00:00:41,911 --> 00:00:43,111
Elkhart 9-1-1.
2
00:00:43,217 --> 00:00:43,782
- What is your emergency?
- I...
3
00:00:43,913 --> 00:00:45,654
I just shot two guys.
4
00:00:45,784 --> 00:00:47,066
- Shot two people?
- Yes.
5
00:00:47,090 --> 00:00:48,091
They broke into my house.
6
00:00:48,222 --> 00:00:50,050
I'm holding a gun on
the people right now.
7
00:00:50,180 --> 00:00:51,660
Are they in the house?
8
00:00:51,747 --> 00:00:52,269
Yes. They're in the house right now.
9
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,183
They're in the closet.
10
00:00:53,314 --> 00:00:54,619
Hurry up. Please.
11
00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:55,577
OK, don't hang up.
12
00:00:55,707 --> 00:00:56,882
What's your name?
13
00:00:57,013 --> 00:00:58,034
Rodney Scott.
14
00:00:58,058 --> 00:00:58,710
Rodney?
15
00:00:58,841 --> 00:00:59,992
Yeah.
16
00:01:00,016 --> 00:01:01,341
Rodney, put the gun down, OK?
17
00:01:01,365 --> 00:01:01,974
Get back.
18
00:01:02,105 --> 00:01:02,888
R... Rodney.
19
00:01:03,019 --> 00:01:04,083
Get back.
20
00:01:04,107 --> 00:01:05,747
Brother, ain't you
from across the street?
21
00:01:23,909 --> 00:01:26,260
Elkhart, Indiana.
22
00:01:26,390 --> 00:01:27,870
It's, um, very small.
23
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,612
Really small.
24
00:01:30,742 --> 00:01:34,050
You don't realize it's as
smallas what it is, but it is small.
25
00:01:38,924 --> 00:01:41,275
Sometimes the only thing
hereto do is maybe go to the bar.
26
00:01:41,405 --> 00:01:44,843
And you don't want to
get in trouble here.
27
00:01:44,974 --> 00:01:48,499
We have quotes about Elkhart,
like you come here on vacation,
28
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:52,590
and you can't leave
becauseyou end up on probation.
29
00:01:52,721 --> 00:01:55,898
Yeah, it's just a
small town that seems
30
00:01:56,028 --> 00:01:57,334
like everybody knows everybody.
31
00:02:01,338 --> 00:02:03,079
I've lived a big
chunk of my life
32
00:02:03,210 --> 00:02:06,387
on Frances Avenue in Elkhart.
33
00:02:06,517 --> 00:02:10,521
I lived with my parents growingup
on the other end of Frances.
34
00:02:10,652 --> 00:02:14,177
We did move out of thearea,
but then I came back.
35
00:02:18,529 --> 00:02:20,575
As a young teenager,
a younger age,
36
00:02:20,705 --> 00:02:21,905
I would be at the roller rink.
37
00:02:22,011 --> 00:02:24,579
We all did the
roller rink thing.
38
00:02:24,709 --> 00:02:27,495
We did have a small mall
not too far from here
39
00:02:27,625 --> 00:02:29,671
that we would hang out at.
40
00:02:29,801 --> 00:02:31,499
But there still
wasn't a lot to do.
41
00:02:31,629 --> 00:02:34,980
So of course we had
ourparties and underage drinking
42
00:02:35,111 --> 00:02:36,895
issues and things like that.
43
00:02:43,337 --> 00:02:46,862
At 16, I was hanging
outwith a good friend of mine.
44
00:02:46,992 --> 00:02:49,430
And her brother was
also close to our age.
45
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,389
And things led to
things, and we end
46
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,652
up getting pregnant with Blake.
47
00:02:54,783 --> 00:02:59,222
And, of course,
either oneof us were quite ready.
48
00:02:59,353 --> 00:03:05,185
So I stepped up to be
thesingle mother that I had to be.
49
00:03:05,315 --> 00:03:06,795
Went to school... high school.
50
00:03:06,925 --> 00:03:10,755
After high school,
went toa part-time job every day.
51
00:03:10,886 --> 00:03:12,166
And Blake did
everything with me.
52
00:03:12,192 --> 00:03:13,628
Blake was at my graduation.
53
00:03:13,758 --> 00:03:16,326
Blake was in my senior pictures.
54
00:03:16,457 --> 00:03:19,590
I remember I didn't
go to my junior prom
55
00:03:19,721 --> 00:03:22,593
because I was practicallya
labor at the time.
56
00:03:22,724 --> 00:03:25,640
It was real close to thesame
time that the prom was.
57
00:03:25,770 --> 00:03:27,772
I did make it to my senior
prom, so that was nice.
58
00:03:27,903 --> 00:03:30,819
But yeah, it was...
It wasn't easy being
59
00:03:30,949 --> 00:03:31,949
a single young mother.
60
00:03:42,831 --> 00:03:43,701
But I grew up with Blake.
61
00:03:43,832 --> 00:03:46,138
Blake was my everything.
62
00:03:46,269 --> 00:03:47,509
I've never lived without Blake.
63
00:03:50,969 --> 00:03:52,406
He was my sidekick.
64
00:03:52,536 --> 00:03:55,060
No matter where I
was, Blake was there.
65
00:03:55,191 --> 00:03:56,497
I think that's the hardest part.
66
00:03:56,627 --> 00:03:59,151
It's like we've kind
of grown up together.
67
00:03:59,282 --> 00:04:01,347
And he's always been a bighelp,
helping with his brother
68
00:04:01,371 --> 00:04:02,371
and sister, too.
69
00:04:06,289 --> 00:04:11,076
That day, I got a phone
callthat there was an incident that
70
00:04:11,207 --> 00:04:12,817
happened a few
blocks from our house
71
00:04:12,948 --> 00:04:15,167
on Frances Avenue
statingthere was a lot of police.
72
00:04:18,736 --> 00:04:20,956
So I called my son, Blake,
just to see what was
73
00:04:21,086 --> 00:04:23,437
going on in the neighborhood.
74
00:04:23,567 --> 00:04:27,615
But I couldn't get
in touch with him.
75
00:04:27,745 --> 00:04:31,096
I was at school,
and I got a call from Blake's
76
00:04:31,227 --> 00:04:32,446
mom, Angie, freaking out.
77
00:04:32,576 --> 00:04:34,970
Like, there's cops
down the road.
78
00:04:35,100 --> 00:04:36,420
I have a feeling
it's about Blake.
79
00:04:36,493 --> 00:04:37,886
Blake's not answering his phone.
80
00:04:42,238 --> 00:04:44,327
I was flipping out.
81
00:04:44,458 --> 00:04:45,458
I know my son.
82
00:04:45,546 --> 00:04:47,069
And I know my son
will pick up my phone
83
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:48,462
call at every phone call.
84
00:04:48,592 --> 00:04:52,379
So I felt in my gut
something was wrong.
85
00:04:52,509 --> 00:04:53,989
I got to Blake's house.
86
00:04:54,119 --> 00:04:57,601
There was a whole bunch
copsand ambulances down the street.
87
00:04:57,732 --> 00:04:59,386
I talked to an officer, but I
88
00:04:59,516 --> 00:05:01,823
was denied any
information, or if it
89
00:05:01,953 --> 00:05:05,566
had anything to do with my son.
90
00:05:05,696 --> 00:05:09,309
Somebody said five of
teenagershad broke into a home,
91
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:13,574
and that my son was involved.
92
00:05:13,704 --> 00:05:15,880
The next thing I find
outis pretty much that two
93
00:05:16,011 --> 00:05:18,622
of the kids had been shot.
94
00:05:18,753 --> 00:05:22,409
One was alive, and one was dead.
95
00:05:22,539 --> 00:05:27,239
I didn't know if it
was my son that w...
96
00:05:27,370 --> 00:05:28,415
Was gone.
97
00:05:28,545 --> 00:05:29,545
Which passed.
98
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,551
Angie left to the hospital
99
00:05:34,682 --> 00:05:36,597
to see if Blake was there.
100
00:05:36,727 --> 00:05:39,382
And an officer
showed up and said
101
00:05:39,513 --> 00:05:41,099
that we had to talked
to Officer Price, which
102
00:05:41,123 --> 00:05:42,646
was the homicide detective.
103
00:05:42,777 --> 00:05:44,363
So at that point, we
were all, oh my gosh.
104
00:05:44,387 --> 00:05:48,260
Like,
something reallybad has happened to Blake.
105
00:05:48,391 --> 00:05:50,219
On the way to the hospital,
106
00:05:50,350 --> 00:05:52,003
the police station called me.
107
00:05:52,134 --> 00:05:53,657
They had Blake.
108
00:05:53,788 --> 00:05:56,660
He had been shot in
somebody else's home.
109
00:05:56,791 --> 00:05:59,315
And so I went to the
Elkhart Police station.
110
00:05:59,446 --> 00:06:00,795
I got questioned quite a bit.
111
00:06:00,925 --> 00:06:02,753
I just kept asking
to see my son.
112
00:06:02,884 --> 00:06:04,059
And at the time, he's 16.
113
00:06:04,189 --> 00:06:06,235
I should've been
able to see him.
114
00:06:06,366 --> 00:06:09,978
They wanted me to sign
thepaper to have him questioned.
115
00:06:10,108 --> 00:06:12,348
And they told me that theywere
charging him with murder.
116
00:06:15,897 --> 00:06:19,204
The first
personthat Blake called was me.
117
00:06:19,335 --> 00:06:22,382
He called me, and
he was bawling,
118
00:06:22,512 --> 00:06:23,818
talking about how he messed up.
119
00:06:23,948 --> 00:06:26,777
And he wishes that he
had never done anything.
120
00:06:26,908 --> 00:06:30,390
He was just sobbing.
121
00:06:57,982 --> 00:06:59,622
Prosecutors announce four
122
00:06:59,723 --> 00:07:01,595
men are facing murder charges.
123
00:07:01,725 --> 00:07:03,727
And Judy, why are
these men being charged
124
00:07:03,858 --> 00:07:05,575
with murder when they
didn't pull the trigger
125
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:06,687
that killed their friend?
126
00:07:06,817 --> 00:07:08,491
Well, Brian, the prosecutor
127
00:07:08,515 --> 00:07:09,733
made it very clear today.
128
00:07:09,864 --> 00:07:12,344
Under Indiana law,
when you'rein the midst of engaging
129
00:07:12,475 --> 00:07:14,956
in criminal behavior
and someone is killed,
130
00:07:15,086 --> 00:07:17,045
murder is an available charge.
131
00:07:17,175 --> 00:07:20,048
It sends a strong messageto
criminals here that crime
132
00:07:20,178 --> 00:07:21,178
will not be tolerated.
133
00:07:52,776 --> 00:07:54,691
We live day to day.
134
00:07:54,822 --> 00:07:56,780
We live day to day, you know?
135
00:07:56,911 --> 00:08:00,697
You... you fill your
time out the right way.
136
00:08:00,828 --> 00:08:04,179
You occupy your time
with the right things
137
00:08:04,309 --> 00:08:06,050
and avoid the wrong.
138
00:08:06,181 --> 00:08:07,661
You know, it's prison.
139
00:08:07,791 --> 00:08:10,098
You're surrounded by
negative all the time.
140
00:08:10,228 --> 00:08:12,404
Be a light in the
dark, you know?
141
00:08:12,535 --> 00:08:15,495
Be the one that's different.
142
00:08:15,625 --> 00:08:18,802
It's hard.
143
00:08:18,933 --> 00:08:20,388
It's been nine months
already, and I'm
144
00:08:20,412 --> 00:08:21,452
still waiting on my trial.
145
00:08:24,155 --> 00:08:27,071
I mean,
you don't get tophysically see your family,
146
00:08:27,202 --> 00:08:28,420
you know?
147
00:08:28,551 --> 00:08:30,510
You're talking to
the only people that
148
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,904
are there for you over a phone.
149
00:08:34,035 --> 00:08:36,820
Over a screen.
150
00:08:36,951 --> 00:08:38,430
And it's tough.
151
00:08:38,561 --> 00:08:42,043
You're in this big
place all by yourself,
152
00:08:42,173 --> 00:08:46,003
and you can't even give yourmom a hug,
or your girl,
153
00:08:46,134 --> 00:08:47,134
or... nothing.
154
00:08:55,143 --> 00:08:56,143
I wasn't a bad kid.
155
00:08:59,974 --> 00:09:00,974
I made mistakes.
156
00:09:01,018 --> 00:09:02,018
Every kid does.
157
00:09:05,370 --> 00:09:06,522
Tried to play sports
when I was younger.
158
00:09:06,546 --> 00:09:07,547
Didn't really like it.
159
00:09:07,677 --> 00:09:08,722
Didn't do it.
160
00:09:08,852 --> 00:09:11,289
Come on, Blakey.
161
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:15,163
Come on, Blakey-bloo.
162
00:09:16,643 --> 00:09:19,689
When I got older, started...
163
00:09:19,820 --> 00:09:23,824
Tried getting high,
stuff like that.
164
00:09:23,954 --> 00:09:25,869
Just kind of startedhanging out with,
you know,
165
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,107
guys that were
doing I was doing.
166
00:09:27,131 --> 00:09:29,177
So that's all we did, you know?
167
00:09:29,307 --> 00:09:30,307
Kicked it and got high.
168
00:09:36,140 --> 00:09:43,539
That day, I was with Anthony,
Jose, Levi, and Danzele.
169
00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:45,106
I had known most
for a long time.
170
00:09:45,236 --> 00:09:47,108
All good friends.
171
00:09:47,238 --> 00:09:48,838
I don't know why we
decided we were going
172
00:09:48,892 --> 00:09:50,415
to break into somebody's house.
173
00:09:50,546 --> 00:09:51,286
I think it was money.
174
00:09:51,416 --> 00:09:52,416
Probably to get higher.
