Like I said, I've been sleeping in my car after I was living with my uncle. So, I've been trying to get a job. I ain't been able to get no job. I probably don't put in 1,300 applications. I don't know many jobs. I've been doing everything that I can to level things out so I can pay child support or taking my kids or handling my business or helping my mom because like I my family got a lot of health issues. So, I take my mom to the doctor. She got a pacemaker. My brother just passed away. I was helping taking care of him to the doctor. But, he just passed away. He just had a massive heart attack at my mom's house. He just died in front of us. That's what I'm sitting here trying to understand. I don't know where this come from.

I just take care of my kids. I don't get in her business. We don't go to each other. None of that. I just take care of my kids. That's it. I pay child support. That's it. So, who did she call her husband? I don't know. THAT'S MY BABY MAMA. I'M NOT MARRIED. RIGHT. >> I GOT FIVE KIDS. I don't know. >> know if she know anybody right now? I don't know, sir. What I'm saying trying to tell you, sir, I haven't been calling her, being in her business. >> Right. >> All I got to do is take care of my kids. That's it, that's it, sir. Right. >> I don't know. When you go over there to take care of the kids, you drop them off diapers, you take care of them. >> Well, I don't You don't see no dude there? >> go in the house. Her family, they don't deal with me. The family cuts me short. Okay. >> So, I got to bring it to the mailbox. They don't even communicate with me. You see what I'm saying? Like, they don't like me. So, what I do is the best I can do. I go by, drop stuff off, and go on about my business. If I get to get my kids, I get them. I can't sit here and get all in her business. I can't do that. Okay. [clears throat] What's her phone number? Mhm. 706 Okay. 461-5809. Yeah, that's her number right there. 706-461-5809. That is her number. So, like, what was she like? And I know you said you're already dealing with her much anymore, but what was she like in the past? Was she Uh I mean my I mean I mean >> [clears throat] >> she used to have a drug problem back then, but I mean she go to the clinic. She on some drugs. But, like I said, I don't get in her business. I don't know what her family got going on. I know they do drugs. You see what I'm saying? But, I don't get in their business, man. That ain't my business getting in their business. I just go drop my kids' stuff off and leave. That's it. I mean, what she sets up like this up? I don't know. What I'm saying trying to tell you, man, we got kids together. We got three children. When you When I met her When I met her, did Did she do things like this? No. Did we have these type of problems? No. But, like I said, all the thing I've been doing is at home with my mom, helping my mom and my brother. We have been separated. She live in Jefferson, I live I've been homeless cuz she was in Washington with me. But we had problems and she separated her family told her she needed to get rid of me I ain't got my [ __ ] together homeless so she choose to go back with her family. At the time when she was with her family I dealt with my uncle being I'm going through these family problems and I ain't even going to my mom's. So I've been over here with my mom and she's been over here in Jefferson. Is this tablet the same as you over at your No, tablet the same Madison County. We don't go together either. You don't go together? >> No, I got three baby mamas I don't go with none of them. Who's the other one? Man, she passed away she deceased.

Oh yeah, I know. >> Tony, Lil Jon. Yeah, I remember that one. Yeah, I remember that story. The child was with him when he killed her. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Yeah, okay right. Yeah, but the police told me cuz this is what I'm sitting here saying man, I ain't even that type of person that take nothing from nobody. Like I understand that I did sell drugs back then to do what I had to do to take nothing from a child. Like I don't got to do me to take nothing from nobody. That's not me. What I got to do? What I look like wasting my time taking something from somebody? What am I going to do take a half a whiff from somebody? I don't bother people. I don't even got that I'm my resume of who I am don't even show I don't even care. That's not me. So that's what I'm trying to understand. Well, let me tell you this is how this happened. So these computers get advertised on Facebook. These guys show up to buy the parts and so they and I'll be honest with you they described a guy with an issue with his arms. So this guy is kind of running the deal, goes into the house, then three guys come out rob them and What? >> Yeah. >> But what I'm saying so you sitting here telling me a guy they described and literally said a dude with little arms." And he said literally just like me. Yeah. Is you serious, man? Well, and I mean I'm saying though, is you serious? I'm I'm saying though, I'm really though serious. I'm like it's not even that many people like me. Well, how about this? That's what I'm saying. That doesn't even make no sense. That's what I'm saying. You said somebody described my arms. I'm the only I'm the only person around here missing a forearm. All right. So, yeah. Three black males, one had stubby arms. Yeah, he had a disability. >> disability. So, his arms didn't work? He's missing a forearm, man. I think That's what I'm saying, that's a statement, though, bro. Like it doesn't even make sense. How's somebody going to see me and say, "Hey, man, a guy with little arms robbed you." I've been like this my whole life. I don't rob nobody. I don't rob nobody. That is not me. Did Pete/Pat take anything else from these two individuals that you saw? Uh they did they did take a they they did take a phone and AirPods. A phone and AirPods. Did you see him take anything else other than that? Uh some money, that's it. Okay, so he he/Pat took money? He basically He basically made sure he took everything took all the stuff that I I had. You sitting here you asking me Do I got her Facebook? No. Do I got her information on her Facebook? No. I got my Facebook, yes. Dontavious Carroll. So, what are you talking about? Please explain it to me. Well, I think that's what we've been doing. No, it seems like you trying to phony something. I don't know what you're talking about. What I'm sitting here telling you is you can't make me sit here and say that me and Sabrina is together when we're not together. And you can't put me with people that I don't know who you're talking about. So, what person that you're talking about I showed you want to see? What guy are you talking about?

You're coming up to me and you're trying to fake something. Listen here, bro. If you run my name in my background, I've never robbed nobody. So, how you going to sit here and say somebody robbed somebody when I don't even have a background for that? And what guy is going to go out here and say a handicapped man robbed him, bro? That doesn't even make sense. Well, I'm not saying that you pointed a gun at anybody. >> No, but what I'm saying though, rule number one what I'm saying telling you, I ain't set no deal up. I don't know what you're talking about and I don't know them people that committed the crime that you're talking about. So, please quit sitting here saying Dante Stewart when I don't know who you're talking about.
