- 0:47Speaker 1: we can't find any correct birth certificates to match up

- 1:03Speaker 1: rare end I mean, I see grace. This is Crime Stories.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Thanks for being with us here at Crime Stories and
- 1:11Speaker 1: on serious sex. Sem one eleven an Irish orphan? Did
- 1:17Speaker 1: he develop a brogue? I've got so many questions. I
- 1:21Speaker 1: don't even know where to start, but let's just start
- 1:23Speaker 1: at the beginning. Who is this guy? Listen?
- 1:26Speaker 2: Nicholas Alaverdian's obituary appeared on a memorial site called ever Loved.
- 1:31Speaker 2: It detailed how the man who grew up in foster
- 1:34Speaker 2: care became a Harvard graduate and a vocal critic of
- 1:38Speaker 2: Rhode Island's childcare system after suffering sexual abuse as a child.
- 1:43Speaker 2: It also detailed how Alaverdian died of Hodgkins lymphoma at
- 1:47Speaker 2: thirty two years old, leaving behind a wife and two
- 1:50Speaker 2: young children, who remained at his bedside as he died.
- 1:54Speaker 2: According to his wife, his last words were fear not
- 1:58Speaker 2: and run toward the bliss of the sun.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Okay, well, I just need to take that in. Hold on.
- 2:04Speaker 1: His last words were fear not and run toward the
- 2:09Speaker 1: bliss of the son. Hold on, fear not and run
- 2:15Speaker 1: toward the bliss of the son. Well. When that O
- 2:21Speaker 1: bit was published, immediately it was met with skepticism, including
- 2:27Speaker 1: by one of his own foster moms. Contacted by Alvarian's
- 2:32Speaker 1: biological mother, his own bio mother called the foster mom
- 2:39Speaker 1: and goes, hey, read this O bit. It sounds like
- 2:43Speaker 1: he wrote it himself. Follow the bliss of the sun again.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Let me just say my rear end. Well, mother knows
- 2:56Speaker 1: best once again, doesn't she? So what more or do
- 3:00Speaker 1: we know? Take a listen to our friend days Macket.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Crime online Nicholas Alavertian's death was alive an elaborate scheme
- 3:08Speaker 3: created by Nicholas Rossi, a man charged with sexually assaulting
- 3:12Speaker 3: a former girlfriend in or a mutah, as well as
- 3:14Speaker 3: multiple complaints against him in Rhode Island for alleged domestic violence.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Nicholas Alaverdian was born the eldest of three children. His father,
- 3:21Speaker 3: who had convictions for domestic assault and selling cocaine, left
- 3:25Speaker 3: the family three years later. According to the Providence Journal,
- 3:28Speaker 3: Alaverdian's mother, Diana, married David Rossi, an Engelbert humperting impersonator.
- 3:33Speaker 3: David Rossi, the stepfather, says at an early age, Nicholas
- 3:36Speaker 3: would hit his mother, grandmother, siblings, and wouldn't listen in school.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Ala Verdian was placed in psychiatric care where doctors diagnosed
- 3:43Speaker 3: him with narcissistic personality disorder and attention deficit disorder. After
- 3:48Speaker 3: being discharged from the treatment program, Aliverdian was returned to
- 3:51Speaker 3: his family. Briefly, he created such conflict within the family
- 3:55Speaker 3: home he was placed into the care of dcyf. As
- 3:58Speaker 3: far as Alaverdian's claims of being a Harvard scholar, he
- 4:01Speaker 3: did study comparative literature in an extension program class offered
- 4:05Speaker 3: by Harvard University, but he did not graduate. He was
- 4:09Speaker 3: administratively withdrawn from the course when the university learned of
- 4:12Speaker 3: his sex vendor status. After faking his death, alavertian headed overseas.
- 4:17Speaker 1: That's so much information I'm drinking from the fire hydrant
- 4:20Speaker 1: what I've written that first of all, to Tim White
- 4:24Speaker 1: joining us out of Providence, Rhode Island, investigative reporter and
- 4:28Speaker 1: managing editor w PRTV, that CBS affiliate, co author of
- 4:33Speaker 1: The Last Good Heist, and professor journalism Roger Williams University.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Tim White, first of all, critical, who is an Engelbert
- 4:46Speaker 1: humperdick impersonator.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Well, that was his stepfather, whose name he adopted after
- 4:53Speaker 4: his mother remarried at the time. I mean, as you
- 4:56Speaker 4: could hear from his biography, unconventional childhood, I think to
- 5:02Speaker 4: put it mildly and lightly, including the profession of his
- 5:06Speaker 4: stepfather and one in which he found himself in and
- 5:09Speaker 4: out of the child welfare system here in Rhode Island,
- 5:13Speaker 4: where he alleged physical and mental abuse while being under
- 5:17Speaker 4: the state's custody.
- 5:19Speaker 1: He's a liar. He is a narcissistic liar. So am
- 5:24Speaker 1: I supposed to believe that did that really happen? Maybe?
- 5:28Speaker 1: But maybe not? And I do know this isn't it true,
- 5:32Speaker 1: Jim White that he would hit his mother and his grandmother.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Of course, his siblings he misbehaved in school, but hitting
- 5:41Speaker 1: your own mom and your grandma, right, that.
- 5:44Speaker 4: Is what the stepfather alleged at the time, that he
- 5:47Speaker 4: was a tough kid who would fly off the handle.
- 5:50Speaker 4: And look, there is well, there are arrests for domestic
- 5:54Speaker 4: violence here in Rhode Island, where he was he pled
- 5:59Speaker 4: no contest, no local tendre to charges that he was
- 6:02Speaker 4: physical with a girlfriend in a suburb of Providence. So
- 6:05Speaker 4: there's definitely allegations and there's also a conviction of being
- 6:10Speaker 4: physically violent with people in his orbit.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Jim White, can I just clarify when you say he
- 6:15Speaker 1: was quote physical with a girlfriend, you mean he beater?
- 6:18Speaker 5: Yes, correct?
- 6:18Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, what about being a quote Harvard scholar. They
- 6:26Speaker 1: kicked him out of the program, which I'd like to
- 6:29Speaker 1: point out as an extension program, which means you're an
- 6:33Speaker 1: extended distance away from the school. But they Harvard kicked
- 6:37Speaker 1: him out when they found out he was a sex offender.
