What trial testimony has revealed. Unlike Jay Lee, Tim Harrington was hiding his sexuality. He was not out. His parents didn't know anything about it. His best friends didn't know anything about that. The grandfather was a bishop at the church that he founded for 42 years. And so his relationship with Jay Lee was fairly secretive.

Well, what's the name of your friend? I says, Tim Harrington. Five minutes after he picks him up, he gets stopped by police for speeding.
