  Speaker 1: Devil breakfast club.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: Yes, Donkey today from Monday, August fourteenth, goes to Judge
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Jeffrey Ferguson. I know it's Monday. I know we need
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: to ease into the heaviness on the Monday. But there's
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: no way to ease into this one. See, Jeffrey is
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: accused of killing his wife during a drunken rage. Now,
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: Jeffrey is a man who investigators discovered owned forty seven weapons,
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: including the pistol used in the shooting, and more than
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: twenty six thousand rounds of ammunition inside his home. Can't
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: expect a person like that who owns that many weapons
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: to have any conflict resolution skills that don't involve gun play.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Now, let me tell you Jeffrey is actually free.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: He was free to day later a day later after
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: being taken in the custody and posted a one million
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: dollar bill.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: No need to play a game. I guess what race
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: it is with this one? Okay?
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: In fact, for executers are seeking new bail conditions after
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: arguing that all the weapons he had indicate that he
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: could pose and risk the public safety as well as
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: well as be a flight risk. They want him to
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: surrender his passports, where an ankle monitor, and possess no
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: alcohol or firearms ahead of this September first arrangement, Big sue,
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: You tell me what race you think he is.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Ah, I'm gonna go with Caucasian. Absolutely Caucasian. Okay.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: If he was black or brown, prosecutor wouldn't be seeking anything.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: They would have already done it all all right, weapons,
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: confiscated passports, sees, probably no bail. But not only is
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: he a white male, like I said, he's a judge
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: since twenty fifteen.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: So it's a lot of different privileges that play here.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: But that's not what we hear for today, ladies and
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: gettlement of Hee Haw Missionary Baptists. We are here because Jeffrey,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: in spite of two alleged a missions, his defense attorneys
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: maintained and his wife's death was the result of an
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: accident and nothing more an accident. You say, well, this
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: is remember I said, Jeffrey Ferguson had two admission of guilt.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Remember that.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Okay, he had two emissions of guilt in this crime,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: and one of them is the reason he's getting Donkey
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: of the day. Let's go to eighty seven seven. What
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: the hell did I just say? Let's go to ABC
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: seven news for the report Police.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Today an Orange County judd. Seventy two year old Jeffrey
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Ferguson faces one count of murder for shooting and killing
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: his wife, Cheryl, on August third. It started with a
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: verbal argument at dinner with their adult son. According to
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: the charging documents, that Ferguson was drunk and during a
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: fight at the restaurant, made a gun gesture with his hand.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Soon after, at home, his wife referenced that gesture, and
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: the documents say moments prior to the shooting, she said
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: something to the effect of why don't you point a
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: real gun at me, and that he retrieved his pistol
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: from his ankle holster and shot her. Their son called
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: nine to one one. Then, the document say, Ferguson texted
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: his court clerk and bailiff to say, quote, I just
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: lost it. I just shot my wife. I won't be
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: in tomorrow. I will be in custody. I'm so sorry.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: End quote. Anaheim police arrested him, and investigators recovered forty
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: seven weapons from the Anaheim Hills home, including rifles, shotguns,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: and handguns, plus more than twenty six thousand rounds of ammunition,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: but prosecutors worry one rifle is still Ferguson was booked
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: on a one million dollar bail, which he posted the
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: next day.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: I just shot my wife. I won't be in tomorrow
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: when I hear stories like this. The only thing I
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: want to know is what was he drinking? So I
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: don't ever drink it. Okay, I'm just not this kind
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: of drunk. At no point in my life have ever
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: been you know that drunk. I'm not an angry drunk.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: I don't get drunk and want violence in any way,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: shape or form. I'm not a belligerent drunk that gets
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: toasty and just says anything. I'm not a drunk that
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: gets wasted and forgets what happened. I'm the type of
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: drunk that gets happy, okay, wants to hug and love
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: on everybody. Start telling you how much I love and
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: care about you. I'm not ever gonna get to the
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: point where I'm so drunk I get so mad that
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna pull out a gun and shoot.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: You, even if you ask me to. Now, that's the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: other part of this story. We don't want to discuss,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: but we have to. Ladies.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: I'm telling y'all, wat should you say to these men
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: out here? Okay, y'all claim we don't listen, but then
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: y'all run into a man that is unstable and listens too.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Okay, when y'all say things like, boy, I wish you
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: would put your hands on me, some men will hear you,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: hear you, and you know, grant you your wishes, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: that's a lesson. His wife found out quick when she said,
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: why don't you point a real gun at me? What
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: a strange request and what a strange time for this
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: man to decide he was going.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: To listen to his wife.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Okay, why would you ever say something like that to
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: a man that was caught with forty seven weapons and
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: twenty six thou rounds of ammunition inside his home? What
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: did you think that was for the play call of duty?
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: That is a man that wants all the smoke and
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: is ready for war, whether it's with you or Russia. Okay,
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: when you got that many weapons, you can't wait to
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: use them. But I could never imagine being so drunk
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: and so angry at your wife that you shoot her.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Dad over a meal like you reenacting the Dnner scene
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: in Belly. Not to mention, the judge said, I just
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: lost it. I just shot my wife. I won't be
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: in tomorrow. I will be in custody. I'm so sorry.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: What trips me out about this is he said I
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: won't be in tomorrow. Not once did he feel like
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: his job was his job was at risk. I would
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: think that shooting your wife, dad is a letter of resignation,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: but not in Judge Jeffrey's world.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: And Judge Jeffrey's world, he just won't be in tomorrow.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: He should be good for the day after, But tomorrow
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: after just killing his wife.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Nah, too soon? Okay?
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Oh to be white and privileged in America, that's the
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: real wop. Okay, white and privileged. I kill your wife.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: It's only an accident, an accident that you only have
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: to miss one day or work for and have it
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: called by the media a shocking arrest that has left
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: officials grappling with how to handle the case. That's how
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: they's spinning it. Look, here's the thing. When a person
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: commits a crime like this day, are no longer the
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: person you knew. I don't care how celebrated Judge Jeffrey
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Ferguson was I don't care about the awards he won.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: He killed his wife in a drunken rage. Handle him accordingly,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: and for him to say it was an accident, even
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: though he admitted he did it twice. Let you know
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: he lacks remorse and accountability for his actions.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: As a judge. He would probably throw the book at someone.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Who was handling a case like this, you know, if
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: he was handling a case like this the way he was.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: So whatever judge you was on this case needs to
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: do the same. Please let reman Ma give Judge Jeffrey
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Ferguson the biggest he huh.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: He ha he ha, you stupid motherfuck? Are you dumb?
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you something else though. Sometimes you get what
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: you asked for when you get it cause you asked
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: for it, you know.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Good point. That's that's that's that's this is.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: A horrible situation all the way around. Now coming up,
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: we have the Fearless Fund coming in. What's their name
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: is Aleana Parson and Arian Simon and they are the
• 6:12
