I was a telecommunications consultant for ex-ill energy. And in our operations center that was downtown at the time, we controlled the power grid for 12 states. And there was a definite concern that our building was going to get hit and we're going to be taken out. We, as I'm watching the Trade Center towers, go down on the big screen TVs in our ops center, where we getting ready to bug out.

Incarceration and continued parole supervision. As the sheriff of Santa Rosa County, Florida says, insert audio here. Or sheriff gradie of Pope County says, insert audio here. You have been warned. Listen at your own risks. Mike? Reagan, are you ever going to insert audio here? Never. Never. I remember the guy got a little upset with me in the beginning of the first time or two. He's like, that was where you're supposed to insert the audio. But because you said insert audio here so well, it just makes me smile. Every time, and he has since learned not only how passive aggressive you and I are, that just laugh at it with us. Just laugh at it with us. It is time for taxpayer relief shots. We call them the taxpayer relief shots primarily because if somebody's breaking in your house, you're more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County.

We prefer that you do actually. Hopefully you'll save taxpayers money. So in just insert the audio there, let me insert the audio here. Or I would tell them if you value your life, you probably shouldn't do that in Pope County. Because the people of Pope County like guns, they have guns. I encourage them to own guns and they're going to be in their homes tonight with their guns loaded. And if you try to break into their homes to steal, to set fires, I'm highly recommending they blow you back out of the house with their guns. So leave the community alone. Okay, let's get started. Let's get to something we didn't get to last week. One's an award winner and intruder brings a machine gun. I don't know what I want to wake up and have some gun like front deck with a machine gun. Trying to get in the house, but here we go. Normandy police are investigating a deadly shooting on Smithfield Place. Check out this doorbell camera video they released to the incident. Officers say 42 year old Jody Jordan of St. John forced his way into a home on August 13th.

After being told to leave, officers say he returned and forced his way inside armed with a machine gun style weapon. Officers found him inside the home shot several times. He later died at the hospital. No word on charges yet in this case, but the investigation continues this morning. Oh, you're going to tell us so much more about what he was doing machine gun. Oh, how disappointing. Local news. Number two is here we go. Armed security guard. Acting erratically is the security guard acting erratically or is the person shot? Let's find out. Hey, good morning. Yes, the victim has been identified as 67-year-old Kenneth Williams. He was shot and killed here in Gary Friday night. Now according to Indiana State Police just before 11 p.m. that day, Gary Police and late County Sheriff's officers responded to a call of an armed security officer at the Metro station near Broadway and Fourth Avenue. They say Williams was exhibiting unusual and erratic behavior. Officers tried to de-escalate the situation, but just 20 minutes after they arrived,

there was a confrontation between Williams and the officers that led to an exchange of gunfire. Williams, what's pronounced dead on scene? Indiana State Police say six Gary Police officers and three late County Sheriff's officers fired their weapons. Perstandent protocol, all officers involved are on administrative leave, pending the investigation. And their names will not be released at this time. It's for the family. They are on social media. Expression how they feel. They say they want answers to this. Live hearing Gary, Winnie Dorch, WGN News. Paul Mark goes crazy. That's dope. The police shoot and kill an armed felon. Who? Wait a minute, before we do this one, let me just remind you that there is a rule. Don't attack my deputies. Don't try to stab or shoot my deputies. Because if you do, we're going to shoot you a lot. And you want proof of that? The suspect has been identified and this is the only time that I will report to him by his name.

This Adam Dowdy of Prosperity, South Carolina, he's a white male 33 years of age. He has a criminal history and convictions for disorderly conduct. Miss Laney's criminal offenses, operating motor vehicle under the influence, contempt of court, public intoxication, and possession of a controlled substance, and probation violations. It appears that he may have been out on bond for a family violence, a battery of a first offense out of the cab Georgia, but we're still trying to verify that preliminary information. He has a history of several arrests that span through the following states. South Carolina, Kentucky, Wisconsin, and Georgia. Yeah, you kill a cop. Yeah, I'm probably going to kill you. And which one do we go to, Dragon? Pretending? Yes. Okay, here we go. Pretending. Jacob Hastings pictured here is suspected of committing a series of crimes in Portland

