-by wounds.
All right, the stage of drive-by.
This particular mark tells you that this is an exit wound.
So D is an exit wound.
It's lacerated, okay, because you have a blind force object, the projectile, traveling at a very high, well, traveling at a rate of speed and with enough energy to perforate the skin, and it causes a laceration.
All right, so Doc goes, and even she can't tell you how long it took in this case.
Yeah, fair enough.
Doc, if you have to make an educated guess based on your training experience, how long do you think he was alive before he died?
Are we talking 30 seconds?
Are we talking a minute, two minutes, three minutes?
10 minutes?
In your professional experience, how long do you think he lived after the gunshot?
And so this is photo number 16 for the record.
Can you explain, and I'm going to go forward on to photo number 17 so you can explain what a laceration is and what it looks like.
Yeah, so this skin is lacerated.
There's no abrasion margin around it, and it's consistent with an exit wound.
And in terms of where on the body is D located?
So it's right almost underneath the arpit lung pit.
And down the left-hand side of the back.
Going back to picture 16, which direction is the body facing when this photo is taken?
Face down.
Okay.
Going on to photograph number 20 for the record.
What are we looking at here?
So this is the left lung as a trajectory rod through it showing the pathway of the projectile.
What is interesting in this photograph is that there's absolutely no hemorrhage around any of those wounds.
Okay, your lungs are very vascular, right?
Because your lungs are.
Shout out to Doc with a really fucking great response here.
He says, I'd say, and my question was, how long do you think he was alive after he had been shot prior to dying?
So in other words, how long was he suffering?
Doc says, I'd say a few minutes and maybe up to 30 minutes or one hour at the most.
That depends on how fast the head bleed grew before eventually crushing his brain.
Doc, another Don Demarco for you, bro.
I appreciate you giving us your professional insights on this.
Shout out to you, my friend.
Responsible for taking the oxygen out of the air you breathe and pushing it into your head.
I thought it would have been like 10 seconds or some shit.
So that changes things a lot.
Your blood, right?
In the really small sacs in your lung.
So an injury to your lung is going to bleed a lot if your heart is beating.
Okay, there's no hemorrhage in the upper or the lower lobe of the lung lung.
And so when you say hemorrhage, what would it look like on a photo?
What would you be looking for?
So there would be, so blood would leak out into the area around that line and it would not look pink with brown black staining.
It would look red because it's full of blood.
And so Dr. McDougal, remind the ladies and gentlemen of the jury, what entrance and exit wound does this correspond with?
So this is entrance wound B that goes to exit wound D moving on to what has been admitted as photograph number 18.
Can you describe it for the ladies and gentlemen of the jury?
Now y'all see why the state is trying to do a pushing for murder.
What we're looking at here.
Excuse me, they're pushing for the death penalty of Melly.
Sorry, guys, I haven't slept yet, man.
I'm dying over here.
This is the exit wound E that went with entrance wound A. The back of the neck comes out the right side of.
Dr. B adds a little bit more context, says it depends also where the head bleed was.
That's why it's difficult to give an exact timeframe.
No, man, you're good, bro.
You gave a really good range, you know.
But damn, it's a lot longer than I expected, though.
So that answers my question for sure.
Thank you, Doc.
The temporal scalp.
This is with the scalp reflected forward.
So we do an incision across the head behind the ears.
We reflect the scalp forward and back.
And what this is showing you is this is hemorrhage.
Okay, this is blood.
This is bleeding.
there is a heartbeat.
And so with regards to now E, at this point, this job is back on this photo, which we've already talked about here.
Can you explain why this is a laceration?
So we shave it to show, I mean, it's consistent with a laceration.
There's no abraded margin.
It's consistent with an exit wound.
Anyway, shout out to Dr. B in the chat, giving a little bit more insight.
Since we don't have pictures to go off of, he's given, you know, his professional experience on the side, you know, answering some more nuanced questions for y'all.
So shout out to him, man.
In terms of what has been previously admitted, state 74.
Is this the projectile fragments, the photo of them that have been introduced into evidence?
That's correct.
Why do you recover these?
Because, I mean, we usually recover projectiles and fragments so that, you know, tone them over so that the crime scene can do whatever gun testing they want to do with the projectiles.
