“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

Unconscious, exposed in every way. People are incredibly vulnerable when they go under in order to undergo surgery. They can’t argue, push back, or move out of the way once they’re on the operating table and under the knife.

Thinking of that helplessness breaks Beverly Bryan’s heart. Her tall, strong, and strapping husband was a force to be reckoned with when he was standing on his own two feet.

Not that Bill Bryan normally needed to be tough. The retired boilermaker’s family says he was an easy-going, Alabama football fan who loved his family and classic cars.

But when he had trouble with his spleen while on vacation in Florida, the Alabama man pushed back on the doctor’s recommendation to undergo surgery in the Sunshine State.

He said “No,” not just once, but many times.

Bill finally relented when the surgeon told him he could bleed out if he waited. Tragically, he bled out anyway. According to Bill’s medical records, he died when the surgeon mistakenly removed his liver instead of his spleen.

Bill could face a lot of challenges his wife said, but not one he never saw coming.

Rock throwing Joseph Koenig and gang punished for high-speed murder of Alexa Bartell 36:11

36:11

Send us a text Alexa Bartell was simply driving home from work late one Wednesday night. Something almost everybody does every day. She was especially happy that evening on April 19, 2023. The 20-year-old woman loved her family, she loved her job at a flooring company where she worked with her mom, and she loved her new girlfriend who she was going to see that night. Life was going great – until three teenagers in another car hurled a heavy rock at her windshield that hit with the force of a cannon. We’ve all had a piece of gravel ding our windshield, but a 9-pound landscaping rock, thrown at 104 mph into oncoming traffic hit Alexa with enough force to cause her skull to explode. All because these young men were bored and wanted to entertain themselves. They were so excited when her car ran off the road they drove back and took a selfie with the vehicle, never once checking on the woman inside they had killed. Afterall, this was the latest car in a series of rock throwing incidents, as many as 19, they are suspected to have caused and hurt several other people. While everyone agreed the teens were to blame, there were different stories about who threw the rock that killed Alexa, until two of the young men, Zachary Kwak and Nicholas “Mitch” Karol-Chik, agreed in a plea deal that it was Joseph Koenig. The left-handed driver had shot-put the rock straight at Alexa’s windshield as they drove past, killing her instantly. Find out what the jury thought about these adrenaline junkies in the latest episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential podcast, “Rock throwing Joseph Koenig and gang punished for high-speed murder of Alexa Bartell.” Support the show…

Chuck Erickson’s dream becomes Ryan Ferguson’s nightmare! 32:03

Send us a text An All-American young man was enjoying the best time of his life in college when he was arrested for the murder of Kent Heitholt, a popular sports editor in their hometown of Columbia, Missouri. The tall and strapping Heitholt was found beaten and strangled in the newspaper parking lot after getting off late from work on Halloween night 2001. The case went cold quickly, and police had no leads until Charles ‘Chuck’ Erickson said he had a dream after reading an article revisiting the unsolved murder. Chuck said he dreamed that he and his friend Ryan Ferguson may have killed the reporter after partying that night in the same area where Heitholt was killed. Chuck said he was so high on drugs the night of the murder, including cocaine, Adderall, and alcohol, he wasn’t sure they killed Heithold, but in his drug-addled mind he speculated that he and Ferguson could have been the two shadowy figures witnesses saw at the scene. The hazy, disjointed, and incomplete account didn’t stop Chuck from confessing or dragging Ryan into the investigation. And it didn’t stop police and the prosecution from building a case on a string of mistakes, lies, and manipulation that ended up sending both young men to prison. Chuck Erickson cut a deal for 25 years in prison and he testified that Ryan was the main killer, who was sentenced to 40 years in prison. But Ryan Ferguson and his dad never gave up hope that he would be freed and eventually his father’s relentless pursuit of the truth paid off and his son was exonerated.

