—Dick Brickell | 2005

When interviewing [Duane] explain to him the case will not just “go away.” His life from this point forward will be miserable unless he deals with it now. He will always wonder when authorities will be knocking on his door or if he is being followed…. Remind him that [Betty] was on medications for bipolar disorder. She took things too seriously; specifically, Catholicism, Judaism, and Stephanie’s abortion. Her [Betty’s] demeanor changed during the marriage, which added stress to the whole family. The marriage was not a good marriage. [Minimize] that he is a cold-blooded killer. Describe the case as manslaughter instead…. Never let [him] believe he has any room to dispute the facts of the case or [doubt] that the case will continue forward with or without his input.
