JVM – 4.7.14
SY (off camera): “I love you Relisha, Sweet Pea. Set Relisha free to come home to her mother, father, and her brother.”
(VIDEO CLIP)
JVM:
(edited for brevity) Does it dove tail with the grandmother’s claim that there’s a conspiracy of silence here? (JVM continues on with a recap of the case timeline). Her grandmother said, Oh she thought they were attending a pool party.
[VIDEO REPLAY FROM LAST APPEARANCE: “MTY: She went to a pool party. They was supposed to had her his granddaughter 9-year old granddaughter was supposed to had a pool party at a hotel… an indoor at the indoor pool there at the hotel]
JVM: A pool party? In February? At a sleazy hotel? What was really going on in that hotel? (JVM then addresses the facebook photo of AW with cash in his mouth & SY receiving $4,000, asks people to call in, then thanks Melissa Young (MTY) her “special guest” for joining her).
I’ve gotta start by asking you, Melissa, where did you daughter’s husband get all the money that he was stuffing in his mouth? And why are we hearing reports that your daughter also got $4,000 right around the time, shortly after her daughter disappeared?
MTY: (pause) Hello.
JVM: Hello! Did you hear my question? Melissa….!
MTY: Yes, yes ma’am, I heard it. (but doesn’t answer)
JVM: OK, well, why? How did the missing girl’s mother get $4,000?
MTY: OK. My daughter was involved… was in my car when I had my a- … my accident last year. April the 10th, 2013, we were all was involved in the car accident. Myself, my husband, her little sister, her little sister’s son, her little sister’s boyfriend, and Shamika herself, we all was in my car, and it hit a tree. That’s when Shamika came about getting $4,000 from. I have documentation….
JVM: (cutting her off): OK, so it’s just a coincidence that after the, her daughter, this precious child, that’s seen her dancing, vanishes, her mother gets $4,000. I have so many questions about that. One, why not use that $4,000 to move into a real apartment?
MTY: Ummm…. One, she just getting that settlement? From a year ago? It’ll be a year on this coming Thursday, so, ummm…. But, we, (stuttering) I don’t know why she didn’t use it? to get into an apartment, matter of fact, she hasn’t even, from my understanding, she hasn’t even spent her settlement from the car accident. And when they (inaudible due to crosstalk)
JVM: (cutting her off) Well, I would hope not!
MTY: No, she hasn’t spent anything
JVM: OK, but why not? Why not use it as a down payment for an apartment? I mean, what we’re hearing… The Washington Post did an in-depth article on this back story of Relisha, the missing child, that said she was often dirty, showing up at school. She hated living in a homeless shelter…
MTY: (cutting JVM off): She was never dirty showing up at school!
JVM: Well, they’re saying she was living in a homeless shelter for two years, and that she hated it to the point where she was moved around a rotating group of family members, and then this Khalil Tatum janitor guy moves into the rotation and takes her to movies
MTY: Jane…!
JVM: and stay over, and then finally, just takes her.
MTY: Since my grandkids and their mother has been at D.C. General Shelter for the past two years, everybody has had my grandkids. My grandkids, not just Relisha, I’m speaking about her brothers as well, Relisha and her siblings, never really stayed a full night, let alone a full week at the shelter. They was always gone. So….umm…., of course, yes, Relisha and her brothers hated being at the shelter. One, because there’s nothing for them to do. Nothing, they have nowhere to play, no playground, no nothing. If you walking down there you gon’ see that for yourself. Standing outside amongst their parents and other people that get off the bus there, and they’re doing God knows what. While grown ups is just standing there, you know smoking a cigarette or whatever, but the kids is standing still - standing there (inaudible) so…
JVM: Ah….
MTY: Why not let her kids get away? Her k-k- want away every weekend? This is what…and Mr. Tatum? And Mr. Tatum? He had, this is the first time he had the first time he had ever done something like this – ran with her
JVM: Well (scoffs), you can’t do something like this twice. He was pursued by cops for
MTY: Right! (they are talking over each other)
JVM: for abducting her… And then….allegedly murdering his wife and then killing himself.
MTY: So what I’m saying. This is the first time we had a problem out of him.
JVM: You don’t do that twice.
MTY: Well… I don’t… For me personally…. (crosstalk)
JVM: (JVM then shows the facebook photo from February, and addresses AW as SY’s “husband”.)
Some people are disturbed about all this money coming into the family right around the time she disappears.
MTY: Speaking of speaking on all the cash that her baby father – he’s not, they’re not officially married, they’re engaged.
JVM: OK
MTY: Her fiancé was seen in a picture stuffing his mouth. Her fiancé stepfather gets disability. He gets two checks. Every month he gets two checks. So it’s not normal for him to have that much money, and he doesn’t spend all of his money.
He save it, so, when he gets his benefits for the following month, he still got money for the next month to add to the benefits that he got for the new month. So, it’s not unusual for him to have they type of money.
(I replayed this several times to verify she said "not normal" and the closed captioning caught it too! Notice she self-corrects and says "not unusual" by the end though!
JVM: goes to the expert panel – and they’re not buying it! They’re saying the story has many holes and they don’t buy it. The sneakers, why not move out of the shelter, etc. J. Lieberman also addressed that KT may have met SY in 2005.
Next post will address MTY’s “Conspiracy of Silence”

My transcription will pick up after this point. The video link posted up-thread by another WSer on Page #5 took me to a different JVM video :blushing: - Hope this helps! I wish she would post the entirety of MTY's "appearance" so you can hear it for yourself. Nothing can replace true context.
I'm still plugging away at this, but I wasn't able to get to the DVR until my munchkins went to bed (movie night
)
They love me, but not enough to give up the DVR for a Websleuths transcription on a school night before bedtime.... :sigh:
