So, it's a story about this judge u named Judge Mullins and then uh a the police chief of that or the sheriff of that town uh his name is Mickey Stein. So, it's a small rural town in Kentucky. It's called Whitesburg. >> Whitesburg. >> Yeah. Which is hilarious. >> Are we allowed to go there? Kind of down the way. Um, so there was this racket that was being run where basically when women got

0:50 in trouble and had to go to holding or go through the jail, u the judge that had sentenced them would set up sex parties where they would be forced to like have sex with his friends and and other people and they would just basically make these orgies and the women were forced to participate. and uh as a threat if they didn't agree >> he was going to send uh child protective services to take their kids away basically. >> Oh my god. >> That's a crazy >> that is some up evil. >> What kind of town is this? >> Yeah. Horrible. And then so the women of the um the women that finally like got out of it when they were interviewed they were like yeah they couldn't really tell anybody because everyone in town I guess knew and was part of it. >> Oh it's one of those towns. Yeah, it was one of those towns where Yeah, she was like, "Yeah, all the all the officials

1:40 like every they're all swingers and they all go to this so there's no one to really tell. Like the cops are there, too." >> That's like what's that recent movie? >> Roadhouse. >> Backdraft. Oh, sorry. What? >> Roadhouse. >> Right. Like the whole town is under the influence of like some rich people. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He owns the town. >> Yeah. And there's like there's so many like little towns like that. >> Why did she take a Greyhound bus to nowhere? >> I I don't know. I think she was scared. Oh, >> well, she probably has kids and if the kids are probably like, >> "You could go." >> They got leverage. They probably have leverage over the kids somehow. >> Yeah, I think everyone has such varied reasons why they don't leave where they're from. >> That's true. Cuz it's like, "Hey, dude, that dude's beating you up. Why don't you leave?" And then and then she doesn't. And then everyone blames her and be like, "Yeah, you should have left, b████." >> But it's like she doesn't. And then >> probably what it's happening right now. >> That's the synopsis of Backdraft.

2:30 >> You just named the plot of Backdraft. And then uh >> have you guys actually been into the backdraft at Universal Studio? >> It's hot. >> That's why you can't leave. >> It is so hot. Like I remember feeling the fire go to my face and I'm just like >> figurative. >> Yeah. >> Oh ████ >> It's very hot. That's >> That's not backdraft. That's forward draft. >> Oh my goodness. Um this sounds like it's going to be a crazy Netflix documentary. I'll say that. >> It will be because the story gets even weirder. >> Oh no. Continue, please. So, um, so it turns out one day the judge was having lunch with the sheriff and, um, >> that should be illegal. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Colluting, dude. >> Yeah. >> They're like, "Which girl do you want to do next?" >> Pretty much. >> And then hours later, they're in the judge's office together and the sheriff ends up shooting the judge.

3:21 >> Oh, tight. >> And then as the judge is like on the ground, the sheriff just keeps looking. >> Oh, that's some gangster ████ >> And then uh, >> but why? >> Yeah. They don't really know yet exactly why because it hasn't even got a trial yet. >> They both fell in love with the same chick. >> He had a he had a nightmare. God came to him, told him he had to write his wrongs and he had to start with the ████ head of the snake. >> Whoa, that's deep. And the sheriff apparently uh so I guess when they were in the office, the sheriff was trying to call his daughter and I maybe he wasn't getting service or something, so he asked to use the judge's phone. So he dialed his daughter's number and it was saved, >> bro. >> Oh ████ >> I heard about this feeling he had to do with his daughter. >> I didn't know this story was that ████ deep. >> Yeah, bro. >> So the judge was >> He found out the judge dealing his daughter. >> I don't know. They don't know. But then

4:11 there was >> that was the headline. That was >> He believed that the judge might have been conspiring to kidnap his daughter or something. >> Sounds like it. >> This is some dark ████ >> Dark as ████ >> What kind of town is this? Whitesburg dog. >> That's crazy. >> Whites get together, dude. They do some wild ████ bro. >> Sheriff of ████ Daddler, too. >> Oh, what's that? >> He's a orgy man. >> He was apparently I don't know if he >> takes the ████ ████ >> I can't remember if he was part of that, but um >> I'm sure probably was, but yeah, I hope there's one good guy. >> Oh my god. >> No, there's no good guys in Whitesburg. >> Oh, we're going to watch him shoot him. >> I don't know. I haven't seen this yet. >> Is that Who are those guys? Put it louder. >> What's up with all those black images in back there? >> He's like, "You been talking to my daughter?" >> I did see this.

