Latest / True Crime with Gavin Fish / If I Were D4vd’s Lawyer, Here’s the Defense I’d Try | The Death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez
Transcript
- 0:02Well, what, what should how should I intro this?
- 0:06Let me think about it. Probably should have thought
- 0:08about it before I started. Javi going to need you to edit
- 0:13this part out for me, will you? OK, here's how I'm going to
- 0:16intro it. Ready 3 two guys.
- 0:19Earlier today I was talking to two people, one professional
- 0:23investigator with like 3540 years experience and one defense
- 0:28attorney. And I was reminded that
- 0:33sometimes when cases feel bulletproof, they are not that
- 0:41Sometimes you just can't get a jury to convict.
- 0:47And this case, this case where a 14 year old girl was murdered
- 1:01allegedly by this man Deform Vida David Anthony Burke.
- 1:10It's possible that even though there's a mountain of evidence
- 1:14that we have seen so far and we haven't seen anything, we've
- 1:17seen just like just just the edge of the tip of the iceberg,
- 1:23right? But it seems like there's a
- 1:26mountain of evidence, but you just can't trust a jury to
- 1:31convict. And so I thought, what are the
- 1:36ways that defense attorneys might be able to get this guy
- 1:40off? I mean, I see three, I see 3
- 1:46strategies that we have seen over and over again.
- 1:51Hold on. I got to, am I using the wrong
- 1:54mic? Give me a second.
- 1:56You can hear me, but it's not sounding good.
- 2:01It's not it's not detecting my mic.
- 2:03Give me a second. You guys can hear me though You
- 2:07guys can hear me the which is good.
- 2:10Let me let me just restart this and see if my good mic will turn
- 2:14on. Come on.
- 2:17Good mic. There it is.
- 2:25There it is. There.
- 2:26We've got the good mic. All right.
- 2:28Thanks, Autumn. Appreciate that.
- 2:29My amazing moderator. Where was I?
- 2:32Javi, you're going to have to like bump up the audio somehow
- 2:35in the in in post, I guess. OK.
- 2:40I can think of three defenses that we see over and over and
- 2:45over again, sometimes used successfully, that I think
- 2:54probably could be used for this man in this little girl's
- 3:01murder. Now, do I want this to be the
- 3:04case? Do I want him to?
- 3:06No, no. I think they got him dead to
- 3:09rights. But you just can't trust those
- 3:11juries. And we're going to talk about it
- 3:12tonight. We also have a little a little
- 3:15news in the case. We're going to do 3 questions.
- 3:18We got some headlines to go over.
- 3:20We got an update in the Nancy Guthrie case, the Melody Buzzard
- 3:24case, the Robin Michelle Reiner case.
- 3:25We've got some good news to talk about.
- 3:28Got a lot of show that we are going to get into.
- 3:34And I hope that you will stick with me while we do.
- 3:37Let's dive in. This video contains mature
- 3:52themes and discussions intended only for adult audiences.
- 3:56Viewer discretion is advised. Hello there my friend, welcome
- 4:01back to another true crime conversation with me, Gavin
- 4:03Fish. Thank you very much for sitting
- 4:04through the technical difficulties while my, my sound,
- 4:11my team, my well, while Javier kind of figured this out.
- 4:16Sure, I did the reboot, but it was Javier that got it to
- 4:20connect. And I'm glad that you stuck with
- 4:24me. I mean, we're 4 minutes into
- 4:26this thing and you're already seeing what an amateur I am.
- 4:30I'm supposed to be some kind of professional, but I definitely
- 4:34am not. Guys, what are we talking about
- 4:35today? We're mainly talking about the
- 4:38murder of the 14 year old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, the
- 4:45Lake Elsnor teenager who was lured away from her family in a
- 4:54an act of predation in what I think is just a disgusting
- 5:01predatorial act. But he hasn't been convicted of
- 5:06anything yet. This is all alleged by this guy,
- 5:11a man named David Anthony Burke. And we refer to him not so
- 5:15lovingly around here as Deformada with props and
- 5:19admiration to Pascal, who kind of coined that, at least for me.
- 5:24I I think he he probably is the one.
- 5:27He's the one. I got it for sure.
- 5:29So Deformada, this guy right here who is used to the public
- 5:34seeing him all polished, you know, be costumed and all, all
- 5:44just beautified and everything. But these days, not so much.
- 5:49He in jail. He in jail and he in court
- 5:54sometimes, but most of the time he in jail.
- 5:59And I think I'm just going to say this caveat, right?
- 6:03If he did the things the prosecutors say he did, then he
- 6:08going to be in jail a long time and I hope for the rest of his
- 6:12life. Celeste was found.
- 6:17She was discovered September 8th, 2025, a day after her 15th
- 6:24birthday, in the trunk of Mr. Burke, Mr. de Forvide Burke's
- 6:30car. She was dismembered.
- 6:34She was badly decayed. She was unceremoniously and
- 6:41unlovingly torn apart and and stored away, hidden from
- 6:51everybody that was looking for her.
- 6:53And and yeah, she was a child. She she was lured into this from
- 7:00the age as early as 11, we understand she began
- 7:04communicating with Mr. Vada and, you know, got kind of sucked
- 7:12into his gravitational pull and eventually got past the old
- 7:18event horizon and could not get out.
- 7:22And prosecutors allege that Mister Vada stabbed her to
- 7:28death, let her bleed out, then with a chainsaw, divided her
- 7:34asunder and stuck her into bags and eventually into his car.
- 7:39It's it's a disgusting, disgusting case.
- 7:43That is, I mean, this should not only horrify, but it should
- 7:48offend every single one of us. Now, Thank you for joining me.

- 14:29Do we want to start with the news?
- 14:31Do we want to start with the news and work into the
- 14:36conversation about the defenses or do we want to do defenses
- 14:39first? Let's start with the news.
- 14:41Let let let's, let's do that part.
- 14:44OK. This reported by TMZ.
- 14:48Join me if you will over at Acrobat.
- 14:52This written by TMZ staff. Deforevida's brother Caleb
- 14:57denies cover up claims as he launched his music career.
- 15:00Caleb, bad timing, man, that that is just bad timing.
- 15:06Launching your music career as the brother of the man accused
- 15:14of murdering a 14 year old girl. Bad timing.
- 15:19And I'm not, I'm not saying that you had you.
- 15:23Your only sin, your only crime here, Sir, is bad timing.
- 15:30Now, the the good news is you know how to spell a name.
- 15:36It's just Caleb, and that is great.
- 15:38Let's read it. Deformita's younger brother,
- 15:42Caleb Burke is trying to separate himself from the
- 15:44firestorm surrounding the Celeste Rivas Hernandez murder
- 15:49case while also trying to launch a music career of his own
- 15:53online. In a lengthy Instagram story,
- 15:57Caleb said Thursday he stayed silent because the case is a
- 16:01quote UN quote ongoing legal matter close quote, but felt
- 16:05compelled to speak after social media users accused him of
- 16:09helping cover for his brother. Well, I mean, there was the
- 16:15whole trying to dodge the grand jury.
- 16:20I, I think that was Caleb, was it not?
- 16:23I know it was his parents. It's the family he got the, the,
- 16:28the family stank on him, right? Trying to dodge the grand jury.
- 16:36People aren't all trusting of the VADA family.
- 16:43We the is it hyphenated? Is it Vada Burke family?
- 16:48The Vada Burke family, Because of that, I I yeah.
- 16:56It just feels icky. It feels like, oh, you knew
- 17:00something was going on. Plus there's the whole Deformada
- 17:06transferring assets into the name of his mom, which can all
- 17:13be undone. That is the stupidest thing
- 17:15ever. It can all be undone.
- 17:20Criminals are dumb. Well, the ones that are caught
- 17:23are dumb. They're just so stupid.
- 17:26But anyway, you got some stank on you, Sir.
- 17:29You got to, you got to, you got to dust off that stank and
- 17:35maybe, maybe wait for your career launch.
