  Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome back to the program. A
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: few weeks ago we were talking about a Tennessee man
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: who had been accused of murdering his newlywed wife while
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: they were on vacation for their honeymoon in Fiji. Well,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: we have an update on that case and the man
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: who is being charged being suspected of this murder, Bradley Dawson, well,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: he denies that he murdered his wife on the Fiji trip.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: So we have an article from the New York Post today.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Let's dive in and get caught up. Headline, newlywed Bradley
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Dawson denies confessing to murdering his wife on Fiji honeymoon.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: This article was authored by Sneyana Farberov. A Tennessee man
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: accused of murdering his newlywed wife during their honeymoon on
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Fiji denied confessing to the slaying as he asked a
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: judge to release him on bail due to poor health.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Now he's being held over in Fiji. And he's asking
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: the judge, obviously, for his release for what he says
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: has to do with his health. Now, I don't know
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: how much I believe that, considering, you know, relatively young man.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Never heard anything about any health issues up to now.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, it's your health issues that are,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: you know, driving you trying to get out of jail here.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: When you're alleged to have committed such a heinous crime,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: especially in a foreign country. It's very rare that a
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: judge is going to let you out. Bradley Dawson, 38,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: appeared in the high court of Lakota on Wednesday and
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: pleaded not guilty to killing Christy Chen Dawson, 36, at
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: the exclusive Turtle Island Resort in July. The woman was
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: found lying in a pool of blood in the bathroom
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: after allegedly having been beaten to death inside the couple's
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: bungalow on July 9th, just two days after the Dawsons
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: had checked into the tropical resort. So this couple was
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: on their honeymoon, right? They go to Fiji, this tropical resort.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: It's a dream vacation. Can you imagine going to Fiji?
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I haven't had a day off in like four years, folks.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: As you can tell, considering I don't miss a day
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: here on the podcast, I can only imagine how great
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: it would be to be sitting around in Fiji right now.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Ass in the sand, toes in the water. Who the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: hell thinks it's a good idea to murder their wife
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: on their honeymoon in Fiji? Certainly somebody who deserves to
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: be in prison, that's for damn sure. If you can't
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: have a good trip while you're in Fiji, you're not
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: having a good trip anywhere on Earth, and you're just
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a miserable bastard. An autopsy report reviewed by Daily Mail
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: later found that the Tennessee pharmacist died of multiple traumatic injuries,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: including head trauma, resulting in a brain bleed. So what happened?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Did the chupacabra sneak into the room and kill her, Mr. Dawson?
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: That must have been one slip and fall, one hell
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: of a slip and fall, I should say, to cause
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: all of those injuries. And considering we know that more
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: times than not, it's the intimate partner that somebody is
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: with that ends up being their killer. Well, what should
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: everybody believe, Mr. Dawson? And of course, he has no
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: real excuses, no real alibis. Dawson was arrested the following
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: day on a remote island a mile away, which he
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: had reached by kayak. Yeah, that's exactly what innocent men do.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: My wife is hurt, she's dead, whatever. I'm gonna hop
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: on my kayak and go take a ride. If you
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: didn't do this, and you walked in the room and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: she was hurt or whatever, it wouldn't be, ah, well,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna go take a kayak ride. It
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: would be absolute bedlam, freaking out, having an anxiety attack,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: breaking down. Imagine the person you love the most and
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you walk in and you see her in such a state.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: So who did it if it wasn't you, Mr. Dawson?
