Teen Killer Doesn't Realize He's Being Recorded · The conspiracy

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: This is nineteen year old Hollis Daniels. He just got
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: arrested and has somehow managed to sneak a gun into jail.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: For you all.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: And this is where all hell breaks loose. The moment
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: this happens, the entire police station goes into lockdown as
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: officers scramble to make sense of the situation. They have
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: no idea who did this and how something like this
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: can even happen. Hollis, on the other hand, was by
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: this time long gone and thought he was going to
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: get away with it. But little did he know his
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: heinous crime was being recorded every step of the way
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: by hitting cameras. Now the chase was on to catch
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: this cold blooded team killer.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: It was funny.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: My mom called me and said, ready to you. Okay,
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: there's been a shooting and the stays year. Immediately then
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: I knew I wanted to help to the.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: Rest of my life.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: At around one am on the eighth of October, Hollis
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Daniels got into an argument with his friends. Allegedly, Hollis
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: had stolen his friend Leo's gun, and at one point
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: even threatened him with it. As Hollis left the house
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: that evening, Leo called the police telling them exactly what happened,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and Hollis was pulled over at around one thirty am,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: had the traffic stop you're about to see, and died.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Even slightly differently, Officer Floyd East Junior might still be
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: alive to this day.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: That's going on Mans Police Department. Where are you coming from?
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: We're gonna call out your causing the diserbants.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, over at your friend's house. What's your friend's name?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Okay, why was Leo callin Is telling us you're messing
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: with him? I have no idea, sir, because I guess
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: he didn't.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: Okay, do you have any guns or any weapons in
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: any drugs or anything like that?
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Step out here and talk to me, man. Okay, yeah,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: it is necessary. Okay, just come.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: After stepping out, Hollis tells the officers that he did
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: get into an argument with his friends, even getting thrown
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: onto the floor at one point. However, he's adamant that
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: he didn't steal anything from them, especially not a gun.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: The cops, though, aren't so sure and want to search
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: his vehicle to prove him wrong.
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: You do inside the beauty on your person if you
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: search your vehicle, yes, sir, but you don't want to
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: search your vehicle?
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but not because I don't know. I just I
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: just that's not necessary.
• 2:51
  Speaker 7: No, it is necessary because right now you're bald an investigation.
• 2:54
  Speaker 7: That's why I'm asking if you have a gun, and no,
• 2:57
  Speaker 7: I can't said okay.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: As Hollis didn't give consent to search, the officers never
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: ended up looking inside his vehicle. It could have been
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: argued they had probable cause, but in this situation, the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: officers must have thought it was a gray area and
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: let it slide. Sources say that it's very likely Hollis
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: did indeed have the gun with him in the car,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: and that a search would have likely recovered the weapon
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: and saved Officer Floyd's life, but instead, Hollis was given
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a friendly send off and allowed to return back home.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Damn kill him. He said that, I said that can
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: carry all your man.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Took us friends.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: The very next evening, a call came in from a
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: student saying that they'd heard a gunshot and saw another
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: student holding a gun. The cops, of course took this
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: extremely seriously, as they were worried that he might harm
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: himself or others on the campus. So at five point
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: fifty nine pm, Officer Floyd East Junior conducted a welfare
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: check with his.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Partner, textime Police Department.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: We're going in inside. Hollis was nowhere to be seen,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: but the officers did manage to wake up his roommate,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: whom they were able to question about Hollis's whereabouts.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: Man, what's your name?
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Candy?
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Andy?
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Is that who we're looking for?
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: No, we're not Alcoholis I just spoke up?
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, that's okay. Oh, what do you know about
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: your partner that lives in this room over here?
