Det. Carrasquillo: Well, yeah...I just wanted to make sure that.
.
..that what you’re telling me was not tainted by the reports....
Pemberton:
|
No... no.
|
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
That.. .that you read in the paper or the articles...
|
Pemberton:
|
They’re not.
|
|
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
Did you see Inside Edition or Hard Copy?
|
Pemberton:
|
I haven’t seen Inside Edition or Hard
Copy. I asked my wife
|
|
|
today because I knew that! was gonna be interviewed by you
|
|
today. I said “Have you seen Hard Copy... somebody said
|
|
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?
Pemberton:
|
Right... right.
|
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
And your medical opinion.., and your medical training?
|
Pemberton:
|
Right. Of course, there again.. .you know.., forensics is for
|
those guys and anything medical is for doctors. But !‘m just
speaking as a nurse and what...what my observations have
been and what! know.
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
That’s.. .that’s all we’re after.
|
Pemberton:
|
My impression is that she had been sick for a while.
|
Det. Carrasquillo:
|
.
Well, like you said, your impression was.. .when.
.
.when the
|
van.. .when you walked up to the van, she had been dead for
awhile.
