Wisdom To Build Or Destroy

SPEAKER_03

Peace, peace, and welcome back. Welcome back, Freedman's Affairs Radio. I'm your host, your gracious host. Hopefully I'm gracious, Aaron Black, Aaron Vaughn Black to be exact, or fast black. I'm really starting to adapt that name because I really like it. But how are you folks on this glorious sunrise Tuesday, 6 a.m.? We are in the numerical order of wisdom, build, or destroy. And that bonds cipher. And the cipher is a complete 360-degree base, basis of where things are constructed. Right? We build on that. So peace to all of you, peace to all of the gods and herbs out there. Peace to everybody, the Christians, the Muslims, our Hebrew Israelite family. Peace to all every one of you. I love you all. Egyptologists and our people

Why Nolan Wells Still Matters

SPEAKER_03

that follow the mott. So, yeah, that's what we're dealing with today. That's what we're dealing with. Wisdom, right discernment, correct discernment to build what is positive and destroy that which is negative. Excuse me there. As you know, my regular, I'm sipping on some tonic. But uh yeah, family, family, let me turn the bed down a little bit. We are right back down in Mississippi again this week, and I know it's probably getting a little monotonous with this story, but as I've explained here on the on the program, that this Nolan Wells case is potentially bigger than the Camelo Anthony case. And I want to keep the pedal on the gas with this thing. Let me turn that down a little bit. Yeah. I want to keep the pedal on the gas for the simple fact is that this involves our children and their children. How we handle this going forward is gonna reveal a lot. There's gonna be a lot that come out in this because as you know, they did they they released the the autopsy from the second from the second um uh medical examiner in Washington DC. So let's let's let's get into it, family. Let's let's just get let's get get into it. If you've been following this case, the news this this week, this past week, the independent autopsy report of Nolan Wells out of Washington, D.C. was officially made public. And while some headlines are rushing to call it a closed chapter, the forensic reality says something completely different. So it so in today's program, we're gonna break down what the autopsy autopsy actually tells us. And we're gonna get in some other things. I'm not gonna spend too much time on this, but we're gonna get in some other things because each day it seems like something new is developing. Right? Today we're gonna break down that autopsy, what what it actually tells us, why the myth, the myth of a post-racial society continues to compromise safety, what it means for black parents raising kids in in majority white districts, why situation awareness, what I call the 10 on alert rule,

