0:00Just before we get into this video, just
0:01want to say that there are parts in
0:04these interviews that are pretty
0:06graphic. And I'd just like to warn you
0:10just before you get too far into it. The
0:12two people that I want to look at
0:14tonight is Tommy Lyn Cells and Diane DS.
0:19Both of them murderers. One a serial
0:22killer, the other
0:25murdered her own children. Well,
0:28attempted. We'll get into that in a
0:30minute. They're not aware in these
0:31interviews of how they sound or the
0:34things that they're saying are so
0:36ludicrous and that's the most
0:38frightening thing. Now, it's fair to say
0:41that look at tonight is Tommy Lyn Cells
0:44did have a very bad, cruel, neglected
0:49upbringing, not only from getting into
0:52his teens, but well before even as a
0:55toddler, he was passed about. By the
0:57time he was 7 years old, he was drinking
0:59alcohol.
1:01Uh not long after this, he was also
1:05um he was hanging out with a fellow
1:07called Willie Clark who was doing things
1:11to him that should not have been
1:13happening. Um and his mother did not
1:16really put a stop to this very much. I
1:18think it appears that she may have had
1:21an inkling about this and we don't know
1:23whe what the reason for this was why she
1:26didn't really put a stop to it. However,
1:28she didn't. But he was actually passed
1:32to an aunt, back from his aunt, back to
1:35his mother, then to his grandmother,
1:37back to his mother, then his mother went
1:40off and left him. She took the other
1:42kids with her and left him because he
1:45was constantly getting in trouble. From
1:46the age of seven, he was drinking
1:49alcohol. So he was a handful. However,
1:53he was neglected and he was left. So by
1:56the time Tommy was 10, he was on
1:58narcotics. His mother had abandoned him
2:01well and truly by this time, took the
2:03other four children and he was staying
2:05with his grandmother. He was also on the
2:07streets as well sometimes. He was just
2:09coming and going and he started to live
2:12a nomadic lifestyle. You find this is
2:15pretty common with serial killers
2:16actually. Um, I mean, Tommy Lynn cells,
2:21he went uh Missouri,
2:25uh, Atlanta, New York, Arizona, Florida,
2:30he went all over. That was the same with
2:32um, Samuel Little, if you remember, he
2:36had a similar upbringing and he lived a
2:40nomadic lifestyle. He and he traveled
2:43from state to state. So, whilst Al was
2:45incarcerated, he was interviewed. I must
2:48warn you that there's parts of this
2:50interview that are pretty graphic. Um,
2:56if I do get if it does get demonetized
2:59and it disappears, this um I am going to
3:03put it on my Patreon. Um, but
3:07yeah, brace yourself. where I sat down
3:09with a 45year-old man who could arguably
3:13have one of the baddest brains in
3:15America.
3:16The first time I did a shot of dope, it
3:19was the best feeling I ever had in my
3:21life. And the first time I killed
3:24somebody, it was such a rush.
3:28And it was just like that shot.
3:31Every time I did it,
3:35it was that rush again. and I started
3:38chasing that high.
3:40Tommy Lin Cells was once a little boy
3:42growing up in St. Louis, but around the
3:44age of 14, he says he became addicted to
3:48killing. How many people have you
3:50killed?
3:52Lord, I don't know.
3:56I I don't know.
3:5710?
3:59Yeah.
4:0020?
4:01Probably.
4:0230.
4:03It's up there.
4:0450. But see you, I'm not Billy the kid
4:09and making notches on on my my holster.
4:13So
4:15I know it's been a lot. I am hatred.
4:17When you look at me, you look at hate.
4:19When I look at you, I look at hate.
4:21When you look at me, you know what hate
4:23is. I don't know what love is. Two words
4:26I don't like to use is love and sorry
4:29because I'm about hate. Vicious cycle. I
4:32couldn't help but be grateful for the
4:34glass between us.
4:36I don't have no feelings
4:39no more. No emotion, no.
4:42I like to watch the eyes fade, the pupil
4:46fade.
4:47What do you like about that?
4:49It It's just like setting their soul
4:52free.
4:53What are you thinking and feeling when
4:57you kill someone?
4:58It's just like that drug. I'm after that
5:01drug again. I I don't have a on and off
5:04switch. I'm just after that drug. I'm
5:08after that feeling.
5:10I wonder if you could just tell me what
5:12happened as you were killing her. Did
5:14she Did she give birth to a baby?
