00:01:40
more and more of a Virgo with each passing day I can I definitely have Virgo I mean it's in my big three isn't
00:01:46
it well that's what I'm saying because you're a Virgo rising and I heard um that like the older you get like the
00:01:52
more you go through life you kind of morph more into your rising sign mine is Sagittarius I feel that and I like
00:01:59
saggies so like I'm into a saggy yeah saggies I feel like maybe they like don't give as much as of a [ __ ] about
00:02:06
things as Geminis do I hope maybe it's just a hope I think of mine it's just a hope maybe they hope not to maybe I
00:02:14
don't know well that was astrology with Ash it was you were just like but you're
00:02:19
becoming a Virgo yeah you are I just I feel it because Dave is a Virgo and I'm noticing a lot of attributes of Dave
00:02:25
that you are yeah Dave and I are very have found each other realizing that we're very alike you are yeah there's
00:02:32
moments where we're just like huh well and Drew is a Capricorn and like he he definitely possesses like some Capricorn
00:02:39
qualities for sure he's a January Capricorn he's a January Capricorn which is different but he's also a Taurus
00:02:44
rising and I was saying to him that lately I feel like he comes off way more Taurus but they also say that you come
00:02:50
off to other people like like your rising sign is what you present to other people I'm pretty sure oh so I present a
00:02:57
Virgo yeah and that makes sense I feel like Virgos are misunderstood and sometimes I feel like you're
00:03:02
misunderstood yeah yeah Capricorns are too yeah definitely we're both in this yeah and then you got cancer in there
00:03:08
which just like [ __ ] it all up which is really wild yeah your big signs are chaotic they're very they're scary mine
00:03:14

00:03:22
that cuz I'm a Pisces Moon which I don't like to claim out loud but here we are you know I have actually never mind
00:03:28
I'm not going to say that anyways let's get into the story let's stop now that we've all discussed our
00:03:35
risings and big threes yeah I hope you guys yelled yours out at us dude yeah I hope you did that's what I hope for us
00:03:41

00:03:52
cars they're not too long so I feel like you can hang in and like yell back at us
00:03:56
for a minute and then we're like all right yeah right getting back on track so yeah let's get back on track let's
00:04:02
get back on track this is Sharon Kenny AKA La pist I can't say it in American accent I just have to say it
00:04:10
iny um but that's the case that we're covering we're in part two of that and in part one we covered you know Sharon's
00:04:18
I would call it failed marriage her first husband I would also call that a failed marriage yeah his untimely and
00:04:24
wild wildly wildly suspicious death yes we covered her affair with married man named Walter and then we found out that
00:04:32
Walter's wife Patricia had been murdered and Sharon had not only been the one to
00:04:37
find her but was also the last person to be seen with her the very day that she went missing mhm and then finally at the
00:04:44
end of part one Sharon was arrested right after Patricia's funeral so there's that I've said it like 42 times
00:04:50
but I am just going to say it one more time trial heavy in the beginning of this one stick with me I'm I'm sticking
00:04:56
I'm here I'm glad you are I'm not going anywhere re by contract to be here so while that means a lot to me that you're
00:05:02
not going anywhere it's also just the law yeah I mean but if you're not contractually obligated to be here I
00:05:09
appreciate you and I love you I love that yeah we're all in this together that's good we're just not all under the
00:05:15
same contracts no but the next morning June 1st after you know she was arrested Sharon appeared before magistrate JJ
00:05:24
Brady in an independence courtroom where she was formally arraigned with the first-degree murder of Patricia Jones
00:05:30
and a preliminary hearing was scheduled for June 16th in the meantime she was held on $20,000 bond which friends in
00:05:37
relatives actually wasted no time pulling together and she was released that very
00:05:43
afternoon what I feel like even that speaks to like the manipulation she was able to conjure yeah like friends and
00:05:51
relatives were like yeah I know that two people have been mysteriously shot or murdered around you lately in a span of
00:06:01
2 months but like I don't think you have anything to do with it wow yeah wow yeah
00:06:08
yeah she's a she's a high level manipulator what we've been discovering but then after the arraignment for
00:06:14
Patricia's murder the sheriff's department actually asked district attorney William Colette to file charges
00:06:21
against Sharon for the murder of her husband there you go I was waiting for that he did that later that afternoon
00:06:27
but the biggest issue for the prosecutor office was the lack of forensic evidence
00:06:31
connecting Sharon to both murders there was not a lot of forensic evidence and remember it's the 60s so they didn't
00:06:38
have like a [ __ ] ton that they could do like there wasn't any DNA there was DNA
00:06:42
to test but there weren't any tests yet to figure it out very true so they knew she was the last person to be seen with
00:06:49
P Patricia Jones and she had been uncooperative from the start of the investigation but with the fourth bullet
00:06:56
or the 20 or excuse me without the fourth bullet or the 20 2 caliber pistol used in the shooting prosecutors knew
00:07:02
that getting a conviction would be an uphill battle but they were ready to climb uphill investigators citizen
00:07:08
volunteers and even a troop of Boy Scouts had scoured the crime scene with metal detectors like I mentioned in part
00:07:13
one but still they hadn't found any evidence but then finally on June 2nd a sergeant with the Sheriff's Office
00:07:21
located the fourth slug lodged about 6 in into the ground directly under where Patricia's body had been found so it was
00:07:29
lodged in there it was lodged into the Earth so then you wonder I mean I don't know if I'm being like super no you go
00:07:37
for it you theorize cuz we were saying how we like they believed initially that she was brought there and probably
00:07:43
dumped because of the lack of blood and then they found that Barn so my thought process here is cuz that Barn kind of
00:07:48
like disappeared you said it does feel like it like it kind of does disappear because they they theorized that maybe
00:07:55
she was shot there because there was some evidence that like some something was shot there yeah or somebody shot
00:08:01
there but the cause of death was the shot to the Head yes so I'm wondering if all that happened somewhere else she was
00:08:06
dumped there and they did one more shot to the stomach to try to confuse the whole thing maybe and that's why there's
00:08:12
no blood because she had already died from the blood from the shot to the head so it's not
00:08:17
