This is continuing with Ferrer's first interview with law enforcement. As they confront him with statements by his own grandmother and then statements from his girlfriend and friend who were with him that night, Ferrer throws his own loved ones under the bus.
The defense has accused the victim of hurling insults but so far, it is the defendant calling Sgt. Sligh "a flat top" and demeaning his own grandmother and girlfrined that has been offensive. Ferrer's girlfriend's autism was brought up by defense attorney Marek Reavis in opening.
The sergeants tell him that his grandmother told them that Ferrer told her that he got into "a fight with a skinhead."
"It doesn't matter dude, I'm going down, I didn't do shit man," says Ferrer. "My grandma is fucking crazy. She has dementia."
The sergeants ask him, "Are Sophie and Nick liars?" "Ferrer turns to Sgt. Sligh,"I'm not even talking to you flat top."
"My girlfriend is autistic, she has Asperger's," says Ferrer.
"Nick and Sophie care about you? Do you care about them?" they ask Ferrer. Acting Sgt. Ortega says, "Nick said maybe he called you and Nick fags and you got into it."
Ferrer: "Are you saying because someone called my girlfriend a fat bitch, he deserves to die? Stabiing someone, no we were just walking by, that's all I did."
Ferrer denies what Nicholas Stoiber said about Ferrer having a drink with him before he went home. Says he went home and parted ways with Nick and Sophie.
Sergeants ask what should happen to the person that stabbed Douglas Anderson. "Nobody should die for hurling an insult, maybe bitch slapped or something."
Acting Sgt. Ortega: "Give me a reason why Sophie and Nick would say you stabbed him?
"I don't know," responds Ferrer.
Acting Sgt. Ortega asks Ferrer why Sophie and Nick would implicate themselves in an incident.
Ferrer: "Maybe they did it?"
Acting Sgt. Ortega,"You are insulting the intelligence of people who will make a decision in this case with overwhelming evidence against you and your only defense is, "I didn't do it'."
Acting Sgt. Ortega tells Ferrer, "How can I appeal to you to tell the truth?"
Ferrer says he loves Sophie and Acting Sgt. Ortega responds with, "7 years you were with this woman and you are going to make her take the ride for something you did?"
Sgt. Sligh says,"You say you love this woman, all I hear you say is that you care about yourself."
The sergeants tell Ferrer that today is the day of Douglas Anderson's memorial service. Acting Sgt. Ortega repeats what he said several times in the interview. "You are a good person. You didn't intend to kill hi. Sophie, Nick, your grandma, Sophie's parents are suffering because of a stupid decision you made. Makes me feel bad for Sophie and Nick. I thought you would come in and do the right thing."
Ferrer just continues his denials. The seargeants leave and he sits alone, sipping water from a bottel. They came in a few minutes later and tell him he is under arrest for murder and conspiracy.
