"Across America. Fresno, California will see plenty of sun with a high of 105. That's the nation's weather. Matt Rindy. I'm John Trout. It's 16 past. This is America in the Morning. There are now more allegations beyond football of hazing within Northwestern University's baseball and football programs. Ed Donahue reports. But today I'm proud to come forward amongst my brave teammates here today to let the truth be known. The truth that has happened for decades. We hope that with our public efforts that we will empower those affected by physical, emotional and sexual abuse to share their stories. And we're letting you know that we're in this culture and we support you. There have been growing complaints of hazing within the school's football program. This is deplorable, appalling but it is not surprising. first The lawsuit has been filed against now fired football coach Pat Fitzgerald at Northwestern. More are expected to follow. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump and other attorneys are representing about 15 athletes. arrival Upon to campus we were thrown into a culture where physical, emotional and emotional abuse was normalized. No teammate I knew liked hazing. We were all no victims matter what our role was at the time. The culture was so that we felt we had to go with it to survive, to be respected and to earn the trust within the football program. Former Northwestern quarterback Lloyd Yates. graphic The sexually intense behavior was well known throughout the program. We were physically and emotionally beaten down and some players have Fitzgerald has maintained he had no knowledge of the hazing. Unfortunately for us we were incoming freshmen so we had no reference point to know if this was just a college football just thing a or uniquely Northwestern thing. I'm Ed Donohue. New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu announced he will not run for reelection in 2024. The Republican made the announcement in an email to supporters saying that public service should never be a career.

Larry and Tribune Editor Stephanie Finucane Discuss Systemic Racism
"Good morning, mister elder. Morning. Stephanie phonon, I'm the opinion editor at the tribune in San Luis Obispo. And I'm going to return to the topic of systemic racism. On your website, you say it's outrageous that America is being demonized a systemically racist. Yeah, that seems to fly in the face of what we see around us and our reporting. For example, tab Webber just completed a series on redlining in Fresno and how it prevented black Asian and Latino people from buying property and preferred areas. And that has ramifications to this day. A national survey just ranked west Fresno is one of the worst places in the nation for a black person to live. And it was the only place in the west to receive such a bad ranking. How do you respond to that? Well, I'm back in 1991. There was a black Harvard sociologist named Orlando Patterson. He's still there. 1991. And he said, America, despite its flaws, is the least racist majority society in the world provides more opportunities for blacks than any other country in the world, including all of those of Africa. 1997, Time Magazine, CNN, time teamed up, you'll study a black teens and white teams. And they asked them both were the racism was a major problem in America. Again, this is 1997. And both of them said, yes. But then they did something that I rarely seen, any study do. They ask black teens if racism was a big problem, a small problem or no problem in your own daily life. 89% of black teens called racism a small problem or no problem in their own daily life. In fact, more black teens than white team said, failure to take advantage of available opportunities is a bigger problem than racism. I want to repeat that. More black teens and white teens said, and this is pretty much verbatim. Fail I want you to take advantage of available opportunities is a bigger problem than racism in

'Smash and Grab,' a Product of Moral Decay
"The smash and grab craze happening across America. It's just another sign of moral decay. What we're seeing happening all across the country and this really started during Floyd palooza and it's continuing. Is hundreds if not thousands of criminals that go into stores, grab whatever they want and then leave. Now, of course, in San Francisco, they will not prosecute theft unless it's over a certain dollar when I think the dollar amounts like $950. But cut 50, here's a small business owner in Democrat run Oakland, California, saying he might just shut down his business because he says, I can't take this many break ins, go to cut 40. I don't know how many more incidents like this. We can take to keep our doors open. One of the owners of renegade running Victor Diaz is contemplating keeping his doors open for business in Oakland after they were most recently shattered late Sunday Night. And cut 5 a security guard was killed over the weekend. You probably didn't hear about this. As these criminals, these thugs in these vigilantes are just going in and taking whatever they want. This is happening all across the country, by the way. And what happens is a group of 30 or 40 criminals show up to a store and they just flood it and they take what they want and no one dares stop them. Play cut 5. So these gangs of smash and grab thieves raising alarms across the nation, a couple of shops getting hit over the holiday weekend in Fresno, California. It's not just California where it's going on. The organized looting now spreading other parts of the country as well. Also, when I mentioned Kevin ishida, he was a Bay Area security guard who was killed over the weekend during one of these smash and grab deals. So who benefits from this type of anarchy? Remember, that's the most important question that you can ask with any of these things. When things start to unravel and they don't make sense, you need to ask yourself the question who benefits? Well, one more piece of sound cut 9, Fox News report on a Home Depot that was looted for crowbars and mallets. Don't wear everybody. They just want the crowbars because they're going to be building swing sets. That's right. Play cut 9. A group of about 15 to 20 suspects stormed a Home Depot store in Lakewood and stole crowbars, mallets, and sledgehammers before jumping in a bunch of getaway vehicles. Some now fear what those sleeves might plan on doing with those tools. These robberies are leaving many holiday shoppers on edge.

