• 4:17
  Speaker 8: miss Weekly is going to tell us a little bit
• 4:20
  Speaker 8: about what happened to her son and and afterwards, so
• 4:26
  Speaker 8: you kind of get a general idea I would ask you,
• 4:33
  Speaker 8: since the since the well, let's just start from the beginning.
• 4:36
  Speaker 8: Tell us what happened.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, So on August thirteenth, which was the second day
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: of seventh grade, we dropped Tristan off to Western Middle
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: School and Frisco. It was his first well, first time
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: going to school a second day, and when I went
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to go pick him up, he was not where I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: told him to be. And that it took me past
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: forty five minutes to realize that my son had passed
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: out when unconscious and you know, the next thing, I
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: knew he was in an ambulance. So when I went
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: to go pick him up. I went to go pick
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: him up, it was like around three fifty five. School
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: let out at three forty five, and I told him,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: since it was a new school, to be at the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: front of the school and if he didn't see me
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: as soon as school let out, go ahead and go
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: to the tennis court. And the tennis court is literally
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: on the same it's like part of the school property.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: So Tristan has never walked home. He has never straight
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: away from where I've told him to be at, so
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I kind of knew something was off. As soon as
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I got to the school, he wasn't there, Like, I
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: did not see him. So I went to the tennis court.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't see him there. Then there's an elementary school
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: right across the street like a park. I even went
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: to the elementary school and got out the car to
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: go up the hill to see if I saw him.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I did not see him. So for forty five minutes
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I drove, I did not leave that area. I called
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: home and asked my daughter if she could just check
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the camera to see you know, I knew he did
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: not walk home, but just to see if they had
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: heard from him. So when it, you know, I had
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: sent emails to different people at the school that I
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: had connections with, and nobody said anything. So I went
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: ahead and I called nine one one. After forty five minutes,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: and that's when, you know, I drove up to the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: school and I saw an unknown black lady and I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: asked her, was you know that my son was missing.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I was on the phone with nine one one. I
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: was on hold. I was told not to move and
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: just asked her if there was any kids left in
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the building. And she asked me if my son played volleyball,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: which there's not a boys volleyball team. But I told her,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: you know, he did not play volleyball. He played soccer.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: But it was the second day of school, there's no practice.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: And she proceeded to tell me that, you know, there
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: was nobody in the school but volleyball girls, and she
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: walked off. She didn't say anything. I later found out
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: that she was actually the assistant principal of the school,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: so that shocked me once I found out who she was.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: The next day, but when the nine one one dispatcher
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: came on the phone, they said that they had the
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: police department, you know, some officers on scene that wanted
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to talk to me because they found a kid and
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: they wanted to make sure, you know, to see if
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it was my son. So when they dispassed me in,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the officers told me to describe my child. I let
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: them know, you know, he was a you know, a
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: black kid. I described what he had on, and the
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: officer just kept asking me, you know, can you please
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: describe his hair, and I'm like, if it's my son,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: he can talk, like if he knows I'm his mother.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: So he was like, you know, well, the kid we
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: have is non verbal.
• 8:11
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: They thought this kid was literally in the sixth grade
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: or even younger. They thought he was an autistic kid
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that couldn't speak. And they so I was like, oh,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: that's definitely not my son. You know, he's verbal. They
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: was like, well, the kid is foaming at the mouth.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So they was like, you know, it could be your child,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: but no, it's not because this kid is actually non verbal.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: So before we got off the phone, you know, he
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: described his underwear and I mean, well, he called out
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: and said he had Batman underwear, and I said, oh,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that's my son. So you know, he gave me the information,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: he told me I needed to rush to the scene.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Going to the scene, it was like a maze. And
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I've been living in Frisco or this area for a minute,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and I've never seen this neighborhood. This is not somewhere
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: like you could just it was in the back. It
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: was probably a literally, I will say it was at
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: least close to like a ten minute drive almost, but
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: walking and running it was could be like twenty to
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: thirty minute walk, depending on your speed or whatever. So
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: when I got there, my son was already in the ambulance.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: They wouldn't let me get close to him. So, you know,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the police officer kind of stopped me. And I don't
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: know what made me ask this question, but I asked,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: where was my son's backpack? Because of course, you know,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: this is an unknown neighborhood. He is, you know, I'm
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: trying to wonder how he got there. So I'm looking
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: for his stuff, you know, and I saw you know, witnesses,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, you know, where is my son's stuff?
