of their cases. and many say there is one factor that ties cincinnati crime together -- guns. >> the gun violence is out of control. you can be here one day and be gone the next. >> everybody i know has a gun. it is like baseball courts. you trade them, sell them. collect them. >> i see it all over the news, i mean, how bad it is with the guns and everything. it's dangerous out there. >> for deandre kelley the issue of gun violence couldn't be more personal. >> two of my kids, my oldest and my youngest are gone, by gun violence. and i'm telling everybody now. if you got a gun, you young, put them down. because you don't want to be like me stuck in here. i went from being a family man to the worst man everybody think
2:03 am
of. accidents happen. but this is one i won't be able to swallow because it's my daughter. >> kelley, who lost his son 14 months earlier, recently lost his daughter to a bullet from his own gun. the case made national headlines. >> i shot up in the air and the bullet came down and accidentally hit my daughter. >> he pled no contest to charges of reckless homicide and illegally carrying a firearm. at the time of the shooting kelley and his long time girlfriend were raising five
2:04 am
children together. according to prosecutors on the night she was killed there was a slumber party at the house. kelley had been out drinking with friends and returned home around 2:00 a.m. >> cristy said i was too drunk that to get away from her. you know, she don't like me when i'm drunk. and i just turned around and shot in the air. being stupid to me. not knowing that the bullet was going to ricochet and hit my daughter through a open window. prosecutors say she was in an upstairs bedroom where she had gone to get away from her parent's argument when a bullet struck her in the chest. kelley says he left the scene unaware that his daughter had been hit. she was later pronounced dead at the hospital. >> i didn't know nothing until they told me what happened the next day. when it registered, i was thinking seriously? take the gun and do it yourself. i'll go crazy, for real. crying. wishing i could help.
2:05 am
but she already gone. >> was it normal for you to shoot guns when your kids were present? you knew there were kids in the house. >> right. >> i mean that is the thing. why shoot a gun. >> you got people in the projects want to see how a gun sound want to show off. and basically what's what i was doing. we call it killing clouds. i wasn't thinking. i wasn't in my right mind. i was just showing off and bang bang bang, shoot in the air. i don't know how many times i even shot in the air. and like christine said, the bullet's got to come down and go somewhere. >> kelley, who has a prior conviction for drug possession says he began carrying a gun for protection after his son was killed. even though as a felon he was court-ordered not to do so. >> i never pulled it out or nothing because christina don't like guns in her house.
2:06 am
so i would put the gun outside before i got in the house. where she'd never know that the gun was on me. >> when you talked to christina after the accident happened, was she mad at you? >> she was like, look what you did. they know how much i love my daughter. so it was like in the middle of cussing me out and crying, or cussing me out more and crying more. i understood her. but at the time i'm breaking down too. >> kelley says that despite the tragedy, his girlfriend has been a constant source of support. >> i talked to christina every day. i know she hurting. because that is our baby girl. and so i called her every day to keep her mind off of what we going through. worst part of my day is when i'm on the phone and she start crying. you know, i ain't been able to
2:07 am
mourn, period. because i ain't even been out. i wasn't allowed to go to her funeral. all i got is pictures, that i look at every night. and i stare at this one. i don't go no farther than that one. she happy, smiling with her daddy. bring tears to my eyes. for me to shoot in the air and accidentally hit my daughter, that is the worst feeling in the world. it hurt inside because it is my hands that her blood on. every day i wake up in here, it's like whew, where my baby at? pain will never go away. how can it? every day i wake up in here i know what i'm here for. i know what i lost. so, yeah, it will never go away. never.

i came here to see the dodgers play the final three games of the series. and i only made it through the 7th inning of the first game before i was recognized. instead of letting me leave i was arrested and charged with trespassing and obstructing. >> these current charges to which sexton has pled not guilty stem from having been given a lifetime ban from the reds ballpark six years earlier for his involvement in a fight in the stands during the game. >> i'm in the there bottom of the 7th one out. and he gets in a tough jam and i take my shirt off and shout. and face it to the crowds. people are throwing stuff at me, peanut, ice cubes. i had a little bit to drink. and this is so stupid. so i gave everybody the middle finger. shouldn't have done that. so this guy comes you have to me and telling me to stop.
