"[Det. Paul Johnson] It was December the 6th. Do you recall it? [Robert Springsteen] We ended up going to the Rocky Horror Picture Show that night. [Johnson] Okay. [Robert] Uh, that was something I did almost twice a week, every week, when I was down there. Every Friday and Saturday night, that was just my entertainment. [Johnson] Would you be surprised if I told you that the Rocky Horror Show wasn't even showing that night, on Friday, December 6th, 1991? [Robert] Mm. Yeah, I would be. [Det. Ron Lara] Really?... [Johnson] Would you find it odd, Mr. Springsteen, that there were a lot of inconsistencies with what you gave the detective?... [Robert] I don't ever... ever remember setting foot within a hundred years of the yogurt shop. And that is the honest truth. [Lara] It's not the honest truth... [Robert] Well then, put me through a lie detector. [Lara] I don't wanna put you through a lie detector! [Robert] But then you guys are telling me you don't believe me. [Lara] Okay, but we know you were at the yogurt shop. [Robert] Prove it. [Lara] Alright-- [Robert] I hate to say it-- [Lara] We say that because we have proved it. That's why we're here. [Robert] How? [Lara] Through eye witnesses. [Robert] (sighs) ...I'm just so confused about everything because, I guess, my version of what happened and everybody else's version of what happened is two completely and totally different things... Which I don't understand. I'd thought we'd gone to the Rocky Horror Picture Show. But I've... come and found out that it was not showing that night."

"[Carlos] Now after all this interrogation, Michael Scott makes the fire start on the girls. Well, that does not fit. Paul Johnson knows this. So they went and got this ATF fire guy to come and tell the jury that the fire started on the girls."

"[Carlos] The DNA doesn't belong to Michael, it doesn't belong to Robert Springsteen... It is not any one of these four boys.
[Amber] So you have to then explain where does it come from? Well, it comes from the killer." #TheYogurtShopMurders #HBODocuseries #HBOMax #truecrime #AlluringAugust

"[Stephen] After the arrests of Ruiz Henao and Mario Tascon, because of their position within the cocaine supply, the price of cocaine in the UK doubled. [Narration] The operation to bring Jesus down is estimated to have cost around £10 million. Three months after Jesus' arrest, cocaine supply had resumed to normal levels. [Ian] From start to finish, the job took me five years. And you've disrupted them for months. It goes to the debate of whether or not you can ever police your way out of a drugs situation in the United Kingdom. "

"[Ron] Law enforcement's always behind the curve, but eventually the tide turns.
[Stephen] They were good. He's unlucky that he came against us." #TheBusDriverBritainsCocaineKing #HBODocuseries #HBOMax #Truecrime #AlluringAugust

"[Det. Johnson] And then we got to the Maurice Pierce tip. Remember that Maurice Pierce was arrested ten days after the yogurt shop murders in Northcross Mall, which is, like, 2 blocks away, with a gun... 22-caliber. And the Maurice tip involved 4 people. Maurice Pierce himself, Robert Springsteen, Michael Scott, and... Forrest Wellborn. When I started this case, I actually thought the best I could ever do Is probably figure out in my own mind who I thought that did it, but never be able to get evidence to go to trial. And then it's like almost overnight, my whole expectation of how this might end up changed."

"Initially, when these parents lost their kids, everybody wanted to talk to them... But, it's no longer in the news... Who could move on? You've lost your child. Or..two children... The story needs to have focus... it will go unsolved." #TheYogurtShopMurders #HBODocuseries #Truecrime #AlluringAugust

"[Jones] There's a lot of things that we did in this case that hadn't been done before. We sent undercover guys to the funerals and had it mic'd up just in case somebody showed up to apologize. We pulled every ticket that was written and that was written in that part of town, we called two or three times for all of the customers that had been in the yogurt shop. Without video evidence, we're depending on people answering the call through the media. The ones that use credit cards, we knew. But we got quite a few in that used cash. Everybody wanted to help... Something else we did in the yogurt shop case, we hypnotized everybody that was in the shop. Maybe they'd seen something the night they were in there that looked fairly unusual. That's how we got composites (sketches) from several of them, is we put them under hypnosis... How close we were to the families, that's something else we did that was pretty unique. They were pretty much a part of the investigation. I mean, they could come and go. They kind of walked in a couple times when we were jacking-up some suspects, but, you know. (Chuckles)"

