Transcript
- 0:21Speaker 1: Hey everyone, welcome to bless This Mess with the True
- 0:22Speaker 1: Grand Podcast. O'tka here where Stu say? Hey Stu? Hi,
- 0:25Speaker 1: all right, we're back this week and we are going
- 0:28Speaker 1: to Kentucky. We haven't been there in a long time.
- 0:31Speaker 2: About Bargstown. Every time we do Kentucky.
- 0:34Speaker 1: It's a small state, so there's not as many or
- 0:37Speaker 1: maybe there's a lot of murders and nobody just talking
- 0:39Speaker 1: about them. I don't know, but it's harder to find
- 0:42Speaker 1: ones in like Kentucky. I feel like, although I think
- 0:45Speaker 1: there was another one I was going to look into.
- 0:47Speaker 1: But anyways, Yeah, we're going. We're going to Kentucky this
- 0:50Speaker 1: week and then so we'll have an episode this week
- 0:54Speaker 1: and then possibly next week, but definitely not the next week.
- 1:02Speaker 1: We will have a so I did so we were
- 1:05Speaker 1: talking about on the for the Patreon. I have been
- 1:09Speaker 1: the first episode of the Scott Peterson Face to Face.
- 1:13Speaker 1: I have written that first episode. But it's gonna be
- 1:17Speaker 1: like a new thing for me and stud record something
- 1:19Speaker 1: like this like this isn't our normal thing. Normally I
- 1:23Speaker 1: write the whole thing, we read it, we might interject
- 1:26Speaker 1: our thoughts or whatever, get off track. Some may say
- 1:30Speaker 1: it's been been known for us to do, but this
- 1:33Speaker 1: is us like summarizing an episode and then also giving
- 1:37Speaker 1: our opinions. So I don't know it's gonna be different.
- 1:40Speaker 1: So we'll see how it goes. But that's our plan.
- 1:43Speaker 1: It's the Scott Peterson face to face. It's on Peacock,
- 1:47Speaker 1: not the one on Netflix. This is the one. So
- 1:48Speaker 1: two came out at the same time, the American Murder
- 1:51Speaker 1: one on Netflix and then the one Scott Peterson face
- 1:54Speaker 1: to face. However, ironically they are not face to face
- 1:59Speaker 1: with Scott Peter. He is on a zoom and two.
- 2:03Speaker 1: There's not a lot of him in the actual of
- 2:05Speaker 1: him talking in the Dog. It's not like him just
- 2:07Speaker 1: being interviewed and then they talk about it whatever. There's
- 2:11Speaker 1: a lot of other people talk. There's a lot of
- 2:15Speaker 1: other people actually talking face to face with people, but
- 2:18Speaker 1: not actually Scott Peterson. So so we'll do we'll try
- 2:21Speaker 1: to do that and we'll see how it goes. It
- 2:23Speaker 1: could be a disaster and then what's going on with
- 2:28Speaker 1: the stew.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Just chaos.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Yeah, So I don't did we mention before about I
- 2:36Speaker 1: thought we mentioned about.
- 2:37Speaker 2: The dog, Yeah, the neighbors.
- 2:40Speaker 1: We might have mentioned about the neighbors. Okay, So here's
- 2:42Speaker 1: what happened, guys. He oh, shut up, stew you should
- 2:48Speaker 1: be thankful. I did something.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I told you I'd find out who owned it and
- 2:53Speaker 2: go from there.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Okay, but you didn't do anything.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Well, shut I said the name, and the next thing
- 2:58Speaker 2: I know, you're off.
- 2:59Speaker 1: No, okay, whatever, but you weren't actually gonna do anything
- 3:01Speaker 1: about it.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I was gonna find out who the land was.
- 3:04Speaker 1: So here's what's happening, guys. Shut up, here's no you
- 3:09Speaker 1: shut up, okay, So here's what happened. Guns. So we
- 3:13Speaker 1: bought this house and we moved in, and everything was great.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Like our neighbors. Like our neighbors on the one side
- 3:19Speaker 1: have some dogs or like some wine wine riners that
- 3:23Speaker 1: they rescue and stuff. No big deal. You hear them
- 3:26Speaker 1: like normal dog stuff, Like they bark, but they're pretty
- 3:28Speaker 1: well kept dogs and everything that.
- 3:30Speaker 2: I mean.
- 3:30Speaker 1: We're dog people. We've always had dogs. This is the
- 3:32Speaker 1: first time we actually haven't had a dog so anyway,
- 3:35Speaker 1: so it doesn't bothers like dogs barking or just dogs
- 3:38Speaker 1: being dogs. Well, the renter, we didn't realize the people
- 3:41Speaker 1: next to us were actually rent renters. So whenever these
- 3:44Speaker 1: nice people moved out, these other people moved in, and
- 3:47Speaker 1: they're like chaos. So they always have like five or
- 3:51Speaker 1: six cars in their driveway. We don't even know who
- 3:53Speaker 1: actually is renting the home, but the most But whatever,
- 3:56Speaker 1: I don't really care. Do whatever you want. It doesn't matter.
- 4:00Speaker 1: I'll complain about it over here, but I don't. It's
- 4:02Speaker 1: not I'm not going to do anything about it. It
- 4:03Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. If you want to have cars, all,
- 4:07Speaker 1: just don't park in front of our house anyways. But
- 4:10Speaker 1: the problem is is they brought this dog with them.
- 4:12Speaker 1: And now I'm not going to get into as to
- 4:15Speaker 1: whether people are people are very divisive over like pit
- 4:18Speaker 1: bulls versus they don't want pit bulls around or whatever.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, there's pit bulls in the neighborhood.
- 4:24Speaker 1: There's a lady who walks for pitbull, perfectly docile dog,
- 4:30Speaker 1: nothing to worry about it. It walks around the neighborhood, everything's good.
- 4:33Speaker 1: This pit bull is not kept, is not properly cared for,
- 4:39Speaker 1: so he has become extremely aggressive. So this doll comes
- 4:42Speaker 1: out the minute he sees us out in the yard.
- 4:44Speaker 1: He's like throwing himself at the fence, trying to break
- 4:47Speaker 1: through our fence to get to us, like growling, barking,
- 4:50Speaker 1: running up and down everything like that. So I'm like,
- 4:52Speaker 1: oh my god, this is like this, this was day one.
- 4:55Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, this is so bad. Like
- 4:57Speaker 1: so I'm sorry on to panic because I'm like, if
- 4:58Speaker 1: this dog gets through the fence, he's gonna I mean,
- 5:00Speaker 1: we have small children. He could if he got a
- 5:03Speaker 1: hold one of them, he would kill the child. So anyway,
- 5:06Speaker 1: so I'm starting I just am like consumed with this.
- 5:09Speaker 1: This is just eating me up. I spend till three
- 5:11Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning. We're not looking up like pitbull
- 5:13Speaker 1: stuff and statistics and everything because I'm just freaked out
- 5:16Speaker 1: by this dog. Not to mention, they let it out
- 5:18Speaker 1: at like midnight. He's not a happy dog like he's
- 5:22Speaker 1: because they don't I don't think they they you know,
- 5:25Speaker 1: interact with him a lot or I don't know what's
- 5:27Speaker 1: going on. So they'll let him out at like midnight
- 5:30Speaker 1: and he'll run up and down. He's barking at nothing.
- 5:32Speaker 1: There could be nothing out there, but I think he's
- 5:33Speaker 1: locked up inside. So then whenever he gets out, he
- 5:35Speaker 1: just runs up and down the fence, barking, barking, barking.
- 5:39Speaker 1: He does it on the other side of the fence.
- 5:40Speaker 1: We got one of them dog bark things to see
- 5:42Speaker 1: if we could stop. But the problem is he's so
- 5:44Speaker 1: loud because he's a really like big muscular dog. He
- 5:49Speaker 1: goes to the other side to the other neighbors and barks,
- 5:51Speaker 1: but he's so loud, and these walls are so thin
- 5:53Speaker 1: you can hear him. Anyways, and then our daughters started
- 5:56Speaker 1: waking up whenever, having like night terrors when the dog
- 5:59Speaker 1: was out there, I guess because it's right by our window,
- 6:01Speaker 1: and it's like it is scary. He's scary sounding, an
- 6:03Speaker 1: he's scary looking guys. Okay, he's trying to get his
- 6:07Speaker 1: way through the fence. So then this is a long story.