flowing brilliant that's on some investigator type [ __ ] that's just that's just me
00:08:23
over here being an investigator yeah you know that makes a lot of sense what are
00:08:27
you writing like a novel about murderers something no no no never yeah that I didn't even think of that could have
00:08:34
been it that definitely could have been it pretty it's pretty shady because they
00:08:39
never really account for the lack of blood at the scene yeah so maybe that's it could be why yeah it's just like an
00:08:46
Overkill kind of thing to confuse things or just like an angry Overkill yeah like
00:08:50
one more you know one more mhm you're right but anyway finding that missing slug was huge that was a huge win
00:08:57
regardless but it was immediately followed followed by a pretty big blow once they realized that the coroner had
00:09:03
sent Patricia's body to the mortuary with the two remaining slugs still in the body which had then been buried
00:09:11
everybody so not so yeah they he sent her body off to the mortuary and she had already been buried with those slugs
00:09:20
still in her great a spokesperson for the sheriff's office told reporters we feel there was a negligence at the time
00:09:25
of the autopsy you feel that they did feel that I also feel that I feel that from you know decades after me still
00:09:33
feel that I still feel it in my bones and according to the sheriff investigators had made the explicit
00:09:38
request for the coroner to hold the body for additional testing and removal of the remaining Club but the coroner
00:09:45
disregarded the request sent Patricia's body to the mortuary where she was prepared for B for burial destroying
00:09:52
what could have been vital evidence in this case why the [ __ ] she's a murder victim why are you sending her off with
00:09:59
evidence inside of her body it gets worse the more investigators dug into Patricia's case the worse things looked
00:10:06
for Pro for the prosecution not only had legit evidence been buried with the body
00:10:11
but the embalming process actually occurred before the coroner performed the autopsy shut the [ __ ] up they emomed
00:10:18
the body first before he did the autopsy what Colette told the Press it's just all botched up how badly this
00:10:28
series series of mistakes will hurt us we'll have to be determined later this is not the first case they messed up for
00:10:34
us and it probably won't be the last like how do you even how and also if this is not the
00:10:41
first case that they've messed up for you and you're pretty confident it's not going to be the last uh we think it's
00:10:47
time to hire a new coroner yeah I'm going to go on on a limb here and say that coroner is not good at their job
00:10:53
like what also I wonder if this where where did this take place Independence Missouri I wonder if this this is a this
00:10:59
is one of those cases against coroners like that against like a voted in coroners cuz it's like this could be a
00:11:06
case where this guy had no [ __ ] business doing any of this [ __ ] it kind of sounds sounds like I'm G to look this
00:11:12
[ __ ] up go for it cuz it does sound like it according to the prosecutor's office
00:11:16
the coroner even tried to cover up his mistakes at multiple points in the investigation what the [ __ ] he told
00:11:22
detectives this is wild you're going to you're going to I don't even know what you're going to do but you're going to
00:11:27
lose your mind at this oh no he told detectives finding the slugs in the body would be like looking for a needle and a
00:11:35
hay stack literally shut the [ __ ] up what like you have literal entrance wounds that's the thing like slugs don't
00:11:44
appear in a body there's a [ __ ] exit wound that you can follow pretty quickly looking for a needle and a Hast stack
00:11:50
looking for a needle in a Hast stack are you kidding me like what are you saying
00:11:55
is this guy all right who is this man no because I'm not done yet this is what's
00:12:00
really going to send you he also told them that he did not want to conduct tests on the stomach contents because it
00:12:07
would be and I quote too messy this guy had to have been voted it he's not a real [ __ ] medical there's
00:12:15
no way too messy like that's your that's your whole your whole entire job is messy and Wily and crazy and smelly and
00:12:24
what like literally that's the field you went into brother you walk into that room and it's just your mess smells
00:12:32
everything of course what are you doing have you ever open honey coroner dear coroner from 1950 whatever or 1960
00:12:41
whatever have you performed an autopsy before because I don't think you have there's no way you have if you're like
00:12:47
that would be messy messy he had because he also he had [ __ ] up cases for them
00:12:53
in the past I'm I think you're right I didn't I I forgot about that whole thing where like they were
00:13:00
I'm looking it up because this is not too messy he this is not no yeah but fortunately for the prosecution moving
00:13:08
away from that for a second fortunately for the prosecution Patricia's husband Walter Jones did actually allow them to
00:13:14
exume Patricia's body so that a proper autopsy could be conducted oh thank goodness and realistically you can't
00:13:19
even call it a proper autopsy at that point because she's already been [ __ ] embalmed but they could do way better
00:13:26
than this guy did yeah now in addition to retrieving the remaining bullets the new pathologist like a legit one Dr
00:13:33
Charles Charles wheeler he was able to determine that what Patricia ate before the murder she had pickles and salami
00:13:40
which that's a girl dinner that is that truly is and I would eat that and I want
00:13:45
that right now but he also confirmed that she had not been sexually assaulted and he was able to confirm the sequence
00:13:51
in which the bullets had entered the body so this guy is legit yeah now the new autopsy results were encouraging to
00:13:57
the prosecution because they not only retrieved those remaining slugs but they also concluded that the murder was not
00:14:03
motivated by sexual deviance or robbery leaving the most likely explanation to be a personal Grudge why else would this
00:14:10
woman have been Mur of course yeah now for Sharon the investigation into both petricia and James's deaths were
00:14:17
immediately a big inconvenience with the murder case reopened or opened and James's death the insurance company
00:14:24
stopped any payments on her claims which left her with little money for her expensive defense attorneys or her
00:14:30
expensive or her excessive spending and basic needs yeah so she was like in a bad place now in response she ended up
00:14:37
putting her house on the market she sold her car and she hoped that the money from those two things would keep her
00:14:43
afloat until her payments resumed because she believed they would yeah of course now as detectives and the
00:14:49