5:20You know, you're pushing your luck.
5:22I'm sorry.
5:23Let's Let's not get Let's not get into
5:26blood and guts because because that's
5:28what you're trying to get into. You also
5:30killed children.
5:33Some got killed. Yes.
5:35Now, why would that happen?
5:37I didn't want them to live through the
5:39pain I live through.
5:41The young girl named Crystal,
5:45she came to her fate by having a
5:48sleepover at her friends
5:50um where Tommy cells was was staying.
5:54She was so brave, that little girl, and
5:56so smart. She actually pretended that
6:00she was dead when he did what he did to
6:03her. Um, and with that, she actually ran
6:08ran and ran in that state to her
6:11neighbors and wrote down I'll put the
6:14letter up. Actually wrote down what had
6:17happened. It was because of that little
6:19girl's bravery, Crystal's bravery, that
6:21Tommy Linels was incarcerated. without
6:25her, he'd have carried on. But because
6:29she she acted like she was dead and then
6:31she ran and ran and ran and then wrote
6:33down everything,
6:36then that's how they got it.
6:38After what I had seen him do, he had no
6:40emotion in his eyes.
6:53That emptiness evident as we spoke.
6:56So, what if I called you something that
6:58you didn't like and you'd think about
7:00killing me?
7:02Well, if we was in a fight and
7:07you know, get your head down in the
7:09concrete, then, you know, so be it. But
7:13what happens when my head goes down to
7:14the concrete?
7:15Well, what do you think happened? It
7:17cracks like a coconut.
7:21And then what happens?
7:24You die.
7:26But for some of the families of his
7:28victims, ending that brain function was
7:30what was important. Cells was on death
7:33row for more than 13 years. The most
7:35recent delay over the exact makeup of
7:38the drug cocktail that would be used to
7:40kill him. Cells said the pain of the
7:43death penalty pad in comparison to his
7:47life. I suffer more here than I'll ever
7:51suffer in that grave.
7:56I have to live with it every day. Now,
8:00when they kill me, at least I'll be free
8:03then.
8:04Last night, Tommy Linell's final appeal
8:07was rejected. He was executed at 6:27
8:10p.m.
8:11When asked if he wanted to make a last
8:13statement, uh, he just simply answered
8:15no. For the family of Katie Harris, it
8:18was long overdue.
8:19Now it's a day of
8:21closure and celebration that justice has
8:24been served.
8:24So yes, Cells did receive the death
8:26sentence. What I don't understand with
8:27this is that he did say, you heard it in
8:30that interview that he did say that um
8:33you know if that happened then he'd be
8:36away from all this and um more or less
8:40he'd rest in peace and he wouldn't have
8:42to wake up uh thinking about it every
8:45day. I don't think for one minute he
8:47woke up thinking about it every day
8:49basically because 10 minutes before he
8:51was laughing about what he did and what
8:54he can do and what he's capable of his
8:55capabilities in quite a lot of these
8:58crimes. Um whether that was with
9:03without going into too too much detail
9:05no matter who that was to he was very
9:09clear on what he's capable of doing. So,
9:13um I don't believe for a minute that he
9:16that that was true that he felt that at
9:18least he would be out of it and have to
9:20think about it every day because the
9:22other thing is he'd also put in an
9:24appeal. So, if that was the case, why
9:26put in an appeal?
9:28Um and he got the easy way out in a lot
9:31of respect because he literally um got
9:34an injection and went to sleep. more or
9:36less said that within a few minutes he
9:38was snoring and 13 minutes later um he
9:42was pronounced dead. So he got off
9:45lightly in comparison to what a lot of
9:49his victims went through. Anyway, let's
9:52move on to the next one. If I can just
9:54jump in here and just ask that um only
9:5850% of people that watch the videos
10:00actually press the like button. Um, if
10:03you could just change that for me and
10:05just hit that tiger like button down
10:07there, take you one second, I really do
10:10appreciate it because it will help the
10:11channel out. Thank you. I'm going to let
10:13Diane DS describe everything that she
10:16did with her children, her family, but
10:18it was basically for her to be with
10:21another man
10:23rather than a husband. So, this was for
10:26love. the blood that just kept gushing
10:28out of her mouth and and
10:30she tried to wipe her whole family out
10:32because a fellow that that she was
10:34seeing didn't want a ready-made family.
