The Thanksgiving Episode

sister's world. David was actually only way too my sister house when my sister had to get off the freeway and turn back around and go straight to the hospital. And uh, Moms never came home from that day, so we never got a chance to enjoy Thanksgiving. We was at the hospital with her, okay, so she wasn't gonna be doing much cooking on Thanksgiving two thousand. She thought she was. She wanted to. She yeah, my sister and then took her to her house in uh Fontana, but

she she couldn't make it. She didn't make it there, and they went from from the house to the freeway, off the freeway to St. Francis and two days after she was gone. So what's the plans for Thanksgiving this year for you and your family because it's gonna be a lot different now. Well, my aunties and and my sister then think that this should be a good time, that we all should get together and and and doing things giving because that's how my mama would have wanted it,

you know what I'm saying. So I don't care where is that. I'm gonna be there. The food ain't I mean, my aunting them they cook like mothercker, but it ain't gonna be the same because I don't have my mama's you know what I'm saying. And it's a sad thing, but I'm working on it. So having Thanksgiving to everybody out there, definitely, And even though I don't celebrate Thanksgiving, I'm gonna take my kids after we've done with this show to whatever family member's house they want to go

to useless their aunt. So h happy Thanksgiving everybody out there listening. Now, Last week we had t K Kirtland Kirkland, and we didn't really get a chance to do a fact check from the week before when we had Ari Spado. But let me just go through a just a couple of quick ones. Um, when you and or were talking last two weeks ago, y'all mentioned the movie, y'all said, Across A hundred and thirty fourth Street, but the name of the movie is Across A hundred tenth Street. And

that movie was starred Ya Feticado and Anthony Quinn. Now, y'all, Feticado was an actor, a brother that doesn't really get a lot of attention people. You know, never hear anybody talking about y'all Vticado. But he's just a black actor that I've been following for years. I've never actually seen that movie. I'm definitely gonna go and check it out. Yeah, and then Anthony Quinn is probably people don't know this, but Anthony Quinn is Mexican. His last name name really Quinn,

It's Kenyon, but he shortened. Yeah. You know, a lot of actors change their name back in him, so he got rid of the canonists and just put Quinn on it. And uh, you know, kind of crossed over into the white acting, you know, with the because you look at him sometimes you might think he's white, but he's Anglo. Yeah, and he could play like an Anglo guy, but then he could also play uh Anthony Queen played good uh

Western movies. Yeah, A watch a lot of his uh ship Kickers, and I think he's from East l A originally or Boil Heights. So that's a movie that I was just reading some of the reviews of it, and I recommend everybody to go check it out. Across Hunter in ten Street, um from Back in the Day, from Back in the Days, and another fact check from two weeks ago. Or he was talking about his case when he got indicted with in that mafia indictment with the Colombos.

Was it the Colombos, Yeah, it was the Colombo Uh. He mentioned Judge Weinstein. It was um as being um. I forget what specifically said about him, but I looked him up jug Jack Bertrand Weinstein. He was born in nineteen twenty one. He is currently nine eight years old, and as of two thousand and eighteen, he was still a judge with a full docutive cases. So he's the oldest active judge in the United States years old, born,

still doing it as of two thousand and eighteen. I don't know if anything has changed from two thousand and eighteen to now, but he's presided over a bunch of mafia cases and all those cases that out of New York City federal court. Well, he definitely seen this ship. Yeah, I mean he saw that whole uh, that whole sunny sunny Franziz case, which was the guy that actually ordered it.

And I know that would have been crazy because they was killing judges at that time if they didn't get our turn that verdict towards day way there were a few that got killed. So I wonder how he Yeah you handling that. You know, all them judges um in downtown l A have karen concealed weapon permits. Yeah, now,

and I believe they have. Um. I can't confirm this or know this to be true, but I believe they got strapped a strap underneath their bench probably show the way these cats lunging now that people and at the judges now, but you don't need it when you got your three bailiffs, they are all strapped, you know. So I don't know how true it is a judge's got a gun underneath that desk. What do you think you can't say if you were a judge, I know you

definitely haven't shotgun. Let me tell you something, man, I don't care where I'm going and where I'm an. I got mine. I'm not it ain't no second guessing. Ain't no second guessing. And then to have that job, you got some crazy motherfucker's out of here, you know what I'm saying. You got some cats that hate that that that guy that rape their daughter or killed their son, and they lunging out at him, which I can't blame him,

but anybody can get hurt. And the police ain't stopped one yet from getting across that that that gate there, But it's only so far you can get though. That's the part I want to go. And um, I just want to add that that judge Jack Weinstein, he's been a judge in this nineteen sixty seven, so he's been a drugs longer and I've been alive. That's crazy. And he graduated from law school in nineteen and this dude is still doing his thing. Crazy. So that was the

judge that eventually gave or Spado. Um, I guess he gave him a pretty good deal. He only got five years. I don't want to say only five years is a lot of time to do in prison, but everybody in that indictment was looking at like ten twenty years. Let's just say five years. We're lucky. We're lucky for getting five because the ship you're doing, you should have been in it for life. So anybody they get a short and sentance like that is lucky. Alright. Uh, I gotta

mention few things in the news. Your boy O J. Simpson up to nine hundred and twenty five thousand subscribers. He still hasn't hit a million. And what's going on, O J? What's taking you so long to get a million subscribers? People is slowing down on it, but I should say, followers, this is Twitter, this is Twitter down. Yeah, they're slowing down on it. And uh, you know, I mean it's still a lot of people. There's still a lot of people right there. But like I said, and