prosecution kept building the case against her or the cases the introduction of Sharon's defense team
00:14:55
slowed things down considerably because at every step of the way they challenged
00:15:01
almost everything the prosecution said or did or tried to admit or of course anything and because of that actually a
00:15:09
full year passed before either case finally went to trial and when they did finally go to trial things did not look
00:15:15
as good as the prosecution had hoped uh oh yeah Sharon's trial for the murder of
00:15:20
Patricia Jones began June 12th 1961 with opening statements being given on the afternoon of June 14th in his
00:15:28
statement for the prosecution Jay arnet Hill presented the state's case they believed Sharon Kenny had been having an
00:15:34
affair with Walter Jones and after he refused to divorce his wife she lured Patricia to this meeting place and shot
00:15:40
her to death once she killed Patricia Sharon dumped her body in an area known to be frequented by young people and
00:15:47
staged the scene to quote give indications that a crime of sexual passion had occurred yeah fully yeah
00:15:52
like to me I'm like yeah yeah but also we have the background knowledge of everything else that has gone on in her
00:16:00
life absolutely unfortunately the jury did not yeah did you get anywhere yet by the way I did so I did see the you were
00:16:07
because this is called a coroner at this point Y they do now in Jackson County have an they have a medical examiner
00:16:13
okay and she's a woman she looks like a badass I don't know I'm just saying she's the chief medical examiner but
00:16:18
she's a medical examiner she is a doctor she is a forensic pathologist like she is there but it says in the state of
00:16:26
Missouri a larger Urban counties operate under medical examiner jurisdiction while smaller counties by Statute
00:16:33
operate under coroner jurisdiction and it says coroners from several rural Missouri counties uh contract with the
00:16:41
Jackson County medical examiner's office for autopsy Services when needed but I'm
00:16:46
assuming back in 1960 they just had an elected coroner because that's the difference between an
00:16:51
Emmy and a coroner right as a coroner is usually an elected lay person that has no [ __ ]
00:16:57
businessing that's like still something that happens yeah so I think that's probably what happened here is that was
00:17:03
an elected official who had no business doing this I mean if it's not the if that's not the case I'm appalled and if
00:17:11
it is I'm still appalled I would be willing to bet a lot was an elected off official that is not a a medical doctor
00:17:17
I would think so because the fact that he said it was going to be too messy and also just like looking for needles in a
00:17:23
Hast stock it's like doing an autopsy after they had been inbombed like what what the [ __ ] are you doing my guy when
00:17:29
he said it would be too messy that immediately I was like you're you're elected like that's this is not like
00:17:35
what wild absolutely wild damn but going back to the prosecution's case their case was pretty straightforward it
00:17:43
relied on a string of witnesses who told the jury they saw Patricia with Sharon Kenny just before she disappeared they
00:17:49
also relied on Expert testimony from investigators and Dr Wheeler the actual medical like coroner here and he explain
00:17:58
explained the results of the second autopsy however the prosecution still had several hurdles before them
00:18:04
particularly the initial botched autopsy that was going to really play a big part
00:18:09
in this case and [ __ ] it all up and the fact that they still had again almost no
00:18:14
physical evidence tying Sharon to this murder yeah now the lack of uh forensic evidence became apparent on
00:18:20
cross-examination when Lieutenant Harry Nesbit from the sheriff's department was
00:18:24
asked about the guns collected during the search of the Kenny home when defense attorney James Quinn asked which
00:18:30
guns were collected nesbet explained that they had confiscated a 22 rifle an automatic pistol that had belonged to
00:18:37
Sharon's father and a quote blank pistol excuse me blank pistol which won't shoot however nesbet testified none of
00:18:46
the guns were a match for those used in the murder of Patricia Jones and remember somebody that Sharon had worked
00:18:52
with had come forward and said like she made me buy her this gun Y and she said she left it with family in Washington
00:18:58
but but it sounds like they were never able to locate that gun so that's why none of these are that's still hanging
00:19:05
out there and it's like yeah exactly makes sense now the conflicting autopsy reports like I said made things even
00:19:11
worse for the prosecution during his examination of the original coroner Dr Hugh Owens the prosecutor could barely
00:19:18
hide his contempt for this guy he believed and actually publicly accused him of compromising their case yeah
00:19:25
during questioning Owens was described as having quote smiled frostily evidently recalling that the handling of
00:19:32
the body at the time resulted in a dispute between his office and law enforcement authorities who charged that
00:19:38
an inadequate postmortem examination had limited the collection of vital evidence
00:19:42
yeah which also that answers our question he's a doctor so he is a legit it sounds like
00:19:47
he is legit yeah CU what his name is uh Dr H Owens what the [ __ ] yeah now the results
00:19:57
of the conflicting reports meant that the prosecution now couldn't be precise about a lot of the important details the
00:20:03
time of death the presence of any chemicals or any drugs in Patricia system and the presence of any hairs or
00:20:09
fibers on the body during the autopsy so this the fact that they had to perform a
00:20:13
second autopsy you would think originally like oh wow that's great like thank goodness they got to do that but
00:20:19
it actually [ __ ] everything up because now those two reports were directly conflicting with each other and it makes
00:20:25
it look like you don't have any idea what's on here it's true so while the conflicting medical reports were
00:20:31
undoubtedly the biggest hurdle for the prosecution to clear their additional Witnesses didn't do much to help the day
00:20:38
after Hill's frustrating examination of Dr Owens Walter Jones took the stand and
00:20:43
told the jury about his relationship with Sharon Kenny his attempt to end their relationship and the enraged
00:20:49
threats that he made to her when he found out that she'd been seen with Patricia right before she
00:20:54
disappeared uh the admissions didn't exactly endear him to the jury but what was more problematic was that
00:21:00
he described Sharon as being very willing to allow him to search her and her belongings for weapons and he told
00:21:07
the jury that she offered to Aid in the search for Patricia oh damn I mean after
00:21:11
