Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So if you ever feel I need to be a
- 0:02Speaker 1: donkey man, hit it with the devo the breakfast club, bitch.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Please don't keep the day today well.
- 0:08Speaker 3: And sharing donkey of Today for Friday, August thirtieth goes
- 0:12Speaker 3: to the Montgomery County Court System in Pennsylvania, Ladies in Ghettleman.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Today's donkey is a prime example of why, regardless of
- 0:18Speaker 3: what the situation is, you always have to hear both sides,
- 0:22Speaker 3: because if I told you right now, Christopher Casey, fifty
- 0:25Speaker 3: six years old of Upper Moreland, was sentenced last week
- 0:28Speaker 3: in Montgomery Court to eleven and a half to twenty
- 0:31Speaker 3: three months in the county jail, followed by three years
- 0:35Speaker 3: of probation after pleading guilty to a charge of manslaughter.
- 0:38Speaker 3: What would you think if I told you he was
- 0:40Speaker 3: also charged for possession of an instrument of crime? What
- 0:43Speaker 3: would you believe? What do you think inving ll Cool
- 0:46Speaker 3: Bay when I say this man was charged and sent
- 0:48Speaker 3: to prison for manslaughter?
- 0:50Speaker 1: What goes to your mind? And that's where it should be. Yeah,
- 0:52Speaker 1: you kill somebody, okay, But that's why you always have
- 0:55Speaker 1: to hear both sides. See.
- 0:57Speaker 3: Casey was originally charged with third degree murder in the
- 0:59Speaker 3: January death of a sixty two year old man named
- 1:01Speaker 3: Robert Wallace. Robert lived next door in a duplex. They
- 1:06Speaker 3: shared a common wall. Well, apparently Christopher Casey was a snorer.
- 1:10Speaker 3: Not just any type of snorer. Apparently the type of
- 1:12Speaker 3: snorer whose snores could leave his mouth, travel through.
- 1:16Speaker 1: The ralls, travel through the walls, and then Robert Wallace's ears.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Okay, we all know the person who snores falls asleep
- 1:22Speaker 3: first and keeps everybody else up. Well, one day, Robert
- 1:26Speaker 3: had had enough and he decided that he needed to
- 1:28Speaker 3: do something about Christopher casey snoring. What happened next is
- 1:32Speaker 3: tragic and is yet another example of why humans need
- 1:34Speaker 3: better conflict resolution skills. Let's go to six ABC News
- 1:37Speaker 3: Philly for the report Police.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Right now to a deadly stabbing and Halfborough, Montgomery County.
- 1:41Speaker 2: Fifty six year old Christopher Casey will spend up to
- 1:44Speaker 2: twenty three months behind bars for a death that stemmed
- 1:47Speaker 2: from an argument over snoring. He pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter.
- 1:52Speaker 2: Prosecutors said Casey stab Robert Wallace, who'd pushed in a
- 1:55Speaker 2: window and threatened to kill Casey over his loud snoring.
- 1:58Speaker 2: The two men lived next door to each other in
- 2:00Speaker 2: the duplex.
- 2:02Speaker 1: This is why you always have to hear both sides.
- 2:04Speaker 3: First of all, if anyone has ever told you that
- 2:06Speaker 3: you snore, just know that person is very carefully weighed
- 2:08Speaker 3: the pros and cons of killing you.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Okay, they have played it out in their head over
- 2:12Speaker 1: and over. They thought about it.
- 2:13Speaker 3: If I let this person live, I will never get
- 2:15Speaker 3: a good night's sleep. But if I kill him, I'll
- 2:17Speaker 3: sleep well, just in a prison cell. So there's a
- 2:20Speaker 3: part of me that understands Robert's frustration. He did what
- 2:22Speaker 3: so many people have thought about, you know, doing all right,
- 2:25Speaker 3: meaning he wanted a good night's sleep, and he knows
- 2:27Speaker 3: he could he would never get one with Christopher's freight
- 2:29Speaker 3: train snoring in the next apartment. I'm just assuming it
- 2:32Speaker 3: was freight train snoring because this man was in a
- 2:33Speaker 3: whole of the whole of the apartment. Okay, they weren't roommates,
- 2:36Speaker 3: they weren't bunk bed buddies. This man was in a
- 2:38Speaker 3: whole other apartment he could have and he could hear
- 2:41Speaker 3: him through the walls. So this wasn't no mild snoring,
- 2:43Speaker 3: no moderate snoring. This was freight train snoring that Robert
- 2:47Speaker 3: could hear through the walls. Okay, these walls must have
- 2:49Speaker 3: been made out of the same material that Kawhi len
- 2:51Speaker 3: his knees are made out of them.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Because for Robert to be able to.
- 2:54Speaker 3: Hear the snoring and then try to push in Christopher's
- 2:56Speaker 3: first floor window and threaten to kill him, there's one question.
