Transcripts For FOXNEWS Fox News Live 20241006

Todays event is expected to draw a massive crowd with notable guests in attendance including Elon Musk. Well take you there live in just minutes. Welcome to Fox News live, great to be with you, jackie. Jack im jacqui heinrich. The Death Toll continues to rise with over 2300 people as the southeast 230 the people tries to recover, and the southeast tries to recover, and so many are begging for help from the government. Madison scarpino is live in arden, North Carolina, with the latest for us on this. Hey, madison. Reporter right now were at the Landing And Tick Theoff Takeoff Spot for Samaritans Purse helicopters, using those choppers to drop off critical supplies to rural areas. Today we got to go on a ride with them and get an aerial with view of helenes afterhath. Were about to fly over chimney rock, North Carolina. Its one of the hardest hit areas. Some people are stuck there, and its basically cut off from the outside world. Now, this town is deep into the Appalachian Mountains close to lake lure, and the few roads in and out were washed away. We saw collapsed bridges, piles of debris and countless uprooted trees and destroyed homes. Chimney rock is just one of the many Mountain Communities that helene nearly destroyed. Now, Search And Rescue crews are still on the ground trying to find missing people. The majority of stories were hearing from survivors are neighbors helping neighbors. Some people say theyve already theyre already working with fee that to fema to the apply for assistance, but some havent seen or heard from the feds yet. Samaritans purse is one of of the many organizations that jumped in to help almost immediately. Everything, ultimately, is a decision about the allocation of resources. And that gets political. And i dont know whats going if on with the federal government, i dont want to criticize them, but i will say that it feels like its late. You know . If it feels like its late, more should have been done earlier. Reporter and while clean water is still the top priority here in western North Carolina, volunteer groups are also starting to send in starlinks and other technology. Some people in this area still dont have cell service. Back to you. Joey madison scarpino, Thank You. Griff joining us now from their headquarters in boone, North Carolina, president of Samaritans Purse, reverend franklin graham. Reverend, Thank You for taking time here. Im glad that madison could be at your takeoff and landing, and ive had the the Honor And Privilege of seeing Samaritans Purse in action in countless natural disaster locations. But you wrote in a christianed Today Post that really the devastation is beyond what you can see through your television set. What is it like there . If what is the situation on the ground, franklin . Griff, its, its a mess. Its probably worse than what you are actually seeing through the camera a lens because youve got the smells of just the flood and then its a swampy smell. But the people having to work in this and live in this, and theres no, you know, you cant expect the federal government to fix your problems. And thats what, you know, the politicians want you to think, that we can just vote for me and i can fix it. Well, they cant. It takes neighbor helping neighbor, it takes an army of volunteers and and people to come in and to help just get a house mudded out, to put a a tarp on a roof, the change a chainsaw and what were doing like with the helicopters. Were hauling water and medicines into these rural areas. And weve got, weve got helicopters flying all day long all over western North Carolina. And so grateful for companies and businesses like Joe Gibbs and people like this, rick hendrick, their business helicopters, theyve just loaned those, their pilots are flying with us and others doing the same thing that are just Coming Up and helping the haul water. And you think, you know, griff, you think, you know, is that a big deal, water . Well, one of my chaplains handed a lady two gones gallons of water the other day, and she broke down and cried. Two gallons of water and she cried. And it just, it people are desperate. But we, everything we do, griff, as you know, we want to do in Jesus Name. I want people the to know that god loves them, that that he hasnt forgotten them, that that he hasnt backed up and left them alone. Were there to the serve in Jesus Name and to to help as many people as we can. We have an army of volunteers this weekend. Were grateful for that. But were going to need this army of volunteers every day for weeks to come. And right now weve got good weather all of next week, so thisll be a good time to come if you can. We just, we need these volunteers to help clean up these houses. It makes such a huge difference for the people that were whose homes were working with. It gives them hope. And right now hope is in the little supply right now. Griff franklin, you talked about the water. Of course, the need for Water And Power and food. What are the most immediate needs, sheller, that youre seeing shelter, that youre seeing that people need there now . Well, theyre going to need shelter. Certainly, homes, people are not able to live in them. And you talk to people, they find out that theyre living with an aunt, an Thank Youing or cousin, you know uncle, cousin or some relative that theyre able to move into. So people are able to take care of themselves for the most part as far as trying to stay out of the rain. But, griff, its, its such a sad situation when you see a person that has lost everything that theyve worked for all their live. Life. And it may take them who knows how long to get it back. Ive heard of one man down in florida, he went through a storm a few years ago, and and this one wiped him up, and he said, i just cant do it again. He took his life. Just had lost all hope. And i dont want people