- 1:20Speaker 1: Man hearing that announcer that's the PBR announcers at round
- 1:24Speaker 1: one of the Syracuse Velocity tour makes me feel like
- 1:27Speaker 1: I'm right there watching Ouncey ride the rodeo. What a star?
- 1:34Speaker 1: What more do we know about him? Taking us star friends?
- 1:37Speaker 1: At Fox thirteen, he was best known in the bullwriting
- 1:40Speaker 1: community and among his loved ones as Ouncey Mitchell. Mitchell
- 1:45Speaker 1: told his best friend and cousin Ezekiel, this was going
- 1:48Speaker 1: to be his year. His career in professional bullwriting was skyrocketing.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Went from relatively unknown on the standings until within a
- 1:56Speaker 1: matter of months he was twenty third in the world.
- 2:00Speaker 1: The Professional bull Riders Organization released a statement saying, quote
- 2:04Speaker 1: how else he got his name because he was born small.
- 2:07Speaker 1: He grew up to compete with a huge heart. Born small.
- 2:13Speaker 1: You know dynamite comes in tiny packages, doesn't it? And
- 2:17Speaker 1: this guy shot to the sky like a shooting star. Okay,
- 2:22Speaker 1: we know he was twenty third in the world as
- 2:26Speaker 1: a rodeo star, but what more do we know about
- 2:29Speaker 1: rodeo star outside take a listen to Emily Tenser. He
- 2:34Speaker 1: was a quiet cowboy, but his actions were loud, and
- 2:37Speaker 1: so was the impact he left in the arena and
- 2:40Speaker 1: on his family and every time I put my hand
- 2:43Speaker 1: in a bull rope. Now being him right there in
- 2:46Speaker 1: the back of my mind. He was a once in
- 2:47Speaker 1: a lifetime person and a family member and frand and
- 2:52Speaker 1: more so a brother. Just days ago he called his
- 2:57Speaker 1: daughter and told her that he would be home in
- 2:59Speaker 1: two weeks with a new puppy. She already picked out
- 3:02Speaker 1: a name for it. So not just a rodeo star
- 3:05Speaker 1: twenty three in the world, but a friend and a father,
- 3:13Speaker 1: a father who thinks to bring home a little puppy
- 3:16Speaker 1: to his baby girl just to make her smile. So
- 3:20Speaker 1: how does a rodeo star end up dead? Not getting
- 3:24Speaker 1: thrown off a bucking bronco, but dead in a pool
- 3:30Speaker 1: of blood? How does that happen? Take a listen now
- 3:33Speaker 1: to our friends at Fox thirteen and KUTV two. The
- 3:37Speaker 1: professional bull rider from Texas is dead after being shot
- 3:41Speaker 1: in a domestic violence incident in Salt Lake last night.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Police say the man rode in last night's rodeo at
- 3:48Speaker 1: the Utah State Fair. The shooting happened early this morning
- 3:51Speaker 1: in the ballpark area near nine hundred South and two
- 3:55Speaker 1: hundred West. The professional bull Riders confirming just this afternoon
- 3:59Speaker 1: the Demetrius Allen was one of their cowboys. He was
- 4:02Speaker 1: perhaps best known to fans, though by his nickname Alency Mitchell,
- 4:06Speaker 1: the twenty seven year old from Texas competed in rodeos
- 4:09Speaker 1: all across the country. In fact, he took part in
- 4:11Speaker 1: the Days of forty seven rodeo here in Salt Lake
- 4:14Speaker 1: City back in twenty eighteen, and he'd already competed in
- 4:17Speaker 1: several rodeo events this year. This guy has affected the
- 4:22Speaker 1: entire community, in fact, the rodeo community, not just there
- 4:27Speaker 1: where he's from or where he died, but across the country.
- 4:31Speaker 1: So as the shock and grief rocks the community. I mean,
- 4:36Speaker 1: I don't know how many of you have ever been
- 4:39Speaker 1: to a rodeo, but I gotta tell you there's nothing
- 4:43Speaker 1: like the rodeo. There's a country song dedicated to they
- 4:49Speaker 1: call the thing the rodeo. Let's see the blood and
- 4:53Speaker 1: the guts, the tears and the something, the gold and
- 4:58Speaker 1: the buckle. You get a big gold ule when you
- 5:00Speaker 1: win a rodeo match. There's just nothing like it. And
- 5:04Speaker 1: the stars of the rodeo are like rock stars like
- 5:10Speaker 1: Jagger or the Beatles, or Taylor Swift or Lady Gaga
- 5:15Speaker 1: or Britney Spears. Their stars and their sphere take a
- 5:19Speaker 1: listen now to our Friensy KHOU eleven fans and the
- 5:24Speaker 1: Professional Bull Writers Association family heartbroken over the news, tributes
- 5:28Speaker 1: are now pouring in, including from the CEO of PBR,
- 5:31Speaker 1: who posted on social media that the nickname Outcy was
- 5:34Speaker 1: given to him because he was born small, but that
- 5:36Speaker 1: he grew up to compete with a huge heart. Mitchell
- 5:39Speaker 1: was born in Fresno. According to the Wrangler Network, he
- 5:42Speaker 1: got his first steer at five years old. He also
- 5:45Speaker 1: had a firefighting degree from Houston Community College. Got his
- 5:49Speaker 1: first steer at five years old. You know, I remember
- 5:55Speaker 1: the first time I took the twins to a bull ranch,
- 5:59Speaker 1: and they and myself will never forget it. Once you
- 6:05Speaker 1: have that affinity, it seemingly never goes away again. You
- 6:10Speaker 1: were just listening to our friends at KHOU, and now
- 6:15Speaker 1: the question becomes, what happened to Ouncy? Why did he
- 6:20Speaker 1: die in a pool of blood? Take a listen to
- 6:24Speaker 1: our friends at crime online dot com. Several rounds were
- 6:29Speaker 1: fired through the glass door and window of the apartment
- 6:31Speaker 1: where Alan was staying. At least one round struck Alan
- 6:35Speaker 1: in the torso. The investigation reveals the bullet impacts appeared
- 6:39Speaker 1: to be coming from inside to outside. Police also say
- 6:43Speaker 1: there's no indication of forced entry or even an attempt.