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So the officer, hey, I spoke to the principal. They said,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: your son dropped his backpack and he just his backpack
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: fell off and he just kept walking. So the facial
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: expression was like that don't make make any sense. And
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I was wondering, how did you get in touch with
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: the principal so fast? I've been trying to get in
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: touch with her forty five minutes. I was told nobody
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: was at the school, so he knew I was about
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: to ask questions, and he stopped me and he was like,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: you know, we got to rush to the ambulance. When
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I saw my son in the ambulance, his face looked
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: he had all you could tell it was dried up
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: substance all over his whole face, and he was like
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: a mummy. You know. They was poking him with needles
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: and my son did not flinch. And at that time
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I was unaware that you could really be unconscious but
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: look alert, you know. So at that time, the ambulance,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: you know, told me, hey, we haven't done nothing to him.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: So I just was like okay. So I was I
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: wanted to get in the ambulance, but they said I
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: could follow, so I was like okay, you know, you know,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: they was like, we just need to rush them. And
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking of police officers, which two were on scene,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: they were gonna meet me at the hospital. Because again
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: as a parent, my son is found at an unknown residence,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he is being poked. You can tell that he's under
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: some type of influence of something. Even being his mom,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: he's afraid of needles, so for him not to even flinch.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: So I got to the hospital in Frisco. You know,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the hospital is literally everything in arond the corner. So
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: we got there in less than ten minutes. So when
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: I got there, they was already working on my son.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: They put a capitor inside. You guys, he did not flinch.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: So later to find out that he had acetone in
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: his system. Basically it was a strong enough and such
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: a substantial amount that my son could not he couldn't move.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure he could probably feel, but he
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: could not. He wasn't flinching or anything. So that's how
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: strong that drug was. So and you all will hear
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: people say, which is crazy that of course they said,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: ad can form in your body. But let me say this,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: you can get drunk or something can form in your
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: body that don't. That don't. That's not strong enough where
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: you can't feel, you can't flinch, you can't, you know,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: So to that argument, it's really just crazy, you know
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: that people just keep on trying to assume, and even
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: the hospital say the things that they tried to say.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: But anyways, so later on that night we did find
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: out after they did tests because at first they did
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: not want to do any tests. They wouldn't even I
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: asked for him to for them to test him to
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: see if he had been touched, because again, all I
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: know is he was found at a stranger's doorstep unconscious.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: They wouldn't do it. The doctor didn't tell me. They
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: had a caseworker coming there, and she told me and
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: my ex husband, no, they couldn't do it because children
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: had rights. And I was like, well, he's only twelve
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm his parents, so you're telling me that if
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking something has happened, he's unconscious, he cannot talk,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: he's you know, he would have spells to where he
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: was literally literally I haven't told anybody this, but my son.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: He would be He would start randomly screaming. He didn't
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: know who anybody was, He didn't even know I was
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: his mom. So it was a scary sight to see. Okay,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: So you know, I was like, I don't understand so
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: they wouldn't do anything. They wouldn't They did not look
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: at a kid would sound on a doorstep like they
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: really was literally treating it as if I brought my
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: son in the emergency room and said, oh, he's been
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: feeling sick. You know. That is how they treated it,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: instead of saying, a kid is found randomly on the
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: doorstep with no feeling he's unconscious, That's how they did it.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: That was weird to me. So the police officers did
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: not come to the hospital. That was also weird. When
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I called nine one one, the NUN emergency line to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: ask questions, the dispatcher was so rude. I asked him
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: they would not give me the officers names straight off,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I said, hey, I just want to know who the
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: officers were. Can I get their names? They refused to
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: give me the officers' names that found my son, which
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: is crazy. So I told him, you know, I said, hey,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I'm just trying to get in touch with the officers.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Told me that the officers had already clocked out for
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: the day. Now, mind you, you guys, this is all
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: within ten minutes we literally had made it to the hospital.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I said, well, I'm trying to get in touch with
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: them because they said they spoke to the principal. The
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: guy said, well, we don't work for the school, so
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you know, I stayed come. Another thing that threw me
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: off that they told me, oh, we can read the report.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: So again, you guys, this is within less than ten minutes.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: The offic so did not come to the hospital. They
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: probably made it to the you know, to the police
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: station about the same time we made it to the hospital.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of report you can write,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: you know, within a couple of seconds, which I knew
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: that was a lot. You know, that was so basically
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: in the report that the person read was a kid
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: was found on a doorstep, uh dropped his backpack and
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: and basically that was it. Now, at the time, I
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: was not thinking straight. I knew that it was not
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: And y'all can stop me anytime. I'm sorry, you're fine,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: You're fine. At the time, none of it was adding up.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: But I had never had any run ins with Frisco ID.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I had never had any run ins with Frisco PD.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: So it didn't like even done on me, like this
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: is weird, you know what I'm saying, Like this is
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: really some weird stuff. That's going on, and everything is
