ah let me ah, ah, my grandfather came to this country in the early 19 hundreds. he ended up buying this piece of land in the early twenties and the homestead at this area. mm. winter's can be very brutal. summers can be very hard. it's hard work. i we live right on the lake here, so we did a lot of fishing and hunting. and as i got older i realized how incredible this was

where most kids growing up didn't get this. i really wanted to keep it in the main me. ah. and was really proud of his car and it was his baby. ah, i feel when i hear that he's still around me. it can kind of feel the or of how we felt when his drive in the car, even just sit minutes. it makes me cry came just feeling how much i miss him.

i the me today it was one of the 1st times i've actually seen the footage of it happening and watched it happen. the way that andrea was approached was quick, silent without warning relate. when i think he was a bowie college kids party, their smoke pot, they drink beer. i think that he was an easy target for them. you can't tell

anybody or more people that know that where it gets all walls i do know is going to work with you. you can't tell anybody you can't tell your parents. you can't tell your friends. you can't talk to an attorney, you just need to come and talk to me the actually, the max is 40 years of prison, 40 years. and that's where, why are you have to go by marijuana for individuals? and then you know, dependent on how you do and so forth. you know, a lot of this could go away. i was scandalous. i was, i never seen anything is bad. is it possible that you really get person present time if you don't? yeah, there just, once you learn more of the background, you can understand why someone who had never really been in trouble and was only 20

and trying to get your college would be scared to death. this is way too dangerous for him to be doing fairly. they put him in harm's way, fast. we cleared up faster, you can get yourself. this wasn't right, this is corrupt. they believed him. so i'm not going to be there. i know that i rather than me on the life on the farm, you learn the circle of life cattle or morn and cattle die and you're always hoping for

a good crop. it's very calming and stressful at the same time. me, north dakota, it's a wonderful place to raise kids and we knew that we wanted to be parents at some point ah, right on top of the hills where they shook the fireworks off. usually it's on the 5th of july and there's hundreds of boats out there. and it's beautiful. and we like to take the jet ski and come up the crick here. there's, i don't know a group of 4 or 5 of us that come up here. ah, there's fun, nicholas came to live with us and the situation entailed that we adopt nicholas. then in there,

my sister was having a really bad part of her life. it just wasn't good. and then my parents came up with this idea that we adopt town. so we said, yeah, we would, you know, pay can so that's how we can live with us. like else he was, i'm or a year old. i think when we got him and that was in like 89. so it was pretty early in our, in our marriage, 7 years after we were married, andrew came along. ah, nick, welcome to the little brother. oh, he was such a proud,

big brother. even though they were 7 years apart actually, i think that was really a good spread. you gave me, i thought it for sure. it's not something to write on me. nick, when he was a country boy, a good hard worker. wasn't really all going at all. you know, quiet boy, the nick was working at the store that day and i left at noon to be in a golf tournament and it was during the summer, so he was working. and i'll never forget. as i walked out the door, he was leaning on a carry out, a grocery carry a cart said,

good luck to day mom marcia tonight. and i said yeah, around midnight and he goes yup. help. oh, he got involved with his local gallagher lived a couple miles from here. just got to their one year anniversary and he was going to make supper for all of us. oh. ready ready ready on. ready ready ready ready the me years where my son lost his life. right here. or

is tabitha in a car together? oh, i don't know exactly what happened to sure. you know he's got broad sighted by a train on 5060 miles an hour. i don't know if they were moving around or something and you know, their teenage kids. exactly what happened, but it was terrific or are we just kind of relied on him up for a lot. so it wasn't just losing my son, like lucian kept my farming operation. i don't

use it 3 time. i shut down. i didn't work for 6 months. andrew and i went to grief counseling. just it was because of andrew that i found back. cuz i'm like, somebody's gotta take care of this kid. oh yeah. oh. whopping. in small town, people know each other and pretty close knit community. i would say there's not a lot of crime. you know, that was a lot of the cell, you know, to mom and dad bringing their, their, their,

their young adults to their campus. this is a brand new experience for a lot of them treating. i president john richmond and i want to welcome you for the north dakota state college of science. we hope that you are the heart and soul of warburton is the north dakota state college of science. it is where north dakota and the region come shopping for trade and tech. it is this melting pot of ranchers, of farmers, you've got nurses, you've got dental, you've got diesel mechanics, you've got electricians. i mean, you can come out and make a very good living. right away while it's in there was the 99.8 or some crazy big job placement afterwards, and that really caught my attention. so looks like a good place to go. like wow, as where you meet your friends, you're around forever. this is where this is where everything happens. you're for

