The speaker is in Bradenton, Florida and thanks a friend named Dave for his podcast. They discuss being summoned for a trial in Manatee County, Florida, related to an incident involving a neighbor. The speaker claims to have no knowledge of the situation and doesn't want to be involved. They express frustration about being dragged into the trial and emphasize that they mind their own business. The speaker is afraid of the neighbor involved in the incident and seeks advice on how to handle the situation. Good morning, and thank you for stopping by to my podcast called Off the Cuff. I'm here this morning in Bradenton, Florida. It is now 10.52 a.m., temperature is 76 degrees, and it's mostly sunny. I am here to discuss a couple of things, but first I want to say thank you to another podcast friend. I listened to him several times. His name is Dave Canyon. His podcast is Dumbing It Down with Dave. I think he is awesome. I think you guys ought to listen to him. I think he's wonderful. He's funny. He talks about anything. He travels from his home to work, from work to home. He'll make you laugh. He'll make you wonder. I think his podcast helps him stay awake for his travel or his commute from his job to home or his home to his job, but anyhow, I think he's pretty cool. Love you, Dave. So here is my issues for today. I have been summoned for a trial. It's in Manatee County here in Bradenton, Florida, and I have become involved with a situation that I want nothing to do with. I am on a standby subpoena that says I am required to be available for a two-week trial, trial period, beginning April 3rd. That's only five days from now. I do not have time to go out and go shopping for an outfit for this trial. It's one of the things that really irks me. They don't give you time to go shopping. My God. You got to look good, right, for the judge? Ha ha. So anyhow, how this came about was a couple of years ago, we had an incident in the neighborhood where a motorcycle rider kept going up and down our street, irritating people. Okay. This was to really bother one of our neighborhood drug houses, I guess. But it didn't bother them so much, but it bothered another neighbor. And it bothered them so much that they went down to this person's home and decided to wail the bejeebers out of them. Yep. That's what he did. Wailed the bejeebers out of them and took his guns off his person. Took the guns to the sheriff's department. He ended up in jail for the night. Now we're going to court. Just to let you know, I never saw a thing. All of this has been rumored to me. I know nothing. I don't want to know anything. But here I am, involved. Why? Because I thought I'd be nice in just giving a character reference to his first attorney. Okay? This guy has had so many attorneys, I don't know which attorney I'm going to go talk to. But apparently he has a public attorney right now. So, two weeks ago, I and a couple of neighbors got summoned to a deposition. By the state attorney. Okay? Both attorneys were there. His attorney didn't say much, but the state attorney asked a lot of questions. They asked me what my relationship was with this particular person. I said he was my neighbor. What's your relationship? He's my neighbor. Yes, but what is your relationship? He is my neighbor. No relationship, no hanky-panky, no nothing. I know what his name is, that's it. What do you know about the situation? What do I know, or what do you think I know? What do you know? I said absolutely nothing. How do you know? I said, listen, I have been told what supposedly happened. I was not there. I did not see anything. My word is nil. It's rumored. It was told to me second-hand. Okay? I know nothing. I don't want to know anything. I've told this person I don't want to know anything. I do not want to be involved. I didn't see anything. I don't even know this person that got beat up what he looks like, because whenever he went by the house, he had his helmet on. I don't even know what the bike looks like. He was going by too fast. Okay? Not my business. Yeah, it was aggravating. Yeah, it pissed me off. But I'm not going to go down to the dude's house and wreck his brains. I'm not going to steal his guns. I'm going to leave it alone. Let the cops figure it out. That's me. I mind my own business. I stay in my house with my little dog, Bentley. That's it. Don't involve me in shit I don't need to be involved with. You didn't invite me into your business. I'm not getting into your business. Leave me out of it. So where am I at today? I am here being summoned to the court. Why? I don't know. Because I told him I don't know anything. I don't want to know anything. I don't want to know anything. Nothing. Leave me out of it. But here I go. I've got to get involved because my neighbor thinks I should. He thinks I should back him up. Uh-uh. No. No way. Uh-uh. Nope. Uh-uh. I don't go into your business. You stay out of mine. No. The only thing I told this dude was there's too much testosterone going on around here. High school crap. Okay? Don't like it. Don't care for it. But I'm being dragged into it. I am being dragged into it. Somebody help me here. Somebody really help me here. I just don't like it. My neighbor across the street. She was out of town. In fact, she was out of the country. She's dragged into it. Why don't they get the neighbors that were across the street who actually saw something to go to court? They saw it. I didn't. Why can't they go? Somebody got an answer for that one too? Just the system. Why ask me? I didn't see it. The guy that's going to court. He hasn't spoken to me in two years. Till recently. Why? Because I told him I didn't want to be put in the middle. Which he did. He dragged me into it. He started complaining. He says, you should be backing me up. No. I shouldn't be backing you up. Because it's not my business. Leave me alone. It's your business. Not mine. But I did it for the... No, you didn't. Because number one, I wouldn't have gone down there. I would have called the cops. But no, you had to go down there and really show yourself. Had to show your testosterone. Had to show off. Had to be the man. Couldn't leave it alone. Couldn't call the cops, could ya? Nope. Had to show yourself. So now, here I am. Told him to leave me alone. Don't put me in the middle of it. So he didn't talk to me. But now, he's got his lawyer subpoenaing me. Why? He hasn't talked to me in two years. Until now. So I went to this deposition. Said my piece. Said I don't know why I'm here. Beats me. The state attorney asks me all these questions. What's my relationship to this dude? Said he's my neighbor. That's it. Well, what's your... No relationship. He hasn't talked to me in two years. There's no relationship. I know his name. I know who he is. That's it. I know what his job is. That's it. I don't go to his house. I don't go in his house. In fact, I'm kind of afraid of him. I don't even walk my dog on his side of the street. I'm afraid the dude's gonna come out and shoot me. Because my dog piddled on his yard. Nope. Ain't doing it. Ain't gonna cause no trouble. So, they asked me, What do you think? What am I supposed to think? The dude scares me. Well, do you think he needs some kind of help? Yeah, he needs help. Do you think he needs anger management? Yes. Also think he needs to pay for what he's done. Do you think he needs some kind of mental help? Yes. He needs to see somebody. He needs medication too. Then again, I heard he was on medication and he quit taking the pills. That's why he went down there and showed himself. Again, hearsay. I don't know. Hearsay. It's all hearsay. Second hand. What do I know? Nothing. So, why am I going? Somebody help me. Please. Help me get out of this. I don't want to go. My neighbor doesn't want to go. She wasn't even here. Another neighbor. He went to the deposition. He said the dude went to his house and told him he was going to do it. Hello? Come on. This guy is crazy. If I didn't need a place to stay, I wouldn't be living here. I'd be boarding up my windows. I'd be putting up one of those barbed wire fences. I'd be having a security guard walking around my house just so the dude wouldn't even come near. I fear. I fear every time I walk up the street. If I walk over on the other side. I'm afraid that he's going to shoot me and the dog. My dog even barks at him. My dog will bark at him just looking out the window. My dog just don't bark at anybody. He sees him and he just goes off on a rampage. If you guys can answer me this or give me any kind of suggestions. Text me. Email me. Let me know. Give me an idea on what I can do. I mean. I'm totally lost at this. Why are they having me come down there for nothing? Okay. That's it for today. I don't have anything else. So next time we'll give you another call on something else to talk about. Okay? Thanks for listening. I enjoyed this. Have a good day. Bye.