he forcibly held a knife to her throat but I mean yeah there was that there was the whole out of it there was that but
00:21:16
they were like okay well she was like willing to help you so like who does that when they've actually killed the
00:21:22
person now that same day the defense offered the additional slugs into evidence the ones that had been fired
00:21:28
from the gun that Sharon had her cooworker buy a few weeks before the murder the gun had been purchased in a
00:21:34
private sale but the investigators had actually managed to track down the previous owner who led them to a
00:21:40
location that he used for Target PR uh practice and ballistics technicians were able to pull several slugs from a tree
00:21:48
so while they couldn't locate that particular gun they located the man who had owned it and they got his slugs from
00:21:54
that gun which like that was pretty good police I was going to say that was good
00:21:58
police were but unfortunately for the prosecution the slug admitted into the evidence was a match for the caliber of
00:22:05
the gun but could not be confirmed as the same model used in Patricia's death because they didn't have it right there
00:22:12
now given the amount of circumstantial evidence versus the lack of forensic evidence in the prosecution's case the
00:22:18
defense really didn't have to work that hard on Sharon's behalf they said it was
00:22:23
true that she'd been seen with Patricia just before her death you know she'd been thoroughly uncooperative with in
00:22:28
the investigation and actually she'd been overheard at one point by law enforcement officials boasting that
00:22:34
quote as long as we didn't have the gun we couldn't prove it was her wow but they said none of that conclusively
00:22:41
linked her to Patricia's murder in fact their case was even more simple than the
00:22:46
states they said Sharon might be guilty of having an extra marital Affair that doesn't make her a
00:22:51
killer [ __ ] they went like pretty simple they went really simplistic with it so
00:22:56
rather than even try to prove her innocent all they did was undermine the flimsy evidence that had been put forth
00:23:02
by the prosecution now among those called to testify by the defense was Donald Fitzpatrick a man who claimed he
00:23:08
was at the lovers's lane area with his quote married woman companion he testified that they hadn't seen any body
00:23:16
or evidence of a murder when they were at the scene a short time before Patricia's body was discovered and given
00:23:21
that the prosecution claimed Patricia had been killed at that location Fitzpatrick's testimony actually under
00:23:28
mind The credibility of their case oh damn because how did she get there if she if she was killed there he would
00:23:33
have seen her they saying oh yeah this is getting a little Wy it is Wy this this is brought to you
00:23:41
by the word Wy Wy yes very true so the defense took less than two days to present their case and on June 23rd 1961
00:23:50
the jury went into deliberation after just an hour and a half they returned with a verdict of not guilty what what
00:23:58
and they cited the prosecution's heavy Reliance on conjecture as the reason for the verdict so basically they're saying
00:24:05
like you're just saying that because she had an affair with This Woman's husband
00:24:11
that you're like jumping to conclusions here it's just Reasonable Doubt exactly like you're just putting Reasonable
00:24:17
Doubt in there exactly now when asked for a comment Sharon simply smiled and told reporters I feel as good as I can
00:24:23
yeah I bet you do so her lead defense attorney James Quinn this is so stupid on the other hand he had more to say on
00:24:29
the matter he told the Press actually there was a power outside this courtroom affecting this verdict the hand of
00:24:37
Providence which is like a religious thing yeah yeah uh he went on to address questions about the reason for the
00:24:44
verdict saying you cannot speculate you cannot base your judgment on speculation
00:24:48
conjecture it's like okay we get it you I already did though everybody did I did
00:24:52
we're all speculating I know she didn't stay speculating stay speculating on this one so Shar Kenny had managed to
00:24:58
get away with one murder because she did murder Patricia Jones as we all know yeah and don't worry we'll find out for
00:25:03
sure later that she very much did and in the wake of the acquittal she entered into her next murder trial confident
00:25:09
that a similar lack of evidence would lead to a similar verdict oh no I don't know so with the first trial behind them
00:25:17
the prosecution and the defense started preparing for the second one scheduled to begin January 8th
00:25:22
1962 coincidentally it was actually to take place before the same judge judge Tom stubs who presided over that first
00:25:29
trial which also makes you nervous because she just got acquitted yeah exactly now defense attorney Quinn and
00:25:34
the rest of Sharon's def Sharon's defense team felt pretty confident they could get their second acquittal the
00:25:39
case against Sharon in the death of James seemed even weaker than the prosecution's case against her and
00:25:44
Patricia Jones's death and on top of that they were barred from admitting any new evidence
00:25:51
Jesus and with the initial determination of accidental death that would be pretty
00:25:56
hard for the for the prosec ution to get around so after one day of jury selection opening statements began
00:26:01
January 9th and again Jay arnet Hill laid out the state's case according to him just weeks before her husband's
00:26:08
death both Sharon and James had confided to others that their marriage had essentially come to an end and they had
00:26:15
both expressed interest in getting a divorce the problem though was that neither of them seemed willing to agree
00:26:21
to the others terms which made that divorce seem unlikely so when Sharon came to the realization that she was not
00:26:27
going to get out of her marriage as easily as she hoped and she wasn't going to come out of it with as big of a
00:26:32
payout as she had hoped she quote called a man named Donald Boone telling him she
00:26:37
had something dirty for him to do what and offered him $1,000 to kill her husband where the [ __ ] did this come
00:26:46
from Left Field baby what so Hill ends up calling John Bal to the stand intending to have him confirm a previous
00:26:55
statement that he had given to invest instigators about Sharon having offered him ,000 to kill her H sh Fu up I knew
00:27:03
it I knew this little 2-year-old did not kill a man no he didn't come on she's even worse she blamed her 2-year-old
00:27:09
daughter yeah for the murder of her own father she suck holy [ __ ] but in his deposition John Bal there given before
00:27:17
the trial he told the prosecutor about how Sharon had offered him the money to kill James and implied that they could
00:27:23