years that every person gets the lives and it's going to be the best use your life . oh, i had no idea. what i want to do is have a teacher that says i want to be a truck driver. ironically, the, the, me when alex seem wrong. when old joe don't, the rules. yes to shape out the same because the after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves world apart, we choose to look for common ground in

the. ready ready quintinella class person. i knew often the saw that the blue book truly i don't you someone from the the because it's always more you to meet the he's going to be on the contrary. the usually so which and practice and what gone. yeah. cuz really new from the moment that she's in the car when you need to bring it up on the none of my new middle charts that exam on

the the me park fairly casually. we would more often than not go out in the car and just go for a little cruise because more times it out there was a top driving around the parking lot for the college. so that's what they're looking for. so we can not very smart just to sit in the car and there. so we'd just go and drive around a bit and come back. nothing didn't hurt anybody. so indoors did to us or just put us on the couch, watch movies,

those are camera blazing. will all be done as you're doing well, is there individual that you know on campus or or wherever they can buy from probably about else that would be more reasonable. that would be more reasonable to say your trans all makes money. a campus here now new, more just to people to get the you know, the, the level. so tell me public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse,

drugs or menacing. our society substance abuse is a serious challenge for our nation addiction breaks. hearts destroys families and keeps our citizens from fulfilling their god given potential. what's the war on drugs? it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of, of north dakota. war on drugs were on drugs. and it got to be something that you could get elected with you know, you had to be tough on crime. tough. find crime. tough. foreign crime will selling marijuana. north dakota is a crime. and so, you know, you start seeing the feds put out more and more money to empower that. and so what happens is, it's like, you know, there's the money, go get the money. we can have another officer too if we have the money. and so therefore we're dealing with this and we're part of the world. ah, we had done

a couple of stories about them making drug laws stiffer. they had this enhanced campus related drug lot. so basically if you have a little bit of weed that would maybe be a misdemeanor, if you're on a school campus that could be a felony. and so i think that their thought process and that was ok. let's prosecute people who are selling to students, or let's prosecute people that are doing something that is going to impact young kids. rather than just the average adult out on the street. the local law enforcement was able to go onto a campus where they're that has its own law enforcement agency. they had essentially unfettered access to the dormitories on the dfcs campus. and they could go into the hallways. and to the end to the dorm rooms,

this just seemed like an unconstitutional situation. me moving off in the number of police blew me away. i was the 1st thing i thought was like, there's a car they get every block is kind of gave you used to the imminent danger of the police coming and knocking and find you and he just kind of don't care me. i think we had a long night before, and i know we were both sleeping viper off and we had a knock on the door and the heck is not anything. somebody call me if they're coming over or something. so i got up and i open the door, i'm on the whereas 2, policeman, what the heck is going on here? you can search your room really? yeah. i guess you're here. so we just, we opened up the door and they came in and i sat on my bed and you said i read and

they searched the room for a while and they turned on finding a little tiny grinder. i didn't even know was in there and neither sad or i knew when they found that they looked at me and you can go to class, they showed me away right away. it's kind of odd that i went to class and came back from class and i asked him about, i was like andrew, what happened? whatever happened about days, like almost nothing, just don't tell anybody about it. and you just hushed me right away and i didn't tell me not tell anybody. i did mention something to eric just briefly afterwards because i was in shock that happened of was ready for it for sure. ah, drew had whispered something to me in private with just the 2 of us, something by the cops that came in like the search to our room. we're dude, you know, but that was something i felt like have happened to anybody threw into classes like

so i didn't, i didn't know and i just assumed it was fine. lot of every day was in campus, police force me i i gave them a big hug and thanked him for helping me. and he says, and i asked him what he's going to do and he says, i gotta, i gotta go down, gotta date. oh so hard them and said i told him i loved him and he told me last me and got his current away last last time i've seen him.