10:38Elizabeth Diane Downs says the family
10:40was on a sightseeing trip when a
10:42shaggyhaired stranger flagged her down
10:44and demanded her car. She refused and
10:47the asalant shot Downs and her children
10:49at close range with a 22 caliber gun.
10:529-year-old Christy was shot first
10:54through the hand into the chest as she
10:56tried to protect herself. 3-year-old
10:59Danny was shot in the back and is now
11:01paralyzed from the waist down.
11:037-year-old Cheryl was shot twice from
11:05behind and died on the way to the
11:07hospital. The gun was never found and
11:09neither was the shaggyhaired stranger.
11:11Police started suspecting DS as the
11:13culprit. The prosecution claims her
11:16obsessive love for an ex-boyfriend in
11:18Arizona was her motive. The state says
11:21Downs felt her children were getting in
11:23the way and preventing a romantic
11:25relationship with that former boyfriend.
11:27I have been through that night so many
11:29times. I've even been through it with my
11:31psychologist. It's very hard. It's very
11:33tearful. There are a lot of memories
11:35that
11:37um
11:39I don't know a lot of people when
11:42something traumatic happens to them,
11:43they suppress it immediately. I kept
11:47those memories because I knew that I was
11:49the only person that was going to be
11:51able to tell them what happened when we
11:52got to the hospital. And when I got
11:54there, the first thing I said was call
11:56the doctors. Second thing was the blood
11:58type. Third thing was call the cops
12:00because they've got to they've got to
12:01find him. And so I had to remember as
12:05much as I could remember. The other
12:06thing that brought it to light that
12:08Diane was involved in this was because
12:10when she was going to the hospital to
12:12see her children, um, one of one of the
12:15the little girls readings on the on the
12:18monitors was going off the chart.
12:20They're experienced and they would see
12:22the opposite effect. When a child hears
12:24a parent, a mom or a father, everything
12:27settles down and they become more
12:29relaxed. But in this case, everything
12:32was going off the RTER scale for them.
12:34And that is what highlighted it even
12:36more. Obviously, her story didn't add up
12:39anyway, but they had to keep her away
12:42from them children. They knew that once
12:44that had started happening, they just
12:46knew that they couldn't let her near the
12:47kids.
12:48When this man shot my daughter, my first
12:50reaction was to snap back to my
12:52childhood, to the pain that had happened
12:55to me back then, my marriage, my
12:58entrapment by society. This man was
13:00bigger than me. He was stronger than me.
13:01He had more power because he had a gun.
13:04He was in control and I was not. And I
13:07had there was nothing I could do. And I
13:09stood there and I looked at Christy
13:10reaching and the blood that just kept
13:14gushing out of her mouth and and I what
13:18do you do?
13:19You just stand there trapped and then
13:23and then the gun kept firing and firing
13:25and firing and it it it made it was
13:27monotonous. It just kept going. It was
13:30like a slow motion picture.
13:33And then he swung around towards me and
13:36I and this is something that I did not
13:38recall when I was explaining to the cops
13:41because there it was it wasn't like a
13:43movie when I was telling them. I was
13:44telling them what happened the important
13:46details. He shot my kids. I pushed him.
13:47I ran and when he swung around, he was
13:51pointing. When he swung around, it hit
13:53the tips of my fingers. The gun hit the
13:55tips of my fingers and that snapped me
13:56and I went, "Wait a minute. I'm not
13:59trapped by society. I don't care if he
14:01is bigger. If I stand here and I say,
14:05"Yeah, here. Take the keys. I mean,
14:07there's nothing I can do. You win
14:08because you have the gun. My kids are
14:10gonna die." And I'm not going to let my
14:13kids die. And so instead of giving him
14:15the keys, I fainted throwing the keys.
14:19Everybody says, "You sure were lucky."
14:21Well, I don't feel very lucky. I
14:23couldn't tie my damn shoes for about two
14:25months. It is very painful. It is still
14:27painful. I have a steel plate in my arm.
14:29I will for a year and a half. the the
14:32scar is going to be there forever. I'm
14:34going to remember that night for the
14:35rest of my life whether I want to or
14:36not. I don't think I was very lucky. I
14:39think my kids were lucky. If I had been
14:41shot the way they were, we all would
14:43have died except maybe Danny. What do I
14:45see most is blood coming out of
14:47Christiey's mouth because that's what I
14:49see. Um I I can't see Danny and I can't
14:53see Sher. Sherry was laying on the floor
14:56and driving to the hospital. I don't
14:59know the sounds that were made at the
15:00initial shooting because I was on the
15:02outside and all I could hear.
