Chris on Facebook: "As someone who believed they knew Ross Harris." This is from our Facebook, somebody who knows this defendant, writing in.
Chris: "As someone who believed they knew Ross Harris, I just want to throw up my apologies for ever defending him. I knew a ghost, or someone who never existed."
VELEZ-MITCHELL: But I want to go to right now a very special exclusive guest. We`re talking to Chris, Chris had called us -- contacted us on Facebook saying that you believe you knew Ross Harris. What was your reaction as somebody who knows this man -- this defendant? When you found out that while his child was roasting to death in a hot car he was -- according to cops sexting six different women and sending photos of his erect member, and I`m sorry to be so (inaudible) but that`s what it was to these -- some of these women.
CHRIS WILKERSON, KNOWS JUSTIN ROSS HARRIS: That`s an understatement.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: You said you were stunned?
WILKERSON: Stunned. I mean this just totally. The whole story is just totally not what we knew of Ross Harris. (Inaudible) of us who knew him, (inaudible) were angry with people that commented because I was like you don`t know this guy. And I know this is horrible and I can`t explain how it happened. Don`t have any explanation for how it happened. But I can tell you if it happened to this guy it could happen to anybody. And now, I just don`t even know what to say. I mean.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Did you know they had an unhappy marriage and that they were having intimacy problems? And that is according to the wife they were having intimacy problems.
WILKERSON: Well, you know, I never met her to be fair. So, I won`t comment on she said or hasn`t said, but I knew Ross. I met Cooper one time.
He brought him back to visit (inaudible). You know, I`d still be shocked to hear that because by all indications everything -- I mean this is a good couple.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Yeah, well nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors. And I`ll tell you from my own personal experience, Chris, sometimes when people act perfect that is when the most toxic secrets are hidden behind that perfect exterior. What do you make of his.
WILKERSON: They weren`t like that. They, you know, like every other couple I`m sure they had their issues. But, you know, you thought that they were loving parents. Cooper was the light of their eye. They fought to have him. And for this to happen, it was just so unfathomable, and then to hear all this on top of it.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Would you say that his friends who gave him a standing ovation at his funeral feel betrayed at the son`s funeral when he called in from jail and he got a standing ovation now that all this has come out about is sexting allegedly and all sorts of other stuff? Do you think they feel betrayed for standing up for this guy?
WILKERSON: Again, I wouldn`t presume to speak for anybody else. I don`t know. I wasn`t there.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Do you feel betrayed?
WILKERSON: Yes. But, you know, save your out rage for the betrayal for that little boy who was betrayed by people who should have protected him.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: Chris, well, I want to thank you for taking the time to call us. And I know it`s emotional and difficult. You know, sometimes we wonder, do we know anyone? Do we ever really know anyone? You think you have a friend, you know him and then they do something that you can`t comprehend.
