Sup ya beautiful bastard. Hope you've been a fantastic Wednesday. Welcome back to the Philip

DeFranco show and let's just jump into it. And the first thing we're to talk about today is an

update on the Brookhout's situation. And as he may or may not remember, last month there was almost

universal outrage against Brooke Houts, who's a YouTuber. She of course famously accidentally

uploaded unedited footage that showed her smacking, pushing, and seemingly spitting on her dog.

The video went viral. You had people demanding that her YouTube channel be shut down, that the authorities get involved.

Brooke released an apology where she also said that she didn't spit on her dog. Also LAPD officials said that their animal cruelty task force was investigating.

And the big update to that situation is according to new reports, police have decided not to press charges.

With police reportedly telling BuzzFeed news, animal task force looked into the matter.

Obviously, they saw the video the public had seen. They determined it didn't rise to the level of animal cruelty.

With TMZ, also citing an LAPD source who said that there wasn't enough evidence

to support criminal charges. Houtts has been allowed to keep custody of the dog throughout this

investigation, but LAPD officials said they would reopen her case if new evidence was presented.

Now online, many have expressed their disappointment over this news, with some also saying that

while the police might not be able to take action, the will always remember house as an animal abuser some saying that the system is a failure people calling out the LAPD and then what seemed to be a common thread

was kind of the mentioning of the criminal justice system and the online social justice system with one

tweet reading the police department forgave you but remember the internet never forgets though

and every generation that has access to the internet will know who you are dog abuser and i guess where I want to end this story update is kind of a question I mean one what are your thoughts in general regarding this topic but also two what are your thoughts kind of regarding that last note that while the law says you know we can't actually actually charge anything criminal this idea that there is a second system right though the public in general the the online continuing knowledge continually recognizing and reminding people of this exposed moment.

And actually kind of connected to this line of thinking, this general headspace, we have another massive update regarding a story that we covered multiple times over the past few years.

And that story is around Brock Turner, who some of the media have called an ex-Stanford swimmer, others calling rapist Brock Turner, others

saying registered sex offender Brock Turner.

And understandably, in the past, he has been the focal point of his story.
