Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time. Time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Berry Show is on the air, thaning vert, you
(00:26):
must be popular. I just announced seven minutes ago that
we have free Burt mugs, t shirts and the whole
merchandise line, and they are flying. I don't think anything
is sold this fast. And by the way, for those
of you who go to Michael Berryshow dot com our
website and it says merchandise or I forget what the
(00:49):
term we use there, the photo that we use there
is from his actual mugshot. See it, and Landon did
all that. It's would say Michael Berry's store when you
go to Michael Berry's Show, and the funds here will
be used. Let's see if it'll take me right there?
(01:11):
Oh yeah, yea. As soon as you go the homepage,
you scroll down a little bit, all right, Bert, So
for those of you who just tuned in, our friend
Bert Harvey, who everybody remembers from the RCC, Everybody's friend,
everybody loves Burt. He gets pulled over for doing a
burnout with a sixteen year old son in the truck
with him. His wife and his other son are behind him.
(01:33):
They're over at a meetup for people that like these
hot rod trucks and things. And he does a little
basically peeling out was what we would have called it
when I was growing up. And a cop here's it,
doesn't see it, pulls up behind him and starts throwing
charges at him. Well, he first goes and looks up
(01:53):
his record, and Bert's full name is Robert Harvey. He
gets the wrong Robert Harvey, a guy in in Ohio
that's got a long record of very bad stuff, and
he assumes this is that Burt. When they take him
in for processing, they go, no, that's not him. The
officer goes and checks, says, I made a mistake. You're right,
it's not him, but I'm pushing this thing anyway. So
(02:16):
Bert is now at the jail. Curly is contacting me
during the break Bert, this is all happening in real time.
He wants to know if you got to keep the
crocs that they gave you when they took your Hey
dudes from you.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
No, but you know, when I was processing out, I'd
ask one of the deputies. I said, hey, man, is
there any way I can keep this shirt, like just
slip my other shirt on over it? And he said, yeah,
if you want to stay for another couple of days,
I'll just turn you around and put.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
You back on the elevator. No, probably not going to
do that.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But I did try to keep one of the shirts,
so you know, if there's any way I could get
one of those, I'd sure like to have it.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You know what, I'm going to find somebody that works
at the jail or whatever else. We're not going to
steal it, but that will maybe Sheriff Gonzales will let
me buy one. I think it would be appropriate. We're
gonna get your shirt and the graphic that we're selling
the free birt merch with. We can find some way
to get that printed onto one of those, because that
(03:15):
would be a hoot. People would love that. We may
have to do a meet up this evening for all
the Bert Harvey fans to buy you a beer, although
we got to be careful. We can't let you drive
home from there, because that wouldn't be real funny. If
we're over here trashing Jamison for a mistake in identity,
and you're such a good guy, and well you can
see where that would go. It is worth noting you
(03:35):
and I were talking about this, the guy of how
many really nice people there were in the process who
did nothing wrong. Only Jamison did. Like the guy who
gave you the socks, the new pair of socks, because
you weren't wearing socks with your hey dudes.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Right on.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, So they take your shoes in. He said, man,
you don't have socks, I know. And he let me
look around for a minute, and he went and dug
through a bunch of stuff in the back and he
came out and he goes, here, you don't want to
be walking around here barefoot to take these socks.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Every officer or deputy and every jail employee I dealt with.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
They were all fair. They were all as nice as
they could be in the circumstances. Some of them had
to be stirring because you're in a group of guys
and some of them are acting up. But I didn't
experience one thing in.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
There that I thought was out of line. And everybody I.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Personally interacted with gave me back to same energy I
gave them, and was respectful and kind. I have no
complaints anywhere through the system.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
And you had people who were at intake in various
levels saying there's no reason you should be here. These
are guys who deal with this all day every day,
and they were saying to you, I don't know what's
going on. You didn't. So when Sarah told me you'd
been arrested in what the charge was, my thought was
(04:56):
you had mouthed off to the cop. But to be
very clear, he he never said any of that. Obviously
you know you didn't, but he's never said that anywhere.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
No, I was as compliant and nice as I could be,
and that that is something that does make me sad
because you know, Sean, he's never been interacted with police
other than us in public or RCC being supportive. So
he was scared and I said, Sean, it's okay. Just
roll your window down, keep your hands visible, and use
your manners.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Well, you know, now my son's first interaction with the
police is this, and you know, I'm talking to him
over the weekend and he's got a real sour taste
and is for police right now. And what they did,
I'm just gonna have to overcome with them. Yeah, because
of what they did to me. You know, I kept
telling the whole time, Hey, this is gonna be okay.
We're gonna get a ticket.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
This is no big deal.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
We're fine, may be just a warning, who knows, but
it turned into all this and he's he's really upset
about it.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
So then you get caught up in your Forest Gump
experience here, as luck would have it or not, with
the fact that all those immigration arrests are going on,
and that gets you stuck for way longer than it
would have been. Tell that story it is.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Well, so we go see a pre trial person and
I'm not sure exactly what their title is, but he
was a really nice guy. And he decides if you're
going to get a pr bond or if you're going
to go to court, all of that, and he reads
my charges and he looks at me and says, what
are you here for?
Speaker 3 (06:36):
And I said that that's it.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
He goes, well, you did a burnout. I said yes, sir,
and he goes, this doesn't make any sense. I don't
understand why you're here. And I told him I think
it's this Ohio thing and he goes, yeah, but that's
not you. And I said, I understand that, but it's
still it's there. And he goes, man, I don't know
why you're here, and he asked me, you know, do
I have a job, and could I afford an attorney?
And I told him absolutely I can, and he said, well,
(07:01):
I fully expect you're going to get this taken care of.
And he's I'm going to give you a PR bond
and you're on your way. Well a few I'll tell
you one quick thing. During this time, once that information
was available, Sarah was able to look it up online.
And it's the middle of the night, I don't know,
two or three in the morning or something. She looks
this up Michael and gets the whole report and all
(07:25):
of this Ohio stuff is on there. Now when she's
looking at it, it's got my full identity, my picture,
my current charges, and then all of this Ohio stuff,
all these terrible this long record of this guy. And
she's freaking out, going, oh my god, is this something
my husband did before I knew him?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
How do I not know this? And she has to
believe it because it's in the computer.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
So she calls my friend Forrest and just crying, I
don't know, and Forrest no, when eventually this was going
to be funny, pauses and says, yeah, yeah, I had
to go get him from all that, but we weren't
weren't going to talk about it, and uh, Sarah loses
it and then he tells her, no, no, no, that's
(08:08):
it's got to be a mistaken identity.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
No, you know, no, Burt his whole life, it's not true.
