Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Crime Weekly News. I'm Derek Lavascer. And I'm Stephanie
Harlow. And as of right now, whether you're listening or watching this, Stephanie and I are,
well, I'm on my way to Vegas. Stephanie will be leaving in the morning. And so we're excited about that.
We're hoping to see some of you there. But today we're talking about something that's not good news
and something that everyone should be concerned about because it's not just this specific area.
It's anywhere. It can happen anywhere in the country. And anybody who has children out there,
you definitely want to know this story.
So Thursday, May 14th, a person dressed in a pink panther costume was spotted in several
locations around the old Greenwich area of Fredericksburg, Virginia.
This person reportedly was following a group of children who had gotten off a school bus
and police are now asking for the public's help to find this potential child stalker.
And listen, I just gave you the short version.
I actually stumbled on this on Instagram.
Somebody else was talking about it.
I didn't hear about it.
anywhere else. And then I sent the link once I started searching it to Stephanie. Did you already
know about it, Stephanie? No. No. Okay, see, that's a problem. But when you sent it to me and I
looked into it, it reminded me of something else, which we're going to talk about. You said that.
And by the way, if you're if you're not watching on video right now, you need to go over there and
check it out because there's this eerie photo of this person. I'm assuming it's a guy. Yeah,
may not be, but they're standing there in this costume and there was like a passerby who was
smart enough to take a photo of it.
And the person in the pink panther costume is just like staring at him.
It looks like something straight out of a horror movie.
Yeah, there's a lot of photos.
And they're like local Facebook pages and stuff because they kept seeing them.
And there's video too.
There's video too.
So people should definitely check that out because you can see his gate, his walk.
These are all things that could help identify him.
So the reports say that the pink predator ominously trailed a group of terrified
youngsters fresh off the school bus in Fredericksburg. This was around 4.30 p.m. on May 14th.
And then this horrifying video shows him prowling along the grassy roadside near the Lafayette Boulevard
corridor. Yes. So this was happening. And then a local resident posted on Facebook, quote,
this man stared down my son in one of the older neighbors from across the road. That's when this
picture was snapped, end quote. Yeah. That's the weird photo. It's just like they didn't even care.
They just like sitting there staring. There might be something.
wrong with this person. Now, apparently, according to eyewitnesses, he went after these four children
who got off the bus, but he wasn't just following them. He like ran after them. They were terrified.
And then he tried to grab the smallest one, but her sister pulled her away. So this isn't
somebody who's just kind of dressed up like weird and trying to scare people. It looks like
allegedly and reportedly that they're trying to grab kids. So this was concerning. And we're not,
we're not really sure what's going on, but I guess the Pink Panther guy has been spotted multiple times,
and he even went into the store wearing the costume,
and then the store owner and several customers were like, hey, take your mask off,
and he just ignored them and then kind of eventually left.
But according to a clerk at one of the stores, she said based on like a hole or like a tear in his costume,
that she believes this was, this is a man.
But it's just weird because not only is a Pink Panther costume,
but he's kind of added stuff to it.
So he's added like cowboy boots and this like plaid shirt.
And it's just very, very odd.
So.
Well, I think, I mean, it could be part of the costume.
I don't know until we find this person.
The cowboy boots and also this thing tied around their neck,
which looks kind of like a bag.
It's like a yellow printed.
It almost looks like can.
Camel a little bit, it's not, but it looks camo. I do wonder if someone's going to see this and
recognize the boots or this bag as something they've seen someone else wearing at a particular
time. And they might say, oh, you know what? I don't know where the Pink Panther costume came from,
but I recognize those cowboy boots or I recognize that bag because this might be something that
contains items. This person is known to carry. There's only one other thing before you
continue, Stephanie, that I want to point out. We're recording this on May 22nd. So you guys aren't
going to be seeing or hearing this till next Wednesday. So just in case, because it's my guess,
this person will be in custody long before this episode drops. Just keep that in mind. We're
putting it out in the hopes that he is caught beforehand. But if you're watching this going,
he's already been caught. We already know who he is. That is why. We're recording this on May 22nd,
because we'll be gone next week for CrimeCon. I don't know. Okay. So that's good. I don't
I think he gets caught.
Yeah, I mean, that would be ideal, right?
Because it's a very stressful situation.
People are very, in Fredericksburg, people are very, like, stressed out about this.
They don't like it at all, which I don't blame them.
