  Speaker 3: What is it about Italy she loves.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, it's one of those things. Uh,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I've had two of those people in my life. When
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: when I first took Lindsay to Italy, and she had
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: never been, She's always wanted to go. She studied opera,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: as matter of fact, she was operatic studies. Her voice
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: is just insane, it's like beyond comprehension good. And she
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: had rented a place in Florence twenty something years ago
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: to live and study opera in Italy, where of course
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: opera is at is the King of the Hill there.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: And she couldn't go because she had some heart problems.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: I had to have a surgery and so she never went.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: So she was desperate to go. And when we went
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: for the first time, she literally we got off the plane,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: we jumped into a taxi to go to the hotel.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: As we're driving to the hotel, she's looking around and saying,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: this is home, this is home. It's one of those
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: weird you know, Kumbaia moments where I don't know, it's
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: just sort of.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: She felt a connection to the land.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: No, she felt that she was Italian.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And the same thing happened with Marjorie Maya first where
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: we went to Greece and she said this is home.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Weird.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I go to those countries and the first thing

  Speaker 4: It can be also, it can be very cheap.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: You know that.

• 6:13
  Speaker 2: It is time for Handle on the News on a
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Thursday morning with Heather Brooker and Me Late story. Well,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the US and Iran both have a very different interpretation
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: of what a cease fire is. They've been attacking each
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: other for a couple of days, traded air attacks second
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: straight day, and President Trump has vowed further strikes if
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Tehran does not immediately agree to a peace deal. He
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: has been saying for the last couple of weeks. We're
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: right there, We're on the precipice. They desperately want a deal.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: They're going to come to the table. Otherwise they're going
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: to blow them up. While they don't come to the table.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Trump does not blow them up, and he is wedding
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the uh. He's getting the fact that Iran slow paces everything.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: The Obama deal, which he uh completely well, he removed
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: us from took two years to negotiate, and there Iran
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: just slow walks it. And Trump, who is not the
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: most patient guy in the world, is saying, Okay, you
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: don't come to the table, I'm gonna bomb you into
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: non existence. We're gonna I'm gonna make you a I'm
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: gonna make the entire country a parking lot. Well, the
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: reality is he's threatened that, he's threatened that, he's threatened that,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: and at some point, you know, when he actually can't
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: go to war, he can bomb the crap out of
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Iran over and over again. And I'm gonna talk more
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: about that little later on. The problem is is not
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: so much him bombing the infrastructure and the United States
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: at risk. It's Iran will start bombing in a great
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: sense its neighbors, the Gulf States, and I guess.
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: This morning he said that tonight there's gonna be very
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: very powerful bombing. Yeah, Iran, and he's going to take
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: that carg Island. He keeps saying, yes.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: It's then it becomes a full blown conflict where the
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Golf States are going to get it. And that's a problem.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: So he can't put boots on the ground, God, God
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: help on me. He actually has an invasion with American troops.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Can't do that. The risk is, I said, with the
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: Golf States.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: So you make any enemy of the Golf States and
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: it just changes everything around far more than he wanted to.
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: Okay, moving on, all right, So remember that chemical that
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: crisis of the chemical spill, or the threat of the
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: chemical spill from a tank at GK and Aerospace and
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: Garden Grove a few weeks ago. Is over Memorial Day weekend. Well, yesterday,
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: federal agents led by the FBI and the us EPA,
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: they performed a search warrant and they went in and
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: they grabbed a bunch of records and materials. It's we
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: don't know exactly what they were looking for or what
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: they have learned since, but we know that they went
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: in and they took a bunch of They took a
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: bunch of stuff from this company to try to figure
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: out I guess what's going on or what caused this crisis.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the assumption is going that I make and I
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: don't think I'm wrong on this. If they're going to
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: find all kinds of violations of safety rules all over
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: the place, and because of the intensity, because of the
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: magnitude of this things, they're going to find a lot
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: of stuff.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: World Cup is starting today. The first match will be
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: between Mexico and South Africa in Mexico City. LA's first
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: match will be tomorrow between the US and Paraguay and
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: this tournament will last for five weeks in three host
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: countries of course, the US, Mexico and Canada and the
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: big final game match I should say match. I gotta
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: train myself to say match will be on July nineteenth.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Now, later on I'm going to at seven twenty, I'm
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: gonna do a story about the World Cup, a different
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: kind of story has to do with food. And then
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: tomorrow I'm going to do a story and the question
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: is why hasn't the US produced one superstar and why
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: is our team successfully sucking relative to other countries? And
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: I'll explain there's an interesting reason for that. And I'm
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: sure that, uh, you're not expecting this. Okay, moving on, So, if.
