Hi Jeff!
Kate & I enjoyed speaking with you yesterday, and appreciate your interest in Hannah’s case! Since I’m no longer in the area, I was wondering if we could get a transcript or something if you air our interview- I would also like to post it on our website & FB page, if you are okay with that.
Thanks again!