As you said, the way that they're taking pictures of him and he's just standing there across the street looking at them, like not trying to hide, not afraid.
And is this the fact that it's the boldness that you get when your face is covered, when you know that no one can recognize you.
but one of the women who was talking about this said, listen, like, I don't find this cute.
I don't find this funny.
If somebody's going to do something like this dressed in this ridiculous Pink Panther costume,
what are they doing when their mask is off?
Like, this is not a normal person.
This is not a person that has, you know, good intentions.
This isn't someone who's trying to bring joy to children.
This is someone who's trying to use this outfit is either a way to, like, lure children in
or to not be spotted when he's taking them.
And that's a concern.
Yeah, for me, and this is speculation,
but there's one particular video where this person is just driving down like the center barrier.
It's grass, but it's like between the roads.
And this person, it looks like it's hot out, is just walking down the road,
not really paying attention to anyone.
There's car stopping.
There's people taking photos.
And they're just walking.
Now, my guess, just from just watching the couple of,
things we have, this person wasn't really being secretive about what they were doing. They were
walking around in broad daylight. Yeah, I'm going to, knew they were being filmed. They knew they were
being filmed. Didn't care. I'm going to speculate that when we find this person, it's more than likely
going to be someone who either has some underlying mental health issues or is someone who is
homeless right now and is just doing something because they don't care. I don't know. But that's
my first thought where I'm thinking this is going to be someone who is known to.
to the community who may have been seen without this costume on.
And this is going to be someone that people are going to come forward and go,
oh, that's, that's Joe.
We always see Joe walk around with those cowboy boots and that backpack on.
So that's what I'm hoping, because we need to figure out what their intention was.
Well, the Frederick Sork Police Department says they take these incidents very seriously.
They've increased paroles in the Lafayette Boulevard corridor.
And they said residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities
to authorities immediately.
the investigation remains ongoing, and the Fredericksburg Police Department is seeking the public's assistance.
Anyone who has seen or interacted with the suspect, the Pink Panther, is urged to contact the police department at 540-373-3122.
You can also make an anonymous tip, and you can send a text to 847-4-1-1, and text FPD Tip, followed by your tip, or you can download the free FPD Tip app available for any.
Android and iPhone. So there's a lot of options to make a tip. Now, I would assume when they say
the suspect, they don't simply mean this person wearing a Pink Panther costume. They mean, hey,
if there's anybody you know who, like Derek said, has those boots or you know has Donned a Pink
Panther costume before, has that walk, has that bag, has talked to you or you've heard someone
talking about like, oh, I've been harassing kids wearing a Pink Panther costume, anything that might be
related, even if it's somebody you know or know of that you think could be the Pink Panther.
You know, it's not like you're just accusing someone randomly.
This isn't a weird witch trial.
But if you see something, say something.
We have to identify the person.
And once, like I said, once we figure out who this person is, then you could do a background
on them, see what their criminal history at all is.
Do they have stuff in their background that suggests that they've done something like this
before?
These are all things that need to be done.
You can't take it for granted because clearly you could have an.
innocent child who sees this person in a costume. And to you and I, it looks creepy, but to them,
it might be like, oh my God, that's so cool. And if nobody's around, if there's no adult supervision,
and this person's small, whoever this guy is in the costume, they could take advantage of that.
So we need to identify them immediately. And what I'm going to do with these costumes, right,
where I saw firsthand, I just went on vacation with my kids and there was like these characters
and costumes walking around this place. And kids love it. Okay. They love it. It's like they just
immediately feel safe going up to an adult dressed in like a fluffy costume because it's,
it's just something that I think as parents, we've almost trained our kids to do. Like, we're at the
mall and, you know, the cookie monster is there. And it's like, oh, it's cookie monster. Go say hi
to the cookie monster. Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, you know, things like that. That's how they're
growing up to think that that's a safe thing. Whereas adults, given the context, we're like,
this is not a safe thing. This is weird. I don't care what this person's intention is. What you're
doing is weird.
Yeah, we have to. And you need to stop.
And you definitely need to stop. And we're going to put it out on our social media.
If you're following us on Instagram, you'll see it. It's going to be, we want people to be aware of this because more people should know about it.
So again, it'll be out on our social media now as of this day.
But if you see this video, I'm hoping if there's an update, I'll put it in the caption that this person has been identified.
But you said there was another case that you felt was similar to this.
I'm not aware of it. You just kind of alluded to it.