- 17:41It's hard. I know.
- 17:43I'm I'm a younger brother. I am the third of three
- 17:48brothers, the 4th of five children.
- 17:50I understand what it's like where you're like, what
- 17:56everybody thinks. He's so cool.
- 17:57I'm cool too. I get it.
- 17:59I get it. I've got younger brother
- 18:02syndrome. I'm just assuming you're a
- 18:03younger brother. But anyway, OK, quote, I've seen
- 18:10people say that I knew what was going on and was protecting my
- 18:14brother. This is not true at all, he
- 18:16wrote. This sounds like he knows his
- 18:19brother is guilty. His brother's over there going
- 18:24stop it. Caleb.
- 18:26Paige and Caleb shut up. That's probably what's going on
- 18:30from jail right now, Caleb claimed, continues the article.
- 18:34He hasn't lived with De Forvida for years and said they were
- 18:38never especially close, only seeing each other occasionally
- 18:43during family visits or tour stops.
- 18:47He also said he was around Celeste only a handful of times
- 18:51when he was 15 and insisted he did not know her age.
- 18:56So if Deformada was 18 at the time that Celeste started
- 19:03working, spending time around him, then Caleb would be a few
- 19:11years younger, three years younger, maybe 2 years younger,
- 19:14something like that, right? He said he was 15 when he was
- 19:19around Celeste only a handful of times and insisted he did not
- 19:23know her age. Everybody that's a girl.
- 19:32That's not a woman. Look at her picture.
- 19:35She's a girl, right? She's she's a young teenager.
- 19:41Come on. If if a 15 year old didn't like
- 19:46guys, I don't buy this whatsoever.
- 19:49So say I'm 15 years old now and I was at one time, believe it or
- 19:57not, I was 15 years old. I was hanging around other 15
- 20:00year olds. I was, you know.
- 20:06I, I guess a 13. No, there's a difference when
- 20:10you're 15. I'm trying to think of, like,
- 20:12little brothers and sisters of friends at the time.
- 20:16Yeah. Like I've, I've got a friend who
- 20:18he and I are about the same age. He's a little bit older than me.
- 20:21He's February to October older than me.
- 20:23And his little sister is 2 1/2 years younger than him.
- 20:27So when I was 15, I could tell she was 13.
- 20:33It wasn't like I was going, oh, she is my peer.
- 20:35No, she was a 13 year old, didn't know her age.
- 20:40Come on man, come on. I don't buy it.
- 20:44Not buying it. This is a hard consumer right
- 20:46here. You're not selling them.
- 20:48Continuing the article, the aspiring artist with the world's
- 20:52worst timing also addressed A backstage video that's been
- 20:54making the rounds online, where some users alleged he helped
- 20:58sneak Celeste backstage at 1 of Deformada's concerts.
- 21:02Caleb denied that too, saying Celeste was quote already at the
- 21:05show close quote and claiming the clip was filmed after the
- 21:09concert had already ended. According to him, the two were
- 21:13simply walking back after grabbing something from a fan
- 21:16near the stage. The statement drops as public
- 21:20scrutiny around anyone tied to Deformada continues to intensify
- 21:25while Caleb Vida, no, no, he, he doesn't have it.
- 21:28See, he didn't, he's, he's spelling his name correctly,
- 21:33tries building his own fanbase. Critics have accused him of
- 21:37benefiting from the massive attention surrounding the case,
- 21:41something he appeared to push back on directly in the post
- 21:43writing. I don't want to make this
- 21:45horrible situation about me. I want justice for Celeste and
- 21:49her family. OK, what?
- 21:54What songs does Caleb Burke currently have?
- 21:59Please don't tell me it's anything remotely close to
- 22:03something sounding like romantic homicide or something like that.
- 22:08Let me just go to Uncle Google here for a second.
- 22:11Let's let's just do a quick little Caleb Berkey poo songs.
- 22:20Let's see what he's got. So on SoundCloud, what does
- 22:23Caleb Burke have? What does he have?
- 22:31He has X Temptation F Oh, let's see, Caleb Burke.
- 22:39I can't tell. I'm not good at this, but Caleb
- 22:47Burke, top albums, songs. No songs available.
- 22:55No. I I So, yeah, whatever.
- 22:57OK. Bad timing.
- 22:58And it does seem that you are making it a little bit about
- 23:02you, Sir, But I'm glad that you want justice.
- 23:05Or at least you say you want justice for Celeste.
- 23:10I I definitely want that as well.
- 23:13I hope you all do, too. I know you all do, too.
- 23:15Tell me what you're thinking of Mr. Burke here and let me let me
- 23:20just check in. Hey, Heather Sparrow, welcome to
- 23:24fanatics. Glad that you are here.
- 23:26Thanks for joining us. Let me let me refresh Fi.
- 23:32Let's see. And Christine 80 says if Celeste
- 23:35died in April and was kept in a trunk for five months, wouldn't
- 23:38she be bones? Decay is rapid, especially in a
- 23:40trunk throughout the summer. Well, I don't think she would be
- 23:44bones. In fact, they, I mean, the, the
- 23:49autopsy report reported soft tissues still being intact and
- 23:56the presence of flies and larvae and other insects.
- 24:03And I'm sorry to talk about this being so, you know, in such a
- 24:06direct manner. It's gross.
- 24:07But that that indicates that there was food.
- 24:11There was food there and there would be a lot of.
- 24:17There'd be a lot of. Fluid as well.
- 24:26Yeah. K Jenks, 81, wasn't.
- 24:29He wasn't someone hiding in Montana.
- 24:31That was Neo, if I remember. Neil Langston was, I don't know
- 24:35if he was hiding in Montana. That might be a little low
- 24:41overly zealous in the description, but he definitely
- 24:44was in Montana for sure. We keep on scrolling up here.
- 24:50Oh, oh, Vince sins. Gotcha.
- 24:53Thank you very much. Clarinet girl says most people
- 24:57are good. A kindness also goes a long way.
- 25:03Sarah Autumn says Jay Wisdom did a really good doc on David's
- 25:07upbringing bringing before becoming famous.
- 25:10You should see it. I should check that out.
- 25:12I should thank you very much for that.
- 25:16See if there's anything else before we go on.
- 25:20Let's see. Yeah, That's another singer you
- 25:23write Autumn. He was.
- 25:27He was on a list, I guess. There.
- 25:29Debbie says thanks for checking on his music.
- 25:32I didn't see much, but yeah. Autumn says Caleb goes by Cova
- 25:38in the music. Come on, Caleb.
- 25:42Come on Caleb, that's I was all excited.
- 25:49You know, you don't need to change your name.
- 25:51You could just be Caleb. You could just be Caleb and it'd
- 25:55be fine. Deep Dive with Osaria says J
- 25:59Wisdom's doc is fantastic. I will check that out.
- 26:02Clarinet Girl says. Does the article you were
- 26:04reading address that? Caleb says he's not lived with
- 26:07deformed for years and they were not close.
- 26:09It does say that, yes, yes, it does say that indeed.
- 26:15OK, let's get into. Let me bring up my notes here.
- 26:20Let's talk about the different defenses that I think are going
- 26:26to be brought up in this case, OK?
- 26:30And, and I've got a couple of ideas about how these defenses
- 26:33are used, how I've seen them used, how I've seen them used
- 26:36successfully. But #1 is the someone else did
- 26:45it after she left him defense. That's that.
- 26:51That's like the most obvious to me is hey, yeah, Select this
- 26:57would be the defense. I I am.
- 26:59I am Mr. Veda. And he says, yeah, I did pay for
- 27:05the Uber for Celeste to come from Lake Elsinore, the 70 miles
- 27:09to Hollywood. And she did come and see me and
- 27:13she was with me for a few minutes.
- 27:16But then she left and I don't know what happened to her after
- 27:22that. She she just left and you know,
- 27:29LA is a dangerous place. It can be.
- 27:32And and I'm sorry that I thought about that.
- 27:34I'm sorry that I brought her to such a dangerous place.
