United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. SPECTER. And then I asked you were there any other findings
other than those we have already talked about, which would make you
think that the shots came from the knoll, based on your own personal
observations, recollections or impressions.
Mrs. HILL. Nothing that comes to mind.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, is there anything else about that television
interview which you consider important?
Mrs. HILL. Except for the fact it left me very doubtful and confused.
Mr. SPECTER. Because they gave you a lot of hypothetical situations,
and you didn't know which was which, if you listened to them?
Mrs. HILL. That's right--they had some very strange ideas which I have
heard here and there voiced by other people.
Mr. SPECTER. What were they doing basically, asking you to comment on
those various theories?
Mrs. HILL. I asked why were they coming out here, why would they come
to my home, why was that important, and they said, "Something big is
going to break in a little while and we want to put it on first. We
want to be ready for it."
Mr. SPECTER. Did they ever put that television interview on?
Mrs. HILL. I have never seen any, but then, I never saw myself on TV
either.
Mr. SPECTER. Is there anything else about that television interview
which you now consider important?
Mrs. HILL. Well, I know that it has bothered me ever since it happened,
and particularly since I have been questioned these other times.
Mr. SPECTER. By the FBI last week?
Mrs. HILL. Yes; and without things of comments, and speculation that
I have heard, and remarks that I've gone back over, of happenings
that have happened to me that day and as to the way it happened, and
frankly, I would either like to say it again or something----
Mr. SPECTER. Like to say what again?
Mrs. HILL. I would like to see this telecast or hear that questioning
again because there's something about it that keeps in the back of my
mind----
Mr. SPECTER. But you can't put your finger on what it is?
Mrs. HILL. No.
Mr. SPECTER. But you are annoyed or bothered or perplexed with it or
confused by that?
Mrs. HILL. Yes; I have been.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, have you told me everything that you have to say
about that television interview?
Mrs. HILL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, moving on to the question about Mark Lane, what did
you tell him other than that which you have told me here today?
Mrs. HILL. He asked me where we were taken and I told him in the
pressroom, that we didn't know it was the pressroom at the time, and
that we didn't know we couldn't leave and because they kept standing
across the door, and the first time we really--we were getting tired of
it, I mean, we had been down there quite a while and we were getting
tired of it and we wanted to leave and this is what I told him, and
so some man came in and offered Mary a sum, I think--say--$10,000 or
something like this for this picture.
