I was at the store with dusty vassiki any share with me.
New information. He heard a nurse a friend of mine,
contacted me and told me that a nurse
and Iceland model they. Multiple people tell me the story, but this for the first time I heard it was
a friend told me that a nurse head.
Spoke to Ryan I've since learned he was having blood drawn and she knew him separately from. I guess before all this happened in ass. You know what happened and
He said apparently, that she did not die then she was not
did she died with you. She was not murdered this. She died.
Delay from an overdose now, obviously
hard to believe, because the she didn't even drink enough
what will they will tell me that she never ever do
so the idea that she was doing drugs at a party which, apparently you that's what ran said.
I believe first really begin orchard. Now I don't know what begin orchard
but obviously model they will have have contacted me out. I believe that the conversation happened on this road believed that the
the story that was told us trade on an assembly that I believe that that
is the story ran, told or at least close to it,
just don't believe that deafness surgery did

And the situation with the hard journal I need you know it.

IRAN has said that he hid her. That's multiple stories of said that and
from what bow spoke seems to be tat, saying? Is that at least
one conversation haze, firstly, said that he's dead bronze
order well, which when was it, must be clear about some things: tear it didn't do drugs,
tear it didn't even drink. How could any of this be true, even if Ryan
did say these things to a nurse. How could he be trusted after all,
Jill for murder propose
any other scenario of her death, but obviously being
best interest. A few weeks later,
heard the story again this time from someone different Maurice guy
when talk to somebody learn how many seconds
but before I guess I'll see you somethin on and said that, while he was there, he had told a friend the bears his burden of the story of what,
happen during the first one and then letting go story, because I wanted to see what he did say before I say anything
he arm. Then he gave me the providers,

Her heart this name until today. Ah you have her in his trunk and western, they continued their against drain party,
However, I wonder when they went on her bed down in it.
What are they hid her body in a year and then later when he did say that wine drive, you call her car back in both picked him up, and wine told her that the goal of boys, you wanting a good point out years,
I made a comment seated parts. There could be no one problem that I have heard this story here that most of the time,

For all we know, Ryan do didn't even say that in it

Oh yeah, listen and whose lives remains vigilant, laughed no blood money through just not be enacted.
A government is organ failures, organs shutting down and they transferred into Douglas, and
Labour has gained shut down and realise that the other stopped drinking. You name it in and started taken with medicine like issued.
Dialysis do sound eyes,
yeah
and then we had to go away like that,

He responded to it, but I told him then that he was gonna. Stop drinking.
There is gives them. The library

Do we respond within this as much as we stand with aviation do with it, then we wanted punished, decided and we also justice for terror to whoever them is to be brought to justice this. So they know exactly what happened
and this is what it all boils down to. Who knows that they do closer and that this is over for them and then that they got the right man, men, whoever's involved.
We all want the same thing Fran
know something then yeah he's come forward and say so, but you know in the same since he's got to be help for what he done
of the many questions I had about Ryan, some of them.
Answered
one of them being we're right,
in both live at the time in a little house across
from a gas station called tailors like that,
of us. Rhine, dukes family seem to have little to no inclination of how long this might take it's been six
This room was arrested, but a trial or please,
seem nowhere in sight. I asked.
Apology for his thoughts on this in the future of this case. What's gonna happen. Next and more importantly, when the first thing that I want to think of- and I want everybody to remember- and hopefully they will is that
An innocent person lost her life and she lost her life in the most sensible.
Sort of away, and for
undoubtedly a senseless reason when we first
learned of the arrest of Ryan, Duke in connection with terrorists murder. I would bet my last night,
or that there was not gonna be a trial in the case that certainly some kind of pleading would be reached in some
hasty resolution of this would take place in the courtroom and the case would be closed and everybody could
victory but ass. We learn more about the case. I'm not quite
Certain, as I was in the beginning that there will be a swift pleaded in this case, and I guess it sort of fifty fifty
with me as to whether or not there actually will be a trial. But
I'm leaving more more that way. The more I think about
the case and the more I think about what we ve learned really is now
going to be a big hurry to have a trial, because there's only three possible sentences. One is the death.
The next worse is life without parole and the
The other remaining possible penalty for someone convicted of murder is life in prison with the possibility of pearl,
so, unless there is some sort of a really sweet deal that Ryan's offered, it makes sense to
try to do everything they can from the defence sad to protect his rights, which include a right to a trial and to avoid a conviction that
but the defences job is every member of society. Has an interest?
and seeing that justice is not delayed,
but primarily the right to a speedy trial belongs to the accused.
Like any other right. This right can be waived. I hope that the
b, I didn't blow it back in two thousand and five and let the statute of limitations start to run as pertains to
state of Georgia versus BO dukes. I think this case is a textbook example that highlights the problems that exist in the criminal justice system all
too often the left hand doesn't know what the right hands doing, evil really
does exist in this world monsters are real.
When vanish changed. My life is affected the lives of hundreds of people, its brought truth. It's exposed secrets
most of all its share with the world. The story of an inch

