Latest / True Crime with Gavin Fish / Feds Are Looking Into Corruption & Nobody Says What It Means... Except Me | Ellen Greenberg Murder
Transcript
- 0:01The handling of the Ellen Greenberg case since her murder,
- 0:07not her death, wasn't an accident.
- 0:10It had nothing to do with her. It was a murder on January 26th,
- 0:182011. The handling of the
- 0:21investigation, and I'm going to use their quotes, the
- 0:24investigation and also everything, all the dominoes
- 0:30that lined up behind that first domino of a terrible
- 0:35investigation is an embarrassment.
- 0:38It's it should be an embarrassment to almost
- 0:41everybody. Not everybody, but almost
- 0:44everybody who was involved. Now, recently there's been news
- 0:50that the federal government through the US Attorney's office
- 0:55is investigating corruption in this case.
- 1:00But nobody seems to want to touch what that corruption is,
- 1:06what happened. They just want to report that
- 1:11there is alleged corruption. But that's not how I roll today.
- 1:16We're going to go through the whole thing and hopefully shed
- 1:22some light on this terrible, terrible tragedy.

- 2:44very, very, very important case. I just want to do it's, it's

- 6:25here since the point is to talk about the corruption.
- 6:30OK, maybe what? I maybe, maybe let's do this.
- 6:36Maybe let's do this. OK.
- 6:38Ellen Greenberg was a 27 year old elementary school teacher in
- 6:45in the Philadelphia area. She taught at a school called
- 6:51Juniata Park Academy. No, it is not Juanita Park
- 6:54Academy, it's Juniata Park Academy.
- 6:58She was engaged to be married. You see her here in her
- 7:02beautiful wedding dress trying it on.
- 7:05In fact, they were so close to the wedding that Save the Dates
- 7:08had been sent out. And yeah, she was living with
- 7:16her boyfriend, her snuggly bear, her sweetie pie guy named Sam
- 7:22Goldberg. Now Sam to Ellen was a catch.
- 7:29Came from a good family, pretty well to do.
- 7:31Pretty accomplished kind of old money. 3 generations, right?
- 7:36It's not like she was marrying into the Carnegie's or anything
- 7:38but. But what appeared on the surface
- 7:41to be a very good family. He had good prospects.
- 7:45He he had gained his education. He was working and broadcasting.
- 7:49He had won an Emmy Award. These are, you know, and as
- 7:55Ellen's dad told me on time, he was a nice Jewish boy.
- 8:00What more could a father ask for, right?
- 8:02So to my knowledge, Josh and Sandy were happy for their
- 8:08daughter Ellen. Now, as we get closer to that
- 8:14fateful day, which was January 26th, 2011, we're coming up on
- 8:18the 15th anniversary of this crime, Ellen began to display
- 8:25symptoms of anxiety. She was telling lots of people
- 8:30she was having problems at work, that it was just causing her all
- 8:36sorts of stress. She reached out to a family
- 8:42member and asked if maybe she could move in just for a little,
- 8:47little while. This family member asked you and
- 8:52Sam. And then Ellen dropped it.
- 8:56She reached out to her parents and she asked if she could come
- 9:00home. And the reason that she gave was
- 9:04just, there's just too much. She had all this anxiety now,
- 9:08her parents concerned for her well-being and concerned about
- 9:13her prospects professionally. She'd put so much work into
- 9:17this. She had, you know, she had gone
- 9:20and gotten her undergraduate degree.
- 9:21She had gotten 2 master's degrees.
- 9:26Concerned, they told her that she could come home.
- 9:29But before they went to that measure, why don't we get you
- 9:34help? Why don't we find you a
- 9:37counselor, which they did. And Ellen began counseling and
- 9:43let's see, I think it's it's somebody who prescribes drugs.
- 9:48I think she was a psychiatrist. Her name was Ellen Berman.
- 9:55Ellen Berman. I think so.
- 9:57And she started on anti anxiety medication.
- 10:03She, she and it, and she was doing well.
- 10:07They changed the medication along the way and she was doing
- 10:11well. She reported to friends, she
- 10:14reported to her family that she was feeling much better.
- 10:18OK, that brings us to January 26th, 2011.
- 10:23A Nor'easter was barreling down on Philadelphia, all of
- 10:29Pennsylvania, really. A nor'easter is the wintry
- 10:33equivalent. It's not the same, but you guys
- 10:37get my meaning. It's the wintry equivalent of a
- 10:40hurricane. If you were to live down on the
- 10:42Gulf Coast, for example, it shuts down everything.
- 10:46There's so much snow, there's so much cold that they close
- 10:51businesses, they close schools, they close the government down.
- 10:55The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation just can't even
- 10:59keep up with their plows and all this.
- 11:01They just can't. And so Ellen came home early
- 11:03from school and from teaching school, from work, and gassed up
- 11:10her car, came home the last, the last activity on her computer
- 11:19was submitting grades for her students.
- 11:22She also checked that she called the families of the students to
- 11:27make sure that they all got home, and then she went.
- 11:30She set about making a fruit salad when all of a sudden,
- 11:40according to the official report, she decided she would
- 11:45take a Cutco 1721 knife and she would turn it on herself 10
- 11:56times in the front, at least 10 times in the back, including a
- 12:02puncture of her spinal column and a puncture of her heart, and
- 12:09then fell to the ground dead. Now you might be asking
- 12:14yourself, where was Sam when all this was happening?
- 12:18Oh, well, conveniently, Sam had decided to go down to the gym at
- 12:26the at the apartment complex. Now look at Sam.
- 12:30Now, I don't want to, I don't want to like body shame here
- 12:34because man, they're they're pictures of me.
- 12:37In fact, I'm I'm going to show you a bit.
- 12:38Look at me. Look at I have nothing to talk
- 12:40about, right? This was like what, two years
- 12:42ago? I get it.
- 12:44But just just look at Sam. Just look at Sam, OK?
- 12:50Not, not a gym rat. He, he doesn't strike me as a
- 12:53gym rat, I should say. OK, But conveniently, he decided
- 12:58for about 45 minutes to go down to the apartment's gym on the
- 13:021st floor where he was seen on security camera.
- 13:08He then went back up to the apartment and the story goes he
- 13:15could not get in. He said because it was locked
- 13:20from the inside the door would open part way but it would not
- 13:24open all the way because it was locked with a swing bar style
- 13:31lock. This is an actual picture of the
- 13:33lock. This is the story.
- 13:35OK I don't believe this story. I don't believe this story.
- 13:42After Hemming and hawing and complaining and texting and
- 13:47calling Ellen, Sam decides he says, to break down the door.
- 13:55He even said that he went down and and tried to get somebody to
- 13:58let him in, but there was no joy there.
- 14:03And so he decided to break down the door and he breaks in and he
- 14:09finds Ellen on the floor. Now, in fairness, fairness to
- 14:14the story, he couldn't have possibly seen all this damage.
