foreign [Music] the individual heard in today's trailer is certified POS and struggle rapper
00:06:31
Rambo his real name is Bryce Jamar Rhodes and that is him calling from a jail cell as he is awaiting trial and
00:06:40
someone was dumb enough to pay 9.99 for this call and in the even more bizarre Act of brazen lack of human decency and
00:06:49
compassion for the community of Louisville some nudnick put this phone call up on YouTube and posted free Bryce
00:06:58
Rhodes no thank you now one does not need to have too much of an imagination to understand the phrase struggle
00:07:05
wrapper but because the Urban Dictionary is equal parts Brilliance and hilarity here is their definition a struggle
00:07:13
rapper is a guy who takes rapping super seriously and thinks he is amazing but his actual skills are average at best we
00:07:22
all know a couple and now unfortunately you know one more but as much as we all would like for it to be this is not a
00:07:31
hip-hop show in fact they tell me that it is a true crime show so Captain let's go back five years this is May of 2016
00:07:39
and beautiful Louisville Kentucky where we have two young Brothers Living with their mom Marie Wren the boys Larry
00:07:48
Ordway age 14 and Maurice Gordon age 16 had different fathers but shared a brotherly bond in a close relationship
00:07:57
with their mother they were in many respects normal kids who like to have fun and hang out with their friends both
00:08:05
boys were doing well in school at Olmsted Academy North and the family was looking forward to both boys upcoming
00:08:12
graduation from the eighth grade but instead of graduating from the eighth grade and moving on to bigger and better
00:08:19
things in high school Marie would be planning their funerals on Saturday May May 21st according to the boy's mother
00:08:27
Maurice and Larry left the home and they never came back but these two young men
00:08:33
they're 14 and 16 and they're hanging out with Bryce which is in his mid-20s at this point on Sunday May 22nd this is
00:08:41
around 12 30 p.m a little girl riding her bike in the Shawnee neighborhood of Louisville saw something awful two
00:08:49
bodies were lying in a circle of burned grass and an abandoned lot on River Park
00:08:54
Drive near 40th Street this was not the neighborhood where the boys lived with their mother to give you a flavor for
00:09:02
the area one resident said to WLKY jelly to see the CSI truck I knew it was something a little bit more
00:09:13
serious than just two people being shot along with police the arson unit responded to this scene because of the
00:09:22
attempt being made to burn the bodies it was apparent to anyone who saw the bodies that they were murdered victims
00:09:30
Witnesses described the scene as horrific one officer was seen shaking his head as he covered the bodies with a
00:09:38
sheet probably because it was apparent to him how young these victims were crime scene investigators determined
00:09:46
that the victims were murdered elsewhere and then dumped in this vacant lot the bodies had no ID on them the police had
00:09:54
no reports of missing teens in the area police issued a statement that two teen males were found dead and Foul Play was
00:10:03
evident they released sketches of the victims on Monday night a faculty member of the
00:10:10
boys school then recognizes the sketches they knew both brothers Larry and Maurice
00:10:18
these two brothers did not come to school on that Monday so this faculty member called it into police on May 24th
00:10:26
it was reported that a Louisville woman had come forward to claim the two bodies
00:10:32
found as her sons but the victim's names were not released until May 26th of course the mom was Marie Wren and the
00:10:41
boys the victims were Larry and Maurice her two sons well their mom is going to be told I believe on Tuesday that it's
00:10:49
possible that her boys were found and found in this area yeah this is a weird situation Captain because it's one of
00:10:57
those rare situations where two people go missing they're killed their bodies are found and recovered and
00:11:06
it's not until a couple days later that they're claimed by a family member in this case being
00:11:12
their mother but they were never reported missing at any time yeah I don't want to throw her under the bus
00:11:18
but when your kids don't show up to school on Monday and they don't come back home
00:11:24
Sunday night or Monday at what point are you going to call them in missing yourself especially when they're missing
00:11:31
school on that Monday so Marie the mother told the media that she learned that the two bodies were found they
00:11:38
could be her boys she learned this on that Tuesday they had left the house with friends on Saturday night that's a
00:11:45
long period for you not to know where your kids are exactly you have to wonder if this was a
00:11:50
regular thing in the household to just not know where the kids were or what they were up to Marie said in an
00:11:57
