00:00:03.925 --> 00:00:05.969
Shortly after John fired me

00:00:07.220 --> 00:00:09.389
the police came to me to say,

00:00:09.472 --> 00:00:13.226
"Your old boss is accusing
you of stealing a bunch of bugs."

00:00:14.936 --> 00:00:16.938
It was absolutely shocking.

00:00:18.398 --> 00:00:20.608
I didn't really
understand any of that.

00:00:20.608 --> 00:00:21.693
I told them what the deal was.

00:00:23.361 --> 00:00:25.030
There was no crime committed.

00:00:25.572 --> 00:00:26.865
There was no theft.

00:00:26.906 --> 00:00:28.033
There was no heist.

00:00:29.451 --> 00:00:33.204
Most of these insects didn't even exist.

00:00:35.248 --> 00:00:36.875
This was all fabricated.

00:00:37.709 --> 00:00:40.545
If John could have lied
about those insects,

00:00:40.628 --> 00:00:41.880
what else could he lie about?

00:00:57.812 --> 00:00:59.147
I'm just gonna hand you these

00:00:59.147 --> 00:01:00.648
if you could take a look please?

00:01:04.611 --> 00:01:06.237
What do those documents say?

00:01:08.490 --> 00:01:09.574
This document appears

00:01:09.616 --> 00:01:11.618
to be a United States
Department of Agriculture

00:01:11.701 --> 00:01:14.245
report of investigation
regarding the theft

00:01:14.329 --> 00:01:17.832
at the Insectarium & Butterfly Pavilion
or IBP.

00:01:18.958 --> 00:01:20.585
The synopsis indicates

00:01:20.668 --> 00:01:22.003
"approximately six employees

00:01:22.087 --> 00:01:25.548
brought their personally owned
arthropod/reptile collections

00:01:25.632 --> 00:01:27.675
to IBP for display."

00:01:27.759 --> 00:01:29.761
And when the employees removed them,

00:01:29.844 --> 00:01:32.597
John contacted
the Philadelphia Police Department

00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:34.432
and reported them stolen.

00:01:34.974 --> 00:01:37.310
To put all this report in a nutshell,

00:01:37.352 --> 00:01:39.854
the narrative presented

00:01:39.854 --> 00:01:41.981
by Mr. Cambridge
doesn't make sense.

00:01:43.108 --> 00:01:44.192
The investigators found John

00:01:44.234 --> 00:01:46.027
to be inconsistent,

00:01:46.152 --> 00:01:47.320
causing him to lose credibility

00:01:47.362 --> 00:01:49.280
as a victim in this matter.

00:01:49.364 --> 00:01:51.366
It was really scary,
'cause some of these

00:01:51.407 --> 00:01:53.451
are very dangerous creatures.

00:01:53.535 --> 00:01:56.121
The way that
this story snowballed,

00:01:56.204 --> 00:01:58.414
it started out so small,

00:01:58.414 --> 00:02:00.667
and then just took
on a life of its own.

00:02:01.292 --> 00:02:03.294
And this whole circus

00:02:04.921 --> 00:02:06.422
really never happened.

00:02:06.506 --> 00:02:08.299
We're getting a look
at new surveillance video

00:02:08.299 --> 00:02:09.884
in the theft of insects
and small reptiles

00:02:09.926 --> 00:02:12.053
in Northeast Philadelphia.

00:02:12.137 --> 00:02:14.180
Now, the CEO believes
a former employee

00:02:14.222 --> 00:02:16.224
and a group of other people

00:02:16.307 --> 00:02:17.308
are behind this.

00:02:18.059 --> 00:02:20.186
It was heartbreaking to see

00:02:20.270 --> 00:02:23.148
the camera footage of us doing our jobs

00:02:23.231 --> 00:02:25.150
and to see it spun
in a way that...

00:02:25.191 --> 00:02:27.277
That we're thieves.

00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:29.946
He believes this was
an inside job.

00:02:30.405 --> 00:02:32.157
It's... it's just not the truth.

00:02:32.782 --> 00:02:33.783
They're looking at some people

00:02:33.825 --> 00:02:34.868
who used to work there.

00:02:34.868 --> 00:02:36.744
All eyes were on us,

00:02:37.370 --> 00:02:40.206
and it was scary.

00:02:40.748 --> 00:02:42.250
After initially the FBI

00:02:42.250 --> 00:02:43.710
and the police got involved,

00:02:43.751 --> 00:02:45.461
I was absolutely worried

00:02:45.503 --> 00:02:47.213
that I was going to prison.

00:02:47.255 --> 00:02:48.923
We all started having the police

00:02:48.965 --> 00:02:50.592
show up at our house.

00:02:52.760 --> 00:02:54.679
When we went to Chris's home,

00:02:54.762 --> 00:02:57.765
we started going
over what the accusations were,

00:02:57.849 --> 00:02:59.601
what they claimed was taken,

00:02:59.601 --> 00:03:01.436
and what was there
at the Insectarium.

00:03:02.604 --> 00:03:03.605
I realized that stuff

00:03:03.646 --> 00:03:06.649
that was taken
from the Insectarium

00:03:06.774 --> 00:03:08.109
didn't belong to the Insectarium.

00:03:08.193 --> 00:03:10.528
We understood that this was not a theft.

00:03:10.612 --> 00:03:11.613
This was not a robbery.

00:03:11.613 --> 00:03:13.531
This was a dispute
over property.

00:03:13.615 --> 00:03:14.657
Detective Zanetich

00:03:14.699 --> 00:03:17.202
had a premonition that
maybe Mr. Cambridge

00:03:17.285 --> 00:03:20.705
might have led us down
a wrong path on this case.

00:03:20.788 --> 00:03:21.831
The Philadelphia Police

00:03:21.873 --> 00:03:23.124
came to the conclusion

00:03:23.166 --> 00:03:24.959
that there was no crime

00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:26.711
when it came to
the missing bugs.

00:03:28.504 --> 00:03:29.672
Was there a bug heist?

00:03:29.756 --> 00:03:31.549
No. There wasn't a bug heist.

00:03:31.633 --> 00:03:32.300
There was...

00:03:32.300 --> 00:03:34.219
there were no bugs to steal.

00:03:34.302 --> 00:03:36.262
There were never 7,000 insects

00:03:36.304 --> 00:03:39.349
at the Philadelphia Insectarium.

00:03:40.058 --> 00:03:43.478
At most, we maybe had a couple hundred,

00:03:43.561 --> 00:03:44.938
and they weren't his.

00:03:44.979 --> 00:03:46.314
He knows that.

00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:47.357
I know that.

00:03:47.398 --> 00:03:48.733
They were ours.

00:03:49.275 --> 00:03:50.652
John claims that
there was a policy

00:03:50.777 --> 00:03:52.403
in the employee handbook
that said

00:03:52.487 --> 00:03:54.489
any books that were
brought to the museum

00:03:54.489 --> 00:03:56.157
became the museum's property.

00:03:56.241 --> 00:03:57.659
I have that employee handbook.

00:03:57.700 --> 00:03:58.910
It is not in there.

00:03:58.993 --> 00:04:01.287
And what about John's kind of
like fallback position

00:04:01.329 --> 00:04:03.331
that this was an oral policy?

