- 3:18Speaker 1: didn't know, California is home to the world's oldest living trees. Yep,
- 3:25Speaker 1: let's not tell my grandchildren that because they say I'm
- 3:28Speaker 1: older than dirt. I don't want them to say I'm
- 3:30Speaker 1: older than trees. Okay. Now, the ancient bristol cone pines
- 3:35Speaker 1: found in the White Mountains have stood for nearly five
- 3:39Speaker 1: thousand years. Oh my, Okay. That also makes them some
- 3:45Speaker 1: of the oldest known living organisms on Earth. Okay. Now,
- 3:51Speaker 1: we all know California is often associated with Hollywood Beaches,
- 3:56Speaker 1: the blonde hair Beach, babes, okay, and these amazing trees.
- 4:02Speaker 1: But we also need to know that according to the
- 4:06Speaker 1: National Missing and Unidentified Person System, California consistently has one
- 4:13Speaker 1: of the highest numbers of active missing person cases in
- 4:18Speaker 1: the nation. That means making the public aware of all
- 4:24Speaker 1: of these stories is a critical part of bringing people
- 4:28Speaker 1: home and letting these family members know that their loved
- 4:33Speaker 1: ones are not forgotten. Okay. Now, Wajadi abdel Salam was
- 4:41Speaker 1: thirty five years old when he was last seen on
- 4:43Speaker 1: October twenty six, twenty twenty five, after disappearing from Los Angeles, California.
- 4:50Speaker 1: He is described as a Caucasian male who stands about
- 4:53Speaker 1: five foot nine weighs one hundred and fifty to one
- 4:56Speaker 1: hundred and seventy pound pounds now. He has brown eyes
- 5:00Speaker 1: and brown hair with some amazing blonde highlights. At the
- 5:04Speaker 1: time of his disappearance now, according to the available information,
- 5:10Speaker 1: watched was last seen near First Street in North Mission
- 5:14Speaker 1: Road in Los Angeles. Now. He had also previously been
- 5:18Speaker 1: in the Holandbach area of the city. But guys, after
- 5:22Speaker 1: his disappearance, he stopped communicating with this family who lived
- 5:26Speaker 1: in Illinois, raising concerns for his well beings. Now, a
- 5:32Speaker 1: missing person report was officially filed on November twenty fifth,
- 5:37Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, at the Bridgeport, Illinois Police Department. They
- 5:42Speaker 1: are leading this investigation into his disappearance. Guys, we're going
- 5:48Speaker 1: to be coming up on a year here in a
- 5:50Speaker 1: couple of months, and his loved ones are still searching
- 5:53Speaker 1: for answers and they desperately want answers. So please, if
- 5:58Speaker 1: you have any information about his whereabouts, and remember it
- 6:04Speaker 1: could be just rumors. You think you saw him, that's fine, whatever, Okay,
- 6:10Speaker 1: please contact the Bridgeport Police Department at seven oh eight
- 6:14Speaker 1: four five eight twenty one thirty one. Also, go to
- 6:19Speaker 1: our Midday Missing Facebook page or any of the tiery
- 6:23Speaker 1: true crime social media pages. You will find his missing
- 6:27Speaker 1: person poster. I'm going to ask that you please go
- 6:31Speaker 1: and share that. And guys, if any of his family
- 6:35Speaker 1: members seize this, please reach out to me. I would
- 6:39Speaker 1: like more information. Both of our cases today do not
- 6:43Speaker 1: have a lot of information, and that makes me sad
- 6:46Speaker 1: and makes my heart hurt. So if you are a
- 6:49Speaker 1: family member, please reach out to me. I will be
- 6:53Speaker 1: happy to come back and do another episode. Okay, and
- 6:58Speaker 1: don't forget if you you you know, have a loved

- 7:04Speaker 1: there in your community and you would like us to
- 7:08Speaker 1: tell their story. Please all you need to do is
- 7:11Speaker 1: email me Terry at tcwtmedia dot com, or you can
- 7:17Speaker 1: reach out to me through any of our social media platforms.