- 14:19OK, he couldn't have seen the damage.
- 14:23But there she was. She was in the kitchen.
- 14:25She was laying kind of on her back with her head and shoulders
- 14:30up against the the cabinets. Now, like I, I want you to
- 14:35believe me when I say she was not on her back.
- 14:39I have told you guys this before.
- 14:41Josh and Sandy Greenberg, the wonderful, wonderful people that
- 14:45they are, allowed me unprecedented access to the
- 14:50crime scene photos, to the autopsy photos, to all the
- 14:53reports that they had. I've, I've read it and watched
- 14:58it all. She was not lying on her back,
- 15:03OK? She was on the floor, it's true.
- 15:06But her shoulders and her head were not on the floor.
- 15:09Now, for those of you who don't know know the case, I think it's
- 15:15probably important that we listen to the 911 call.
- 15:21And so I'm going to bring it up here.
- 15:23This is the 911 call that Mister Goldberg made to emergency
- 15:29services. Let's go ahead and begin it.
- 15:34I just I just walked into my park life.
- 15:39Fiance is on the floor with blood everywhere.
- 15:41What is the address? 4601 Flat Rock Rd.
- 15:44Please come help. What is?
- 15:46Now 01 Flat Rock Rd. Is this a house or a park?
- 15:50Oh no, Oh no, it's an apartment. What a park number.
- 15:57Please, Harry, please keep. Bleeding from.
- 15:59I don't know. I can't tell she's.
- 16:01So you have to calm yourself down in order to get you some
- 16:04help. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 16:05She. I don't know.
- 16:06I'm looking at her right now. She.
- 16:10I don't, I can't see anything. She shouldn't know.
- 16:12There's nothing broken. She's bleeding, Allie.
- 16:15You don't know where she's bleeding from.
- 16:16Cancel it's. Coming from it's, I think her
- 16:19head, I think she hit her head, I think everywhere.
- 16:24She might have fallen. Do you know what happened?
- 16:26She may have slept his blood on the on the table.
- 16:29Her face is a little. Purple OK, hold on for rescue
- 16:33for her. Stay on the phone.
- 16:494601 Flat Rock Rd. Please, Harry. 4601 Flat Rock.
- 16:54Yes, that's all. My, my, I just my.
- 16:57I went downstairs to go workout. I came back up.
- 17:00The door was lashed. My fiance is inside.
- 17:03She wasn't. She wasn't answering.
- 17:04So after about 1/2 hour I decided to break it down.
- 17:07I see her now, just on the floor blood.
- 17:09She's not. She's not responding.
- 17:12OK, is she breathing? Look at her chest.
- 17:16I need you to calm down and I need you to look at her chest.
- 17:18It's really. I don't think she.
- 17:19I really don't think she. Is listen to me?
- 17:21Someone's on the way. Look at her chest.
- 17:23Is she flat on her back? She's on her back so I bring
- 17:26her. Look at her chest and tell me if
- 17:27it's going up and down, up and down.
- 17:30I don't see her moving. OK, Do you know how to do CPR?
- 17:33I don't. OK, I could tell you what to do.
- 17:35OK. Until they get there, I want you
- 17:37to keep her phone. God, hello.
- 17:39Yeah, Hi. OK.

- 17:53Oh my God, Ali, please. Listen, you can't freak out,
- 17:57Sir, because. OK, I'm trying.
- 17:58Not don't try not. Her shirt won't come off.
- 18:01It's a zipper. Oh my God, she stabbed herself.
- 18:04Where? She fell in a knife.
- 18:06Oh no. Her knife sticking out.
- 18:07A what? There's a knife sticking out of
- 18:10her heart. Oh, she stabbed herself.
- 18:13I guess so. I don't know where she fell on
- 18:15it. I don't know.
- 18:16OK, well don't touch it. OK, so I'm just about to let her
- 18:19down here now. I mean, what do I do?
- 18:21I mean, you can't. It's the nicest in her chest.
- 18:23It's going to be kind of hard for you to do CPR at this time.
- 18:26Oh no. Oh my goodness.
- 18:28OK. Police wish operator 277.
- 18:31Is someone coming here? Yes, they are.
- 18:33You said 4601 flat, right, Right.
- 18:35Yes. OK, someone's on the way and the
- 18:38knife is still inside Winter. What?
- 18:41The knife is still inside of her.
- 18:45Yes. I didn't take it out.
- 18:47It's like it looks like it's, it looks like it's right in her
- 18:50heart. OK, someones on the way out
- 18:53there. OK, just.
- 18:54Get Oh my God, Oh my God, how? Old is.
- 18:57She 27. 27 and there's no sign of life at all, please.
- 19:03Don't be what? Been trying to her arm and tell
- 19:06me she responds to pain. She's not, it's not her arm, and
- 19:13her hands are still warm. I don't know what that means,
- 19:15but there's blood every I mean. I know, but you can't and the
- 19:18knife is still inside of her. How far can you see how far it
- 19:21went in? It looks pretty deep.
- 19:23OK, it looks 3 and it's a long knife.
- 19:26Don't touch anything. Yeah, don't touch anything.
- 19:28I'm not touching anything it says.
- 19:30I can't believe this though, no? Wait, it was just you there with
- 19:32her? We yeah, we're the only ones.
- 19:35Here. And she ran in the door you said
- 19:37Lance did shut. No, no, I, I, I went downstairs
- 19:40to work out and I when I came back up, the door was latched
- 19:45like it was, you know, it wasn't like it was, you know, it was
- 19:47like locked from the inside and I'm yelling and I'm so.
- 19:51I'm, you know, yelling into no. No, no, no, no.
- 19:55So there's. No sign of a break in.
- 19:57No, no sign of a break in at all.
- 19:58I mean, there will be when you get here because I had to break
- 20:00the latch, but to get in. OK, 4601 Flat Rock and this is a
- 20:06house, right? It's an apartment.
- 20:08Fire apartment. OK, That'll help.
- 20:11Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
- 20:12All right. Thank you.
- 20:16Bye. All right.
- 20:16So that is the 911 call now. I think that we've all learned
- 20:22over time that people behave weirdly on 911.
- 20:27By the way, I had an intern go get me water during that and
- 20:33that intern did a very, very good job.
- 20:38I mean really over really outdid themselves, really over
- 20:43produced, very well done. OK, Now police come, OK and
- 20:50firefighters come and you can see this in the security video
- 20:53that you can see on Ellen's case page on my website.
- 20:56They come and they do an investigation.
- 21:00Now, the first responders who came, they told investigator Tom
- 21:04Brennan, one of them did that when he was leaving the
- 21:08apartment. He and the police were coming
- 21:10in. He said you got yourself a
- 21:11homicide here. The police, they disagreed.
- 21:18They seem to have just looked at the scene and gone.