She wasn't she wasn't in on how funny that joke was.
But for us, guys, that's that's what your that's what
your buddy does. Hold on Burt Harvey's I guess he's
been freed from jail.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Segment exclusively produced by Halwaiian Chad mcnishi Aloha bro Ha
a Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
After an officer who didn't see but heard him peel
out in a parking lot with his sixteen year old
son there, the officer takes his license plate, runs the
name and Bert Harvey's full name is Robert Harvey, and
he ends up with a Robert Harvey in Ohio. That's
a totally different Robert Harvey. He didn't do his job,
(08:54):
which was to verify that this is the same guy
with the same birthdate, So he brings him down for process,
and when he's told by the next officer that hey,
this isn't that Bert Harvey. There's no there's no FBI case.
This guy didn't have domestic violence and DUI and assault.
This isn't that guy. This guy you're just so you
(09:15):
figure the dad and going to take the case, right. Oh,
they're taking the case all right. And this officer is
all over it, this Deputy Jamison, because now he's embarrassed.
He's embarrassed. He screwed up. And just like I tell
my kids, there's nothing wrong with screwing up. It's the
cover up that gets you in trouble. So now his
egos on the line and he's so Bert's in jail
(09:38):
for thirty hours before they can get him out. But
you did say that the jail was kind of nicer
than you expected, right.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
It is nicer.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I mean the restroom situation is, uh, there's there's it's
like Buckie's. There's doors all along the wall. You go
in there and there's your toilet and the sinks. Now
it's not as nice as BUCkies, but everything's in individual rooms.
There's TVs up everywhere, there's carpet on the floor, chairs
to sit in, phones everywhere.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's not that why didn't you use in what way
is it similar? To BUCkies.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Because there are individual stalls with doors. You know, sometimes
you go into a public restroom sitting there.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And every place just f to a bathroom that had
individual stalls or doors at Buckis, so that if somebody
has that, they all over the floor. He was just like, BUCkies,
how much you the beaver nuggets? How different aren't they?
They are the life beef sandwich.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So so after pre trial, the guy doesn't tell me
that the charges don't make sense, You're gonna get a
PR bond. And a little while after that, after the
Forest in Ohio Sara story, they moved me in a
group of a smaller group of people to a smaller
room with probably you know, I don't know twenty or
thirty people in it. And uh, this is a pre
release room. And when you're in there, everybody around you
(11:05):
has an opinion about uh. Uh they're all they're all
jail house lawyers, and they all kind of tell you
what's next and how long things should take, and uh,
they're all determined or telling everybody that I should expect
to be there be out on the street within about
four maybe five hours from right then an hour or
two here, and an hour two the next spot, getting
your property back and then you're out. Well, we sit
(11:27):
there for four and a half hours with nothing, and
the guards well, I don't know, maybe eleven o'clock at night, midnight,
something like that one somewhere, and we sit there for
four or five hours with nothing, and the guards aren't
giving us any information, and of course the the guys
that are loud are asking constantly and that they're nothing. Well,
(11:50):
they do a shift change and the new guard comes
and he took the time to say, listen, the jail's
on lockdown right now because Ice is here picking up
illegals and buses to deport them, and they're having trouble
locating at least one, maybe some, and so they're not
(12:13):
going to allow any movement until they've gone through and
located all these people and transporferred them downstairs, and you know,
put them on the buses and they're gone.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Nobody's going anywhere.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
And he said, I don't know how long it's gonna be,
but it doesn't look like you know, you guys, don't
get your your plans up for moving anytime soon.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Just settle in.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Well that made me feel more comfortable, because now I
have some information better than nothing. And what was surprising
was the over all the conversation turned to good. These
guys were all happy about the deportation and were in
(12:52):
favor of what Trump and Elon were doing something. It
was interesting they kind of lumped them together like they
were were partners or.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
The same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
But the feeling was that they were unhappy about the
benefits that the illegals are getting that they don't get
and aren't available to them, and uh, they were happy
with it. And that surprised me. That there's there's lots
of political conversation going on the whole time, and there
was a lot of stuff about them being upset about
(13:22):
the Biden administration sending all the money overseas when we
need help here and and that, and that was a
pretty common thing I heard when I was in the
big room with everybody. But the immigration thing really surprised
me that they were all in favor of that.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
You said, the demographic breakdown of the of the jail
birds one you were there was what.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Ooh, I don't know, probably.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
More than fifty black ish or fifty is, you know,
somewhere around, maybe more, and then probably another thirty percent
some kind of Spanish speaking, and then other you know,
there was some white people, and there was a couple
of Asian guys that I talked to, and there was
(14:15):
an Indian guy that I talked to quite a bit.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
But if they're Spanish speaking, they're Mexican. You can have
like Mexican Dominican, but they're Mexican in Texas right on.
That's just the old red Tan reference. It's just all Mexicans,
Colombian Mexicans. Okay. So so you said that because you've
gotten really into tattoos in the last couple of years,
and so as your wife, that that ended up being
(14:39):
something that that kind of gave you some some cred
with these guys. Tell me about that for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
So I've I've got my arms and most people don't
even know I have any tattoos because I don't have
my arms or neck or any of that done. But
I've got a full color body suit, full color tattoos
all over me. And so I'm wearing shorts and uh,
the I was wearing when I came in. They don't
give you pants, you know, you keep your your street
your street shorts or pants, and uh the crocs, and no,
(15:06):
I had crocs in with no socks, and my feet
are tattooed and everything, and uh, full color tattoos are
pretty rare, and that starts a lot of conversations. Everybody
wants to talk about.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
That, including some of the uh, you know, the the.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Guards would walk by and be like, dude, that's crazy,
you know, let me let me look at that for
a minute. And uh that that started a lot of
conversations with everybody help.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Half the time Michael Robinson texted those tattoos black, I
probably shouldn't even say what he said. He's ask.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Michael Berry continues, all.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
All right, we're trying to plan a meet up. I'll
have a for this evening. You don't Yeah, well never mind.
