MAN ON FIRE: Mother sets husband on fire for child molestation
What happens when justice takes an unexpected turn? A shocking case of a woman setting her husband on fire after suspecting him of molesting their daughter sets the scene for a deep dive into the murky waters of media sensationalism and public perception. This episode peels back the layers of storytelling, examining how varying narratives from different news outlets can shape societal reactions and moral judgments. With a nod to our audience's enduring fascination with true crime, we also discuss our hit episode on the Alaskan Avenger, unraveling why these gripping tales captivate listeners time and again.
Switching gears, we tackle the divisive topic of gun control in the U.S., sharing personal experiences and offering a balanced critique of the polarized debate. The conversation then takes a political turn, reflecting on the Veterans Affairs performance across different administrations, with particular focus on perceived changes during Trump's and Biden's presidencies. As the episode winds down, I provide a glimpse into my life in Manila, highlighting my experiences with the VA there and how my early morning routine has become a cherished part of my day. Join us for an episode filled with thought-provoking discussions and personal reflections.
dude, a woman lights her husband on fire for, uh, molesting their daughter. It's badass. But before we get into that, what's up? Um, yeah, I'm gonna talk about uh, it's actually happened like almost 10 years ago I think, but it seems like my, the podcast where I talk about or read about crazy stories that happened years ago. I mean some of my other. There's a few that are like way more popular, but it seems like the ones that have legs, the ones that, um, I get you know listens or downloads or whatever, are the ones that are about you know, true crime kind of stories or just crazy stories that happen like I, um, I have an episode about the alaskan Avenger and that thing always gets like people listen to that still, I mean, it's not like I'm like you know killing it, but it still gets a lot of listens and downloads. I'm kind of surprised. So I was kind of going through some of mine and I'm like, okay, yeah, it looks like these are the ones that kind of stand the test of time, so to speak. You know what I mean. I mean you have like your headlines and whatever, but I don't know Like there's another shooter that shot up a school in the States.
Speaker 1:She's like a feminist. It's like you know, and again immediately oh, get rid of guns. We got to get rid of guns. Guns are the problem. It's like, dude, it's the person of guns. We gotta get rid of guns. Guns are the problem. It's like, dude, it's the person shooting the gun. You dumb fuck.
Speaker 1:It's like if there were no guns, they would find another reason, they would find another way to commit these, these crimes or these killings or whatever. You know what I mean. I mean you can argue like maybe it's more accessible. You know that if there were no guns, then they'd have to come up with another way and then, in doing so, would keep them from actually committing it. Maybe you know it's possible, but the fact of the matter is there are guns and you're not going to get rid of them. You know it's like it's just. It's a pipe dream to think that. You know, unless you had a genie that can magically I think I've said it before let's get a genie that magically could just make all guns and all bullets and all machines that make guns just disappear and everybody forget about them. That's the only way it could work. But you're not. It's just dumb. It's a. But you're not. It's just dumb. It's a stupid argument. You know it's just liberal retards fighting against right-wing retards, I guess I don't know like I'm. You know I'm a gun person. I'm not like a gun fanatic.
Speaker 1:I had to sell all my guns when I moved here, which was kind of it was hard at first but I got over it. I want to get some guns while we're here. You know I mean like I do have. Oh gosh, I left a shotgun that I got like when I was in sixth grade for Christmas with my cousin. That that's the only one that really kind of bugs me, that I wish I could still have that. I would like to fill out the paperwork and have it shipped here. I got to reach out to him. But other than that, you know, I had a different shotgun. It was a nice over under. I had a couple of pistols, you know, but I sold them all just because just the time and money and everything to bring guns over here just wasn't. You know, we were kind of on a quick turnaround. You could say so.