to lose hope. These volunteers when they show up theres another lady, she was crying when we, when all of the volunteers got out of the van and walked up to her house to help her. She said im not crying because ive lost everything, she said im crying because hope has just showed up. And, of course, she was talking about those volunteers, they gave her hope. And thats what we want to do, help restore hope. And we want to do all this in Jesus Name. Griff such an important message, franklin. Let me ask you about the Governments Response. In madisons reporting just before this, she interviewed your logistical boss, Ken Isaacs. And full disclosure, ive seen Ken Isaacs set up logistics to disasters All Around The World from africa ca to, you name it, even the can covid Field Hospitals you guys set up in New York. Ken is among the most gifted and experienced in this business. I dont think Theres Anyone that has the level of experience he has. I say that because when he said the Governments Response seemed late, that means something. What is your impression of the Governments Response . If is it enough . Griff, thats hard to tell. Its never enough when you think about the scope of this. But we cant expect the government to fix all the problems that we have in life. Of course the governments going to be late. It takes them a while to get moving. But the church and the body of christ, its able to respond immediately and, of course, thats what we do. We work with the churches in every community, and the churches are there. And what were trying to do is get these starlinks, Elon Musk we got some today that dr. Phil has brought in. Weve got some others that we have bought. But we set up starlinks with these churches in these really rural areas and let the church be the Communication Hub because if there isnt communication. So if a person can come down to the or church and bring their Cell Phone, they can get email, they can make a call, they could let somebody know where they are. So were going to try to set up as many starlinks as we can in these rural areas and let the church with the hub be the hub. And when the power comes back up, so many of these communities dont have Internet Service anyway, and the church will have it. So this is going to be a good deal. Griff well, we sure appreciate your efforts, godseed to you, the organization spotspeed to you, the organization, Samaritans Purse. Godspeed. Our prayers for all the people there in North Carolina. Thank you, griff. God bless. Are. Griff god bless. And you can join fox forward in support of the Recovery Efforts following Hurricane Helene.

Jacqui well, give, for the first time since taking office, President Biden answer answered questions from the white House Briefing Room yesterday, but he did not address criticisms of his administrations Hurricane Helene response. David spunt has more for us from the White House. Hey, david. Reporter hey. He did say he would ask for more money from congress before his add if managers if leaves in administration leaves in less than four months. S this is something the administrations going the to have to focus on. People are def stated, millions of people still dealing with the effects of Hurricane Helene. President biden will head to the Camp David later today, hell be getting Briefing Updates on the Hurricane Helene recovery over the weekend. He walked into that Briefing Room yesterday, you were there right on the bottomleft of the screen. He answered a Hur Idea with of questions about people in the myriad of questions, and he did they congress is out until after the election and did mention that time is running out for the administration to help fix the destruction in the southern states. Listen. Were going to have to deal with unforeseen costs of what this hurricane is going to cost. Its going to cost a lot of money. And im going the to probably have the ask the congress before we leave for more money to deal with some of those problems. But that remains to be seen. Reporter the president also touting the deal reached with those striking at our nations ports for a brief time midweek, highlighting the major problem we could have run into as a country had we been in Hurricane Cleanup Mode and without those crucial imports coming through these ports. It was truly a service to the american people, for all these parties to come together, respond to our request to keep the ports open. I was determined to avert a crisis at this moment because its a critical moment. And if we didnt do this now, wed have a real problem. Reporter again, while at Camp David this weekend, the president will continue to get updates on Hurricane Helene. Also the latest on whats going on in the middle east. I mean, October 7th is two days away, and the White House is really torn here between different Franks Factions as we come up on this Oneyear Anniversary, ja acqui. Sphwhre jeff i think were still waiting for a lot of detailsen to mondays schedule, david. Thank you. Griff . Griff after a night of campaigning in michigan, Vice President harris will head to stormravaged North Carolina later today to see the damage first ahand. Lucas tomlinson is live on the ground in asheville, North Carolina, with more. Hey, lucas. Reporter good afternoon, griff. Vice president harris expected to arrive here in western North Carolina sometime this afternoon. Now here in Downtown Asheville in the River Art as district on a typical saturday in october, have people walking through the streets here, perhaps gabbing coffee, poking into some of the shops shops. Now people are digging out. You mentioned the Vice President Last Night in michigan, she took more shots at Donald Trump. If. We will not be fooled. We will not be Gaslight Ared gaslighted. Donald trumps Track Record is a disaster for working people. And hes trying to gaslight people all over our country. But with we know the facts