Now today is May the 16th 1996 1030 1035. Okay very how do you spell your last name?

S A. We're in an interrogation room with L A P D Detective Ed Ye

and one of his partners officer Jean Sir.

Sir speaks Kmy, so he's translating.

The detectives are interviewing someone who was said to be in the alley on the night of the

murder, Vereic Sirique.

A lot of people connected to the case kind of mispronounce his name, but according to his brother, it's

Varic.

He and his friend Timmy allegedly gave the three defendants a ride from the crime scene to Tbones House.

All of the interrogation room excerpts were going to hear this episode come from official transcripts. It's all voiced by actors.

And this is from the L. A. P. D.

third interrogation of Varick.

So basically what you're saying is when we first brought you in here last time, you just estimate you weren't sure.

Right, I wasn't sure.

It's hard from a transcript to know what the intonations are.

When Varick says, right, I wasn't sure, is that right, I wasn't sure, or right, I wasn't sure? How things are said can be just as important as what's said.

So basically, now you remember that actually when, see in the car,

remember when we're driving in right now?

Right. You said in the car that you were walking out to the back of the alley right

after Timmy used the phone in the restroom as you were walking out to the alley okay

you heard boom boom boom right As you heard boom boom.

You were almost to the car already and now looked up, am I correct?
