But that video is worthless, according to Detective Ethon Harper, who said it &#8220;cuts out after just a couple of minutes, so there is no recorded interview.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-weight:normal;\">Today I got this voice message from Captain Richard Conklin of the Stamford Police Department: &#8220;From what I understand, the dupe that we made and sent down south of our video cut off for some reason after some time. But our original is OK. I think they&#8217;ve requested another copy of that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-weight:normal;\">Fayette County attorney Lindsey told me he could not confirm what Conklin said. When I asked, &#8220;What would be the explanation for not having bothered to ask Stamford for a good complete copy of the video at the time of the original investigation?&#8221;, Lindsey replied, &#8220;I have no idea.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:12pt;font-weight:normal;\">Detective Harper was separately asked the same two questions.