These pieces are probably too small, but it's still evidence.
So we collect all the evidence outside of and on the body to get to law enforcement in case they need it.
Was there any evidence of medical intervention for Mr. Williams?
No.
And what would that mean?
So sometimes people are transported to the hospital.
They still have a heartbeat.
And so the trauma team or the emergency room doctors are going to want to do whatever they can do to save that person's life.
So sometimes with gunshot wounds, especially, you can have, you know, they can put chest tubes in, they can do a thoracotomy, which is where they open up the side of your, you know, they open up your rib cage to try to get your heart beating again.
I mean, there's lots of things that they will do to try to save somebody's life.
Were there any of, and so there was none of those in this case?
There were none.
In terms of the rest of the internal examination, were there any other findings that led to the death of Mr. Williams other than the gunshot wound you talked about?
There are none.
Do you collect samples for the purpose of processing for toxicology?
We do.
And do you do that testing?
We have a toxicology lab.
I don't do it partially with a toxicologist that does it.
And did you do that for Mr. Williams?
We did.
And in terms of the results of that toxicology, what showed up?
So he has mirror warm THC and Maryworm metabolite.
And can you give any sort of timeframe on the ingestion of those?
Sorry, it's not.
Based on your autopsy, did you come to an opinion as to the cause and manner of death, not for anything?
I did.
And what was that?
The cause of death is multiple gunshot wounds, and the manner of death is a homicide.
Well, can't get any more clearer than that.
Going forward, were you also involved briefly with the case number 18-3119?
I was.
And what was your involvement in that in March of 2022?
In March of 2022.
So prior to March 8th of 2022, it was brought to my attention that there was a gunshot wound on the lower extremity that we, Dr. Sauder and I, labeled as a penetrating gunshot wound.
No, sorry.
No.
I'm sorry.
We labeled it as a ballistic injury, okay?
Because we had a wound on the outside of the leg.
There was no projectile in the leg.
And there were just two little discles on the full body x-ray.
So it was most consistent with a projectile usually hitting something else and then just coming up against the skin to make a rivet in it, but not a projectile that goes through the leg.
One of the crime Chris was at the judge.
All right, so they're doing a sidebar now.
I'll mute that so you don't hear the weird static.
They're doing a sidebar now, which basically they're doing that.
Oh, hold on.
I got.
They're doing a sidebar.
As you guys know, we talked about that earlier.
Sidebar is basically where the attorneys talk and kind of convene and discuss legal matters or disagreements or whatever and how they're going to proceed.
But yeah, I mean, y'all could see this woman is on her P's and Q's.
I mean, she's literally done this with 3,000 bodies pretty much, and 600 to 700 of those are gunshot wounds.
So she knows what she's talking about in this situation.
So the defense is going to be, they're going to have to put some work in to deal with this, man.
I ain't going to lie.
Like, this is not going to be easy for them.
So we'll see what ends up happening here.
But yeah, let me hit some of these chats though while we wait.
We got here Honey Bones, Eidel Mubark.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.
Shokuna New Zealand.
Tailgate JT, five bucks.
Appreciate that.
Carisha M goes, could we get a breakdown of Hunter Biden's charges and when we can expect Aaron Hernandez breakdown?
Aaron Hernandez is coming.
Don't worry.
You guys will get that.
I just got to figure out how I'm going to do it because a lot of it is from the Netflix series and y'all know how Netflix is with YouTube.
And then Hunter Biden going to probably do that with Ryan Dawson.
Tailgate JT, two bucks.
Appreciate that.
Tailgate JT.
I was two during OJ and my mom still had the newspapers with it.
Yeah, bro.
It was a legendary case.
Overtime pay contribution.
Thank you, M and J. Do everything.
Mr. Easy goes, do you think the people doing commentary on law and crime are ignorant about the case or willfully trying to push the audience on a certain way?
I think they're just ignorant.
I don't think it's like intentionally ignorant.
I just think like they didn't study the case prior and they're going off of what they see at the trial and they didn't know the facts prior to the trial.
I think that's what it is.
Like they had like a general idea, but if any of these commentators actually read through the affidavit with the same level of detail that I have on multiple occasions, they would not be saying a lot of the goofy shit that they're saying here.
I mean, think about it, y'all.
