Hour 2: Lindsay Clancy jurors · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Well, now the jurors are speaking out from the Lindsay
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Clancy case. And as we are going back and forth
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: figuring out what the jurors were going to try to
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: do and what they were thinking and why there was
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: a mistrial, it's clear now that 11, including all of
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: the women on the jury, I believe there was eight
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: or nine, wasn't it? Nine. Nine women. Right. All of
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the women on the jury wanted not guilty. And there
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: was one holdout, as we had heard all along, we
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: just didn't know what the holdout was, but now it's clear.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: And we have heard from the foreperson, it was a woman,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: the foreperson saying that it was a certain point when
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: he admitted that there was reasonable doubt. And she thought, oh,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: that's it. We have a verdict.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: He admitted he had reasonable doubt. And I started filling
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: out the forms. I was so excited. I actually, there
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: were three forms I had to fill out. And I
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: started filling them out. I wrote my signature on each one.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: And then he said, but I'm still not going to
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: say that she's not guilty by reason of insanity.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: And that's when they sent the note to the judge saying, listen,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: we have somebody that's not obeying the law, not obeying
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: your instructions. And he called all the jurors in and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: talked to them, including this one gentleman who was holding out,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: and thank God for him. Three of the jurors have
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: come out now to talk. There may be a fourth,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: because I just saw that somebody was on Boston Radio
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: this morning, and I think it might be the guy,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: so we should probably look for that as well. But
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: when you hear these jurors, these women... Well, listen to
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: this and you see if you took away from this
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: what I took away.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: We read to him on numerous occasions the definition of
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: a reasonable doubt from Judge Sullivan's instruction. He actually said
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: one day in the end, well, why don't we have
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: the judge come in and read it again? And we
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: were like, no, we have it in front of us.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: We don't need that. And we would highlight it. And,
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: you know, so-and-so, this is the definition of reasonable. But
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: he had the hardest time getting off the fact that
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Lindsay viciously killed her children.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Did you hear that at the end? He had
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the hardest time getting off the fact that she killed
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: her own children, that she killed the three children. That's
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a hard fact to get over.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you would never have been chosen for the jury, Larry.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: You would have been recused from day one.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, you're right.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: So you have all these jurors, 11, two men, the
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: rest women, who came to the same conclusion based on
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: all the witnesses and the evidence. She also said that
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: she felt that the prosecutor showed no sympathy towards the
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: mother at all and that her attorney did a much,
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: much better job in bonding himself with the jury, showing sensitivity, empathy,
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: acknowledging wrong, but also guiding them in the direction of
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: what he hoped his client would end up with. That
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: was Reddington. They said he was entertaining, at times arrogant, compassionate,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: and funny, whereas the prosecutor just showed no empathy, no sympathy,
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: and that was a woman prosecutor. We're completely screwed. Our
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: judicial system, there's a big problem with it. Because everything
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: you just said, everything you just said doesn't include the children.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: And everything that was presented didn't include the children. The
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: fact that this one woman complains that, boy, that guy
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: just couldn't get over the three kids that died.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Well, you have to get over that. You've got to
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: get over that hump. Man, it's disgusting. There's something really
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: disgusting about this. And I will say that the Reddington,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the defense attorney has an answer to me and others
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: that believe as I do.
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: Oh, please. It's not evil. These people don't understand. They
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: don't know what she went through. They didn't see her
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: text messages. They didn't see her journal. They didn't see
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: the notes that she wrote. They didn't see the text
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: she sent her mother in October saying, mommy, can you
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: please come to here?
