• 1:11
  Speaker 1: It was a verdict that outraged our viewers. How could
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: a man who admitted to stabbing and dismembering someone not
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: get life in prison?
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: The case begins with a couple in love and their
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: trip to a place known as Devil's Island. Here's Michelle
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Sagona Chris.
• 1:25
  Speaker 6: It was supposed to be a fresh start, two lovers
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: dropping everything to love, a life of leisure and a
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: tropical paradise, but it wouldn't play out that way. Instead,
• 1:35
  Speaker 6: it would be a trip marred by broken promises, betrayal,
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: and blood.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: A young couple sets out on the adventure of a lifetime,
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: but only one of them comes back. A trail of deception.
• 1:52
  Speaker 9: From Panama to Costa Rica to southern California.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: A history of violence.
• 2:00
  Speaker 10: There were reports of incidents both ways.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: From the island, a gruesome discovery and a family torn apart.
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: He slipped the top of it open with his machete
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: and school rolled out.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: It was here among the sun splashed beaches of southern
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: California where Yvonne Baldelli grew up.
• 2:24
  Speaker 11: She had one older sister and one older brother.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: She was the baby of the family at the time.
• 2:29
  Speaker 8: She was fourteen when we got married. I just loved her.
• 2:32
  Speaker 8: She was very special and she was a very happy person.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: But at nearly forty years old, the fashion of dog
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: lover with the infectious smile, seemed a bit lost, bouncing
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: from job to job, unsure of what she really wanted
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: out of life. Then she met a strong, six foot
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: two Midwestern man named Brian Brimager.
• 2:56
  Speaker 9: He served in the Marine Corps, and there are people
• 2:58
  Speaker 9: liked him. He had a gregarious personality. I think women
• 3:00
  Speaker 9: found him attractive, and upon Baldelli certainly did.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: But just how positive was that attraction.
• 3:06
  Speaker 9: She was obviously very smitten with him, almost to the
• 3:10
  Speaker 9: detriment of anybody else.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: In her life, and there were more than a few
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: little problems with that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: Mister Brimager was married at the time and was in
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: other relationships, but was seeing her.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: How much Yvonne knew about Brian's wife or any other
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: women when they met isn't completely certain, but at some
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: point during their affair she not only found out, she
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: went public.
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: She wrote a letter to Brimager's then wife describing the
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: relationship that Brimmager had with her that he had with
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: another woman by the name of Kristen Werkovin. So she
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: was aware that Brimager was not being faithful to her.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: And that should have been the end of Brian Brimager
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: and Devonne Baldelli instead. Brian eventually divorced, and over the
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: next few years he and Devonne maintained an on again,
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: off again relationship. Then suddenly things were on in a
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: very big way.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Whose idea was it for them to move to Panama.
• 4:06
  Speaker 8: Her words to me was that Brian came home and
• 4:10
  Speaker 8: he says, I'm retiring. At that time, she had lost
• 4:14
  Speaker 8: her job.
• 4:15
  Speaker 11: He told her forget about the job search. We're going
• 4:17
  Speaker 11: to Panama.
• 4:18
  Speaker 12: And she sold everything she had here in California, so.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: You knew she meant business.
• 4:22
  Speaker 10: She was serious.
• 4:24
  Speaker 11: She told me she was going to design clothes and
• 4:26
  Speaker 11: sell them on the beach.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: She had a plan.
• 4:29
  Speaker 11: Yes, she had a plan, and she was so happy.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: And so with only a few sewing machines and Georgia
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: May the King Charles Spaniel, she considered her child. If
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Vaughn took Brian's hand all the way to the small
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: ex pat community of Bocas del Toro, Panama.
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: They settled in fairly quickly into the island of Isla Canaro.
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: Bremager was playing the guitar at local bars. She was
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: attempting to work.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: But, according to multiple witnesses, thanks and are to a
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: never ending supply of booze and coke. It soon became
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: a paradise lost.
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: It wasn't long after they got to Panama when things
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: really took a turn, and would you say the violence
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: began to escalate.
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, the violence began to escalate almost immediately when they
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: arrived in Panama.
• 5:22
  Speaker 10: What the landlord said is that every time they were together,
• 5:25
  Speaker 10: she observed Miss Baldelli being jealous and trying to push
• 5:29
  Speaker 10: and prod mister Brimmager.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: But Brian pushed right back and then.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: Some We have multiple witnesses who have all corroborated and
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: told us about the numerous times when Brian would punch Yvonne,
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: when Brian would strangle Yvonne, when Brian would kick her.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: Her neighbor could hear it through the walls.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: Did Yvonne ever reach out to anyone and say, I
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: don't know what to do?
