00:01:21
back in the day tonight on statute of limitations we have a girl whose little party plan went viral and she lost all
00:01:28
control and pretty sure we were there I mean that party was lit I had to get out
00:01:34
of there and we have a genius like me who taught himself how to fly but things flew off the rail when he decided to
00:01:43
actually steal a plane who does that and way guys the woman we're about to hear
00:01:48
from knows a thing or two about throwing a party and that's location location
00:01:53
location meet Chloe I'm Chloe and in 2010 I threw a massive party at a Billionaire's house while
00:02:06
they were out of town and I got away with it so I was fresh out of college and I
00:02:12
worked for a real estate company my job was I would get the keys to the houses um I would you know coordinate letting
00:02:21
people in to clean them to do the staging all of that so this house had just been staged and we were getting
00:02:30
ready to do some showings and so I had the keys to this multi-million dollar mansion this house is awesome it has an
00:02:39
ocean view over the cliff side and gigantic pool hot tub everything multiple bedrooms multiple bathrooms
00:02:49
marble on the floor on the inside updated kitchen grand staircase chandeliers topnotch appliances
00:02:57
everything you can imagine a $9 million home looking like this had it you know I was young and me and my
00:03:06
friends still really liked to party and so the owners were out of town I knew they were going to be out of town for a
00:03:12
few more weeks I thought I'll just have some friends over right I'll invite
00:03:18
about 10 15 people we'll have a good time and the next day I'll pay for cleaning people to come by clean it up
00:03:26
it'll be fine no problem I was not worried about it I'd grown plenty of parties for my friends before and I knew
00:03:34
we were all responsible so we get there and we're just in the kitchen my friends and I
00:03:40
were drinking a few hours goes by we order food and my one friend asks if he can invite some friends so I say yeah
00:03:51
and then another friend is like oh if that's cool I'm just going to text my
00:03:54
friend they live really close so I say that's fine you know I I trust my friends
00:04:00
well one thing led to another and 50 people show up few hours later and I start to notice a lot more people
00:04:12
are there there's not a line for the bathroom and I'm starting to get a little nervous but I'm also pretty drunk
00:04:19
so the nerves in me and like the responsible person in me is kind of like put to the Wayside everybody's having a
00:04:26
good time nothing really crazy is going on and then it got real there's hundreds of people there
00:04:35
like you see Santa Barbara kids heard about this party and now it is absolutely out of control it was just
00:04:40
like thing after thing people were dancing in like this main foer area the sidey was really really muddy people had
00:04:49
been slipping in that sidey and then they were tracking mud in through the house so there is mud everywhere the
00:04:56
amount of things that were knocked over bases lamps alcohol spilled all over the
00:05:02
furniture all over these nice cream carpets the bathrooms are a total mess the bedrooms are now ruined I'm sure
00:05:11
people were stealing things from the bedrooms nothing was locked up there's glass in the pool people are having sex
00:05:17
in the hot tub I walk into the kitchen there are these two guys and they're fighting each other so then there's
00:05:24
holes in the drywall that's sort of when I lost it I'm essentially hyperventilating and I I ran outside I
00:05:31
found my friend Claire and I'm just crying to Claire at this point because my parents help me get this job I'm
00:05:38
about to lose this job it's our family friends so I can't call them I can't let
00:05:44
them know that I did this and what am I going to call the cops and then I'm going to get in trouble I'm going to be
00:05:50
the one responsible everything's running through my mind am I going to go to jail
00:05:54
you know like and of course I knew that these billionaires were going to press charges because I'm ruining their house
00:06:02
they're trying to sell this house and I'm ruining it so not only am I ruining
00:06:08
my career at this point I'm scared that I'm going to go to jail for years I'm
00:06:12
ruining my life so I don't know what to do sounds like my kind of party right
00:06:19
there guys but for Chloe opening up a stranger Mansion could get her locked up so what's a girl to do here offer up the
00:06:29
old ultimate lie of a lifetime we'll have Khloe's crafty plan to escape prosecution next on statute of
00:06:39
limitations welcome back to statute of limitations our girl Chloe is in a bad spot after a party she threw in a
00:06:46
Billionaire's Mansion got mad crazy this house is wrecked her career might be too
00:06:53
at the end of the day guys when you hear those Sirens there are two choices fight
00:06:58
or fight flight and best believe it's not good to fight the cops we're running I just want to run away I I
00:07:11
don't want to face this at all I I'm even scared to start telling people to