15:05I c I can't hear anything but gunshots
15:08and I can I can see things, you know. I
15:11that's it. Driving to the hospital, I
15:13can smell blood. I can not hear Cheryl.
15:17Cheryl's not making a sound. Danny is
15:20just crying real real soft. So So that
15:22sound stays in my mind. And the fact
15:24that Christiey's choking and just and
15:26then I'm yelling at her and screaming at
15:28her to to roll over on her face because
15:32I was trying to keep her from choking on
15:34her blood and it just didn't dawn on me
15:36that she was shot in the chest and that
15:37the blood was coming from her chest, not
15:39going down into her chest. Um, to be
15:42honest, it made me a better person
15:44because I know all the mistakes. I know
15:45not what not to do to my kids. I know
15:48what to avoid. Uh, one thing is to not
15:50be married.
15:52And that may seem very harsh, but I
15:55honestly don't believe that children
15:57need fathers. And they're nice to have
16:00around sometimes when they can do things
16:03to help you. But when they are mentally
16:05abusive, when they are harsh, and the
16:08way my ex-husband was, they're more a
16:10deterrent to the children than a help.
16:12And unless you can find a good father,
16:15there is no need for them. Diane says
16:18her marriage with Steve DS deteriorated
16:20when friction arose over an unexpected
16:23pregnancy.
16:24Okay. After I had Christy and after I
16:26had Cheryl,
16:28Steve had a vasectomy.
16:30It didn't work. And he never went back
16:33to get checked to see if it worked. He
16:35just figured doctors know what they're
16:37doing. It must have worked. So after I
16:40think it's uh you're supposed to wait 10
16:43weeks, be on some kind of contraceptive
16:45for 10 weeks and then you're safe. And
16:46you check,
16:47but you're supposed to check. Yeah. He
16:49never went back because he was just too
16:50busy and the doctor probably knew what
16:52he was doing. Well, I got pregnant and I
16:54knew that I wasn't messing around with
16:55anybody and that if I was pregnant
16:58because I know what being pregnant feels
17:00like. I know how I got that way and I
17:02told him about it and he gave me heck.
17:05Oh,
17:06he was Danny or is Danny not?
17:08That was the child that I aborted. Steve
17:10put me through hell with that one and I
17:12had an abortion. Cheryl was collicky.
17:14Steve was bitching. We f I made Steve go
17:17back to the doctor or shut up. Don't
17:18accuse me until you know. The doctor
17:20said, "Yeah, you are fertile. I guess I
17:22goofed up. Come on in and we'll go ahead
17:24and do it again." Well, I was pregnant.
17:26So, I was 20 years old, had two kids. I
17:29was collicky. My husband was a bastard.
17:32I'm sorry. And I had an abortion. And I
17:36felt so horrible about it that I had
17:39killed somebody like that. I didn't kill
17:42it myself, but I hired a doctor to do
17:44it. Yeah.
17:46And so I asked my husband to have his
17:48vasctomy changed, reversed. He refused.
17:51I asked him for a year. He kept saying
17:53no. I said fine, I will find a suitable
17:56donor. I watched people I worked with. I
17:59picked somebody that was attractive,
18:00that was healthy, that was not abusive
18:02of drugs and alcohol and such. Was
18:05strong, you know, bone structure, the
18:07whole bit. A good specimen. It was
18:09really clinical. It was really terrible.
18:11And I seduced him. and I know my cycle.
18:15And it only took once and I got
18:17pregnant. I went home and about a week
18:19later I told Steve I was pregnant. And
18:21he goes, "How do you know?" And I says,
18:22"Well, I know my cycle. I know I'm
18:24pregnant." And he was really upset. For
18:26that whole nine months, he put me
18:27through hell every day, every night. It
18:30was terrible. Just railed on me
18:32constantly. Told me to get an abortion,
18:35the whole bit. And then after the baby
18:37was born, he told me, "If you have a
18:40girl baby, I might let you stay around,
18:43but if you have a boy, I'm kicking you
18:45both out on your butts, and you're going
18:47to take those two with you also, cuz how
18:49do I know they're mine?" That kind of
18:51attitude. Well, I lived with that for
18:53nine months. When Danny was born, Steve,
18:56cuz Okay, the reason I had to be a girl
18:58was because Christy was supposed to be a
19:00boy. I was so cruel and mean. I had a
19:02girl and Steve just couldn't stand it.
