[REDACTED] was wearing a white shirt with tie and no jacket. He was taller than [REDACTED] somewhat and was wearing a full beard that was short. He said that they understood that I was looking for them all over town and I said that I was simply asking questions. They indicated that they had enough publicity about the matter already and that my asking questions around town was ruining their reputations. I then reminded [REDACTED],that in fact he had gone to the Bremerton Sun after he had spoken with you. [REDACTED] was somewhat flustered by that comment and then turned toward [REDACTED] and said that [REDACTED] was certainly not looking for any publicity. [REDACTED] put on a great show of appearing hurt and having his ego damaged. They were quite upset about my asking questions about them around town and they said that [REDACTED] [REDACTED] said that he would see what he could do about stopping me from [REDACTED] and he said that he would do this by asking his attorney what could be done. It should be noted that [REDACTED] was served coffee at the bar and that the waitress who is known as [REDACTED] said to [REDACTED] when he came in I'll get you your coffee. [REDACTED] was served a drink. I asked both [REDACTED] about what had happened in regards to the whole affair. They indicated that they had expected to hear from you since May 2, 1972, and I believe that this is the date that they were both arrested. He said that if you were being watched or felt that you were being watched, he felt that you could have certainly sent someone else in your place to speak with them. I told them that we had contemplated this move but figured that it would not pay off insofar as they were both charged with criminal counts and would not discuss anything with us. They did state, however, that if I would have simply contacted them when I arrived in town that they would have told me everything if I simply would have contacted them first. I then pointed out to [REDACTED] that there were many inconsistencies in [REDACTED] that he had given to you. He said that you had gotten [REDACTED] and I said that I could prove that his background did not match the [REDACTED] comment was, "so what".