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: You know, Yvonne had multiple people on the island did
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: come to her, and her response wasn't to deny the violence,
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: but was to describe it as something that she could handle.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: But handle how On the night of November eighth, just
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: over a month after they first arrived, Yvonne and Brian
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: got into a heated argument.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Do you believe Yvonne was a victim of domestic violence?
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 6:19
  Speaker 10: Absolutely?
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Do you believe Brian Brimager was a victim of domestic violence?
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: Absolutely?
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: Sometime during the fight, Brian turned his back and Yvonne snapped.
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: Miss bell Delli took Brian's computer they had two laptops
• 6:35
  Speaker 10: at the time, took the laptop and smashed it on him.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: After that, the couple's neighborhood, Yvonne quote screaming, bloody murder,
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: a series of loud thugs, and then nothing at all
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: for two days, no sign of Yvonne, but then both
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: she and Brian appear in town. Yvonne concealing her face
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: behind dark sunglasses.
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: There's photographs that she took from her own laptop of
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: her left eye having a massive bruise.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: As records would later show, Brian punched her in the
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: face after she hit him with the laptop.
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: The laptop broke. That had an unintended consequence. The consequence
• 7:20
  Speaker 10: is that they were now both checking their email on
• 7:23
  Speaker 10: the same laptop. Miss Baldelli had somebody installed software on
• 7:27
  Speaker 10: that laptop to get mister Brimmager's email password.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: And that's when she found out that the entire time
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: Brian had been in Panama with her, he was emailing
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: his other old blame, Kristin Wurkoven, and not.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: Just that, he was saying, I'll be back home to
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: spend time if you would help raise our daughter. And
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: of course this is all without Yvonne Baldelli knowing about
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: the fact that he even had a daughter.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: Apparently, while Brian was married to his first wife and
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: at the same time dating Yvonne, he had also fathered
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: a secret child with Kristen.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: Yvonne just had no idea.
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: She had no idea. She was blind to the fact
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: that he was living a double life.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: The date was November twenty sixth, According to court records.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Yvonne woke Brian up screaming about what she'd found.
• 8:16
  Speaker 10: She got very angry. They got into a fight.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: That fight escalated, then at some point during the day,
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: Yvonne sat down at her computer to write a letter.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: A little over two weeks later, a playing touchdown in
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: San Diego, only Brian stepped off.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Do people think where's the yvon they do coming up?
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: Brian was telling people she was just off with another
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: man in Costa Rica.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: Where did Yvonne Baldelli go and sadistic taunts point in
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: a disturbing direction.
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: That individual hosted a comment saying I only used it
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: to dismember one stripper.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Now back to today's mystery Island of Lost Dreams, On
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Baldelli and her boyfriend and ex marine have relocated to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a vacation paradise looking for a fresh start. Now is
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Michelle's gonna pick up the story? That move would instead
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: set off a sinister chain of events filled with lies, mystery,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: and multiple lovers.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: When Ivonne Baldelli moved to Panama with her boyfriend Brian,
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: she thought it was to start a new life together.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: But apparently they weren't both on the same page, and
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: when a return flight touched down in San Diego just
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: a few months later, they weren't both on that either.
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: He flies back to the United States, and he eventually
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: goes and gets his truck. He has to pick up
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: his trots right from Yvonne's sister, Michelle Valenzuela.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: Before Brian and Devon left, Brian parked a truck full
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: of his things at Avon's sister's house. And if not
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: for that pickup, who knows where this story might have gone.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: So he has to face the sister.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: It does, and she asks Brian where my sister.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: In fact, no one in Evonne's family had heard from
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: her in weeks, not since Yvonne found out Brian had
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: been emailing a woman named Kristin Wurkven, the mother of
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: a child Yvonne didn't even know Brian had.
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: It was unusual that when Brian came back that Michelle
• 10:20
  Speaker 9: had not heard her from her for over three weeks,
• 10:24
  Speaker 9: and that concerned her.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: But was everyone just making a big fuss over nothing?
