| Has anyone heard the tapescript of the police interrogation?! They've been playing it over and over on CNN. Not many places in the world could a cop talk to a Senator like that! Good for him, he wasn't taking any shit from Craig, and it led directly to the guilty plea:
Excerpts: Quote:
"CRAIG: I don't, ah, I am not gay. I don't do these kinds of things and ...
KARSNIA: It doesn't matter. I don't care about sexual preference or anything like that. Here's your stuff back sir. Um, I don't care about sexual preference.
CRAIG: I know you don't. You're out to enforce the law.
KARSNIA: Right.
CRAIG: But you shouldn't be out to entrap people either.
KARSNIA: This isn't entrapment.
CRAIG: All right.
KARSNIA: Um, you, you're skipping some parts here, but what, what about your hand?
CRAIG: What about it? I reached down, my foot like this. There was a piece of paper on the floor, I picked it up.
KARSNIA: OK.
CRAIG: What about my hand?
KARSNIA: Well, you're not being truthful with me. I'm kinda disappointed in you senator. I'm real disappointed in you right now...
KARSNIA: I know you're not going to fight me. But that's not the point. I would respect you and I still respect you. I don't disrespect you but I'm disrespected right now, and I'm not trying to act like I have all kinds of power or anything, but you're sitting here lying to a police officer.
CRAIG: I, I, I ...
———
KARSNIA: I am trained in this, and I know what I am doing. And I say you put your hand under there and you're going to sit there and ...
CRAIG: I admit I put my hand down...
CRAIG: I reached down with my right hand like this to pick up a piece of paper.
KARSNIA: Was your gold ring on your right hand at anytime today?
CRAIG: Of course not. Try to get it off. Look at it.
KARSNIA: OK. Then it was your left hand. I saw it with my own eyes.
CRAIG: All right, you saw something that didn't happen.
KARSNIA: Embarrassing, embarrassing. No wonder why we're going down the tubes."
