It was hard to see in that car.
:50:05
But his window was down.
The driver's window was down.

:50:10
This is how I got such a good look.
:50:19
I really couldn't see anything inside.
:50:21
It was kind of... shadows on the window
and stuff.

:50:25
But when he rolled down the window,
what made his face stand out so.

:50:29
The car was dark blue.
:50:35
He had a beard, mustache...
:50:38
kind of dishwater-blond hair.
:50:43
But, like I said, when he was in court,
he sure looked a lot different.

:50:48
All I could just tell by this and this,
that it was him.

:50:54
I knew that there was some shots over there.
:50:58
But I didn't want to be involved in it...
:51:00
because West Dallas
is a high-crime neighborhood.

:51:03
One of the biggest.
:51:04
He was more scared of it than I was.
:51:07
But when you have black people like that...
:51:10
they don't like getting involved in nothing.
:51:13
That's just common.
:51:15
Like here, nobody wants
to see nothing or hear nothing.

:51:19
And they'll stay completely
in the background.

:51:21
That's why they were having
such a hard time there...

:51:24
finding anybody that would come forward.
:51:26
Because it was in
a totally black neighborhood.

:51:33
She believe in, see somebody done
something wrong she should tell it.

:51:38
'Cause she told on me...
:51:45
a couple of times...
:51:48
that I was hauling drugs out of El Paso.
:51:51
Called the sheriff down there,
going to make me open my trunk.

:51:56
So I ended up opening it,
but there was nothing in it.