- 6:46Speaker 1: There was blood evidence outside the apartment, but no observable
- 6:50Speaker 1: blood inside. No observable blood inside, blood outside the apartment.
- 6:56Speaker 1: What exactly happened? We've got an star panel to make
- 7:01Speaker 1: sense of what we know right now. In the shooting
- 7:03Speaker 1: death of Aunci Mitchell aka Demetrius Omar Allen with a
- 7:10Speaker 1: little five year old girl KSL dot com. Actually, thank
- 7:15Speaker 1: you so much for being with us now. I understand
- 7:18Speaker 1: that he was in Utah just to compete. Is that correct?
- 7:22Speaker 1: He is not from Utah trick and this was the
- 7:25Speaker 1: Utah State Fair? Is that correct? Describe the Utah State
- 7:30Speaker 1: Fair for me? What is that? Is it just a
- 7:32Speaker 1: rodeo or is are there rides in a ferris wheel
- 7:35Speaker 1: and often airs and funnel cakes? What can you tell
- 7:38Speaker 1: me about the fair? Yes? And the Utah Steat Fair

- 7:47Speaker 1: fair the traditional fair activitis um like live dot competition,
- 7:52Speaker 1: rodeo rights, carnival games, just everything that you would expected
- 7:58Speaker 1: to scare and it's a activity for people across the
- 8:02Speaker 1: seat of the year. I understands Outsy Allen had traveled
- 8:08Speaker 1: all the way from Houston to compete at the rodeo
- 8:11Speaker 1: in the Utah State Fair when he got there, now
- 8:15Speaker 1: he was at the fair. Uh with an on off girlfriend?
- 8:20Speaker 1: Is that correct? Yes, so they were at the fair together.
- 8:25Speaker 1: Limited question, Ashley MLA. Do we know where he went
- 8:29Speaker 1: after he competed? Where did he go? We know all
- 8:33Speaker 1: Place has said so far as they went to a
- 8:36Speaker 1: bar after going to the seire together, and we don't
- 8:39Speaker 1: know which fire that I would assume this they where
- 8:43Speaker 1: if they were in the Ballpark neighborhood, that that would
- 8:45Speaker 1: be somewhere downtown, which is where where there are many
- 8:50Speaker 1: bars that are popular in the area. You know. Joining
- 8:54Speaker 1: me right now. In addition to investigative reporter Ashley MLA

- 9:18Speaker 1: this case, you wouldn't be half wrong. The way you
- 9:21Speaker 1: can find Michelin is at Michelin Lawgroup dot Com. Brad Micklin,
- 9:25Speaker 1: How many times do I have to say it? Nothing
- 9:29Speaker 1: good happens after midnight? Number one? And how many cases
- 9:35Speaker 1: start at a bar? Brad Micklin, Now, don't just take
- 9:39Speaker 1: off your defense out for just a minute. Let's just
- 9:41Speaker 1: get real. How many murders, aggravators, salts, rapes, sidemy, you

- 9:52Speaker 1: knocked down, drag out, agasalt weapon, fist start at a bar?
- 9:59Speaker 1: Brad Micklin. I'm sure nance countless of them do. But
- 10:02Speaker 1: this didn't end at the bar. This ended at a home.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Did I ask you about a home? Listen? I've got
- 10:09Speaker 1: one hour to analyze what I know, think about it,
- 10:12Speaker 1: and I know you wouldn't do this, and I wouldn't
- 10:14Speaker 1: want to do this. But what if you got hand
- 10:17Speaker 1: in a case file one hour before you were to
- 10:20Speaker 1: strike a jury one hour? I don't know why, maybe
- 10:23Speaker 1: your trial partner fell out. I don't know, but I
- 10:27Speaker 1: am asking you. Just pretend you're on cross exam. Okay,
- 10:32Speaker 1: Brad Macklin, how does it feel to be in the
- 10:34Speaker 1: hot seat? You've had so many people on a cross exam,
- 10:36Speaker 1: You're no stranger to a courtroom. How many times generally
- 10:42Speaker 1: have you seen all sorts of cases start at a bar? Thousands, thousands,
- 10:47Speaker 1: not tens of thousands. I mean, you pour alcohol into
- 10:51Speaker 1: a situation and everything ignites. You know what, who may
- 10:55Speaker 1: know an answer better than you and I do to
- 10:57Speaker 1: that is doctor Tim Gallagher, or medical examiner for the
- 11:01Speaker 1: entire state of Florida. Man, you're a busy pathcaremed dot
- 11:07Speaker 1: com lecturer, University Florida Medical School founder and host. Listen
- 11:13Speaker 1: to this international Forensic Medicine death Investigation conference. Wouldn't you
- 11:19Speaker 1: guys like to go to that a death investigation conference? Okay,
- 11:26Speaker 1: let me put my dreams aside for a moment, doctor
- 11:28Speaker 1: Tim Gallagher, Doctor Gallagher, how many bar fights turn into murder? Oh?