we know the facts and we know the truth. He is an existential threat to the americas labor movement. Reporter theres no mention about Hurricane Helene in those remarks. Here in North Carolina, paratroopers in chinook helicopters in the 82nd Airborne from Fort Liberty have been ramping up missions to deliver badlyneeded aid. Critics say part of the active duty forces should have been ordered to assist much sooner. North Carolina Air national guard assets have completed 146 missions, they say, resulting in the rescue of over 530 people and 150 0 pets. Overnight 80,000 pounds of Relief Supplies were sent here to a hub in, asheville. Yesterday, governor Roy Cooper and Bidens Fema Director provided an update about the relief efforts. This unprecedented, catastrophic storm requires an unprecedented response, and were in the middle of that right now. One, theres a lot of misinformation about the fact that we are not going to have enough money because its being redirected elsewhere. Just plain false. We have everything you need, governor, everybody here in North Carolina, and we are going to be able to continue to provide that assistance as long as you need it. Reporter so Vice President harris expected to arrive here late this afternoon, once again on a typical fall day, these streets would be full. This is a town that relies on tourism, people love to come here to asheville, but residents are busy digging out. Griff . Jacqui well, we are just hours away from former President Trumps return to butler, pennsylvania, so how will this massive event be secured .

Griff former President Trump is returning to butler, pennsylvania, today as the same field where he was nearly assassinated less than three months ago. The rally expected to draw a massive crowd with many notable guests in attendance. Alexis mcadams, our reporter who covered that tragic event back in july, is back there as well in butler with more. Hi, alexis. Reporter hi, griff. Yeah, things look a little bit different now 12 the weeks later. You can see over my shoulder where the former president s going to take that stage for the second time on these fairgrounds in butler, pennsylvania, this time standing behind bulletproof glass. I talked to people who say they wanted to be here again for the return of the to former president to show their support, but they to do remember those major Security Failures that day. Listen. If. We thought we were safe when we went in here. I mean, really, you would think that a rally like that for trump would be one of the most protected places, right . Other than the sitting president s. But, yeah,s it was scary. Reporter and its going to be a very emotional rally for the thus of people who came back for the Return Including Former president Donald Trump there. He said he felt like he had to come here today and stand up on that stage because his job is not yet done. Were 30 days out now from the president ial election, griff, and you still remember that chaos from just weeks ago. Listen. [gunfire] [background sounds] reporter that was just some of the chaos that unfolded on stage weeks ago, shots ringing out as former president Donald Trump was speaking there. He fell to the ground after a bullet grazed his ear. A gunman was able to somehow just climb right up onto a nearby roof near the fairgrounds and open fire into the crowd. This time trump says security will be tight. Butler will be the safest place in the world. Reporter and this is a live look right now, you guy, at the memorial in the Stands Today to. You can see it there, that is the same spot where Corey Comperatore was sitting in july. The volunteer firefighter, the husband and dad, was shot and killed at this butler rally. He was just sitting there trying to shelter or shield, rather, his own family from the gunfire when it broke out. His family will be here today to, theyre going to be talking with former President Trump whos expected to honor him and two Otherral Low rallygoers who were shot and badly injured. It is eerie for a lot of people standing back in the same spot. This is where i was when we heard what sounded like fireworks, and now look at all the a chaos thats unfolded. Not just one attempted assassination, but one also just a few weeks ago. We know security will be top of mind here. Who else will be here today . Elon musk, j. D. Vance and a lot of other Family Members who want to be here on this historic day, griff. Griff alexis, im just struck when you show me that crowd, the pullback from that crowd. Trump it doesnt start until 5 p. M. Thats some five hours, and yet it looks like the rallys ready to go any moment. Reporter yeah. Thats kind of one of the main things, this rally, obviously, is going to feel a lot different the than some of the others, but one thing thats always consistent is how long news people get in line for. Its like, you know, a big concert or something. They stand in line for hours. They get here, like, 6, 7 in the morning, and he wont take the stage until 5 00, if that even happens. So these people want to be here today. On the other side of our cameras, the crowd is huge and growing. This is just the people who are going to have a seat, so that gives you a little bit of a glimpse of how big the crowd will be today. Griff iowa lex Alexis Mcadams a back in i butler, pa, Thank You. Jacqui for more on former President Trumps return to butler, pennsylvania, today, were joined by a member of the bipartisan Trump Assassination Attempt Task Force, ohio republican congressman dave joyce. Congressman, Thank You for being here. Really appreciate your time. Always a pleasure to be with you. Jacqui Thank You. So you know well, sir, the failures that precipitated the Assassination Attempt on the former president at butler including Communication Failures between Secret Service and local Law Enforcement, issues with drone technology, even problems with