- 3:01Speaker 3: What else was Christopher supposed to do. If somebody is
- 3:04Speaker 3: pushing in your window and threatening to kill you, Am
- 3:08Speaker 3: I supposed to wait until they get in my residence
- 3:10Speaker 3: and wait and see if they really want to kill me. No,
- 3:12Speaker 3: I have to defend myself. I have to attempt to
- 3:15Speaker 3: neutralize the threat.
- 3:16Speaker 1: I'm shot. Christopher didn't have a gun. Okay.
- 3:18Speaker 3: They found Robert fifty feet away from the residents after
- 3:20Speaker 3: suffering uh the stab wound, So clearly he stuck them
- 3:23Speaker 3: someplace fatal. But if you had a gun, they would
- 3:25Speaker 3: have found him dead or right there at the house.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Okay.
- 3:27Speaker 3: I think it's terrible that a life was lost. But
- 3:29Speaker 3: if you attempt to push in someone's window, you're breaking
- 3:32Speaker 3: into someone's house and you're threatening to kill him, you're
- 3:35Speaker 3: kind of asking for it. Now back to the Montgomery
- 3:38Speaker 3: County court system. I don't believe Christophus should have been
- 3:41Speaker 3: found guilty of anything. Was it because he stabbed him
- 3:43Speaker 3: several times? That has to be the reason, because this
- 3:46Speaker 3: man should not be facing any charges. I did some research,
- 3:48Speaker 3: and by research I mean googled, and Pennsylvania has a
- 3:51Speaker 3: stand in your ground law. Deadly force is reasonable in
- 3:54Speaker 3: specific cases if someone is unawfully entering your home, work,
- 3:58Speaker 3: our vehicle. If someone has und lawfully entered your home, work,
- 4:02Speaker 3: or occupied vehicle and it's trying to unlawfully remove you,
- 4:05Speaker 3: Now it does say the force you must the force
- 4:08Speaker 3: you use must be equal to the force you are
- 4:11Speaker 3: threatened with. Whether or not you provoked the circumstances is
- 4:14Speaker 3: decided on a case by case basis.
- 4:16Speaker 1: I don't think snoring is provoking someone to try.
- 4:18Speaker 3: To hurt you, Okay, all right, And it says it
- 4:20Speaker 3: has to be viewed upon the totality of circumstances. For example,
- 4:23Speaker 3: courts have said that the mere use of insulting words
- 4:26Speaker 3: which leads to a fight does not rise to the
- 4:28Speaker 3: level of provoke. But once again, if someone is breaking
- 4:31Speaker 3: into your house right unprovoked and threatening to kill you,
- 4:36Speaker 3: I personally have no problem with a person responding.
- 4:39Speaker 1: The way Robert Wallace did.
- 4:40Speaker 3: Now, Lauren Envy, after hearing both sides, what do you think,
- 4:43Speaker 3: free Christopher or not?
- 4:46Speaker 4: Yeah, you ain't gonna break into my house and me.
- 4:48Speaker 1: You sit there and look at you. Oh okay, yeah,
- 4:51Speaker 1: oh all right?
- 4:52Speaker 3: Just making sure, okay, please give the Montgomery County Court
- 4:56Speaker 3: system in Pennsylvania the biggest he hull.
- 5:01Speaker 4: You're knocking my window.
- 5:03Speaker 1: I don't know what you what you're about. That that's
- 5:05Speaker 1: why you always got to hear both sides, right, That's
- 5:07Speaker 1: all I'm saying. You always got to hear both sides.
- 5:11Speaker 1: I was fair. I was scared for my life. What
- 5:14Speaker 1: was I supposed to do? Yes?
- 5:16Speaker 3: What do you expect though, when you do something like that,
- 5:18Speaker 3: like you should expect something coming here?
- 5:20Speaker 1: Right? God have no idea what he was thinking? Really?
- 5:24Speaker 4: All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Now, can we switch to Lauren's toxicity. Yes, yesterday Laurens
- 5:31Speaker 3: was her head drunk, Lauren Larossa. Okay, not this whole
- 5:35Speaker 3: Lauren London Lorossa's personality. You'll be trying to have people
- 5:38Speaker 3: in Delaware call you knw and all of that Lauren
- 5:41Speaker 3: got drunk the other night because she was.
- 5:42Speaker 1: At Sim's party right unplugged. She came in here drunk.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Can I say your name? Oh? Okay? I said no.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Somebody that works his.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Friend all right, was trying to hoiler at Lauren. Correct okay,
- 5:55Speaker 3: and Lauren gasped it up. She made it cheap. She

- 6:07Speaker 1: Them for texting to keep my phone getting Tooken.
- 6:10Speaker 3: Texted her saying good morning and all kinds of stuff.
- 6:12Speaker 3: Lo and behold, Lauren lied on that man.
- 6:14Speaker 4: He lied on that man.
- 6:15Speaker 1: First of all, when we come back, we're gonna talk
- 6:17Speaker 1: about it.
- 6:18Speaker 4: So the question is eight hundred five eight five one
- 6:21Speaker 4: oh five one? Did you ever dog out a good man?