ah, i never was after class, we started heading back to norms. lan, static got a call and he's like, he'll know, party later nosing now i guess walked up the stairs and he said, i'll come get you when i'm ready and i said hurts, feel man 11 flight of stairs and i was for the end of the night as my cap, it takes out, i can. okay. do you want to smoke cigarettes or something? so got me and andrew is up in the room and we went up and married, drew, and andrew had

a movie. so he just put it on and kind of bought the movie and sat there and nothing seemed weird at all. like just hanging out like every other day ever when the movie is over. i remember i was pretty ready for bed. and then eric mayor goes, went back to his room and static was ready for bed. and then he got up and he's like, i had to go sometimes he'd go out and tardy was the girl i meant he asked me even if i wanted to come with him. i'm already have asleep, man, you gotta do it. i'll be. i'll be here when you get back when he wasn't there, when i woke up and looked over his, i wasn't better than go see him in class in the morning. so dried done, nothing on me. injury class and static wasn't a class. i mean, he's late, sometimes there was like, so it wasn't like alarming. maybe he's, you know, what is some girl or something,

you know, no big deal. go to lunch throughout the day. you didn't find any more tags or me and all the friends coverage constantly kind of pestering them all the trans, send them snaps detection and stuff throughout the day. just fishing for reply, trying to see where a friend is as a day went on, we got a class where to suffer with paul marsh. and i remember him specifically making more of a big deal about it than either of us. it just wasn't like us to not tax back, not answer, snapshots back on the stamps, still have the whole they can, you can see if they open it thing and you, i don't think he was opening anything. were like weird. i think we were just connecting dots and like this is not right. the next day we're like, dude, again, call someone, i guess for lunch we will go see if we can get his mom parents, phone number from the the college. so we went over there and we just asked to,

can we get sad parents, phone numbers, so we can get ahold of them and just see if he's at home or something so they kind of freaked out right away. they're like, well, you don't know where your friend is. you don't know like what worries out like what was last time you song, we were like still, we just got him in so much trouble. ah. friday at noon, the phone rang and they asked for andrew and they didn't identify themselves. and i, and i'm like andrew way at school and they're like, this is a school and said that he was missing. and i'm like when you mean missing, he's on campus. he lives on campus, hopefully be missing and she said he's missing. and i want to put it on the news and i'm like, put it on the news if he is missing. oh,

word has gotten to us. at the mighty 790 came into our newsroom and a young man named andrew static has gone missing. andrew is a student at the north dakota state college of science. now, if you're wondering how andrew static looks, please go to k of joe dot com for that. let's help find out. oh, i had the feeling who's bad instantly. a news bad news and of course we tried calling them and texting and ah, maybe skip a class or 2 but the missing for a day without letting us know what's going on. that wasn't, there wasn't andrew. i wouldn't never happened to me. so then right in there i, i knew that was some, some good. ah, we decided to just drive down there and see what's going on. because we knew it was

more serious than jim just taken off. all friends gathered on the campus of n dfcs today baffled why, why would you just do this? so of course graduation, you know, countless searches and still nothing. we've never had a student missed this long term. most of them we find within 24 hours. so it's been very, very frustrating. we're in campus police sergeant halligan's office and jason weber came in all elegance and said that jason webber was the one in charge. and that andrew was in a lot of trouble with drugs. and i was like trouble with drugs. andrew oh, the ah,

the eastern half of the united states were going to have billions, if not trillions of periodical cicadas interacting with tens of millions of human beings in their back yard. oh my god. obviously some of the cicadas did not have very high tolerance for alcohol because they are already passing out there 6 minutes to 400. i mean that's very satisfying and democratic society, that's free space, right? words are spoken freely in those words that catch attention and result in something

that is beneficial to all have a place in the market in the marketplace of ideas. and those words and ideas that don't benefit society as a whole tend to get discredited or weaned out of the conversation off through the magic of pokemon dialogue through the magic of free free. so what you saying is that they no longer have that competence to respect the 1st amendment. they are not a competent nation, they see the rise of china, and they've lost all their confidence and they're going to repeal that delay. the 1st amendment is why you're watching down a street in a town and in the store and windows are negative. in depression, you tend to go into the store and buy those thoughts and take them home as if they're yours. mindfulness. you walk down the street, you still see the sort storefront with the negative thoughts,

but you don't go in and buy those gosh, in my phone. and i don't, i just saw up dollar format, isis fighters now boarding a philippine naval ship with john $900.00. jeff, aren't abdulla still don't know what's waiting for them to do? can i

get a hold of me i today's headlines on our t international, a chilling effect on press freedom that the reaction to a new law proposed by the u. k. government, which could lead journalist states lengthy present terms if they disclose. the julian from the devastation in china made what is said to be the worst flooding in 1000 years. it's called depth wiped out transport infrastructure and 3 dampers and the sports world cover up norway's beach handball team is fine.