00:04:03.414 --> 00:04:05.291
I don't think there was a policy

00:04:05.333 --> 00:04:06.334
saying your property now

00:04:06.459 --> 00:04:08.294
becomes my property,

00:04:08.336 --> 00:04:09.504
that anything brought into the museum

00:04:09.545 --> 00:04:10.713
belongs to the museum.

00:04:10.838 --> 00:04:11.881
I spoke to all
these kids involved

00:04:11.923 --> 00:04:13.341
in the incident,

00:04:13.466 --> 00:04:15.176
and none of them were aware
of any of that.

00:04:18.721 --> 00:04:21.683
These employees
were bringing their property

00:04:21.766 --> 00:04:24.310
into the Insectarium to display it.

00:04:26.771 --> 00:04:29.107
These items that
were reported stolen

00:04:29.148 --> 00:04:30.733
actually belonged to these kids.

00:04:31.442 --> 00:04:32.652
Some of these kids

00:04:32.652 --> 00:04:34.737
had better collections than
the Insectarium.

00:04:36.447 --> 00:04:38.533
We put them on display

00:04:38.533 --> 00:04:39.701
because we had no budget.

00:04:41.202 --> 00:04:42.245
We were left with no choice

00:04:42.245 --> 00:04:44.372
but to use our own pets

00:04:44.455 --> 00:04:47.166
in display for his museum.

00:04:48.209 --> 00:04:50.920
I did it out of love for my job

00:04:50.962 --> 00:04:54.132
and to educate young
people about insects.

00:04:54.841 --> 00:04:58.219
I had all of my personal
like favorite pets

00:04:58.344 --> 00:05:00.972
in the Insectarium on display.

00:05:01.806 --> 00:05:03.683
I wasn't going to
let him have them,

00:05:03.725 --> 00:05:05.727
so I brought them home.

00:05:05.852 --> 00:05:07.979
So I started taking things home

00:05:08.062 --> 00:05:09.897
because there was a good chance
we would never see

00:05:09.939 --> 00:05:11.858
those animals again otherwise.

00:05:11.941 --> 00:05:14.861
That is when John reported
everything stolen,

00:05:20.658 --> 00:05:21.868
It doesn't make any sense

00:05:21.868 --> 00:05:23.328
that we would have stolen

00:05:23.411 --> 00:05:26.205
from the Insectarium
because we work there.

00:05:26.289 --> 00:05:29.250
We know that there are cameras
all over that building.

00:05:31.502 --> 00:05:33.838
I remember seeing Alison

00:05:33.921 --> 00:05:36.257
leaving with topes
out the front door,

00:05:36.257 --> 00:05:37.508
like taking stuff.

00:05:37.592 --> 00:05:38.676
No one stopped her.

00:05:38.718 --> 00:05:39.635
No one said anything.

00:05:40.678 --> 00:05:41.512
Why are you on the news

00:05:41.554 --> 00:05:42.930
telling people
we're getting robbed,

00:05:42.930 --> 00:05:44.098
but like we're all pretty much

00:05:44.098 --> 00:05:45.058
watching them walk out the door.

00:05:45.099 --> 00:05:46.642
It didn't make sense to me.

00:05:46.768 --> 00:05:48.227
But he loved to be on the news.

00:05:48.269 --> 00:05:50.229
The media heard one story

00:05:50.229 --> 00:05:51.314
and then just stuck with it,

00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:53.274
which was John's story.

00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:54.650
We know exactly who did it.

00:05:54.776 --> 00:05:56.027
We have them on camera doing it.

00:05:56.027 --> 00:05:57.820
We know where the
critters were taken.

00:05:57.945 --> 00:05:58.946
They just went with it.

00:05:58.988 --> 00:06:00.198
And they made headlines over...

00:06:00.198 --> 00:06:01.407
All over the place.

00:06:01.449 --> 00:06:03.201
Orkin gave him, I believe,

00:06:03.201 --> 00:06:06.245
a $10,000 donation

00:06:06.287 --> 00:06:08.289
because of the supposed the theft.

00:06:08.373 --> 00:06:09.707
And then the GoFundMe

00:06:09.749 --> 00:06:11.334
made tens of thousands.

00:06:11.417 --> 00:06:12.460
Tens of thousands.

00:06:12.543 --> 00:06:13.795
It's great publicity.

00:06:13.795 --> 00:06:15.380
Look at how much money he made.

00:06:15.463 --> 00:06:16.172
His business

00:06:16.214 --> 00:06:18.091
was international news,

00:06:18.174 --> 00:06:21.094
and that was the happiest he's ever been.

00:06:22.553 --> 00:06:23.679
If they piecemeal sell it,

00:06:23.721 --> 00:06:24.639
they'll get about 40,000.

00:06:24.722 --> 00:06:25.848
Valued at 41,000...

00:06:25.932 --> 00:06:26.974
Over 40,000...

00:06:27.058 --> 00:06:28.059
Forty thousand dollars.

00:06:28.142 --> 00:06:30.186
Up to $50,000.

00:06:30.269 --> 00:06:31.979
I had an independent expert

00:06:31.979 --> 00:06:34.315
evaluate the list of bugs,

00:06:34.899 --> 00:06:37.318
and it came to

00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.237
a fraction of the $50,000.

00:06:40.071 --> 00:06:41.197
And it seemed like John

00:06:41.239 --> 00:06:42.281
wasn't a hundred percent sure

00:06:42.323 --> 00:06:44.325
what he actually
had in the museum

00:06:44.325 --> 00:06:45.618
which was a serious problem.

00:06:45.993 --> 00:06:48.704
I think that those numbers were off.

00:06:48.830 --> 00:06:50.248
I think those numbers were inflated.

00:06:51.916 --> 00:06:53.167
There was also a lot

00:06:53.167 --> 00:06:55.002
of talk of the federal evidence.

00:06:55.628 --> 00:06:57.630
Was the Insectarium housing
federal evidence?

00:06:57.672 --> 00:06:58.673
No.

00:07:00.133 --> 00:07:02.218
John had alluded

00:07:02.343 --> 00:07:05.346
that some of the items in the Insectarium

00:07:05.471 --> 00:07:06.514
were part of evidence
of a bigger case

00:07:06.514 --> 00:07:09.183
on a federal level,

00:07:09.225 --> 00:07:11.686
so we did inquire with the FBI

00:07:11.686 --> 00:07:14.147
to look into that,

00:07:14.188 --> 00:07:15.773
and they couldn't find any cases

00:07:15.773 --> 00:07:16.899
where he would have
been holding items

00:07:16.941 --> 00:07:18.693
for the federal government.

00:07:22.572 --> 00:07:25.575
I had no idea
what he was capable of

00:07:25.658 --> 00:07:29.036
as far as my future career,

00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:31.581
my collection, anything, my life.

00:07:32.498 --> 00:07:35.543
A month after the "heist"

00:07:35.626 --> 00:07:37.378
had taken place

00:07:39.130 --> 00:07:40.923
three police officers,

00:07:40.965 --> 00:07:42.967
an FBI agent, and

00:07:42.967 --> 00:07:45.178
expert witness

00:07:45.261 --> 00:07:47.054
came to my house with a no-knock warrant.