the Advance Staff that sort of created the conditions that allowed this to to happen. Can you walk us through what your committee discovered in its investigation and how thats been remedied for today . Well, certainly. One of the things that happened is when you have the Secret Service come to take over an event like that, local Law Enforcement, state and local Law Enforcement is there to help, but theyre under the Guy Dance of the Secret Service. Guidance. And in this case, theres so many failures on so many levels. The fact that they didnt do the a walk through even that day, two Sharp Shotter sharpshooters that were inside the Agr Building where the president was shot from, they were inside, and they had never communicated they were from another county, had never talked to anybody from the credit service. The fact that they had Command Posts up and they couldnt Secret Service and ems were on one and all the local Law Enforcement was in another one, they couldnt transfer information, the idea that this person was walking around, he was already considered suspicious in the photos were being transmitted Cell Phone to Cell Phone. And as you know, when you get in a could like this, Cell Phone transmissions just dont work. There should have been a live link, the the fact they didnt take a drone over or secure the perimeter of the facility, theres just so many failures. Im happy to see that Secret Service has since come out and said it was their ball and they dropped it, and im sure that theyre not going to leave any stone unturned today. Jacqui yeah. Theyve announced a couple of changes for todays rally. I just want to pull it up on our screen, it includes one Command Post and communication bridge, Law Enforcement are on top of the Agr Building, Security Manpower and surveillance drones. But as Alexis Mcadams just laid out to us, this event is really larger than the one 12 weeks ago in part because its such a powerful moment to have former president returning to the scene where he almost lost his life and people in that community wanting to, or you know, be part of this sort of symbolic and powerful return to show that hes not going to get, you know, pushed down by something like this. But given the size of todays rally, do you foresee any challenges, new challenges that maybe the agency needs to be extra aware of going into this . . Well, the facility itself is not ideal for these type of things. I mean, you have a Water Tower lurking in the back, you but im sure thats properly covered today to. You have the buildings to the side. And one thing we did, Chairman Kelly and Ranking Member had us go to the scene which i thought was invaluable because its one thing to read 110 feet, its quite another when all of us were on top of the rooftop to realize how close this person was to the president. So its important that you understand that the perimeter of this place has to be shut down. There has to be a way that they can communicate with each other in an effective way. And the other thing is that you have to do countersurveillance where you have people who watch the magna if tommer thes. Theyre not fullproof. But when people come up, lurk around outside of it, dont come in, theyre checking to see how the progress is going. Theyre working to see what the security is like. So you have to have people on the ground eyeballing the crowd on the way in and those who dont come in and making sure they follow them. This guy was out this with a range finder. I mean, that should have had police and dogs and everything else they could get on him right away because it just doesnt, it doesnt amount to the being the proactive Secret Service that weve had in the past. And theyve getted that they were reactive admitted. I dont know when they dropped the ball and went from proactive to reactive, but we need to be getting back to the being a proactive force that protects the president and the citizens who come to my district and from all over who are going to cheer for the president today. Jacqui lets hope he has a successful and powerful rally there in butler. Congressman, really quickly, youre on the Appropriations Committee and i thought it important just to get your reaction to the sort of criticism around fee that fema. Theres been some misrepresentation of how the appropriate appropriations works. There are different revenue streams for things like migrants and, you know, lebanon. But at the same time, when you have the Secretary Of State saying we just gave 157 million, i think, the lebanon and you have folks in asheville, North Carolina, you know, needing help, explain to us, you know, how that can happen and if you think that congress needs to reprioritize some of these things coming back next session. Look, we had 11. 8 billion 1. 8 billion that they could draw down before we put another 20 the billion in with a continuing resolution before we left town. And if they want to draw that down, the stream of money is there. But youre talking about agencies that are Underneath Director Mayorkas who, as weve seen everything that hes touched has been a failure. So theres a Funding Stream thats in place. And if they need more money, femas supposed the come back within 30 days to tell you what else theyre going to need if they needed more funding. The administration wants to get more funding on the table, then have them do that within 20 the days. They have the right to speed that up. But for us to come back and say were going to put more funds down when we dont know what the costs or projected costs are going to be the would be a waste of everyones time. Jacqui Thank You, congressman joyce, hope you have a good rest of your saturday. Pleasure to be with you. Griff Femas Response to Hurricane Helene is under scrutiny, and pressure is on former lawmakers to the pass new Disaster Funding you were just talking about. Well dig in deeper. Thats next.