- 11:33Speaker 1: My goodness, so many? I mean, like the officer said,
- 11:38Speaker 1: the lawyer said, thousands, thousands of them. I mean it
- 11:42Speaker 1: takes up a very large portion of our day, you know,
- 11:45Speaker 1: sorting through all the alcoholics and all the alcoholic related incidences, assaults, fights,
- 11:51Speaker 1: et cetera like that. And it's also a large part
- 11:54Speaker 1: of my testimony when I do go to court time
- 12:08Speaker 1: stories with Nancy Grace. Okay, doctor Gallagher, let me just
- 12:17Speaker 1: veer off the garden path for one moment and take
- 12:21Speaker 1: you down the rabbit hole. Could you just give me
- 12:24Speaker 1: a thumbnail of the types of murders you've seen that
- 12:30Speaker 1: result from bar fights? And when you see this in
- 12:32Speaker 1: the movies, I know you may think it's cliche that
- 12:36Speaker 1: all of a sudden a fight breaks out. That is
- 12:39Speaker 1: not just in the movies. That's real. So what kind
- 12:43Speaker 1: of deaths, what different kind of deaths have you seen
- 12:46Speaker 1: as a result of bar fights? Gallagher? Well, let me, yeah,
- 12:49Speaker 1: let me give you a ridiculous one, just to let
- 12:52Speaker 1: you know how. Okay, wait, let me get all suddle
- 12:54Speaker 1: and have a sip of my tea. Go ahead, go okay.
- 12:58Speaker 1: So I was a couple of years ago we had
- 13:01Speaker 1: a bar related fight where one brother shot the other
- 13:04Speaker 1: brother because one of them insisted the dog like them better.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Oh I'm so happy, little do you know? The four
- 13:12Speaker 1: of us fight about which one fat boy likes the
- 13:14Speaker 1: most all the time, But not in the bar. So
- 13:16Speaker 1: nobody's drunk. But you don't deal with twelve gay shotgun? No, no,
- 13:21Speaker 1: we do not. The only time we touch a gun
- 13:24Speaker 1: is when we're doing practice shooting with the scouts. The scouts. Okay, right,
- 13:29Speaker 1: that's some of the ridiculousness that we have to deal
- 13:32Speaker 1: with here on a very regular basis. Have you ever
- 13:34Speaker 1: seen anybody cut with a beer bottle? A broken beer bottle? Oh,
- 13:38Speaker 1: we've had that. We've had someone get thrown to a
- 13:42Speaker 1: plate glass window and then somebody else pick up a
- 13:44Speaker 1: shard of that plate glass and then stabbed them with that. Well,
- 13:48Speaker 1: you just have all the fun, don't you join you?
- 13:53Speaker 1: I think in the courtroom was exciting. Did you hear
- 13:55Speaker 1: that Mikelin through a plate glass window, picks up a
- 13:59Speaker 1: shard of glass and then stabs the guy. Dad, I
- 14:01Speaker 1: guess it was a guy. Okay, let me get out
- 14:03Speaker 1: of the rabbit hole and back to Ouncy Mitchell, just
- 14:06Speaker 1: twenty seven years old with a four year old daughter. Guys,
- 14:12Speaker 1: take a listen now to our cut three. This is
- 14:15Speaker 1: Emily Tents at Box thirteen. Lashawn Bagley, a twenty one
- 14:19Speaker 1: year old woman here in Salt Lake City. She was
- 14:21Speaker 1: arrested earlier today. The victim's real name is Demetrius Allen,
- 14:26Speaker 1: but he was best known in the bull riding community
- 14:29Speaker 1: and among his loved ones as Ouncey Mitchell. He leaves
- 14:33Speaker 1: behind a four year old daughter. Sunday night, Ouncy Mitchell
- 14:37Speaker 1: was in Salt Lake City doing what he loved one
- 14:40Speaker 1: last time. Hours later, he'd lose his life after police
- 14:44Speaker 1: saying on again, off again girlfriend shot him through a
- 14:47Speaker 1: glass store. Okay, right there, joining me, Doctor Mindy B. Mechanic,
- 14:53Speaker 1: professor's psychology emeredis cal State University, Fullerton, and she focuses
- 14:59Speaker 1: on trauma. I'm a victimization, intimate partner violence, sex assault,
- 15:03Speaker 1: and stalking. Wow, do we need a shrink? Doctor mchannic.
- 15:09Speaker 1: You know what just grabbed me When I was listening
- 15:11Speaker 1: to our friends. I believe that was at Fox thirteen.