Send us a text Is your mouth a murder weapon? Can a bully cry self-defense? And what's up with Kanye West and Nitrous Oxide? We're talking about three cases in this episode of Gulf Coast Confidential. The first is Penelope McGee. If someone is arguing with you, is it your responsibility to make sure they don't die? Socialite Penelope McGee was arguing with her ex-husband, Andrew Savitz, when he died of a heart attack. The prosecution claimed she was the aggressor who knew his heart was weak. She said she was defending herself from him. When a couple is having a heated argument, it's more common for people to end up in jail than the morgue. Weigh in on this he said/she said case... And, at a Tampa dog park, a former U.S. Marine and martial arts expert wanted his bark to be as big as his bite, but he needed a gun to do it. Gerald Radford was charged with second degree murder with an enhancement for hate crime for shooting and killing Walt Lay, a gay man. The two often ran into each other because they regularly brought their pets to the same Tampa dog park. Witnesses say Radford often picked on Walt about being gay and one day Radford brought a gun to what should have been a fist fight and the unarmed Walt was killed. In this Florida man story, Radford claimed he shot in self-defense and argued he was standing his ground when he killed him. More on his trial! And, it's nothing new for celebrity Kanye West to make headlines, but lately it has taken a strange turn that is no laughing matter. Kanye's ex chief of staff says the musician's dentist fed his addiction for Nitrous Oxide and even tried to get the star to support his own brand of Whippets, the slang term for using the gas for non-medical use. Kanye's staff said he had been acting "weird," but how would one know?

Send us a text Dr. David Diffine made himself famous on Instagram as “Naked Dr. Dave.” Now many more agencies are on to him since he sauntered naked through his Arkansas doctor’s office. He did don a ball cap, but that’s all he had on when he walked into the reception area and exposed himself to several women who worked with him, including one who was also a patient. Office surveillance video of Dr. Diffine casually strolling through his office and performing a sex act in front of and onto staff was sent to the Arkansas Board of Medicine, last summer, along with a complaint that he used pay raises and his position as a doctor to groom patients and employees into sexual acts. Perhaps new signs are being printed right now that say no shirt, no shoes, no PANTS, no service. Diffine denies the accusations and says he is a Naturist, but the Arkansas Board of Medicine issued an emergency suspension of his license, and he is facing civil litigation.

Send us a text Lawd hammercy, if you like drama, trauma, and incredulous cases, don’t look any further than Florida! From one end of the Gulf Coast to another, we’re swimming in sass, sorrow, and the worst kind of decision making. In Wauchula, Tracy Nix learned she would be spending years in prison for forgetting her 9-month-old granddaughter and leaving her to die in a hot car. Tracy took the stand for the first time in her emotional sentencing hearing, but her daughter was perhaps the most heartbreaking, demanding justice from her own mother for the deaths of two of her children, less than a year apart. Rest in Peace Ezra and Uriel. Over in Punta Gordon, a young fisherman was minding his own business on his boat under a bridge, when Brock Horner, the self-proclaimed “best charter captain you will ever meet in your ‘m-f’ing’ life,” decided to showboat for his buddies and pick a fight with 22-year-old Gage Towles who was by himself. Towles recorded Horner’s angry, curse-filled tirade as Horner falsely accused him of a near collision and boarded the young man’s boat, grabbing his shirt and demanding an apology. Now, Horner is the person apologizing as his career and character are getting picked apart on social media. Even though every picture on Towles’ social media is a picture of him holding a fish, he is reportedly taking a break from his favorite pastime. Throughout the entire encounter, the level-headed Towles proves to be the most mature and maybe we could all learn a little something from him that cooler heads prevail. If the excessive use of “bro” or words that begin with “F” or “M F” offend, you listen with care. The lives of the families in both of these cases will never be the same. Just us for an update on them in the latest episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential podcast! Everybody’s got an opinion and we’d love to hear yours! Leave us a question or a comment!

