For a second I thought I was dead, but when I heard all the noise I knew they were cops. Only cops talked that way. If they had been wise guys, I wouldn’t have heard a thing, I would have been dead.

Goodfellas (1990) dir. Martin Scorsese

“One night after dark, I went to his cell, and I said, “Mr. Bundy, we’re going out.” I know he was scared because he’d never been taken out at night like that. When we entered the dental office, all of a sudden, he knew what we were gonna do, and Ted Bundy started screaming, “Where’s my attorney? I want my attorney”. I said, “Ted Bundy, sit in that chair, we have a warrant to read to you.” Doctor Souviron brought with him some mouth retractor that are used to keep the mouth open, and I said, “Show him what we’re gonna use if we have to.” Ted Bundy looked at me, he sat down in the dental chair, he laid back, opened his mouth, and he said, “Ken. You know I’m not a violent person.” - Ken Katsaris on Snapped.
