00:02:18,089 --> 00:02:16,239 yes Bruce panic is currently facing his 58 00:02:19,770 --> 00:02:18,099 own charges in Los Angeles for 59 00:02:21,390 --> 00:02:19,780 possession of child pornography

wanted list in 63 00:02:30,479 --> 00:02:28,630 Las Vegas was arrested in Las Vegas so 64 00:02:32,820 --> 00:02:30,489 you have an unbelievable family tragedy 65 00:02:34,890 --> 00:02:32,830 here you've got clearly some mental 66 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:34,900 health issues you've got children being 67 00:02:38,339 --> 00:02:36,730 raised without a father they learned for 68 00:02:40,890 --> 00:02:38,349 the first time that they even have a 69 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:40,900 father when they're about 20 years old 70 00:02:44,580 --> 00:02:42,250 mother had raised him to believe that he 71 00:02:46,559 --> 00:02:44,590 was dead talk about other news being 72 00:02:47,789 --> 00:02:46,569 made he shared with you and I want to 73 00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:47,799 listen to this clip I think it's really 74 00:02:53,210 --> 00:02:50,110 instructive too is when he learned of 75 00:02:56,220 --> 00:02:53,220 the massacre let's listen to that clip I 76 00:02:58,350 --> 00:02:56,230 saw that you know that CNN and every 77 00:03:02,130 --> 00:02:58,360 channel had does this shooting and I 78 00:03:07,229 --> 00:03:02,140 looked again and they said Stefan 79 00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:07,239 paddock and I said why so I called my 80 00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:09,760 mom and my mom answered the phone and I 81 00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:13,209 said is that Steve and she said I guess 82 00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:16,930 so and I asked her was was he sick like 83 00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:26,560 me he broke down what do you think he 84 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:28,870 meant by that well you know I followed 85 00:03:31,710 --> 00:03:30,370 up with him on that when you talked 86 00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:31,720 about a sickness because we would all 87 00:03:35,580 --> 00:03:32,950 assume that he's talking about a mental 88 00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:35,590 illness yeah in the family he is 89 00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:37,630 suffering from spinal stenosis in fact 90 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:39,310 he's in a wheelchair Bruce's right now 91 00:03:43,559 --> 00:03:41,410 and a big scar and his neck and he's due 92 00:03:45,539 --> 00:03:43,569 for surgery soon his brother had back 93 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:45,549 surgery when he was younger so what he 94 00:03:49,229 --> 00:03:47,650 says he was referring to is that hey if 95 00:03:51,379 --> 00:03:49,239 my brother Steven was in the kind of 96 00:03:55,170 --> 00:03:51,389 pain that I'm in I could understand 97 00:03:57,330 --> 00:03:55,180 wanting to commit suicide I the nasib 98 00:04:00,150 --> 00:03:57,340 okay but he didn't do that he didn't do 99 00:04:01,979 --> 00:04:00,160 that did more but murder suicides are 100 00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:01,989 something that we see very often 101 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:06,489 why this occurs suicide is not very very 102 00:04:09,930 --> 00:04:08,170 unique and hence the reason why the FBI 103 00:04:13,710 --> 00:04:09,940 is still you know in the middle of their 104 00:04:16,050 --> 00:04:13,720 investigation because this is obviously 105 00:04:18,330 --> 00:04:16,060 a man who's clearly troubled you saw him 106 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:18,340 break down talking about what happened 107 00:04:23,460 --> 00:04:20,650 you took the pain in their family he 108 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:23,470 says also that he's sorry that this all 109 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:25,130 happened can we play that clip 110 00:04:33,850 --> 00:04:30,650 I don't know how to say I'm sorry enough 111 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:33,860 for what's happened I had no control 112 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:38,450 over it I wish I would have been in 113 00:04:42,670 --> 00:04:40,490 touch with him more so I could have had 114 00:04:47,170 --> 00:04:42,680 control over and stopped it it's about 115 00:04:51,460 --> 00:04:47,180 as far as I can go I believe maybe if I 116 00:04:56,170 --> 00:04:51,470 was there in his life that I could have 117 00:05:06,160 --> 00:04:56,180 talked some sense into him but people 118 00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:06,170 like that did live for themselves are 119 00:05:12,220 --> 00:05:10,880 pretty much unreachable Jim you sat with 120 00:05:15,340 --> 00:05:12,230 him for over an hour what was your 121 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:15,350 takeaway of your time with with him well 122 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:19,370 he was pretty emotional and it clearly 123 00:05:23,020 --> 00:05:21,410 wanted to apologize to the victims to be 124 00:05:25,090 --> 00:05:23,030 part of a family like this to be 125 00:05:27,010 --> 00:05:25,100 struggling like this I think he finally 126 00:05:29,650 --> 00:05:27,020 wanted to speak out and let the victims 127 00:05:31,090 --> 00:05:29,660 know how he felt he said his mother did 128 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:31,100 not want him to do the interview and 129 00:05:34,270 --> 00:05:33,170 mother refuses to talk about the 130 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:34,280 shooting can't bring it up with her 131 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:36,170 she's 90 years old he
