Criminal behavior is not limited to sociopaths but can affect anyone under certain circumstances, as explained by the Fraud Triangle which identifies three necessary elements: pressure (such as financial problems or job loss), opportunity (the ability to commit the crime), and justification (the ability to rationalize the behavior to oneself). Criminals typically view all relationships as transactional, expecting something in return for every interaction, which creates a mindset of opportunism and victimization. Breaking free from this lifestyle requires recognizing that personal choices determine one's path, and that genuine transformation involves doing things for others without expectation of anything in return, rather than maintaining transactional relationships that perpetuate harmful patterns.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. And just in case anyone didn't know, this is the Brett Johnson show.
That's right. We're uh we're in a new studio today. And as you see, the studio IS NOT SET UP YET, but we're in the process of setting it up. Hopefully, it will look a lot more presentable by the next broadcast. We will see. So, hey, I don't know.
I don't know if the mic's coming through. I don't know if I'm coming through too hot, if it's staticky. The video looks like it's okay. Other than that, I don't know because, you know, I'm just getting set up with this stuff.
I guess I could put on the uh the mic and see. Am I coming through? Am I coming through? Am I coming through?
Maybe, maybe, maybe. I don't know. So, look, we're supposed to be broadcasting live on Facebook, on YouTube, and on LinkedIn.
If there's any stutters, there's any problems out there, please, please let me know. All right, let's see what we got. Say some good mornings and we got to get rolling. All right, Caitlyn Watson, good morning to you. Hope you're doing all right.
Let's see. Scott Combmes, good morning.

Believe you me, I need breakfast.
Hillbilly I70. Good morning, Brady. Good morning to you and good morning to Susie Powell.
Like I said, I've just got so Yeah. And moved all the camera equipment, the desk, the mic, everything else. Look here. Look here. This is what you call This is what you call good service right here. That's what you call good. She doesn't want to be on camera.
She don't want to be on camera at all.
She don't. But she is just the same.
She's pointing to something. NO, DON'T YOU MOVE that camera now. Don't you move that camera. She's afraid of this little box right here ON THE RIGHT. BUT WE are we are we are we are there. The camera went [ __ ] for a minute there. Came back on. We are broadcasting from a gay garage. Not a gay garage. A garage. I said that's what we're broadcasting from. Um because I spent a lot of time with my girlfriend. She's over there right now.
She's shaking her head like she she says, "I cannot believe that some of my [ __ ] is mentioning me on the show this early of A MORNING." BUT I AM. But I am.
Where to begin? Um yes. So I moved most of the camera equipment last night. Woke up this morning, started getting it set up and everything. And um you see actually I don't I don't dislike the lighting right now. I don't dislike that. I've got to bring in a couple of bookshelves. Um of course the signs and all that kind of stuff. Um I wanted to talk, you know, it's weird.
So look, I also wanted to point out the only the only toy that I've got with me right now. I've got my little desk caddy. That's right, the Slayer desk caddy. Take a helmet off. Put whatever YOU NEED TO RIGHT THERE IN ITS LITTLE SKULL. That's right. Slayer goes, "Why not?" Told you guys I'm a metal head. I told you that. Of course. This morning I was listening to uh Billy Valentine singing All the Watchtower. And that was followed by Curtis Styver with a great rendition of John the Revelator. I mean, oh my god, that will give one chills. So that that's been my morning so far. and a shower cuz who wants to come on the show dirty? Anyway, so looking at the show notes today, I wanted to talk um lady reached out to me yesterday. I'm going to say good morning and we're going to get started with this. Uh say good morning again real quick to the people that are out there. Um Francis, good morning to you. Hillbilly, hit that thumbs up on your way in. It helps support THE CHANNEL. YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT IT DOES. You're damn right it does. It does. For those who may not know who Brett Johnson is, and how could you not by now, Brett Johnson, I am a former bad guy turned better guy. Hey, I like that. I like that. Former United States most wanted cyber criminal called the original internet godfather by the United States Secret Service. Um, plead guilty to 39 felonies.
Yeah, because 38 just wasn't enough. So, plead guilty to 39, was charged with gez over 76. Over 76. And the way the federal system works is, hey, you can take that to TRIAL IF YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU DON'T, [snorts] you know, we'll get we'll give we'll get you, you know, a better deal. So, I could have taken it to trial and they would have found me guilty of all 70 sex felonies and I would have probably still been in prison today, probably under the prison. But fortunately, I plead guilty to 39.
Then I escaped from prison.
But the big thing, [ __ ] if that's not big enough, the big thing was is I'm um responsible for a lot of the way that financial cyber crime works today. All right. Um, we are launching, we are trying to, we're um, yesterday I made the comment that I'm going to relaunch and I am the cyber crime 101 show because the the original idea was to have a call-in show on cyber crime, fraud, those types of scams. um hear victim stories, talk about how those crimes happen and how you can help protect yourself or your family or your business from those types of attackers like I used to be and I am very um very knowledgeable on that. I I was at the top of the heap on the bad guy side and I'm NOT I'M NOT FAR from the TOP OF THE HEAP ON THE GOOD GUY SIDE. I WOULD I would argue that for what I do, there's none better on the good guys side now or the better guy side. Let's say that. I hate I hate using the term bad guy good guys because we are all capable and I know somebody out there's going to be some numbnuts out there saying, "Oh no, I would never ever I would never ever commit any type of crime. That is not me. That's you, Brett. That's you. You going to do that?
Me? I'm not going to do that. Let me tell you, everyone everyone is capable of committing crimes. Absolutely. In fact, there's a uh there's a book called uh uh forgot what the title of it is, but the u the basic thesis of it is is that we all whether we know it or not, we all break about three federal laws a day. Now, me, I certainly knew it.
[clears throat] That's not even the point I'm trying to make. I'm trying to say that depending on circumstances depending on the circumstances that one is going through and the amount of cognitive dissonance that one has and amount of pressure and amount of opportunity and and then the amount of justification. See what I did there? I did I did Cre's fraud triangle on the fly. So CI was this guy that you know the certified fraud examiners association. really like him because he tries to break down how insider fraud happens and he says that it's a combination of well there has to be pressure on the employee. The employee has to be, you know, maybe there's medical bills, maybe there's they're about to lose their job. They don't know, they're scared, there's pressure, but that employee has to have opportunity to commit the fraud. You know, can't commit it if you if you can't do it. And then finally, that employee, and here's something that's that's kind of important. Um, a lot of people think that all criminals are sociopaths. That is absolutely not true. Most criminals just make bad decisions. And that's why I hate to use the terms bad guy, good guy. We're all just people and we're all capable of doing these things. So CI also says there has to be justification. That that fraudster, that criminal has to be able to look themselves in the mirror and say, "Hey, at the end of the day, I'm a good guy." And boy was I one of those people that tried to justify my crimes.
I absolutely was. Most people are. Most people will say, "I did it for my family or I didn't have any choice." So, you'll hear these [ __ ] lines as they're talking. And you'll be able TO PEG THEM OUT. OH. OH, YEAH. HE he's a good guy. He's not a good guy. HE WAS RIPPING ALL THESE PEOPLE OFF.
But you try to tell yourself that you are because you have to be able to live with yourself. There's a reason that Frank Lucas, the character that's in American Gangster, there's a reason that he kept care of his neighborhood. There's a reason that John Gotti, his neighborhood was so safe and he gave out turkeys at at Thanksgiving. I gave a lot of money to homeless people. A lot of stolen money to homeless people. Does that make me a good guy? No, that doesn't make you a good guy. That makes you an even bigger [ __ ] is what that makes you.
All right. Um I'm relaunching it. Yesterday, I made I made the comment about Cyber Crime 101 again. And and this show, the Brett Johnson show, I was bringing it back so it could be a call-in show for those types of of talking crime and mitigation and and how to protect yourself from that type of attacker that I used to be. And of course, the Brett Johnson show turned into what it is now where we're talking about corruption and and and doing the right damn thing.
That's what this show is.
So, I wanted to launch this other show, Cyber Crime 101. But the problem was is I got I've got this degree of Asberger syndrome. I get locked on a topic and I'm on that topic. I'm on that topic.
So, my business, you know, I have went kind of downhill. I I was busy doing this and and really wrapped up in this and I still really am. But I at the same time I I'm relaunching Cyber Crime 101. I made the comment la yesterday that hey I'm going to do it over nighttime. I guess that's the only time I've got to do it. And maybe and here's here's that that moment of what I hope is pure genius. I have I have brain farts like that every now and then and I'll say something and it clicks and I'm like [ __ ] that's A REALLY GOOD IDEA.
