  Speaker 1: Hello everybody. I'm happy Friday the thirteenth. I know a
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: lot of people who are superstitious and think Friday the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: thirteenth is a bad thing, but in our family it's
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: not because my older son, Jeffa, was born on the
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: thirteenth and he likes Friday the thirteen, so it's a
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: good one for us. So I hope it's a good
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: one for all of you, and I hope everyone watching
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: now and those watching later, I hope you've had a
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: good week and are ready for the weekend. I know
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I am looking forward to this much deserved weekend and
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I get to see my bestie on Sunday and have
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: cocktails and go to a craft show. It's a holiday
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: craft show, so I guess we're going to get into
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: the holiday spirit a little early. I am Terry True
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Crime and welcome to Midday Missing, where I cover current
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: missing person cases. I first want to thank everyone for
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: their understanding on me postponing Monday's live stream until today.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I really hated that I had to do it, but
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: had a family situation and wasn't able to join. So
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: we are here today on a Friday, And for those
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: of you that are new here, currently True Crime and
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Wine Time Productions produces the podcast True Crime and Wine Time,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: The Hey Host show, the investigation into the disappearance of
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Chase Slackey, Night Court, Women on Death Row, of course,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Midday Missing, and coming soon, we have my new series
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: that will drop for the general public on October first.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: For our channel members you will get it on September
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: twenty fourth. So I thought I would play a little
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: quick video for you guys. Okay, just a quick little
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: sneak peek on that. So Dearest, Mother's Darkest Secrets is coming,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and I will tell you to date the darkest, most
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: challenging series I've ever been involved in. I think JT,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: being involved with Active Shooter probably also feels that way
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: about Active Shooter. It's very dark. But I also think
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: it's something that needs to be shared more because I
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: thought there was going to be a couple of cases
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of mothers who killed their children, and guys, I'm shocked
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: at the number of cases there are to cover and
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: how many have to do with mental illness. So I
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: think it's something that is very important for us to
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: talk about. But today we are talking about Madelina, and
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Madelina is an adorable twelve year old girl, and I
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: am going to try to share her picture. Guys. Remember,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I am trying to get better at this. Let's see
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: how I did. I think I'm almost there. Got it?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: How about that Terry was able to get it done? So.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Mad Alina Kojakari was a twelve year old student at
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Bailey Middle School in Cornelias, North Carolina. She vanished without
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: a trace in twenty twenty two, and her disappearance is
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: perplexing and troubling, and guys, it's one that still leaves
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: my head spinning. So the last confirmed sighting of Madelina
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: was on November twenty first, twenty twenty two, when she
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: was captured on surveillance footage getting off the school bus
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: near her home. Now, this occurred just days before school
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: went on Thanksgiving break. Despite this being the last time
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: anyone saw her, it would take nearly three weeks for
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: her disappearance to be reported to authorities. Guys, this is
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: a delay that has drawn significant scrutiny and criticism. And
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to tell you leaves me wanting to say,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: what in the hell how can a child be missing
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: for three weeks before someone reports her missing? Okay, Madelina's mother,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Diana Kojakari, and her stepfather, Christopher Palmitter, were living with
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Madelina at the time of her disappearance. However, neither parent
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: reported her missing immediately. Okay, a fact that all the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: investigators are wondering what the hell? Like me, guys, The
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: first sign of concern came from school officials when Madelina
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: failed to show up so on December fifteenth, after being
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: summoned to the school for a meeting, Diana, Madelina's mother,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: finally admitted that her daughter had been missing four weeks. Guys,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: what in the hell? Somebody please tell me what in
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the hell? Because I don't understand. I don't I'm not
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: trying to blame anyone, but I am going to tell
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: you that makes you makes me very suspicious of the parents.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Because my child doesn't come home from school one day,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I'm calling the police that day. I'm not waiting a
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: couple weeks, and I'm not waiting until the school questions
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: me on where my daughter's been to decide to confess. Okay. Now,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: this delay in reporting was a huge misstep according to
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: law enforcement, and it's like, yeah, no doubt, right, Cornelia's
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: police Chief David Thompson has described the case as frustrating,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: particularly because of lost time made the search for Madelina
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: even more difficult than a missing person case already is sorry, guys.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Thompson expressed his concern over the delay and stating and
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I quote, I don't want anybody to think that after
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: three weeks Diana had this. Okay, well, it's time highlighting
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the inconsistencies in her comments and behaviors. Okay, guys, really
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: three weeks? Yeah, that's the problem. Once the authorities were notified,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: as search of their home was quickly organized. Okay. During
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the search, officers found that some of Madaline's p's personal belongings,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: including clothes and her backpack, were missing, which raised immediate
