Tell me about Daisy Clayton.
Daisy was a clusterfuck. I wanted to take her, not kill her.
What went wrong?
What didn't? [Scoffs] I mean, the first time, it was a scam. It was a setup. Her boyfriend jumps out of the closet with his fսcking camera and gets my I.D. There's nothing I could do about it.
Must've pissed you off.
Well, I got over it. And next time? [Exhales] I see Daisy on the street, and I talk her into my van. Little street whοre had a knife in her sock.
And?
Well, I had to fսcking defend myself. It was her or me, man. So I grabbed the knife and I-I cut her. It was self-fucking-defense.
You cut her throat in self-defense.
Yeah, that's why I better not be getting no 11 years for this shit. The whole, the whole thing was on her. The sеx was her idea.
14-year-old girl.
[Scoffs] I knew no one would believe me. And? And then I drove around for a while trying to come up with a plan.
Go on.
I'd cleaned one of the Butcher's crime scenes, so I thought I could just sort of slip Daisy into the lineup, you know?
That's enough for now. [Closes folder, Jerry leaves room, Harry closes door, turns off camera and slams both hands on desk] You better hope you serve all 11. Every minute of it. No matter how long or short it is, I'm gonna be there when you get out, waiting for you, you fսck. And you won't see me coming. Count on it.