I shouldn't long time and go. He needs to just sit back, go play golf and do his thing. He don't need all that attention. Well, he's from the hood, man, he's from Protero Project, San Francisco. The guy is not gonna keep his mouth shut. Ever, I don't care how old he gets that and and and that's a problem, that's a problem. I think he's staying clean though. I don't think he's gonna do anything dumb to catch another

case like he did. Even though that was I feel like he got railroaded in Nevada because he basically got charged for trying to get back his own stuff. Right, you're not not tell me this and you get robbed, you get at and then you see the dude with your stuff and you decided to use physical force to get it back. Isn't that what you expected to do? For number one, how did he know that she was in the battom. For number two, why would he take these cats? He really don't know to go get something

that belonged to him. Number three, he should have got that those cats, had a conversation, had the police do whatever at his age. If you want to get at them, you got to find a better place to do it. Because Las Vegas is number cameras, you know what I'm saying. And everything was against me because he got Now you got motherfucker's saying. Oh he was. He wanted to this, He wanted to that. Come on, man, it's oh jo Oh. He shouldn't have took he shouldn't have went with the strap.

That's probably mistake number That was mistake number one. And he probably could have just sent some other people and he didn't have to go on and have to go. Yeah, but I wasn't expecting for him to get thirty three years in prison, of which he did ten. He did ten years for basically trying to get his own stuff back that belonged to him. Everybody looking at it like that. He went there to take his ship, to rob them for his ship. That's what he wants jail for. Rob

don't consider it the robbery though. If it's your stuff, right, how did they get it? They stole it actually from him. I don't know how they stole that. That part. They never came out with that. Where how did you get it? How did you get there? Ol j. It was a set up from the beginning. Well, I think, um, I think he got railroaded and I believe he got those thirty three years because of Nicole Simpson and um Mr Goldman. We didn't get him on that one. They didn't get

him on that one. So we can give him thirty three years for that one. But if they wanted to keep him, they could have kept him in there for thirty three years. Well, he he did ten and he's home now and he's free. And that's what the average catti is doing for robberie such as that gun uh strong arm ten years and he did exactly and so they really didn't do him bad. All right, James, I want to talk a little bit about these police officers

man getting a rested left and right. The first one is a grand jury in Delaware has indicted a Dewey Dewey Beach police officer named Gregory Lynch for an assault that happened back in August. Um. Yeah, so I mean we're we're in November. I don't know why. If you do an assault, you're getting arrested on the spot. If you do an assault, I'm going to jail right away.

When these cops do these various offenses, it's always like, well, let's investigate it first, find out if there was anything done wrong, and then if we're gonna arrest them, we're gonna arrest. And when you know you're gonna arrest the dude, the rest of dude, they wait till November, the arrest the dude that did something in August. First, they gotta do an investigation, which our investigation is shiitting in jail. Where did you do? You know what I'm saying. But

this is my whole thing. Police or just like us. They're normal, they're just like us, and and and they have attitudes just like we do. And they do dumb ship. But to believe to be a police officer, you can't act like me. You can't talk to me the way I talk to you. But they don't. They don't possess that that quality. Man, And some some cops don't need to be police officers. Look at all of these cops going to jail. You got cops, so many cops going to jail for murder. Now you got so many cops

beating up people. I remember one time I went to jail. They told me for a terrorist threat just because I'm talking ship. I mean, it didn't make no sense. It didn't make no sense. But yet they do the same ship, they do the same ship. I like somebody on to explain that to me, with a terrorist threat is such a fake thing. If I say something like I'm gonna

beat your ass, that's a terrorist threat. And basically that's what I said, put jil You know what I said was put that motherfucking stick down and I'll whoop your motherfucking ass. I guarantee you whoop your ass. They took me to jail for a test that fifty dollar barn damn. And that's ridiculous. So explain to me a terrorist threat.

Explain it to me. I don't understand it. So they come up with these different these different laws just to get you, just to take you to jail because you don't respect them or not respecting them at that time, and and they find some kind of way to put you in jail. Now we're on the flip side of this here. You got all of these different cops. Man.

I watched one cop, Uh walked to some brothers I was telling Brian walked up to some brothers after shopping and told them, show me your I D. And your your car registration for what I'm in a puking lot. You can't give a motherfucking ticket for that. But what did I do wrong? But they alive. They stretched the truth all day. So I don't know, Man, I don't know. It's just coming to a time where you can't trust the police. And that's the sad thing, you know what

I'm saying. Uh, some of it outweighs the good ones. These bad cops definitely not mean you mentioned terrorist threat? Um, did you know, Shug when he was imprisoned in the County jail just recently. He wasn't only facing the murder and attempt to murder against Terry Carter and Bone. He also had an incident with Cat Williams, and then he also had a terrorist threat charge from a text message he sent to F. Gary Gray, the director of the movie Straight out of Compton, What are you Gonna do?

He So he was facing three other three cases, all felonies, and his terrorist threat was making a threat and it was a through text. It wasn't even a verbal threat. So they hit him with a terrorist threat. But he mean, he was threatening F. Gary Gray and well F. Gary Graham from the streets. So look at we all grown mother and that man was scared. Yeah, because damn Mr shild Night telling me this, you know what I'm saying. He had a lot of motherfuckers that didn't even want

to go to sleep at night. But I mean a terrrist thrait. Man, I don't get it. I don't get it. Well, I don't know. Uh, I didn't know a terrorist threat can come in the form of a text message. But they they charged Sugar with that as one of the three cases he was fighting now we have, um, we have another cop that was arrested. This is a female officer named Angel Herring, forty seven years old out of Dallas,

from the Dallas Police Department. It's the same department that we've been talking about on and off for the last few weeks regarding Joshua Brown incident. But she was charged with tampering with evidence. Not that serious tampering with evidence because you don't know if that's a case on somebody or she's exaggerating the evidence against someone. But she turned herself fin November, uh, a couple of weeks ago, about a week and a half ago, for tampering with evidence.