19:04Got one more chance, Diane. Cheryl
19:06better be a boy. Well, Cheryl turned out
19:08being a girl. He came into the recovery
19:10room. He goes, "Well, where is he?" I
19:12said, "He's a she." He says, "How could
19:13you do that? You know, we're not having
19:15any more kids." Crazy. Flipped out. So,
19:19if I was going to have another one, I
19:20better darn sure have a girl. Well, when
19:22Danny was born, he was a boy. And my
19:25first thought was, I'm dead. He's dead.
19:28What's he going to do to that baby? And
19:29then I didn't care. I mean, that was my
19:32baby. that was supposedly the baby that
19:34was going to replace the one that I had
19:35aborted. And as soon as I looked at
19:37Danny, I said, "You can't. That's that's
19:40a boy baby. That's" and I just knew that
19:42the baby I'd aborted was a girl. I named
19:43her Carrie and everything. There's just
19:45a different human being altogether. You
19:47know,
19:48a whole lot of emotion on that delivery
19:50table. And Steve standing there right
19:51beside me looking at me like, "You
19:53witch, how could you do this? You're
19:56out." You know, and Dr. George hand
19:58handed Daniel to Steve. And from that
20:01point on, Steve spent the rest of the
20:03the past four years trying to prove to
20:06people that he was not biased and not
20:09prejudice, thereby becoming bias and
20:11prejudice. DS knew a lengthy murder
20:14trial would make her private life public
20:16territory. She's very frank about being
20:19a surrogate mother. She ran a surrogate
20:21program in Arizona and gave birth to
20:24another couple's child.
20:26Diane lost visitation rights to her own
20:28two surviving children after the murder.
20:30She was found guilty of contempt of
20:32court for seeing them in a secret visit
20:34set up by her ex-husband Steve. Police
20:37found out about the visit in a letter DS
20:39wrote to her former boyfriend, Robert
20:41Nicobacher, known as Nick, in Arizona.
20:44You fought for Steve to get custody of
20:46the kids and then you wrote a letter to
20:47your former boyfriend telling him that
20:49Steve was an unfit father for your
20:51children. A lot of people won't
20:53understand that, Diane. But Steve is
20:55different than most people. He can
20:59Steve pointed an empty gun at my head at
21:01one time and pulled the trigger. Do you
21:03know why? He wanted me to marry him.
21:06That is crazy.
21:09CSD, I believe, is very careful in
21:12picking out the people that care for a
21:13child that they think has been abused.
21:15And right now, they believe that Christy
21:17has been one of the most abused children
21:19in the world. Granted, she was shot, but
21:21before that, she was never abused. But
21:24they believe that that's probably true.
21:26And so they're going to put Christy in a
21:27very very good place. And so I know that
21:29Christiey's in a good home.
21:32And so I just decided that it was better
21:33that Christy be in a safe in a sta a
21:37mentally stable environment rather than
21:40to be with Steve and even cry in front
21:43of my family. And I can go to my room
21:45and I can write in this diary, this
21:48record book
21:50some of my fears and and it's really
21:52even sketchy. I don't write in a lot of
21:54detail. There are days when I'm
21:55overwhelmed with with emotion and the
21:58book will be rather emotional, but but
21:59very few days, it's just sitting in
22:01front of the book and and writing down
22:04little sentences and then being able to
22:05cry over it and and feel emotionally
22:08everything that that I don't physically
22:10write down. And it's a very good
22:12release. It's uh it's therapy in a way.
22:15It's also a way of keeping a record
22:17because in the beginning, so many things
22:18were said to me that were denied later.
22:22Oh, it's so sad.
22:23Have you ever thought of the fact that
22:25you're writing these things could be
22:27used against you or in your favor at any
22:30future time?
22:31No, I didn't because I never thought the
22:33book would be made public. I got
22:34pregnant because I miss Christy and I
22:37miss Danny and I miss Cheryl so much.
22:39I'm never going to see Cheryl on Earth
22:41again. And I just You can't replace
22:45children, but you can replace the effect
22:47that they give you. And they give me
22:49love. They give me satisfaction. They
22:51give me stability. They give me a reason
22:52to live and a reason to be happy and and
22:55that's gone. They took it from me. But
22:58children are so easy to conceive.
