RAMIREZ. VICTOR. LIEUTENANT I. SERIAL NO. 16962. NEWTON DIVISION.
485-5274
Lieutenant Ramirez was interviewed on June 27, 1989, 1050 hours,
at Newton Division by Lieutenant S. Coker, Serial No. 20195, and
Sergeant M. Cotwright, Serial No. 20132.
Lieutenant Ramirez stated that sometime in early May, 1989,
Detective Timothy Diethrich, who worked for Ramirez, approached
him and asked to speak with him. Diethrich said that Lieutenant
Bill Hall had came to Newton Station to talk to him (Diethrich)
that day. Diethrich said that he felt Hall had attempted to
influence him to get his wife, Hearing Reporter Laura Diethrich,
to say she did not know or see anything regarding the personnel
investigation being conducted of the O.I.S. Section. Ramirez
stated that he asked Diethrich if Hall had asked him to have his
(Diethrich's) wife lie regarding the investigation. Diethrich
told him that Hall had not came out and asked him to have his
wife lie but Hall had said that maybe Diethrich's wife did not
know what the truth was. Diethrich also said that Hall told him
that his wife could say she did not see or know anything and that
would for all intents and purposes end her involvement as a
witness.
Ramirez stated that he could not recall whether or not Diethrich
said if Hall came to Newton to expressly see him or not or if he
(Diethrich) had advance notice that Hall was going to meet with
him.
Ramirez stated he was not told by Diethrich whether or not Hall
had discussed any details of the investigation as to the possible
allegations or what his (Diethrich's) wife should say if asked
about any particular allegation(s). Timothy Diethrich told him
that his wife, Laura, had expressed concern regarding where her
loyalties lay and was not sure what she should tell the personnel
investigators but Diethrich told her to just tell the truth.
Diethrich told him that a detective from the O.I.S. Section had
taken his (Diethrich's) wife for a car ride and during the ride
told his wife that he had been told by Lieutenant Hall to try and
get his wife's, "mind straight." Diethrich did not relate any
further details as to what the O.I.S. detective may have told his
wife or what his wife's response was to the detective's comment.
Ramirez stated that Detective Diethrich told him that one day
when his wife came into work her desk was messed" up and items
were strewn on top of it. Diethrich said his wife felt that
action might have been somehow connected to her being interviewed
regarding the O.I.S. personnel investigation. However, Detective
Diethrich made no mention of his wife receiving any direct
threats by anyone at the O.I.S. Section.