- 15:15Speaker 1: On again, off again? How many times have I told
- 15:20Speaker 1: men and women there is a reason you broke up
- 15:24Speaker 1: the first time. Don't go back for seconds. Okay, don't now.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Once in a while, you see like a second and
- 15:32Speaker 1: you remarry somebody. You see it work out, like Marie
- 15:35Speaker 1: Osmond Jack Mary Osmen went back and married her high
- 15:39Speaker 1: school sweetheart. They're still together. It does happen. But when
- 15:43Speaker 1: I hear on again, off again in connection to our
- 15:47Speaker 1: murder case, what do you make of the on and
- 15:52Speaker 1: off relationship status? Doctor Mechanic, Well, it's hard to know
- 15:57Speaker 1: without knowing more facts about their relationship. One possibility is
- 16:02Speaker 1: that the relationship was very tumultuous, that there was some
- 16:07Speaker 1: kind of abuse, violence, fighting, that sort of thing. But
- 16:11Speaker 1: there could also be more benign explanations given the fact
- 16:15Speaker 1: that he lived in Texas and evidently she lived in
- 16:19Speaker 1: Salt Lake City, and so it's possible that something as
- 16:22Speaker 1: simple as the distance. So I being trained as a
- 16:26Speaker 1: social scientist, I tried to think more in terms of
- 16:29Speaker 1: hypothesis testing and what are all the possibilities, and not
- 16:32Speaker 1: to go in a direction of making assumptions. But certainly
- 16:36Speaker 1: tumultuousness was the first thing that came to mind, given
- 16:39Speaker 1: that we're talking about a domestic commic side. You're right,
- 16:42Speaker 1: and a long distance relationship had so much stress on it.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Plus there's a baby involved in this whole scenario. It's
- 16:49Speaker 1: got a four year old child. Were you about to
- 16:51Speaker 1: say something else on the mechanic, Yeah, I was going
- 16:53Speaker 1: to say. I work in a lot of domestic comic
- 16:55Speaker 1: side cases, and when women commit domestic comic side more
- 17:00Speaker 1: often than not, it's in the context of them having
- 17:03Speaker 1: experienced abuse in that relationship themselves. Now, I'm not saying
- 17:07Speaker 1: that happened in this case, and so if it didn't,
- 17:10Speaker 1: it would be a little bit more a novelist. But
- 17:13Speaker 1: one thing that does trigger domest of homicide against women
- 17:17Speaker 1: is separation or separation violence. And so to the extent
- 17:21Speaker 1: that what I heard here in this case was it
- 17:24Speaker 1: sounded like perhaps another breakup because he was heading over
- 17:27Speaker 1: to her apartment to collect some of his belongings. So
- 17:31Speaker 1: it's possible bullet signaled goodbye, this is over and I'm
- 17:35Speaker 1: you know, and perhaps her thought was, well, if I
- 17:38Speaker 1: can't have you, nobody will forget it. I won't accept that.
- 17:42Speaker 1: So that's another possible theory for what went through my
- 17:45Speaker 1: mind when I heard the facts of this case. Actually
- 17:47Speaker 1: am I joining us investigating reporter K. S L Actually, again,
- 17:52Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. What do we know
- 17:54Speaker 1: about that night? So we knew that they after they
- 17:57Speaker 1: went to guitar, at some point they got into an
- 18:00Speaker 1: argument and she lust on her own and he found
- 18:04Speaker 1: your right with someone else. And please have not said
- 18:07Speaker 1: who that person was, whether it was someone he knew,
- 18:10Speaker 1: or someone he met at the bar, or even a
- 18:12Speaker 1: right share service. That he let her know that he
- 18:16Speaker 1: was going to take up his belongings. From her house
- 18:19Speaker 1: hold on just a second. When you say he let
- 18:21Speaker 1: her know, you're talking about Denise Bagley, Lashawan Denise Bagley.
- 18:27Speaker 1: So is Bagley the on off girlfriend? That's what please see? Okay,
- 18:33Speaker 1: so we're talking about Lashawn Bagley is the on off girlfriend. Guys,
- 18:38Speaker 1: take a listen to our cut forty one. This is
- 18:40Speaker 1: our friends at crime online. To meet Fris Allen and
- 18:43Speaker 1: Lashawn Bagley went to a downtown Salt Lake City bar
- 18:46Speaker 1: after the Utah State Fair. The couple got into an
- 18:49Speaker 1: argument and Bagley went home without Allen. Police say Alan
- 18:54Speaker 1: got a ride to the apartment to pick up his things.
- 18:57Speaker 1: During the drive, he reportedly tried to call and text
- 19:00Speaker 1: Bagley and he was coming. According to the police at
- 19:03Speaker 1: the day that once Allan and the person who drove
- 19:05Speaker 1: him arrived, they both knocked on the door, saying they
- 19:08Speaker 1: wanted to get Allan's belongings. The woman drove back to
- 19:12Speaker 1: her apartment. Then, police say a witness and Allan showed
- 19:15Speaker 1: up to the apartment to grab his things. That's when
- 19:18Speaker 1: police say twenty one year old Lashawn Bagley fired several
- 19:21Speaker 1: shots through the front door, hitting Allen in the torso.
- 19:25Speaker 1: He died from his injuries. Police arrested twenty one year
- 19:28Speaker 1: old Lashawn Bagley booked into jail on murder and felony
- 19:32Speaker 1: discharge of a firearm good gravy. It's just like Ashley
- 19:36Speaker 1: m Way from KSL is telling us, joining me right now,
- 19:40Speaker 1: Chief deputy with the Pitt County Sheriff's Office in Greenville,
- 19:43Speaker 1: specializing in domestic violence cases. There is no way this
- 19:48Speaker 1: woman is going to be able to claim self defense.
- 19:51Speaker 1: I'll tell you why, John Guard, because she shot through
- 19:55Speaker 1: the door. Alsie wasn't even through the door according to
- 20:00Speaker 1: the witness, and I'm sure cell phones data will show
- 20:04Speaker 1: this if it's true. Tex said and called her in
- 20:07Speaker 1: a route to say, look, I'm coming to get my stuff.
- 20:10Speaker 1: So she's not going to be able to claim self defense.
- 20:12Speaker 1: The door was closed. Well, based off what's been released
- 20:15Speaker 1: so far in my review of everything, it would be difficult.