- 21:22You know what, she did this to herself and then a man named
- 21:26Steve Olshefsky, a medical examiner's investigator.
- 21:29And I don't want to cast shed shade on Mr. Olshefsky.
- 21:33It's a hard job I took. It's the middle of a, of a
- 21:37nor'easter. I totally get it.
- 21:39But he does what I think is a pretty cursory investigation.
- 21:43You can read his investigation report on my website.
- 21:46But this is a, this is a guy like Doctor Joseph Scott Morgan,
- 21:51right? He's a medical, legal, medical,
- 21:54legal death investigator on behalf of the medical examiner.
- 21:58He comes in, he kind of lifts up Ellen's shirt.
- 22:01He sees what he thinks are hesitation wounds and then the
- 22:06coup de grace and says to himself, you know what?
- 22:09This is not a homicide. This is a case of a young woman
- 22:14deciding to do that to herself. I'm being very careful with my
- 22:19language here because YouTube goes crazy over this case.
- 22:24OK, YouTube goes crazy over this case.
- 22:26They think that it doesn't matter, but I'm being very
- 22:29careful with my language just to censor myself for YouTube, OK?
- 22:34Anyway, the body then is taken to the medical examiner's office
- 22:39where it is examined. I should say she is.
- 22:44Her body is examined by Doctor Marlon Osborne.
- 22:50Doctor Osborne correctly says no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 22:53Hold on, guys, we got a homicide here.
- 22:57She did not do this to herself. Somebody did it to her.
- 23:01OK, Now this is where the great conspiracy comes in, and this is
- 23:06where evidence of corruption starts to rear its ugly head,
- 23:12OK, because Doctor Osborne correctly stated this is a
- 23:18homicide. And then over the course of a
- 23:22couple of months, it was between January 26th and April the 13th,
- 23:28if memory serves, it was April 10th.
- 23:32Right around in there. There is a public through the
- 23:38media pressure campaign put on by members of the Philadelphia
- 23:43Police Department to make the public believe that the medical
- 23:48examiner is wrong, that Ellen did it to herself, not somebody
- 23:55did it to Ellen. And after a long campaign
- 23:59through the media, months long and what the Greenbergs in one
- 24:04of their lawsuits calls a clandestine meeting between
- 24:07members of the Philadelphia Police Department, at least one
- 24:13member of the Philadelphia District Attorney's office, that
- 24:16would be Anne Pontario and his boss, Doctor Sam Gullino.
- 24:22He was pressured into changing the manner of death from
- 24:27homicide to self-inflicted. And then that started a whole
- 24:35just yeah. So why is the question, why
- 24:44would the city of Philadelphia, why would the PPD, why would the
- 24:50police care what the medical examiner's office had to say?
- 24:56Why would they care about that? Have you ever heard of any other
- 25:00case where a Police Department would pressure an independent,
- 25:04what's supposed to be an independent office, an
- 25:07independent investigator to change anything about his
- 25:12report? Have have you ever heard of
- 25:15that? I personally have not.
- 25:20I, I've never heard of that happening.
- 25:22But in this case, it appears that it happened.
- 25:27OK, now there is I'm this is so self-serving, but I've written
- 25:33this out on my website. This was back in August of 2024.
- 25:40So I'm just going to bring it up for you here.
- 25:42I wrote a blog post titled Understanding Ellen Greenberg's
- 25:46Parents 3 Front War for Justice. OK, now this you know what?
- 25:52This needs to be updated because things have changed so much.
- 25:56But basically this, this created a an environment in which Josh
- 26:03and Sandy Greenberg had to fight.
- 26:05For somebody to just say this makes no sense.
- 26:09She was stabbed 20 times. The new medical examiner says 23
- 26:15she would but let's say 20 ish times including to the back of
- 26:19her head and neck, including piercing her spinal column and
- 26:23her lower brain stem. And you're telling me she did it
- 26:27to herself? Now let's go back over to this
- 26:34fat Gavin from a couple of years ago with my beautiful,
- 26:39beautiful, beautiful wife, Kimberly, who does not like to
- 26:46be on camera. And she did this for me.
- 26:48Why? Because she's a perfect avatar,
- 26:51but for Ellen. But we're going to go through
- 26:56this pretty quickly. We're not going to watch the
- 26:57whole thing, but let me just show you this little bit of
- 27:00video here, OK? Hey, guys, this is my wife,
- 27:03Kimberly. You too, snugly.
- 27:05You too. So Kimberly and I were talking
- 27:10about the Ellen Greenberg case and going through the autopsy,
- 27:14Ellen Greenberg was 5 foot 736 lbs.
- 27:20Turns out that my wife is 5 foot 736 lbs.
- 27:26So we thought that she would be a good avatar for Ellen
- 27:30Greenberg if we were to recreate the wounds that she supposedly
- 27:35made to herself. OK, so let me just skip ahead
- 27:39see if we can. Oh yeah.
- 27:41So I use the paint stab being that also because it's a flat
- 27:46but trying to figure out like that.
- 27:50And she is right-handed. Well, Oh yeah, she had a towel
- 27:54in her left hand, so go ahead and grab that.
- 28:04But it can't be up like that. It has to be like that.
- 28:07OK, but you're holding the blade.
- 28:11Yeah. So we went through this whole
- 28:12thing trying to figure out was Ellen even capable of doing that
- 28:18to herself? Guys, it's stupid to even think
- 28:22it. It's stupid.
- 28:23I got sidetracked, though. I got sidetracked, didn't I?
- 28:27I was just all excited about showing off my awesome wife and
- 28:30my old fat self. But anyway, Josh and Sandy have
- 28:35been. I mean, that started their fight
- 28:38to get somebody in government to say this is ridiculous.
- 28:46OK. They hired a guy named Larry
- 28:49Krasner. Now, that is one picture that I
- 28:51did not, that I did not pick up. I did not prepare.
- 28:55Larry Krasner is the current District Attorney for the county
- 28:59of Philadelphia, and at the time he was a private lawyer.
- 29:07They hired him to try to get the district attorney's office to
- 29:13take a new look, the district attorney's office said.
- 29:17You know what we will do that we will take a close look at this
- 29:21case because we certainly don't want this is this is Gavin's
- 29:26imagination, by the way, because we certainly don't want the
- 29:30appearance that we didn't do our job here.
- 29:32So we'll shuffle a couple papers here, we'll look at a couple
- 29:35videos and poof, here's here's what we think.
- 29:39We think she did it to herself. And subsequently, subsequently
- 29:49Larry Krasner was elected District Attorney.
- 29:53So now there is an actual conflict of interest.
- 29:56He cannot keep this case in his office because he represented
- 30:03the Greenbergs. So according to Pennsylvania
- 30:07law, and I think properly so, he kicked the case to the attorney
- 30:12general's office, which was led by this guy, a man named Josh
- 30:18Shapiro. Josh Shapiro, by the way, is
- 30:22currently the governor of the Commonwealth.