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: There's a serial killer running around this island and murdering newlyweds. Well,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: how come you're the only couple that's been targeted? prosecutors
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: presented Judge Riaz Hamza the contents of Dawson's police interview
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: after his arrest, in which they said the suspect admitted
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to getting into a drunken fight with his wife, which
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: escalated to a physical confrontation, resulting in a shattered window
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: and a cracked toilet in their cottage, reported ABC News.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: And look, let's be very clear. This drinking shit is
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: all bad. There's people out there that'll tell you, oh,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: marijuana is horrible and Not like booze. You want to
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: talk about a drug or poison that has really caused
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of damage? It's alcohol. Do any of you
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: have a family that doesn't have at least one weird-ass
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: alcoholic in it? One person who babbles and stumbles around
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and is a slob? Everybody's been affected by alcoholism. And
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: how many times do we hear of stories like this
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: where there's a confrontation between a couple in a domestic
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: disturbance and it's all based on being drunk? Now, that's
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: not the real cause, right? That's just one of the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: reasons that someone might feel, let us say, brazen enough
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: to go this far. But there's obviously a lot of
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: underlying causes as well. And the main responsibility is not
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: on the booze or the drugs. It's on the person
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: who's committing the crime. Seems a lot of people forget that.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Christy was next to the toilet. She was hurt, Dawson
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: allegedly told police. There was blood and a cut on
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: her face. The IT specialist said that he freaked out
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: and fled on a kayak, prosecutors said. Adding that at
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the time of Dawson's arrest, he was found to be
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: in possession of $ 1, 000 in cash, his passport, and two
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: credit cards. So, she was next to the toilet and
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: she was hurt. And you decided... To take your bitch
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: ass on a kayak ride. With a dime in your pocket.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Your credit cards. And your passport. As somebody who takes
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: kayak rides. I don't ever take any of that stuff
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: with me. Maybe my ID. My driver's license or whatever
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: in my wet bag. But besides that I'm not taking
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: a thousand bucks with me out there. That's ridiculous. In
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: fact I'm probably not taking any cash. A credit card
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: maybe in the dry bag. Something like that. But. Come on, man.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: You have no excuse for having this sort of exit
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: when your lady's all messed up. During the hearing on Wednesday,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Dawson's attorney, Iqbal Khan, challenged the prosecution's claim that his
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: client had admitted guilt in his wife's death. Khan told
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the court that after his interview with the local police,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Dawson refused to sign a statement allegedly containing a confession. Now, look,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know the laws over here, and I don't
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: know how... this sort of thing works the back and
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: forth between suspects and lawyers and prosecutors and all of
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the rest of it but you would think that Dawson
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: right after the fact was rattled and shook and the
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: investigators got him to confess and then once he got
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: himself a lawyer well he wants to recant that confession
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: right Dawson's defense attorney asked the judge to set bail
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: for his release, arguing in a court filing that he
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: is not in good health and needs to consult doctors
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: about his prescription medications, according to Fox News. You can't
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: have a doctor come in there, take a look at
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: him and prescribe some prescriptions. Some of these people and
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: their asks are absolutely insane. Imagine this was your daughter
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: who was murdered like this and the scumbag who you
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: think did it wants to get out because he can't
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: get a refill on his prescription. Should have thought about
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: that before you murdered this girl, this woman. The filing
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: also alleged that Dawson's mother depends on him financially and
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: will mentally suffer if he remained jail. Hey, look, I
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: feel sorry for Dawson's mom, right? It's not that I
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: don't have empathy for her, but unfortunately your son, allegedly,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: committed a heinous act here and he's going to have
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: to pay the price. Kahn argued in the bail application
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: that holding Dawson without bail until his trial, which could
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: begin as late as 2024, would be a substantial miscarriage
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: of justice. If the judge agrees to set bail for Dawson,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: his lawyer promised that he would turn in his passport
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: and stay at a friend's house in Lega Lega, Nadi.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: So I guess that's a locale close to where this
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: is taking place. And I guess he has some friends
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: over here. prosecutors and Chen Dawson's family had opposed Balfour Dawson,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: claiming that he was a flight risk, citing his hasty
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: escape after his own wife's death. If I was the judge,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I would take that into account, and I probably would
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: not let this guy go. Whenever you have something like this,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: something as disgustingly gross as a murder like this, where
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: somebody has shown a complete lack of of regard for
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: human life and for their loved one? And that person
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: can flee or is shown a propensity to do that? Yeah,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: you're staying in jail, buddy. Sorry. Prosecutor Alvin Singh also
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: noted that the friend who would be hosting Dawson is
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: currently facing sex crime charges. Well, isn't that nice? So
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: an alleged murderer is going to go and stay with
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: an alleged sex offender? Boy, sounds like a jail cell
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: that's containing Ghislaine Maxwell and her new best friend. Before
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the hearing, Dawson told ABC News that he regrets he
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: could not protect his wife and said he was reading
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: the Bible daily and praying for Chen Dawson. I can
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: only think of her and pray for her, he told
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the outlet. I love her so much. Yeah, we can tell, buddy.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: You should think and pray for yourself because where you're going,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: where you're going to end up, you're going to need
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: all of those prayers. And the audacity of this scumbag.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: You're praying for her? Bro, you're the one who killed her.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? The couple wed in February
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: of 2022 after what has been described as a whirlwind
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: romance reported by the Daily Beast. A bail hearing for
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Dawson has been set for September 14th. Yo, this is
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: a wild story. And the brutality of it is what
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: really got me. Who goes on a honeymoon and then
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: allegedly there's an argument with your wife that's fueled by
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: booze and this is what the end result is? So
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: this guy has no good excuse. He has no alibis.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And as far as I can see it, he's going
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: to be in big trouble. So we'll have to see
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: what happens at this bail hearing on September 14th, but
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: when we have more information, we will definitely add it
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: to the catalog. All right, folks, it's going to do
• 11:00