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I am sick. Something's wrong. Well, there's something wrong with us,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: not with the people that can't find someone who killed
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: three children guilty. That's the problem. That's the problem. Let's
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: just let them off. You know, they had another one
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: since then. Someone else killed a child, killed a child,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and now is claiming the same thing. I mean, now
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: it's going to be across the country. Everybody that kills
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: a child can just say that they have psychological disorder
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and they get to walk the streets again. I mean,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: it is insane that we're not only and purely talking
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: about the three kids. Also, Reddington is, you know, as
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: we were talking about a second ago, has asked for
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: a pardon from the president. President can't pardon this crime. Correct.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: State crime, not a federal crime. But now it looks
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: like he'll probably want to begin plea negotiations with the D.A.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: who did not prosecute the case. That's Tim Cruz. He
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: had his assistant D.A. prosecuted. But the jurors also said
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: that they heard from a wide variety of witnesses. There
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: certainly were plenty of witnesses, plenty of exhibitions that were
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: put in front of them. But they said they had
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: no character witnesses saying Lindsay was a bad mom. So
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: if you're a member of the jury and so many
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: people come to the same conclusion, Larry, and these are
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: not dullards, they're well-spoken. I mean, this is what our
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: system is. The jury made the decision and obviously had
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: the one holdout who had his doubts. And now the
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: process continues. So if it's a good person, there's no
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: one that said she wasn't a good person. If it's
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: a good person- that kills their three kids, we should say, oh,
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: it's a good person.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: She's a good person. And so that's okay. Or should
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: we just say all the time, what was the drugs
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that made her do it? It was the drugs that
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: made her do it. And so she killed three kids.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Too bad.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: No, I understand that's your opinion, Larry, but the whole
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: world had a chance to watch this trial. And apparently
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: there were a lot of people came to a different conclusion.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: I go with the jury decision.
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: Really?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: Jury made it. Hey, this is our system.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: I had to live with it. The jury didn't make
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: a decision. It was hung.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: I lived with a jury that by 11-1 allowed John
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Gotti Jr. to get off the hook for trying to
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: kill me and kidnap me, and I had to live
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: with it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: And they were wrong. You can say they were wrong, right?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: That was our system. But you can say they were wrong.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: In my eyes, yes, they're wrong. But they're not wrong.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: One holdout juror. But they're not wrong here.
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: You didn't say that wrong, Larry. But you're acting as
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: if you're judge, jury, and executioner here. And there's a
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: whole world of other persons out there, especially women, who've
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: had all kinds of circumstances, who are somewhat sympathetic and
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: empathetic to what women go through.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: We're screwed. You can kill three kids now. That's okay.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: You can do that now. And because you're going to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: get a sympathetic jury that's going to go, oh, that's
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a shame. She went through postpartum problems. By the way,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: she was never diagnosed with any of that. That was
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: entered into. She went to doctor after doctor after doctor.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: She never got diagnosed. Remember they kept saying she had
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: postpartum psychosis? Never got that diagnosis. I guess that should
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: be ignored, too.
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: Well, Dr.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: Phil, I think his credentials in this field are a
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: lot better than yours, right?
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Dr. Phil?
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Okay. Is his credentials better than yours? Because I have none, yes.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Anybody would be, even a quack.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: He said that there's no doubt she went through postpartum
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: psychosis and that that can happen on a spur of
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: the moment and is different than postpartum depression.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, we should ask Dr.
• 8:08
  Speaker 8: Oz.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Who are the other TV doctors we should check in with?
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Well, they were all Oprah's doctors, and now they're no
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: longer Oprah's friends. But there's a diversity of opinion on this,
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: and it tends to be men. side against the decision
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: of the jury, and women tend to be more empathetic
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: and sympathetic to the decision of the jury.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not siding with or without the jury. I am
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: siding with the three children. I'm siding with the victims.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: And she is not a victim. She isn't. No matter
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: how you spin it, she's not a victim. She's a killer.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: She's not a murderer, according to 11 people on a jury.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Thank God for the one holdout. But I do hope
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: they don't. I'm sure they're going to. They're not going
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: to want to spend money on this case again. They're
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: going to come up with some type of plea and
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: some settlement between the two of them, and they're going
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to be working on that. But I wish you'd at
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: least try it again, because I'd like to have more
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: faith in humankind.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: But so if the decision is 11-1, and it's obvious
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: that you're going to have a mixed jury the next
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: time you pick a jury— You'd want them to go
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: for a complete conviction on a criminal charge and not
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: guilty by reason of insanity.
• 9:26
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Something in the middle. I don't think she should have
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: life without parole. But yes, something in the middle would
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: would suit me. Second degree would suit.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Well, I have a feeling the D.A. Tim Cruz, who's
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: a Republican, by the way, is not going to go
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: that route, that they'll figure out some kind of plea deal.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: And I think because of her physical condition, she'll end
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: up in a psychiatric facility probably for the rest of
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: her natural life.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Well, maybe. I mean, there's so many that are let out,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: even though they are supposed to be put away forever.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: a long time. So who knows when she's going to
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: be out? I mean, maybe they're going to get some
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: doctors just like this jury that feel bad for her
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: and they're going to let her walk out. Maybe she'll
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: have kids again. Maybe she'll kill them. I'm completely disgusted
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: with all of this. I am. And I can't believe
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: all the discussions I hear. Nobody talks about the three kids.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Even that jury discounted them. Why? Because she killed three kids?