interview quote everybody knows them they got killed over nothing Larry played football and he was on honor roll
00:12:03
in school and Maurice loved music he was into the music industry and they were great kids they didn't take from nobody
00:12:10
she added she pleaded with anyone who might know anything about the case to please come forward now let's take a
00:12:20
step back here captain and look at what was going on in Maurice and Larry's lives at the time that they first go
00:12:26
missing and then unfortunately later found to be murdered victims as we said the boys behaved themselves at school
00:12:34
and were both considered to be very good students both were in the eighth grade at Olmstead Academy North and teachers
00:12:41
who spoke about them said that they were in fact good kids but behind the scenes
00:12:47
I think it's a whole bit of a different story here and I'm not saying that they weren't good kids but what I am saying
00:12:54
is we do know that Larry and Maurice were running around with a bad crowd right well and also you're saying
00:13:01
they're in the same grade one's 14 and 116. it's not clear to me that that jumped off the page as well for me
00:13:09
Captain and it's not clear to me why that is what it is but that is in fact the case or was the case five years ago
00:13:17
well just to be clear we don't we're not trying to bash these victims we're just
00:13:21
trying to state that they these are the surroundings this is the environment they were in and I'm still in the eighth
00:13:29
grade as well here Captain so I cannot those in Glass Houses right so here's a quote from um one of the detectives
00:13:36
working the case said quote when you have young kids that are in their early teens I mean you can have really good
00:13:43
kids and they get thrown in with the same crowd with a bad crowd this is this could happen to any kid this is from
00:13:52
homicide detective Todd Kissinger this is what he told the CBS News down there in Louisville Kentucky all it takes is
00:14:01
for you to be hanging out with the wrong crowd for a week for a couple days bad things
00:14:08
can happen when you're hanging out with bad people and bad things can happen quick my point is it doesn't matter if
00:14:14
they were hanging out with the wrong crowd for two years or two days bad stuff can happen I have a CREDO that
00:14:21
I've lived My Life by if you hang out with bad people and are around bad things and do bad things long enough
00:14:27
something bad will happen to you it's it's just how things go now it seems that Larry and Maurice got caught up in
00:14:35
the sort of gangster lifestyle that looks glamorous to some kids their social media pages are filled with
00:14:44
photos of the two boys posing with automatic weapons and assault rifles smoking cigars counting large amounts of
00:14:52
cash and you know trying to look cool I guess for the the camera the disturbing thing is it's pretty
00:15:00
clear that their mother well she knew what the boys were up to in their free time she knew that they
00:15:06
were hanging out with a bad crowd she knew that they were doing things that were these unsavory things on camera and
00:15:13
then putting these videos together on their social media pages and we know that she knew this because she is in
00:15:19
some of the pictures with them holding guns in a in a tough looking pose and is even posing with her little daughter in
00:15:27
all blue clothing and flags and such that's interesting yeah and then she went on to tell
00:15:34
wdrb.com quote my sons were trying to Earn Stripes in the blood gang and they had to put in work if they didn't put in
00:15:44
work they were knocked off and that's why they were knocked off because they were scared to put in the work end quote
00:15:52
now later Marie backtracked saying it was all a front so her boys could seem cool and her mom this would be the
00:16:01
grandmother Debbie Duran told the media that the guns in the photos were just toys I don't know either way I'm gonna
00:16:08
go with the grandmother give her the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe they were toys but either way it's it's
00:16:15
what are you trying to what are you trying to achieve by posting pictures like that well exactly
00:16:23
it's not something that I want to see but uh you know I have to remind myself I was a teenager and I did some dumb
00:16:31
stuff in my teenage years yeah we've done we both have done some really stupid things I think most people do or
00:16:38
at least that's what I tell myself to feel better about myself one also it it would seem to me
00:16:45
well I'm assuming that they're being raised in a house by a single mother so I didn't know that growing up I don't
00:16:53
know what that would be like and a lot of kids and these types of environments feel like going with a gang
00:17:04
sometimes they feel like there's no option if you don't go with the gang then every
00:17:11
gang is out to get you so at least if you team up with somebody somebody's protecting you well and I
00:17:18