- 30:26I have been, I've personally been disinvited from a couple of
- 30:32different events that he's done out here in my neck of the woods
- 30:34because I live in Pennsylvania. He doesn't like me all that
- 30:37much. But any it doesn't matter.
- 30:38This isn't about me, right? This isn't about me.
- 30:40What would you say, intern? Yeah, it's not about me.
- 30:43OK. So anyway, it's kicked up to
- 30:50Josh Shapiro's office and the Greenbergs continue through
- 30:55legal counsel and they say, will you please take a look at this
- 30:59because this is ridiculous. She did not do it to herself.
- 31:02She did not do this to herself. Attorney General Shapiro and
- 31:08Attorney General Shapiro's office says, you know what,
- 31:11you're right. We will take well, you're right
- 31:14to come to us. Thank you for coming to me.
- 31:16This is my imagination. Again, thank you, Doctor and
- 31:19Misses Greenberg for coming to me.
- 31:22You found the right guy in the right office.
- 31:24We will take a close look at this.
- 31:27Now, what they didn't really say is that when he was elected
- 31:34attorney general, see, he was not attorney general when Ellen
- 31:37was murdered. He was elected later, but when
- 31:41he was elected, he made certain hiring decisions and many of his
- 31:49of his staff members were hired from the Philadelphia District
- 31:54Attorney's office and up to the A G's office, they went.
- 31:59So when his office said thank you for coming to us, we want to
- 32:04make sure that the district attorney's office did it
- 32:06correctly. We are going to take an
- 32:08independent look at this. We're going to shuffle some
- 32:12papers. We're going to read a couple
- 32:14reports. We're going to watch a couple
- 32:16videos and poof, we agree with the DA's office.
- 32:20But here is the thing. Those people were the people in
- 32:25the DA's office who said the same thing.
- 32:28They did not, in my opinion, based on any evidence that I
- 32:33have seen. All of the evidence that I have
- 32:35seen, I my opinion is that they did not do an investigation at
- 32:41all. Now, they pointed to a record on
- 32:44Ellen's computer that had certain search terms most and
- 32:51website visits, most of which that had to do with with
- 32:57somebody deciding to harm themselves.
- 33:00And but most of those, experts agree, were what are called
- 33:05shadow searches. It really isn't much of a thing
- 33:09anymore in in today's Internet terms, But at the time it was a
- 33:14shadow searches. Hey, I if I go to a website that
- 33:18that I don't know, I, I searched the side effects of a certain
- 33:22drug, there will be little windows in there opening,
- 33:28opening up to other websites that the algorithm at the time
- 33:33believed had something to do with what you were looking at.
- 33:36And that could be, for example, side effects of prescription
- 33:41drugs could be self harm. So that's what those were.
- 33:46But the attorney general's office said, look, she searched
- 33:50it. She, I think that I, we're
- 33:53experts here. We are professional
- 33:56investigators. Look at my name tag.
- 33:58It says professional investigator, right?
- 34:01It was that kind of thing. And, and So what ended up
- 34:05happening is the the attorney general's office said, we're not
- 34:11going to look at this any further.
- 34:12However, if you come up with your own information through
- 34:17your own investigation, and it's new and it and it and it
- 34:20contradicts what we have come to ourselves, we will surely take a
- 34:25look at that. OK, so it's about this time that
- 34:35people like me are coming on the scene.
- 34:37We're starting to learn about the Ellen Greenberg case, the
- 34:41podcasters, media types. I, I would, I want to give a
- 34:46shout out to Stephanie Farr from the Philadelphia Inquirer.
- 34:48She was probably the OG when it came to covering this case.
- 34:53But by about this time, I'm coming on the scene, Other
- 34:56people are coming on the scene. I get a tip through my website.
- 35:03Let's see if I go over to the website just so you guys can see
- 35:06this you can you can click on this little icon right there and
- 35:10that opens a form where you can send anything you want to me.
- 35:14I also have APO box that you can if you if you don't want a
- 35:18digital footprint or digital tracks and you want to send me
- 35:23anything and if you go to support me or I think it's at
- 35:26the bottom of every page my my PO Box address.
- 35:29Anyway, somebody filled this form out, did it anonymously and
- 35:34said, you know, Gavin, thank you for looking into this case.
- 35:39By the way, did you know that Josh Shapiro went to school with
- 35:48Sam Goldberg's cousin and I went interesting.
- 35:56I wonder if I can corroborate this.
- 35:58So the first thing I did, the name of the the school at the
- 36:04time was Akiba Academy. It's now a Barack Academy.
- 36:11I go to eBay and I find a yearbook and I order it.
- 36:16And sure enough, I find that Josh Shapiro went to school with
- 36:22Sam Goldberg's first cousin. Now if some if the governor of
- 36:27Pennsylvania went to school with one of my first cousins that I
- 36:31didn't grow up with, you know, I grew up in California, I had
- 36:35cousins growing up in Arizona, Puerto Rico, Wyoming, Utah, I
- 36:43had cousins everywhere, Colorado, Texas.
- 36:48So if that were the case, that it would be different.
- 36:55But with Mr. Mr. Goldberg here, he belongs to a very close knit
- 37:02Philadelphia family. One of his best friends is a guy
- 37:08named Kamian Schwartzman. Kamian is his first cousin.
- 37:12In this photo, we're looking at Kamian and his father, James
- 37:16Schwartzman. Now, James has a daughter.
- 37:20Her name is Kimberly. She goes by Kimby.
- 37:23OK, so came in, and Kimby are Sam's first cousins.
- 37:28But they're tight guys. They're tight.
- 37:30They live near each other. They live on the main line in
- 37:33Philadelphia. They are part of each other's
- 37:36lives, like on the regular. And these guys are buddies.
- 37:41OK Well, turns out that. Yeah, Kimbi did go to school
- 37:52with Josh Shapiro and called themselves friends.
- 37:55This is a picture. The two faces that are
- 37:58unpixelated is a later photo of Josh Shapiro and and Kimbi
- 38:07Schwartzman Kimmel. And I, I found I found, you
- 38:13know, Twitter posts when it was called Twitter, there were
- 38:17tweets telling me saying that they were friends.
- 38:21I found pictures of them together like this.
- 38:24I found some, what do you call it, political donations, right.
- 38:33So, and, and then getting back to and so they know the families
- 38:37know each other. OK, this was a very small,
- 38:42ritzy, expensive private Academy that these families went to.
- 38:49And if we go back to Uncle Jimmy, Kimby's dad, Camian's
- 38:54dad, he is a former US attorney. At the time he was, let's see, I
- 39:04don't want to misspeak this, but he was a private attorney at the
- 39:08time. And I believe, well, by the time
- 39:12I came on the scene, he was a judge as well.
- 39:14OK. So, and he has, he has contacts
- 39:19throughout the political establishment in Philadelphia
- 39:22and the police establishment in Philadelphia.