- 6:10Speaker 1: So if you want to just fast forward another like
- 6:11Speaker 1: two minutes, that's great. Anyways, So then we're out walking.
- 6:16Speaker 1: So we're been walking down to after the whole debacle
- 6:18Speaker 1: with the with the shitty little kids down at the park,
- 6:22Speaker 1: we walked down to another park in our neighborhood, a little
- 6:25Speaker 1: small one. Well, we're coming back and the guy's like, hey,
- 6:27Speaker 1: the guy, there's a neighbor like two doors down. He's like, hey,
- 6:30Speaker 1: do you recognize this dog? And I hear that dog
- 6:33Speaker 1: barking in his backyard. I'm like, oh, I know that dog.
- 6:35Speaker 1: I said, that's our neighbor's dog. He's like, yeah, just
- 6:38Speaker 1: ended up in our fence somehow. He's like, I don't
- 6:40Speaker 1: even know how it's didn't I didn't see there's no
- 6:43Speaker 1: way he got in or anything. And like, the dog's
- 6:45Speaker 1: not tipped. I would say it jumper. I mean, I
- 6:47Speaker 1: haven't seen him jump, but I mean is a He's
- 6:49Speaker 1: a strong dog, so maybe he could have jumped, but
- 6:52Speaker 1: this would have been him like jumping multiple fences. So
- 6:54Speaker 1: I don't really know how he got in that backyard,
- 6:56Speaker 1: if someone put him in there or what happened. And
- 6:58Speaker 1: so I was like, oh, no, that's for sure that dog.
- 7:01Speaker 1: So he shows me a picture of it and I'm like, yeah,
- 7:04Speaker 1: I'm I'm ninety nine percent sure those people's dog. And
- 7:07Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, he's real aggressive. He's like growling at me,
- 7:09Speaker 1: and I can't go in my backyard because he's got
- 7:11Speaker 1: a bite man stuff. So he posted on the Facebook
- 7:15Speaker 1: group in the you know in our neighborhood group and
- 7:18Speaker 1: like the sister of the people come over. Is like, Oh,
- 7:20Speaker 1: I'm gonna come. He come. We passed back by and
- 7:22Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, the sister says she's coming to get
- 7:24Speaker 1: the dog. He's like, I don't know, dude, they haven't
- 7:25Speaker 1: shown up yet. Blah blah blah. They come and get
- 7:27Speaker 1: the dog. No caller, no leash, no nothing, he said.
- 7:30Speaker 1: I couldn't believe they took that dog out in the public,
- 7:33Speaker 1: like outside of the fence, with no anything, he said,
- 7:36Speaker 1: because he's like aggressive, like it's not a good a
- 7:39Speaker 1: good thing. So you know, So now I'm spiraling, guys,
- 7:43Speaker 1: I am spiraling. I'm like, oh my god, this dog
- 7:47Speaker 1: all I am. I'm like I'm looking up, like can
- 7:50Speaker 1: a dog get in a house? And then I start
- 7:51Speaker 1: reading all these stories about like oh these this pack
- 7:54Speaker 1: of pitbulls like broke into this woman's house and like
- 7:56Speaker 1: attacked her blah blah blah. So I'm like, Okay, I
- 8:00Speaker 1: gotta do something about this. I don't care. And if
- 8:01Speaker 1: you have children out there, you'll understand, Like I'll literally
- 8:04Speaker 1: at this point, if I think the dog is gonna
- 8:06Speaker 1: hurt the children, I'll go to any means if I
- 8:09Speaker 1: need to call whatever I have to do. So I
- 8:14Speaker 1: start doing some Stuw's like, well, you can find out
- 8:15Speaker 1: who the homeowner is. So I found out who the
- 8:17Speaker 1: homeowner is and then I start Facebook sleuthing. So I
- 8:21Speaker 1: found these people. The wife and the husband were still
- 8:24Speaker 1: in our Facebook group. So I'm like, okay, maybe they
- 8:26Speaker 1: still own the house because I noticed that they had
- 8:28Speaker 1: had a moving garage cell back in May of twenty
- 8:31Speaker 1: twenty three stew so they either moved and sold the house,
- 8:35Speaker 1: but the property records showed that they still own the house.
- 8:37Speaker 1: So then I'm like, okay, I'm gonna message these people
- 8:39Speaker 1: on Facebook. They now live in Australia though, so I've
- 8:43Speaker 1: for work and then I started looking and like we
- 8:45Speaker 1: kind of work in the same circles. I'm like, no, Stu,
- 8:47Speaker 1: we can. If they don't answer on Facebook, I can.
- 8:49Speaker 1: I can track this guy down because our company works
- 8:52Speaker 1: with his company. So I messaged her. I'm like, hey,
- 8:57Speaker 1: sorry to bother you, but do you still own the house?
- 9:02Speaker 1: And I put the address and I said, I said,
- 9:04Speaker 1: because it looks like there's renders now renders there now,
- 9:08Speaker 1: I was just or or anyways, So I told her
- 9:11Speaker 1: that I didn't tell her why I was messaging her.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Because I wanted her to respond, but you know, your
- 9:15Speaker 1: messages go to like your message request on Facebook, so
- 9:18Speaker 1: maybe someone didn't see it or whatever. And so then
- 9:20Speaker 1: the next day I didn't hear back from her. So
- 9:22Speaker 1: next day I messaged the husband to see and so
- 9:25Speaker 1: I told you, I'm gonna sit on it. I'm not
- 9:26Speaker 1: gonna be crazy. But the next thing I'm going is
- 9:28Speaker 1: LinkedIn to the message room, and then if all's fails,
- 9:31Speaker 1: I'm dropping the bomb and I'm going to work and
- 9:33Speaker 1: I'm finding this person because I could do it. So
- 9:37Speaker 1: finally the wife, she she messages back and she's like, yeah,
- 9:41Speaker 1: we moved from there and and everything like that, and
- 9:45Speaker 1: I said, okay, I said, well I saw. I did
- 9:47Speaker 1: a whole like four paragraphs of how my feeling. I
- 9:49Speaker 1: wanted to get everything out in case she was just like, oh, well,
- 9:52Speaker 1: fuck you, we don't care. We're just trying to make
- 9:54Speaker 1: some money over there. Well she was like, oh my god.
- 9:56Speaker 1: She's like I gotta call for me. She's like, they're
- 9:57Speaker 1: not supposed to have pets over there at all, and
- 10:00Speaker 1: they're definitely not supposed to have a pit bull over there,
- 10:03Speaker 1: because as we know, if you have a rental house.
- 10:05Speaker 1: You cannot there. The insurance will not cover you for
- 10:09Speaker 1: a renter with like a pit bull or a rottweiler,
- 10:12Speaker 1: or even like German shepherds or sometimes or even.
- 10:16Speaker 2: What are those any of the bully bird?
- 10:19Speaker 1: Yeah, any of those, like the higher risk dogs, they
- 10:22Speaker 1: will not ensure you. So I was telling that, So
- 10:24Speaker 1: she's like panicking. I guess she's over in Australia. It's
- 10:26Speaker 1: like she said, it's like one o'clock in the morning.
- 10:28Speaker 1: She's calling her the property manager and so supposedly, supposedly,
- 10:34Speaker 1: I don't think this is true. Me and Stu do
- 10:36Speaker 1: not think this is true at all. The lady said
- 10:38Speaker 1: that her. So the property manager calls and she mess
- 10:41Speaker 1: me back and she's like, hey, if you see anything.
- 10:43Speaker 1: They said that the dog's gonna be leaving Tuesday because
- 10:46Speaker 1: her daughter is in the military and she's in town,
- 10:48Speaker 1: and that's why the dog's here. The dog has been
- 10:50Speaker 1: here for a month or more. At this point, things
- 10:55Speaker 1: aren't adding up. Not to mention me, I well, student,
- 10:58Speaker 1: but I looked up if she does live the daughter
- 11:00Speaker 1: is in the military in fact, and does live on
- 11:03Speaker 1: the base or something like that, she cannot have a
- 11:05Speaker 1: pit bull it's like they're like banned from like the base.
