From the Sun article:

At about 10:30pm, the pair arrived at the Jackson County Sheriff's Department, Mississippi, where they gave a report of what happened and were questioned by officers.
After around 30 minutes of questioning, Sheriff Fred Diamond decided to leave the men alone in a room that was rigged with a hidden microphone - to try and find out if they were lying or not.
He assumed that if they were lying it would become immediately apparent when the two spoke privately but instead, they continued to act incredibly distressed - and never straying from their fantastic tale.
This so-called "secret tape" had been held on file at the Jackson County Sheriff's department since 1973. Partial transcript of conversation between Calvin and Charlie recorded by Jackson County Sheriff's Department:
CALVIN: " I got to get home and get to bed or get some nerve pills or see the doctor or something. I can't stand it. I'm about to go half crazy."
CHARLES: " I tell you, when we're through, I'll get you something to settle you down so you can get some damn sleep."
CALVIN: " I can't sleep yet like it is. I'm just damn near crazy."
CHARLES: " Well, Calvin, when they brought you out-when they brought me out of that thing, goddamn it I like to never in hell got you straightened out.
"My damn arms, my arms, I remember they just froze up and I couldn't move. Just like I stepped on a damn rattlesnake. "They didn't do me that way."
CALVIN: " I passed out. I expect I never passed out in my whole life."
CHARLES: " I've never seen nothing like that before in my life. You can't make people believe."
CALVIN: " I don't want to keep sitting here. I want to see a doctor."
CHARLES: " They better wake up and start believing ... they better start believing."
CALVIN:  "You see how that damn door come right up?"
CHARLES: " I don't know how it opened, son. I don't know."
CALVIN: " It just laid up and just like that those sons of b*tches -just like that they come out."
CHARLES: " I know. You can't believe it. You can't make people believe it."
CALVIN: " I paralysed right then. I couldn't move."
CHARLES: " They won't believe it. They gonna believe it one of these days. Might be too late. I knew all along they was people from other worlds up there. I knew all along. I never thought it would happen to me."
CALVIN: " You know yourself I don't drink.
CHARLES: " I know that, son. When I get to the house I'm gonna get me another drink, make me sleep. Look, what we sitting around for. I gotta go tell Blanche... what we waiting for?"
CALVIN (panicky): " I gotta go to the house. I'm getting sick. I gotta get out of here."
[Charlie leaves the room]
CALVIN: " It's hard to believe . . . Oh God, it's awful... I know there's a God up there..."
