:34:00
So you're just what we need.
:34:05
lsn't that what
you want us to believe?

:34:08
That you know what's best?
:34:17
You listen to me, Mrs. Otto...
:34:22
and you listen carefully.
:34:26
l do know what's best,
believe me.

:34:29
As we're sitting here talking,
:34:32
the town...
or the school board...

:34:35
or the manufacturer
of that bus...

:34:39
are lining up a battery
of their own lawyers...

:34:42
to negotiate with people
as grief-stricken as yourselves.

:34:45
That makes me very, very mad.
:34:48
That's why l came
all the way up here.

:34:51
lf everyone had done
their job with integrity,

:34:54
your son would be alive and
safely in school this morning.

:35:00
l promise that l will
pursue and reveal...

:35:05
who it was
did not do their job...

:35:10
who is responsible for this...
:35:13
tragedy.
:35:16
ln your name,
the Walkers' name...

:35:19
in the name of whoever
decides to join us, l will sue.

:35:25
l will sue for negligence
until they bleed.

:35:29
l want that person
to go to jail...

:35:32
for the rest of his life.
:35:35
l want him...
:35:39
to die there.
:35:42
l don't want his money.
:35:45
lt isn't likely that
anyone will go to prison.

:35:49
But he or his company
will pay in other ways,

:35:53
and we must make them pay.
:35:55
Not for the money
or compensation for your loss...

:35:58
that can't be done.
