  Speaker 2: All right, let's get into today's stories.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: In nineteen ninety two, forty one year old Marvin Hemeyer
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: purchased a plot of land in the small town of Granby, Colorado.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: They are for the next decade he would run a
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: muffler shop. Then, in the early two thousands, a cement
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: company approached him and asked if they could buy a
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: portion of his land so they could build a plant.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: And at first Marvin was not really interested in the idea,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: but the cement company was offering a lot of money,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: and so Marvin came around to the idea, and after
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: a long negotiation, Marvin and this company were about to
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: sign a contract when Granby's zoning commission informed the cement
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: company they didn't need to buy Marvin's property in order
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to build this plant. They could actually build it right
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: next to Marvin's property. The cement company was thrilled. Marvin
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: was furious. Not only was he losing a ton of
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: money with this deal falling through, but also he used
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: to use that plot of land that sat next to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: his property as a cut through between his house and
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: his muffler shop. Marvin immediately began petitioning the town to
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: try to stop the construction of this plant, but he
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: was repeatedly rejected, and within a year the.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Plant was built right next to Marvin's property.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: A couple of years later, on the afternoon of June fourth,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: two thousand and four, Granby residents heard a very loud
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: sound that almost sounded like thunder coming from somewhere in
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the town, and so they ran outside to see what
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: it was. When they looked down the road, they saw it.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: It was a fully armored bulldozer coming right down the
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: center of town. The sides, the top, the back to front.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: The whole thing was completely encased in steel sheets, and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: in some parts the steel was over.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: A foot thick.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Traveling at four miles an hour, its treads were enormous,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and as it went over the road it was taking
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: huge bites out of the ground. There was no way
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: to tell who was actually driving this bulldozer because there
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: were no windows, and in fact, the person who was
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: in there had welded themselves inside and they had installed
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: cameras on the outside so they could see where.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: They were going.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Terrified residents ran for cover and began calling nine to
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: one one. Over the next two hours, this homemade assault
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: vehicle would go on a rampage, destroying thirteen buildings, starting
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: with the cement plant. After that, it turned around and
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: went straight through the town hall. It turned and went
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: through a bank, and then it went through the police station,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and then the local newspaper, and then it also went
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: through a local hardware store and the house of the
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: former mayor. The police tried to box the bulldozer in
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: using their biggest vehicles, but it easily pushed them aside.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: SWAT team showed up and began engaging this vehicle with
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: their largest caliber armor piercing rounds, but none of them
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: went through it. Finally, one of the treads on the
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: bulldozer got stuck in a basement and it kind of
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: tilted the machine on its side and it couldn't go anywhere,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and then very shortly after that, the engine finally died.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: It would take authorities seven hours to finally cut through
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: the armor of this kill dozer, and when they looked inside,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: they found that Marvin was the one driving it, and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: he had taken his own life. Marvin had spent the
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: past year and a half building up this bulldozer specifically
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: so he could seek revenge on the zoning committee as
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: well as other town officials that he felt screwed him.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Marvin was the only fatality, but before he died he
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: caused over seven million dollars in damages. Here are some
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: real images of Marvin's kill dozer. On the evening of
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: December nineteenth, twenty sixteen, sixty two year old Russian ambassador
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Andrey Karlov was ushered into a famous art museum in Turkey. There,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Andre was going to deliver a speech at the opening
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: of an exhibition of Turkish photography that featured the Russian countryside.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Andre had been a Russian government employee for the past
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: forty years, spending much of his time in North Korea,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: but in twenty thirteen he took this post as the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: ambassador to Turkey. Although he was a seasoned diplomat, he
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: knew there was a lot riding on this visit. His
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: appearance there was following several days of protests by Turks
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: against Russian involvement in the Syrian Civil War. Andre was
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: there to ease the strain in Turkish Russian relations as
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: officials from both countries met to broker a ceasefire in Syria.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: As Andre made his way across the room, he had
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of things on his mind, but one thing
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: he wasn't concerned.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: About was his own safety.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: The museum had stated the art security cameras and everyone
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: who was going to be attending his speech had been.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Carefully screened and vetted.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Andre was also protected by his his own personal bodyguards.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: That were these men in dark suits that fanned out
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: around him as he stepped up to the microphone. The
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: bodyguard who stood directly behind him was twenty two year
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: old Melvit Altintosh. He was a Turkish native who for
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: two and a half years had served on an elite
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: riot police unit, and over the past year he had
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: been asked eight separate times to be on the personal
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: security detail of the Turkish President. Andre looked down at
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the podium at his notes, and then he looked up
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: at the room that was filled with journalists and dignitaries,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: and he composed himself.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: He cleared his voice and he began to speak.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Behind him, Meblt, the bodyguard, opened his jacket slightly and
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: continued staring at the back of Andre's head, and then,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: in one swift motion, he drew a pistol and fired
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: three shots into the ambassador's back. And then when the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: ambassador fell to the ground, Mevlt moved on top of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: him and fired four more.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Shots, killing him. Guests started screaming and running for cover.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Mebltt pointed his finger into the sky and yelled,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: do not forget a lepo, do not forget Syria. And
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: then he began walking around the exhibits, smashing the pictures
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: on the wall. Before Turkish security forces showed up, there
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: was a gunfight and Mevlt was killed. It would turn
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: out Mevlt was not a part of Andrey Karlov's security detail.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: He was actually off duty, but it used his police
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: credentials to get into the exhibit hall. His exact motive
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: for the assassination is unclear. Some think it was revenge
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: for Russia's targeting of rebel held areas in Aleppo. Others
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: say the shooting was designed to disrupt warming relations between
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Turkey and Russia. But regardless of why it happened, what
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the world remembers from this event is the award winning
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: photograph that was taken of mevlt immediately after he committed
