I took 274 00:14:49.320 --> 00:14:52.919 it very badly. I was awful about it. I cried 275 00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:55.759 at the beast provocation I imagined it, but with all 276 00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:59.039 thoughts of French women. Now, Oh, I know I'm neurotic. 277 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.519 I just can't help me that way. Jealous, I've always 278 00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:06.399 been jealous. I fight it. I swear I'll never again 279 00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:09.840 be suspicious or horrible, but I am.

He began to see something of another woman, 288 00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:33.960 Sharon Elders. I thought I'd go crazy. I used to 289 00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.720 plan how I could kill it, then kill him. Oh, 290 00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:38.840 don't look so stricken. I never got to the point 291 00:15:38.840 --> 00:15:43.919 that I attempted murder, but I go on, I reached 292 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:45.279 that point today. 293 00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.120 What do you mean there is murder in that letter? 294 00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:49.679 I don't understand. 295 00:15:49.759 --> 00:15:53.279 Do I have to tell you everything?

Every last 316 00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:55.679 detail was planned. The police would be food, everybody would 317 00:16:55.679 --> 00:16:58.240 be fooled. It was perfect.