think what we're going to see here and something you pointed out earlier Captain these are young impressionable
00:17:24
boys who are hanging out with an adult that they should not be hanging out with and they're being led by this guy and
00:17:32
led down the wrong path and that's for certain now according to the Courier Journal
00:17:38
what they said of the mother said quote she came under attack on social media for photos of her sons holding guns on
00:17:45
her Facebook page which referenced a gang her family insists that the teens weren't in a gang and were just
00:17:52
pretending to be tough end quote so regardless whatever the truth it's clear that Marie did know who her boys were
00:17:59
hanging out with and this was in fact the wrong crowd and one loser in particular was 25 year old aspiring
00:18:07
rapper Rambo as he called himself better known as Bryce Rhodes both boys had appeared in Rambo's music videos with
00:18:17
references to guns sex and violence the boys thought Rambo was going to make them famous as he got famous he told
00:18:27
them his music videos would make them Stars eventually and he bought them clothes and food and would have them
00:18:34
ride around with him in his car but then they like listened to his music again they're teenagers they they're
00:18:44
they're young teenagers and they're they're just not making good decisions I mean listen to the first line of that
00:18:50
rap he he's in prison he said he's going to the jewelry shop yeah I'm going to the jeweler bro like yeah you know no
00:18:57
you're not but you're not you can you can say whatever you want to say but you're not hey maybe he is going to like
00:19:04
the prison Jeweler maybe there's a prison handcuffs or jewelry in this guy's mind yeah this guy's all day he's
00:19:12
a baller right and you're right I that's funny that you say that Captain did they
00:19:17
listen to his music yeah because it ain't good yeah and I'm I'm just not a fan of
00:19:23
Mumble rap in general like when when the rapper sounds like they're just mumbling
00:19:29
yeah or or the ones that are just that it's all braggadocious there's no there's no story there's no Rhyme or
00:19:36
Reason um you know that to me it's it's nonsense and and I would say that I'm A hip-hop fan I mean I like Tupac Biggie I
00:19:46
like Jay-Z I like Mos Def black thought the Beastie Boys I feel like those guys are at least saying something they're
00:19:54
not just mumbling well there's there's good kinds of music and bad kinds of music you know in all genres and
00:20:01
um the thing is again remember this dude is 25 they're 14 and 16. I remember when
00:20:09
I was 14 there was a couple dudes I hung out with simply because they had a car right and in hindsight these guys were
00:20:17
idiots that I were that I was hanging out with simply because they had a car so you can only imagine what their the
00:20:24
Hocus Pocus that he's putting on these young dudes you know he's 25 he's got a car he's got tattoos he's saying hey I'm
00:20:32
going to be famous he's probably lying about who he is to them making himself seem bigger and more important than what
00:20:39
he actually is and that they're young they don't know any better they believe him and so they're tagging along they're
00:20:46
along for the ride so to speak well right but that's why he's hanging around with 14 and 16 year old kids he can't
00:20:52
nobody he can't impress anybody his own age right so he's like oh I gotta impress these kids now while we're on
00:21:00
the subject of them hanging out with Bryce Rhodes we have uh their mother on record saying the following about Bryce
00:21:07
he goes through the neighborhoods and he just picks up teenagers he sees and asks
00:21:13
them you want to sell this you want to sell that he kept sneaking and picking up my sons he bribed them with designer
00:21:22
clothes and shoes he would even take them out to eat buy them food her mother she sounds like a pedo
00:21:29
is what he sounds like to me yeah that's true you know they it's I mean think about how many of these serial killer
00:21:37
petos that we've talked about that go around the neighborhood find the poor kids and go hey you want some beer do
00:21:44
you want some marijuana do you oh you want some new sneakers I can help you out yeah there was a guy down in Texas
00:21:50
Dean Coral that uh made a whole lifestyle out of that for for years yeah um and then he was a shitty rapper too
00:22:00
yes yes he was the grandmother Debbie who who I am a big fan of you know if we're going to be picking sides here and
00:22:06
getting people's back here I will I want to be upfront about that I'm a fan of Debbie wrens she is on record saying the
00:22:13
same thing about Bryce he lured her words her he lured these kids in by buying them shoes taking them to the
00:22:21
mall taking them out to eat and she says yeah he was a predator hold on I'm going
00:22:26
to defend the mom a little bit because here's what we're so quick to do uh this these kids were in a bad situation their