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Hollis Daniels Hollis.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know a whole lot about him, really. Oh,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I've been really hung out with these guys a whole lot.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Despite the lack of information, though, it wouldn't take long
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: for the cops to find something extremely unnerving that confirms
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: their suspicions.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: There's a gun right here, Revolver.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Two.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately for the cops, this isn't the weapon that they're
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: looking for. It's actually just a CO two gun, and
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the cops eventually end up coming dry on any real
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: firearms or evidence that one has been discharged here. However,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: they don't stop on their search, and they instead happen
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: on something that worries them even more.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: Probably is some drugs are paraphernalia there, but we can't
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: tell from plain view, so we'll just go ahead and
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: seize all. And I don't know what those pills are.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: But there's another person there and east. When I was
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: looking inside this box, it looks like there's a little
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: bag with some marijuana. Maybe.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: The cops found small amounts of marijuana and a larger
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: quantity of X concealed in a bottle that was supposed
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to be for antibiotics. According to his friends, Hollis had
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: recently developed an addiction for X and was illegally obtaining
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it alongside smoking weed to supposedly treat his anxiety. If
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: that was indeed the case, imagine how nervous he must
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: have felt when he returned home at six twenty nine
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: pm to see four police officers searching his dorm.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Hey, what's your name, Bud? What's your name?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Andres No, it's not what.
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: We've already talked to your other three roommates. We know
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: what they look like. That was a good try, though, Hey,
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: stand up for me real quick, do you have any
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: weapons or anything on you, interlace your fingers on top
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: of your head.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: This is the first of two searches that will be
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: conducted on Halla's marking the most pivotal points in this case.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: From this point onwards, he's never let out of the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: officer's sight, and he never retrieves a gun from anywhere.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: It would later come to light that at this very
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: moment he had a loaded forty five caliber pistol concealed
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: in his waistband. A search should confirm that. But watch
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: what happens when they start to pat him down. Spread
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: your feet out a little for me.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: What's on in this pocket?
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Money?
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: I can take it out? Is it okay to just
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: empty out all your pockets while we're doing this?
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Do you have your hand?
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Ask?
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: Can you a question?
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Somehow the officers don't find the gun that'll be used
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to shoot one of these officers in just one hour
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: from now, but the cops are clearly still suspicious. He
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: gave a fake name and seems extremely nervous while being searched,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: tentatively asking to avoid searching in certain places.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I've score fought sometimes to say, and I.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: So you don't have a prescription because that's a lot
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: of for one person.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Well, he's not in cuffs, how it seems remarkably calm.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: So while he's relaxed, they asked him a couple of
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: questions about the weapons before they throw him in cuffs.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I have Oh, oh, I do have a I do
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: have a Pelly gun, but it's not Yeah, we saw
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: that too. Okay, Well what do you use the co
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: two cut in for?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I haven't even loaded down her. Back home, we
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: used to just shoot squirrels and stuff. I thought it'd
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: be kind of fun, but then I realize I got here,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: it was that many squirrels.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Then we also got a report, and we got report
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: there was no gun shot in here. That's where we're.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Holding by who somebody that heard it? Yeah?
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Oh no, no, no, Yeah I didn't know.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah I didn't. I wasn't even here last night.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: I was over my buddy.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Uh uh twenty eight street. What time did the shot
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: go off? Because I look up the police reports from
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: officer what's the thing?
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: It was Dougworth.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Officer Dugworth. We had we went through this whole thing.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: Did they write you a ticket or anything?
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: You didn't have any ticket to let me go, because
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: the whole situation was they that I stole their gun.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: And so then then when it starts my car, you
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: can look at and I see you can look at
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: his uh.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: What's time you pulled me over?
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: And a bit that whatever time the gun jobs reported,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: well't won't actually.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Because that was it.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: When the cops checks the reports, it turned out he
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: was telling the truth, and the body cam from last
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: night's traffic stop becks this story up. At this point,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: the cops could start to connect the dots. A kid
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: accused of stealing a gun is now being accused of
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: shooting it at university. It could definitely be assumed that
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: something's gone overlooked either way. Hollis has been found in
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: possession of multiple illegal drugs, so the cops finally decide
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: to arrest him.
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: Oh, I don't know, We'll have to do it. All
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: depends on the weight and how much of the pills
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: there are to kind of determine the.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: The cops then start a second pat down, one that
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Hollis remembers vividly. He says he felt the officer check
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: just millimeters away from the weapon, but somehow never finding it.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Hollis was then escorted from his dorm into a squad car,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: where Officer Floyd tragically missed another opportunity to stop what
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: happened to him in just fifty minutes. As Hollis sits
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: down in the patrol car, Officer Floyd, here's a strange noise.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I'll mail hit.
