4 PR: Okay.
5 DC: And uh, it's usually I remember their, their kids before I remember them.
6 PR: Uh-hum (affirmative).
7 DC: But yeah (affirmative), she's a very much a regular client that comes in a lot. So I
8 knew her by name. I asked about her daughter. She told me that uh, the
9 daughter was with the nanny. She was on her way to pick up friends from the
10 airport. That they were coming in from Puerto Rico on a trip she was supposed
11 to have gone on. And she was driving one of the friend's cars.
12 PR: Okay. So on that Tuesday ....
13 DC: Yeah (affirmative).
14 PR: You had a conversation about her driving a friend's car?

3 PR: And she said she was going to pick her friend up?
4 DC: She was picking a couple of friends up from the airport that were coming in from
5 Puerto Rico.
6 PR: Coming in from Puerto Rico. And that she was supposed to be on that trip?
7 DC: She was supposed to have been on that trip, 'but she was saving money to move
8 out of her mother's house into her own place and that's why she couldn't go.
9 PR: She was planning to go with the friends she was going to pick up? People out of
10 that trip?
11 DC: Yeah (affirmative). She was originally supposed to go on the trip with them is
12 what.. ..
13 PR: Okay.
14 DC: ... the way she made it.
15 PR: Uhm ...
16 DC: You know the reason the car came up is because she said she didn't have
17 enough room in her car to carry all their luggage so she had to go borrow the
18 friend's, pick up the friend's car to pick them up. Just very, very nonchalant,
19 carefree. You know, like I said I talked to her about her daughter for a good few
20 minutes.
21 PR: So she had the car because she couldn't use hers?
22 DC: That was her story. She couldn't fit all the luggage of everybody into her car.

25


10
Colamarino, Danny/Case #O8-069208/GG



1 DC: Yeah (affirmative). Because I asked Jonathan, "Have you ever met the guy? Is
2 there any way we can get a hold of him?" And Jonathan's like, "No. Well she
3 never brought the guy around." You know but then when, you know we, we were
4 playing detective last night and uh ...
5 PR; Oh, yeah (affirmative).
6 DC: ...It was like, at that point as much as lying as she's doing, who did uh, who's to
7 know if any of it's true.
8 PR: Okay.
9 DC: You know, because they, they, she had made mention of uh, the girl Amy. And
10 Jon ... we looked it up on the My Space and Jonathan says the girl's been to his
11 house for a party but he doesn't know the girl.
12 PR: Okay. She's been hanging out with Amy?
13 DC: No, no, the ...
14 PR: No?
15 DC: ... it was mentioned that about. ..
16 PR: Amy?
17 DC: A fraudulent check she was writing.
18 PR: Oh, okay.
19 DC: And it was some girl, Amy.
20 PR: Alright. Does she have a My Space page?
21 DC: Yeah (affirmative).
22 PR: Uh, Casey?
23 DC: Yeah (affirmative). But it's all changed over to my kid is missing, which.
24 PR: Oh, okay.
25 DC: You know it's her page and her brother's got one that has all the information.


11
Colamarino, Danny/Case #O8-069208/GG



1 PR: Who's putting that information on?
2 DC: Who's putting it on hers? I have no idea. I would imagine the brother is putting it
3 on his own and ....
4 PR: Uh-hum (affirmative). Uhm, you know uh, the baby's father?
5 DC: No. There's ....
6 PR: You never heard of ....
7 DC: ... rumors of that being a one night stand. It was a guy in the military. You know,
8 again, stuff like that you're probably better off getting it from Jonathan. The
9 PR: .... Okay.
10 DC: ... hearsay stories to it, it was just stuff we were talking about last night.
11 PR: We're getting the uh, waiver? Well it should have some signature and all that?
12 DC: Yeah (affirmative).
13 PR: She consents to.
14 DC: Well we'll have her i.d. (identification) on the back. We take it step further than
15 the Health Board needs us to.
16 PR: Okay.
17 DC: But to cover our own butts we copy everybody's driver license and ....
18 PR: Anything else? Anything you would like to add or I missed you think would be
19 important for us?
20 DC: Well, like I said, the only thing that I thought was so important was the, the
21 constant mention of Puerto Rico and the new boyfriend and ....
22 PR: She was constantly mentioning Puerto Rico? How long when those Puerto Rico
23 conversations started?
24 DC: Just Tuesday, you know, about her going to pick up the people at the airport.
25 Like I said, I wasn't here two weeks ago when she got tattooed last. So I didn't


12
Colamarino, Danny/Case #O8-069208/GG



1 have a general conversation with her at that point. You know, just, and I can't
2 get over the fact of how nonchalant she was and openly talked about the kid and
3 you know how she was going to bring the kid in next Saturday when she got
4 tattooed. And just no emotion at all finding out now what I know.
5 PR: Uh-hum (affirmative). Right.
6 DC: But I didn't know if like ....
7 PR: What she, what was she talking about Puerto Rico,? She wanted to go or?
8 DC: She had wanted to go. It was a trip that all her, I guess her new friends were
9 taking that she was going to pick up at the airport at the moment. She seemed
10 like, oh, well, but like a slightly bitter like she wanted to go on vacation, which you
11 know, when you're talking'at that point it makes sense. You know, sure I'd like to
12 go to Puerto Rico too. If all my friends went I'd be a little bummed.
13 PR: Hmm, yeah (affirmative).
14 DC: But you know, just all very nonchalant.
15 PR: Her friends of her new crowd?
16 DC: She never said. You know ....
17 PR: Not been said?
18 DC: ... and I guess she knows I know like Jonathan and that whole crowd. She
19 didn't...
20 PR: But it wasn't Jonathan's crowd?
21 DC: No, not at all.
22 PR: It was probably her boyfriend Ricardo's crowd?
23 DC: Possibly. Yeah (affirmative), just said ....
24 PR: Possibly (inaudible).
25


13
Colamarino, Danny/Case #O8-069208/GG



1 DC: ... you know, "I'm picking up friends." She had to pick up one of the friend's cars
2 because her car couldn't handle all the luggage. So I assumed it was more than
3 one.
4 PR: Okay. Alright.
5 DC: Uhm, yeah (affirmative), just uh, it just blows me away how calm of a demeanor
6 she had and openly talked about her kid. And you know knowing what I know
7 now there was no emotion that ....
8 PR: Yeah (affirmative). Okay. Well if you have any do you have any, anything. else,
9 any (unintelligible) for more information give us a call. You got. our number,
10 right?
11 DC: Yeah (affirmative).
