[SPEAKER_01]: Join me, John Connor, as I discuss the murder of Judith Barsy.

01:53.273 --> 01:55.358
[SPEAKER_01]: This is CheckaLox podcast.

02:07.758 --> 02:12.323
[SPEAKER_01]: Hello, and thank you for joining me as I dive into yet another truly terrifying true crime case.

02:12.624 --> 02:16.008
[SPEAKER_01]: Before we get started, I just want to take a moment and wish you a very happy week.

02:16.068 --> 02:17.550
[SPEAKER_01]: Hope everything has been going well.

02:17.930 --> 02:19.392
[SPEAKER_01]: Hope that you're staying in warm.

02:19.512 --> 02:23.957
[SPEAKER_01]: I know that if you're like 10 to C, we got up into the 70s and everything was great.

02:24.057 --> 02:27.061
[SPEAKER_01]: And then now we are kind of dipping back into the 30s there.

02:27.441 --> 02:29.504
[SPEAKER_01]: So, hope the weather has been nice for you.

02:29.544 --> 02:32.247
[SPEAKER_01]: I know after those storms, we got a couple of weeks ago.

02:32.227 --> 02:36.653
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're probably all really looking forward to some nice weather coming in and staying.

02:37.314 --> 02:39.477
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I hope that that is what you've got going on.

02:40.018 --> 02:41.721
[SPEAKER_01]: I said, just hope it's been a wonderful week for you.

02:41.741 --> 02:45.286
[SPEAKER_01]: And thank you for letting me hang out with you while you're doing whatever you're doing.

02:45.626 --> 03:00.748
[SPEAKER_01]: Before we get into this week's case, I just wanted to take a moment and read some feedback that seemed to be a pretty general consensus from some of our listeners and our locksmiths about last week's episode, which was the disappearance of Haley Busby.

03:00.728 --> 03:08.739
[SPEAKER_01]: So this actually comes from Heather in our Facebook group and she said this week's case and last week's case, man, the worst.

03:09.320 --> 03:15.669
[SPEAKER_01]: Having a team daughter and knowing that even at home they are possibly not safe is just a scariest thing ever.

03:16.190 --> 03:20.296
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just sad that with the internet they are strangers in your home all the time.

03:20.817 --> 03:22.399
[SPEAKER_01]: Hold your baby's tight.

03:22.379 --> 03:27.165
[SPEAKER_01]: And again, that just tended to be the general consensus about that episode.

03:27.586 --> 03:33.093
[SPEAKER_01]: We do have a lot of parents and, you know, people with children in our community.

03:33.173 --> 03:35.496
[SPEAKER_01]: And that just seemed to be the general tone.

03:35.516 --> 03:43.527
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just that we live in a world where you have to be extra careful now because people can get into your house in other ways and open in a door or climb through a window.

03:43.507 --> 03:46.692
[SPEAKER_01]: So Heather, thank you for listening and thank you for sharing that feedback.

03:46.752 --> 03:48.054
[SPEAKER_01]: It really does mean the world.

03:48.194 --> 03:55.586
[SPEAKER_01]: I appreciate it so much and with that being said, we will go ahead and kind of break into what we're going to be discussing for this week's case.

03:56.066 --> 04:00.193
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was very surprised because I was not really familiar with this case.

04:00.293 --> 04:01.895
[SPEAKER_01]: I had heard a little bit about it before.

04:01.936 --> 04:06.122
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's one of those cases that maybe a lot of people know a little bit about it.

04:06.102 --> 04:13.248
[SPEAKER_01]: Especially if you're of my age group, and I think you'll understand a little bit more about what I'm talking about as we get into the episode.

04:13.749 --> 04:19.234
[SPEAKER_01]: But to take the time and really kind of deep dive into it, it really is a heartbreaking case.

04:19.774 --> 04:22.437
[SPEAKER_01]: It kind of combines three things.

04:22.457 --> 04:23.518
[SPEAKER_01]: I love film.

04:23.538 --> 04:26.921
[SPEAKER_01]: I love true crime, and I'm a dad.

04:27.361 --> 04:30.504
[SPEAKER_01]: So this case kind of rolls all of those things together.

04:30.564 --> 04:36.109
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm excited to hear what you think, what the listeners, the locksmith, get that same type of feedback.

