Louisiana Pastor Tony Spell goes to jail after feud with young neighbor

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2062562/fan_mail/new] Louisiana Pastor Tony Spell doesn’t hold back.  He first made national news in 2020 when he continued to hold massive in-person services at Life Tabernacle Church in Central, a city north of Baton Rouge, despite health restrictions.  Now he’s back in the headlines after a video went viral of him sprinting across four lanes of highway to confront his neighbor’s son after the young man allegedly hurled insults and threats against Spell’s family.  Police say it’s part of an on-going feud between Spell and his neighbors.  The pastor was arrested for second-degree battery, and he wasn’t out of jail anytime before his neighbors called the police on Spell again when he started doing yard work at his church at 4:00 in the morning, disturbing their peace they said.  But people love Spell’s won’t-back-down spirit and for many the incident has only boosted their support of him!

Hot to trot and double shot – Police officer Amber Guyger shoots to kill Botham Jean

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2062562/fan_mail/new] Thank goodness most of us feel safe in our own homes. Botham Jean thought he was safe when he was sitting on the couch in his apartment enjoying a bowl of vanilla ice cream. Afterall, he lived only a couple of blocks from the Dallas Police Department Headquarters.  However on September 6, 2018, that turned out to be a downside when his downstairs neighbor, police woman Amber Guyger, was so busy sexting her married mentor that she mistakenly walked into Jean's apartment believing it was her own. When she saw the 26-year-old accountant in the living room, she pulled her service weapon and shot him twice, like he was the intruder. Guyger never once rendered first aid and when she called 9-1-1 she repeated 19 times that she thought it was her apartment. Although she claimed to be so weary after a 13.5 hour shift that she didn't notice she parked on the wrong floor of the garage and walked past 16 apartments, she found the time to delete the steamy text messages she was exchanging with her lover shortly before the shooting.  Join us for more on the case that nearly tore a family and a city apart in the latest episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential Podcast, "Hot to trot and double shot – Police officer Amber Guyger shoots to kill Botham Jean."

Scott Pattison, Van Damme look-a-like, murders wife with weight bar

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2062562/fan_mail/new] Have you ever seen a grown man cry, whoop, and hyperventilate for a solid seven minutes? That’s what Miami real estate broker George Pino did while his own attorney was giving opening statements during his manslaughter trial which just got started this month. He’s accused of killing one of his daughter’s friends and leaving another severely injured after crashing his boat into a steel channel marker when a took the group of teens out to celebrate her 18th birthday.  There was one cooler filled with alcohol for the girls and another for George and his wife. The family had celebrated with friends earlier in the day at a sandbar and were headed home when George crashed straight into the channel marker and capsized the boat. The boat crasher is one of the cases we’re talking about in this week’s episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential Podcast.  We’re also talking about toll booth crasher Deanna Harrell, who was allegedly plowed when she plowed her pickup truck into a prefabricated aluminum toll booth operating a pickup truck in Daytona Beach Shores, Florida, and killed a longtime toll booth attendant.  And just for a little dash of “what the feezy” we’re checking in on the case of accused California killer Nick Reiner who now wants to tap into money from the trust fund that his parents set aside for him and use it to pay for his defense for killing them.  But the main course of this week’s episode is the chilling case of Scott and Lisa Pattison.  It looked like a tragic home gym accident ….until the killer forgot about his cameras. When Lisa’s husband Scott frantically called 911 in July 2009, he claimed he found Lisa pinned by a heavy barbell across her throat at their home gym in Indiana.  He put her in his truck, racing toward the hospital, crying accident. But investigators quickly realized the math wasn't mathing.  Was it a devastating weightlifting mishap, or a coldly calculated plot driven by a secret tawdry affair?  Join us for the latest episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential podcast “Scott Pattison, Van Damme look-a-like, murders wife with weight bar.” Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2062562/support]