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: What Brian told people was that she had found out
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: on his computer that he had a daughter with Kristen Wrokovid,
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: and that she had become angry about this information and
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: decided to leave with another man to Costa Rica.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: And as it turns out, just a few days after
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: that big November twenty sixth fight, Yvonne and Brian's Panamanian
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: landlord received an email from Evon's address confirming as much.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: It read, Hey, nae Ay, Brian is a lying, cheating
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: expletive and I just couldn't stand dealing with it anymore.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: I'm in Costa Rica for a while with a guy
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: I met at one of Brian's gigs when we first
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: moved here. We've been talking off and on since then,
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: and it's great to be spending time with someone who
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: can be considered a gentleman.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Michelle is immediately suspicious.
• 11:19
  Speaker 9: In fact, Michelle told Brian, I want to go to
• 11:23
  Speaker 9: the police and report her, missy.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: And what did he say?
• 11:27
  Speaker 9: He said, why don't you just wait on that. Let
• 11:29
  Speaker 9: me try to reach out to her, contact her by
• 11:32
  Speaker 9: email and see if she'll get in touch.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: And not long after that it seemed she did in
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: the email, and Vonne tells Michelle she's alive and well
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: and should be home in a few weeks for a
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: big family reunion. It was two days after Christmas when
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: Michelle sent her reply. So glad you responded, didn't want
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: a pry or bug, but I was worried. Wanted to
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: make sure you weren't kidnapped and someone pretending it was
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: you haha. After that, the emails from Evonne stopped, despite
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: repeated desperate please from her family to get in touch.
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: And I said, whatever you need, we just need you
• 12:10
  Speaker 8: to be okay, and we're not going to judge you.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: We just contact us.
• 12:13
  Speaker 11: We just need to.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: Know you're okay, And then came time for that big
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: family reunion, the one Yvonne said she would try to attend.
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: January twelfth comes around. The family gathering is there. Yvonne
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: doesn't show up. My heart drops, So you knew that
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: was sort of the last stop in all of it.
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: If she doesn't show up for this family gathering, then
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: it's going to be all hands on deck.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: Almost immediately, Yvonne's sister starts her own investigation.
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: She enlists the help of a tech savvy relative, who
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: then starts to look at the origin of where the
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: emails from Yvonne's account were coming from.
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: Michelle found out that the emails had come from California,
• 12:58
  Speaker 8: Southern California.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: More specific, the emails were actually coming from where Brian Bremager.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: Was living, and perhaps the most suspicious part of all
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: who Brian was living with, the woman he'd been emailing
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: in Panama, the mother of his secret child, and most
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: shocking to Avon's family, his brand new bride, Kristin, wore COVID.
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: So Brian comes back to the United States gets engaged
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: to Kristen just within days, yes, within days.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Thin two days, within two days, He's engaged engaged and
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: he was married that same month.
• 13:35
  Speaker 8: Somebody forwarded me the registry from his new wife.
• 13:41
  Speaker 11: I screamed. I screamed hysterically in the house. My husband
• 13:46
  Speaker 11: got up and look at this.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Were you enraged?
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: I was angry?
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: And Michelle went to the local sheriff's office and actually
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: filed a missing person's review.
• 13:57
  Speaker 11: Yeah, actually she wasn't gonna report of missing. She was
• 13:59
  Speaker 11: with murder because she had felt that that's what had happened,
• 14:04
  Speaker 11: that she was murdered.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: Coming up the local saw them going towards a boat dock.
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: That is the last time she has ever seen alive.
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: And we get to a shallow area and there were
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: like these garbage facts that were torn and there were
• 14:19
  Speaker 8: bones alof.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: We returned to our crime watched daily mystery Island of
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Lost Dreams.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Michelle Sigona is back.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: Michelle Chris Yvonne Baldelli is missing after moving to Panama
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: with her boyfriend, and her.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: Family is beyond worried.
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: When that boyfriend comes back home to California and almost
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: immediately marries another woman.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: They looked like two people who have been in love
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: their whole lives. You'd never know that just a few
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: weeks before these wedding photos were taken, the groom, Brian Brimager,
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: was living in Panama with another woman's a woman now
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: missing and depending on who you are asked, presumed murdered.
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: The last time was she was seen alive was when
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: a local saw them going towards a boat dock and
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: they were fighting and Bremager was dragging her by the
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: arm back to the boat.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: It was shortly after she discovered Brian's secret correspondence with Kristen,
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: but Brian said it was actually Yvonne who left him
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: for someone else ran off to Costa Rica, was some
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: mystery man. Curiously, Yvonne's bank card had been used at
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: a Costa Rican ATM around the same time.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: Something was definitely wrong because not only was she missing,
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: but who else was missing?