04:36.089 --> 04:39.214
[SPEAKER_01]: And just, you know, again, was this something that you were familiar with?

04:39.294 --> 04:40.596
[SPEAKER_01]: Is this the first time that you're hearing it?

04:40.616 --> 04:41.417
[SPEAKER_01]: What are your thoughts on it?

04:41.578 --> 04:48.228
[SPEAKER_01]: So, with that being said, we'll go ahead, we'll quit the Gabby Gabby, we'll get into the stabby stabby, and let's break down this week's case.

04:48.829 --> 04:57.482
[SPEAKER_01]: Some films not only have an impact when they're released, but carry on to impact future generations, becoming true classics over the following decades.

04:58.404 --> 05:02.350
[SPEAKER_01]: One of those films was the animated hit the land before time.

05:02.718 --> 05:09.691
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, this story follows a young orphaned plant eating dinosaur named Littlefoot, trying to find others like himself.

05:10.553 --> 05:23.477
[SPEAKER_01]: The film was released on November 18, 1988, and it was an immediate hit, grossing $84.5 million worldwide against a $12.3 million budget.

05:23.457 --> 05:32.086
[SPEAKER_01]: Just to put it in context, that 84.5 million adjusted for inflation would be $231.6 million today.

05:32.126 --> 05:39.374
[SPEAKER_01]: The lamb before time became a phenomenon, resonating with children of the 80s and 90s until even today.

05:39.434 --> 05:52.789
[SPEAKER_01]: With one of the big reasons for that, being the character of Ducky, a loyal and loving dinosaur traveling with our heroes throughout the film, with her catchphrase

05:53.258 --> 05:57.825
[SPEAKER_01]: What made the character so beloved was a standout performance by the actor behind it.

05:57.845 --> 06:09.664
[SPEAKER_01]: 10-year-old Judith Barcy Judith was born on June 6, 1978 in Los Angeles, California, to her parents Maria and Joseph Barcy.

06:09.982 --> 06:12.686
[SPEAKER_01]: Marie and Joseph were both Hungarian immigrants.

06:13.367 --> 06:22.561
[SPEAKER_01]: Joseph had suffered a difficult upbringing, growing up in orphan and a rough industrial area of Hungary, while Maria had lived in a rural university town.

06:23.383 --> 06:29.732
[SPEAKER_01]: But after the 1956 Soviet invasion, both Joseph and Maria fled to the United States separately.

06:30.754 --> 06:35.922
[SPEAKER_01]: Joseph, a plumber by trade, would live in Arizona before moving to Los Angeles.

06:36.070 --> 06:38.934
[SPEAKER_01]: earning him the nickname Arizona Joe with friends.

06:39.675 --> 06:47.305
[SPEAKER_01]: Maria would also end up in California, working as a waitress in a Los Angeles restaurant, and that is where she would meet her future husband.

06:48.206 --> 06:51.991
[SPEAKER_01]: The two bonded over their shared heritage and pursuit of the American dream.

06:52.912 --> 06:56.897
[SPEAKER_01]: Marriage would come, and eventually their daughter Judith would be born.

06:57.620 --> 07:07.315
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, Maria had been star struck by all the famous actors in nearby Hollywood, and his Judith grew up, she thought it would be a good chance for her daughter to have a future.

07:08.136 --> 07:10.559
[SPEAKER_01]: One without the struggles is that she had faced herself.

07:11.421 --> 07:16.949
[SPEAKER_01]: So from a young age, Maria began teaching Judith about posture, poise, and how to speak.

07:18.191 --> 07:26.243
[SPEAKER_01]: Her family would discourage her, telling Maria that it was a 1 in a million chance of success,

07:27.050 --> 07:29.834
[SPEAKER_01]: One day, Maria had taken Judith ice skating.

07:30.315 --> 07:34.602
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, because it's Los Angeles, there happened to be a project being filmed there.

07:35.343 --> 07:40.631
[SPEAKER_01]: And when producers saw the tiny blonde girl gliding across the ice, they were immediately smitten.

07:41.252 --> 07:43.456
[SPEAKER_01]: And they invited her to be part of their commercial.

07:44.317 --> 07:47.522
[SPEAKER_01]: Sparking what would become a promising career for the young girl.

