The John Kobylt Show Hour 2 (05/01) - John talks with San Luis Obispo District Attorney Dan Dow about the disturbing case of a transgender inmate convicted of brutally murdering his own baby—now shockingly set for early parole due to Prop 57. Dow shares the horrifying details and explains why he's urging Governor Newsom to step in and stop the release. John is baffled by Californians continuing to vote for policies allowing such injustices and encourages listeners to push back. Then, John breaks down Kamala Harris's bizarre speech in San Francisco, including her strange elephant metaphor, and reacts to new polls showing Harris as a leading Democratic candidate for governor and even president. Plus, could a massive earthquake reshape Northern California’s coast?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty.
Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio
app every day Monday through Friday. We'run from one until
four and then after four o'clock. Let's say you were
doing something silly like working and you missed the show.
That's what the podcast is for. John Cobelt Show on demand.
Millions of people this year. I've downloaded the podcast, so
(00:24):
be one of them. No reason you can't hear it.
Hear the show every day. All right, this is the
latest atrocity. I mean, I cannot believe how the progressives
have destroyed the criminal justice system in California and you
just let them.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
You just sit there.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
We're gonna have the San Luis Obispo District Attorney coming
on now, Dan Dow, this is a case. It's a
really strange case. There's a man named Herbert David Brown
the third. He has since changed his name to Ali
and claims he's a woman. But when he was claiming
(01:05):
to be a guy, he had a twenty two month
old daughter that he murdered. We'll find out how that
happened in just a moment. He got fifteen years to life,
but after twelve years. They're going to release him. He
got granted parole on October thirtieth of last year. This
was second degree murder fifteen to life. He's only served
(01:27):
twelve and there's no question he killed his daughter and
somewhere along the lay along the way, he decided he
was a woman. Well, the pro board is releasing him,
and Dan Dall, Saint Louis biss Bispo County District Attorney
is asking Governor Newsom to reverse the decision.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Let's get dan on here. How are you.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I'm well, John, Thank you so much for having me.
This is a really important issue, as you're pointing.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Out, Yeah, can you tell us what this guy did
to his daughter?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh my goodness, it's one of the most horrific cases
I've had to personally handle prior to handing it off
to my deputy DA and when I was elected while
prosecuting this case. But then Herbert David Brown the third
was a meth user and he had temporary custody and
care of his twenty two month young precious daughter, Lily
(02:24):
because the baby's mother had to be out of town
doing some other things. And unfortunately Brown, while addicted, I
believe to methamphetamine, and the evidence shows, and he's admitted
to using the methamphetamine, he inflicted serious injuries. Grave injuries
included smashing her skull, bruises all over her body. The
(02:48):
investigation essentially yielded that she had been sick and not
well and wasn't able to eat, and because he was
more concerned about his own methamphetamine fix and whatever other
things he wanted to do in his life, didn't have
the necessary patience to deal with a twenty two month old,
and so he inflicted harm against her that led to
her death. We charged the case initially as a second
(03:12):
degree murder because we could not we didn't have sufficient
evidence to prove that he intended to kill her, but
that he was instead so grossly negligent in caring for her,
and that he inflicted the kind of abuse towards her
that he should have known that it was likely to
cause great bodily injury or death. And so that's what
California law allows for a second degree murder. It's basically
(03:35):
called implied malice. So while we couldn't prove intent to kill,
we could prove the general intent to commit really heinous
acts against his young, precious daughter.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
And in the meantime he's claiming now that he's a
woman and changed his name to Ali. You know anything
about those circumstances, you.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Know interesting my office. I don't believe my office has
ever received any formal paperwork except from the Department of
Corrections when they send paperwork. And now the court refers,
or at least the Pearle board refers to him as
Alie Hazel Brown, and they're using the pronouns she and
(04:20):
her and so I've never been given any formal notice
of any transition that the person went through or anything.
But I do know that the inmate is currently housed
at the Substance Abuse treatment facility in Corcoran. I believe
they can take both female and male inmates. I'm not
sure where the inmate is housed.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
We had a case down here of infamous case James Tubbs,
and he was molesting a young girl, among other things.
Later they found he'd committed a murder and he switched
allegedly to be Hannah Tubbs, and there was recorded evidence
telling his dad making it clear he's faking it because
(04:57):
then he'd get to be assigned to a women's and
he'd have an easier time of it. And so after
that case, I'm really suspicious about guys who, while they're
in prison suddenly want to switch and maybe get what
they think is a more comfortable.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Deal out of it.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
And just this week in the California Senate there was
testimony taken when they were discussing this very issue of
whether people that were born male should ever be assigned
to women's prison, and I read the statement of one
of the people testifying that basically the status of the
law in California is that if an inmate claims that
they are the opposite gender, that they will get housed
(05:36):
in the opposite gender facility. Now, I don't know the
ins and outs of how it works, but I do
think that what you're concluding makes sense. People that have
committed these kinds of crimes against children or sex crimes,
if they are in a men's prison, typically they'd be
put in what they call administrative segregation, which would actually
(05:58):
keep them relatively safe from the mineral population. However, they
probably would have much more freedom if they are allowed
to move into the one that you know, quote unquote
matches their new gender identity. But this isn't new, you know,
in twenty seventeen, the first California inmate was given state
(06:18):
funded sex reassignment surgery. And I know that's not exactly
what we're here probably to talk about, no.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
But it's it's just part of this whole, just to me,
the degradation of the criminal justice system. First of all,
he's only getting twelve years and they're releasing him. And
James Tubbs pulled a scam, and I suspect this guy
may be pulling a scam and no questions asked. Somebody
wants to spend his time in a women's prison or
(06:44):
a mixed prison, and it's like, yeah, sure, whatever you say.
And it's just it's insanity now.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
It is. And to think of any adult who is
convicted of murdering a twenty two months old being released
before serving the entire you know, min them, which should
be fifteen years to life under the law that existed
at the time he was sentenced. That was prior to Prop.