2:13 am
i physically removed him from me. he fell to the ground. and next thing i'm body slamming him to the ground. there's bodies all over me. i'm if a choke-hold. >> the brawl was so large the game had to be delayed. >> i'm 40 years old and you would think it diminishes as you get older but i've gotten more of a dodger fan as i get older instead of the other way around. >> some ask me,is joe beimel your favorite player -- >> that dedication earned him a following online. >> these are the joe beimel pants i got. >> i guess i originally became well-known to the diehard fans. i got the camera out and started talking. and one person picked up on it and another person and next thing you know everybody knew who joe from west virginia was. >> and pictures of him sleep with his favorite dodgers player
2:14 am
to working out and attending a game with hostile fans. >> yeah i'm kind of weird. i'm kind of odd. i get that. people don't make these videos that i make about the dodgers. that's out there. but, you know, there is nothing criminal about being weird or odd or being a little bit different. >> but according to authorities, one of sexton's post to his social media site on the day he was arrested crossed the line. in the message, sexton said he was about to disguise himself as a reds fan and trespass at the ballpark. but his statement that he would be shattering lives prompted someone to call the authorities. >> anyone with a ton of sense can see that it was screaming with sarcasm. trespassing does not destroy people's lives. and i was just really laying the
2:15 am
sarcasm on super thick. >> prosecutors were not mused. and two days after sexton's arrest, his misdemeanor charges of trespassing and obstruction were dropped and replaced with a felony charge of burglary. >> burglary, technically is entering a structure with the intent to commit a crime. now apparently he had made veiled threats online before going to the ballpark about the shattering lives and other comments. this day and age, you go to a ballpark and you say you are going to hurt a bunch of people you are going to be charged for the crime. and that is what they decided to charge him with. >> i think they are doing this to me basically because they don't like me. because i can come across as the bit of a prick i guess at times. even the post i made was pricky, smart-ass kind of thing to co-. just poking fun at the system. >> this isn't the first time sexton has been upset with the system. five years earlier he was arrested for a domestic battery incident with his kids that he
2:16 am
says was exaggerated. >> at the football practice i got a little upset. and i guess i had one kid on the other side of the fence and me there. and i pushed him down on football practice. and one child one of my sons was crying there on the field and when i picked him up i did it by the ankle and took a few steps. next thing i know i'm all over the media and it's just totally blown out of proportion. you would have thought they nearly would have killed my kids at a football practice the way they blew this up. >> he pled no contest to domestic battery. he was sentenced to 30 days in jail. he says resentment over the incident later led him to make false 911 calls and videotape the responding officers. >> i was mocking how the press and police portrayed the incident with my kids at the football practice. i was saying oh my god i think i nearly killed one of my kids. i troou him over a fence.
2:17 am
oh, my god, they're dying. they're dead. something like that. stupid. i shouldn't have done it. i did it. >> he pled guilty to making false calls to 911 and was given probation. >> what would possess me to call the police when there is nothing there. it's just me being a smart-ass basically. you portrayed me as this person i'm not. you made claims that weren't true. so i'll pretend they are true. do something about it. >> you know it's against the law. >> yeah it's against the law. but i guess in my mind i look at it as not being that serious. >> but facing the possibility of three years in prison for felony burglary has sexton considering a change in behavior. >> hopefully maybe i can just be able to avoid jail time and do what i need to do. and get on the straight and narrow and not be goofy anymore. stay away from the alcohol. don't do stupid stuff no more. when somebody says don't do
2:18 am
something, don't do it. start having respect for authority i guess. i just have to suck it up and do it. >> coming up, troy sexton decides he needs a new lawyer. >> i understand that and i'm with you -- >> i know it's -- it's frustrating. >> deandre kelley is sentenced. >> after i heard that, i was like wow. just staring out the window. >> and his girlfriend ends up in the jail. but it is not for a visit. >> i'm facing 30 days. and i think i'm going to be doing 30 days because i don't feel like i need to apologize. baked pears, making him feel warm. then pie crust, as he wonders if it's too soon to ask what's for dessert. now vanilla, reminding him of pep talks with mom and slightly inappropriate advice from dad. new air wick life scents in mom's baking, the first constantly changing fragrance that acts like real life and says 'welcome home, kev-y bear.' this is him, secretly loving the name kev-y bear.