175
00:09:52,461 --> 00:09:54,202
I don't know.
176
00:09:54,332 --> 00:09:56,492
We knocked on people's houses,
see if anybody was home.
177
00:09:56,552 --> 00:09:57,660
One house had dogs or something.
178
00:09:57,684 --> 00:09:59,163
I don't remember.
179
00:09:59,294 --> 00:10:03,515
And then pretty sure it
wasJose that said something
180
00:10:03,646 --> 00:10:06,606
about the house across thestreet,
not being there a lot,
181
00:10:06,736 --> 00:10:08,738
and at work.
182
00:10:08,869 --> 00:10:11,654
So we knocked on that door.
183
00:10:11,785 --> 00:10:13,395
Nobody picked up.
184
00:10:13,525 --> 00:10:16,790
And, you know, in our heads,
that meant no one was there.
185
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,401
At that point, Levi
decided to stay back
186
00:10:19,531 --> 00:10:20,771
and kind of became the lookout.
187
00:10:24,362 --> 00:10:26,340
And kind of want to
sayDanzele kicked the door in.
188
00:10:26,364 --> 00:10:27,627
We went inside.
189
00:10:27,757 --> 00:10:29,454
And we weren't in there
probably a minute.
190
00:10:29,585 --> 00:10:31,805
Not very long at all.
191
00:10:31,935 --> 00:10:33,676
There was a wallet and a watch.
192
00:10:33,807 --> 00:10:35,286
I just grabbed it.
193
00:10:35,417 --> 00:10:38,246
And that's when thehomeowner
had come downstairs
194
00:10:38,376 --> 00:10:41,118
and began shooting.
195
00:10:41,249 --> 00:10:42,990
We're all in a bedroom.
196
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,951
And we turned around and
run back in a closet.
197
00:10:48,082 --> 00:10:51,041
I didn't know I'd got
shotuntil I grabbed my leg
198
00:10:51,172 --> 00:10:51,912
and it started hurting.
199
00:10:52,042 --> 00:10:54,523
And I realized, oh, yeah.
200
00:10:54,654 --> 00:10:55,654
I was shot.
201
00:11:01,095 --> 00:11:04,968
And then I noticed
thatDanzele was kind of falling.
202
00:11:05,099 --> 00:11:07,188
And I kind of looked over,
and I seen on his chest
203
00:11:07,318 --> 00:11:12,280
that his sweater was all red.
204
00:11:12,410 --> 00:11:14,730
And then it kind of clicked inmy hand,
like, oh, you know,
205
00:11:14,848 --> 00:11:17,285
he got shot.
206
00:11:17,415 --> 00:11:19,243
I tried to pull
him in the closet,
207
00:11:19,374 --> 00:11:21,593
and I felt the blood on my hand.
208
00:11:24,684 --> 00:11:26,076
And that's when he had died.
209
00:11:42,571 --> 00:11:46,618
The law is
quite clear that if one
210
00:11:46,749 --> 00:11:48,316
engages in a felony...
211
00:11:48,446 --> 00:11:50,753
And particular
felony, burglary...
212
00:11:50,884 --> 00:11:54,191
And, during the commissionof that burglary,
someone
213
00:11:54,322 --> 00:11:58,805
dies as a result,
that wecan charge felony murder.
214
00:11:58,935 --> 00:12:00,894
To the future criminals,
that message is, gee,
215
00:12:01,024 --> 00:12:03,418
if you go breaking
into somebody's house
216
00:12:03,548 --> 00:12:06,551
and somebody dies as a result,
Elkhart County is going
217
00:12:06,682 --> 00:12:08,553
to hold you up for murder.
218
00:12:08,684 --> 00:12:10,604
And I think that's
animportant standard to have.
219
00:12:18,955 --> 00:12:19,651
They're going to be raised
220
00:12:19,782 --> 00:12:21,653
with criminals for years.
221
00:12:21,784 --> 00:12:23,370
If they're gonna put
themwith that kind of time,
222
00:12:23,394 --> 00:12:25,309
they're going to go to
the worst of the worst.
223
00:12:26,876 --> 00:12:29,357
Because they're max security,
because they're murderers.
224
00:12:29,487 --> 00:12:33,013
That just makes me so
sick to my stomach.
225
00:12:33,143 --> 00:12:34,666
That's too much.
226
00:12:34,797 --> 00:12:36,016
I get myself...
227
00:12:36,146 --> 00:12:38,105
That's why
we'vegot to keep things going.
228
00:12:38,235 --> 00:12:39,628
It helps.
229
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:44,894
But we need to do arecent
summary of the case
230
00:12:45,025 --> 00:12:46,809
and what has
happened to put on...
231
00:12:46,940 --> 00:12:48,332
Update the flyers,
I was thinking.
232
00:12:48,463 --> 00:12:49,614
That's what I was thinking, too.
233
00:12:49,638 --> 00:12:50,702
I was like, I need to
go through there and...
234
00:12:50,726 --> 00:12:51,921
We don't want to
draw it all out either,
235
00:12:51,945 --> 00:12:53,642
because they did commit
a crime, and they
236
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:54,773
deserve to be punished.
237
00:12:54,861 --> 00:12:56,297
Oh, definitely.
238
00:12:56,427 --> 00:12:57,883
It's not like we're
justtrying to get out of it.
239
00:12:57,907 --> 00:12:59,996
We know Blake didwrong, and we know that he
240
00:13:00,127 --> 00:13:02,825
broke into that man's house.
241
00:13:02,956 --> 00:13:04,784
But charge him with what he did.
242
00:13:04,914 --> 00:13:07,395
Charge him for the breakingand entering,
even burglary.
243
00:13:07,525 --> 00:13:10,093
It's a six-to 20-year
sentence for these kids.
244
00:13:10,224 --> 00:13:12,008
Felony murder is stretching.
245
00:13:12,139 --> 00:13:16,273
It's cruel punishment
to these teenagers.
246
00:13:16,404 --> 00:13:20,147
The felony murder rule,
it'sjust... it's very outdated.
247
00:13:20,277 --> 00:13:22,410
You don't have to prove
an intent to kill any...
248
00:13:22,540 --> 00:13:24,629
I mean, you don't evenactually
have to do the murder
249
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:25,805
to be charged with it.
250
00:13:25,935 --> 00:13:28,590
I just think that's ridiculous.
251
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,594
All they have to do is provethat
you were in the commission
252
00:13:32,724 --> 00:13:35,075
of the alleged crime.
253
00:13:35,205 --> 00:13:37,053
That blew me away,
and I've beendealing with the legal system
254
00:13:37,077 --> 00:13:38,078
for years.
255
00:13:38,208 --> 00:13:39,608
They caught me
completely off guard.
256
00:13:53,267 --> 00:13:54,635
The day before
our trial was beginning,
257
00:13:54,659 --> 00:13:57,314
I had myself prepared
for the worst.
258
00:13:57,445 --> 00:14:00,361
Prepared for a guiltyverdict
of felony murder.
259
00:14:00,491 --> 00:14:06,106
But as I went through thetrial,
and the week, and I...
260
00:14:06,236 --> 00:14:08,369
I thought, if anything,
them 12 jurors...
261
00:14:08,499 --> 00:14:10,762
Somebody was going to
decidenot to send these boys away
262
00:14:10,893 --> 00:14:12,013
for the rest of their lives.
263
00:14:15,158 --> 00:14:17,247
It seemed like we
had a nice juror.
264
00:14:17,378 --> 00:14:18,988
It would've been
fair and decent.
265
00:14:19,119 --> 00:14:22,078
There was like eight
females, four males.
266
00:14:22,209 --> 00:14:23,775
Some of them a couple
schoolteachers.
267
00:14:23,906 --> 00:14:26,430
I just... I just had big
hope that these people
268
00:14:26,561 --> 00:14:28,842
would not charge these
boyswith something they didn't do.
269
00:14:31,740 --> 00:14:33,698
I got Blake's hopes up because
270
00:14:33,829 --> 00:14:36,049
of how good trial was looking.
271
00:14:36,179 --> 00:14:37,417
We were talking on
the phone those days
272
00:14:37,441 --> 00:14:39,182
like, man, we got this case.
273
00:14:39,313 --> 00:14:40,053
Like, we're going to win.
274
00:14:40,183 --> 00:14:41,223
You're going to come home.
275
00:14:41,315 --> 00:14:44,144
You're going to get
charged with burglary.
276
00:14:44,274 --> 00:14:45,841
As we sit here today,
we have the death
277
00:14:45,972 --> 00:14:49,453
of Danzele Johnson,
whichis absolutely unvindicated.
278
00:14:49,584 --> 00:14:53,414
Not one of them truly
didaccept responsibility.
279
00:14:53,544 --> 00:14:56,330
You know,
our laws do notcome close to addressing
280
00:14:56,460 --> 00:14:59,768
what a violent attack...
Aburglary... is on your home.
281
00:14:59,899 --> 00:15:01,398
I mean, where do our
children feel safe?
282
00:15:01,422 --> 00:15:02,727
They feel safe in their beds.
283
00:15:02,858 --> 00:15:05,252
And they don't think that
peopleare going to violate that,
284
00:15:05,382 --> 00:15:07,022
and yet that's exactly
what happened here.
285
00:15:11,301 --> 00:15:12,931
Everybody
isentitled to their opinion.
286
00:15:12,955 --> 00:15:15,088
That's what this
Americansystem is all about.
287
00:15:15,218 --> 00:15:17,090
I'm not here to
address concerns.
288
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:20,789
Certainly anyone who's
involved in the case
289
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,270
from a family standpoint,
this is a tough day.
290
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,012
But whatever the jury
decides, we live with.
291
00:15:31,408 --> 00:15:33,454
At about 10 till midnight,
292
00:15:33,584 --> 00:15:35,935
they came back with a verdict.
293
00:15:36,065 --> 00:15:39,112
And as soon as I sat downand
they brought the jurors in,
294
00:15:39,242 --> 00:15:40,461
I felt it in my stomach.
295
00:15:43,768 --> 00:15:48,686
I just remember, basically,
when they read the verdict,
296
00:15:48,817 --> 00:15:51,646
them saying Anthony's name.
297
00:15:51,776 --> 00:15:52,908
Hearing all three guilties.
298
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:55,955
And Blake stood up.
299
00:15:56,085 --> 00:15:59,393
He looked back,
and hisface was just full of tears.
300
00:15:59,523 --> 00:16:02,309
Like, his face was all droopy.
301
00:16:02,439 --> 00:16:04,746
And I don't remember
seeing anything else.
302
00:16:50,879 --> 00:16:52,228
I wish that there
would have been
303
00:16:52,359 --> 00:16:55,144
a different outcome becausethey
did not commit a murder.
304
00:16:55,275 --> 00:16:58,017
They did not pull that trigger.
305
00:16:58,147 --> 00:16:59,385
That's a tough message.
306
00:16:59,409 --> 00:17:00,865
But it's the right
message, because we
307
00:17:00,889 --> 00:17:02,169
have to take a
position that when
308
00:17:02,238 --> 00:17:04,023
you break into
someone's home, you
309
00:17:04,153 --> 00:17:05,589
have to be held accountable.
310
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,812
It's certainly a verdictthat
I think is appropriate.
311
00:17:10,942 --> 00:17:13,510
Now an
updateon a deadly Elkhart county home
312
00:17:13,641 --> 00:17:14,661
invasion that took place last...
313
00:17:14,685 --> 00:17:15,885
...weekend.
314
00:17:15,947 --> 00:17:17,099
And Kelly,
those boyswill likely end up serving
315
00:17:17,123 --> 00:17:18,689
half their sentences, if that.
316
00:17:18,820 --> 00:17:21,233
...because
ofday-for-day credit in Indiana.
317
00:17:21,257 --> 00:17:23,738
The judge also recommended
drug counseling
318
00:17:23,868 --> 00:17:26,828
for the three of them since
theywere high on marijuana the day
319
00:17:26,958 --> 00:17:28,221
the home invasion happened.
320
00:17:28,351 --> 00:17:29,431
But their fight isn't over.
321
00:17:29,526 --> 00:17:30,179
Now, this whole case has been
322
00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:31,461
going on for about 10 months.
323
00:17:31,485 --> 00:17:32,897
Is there any word the
families will appeal?
324
00:17:32,921 --> 00:17:34,072
They
planto fight this until the end.
325
00:17:34,096 --> 00:17:35,228
So that could mean appeals.
326
00:17:35,358 --> 00:17:36,229
All right.
327
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,554
Tricia Harte, live
from the newsroom.
328
00:17:37,578 --> 00:17:38,578
Thank you.
329
00:17:45,542 --> 00:17:46,822
We'll never get
this puzzle done.
330
00:17:50,417 --> 00:17:53,376
Curtis Hill can't catch
areal murderer in Elkhart.
331
00:17:53,507 --> 00:17:55,987
So he's got to go and
make stats for himself.
332
00:18:01,254 --> 00:18:02,864
I've always loved
the United States.
333
00:18:02,994 --> 00:18:05,736
I've always had pride
in the United States.
334
00:18:05,867 --> 00:18:07,260
But this is not just.
335
00:18:07,390 --> 00:18:10,654
That makes you wonder,
is this the right place
336
00:18:10,785 --> 00:18:11,785
to raise my family?
337
00:18:14,571 --> 00:18:17,400
You break into a home
that you think is empty.
338
00:18:17,531 --> 00:18:19,315
You don't have any weapons.
339
00:18:19,446 --> 00:18:22,971
You retreat the entire
timewhen somebody comes in.
340
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:26,888
How can the United
States put some...
341
00:18:27,018 --> 00:18:28,542
A child, no less...
342
00:18:28,672 --> 00:18:30,152
Not an adult, but a child...
343
00:18:30,283 --> 00:18:32,589
In prison for that
amount of time?
344
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,593
To completely destroy theirlife,
their family life?
345
00:18:36,724 --> 00:18:39,466
And I understand that
thischild should be punished.
