Sen. Chuck Schumer Humiliated After THIS Heartbreaking Request
we are also learning more about the eight innocent people who were killed in
that attack including 32 year-old Darren Drake who was struck while riding a Citi
bike yesterday and is now lovingly remembered by his father as a miracle
baby brought home on Thanksgiving joining me now exclusively by phone is
Darren's father Jimmy Drake mr. Drake are you with us
hydranoid we're so sorry for your loss this country is grieving with you and
your family tonight yeah thank you thank you very much thank
you very much that really was a miracle because we tried for almost 12 years you
know to have a baby and then finally we had one pregnancy it didn't work out but
then Darren was born and his birthday was November 18th and it was just so
beautiful that his mother and I came home from the hospital with him on
Thanksgiving Day you know it doesn't really get a lot more beautiful than
that and you know he had a typical normal upbringing you know going to
preschool and becoming a boy scout and going to high school playing football
and then going to college on a scholarship
he's getting a degree from Rutgers and then he you know whenever the corporate
world and he you know worked for Tyson and then area they went down a war in
long ways away and he went to work for Moody's a great great great company and
you know he had one master's in business administration of Internet and systems
and then he was pursuing a second one and you you have described him as as the
perfect son you have had nothing but wonderful things to say to him and and I
can't imagine how difficult it is for you and your wife your only child is
gone how difficult it is to talk about this tonight but if you could what were
your thoughts is we just let off this hour as we're learning more details on
the suspect involved here that carried out this this awful attack that killed
your son mmm what do I think about him yeah I think that he you know he
he should show the rest of his life in solitary that's exactly the way I feel
don't let him get communication with anybody you know it's these people they
come to the country and they hurt us I mean what do they expect I mean of
course there's a war going on between America and you know Isis and al-qaeda
of course there's a war going on but you know I just think that vetting should be
a lot more difficult you know to allow these people to come into the country
especially a single man you know I understand he was married living in
Paterson but I think that when he came in he came in as a you know as one
person but I'm not sure of that fact we have Syrian neighbors across the street
I love them I love the lady like my sister they wouldn't hurt a fly but you
get these you know these radicals and you know my son is the victim you know
it's just one of those occasions where there's nothing you're going to do about
it you just have to live with it mr. Drake how did you first hear about the
attack yesterday we were my wife and I had gone for a ride and we put on a
radio and we heard that there was a incident down by the World Trade Center
where my son worked and we just said no no no there would have to be two coins
to dental that our son would be there that precise time and then as a day went
on and we didn't hear from him and his cell phone went dead and his office
phone he didn't answer and then around five o'clock he normally calls and you
know asked me what he wanted for dinner and you know we just realized this
longer the night went on he wasn't coming home anymore so what we did is we
called around and we found out that Bellevue picked up some victims and also
Columbia down in the Wall Street area and as that they went on not a fact that
lady right there that's on the screen right now at the FBI the lady with the
black uniform on she was with us in Bellevue what a sweetheart she is one of
the anti-terrorist at the I agents and
you know little people there were cops you know I'm saying why are so many cops
here but they were all aces absolutely
wonderful people it's nice to hear that they are the best
do you remember though do you remember the last exchange that you had with your
son the last conversation yeah well when I took him to word Tuesday morning he
had gotten a great amount of sleep all night long and we were going down
Hoboken to Hoboken where the other trained and we got hit with senior
citizens red lights school buses I think there are you going to be late today you
never want to get in on time and when you know what he did he says yeah dad I
don't think I'm going to ride the bike today I had too many meetings so you
know that the that made me feel good that he wouldn't be riding a bike and
then when did they progress and what happened we're so sorry mr. Drake
it's it's it feels horrible that that we even have to talk about this tonight and
your son is gone Darren Drake we'll we'll all remember him and what we're
mourning has lost this evening and we thank you for coming on and telling your
and your wife's and your family's story thank you sir thank you all the best
