when we came in the bedroom... I said “Benetta, what happened to that box under the bed that you were going through.. .what happened to it?” She said “I don’t know.”
|
|
And I said “You know.. .it’s strange to me that a girl would
|
give 18 years of her life and this few rags that’s left
here... and this little bit of furniture and $11 in her savings account is all she has left to show for 18 years of her life.” I said “That’s pretty sad Benetta.” And she had no answer for me. We walked back into the other room. Her husband was sitting right behind me. She was sitting kinda like you are. And she.. .they said she had donated $3,450 to Winter Wonderland. And I said “Another thing Benetta, don’t tell me that a girl would donate $3,450 to this Winter Wonderland when she has $11 in her savings account. I said “I don’t believe that for one minute.” And Brian Anderson came and brought her a check for $3,450.

Det. Carrasquillo:
|
Is that the check that Brian Anderson gave to...
|
|
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
It had nothing to do with a.. .with a savings account?
|
|
Carlson:
|
Heavens no. We tried to go to the bank.. .tried to find
|
out.. .you know. ..if she.., anything about her account. Well, some guy is on her account, so they couldn’t give us any information. But we had the bank statements and there was no money in the account. But he continued to use that account even after his death. So his name is Kurt Paine. You’ve got his address.
I hope you question the hell out of him. I shouldn’t have said that.
