:46:05
So Arnold's mother
had these two boys,
:46:08
and they were really on
welfare. I don't know.
:46:12
They lived in
a basement apartment.
:46:15
Evidently, there
was one bedroom,
:46:18
and the boys slept in
the bedroom with the mother.
:46:23
We shared, all 3 of us,
not in the same bed,
:46:26
but we all shared
the same room, big rooms.
:46:29
And rather than put a,
apparently
:46:31
the living room
was the living room,
:46:33
and then there was
the kitchen,
:46:34
so we put all the beds
in the one room.
:46:37
And that she dated a lot of men
and would bring the men
:46:42
into the apartment, and they
would have sex in the bed
:46:48
while Arnold was
there listening.
:46:53
And Arnold said that,
because he saw his mother
:46:57
in bed with a man, that
when he was adolescent,
:47:02
he was experimenting,
as all children do,
:47:04
and he had sex with his brother
in bed or something like that.
:47:10
And to me,
:47:12
that's not what all children do.
:47:15
Arnold sent me this right around
when he started writing me,
:47:18
and it's called "My Story,"
and it was written in 1988.
:47:21
And I think it was his attempt
to talk about the case
:47:24
but also talk about the case
in the context of his life.
:47:27
And it starts out, it says,
:47:28
"This story goes back 50 years
to when I was a child. "
:47:31
He says, "When I
reached adolescence
:47:33
I sought out partners for
my emerging sexuality.
:47:37
My first partner, when I was
13, was my 8-year-old brother.
:47:40
I had overt sexual
relations with him
:47:42
over a period of a few years. "
:47:46
I know that my brother has said
that he messed around with me
:47:49
when I was a kid.
:47:50
And I don't remember any of it.
:47:52
I don't remember anything.
:47:54
I have nothing up here
:47:57
that has me yelling or
screaming or crying