- 20:18Speaker 1: But again it's it's based on what's known and what's
- 20:21Speaker 1: been released stuck. Hasn't been an overwhelming amount of information
- 20:25Speaker 1: released by the police. There just really the basics. But
- 20:31Speaker 1: based on what we know now, yeah, one would assume
- 20:34Speaker 1: that would be somewhat of a difficult argument. N Uphill
- 20:38Speaker 1: will buy an along lap. Yeah, let's take a listen
- 20:40Speaker 1: to our cut number forty our friends at crime Online.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Police in Salt Lake City received a call just after
- 20:47Speaker 1: midnight on Monday about a man shot outside an apartment.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Responding officers found Demetrius O. Marletti fallen outside an apartment
- 20:55Speaker 1: with at least one gunshot wound. Alan did not live
- 20:58Speaker 1: at the apartment where he died. Beliefe say. The professional
- 21:01Speaker 1: bull rider was in Salt Lake City to compete in
- 21:03Speaker 1: an event at the Utah State Fair. He had arranged
- 21:07Speaker 1: to stay with his on again, off again girlfriend. After
- 21:10Speaker 1: the fair, Allan and his friend went to a downtown
- 21:13Speaker 1: bar but got into an argument. Alan went to the
- 21:16Speaker 1: apartment to get his things when shots rang out. Okay,
- 21:19Speaker 1: Brad m. Micklin, high profile lawyer joining us from the
- 21:24Speaker 1: Micklin Law Group. Brad, no way, this woman this on
- 21:30Speaker 1: off again girlfriend. Oh hey, actually, mway, is she the
- 21:34Speaker 1: mother of the little girl's Okay? So that's another woman,
- 21:38Speaker 1: and this is the girlfriend since he had the baby. Okay,
- 21:42Speaker 1: So he's got the little girl and the mother of
- 21:46Speaker 1: the little girl is Natitia Haywood, I believe. And then
- 21:52Speaker 1: we've got this woman, Lashawn Bagley. Okay, got it back
- 21:56Speaker 1: to you, Brad Micklin. Even with your or courtroom skills,
- 22:01Speaker 1: there's no way this one is going to pull off
- 22:03Speaker 1: self defense. She shot through a door. That's like they
- 22:05Speaker 1: do in the movies. Remember shooting through the door. I
- 22:10Speaker 1: mean the guy wasn't even through the door, for Pete's
- 22:12Speaker 1: sake before she unloaded a barrage of bullets. Yeah. I
- 22:15Speaker 1: certainly hope you're right, Nancy. I mean, unfortunately, we never
- 22:18Speaker 1: know what a jury's got to decide, but I'd be
- 22:21Speaker 1: hard pressed to believe that anybody would believe that this
- 22:24Speaker 1: was self defense or even a domestic violence homicide. It's
- 22:27Speaker 1: nothing short of murder. Brad Micklin, You know you keep
- 22:30Speaker 1: talking like that and Doli Shaun Denise Bagley's not going
- 22:33Speaker 1: to hire you. How could she possibly come up with
- 22:39Speaker 1: a defense in this case. He told her he was
- 22:41Speaker 1: coming to get his things, and it's pretty much like
- 22:44Speaker 1: doctor Mechanic hypothesized, he's coming to get his things to
- 22:49Speaker 1: get the hay out of Dodge and she's like, yo, no,
- 22:53Speaker 1: you're not taking your things in leaving. I don't care
- 22:56Speaker 1: if you are a rodeo star. I can't have you
- 23:00Speaker 1: nobody's going to have you. And when he comes to
- 23:02Speaker 1: the door, she knows he's coming. He's called, he's left messages,
- 23:06Speaker 1: he's texted. She unloads a hail of bullets and kills him.
- 23:12Speaker 1: It's very clear to me, what do you do with that? Well, well,
- 23:15Speaker 1: if I had to, unfortunately represent her, I would look
- 23:19Speaker 1: to the cycle of violence. Was there her significant past
- 23:24Speaker 1: violence in this relationship? Was she raised in abusive relationships,
- 23:28Speaker 1: even if it's just to negate her intent, her ability
- 23:31Speaker 1: to control her actions. If she was a longstanding victim
- 23:34Speaker 1: of serious violence in much of the buy her actions.
- 23:37Speaker 1: But I don't feel that way. Do you have even
- 23:40Speaker 1: a shred of evidence that she was a domestic violence victim?
- 23:47Speaker 1: Even a shred? No. I was disappointed that they even
- 23:51Speaker 1: labeled this immediately as a domestic violence homicide, because just
- 23:55Speaker 1: because you're in an intimate relationship and there's a violence
- 23:58Speaker 1: doesn't mean your domestic violence victim. I think that's a
- 24:01Speaker 1: very unique type of relationship. And this kind of label
- 24:05Speaker 1: causes us, or will cause us, to look at Amsie.
- 24:09Speaker 1: What did he do something wrong? Was he abus it?
- 24:13Speaker 1: He's the victim? And if we start looking to her
- 24:15Speaker 1: and say, well, why did she do this? Because it
- 24:18Speaker 1: was domestic violence, we lose the fact that he was
- 24:20Speaker 1: a victim of a vicious shooting. To doctor Tim Gallagher,
- 24:23Speaker 1: a medical examiner for the entire state of Florida, Doctor Gallagher,
- 24:27Speaker 1: I'm trying to imagine what type you know. You don't
- 24:30Speaker 1: win a football game, a baseball game, a basketball game,
- 24:35Speaker 1: a jury trial on your skills alone. You if you
- 24:39Speaker 1: want to win, you have to anticipate what the other
- 24:42Speaker 1: side is going to do and then destroy it before
- 24:45Speaker 1: it happens. You gotta think, You gotta think, what are
- 24:49Speaker 1: they going to say, what are they going to do?
- 24:51Speaker 1: How can I fight that? How can I stop it?