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: You are going to go to the World Cup any
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: of the games, keep your voovouzelas at home. You are
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: not allowed to bring your voovouzela. Do you know the
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: voovuzela is bill?
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a it's a woman's uh medical Uh No,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Do I have that wrong?
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: You?
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: You might be a little off on that. Oh, okay,
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: do you have a voo boozela? Sand Kno's probably I had.
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: I had a vooboozela, but you had it removed. No, yes,
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: I had surgically removed. Well, actually my wife did okay, No,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: I didn't have one.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: Had one here at the station. We had to take
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: it away from you.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Now it's it's loud. It's this plastic horn. Yeah. They uh.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: High holidays young keepo a uh the uh they use
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: a zuela in synagoguezela.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: Well there's no voovuzela's whistles or air horns or excessive
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: loud noise making devices allowed in the World Cup venue.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: So keep that in mind, Bill when you go watch
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: the games.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: Keep your number one.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I don't have you know, I did have one, and
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you why I had one. Because we had
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: deer in our backyard at Persian Palace, and you can't
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: shoot them, unfortunately, and you can't put them in a
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: bag and drown them. So what what I did is
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: get the zuela woozella and uh in the backyard and
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: as loud as I could to scare the deer who
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: were eating my flowers.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: They just looked at me and just said, what are
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: you doing? What are you doing?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: They were not intimidated at all by your voovuzela, not
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: even a little bit.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: So I had to put up a fence, an electrified fence,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: and we had some very well cooked venison.
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: Okay, okay, moving on, moving on, Bill, I know you
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: were up late watching the Knicks game. But they won.
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: They was a they did not do well in the
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: first half, but they had one of the biggest comebacks
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: in somewhere saying with some of the biggest comebacks in
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: NBA history.
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: It was amazing.
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: The Spurs dominated the first half, but then the Knicks
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: came back in the second half and they won their
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: fourth game in the NBA Finals one oh seven to
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: one O.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: Six, twenty nine point deficit and came back. I han't
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: been done before. Has that ever been done?
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: No, it's the greatest comeback in history. Yeah, in NBA history.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: It's amazing.
• 12:55
  Speaker 8: ConA watched, You watched, I did, and the Knicks held
• 12:59
  Speaker 8: the Spurs to third points in the all of the
• 13:01
  Speaker 8: second half. It was It was incredible, and it came
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: down to the last shot, which is always fun. It
• 13:05
  Speaker 8: came down to the very last second of the game.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: So Bill did not watch, Okay, I did not watch.