I don't know why I waste time on that because
I'll get a buck. Hey, my I can't make it,
but I wish I could. That's okay, that'll be overwhelmed
with that message. But I'm trying to find a time
and place we can meet up this evening to have
(16:12):
a beer with Bert and we'll well, not a big
parking lot because he might be tempted to do another burnout.
We don't need another burnout. But so a couple of
things I found interesting. Our friend Bert Harvey was arrested.
It was a mistaken identity or a Robert Harvey in Ohio.
That's a really bad guy. Bert. You said that you
(16:34):
were surprised that the inmates black brown, all of them,
that they loved Trump and Elon. Tell me about that.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah, it was just you're sitting around and the main
conversations are either what your case is and how you
can get out of it. Food that's a big one.
Everybody wants to talk about what they're going to eat
when they get out. And then political stuff, you know,
with just the law in general, and then also politics
and man, it was a lot of talk about the
(17:04):
wasteful spending and how it's been going to other countries
and that it's not right because of all the problems
we have here at home and we don't take care
of them, and the conditions he's here and the conditions
you know, those people feel like they they live in
and deal with and don't get the help that they need,
and they were glad that something's been done about it.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You said you got a meal every eight hours. Tell
what it was.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
So every eight hours the trustees come around and they
give you a brown paper bag. It's got four slices
of bread in it, and two little like the sandwich
baggies when you were a kid in school, with some
slices of baloonney tucked into it, and another little baggy
with a couple of lemon cookies. Looks like an oreo,
but it's a vanilla wafer with the lemon spread inside
(17:52):
of it. And you get that every eight hours. And
somehow I had the luck of most all of mine
came with the heel of the bread. I don't know.
I don't know how that happened so often, but it did.
So last night, I don't get any mustard or mayonnaise.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Last night we were That was my first question, Did
to get mustard or mayonnaise? No chips? Last night we
were talking to my wife and me and Emily because
they're moving my dad into assistant living today here so
he can be close to us here and so we
can take care of him. And I was telling this,
I was telling all the story because I've written all
these notes about our conversation. And I said to my
(18:30):
wife and Emily, I said, and can you believe almost
every slice of bread he got was the butt end
and Emily said, oh man, my wife said, what is
the butt end? I said, you know the butt end?
You got the butt ind I couldn't think of the
word heel, but I said that, and my wife said,
is that a bad thing? You didn't grow up eaten sandwiches,
did you? I mean, how do you not know? Nobody
(18:52):
wants to butt end. I don't think that was Jamison
out to get you. I think you just had a
you pulled a bad draw right there. You know, sometimes
you just you just kind of pull a bad draw.
Let's see, it was something else. I wanted to make
sure that we got in about your time there. It
does bear noting that your experience with everyone, oddly enough,
(19:12):
both inmates and those working. Your experience with everyone in
the system, every cop, every admin, staff was very positive.
You had nothing but nice things to say about them.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Correct one hundred percent, man, everybody, everything, and even like
I said, whenever guards we're having a discipline or correct, hey,
get back in line, stand over there be quiet. They
were fair. I didn't see anybody ever do anything out
of line. And for me personally, my personal interaction with everybody,
(19:45):
they all gave me back the exact courtesy and respect.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
And the same energy I gave them.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And I have no complaints about anything that everything was fine.
It was uncomfortable, don't want to go again. But other
than the initial part uh with the officer. After that,
it was just going through a process and everybody made
it as easy as they could.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
And there were a couple of phrases that you said
that if you never hear again, that'd be soon enough.
Because every inmate uses them to begin every sentence.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Man, they all say I ain't gonna lie at the
beginning of every sentence, and.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
The other one they throw it in, I A'm gonna lie
and on God and on my mom. Every it's it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
And once I heard it and I focused on it
a little bit, I couldn't quit hearing I I hyper
focused on it, and uh, yeah, it's a lot.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I ain't even gonna lie on my mama. It's a lie.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
And your first meal out of jail after thirty two hours,
there was.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Waffle House.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Two egg breakfasts, bacon, hash browns covered and smothered in
a big unsweet tea.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I thought you said, with cheese toast with grape jelly.
That's too much on your bread.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
No, no, no, no, no, the cheese was on the hash
brows the toast. I put a little grape jelly on
the toast.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Oh. I wrote down hash Browns with cheese, toast with
grape jelly. And I thought when I wrote that down,
I didn't think about it because I was dictating. And
I now realize I thought you had overloaded the bread
and that was just gonna be too much. That was
just gonna be too much. Oh, okay, we have hold on, Burt.
Can you hang with me for a second. We have
a call from the the Ohio Robert Harvey, the mistaken
(21:38):
identity FBI Robert Mike?
Speaker 3 (21:44):

Speaker 4 (21:45):
Yes, yeah, I hear you got a guy on your
show that is trading in on my name.

I'll be calling you my prison wife was, and I'll
be calling you Bert. I don't even like the name.
I don't even like the name bird stupid.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Like a little we haven't met our moment. I'm watching
the merch sales online. We've never saw merch like this.
All merch sales for this, by the way, go to
uh the Burt the prophets may have to buy a
(24:22):
new gun and new tires. Yeah, hey Bert, why don't
you tell a lot of people don't know this about
Bert Harvey. But when Burt was a young man, his
father passed and so he had to grow up fast.
How were you when your dad died?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Eighteen?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Okay, so he became the man of the house. He
had to grow up fast. And do you know that
he had like Carl and sling blade. He had a
little small engine repair. Did you know that?

Speaker 2 (25:01):
It's over there on forty five in the Spring area.
Some of the guys that I worked with over there
after I left and went into home building, they kept
the shop and they're still operating it over there right now.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
It's open today.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
And what does it say, Burt So got my name
on it.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Burt's Dirt Works.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
We did four wheelers and dirt bikes and jet skis
and just you know that kind of small engine stuff.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Man, that is that is the most redneck thing you
could ever do. That's impressive. Nothing.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, it was fun. Just couldn't make any money. I
couldn't make any money at it, but it was fun.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
And the truck you were doing the burnout in what
was that? Was that the one you built for Sean,
your son?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
It is?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, it's a twenty five year old little half ton
dodge work truck. And my friends out in Magnolia at
Magnolia Musel Performance put a twelve Dob Cummings engine out
of a big truck and it's got a little hot
rod stuff on it. It's just a neat, fun little truck.