- 6:39Speaker 4: Yeah, they did. I mean, look, it's clear from the
- 6:42Speaker 4: evidence that he tried to exaggerate his resume when he
- 6:47Speaker 4: was trying to particularly when he was trying to push
- 6:50Speaker 4: his agenda here in Rhode Island with state lawmakers a
- 6:53Speaker 4: lot of them who bought the story that he was
- 6:56Speaker 4: selling he was trying to reform the state child agency,
- 7:00Speaker 4: and he would hold up this this resume that he
- 7:03Speaker 4: had that he was a Harvard scholar and all that
- 7:06Speaker 4: that was obviously a lie. He didn't graduate from Harvard.
- 7:10Speaker 4: He definitely pushed the envelope on that one. And I
- 7:14Speaker 4: think you bring up an important question Earlier. You wondered
- 7:18Speaker 4: if the allegations he made against the state Child Welfare
- 7:22Speaker 4: Agency were even legit. Now that lawsuit was dismissed, and
- 7:25Speaker 4: it was dismissed because as of many as you know,
- 7:28Speaker 4: many lawsuits are dismissed because they were settled, and I
- 7:31Speaker 4: believe he had told family members it was settled for
- 7:34Speaker 4: about seventy thousand dollars, not a big number, but the
- 7:38Speaker 4: child Welfare agency denied any wrongdoing and set as part
- 7:43Speaker 4: of the agreement in the settlement that they did not
- 7:46Speaker 4: admit to any wrongdoing.
- 7:47Speaker 5: So I think you're.
- 7:48Speaker 4: Right to question whether or not the allegations he made
- 7:52Speaker 4: against DCYF were actually legitimate considering what we know now.
- 7:56Speaker 1: So I'm trying to figure out how Nikolas al Avernion
- 8:00Speaker 1: aka Nick Rossi ends up pretending to be an Irish
- 8:05Speaker 1: orphan in Scotland when he's got a slew of rape
- 8:09Speaker 1: allegations and violence allegations back in the US, all the
- 8:14Speaker 1: way to orem Utah. But first of all he had
- 8:19Speaker 1: to register as a sex offender Listen.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Nicholas Alaverdian, using the name Rossi, was accused of assaulting
- 8:26Speaker 2: a young woman he met at Sinclair Community College in Ohio.
- 8:30Speaker 2: The two had lunch together. Alaverdian offered to walk the
- 8:33Speaker 2: co ed to her next class, and she agreed. The
- 8:36Speaker 2: co ed claims Alaverdian pinned her against a wall in
- 8:39Speaker 2: a basement, groped her, and masturbated. Alaverdian apologized and asked
- 8:44Speaker 2: the girl not to tell anybody. She made a police report,
- 8:47Speaker 2: and Alaverdian aka Rossi, was convicted of public indecency and
- 8:52Speaker 2: sexual imposition and was required to register as a sex offender.
- 8:56Speaker 1: To Brett Brown, joining US Executive director of sasst GO
- 9:01Speaker 1: Surviving Assault, Standing Strong to eradicate abuse, trafficking and violence
- 9:08Speaker 1: against women, Brett Brown, thank you for being with us.
- 9:13Speaker 1: That's why a lot of women never go forward with
- 9:17Speaker 1: rape or sex assault allegations. They almost universally somehow feel
- 9:22Speaker 1: like it's in some way their fault. Like this young
- 9:26Speaker 1: woman just twenty one was at Sinclair Community College and
- 9:31Speaker 1: she allowed him to walk her to her next class. Yes,
- 9:36Speaker 1: and I'm sure at some point felt, well, that's my
- 9:39Speaker 1: fault because I let them want me to class. It's
- 9:42Speaker 1: not her fault. And I think he got off really
- 9:45Speaker 1: lightly on that.
- 9:46Speaker 6: I totally agree. We see women universally as survivors feeling
- 9:52Speaker 6: obligated to be nice and to be kind, and when
- 9:55Speaker 6: they do that and they are then abused or assaulted,
- 9:58Speaker 6: they blame themselves because they feel like they gave him
- 10:01Speaker 6: permission to behave that way.
- 10:03Speaker 1: And then if you are angry about it, then you're
- 10:07Speaker 1: a quote man hater and you're frigid and you're cold
- 10:11Speaker 1: because you don't like to be assaulted. And it makes
- 10:15Speaker 1: me wonder, Brett Brown, if that was his demo at
- 10:18Speaker 1: the time, how many other women never came forward?
- 10:23Speaker 6: Yes, because what he did was brazen, and while in
- 10:27Speaker 6: a relatively private space in the building, in a public
- 10:31Speaker 6: space during the day, he was very emboldened at this point.
- 10:35Speaker 6: So I would think there are probably many women who
- 10:38Speaker 6: have not come forward.
- 10:39Speaker 1: I mean, the reality is isn't this true, Brett Brown?
- 10:42Speaker 1: Everyone would be very surprised to find out who that
- 10:48Speaker 1: they know has been molested or sex assaulted and have
- 10:52Speaker 1: never breathed a word of it.
- 10:54Speaker 6: Absolutely, we see it all the time across the country.
- 10:58Speaker 6: Statistics alone show that one in four women will be
- 11:01Speaker 6: abuse for assaulted in their lifetime. So yes, they're all
- 11:04Speaker 6: around us.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Time stories with me. It's a grease wait for it,
- 11:20Speaker 1: I'm going to tie this together, or Tim White's going
- 11:23Speaker 1: to tie it together. The Irish orphan living in Scotland
- 11:32Speaker 1: who faked his own death and then as bio mom
- 11:36Speaker 1: reads his obit and goes, uh uh, he's not dead.
- 11:40Speaker 1: He wrote this. I guarantee you he wrote this. You
- 11:43Speaker 1: know that reminds me of Let me go out to
- 11:47Speaker 1: Greg Algrin joining us out of Laredo, international lawyer at
- 11:52Speaker 1: disruis dot com. Greg, do you remember, of course you do,
- 11:58Speaker 1: the unibomber sure who wrote this huge manifesto thousands and
- 12:04Speaker 1: thousands of words and insisted that it be published. I
- 12:08Speaker 1: guess it was in the New York Times and his
- 12:10Speaker 1: brother read it and went, wait, that's take as Inskey,
- 12:16Speaker 1: that's my brother. I know who wrote that, And his
- 12:20Speaker 1: own ridiculous manifesto gave a way that he's a unibomber
- 12:27Speaker 1: and it's take is insky.
- 12:28Speaker 7: I see some parallels for sure.