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: With her?
• 15:39
  Speaker 12: Her dog?
• 15:40
  Speaker 11: She couldn't have kids, so that was her baby. She
• 15:43
  Speaker 11: would have never left her dog.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: So with all the fake emails Brian sent posing as
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Yvonne in hand, Yvonne's sister Michelle filed a report with
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: authorities and Brian was brought in for questioning.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: He did sit and agree to speak with the FBI
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: when it was still mostly a missing person's investigation.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: But he told them the same Costa Rican romance. He
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: told everyone else, what did you do?
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: I called the Costa Rican embassy to see if she
• 16:13
  Speaker 8: really went to Costa Rica, and she said nobody but
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: that passport ever entered the country.
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: Even more troubling.
• 16:21
  Speaker 8: When I call the American embassy in Panama, they said
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: that she never left Panama. You know, I said, we
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: gotta do something.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: So, working in conjunction with American and Panamanian authorities, Yvonne's
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: family flew to Bogus del Toro to start their own search.
• 16:39
  Speaker 8: We by ourselves quietly walked all around the island as
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: far as we could go, and then went back the
• 16:46
  Speaker 8: other way as.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Far as we could go.
• 16:48
  Speaker 11: And we would do that every day, and we would
• 16:50
  Speaker 11: look everywhere.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: Grueling work for anyone, let alone Evonne's aging parents.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: There hadn't been any proof she had been murdered, and
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: certainly no proof that she had been murdered by Brimager.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: What authorities did have was a growing mountain of circumstantial
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: evidence for one those fake emails.
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: He was flat out asked, did you impersonate Yvonne?
• 17:12
  Speaker 11: Yes?
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: And he said, nah, that's right.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: In addition to that, there were upsetting reports out of
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: Panama of Brian suddenly flushed with cash after Yvonne's disappearance,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: buying everyone in the bar drinks while toasting her name.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: And as for those atm withdrawals tying Yvonne to Costa Rica,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: turns out, when Brian left Panama to come back to
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: the States, he made one little stop along the way.
• 17:40
  Speaker 9: He purposely took a trip to Costa Rica to bolsters
• 17:44
  Speaker 9: storing to withdraw money from Levon's account to make it
• 17:46
  Speaker 9: look like she had been to Costa Rica.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: But of all the damning clues, there was one that
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: stood out as particularly disturbing. Apparently, Yvonne wasn't all Brian
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: left behind on the island.
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: Mister Brimig had brought a machete down to Panama with him.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: Then he had given the machete in exchange for a
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: debt of the ode to a local Panamanian person that
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: was there on the island.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: That person then put the machete up for sale on
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: a local website.
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: And mister Brimager happened to have seen that it was
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: up for sale, and he logged into that site and
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: he posted a comment saying, don't worry. That machete was mine.
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: I brought her from the United States. It's barely been used.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: I only used it to dismember one stripper.
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: A terrible joke or something more. Police bring the machete
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: to the States for testing, but it comes back clean.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: And after over a year of searching for Evonne and Panama,
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: the family comes back with little more than a collection
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: of traumatic moments like this.
• 18:45
  Speaker 8: We get to a shallow area and they were like
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: these carbage bags that were torn.
• 18:53
  Speaker 11: And there were bones all over.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: They would later turn out to be animal bones. But
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Yvonne's parents were forced to leave the island before getting confirmation.
• 19:05
  Speaker 11: And when we.
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: Had to leave the island, and when we had to
• 19:08
  Speaker 8: leave the country, I could not live with myself thinking
• 19:13
  Speaker 8: that I left her behind and that that maybe those
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: are her bones.
• 19:18
  Speaker 9: She had a nervous breakdown and had to be hospitalized.
• 19:22
  Speaker 9: Going through all that and not being able to bring
• 19:24
  Speaker 9: yvon back was just very devastating.
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: At this point, Yvonne's family is sacrificing so much time, money,
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: energy searching for their loved one.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Brian Brimager's back here in San Diego.
• 19:39
  Speaker 9: Doing what he's living the life of Riley. He is
• 19:42
  Speaker 9: going to school, he's golfing. Kristen and Brian then had
• 19:47
  Speaker 9: another kid, and.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Through it all, Brian maintained his same old story, one
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: that was rapidly unraveling.