Fifty seven. The law required that if you're sentenced to
a two life either fifteen or twenty five or forty
(07:11):
to life, you were required to serve every year, every
day of the fifteen or the twenty five whatever the
case might be before even being given a hearing to
see if you might be released Prop. Fifty seven. They
told us it didn't apply to violent felons, and it
was false. The new early out didn't apply to violent felons.
But what they did was they created in Prop. Fifty
(07:33):
seven legal authority for the Department of Corrections to award
new sentencing credits, even to people serving sentences on murders,
which you can Why.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Does the parole board want to let out a guy
who beat his daughter or shook his daughter to death
at twenty two months? Why would they want to release
him regardless of the sentencing guidelines that they've created. He
could spend the rest of his life in prison. What
is it that they that they look at and say, yeah, sure,
let him go. I mean, he's a relatively young guy still.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Right, Well, California law has changed. The regulations that now
apply make it almost to where the Parole Board commissioners
believe they're compelled to release them if their behavior in
prison has been relatively crime free for a significant period
of time before their parole hearing. So they do not
really consider the gravity of the crime, the offense that
(08:26):
they committed. They look at their behavior in prison, which
is not the metric that we the voters voted for.
This is something that has come up out of regulation
and changes, some statutory changes.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Even killing his own daughter fractured skull, emerhaging in her brain.
I mean, this isn't a garden variety crime. It's not
like he robbed a bank and pistol with a bank clerk.
This was that's right, busting up his daughter's.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Head, which is why we have lost our way in California.
You hit it on a point when you said the
criminal justice All the reforms that the legislature and these
initiatives have done have been reforms of the criminal justice
system here in our community. Because one of our advocates
told me as the DA how frustrated all of our
victims are that they're never considered as important throughout the process.
(09:17):
It struck us, and we change the name of the
system to the criminal and Victim Justice system because victims
aren't getting much justice. Where's the justice for baby Lilly?
So when I write a letter to the governor, when
I write a letter to the legislature about laws that
need to be changed, I'm calling it the criminal and
Victim Justice system. To help at least as we talk
about the matter that we're considering the fact that it
(09:38):
will impact victims. All of these reforms AB one oh nine,
Prop forty seven, and Prop fifty seven have focused on
making things easier for the offenders and much more difficult
and really an insult to most victims of crime.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Did you get a response from Newsomber's office yet?
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Not yet, But I am encouraged that there are many
people in our community on social media and up now
the story is spreading even nationally. I saw it posted
in Charlottesville, Virginia on a newspaper yesterday. I think that
there will be significant pressure on the governor. I'm hopeful
that his folks will, you know, guide him and direct
him that this is the right thing to do, is
(10:16):
to reverse this decision, but that it's not too late
for your listeners to send Governor Newsom a letter. Just
they should refer to inmate Alie Hazel Brown, who was
convicted as Herbert David Brown, and on our DA website
we have a letter and you know, they're welcome to
(10:39):
borrow from that, but they should probably refer to inmate
Brown's CDCR prisoner number, which is a y two two
two seven A Y two two two seven and I
wanted for a moment, John, recognize that baby Lily's mother,
Dawn summer Ross. She connected with me in the last
few days via social media. She testified at the hearing
(11:01):
in October and urged the board, along with our deputy
District Attorney who was there, urged the commission not to
release in Maate Brown. The most recent violent act that
inmate Brown committed was in twenty twenty two, so just
a short two years ago. Part of that hearing, he
was still being written up for a violent acts in
(11:24):
the prison.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
So so he's not on good behavior.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
That no, he's not on good behavior.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
All right, I've got to go, but let's keep in touch,
all right. An if you got a response back from
the governor, let us know immediately, all right.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
I sure will thank you so much for covering this.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Dan do San Luis Dan dowrather San Luis Obispo County
District Attorney.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
More coming up.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
That is a really terrible story we just did. Huh.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I hope you get involved in this one, because you
know a little twenty two month old girl should not
die because her whacked out meth ed daddy shuck and
beat her to death. And that's what happened to this girl,
Lily Brown got killed by her dad, Herbert David Brown,
(12:20):
and another one claiming to be a woman, Ali, and
you got to use the new name Alie Hazel Brown.
I think you should write to Governor Newsom's office and
his correctional number is A Y two two two seven,
a Y twenty two twenty seven and protest that he's
(12:42):
being paroled. Newsom could reverse the parole.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
I mean he's.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Twelve years twelve years he got for brutalizing his little daughter,
fractured skull, hemorrhaging.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
He was lying about it.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
He claim named that all the bruises on her body
were from playing and the dog, their dog, pulled on
a leash and slammed her into a door.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Jam I guess the.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Dog was doing that repeatedly, over and over again, and
she kept hitting her head against the doorknob. That's just now,
that's a life sentence because he's psychotic. I don't care
if he's on meth or not. He's psychotic. He probably
has a lot of brain damage.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
How ugh.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
This Prop fifty seven that went on the ballot, it
was the sequel to forty seven. Fifty seven provided like
a freeway out of prison for many violent criminals. They
lied to us, Jerry Brown lied to us and said
it was not going to be used for violent felons.
And look at this ten years later. Now a baby
(13:51):
killer killed his daughter and he gets released after only
twelve years and they say, well, you know if he
behaves himself, and he wasn't. He was getting written up
as little as three years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
That's all. This is so sick.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
But you vote for this stuff because you believe them.
How come not one of these was stopped? How come
people never change their votes? Last hour, it was about
fifty five Democrats blocking a bill, gutting a bill that
(14:38):
would make buying teenage girls and boys for sex on
the street, would make it a felony.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
These Democrats blocked it.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Why do you vote for They're making it easy for
people to buy teenagers for sex, the Progressive Democrats and
Sacramento and here the pres Democrats created this Prop fifty seven,
lied to the public, and now they're letting out baby killers.
