And we got a tip that they were going to be running that photo of Amber in the red dress and Scott in the tux on the whatever edition it was that came out.

Well, of course, you know, out of consideration for both families, you know, Scott's family down in San Diego and, of course, Sharon and the family in Modesto, we knew that we couldn't.

You know, let that happen.

And, you know, they drop their groceries and freak out.

So we knew we were going to have to tell both families about this.

So Craig Grogan and Phil Owen went down to San Diego to tell Lee and Jackie about this.

And then, of course, Al and I, we called Sharon into the office to tell her about it.

And, you know, she came down there with Ron Gransky.

And, you know, and that was one of the heartbreaking things of the whole case.

You know, they they stay with you.

But she came down and they knew that there was something up because we didn't generally call them to come down to our office.

But they came down.

It was late afternoon.

And they had a they had a scheduled interview with Greta.

that was going to go on after our meeting.