This is a police officer. She and the first one. Yeah, I know, we all know that they got one cop and you know, I you know, I strolled through this this this here thing on my phone, and you know, they show all types of various types of police officers. You know, it's uh police to police. You got one cop putting drugs on people that they ain't never touched

drugs and day in their life. They found him, they showed it shows him he thought his dad's cameras cameras off, his body cameras off, and but it's still running and it takes so many for it to go off, and when it come on and do whatever. And this dude called putting drugs in the man wallet, you know what I'm saying. So you know that was that was called

on camera. But but he didn't get fired. If you catch one of your officers doing some ship like that, you need to go through every case that he'd have been on, every arrested. Heaven made the whole nine because at the end of the day, this one bad cop gonna make everybody else you look bad. Now what happens when motherfucker's just stopped trusting the police, period, Well, I think that's already started. I mean yeah, and it's a bad thing. I posted a video of me getting pulled over.

In a lot of comments under the video, we're saying, this is why we don't trust the police because of the way they treat us during a basic traffic stop. You know. So, um, I mean, it's nothing new. Like you said, we got another officer here, off duty officer Cyprus police officer was arrested for sexual assault after this cop had a standoff with the other cops from Garden Grove Police that we're trying to arrest arrest them. Um oh, I don't have his name on here, but this just

happened here. I mean, Garden Grove is just the next county over. And what they're doing, they're just making these ships look bad. They are um and that's only proven to them that when people say that ain't buying you gotta look into that ship further because look what they look what they're doing. They're killing people, They're putting drugs on people. They're telling you you ain't got you you

I'm above the law. So how do you win? The only way you can win in certain situations is just say, okay, check this out. My name is whoo Woo Boblicer, And I was just telling Alex what we need to do on this show is is give a little lesson about I think your Uh how did I say that, I guess some of some of the rights. Yeah, because we got to know our rights. But then even if you know your rights, who's to say this ship is gonna work? And it all depends on the police officer they pull

you over. I always to say, just stand your ground, just maintain your position, because it's not it's not illegal for the police to lie to get you out of your rights. That's all. That's all the ego for them to say certain things, We're gonna take your kids away, it's all of that's legal. You just gotta be strong enough to maintain your position. One thing that you have to do is believe this. You have a right to remain silent if they pull you up. I don't answer questions,

That's all you gotta say. I don't answer questions because they're waiting for you to say something so they can find something or come up with something. I don't answer questions. You get them every time. You don't have to say anything to the police. You don't have to. You don't gotta answer goddamn question. Every you see the cops, they go straight to the back of the cart man. Why did you have all that joub don't answer that ship.

You don't even answer the most basic questions because everything you say is gonna be used against you in some way, and you're not gonna win. You are not gonna win, thinking, Okay, let me just talk. I'll explain this little part right here. No, you're not gonna win, so just keep your mouth shut from the very beginning. I don't answer. And the reason why I don't have officer the officer from Cyprus his name here is because I just looked it up. They

never released his name. They never released the identity of that Cypress police officer that was arrested for a sexual assault. So sometimes they kind of protect the identities of the cops until they go to trial, and then there's another code thing. He can get found guilty here, but he can go to another police department and worked they need to change that. No, if if he's found guilty of

a felony, I'm not sure. Like for example, the Dewey Beach Police officer Gregory Lynch that's charged with an assault, he's he's charged with a misdemeanor. So if Gregory Lynch from Dewey Beach Police has found guilty of that assault, he can be a cop again somewhere else because that's a misdemeaning. But if you're convicted of a felony, no, no, there's no way, it's it's over. It's a rap for for for anybody that has a felony when you cannot go into law enforcement at all. If you've got a felony,

suspicion of sexual asshance. Ain't that some good man? You know? There was these l ap D officers that were raping. There was these partners. I'm We're gonna have to bring that up next week. I'm gonna look that one up. But there were these partners that were actually raping women out and I think it was in Hollywood. And we got one more officer here from Citronelle. Citronelle police officer was fired after he was accused of beating a man

in custody. We're talking about officer Jason mead Uh was booked by Mobile County Metro Jail in Alabama and charged with second degree assaults. And this was um last month in October. So um, I mean a lot of people believe. And I work in the courts and I'm always dealing with juries. I would say ninety five percent of juries believed that the police don't do anything wrong. And I'm not exaggerating they because they say the police is here

to serving, but check a lot of people. She us as if they wouldn't do nothing wrong, they wouldn't be here. So you're already guilty, have as guilty, so you can't you there's nowhere around it. There's nowhere around it. Whether you you you applied to every thing they say, if you if you even say I don't answer question, that makes the mad. Yeah, it does. It makes the mad. And you're exercising your right, you're doing that. But they don't.

They don't look at it like that. And what the courts do if I guarantee you I don't ask no questions. If they start working people asking people start following up with these complaints and and lawsuits, the ship gonna stop because they're gonna start firing them. Because the captains don't want to look bad, they're gonna start getting rid of them. So you have to. But we're gonna do a show

about your mements. Reggie ain't gonna like that one. Um. You know, Reggie always thinks that I'm anti police, and I want to just make this clear. I am not anti police at all. I believe we cannot even have a society, a civil society without law enforcement. I'm just anti corrupt police. UM, anti police that try to infringe upon your rights. UM anti any of these police that are doing things that are inappropriate, especially the communities of color.