00:22:34
mom didn't know what was going on look at this age 14 and 16 they're probably bigger than their mom they're probably
00:22:42
taller than their mom she can't physically control them can't maybe physically tell them not to do this or
00:22:48
not to do that I don't know that that's the case here right but what I'm saying is what never mentioned and the story is
00:22:54
where the hell where the both of these boys fathers you know so let's not put the let's not put uh too much weight uh
00:23:02
onto their mom because because their their fathers that obviously weren't helping keeping these kids in better
00:23:10
environments it's it's on them as well well the mother went so far as to say that Rambo used young kids to do his
00:23:18
dirty work on the streets and by the time her boys discovered how dangerous he really was she says it was too late
00:23:27
so Marie told the police that this is what happened that Bryce Rhodes and two other teenagers came and picked up
00:23:37
her two sons on Saturday night they were going to a party this is what they told
00:23:43
her we're going to a party on Sunday she called one of the phones one of their phones looking for them
00:23:50
because they didn't come home now she didn't know it but they were actually already dead at this point one
00:23:58
of the teenage boys that was with Bryce in her two sons answered one of her son's phones
00:24:07
and he at the time happened to be in the car with Bryce and he said to this teenager tells Marie
00:24:15
that we went to the store and we'll be right back so Marie knows not only Bryce Rhodes by
00:24:23
name but also knows the names of both of these teenagers that arrived with him to
00:24:28
pick up her sons on that Saturday they're missing they don't come home and on Sunday she's calling their phones one
00:24:35
of these teenagers picks up gives an excuse and now we still have two teenagers who have not come home right
00:24:43
but at that moment you call cops you call the cops and you can say look my sons were supposed to be with these two
00:24:50
gentlemen or these three gentlemen my Ben and that's what you do yeah my son's left with an adult and have not come
00:24:58
home like they were supposed to I'm calling this in because it's it's an issue and so armed with this information this
00:25:07
is what she tells the police once the bodies were found now about two and a half weeks before Maurice and Larry were
00:25:15
killed there was another murder in Louisville and one that was unsolved at the time
00:25:22
that her two sons went missing media reports said that on May 4th around 12 30 a.m 40 year old Christopher Jones was
00:25:33
found having been shot in the Torso in the 800 block of South 41st Street now Medics arrived on the scene and tried to
00:25:42
save Christopher Jones but he died during surgery at University Hospital just after 4 30 a.m this was the city's
00:25:52
38th homicide of that year when the Louisville Metro Police spokesperson reported this to the media the following
00:26:01
afternoon he said that there were no suspects at that time okay so what does this have to do with
00:26:10
our two teenage victims well in the course of their investigation the Louisville PD investigation into
00:26:20
Bryce Rhodes after getting his name from the mother police got a statement from one of Rhodes accomplices that Maurice
00:26:29
and Larry were in the vehicle when Bryce Rhodes shot Christopher Jones so this unsolved homicide for May 4th
00:26:39
they're now getting information that the two other murder victims were in a car with this Bryce Rhodes
00:26:48
character when he when Bryce Rhodes shot and killed Christopher Jones [Music] all right
00:27:12
foreign [Music] we're back you feel the animals Cheers Cheers captain now if you are Louisville PD if
00:27:30
you're a detective working one or both of these homicide cases you have an interesting situation here
00:27:38
now don't you because you have someone telling you that these murders might all be connected and the center point here
00:27:46
might be this Bryce Rhodes guy right we now have information that he shot and killed this Christopher Jones
00:27:54
and we're now getting information that our two other murder victims were in the vehicle with Bryce Rhodes when he shot
00:28:01
and killed Christopher Jones yeah so the the PD is sitting around thinking where
00:28:06
can we find Bryce Rhodes at well and the local jewelry store yeah of course bro the interesting thing here
00:28:14
too is this information is coming with a certain amount of weight a certain amount of weight backing it up
00:28:23
that makes it even more believable because there was another accomplice also but we now have a motive of why
00:28:32
this 14 and 16 year old are dead the motive being that Bryce killed this guy and their Witnesses
00:28:40
or accomplices and and somehow then Bryce decided that they need to be be taken care of so the
00:28:49
accomplice was following behind Bryce Rhodes and Maurice and Larry who were in a vehicle following behind them in