Baby is there anything worse than a guy who violently
(15:12):
destroys the brain of his own daughter.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
And he gets out. I don't think there's any.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Crime anymore that said sufficiently disgusts and angers and offends
people to finally say enough. I don't think there is.
If this one doesn't do it, I don't know what
to say. I mean, it's totally lawless now and he's
not that old. That's just nuts. I saw it anyway.
(15:46):
Ali Hazel Brown's his name, Go look up this case.
We're gonna stay in touch with Dan daw And again
he's trying to get Governor Newsom to reverse the border
parole hearing. There's a there's a new pullout and aggregate
of polls that said Newsom is only the fifth best
choice among Democratic voters to be the nominee for president.
(16:12):
He's got four people in front of him, including Kamala Harris.
You know, his presidential campaign is going to be very difficult.
And if he thinks he's going to run on parolling
a guy who destroyed the brain of his two month
old of his two year old daughter, I just cannot
(16:35):
believe the Newsom is actually going to run around the
country campaigning to run the United States after leaving behind
this disaster, including guys getting out early for killing their daughters.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I just.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
We come back. The leading candidate. I'll go through the poll,
tell you all the candidates that are listed, but the
leading candidate is still Kamala Harris, not only for president
on the Democratic side, but for governor.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
What are you doing in there?
Speaker 6 (17:10):
I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
I'm putting together my newscat. Okay, I'm looking very hard.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Oka's a little camera on her and I can see
her making gestures. So we come back. We've got Kamala
Harris material. She came out of hiding and gave a speech,
and she uncorked a doozy. I don't think it's right
(17:40):
up to Dorito's bag quality, but it's still a good one.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
That's next has a local spin, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (17:45):
It does.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
Yes, you're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Mars Moistline Friday.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
You want to be part of the Moistline eight seven
seven moist eighty six eight seven seven, Moistay eight six
for if you missed part of the show already. That's
what the podcast is for. John Coleblt show on demand
on the iHeart app. You want to hear the interview
I just had with the San Luis Obispo Da Dan
daw about this baby killer daughter killer being released unless
(18:17):
Newsome reverses the decision. His name is Ali Brown. That's
his female name. He's also known as Herbert Brown. That's
his male name. Go listen to it on the podcast
and see if you can make sense of it. All right,
let's see what have we got coming up? Yeah, Alex
Stone will be here at three o'clock. The real ID
goes into effect in a matter of days. If you
(18:38):
go to the airport if you don't have your real
ID driver's license. I don't know what happens. It could
be a hassle mandatory federal law. A lot of people ignored.
They've been trying to put this in place for twenty years.
Alex will talk about it coming up.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Kamala Harris crawled out of wherever she was hiding to
give a speech, and Kamala you had to pay if
you wanted to watch or do it in person. Was
in San Francisco. It was full of Democrats and if
you wanted to see it, streaming online. You had to
(19:14):
pay two twenty five bucks, but there's no reason to
do that because you knew the best parts of the
speech we're going to be played today on our show.
And she did not disappoint. This is Kamala Harris. I'm
sure she was. I mean, i'd watched. I didn't watch
the whole thing. I just saw a couple of clips.
(19:36):
But I'm sure she was just spewing the usual, you know,
cliches and platitudes and nonsense that comes out of her
empty head. And then she made a weird turn and
started talking about elephants.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Play cut two.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Who saw that video from a couple of weeks ago,
the one of the elephants at the San Diego Zoo
during the earthquake. Google it if you've not seen it.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
So that scene has been on my mind.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Everybody's asking me what you've been thinking about these days. Well,
so in the video for those.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Who haven't seen it, here those elephants were and as
soon as they felt the earth shaking beneath their feet,
they got in the circle and stood next to each other.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
To protect the most vulnerable.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Think about it.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
What a powerful metaphor, because we know those who try
to incite fear are most effective when they divide and conquer,
when they separate the herd, when they try to make
(21:00):
everyone think they are alone.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
The hell.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But in the face of crisis, the lesson.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Is don't don't scatter.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
That's the lesson. Don't scatter. Stand in a circle. Number
one choice among Democratic voters for president in twenty twenty eight,
number one choice for governor in twenty twenty eight among
Democratic voters among all voters here in California.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
How about that.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Here's another clip and this is when she started. I
guess she's criticizing Trump about his first hundred days.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Play cut three.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I am not here tonight to offer all the answers you.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
I'm here to say this, you don't have one.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
You are not alone, and we are all in this together.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Wow, and straight talk.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Things are probably going to get worse before.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
They get better, straight talk, but we are ready for it.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Ready for what.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
We are not going to scatter. We are going to
stand together. Everyone a leader.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Wait stop, stop, stop in a second.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
So, I guess we're all elephants, right, Yeah, you know
how elephants will will join together like I'll wrap my
trunk around your tail. Unless you want to wrap your
trunk around my tail. Well, you got to choose either
in front or you're in body.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
Get a scatter you.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You can't scatter choice. We're all in this together.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
Well I'm a scatterer.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Place more and emerge.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
You have a special role to play. Organizing is as
important as ever, Mobilizing is as important as ever. Running
for office is as important as ever. So please, everyone here,
please keep doing what you are doing.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And to everyone, what are they doing?
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Let's lock it.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
In, lock it in, cheer up for the hard work ahead.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Please what am I locking in?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Remember this I loves.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
The key is ours. It doesn't belong to whoever is in.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
The White House.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
It belongs to you.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
It belongs to us.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It belongs to we the people. A pro found you
want to hear the poll?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Okay, they looked at California. Globe looked at an aggregate
of polls, about a dozen of them in the last
two months, and found across the country, Kamala Harris is
the leading Democratic candidate for Democrats with twenty seven twenty
seven percent support twenty seven percent. Listen to this all
(24:31):
star lineup. Second Pete budajetg At sixteen percent. Alexandria Ocassio
Cortes in third place. She makes Kamala sound like a
genius third place thirteen percent. Corey Booker at eight percent.