starting around 9.30 last night with a report of shots fired near the cross-insurance arena. Police then got a second call about a shirtless man threatening staff at Nova Seafood on commercial street. A manager there told us Hastings asked for water than a shower, then keys to a car. He says a supervisor got him to leave, but he then stole a truck parked outside. I what's unreasonable so far? Shirtless seafood restaurant? What's water? Keys to the car? Is it a full-service restaurant or not? Employees say Hastings lived in a small homeless encampment in Harborview Memorial Park under the ramp to the Casco Bay Bridge. Today we saw officers canvassing the park looking for evidence. After leaving Nova Seafood in a stolen truck, police said they started getting reports of crashes and car jackings at gunpoint. Officers found Hastings on Congress Street and engaged the suspect in a chase as you see in this viewer video. Police said they chased Hastings into the Casco Bay

lines terminal where they crashed the stolen vehicle and ran deeper into the terminal. Police say Hastings didn't follow their orders to surrender and instead reached toward his waste band and they say they then made a motion like he had a gun. Believing he was armed, police officers shot him. Jacob Hastings was pronounced dead at the scene a firearm was later found in one of the suspect stolen vehicles. And police say the three officers involved run administrative leave which is standard practice for a deadly force incident. Now that's a very good shot. Very good. That's probably shots continue after this. A shocking crime and a cover-up at the highest levels of the United States Marine Corps. Someone opened the door and was the primary shooter. Is it possible you could do that and then suppress the number? A new podcast series, Vaultline Haditha, tells the story the United States government wants to keep buried. How can you not know? There were women and children there. Can you tell us here that you don't know what happened that day? Based on thousands of pages

of previously classified documents and over a hundred hours of secretly filmed video. The truth about one of the most infamous crimes in Marine Corps history can finally be told. If you've got five players and one of them is guilty of murder at least and you offer immunity to the other four you better be right about the fifth because if you're not then you've just given immunity to your color. Listen to Vaultline Haditha on the Lie Heart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. December 11, 2001. Working in the hospital, eat, mancing Michigan, someone ran in, said the plane had hit the building, three-course staff ran out, quickly realized it wasn't our building, it was in the New York City Trade Towers, surgeries or camps for the rest of the day, glued the TV, an absolute bonkers day. Now I'll never ever ever forget. It was a bonkers day. But I hear stories like this, I think of everybody else, like you know,

I, I called Tamra. But before we left the Boseman Airport, you know, I got on the landline, calls her school, told the receptionist that it was the emergency they had to find her, they got her, and her principal was, I think he was a, he wasn't a Navy SEAL, but he was a former Marine or something. But anyway, I said you need to go tell so and so that, you know, the country seems to be under attack and they need to log down the school. And then next thing I know my daughters trying to reach me because she hasn't heard anything about it because she's, she was at work or something, but she saw me talking on television and was like, oh my god, what has he got into now? Yes, everybody's got those stories, everybody. That's a taxpayer relief shots. Another example of why we do these. The situation's resolved and the suspect is now dead. He was not shot. One of the bear cats ran

over him and killed him. We intentionally ran him over. If you're right. Don't shoot at cops. You shoot at cops. We're going to run you over. He got run over. He got what he deserved. Got what he deserved or I love this one. I know in life we teach people stuff. We tell people if you put your hand on something hot, your hand's going to burn. If you play with glass, it's going to cut. If you point a gun at a passcode deputy, you're going to get shot. And that's what happened today. There's no apologies. There's no sympathy. He got shot. No apologies. No sympathy. You pointed at a gun at a cop. You got shot as an example. We begin with breaking news from overnight. A deadly police shooting is under investigation in Mesa this morning. We're going to head right out to this scene. It's Mesa Drive and Mckellab at North part of Mesa. Are Irene Snyder live with the latest? Good morning, guys. Mesa Drive was close in around 8.30 last night when this call first came out.