- 39:26And that is that is basically the crux or the epicenter of
- 39:32where this corruption might be. The idea being, and this, this
- 39:37is just my speculation, right? I don't know this, but the idea
- 39:42being that when before Sam called 911 on January 26th,
- 39:502011, he made a previous call, he made multiple previous calls.
- 39:59Those calls were to Cami and Schwarzman, and then he received
- 40:05a call from. James Schwartzman, Judge
- 40:09Schwartzman. Powerful family, politically
- 40:15connected family, wealthy family.
- 40:20And that is where the IT just gets absolutely muddy and where
- 40:26I believe the corruption exists right there, right there.
- 40:37I think this is just, I'm just, I'm speculating here.
- 40:40I'm not accusing anybody of anything.
- 40:42But I think, well, let me put it this way.
- 40:46If I were kind of a spoiled brat kid, which we I'm satisfied to
- 40:53be able to say that I think Sam, based on conversations I've had
- 40:57with multiple people, kind of grew up as a kid that could get
- 41:01away with anything that mommy and daddy would swoop in and
- 41:04they would save the day mostly through mommy's side of the
- 41:08family, the Hankins, that that is where the money came from,
- 41:14from what I understand. And so if I were that kid and I
- 41:21got into trouble my whole life, it could just, it could be
- 41:24something as simple, it could be just childish things.
- 41:27It could be major things, right? But if I were in trouble, having
- 41:36lived a life of being bailed out of all my trouble all my life,
- 41:41bailed out by my folks, by this guy, by actually these men, I
- 41:48think both lawyers, by the way, I would certainly make that
- 41:54call. And I would expect that they
- 41:58would do the same thing that they had done my whole life.
- 42:02And I think that that is where many of us are are stuck now.
- 42:10Josh Shapiro was not anywhere in the picture during the time that
- 42:14the murder occurred or the investigation by the PPD, by the
- 42:19medical examiner's office, by the DA's office.
- 42:24But he was there when the case was kicked to his office and he
- 42:29decided, outside of all reasonable evidence, I should
- 42:34say, his office decided that Ellen was a victim of herself,
- 42:43which just belies logic. It makes absolutely no sense
- 42:50whatsoever. That's where I think, and I
- 42:55think that I think a call could have been made.
- 42:57I think at at every level, I think calls could have been made
- 43:01to the Police Department. You know, I think this was, I
- 43:04think she did it to herself, to the DA's office.
- 43:07You know, I think she did it to herself, to the AG's office.
- 43:10Everybody agrees she did it to herself.
- 43:12It sure would be great if this was swept under the rug by
- 43:15politically connected and powerful and rich people in
- 43:19Philly. And that guys, is what I believe
- 43:24the federal government is doing right now.
- 43:27I think they are investigating that.
- 43:28Now, what we know is that there have been subpoenas issued.
- 43:32There have been subpoenas for not only documents, but also
- 43:37interviews. So I think they're taking this
- 43:41seriously. I think it's going to take a
- 43:42while. I think it's going to take a
- 43:44long while. But you know what one thing
- 43:46about Josh and Sandy, man, these folks have the patience of job.
- 43:53These folks are playing the long game.
- 43:59They just continue. They just they just press
- 44:01forward with grace, with grit, with determination.
- 44:06They just press forward. If you want to know anything
- 44:11more about the case and how that fight has gone, I, I suggest you
- 44:17head over to my to my website, go over to the blog.
- 44:23You click on the blog and then click on Ellen Greenberg and you
- 44:26will see the articles that I've written, including the one
- 44:28titled that I just showed you, Understanding the Parents 3
- 44:33Front War for Justice for Ellen. And then a second one that I
- 44:38would suggest is this one. I wrote this in July of 2024
- 44:43when Josh Shapiro was being considered as a vice
- 44:47presidential running mate for Kamala Harris.
- 44:51I wrote this. It's an opinion piece.
- 44:55People were talking about how the nation wasn't ready for a
- 44:59Jewish vice president and I said nae.
- 45:02Nae has nothing to do with anti-Semitism.
- 45:05It has to do with what I think is his part in covering up a
- 45:13murder. And I, I would invite you to, to
- 45:17read that because listen, in the United States, for those of you
- 45:23outside the United States, bless you.
- 45:25I am jealous of you in many ways.
- 45:28But here in the United States, the presidential election cycle
- 45:31begins exactly, maybe 3 1/2 seconds after a president is
- 45:38elected, not even sworn into office, just elected.
- 45:41Now comes the next cycle and I'm being reached out to by so many
- 45:46people try in the political machine trying to get dirt on
- 45:51Josh Shapiro. He is a serious contender for
- 45:54president of the United States. And I get this is no commentary
- 46:00on his politics. I like to stay politics free,
- 46:03OK? Whether you agree with him or
- 46:08not has no bearing on my opinion here.
- 46:11My opinion is that as attorney general, his office engaged in
- 46:16the cover up of the murder of Alan Greenberg.
- 46:18And for that, I do not want him to be president of the United
- 46:21States. I don't even want him to be
- 46:22considered at all. So, yeah, go.
- 46:28And and that would that would guys that would be for if this
- 46:33were the case for any political party or none at all.
- 46:37My opinion would remain the same.
- 46:39Has nothing to do with politics. OK, so I invite you to read
- 46:43that. Now let's bring up Ellen's
- 46:44beautiful mug and see what you guys are saying over on on the
- 46:50live comments. Let's see this one from Lid
- 46:52Ritz. Gavin, can you explain as much
- 46:54as you can share why Ellen's parents don't advocate for an
- 46:57exhumation of her body? I understand it's related to
- 47:00their Judaism, but I'm not familiar with that aspect of it.
- 47:03I don't actually believe it is part of their heritage or their
- 47:06religious practice. I have talked with Josh and
- 47:13Sandy about that and if, if it would help the case, I think
- 47:20they would do it. But I, I don't think that it
- 47:23would help the case and I don't think they think they that it
- 47:26would help the case. Ellen, I think Ellen can stay at
- 47:34rest and there is enough evidence, including portions of
- 47:41her spinal column that were retained by the medical
- 47:44examiner's office that that show, I mean, it works in the
- 47:48favor of, of murder. It shows a lack of vital
- 47:52response it. And so I think I don't think
- 47:56they need to do it. And, and, but I do believe that
- 48:01if if the experts that they talk to their legal team, I think
- 48:07that that if they believed that it were necessary, they would do
- 48:10it. Yeah.
- 48:13And you know, there are other cases that we know of like
- 48:16Amanda Winkowski, where, where that has been done.
- 48:19And it's very difficult on the family, but when you've got the
- 48:24grit of the Greenbergs, I I don't think that would that
- 48:28would stop them, Mooney says. I'd love to know if Sam had a
- 48:33gym schedule or if this night was a one off.