- 27:38Los Angeles, CA, from her idyllic little Norman Rockwell
- 27:43town of Lake Elsnor. But that's not a crime.
- 27:47I just, I brought her here to talk to her because, yeah, she
- 27:51was threatening to tell everybody, spurious and made-up
- 27:59things about some sort of sexual affair and which weren't.
- 28:04None of that was true, of course, and I wanted to talk to
- 28:09her about it. We got into an argument.
- 28:11She left. And yeah, LA is unpredictable.
- 28:17I don't know what happened after she left.
- 28:19That is basically that is to me, the manufacturer of doubt,
- 28:27whether it's reasonable or not is in the eye of the beholder
- 28:34jury, right? They are the ones that they're
- 28:38the judge of credibility. They're the judge of the facts,
- 28:43not the judge of the law. And will they see right through
- 28:46that and go, no, there you see. And the, the prosecution is
- 28:55probably going to do a very good job of narrowing that window as
- 28:58much as they can, right? From what we've learned so far,
- 29:03that that kill window is only 20 minutes.
- 29:07And the, the prosecution is going to do their very, very
- 29:11best to not only narrow that window, but show that Deformida
- 29:18was seen carrying the bags was, you know, he bought the, the
- 29:23chainsaws, he bought the, the shovel, all that stuff, right?
- 29:28So they're, they're going to be piling on the, the
- 29:32circumstantial evidence, the direct evidence, everything that
- 29:35they have, they're going to be piled on.
- 29:37And that's, that's what they're going to try to to do.
- 29:43The defense, of course, is going to be like, OK, are there any
- 29:46gaps in Celeste movements? Are is there any incomplete
- 29:51surveillance footage? Remember, she was discovered
- 29:56five months after she died. Would there have been lots of
- 30:02surveillance footage that was overwritten because, you know,
- 30:06it was past thirty, 6090 days. The defense will probably go
- 30:12there is no direct witness that said that saw David Anthony
- 30:20Burke kill her. No direct eyewitnesses.
- 30:25And of course we don't know this yet.
- 30:26This is this is just me speculating from what we do
- 30:29know, they will they will look to leverage any ambiguity about
- 30:35when she actually died. In fact, that's that's going to
- 30:39be one of the things that medical examiner's not going to
- 30:41be able to say when she died. There's no time of death on this
- 30:44one, right? They can guess they can guess,
- 30:49but they there's no forensic time of death based on the
- 30:55discovery of her body or anything like that.
- 30:58They're they're going to, they're going to try to point to
- 31:02some other person to cultivate that, that seed of reasonable
- 31:13doubt. So obviously the weakness in
- 31:17this idea that someone else did it after she left would, would,
- 31:22it's going to depend on what forensic evidence, what direct
- 31:25evidence, what video, which eyewitnesses, did Deformada talk
- 31:31to anybody about it? Were there any text messages?
- 31:35Were there any shut up, don't tell the police kinds of
- 31:38messages. So if they have tons of digital
- 31:44activity and forensic evidence and, and all that stuff,
- 31:49especially the concealment part of things, then I think that
- 31:53this defense is really hard to sustain.
- 31:57But I think from the defense perspective, this is probably
- 32:01the most likely. This is the most likely defense
- 32:05in my opinion. Now, there are a couple like who
- 32:09are the classic people or cases that kind of prevailed on this
- 32:19or at least tried. The the one that comes to mind
- 32:22that's the most obvious is OJ Simpson, right?
- 32:29The defense didn't have to prove that somebody else killed Nicole
- 32:35Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, but they were able to create
- 32:41doubt about the timeline. They were able to attack the
- 32:44integrity of the police. I mean, this actually happened
- 32:47in the Karen Reed case, right? Go after the police little bit
- 32:52they were able to suggest manipulation of the crime scene,
- 32:56contamination of the crime scene and imply or outright just say
- 33:03alternative possibilities. So the, I mean, the key to the
- 33:08OJ Simpson acquittal is they were basically they convinced
- 33:14the jury, hey, you cannot or the the prosecution did not
- 33:18conclusively prove that OJ committed the murders beyond a
- 33:21reasonable doubt. And that is very similar to what
- 33:26defense attorneys might be able to say.
- 33:28You can't conclusively prove what happened after she left.
- 33:33And I have the benefit of having been in a jury room deliberating
- 33:39with 11 other people on a homicide.
- 33:43And I'm telling you, there are people that make it onto a jury
- 33:48that are absolute idiots. They're stupid.
- 33:51They don't. They didn't listen to the
- 33:52evidence. They, they draw conclusions that
- 33:54they just have to leap to. So, you know, conclusivity does
- 34:00not, does not equal reasonableness.
- 34:05But often times jurors are like, I do not want to convict anybody
- 34:09unless I'm 100% certain. So there's that.
- 34:15Another example that I thought about was Casey Anthony, right?
- 34:20The Casey Anthony case, they were able to suggest a, a
- 34:25different a different way that Kaylee died.
- 34:30It was an accident and my my client had nothing to do with
- 34:37the death. In fact, it was the rest of the
- 34:40family that covered it up. Jana, right.
- 34:43That's and so and in that case, again, a lack of direct proof,
- 34:52right? Just and they leaned hard into
- 34:56this whole just because Casey acted horribly afterward, went
- 35:00out dancing and celebrating, that doesn't prove she committed
- 35:04murder, right? And, and I kind of feel like
- 35:08that overlaps with what's happening in this case with
- 35:13David Anthony Burke, where like, yeah, he went and did an
- 35:17interview with a podcast and he went on tour and he went and
- 35:21performed. He did.
- 35:26He did things that when his friend went missing and somehow
- 35:32magically ended up asunder in bags in his car, he shouldn't
- 35:42have done those things. He should have been concerned
- 35:44about his missing friend. I'm using friend in air quotes,
- 35:49by the way, 'cause victim is the real word.
- 35:51But friend that that. That's kind of the way Casey
- 36:00Anthony got off the hook, I think.
- 36:03Yeah, she went out dancing and celebrating.
- 36:06But I mean, that doesn't prove anything, right?
- 36:13There are a couple of others, Amanda Knox, I guess, right?
- 36:17Amanda Knox was one where they used alternative perpetrator
- 36:22theories. They talked about there was
- 36:24tunnel vision in the investigation.
- 36:27They questioned forensic interpretation.
- 36:31Oh, and the media hysteria around it, right?
- 36:35That was leveraged. So her defense argued, you know,
- 36:40that investigators became emotionally convinced too early,
- 36:44built the case backwards. They they found who they thought
- 36:48was the perpetrator and built their case backwards from there,
- 36:52right? The the case jumped to
- 36:55conclusions. So maybe I'm not buying any of
- 37:02this. By the way, I'm curious if you
- 37:04guys are, are you guys buying any of this?
- 37:08Let me let me go over to your to your comments real quick.
- 37:13Let's see Redondo Beach 747514 goes.
- 37:21Gavin, have you seen the video of him apologizing for the smell
- 37:24in his house? I have not, no.
- 37:27I believe Asia and Neo were in the video.
- 37:31Oh my goodness Oh my goodness. Diddly squat.
- 37:36Says What keeps this case in my mind is the fact Celeste was all
- 37:39alone with her attacker. Her attackers.
- 37:43Interesting that you pluralized that with nobody at her side who
- 37:48loved her during that moment, facing this pure evil by
- 37:51herself. Just unfathomable.
- 37:53And I bet she didn't. She didn't recognize the danger
- 37:59that she was in. She didn't know the danger that
- 38:03she was in. And you know, at least according
- 38:07to Joseph Scott Morgan, you know her, this was not quick.
- 38:14This was a painful, painful way to die.
- 38:19Orange Chicken says the camera on the Tesla will show who put
- 38:22in the frunk. I hate that word, by the way.
- 38:25It's not. It's not you, orange chicken.
- 38:27It's just the word that I hate. Yeah.
- 38:30And Tesla, I mean, gathers so much information.
