So, all of that is a pretty far cry from how Alec was talking about this incident
00:00:06
to the cops the night of Paul's murder, >> right? And because Alec isn't just some
00:00:11
guy talking to police like, he is used to dealing with law enforcement, used to dealing with judges, the whole system.
00:00:17
He knows the right things to say. He knows the right way to position himself to make sure things get handled quietly.

legally into the case of a dead teenager in the area. I'm going to take one more

00:00:53
the most questions about. >> I think it's the one that like most people have the most questions about
00:00:58
because none of the facts seem to be matterof fact.
