We
closed
the
courthouse
down
that
eliminated.
You
know
the
need
for
my
staff,
all
of
them
to
be
in
the
courthouse
and
allow
them
the
opportunity
to
go
out
and
assist
the
police
department
with
traffic
control
and
whatever
else
they
might
need
assistance
with.
As
you
know,
the
events
of
the
day
unfolded.

Struck
the
building
at
9
37
and
my
official
arrival
time
was
9
48..
I
am
joined
very
quickly
by
special
agent
chris
combs
from
the
washington
field
office
of
the
fbi
on
september,
8th
three
days
before
september
11th

I
were
involved
in
a
full-scale
exercise
in
fairfax
county
that
employed
all
of
the
regional
northern

Good
afternoon,
first
off,
I'd
like
to
echo
general
jackson's
comments
about
the
level
of
cooperation
among
all
the
agencies,
all
the
levels
of
government
represented
here
in
in
the
effort
here
over
the
last
couple
of
days.

I
grew
up
in
new
york
in
long
island
and
my
friend,
terence,
was
a
commodities
broker
at
one
point,
and
I
figured
that
he
would
have
known
a
bunch
of
people
that
would
have
been
you
know,
potentially
in
new
york
city
at
the
time.
E
I
learned
that
terence
had
been
in
the
world
trade
center
for
a
breakfast
meeting
at
windows
on
the
world,
which
was
on
107th
floor
and
he
called
his
wife
three
times
after
the
plane
hit
the
building,
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
get
out.
But
nobody
above
that
made
it
out.
C
E
The
loss
of
my
best
friend
just
suddenly
hit
me
like
a
ton
of
bricks,
and
it
was
weeks
after
because
I
didn't
have
time
to
grieve
when
we
were
still.
You
know
neck
deep
and
dealing
with
the
situation.
So
you
know
I
still
see
his
his
wife
and
kids
and
you
know
never
forget.