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: so close in the proximity of where I live, you know,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: So you know, I said, okay, I said, I'll go
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: ahead and I'll just go to the school in the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: morning and i'll call tomorrow. The guy was like, okay,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: you know. So when I got off the phone, they
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: were moving my son into ICU.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: My son stayed in the hospital for two weeks, two
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: whole weeks, but they, you know, they was moving him
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: to I See You and I remember, you know, they
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: were still treating it as if it was just hey,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: a mom brought a kid in, uh, And they wasn't
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: trying to do nothing, we said, They said we had
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: to wait for him to wake up and he had
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: to consent to getting tested. Well, my son, you know,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: when we took him up to I See You, I
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: was outside of the room and I remember one of
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the nurses was like, your son is calling for you.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: So he was kind of coming out of whatever he
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: was in, and I remember, I'm for sitting down and
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: it was god like, I you know, I don't know
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: why I asked him this, but I was like, hey,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: did he try to grab you? Because whenever we think
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: about something like that we think of somebody more masculine,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: you know. So I'm like, did some did he try
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to get you and you got away? And my son said, no,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: she tried to get me. And at that point the
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: tech looked up. It was just me and a tech
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: in the room, and he looked up and he was like,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: what did he just say? And my son, I said,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: what do you mean she tried to get you? And
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: he said, clearest day, he said, Mom, do you remember
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: when you pick me up on the first day of school?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: And it was crazy because I walked to get him
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: on the first day of school because you know, he's
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: going into the seventh grade. I'm working from I work
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: from home now, so I'm trying to like he a
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: big kid, you know. So I'm like, I know, of
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: the mom, I ain't gonna never let him walk home.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: But I was like, let me try to start letting loose.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: This my last my baby. So I walked to get
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: him and he said, remember when you walked to get me,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: and you know, all the people was in the you know,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: the bus rider line or whatever. Now I remember some teachers,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: but I you know, but he was like, she was
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: she was out there, and I said, oh wow, he said, yeah,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: he said, he said, when you drop. When I went
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: to school the next day, in the hallway where all
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: the teachers. You know, you meet the students in the hallway.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: You know, when you go to school, all the teachers
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: are in the hallway. He said, she was in the hallway.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: So this lady was It's like she made herself visible,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: but not visible, you know, to where he knew. He
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: saw her more than once, so he thought she was
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: a teacher. So he said he went to the bathroom
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: and when he went to the bathroom, there's no doors,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: and he said he heard a lady call his name,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: and he said when he went out, it was the
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: young lady. He said that she told her him. She said,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: nice to meet you, christ in my name of Amanda.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: And you know, they talked for a little bit and
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: she offered him some ice cream. Now this is when
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: he told us the story in the hospital. He said,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: you know, Mama, she offered me some ice cream. I
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: told her no, thank you, and you know, she became
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: agitated and then she smushed it in my face and
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: my finger pricked. It felt like she pricked my finger.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: So when he opened up more recently, without me saying anything.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Somebody asked him some questions for the first time, and
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: he said, no, she she actually talked to him for
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: a couple of minutes. You know, he was like, she
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: talked to me a little because I always wondered what
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: he meant by she became agitated. So now I understand
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: that when she was talking to him, she seemed very welcoming,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: you know, and when she offered him the ice cream
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: and he didn't take it, she became agitated and she
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: smushed and he said after that everything went kind of dark,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and you know, when he woke up pretty much he
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: was in the hospital, so he did run out of
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: the cafeteria door. Now skipping today too. After I found
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: all this out, you know, I asked my mom and
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: my ex husband. I said, I need y'all to stay
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: at the hospital, right, don't leave his side. You know,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: they made sure they kept attaching their twenty four hours
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: because now they were starting to do protocol. You know.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: So when I I stayed majority of the night and
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: I came home because I was like, I need to
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: make sure I'm making school first thing in the morning.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: A police officer, they the social workers did tell a
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: police officer up there, and the police officer did call
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: me while I was at home. My son was sleep
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: but he said he didn't want to wake Tristing up.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: So till this day, a police officer, the police department,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: and the detectives refused to question Tristan. I just want
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: that to be I even ask them, why why why
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: haven't y'all questioned him? Why haven't y'all got his side
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: of the story. You know, you're asking me, you know,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: but he can tell you hisself. And the detective told
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: me he refused, He was like, we don't need to
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: talk to him. So that was always weird as well.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: So when I went to the school the next day,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I met the principal for the first time. And when
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: I walked in, the first thing she said, you you know, hey,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: you know, I got Tristan's backpack. Let me get it
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: for you. She didn't say, how is your son? You know,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: whatever happened to him? What was he found okay? Because
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: she didn't know yet, right, It was nothing like that.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: It was, oh, let me get his backpack and give
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: it to you. And I said, well, wait, you know
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: when she went and got the backpack, she came back,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: I said, wait a minute, I said, one, my son
