Interview of Richard Lawson Basement Wayne County Jail
Matt is this the Interview you wanted to read?~{Interview of Richard Lawson by Scott Lewis, Fox 2 Detroit reporter, in basement of Wayne County Jail, just after Lawson's sentencing for murder:
Lewis said Lawson "weaved a tale" that at times chilled him and at other times seemed "far-fetched". Lawson claims he is NOT the OCCK himself, nor had any involvement, but he claims he knows who is. He said Bobby Moore was a pedophile who ran a business that catered to kids in the Cass Corridor in the 70's. He ran a bike shop and was involved with pornography. Lewis told Lawson that Moore is dead and he was surprised and said he wasn't aware of that. Moore died 15 years ago of natural causes. Lawson said he also knows of a second person involved. He would not give a last name but he said a man named Ted was a friend of Bobby's. He now lives in Ohio. Lawson said if what Ted said is true, than he's an accomplice. Lawson said he worked undercover as a paid informant for police, including the OCCK Task Force. The police told him who they wanted him to contact, and form a relationship with. Lewis asked him if he ever molested a child as part of operation. Lawson said he was told that if he had to, to get into the inner ring, they would look the other way. Lawson said he did molest to get into the organization. He said the authorities knew exactly what was going on. Through the pedophile ring, Lawson said he met Bobby Moore and his friend Ted. At some point, Ted held up a Polaroid and said "Does this NOT look like the King child?" Lawson said he was making a statement, rather than a question. Ted showed a second picture of the same boy that he said looked like King, with a man. It was a pornographic picture. Lawson said it looked like the King boy, but he wasn't positive on the ID. Ted from Ohio is positive on the ID of the picture and has told police he's absolutely, positively sure that's King. Bobby was not happy that Ted let something slip, and it basically busted up their friendship. Lawson said he knows who the man is in the pornographic picture with King, but he will not yet reveal the name. He says he expects to get something for his 20 years of work for the government. Lawson also said Moore stashed a car similar to a Gremlin, inside a big panel truck, kept outside of his apt. He took the car apart in pieces and disposed of it in the trash at Cass Tech. Lewis reported that the police have never found the picture. Lewis said he thought Lawson "stretched his credibility a bit" when he said the government knew of the porn ring and let it operate. Lawson said the people who bought pornography from the ring were blackmailed by investigators. Lewis said Ted took a polygraph on this case and failed it.}