00:07:51.058 --> 00:07:53.561
They went into my animal room

00:07:53.561 --> 00:07:57.398
and I showed them what I had.

00:07:59.066 --> 00:08:01.235
I was absolutely hysterical.

00:08:01.277 --> 00:08:03.154
I was being told that

00:08:03.196 --> 00:08:05.865
the potential jail time

00:08:05.907 --> 00:08:08.576
could be up to 10 years in federal prison,

00:08:09.035 --> 00:08:10.703
that I could be
seeing some serious

00:08:10.745 --> 00:08:14.290
life-altering
problems with this.

00:08:16.375 --> 00:08:17.793
And what about Chrissy
in all this?

00:08:17.919 --> 00:08:19.587
Chrissy was always
presenting herself

00:08:19.712 --> 00:08:21.130
to be completely on our side.

00:08:21.672 --> 00:08:25.301
However, she lied too.

00:08:27.178 --> 00:08:30.431
This is a screenshot
of a text message conversation

00:08:30.515 --> 00:08:31.807
that I had with Chrissy

00:08:33.100 --> 00:08:36.687
about acquiring giant African land snails.

00:08:37.980 --> 00:08:40.942
So Chrissy had assured me that, um

00:08:42.860 --> 00:08:43.694
we did in fact,

00:08:43.694 --> 00:08:45.196
have all the correct
permits needed

00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:47.740
to own giant
African land snails,

00:08:47.782 --> 00:08:50.201
which after speaking
to the USDA,

00:08:50.284 --> 00:08:51.702
um, nobody in the
United States

00:08:51.744 --> 00:08:53.788
owns permits to own giant
African land snails.

00:08:53.871 --> 00:08:54.413
Doesn't exist.

00:08:54.455 --> 00:08:56.249
That permit does not exist.

00:08:56.624 --> 00:08:59.126
Chrissy knew about
that giant African land snail.

00:08:59.168 --> 00:09:01.629
We had meetings about it.

00:09:02.255 --> 00:09:03.422
So do you think Chrissy

00:09:03.422 --> 00:09:05.132
was just kind of
under John's thumb?

00:09:06.092 --> 00:09:07.969
I think that Chrissy

00:09:07.969 --> 00:09:10.096
had a lot invested
in the Insectarium.

00:09:10.638 --> 00:09:13.140
Chrissy is the permit holder for the bugs.

00:09:15.518 --> 00:09:17.061
So, I think that

00:09:17.061 --> 00:09:19.188
she was under a tremendous amount of pressure

00:09:19.313 --> 00:09:20.690
with John's influence.

00:09:21.482 --> 00:09:23.359
She was a pretty good manager,

00:09:23.484 --> 00:09:25.695
but she made mistakes.

00:09:34.662 --> 00:09:36.330
You're gonna sit
like right there.

00:09:37.373 --> 00:09:39.375
Woosah.

00:09:39.458 --> 00:09:41.419
Well, you can have a seat.

00:09:43.212 --> 00:09:45.131
This one is a
difficult one for me,

00:09:45.172 --> 00:09:46.007
I'm not gonna lie.

00:09:46.090 --> 00:09:48.050
What's difficult about it?

00:09:49.927 --> 00:09:51.178
I'm not perfect.

00:09:51.220 --> 00:09:52.471
I make many, many mistakes.

00:09:53.139 --> 00:09:55.891
Um, but I will not continue

00:09:56.017 --> 00:09:58.185
to take the weight

00:09:58.185 --> 00:10:00.396
of somebody else

00:10:00.479 --> 00:10:02.023
and what they've done.

00:10:02.106 --> 00:10:03.190
No more.

00:10:03.816 --> 00:10:05.443
I'm done.

00:10:06.193 --> 00:10:09.322
Done lying for John.

00:10:11.866 --> 00:10:13.451
Ever since the heist,

00:10:13.534 --> 00:10:16.329
John does whatever the heck
he wants to do.

00:10:17.496 --> 00:10:19.957
I found out in this last, like,
couple of weeks

00:10:19.999 --> 00:10:22.084
that John has
taken a ton of money

00:10:22.126 --> 00:10:24.670
from the museum.

00:10:25.504 --> 00:10:28.299
I've covered for him for a long time,

00:10:29.425 --> 00:10:30.426
and...

00:10:32.178 --> 00:10:33.512
I can't do it anymore.

00:10:34.930 --> 00:10:36.599
During this pandemic,

00:10:36.599 --> 00:10:38.893
he has made me lie

00:10:39.018 --> 00:10:41.270
to employees every single week,

00:10:41.354 --> 00:10:42.855
like informing Kinzler

00:10:42.855 --> 00:10:44.523
that you're gonna get paid.

00:10:45.232 --> 00:10:48.486
We were cheating the system for people

00:10:48.569 --> 00:10:50.363
that were going to be collecting

00:10:50.363 --> 00:10:53.282
for unemployment.

00:10:53.824 --> 00:10:55.076
John always justifies

00:10:55.076 --> 00:10:58.829
everything with,

00:10:58.913 --> 00:11:00.373
"Chrissy, you and I,

00:11:00.373 --> 00:11:01.415
we're gonna rock this place.

00:11:01.499 --> 00:11:02.541
"We're gonna kick ...

00:11:02.625 --> 00:11:03.751
"And if this is what

00:11:03.751 --> 00:11:05.169
we have to do at this point,

00:11:05.252 --> 00:11:06.712
this is what we have to do."

00:11:07.254 --> 00:11:09.674
I have responsibility right now,

00:11:09.715 --> 00:11:11.258
and I cannot walk away

00:11:11.300 --> 00:11:13.052
because my name
is on all the permits.

00:11:13.177 --> 00:11:14.470
My name is on one of the loans,

00:11:14.553 --> 00:11:17.306
so it's not easy for me to just walk away.

00:11:17.973 --> 00:11:20.559
But the fact is
that John himself

00:11:20.601 --> 00:11:22.687
has destroyed the business.

00:11:26.691 --> 00:11:28.401
Just look at the sandcastle.

00:11:30.403 --> 00:11:31.821
What are you building?

00:11:31.904 --> 00:11:33.322
It's an amphitheater,

00:11:33.406 --> 00:11:34.740
a coliseum.

00:11:39.370 --> 00:11:41.247
He bought the containers

00:11:41.330 --> 00:11:44.750
because he just has that
extreme attitude of,

00:11:44.834 --> 00:11:46.377
"I'm powerful,

00:11:46.460 --> 00:11:48.671
and this is how I'm gonna run the place."

00:11:49.714 --> 00:11:51.006
There was no plan,

00:11:51.090 --> 00:11:53.092
there was nothing
that went through

00:11:53.134 --> 00:11:55.678
the city to process
or make it legal.

00:12:00.057 --> 00:12:02.017
What permit would John
need for this job?

00:12:02.101 --> 00:12:03.686
Uh, he would need blueprints,

00:12:03.728 --> 00:12:05.479
he would need
engineers, structural.

00:12:05.563 --> 00:12:07.523
He would need a lot of shit.

00:12:08.733 --> 00:12:10.067
It was not safe

00:12:10.067 --> 00:12:12.236
and it made me very
scared as a parent.