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: You would acknowledge there's a very noticeable gender divide on this.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Yes, from this jury there is. I mean, if I
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: talk to my wife, she wants her put away for good.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: She wants her put to death. Right, I understand.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: And they're going to be men or women who obviously
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: have different points of view. But just based on a
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: wide number of people I've talked to, it seems men
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: lock her up, throw away the key. Women more sympathetic
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: and empathetic and less likely to want to lock her up.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: On this jury, that was certainly true. I'd love to
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: hear what people have to say on that. Go ahead
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: and leave us a talkback. Go to the iHeartRadio app,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: go to the talkback section, hit the red microphone and
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: record what you want to say. We'll play it next.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: How do you feel about it? When we come back,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: a very, very popular place to go, Hershey, Pennsylvania, is
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: closing one of its, well, I won't say best rides,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: but one of its most well-known rides. We'll talk about
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: that coming back. Plus a chance to see Andrea Bocelli
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: at 825. Now, I told you the story a couple
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: of times, and I'm going to keep telling it because
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: it is just amazing. It is amazing that a small
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: town in California requires life vacs in every patrol car,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and we don't here. Most places on the East Coast don't.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: It's all in California, and it's all on the West Coast.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Every patrol car should have a life vac, and here's
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: the reason. A three-year-old boy was choking. And what happened?
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Patrol showed up. They had the life vac. They saved
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: his life. He would have died in the backseat of
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: his car at three years old if the patrolman didn't
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: have a life vac. Life vac has saved over 6,000
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: lives worldwide. And in case you don't know what life
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: vac is by now, life vac is the first and
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: only FDA authorized suction anti-choking device to be used for
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: second line treatment for When recommended choking procedures have been
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: followed without success. This little boy's parents tried everything. They
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: tried patting him on the back. They tried the Heimlich.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: He was choking on his own vomit and there was
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: nothing they could do. But LifeVac sucked it all right
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: out of him. 6,000 lives worldwide. And we just have
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: another one out in California. These are real people that
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: get a second chance. Real families that get to live on.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Preparedness matters. Having the right tool nearby can make all
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: the difference. Learn more about LifeVac at LifeVac.net. That's LifeVac.net.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Visit LifeVac.net and see how you can be ready when
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: it counts. It is kind of amazing. I've been to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Hershey a lot of times. And I've been to Hershey
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Park and been on the rides. I don't remember this ride, Natalie,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: for the life of me. The one that they're closing down.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Have you been on this ride, Curtis?
• 13:31
  Speaker 9: I haven't been on it, but I just watched it again.
• 13:34
  Speaker 9: And I absolutely remember it because there is an area
• 13:37
  Speaker 9: that you can stand. There's a bridge and there's a
• 13:40
  Speaker 9: walkway and you can just stand there and you wait
• 13:43
  Speaker 9: for it to come down. And this tidal wave comes
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: up and you get wet without even having to be
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: on the ride. So I remember just standing there waiting, waiting, waiting,
• 13:54
  Speaker 9: because my son wanted to get drenched when he was
• 13:57
  Speaker 9: like a little kid.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Apparently, it's their big attraction. How did I never... My
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: parents kept me away from that.
• 14:02
  Speaker 10: Well, maybe you didn't go in that area.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a 100-foot drop.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's huge.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: 100-foot drop. Now, they got 15 roller coasters.
• 14:10
  Speaker 11: Yeah, no, they're good roller coasters.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I've been on the roller coasters.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: Right, so this particular one, they're taking on a circulation.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: It doesn't mean the park is closing down.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: No.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: They have a big movie coming out about their finder,
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: the Thanksgiving Day weekend, which is a great family story.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: And it is an amusement park like no others. There's
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: no doubt about it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 12: I just got a text from Jimmy. This ride turns
• 14:40
  Speaker 12: into a wet T-shirt contest. Nobody wants to admit it,
• 14:43
  Speaker 12: but that's why it's famous with dads.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Jimmy. Would you ask Jimmy if they have
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: his picture up if he's banned from Hershey? Because that's
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a perverted thing to say.
• 14:59
  Speaker 12: Now I'm really rethinking why my 10-year-old wanted to stand there.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Wow, yeah. I never went. But it's closing down now.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: And apparently it made national news because it's that popular
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: of a ride.