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: is an ICU, right, I said, he also had a
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: acetone was found in his system. My son was found
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: unconscious on a doorstep. Right, So I said, but you
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: are the missing piece to the puzzle because you told
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: an officer that my son backpack fell off and he
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: kept walking. My son is twelve. I picked him up
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: every day myself from school since he started kindergarten. Okay,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: and never have Tristan just dropped his backpack. And if
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: you got any kids in school, if y'all know how
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: crazy the school pickup line is and the school is,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: you dropped backpack, somebody gonna pick it up. Hey, you
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: know you dropped the backpack. I told her, I said,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: will you please show me where he dropped his backpack
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: on the camera before you showed me the footage. So
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: she showed me where he you know, the door he
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: walked out of and where his backpack dropped. So I said, okay,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: roll the footage. Now. She told the you know, she
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: told the people, the officers that he walked off. Calmly boom.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: When we played the footage, it showed my son walking
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: through the cafeteria two to three minutes before the bell rang.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: He was frantic. You could tell. He walked out the
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: cafeteria door. He looked to the left. There's a deaddy
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: and there's a fence. You would literally you're you're you're,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: you're railroaded in. There's nowhere to go unless you run
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: around the whole building. You caught by. Then there's just
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: you should not go that way. And he looked to
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: the right, and my son ran. Now, when he walked
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: out the cafeteria door frantically, you could tell he was thinking.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: He put his backpack down to alleviate Wait, you could
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: tell what he was doing, and he ran. She stopped
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: the camera. She looked at me. She said, oh my god,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: he did look francy. I said, well, and he ran.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: I said, well, you told them, I said, there's a
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: difference between your backpack something dropping and you putting it down.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: And there's a difference between running and walking. Let's just
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: get that straight. So we're most saying the same thing.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: So if you watched the same thing I watched when
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: the police officers called you about a missing kid, this
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: is why wouldn't you tell them this? She said, Oh,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I wasn't thinking, you know, now, you know. So I
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: told her to replay it again, right because I wanted
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: to make sure that I saw the timestamp. Now, I
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: used to work at a bank where I was a
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: branch manager. I had to watch the footage all the time,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: so I knew what the time stamp mean. I didn't
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: know what, you know, I knew like it was off.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: So when she ran it back, I said, why was
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: my son out of class two to three minutes before
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: the bell rung? She could not answer that. In most
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: cases you would have called the teacher. They would have,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: you know, let me find out. She didn't want to
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: find She didn't say she said, I'll ask her. I
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: don't know, you know. At that time, she turned the
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: footage off, you guys, and I was denied footage. Four
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: months after that, they would not let me watch no
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: more footage. So she sat down and she was like,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like you're interrogating me because I went on
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to ask her questions, like hey, I did reach out
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: to a counselor, and she told me that nobody on
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: her staff has to respond after unauthorized. She said it
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: another way, but it was basically, after a certain time,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: no one has to respond to you. Right, So I said,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: I understand it. But before I could tell her that
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: the counselor did respond, she kept talking. I said, well,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I did drive up to the school and I realized
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: that I'm outside of your office and I met a
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: black I met a no, no, you know what, I
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: didn't say the color, I said, I met a lady.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: You guys. She said, oh, that was my assistant principal.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: So right, so how did you know? You know, like
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I'm looking like I didn't even know that, So how
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: did you?
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: So?
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I said, oh, that was your assistant principal. She said, yeah,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: she came in and she asked me if I was
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: aware that a kid was missing. So I'm shortening the
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: story so to make a long story short. At first,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: she said, you guys that she was not aware that
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: a kid was missing, right, But when the assistant principal
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: walked in that office and asked her, the police department
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: had already contacted her. So I was on hold for
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a while. I didn't know that they were actually the
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: dispatchers that and the police department was actually calling the school.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: So while I was sitting outside on hold, they were
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: inside the police department or whoever it was they were
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: talking to the principal.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Right, So when I called her in a lie because
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: I said, well, if the assistant principal came here and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: asked you if you knew a kid was missing, one
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: you knew before she did. You said no at first,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and she was like, oh, yeah, well, you know a
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: lot was going on. And I said, well another thing,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: why didn't your assistant principal tell me who she was.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Why didn't she let me know that she was coming
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: in here to ask you and that she was going
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: to check footage to see if a kid got on
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: the wrong bus. She said, I don't know. She said,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: we thought you were gone. I said, well I had
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: told her that I was supposed to wait outside, So
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: that right there sounds crazy, okay, So I said, okay,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Well she said she would be right back. So I
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: thought that she was going to go get the teacher
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: to ask my son about to let me know if
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: my son why he wasn't in class right on that
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: footage I saw, Well, she went and got an officer.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: This officer name was Richard Pippen. So when he came
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: in again, you guys, I was not thinking. I didn't
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: put everything together until after a couple of days. So
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: I wasn't even thinking, like, where did the officer come from?