5:01 >> You talking to my daughter? >> I don't know. I I I promise to help her with her algebra. >> Damn. >> Listen, Skeer. It's just It's just an algebra problem she's had problems with. And I'm just trying to tell her that A plus B equals C. >> Lost. You just locked it. >> And I tell you what, lock it, brother. I don't care. I got a tutor for algebra. You better not be talking to my daughter, baby. That's ████ I got a Chinese tutor on on virtual on virtual Zoom. >> Virtual Zoom. >> I'm telling you, skater, there was nothing going on. >> Oh my god. >> Bastard. His office. Damn, dude. Well, >> quality. A square + B square= C square,

5:51 ████ >> That's what happened. >> Yeah. Isn't that a wild ass pythagor the dude? >> That's the That's the judge. That's the sheriff. >> Damn. >> Wait, the one on the left is a judge. >> Yeah, that's the judge. >> That is a face, man. That's crazy cuz you like they just don't look sinister to me. That guy don't look sinister. >> Pedophile eyes, man. >> Yeah, look at him. >> He got nice eyes. >> He look nice, bro. That ████ deserved to get shot. See, that's what happens when you do crazy ████ like that. You get a >> Isn't that crazy to be to be a judge and running a racket like that? That's freaking >> But a racket with the sheriff. That's like >> Yeah, >> that's so tough. The sheriff can basically arrest anybody for some ████ >> Bring them in. The judge will convict them on some ████ >> Yeah, but if there he's the only judge in town, then he's going to arrest him and then the judge is going to go not

6:42 guilty >> for himself. They're in it together. >> That's the craziest dilemma is when you find out someone like like let's say right obviously you want to just kill him, but then you're like if I kill him I go in jail and then my kid has is fatherless for life. >> Yeah. >> What do I do? >> What if his kid's like 25? >> What do you guys do? >> Oh, what if his kids like an adult? >> You got to find a way to >> I don't think it matters cuz you're like like the the ████ assault's so bad. You're like, if you kill them, then you're out of your kid's life for the rest of your kid's life. It doesn't matter if they're five or 25. >> Yeah. >> Like, do you want to see your kid? >> You try to find a way to do it without being caught. >> That would be ideal. That'd be ideal. But if it's like in the moment like that, you don't have time to plan. Like, you find it like right then and there. >> That's when the impulse control, right?

7:32 Is like you have to really be like >> you're like, "F███, >> I have to I have to scheme." >> It's the impulse control. >> I think at that point that that dude seeing red, >> but as you scheming, that guy's scheming. I don't think there's a scheme. I think there's just ████ this fool. >> But then like what you're saying, >> but then now he's ████ You got to see his daughter. >> I don't think he has a time to think I'mma go to jail. I think it's just ████ you. I hate you. >> No, you're saying how would you do it? >> Yeah, that's what I'm saying now. >> I would try to pretend like it's all >> like Joe, how would you do it? I think that's the dilemma that all dads cuz like with Kane Velasquez, right? Same ████ Now he was in jail. Now he's like he's there's no one protecting his kid. I don't know if I'd act >> impulsively like him or if I would plot. That's the scary part. I just think it's I think it's near impossible unless you wait a really long time. >> Is crime of passion better than a

8:22 premeditated murder though? >> Oh yeah, >> premeditated is is you could go to jail for life. >> So >> it's if it's proven. >> So that's the thing, right? Like >> crime of passion, it's more uh what do you call it? Like there, you know that there's a degrees, >> but there is there is cases of people like getting assaulted in their family and people get revenge on those people and they do get off. There's a story about those two kids in like El Paso or something, >> right? >> Where their stepfather like molested their their sister and they pulled up to their house and ████ killed him. >> And then >> they were minors, >> I think. >> Yeah, they were teenagers. They beat they beat their uncle to death. >> That's true. It's like you could that's an easier that's an easier sentence if you're minors and you're >> like not if you're adult killing another adult. >> I don't know. >> Was that cop involved in that order? >> I don't know. They don't know exactly >> cuz that could be a thing. He could be involved and he doesn't want his daughter to ever >> cuz he knows.

9:12 >> Yeah. He knows what they do. >> I mean the the the women in the in the in the lockup said that everyone's involved. They said that >> and they said that they ran they turned the lock up basically into a brothel. >> Holy ████ bro. >> So they're just waiting for girls to get in trouble. >> Yeah. or they or who knows, maybe they're not even in trouble. They just like >> picking them up. >> Yeah. >> Who's going to trust them? >> But yeah, I still think like if that happened, like in your scenario that you're talking about, >> I think it's really ████ near impossible to get revenge clean. >> Yeah. >> Because you're just too connected. Like you're going to be investigated no matter what. It's like it's like it's like when you you're basically might as well be the husband. You know what I mean? Like they look at you first. They're going to go, "Oh, who has it out? Who has it in for this guy?" Yeah. >> Do you think you guys would have you guys think you'll have the patience >> to go? Wait a minute. What about my family? >> I don't know if I will, but I need to. That's the thing. >> I need I need to have the best