"The yogurt shop murders was like a ghost story that people told. It was always told in hush tones... Partly because nobody has all the details. Also because it was never solved... the kinda case that never left anyone who worked on it." #TheYogurtShopMurders #HBODocuseries #AlluringAugust

"[Grande] You could say that the David Sconce case was the ultimate incendiary point for which we now have massive regulations in funeral service practice... incredible rules regarding cremation and more statues than probably any other industry. So there's more transparency, more clarity in the decision-making process for consumers...I would love to shout at the top of my lungs that it was 1 person and this 1 person does not reflect all of us. The unfortunate reality is across the United States, we still see scandals involving cremation. [Elie] David Sconce devastated the industry with what he did. And in the end, families still don't trust."

"Can't say I'm over it. Don't think I'll ever be over it..." #TheMortician #HBOMax #HBODocuseries #TrueCrime #JocoseriousJune

"They got $55 to cremate this corpse, and now it's worth all kinds of money. Like car parts, you know, like you strip a car down and sell it. Every body, you know, was all its own little gold mine... And Laurieanne called me on the radio and said, 'Hon, if the body's still warm, open up his eyelids and see if his eyes.. are dry. If they're dry, there's a little bottle in the glove compartment. Get that bottle and put a couple drops in each eye, and then call me.' After that, it was every day. 'Is the body warm, honey? Is the body warm?' She was very pious, churchy, and people trusted her."

"[David] Multiple cremations, gold, ash. My parents did all of that before me, all of that. Yeah. My mom's dad did that before it... This was learned through generations. So, if you want to say 'fruit of the poisonous tree,' there you go" #TheMortician #HBOdocuseries #truecrime #JocoseriousJune

"The Pack"

"One great thing about the Pack is that it can make a copilot feel like his struggles are everyone struggles. And that you're not alone in taking on personal challenges... If the time he had spent with his Pack would help Colin form real chemistry?" #TheRehearsal #HBOMax #HBOdocuseries #MustSeeMay

"The email said in late 2023 a decision was made by Paramount+ Germany to remove the episode in their region after they became uncomfortable with what they call, 'Anything that touches on antisemitism, in the aftermath of the Israel/Hamas attacks.' But it didn't stop there. This act by Germany triggered the attention of other European Paramount branches. And they, in turn, pulled the episode too, before long. The ideology of Paramount+ Germany had spread to the entire globe, eliminating all Jewish content that made them uncomfortable. This is real, by the way. Currently, on the Paramount app, there are 50 results for 'Nazi,' 10 for 'Hitler,' and 0 for 'Judaism.' We've been erased... When it comes to art, I think you have to know your place. And you have to let us Jews express ourselves because, honestly, the way you're approaching this... people might get the wrong idea about what you actually stand for."

"I wanted to urge Paramount to reconsider their decision. But what could I say that wouldn't annoy them? That's what I was worried about... Why did I expect them to get the hint when I didn't even say what I really felt?" #TheRehearsal #HBOMax #HBOdocuseries #offbeat #comedy #AprilAction

"Below 10,000 feet, the conversation is supposed to be focused on the flight, not anything else." This is called a sterile cockpit.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to be the number one contributing factor to aviation crashes in history. And it's not solved."

"For the first time, I was starting to see the dilemma copilots face when deciding if they should speak up to their captain. If they take the controls, it could seem like they don't trust the other person, which could destroy the relationship."

"No one believed the Right Brothers could do it, and no one took them seriously because the field of human aviation, at the time, was considered comedy. Maybe every new idea is funny until it's proven. Maybe a clown can change the world, after all." #TheRehearsal #HBOdocuseries #offbeat #AprilAction