- 12:30Speaker 1: This guy writes his oh bit it is biommeos. I
- 12:33Speaker 1: know he ain't dead, He's alive. Why is it that
- 12:39Speaker 1: so often criminals give themselves away in this manner?
- 12:44Speaker 7: It's that narcissistic attention seeking personality they have, since it's
- 12:51Speaker 7: their their fatal weakness.
- 12:53Speaker 1: Hey, Greg Augrin, are you a psychologist as well as
- 12:57Speaker 1: a lawyer, because I hear you throwing around psychological just orders.
- 13:00Speaker 7: Are you No?
- 13:03Speaker 1: I'm not either, But I know what narcissism means because
- 13:06Speaker 1: I actually had to teach well, I wanted to teach
- 13:09Speaker 1: Greek and Roman mythology while I was waiting to find
- 13:11Speaker 1: out if I was going to get into law school.
- 13:13Speaker 1: And everyone knows about narcissus, but we just so happened
- 13:19Speaker 1: to have a forensic psychologist with us. Author of Dark Sides,
- 13:23Speaker 1: doctor Jeff Kalshewski, Doctor Jeff, what is a narcissist? I mean,
- 13:28Speaker 1: I know Greg Algrin is correct, but explain that narcissus
- 13:34Speaker 1: saw his image in a pool of water, fell in
- 13:37Speaker 1: love with himself, didn't notice anything else around him, anything
- 13:42Speaker 1: or anyone, and finally was trying to get to himself
- 13:45Speaker 1: and fell in the water and died.
- 13:46Speaker 8: Wow, we only have an hour to talk about narcissism
- 13:50Speaker 8: crime hit me and.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Hit me hard on ROSSI.
- 13:54Speaker 8: Oh boy, So again, how many times do we talk
- 13:58Speaker 8: about some of these criminals, and particularly when we do
- 14:01Speaker 8: programs on murderers where narcissism ends up being the flaw
- 14:07Speaker 8: that trips them up. Again, we could talk about this
- 14:12Speaker 8: for days. I need to put a video on my
- 14:15Speaker 8: YouTube channel on forensic psychology about narcissism and murders. Because
- 14:20Speaker 8: narcissists think that they're more brilliant than anyone else. Narcissists
- 14:26Speaker 8: believe that what they do is right, and they have
- 14:30Speaker 8: typically absolutely no insight into what they're doing others may
- 14:36Speaker 8: judge as inappropriate, wrong, or that they might get caught.
- 14:40Speaker 8: They are the center of the universe and what they
- 14:43Speaker 8: do is right, and that the world does not appreciate
- 14:47Speaker 8: that and actually sanctions them arrests them is just unfathomable.
- 14:54Speaker 4: You know.
- 14:54Speaker 8: In the early days when they began to write about
- 14:57Speaker 8: narcissism in the psychiatric literature, they actually initially called it
- 15:02Speaker 8: a psychosis because the people that were writing about just
- 15:07Speaker 8: could not believe that people who were so narcissistic didn't
- 15:11Speaker 8: even recognize that their ideas about themselves and the world
- 15:14Speaker 8: were flawed and they were really not consistent with the
- 15:19Speaker 8: reality around them, So they started to talk about it
- 15:22Speaker 8: initially as a psychosis.
- 15:24Speaker 1: You know who I think was a narcissist is a narcissist,
- 15:26Speaker 1: doctor Kalischewski. And I almost hate to bring his name up,
- 15:31Speaker 1: but he's the poster boy for so many things that
- 15:34Speaker 1: are all wrong. Scott Peterson, Oh, yeah, as you know,
- 15:37Speaker 1: I was going to say that because I mean, granted,
- 15:40Speaker 1: some people, not me, of course, think he's attractive. I
- 15:44Speaker 1: think he looks like the devil. But that said, he
- 15:48Speaker 1: has this beautiful wife, Lacey. She's expecting their first baby
- 15:51Speaker 1: around Christmas. So he naturally goes and has sex affairs,
- 15:55Speaker 1: not just one, but many, and then lies about it,
- 15:58Speaker 1: kills her and tries to pretend that he was in Brussels. No,
- 16:02Speaker 1: it was Paris, France on New Year's Eve with his
- 16:05Speaker 1: friend Pierre and Jacques. Yeah, and the lying and when
- 16:10Speaker 1: he went on the run after dyeing his hair blonde.
- 16:13Speaker 1: That's certainly not a felony. He had a bunch of
- 16:17Speaker 1: I think it was condoms in viagra. He needed that
- 16:20Speaker 1: to go on the run. I mean, everything was about
- 16:25Speaker 1: him and what would suit him and his desires, and
- 16:29Speaker 1: it cost the life of Lacy and her unborn child.
- 16:33Speaker 1: Connor would that be indicative of narcissism? Doctor Jeff Kelschewski.
- 16:41Speaker 8: Right, narcissism and lying. So narcissists, they inno sense believed
- 16:46Speaker 8: their own lives, and they can't even fathom the idea
- 16:50Speaker 8: that other people would not believe their lives. How many
- 16:53Speaker 8: times have we looked at these cases and these allies
- 16:56Speaker 8: are just so egregious and so odd that any national
- 17:00Speaker 8: person would know their lives. But to the narcissist, they
- 17:04Speaker 8: can't even fathom the idea that you would think they're lying?
- 17:07Speaker 1: How dare you? How dare you not believe I'm an
- 17:11Speaker 1: Irish orphan, not a sex predator, even though my DNA
- 17:14Speaker 1: matches up to a rap kid. But that said, let's
- 17:18Speaker 1: plow forward. I mean an Irish orphan, as I always
- 17:22Speaker 1: like to say, being part Irish. If you're lucky enough
- 17:25Speaker 1: to be Irish, you lucky enough. But this guy is
- 17:30Speaker 1: neither an Orphan nor Irish, and he ends up in
- 17:34Speaker 1: Scotland under a different name, adamantly denying that he is
- 17:40Speaker 1: Nicholas Alverdian. Okay, let me get us back on track
- 17:43Speaker 1: after leading you out in the weeds. Take a listen
- 17:47Speaker 1: to this.
