Et tu, Delmar? 'You never have to worry about me'

30

June

As he knowingly lured the father of his godson into a phone call recorded by prosecutors, Delmar Johnson had this reassurance for Jim Greer: "You never have to worry about me."

It's just one of scores of scintillating details in the 56 minute call between the two (Times/Herald story here). Greer sounds panicked, trying to determine who is a friend and who is an enemy. He even confronts Johnson with rumors that Johnson has turned on him.

But a stammering Johnson keeps the conversation going, finally ending it with a promise to visit Greer in Central Florida.

"Kiss my godson for me," Johnson says.
