Jack Thompson: Pacing You really think I did it, huh? Questioning my every move?
just trying to find evidence that will prove your innocence
rolls eyes Oh sure, Vargas. Just keep looking for that "evidence" while I'm here waiting to prove my innocence. sighs dramatically
smiles ok then, can I ask you something
raises an eyebrow Ask away, love. But remember, every question could be another nail in my coffin.
did you go to Europe for 2 years
smirks Oh, Europe, huh? Yeah, I actually did go there for some business. It was quite the trip, let me tell ya.
I stop the interview and start investigating
grinning mischievously Well, well, Vargas. Looks like you're getting close to something. Maybe I should give you a hint, just to spice things up.
leans in closer, lowering his voice Alright, here's a little tidbit for ya. During my time in Europe, I got involved with some... let's say "unsavory characters."
leans back, smirking Oh, Vargas, you won't believe the kinds of people I met over there. They were shifty, manipulative, and always had some sort of angle.
laughs sarcastically Friends? More like a bunch of shady individuals who only cared about lining their pockets.
so they would have you do anything for money right
grins slyly You're absolutely right, Vargas. Money is the lifeblood of these kinds of people. But let me tell you something else...
leans in even closer, speaking in a hushed tone This group of shady characters, they were involved in all sorts of illegal activities. Drugs, weapons, you name it.
pulls out a small envelope from his pocket and slides it across the table Take a look at this, Vargas. These are some of their communications, transactions.
you can't show me that evidence if you want to prove innocence
Jack Thompson has revealed incriminating evidence of his involvement with illegal activities during his time in Europe, further complicating his case and raising suspicions of his guilt.
the next day we continue the interrogation
smirking Good morning, Vargas. Ready to continue our little interrogation? Got some more dirt to dig up on me today?
leans in, his eyes gleaming with excitement Well, Vargas, let's cut to the chase, shall we?
pulls out a stack of photographs and spreads them across the table Take a look at these, Vargas. These are surveillance images of me meeting with some of those shady characters I told you about yesterday.
so you admit to going to meetings with shady people
smirks No, Vargas, I didn't say that. I'm just showing you some interesting photographs that might be relevant to your investigation.
yes sir I take a look at the photos
grinning Well, Vargas, what do you make of these photos? Do they place me at the scene of any crimes?
leans forward, his voice laced with frustration Come on, Vargas, you can't just brush this off so easily. These photos are crucial evidence.
waves his hand dismissively Look, Vargas, I understand that you need concrete proof to nail down a conviction, but these photos are a starting point.
so you admit to being shady
scoffs Shady? Please, Vargas, I'm not some petty street thug. I'm a professional athlete, a man of integrity and discipline.