And you know, since we'd had that truck, that is
(26:03):
the very first time I've spun the tires on it
because I didn't want to break it or tear it
up because of Shawn's truck.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
And I ended up in jail for it.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
And you were kind of embarrassed as a car guy
in a in a car club that you had trouble
doing a burnout.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Tell why, Well, sure, So it's a standard truck.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
And when you're gonna gonna do a little power break
in a in a manual transmission, you've got to hold
the brake with your toe and the gas with your
heel and to clutch with the other foot, and you've
got to get that little that little dance figured out.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
And I'd never done it in that truck.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
So in the video, I've actually stalled the truck out
twice before before I get it to start spinning the tires.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
That's like when you first learned to drive, and you
you know, you somehow get out of the house, but
you you're you're at the school. I had a little
VW golf uh, and I remember the VW Rabbit Sorry
seventy nine. And I remember the first time I tried
to pull out of school and I was gonna be
cool because I had a car, and I let off
the clutch too fast and petered out, and that was,
(27:00):
uh that was not my my favorite, uh my, my
best moment out of that. So you said, I'm just
looking over my nose to make sure I got everything.
You said that that you the fact that you have
color on your tattoos and your honor, if it may
be entered into the evidence. Again, I hate tattoos, and
I'm surrounded by people with tattoos. Ramon's got a bunch
(27:21):
of them. Bert is now on a tattooed tear. His
wife's on a tattoo tear. My assistant is tattooed. Every
inch of her you can see in public is tattooed,
and lord knows what's going under under the clothes. It's
just it's it's crazy. But you said that the fact
that you had tattoos on your feet and armpits gave
you a lot of credibility with the inmates.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Is that right, Yeah, they'd see my feet and that's
that's unusual. And in the full color, like around your
ankles and up your shin bones. Because color takes a
lot of sessions and a lot of time. It's not
a you got a black and great tattoo. They went
over at once and the thing heels and it's done
with color. You got to keep going back and doing
it over and over again. And they'd see my feet
(28:03):
and comment on it and ask me how that felt.
And then you start talking about tattoo pain, and I say, well,
the worst was the armpits. Then I show them in
my whole armpits and down my sides and chest and
back are completely covered. But the armpits and the feet
definitely started some conversations.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Okay, we've got your documents in front of me. Here's
your car's number, here's the State of Texas versus Robert
Harvey in the Criminal Court at Law number fifteen, motion
for sufficient bail, and they are listing your Ohio offenses.
They're still listing your so your case still has in
(28:42):
the charge your driving while intoxic, not yours, but his,
the other Robert Harvey, his driving while intoxicated in Richland County, Ohio.
And then there is the state's motion for bond conditions
that you not be allowed to possess any firearms, ammunition,
or other weapons that you submit to random your analysis.
(29:03):
That you be prohibited prohibited from operating a motor vehicle
without a driver's license, prove a financial responsibility and permission
of the court. Well that should be everybody. This is
Jennifer Keith's assistant district attorney. They're trying to act like
this Ohio thing is still real. You know this is
not all because this is not a good moment for
law enforcement. This should be fixed worthwith and things like this,
(29:26):
it's okay to make a mistake. They're processing a lot
of people. I feel sorry for them, but they know
there's a mistake now and they're not fixing it, and
that pisces me off the way go ahead.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yeah, it's when Deputy Jamison realized that the booking officer,
who was being very helpful, asked him did he already submitted?
And he did, And they tried to go backwards in
the computer and take it out and they couldn't and
and it stuck there. But even when the pre child guy,
I'm not sure what his title is, but the pre
(29:57):
child guy that helped me and gave me the r bond.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
He saw it, and he knew that it.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Wasn't me, but he could see it, and he said, well,
I don't know why this is still here, but it
is and I'm going to release you. And you know,
I asked him, well, what happens with getting my gun back?
And he said, man, I don't know about that. You've
got to go through a whole nother process to do that.
But he did tell me, until all of this is
cleared up, I cannot have a gun, be around a gun,
(30:24):
be in the vicinity of a gun. I can't have
anything to do with guns, because I've got a weapon
charge on me, you.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Know, putting a ticki tack ticket on a burnout peel
out in the parking lot. Okay, all right. You know,
I'm sure every officer's had a bad day and they've
done that to get you for to add on to
that failure to signal, because well, we've got to add
as much as we can. When you're turning onto a
(30:55):
one way street, I mean, it's the access road to
get on two forty nine. Whether you you use your
blinker or not, we're pretty sure you're pulling out with
the traffic and not going against it. And then the
unlawful possession of a weapon. Now that's the one that
gets me and chaps my ass because you lawfully possess
(31:15):
the weapon. Because we're a constitutional law carry constitutional carry state.
You can lawfully carry a gun no matter what. But
you also happen to have a concealed handgun license, and
it becomes the unlawful possession of a weapon at the
moment that you're committing a crime. And I'm told by
district attorneys that that's usually used when someone when they're
trying to tack stuff on to somebody who's drunk driving
(31:37):
that he's drunk driving and has a gun or doing
something else. We are folks, We are not going to
do the meet up for Burt today. Ramon just reminded
me we removing my dad into assisted living today, so
that's just a bit too much. But we will. We
will let you know when and where that will be.
I see you skip Hartley and all of you buying
your your free Burt merchandise on our website at Michael
(32:00):
Berryshow dot com. We will give you updates as this
case progresses. Thanks for sharing your story with us, Burke, Yes, sir,
thank you, and I guess Allsweldon ends Will. The truth
is Birch's not bitter. I talked to him after he
got out of jail after thirty two hours, and I
was more mad than he was. You know, Look, I
(32:23):
love law enforcement. You know this, and so does he.
But everybody makes a mistake and this guy made a mistake,
and the right thing for him to do is come
forward and admit to it.
It's that time. Time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Berry Show is on the air, thaning vert, you
(00:26):
must be popular. I just announced seven minutes ago that
we have free Burt mugs, t shirts and the whole
merchandise line, and they are flying. I don't think anything
is sold this fast. And by the way, for those
of you who go to Michael Berryshow dot com our
website and it says merchandise or I forget what the
(00:49):
term we use there, the photo that we use there
is from his actual mugshot. See it, and Landon did
all that. It's would say Michael Berry's store when you
go to Michael Berry's Show, and the funds here will
be used. Let's see if it'll take me right there?