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: You know? Now I knew that our schools had officers
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: on site. I didn't know what their title was, right,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: but I knew they did. So I was like, well,
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: maybe I didn't know. But the first thing he came
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: in and he said, he introduced himself, right, and he
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: told me who he wasn't He said that, you know,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: he wasn't the SRO at the school. He told me
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: he did not work at the school. And he told
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: me that he did not know any of the protocol right.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I later found out that he was basically answering all
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the questions that he thought I would have asked. You
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, he wanted to throw I think
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: their whole thing was to throw me off, right, So
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't understand. You know, I didn't even
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: know what the SRO was. I'm like, views listening, what
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: is an SRO office? It is a school resource officer,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: So it is an actual offer officer that works for
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: h your city's department, but they are assigned to different schools. Right.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: But so everything he said he wasn't he was Okay,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: so you know, he said, hey, you know, I got kids,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I know how you feel. And he literally he left.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: He left. He left right after having a conversation with
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: the principal for three to four hours, you guys, three
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: to four hours. It was nothing. It was nothing but
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: lie after lie after lie after lie. Immediately her boss
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: came in. I think his name was it Will either
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Mark or Mike. I got to get the name, but
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: he came in. They busted in because by that time
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: I had I had the principal and the assistant principal
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: in the office, and so they busted in. They made
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: the two ladies get out, and the first thing they
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: said was they had watched the footage. Now mind you,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: this was my first time because it just happened. So
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: for two people that are higher up, like probably I
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: would say, he's the manager, he's right under the superintendent.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: For them to walk in and tell me they don't
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: watch footage, it was just like it's like me, US
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: US three, US four talking and I haven't even told
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: y'all the story, and you guys are already you know,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: kind of y'all know more than I do, you know,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: like you know, it's like Sissy tell you know, Dwayne
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: ain't supposed to know nothing, but Sissy done, you know,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: So it was just like so I asked him, I said,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: I asked the the gentlemen, I said, do you want
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: to know what happened? Like what the principal said? He
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: said no, and he said it as stern as he
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: could like it blew my mind to where I grabbed
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: my son's backpack. I stood up and I said, hey,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I said, I'm about to get everybody, every news station
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I can at the front door of the school. Just
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: give me a couple of seconds, you know. So I
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: guess the the person that I guess it's probably, I
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: would say, like a spokesperson or whatever. You know. He
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: asked for us to all sit down, and the first
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: thing they said was that my son did look frantic.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Right now. Mind you, we didn't watch the footage together,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: so I don't know if when she walked out, she
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: went and called for backup and they had washed the footage,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: but they were like, you know, hey, you know your
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: son did look frantic. What do you want to happen?
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna lie, said, I want her fired because
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: what I heard for four hours, I'm ninety nine percent
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: sure that. I was like, this lady did something to
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: my child, like she Now, I couldn't say the officer
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: because at that time I believed who he said. He
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: was not right, so I had no reason to believe
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: anything else. They was like, well, we got to get
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: HR involved and we'll get an investigation.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: They never told me what I had to do, so
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: they didn't tell me that I had to send an
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: email or go online and you know, report to the district.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: They didn't tell me what I had to do. So
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking they're gonna do an investigation and I'm gonna
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: hear something back you guys that did not happen. The
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: next day, I asked them that before I left the school.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: When I left, I sent an email and I asked
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: them if I could get a copy of the footage
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: sent to me. She was like, no, you can come
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: back and watch it now. When I came back the
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: next day, this was the last time I was ever
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: on school property, they set me down with the assistant principal.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: She tried to show me what she wanted to show me.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: I said, no, show me, like, I want you to
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: play it all the way through, Like, don't show me
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: bits and pieces, because I know how things could look
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: like something is not, you know, so she wouldn't do that.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: She just said, well, she wanted to only show me
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Trystan walking out of the classroom with a whole bunch
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: of people. I said, that can't be true, because if
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: that's the case, it would have followed him into the cafeteria.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: If anybody look at my interview from a year ago,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: From the time that I have been on camera, I
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: have always said, there was nobody in that footage with
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: my son. So what they tried to show me this
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: year in a hearing with a bunch of kids in
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: the cafeteria, that was definitely edited. I know what I saw.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't see that, and it's on social media. So anyways,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: she wouldn't show me that. She just kept saying, I
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: was told you was coming to watch a certain on
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the footage you was coming to watch. I said, no,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: play it through. Now I had only been in there
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: less than five minutes. I asked her. Did she talk
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: to the teacher about if my son was in class?
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: She said no. I said, can you ask her? She
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: told me no. I said, can you get somebody to
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: ask if my son was in class. She said no.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: As soon as she said no, and I'm I'm I'm
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: this is not theatrical okay, And I'm not gonna yell
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: in y'all ear. But the principal, who I talked to
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: for four hours, she came and she busted in the cap.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: She busted in the office. She did not greet me.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: She looked right at the assistant principle and she said,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: we have a meeting. We can't be late. Let's go.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: She was a little more stern than that. Now my
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: daughter was a witness. My twenty one year old daughter
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: was in their witness. I stood up. I was at
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: that time. I knew.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: One.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: I told them they are bad actress and actresses. I
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: knew something. Something had been done to my son purposely
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: when she did that. So I said, I said, what
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: is wrong with you? I said, you you set this
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: meeting up right? You busting here a parent where you
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: know her son, isn't I see you? You don't say hey,
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: thiss weekly. Her name is Katie Grinaldo. It's me gran
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: missus Rinaldo. You don't nothing, you literally, but I say
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: you are a bad actress. Now she stepped back because
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I was angry. I wasn't yelling, but at that time
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I knew something happened to my son. It was not
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: by certain you know, it wasn't by like accident. So
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: she walked out. Now I'm paying attention to you guys.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: She did her hand like this. Guess who walked in?