Speaker 1:For more information regarding that, watch another episode. But you know there was the Luigi guy that killed the CEO, didn't hear nothing about nobody. Hey, we need to get rid of guns. It's like they only. It's just I don't know, it's just, it gets so annoying, it's so obvious, I mean, and it's both sides of the aisle. It's just like some of their arguments it's just like, oh my God, they just, it's just so stupid and they wonder why people don't respect politicians and people don't trust the news and all that. You know what I mean. It's just like I wonder why anyway, so I'm, what am I doing? I am, I got up early. Well, I get up early pretty much every day. I go to bed early.
Speaker 1:But the one thing I've noticed, though and this is all coincidental, but I remember, when I worked for the VA, like it was just like, really like you were under the microscope and you were under pressure to make sure that, you know, everything was all veterans were taken care of and this and that, like to the point of words, it was annoying, you know. And I remember dealing with some vets where I was just like dude, you're a douche. You know, you make me feel guilty about being a veteran, you know what I mean. There's some of them out there. And then, but I was like you know, trump mean, there's some of them out there and then, but I was like, you know, trump was like really implementing a better VA, you know. So it's like it was really annoying, but at the same time, like I understood and recognized that, okay, this is to make the VA better, because I, you know, been going to the VA for years and before that it was like trash, you know. So it'd gotten better, right. And then now it's like the VA is sucking again and I'm just like, oh, you know, because Biden, I don't know, it's probably just coincidental, but it does kind of seem I do see a little bit of a pattern and like the VA in Manila, for the first year two years maybe I was here. How long have I been here? Now I've been here? It's gonna be going on five years.
Speaker 1:The first two years I was here, I had no problems with my getting my uh, my pharmaceutical, my medication, you know, delivered to me. But for the last two years or more, it's like it takes a month I'll select, okay, I need to order a new whatever and it takes like a month to get here, when it used to be like a week, you know. And they're like, oh, we're backed up, we're backed up. Well, it's like, okay, well, you've been backed up for two years now. What the fuck's the problem? There's, there's some. There's obviously some kind of reason you're backed up. How are you not finding the reason for the backup and fixing it? You know what I mean. I'm just like what? And I'm just like, oh, biden failure, okay, I get it. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Again, it's, you know it's just speculation, but anyway, it's just annoying. It was like because I used to order, because you can only order your meds like at a certain time, like it's not, you can't just order it whenever, it's like when it becomes available. So then I'd click order it, but then by the time it got to me I was like out of my meds in like a week. For a week I didn't have it, or so you know what I mean. So it's like if you're backed up, then you need to let people order their shit earlier. You know, I don't know. It's kind of annoying. I sent a message to my medication doctor guy and I was like, hey, I just ordered my whatever. I was like I'm still kind of waiting. It was like a month ago I ordered some other stuff and I haven't gotten it and I'm like what's going on with the? It's like it's been backed up for two years. Like what's so hard? Like what's going on? How do they not figure out the problem anyway? So that's going on.
Speaker 1:I love it here, but at the same time I don't. The other thing is like so I burnt this morning, got up, and I get up pretty early every day whether I've slept good or not. If I haven't slept good, I get up really early. Like yesterday I got up like at two in the morning and I couldn't go back to sleep. But today I get up really early, like yesterday I got up like at two in the morning and I couldn't go back to sleep. But say, I woke up like four and you know, I started getting things ready for my kids and getting stuff prepared and whatever. And then, once they were ready to go, I was like you know, I'm going to burn some trash.
