And there is proof to that, that the state is hiding from you.
I was walking with my daughter down Main Street, and we were just a couple of weeks away from moving full-time to Italy, and he was playing piano on the street. And so he finished, and he said hello to her, and she said, and she says, do you know Claire de Lune? And he played Claire de Lune, and it was fantastic. And then days later, he was in a different location by Falls Park playing.
And we chatted quite a while and exchanged contact information. And that was it. And then we left not long after that.
I was unbelievably sad and distraught. And I reached out to him and I told him what was going on because he was just like, oh my God, not your little girl.
There's just no way. The guy's heart is as big as the moon. And what would his motive be?
Throwing his life down the toilet? At his age?
I go, come to Italy. I go, I got a recording. I could use you. So he came and we rehearsed a lot and spent a lot of time together. He's just a really very well-educated, very articulate, very fun, kind person. And we just really hit it off.
Had he ever met Christina? Not once. How would he ever have an occasion to meet her?
Right, yeah. On the day of the murder.
It was two musicians discussing the music project.
They had the text of me saying, you know, to Zach, I got a private phone or something or, you know, use it, harass, whatever kind of thing. But his response was, no, I'm not going to get in trouble for you.
Right, yeah. On the day of the murder.
Okay, yeah, I know. I know that's what they're thinking. It was two musicians discussing the music project he was working on. Simple as that. That's what it is.
There is proof to that, that the state is hiding from you.
Yes, I did. I wanted different people, such as the Grand Ad Litem, to have access to this information that clearly demonstrated that Christina Parcell was a danger to children and her own daughter.
Yes, I did. I needed to do something to save her, and yet feeling this incredible reluctance to do the one thing that I knew would save her because of how terrible I knew it would be to do it.
I laid my bike down in the driveway. I took a bunch of roses. And I walked up to the door and I rang the doorbell.
A woman came to the front. So I told her that I had a delivery for Lutina Purcell, her sister. And she told me that Lutina wasn't home. So I handed her the roses. and I took the revolver out and I pointed it at her and I told her to be quiet and to go back into the house. She began to try to fight back and during this period of time the roses had dropped and the petals and stems had scattered.
So I pulled out the knife I was wearing and I just kept striking her and striking her until finally we fell on the floor and I stopped striking her when she stopped struggling.
I looked in a mirror before I left and I saw that she had scratched my face in the struggle. And of course I realized that this could leave DNA. So I used the paint thinner to try to clean her hands. I do smell something.
