- 0:05Speaker 1: Convicted child murderer Lorie Vallo has made a startling claim
- 0:09Speaker 1: in a jail house phone call with her estranged son, Vala,
- 0:13Speaker 1: who was sentenced to life in prison for the murders
- 0:16Speaker 1: of her children, Tylee Ryan and Joshua jj Vallo alleges
- 0:20Speaker 1: that her daughter was responsible for Jjy's death and then
- 0:25Speaker 1: took her own life. The interview with her son, Kolbe Ryan,
- 0:28Speaker 1: as the first time the fifty one year old had
- 0:30Speaker 1: been heard from publicly since she was sentenced. In twenty
- 0:33Speaker 1: twenty three. Colby Ryan posted the exchange with his mother
- 0:37Speaker 1: on his podcast called The Scar Wars. Here's part of
- 0:40Speaker 1: that call.
- 0:41Speaker 2: And what does she holding him down too long?
- 0:44Speaker 1: And you realized afterwards what she had done?
- 0:47Speaker 2: What does she kind of running to me and told
- 0:50Speaker 2: me what she had done?
- 0:52Speaker 3: Great?
- 0:53Speaker 2: But it was an accident.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Do you not see?
- 0:56Speaker 2: I would have told police I did it to see
- 1:01Speaker 2: because you know.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Kolbe Ryan, who had not spoken to his mother in
- 1:05Speaker 1: four years, expressed disbelief and anger at Valo's claims. He
- 1:10Speaker 1: emphasized that Tylie would never harm her brother and that
- 1:13Speaker 1: the evidence suggests a much more sinister scenario. Prosecutors revealed
- 1:19Speaker 1: that Tyler died in September of twenty nineteen, two weeks
- 1:22Speaker 1: before JJ, whose body was found wrapped in plastic and
- 1:26Speaker 1: duct tape in June of twenty twenty on the property
- 1:30Speaker 1: of Valo's husband, Chad Dave Bell, a self proclaimed doomsday prophet.
- 1:35Speaker 1: Valo's descent into religious zelotry, heavily influenced by da Bell,
- 1:40Speaker 1: had been a focal point of the case. They were
- 1:42Speaker 1: reportedly convinced that the second Coming of Christ was imminent
- 1:46Speaker 1: and that only one hundred and forty four thousand people
- 1:50Speaker 1: could be saved. Valo's friends noted that she believed her
- 1:53Speaker 1: children were dark and often referred to them as zombies.
- 1:57Speaker 1: This disturbing ideology contributed to a web of manipulation and
- 2:03Speaker 1: denial surrounding the children's deaths. Throughout the call, the so
- 2:06Speaker 1: called Colt Mom maintained that she is on a divine mission,
- 2:10Speaker 1: asserting that her case has been blown out of proportion
- 2:12Speaker 1: by the media. Colby, though, countered his mom's version of
- 2:16Speaker 1: events and broke down while recounting the brutal treatment of
- 2:20Speaker 1: Tyley's remains, which had been burned before burial, with some
- 2:25Speaker 1: parts still missing. Despite his pain, Colby expressed forgiveness, but
- 2:30Speaker 1: firmly denied any possibility of a reconciliation with his mother.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Prior to this new confession, Valo claimed that her children's
- 2:38Speaker 1: deaths were accidental and due to fatal side effects of medications.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Valo remains behind bars facing additional charges in Arizona related
- 2:48Speaker 1: to the death of her fourth husband and the attempted
- 2:51Speaker 1: murder of her niece's ex husband. That trial is expected
- 2:55Speaker 1: to begin in April of twenty twenty five.
