““He also stated: ‘If I beat this in Court, do I get my stuff back, like my knife?’ “The first statement he made, ‘You may win this in Court, but I will win the appeal, because you have to bring all the witnesses back.’ Another statement he made was, ‘Don’t give me any lip or I won’t give you the samples. Because contempt of Court—when you are talking about 20 years of my life— isn’t that a big deal.’ “He also made the statement, ‘You don’t have your little tape recorder on. You try to use this in Court and I’ll deny I ever said it.’ ” Id. at 497 , 570 P.2d at 184 .”