(01:11):
Oh yeah, yea. As soon as you go the homepage,
you scroll down a little bit, all right, Bert, So
for those of you who just tuned in, our friend
Bert Harvey, who everybody remembers from the RCC, Everybody's friend,
everybody loves Burt. He gets pulled over for doing a
burnout with a sixteen year old son in the truck
with him. His wife and his other son are behind him.
(01:33):
They're over at a meetup for people that like these
hot rod trucks and things. And he does a little
basically peeling out was what we would have called it
when I was growing up. And a cop here's it,
doesn't see it, pulls up behind him and starts throwing
charges at him. Well, he first goes and looks up
(01:53):
his record, and Bert's full name is Robert Harvey. He
gets the wrong Robert Harvey, a guy in in Ohio
that's got a long record of very bad stuff, and
he assumes this is that Burt. When they take him
in for processing, they go, no, that's not him. The
officer goes and checks, says, I made a mistake. You're right,
it's not him, but I'm pushing this thing anyway. So
(02:16):
Bert is now at the jail. Curly is contacting me
during the break Bert, this is all happening in real time.
He wants to know if you got to keep the
crocs that they gave you when they took your Hey
dudes from you.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
No, but you know, when I was processing out, I'd
ask one of the deputies. I said, hey, man, is
there any way I can keep this shirt, like just
slip my other shirt on over it? And he said, yeah,
if you want to stay for another couple of days,
I'll just turn you around and put.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
You back on the elevator. No, probably not going to
do that.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But I did try to keep one of the shirts,
so you know, if there's any way I could get
one of those, I'd sure like to have it.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You know what, I'm going to find somebody that works
at the jail or whatever else. We're not going to
steal it, but that will maybe Sheriff Gonzales will let
me buy one. I think it would be appropriate. We're
gonna get your shirt and the graphic that we're selling
the free birt merch with. We can find some way
to get that printed onto one of those, because that
(03:15):
would be a hoot. People would love that. We may
have to do a meet up this evening for all
the Bert Harvey fans to buy you a beer, although
we got to be careful. We can't let you drive
home from there, because that wouldn't be real funny. If
we're over here trashing Jamison for a mistake in identity,
and you're such a good guy, and well you can
see where that would go. It is worth noting you
(03:35):
and I were talking about this, the guy of how
many really nice people there were in the process who
did nothing wrong. Only Jamison did. Like the guy who
gave you the socks, the new pair of socks, because
you weren't wearing socks with your hey dudes.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Right on.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, So they take your shoes in. He said, man,
you don't have socks, I know. And he let me
look around for a minute, and he went and dug
through a bunch of stuff in the back and he
came out and he goes, here, you don't want to
be walking around here barefoot to take these socks.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Every officer or deputy and every jail employee I dealt with.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
They were all fair. They were all as nice as
they could be in the circumstances. Some of them had
to be stirring because you're in a group of guys
and some of them are acting up. But I didn't
experience one thing in.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
There that I thought was out of line. And everybody I.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Personally interacted with gave me back to same energy I
gave them, and was respectful and kind. I have no
complaints anywhere through the system.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
And you had people who were at intake in various
levels saying there's no reason you should be here. These
are guys who deal with this all day every day,
and they were saying to you, I don't know what's
going on. You didn't. So when Sarah told me you'd
been arrested in what the charge was, my thought was
(04:56):
you had mouthed off to the cop. But to be
very clear, he he never said any of that. Obviously
you know you didn't, but he's never said that anywhere.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
No, I was as compliant and nice as I could be,
and that that is something that does make me sad
because you know, Sean, he's never been interacted with police
other than us in public or RCC being supportive. So
he was scared and I said, Sean, it's okay. Just
roll your window down, keep your hands visible, and use
your manners.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Well, you know, now my son's first interaction with the
police is this, and you know, I'm talking to him
over the weekend and he's got a real sour taste
and is for police right now. And what they did,
I'm just gonna have to overcome with them. Yeah, because
of what they did to me. You know, I kept
telling the whole time, Hey, this is gonna be okay.
We're gonna get a ticket.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
This is no big deal.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
We're fine, may be just a warning, who knows, but
it turned into all this and he's he's really upset
about it.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
So then you get caught up in your Forest Gump
experience here, as luck would have it or not, with
the fact that all those immigration arrests are going on,
and that gets you stuck for way longer than it
would have been. Tell that story it is.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Well, so we go see a pre trial person and
I'm not sure exactly what their title is, but he
was a really nice guy. And he decides if you're
going to get a pr bond or if you're going
to go to court, all of that, and he reads
my charges and he looks at me and says, what
are you here for?
Speaker 3 (06:36):
And I said that that's it.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
He goes, well, you did a burnout. I said yes, sir,
and he goes, this doesn't make any sense. I don't
understand why you're here. And I told him I think
it's this Ohio thing and he goes, yeah, but that's
not you. And I said, I understand that, but it's
still it's there. And he goes, man, I don't know
why you're here, and he asked me, you know, do
I have a job, and could I afford an attorney?
And I told him absolutely I can, and he said, well,
(07:01):
I fully expect you're going to get this taken care of.
And he's I'm going to give you a PR bond
and you're on your way. Well a few I'll tell
you one quick thing. During this time, once that information
was available, Sarah was able to look it up online.
And it's the middle of the night, I don't know,
two or three in the morning or something. She looks
this up Michael and gets the whole report and all
(07:25):
of this Ohio stuff is on there. Now when she's
looking at it, it's got my full identity, my picture,
my current charges, and then all of this Ohio stuff,
all these terrible this long record of this guy. And
she's freaking out, going, oh my god, is this something
my husband did before I knew him?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
How do I not know this? And she has to
believe it because it's in the computer.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
So she calls my friend Forrest and just crying, I
don't know, and Forrest no, when eventually this was going
to be funny, pauses and says, yeah, yeah, I had
to go get him from all that, but we weren't
weren't going to talk about it, and uh, Sarah loses
it and then he tells her, no, no, no, that's
(08:08):
it's got to be a mistaken identity.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
No, you know, no, Burt his whole life, it's not true.
She wasn't she wasn't in on how funny that joke was.