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: Now we know why.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now I never knew why it was. I was
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: kept from a lot of things in my life. Man, anyway,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: so if you go to Hershey Park, you're not going
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: to be able to do the 100-foot drop.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: The title force. The title force ride is being taken
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: out of circulation.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Let's get to some talkbacks. We've been talking about
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: the jury, and we have a disparity of opinions, we
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: should say, on the jury. But here are some talkbacks.
• 15:48
  Speaker 13: The Rogue 11 in the Clancy trial had an agenda
• 15:53
  Speaker 13: all along.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: That can't be denied. They had an agenda all along.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: You have to go through a voir dire, a jury.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: They question you extensively. You listen. Then all of a
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: sudden you decide to deliberate. So I guess this guy
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: is saying before they even got on the jury that
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: They come to a preemptive decision on this case.
• 16:18
  Speaker 14: No.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: All 11 of them met somewhere, I guess. No. Because that's, yeah,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure the 11 were rogue in the death.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Maybe you meant another word.
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: I just want to know why the husband wasn't charged
• 16:32
  Speaker 8: with anything. He obviously knew something was wrong with her.
• 16:39
  Speaker 8: He could have protected those kids.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: There is a prevailing point of view that the husband,
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: who was the first witness and maybe the worst witness
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: of the prosecution, I think if they had to do
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: it all over again, they would not have put the
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: husband out there.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Because if you.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Had no sympathy or empathy for her before, this guy
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: was like a first-class jerk when he was giving his testimony.
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: And he seemed very cold, very insulated from what had
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: gone on.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of people. Look, our own Natalie Migliore.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: I felt this way as others, like this guy really
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: skated on this.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I guess women can't commit crimes because it had to
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: be the husband. It had to be anything else but
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: exactly who has already admitted to the crime.
• 17:27
  Speaker 7: Larry, I'm with you.
• 17:28
  Speaker 14: I'm with the three innocent babies that were killed. That's
• 17:33
  Speaker 14: who I'm standing behind. And you know, it's funny. This weekend,
• 17:37
  Speaker 14: my daughter-in-law was with us. She's a labor and delivery nurse.
• 17:40
  Speaker 14: And she was telling us that Most of the doctors
• 17:44
  Speaker 14: in her area were all siding with her.
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: I couldn't believe it.
• 17:51
  Speaker 14: They're blaming the husband. They said the husband did it.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: I don't get it.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: See that? Again, Natalie Migliore, who brought that to our attention,
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of people who hate that husband, who, again,
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: surfaced over the weekend for a photo opportunity somewhere in Manhattan.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: You got to ask yourself, How did you get involved
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: in a photo opportunity with paparazzi? I'm sorry. I guess
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: I just like to focus on the person that killed
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: three kids. Now let's get to Daria Albinger with the
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: 730 News.
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: Morning, guys.
• 18:22
  Speaker 11: It's going to be warmer and more humid today. We'll
• 18:25
  Speaker 11: see a high of 84 degrees. Kids in New York
• 18:27
  Speaker 11: City will head back to school tomorrow, but some may
• 18:30
  Speaker 11: not have buses to ride.
• 18:31
  Speaker 15: A spokesperson for the city's public school system claims that
• 18:34
  Speaker 15: a majority of students will have a proper route by
• 18:36
  Speaker 15: the first day of class, but thousands, including disabled students,
• 18:40
  Speaker 15: may be impacted. This follows tension between the city's Panel
• 18:43
  Speaker 15: for Educational Policy and bus vendors after the panel refused
• 18:47
  Speaker 15: to sign off on a five-year contract extension last year.
• 18:51
  Speaker 15: There is a plan to provide prepaid rideshare options for
• 18:54
  Speaker 15: any students without a bus route. However, some parents point
• 18:57
  Speaker 15: out that alternative does not work for every student as
• 19:00
  Speaker 15: some require one-on-one care from an aide. I'm Lizzie Radabali,
• 19:04
  Speaker 15: WOR News.
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: The U.S.

• 19:23
  Speaker 13: leaking from the Stonehouse Restaurant at Cloves Lake Park into
• 19:26
  Speaker 13: a nearby waterway for an unknown amount of time. The
• 19:29
  Speaker 13: New York Department of Environmental Conservation is investigating. There's been
• 19:32
  Speaker 13: no comment from the restaurant. A Parks Department spokesperson says
• 19:36
  Speaker 13: the restaurant does remain open and is following recommendations from
• 19:39
  Speaker 13: the DEC. I'm Scott Pringle, WOR News.
