It was just insulting. It was insulting to Alex Preddy's family. I had explained that when I talked to his parents the day after he was killed that They [the family of Alex Preddy] had told me directly that that hurt them more than anything that had happened since they learned that their son was dead. And so I felt that I had to bring that up to her and ask her if she wanted to say anything to the family. (08:02–08:12)