- 11:07Speaker 1: It's the same thing with the insurance. So she might
- 11:09Speaker 1: live off in her own apartment or something, but getting
- 11:12Speaker 1: a pit bull at an apartment is also difficult. Anyways,
- 11:14Speaker 1: stories aren't adding up, but we're supposed to let the
- 11:17Speaker 1: lady know if it's not gone after Tuesday, if the
- 11:20Speaker 1: dog is still around. But I'm relieved because now I
- 11:23Speaker 1: can stop stressing about the pit bull and go on
- 11:25Speaker 1: back to stressing about other things like rattlesnakes. Yes, this
- 11:29Speaker 1: has consumed I'm not even joking, guys, this has consumed
- 11:32Speaker 1: my life for a month. I have been so paranoid
- 11:34Speaker 1: about this dog. Is It is like if I should
- 11:38Speaker 1: post next time he's out and doing his thing, all, well, no,
- 11:41Speaker 1: I probably won't, but post a video. I'm not gonna
- 11:45Speaker 1: do that. We don't need to. We don't need to
- 11:48Speaker 1: like then defind us and then you know, murder us anything.
- 11:51Speaker 1: So anyways, the dog is just very aggressive. So that's
- 11:56Speaker 1: our saga. That's what we've been dealing with, and it's
- 11:57Speaker 1: finally coming to an end, and I'm very excited. I'm relieved.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Now we just got to do now the next thing
- 12:03Speaker 1: or The new thing I'm worrying about is this baby
- 12:05Speaker 1: crying on a plane. So our baby has turned into
- 12:09Speaker 1: a from a that's the that's the chair moving. That's
- 12:16Speaker 1: the chair moving. Our baby has turned into a docile, sweet,
- 12:20Speaker 1: happy baby to a a angry pterodactyl that squeals all
- 12:25Speaker 1: the time and has and you can't comfort her. So
- 12:28Speaker 1: it's just perfect timing for us to get on a
- 12:30Speaker 1: plane and fly for the first time with all so
- 12:34Speaker 1: we might go Yeah, we might go viral. We're not sure,
- 12:37Speaker 1: but hopefully not. Anyways, all right, well, if you were,
- 12:40Speaker 1: if you hung and hear through this, check out the
- 12:43Speaker 1: Patreon because we hopefully should have an episode coming up
- 12:46Speaker 1: on there that's Patreon only, and watch that documentary if
- 12:50Speaker 1: you can, the one on Peacock Face to face with
- 12:52Speaker 1: Scott Peterson. And then we have Facebook Instagram. I'll be
- 12:56Speaker 1: posting the book club pick this a week or whatever.
- 13:01Speaker 1: And then yeah, so check us out on Instagram Facebook.
- 13:06Speaker 1: I might have some cruise related stuff posting, some recipes,
- 13:10Speaker 1: some things, anything else.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Do no, I think that's played.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well, if you have been skipping forward,
- 13:18Speaker 1: it's your time. You need to stop, because we're about
- 13:20Speaker 1: to start the actual episode. So hell, sorry, I keep
- 13:25Speaker 1: touching things. Sorry, story, he's looking at me. We have
- 13:28Speaker 1: a new setup and it's not it's not the best.
- 13:31Speaker 1: We gotta figure it out, but Helen. Marlene Major Nay
- 13:36Speaker 1: Oaks was born December seventh, nineteen fifty four, in Kentucky
- 13:39Speaker 1: to Willie and Mildred Oaks. She wouldn't end up going
- 13:42Speaker 1: by her middle name Marlene now. Marlene met William Bill Major,
- 13:47Speaker 1: who went by Bill, and they married in nineteen seventy
- 13:50Speaker 1: one when Marlene was just a teenager. Now they settled
- 13:53Speaker 1: in Verona, Kentucky, which is in northern Kentucky. It was
- 13:57Speaker 1: a thriving small town that was in corporate but that
- 14:00Speaker 1: since has dissolved. I guess you can be incorporated, and
- 14:04Speaker 1: then if you don't have like the basic things, you
- 14:07Speaker 1: can become unincorporated.
- 14:09Speaker 2: I guess you suppose, and then your town just goes away.
- 14:13Speaker 1: Well because apparently, like I guess, they used to have
- 14:16Speaker 1: like a like a post office and all that kind
- 14:18Speaker 1: of stuff, and it just things went like I think
- 14:20Speaker 1: there was a lot of you know, between like the
- 14:23Speaker 1: Great Depression and all this stuff. This town just dissolved
- 14:26Speaker 1: into this a small community of about fifteen hundred people
- 14:29Speaker 1: as of twenty twenty. They would have their first child,
- 14:33Speaker 1: a boy named Donald who would go on to run
- 14:35Speaker 1: for a president of the United States, and then a
- 14:39Speaker 1: kidding and they had him soon after they were married.
- 14:42Speaker 1: And then they had a second child, a daughter named Laana,
- 14:45Speaker 1: and that her the name Lallana I thought was kind
- 14:48Speaker 1: of unique, but it was after Marlene's mother, that's what
- 14:52Speaker 1: her mom's name was. And the daughter was born about
- 14:55Speaker 1: four years later, so they're about four years apart, with
- 14:57Speaker 1: the boy being a little bit older. Range on the
- 15:00Speaker 1: surface seemed to be fine. However, there were problems I
- 15:03Speaker 1: mean on the surface, I mean a surface like at.
- 15:06Speaker 2: The beginnings together.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Yes, they were podcasting, they were having children, great, yeah.
- 15:13Speaker 2: But just below the surface.
- 15:15Speaker 1: But still the surface things were boiling a Cimmarin. Now,
- 15:19Speaker 1: at some point they met a man by the name
- 15:23Speaker 1: of Glenn Saint Hilaire. Now his truck had broken down
- 15:27Speaker 1: while he was driving from Texas to Ohio, and the
- 15:30Speaker 1: major stopped to help him, and then Glenn just decided,
- 15:33Speaker 1: okay for Verona, Kentucky residents. Now, it just it's just
- 15:38Speaker 1: like it's kind of how I feel about Midland. I
- 15:40Speaker 1: feel like people were driving it and all of a
- 15:41Speaker 1: sudden something just broke down. They're like, well, here we are.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Here, we are We're middling there now yep.
- 15:47Speaker 1: So Glenn moved on to it was like the property
- 15:51Speaker 1: or the majors are like adjacent to theirs in a
- 15:53Speaker 1: trailer and was working for Bill in some capacity. I
- 15:56Speaker 1: think Bill did, like worked on cars things like that. Now,
- 15:59Speaker 1: Marlin and Glenn became very close and eventually started having
- 16:03Speaker 1: an affair.
- 16:03Speaker 2: That's why you don't stop and help people that are
- 16:05Speaker 2: broke down. No, you don't.
- 16:06Speaker 1: We don't know, don't help anybody these days. It's a yes,
- 16:12Speaker 1: I'm down, I'm down in the dumps, okay, guys, because
- 16:14Speaker 1: we live in Midlands, so it's just it's not creepy.
- 16:19Speaker 2: Yes, because everybody seems to be racing down the road here.
- 16:23Speaker 1: Yes, this neighborhood is Yes, this neighborhood is shit, and
- 16:28Speaker 1: like I'm just going to tell you, like we don't.
- 16:29Speaker 1: It's not like we our house is like decent. It's
- 16:33Speaker 1: this was looked appears to be a decent neighborhood, but
- 16:36Speaker 1: it's not. It's just below the surface. When you're here,
- 16:40Speaker 1: you're like what the fuck is living around? Like what happened?
- 16:44Speaker 1: Nobody's nobody cares about anybody. Everyone's speeding around here, So
- 16:48Speaker 1: then you're like nervous about walking on the sidewalks and
- 16:51Speaker 1: stuff because there's people like drag racing down the street.
- 16:54Speaker 1: But I think that's kind of a Midland issue.
- 16:56Speaker 2: Though I don't think they're drag racing. They're just jumping
- 16:58Speaker 2: on the gas on the on the I.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Know I'm I'm I'm being dramatic, Stu.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Yes you are. I guess people don't know that about you.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Maybe I'm a bit I'm a bit dramatic. This is
- 17:14Speaker 1: the worst dog I've ever seen in my life that
- 17:17Speaker 1: lives next door. A spawn of Satan. That's what I
- 17:21Speaker 1: feel about him.
- 17:23Speaker 2: This neighborhood is just the worst.