- 38:33But the time delta is an interesting question for me. 5
- 38:381/2 months or 4 1/2 months? Five months, something like
- 38:41that. Let me keep going.
- 38:48Couple of things, Scott's mom, did you watch the Stefan Diggs
- 38:53trial? I did not.
- 38:55But oh, so sad. Oh so sad, Natalie says.
- 39:02I'm intrigued on if we will ever learn about his dating history.
- 39:06Has he ever dated age appropriately?
- 39:09Was he a victim as a young teen by an older person?
- 39:13I've wondered about that same thing myself.
- 39:17I think. I think that there will be some
- 39:20stuff that that come that comes out.
- 39:23Here's one from Redondo Beach. There was someone on the stand
- 39:26in the Casey Anthony trial and they brought a jar of air for
- 39:29him to smell. I wish I was kidding.
- 39:33Wow. OK so the next one let me put GF
- 39:39in your comments. If you guys want me to see your
- 39:42comments, it's way, way easier on my side to to see your
- 39:45comment, if you will put GF in your comment.
- 39:48OK, the second one that I thought about was the defense
- 39:55that she wasn't murdered. She died accidentally.
- 40:00It was an accident, and maybe she overdosed or there was a
- 40:07medical emergency or she fell, you know, on something that
- 40:12stabbed her twice and. And then there was just panic.
- 40:17Then there was just panic. And this is this is this defense
- 40:21is like the cover up does not equal murder defense, right.
- 40:28So the argument is she had an adverse reaction to something.
- 40:32She's self harmed, she overdosed.
- 40:37There was an argument and, you know, or some sort of encounter
- 40:43where there was an accident, an accidental injury during that
- 40:46argument, and that he panicked afterward and behaved horribly.
- 40:52But that does not equal murder. And so this kind of defense,
- 40:57what it tries to do is it tries to divide immoral conduct from
- 41:04criminal conduct, right. Now, we saw this in the.
- 41:11Oh, goodness, hold on, think about it.
- 41:16Oh, the Anna Walsh trial, right? Where Brian Walsh.
- 41:22You guys remember this one, right?
- 41:26Brian Walsh. Yeah.
- 41:29He his part of his defense was well, is, is this a perfect
- 41:35example? I get that's not really a
- 41:37perfect example. I guess what's another one?
- 41:41Let me think about this 10 Michael Peterson, right?
- 41:48Michael Peterson, who this was the this was the death of.
- 41:58Let me bring Celeste back up. Michael Peterson argued that his
- 42:03wife Kathleen, this was back in 2001, died accidentally after a
- 42:10fall down the stairs. Do you guys remember this one?
- 42:17And that the scene looked like a murderer, but no, she just
- 42:24accidentally fell. So, you know, his argument was
- 42:30it was an accident. People thought it was a
- 42:32homicide. You know, the the visual horror
- 42:36scene looking like a scene out of Dexter heavily influenced
- 42:40public opinion, but it's not the case, right?
- 42:45And he did. Let's see, jury convicted him in
- 42:512003 sentencing, sentencing him to life without parole, but it
- 42:58was overturned and then he he entered a plea of voluntary
- 43:09manslaughter. It it was, it was weird.
- 43:12Another another one I I think kind of applies here might be
- 43:17the Karen Reed trial, right, where prosecutors claim that
- 43:27that she murdered him by running him over.
- 43:30But the defense argued no, that this happened very differently
- 43:35from what prosecutors claim. She wasn't even there.
- 43:39Investigators once again locked in way too early.
- 43:43And the physical evidence, according to the defense,
- 43:46doesn't doesn't show that she actually did anything.
- 43:49So, again, not, not they didn't argue that Karen Reed was
- 43:54perfectly innocent. They just argued that that the
- 43:58prosecution got it wrong. Right again.
- 44:02So will Deforma argue? Yeah, there was.
- 44:07There was an accident. Yeah.
- 44:08I invited her over. I paid for her Uber to come the
- 44:1370 miles from the Inland Empire to Hollywood and we argued and
- 44:19then just there was this weird freak accident, man, weird freak
- 44:23accident that she fell on a on a rake.
- 44:28It stabbed her twice and I didn't know what to do.
- 44:32And but that's not murder. That's not murder, right?
- 44:35Is that? And what, what do you think?
- 44:44You know what? What do you think the
- 44:45prosecution can do to overcome that?
- 44:47I think it's the same stuff, right?
- 44:49No, we've got all sorts of recordings.
- 44:54We've got videos of him moving a body.
- 44:58We've got, you know, and they will ask the jury, use your
- 45:01common sense here. In fact, I can think of another
- 45:03case that happened here in western Pennsylvania.
- 45:07The victim's name was Briarly Walters.
- 45:12What was what was her murderer's name?
- 45:18Brierley Walter's murder. I can't remember.
- 45:28I guess it's good that I forgot the name of the murderer.
- 45:32Oh, Brandon Richard Wells. That's what it was.
- 45:35In fact, this one is on my website.
- 45:37You can you can go to my website and see this case, but Brierley
- 45:41Walters was poisoned to death by Brandon Wells and then stuffed
- 45:53into a metal drum. In fact, behind the house, I
- 45:58might have pictures of it. I don't on my page, But behind
- 46:03his house, there were more of those drums.
- 46:08Oh, you can kind of see him in the thumbnail of the video that
- 46:10I did here, Right? So he shoved her into one of
- 46:15those drums. And then ultimately what the
- 46:19prosecution argued was that he hurt himself while trying to
- 46:23cover up the crime. The idea was to take that drum
- 46:27and to bury it in the woods, but he injured himself, I think it
- 46:32was his shoulder or something, and could not carry that out
- 46:36there. And when he was discovered, he
- 46:39told police, I put her in that drum in the bedroom and locked
- 46:44the door, 'cause I didn't want the children to see their mom
- 46:49like this. That was the defense.
- 46:54I didn't do it. And I sat through that entire
- 46:57trial in the courthouse with my little notebook and pen and I
- 47:05watched the prosecution tear that apart and basically go,
- 47:08guys, jury, are you going to let him get away with this?
- 47:13Are you honestly use your common sense?
- 47:17Who puts a woman in a barrel? Who does that?
- 47:21A guilty person does that. Somebody trying to cover up a
- 47:23crime does that. And then they had evidence of
- 47:25him buying the food that was laced and growing the the
- 47:30mushrooms that that she was poisoned with the whole thing.
- 47:37So, yeah, that, I mean, that's a, that's a very good example of
- 47:42that. The third, the third, I guess
- 47:48defense, we've kind of touched on it, but I was thinking about
- 47:52this and I have seen this happen and successfully sometimes.
- 47:56And the defense is investigators jumped to a conclusion that it
- 48:01was my client that they just said, you know what, my client,
- 48:08Mr. de Forvida Anthony Burke, is being framed by the
- 48:13investigators because he was the closest one and they needed.
- 48:18They were under pressure, they were under public scrutiny,
- 48:21international attention on this and and they just jumped to that
- 48:26conclusion and, you know, they were emotionally charged.
- 48:32There was all this Internet pressure.
- 48:34There was social media narratives.
- 48:36They were they were the investigators were influenced by
- 48:40the public outrage over Deforevida's behavior.
- 48:47You know, they, they would focus on tunnel vision on think I
- 48:52don't know if this is true, but like incomplete testing or
- 48:55incomplete forensics or, you know, inconsistent statements,
- 49:02chain of custody issues, you know, basically they will just
- 49:06go after the investigation gaps in forensics, media
- 49:11contamination. They might, the defense might
- 49:15argue, hey, you, you shouldn't convict somebody because they're
- 49:18creepy because they make music videos of themselves covered in
- 49:23blood. You can't, you can't convict
- 49:27people because the evidence, you know, proves guilt or doesn't
- 49:33prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
- 49:35It's reasonable to doubt this, right?
- 49:37And this actually is a surprisingly effective way to
- 49:43argue. Actually, you know what?