we hear it. May this community and South Georgia become whole again as tough as it is, is tat.
Let the justice system run its course and for all the healing to begin, but before I conclude this scene,
I want to share one more thing with you.
Not too long ago, I met a man.
A parking lot, but an outside of Ocilla. We spoke for nearly four hours that night
no direct connection to terror, the accused killers or any one else, but he had a story that he was compelled.
Me even his own position in his job in the community. Yes, that I keep him completely anonymous
call him about the play you his voice has been changed, but the words are exactly what he told me at a relative set passed away. That is to go to the white horse and Fitzgerald on a regular basis about the friends what the guy that played a ban down there. They were kind of like the House ban. They were playing. There are not just every other week andor once a month, but they were literally playing their every week at bottom, a brother, social laugh. He was there every time they played, he would just go there. My relative was one of these guys he's never met a stranger, he felt
it is pointless. Purpose in life was to help other people if he saw somebody that needed a damn. It gave them, madam, if he saw some by the needed arrive or whatever he would help them. He was very outgoing. What that type of thing he trusted people and was just giving type person he had been in the white horse and was leaving and went out the gun his vehicle. He said that he looked across the parking lot
no, if you ve ever been to the white horse and know where the white horse is the parking lot
and I runs EAST and west there he went to his vehicle got in his vehicle was leaving getting to pull through
and he saw somebody in the parking lot, but they stood up on the vehicle him being the type of person he is. He drives opens his hey. You need to mail, he said this kid, he got him again. He said this. Kid is in the truck and had sought on it trying to Craig it until he had killed the battery battery was clicking. At this point he said the guy was yeah. My trucks torn up. I need a job. Somebody jump me off my brother said. Well, I got jabber cables out jumpy off, so he pulled the nose of the vehicle up and got out and raised. Is it said, while the guy got out of his vehicle and was walking around it, he could noticing stumbling real bad cannot wobbling. He was like okay, so the guy comes around and they raise their goods and my brothers making small talk with the guys, not really like focusing on him. You know, like ok, you're, making a connection. Obviously he was impaired in some way.
My brother said: ok, you hook your jumper cables up and other manner, so it was a fair deal. It's gonna like what people do well, the jacket and git for some reason seem like he couldn't get either his hand on the jap or cable or could squeeze the jumper cable or get it on the jumper on the post on the battery. The thought that went through my brother's head was that this gap is messed up and does not need to be driving.
Because the guy was bumbling around stumbling around, he just didn't know what condition the guy was in I've told
he was my brother now said a relative earlier, but it was my brother anyway. The guy gets in. He tells him go ahead and guarantee a vehicle interact. Cranking. My brother purposely took it up or cable of wooden crank because he didn't want this guy getting in the road. He said. If I get this guy off in this vehicle in this condition, he's in and he goes out and kill somebody, I helped the guy gets a and click click, click, click, click click, nothing happens,
long story short, he tells the guy. He says I tell you what your vehicles not running. He said you live around here. He said he mumbled. Something in my brother said well is there's someone I can take you or you can come back and get your vehicle tomorrow or some other time the gas it gear you could give me my brother didn't remember the names ever this was over. He was supposed to be taken
My brother said far lock your vehicle up make sure you got everything and I'll carry their the kid gets
the vehicle with him when they're pulling out of the parking lot. My brother was make small talk with him. They talk about football,
that's how I made it relevant to how remembered when it was because my brother, in telling the story he and I had been talking about football. This was in two thousand five, the best I can tell it down during the holidays when he- and I had this conversation- was because he related it to Florida, beating Georgia. He said, oh yeah, let me tell you about this kid. I met that was a bulldog fan, anyways partner. There was the kid, was a bulldog fan and because Florida had beaten Georgian he was Kherson and care, and on because Florida had big Georgia in going, my brother carried this guy every once in a while. He would just keep silent and he dropped out
his head would drop my brother. He said he was sleepy or totaled out, drunk or high as a kite. Something got him in paired. My brother took this opportunity and pulling over to give him parting words of wisdom of saying you don't need to be getting drunk. You don't need to be out on the road, something bad could happen.
Said the kid looked at Madame said: yeah. When I get tore a pass out,
at one time. He said someone told me I killed someone, he did say: pastel not killed somebody. He said some want
told me that I killed some one now relating meant being any person in particular, that would have ever been in the parking lot at the one horse. Salute it could have been one of three thousand people,
so no way of knowing and printing it down
We point clear out of thin air there, because my brother's, not here retailing
by monsieur bite or anything. I was so
or to ask a friend the plate there in the band ass? It did my brother. I will tell you the story, but the kid in the parking lot. He said. Maybe he did. I can't really remember gosh. It's been eleven years ago,
Oh brother mentioned it to Twitter, probably
we times in the years. Then he and I would be sitting around talking. He would retail it, but he said then Canna giving the gas supply.
The words of wisdom, saying you don't need to be out drinking, you don't need to be added, not driving drum
you need to get somebody else to rob. That's when the guy
yes, when I get drunk I pass out- and I don't remember- I don't remember what I did he didn't say I passed out and I kill somebody. He said it's someone told me that I killed someone.
I asked them. Whereas brother dropped the men, often there the coroner, Tyler's rat their work
Ours is.
Dear,
Every story has an ending, sometimes their puzzling or even unsatisfying, but in life you can control the narrative.
Sometimes you only get bits and pieces of the trail.
But my story, I hope,
one day we get the whole truth,
hello. I think that the carbon here he was a man.
You know I didn't, I didn't think it.
We give some really good work on terrorist case. You know,
another case I had in mind. I've been looking to it for years.
Maybe you and I should take a look.
To it.