But for us, guys, that's that's what your that's what
your buddy does. Hold on Burt Harvey's I guess he's
been freed from jail.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Segment exclusively produced by Halwaiian Chad mcnishi Aloha bro Ha
a Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
After an officer who didn't see but heard him peel
out in a parking lot with his sixteen year old
son there, the officer takes his license plate, runs the
name and Bert Harvey's full name is Robert Harvey, and
he ends up with a Robert Harvey in Ohio. That's
a totally different Robert Harvey. He didn't do his job,
(08:54):
which was to verify that this is the same guy
with the same birthdate, So he brings him down for process,
and when he's told by the next officer that hey,
this isn't that Bert Harvey. There's no there's no FBI case.
This guy didn't have domestic violence and DUI and assault.
This isn't that guy. This guy you're just so you
(09:15):
figure the dad and going to take the case, right. Oh,
they're taking the case all right. And this officer is
all over it, this Deputy Jamison, because now he's embarrassed.
He's embarrassed. He screwed up. And just like I tell
my kids, there's nothing wrong with screwing up. It's the
cover up that gets you in trouble. So now his
egos on the line and he's so Bert's in jail
(09:38):
for thirty hours before they can get him out. But
you did say that the jail was kind of nicer
than you expected, right.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
It is nicer.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I mean the restroom situation is, uh, there's there's it's
like Buckie's. There's doors all along the wall. You go
in there and there's your toilet and the sinks. Now
it's not as nice as BUCkies, but everything's in individual rooms.
There's TVs up everywhere, there's carpet on the floor, chairs
to sit in, phones everywhere.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's not that why didn't you use in what way
is it similar? To BUCkies.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Because there are individual stalls with doors. You know, sometimes
you go into a public restroom sitting there.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And every place just f to a bathroom that had
individual stalls or doors at Buckis, so that if somebody
has that, they all over the floor. He was just like, BUCkies,
how much you the beaver nuggets? How different aren't they?
They are the life beef sandwich.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So so after pre trial, the guy doesn't tell me
that the charges don't make sense, You're gonna get a
PR bond. And a little while after that, after the
Forest in Ohio Sara story, they moved me in a
group of a smaller group of people to a smaller
room with probably you know, I don't know twenty or
thirty people in it. And uh, this is a pre
release room. And when you're in there, everybody around you
(11:05):
has an opinion about uh. Uh they're all they're all
jail house lawyers, and they all kind of tell you
what's next and how long things should take, and uh,
they're all determined or telling everybody that I should expect
to be there be out on the street within about
four maybe five hours from right then an hour or
two here, and an hour two the next spot, getting
your property back and then you're out. Well, we sit
(11:27):
there for four and a half hours with nothing, and
the guards well, I don't know, maybe eleven o'clock at night, midnight,
something like that one somewhere, and we sit there for
four or five hours with nothing, and the guards aren't
giving us any information, and of course the the guys
that are loud are asking constantly and that they're nothing. Well,
(11:50):
they do a shift change and the new guard comes
and he took the time to say, listen, the jail's
on lockdown right now because Ice is here picking up
illegals and buses to deport them, and they're having trouble
locating at least one, maybe some, and so they're not
(12:13):
going to allow any movement until they've gone through and
located all these people and transporferred them downstairs, and you know,
put them on the buses and they're gone.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Nobody's going anywhere.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
And he said, I don't know how long it's gonna be,
but it doesn't look like you know, you guys, don't
get your your plans up for moving anytime soon.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Just settle in.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Well that made me feel more comfortable, because now I
have some information better than nothing. And what was surprising
was the over all the conversation turned to good. These
guys were all happy about the deportation and were in
(12:52):
favor of what Trump and Elon were doing something. It
was interesting they kind of lumped them together like they
were were partners or.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
The same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
But the feeling was that they were unhappy about the
benefits that the illegals are getting that they don't get
and aren't available to them, and uh, they were happy
with it. And that surprised me. That there's there's lots
of political conversation going on the whole time, and there
was a lot of stuff about them being upset about
(13:22):
the Biden administration sending all the money overseas when we
need help here and and that, and that was a
pretty common thing I heard when I was in the
big room with everybody. But the immigration thing really surprised
me that they were all in favor of that.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
You said, the demographic breakdown of the of the jail
birds one you were there was what.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Ooh, I don't know, probably.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
More than fifty black ish or fifty is, you know,
somewhere around, maybe more, and then probably another thirty percent
some kind of Spanish speaking, and then other you know,
there was some white people, and there was a couple
of Asian guys that I talked to, and there was
(14:15):
an Indian guy that I talked to quite a bit.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
But if they're Spanish speaking, they're Mexican. You can have
like Mexican Dominican, but they're Mexican in Texas right on.
That's just the old red Tan reference. It's just all Mexicans,
Colombian Mexicans. Okay. So so you said that because you've
gotten really into tattoos in the last couple of years,
and so as your wife, that that ended up being
(14:39):
something that that kind of gave you some some cred
with these guys. Tell me about that for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
So I've I've got my arms and most people don't
even know I have any tattoos because I don't have
my arms or neck or any of that done. But
I've got a full color body suit, full color tattoos
all over me. And so I'm wearing shorts and uh,
the I was wearing when I came in. They don't
give you pants, you know, you keep your your street
your street shorts or pants, and uh the crocs, and no,
(15:06):
I had crocs in with no socks, and my feet
are tattooed and everything, and uh, full color tattoos are
pretty rare, and that starts a lot of conversations. Everybody
wants to talk about.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
That, including some of the uh, you know, the the.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Guards would walk by and be like, dude, that's crazy,
you know, let me let me look at that for
a minute. And uh that that started a lot of
conversations with everybody help.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Half the time Michael Robinson texted those tattoos black, I
probably shouldn't even say what he said. He's ask.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Michael Berry continues, all.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
All right, we're trying to plan a meet up. I'll
have a for this evening. You don't Yeah, well never mind.
I don't know why I waste time on that because
I'll get a buck. Hey, my I can't make it,
but I wish I could. That's okay, that'll be overwhelmed
with that message. But I'm trying to find a time
and place we can meet up this evening to have
(16:12):
a beer with Bert and we'll well, not a big
parking lot because he might be tempted to do another burnout.
We don't need another burnout. But so a couple of
things I found interesting. Our friend Bert Harvey was arrested.
It was a mistaken identity or a Robert Harvey in Ohio.
That's a really bad guy. Bert. You said that you
(16:34):
were surprised that the inmates black brown, all of them,
that they loved Trump and Elon. Tell me about that.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah, it was just you're sitting around and the main
conversations are either what your case is and how you
can get out of it. Food that's a big one.
