I promised that if my interview was taken out of context or I was lied on, I would produce the whole interview. Well this is that episode. Within the first 5 minutes of episode 7 of the Pretend podcast, Javier lied by twsiting what I said in my interview when it comes to LaDonna Humphrey and suicide. 

Now if the truth is what you seek, then this interview is more damnning to Javier Leiva than he may realize. I will point out the many lies that he stated in the interview among his own admittance to LaDonna not setting the Allen house fire and manty more. I have stated througfout the course of his podcast that he only produces what he wants you to hear and that only fits his narrative. My uncut video will prove that point in spades! 

You will also find out something about Javier Leiva. Something that to people like me is one of the lowest things you can do in life. However he likes to expose others even if what he is exposing is lies. yet he does not tell you about his own crime!?

At the end I offer a challenge. We will see if Javier is willing to put his MONEY where his mouth is and step up to the plate!!