LIKE FOR EXAMPLE tax return identity theft. One day I'm sitting there, I'm got the California death index and I'm like, you know, I wonder I wonder if someone could file tax returns on dead people. CLICK BRAIN FART. GENIUS IDEA.
Some of those genius ideas are good.
Some of them are not so good. This one, what I said yesterday, I said, make it a nighttime show and maybe it will become the coast to coast of cyber crime shows.
And when I said it, when I said it, even at that moment, I was sitting there going, "Hey, that's not a horrible idea." So, I pondered it yesterday. It festered in my brain as I carried all the camera equipment here and my, you know, slayer desk caddy. I pondered that idea and it it continued to fester through the day and I lay down last night and was saying my prayers to dear Lord baby Jesus.
[snorts] And I slept on it and I woke up this morning and I was like, you know, the more I think about it, I mentioned it to my girlfriend last night. I said, you know, I'm thinking it could be coast to coast. And she's like, what the hell is coast to coast?
Needless to say, I was, to use a white person word, flabbergasted that she would not know what coast to coast is.
And there may be people out there who do not know today. So, Coast to Coast, I forgot the original host, and it's a shame because I used to listen to him all the time. The the current host, I think, is George Nory, and the man has the best diction of anyone I've ever heard on the planet. But I think the show started out it was supposed to be like a political show, you know, like all radio shows, every every radio host wants to be some sort of political commentator.
So it I think it started out as that, but it was a call-in show. And the people who started calling in, they started talking about UFOs and big feet and ghosts and [snorts] specters and all government conspiracies and all that stuff. And it became a horribly, horribly popular show.
So I'm sitting there going, well, you know, [snorts] I wonder if talking, you know, obstensively about cyber [snorts] crime of a late night might do something. AND IT MIGHT. IT MIGHT. SO TONIGHT, no better time than tonight to try that out. Tonight I am I'm launching the uh the coast to coast of cyber crime shows.
Cyber crime 101 tonight 1000 p.m.
Actually 11:00 p.m. Eastern. All right.
Now, here's the thing. George Norian Company, I guess they were vampires because from what I remember, they would run from like 10 p.m. until 4:00 a.m.
every night. I ain't doing that [ __ ] I GOT TO SLEEP AT some point in time. I mean, I'M NOT LIKE SCOTT BLAIR. I DON'T HAVE A STEADY supply of methamphetamine.
I got to sleep. I GOT TO SLEEP. PLUS, I'M TRYING TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP. My girlfriend, she's not a vampire. So, tonight at 11:00 p.m. Eastern, we are going to launch what will maybe be the coast to coast of cyber crime podcast shows, YouTube shows, whatever the hell that is. It's going to be live. Of course, it's going to be live. And whatever happens on that show, man, I like I I like saying it like that. Whatever happens on that show happens on that show. Wherever that show goes is exactly where that show is going to go. You can call in, you can say whatever you want to. You can [ __ ] at Brett Johnson. You can call him the worst piece of [ __ ] on the planet. YOU CAN SAY, "HEY, BRETT, I REALLY LIKE YOU, DUDE. HOW TELL ME HOW TO COMMIT THIS FRAUD." And I'll sit there and say, "No, I'm not going to tell you how to commit this fraud." I'm going to say, "Stop victimizing people." BUT AT THE same time, there's probably going to be enough information out there because I mean, I do tell how this [ __ ] happens because it and here's why. The bad guys, I hate to use the word bad guys. Those people who are committing crime already know how to do this [ __ ] It's typically those people who don't know how, [snorts] you know, they're trying to defend against their their fighters. They call themselves fighters.
They're fraud fighters or crime fighters.
They're they're doing this. They typically don't know how the crimes are committed unless you're law enforcement.
You know, law enforcement's very good because they end up arresting a lot of people like me. So, I'm kind of excited about this. I kind of am. Kind of am. So, tonight 11 p.m.
Eastern.
1100 p.m. Eastern. Cyber Crime 101. It's going to be broadcasting on Facebook, on YouTube, on LinkedIn, and maybe next week I'll add Twitter to that as well.
Huh. We'll see. Maybe. [ __ ] Maybe I'll be just solo. Maybe it'll be just me talking and no one else. I don't know.
Now, now that that's established, I I wanted to talk about this thing called the criminal lifestyle.
There's a reason that criminals, especially cyber criminals, and I'll get to Kentucky. Don't worry about that. But this matters. This actually matters.
This pertains to a conversation I had with with a young lady yesterday. uh one of her relatives is in trouble and um I was I was telling her some of the process of how the court system works and I I wanted to comment on that today and I told her I would talk about it without identifying without identifying who she is, where she is, who her relative is, what the charges are, anything else like that. So it's going to be kind of a you know kind of a big subject area. All right. Oh, criminal lifestyle when we're talking about, especially cyber criminals, and it's it's really every criminal that's out there. Um, you start out, you don't know [ __ ] You don't I didn't start out some sort of criminal mastermind. I didn't I didn't I didn't I started out with being a guy who was um somewhat uneducated in it. I mean, I grew up my my family, my mom, uh, a lot of that family through there, they were fraudsters. They they did hustles and, you know, schemes and, you know, FEMA fraud before FEMA was around and and [ __ ] like that. They did that. So, I grew up with the mindset. Certainly grew up as a social engineer. So, a social engineer is a con man, liar, manipulator. It's got a tech element to it these days. But it's a nice, you know, friendly word for being a liar and being a very competent one and a manipulator.
So, I grew up having to be that social engineer because I had to manipulate the adults in my circle. I had to know when they were going to pop off. Like my grandfather, Paul Campbell, that son [ __ ] he would he would chase you around the house with a with a butcher knife. So you had to know you had to know when he his sugar levels might be a little too high and he might be going a little nuts that day. He had to be able to read people. [snorts] That matters when you're doing cyber crime or financial cyber crime, especially today because today a lot of the a lot of the crime is not uh skill-based. It's it's more being able to um deceive people, you know, layer trust or build trust with that potential victim and then pull the trigger and get that potential victim to give you what? Information, access, data, cash. That's what you look for or what attackers are looking for in an online environment. Information, access, data, cash. Um that criminal lifestyle, it's called a lifestyle for a reason.
Whether you're online or whether you're a drug dealer like Michael Campbell that we lambasted last week, it's a lifestyle.
It's 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 a year, 366 on a leap year. All right?
It never stops. So, it's not a job. It's not a 9to-5. It's not You need to understand that this this is this is an entire mindset. It's a way of living.
You know, we talk about um Lascivia Richie, for example, um [snorts] this stripper who I still believe has something to do with the disappearance of Sean Risner.
All right. Over in in Big Branch, not County, it's a lifestyle. It's it's something your your every relationship that you have is transactional. All right? And take Lascivia for example.
She she used to be a stripper. Certainly her relationships are transactional both on the pole in the back room and in whatever house she's at right now. You know, she I've got audio of her talking about [ __ ] a judge and law enforcement officers so that she doesn't get in trouble and gets information about who's being investigated. So, every relationship is transactional.
You know, it's not I talked today about I I don't have my Bible with me. Um, I talked today about, you know, when when you do something for someone, you do it without expectation of anything in return. If I if I tell you if I've done you wrong, and and certainly maybe you've done me wrong as well. I don't apologize to you in expectation of you apologizing to me.
I'm apologizing to you because I realize that I have wronged you and I'm trying to make it right on my end. I don't that you don't apologize to me has nothing to do with it. However, in a criminal lifestyle, that transactional type of relationship, you do expect something in return. You absolutely do. All right? If I love you, what are you giving me back? If I'm saying I'm sorry, what are you giving me back? If I'm doing you a favor, if I'm saying hello, if I'm doing anything nice for you, what are you giving me in exchange? And as a society today, we there's a large swath [snorts] of today's society that believes in that type of transactional world. You know, I'm not going to do anything for you unless I get something in return.
That's not the way that life should be.
But that is absolutely the way it is in a criminal lifestyle. And we see that bleeding over in today's world as well.
>> [snorts] >> I would I would I would venture to say that because of that bleed over it helps one become or choose to become a criminal later on and to further victimize people. Just my thought.
[snorts] So it's a transactional world. It's a world of opportunism.
So if you're stealing money, that's what I did. I People ask me how much I I pro how [clears throat] much did you make?
Well, I didn't make anything. I stole a lot of money. There's a difference.