- 49:50At least partially, that was Cory Richen's defense, right?
- 49:55They just they just honed in on her because she was the last
- 49:58person with Eric Richens. They just honed in on her and
- 50:02that was wrong of them to do. That was at least part of the
- 50:08the defense and it can be effective with stupid jurors.
- 50:13And listen, I subscribe to a philosophy that was verbalized
- 50:24in the classic movie Men in Black and delivered and perfect
- 50:29deadpan by Tommy Lee Jones when he said his character said a
- 50:34person is smart, people are stupid, right?
- 50:38I, I completely agree with that, especially having had the
- 50:43experience of being in a jury room on a double homicide trial.
- 50:48I could not believe just how stupid some people were in
- 50:52there. I couldn't believe it.
- 50:54And if the defense is very, very good at humanizing the
- 50:58defendant, if they are good at almost dehumanizing or maybe
- 51:06showing investigators as having too big of an ego or suggesting
- 51:11that everybody assumed him guilty before the evidence was
- 51:17completely in, they can get to a juror or two or 12.
- 51:23That is, that is, I mean, it's it's a strategy that is used
- 51:30pretty frequently. Now.
- 51:32Are there? Let me, I've got a couple of
- 51:35examples of that, right? Actually, this one isn't a
- 51:38murder case. But do you remember Richard
- 51:40Jewell, right? Richard Jewell was a security
- 51:43guard at the Atlanta Olympics who discovered a pipe bomb.
- 51:47He probably saved hundreds of lives.
- 51:53But there was public scrutiny, right?
- 51:58And there was public saying he probably planted the device.
- 52:02And then investigators just focused on him, right?
- 52:08They locked in. They looked at him through the
- 52:12lens of he is guilty. They ignored contradictory
- 52:16context. And I mean, ultimately the guy
- 52:20was exonerated, but that's a good example of that.
- 52:23Another couple that might be, I think that these these apply.
- 52:29The the first one would be like Steven Avery.
- 52:33Steven Avery. What was the what was that
- 52:37documentary series, the docu series Making a Murderer.
- 52:39He was the subject of the series Making a Murderer, which
- 52:42probably was the that was the second piece of true crime
- 52:48content that I consumed because I didn't grow up liking this
- 52:53stuff. And it this is 1, I think and
- 53:00that and that he could be guilty too, but this is 1 where
- 53:07prosecutors just kind of focused in on him because he was he was
- 53:11a guy that was well known. He was a criminal that was well
- 53:14known, right? Another one, the first piece of
- 53:21true crime content that I ever consumed was the first season of
- 53:24Serial, which was the murder of Heyman Lee.
- 53:29What it it was Teresa Hallbach that was the victim in the
- 53:34Steven Avery case, in the Adnan Syed piece or case it was Heyman
- 53:40Lee, right? And this is another one where
- 53:47the argument really is you just focused on him because he's the
- 53:51boyfriend. Now, I'm I'm not saying whether
- 53:55I think he is or isn't the murderer just, but that is the
- 53:58kind of the kind of defense Alec Baldwin is another one, right?
- 54:06There's of course he was. He was acquitted of that.
- 54:10But yeah, this is a defense that is used successfully.
- 54:15The investigation jumped to conclusions all the time.
- 54:17And that is something, I mean, hey, guys, Duforvita could get
- 54:25off. He could be found not guilty,
- 54:29therefore innocent, right? I don't think it'll happen.
- 54:35I hope it doesn't happen, but it's possible.
- 54:39Now before we move on, let me just check in to see what what
- 54:43you guys are saying over in the live chat.
- 54:49Let's see, Clarinet girl says I read that the four Vida was
- 54:54heavily sheltered as a child. Yeah, I I understand that he
- 54:57grew up in a in a pretty religious home and what was very
- 55:01sheltered. He was homeschooled.
- 55:04He he talked in some interviews about knowing that something was
- 55:08cool if it if it offended his mom.
- 55:14Yes, indeed. Debbie asking, did you hear
- 55:16Tanner Horner, the FedEx driver, got the DPI Did.
- 55:21I did. And.
- 55:22Oh, that is a case, man. That is a case.
- 55:26Tink, hello from southern Norway.
- 55:28Thank you for being here, Tink, Autumn says.
- 55:34I sent you the video on Slack about the poop smell.
- 55:37All right, give me a second. Give me a second.
- 55:40Let's see, Autumn. Autumn has the arms of the Hydra
- 55:44as well. She can do multiple things at
- 55:46once. Let's see.
- 55:59OK, hold on. Let's let me refresh fire.
- 56:03Can you put this in the bag too? You can you put you, bro.
- 56:20I'm lucky you're packing it so I don't even get paid.
- 56:25Guys, I'm not getting paid for this.
- 56:28That's Neil Langston. They're not talking about the
- 56:55smell of like decomp though. Interesting interesting, thank
- 57:00you for sharing that. Appreciate that.
- 57:04Couple more comments before we move on.
- 57:13Angel host says Caleb went by Honestly Kvilib before changing
- 57:21to Kova, also known known as Karakova.
- 57:25Guys, you don't need fancy stage names.
- 57:27You can just be Caleb. You can just be Caleb.
- 57:32Oh, my goodness, guys. Weird Al made the rule.
- 57:35I didn't make this rule. OK, well, he doesn't have a
- 57:39number in his name, but Deformada definitely does.
- 57:42You can't use numbers as letters unless you're 7 or your name is
- 57:46Prince. Not your name is Prince or your
- 57:49Prince. That's that's just the way it
- 57:51is. Just just go by Caleb.
- 57:53It's cool. It's cool.
- 57:57A couple more things I believe Ivan one love says.
- 58:01I believe any defense he tries will fall apart.
- 58:03There's no way to argue against the paid Uber ordering the
- 58:07chainsaws under a false name and her body being in his car plus
- 58:11the digital evidence. I mean, I I tend to agree with
- 58:17you. In fact, I agree with you, but
- 58:22also, I mean we've seen people get off on some crazy stuff.
- 58:27We've seen people I don't know. We will see.
- 58:31I, I hope you are, I hope you are correct.
- 58:38Just refresh if I had again. Here we are.
- 58:40Let's see. Robin says my brother-in-law was
- 58:44a guard at Steve Avery's prison. He said there was 0 doubt that
- 58:48Avery was guilty based on all he shared with the other inmates.
- 58:54That that family, those call recordings that always started
- 58:58with. Yeah, yeah.
- 59:03Wall. Yeah.
- 59:05I it's like the entire family didn't have two brain cells to
- 59:08rub together. It's kind of crazy.
- 59:11Kind of crazy. Oh, the V in his name is for the
- 59:18Roman numeral 5. It is a number.
- 59:24It is a number. SolarWinds, OJ Defore.
- 59:31That's funny. That's funny.
- 59:34Well, we will see what shall happen guys.
- 59:38I, I, I don't, I'm 110% just based on what we know so far.
- 59:43The Deformida is guilty in my mind.
- 59:46That's my opinion. I'm looking forward to the
- 59:50preliminary hearing where we might see even more, get a
- 59:54little bit more, and hopefully we there will be some justice
- 59:59for this kiddo here, little Celeste Rivas, who did not
- 1:00:05deserve what she got. And yeah, we will keep on the
- 1:00:12case. They don't go anywhere though,
- 1:00:14because. We still got tons more to go
- 1:00:19over. We're going to get into some get
- 1:00:24in, get in some updates into the Nancy Guthrie case, the Melody
- 1:00:28Buzzard case, the Robin Michelle Reiner case.
- 1:00:30We're going to get into some good news.
- 1:00:32But before we do all that, it's time for three questions.
- 1:00:35Here we go. It's three questions with Gavin
- 1:00:38Fish. Okey dokey guys.
- 1:00:46In this segment I answer your questions.
- 1:00:49I answer your questions that you sent to me. 3 questions at
- 1:00:53gavinfish.com, three questions at gavinfish.com spelled out
- 1:00:56THREE questions at gavinfish.com.