be together with James out of the way he said all of that in his deposition but on the stand Bal insisted Sharon wasn't
00:27:31
serious and the offer was quote unquote in a joking fashion no one jokes about hiring you as a Hitman to kill their
00:27:38
husband who they hate and have been trying to get away from for a long time and if you no one jokes about that if
00:27:44
you are around someone who is joking about hiring a Hitman get as far away from that human as humanly possible
00:27:51
because again they're not joking even if you think they are they're not they're serious why does this happen all the
00:27:57
time in these cases where someone's like I don't know they were just joking about
00:28:00
killing their dad and it's like [ __ ] joking about it never in my life have I been like what if I gave you like about
00:28:06
specific amount of money to murder my loved one I've never had a fully fleshed out joke about murdering anyone that I
00:28:14
love L it is just not real all I can picture in my head is Tes going funny laugh haa like this is just not real
00:28:23
like this guy sitting on this stand saying like she was always joking she was always so funny she's just kidding
00:28:31
she was always a silly haha she was always just making these crazy jokes she's doing a tight 10 about
00:28:38
me killing her husband if I give if she gives me $1,000 no idiot especially when
00:28:43
someone's offering you a monetary reward for killing this person and then they're like just kidding like
00:28:49
when are you going to learn when are you going to learn guys it CS worse I'm so annoyed by this thing this this is
00:28:55
brought to you by the word the word Wy in the phrase it gets worse it gets worse he also insisted that there was a
00:29:02
quote unquote typo in his deposition testimony in the section where he quoted Sharon as saying quote I got my husband
00:29:10
taken care of and I thought we could be together he said it should have read business not husband I got my business
00:29:17
taken care of that's quite a [ __ ] typo that's a real typo I love when people claim typos and it's like a whole
00:29:23
ass word it's like that's not a typo you just type the word you to type in oops a
00:29:29
typo would be if they spelled husband wrong if they wrote like hubsand exactly that's a typo husband in business not so
00:29:35
much what you meant was you said something that was pretty [ __ ] uh damning and you're like oops I didn't
00:29:40
mean to say that damning thing so I actually meant to say this not super damning thing but still kind of damning
00:29:45
it's also like damn [ __ ] you were really scared of her huh like what you're you're sitting there safe in your
00:29:52
deposition in the hands of police being like Oh my gosh she said all of this and
00:29:55
I'm she woman but he's like Sharon I would never she's the comedian of Our Generation and I'm I didn't say that at
00:30:04
all I would never be smirched her name like that Sharon you have to believe me he's like no she should have a Netflix
00:30:10
special God she's so funny jokes she does it for the laws wow so Sharon's defense attorney
00:30:16
James Quinn there he's seized on the inconsistencies well no he's or no oh it's defensive I you that he's seized on
00:30:24
the inconsistency in bal's story in his cross examination he asked it was obviously a joke wasn't it it was just
00:30:32
like if I'd said to you John I'd give you a th $100 to see you jump off of City Hall wasn't it he's like we're all
00:30:39
just Ling and laughing and having good times with each other John right we're all just comedians well just so funny
00:30:45
our jokes are great but despite what B had previously told the prosecutor the implication of defense attorney Quinn's
00:30:52
question was that you know any rational person would consider such a discussion to be a joke and Sharon obviously wasn't
00:31:00
serious about hiring someone to murder her husband I literally can't I can't when this is a defense like I literally
00:31:07
can't when it's like jokes everybody jokes it's like I no jokes are what no like jokes are jokes y I love a good
00:31:15
joke oh I love comedy I am for comedy same but when you joke about killing your husband and offering someone money
00:31:24
to do so and then your husband gets murdered it's pretty weird that's a problem for you and
00:31:30
that's when jokes are not F like that's a problem of course it is that's why joking about Hitman is not a great idea
00:31:36
not funny so in their closing arguments both sides rested their cases the prosecutor contended that Sharon had
00:31:42
killed James in order to get rid of him and cash in on his various life insurance policies and the defense
00:31:48
maintained the initial conclusion that it was an accidental shooting and Sharon was the funniest woman in all of history
00:31:53
and Quinn reminded the jury of the obvious lack of evidence in the case saying and then with no more evidence
00:31:59
than in the initial investigation the charge is changed to murder but the jury went into deliberation on the afternoon
00:32:06
of January 11th and they deliberated a little over an hour before court was adjourned for the day outside of the
00:32:12
courthouse a confident James Quinn told reporters we feel Sharon will be acquitted in this case we believe the
00:32:18
state's evidence failed to hit the mark and he was right the state really didn't
00:32:22
have the strongest case in the world which is why it came as a surprise to nearly everyone
00:32:27
when the jury returned the next afternoon with a guilty verdict damn said guilty what the [ __ ] is going on
00:32:36
where am I so the Press noted that the outcome of the case quote hinged on the testimony of John Bal And the reporter
00:32:43
said that his attempts to reframe his earlier testimony as nothing more than a joke actually ended up making Sharon
00:32:50
look way more suspicious absolutely did now Sharon appeared to give no reaction or show any real emotion when the
00:32:56
verdict was R but the matron who booked her into the jail house that afternoon told the Press she had little tears in
00:33:02
her eyes and she said she didn't feel good now the next day Sharon gave an interview to the Press saying I think
00:33:08
the verdict was a mistake something went wrong and when it came to why this [ __ ]
00:33:13
when it came to why she believed she'd been convicted she said for a while I thought it was a good idea to have a
00:33:18
woman on the jury now I don't think so oh [ __ ] off Sharon [ __ ] right off implying that the sole Fe female juror
00:33:26
had jealous or judgmental and that led to the guilty verdict no it's the fact that you're an ice cold [ __ ] killer
00:33:33
who blamed this on your child [ __ ] and you know what that that's the thing it's further cements the idea that you
00:33:39
would blame a death on your 2-year-old daughter you and also kill the woman who is married to the man you're having an
00:33:46
affair with who you don't even love Sharon is not a girls girl you are not a [ __ ] girls girl Sharon not and you're