There's a big difference in that. Um, that type of world is a world of opportunism. It's a world of opportunism. So, you're looking for opportunity to victimize whoever it is, wherever it is, whenever it is. And that's important because again, it's it's a lifestyle. It's it's not just a job. It's not even a career. It is your way of life. It's what you know. It's how you survive. It's how you you live in the world is that criminal lifestyle that that mindset of opportunism of transactional relationships of you don't have and I've said this before. I don't know know if I've said it on this show, but you don't have friends. That's important. You do not have friends when you are a criminal. Now, there there will be some like Michael Campbell out there. HE MAY SAY, "OH, I'VE GOT FRIENDS." NO, [ __ ] You don't have friends. What you've got is you've got criminal associates. That's what you've got. All right? And that's important.
You know, I um growing up, geez, growing up, my dad was in the military, which I mean, it provided me a an excellent world view. It absolutely did.
I I didn't I wasn't stuck in one specific place.
where I I just had the mindset of that one specific culture. I I lived across the United States, lived in Europe at a very young age and at a very developmental age, and it gave me a very good worldview of things. Um, for example, when when my dad drops out of the military, they they kind of forced him out. They were downsizing. He was a captain helicopter pilot and they said, "Hey, you can stay in, but we're going to bust you down to stab Sergeant or you can kick rocks." And my my my mom was a bit of an embarrassment, not bit. She was a big embarrassment u on base. Anyway, she she partied. She slept with grandma while my dad, stuff like that. Raised a lot of hell. So, he drops out and we move. I think we're at Fort Knox, K. We were at Fort Knox, Kentucky at that point in time. and my dad gets downsized and drops out of the military. We moved back to Hazard, Kentucky. Now, I had visited Hazard as a child, not for any extended period of time, but and I'm not hammering on just Hazard because this is indicative of a lot of small towns and a lot of large cities throughout the United States even to this day. But coming into Hazard, all of the black people, where did they live? They lived on Liberty Street.
That's where they lived. I think there were maybe two or three people throughout Perry County that lived outside of Liberty Street. And uh it was accepted. It was normal. It was normal.
And and for me, I mean, I was a kid, you know, I was like, why do they all live there? And the answer was because that's where they all live.
You know, it's not just hazard that that kind of stuff happens or happened and continues to happen. You know, I I uh I lived in Charleston, South Carolina, and Charleston is one of those places that Birmingham's a lot like that, too, of um the have and have nots and making sure that the people who have not don't become the halves. You know, you want to keep them in their place. Back in the uh back in the day, it was all about black people keeping them in their place and you would have water fountains marked others and you would have to sit in a certain part of the bus or you know you couldn't sit at the right table or what have you. [snorts] And you know today with with Birmingham it's still very racist. Birmingham north of the railroad tracks it's 98% or [snorts] 99% black and uh south it's 98% white.
still that way. Charleston [snorts] was very good about making sure that a lot of the crime stayed, you know, cordoned off in very poor black areas. You see that in California, Los Angeles, you see that kind of [ __ ] So, so you know, I was able as a child to avoid being shoehorned in to one specific mindset. And I think that helps me later on in life. It helps me certainly as a criminal, but it helps me become that better person that I'm trying to become these days. And that criminal lifestyle again of transactional relationships, of opportunism, of taking advantage of and I know there's going to be criminals out there. Oh, I had friends. You didn't.
You had associates. That's what you had.
You may have had some friends when you went to prison. All right. Which is kind of interesting. Like I was I was a criminal for [ __ ] for years. Never had friends on the outside. I went to prison. [ __ ] BRETT'S GOT SOME FRIENDS.
Brett's got some friends.
You know, associates.
It's a very living that type of criminal lifestyle is a very lonely world.
It's a it's it's almost a paranoid world. You're you're always looking for the comeup. You're always looking for how can I profit by the situation that is going on. How can I profit?
That's on financial. And I I'm, you know, drugs at the end of the day, that's that's still a financial type of crime because the dealer is looking for some sort of profit. Whether it be in the form of cash, whether it be in the form of stolen goods, whether it be in the form of flesh, that dealer is still looking for some sort of profit and they're taking advantage of people. And I did that. I did that a lot. A lot. [snorts] This lady contacts me yesterday and her relative had uh when you're arrested like my initial arrest February 8th, 2005 and um shocking. Well, not so I mean [ __ ] I knew it's not like I didn't know it was coming. We had intercepted text messages of the United States Secret Service investigating us. We knew we were on the chopping block. All right, we knew that.
So I was arrested February 8th, 2005.
And uh [snorts] the initial charges, [sighs] I forgot what all there was forgery.
There was state computer crime. There were a lot. It was all state charges.
Thrown into um the Charleston, South Carolina. I forgot what the county is there. Thrown in the county jail there.
And what would happen was and man, I was a wreck. I will tell you these days I I got to be a little bit different but that initial arrest and I had been arrested before but that that initial arrest MAN I WAS CRYING LIKE A BABY LIKE a baby. I mean a blurbing just a baby. I mean I was a wreck because arrested February 8th, 2005. My wedding date was set as February 26, 2005. And I knew that [ __ ] wasn't going to happen.
I knew it wasn't going to happen. So, I was I was just a complete wreck. And what happened was is FBI, [sighs] Charleston PD, they get me. Controlled delivery is what what happens. That's how they catch me. Um within 45 minutes, Secret Service comes in, takes over the investigation because they know who they've got.
And uh I had avoided I had avoided capture before that. And the way I'd avoided I had I'm the guy you want to know where all the the Russians and the Ukrainian cyber criminals how their entry comes into the United States.
[snorts] You're looking at him. All right. You're looking at him.
The um I'm the guy that makes the bridge between the Russian and Ukrainians to the Americans and builds that bridge for cyber crime. Because for cyber crime to be successful, three things take place. have to gather data, commit crime, cash it out. You have to network with other people. And the Ukrainians at that point in time, they needed cash out people. And lo and behold, bing, I'm that guy. So, Secret Service comes in, takes over investigation. They know who they've got. They absolutely know who they've got.
[sighs and gasps] The wedding doesn't take place, needless to say. And finally, you know, they get me out and I'm I'm the guy that continues to break the law from inside the Secret Service offices until I go on a cross country crime spree, make the US most wanted list, blah blah blah, go to Disney World, blah blah blah. Um yeah it's it's it's interesting looking at that life to what I am doing now because now I I I'm adamantly against any type of transactional relationship.
Adamantly against that. I mean, I've fallen into that every now and then over the years, but I'm getting better, you know. So, [snorts] I'm adamantly against that. I I I believe in doing things for people without the expectation of anything in return of doing it just to, you know, do the right damn thing. You know, I we didn't start this show u you know, the Brett Johnson show didn't become about Eastern Kentucky because I was expecting to get a lot of subscribers, a lot of listeners, viewers, or or money. No, I did it because it was the right this a family member asked me to help and I thought I could and and we it turned into a we we did and and we continue to help. So, I'm adamantly against that. I I I I don't look I I I I'm only right now I'm 10 years into this speaking career. 10 years. And um I've never really I've just this year started to reach out to ask I've got a network from hell. I mean, I've got people that that are outstanding human beings that I'm still surprised uh that are not only connected to me, but call me friend, rely on me, ask me advice, things like that. And I've never in this 10ear span have I ever reached out and and started to ask people, hey, do you need do you need a consultant? Do you need an adviser, a speaker? I you know, but I need some work right now. Um, so I I I I I'm tried to uh not be that opportunist that I used to be. Still have problems with friendship. [sighs] [gasps] And Francis, if she's still watching, will will absolutely tell you that I absolutely have a lot of problems accepting any form of compliments whatsoever. It got to the point she tells me finally, it's been a few years ago, she's like, "Look, I know you have trouble taking compliments. just say thank you. So you'll see me if someone gives me a compliment. I don't know how to accept that because uh deep down I don't believe I deserve that. So I'll say thank you. I really appreciate that.
You know, I I don't know what else to say. So I I'm try I try to uh and I think I'm succeeding largely in getting past that that criminal lifestyle that was such a cornerstone of who I was. You know, when I when I finally realized that I was not going to commit crime anymore, it really was like this just hole that was inside of me. I didn't know what was going to fill it. Well, I' I've found out over the years what fills it.
This lady reaches out and she's got a relative that's going through it. And and what happens is I was arrested, say I think it's like 17 initial charges, and they bring you in, they process you, they fingerprint you, they give you the uh the typhoid test or whatever that is. They give you all this [ __ ] or or no, it's um [gasps] [sighs] oh [ __ ] it's a skin TB tuberculosis test. They give you the tuberculosis test, ship you back to the cell and every new charge that comes in and I had a lot a lot. It was 76 just federal charges. This is state [ __ ] at this point in time and I had been prolific across South Carolina. So, as they realized that it's this guy, I would be called up to the front eight to 10 times a day to be fingerprinted again and again and again and again and again. As you know, the charges rolled in.