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: concerns that she might have been taken or had run away. Guys,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I've said this before, Even if you think your child
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: ran away, you call the damn police. There are perverts
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: and bad people all over the place. They are just
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: looking for that prime person, and a runaway who's an
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: adorable twelve year old little girl is a prime target.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: So even if you think your child ran away, you
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: call the damn cops. And if they tell you, oh,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: you need to wait. You say no, it's a twelve
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: year old child. And if they so don't want to
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: listen to them, tell them to call me. I'll be
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: more than happy to come down. So now with me
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: saying that the family has not said she ran away,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: that was just police speculation because her backpack and clothes
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: were gone. Now, investigators were left a little to go on,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: but they say the circumstances of her disappearance, combined with
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: the parent's actions, made them primary suspects. The delay in
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: reporting Madelina missing and her belonging, and the conflicting stories
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that the mother and stepfather told. Okay, guys, that is
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a problem to me. I can't. I just can't. But anyway,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: In December of twenty twenty two, Diana Kojacari and Christopher
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Palmeter were both arrested and charged with failing to report
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: a missing child, which, as it should be, is a
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: felony under North Carolina law. Thank you, police officers. The
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: arrest marked a turning point in the investigation, but it
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: also revealed the strained relationship between the two parents. Each
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: immediately began pointing fingers at the other, offering conflicting accounts
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: of what might have happened to Maddelina. Okay, guys, I'm
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: going to tell you this next couple of things really
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: makes my blood boil. I'm glad they were arrested and
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: held accountable. I'm not okay with what I'm about to
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: tell you. Diana played guilty to the charges. She was
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: sentenced to six to seventeen months in prison. But guys,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: because she spent five hundred and twenty days in Joel
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: awaiting trial, she was released without having to serve additional time. Please,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: somebody explained to me how that is enough time when
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the child is still missing. So on the other hand, Palmetter,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: who pleaded not guilty, was given thirty months of supervised probation. Yeah,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you heard me, probation. Following his conviction, he filed for
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: divorce from Diana in June of twenty twenty four, a
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: move that made, you know, distance him father from the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: case and the allegations against him. Now, the relationship between
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Diane and Palmetter was fraught with a tension, and this
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: was evident in the conflicting narratives they provided to investigators.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Palmetter claimed that Diana had sent Maldalena to live with
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: relatives in moldalvo I claim that Diana's family vehemently denied
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: instead Diana's relatives of cues Palmetter of selling Madelina for money,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: and guys, this is that's a shocking allegation that of
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: course added another layer of complexity to an already screwed
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: up case. Now, these conflicting stories have only muddied the
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: waters feather, making it difficult for investigators to determine the truth,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and the lack of cooperation between the two parents and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: their continued blame game have left everybody, including authorities, with
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: more answers than questions. Now, despite the extensive search and
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: numerous tips from the public, there have been no substantial
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: leads in locating Maldalena. Now, the Cornelius Police Department, along
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: with other law enforcement agencies, are continuing to investigate. But guys,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: they've admitted the trail has gone cold. The delay in
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: the parents reporting her disappearance, coupled with their conflicting stories,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: has made this almost impossible. And guys, that's why I
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: don't think seventeen months in prison sentence was enough. She
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: spent five hundred and twenty days and he got probation.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry why can't we hold them there until they
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: tell the truth. Somebody tell me that's my justice. I
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: want a law tarry true crime's law. If you refuse
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: to cooperate with the police, or if you refuse to
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: tell that your child's missing, you should sit your happy
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: ass in jail until you're ready to talk. Just my
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: two cents, Just my two cents. But in an effort
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: to reignite the investigation and encourage new leads, on August
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: twenty ninth of this year, Governor Roy Cooper's Offers announced
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: a twenty five thousand dollars reward for information leading to
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Madaline's whereabouts. Guys, this is a big deal. They want
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: to keep this case in the media's attention and they
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: want you to call in if you have any information. Now,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna warn you, guys, I'm about to probably piss
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: all of you off. Sorry, guys, my nose is itching
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: today because this pisses me off. After she was released, Diana,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: are you ready for this, there was talk that they
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: were going to deport her back to Maldova, where she
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: had originally come from on a green card. However, she
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: left the United States before any deportation could be initiated,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: and according to Facebook posts, she was reportedly headed to Romania,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: a move that feather jacks up this case. Okay. US
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: authorities have said that there was nothing they could do
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: to prevent her from leaving the country once she was released. Okay, guys,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: tell me why she's out of jail, especially allowed to
