- 0:11Speaker 1: one two. Do you remember the old old question, if
- 0:19Speaker 1: a tree falls in the forest and nobody's around, does
- 0:24Speaker 1: it make a noise? Well, of course we know that
- 0:27Speaker 1: it does. But that was the theoretical question that you'd
- 0:31Speaker 1: be asked in college when you're in your first philosophy class,
- 0:36Speaker 1: which you're forced to take, by the way. But now
- 0:39Speaker 1: the new question is, if you don't start in your
- 0:44Speaker 1: own Facebook video or it doesn't happen on Facebook, did
- 0:48Speaker 1: it really ever happen at all? I'm talking about murder,
- 0:54Speaker 1: murder live streamed on Facebook, not to us once, but
- 1:01Speaker 1: over and over and over again. Why the phenomena of
- 1:05Speaker 1: murder live streamed? I'm Nancy Grace, this is Crime Stories.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. The chicken or the egg?
- 1:14Speaker 1: Oh dear. Another philosophical question. Do people murder on live
- 1:20Speaker 1: streaming to become famous? Or do they become famous or
- 1:24Speaker 1: infamous because they live streamed to murder? That that's that's
- 1:28Speaker 1: the big question. But I'm gonna let the shrinks figure
- 1:32Speaker 1: all that out while I figure out who's going to
- 1:36Speaker 1: jail and why? Joining me right now, Dr Chloe Carmichael,
- 1:41Speaker 1: creator of ask dr cc dot com That's asked d
- 1:46Speaker 1: r c C dot com awesome, awesome site. Dr Chloe
- 1:50Speaker 1: with me forensics expert Joseph Scott Morgan, Professor of Forensics
- 1:54Speaker 1: at Jacksonville State University, and Crime Stories investigative reporter John Limley.
- 2:00Speaker 1: And we're gonna kick it all off with a case
- 2:03Speaker 1: that that just stunned me. The case of an evil,
- 2:08Speaker 1: evil Cleveland gunman who randomly shoots dead an elderly man
- 2:16Speaker 1: in the street, just drives by and sheets a guy,
- 2:21Speaker 1: dad who's shuffling along minding his own business. This guy
- 2:28Speaker 1: has a family, he had grandchildren that called him Papa.
- 2:33Speaker 1: There's pictures of him. We've managed to dig up his
- 2:36Speaker 1: seventy four year old Robert Godwin, and his grandchildren absolutely
- 2:41Speaker 1: loved him. He had a favorite easy chair. It reminds
- 2:45Speaker 1: me a little bit of the ugly chair in Frasier
- 2:47Speaker 1: that the dad said and all the time. But it
- 2:49Speaker 1: also reminds me of my father. He had a favorite
- 2:51Speaker 1: chair that he would sit in. And this Mr Godwin
- 2:56Speaker 1: is reminding me of my dad so much. And Mr
- 2:59Speaker 1: god And it's just gunned down dead randomly. And to
- 3:04Speaker 1: add insult to injury. The killer live Street posted the
- 3:11Speaker 1: video on Facebook. To John Limley, Crime Stories investigative reporter,
- 3:17Speaker 1: I don't understand why this Cleveland shooter, who seemed to
- 3:22Speaker 1: be a normal guy, Steve Stevens, would gun down a
- 3:27Speaker 1: guy on Facebook video and claim he's killed fifty more.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Let's start at the beginning, John Limley, what happened, Nancy?
- 3:35Speaker 1: This was a really nice day, warm and sonny. So,
- 3:39Speaker 1: as you mentioned Robert Godwin, uh, he was out for
- 3:42Speaker 1: a stroll in the Glenville neighborhood of Cleveland. Uh. As
- 3:46Speaker 1: we've heard, he was a gentleman, graying hair. That day,
- 3:50Speaker 1: he was wearing a blue plaid shirt. He was carrying
- 3:53Speaker 1: a white plastic bag that he had filled with cans
- 3:56Speaker 1: that he had picked up along the way. It's something
- 3:59Speaker 1: that he did all most every day since he had
- 4:01Speaker 1: retired as a foundry worker. He loved to go along
- 4:04Speaker 1: pick things up, maybe even a bicycle or a small appliance,
- 4:07Speaker 1: and he'd take them home and repair them. And this
- 4:10Speaker 1: had given him an affectionate nickname in the neighborhood, the
- 4:14Speaker 1: junk Man. Okay, now wait a minute, wait a minute.