00:33:53
honestly not even a guy's girl I don't know what you are but you're Sinister VI yeah you're Sinister VI she is Sinister
00:33:59
Vibe so Sharon received a life sentence for the murder of her husband and during
00:34:04
her first year in during her first year in jail her lawyers and supporters petitioned the
00:34:11
court to have her released on bail citing her children as a reason for the request I'm like y'all she blamed one of
00:34:17
them for this I'm sorry what like she got what she what she just got convicted of murder and you're like no she has
00:34:26
baby she just got convicted of murder of which she blamed her 2-year-old daughter
00:34:31
for and you're like but you should take care of those kids I'm like I don't think she should be anywhere [ __ ]
00:34:35
near those children are you kidding me no what is happening over there I don't know Missouri is not all right Missouri
00:34:43
Independence Missouri is out here wild in Wild okay no the answer is is there anybody out there are you all right I
00:34:50
mean hopefully now twice if you need help like this is this is wild I hope it's gotten better since then one would
00:34:57
damn I don't think Sharon's there anymore I could tell that much but the petitions were repeatedly denied but the
00:35:02
ongoing coverage of the now completed trial did help win Sharon's sympathy from the support in the public and while
00:35:08
the support was not enough to overturn the verdict who's the public Independence it did prompt a
00:35:13
reevaluation of the trial shut up during the reevaluation defense attorney Quinn
00:35:18
there argued repeatedly that Sharon was deserving of a new trial because of several administrative errors initially
00:35:25
the petitions were denied like I said said but when the case finally reached the state supreme court in early
00:35:31
1963 the justices agreed with the defense and ordered Sharon to receive a new trial I got to go so in July she was
00:35:38
freed on a $25,000 Bond she had literally been con Elena just smacked her microphone and banged into the wall
00:35:45
she is Udi 5000 she said I gotta go she said I quit I can't this is so frustrating she had
00:35:54
been acquitted of one murder senten to life in prison for another and all of a sudden then they're like
00:36:01
actually I don't think so and then they just let her walk they just let her walk
00:36:06
no no absolutely not even though she'd been freed on a technicality the growing wave of support for her Freedom was a
00:36:15
strong indicator of what was to come yeah and of course oh over the course sorry not of course over the course he
00:36:23
went I didn't know where I was um this is a frust this is very frustrating over the course of 1963 and
00:36:34
1964 the prosecutor's office would retry Sharon two more times both resulting in
00:36:40
a mistrial the first because of a jury members undisclosed conflict of interest come on I'm like you and Sharon [ __ ] I
00:36:47
was just going to say was that the reason not a doubt in my mind and the second because of a deadlock jury which
00:36:53
was actually leaning in favor of a quiddle oh oh my gosh now despite the jury my gosh oh my Goden his scream oh
00:37:03
my God so despite the jury leaning toward aquid in the third trial the prosecutor's intent to try Sharon for
00:37:12
her fourth time for the murder of James Kenny was untenable after years in courtrooms and jail cells the entire
00:37:19
process had become exhausting for Sharon she was for us too and for us and everybody in Independence she was
00:37:25
splitting her time between her trials her children and her part-time job now she was working at a motel so in a a
00:37:31
moment of impulsivity she decided to quit her job figuring that it would allow her to spend more time with her
00:37:38
kids evident or allegedly so she went down to the employment office to apply for benefits
00:37:45
now this is insane it was at the employment office in August of 1964 that Sharon first laid eyes on Frank Pugi who
00:37:55
was ahead of her in line struggling to understand the paperwork he was being asked to filled out oh no like many of
00:38:01
Sharon's lovers pigi was a blue collar guy who dropped out of high school at 16 and you know had been drifting around
00:38:07
the Midwest for years taking random jobs where he could find them he also had a criminal history of petty crimes and had
00:38:15
spent short stints in jail and actually he had recently gotten out of jail that's why he was looking for work at
00:38:21
the employment office awesome somehow Sharon involved herself and his struggle with the paperwork and the two of them H
00:38:29
it off and started dating this gal what a meat cute what a meat cute she is quitting her job and applying for
00:38:39
benefits you know awaiting her murder trial and she meets a man who just got out of jail
00:38:46
honestly like damn meant to be damn damn is right this is wild she's also I'm pretty sure like 28 or 29 at this point
00:38:55
like she's I'm like your 20s were such a ride Sharon your 20s oh yeah I this is just outrageous so after the stress of
00:39:04
all of her legal wo Sharon welcomed the male attention and affection and she and
00:39:09
Frank dated through the rest of the summer and into the fall and just like her other relationship Sharon and Frank
00:39:14
fell for each other very fast and by September she convinced him to sign what she considered an informal marriage
00:39:22
contract wow like they didn't legally get married but she was like signed this says we're married some people just have
00:39:28
this this way I don't get it it's amazing yeah I don't know I don't know what Sharon possessed but I'm just like
00:39:37
I don't know she was she was good at something but the problem however was that her new trial was set to begin in
00:39:42
early October oops and despite her uncanny ability to dodge any and all responsibility there was still a chance
00:39:49
that she was going back to prison for the murder of her [ __ ] husband which I'm also like Frank you're really
00:39:54
jumping onto this ship apparently but if we know Sharon we know she's got a scheme up that we know Sharon so about
00:40:02
this is you're going to [ __ ] oh no about 2 weeks into September she went to her
00:40:07
lawyer's office and explained that she and Frank were in love and they wanted to take a vacation to Mexico before
00:40:12
their trial before her trial began shut the [ __ ] up now given that she was still
00:40:17
out of jail on a $25,000 Bond pending the outcome of the trial there was some question as to whether she could travel
00:40:24
or not there was some question there was lots of questions there was there was inquiries into whether she should leave
00:40:31
for Mexico like Mexico I don't know why I'm just losing my ability to speak her lawyer
00:40:39
explained her lawyer explained it that as long as she was back before the trial began it was okay with
00:40:48
