2 Q. Professor Karl, I'm sorry to interrupt you. Those appear
3 in your CV, and I do intend to ask you about those.
4 I would like to focus upon the kinds of research you
5 do, just the academic research that you do for the moment.
6 A. Sure, sure.
7 Q. So you read archives of periodicals in El Salvador. Do
8 you interview people?
9 A. Most of my work in El Salvador is constant interviewing,
10 because almost everything else I can photocopy and take with
11 me.
12 So the time I spend in El Salvador is talking to
13 people, and it's the most important work. It's actually the
14 work I value the most of the work I have done the most. I
15 interview everybody in El Salvador that will talk to me and I
16 follow around people who won't talk to me until they agree to.
17 I have interviewed extensively all political parties.
18 I have interviewed extensively within the military and the
19 police. I have interviewed extensively inside the governing
20 party now, the ARENA Party.
21 I have traveled with various presidential candidates
22 on their presidential campaigns. That includes former
23 President Duarte and it includes Roberto D'Aubuisson, who
24 figures prominently in this case.
25 Q. You have interviewed Roberto D'Aubuisson?