346
00:18:39,596 --> 00:18:42,251
There's no doubt in my mind
thatthat child should be punished.
347
00:18:42,382 --> 00:18:43,252
But...
348
00:18:43,383 --> 00:18:44,664
People that actually
kill someone...
349
00:18:44,688 --> 00:18:45,341
Yes.
350
00:18:45,472 --> 00:18:46,536
...are getting less time than...
351
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,080
Are getting less
time than... than this
352
00:18:48,170 --> 00:18:50,955
child that made a bad choice.
353
00:18:51,086 --> 00:18:52,522
And he needs to learn from that.
354
00:18:52,653 --> 00:18:53,393
But...
355
00:18:53,523 --> 00:18:54,524
It wasn't murder.
356
00:18:54,655 --> 00:18:57,788
It was not murder.
357
00:18:57,919 --> 00:19:00,443
I mean, I can't even get
on the internet sites
358
00:19:00,574 --> 00:19:02,576
where there's a storyabout
this because people
359
00:19:02,706 --> 00:19:05,013
make me sick with the
waythey're "lock these thugs up.
360
00:19:05,144 --> 00:19:06,338
They deserve
everything they get."
361
00:19:06,362 --> 00:19:08,103
You don't know these kids.
362
00:19:08,234 --> 00:19:10,801
They're not gang members
thathave been running the street.
363
00:19:10,932 --> 00:19:11,972
This is his first offense.
364
00:19:27,383 --> 00:19:30,081
This case has
alreadycost us a lot of money.
365
00:19:30,212 --> 00:19:33,041
Paid our first lawyer 15,000.
366
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:37,132
And now we're starting
all over for the appeal.
367
00:19:37,263 --> 00:19:39,395
We have to find a new lawyer,
which is probably going
368
00:19:39,526 --> 00:19:41,745
to cost more than that one did.
369
00:19:41,876 --> 00:19:45,053
So we're having prayer
rally-slash-cookout.
370
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:46,228
We're supplying the meat.
371
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:47,751
Everybody's inside.
372
00:19:47,882 --> 00:19:49,666
We'll have a jar out there.
373
00:19:49,797 --> 00:19:52,887
We're gonna try to raisemore
money for the appeal.
374
00:19:53,017 --> 00:19:55,455
It's going to be a
long, expensive process.
375
00:19:55,585 --> 00:19:56,867
I want to thankeach
and every one of you
376
00:19:56,891 --> 00:19:58,240
for your support.
377
00:19:58,371 --> 00:20:01,200
We appreciate
everything you've done.
378
00:20:01,330 --> 00:20:02,730
Appreciate you
coming out here today
379
00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:05,769
to enjoy this beautiful
Labor Day with us.
380
00:20:05,900 --> 00:20:09,947
And we would like to
give something back now
381
00:20:10,078 --> 00:20:12,515
and give some thanks
to the Good Lord.
382
00:20:12,646 --> 00:20:15,997
I ask, Father,
that Youlook over these young men
383
00:20:16,127 --> 00:20:19,218
and give them the strengthand
courage they need to lead
384
00:20:19,348 --> 00:20:21,176
others in hopes that
they can be a light
385
00:20:21,307 --> 00:20:23,091
in a dark place,
Father, and that they
386
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:24,658
can lead others to You.
387
00:20:24,788 --> 00:20:26,747
In Jesus precious name we pray.
388
00:20:26,877 --> 00:20:27,878
Amen.
389
00:20:29,402 --> 00:20:31,002
You guys ready for
some kickball or what?
390
00:20:31,926 --> 00:20:34,233
Hello?
391
00:20:34,363 --> 00:20:35,582
What's up, son?
392
00:20:35,712 --> 00:20:38,541
We got a lot of people
outhere that showed up, man.
393
00:20:38,672 --> 00:20:40,040
A lot of people showed
up here to support
394
00:20:40,064 --> 00:20:41,240
you now and the cause.
395
00:20:44,895 --> 00:20:47,768
It's going to seem worse,
but it'll get better.
396
00:20:47,898 --> 00:20:48,898
You know?
397
00:20:51,989 --> 00:20:55,732
I'm... I'm gonnaput
you on with Katherine, OK?
398
00:20:55,863 --> 00:20:56,994
She's... she's mugging me.
399
00:20:57,125 --> 00:20:57,952
No, I am not.
400
00:20:58,082 --> 00:21:00,824
She hasn't took
her eyeballs off me.
401
00:21:00,955 --> 00:21:01,825
All right, son.
402
00:21:01,956 --> 00:21:02,956
I love you, Blake.
403
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Keep your head up.
404
00:21:06,569 --> 00:21:07,569
Hello?
405
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,057
I missed a big
part of Blake's life
406
00:21:16,187 --> 00:21:19,843
that I've spent in prison.
407
00:21:19,974 --> 00:21:22,106
They call it theDepartment of Corrections,
408
00:21:22,237 --> 00:21:24,544
but there's not much...
409
00:21:24,674 --> 00:21:28,112
It's not really set
up to correct anybody.
410
00:21:28,243 --> 00:21:30,003
Most of the people I
knowthat have spent time...
411
00:21:30,027 --> 00:21:34,205
Long, long prison terms...
412
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:36,120
Don't come out much
better than what
413
00:21:36,251 --> 00:21:37,371
they were when they went in.
414
00:21:40,037 --> 00:21:41,557
There's no preparing
yourself for that.
415
00:21:41,648 --> 00:21:43,606
But I try to talk
to him and prepare
416
00:21:43,737 --> 00:21:49,133
him to be ready to deal
withwhat he's going to experience.
417
00:21:54,095 --> 00:21:56,010
He's a strong kid.
418
00:21:56,140 --> 00:21:57,664
And I know he has
the right intentions,
419
00:21:57,794 --> 00:22:00,275
and I know he'll
do the right thing.
420
00:22:00,406 --> 00:22:01,929
But I'm scared for him.
421
00:22:02,059 --> 00:22:07,108
I... I just can't...
422
00:22:07,238 --> 00:22:08,414
I can't even find the words.
423
00:22:08,544 --> 00:22:09,544
I don't...
424
00:22:21,470 --> 00:22:25,082
I don't want him to
experiencethe things I experienced
425
00:22:25,213 --> 00:22:27,737
and make the choices I made.
426
00:22:27,868 --> 00:22:29,609
I wish I could, you
know, push a button
427
00:22:29,739 --> 00:22:31,785
and make all this go away.
428
00:22:31,915 --> 00:22:36,006
Or go with him and
protecthim every step of it.
429
00:22:43,405 --> 00:22:45,625
I'm home, and our
family's reunited,
430
00:22:45,755 --> 00:22:46,539
and we're all together.
431
00:22:46,669 --> 00:22:48,192
It's what we've
all always wanted,
432
00:22:48,323 --> 00:22:50,064
and he's been taken away.
433
00:23:13,479 --> 00:23:15,481
A long time ago, all I remember
434
00:23:15,611 --> 00:23:20,094
is watching "Cops"
on TV and, like,
435
00:23:20,224 --> 00:23:23,967
seeing them help their
communityand all other things that
436
00:23:24,098 --> 00:23:25,708
come along with being a cop.
437
00:23:25,839 --> 00:23:27,164
I wanted to be a part
of that, you know?
438
00:23:27,188 --> 00:23:31,235
I wanted to be helping peopleand
putting the bad ones away
439
00:23:31,366 --> 00:23:33,586
and, you know, all that.
440
00:23:33,716 --> 00:23:34,780
I was actually getting
law enforcement
441
00:23:34,804 --> 00:23:36,415
credits at the career center.
442
00:23:36,545 --> 00:23:39,156
And then, in the middle ofall that,
Blake got arrested.
443
00:23:42,333 --> 00:23:44,693
At first, I didn't really
talkabout it with a lot of people
444
00:23:44,771 --> 00:23:47,295
because most of
it was, you know,
445
00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:48,949
you're stupid for
staying with him.
446
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:52,822
And so I didn't really talkabout
it law enforcement class.
447
00:23:52,953 --> 00:23:56,739
But when I did, it just
made me want to cry.
448
00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:57,870
Like, it was bad.
449
00:24:11,275 --> 00:24:13,713
They were just thugs,
and theydeserve to be where they are.
450
00:24:13,843 --> 00:24:16,672
And if they get life,
well then, so be it.
451
00:24:16,803 --> 00:24:19,501
That was just a lot
for me, especially
452
00:24:19,632 --> 00:24:21,436
since I've been datingthis kid for,
like, a year.
453
00:24:21,460 --> 00:24:23,810
And everybody
knows, and they just
454
00:24:23,940 --> 00:24:25,942
still decide to talk about it.
455
00:24:26,073 --> 00:24:28,467
It was hard.
456
00:24:28,597 --> 00:24:29,990
I just don't feel
like I could ever
457
00:24:30,120 --> 00:24:33,559
be a part of law enforcement.
458
00:24:33,689 --> 00:24:36,953
I know I should have
pursuedit and made a change.
459
00:24:37,084 --> 00:24:39,521
But there was just
something about it
460
00:24:39,652 --> 00:24:47,652
that I just cut everybody off
461
00:24:50,967 --> 00:24:52,752
Destiny, what are you studying?
462
00:24:52,882 --> 00:24:53,579
Triangles.
463
00:24:53,709 --> 00:24:54,860
Oh, I seen that you were looking
464
00:24:54,884 --> 00:24:56,320
triangles up on the iPad.
465
00:24:56,451 --> 00:24:57,931
Oh, yeah.
466
00:24:58,061 --> 00:25:00,455
You must've been havingtrouble
with your homework.
467
00:25:00,586 --> 00:25:01,586
This is confusing.
468
00:25:04,764 --> 00:25:05,764
90 plus 26.
469
00:25:09,029 --> 00:25:10,683
That's two angles.
470
00:25:10,813 --> 00:25:14,121
This whole situation wasreally,
really hard for Destiny.
471
00:25:14,251 --> 00:25:17,211
When she was born,
she was diagnosed with
472
00:25:17,341 --> 00:25:20,344
an astrocytomas brain tumor.
473
00:25:20,475 --> 00:25:22,172
They say that it
was not operable.
474
00:25:22,303 --> 00:25:23,043
It spread out.
475
00:25:23,173 --> 00:25:25,001
It's not like a one-spot tumor.
476
00:25:25,132 --> 00:25:29,745
It's different spots
all over the brain.
477
00:25:29,876 --> 00:25:31,549
The doctors were sayingshe
was going to be blind.
478
00:25:31,573 --> 00:25:33,072
You know,
they thoughtshe probably wouldn't even
479
00:25:33,096 --> 00:25:34,968
make it till five.
480
00:25:35,098 --> 00:25:37,057
She started chemo right away.
481
00:25:37,187 --> 00:25:39,078
She's been through a few
roundsof chemo through the years.
482
00:25:39,102 --> 00:25:40,147
What time is it?
483
00:25:41,148 --> 00:25:44,107
I don't know, but we can go.
484
00:25:44,238 --> 00:25:46,414
Yeah, 8:24.
485
00:25:46,545 --> 00:25:49,809
But she pretty much quit
whenthis all happened with Blake.
486
00:25:49,939 --> 00:25:51,027
That was her rock.
487
00:25:51,158 --> 00:25:51,941
Blake did a lot.
488
00:25:52,072 --> 00:25:53,334
He went to chemo.
489
00:25:53,464 --> 00:25:56,555
Did the medicine with
herin the middle of night.
490
00:25:56,685 --> 00:25:57,860
Very involved with Destiny.
491
00:25:57,991 --> 00:25:59,906
So when this situation
happened, she
492
00:26:00,036 --> 00:26:01,429
refused to take chemo pills.
493
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,563
She just stopped.
494
00:26:04,693 --> 00:26:07,087
So we had to have a
meeting at the hospital
495
00:26:07,217 --> 00:26:09,611
with the nurse, the doctor.
496
00:26:09,742 --> 00:26:12,266
We all discussed what
to do in the situation,
497
00:26:12,396 --> 00:26:16,270
and we chose to let
her take a break.
498
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,620
So she has been
totally off everything.
499
00:26:18,751 --> 00:26:22,406
But she still has
the brain tumor.
500
00:26:22,537 --> 00:26:24,234
Every three months,
we go to the hospital.
501
00:26:24,365 --> 00:26:29,109
Get an MRI check on it,
makesure it's not growing any.
502
00:26:29,239 --> 00:26:31,130
Unfortunately,
we kind ofgot a little rough news
503
00:26:31,154 --> 00:26:34,114
that there was a little
bitof color difference, which
504
00:26:34,244 --> 00:26:36,203
means that it could be active.
505
00:26:36,333 --> 00:26:37,683
But we're going
to just watch it,
506
00:26:37,813 --> 00:26:39,333
and hopefully we'll
just stay on break,
507
00:26:39,423 --> 00:26:40,076
and we won't have to
508
00:26:40,207 --> 00:26:41,251
Oh, I'm late.
509
00:26:41,382 --> 00:26:42,402
I'm getting out of the car.
510
00:26:42,426 --> 00:26:43,166
All right.
511
00:26:43,297 --> 00:26:44,298
I love you.
512
00:26:44,428 --> 00:26:45,580
I'll probably
never see you again.
513
00:26:45,604 --> 00:26:47,214
Destiny!
514
00:26:47,344 --> 00:26:50,173
All right, I'll be here atwhat time,
um, to pick you up?
515
00:26:50,304 --> 00:26:52,219
Oh my gosh.
516
00:26:52,349 --> 00:26:53,960
I love you!
517
00:26:54,090 --> 00:26:54,830
No, you don't.
518
00:26:54,961 --> 00:26:57,311
Bye, Destiny!
519
00:27:15,329 --> 00:27:17,157
Son?
520
00:27:17,287 --> 00:27:18,724
Come on, baby.