him just come back [Music] no just come back for your murder trial after going to Mexico have you ever
00:40:57
watched a [ __ ] TV show God damn it hurry back now Sharon hurry back now you're here for your murder trial Jesus
00:41:06
[ __ ] Christ I can't we're never seeing Sharon again she that's you know what's crazy we are
00:41:17
we are going to see Sharon again in this case can't predict [ __ ] this case it doesn't make any sense like I said
00:41:23
brought to you by Wy so I'm on the afternoon of September 12th 19 12th 1964 Sharon made multiple trips to the local
00:41:32
Safeway grocery store as one does each time writing bad checks to get cash for her trip for his part Frank fell back on
00:41:39
his old ways and stole food cash and other supplies from his friends and Associates prank and Sharon and also was
00:41:45
able to borrow a car from a friend that he and Sharon would eventually take up to the Border my goodness or down to the
00:41:50
Border down to the Border later that afternoon always yes sure is later that afternoon with cash in hand and a car
00:42:00
load of food and supplies Sharon dropped her kids off with her I guess ex-mother-in-law and she and Frank took
00:42:06
off for Mexico so she just dropped her kids it was like she she abandoned her children so they drove almost non-stop
00:42:13
for two days until they reached Laro Texas the last stop before Crossing into Mexico but unfortunately for them
00:42:21
without the proper paperwork or registration proving ownership of this vehicle the Border agents refused to let
00:42:26
them go through Mexico or go through to Mexico in the car and they were like that's fine they ditched it at the
00:42:33
border and took the bus into Mexico City this man borrowed a whole last vehicle from his friend and then said at the
00:42:39
border it's at the border sorry got to go get it the [ __ ] now although they' made it pretty easily to their
00:42:46
destination neither of them spoke Spanish why the [ __ ] are you going to plan a trip to Mexico if you don't speak
00:42:53
Spanish like any Spanish whatsoever I have I don't know I don't know the answer is I don't know so that made
00:43:03
communication a pretty big problem did it yeah now on September 14th they checked into the hotel Jin which the
00:43:09
couple chose simply for its quote unquote coint name I'm like you chose that hotel cuz
00:43:16
you thought they had Jin yeah that that checks but when they arrived they found that the hotel was anything but quaint
00:43:22
there were roaches climbing up the walls of the bathroom and rats and mice running from one room to another before
00:43:28
disappearing through the the holes that were in the walls no uh it was also in a
00:43:33
neighborhood that Sharon had deemed unsafe so she kept a pistol and a hatchet by her bed at all times uhoh I
00:43:41
have to say Frank baby do you know do you like have you read the local paper when you were back in Independence
00:43:48
you're sleeping next to a woman who is supposed to head to trial soon for the murder of her husband and you go to
00:43:54
sleep next to her at night when next to her is a hatchet and a pistol oh no the wild thing it's not Frank it's not Frank
00:44:03
it's not Frank wow I thought it was going to be frank no so after a few days enjoying the local night life Frank and
00:44:09
Sharon were running very low on money and they were both really sick from an excess on local food and alcohol
00:44:15
probably more alcohol than food so on Friday September 18th Sharon left the hotel Jin to go in search of an
00:44:22
English-speaking pharmacist who could give them something for their stomachs and she brought her pistol with her for
00:44:27
protection now after struggling to find anyone who could accommodate her a local
00:44:32
man directed her to the Del uh Del pra Hotel a hotel that catered to American tourists where she could definitely find
00:44:39
somebody who spoke English and Spanish now the first person person that she encountered at the hotel was Francisco
00:44:47
Paredes um ordones a Mexican born resident of California who was in Mexico to visit his family oh now Sharon was
00:44:55
already fed up with with Frank and the frustrations of running low on money so she welcomed the opportunity for some
00:45:01
male attention oh [ __ ] Sharon and with the pistol tucked in her pocket she did not hesitate when Francisco uh
00:45:07
suggested that they go back to his room for a few drinks he thought she was pretty now what happened next is a
00:45:13
matter of debate and if you're putting any money on Sharon I don't know what I could do for you yeah but according to
00:45:19
Sharon after two or three drinks with uh Francisco she got tired and laid down on
00:45:26
the bed to go to sleep for a while take a little nap she claimed that she was woken around 3:00 a.m. when he tried to
00:45:32
quote sexually attack her sexually and she said believing herself to be in danger she drew the pistol from
00:45:39
her pocket and fired twice into his chest killing him instantly now the noise drew the
00:45:45
attention of the hotel's night manager Enrique Rueda who ran to the room to find out what the [ __ ] was going on now
00:45:53
coming upon the scene of an unknown woman woman having shot one of the hotel guests he attempted to detain Sharon
00:46:00
while he contacted police and that's when she raised the gun and shot him in the back leaving him in critical
00:46:09
condition yeah but despite his gunshot wound and eventual critical condition he managed to lock her in the bathroom
00:46:19
while he contacted the police this man is a hero and the police arrived a short time later now having left one of the
00:46:27
men at the hotel alive there was no question of Sharon's involvement in the shooting but there was some question as
00:46:32
to who the [ __ ] she was when they arrived in Mexico Sharon and Frank checked into the hotel that they were at
00:46:39
as Mr and Mrs Frank Pugi but her identification said otherwise so a representative from the embassy told
00:46:46
reporters we were a little confused about this girl but Kenny was the name on her tourist
00:46:51
card and when they did confirm her identity officials learned that she was due in court just a few weeks later to
00:46:57
stand trial for the murder of her husband a date that now she would not be making my God so even though she
00:47:05
maintained that she'd only shot Francisco in self-defense Sharon also made several unexpected comments to the
00:47:11
authorities at the embassy including telling one man I've shot men before and managed to get out of it what the [ __ ]
00:47:20
she I don't think she gave a [ __ ] at this point she's just like I just I shoot men on a regular basis and I get
00:47:26
through it so I'm not really worried about this it's kind of my thing damn it's like gir you're in an unknown
00:47:31
territory right now so a few days later once they were confident that Rua would live Mexican authorities announced plans
00:47:37