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: So I called nine one one and I said, I
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: want some police officers down here. Now, I said, because
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: something happened to my son. They did something to my son.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Well I saw her do like this, and guess who
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: walked in the same officer, right, I said. I knew
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: his name. I said, mister Pippin. And the lady the dispatcher, said,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Officer Pippin is there. I said yeah. She said, oh, well,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: we don't need the dispatch any officers. There's one on scene.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: I said, well, I said, I don't even know where
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: he came from. They was like, well, no, you know,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: but he's an officer. So I hung up the phone
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: and he came in the same way. He didn't, you know,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't come in and try to put
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: me out because I wasn't out rape. But I was
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: really stern because now I'm like, okay, all types of
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: red flags are going off. He asked me if I
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: could sit down. He said, can you sit down for
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: a minute. I said yes. He said, can do you
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: mind if I talk to you? I said yes. He said,
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: remember what I told you yesterday? I said yeah. He
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: said what did I say? I said, you said, you're
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: not an SRO, you don't work for the school, and
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: you don't know any of the school policies. I repeated
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: it back to him and he said yeah. He said,
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: but I know how you feel. He said, you're in
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: the wrong place. He said, you should be at the
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: district the office down the street. I said, well, I
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: didn't know that because I was told to come here
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: right and again he tried to get me with the
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: kid thing. You know, hey, I got kids just like you.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I understand. You know, you need to go up there.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: You need to go ahead and follo a complaint, you know,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: to get an investigation going. And I left. That was
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: the last time I was at the school. You guys,
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: so just feeding it up. The crazy part is that
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: this same man, I found out that he was head
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: of the investigation of what at the school. So the
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: school had had an investigation going. Y'all see my hands
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: and then they had not put it to detective on
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: my son's case because the school said they were going
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: to do an investigation first. Right, So the day that
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: man walked in there and told me who he was not,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: he was head of the investigation. I want you to
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: know that. So the second day when he came and
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: talked to me, he was head of the investigation. So
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: he was knowingly lion, purposely lion to me and giving
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: me unsolicited lies. Okay, I found that out on accident
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: when I kept going to the police department because my
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: son did cold y'all, he almost lost his life and
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: I see you. And when they brought him back, I
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: was concerned because I hadn't heard from no one, not
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: a detective, not a police officer. So I was like,
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: I need someone to hear my story because if something
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: happened to my son, I'm his only voice, you know.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, I need to get somebody up here
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: to hear the voice. So when I called Chrisco PD
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: that night, they told me that it was on a Friday,
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: that detectives didn't work on weekends, right, so I had
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: to wait until a Monday. So I went to the
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: police department and I found out that. Now, the detective
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: that I talked to still did not tell me, you guys,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: that who was the investigator at the school? Right? But
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: he told me that the school was doing an investigation.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: That's why a detective wasn't on the case. But I said,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: I haven't talked to nobody. So he was like, I'm
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: gonna put the detective on the case.
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: So I hadn't heard from the detective yet. I went
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: back to the police department. I was going all week.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: An unknown officer at the window. He was like, well,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: I can tell you who's the investigator at the school,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: you guys. When he told me Richard Pippen, I could
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: have passed out. He saw the expression on my face
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: and he was like, is everything okay? And I tried
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: to mask it because I did not want to look
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: as stunned as I did, and I just said, no,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: I have no Now I'm like, oh, because so people
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: were telling me things because they thought I knew, you know,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: So in the beginning I don't think that certain people
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: was I was trying to cover up. But once the
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: word was getting around to whoever was trying to cover
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: up what they have been since day one you could
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: tell when I was getting information people was not meaning
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: to give me the information. So at that time, that's
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: when I found out he was the SRO. That's when
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: I found out that he was head of the investigation.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: This man had put out information that he had spoke
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: to me numerous the times. And when I told the detective,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: his boss and other people at the police department, you guys,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: they told me they cannot help what I thought I heard.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: So then when I clearly told them that I had
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: I talked to anybody from the school about an investigation,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: they basically was calling me a liar. So I'm saying,
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard. So the interaction that I had with
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: this officer those two days, they said that was communication
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: just and then last to just leave it off the detective.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: They took the case, which was Detective Folk. The day
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: he took it, he said, I asked him, why did
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Frisco PD Frisco PD, and why did Frisco ID put
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: out false statements to the public. He told me that
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: he didn't put that out. He wouldn't his department would
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: not have put that out. When I asked him who
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: put it out, he said it was somebody higher in
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: a higher pay pay grade than he was. Right, So
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: he said he had so much footage to watch, he
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: had to get footage. This detective closed my son's case
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: in less than a week. I knew from the footage
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: he claimed he had to watch that he did not
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: watch no footage, y'all. But he claimed he watched. He
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: didn't see a lady. He said. The only person he
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: saw on camera with any interaction with my son was
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: the sro The same yeah, the same sro O that
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: said he didn't he didn't work there at that school.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: But you're on camera, Uh where my son got information
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: from you? Right? Because my son did not, you know,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: to ask about classes. The two things that I want
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: to be taken away from what I just said is
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: this year I found out that my son's case was closed.
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: The detective never watched any footage, right, he never watched
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: any footage. So that was a lie, right when my
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: when the detective tried to get footage from the school
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: this year, they could not provide the detective anything after
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: noon after twelve o'clock. The other thing I wanted to
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: be taken away is my son was seen on camera
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: two to three minutes walking out of the cafeteria. Right,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: he was out of class way before that, because he
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: was in the hallway, he was in the bathroom, he
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: talked to this woman.