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the attack.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Here is that photo. In the fall of twenty fifteen,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: twenty one year old.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Otto Warmbeer was a gifted student at the University of Virginia.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He had a passion for seeing new and faraway places,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and so one day when he was on campus and
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: he saw an ad for a trip going to one
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: of the most secretive places in the world, North Korea,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: he jumped at the opportunity to go. The tour was
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: being run by a group called the Young Pioneers, whose
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: slogan was we take you to places that your mother
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: would rather you stayed away from. But they promised their
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: tours were totally safe. Initially, Otto's parents were not too
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: keen on the idea of their son going to North Korea,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: but when they saw how excited he was about going
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: on the trip, they ultimately said, okay, we'll let you go.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: On December twenty nine, twenty fifteen, Auto met up with
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: the other ten members of this tour group at the airport.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: They all climbed inside of an old Soviet jet and
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: they took off for North Korea. Fifteen hours later, they
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: arrived at Pyongyang International Airport, and as soon as they
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: got off the plane, the North Korean border police came
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: right up to them, confiscated their cameras, and then checked
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: their phones for any subversive material. After a few tens minutes,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: they gave them their phones back and allowed them to leave.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: The group went straight to their hotel, and before they
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: went inside, they noticed a clearly anti American billboard right outside,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and it made the group very uneasy because they were
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: all American, but they collectively decided that this was just
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: part of the experience and they shouldn't be worried or
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: concerned about it. Before long, they had totally let their
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: guard down and they were out and enjoying.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: These sights and sounds of the capital city.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: At one point, Auto and some others even got into
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: a snowball fight with some North Korean children. By New
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Year's Eve, the group felt completely normal walking around North Korea,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and so they headed to this huge party at Kim
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Il Sung Square with thousands of other North Koreans, and
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: then after that was over, they headed back to their
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: hotel and continued to drink. The hotel they were staying
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: in was designed to entertain foreigners. In addition to their
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: bar and five restaurants in the lobby, they had a
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: massage parlor, a sauna, a bowling alley. I mean, this
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: group was totally living it up. The following morning, which
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: was the day of their departure from North Korea, Auto
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: was one of the last people of the group to
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: hand his passport to airport officials, and when he did,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: it seemed like they spent a lot of time looking
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: at it and then looking at Auto and then talking
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: to each other in Korean. And then at some point
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: two North Korean soldiers just appeared out of nowhere behind
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Auto tapped him on the shoulder. Auto turned around, and
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: they grabbed him by the arm and led him away.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: The others from the group that saw this happen would
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: say Auto didn't put up any resistance and didn't look scared.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: He just walked with them.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Later, North Korea would release grainy CCTV footage taken from
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: inside the hotel where Auto in the group was staying
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that showed this unidentifiable figure walking into a restricted area
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: pulling a poster off of the wall, and the North
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Koreans were saying that figure was Auto. After taking Auto
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: from the airport, North Korean officials said they found the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: poster that had been stolen in Auto's possession, and they
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: accused him of a very serious crime in North Korea,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: which is damaging or stealing any item that has the
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: picture or name of the North Korean leader on it.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Auto was sent to jail and the rest of his
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: group was told to leave.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Two months later, on February twenty ninth, the North Korean
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: government released a video that showed Auto walking into a
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: North Korean courtroom. His head is down and his hands
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: are cuffed. They walk him into the center of the
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: room and sit him down in front of this long
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: table and he's looking out to the sea of reporters
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: and courtroom officials, and he proceeds to confess to his crime.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: The way he describes what he did is so bizarre
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: that many people believe it was a forced confession scripted
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: by his interrogators. Auto says he put on his quietest boots,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: the best for sneaking, and then snuck his way into
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: the hotel where he stole the poster. He claimed a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: local Methodist church, a university's secret society, and the American
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: administration all collectively pushed him to do this. He said
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: his actions were intentionally designed to hurt the work, ethic
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and motivation of the Korean people, and he also said
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: he was impressed with the North Korean government's humanitarian treatment
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: of himself, considering he was a severe criminal. And then,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: after his nearly two minute long confession, he stands up
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and bows to the court and then appears to break
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: character and begs for forgiveness, and he's quickly ushered out.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: A month later, the North Korean court would convict Auto
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: and sentence him to fifteen years of hard labor, but
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: after seventeen months of intense political pressure, North Korea agreed
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: to release Auto and send him back to the United States.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Now to this point, nobody had had a chance to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: communicate with Auto while he was in prison, and so
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: when he was sent back, he was not the same Auto.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: He had suffered some unexplained head injury and was in
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: a coma. When Otto's parents saw him for the first time,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: they barely recognized him.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: They said it looked like his.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Lower teeth had been moved around with pliers, and they
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: found a large scar on his foot that they didn't recognize.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: North Korea denied any intentional mistreatment of Auto. They said
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: he fell into this coma after contracting bachulism, which is
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: a very rare form of food poisoning that.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Can be deadly.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Once Auto was back under American medical care, doctors did
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: everything they could to try to get him out of
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: this coma, but there was nothing they could do. He
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: was in a persistent vegetative state, and he had already
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: suffered severe brand damage, and so on June nineteenth, twenty seventeen,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: just six days after Auto was back in the United States,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: his parents made the heartbreaking decision to remove him from
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: life support, and he died shortly thereafter. To this day,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: no one really knows what actually happened to Auto. Here
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: is one of the final photos of Auto while he
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: was still alive and healthy, taken right after his strange confession.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: He's holding back tears and begging for mercy, but mercy
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: would not come.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: So that's going to do it. Guys.