(24:53):
Oh you know what, I never played. I never played
him singing on the Capitol steps. We'd saved that the
other day and I forgot about it, and then News
Simpson fifth. He's behind Kanalla Bodhage Edge, AOC and Corey Booker,
(25:14):
who's the new Jersey Senator. He's in fifth place. Meantime,
he's on the verge of releasing a baby killer. Guy
killed his daughter, and he hasn't done anything to stop
what the legislature is doing and allowing people to buy
(25:35):
teenagers for sex on the street.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
It's not stopping that either.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh my god, do you know most of the state
does not want him to run for president, but he
has no interest in being governor anymore. That's how he's doing,
like the stupid podcasts. Two podcasts, and he's failed and
(26:03):
he can't fix all the failures.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
It's too far gone.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
You really think he thinks he failed?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
He I think he knows he's got to do something
different for his public image, which is why he's doing
those podcasts with Republicans or conservatives, like he's trying to
find a new identity, a new formula to present himself.
You know, he's a shape shifter. He's a phony. I
don't think he has any real beliefs he cares about.
(26:30):
He just sells whatever he thinks he's gonna sell in
a given moment, and he knows he has got to
sell something else. He can't sell what he did in California.
I mean, it's such a disaster. But now he's in
fifth place. Also, he still has that that ban on
(26:52):
buying gas powered cars that hasn't changed. Virginia reversed its decision.
Virginia a few years ago had said we were gonna
copy California's electric car laws and we're going to ban
gas powered laws gas powered cars in twenty thirty five,
just like California, they were they were locked in in sync.
(27:14):
And the other day the governor repealed that law. So
other states are backing away from it. Oh who else?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Did I read? Maryland too?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
The Democratic governor of the air Wes Moore, he's also
backed away from an electric vehicle mandate.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
You're listening to John Cobels on Demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Did you see this new earthquake risk?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
Is this the northern California one?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Yeah, it could sink a large swath of California. It's
a monster earthquake that could happen. It would cause some
coastal areas to sink by more than six feet, so
you'd have massive flooding. It would reshape the whole coast
(28:03):
from well in the Eureka area in Arcata all the
way up to Washington, Oregon. In Washington, the flooding would
expand by one hundred and sixteen square miles. This is
from a study that was published on Monday in the
(28:23):
National Academy of Sciences journal called Proceedings.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And this.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Flooding area would be two and a half times the
size of San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
Six feet is huge, Yeah, that is.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
I mean it would just collapse because they always said
that the California is going to fall into the ocean,
and this is what they meant. Literally, it would go
underwater because I guess the quake would push up.
Speaker 7 (28:54):
I don't understand why we can't prevent something like this
from happening. I mean, I'm no scientists, clearly, literally, how
would you.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Suggest that I don't know.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
So powerful that would raise the ocean six feet or
lower the land six feet.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
Is anybody working on preventing earthquakes?
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I'd like to know they're still trying to figure out
a warning system. I know that works better than five seconds.
The next earthquake could be magnitude eight or higher.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
I want to be dead.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
You're taking any trips up to northern California.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
I have family there. I used to live in Northern California.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I know as soon as you go, this will happen.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
I know, so I'm not going to go. I am
not going.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
There's eight thousand people that live in a floodplain in
the Cascadia coastal region, but if you have this particular earthquake,
it would triple to more than twenty two thousand. It's
called the subsidence is the term for what would be happening.
(30:05):
This is this is just fantastic. I wouldn't say that
there's been more than eleven great earthquakes off the shore
over the last six to seven thousand years. It happens
every two to eight hundred years, and I guess we're
getting due.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
You know, that's the worst feeling is to just not
know something's going to happen, but you know it's going
to happen. That's how I feel about earthquakes. That's what
keeps me up at night. You know what's going to happen,
You just don't know what.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Do you know?
Speaker 3 (30:37):
You remember the one in Japan in twenty eleven. It
was I think that was the one.
Speaker 6 (30:42):
That there's been so many nuclear.
Speaker 7 (30:44):
Reactor Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
That was a nine point one and it caused some
of the land to sink by up to three feet.
This would cause the land to sink six feet. They
had two in Alaska in nineteen sixty four that caused
the land to sink six feet. In fact, that created
(31:08):
a tsunami. I think that's the only tsunami that really
affected California in the last one hundred years. I made
it to Marina del Rey if I remember correctly.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
What year was that, nineteen sixty four?
Speaker 6 (31:21):
Okay, it wasn't around.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
In nineteen sixty they'd had a nine point five in Chile,
eight feet of sinking. So there's one.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
Coming and you wonder why I'm nervous.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Well, it wouldn't affect southern California. That's what I'm saying,
is like, yeah, they're still up there.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
I'm not going to but we're still due for a
big one, so we'll have our own issue.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
We are.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
It's been it's been over thirty years now, it's been
thirty one years since the last big one, So they
tend to come every thirty years here in southern California.
Thanks John, minutes away. Not one of these little baby
quakes four eight.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Yeah, I'm okay with those if I know they're going
to stay that way.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
That again, it's the unknown guarantee guarantee. It happens while
you're in the.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
Shower though, Oh I'm sure. That's why I take very
quick showers every day, is it?
Speaker 4 (32:19):
What? Huh?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Absolutely? Yes, yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:21):
In fact, I think it was yesterday or today.
Speaker 7 (32:24):
I thought about it and I thought, oh God, let
me get out of here because I just had my
I just was envisioning calling in to Gary and Shannon saying, uh, yeah,
I'm in my towel.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Yes, it happened again. Role I'm in the shower. I
can't come in because God knows what.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
It's got to be fascinating to have a camera follow
you around all day.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
That's why I'm so sleep deprived.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Alex Stone coming up next, real ID, this is this
is real. It's coming this week. If you go on
a plane, you gotta show it.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Do you have it?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Deb remark live in the CAFI twenty four hour Newsroom.