521
00:27:18,854 --> 00:27:20,136
Do you want to tryand or no?
522
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:20,856
- No,
I'm good. - Do you want to light his?
523
00:27:20,987 --> 00:27:22,336
No, I'm good!
524
00:27:22,466 --> 00:27:24,747
It may go out of the way,
butwe'll relight it if it does.
525
00:27:56,849 --> 00:27:59,678
We just want to
rememberthe day there was a life lost
526
00:27:59,808 --> 00:28:02,724
here, and a young man too soon.
527
00:28:02,855 --> 00:28:04,552
Way too soon.
528
00:28:04,683 --> 00:28:07,686
Danzele's mom will neverbe
able to hug him again.
529
00:28:07,816 --> 00:28:08,556
Amen.
530
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:09,470
Amen.
531
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,167
Amen.
532
00:28:11,298 --> 00:28:13,517
If we could all justbow
our heads for a minute.
533
00:28:13,648 --> 00:28:16,607
Dear Heavenly Father,
wecome to you on this holy day
534
00:28:16,738 --> 00:28:20,089
just to ask for
Danzele's family.
535
00:28:20,220 --> 00:28:22,067
Let their grief be short,
and just let them know
536
00:28:22,091 --> 00:28:23,658
that he's in a better place.
537
00:28:23,789 --> 00:28:25,469
We come here not only
for the Elkhart four,
538
00:28:25,573 --> 00:28:29,185
but know that there's anotherangel
up there in Your heaven.
539
00:28:29,316 --> 00:28:31,840
And just help us push everyday
to fight for what we know
540
00:28:31,971 --> 00:28:33,276
is right.
541
00:28:33,407 --> 00:28:34,495
And we thank you.
542
00:28:34,625 --> 00:28:36,255
Son Jesus Christ precious,
holy name, we pray.
543
00:28:36,279 --> 00:28:37,019
Amen.
544
00:28:37,150 --> 00:28:38,150
Amen.
545
00:28:59,999 --> 00:29:02,653
Danzele's mother
had come to visit me.
546
00:29:02,784 --> 00:29:05,918
I didn't know how the familyfelt
about what had happened.
547
00:29:06,048 --> 00:29:07,156
You know, I didn't
know if she was going
548
00:29:07,180 --> 00:29:09,530
to come up here and yell at me.
549
00:29:09,660 --> 00:29:11,750
But she told me,
thank youfor staying with Danzele
550
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,101
while everything was happening.
551
00:29:15,231 --> 00:29:16,755
You know, he's 21 years old.
552
00:29:16,885 --> 00:29:18,800
That's... That's young.
553
00:29:18,931 --> 00:29:20,628
He had so much life.
554
00:29:20,759 --> 00:29:22,238
And now... you know what I mean?
555
00:29:22,369 --> 00:29:27,809
And I told his mom,
when Iget out, I will not mess up.
556
00:29:27,940 --> 00:29:29,158
I will do right.
557
00:29:29,289 --> 00:29:32,466
Because I feel like
I'mdoing it not only for myself,
558
00:29:32,596 --> 00:29:34,163
but for Danzele as well.
559
00:29:34,294 --> 00:29:39,429
Because he's not going toget the chance,
you know?
560
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:40,953
I mean, I feel bad every day.
561
00:29:41,083 --> 00:29:42,345
I feel bad for the homeowner.
562
00:29:42,476 --> 00:29:45,522
And I feel like a
lot of people don't...
563
00:29:45,653 --> 00:29:46,653
Really don't look at him.
564
00:29:49,613 --> 00:29:51,224
He had all the right
to do what he did.
565
00:29:51,354 --> 00:29:53,313
We were in the wrong 100%.
566
00:29:53,443 --> 00:29:56,664
And I don't want him
tothink anything different.
567
00:29:56,795 --> 00:29:58,622
He did what he had to do.
568
00:29:58,753 --> 00:30:00,755
That was our mistake.
569
00:30:00,886 --> 00:30:03,246
I'm sorry he has to live
withthat for the rest of his life.
570
00:30:08,632 --> 00:30:09,459
Destiny!
571
00:30:09,590 --> 00:30:10,590
Destiny!
572
00:30:17,990 --> 00:30:18,817
You excited to see your brother?
573
00:30:18,947 --> 00:30:19,687
Mm-hmm.
574
00:30:19,818 --> 00:30:21,297
Yeah?
575
00:30:21,428 --> 00:30:23,038
- I get really anxious.
- Yeah.
576
00:30:23,169 --> 00:30:24,189
My stomach starts to hurt,
577
00:30:24,213 --> 00:30:25,475
like, right before we go in.
578
00:30:25,606 --> 00:30:29,392
If I look good, or
if I look weird, or...
579
00:30:29,523 --> 00:30:30,643
Everything's gotta be right.
580
00:30:32,613 --> 00:30:33,808
Oh, this is one of the boys now.
581
00:30:33,832 --> 00:30:34,832
It's Anthony.
582
00:30:37,705 --> 00:30:42,188
Yourcurrent balance is $10.17.
583
00:30:42,318 --> 00:30:43,798
Hi, Ant!
584
00:30:43,929 --> 00:30:45,278
Hey, Anthony.
585
00:30:45,408 --> 00:30:46,408
Hi, Ant.
586
00:30:46,453 --> 00:30:47,802
That was Katherine and Destiny.
587
00:30:47,933 --> 00:30:48,934
You're on speakerphone.
588
00:30:53,503 --> 00:30:54,330
So how's it going?
589
00:30:54,461 --> 00:30:55,461
You OK?
590
00:31:00,597 --> 00:31:02,251
Watch your mouth!
591
00:31:02,382 --> 00:31:08,649
All you guys
have... your mouth has gotten bad.
592
00:31:08,779 --> 00:31:10,651
Yeah, Katherine's being
a butthole because she
593
00:31:10,781 --> 00:31:11,782
thinks that we're lost.
594
00:31:11,913 --> 00:31:12,977
What do you mean, a "butthole"?
595
00:31:13,001 --> 00:31:14,524
She's just driving straight.
596
00:31:14,655 --> 00:31:16,024
We can be in freaking
California by now,
597
00:31:16,048 --> 00:31:18,050
for all she knows, but no.
598
00:31:18,180 --> 00:31:21,096
I'm kind of glad that I hadBlake
first because now, having
599
00:31:21,227 --> 00:31:23,925
a girl, because I have Katherinenow
instead of Blake right now.
600
00:31:24,056 --> 00:31:24,926
Whew!
601
00:31:25,057 --> 00:31:26,275
So, what is wrong with you?
602
00:31:26,406 --> 00:31:27,446
You're having chest pains?
603
00:31:32,281 --> 00:31:33,761
Well, you need to
worry about it,
604
00:31:33,892 --> 00:31:35,632
because that could be serious.
605
00:31:35,763 --> 00:31:37,678
You probably should tell
the nurse or something.
606
00:31:41,334 --> 00:31:42,422
No, you need to do that.
607
00:31:42,552 --> 00:31:44,206
I'll... I'll pay for it.
608
00:31:44,337 --> 00:31:45,425
ANTHONY Aw, man.
609
00:31:45,555 --> 00:31:46,730
I'm gonna pay for it!
610
00:31:46,861 --> 00:31:47,557
You need to get it checked out.
611
00:31:47,688 --> 00:31:48,688
It could be serious.
612
00:31:52,258 --> 00:31:53,476
Much love, Anthony.
613
00:31:53,607 --> 00:31:56,479
Bye!
614
00:31:56,610 --> 00:31:57,741
You keep your head up you.
615
00:31:57,872 --> 00:31:59,743
And you study for that test.
616
00:31:59,874 --> 00:32:02,094
All right, love you.
617
00:32:02,224 --> 00:32:04,183
Yeah, you too.
618
00:32:05,184 --> 00:32:06,402
This is mine and Blake's song.
619
00:32:06,533 --> 00:32:08,013
Oh, gosh.
620
00:32:08,143 --> 00:32:12,017
On the way?
621
00:32:57,845 --> 00:33:00,041
Blake told me
thatyou never put me through him
622
00:33:00,065 --> 00:33:03,764
going to jail for 55 years.
623
00:33:03,894 --> 00:33:08,029
But I have never resignedabout breaking up
624
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,510
because you've gotta
staystrong for each other.
625
00:33:14,601 --> 00:33:15,601
Destiny.
626
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:20,259
Destiny, honey!
627
00:33:20,389 --> 00:33:21,627
We're here. We've gotta see your brother.
628
00:33:21,651 --> 00:33:22,651
Come on.
629
00:33:30,791 --> 00:33:31,792
Sweating? You hot?
630
00:33:31,922 --> 00:33:32,922
You nervous?
631
00:33:35,491 --> 00:33:36,536
You're OK.
632
00:33:38,407 --> 00:33:41,019
You don't get to see himevery day,
so I gotta look good.
633
00:33:41,149 --> 00:33:42,020
It's like a date.
634
00:33:42,150 --> 00:33:42,890
Yeah.
635
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:44,196
Every 14 days, huh?
636
00:33:44,326 --> 00:33:45,326
With his mom.
637
00:33:54,684 --> 00:33:55,859
Come on!
638
00:33:55,990 --> 00:33:56,990
I can't feel my feet!
639
00:34:08,568 --> 00:34:10,372
The ElkhartFour is now obviously
640
00:34:10,396 --> 00:34:11,571
a big story in our area.
641
00:34:11,701 --> 00:34:12,833
Very high profile.
642
00:34:12,963 --> 00:34:14,376
It'sbeen a controversial case
643
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,097
from the beginning.
644
00:34:16,228 --> 00:34:18,032
I get aggravatedwhen
people call them thugs,
645
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:19,709
because they're not thugs.
646
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:23,104
They made a bad choice at 16.
647
00:34:23,235 --> 00:34:26,325
I think they did the
crime, they do the time.
648
00:34:26,455 --> 00:34:28,631
To be in jail
for that many years...
649
00:34:28,762 --> 00:34:30,329
There was no murder.
650
00:34:30,459 --> 00:34:32,113
People who murder
people get out in less
651
00:34:32,244 --> 00:34:33,636
time than with these boys.
652
00:34:40,165 --> 00:34:43,777
This sounds like thecourts
approved some briefs
653
00:34:43,907 --> 00:34:44,952
from the forensic court.
654
00:34:45,083 --> 00:34:46,083
Sounds good.
655
00:34:48,347 --> 00:34:49,087
Change.
656
00:34:49,217 --> 00:34:50,566
You're clicking the wrong one.
657
00:34:50,697 --> 00:34:51,698
The wrong button.
658
00:34:51,828 --> 00:34:52,828
Thank you.
659
00:34:54,701 --> 00:34:57,312
"Appeals
courtapproved two supported briefs.
660
00:34:57,443 --> 00:34:59,575
Several groups not
directly associated
661
00:34:59,706 --> 00:35:02,665
with the Elkhart Four have
askedto file briefs in the appeals."
662
00:35:02,796 --> 00:35:04,034
So these are people that just
663
00:35:04,058 --> 00:35:05,929
asked if they could
put their two cents in
664
00:35:06,060 --> 00:35:07,453
and the judge approved it?
665
00:35:07,583 --> 00:35:09,455
"Each of these
amicus are being filed
666
00:35:09,585 --> 00:35:11,239
in support of Blake and Levi.
667
00:35:11,370 --> 00:35:13,850
It is easy to guess that
they will be relying
668
00:35:13,981 --> 00:35:16,766
on recent scientific
evidencedifferentiating the adolescent
669
00:35:16,897 --> 00:35:20,118
from the adult brain to
supporttheir submission to the court."
670
00:35:20,248 --> 00:35:21,467
Huh.
671
00:35:21,597 --> 00:35:24,861
So I'm assuming the judgecould say,
no, they don't
672
00:35:24,992 --> 00:35:26,776
have nothing to do with it?
673
00:35:26,907 --> 00:35:29,649
But they're accepting it.
674
00:35:29,779 --> 00:35:32,347
So I guess that's
really good news, yeah.
675
00:35:32,478 --> 00:35:33,261
And I like this...
676
00:35:33,392 --> 00:35:34,697
Hold on, he's calling.
677
00:35:34,828 --> 00:35:36,743
Tell him I said hi.
678
00:35:36,873 --> 00:35:37,873
BLAKE Blake.
679
00:35:37,918 --> 00:35:38,998
To accept charges, press 4.
680
00:35:39,789 --> 00:35:41,574
Hello?
681
00:35:41,704 --> 00:35:42,704
Hi.
682
00:35:45,273 --> 00:35:46,753
Good morning.
683
00:35:46,883 --> 00:35:48,407
Maybe we should call the lawyer
684
00:35:48,537 --> 00:35:51,497
and ask her these
questionsabout these updates.
685
00:35:51,627 --> 00:35:52,672
All right.
686
00:35:52,802 --> 00:35:54,215
She's usually really
good about letting us
687
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:55,479
know everything anyways, but...
688
00:36:01,681 --> 00:36:02,875
We're bothering
her on a Saturday.
689
00:36:02,899 --> 00:36:04,597
I know.
690
00:36:04,727 --> 00:36:07,167
Probably if she doesn't want tobe bothered,
she won't answer.
691
00:36:07,252 --> 00:36:07,991
Kind of like.
692
00:36:08,122 --> 00:36:09,317
Cara. - Yeah.
693
00:36:09,341 --> 00:36:10,341
Hi, Cara.
694
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:13,780
All right, fine.
695
00:36:13,910 --> 00:36:16,739
I'll just buy myself a ring.
696
00:36:16,870 --> 00:36:17,610
I'm just kidding.
697
00:36:17,740 --> 00:36:18,959
Calm down.
698
00:36:19,089 --> 00:36:20,090
I wish you were here.
699
00:36:24,486 --> 00:36:27,533
We had somequestions on the appeals.
700
00:36:27,663 --> 00:36:31,406
We've told you about
theblog for the Elkhart Four?
