Warren Commission (03 of 26): Hearings Vol. III (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mrs. PAINE. No; none I detected.
Mr. JENNER. Had you noticed any when you were in the police station?
Mrs. PAINE. Oh, no.
Mr. JENNER. On the previous day?
Mrs. PAINE. Oh, no.
Mr. JENNER. None at all. So that up to the moment of this telephone
conversation and after you finished you had no feeling there was any
estrangement, any coolness, any change in attitude on the part of
Marina toward you as a person?
Mrs. PAINE. No.
Mr. McCLOY. Have you felt any evidence of that since?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes; and that has several parts to it and I could easily go
into it now.
Mr. JENNER. I was going to ask her some general questions and Senator
Cooper asked me if I would permit her just to go through the day as she
has without, with a minimum of, interruptions so that you and he might,
and Representative Ford, might ask some general questions before you
left, so that is what I have done.
Mr. McCLOY. Have you completed your report?
Mrs. PAINE. That brings us to the 24th so that all else is really quite
post the assassination.
Mr. McCLOY. There is one thing I would like to ask before I go, if I
may, and that is your husband testified that several times he had moved
this blanket when it was in the garage. Can you fix the date when he
was in your house and working in the garage so that he was compelled to
move the blanket? When did he come to----
Mrs. PAINE. He normally came on Friday evening. He would sometimes come
on a Sunday afternoon, and either of those times could have been times
that he had worked in the garage.
Mr. McCLOY. That was all through September, October?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes; September, October; yes.
Mr. McCLOY. But when he had been working there he never mentioned to
you any--about the existence of this blanket, package which he had been
compelled to move?
Mrs. PAINE. No. That didn't come up until after the assassination.
Mr. McCLOY. It didn't come up until after the assassination.
Mr. JENNER. Excuse me, you are seeking to refresh your recollection
from what document, please?
Mrs. PAINE. I am looking at a calendar to see if there is anyway that I
can tell when Michael was in the house.
Mr. JENNER. That is Commission exhibit number what?
Mrs. PAINE. 401. But it has not helped me in refreshing my memory.
Mr. McCLOY. Did you have contacts with the FBI and if so what were they
before the assassination?
Mrs. PAINE. An FBI agent was out, I have learned since, on November 1.
I made no note of the day for myself. Sat down and talked in a relaxed
way and for sometime in my living room. He said that the FBI liked
to make it plain to people who have been in this country sometime,
immigrated from an iron curtain country if they were experiencing any
blackmail pressure from their home country, that they were welcome, and
invited to discuss it with the FBI if they so choose.
Mr. JENNER. Excuse me, Marina was present?
Mrs. PAINE. Marina was present.
Mr. JENNER. Did she overhear?
