the, the crews, gavin's food and water harbor. to go to check those for us. also. let me know. i got everybody locked down or almost no food. and no. what about that? only give them up. sure. can somebody talk to me in the coven, your living? like the theme of own, but in the 21st century, i joined me every thursday on the alex, silent show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me

let me . ah ah, ah me. i 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 in this area. mm winters can be very brutal. summers can be very hot. it's hard work. ah. 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 wanted to keep it in the main me. ah ah,

and i 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 kinda feel the or of how we felt when he was driving the car. even just sit and 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 andrew 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 backs, 40 years of prison,

40 years and out. that's where, why are you have to go by marijuana for individuals and then, you know, depending upon how you do and so forth. you know, a lot of this can go away. i was scandalous. i was, i never seen anything is bad. it is a good possibility. 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 through 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 up to 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. ah, 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, son 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 should adopt him. so

we said, yeah, we would, you know, pay can and so that's how he came to live with us. like else he was 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 yeah. help. oh, he got involved with his local gallagher lived a couple miles from here. just got to there one year anniversary and he was going

to make separate for all of us. oh. ready ready ready ready on. ready ready ready ready ready ready the me years where my son lost his life right here. or i haven't any car together. oh, i don't know exactly what happened to sure. you know, he just got broadside by

a train on 5060 miles an hour. i don't know if they were moving around or something and you know, they were teenage kids. exactly what happened, but it was terrific or are we just kind of relied on him for a lot. so it wasn't just losing my son like lucian, calf, my farming operation. i don't know. 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. i come, i 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 washington 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 that 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 you is where your everything happens. you're for years and 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 the the in the the i will, i will driven by dream shaped by those with me in the

me thing. we dare to ask me the me fairly casually. we would more often 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 there. so we just go and drive around a bit and come back. nothing didn't hurt anybody saw in the words that did to us or

just put us on the calendar watch movies, those are camera blazing. will all be doing joy video will help you with the race. is there individual that you know, on campus or, or wherever they can buy from probably enjoyed about else that would be more reasonable that we are able to say you're trying to make money, a campus new, more just to people to get the, you know, the levels tell me

public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse. drugs are menacing. our society substance abuse is a serious challenge for our nation. addiction breaks. hearts destroys families and keeps our citizens from refilling 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 was selling marijuana in 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 be 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 seems 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 it is kind of gave you used to the imminent danger of the police coming and knocking and find you and you 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. but so i got up and i opened the door reminder as to policeman what the heck is going on here? we can search a 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 when they searched the room for a while and they turned on finding a little tiny grinder i didn't even know was in there. i don't think neither shaddick 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 andrew, what will happen? whatever happened about days, like almost nothing, just don't tell anybody about it. and just how he 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 i happened of wasn't ready for it for sure. ah, drew had whispered something to med in private with just the 2 of us. something by the cops, they came in search. so our room and i was like, that's weird. like,

you know, but that was something i felt like could have happened to anybody threw into classes like so i didn't, i didn't know i just assumed it was fine. more of every day was in campus, police force me i i gave him 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 lot me and got his current

away last last time i seen him. ah, i never was after class we start adding back to norms. lan, static got a call and he's like he a 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 it towards the end of the night as nightcap, i take sad,

i can have you want to saga cigarette or something. so got me and then drew up in the room and we went up and met 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 off 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 merrick 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 party was the girl i met. 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 and i wasn't in bed, go see him in class in the morning. so dried don, nothing on me, injury class and static wasn't a class. i mean, he's late,

sometimes there was like, you know, so it wasn't like alarming. maybe he's, you know, with his girl or something, you know, no big deal. go to lunch the throughout the day, you didn't find any more tags or me and all the friends coverage constantly kind of pestering them all day, try and send them snaps detection and stuff throughout the day. just petition for a 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, a snapshot. that's back on the stamps. just still have the whole they can. you can see if they open that thing and you i don't think he was opening anything. were like weird. i think we weren't connecting dots and like this is not right. the next day we're like, dude, again, call someone for lunch or like, well go see if we can get his mom parents,

phone number from the college. so we went over there and we just asked to take, can we get statics, 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 saw me? we were like, do 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 don't know what andrews 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, how can you be missing? and she said he is missing and i want to put it on the news and i'm like,

put it on the news if he's missing. oh, word has gotten to us. at the mighty $790.00 camp jo 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 whose bad instantly the news bad news and of course we tried calling them and texting them and ah, maybe you 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 was never happened to me. so then right then and there i knew that was some, some good. ah,

we decided to drive down there and see what's going on because we knew it was more serious than jim just taken off. oh, friends gathered on the campus of n. dfcs today baffled why, why would you just do this? so close graduation. you know countless searches and still nothing. we've never had a student missed this long term most and we find within 24 hours. so it's been very, very frustrating. we're in campus police sergeant paladins from the office in jason webber 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 the

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk to me that the civic leg around the world expedition by 1000 miles round the clock is given the dead calm. miss wilson. as every country close

by, it was like the crew, gavin's food, and one or 2 to chat. the little little thing is that everybody's love are almost no food and no water, but really give them up. so somebody stuck a fish in the cove in your living like the fema home, but in the 21st century, when i was shot, the wrong one, i'll just don't the room. yes. to fill out the scene,

because after an engagement equals the trail went to many find themselves worlds apart. we choose to look for common ground in the susie linked, some concern messages from the us military revealed the panic to withdraw from i'm gonna stand with troops. so the able to rescue fellow citizens to the foreign special soldier who shed the trip tech. our biggest problem getting the black us government is actually not the town. i know that sounds great, but the biggest problem is not in italy band of actually it's in some cases of actually help nation of fuel, of, along the way to frequently undermine no stream to get one project on the be completed the master days with the last time welded in collections. enough cam