- 7:21Speaker 1: Actually had a couple of people reach out over the
- 7:23Speaker 1: weekend and excited because we've got two family members that
- 7:28Speaker 1: will be coming on for interviews within the next month
- 7:32Speaker 1: or so. So please, if you do know of anyone
- 7:35Speaker 1: or you have a loved one, please reach out now.
- 7:40Speaker 1: I have to tell you this next case makes me
- 7:46Speaker 1: extra sad and you'll find out why. Lulu Lazar was
- 7:54Speaker 1: eighty two years old when he was last seen on
- 7:58Speaker 1: September twenty second, twenty fifth teen, after disappearing from the
- 8:02Speaker 1: West Hollywood area of Los Angeles, California. Guys, eighty two
- 8:07Speaker 1: years old and he's missing, breaks my heart, Okay. He
- 8:13Speaker 1: is an Eastern European Caucasian male, has a thin build.
- 8:17Speaker 1: He's about five foot seven and weighs about one hundred
- 8:20Speaker 1: and ten pounds. Now he does have brown eyes and
- 8:24Speaker 1: white hair. Guys, look at him. He looks a distinguished
- 8:29Speaker 1: older gentleman, and I love it. On the day he disappeared,
- 8:34Speaker 1: Lulu left his residence on foot without telling anyone where
- 8:38Speaker 1: he was going. He was last seen wearing a white tshirt,
- 8:42Speaker 1: gray pants, and white sandals. He has never been seen
- 8:46Speaker 1: or heard from again. Now Lulu speaks with a thick
- 8:52Speaker 1: Eastern European accent and as able to communicate in English, Romanian, Russian, Hungarian. Wow,
- 9:02Speaker 1: that is one, two, three, four languages. That is amazing, Okay. Now,
- 9:08Speaker 1: his distinctive accent, combined with his ability to speak multiple
- 9:12Speaker 1: language languages, may have made him more memorable to anyone
- 9:18Speaker 1: who's cross paths with him. So if you are in
- 9:22Speaker 1: the LA area of California or the surrounding areas and
- 9:26Speaker 1: you have seen anyone that looks like him has this
- 9:30Speaker 1: unusual accent, even if it was years ago, because he
- 9:34Speaker 1: has been missing since twenty fifteen, please, okay, please, I'm
- 9:40Speaker 1: asking you to call the LA Police Department at eight
- 9:43Speaker 1: seven seven two seventy five five two seven three. His
- 9:48Speaker 1: family is desperate to know what happened to him. I mean,
- 9:54Speaker 1: I don't math here, but eighty two plus fifteen that'd
- 9:58Speaker 1: be ninety two. That would make him ninety seven years old. Okay,
- 10:03Speaker 1: And even if his family cannot find him alive, they
- 10:06Speaker 1: would love to have his remains home so that he
- 10:10Speaker 1: can be buried. Okay. Now, guys, as I mentioned earlier,
- 10:16Speaker 1: we do have a midday missing Facebook page. I'm going
- 10:20Speaker 1: to ask you to if you are on Facebook, like it,
- 10:24Speaker 1: follow it because we share all of our missing person
- 10:27Speaker 1: posters along with other cases that need attention that have
- 10:32Speaker 1: been verified. I shared several over the weekend. Please, like
- 10:37Speaker 1: I asked, share the missing person posters for both of
- 10:41Speaker 1: our cases today. It really helps because you never know
- 10:46Speaker 1: what that one thing is that's going to help bring
- 10:50Speaker 1: them home. And follow us on our other social media
- 10:54Speaker 1: platforms because you never know what craziness you're going to get.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Like today I posted about Tony Romo, who I call
- 11:03Speaker 1: Romolicious and I am now and always and forever will
- 11:07Speaker 1: be a Romolicious fan. And yes he had an ow
- 11:13Speaker 1: I guys, if you've seen the video, it's sad, but
- 11:16Speaker 1: also he was so polite and so respectful. He made
- 11:19Speaker 1: a mistake. Okay, we shouldn't crucify him that for that. Okay,
- 11:24Speaker 1: CBS do better, Okay, do better, don't forget. Every Thursday
- 11:31Speaker 1: at eight pm Eastern, seven pm Central, through Crime and Wine,
- 11:36Speaker 1: Time invites you to grab a glass of wine, something
- 11:39Speaker 1: cool to tree and join us for a deep dive
- 11:42Speaker 1: into the cases that keep true true crime fans up
- 11:46Speaker 1: at night. Or send me a mama down rabbit holes. Okay. Now,
- 11:52Speaker 1: this week we will be continuing our coverage of Sarah Hartsfield,
- 11:56Speaker 1: the cold Hearted Killer in part four of Black Widow.