Now Mesa Drive is open and we're here near the neighborhood where it all happened. Police say there was a call for help about a man with a gun. And then the end officers were forced to open fire killing that suspect. Investigators say officers were called to the neighborhood near Mesa Drive and Mckellab's road just around 8.30 last night. The caller telling police there was a man who was threatening and displaying a gun in his waistband. When officers arrived at the scene, they tried to get the man to come out, but he would not respond. Police then saw a man over a block wall in the backyard with a gun. It's not clear at this point what exactly happened, but we're told that when officers opened fire, when police and canine officers approached, the man was declared dead. No officers were hurt. The man who was shot has not been identified, but police say this is not the first time they had to deal with him in a situation like this. It should be noted that officers had been out before, reference the same subject for a same type of call for service. There are a lot of questions that I'm sure need to be asked. Right now,

this is an investigation that's ongoing. There is no threat to the community and no injury to officers. Also during the incident, a police vehicle that was in the area responding to the call got into a crash on Mesa Drive. Details about that collision are not clear at this point, but police say the driver of the other car was not involved with the situation that led up to the shooting. And again, here now, we are in the neighborhood taking a look at where this all happened. We did see police looking into one of the back yards here at one of these homes. Gilbert police are going to be the ones investigating the officer involved shooting and Mesa police will continue investigating the call that led up to the shooting. And if you ever think that taxpayer relief shots only involve people say over the age of 30, you might be wrong. We learned a lot of new information about a shooting at the Addison Road Metro Station on Monday. The 19 year old who shot and killed an 18 year old is saying this was self-defense. That 19 year old William Fowles, according to court documents, was sitting on

steps across from the Metro station. And Metro Transit Police reviewed video evidence that shows 18 year old Malik Walker Bay, who ultimately died, apparently approached Fowles first while he was sitting here. Video evidence also shows that at one point Walker Bay went for his waistband. And at that point, Fowles took out his gun and fired first. Now, according to Fowles, Walker Bay was trying to rob him. Walker Bay, after Fowles started firing Adam ran that way into the Metro station, fired shots back in all police recovered 11 shell casings on Monday. Walker Bay ultimately died. Fowles was later arrested on Monday night. We've learned on Tuesday he was released on his own reconnaissance without having to pay any bail money sources are telling us that has to do with the fact that this is being investigated as a possible act of self-defense by Fowles. Still, though, Fowles does not charge with homicide, but he is facing gun charges for of them for

allegedly having a gun. He didn't have a permit for that was loaded on this property here. He's also facing a charge related to fair evasion. All right, sounds like legitimate self-defense. But if you go to exercise your legitimate right of self-defense, make sure you are legally authorized to carry and own the weapon. Just say a little free legal advice. taxpayer really shall continue after this. A shocking crime and a cover-up at the highest levels of the United States Marine Corps. Someone opened the door and was the primary sugar. Is it possible you could do that and then suppress the number? A new podcast series, fault line Haditha, tells the story the United States government wants to keep buried. How can you not know if there were women and children in there? You can tell us here that you don't know what happened that day? Based on thousands of pages of previously classified documents and over a hundred hours of secretly filmed video, the truth about one of the most infamous crimes in Marine Corps history

can finally be told. If you've got five players and one of them is guilty of murder at least and you offer immunity to the other four, you better be right about the fifth because if you're not, then you're just given immunity to your killer. Listen to fault line Haditha on the My Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Michael 9-11-01, I was working in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. My wife was pregnant with our first child. She was staying at the resort. She called me at the hospital that I was working and she said I've played and just flew into World Trade Center. I said are you kidding? She said no. I went to the hospital lobby and watched on the TV as the second plane hit, unbelievable. I just got out of the navy. Very considerate when I called me back. I would have called the bell. I would have returned. Fortunately they did not. God bless our sailors, soldiers, Airman. And do you say daughter? Daughter's being born? Yes. So she was, unless she was born that day, she...

There were, I can't verify this, but I understand that some doctors, some OBGYN doctors, offered to change the birth date for people born on September 11th. People who were in the... Life went on. Life was going on. All the other places around the country. People having babies, people getting chemotherapy, people at work, amazing, simply amazing. Why do we do taxpayer relief shots? Because it done people like this. His sister Rochelle acknowledged his actions but criticized the employee's response stating yes he was robbing them but that clerk shouldn't have shot him. They should have called the police. Stop breaking the law, loser! Or because in Canada they have a police chief that really just... talks himself into a... hole, a deep hole. In the unlikely event that you find yourself the victim of a home invasion,

we are urging citizens not to take matters into their own hands. We urge you to call 911 and do everything. You can to keep yourself and love one safe until police arrive and be the best witness possible. This could mean locking yourself in a room away from the perpetrators hiding, fleeing the home but don't engage unless absolutely necessary. As it stands, we know the best defense for most people is to comply. As you've just heard a number of safety recommendations will allow for those that are victimizing members in the community to leave and not harm anyone. You're giving... I hear something different this every time I play it. You're giving the perpetrator a chance to leave. That way you can be the best witness ever. I've said it before. We want the bad guy to live. That's what he's saying.