- 24:52Speaker 1: How can I foil it before it even happens. So
- 24:55Speaker 1: in this case, I'm imagining she's going to claim some
- 24:58Speaker 1: kind of self defen it's climbs and kind of battered
- 25:01Speaker 1: women's climb, whether it's true or not, and she might
- 25:05Speaker 1: try to climb she was not the shooter. That some
- 25:10Speaker 1: money on the outside of the house did it. But
- 25:13Speaker 1: is there a possibility, doctor Tim Gallagher, that the bullets
- 25:19Speaker 1: may have a splinter or some type of wood debris
- 25:24Speaker 1: on them. Well, from my understanding, the door was made
- 25:28Speaker 1: from glass. That's right, So we can very well inspect
- 25:33Speaker 1: the nose of the bullet for glass. Typically in full
- 25:37Speaker 1: jacketed bullets, you know you will not find it because
- 25:40Speaker 1: the soft part of the bullet is covered in brass,
- 25:44Speaker 1: which is a hard metal. But if it's an exposed
- 25:46Speaker 1: lead nose of the bullet, it'll often pick up the
- 25:50Speaker 1: glass and we can find that in the lead core
- 25:54Speaker 1: of the bullet. What do you mean by by full jacketed, Well,
- 25:57Speaker 1: the bullet is lead. It's made from a very soft
- 26:03Speaker 1: metal called lead, and lead deforms very easily, especially when
- 26:08Speaker 1: you're loading it into the gun when you're storing it,
- 26:11Speaker 1: so you want to protect that lead, and so you
- 26:13Speaker 1: put a coating of brass or copper or some harder
- 26:18Speaker 1: metal over it so the lead core doesn't get damaged.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Then when you fire that bullet, the outer core of
- 26:27Speaker 1: the metal, which is very thin, will break away and
- 26:31Speaker 1: then it'll expose the lead once it goes into the body,
- 26:34Speaker 1: and then that lead will do its damage within the body.
- 26:38Speaker 1: You want to find really interesting, Doctor Mindy B. Mechanic
- 26:43Speaker 1: joining US California State University, Fullerton. He didn't say, watch out, b,
- 26:49Speaker 1: I'm coming over to beat your a double ass. He said,
- 26:53Speaker 1: I'm coming over, get my stuff. I'm out of here.
- 26:56Speaker 1: That is what the witness says. That is what I
- 26:58Speaker 1: believe the cell phone that's just will say if they
- 27:01Speaker 1: are properly subpoenaed and taken from the iCloud hello, please
- 27:08Speaker 1: hear me police. So for her to claim any type
- 27:13Speaker 1: of self defense or she was scared, unless there is
- 27:17Speaker 1: some record of domestic assault, which we do not have
- 27:21Speaker 1: in this case on Aunci, I think it's very clear
- 27:25Speaker 1: she didn't want them to take a stuff and leave.
- 27:28Speaker 1: She didn't want the fight to be over. Doctor Mechanic, Well,
- 27:31Speaker 1: that is how it's appearing at this point. It doesn't
- 27:34Speaker 1: seem like there is any evidence that we heard so
- 27:36Speaker 1: far of any type of physical fight or any type
- 27:40Speaker 1: of violence that was proximal or preceding her shooting the gun.
- 27:45Speaker 1: It sounds like there was there was a long period
- 27:47Speaker 1: of time and that what she knew was he was
- 27:50Speaker 1: coming to take his stuff and leave. So that's why
- 27:54Speaker 1: my mind started going towards maybe this is an act
- 27:56Speaker 1: of separation violence that she was unwilling to accept the term.
- 28:00Speaker 1: She was saying, what is that? A separation violence? Just
- 28:03Speaker 1: focuses on people using violence in a relationship because they
- 28:09Speaker 1: refuse to accept the other person ending their relationship or
- 28:13Speaker 1: leaving them and moving on. And so instead of saying, hey,
- 28:17Speaker 1: it's okay, we both move on, they commit violence. The
- 28:20Speaker 1: violent acts often homicide, you know, to express their their
- 28:25Speaker 1: rage and their unwillingness to accept the other person's decision
- 28:28Speaker 1: to move on. Doctor Mechanic, I hear what you're saying
- 28:31Speaker 1: about separation violence. Heard of this phenomenon before, but I
- 28:37Speaker 1: bet it's got a psychological label. When you're in an
- 28:42Speaker 1: argument with someone and the other person just leaves for
- 28:48Speaker 1: some reason that infuriates the other party. They don't want
- 28:53Speaker 1: the fight to be over. What is that dynamic? It's control, right,
- 28:58Speaker 1: it's not accepting the other person's autonomy, agency independence to
- 29:03Speaker 1: say hey, I'm whatever, I'm walking out the door, I'm
- 29:06Speaker 1: ending this conversation. So the person is basically exerting control
- 29:10Speaker 1: and saying I won't accept you doing what you're doing.
- 29:14Speaker 1: I'm going to control this situation. You know. We always hear,
- 29:18Speaker 1: based on statistics that the most dangerous time for a
- 29:21Speaker 1: battered woman in a battering relationship is when she finally
- 29:25Speaker 1: tries to leave. Yes, but guess what as much as
- 29:30Speaker 1: I scream from the hilltops about domestic violence on women today,
- 29:35Speaker 1: that she is on the other foot. I want you
- 29:39Speaker 1: to take a listen to a male victim of domestic
- 29:45Speaker 1: battering and a lot more by his female partner. This
- 29:49Speaker 1: is Alex Skill on GMB. Listen to our cut fourteen.
- 29:54Speaker 1: So let's start at the beginning of your story. Because
- 29:56Speaker 1: you met her at college in twenty twelve. You're both sixteen.
- 30:00Speaker 1: This was your first relationship. What was she like? How
- 30:03Speaker 1: did that relationship begin? It was fine, it was good,
- 30:06Speaker 1: and it was it seemed normal and more from Alex
- 30:12Speaker 1: still on GMB, starting with our cut fifteen, and should
- 30:16Speaker 1: say she was she is an intelligent woman, but she
- 30:20Speaker 1: used that against you. Yeah, she was academically very bright.