- 4:16Speaker 1: This guy had a long career in the foundry business
- 4:20Speaker 1: to support his family, his children and even his grandchildren. Then,
- 4:25Speaker 1: after many many years toiling, just like my dad did
- 4:29Speaker 1: on the railroad, he retires. Now my dad took up
- 4:34Speaker 1: He suddenly became a Sunday school teacher, to the shock
- 4:37Speaker 1: of all of us, because my dad, as you know,
- 4:39Speaker 1: was not afraid of a cocktail. He took becoming a
- 4:42Speaker 1: Sunday school teacher and exercising and all things heart healthy.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Those were his obsessions, okay, along with sports, watching sports,
- 4:52Speaker 1: So that that who was all into all of that.
- 4:55Speaker 1: This guy, Mr Godwin decided to go along and start
- 4:59Speaker 1: recycling everything he could get his mits on and pick
- 5:02Speaker 1: up this and that and you know, refurbish it, make
- 5:05Speaker 1: it new again. And he would be walking up and
- 5:08Speaker 1: down the street in his neighborhood finding whatever he could,
- 5:12Speaker 1: this little low guy with the glasses and the big smile,
- 5:16Speaker 1: Mr Godwin. Okay, so he's out, Mr Godwin is out
- 5:20Speaker 1: collecting little bikes and this and that pieces of tidbits.
- 5:23Speaker 1: And what happens, John Limley, This is around two pm
- 5:27Speaker 1: that afternoon, Robert Godwin walking along the sidewalk on East
- 5:31Speaker 1: ninety three Street in Cleveland, when a man stops his car,
- 5:36Speaker 1: gets out and walks over to Robert. The man had
- 5:40Speaker 1: his phone out shooting video of Robert and asked him
- 5:45Speaker 1: to say the name of a woman, Joy Lane. The
- 5:49Speaker 1: man said, she's the reason why this is about to
- 5:53Speaker 1: happen to you. Robert immediately tells the man he doesn't
- 5:56Speaker 1: know who he's talking about, has no idea what he's
- 5:59Speaker 1: talking about. But the next thing Robert knows, the man
- 6:03Speaker 1: pulls out a gun, shoots him, and a split second
- 6:06Speaker 1: later Robert falls to the ground dead. John, Wait a minute,
- 6:10Speaker 1: I have got to quit thinking about my dad and
- 6:13Speaker 1: this happening to my dad because he would walk up
- 6:17Speaker 1: all around the neighborhood almost every day as part of
- 6:22Speaker 1: his exercise regimen. And I can just imagine this jackass
- 6:28Speaker 1: coming up to my father and saying, say the name
- 6:31Speaker 1: joy Lane. My dad would say what what? Because the
- 6:35Speaker 1: way he would do is exercises, He counted steps, and
- 6:39Speaker 1: he had been doing this for years and years before
- 6:41Speaker 1: he went to heaven. And I can just see somebody
- 6:45Speaker 1: pulling up to Mr Godwin and saying getting out in video,
- 6:50Speaker 1: I mean he would be on what. I don't know her,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. As a matter
- 6:55Speaker 1: of fact, this guy may he wrought in hell. Steve
- 7:01Speaker 1: Stevens has this on video. Listen to what he says,
- 7:09Speaker 1: found somebody like a kill kill this guy right here?
- 7:12Speaker 1: The old Hi, can you get your favor? Can you
- 7:25Speaker 1: say Joey Lane? Can you say Joey Lane Lane? Yeah,
- 7:30Speaker 1: she's the reason why this is about to happened to you.
- 7:33Speaker 1: How old are you? Look? I don't know, I don't
- 7:38Speaker 1: know nobody here because of dy You know, Alan, do
- 7:49Speaker 1: you just heard John Linley reporting about this seriously monster
- 7:55Speaker 1: coming up to this elderly guy and demand he say
- 8:00Speaker 1: the name Joy Lane. Who's the shooters ex girlfriend? I'm
- 8:04Speaker 1: sure I think I know why she's an ex, But
- 8:07Speaker 1: that wasn't it, Alan Duke. Then this freak gets in
- 8:11Speaker 1: his car and starts videoing again. What does he do
- 8:15Speaker 1: in the car? Yes, it was just a few moments
- 8:17Speaker 1: after he shot this man. He gets in the car,
- 8:20Speaker 1: goes again on Facebook and explains to his Facebook friends
- 8:24Speaker 1: that I guess I just snapped, and then he calls
- 8:27Speaker 1: himself a monster in this rambling snap just snapped. He
- 8:32Speaker 1: planned this. He didn't just snapped. He sought out a victim,
- 8:36Speaker 1: a defenseless elderly gentleman on the side of the street
- 8:39Speaker 1: mining his own business walks up to him and says,
- 8:42Speaker 1: this is why she's why this is going to happen
- 8:46Speaker 1: to you. This is not a snap. This is a plan.