00:12:15.614 --> 00:12:17.783
There was a lot of stuff there
that would never ever,

00:12:17.908 --> 00:12:19.285
ever, ever, ever, ever pay us.

00:12:19.410 --> 00:12:21.787
Ever, like, just no, it's wrong.

00:12:26.333 --> 00:12:27.585
The total price John spent

00:12:27.585 --> 00:12:29.628
on the sandcastle

00:12:29.754 --> 00:12:32.298
was a hundred and forty thousand dollars,

00:12:32.882 --> 00:12:34.550
so the financial
state of the museum

00:12:34.550 --> 00:12:37.636
is horrific.

00:12:37.762 --> 00:12:38.971
It is horrible.

00:12:39.972 --> 00:12:41.432
We have maybe $200

00:12:41.474 --> 00:12:44.351
in the bank account.

00:12:45.019 --> 00:12:47.688
The sandcastle is not open now,

00:12:47.688 --> 00:12:49.690
and it's not gonna be open.

00:12:49.774 --> 00:12:51.358
On top of the sandcastle,

00:12:51.484 --> 00:12:53.903
the Insectarium
has a significant amount of money

00:12:53.986 --> 00:12:55.988
that is leaving the Insectarium account.

00:12:56.071 --> 00:12:57.072
I'm really curious as to

00:12:57.114 --> 00:12:58.699
where all of the money is going.

00:12:58.783 --> 00:13:00.201
And so we tried

00:13:00.201 --> 00:13:01.619
to get his parents to understand

00:13:01.702 --> 00:13:02.787
and see the impacts that

00:13:02.787 --> 00:13:04.163
he is having on the building.

00:13:04.246 --> 00:13:06.999
I am trying to pay the bills,

00:13:06.999 --> 00:13:09.502
make ends meet, pay payroll.

00:13:09.585 --> 00:13:11.212
And the numbers aren't matching up,

00:13:11.295 --> 00:13:13.047
and we're just... the
money is not there

00:13:13.088 --> 00:13:14.256
to make it happen.

00:13:14.340 --> 00:13:17.259
I don't understand
some of the withdrawals,

00:13:17.343 --> 00:13:18.385
some of the money

00:13:18.385 --> 00:13:19.428
that is leaving the account.

00:13:19.512 --> 00:13:21.680
When I was looking
through all the accounts,

00:13:21.806 --> 00:13:22.765
I discovered that

00:13:22.807 --> 00:13:24.683
he's addicted to buying stuff.

00:13:25.643 --> 00:13:27.686
The 1938 Jag kit car.

00:13:27.812 --> 00:13:29.814
I'm not sure how payroll
will be taken care off,

00:13:29.855 --> 00:13:32.650
but he bought eight different vehicles.

00:13:32.691 --> 00:13:34.860
It's a Mr. Bean car,

00:13:34.902 --> 00:13:36.195
1955 DeSoto.

00:13:40.658 --> 00:13:43.536
John is a psychopathic narcissist.

00:13:43.828 --> 00:13:46.121
Like, you Google those words,

00:13:46.121 --> 00:13:47.748
that is him to a T.

00:13:47.873 --> 00:13:51.544
He is a self-consumed human being

00:13:51.585 --> 00:13:54.547
that will only look after himself.

00:13:54.839 --> 00:13:56.757
Everything in the Insectarium

00:13:56.757 --> 00:13:58.676
revolved around John Cambridge,

00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:01.971
and the heist was just
one more thing that he,

00:14:02.054 --> 00:14:03.889
I guess, thought that

00:14:03.889 --> 00:14:05.724
he could be the star of.

00:14:05.808 --> 00:14:07.560
Anything to get that publicity.

00:14:10.437 --> 00:14:13.065
John tends to, you know,
use people

00:14:13.148 --> 00:14:16.402
and like push people so hard.

00:14:17.278 --> 00:14:20.072
He doesn't appreciate people

00:14:20.072 --> 00:14:21.198
that do help him.

00:14:22.241 --> 00:14:23.617
If you're not appreciated,

00:14:23.659 --> 00:14:25.035
if you're not taken seriously,

00:14:25.119 --> 00:14:27.371
those kinds of things do bubble over.

00:14:28.289 --> 00:14:29.748
Does everybody understand

00:14:29.874 --> 00:14:32.042
that we're all working
towards the same mission?

00:14:32.084 --> 00:14:32.418
Well...

00:14:32.418 --> 00:14:33.252
Does everybody like...

00:14:33.252 --> 00:14:34.211
- Does everybody...
- I don't feel like

00:14:34.253 --> 00:14:35.921
we're on the same mission right now.

00:14:36.005 --> 00:14:38.424
We've lost all control and all, like, say

00:14:38.507 --> 00:14:39.466
in what's going on,

00:14:39.508 --> 00:14:41.051
and the mission has changed

00:14:41.093 --> 00:14:42.761
and the building has been destroyed.

00:14:43.804 --> 00:14:46.932
The education department is the department
that's making money

00:14:48.934 --> 00:14:51.478
the only thing other than government money

00:14:51.604 --> 00:14:53.898
that is money coming in
to the Insectarium.

00:14:55.149 --> 00:14:56.108
Hi, ladies and gentleman.

00:14:56.150 --> 00:14:58.110
My name is Trisha,

00:14:58.152 --> 00:15:01.572
and she is a rose
hair tarantula.

00:15:01.906 --> 00:15:04.325
I love what I do and I love teaching,

00:15:04.408 --> 00:15:06.118
and so seeing this money

00:15:06.160 --> 00:15:07.661
coming in from teaching

00:15:07.745 --> 00:15:09.955
and then leaving

00:15:09.997 --> 00:15:11.624
for mysterious items and things,

00:15:12.583 --> 00:15:14.251
that doesn't make you feel good at all.

00:15:16.295 --> 00:15:19.798
When are you gonna pay me
for prior to today?

00:15:21.300 --> 00:15:23.844
It's an absurd amount of money.

00:15:23.928 --> 00:15:25.179
What do I owe you money for?

00:15:26.096 --> 00:15:27.139
Last year?

00:15:27.181 --> 00:15:28.223
Just... I'm just...

00:15:28.307 --> 00:15:30.184
All of my time.

00:15:30.267 --> 00:15:32.061
You haven't given me anything

00:15:32.102 --> 00:15:33.354
relative to what I've done here.

00:15:34.647 --> 00:15:36.565
I'm not gonna have the ability

00:15:36.607 --> 00:15:38.400
to pay you lots of
money right now.

00:15:38.984 --> 00:15:40.527
John has absolutely

00:15:40.527 --> 00:15:43.322
destroyed not only myself,

00:15:43.405 --> 00:15:47.326
but he's destroyed
every other employee there.

00:15:47.368 --> 00:15:48.369
Enjoy.

00:15:49.662 --> 00:15:51.997
Nobody there

00:15:51.997 --> 00:15:53.666
wants to work for him.

00:15:53.791 --> 00:15:56.835
Yo, today, okay?

00:15:56.877 --> 00:15:58.170
Because I literally

00:15:58.170 --> 00:16:00.547
can't... I'm walking

00:16:00.589 --> 00:16:02.633
here, and everything
is against me.