- 17:47Speaker 9: Two years later, police are called to an apartment in
- 17:49Speaker 9: Rhode Island by the friend of a woman involved in
- 17:52Speaker 9: a relationship with Nicholas Alaverdian. When police arrive, they hear
- 17:55Speaker 9: arguing and screaming. When the woman comes to the door,
- 17:58Speaker 9: she has marks on her face and in left eye,
- 18:01Speaker 9: and her right eye is swelling. The woman tells police
- 18:03Speaker 9: she and Olivertian were arguing and when she tried to leave,
- 18:06Speaker 9: he slapped her in the face. Police arrest Olivertian, who
- 18:09Speaker 9: proclaims his innocence and begins banging his head on the
- 18:12Speaker 9: bars in the back of the squad car. Officers have
- 18:15Speaker 9: to use pepper spray to make him stop trying to
- 18:17Speaker 9: hurt himself. Alavertian pleads no contest to domestic simple assault.
- 18:21Speaker 1: You know anybody on this panel, please jump in, but
- 18:26Speaker 1: let's see Tim White. Do you have children?
- 18:29Speaker 5: I do?
- 18:29Speaker 1: Has one ever thrown a fit? You know, on TV
- 18:33Speaker 1: you see them lying in the floor and there Tommy
- 18:34Speaker 1: kicking and screaming. You ever seen that? Has any of
- 18:37Speaker 1: your children ever had a fit?
- 18:39Speaker 4: Yeah, they're keen now, But when they were toddlers that, yeah,
- 18:42Speaker 4: sure that would happen.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Okay, well whenever. They didn't do it very often, but
- 18:47Speaker 1: the very few times, I think, maybe only once, each
- 18:49Speaker 1: one of them had a quote fit as we call
- 18:51Speaker 1: it down South. And I didn't spank then with yell
- 18:55Speaker 1: of them. I just stood there and watched them. With Lucy,
- 18:58Speaker 1: I actually started laughing because when she finished her fit
- 19:01Speaker 1: in the floor, she poked her lips out like you would.
- 19:05Speaker 1: I've never seen lips poke out that far, as my
- 19:08Speaker 1: grandmother would say, you're poking your lips out so far
- 19:11Speaker 1: I could plan a road with turnips on him. Yeah. So,
- 19:14Speaker 1: And that set me into laughter, which you're not supposed
- 19:17Speaker 1: to do when a child throws a fit, because that
- 19:19Speaker 1: infuriates them further to be laughed at. But this is
- 19:22Speaker 1: what he's doing. He gets in the back. First of all,
- 19:25Speaker 1: he has an argument with the friend of the woman
- 19:27Speaker 1: that he's dating because she's not agreeing with everything he says,
- 19:31Speaker 1: and he beats her, he beats her, and then when
- 19:35Speaker 1: police show up and put him in the squad car,
- 19:37Speaker 1: he throws a fit and starts banging his head. I
- 19:40Speaker 1: think I would have just let him bang his head
- 19:41Speaker 1: for Pete's sake, but they stopped him with pepper spray,
- 19:45Speaker 1: and he pleads, this is what I hate, Tim White,
- 19:48Speaker 1: no contest, as you said earlier, Nolo contender to that.
- 19:52Speaker 1: In other words, I didn't I'm not saying I did it,
- 19:55Speaker 1: and I'm not saying I didn't do it. I'm just
- 19:57Speaker 1: not contesting it, and I'll take my punishment. Remember what's
- 20:01Speaker 1: critical to me right here, Tim White, is this is
- 20:04Speaker 1: two years after he pushes this woman against the wall
- 20:08Speaker 1: in the basement, gropes her private pars and in masturbates
- 20:14Speaker 1: class all the way. Keep it classy, Rassi. Now he's
- 20:19Speaker 1: beating up a woman who is known to him, just
- 20:22Speaker 1: two years later. I don't know what he's done in
- 20:24Speaker 1: the meantime, but now there's that.
- 20:26Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 20:26Speaker 4: Look, he had a pattern of we know, violent behavior,
- 20:32Speaker 4: particularly against women, and at the time that that arrest happened,
- 20:37Speaker 4: we now know there were other allegations against him. I'm
- 20:40Speaker 4: sure you'll get to in Utah and just to bring
- 20:42Speaker 4: up something you said earlier, the rape, correct, well, two
- 20:46Speaker 4: rapes in Utah. And then there was you know, of
- 20:50Speaker 4: course the sexual assault you already talked about in Ohio,
- 20:52Speaker 4: but court documents that were unsealed in Utah now giving
- 20:56Speaker 4: us a lens into other allegations that had happened in
- 21:00Speaker 4: four other states. We already talked about Ohio, Utah, Massachusetts,
- 21:04Speaker 4: Rhode Island of you know, people accusing him of a
- 21:09Speaker 4: pattern of sexual assault, and in the court documents that
- 21:12Speaker 4: even talked about kidnapping. So those haven't been adjudicated. There
- 21:17Speaker 4: are two charges out of Utah, there's a conviction out
- 21:19Speaker 4: of Ohio. You talked about the conviction in Patucket. But
- 21:23Speaker 4: clearly investigators are looking at other allegations that are happening.
- 21:28Speaker 4: And there's even one in We didn't even talk about
- 21:30Speaker 4: the one in the UK, they were investigating an allegation
- 21:35Speaker 4: of sexual assault.
- 21:36Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, I now realize I've got to make
- 21:38Speaker 1: a list. Okay, Tim White, I'm going to have to
- 21:41Speaker 1: make a list. Okay, We've got a right allegation in UK,
- 21:44Speaker 1: We've got Utah or Utah, we have Pawtucket. Okay, what else?
- 21:53Speaker 4: So you have the conviction in Ohio that you've talked
- 21:57Speaker 4: about quite a bit. And there are two charges out
- 21:59Speaker 4: of Utah, one out of Utah County and one out
- 22:03Speaker 4: of Salt Lake City County.
- 22:06Speaker 1: And we're learning that a woman has just come forward
- 22:09Speaker 1: claiming that two years earlier she was assaulted by Alvertian
- 22:14Speaker 1: aka Nick Rossi, the Irish orphan when she was just eighteen.
- 22:18Speaker 1: But hold on, let's plow forward, because I can't wait
- 22:21Speaker 1: to get to him claiming he's an Irish orphan in
- 22:23Speaker 1: Scotland and pretending he's not Alvertian. So he's got the
- 22:29Speaker 1: masturbating on the woman. Now, he's got the beating of
- 22:34Speaker 1: the girlfriend's friend and showing out in the cop car.
- 22:38Speaker 1: But somehow he managed to get a wife. Okay, listen.
