marijuana or something.
:09:03
I didn't know what they
were searching for,

:09:04
to tell you the truth.
:09:06
And I thought
it was a big mistake.

:09:10
One of the first things
we went to was his office.

:09:13
And I remember just as I was
about to pull out a drawer,

:09:18
Mr. Friedman came
rushing in and said,

:09:21
"Wait. I'll get that for you. "
:09:22
And said, "Here.
:09:24
This is all that's there. "
:09:26
And it was one piece of mail
from the Netherlands,

:09:29
but it was child pornography.
:09:31
And he said, "That's it.
:09:33
That's all there is. "
:09:35
And I said, "Well, that's
great, Mr. Friedman,

:09:36
but we're still gonna search. "
:09:37
And he goes, "I don't
understand why you don't go

:09:40
when I tell you
that's all there is?"

:09:43
And I said, "Well,
we don't believe you. "

:09:45
Well, it's not something he
sort of left lying around

:09:47
on the kitchen table.
:09:49
He wasn't proud of it,
and he kept it hidden.

:09:53
He had his office downstairs.
:09:56
It wasn't, like, right there.
:09:58
You had to go downstairs
:10:00
and around the corner
to get to his office.

:10:02
We used to have
someone that cleaned.

:10:05
He says, "Don't let
her clean in here.

:10:07
It's okay. I don't want
my things disturbed. "

:10:10
So all right.
:10:12
I never went in there.
:10:14
Then one of our inspectors
moved the piano

:10:16
that was in that office.
:10:17
And that's where his stash
of magazines were held,

:10:21
behind the piano.
:10:24
And this was Arnold's secret.
:10:27
He liked to look
at pictures of boys.

:10:32
And it's not that he
acted on these things.

:10:35
He just wanted to look at these
pictures and meditate or

:10:45
And these are listings
of the magazines

:10:47
that were found
behind the piano.

:10:50
"Young Boys & Sodomy. "
:10:51
"Incest Case Histories. "
:10:54
Something called
"Chicken Pickin's Magazine. "