00:28:58
another vehicle this accomplice ran over Jones's Body by accident after Christopher Jones was shot
00:29:06
Rhodes told Larry and Maurice according to the accomplice that Bryce Rhodes told
00:29:13
Larry and Maurice not to tell anyone about the shooting and then took them home that's the night of May 4th okay so
00:29:20
just reverse a little bit so Bryce pulls up with the two teenage boys in his car
00:29:30
he pulls up on this guy he gets out of his car shoots the shoots the guy his accomplice is behind him I think it
00:29:40
was a drive-by okay but then the car behind him was Bryce's buddy and he ran over the victim correct he ran over
00:29:50
Christopher Jones okay so when police arrive they find this man shot and run over he's still alive
00:30:00
but he's you know not able to speak or tell them anything right and they Rush him off to the hospital where they tried
00:30:09
desperately to save this guy but unfortunately we're unable to do so when Bryce Rhodes after the shooting he
00:30:19
of course tells Larry and Maurice not to tell anyone about the shooting about the
00:30:23
murder and then takes them home but the two teenagers they're just kids right I mean
00:30:31
at the end of the day regardless of what they were doing good bad or in between they're just kids and
00:30:39
they probably didn't know even if they were told this is what might go down tonight they may not have even believed
00:30:47
it until they saw it until they experienced it these kids are terrified now and he's just dropping them off at their
00:30:55
house yeah so it seems that this might be the the real life shocker wake-up call
00:31:05
to this 14 and 16 year old boys that hey this [ __ ] is real yeah and these things
00:31:13
have real consequences and look to what just happened to this unfortunate individual that was for all we know just
00:31:21
walking down the street minding their own business and gets gunned down and then unfortunately ran over well now you
00:31:28
have proof that this 25 year old you're hanging out with is a complete ship bag and so if he's capable and you
00:31:35
just saw what he did so if he's capable of doing that to this guy he's capable of doing that to you to any member of
00:31:42
your family you got you got mixed up with the wrong crowd well and of course now he's dropping
00:31:49
them off at home and they're terrified they're frightened and now Bryce Rhodes concern then becomes that well maybe
00:31:58
these two kids are going to tell someone maybe they're going to tell their mom maybe they're going to tell their
00:32:04
grandmother maybe they're going to tell people at school or even the police right to Double Down triple down I guess
00:32:11
on the tragedy Larry and Maurice they're dead within three weeks of this Christopher Jones
00:32:17
being shot now Christopher Jones being shot wasn't there a hit put out on him or something
00:32:25
um something like that we'll we'll get into that because it's a little more complicated than that but what we have
00:32:32
here Captain is once the mother tells police about this Bryce Rhodes and everything that she seems to know at the
00:32:39
time and that her boys were last to be seen with him the Louisville Police they started
00:32:46
looking for Bryce Rhodes and he had a record and not just not just a police record he
00:32:54
had a police record with Louisville PD right so we'll go through some of his uh background here he had been convicted
00:33:02
twice of assault four times of domestic violence and twice for violating the terms of his
00:33:10
probation but more importantly Rhodes was wanted in nearby Indiana on domestic abuse
00:33:17
charges in Clark County now Indiana authorities had been looking for Bryce Rhodes for about six months at
00:33:26
this time in our timeline he was also on probation in the same Indiana county for domestic assault for
00:33:34
incidents in 2013 and 2014. Louisville authorities had a reason to find and arrest Bryce Rhodes
00:33:44
so that's the Avenue we are going to pursue right we've only heard this information from people that we don't
00:33:52
know if they're credible or not so we don't really have anything to go out and arrest this guy on but oh
00:34:00
he already has a warrant out for him by this other jurisdiction and he's on probation so we got some leverage here
00:34:07
so it's going to be the Clark County Indiana authorities that will go out looking for Bryce Rhodes not just to not
00:34:17
just to serve their warrants and arrest him but also to help out the Louisville Police Department
00:34:24
and it only took them thankfully a couple of days to find Bryce Rhodes and bring this guy in
00:34:32
in the meantime per The Courier Journal newspaper quote homicide detectives track down one of the two alleged teen
00:34:41
age accomplices this was 15 year old anwan Carter and began interviewing him while searching for the 25 year old
00:34:50
Bryce Rhodes their Prime Suspect police also arrested another accomplice this is Jacory Taylor age 17.