- 1:00:59Don't try and cheat and put them in the live chat that that's
- 1:01:01cheating. Got to send them in.
- 1:01:04And then I, I add them to a fancy little spreadsheet and
- 1:01:07then I look at them and I go, that's the one that I want to
- 1:01:11answer today, or those are the three that I want to answer
- 1:01:12today. And I solemnly swear that
- 1:01:17nothing is off the table, that I will answer all of your
- 1:01:21questions completely to the best of my ability.
- 1:01:25Let us begin with question number two.
- 1:01:27No, not no, Javi. Javi, we're going to have to
- 1:01:31edit that out in post. Think you can do that?
- 1:01:35Yeah. Cool.
- 1:01:36All right, let's start with question number one from CM
- 1:01:39Warren, 58. Sam Warren asks if you could
- 1:01:47play a character in an action movie, who would it be?
- 1:01:52I put a little off. Take two.
- 1:01:56I've put a bit of thought into this, and here's what I think.
- 1:02:01I think it's got to be a Harrison Ford movie.
- 1:02:03I think Harrison Ford's cool man, so it's got to be one of
- 1:02:08his characters. Now, the classics are going to
- 1:02:12be Blade Runner, Star Wars and Indiana Jones, right?
- 1:02:20I think out of those, I think I got to go with the good Doctor
- 1:02:24Jones. I first of all, I think I had
- 1:02:27rock a fedora and a leather jacket, I think.
- 1:02:30And I mean, I don't have really much experience at all with a
- 1:02:37bullwhip, but neither did Harrison.
- 1:02:39So I, I, I at least I assume so. I'm, I must say Indiana Jones
- 1:02:46would be the character that I would play if I could play any
- 1:02:50character in an action movie. Now, if it's not Harrison Ford,
- 1:02:57maybe Neo in the matrix. I like the Matrix.
- 1:03:03That was really, really good. Tell me what you what would you
- 1:03:05choose? Put GF in your comments so I can
- 1:03:08see it. OK.
- 1:03:09If you could play a character in an action movie, who would you
- 1:03:12play? Question #2 Coming to Us by
- 1:03:15Diane G What is something you've changed your mind about
- 1:03:19recently? I did not put enough thought
- 1:03:23into this one. This is a This is a tough one.
- 1:03:26I reserve the right to change my mind frequently.
- 1:03:29I, I don't mind being wrong about something.
- 1:03:33I, I especially don't mind it if I am corrected on it, right?
- 1:03:36Sometimes I, it's a self correction.
- 1:03:38Sometimes it's somebody else saying you're wrong about this.
- 1:03:44You know, Kimberly and I were considering taking our children
- 1:03:51on what friends of ours called a radical sabbatical.
- 1:03:55See, we moved from Northern California to Western
- 1:03:59Pennsylvania as kind of a family adventure.
- 1:04:05Let's go on an adventure. Let's let's go somewhere new,
- 1:04:07somewhere different, go somewhere out of California,
- 1:04:11maybe somewhere in the east and, and try that for a bit.
- 1:04:16And that was nearly nine years ago that we did that.
- 1:04:20And we thought, you know, our littles were were little when we
- 1:04:24did that. So this hasn't been an adventure
- 1:04:26for them. This has just been life.
- 1:04:28So what if we took them on an adventure and we thought maybe
- 1:04:33we would do a radical sabbatical and we would go overseas for a
- 1:04:37summer a year or two. And in fact, that's the reason
- 1:04:43that we decided to visit Portugal last year was we we
- 1:04:48were in England anyway for crime con and let's let's check out
- 1:04:53Portugal. That seems like a cool place to
- 1:04:56to check out and we came away from it going.
- 1:04:59This would be cool for the kids to spend a while here, right?
- 1:05:05But we have changed our mind and part of that has to do with the
- 1:05:10fact that our parents are aging and we would like our children
- 1:05:14to have a good solid relationship with their
- 1:05:16grandparents. And we already live too far away
- 1:05:19anyway. So I don't know.
- 1:05:21Hopefully that answers your question.
- 1:05:23Guys, put GF in your comment and tell me if there's something
- 1:05:28that you have changed your mind about recently.
- 1:05:30And then question #3 Ladonna asks how come Javi never edits
- 1:05:39when you ask him to? First off, I didn't catch the
- 1:05:47misspelling of the word to I'm sorry.
- 1:05:49I'm sorry, Ladonna, but Javi, is that true?
- 1:05:53When I ask you to edit something out in post, are you not doing
- 1:05:57that? Javi?
- 1:06:03Javier Marceau, Guillermo Juanco, Ruben Navarro Torres de
- 1:06:11Los Andes? You know I'm angry when I use
- 1:06:16his full name. Dude, you got to.
- 1:06:20You got to do the editing. When I say take two or edit this
- 1:06:25out in post, La Donna, thank you.
- 1:06:29Thank you for calling out Javier for not doing the job that I pay
- 1:06:33him so much money to do. I mean, Javier is the highest
- 1:06:37paid employee on the entire staff.
- 1:06:41He makes so much money because I thought that he was doing a good
- 1:06:44job. Javi, Javier Marcelo Guillermo
- 1:06:48Juan Coruben Navarro Torres de Los Andes Che por favor porque
- 1:06:56Oasis. Look at the ego.
- 1:07:00I am steaming mad, steaming mad at Javier.
- 1:07:05Javi, listen, I don't. I don't want that to ever happen
- 1:07:09again. All right?
- 1:07:11I don't want that to ever happen again.
- 1:07:13I want I want it to be edited before it is broadcast or live
- 1:07:18streamed or uploaded. Got it.
- 1:07:22OK. Javi has been Javi has repented.
- 1:07:25I I accept your apology, Javier. I accept it and I'm grateful for
- 1:07:31all of the button pushing the toggle switching the knob,
- 1:07:35turning the the lever, levering all of it.
- 1:07:42You do a great job. We just we just need to make
- 1:07:45improvements. And you know what, Ladonna?
- 1:07:47He is a pretty new employee, right?
- 1:07:49We can't expect him to be perfect.
- 1:07:51I'm not. I make all these mistakes.
- 1:07:53He can make mistakes too. But Javi, buddy, let's do
- 1:08:00better, shall we? Shall we do better?
- 1:08:03Yes. OK.
- 1:08:05Javi has seen the light. He's made the switch and, and
- 1:08:09we're going to take him at his word that he is now from now on
- 1:08:13going to edit all that, all the stuff out in post that needs to
- 1:08:18be edited out. He what's that?
- 1:08:22Well, he's telling me that he's just under so much pressure to
- 1:08:25get things uploaded to Spotify. I I understand.
- 1:08:29I understand pressure, Javi, that we we've got to be
- 1:08:31professional here. Why can't you be like Wanda?
- 1:08:36Wanda is amazing. Wanda is like Wanda.
- 1:08:41If I were to ask you if you could sing or play something,
- 1:08:47let's say transition music, because we're going to go into
- 1:08:49headlines in a grungy style, would you be able to do that?
- 1:08:56Yeah, it's here. Do it.
- 1:09:18crime headlines. Okie dokie guys, I love to hear
- 1:09:23your answers to three questions. So put GF in the comment, put
- 1:09:27them in the live chat. Tell me your answers to those
- 1:09:30questions. What were the questions again?
- 1:09:32They were. What if you could play a
- 1:09:35character in an action movie? Who would it be and what's
- 1:09:38something you've changed your mind about recently?
- 1:09:41And if you want to pile on Javi a little bit for not making
- 1:09:44those edits, you're you're allowed put GF in the comment.
- 1:09:48I I think that that he needs to feel pressure moving forward.
- 1:09:52OK, while you are sharing that in the live chat, let's go ahead
- 1:09:57and hop into some headlines. This one in the Nancy Guthrie
- 1:10:02case. Human bones found near Nancy
- 1:10:05Guthrie's home, but police make a quick ruling.
- 1:10:07This is from the New York Post written by Alex Oliveira.