- 17:24Speaker 1: It's just the worst. It's fine, it is though. It's
- 17:28Speaker 1: it's not that the neighborhood isn't nice, Like the elements
- 17:30Speaker 1: of the neighborhood are nice. It's the people. There's a
- 17:33Speaker 1: lot of people. The I guess this town is made
- 17:35Speaker 1: of a bunch of people that are have moved here
- 17:38Speaker 1: for for work and will be moving out just like
- 17:42Speaker 1: we will, and they just don't care. But I mean
- 17:44Speaker 1: we're like we try to just keep to ourselves and
- 17:46Speaker 1: leave people alone and mow our lawn and be drive
- 17:51Speaker 1: the speed limit. That's all I ask of you. Just yeah,
- 17:56Speaker 1: don't move your crazy aggressive pit bull next door to
- 17:59Speaker 1: me and have tried to rip down our fence. So anyway,
- 18:03Speaker 1: so where were we. So they were having They were
- 18:07Speaker 1: having an affair in a trailer. But this did not
- 18:10Speaker 1: seem to actually bother Bill. He actually encouraged the affair.
- 18:13Speaker 1: It was just like an odd relationship. And I don't
- 18:15Speaker 1: know if he encouraged it because he was into like
- 18:19Speaker 1: the whole setup, like it was like a fetish. I
- 18:21Speaker 1: don't know. So Bill, in the meantime, was also rumored
- 18:25Speaker 1: to be sleeping with another woman. So while they were
- 18:27Speaker 1: both having affairs, they did remain married. There was substance
- 18:31Speaker 1: abuse within the family as well. Marlene and Bill would
- 18:34Speaker 1: separate on occasion, but still they seem to always just
- 18:36Speaker 1: come back together. I think it's like just you know,
- 18:40Speaker 1: you're here, You've got these two children. It's a dying town,
- 18:45Speaker 1: Like how are you gonna get out? Like make it?
- 18:47Speaker 1: Like what else is there? You know? So that's where
- 18:50Speaker 1: they are.
- 18:51Speaker 2: Okay, go to Midland.
- 18:52Speaker 1: You can go to Midland. We're getting a costco.
- 18:56Speaker 2: We are next day.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully we're not here when it's actually time to
- 19:01Speaker 1: shop on it. In it. Oh, I thought it was
- 19:03Speaker 1: it next year or.
- 19:04Speaker 2: The year after that might have been breaking ground.
- 19:06Speaker 1: I think they're breaking ground between now and like next
- 19:09Speaker 1: year and then it'll be built in twenty twenty six
- 19:11Speaker 1: and fingers cross people weren't. We aren't here to actually
- 19:15Speaker 1: shop at that costco.
- 19:16Speaker 2: So yeah, you think.
- 19:19Speaker 1: I think I've been putting the fillers and it works too.
- 19:21Speaker 1: I've been every time I have my monthly meeting, I'm like, yeah,
- 19:25Speaker 1: whenever you have an opportunity meeting my monthly meeting? What
- 19:32Speaker 1: my monthly meeting? Oh like my time of the month,
- 19:36Speaker 1: what what are you? Twelve Jesus knew that. Anyways, I
- 19:41Speaker 1: have a monthly meet up with my boss and every
- 19:44Speaker 1: time I'm like, hey, whenever there's an opportunity, He's like, well,
- 19:47Speaker 1: where do you want to move him? Like anywhere?
- 19:50Speaker 2: Just not middling anywhere.
- 19:52Speaker 1: So I've gone it's the chairs too, all right.
- 19:58Speaker 2: On the nine of October eleventh, nineteen eighty, Glenn became
- 20:02Speaker 2: concerned about his lady. He was having an affair with
- 20:05Speaker 2: lady by the name of Marlene. He had not seen
- 20:08Speaker 2: her around the house, and at about three am that
- 20:11Speaker 2: morning he saw Bill. How do you see somebody at
- 20:13Speaker 2: three am, Stuart?
- 20:14Speaker 1: These people are on substances. They're drinking alcohol, they're doing drugs.
- 20:19Speaker 1: There are people of the Knights do they're meandering around?
- 20:24Speaker 2: I used to be a perree am.
- 20:25Speaker 1: I know, but you are a person in the night
- 20:27Speaker 1: inside your home.
- 20:28Speaker 2: No, I would close the bart to and wherever there was.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Okay, well then these are your people.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Then I go to the after party at your house. No,
- 20:37Speaker 2: well maybe at Miles or somebody else's house.
- 20:40Speaker 1: We lived such different lifestyles. I would rather keep I'd
- 20:44Speaker 1: rather go live with that pitbull than do that.
- 20:48Speaker 2: Try and cuddle up with that as.
- 20:49Speaker 1: Well, Yeah, i'd.
- 20:53Speaker 2: Yeah. So at three am he saw Bell asked about
- 20:56Speaker 2: Marie and the children. Bill told Glenn that he did
- 20:58Speaker 2: not know where Marlene was because she had left and
- 21:01Speaker 2: she took the children with her. On October fourteenth, Bill
- 21:04Speaker 2: finally called the police and told them that Marlene was missing.
- 21:08Speaker 2: The children were not missing, though, despite what Bill told Glenn.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Bill had actually dropped the children off at a neighbor's
- 21:14Speaker 2: home the night of October tenth, telling the neighbors that
- 21:18Speaker 2: Marlene had left. Bill told police that Marlene had just
- 21:22Speaker 2: up and left in the middle of the night, three days.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Prior took or Yeah, he didn't tell them obviously take
- 21:29Speaker 1: the children because the children were back. But yeah, he's
- 21:32Speaker 1: telling some different stories. I'll just tell you right now,
- 21:35Speaker 1: this is a this is a this is a frustrating
- 21:39Speaker 1: like how did this, how did this happen? And how
- 21:41Speaker 1: did this go this long without someone being held accountable.
- 21:47Speaker 2: Giving us insight into this episode?
- 21:50Speaker 1: Yes, Bill told that is what I'm doing, stud.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Why thank you. Bill told police that Marlene had just up.
- 21:56Speaker 2: I already read that he had been at the police
- 21:58Speaker 2: that they had a professional thought. It is professional. We
- 22:02Speaker 2: could edit it out, but we shan't, but we're not. Nope,
- 22:06Speaker 2: he admitted to police that they had argued and that
- 22:08Speaker 2: she had got upset and left because, like we said,
- 22:11Speaker 2: they get upset with you. Yeah, she leaves, comes back.
- 22:15Speaker 1: It's not unusual. Yeah, it's not. I think it was
- 22:18Speaker 1: more unusual that she just didn't go to Glenn's house
- 22:20Speaker 1: because they were.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Making the beast with two backs.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think it was he was. He was
- 22:27Speaker 1: seeing that It was odd that he didn't see her.
- 22:30Speaker 1: It was not odd that she might get away from Bill,
- 22:33Speaker 1: but for her to not see Glenn was a different story.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Not Glenn Glenn. Now, police speak to the children, who
- 22:40Speaker 2: are now eight and four. Neither recalls hearing anything or
- 22:43Speaker 2: seeing their mom leave. Police look around the house and
- 22:47Speaker 2: they find that Marlene's car is missing, but everything else
- 22:50Speaker 2: she owns is still there, her purse, jewelry, meds, everything
- 22:54Speaker 2: that you would think somebody who's leaving, even just for
- 22:56Speaker 2: a few days would take with them. So police find
- 22:59Speaker 2: us very odd and they look into what might have
- 23:02Speaker 2: happened to Marlene. Bill denied any involvement with the disappearance,
- 23:06Speaker 2: and he seemed forthcoming with all the information. He even
- 23:09Speaker 2: told police about the affair that Marlene was having with Glenn.
- 23:13Speaker 2: He did, however, deny that he was in any type
- 23:16Speaker 2: of extramarital.
- 23:18Speaker 1: Of well, of course he was like, oh, forthcoming with
- 23:21Speaker 1: her affair, But with his, he's like, oh, no, that's
- 23:24Speaker 1: not true. But hers, it's like, yeah, she was sleeping around. Yeah,
- 23:31Speaker 1: because the other makes him look suspicious. That one makes
- 23:34Speaker 1: her look like she would run off, you know, like
- 23:37Speaker 1: if she's sleeping with another guy. Maybe there's another one, Yeah.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Nother fellow that she took a cotton to.
- 23:43Speaker 1: This is the chair, everybody, you didn't know? This is
- 23:46Speaker 1: the chair.
- 23:47Speaker 2: How come it's never done that before. I don't know.
- 23:50Speaker 1: I guess I don't know.
- 23:52Speaker 2: He's home and there are no signs of struggle and
- 23:56Speaker 2: nothing that appeared out of sorts. They then speak to Glenn.