Some of y'all don't like, it's one thing for me to tell y'all the facts.
It's another thing for me to pull up the affidavit, read it alongside you guys, show you the surveillance footage and show you the ludicrous and the asinine lies of Wynne W. Moreland, Fredo Bang, and all these other guys that have been lying on Melly's behalf.
It's clown world shit.
So that's why so many people know no, because they didn't actually do the work and read the legal documents.
Lego Gerf goes, never bring Banner Cart on the show again.
He has blue pilled alpha that says he created FNF.
Hey, man, I mean, like I said before, bro, we're not going to agree on everything.
He's the homie, man, so it is what it is.
Work hasn't been kind, so please take this as a toast of appreciation.
Thank you, man.
Thank you, my friend.
All right, the lady's back.
So let's go back to the 18-3119.
I didn't know who did.
Touch your sword.
So I want to go back to 18-3118.
We talked about this projectile that was recovered.
Did you recover an additional projectile in the body of any woman?
I did.
And where was that located?
In the right stack of the bone, like your shoulder blade, the wing of your back.
And in this next photo that we're looking at here, which is number 19, this number, is that where you retrieved that particular projectile?
And guys, what I'll probably do is I'll go to about five hours because I can see that I'm starting to operate on fumes here and I'm not as sharp as I should be.
So I'll go to five hours and then we'll close this bad boy out.
I'm really pissed off.
We didn't get to see the pictures, though.
Very lame.
That's correct.
So to orient you.
Sorry.
I worked out before this too.
I didn't even tell y'all that.
I did the stream, went to go get a quick meal, trained, and then came right up here and did the stream for y'all man.
I'm dying right now.
This is the neck, the back of the neck, the midline of the back.
Okay, the entrance wound is right here.
And it goes and it gets stopped by all that bulb.
And if you look at the muscles here, there's no tender tiger.
And so going on to this photo here, which is number 23, what are we looking at?
All right, they're on the last photo right now.
And that particular.
So that is the picture that I recovered from the y'all want to see how delusional Melly fans are.
Look at this.
I hit guilty.
Bruh, 75% of these niggas think he's innocent.
I guess common sense isn't that common.
Like over here, I read y'all the affidavit and most of y'all are sane and not retarded.
And y'all like, oh, damn.
I guess this thing is guilty.
These dudes over here, retarded, bro.
Yo, I'm telling you guys, man, most people are blue-pilled, bro.
Blue pilled as fuck.
When it comes to looking at facts, when it comes to women, when it comes to money, when it comes to, bro, it's not about being red-pilled with women alone.
No, it's about being red-pilled in all aspects of life and looking at things for what the fuck it is.
When you go in like a normie channel, like this channel, obviously there's 32K people watching here.
99% of people watching this shit are retarded normies that don't know what the fuck they're doing.
You know what I mean?
And then you wonder why people like Biden get an office.
Most Americans are fucking retarded.
I want y'all to understand this.
Most people are fucking retarded, guys.
Okay.
We went through that affidavit.
We know the facts over here on FedReacts.
We know what time it is.
We're not idiots, but y'all can see the stupidity of most people, man.
So if you're on this side of the internet, you're taking in this kind of content.
You're already head and shoulders above a typical normie, man.
Incredible.
70.
Look at this shit.
75% of these people really think this nigga's innocent, bro.
What the fuck?
Guys, comment says it's not so common.
Thank you, lucky stars.
You're on this side of the internet, man.
I have a moment to confirm it.
Yes.
And so, Dr. Hintz, we talked about B&D.
Was the victim Anthony Williams dead when the B&D was inflected to the balcony?
So when gunshot Wood B was inflicted, yes, he was set and it exited D. So it's one gunshot week.
All right.
So when C was inflicted, plus Anthony Williams said, yes.
I don't have any other questions.
Actually, approach her for a moment.
All right.
So direct examination is done.
Now the defense is going to cross-examine her, guys.
Okay.
So looks like they're going to take a short recess here.
Defense is going to do cross and we'll see what happens.
All right.
Let me go ahead and read some of these chats.
Jonathan Hogu goes, you made what you've been a slow day in the office a great day that flew by with his live stream.
Thank you, Myron, for your hard work.
I got you, my friend.