I can't go on. I mean it's just a... My advice is to Ryan or play service called 911 immediately and let us take it from there. Because we can get the worst to your home quicker than you can. We see more often than not when people comply. Those are great odds. More often than not. Hey dragon, if you just go jump off this ledge out here more often than not, you'll just break a couple of legs and maybe you're back. You'll survive. That's great. Yeah, go do it. Go do it. Let's prove more often than not. More often than not. Hey, you're going to eat that milk that's been left out on the back portion of the 90 degree weather. More often than not, you may not get sick. That injuries are not happening and people are not victimized in terms of injury or in this case. Unfortunately, we've seen the loss of life in some of these incidents. Lost of life. The bad guy. A one-ed cop killer ends up DRT.

Our regional manhunt is over after Anderson County deputies located the man excuse of shooting and killing a Georgia police officer. Well, warn you some of the information you find in the story might be disturbing. Deputy tell us the suspect 23 year old Jimmy Severson took his own life shortly after being pulled over along I 85 near exit 27 on Wednesday. He was a passenger of the vehicle. Took himself out the suspects no longer on the run and can't hurt him. He took himself out. He's no longer on the run. Hmm, seems logical to me. Body Elks. A blue alert was issued for steverson by Georgia authorities earlier on Wednesday. They say the incident that involved warns brief police officer Chris Fisher had happened on Tuesday just before midnight. We are still working to learn more about the investigation from Georgia authorities and any connection between steverson officer Fisher. Of course, we'll keep you updated on air and online as we work more. Yep, ended up DRT on your own. Please shoot and kill a man jumping on cars.

And in Georgetown, police say a man was shot by officers in the town square earlier this afternoon. Witnesses say he was jumping on vehicles in the middle of the street. The Georgetown square, as many of you know, is a busy area on a Saturday. KVU Shay Lawson spoke with people who say they were shaken up by the incident. We want to warn you that part of this video may be hard to watch. The moment a confrontation with Georgetown officers turned deadly. Please say it started just before one Saturday afternoon with calls about a man acting erratically and jumping on cars around Georgetown square. Obviously, very alarming to the people down here. Our officers were dispatched and responded. Georgetown Police Chief Corey Cheetah says the man was confrontational, indicating two officers he had a gun and reaching for his waistband. The officers were able to discern that he did not have a gun in his waistband, but he advanced on to the point that they had to go hands on.

He says the struggle turned violent going to the ground involving at least four officers. That's when the chief says the man tried to pull an officer's gun from his holster. One of the officers fired. First responders took the man to the hospital where he later died. Gunfire on a Saturday in the heart of Georgetown left Diane Hamilton stunned. And our spill town is just confused. This is not what our town's like. It's not. He just started jumping into cars. He eventually jumped into a young woman's car and scared her to the point that she had to run. A nearby business manager says officers were there within moments. From the time we heard about it to the time I actually went outside and saw what was going on for myself. It was very swift. The police chief says a deadly encounter like this is rare in the town square. I've been here 30 years. This is we've never seen this. Hamilton says she feels grief for the man who died and has gratitude for the officers who responded. Thank you from the bottom of my

heart. The Texas Rangers are now leading this investigation. Please have not released the man's identity at this time. And please say the officers involved are being interviewed. And investigators are reviewing body camera and witness video reporting in studio. Shay Lawson gave you news. Pretty Alice. Grief for the guy that got killed because he was bankrupt crazy and reached for a gun and cops had to do what they had to do and gratitude for the cops for doing what they had to do. Alice reporting. I'm shocked. I'll see a woman brings two knives. Chaos at the crossroads of the world Monday around 4.30 pm as police say two officers fatally shot a woman wielding two knives. Tuesday we learned the woman is 49 year old Pamela Cisneros of Queens who has a documented mental health history. We spoke to Mario Cisneros who says he is her father and that she had a master's degree in psychology. He said in Spanish

