For years, I had to be, I was the chief investigator telling these guys what we need to do and why we need to do it.

Anthony DiPippoGUEST
And now I, to take, I don't want to say I take a back seat because I am going to be very proactive here.

Anthony DiPippoGUEST
I don't feel like the weight of the world is on me in the sense like the heart of what I was doing for so many years is Paul's heart now.

Anthony DiPippoGUEST
He starts telling me what is a credible account of being with Howard Gombert, and he started talking about what he said about the red car, Josette, uh, the two suckers.

It's, uh, two hours in, and there's, I don't know, 100 of us and, you know, they're doing the spread your cheeks and then it shaved your hair, your eyebrows, all facial hair off.

Anthony DiPippoGUEST
The next thing they did is they made us all undress, all naked in one line, and they threw the shit they call lye, the louser.
