00:00:00.000 Do you believe in publicly humiliating criminals to make sure that same behavior doesn't replicate?
00:00:07.460 Because, you know, just recently, I want to show this clip, Rob, with one of the judges in Florida that the governor called out.
00:00:14.860 And if you want to pull this one up, Rob, and, you know, Governor DeSanta comes out, calls this person out.
00:00:20.380 He's asking for the impeachment of this judge because this judge that we're talking about,
00:00:25.440 there was a situation where she released a child rapist while on bail he raped tortured and killed
00:00:32.220 a five-year-old girl this judge tiffany baker releases the individual here's what the governor
00:00:38.060 de santos had to say about it go for it rob i appreciate the legislature for for passing this
00:00:43.300 but i will just say to my friends in the florida house of representatives i don't think what you've
00:00:50.820 done is enough. You have the power and you have sufficient numbers in your chamber to impeach
00:00:58.340 this judge, Tiffany Baker. Until you start holding these judges accountable, they are going to
00:01:06.580 continue to find ways to benefit the criminal element. This was an outrage. This was such an
00:01:14.360 easy call to make sure that this guy was put behind bars, and this judge refused to do it,
00:01:20.560 knowing the risks, and the result has obviously been a tragedy. So Florida Constitution vests
00:01:27.660 the House of Representatives with the ability to bring an impeachment against a circuit judge
00:01:32.900 with two-thirds majority. You know, last time I checked, we've got way more than two-thirds
00:01:37.500 of Republicans. Honestly, I think some Democrats would vote to impeach, given what happened in
00:01:43.700 this case. There's a lot of judges like this in America. Oh, there really are. How do you deal
00:01:49.240 with these guys? When you see that, I don't know how she sleeps at night because this person had
00:01:55.320 been convicted. She had all the authority in the world to remand him into custody until 0.82
00:02:03.240 sentencing. And she didn't. She let him walk out on bond. And that child is dead. I'm a big fan
00:02:09.940 of the governor he's a friend of mine he has done remarkable work in this state we're a safer state
00:02:17.260 the people the people in this state are safe it is not only the free state of florida but it is
00:02:23.740 the safe state of florida and people are moving here because of the work by the governor and he
00:02:28.860 is spot on with her shame on her but she is an elected official if the house won't impeach her 1.00
00:02:36.080 The people of the county can remove her from office by running a person against her, a qualified lawyer against her. 1.00
00:02:47.260 So she should be at least opposed in her next election if the House doesn't impeach her.
00:02:54.480 Now, so say I'm from that county, and what's the county that she's from, Rob?
00:02:58.120 I believe it's Leon County.
00:02:59.140 Leon County Courthouse, Tallahassee.
00:03:00.560 OK, say if I'm from that county, have you ever in your 54 years that you've been you've been in, have you ever had a judge that was, you know, judges you typically don't know their left or right.
00:03:13.120 Supreme Court, we know when we look at them. And generally, if you know them closer, you'll kind of get an idea.
00:03:17.180 This is a liberal judge. It's a conservative judge. Have you ever had a liberal judge that would would go against you on certain criminals and were maybe a little bit more lenient with them?
00:03:27.320 And if yes, how did you handle them?
00:03:28.880 Well, if you look, that's why we have minimum mandatory sentencing in the state of Florida now,
00:03:33.680 because we couldn't get some judges to do their job.
00:03:37.500 They would let them out and let them out and let them out.
00:03:40.320 And I have been in law enforcement long enough.
00:03:43.080 I remember when the felons owned Florida.
00:03:46.440 And it stayed that way.
00:03:48.060 In the 70s and 80s, I would, as I rose in rank at the sheriff's office,
00:03:53.560 i would go lobby the legislature and say the felons on florida crimes up the felons on florida
00:03:59.820 crimes up you've got to do something nothing happened until it became an economic problem
00:04:05.460 and then over a period of about two years 17 tourists were murdered europe sent out a travel
00:04:13.240 warning about your that was about 87 88 89 europe sent out a travel warning that it wasn't safe to
00:04:22.280 come to florida on vacation wow the legislature immediately changed the law now they have 85
00:04:28.360 sentencing 10 20 life minimum mandatory sentencing and crime fell precipitously crime today in florida
00:04:38.200 is at over a 50 year low in my county crimes at a 54 year low it's safer in my county and in the
00:04:47.580 state of Florida than it's been in most people's adult life or entire life. And it's all because
00:04:54.520 we decided that we were going to care more about the law abiding taxpaying citizen and children
00:05:03.680 than we were about criminals. So criminals are held accountable and responsible. And if they
00:05:10.460 don't behave or they do something significantly bad, they're locked up as they should be.
00:05:16.640 Now, let me ask you, when you look at a judge like this, and you've dealt with a lot of them, because if you're saying 87, 88, 89, 17 people, Europe is like, hey, don't go to Florida crime.