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: He denied doing anything other than just knowing she had
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: read off with another man. Once we were able to
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: review the contents of his computer and interview him, it
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: became very clear to us that he was the one
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: that was involved coming up. This is one of the
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: most tragic parts of this case.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: Does justice come too late?
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Mister Bremager really took both.
• 20:19
  Speaker 11: Of their daughters.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: The motto of the US Marine Corps is semper fidelis.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: It means always faithful.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: However, ex Marine Brian Brimmager has been anything but that.
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: Michelle Chris Brimmager had moved with Yvonne to Island Paradise
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: in Panama, but just a few weeks after she goes missing,
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: he marries the mother of his secret love child. So
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: at first he's charged and arrested. Where's he taken down?
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: He was arrested in his home in Carlsback, California, which
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: is actually the home of Kristen Workover.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: The woman Brian married right after coming back from Panama
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: without Yvonne.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Initially, he was charged with obstruction of justice and making
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: faults statements to federal officers when he was interviewed. He
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: lied about having Yvonne's computer, lied about beating Yvonne, lied
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: about impersonating her through emails. He lied about multiple things
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: with the intent to obstruct justice.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: It wasn't the charge of Vonn's family was hoping for,
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: but at the very least, Brian was off the streets. Still.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: Even when confronted with his own lies, Brian continued to
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: deny having anything to do with Vonn's disappearance. But then,
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: roughly one month after his arrest, breaking news out of Panama.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: There was a Panamanian man who lived out in the
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: middle of this jungle, and he was building a trail
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: from his hut out to the coast, and he was
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: chopping away with his machete, and he came across a
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: military style duffel bag. He slit the top of it
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: open with his machete, and Yvonne's skull rolled out in
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: front of him.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: Are all of the body parts there?
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: No, they were not able to find an entire skeleton.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: What was that night like?
• 22:07
  Speaker 12: For you, because they didn't find all her remains.
• 22:10
  Speaker 13: That was hard to know that there's pieces of her missing.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: Large uniformed cuts in many of the bones till at
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: least part of the gory tale.
• 22:21
  Speaker 11: It's just very hard to think that she was.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Top fun.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: But even with Vonn's remains found, Brian remained silent while
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: the prosecution worked with Avon's family to build its case.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately for the prosecution, star witness time was running out.
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: You know, this is one of the most tragic parts
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: of this case. Yvonn's sister, Michelle Valenzuela, was diagnosed with
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: breast cancer. During the time that she was so desperately
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: trying to find her sister and so desperately trying to
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: find justice for her sister, she wasn't taking proper care
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: of herself. She was so focused on her sister that
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: she missed a lump in her breast.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: By the time her sister's body was finally found that
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: cancer had metastasized to Michelle's brain.
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: They weren't certain how much longer she would be available
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: and coherence, and so we sought an emergency deposition of
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: a potential witness because we didn't believe that she would
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: be able to make it all the way to trial.
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: Good afternoons, value, good afternoon, How are you?
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: I'm quie.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: For as long as she could.
• 23:33
  Speaker 11: This is my sister, Vaughn both Deli.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: Michelle sat across the table from the man she knew
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: killed her sister and set her peace.
• 23:42
  Speaker 9: Since dropping off at the airport. We had to defendant,
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: did you ever see your sister again?
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: Brian said nothing. I was saying that he murdered my sister.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: After the deposition, we wheeled her back to the hotel room.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: She asked how she did. We told her she did great,
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: and she went to sleep and she never regained consciousness again.
• 24:14
  Speaker 11: You know, you couldn't have had a better sister than
• 24:20
  Speaker 11: Michelle's a champion.
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: She as a champion to use the last moments of
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: her life to sit down and to give everything she could.
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: It was one of the strongest demonstrations of strength and
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: fortitude that I've ever seen. Mister Bremager really took both
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: of their daughters.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: But still Brian copped to nothing, something that was about
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: to become much harder to do because of one key
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: piece of evidence.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: That machete was found.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: It was anima he needed to get her to be
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: small enough to fit in the backpack.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: Coming up shocking first hand details about what happened that night.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: We believe this is Kristen's house.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: Tough questions for Brian's new bride.
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: Someone's coming.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Even after his ex girlfriend's body was found macheted in
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: the jungle, after he sat across from her dying sister
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: during her last moments on earth, Even with all the
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: evidence pointing right back at him, Brian Brimager still denied
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: having anything to do with Ivonne Baldelli's murder. But that
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: was about to become much harder to do.
