Raynard Waits quotes from Bosch

[In interrogation room, to Raynard] Sign here. So... let's start off with an easy one, hmm? Who's the dead guy in the van?

Raynard Waits

I don't know. I... I never saw him before.

You mean before you killed him.

Raynard Waits

I didn't kill him. Somebody must have put him there.

So you were just driving around, dead guy in the back of the van... you didn't know?

Raynard Waits

That's right.

Hmm. You live in Hollywood.

Raynard Waits

Correct.

Where were you going?

Raynard Waits

Echo Park isn't anywhere close to where you live.

No. I drive around and... and hand out fliers for my business in mailboxes.

You weren't going somewhere just to get rid of the body. Did you have sеx with him?

Raynard Waits

I'm not gay.

So we're not gonna find your DNA all up in his... coozy.

Raynard Waits

No. Jesus. No. W- why would you think that?

Why would we think that? I don't know. This thing. What is this used for? Huh. That looks to me like you would flip that over a guy's head and choke him out. Ahh! What do you think?

Raynard Waits

I've never seen that before.

Really? That's funny, because we just found that in your van, along with a stun gun.

Raynard Waits

So, how would you do it? The guy would fasten his seat belt. Then you'd throw that over his head. He gets a little froggy, starts kicking and screaming. :Detective II Johnson ("Barrel": Then you'd taze him. Is that how it went?

Raynard Waits

I don't do that. I... I don't do any of that.

Mr. Waits, we're gonna charge you with murder. So if you have anything to say that'll help clear this up, now is the time to tell us.

No, Your Honor. That's me. My name is Ms. Kell. I'm with the public defender's office, and I'll be representing you in this proceeding. I want to plead not guilty. Well, you don't enter a plea tonight. Uh, the prosecutor will read the charges against you, and the judge will ask you if you understand those charges. You say "yes," and that's it.

Raynard Waits

And what about bail? I've got a van, a small business, and some savings.

Your van was impounded as evidence, and you're charged with murder, Mr. Waits. A bail will be set at a minimum of $1 million. A bond's gonna cost you 10% of said bail, non-refundable. If you had that kind of money, I wouldn't be here.

Raynard Waits

This is unfair. I have to get out. I got a business. There are people I take care of.

No, I'm sorry.

Raynard Waits

I can't stay here. You understand? Do your fսcking job. I got things to do.

Don't we all? You better get yourself under control when the judge calls your case.

Raynard Waits

I need to go away.

Harry Bosch

Go away? You mean, to your magic castle?