- 8:50Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, Alan Duke has managed to

- 13:56Speaker 1: A case that that just stunned me the k of
- 14:00Speaker 1: an evil gunman who randomly shoots dead an elderly man
- 14:07Speaker 1: in the street to Joseph Scott Morgan joining me forensics
- 14:12Speaker 1: expert Joe Scott, I always if I could would play
- 14:16Speaker 1: the nine one one call for my jury to take
- 14:20Speaker 1: them to the moment of the incident. Or as close
- 14:23Speaker 1: as I could get to it. What can we typically
- 14:27Speaker 1: learn from a nine one one called Joe Scott? Many
- 14:29Speaker 1: times you can you can get a sense of of
- 14:32Speaker 1: how horrific a particular circumstances because it paints a picture
- 14:38Speaker 1: that takes the jury, who is in just this isolated
- 14:42Speaker 1: room with a lot of people, and takes them back
- 14:45Speaker 1: to that moment of absolute and total horror. And I
- 14:49Speaker 1: think that most of the people that get pulled into
- 14:52Speaker 1: a court as as a member of a jury pool,
- 14:54Speaker 1: they they don't they can't associate with this kind of thing.
- 14:57Speaker 1: That horror would actually visit you in this moment that
- 15:00Speaker 1: you know, like like this older gentleman here that's just
- 15:03Speaker 1: mine in his own business. And the this this drives
- 15:08Speaker 1: at home even more because here you actually hear the
- 15:10Speaker 1: voice of the perpetrator. It's not just some abstract person
- 15:15Speaker 1: going down the road saying I just saw somebody that
- 15:17Speaker 1: had been shot in this. In this live streaming event,
- 15:20Speaker 1: you've got someone that's actually they're talking about what he's

- 19:56Speaker 1: nine one one call about the shooting death of seventy
- 19:59Speaker 1: four year old Robert Godwin. I'm looking at a photo
- 20:02Speaker 1: of him right now and a grown lady. I can't
- 20:06Speaker 1: really make her out, but she's much younger than him,
- 20:09Speaker 1: has her arm around him. I bet it's with his daughter.
- 20:13Speaker 1: Bet you anything. Oh, I give everything of God right
- 20:17Speaker 1: now if I could just hug my dad one more time.
- 20:20Speaker 1: I'm telling you, but this guy, Steve Stevens, this evil
- 20:25Speaker 1: Cleveland shooter, took that opportunity away from Mr Godwin's children
- 20:31Speaker 1: and grandchildren. And this to Dr Chloe Carmichael, renowned New
- 20:35Speaker 1: York psychologist and creator of ask dr c c dot
- 20:41Speaker 1: com for Dr Chloe Carmichael, you know he claims a
- 20:45Speaker 1: shooter claims on Facebook that he's killed fifteen people. Now,
- 20:50Speaker 1: if that's true, you're a monster, And if it's not true,
- 20:54Speaker 1: you're still a monster. We also learned Dr Chloe that
- 20:58Speaker 1: he worked as a mental health manager and would post
- 21:03Speaker 1: excessively on social media, and on social media he blamed
- 21:09Speaker 1: the murderer on a woman to believe we think was
- 21:12Speaker 1: his ex girlfriend Joy. It's it's really insane either way,
- 21:16Speaker 1: as you're saying, whether he actually did kill fifteen people
- 21:20Speaker 1: or whether he just wants to say that. Um, when
- 21:23Speaker 1: someone's face rejection like this person has, it sounds like
- 21:27Speaker 1: his girlfriend had broken up with him or something like that,
- 21:30Speaker 1: they tend to feel very, very powerless, And it's it's
- 21:33Speaker 1: actually natural that when we experience rejection, many people actually
- 21:38Speaker 1: do become a little bit vindictive or be in a
- 21:40Speaker 1: bad mood. But obviously this person has taken it up
- 21:43Speaker 1: to a huge extreme. And it also appears that he
- 21:46Speaker 1: might be trying to make her feel the pain that
- 21:51Speaker 1: he has felt by somehow trying to suggest that this
- 21:54Speaker 1: is her fault. So in a sense, he felt annihilated
- 21:58Speaker 1: and murdered in an away by her breaking up with him.
- 22:02Speaker 1: It's like she destroyed him, and now it seems like
- 22:05Speaker 1: maybe this is his really sick way of trying to
- 22:08Speaker 1: show her what that feels like. That's Dr Chloe Carmichael,
- 22:12Speaker 1: New York psychologists joining us back to Joseph Scott, Morgan
- 22:16Speaker 1: forensics expert. Take a look at the timeline Joe Scott
- 22:19Speaker 1: at eleven o nine, he first threatens to murder eleven eleven.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Two minutes later, the video of the live shooting is
- 22:29Speaker 1: uploaded in just two minutes even two a live confession.
