So, I have This is your bag. There's some clothes in it. And we're going to give this back to you. There's some money here. I'm going to open this. So, we can >> my bag? Yeah, we just We have to count it though. I just want to you to witness that all the money is in there. Okay, it's just accountability. Do you mind? Is that okay? All right, cool. All right, sir. If you just want to watch here real quick. Open your palm for me. That's 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 150 50 60 61 62 63 64 65. Okay? I just need a signature here. Saying saying that I just gave you guys money. Would you like to sign, please? >> Would you put it in my bag? I will I I will. Okay, now the cell phone. This is the cell phone. So, I have to explain to you exactly what we did with your phone. Wait, do I just say today's date? Yes, please. >> Would you just put it Would you say The fourth. Thank you. So, what are we doing here? Okay. So, by law, I have to give you This is your phone. So, here's back to you. Thank you so much. Okay. Now, this is a search warrant. The judge Kahoga County Judge Russo signed it. Can we pause for a minute? You had You had search activity, you downloaded the data. Everything now nobody's looking at? >> Nobody's looking. Like we mirrored the phone, we're going to look through the phone. Right, but everything she does now No. That Now, she's on her own. Okay. All we care about is free. Right now, I'm not concerned what she does. She's She's free to do whatever she wants. But, by law, this is the receipt of what we did, which is a download of the data, and this is the search warrant. Now, the search warrant lists the crime we're investigating as an aggravated vehicular homicide times two. Okay? Because two people were killed in a car crash. It does not mean I'm going to make this very clear. We're not charging you with aggravated vehicular homicide. This is just what the crime we have to investigate. So, there's a crash, and there is the criminal aspect of it. And we just have to look at both so we can eliminate if we have anything to eliminate. But, ultimately, it goes to the prosecutor's office, Kahoga County. They will look at it since since Kenzie was a juvenile at the time >> [snorts] >> they will decide if she gets charged or not. So, right now, I'm not going to interview her. She's obviously not in a good good place to be interviewed. She has an attorney. Once she's released, I gave you my contact info, have your lawyer give me a call or give me your contact your lawyer's contact info, and then I'll call him. And if he wants her to cooperate, that's his decision. If he doesn't want her to cooperate, that's his decision. I do want you to know that a lot of people are coming to us and reporting things. And so, usually Yes, I was told that. usually, the most accurate information we're going to get is from her. So, whether or not she chooses to cooperate on advice of counsel, that's up to her. I'm not going to go over her with you. >> what are the people coming in and saying? I cannot tell you that. That's the investigation. That's why >> if it has nothing to do with the crash? Well, >> Right? Cuz we don't know. We have to put everything together, but this is a copy of the search warrant with the affidavit and everything that the judge looked at. Okay? I'm going to take my paperwork back. Do you have any questions for me at this time? Um I have one. Were they able to pull video, I know you off the building across the street? Off the bus. >> Well, I I again, I cannot comment on the investigation, but we're we have some evidence that we're collecting. >> Snapchat's, too? Like opening stuff? We did not we just mirrored your phone. >> like two of like three of them open. We we did not. But either way, even if we did, we have a search warrant, so which allows us We're going to look through everything that's on your phone. Okay? Up until the moment that I gave it back to you or until the moment we mirrored it, so. Uh we also have uh we're going to look at the car tomorrow. We're going to download the black box from the car, so we know if there was any type of error. We're going to have OSP they're sending a reconstruction uh trooper to look at it and download the material. We also got a search warrant for that as well. Where is the car? The Market Street Market Street is It's in our possession. It's in our impound lot. My insurance said that they pay for storage fees. >> Yeah, that's fine, but we're not releasing it yet, so they're not going to be able to go look at it. No, no. They I didn't know if I had to pay a storage fee. I'm just trying to I don't Your insurance should should Okay. should take care of that. But I would like to know who your attorney is. I need his contact information. >> Can I send it to you later cuz I have a meeting with him? I'm I have an We haven't officially shook hands and dotted eyes and tees. We're going to have a We're having a conference call this afternoon. This is a very difficult situation and you can put this on the record. I am not here to try to interview your daughter and get some incriminating info I'm not. At this point we are investigating. I am I want to protect her constitutional rights. So it's very very important that your lawyer gets in contact with me or I get in contact with him so we can say, "Hey sir, are you going to let her cooperate or not?" If he says, "We're not saying anything." then we have to build our case based on everything else. Uh you know, unfortunately there were three people in the car, only one is still around to tell us what happened. So but the decision's hers, okay? When do we find out about mechanical errors? What's the time frame? Nothing is going to come out anytime soon. This is going to take months. I I want you to please understand that I'm going to be your point of contact with Strongsville Police but it's not going to be a quick process.
