In this bonus episode of Ransom, we share more of our interview with the Ransom caller Irene Flores.

All right, so I'm outside the address where I think Irene Flores lives, sort of drove in, looped around, and now I'm parked at a church that's a little way

down the street in part because they ended up giving me this very flashy looking rental

car and I don't know I feel sort of weird about that and yeah

hopefully it's the right place and hopefully no one pulls a gun out on me or something.

It looked like it was kind of a little trailer home complex out here in Perlin, Texas.

I guess the main thing that scares me is it had these private property signs but I'm

just gonna walk over knock and what am I gonna say? As I walked closer to Flores' trailer home,

I realized that the front door faced away from the road and was fenced off.

I thought for sure that that was the sign she didn't want visitors, but actually Flores was quite welcoming.

The fence I learned was for her dogs.

Because of my little dog, we put up that fence.

At first Flores wasn't sure she wanted to rehash old memories, but she ended up having a lot to say.

We started off discussing how she knew Hilton.

I've known him for years.

And was that like, did you work with him in the security business or?

In the security business, he would get me good jobs, right?

And he would say he was a friend. He would say, hey, can you do this, like cook something like enchiladas, whatever, a dinner, right? But that, I considered him a friend.

Do you remember the first time you met?

I was looking for a job.

Oh God, I can't even remember what year. He worked for security guard services.

Or he was like an area supervisor. He had an area he worked. And so I went and I got a job.