701
00:36:31,537 --> 00:36:32,644
Let me just read you
a little bit of it.
702
00:36:32,668 --> 00:36:35,062
"The Indiana Court of
Appealsapproved the inclusion
703
00:36:35,193 --> 00:36:38,674
of two amicus briefs
submittedby friends of the court,
704
00:36:38,805 --> 00:36:41,155
supporting the appeals
filed by Blake Layman
705
00:36:41,286 --> 00:36:44,593
and Levi Sparks for their
2013felony murder conviction."
706
00:36:44,724 --> 00:36:46,658
So I guess we're askingexactly
what does that mean?
707
00:36:46,682 --> 00:36:47,962
That's a good,
good thing, right?
708
00:36:54,908 --> 00:36:55,909
That's good.
709
00:36:56,039 --> 00:36:57,084
Yeah.
710
00:36:57,215 --> 00:36:58,415
Are you hopeful at this point?
711
00:37:03,003 --> 00:37:05,788
Hey, what time are
you gonna call me later?
712
00:37:05,919 --> 00:37:06,919
10:00?
713
00:37:09,401 --> 00:37:10,401
OK.
714
00:37:15,015 --> 00:37:18,627
10:30?
715
00:37:18,758 --> 00:37:19,933
Oh.
716
00:37:20,063 --> 00:37:23,284
Like, 4:00 and then 10:00.
717
00:37:38,430 --> 00:37:39,710
Oh, because he
wasn't a juvenile.
718
00:37:50,833 --> 00:37:51,833
Right, right.
719
00:37:55,490 --> 00:37:56,890
I'm just worried about..
720
00:37:59,451 --> 00:38:01,017
I feel like he's
getting left behind.
721
00:38:01,148 --> 00:38:03,498
Yeah.
722
00:38:03,629 --> 00:38:04,456
I miss you, too.
723
00:38:04,586 --> 00:38:06,501
Be good.
724
00:38:06,632 --> 00:38:07,981
And keep your head up.
725
00:38:08,111 --> 00:38:10,392
And call me at 4:00 or I'llpunch
you in the nose, and OK.
726
00:38:10,505 --> 00:38:11,289
You have one minute left.
727
00:38:11,419 --> 00:38:13,682
I love you.
728
00:38:13,813 --> 00:38:14,857
I miss you, too.
729
00:38:14,988 --> 00:38:17,251
K, bye.
730
00:38:17,382 --> 00:38:18,252
Love you.
731
00:38:18,383 --> 00:38:19,601
I really...
732
00:38:19,732 --> 00:38:20,796
I have a lot of faith in her.
733
00:38:20,820 --> 00:38:21,690
I do too.
734
00:38:21,821 --> 00:38:22,691
And she does sound
pretty confident.
735
00:38:22,822 --> 00:38:23,822
I like that.
736
00:39:04,037 --> 00:39:06,953
This is my first
visit right here.
737
00:39:07,083 --> 00:39:09,738
It was the first time
Iactually got to give Katherine
738
00:39:09,869 --> 00:39:11,349
a hug in, like, a year.
739
00:39:11,479 --> 00:39:12,479
Or a little over a year.
740
00:39:16,789 --> 00:39:18,878
She's always been there for me.
741
00:39:19,008 --> 00:39:22,185
And it helps so much to
look forward to that,
742
00:39:22,316 --> 00:39:26,189
to have someone to call,
to have someone to talk to.
743
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,236
To even just, you know,
complain about your day,
744
00:39:29,367 --> 00:39:32,544
or hear them complain
about their day.
745
00:39:32,674 --> 00:39:34,546
And I want to show
her that, you know,
746
00:39:34,676 --> 00:39:36,678
I really do mean when
I say, I really do mean
747
00:39:36,809 --> 00:39:38,009
I want to be with you forever.
748
00:39:38,071 --> 00:39:38,898
You know, I'm not...
749
00:39:39,028 --> 00:39:40,029
Not leading you on.
750
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,163
I'm not doing anything
like that, you know?
751
00:39:43,293 --> 00:39:44,382
I proposed to her.
752
00:39:44,512 --> 00:39:45,818
You know, I...
753
00:39:45,948 --> 00:39:47,883
I kind of can't do it, youknow,
the normal way in here.
754
00:39:47,907 --> 00:39:50,866
But I called my
grandma and told her,
755
00:39:50,997 --> 00:39:53,149
you know, hey,
tell her yougot a T-shirt or something,
756
00:39:53,173 --> 00:39:54,435
you know.
757
00:39:54,566 --> 00:39:55,847
Have her come over
to the house, and you
758
00:39:55,871 --> 00:39:57,090
give her this ring for me.
759
00:39:57,220 --> 00:40:00,876
And I called her
later on that night.
760
00:40:01,007 --> 00:40:03,202
Or I called her earlier that
dayand told her, you know, like,
761
00:40:03,226 --> 00:40:04,226
will you marry me?
762
00:40:04,314 --> 00:40:05,533
And obviously she said, yeah.
763
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:33,560
Rick moved out.
764
00:40:36,825 --> 00:40:38,625
It's just a lot of
stresson the relationship.
765
00:40:41,830 --> 00:40:43,484
It was overwhelming for him.
766
00:40:43,615 --> 00:40:45,138
You're locked up
for this many years,
767
00:40:45,268 --> 00:40:47,749
and you get out to
your child locked up.
768
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,795
And now you're on
the other side, and...
769
00:40:49,925 --> 00:40:51,765
Where before,
it wasalways Blake visiting him.
770
00:40:55,148 --> 00:40:58,412
We argued sometimes about
moneybecause he didn't understand.
771
00:40:58,543 --> 00:41:00,414
He didn't even know how
to control the lights
772
00:41:00,545 --> 00:41:02,024
because he's never had to.
773
00:41:02,155 --> 00:41:03,872
So, like, I would come home,
and every light in the house
774
00:41:03,896 --> 00:41:05,027
would be on.
775
00:41:05,158 --> 00:41:07,078
And I wouldn't complainabout
it because I knew...
776
00:41:07,116 --> 00:41:08,746
In the back of my head, I'mlike,
gosh, that's because he's
777
00:41:08,770 --> 00:41:10,119
been locked up for so long.
778
00:41:10,250 --> 00:41:11,450
He didn't understand finances.
779
00:41:14,123 --> 00:41:16,735
I think it was easier for
himto walk away and just leave
780
00:41:16,865 --> 00:41:20,652
the situation and
not focus on what
781
00:41:20,782 --> 00:41:21,942
I have to focus on every day.
782
00:41:34,448 --> 00:41:35,928
How do you feel about your MRI?
783
00:41:36,058 --> 00:41:36,798
Crappy.
784
00:41:36,929 --> 00:41:38,017
Crappy?
785
00:41:38,147 --> 00:41:39,507
Because I don't
want to go in there
786
00:41:39,584 --> 00:41:40,944
and sit there for
an hour, and then
787
00:41:41,020 --> 00:41:42,127
have to go to an
eye appointment.
788
00:41:42,151 --> 00:41:42,978
You just don't wanna do it?
789
00:41:43,109 --> 00:41:44,458
No. I'm tired.
790
00:41:44,589 --> 00:41:45,589
Me too.
791
00:42:02,694 --> 00:42:04,522
I feel real nauseous.
792
00:42:04,652 --> 00:42:05,652
Do you?
793
00:42:10,179 --> 00:42:12,181
All right, sweetie.
794
00:42:12,312 --> 00:42:16,577
I want you to just look
at the green line, OK?
795
00:42:16,708 --> 00:42:17,752
Cool.
796
00:42:17,883 --> 00:42:20,059
Now put your arm back
under this blanket here.
797
00:42:20,189 --> 00:42:21,843
Or anything, OK?
798
00:42:21,974 --> 00:42:23,081
Thanks for doing
such a good job.
799
00:42:23,105 --> 00:42:31,105
Oh?
800
00:42:36,858 --> 00:42:37,946
Awesome.
801
00:42:38,077 --> 00:42:39,121
Thank you.
802
00:42:39,252 --> 00:42:39,992
You're welcome.
803
00:42:40,122 --> 00:42:41,254
So close.
804
00:42:41,384 --> 00:42:44,039
I wonder if that's Blake.
805
00:42:44,170 --> 00:42:45,432
It is.
806
00:42:45,563 --> 00:42:47,521
Uh.
807
00:42:47,652 --> 00:42:48,783
Did he remember?
808
00:42:48,914 --> 00:42:51,003
I don't know, maybe.
809
00:42:51,133 --> 00:42:52,831
Hi, Son.
810
00:42:52,961 --> 00:42:53,701
What's up?
811
00:42:53,832 --> 00:42:54,920
How are you?
812
00:42:55,050 --> 00:42:56,050
Yeah.
813
00:42:58,097 --> 00:42:59,228
That's awesome.
814
00:42:59,359 --> 00:43:01,279
Right, because Destinywas like,
did he remember?
815
00:43:03,363 --> 00:43:04,363
Hello?
816
00:43:08,629 --> 00:43:10,065
Hi, is Destiny in here?
817
00:43:10,196 --> 00:43:11,414
Yeah, she's in here.
818
00:43:11,545 --> 00:43:14,026
All right, I love you too.
819
00:43:14,156 --> 00:43:16,158
All right, bye.
820
00:43:16,289 --> 00:43:17,290
Let's check you out.
821
00:43:21,990 --> 00:43:23,350
Have you been feeling well?- Yeah.
822
00:43:23,383 --> 00:43:24,123
I'm sorry, Son.
823
00:43:24,253 --> 00:43:25,603
I need to talk to the doctor.
824
00:43:25,733 --> 00:43:26,604
I love you too, Son.
825
00:43:26,734 --> 00:43:27,734
I miss you a lot.
826
00:43:39,529 --> 00:43:40,942
Now, There's a battle
827
00:43:40,966 --> 00:43:42,857
in Indiana for the job asthe
state's attorney general.
828
00:43:42,881 --> 00:43:44,119
That's right.
829
00:43:44,143 --> 00:43:46,449
Curtis Hill has prosecutedcases
in Elkhart County
830
00:43:46,580 --> 00:43:47,973
since the early 2000s.
831
00:43:48,103 --> 00:43:49,757
But he's looking to
start a new chapter
832
00:43:49,888 --> 00:43:51,846
in his political career.
833
00:43:51,977 --> 00:43:53,935
Hill argues the skills
for an Attorney General
834
00:43:54,066 --> 00:43:56,155
are very similar to
that of a prosecutor.
835
00:43:56,285 --> 00:43:57,678
There's fact finding in that.
836
00:43:57,809 --> 00:43:59,158
There's investigation review.
837
00:43:59,288 --> 00:44:02,814
There's a determination
ofwrong conduct and right conduct.
838
00:44:02,944 --> 00:44:05,860
And then you expand
that to an entire state.
839
00:44:05,991 --> 00:44:10,169
And the idea is to
create a tenor of safety
840
00:44:10,299 --> 00:44:14,173
for as many people as possible.
841
00:44:57,695 --> 00:44:59,261
Welcome, everybody.
842
00:44:59,392 --> 00:45:03,004
This morning,
normalvisitation rules don't apply.
843
00:45:03,135 --> 00:45:06,965
So you can give your
welcoming hug and kiss,
844
00:45:07,095 --> 00:45:08,314
and we'll get started.
845
00:45:08,444 --> 00:45:09,184
I love you.
846
00:45:09,315 --> 00:45:11,099
I love you.
847
00:45:11,230 --> 00:45:14,015
All right, I want you
to look at your partner.
848
00:45:14,146 --> 00:45:16,235
Look them square in theeye,
and just say, honey.
849
00:45:16,365 --> 00:45:17,236
Honey.
850
00:45:17,366 --> 00:45:18,759
Let's talk.
851
00:45:18,890 --> 00:45:20,761
Honey, let's talk.
852
00:45:20,892 --> 00:45:22,632
What does goodcommunication look, like?
853
00:45:22,763 --> 00:45:24,678
Just brainstorm
that for a minute.
854
00:45:24,809 --> 00:45:26,375
What's that say?
855
00:45:26,506 --> 00:45:27,376
Listening and understanding.
856
00:45:27,507 --> 00:45:28,707
How much do you care...
857
00:45:28,769 --> 00:45:30,902
Truly care... about
that individual
858
00:45:31,032 --> 00:45:35,863
that you have to put
somebody down like that.
859
00:45:35,994 --> 00:45:37,493
When we talk about puttingdown,
how do you think
860
00:45:37,517 --> 00:45:41,042
it affects your physical state?
861
00:46:24,999 --> 00:46:27,959
It's hard not to
get discouraged.
862
00:46:28,089 --> 00:46:31,963
I don't want to forever belabeled
a murderer because when
863
00:46:32,093 --> 00:46:34,226
I got out to get a job,
they look up my background,
864
00:46:34,356 --> 00:46:35,420
and it's going to say murder.
865
00:46:35,444 --> 00:46:36,726
It's not going to
say felony murder
866
00:46:36,750 --> 00:46:38,491
and tell them all about my case.
867
00:46:38,621 --> 00:46:41,059
It's going to say murder.
868
00:46:41,189 --> 00:46:42,749
Not a lot of people
will look over that.
869
00:46:50,590 --> 00:46:55,987
My earliest possible
releasedate is April 3, 2040.
870
00:46:56,117 --> 00:46:57,717
That's my earliest
possible release date.
871
00:47:01,644 --> 00:47:03,081
I don't think it takes 27 year...
872
00:47:03,211 --> 00:47:06,867
27 and 1/2 years to figureout,
OK, I fucked up.
873
00:47:06,998 --> 00:47:10,479
OK, I need to change
mymindset to be better to change
874
00:47:10,610 --> 00:47:12,525
and succeed in society.
875
00:47:12,655 --> 00:47:15,658
Become something.