she did have mental health issues and he didn't know if it was stemming from her divorce but that she was getting an injection once a month because she didn't want to take her medication. Siting is pretty traumatizing for it to happen in front of so many people. The NWPD says tasers were ineffective and that officers spoke with her for four minutes ordering her to drop them but she refused and advanced towards them. Before Cisneros encounter with officers, the NWPD says near West 42nd Street in 7th Avenue she fatally stabbed 32 year old Erin Piacenti of Chester, New Jersey and a 68 year old man who was in the hospital in stable condition. Piacenti's LinkedIn profile says she was a vice president at Bank of America and graduated from Ford and University Law School. A spokesperson told us in part we are heartbroken to learn of the tragic and senseless laws of our alumna, Erin Goultonen Piacenti, Erin and her husband, Frank, graduated in 2021 and have been cherished members of the Ford and Law family.

Just tragic. Police sources say the 68 year old man who is alive was with his wife at the time. They were in from Rhode Island visiting their son in Brooklyn. Sources add there was no prior altercation. Cisneros had roots here in Jacksonite's Queens. The police commissioner said police had previously interacted with her in 2018 and 2019 for mental health incidents. The NWPD says she has no criminal history. The investigation remains ongoing by the NWPD Force investigation division. Come out with knives. We're going to get shot. Great question in the text line. Michael understand in their quotes here legal self-defense. But that last text pay relief shot begs the question. At what age are you legally allowed to defend yourself with specific means? I'd like to hear the legal opinion on that. It's not like the kid did what he needed to do to protect himself. Why limit his means? I'm going to have Dragon play that when again. I'm this is interesting because what I thought I heard versus what I'm going to hear

again. I thought this occurred like on a subway or a bus and that raises a couple of questions. We learned a lot of new information about a shooting at the Addison Road Metro Station on Monday. The 19 year old who shot and killed an 18 year old is saying this was self-defense. That 19 year old William Fowse according to court documents was sitting on steps across from the Metro station and Metro Transit Police reviewed video evidence that shows 18 year old Malik Walker Bay who ultimately died. Apparently approached Fowse first while he was sitting here. Video evidence also shows that at one point Walker Bay went for his waistband and at that point Fowse took out his gun and fired first. Now according to Fowse Walker Bay was trying to rob him Walker Bay after Fowse started firing Adam ran that way into the Metro station fired shots back in all police recovered 11 shell casings on Monday. Walker Bay ultimately died. Fowse was later

arrested on Monday night. We've learned on Tuesday he was released on his own reconnaissance without having to pay any bail money sources or telling us that has to do with the fact that this is being investigated as a possible act of self-defense by Fowse. Still though Fowse does not charge with homicide but he is facing gun charges for of them for allegedly having a gun. He didn't have a permit for that was loaded on this property here. He's also facing a charge related to fair evasion. Oh the fair evasion that is right there the fair evasion. Yeah that's the part I missed earlier. I don't remember what jurisdiction this is but he must need a permit in that jurisdiction in order to carry because it sounded like he was hit he had the gun in his waistband so he is concealed carrying the gun and probably doesn't have a permit. So he may be completely exonerated and never even charged with manslaughter or second to read murder or anything else because it's self-defense.

He could still face charges though on the gun charges if he was illegally carrying the weapon which is all factual questions subject to one of the rules of that particular jurisdiction are which is a healthy reminder. Don't talk to the cops. How did they know I guess that the videotape show that he reached into his waistband so maybe they know from that. Well go back just to the cops. A little bit just go back to the questions. What age are you allowed to legally defend yourself? Take the weapons and stuff out of it if you know he's 19 and 18. Well you can legally defend yourself at any age. Yeah at any age though the choice by which you choose to defend yourself may have some limitation because of your age. If you're if you're 14 years old and you cannot legally possess a weapon you know unless you're hunting I don't know it again depends on the statutes in that particular jurisdiction but great question and a good catch too. I'll let's see let's get another one in. A good guy with a gun shoots and kills