[music playing] Griff Pressure is mounting on congress to approve another batch of money for fema after the widespread destruction of Hurricane Helene, and it is still playing catchup addressing older natural disasters. Chad pergram has that story. Reporter griff, fema has money to tackle helene, but the severity of the storm is bleeding femas coffers. That Worries Homeland Security secretary al a Listen Hand Degree mayorkas. Alejandro. We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. We do not have the funds, fema can does not have the funds to make it through the season. Reporter the Hurricane Season runs through november 30th. The storm may alter the congressional calculus for disaster relief. While congress is expected to reload fema just before christmas, it may need to pass a bill as soon as lawmakers return to washington in mid november. It will take some time to tabulate this tomorrow. Storm. Its one of the biggest in our history. Reporter lawmakers demand action now. Im more than willing to come back tomorrow from a legislative standpoint to make certain that we have the funding appropriated and ready to go. Reporter the Price Tag for helene could be massive. Some lawmakers believe the tomorrow gives congress an opportunity to recalibrate priorities. We give to 20 the billion a year to fema and, unfortunately, they have drained everything dry with all the illegal aliens coming in. Weve spent 202000 200 Billion in ukraine, we spend 25000 a month on all illegal aliens. Reporter there are different funds. Dhs says it was false the agency diverted money. The white House Accused Republicans of using the storm to died people before the election. Griff . Griff chad, Thank You. Jacqui a venezuelan Migrant And Member of the Tren De Aragua Criminal Gang is under arrest in New York after el allegedly making threats against Law Enforcement officers. C. B. Cotton is live in new York City with the latest for us. I reporter yeah, Sanctuary City policies back in the spotlight. This after the agency says correctional facilities here in the northeast released him back into the community twice. I. C. E. Says one of those instances came shortly after Law Enforcement arrested Javier Merchan in a March Drug and Gun Bust in the bronx. At the time, officers said he was one of eight migrants believed to be squatting in this home. Its are ridiculous. Thats what pisses me off the most, is the schools right there. Reporter is days after his arrest, i. C. E. Says it issued a detainer against his release with the new York City department of correction and come september, i. C. E. Says he was convicted on criminal possession of a firearm but released a day later despite the active i. C. E. Detainer in place. I. C. E. Says it wasnt until Last Friday when merchan, was taken back into custody. The agency says the fbi Task Force in New York alerted them do for Help Locating him after he allegedly made possible threats to local Law Enforcement. The director of i. C. E. s new York City Field Office called this entire situation, quote, unconscionable. Now, i. C. E. Says Merchan First came into the country more than two years ago near El Paso is, texas. I. C. E. Says federal officials released him back into the country on parole because there was detention limitations and and cassidy was limited capacity. The agency says he never reported back for processing. Jacqui wow. C. B. Cotton for us, Thank You. Griff . Griff for more were joined by former acting Dhs Deputy Secretary is and Senior Fellow at the center for renewing america, ken cucinelli. I want to get into the chaos at the border, but first, you were the acting Deputy Director at dhs, what is your reaction to mayorkas saying were out of money, we need more money . Look, in the Trump Administration, We Reprogram its called reprogramming. There are conditions to fit. But We Reprogrammed money to stop illegal immigrants from if coming into the united states. They spent fema money, and they keep denying it, but its the on the fema web site. They spent about A Billion dollars in the last year or two housing and transporting illegals in. So while the Trump Administration if was using what money it could scrape together to block illegal immigrants from coming in, the Biden And Harris administration has used Fema Dollars to pay them to come into the country. It is the exact opposite and using taxpayer dollars. And now it sure would be nice to have that billion dollars available as Helenes Destruction and the count just grows not just, sadly, the death count, but also the Property Damage and the Infrastructure Damage thats going to need to be repaired in areas of the country that, frankly, dont have a lot of resilience. Griff yeah. The devastation, unimaginable. I want to just shift gears a little bit and stay now on the Border Chaos because i was reporting this week on a number of bombshell reports, the latest one out of the House Judiciary Committee that reports cbp has encountered more than 1. 