0:00 [Music] all right I'm going to tell you a little story about something that happened in Virginia and then you guys tell me if you think what he did really deserves this 100e sentence that he received a 100 yeah 100 years well what if he lives beyond a 100 though he's going to get jokes on us then so you got sentenced at age zero or what yeah he might be I know 125 I think he's in his his late 20s or something see 128 all right so this is in Virginia there's a guy his name is bazin and he works at the local Target we covered this story before but we didn't get this far in it because now we see that there's a 100e sentence but let me refresh your memory this is in

0:50 Virginia he found somebody had eaten his lunch that he put in the fridge at Target uh and so after he found out he he did you know he did some investigating realized it was the janitor that had like taken his lunch and ate it so then he went and bought a hammer and two knives and he spent the day the rest of the day training for the murder which is what he said what the ████ and then the next morning he he came a hammer and two knives hammer and two knives yeah he only has two hands though I know so then the next morning one case one break basically on Joe's table right here but this is an AC yeah how do how was done yeah yeah this wasn't even prepped you guys this is just oh that's how you was right

1:41 yeah there you go that's the kill yeah the kill stab right there you keep it in the body that's why oh that's good keep the stab in the body and you pull the second one oh but if but if I get stabbed I'm just going to use it against them yeah I don't think the janitor had the skills to do what you just did so um that morning he arrives really early to work and he waits in the parking lot the janitor arrives and Basin stabs him to death he immediately confessed to the crime and he plad guilty um and at the first hearing he told the prosecutors that if they don't give him the maximum sentence he will definitely kill or hurt other people that's tight he's pretty honest this guy is ████ cuckoo this guy's pretty straight up with what he he's a straight shooter this guy had a goal he carried

2:31 up so it was mainly because of that sentiment that he had there at the very end that the they decided to give him a 100e sent I think they should listen to him cuz that's the max yeah lock him up for life why don't they just give him the death penalty uh he's 25 I wonder what his lunch was bro can he get out like half time with good behavior so that make 75 yeah it says that it's 30 years suspended so he has to serve 70 of the years so he'll be a 95 he'll be 95 and he'll get out and try and kill somebody El here he comes watch out he's 95 like if you knew if you knew guaranteed that you put this dude back on Street he's guaranteed going to kill again shouldn't you just off him I would just say don't steal his lunch that's his trigger you guys before

3:21 that did he have any other priors yeah what if someone steals his lunch in jail he's going to kill that ████ that's what I'm saying like serious question like if you knew for a fact wouldn't it be wouldn't you just off him but doesn't it or just give him life like no cuz he has to be killed yeah but then like we're just paying to like keep this dude alive for guaranteed the rest of his life what is this like 40 G's a year per inmate or something and it's gu he said I guarantee we'll do this again if I'm out but what if he's inside and he's like you know what I'm going to change I'm not going to kill anybody stuff like that maybe he he could be going through something he's still 25 he changes his mind Wally's in that's nice you got to change your mind once you say ████ like that that's it he's like I didn't mean that I was trying to see if you guys are doing maybe he's just in his rebellious

4:11 stage you guys you ever I'm just trying to play de with the I'm saying somebody steals your lunch so you ████ practice murdering somebody you wait for the next day in the parking lot like there's your Premed yeah it's so far don't you think someone taking your lunch is very personal not for a crime of passion where I have to practice murdering somebody with three weap it is personal though what what if you had a surf and turf in your for lunch o Lobster in the fridge from where from like you know from the Disneyland Hotel okay some what if it was a very good lunch burrito it was like one of your favorite lunches you looking for all day you're 25 years old you've been stocking boxes all day you're a tired boy and then you go for lunch and it's it's empty it's gone I'll be very very upset and I'll confront the person verbally it doesn't say that it was a continual problem it's just that it happened that day one and

5:01 done dude yeah maybe he just snapped but there's like that's but even then with the snap like that's not like crime of passion in the moment find out run up to him and just like bash his head it's premeditate Premed so premeditated all the way to the point where he's going to be like I did it lock Me Up Maximum sentence like even that is like so B yeah don't give him what he wants I agree with this I wonder if it was like if I was a Jer right and if I knew um that he was going to kill me i' I'd ask as the janitor myself is that sandwich Worth Dying For and it might have tasted really good cuz so you think the janitor knew he was going to die for this sandwich yeah I think it was a really good sandwich Joe saying it's the janitor janitor should have never took the sandwich in the beginning any that's ████ up yeah why would you but if it's someone else's food and you know it's not yours why would you take it what if what if what if he was just the janitor

