1:06:00
right after computer class
and not one kid is crying
1:06:04
not one kid tells
his mother or father
1:06:05
what happened in class
1:06:07
not one kid says anything?
1:06:09
I find that so incredible
1:06:11
that Jesse's story
that nothing happened
1:06:13
to me was more believable
than the police version
1:06:16
of these horrific acts.
1:06:23
Jesse and I went
1:06:25
we flew in August of 1988
1:06:28
all the way
to Madison, Wisconsin
1:06:31
where we rented a car
and drove 90 miles
1:06:35
to some town that I couldn't
possibly give you the name of
1:06:38
to a federal prison.
1:06:40
Who knew more about this case
then Arnold Friedman?
1:06:42
He knew more about
it than Jesse.
1:06:44
I had to wait 40 minutes
1:06:47
because Arnie was either
playing tennis or golf
1:06:51
I don't remember what it was.
1:06:52
I was outraged.
1:06:55
It was a visiting room.
1:06:58
Jesse was out in the waiting
room at this point
1:07:03
and this man had this little boy
in there who was his son
1:07:08
or his stepson,
I don't know
1:07:10
but the child was about
4 or 5 years old
1:07:13
and they were in the table
right next to us.
1:07:15
And I was interviewing Arnie
1:07:18
and all of a sudden
he leaned over and asked me
1:07:20
if I could ask
the corrections officer
1:07:22
or whoever was in charge
in the room
1:07:24
if we could get another table.
1:07:26
And I asked him why,
and he said
1:07:31
"That little boy over there
bouncing on his father's lap
1:07:34
is getting me very excited. "
1:07:38
It took me about 15 minutes
to regain my composure.
1:07:41
I remember that
like it was yesterday.
1:07:43
I was shocked
1:07:44
'cause even though I was
involved in the case now
1:07:46
for two months
1:07:47
and even though
I had studied pedophilia
1:07:50
and I knew what these men
did to little boys
1:07:53
I had never heard somebody
actually say it.
1:07:57
And I was absolutely disgusted.