- 22:38Speaker 1: The end of the live video all done, Nancy, And
- 22:41Speaker 1: you know this guy's life these seventy plus years, is
- 22:46Speaker 1: this guy lived on this earth. Are just completely gone
- 22:49Speaker 1: and and vanished in a second. And it didn't take much,
- 22:53Speaker 1: did it, except for uh, for this monster with firearm
- 22:58Speaker 1: to go in random He picked this guy out and
- 23:02Speaker 1: kill him for whatever his motivations. And at this point
- 23:04Speaker 1: in tom uh, you know, as as a you know,
- 23:07Speaker 1: as as an average guy, I don't I don't care
- 23:10Speaker 1: what his motivations were. I care about this this victims
- 23:13Speaker 1: family though, and how how horrible is this um? You know,
- 23:18Speaker 1: teaching at college with investigations like I do at Jacksonville State,
- 23:23Speaker 1: one of the things that we talked about with homicide
- 23:25Speaker 1: is that the launch here of homicides are not like
- 23:28Speaker 1: you see on television where it's some kind of randomized stranger.
- 23:32Speaker 1: It's going to be an intimate and we've talked about
- 23:33Speaker 1: this a lot. That's what makes this all the more horrific,
- 23:37Speaker 1: doesn't it needs that. You just got this guy that
- 23:40Speaker 1: just appears out of nowhere in this elderly man's life
- 23:44Speaker 1: and just snuffs it out in a second, and it's
- 23:46Speaker 1: all there for everybody to see. You know, it's really
- 23:50Speaker 1: interesting if you look at him online Dr Chloe Carmichael,
- 23:53Speaker 1: which is what he wants us all to do. Anyway.
- 23:56Speaker 1: You see shots titled joy Lane and Me in New
- 24:00Speaker 1: Orleans and he's got on Marty Graw beads and there
- 24:04Speaker 1: obviously at some fancy restaurant with like a jungle in
- 24:08Speaker 1: the background and strings of lights. Looks really fun. They're smiling,
- 24:15Speaker 1: and then you see another picture of him smiling, and
- 24:19Speaker 1: then suddenly it goes to him with um um hat
- 24:25Speaker 1: pulled down way down and dark clothing and he's looking
- 24:32Speaker 1: really angry and menacing towards the camera, really solemn face.
- 24:38Speaker 1: That was one of the police issued photos. Then he
- 24:43Speaker 1: goes on the run. He's tracked through his phone. Dr
- 24:47Speaker 1: Chloe Carmichael. He's living his life out online, Yes he is.
- 24:53Speaker 1: And again when somebody has rejected uh, sometimes they can
- 24:57Speaker 1: actually feel as if as if they're they're going to disappear.
- 25:01Speaker 1: We call it annihilation anxiety in psychology. And I think
- 25:05Speaker 1: it's possible that part of his his reason for wanting
- 25:09Speaker 1: to do all of this online um is to to
- 25:13Speaker 1: try to make his presence known and make his presence felt. Um.
- 25:17Speaker 1: He's he's clearly seeking attention. So when somebody breaks up
- 25:22Speaker 1: with you, they're withdrawing their attention, and so it's almost
- 25:25Speaker 1: as if he's trying to undo that by getting the
- 25:28Speaker 1: eyes of the world upon him as he lives out.
- 25:31Speaker 1: You know this nightmare you know just got Morgan. You
- 25:35Speaker 1: have a young team at home, Mine aren't. Tan. We
- 25:39Speaker 1: just went to an evening movie that our church put
- 25:43Speaker 1: on called screen Agers, about the effect that online video
- 25:48Speaker 1: games um social media, how it affects girls versus boys,
- 25:56Speaker 1: and what effect it does have on them. It was
- 25:59Speaker 1: incre edible. It was a documentary but also very entertaining.
- 26:04Speaker 1: But I'm thinking about how even in those seemingly more
- 26:09Speaker 1: innocent contexts, it takes over their lives. They're addicted to it.
- 26:17Speaker 1: You know, I'm really watching my son right now, because
- 26:19Speaker 1: when I say Okay, time's up for whatever he's playing.
- 26:22Speaker 1: He gets actually angry. He's just ten. He's never heard
- 26:26Speaker 1: of flee. Uh. And he doesn't want me to tell
- 26:29Speaker 1: he doesn't want to turn it off. He gets upset.