10:03 >> self-control. >> No, I need to have like >> their best um what's the word? Like uh >> interest. >> Interest in mind. >> That's the tough part, you know? >> Yeah. Yeah. Because if you if you're just out of their life, >> bless you. >> That's like the worst. >> That's irreparable. Yeah. It's like there's no way of sins. That's like one of the worst >> cuz now you can't even be there for the healing that they need emotionally from the incident itself. Like you're just gone all the way. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. That's a lot of thought. >> So it's like how do I It's like literally polar opposites of you pulling at each other >> and like what what >> Yeah. >> I guess I guess you need the impulse control not to kill like ████ them up as far as you can without killing them. >> I ain't a killer but don't push me. Revenge is like the sweetest joy. That's getting ████ I mean, the best thing you can do is try to doctor some manufacture some kind of situation that looks like it's a random murder and you have nothing to do with it. But that's

10:53 ████ difficult. >> That's crazy. >> How do you pull that off? >> Call Ryan. >> You can't. >> I think they There has to be a way, Ryan. >> Anybody dumb enough to do that for you is dumb enough to rat you out. >> No, you join jiu-jitsu class with them and then you accidentally kill them in jiu-jitsu. >> Oh, yeah. They sign a waiver. >> They sign a waiver. >> You just introduce him to the most toxic woman you know in your life. Just ruin him that way. get emotional. >> I feel like the maybe the best scenario I could think of now is if I was in that situation, you just knock him out and then find a way to sneakily put him in your car. So as he's out, you have time to think. >> You have time to like plan like, okay, >> but then even then you still got the video footage of you knock the guy out and then dragging him to your car. >> If you have So the way that I would plan it is the more lead time you have, the better, >> right? So So if that foot like let's say you crack that camera, right? It might

11:43 take 12 hours for them to fix the camera, then another 12 hours to find the footage. So now you're 24 hours ahead. So you're just trying to push time behind and then like push time in in your trail >> and then maybe you have time to I don't know, set up some thing in the basement where you lock him out, you know, he's going to starve himself out and you have enough time to drive to Mexico and then from Mexico you fly to ████ Thailand. Like you have enough time where there's so many stops. So what when you're three steps ahead, they're one step ahead. Now you're five steps ahead. on step two and enough. If you get enough steps ahead, then it'll never catch you. But you need that time to be able to think and plan. >> And that's the tough part. >> Yeah, that is tough. >> Unless you really just wanted to stop that whole thing from happening ever again >> and then you're and then you're in jail. That's >> what you mean. It's like not this situation. Talk about in real life like how could you possibly gain that justice

12:34 without >> giving up your life as well? >> Cuz then you're just not in your kid's life. Yeah, >> he he already ████ up. Like it's over. Like he's out of his daughter's life forever now. Like there's nothing else. >> There's him shooting. >> And I don't think I don't remember any kid like in history growing up and and if this happened, they're like, "Yeah, I'm glad my dad did that." And then I just don't have a dad now. You know what I mean? It's usually not that. It's usually like, "Oh, like that's part It's like more pain." >> Cuz the act of you shooting the judge is more for you than it is for your kid. Really? >> Yes. Exactly. It's an impulsive act. Yeah. It's not it's not long-term thinking. >> What feels right, but >> it's a bad investment and it's it's just logically wrong. Like, oh, okay. Like, I just now made my my kids life worse. >> Yeah. >> And there's also a side of you that it like it scratches like the whole honor

13:24 side, you know, or fulfilling the protecting. >> Yeah. Your ego and your whole like how you view yourself is going to change a s███████, but you have to do it for the greater good of like raise this kid. What if you're already estranged relationship with your daughter, but you're just doing it because you're just like, "This is the right thing to do cuz I still love her." >> Well, then if you don't if you really don't care about your life, then ████ that's a nice way to throw it away. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Sick. >> It's a cool story. >> If you've done everything you had to do, you've been in all all the Six Flags in your life, then yeah. >> All the >> Or if you're already going to go down anyway, >> you It's It's the crazy karma, though. It's like if you're doing this ████ to all these random ladies in town, if the sheriff is involved, it's like just karmic that this happens to his own daughter, right? Like that's the other side of it. Like all these scumbags, if he's all if they're all complicit, they all deserve each other in a lot of ways, you know? >> Unless unless he's probably ████ the judge's daughter. >> You can ████ my daughter, I'll ████ your

14:14 daughter. Goddamn it. This Whiteberg, this is my town. >> I'll run Whitebird. >> You don't know how we know. >> No judge is going to run it. That's not >> How many Six Flags are there? >> Not a lot.
