United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. JENNER. We are anxious to follow minute by minute, to the extent
possible, all the movements of which you had any knowledge of Lee
Oswald on this late afternoon and throughout the evening. Did Lee
Oswald remain in your presence right at this time when you entered the
house? If so, how long? You had this short conversation. Did he leave
your presence then and go to some other part of your home?
Mrs. PAINE. He might have gone to some other part of the home. He
didn't leave the house to my recollection.
Mr. JENNER. I didn't mean to imply that, only whether he remained in
the general area in which you were in your home?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall.
Mr. JENNER. Did he pass from your sight?
Mrs. PAINE. Probably.
Mr. JENNER. Before you guess about it, give us your best recollection.
Senator COOPER. Tell what you remember.
Mr. McCLOY. Yes; just in your own words tell us what your best
recollection of this afternoon was without second to second sequence.
Mrs. PAINE. Clearly just having come from the grocery store I put the
bags down in the kitchen and unpacked them, put them away, started
supper.
Mr. JENNER. Did you have any sense that Lee Oswald was in and about the
inside of the house while you were doing this?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Do you have a recollection that he did not go out into the
yard during this period?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall. If he did, it would have been the back. It
would have been unusual for him to go in the front yard.
Mr. JENNER. Now you were preparing your dinner in your kitchen, were
you not?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And does the entrance to your garage--is there an entrance
to your garage opening from your kitchen into the garage?
Mrs. PAINE. There is an entrance to the garage from the kitchen; yes.
Mr. JENNER. And one of the exhibits we qualified this morning is a
picture of that area of your home, is it not?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Your answer was yes?
Mrs. PAINE. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. At anytime while you were preparing dinner was Lee Oswald
in the garage?
Mrs. PAINE. No.
Mr. JENNER. And you were aware of that fact, were you?
Mrs. PAINE. That is my best recollection that he was not in the garage
while I was preparing dinner.
Mr. JENNER. Do you know where he was while you were preparing dinner?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall specifically.
Mr. JENNER. Did you have occasion to look into your garage area at
anytime during the period you were preparing dinner?
Mrs. PAINE. Not that I recall.
Mr. JENNER. Where was Marina during the period you were preparing
dinner?
Mrs. PAINE. I'd have to guess.
Senator COOPER. Just tell what you know.
Mr. JENNER. Tell what you know first.
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall specifically.
Mr. JENNER. Do you have a recollection with respect to whether she was
inside the house or outside the house?
Mrs. PAINE. I recall that she was inside the house.
Mr. JENNER. And where was the child June with respect to whether she
was inside or outside the house?
