  Speaker 2: where she hit the victim with a rock and undressed her.
• 3:25

• 3:28
  Speaker 2: witnesses told police that the defendants urinated on the five
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: year old and ripped one of her braids out. First
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: responders took her to the Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital,

  Speaker 2: judge to release the ten year old to her family.

  Speaker 2: She also argued that putting an ankle monitor on her
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: would cause a potential safety issue.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: If she has put on inkle monitor, that will become

  Speaker 3: a potential safety risk to her and her family.

  Speaker 2: The judge noted the ten year old's parents were not
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: present in court with her. A female family member accompanied
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: the child of the hearing, but the exact relationship to
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the victim is unclear. Sweeny disagreed with the defense's argument
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: on home confinement and ankle monitoring, but did approve their
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: request for a mental competency evaluation.
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: One is the serious nature of these charges. Secondly, and
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: I'm just gonna note this for the record, we don't
• 4:57

• 5:34
  Speaker 5: a dozen former residents, calling the institution quote a real

• 5:47
  Speaker 5: to protect inflicted harm and.
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: Trauma on these young women.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: This wasn't care, it was control.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: It wasn't shelter, it was imprisonment. Representing between thirteen and
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: fifteen women who lived at Vista Maria at different times,
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: Jafar says their stories are strikingly similar. Over the years,
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: guards allegedly forced girls to fight each other, cut off
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: their clothes with scissors, and ordered them to sleep naked
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: under surveillance cameras, while claiming it was for their protection.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: Some were allegedly sexually assaulted or invited to run away
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: and live with guards.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: These girls were not residents, they were child vulnerable prisoners.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Jafar revealing that Vista Maria, which described itself as a
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: nonprofit dedicated to quote healing and empowering vulnerable youth was
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: very well funded. According to financial disclosures, The facility ended
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty four with over sixty million dollars in net assets.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Dearborn Heights Police chief Ahmed Haidar says he's glad the
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: place is closing.
• 6:47
  Speaker 8: Five hundred calls for services is insane. We don't the
• 6:51
  Speaker 8: police should never ever respond to a home or a
• 6:54
  Speaker 8: business in the city of Different Heights five hundred times
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: in one year.
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: Attorney Jaffar says his firm finalizing interviews with former residents
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: and expects to file suit within sixty days. The allegations
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: come just weeks after Vista Maria announced it would end
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: its residential youth program by December nineteenth, citing its inability
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: to provide the psychiatric level of care most girls now require.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: The facility, which traces its roots to eighteen eighty three,
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: plans to continue other operations like foster care and juvenile
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: justice services, but all one hundred and fifty four residential
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: staffers will be laid off. Jafar says most of the
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: women he represents never met one another, yet they recounted
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: the same acts of abuse and named some of the
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: same guards. He compared the consistency of their stories to
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: puzzle pieces. Claims include being forced to fight until one
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: lost consciousness, beaten by staff, and sexually assaulted by male
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: employees who claimed to be their protectors. While Vista Maria's
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: board maintains that it provided decades of service to vulnerable youth,
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: both Ja'far and Haydar described the facilities closure as overdue.
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: Vista Maria leadership has claimed the decision to shut the
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: program down was driven by changing mental health needs, not
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: the mounting scandal.
• 8:08
  Speaker 7: I'm nicole pardon. Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: called on former Prince Andrew now referred to as Andrew
• 8:15
  Speaker 7: Montbatten Windsor, to answer questions about his connection to Jeffrey Epstein.
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: Powerful individuals have escaped justice for far too long, stated
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: Representative Robert Garcia, the committee's ranking member. He went on
