"Hill:" "Why'd you leave?" "I didn't know what to do." "Reagan:" "What would have been the responsible thing to do?" "To stop."

"Hill:" "You're under arrest." "For what?" "Hill:" "Hit-and-run." "I didn't hit and run nobody." "Hill:" "Huh?" "I didn't hit nobody." "Hill:" "You asked what you were arrested for, and that's what you're arrested for." "I wasn't driving though." "Hill:" "We-we brought two people here and they he a different story." "They say you were driving." "I was driving?" "Hill:" "Did you switch seats maybe before you hit the car?" "I was not driving." "I was not driving." "Hill:" "Well, that's what you're arrested for." "You asked me, I'm going to be honest." "What the (Bleep)?" "Man, I just got out of jail." "Hill:" "For what?" "For a p.V." "Do you know when I might get out of jail?" "Hill:" "For a p.V.?"

"I've never even been to jail before." "Like, I'm freaking out." "That the thing about it..." "I didn't do nothing." "McAllister:" "You were in a car that crashed into another car, right?" "So I'm getting arrested for something I didn't do?" "McAllister:" "You were there and you were walking away from the scene of a crime for starters, all right?" "I didn't hit..." "I didn't hit the person." "McAllister:" "When I first talked to you, you lied to me." "So we're trying to figure out..." "You're being detained right now till we can figure out what's going on, how's that?" "Okay?" "But he just told me I was being arrested." "McAllister:" "Well, we got witnesses that say you were driving, okay?" "She just said she was driving." "McAllister:" "What she says and what reality is can be two different things, and we're going to figure that out, all right?" "Officer ney Phothiyongsa:" "You have the right to remain silent." "Anything you say, can and will be used against you in a court of law." "You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him present while you're being questioned." "Do you understand your rights?" "I guess." "Phothiyongsa:" "Okay, you want to tell me what happened?" "We were involved in a hit-and-run." "Phothiyongsa:" "Okay, when you say "we," who was driving?" "Well, do I have to answer your questions?" "Phothiyongsa:" "You don't have to answer anything if you don't want to." "This is like the worst thing in the world, man." "Phothiyongsa:" "Okay." "I don't know what to do." "Phothiyongsa:" "But you know" "I'm asking all these questions because I already know the answer." "We have a lot of witnesses, and what I got from the witnesses also, that you guys almost hit a pedestrian." "She was crossing the street." "Is... you guys were fighting prior to h hitting the car." "Me and him?" "Phothiyongsa:" "Yeah." "We weren't... we haven't..." "Phothiyongsa:" "Well, that's what the witneses are telling me." "Okay, well, I'm letting you know that that part isn't true, and I don't know about the pedestrian." "I didn't see nobody in the street." "Phothiyongsa:" "So you weren't driving the car?" "I just don't want to..." "Phothiyongsa:" "Okay, you don't want to tell me, that's fine, okay?" "But you're under arrest also for hindering prosecution, okay?" "I don't know what that is." "Phothiyongsa:" "Well, because you're covering up a felony." "What happened is, your... that... your boyfriend, or whatever, he was driving the car." "He hit the other van." "There was a guy that was on the side of the van, and the car hit van." "He's got injuries to his legs." "So that's a felony hit-and-run, and you're trying to cover up for that, saying that you were the driver." "So that makes that a felony." "Okay." "Phothiyongsa:" "Okay?" "So that's what you're under arrest for." "Officer Jose Santos:" "The weekend's pretty much are all our busy nights." "Everything starts popping off after, you know, 10:00."

"He jumps up, grabs her by the neck, why he doesn't have his dinner ready." "Then he takes off, calls me back, says I'm the problem between those two, which there's absolutely nothing going on between me and her, nothing." "He turns around, he started screaming and hollering, said," ""if you pull this crap, I'm"" "gonna knock the crap out" ""of you."" "He turned around, he comes running in with this." "I got him, I got him on the ground, I took it out of his hands, and did what I had to do." "But evidently he barely caught me with something." "Santos:" "All right." "What you need?"

"Santos:" "You guys get into it every day or just first time?" "No." "I got into it with him once, uh, five months ago, and... he pulled the same thing." "Santos:" "Okay." "So I had to hit him a couple times there." "It's the alcohol." "He come after me with a hammer, that's it, it's over with." "Santos:" "All right."

"Have you fill out some paperwork, and then we'll see if we can get ahold of him." "It's the only way I can get him to learn his lesson." "Santos:" "I understand that." "Somebody comes after you with a hammer, that's not friends anymore." "He was serious." "He would've... he would've used it." "Santos:" "Hediduse it." "He did use it." "Well, if I hadn't got ahold of his hand, it would have been worse." "Deputy Angela McNeal:" "Do you mind coming over here and filling out a statement for me?" "Come over here, it'd be easier." "I mean, if you can see what" "I'm doing." "I was sitting here developing pictures." "McNeal:" "He hit you as well?" "No, he just jerked me back by my hair." "McNeal:" "If you can fill out a witness statement for me, saying what happened to your friend over here." "Santos:" "What are you planning to do now?" "I don't know what to do." "I wish I knew what to do." "I'll give her, I can give her a ride back and forth." "I don't know where I'm gonna go." "I know he's gonna try to come..." "I can give her a ride." "Santos:" "This belongs to him, correct?" "I'm on the frickin' lease, too, like a dummy." "Santos: 'Cause if he comes back here, and altercation comes back..." "He's gonna go off." "He's gonna go off, I know he is." "I'm terrified now." "Santos:" "Okay, all right." "I didn't want to call the cops 'cause I didn't, 'cause" "I know what he's gonna..." "It's gonna put him in a frickin' whirlwind." "I ain't worried about if I'm going to jail." "I've already, my lawyer's already been contacted." "Santos:" "Okay." "All right." "You gotta go inside."

"Santos:" "Good?" "McNeal:" "Yep." "Let's go." "Can I have a word with my girlfriend?" "Harris:" "No, you can't." "McNeal:" "No, you can't." "Can I have my wallet?" "Santos:" "In a little bit." "Do you have anything illegal on your pockets or on your person at all?" "Anything in your pockets?" "No." "No knives, no guns, nothing like that?" "All right, do me a favor, put your legs right here." "You have anything in your pockets I need to know about?" "No, just money." "Santos:" "Just money?" "Just your keys?" "All right, have a seat in here for right now." "McNeal:" "Watch your head." "Harris:" "Sit sideways so you can sit comfortably." "Do you have my girlfriend come talk to me so I can...?" "Santos:" "I-I can't do that." "I can't do that." "She's a victim in this also." "What?" "What, is she pressing charges against me?" "Santos:" "Es, she is." "For what?" "Santos:" "She's pressing charges for battery:" "Domestic violence." "She's alleging that you put your hands on her, choked her out and threw her over, over the side." "And that's what she's alleging, that's what you're going to jail for." "Aggravated battery on the other victim and, uh, domestic violence on your girlfriend." "What was going on with this sandwich thing?" "Nothing, man." "I woke up, and just too much friendliness, you know, for somebody I let in my house." "I didn't do anything, so..."
