I know most of you are likely familiar with this but it really gives years old context to the current revelations. (Mods? If this is redundant, delete, apologies)

There's no way anyone can listen to this and think anything other than:
Stapleton is doing a clean up/pressure job, and Andreu is covering up the hospital room conversation.

Go to the Secrets page for the recordings.

Never heard it before. Also didn't realize SU was up again.

Would be good to have a cleaner copy of that online and archived.
Anyone?

Yes. Please.

Andreu: "The hospital room happened, but I've never told anybody...
What does this **** accomplish? Nothing?"

I'm an audio engineer by profession.
I'll either, download these files, or, contact the admin's and see if they'd make it available.

Can't make it pristine but I can improve it quite a bit.

Assuming I can Download/get the file from admin, will take me a few days.
I'll shoot for end of the weekend.

Chilling stuff to be sure.

The site says those recordings relate to From Lance to Landis, but it sounds like it relates to LA Confidential, i.e., several years earlier.

Edit: wow, I just realized that wasn't a phone conversation. Andreu says towards the very end "Lance said you guys were gonna be coming by," then it sounds like Stapleton is walking away. Wow.

You could probably contact Decanio personally and he could send you the file if you can't pull it off the site.

How do you surmise Frankie tried to cover up the hospital incident? It was the secret so many knew. I don't think you used the correct wording here.

Although I couldn't understand everything on the recording, it seems like Stapleton was clearly trying to get everyone contacted by Walsh to make a public statement along the lines of "I never said that," in order to confront The Times and attack Walsh's credibility. Frankie was merely saying that he never told Walsh the hospital story.

Betsy, if you can comment, am I right about the timing, approx. 2005?

I got it off the site as crappy mp3's. Don't see a contact for the admin's.
If anyone has access let me know. Otherwise I'll work on the mp3's in the next few days.

Frankie was telling Bill that he wasn't the source for the hospital incident to the Troll; hence, that exchange.
You're a year off - it was 2004
