In the second interview with Bryer’s father he DID use the expression “blaze of glory” but it now appears that every website, including YouTube, is only showing an edited version of that interview. I heard the original and know this as a fact. I went back to Thread 3, p.48, #958 where one of our members posted a lot of what was said and supplied a link. I went to the link and the video isn’t even there now, but here’s the text:
“He's on a suicide mission. He wants his pain to end,” he said, breaking down into tears. “Basically, he's going to be dead today or tomorrow. I know that. Rest in peace, Bryer. I love you. I'm so sorry all this had to happen.”
Even if his son is caught, his life will be over, the father said.
“He wants his hurt to end. They're going to go out in a blaze of glory. Trust me on this. That's what they're going to do.”
If you go to that link you will see the text underneath the video states “Schmegelsky said he believes his son will die "in a blaze of glory …" but when you listen to it, there’s no mention of it.
In one other article more of what he said is quoted which you will not hear in any of the videos:
“The father recalled that his son bought a nice black suit with his second paycheque from Walmart. “Now I realize it's his funeral suit.”
