[23:55:49] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): Mai, you've been read your rights and we walked you through the situation.
 
[23:56:26] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): Like I told you there is evidence that demonstrates you were in fact driving Swifty's car that day so there's no point denying that anymore.
 
[23:57:03] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): Depending on your level of cooperation, we can defuse that situation and perhaps even avoid jail time altogether.
 
[23:57:16] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): Swifty's back here because he was being dishonest.
 
[23:57:49] Maitea Castrejon says: ... what— what more do you wanna know? I— I drove it. I drove the car. You heard it from the /rat/ himself. That— that fucking bitch...
 
[23:58:03] Maitea Castrejon says: You know /everything/.
 
[23:58:03] > Kiante Walters nods his head along.
 
[23:58:15] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): I told you last time. I don't believe you killed those two people. You were dragged into this while trying to help a friend.
 
[23:58:30] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): You saw what they said down there. Even the Sergeant agrees with that statement.
 
[23:59:05] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): At what point did either Swifty or Lissa mention the murder?
 
[23:59:55] Maitea Castrejon says: I wasn't mentioned anything about a murder. Just like he said to your buddy. I was told to pick her up— didn't ask questions. I went, we picked her up, I took the car and left.
 
[00:00:19] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon): Why did you leave with the car despite those two staying back?
 
[00:00:49] Maitea Castrejon says: I don't know where Melissa is. I haven't seen her since that day. I took the car and dipped. Why would I stay there.
 
[00:01:05] Alejandro Vega says: You see Mai. You're contradicting yourself.
 
[00:01:18] Alejandro Vega says: Last time I called you here, you said you saw her with a broken leg.
 
[00:01:37] Alejandro Vega says: Lissa's injury was treated after you left.
 
[00:01:59] Maitea Castrejon says: Just like Noah said. He picked up her and carried her down. She was screaming left and right. "My legs broken! It's fucking broken!" A car pulled up with lights and I booked it.
 
[00:02:47] Alejandro Vega says: Last night you mentioned the leg injury. I checked with the hospitals and there was no record of Melissa being admitted. 
 
[00:02:55] Alejandro Vega says: I haven't been able to reach her phone either.
 
[00:04:21] Maitea Castrejon says: As I said. She was screaming left and right— begging for help. Calling me that her leg was all sorts of fucked up, how does that make sense? I knew because she /said it/.
 
[00:04:28] Maitea Castrejon says: I haven't seen her since that day and I mean that...
 
[00:05:12] Alejandro Vega says (to Maitea Castrejon) (phone): One moment.
 
[00:05:18] * Maitea Castrejon's showcasing the common traits of a liar. Her eyes dart around the room like a ricocheting bullet. She's unable to maintain eye contact.
 
[00:05:29] Alejandro Vega says [low] (phone): Eh?
 
[00:06:13] (( PM from (415) Kiante Walters: imma brb gimme a sec ))
 
[00:06:28] Alejandro Vega says (phone): Will do.
 
[00:07:38] Alejandro Vega says: Last time you were here, you said "they told you" she broke her leg and she's been staying inside. Who told you that?
 
[00:08:44] * Alejandro Vega remains calm and composed, keeping his posture straight but relaxed. He is deliberately still, signaling control over the situation while occasionally looking into Maitea's eyes hoping to gain eye contact.
 
[00:08:45] Maitea Castrejon says: Whose "they"? When— when did I say that? I don't even remember saying that.
 
[00:09:09] Alejandro Vega says: You said and I quote "I heard she broke her leg N she's been inside since then..." 
 
[00:09:13] Alejandro Vega says: Who did you hear that from?
 
[00:10:27] Maitea Castrejon says: I'm not sure that I said that, honestly. I don't even remember that— everyone's been talking about Melissa at school. They all miss her an so do I.
 
[00:10:36] * Maitea Castrejon says that with uncertainty.
 
[00:11:23] Alejandro Vega says: You mentioned Noah. He carried her down, right? Are you sure Noah told you everything? Or did he leave something out? 
 
[00:12:27] Maitea Castrejon says: I'm not sure what the fuck he's saying at this point. You heard him say he carried her down and that I peeled off in his car. He's a real— real piece of shit, huh?
 
[00:12:42] Alejandro Vega says: Why do you say that?
 
[00:13:08] Maitea Castrejon says: You said it yourself. He's dishonest. Goes both ways— me and yourself.
 
[00:13:40] * Alejandro Vega leans back slightly, relaxing in his chair, as if he’s just making an observation rather than interrogating Mai.
 
[00:14:16] * Alejandro Vega keeps his hands lightly folded showing that he’s in no rush. He gives Maitea some space to think.
 
[00:14:55] Maitea Castrejon says: I heard it all at this point. Anything he said I did? I'm not sayin nothing without a lawyer...
 
[00:15:15] Alejandro Vega says: So if Melissa never made it to a hospital… and she never made it home… and the last person with her was Noah...
 
[00:15:31] Alejandro Vega says: Then tell me, Mai—where do you really think Melissa is?
 
[00:15:59] * Maitea Castrejon  too throws her hands up into the air, shaking her head. I honestly don't know— that's a question for the man downstairs. I don't even know him anymore...
 
[00:16:16] Maitea Castrejon says: I can't fill in the blanks for anything I wasn't there for.
 
[00:16:43] Alejandro Vega says: Do you think Melissa killed those two in Jamestown? Did she mention anything?
 
[00:17:27] Maitea Castrejon says: As I said earlier. I was— I was called N texted. We went, Noah picked her up, and I fled. Swifty's words and mine.
 
[00:17:32] Maitea Castrejon says: Nothing about a murder was mentioned.
 
[00:18:00] Alejandro Vega says: Do you know if Melissa had any issues with other groups in the neighborhood?
 
[00:18:34] * Kiante Walters pulls his phone out of his pocket for a brief moment and types on it before tucking it back in.
 
[00:19:24] Maitea Castrejon says: Melissa? As far as I know? No, no... she was real sweet. That was my best friend— we grew up together. Anything hard in her life? I was there for it. I was surprised by the call she gave me and I did my do as a friend. Nothin more.
 
[00:20:12] Alejandro Vega says: Mai, you're hiding something from me. 
 
[00:20:37] Maitea Castrejon says: I know /nothing/...
 
[00:20:47] Alejandro Vega says: I am not here to pin murder charges on you. I am looking for Melissa. Had you volunteered this information earlier, things would be easier.
