They agreed to go to a motel where he intended to leave the child alone during the encounter. Real quick. Real quick. Hey, give me a second, please. I can talk. I just need to breathe. I'm out here by myself. I don't have no family. I don't have a license to drive. I just had to get my coworker to come bring me here.

Well, and what I'll do is I will tell you everything that happened. All right. But the other thing, we can do whatever we need to in order to get you and your son to wherever they need to go. Okay. But I need to take a couple small steps here first. All right. Not a problem. I just need your first name. What exactly happened was youring son was out here asking prostitutes to link to and go to flamingo and he got caught by the undercover. You understand the fact that that man is not here right now cuz we both would have been going to the jail cuz I was taking somebody's gun and I was going to shoot his head. Yes, I was.

Okay, but listen to me. Listen to me. Because I need to know why you dragged me from New York to out here to start over about him. How I have my son. I'm 4 hours from New York. I have nothing. The nice thing is that I have access to some unique resources, okay, for you and your son. Let's forget about Mr. Rush and let's worry about you and Jacob right now. Okay, which I will gladly help you out any way that I can. Here's the issue. Okay, I'm going to give you already know what happened, so we don't need to discuss what happened with what happened because I'm trying to understand. So, okay. Can Do you want me I need you to stay home if I'm going to explain it to you though. All right. because all I care about right now is that little guy and us remaining calm for him because it's scary enough that he saw all these police officers here, dad going in the back of the car. I don't want to make it any more traumatic for him. Okay. So, the calmer that you can stay for me. No, you're doing great. I think you're doing great, but I just want you to continue to stay this way for me while I tell you. I'm sorry. I'm just I don't care that you're that you're yelling. It doesn't upset me. I just don't want him to be upset. Okay. And I want to know where you going to take my son. Where we were going to take him. You came in here to do Where were you going to take my son? I'm going to I'm going to tell you, like I said, I'm going to tell you exactly what was going to happen, but I need you to take some deep breaths before I do. Okay. He met He met with an undercover officer. All right. He didn't know obviously it was undercover officer posing as a prostitute. All right. He agreed to pay her for a and he was going to go inside one of these rooms and receive the blow and he was going to leave your son in the car while it happened. Okay, now look at me. This is where I need you to stay calm because I know I'd be extremely pissed right now if I was you. Okay, that being said, I can reach out to some resources. I don't know how much time you have paid up at the Cadillac and we can see if we can get you into some emergency type housing. Okay. Okay. By the US laws, child neglect is a serious crime, ranging from a misdemeanor to a felony. Prostitution is mostly illegal with harsh penalties for involving minors, often leading to trafficking charges. Yep, that's fine. My god. Talk to me. My son. He's right here. He's okay. Trash me. I'm right here. Okay. So, you work with her? Okay. Where does she work? She works at Walgreens at Fruitville in Manila. Perfect. Okay. Um, she told me she doesn't have a license to drive, which that's no issue. We can do all the transporting. Or if you you have a vehicle. I do have a vehicle and I have a car seat, but I don't know. That's right. He has a car seat, too. Yeah. Um, but here's what I'm getting at is there are resources for moms and young children in the city. I will reach out and I will do everything right now to get her taken care of. Okay. The only question I want on a flight to New York, listen. I can listen to me. I can I can I know I know you want to call 10 seconds. If you if you want to go back to New York, we can also work that out. Okay. I have resources to get you free transportation with your son back to New York. Okay. I need you to trust me though, right now. Okay. He took my son. I see it. But he's but he's gone now. So let's let's let's worry about you and your son right now. Okay. Deep breaths. Where's your drink? So basically what we can do is we can work on some emergency shelter options for her. We can work on what's called a homebound for her. Because as far as I'm concerned, if she's if she's staying in a hotel, has nowhere to go, we can easily articulate that she's essentially she checked out this morning was going to be able to check back in today. That's all I understood. So, she's just paying by the day, but I don't think this stuff is And just so you know, the the young lady that's over there talking to him, she is a police officer, but she's not the one that was involved in this case. Okay. So, she's totally unrelated. She's just here to hang out. Yes. And she's in plain clothes. So then he thinks it's just a regular person, not a cop, hanging out with him, and that's why she's here. Okay. Yeah. Cuz unfortunately, these situations happen more frequently than you would think. Yeah. So if your son, we could put him inside of your car for now. Unfortunately, there's some paraphernalia in plain view, so we just have to search the vehicle. This is probably Yeah, that's all. There's nothing. It's like no practical. It's just okay. That much I I can honestly say that's the only thing that this is what your son wants to do. Your son still wants to play like he's 17, 18, and I don't have the time for it, Rene, at all. Cuz honestly speaking, honestly speaking, when your son was all this other stuff, he should have just left me alone. When he first did what he did and he wanted to know, I'm sorry.