- 1:10:11Cops in Tucson, AZ rushed to investigate human remains that a
- 1:10:15streamer discovered in a Washington less than 5 miles
- 1:10:18from Nancy Guthrie's home Thursday, but they appear to be
- 1:10:21at least 50 years old, possibly even prehistoric.
- 1:10:24The bone was discovered by a live streamer searching the area
- 1:10:27for the missing mother of Today Show host Savannah Guthrie, with
- 1:10:32the area quickly being cordoned off by police.
- 1:10:35It was soon confirmed the bone was human, but officials said it
- 1:10:40they appeared to be far older than 84 year old Nancy, who
- 1:10:44hasn't been seen since vanishing from her home in February.
- 1:10:47Quote, this will be a prehistoric anthropological
- 1:10:51investigation. close quote, Tucson Police Department told
- 1:10:54KVOA, confirming there is no criminal investigation into the
- 1:10:58remains. The University of Arizona's
- 1:11:00anthropology department is helping with the investigation.
- 1:11:03The area where the bone was discovered was near a site where
- 1:11:06numerous Native American artifacts have been discovered.
- 1:11:09OK, so we got all excited, but but it's it's something
- 1:11:15prehistoric. Next, in the case of the murder
- 1:11:21of little Melody Buzzard, do you guys little remember little
- 1:11:24Melody, this little precious thing who alleged by prosecutors
- 1:11:30was the victim of her own mother?
- 1:11:34Ashley Buzzard appears in court as judge denies motion
- 1:11:37challenging her home search. This brought to us by KSBY and
- 1:11:42Crystal Bermudez. A judge denied a defense motion
- 1:11:47Wednesday challenging a search warrant connected to the
- 1:11:49investigation into the death of nine year old Melody Buzzard.
- 1:11:53Melody's mother, Ashley Buzzard, who was charged with murder for
- 1:11:56the little girl's death, appeared in Santa Maria court
- 1:11:59for a motion to quash and traverse the warrant.
- 1:12:02Defense attorney Erica Sutherland argued the detectives
- 1:12:06included false statements and omissions in the affidavit used
- 1:12:09to search Buzzard's Vandenberg Village home in October 2025.
- 1:12:14Sutherland argued that at the time the warrant was approved,
- 1:12:16investigators had only been looking for Melody for about 24
- 1:12:19hours. She also argued the affidavit
- 1:12:24did not include evidence that Melody had been harmed and said
- 1:12:27detectives were relying on a hunch rather than specific facts
- 1:12:31showing a crime had occurred. Prosecutor Jordan Lockie pushed
- 1:12:35back, arguing the affidavit established probable cause when
- 1:12:39viewed under the totality of the circumstances.
- 1:12:41Locke emphasized that Melody had not been enrolled in school or a
- 1:12:45home school program and then investigators were trying to
- 1:12:47locate a missing 9 year old child.
- 1:12:50During the hearing, the court referenced evidence
- 1:12:52investigators said they observed inside the home, including what
- 1:12:55detectives described as a child's bedroom that did not
- 1:12:58appear to be lived in. According to statements made in
- 1:13:01court, detectives reported finding minimal clothing and
- 1:13:05toys, spider webs on window sills and a lack of hygiene
- 1:13:09items such as a toothbrush and toothpaste.
- 1:13:13Prosecutors also said child welfare service investigations
- 1:13:16showed few signs that a child lived in the home.
- 1:13:20Photos of the room were provided to the court.
- 1:13:22Wow. During arguments surrounding the
- 1:13:26scope of the warrant, attorneys also discussed items
- 1:13:28investigators found inside Buzzard's purse, including wet
- 1:13:31wipes, a shell casing and what was initially believed to be a
- 1:13:35key fob but later identified as a recording device.
- 1:13:38Defense attorneys argued the items were not in Plainview and
- 1:13:42were discovered during a more extensive search of the purse.
- 1:13:45The judge ultimately denied the motion to quash, finding there
- 1:13:48was probable cause to issue the warrant.
- 1:13:50The judge also also pushed back on suggestions the warrant had
- 1:13:54been approved hastily, stating in court that the warrant review
- 1:13:58was not done in haste. Buzzard is due back in court on
- 1:14:03Thursday, today in Lompoc for discussion surrounding the
- 1:14:07release of documents by the prosecution to the defense.
- 1:14:10She remains behind bars and has pleaded not guilty.
- 1:14:15So that's what's going on there. And then ABC News reports that
- 1:14:22Jake Reiner discusses death of his parents robbing.
- 1:14:26Michelle Reiner in return to podcast.
- 1:14:28We talked about this yesterday that he was planning on
- 1:14:31returning to his podcast that's written by Mason Lieb.
- 1:14:36Jake Reiner spoke out about his late parents Robin Michelle
- 1:14:40Reiner as he returned to his long running baseball podcast on
- 1:14:43Wednesday. Jake Reiner's return to the
- 1:14:45Incline Dodgers podcast comes nearly two weeks after he broke
- 1:14:49his silence on his parents tragic deaths, calling the
- 1:14:51situation a living nightmare. If you have not read his sub
- 1:14:54stack post, it is something to read.
- 1:14:57It is really sad. On Wednesday, Reiner thanked
- 1:15:02listeners of the podcast, saying, Quote, I have seen all
- 1:15:05the love, all the support out there.
- 1:15:07I felt it was time to come back to the podcast.
- 1:15:09I was thinking about it for a really long time, he said,
- 1:15:12explaining that he wanted to pen an essay about his parents,
- 1:15:15which he published last month before returning to the podcast.
- 1:15:18Quote, I felt like I wanted to put my words out there and let
- 1:15:20people in as to the kind of people that my parents were at
- 1:15:23home, he said. Reiner also spoke on his
- 1:15:27experience with grief, saying he hoped to, quote, connect with
- 1:15:29people that are going through their own kind of grief.
- 1:15:33Continuing the quote, I know that not everybody's grief is
- 1:15:36the same. And even though every everyone's
- 1:15:38grief is unique to them, I'm sure that there are aspects of
- 1:15:41everyone's grief that we can all connect with.
- 1:15:43He said. Of course.
- 1:15:46Rob and Michelle were found stabbed to death in their home
- 1:15:49in Brentwood, CA on December 14th, 2025.
- 1:15:53The night before their deaths, Jake Reiner's younger brother
- 1:15:56Nick Reiner, who had been living on his parents property, got
- 1:15:59into an argument with Rob Reiner at a holiday party and was seen
- 1:16:02acting strangely, sources told ABC News in December.
- 1:16:06Nick Reiner was taken into custody hours after his parents
- 1:16:08bodies were discovered. He later pleaded not guilty to
- 1:16:11murder charges in connection with their deaths.
- 1:16:15So congratulations to Jake. I don't know if congratulations
- 1:16:19is the right thing to say, but but you know, there does come a
- 1:16:23time where we all have to like life has to continue.
- 1:16:27And it's that transition is hard and it's different for
- 1:16:30everybody. And, and I have no idea what
- 1:16:34it's like to go through what he has gone through.
- 1:16:37But like he said, we all have experienced grief and we all
- 1:16:40have had to make that transition.
- 1:16:43And I think that he's doing so gracefully, so good for him.
- 1:16:48Now. Those are your headlines.
- 1:16:52No, it's not all of your headlines.
- 1:16:54There's still good news. There's still good news to get
- 1:16:56to. Wanda, can can you give me
- 1:17:00another little piece of transition music?
- 1:17:02Can you? Can you?
- 1:17:03Can you? you?
- 1:17:23Oh, I can feel it. All right, guys from the Good
- 1:17:25News Network. This is awesome.
- 1:17:27People are awesome. Canadian woman gives free bikes
- 1:17:31and trikes to thousands of kids in the past 14 years.
- 1:17:35Written by Andy Corbley. Look at this.
- 1:17:37I love stories like this. People are amazing.