Speaker 5 (33:00):
Eight.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
You've been listening to The John Cobalt Show podcast. You
can always hear the show live on KFI AM six
forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course, anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty.
Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio
app every day Monday through Friday. We'run from one until
four and then after four o'clock. Let's say you were
doing something silly like working and you missed the show.
That's what the podcast is for. John Cobelt Show on demand.
Millions of people this year. I've downloaded the podcast, so
(00:24):
be one of them. No reason you can't hear it.
Hear the show every day. All right, this is the
latest atrocity. I mean, I cannot believe how the progressives
have destroyed the criminal justice system in California and you
just let them.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
You just sit there.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
We're gonna have the San Luis Obispo District Attorney coming
on now, Dan Dow, this is a case. It's a
really strange case. There's a man named Herbert David Brown
the third. He has since changed his name to Ali
and claims he's a woman. But when he was claiming
(01:05):
to be a guy, he had a twenty two month
old daughter that he murdered. We'll find out how that
happened in just a moment. He got fifteen years to life,
but after twelve years. They're going to release him. He
got granted parole on October thirtieth of last year. This
was second degree murder fifteen to life. He's only served
(01:27):
twelve and there's no question he killed his daughter and
somewhere along the lay along the way, he decided he
was a woman. Well, the pro board is releasing him,
and Dan Dall, Saint Louis biss Bispo County District Attorney
is asking Governor Newsom to reverse the decision.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Let's get dan on here. How are you.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I'm well, John, Thank you so much for having me.
This is a really important issue, as you're pointing.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Out, Yeah, can you tell us what this guy did
to his daughter?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh my goodness, it's one of the most horrific cases
I've had to personally handle prior to handing it off
to my deputy DA and when I was elected while
prosecuting this case. But then Herbert David Brown the third
was a meth user and he had temporary custody and
care of his twenty two month young precious daughter, Lily
(02:24):
because the baby's mother had to be out of town
doing some other things. And unfortunately Brown, while addicted, I
believe to methamphetamine, and the evidence shows, and he's admitted
to using the methamphetamine, he inflicted serious injuries. Grave injuries
included smashing her skull, bruises all over her body. The
(02:48):
investigation essentially yielded that she had been sick and not
well and wasn't able to eat, and because he was
more concerned about his own methamphetamine fix and whatever other
things he wanted to do in his life, didn't have
the necessary patience to deal with a twenty two month old,
and so he inflicted harm against her that led to
her death. We charged the case initially as a second
(03:12):
degree murder because we could not we didn't have sufficient
evidence to prove that he intended to kill her, but
that he was instead so grossly negligent in caring for her,
and that he inflicted the kind of abuse towards her
that he should have known that it was likely to
cause great bodily injury or death. And so that's what
California law allows for a second degree murder. It's basically
(03:35):
called implied malice. So while we couldn't prove intent to kill,
we could prove the general intent to commit really heinous
acts against his young, precious daughter.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
And in the meantime he's claiming now that he's a
woman and changed his name to Ali. You know anything
about those circumstances, you.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Know interesting my office. I don't believe my office has
ever received any formal paperwork except from the Department of
Corrections when they send paperwork. And now the court refers,
or at least the Pearle board refers to him as
Alie Hazel Brown, and they're using the pronouns she and
(04:20):
her and so I've never been given any formal notice
of any transition that the person went through or anything.
But I do know that the inmate is currently housed
at the Substance Abuse treatment facility in Corcoran. I believe
they can take both female and male inmates. I'm not
sure where the inmate is housed.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
We had a case down here of infamous case James Tubbs,
and he was molesting a young girl, among other things.
Later they found he'd committed a murder and he switched
allegedly to be Hannah Tubbs, and there was recorded evidence
telling his dad making it clear he's faking it because
(04:57):
then he'd get to be assigned to a women's and
he'd have an easier time of it. And so after
that case, I'm really suspicious about guys who, while they're
in prison suddenly want to switch and maybe get what
they think is a more comfortable.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Deal out of it.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
And just this week in the California Senate there was
testimony taken when they were discussing this very issue of
whether people that were born male should ever be assigned
to women's prison, and I read the statement of one
of the people testifying that basically the status of the
law in California is that if an inmate claims that
they are the opposite gender, that they will get housed
(05:36):
in the opposite gender facility. Now, I don't know the
ins and outs of how it works, but I do
think that what you're concluding makes sense. People that have
committed these kinds of crimes against children or sex crimes,
if they are in a men's prison, typically they'd be
put in what they call administrative segregation, which would actually
(05:58):
keep them relatively safe from the mineral population. However, they
probably would have much more freedom if they are allowed
to move into the one that you know, quote unquote
matches their new gender identity. But this isn't new, you know,
in twenty seventeen, the first California inmate was given state
(06:18):
funded sex reassignment surgery. And I know that's not exactly
what we're here probably to talk about, no.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
But it's it's just part of this whole, just to me,
the degradation of the criminal justice system. First of all,
he's only getting twelve years and they're releasing him. And
James Tubbs pulled a scam, and I suspect this guy
may be pulling a scam and no questions asked. Somebody
wants to spend his time in a women's prison or
(06:44):
a mixed prison, and it's like, yeah, sure, whatever you say.
And it's just it's insanity now.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
It is. And to think of any adult who is
convicted of murdering a twenty two months old being released
before serving the entire you know, min them, which should
be fifteen years to life under the law that existed
at the time he was sentenced. That was prior to Prop.