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: What would that think some Oh, my handcuff.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: That noise wasn't his handcuffs at all. It was actually
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the sound of his gun falling down the leg of
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: his pants and hitting the floor. As well as lying
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: through his teeth. He was even able to reach down
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: and fully conceal the gun back in his pants before
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: finishing his journey to the Texas Tech PD. When they arrived,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: a thirty minute countdown full of tragic and negligent mistakes
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: would begin to take place. At twelve minutes past seven,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: one of the officers says that if Hollis continues to cooperate,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: they'll remove his handcuffs.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: He cooperate with me when police cuffs off a little and.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Two minutes later, at fourteen minutes past the officers make
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: good on their promise and take his handcuffs off. Ninety
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: seconds later, Hollis and Officer Floyd enter a room to
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: run through some paperwork and are left alone. There is
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: no footage of another search taking place before or after
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: they enter this room together. At seven forty four pm,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Hollis asks Officer Floyd three questions.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: Kids for you all.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: It's unclear why he shows to ask these questions. There
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: was no incentive, and all it did was make him
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: look like a complete and total psychopath, like he wanted
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: him to know the damage that he was about to
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: cause and the lives that he was about to ruin.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Four seconds pass before he reaches into his sock and
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: takes a deep breath. The shot echoed through the station,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: alerting officers nearby. By the time they are Floyd was
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: already dead and Hollis was nowhere to be seen. Assuming
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Floyd's body camp to be the only camera in the room,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: he grabbed it and fled, with no idea that the
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: entire incident had been recorded on this hidden surveillance camera.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Despite the suspect being gone, cops knew there could only
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: be one suspect, and they immediately placed the campus on
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: lockdown and began a two hour long manhunt for an
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: armed team killer.
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: Six fifty eight, the PDA is not secure, got off
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: or down he saw in our briefing room. We don't
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: know where the suspect went. He's about a nineteen year
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: old white male, skinny blue jeans, believe a light colored
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: T shirt. He had muddy let on his jeans from
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: the knees down.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Blue jeans and white T shirt.
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and he's got facial hair.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: You can you relate the information one more time?
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's our sergeant, so we can get all the
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: burner units clear.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: On what we're looking for.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: Daniels Daniel's last name, first name Hollis.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: After securing the area, detailing a full and proper description
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: of Hollis, and searching the campus for a total of
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: ninety minutes, Hollis was eventually found and apprehended without further injury.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: When he was finally caught, he said cold bloodedly that
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: he was quote the one that shot their friend. He
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: was found carrying Floyd's bodycam and a loaded forty five
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: caliber pistol. At every turn, Hollis got as lucky as
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: he possibly could have, while Floyd got the opposite. After
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: being caught, Hollis also told the officers that he'd done
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: something ficked up and illogical. Implying that he had some
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: remorse for what happened. However, a phone call to his
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: family recorded at eleven fourteen that night showed that the
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: only thing he regretted was being caught.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Right anything. Yeah, I the cool.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I haven't been saying anything.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: Ah, I haven't been saying anything. Really, they the but
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: there's pretty hall solid, solid proof against me. And it
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: is the problem. I I I I know that, I
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: know that, but I'm telling you I I I don't
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: you know me care you know me.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say ah, I was I supported someone
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: who has saw me as I said, No.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: I even saw me.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Oh you know me.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say anything that they would jeopardize that.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: I'm yeah, I love you and you'll get through it.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's my dumb bob that I shouldn't done this anyway,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I'm stupid.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Halliss's demeanor and this call is frankly terrifying. It's almost
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: as if he's talking to his family about the drug
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: charge and not the first degree murder charge, and the
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: biggest issue on his mind seems to be being kicked
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: out of school.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: This may be a little more extreme.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I think that they're probably going to keep the other
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: text to Stack high school.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: And I think that they're love here.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: After this call, he was taken by police to an
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: interrogation room, where it seems the reality of the situation
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: finally heads him.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Well, you guys, an the whole story. What do you
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: think is the most likely bust block home? Well, I
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: don't know the whole story. Hold on, hold on, I'm
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: just I'm just it's it's just a bad situation. I
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: got it, Okay. You know it's funny. My mom called
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: me and said, ready to go.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: Okay, there's been a shooting, and they stays year And
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: immediately then I knew, you know, I'm wanting to up
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: to the rest of my life.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: I'm not out of college. You know what. We got
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: to figure this out first.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, rightly, Hollis, isn't he and trying to defend himself.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: He knows he's done something horrifying and is going to
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: pay the price for it. But the detectives are still
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: plagued with the question of why on earth he did
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: what he did, so they asked him to recount the
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: moment where he took Floyd's life.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: So I I got back to my dorm and there
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: were already police officers in there. They busted me.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Fors in marijuana, and they showed me back to the
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: to the.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: To the station and I and I I in my head,
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I thought, you know, I can't have this thirst right
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: against me.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: This is NBA, you know what I mean, not thinking logically,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: And so I did something very logical and and regretted deeply,
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: and I don't.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know ever how i'll I don't make up
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: for it. Okay, so kind of cover? What are you're asking?