Everybody wants to talk about what they're going to eat
when they get out. And then political stuff, you know,
with just the law in general, and then also politics
and man, it was a lot of talk about the
(17:04):
wasteful spending and how it's been going to other countries
and that it's not right because of all the problems
we have here at home and we don't take care
of them, and the conditions he's here and the conditions
you know, those people feel like they they live in
and deal with and don't get the help that they need,
and they were glad that something's been done about it.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You said you got a meal every eight hours. Tell
what it was.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
So every eight hours the trustees come around and they
give you a brown paper bag. It's got four slices
of bread in it, and two little like the sandwich
baggies when you were a kid in school, with some
slices of baloonney tucked into it, and another little baggy
with a couple of lemon cookies. Looks like an oreo,
but it's a vanilla wafer with the lemon spread inside
(17:52):
of it. And you get that every eight hours. And
somehow I had the luck of most all of mine
came with the heel of the bread. I don't know.
I don't know how that happened so often, but it did.
So last night, I don't get any mustard or mayonnaise.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Last night we were That was my first question, Did
to get mustard or mayonnaise? No chips? Last night we
were talking to my wife and me and Emily because
they're moving my dad into assistant living today here so
he can be close to us here and so we
can take care of him. And I was telling this,
I was telling all the story because I've written all
these notes about our conversation. And I said to my
(18:30):
wife and Emily, I said, and can you believe almost
every slice of bread he got was the butt end
and Emily said, oh man, my wife said, what is
the butt end? I said, you know the butt end?
You got the butt ind I couldn't think of the
word heel, but I said that, and my wife said,
is that a bad thing? You didn't grow up eaten sandwiches,
did you? I mean, how do you not know? Nobody
(18:52):
wants to butt end. I don't think that was Jamison
out to get you. I think you just had a
you pulled a bad draw right there. You know, sometimes
you just you just kind of pull a bad draw.
Let's see, it was something else. I wanted to make
sure that we got in about your time there. It
does bear noting that your experience with everyone, oddly enough,
(19:12):
both inmates and those working. Your experience with everyone in
the system, every cop, every admin, staff was very positive.
You had nothing but nice things to say about them.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Correct one hundred percent, man, everybody, everything, and even like
I said, whenever guards we're having a discipline or correct, hey,
get back in line, stand over there be quiet. They
were fair. I didn't see anybody ever do anything out
of line. And for me personally, my personal interaction with everybody,
(19:45):
they all gave me back the exact courtesy and respect.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
And the same energy I gave them.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And I have no complaints about anything that everything was fine.
It was uncomfortable, don't want to go again. But other
than the initial part uh with the officer. After that,
it was just going through a process and everybody made
it as easy as they could.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
And there were a couple of phrases that you said
that if you never hear again, that'd be soon enough.
Because every inmate uses them to begin every sentence.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Man, they all say I ain't gonna lie at the
beginning of every sentence, and.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
The other one they throw it in, I A'm gonna lie
and on God and on my mom. Every it's it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
And once I heard it and I focused on it
a little bit, I couldn't quit hearing I I hyper
focused on it, and uh, yeah, it's a lot.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I ain't even gonna lie on my mama. It's a lie.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
And your first meal out of jail after thirty two hours,
there was.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Waffle House.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Two egg breakfasts, bacon, hash browns covered and smothered in
a big unsweet tea.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I thought you said, with cheese toast with grape jelly.
That's too much on your bread.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
No, no, no, no, no, the cheese was on the hash
brows the toast. I put a little grape jelly on
the toast.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Oh. I wrote down hash Browns with cheese, toast with
grape jelly. And I thought when I wrote that down,
I didn't think about it because I was dictating. And
I now realize I thought you had overloaded the bread
and that was just gonna be too much. That was
just gonna be too much. Oh, okay, we have hold on, Burt.
Can you hang with me for a second. We have
a call from the the Ohio Robert Harvey, the mistaken
(21:38):
identity FBI Robert Mike?
Speaker 3 (21:44):

Speaker 4 (21:45):
Yes, yeah, I hear you got a guy on your
show that is trading in on my name.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
Oh, I'm gonna get a gun charge.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I don't need no gun to hand. You ain't nothing.

In Maybury jail.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
We we've all done that. That ain't nothing.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Damn have you ever been in here as a jail Robert?
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Listen to him, White Peter, I don't need to be
in no Harris kind of. I heard him talking about
the meal he got he got Brett. Wait, I didn't
get bread and I was in jail. I never got
bread in jail, No, sir, we got crackers.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
How many times you? Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I stopped keeping track to be honest, right now, I'm
just trying to I'm just trying to hide out so
that warrant don't catch me.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
That's all. Who's the one who answered when you called in?
He said that you want to bring a case against Burt?
Speaker 3 (23:25):
I do? I do?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
He's infringing on my name. I've got a patent on
my name.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Ain't nobody taking money out.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Of my pocket.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
He goes out there and gets yourself arrested and thinks
he can raise money on it. No, sir, that ain't
gonna happen. Hear his meet up is because.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Oh, you think you're funny called the wife, but.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
I've been called worse. I'll tell you what. I'm gone.
I'll be calling you my prison wife was, and I'll
be calling you Bert. I don't even like the name.
I don't even like the name bird stupid.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Like a little we haven't met our moment. I'm watching
the merch sales online. We've never saw merch like this.
All merch sales for this, by the way, go to
uh the Burt the prophets may have to buy a
(24:22):
new gun and new tires. Yeah, hey Bert, why don't
you tell a lot of people don't know this about
Bert Harvey. But when Burt was a young man, his
father passed and so he had to grow up fast.
How were you when your dad died?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Eighteen?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Okay, so he became the man of the house. He
had to grow up fast. And do you know that
he had like Carl and sling blade. He had a
little small engine repair. Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Uh huh?
Speaker 1 (24:54):
It was called Burt's We're Isn't the sign still there?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Ramon?
Speaker 1 (24:57):
I mean, no, Bert, it is.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
It's over there on forty five in the Spring area.