to charge and try Sharon Kenny for the murder of Francisco ordones whom they believe she murdered in an attempted
00:47:43
robbery ah that makes sense I believe too she was running low on cash it's clear what she was doing yeah now while
00:47:50
officers from the Mexican Secret Service investigated the shooting Sharon was taken to uh lumur prison in Mexico City
00:47:58
where she was to be held until the trial now unlike the trials in the United States she had no support in Mexico and
00:48:05
her only connection was with her Embassy appointed lawyer heino La heini Lara on
00:48:12
September 26th 1964 both Sharon and Frank Pugi were arraigned on murder charges I don't know if it was because
00:48:20
like some kind like they thought a plot a conspiracy exactly uh later the charges against Frank were dropped and
00:48:27
he was deported back to the US but Sharon continued to be held at that prison DN and she was [ __ ] furious
00:48:34
that she was being denied bail for the shooting now Having learned of her arrest and imprison uh imprisonment the
00:48:41
Mexican press dubbed her La pisera Ah that's where it comes from which translates in uh to the holster in
00:48:47
English okay which I thought it would translate to the pistol but it's like the pistol holder exactly holster yeah
00:48:53
exactly the holder now having learned of the shooting and arrest authorities in Independence Missouri contacted Mexico
00:49:00
Secret Service to request that the pistol used in the shooting be sent to the US for tests Mexican authorities
00:49:07
declined the request citing the open case but they did agree to send spent shells to detectives in Missouri when
00:49:15
the shells were tested by a ballistics expert at the crime lab quote they announced the spent bullets were
00:49:21
identical to those found under the body of Patricia Jones in in and under the body of Patricia Jones I knew it but
00:49:29
unfortunately at that point Sharon had already been acquitted of Jones Double Jeopardy and [ __ ] so the prosecutor had
00:49:36
no choice but to publicly declare that the murder had been solved and the and the case was closed the [ __ ] Double
00:49:42
Jeopardy of it all so Sharon finally went on trial in a Mexican Court in the fall of 1965 where she pleaded not
00:49:49
guilty to a myriad of charges homicide causing bodily injuries illegal use of firearms and possession of false
00:49:58
documents damn in her defense heno laara or Lara told the three judge panel that
00:50:04
Sharon had fallen asleep in the bed and was awoken when Francisco climbed on top
00:50:09
of her in which she believed was an attempted sexual assault but the panel of Judges felt like the evidence didn't
00:50:15
support that claim and she was found guilty of simple homicide and sentenced to 10 years I was like that's all you
00:50:22
get for homicide um at the she was sentenced at the newly constructed women's prison in I hope I say this
00:50:29
right isap isap Palapa which is just outside of Mexico City now after she served the
00:50:37
sentence she would be deported back to the United States so news of Sharon's imprisonment of course spread around the
00:50:42
Midwest and the Southwest which prompted tons of news agencies to send reporters
00:50:47
to Mexico to interview her and each time she maintained her innocence and stuck to her story assuming that she would
00:50:53
soon be free on appeal and back in the the US it's unclear if she knew this or not but her sentence carried the
00:51:00
provision that she had to serve 2third of it before she was even eligible for any kind of appeal DN in her case that
00:51:07
would have meant she had to serve 6 and a half years before being eligible whoa now in an interview with a reporter from
00:51:13
Missouri Sharon spent most of the time talking about how much she hated the food at the prison how the quote
00:51:18
language barrier frightened her and how the other inmates had stolen all of her personal belongings within days of her
00:51:24
arrival which I think is funny sucks sucks to suck there was a ton of interest in the case just after the
00:51:30
conviction but the Press coverage slowly faded as the months passed and by the winter of
00:51:35
1966 her name was hardly appearing in the US papers the next time she would come up in the news was in an interview
00:51:43
with the Kansas City Star in March of 1969 by that point she'd settled into life at the prison and told the reporter
00:51:50
Kevin Kellan that she stopped planning for the future he said she reminded me of a waitress you'd find at a truck stop
00:51:57
she liked to talk and she gave you the impression she'd been around damn I was like o Kevin who Kevin Kevin such a
00:52:05
Kevin thing to say it truly is now despite what she told old Kevin there it turned out that she hadn't exactly given
00:52:12
up on her future entirely something told me that on the evening of December 7th 1969 after serving five of the 10e s
00:52:21
five years of the 10year sentence 29-year-old Sharon attended a movie in the prison recreation hall later that
00:52:29
evening when guards made their rounds to do bed checks they discovered Sharon was
00:52:34
missing [ __ ] you they discovered that she was missing officials searched the prison and its grounds all evening but
00:52:42
turned up no signs of Sharon Kenny and eventually were forced to make a public statement to alert the press and
00:52:49
citizens that she had escaped she had escaped prison in Mexico City shut up and Mexico City police and prison
00:52:57
officials had absolutely no [ __ ] clue how she managed to escape from high security modern prison saying quote or
00:53:06
saying only it was like newly constructed newly constructed and like a a high security prison yeah they said
00:53:12
she quote probably bribed several jail wardens to Let Her Go honestly I believe probably an intensive multi-agency
00:53:19
search was mounted for her covering a wide radius around the prison but after weeks of turning up legit zero evidence
00:53:27
authorities announced in mid December that they would be easing up the hunt like it was costing too much money a
00:53:32
spokesperson for Mexico City police told reporters our department will continue to hold the case open until Mrs Kenny is
00:53:39
found but we are not any closer to finding Mrs Kenny in Mexico City than the day she escaped today more than 50
00:53:47
years after her escape from prison Sharon remains a fugitive in Mexico and the United States and the authorities
00:53:53
are not any closer to to finding her than when she did Escape what the [ __ ] now with each
00:54:01
passing year it's it becomes more and more unlikely that she's still alive she's like 83 at this point she' be 83
00:54:06
this year yeah but if she were apprehended today she would still face charges in Mexico for the escape and she
00:54:13
would face charges in the United States for the murder of James Kenny but she has never been
00:54:21
found that woman just [ __ ] barreled through life causing [ __ ] Havoc havoc and There
00:54:32
