I haven’t seen Inside Edition or Hard Copy. I asked my wife
today because I knew that! was gonna be interviewed by you

something about this being on Hard Copy.” And she said
S “No, I haven’t watched it.”
Det. Carrasquillo: . So none of that stuff has influenced you?
Pemberton:
I never watch TV hardly at all.
Det. Carrasquillo:
Okay. So... so what you’re telling me is just strictly based
on.. .on your personal observations that night?