876
00:47:15,789 --> 00:47:18,618
For me, I know it
didn't take that long.
877
00:47:18,748 --> 00:47:20,028
Hell, I feel like I'm ready now.
878
00:47:23,928 --> 00:47:26,365
I've been down here two years.
879
00:47:26,495 --> 00:47:29,107
I'll do some more time
on top of it, though.
880
00:47:29,237 --> 00:47:30,021
I committed a crime.
881
00:47:30,151 --> 00:47:30,891
I'll sit here, you know?
882
00:47:31,022 --> 00:47:32,545
That's part of the consequences.
883
00:47:32,675 --> 00:47:35,678
But 20-something years?
884
00:47:35,809 --> 00:47:39,117
You know,
I feel like thattakes away from the things
885
00:47:39,247 --> 00:47:41,684
that you decided you
were going to change.
886
00:47:41,815 --> 00:47:43,208
And you're surrounded
by negative.
887
00:47:43,338 --> 00:47:45,471
You're surrounded by fighting.
888
00:47:45,601 --> 00:47:48,561
But you have to continueto
keep a good mentality,
889
00:47:48,691 --> 00:47:49,997
like, OK, I can do better.
890
00:47:50,128 --> 00:47:53,305
I can still become
something in life.
891
00:47:53,435 --> 00:47:56,177
I imagine myself in an
apartment, you know?
892
00:47:56,308 --> 00:47:57,708
Hell, probably with
a kid, you know?
893
00:48:01,748 --> 00:48:02,748
This is where I am.
894
00:48:05,665 --> 00:48:07,145
It's sad and it sucks.
895
00:48:19,374 --> 00:48:21,014
Over time, they just
kind of wear you down
896
00:48:21,115 --> 00:48:22,551
and wear you down.
897
00:48:22,682 --> 00:48:23,682
Your visit's here.
898
00:48:23,770 --> 00:48:24,640
OK.
899
00:48:24,771 --> 00:48:25,771
Thank you.
900
00:48:37,610 --> 00:48:39,762
That's one of my biggestfears,
is it's going to like...
901
00:48:39,786 --> 00:48:43,746
It messing up my mindset,
andl have less regard for getting
902
00:48:43,877 --> 00:48:45,270
in trouble from now on.
903
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,576
And then letting my family down.
904
00:48:47,707 --> 00:48:51,189
And that's not
what I want to do.
905
00:48:51,319 --> 00:48:52,059
We're good?
906
00:48:52,190 --> 00:48:54,192
Yep, you're good.
907
00:48:54,322 --> 00:48:56,368
They're there for
me, and I need to...
908
00:48:56,498 --> 00:49:01,590
I need to continue to proveto
them that I'm doing right.
909
00:49:01,721 --> 00:49:02,461
Baby bird.
910
00:49:02,591 --> 00:49:03,636
Baby bird!
911
00:49:03,766 --> 00:49:04,506
Aww.
912
00:49:04,637 --> 00:49:05,637
Yup.
913
00:49:19,521 --> 00:49:22,176
You know,
you had manya boyfriends before Blake
914
00:49:22,307 --> 00:49:24,918
that I did not like,
did not care for.
915
00:49:25,049 --> 00:49:29,227
They were completely
unrespectful.
916
00:49:29,357 --> 00:49:31,969
And Blake came in here
day one, and I told you
917
00:49:32,099 --> 00:49:33,796
the first day that I liked him.
918
00:49:33,927 --> 00:49:35,363
And he's got a
really good heart,
919
00:49:35,494 --> 00:49:38,279
and he made a bad mistake.
920
00:49:38,410 --> 00:49:39,996
And the last thing he
needed was for people
921
00:49:40,020 --> 00:49:42,153
to walk away from him.
922
00:49:42,283 --> 00:49:44,807
He deserves a secondchance,
just like everybody
923
00:49:44,938 --> 00:49:46,592
deserves a second chance.
924
00:49:46,722 --> 00:49:49,682
And we're very proud
for sticking with Blake,
925
00:49:49,812 --> 00:49:53,207
because, you know,
he's a goodkid that does not deserve this.
926
00:49:53,338 --> 00:49:54,861
Yes, he was a good kid.
927
00:49:54,992 --> 00:49:56,254
And we are going to fight.
928
00:49:56,384 --> 00:49:57,516
We are going national.
929
00:49:57,646 --> 00:50:00,606
We are going to get all
the research that we
930
00:50:00,736 --> 00:50:02,912
can on all the other cases.
931
00:50:03,043 --> 00:50:04,740
And I'll always
be Blake's friend.
932
00:50:04,871 --> 00:50:08,570
And I'll always have
aplace in my heart for Blake.
933
00:50:08,701 --> 00:50:15,142
But do I think that Iwant
you to spend 45 years
934
00:50:15,273 --> 00:50:16,883
holding your life for Blake?
935
00:50:17,014 --> 00:50:17,753
No.
936
00:50:17,884 --> 00:50:18,972
No.
937
00:50:19,103 --> 00:50:20,103
That's not what I want.
938
00:50:22,845 --> 00:50:23,629
Take his phone calls.
939
00:50:23,759 --> 00:50:24,499
Be his friend.
940
00:50:24,630 --> 00:50:26,240
Hold his hand.
941
00:50:26,371 --> 00:50:30,331
Never stop being
that boy's friend.
942
00:50:30,462 --> 00:50:32,462
But you're going to haveto
move on with your life.
943
00:50:35,858 --> 00:50:38,426
You can't wait 40 years.
944
00:50:38,557 --> 00:50:39,557
You know that.
945
00:50:55,791 --> 00:50:58,751
Obviously,
Katherine isvery passionate about Blake
946
00:50:58,881 --> 00:51:02,102
and loves Blake with
her entire heart.
947
00:51:02,233 --> 00:51:06,367
So it was an extremely
difficult conversation.
948
00:51:06,498 --> 00:51:08,369
But I felt that,
as a mother, I need
949
00:51:08,500 --> 00:51:11,894
to make sure that
she's OK, because she's
950
00:51:12,025 --> 00:51:14,767
obviously my number one.
951
00:51:14,897 --> 00:51:18,162
Also, I wrote a letter
to Blake and asked
952
00:51:18,292 --> 00:51:22,601
him to let her go
becauseit's not fair to her
953
00:51:22,731 --> 00:51:26,083
for him to expect
her to stay with him.
954
00:51:26,213 --> 00:51:32,132
But he had no intentionsof
letting her go either.
955
00:51:32,263 --> 00:51:33,457
The Indiana Supreme Court
956
00:51:33,481 --> 00:51:35,353
is pushing back anappeals hearing for three
957
00:51:35,483 --> 00:51:37,746
of the so-called Elkhart Four.
958
00:51:37,877 --> 00:51:40,077
The court was scheduled
tohear arguments this Wednesday
959
00:51:40,140 --> 00:51:43,622
in the appeal of Blake Layman,
Levi Sparks, and Anthony Sharp.
960
00:51:43,752 --> 00:51:46,146
It will now take place
in late February.
961
00:51:46,277 --> 00:51:47,930
Defense attorneys
will have 20 minutes
962
00:51:48,061 --> 00:51:50,281
to explain why the
court should toss out
963
00:51:50,411 --> 00:51:51,997
their felony murder
convictions, or at least
964
00:51:52,021 --> 00:51:53,110
lessen their sentences.
965
00:52:11,911 --> 00:52:14,151
Hearing that appeal didn'tgo
through was extremely hard.
966
00:52:16,916 --> 00:52:17,917
Times are hard right now.
967
00:52:18,047 --> 00:52:21,181
There's a lot of
money going out.
968
00:52:21,312 --> 00:52:22,965
We actually had to get a loan.
969
00:52:23,096 --> 00:52:25,490
It's been a long process.
970
00:52:25,620 --> 00:52:28,057
And Blake still doesneed
to be taken care of.
971
00:52:28,188 --> 00:52:29,383
I know some people
say, well, he's fine.
972
00:52:29,407 --> 00:52:30,756
They don't need money.
973
00:52:30,886 --> 00:52:33,759
Well, they don't... yeah,
theyget their three meals a day.
974
00:52:33,889 --> 00:52:35,289
Do they have enough
hygiene to last?
975
00:52:35,326 --> 00:52:36,065
No.
976
00:52:36,196 --> 00:52:37,276
Do they get paper for free?
977
00:52:37,328 --> 00:52:38,111
No.
978
00:52:38,242 --> 00:52:41,114
You know, they
need all that too.
979
00:52:41,245 --> 00:52:43,421
So I still have to take
care of Blake also.
980
00:52:48,295 --> 00:52:50,341
Unfortunately, we can
see him every two weeks,
981
00:52:50,471 --> 00:52:53,605
but I've had to postpone
every two weeks.
982
00:52:53,735 --> 00:52:58,044
I can't afford to do everytwo weeks,
unfortunately.
983
00:52:58,175 --> 00:53:00,699
I have a used
vehicle that's older.
984
00:53:00,829 --> 00:53:04,398
And we did have the
incidentof going to see Blake,
985
00:53:04,529 --> 00:53:06,095
and the vehicle breaking down.
986
00:53:06,226 --> 00:53:07,401
And we're, you know...
987
00:53:07,532 --> 00:53:08,944
I mean, to get stranded
in Indianapolis.
988
00:53:08,968 --> 00:53:13,494
There's a lot of risk, too,
of driving 4 and 1/2 hours.
989
00:53:13,625 --> 00:53:15,385
It's really hard,
becausel'd be there every two weeks.
990
00:53:15,409 --> 00:53:19,761
And if we lived close,
we'dbe there every two weeks.
991
00:53:19,892 --> 00:53:22,416
And so that's kind ofupsetting sometimes,
to know...
992
00:53:22,547 --> 00:53:23,654
I mean, there's been
times where I didn't
993
00:53:23,678 --> 00:53:24,742
even have money on my phone.
994
00:53:24,766 --> 00:53:26,464
And when he calls,
that's heartbreaking,
995
00:53:26,594 --> 00:53:28,224
knowing I can't answer
the phone because I
996
00:53:28,248 --> 00:53:29,728
don't have money on the phone.
997
00:53:29,858 --> 00:53:31,773
It's very heartbreaking.
998
00:53:31,904 --> 00:53:33,427
And same with other boys.
999
00:53:33,558 --> 00:53:35,951
It's like, you know,
Anthony calls a lot.
1000
00:53:36,082 --> 00:53:38,780
And it's hard for me all
thetime to answer his phone call.
1001
00:53:38,911 --> 00:53:41,311
Sometimes I just don't have
themoney to answer it, you know?
1002
00:53:46,658 --> 00:53:47,963
How much was that bag of candy?
1003
00:53:48,094 --> 00:53:51,140
Um, $3, because it was...
1004
00:53:51,271 --> 00:53:54,318
So doing this for anotheryear
or so to see if we can
1005
00:53:54,448 --> 00:53:56,102
get in front of the
Indiana Supreme Court
1006
00:53:56,233 --> 00:53:57,451
is not going to be easy.
1007
00:53:57,582 --> 00:53:58,322
Take care.
1008
00:53:58,452 --> 00:53:59,452
You too.
1009
00:55:40,554 --> 00:55:43,557
My parents struggle
a lot with the fact
1010
00:55:43,688 --> 00:55:47,779
that I was going to stickwith
Blake no matter what.
1011
00:55:47,909 --> 00:55:49,128
I mean, they want me happy.
1012
00:55:58,529 --> 00:56:00,879
But Blake's not my friend.
1013
00:56:01,009 --> 00:56:02,129
I want him to be my husband.
1014
00:56:05,318 --> 00:56:07,886
And I would never give that up.
1015
00:56:11,585 --> 00:56:15,807
Letting her
stickby him was really hard.
1016
00:56:15,937 --> 00:56:18,984
But the two of them are going
toget married, whether we want it
1017
00:56:19,114 --> 00:56:20,899
or not.
1018
00:56:21,029 --> 00:56:25,599
So you just decide that
you'regoing to do what you want,
1019
00:56:25,730 --> 00:56:28,167
and we're going to be righthere beside you,
whether we
1020
00:56:28,297 --> 00:56:30,865
agree with it or not.
1021
00:56:30,996 --> 00:56:36,001
And I do feel, someday,
he'll be my son-in-law.
1022
00:56:36,131 --> 00:56:37,131
And I'm OK with that.
1023
00:56:50,407 --> 00:56:52,060
Blake won me this
at the Indiana Beach.
1024
00:56:55,803 --> 00:56:59,546
This found some stuff up there.
1025
00:56:59,677 --> 00:57:01,156
Alcohol stashed up there.
1026
00:57:01,287 --> 00:57:02,680
Busted!
1027
00:57:02,810 --> 00:57:04,440
I guess that's what
happens when you move.
1028
00:57:04,464 --> 00:57:06,184
You find things that
you forgot where there.
1029
00:57:23,048 --> 00:57:26,312
Moving out of my
parents'house is a big step.
1030
00:57:26,443 --> 00:57:29,837
Blake, I suppose, would
be doing this too.
1031
00:57:29,968 --> 00:57:31,808
A step I wish I didn't
have to be taking alone.
1032
00:57:31,839 --> 00:57:35,103
But maybe he'll be there
whenl graduate college, and...
1033
00:57:35,234 --> 00:57:36,670
You know.
1034
00:57:36,801 --> 00:57:37,865
So there's always
somethingelse to look forward
1035
00:57:37,889 --> 00:57:40,282
to that he can be there for.
1036
00:57:40,413 --> 00:57:43,024
That's my motivation, basically.
1037
00:57:43,155 --> 00:57:45,766
Get through this just to
gethim home and start my life.
1038
00:58:04,350 --> 00:58:05,786
The greatest equation.
1039
00:58:05,917 --> 00:58:09,268
All of love in the worldplus
compassion and trust
1040
00:58:09,398 --> 00:58:14,926
times infinity divided by youand
me minus where I'm at now
1041
00:58:15,056 --> 00:58:18,756
equals Blake and
KatherineLayman forever and always.