00:35:00
they started interviewing these juveniles to amass evidence against 25 year old Bryce Rhodes what are we seeing
00:35:07
here Captain this loser Bryce who's he running around with did you catch all those ages 14 15 16
00:35:16
and 17. what you got no friends no I think he's I really think he's a pedo I I would be
00:35:23
interested to to hear them um to hear these juveniles talk about you know other things and
00:35:34
I wouldn't put it past him as being a pedo uh you're starting to convince me here I at first I thought well that's an
00:35:41
interesting take makes sense because we've seen it in other cases in other neighborhoods throughout time
00:35:48
yeah this is something that happens you might be onto something here captain so on Tuesday May 24th police spotted
00:35:56
Rhodes vehicle on Preston Highway they arrested him on the outstanding warrant in Indiana and were able to hold him
00:36:04
while they worked to gather evidence in the Larry Maurice murder cases and they slapped him with additional
00:36:13
charges stemming from an attack on his own mother apparently Bryce's mother alleged that
00:36:20
Bryce grabbed her by the neck and punched her in the temple as she attempted to unload groceries
00:36:28
his teenage sister called the police but at that time this would be back in 2014
00:36:34
they did not arrest Bryce Rhodes this for unknown reasons wait it's a that's what drives me insane sometimes
00:36:43
with these cases you go he grabbed his mom by the throat punched her in the temple and we didn't arrest this dick
00:36:50
canoe right like maybe if we would arrested him there maybe if if we would have got him on these other charges
00:36:58
these murders would have never taken place that's certainly possible again I don't know the reasons why he was not
00:37:05
arrested that day so I don't want to I don't want to point blame at anybody here but in a later interview his mother
00:37:13
Bryce Rhodes mother said that Bryce has mental issues and has not been taking his medication when he allegedly killed
00:37:20
Maurice and Larry she said that she was out of town at the time that's going to come back to be
00:37:28
important not so much to the medication thing or his mental issues or whatever but more so that she was out of town at
00:37:37
the time of the murder of these two young boys right so okay let's go through a little more of
00:37:45
Bryce Rhodes background in criminal history here the Clark County Indiana prosecutor this is Jeremy mull was
00:37:52
interviewed by the media and was very forthcoming about Bryce's police criminal record
00:37:59
he reeled off Road's previous convictions which included armed robbery criminal confinement domestic assault
00:38:08
and felony intimidation he was a registered sex offender there you go captain in Indiana
00:38:17
this would be for the confinement charge which involved an underage victim I don't have
00:38:25
I'm looking here I don't have the information if this underage victim was male or female either way he's still a
00:38:31
pedo and then here's a quote from the when I go to the group when I go to the jewelry store I'm a pedo here's a quote
00:38:40
from the prosecutor quote he's been out on probation they're talking about price
00:38:45
roads obviously he has been given all the resources of the taxpayers to turn his life around if he wanted to do that
00:38:53
unfortunately he just continues to accrue new crimes now what he wanted to say was unfortunately he's just a giant
00:39:01
pile of [ __ ] right it's yeah you're right this seems like a very polite way to uh to word this about Bryce Rhodes
00:39:11
now remember that we said that police had arrested some teenage accomplices of Bryce Rhodes and one of these
00:39:18
accomplices told police that he along with Maurice and Larry witnessed the Christopher Jones shooting okay another
00:39:28
was the the boy the young man that said he accidentally ran over Jones after the
00:39:34
shooting so Bryce Rhodes had multiple teen accomplices do we know how these accomplices came
00:39:42
forward did they come for it or well it wasn't difficult because what you have is you have the the mother telling
00:39:51
police after her sons are found dead right but it wasn't difficult because we have the mother telling police look my
00:39:59
boys left with Bryce Rhodes and Juan Carter and Jacory Taylor so what happens then Captain is they go all right well