- 48:37I don't know the answer to the question, but again, as a person
- 48:42who has avoided gyms until recently my entire life, I feel
- 48:49like, I feel like he didn't have a normal gym time.
- 48:55That's just me. That's just me.
- 49:00Miss Chivo's Dragon. Thanks for looking at those
- 49:02photos for me. Yeah, yeah.
- 49:04It's not a pleasant experience, I will tell you that.
- 49:07But but it is an experience that I that I'm deeply grateful to
- 49:13the Green Book Burgs for that. They agreed to that for me,
- 49:18Mooney says bonus check for that intern.
- 49:20Well, it's an unpaid position, unfortunately.
- 49:24Maybe, maybe I could get a gift card to the Olive Garden or to
- 49:30Qdoba, something like that. Maybe I'll think about it.
- 49:34Ruder says the intern needs a pay rise and a promotion.
- 49:41I'll consider it. OK, I'll consider.
- 49:44But yes, that is what do they call these?
- 49:48This is are these It's not a snifter.
- 49:51I'm I'm I'm searching for the word.
- 49:53But yes, that is that is a lot of water.
- 49:59Let's fill up the old cuparoo. That was that was a good intern.
- 50:05Very well done. Maybe I need to consider that
- 50:08person. Is it a moonshine jug?
- 50:11Well, out here, they're, they're more used by the Amish folks
- 50:17than anything, but, yeah, I, I certainly have never imbibed
- 50:24moonshine, so I wouldn't know. OK, All right, let's let me just
- 50:30keep on going here. Melissa, can you please review
- 50:35the Jennifer Selber connection movement timeline?
- 50:38Yeah, I, I, I mean, I kind of described it, but Jennifer
- 50:41Selber is describe to me as Josh Burrows right hand person.
- 50:48She is, I think right now she is his chief of staff.
- 50:52Let me let me look that up in house counsel.
- 50:56Let me see Jennifer Selber title.
- 51:02Oh, she's general counsel. Yeah, she was in the district
- 51:07attorney's office at the time that that the case was
- 51:13supposedly investigated by the DA's office.
- 51:18She was also one that was promoted up into the A G's
- 51:22office. And now she is general counsel
- 51:26and a close advisor to Mr. Shapiro.
- 51:32She is one that I think I don't, I don't know, she's kind of kind
- 51:36of the boogeyman for me on this one.
- 51:38I don't want to. I mean, is it possible that
- 51:42she's doing her best, that she has deep convictions?
- 51:49I guess possible. To me, it's.
- 51:52It's not probable, though. Yeah, not probable at all.
- 52:00Bring Ellen back up here. Let's see, the former trooper
- 52:10Proctor indicated the Emmy could be nudged to change her opinion
- 52:14on O'Keefe. It sure sounded like something
- 52:16not unfamiliar to him. You know what?
- 52:19That. That's a pretty darn good
- 52:21comment, Ohio Pom Mom. But I think it's the not.
- 52:25But I'm not contradicting you. That was a good comment.
- 52:29I also think that it is. I mean, we're talking about
- 52:32Proctor. This is the exception that
- 52:36proves the rule, right? Yeah.
- 52:43D9072, the judge calling me. Could that make it where the
- 52:47feds would take a look? Calling the Emmy?
- 52:51The judge calling the Emmy? Sure.
- 52:53Yeah. Possible.
- 52:58Yeah. Cassie brings up James
- 52:59Schwartzman was named a super lawyer, meaning he's in the top
- 53:015% of of attorneys in the state. It's kind of a big deal.
- 53:05Yeah. And my understanding is as a
- 53:06deputy US attorney, he was actually fired.
- 53:09He was let go. He did not leave that post of
- 53:12his own own volition, to my knowledge.
- 53:18Mooney says. I think the state is waiting out
- 53:20the Greenbergs. This is actually something I
- 53:22have discussed with the Greenbergs because.
- 53:24Yeah, you're right. I mean, Josh and Sandy are are,
- 53:28well, I don't want to say this. I don't want to say that.
- 53:35It just seems so unloving. But yes, I think I think they
- 53:41are. I think that's true.
- 53:43I think they're the only ones with standing and the Greenbergs
- 53:48and the city is like, you know what, we got enough time.
- 53:52I think you're right. Ree 888 has never seen me with
- 53:59short hair. That's funny.
- 54:00My hair for my whole life has been short.
- 54:02It's just been in the last year or so that I am growing it out.
- 54:07Yeah, so. And I'm looking forward to the
- 54:10short hair again. Archangel Morici says.
- 54:15Don't want to go there, but he doesn't look like the type to go
- 54:17to the gym that often. Yeah, No.
- 54:22Oh, it is called a growler. Thank you.
- 54:24This is this is a growler of water.
- 54:29Of water, folks. Water.
- 54:32That it. That is what I drink.
- 54:37Mooney. Not Mooney, Robin says.
- 54:40I always thought moonshine came in Mason jars.
- 54:45Scotch's mom. Is Sam still married to his
- 54:47wife? I heard that the wife left with
- 54:48their kids. So here's the thing.
- 54:52Sam did marry later. He married to somebody that I
- 54:59would say in, in my estimation, my opinion anyway, came from a
- 55:05family that was a little more that The Goldbergs were a little
- 55:11happier about than Ellen. But I would say that she has
- 55:19nothing to do with this and nor do their children.
- 55:24If anything, they are victims in this.
- 55:27And so I try to stay away from that.
- 55:30Now I've I've heard those rumors too.
- 55:34I've not been able to completely corroborate them, though.
- 55:39I've I've come close. I don't, I don't know.
- 55:42I don't know. Ohio Pom mom.
- 55:46You may need to explain the reference to Wanda.
- 55:48Oh, well, we are, we are searching for a fictitious
- 55:57producer that can push my buttons and toggle my switches
- 56:02and my levers and somebody I can blame when things go wrong or
- 56:07when I need to take a second take on something.
- 56:11And I asked for for ideas, and one of the ideas was Wanda.
- 56:18I didn't get the I didn't get it.
- 56:20It went right over my head. But Kimberly thought it was
- 56:24hilarious. A fish called Wanda.
- 56:27She thought that was hilarious. So that's where the name.
- 56:31Maybe Wanda will be hired as our permanent producer.
- 56:36Fur babyish Gavin. Has the boyfriend ever been
- 56:38charged with DV after this? To my knowledge, no.
- 56:43And I've looked, I haven't, I haven't found anything.
- 56:49Let's see. What is Mooney saying that
- 56:52Scotch's mom needs to ask? I can't.
- 56:54I can't see. OK, tell you what.
- 56:57Oh, we went long. We went long.
- 56:59So let us, if you have any other comments, definitely keep them
- 57:05coming. But for now, let us move on to
- 57:08three questions. It's three questions with Gavin.
- 57:17Wow. OK, in the three question
- 57:18segment, guys, I answer 3 questions that were sent in by
- 57:21you to three questions at gavinfish.com.