07:48.565 --> 07:54.033
[SPEAKER_01]: Judith's career as an actress began to grow, and suddenly she was being cast in dozens of commercials.

07:54.915 --> 07:56.617
[SPEAKER_01]: Then she moved into television.

07:57.358 --> 08:03.147
[SPEAKER_01]: Being cast in a TV mini-series called Fatal Vision in 1984, had only six years old.

08:04.148 --> 08:11.940
[SPEAKER_01]: And as the little girl got older, her star continued to burn bright, earning roles on shows like the Twilight Zone and Punky Brewster.

08:12.730 --> 08:14.937
[SPEAKER_01]: Judith's professional career was flourishing.

08:15.539 --> 08:22.943
[SPEAKER_01]: She was making about $100,000 a year, which again, adjusted for inflation, comes out to be about $300,000 today.

08:23.429 --> 08:28.175
[SPEAKER_01]: Her parents used that money to buy a three-bedroom home on the edge of the San Fernando Valley.

08:28.955 --> 08:35.864
[SPEAKER_01]: It seemed that Maria's dream for her child was on track, but the family's home life was growing darker and darker.

08:36.745 --> 08:48.238
[SPEAKER_01]: And while at home, in what is supposed to be your safest space, Judith and Maria were suffering abuse, inflicted by the family's patriarch, Joseph Barcy.

08:48.792 --> 08:51.455
[SPEAKER_01]: Joseph was a heavy drinker and he was quick to anger.

08:52.136 --> 09:02.488
[SPEAKER_01]: The plumber had continued to work even after Judas success, and perhaps because he was unfamiliar with the world his wife and daughter were living in, he seemed to be resentful.

09:03.349 --> 09:07.694
[SPEAKER_01]: He was in a constant state of anger with Maria, sometimes threatening to kill her.

09:08.515 --> 09:14.682
[SPEAKER_01]: Other times threatening to kill himself and jute it, leaving Maria alone in the world to suffer.

09:15.590 --> 09:22.393
[SPEAKER_01]: Joseph tried to maintain tight control over Judah, but he was out of his depth when it came to his daughter's career.

09:22.762 --> 09:28.548
[SPEAKER_01]: once Maria had bought Judith a new kite, and at some point Joseph snatched it from the child.

09:29.189 --> 09:33.654
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, like any kid, Judith lashed out, telling her father you'll break it.

09:34.415 --> 09:41.323
[SPEAKER_01]: It was then that Joseph smashed the kite into tiny pieces, calling Judith a spoiled brat who wouldn't share toys.

09:42.184 --> 09:50.693
[SPEAKER_01]: Though the abuse in the home was mostly verbal, a 1986 police report filed

09:50.943 --> 09:59.775
[SPEAKER_01]: Maria told police that her husband had choked her and hit her in the face, but possibly because she was scared of Joseph, Maria declined to prosecute.

10:00.957 --> 10:14.976
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, despite the abuse at home, Judith's career continued, and in 1986, she was cast as The Abroady in JAWS the Revenge, which has a soft spot in my heart because this movie was on TV all the time when I was growing up.

10:15.817 --> 10:23.285
[SPEAKER_01]: This was Judas' first movie rule, but what should have been a time of celebration for the young actress quickly became a moment of terror.

10:24.205 --> 10:34.716
[SPEAKER_01]: The movie was going to be filmed in the Bahamas, which meant that Maria and Judith would have to be on location, and before Judith left, Joseph did something truly terrifying.

10:35.557 --> 10:41.723
[SPEAKER_01]: Holding a knife to his daughter's neck, saying, if you decide not to come back, I will cut your throat.

10:42.057 --> 10:46.761
[SPEAKER_01]: Judith continued to work, but the abuse at home began to seep into her day-to-day life.

10:47.502 --> 10:51.345
[SPEAKER_01]: She began plucking all over eyelashes out, and she was afraid to go home.

10:52.066 --> 10:57.291
[SPEAKER_01]: Telling her friends that her daddy was drunk every day, and she knew that he wanted to kill her mother.

10:58.472 --> 11:09.702
[SPEAKER_01]: In May of 1988, Judith had an audition scheduled, but shortly before the child became hysterical.

11:10.559 --> 11:17.431
[SPEAKER_01]: Judith would see a child psychiatrist who would go on to report the case to family services, but sadly nothing changed.