00:16:02.675 --> 00:16:04.093
Don't say
everything is against you.

00:16:04.134 --> 00:16:06.679
Take ownership and responsibility for it.

00:16:11.892 --> 00:16:15.437
He has ...  me

00:16:15.479 --> 00:16:17.898
of what I believe in.

00:16:19.066 --> 00:16:21.068
You take care of the people

00:16:21.068 --> 00:16:21.735
that take care of you.

00:16:21.819 --> 00:16:23.070
First of all, thank
you very much

00:16:23.112 --> 00:16:24.780
for coming if you
are not scheduled.

00:16:24.863 --> 00:16:27.324
When I first started at the Insectarium,

00:16:27.408 --> 00:16:29.493
like, John wasn't the John he is now

00:16:30.619 --> 00:16:32.037
the manipulator,

00:16:33.163 --> 00:16:35.874
and that's probably
because of his parents.

00:16:37.209 --> 00:16:38.752
His mother is like fire

00:16:38.752 --> 00:16:40.295
and his father is like water,

00:16:41.213 --> 00:16:42.339
and they continued to save him

00:16:42.381 --> 00:16:45.384
from everything

00:16:45.509 --> 00:16:48.721
instead of letting him hit the reality

00:16:48.846 --> 00:16:50.889
of making a mistake in his life.

00:16:51.015 --> 00:16:52.349
In this past year,
to help the company

00:16:52.391 --> 00:16:55.019
continue to function,

00:16:55.060 --> 00:16:57.438
$65,000 has come

00:16:57.479 --> 00:16:59.064
in as a loan.

00:16:59.189 --> 00:17:00.816
How much have you loaned

00:17:00.816 --> 00:17:03.027
the company in the past year?

00:17:03.068 --> 00:17:05.779
When I was hired,

00:17:06.447 --> 00:17:07.948
or I'm sure when Trisha was hired,

00:17:08.073 --> 00:17:11.285
it was not under the
assumption then that

00:17:11.326 --> 00:17:12.786
we were going to
be part of funding it.

00:17:12.911 --> 00:17:16.165
His private income to this company,

00:17:16.248 --> 00:17:17.875
it is... it is not owed to this.

00:17:17.875 --> 00:17:19.460
It is his prerogative.

00:17:19.543 --> 00:17:21.045
- My private, personal.
- Yeah.

00:17:21.128 --> 00:17:23.630
My stocks
is not owed to this place either.

00:17:23.714 --> 00:17:25.257
But I'm doing it
to help this place.

00:17:25.257 --> 00:17:26.216
I'm simply saying...

00:17:26.300 --> 00:17:27.760
No, I don't want your money.

00:17:27.801 --> 00:17:28.844
There's no expectation
for your money.

00:17:28.844 --> 00:17:29.928
- Great, great.
- Okay, great.

00:17:29.970 --> 00:17:31.680
Okay. What did you gain by that?

00:17:31.764 --> 00:17:33.265
See how you just made a bunch of enemies?

00:17:33.265 --> 00:17:34.183
John, be patient.

00:17:34.224 --> 00:17:35.601
You can stop.
Step outside, okay?

00:17:35.684 --> 00:17:37.269
- No.
- Or...

00:17:37.352 --> 00:17:38.270
Or...

00:17:38.353 --> 00:17:40.606
Or I will just go
file a police report,

00:17:40.606 --> 00:17:42.524
and it can be known that way.

00:17:42.608 --> 00:17:45.027
I don't understand
where this line of question is going.

00:17:46.820 --> 00:17:47.863
Okay, come on.

00:17:47.905 --> 00:17:48.864
Please stay.

00:17:48.947 --> 00:17:49.948
Okay.

00:17:51.075 --> 00:17:52.910
Don't take that tone with me again.

00:17:52.951 --> 00:17:54.244
- Listen...
- Absolutely,

00:17:54.286 --> 00:17:56.288
do not take that tone with me again.

00:17:56.330 --> 00:17:58.415
Mom, I need you to calm down

00:17:58.415 --> 00:17:59.416
and conduct yourself

00:17:59.458 --> 00:18:00.542
with a level of professionalism.

00:18:00.584 --> 00:18:01.752
Okay, now you're talking...

00:18:01.794 --> 00:18:03.295
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- You're accusing me.

00:18:03.295 --> 00:18:04.630
You're accusing me

00:18:04.630 --> 00:18:05.631
and that's not right.

00:18:05.756 --> 00:18:07.466
Well, I'll let you
talk to the police.

00:18:07.591 --> 00:18:08.884
Jesus Christ.

00:18:13.639 --> 00:18:17.142
I think he had
that silver spoon his entire life.

00:18:17.976 --> 00:18:19.978
This isn't the first time he ...  up.

00:18:20.020 --> 00:18:21.146
This isn't the first time

00:18:21.146 --> 00:18:22.356
he has done somebody wrong.

00:18:24.358 --> 00:18:26.276
Do you regret testifying on his
behalf at the trial?

00:18:26.276 --> 00:18:29.196
Yes. I 100% regret testifying.

00:18:31.698 --> 00:18:33.700
Now, with everything
that's happened,

00:18:33.826 --> 00:18:34.910
do you think John
has been lying about

00:18:34.952 --> 00:18:36.870
how he got the Insectarium?

00:18:37.913 --> 00:18:38.914
It's black and white.

00:18:40.791 --> 00:18:44.753
John had a plan and took this

00:18:45.796 --> 00:18:47.131
all from Steve.

00:18:57.850 --> 00:18:59.518
Would it surprise you to learn

00:18:59.518 --> 00:19:01.186
that Chrissy has told us that

00:19:01.311 --> 00:19:04.857
she regrets testifying on John's behalf?

00:19:04.940 --> 00:19:07.359
No, I wouldn't be surprised.

00:19:07.484 --> 00:19:09.528
Can I give you this actually? Even better.

00:19:10.320 --> 00:19:11.530
He uses people.

00:19:12.573 --> 00:19:15.200
He does what he wants to do.

00:19:17.494 --> 00:19:19.037
Looking back,

00:19:19.037 --> 00:19:19.913
it was very obvious.

00:19:20.038 --> 00:19:21.915
Now, it wasn't
obvious at the time

00:19:21.957 --> 00:19:23.500
because I believe in people.

00:19:25.043 --> 00:19:27.838
This is my business for 46 years.

00:19:28.589 --> 00:19:31.341
John's game plan
was to get me out

00:19:31.383 --> 00:19:33.302
and to take the museum from me,

00:19:33.385 --> 00:19:35.971
and that's what he ended up doing.

00:19:38.557 --> 00:19:39.558
I just remember,

00:19:39.558 --> 00:19:42.561
before Steve was even gone,

00:19:42.644 --> 00:19:44.646
John absolutely bragged

00:19:44.730 --> 00:19:48.108
that he was going to be
running the Insectarium

00:19:48.192 --> 00:19:50.652
and it... would do

00:19:50.694 --> 00:19:52.362
anything to do it.

00:19:52.946 --> 00:19:56.283
It's safe to assume that

00:19:56.366 --> 00:19:58.285
this was an orchestrated effort.