- 23:59Speaker 2: He didn't any involvement and he lets please search his trailer. Again,
- 24:04Speaker 2: no signs of struggle or anything abnormal. Police are wondering
- 24:08Speaker 2: if Marlene did actually just decide to up and lave
- 24:11Speaker 2: her life and start over. She was married young, and
- 24:14Speaker 2: she was not obviously in the best of marriages right now.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's possible she just was like one of
- 24:20Speaker 1: he I'm out. But a lot of people said she
- 24:23Speaker 1: wouldn't have left her children like that, though in that situation,
- 24:26Speaker 1: she might have hated Bill, but not Bill. Yeah. Bill
- 24:31Speaker 1: continued to say that Marlene just left on her own accord.
- 24:34Speaker 1: That's the story he's going with, abandoning her family, even
- 24:37Speaker 1: telling her their children that she was drug addicted, she's
- 24:40Speaker 1: a prostitute, she's an alcoholic. She didn't care about him,
- 24:43Speaker 1: and she just up and left. That's what he's telling
- 24:46Speaker 1: his kids, the poor eight and four year old.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Damn, yeah, right there, Belle.
- 24:53Speaker 1: He could have been like, just lied right now and
- 24:55Speaker 1: be like, yeah.
- 24:56Speaker 2: She joined the FBI, she's sick, she's at the hospital,
- 25:00Speaker 2: but we can't see her or something.
- 25:02Speaker 1: Yeah. Police, however, continued to look for Marlene. They did
- 25:06Speaker 1: searches in the area, and when nothing was found, they
- 25:08Speaker 1: sent her image in dental records nationwide in case she
- 25:11Speaker 1: turned up in another state, but nothing was found. Now,
- 25:14Speaker 1: this case quickly went cold. If Marlene was out there,
- 25:18Speaker 1: she did not want to be found, or they could
- 25:20Speaker 1: not find her. She was either really just up and
- 25:23Speaker 1: left and was like I'm out, or she's something bad
- 25:26Speaker 1: to see.
- 25:27Speaker 2: Yes.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Now, police learned that Bill began selling his stuff in
- 25:31Speaker 1: the days after Marlene's disappearance in preparation for moving up north.
- 25:36Speaker 1: This included two guns and a tractor to one of
- 25:39Speaker 1: his neighbors. Now, Bill and the children they moved to
- 25:42Speaker 1: Rhode Island with his parents shortly after Marlene's death, and
- 25:45Speaker 1: within one year he was remarried. Now, during that time,
- 25:49Speaker 1: Glenn told police that he was concerned something had happened
- 25:52Speaker 1: to Marlene because Glenn actually cared about Marlene. So he's
- 25:55Speaker 1: the one still pressing on, going, Uh, this isn't right,
- 25:58Speaker 1: guys like this, Why are we just believing this dumbass?
- 26:03Speaker 1: So police learned that prior to her disappearance, she had
- 26:06Speaker 1: given Glenn her diaries for safe keeping. Now you know
- 26:10Speaker 1: she trusted Glenn if she's given him her diaries because
- 26:13Speaker 1: she knows he's probably gonna read him.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Who keeps diaries?
- 26:17Speaker 1: Marlene?
- 26:18Speaker 2: I think, well, what happens when you die and somebody
- 26:20Speaker 2: reads all your stuff?
- 26:21Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be embarrassing, but you're gonna be dead.
- 26:23Speaker 1: So there's a lot of people keep diaries. I think.
- 26:28Speaker 1: I don't. I can't. I would I think it. I
- 26:31Speaker 1: think it's a cool ideal because you could like look
- 26:34Speaker 1: back what you were doing five years ago and how
- 26:36Speaker 1: you felt.
- 26:37Speaker 2: But the problem is is that face your photos on
- 26:41Speaker 2: your phone.
- 26:41Speaker 1: But the problem is is that it's the doing it daily,
- 26:46Speaker 1: the taking the time to do it. I don't know.
- 26:48Speaker 1: It just seems like I don't have I've tried to
- 26:51Speaker 1: do it before. It doesn't it's not I don't have
- 26:53Speaker 1: the I guess the disciplines do or I don't find
- 26:57Speaker 1: it cathartic enough to do it. So all right, so
- 27:02Speaker 1: they go and they collect those diaries and put them
- 27:05Speaker 1: into evidence. Glenn also told police that Bill would talk
- 27:08Speaker 1: about killing Marlene when they were separated at times like
- 27:11Speaker 1: so this is like, this is I'm telling you guys,
- 27:14Speaker 1: this is very frustrating because you're like, what the fuck
- 27:16Speaker 1: is happening, going as far as to say that he
- 27:19Speaker 1: would shoot her, then chop off her head and remove
- 27:21Speaker 1: the teeth so that no one would be able to
- 27:23Speaker 1: identify the body.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Now.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Police also learned that he made these types of statements
- 27:27Speaker 1: to other people in their circle of friends.
- 27:30Speaker 2: So it's it's not odd. It's commonplace.
- 27:35Speaker 1: What he means not odd. It's commonplace that Bill does this.
- 27:39Speaker 2: I'm just telling old Bill's being Bill.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's it's a frustrating situation for the family
- 27:48Speaker 1: and for Glenn, you know, the lover, the lover.
- 27:53Speaker 2: When reviewing the diaries, police find an entry dated a
- 27:56Speaker 2: few days prior to Marlene going missing on the town now,
- 28:01Speaker 2: and this is stating that she had walked in on
- 28:04Speaker 2: Bill sexually abusing Donald. With this information, the Kentucky authorities visited.
- 28:12Speaker 1: She also mentioned in the diary entry that and this
- 28:15Speaker 1: is not Stuw's fault because I didn't write it down.
- 28:17Speaker 1: But she also mentioned that she was going to kill
- 28:21Speaker 1: Bill if he ever touched her again, and she was
- 28:24Speaker 1: taking the children in basically, if he ever did anything again,
- 28:28Speaker 1: she was going to kill him. So that's what. She
- 28:31Speaker 1: was very upset about this.
- 28:32Speaker 2: Whole thing, as one would be.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Well, I'm just glad she was upset because some people
- 28:38Speaker 1: just seem to let these things know that this happened
- 28:40Speaker 1: and just let it go.
- 28:41Speaker 2: This is true too. So the police do visit Bill
- 28:44Speaker 2: and the children up in Rhode Island to interview them
- 28:47Speaker 2: about the sexual abuse charges. They were unsuccessful in getting
- 28:51Speaker 2: any information due to Donald being afraid and he didn't
- 28:55Speaker 2: want to tell police the truth. Yeah.
- 28:57Speaker 1: He's only eight or nine years old at this point,
- 29:00Speaker 1: and he's really afraid of his dad.
- 29:01Speaker 2: Yeah, so even Yeah, and he's even more afraid now
- 29:05Speaker 2: because he didn't tell the authorities anything. But Bill still
- 29:09Speaker 2: beat Donald severely afterwards to keep him in fear so
- 29:13Speaker 2: that he would never speak up. However, soon after Bill remarried,
- 29:17Speaker 2: Lallana and Donald confided in their new stepmother, telling her
- 29:21Speaker 2: that their dad had been sexually abusing them for years.
- 29:24Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd been. He moved on or was also started
- 29:28Speaker 1: with Donald, then moved on to Lallana.
- 29:31Speaker 2: Yeah. So the new step mom, she immediately believes the
- 29:33Speaker 2: children since Bill had been extremely violent with them. She
- 29:37Speaker 2: reported Bill to the police and he was arrested. He
- 29:41Speaker 2: was convicted of child abuse and sent us to fifteen
- 29:44Speaker 2: years in prison, but he would only serve about ten years.
- 29:47Speaker 2: He should have been shot a woodchipper. Yeah, you know
- 29:52Speaker 2: how I feel about pedophiles. That is going on the
- 29:54Speaker 2: woodchipper feet first.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Yeah, he should not have been allowed to get out
- 29:59Speaker 1: in about so.
- 30:01Speaker 2: Now ever, it should definitely got way more than fifteen years.