This lady was very surprised or she was she was hurt that that her relative had been arrested again. Well, he was he was he had already been arrested. He was on home confinement.
Why is he being arrested again? And and you know, she was blaming law enforcement and and [ __ ] I mean, let's be let's be honest. A lot of law enforcement, especially in in Eastern Kentucky, is for [ __ ] It truly is.
They're not trained. A lot of them are are are, you know, they tow the rope or tow the line of of whoever's in charge, you know, being county judge, executive, mayor, who have you or the wherever the money is. That's what they do. You know, like Joe Engel, I know people when when we first started this show, I had a bunch of push back from, you know, people would say, and I I out of the gate, I said Joe Engle is corrupt. I had no proof of that whatsoever. I just knew the area. Proof came though, and I had people that bucked me on that, you know, no, he's a good he's a good sheriff. Well, no, it turns out he was a piece of [ __ ] sheriff, and he is a piece of [ __ ] sheriff.
That's that's typically the way. It's typically the way, especially in areas like Eastern Kentucky is you get law enforcement officers that that are corrupt. They they need to be voted in.
They don't have law enforcement experience. And even worse, sometimes they've got military experience and and people mistakenly think military experience is law enforcement experience and it's not. It's opposite almost.
So, you know, this lady is is upset that her relative has been rearrested. She doesn't understand it. And what happens is is you're arrested like I was arrested. And pending indictment, you'll have a bond.
All right? And maybe you'll only be like in the district court or what have you, but you'll have a bond because it's not been booted up yet. All right? So, you have a bond. You'll bond your ass out or you'll be released on, you know, home confinement or what have you and you're out.
Well, your family [snorts] may figure out too. They don't realize that the process is not is it's still ongoing. So, that indictment may come or may more charges may come or what have you. Well, when that happens, even though you're out on bond, that bond's done with. That bond's done with.
You have to have another bond set. All right? So, as it's booted from district to circuit while you're out on a district bond sometimes or what have you, once you're indicted, that disappears, you're rearrested and another bond has to be set at that point. The reason I wanted to talk about this today, family loves you most of the time. And most of the time, your family loves you. Most of the time, you know, it doesn't matter what you do, you are still family.
Eastern KY's big on that. I'm big on that. Don't I don't give a [ __ ] what you do.
I do not care what you do. You are my family and I love you. Yeah, you may be the worst human being on the planet. You might be, but I still love you and I'm still here for you. And especially in Eastern Kentucky, we're big on that. We're big on that.
The problem is, and I I don't know. I I barely know the lady. I like her a great deal. I don't know her relatives. So, I I don't know if the gentleman is guilty.
I don't know. And and frankly, that's that's not part of this conversation.
I I will say that um a lot of the time family loves that person so much that they blind themselves to what's going on. I'm not talking about this lady. So please, I know you're listening. I'm not talking about you on this. I'm talking about say say like someone who's addicted to to drugs or whatever they're addicted to. Um a lot of the time the family member loves that person so much that they turn they don't want to accept what is and uh it's unfortunate it's unfortunate I think that that we can love our family members and support them while also being able to uh recognize that sometimes they're not they're not making the wisest choices. Um, my friend Christine up in Minneapolis, she is a she's a wonderful human being.
She is a good mom, but she's not talked to her son in many [clears throat] years because her son is a uh he's not a good person. He's he's committed a lot of assaults, uh, a lot of very violent crimes. He's going to be serving, I guess, probably 10, 15 years on on his current charge.
He's just not he's just he's taken advantage of her over the years. And she got to the point she loves her boy. She she loves her boy. She recognizes that that he's doing some very bad things.
[snorts] She recognizes too that she had to uh cut him off so that she could be healthy. And that's what she did. And that a lot of time that's what you have to do. You you have to realize that that your relationship with that person that you love is such that if you don't cut it off with them, you're going to spiral down. And you also at some point realize that, hey, I'm not helping them by still being in their life.
You have to be able to realize that, too. And and that's there's a lot of truth to that that that the more you know those love people that a lot of family members or or friends when you've got somebody that that's in a bad situation, they're a criminal or they're they're an addict or what have you, alcoholic, what whatever that is, gambling addict, whatever that is, [snorts] they'll often make excuses for that person. You know, you can't help it. you were raised that way or you know you we we I know you're doing this because you ain't got no other choice.
You know you ain't got no work. What are you going to do? Or you know your your mom just died or what have you. It's it's understandable that you would drink or relapse or whatever that is. So there's there's all these excuses and what that does is is it delays that individual from reaching rock bottom.
And and rock bottom a lot of the times I was no different. You know, I I thought I'd hit bottom several times.
Come to find out, I had a lot farther to fall.
You have to to change your life.
You you I don't believe that it's something that uh that people just choose to do.
I I think something [clears throat] has to force you to do that. And and for people who are addicted or criminals like I used to be, it's it's hitting that rock bottom. It's understanding that no, you see, I used to be the person that thought, I can do it all myself. I can get it done. No one's going to save me but me. I can do it.
And as long as things are working, that philosophy, it's spot on. But when things don't work, you realize pretty quickly that no, you can't do it yourself. That you you need a support group. You need family. You need people who help you. You need God above. You You need these things to help you change your life. But something has to make you something has to spur that moment on where you realize that if you stay on the path that you are on that it's just going to end badly. It's already going badly. It's just going to get worse. So, something has to make that happen. Um, this lady I don't I don't know I don't know her her relative. I don't I'd be more than happy to like Christine. I told her I'd write her son that way at least um he would know that someone outside of the fence was thinking about him other than his mother. And I told her and I'll tell this lady the same thing about her relative. I'd be more than happy to write him and I will tell him because it looks like he he might do some time.
I will tell him what was told to me that prison while horrible can be a very positive experience. You can change that that that that time.
It affords you the opportunity to change the things about you that you don't like.
If you're smart enough and insightful enough to look inside and identify those things that need to be changed for you to be a productive, helping human being instead of a harming human being. So, what I'll tell you today, I didn't tell you this yesterday on text messages, but I'll tell you that today. I'd be more than happy to to write this young man and and and give him the same advice that was given to me. And uh I don't know if he's I don't know if he did the stuff. I don't know. But you know, it looks like he might serve some time and I'd be more than happy to to write and have correspondence with him and and maybe he would take the advice that I that I ended up taking as well. It was given to me by a guy that had done like 22 23 years and uh he liked me and and wanted to uh to give me some sage wisdom and I I try to uh to do the same when when given the opportunity. So just so you know I'm more than happy to do that.
Um we family are victims.
We are. You've got all these victims of crimes.
You've got You take Emilyn Clark for example.
Emilyn's a primary victim. Absolutely.
Her family, they're victims as well.
All right. Because they're feeling the pain of the loss of the child, of the future of the child, the love, the loss, everything. They're they're victims.
the community is a victim because they they they everything that's done and talked about and the feeling of the loss and the sadness and the depression and the harm that's caused and the anger and the outrage of of what happened during those events.
The community is victims. I mean, you've got all of these victims in a line of any type of crime that's committed.
Okay. Family is absolutely a victim because family loves that person. That person who has committed a crime, family loves that person and they're hurt that that person is is going away for a while or worse. They're hurt that that person has harmed other people.
And a lot of the time that family is blamed for the crimes that that person committed and that's not the case.
That's not the case. I I don't care how you were raised and I I had I was raised an abusive childhood. All right?
Mentally, emotionally, sometimes physically. [snorts] It and and in a criminal type of of family as well. It doesn't matter what that family has done.
It is the choice of the criminal to commit the crime. every step of the way.
Now, when you're a child, you can't help that [ __ ] When you become an adult, you have the opportunity to choose not to victimize someone because crime, absolutely, you're victimizing someone and often many people.
As a criminal, you have an act you have to make the active decision actually several different active decisions all along the way to victimize someone to cause harm to someone. That is the choice of the criminal that it doesn't matter how that person was raised. And I know somebody's going to be in the comment section say, "Oh, yeah, yeah, it matters. It [laughter] No, it doesn't.
It doesn't.
It doesn't. The victim [clears throat] is never to be blamed for the crime which is perpetrated upon them. The family, as shitty as they may be, as abusive as as they may be, at the end of the day, that criminal still has the choice as to whether they are going to victimize someone or not.
Simply the truth. Simply the truth. So, we need to understand things like that.
you know, we we need to uh we're a society today.
We're a society today that, you know, we we come up with reasons to not be responsible.
We come up for reasons not to be accountable for our own lives. It's it's it's everyone else's fault but mine. No.
End of the day, the bug stops with you.