- 57:24Three questions at gavinfish.com spelled out THREE questions at
- 57:28gavinfish.com. I solemnly promise that I will
- 57:32answer these questions, and they can be difficult, thought
- 57:37provoking philosophical questions, or they can be what's
- 57:41my favorite color and anywhere in between.
- 57:43You do not need to be limited by how many questions you may send
- 57:47in. You may send in as many as you'd
- 57:48like. You may send them in one at a
- 57:50time or thousand at a time, doesn't matter to me.
- 57:52But I will be answering three at a time.
- 57:55Now, as I'm answering these questions, I would like you to
- 57:58think about how you would answer these questions.
- 58:00Yeah. I'm giving you a job.
- 58:01I'm giving you a job. It's cool.
- 58:03It's cool. Just I know that you want to
- 58:05relax, but no, we're working here.
- 58:06OK, I'd like to know what you think your answers would be to
- 58:11these three questions. And let us begin question number
- 58:15one. Does pineapple go on pizza?
- 58:19I will preface this by saying I'm a big fan of Neapolitan
- 58:23pizza. I remember what do, what do I
- 58:28sense? Yes, indeed.
- 58:35I remember the first time I ever did partake of the delightful
- 58:41Neapolitan pizza. It was in the village of La
- 58:45Falda, Argentina. It was a young man who had spent
- 58:49some time in Italy, came back and opened a restaurant and he
- 58:52made the most glorious Neapolitan pizza that was just
- 58:57so delicious. And I have been a big fan ever
- 58:59since. Having said that, I don't think
- 59:02we need to take things so seriously.
- 59:04It's bread and tomato sauce or some other kind of sauce and
- 59:09toppings, and that makes a pizza.
- 59:12And it is, it is wonderful. I've had pizzas all over the
- 59:15world, all different styles. So the answer is yeah, pineapple
- 59:22definitely goes on pizza if it floats your boat.
- 59:25In my case, my bloat, my boat is indeed floated my pineapple on
- 59:30pizza. I am a fan of the humble
- 59:33Hawaiian pizza. Question #2 Now I would say my
- 59:39favorite though is Neapolitan. I just love a good Neapolitan
- 59:42pizza. Oh dude.
- 59:45Where the bread is is cooked in a very high temperature pizza
- 59:50oven. It is.
- 59:52It is slightly burnt on the underside.
- 59:57I like there to be leopard spots on the cheese.
- 1:00:01I like it to be fresh mozzarella cheese.
- 1:00:05Like just came out of the cow and was turned into cheese
- 1:00:09today, kind of mozzarella. And I just love to sprinkle a
- 1:00:14little bit of flaky salt on it. I just love that it's like a
- 1:00:19nice MLT mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich on the mutton is
- 1:00:22nice and late. No, that is my favorite.
- 1:00:25However, the Hawaiian pizza is a delicious pizza.
- 1:00:28OK, question #2 just for fun, what animal would you like to
- 1:00:32come back as if reincarnation exists?
- 1:00:38Well, I would I, I suppose I would want to either be an apex
- 1:00:44predator or an animal that apex predators are like, Nah, I'm not
- 1:00:48going to mess with that. I don't want to be a rabbit.
- 1:00:51I don't want to be a squirrel, don't want to be like a, a goat,
- 1:00:56something that Steven Spielberg might feed to the T Rex that I
- 1:01:00don't want to be that kind of animal.
- 1:01:02So but I would love to be fast, feel the wind on my little furry
- 1:01:07face. So I would say my top 3 answers
- 1:01:11would be a polar bear because because I like the cold and and
- 1:01:17I like being tall #2 would be maybe some kind of Serengeti
- 1:01:26cat, probably a cheetah because I like the speeda and #3 maybe a
- 1:01:37horse. Now I know that horses are are
- 1:01:43technically prey animals, but they're so fast, man, So fast.
- 1:01:49Yeah, fun question. Question #3 I feel like we've
- 1:01:55had this question already. I think maybe I copied a
- 1:01:58question. Let's do this again.
- 1:01:59Anyway, if you could have any obscure, unusual, non
- 1:02:02monetizable talent. Yeah, we've done this question
- 1:02:04before. I, I accidentally brought this
- 1:02:06one in. What would it be?
- 1:02:09So let's just answer it and I'd love to hear your answers.
- 1:02:12Obscure, unusual, non monetizable talent.
- 1:02:23No, you know, my grandmother was a musician.
- 1:02:27Like she was a terrific musician man.
- 1:02:30And that that mostly came in the form of piano and organ.
- 1:02:35But she also was just awesome at everything.
- 1:02:38If it if it was a musical instrument, even your voice,
- 1:02:42which is a musical instrument, She was good at it.
- 1:02:47She played the spoons once, well, multiple times, but in my
- 1:02:53mind I remember her playing the spoons and man that was awesome.
- 1:03:02I think that could be monetized technically, but playing the
- 1:03:08spoons would be cool. Oh I had friends in elementary
- 1:03:13school that like they called it double jointedness where they
- 1:03:16could like tuck their thumb in. Weird.
- 1:03:19That seems pretty cool. Or maybe something as simple as
- 1:03:22being able to palm a basketball. That would be great.
- 1:03:27Never. I can barely palm a volleyball.
- 1:03:30I've got these tiny little hands.
- 1:03:31So yeah, I I don't know. Always dressing perfectly for
- 1:03:35the weather. Yeah, I I guess.
- 1:03:40I guess that would be my answer. Now while you guys think of your
- 1:03:43answers and you put them in the comment with AGF, by the way, so
- 1:03:46that I can see them, let us shall we just get into a few
- 1:03:51true crime headlines? Here we go.
- 1:03:53True crime headlines. POW.
- 1:04:02OK, join me if you will over at ye old Acrobat.
- 1:04:06This one coming from courttv.com.
- 1:04:08Ashley Buzzard's defense granted access to sealed warrants and
- 1:04:12murder case. This came out yesterday.
- 1:04:16Lompoc, CA. A permanent gag order will
- 1:04:20remain in effect during the remainder of criminal
- 1:04:23proceedings against the Vandenberg Village mother
- 1:04:25charged with murdering her nine year old daughter last fall.
- 1:04:29Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge Stephen Dunkel
- 1:04:32approved the order during a hearing for Ashley Buzzard, age
- 1:04:3540, on Wednesday morning in a lump poke courtroom.
- 1:04:39The ruling came after County Council representing the Santa
- 1:04:42Barbara County Sheriff's Office and the prosecution told the
- 1:04:45judge they were taking no position on the request.
- 1:04:49The defense requested the gag order be placed on the Santa
- 1:04:52Barbara County Sheriff's Office in an effort to prevent
- 1:04:54authorities from releasing additional details about the
- 1:04:56murder investigation involving Buzzard.
- 1:04:59I think this is probably grandstanding.
