Q. What was your understanding as to Chris Wolf's employment at the time you first began to
investigate him in January of 1997?

A. Again, as I said, just what Jackie Dilson had supplied verbally.

Q. What was that?

A. And that was, I think she described him as either a current or a one-time exotic dancer.

Q. What did she say that meant? Did you say what does an exotic dancer do, Ms. Dilson; did you
ask her that?

A. No; I assumed it was a stripper.

Q. Did you ever to your knowledge with the Boulder Police Department while thoroughly
investigating Mr. Wolf ever obtain any indication that he might have been involved in illegal sexual acts
for money?

A. Again, he wasn't cooperative with me and Gosage in our attempt, so I don't know that.

Q. But you stayed on him for a year according to your book?

A. He remained on this list, if you will, for approximately a year.

Q. And you stayed on him because you put up with Jackie Dilson for a year you said in your book,
didn't you?

A. Two parts, yes, I put up with Jackie Dilson for a year, but Chris Wolf was -- that assignment was
reassigned.

Q. Well, but again relying on your other police officers, did you ever learn anything about any
information compiled by the thorough investigation efforts on Chris Wolf that would in any way indicate
that Mr. Wolf might have performed such acts as, let's say, go into an all-male strip party and allowing
members at the party, men, to perform oral sex on him?

A. No, if you're suggesting if I was aware that there were allegations that Mr. Wolf was engaged in
male prostitution or hustling, I was unaware of that until now.

Q. I'm not making an allegation. I'm asking you what your investigation found. I am asking you if
there was any indication of any such conduct by Mr. Wolf. Any indication that Mr. Wolf ever worked
at a photography company where he took pictures of children, team sports ages as young as four to 15,
14, 15 years of age; did you get any information about that?

A. Again, I was not successful with my attempts at interviewing Mr. Wolf, so, no, I did not know
that.

Q. Did you ever ask -- in the thorough investigation, though, that your officers that you rely on
conducted, did you ever find out whether there was any indication that Mr. Wolf might be a user of
illegal drugs at the time frame of '94, '95, '96?

A. Again, I have told you, I don't know the breadth or depth of Weinheimer's investigation prior to
clearing him.

Q. But relying on Weinheimer in this case and others as you did, right --

A. (Deponent nods head.)

Q. -- you would have fully expected Detective Weinheimer in a thorough investigation to get those
kinds of information, or at least to get details about Mr. Wolf's lifestyle and prior employment and
questions about whether he used drugs. Those would be part of a thorough investigation into this man's
background, wouldn't they, sir?

A. He may have.

Q. Isn't that what you expected him to do?

A. Possibly unless he had other reasons to discount Mr. Wolf.

Q. Well, sir, if you had been in charge of Mr. Wolf's investigation that you say you were not, if he
had been assigned to you, you would have gone back and done that type of a thorough background
investigation, wouldn't you?

A. Not necessarily, Mr. Wood. If, for example, in the first day, a detective was able to corroborate
an alibi for Mr. Wolf, then you likely would not have gone to all this extra trouble.

Q. Except here you know that would be impossible since the only alibi he could have offered would
be to have been in the house with a woman who thought he was involved in the murder?

A. No. Because Ms. Dilson made that allegation. I did not have his side of the story. He may very
well have put himself at a different location with an independent witness.

Q. Apparently that hadn't happened here because you know that into 1998 Mr. Wolf was still being
investigated by the Boulder Police Department as a suspect in this case giving non-testimonial evidence,
hair, fiber, handwriting, right?

A. Correct.

Q. That would indicate the alibi didn't get him off the hook in terms of investigation for over a year,
wouldn't it, sir?

A. Correct.

MR. DIAMOND: You're assuming there was an alibi. I don't know if there is any mention of that --

MR. WOOD: Yeah, I'm just following up on the question of whether he speculated there might be an
alibi. Listen, we don't need to waste time, you know. You've got somewhere to be at 6:30 in terms of
some friends picking you up. Let's go ahead.

MR. DIAMOND: Thank you.

MR. WOOD: I'm trying to make that time frame.