I want to talk about that. But let's take a break. We'll be right back.
You know what I've realized about skincare? A lot of it is basically like vibes, aesthetic.
What does that even mean?
You know, pretty packaging, trendy ingredients, promises nobody can actually explain.
And at a certain point, when you keep trying things and buying things and seeing stuff that's like trendy,
you have to ask yourself, is this stuff even doing anything?
Yeah, let's be honest.
No shade anybody.
But some of these products out there, they're made by influencers or famous people.
And, you know, there's a lot of marketing put behind it.
but you have to wonder about the research.
But when it comes to OneSkin, it was developed by researchers.
And OneSkins actually rooted in science.
It was founded by Ph.D.
Longevity scientists.
And instead of just focusing on covering up wrinkles,
they looked at what actually drives skin aging underneath the surface.
And this led to their OS1 peptide.
The OS1 peptide targets something called Sensient cells.
They sometimes are called zombie cells.
And basically, these sentient cells contribute to visible aging.
Yeah, exactly. It's designed to strengthen the skin barrier and support collagen at the cellular level instead of just temporarily smoothing things over.
And honestly, yes, I think that this stuff works. Not only does it simplify my routine, but their products layer really easily.
They're gentle and sensitive skin, which I have. I really, really, really love their eye cream.
I talk about it all the time. I use it all the time. In fact, I'm mad because I didn't get my auto ship this month because my credit card.
I want to say it got stolen, but it didn't get stolen.
I lost it.
Okay.
Well, you're honest.
But then I have to switch the number out in all of my like subscriptions and I never do that.
Not good.
You missed it.
So now I don't have it when I really want it.
And I really, I do really want it.
I don't like that I don't have much left.
Well, listen, for the people out there who are thinking about it, I talked about researchers earlier.
There's a lot of research behind one skin as well.
Yes.
They are peer reviewed clinical studies.
Over 10,000 five-star reviews and recognition from place.
is like Bloomberg as a leader in skin longevity.
It feels very much grounded in real science than most of your skin care brands.
So OneSkin's OS1 peptide has been born from over a decade of longevity research.
It's proven to target the visible signs of aging, helping you unlock your healthiest skin now and as you age.

All right.
So when you brought this to my attention, I was like, this reminds me of something that happened in 2016.
And the reason that I know something about it is because I do Halloween every year in my channel.
And so I'm always looking out for like creepy things that don't make sense to be a good Halloween case.
and I found out that there was this thing, this like a rash of clown sightings in 2016.
So it looks like it began on August 1st, 2016 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Five pictures of a creepy clown in a vacant parking lot under a bridge in downtown Green Bay
started coming in around 2 a.m. local time.
And then they created a Facebook group shortly after this, claiming that the clown was named
Gags.
And then in the days that followed, pictures were discussed on numerous news outlets.
So this kind of went viral the same way this Pink Panther thing is going.
They were wondering like, oh, you know, was this because of an unreleased film and it was promotion?
But then after the Wisconsin incident, numerous other incidents started popping up across the U.S.
And at the end of 2016, according to the New York Times, reports began asserts of clown sightings in Greenville County, South Carolina in late August.
and it was rumored in Greenville that clowns were attempting to lure children into the woods with money
where these clowns were like loitering around parks, schools, things like that.
There was a clown sighting in Winston, Salem, North Carolina,
where this clown was offering treats to children.
And then when the police arrived, the clown fled.
And then in early October of 2016, there were other incidents reported in Canada.
And then there were incidents that were occurring after this in the United Kingdom in Australia.
And this kind of went like, it seems to start in the United States, but then kind of went over to Canada and then into the UK and then into Australia.
And it was stressing people out.
So according to the New York Times, the clown sightings resulted in at least 12 arrests across the United States.
And in Reading, Pennsylvania, a 16-year-old boy was fatally stabbed during an incident that could have been provoked by a prowler wearing a clown mask.
And the charges obviously related to the sightings included making.
false reports, threats, chasing people.
So as this is kind of going on,
you're hearing more and more people on social media
saying, oh, I'm seeing a clown here.
Now, you don't know which ones are real
or which ones are people kind of just taking advantage
of the initial clown sightings.
Yeah.
Or just people doing it for social media cloud.
Like, hey, Mark, my friend, dress up in a clown costume
and I'm going to take a picture of you acting creepy in the woods
and I'm going to post on social media.
