“We emailed his lawyer a lot because we really wanted to do an interview. He said no, of course, and that’s something I really regret because I would have loved to sit in front of him and ask him. He’s asking questions… but obviously not He was going to do something like that, maybe if he didn’t go to jail one day (…)… I think he was too busy preparing for the trial, and then what could he do?”