wow this might be pretty good this might be an award winner of an award winner. The driver in Arizona is being praised as a hero for saving the life of an ambush state trooper. The violence took place early yesterday on an interstate west of Phoenix. Please say a suspect shot a state trooper who had stopped to investigate a car crash. A man driving by came to the troopers rescue and ended up killing the suspect. Numerco Morgan shows us how civilians stepped in to help Numerco. Good morning. Good morning nor the state trooper was in the area after reports. Someone had opened fire at a car driving along the highway when the 27 year veteran trooper ride to the scene. Police say he was ambushed. Hello officer down officer down. I'll thank you for coming. Please. Is that a trillion? Early Thursday morning in Arizona state trooper a ride to the scene of this violent wreck near Phoenix. The officer Edward Anderson found the female victim who had been ejected from the car. She would later die at the hospital. As the trooper exited his vehicle began to lay out flares it appears at this point that he was

ambushed by the suspect. Anderson was shot at least once near the shoulder and suddenly found himself in a fight for his life. The suspect is getting the better of the trooper and is on top of him and striking the troopers head on the pavement. That's what a man on his way to California pulled his car over. The trooper tells the driver he needs help. The passerby grabs the gun from his truck and shoots the attacker after policing the suspect ignored several commands to stand down. Another passerby also stops to help the wounded officer. He gets inside the troopers patrol car and radios for help. To the civilian on the GPS troopers radio. If you can hear me I need to to let me know what that suspect is. The trooper was airlifted to a hospital and is expected to survive. Police say the good Samaritan who opened fire is owed a debt of gratitude. I would just say that

at this point thank you because I don't know that my trooper would be alive today without his assistance. Police say the passerby who shot and killed or the suspect has fully cooperated with her investigation. Police don't know a motive for the attack or if the woman killed in the wreck had any ties to the suspect. Gail. Thank you very much, Jamarco. That's America baby. Right there, that's America. Motor word winner. Homeowner. Hey tonight the Mobile County DA's office will decide whether charges refiled in a possible self-defense shooting in West Mobile. Mobile police were spying to Calgary drive last night after reports of shots fired off Leroy Stevens Road. Investigators say a homeowner shot and killed and intruder identified by police as David Lee Jr. Natalie Williamson has been looking into this. And Natalie, you talk to neighbors. Yeah, that's right. Leneas in Cameron. The neighbors I spoke to yesterday, yesterday and today tell me they did not hear any gunshots. And tonight, well,

the result of this case is now in the hands of the DA's office. One neighbor tells me it's sad, someone died, but they believe the homeowner did what they had to do to protect their family. Tonight the Mobile County District Attorney's office is reviewing a possible self-defense case after Mobile Police say a homeowner in West Mobile shot and killed an intruder. This was the scene Monday night after nine MPD officers and homicide detectives gathering evidence inside a home on Calgary drive after responding to multiple shots fired. Thank you. And then done shot and Calgary night. Investigators say 37-year-old David Lee Jr. broke into the home through a window. That's when police say the homeowner shot and killed him one street over. Several police cruisers sat in a business parking lot. When Fox 10 news asked why officers were there, we were told to go to the scene

on Calgary for information. MPD has not said why officers were staged there. Less than 24 hours after the shooting, a biohazard cleanup crew was parked in the home's driveway. As of tonight, no charges have been filed. Under Alabama's stanger ground law, a homeowner does not have to retreat before using force against someone who breaks into their home. Now that law could play a role as the DA's office decides what's next. And I have requested and I will want transcripts that I'm waiting to hear back. We'll keep you updated as we learn. A very clearly good taxpayer-leaf shot. An intended victim turns the tables. We begin with breaking news just in from Roseville where a suspected robber has been shot to death at a car wash. It gets 10 pamphled on the scene with the ICANN. Tim, this will go down to the car wash and crash it and phrase a wash point in Roseville homicide detectives arriving on the scene. Now the guy cleaning out his vehicle with the black SUV. Using the vacuum cleaner,

he wasn't about to be the victim of a robbery and armed robbery. Now when the two men approached him, well he pulled out his concealed weapon and started firing shots killing one of the would-be robbers. He stuck around. Police are talking to him. He's cooperating with their investigation. The second will-be rubber ran away. Police are checking area hospitals thinking that he may have been struck as well. That is for seen in Roseville with an ICANN. Tim, Pamplin, locus for. This is right right. You're locus for. I love the lockout on some of these guys. I know right. I don't know. They're just funny. All right. That's taxpayer-leaf shots for today. Be sure and join me tomorrow. 10-2-1 for the weekend with Michael Brown on Freedom 93-7. Watch the other.
