A critical piece of evidence was that he was convicted of family violence and he had

Hi everybody, it's franceyhakes, former state and federal prosecutor Jim.

We're back together. I can actually see you and I'm back from vacation.

Yes, well I know you're very happy to be actually able to see me and I'm sure the break you

that you had was well deserved and all that stuff.

Well, you know, a little bird did tell me, Jim, that you gave me a little bit of a hard time

even when I wasn't here.

Have no idea what you're talking about franceyhakes because I was nothing but gracious with respect to you

and your, I don't know, untimely absence.

That's not exactly what I heard but I will accept it from you, Jim.

Okay, whatever you say, whatever you say.

And what this today is?

Hi, I'm Jim Clemente. I'm a Jim Clemente's brother and I'm a former police officer,

also retired FBI agent. I worked on a counterterrorism side of the house and worked a street crime

as a cop in St. Louis metropolitan police department.