Fifty seven. The law required that if you're sentenced to
a two life either fifteen or twenty five or forty
(07:11):
to life, you were required to serve every year, every
day of the fifteen or the twenty five whatever the
case might be before even being given a hearing to
see if you might be released Prop. Fifty seven. They
told us it didn't apply to violent felons, and it
was false. The new early out didn't apply to violent felons.
But what they did was they created in Prop. Fifty
(07:33):
seven legal authority for the Department of Corrections to award
new sentencing credits, even to people serving sentences on murders,
which you can Why.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Does the parole board want to let out a guy
who beat his daughter or shook his daughter to death
at twenty two months? Why would they want to release
him regardless of the sentencing guidelines that they've created. He
could spend the rest of his life in prison. What
is it that they that they look at and say, yeah, sure,
let him go. I mean, he's a relatively young guy still.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
Right, Well, California law has changed. The regulations that now
apply make it almost to where the Parole Board commissioners
believe they're compelled to release them if their behavior in
prison has been relatively crime free for a significant period
of time before their parole hearing. So they do not
really consider the gravity of the crime, the offense that
(08:26):
they committed. They look at their behavior in prison, which
is not the metric that we the voters voted for.
This is something that has come up out of regulation
and changes, some statutory changes.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Even killing his own daughter fractured skull, emerhaging in her brain.
I mean, this isn't a garden variety crime. It's not
like he robbed a bank and pistol with a bank clerk.
This was that's right, busting up his daughter's.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Head, which is why we have lost our way in California.
You hit it on a point when you said the
criminal justice All the reforms that the legislature and these
initiatives have done have been reforms of the criminal justice
system here in our community. Because one of our advocates
told me as the DA how frustrated all of our
victims are that they're never considered as important throughout the process.
(09:17):
It struck us, and we change the name of the
system to the criminal and Victim Justice system because victims
aren't getting much justice. Where's the justice for baby Lilly?
So when I write a letter to the governor, when
I write a letter to the legislature about laws that
need to be changed, I'm calling it the criminal and
Victim Justice system. To help at least as we talk
about the matter that we're considering the fact that it
(09:38):
will impact victims. All of these reforms AB one oh nine,
Prop forty seven, and Prop fifty seven have focused on
making things easier for the offenders and much more difficult
and really an insult to most victims of crime.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Did you get a response from Newsomber's office yet?
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Not yet, But I am encouraged that there are many
people in our community on social media and up now
the story is spreading even nationally. I saw it posted
in Charlottesville, Virginia on a newspaper yesterday. I think that
there will be significant pressure on the governor. I'm hopeful
that his folks will, you know, guide him and direct
him that this is the right thing to do, is
(10:16):
to reverse this decision, but that it's not too late
for your listeners to send Governor Newsom a letter. Just
they should refer to inmate Alie Hazel Brown, who was
convicted as Herbert David Brown, and on our DA website
we have a letter and you know, they're welcome to
(10:39):
borrow from that, but they should probably refer to inmate
Brown's CDCR prisoner number, which is a y two two
two seven A Y two two two seven and I
wanted for a moment, John, recognize that baby Lily's mother,
Dawn summer Ross. She connected with me in the last
few days via social media. She testified at the hearing
(11:01):
in October and urged the board, along with our deputy
District Attorney who was there, urged the commission not to
release in Maate Brown. The most recent violent act that
inmate Brown committed was in twenty twenty two, so just
a short two years ago. Part of that hearing, he
was still being written up for a violent acts in
(11:24):
the prison.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
So so he's not on good behavior.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
That no, he's not on good behavior.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
All right, I've got to go, but let's keep in touch,
all right. An if you got a response back from
the governor, let us know immediately, all right.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
I sure will thank you so much for covering this.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Dan do San Luis Dan dowrather San Luis Obispo County
District Attorney.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
More coming up.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
That is a really terrible story we just did. Huh.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I hope you get involved in this one, because you
know a little twenty two month old girl should not
die because her whacked out meth ed daddy shuck and
beat her to death. And that's what happened to this girl,
Lily Brown got killed by her dad, Herbert David Brown,
(12:20):
and another one claiming to be a woman, Ali, and
you got to use the new name Alie Hazel Brown.
I think you should write to Governor Newsom's office and
his correctional number is A Y two two two seven,
a Y twenty two twenty seven and protest that he's
(12:42):
being paroled. Newsom could reverse the parole.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
I mean he's.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Twelve years twelve years he got for brutalizing his little daughter,
fractured skull, hemorrhaging.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
He was lying about it.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
He claim named that all the bruises on her body
were from playing and the dog, their dog, pulled on
a leash and slammed her into a door.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Jam I guess the.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Dog was doing that repeatedly, over and over again, and
she kept hitting her head against the doorknob. That's just now,
that's a life sentence because he's psychotic. I don't care
if he's on meth or not. He's psychotic. He probably
has a lot of brain damage.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
How ugh.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
This Prop fifty seven that went on the ballot, it
was the sequel to forty seven. Fifty seven provided like
a freeway out of prison for many violent criminals. They
lied to us, Jerry Brown lied to us and said
it was not going to be used for violent felons.
And look at this ten years later. Now a baby
(13:51):
killer killed his daughter and he gets released after only
twelve years and they say, well, you know if he
behaves himself, and he wasn't. He was getting written up
as little as three years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
That's all. This is so sick.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
But you vote for this stuff because you believe them.
How come not one of these was stopped? How come
people never change their votes? Last hour, it was about
fifty five Democrats blocking a bill, gutting a bill that
(14:38):
would make buying teenage girls and boys for sex on
the street, would make it a felony.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
These Democrats blocked it.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Why do you vote for They're making it easy for
people to buy teenagers for sex, the Progressive Democrats and
Sacramento and here the pres Democrats created this Prop fifty seven,
lied to the public, and now they're letting out baby killers.
Baby is there anything worse than a guy who violently
(15:12):
destroys the brain of his own daughter.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
And he gets out. I don't think there's any.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Crime anymore that said sufficiently disgusts and angers and offends
people to finally say enough. I don't think there is.