- 30:05Speaker 1: During the time of the arrest of Bill. Back in Kentucky,
- 30:08Speaker 1: on November twenty ninth, nineteen eighty one, a skull of
- 30:11Speaker 1: a female was found on a nearby farm belonging to
- 30:14Speaker 1: the Waller family. Now, due to the skull missing teeth
- 30:18Speaker 1: and the lack of DNA testing technology, they were unable
- 30:21Speaker 1: to positively identify the skull. They just knew it belonged
- 30:24Speaker 1: to a female. But that's the extent of it. It
- 30:28Speaker 1: was known that Bill would work on the Waller farm
- 30:31Speaker 1: on occasion all signs pointed to the skull belonging to
- 30:33Speaker 1: Marlene and Bill being the killer. However, they had no
- 30:36Speaker 1: way of proving any of this. Now, years would go
- 30:39Speaker 1: by without any real movement in the case, and Bill
- 30:43Speaker 1: would be sitting behind bars due to those child abuse convictions.
- 30:50Speaker 1: So I don't know if they were just like, oh,
- 30:51Speaker 1: he's behind bars right now.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Anyway, so we got time, we got time, we'll figure
- 30:55Speaker 2: it out. Yeah, but did they have time?
- 30:57Speaker 1: I don't know what the budget was in Verona on
- 30:59Speaker 1: the investigation. Who I guess it was the Sheriff's department investor.
- 31:02Speaker 2: Probably had to be in the county. In nineteen ninety six,
- 31:05Speaker 2: Bill was transported back to Kentucky where he was once
- 31:08Speaker 2: again detained for the same sexual allegations that had occurred
- 31:12Speaker 2: in Kentucky the years prior.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Yeah, from what I understood, it was a little bit confusing,
- 31:17Speaker 1: But after researching several sources to what I determined was
- 31:21Speaker 1: Bill did have a stroke around nineteen ninety five and
- 31:24Speaker 1: was wheelchair bound. Then he was transported back to Kentucky
- 31:28Speaker 1: because they were hoping to press charges for the the
- 31:32Speaker 1: crimes that he committed in Kentucky. However, due to the
- 31:35Speaker 1: statue of limitations, they were unable to do this, so
- 31:38Speaker 1: then therefore they just had to let him go. But
- 31:41Speaker 1: he wasn't a wheelchair at this point, so his ability
- 31:44Speaker 1: to hurt people was greatly diminished. Still should be behind barns,
- 31:49Speaker 1: but I'm just saying like it wasn't. He was not
- 31:52Speaker 1: as much of a thread anymore.
- 31:54Speaker 2: No, after Bill got out of this little pickle, he
- 31:58Speaker 2: then relocated to Massachifts. In two thousand and one, Sorry Massachusetts,
- 32:03Speaker 2: they police finally had a break in the case. Police
- 32:07Speaker 2: learned that back in nineteen ninety six, Bill had a
- 32:09Speaker 2: phone call with his father, James. During this conversation, Bill
- 32:14Speaker 2: had confessed to killing Marlene. James did not go to
- 32:17Speaker 2: the police with this information, and so it was five
- 32:20Speaker 2: years before they could even follow up that they that
- 32:23Speaker 2: he had after this confession. Once they learned this, they
- 32:26Speaker 2: contacted James. He agreed to try to get a son
- 32:29Speaker 2: to confess over the phone, with police listening in. During
- 32:33Speaker 2: the conversation, Bill said the following.
- 32:36Speaker 1: We just had to pause again, and you hear heard
- 32:38Speaker 1: at the end of that sentence, it's these these fuckers
- 32:41Speaker 1: rout here again in their goddamn truck.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Stewart with their modified mufflers thinking.
- 32:45Speaker 1: They're badass compensating for something. Ough.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think any room in this house was
- 32:50Speaker 2: recorded in unless it's our closet again.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Yeah, Like the room at the front, like the guest
- 32:56Speaker 1: bedroom at the front is terrible at nighttime. It's just
- 33:00Speaker 1: lights coming in all the time. You can hear cars.
- 33:02Speaker 1: I feel sorry for anybody that comes and stays at
- 33:04Speaker 1: our house and it's the sleeper, but it's the best
- 33:06Speaker 1: we could do.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not going to give them r room.
- 33:10Speaker 1: No. Yeah, our room has a dog barking next to it.
- 33:14Speaker 2: And there's nothing. Yeah.
- 33:16Speaker 1: You can hear stuff from our room too.
- 33:18Speaker 2: Though, Yeah, you could have heard that from our room probably. Yeah.
- 33:20Speaker 1: The problem is too this is like a cheaply built
- 33:24Speaker 1: home too. I mean it's nice on the surface, but
- 33:28Speaker 1: it's probably falling apart.
- 33:29Speaker 2: Just underneath the surface.
- 33:30Speaker 1: It's just underneath the surface.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Things are falling apart under the facade. It's getting back
- 33:37Speaker 2: to our story. During the conversation, Bell said the following,
- 33:42Speaker 2: why do I get the feeling that somebody is trying
- 33:44Speaker 2: to set me up? When asked if he could say
- 33:47Speaker 2: what happened, Bell replied, even if I could, I probably wouldn't.
- 33:52Speaker 2: When his father told him that his daughter just wanted
- 33:55Speaker 2: to know what had happened, Bell said to tell her
- 33:59Speaker 2: to ask Marlene's boyfriend in Indiana. I think they had
- 34:04Speaker 2: a talk with him. They might be surprised. When his
- 34:08Speaker 2: father reminded, Bill, you told me you killed her, he replied,
- 34:11Speaker 2: at the time, I was in jail and I was
- 34:13Speaker 2: pretty well upset. Although this was not true. He was
- 34:17Speaker 2: in between incarcerations at the time that he told his
- 34:20Speaker 2: father he murdered, Otherwise it would already been on the
- 34:22Speaker 2: jail house recording.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Yeah, he was. He just was like saying, I was
- 34:26Speaker 1: just upset in prison or whatever, and it's like and
- 34:28Speaker 1: then he kind of come up with this Indiana boyfriend,
- 34:30Speaker 1: which I don't think there's any truth to that whatsoever.
- 34:34Speaker 2: Plus Glenn was from Indiana, I don't know.
- 34:36Speaker 1: We don't know. Maybe no, well, Glenn came from Texas
- 34:39Speaker 1: and then broke down. He might have came from Indiana first,
- 34:42Speaker 1: We don't know. We do not know what Glenn was
- 34:46Speaker 1: up to prior to his time in Texas and then
- 34:50Speaker 1: breaking down in Kentucky. Now, with this new information, they
- 34:54Speaker 1: were able to charge James with the murder. Not James
- 34:59Speaker 1: charge Bill with the murder of Marlene in July of
- 35:04Speaker 1: two thousand and one. Finally, you know, this is twenty
- 35:07Speaker 1: one years later, and he obviously did it right off
- 35:09Speaker 1: the bat. He was extra extradited back to Kentucky. Now,
- 35:13Speaker 1: once in custody, Bill began asking questions about the investigation.
- 35:17Speaker 1: He continued to speak and incriminate himself in Marlene's murder. Now, finally,
- 35:22Speaker 1: on another occasion, he told detectives what actually happened to
- 35:25Speaker 1: Marlene on the night of her disappearance. He says that
- 35:28Speaker 1: they go into got into an argument while sitting in
- 35:31Speaker 1: her Ford pintos do.
- 35:34Speaker 2: She why are you laughing at four Penta? It used
- 35:37Speaker 2: to be the go to car.
- 35:38Speaker 1: All right?
- 35:38Speaker 2: So then exploded, yeah.
- 35:42Speaker 1: She then pulled a gun on him.
- 35:45Speaker 2: Let's say yeah.
- 35:48Speaker 1: I said, yeah, okay, I was thinking about that car
- 35:52Speaker 1: that there was a car that caught on fire down
- 35:54Speaker 1: down near by the the raising Knes and the and
- 35:58Speaker 1: the hotels. And then I was saying about that car
- 36:01Speaker 1: that caught on fire from that battery from that cocoa
- 36:03Speaker 1: melon book or whatever that someone left in their car
- 36:05Speaker 1: and it got too hot. Not here someplace els but.
- 36:08Speaker 2: It did happen North Carolina.
- 36:10Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, so where were we on? So okay,
- 36:14Speaker 1: so there's it in the Ford Pinto picture this. They're
- 36:18Speaker 1: in an argument out it's a brown one in the
- 36:21Speaker 1: Ford Pinto. She then pulls a gun on him and
- 36:24Speaker 1: he takes it from her. She began screaming, and he
- 36:27Speaker 1: said that he lost it and fired the gun until
- 36:30Speaker 1: it was empty. When he realized he had killed her,
- 36:33Speaker 1: he left her body in the pinto, the Ford Pinto
- 36:36Speaker 1: and took the children to the neighbors for the night.