- 30:24Speaker 1: She got a lot of a's, went to university obviously,
- 30:26Speaker 1: and I wasn't of that type. And I think she
- 30:28Speaker 1: used that quite a lot. In what way? What did
- 30:30Speaker 1: she do just to belittle me? So you're dumb, you're stupid,
- 30:34Speaker 1: you're vic all the time? Sixteen, You move in together
- 30:37Speaker 1: and this is where the physical abuse starts. And I
- 30:41Speaker 1: mean this, this started off where she'd be hitting you
- 30:44Speaker 1: over the head with bottles and yeah, yeah, and knives
- 30:47Speaker 1: were used also in what way? How did she I
- 30:51Speaker 1: was lying in the bed and she would wait till
- 30:54Speaker 1: a sleep and just hit me on the head of
- 30:55Speaker 1: a bottle. I managed to get rid of the bottle,
- 30:57Speaker 1: and then she moved on to a hammer, started hitting
- 31:01Speaker 1: me with hammers everywhere like my shin's arms, head and
- 31:07Speaker 1: then I managed to throw that hammer in the field opposite.
- 31:11Speaker 1: So far it's over. But then everything she could find
- 31:14Speaker 1: to hit me with. From bits of wood crime stories
- 31:30Speaker 1: with Nancy Grace, I want to go out to Brad
- 31:36Speaker 1: in Nicklin High Profile Law. You're a managing member of
- 31:39Speaker 1: the Nicklin Law Group. His specialty is men's divorce, custody
- 31:44Speaker 1: and family law. The phenomena of a man being the
- 31:50Speaker 1: domestic violence victim at the hand of a woman is
- 31:54Speaker 1: not unheard of. No, it's not unheard of. I mean
- 31:57Speaker 1: it's always been there. There are just as many abused
- 32:00Speaker 1: as violent women as there are men. Recognition in't believe that. Well,
- 32:04Speaker 1: how can you say that? That's the bias that we
- 32:06Speaker 1: all face. When a man in a heterosexual relationship calls
- 32:10Speaker 1: the police and says I'm being abused, more often than not,
- 32:13Speaker 1: the police will eager arrest him or tell him to
- 32:17Speaker 1: leave and let it cool down. There's a bias in
- 32:20Speaker 1: our system or legal system. There's a bias with police
- 32:22Speaker 1: departments that men aren't victim and that makes it harder
- 32:25Speaker 1: for men to report it, to leave it, to separate
- 32:29Speaker 1: themselves from the violence, because they're faced with such difficulties
- 32:32Speaker 1: getting out. Okay, see, I think you, Brad Micklin, who
- 32:39Speaker 1: is a stellar trial lawyer, want a lot of cases.
- 32:42Speaker 1: I think you lose a little bit of credibility when
- 32:44Speaker 1: you try to tell the world there are just as
- 32:46Speaker 1: many male victims of domestic violence as there are female.
- 32:50Speaker 1: That's just very simply not true statistics. That's what I said.
- 32:55Speaker 1: Oh okay, I said there are just as many violent
- 32:59Speaker 1: and abusive women as there are violent and abusive men.
- 33:01Speaker 1: That's like saying that there are no abusive lawyers or
- 33:05Speaker 1: doctors are they're good in bed and all people on
- 33:08Speaker 1: all races and all genders and all occupations. To say
- 33:11Speaker 1: that men are less often victims is the bias and
- 33:15Speaker 1: the problem that our system needs to address. Okay, I'm
- 33:17Speaker 1: going to go to National statistics and maybe you know
- 33:21Speaker 1: more than the Department of Justice, but on an average
- 33:25Speaker 1: twenty people per minute physically abused by an intimate partner.
- 33:29Speaker 1: In the US, more than ten million women and men,
- 33:34Speaker 1: one in four women and one in nine men experience
- 33:39Speaker 1: domestic violence, Doctor Mindy Mechanics, is that your experience that
- 33:44Speaker 1: there are just as many men victims of domestic violence
- 33:48Speaker 1: as women. So I don't want to speak from personal anecdote.
- 33:51Speaker 1: I prefer to rely on data. So what I'll tell
- 33:54Speaker 1: you is that research has looked at this quite extensively,
- 33:58Speaker 1: and where we find gender parody, meaning women and men
- 34:02Speaker 1: engage in about the same rates of intimate partner abuse
- 34:06Speaker 1: is when we look at low level acts of violence,
- 34:10Speaker 1: so that would be things like pushing, slapping, shoving, and
- 34:14Speaker 1: verbal abuse yelling. That kind of thing actually is engaged
- 34:18Speaker 1: in and roughly equal measure. But the kind of serious,
- 34:22Speaker 1: injurious violence that caused women caused in people to seek
- 34:27Speaker 1: attention for yes, injuries, that kind of the kind that
- 34:31Speaker 1: usually ends up resulting in depth of that is very
- 34:35Speaker 1: disproportionately well. According to the National Crime Victimization Study, and
- 34:41Speaker 1: it was nearly ten year study, twenty four percent of
- 34:45Speaker 1: domestic violence survivors are men, which means that seventy six
- 34:50Speaker 1: percent are women. Now you know that those are statistics.
- 34:55Speaker 1: Statistics are never allowed in court. But back to a
- 34:59Speaker 1: perfect example of a male being a victim of domestic
- 35:04Speaker 1: violence at the hands of a female. Take a listen
- 35:07Speaker 1: again to Alex Skill on GMB. She made you made
- 35:12Speaker 1: you sleep on floor? Yeah, I slept on the floor
- 35:14Speaker 1: for about eight months with I had to wear my
- 35:17Speaker 1: own clothes that I wore in the day. I probably
- 35:19Speaker 1: wore the same clothes about four days because I couldn't
- 35:21Speaker 1: take it off because and I was putting clothes on
- 35:24Speaker 1: top of me as my quilt, and I had clothes
- 35:25Speaker 1: as a pillow. And you were too scared to complain
- 35:29Speaker 1: or do anything about this. Yeah, there was nothing I
- 35:34Speaker 1: could do. I had no way of contacting anyone. And
- 35:36Speaker 1: if I did do it, I would have. She told
- 35:39Speaker 1: me if I ever tried to leave, she'd kill me.