- 1:05:01I mean, the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Office certainly did
- 1:05:04put out a lot of information, but it was during the time where
- 1:05:07they were looking for Melody. They haven't done anything
- 1:05:11since. Come on.
- 1:05:11So grandstanding moving on this one from newsnation.com, our
- 1:05:17favorite celebrity lawyer, Alan Jackson sticks to the notion
- 1:05:21that Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder.
- 1:05:24Alan Jackson, Nick Reiner's former attorney, says he
- 1:05:27believes Reiner is not guilty of murder after being accused in
- 1:05:29the deaths of his parents. Robin Michelle Reiner.
- 1:05:32I will stick by that, the celebrity lawyer told Jesse
- 1:05:34Weber Live on Wednesday. I stand by it.
- 1:05:37I still believe it. I believed it then.
- 1:05:38I believe it now. Every day that goes by, I'm more
- 1:05:41solid in my belief that under the law, this is the this is his
- 1:05:45qualifier every single time that under the laws of this state, he
- 1:05:51is not guilty. Yeah.
- 1:05:55OK. So basically what you're saying
- 1:05:57is he's crazy, right? He's insane.
- 1:06:00My hope is the justice system sees its way clear to establish
- 1:06:03that and then blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:06:08So let's see. Jackson, when asked if the
- 1:06:12murderers could have been avoided, resoundingly said yes.
- 1:06:15He pointed towards mental health playing a huge role.
- 1:06:18Reiners mental health history has been spotlighted since he
- 1:06:20was charged in the killings. We talked about that a little
- 1:06:22bit yesterday. There's a lot to uncover, a lot
- 1:06:25of layers of the onion to peel back as it relates to, generally
- 1:06:28speaking, the mental health industry writ large here in the
- 1:06:30United States. Being very careful not to talk
- 1:06:33specifically about Mr. Nick Reiner, who is set to be
- 1:06:37arraigned on February 23rd. Moving on to our third and final
- 1:06:41headline of the day, no arrests in the death of Anna Kepner, 75
- 1:06:47days into the homicide investigation.
- 1:06:50This one brought to us bypeople.com Written by Chris
- 1:06:52Spargo On November 7th, 2025, the body of 18 year old Anna
- 1:06:57Kepner was discovered under a bed in her stateroom aboard the
- 1:07:00Carnival Horizon. An investigation was immediately
- 1:07:04launched and agents with the Federal Bureau of Investigation
- 1:07:06were waiting for the cruise ship when it docked in Miami, FL. 2
- 1:07:09days after a week at sea. Two days later, after a week at
- 1:07:13sea, it has now been 75 days since that investigation began
- 1:07:17and still there have been no arrests made and or charges
- 1:07:20filed in the case. There's also been no information
- 1:07:23or updates regarding the investigation shared by local
- 1:07:26police, federal agents and local, state or federal
- 1:07:29prosecutors regarding the case. What is known about the incident
- 1:07:33comes almost entirely from court documents previously obtained by
- 1:07:37PEOPLE that were filed by the parents of Anna's 16 year old
- 1:07:40step brother who shared a room with her on that trip.
- 1:07:44And we understand that he is the lead suspect in this case, but
- 1:07:49we haven't heard anything and the FBI is notorious for not
- 1:07:54leaking information. Those are your headlines.
- 1:07:58Let's check to see what you guys have been saying as your answers
- 1:08:03to our three questions segment. Let's check this out.
- 1:08:09Doo Doo, Doo, Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo.
- 1:08:14Fur Babyish loves fish. Well, thank you.
- 1:08:18That's awesome, Robin says. How about a green olive and a
- 1:08:22black olive pizza? Nom, nom, nom.
- 1:08:24Yeah, I'm in. I'm in.
- 1:08:27Yes. Love them.
- 1:08:29Neapolitan pizza is the most simple and original pizza.
- 1:08:36It's this. It is basically a thin crust.
- 1:08:40It is tomato sauce and it is fresh Buffalo mozzarella cheese.
- 1:08:46It is baked usually around 900°F, five ish, 100°C, and it
- 1:08:54takes about 60 seconds, maybe 90 seconds to bake.
- 1:08:58And it is delicioso, man. It is the it's simple and it's
- 1:09:05delicious. That's what that is.
- 1:09:08Melissa are the major hitters. Dateline, 2020, etcetera.
- 1:09:12Still going to hold off on doing a segment due to no finality.
- 1:09:15I hope that makes sense. Typically they do, yes.
- 1:09:18Now keep in mind that the documentary that was on Hulu,
- 1:09:22The Death in Apartment 6O3, that was an ABC 2020 production.
- 1:09:30So 2020 has done something thanks to the heroic and
- 1:09:35herculean efforts of Laura Diamond Dateline.
- 1:09:42To my knowledge. Now I know a Dateline producer
- 1:09:45that has been following this. Every time we need to go
- 1:09:48somewhere for this, she's there. So I think they probably are
- 1:09:52holding off until there's some sort of resolution.
- 1:09:55I think 2020 outside of that documentary probably will too.
- 1:09:59Makes perfect sense. Good question.
- 1:10:02Continuing on down the line, what do we got?
- 1:10:05Garth Bennett says. I would want to come back as my
- 1:10:07Chihuahua. That I don't know.
- 1:10:17Chihuahuas have creepy hands. I don't know.
- 1:10:21I like Chihuahuas, but they do have kind of creepy hands,
- 1:10:24right? But I see what you're saying.
- 1:10:27Want to just hang out in a house?
- 1:10:29Yeah dude, a a chill relax dog would be a good choice.
- 1:10:34Yes, Miss Chivo's dragon says #1 maybe Now I have to remind
- 1:10:40myself the questions. Let's see, does pineapple go on
- 1:10:44pizza #1 maybe. What animal would you like to
- 1:10:48come back as if reincarnation exists A Carolina Wren.
- 1:10:53And what is the obscure, unusual, non monetizable talent
- 1:10:58that you would want to have if you could have it?
- 1:11:01And miss Chivas Dragon says hambone.
- 1:11:04Nice. I like it.
- 1:11:06I like it. All right, guys, that is the end
- 1:11:10of our live stream, our time together this Thursday evening.
- 1:11:14Oh, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait.
- 1:11:15One more question coming in. I will.
- 1:11:16I'll allow it. I'll allow it from Melissa.
- 1:11:20Last one I promise is the Chester County DA's office, one
- 1:11:22of the agencies being investigated.
- 1:11:26I have not heard anything about an investigation into the
- 1:11:31Chester County DA's office. So I, I don't know, I don't
- 1:11:36know. Great question.
- 1:11:37All right, guys, remember that you can always reach out to me
- 1:11:40on my website. I already showed you guys that.
- 1:11:43But also, while you're on the website, I encourage you,

- 1:12:02And the opinion piece I did on Josh Shapiro is another good
- 1:12:06one. I invite you to do that.