00:19:59.077 --> 00:20:00.162
John had recruited his parents

00:20:00.204 --> 00:20:01.747
as confederates

00:20:01.830 --> 00:20:04.041
to take over the Insectarium.

00:20:07.419 --> 00:20:10.255
May of I think 2016,

00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:12.883
when I was trying to open up
a butterfly pavilion,

00:20:12.925 --> 00:20:14.927
I had to come up with the financing.

00:20:15.010 --> 00:20:17.596
He came to me and said, "Look, Steve",

00:20:17.721 --> 00:20:19.806
"I can get the building refinanced,

00:20:19.890 --> 00:20:21.683
but they don't want it in your name."

00:20:21.767 --> 00:20:22.434
And at that time,

00:20:22.476 --> 00:20:24.561
I had a little trouble
with my credit,

00:20:24.603 --> 00:20:25.896
so he had a better score.

00:20:25.938 --> 00:20:27.105
And I said, "Okay, fine."

00:20:27.689 --> 00:20:29.107
He was taking my shares

00:20:29.149 --> 00:20:30.359
for the sole purpose

00:20:30.442 --> 00:20:33.237
of refinancing the building.

00:20:34.196 --> 00:20:35.822
As soon as we get the financing,

00:20:35.948 --> 00:20:37.616
I get my shares and stock back.

00:20:37.699 --> 00:20:39.451
At least that's what I believed.

00:20:40.118 --> 00:20:42.329
Okay, things were going okay

00:20:42.371 --> 00:20:43.789
and, you know, no problems

00:20:46.166 --> 00:20:48.001
until I got two phone calls

00:20:48.001 --> 00:20:50.504
from two suppliers.

00:20:50.587 --> 00:20:51.296
And, "Hey, Steve,

00:20:51.338 --> 00:20:52.297
I'm sure you're just overworked,

00:20:52.339 --> 00:20:54.841
but we haven't been paid for
on this invoice."

00:20:54.925 --> 00:20:56.843
And then I looked at the deposits,

00:20:59.096 --> 00:21:01.974
and I was missing $19,000.

00:21:02.015 --> 00:21:04.685
So then I found out

00:21:04.768 --> 00:21:08.063
that they were making deposits

00:21:08.105 --> 00:21:09.856
over at Wells Fargo.

00:21:09.940 --> 00:21:11.400
And I said, "I want printouts."

00:21:11.483 --> 00:21:12.567
And they said, "Mr. Kanya,

00:21:12.609 --> 00:21:14.569
you're not an authorized
signature on it."

00:21:16.154 --> 00:21:18.907
I go back to the office.

00:21:19.491 --> 00:21:21.868
John comes in, and I said,

00:21:21.910 --> 00:21:23.161
"What's going on?

00:21:23.245 --> 00:21:25.789
I'm missing 18... $19,000."

00:21:25.831 --> 00:21:27.666
He says, well, F you, you know,

00:21:27.749 --> 00:21:29.501
and that's when things
started getting bad.

00:21:31.169 --> 00:21:32.921
I come back the next day,

00:21:32.963 --> 00:21:34.673
and my office is empty.

00:21:35.632 --> 00:21:37.509
John told if anybody
talks to Steve,

00:21:37.551 --> 00:21:38.176
they're fired.

00:21:39.011 --> 00:21:40.220
He is the new owner,

00:21:40.220 --> 00:21:41.179
and if I come in,

00:21:41.179 --> 00:21:42.347
I'm trespassing,

00:21:42.347 --> 00:21:43.807
and to call the police.

00:21:46.476 --> 00:21:47.936
I would come in the next day,

00:21:47.978 --> 00:21:49.688
the following day,
and everything else

00:21:49.771 --> 00:21:51.690
because it's my building.

00:21:52.482 --> 00:21:54.192
And he said, "Get the F out."

00:21:54.276 --> 00:21:57.112
He said, "Keep showing

00:21:57.154 --> 00:21:58.071
up, I'm gonna...
I'm gonna kill you."

00:21:58.155 --> 00:21:59.823
He said, "I'm gonna kill you."

00:22:00.490 --> 00:22:01.199
Then I went,

00:22:01.199 --> 00:22:03.368
contacted attorneys and stuff,

00:22:03.452 --> 00:22:04.995
and found out that
he Photoshopped

00:22:05.037 --> 00:22:07.456
my name on different documents

00:22:07.539 --> 00:22:09.041
with my signature,

00:22:09.041 --> 00:22:11.043
which of course
was Photoshopped.

00:22:13.003 --> 00:22:14.296
Did that come up in the trial?

00:22:14.379 --> 00:22:15.380
Absolutely.

00:22:16.715 --> 00:22:18.925
It turns out he was
taking my shares

00:22:18.925 --> 00:22:20.135
to take my company.

00:22:21.345 --> 00:22:23.722
And with that,
John went to court

00:22:23.764 --> 00:22:25.390
and won everything.

00:22:26.391 --> 00:22:28.393
Chrissy followed John.

00:22:29.019 --> 00:22:32.522
She testified that she's the one
that seen me steal money.

00:22:32.564 --> 00:22:34.232
He had them convinced that

00:22:34.232 --> 00:22:36.193
I was involved in the Kennedy assassination.

00:22:36.234 --> 00:22:37.903
I started the Vietnam War.

00:22:37.986 --> 00:22:38.987
That's what happened.

00:22:39.029 --> 00:22:40.030
He took it all.

00:22:41.239 --> 00:22:42.574
Everybody, every attorney,

00:22:42.574 --> 00:22:44.076
everybody that's read it said

00:22:44.159 --> 00:22:45.077
this thing has been planned

00:22:45.118 --> 00:22:46.787
for a long, long time.

00:22:58.590 --> 00:23:00.425
At this point in time,

00:23:00.467 --> 00:23:03.345
I do feel really bad for Steve.

00:23:03.428 --> 00:23:06.264
Uh, he had something
that he worked

00:23:06.306 --> 00:23:08.433
his whole life on
taken from him.

00:23:08.517 --> 00:23:12.145
Uh, just because somebody else wanted it

00:23:12.229 --> 00:23:13.688
and thought they could do it better.

00:23:14.231 --> 00:23:16.358
You are being removed
from this facility

00:23:16.441 --> 00:23:18.318
and from any administrative duties.

00:23:18.402 --> 00:23:19.861
He ruined my wife,

00:23:19.903 --> 00:23:22.364
me, and our children's lives.

00:23:22.656 --> 00:23:23.698
Call the police again.

00:23:24.783 --> 00:23:25.951
He deserves to be arrested.

00:23:27.452 --> 00:23:29.287
He deserves a lot worse than that.

00:23:40.298 --> 00:23:42.300
So I gotta fill in some holes

00:23:42.342 --> 00:23:44.594
from the first interview.

00:23:45.470 --> 00:23:46.346
We just got to get

00:23:46.471 --> 00:23:47.931
- the frigging facts straight.
- Yeah.

00:23:48.140 --> 00:23:49.516
Steve claims that

00:23:49.641 --> 00:23:51.476
you made like $18,000 to $19,000

00:23:51.518 --> 00:23:53.937
of unauthorized deposits

00:23:53.979 --> 00:23:55.564
into a Wells Fargo account

00:23:55.564 --> 00:23:57.023
that was your account.