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: leave the country when one of the theories is maybe
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: she sent Madelina to Maldova. I mean, guys, I hope
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: in my heart that that is where she is. I
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: hope she was sent to live with family and that
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: something tragic hasn't happened to her. But why can't you
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: keep her in the US until her child is found
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: when she didn't report her missing anybody? Anybody? I mean,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I'm looking around like somebody's going to give me an
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: answer right now. Christopher Helmeter has returned to Cornelius is
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: reportedly trying to resume his life. He is back in
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the home he once shared with Madelina and Diana. But guys,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you people still are keeping an
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: eye on him and the community is very skeptical of him.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to say I agree with them because
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: it is suspicious. Even if you were married to her, Diana,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: and you thought she was a tyrant, you know, and
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you didn't want to piss your wife off. Guess what
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: your stepdaughter was missing? You could have called the cops
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: behind your wife's back, unless, of course, you had something
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: to do with it, just saying my opinion only, Sir,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I hope that's not the case. But you've told different stories,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: You've lied, so what else are we supposed to think? So,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: the disappearance of Madelina ko Jakari is deeply frustrating for
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: everyone involved. And I'm going to tell you I am
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: deeply frustrated. I am pissed off that mom only spent
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: five hundred and twenty days in jail and was able
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: to leave the country. So if they find her remains,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think Romania has an extradition policy, but I'm
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: going to have to look into that. I did not
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: have time to look into that, but it concerns me.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Now all of the community is still looking for a resolution.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Law enforcement wants to find her, but they say the
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: likelihood diminishes every day. Guys. As a mom, I can't
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I can't understand. I mean, yeah, they were going to
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: threaten to deport you, but they hadn't done it yet.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: If my daughter truly went missing and I had nothing
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: to do with it, you would have to drag me
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: to the airport to deport me. I would want to
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: stay in the country, in the city where my daughter
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: went missing. Now, if I needed to move out of
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: the city because it was too much to handle, I
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: would still want to be close enough to go and
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: look for her. Now, if it had been five years,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: I can understand maybe moving away. We're talking less than
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: two years, lady. It's a problem for me. Okay. Authorities
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: are remaining village and the recent reward has rekindled some
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: hope that someone somewhere might come forward with information that
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: could give answers. It's a total mystery, and it is
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: a reminder that I want to remind every one. Do
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: not delay reporting a loved one missing. Every second you
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: delay causes the case to be harder to solve. Okay.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: It leads to so many problems, and then conflicting stories,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: changing stories by the parents makes it almost impossible. And
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: I agree with what someone said in the comments that
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: maybe they did that intentionally. I agree. I can't help
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: but think they didn't report her because they wanted the
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: case to go cold. I truly hope and I'm going
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: to tell you, I truly hope she was sent to
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Maldova and that she is alive and unharmed there, and
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: I want to tell family members there if she is there,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: please call the authorities in Cornelius and tell them. Law
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: enforcement in the community to deserves to know that she's okay.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: If she was sent there, Mom's out of the country.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think they can do anything to her now,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: so why not tell You can call them anonymously, Okay.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: If you have any information regarding Maldalena Kachakori, please call
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: seven oh four eight nine to two seven seven seven three.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Because guys, Mom's not calling to check. And if Mom's
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: not calling the police all the time to find out
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: what's going on with the case, in my heart of hearts,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: tells me she knows something. I want to let that
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: sip for a second. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm becoming
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: cyn uncle. I don't know, but this little girl, look
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: at that face. She is precious and we need to
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: know what happened to her. Okay. Now, that is my
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: only case today, and I do have a palate cleanser.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: But I have to say it is compliments of a
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: very good friend of mine who created this adorable character
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and allowed me he writes stories about Celery Stock. Oh,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: someone says in our chat Maldova does not have a
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: bilateral extradition or mutual legal assistance treaty with the United States.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't think they did so, even more, why they
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: need to tell? And also if she was sent out
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: of the country, didn't you have to have a passport
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: or did they get a fake passport? I don't know.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I have so many questions. I really hope she's there now.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Let me introduce you to Celery Stock. Solery Stock, like
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: I said, is a character written by my friend who
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: is a writer, and you are going to love this
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Celery Stock. In this secret vineyard and a quaint meadow,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: not far from a bustling village, there lived a charming