1042
00:58:18,886 --> 00:58:20,322
That's cute.
1043
00:58:20,453 --> 00:58:22,586
I got that back when
he was in County.
1044
00:58:22,716 --> 00:58:23,716
Got a lot of stuff.
1045
00:58:29,854 --> 00:58:31,440
Tonight, major new developments.
1046
00:58:31,464 --> 00:58:33,094
The
IndianaSupreme Court will hear
1047
00:58:33,118 --> 00:58:34,958
arguments this Wednesday
in the appeal of three
1048
00:58:34,989 --> 00:58:37,035
of the so-called Elkhart Four...
1049
00:58:37,165 --> 00:58:39,341
Blake Layman, LeviSparks,
and Anthony Sharp.
1050
00:58:47,175 --> 00:58:49,134
Hi.
1051
00:58:49,264 --> 00:58:50,570
Scared? Nervous?
1052
00:58:50,701 --> 00:58:51,440
Yeah.
1053
00:58:51,571 --> 00:58:53,312
See what happens.
1054
00:58:53,442 --> 00:58:55,183
So, in the morning...
1055
00:58:55,314 --> 00:58:58,012
I mean,
I figure we shouldbe up by at least 5:00
1056
00:58:58,143 --> 00:59:01,233
and on the road no
later than 6:30.
1057
00:59:01,363 --> 00:59:03,801
Tomorrow,
I'mgoing into the Supreme Court.
1058
00:59:03,931 --> 00:59:05,716
Not really sure what to feel.
1059
00:59:05,846 --> 00:59:09,720
I mean, the worst
scenario could be
1060
00:59:09,850 --> 00:59:11,896
them sticking with
a felony murder law
1061
00:59:12,026 --> 00:59:14,289
and him doing 45 years.
1062
00:59:14,420 --> 00:59:16,901
Or he could be coming home.
1063
00:59:17,031 --> 00:59:19,425
They could just
dismiss the case, and...
1064
00:59:19,556 --> 00:59:22,471
So I don't know what to feel.
1065
00:59:22,602 --> 00:59:24,082
I'm trying not to
get too excited.
1066
00:59:43,275 --> 00:59:44,929
We are going
in front of the judge.
1067
00:59:45,059 --> 00:59:47,584
And our lawyers are
goingto argue our point of why
1068
00:59:47,714 --> 00:59:49,281
felony murder
should not have been
1069
00:59:49,411 --> 00:59:50,531
applied to the Elkhart Four.
1070
00:59:53,111 --> 00:59:56,897
The felony murder rule
is very controversial.
1071
00:59:57,028 --> 00:59:59,030
From state to state,
it changes the wording.
1072
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:01,815
It's not very clear on
who should be charged,
1073
01:00:01,946 --> 01:00:02,946
who shouldn't be.
1074
01:00:03,034 --> 01:00:04,818
Should we chargejuveniles, should we not.
1075
01:00:04,949 --> 01:00:07,647
And in the Elkhart case,
Ithink a big part would be
1076
01:00:07,778 --> 01:00:09,388
there was no intent for harm.
1077
01:00:09,518 --> 01:00:10,718
There was no weapons involved.
1078
01:00:16,134 --> 01:00:17,415
I don't know whether to be
1079
01:00:17,439 --> 01:00:23,750
excited or scared or
nervous or throw up.
1080
01:00:23,881 --> 01:00:24,969
It can go anywhere.
1081
01:00:30,670 --> 01:00:34,195
They might not drop everythingand be like,
OK, you can go.
1082
01:00:34,326 --> 01:00:37,285
But I have faith that my
years will get dropped
1083
01:00:37,416 --> 01:00:38,635
to something a lot less.
1084
01:00:43,161 --> 01:00:45,729
Can you explain to me, like,
exactly what this court can do?
1085
01:00:45,859 --> 01:00:47,774
They're going to
grant or deny transfer.
1086
01:00:47,905 --> 01:00:52,213
And then if they take it andsay,
this is not felony murder,
1087
01:00:52,344 --> 01:00:55,303
then it goes back to juvenilecourt,
in Blake's case.
1088
01:00:55,434 --> 01:00:57,958
We're hoping that
the Supreme Court will
1089
01:00:58,089 --> 01:00:59,689
drop to felony murder
ruling against them
1090
01:00:59,786 --> 01:01:02,615
and charge them with the
crimethat they actually did commit.
1091
01:01:15,759 --> 01:01:16,866
I'm looking forward
1092
01:01:16,890 --> 01:01:18,805
to hearing the argument.
1093
01:01:18,936 --> 01:01:21,547
The appellants are
Blake Layman, Levi
1094
01:01:21,678 --> 01:01:23,984
Sparks, and Anthony Sharp Jr.
1095
01:01:24,115 --> 01:01:25,682
Indiana's felony murder statute
1096
01:01:25,812 --> 01:01:28,032
uses the action
verb "kills," and it
1097
01:01:28,162 --> 01:01:30,077
refers back to the felon.
1098
01:01:30,208 --> 01:01:32,863
So it's the felon who
must do the killing.
1099
01:01:32,993 --> 01:01:34,778
Not the victim of
the original crime.
1100
01:01:34,908 --> 01:01:36,214
Not the victim, Your Honor, yes.
1101
01:01:36,344 --> 01:01:38,540
And then we have the questionof
whether this is even felony
1102
01:01:38,564 --> 01:01:41,262
murder as a matter of law.
1103
01:01:41,393 --> 01:01:44,701
You can kill by causing death.
1104
01:01:44,831 --> 01:01:46,267
You don't have to
pull the trigger.
1105
01:01:46,398 --> 01:01:47,921
You have to cause death.
1106
01:01:48,052 --> 01:01:50,160
And if you cause death
byplunging a knife in someone's
1107
01:01:50,184 --> 01:01:51,751
breast, yes, you've murdered.
1108
01:01:51,882 --> 01:01:54,536
If you cause death by
notwarning someone the bridge is
1109
01:01:54,667 --> 01:01:56,756
out, you've killed.
1110
01:01:56,887 --> 01:01:59,498
They did try to target a
housethat they thought was empty.
1111
01:01:59,628 --> 01:02:01,369
They went in unarmed.
1112
01:02:01,500 --> 01:02:03,720
They were trying
to limit the harm.
1113
01:02:03,850 --> 01:02:05,436
They weren't trying to avoid it.
1114
01:02:05,460 --> 01:02:08,202
If they were trying to avoidit,
they would've stayed home.
1115
01:02:08,333 --> 01:02:11,597
16-year-olds are old enough,
at least, to know this much...
1116
01:02:11,728 --> 01:02:14,382
That if you burglarize
someone'shome in a way that makes
1117
01:02:14,513 --> 01:02:17,472
them fear for their life,
thenyou are guilty of felony murder
1118
01:02:17,603 --> 01:02:18,603
if a death results.
1119
01:02:23,478 --> 01:02:24,891
The Indiana Supreme
1120
01:02:24,915 --> 01:02:28,832
Court did not decide if itwill
hear Blake Layman's case.
1121
01:02:28,962 --> 01:02:30,398
Just simply heard arguments.
1122
01:02:30,529 --> 01:02:32,923
No timetable for adecision
has been released.
1123
01:02:33,053 --> 01:02:34,707
We'll continue to
watch for developments.
1124
01:03:00,646 --> 01:03:02,604
I don't like being alone.
1125
01:03:02,735 --> 01:03:04,084
It's boring.
1126
01:03:04,215 --> 01:03:05,215
Sad.
1127
01:03:10,264 --> 01:03:13,050
I work a full-time job, doors.
1128
01:03:13,180 --> 01:03:14,486
And they'll come
off the machine,
1129
01:03:14,616 --> 01:03:17,010
and I catch them and
place them on the skid,
1130
01:03:17,141 --> 01:03:18,541
and take the skids
over to shipping.
1131
01:03:21,754 --> 01:03:25,410
But even though I'm
working a full-time job,
1132
01:03:25,540 --> 01:03:27,064
I can't really go
out and do things
1133
01:03:27,194 --> 01:03:31,285
like I used to be able
tobecause I don't have the money.
1134
01:03:31,416 --> 01:03:33,418
I pay rent.
1135
01:03:33,548 --> 01:03:35,028
Truck payment.
1136
01:03:35,159 --> 01:03:39,163
And then, on top of that,
Ihave Blake, which is about $500
1137
01:03:39,293 --> 01:03:40,599
a month.
1138
01:03:40,729 --> 01:03:47,171
I mean I spend commissary,
gas to get there, phone calls.
1139
01:03:47,301 --> 01:03:50,957
It costs $3 a phone call,
andhe calls me three times a day.
1140
01:03:51,088 --> 01:03:52,959
So it's a lot of money.
1141
01:03:53,090 --> 01:03:54,613
And then I get on
Facebook and I'll
1142
01:03:54,743 --> 01:03:58,443
see my friends start
familiesand go off to college,
1143
01:03:58,573 --> 01:04:03,709
move to California, and
me being kind of stuck.
1144
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:05,730
This is definitely notthe
life that I expected I
1145
01:04:05,754 --> 01:04:07,887
would have when I was littler.
1146
01:04:57,589 --> 01:05:00,418
Thank you.
1147
01:05:00,548 --> 01:05:01,288
Thank you.
1148
01:05:01,419 --> 01:05:03,595
Thank you.
1149
01:05:03,725 --> 01:05:06,728
Go ahead.
1150
01:05:06,859 --> 01:05:07,859
Oh my god.
1151
01:05:11,951 --> 01:05:14,519
Oh my goodness.
1152
01:05:14,649 --> 01:05:16,042
They're going to be so happy.
1153
01:05:16,173 --> 01:05:21,352
Them boys are going
to be so hysterical.
1154
01:05:21,482 --> 01:05:22,851
Known that
graduation day, though.
1155
01:05:22,875 --> 01:05:23,615
Right?
1156
01:05:23,745 --> 01:05:24,485
I know.
1157
01:05:24,616 --> 01:05:26,270
The same day.
1158
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:27,445
Same day.
1159
01:05:27,575 --> 01:05:29,229
How... yeah.
1160
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:30,360
So exciting.
1161
01:05:33,233 --> 01:05:34,539
Don't think he's here yet.
1162
01:05:34,669 --> 01:05:35,888
I don't see Levi or him.
1163
01:05:38,847 --> 01:05:40,110
The Supreme Court overruled.
1164
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:41,391
The Supreme Court
has overruled our case.
1165
01:05:41,415 --> 01:05:42,697
And he doesn't know
he doesn't know yet.
1166
01:05:42,721 --> 01:05:43,156
He doesn't know.
1167
01:05:43,287 --> 01:05:45,245
Shh.
1168
01:05:45,376 --> 01:05:49,380
Oh my god, I'm gonna pass out.
1169
01:05:49,510 --> 01:05:50,510
So excited.
1170
01:05:50,555 --> 01:05:51,555
So excited.
1171
01:05:54,341 --> 01:05:58,302
I almost feel sick
to my stomach, even.
1172
01:05:58,432 --> 01:05:59,651
This is not real.
1173
01:06:02,871 --> 01:06:03,979
Do you know what this means?
1174
01:06:04,003 --> 01:06:05,352
Oh my gosh.
1175
01:06:05,483 --> 01:06:06,895
We get to have a real wedding.
1176
01:06:06,919 --> 01:06:08,138
Oh my god.
1177
01:06:08,268 --> 01:06:09,748
We get have a real wedding.
1178
01:06:13,795 --> 01:06:14,448
Oh my god, I see him.
1179
01:06:14,579 --> 01:06:15,579
Shh!
1180
01:06:20,019 --> 01:06:21,238
Hi, guys.
1181
01:06:21,368 --> 01:06:22,368
Hug.
1182
01:06:25,155 --> 01:06:26,895
Oh my god, I love you.
1183
01:06:27,026 --> 01:06:29,159
So we gotta talk to you guys.
1184
01:06:29,289 --> 01:06:30,729
The Supreme Court
decision came back.
1185
01:06:30,769 --> 01:06:31,944
All right.
1186
01:06:32,075 --> 01:06:34,512
You guys are no
longerconvicted felony murderers.
1187
01:06:34,642 --> 01:06:35,469
We won!
1188
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:36,731
You're not a murderer.
1189
01:06:40,039 --> 01:06:41,234
I've been waiting
for this so long.
1190
01:06:41,258 --> 01:06:41,998
I don't wanna cry.
1191
01:06:42,128 --> 01:06:43,260
Cry, babe.
1192
01:06:43,390 --> 01:06:44,609
Cry.
1193
01:06:44,739 --> 01:06:46,002
Cry, man.
1194
01:06:46,132 --> 01:06:47,916
You're not a murderer, man.
1195
01:06:48,961 --> 01:06:51,007
Man.
1196
01:06:51,137 --> 01:06:52,399
Congratulations.
1197
01:06:52,530 --> 01:06:53,618
Thank you, man.
1198
01:06:53,748 --> 01:06:54,748
Thank you.
1199
01:06:59,145 --> 01:07:00,385
Get that shit back.
1200
01:07:00,494 --> 01:07:01,365
Man.
1201
01:07:01,495 --> 01:07:02,366
Congratulations.
1202
01:07:02,496 --> 01:07:03,802
Thank you, thank you.
1203
01:07:05,325 --> 01:07:07,327
Just make it through the rain.
1204
01:07:07,458 --> 01:07:15,458
Even though we don't
ever show our pain,
1205
01:07:15,596 --> 01:07:22,908
we try, we try, to make
it through the rain.
1206
01:07:23,039 --> 01:07:31,039
Even though we don't ever showour pain,
we try, we try...
1207
01:07:33,788 --> 01:07:34,920
Blake Layman.
1208
01:07:43,102 --> 01:07:46,105
I love you, Son.