Yep, and see people's reactions.
Yeah.
Stephanie, that's a dangerous game to play these days.
Right?
That's a daint.
I wouldn't, we're talking about a lot tonight.
I wouldn't recommend anybody and someone who has a teenager.
Don't be out there messing with people for TikTok videos because we've seen
situations where you choose the wrong person and they end up defending themselves and
someone can end up dead.
So not a game you want to play.
Have you ever seen those videos where people dress up like they look like creepy and
then they're like rushing into elevators where people are and like scaring them?
I've seen a lot of that stuff.
And it's not, it's going to, there's going to be a tragedy for sure.
Yes.
I'm surprised there hasn't been already.
There has been one.
I don't know the name of it.
It was a TikTok video.
A guy was doing it.
And someone was shot.
Someone was shot because they were messing around with this guy.
And yeah, it was not good.
Yeah.
So, I mean, what it ends up looking like, because we're obviously, you know, a good 10 years past 2016.
It ends up looking like that original Green Bay, Wisconsin siting was like a marketing stunt for.
or an indie horror film called gags.
Okay, so not anything nefarious on its own there.
And then a lot of the other clowns were pranksters,
social media people, local teenagers,
aspiring TikTok content people.
But then there was a small, dangerous minority
that consisted of actual criminals
who were using the anonymous nature
of this clown mask and clown costume to commit crimes,
to chase people with weapons
or make anonymous threats against,
schools and children. So once again, it kind of boils down to, yes, the whole point of this
costume is it could be, oh, it's just maybe it's a Pink Panther marketing thing. No, I don't think so.
This definitely isn't for sure. The costume isn't even that nice. It looks like tattered and beat up.
It looks pretty bad. Looks like something you just kind of found in a garbage maybe, right?
That's why I'm leaning, by the way. It's not like I'm trying to target a specific group.
That's why I'm leaning towards someone who may be homeless, who may have found this and threw it on,
thought it was funny.
Maybe they were scaring the children.
We need to find out what they were doing and where they got it from.
That's where it comes down to the small percentage of these clown people were actual criminals
or unstable individuals that were using being covered up by the costume to pretty much be like,
hey, I'm not Clark Kent anymore.
I'm Superman.
I can do whatever the hell it went.
And so that's what we have to be concerned about.
And because I don't think this Pink Panther thing falls in the other two categories of a
marketing thing or a copycat because there's no pink.
Panther copycatting thing to do here, it seems to be something that we really need to take seriously and get to the bottom of.
Yeah, especially with the allegations that they were trying to grab kids. I mean, yeah. Overall, it's not a good situation and it's not something that anybody should take lightly.
But there is a possibility that when they find this person, again, without seeing the reports of what actually occurred, from what we're hearing, they tried to grab a kid.
And so I'm going to take them at their word. That's a problem. That could be a charge right there.
But we need to identify this person, like I said before, figure out who they are, their past any issues they've had, where they're from, all these different things.
Let them tell their side of the story.
But it's concerning on the surface because I think about this person being somewhere that's more secluded, maybe not on a main road.
And if nobody's watching and they run into a child, what's going to happen then?
Well, if you do it in broad daylight, when you know people are driving by and people are watching and people are taking, you know, videos, then what's completely?
disregard for what anybody thinks. Exactly. And that's the concern. Like if nobody else is around or in
that instance that you brought up there where you have those multiple children there where they were
able to help the smallest one, what if it's only a solo child? What if they're by themselves?
So it is definitely concerning. And I think I do have a hot take about costumes and masks in general.
I want to take the break and then we could talk about it because I have a feeling you may not agree
with me and I have a feeling that maybe. I probably will.
If you have a hot take about masks and costumes, I'm probably going to agree with you because I do too.
Maybe you guys out there won't agree with me, but I want to talk about it because this is a perfect segue to discuss it because I've always felt this way.
But let's take our last break and we'll be right back.
Okay, we're back from break and again, I might get some heat for this one.
I'm fine with it.
And there may even be some constitutional issues with it.
I'm just speaking out loud with you guys.
There's a circle of trust and we're talking.
You know, COVID happened and obviously we had to take.
some precautions there because of, you know, there was the report that it was airborne and all.
That's a whole different conversation, right? Because a lot of the masks people were using were not
protecting them anyways. But there's something to be said about people covering up their face in
public situations. Now, let me just put it out there. If you have a medical condition or something
of that and you need. And you're immune compromised. And you need to wear a mask. I'm all for it.