11:18.232 --> 11:20.536
[SPEAKER_01]: Both Judith and Maria were living in fear.

11:21.578 --> 11:29.732
[SPEAKER_01]: Maria wanted to take her daughter and leave but she believed that Joseph would retaliate, telling a neighbor that Joseph would find and kill them.

11:30.067 --> 11:35.877
[SPEAKER_01]: But eventually, Maria began taking steps to get herself in Judith out of the violent situation.

11:36.759 --> 11:42.309
[SPEAKER_01]: She had rented an apartment in Panorama City, hoping to escape there with Judith while she worked.

11:43.191 --> 11:47.839
[SPEAKER_01]: But sadly, Maria's hesitation to leave Joseph would lead to tragedy.

11:48.848 --> 11:55.737
[SPEAKER_01]: at around 8.30 a.m. on July 27, 1988, a neighbor heard an explosion come from the bar sea home.

11:56.718 --> 12:00.023
[SPEAKER_01]: They immediately called 911 and firefighters were dispatched.

12:01.084 --> 12:05.450
[SPEAKER_01]: Once the flames were extinguished, the truth about the Grizzly Act was revealed.

12:06.491 --> 12:10.156
[SPEAKER_01]: Joseph had shot Maria in the hallway of the family's home, killing her.

12:11.157 --> 12:16.324
[SPEAKER_01]: He then continued into Judas room, shooting

12:16.574 --> 12:26.488
[SPEAKER_01]: Reports with later indicate that she had been watching a pink television, a television that had been given to her by Joseph as an apology for previous abuse.

12:27.670 --> 12:35.882
[SPEAKER_01]: When he was done with the heinous act, Joseph poured gasoline all over Maria and Judas bodies, as well as the rest of the home.

12:36.520 --> 12:42.931
[SPEAKER_01]: Setting the house ablaze before taking his own life in the garage, destroying his family with his own two hands.

12:43.713 --> 12:52.909
[SPEAKER_01]: Judith Eva Barcy's life was tragically ended at only 10 years old, but her artistic work would go on to last for generations.

12:52.889 --> 12:56.655
[SPEAKER_01]: The lamb before time would be released only months after her passing.

12:57.196 --> 13:01.784
[SPEAKER_01]: With Ducky's signature yet yet yet, being engraved on Judas headstone.

13:02.325 --> 13:11.040
[SPEAKER_01]: Her final film, All Dogs Go To Heaven, would be released on November 16, 1989, with Judith voicing the main character and Marie.

13:11.781 --> 13:15.808
[SPEAKER_01]: Starring alongside Bert Reynolds as an orphan who could talk to dogs.

13:16.548 --> 13:22.581
[SPEAKER_01]: Until this day, the lamb before time and all dogs go to heaven remain beloved films.

13:23.263 --> 13:29.376
[SPEAKER_01]: And as parents pass the movies onto their children, the memory of Judith Barcy lives on as well.

13:30.078 --> 13:33.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Forever holding a special place inside our hearts.

13:46.265 --> 13:56.144
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's this week's case and before we get into the Deadpool test, I did just want to take a moment and kind of share some thoughts like I normally do, but I found this case to be very interesting for a few different reasons.

13:56.204 --> 14:01.574
[SPEAKER_01]: Number one is the work that this child did before she tragically lost her life.

14:02.175 --> 14:07.024
[SPEAKER_01]: I know that I said it during the case details, but

14:07.173 --> 14:12.018
[SPEAKER_01]: jaws the revenge was on television all the time when I was a kid.

14:12.038 --> 14:14.301
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the first thing I ever knew Michael came from.

14:14.761 --> 14:30.919
[SPEAKER_01]: So as an adult, you know, you see Michael Kane and the Nolan Batman movies is Alfred, then in my head he will always be the sea plane pilot from jaws the revenge just because that's the first thing I saw him and it was always on television and then there was just a cute little girl playing on the beach.

14:30.899 --> 14:33.522
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, that was Judith Barsy.

14:34.123 --> 14:49.101
[SPEAKER_01]: And then to go from jaws, something that I've seen a million times to all dogs go to heaven and the lamb before time, these seminal films for people who were born around the time that I was.

14:49.701 --> 14:52.665
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, these were two of the biggest films ever.