Where's a lot of police out there, man that that just don't have the skills to to being a certain place in the city working because me being a regular as white boy, you don't need to be Incompton. You don't need to be an Englewood because Englewood is high style. Come up to this hot style. Now, every time you put on your uniform, you gotta take a deep breath because you know you're gonna run into something or you

suspect that. So by suspecting that, man, I'm I'm running to a guy with a gun when they chose and the first thing in their mind is to react the ship. They don't see the ship that they think they saw. And that's the coldest that's the coldest thing, because they coming already prepared for whatever in the situations might not even be that fucking serious to to grab your gun when you walk on me, walk up to me. You don't have to. I'm as humble as fuck. But they

don't know that. But you know, and and and and they they win every time I fear for my life. Well, they're not gonna win when they're messing with the wrong people. And they showed the police feeding shut out of a man that didn't have no arms or legs what can this man do to you? And how did you fear for your life? Come on, man, that's ridiculous. You know.

I was just interviewing Junior from Tree Top Piru, who we had on the Gangster Chronicles about two or three, about three weeks ago, and while we were finishing up the interview, we were posted up on Rose Rands and we were done with the interview, but a car got pulled over by the Compton Sheriff right on the same corner we were standing on, right on Rosecrans. And as soon as that cop was walking to the car, two cops walking to the car, He's got his hand already

on the gun. They already ready. And I was about to say, wow, this is like they just scared to pull over black people on the streets. When now, I challenge anybody else, go watch the police pull over people in Culver City or Santa Monica or even on the West side of Los Angeles. You do not see cops with their hands on their guns walking to the car

during a traffic violation. Now, I still there and watched it for a couple of minutes, and then I guess after they talked to the driver for about a minute or two. They relaxed themselves a little bit. But to approach the car with your hand on your strap already, I was like, wow, this is just this is sad. Actually I ain't taking up from him. But let me ask you this, Yeah to to to being Compton and you know the environment you work in, and you know

that man, I might get three or four guns. Take my Jim found three maybe three four guns a night. I know, I gotta go to this car a certain kind of way. But once you see that it is not hot style, then you should be able to and know how to tone it down to the person you're talking to. But I bet Reggie Wright Jr. Didn't have his hand on his trap when he pulled people over in Compton all the time. I don't know. I mean, I don't want to speak from because he's not here, right,

I can't answer that, but not every cop does. It's different from being in Beverly Hills. But then you at some point sometimes you're gonna get caught up with a motherfucker, and Beverly Hills you don't know who you're pulling over. So I mean, my whole thing is I want to go home. But if I'm running to a kid like like him and him and oh, Jim bible over there, I might not make it, you know what I'm saying. So it's kind of like a uh twisting between the both.

But you gotta know how to turn it on and turn it off at something ain't and they don't do that when they walked to the car in his own. It stays that way until they either take you to jail or drive away. They can't get not on you, so they book. Well. I feel a certain kind of way about it because when I get pulled over, they treat me the same way as they were treating their brother yesterday, um, a couple of weeks ago on rose cramps.

They treat you like they treat every brother, every educated brother that knows the Lord and that knows them, And that's against them, and they know it because they know who I am when they're pulling me over, because they running my plates and exactly. And that's a dangerous thing for you, Doug, because if they know you and they know you against them, they're gonna funk with you every time. I'm not against them, I'm really not against the police

at all. You're not against them, But when you go to court to help this person get off, to help that that's not guilty, that's not guilty, that goes against everything that they stand for, that they believe in what they're doing when they're on the street. Well, I only go to court and help the ones where I feel that the police officers are not telling the truth on the stand if I sit there in court, because I usually sit in court first and watch them, and then

I make a decision with the lawyer. If I'm gonna go up and challenge them, I'll tell the lawyer, you know what, that cop kept in a hunting. There's really nothing that I can say that it's gonna help his case. He kept in a hunting because I don't testify in every single case. I've worked on five hundred and maybe twenty cases, and I've testified in a hundred of them, So that's over four hundred that I didn't testify him.

And that's usually either it went to um they they played it out or actually watched the cop and said, oh, you know what, the cop kept it real. And I'm not gonna say if you made three man, that's true. So it only takes that one it all right? Um, last bit of news I want to cover here is that the Texas court halted an execution man. There was an execution supposed to happen. I don't know what the

date was. I think it's supposed to happen this week would be No, they would be like today, I believe no, no, no, you're right, would be would be Saturday, So he would have he would have been executed in a couple more days. But a lot of people rallied behind this dude said that there was some other evidence that pointed in another direction, and we were all just like on the edge waiting

to hear what was gonna happen. And the judge stayed the execution of Rodney Reid, a brother that that may be innocent of of this murder that they said he did back in the day. And guess who they're pointing the finger at as the possible suspect in this case. You go, you're gonna be blown away. James a cop, another cop that ended up raping someone after and and then went to prison for ten years. And now it's all coming together that this cop had crossed paths with

the same woman. I think it was his girlfriend or ex or something, And so now they're saying that maybe this cop killed this girl and it wasn't Rodney Read that did it, because Rodney Read said I had nothing to do with this head years slept with the girl. And he said, yeah, I slept with her. That's why y'are here. And they took him to jail for murder. They did. That was the only DNA they said they had at the time, and the girl's name was Stacy

States of Bastard, Texas. And um, you know, they're gonna start going through this DNA hopefully and we'll they'll be able to answer some of these questions. But for now, he is not getting executed. And you know, I hope the brother is in a center because then he can come home. Man, how many brothers you had then come home already after doing thirty and forty years And then people think that that this two hundred thousand, three hundred thousand dollars is cool. Yeah, hit't not in your pocket.

But I just lost forty years of my life. Man? Is that that? That's unacceptable? Man? And I don't see why how people we can say, Okay, I I'm compensated for that. Ain't know, gena, how many kids these men would have had in between them. You know what I'm saying, This brother right here, how his life would have been well if he found not guilty of this case, he's gonna be compensated for every year he's been down. And now you just said it. There's nothing you can give me.