- 26:32Speaker 1: It's just like they said in that documentary screen Agers
- 26:36Speaker 1: and the Girls. My daughter does. Neither one of them
- 26:39Speaker 1: have an iPhone or in anything like that. But in
- 26:44Speaker 1: the movie The Young Girls, it's all about what they
- 26:47Speaker 1: look like. And they're they're nine and ten and they're
- 26:53Speaker 1: posting I guess you'd say, what they believed to be
- 26:56Speaker 1: sexy pictures of themselves. They are nine, there's nothing sexy,
- 27:01Speaker 1: but it kind of They're they're living through this little screen.
- 27:07Speaker 1: And for years I've laughed at people like, we'll walk
- 27:09Speaker 1: by and there'll be four people sitting together and they're
- 27:12Speaker 1: all just glued to their iPhone. It is so funny
- 27:15Speaker 1: to me, But it's real, just just scot Yeah, it
- 27:20Speaker 1: is real. And if I could just give you a
- 27:23Speaker 1: quick analogy, uh, and the struggle is really really with
- 27:26Speaker 1: a teenager. Um. When I first started teaching college, you know,
- 27:31Speaker 1: in excess of a decade ago, and you probably remember this, Nancy,
- 27:34Speaker 1: remember how at the end of class. Most classes let
- 27:36Speaker 1: out at the same time. You'd walk out in the
- 27:38Speaker 1: hallway and you'd hear this this audible buzz amongst students
- 27:43Speaker 1: that were talking. You could hear things scratching around, you know.
- 27:46Speaker 1: And now a decade later, when you walk into the
- 27:50Speaker 1: hallway at a university, it's almost like you've walked into
- 27:54Speaker 1: a Trappist monastery. It is dead quiet, is dead quiet.
- 27:59Speaker 1: You don't hear people talking, you don't hear people interacting
- 28:02Speaker 1: other than with this electronic device. And it's it's a
- 28:06Speaker 1: it's a generational paragamic shift, as they say in academia.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Everything has changed. Um. When I first started teaching the students,
- 28:16Speaker 1: they would I would put these images on the screen
- 28:19Speaker 1: about all these horrible cases that that I had worked
- 28:23Speaker 1: over the years to illustrate my points relative to forensics,
- 28:27Speaker 1: and there were audible gas in class. You know, those
- 28:30Speaker 1: are completely vanished now, Nancy, Uh, this generation that that
- 28:34Speaker 1: that I deal with, it's almost this and Dr Chloe
- 28:36Speaker 1: can speak more to this, but it's this the sensitization
- 28:39Speaker 1: that's taken place for me and I work in probably
- 28:43Speaker 1: with some must graphic gory things that you can possibly imagine.
- 28:47Speaker 1: And now it's the world has changed so much, um
- 28:52Speaker 1: and I really this That's why this particular case particularly
- 28:57Speaker 1: frightens me because it is it's just a total dismission
- 29:03Speaker 1: or dismissive of of of human life. It just it's
- 29:06Speaker 1: reduced it down to this such horror. I know that
- 29:09Speaker 1: a lot of times people don't identify with an elderly
- 29:12Speaker 1: victim as much as they would like a younger victim psay,
- 29:17Speaker 1: college age or somebody. Most listeners or viewers can relate
- 29:21Speaker 1: to their age. But I really identify with this elderly
- 29:26Speaker 1: victim because he reminds me so much of my dad,
- 29:31Speaker 1: and I'm projecting my dad's reaction onto him. And you know,
- 29:36Speaker 1: Joe Scott, it's one thing to lose a loved one.
- 29:39Speaker 1: It's another thing to lose somebody you love to violence,
- 29:43Speaker 1: which is always senseless. And I know that firsthand from
- 29:47Speaker 1: losing my fiance to murder, then later my dad to illness.
- 29:54Speaker 1: And what this family is going through to me is
- 29:58Speaker 1: a brutal I under also about Dr Chloe Carmichael uh,
- 30:03Speaker 1: creator of ask dr cc dot com. Dr Chloe. Why
- 30:08Speaker 1: does he a want to live it out online but
- 30:11Speaker 1: be want to blame his ex Joy, Why is it
- 30:15Speaker 1: her fault that he is committing murder and maybe fifteen others? Well, Nancy,
- 30:19Speaker 1: obviously it's not her fault, of course, but in his mind,
- 30:23Speaker 1: his really demented, sick mind, it is her fault because
- 30:27Speaker 1: she's the person who hurt him, and so therefore he
- 30:31Speaker 1: needs to show her how badly he's hurting, and that's
- 30:35Speaker 1: why he appears that that's why he's doing this according
- 30:38Speaker 1: to himself. So, um, it is true that we have
- 30:41Speaker 1: this deep personalization of human life that happens us often
- 30:46Speaker 1: more and more these days as people are on social media.