Send us a text Tracy Nix was enjoying her retirement years…until two of her young grandchildren died on her watch. Up until the back-to-the-back tragedies she had no time clock, no boss, no worries and the freedom to pursue her hobbies and passions, like playing the piano. In fact, she was practicing piano for several hours when she forgot that her 7-month-old granddaughter was strapped into a car seat in the back of her 2019 red Lexus on a 90-degree day in Florida. Sadly, Baby Uriel died and horrifically this was the first time that a child under 18 months died in her care. Less than a year earlier, 16-month-old Ezra, Uriel’s brother, drowned in a duck pond while he was staying with his Tracy and his granddad. A time of your life that should normally be joyful, delightful, and fun with family and friends has turned into the very worst years of Tracy and her entire family’s lives and they’ll never be the same. No charges were pressed against Tracy for Ezra’s death, but she was charged with aggravated manslaughter for Uriel’s death. Was she forgetful, medicated, or just plain evil?

It’s Always the Susan Smith Show: Probation denied for Killer Mom who Drowned Sons 36:36

Send us a text Susan Smith has been called a lot of names: evil, egocentric, seductress, and murderer. One name she doesn’t deserve is mother. In 1994, the then 23-year-old young woman claimed a man carjacked her and took off with her children who were in the backseat. A community-wide search in Union, South Carolina went nationwide as the shocking and tragic story of the missing 3-year-old and 14-month-old boys made headlines when Susan and her devastated husband and father of the children made tearful pleas for their return. In a shocking twist, police discovered it was no stranger who was responsible for the boys’ disappearance, but their own mother. She had let the car roll into a lake with her children inside screaming for help. She later confessed saying she thought she was going to kill herself, too, but changed her mind at the last minute and jumped out of the vehicle, leaving her children to drown alone. She thought they were the only things standing in the way between her and her paramour who was a single, wealthy young man she had been secretly seeing and he told her in no uncertain terms he didn’t want kids. Susan almost faced the death penalty but narrowly managed to avoid it. Now, thirty years later she thinks she deserves to be out of prison and have the opportunity to start another family because she says she’s a Christian and God has forgiven her by his grace and mercy. Where was this grace and mercy when her babies were strapped in their carseats, calling for their momma, as the water rose in their sinking car? They were later found upside down. The hand of one child was pressed against the window. Her life behind bars has not exactly been exemplary with accusations of seducing guards, blatantly disregarding the rules, and insisting she’s ready to be released back into society, which her ex-husband has a huge problem with, in part because she has never shown any true remorse.

Send us a text Jimmie “Jay” Lee loved to shine. The 20-year-old Ole Miss Student was known for his love of flamboyant clothes, his Pomeranian ‘Lexie,’ and helping others. In fact, the day his disappearance was discovered the soon-to-be social worker had missed attending a baby-formula drive and his friends and family knew something was wrong. Jay Lee was last seen leaving his university-affiliated apartment early on the morning of Friday, July 8, 2022, wearing his gray slippers, silver robe and a gold bonnet. Police discovered he was going to meet Timothy Herrington Jr., an Ole Miss graduate from a politically and religiously well-connected family who owned his own moving company. The strait-laced entrepreneur had been secretly pursuing the energetic social butterfly, but he was hiding the affair from his family. Police quickly focused on Herrington and said evidence showed he arranged for the last-minute bootie call when Jay Lee left that morning, but thought he was keeping the hook-up on the down low. Instead, police say his internet search history clued them into to his true intentions. He searched for the phrase, “How long does it take strangle someone, Gabby Petito?” It was a true-crime case of one lover killing another that fascinated Herrington and led police to find more evidence that he was involved in Jay’s death. Although Jay’s body was not found for over two years, he was declared dead. Prosecutors charged and tried Herrington for his murder, but it ended in a mistrial after one juror refused to convict, saying there was no body. Now his body has been found. It had not been at the time we recorded this episode, but at the beginning of February, hunters found Jay Lee’s skeletal remains at a well-known Carroll County dumping site. He was still wearing his favorite gold necklace that bore his name “JayLee.” It looks like there will be another trial for Tim Herrington who claims he is innocent.