You gotta get something that what I mean getting the money, okay, but they have to do better than locking me up for forty fucking years and then at the end of the day say, okay, you didn't do this. You know, At first I want to say these mistakes need to end. But it's not even mistakes because sometimes I had a case where the prosecutor was presented with evidence in the middle of the trial that this person wasn't the shooter who we were defending. It was a fact this person

wasn't the shooter. Middle of trial, So what do you expect? You expect the prosecutors say, you know what, your honor, I'm gonna dismiss the charges against this defending because we got new evidence that someone else was don't have Uh, they're not built like that. She said, you know what, we are continuing with this case. I am going to prosecute this case. The same way all along and guess what our verdict was. My goodness, we gotta not guilty

on that one. And at the end of the day, the real dude who did it never got you know, punished for it, and they damn near put an innocame person in jail for it. So it's not even mistakes. It's like they don't care once they once that ball starts rolling, it's not stopping. A prosecutor is a fabricator. A prosecutor can get this paper, this is the evidence we have, and they have to make you believe that

this is real ship they fabricated. They don't know me, they wouldn't have the scene in the crime, but this is what you give me. I'm gonna make the jury believe that this is what it is. That's all. They are fabricators. Well, I want to say that for all prosecutors, but there's been There are a lot that I would put in that category down how many of them can honestly say, oh, this ship don't sound right, this is

not the guy the height that the No. Well, let's see if you take a deal and they keep volding. If you take a deal and nine times out of team what I've dumb ask this. We take deals for ship we didn't do just to get it over with because we know if I take it to trial, I'm gonna get thirty. That's so much what we're gonna take this too. That's one of the saddest parts of me hollering.

Had a lot of these dudes in these interviews. I've had so many brothers tell me Alex, I took that eight year deal because they were trying to get me forty and I'd rather just do the eight years even though I wasn't guilty of it, than sit there and do forty. But there's a lot of brothers shit in prison with fifty years and they could have got five. I didn't want to take that five because they know

they didn't do it. And I'm gonna beat this ship and then we get those jail house lawyers and we know we want But then at the end of the day, I got fifty years, you know what I'm saying. So you still at a at a no win situation because you believe in the system. You know I'm not gonna get found guilty. All y'all got to do is look at my own dish as well as what you got here.

It's not right, but they don't do that. The name of the police officer that they're now linking to, uh, this Texas murder of Miss Tites as Jimmy Fennel, a white police officer who was actually engaged to the victim. And I think what happened is white. Well the victim was a white woman, but I think Reid was messing with Rodney. Reid was messing with her, but she was engaged to this cop, and the cop must have found out and killed her and and let Rodney read go

to prison. Ford. That's just a short version of it. And this happened back in ninety six. So how many years he's been in prison now, that's twenty that's twenty three, well, yeah, twenty three years. He's been sitting on death row since, so that's twenty one years. So now, and then years later, Jimmy Fennel, this police officer, gets charged with a rape, a rape and assault and does ten years in prison. So now they're looking at him. They're looking at him now,

get you know, they're looking at him now. And thank goodness that Rodney Reid's case, at least for now has been temporarily halted. Uh, it doesn't mean that he won't get back on death throw. It's just for now he got to stay. I don't and that's not a permanent day is definitely good. He three day, he would have been dead. And and Texas don't play. They execute Texas in Florida execute more people in any state. Yeah. All right, UM, let's answer a few questions from our listeners from the

Gangster Chronicle listeners. The first one I'm gonna throw out there is from King Hem on Apple Podcast. Thanks for leaving this question. The question is while Reggie is gone, who will replace him? Nobody? Uh? I think and I believe that me and Alex can handle this until Reggie come.

One of the main reasons why we don't need nobody else, because if Reggie is going to say six months, that person we put in that seat might believe that they deserved that seat and don't think Reggie should come back. We're gonna have a problem if you don't think you're going on asked that seat. Um, I think we should

just leave it vacant and do us. Uh. Reggie is still getting everything as if he was still here today and we were good with our situation until you the people start saying that, oh no, we need this and that, then that's when we're gonna start changing up ship. But I think, uh, Alex is well educated and understand the game and and and I'm learning, I'm I'm getting in it old and your and your personal experience living you can pretty much address all these points we're talking about

pretty much, you know. So I think we're good until y'all say otherwise. But at this point right now, I don't think nobody is is ready to feel Reggie shoes. I agree. And one of the reasons why I took this job it was because I loved the fact that the trio that we created, You and Reggie are an amazing uh entities to just listen, to go back and forth and we'll be in the middle. I just love

just like basically playing referee most of the time. And that's one of the things I missed arguing with rich Man, So he definitely he definitely missed. You know. It was a comment and against the chronicles that you know, we forgot about Reggie ain't no where in the world. And I'm gonna chell y'all on my mama. Uh And and when the world, Reggie gonna be forgotten or can be forgotten. It's like, Reggie is here with us right down the day. Reggie gonna have his days where he can call in Reggie.

Reggie ain't missing a dollar if I make five, Reggie make five if you feel me. So Reggie ain't missing nothing, and his money is going as long as we're making it. Whatever we get and got that he's part of the team and the team can't be broken. So whatever we're doing, we're making sure Reggie get here, is making sure Reggie take care of his family. So I don't think nobody can come in between this trio and and say is

this way or that way? You're on the outside looking in, and I'm telling you, Reggie ain't going on where Reggie has missed. Every time I look over in that seat and he not here, it's like wow. But Reggie had to do what Reggie had to do. So you got James and Alex keeping it going until Reggie come home. And when Reggie come home, Reggie coming home to something and something bigger than when he left. So we're good, were good, but we don't need nobody else. Absolutely, Uh,

