...what their mom does for a Iiving.
1:11:08
Just a minute.
1:11:10
It's the decision of the
County's Attorney's Office...

1:11:12
...that this wiII be tried
as a death penaIty case.

1:11:15
That's aII I have for you now. Thank you.
1:11:18
How can I protest
if the Shepards want McKinney dead?

1:11:21
I just can't interfere in that.
1:11:23
But on a personaI IeveI,
I knew Aaron in grade schooI.

1:11:26
He wasn't caIIed Aaron. We caIIed him A.J.
1:11:29
How can we put A.J. McKinney to death?
1:11:32
I think right now
our most important teachers...

1:11:36
...must be RusseII Henderson
and Aaron McKinney.

1:11:38
They have to be our teachers.
1:11:40
How did you Iearn?
1:11:41
What did we do as a society
to teach you that?

1:11:45
I don't know if many peopIe
wiII Iet them be their teacher.

1:11:48
I think it wouId be wonderfuI
if the judge said:

1:11:51
''In addition to the sentence...
1:11:53
''...you must teII your story.
1:11:56
''You must teII your story.''
1:11:59
This is a tape recording of the confession
given by Aaron James McKinney...

1:12:03
...to me as detective in charge
of the investigation.

1:12:06
This confession was recorded
two days after the attack.

1:12:14
-So, you guys go to the Fireside, right?
-Yeah.

1:12:19
Where do you go after you leave
the Fireside?

1:12:22
Some Kid wanted a ride home.
1:12:25
What's he Iook Iike?
1:12:28
like a queer.
1:12:31
-He Iooks Iike a queer?
-Yeah, Iike a fag, you know?

1:12:36
Okay, so, how'd you meet him?
1:12:38
The fag? The queer guy?
1:12:41
We were meeting at the bar. He asked us
what we were drinking and doing.

1:12:46
So what happened after you met him?
1:12:50
He wanted a ride home, and...
1:12:53
...I just thought, ''The dude's drunK,
let's just taKe him home.''

1:12:56
When did you and Russ talK about
jacKing him up?

1:12:59