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: So let's talk about the Palisades Fire of Jonathan render Kanesh,
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: which we've now learned apparently that we've all been saying
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: his name wrong. We've been saying render necked by. One
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: of our writers said that it's actually render kinesh. Apparently
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: he was in court yesterday and federal prosecutors say that
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: he intentionally said that New Year's Day Lockman fire, and
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: that's the small blaze that allegedly smoldered underground and reunited
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: a week later as the Palisades fire. But his defense
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: says there's no accelerant that was found, no witnesses, nobody
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: who can identify him at the scene or as the
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: cause of this, and he has made no confession.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: What makes this trial particularly interesting is that there is
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: no direct evidence. As the defense attorney said, what the
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: prosecution is basing the case on is that no one
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: else could have done it if you look at where
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: he was, if you look at the totality of the circumstance,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: it's a question of exclusion.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: It's much like DNA testing.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: DNA testing doesn't prove you are a parent or a
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: related it's an exclusion. In other words, ninety nine point
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: nine nine nine percent of the population cannot be related,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: therefore you are. And much the same is here is
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: there's no other way. There's no other reason that that
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: fire began, but for him doing it, so it is
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: really circumstantial. And the and then the argument is that
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: the fire he started was actually a week before, even
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: if they convict him of that, it was a week before,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: and then it smoldered for a week and then it
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: exploded into the Palisades fire. So the argument's going to
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: be it's the fault of the fire department and they
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: should have put it out. Very interesting in our trial,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: he's going down by.
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: The way, Yeah, he's going to get blamed for oh yeah,
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: oh yeah, absolutely, somebody has to so yeah.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: Thousands of property owners who lost their homes in the
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: Palisades fire are now suing the city of la But
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: one has caught everyone's attention. Among the plaintiffs is the
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: brother of Mayor Karen Bass. His name is Kenneth D. Bass,
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: and he is part of the big legal action that
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: is targeting the State of California, the LADWP and other entities.
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: He lost his Malibu property there says it was a
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: total burned down and he suffered smoke inhalation and emotional distress.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: I wonder I haven't read the lawsuit if he is
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: actually suing Karen Bass, because some lawsuits are doing exactly that,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: saying she didn't come back in time, and she did
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: not do what she should have done. It wasn't a
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: timely decision. She was in Ghana right after she promised
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: never to leave Los Angeles during her tenure as mayor
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: and was slow in coming back even though she was warned.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, she says in response to or her team,
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: I guess said in response to the lawsuit that there's
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: nothing new here. Mayor bas has spoken of her brother's
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: loss publicly since January of twenty twenty five, and there
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: are thousands of people, thousands of plaintiffs in this action.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: So yeah, so what doesn't mean he's not suing her?
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: All right? She did.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: She did refer to him specifically when she was asked
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: at a press conference, and from what I understand, she
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: grabbed your crotch and said, bite me.
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: Do I have that right?
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Yes? I believe that's exactly what happened, Thank you, all right.
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: The Trump administration is asking a federal judge to reject
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: the attempt by two Virginia residents to stop this UFC
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: fight on the south lawn of the White House. They're
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: saying that the date is too close. They've been planning
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: this for the past year, and they're saying this event
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: needs to move forward. There's sixty million dollars that have
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: already been spent, thousands of spectators are on their way,
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: and they're saying they're blaming the people who are filing
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: the lawsuits, saying that they believe they have superior taste
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: and want to spoil the event for everybody else.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the administration is not only right on this one,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: but I don't know how it's going to lose because
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: the plaintiffs had a year to demand that the proper
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: permits be taken, and the defense is, yeah, it took
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: you a year. Also, there's something called standing. You have
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: to actually be damaged by the whatever activity is being made.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: And they're saying, here's our damage, Our view of the
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Washington Monument and the mall is being obstructed, therefore this
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: should not go forward, and you didn't get the proper permits. Well,
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: the part Works Department has in fact lowered the level
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: of permits for events like this, so you know what
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: are they doing.
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: It's just a frivolous lawsuit.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: And this is that our tax dollars defending something that's
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: absolutely stupid, and this.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: Is where the administration is right.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: I hate the fact that the Department of Justice has
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: to defend this crap. These guys should be nailed for
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: a frivolous lawsuit and sanctioned big time.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: All right, speaking of the UFC, this big event, the
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: fighters are going to have a news conference tomorrow at
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: the Lincoln Memorial, and this is again causing another rift
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: between administration and locals there as well as tourists. Apparently
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: all of the staging and lights and all the things
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: they have set up for this news conference are blocking
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: the view and obstructing the view along the National Mall
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: of the Lincoln Memorial. People are complaining that they're coming
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: to visit and they can't see it.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: And yeah, that's true, but that's not enough to although,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: come on the press conference in front of the Lincoln Memorial,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, come on, really yeah, So yeah, you're gonna
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: see these stonemaces chipping away at Lincoln's statue and getting
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: rid of the clothes that he's wearing and he'll be
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: bare chested.