I completely agree with that. Uh. The show is definitely not the same without Reggie, And you know, we're gonna hold it down and we're gonna mix it up where you're gonna get an episode just like today's episode where it's just me and James chopping it up about whatever is going on. But then every once in a while we'll throw in an interview, we'll throw in a guest,

like we did last week with t. K. Kirkland. You know how many people can get t K. Kirkland like that, you know, and we could probably get We can get him anytime we want, you know, if y'all want to hear him spit some more gems and more game, we could bring him on again. Um, the week before that we had a mafia associate or e Spado. But when Reggie comes home, we're gonna go back to the format that that got us where we're at TODA, you know,

because we didn't get here by doing interviews. Um, even though we had glasses come on, Glasses Malone came on. And who else did we have after um the glasses we had? Um here, Yeah, we have black. We had quite a few people, but most of the time it's just us three chopping it up and I can't wait to get back to that. And that's really, um, what I look forward to every time I come drive to the studio, man, because I gotta argue with somebody, I

gotta argue about somebody. Uh. Basically, me and Alex pretty much see out of eye on some of these things we talked about, but I need Reggie input because, uh, me and Reggie don't see how that I on certain things. And that's what made me understand Reggie more and him understanding me more. I don't care how long we knew each other, but we just don't see how that I on certain things. And that's what that's that's what makes the click real real. So we're gonna we're gonna just

try to keep you one hunter and do us. Definitely thank you on Apple podcast for that question. And again, um, if you want your question answer, just go to any of the platforms, either Instagram or Apple podcasts and ask us a question. As we're going to the next one here. This is from Duane Davis on Facebook. Uh, James, who are the homies that rolled with Sugar in the movie All Eyes on Me? I'm asking because I know you rolled with Sugar and your brother Bunty did too, even

though the names are never mentioned in the movie. I was wondering if those guys were supposed to be y'all those guys were supposed to be sugared bodyguards. Yes, and the ones that were sugar at that time was Bounty. Uh. Some of these guys, I don't even know if they want me to name them, but uh, I'm gonna just

abbreviate and be uh uh ge um gee. Just I mean, it was it was just you know, although it was the homies there, but and they didn't say no names because they couldn't because nobody gave him a right to do mamo whatever the technical ship was. But yeah, those was the homies, uh, outing and all of those cats uh that was supposed to been in there, just like those guys that portrayed Sugan and death ro Security Entourage or whatever and uh and uh straight out of Compton.

So yes, it was those was the homies. What about Heron you can say him because he's well, yeah, we're hamming on hand dog, you know, all of those guys. But I'm just gonna be I'm just respecting the guys that's still here and might not want their name, you know, put out there because they might have some legal ship going on with you know, people putting them out there

like that. But that's one of the reasons why they didn't put the names get them titles in that movie because you know, none of the homies was was uh compensated for that, so nobody got paid. So not one single person of Shugs Circles names were set in the movie.

That's crazy, and and and and the crazy thing about both of those movies is they made it made the Bluffs look like they wouldn't ship and it's it pitched you off because my whole thing, if those dudes would have kept it one hunter, if Dre would have kept it one hunting, then you have seen something better than what you saw. You know, Dre ain't beating up ship and and they got him beating up on you know, these badass niggers that everybody talking about Sugar had And

it's crazy. So that was them though. That was yeah, that was that was supposed to be the homeless. What was your overall view of the All Eyes on Me movie. That's the one that was directed by Benny Boom And I think LT. Hutton was a big producer on that movie. Huh. I don't even want to go there, but it was. It was. I mean, it's it's what y'alls, so it's what a lot of people didn't like it. A lot

of people didn't like it, just like Gangster Chronicles. I mean, it was a lot of ship in that movie that the truth wasn't told. And it makes you think who writing this ship? I'll tell you right now was written by Jeremy Haft, Eddie Gonzalez and Stephen Somebody had to tell him this ship, put this ship together, and goddamn, I mean you gotta know that this ain't this ain't how it was. Now. That's it, man, I don't I don't even want to. All right, enough set about the

All Lies on Me movie? Uh So, thanks Dwayne Davis on Facebook, and yes, let me remind everybody the Gangster Chronicles podcast does have a Facebook page, so you can go there and leave a comment or question if Facebook is your social media of choice. We got another question here from Castle on Apple iTunes. Did Tupac have to get jumped in or do anything to be a part of the mob or did his money just do it for him? Okay, I'm gonna take a second and breathe

on this one. Now, this is obviously a question from an out of towner, maybe someone from another country, But every time I use Tupac in the sentence, people take it wrong and wrong with it. Tupac was kicking it with Mounttery, Trey and all of them, which he was accepted by the homies. Was he a full fledged my Paru gang member out there? Bam bam. No, did Tupac had to come and and and lock up with four

of the homies to to to be a part of this. No, my personal opinion don't matter at this point because Tupac is gone. So no, Tupac didn't have to get jumped in because it isn't even like that. Um. His money didn't have nothing to do with what he wanted to do or be a part of the mob, because it wasn't him hanging in the neighborhood. It was Tupac doing Tupac Studios ship ship that they did outside of Compton.

So to answer your questions, no, it didn't have nothing to do with jumpany man or him spending his money. What he did with his money was was you know, and he was good because he looked up for some of the homies and they was doing their thing party and whatever. But no, you don't have nothing to do with the mob. Now, people are real sensitive when you, or even me, I've said a couple of things about Poc.

