She said "L," "P," and "M,"

are the people who worked under Mitchell.
00:00:04.663 --> 00:00:07.414

Wait a minute, what's this here?
What are you writing about Sloan?
00:00:14.001 --> 00:00:16.087

00:00:28.353 --> 00:00:31.105

- How do we know that?
- Because she said it.
00:00:33.191 --> 00:00:35.647
Right here.
She said, "At the time of the break-in...
00:00:35.736 --> 00:00:37.444
"there was so much money
floating around...
00:00:37.529 --> 00:00:38.094

00:00:39.999 --> 00:00:41.007