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: Say they're doing the weigh in at the Lincoln I know.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: I mean that's insane.
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: I mean, they have all these lowercides set up. They
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: have like lighting rigs all this.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: No, it's just it just so cheapens are two hundred
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: and fiftieth. And that's the other argument. Is it really
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary that's being celebrated or
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: is it Trump's eightieth birthday? Matter of fact, the next
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: story argues that maybe it is all about Trump.
• 19:45
  Speaker 6: So as he is getting ready as President Trump is
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: getting ready for this big UFC fight outside the White
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: House on his birthday, as you said, his family is
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: getting behind twelve thousand dollars gold coins that people can
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: buy to help promote the fight card. So people, so
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: the president's sons Eric and Donald Junior, and the multi
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: billion dollar mixed martial arts company have well, they've partnered
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: to sell a collection of Freedom two fifty silver and
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: gold coins branded with a president's face on it.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: If you want to fire one hundred and fifty dollars
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: to twelve thousand dollars.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: Now, the Trump organization are not specifically involved, they're just
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: backing up and promoting the company that's doing this. I
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: think it's UFC directly, yes, that is selling these twelve
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars coins.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: Freedom to fifty.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: With UFC boss Dana White on it as well.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with not only is the Trump pictures, but also
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: statue of Abraham Lincoln with the no toppies, bear chested.
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: I know what I'm getting you for your birthday bit.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: That's absolutely true.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: So the president has seen twenty two medical specialists and
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: the White House isn't saying why. Specialist on his latest
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: checkup said that, well, this is actually nearly double the
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: number of specialists who assessed Trump for his past checkups
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: while he was president. And you know, of course, he
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: famously said and is after his last checkup that he
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: was fine, everything was great, he passed all the tests.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and twenty two sets specialists, half of which said
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: he is the fittest president who have we've ever had
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: the history of United States. The other half said he
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: is the fittest person that has existed in the United States,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: if not the world.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: That's impressive.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Well, he the first time around when he it was
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: the fittest president. That's was his That's what his doctor wrote.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: And it came out later that he actually wrote it
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: and the doctor signed it.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: That was reported. I mean, I mean, he's for eighty
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: years old. He is in pretty good shape. I mean,
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: there's no question about it.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: His mind is there and he's you know, I mean,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: he's a very young eighty if you look at what
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: he's done, but not you know, he's fitter than George
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Bush who used to run marathons and the Secret Service
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: those guys in their twenties couldn't keep up with him.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: And Barack Obama Obama who works out like crazy, and
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: it's pretty fit. But can you imagine can you imagine
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: the president playing hoops with a bunch of guys as
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Obama does, although the.
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: President in the UFC, maybe he'll jump in the fight
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: this weekend.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Now, he is a very good golfer, for what I understand,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: the guy does play a good, good game of golf.
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: Well, mom is the same age, and she is nowhere
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: near his health, so upright and moving around as well
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: as he is.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: So yeah, my mom when she was eighty was basically
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: an oil painting.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: The mona Lisa, no, no, no, moving on all right, this.
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: Is a you know, I don't know if you would
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: call this justice, but it's certainly something for the family.