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: Over a year after it had originally been tested and
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: they had found no blood, we were examining the machete
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: in preparation for trial and we found that the handle
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: could be removed. They removed the handle and found that
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: there was blood under the handle, the same DNA as
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: Yvon Baldelli.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: When confronted with that news, Brian Brimager sat down with
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: his lawyers and finally started talking.
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: We were ready to go to trial, and he pled
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: guilty approximate in one month before trial.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: It started just as Brian said it had so many
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: years before.
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: Around the time for death, that the victim had logged
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: onto his account and had found out that mister Brimager
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: had another relationship with Kristin Werkowin had a child.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: Brian's defense claims that a violent, a day long fight ensued,
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: culminating in Avonne pulling a knife. Brian fought back, beating
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: Avon before getting hold of the knife and using it
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: to fatally stab her in the back. Then things really
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: got gruesome.
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: He said that after he had stabbed her in the back,
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: he knew that he needed to move her and bury
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: in the jungle, and in order to do that, he
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: needed to get her to be small enough to fit
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: in a backpack.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: And so, in his own words, Brian Brimager dragged his
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: girlfriend into the bathroom and used his machete to dismember her. Then,
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: to make it look like she really did just run
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: off with all her things, he killed her dog.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: What the dog's remains ever found?
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: No, they were not.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: But what really started that final fight? Was there? A
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: deeper motive? Evidence found on Ivanne's computer begged the question.
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: She had drafted a letter entitled work covin the name
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: of Kristen Workhoven. We believe that she intended to send
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: that letter and intended to make sure that Brian's plans
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: to return and live with Kristen and raise his daughter
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: weren't going to happen, and he wasn't gonna let her talk,
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: so he killed her.
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: The US Attorney's Office does believe the motive is that
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: he wanted to silence her.
• 27:47
  Speaker 10: I don't think that holds water, you don't, I don't.
• 27:50
  Speaker 10: I think this was a fight that escalated and then
• 27:52
  Speaker 10: he had to figure out what to do. I think
• 27:55
  Speaker 10: it was a huge mistake. He found himself in that
• 27:58
  Speaker 10: moment Panama, not knowing what to do and having to
• 28:04
  Speaker 10: make terrible decisions.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: But if it really was all just a heat of
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: the moment situation, what about Brian's behavior after he got
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: off the island, probably.
• 28:15
  Speaker 9: The most heinous and cool acts he committed, or what
• 28:18
  Speaker 9: he put that family through in making them believe that
• 28:22
  Speaker 9: Vaughan was still alive given the false hopes she was
• 28:25
  Speaker 9: still alive.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: And then there was that Facebook comment about using his
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: machete to quote dismember one stripper?
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: Is there any response for that?
• 28:37
  Speaker 12: What he did was in terrible taste, but it wasn't
• 28:43
  Speaker 12: to denigrate her memory or because he's cold blooded. It
• 28:48
  Speaker 12: was to make everybody look away, to Flant.
• 28:52
  Speaker 10: It was a deflection. Brian, I think, remains remorseful and
• 28:56
  Speaker 10: remains repentant.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Yvonne's parents have strong opinions about what Brian can do
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: with his remorse.
• 29:04
  Speaker 11: There's no way I believe that he's sorry.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: In the end, Brian was sentenced to twenty six years
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: in federal prison, which means no chance of parole.
• 29:14
  Speaker 11: May twenty fifth was the sentencing. May twenty eighth. We
• 29:18
  Speaker 11: were able to take Yvonne back to San Diego, close
• 29:23
  Speaker 11: to where her home was and give her a sendoff
• 29:26
  Speaker 11: that was dignified. That was something worthy of Yvonne.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: Justice has been served for Yvonne's killer, but what about
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: the woman who, even to this day, continues to stand
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: by his side.
• 29:40
  Speaker 8: The beginning of when some people start making comments about
• 29:43
  Speaker 8: his wife, my husband said, you know, she's a victim,
• 29:48
  Speaker 8: like Yvonne was a victim.
• 29:50
  Speaker 11: Let's be patient. But now after she knows what Yvonne suffered.
• 29:56
  Speaker 11: He broke her nose and broke her job, broke her tear.
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: Stabbed her over and over and over again, and chopped
• 30:03
  Speaker 8: her up a little pieces and threw her in a swamp?
• 30:07
  Speaker 11: Is she supporting the man that destroyed Yvonne? I'm sorry,
• 30:11
  Speaker 11: I don't have any understanding for her.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: And we wanted to help Ivonn's parents find that understanding.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: So we set our own Jason Mattera to Kristen's home
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: to try and get some answers.