14:53.546 --> 14:55.168
[SPEAKER_01]: The gentleman who did,

14:56.228 --> 15:01.477
[SPEAKER_01]: all dogs go to heaven, the movie he did before that was Oliver and companies.

15:01.497 --> 15:03.942
[SPEAKER_01]: So these were, you know, big, big movies.

15:04.723 --> 15:15.823
[SPEAKER_01]: And she's just this little wide-eyed, spunky little, you know, blonde kid who comes in and is able to deliver these performances that.

15:16.023 --> 15:24.537
[SPEAKER_01]: have lasted with us for a lifetime, you know, my friend Sutton is almost a 40 year old man, a lamb before time is still one of his favorite movies of all time.

15:24.617 --> 15:26.981
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm pretty sure he has a lamb before time tattoo.

15:27.763 --> 15:41.305
[SPEAKER_01]: So these are movies that not only resonated with us as children, but as we've grown now when we have our own children, we're sharing these films and these

15:41.285 --> 15:43.431
[SPEAKER_01]: She lost her life in the way that she did.

15:43.451 --> 15:50.350
[SPEAKER_01]: I really do think there is something beautiful about the way that her talent.

15:50.903 --> 16:00.955
[SPEAKER_01]: and her role in these stories that have become so beloved continues to be passed down and in a way just kind of makes it where you're not forgotten.

16:01.695 --> 16:17.113
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought that was very, very interesting and a little heartwarming and it's important to me to focus on the heartwarming aspect because the second part that I wanted to talk about is absolutely devastating and that is the fact that as a father myself,

16:18.038 --> 16:24.126
[SPEAKER_01]: I could never, ever imagine doing anything to hurt my child.

16:25.288 --> 16:36.923
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, the idea that this man put a knife against a, you know, we're talking like a six, seven year old child, put a knife against her throat and said, if you don't come back, I will kill you.

16:37.103 --> 16:44.653
[SPEAKER_01]: I will slit your throat and it seems like from everything that I could pull in the research.

16:44.903 --> 16:47.675
[SPEAKER_01]: that it was just coming from a place of jealousy.

16:47.695 --> 16:50.146
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a year doing better than I am.

16:50.808 --> 16:54.424
[SPEAKER_01]: You're in a world that I don't get to be a part of.

16:54.505 --> 16:57.690
[SPEAKER_01]: you know, you're out growing me and your mother is out growing me.

16:58.250 --> 17:00.453
[SPEAKER_01]: And here I am, I'm just, you know, a plumber.

17:00.514 --> 17:08.485
[SPEAKER_01]: Now that there's anything wrong with being a plumber knowing a trade and it's a skill set that definitely escapes me.

17:08.565 --> 17:15.515
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know it takes a very smart person to be a plumber, you know, to have that kind of trade.

17:16.076 --> 17:22.605
[SPEAKER_01]: But it seems

17:22.585 --> 17:26.390
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, he would drink and it would cause these fights between him and me.

17:26.450 --> 17:35.683
[SPEAKER_01]: The other thing I could never look at my wife and say, I'm going to kill our child and myself to make you miserable, to leave you alone to take everything from you.

17:36.644 --> 17:44.695
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, we talk a lot about monsters on this podcast and how they they walk amongst us every single day and you know, you have to

17:45.029 --> 17:51.322
[SPEAKER_01]: be prepared and you have to keep an eye out for those things and I think that this is a really good example of that.

17:51.863 --> 18:03.207
[SPEAKER_01]: So, because of the way that Judith lost her life and because it was at the hands of her own father, when we're talking devil tests for me, it is just,

18:03.406 --> 18:06.011
[SPEAKER_01]: so hard to believe.

18:06.191 --> 18:11.882
[SPEAKER_01]: And I just cannot wrap my head around the fact that a parent would do this to their own child.

18:11.922 --> 18:17.372
[SPEAKER_01]: And unfortunately, we talked about these kind of cases more times than I would like to think about.

18:17.472 --> 18:25.768
[SPEAKER_01]: So when it comes to the devil test for myself, this is definitely going to be

18:25.748 --> 18:29.054
[SPEAKER_01]: Where does the murder of Judith Barsey fall on your devil test?

18:29.094 --> 18:29.956