- 35:40Speaker 1: When did she burn you? She started stabbing me before
- 35:44Speaker 1: that with a knife, And she wouldn't stab, she would
- 35:48Speaker 1: hit with a knife as if it was a weapon.
- 35:50Speaker 1: She'd hit so it'd leave big gashes. And they were
- 35:52Speaker 1: left untreated. And then after it was November time, we
- 35:56Speaker 1: went to go and watch a concert and I woke
- 36:00Speaker 1: up because she was pouring boiling water onto my back.
- 36:04Speaker 1: It was like an alarm call of yeah yeah. So
- 36:08Speaker 1: we see the violence at the hands of the female
- 36:12Speaker 1: partner on the male, escalating from hitting to severe beatings
- 36:19Speaker 1: to stabbing, cutting, to pouring boiling water. You may ask
- 36:24Speaker 1: why didn't he tell cops, why didn't he leave take
- 36:28Speaker 1: a listen, question me in the house. We know it's
- 36:31Speaker 1: not you doing it to yourself. And so the other
- 36:35Speaker 1: he sat me in the car and he said, you're
- 36:38Speaker 1: not getting out of this car until you told me
- 36:40Speaker 1: the truth. And I said, I'm doing it to myself
- 36:43Speaker 1: and he goes, you're not. He switched his body camera
- 36:45Speaker 1: and he goes, you're gonna tell me now straight away.
- 36:48Speaker 1: So as soon as I knew that no one else
- 36:49Speaker 1: was watching it, just me and him, yeah, it come out.
- 36:52Speaker 1: And I said, please just go on the neighbors accusations
- 36:55Speaker 1: and don't say it's from me. Even with the cops
- 36:57Speaker 1: flanking him, he was afraid to make the client himself.
- 37:01Speaker 1: He was being horribly abused by his female partner. We
- 37:04Speaker 1: have just witnessed this in Miami with the only fans
- 37:09Speaker 1: model and her longtime boyfriend. Take a list our friends
- 37:13Speaker 1: at ws v N and WPLG A bloody Sunday domestic
- 37:18Speaker 1: killing inside a trendy Miami high rise. I think everybody
- 37:22Speaker 1: in shock actually ate craberd Out. These images come courtesy
- 37:26Speaker 1: of TMZ. The Sparkling One Putty So condominium is where
- 37:30Speaker 1: it got violent days ago, and now a twenty seven
- 37:33Speaker 1: year old man is dead and his family is devastating.
- 37:39Speaker 1: This trio was very close to twenty seven year old
- 37:41Speaker 1: Christian Obumselli and his girlfriend, who they've identified as twenty
- 37:45Speaker 1: five year old Courtney Clenny and only fans model and
- 37:47Speaker 1: Instagram influencer. So when police reported that Obumselly was fatally
- 37:51Speaker 1: stabbed by Clenny on Sunday inside their Miami apartment, the
- 37:54Speaker 1: friends were left speechless. They portray a very violent relationship
- 37:58Speaker 1: at the hands of only one person seen her hit him.
- 38:02Speaker 1: I've never seen him hit her. And the only fans
- 38:07Speaker 1: model is behind bars right now on a murder charge.
- 38:10Speaker 1: But who could forget the poster girl for stalking, terrorizing
- 38:16Speaker 1: and murder Jody Arius listen with all these lies, right
- 38:20Speaker 1: and the jury knows that these are lies, but she's
- 38:23Speaker 1: still claiming self defense. Now, last time I checked there
- 38:27Speaker 1: was no witness to this confrontation other than the accidental
- 38:30Speaker 1: photos that were taken. She has to testify, doesn't she
- 38:34Speaker 1: if she she wanted anyone to believe the catch man
- 38:37Speaker 1: nine stab wounds to the back. That was the reality
- 38:41Speaker 1: check I was about to give Vinnie Politan And it's
- 38:45Speaker 1: just like doctor Mindy mechanics, says Jody Arius knew Travis
- 38:49Speaker 1: Alexander was about to leave her and take another girl
- 38:52Speaker 1: on an exotic vacation, and it all ended the stalking,
- 38:58Speaker 1: the pursue, the anger, and then the moment she finally
- 39:03Speaker 1: realizes he's leaving. Same thing happened with Shana Hubers when
- 39:08Speaker 1: she realized her boyfriend they were broken up, up and
- 39:12Speaker 1: coming Lawyer Posting was having a date that night. I
- 39:16Speaker 1: think it was Miss Ohio. The fact that he was
- 39:19Speaker 1: leaving her losing control was too much for her to take.
- 39:23Speaker 1: Listen our friends at Fox nineteen. Cecily Miller testified that
- 39:27Speaker 1: Hubers knew that Posting was going on a date with
- 39:29Speaker 1: Miss Ohio. Audrey BOLTI the night she shot and killed him.
- 39:32Speaker 1: When I remember is when she shot him, it was
- 39:36Speaker 1: like bang bang bang, bababean. It's grayed and then She
- 39:39Speaker 1: sit down and she said, I just gave a nose
- 39:40Speaker 1: job he always wanted. Cackle left. She shoots him in
- 39:44Speaker 1: the face and says, I gave him the nose job