- 22:44Speaker 3: Nicholas oliverti And married in November of twenty ten. His
- 22:47Speaker 3: wife filed for divorce six months later and filed a
- 22:50Speaker 3: police report saying she had a restraining order against him,
- 22:53Speaker 3: but Olivertian wouldn't leave her alone and repeatedly called her
- 22:57Speaker 3: police initiate an arrest warrant for violation of a protection.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Olivertian's second marriage lasted one month longer than his first
- 23:03Speaker 3: with his second wife filing for divorce after seven months,
- 23:07Speaker 3: A temporary restraining order against Olivertian is put in place,
- 23:10Speaker 3: but at court rules, he violated it when he took
- 23:13Speaker 3: all the household items and furnishings out of the marital residence.
- 23:16Speaker 3: The Providence General reported Alaverdian owed his ex wife fifty
- 23:20Speaker 3: two thousand dollars.
- 23:22Speaker 1: What a horse's rear end. There's a lot of other
- 23:26Speaker 1: Latin phrases for that, like jack. But not only does
- 23:30Speaker 1: he meet the woman, it's his second wife to follow
- 23:33Speaker 1: tro against him, but then he takes all the furniture
- 23:36Speaker 1: and high household items when he leaves. He's like take that.
- 23:41Speaker 1: He takes all the stuff after he scares the woman
- 23:45Speaker 1: out of her skin. I mean, it never ends with
- 23:48Speaker 1: this guy, hey, doctor Jeff Kalshewski. So many crimes result
- 23:54Speaker 1: from a tumultuous relationship, and the party's own always blame
- 24:00Speaker 1: each other when you have so many people pointing the
- 24:04Speaker 1: finger at you, as I love to argue to jury's
- 24:07Speaker 1: all these women are lying and Alverdian is the only
- 24:11Speaker 1: one telling the truth. He's got two wives, one foster
- 24:16Speaker 1: divorce after six months, one after seven months. Staying power.
- 24:21Speaker 1: You've got women claiming rape, assault, masturbating on them. What
- 24:26Speaker 1: they're all lying except for him, Doctor Jeff Kelshewski.
- 24:30Speaker 8: Right, again, we're talking about this whole narcissistic aspect of
- 24:34Speaker 8: this person. We're talking about likely a personality disorder. And
- 24:39Speaker 8: they actually again they sort of believe their own lives
- 24:43Speaker 8: and the mass conspiracy of all these women from all old.
- 24:46Speaker 1: Now, okay, look, I know you're educated in this and
- 24:50Speaker 1: I am totally ignorant, but let me just go ahead
- 24:54Speaker 1: and argue with you. Anyway. I think he knows he's lying.
- 24:57Speaker 1: I don't think he believes this for one minute. I
- 24:59Speaker 1: think his effrontery is that he's angry other people won't
- 25:05Speaker 1: believe his lies because he's got all his spaces covered
- 25:08Speaker 1: like oj Simpson, what oh?
- 25:11Speaker 8: I think? Yeah, I think you're out of something. He
- 25:13Speaker 8: might He might know he's lying, and again, like you said,
- 25:17Speaker 8: be angry that other people can't accept what he says
- 25:21Speaker 8: is believed, even if he knows it's a lion self.
- 25:23Speaker 1: So here he goes. He's also a deadbeat not paying
- 25:27Speaker 1: the Why that he owes all that money to you
- 25:29Speaker 1: for stealing the furniture. He just skips town. He leaves
- 25:32Speaker 1: Ohio and moves to your jurisdiction. Tim White, Rhode Island,
- 25:38Speaker 1: But the beat goes on. Take a listen to Sidney
- 25:42Speaker 1: Sumner Crime Online.
- 25:43Speaker 9: In twenty seventeen, the Bureau of Justice assistants the BGA
- 25:47Speaker 9: awarded the Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice over two
- 25:50Speaker 9: million dollars for Utah to process the backlog of untested
- 25:54Speaker 9: sexual assault kits in the state. In twenty eighteen, one
- 25:57Speaker 9: of the UTAH kits that was originally filed in two
- 26:00Speaker 9: two thousand and eight was tested and matched Nicholas Olivertian's
- 26:03Speaker 9: DNA from the two thousand and eight Ohio sexual assault case.
- 26:06Speaker 9: A sealed arrest warrant was issued in September twenty twenty
- 26:09Speaker 9: for Nicholas Rossi Aliverdian. But that's not all the police
- 26:13Speaker 9: were looking at him for. The FBI was investigating him
- 26:16Speaker 9: for fraud. One of Alaverdian's foster parents, Sharon Lane, notified
- 26:20Speaker 9: authorities that Alaverdian opened up twenty two different credit cards
- 26:23Speaker 9: in her husband's name and rang up nearly two hundred
- 26:26Speaker 9: thousand dollars in debt.
- 26:28Speaker 1: What is it with this guy? What about it? Tim
- 26:32Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. Two hundred thousand dollars in
- 26:36Speaker 1: debt acually opens up credit cards. Is somebody else's name.
- 26:40Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a lot of money. I mean, look, he is.
- 26:42Speaker 4: And that's not the only one you've already touched on
- 26:45Speaker 4: another in which he allegedly owed in ex ife fifty
- 26:49Speaker 4: two thousand dollars. There's spen other allegations of financial fraud
- 26:54Speaker 4: by Rossi or Alaverdian, whatever name you want to choose,
- 26:57Speaker 4: that he goes by at the time. And look, I
- 27:00Speaker 4: think it all feeds into what doctor Jeff was talking
- 27:03Speaker 4: about earlier in the program, sort of this narcissism that
- 27:08Speaker 4: it's him against the world. He's the victim in all
- 27:10Speaker 4: these cases. That's the type of image that he has
- 27:14Speaker 4: always portrayed when he again thrust himself into the spotlight
- 27:18Speaker 4: here in Rhode Island to accuse the the child welfare
- 27:22Speaker 4: agency of wrongdoing over all that time, and we saw
- 27:27Speaker 4: it firsthand as reporters when he allegedly died. The news
- 27:33Speaker 4: agencies weren't running the o bit because there's old saying
- 27:36Speaker 4: in journalism, Nancy, if your mother says she loves you,
- 27:39Speaker 4: check it out. And this was something that you have
- 27:42Speaker 4: to do when you're looking into the allegation that this
- 27:46Speaker 4: semi high profile figure in this market had died. And
- 27:50Speaker 4: we started getting very angry emails from someone claiming to
- 27:54Speaker 4: be his wife, saying that we're dishonoring his memory by
- 27:58Speaker 4: not blah blah blah. And it's clear to us now
- 28:01Speaker 4: that that was more likely than not Alabertian emailing us.