Speaker 1:So a thing here, maybe not down in Manila in the city, but where I live, which is a little bit rural, not really, but sort of, a lot of people burn, you know, uh, yard waste or garbage. They're not supposed to, supposedly, but you know, I've been putting out trash cans in the front of my house and they never get picked up Like it's. We have to call them like hey, you're going to pick it up, it's just, it's like ridiculous, you know. So what I started doing, which isn't a bad idea really but I started separating our garbage. So I have, like trash that needs to be picked up by the garbage, and then I have some recycle and then I have burnable trash. Some recycle and then I have burnable trash, so it cuts down my garbage, a lot more of my, my waste that I have to get picked up by the garbage truck, right, um, and now they have a, a um Landfill that they kind of opened up, set up, or they they upgraded, I guess, and it's a lot easier to kind of get rid of stuff. So that's what we've been doing when our trash gets full, we just stick it in the back of our truck and take it there, because to rely on the garbage men here is just, you know, it's never going to happen. And um, so today I was burning, just the burn. Like I have a trash can. That's just stuff that burns, you know. So then I'll burn a little bit of yard waste, like palm trees, dude palm trees, coconut trees, holy crap. They look cool but they produce so much waste. It's annoying. I can't wait to get rid of mine. I gotta figure out something else, though, because it's gonna kill a lot of shade, I don't know. But dealing with that, but I mean, I think that's what that's.
Speaker 1:One of the biggest gripes I have about here is is, like you know, in the states, your, your garbage, your waste management, your law enforcement, your emergency services, all them they are held to a very high standard and they are under a microscope, which, when you are one of those individuals, you know, when you're ems, when you're waste management, police, whatever, it's annoying, right, but here it's like dude, they just they suck, the police suck, they don't, they don't do anything. They try their damnedest to get out of really doing anything. All they want to do is drive around in their uniform with their lights on, like look at me, I'm a police officer. Hopefully nothing happens and I don't have to do anything. That's what it seems like, you know. And same thing with the garbage Like why is it? Why do we have to like get an act of Congress to get our garbage picked up? You know, it's like it, just it gets annoying sometimes, man, but anyway, so that's what I was doing today.
Speaker 1:And then, okay, on top of that, I guess this is a griping episode my internet. And then, okay, on top of that, I guess this is a griping episode, my internet. So we used to have PLDT, which is the internet provider here, and they sucked. When the internet worked, it was fine, but when it was down, it took forever to get any kind of response or any any, you know, customer service, anything. It was horrible, and so we got rid of them. And then we got globe, and it's been better.
Speaker 1:Like they're a lot more um, like the ratio for internet to be out or whatever is a lot less, you, you know, like the internet's. Usually, for the most part, the internet works just fine. I have no problems, right, and then when we have had problems, it seemed like they were a little quicker to get it fixed, until recently, though, so it was like the third day. Yeah, my internet's out right now. Supposedly they're working on something I don't know if they're installing more lines or whatever, but it's like we'll have internet for a half hour or something and then it won't.
Speaker 1:It comes and goes, but it's like three days, you know, and they keep telling me oh, we're working on some stuff. It's like, okay, well, for how long? Like, what's the timeframe? What's going on? You know, it's just like, oh, my goodness, these are the types of things that I just they're like oh, you're in a different country, don't move there, don't just accept it. And it's like, yes, I know it's a different country, things are different, but at the same time it's like and I can accept a lot of it, most of it, but there are just some things that I can't. And it's just like in, in the States, the customer's always right. The customer service person wants to say fuck, you Customer's always wrong, I get it, but here they actually live by that code. You know they don't give a fuck, they just whatever. It's just I don't know. There's no accountability here. And then when you call somebody out for anything like for failing to do their job or failing to be stupid, they get all pissy and upset and everything. It's just like gosh, which, to be fair, nobody likes to be called out, but it's just. It's different here. It's hard to explain, I don't know. But that's. That's enough about me going on today.
Speaker 1:So the thing I wanted to talk about was on Facebook there was a woman who lit her husband on fire because he was molesting their daughter, right? So apparently this happened in Washington back in 2014, so 10 years ago, and I can't say that I remember hearing about this Now. I guess there's. You know, on social media you'll always get people, will post things and you're like dude, that's old. Most people will catch it Dude, that's so old. But sometimes, like for me, like it was the first time I've seen it, right, but I guess the pictures that used to correlate with the story were the wrong, completely wrong pictures, like the woman and everything was just like not the right one. They just get the story.