I am dying right now, barely keeping these eyes open, but I got y'all.
Corona Karen and Byron Gaines cooking up today.
We got you, man.
Corona, Karen.
That's actually funny.
Corona, Karen.
If the shooting was inside the car, how the shells end up outside on the street?
Can you explain this?
The reason why the shells ended up outside the street, guys, was because remember, one shell is inside the vehicle, right?
From being shot inside the vehicle.
And then the shells that were outside the vehicle from the crime scene were there from them shooting into the vehicle to stage the crime scene.
That's why you saw the shards of glass there as well.
There's me right there.
So, I didn't notice your fan himself and things like that as far as testing to try to see if they get the AC person back or again to lower the 8.
All right.
Anything to discuss this.
Anything from here?
we're in recess all right so they're going to recess right now uh What I'll probably do, guys, I'll end it here.
Defense is gonna do their cross, which to be honest with you, it's very difficult to cross-examine a medical professional like this because it's it's matter of fact.
You can't really sit there and be like, well, like, we know that that shot was fatal, but is it possible that fucking blood XYZ happened?
It's like, bruh, they died from these gunshot wounds that were at close range and it occurred in the vehicle.
Done.
Stipling is there.
There's no other way you can explain stipling being there and the wound patterns, etc.
They died from these single gunshot wounds.
Everything after the fact was after they were dead.
This is one of those witnesses that you really, it's very, you ain't going to be able to move her.
So we'll see what the defense tries to do.
But with that said, guys, I am going to try to get some sleep.
I am literally dying right now.
I have not slept and it's already 2:30 in the fucking afternoon.
So I love y'all.
I really do.
Don't forget to like the video.
We got a packed week for you guys.
We're going to have Jen Pratt and her husband come in to talk about paternity.
Then we're going to have, I don't know if Zerka is going to be able to make it.
I just got a text literally just now while we're on stream.
I don't know if he'll be able to make it for Wednesday.
But we'll probably have McQueen on for after hours.
Then we will have Scott Ritter on Thursday, which actually look really look forward to that, guys.
One of the best, really good geopolitical commentators, especially when it comes to Russia, Ukraine.
And then Friday, we got Ryan Dawson.
And then next week, we might have some other special stuff planned for y'all.
And then obviously, as you guys know, Nick Fuentes, July 7th.
And then, just because you guys grinded out for me for so long, the following Monday, I'm going to have Fuentes, Sneeko, Zerka.
You guys are going to see part two of that epic six-hour stream that was too hot for even Rumble.
God damn it.
All right.
So it was a six-hour stream where we went real deep into them boys.
All right.
But yeah, it's going to be wild.
Wild, wild, wild.
Nothing tonight, guys.
You guys obviously got fed it.
And then also, I want to get your guys' opinion on this.
Let's see if you guys want this.
I have Newmeck.
I don't know if you guys have seen it before.
The documentary done by Ryan Dawson on how them boys stole the nuclear bomb from the United States and were involved in Kennedy's death.
Okay.
It's a really good documentary.
Fantastic documentary.
Really well done.
Very factually based.
Declassified documents.
Sources all over the place.
Yeah.
I'm going to put it on Fed It, FedReacts, have y'all watch it, and then I'll probably react to it like a week or two later.
The reason why I watch out to watch it first before I react to it is because it's super fucking complex, guys.
Like, I ain't gonna cap.
Y'all are gonna have to rewind it at certain times.
You know what?
You know what?
I'm not leaving.
I'm not leaving.
I'm not fucking leaving.
The show goes up.
This is my home.
They're gonna need a fucking wrecking ball to take me out of here.
All right.
Let me show y'all.
So while we wait, because it looks like they got this little recess.
All right, I'm gonna hold on.
Let me share this with you guys.
You guys, give me ones in the chat if y'all want me to play the first part of Newmeck on here so you guys can get a sneak peek into what you're gonna get on Thursday if I drop this thing.
Give me ones in the chat if y'all want me to give y'all a sneak peek while we're on recess.
Let's fucking do it.
I'll give y'all a sneak preview.
This is a really good documentary, and I think it needs to get out there.
And I put time stamps in it, too.
All right, gentlemen, welcome to Newmeck.
This is a documentary done by my guy, Ryan Dawson.