You are where you are in life because of your choices. Period. You are where you are because of your choices. That's all I got to say about that. So, let's let's try let's try to have some fun. See, will somebody I need to look up see what we got. So, that handles Family is victim cyber crime 101 the coast to coast of cyber crime shows launching tonight at 11 p.m. Eastern. I'm I'm kind I'm excited by that. I'm excited by that. Um, I need to call Johnny Wooten, Perry County School Board, right here in just a second.
Let's check the comments. Francis Everage, you also have difficulty with communicating with people. Yeah, no [ __ ] I have That's a weird thing, right? I mean, let's be honest. In an interview environment, man, I am one hell of a communicator.
You know, someone has me on a podcast that that some [ __ ] he can talk. He can communicate. He gets his message across.
But one to one, I do have trouble with that. You're absolutely right. You are absolutely right. So, let's check the comments again. I need to call um Johnny Wooten. He is he's assistant principal.
So, I call the Perry County School Board. I think I'll look at number.
Someone can shoot that to me in the comments real real quick. We will call and ask why child predator Jeff Campbell, why is he still at school? Why is he teaching? Why is he why is he still fantasizing about raping children? Why why is that happening? That's what I want to know. And then I need to find out where uh someone sent me a message of where Michael Kagel is working with mentally disabled people.
I want to call that business and also see if we can get that syphilis spreading [ __ ] fired.
Today's going to be a good day. Today is going to be a good day. Then we need to talk about the sheriff.
Sheriff, his name is Billy Comet, Colette, whatever his damn name is.
Sheriff, I said Lecher County. It's Leslie County. Lesley County. So, excuse the show notes. Lesley County. Not saying that Lecher County is any better.
We need to talk about the sheriff over in Lesley County and that judge William Lewis. That's what we need to talk about. So, right now, I'm looking at the comments. No one's shot me the phone number yet. So, let's look up Perry County. Perry County attorney. No, no, no. I don't need a Perry County attorney yet. Geez. Even though Ned Pillars dork has, you know, sent some cease and desist letters out there like that bug bothers me. I No, not really Ned. Not really Ned. Anyone that's named Pillars dork does not intimidate me. I'm just saying Perry County Board of Education.
Board of Educ. It It is I guess it's a board of education that I'm calling Perry County. I Perry County, Alabama.
No, not Perry County, Alabama. Perry County, Kentucky. It has Kentucky. All right.

I'm just call Hey, you you told me to call you whenever I had a question and uh I like you, respect you, me and you get along well. And I was calling today u wanted to ask some questions about uh Jeff Campbell. Um he was a coach over there and uh um he uh you know he likes him young. I got some text messages and pictures and and all that. he likes him young and uh evidently he had you know stepped down from being a coach but he's still teaching over there and we on the show we we kind of wanted to know you know why he's still teaching and what we could do to get him out of there. So, uh, I didn't know who else to call because you talked to me and [snorts] were friendly and and I liked you talking to me and you know, there was that moment you called me and I pretended to be that reporter and you know, just want to reach out to you. So, I'll reach out to you again tomorrow [clears throat] and um, maybe we can get some answers here. So, I hope you're having a great day. Hope everything's going all right. continue doing the good job that you're doing and [snorts] we will talk on the tomorrow. Have a good day, sir. Okay. Bye bye.
[clears throat] So, he didn't answer. I'm going to say he's not in the office because every other time that we have called, he has picked up. He has. [snorts] And he has given us good answers. He has. So, I respect that. I respect a man I respect a man that comes on and talks answers the questions.
[snorts] You can't there's nothing you couldn't argue about with that. So we will try to call him tomorrow on the tomorrow and see what happens. That's what we'll try to do. That's exactly what we will try to do. All right. Here's Neil.
Here's Neil. The pedophile hiring department that I don't GET IT. I DO NOT GET IT. I DO not understand how child rapist or would be child rapists in Eastern Kentucky, how when they're caught identified that, you know, the county judge executive hires them or they have to, you know, step down for being a coach, but they're allowed to still be teachers or, you know, how They then lead the congregation in song at the Gospel Light Baptist Church.
I don't understand that. I don't I'm sure there's an answer somewhere, but I do not understand that. Does anyone know? Because I don't want to go through um it was an audio recording that the lady told me where Michael Kaggel works u you know with with mentally disabled people. Uh, I want to call that business because Michael is very good about, you know, calling women that he gives syphilis to and and milks for money. He's very good about calling them [ __ ] And it would occur to me, it occurs to me that if Michael has a job that's being paid, I mean, he's being paid to work with people with mental disabilities, it would seem to me that that employer might want to know that Michael likes to call people [ __ ] That would seem to be important. And it would seem to me that maybe Michael doesn't need to be working with those types of people. Maybe Michael needs some some therapy. Maybe he needs some I'm sure Michael does need some therapy.
I other than strong antibiotics and a hammer to the [ __ ] to knock all that puffs and corruption out of there that he continues to spread. I still don't understand. I know I've said it before.
I still don't understand how someone who has the syphilis, the bullheaded clap.
I [laughter] still don't understand how it takes a year of antibiotics and probably multiple hammers on the head of it to get rid of it. I thought they had just I thought it was like doxycyc and they had that one super pill and I thought that was it. Maybe I'm wrong and I'm wonder I mean I I met him at Perry County Park.
I don't remember if you had a case of the red eye or not because that's part that's what you GET YOU GET THAT YOU KNOW. SO WATCH OUT WATCH OUT when you when you when you're interested.
So you you know you're lonely and you're horny and you're you're wanting you're wanting a little of that [laughter] the snoop. You want a little bit of that because you're tired of shaking hands with the unemployed or boopping the dolphin under the big tip. You're tired of that. you're you're wanting to copulate with someone, not something, someone. So, be aware if that person has a case of the itching red eyee, you might want to avoid that person because that's that's one of the one of the uh you know, side effects of the uh [applause] bullheaded clap.
I don't remember if Michael had the red eye when he was at Perry County Park, but he may have. may have and I hope that he got rid of the uh the syphilis. I know that he spread it profusely like he was a disciple of sephilis in the region. He wanted to make sure that everyone was indoctrinated properly.
So he spread it as much as he could as he's calling these women retards. So, I I want to call that employer and inform that employer of what's going on. I think that's important. I think it's very important. I loved Fort Knox when me and my family were there. And that that's oddly enough, that's not on my on my criminal bucket list. It's not not, you know, I'm not I don't commit crime anymore, but it's not like I don't have a criminal bucket list. You know, STEALING REMBRANDT'S NIGHTW WATCH, THAT'S RIGHT THERE. Armored car robbery, that's right there. mobile meth lab.
[snorts] [clears throat] You could run it out of an ice cream truck maybe. You know, it's right there. You know, there's several different things, robbing a train.
Like, we're driving yesterday and a train's crossing the track. And I I I said, "That's on my criminal bucket list right there. I've always wanted to rob train cars." You know, I've always wanted to do that. It just seems exciting. You know, you see it in the movies and and And I was like, that's something to do. You know, semi, you know, semi semi-truckss, you know, the the trailers, you know, pop one of those open. It's like Christmas. You don't know what's in there. You know, maybe it's maybe it's a semi-truck load of condoms that we could give to Michael Kaggel and maybe he wouldn't spread as much syphilis to people. You never know.
You never know. Like porch piracy, for example. You know, I I I know that's low on the bucket list, but I've always thought about, you know, what what a person could do during Christmas season is they simply follow the FedEx truck or the UPS truck and as it drops off the packages, you run up to the porch, you pick up the packages. It's like Christmas. You don't know what you're going to get, but it's something, you know, and there's already wrapped. I mean, it's brown wrapping most of the time, but it's already wrapped. It's like a gift.
criminal bucket list. It's these things that I continue to think about. It's these things. So, I'm I'm wanting to call Michael Cable's employer Wanda Pard, my friend. Good morning. I hope you're doing all right. Um Neil Singleton Blair is making as much now as he was before he got caught. And that's I mean, think about that for a second.
Think about that for a second, honestly.
So, you've got Scott Blair. You've got Scott Blair. When he was a public pretender, he was abusing his position in power. Now, he was a public defender for I don't know how long. He gets his ass in trouble. He has to go out to rehab in Los Angeles where he finds out what hot looks like according to him when he talks to this Lowe's guy in in the Hazard of Perry County area. So, he abused his position. Then he then becomes prosecutor.
And I've talked to people on Friday nights.
Scott Blair would call up people that he was prosecuting, people that he was drug testing. Scott Blair would call these people up and he would say, "I've got the fire. Come on up." Now, what was the fire? What was a very high quality of methamphetamine?
And Scott wanted him to come up and get high and they'd [ __ ] all night long.
That's what he wanted.
And these were the same people that he would then drug test.