Speaker 1:Somebody finds a random picture of a guy burning and puts it together, you know, and they're like, oh, it's fake news. It's like, well, it's not fake news, it's just not completely correct. That's the other thing. It's like a woman did set a guy on fire. Yeah, that's not the right picture, but that doesn't mean that this whole thing was fake, you know. And that's what like the whole left-wing media and all the bullshit on Facebook and everything used to do? They would find something in a post that might be wrong and it could be something so minute, that was like it doesn't matter, but they'll be like oh, that's false, because you didn't put a period. You know it's like oh my gosh, anyway, it's turning around now the pendulum is swinging, right, anyway. All right, so I'm going to read a couple of different articles, because they're all pretty short.
Speaker 1:But a husband set on fire by wife now faces child molestation charges. So a man who was badly burned when his wife allegedly set him on fire is now facing sex crime charges. A police report filed with court papers said that tata, oh man titan, wait, titania shah dang titania, titan I shah. I don't. Maybe the wise. Oh man, tatanya, wait, tatanyasha Dang Tatanya Tatanisha, I don't Maybe the Y is silent. Tatansha T-A-T-A-N-Y-S-H-A. Is the Y silent? Maybe I don't know. Excuse me, but Whatever her name is Headman, she's 39 at the time, so now she's 49, poured gasoline over her husband, vincent Phillip, who was 52 at the time, and set him on fire.
Speaker 1:Hedman, told prosecutors she believed. So they have different last names. I guess she believed Phillips molested her seven-year-old daughter. I hope she more than believed it. I hope there was evidence. But well, obviously I guess they did because he's being charged. But uh, molested her seven-year-old daughter and admitted to setting the fire because shooting him was too nice. That is fucking gangster, right there. She set him on fire because shooting him was not mean enough. I concur. I concur, all right.
Speaker 1:A friend who was sleeping on the couch in the apartment at the time of the incident told police. She woke up to arguing and saw Hedman run out of the apartment. She woke up to arguing and saw headman run out of the apartment. Phillips then ran out the bedroom with his head on fire. Their friend threw a blanket over phillips to put out the flames. Phillips didn't say anything except to scream and left the apartment and then he ran into a convenience store later on, which they're not talking about here.
Speaker 1:So that's why I have a couple different articles, because they're all really short, with just different aspects. Let's see. Here's another one. A mother's love is relatively the purest and most intense kind of love in this world.
Speaker 1:Somebody wants to be a writer. We just want to know what happened. We don't need a freaking. You know the things that a mother can do. Oh, my goodness. Okay, like I get it, but it's not an opinion piece, dude. We just want to know what happened, you know, and that's kind of the thing. That's what's wrong with the news now is everybody has to, like, throw in their opinions. It's like dude, we don't give a shit what you think. If we did, we would go to. You know the. What do they call it? The opinion, the editorial page or whatever? Just tell us what happened. 2014, then 40. Okay, so now she was 40.
Speaker 1:Became the subject of local headlines when she took matters into her hands. She found out her husband defiled her seven-year-old daughter, doused her husband with gasoline, set him on fire while he was sleeping, police. But then I thought he wasn't sleeping because the neighbors said or their lady there said that they were arguing. They heard arguing. So maybe he woke up from the gasoline and was like what the hell? And there was arguing and then she let set him on fire. I don't know. Reports say she waited for him to sleep before acting on what she did to her daughter, who was born outside of their marriage.
Speaker 1:Media outlets are calling in a crime of passion. Law enforcement officers took her into custody a day after philips made a scene in a convenience store yes, in renton. So I used to. I didn't live there, but I used to. I used to frequent that area so he ran into smoldering it hurts. At the time, he had suffered severe burns and was rushed to the hospital. Philip's crime did not go unpunished. While staying at the hospital to recover from his burn wounds, he was charged with first degree child molestation. When he was arrested I cannot say her name admitted to the crime and said that she only did it for her sweet daughter, filled with a mix of motherly love and utter rage. She told the police that she had initially thought about shooting her husband, but thought that it would be too nice. It's awesome.