Really smart dude.
I'm going to give y'all a teaser, and we're going to play the beginning part of it.
This intro is nuts, by the way.
Here we go, boys.
Bro, I need to play this Down the mungo
Yo, shit You triggered my trap card, aka facts.
You triggered my trap card!
Quick overview of the post-World War II surplus weapons trade and how intel agencies were supposed to be monitoring that.
The most vital and dangerous one being nuclear weapons, of course.
Both sides, the USSR and the USA, kind of looked the other way or even covertly assisted when arms went to factions they felt ideologically or beneficial to their global ambitions.
If Turkey is to have the assistance it needs, the United States must supply it.
We are there.
I don't know if y'all caught it, but in the beginning part, right, like they went through the entire, you know, formation and creation of, you know, the certain homeland that won't be named.
And then it goes into like a bunch of the different wars and intelligence operations that were conducted.
Only country able to provide that help.
From now on, it means that anti-communist America will make its influence felt in European affairs.
The U.S., however, had one.
And the reason why I'm not worried, guys, is because everything here is actually historically factual.
I went and fact-checked a bunch of this stuff.
This isn't like some conspiracy bullshit.
Y'all are going to see declassified documents and proof for everything in here.
One exception, and that is when it went against its own interest regarding Egypt and the vital Suez Canal because of Israeli pressure groups.
This led to the Suez Crisis or War of 56, which made Israel decide at any cost or risk that it had to have the bomb.
Obviously, John F. Kennedy, Ben-Gurion, first president of World War II, the deadliest war, culminated with the deadliest weapon, the atomic bomb.
Our B-29s dropped two atomic bombs, which hastened the surrender of Japan.
The bomb which wiped all right.
That's I think that's enough for the teaser for y'all, man.
What do y'all think?
Give me your feedback in the chat.
If y'all enjoyed that, give me some flame emotions.
Don't deMonco.
It gets way deeper than that, by the way.
Way deeper.
But that's a preview of the Newmeck documentary.
It's really fucking good, guys.
Really, really good.
That intro was really well put together, too.
I really enjoyed it.
But yeah.
Hopefully we don't get canceled.
But if we do, y'all niggas know where to find me, baby.
Y'all know where to find me.
You know, it is what it is.
Let me hold on here.
Where is the trial?
Let's see.
Oh, hold on, gentlemen.
Oh.
All right, she's on cross.
Fuck it.
It is what it is.
I'm not fucking leaving.
The show goes off.
This is my home.
They're gonna need a fucking wrecking ball to take me out of here.
His hair that was shown to you.
Did you cut his hair?
We shaved the hair around the wheels.
Okay, did you save the hair so that it could be tested to determine if there was any GSR gunshot residue on it?
We shaved the hair so we can see the characteristics of the wound.
And what did you do with the hair?
Did you bag it so that it could be sent to the lab to be examined to determine if there was any GSR or any projectile fragments on it?
I did not.
Detective Moretti was present, correct?
That's cracked.
You've been advised he's the lead detective in this case, correct?
He's the detective that called in the case that's cracked.
Okay.
And hey, real quick, if y'all want to watch that documentary now before I debut on FedReacts, this isn't about me getting views.
This is about Gannett Exposure for my boy Ryan.
Go on his rumble, okay?
You know what, man?
Let me hook this shit up for y'all.
Give me one second, man.
I'll play this and I'll show you guys.
You've indicated that the clothes are a rather important factor in determining the range of whoever fired the gun to cause the death.
If the entrance wounds are around where there is clothing, they are important to determine the range of fire.
That's correct.
Okay.
All right.
This is it right here, guys.
It's on his rumble.
I'll drop the link in the chat if y'all want to watch this after.
Go check out my guy, Ryan Dawson, on Rumble.
And here it is, man.
I'll drop the link in here in the chat.
His work is really good, and it's really a shame that he got canceled.
And you got a bunch of people stealing his content, stealing his hard work research, and not giving him credit.
So I'll go ahead and drop this in the chat for y'all.
We've got to support the homies.
That one of the wounds was in the chest area.
Correct.
Were you advised at any time that this person was wearing clothes?
Yes.
Okay.
And Moretti didn't bring the clothes to you to look at.