at the hamilton county justice center in cincinnati, deandre kelley has just learned fate after pleading no contest in the shooting death of his 11-year-old daughter. while he hoped for leniency, the judge decided to give him the maximum sentence of six years. >> when i came back to the cell after i heard that, i was like
2:22 am
wow. just staring out the window thinking, like, man, this ain't good. and i was so emotional i didn't really want to talk to nobody. i really just wanted to close my door and stay in here by myself. you ain't supposed to cry in jail. you don't be crying in front of no other men. >> kelley wasn't the only one overcome with emotion after the sentencing. his girlfriend and daughter's mother christine was in the courtroom and made her displeasure known. >> i allowed the family to speak on his behalf, but they were very disruptive during that process. on the way out i told them specifically that if you scream one more time, if you shout one more time i'm going to find you in contempt. and as they were going out the door got into the hallway they were screaming at the top of their lungs.
2:23 am
>> christina, what is your birth date? >> they were taken straight from the courtroom and booked into the jail and charged with contempt of court for shouting that kelley's sentence was excessive and that there had been no justice. >> and we feel like there was no justice. they maxed him out on both charges. i thought he'd at least got four years. i'd have been happy with four. but six i think is extremely too much. for his own baby. he's sentenced the rest of his life anyway. no amount of time is going to give him the grief he's t already got? >> where is the justice? if you are going to do something, do it right. and i told her that the judges will be judged first. >> i'm just thinking, while i was walking out like, i hope they just shut up. because they can get charged. and what do you know? there she go. she in jail, i'm in jail.
2:24 am
that ain't no good thing. >> were you angry at deandre when this happened? >> i was very angry when it first happened. it took me a while. but i know deep down in my heart he did not mean to do it. and i was outside. he did not mean to kill our baby. it was a total accident. >> when somebody shoots a gun on purpose -- he did not accidentally shoot the weapon. he deliberately shot that gun into what they claim is the air. but when you are in a residential neighborhood, that bullet could very likely end up in a house, as it did here, and killed his own daughter. did he intend to? no. but it was not an accidental shooting. it was a deliberate shooting. not only was he drunk but he was under court order not to owner possess a gun.
2:25 am
>> though she believes he didn't mean to kill her daughter, she wasn't comfortable with him owning a gun. >> that night occurred. it was an argument due to he brought a gun into my house. and i made him leave. >> how do you feel about that? >> i don't like guns. i don't think anybody should be having one. he's got another son that was killed. so he's lost his oldest and his youngest. so you cannot imagine how he's feeling. >> i hate guns now. i would never touch a gun again. for the rest of my life. because to me that life is over. >> that night i didn't get to tell her i love her. so now i tell my other kids every day. and i love them. because you never know when
2:26 am
somebody is going to be tooken from you. >> they could each face up to 30 days in jail for the contempt charge, judge allen has given them the opportunity to apologize in court the following day in which case they could be released for time served. >> i'm facing 30 days. and i think i'm going to be doing 30 days because i don't feel like i need to apologize. >> coming up. for misbehavior in the presence of the court -- >> christina and daniele face the judge. >> i would like to give you the opportunity to speak and tell me why you should not be punished further than you have been. >> and -- >> i'm going to be a mentor and teach these people to stay away from negative actions. >> a former pro football player plays the role of mentor. >> this is all about change. if i give you the tools to drive the car or give you the keys, it