What “Undetermined” Actually Means

SPEAKER_03

isn't paranoia, it's protocol. So let's go, let's get into it. Alright. Let's start with the facts. The independent autopsy conducted by Dr. Roger Roger Mitchell, former former DC chief medical examiner, classif uh classified Nolan Wells cause uh and manner of death as undetermined. Now, for purposes that we all know, we want to clear up uh legal and medical jargon right out of the gate. Undetermined does not mean exoneration, it does not mean nothing happened. You got that? In forensic pathology, undetermined means the physical evidence is unavailable or was too limited to rule out foul play in or out. It's undetermined. And the reason why this Schula King was on Willie D and he spoke about this, and he said that because he his he has a family business that's been in his family a long time, he they're funeral directors, and it's it's uh it's a practice when you're doing an autopsy to remove the organs, the throat, because people were very upset that that that people that don't know the the practices of an undertaker or medical examiner, what what have you, people in that field, they don't understand they don't know or understand the the the uh protocol you're supposed to take out the throat, the lungs, the liver, the kidneys, the heart, uh the the spleen, the the the bladder, and different things like that to determine when you when you don't have a when you have something you because you got insurance companies that that may want to know what happened to the person for insurance purposes, or sometimes when you have a murder, somebody's been shot, they want to know how many times they've been shot, where did they hit any vital organs, and it's just a bunch. So it is practic practice for the medical examiner to remove these vital body parts. Now, once the family hired the independent medical examiner and and wanted the body to go up to Washington, DC for further examination for a second autopsy, they were supposed to they they usually put the remains of these these organs, these body parts, in a biohazard bag, seal it up, and it goes wherever the body goes, whether it's going to a funeral home or what have you, it's going to a second autopsy, that's that's where it goes. Let me get the bed back in here. That that's how it goes, right? Now, this man, uh Roger Mitchell, in this medical exam in Washington, D.C. could not conclusively rule out or rule in what happened to this young man. Because they sent the body, but they didn't send the bag, the biohazard bag with the with the lungs, the throat and the liver and kidneys and et cetera. They didn't send that. Why? And the parents were not notified because the the first medical examiner should have been in communication with the parent, with the parents at least, to see if that was their desire, because at that point it the family has more say so over what happens to those remains than anyone else. Once that medical exam is done with them with their uh procedure, the family word is written in stone at that point. This isn't any state, it's not it's not the selective states. Now this is they didn't send the remains, and they and it's also being reported that when they sent the body to Washington, the body was zipped up in the in the in the body bag and was face down, which is un uncommon, and there's no explanation as to why. I don't know if this is true. This is the reports we're getting, and and this is what we're doing. We're comment commentate making commentary on these reports. Now, let's uh let's let's let's stay on course with this. Why of these uh physical evidence are missing by the time the independent examination took place? The second autopsy revealed that key internal necks uh neck structures, including parts of the trachea, were unavailable for examination. On top of that, prior organ uh dissection blocked direct observation of the airway and lungs, making it impossible to uh definitively confirm or rule out drowning uh markers. Let's think about that. Within hours of the incident, local authorities uh lean toward no foul play. Yet a top forensic expert looks at the body later and finds incomplete physical evidence and unexplained red discoloration at the back of the skull. Now, somebody, I forget who it was, made some sense about those those discoloration at the base of his skull in the back of his neck. That is indicative of somebody holding you underwater. I'm not saying that's what happened. This is this is the vibe. This is the vibe, this is the the feeling you get from when you hear this. Now we're gonna

The Biohazard Bag That Never Arrived

SPEAKER_03

have to wait. We're gonna have to wait, family. We're gonna have to wait. But as I said, breaking news is coming out daily behind this. Let me put the uh let me see, can I put a filter on this thing on this microphone here? Hold on, give me one second. Now, I hope I hope that's a little no, it's not really better. As I turn the volume up, I can still hear that that air bleaming into the uh into the audio. I can hear maybe you can't hear it, but I can hear it. Uh this is why I like to keep the music playing so to distract you from it. But anyway, let me turn that down a little bit. Yeah, I took that filter back off. I get tired of that sometimes. But anyway, anyway. Now, alright. You know, this thing is is is really it's gonna be something because if my thinking is correct, family, like I said, this case is going to be bigger than the Camelo Ant. This is gonna be one of the bigger cases since like old uh OJ Simpson. Because if I if what I think happened actually happened, a lot of people are going down. A lot of people are gonna have to answer for this. So let's let's try to stay on course. I'm gonna try to keep you on course here. Hold on, let's get back to it. Okay, all right. Alright, we don't want to stay on that too long. Okay, you know, you got Ben Crump and these guys, the civil rights attorney, pointed out if the roles were reverse, if three black teenagers left a white teenager behind on an island, the investigative standard, the preservation of evidence, and the speed of interrogation would have been entirely different. The autopsy report doesn't close the book, it highlights the system's rush to default. As I said, they gonna this this thing, if this thing blows open the way I think it will, a lot of people gonna have to answer for this. Now, uh there's been talk of of audio. I heard the audio. I've heard the audio, and I'm gonna I'm gonna play a little something here. I'm gonna I'm gonna try to, we're gonna get back to the notes and stuff, my little notes, but I'm gonna play some audio here, and I want you to hear this. Because we're at the halfway point just about, and I want you to hear this. Hold on. Let me bring this in. Hold on. Uh-huh. I forgot to do this at the top. Give me one second, family. I'm gonna I'm gonna um get us some audio in here. Hold on. All right, yeah, we we can get it, we can get that audio in here now. Hold on. Give me one second. Hold on, I want you to hear something.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, let's get into what um she says uh well what she found by her mythology that she just broke down.