00:23:57.482 --> 00:23:59.568
Like that's like a factual thing, right?

00:23:59.651 --> 00:24:00.986
I mean, it's one or the other.

00:24:00.986 --> 00:24:02.154
Is he mistaken

00:24:02.195 --> 00:24:03.655
or is he lying to try

00:24:03.655 --> 00:24:05.866
and get you in trouble? Like...

00:24:05.949 --> 00:24:07.659
Yes, he's definitely lying.

00:24:07.742 --> 00:24:08.994
But also how often,

00:24:08.994 --> 00:24:10.996
when someone tells you something

00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:12.664
and they seem confident

00:24:12.706 --> 00:24:13.665
and they seem knowledgeable,

00:24:13.748 --> 00:24:16.126
do you actually check their facts?

00:24:19.546 --> 00:24:20.589
Did you threaten to kill him

00:24:20.630 --> 00:24:22.007
if he kept showing up here?

00:24:22.090 --> 00:24:23.592
No, I did not... what?

00:24:23.675 --> 00:24:25.260
No, I didn't threaten to kill him.

00:24:28.346 --> 00:24:29.598
I wanna... I wanna move on

00:24:29.639 --> 00:24:31.308
to some other stuff.

00:24:31.349 --> 00:24:34.311
So, several employees have told us

00:24:34.352 --> 00:24:37.022
that money is being taken out

00:24:37.022 --> 00:24:38.523
of IBP accounts,

00:24:38.648 --> 00:24:41.359
going into your other businesses

00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:44.029
as well as paying
for personal items.

00:24:44.070 --> 00:24:45.864
That's a ridiculous accusation.

00:24:45.906 --> 00:24:47.574
I'm not sure how any employees

00:24:47.616 --> 00:24:49.284
would have access
to that information.

00:24:51.411 --> 00:24:52.704
Do we have coffee?

00:24:52.829 --> 00:24:55.207
Um, sure. Um, okay...

00:24:56.041 --> 00:24:59.169
Let's switch gears for a second.

00:25:03.965 --> 00:25:04.966
Thank you.

00:25:05.008 --> 00:25:07.802
So in this FOIA dump,

00:25:07.886 --> 00:25:10.222
there's a bunch of different affidavits

00:25:10.263 --> 00:25:11.932
from people,

00:25:12.015 --> 00:25:14.851
and one of them
is from Detective Zanetich.

00:25:15.435 --> 00:25:16.645
"I found multiple
inconsistencies

00:25:16.686 --> 00:25:17.896
in the statements

00:25:17.896 --> 00:25:19.105
of all parties involved

00:25:19.231 --> 00:25:20.565
"which led me to believe that

00:25:20.565 --> 00:25:21.274
the reported theft

00:25:21.316 --> 00:25:22.442
was exaggerated

00:25:22.526 --> 00:25:24.444
"either for the purpose
of insurance claims

00:25:24.528 --> 00:25:26.154
or for the benefit
of cash donations

00:25:26.196 --> 00:25:27.364
given to IBP."

00:25:29.324 --> 00:25:31.451
I disagree with Zanetich.

00:25:32.077 --> 00:25:34.746
So, I mean, Zanetich
obviously didn't really...

00:25:34.829 --> 00:25:35.372
Yeah.

00:25:35.413 --> 00:25:36.915
Find you credible, um,

00:25:37.040 --> 00:25:38.750
but there's a
lot of other stuff.

00:25:38.750 --> 00:25:40.418
I mean, here's
another affidavit.

00:25:40.544 --> 00:25:42.420
This person's an animal care person.

00:25:42.546 --> 00:25:43.421
"I was aware

00:25:43.421 --> 00:25:44.965
of the giant African land snail

00:25:45.090 --> 00:25:47.342
"that was kept in the rearing room at IBP,

00:25:47.425 --> 00:25:48.885
everyone knew it was there."

00:25:50.262 --> 00:25:51.596
I... no, I can only

00:25:51.638 --> 00:25:54.599
say this is false.

00:25:54.641 --> 00:25:56.059
It's tough... it's tough...

00:25:56.101 --> 00:25:57.435
Like it's hard to believe

00:25:57.561 --> 00:25:59.896
that all these people are making this up.

00:26:01.064 --> 00:26:03.316
Either it's all of these people

00:26:03.358 --> 00:26:04.943
who aren't being truthful

00:26:04.985 --> 00:26:07.821
or it's you who's not being truthful.

00:26:10.031 --> 00:26:11.449
I'm gonna take a break.

00:26:14.536 --> 00:26:15.954
We don't... we don't have
much left if you wanna just...

00:26:15.996 --> 00:26:17.289
That's unfortunate.

00:26:28.216 --> 00:26:29.926
Go ahead, John, and sit down.

00:26:36.182 --> 00:26:37.642
How do you feel that like

00:26:37.726 --> 00:26:40.020
you call the cops

00:26:40.061 --> 00:26:42.355
on Chris and Alison?

00:26:42.647 --> 00:26:43.815
Cops and FBI

00:26:43.857 --> 00:26:44.899
show up their house,

00:26:44.899 --> 00:26:46.443
threatened them years in jail.

00:26:46.484 --> 00:26:48.695
Things certainly

00:26:48.737 --> 00:26:50.447
got a lot more escalated

00:26:50.488 --> 00:26:53.199
than we ever anticipated,

00:26:54.284 --> 00:26:57.454
but I would not want to see

00:26:57.495 --> 00:27:00.832
Chris or Alison go to jail at all.

00:27:03.126 --> 00:27:04.836
It is what it is.

00:27:05.003 --> 00:27:06.046
But holy shit,

00:27:06.087 --> 00:27:09.341
did it spiral into
something big.

00:27:12.510 --> 00:27:14.638
How did all this impact your life?

00:27:15.180 --> 00:27:17.432
How did it affect you?

00:27:17.515 --> 00:27:20.268
Did it affect professional careers?

00:27:20.352 --> 00:27:23.021
So, my dream has always been

00:27:23.063 --> 00:27:25.231
to be a zookeeper,

00:27:25.732 --> 00:27:28.401
um, especially with invertebrates,

00:27:28.985 --> 00:27:30.779
and that was all taken from me.

00:27:32.781 --> 00:27:35.575
It literally... it ruined me.

00:27:38.078 --> 00:27:40.205
It's like we... we have

00:27:40.205 --> 00:27:42.082
this huge black
spot on our lives,

00:27:42.165 --> 00:27:45.752
and it just made me
feel constantly unsafe.

00:27:50.048 --> 00:27:52.050
And here's Life Magazine.

00:27:59.933 --> 00:28:01.559
Do I pray that I get it back?

00:28:01.601 --> 00:28:02.727
Yes.

00:28:02.852 --> 00:28:04.771
Do I hope that I get it back?

00:28:04.896 --> 00:28:06.106
Absolutely.

00:28:06.606 --> 00:28:08.024
If I had a really good lawyer,

00:28:08.066 --> 00:28:09.776
I'd probably have it back,

00:28:09.901 --> 00:28:11.695
but I can't afford a lawyer.