Send us a text Killing a customer for shoplifting seems callous and cruel, but 61-year-old Taz Zarka said he was “not a monster” for stabbing 27-year-old Mark Garrity Jr. to death on April 6, 2023. The young man was in Taz’s family-owned, neighborhood supermarket located at the City Bus Stop in Raleigh, North Carolina when the store owner thought Mark was stealing a blue Gatorade and some ice cream. Shoplifting was a constant problem for the businessman, he had them at least twice a day, and Garrity, who struggled with addiction, had put the drink in his bag, but he had not left the store with the items and was approaching the cash register with the ice cream in hand when Taz stabbed him with his pocket knife several times. After the violent attack, it was business as usual for Taz who immediately began mopping the young man’s blood off the floor. Mark managed to crawl outside where he bled to death on the sidewalk while bystanders took video. Police charged Taz Zarka with second-degree murder for the crime that was caught on the store’s camera. Was a drink with monopotassium phosphate, a bit of modified food starch, glycerol, and a dash of blue food dye number one, all that Mark Garrity, Jr.’s life was worth?

Unnecessary Middle Men Force Patients to Pay More for Prescriptions 39:55

Send us a text It’s no secret that the Pharmacy Healthcare System is broken. Join Pam and me as we dive into the ugliness of one of the main reasons the Pharmacy Profession and Independent Pharmacies are being threatened, some pharmacists say. We invited Johnny Brooklere, Pharmacist/Owner of Brooklere Pharmacy 💊 in Birmingham, Alabama to share his expert opinion on one of the main culprits …PBM’s (Pharmacy Benefits Managers)‼️ As Brooklere points out, they have a very big fight 🥊 on their hands‼️ A fight for survival of Independent Pharmacies and for patients to have the right to choose their Pharmacy. For the past decade or so pharmacists have been dealing with pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) — they're accused of being unnecessary, greedy middlemen between pharmacies and health insurance companies as well as drug manufacturers. They have allegedly been helping themselves to rebates, formulary making, unscrupulous pricing practices, inflating generic prices exorbitantly, pocketing differentials, creating one hefty reimbursement for chain stores and a so-called "wimpy" and watered down version to Independent Pharmacies for the exact same medication 💊. PBM’s are owned by the Big Chains and independent pharmacists question how fair that is, when they say they welcome healthy competition. According to some experts, PBM’s are limiting your choice of Pharmacies, causing ridiculously high costs, delaying your medication 💊 due to prior authorizations, and making deals with brand name manufacturers so you can’t have access to generics.

According to the lawsuit filed by Beverly Bryan, Bill’s widow, what seems like a shocking, incredulous, and one-in-a million type of blunder that happened to her husband, was part of a larger pattern of mishaps, near misses, and mistakes that were either never reported or under reported. The lawsuit says it was Ascension Sacred Heart’s reporting system that created the culture which led to Bill Bryan’s tragic death, a culture that minimized and overlooked adverse events like wrong-site surgeries and repeated mistakes by doctors including an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. David Heekin. He worked for a hospital in Jacksonville, Florida, under the same owner and is facing 522 lawsuits for a range of surgical errors including some that resulted in amputation.

First responders who are first on the scene see it, too. Firefighters, paramedics, and police all witness the worst people can do to each other. It’s rewarding to help people who suffer, but it can take a terrible toll. They may not know those who died, but witnessing the aftermath can leave long-lasting trauma. Finding others who can relate and help them process what they’ve seen can be hard. Retired Santa Rosa Sheriff’s Deputy Patric Gibson was the first person who arrived at Sharon Aydelott’s house on Christmas Eve, 2013, after her ex-husband called 911 to report seeing her bloody body in the doorway of her Gulf Breeze home. The 48-year-old middle school science teacher and mother of two, was lying in a pool of blood, her face stabbed and beaten beyond recognition. Sharon’s family later confirmed her identity with her hands. Patric was the first person to witness what her then 17-year-old son Brandon Aydelott later confessed to doing. But there’s no time to process horror when you have a job to do. As Brandon’s latest case status check hearing approaches on Feb. 20 at 9:00 a.m., his first since he was transferred from Florida State Hospital to a step-down facility in Tallahassee, here’s a first-person account from a first responder who shares his experiences and thoughts on crime, trauma, and justice.
