They explained they'd like her to come downtown to talk.

Jen is thoroughly wigged out.

She says she can't right now.

She's busy maybe later.

Then Jen and a friend go see Jay.

He's at work at a video store.

She tells Jay, the police want to talk to me.

What do I do?

At trial, Jen says, quote, he told me to go down there and tell them what I knew.

Tell them enough to keep me out of trouble and tell them to go see Jay.

Send them his way.

So Jen goes downtown to see the cops later that night, and she lies to them, says she doesn't know anything.

I've seen the detective's notes from that interview, and they're remarkably uninteresting.

But by the time she left that night, Jen thought it was possible she was about to get charged.

At trial, she said the last thing Detective McGillivary said to her that night was, quote, everyone's a suspect and no one's a suspect.

So the next day, she goes back to the detectives.

This time, she's got reinforcements.

She's got an attorney with her, plus her mom.

They turn on a tape recorder.

Who, what, where, when, why?