- 36:37Speaker 1: So all this is matching up with what happened originally
- 36:41Speaker 1: what he said whenever he said he took the kids
- 36:43Speaker 1: and stuff. He then took Marlene's Pinto to the Waller farm,
- 36:47Speaker 1: where he dumped her body in a sinkhole, covered it
- 36:50Speaker 1: in dirt and a piece of rolled fencing, and then
- 36:54Speaker 1: tossed the murder weapon into a nearby pond. He dumped
- 36:58Speaker 1: her body, portioned her head or whatever. He actually did,
- 37:01Speaker 1: rip off the rip out the teeth, He did the
- 37:04Speaker 1: whole thing that he's threatened he was gonna do, telling everybody.
- 37:07Speaker 1: He actually took her teeth out so they couldn't identify her.
- 37:11Speaker 1: He then disposed of her car in the Ohio River
- 37:13Speaker 1: near a ferry. Now at this point he even drew
- 37:16Speaker 1: police a map to help them search for her body.
- 37:18Speaker 1: A search was performed for Marline's remains, the car and
- 37:21Speaker 1: the gun, but only that skull was recovered back from
- 37:25Speaker 1: nineteen eighty one. So what happened was that to get
- 37:29Speaker 1: the skull to match it to Marlene, they needed that
- 37:33Speaker 1: mitochondrial DNA I believe, and so they needed twenty thousand
- 37:37Speaker 1: dollars a test. So the daughter had really been pushing
- 37:39Speaker 1: this investigation. She's like, Lallana is like, I know, my
- 37:42Speaker 1: mom didn't just abandon it's obviously my dad killed my mom.
- 37:46Speaker 1: So she's pushing for this. She was doing like fundraisers
- 37:49Speaker 1: to get this testing because this is a small they
- 37:51Speaker 1: don't have the money to be testing this skull. And
- 37:53Speaker 1: finally she pushed and pushed and pushed, and she was
- 37:55Speaker 1: doing a fundraiser and finally the Kentucky was like, Okay,
- 37:57Speaker 1: we'll pay for it. So then they paid for the
- 37:59Speaker 1: testing and they were able to confirm that skull from
- 38:01Speaker 1: nineteen eighty one was in fact Marlene. So they got
- 38:04Speaker 1: all the pieces. Now they have the body they have
- 38:06Speaker 1: the confession, they have all the circumstantial evidence everything. So
- 38:13Speaker 1: whenever it was time for the trials due or time
- 38:18Speaker 1: for him to be sentenced, sentenced, so he could have
- 38:23Speaker 1: got the death penalty or he could have gotten the
- 38:27Speaker 1: life in prison. So anyway, so when he was sentenced,
- 38:29Speaker 1: they did talk to James the father about how he
- 38:33Speaker 1: felt about testifying against his son. Yeah, and that the
- 38:35Speaker 1: death penalty was an option, and he said that's all right.
- 38:40Speaker 1: He said he was in He lived in Nova Scotia,
- 38:42Speaker 1: which we've been in Nova Scotia, haven't we still.
- 38:44Speaker 2: Yeah, we saw Jack Dawson's graves.
- 38:47Speaker 1: Yeah, we went to Nova Scotia and we saw the
- 38:49Speaker 1: Titanic because you know, the a lot of the bodies.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Ended up over there and fifteen bodies there.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah, and then we also they had that that great
- 38:58Speaker 1: explosion that had a lot of bodies. And then we
- 39:02Speaker 1: learned that that in h is it Boston or not Boston,
- 39:09Speaker 1: somewhere on the East coast they sent a bunch of
- 39:12Speaker 1: help and maybe it was Massachusetts. They it's all come
- 39:15Speaker 1: in full circles too, it's all connected. So they sent
- 39:19Speaker 1: a bunch of help over after that explosion in uh
- 39:23Speaker 1: in in in Halifax, and so now every year the
- 39:27Speaker 1: Nova Scotia send one of their nice Christmas trees to
- 39:31Speaker 1: ever since then, Yeah, I think it's Boston. Now I'm
- 39:35Speaker 1: gonna have to look it up, but it's over there somewhere.
- 39:37Speaker 1: It's one of those East Coast places. Not Jersey though, yeah,
- 39:42Speaker 1: not Jersey. They would definitely never send any help. So
- 39:47Speaker 1: so James, the father of Bill, he's saying, so he's
- 39:51Speaker 1: being interviewed, and he said, all pull the fucking switch
- 39:54Speaker 1: if they need me to. He's no good, he's no
- 39:57Speaker 1: asset to anyone. So the dad was like finally came around,
- 40:01Speaker 1: was like, I mean, he could have he could have
- 40:04Speaker 1: mentioned that he confessed to it back in nineteenninety six,
- 40:06Speaker 1: but I guess five years later find you You're finally like, okay,
- 40:09Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell him my son. He's a piece of shit. Anyways.
- 40:12Speaker 1: So he did get sentenced to life in prison. But
- 40:16Speaker 1: he's like he looks as he looks like a person
- 40:19Speaker 1: who was like rotten on the core, and so it
- 40:21Speaker 1: just like manifested on the outside of his body. He's
- 40:25Speaker 1: in like a wheelchair. He's all like he looked like
- 40:28Speaker 1: that guy from that took that JC doguard that. You
- 40:31Speaker 1: know how gross he was looking, Stu.
- 40:36Speaker 2: No, I have not. I don't recall seeing the fellow
- 40:40Speaker 2: that did that.
- 40:40Speaker 1: Okay, well everybody else imagine that guy. All right, well
- 40:45Speaker 1: that's our case, Stu. Do you have a yell? Need cheese?
- 40:49Speaker 2: I do have a yell?
- 40:50Speaker 1: He does, actually doesn't. He's just saying that right now.
- 40:53Speaker 2: I got one somewhere.
- 40:54Speaker 1: He's got one somewhere. He's gonna pull it out of
- 40:56Speaker 1: his ass. Just like everything else.
- 40:58Speaker 2: I send text to my south whenever I see these stories. Yeah,
- 41:01Speaker 2: I might have a text for myself somewhere.
- 41:03Speaker 1: All right, well let's go ahead and do it.
- 41:05Speaker 2: Might my little honey hole.
- 41:07Speaker 1: Ew that's gross sounding. What that's gross? Anyways? Uh uh
- 41:16Speaker 1: you know what? I you know what that reminded me of. Though,
- 41:18Speaker 1: I've got this new cucumber. Uh, I've got this new cucumber,
- 41:25Speaker 1: and I knew it was kind of news fielding, so
- 41:30Speaker 1: I had I had seed where so I'm trying this out.
- 41:32Speaker 1: So what you do is you cut the end of
- 41:34Speaker 1: a cucumber to expose like the center, you know, and
- 41:38Speaker 1: then you put the cucumber in the freezer in a
- 41:40Speaker 1: zip hop bag. And you know, like they say, like
- 41:43Speaker 1: those cold presses or like the rolling the cold things
- 41:46Speaker 1: Stew's making noise over there, the cold things on your
- 41:49Speaker 1: face supposed to help well, like all the stuff that's
- 41:51Speaker 1: in a cucumber is supposed to help your face too.
- 41:52Speaker 1: So what you do is you take the cucumber out
- 41:54Speaker 1: in the bag and you rub it all over your face.
- 42:00Speaker 1: So I knew Stu was gonna say something like he
- 42:03Speaker 1: could couldn't hold it together watching me rub the cue.
- 42:08Speaker 2: So what you did is you walked up to find
- 42:10Speaker 2: me while you're doing it, just to see my reaction, I.
- 42:13Speaker 1: Guess, just to put you over the edge with it. Yeah,
- 42:17Speaker 1: so I'm just rubbing it all.
- 42:18Speaker 2: Over, trying to have a conversation with me like nothing
- 42:22Speaker 2: else is going on.
- 42:25Speaker 1: I did just on purpose anyways, what okay, So let's

- 42:38Speaker 1: need Jesus ready, He claims he did, but he did
- 42:41Speaker 1: not because obviously we would have recorded but then but
- 42:44Speaker 1: we didn't.

- 43:25Speaker 1: Cheated though, because we've already been through this, yes.