• 19:42
  Speaker 11: A change at airports after the 9-11 attacks may be
• 19:45
  Speaker 11: being phased out. The TSA is now allowing non-ticketed visitors.
• 19:49
  Speaker 11: at the gates at several U.S. airports, none here in
• 19:52
  Speaker 11: the area, though. At least not yet. You will need
• 19:55
  Speaker 11: to have pre-check or known traveler numbers, and you'll also
• 19:58
  Speaker 11: need to apply for a pass on the TSA website
• 20:00
  Speaker 11: up to three days in advance. American Ben Shelton has upset...
• 20:05
  Speaker 11: Carlos Alcaraz from Spain, and he's now headed to the

  Speaker 7: Open.
• 20:11
  Speaker 11: That match was five sets, and it took more than
• 20:14
  Speaker 11: four and a half hours to complete. New England and
• 20:16
  Speaker 11: Seattle meet tonight in the NFL's regular season opener. Next news,

• 20:24
  Speaker 4: Up next, good news for Bruce Blakeman and his run
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: against Hochul. A four-point differential in a McLaughlin poll will
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: bounce it off Rob Astorino up next. But this is
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: taken from the crime blotter. Dateline, Batavia, Illinois. It's 2.40
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: in the morning. A woman sees a flashlight and a
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: shadow outside her window. Police say the man in her
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: backyard was a registered sex offender. A military court convicted
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: him in 2024. He'd taken a sailor's key card, let
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: himself into her bedroom, and watched her sleep. He never
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: met the woman in Batavia. He saw her on social media,
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: researched her and found her home address.
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: Researched.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: Let me translate that word. A people search site will
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: sell a report on you for about two bucks. That
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: includes home address, phone, relatives, everywhere you lived, where you banked.
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: where you do your financing, in order to put up
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: a firewall, since that is legal, do what I do.

• 22:08
  Speaker 4: right now. On the line, Rob Astorino, former Westchester County executive,
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: and heard here on WOR 4 to 5 on Saturday. Rob,
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: Bruce Blakeman has been creeping up in the polls. He
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: was 20 points behind. Then a Siena poll had him
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: 10 points behind. A McLaughlin poll that just came out
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: yesterday has him four points behind. And there's only two
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: vulnerable areas. It said 30% of the sample didn't know
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: who Bruce Blakeman was. and obviously not doing well in
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: the city. If you were his political consigliere with less
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: than two months to go before election day, how would
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: you get him to address those two weak spots?
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: Well, I don't think 30% unknown is a weak spot
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: right now going into Labor Day as the Republican in
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: New York. That means you can define yourself still. That
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: means Kathy Hochul has not buried him. With all her money,
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: She still has not negatively buried him. So that's that's good, actually.
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: And to be within four or five points at this. Oh,
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: my God. You know what? I would have given my
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: kids up at this point to start Labor Day at
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: four down. Are you kidding me? So he's a look,
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: even if it's 10 down, he's in a great spot
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: in New York. And, you know, the city, look, you
• 23:32
  Speaker 7: got to scratch to 30, 35 percent in New York
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: City as a Republican to win statewide or you have
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: to have higher numbers in the suburbs or upstate. And
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: that's that's quite possible in this kind of year as well.
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: I mean, just look at the Jewish vote that, you know,
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: you would always kind of write off to some extent
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: other than the Jewish block vote. But that's also possible
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: coming in in the Republican way with everything going on
• 23:59
  Speaker 7: by the Democrats. So I think there's a lot of
• 24:02
  Speaker 7: different areas he can pick apart enough to to get
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: to 50 percent. And she's not at 50 percent in
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: these polls. I mean, that's the biggest red flag. If
• 24:10
  Speaker 7: you're an incumbent, everyone knows you and not enough people
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: are liking you right now. That's a real big problem
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: for an incumbent.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Hey, Rob, I want to talk to you about the
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: release of the 9-11 air quality papers yesterday. I got
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: pretty upset with it and angry about it because I
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: know so many people that died that were on at 9-11.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: I used to travel down to Washington with them. The
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: fact that these have been hidden for so long by
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: so many different administrations and so many different people There
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: has to be, doesn't there, a further investigation of this?