I got nothing against Pac, but I might say something that's just my opinion, and before I know it, I got ten people in the damn d MS putting me. And this is why, this is why I tried to rephrased not to go here, not to go not to go right or left because of how people their perspective of what they think Tupac is or should be. So I try to answer it where we all can get along, you know. And that's normally and me I normally tell you straight out, hell no, you ain't from the motherfucking

hood something like that. But no, no, uh, Tupac didn't have to be jumped in. Tupac was doing what he did best, and he was hanging with the homies. He was accepted by the homies and they and they kicked it and did you know, ship together. So you would have to get a bunch of you would have to get a trade, you would have to get a bone, you would have to get somebody that dealt with Tupac on that level to too even associating associate him with

the Hood. Me personally, I can't know. He wasn't He wasn't from the and he didn't have to go through none of those things to to be a part of them. Now, I posted uh interview another segment of the interview, and I did, and it was the one where you were the part where you were standing in front of Akin's Market and we had a conversation about Pac and you you said in the interview that, um, he was at PARC, was acting like he was from Mob when he should

have when he was the main artist. And man, there's there's over a thousand comments on this video, and at least I don't know twenty percent of them are saying that you're feeling some sort of hatred or negativity towards Pac to say that, there's no way I mean Tupac. Let me let me explain it to y'all. And it's a time friend, Tupac was with or hung out with the Mob or death Row for ten eleven months, not even a year, not even that long. For for if it did you even go there, why could I be

jealous or should I be jealous of Tupac? All I've ever said was the home you should have protected Tupac better than they did. All I said was, uh, Tupac was the money bag for death Row. Why the hell is he out here acting like goddamn thug when this is my job? Do my job? Absolutely, you know what I'm saying. So to what you're saying would have actually saved his life exactly exactly. And the people are hating

on what you're saying, no sense. And I said all the time, man, you know the brother, the brother was gifted, the brother had he his talent was like, man, if people would have really seen this dude, I mean the ship y'all here, but the things that they do he do or he done, you know he didn't have to do that. Tupac, You're about to be ship. Uh you already a million man. You're making money so you don't have to worry about ship. So make your money and

be who you are you as an artist. If and and I said again, if if, if Tupac was still alive, maybe she would have totally been different. But when you when they cut their head, their head off, the chicken, everything else failed. There's no death road, there's no bounties, there's no handdogs. Everything died. And I'm gonna say this again. Everything died. So you can't tell me I'm wrong. It's a proven fact. Yeah. People are just sensitive about pocket

and I understand. I have no reason to hate the man. I'm just trying to keep it one honey. If Tupac would have said his ass, then no, let me rephrase that. If sheoug would have kept it one, hunted and carried, he should have told him this ain't you fight. You get over there. And then the security guards that they had their protect him. Why the gang members, the homies went in took care of that business. This was some comforting ship. When this ship happened, we had We had

war with these cats. That's our fucking job. What how the fund Can you call me a game banger and I ain't over there attacking these niggas. I'm not a game banger. You don't let it slide. Your niggas attacked one of the homies and everybody should have been on that motherfucking page. Nigga, y'all here, we here, it's on. It didn't happen like that, Tupac took off. And I say, if Tupac would have did that, Tupac would still be here. Maybe you'd have had another incident along the line somewhere,

but he went it lost his life that night. That was on Sugar and and and the homies. All you niggas got on mild rings. All uniggas is in the hood. The homies should have handled that. Did you ever talk to your brother about that? Because he's on the video actually kicking and joining into when he could have been. He's one of the ogs. He should have grabbed him and did the same thing at one point. And I don't never speak on what bunch you did or said, but yeah, he was in the video and and everybody

see that. But it's too late this after the fact. Y'all should have jumped on that before that dude did brackpacking and ship. Everybody knows that. Ain't I get down? And then what's not getting down? Especially if and you get up and walk away? Because you know what Orlando saying when he gets to the hood. The mob dudes all rap. They packed me out exactly, I'll buy myself and they packed me out. Couldn't even get a fair one,

you know. And and in Tupac hit him, so he felt and I'm and I'm just I'm just saying this is like you new he couldn't and a'thing to go back to the hood, saying I think a Tupac with my ass that's gonna stay with him forever. I mean him being him or or being with it should I say, he felt, man, I gotta do something. I gotta do something. So you know, you you look at the videos that Glasses made, which is he depicted damn that half of

the ship like it was that it went down. But then you got these other three cats in the car, which any one of them cats could have did what they did. I don't even what position you holding that in the vehicle, you got opportunity didn't get a motherfucker didn't happen that way. So then mother motherfucker's ain't gut said to say, you know what I'm saying. But yeah,

Tupac was a good cat man. And I still say today that Tupac would still be here if if, if sugar them would have protected him better than what they did. Instead of letting him run a mark and and be one of us or act like one of us, he should have treated him and kept him well kept like you do your other artists, and and and it's supposed

to be good now. One of the comments that I get a lot on this video, the recent video that I put up with you, is that James is feeling salty because Poc didn't shout you out in the Living Dye in l a song, and he shout it out like four or five of the Maja par rouse Up could have shared every name in the book from the homage in the hood. Man, I don't need I don't need no picture. I don't need to pose with you. I don't need to hang out what you will pretend

we're on the same page. I don't. I don't need my name called out m ob period. I don't. I don't need none of that. I'm not I was in a groupie ain't one now, and I never will be so for for people to even say I'm salty. Man, I would have been mad if you gave everybody some money and didn't didn't get Yeah. Yeah, I have felt a certain kind of weight. But man, I'm a grown ass motherfucking man, So you ain't caring about no lyrics in the song and whose name is mentioned at all

at all. I mean, I feel like your brother's name is mentioned. That's good enough. You know, you introduced your brother to the whole death Rows family, and and what he did and how he did his ship was his business, in his way of of of conducting his business. He was a grown ass man. But man, ain't no song gonna make me. I didn't get paid for them. Nobody got paid for their name being in the motherfucker. Why

would I be mad? Man? Come on, you know, I just think people have to find something to say about somebody when when when they hear what a mother got to say? Either except what the funk I said, or just keep it pushing, keep it pushing. I ain't mad at you, and I ain't gonna be mad at now. Motherfucker that had that got a right to voice their opinion. But it's the proof is in the pudding. Have you