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Hollis seems to be seeking approval from the detectives. It
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: genuinely does seem as though he feels guilty for what
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: he did, as he's putting himself down and asking the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: detective if what he said is enough.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I was taking marks the police station and something just
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: clicked to my head and I said, I can't. I can't,
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: I can't do this. I can't go back like this.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: But then I made a worse decision to go back
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: and do something that I thought I could. I see,
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: I'm call my parents. I really like to call my
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: parents because they're worried thinking about me.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: This saut on the news.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: He's stuttering, repeating himself, and all he wants to do
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: is call his parents. Hollis is starting to shut down,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: overwhelmed with shame, regret, and guilt. The longer this conversation
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: goes on for, the more you have to wonder what
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: compelled him to take that officer's life in the way
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: that he did. And you've got to imagine his parents
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: are thinking the very same thing.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's a dare, and add it's me bad, honey.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Are you okay?
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: I'm okay, I'm very safe. I'm with some very nice
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: people in now, and I'm in trouble and I messed
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: up badly.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Oh, re read, honey, I will be sorry.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: I don't I don't even will be there tonight where
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: I live.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: And I'm shaking all over and I can't proud that
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I can't ride that.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: I want to come see you.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: I want to conceive.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: What what?
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: What?
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: What happened? I mean, why would you do something out there?
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: Don't you don't know?
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: I do know?
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: And then and it doesn't make sense and and I'm sorry.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry I brought this disrespect to my family. I'm
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: sorry I brought this disrespect to my family again.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: No, don't don't be sorry. It's not you. It's my fault.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: You did nothing wrong.
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: I did.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: It's me and I think they're gonna put me away
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: for a little while and there's nothing I can do
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: Hope you want to get it there. I love you, okay, yes, sir.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I love you Dad twenty five to life plus laurn
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: because there's other stuff. I mean, look, look, that would
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: be the responsible thing to do, is to give me
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: jail time and then maybe I can go off the world.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: But it's just gonna change. Not your fault, it's just
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: gonna change how I have to.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Go about it.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: What I'm gonna do.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: All that's up to the district are turns offs, and
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: of course the district are going up so and you're
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: gonna give something five alive.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: So so yeah, yeah, get anything else you want to say,
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: But Hollis's motive for all of this, though, would be
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the biggest mystery of all. Some say it was influenced
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: by his addiction. Some say that he had undiagnosed mental problems,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: or a combination of the two. At the end of
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: the day, it's all speculation, and we can only turn
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: to what he said in court, it doesn't make sense.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: I thought I was stuck. I thought it was all over.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: I thought this was an opportunity to go out to
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: commit sue. There was no rational line of thought that
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I had. He also told the court that he wanted
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: to go out with a bang, and that he asked
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Floyd about his family because he wanted them to be
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: the last thing that he thought about. It seems as
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: though Hollis panicked, he was scared about the consequences of
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: the drug charges, and was influenced by drugs, mental issues,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: or something else to take the absolute worst route possible.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: After dodging three separate searches and almost being caught multiple times,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: he might have even thought that this was meant to be.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: He turned a simple possession of narcotics charge into a
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: first degree murder charge, and now he's facing the death sentence.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: When asked why the jury should spare him, he said,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I think it's totally fair to save life for life.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: But then on the other hand, I think about my family,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: and the truth is I'm biased in my own favor.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: I don't want to die, not anymore. After deliberating for
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: three days, a jury eventually concluded that Hollis should serve
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: life in prison without the possibility of parole.
