"Did you see Dunne and Fanning's report to the file about their interview of you?" "I was not involved in the investigation of this case." "When you spoke to them, you minimized your involvement with Ms. Birchmore didn't you?" "Was that a question?" "Yes, you minimized your involvement with Ms. Birchmore didn't you?" "I don't believe so." "You said you only had sex with her 2-3 times?" "That is not correct." "In fact you had sex with Ms. Birchmore on April 18 of 2019, right?" "I don't have exact dates, Ma'am." "That was the IKEA parking lot right?" "I'd have to see the texts." "On August 12, 2019, you met her and a third person in a parking lot for the purpose of having sex, right?" "Objection, 412 your honor." "Overruled, you can answer." "Ma'am, without the texts, I don't have dates memorized." "On October 11, 2019, you met outside Ms. Birchmore's house to have sex in a car." "I don't recall." "On October 14, 2019, you met at the Marriot Hotel in Stoughton to have sex?" "yes." "On October 31st, 2019, you sent a picture of you and Ms. Birchmore engaged in a sex act to your brother?" "I don't recall that."

"You said Ms. Birchmore was the happiest she had ever been in Jan of 2021?" "Objection." "Sustained." "What made you believe that?" "Objection." "Overruled." "The tone in her voice when I would hear her on the phone. She was very excited. She told me the baby she was pregnant with was an angel sent from her mom who has passed." "Nothing."

"What does it say next?" "Two doors are labeled one on the garage level." "What do you say back?" "Maybe she what she drives...did you find it? Maybe we can Yuri." "Who is Yuri." "Yuri Bukhenik."

"How many years were you friends with the defendant?" "From the moment he joined the department until...." (trails off). "What, if anything, did you notice about changes in the defendant's demeanor in Jan of 2021?" "Objection." "Overruled." "He was agitated. Undergoing stress. Frequently going outside to take phone calls." "Was that different than his prior behavior?" "Yes." "How about his mood." "He was agitated, you could tell something was going on with him." "Did you attempt to address that with him?" "Yes, towards the end of January in 2021. I was at J and G Hillside Grill. It is a restaurant near a golf course. I asked the defendant if everything was okay, I told him he seemed agitated." "What did he say?" "He said a female in his life, other than his wife, was causing problems. He told me he was fine and the problem was going to take care of itself." "Did he give you the woman's name?" "No." "What was the female threatening to do?" "Tell his wife."