So my job is cause a manner, a death of the body.
And the reason I ask that is because the height of the person, the weight of the person, the fact that he had six inches of braided hair, and the clothes that he was wearing would assist if anyone attempted to do what is known as a projectory reconstruction, correct?
But you could do a modified gray stain on the clothing to look for gunshot residue.
Okay.
And those items would be important, would it not, if someone wanted to attempt to reconstruct how the shooting occurred?
So my job is cause and manner of death.
I'm no expert in reconstruction.
Fair enough.
Now, you indicated that these injuries, the first injury to the head, was it?
Back to the head was the fatal injury.
So in this case, that's the fatal injury because the other two, he was dead when they were inflicted.
So This person, when he received the other two injuries, was already deceased.
Correct.
Did not suffer any pain from those two injuries.
He's already dead.
Fair enough.
And you indicated that these injuries were indeterminate.
Correct.
Which means, in layman terms, simple terms for me to understand, means that you cannot tell how far away or how close the shooter or shooters were when this occurred.
Yes, sir.
In fact, you don't know if it was one shooter, two shooters, or more, correct?
That's correct.
Okay.
All right, so he's doing a good job here to create some doubt.
You know, you don't know how far it was.
You don't know one or two shooters.
I'm sorry.
Now, I think you told me when I met you back in April 2022, the day I took your deposition on.
Yes, sir.
That the scientific way to determine the distance would be, and I think you said it today, take the same gun, correct?
Correct.
Take the same ammunition, correct?
Correct.
And then fire that gun with the same ammunition into a white paper or poster or whatever, wrapping paper, until you could get the same type of stickling pattern that you observed on the body, correct?
If you had an intermediate gunshot wound, yes, sir.
Okay.
Do you know if that was done in this case?
All three of my gunshot wounds are indeterminate.
Okay.
Determined, which means you can't tell the number of shooters or the distance.
Indeterminate means I don't know the range of fire from looking at the gunshot on the body of the victim.
Now, this was a rather unusual case because out of all of the examinations you have done over the years, since you've been a medical examiner and a chief medical examiner, you usually can't tell what shot or what injury occurred first, second, and third.
Correct.
In this case, you could on both the individual you did the autopsy of and the individual that your fellow medical examiner did, correct?
I can tell you the first shot.
I don't know the order of the second and third.
Okay.
And the first shot on both of them were the fatal shots.
Because they are already deceased when the other ones are inflicted.
Okay.
Now, you signed off as the chief medical examiner or the supervisor of Dr. Saunders when she finished her report, correct?
I signed off on her report as the associate medical examiner that was overlooking her that day in the morning.
Yes.
Okay.
I assume before you signed off, you looked at the report.
Correct.
Reviewed the report.
Correct.
And by signing off, you were basically saying it was correct.
So I reviewed not only the report, I reviewed all the pictures that we took together.
Okay.
So you review everything.
Okay.
And you said it was correct.
And you signed off as.
So what he's trying to do right now, guys, is he's trying to like attack the chain of command with how she signed paperwork and shit.
This is what the defense does.
They're trying to attack.
To be honest, he's not really attacking the facts.
Now he's attacking like Protocol BS.
Really, her supervisor.
That's correct.
Okay.
Now, that was in 18, correct?
Go ahead and look.
It might be 18, it might be 19 because it was the end of all.
So funny story for y'all, the video is full green and monetized.
As soon as I played that fucking video for y'all about them boys and that certain land, It's the yellow check.
Ah, Lord.
They don't want y'all to know the truth, god damn it.
They just don't.
Oh, well, it is what it is.
We got to do it for the people.
So you can tell me.
Okay.
It was either the end of 18 or the beginning of 19, to the best of your recollection.
Correct.
I signed mine out on November 27th.
I don't know if you don't recall the date when I heard it before.
Three over three years later, you indicated you were asked to review the autopsy report of Dr. Saunders, correct?
I was asked to review photographs that were taken at the hospital of the deceased.
Okay.
And the person, and that was about three, three and a half years later, correct?
Transit February of 22, February or March.
Okay, and if your autopsy was in 18 and Saunders' report was sometime in 19, that would be part of 19, 20, 21, and 22.
That's correct.
The way I have.
That's approximately three years later.