00:28:13.363 --> 00:28:15.031
All my income stopped.

00:28:16.241 --> 00:28:19.744
My son, who has a very good job,

00:28:20.245 --> 00:28:20.954
and my daughter,

00:28:20.995 --> 00:28:23.123
they help me out financially.

00:28:23.790 --> 00:28:25.417
How embarrassing is that?

00:28:28.044 --> 00:28:30.296
My house is approximately
12 minutes away

00:28:30.338 --> 00:28:32.590
from the Insectarium,

00:28:33.007 --> 00:28:35.093
so I drive by there all the time.

00:28:36.010 --> 00:28:38.388
And what I see there,

00:28:38.430 --> 00:28:40.265
it actually makes me sick.

00:28:42.976 --> 00:28:45.186
That used to be our back parking lot.

00:28:47.397 --> 00:28:48.940
I'm 67 years old.

00:28:49.023 --> 00:28:50.859
In 67 years,

00:28:52.610 --> 00:28:54.779
I personally have never hated anybody.

00:28:56.156 --> 00:28:57.907
I hate John.

00:29:03.580 --> 00:29:04.831
The case is inactive.

00:29:04.956 --> 00:29:06.791
If I got further
evidence of a crime,

00:29:06.833 --> 00:29:08.543
I would reopen it in a second.

00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:11.171
We could open it up for fraud

00:29:11.212 --> 00:29:12.589
or false statements to police.

00:29:12.630 --> 00:29:13.923
False reporting is a crime.

00:29:13.965 --> 00:29:15.759
It's very difficult to prove,

00:29:15.800 --> 00:29:16.468
but it is a crime.

00:29:18.261 --> 00:29:20.180
I reached out to the USDA,

00:29:20.305 --> 00:29:22.182
and they told me the investigation
is still active

00:29:22.182 --> 00:29:24.809
and it's just moving up
the federal chain of command.

00:29:24.851 --> 00:29:26.227
So they might also

00:29:26.227 --> 00:29:28.146
still be pursuing this case?

00:29:28.271 --> 00:29:29.314
They may be.

00:29:30.648 --> 00:29:31.983
I know the truth,

00:29:32.609 --> 00:29:33.651
but taking the truth

00:29:33.651 --> 00:29:34.903
to the judge is different.

00:29:34.986 --> 00:29:36.404
I know what happened.

00:29:37.030 --> 00:29:38.323
There's a difference between

00:29:38.323 --> 00:29:40.158
what I know and
what I can prove.

00:29:47.290 --> 00:29:49.876
What's a happy ending
to this story?

00:29:52.545 --> 00:29:54.547
I hope that all of the people

00:29:54.631 --> 00:29:58.343
who, uh, have been involved in this place

00:30:01.054 --> 00:30:02.806
will somehow take
that experience

00:30:02.806 --> 00:30:04.808
and use it to their
benefit in the future.

00:30:15.360 --> 00:30:16.611
It's, um... it's been

00:30:16.653 --> 00:30:20.323
quite a journey for sure.

00:30:22.450 --> 00:30:23.952
What's going on today?

00:30:24.035 --> 00:30:26.454
Um, today is my last day.

00:30:26.538 --> 00:30:27.664
Yep, yep, yep.

00:30:27.705 --> 00:30:29.999
So, realized how much the place

00:30:29.999 --> 00:30:32.210
was like taking from me,

00:30:32.335 --> 00:30:34.462
and I realized like I need to find a place

00:30:34.546 --> 00:30:37.715
that I have the ability
to grow and expand.

00:30:41.469 --> 00:30:43.012
I've been going back and forth about it

00:30:43.054 --> 00:30:46.140
because of the amount of stress and stuff,

00:30:46.224 --> 00:30:47.934
and it's one of the reasons

00:30:47.976 --> 00:30:49.686
why I can't be a
part of it anymore.

00:30:50.687 --> 00:30:51.896
All right.

00:30:51.980 --> 00:30:52.897
Am I really leaving?

00:30:52.939 --> 00:30:53.565
Is this happening?

00:30:53.565 --> 00:30:54.649
Okay.

00:30:54.732 --> 00:30:55.441
I love you again. Here.

00:30:55.483 --> 00:30:56.818
I love you guys.

00:30:56.901 --> 00:30:57.986
Love you again.

00:30:57.986 --> 00:30:59.070
It's for real.

00:30:59.153 --> 00:31:00.280
- You know that, okay?
- Yeah.

00:31:00.363 --> 00:31:02.240
I got your back with everything.

00:31:18.673 --> 00:31:20.633
IBP can be

00:31:20.633 --> 00:31:23.261
one of the most amazing museums.

00:31:24.095 --> 00:31:26.598
My most favorite experience

00:31:26.598 --> 00:31:28.349
is they would walk
through those doors,

00:31:28.933 --> 00:31:31.936
and they would walk into
this Butterfly Pavilion,

00:31:32.020 --> 00:31:33.146
and these butterflies

00:31:33.146 --> 00:31:34.939
would just be flying around,

00:31:35.023 --> 00:31:36.941
and they could see the beauty of nature.

00:31:37.775 --> 00:31:40.445
To be able to offer that to any child

00:31:40.528 --> 00:31:41.613
or even adult,

00:31:41.613 --> 00:31:43.197
the place was magical.

00:31:44.532 --> 00:31:46.701
We've done make a wish things for people

00:31:46.784 --> 00:31:48.953
that are on their last dying day

00:31:49.037 --> 00:31:51.497
to have that butterfly fly around them,

00:31:53.291 --> 00:31:54.626
and that is real.

00:31:55.501 --> 00:31:57.337
That's why I fight for that place.

00:32:00.506 --> 00:32:04.260
John is not going to destroy this place,

00:32:04.344 --> 00:32:07.972
and I am not done fighting.

00:32:18.483 --> 00:32:19.192
At this point,

00:32:19.192 --> 00:32:20.568
I've kind of made my choices,

00:32:20.652 --> 00:32:21.653
and I hope to not make

00:32:21.694 --> 00:32:23.988
the same mistakes that I did

00:32:24.072 --> 00:32:26.658
which led me to the end of this story.

00:32:28.826 --> 00:32:30.328
I wanna see this thing through,

00:32:30.411 --> 00:32:32.330
and I've worked hard to try

00:32:32.330 --> 00:32:35.249
and find a way to adapt.

00:32:38.294 --> 00:32:39.504
Insects are fascinating.

00:32:39.629 --> 00:32:42.131
They're able to adapt
to their environment.

00:32:42.173 --> 00:32:43.466
Yeah, there's tons up here.

00:32:44.550 --> 00:32:45.718
Whoa!

00:32:46.344 --> 00:32:48.554
Do you see them
just like coming off the tree?

00:32:50.682 --> 00:32:53.184
Is that trait of adaptability

00:32:53.226 --> 00:32:54.310
one that you revere?

00:32:54.394 --> 00:32:55.395
Absolutely.

00:32:55.478 --> 00:32:56.729
They're good role models.

00:32:58.940 --> 00:33:00.274
And I'm still here.

00:33:01.901 --> 00:33:04.278
So, yeah, I'm gonna keep fighting.