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: My question has always been, and nobody has said anything,
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: is why would a kid go to the bathroom and
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: have his backpack? Why would he need his backpack unless
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: my son thought it was the end of the day.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: As this story, like as I said here and it's
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: been a year, and the things that I found out
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: and I've heard myself. They got my son out of
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: that classroom, and they made my son think that it
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: was school was out, because I always asked him and
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: wonder when he was in the hospital, why he kept
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: saying When I said why you had your backpack? He
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: said school was let out. They let us out, I said, Tristan,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: but you were the only one in the cafeteria. So
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: it was key things that my son said that never
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: added up until until recently within the year of basically,
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: whoever let my son out of this classroom or however
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: they they've made him seem they made it seem to him,
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: take your backpack, school is letting out, you know. So
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: that's what those are the two things that I really
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: want people to take away is that the detective never looked,
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: he lied about watching footage. My son never was given
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: a fair chance right, and a kid had his backpack
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: and he was made to believe that it was the
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: end of the day.
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: So oh wow, yeah.
• 44:52
  Speaker 8: Miss Weekly, how is Tristan today?
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: He's not good. A lot of people ask me that question,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: and I, Sissy, I always say, oh, he's doing better,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: but my son finally broke down on Monday. Homeschool is
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: hard for him. And when I tell people that my
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: son's childhood was snatched away, you know, people still be like, oh, well,
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: he's only thirteen. No, his childhood was snatched away. He
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: was looking forward to the seventh grade. He was a
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: kid that all he knew was school and now he
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: was snatched out of school because of an incident, and
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: he's isolated. We try to get him out, but he don't.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: He don't. He can't talk. He don't talk to friends.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: You know, all his friends are in school. He doesn't
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: go out. So it's like he is isolated and and
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: homeschool is hard from a kid that is used to
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: having extra support and extra help to having to learn
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: on his own. It's not a lot of support in homeschool.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Like I don't know if it's because of the school
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: that we have him in, it's not a lot of support.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: And my son broke down, Sissy, And it was the
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: first time in a whole year that I've seen my son.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: I've seen that same kid in the ambulance. I've seen
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: that same kid that I saw in the hospitals for
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: two weeks who was in so much pain, that was
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: having seizures, that was crying off and on, had crying spells.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: And it broke me down because I had to apologize
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: to him again and tell him I'm sorry one because
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: nothing has been done. He didn't deserve it. You know,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: everybody if life is as normal for everybody, right, But
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: he's a kid that don't know how to express hisself. So, Sissy,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: he's not doing good. And as a parent, you know
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: my son, you know, he tries to not say a
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: lot because he's trying because he don't want me to
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: stress out. You know, he knows I'm still advocating. He
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: don't want me to wear it. But I think you know,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: he had he went he was at his breaking point
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: on my day, and I had to remember instead of
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: like telling a story and me reminiscent. I had to
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: realize that my son is trying to He tried to
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: block it out, but you can only block it out
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: for so long, so he's not doing it so good.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: You know, we.
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: Definitely would We definitely keep him in prayer and keep
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: you guys in prayer because I know, just from listening
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: to the story and knowing of the story and speaking
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: with you before, this is a moment that's that's real strange.
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: I think that's the word I can use. It's strange.
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: And I know this is limited time here. I know
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: you guys have another event schedule in January to be
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: able to go more in depth and sit down and
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: really go into the thing, into this situation. We wanted
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: to take the day to really just give people a
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: foundation and let them know exactly what's going on in
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: Tristan and tristan situation in his life, so they can
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: kind of know what's going on because people heard the
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: initial stories and hurt the initial reports, and they were
• 48:11
  Speaker 4: not true and they were far from what happened to
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: Tristan that day, and so we want to make sure
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: that people got that opportunity to hear that story directly
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: because they only hear it and get some pieces of
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: conversations about other situations that's going on in Frisco and
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: in Texas, and they really don't get the chance to
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: hear directly of the situation. And what better way is
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: from his mom and from his mother in the front
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: of person that dealt with it from the beginning. And
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: we just really want to thank you today for coming
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: on and sharing with us that story. And I just
• 48:46
  Speaker 4: want to let you know that we're definitely here and
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: we're definitely going to continue to work with you and
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: work for you guys in this situation, and this won't
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: be the last opportunity that we will have to talk
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: about this, but we know that in January and sister
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: can share that that date and everything in the platform
• 49:05

• 49:08

  Speaker 1: day after we came home from the hospital and me
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: and Tristan was hugging in the bed, you know, because
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: I was just so grateful. So that's the reason I
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: put that picture up because every everything that happened to

• 52:01
  Speaker 1: but I.
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: Have a magazine focused on sharing things black about our
• 52:07
  Speaker 5: black and brown community because a lot of things go
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: unheard concerning our black and brown community. So I've been
• 52:15
  Speaker 5: had this magazine now five years to be six years
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: in May, and my whole focus is to talk about
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: those things that seem to get brushed under the rug.
• 52:27
  Speaker 5: So I want to send this to you an opportunity
• 52:31
  Speaker 5: to share your baby story inside of this magazine and
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: we invite you back anytime you want to come and
• 52:40
  Speaker 5: share on our platform.