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I hope the feds get involved because they hid the
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: fact that that heir was killing people and killed people
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: for years. 9,000 have died. There has to be more
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: than just that news conference.
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's not only that, Larry, but the federal government,
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: you know, you have families suing the federal government and
• 25:08
  Speaker 7: winning in federal court. by exposing the Saudi government and
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: their role in it and the federal the U.S. government's
• 25:16
  Speaker 7: knowledge of that I mean there's a lot about 9-11
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: that we haven't been told and aside from what happened
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: that day and you know using as a pretext to
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: you know to go into Iraq and and do what
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: we did which is you know that's a total separate
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: issue but I think The United States government and obviously
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: now our city government and state government, I'm sure, had knowledge, too,
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: on the air quality. These are things that everyone has
• 25:45
  Speaker 7: an absolute right to know. Why did they set up
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: the 9-11 fund, you know, with so many people dying
• 25:52
  Speaker 7: and being diagnosed with basically 9-11 illnesses? You know, I
• 25:56
  Speaker 7: obviously knew the air quality was bad and they kept
• 26:01
  Speaker 7: it quiet. I mean, that's the sin of government.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: Now, Rob Bastarino, we've never before had a midterm convention
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: of any type, any party. But the president, Donald Trump,
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: has called for it. It begins today in Dallas. It'll
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: take place today and tomorrow. What is the messaging you
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: would like to see come out of this? Because it's
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: less than two months to go. Mail-in ballots are already
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: being sent out. Before you know it, it's early voting.
• 26:31
  Speaker 16: I don't want anything to talk about like Canada or
• 26:36
  Speaker 16: Iceland or renaming New Mexico or, you know, the silly stuff.
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: It has to focus on what the president and the
• 26:46
  Speaker 7: party has done, what the big, big, beautiful bill has
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: actually meant for working people. I mean, the economy is
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: doing pretty darn well when you look at it with,
• 26:57
  Speaker 7: With few exceptions that can actually and hopefully do change,
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: although we're running out of time. It's, you know, the
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: gas prices and the grocery prices that stick in everyone's crock.
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: But the value of people's homes and their stocks and
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: their pension fund and 401ks, any investment has gone through
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: the roof. Wages are up, unemployment's down. I mean, there's
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: a lot of good stories. They need to start telling this.
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: At the same time, the contrast between what life was
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: like and what it will be, the chaos of Biden
• 27:29
  Speaker 7: will come with this really, I mean, this next brand of, quote, Democrats,
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: if they take over the frightening stuff on their agenda.
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: I think it's going to come down, honestly, I think
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: rural America is going to make or break this campaign.
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: I'll tell you why. You know, that's part of the
• 27:48
  Speaker 7: Republican Party. And if they are kind of dejected right now,
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: you know, the farmers and the small business owners, And
• 27:56
  Speaker 7: they kind of stay home. That's it. We're done. If
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: they come out in full force, and I think that's
• 28:01
  Speaker 7: the reason why Trump is really appealing and why this
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: convention is happening, to remind them, get out. Okay, get out.
• 28:08
  Speaker 7: This might be temporary, but long-term change for the worse
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: is coming if you don't get out.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: But he's also kind of making it all about him,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: which the Democrats are going to look at that and say,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: please keep making it about you.
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: And Republican candidates are going to look like, no, no,
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: he didn't say that.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: He didn't say that. I remember when I was in office.
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: I still remember every day we would get a call
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: from the media or a microphone in my mouth about
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump answering something Donald Trump said. And it really
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: does cloud everything you do or want to get out.
• 28:42
  Speaker 7: And I think, you know, senators and those running and
• 28:46
  Speaker 7: members of the House and those running, they need breathing
• 28:49
  Speaker 7: space here. That's just typical. It's not against Trump because
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: Trump can pull out the base and this is going
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: to be a base vote.
• 28:55
  Speaker 14: So they do need his help.
• 28:56

• 30:56
  Speaker 4: As Natalie continues in the 9-11 commemoration this week, what
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: did you focus on this morning?