- 43:28Speaker 2: Four times, six days ago. Beaumont Enterprise from September third,
- 43:33Speaker 2: twenty twenty four by Robin Bradshaw Wells Fargo Bank is
- 43:38Speaker 2: no stranger to discreditable behavior.
- 43:41Speaker 1: Is I can attest to that.
- 43:43Speaker 2: That's a word discreditable.
- 43:44Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 43:45Speaker 2: I'm sure maybe autocorrect.
- 43:48Speaker 1: I know, Wills Fargo is terrible.
- 43:50Speaker 2: That's what I heard.
- 43:51Speaker 1: The Beaumont time Steward, it could be just the.
- 43:54Speaker 2: Wrong work and the latest scandal is out of an
- 43:57Speaker 2: office in Arizona where an employee was reportedly dead at
- 44:01Speaker 2: her desk for four days unnoticed. At say seven am
- 44:05Speaker 2: on August sixteenth, Denise Prudome, age sixty, entered the Wells
- 44:10Speaker 2: Fargo building for work, and on August twentieth, the building
- 44:13Speaker 2: security called authorities after finding an unresponsive employee. Prudome was
- 44:19Speaker 2: pronounced dead when they arrived at the building. A Wells
- 44:24Speaker 2: Fargo employee told twelve News CBS Arizona that a colleague
- 44:27Speaker 2: actually found Prudom dead at her desk in a cubicle
- 44:31Speaker 2: while walking around the building, while also stating her cubicle
- 44:35Speaker 2: was away from the central aisle of cubicles on the
- 44:38Speaker 2: third floor.
- 44:39Speaker 1: When you were in a cubicle and you couldn't even
- 44:40Speaker 1: be found, I mean, I'm in a cubicle at work
- 44:42Speaker 1: and they would definitely notice if I was dead. But
- 44:44Speaker 1: I'm popular at work for some reason. I'm not really
- 44:46Speaker 1: sure what.
- 44:47Speaker 2: Yeah, we all know why.
- 44:48Speaker 1: People come and you don't people come in I like
- 44:52Speaker 1: I texted to anyways, we won't get into in case
- 44:55Speaker 1: what if someone listens that I work with. I would
- 44:57Speaker 1: hope not anyways, always coming to visit me, and I'm
- 45:01Speaker 1: just like, I don't know how it happened. They would
- 45:06Speaker 1: definitely notice if I was.
- 45:07Speaker 2: Dead, would they? Yes, somebody needs to do that job.
- 45:11Speaker 1: Like you're kidding me. Right now, the cat's gonna cry
- 45:13Speaker 1: right now. We've finally got all three children to be quiet,
- 45:15Speaker 1: and the cat's gonna be alogy.
- 45:17Speaker 2: Of course he is. Maybe we shouldn't have saved him
- 45:19Speaker 2: after all, Stuart, What several people smelled a foul odor
- 45:25Speaker 2: but passed it off as faulty plumbing. That also sounds
- 45:27Speaker 2: like people around your cubicle, the employee stated in the What.
- 45:34Speaker 2: The building has twenty four to seven security, and someone
- 45:37Speaker 2: should have found Prudom sooner. Employees reported Wells Fargo was
- 45:41Speaker 2: not forthcoming with information to staff. We are deeply saddened
- 45:46Speaker 2: by the loss of our colleague Denise Prudome A. Wells
- 45:49Speaker 2: Fargo Sparks's Reuben Pulito told CNN they weren't that sad.
- 45:55Speaker 1: They didn't know she was even around. Like even if
- 45:58Speaker 1: I if I was in a cubical but the coworkers
- 46:01Speaker 1: would notice if I didn't show up for four days
- 46:03Speaker 1: and it wasn't on my calendar to like not be there.
- 46:07Speaker 1: What did Denise do?
- 46:09Speaker 2: Is?
- 46:09Speaker 1: What I want to know is that you go whole
- 46:11Speaker 1: days with no produced.
- 46:12Speaker 2: Work and you're what about her family? I guess she
- 46:15Speaker 2: had no family whatsoever.
- 46:18Speaker 1: Her cat probably missed her.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Why didn't you die at home? I could add some
- 46:23Speaker 2: the that's terrible?
- 46:25Speaker 1: You Sai's terrible. A woman did die, Okay.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones, and
- 46:31Speaker 2: we are in contact. I don't know to ensure they
- 46:35Speaker 2: are well supported during this difficult time.
- 46:38Speaker 1: I doubt that Wells Fargo is a piece of shit.
- 46:40Speaker 2: They said they're reviewing its internal procedures regarding their employees
- 46:44Speaker 2: safety and wellness following Prudom's death. Pulito said in the
- 46:48Speaker 2: report that counselors were made available to affected employees. Evidently
- 46:53Speaker 2: no one cared about her. No one needs therapy because
- 46:56Speaker 2: no one knowed she was missing.
- 46:57Speaker 1: Noon even walked over there and said.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Hi, hey Denise, how was your weekend? Hey Denise, would
- 47:02Speaker 2: you do last? Yeah?
- 47:03Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody would care enough to make that stupid office
- 47:07Speaker 1: small talk that you got to make.
- 47:10Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing I can hope after because
- 47:11Speaker 2: we're gonna get in trouble by some people that Denise
- 47:14Speaker 2: was a horrible person that ate other people, that ate
- 47:18Speaker 2: tuna fish and heated up seafood in the microwave at work,
- 47:21Speaker 2: and stole other people's lunch because and did.
- 47:23Speaker 1: And like took credit for everybody else's work that they
- 47:25Speaker 1: did well.
- 47:26Speaker 2: Evidently not because nobody knows she was missing, that is,
- 47:31Speaker 2: I don't. That'd probably be me. I don't know if
- 47:33Speaker 2: anybody noticed I was missing, if I wasn't married to you,
- 47:36Speaker 2: and you'd be like, where is your father to watch you?
- 47:40Speaker 1: What?
- 47:41Speaker 2: The only reason you notice I'm missing is because you
- 47:43Speaker 2: need somebody to come take her to his kids so
- 47:44Speaker 2: you could take a break.
- 47:45Speaker 1: Yeah, this is true.
- 47:46Speaker 2: Other than that, I don't know.
- 47:48Speaker 1: I would say that the pot that people listening to
- 47:50Speaker 1: podcasts be like, oh what happened to them? They probably
- 47:54Speaker 1: have another kid they just ghosted.
- 47:56Speaker 2: Yes, man, it could be dead in our house for
- 47:58Speaker 2: six months and nobody know.
- 48:00Speaker 1: Alright, we're gonna quit now while we're ahead. So when
- 48:02Speaker 1: the baby's trying to eat my headphones? All right? Well,
- 48:06Speaker 1: anything else i'd like to say about the dog I
- 48:09Speaker 1: would have I had to cough. I don't have time
- 48:13Speaker 1: to edit that out. Though if the dog had not
- 48:16Speaker 1: been aggressive, I would have never called or anything. But one,
- 48:19Speaker 1: the dog was very aggressive, and I was afraid he
- 48:22Speaker 1: was going to attack somebody, our children or somebody's dog
- 48:26Speaker 1: out front, because he had already broken one of the
- 48:28Speaker 1: pieces of fence in the front and was like sticking
- 48:30Speaker 1: his head all the way out. And then two, they
- 48:33Speaker 1: were not supposed to have a dog in the first place.
- 48:36Speaker 1: They were disrespecting the owners of the home and lied
- 48:38Speaker 1: on their application. Anyways, anyways, just had to summarize that
- 48:43Speaker 1: for everybody's like, oh my god, I can't believe he
- 48:45Speaker 1: called about the dog. You're such a dog hater. We
- 48:48Speaker 1: love dogs, we're dog people. I was saving the other
- 48:50Speaker 1: dogs in the neighborhood dogs because that dog was gonna
- 48:53Speaker 1: get out and attack somebody.
- 48:56Speaker 2: What did you do with her?
- 48:57Speaker 1: Thoughts? All right? Anyways, all right, well I think that's it.
- 49:01Speaker 2: That is it?
- 49:02Speaker 1: All right?
- 49:03Speaker 2: Bye?
- 49:03Speaker 1: Everyone, say bye ste By.
- 49:05Speaker 2: Still don't you know it's bad luck to be superstitious, Bud.
- 49:14Speaker 1: Nothing else is working, and my hand is really hurting
- 49:21Speaker 1: at a sicko. It's worry bound. I can