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: Here of the two young boys that were killed in
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: Westlake Village by Rebecca Grossman. In twenty twenty, they had
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: been awarded almost two hundred million dollars by a jury
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: after this nine week trial. Of course, this is involving
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: the eleven year old an eight year old that were
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: killed Mark and Jacob Iskandor when she was speeding through
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: Westlake Village and hit them with her car. She was
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: also there with former Dodger pitcher Eric or excuse me,
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Scott Erickson.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the jury found that they were speeding basically
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: is what they are doing.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: There is some kind of a race now.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Last week reported that one hundred and seventy six million
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: dollars in compensatory damages, and I said the punitives side
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: of the punitive part of the trial is going to
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: happen next week. And it just came down and it
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: turned out to be another twenty one million dollars. Not
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: that any he's gonna pay two hundred million dollars. But Grossman,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I think she's gonna lose everything she has. Yeah, she's
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: probably have to going to go bankrupt on it.
• 24:08
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: San Berdadino homeowner says a county sheriff entered his backyard
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: without a warrant and shot and killed one of his dogs.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: The uh Hayes, who's.
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: Surna, says that his rottweiler named Daisy. He's heartbroken. She
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: was not just a pet, she was part of the family.
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: It happened in May in unincorporated San Bernadou, and surveillance
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: video shows deputies walking up the driveway looking into the
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: backyard where another dog, Raven, was seen, and the deputies
• 24:37
  Speaker 6: didn't leave and return about two minutes later when the
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: rottweiler approach, video shows the deputy.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: Pulling out his firearm and shooting the dog.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: If you watch the video, he kicks the dog first.
• 24:47
  Speaker 7: The dog comes over, come on like with a wagging
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: kind of a tail, and he.
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: Kicks the dog.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's still at work. Yeah, the sheriff.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, not only should he be fired based on
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: this story, but he should also would be looking at
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: criminal charges cruelty to animals.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is brutal.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: By the way, when I said the bankruptcy before, I
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: don't know if a grossman can file for bankruptcy based
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: on the fact that she's a convicted felon and the
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: she was I think convicted of the crime she was,
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: so she was okay, then maybe I stand corrected.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: I love this story for Amy. I wish Amie was
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: here proposed Disneyland license plates. So apparently driver California drivers
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: can soon show their love for the happiest place on
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: Earth by picking out their own custom Disneyland license plates.
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: It needed seventy five hundred signatures to move forward, and
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: it got forty four thousand signatures. So everybody apparently wants
• 25:47
  Speaker 6: to show up.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: You have you Have you seen the license plate, the
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: mock up of the same. No, it's the what do
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: they call the area around it?
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: The trim?
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the trim. Yeah, the tri says happiest place on Earth.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: And the actual license plate is simply.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: A dollar sign. Now.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Now, I went to Disneyland for the first time in
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: thirty years with Amy. I loved every minute of it.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: But you know it's still pricey.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well take our money any chance they get.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know the argument is you get a
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: lot for your money, and relative to other venues you do.
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: Okay, just a worthy the Disney fans and Disney people
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: think it's worth it.
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: Another thing that's worth it is one in an out burger.
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: And also Vegas, right, Michelle, Vegas is always well, oh yeah.
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: So there's a brand new in and out burger that

• 26:43
  Speaker 6: thousand square foot in and out located across from the
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: Aria and Park MGM.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Now, knowing when you go to in and out, those
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: are pretty small places. They are maybe a couple thousand
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: square feet, maybe fifteen hundred square feet, And this is
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: a big one.
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: Two floors, yeah, seventy people.
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: It can hold two hundred yeah, murders, and it's going
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: to be packed all the time.

  Speaker 4: Yes, of course it is, of course it is, yes,
• 27:07

  Speaker 6: they've been advertising and kept talking about have pretty much
• 27:29
  Speaker 6: all been snatched up for the events.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's finish up with a prank of pranks that

  Speaker 6: Thing to do, all right, So two hundred doors across
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: the campus at Patrick Henry High School in San Diego

  Speaker 6: were glued shut last month during finals weeks. School police
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: have surveillance video of the suspect on campus, but haven't
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: been able to identify them. All these weeks later, some
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: keys still won't slide into the locks, and they're still
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: looking for the person responsible. It's cost the school over
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: seventy thousand dollars worth of property damage.