So abusing that position in power to the point, now let's be honest, the state, they knew about it. When he was public defender, they knew the son of a [ __ ] was high on cocaine and he graduated later on to methamphetamine. They knew he was doing this. They let it ride.
They let it ride knowing that he was absolutely victimizing the people that he had sworn to serve and protect and and seek justice for and on. They knew that. They let it happen.
They let it happen. They knew that he was abusing his position in office and they let it happen at the local and the state level. Let it ride. Let it ride. It wasn't until the feds stepped in and indicted son of a [ __ ] that something happens and he serves some time. Not much, but he serves some time.
He loses his law license. Thank God.
Thank God. But then what happens? Then what happens is son of a bish Scott Alexander who how dare someone say that that's a good guy. Scott Alexander hires him to work in the same courthouse where he victimized all these people and his position in power to work back in that courthouse making basically the same amount of money he was making before he went to prison.
In what world is that okay?
How do you h how does anybody sit there and say Scott Blair is a good guy, Scott Alexander is a good guy, there's justice to be found in the Perry County court system.
How do you say that?
You don't. You don't. Now, I know. Hey, I know. [ __ ] I know. I I've talked about it ad nauseium. I made a shitload of fun about it. I I hope that I have destroyed Scott Blair's entire persona by portraying him as having an [ __ ] the size of a hot dog down the hallway.
I hope that I have done that. But on a serious level, think about what that [ __ ] did.
These are people that their lives, most of them just addicted addicted to it.
Not bad people. They simply chose a drug to forget about the hardships of life.
They became addicted to it, got in legal trouble over it, and then you've got a prosecutor or a defender that victimizes them further after all that. And then this son of a [ __ ] is going to work in the courthouse making basically or more money than he did before he lost his license to practice law.
How is that how does that make sense? I mean, how how does that make any sense whatsoever?
[sighs] Neil, buddy, I love you. You know I do.
What if the person dies while Michael was out running around? What charge you think that is for Mike? I'd be getting on my knees and pray. Yeah, Michael Michael Kaggel does not need to be working with anyone. And here we go.
Freight fraud is huge. Trucks are going missing all the time. And I always thought about that. I always wanted to rob train cars. You know, you never know what's in a train car. You don't know.
Is it is it cattle? Is it coal? Is it electronics?
You never know. You never know. Is it is the government shipping some sort of alien hardware by rail somewhere or some sort of nuclear device? You never know what you'd happen upon.
But I always wanted to find out. Always wanted to find out.
Put a shock collar on that. Oh my goodness gracious.
Oh my goodness. That is not a bad idea.
I'm going to leave that comment up there for a second. Put a shock collar on that penis so it will give a violent shock when you do wrong. Man, I tell you that is not bad. That's like That's like something out of a clockwork orange right there. That's what that is. So, what you could do with Michael Cable, take him to court, judge. Hopefully, it's a good judge. Hopefully, it's a good judge that realizes what real justice is. And the judge says, "Michael Kaggel, I sentence you to have a shock collar, a very small one, cuz you know that penis, it looks your penis looks like a penis only smaller." But I sentence you to have a very small shock collar put around the head of that very small syphilis filled penis of yours. And what it's going to work it's going to work is any time is it's both audio and movement based.
So, anytime you say the word [ __ ] guess what's going to happen? That's right. You You going to get it, son. You going to get it. And not only that, Michael, but it's evident that you, my friend, have a problem with sexual relationships. It It seems that you want to spread your syphilis seed wherever you and wherever and whoever you can to. So, it's shakala, very small one. that's going on your very small thing that looks like a penis but only smaller. This shakala is going to be able to recognize the least little bit of um engorgment [clears throat] of of of sexual lust of of of rigidness that might prevail down there. And as soon as it does, guess what? That's right. That's exactly what's going to happen to you, Malcolm. We're going to have that on you. We're going to have that on you for probably, I think. How many women have you victimized?
Dozens. Let's Let's keep that on you a couple of years. That, Michael. Let's keep that on you a couple of years.
And that's justice. You ask me, that's justice. And Neil Singleton, we should make you a circuit court judge. That's exactly right. I think that you would absolutely get some people's minds and penises right. That's exactly what I think.
Roger Begley, you don't want what's on my FedEx [laughter] truck. Lol. Maybe I don't. All right. All Sam's Club and Chewy boxes. So, I I guess I could go around selling it to kennels and bets. I don't know. [ __ ] Who knows? There's an example of the good old buddy system at work in Perry County. There absolutely is. There absolutely is and and understand that that it's very recognizable in Perry County.
Very recognizable. I mean [ __ ] county is just 39 square miles. It's not like you can't point it out. So it's very recognizable. But also understand this this is something that happens not only at the local level but at the state and the federal level. It happens all over the place. Prosecutors at the feds and I'm friends with a prosecutor. the man was a he's a great man now. He's retired. Um and I I believe he did his job correctly. I truly do. But there's a lot of prosecutors out there at all three levels that they want the easy pickings. And those easy pickings are typically brown people. They're typically addicts. They're typically very poor. They're typically uneducated.
And they're they're easy enough to prosecute. They're easy enough to intimidate into saying, "Yes, I did it.
Yes, I'll sign off on whatever you want me to. And that that gives a nice little shiny star in that prosecutor's career that in, you know, that successful prosecution. When what it is, it's not that at all. It's just simply taking advantage of someone because they're uneducated, poor, um, ground, not able to properly mount a defense. And and you see this time and time again that that a prosecutor if they are aware that the person has the monetary funds or the ability to mount a proper defense that they're they're they're going to hold off. They're going to hold off. You'll see that time and time again or they'll come up with a very very good plea offer in order to not, you know, have the potential of losing. And it's unfortunate, but it happens at at local, state, and federal levels.
All right.
Like clockwork orange. Exactly. It's a [ __ ] shocker. You damn straight [ __ ] I mean, can you imagine that? Could you imagine that? You got old Michael Keggo over there. He's he's he's busy. He's he's driving. He's driving. He's driving to the next little lady's house where he's he's he's told her he wants some money and he's itching. He's he's got his visine because he's got the red eye. And you know, he's it's burned down there.
He's not been able to pee for a few hours, but he's sexually excited as well. Now, what would fix that? A [ __ ] shocker. Absolutely would. Absolutely would. Cuz, you know, he's probably mumbling under his breath as he's driving to this lady's house to try to spread syphilis to her. He's probably mumbling under his breath. Oh, I won't get that [ __ ] So, I mean, it's it's like negative reinforcement. The more shock, the less likely he is to continue to say that word. It works great. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT IF IT'S IF IT'S, you know, some I guess biometrically based on how full it gets, [clears throat] it's kind of interesting. I guess if he has if he has syphilis, the the head itself would be swelling whether he was sexually excited or not. So it's like a it's like a benefit either way. So he continues to get get shocked ALL THE TIME. I LIKE IT. I LIKE IT A LOT. Maybe we can, you know, patent the idea and, you know, propose that in the court system. That's what I like. All right.
Ah, here we go. I am a victim of Leanne Stevens and her buddy when she was in office. I was shot in the Holy [ __ ] I was shot in the head and she gave the person probation and only charged them with criminal assault without a weapon.
Holy [ __ ] I I honestly don't even know what to say to that. I mean, I've I've uh I've heard stories about Miss Stevens and uh some of the parties with U Mr. Vaughn.
Um I don't even know what to say to that except I am I am just so sorry. I am so so sorry. if you don't mind, um, reach out to me in in the Facebook, uh, you know, on messenger comments. I'd like to ask you some more questions about that.
Okay. Truly, good lord. Good Lord. Um, all right. I had someone reach out to me. Since we don't have Michael Kel, I will call Michael Kagel out on on Jeff Campbell on the moral. All right. So, let's pull this up. Um, this lady reached out to me.
Um, can you do me a favor? Someone sent me a message, asked me to ask you to throw a couple of names out on your show that are corrupt. Well, it ain't like I ain't going to do that.
You give me some names, I'm going to throw them out there. I absolutely are.
This is from Lesie County.
The sheriff, Billy Kallet. C O L L E T.
I'm not sure if it's Collet Colette.
I don't know how to say his name, nor do I really care, but we'll say Billy Kallet. The sheriff, Billy Kallet, who supposedly told his deputies not to harass or arrest certain drug dealers.
And the judge, William Lewis, dig into the physical court. There may have been vote buying there. All right. So, h I need some information. I need some information about the sheriff of Leslie County. [snorts] And I I said Lecher County in the show notes. Hell, send me some information about the sheriff of Lecher County, too, because I'm sure he's probably not the best in the world either. Sheriff of Lesley County, Billy Colllet. Is he telling his deputies not to arrest certain drug dealers? If he is, why so? Now, there there can be a legitimate reason for that.