00:40:06
let's go look for these three guys and ask them when's the last time they saw Maurice and Larry right and when you go
00:40:14
especially when you have young offenders when you have anwan Carter who's only 15
00:40:22
you have Jacory Taylor who's only 17. you go and talk to them you put you turn the heat up a little bit and usually you
00:40:30
start getting information from these these young guys yeah you start calling uh we know uh you want to turn your
00:40:37
boyfriend Bryce in because if you don't uh we're going to charge you as an adult and you're gonna
00:40:44
have many more boyfriends in your life well and that's exactly what's going to happen so what we have here is both very
00:40:52
quickly tell the police yes I I was with Bryce and I was with the the other young
00:40:58
man and we did in fact pick up Maurice and Larry that night so this is the information they got from the mother is
00:41:06
now being backed up by these young people Antoine Carter and Jacory Taylor I also wonder how much again you get
00:41:14
picked up you're riding around with people you know and I know and I I can say from
00:41:21
my own experience I've hung out with the wrong crowd and I learned pretty quickly
00:41:27
when you when somebody picks you up and then all of a sudden you're around the situation you never thought you were
00:41:33
supposed to be around you know right you walk into somebody's house the next thing you know uh there's a bunch of
00:41:39
drugs on the table and that's not you don't feel comfortable or there's drugs on the table and there's guns around and
00:41:47
you're going what and you're the youngest guy in the room there's there's situations
00:41:53
that sometimes you didn't even know you're you're getting into right and that's the problem with the bad crowd
00:42:01
well and if there's any young people out there listening and you happen to find yourself in a situation
00:42:08
I know it it's uncomfortable and it doesn't it doesn't seem easy but leave that's the best thing you can do if you
00:42:14
go all of a sudden you're like oh my God who am I hanging out with what's going on all this stuff they said before I
00:42:21
thought they were joking yeah or never again once you get back home never again I I say get out of there as soon as you
00:42:27
can as soon as you can um and but but it's difficult you know I mean I remember hanging out with a group
00:42:36
of older guys and we went to the apartment and right before we went into the apartment they told me don't look at
00:42:41
the guy I wanna what wait don't look at the guy yeah just who is he Medusa look at the ground and I was like look at the
00:42:48
ground they're like well he doesn't know you so he's going to be uncomfortable well why why the [ __ ] are we going there
00:42:55
if this if I can't look at the guy in his face and he's going to be so uncomfortable that some you know most
00:43:03
teenagers are dumb I was a dumb teenager once we yeah why are we going there we don't
00:43:08
know you ask any of those guys today that go yeah I don't know why we went there uh but what you have here Captain
00:43:14
is they're going to be looking for all three of these individuals that are named by the mom when they do pick them
00:43:19
up we have the the younger two saying yes in fact I was there uh Bryce did pick them up that night on that Saturday
00:43:27
so now they they have nobody else telling them that Maurice and Larry ever went anywhere else at any point right
00:43:35
and they're going to know roughly about what time or what day that the boys were
00:43:41
killed because we have a short window to work with here they're found relatively
00:43:45
quickly and you have them telling police just enough just enough to keep them going so
00:43:53
police are going to go you know what we don't have any confessions here we don't
00:43:57
have a huge amount of evidence but we got all three of these people putting themselves with the victims around the
00:44:04
time that we believe that they were murdered so we're going to charge you guys why are we going to charge all
00:44:10
three of you because we're hoping that once we crank up the heat and apply the pressure one of you will come to your
00:44:17
senses and start talking foreign [Music] is making your car rattle if you need more of a true crime garage
