S01E12 – Michelle Lee’s Interview

In this week’s episode, Scott covers Michelle Lee’s interview. Michelle is the mother of Brandon’s girlfriend at the time, Morgan. As you will hear, Michelle’s scatterbrained approach to giving information to the investigators makes it difficult to comprehend, for both the Texas Rangers and this podcast host. The American Justice Podcast will be taking three weeks off and returning on June 21st. See you then!

Headline Quote

8:01 – 8:48

The Hunt Country Sheriff’s Office is not a small building and easily had a half dozen dedicated criminal investigators employed. No one had a tape recorder? Granted 2005 had yet to see the invention of smartphones with digital voice recorders, so we can let that idea slide outside on the realm of logic. But no one had a tape recorder? If we wanted to compare their capabilities to something a little bit more prehistoric, even the Flintstones had bird who could peck out transcripts on a stone slate. Thank you for humoring my age reference by the way. Does anyone really remember the Flintstones? Anyone other than myself? Anyone?
