- 5:38Because
- 5:39you seem
- 5:41like a pretty calm, reasonable person.

- 5:51to change that.
- 5:55Did this happen for no reason at all?
- 5:59No.
- 6:00Okay. If I ever did anything, it was
- 6:03obviously for a reason. I don't do

- 6:10significant other. Yeah?
- 6:13Yeah?
- 6:14Doesn't You don't portray me as a person
- 6:16that would just do something for no
- 6:17reason.
- 6:22Can you tell me what the reason was?
- 6:28This man was
- 6:30uh
- 6:31he was masturbating at a bus stop close
- 6:34to the shelter.
- 6:36And there was three like there was an
- 6:40older female and a young female there in

- 7:24girl.
- 7:26And my girl was standing right next to
- 7:27me.
- 7:28And he lunged towards my girl.
- 7:31I hit him with my board as
- 7:33defense and he dropped. And as soon as
- 7:36he dropped, I like he just got knocked
- 7:38out. Like he didn't He wasn't bleeding.
- 7:41There was nothing. He just dropped cuz
- 7:43he was already high. Like you could tell
- 7:45he had just done meth season something.

- 7:56hitting him and I told him to stop and I
- 7:58just kept walking towards the shelter
- 8:00and I went back to the shelter.

- 18:58And like everybody was just telling me
- 19:00and
- 19:02I felt like I was pressured to do
- 19:03something. Where were you at when they
- 19:05were telling you this?
- 19:09Coming up to yes. Like before Justin
- 19:13or telling me
- 19:15um
- 19:16over in
- 19:19Chief Garry Park. So, we were just
- 19:20sitting there and chilling.
- 19:23And I just grabbed the guy.
- 19:25Justin was telling me about it.
- 19:27And then I
- 19:28>> So, you were in Chief Garry Park and
- 19:29they told you about it, these two
- 19:30females? Yeah, Justin
- 19:34I don't know who else was saying but
- 19:35there was a couple other people I think
- 19:37who told me about it.
- 19:38Okay.
- 19:40So, did Chief Garry Park and Yeah, I
- 19:43think and go look for him? No, I didn't
- 19:45even look for him at all.
- 19:46I just brushed it off. I'm like, well,
- 19:48that's
- 19:50And I started walking towards
- 19:52the shelter.
- 19:54And on my way to the shelter, I see
- 19:55Justin and he's like
- 19:58look at this guy. This is the guy who
- 20:00was jerking off.
- 20:02And just
- 20:04started begging
- 20:06begging it on, I guess, and
- 20:10Yeah.
- 20:11So, then
- 20:13I stepped up to the guy and I asked him
- 20:16if he was the one jerking off
- 20:18and
- 20:20I guess I called him a pedophile and
- 20:23then he started moving towards my girl.
- 20:25He said, "I'll let you stop me so I can
- 20:27almost [ __ ] stab you."
- 20:30And I hit him with my board.
- 20:35Yeah.
- 20:37Okay.
- 20:42And then what happened?
- 20:44I went back to the shelter.
- 20:46And Justin was stomping on him and you
- 20:47told him to stop? Yeah.
- 20:49Then what happened?
- 20:51I I literally told him to stop and then
- 20:55I turned around and started walking back
- 20:57towards the shelter. I escaped back to
- 20:58the shelter. I didn't know when he
- 21:00stopped. Um
- 21:01I got back to the shelter.
- 21:04It was just me and my girl just went to
- 21:06sleep.
- 21:11Okay.
- 21:13Um

- 37:02Following the recorded [music]
- 37:03interviews and continued investigative
- 37:05work, prosecutors moved forward with
- 37:07formal charges [music] tied to the
- 37:09assault that left Jamie Allen Weathers
- 37:11dead. Court proceedings advanced through
- 37:13Spokane [music] County Superior Court,
- 37:14where the case ultimately resolved
- 37:16without a trial.
- 37:17Public court reporting confirms that
- 37:19Quinton [music] P. Tindall later entered
- 37:20a guilty plea to second-degree murder.
- 37:23He was sentenced to 123 months in
- 37:25prison,
- 37:26>> [music]
- 37:26>> followed by 3 years of community
- 37:27custody.
- 37:29The outcome reflected how investigators
- 37:31and prosecutors ultimately framed the
- 37:32case, that the blunt force assault was
- 37:35the legal cause of Weathers' death.
- 37:37What began as a late-night response to
- 37:39an unconscious [music] man in a parking
- 37:41lot became a homicide prosecution that
- 37:43ended with a conviction and a prison
- 37:45sentence. The legal system concluded its
- 37:47process,
- 37:48>> [music]
- 37:48>> and the record now stands as a matter of
- 37:50public court history.