00:07:16
leave because I don't want them to hurt me everybody is really really drunk so I
00:07:22
do the only thing that I can think of which is I'm going to call the cops on
00:07:28
this part party and before the cops get here I'm leaving and so I call 911 I
00:07:34
tell them that a frat from yussi Santa Barbara is throwing a party at this mansion and the cops show up and before
00:07:42
they do I'm out of there I think I'm in the clear but I wake up on Sunday morning and I
00:07:50
realized the coat that I was wearing that day I left at the house and this is like my favorite leather jacket I wear
00:07:58
this Le jacket everywhere it has like this really specific design on the shoulder and I'm texting my friends if
00:08:07
they have pictures of me tagged in this jacket to take that photo off the internet I am really nervous that this
00:08:14
jacket traces me to this house my plan is I'm going to go into work early I'm going to return the keys
00:08:21
into we had this like room that had keys and binders for each of our properties so I'm going to put the keys there and
00:08:28
then I'm going to go leave I'm going to go to the coffee shop and I'm going to
00:08:31
show up back to work a little later after I know a lot of people are already there that way they don't think I got in
00:08:36
early and I did this so I show up to work you know I'm trying to play it cool
00:08:41
I'm trying to pretend like I'm not involved I wasn't there my boss is like
00:08:46
do you know what happened at the Ocean View Estate House I just say no I was actually going to pick up the keys today
00:08:53
and get it ready for some of the showings we have later that week they go in the room they check the keys are
00:08:58
there so my plan for Monday morning work I I'm actually feeling a little better at this
00:09:05
point until my boss tells me that it was $100,000 worth of damage and my heart sank at that point my company is losing
00:09:16
this listing so my boss is pissed and there's going to be an investigation I
00:09:22
knew if there was an investigation that they would figure it out that it was me so I I was Sweating Bullets I was
00:09:30
freaking out I barely made it through that workday without crying I have to figure out what I'm going to do I I I
00:09:37
can't stay at this job they're going to figure out it was me but I'm thinking if
00:09:42
I quit my job tomorrow it's going to be super obvious that I'm somehow involved
00:09:47
like they can trace it back to me I needed some other excuse and I remember my grandmother lives in boa Ron
00:09:56
I I'll say I need to go visit my grandom and to spend time with her she's getting
00:10:00
older and so I call the only person who I know will keep my secret my best friend my best friend is from West Palm
00:10:08
Beach Florida she moved back there after college and you know she's like come
00:10:13
here you can live with me we'll figure it out we'll get you a job you know
00:10:17
she'll she'll help me I could sell this story now I'm just trying to figure out
00:10:22
do I quit on Tuesday it's Tuesday too soon so I go in on Tuesday and I have my
00:10:29
friend call me when I'm at work and I we pretend that my grandmother is being
00:10:34
rushed to the hospital and I'm crying at work you know I'm really pulling these
00:10:39
crocodile tears in front of everybody and it worked it worked everybody saw me cry at work I left early that day
00:10:49
pretending my grandmother was really sick and going into the hospital and then on Wednesday I
00:10:55
quit I moved to Florida that weekend and and it's been a few weeks I haven't
00:11:01
heard from anybody I'm feeling actually like I'm getting away with this and then
00:11:06
my phone rangs and it's my boss Jeff and freaking out so I I don't answer it
00:11:14
I don't know what I don't know what he's going to say to me and at this point
00:11:18
I've already lied so much I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to remember the
00:11:22
last thing I told him and I didn't pick up the phone thankfully he left a message it was something really simple
00:11:27
like he needed my address for my last paycheck and I was in Florida so again I felt like my story checked out and I
00:11:35
sent him my Florida address and it was all good and uh he ended up asking how is your grandmother doing I saw that you
00:11:44
posted and so my whole plan moving to Florida actually worked out for me and that's how I got away with
00:11:51
it so now it's been you know 10 years statue of limitations is up and now when I look back at it yeah it's
00:11:59
a pretty cool story that I I'm excited I get to tell and uh sorry Jeff it was me
00:12:06
um but yeah through a pretty sweet party so in the end Chloe could have been relocated to a California Jam but
00:12:15
thanks to her quick wit she was able to move on with a record a lot cleaner than
00:12:20
the house that she left now when it comes to criminal Behavior some dudes are operating at a
00:12:26
higher level just ask next per he flew in the face of fate and right now he's
00:12:32
free to Air at all meet Jared I'm Jared and back in 2000 I stole a plane a few