If this one doesn't do it, I don't know what
to say. I mean, it's totally lawless now and he's
not that old. That's just nuts. I saw it anyway.
(15:46):
Ali Hazel Brown's his name, Go look up this case.
We're gonna stay in touch with Dan daw And again
he's trying to get Governor Newsom to reverse the border
parole hearing. There's a there's a new pullout and aggregate
of polls that said Newsom is only the fifth best
choice among Democratic voters to be the nominee for president.
(16:12):
He's got four people in front of him, including Kamala Harris.
You know, his presidential campaign is going to be very difficult.
And if he thinks he's going to run on parolling
a guy who destroyed the brain of his two month
old of his two year old daughter, I just cannot
(16:35):
believe the Newsom is actually going to run around the
country campaigning to run the United States after leaving behind
this disaster, including guys getting out early for killing their daughters.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I just.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
We come back. The leading candidate. I'll go through the poll,
tell you all the candidates that are listed, but the
leading candidate is still Kamala Harris, not only for president
on the Democratic side, but for governor.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
What are you doing in there?
Speaker 6 (17:10):
I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
I'm putting together my newscat. Okay, I'm looking very hard.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Oka's a little camera on her and I can see
her making gestures. So we come back. We've got Kamala
Harris material. She came out of hiding and gave a speech,
and she uncorked a doozy. I don't think it's right
(17:40):
up to Dorito's bag quality, but it's still a good one.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
That's next has a local spin, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (17:45):
It does.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
Yes, you're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Mars Moistline Friday.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
You want to be part of the Moistline eight seven
seven moist eighty six eight seven seven, Moistay eight six
for if you missed part of the show already. That's
what the podcast is for. John Coleblt show on demand
on the iHeart app. You want to hear the interview
I just had with the San Luis Obispo Da Dan
daw about this baby killer daughter killer being released unless
(18:17):
Newsome reverses the decision. His name is Ali Brown. That's
his female name. He's also known as Herbert Brown. That's
his male name. Go listen to it on the podcast
and see if you can make sense of it. All right,
let's see what have we got coming up? Yeah, Alex
Stone will be here at three o'clock. The real ID
goes into effect in a matter of days. If you
(18:38):
go to the airport if you don't have your real
ID driver's license. I don't know what happens. It could
be a hassle mandatory federal law. A lot of people ignored.
They've been trying to put this in place for twenty years.
Alex will talk about it coming up.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Kamala Harris crawled out of wherever she was hiding to
give a speech, and Kamala you had to pay if
you wanted to watch or do it in person. Was
in San Francisco. It was full of Democrats and if
you wanted to see it, streaming online. You had to
(19:14):
pay two twenty five bucks, but there's no reason to
do that because you knew the best parts of the
speech we're going to be played today on our show.
And she did not disappoint. This is Kamala Harris. I'm
sure she was. I mean, i'd watched. I didn't watch
the whole thing. I just saw a couple of clips.
(19:36):
But I'm sure she was just spewing the usual, you know,
cliches and platitudes and nonsense that comes out of her
empty head. And then she made a weird turn and
started talking about elephants.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Play cut two.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Who saw that video from a couple of weeks ago,
the one of the elephants at the San Diego Zoo
during the earthquake. Google it if you've not seen it.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
So that scene has been on my mind.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Everybody's asking me what you've been thinking about these days. Well,
so in the video for those.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Who haven't seen it, here those elephants were and as
soon as they felt the earth shaking beneath their feet,
they got in the circle and stood next to each other.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
To protect the most vulnerable.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Think about it.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
What a powerful metaphor, because we know those who try
to incite fear are most effective when they divide and conquer,
when they separate the herd, when they try to make
(21:00):
everyone think they are alone.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
The hell.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But in the face of crisis, the lesson.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Is don't don't scatter.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
That's the lesson. Don't scatter. Stand in a circle. Number
one choice among Democratic voters for president in twenty twenty eight,
number one choice for governor in twenty twenty eight among
Democratic voters among all voters here in California.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
How about that.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Here's another clip and this is when she started. I
guess she's criticizing Trump about his first hundred days.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Play cut three.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I am not here tonight to offer all the answers you.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
I'm here to say this, you don't have one.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
You are not alone, and we are all in this together.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Wow, and straight talk.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Things are probably going to get worse before.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
They get better, straight talk, but we are ready for it.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Ready for what.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
We are not going to scatter. We are going to
stand together. Everyone a leader.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Wait stop, stop, stop in a second.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
So, I guess we're all elephants, right, Yeah, you know
how elephants will will join together like I'll wrap my
trunk around your tail. Unless you want to wrap your
trunk around my tail. Well, you got to choose either
in front or you're in body.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
Get a scatter you.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You can't scatter choice. We're all in this together.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
Well I'm a scatterer.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Place more and emerge.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
You have a special role to play. Organizing is as
important as ever, Mobilizing is as important as ever. Running
for office is as important as ever. So please, everyone here,
please keep doing what you are doing.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And to everyone, what are they doing?
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Let's lock it.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
In, lock it in, cheer up for the hard work ahead.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Please what am I locking in?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Remember this I loves.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
The key is ours. It doesn't belong to whoever is in.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
The White House.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
It belongs to you.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
It belongs to us.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It belongs to we the people. A pro found you
want to hear the poll?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Okay, they looked at California. Globe looked at an aggregate
of polls, about a dozen of them in the last
two months, and found across the country, Kamala Harris is
the leading Democratic candidate for Democrats with twenty seven twenty
seven percent support twenty seven percent. Listen to this all
(24:31):
star lineup. Second Pete budajetg At sixteen percent. Alexandria Ocassio
Cortes in third place. She makes Kamala sound like a
genius third place thirteen percent. Corey Booker at eight percent.