Red Flags In The Forensics

SPEAKER_03

Before I continue with this, this audio right here. Hold on. Before I continue with this, this uh audio, there's a sister in and uh shout out to her. Shout out to her. Her name is she's an audio engineer professional who's been in the game for for years. Uh she her name is Jeanette. Uh uh uh Jeanetta Brantley. Jeanetta Brantley, she did and she she did her own independent investigative work on this, and she sent it to uh her work into Ben Crump and someone else. So we want to give her uh a recognition here because this work was excellent. She did excellent work. Let hold on, let me hear this now. Fair use because this came from um this report here came from a sister named Um uh what's her name? Uh Tissa Tissa Tells. That's her YouTube channel, Tissa Tells. Hold on, but hear the audio. Hold on.

SPEAKER_01

Um, and also once we listen to this full, it's only 37 seconds. What she heard in the first 37 seconds was so traumatic. Let's make sure this woman does sound for a living. So I'm sure sound moves her the same way ice cream in my mouth moves me. She was born for it. She said it was too traumatic and overwhelming for what she heard. Let's listen to it. It's 37 seconds, then I'll rewind, and then we can start breaking it down again. Okay? Let's go. Sound up. Turn your volume all the way up if you can, because you're gonna want this, all right? And if you have the screen, please pay attention to the screen because there, I'm gonna uh zoom this in a little bit more. There is a lot on the screen that I think we need to pay attention to, okay? Um, all right, let's go.

If The Roles Were Reversed

SPEAKER_01

Here's how we're gonna start making excuses. Now, you heard it? We're gonna rewind it, right? You heard it. We are going to rewind it.

SPEAKER_03

Um first of all, family, I'm gonna take it back and give you content context of what this audio's about. This was the the distress call from the boat that those those teenagers was on that that rolling that Nolan Wells had rolled out with. Now, they said they was in a rush and they had to get back because they was having problems with the vessel that they were on, and they had to leave him because he refused to go with them. But from this audio family, now you can go to to Tissa Tell's and look this up yourself so you can hear it in clarity. I'm gonna want rewind this back to to uh Janetta Brantley and her grid credentials. Hold on. Give me one second.

SPEAKER_01

We are paid mercenaries that will they're for sale. They have the heart of a prostitute. They no no shade if you do sex work, but you get what I'm saying, right? Um they are mercenaries, okay? So that is the actual verified 30 seconds before the actual verified now. Let's get into the actual non-AI, non-hyped up, not adding anything else into it. Now, Yolanda on TikTok actually, because I'm not on Facebook, okay? Yolanda on TikTok actually said, um, and she found,

The Distress Call Audio Breakdown

SPEAKER_01

and I verified this, you know, I finally made a Facebook burner account, you know. Also, for all y'all on Facebook, literally pirating my videos, and I'm not making a penny from it. Now that I know my face is all over Facebook, and y'all make it when she's going.

SPEAKER_03

I hate when they do all of this fluff and carrying on. Just get on with the reporting. This is serious business here. But people run their channels and their their platforms the way they see fit. I don't like all of the foolishness and the giggling and stuff. I don't care for it. But anyway, back to it. Listen.

SPEAKER_01

Audio engineer Jeanetta Brantley isolates audio from CETO call Nolan Wells case. She's a professional audio engineer, and she uh isolates and enhances portions of the CTO dispatch call connected to the Nolan Wells case. Okay? You have to listen to the extracted audio and draw your own conclusions, okay? Now, Janetta, because that's the audio engineer, she's been in the game for a long time. She is very, very good at what she does. She actually outlines what her qualifications are and why you should listen to her. But you guys, I know what you're saying. Tisa, get to the audio. No, it's it's coming. It's like a minute away. But you have to listen to what she did, why she did it, and why she breaks it down. Because I believe she has gotten to the truth. And I believe she has forwarded this to Crump's team. I forwarded this to Punk Crump's team. This, I think, is something that Nolan's parents could use. So listen to this.