  Speaker 1: You're more than welcome.
• 52:44
  Speaker 5: Doctor Ceci and Dwayne, they stopped by as much as
• 52:48
  Speaker 5: they can. I'm thinking about just offering them a spot

  Speaker 5: for next season because we're getting ready to wrap up
• 52:56
  Speaker 5: season three here on the podcast the thirty first of
• 52:59
  Speaker 5: the December. But we will be back for season four
• 53:04
  Speaker 5: February the first, and we are about being the change
• 53:09
  Speaker 5: that we desired to see in this world. I'm glad
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: that you are sharing your story. There are so many
• 53:14
  Speaker 5: things that you shared today that just it's unacceptable.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: It's unacceptable.
• 53:20
  Speaker 5: I can't believe that a lot of these things slipped
• 53:23
  Speaker 5: through and people did not address them.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: It's sad. I'm sitting here.
• 53:31
  Speaker 5: There's no way that people didn't realize that this was
• 53:34
  Speaker 5: a straight cover up. I don't know, but I mean,
• 53:39
  Speaker 5: it speaks nothing but cover up from.
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: Every one of my hosts.
• 53:42
  Speaker 5: That's the first thing that they say, and this is
• 53:45
  Speaker 5: their first time hearing about this story, but immediately they.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: Say cover up.
• 53:50
  Speaker 5: And ye, and that's all I heard as you were speaking,
• 53:54
  Speaker 5: that that was all I heard. So I just know
• 53:57
  Speaker 5: that we are here. I also have a five a
• 54:01
  Speaker 5: M prayer a prayer line. We would definitely be lifting
• 54:04
  Speaker 5: your baby up and your family up because we're tired
• 54:09
  Speaker 5: of thing these things happening, and we want these things
• 54:12
  Speaker 5: that are being done in the dark and and these
• 54:15
  Speaker 5: corrupt things to be exposed.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: So definitely, you have a platform.
• 54:21
  Speaker 5: You have two amazing people sitting right there on that
• 54:23
  Speaker 5: platform that are definitely doing an amazing job and advocating
• 54:29
  Speaker 5: for for justice. Yeah, and I'm just I'm just grateful

  Speaker 5: felt like I needed to come on and let you
• 54:51
  Speaker 5: know that you have a place, know that you you
• 54:55
  Speaker 5: have an outlet, because your voice needs to be heard,
• 54:58
  Speaker 5: it needs to be amplify.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: Most definitely, I really appreciate it. And if y'all look
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: up the story. People always do this all the time, y'all.
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: But our name is l E y, So it's w
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: e e k l e y h. But as soon
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: as you put it in Tristan story is gonna come up.
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: But it's w e E k l E Y. And
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: I just want to say thank you for allowing me
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: to use your platform. Thank you since and Dwayne, I
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: know I was trying to talk fast because I know
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: Dwayne was like thirty minutes and I was like, oh lord,
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at the time, and I was. But you know,
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: I did share some things that I have not shared
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: honestly with anybody else. But thank you again. I am
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: excited and ready to you know, be on the platform
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: to go more into detail. And yeah, like I'm glad
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: I got a team behind me and people are really
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: looking into it and that people are starting to really
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: listen with a good ear and notice that you know,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: it was definitely a cover up and they're still trying
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: to cover it up. But my son deserves justice. He
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: somebody to be held accountable. So if we never find
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: out who this woman is, that the people that are
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: trying to cover it up be held accountable so that
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: they would think twice before trying to pull this again,
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: you know, as boldly as they did the first time.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: So thank you so much.
• 56:21
  Speaker 4: Be right about it and definitely let Trustan know and
• 56:24
  Speaker 4: you know, Chandra that we do have you guys back,
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: and we're praying, and not only praying, but we're physically
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: on top of this moment and behind you guys, and
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: whatever way we need to be, we will be in
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: all of our platforms, in our lives. We are there
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: for you because I understand that pain. And yeah, like
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: I told you before on TikTok, I apologize to someone
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: that lived near your community that just kind of overlooked
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: this thing and took the news media's report as go
• 56:53
  Speaker 4: and didn't look into it. And that's that's an error
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: on our part for doing so. Yeah, and so we
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: have to, as Angelust say, we have to be accountable
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: for each other, to each other and make sure that
• 57:06
  Speaker 4: these type of things don't happen. Because Tristan went through
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: something that is horrible and the more that I hear
• 57:13
  Speaker 4: about it, the more I listened to it, the more
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: I see that it was and that's why I was traumatized.
• 57:19
  Speaker 4: And so we do need to hold them accountable because
• 57:22
  Speaker 4: they know, and that's bottom line, they know what happened
• 57:25
  Speaker 4: to that baby, and they don't want to let us
• 57:27
  Speaker 4: know because it looks bad for the political and the
• 57:30
  Speaker 4: financial history interests of Frisco, Collin County and the state
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: of Texas. And so we have to call it out
• 57:36
  Speaker 4: and we have to hold them accountable.
• 57:38

• 57:43