(24:53):
Oh you know what, I never played. I never played
him singing on the Capitol steps. We'd saved that the
other day and I forgot about it, and then News
Simpson fifth. He's behind Kanalla Bodhage Edge, AOC and Corey Booker,
(25:14):
who's the new Jersey Senator. He's in fifth place. Meantime,
he's on the verge of releasing a baby killer. Guy
killed his daughter, and he hasn't done anything to stop
what the legislature is doing and allowing people to buy
(25:35):
teenagers for sex on the street.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
It's not stopping that either.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh my god, do you know most of the state
does not want him to run for president, but he
has no interest in being governor anymore. That's how he's doing,
like the stupid podcasts. Two podcasts, and he's failed and
(26:03):
he can't fix all the failures.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
It's too far gone.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
You really think he thinks he failed?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
He I think he knows he's got to do something
different for his public image, which is why he's doing
those podcasts with Republicans or conservatives, like he's trying to
find a new identity, a new formula to present himself.
You know, he's a shape shifter. He's a phony. I
don't think he has any real beliefs he cares about.
(26:30):
He just sells whatever he thinks he's gonna sell in
a given moment, and he knows he has got to
sell something else. He can't sell what he did in California.
I mean, it's such a disaster. But now he's in
fifth place. Also, he still has that that ban on
(26:52):
buying gas powered cars that hasn't changed. Virginia reversed its decision.
Virginia a few years ago had said we were gonna
copy California's electric car laws and we're going to ban
gas powered laws gas powered cars in twenty thirty five,
just like California, they were they were locked in in sync.
(27:14):
And the other day the governor repealed that law. So
other states are backing away from it. Oh who else?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Did I read? Maryland too?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
The Democratic governor of the air Wes Moore, he's also
backed away from an electric vehicle mandate.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
You're listening to John Cobels on Demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Did you see this new earthquake risk?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
Is this the northern California one?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Yeah, it could sink a large swath of California. It's
a monster earthquake that could happen. It would cause some
coastal areas to sink by more than six feet, so
you'd have massive flooding. It would reshape the whole coast
(28:03):
from well in the Eureka area in Arcata all the
way up to Washington, Oregon. In Washington, the flooding would
expand by one hundred and sixteen square miles. This is
from a study that was published on Monday in the
(28:23):
National Academy of Sciences journal called Proceedings.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And this.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Flooding area would be two and a half times the
size of San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
Six feet is huge, Yeah, that is.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
I mean it would just collapse because they always said
that the California is going to fall into the ocean,
and this is what they meant. Literally, it would go
underwater because I guess the quake would push up.
Speaker 7 (28:54):
I don't understand why we can't prevent something like this
from happening. I mean, I'm no scientists, clearly, literally, how
would you.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Suggest that I don't know.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
So powerful that would raise the ocean six feet or
lower the land six feet.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
Is anybody working on preventing earthquakes?
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I'd like to know they're still trying to figure out
a warning system. I know that works better than five seconds.
The next earthquake could be magnitude eight or higher.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
I want to be dead.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
You're taking any trips up to northern California.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
I have family there. I used to live in Northern California.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I know as soon as you go, this will happen.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
I know, so I'm not going to go. I am
not going.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
There's eight thousand people that live in a floodplain in
the Cascadia coastal region, but if you have this particular earthquake,
it would triple to more than twenty two thousand. It's
called the subsidence is the term for what would be happening.
(30:05):
This is this is just fantastic. I wouldn't say that
there's been more than eleven great earthquakes off the shore
over the last six to seven thousand years. It happens
every two to eight hundred years, and I guess we're
getting due.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
You know, that's the worst feeling is to just not
know something's going to happen, but you know it's going
to happen. That's how I feel about earthquakes. That's what
keeps me up at night. You know what's going to happen,
You just don't know what.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Do you know?
Speaker 3 (30:37):
You remember the one in Japan in twenty eleven. It
was I think that was the one.
Speaker 6 (30:42):
That there's been so many nuclear.
Speaker 7 (30:44):
Reactor Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
That was a nine point one and it caused some
of the land to sink by up to three feet.
This would cause the land to sink six feet. They
had two in Alaska in nineteen sixty four that caused
the land to sink six feet. In fact, that created
(31:08):
a tsunami. I think that's the only tsunami that really
affected California in the last one hundred years. I made
it to Marina del Rey if I remember correctly.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
What year was that, nineteen sixty four?
Speaker 6 (31:21):
Okay, it wasn't around.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
In nineteen sixty they'd had a nine point five in Chile,
eight feet of sinking. So there's one.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
Coming and you wonder why I'm nervous.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Well, it wouldn't affect southern California. That's what I'm saying,
is like, yeah, they're still up there.
Speaker 7 (31:41):
I'm not going to but we're still due for a
big one, so we'll have our own issue.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
We are.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
It's been it's been over thirty years now, it's been
thirty one years since the last big one, So they
tend to come every thirty years here in southern California.
Thanks John, minutes away. Not one of these little baby
quakes four eight.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Yeah, I'm okay with those if I know they're going
to stay that way.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
That again, it's the unknown guarantee guarantee. It happens while
you're in the.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
Shower though, Oh I'm sure. That's why I take very
quick showers every day, is it?
Speaker 4 (32:19):
What? Huh?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Absolutely? Yes, yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:21):
In fact, I think it was yesterday or today.
Speaker 7 (32:24):
I thought about it and I thought, oh God, let
me get out of here because I just had my
I just was envisioning calling in to Gary and Shannon saying, uh, yeah,
I'm in my towel.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Yes, it happened again. Role I'm in the shower. I
can't come in because God knows what.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
It's got to be fascinating to have a camera follow
you around all day.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
That's why I'm so sleep deprived.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Alex Stone coming up next, real ID, this is this
is real. It's coming this week. If you go on
a plane, you gotta show it.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Do you have it?