Some of the guys that I worked with over there
after I left and went into home building, they kept
the shop and they're still operating it over there right now.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
It's open today.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
And what does it say, Burt So got my name
on it.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Burt's Dirt Works.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
We did four wheelers and dirt bikes and jet skis
and just you know that kind of small engine stuff.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Man, that is that is the most redneck thing you
could ever do. That's impressive. Nothing.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, it was fun. Just couldn't make any money. I
couldn't make any money at it, but it was fun.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
And the truck you were doing the burnout in what
was that? Was that the one you built for Sean,
your son?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
It is?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, it's a twenty five year old little half ton
dodge work truck. And my friends out in Magnolia at
Magnolia Musel Performance put a twelve Dob Cummings engine out
of a big truck and it's got a little hot
rod stuff on it. It's just a neat, fun little truck.
And you know, since we'd had that truck, that is
(26:03):
the very first time I've spun the tires on it
because I didn't want to break it or tear it
up because of Shawn's truck.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
And I ended up in jail for it.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
And you were kind of embarrassed as a car guy
in a in a car club that you had trouble
doing a burnout.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Tell why, Well, sure, So it's a standard truck.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
And when you're gonna gonna do a little power break
in a in a manual transmission, you've got to hold
the brake with your toe and the gas with your
heel and to clutch with the other foot, and you've
got to get that little that little dance figured out.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
And I'd never done it in that truck.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
So in the video, I've actually stalled the truck out
twice before before I get it to start spinning the tires.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
That's like when you first learned to drive, and you
you know, you somehow get out of the house, but
you you're you're at the school. I had a little
VW golf uh, and I remember the VW Rabbit Sorry
seventy nine. And I remember the first time I tried
to pull out of school and I was gonna be
cool because I had a car, and I let off
the clutch too fast and petered out, and that was,
(27:00):
uh that was not my my favorite, uh my, my
best moment out of that. So you said, I'm just
looking over my nose to make sure I got everything.
You said that that you the fact that you have
color on your tattoos and your honor, if it may
be entered into the evidence. Again, I hate tattoos, and
I'm surrounded by people with tattoos. Ramon's got a bunch
(27:21):
of them. Bert is now on a tattooed tear. His
wife's on a tattoo tear. My assistant is tattooed. Every
inch of her you can see in public is tattooed,
and lord knows what's going under under the clothes. It's
just it's it's crazy. But you said that the fact
that you had tattoos on your feet and armpits gave
you a lot of credibility with the inmates.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Is that right, Yeah, they'd see my feet and that's
that's unusual. And in the full color, like around your
ankles and up your shin bones. Because color takes a
lot of sessions and a lot of time. It's not
a you got a black and great tattoo. They went
over at once and the thing heels and it's done
with color. You got to keep going back and doing
it over and over again. And they'd see my feet
(28:03):
and comment on it and ask me how that felt.
And then you start talking about tattoo pain, and I say, well,
the worst was the armpits. Then I show them in
my whole armpits and down my sides and chest and
back are completely covered. But the armpits and the feet
definitely started some conversations.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Okay, we've got your documents in front of me. Here's
your car's number, here's the State of Texas versus Robert
Harvey in the Criminal Court at Law number fifteen, motion
for sufficient bail, and they are listing your Ohio offenses.
They're still listing your so your case still has in
(28:42):
the charge your driving while intoxic, not yours, but his,
the other Robert Harvey, his driving while intoxicated in Richland County, Ohio.
And then there is the state's motion for bond conditions
that you not be allowed to possess any firearms, ammunition,
or other weapons that you submit to random your analysis.
(29:03):
That you be prohibited prohibited from operating a motor vehicle
without a driver's license, prove a financial responsibility and permission
of the court. Well that should be everybody. This is
Jennifer Keith's assistant district attorney. They're trying to act like
this Ohio thing is still real. You know this is
not all because this is not a good moment for
law enforcement. This should be fixed worthwith and things like this,
(29:26):
it's okay to make a mistake. They're processing a lot
of people. I feel sorry for them, but they know
there's a mistake now and they're not fixing it, and
that pisces me off the way go ahead.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yeah, it's when Deputy Jamison realized that the booking officer,
who was being very helpful, asked him did he already submitted?
And he did, And they tried to go backwards in
the computer and take it out and they couldn't and
and it stuck there. But even when the pre child guy,
I'm not sure what his title is, but the pre
(29:57):
child guy that helped me and gave me the r bond.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
He saw it, and he knew that it.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Wasn't me, but he could see it, and he said, well,
I don't know why this is still here, but it
is and I'm going to release you. And you know,
I asked him, well, what happens with getting my gun back?
And he said, man, I don't know about that. You've
got to go through a whole nother process to do that.
But he did tell me, until all of this is
cleared up, I cannot have a gun, be around a gun,
(30:24):
be in the vicinity of a gun. I can't have
anything to do with guns, because I've got a weapon
charge on me, you.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Know, putting a ticki tack ticket on a burnout peel
out in the parking lot. Okay, all right. You know,
I'm sure every officer's had a bad day and they've
done that to get you for to add on to
that failure to signal, because well, we've got to add
as much as we can. When you're turning onto a
(30:55):
one way street, I mean, it's the access road to
get on two forty nine. Whether you you use your
blinker or not, we're pretty sure you're pulling out with
the traffic and not going against it. And then the
unlawful possession of a weapon. Now that's the one that
gets me and chaps my ass because you lawfully possess
(31:15):
the weapon. Because we're a constitutional law carry constitutional carry state.
You can lawfully carry a gun no matter what. But
you also happen to have a concealed handgun license, and
it becomes the unlawful possession of a weapon at the
moment that you're committing a crime. And I'm told by
district attorneys that that's usually used when someone when they're
trying to tack stuff on to somebody who's drunk driving
(31:37):
that he's drunk driving and has a gun or doing
something else. We are folks, We are not going to
do the meet up for Burt today. Ramon just reminded
me we removing my dad into assisted living today, so
that's just a bit too much. But we will. We
will let you know when and where that will be.
I see you skip Hartley and all of you buying
your your free Burt merchandise on our website at Michael
(32:00):
Berryshow dot com. We will give you updates as this
case progresses. Thanks for sharing your story with us, Burke, Yes, sir,
thank you, and I guess Allsweldon ends Will. The truth
is Birch's not bitter. I talked to him after he
got out of jail after thirty two hours, and I
was more mad than he was. You know, Look, I
(32:23):
love law enforcement. You know this, and so does he.
But everybody makes a mistake and this guy made a mistake,
and the right thing for him to do is come
forward and admit to it.