Maybe there's something that can be given by a doctor where you can carry a card to let them know,
like you need to do this for your health.
But there was a lot of people, Derek,
who weren't just wearing a mask during that time.
They were wearing a mask, like that covered their full face.
They had their hoods up.
These were the people that were taking advantage of the COVID situation.
Right.
To mask their faces and then do whatever they wanted.
This is a different thing.
And this has been going on even before COVID, right?
Because even now, you'll have people who are wearing masks or even around Halloween,
not just Halloween, but like the month of October and into November,
where people are wearing, they're covering their faces.
And I can just speak about myself.
Those situations have always concerned me because I'm going to ask the natural question,
why are they covering their face?
It's, you know, 70, 80, 90 degrees outside.
And they're even, even they're just wearing a small mask,
not a full costume, which is an obvious red flag.
I have always gotten concerned in those environments because it makes me wonder what their
intention is.
Are their immune systems compromised?
Are they trying to do something that they don't want?
want their identity to be revealed.
And as a former cop, I always go to worst case scenario.
Like, are they about to pull out a gun on us?
You know, I don't know.
And what, what's your first thoughts on that before we keep going?
I mean, for me, it's not even about like medical masks.
Like, if it's not Halloween, there is absolutely no reason for you to be out in public wearing
a costume or a mask of any kind.
Get the hell out of here.
What are you doing?
If it is not Halloween, you need to go back home and put on normal people clothes because
I am not comfortable with this because if I see anybody wearing like a mask or a costume and it's
like August or March and you're walking about in the public, I immediately think you're up to no
good.
Right.
And, you know, there's going to be marketing stunts and things like that.
That's cool because here's the thing.
If it's in a dedicated place where you're aware that's happening.
Yeah, for standing outside a pizza place and you're at a Comic-Con, if I'm at a Comic-Con
and I'm walking around the city where Comic-Con is happening, yeah, I'm going to expect to see
that, right? I'm going to expect to see people dressed up like Zelda or Link, you know,
that's whatever. I may be dressed up as Iron Man. Yeah, exactly. That's fine. That's fun.
But if it's just a right, there's nothing, there's no event happening. There's not like a dedicated
thing that I'm aware is happening. I'm suspicious. I'm unsettled. Definitely wearing. I don't want to
be around you. I got a ton of masks at my house. I posted on Instagram a couple times. I love the masks.
I have all the Marvel and DC masks. But you're not walking to the store and buying milk in it.
And I'm interested to hear the general take on this from you guys.
I just think if you're out in public and you don't have a medical condition or it's not a marketing thing where you have a permit for it and you're not in a public area where everyone can see you.
I think there should be, you know, it's not going to be a law that gets passed, but like a city ordinance where you're not allowed to wear a mask unless you have some type of medical documentation supporting why you would need to wear that mask.
I think it makes people uncomfortable.
and yeah, there is a constitutional side to it where on the surface you can wear whatever you want.
But I'll also say you can't walk into a public place naked.
That's a crime.
You can't technically wear whatever you want.
Exactly. So there are restrictions and maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe everyone's going to come at us and say Stephanie and Derek you're wrong.
But I think most people ask yourself truly when someone walks in and they look relatively healthy and they're wearing a mask and they're in a t-shirt, right?
are you concerned or is it something where you're like,
eh, I'm just kind of used to it now after, you know, post-COVID doesn't really bother me.
See, for that, it really, it doesn't bother me if it doesn't feel like they're trying to conceal more.
Like, if you don't have, like, a one of those masks where it's like hiding everything but your eyes and you have your hood pulled up, like, and I saw plenty of that during COVID.
And that made me.
And there were reports of many people using that anonymous nature to commit crimes.
So I don't think you're trying to protect your health at that point.
I think you're trying to hide your identity.
Yeah.
But yeah, just a normal like, what do you call N95 masks.
Yeah, the little paper mask.
The little paper mask.
Yeah.
You don't have a hood up.
I can see your eyes, you know, like now.
That is true.
That is a good point.
Like totality, right?
Like, and also I feel like I have to qualify everything.
If I see a 70, 80 year old little woman coming in with their mask on, I'm not like,
oh, she's probably going to be the next shooter.
You know, like I use common sense too, right?
But you're right.