- 28:05Speaker 1: Directly pretending to be the wife. I mean, this guy,
- 28:07Speaker 1: I'm telling you, and very shortly, I'm going to bring
- 28:10Speaker 1: you on a special guest. Erv Brandt, who travels the world,
- 28:15Speaker 1: is basically a bounty hunter. He doesn't like that term,
- 28:19Speaker 1: but he's with the US Marshall Service senior inspector and
- 28:24Speaker 1: he can tell you anything you want to know about
- 28:26Speaker 1: bringing people just like Nick Rossi aka Alavertian home. Now, okay,
- 28:33Speaker 1: we dropped off with I mean, there's so many places
- 28:37Speaker 1: to drop off. He just charged the quarter million dollars
- 28:40Speaker 1: on one of his foster mom's husband's credit card. Thanks mom,
- 28:48Speaker 1: But that's not really the worst of it. Listen to
- 28:52Speaker 1: Nicole Parton at Crime Stories.
- 28:55Speaker 2: In the meantime, Alavertian continued his sex assault ways twenty
- 29:00Speaker 2: six year old woman online, identified only as the initials MS.
- 29:04Speaker 2: They dated for two months. She loaned him money, but
- 29:07Speaker 2: he didn't pay it back. MS says he locked her
- 29:10Speaker 2: in the bedroom, forced himself on top of her, and
- 29:13Speaker 2: raped her. Utah authorities now say Alaverdian also raped his
- 29:17Speaker 2: twenty one year old former girlfriend in Orum, Utah in
- 29:20Speaker 2: the same year with the same method. He promised to
- 29:23Speaker 2: repay money, lured the woman, who has not been named
- 29:26Speaker 2: by authorities, back to his apartment, and raped her.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Similar actually not similar fingerprint crimes, same modus operandim method
- 29:35Speaker 1: of operation. And I find it really interesting. And I'm
- 29:40Speaker 1: sure that Greg Algren, high profile lawyer joining us out
- 29:44Speaker 1: of Laredo, we'll want to weigh in on this. Earlier,
- 29:49Speaker 1: we heard from investigator reporter Sidney Sumner that the Justice
- 29:54Speaker 1: Bureau awarded two million dollars to process old rape kit.
- 30:00Speaker 1: They were just sitting on the shelf and there wasn't
- 30:03Speaker 1: enough time or money to process them all to catch
- 30:07Speaker 1: the purpse with DNA. It reminds me of Eliza Fletcher,
- 30:12Speaker 1: the Memphis mom who went out jogging early in the morning.
- 30:16Speaker 1: She was raped and murdered by a rapist. Kleiotha abstin
- 30:24Speaker 1: and in that case, there was a rape kit just
- 30:26Speaker 1: sitting on the shelf. It had not been analyzed. Everybody
- 30:30Speaker 1: blames the crime lab, but the crime lab can only
- 30:33Speaker 1: work x number of hours. They need more people and
- 30:36Speaker 1: more money to keep up with all the rape kits
- 30:39Speaker 1: and the crimes. But instead we're spending the taxpayers money
- 30:44Speaker 1: doing so many other things. That's a whole other can
- 30:47Speaker 1: of worms. But if Kleiotha Abston had been behind bars
- 30:52Speaker 1: as he should have been on a rape then Eliza
- 30:55Speaker 1: Fletcher would be alive with her children right now. But no,
- 31:00Speaker 1: the good news out of this is because of that
- 31:02Speaker 1: two million dollar grant, This guy Nick Rossi aka Alaverdian's
- 31:08Speaker 1: DNA pops up. He is the rapist according to diox
- 31:15Speaker 1: Saraibo ni Klake Acid. In the meantime, we've got two
- 31:19Speaker 1: more sex assault victims rape victims, samemo. But then what happens?
- 31:26Speaker 1: Take a listen to Dave mac.
- 31:27Speaker 3: The death of Nicholas Olivertian was met with skepticism by
- 31:30Speaker 3: those in law enforcement, and in July of twenty twenty,
- 31:33Speaker 3: the Rhode Island State Police opened an investigation. As the
- 31:36Speaker 3: investigation began Oliverdian's foster mother, Sharon Lane, said she was
- 31:40Speaker 3: contacted by Aliverdian's biological mother who asked her to check
- 31:44Speaker 3: out the obituary. The minute Sharon Lane read the obituary
- 31:47Speaker 3: with all of the adulatory comments, she believed it was
- 31:50Speaker 3: written by Olivertian himself and that he faked his death.
- 31:53Speaker 3: Utah authorities continued investigating the first rape allegation against Nicholas
- 31:57Speaker 3: Olavertian and issued a warrant for his the rest seven
- 32:01Speaker 3: months after he supposedly died. An FBI search of oll
- 32:04Speaker 3: of Verdian's iCloud account and cell phone records led investigators
- 32:08Speaker 3: to Scotland.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Time Stories with Nancy Grease. IRV brand joining me, Senior Inspector,
- 32:28Speaker 1: US Marshall Service, International Investigations, Chief Inspector DOJ, Office of
- 32:34Speaker 1: International Affairs, author of Solo Shot, Curse of the Bluestone
- 32:39Speaker 1: and Flying Solo, Top of the World. It's about his
- 32:44Speaker 1: books are about this character, the swashbuckling character Jack Solo,
- 32:49Speaker 1: who has a striking similarity to IRV Brandt. So IRV Brandt,
- 32:58Speaker 1: it's not good when seven months after you quote die
- 33:03Speaker 1: that an arrestaurant is issued for you.
- 33:05Speaker 5: No Nancy, it's not good. It's a very good investigation
- 33:10Speaker 5: by multiple jurisdictions and that led to finding Aliavertian in Scotland.
- 33:17Speaker 1: And it's really amazing the way that they find him.
- 33:20Speaker 1: I want you to take a listen to Sidney Sumner
- 33:22Speaker 1: Crime online.
- 33:23Speaker 9: As investigators were looking for Nicholas Alavertian and Nicholas Rossi
- 33:27Speaker 9: in the United States, a man named Arthur Knight was
- 33:30Speaker 9: being treated for COVID nineteen at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital
- 33:33Speaker 9: in Glasglow.
- 33:34Speaker 1: He had been living a happy new life.
