| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. Welcome back to Crime Weekly. I'm Stephanie Harlow. And I'm Derek LaVaser. So today we're diving into part two of the Tomla-Horsford case. And Derek and I talked about this a little bit on Crime Weekly News. And we've talked about it a little bit over the past week. Yeah. Great response to the first part. Crazy. Blew up. It went crazy. Appreciate you guys being here. It's such an important case. And like I said, I think that a lot of people saw it kind of come and then go and |
| 0:40.2 | they didn't look deeper into it. I was one of those people. I'm sad to say. I'm so glad that I'm |
| 0:45.9 | looking deeper into it now because there is so much there. And we're going to talk about it today. |
| 0:51.6 | Yeah. People have been weighing in on the comments, on the |
| 0:54.2 | social media posts. And also it seems, and I guess I'm just old, but what I'm seeing a lot in |
| 0:59.8 | the comments, the reason that the video did so well, at least on YouTube, audio is different. |
| 1:03.7 | And you may be familiar with this, but people are hyping it. You know what that is? |
| 1:08.4 | I see hyping things, but I don't know what it means. So essentially, because I saw it and I'm like, what are we doing here? What is this? What's happening? And essentially you guys... It's like, why are you hyping me? Yeah, why are you hyping us up? And essentially, if you're watching on YouTube right now, you have the ability to hype the video for free. And by doing so for smaller creators, |
| 1:29.3 | which relatively speaking, we're a smaller creator on YouTube, you can hype the video, |
| 1:34.0 | which allows it to be seen by more people. So if you feel inclined to do so, |
| 1:37.9 | hype the video. And that's what happened on this last episode, which is why compared to some |
| 1:42.7 | of our other recent cases, this one did exponentially |
| 1:46.6 | better because you guys basically promoted it and that's what led to more exposure. So thank you |
| 1:52.0 | for that. Now I know a new thing. Hyping. Hyping. Hyping is a thing. Hyping. Hiping on YouTube. |
| 1:56.6 | If we're on audio, just leave a review, leave a rating. That's what helps. Or go to YouTube and hype. |
| 2:01.8 | Yeah, do both. How about that? Can we be greedy and just do both? Yeah. If you will hype us, we shall hype you. We will hype you. So we have a lot more to talk about today. We're going to dive into it. Is there anything you want to say before we do? No, I was trying not to be influenced by you guys because when you go read the social media comments, you guys are ahead of us or ahead of me, I should say. So I try not to be, I try to stay as impartial as I can. I think I did a pretty good job. So I'm right there with you in the story where we are, where we last left off. And I know I asked you, you know, all of you, but specifically, Derek, like, don't look into this yourself. I didn't. So we can kind of unfold it. He didn't. And I know he didn't because I talked to him about it. So let's just dive right in. Let's go back to the morning of November 4th, 2018, when the body of Tomlowe-Horseford was found face down in the |
| 2:52.3 | backyard of the home of Jean Myers. Jean's quote-un quote aunt, Madeline Lombardi, was the first |
| 2:59.6 | person to see Tam, and the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office interviewed her formally on November 7th. |
| 3:07.0 | Now, we remember that Bridget Fuller, who I'm glad everybody agrees with me is sketchy and off because I thought I was kind of being mean, just because I get impressions of people and I'm like, ugh, I don't really like this person. Not saying she's guilty of anything, but. Well, that's the thing, right? Like, it's one, you can acknowledge that she's |
| 3:24.6 | off and not, you're not inferring that she's guilty. Like, two things can be true here where you could agree that her approach and her mannerisms are suspicious as hell, and yet it may be unrelated to what happened at Tomola. So that's, that's where I draw the line as well. Like you can still feel a certain |
| 3:41.6 | way about her and not think she's guilty of murder. I don't know where I sit on it right now. |
| 3:46.0 | But I think anybody with half a brain would acknowledge that her behavior and her response to all |