The reason could be Now, here's what happens. Well, Cyia Richie could tell you this.
May have got her ass in trouble right there. I was just saying it.
There are times that law enforcement will arrest someone or we'll go to interview someone.
Here's what you got to remember.
Being part of the criminal lifestyle, you learn this at some point, usually far too late. But everybody talks.
Everyone talks. You don't even have to be in danger of serving a lot of prison time. You really don't. They're still going to talk. They're still going to talk. Now, you'll be in prison with people and prison will that they will say, "Oh, no. I would never rat or snitch on anyone." Usually the people who are saying that are exactly the ones who have snitched and ratted on other people. They're just trying to cover their own asses. Everyone talks. If you doubt that, tune in to um the next 48 [snorts] on whatever channel that [ __ ] shows on. And you'll see these murderers all the time. And it's supposed to be about good police work.
And what it's about is they bring the suspect in and the suspect they give the suspect a Coca-Cola and maybe a hamburger and they say, you know, we understand everything. And at that point, that guy tells every freaking thing that he's ever done in his life.
Yes, I killed him. So it it everyone talks. All right, Billy Collid over there. Maybe maybe I'm going to give I'm gonna start by giving the benefit of the doubt. Maybe Billy Collins [clears throat] is working an informant. Maybe there's a drug dealer out there that turned evidence, snitches on everyone, and [snorts] Billy Collin has informed his deputies to not arrest that drug dealer or this other drug dealer or this other drug dealer. Maybe that's the case.
Now, do I think that's the case? No, I don't. No, I don't. I don't. I I really don't. What I do think is the case is that if it happened, and I have no reason to think that it didn't happen.
If it happened, maybe those drug dealers have a lot of people they, you know, can swing some boats. Maybe. Or maybe those drug dealers are friends, family members, or associates of Billy Khallet, the sheriff. That's really what I kind of think. I think that Billy Khallet MIGHT BE AND I DON'T KNOW. I just got the name. Excuse me as I burp. I'm burping up my Coca-Cola.
I don't know. I just got the name yesterday. It's all I got. It's all I got. I know someone will send me some messages today and we'll talk more about the the Sheriff Billy Klet of Wesley County tomorrow and then going forward.
Like we talked about Joe Engel. We're not through talking about Joe Engel. or not. Is Billy Collid a preacher, too?
That's that's that's one of the things I'm noticing about these corrupt son of a [ __ ] who were law enforcement in in in Eastern Kentucky. They're law enforcement and they're preachers, too.
So, they want to squirt salvation into congregants against souls and they want the congregants to vote for them so they can go and be corrupt and tell their deputies not to arrest certain drug dealers. I'm guessing probably because those drug dealers are supplying drugs to the sheriff. You know, sheriff, it's law enforcement. We have to be awake and alert. No better way to be awake and alert than on meth infinity.
I'm just saying.
Seems to me seems to me that might be the case. I'm not saying it is yet, but I'm not going to hesitate to not say it.
If someone someone hint hint wink wink nudge nudge if someone will send me some more information on this Billy Collic character. You know I'd like to know what's his qualifications to be sheriff. Is it just that he got some votes? Holy hell.
[ __ ] Zach Miller his qualifications being hazard police chief evidently working [snorts] at Arby's. And you know I understood that he didn't go through all of the academy either.
seems very indicative of law enforcement in Eastern Kentucky.
I don't know. But please, by all means, send me some more information on on Billy Cot. Now, this this this judge, Brett, are you going to talk about judges? Yes, I'm going to talk about judges.
Of course, I'm going to talk about judges. Why wouldn't I talk about a judge? Judge is a person. They're a human being. They [ __ ] They take a pee except if they've got syphilis then you know it's harder to pee it burns.
Maybe they got some red eye from syphilis. I don't know. Now I'm not saying that William has got the red eye.
I'm not. But it was that note said maybe some vote buying. Now my my dad was Ray Johnson. His dad was Aaron Farmer Johnson. Farmer Johnson was tax commissioner for Hazard, Kentucky or Perry County, whatever that [ __ ] that is. And he was also a moonshiner and um he was federally charged while being tax commissioner for moonshining. He went to federal prison, Milin, Michigan is where he served his time. And while he was in prison, no [ __ ] While he was in prison, he was reelected tax commissioner. And back then the feds, they were much more lenient because, you know, they didn't have black people in there. They had it was all white people so you could send recliners and you'd wear your street clothes and do all kinds of [ __ ] back then. When brown people got in there, they decided they didn't want to do that anymore. But back then it was all white people in federal prison. He got re-elected tax commissioner AND THEY LET HIM OUT. THEY LET him out to go do the job he got elected for. And my dad would tell stories that when he was a kid, Far Johnson, they would have bags, grocery bags full of cash. And they would deliver these grocery bags full of cash to people for votes. So vote by or alcohol, you know, fifth of liquor, Jim Beam or what have you.
What's what's the uh what's the what's the real cheap [ __ ] Old old pap or some [ __ ] like that.
give him a fifth or a pint of that for a vote.
So, it would not surprise me that William Lewis would be engaged. And I don't even know the dude, but I know the area.
It would not surprise me that the honorable The Honorable The Honorable.
I'm the honorable William Lewis. Let me buy your vote.
That's you're going to have a word like honorable.
You're going to call yourself honorable and you're going to demand to be called your honor in a court of law where justice is supposed to be served.
And yet you're going to buy votes or you're going to claim that a woman that was shot in the head that the asalent did not have a weapon.
I'm not quite sure how that is the least bit honorable.
I'm not quite sure about that at all. We got a lot of problems. Got a lot of problems in this country. Let me know about this William Lewis dude.
All right. I don't uh I I will not hesitate at all. What is this? Hello Brett. Sorry to ask question. Uh Aka Soie, how to know the honest marketplaces on the [ __ ] web.
You know, I'm going I'm going to answer that for you. I am going to answer that for you usually.
And uh Akasobi, here's the thing. Um, tonight it's going to be the Cyber Crime 101 11 PM Eastern. It will broadcast on the on the Brett Johnson show um YouTube channel uh until I'm able to get um a decent following of people who want to transfer over to the Cyber Crime 101 show. All right. But it'll broadcast there. At least I think. No, I It'll broadcast on the Cyber Crime 101 channel is what it'll do on YouTube. That's what we'll do. Um, let me pull this up for you because I know those types of questions and we're going to end the show after that.
So, let's see here. See if we can boot this up and I'll share it here in a second. I think we can. Uh you all bear with me for a second as we educate this young man or young person on criminal activity on the internet. This will be kind of interesting. So we don't want the health check [ __ ] Let's go into share screen. See if it will share tour.
Let's see here. Does it? Huh?
Does Chrome window tour share? All right. So, here we have tour. And so, we're going to go to dark.fill. We won't go to the uh onion side of dark. We'll just go to the clear net sign. All right. So, here we've got your first start stop wondering how to determine a legitimate marketplace. Uh, one of the first stops that you should have is Dread. So, Dread is the basically the Reddit of the dark web. And what happened was is this um this developer criminal by the name of um by the name of Hug Bunter. Reddit shuts down all of their criminal or a lot of their criminal subreddits. He gets pissed off, decides he's going to build the Reddit of the dark web, and he does.
So your first stop should be dread. All right? And dread is a criminal forum that discusses all kinds of things. So you should do proper research. You could like go over to, you know, darknet markets. That's a subdread. And you could read about, you know, the most trusted marketplaces, criminal marketplaces around. And then finally, you'd go over to some place like, for example, Drug Up. Okay, so DrugHub is a criminal marketplace. Oddly enough, it deals mostly in drugs. So you'd go over to DrugHub and if you're Scott Blair, you might be looking for methamphetamine. Or if you're Elon Musk, you might be looking for, let's see, it says to click the circle that's open. If you're Elon Musk, you might be looking for ketamine or something like that. So So this is DrugHub. And what you would do then, so there's crystal meth for sale, meth for sale, Colombian cocaine for sale, aderall, um, cocaine, ketaman, blah, blah, blah. Now you can, now you can filter through what you want to buy and what you're looking for to determine.
First of all, you would you would go on Dread and you would find out that Drug is a trusted platform, a trusted marketplace. That does not mean that all the sellers that are on Dread are legitimate. you're going to have some scammers on there. So, what you then do is you find whatever you go to drug and you find whatever substance that you're wanting to purchase. So, say for example, I want some cartel crystal meth. I'll click on the advertisement. I'll go down here [snorts] and I'll say, "Okay, so listing type is escrow," which which what that means is that I order from this drug dealer and the money I pay the money. It doesn't go directly to the drug dealer. Instead, the marketplace holds it until the drug dealer delivers my methamphetamine to me in my mailbox. I at that point say, "HEY, I GOT MY METHOD. I'M HAPPY." And at that point the it is released to the money is released to the drug dealer. So it's escrowbased. That's not bad. Stock is available. That's good. It ships from United States to United States. That's outstanding. Yay. Um vendor is ranked at 99%.