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: to say, now former Prince Andrew has a chance to
• 8:33
  Speaker 7: be honest and bring justice to the victims. Oversight Democrats
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: are committed to ensuring accountability and transparency for those affected
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: by Epstein and his associates. Andrew lost his royal titles
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: at the hands of his brother, King Charles due to
• 8:49
  Speaker 7: his links with Epstein, who died in custody while facing
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: federal charges for sex trafficking in twenty nineteen. In a
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: letter addressed to Andrew, Committee Democrats noted your friendship with
• 9:01
  Speaker 7: mister Epstein reportedly began in nineteen ninety nine and continued
• 9:05
  Speaker 7: after his two thousand and eight conviction for trafficking minors
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: for sex. They requested that he participate in a transcribed
• 9:13
  Speaker 7: interview to shed light on the crimes associated with Epstein's accomplices.
• 9:18
  Speaker 7: The letter also urged Andrew to respond by November twenty,
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: emphasizing the seriousness and urgency of the matter. The Epstein
• 9:25
  Speaker 7: investigation has sparked significant political controversy, particularly because of his
• 9:31
  Speaker 7: associations with influential figures. Andrew, the third child of Queen Elizabeth,
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: was named in a twenty fifteen lawsuit by Virginia Gouffrey,
• 9:40
  Speaker 7: who alleged she was trafficked to him when she was
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: just seventeen. In twenty twenty one, she filed a lawsuit
• 9:47
  Speaker 7: against Andrew, who has consistently denied any allegations of misconduct.
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: After hearing from Epstein's victims and through the recent public
• 9:56
  Speaker 7: disclosure of documents. It's crucial for Andrew to cooperate with
• 10:00
  Speaker 7: with ongoing investigations, said representative Submarenium from Virginia. If he
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: is innocent, he has an opportunity to clear his name.
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: If not, our inquiry will reveal the truth and the
• 10:12
  Speaker 7: victims will finally see the justice they deserve. The Royal
• 10:15
  Speaker 7: Family's decision to strip Andrew of his titles indicates there
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: is more to this narrative. Epstein's death by suicide in
• 10:23
  Speaker 7: a New York jail has been surrounded by significant debate
• 10:27
  Speaker 7: and speculation. Glenne Maxwell, a co conspirator of Epstein who
• 10:31
  Speaker 7: also has ties to Andrew, is currently serving a twenty
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: year sentence for her role in child sex trafficking.
• 10:39
  Speaker 9: I'm Jennifer Gould. What should have been a simple drive
• 10:42
  Speaker 9: through transaction ended in a terrifying armed confrontation when a
• 10:47
  Speaker 9: Florida MacDonald's worker allegedly traded a mic Chicken order for
• 10:52
  Speaker 9: five count of aggravated assault with a firearm. This absurd
• 10:57
  Speaker 9: escalation unfolded at approximately thirty in the morning at the
• 11:01
  Speaker 9: northwest one hundred and eighty third Street location in Miami Gardens.
• 11:06
  Speaker 9: Victim Chayton Timmins spoke to WPLG ten News.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: I told him, I said, listen, his mama.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Want to make make griddles of met chickie because this might.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Be aconfriend of McDonald's. I don't play any type of games.
• 11:20
  Speaker 9: The unsettling situation began with an agonizing weight. Timmins and
• 11:25
  Speaker 9: her family, including her pregnant god daughter and one year
• 11:29
  Speaker 9: old child, had been held up for over an hour
• 11:32
  Speaker 9: for their pre ordered food. According to Timmins, when they
• 11:37
  Speaker 9: finally engaged with cashier Anthony Mark Keith Elliott, the Third,
• 11:42
  Speaker 9: the nineteen year old responded with a mcflurry of rage
• 11:46
  Speaker 9: and hostile defiance. Miami Gardens Police reports detail how the
• 11:50
  Speaker 9: argument quickly boiled over, transitioning from verbal dispute to physical
• 11:56
  Speaker 9: menace when Elliott allegedly stepped from the wind and flashed
• 12:01
  Speaker 9: a handgun concealed in his waistband. Ignoring the threat, Timmins
• 12:06
  Speaker 9: and her family continued to challenge the worker's stubborn attitude.
• 12:11
  Speaker 9: That defiance allegedly caused Elliott to ratchet up the violence.
• 12:16
  Speaker 9: He drew the silver handgun with a black grip and
• 12:19
  Speaker 9: pointed it directly at the occupants of the car, including
• 12:23
  Speaker 9: the toddler, but Timmins, a previous shooting victim, was instantly
• 12:29
  Speaker 9: ready for US standoff. Instead of backing down, she immediately
• 12:34
  Speaker 9: called police, declaring that officers needed to arrive quickly because
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: the situation was speeding towards a fatal conclusion. Timmins later
• 12:44
  Speaker 9: told reporters that the cashier quote must have wanted a
• 12:48
  Speaker 9: death wish end quote, adding a stark, unforgettable pun to
• 12:52
  Speaker 9: the unfolding drama. She believed the cashier must have been
• 12:57
  Speaker 9: planning a quote unquote MC funeral. The quick response of
• 13:01
  Speaker 9: law enforcement led to the employees swift arrest. Confronted by officers,
• 13:07
  Speaker 9: Elliott reportedly confessed to pulling the weapon and identified the
• 13:12
  Speaker 9: location where he had stored the firearm inside the restaurant,
• 13:17
  Speaker 9: a detail corroborated by the store manager. The gun recovered
• 13:22
  Speaker 9: matched the description given by the victims. Elliott, a Miami resident,
• 13:27
  Speaker 9: was subsequently charged with five counts of aggravated assault with
• 13:31
  Speaker 9: a firearm and was released after posting a one thousand
• 13:35
  Speaker 9: dollars bond. No word if he has any priors or
• 13:39
  Speaker 9: if he is still employed after all. The mid drama