- 12:00Speaker 1: We had to miss last week due to some things
- 12:04Speaker 1: going on, but we will be back Thursday night. Uh.
- 12:11Speaker 1: Kelly Lisa says choosing to drink too much alcohol and
- 12:14Speaker 1: dry is not a mistake. It's an on purpose. I agree,
- 12:18Speaker 1: and I do say when I say a mistake, I
- 12:21Speaker 1: say that because I'm going to just guess ninety percent
- 12:25Speaker 1: of adults over the age of twenty one have made
- 12:28Speaker 1: that bad decision at least once in their life. And
- 12:30Speaker 1: it's a decision that You're right, he could have killed somebody,
- 12:34Speaker 1: He could have injured a lot of people, and that's
- 12:37Speaker 1: not okay. Okay, it's not okay. But I also think
- 12:42Speaker 1: we shouldn't just cancel somebody because they made a poor decision.
- 12:47Speaker 1: And I'm still a fan of his. Now, does this
- 12:51Speaker 1: mean he needs to go to rehab? Maybe? I don't know.
- 12:54Speaker 1: He has never been in the media before for doing
- 12:59Speaker 1: some of the crazyness. Kelly Lisa says, you're a big
- 13:02Speaker 1: Tony Romolicious in Cowboys fan. Yeah, I think we owe
- 13:07Speaker 1: him a little bit of grace here because considering what
- 13:12Speaker 1: some of the other Dallas Cowboy players have been arrested
- 13:17Speaker 1: for in years past, I think this is small compared
- 13:23Speaker 1: to some of the former players. And that's all I'm
- 13:27Speaker 1: gonna say. Okay, because I still like Roolicious. Okay, Now, guys,
- 13:33Speaker 1: in case you didn't know, we do have membership tiers now.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Even though Couchport has its own channel, Midday Missing will
- 13:43Speaker 1: be getting their own channel soon. All of our merch
- 13:46Speaker 1: and our memberships stay right here on True Crime in
- 13:50Speaker 1: Wine Time. Okay, And if you're interested, we have some
- 13:55Speaker 1: really cool merch. You can go to Tcwtmedia dot because
- 14:02Speaker 1: we just released our pink but deadly coloring book and
- 14:06Speaker 1: I think it's adorable. Kelly Lisa says, not just Dallas
- 14:11Speaker 1: Cowboy players all professional athletes. I agree, but Jones is
- 14:17Speaker 1: known for going for some of those that have issues,
- 14:21Speaker 1: and I'll be honest, it drives me insane. Okay, like
- 14:27Speaker 1: when he brought Michael Vick sorry shooting dogs, fighting dogs.
- 14:32Speaker 1: I can't forgive that one. I can't. It's just me.
- 14:36Speaker 1: Call me a bad person. I don't know, but I
- 14:38Speaker 1: just can't. Okay, I just can't. Now, I do want
- 14:42Speaker 1: to say thank you to everyone for being here today.
- 14:46Speaker 1: I know this has been a very short episode and
- 14:49Speaker 1: it's because these cases do not have a lot of attention.
- 14:53Speaker 1: I do want to ask all of the mainstream media newscasters, newspapers,
- 14:59Speaker 1: digital online news, please let's share more information about those
- 15:04Speaker 1: that are missing, because we do want to share their stories.
- 15:08Speaker 1: We do want to let these families know that their
- 15:12Speaker 1: loved ones are still remembered. Okay, now, guys, until next time,
- 15:19Speaker 1: stay safe, stay aware. If you see something, say something,
- 15:24Speaker 1: and let's help these loved ones bring their loved ones home.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Bye bye, guys,