If you see bigger guy come in there, he's got a mask on, he's got a hood up, and it's 85 degrees outside and he's got a backpack on, the mask really, really concerns me.
Where without the mask, the backpack wouldn't be as concerning.
But when you're covering up your identity, I do ask myself naturally, why doesn't this person want me to see their face?
Could be completely innocent.
I think a backpack is concerning to me all the time now, too.
What is up with that?
Like, I'm nervous about that.
Yeah, I mean, I wear a back.
You know I wear a backpack.
I have a backpack everywhere I go.
If you see me at Crime County, I got a backpack on or a backpack with me.
Yeah, but if you're traveling or whatever, but if you're just like walking into a store, you know, like, why do you have a backpack on?
No, it's definitely totality, but to bring it back to these, to more, the more extreme what we're talking about tonight, this Pink Panther thing, guys walking around, grown adults walking around in costumes.
This seems like it could be something more nefarious, but we have seen the TikToks and the Instagram reels where people are addressing us.
up in costumes and scaring people.
It's something that needs to be regulated because it gives those people who have ill
intentions opportunities to disguise themselves.
And that's concerning.
Yeah, you might be just trying to have fun, but some people ruin the fun for all of us.
And someone could see it not as fun and you could end up getting hurt.
Can you give them the call to action one more time on the Pink Panther thing where they can go?
We'll end it with that where if you guys see this person, by all means, call in.
or if you think you know who the person is, please call in.
It's better to identify them sooner than later.

Okay, and to end this episode on a positive note, we have one more birthday shout-out, Patreon.
Shout out Alyssa Glaven.
May 30th.
May 30th.
I think I can say that.
I won't say your year.
Stephanie, give him the horoscope real quick.
Well, I mean, listen, this is,
Alyssa is a Gemini.
So I love, I love me a Gemini.
Some of my longest relationships and my best relationships are with Gemini.
My sister, Samantha, her birthday is May 24th.
She's a Gemini.
My mother's a Gemini.
And, you know, they get bad, they get bad reps, okay?
They get the whole like, oh, two personalities.
like duality thing, which yeah, that's true. But listen, Aquarius and Gemini's get along very,
very well. They do have a tendency, I think more so June Gemini's to kind of have that duality.
But most of my Gemini's are made Gemini's like Alyssa. And I just think they're very
creative. They can get very focused on things. They have a great like personal drive. Yes,
they can be a little flighty sometimes, but so can I. Okay, so can I. And I'm, I'm totally okay
with that. I love my air signs. Gemini's are great. You might think Aquarius is a water sign because
they're the water bearer, but Aquarius is an air sign. So I love my air signs. And so happy
birthday, Alyssa. We appreciate you. We appreciate you being a part of Patreon. And love me some Gemini.
Happy birthday, Alyssa. Yeah, and Patreon is, we're building it right now. It's been popping in there
in the discussion boards. We got multiple chats going on. We release our episodes early and ad-free.
So if you're someone who doesn't like the ads, both audio and video, you'll get them ad-free.
If it's not something you want to deal with, you don't have to anymore.
We also have Crime Weekly Plus on Apple Podcast, where if you want to go on there and get the episodes ad-free, you can do that as well.
Plus, probably the biggest plus about Patreon and Crime Weekly Plus.
It's not the discussion.
It's not the cameos or birthday shout-outs.
It's the bonus episodes.
We've already done two.
They've been really fascinating cases.
and you can get access to them either through Patreon or Crime Weekly Plus.
And here's the best part.
If you're a Spotify user, but you have the Patreon account, it integrates right with it.
So you can go on your Spotify and it automatically links your Patreon account so you don't even have to go on Patreon if you want the free episodes.
It's really cool.
If you want to check it out, head over on Patreon.
I think you're going to love it.
You can even do a free trial to check it out without any cost at first.
You get a lot of value out of it.
So we'd love to have you in the discussion chats.
That's going to do it for us.
We'll be back later this week with Kerry Farver part three.
Going to be a good one.
I think this is, is there's the last part?
We got one more after this.
One more part after this.
We got part three.
The case is crazy right now.
The twist and turns are insane.
Remember at the end of part two, you were like, this is where it should be ending, but it's just beginning.
Here we are.
You're telling me there's a part four.
So now my head's already thinking like, okay, what else could happen where we need a part four?
But here we are.
We appreciate the love and support, guys.
We'll see you later this week.
Be safe out there.
Talk to you soon.
