2:44 am
a man he went out there and he would scrap and not only know his name but anyway what happened when picked up a chunk of type of will bomb off the bomb range right so i took it back to slab stating. this guy supposed to be a twelve year military man experience to ignore him so he beat on the moment i am you're not supposed to believe that it's common sense a lot happened the bomb blew up here and the other guy that was going to hear god i think this guy passed away but he picked up the pieces fell created on my team about my big money and scrappy and all the money worth it if you are about fucking coal mining he stepped on some of your hand or money bought. the good took one of the dozen. straight out to the flat the way. he was in the backroom staff build a bomb. going off blew your mind kill you but who just like.
2:45 am
the book. moving on from the first run with the outlaw brothers we found various layers of local and federal law enforcement tasked with prosecuting scrappers and range runners. the gentlemen we call x. need to remain anonymous. like when a scrapper he's been tracking placed an i.e.d. or improvised explosive device at his workstation michael lexica has been fire chief of nylon california for forty. nine elation fifteen hundred has no police as first responder likes it bears not only the burden of saving and securing any military ordinance that finds its way into town but also thanklessly risks his own life treating anyone who's injured or killed in the chocolates. at
2:46 am
the imperial county sheriff's substation in el centro california a half hour's drive south of niland we met investigator deputy coroner charles lucas it's lucas' that fire chief mike calls when a scrapper range runner suffers a fatal injury or is in possession of military explosive. one of the very few lie military training areas where a jet can come in off of an aircraft carrier do some light fire train day or night fire rockets drop bombs. they like dropping multiple bombs in that area because. the canyons on both sides muffle the noise and the damage that it does in a town. in one case where they dropped twenty one thousand pound
2:47 am
bombs on the range. they had to face from the for every window and light bulb and prepare plaster in niland for you know a month. and is one of the poorest communities in california. it's in a neighborhood of eighty five percent below federal poverty level. unemployment sixty percent. every january income per family seven thousand dollars. most of these people a scratch they get some kind of subsistence something from the state or federal government of some type. of california government went from giving to check some of the one check and save and millions and millions of dollars i think it's wrong that
2:48 am
you give them one check expect them to make that last thirty days and nothing changes they're still spending they're spending twice as much on don't spend twice as much on beer at the end seven days they've got to find some sources of income they consider going up getting bomb scraps or explosive a good source and. the scrapping has been heavy there are a lot of people who go out there and go for the metal the aluminum and and different things like that and unfortunately some of the explosives when you would have any criminal element scrapper or otherwise that is able to access any significant quantities explosive materials is served no one's business interest particularly in this climate post nine eleven when we are actually a country of war because terrorists. were.
2:49 am
way. way. way. out on. one thing about the cutting and bombing range is that it's certain twenty periods that there are quantities of the explosive materials out there they drop x. number of bombs well say out of ten bombs maybe one doesn't explode so who knows how many of those are sitting out there. gotta remember the descriptors are
2:50 am
opportunists if the opportunity presents itself to axis scrap medals for explosives they will do it one particular scrap or retrieve the maverick missile the classified piece of ordinance and removed the explosive payload and where he went with it we don't know the potential for danger to the public is very real it simply highlights the importance of the military and those civilian law enforcement operation supporting together as a team i've been to court or. a lawyer stay where you go and you should fancy him. but trolls out and how are you going to patrol and fan. all of this. i know i told them the. silliest thing they ever did was to. make the fines out of aluminum they're up here scrapping aluminums. think about
2:51 am
what they're up here for some people here i have no scruples don't know nothing. most of them are my friends they don't kill people so i don't say nothing and they've already been caught for their crimes and sent to prison if you know you go right over here by the fish right here. that phone right there jay bakker go back full of interest because you can't call it a back oh it back you go left they have to have a go go go. think we're stealing their fuel for duration there's an officer right there so we go this way go go go slowly see this behind i have. for being single. and worked as a chef into wrangle colorado tumbling out to california as low does or he began to rescue any rattlesnakes he found the nile and releasing them on the bombing range he's been bitten one thousand times. i forget all the
2:52 am
stuff you supposed to do out here. you're not supposed to from here and i've learned from that and i sure know what to look out for. twenty millimeter. device. here and here if it went off in my hand it could kill like ten people or making them. get to be flying over and they have gaps and you'll. hear the noise and you'll find it in his computer. every underground for about a mile. and there's money but you need one there touching. the lever second chances. such as. i thought for me you really were giving her to try to hurt people. we could make
2:53 am
arrangements. and you'd be hoping that the officer there was here to help you. begin for the time i got through to going up when you. we harbor convinced the law enforcers treat their harshly percent of terrorist elements in this country today. according to chief michael lexica it ain't rocket science to disassemble unexploded ordinance or you xo to access the plastic explosive easy access to both easy easy access to a fiery device is. a smoke grenade to be made into a bomb. that's made into an actual grenade by using. simple over the mark over the counter devices so i think the potential is there yes w t t v thirteen we can do.
2:54 am
we begin tonight with an exclusive story we first brought you last night and it all has to do with a major explosives find in imperial county good evening everyone i'm erica is out there with k s the bt news as our top story tonight sheriff's deputies recovered the explosives of ammunition in a niland home they say it's the largest illegal ammunition find ever in niland some of it included fifty caliber live machine gun ammo and they are fifteen cluster bombs and the highest houser level before a bomb but it is what i told you that they would rate it is out to go that. the. well i tried to get the f.b.i. and a.t.f. involved in it nobody wanted to do that so in that corner blown over ten or so with their bombs. that was around the time of the convention in palm springs and that's was my concern you know there's. bombs chief mike made a frightening connection
2:55 am
a major political of that was about to convene in palm springs california eighty miles northwest of niland they were arrested in rooms going on the reason a convention go on i didn't. and why they really this is a. federal government's. rules and many times you'll find people who are law enforcement agencies say well so what if the military's just losing submit who cares it's and they just don't really understand that it's more than illegal as a way. executing a search warrant investigator lucas and chief alexis discovered photos and homemade video shot by the family. we saw following the seal came out and the seal team drop the magazine they would be right behind it they had a video picking the stuff up right and dressed just like the seals. or nancy did all draw arm blow it up and they lay just pop up bang bang
2:56 am
