S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
You know, I mean, you haven't met me personally, but my God, you know, this is a tragedy that can't be put into words. And no matter what I say to the parents or anybody else, it's not going to bring those children back. I have what's called inner peace in the sense that it still bothers me today. Certainly, I wouldn't be human if it didn't, and it will bother me till the day of my death.

But you've got to put things in the past, and you've got to look to the future along the linesome.

I just ramble on here, you know, and she just listens and, you know, she hums, yes, yes, yes. I never give her a chance to get anything in sideways.

Right, I've got them. I know why. I answered that myself in my own thing, but I've got to have somebody to write. I'm not after no one.

S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Okay, and it was good talking to you, Peter.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Hi, how are you? I'm fine, how are you? About ten minutes late. I called the bottom number.

Got a movie on, it's a comedy movie on baseball.

Coming live all the way from the Kingston Penitentiary, your local DJ, Clifford Robert Olsen, in stereo. These records and these tapes are all dedicated to Arlene.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Well, where's Arlene today? She's not at work yet. Oh, well, let's see what time it is. Oh, no, no, she won't be at work. She won't be at work for an hour. Well, she's not at home. Well, she's probably on the way then. Well, I called her just ten minutes ago and she wasn't in the car phone. Oh, well, God knows. Okay, listen, can you get a little message here?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
I question a lot of that, too. I think a lot of that is bullshit, Arlene. I think a lot of those people are not sexually abused. They're used as an escape code to get out for what they're doing. You know, a lot of people just lie. You know, I mean, they've got to cover themselves. They're saving face. They've got to save a little pride, you know?

S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
I called last night there, and I can appreciate not calling you at home, but I thought sometimes for an emergency or anything, that comes up, Peter, you know?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
See, we closed the deal. Here, we closed the deal, I think it was the 25th. About, oh, 12 o'clock.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
And then the next day we left at 9 o'clock when the money was delivered. Then we went directly from there out looking for bodies. You get what I'm getting at?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
I'm going to spend the rest of my life in jail, and I'm not prepared to do that. And one of these days, Arlene, I'm going to make a move and it's going to be a bloodbath.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Yeah, I know, definitely. I mean, that comes first, you know, but I thought, like, if anything of an emergency ever come up, and one would have to give... The only emergency that would come up would be you going over the wall. Well, or did I kill somebody?

S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
There was an unsettling amount of polite small talk. I could hear my grandfather patiently humoring Olson. Who's Christian? Chrétien. Oh, Chrétien, yeah.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
He didn't answer or reply to the letter that I sent him, blah, blah, blah, blah. Oh, yeah. You know?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
I was drinking, but yet I knew what I was doing at all times. Yet I didn't give a fuck. I knew deliberately that I was going to go out day after day, year after year, pick these persons up, have sex with them,

He must be going for a coffee.

No, no, I just got back. Okay. We're all playing music. What I said about the Freedom of Information Act?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Well, no, I just run it short. I accessed my stuff from the U.S. Department of Justice.

Thank you, operator. That should have been Senator Clifford Olsen.

How are you? Where did you have to go?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Oh, okay. Hey, I hope we don't play this on, you know, during your interviews. No, I will edit that part out.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
And then on the other hand... Tell me one nasty thing I said about your back.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Yes, I have. And I think I called you that on the phone, too.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
You have not come in to interview me. I don't think that is a proper perspective for a reporter. Now, you might have reasons for that. You might be scared of a serial killer. What am I going to do, hold you up against the wall with a pencil? I'm asking you, why haven't you come in with Peter to visit?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
I'm telling you, Arlene, yes, I do. Are you?
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Okay, listen, just don't let anything out that I'm calling you or we'll cut right off.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
No, but I'm saying that way we're okay.

Yeah, this is a conference call going through to my lawyer, which you're at his office, Arlene. You're the first interview I ever gave in the media. Very first.
Sea of Lies from Uncover
S33 E1: The Olson Tapes | Calls From a Killer
Well, really, see, being a Christian, I'm forgiven in the sense that it's over and done with, and I'm not to whine and cry what happened. But still, being human, I have those inner thoughts and feelings that, Jesus, how could me, of anybody in North America, commit such things?

He said that I'm normal. That's it?

I knew I was killing the children, but I couldn't stop myself. I wasn't insane. I knew what I was doing at the time.

You say you have nothing to lose, so are you going to kill again? One of these days, Arlene, I'm going to make a move, and it's going to be a bloodbath.

Ten seconds after I entered the Corey building and walked into that big room, there were beautiful photographs of Diane. Picture, picture, picture, picture, picture, picture. None of the pictures. I text him.
