I hope Matthew Shepard...
:55:08
...as he was tied to that fence...
:55:10
...that he had time to refIect
on a moment when...
:55:15
...somebody had spoken
the Word of the lord to him...
:55:20
...and that before he sIipped into a coma...
:55:24
...he had a chance to refIect on his IifestyIe.
:55:33
Thank you, Reverend,
I appreciate your speaking with me.
:55:37
AII right. We better go.
:55:49
I Iet him say that to me.
:55:52
I Iet him say that to me,
and I didn't say anything back.
:56:22
At midnight, on Monday, October 12...
:56:27
...Matthew Shepard's bIood pressure
began to drop.
:56:31
We immediateIy notified the famiIy,
who were aIready at the hospitaI.
:56:38
At 12:53 a.m...
:56:41
...Matthew Shepard died.
:56:45
His famiIy was at his bedside.
:56:48
The famiIy did reIease
the foIIowing statement.
:56:52
They again asked me to express
their sincerest gratitude...
:56:58
...to the entire worId...
:56:59
...for the overwheIming response
to their son.
