We are in >> Okay, yes. Yeah, we went to high school together. Yes, we did. Yes. Yes, we did, okay? So, we're here because of an incident went on. Okay? So, you want to tell us what happened? They want They didn't want to take me to Rosecrans. Okay. Which is fine. If you know that or not, that's up to you. I have no problem going to Rosecrans, but they're forcing forcing me to go to Rosecrans. Well, technically Here, let's let's focus on the story you want to tell me. >> it's Wednesday and they're like meeting which I don't know, but they didn't call me specifically. >> Who's they? Is it Rosecrans? >> Rosecrans, my daughter. >> That Oh, okay. Just one second. My daughter, I asked my daughter if she would check at Rosecrans what his current status is. Okay. She spent an hour on the phone with Rosecrans. We've been trying for multiple days and got him this morning they gave us the go-ahead to come in and that we'd both be at an appointment they set up at 1:00 today. Okay, 1:00 today, yes. 1:00 Hold on, hold on. Just one second. Two, uh because Mary had taken him to Walgreen and at various places over the last couple days to get clothes for this. Okay, the Wal Walgreen's is on Walmart and get shirt and pants and all that. Mhm. got upset. Um he grabbed my dad by the neck and was pushing my dad and I said, "That's it, Jason." Normally he would not touch me. He would He just is being a female. He's only his sister. Um but he did grab me by the neck. He also made threats that he was going to kill us. There are no weapons. I think it was an idle threat, but having I'm a survivor of domestic violence, so I'm not going to put up with any man touching me, let alone my parents. Um so that's why you were called today. And he's inside. And the neck, is that from him him grabbing you? Okay. Did he just grab you by with one hand, two hands? One and the other hand he was pushing me. Okay. Up against the wall. Just turn your head a little bit. Okay. Yeah. Anyway, so we I came home thinking that, okay, I'm going to get in the car and take him to Rosecrans. And instead I get this bad behavior, we'll call it. And frankly he we put his hands around my neck and he put his hands around Mary's neck and squeezed pretty hard and pushed my wife a little bit and And pinched my fingers and that kind of thing. And all I wanted to do is take him to Rosecrans to get what he really needs is some help for alcohol addiction. Okay? >> Mhm. And I said, "You're either going to I said to him about six times, 'Either you get in the car to go to Rosecrans because we had spent days trying to get this done and finally they said, 'Let's go 1:00 today.' And that's when he he got a little crazy And and then and make a long story short, um that's when you were called. Okay. Um and that's giving you an abbreviation of it, okay? Okay. I I asked all of you, how do you come in this house without a warrant? We don't need to. It's domestic disturbance. So, how much have you been drinking today? I Yeah. One beer. You think he doesn't tell you that there are these big big IPAs? Oh, whatever. It doesn't matter. Yes, it does. >> [clears throat] >> It's 9% alcohol, 20 oz cans and he probably drank all night. And when I was when I came in to get ready to go to Rockford, I uh he was drinking a can at that point in time. That's beside the point. The point is that you think all of a sudden after a 2 and 1/2 days which is pretty much about that. That all of a sudden Rosecrans at middle of the day they're going to call you, "Oh, well, you where are you going to come here?" They did. It doesn't work that way.