- 30:48Speaker 1: So it used to be, for example, an expression, oh
- 30:51Speaker 1: I feel like I'm dying. Oh I I feel like
- 30:54Speaker 1: I could just you know, ring somebody's neck. Today, well
- 30:57Speaker 1: now people are actually ariancing doing that online and there's
- 31:03Speaker 1: a deep personalization of human life. Um, And it really
- 31:08Speaker 1: does happen more and more because we see things on screen,
- 31:11Speaker 1: we see murders, we see things on TV with a
- 31:14Speaker 1: frequency that has never been experienced before, and there's actually
- 31:19Speaker 1: a detachment of the consequences and of the human life.
- 31:23Speaker 1: So now again, what somebody used to just do is say, well,
- 31:26Speaker 1: I feel like to Chloe dor Chloe, dumb me down.
- 31:29Speaker 1: For me, you're losing me, Okay, absolutely, So, just like
- 31:33Speaker 1: you're saying, Nancy, is that he's got this rage and
- 31:35Speaker 1: he used to just want people used to just say, well,
- 31:38Speaker 1: I feel like I could ring somebody's neck, And now
- 31:41Speaker 1: they're actually doing it because they've seen it on screen
- 31:44Speaker 1: a thousand times by the time people are ten years old,
- 31:47Speaker 1: they're seeing it on television, and now they're seeing it
- 31:50Speaker 1: on social media, and there's just a lack of understanding
- 31:53Speaker 1: about the actual human life behind it now like there
- 31:57Speaker 1: used to be before. Well, one thing I know too,
- 32:00Speaker 1: Joe Scott, Joe, I when I would prosecute and even
- 32:05Speaker 1: now I do look for somebody to blame. I do.
- 32:09Speaker 1: I want to know who caused this bad thing and
- 32:12Speaker 1: really how I can stop it from happening again. So
- 32:17Speaker 1: you've seen so many crimes as of all of us.
- 32:21Speaker 1: I guess he's looking for somebody to blame. So he
- 32:24Speaker 1: blames his ex that broke up with him. Yeah, you know,
- 32:27Speaker 1: And and the rationale always escapes you. I mean, how
- 32:30Speaker 1: many times if you and I sat that crime scenes
- 32:33Speaker 1: are in court and you're sitting there and you're completely
- 32:35Speaker 1: befuddled and you're scratching your head and saying, why did
- 32:38Speaker 1: why did this waste have to take place? I mean,
- 32:40Speaker 1: what what is it that you were so absent of
- 32:43Speaker 1: in your life that you had to go out and
- 32:46Speaker 1: lash out at at these at these innocent people. I was,
- 32:50Speaker 1: you know, I was working at the Medical Examiner's office
- 32:52Speaker 1: in Atlanta when we had the television on and uh
- 32:56Speaker 1: in the Oklahoma City bombing took place. And I had
- 33:00Speaker 1: a lot of friends that deployed out there and worked
- 33:03Speaker 1: on that case. And and that was one of the
- 33:05Speaker 1: things that that consistently came up over and over and
- 33:09Speaker 1: over again. They when those friends mine that were out
- 33:11Speaker 1: there that bore witness to this thing, they're thinking why, why,
- 33:15Speaker 1: why did this have to happen? The stories that they
- 33:17Speaker 1: would tell about those kids being killed in that nursery
- 33:20Speaker 1: up there when that bomb went off. And you know,
- 33:22Speaker 1: and you sit there as practitioner, and you wonder day
- 33:25Speaker 1: after day, and if you if you wonder, and this
- 33:28Speaker 1: is another you know, this is a dangerous thing for
- 33:30Speaker 1: us all to do. They're involved in this practice. You
- 33:33Speaker 1: get to the point where you get worn out with
- 33:35Speaker 1: why and you have to revert back to how you know,
- 33:38Speaker 1: how did it happen? And that helps you a little
- 33:40Speaker 1: bit better, just the science of it. But you go
- 33:44Speaker 1: crazy just wondering about why because there there is no
- 33:47Speaker 1: answer to this. And speaking of the ex girlfriend who
- 33:50Speaker 1: was with him, I believe about three years this joy Lane.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Here is what she had to say to Local Fox eight.
- 33:58Speaker 1: Listen of the hashtags joy Lane, joy Lane, massacre. I
- 34:01Speaker 1: don't know if I know how to be joy Lane anymore.
