I have an official transcript of the 2000 interviews and will share the more interesting bits here - feel free jin in with comments. i will post 5-10 bits then move to a new thread. Lots here to talk about. 3 16 Q. (By Mr. Kane) Okay, Mr. Ramsey, 17 we've spoken before for quite a period of 18 time. When I first spoke with you earlier, 19 I explained to you that, if ever there were 20 going to be an intruder on trial, the 21 defense is going to be that you did it. Do 22 you remember that? 23 A. I remember that, but I am not 24 here to prove my innocence. I am here to 25 find the killer of my daughter. My comments will be in bold print. This is the opening statement in the interview - and it really did set up the mood for the meetings. Lin had agreed to have the Ramseys come in to discuss things not covered by other interviews - they expected that they would be helping the police get the investigation on the right track - - but as you will see, that is not what happened. The cops did not take advantage of the time to look at everything - they were really interested in "nailing the Ramseys".
You might remember that after these interviews were completed, a very short section was released - the news carried a bit where Kane and Lin went at it... well, it is time to know more.
