Speaker 1 (00:00):
I don't know how you found.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Us, but I'm so thankful that you did.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
It's John Jay and Rich there was a murder in
my neighborhood. A murder in my neighborhood, and it's very serious.
In fact, People magazine actually wrote about it yesterday like
it's gotten some some pretty high stuff because it's a
very interesting story and it's very sad. So then Rich says,
what are besides John Jay, who else has had a
murder on their street? That was a good question, and

(00:26):
I thought, I wondered, because you know, when I drive
in every morning every morning, the way I come to work,
I drive by the murder scene every morning.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
It's so bizarre.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
And then I found out through a friend of mine
that he went there for dinner on on over the
weekend and he drove by there it start, and it
was packed, like it's turning into a local tourist attraction
other than me, who's had a murder on their street?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Jail? Good morning, Yes, sir, how are you hi? Was
there a murder on your street?

Speaker 4 (00:55):
Absolutely?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
What are the details?

Speaker 4 (00:59):
A couple of year years ago, I was putting out
the trash on a Thursday morning and I heard the
pop and you know, I just shrugged. I was like
another day in Paradise. I didn't look up. I didn't
do nothing except continue to put out the trash and
check my mail and then went back inside. And then
suddenly cops were everywhere, just swarming my parking lot and

(01:22):
the dogs, and they came rushing in, and I was like,
what did I do? And it turned out the house
right across from our street the man had got shot
in the chest point blank by a teenager and they
tooted his forty dollars in car and drove away.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Wow. Okay, so there's a murder on your street and
you're literally right there in the ash. I'm so scary.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
And you know, it kind of disturbed like the area
because I work at a car lot, so they were wondering,
what's he trying to steal that car? Could that if
been me? But I think from like local room, it
turned out to be more personal. But it was pretty severe.
They had us on lockdown till they called them. And
they were teenagers, just kids.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Well you've seen some stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
If you hear a bunch of gunshots and you're like,
I think I'll still get the mail.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Yeah, it's not the first murder I've been near.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Oh my gosh, there.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Was another one at my other job. There was a
bar across the street from that grocery store and just
heard tons of pops and I told the manager, I said,
I think that's gunfire. He said, no, I think it's
just fireworks. And no, it turned out to be gunfire.
And one of our cashier's uncles was actually the guy
who got murdered across the street.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Wow, Jill, okay, Well, thanks for sharing those stories with
us here. You won't, Sierra. Was there a murder on
your street?

Speaker 6 (02:47):
There was, Well, it was actually the next street and
wasn't actually a murder on the street. But I lived
on the next street from the Baseline killer WHOA.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (03:02):
Yeah, So I remember back I was probably about in
the seventh grade and all of this was going on.
There was like murders all over and I remember one
day playing outside with my friend and we were like, oh,
we should walk down to the grocery store that was
down the street, and She's like, no, we can't. The
Baseline killers out there, and I'm like, what are the
chances that we would ever run into him? And then

(03:24):
like two weeks later found out he lived literally where
my house is, and then across the streets the house,
and then he was behind their alley.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
You're like, what are the chances that the Baseline killer
is going to come after us?

Speaker 1 (03:35):
We live on baseline.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
Online nowhere near baseline.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
He's like, I guess I can only kill on baseline now.

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (03:45):
No, No, he actually lived like in like seeing it,
like central Phoenix, like off twenty Street and Thomas area,
and like probably a week or two before he was caught,
he actually attacked a woman at a carwash that was
right there, and he jumped into my friend's backyard and

(04:05):
then over his fence to get away in the alley.
And it makes sense because their alleys like connect.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Hey, wasn't the Baseline killer he was shooting people? Was he?
He was shooting people from the freeway?

Speaker 5 (04:17):
No?

Speaker 6 (04:17):
No, no, no, he was like physically murdering people. Like
I think he did like murder two women at like
a food truck or something at some time. I think
maybe stabbing them. I don't think he was shooting.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
People because I remember the Baseline killer, but I thought
it was what was the guy who shoot people freeway car?

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I remember that he was on the two oh two.
I think that guy that you're talking about, I think
I was in high school.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Was the something sniper. His brother was a stand up
comedian and working with him, I can't think of his name,
though working with him he was stand up.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
They both were. They were co collaborators.

Speaker 6 (04:50):
I think the shootings were in the same area though too.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
They were called the serial shooters.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
That the baseline killer was active at the same time
as two other Phoenix serial killers, jointly known as the
serial shooters.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Wow, okay, so I was having the same time, So
that's why I got him confused. Okay, Well, Sierra, thanks
for calling in.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
Yeah, thanks, have a good one.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
What do you guys remember when I had to call
in for work one day because the guy got murdered
on my car my old apartment.

Speaker 7 (05:16):
And then I tried to get on the news and
when they interviewed me, they were like, so what happened.
I was like, well, I was trying to get into
my job at one O four seven Kiss f M,
John Jay and Ridge and anyway, I like tuned into
the news.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
They didn't use it.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Just I'm not powerful enough.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
I don't have enough clout brother, Sephanie, Hi, was there
a murder on your street?

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yes, what's the story?

Speaker 5 (05:40):
Oh? So it was super crazy. So yeah, I turned
out that I knew the backstory of the family too.
So I ended up working at the gym with this
guy's son, and all the neighbors was going crazy saying
that like there was a banging down the street, like
the neighbors called the police. I was banging and like
doors slamming, screaming like things when like the house would
be like torn apart. And so then like a ton

(06:01):
of nine and one calls came in and so then
just down the street and so then like was locked
off for weeks, and then no one heard anything about
the guy was murdered, and it turned out nothing happened
for years. Turned out with a huge drug debt that
this guy owed like tons of money, and it was
like one of the most insane murders in Milwaukee, and
it was just super crazy, and all the day was
talking about forever, and yeah, it was super crazy.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
It didn't get salt like three or four or three or.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
Four years, but yeah, it was just a super crazy thing.
It was like this did loudness and like the people
talking about like here, like which being thrown, like chairs banging.
It was just super insane.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Like what you had seen in the movies when it
comes to a drug debt.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
There's something about, Yeah, the gunfire murders that don't scare
me as much as the guy coming to your house
and cutting your neck up.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
In the bathroom.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
Hearing and like screaming, slamming like crazy, little tiny like
little tiny suburbs, how like you know old people live
here here.

a murder on your street?

Speaker 4 (07:06):
It was actually a few blocks away.

Speaker 8 (07:09):
But this guy he lured a woman from a hotel
where they were meeting at to his home where he
lived with his mom, and he was confused over some
supposed like drug money that was missing, and so he
tried to lose her to lure a drug dealer and
rob that dealer. And then he just decided to kill

(07:30):
the woman after an accidental head injury and just remembered
her and put her in some suitcases in his car.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
And yeah, that's terrible, That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I would hate to have to drive by that house
every morning on the way to work.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Oh my god yeah, super creepy and his he told
his friend about the murder and then his friend, of.

Speaker 8 (07:51):
Course called the police and that's when it all blew up.