- 34:04Speaker 1: I don't know, um how to pick up all the
- 34:06Speaker 1: pieces of my world at the moment. I did try
- 34:09Speaker 1: to call him for people who were asking me like
- 34:11Speaker 1: call him, call him. I did um call him. He
- 34:14Speaker 1: didn't answer. The last time I talked to him with
- 34:17Speaker 1: Saturday night, around nine o'clock, we talked and he told
- 34:20Speaker 1: me he had quit his job and he was leaving
- 34:23Speaker 1: the state. I've got a lot of negative comments. I've
- 34:27Speaker 1: been called almost every cussword in the book. I've been
- 34:30Speaker 1: told that, um, I'm the one who should have died,
- 34:32Speaker 1: he should have killed me. But Lane says she has
- 34:35Speaker 1: also had a lot of support from family, friends and strangers,
- 34:40Speaker 1: including the family of Robert Godwin Sr. They met for
- 34:45Speaker 1: the first time Tuesday. I hug you tell you not
- 34:51Speaker 1: your fault. We love you, thank you. It is really
- 34:55Speaker 1: wanted to send. Lincoln Bonan says, and I'm very sorry
- 34:57Speaker 1: to talk to you guys. Sorry you not your fault.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Hard because I I feel, I feel bad. I feel
- 35:06Speaker 1: you know, the last thing that he would have said
- 35:08Speaker 1: was my name and didn't know me or why he
- 35:10Speaker 1: was saying it. And that's been difficult. Our father was
- 35:14Speaker 1: our rock and snatched from us. And we don't hold
- 35:19Speaker 1: any ill foolings towards you, not even towards Steve. Um.
- 35:24Speaker 1: I'm angry with him, yes, but I forgive him Alan.
- 35:28Speaker 1: Let's go now to the police presser. A little bit
- 35:31Speaker 1: after eleven today, UH Pennsylvania State Police officers received a
- 35:36Speaker 1: tip that the vehicle that we were looking for, the
- 35:39Speaker 1: white Ford Fusion, was in a McDonald's parking lot UH
- 35:43Speaker 1: near Erie p A. Those officers responded, the vehicle fled
- 35:49Speaker 1: from that area. There was a short pursuit in which
- 35:51Speaker 1: the vehicle was stopped. As the officers approached that vehicle,
- 35:55Speaker 1: Steve Stevens took his own life injury. That is a
- 36:00Speaker 1: bad thing. Um. I don't I wouldn't say a higher
- 36:04Speaker 1: level of alert, but we did have people actually on
- 36:07Speaker 1: the ground in that area on several occasions, looking at
- 36:10Speaker 1: not only the surrounding area, but that immediate area for
- 36:13Speaker 1: the pain. No, not accluding police presidence, but our our
- 36:20Speaker 1: federal partners were engaged in that area. I'm at the
- 36:23Speaker 1: point watching Nat. We would like to have brought Steven
- 36:27Speaker 1: peacefully and really talked to him to find out exactly
- 36:30Speaker 1: why this happened, because there may be other people out
- 36:33Speaker 1: there that are in similar situations that we can help
- 36:37Speaker 1: um by finding out why he did what he did
- 36:40Speaker 1: and what kind of drove him to this. And now
- 36:44Speaker 1: we head to Chicago with the same question, if it
- 36:47Speaker 1: doesn't happen on Facebook live, doesn't happen at all, because
- 36:51Speaker 1: in yet another jurisdiction, Chicago, a two year old tat
- 36:56Speaker 1: boy shot dead on Facebook Live and it's being videoed.
- 37:03Speaker 1: I don't get it. Lavon White, just two years old,
- 37:07Speaker 1: dies after a shooting in Chicago. You know, Joseph Scott Morgan.
- 37:14Speaker 1: This case is so upsetting. The Ant was riding in
- 37:19Speaker 1: a car along with the Todd and the ants twenty
- 37:23Speaker 1: six year old boyfriend in the in Braun daylight. A
- 37:27Speaker 1: gunman cuts them off, gets oute of the car and
- 37:31Speaker 1: opens fire on their vehicle and it's all caught on
- 37:36Speaker 1: Facebook Live. Listen to the video recommon we God spaks
- 38:12Speaker 1: that I think thank you all right, right, hey we
- 38:27Speaker 1: good red No, No, I don't cool man, and that
- 38:38Speaker 1: I signed out, Oh my god in a bad and
- 38:45Speaker 1: a bad I'm not going please please, I can't agree.
- 38:57Speaker 1: I can't believe it. The video starts with the music
- 39:01Speaker 1: and the car and they're just riding along at sunny outside.