- 1:17:40For 14 years, a generous soul in Moncton has been collecting
- 1:17:45donated bicycles and children's tricycles and holding regular
- 1:17:49giveaways for families who can't afford to buy one.
- 1:17:53The reward of seeing kids smile and write off on their bikes is
- 1:17:56priceless, said Krista Richard, organizer of the Bikes and
- 1:18:00Trikes for Everyone program. Richard collects the bikes all
- 1:18:04year round and fixes them while holding the giveaways between
- 1:18:07April and October. Last year, some 400 children
- 1:18:10were on her waiting list, like Eunice and Oz, who put on their
- 1:18:14best Friday clothes and got their hair done for the big day
- 1:18:17when they'd write off on their first rail bikes.
- 1:18:19Look at those kiddos. Yeah, looking good.
- 1:18:24Richard told CBC News that she's given away thousands of bikes
- 1:18:28and trikes over the years and says the fresh air and time
- 1:18:30spent outdoors has more benefits than just the health of the
- 1:18:33child. Quote, with all these video
- 1:18:35games, there's no social contact and people don't know who their
- 1:18:38neighbors are anymore. But if we get a bunch of kids on
- 1:18:41their bike, then they get to know each other and then the
- 1:18:44families get to know each other. And I think the more time you
- 1:18:47spend outside, the better. Good for her.
- 1:18:50Giveaways always take place on Sunday, and there's a small team
- 1:18:54of volunteers who mostly go to collect the donated bikes.
- 1:18:57But Krista does much of the rest herself.
- 1:18:59She even started keeping adult bikes as well, in case parents
- 1:19:02want to go riding with their kids.
- 1:19:05She's awesome. It's reminiscent of a story GNN
- 1:19:08wrote last year. Working Bikes estimates it's
- 1:19:11taken in, fixed up and given away some 150,000 bicycles that
- 1:19:15would have been dested for landfill.
- 1:19:17Landfills. Many are given away in Chicago,
- 1:19:20more still in the US, but Working Bikes has collaborators
- 1:19:23in Mexico, Venezuela, Albania, Uganda, Angola, Egypt, Cuba and
- 1:19:28many, many more countries besides where their bikes are
- 1:19:31shipped. So good people out there doing
- 1:19:35good things. Krista, Richard, good on you for
- 1:19:38doing that. Thanks for thanks for doing that
- 1:19:41and for bringing us some good news today.
- 1:19:44We just we always need some good news and guys, those are your
- 1:19:49headlines, true crime headlines. Okie, Dokie, let's let's go to
- 1:20:02your comments. We can finish out the.
- 1:20:07Finish out the live stream with what you guys are saying.
- 1:20:10Debbie Pulaski. I'm sorry, Why do I?

- 1:20:32Victoria that Yeah, I loved red. I didn't see Red 2.
- 1:20:39Robin says I would be Deadpool. The sense of humor of that
- 1:20:42character is awesome. Ryan Reynolds was perfectly cast
- 1:20:47for that, I think. Yeah.
- 1:20:48Debbie also says you could do hair shampoo commercials, like
- 1:20:51the old Brett Girls commercials. And what's the name of the man
- 1:20:55with long, flowing blonde hair? He was on the cover of many
- 1:20:58romance. You know what?
- 1:21:03I tell you what? Tell you what I am going to.
- 1:21:08Are you guys ready? Are you guys ready?
- 1:21:12Debbie, this is for you. Here we go.
- 1:21:14When you investigate crime, you learn something important.
- 1:21:19Every strand tells a story. Some stories fall apart under
- 1:21:23pressure. But great hair.
- 1:21:26Great hair holds up under questioning.
- 1:21:29That's why I trust Lalibai, because great hair never pleads
- 1:21:36the 5th lullaby when the evidence is in your favor,
- 1:21:43though your wish is my command there, Debbie.
- 1:21:47Your wish is my command. Barb Olson says question number
- 1:21:51one. Although not an action movie, I
- 1:21:53would like to play the role of John Travolta.
- 1:21:56Edna Ternblad in the fat suit and fabulous wig from the movie
- 1:21:59Hairspray. Yeah.
- 1:22:02OK, You know what? There's there's dancing.
- 1:22:05That's action. Heather.
- 1:22:06Whatever says Black Widow. Autumn Doyle says whatever you
- 1:22:12said sounded like music, Gavin. What do you mean, whatever I
- 1:22:16said? Are you talking about Javi's
- 1:22:18full name? Miss Chivo's Dragon Says what?
- 1:22:21A snitch. Debbie.
- 1:22:26Oh, no. His whole name.
- 1:22:27Lynn. That's quite the name, Barb
- 1:22:30says. Oh, Javier, leave early for the
- 1:22:32day. You're done.
- 1:22:33According to Gavin Mooney, Javi's full name.
- 1:22:39Uh oh, Javi is in trouble. And then Danny says I would want
- 1:22:43to play the female version of the good doctor.
- 1:22:47Yeah, OK, good. Ivan says don't, don't scold him
- 1:22:52so much, right. I actually think Nolo Regani
- 1:22:56Estantoche. Yeah, I for some reason it it
- 1:23:00translates it automatically for you.
- 1:23:03Yeah, and Wanda does. Listen, Wanda's awesome.
- 1:23:06Archangel. Poor Harvey, Natalie says.
- 1:23:10Sounds like there needs to be a team building exercise with
- 1:23:13Gavin, Harvey and Wanda. Mini golf night, perhaps.
- 1:23:16Yeah, we should do some Putt Putt Javier, Wanda.
- 1:23:19Maybe we should go to Putt Putt, though I think Wanda with her
- 1:23:22many arms probably has the advantage.
- 1:23:24She's probably going to probably going to win.
- 1:23:28Autumn says. I would cry if Gavin yelled at
- 1:23:30me. Yeah.
- 1:23:34Clarinet girl. I looked into this.
- 1:23:36Unrelated to our subject matter, but Court TV was acquired by Law
- 1:23:39and Crime earlier this year. Massive layoffs and program
- 1:23:42restructuring. Yeah, pretty crazy.
- 1:23:47If there anything else where you guys put my initials, let's see,
- 1:23:52Dandelioness says. Didn't you do an Irish Spring
- 1:23:55commercial or something similar last year?
- 1:23:57Possibly. I did indeed I did.
- 1:24:02Let's see. I, I don't mind, I don't mind
- 1:24:05sharing. I, I think this was the first
- 1:24:08one I did. Here we go.
- 1:24:12Your wishes, my delicious skin. And this video is brought to you
- 1:24:17by Irish Spring. I get asked all the time about
- 1:24:23my skin care routine. People want to know, Gavin,
- 1:24:27what's your secret? How do you keep your skin
- 1:24:30looking so good? Well, I'll tell you, it's Irish
- 1:24:34Spring. Every time I shower, I use it on
- 1:24:38my face. No serums, No 10 step regimens,
- 1:24:42just Irish Spring. And it works.
- 1:24:46My skin stays clean, refreshed and balanced.
- 1:24:50A lot of skin care products promise hydration, deep
- 1:24:54cleansing, even anti aging benefits.
- 1:24:58Irish Spring, it just does the job.
- 1:25:02It keeps my skin looking and feeling incredible without the
- 1:25:06hassle. So if you're over complicating
- 1:25:09your skin care, maybe it's time to simplify.
- 1:25:12Trust me, Irish Spring, it's all you need.
- 1:25:18And there you go. Your wish is my command.
- 1:25:21Lynn Taylor asks, Where do we buy that shampoo?
- 1:25:24Lollibi? It's only in very high end
- 1:25:26stores. I think.
- 1:25:28I, I think the only place you can get is like in the Hermes
- 1:25:30store in Paris. It's, it's, it's $50,000 a
- 1:25:34bottle that, that's actual gold on, on the, on the bottle.
- 1:25:40But you know what? My hair is worth it.
- 1:25:43I I, I have to go to Paris and Debbie says you're brunette
- 1:25:48Fabio laughing out loud. Guys, thank you so much for