So he's had 4774 sales of methamphetamine just on just on Drug Hub. He's had 26 disputes.
So 26 of those 4,700 sales have said, "I didn't get it. He ripped me off." Blah, blah, blah. Of the 26, he lost 11 of those. So an admin comes in and says, "Okay, what actually happened?" And the admin of DrugHub at that point, it says, "Well, you know, he did rip someone off or he did not." So you look at that and then you come down here to reviews because it's a reviewbased system as well. And whoever the buyers are, so he's got a [ __ ] ton of reviews, over 13 pages of reviews. And you can read the quality, the shipping, the overall buying experience from this specific drug dealer. All right? And that is typically the way that marketplaces operate. Now, we're going to remove that so I can have my pretty face up here again. So for marketplaces, one of the things that shadow crew does is you have to realize like I said um for cyber crime, drug deals, financial whatever for that to be successful, three things take place. You have to gather the data, the tools, uh identities, login, whatever that is. You gather the data, you commit the crime, cash it out. The big takeaway is that it takes a group of people to succeed. All right? For those group of people to succeed, you need a large communication type channel. All right? A forum type structure typically or it can be Telegram. Even though Telegram sucks because trust is not established on Telegram. That's why Telegram is such a bad platform for cyber crime. About 70% of anything advertised on Telegram criminal wise is fraudulent. It's simply a criminal trying to rip off another criminal.
on a more trusted platform like the dark web, dread, you have that large communication channel, Dread. All right, the Reddit of the dark web. So, you go there, you find out what's trusted, what the other members are saying about these other marketplaces. That gives you an idea of where you need to go to get your drugs, your fraudulent services, stolen identities, credit cards, what have you.
You then go to that platform, that marketplace.
that marketplace, Drug Hub, it uh it's it's it's really interesting the way they've built that uh it invoices you and and they don't really have a lot of money that sits on the platform itself.
So, the idea of an exit scam of the marketplace owners simply shutting everything down and stealing everyone's Bitcoin or or in this case Monero is is much lower that likelihood of that happening. So you go to the marketplace and at that point you have to realize that that trust is established in a dark web environment through trusting the platform itself. The rapport the the comments on that large communication channel and this and this and it's even better at this point because that communication channel is outside of and not part of that marketplace itself. So it's more trusting at that point. Okay. So, you're getting the idea from that communication channel. You go to the platform. At that point, you're relying on the reviews, how new the seller is, how many sales that seller has had, and you you read all of that. You read every single bit of that, and then you pull the trigger.
You buy your meth, you buy your stolen credit cards, you do whatever you want to do. Um, typically DrugHub is is a pretty solid marketplace as far as buying, you know, criminal goods and services. It's it's pretty damn good at what it does. All right. Um, so I hope that answers your question. If you want to tune back in tonight, like I said, we'll start about 11:00 p.m. Eastern and uh we can talk about that more. And I see you've got some more comments there, but I'm not going to talk about that on this show. I just want to do you a solid and and explain that to you. All right. Um, this show is is more do the right damn thing and uh calling out corruption, targeting child predators, um, seeking justice and giving people a voice who who typically have not had a voice who or who have had that voice taken away from them. All right. So, uh, for what you're talking about, I would urge you to tune in to what I'm calling the Coast to Coast of Cyber Crime Show, Cyber Crime 101 tonight, 11 p.m. Eastern on Facebook, on YouTube, and on LinkedIn, and we'll see how that [ __ ] goes. All right. Um, some people in Dread, I feel they are from this site and just make promotion for it. And you, you absolutely have that.
You know, your job your job on researching this is first to do your research. All right, that's your job.
And you need to understand that yes, there are people from DrugHub on Dread that absolutely try to market Drug Hub.
But the more involved you are on, say Dread or whatever communication channel that is, whatever forum that is, the more involved you are, the more you'll understand and start to start to get the flow, the vibe, and understand the dynamic of that specific forum or platform. So, you'll be able to tell almost inherently. I I I can tell almost inherently these days what's legitimate, what's not, who's part of the site, who's not, who's trying to plug something, who's not, you'll get to that point. And what that requires from you is simply sitting there and and reading and soaking things up. You know, if you if you immediately go to Dread or find a marketplace, you mentioned a Russian marketplace there, if you immediately just go there without doing any research or someone tells you it's good and you go there and you get ripped off. So [ __ ] what? That's your fault because you know it's a criminal environment.
You know they're all looking to tr to profit and you've not done your due diligence. So do your due diligence. Get to the point where you're able to understand who's marketing, who's not, who's telling the truth, who's not. And you can do that. So there you go. That's kind of stuff we'll be talking about.
Like I said, nothing is off topic. um on the Cyber Crime 101 show, the coast to coast of cyber crime shows. All right.
Oh, wow. No, if you do that, the feeds be coming to your door in the back of a FedEx truck or a UPS truck at delivery.
I I agree with you. My daughter gets medicine from a doctor delivered from the children's hospital there.
Undercover officers driving delivery trucks and and I actually met actually that's how I was arrested with a controlled delivery like that.
All right. My name is Brett Johnson.
We're going to close this out.
Yeah, it's time close this out. Um, tomorrow I'll listen to the audio about Michael Kegel, find out where he works.
We'll call Johnny Wooten and uh talk to him about Jeff Campbell, and uh we're just going to ask him outright, what do we need to do to get Jeff Campbell fired from the Perry County school system?
What do we need to do about that?
Because this is a man who was fantasizing about raping children and sending them messages and at [snorts] least made at least one person that I've talked to made her feel extremely uncomfortable with his advances and his comments and why he is still allowed to work as a teacher or in the school system is unacceptable. It's unacceptable. We we do not accept that at all. at all. So, we're going to handle that. We're going to I'm gonna listen to audio about Michael Kegel. I'm try to find that that audio, see where that son of a [ __ ] works, call his employer, try to get that [ __ ] fired. Okay. Try to do that. Um hopefully get some more information about the uh the sheriff of Leslie County, Billy Khallet, who is who has been said to tell some of the deputies not to arrest certain drug dealers for some reason. We'll find out.
Hopefully we'll get more information on William Lewis, the honorable or dishonorable judge over in Lesley County who might I'm not saying he was, but might have been involved in some boat viney buying schemes. So, we'll do that and then we'll handle whatever the hell else pops up is what we will do. We didn't have a chance today to talk about I mentioned genocide yesterday. We'll get to that. Um, we will get to that. I think it's an important conversation, but this other stuff is more important for us today.
Um, truly is not saying that other's not important.
You know, it's it's everything is linked. Everything is linked. I I truly believe that everything is associated with everything else to some degree.
Wanda Pard, we love you. Please have a good day. You and your family. Wanda, I truly wish the same upon you. I consider you part of my family. I respect you. I love you as well. And I hope you have a blessed, wonderful day.
I truly do. Guys, I'm Brett Johnson.
This is the Brett Johnson show. This is a new studio. We'll have some We'll have our background, everything put up hopefully by tomorrow and we'll continue from there.
We end the show the same every day. And and sometimes it might, you know, seem a little wrote. It might seem like we're just saying the words, but those words have meaning and it would do us all well to remember that.
You know, I mentioned a few shows back that um I was talking about children and [clears throat] uh you know, hug your ch child, tell them you love them even though they know it. Tell them you love them. Let them know. But we're going to end it today.
We are Eastern Kentucky.
We Hold on here. I got a visitor. I got a visitor. I got a visitor.
I got a visitor. I got a visitor. Don't I bunny? Tell them we are Eastern Kentucky, aren't we? We are. We are proud people and puppy.
We stand tall. We speak up. We do the right thing.
And we have had enough. My girlfriend's saying, "Hey, I need to go get some glasses."
saying we have had enough. More importantly, or not more importantly, but just the same, we are more than just Eastern Kentucky. And these problems that we have had enough of, it is more than just Eastern Kentucky or Kentucky. It's across the United States.
It's across the United States.
You know, these problems that we're talking about, the corruption, the favoritism, child predators, the victimization, it's something that takes place from the office of the president down to the office of the county judge executive of Perry County.
And we have had enough. [snorts] Until tomorrow, 9:00 a.m. Eastern, I'm Brett Johnson. I wish you all a wonderful blessed day and just do the right damn thing. Take care.