5:52 was bullying this kid he goes hey you brought the tuna sandwich again today oh man that was so good all right and then he's like I told you Bob never to take my sandwich again and then he snapped it was like Milton dude that could have been the situation do they look like to be fair guys he already paid the price that's bad on the left that's a janitor on the right do they look like could be bullying I mean the guy on the right looks like Tiger King a little bit like a janitor T version of Tiger King and then the guy on the left do some ████ to him on the left yeah it does look like that what if the guy on the left is like I don't know he looks Ethiopian right so he had the fire ass like bread like that inera bread or whatever and that janitor dude was like what the ████ I never had anything like this before oh dude and then so now he's

6:43 like oh ████ I can't wait though if it wasn't like that but the he saw the janitor eating and the janitor goes and puts in the trash come on that would make you more murderous right not only did you not eat this ████ but you wasted my lunch I will say that the Bost in photo that dude looks like he's got murder in his eyes yeah it looks like no one's home you know like you look at his eyes it looks like he has dead eyes you know maybe it's just he he did do something pretty crazy so maybe that's like everyone looks like that after they did it that's true I feel like I agree with you don't give him what he wants like he wants a maximum sentence maybe he just like have a hard life and he's like you know what man I'm sick of ████ trying to work this job trying to make ends meet and ████ like that you know what if I go to jail they'll just take care of me for the rest of my life Reas to kill him so what would you give him death you said I'm just asking the

7:34 question I'm you know what I mean it's likeed lost cause just kill him yeah if it's guaranteed it's not about reforming him and putting him back on the streets he's like saying he will do it is it not uh better punishment and justification our morality our Morality In America is based on Christianity so that's why they don't kill so easily anymore yeah I'm not even saying I'm capable of voting for the death p penalty for him I'm just wondering like is that sentence a right sentence in general yes you know what I mean or maybe you make him run across the ████ driving range one time when everyone's golfing and everyone aims for him like he's a golf C what would you make what would you have the sentence if I had to see this is why I'm not a Jud if you had to if you had to well number one I think it's always hard to like yeah like B was

8:24 saying like we give him what he wants you know what I mean like is that a certain type of Justice like if he's like you better give me the maximum sense otherwise I'm going to kill you be like um we can't allow that cuz they just he just yeah demanded and you met his demand it's like ████ it's not like a terrorist yeah you know so I I would say maybe give him the choice even of being like all right well you can either do the death penalty or what's what's worse than that I feel like it was deserved cuz that janitor should have never ate his ████ beef tibs dude yeah says a guy with two knives right across his face it is a little funny that like there are people that have been murdered for like no reason and those dudes don't have even close to the sentence yeah it's really interesting she had a little

9:14 bit of a reason maybe you lock them up maybe you lock them up in a room full of skunks and then there's a gun inside too so it's his choice there's only one bullet in that gun so he won't be able to kill enough skunks to kill the smell he's like him in a psychiatric freaking facility instead of a prison how do they have those anymore what I don't understand is he's like Al kill again and it's like why you already had your revenge yeah unless you had a ton of sandwiches in different fridges around the world he's not the first one that stole maybe he just needed a reason he's always been this kind of psychotic dude needed a reason got the reason did it and then got the taste for it and was like it I'm for sure doing that again you know if if I was the judge I'd say sentence him to make a sandwich shop because it's so good it's to die for

10:05 that's just good Brandon okay here's where I'm coming with it this is now I'm I'm starting to rationalize I think at the end of the day if you know somebody else uh or if somebody is capable of killing again you know they're going to do it again it's guaranteed yeah then I'm like okay yeah death penalty well they don't do that in California they just let them go to ████ up more people well that's because you can't choose your own euthanization in any form here in the state right what state is that in Virginia dude virgia that that fol should die by tobacco Yeah by cigarettes because the other thing is like whether it be like take him to a psychiatric ward or like he reforms in 50 years you know what I mean and then gets back out in the public the second he does it one more time the whole system ████ up yeah and we spent 50 years of tax dollars to keep him in jail

10:55 and keep them alive I think's right I think it is easier for someone obviously on that kill somebody want to obviously do it again like once you open those doors yo let him die yeah if if if somebody K if he killed somebody for stealing a sandwich but he didn't say I'm guaranteed going to do it again I'm not on this page at all hey Ryan can you check the stats if anyone's ever just killed one person can you just Che that do they usually stop at one [Music] person