23:01Obviously, everyone is curious who the
23:03father is. And I know you probably don't
23:05want to talk about that. Does the father
23:06know who he is?
23:07Oh, yeah. Yeah. And that's why I won't
23:09talk about it because he feels as
23:10privately about this child as I do.
23:13What would you do given this current
23:15situation if they said they took if they
23:18took away your kids and then they went
23:20one step further and said, "We think
23:22you're an unfit mother.
23:23We're going to take away this one." I
23:24don't know how they're going to do it.
23:27One of the I I'd like to see them try to
23:29take this baby from me. And
23:32how how could they do it? They're going
23:34to have to wait a long time to do it.
23:36Hopefully, this thing will be cleared up
23:37by then. I don't know that they could do
23:40this. take it away after it's born. I
23:43don't know. I've never even talked to my
23:45attorney about it because it seems so,
23:48let's put it the way the DA says. It's
23:49laughable.
23:51I die every day when I go to bed. I cry
23:53at night. Even now, I still cry. I dream
23:56about Cheryl. I dream about Cheryl
23:58reaching out with me with her arms and
23:59always giving me a kiss and saying, "I
24:02love you. I miss you. Where have you
24:03been?" It's almost as if she really is
24:04coming back and saying, "How come you're
24:08not here with me?"
24:10One time, it was right after Christy
24:12went to the foster home. I dreamed that
24:14Cheryl came to me. Well, Christy came to
24:15me and I said, "Christy, how did you
24:17find me?" And she said, "Cheryl brought
24:19me." And Cheryl came walking out of the
24:21shadows and there was blood on her shirt
24:23and I just Yeah, it was really spooky.
24:25And I said, "Cheryl, I thought you were
24:28dead." And she goes, "No, I was faking
24:29it. I knew they were going to take
24:30Christy away and she wouldn't be able to
24:31find you, so I brought you." And then
24:33Cheryl showed us how to sneak Danny out
24:34of the hospital and everything. It was
24:36it was a wonderful dream. It was
24:38wonderful cuz we were we were the four
24:39musketeers and we were together again.
24:41And and
24:42DS also says the children were shot
24:44inside the car, but police reports claim
24:47high velocity blood spatters were found
24:49on the outside of the car, on the
24:51passenger side.
24:52The DA has come up with this idea that
24:55somebody was shot on the outside of the
24:56car. On the passenger side of the car. I
24:59was on the driver's side of the car when
25:01I was shot. And that's why it was so I'm
25:04going it was planted and and it just
25:07seemed I mean it can't be real because
25:09they talk about blood spatter and when
25:11they say spatter I think something being
25:13shot out like the blood spatter in the
25:16car you know it was so uniform it was so
25:19regular same size droplets spread evenly
25:21in a pattern and when they say spatter
25:24that's what I thought of and we saw
25:26pictures of this so-called spatter
25:30it's drops When they took the kids, they
25:33took Chris and Sher out of the driver's
25:35side of the car
25:36and it's blood droplets. It's when they
25:38picked the kids up and carried them over
25:40the threshold, there is blood dripping
25:42down the side of the car. But at night,
25:44when I close my eyes, I can see Christy
25:46reaching her hand out to me while I'm
25:47driving and the blood just keep coming
25:50out of her mouth. And that maybe it'll
25:53fade too with time, but I I don't think
25:55so. That haunts me the most.
26:02Do you know I actually remember the
26:04dying down story and I remember thinking
26:06how weird it was cuz I just had my son
26:08around this time when this was
26:10happening. And um
26:13I also remember that when Diane DS was
26:16incarcerated, she did actually escape at
26:19one stage. Um I think it was a barbed
26:22wire 8ft barbed wire wall which I don't
26:25think is too out the too out the
26:28question to get over but she did she got
26:30over it and yeah she escaped. She was
26:33obviously captured again and she was
26:35given an extra 5 years for that. Her
26:39story also um they made a film about her
26:42her life story Farah Forset I'm just
26:46trying to think what it was called.
26:49um
26:51and also a book which um was documented.
26:54I'll try and find that. If I find it,
26:57I'll put it in the links below.
27:01So, she's where she needs to be as well.
27:04Okay. All right then. So, that's it for
27:07tonight. Um
27:10if you've enjoyed the channel tonight
27:12and you found it interesting, don't
27:14forget that like button. I do appreciate
27:16it if you would do uh hit that for me.
27:19And um in between and I'm going to say
27:22take care, stay safe and come back. Bye.