- 39:05Speaker 1: About three minutes in, the sing along turns deadly when
- 39:10Speaker 1: you hear shots ringing out. The woman jumps out of
- 39:15Speaker 1: the car, scrambles out. Really, she's not jumping, she can't.
- 39:19Speaker 1: She runs out and starts begging for people to let
- 39:23Speaker 1: her into their home. And she's screaming called nine one one.
- 39:25Speaker 1: They killed him. I've got a bullet in my stomach.
- 39:28Speaker 1: I mean, they're minding their own business. Joseph's got Morgan.
- 39:33Speaker 1: The reality as while all this is happening, the two
- 39:36Speaker 1: year old Todd is bleeding out, dying. Yeah, these things
- 39:39Speaker 1: don't don't happen in a vacuum, Nancy. One moment, they're
- 39:43Speaker 1: just traveling down the road, minding their own their lives, streaming,
- 39:46Speaker 1: which a lot of people do now anyway, innocently listening
- 39:50Speaker 1: to music and the world just shatters and blows apart
- 39:53Speaker 1: with with gunfire. Uh. This is not a clean event.
- 39:57Speaker 1: It's not what people think that it is. This is
- 40:00Speaker 1: the frenetic nature of of of of a shooting. Uh.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Just and it's it's beyond the pale. This this little
- 40:08Speaker 1: two year old kid is literally bleeding out in that vehicle.
- 40:13Speaker 1: This woman running away in in horror, trying to find
- 40:17Speaker 1: somebody that will help her and show mercy to her
- 40:20Speaker 1: horrible set of circumstances, knees, and she's four months pregnant
- 40:24Speaker 1: and is shot in the stomach. To Dr Chloe Carmichael,
- 40:28Speaker 1: New York psychologist, creator of Aska dr cc dot com,
- 40:32Speaker 1: I'm looking right now at a happy second birthday card. Uh,
- 40:39Speaker 1: this sweet little boy Lavan, and he's all dressed in
- 40:43Speaker 1: blue with royal blue tennis shoes and blue jeans and
- 40:48Speaker 1: a blue shirt and so well taken care of with
- 40:53Speaker 1: a big smile. He was loved so much, and it's
- 40:58Speaker 1: just over just like that. To Chloe, it's really hard
- 41:01Speaker 1: for me to get my mind around it then to
- 41:03Speaker 1: know it was it was posted. The murder was posted online.
- 41:09Speaker 1: Nancy it is. It's hard to even fathom, you know
- 41:12Speaker 1: that the idea that this would be happening, and you
- 41:15Speaker 1: know why people would be viewing this type of material. Um.
- 41:19Speaker 1: You know, one thought is that it might be kind
- 41:22Speaker 1: of a misguided attempt um at at trying to um
- 41:28Speaker 1: bear witness to this. You know, people don't want to
- 41:30Speaker 1: just turn away from something like this, and so um
- 41:34Speaker 1: you know, if it's there, sometimes people feel just compelled
- 41:39Speaker 1: to watch it. Um. But what I think is really
- 41:43Speaker 1: frightening is the idea that on a certain level, it's
- 41:46Speaker 1: almost normalizing this type of thing, which is which is
- 41:50Speaker 1: terrible in terms of our society. And now we go
- 41:53Speaker 1: to suburban Carpentersville where a Facebook live a so called
- 42:00Speaker 1: ace book live torture case occurs. To John Linley cry Stories,
- 42:06Speaker 1: investigative reporter, what happened. An eighteen year old victim dropped
- 42:10Speaker 1: off at a McDonald's in suburban uh Stream, would Illinois
- 42:15Speaker 1: by his parents. The victim knew one of the suspects
- 42:18Speaker 1: before the incident occurred, as the two had attended the
- 42:22Speaker 1: same high school and the victim had mistakenly thought that
- 42:26Speaker 1: the two were friends. When the victim went to the McDonald's.
- 42:30Speaker 1: He had the intention of spending time with this friend.
- 42:34Speaker 1: The victim's parents filed a report that he was missing.
- 42:38Speaker 1: This is what we know. In the suburban area of Carpentersville.
- 42:41Speaker 1: Four people now accused of a four plus our attack
- 42:48Speaker 1: on an eighteen year old who had mental illness. And
- 42:55Speaker 1: what's so ironic about it is this mentally illan had
- 43:01Speaker 1: been friends with one of his tormentors before, police say,
- 43:04Speaker 1: a quote play fight happened. So the four come upon
- 43:09Speaker 1: this guy with a lot of different mental illnesses, and
- 43:16Speaker 1: they get him, and they take him and begin torturing him.