ever heard that before? That criticism, that um that I'm getting on these comments and I'm just too much anger and and and that hell yeah, I had anger. My anger was from losing my brother. My anger was from bringing my brother to a situation now his life is gone. You know what I'm saying, I wouldn't my brother's keeper. That's my biggest fucking down phone, me bringing my brother to a situation. Feel me. That's the only thing I

give a funk about. My relationship with shugk angered me because at one point we were one hunted and then we fell off to bam. My anger is losing all of the homies and the way we are today behind this bullshit. That's my motherfucking ain't it. But other than that, man, I ain't let me stop crushing too, because it's shud custom much. But no, I'm not mad at nobody. I ain't hate nobody, and I'm working on all of that ship,

you know what I'm saying on a daily basis. So I got bigger things to fry than be mad or be or let anybody think that I was mad at Tupac. I have no reason to be mad at Tupac. I stayed mad at Sugar all the time and ain't got a problem saying it, but not one time Tupac and never did nothing wrong with me, never, So why the funk would I be mad at him? I agree. I think some of the comments are just die hard pop fans that are just sensitive of anything that even sounds

remotely negative. I don't even think in the interview that I posted on Street TV that you even said anything negative. No, it wasn't negative at all. It was just explaining what happened and what the big homies should have been doing. That's all it was. People relax and and and people need to understand this what other people say that was there. It's cool to voice your opinion, but if you don't know what the fun is going on and you can't

validate other ship something, you just don't say. You know what I'm saying, I have no reason to hate on a Tupac. I have no reason to hate. Yeah, dude, kind of well, I know I don't hate? Should me? And should I'm I'm in a bit of Yeah, you've been trying to, like my situation with that. You've been trying to like ease your negative feelings towards Shore for the last few months, because you even shot him a

few bucks, didn't you. I sent him two hundred and fifty bucks, and I sent him that because when I came home, I know what it's like being in prison, you know what I'm saying, And me thinking that, Okay, she don't if she didn't have the money. Okay, let me send you two hundred fifty bucks and this will hold you for a minute. You're going for the store or whatever, so me coming home and she'll be looking

out for me. I appreciated that. I'll never forget the day you came to my door and looked out for me. That's when you first came home from prison. When I first came home day one, and the cast that I was working with doing all of these illegal activities, Shook was there first. So I appreciate him for that, and that's why I did that. But and he used to break your mom off too, right, he was. He was

there at one point for my mom's uh, him and Olson. Um. He did a lot of good things and then he you know, he did some a lot of faulty ship. You know, Sugar is just like every other nigger that woke this planet. He ain't the only one that that's like that. I I put myself in that category that situation, like said, we all fucked up. It ain't just him.

But I got reasons to be mad. If he had reason to be mad, then all right, I'm just waiting for that day with me and him can have a conversation and I can tell him how I feel about certain ship, and he can tell me how he feels, and then I think it'd all be good. But other than until then, can't nobody speak for me? Can't nobody speak for Sugar? And it is what it is? You know, all of these guys that Ryan Shugar digging and saying on nigga hate no Sugar, nigga this and that man,

you don't know me. You don't know what me and Sugar relationship was. Shut the funk up, Shut the funk up. You know, it's it's whatever, it's whatever. Let me because I'm getting mad. But you know, mother Bucker's just talked because they want to just talk. They want their voice to be heard. I ain't trying to do that now. I think it's good that you don't actually read the comments under any of the interviews you've done, because it's gonna get you going. I'm just tired of it. You know.

If you want to talk, talk, But Nick's being one hundred and being man about this ship, especially if they street niggas and claim to be this and that man, do what the funk you gotta do. I'm I'm I'm I'm gonna do what I gotta do. I don't have a choice. I don't have a choice in the matter. So it is what it is. But all this conversation bullshit and all of them comments funked up in all of this other ship. Roll with it, roll with it.

Just keep you one hunted. You know, it's incredible out of this whole episode in your life and and the the Death Row chapters that as you said earlier, Park was only there for like ten or eleven months, and it seems like the brother was there for years. Would seemed like that, but in reality, he didn't have a he didn't have enough time to to grow. Even if he wanted to do the hood ship, he didn't have

enough time for that. You know what I'm saying. Tupac didn't come in the hood and hanging funk with the little hommies. Tuparc hung with the death Row situation. Those guys got to know Tupac, you know what I'm saying. Those guys funk with him. You know what I'm saying now, it wasn't a mob Dan, it was the homie thing. So he was a part of the homies, not part

of the mob. So when when I say that, I'm not taking nothing away from that man, from that man being a gatester, from what what he doing, because what they did, he did it, he did it. But being from a hood or being saying I'm from something, no, you're not. And they just need to understand that if y'all was like gang bangers, if you all know the motherfucking cold, you're not from Compton. You're not a gang member. Motherfucker shouldn't understand that ship. You know what I'm saying,

you you ain't. You can't be this typing again and then be that typing again. It ain't gonna work. They're gonna clash. And then you gotta really, at that point, bam, decide when the fun you're gonna be or what type of nigger are you? You gotta figure that ship out right then and there are you're gonna lose. You're gonna lose.

So I mean, man, all of those guys out there that know that they would the business or they know the gang ship and the gangster ship, come on, man, they know I'm I'm right, So let's just keep in one hunt and call it what it is. All of this this, this, this, this cloud chasing and all that ship. I don't have no clue about this ship. I don't have no clue about this ship, and I really don't give a funk about it. But if you know me

handing your motherfucking business, do your thing all right. Well, on this Thanksgiving episode, we're gonna kind of cut it short so we can get back to our families and enjoy the rest of this day.