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: Let's see what Kristen has to say for herself. Does
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: she still support her husband after what he pleaded guilty to?
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: Someone's coming?
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: Jason Mattera with Crime Watch Daily.
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: Is Kristen here?
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: Can you open the door? Is Kristin Kristen your daughter?
• 30:44
  Speaker 7: Is there a Kristen that lives here? Jason Mattera with
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: Crime Watch Daily, We're doing a story about Kristen's husband's conviction. Brian.
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: She doesn't live here? Where does she where?
• 30:59
  Speaker 9: No?
• 30:59
  Speaker 11: Where does she lived?
• 31:00
  Speaker 7: Do you know her? Miss?
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: The woman behind the door refuses to open up, but
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: we had to try one more time to get Kristen's
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: side of the story.
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: Just had a question on whether Kristen still stands by
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: Brian or not. Brian's attorney says that she still supports him,
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: odd considering what he's convicted of.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: After several more minutes of knocking, we're forced to leave
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: without the answers we came for. Repeated calls to kristin
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: Workoven by our producers have also gone unanswered. So for now,
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: this is where we're left. Two daughters lost, a family
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: fractured but not broken.
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: We pray and we look forward to when they've seen
• 31:47
  Speaker 8: them again, to hug them again and.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: Tell them how much we love them.
• 31:51
  Speaker 11: Moments we missed them, that's her.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Twenty six years hardly seems like enough time for a
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: guy like this.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Now we want to hear from you.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: If your husband was accused of a horrible crime like this,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: would you stay by his side like Grimmager's wife is
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: doing sound off right now on our Facebook page, coming
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: up disorder in his courtroom, But this judge is not
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: having it.
• 32:17
  Speaker 13: Ninety three days in the county jail stand off and.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: When things really begin to escalate, see how far I
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: went to protect a woman from her crazy stalker.
• 32:28
  Speaker 13: I had to make a decision to act hes just
• 32:30
  Speaker 13: sit on the sidelines and let people become victims.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Next, This next guy got an overwhelming two thumbs up
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: from our viewers on social media. A Michigan judge who
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: decided to hop off the bench and get involved when
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: a defendant became unruly. It was a decision that would
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: go viral instantly in a terrified woman.
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: I don't even know him, so I just don't understand
• 32:56
  Speaker 8: how he's like so obsessed and like keeps messaging.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Me trying to escape a stalker with no regrets. I
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: want heard her tell me to leave her alone. You
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: know what, I told you, to leave her alone. But
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: he's about to have one big one stand on messing
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: with the wrong judge. Your hand behind the mat on
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: his home turn Hey man, right now.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: It all went down here in Jackson County, Michigan, where
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Judge John McBain prides himself on maintaining order.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: In his court.
• 33:34
  Speaker 13: I'm known as kind of a no nonsense, law abiding
• 33:37
  Speaker 13: judge and I don't tolerate disorder and disruption in my
• 33:40
  Speaker 13: court room.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Today he meets his match, an alleged stalker named Jacob Larsen,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: with no apparent respect for the law or the bench.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: It's the defendant second time before Judge McBain. The first
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: time he only slapped Larsen with the restraining order demanding
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: he stay away from a former high school class.
• 34:00
  Speaker 13: You're out there hanging out of her place's employment.
• 34:03
  Speaker 9: You're putting things all over car.
• 34:05
  Speaker 13: Her managers have got to come in there.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: And ask you to leave, but he violated it within hours.
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: I have messages from October night after we got out
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: of court, and then I have some from the twenty third.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Now his frightened victim is forced to face her tormentor
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: in court again. Thankfully, this judge is determined to make
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: her feel safe.
• 34:28
  Speaker 13: She was just absolutely terrified of this guy.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen it before.
• 34:32
  Speaker 13: Some of these stalkers can be dangerous people.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Her seat is just a few feet from Marten, but
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: their stories couldn't be further apart.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: She's instigating.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: Why do you feel that she's instigating?
• 34:45
  Speaker 9: But she's posting pictures and whatnot.
• 34:47
  Speaker 8: Direct it to me.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: All like a lot of makeup aired on.
• 34:53
  Speaker 9: All that stuff, like full nine. She's you know, subtly
• 34:58
  Speaker 9: and mean on Twitter.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: So true.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: I don't have him on Facebook, I don't have him
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: on Twitter.