- 2:59Speaker 2: N CA and Idaho man has been sentenced to life
- 3:03Speaker 2: in prison for the murder of a homeless man he
- 3:06Speaker 2: had offered to help. Justin Fresner and his friend Cameron Russell,
- 3:11Speaker 2: both homeless, accepted a kind gesture from Dallas Brower, who
- 3:15Speaker 2: later took them to ee Hop for breakfast. However, things
- 3:19Speaker 2: took a dark turn when Brower offered them marijuana laced
- 3:23Speaker 2: with finoneil, causing them to fall asleep. Cameron woke up
- 3:27Speaker 2: to find his best friend being stabbed by Brower, who
- 3:31Speaker 2: showed no remorse during the attack. The surviving man said
- 3:35Speaker 2: the two had been huddled up at a bus stop
- 3:37Speaker 2: when Brower approached the men and asked if they wanted
- 3:40Speaker 2: to go for a hot breakfast at eye hop, Brower
- 3:44Speaker 2: told police he started thinking the men should die for
- 3:47Speaker 2: all the bad things they had done. He said during
- 3:50Speaker 2: breakfast he felt the urge to kill them, and then
- 3:53Speaker 2: during the attack, he said he felt like he was
- 3:56Speaker 2: having an out of body experience. Despite hours claims of
- 4:01Speaker 2: hallucinations and drug induced violence, the court found him guilty
- 4:05Speaker 2: of first degree murder and aggravated assault. Freisner's body was
- 4:09Speaker 2: found near the airport, with a corner reporting multiple stab
- 4:13Speaker 2: wounds as his cause of death. Russell, who survived the attack,
- 4:17Speaker 2: was deeply traumatized by the incident and spoke out about
- 4:20Speaker 2: the loss of his dear friend. During the sentencing, the
- 4:23Speaker 2: judge handed Brauer a life sentence with twenty five years fixed,
- 4:28Speaker 2: taking into account the gravity of the crimes committed. The
- 4:31Speaker 2: victim's families also shared their pain and lost to the court,
- 4:35Speaker 2: emphasizing the impact of Brower's action on their lives, saying,
- 4:39Speaker 2: maybe he was homeless, but he was still our beloved
- 4:43Speaker 2: family member.

- 4:48Speaker 3: moment police officers bring a five year old girl home
- 4:50Speaker 3: after a stranger finds her wandering alone on a busy road.
- 4:54Speaker 3: The kindergartener at Powder Springs Elementary School had been put
- 4:57Speaker 3: on the wrong school bus and then dropped off at
- 4:59Speaker 3: the wrong stop miles away from home. The girl's grandmother,
- 5:03Speaker 3: Michelle Faine, was away but saw the scene unfold on
- 5:05Speaker 3: her phone from the video camera. Quote, I was on
- 5:08Speaker 3: my way back to Atlanta and I heard the doorbell ring.
- 5:11Speaker 3: I saw a police officer with my granddaughter in the porch.
- 5:13Speaker 3: She tells Waga. The bus driver should be fired.
- 5:16Speaker 2: He has our precious cargo with him. Staff like they're yours?
- 5:19Speaker 2: What would you do with yours? Would you just leave
- 5:21Speaker 2: yours out? There? No need to make sure they got
- 5:23Speaker 2: back to the school.
- 5:24Speaker 3: A man had noticed the child wandering alone and called
- 5:26Speaker 3: the police, who brought her back home safely. Her mother,
- 5:29Speaker 3: who was frantically searching from her got the news moments
- 5:32Speaker 3: before arriving home. The family is outraged, demanding accountability for
- 5:36Speaker 3: what they see as gross negligence by the school and
- 5:39Speaker 3: the bus driver. The girl's father, Ashton Bailey, tells Waga, quote,
- 5:43Speaker 3: my daughter could have been hit by a car or
- 5:45Speaker 3: picked up by someone. Thank god none of that happened.
- 5:48Speaker 3: Now the family is calling for the bus driver's immediate termination.
- 5:51Speaker 3: They want to ensure this doesn't happen to any other child.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Bailey adds quote that thought of her out there by herself,
- 5:57Speaker 3: anything could have happened. We need to make sure these
- 5:59Speaker 3: drivers follow the rules. The Cobb County School District is apologizing,