00:12:41
times and I never got caught the statute of limitations is up so now I can tell my story well you know I always wanted
00:12:49
to fly a plane after I saw Top Gun as a kid I was like that's that seems really
00:12:54
cool but uh you know I was broke you know my mom was just a tail waitress at the Luxor we lived outside
00:13:01
Vegas I couldn't afford flight lessons so it's like what 100 bucks an hour
00:13:05
something like that we didn't have 100 bucks to our name the thing about me is
00:13:08
I'm a pretty quick learner it's not hard to memorize things I have a photographic
00:13:13
memory let's it's not really test you here okay 1980 who won the World Series
00:13:18
Phillies okay who won the first Super Bowl Packers or a Chiefs you remember the score what was the score it was uh
00:13:31
[Music] 3510 I to double check it yes Super Bowl one it was was it 3510 3510 nice that's what it's all about see now
00:13:46
give me in a cockpit so uh I got a library card I took out some books started reading about how to fly Cessnas
00:13:54
small planes and uh you know the craziest thing was I went to this yard sale and they had these VHS tapes Learn
00:14:00
to Fly this is before YouTube this is back you know the late '90s I was learning this stuff I was 18 years old
00:14:07
people were like oh this kid's just curious you know then what I did was I actually built like a model Flight Deck
00:14:15
I took like a big piece of uh oak tag and I like would draw the instrument panel because I wanted to get used to it
00:14:21
you know I wasn't going to get any real flight simulation I could just sit there
00:14:25
holding like a piece of cardboard with my you know my six pack my altimer and my my attitude indicator and my you know
00:14:34
uh flight speed indicator the needle ball all these terms I'm trying to learn
00:14:38
them and uh you know I just kept kept pretending and uh finally I was like you know pretending is not good enough I got
00:14:45
to get in a real plane and I knew about this uh private Airfield about 10 miles from where we lived it was this Rich
00:14:53
dude he was like a I think he owned a casino maybe owned a pro sports team or something I know I don't know but he had
00:14:58
a private jet and he had a private Airfield and all he had around it was a chain link fence no security after I
00:15:05
kept uh learning and studying one night I just went over there and I looked around no one was
00:15:11
there so I climbed that little fence this is pre9 11 there was no no security these good these airfields were just
00:15:18
unmanned I ran over I looked in it looked just like what I had designed there was the the instrument
00:15:25
panel there was a throttle here was the Yoke you know I just kind of started doing it I pushed in the throttle we
00:15:33
started speeding up you know and I was thinking it's like uh Back to the Future
00:15:37
you know you have to hit a certain speed before you can really take off I was going 55 knots which is about I don't
00:15:45
know maybe 70 80 M an hour and I start pulling back on the Yol Airborne baby it was unbelievable I
00:15:53
I was like should I just put it right back down right now but the air the strip was ending I had to keep going you
00:15:58
know I I knew I was going to have to go up and at least circle around but once I
00:16:01
got it up I was like I'm not circling around I'm going for a little Joy Ride
00:16:05
in this thing and the view the view of the Desert from I mean I was up maybe only like 1,000 ft but I'd never seen a
00:16:11
view like that just circled around for about 10 minutes Cruise back down now the landing this is what IID studied
00:16:18
that the landing was the the challenging part you have to get real low to come in
00:16:23
a certain angle get to like 10 ft above the ground and just keep idling back throttling back so you basically stall
00:16:29
it out nose up tail down and I think I pulled it back too much cuz I thought I was I was hitting the tail on the back I
00:16:37
was like stealing this plan is one thing but wrecking it myself up that's a whole
00:16:41
another story but I landed a the landing gear touchdown I rolled it back to right
00:16:46
where I took it and that's what it hit me I never even checked the fuel gauge
00:16:51
on this thing cuz I could have ran had a fuel up there as I landed I finally looked and realized the thing still had
00:16:56
a you know half a tank so I was cool I just rolled it back to where I got it I was up in the air for maybe 30 minutes
00:17:03
but my heart was pounding through my chest it was the most exhilarating feeling I ever had and I just climbed
00:17:09
that fence ran back to where I parked my car about a mile away cruise home I couldn't sleep that night I was so
00:17:16
excited about what I had done you know and I felt like I had to tell someone about it but I was like this wasn't just
00:17:20
like taking a car for a dry right this is like federal crime I think so I didn't tell anyone except my one buddy
00:17:27
this guy was like you know skate rag guy you know he loved things with wheels then things got
00:17:34