SPEAKER_05

Before I play this, I'm gonna quickly explain what I did, what you're looking at on the screen, and why I chose to approach this audio the way that I did as a professional.

SPEAKER_01

Wait, hold on. Who said you a jet? Listen, I'm just if you repost my videos, I don't care. I was making a half joke. The point is, I didn't know y'all liked me on Facebook, and I will be on Facebook, okay?

SPEAKER_05

I'm an audio engineer with experience in dialogue editing, dialogue cleanup, sound design, and post-production. I decided to work on that C to call using traditional audio processing techniques rather than relying on any AI voice separation or um AI enhancement. My goal was pretty much to preserve as much of the original recording as possible while making the quieter dialogue and background audio easier to hear. So I basically used techniques such as subtractive EQ, compression, gain adjustments, uh, noise frequency, I mean noise reduction, frequency isolation, and uh other traditional processing methods. So what I did was I separated Vicky, the C toe dispatcher, from Warren and the audio originating from the boat, so that I can concentrate more closely on what was happening behind and around Warren, um, pretty much on the boat. And I specifically chose not to rely on AI because aggressive AI enhancements and voice isolation tools can sometimes introduce artifacts and distort the speech or create ambiguity around the sounds that were originally present. Um, and for something this serious, I wanted my processing to remain as conservative as possible. You'll also notice time code and dialogue written on the side of the screen and pop up during each segment. That dialogue represents what I personally hear as an audio engineer while processing and repeatedly reviewing these sections. I'm pretty much providing it as a listening reference, not as a declaration that my interpretation is the only possible interpretation. And that's important. I want you to listen for yourself, use headphones if you have them, listen closely, and decide with your own ears what you believe is being said. And you can also return to the original unprocessed recording and compare directly with what you're hearing here. And that's because I'm working inside a professional post-production timeline, a DAW, a digital audio workstation, basically using SIMPI timecode, which in film that's displayed in hours, minutes, seconds, and frames. Film and TV timelines are completely different from timestamps that you see when you're watching regular videos or when you're watching a movie and you hit pause. So basically, the time code on the screen is there to identify the precise location within my working session, not to represent the elapsed timestamp displayed by the original video player. And I hope that makes sense. For this first video, I'm sharing only approximately 37 seconds of the call. I originally intended to continue much further, but once I separated the dispatcher from the boat and started concentrating exclusively on the background dialogue, what I believed I was hearing became extremely difficult for me to process emotionally.

SPEAKER_03

Did y'all hear that, family? Did y'all hear that? Did y'all hear that? I heard the the the um processed 37 seconds of what she her work is is very hard because if if my ears weren't deceiving me, that kid was murdered on that boat. He was murdered on that boat. But let's let's continue, family. Let's continue.

unknown

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_05

To take a mental break. But I wanted to release this portion because some of the details that stood out most to me occur very early in the call, like right at the top of the call.

What The Enhanced Audio Suggests

SPEAKER_05

And so I'm gonna let the audio play. Read my dis uh read my transcription if you want to reference, but don't allow it to determine what you hear. I want you to listen first, listen again, compare it with the original recording, and then judge it with your own ears. I hope this breakdown helps.

SPEAKER_01

And my Okay, so let's get into the meat of what she found out. Now, the thing is, I do not know Janetta. I do family.