- 33:36Speaker 9: Married a woman named Miranda, and he worked as a tutor,
- 33:39Speaker 9: but then he suffered a serious case of numanitis caused
- 33:42Speaker 9: by COVID nineteen. Someone recognized him through his distinctive tattoos.
- 33:46Speaker 9: They were a match to those from a Pawtucket police
- 33:49Speaker 9: booking photo of him. In December twenty twenty one, they
- 33:52Speaker 9: arrested the convicted sex offender in the Glasglow hospital where
- 33:55Speaker 9: he lay critically ill. With COVID authority say Knight was
- 33:58Speaker 9: just one of Alivertians sixteen known aliases, which include Nicholas Rossi,
- 34:03Speaker 9: Nicholas Brown, Arthur Brown, and Arthur Knight Brown. He was
- 34:06Speaker 9: identified through fingerprints and DNA, as well as an analysis
- 34:10Speaker 9: of his distinctive tattoos.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Okay, to you, Tim White, joining us from wp r IV.
- 34:19Speaker 1: What is the distinctive tattoo?
- 34:21Speaker 4: Well, actually, I was looking at some of those pictures
- 34:24Speaker 4: just getting ready for this interview, and he has some
- 34:26Speaker 4: tattoos on his arm that you know. I'm gonna call
- 34:31Speaker 4: up some of the pictures here so I gotta describe him.
- 34:33Speaker 4: But he had tattoos on his arms that you know,
- 34:36Speaker 4: they're they're very distinct.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I'm looking at them. It looks like
- 34:42Speaker 1: some kind of a bizarre coat of arms with the
- 34:45Speaker 1: son coming up over the coat of arms and giant wings,
- 34:50Speaker 1: I mean they go. It's almost a full sleeve. And
- 34:53Speaker 1: on the other arm, it looks something like a navy anchor.
- 34:58Speaker 1: He's covered the anchor.
- 35:00Speaker 4: It's the symbol of Rhode Island. It's on our state flag.
- 35:03Speaker 5: Here.
- 35:03Speaker 4: I suspect that's probably White as I'm there.
- 35:06Speaker 1: Oh okay, Now, of course, with all of these distinctive tattoos,
- 35:13Speaker 1: that's one way to put it. And sixteen known aliases.
- 35:19Speaker 1: Of course, Greg Augrin, high profile warrior out of Laredo.
- 35:24Speaker 1: I love nothing more when the prosecutor reads the indictment
- 35:28Speaker 1: to the jury and reads off the witnesses to make
- 35:32Speaker 1: sure none of them are related or know the witnesses.
- 35:35Speaker 1: I love it when the whole front page of the
- 35:37Speaker 1: indictment is a listing of the defendants aliases aka Alverdian
- 35:43Speaker 1: aka Nicholas Brown aka Author Brown aka author Knight. I mean,
- 35:50Speaker 1: because nobody on the jury is going to have an alias,
- 35:53Speaker 1: just a defendant.
- 35:54Speaker 7: Yeah, that is obviously this guy is a serial CNN
- 36:01Speaker 7: experienced criminal.
- 36:03Speaker 1: It gives a jury a horrible impression, but it's true,
- 36:07Speaker 1: and you have to read off all the aliases to
- 36:09Speaker 1: the jury in case they know him under some fake name.
- 36:14Speaker 1: So it's a necessity of the law. But when ladies,
- 36:18Speaker 1: when you meet a guy that a wants money in
- 36:22Speaker 1: b has an alias and I'll just throw this in
- 36:25Speaker 1: there has a second cell phone, run for the hills
- 36:29Speaker 1: as if you had seen a monster. So to you,
- 36:32Speaker 1: IRV Brant, how did they track this guy down? And
- 36:36Speaker 1: of course he wouldn't waive extradition. He insisted he was
- 36:40Speaker 1: an Irish orphan and challenged authorities to prove he wasn't.
- 36:45Speaker 1: So how do you tackle something like that or Brant.
- 36:47Speaker 5: Well, Nancy, it's in the UK. It's very complicated. They
- 36:51Speaker 5: have an extensive appeals system.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Just a second, anywhere the lawyers have to wear, including women,
- 36:58Speaker 1: a white wig on their head. I would say, it's complicated,
- 37:02Speaker 1: but go ahead, Okay.
- 37:03Speaker 5: You're right it is. And he maintained the whole time
- 37:09Speaker 5: that authorities had the wrong individual, even though he was
- 37:13Speaker 5: confronted with DNA evidence, fingerprints, the distinctive tattoos. His defense
- 37:23Speaker 5: was always that's not me. So he contested the identity
- 37:28Speaker 5: part of the extradition all the way through the appeal process,
- 37:33Speaker 5: until finally the Crown decided that it is indeed the
- 37:38Speaker 5: same person wanted in the United States, and the Crown
- 37:42Speaker 5: issued a surrender warrant to the Office of International Affairs
- 37:45Speaker 5: and the US Marshall Service conducted the extradition.
- 37:49Speaker 1: How are they typically brought back from overseas.
- 37:52Speaker 5: Well, typically they would be brought back on a commercial flight.
- 37:56Speaker 1: I mean with paying customers like myself and my children.
- 37:59Speaker 1: I all of this guy sitting behind me.
- 38:00Speaker 5: Well, the marshals would take up a whole row and
- 38:04Speaker 5: they would take the last row and there you ever.
- 38:08Speaker 1: See snakes on a plane? Man? Think about it?
- 38:12Speaker 5: Right. The marshals would either normally go be the first
- 38:17Speaker 5: one insta board and they would take them to the
- 38:19Speaker 5: very last row and there would be marshals on both
- 38:22Speaker 5: sides of them, and he wouldn't be allowed to get
- 38:24Speaker 5: up during the flight. But in a case like this,
- 38:28Speaker 5: this lunatic is not going to get on a commercial flight.