complicated this just got real for Jared I mean listen the stakes are Skyhigh right now okay he's flying a stolen
00:17:42
airplane with the zero training this guy right here was really rolling a dice and
00:17:47
we all know he just escaped some prison time but will he crash and burn in the process answers are all coming up next
00:17:57
on statute of limitation way back in the day our boy Jared stole a plane not once not twice but three
00:18:06
times this dude actually had the confidence to fly a plane with very little experience now talk about a
00:18:13
Flight Risk now Jared's about to land in a whole heap of trouble just watch this
00:18:19
I couldn't sleep that night I was so excited about what I had done you know and I felt like I had to tell someone
00:18:23
about it but I was like this wasn't just like taking a car for a joy ride this is
00:18:27
like Federal CRI I think so I didn't tell anyone except my one buddy this guy
00:18:32
was like a you know skate rat guy you know he loved things with wheels so he wanted to get in something with wheels
00:18:38
and then go wheels up so he insisted to come with me the next week when I tried it again but uh he was more of a
00:18:46
daredevil I mean what I was doing was crazy enough but what this guy wanted me to do was go way high like 1,500 feet up
00:18:52
and then dive it back down strong to like 500 ft I mean I was doing it cuz I didn't want got to think I was a coward
00:19:00
what I didn't realize was this dude had brought a backpack filled with water
00:19:04
balloons that he had filled with paint and when we got about 500 ft above these houses he was leaning out there was a
00:19:10
little window he opened it and he was leaning out throwing the water balloons down he wasn't hitting anything but he
00:19:15
was just a he's a crazy dude I was like we got to get back before someone looks
00:19:19
up sees that we're doing this and you know calls the cops on us cuz I'm trying
00:19:22
to do this stealthy I want to get back to the the Airfield land it get the hell out of there another like 20 30 minutes
00:19:28
but he's insisting we we cruise around again we probably spent about an hour up
00:19:32
there it was getting dark by the time we landed and there are lights and everything but I'm trying to do this by
00:19:36
you know eyesight so we got there it was getting pretty Dusky we landed again not
00:19:42
very good with the tail I was leaning back too much I think I kind of almost you know bounced the uh tail but it was
00:19:48
smoother than the first time and I was like I'm getting better at this man and
00:19:51
again the thrill was still very strong and I was like you know I just got to got to come back and keep doing this I
00:19:56
got to get better so we went back you know brought my buddy again told no water balloons this time we're just
00:20:03
going to go up you know maybe try to get up 1,500 2,000 ft I don't know we'll see
00:20:08
I got to get that get that Adrenaline Rush again but I had a bad feeling about this one I don't know I was like yeah we
00:20:14
got lucky doing it twice a third time can I really get away with this again but uh we were up for only about 20 30
00:20:21
minutes it was getting late as we were coming in for the landing I noticed something was a little different we're
00:20:26
getting super low you know this time I had the tail nose just right was just about to idle out the engine touch down
00:20:33
gently and then I saw him three cop cars over by the hanger waiting for us I don't know how they knew but I got the
00:20:44
hell out of there man I just you know pulled back took it right back off and got the hell out of there now I didn't
00:20:51
know where I was going to go but I knew I wasn't going to land there so we just kept going man I tell
00:20:58
you when I think about that I mean the view from up there was gorgeous but the panic attack that I was going
00:21:08
through was not worth it man my heart was beating through my chest my body was just just laughing he was enjoying it I
00:21:16
mean there are some other Landing strips near there but there are people there you know I can't go there so we just
00:21:22
kept cruising West I was a little bit West of Vegas there I noticed it was a nice flat
00:21:28
land there so uh I'm trying to touchdown but it's bumpy it's flat but
00:21:34
it's bumpy I'm nervous as hell man I mean it's getting dark there's no
00:21:40
lights my hands are sweaty my heart's beating through my chest but I saw a nice piece of land we touched it down we
00:21:48
landed that plane I don't know how I did it we landed it and got the hell out of
00:21:52
there ran ran for about 3 miles then we saw Blue Diamond Road we we knew that would take us back into Vegas to start
00:22:00
hiking man hiked all night was freezing cold but by the time the sun came up I was back in Vegas and Home
00:22:09
Free I was young I was stupid I was Reckless I wouldn't do it again but the statute of limitations is over I didn't
00:22:18
get caught it was awesome Jared landed on a wing and a prayer and while he could have also
00:22:26
landed in jail he stayed off the cops radar long enough to outrun the law which propelled him right here in front
00:22:33