7 million special interest aliens. These are from countries like iran, iraq, afghanistan, libya, syria with significant ties to terrorism. Your reaction. My reaction is and i know this is hard for americans, were all americans, you and i, everybody watching probably this is going to hurt us for decades. Decades, were going to be paying the price for this. Look at how long hamas sat in wait before the October 7th attack on israel last year. 17 years they gathered up money, international aid money, right, that was used not for aiding the people of gaza, but to prepare for 17 years to strike as terrorists against israel. Folks, thats whos coming into this country. Lots and lots of those folks are being invited in and let in by Border Czar Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden and incompetent secretary mayorkas. This is going to be deadly for years to come. Griff and we have reported previously on the fact that the number of individuals hitting that Terror Screening Watch list up 3300 . 11 for the trump years, 382 for the biden administration. Final word, how concern should our officials be . Even somebody like Christopher Wray has saids this is one of the most dramatic national security threats that america has right now. And i agree with him on that. And it is a late tent one latent one. Again, were americans, we want to see the problem. This is a secret problem that this administration has allowed to grow like No One before them of either party. They are shattering records for letting evil, destructive, vicious people who hate america into this country, and were going to pay a price for many years to come. Its very sad and its very dangerous. Griff and i hope you are wrong, although me too. Griff it is very concerning, indeed. Ken cucinelli, Thank You for your time. Good to be with you. Jacqui Coming Up next, well take you live to North Carolina for the very latest on the rescue efforts happening there. Stay with us. Griff as the Oneyear Anniversary of the October 7th massacre approaches, israel is now fighting on multiple fronts. The the idf says Today Theyve killed two more senior hamas leaders.

I after spending more three decades behind bars, the brothers have new hope. Theyre serving a Life Sentence without parole for the 1989 Shotgun Slayings of their wealthy parents in a Beverly Hills mansion. The Menendez Brothers admitted to killing their parents. Prosecutors say they murdered their Mom And Dad to get ahold of their roughly 14 Million estate, but the defense argued that they acted out in selfdefense after suffering years of emotional and physical abuse by their parents including Sexual Abuse by their father.

George gascon announced it could determine whether a resentencing is warranted in this case. We have not decided on the outcome. We are reviewing the information. But i think its also important that we recognize that both men and women can be the victims of Sexual Assault. We have been given evidence. We have been given a photocopy of a letter that allegedly was center by one of the letters to another Family Member talking about him being the the victim of molestation. Reporter the brothers attorneys are asking the court to vacate the case. They say the brothers may not have been convicted of Firstdegree Murder Today due to the publics change in views on Sexual Assault. Their high Profile Murder Trial garnered national attention back in the 90, and its back in the spotlight since its being covered in a netflix docuseries. Also, Kim Kardashian is calling for the lease of the menendez brother, drawing even more attention to this. She posted, you know, her plea on instagram. And well see what happens next now that the d. A. s office is reviewing new evidence in this case. Jacqui Christina Coleman for us, Thank You. You know, griff, as we were talking before the show, this is a really interesting sort of docudrama. If you havent watched it, i would encourage you to because there is something to the narrative that this case might have been handled differently if it were done today. Griff i have two more episodes to go. I remember when this happened, and i think specifically because of what christina was talking about, No One knows this case, particularly anyone under the age of 40. But all of a sudden because of netflix, they do, and they see the horrific what is alleged to be sexual and emotional abuse by these parents. Add to that now the community, everybody knows about it, Kim Kardashian is rallying the freedom call. I think this is going to get a lot of attention. Who knows, perhaps some judge could decide to say time served is good enough and let em out. Jacqui and itll be really interesting to see what all that new evidence is, especially because i dont think weve seen a whole lot of detail this. And it would, you know, raise the question of why that wasnt admitted this many years ago, because theyve been in jail ever since. Griff that was the the ding of Someone Texting you right now listening to us saying, yes, of course theyre getting out. [laughter] it just shows how interested people are in this story. And you cant overstate how much the views of Sexual Assault and emotional abuse cases, the Publics View has a changed very drastically in the last 35 years from what it was then the what what it is now. Its going to be something to follow. All right. Much more ahead. Well take you back to North Carolina and the efforts there and the devastation.