• 35:03
  Speaker 6: I have him on no social media whatsoever.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: My Twitter is private.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Judge mc bain tells the accused talker. It's all like
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: the movie Fatal Attraction. But it seems this defendant is
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: writing his own.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Lines I want he tell me to leave her alone.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: You know what, I told you to leave her alone,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: and apparently that didn't give true loud and clear.
• 35:22
  Speaker 9: So today you're going to jail for three days.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: That's when the defendant makes a ridiculous claim you.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: And Judge McBain loses his patience.
• 35:33
  Speaker 9: You got a bad attitude.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: You got a bad attitude. Last time you're over.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: You want her our body body forty five days county jail.
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: Okay, ninety three days in the county jail.
• 35:46
  Speaker 13: You want to go for a year, or try it
• 35:48
  Speaker 13: right now, one more more dot of you.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: It will be a year of counting over Facebook, brilliant.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Ninety three days is how? Stand up?
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Bloody, bloody more stand up.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: You're going to jail.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Per year in account three hundred and sixty five days
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: county jail and.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Appealing.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: I will good.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Put your hands behind your back. Now, the no nonsense
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: judge has finally heard it up and whips off his
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: black robe.
• 36:21
  Speaker 7: Right now.
• 36:22
  Speaker 13: I knew that if I had to get in a
• 36:24
  Speaker 13: little bit of a scrum with a defendant, I didn't
• 36:26
  Speaker 13: want to do it with my robot. Excluding that the
• 36:28
  Speaker 13: kind of thing you want to be wrestling.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: In the enragedment's petrified target cowers and shock as the
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: suspect violently explodes.
• 36:37
  Speaker 13: I came up behind him and helped take him down
• 36:40
  Speaker 13: to the floor. Wrestled him down, and he was really
• 36:43
  Speaker 13: them resisting and kind of chicken winging and stuff.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: I had to make a decision to act.
• 36:51
  Speaker 13: Hes just sit on the sidelines and let let people
• 36:54
  Speaker 13: become victims.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: While the officer cuffs him. The furious suspect rages. It
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: is alleged victim.
• 37:00
  Speaker 7: Tell me to leave you alone, tell him right now.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: And Judge McBain leaves to her defense.
• 37:06
  Speaker 13: He kind of stood up, and you know, he made
• 37:07
  Speaker 13: an aggressive move towards the petitioner, the woman. I was
• 37:11
  Speaker 13: somewhat concerned for her safety.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Behind your hat. For the first time in his career,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: the judge leaves the bench during a trial, joining in
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: a dramatic courtroom takedown.
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: Right now, did hind your back?
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: We'll make it nine you think about it, camp.
• 37:45
  Speaker 13: I just wanted to get him on the ground and
• 37:47
  Speaker 13: get him when my court officer could get him coffed.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: But once Larsen was on the ground, the judge noticed
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: the real danger.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: A swinging handcuff.
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: That was evident to me.
• 37:57
  Speaker 13: He was swinging the handcuff and I was concerned that,
• 37:59
  Speaker 13: you know, my court officer could get very easily injured
• 38:02
  Speaker 13: at that point. That's a very dangerous thing to get
• 38:05
  Speaker 13: somebody that resists arrest and they've only got one cuff
• 38:08
  Speaker 13: on you, better off they have no cups on them one.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Thanks to Judge McBain's swift action, nobody has hurt, including
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: the defendant, who is restrained without a teaser.
• 38:18
  Speaker 13: Good news for him. He didn't have to get fifty
• 38:20
  Speaker 13: thousand coursing vaults, you know, and get tased.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: After the trial, the offender did his time, but didn't
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: seem to learn a lesson. The judge says Larsen went
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: right back to harassing his victim.
• 38:31
  Speaker 13: I warned him if he violated it again, he'd be
• 38:34
  Speaker 13: referred to the prosecutor's office for aggravated stocking.
• 38:37
  Speaker 11: It was.
• 38:38
  Speaker 13: He violated it again, and now it'll be suffer trial
• 38:42
  Speaker 13: in front of a different judge on felony charges.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: He may not be presiding, but Judge McBain might still
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: be on hand to make sure justice is served.
• 38:51
  Speaker 13: I will probably be a witness in the case. I
• 38:54
  Speaker 13: would hope that most judges would do the same thing
• 38:56
  Speaker 13: for their court officer.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: Instead, we'll let you be the judge of.
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: That case, of that right now.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Mm hm
