… about your decision and what the DPS director said.

Speaker 2: (00:00)
How are you, sir?

Speaker 3: (00:03)
How’s it going?

Speaker 2: (00:03)
Good. I’m Pete. Nice to meet you.

Speaker 3: (00:04)
Nice to meet you.

Speaker 1: (00:05)
We want to talk to you about the decision and what [inaudible 00:00:07]

Speaker 2: (00:08)
But just to let you all know, and I just spoke with [inaudible 00:00:10].

Speaker 1: (00:09)
Oh, I know you did.

Speaker 2: (00:10)
You’re not blocking me, are you?

Speaker 1: (00:11)
No, no, no.

Speaker 3: (00:11)
No, no, no.

Speaker 1: (00:12)
Turn this way.

Speaker 2: (00:13)
No, just so you all know, obviously, we’re not going to release anything. We have people in our community being buried soon. We’re going to be respectful.

Speaker 1: (00:22)
I just want your reaction to the Director McCraw saying that you were responsible for the decision to go into that room. How do you explain yourself to the parents?

Speaker 2: (00:30)
We’re going to be respectful to the family.

Speaker 1: (00:31)
I understand that, but you have an opportunity to explain yourself to the parents.

Speaker 2: (00:35)
And just so you know, we’re going to do that eventually, obviously.

Speaker 1: (00:38)
When?

Speaker 2: (00:38)
And whenever this is done, and we let the families quit grieving, then we’ll do that, obviously. And just so everybody knows.

Speaker 1: (00:47)
Do you understand how the family feels?

Speaker 2: (00:47)
We’ve been in contact with DPS every day, just so you all know.

Speaker 1: (00:50)
They say you’re not. They say that you’re not cooperating.

Speaker 2: (00:52)
I’ve been on the phone with them every day.

Speaker 1: (00:54)
They say you’re not cooperating. Just two seconds.

Speaker 2: (00:57)
Just so you know, we’ve been talking to them every day. I appreciate y’all.

Speaker 1: (00:58)
What is your reaction to that?

Speaker 2: (01:01)
Y’all have a good day.

Speaker 1: (01:01)
What is your reaction, sir?