- 38:31Speaker 5: He's going to fake a medical emergency. The flight crew
- 38:36Speaker 5: would not let him on the flight. So what the
- 38:40Speaker 5: Marshal Service did, and this is typical of cases of
- 38:45Speaker 5: this nature, is they would charter a flight and in
- 38:49Speaker 5: the charter, in the bid for the charter, the flight
- 38:52Speaker 5: crew would have medical personnel and also the Marshall Service
- 38:57Speaker 5: have deputies trained em keys that they would put on
- 39:02Speaker 5: that extradition to bring him back and they would fly
- 39:05Speaker 5: him from the UK to the East Coast to the
- 39:08Speaker 5: United States, normally someplace like Bangor, Maine, to go through
- 39:13Speaker 5: CBP where they would file the parole letter to get
- 39:17Speaker 5: him back into the country Custom Border Protection. It's going
- 39:23Speaker 5: through immigration, is what I'm saying. I'm sorry why Bangor, Well,
- 39:29Speaker 5: the jets that they would we're going to have to
- 39:33Speaker 5: refuel after a transatlantic flight. Bangor is one of the
- 39:38Speaker 5: closest you go further up the East coast in instead
- 39:44Speaker 5: of New York or someplace, or you know, Atlanta, one
- 39:48Speaker 5: of those international airports. You go as far north as
- 39:51Speaker 5: you can because it's the shortest route to the United Kingdom.
- 39:54Speaker 1: So wait a minute. He faked an ailment and tried
- 39:57Speaker 1: not to get on the plane.
- 39:58Speaker 5: Well, he they ailments in the past, and court appearances.
- 40:04Speaker 5: He'd faked illnesses, and the Marshall Service knows this, so
- 40:08Speaker 5: they know trying to put him on a commercial flight
- 40:11Speaker 5: would be a waste of time because when they brought
- 40:13Speaker 5: him to the gateway, he's going to fake an illness
- 40:16Speaker 5: and the flight crew won't let him on the flight.
- 40:20Speaker 5: So to get around that, they were charted the flight
- 40:25Speaker 5: fly to the East Coast.
- 40:27Speaker 1: I can't believe my taxpayer's money is going to fly
- 40:30Speaker 1: this guy. How I'm on a charter flight, but I'd
- 40:32Speaker 1: rather do that than have him on a plane with
- 40:35Speaker 1: children and innocent, innocent civilians. This guy shot to fame.
- 40:41Speaker 1: I'll just call him Nick Rossi, although that's certainly not
- 40:43Speaker 1: his name, after he wildly gestured when he insisted he
- 40:50Speaker 1: was innocent, so much so that he fogged up his
- 40:53Speaker 1: own glasses. So Greg Algrin, international lawyer, joining US out
- 40:58Speaker 1: of Texas. How do you fight extradition when DNA not
- 41:04Speaker 1: just fingerprints, but DNA also proves it's you. You're not
- 41:08Speaker 1: an Irish orphan living in Scotland, You're a rapist in
- 41:13Speaker 1: multiple US jurisdictions.
- 41:15Speaker 7: Yeah, that's difficult. So it seems like there's no question
- 41:18Speaker 7: here was the individual they're looking for. I mean there
- 41:23Speaker 7: are obviously, you know, there are technicalities that have to
- 41:26Speaker 7: be followed, procedural formalities, and so if you were defense
- 41:32Speaker 7: counsel in an extradition matter, you know, you would argue
- 41:36Speaker 7: that the different due process protocols hadn't been complied with.
- 41:42Speaker 7: You could also argue that there was a discrepancy in
- 41:48Speaker 7: the criminal law systems between the two different jurisdictions that
- 41:52Speaker 7: made the crimes incompatible.
- 41:54Speaker 1: I'm looking right now at Nicholas Rossi, Nicolas Rossi with
- 41:58Speaker 1: air quotes assistent that he cannot breathe properly or walk,
- 42:03Speaker 1: and he has now put an oxygen mask on his face,
- 42:07Speaker 1: and he is actually fogging up his glasses as he
- 42:12Speaker 1: vehemently denies being Alverdian, and his wife on video overpowers
- 42:20Speaker 1: him and forces him to sit back down because he
- 42:23Speaker 1: is so ill. Long story short, if there is such
- 42:27Speaker 1: a thing in this case, Tim White, where is he
- 42:30Speaker 1: now and what is next?
- 42:32Speaker 4: Yeah, he's in Utah right now. He is being transferred
- 42:35Speaker 4: from one county to another. He was transferred to Davis County,
- 42:40Speaker 4: Utah because they have the contract with the US Marshall
- 42:43Speaker 4: Service when detainees come into that state, that's where they
- 42:47Speaker 4: go from the US Marshall Service. He will then go
- 42:50Speaker 4: either to Salt Lake City County or Utah County, which
- 42:54Speaker 4: is where I think he's going to go, because that
- 42:56Speaker 4: is the original charge that came out of that two
- 42:59Speaker 4: thousand and seven test of the rate kits that you
- 43:02Speaker 4: discussed earlier. I do want to jump back real quick, Nancy,
- 43:05Speaker 4: briefly on one thing that a guest said earlier. Not
- 43:09Speaker 4: only did he maintain that he was Arthur Knight that
- 43:13Speaker 4: entire time, trying to drag out the process, the legal
- 43:16Speaker 4: process in the UK, he alleged it was part of
- 43:19Speaker 4: a grand conspiracy that the tattoos on his arms that
- 43:23Speaker 4: were an exact match to the booking photos of Patucket,
- 43:26Speaker 4: Rhode Island from the police Department there were placed on
- 43:29Speaker 4: his arms while he was unconscious at a Scotland, Scottish hospital,
- 43:34Speaker 4: he said that the fingerprint match those were faked, so
- 43:38Speaker 4: that it was a government fake, that the DNA that
- 43:40Speaker 4: was fake. So not only did he just simply maintain it,
- 43:44Speaker 4: he went through extraordinary lengths to try to maintain that
- 43:48Speaker 4: image that he was this Irish orphan mistaken identity over
- 43:54Speaker 4: in the UK. It's pretty wild, Jim.
- 43:55Speaker 1: Why I want to thank you for making me the
- 43:58Speaker 1: happiest woman on earth right now, because not only is
- 44:01Speaker 1: their DNA proving that he is a rapist, and believe
- 44:05Speaker 1: you me, women are lining up around the courthouse to
- 44:10Speaker 1: testify against him, but now he's saying there's a conspiracy. Oh,
- 44:15Speaker 1: I love that. I remember prosecuting. I get one hundred
- 44:18Speaker 1: new cases a week. I didn't have time to prosecute
- 44:21Speaker 1: and investigate those cases, much less cook up a conspiracy
- 44:26Speaker 1: against an innocent person. I'm so happy that they tattooed
- 44:30Speaker 1: him in his sleep and faked his fingerprints.
- 44:34Speaker 9: Oh.
- 44:34Speaker 1: I can't wait for the jury to hear that. We
- 44:37Speaker 1: wait as justice of the folds, not a bounty hunter.
- 44:42Speaker 1: Goodbye Fred