• 31:04
  Speaker 17: Really, nearly 25 years later, New York City's finally releasing
• 31:08
  Speaker 17: these air quality records that were in lower Manhattan following
• 31:11
  Speaker 17: the September 11th attacks and more than 170,000 pages released,
• 31:16
  Speaker 17: including internal memos raising concerns about the air quality. in
• 31:20
  Speaker 17: the initial consensus is that New Yorkers were misled, and
• 31:24
  Speaker 17: it really all comes as the attacks that killed more
• 31:27
  Speaker 17: than 3,000 people on September 11, 2001, or nearly, have
• 31:32
  Speaker 17: now led to the deaths of more than 6,000 people
• 31:35
  Speaker 17: due to 9-11-related illnesses. Now, Frank McCartan, affectionately known as Cookie,
• 31:40
  Speaker 17: was on the pile, and he was Deputy Commissioner of
• 31:43
  Speaker 17: New York City Emergency Management at the time of the attacks.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I could give you a list of people that have died.
• 31:49
  Speaker 18: This is a day that keeps on killing. This is
• 31:52
  Speaker 18: a day that keeps on killing. And we have to
• 31:55
  Speaker 18: realize that. And you have to get checked out. You
• 31:58
  Speaker 18: have to go. It took me a long time. My
• 32:01
  Speaker 18: friends used to say, why did you do it? And
• 32:03
  Speaker 18: then I had to have something.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Happen to me.
• 32:04
  Speaker 18: And then I end up under surgery. And luckily enough,
• 32:08
  Speaker 18: everything's fine. But you have to do this. You have
• 32:11
  Speaker 18: to go get checked out. Don't be scared.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Just do it.
• 32:13
  Speaker 18: And it's the health of the people. And listen, the
• 32:15
  Speaker 18: mental health, right? You know, when you get closer this day,
• 32:17
  Speaker 18: I get a little more, you know, it's coming, right?
• 32:23
  Speaker 18: And then when it finishes, you know, I'm a little
• 32:25
  Speaker 18: more at ease, right?
• 32:27
  Speaker 17: Yeah, it's not just the health effects of all those
• 32:29
  Speaker 17: years ago, but those mental health effects, the memories that
• 32:32
  Speaker 17: people have. Now, officials say the new documents may have
• 32:35
  Speaker 17: information to help those with 9-11-related illnesses. A former longtime
• 32:41
  Speaker 17: New York City reporter, Peter Haskell, who was at Ground Zero,
• 32:45
  Speaker 17: is so dedicated to the cause. He works with Tunnel
• 32:49
  Speaker 17: to Towers Foundation, and he made sure his last story
• 32:53
  Speaker 17: on radio was related to 9-11 health.
• 32:57
  Speaker 10: People are still suffering today. People who tried to do
• 33:00
  Speaker 10: the right thing to help their city, to help their country,
• 33:03
  Speaker 10: were sickened. Those people cannot be forgotten. They need to
• 33:06
  Speaker 10: be helped. They need to be treated. And these programs
• 33:09
  Speaker 10: need to be kept alive.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: And they're funded.
• 33:12
  Speaker 10: But they need to have bodies filling those spots in
• 33:16
  Speaker 10: these various programs, especially the World Trade Center Health Program.
• 33:19
  Speaker 17: Yeah, and the World Trade Center Health Program officially recognizes
• 33:22
  Speaker 17: over 70 types of cancers linked to the toxins following
• 33:26
  Speaker 17: Ground Zero. New data from Northwell Health shows cancer cases
• 33:30
  Speaker 17: have already jumped 75% from 2023 to.
• 33:32
  Speaker 11: 2024 in connection to this.
• 33:33
  Speaker 18: So really.
• 33:38
  Speaker 17: These are real snippets of interviews, way longer interviews that
• 33:41
  Speaker 17: I've had with these gentlemen who were there that day,
• 33:44
  Speaker 17: who were there in the months following the 9-11 attacks.
• 33:48
  Speaker 17: And it's just really something they've watched their friends die,
• 33:52
  Speaker 17: not just on that day, but in years to come.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: The one gentleman said that he had some illness. Did
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: everybody that you talked to, did anyone else talk about
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: having any 9-11 related illness?
• 34:08
  Speaker 11: Yes, and yes, in a sense.
• 34:11
  Speaker 17: A lot of people do. Even another reporter who I
• 34:14
  Speaker 17: talked to has 9-11-related illnesses.
• 34:17
  Speaker 11: So a lot of people, they have that.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. And they're still dying.
• 34:23
  Speaker 11: Yes, of course.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Yes. Natalie Migliore is going to be back tomorrow morning
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: with another 9-11 report at 7.50. We're going to continue
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: the coverage of the air quality on 9-11 and the
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: fact that the city covered it up. Shame on them.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: That's coming up after the 8 o'clock news.