That's correct.
And you realize that there's a mistake that not only Dr. Saunders made, but obviously, without due respect, you made.
So there is an ex-clung shot wound on the inner thigh that I don't have any picture of at the autopsy that is photographed at the hospital.
Okay.
And if I could read what the don't read, just tell us.
It won't be verbatim, man.
At the end of every autopsy report that we author, there is a statement that I haven't memorized, but it goes something like this.
If any probative, something, something information becomes available, we have the right to amend the report before.
And that's exactly what I did.
Okay.
Okay, so he wants to challenge her on some type of amendment that was made to the report.
Let's see where it's going with this.
And in fact, an amended report was made, correct?
That's correct.
And the person who asked you to review that three over approximately three years later was not the police department, but the state attorney's office.
Isn't that correct?
That's correct.
Now, you can see here he's raising his voice and almost yelling at her, guys, to try to get a reaction out of her.
And before you corrected that report, did you make any attempt to exhume the body to verify that injury?
Either photograph of it has to exhume the body.
So the answer would be no.
That's correct.
Okay.
Can I have one moment?
My boss is saying no further questions.
Council is going to redirect it.
Yeah, briefly.
That was his cross, bruh.
Hell defense's strongest thing was saying that she amended a report.
Senator McCugle, do you recall personal does not refute the fact that the deadly gunshot wounds pretty much are there.
Defects are on the body of Christopher Thomas.
And that there were gunshots wounds after they were already dead, which aligns with the theory that these guys shot into the vehicle after the fact.
There are 21 copy documents that I think and one that we missed.
Are you telling me everyone's very fit?
You can make a mistake that you're human.
I'm human.
She's human.
So, are there processes in place where you can review and go back and catch those mistakes?
There are, is that what happened in this case?
That's what happened.
In terms of consuming our eyes, so the defense is doing a good prosecution doing a good job here of rehabilitating the witness, which we had seen earlier with the undercover sheriff's deputy.
Three years later, would there be any benefit to that?
I have a photo document of the injury.
I would never put a family through that.
Nothing further, Connor.
This wooden six.
Yes, sir.
All right, sir.
Thank you very much.
You're going to slip down your week.
Thank you.
All right, bam.
medical examiner done.
Just take a short recess.
Don't discuss the case.
Don't form any opinion about the case.
Don't allow anyone to discuss the case any further.
All right.
So they're going to take a recess again.
I think we're going to end it here, guys.
All right.
We grinded it out, man.
We sat through five plus hours of testimony from two big witnesses, man.
Guys, like the video for my eyes so I can go to sleep.
And like the video for me playing a video on them boys and instantly getting a yellow check.
We went from full green to yellow as soon as they see that star.
They was like, nah, bro.
No.
Nah.
So it is what it is.
I love y'all.
I'll catch you guys tomorrow at 7 p.m. with the lawyers.
Gonna talk about paternity, guys.
Don't get fucking cucked out here, man.
All right.
I will catch you.
Yeah, 7 p.m. for that one.
And then we're going to have McQueen probably on for the nighttime.
And go check out Ryan Dawson's documentary if you guys want to watch it right now.
I'll probably debut on this channel this week or next, but I want to give y'all a little bit of a preview.
If you guys want to wait till I debut, cool.
If not, go check out Ryan Dawson on Rumble and watch it right now.
Fantastic documentary.
Really complex.
You're going to have to rewind out of certain parts.
My version is going to have time stamps for y'all.
So if you want to wait for that, it's up to you.
But yeah, man.
I might even make it a members-only one, to be honest with y'all, just because I'm just like, you know, you don't want just like any person watching that shit.
I'm going to report you.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's like, bro, the video went through like review, no problem.
But, you know, you get haters that mass report your video.
We already know what the Anus and Leech fans do.
They report shit.
So I might actually have to make that video members only as much as I fucking hate doing that shit.
But just to kind of like weed out like haters, bro, because so many people hate watch us.
It's crazy how many people hate watch Fresh and Fit, man.
It's wild.
A lot of Anus and Reach fans watch us just to like dislike videos and talk shit, leave stupid comments, which is very weird because we don't go watch their bullshit content and leave comments.
Like, what the fuck?
But anyway, love y'all.
Catch you guys.