Fresno County Health Officials Seeing an Increase of Covid Cases
"With new covid cases growing across the country, Fresno County health officials say they're noticing a surge in cases and younger populations, according to the data shared by the Health Department. Younger age groups are driving this surge. Now, If we look back to January of this year, when Covid 19 cases were surging people 65 older made up a big chunk of those early cases. Nearly 25%. Now they make up less than 15%. But 18 and younger category has done the opposite. They were at about 15% back in January. Now they make up nearly 20%. This is concerning because the under 18 population is not all eligible to be vaccinated. And so their only protection is the people around them. The Fresno County Department of Public Health is urging people to mask up if you're not vaccinated, the rules really haven't changed. That's Fox 26 news reporter. Shelby brought show,

Just leave a trial breadcrumbs. That's what i'm saying. All right let's wrap this up so like what did we learn here. I mean learn anything. Have we come any closer to the truth. I mean i don't really know. I'm not a huge conspiracy theory person but this piece is definitely weird. I guess if. I had to make some sort of decision on what happened. I would say it's a little bit of both. I think john laying may have been living with mental illness. He also may have been watched or harassed by the cops to some degree and maybe because he might have had mental illness It could have pushed him over the edge and led him to self harm himself. I don't know for certain. But if i had to make a guess i'm gonna go with that. Maybe also he didn't intend to kill himself. Hence the superficial stab wounds and you know. He also allegedly turned off the security cameras inside of his home so maybe he wanted to frame the fresno police department and make it look like they try to attack him somehow inside his house on fire but things just got out of control with the fire and he ended up succumbing to the smoke inhalation and his death was an accident. Didn't mean for it to go. That far i think you just created a new conspiracy theories possibly. I didn't see anyone mentioned that. No me neither. But i'm sure we. I mean god. There's so much out there. Someone could've come up with that and we just may not have come across it for sure somebody right now. Who's like on right.

They are the holders of this software and the fact that there's no transparency as to the coding their their system like they're the rating system to all that stuff that is horrifying and that should never be something that falls into the hands of any law enforcement official or government or anything like oh that freaks me out but yeah i mean there's no logical reason that license plate scanner should have access to anything but police records actually license. Plate scanners don't access police records if you run someone's licensed play. It doesn't show any of your history except for like vehicle information. So let's say you had a like a murder warrant or your car was us in a child abduction case or something like that then. An investigator can put a warrant into the system. And attach it to your car. But i believe just a regular ron of a car. Only shows registration information Okay thank you. Don't quote me on that. But i won't i won't but like you should. Yeah i get it like should've should've karbi reported stolen or maybe the cops are responding to a bolo beyond the lookout alert. I can see but the whole wording. Mass shootings and terrorism argument is total bullshit. Theoretically we have government agencies that are way more equipped for that kind of stuff..

"Evidence proving this one way or another But i just wanted to come back briefly to the whole statement. That was initially made about john lang stabbing himself in the back in why that was retracted. And why that evidence was not found in the final autopsy report and whether or not it would have been possible so knowing me i probably have a knife out for some other reason trip and fall on it and kill myself by stabbing myself on the back of that way because i'm clumsy as fuck. I'm tackle you would trip and fall and stab yourself in the back trust me. I'm sure i can figure it out i've done. I've hurt myself in ways as remember earlier. Mindy when i said i had some very scary big brother shit that i found i do i do. Actually what is that about right so we are going to cover this part now so while researching this case i came across this post on reddit from someone who. I'm not sure if they would want us to use their handle or not. So i'm not going to say their name. But they said i live in fresno and have followed laying story since before. This all happened. He was first brought to the spotlight when he caught fresno pd targeting poor neighborhoods illegally. They got their new license plate. Scanners which linked to their main database which also linked to social media and many other things. This new system was widely reported on basically it spit out a threat score based on a number of official and unofficial sources of information. What they do is scan the parking lots of low income neighborhood markets and when a high thrust score came up they'd randomly pull that person over when they left the parking lot in badger them to search the car. This is akin to stopping a person on the street and demanding. They empty their pockets. It's constitutional laying reported on this from his blog in the months leading up to his suicide when he died. I followed up on the story closely. It was it was a close to home conspiracy theory that piqued my interest. So this person actually believes that lane killed himself. I want to that link that the person posted to see what this technology was that the police were using. And if there is any truth any of this so the link was to an article from january tenth two thousand sixteen from the washington post in it was written by justin juvenile the links also going to be in our episode description. If you wanna read it. I'm not going to cover everything. It was a pretty long article. But it's definitely worth a read. But some of the highlights are as follows as a national debate has played out over mass surveillance by the national security agency. An essay a new generation of technology. Such as the beware software being used and fresno has given local law enforcement officers unprecedented power to peer into the lives of citizens. Police officials say such tools can provide critical information that can help uncover terrorists or thwart mass shootings ensure the safety of others.

So let's talk about that. There are seventeen surveillance videos on his youtube page. His channel is called laying marine marine as in the branch military. That he belonged to his youtube. Page is still up so you can go check it out for yourself and watch all these videos link is going to be in the show notes as well so all videos were recorded with his front home security camera. The first video was posted on may twentieth of two thousand. Fifteen and the last video is dated january sixteenth of thousand sixteen just four days prior to his death. Lanes theory is that since he was criticizing the fresno police on the local news site the fresno bee they were able to track his ip address and find out where he's lived mini explained all that previously so he had cameras set up to monitor his house to see. I'm not really sure if he put up the cameras just to see if the police were surveying him or if he had these cameras up for a while but the videos in start appearing on youtube until twenty fifteen and he had issues going on with the police since like two thousand nine. Is that right many. At least that we know of and honestly like there were it. Sounds like there were quite a few cameras. So i don't know because he had indoor and outdoor cameras right. So yeah yeah so. Let's talk about a few of the videos that he posted. Because i definitely have questioned. Why do too yeah on these videos so this is from.

The owner of this phone number is a member of the fresno sheriff's office and just a quick description. And all you see in the video is at the start of it. There's a truck that pulls up actually really more in front of his neighbors house like they're driving but they kinda pull over to the side for a bit and then pull back into traffic and drive off and then towards the end of the video you see a what looks like a similar truck to simply driving by the house.

Ecuadorian reports from Fresno. The history being made by Deb Holland's nomination was hailed by all on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, even those who are skeptical of her policy views The special nature of the moment was evident as the New Mexico congresswoman introduced herself to the committee and the nation.
