that he was the one whoe1 came with the scheme and it wasn t knownñr or approved by the form president or anyone else,fxy% saying, that s not true. ç agreement with the government that this is somethingñi that w sort of,ñr you know, a catch-and-kill program, and started with karen mcdougal, and so that would go, i think, a long way to rebuttingaabuzñr testimony of mr. costello to thr extent that s what he said to the grand jurors, and i also agree with karen, who s incrediblyjf knowledgeable, thai d. want to have the time between an as short as possible because ofq security concerns. that just seemsw3 having bee involved in a case withñrñr9÷0zo concerns, that is something you take incredibly seriously. yeah. and one last question to you, andrew. we have somexd developments outf fulton county, georgia, today as well.!u■
