So, of course, when the body showed up, that got everything jumped up into high gear.
So arrest warrant was put together.
We had a surveillance going on for Scott down in San Diego by agents from Department of Justice, Ernie Lamone and his crew down there, because we didn't have enough cops to help out on this.
So we used help from a lot of different agencies throughout the state.
So we drove down to San Diego and we hooked up with those guys and then we were going to make the arrest the next day.
when the DNA results were going to be released.
Bill Lockyer was the attorney general in California at the time, and he was going to be in charge of releasing those results to the media and to the public.

I know what you have here, but don't execute this arrest warrant until you get those DNA results, if you can.

Well, you know, we couldn't rule that out.
I mean, he knew San Diego well.
He grew up down there.
And, you know, that's not very far from Mexico.
We didn't know if he was if he thought the cops were after him or if he thought that you guys were after him, you know, trying to, you know, get an interview or, you know, dye their hair for us, John.