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: bunny named Celery Stock. She was as fluffy as a cloud,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: with snow white fur and twinkling eyes that held a
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: world of curiosity. Celery Stock had many interests, nibbling on
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: fresh vegetables, hopping through flower filled filled and exploring hidden
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: nooks of the forest. But there was one thing she
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: loved more than anything else. Wine. Yes, celery Stock, that's
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: why we are good friends. You see, celery Stock was
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: not your average bunny. She had a refined taste and
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: a nose for the finer things in life. Every evening,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: after a long day of exploring, sorry Stock would slip
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: away to a secret spot only she knew about, a
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: hidden vineyard nestled at the edge of the meadow. The
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: vineyard belonged to a kind old wine maker who had
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: a soft for the curious little bunny. He had discovered
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: her one evening sniffing around the grapevines, her nose twitching
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: in delight. Instead of showing her away, the winemaker welcomed
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: celery Stock and offered her her tiny glass of his
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: finest wine. To his surprise, the bunny took a delicate
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: sip and her eyes lit up with pure joy. Same,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: celery Stock, that is why you are my favorite bunny
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: in the world. From that day on, celery Stock would
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: visit the vineyard regularly. The winemaker would pour her a
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: small glass of his latest creation, and they would sit
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: together under the stars, enjoying the peacefulness of the evening.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Celery Stock particularly loved the sweet fruity wines, and the
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: winemaker often saved the best bottles just for her. Mister winemaker,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: we need to become friends because I need you to
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: save the wine for me. After the last seven days,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I deserve a case, just saying. One evening, a celery
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Stock was sipping her wine and nibbling on a fresh
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: selery stalk. Because guys, even a bunny with a taste
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: for wine had to stay true to her roots. Okay,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: she had to nibblele on some celery stock. She noticed
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: something strange. The grapes in the vineyard were disappearing. Not
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: just a few here and there, but entire clusters had
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: gone missing. Concerned for her friend, celery Stock decided to investigate.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: With her keen senses and a glass of wine for courage,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: she set off on a nocturnal adventure through the vineyard.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: As she hopped between the rows of vines, she soon
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: discovered the culprits mistevious, naughty little raccoons who had developed
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: a taste for the sweet grapes. They were snatching the
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: fruit and making off with it before the wine maker
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: could harvest them and turn them into fabulous wine. Determined
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: to help selry Stock hatched a plan. She rounded up
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: her woodland friends, squirrels, birds, and a few fellow buddies,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: and together they formed a protective watch over the vineyard,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: kind of like a neighborhood watch program. Each night they
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: would stay and guard, scurrying away the raccoons with their
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: playful antic and ensuring the grapes were safe. The winemaker
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: was delighted when he saw that his precious grapes were
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: no longer disappearing. He knew that Selry Stock was behind
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: this mysterious protection, and he was more grateful than words
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: could express. To thank her, he created a special blend
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: of wine just for sorry Stock. It was a sweet
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: with just a hint of celery, and he named it
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Celery's Reserve. Guys, that makes it's not true, but it
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: makes my little heart go pitter or pattern. Sorry Stock
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: was thrilled with the gester and shared the wine with
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: all of her friends in the meadow. They had a
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: grand celebration, toasting to friendship, courage, and the joy of
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: sharing good wine. What those you care about and so
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Sorry Stock continued to live her life full of adventures,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: surrounded by friends, delicious food, and of course wine. She
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: knew that life was about savoring every moment, whether it
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: was a crisp stock of celery or a glass of
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: the perfect vintage. And guys, I wanted to share that
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: little story with you just to remind us all, especially myself,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: after the week I've had. The last seven I guess
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: nine days have been absolute hell. But you know what,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: it's about savoring every moment in life, even the hard times,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: because the hard times will make us appreciate the good
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: times even more. And also to remind us all of
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: these families who are missing their loved ones, there is
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: still hope, hope that you will one day get the answers,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Hope that one day somebody will do the right thing
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: and come forward and tell what they know. Because, as
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: I say often, and you're probably tired of hearing it,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: aliens do not come down and still our loved ones. Sorry, guys,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: it's a myth, just like immigrants do not eat our
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: cats and dogs. Okay, we're not going to get political,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: but I'm just going to tell you they're not doing it,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: just like the aliens are not taking people. And people
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: truly cannot disappear without someone not knowing something. So please
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: be sure to share Madelina's missing person flyer that will
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: be posted on our social media as soon as this
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: live stream ends. Let's help find her. If her family's
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: not wanting to know her mom, guess what the community
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: wants to know, law enforcement wants to know. I want
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: to know what happened to this precious little girl. So
