  Speaker 2: this young man is being charged with attempted murder. But
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: before we get into that, I am reminded, Okay, I
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: am reminded because of today's Donkey of to day that
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: we don't acknowledge our glimmers enough. All right, we have
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: a tendency, as humans who are ever evolving, we have
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: a tendency to only acknowledge our triggers, glimmers versus triggers.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Here goes Charlamagne with his mental health minds talk yet again, Yes,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: here I go again.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Triggers are people, places, moments, just those cues that move
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: our body into fight or flight.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: But glimmers are also cues.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: But there are cues that move our body into a
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: feeling of safety, a feeling of connection. Okay, glimmers connect
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: us to something good. Why did I bring that up
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: this morning? Because today's story even though it's an attempted murder.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: All right, I'm letting you know right now it's an
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: attempted murder. It gave me a glimmer because there is
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: something at the sin the center of this story that
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: connected me to some great memories. And that's something. It's
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: one of the greatest somethings of all time. And we
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: call that something a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Drop
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: on the clues bombs with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Don't you ever, Don't you ever, as long as you
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: black act like you're too good for a bite of
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Okay, all my brothers
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: and sisters of all races, if you have a soul,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: then you appreciate a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: You haven't lived until you've eaten a peanut butter and
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: jelly sandwich. That white bread with that food paste made
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: from ground, dry roasted peanuts, coupled with that soft, almost
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: elastic consistency. Those three things, that peanut butter, that jelly,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: that white bread, those three things get together and have
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: a freak off in your mouth. You hear me, Okay,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: with those three flavors come together. My god, the salty
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: cream richness of the peanut butter with the sweet, slightly
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: taught kicker jelly.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: It's literally the Yin and yanga sandwiches.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, Peanut butter and jelly represents what happens if all
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: races in America just came together. Okay, it's the harmony
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: we didn't know we needed. But it's a taste you
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: just can't live without. All Right, more on peanut butter
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: and jelly when I come back, because I have to
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: remind you why we hear we're here because Javon has
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: an attempted murder charge, and he has that charge because
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: he got into a quarrel, a kerfuffle over a peanut
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: butter and jelly sandwich.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I really need you to listen to me. Okay.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: He was taken into custody after he seriously injured another
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: man with a butter knife during an argument over a
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: peanut butter and jelly sandwich. If convicted, Owens could face
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: a sentence ranging from thirty years to sixty years in prison.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: He was ordered to be held without bail during a
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: court hearing this past one day at the Dakalb County
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Jail in Sycamore. Now let the record show to defended
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: his own twenty three years old, and has already pleaded
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: guilty the two violent crimes, with three more pending. All
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: of these incidents occurred within an eighteen month span.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: The injuries sustained by the victim.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Because of the butter knife were so severe that he
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: had to be transferred to a Chicago hospital for further treatment.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Court records revealed that a witness told police the dispute
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: began over a messy peanut, butter and jelly sandwich. The
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: witness actually attempted to intervene, but Owens allegedly swung a
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: butter knife over our shoulder and hit the victim. The
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: victim said the argument started because someone left peanut, butter
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: and jelly on the counter, and as the confrontation escalated,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Owens allegedly pulled out the butter knife, and the victim
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: retaliated by throwing punches. He later told police that he
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: didn't realize he had been stabbed until he started feeling faint.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: The victims sustained five stab wounds from the butter knife
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: the various parts of his body. The injuries were spread
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: out all over his body because of the butter knife.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: It included his hip, back, armpit, and kyla bone. According
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: to the doctor's the wounds punctured and intestine, and the
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: victim expressed fear that Owens had intended to kill him.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Clean up the goddamn Jeff, Why would you leave Welch's
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: concord grape jelly open like this?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: You see what a mess cost.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: This is why you always got to hear both sides,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: because when I heard this story, I knew it had
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: to be more to it. Because peanut butter and jelly
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: it don't make people act like this. Peanut butter and
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: jelly is a time machine that does nothing but bring
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: you back to an existence when life was simple. One
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: bite and you're instantly transported back in time. It's like
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: having The Adventures Time Travel bracelet. You get taken back
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: to your childhood. You and your mama, a grandma kitchen,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: humming the theme song to Martin. You just care free,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: not a worry in the world, and then here comes
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: someone disturbing your goddamn peace.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: You can go from glimmer to trigger and left an zero.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Point four seconds, all because someone left peanut butter and
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: jelly on the counter and didn't clean it up.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Now, I'm not a lawyer, okay.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: If it's one thing that Diddy Cass showed us all
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: this week is that none of none of us know
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: the law. But this is a clear case of self defense.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: My client had a butter knife. Why did he a
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: butter knife?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Duh?
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: It's a jar skippy on the counter of your honor
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: and smucker strawberry squeeze with some wonder bread. Clearly, I'm
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: about to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: then this mad man, who probably can't appreciate peeb and
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: j and thinks ham and cheese is top tier, starts
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: swinging punches at me. So I did what any self
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: respecting lover of peanut, butter and jelly would do, and
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: that's cut him with my butter knife. Now, now that's
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: what I would say, And that's probably why he wouldn't
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: get a bond, because the reality is, peanut butter and
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: jelly sandwich is a classic, one of the greatest, if
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: not the greatest, comfort foods of all time. But there's
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: a long list of things that should never lead to violence,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: and near the top of that list as you guessed it,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. You can't catch an
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: attempted murder charge over no damn peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: That's just trivial.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I don't even know what type of peanut butter it was, crunchy, smooth,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: name brand generic, same with jelly. But you don't want
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: to go to prison for life for a spread, because
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: in prison you can become a spread. Yes, I'm talking
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: about your ass cheeks. What if you get spread in
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: prison and then they start calling you peanut butter and
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: jelly in the joint, that's your nickname. Now now you
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: got a nickname like Skippy Squeeze our jift jam, and
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: now people spreading your ass cheeks all over the prison. Listen,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: we have to learn better conflict resolution skills. We have
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: to learn how to communicate without violence. These two brothers
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: weren't fighting over no dan peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Clearly there's some unresolved trauma there and Javon has a
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: history of violence, so stabbing him with the butter knife
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: was the effect, not the cost.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: And we will never get.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: To the cast because all they gonna do is attempt
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: to send this young man to prison. And I'm not
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: saying he shouldn't be held There should be consequences for
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: his actions. He should be held accountable for his actions,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: but going to prison, it will devilegate him the proper
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: mental health care he needs to see exactly what is
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: troubling this young man. Please give Javon j Owens the
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: You all, oh the day, Oh the day, Ye.