00:05:25.960 Florida was known for a lot of the mobsters that would come and retire here.
00:05:28.860 They would come and do business here as well.
00:05:30.440 That's been known for many, many, many decades.
00:05:33.540 But when you talk to a judge like that, what is her argument why she releases a guy that raped and killed a five-year-old?
00:05:40.740 What's the argument for someone to say, at least they're coming from a place where,
00:05:45.400 do they have any kind of an argument that makes sense to you?
00:05:47.440 She has no rational argument because they've now received due process.
00:05:51.240 They've been now been found guilty by a jury of their peers.
00:05:55.780 And he was dangerous.
00:05:58.240 He was dangerous in the beginning.
00:06:00.400 She should have remanded him to custody.
00:06:02.840 That's what would have happened in our county, in Polk County.
00:06:06.220 That's what would have happened in the majority of counties across this state.
00:06:10.360 And if she would have remanded him to custody, that child would be alive today.
00:06:14.760 That's somebody's family right there.
00:06:16.120 And this is happening across the board in a lot of different places.
00:06:18.920 How do you process yourself?
00:06:20.900 You ever seen the movie The Judge with Robert DeVault and Robert Downey Jr.?
00:06:24.440 I didn't see that.
00:06:25.260 Okay, I think you'll like the movie.
00:06:26.360 It's a good movie.
00:06:27.060 It's great actors in the movie.
00:06:28.420 And the movie is about second and third chances where the judge, who is Robert DeVault,
00:06:34.540 the father of Robert Downey Jr., the character's name is Henry.
00:06:37.480 there's this kid that he wants to give him a second chance
00:06:40.000 because his son was a troublemaker,
00:06:41.640 and so he gives the wrong guy a second chance,
00:06:43.980 and he ends up coming out and killing an innocent girl,
00:06:48.240 and it's a very interesting story to this.
00:06:50.780 How do you view second chances?
00:06:53.600 What is your process when it comes down to a kid that something done?
00:06:57.000 What do you say?
00:06:57.420 Let's give this kid a second chance, zero chances to this guy.
00:07:01.420 This guy deserves a death penalty.
00:07:03.200 How do you process that?
00:07:04.320 Everybody knows that Florida's got a tough criminal justice system.
00:07:08.880 Our tough criminal justice system, out of every 100 people that come before the courts this year,
00:07:15.160 only four will go to prison.
00:07:17.260 And we're a tough criminal justice system.
00:07:20.100 I believe in forgiveness.
00:07:22.420 I believe in second chances.
00:07:24.940 We have veterans court.
00:07:26.600 We have mental health court.
00:07:28.320 We have diversion programs.
00:07:30.540 We have probation programs.
00:07:32.120 We have drug rehab programs.
00:07:34.320 We give people second chances and third chances and fourth chances, but when they show a proclivity
00:07:40.520 to be very violent, their chances are over. When they show that they're going to continue to violate
00:07:47.120 the rules, then they get to go to prison, and they go to prison for a small amount of time,
00:07:52.040 then they can bail more points up and go to prison for more time. So yes, a forgiving criminal justice
00:07:57.680 system exists in Florida and should exist, but there also has to be accountability in the criminal
00:08:03.820 justice system, and there is in Florida. And that's why our crime's down. But when you go to
00:08:09.360 California, the felons own California. When you go to New York, the felons own New York. When you go
00:08:16.920 to Washington, D.C., the felons own Washington, D.C., maybe in more ways than one. But the reality
00:08:24.580 is that people move to the line that's drawn and then they stop so as long as they can commit
00:08:34.020 crime they will and then if you're permissive like that then you you get the me too's well if
00:08:41.200 he can do it i can get away with it i can get away with it as well and that's what we're seeing in
00:08:45.900 california and new york the me too's the if if you've ever had a line that should have been drawn
00:08:52.560 in the sand when the illegal immigrants beat down the two New York police officers, NYPD did a great 0.67
00:09:00.260 job and I think arrested most, if not all, of the ones, the gang that beat them down. So you get 0.94
00:09:07.460 this. They're in a gang. They're here in this country illegally. They beat down two New York
00:09:13.240 City police officers. So they not only beat down a person, they not only beat down a police officer,
00:09:19.040 but they beat down our government. Then we take them to court, and the judge releases them without
00:09:25.660 having to post bail, and they're not even in this country illegally. Then there's another set of laws 0.50
00:09:31.700 that prohibits the state of New York from at least telling our ICE partners that, hey, we got them.
00:09:40.040 They're here illegally. They've committed horrible felonies against our police officers. They
00:09:45.260 couldn't even tell them now so they released them and who knows where they are now that's crazy
00:09:50.640 that is insanity and if you keep doing the thing that you've always done you'll always get what
