something you all post on your Facebook page about the girl did you feel need to address well because the the extensive unfortunate um uh just misinformation that's going on out there uh by a number of people with this false narrative uh which is just nonsense and so you know when we put out those media packets is that you all were provided with all of the video but unfortunately some media Outlets only played one portion of one video of one Deputy who happened to be on a perimeter and it's very misleading in some media outlets in their captions in their narratives said that this calls into question and people are calling into question where the deputies went in the pond and that's just wrong because that was one Deputy who was on a perimeter who we never said was a deputy that went in the water and there was probably well over 15 deputies out there and people are saying and then you've got some really irresponsible people who are writing articles and putting them all over social media and Facebook's blowing up with it saying that uh II and that we are not telling the truth about the deputies that went in and the packet that we have has information in it in the uh in reports that were written by the deputies who took their gun belts off took their clothes off and went in the water those deputies aren't lying and there were in the investigative reports that you all got if anybody take a chance to read them they'd see that they're there and then you got video on there that shows those same deputies walking around without their gun belts on without their clothes on and deputies don't just take their clothes off for uh you know any reason in the middle of the night at 4:00 in the morning took their clothes off because they went in the water trying to rescue those girls so what's being uh ProMag out there is a false narrative and a flat out lie and we put that out there because there was so much of it being said to take that snipp it and show there is video If people care to look for it and watch it that uh supports what we said I don't think we need the video uh you know if we've come to a point in this world where if itless it's on video it didn't happen then that's sad uh but to the extent that the video confirms what we said that's why we put it out there now that video I read some of the comments people were saying with they were kind of walking by all relax they didn't they like they in the water I don't care what those people say that's a bunch of nonsense and they need to stop it because it's a bunch of junk those deputies went in that water tried to save those girls and at their own paril but when they go into that water and it's all sludge and they're up to their knees and they get tangled in Weeds and everything else um they don't need to die over it and they made a decision one of the deputies that went in is on our dive team he's trained in in that and he made a decision it's too dangerous for me to go out there so I don't really care what they say I really don't you know they can make these bald wild allegations all day long fact is three girls 14 and 15 4:00 in the morning in a stolen car running from the police and the three of them combined had seven prior arrests for stealing cars in the last year that's the problem we need to focus on this isn't a problem with the Sheriff's Office this isn't a problem with the police this is a problem with those kids engaged in criminal conduct running from the police the police tried to go in the water and save their life and they couldn't do it and everybody who is uh uh saying these guys didn't do their jobs or were providing false information needs to stop that irresponsible rhetoric because it's nonsense one Qui questioning on to that I know you all take pictures um just for evidence purposes is there anything showing deputies with maybe money clothing OB like you said no we why would we do that why would we do that there not evidence of anything why would we do that I believe that um what we've seen on Facebook just from reading some of the comments um you see people saying well like she mentioned it's their their clothing is still clean maybe they thought about going in but didn't is there anything that that can prove without a doubt you know these deputies at least one went in that water did you read their report I have not seen it yet read their report the depuy said they went in the water they got tangled in the weeds it was muddy they sunk down and they felt it was too dangerous to proceed read their report read the dive team logs that show there's zero visibility what the conditions were in the water it's all there if someone like the attorney challenge that's that's the last right I'm done with it there's nothing they can challenge all they want and you know they're trying to in the media they don't have any any cause of action against us they don't have a viable claim against us they don't have anything other than this really irresponsible rhetoric and a false narrative that they decide to keep going why don't we worry about why these girls were doing what they were doing and try and prevent any other kids from going down that path let's focus on fixing the problem we have in penis County with 2,800 stolen cars in a year and 1,500 of them coming out of the city of St Petersburg and all these kids Last Friday Night Last Friday Night the auto theft task force in St Petersburg middle of the night 1:00 in the morning five kids 13 314 year olds and a 15-year-old they're in a stolen car they run from the police same story they wreck they get out they run K9 chases them down those five kids one of those girls 14 years old she got out of a DJJ residential program Friday afternoon on a weekend pass Friday night she's out stealing cars in between those five kids 13 three 14 year olds and a 15year old they had 63 prior arrests in the last 18 months that's what we need to be talking about and people need to stop saying that these deputies didn't do their job these deputies did job that's a that's a problem same night up in Clearwater the same night four kids in the city of clwater stolen car 14 and 15 years old between them 25 prior arrests Saturday night into Sunday morning this week St Petersburg 15 years old in the last year he's been arrested 15 times five of them for auto theft that's the problem so what's being a lot of things are being being done to combat it the auto theft task force and we're putting together an initiative to go out and deal with these kids the highest recidivist and we had meetings on it this week and there's a lot of action being done by law enforcement and as we put it together we'll announce it at the right time but we are working on it and we're moving forward