1209
01:07:49,152 --> 01:07:50,675
Congratulations, honey.
1210
01:07:50,805 --> 01:07:51,805
I love you.
1211
01:07:58,509 --> 01:07:59,510
It's a damn good day.
1212
01:08:03,340 --> 01:08:06,082
My mother always said,
1213
01:08:06,212 --> 01:08:09,433
Son, just make it
through the rain.
1214
01:08:09,563 --> 01:08:14,133
Even though we don't ever show...
1215
01:08:14,264 --> 01:08:15,850
The Indiana Supreme Court
1216
01:08:15,874 --> 01:08:18,659
says Blake Layman, Levi Sparks,
and Anthony Sharp did not
1217
01:08:18,790 --> 01:08:22,141
engage in any dangerous,
violent, threatening behavior,
1218
01:08:22,272 --> 01:08:24,032
and nothing about their
behavior was the cause
1219
01:08:24,056 --> 01:08:26,102
of their friend's death.
1220
01:08:26,232 --> 01:08:27,818
- A - judge will resentence,
1221
01:08:27,842 --> 01:08:31,107
Layman, Sharp,
and Sparksfor the burglary conviction.
1222
01:08:31,237 --> 01:08:33,239
The maximum for
that is 20 years.
1223
01:08:33,370 --> 01:08:34,936
But with day-for-day
credit and time
1224
01:08:35,067 --> 01:08:36,938
they've already served
in the last three years,
1225
01:08:37,069 --> 01:08:39,115
they might only have to
do another six years.
1226
01:08:39,245 --> 01:08:41,769
The one name left out
ofthe Supreme Court opinion
1227
01:08:41,900 --> 01:08:43,510
is Jose Quiroz.
1228
01:08:43,641 --> 01:08:45,860
He pleaded guilty before thetrial and,
because of that,
1229
01:08:45,991 --> 01:08:47,601
was not able to appeal.
1230
01:08:47,732 --> 01:08:50,604
He's currently serving
a 45-year sentence.
1231
01:08:50,735 --> 01:08:53,477
But I am told a public
defenderis trying to get him less
1232
01:08:53,607 --> 01:08:56,262
time since he was
16 when it happened.
1233
01:09:01,137 --> 01:09:02,790
I'm so scared, I ain't playing.
1234
01:09:02,921 --> 01:09:04,618
You're scared, or
just anxious and...
1235
01:09:04,749 --> 01:09:05,619
I'm scared.
1236
01:09:05,750 --> 01:09:06,857
...nervous about
what's going to happen?
1237
01:09:06,881 --> 01:09:07,881
Yeah, I'm scared.
1238
01:09:10,711 --> 01:09:11,711
Like, really bad.
1239
01:09:15,194 --> 01:09:16,432
Just don't go and ask
him stupid questions.
1240
01:09:16,456 --> 01:09:18,173
Do you imagine how he's
feeling and how we feel?
1241
01:09:18,197 --> 01:09:22,158
I bet he is, like, a mess.
1242
01:09:22,288 --> 01:09:23,831
At least he got himself
in that situation.
1243
01:09:23,855 --> 01:09:25,117
That's true.
1244
01:09:25,248 --> 01:09:27,032
I gotta go up there,
and I'm like, aah!
1245
01:09:27,163 --> 01:09:28,033
Please don't kill me.
1246
01:09:28,164 --> 01:09:29,271
Oh, you're more
scared about all that.
1247
01:09:29,295 --> 01:09:30,296
The whole court...
1248
01:09:30,427 --> 01:09:32,298
Yeah, like, what if
I... what if I'm the one
1249
01:09:32,429 --> 01:09:33,778
that gives him 20
years in prison
1250
01:09:33,908 --> 01:09:35,519
because of something I say?
1251
01:09:35,649 --> 01:09:37,149
There's not much you
cansay that's going to influence
1252
01:09:37,173 --> 01:09:37,912
the judge's decision.
1253
01:09:38,043 --> 01:09:40,176
You know that.
1254
01:09:40,306 --> 01:09:42,569
Yeah?
1255
01:09:42,700 --> 01:09:45,137
While I'm up there as
a character witness,
1256
01:09:45,268 --> 01:09:49,533
the prosecutor's job is
to lower my character.
1257
01:09:49,663 --> 01:09:51,839
Make it look like
I am a bad person.
1258
01:09:51,970 --> 01:09:53,014
But how can they?
1259
01:09:53,145 --> 01:09:55,103
You work every day.
1260
01:09:55,234 --> 01:09:58,890
I mean, you have been
therefor Blake for three years.
1261
01:09:59,020 --> 01:10:00,848
You've done everything.
1262
01:10:02,023 --> 01:10:03,023
You'll be fine.
1263
01:10:25,656 --> 01:10:27,484
It's gonna be good.
1264
01:10:27,614 --> 01:10:29,007
It's what we've been waiting on.
1265
01:10:29,137 --> 01:10:30,356
She's shaking regardless.
1266
01:10:30,487 --> 01:10:32,358
Yeah, I haven't
ate, slept, nothing.
1267
01:10:37,058 --> 01:10:37,798
All right, everyone.
1268
01:10:37,929 --> 01:10:38,973
We're about to pray.
1269
01:10:39,104 --> 01:10:40,758
So everybody gather.
1270
01:10:40,888 --> 01:10:43,674
Father God,
we come hereagain today for one purpose,
1271
01:10:43,804 --> 01:10:45,980
and that's for justice
for these boys.
1272
01:10:46,111 --> 01:10:48,069
Let them be charged
for what they did.
1273
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:49,264
Lord, be with us all today.
1274
01:10:49,288 --> 01:10:50,463
Give us strength.
1275
01:10:50,594 --> 01:10:52,683
Give these boys guidance
when they come home.
1276
01:10:52,813 --> 01:10:53,553
Amen.
1277
01:10:53,684 --> 01:10:54,684
Amen.
1278
01:10:57,253 --> 01:10:58,776
I hope he comes home.
1279
01:10:58,906 --> 01:11:00,212
Time served.
1280
01:11:00,343 --> 01:11:03,737
But even if he has to do
acouple more years, we've won.
1281
01:11:03,868 --> 01:11:05,086
This is what we needed.
1282
01:11:05,217 --> 01:11:08,176
We've got him to the
burglarycharge that he deserves.
1283
01:11:08,307 --> 01:11:09,961
So even if the worse
comes to worse,
1284
01:11:10,091 --> 01:11:10,962
it's just a couple more years.
1285
01:11:11,092 --> 01:11:12,398
And we're ready for that.
1286
01:11:59,967 --> 01:12:01,578
What were you feeling
going into this?
1287
01:12:01,708 --> 01:12:02,492
Nervous.
1288
01:12:02,622 --> 01:12:04,145
Um, I didn't know
what to expect.
1289
01:12:04,276 --> 01:12:05,930
I was expecting the worst.
1290
01:12:06,060 --> 01:12:08,672
I was hoping there was no
waythe judge would max him out.
1291
01:12:08,802 --> 01:12:10,563
But we got justice today,
and that's what we wanted,
1292
01:12:10,587 --> 01:12:11,457
and that's the way we've been.
1293
01:12:11,588 --> 01:12:13,154
10-year sentence?
1294
01:12:13,285 --> 01:12:15,156
Can't ask for nothing better.
1295
01:12:15,287 --> 01:12:16,960
He's got a year and a
half time cut after he
1296
01:12:16,984 --> 01:12:18,769
finishes the PLUS program.
1297
01:12:18,899 --> 01:12:22,120
So we're looking at it maybethree months,
he'll be free.
1298
01:12:22,250 --> 01:12:22,729
Yeah. - Three months?
1299
01:12:22,860 --> 01:12:23,904
Yes.
1300
01:12:24,035 --> 01:12:24,905
Yes.
1301
01:12:25,036 --> 01:12:25,776
Thank you.
1302
01:12:25,906 --> 01:12:29,083
Oh, Son!
1303
01:12:29,214 --> 01:12:31,738
Did you schedule
a visit for today?
1304
01:12:54,500 --> 01:12:55,240
Oh my goodness.
1305
01:12:55,371 --> 01:12:57,503
I'm just... I'm, like, sweating.
1306
01:12:57,634 --> 01:12:59,418
I'm just so anxious.
1307
01:13:02,682 --> 01:13:04,641
Been waiting on this
day for a long time.
1308
01:13:08,601 --> 01:13:10,081
All right.
1309
01:13:10,211 --> 01:13:12,475
I think we're good.
1310
01:13:12,605 --> 01:13:14,125
Trying to make sure
everything's ready.
1311
01:13:26,967 --> 01:13:27,967
OK.
1312
01:13:31,407 --> 01:13:34,018
I know, boy.
1313
01:13:34,148 --> 01:13:35,280
You anxious, too?
1314
01:13:35,411 --> 01:13:38,457
Are you gonna see Blakey?
1315
01:13:38,588 --> 01:13:40,154
Baby bird.
1316
01:13:40,285 --> 01:13:42,940
He's flying free now.
1317
01:13:43,070 --> 01:13:44,115
It's finally ending.
1318
01:13:44,245 --> 01:13:45,245
It's almost over.
1319
01:14:21,718 --> 01:14:22,798
I'm out of here, JP.
1320
01:14:22,849 --> 01:14:23,849
Stay out of trouble, man.
1321
01:14:39,344 --> 01:14:39,779
All right, hillbilly.
1322
01:14:39,910 --> 01:14:41,433
Be good.
1323
01:14:41,564 --> 01:14:42,845
What'd you say,
? What'd you say?
1324
01:14:42,869 --> 01:14:43,869
You need a hug?
1325
01:14:47,787 --> 01:14:48,571
All right, All right, guys.
1326
01:14:48,701 --> 01:14:50,442
Be cool, y'all.
1327
01:14:50,573 --> 01:14:51,573
You'll hear from me soon.
1328
01:15:07,154 --> 01:15:08,373
All right, Blake.
1329
01:15:08,504 --> 01:15:09,505
All right,
1330
01:15:09,635 --> 01:15:10,201
- Thank you, brother.
- Yup.
1331
01:15:10,331 --> 01:15:11,331
Be cool.
1332
01:15:12,899 --> 01:15:13,639
Yeah, I know.
1333
01:15:13,770 --> 01:15:14,770
I ain't coming back.
1334
01:15:28,698 --> 01:15:32,049
It's been 3 and 1/2
years, you know?
1335
01:15:32,179 --> 01:15:34,181
I just don't know
what to expect.
1336
01:15:34,312 --> 01:15:37,620
Kind of nervous, you know?
1337
01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:38,901
When I walk out
those gates today,
1338
01:15:38,925 --> 01:15:41,145
the entire Elkhart Four...
1339
01:15:41,275 --> 01:15:42,383
I want to put that behind me.
1340
01:15:42,407 --> 01:15:43,800
I want to be Blake.
1341
01:15:43,930 --> 01:15:45,410
I don't wanna be the
Elkhart Four kid.
1342
01:15:49,022 --> 01:15:50,328
Blake!
1343
01:15:50,458 --> 01:15:51,458
Blake!
1344
01:16:08,259 --> 01:16:10,304
It's an overwhelming
sense of love,
1345
01:16:10,435 --> 01:16:12,959
you know,
just to see everyonetie together like that,
1346
01:16:13,090 --> 01:16:14,787
and just come together
for that cause.
1347
01:16:14,918 --> 01:16:15,918
For me.
1348
01:16:21,402 --> 01:16:23,729
I think the only real way to
saythank you for all that support
1349
01:16:23,753 --> 01:16:26,277
and love is to do right now.
1350
01:16:26,407 --> 01:16:31,717
Is to get out and do the
rightthing and not disappoint.
1351
01:16:31,848 --> 01:16:33,850
I can stand up
and say thank you,
1352
01:16:33,980 --> 01:16:36,417
but actions speak
louder than words.
1353
01:16:36,548 --> 01:16:39,072
And for them to see me do good,
that would be the ultimate
1354
01:16:39,203 --> 01:16:40,203
thank you to all of them.
1355
01:16:48,299 --> 01:16:49,169
Here you go.
1356
01:16:49,300 --> 01:16:52,172
Thank you.
1357
01:17:21,593 --> 01:17:23,116
- Name?
- Layman.
1358
01:17:23,247 --> 01:17:23,987
DOC?
1359
01:17:24,117 --> 01:17:25,118
242576.
1360
01:17:25,249 --> 01:17:26,076
Awesome. Thank you, sir.
1361
01:17:26,206 --> 01:17:27,270
- Thank you.
- Good luck to you.
1362
01:17:27,294 --> 01:17:28,034
Thank you.
1363
01:17:28,165 --> 01:17:28,992
You're going places.
1364
01:17:29,122 --> 01:17:30,122
Thank you, man.
1365
01:17:34,475 --> 01:17:35,694
Justice for Blake!
1366
01:17:46,052 --> 01:17:48,533
Look at that
good-looking boy, wow!
1367
01:17:55,453 --> 01:17:57,934
Hey, open them
gates for that guy.
1368
01:17:58,064 --> 01:17:59,283
You're free, Blake!
1369
01:17:59,413 --> 01:18:00,545
Yes!
1370
01:18:00,676 --> 01:18:03,069
You're free!
1371
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:05,202
Yeah!
1372
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:13,776
Oh my god, you're out!
1373
01:18:26,789 --> 01:18:27,920
Good to see you, baby.
1374
01:18:32,098 --> 01:18:33,378
Your grandma wants a hug.
1375
01:18:43,066 --> 01:18:43,806
He looks so good.
1376
01:18:43,936 --> 01:18:45,068
You look so good.
1377
01:18:48,636 --> 01:18:49,768
I want in.
1378
01:18:49,899 --> 01:18:51,030
I want in!
1379
01:18:51,161 --> 01:18:52,161
I want some!
1380
01:19:01,021 --> 01:19:04,021