Speaker 1:Her story captured the attention of many social media users, unsurprisingly so. I'm like I'm late to the game. This is like old. Everybody's like dude. This is old man. What are you talking about? Sorry?
Speaker 1:She received praise from her parents, who believe that she acted only to protect her child. Some even made a Facebook page and a fundraiser. I mean, yeah, legally, it's kind of like dude, you set them on fire. That's a little. It's a little. I'm sure I don't know, but I'm sure she got punished a little bit for that, because it is kind of a little. It's a little. Uh, I'm sure I don't know. I don't know, but I'm sure she got punished a little bit for that, because it is kind of a little extreme, like I can empathize and I understand, like I get it, but at the same time you know he was sleeping, he wasn't in the middle of molesting the child, you know there's there are laws and stuff, so it's kind of plus, like, even if he was in the middle of doing it, you're not going to douse him in gasoline, because then you're going to douse your daughter, you know. So if he was actually doing it and then he got shot, it'd be like, oh well, that's the way it is. But the way it went down, even though it's gangster and I agree with it, you know it can't work. A recent post from the page said that she is out and is staying at a transitional house. In the meantime, she is also receiving much love from the Facebook community and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. All right, but see, I don't have. This is all again. Well, it's a couple of years later. When did this come out? So this is right after. So, $500,000 was her bail. Let's see if there's anything extra on here. Da da da.
Speaker 1:According to court documents, entering Renton officers could smell a strong odor of gasoline in a Renton apartment Martin Luther King Way, where prosecutors allege that a headman doused her husband with gasoline and set him on fire. Burn marks were observed on the couch in the living room. So he's sleeping on the couch. A woman staying in the apartment told investigators she had heard the couple arguing See, that's what I'm talking about. And she saw him and run from the bedroom of the apartment. So he maybe he was sleeping. She doused him and he woke up from it and was like what the hell? And then she threw the match I don't know his head on fire. He fell next to the couch and she threw a blanket over. Oh, this is okay. Before, once flames were out, the husband put on some clothes and left the apartment. Oh, so it wasn't. So he was already burned. Then he threw on some clothes and he left. See, they kind of the posts in the pictures make it seem like he's like running down the street on fire.
Speaker 1:You know, I don't know, but the husband made his way to a 7-eleven as a clerk to call for medical help. Well, if he was able to put clothes on, why didn't he call? I don't know. That's just weird. He just wanted to get out of the area. I guess um told the officer. My wife did it. He fell asleep before he could give the officer her name, fell asleep More like passed out Shock Dude what? According to documents, he told an officer, my wife did it. He fell asleep. So this is after.
Speaker 1:He got burned, threw on his clothes, went to the 7-Eleven and talked to a cop Before he could give the officer her name. He didn't fall asleep. Well, maybe they gave him, maybe this was, maybe this was. Ems is already on scene and they doped them up, give them pain reliever and the cop is talking to him and that's why we fell asleep. So maybe that's the thing it's like. Dude, if you're writing these like as ems was, you know, whatever, I don't know the people, that people that write these are just horrible.
Speaker 1:Harborview Medical Center. Been there, let's see. Renton Police Department on Thursday had asked for the public's help in finding oh what. So I guess she went on the lam huh. The husband then walked in the store. Headman was arrested by members of the Renton Police Department Special Operations. Details of the arrest weren't immediately available. Headman was booked in King County Jail in Seattle. The victim was being treated in Harborview. My dogs are barking. Anyone with additional information? Okay, that's it for that view. My dogs are barking. Anyone with additional information? Okay, that's it for that. Sounds like my wife is home, but that's about it. It looks like so. I didn't really see anything new about what I'm assuming. The guy's out of jail, the woman's out of jail with a record, I don't know. It's crazy Cool story, though. Let me know what you think. Again, thanks for hanging out, god bless, and I'll see you guys next time. All right, bye.