SPEAKER_03

We're gonna skip over that. This this audio that I'm playing for you, type in in the search Jeanetta Brantley, uh Nolan Wells, and you can go to or you can go to to uh Tissa Tell's YouTube channel and get all of this. We gotta move fast because we're running out of time, and I don't like to keep you up here. I don't like to keep you, I like to let you go on with your day. There's a couple more things I want to say, and then I'm gonna let you hear something from uh hopefully Judge Mathis. Hold on, let me get back to my page and I'm I wanna make some statements because you know a lot of the the the coon boot the coon boot folks are saying that that Al Sharpton and Ben Crump are race hustlers, and all they're doing is is stirring up something about race, and it's always we black people, we always crying about something that's racial and everything. Family, we know the history of that state of Mississippi for years, decades of covering up uh violence to uh young black men and black men, period, young and old. We know the hit and the cover-up. And for all intents and purposes, that's what it seems like with this incident. But I wanna I just wanna say something to you. This is you know, some some of these coon coons uh made statements about black people want this to be a murder, and so they could pin it on these white boys, and they could say C and we could play victim. That's not what the the family deserves to know what happened to their son. So I don't I don't all you can miss me with all of that, all of that stuff about we're looking to stir up racial tensions. You know, I just want to say this to some of our uh parents who are who are raising children in in different uh mixed communities or even even predominantly white communities. Um, you know, when when when a child experiences micro microaggressions,

Teaching Kids Situational Literacy

SPEAKER_03

uh exclusion or unfair treatment in a majority white school, or you know, their natural instinct without uh context is to internalize it. What's wrong with me? Giving them by us giving them the uh historical social context shifts that frame to this is a reflection of a broader social dynamic, not my worth. Context acts as psychological armor, and we have to arm our children, and we don't arm them by telling them a bunch of lies. Uh situational literacy is a life skill family. Teaching our children about race isn't about teaching them about teaching them to live in fear or mistrust anyone. It's about teaching uh situational literacy, just like teaching a child how to navigate traffic or recognize physical danger, teaching them how to teaching them how power dynamics, uh, explicit bias and group behavior operates, gives them the tools to keep themselves safe and make informed choices about who they trust. Historical truths. Children who understand the history of this nation, both the structural oppression and the incredible history of black resistance, innovation, and culture develop a deeply grounded sense of identity. They they don't absorb false narratives about their place in society because they know the real story. And that's the best thing we can do to teach our children. I want you to hear something that uh I heard from Judge Mathis, and then we're gonna get ready to blow out of here, family. Because I like I said, I don't want to keep you, but I wanna I want you to hear something. Hold on. Let me let me see if I find it. Let me see if I find it. Uh okay, here it is. He let me see can I let me let me have that?

SPEAKER_04

They don't present it to his mother as a I'm not sure if I've seen it or not. I've been playing close attention, but either I've heard or and or seen that he was involved in an altercation there. And who knows what that altercation is about, once again, it's just Matthew's horn. Brothers, young black boys being raised in upper income white communities, nearly exclusively white, 90-95%. In many instances, your friends don't feel about you as you may feel about them. There is a racial barrier that exists and will always exist, and your realities are always going to be different, and you're always going to be looked at by your white friends differently. And so, to that extent,

Judge Mathis And Final Warnings

SPEAKER_04

he may not have understood that to be the case. He may have had trust for those he shouldn't have. He may have had a particular mindset that wasn't quite as uh uh rational as it should be when you're growing up in that environment. Sometimes you're irrational and you think you can do the same things they do and get away with it. No, you can't. Your black behind will go to jail and they'll go to counseling.

SPEAKER_03

That's it, family. That's it. We're gonna let you go. We're gonna let you go. And uh we're gonna keep out, we're gonna keep out uh foot on the gas with this thing. We we're not letting it go. We're not gonna let it go. And uh I want y'all to go in peace and keep the peace. I want y'all to love each other. I want y'all to respect each other, have patience most of all with each other. And we're gonna come back and rap on it some more next week. We might change courses. You know, we got a whole bunch of stories. This Ryan Claw getting fired from ESPN, but I didn't want to report on some Negro crying about him getting fired from the folks that are his open enemies. That said, family. That said, y'all take care. We're gonna creep out of here. Let's find a window we can get up out of here, and we'll see y'all next time. Until then, we love y'all.
