53. 3:49to pay back well when you say people who
54. 3:50are you talking about people that were
55. 3:53involved with him before a little bit of
56. 3:55everything this was supposed to be
57. 3:57something when he got off probation it
58. 3:58was supposed to be between us and he
59. 4:00went and he told you no friends of his
60. 4:02he told CineStar people and everyone
61. 4:04kind of talks and he's constantly
62. 4:06running in
63. 4:07a lot of the guys that he was on
64. 4:09probation with like a couple days ago we
65. 4:10ran into someone and that was that's
66. 4:14hard I mean you know the guy comes up to
67. 4:16us and he's asleep with organized crime
68. 4:18it seems like a lot of the guys from
69. 4:19Boca are starting to live up here and
70. 4:21we're constantly running into you know
71. 4:23any mean a lot of the guys but he he
72. 4:25knows things like that there's a lot of
73. 4:29money it was one hundred and ninety one
74. 4:31thousand dollars he had said payback so
75. 4:35we were gonna go ahead and he had the
76. 4:37money to pay off the probation and
77. 4:39everything like that and then I guess
78. 4:41somehow when he went away some guys
79. 4:44sitting throw away they went to prison
80. 4:48right soldiers they lost the country he
81. 4:52was dealing with some of those guys
82. 4:54because they thought I don't know
83. 4:58something was that he was taking care of
84. 5:00so the money that he used to get him off
85. 5:03of probation he never he never he never

313. 24:46this has been worked for a couple days
314. 24:50now it's not just the first day we're
315. 24:53doing this reference to this case
316. 24:56and we have a lot of information to
317. 25:00support our charge it's just not real
318. 25:03calm a quick little thing so you know
319. 25:08even know when you're lying to us and

325. 25:26it's hard to commit to that but not just
326. 25:32time you know you have anything to say
327. 25:37about this okay well you can talk to
328. 25:42your husband he's not here right now let
329. 25:46him go home he's taking care of the
330. 25:48house and the dog so obviously your
331. 25:52husband's alive you saw him right okay
332. 25:57and did you see that black officer that
333. 26:00was here in handcuffs
334. 26:03well he's an officer okay so does it get
335. 26:09any clearer than that I mean you know
336. 26:17I know sorry but don't people a mistake
337. 26:22sometimes you know the good thing about
338. 26:26this whole thing is that nobody got
339. 26:28drilled all right
340. 26:31the gentlemen they walked in the room he
341. 26:33said it's an officer all right it's not
342. 26:36the first day we've been working this
