United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. DHORITY. I believe that she said that she found it in her front
yard, as well as I remember.
Mr. BALL. What did you do after that?
Mr. DHORITY. We carried them down to the police department and took
affidavits off of them and they went to the lineup.
Mr. DHORITY. They identified Oswald as the No. 2 man in the lineup.
Mr. DHORITY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. With them?
Mr. DHORITY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. That was about what time of the night?
Mr. DHORITY. The lineup--I imagine was about 7:30.
Mr. BALL. 7:30 at night. And who was in the lineup?
Mr. DHORITY. They identified Oswald as the No. 2 man in the lineup.
Mr. BALL. Who else was in the lineup?
Mr. DHORITY. I don't know.
Mr. BALL. You didn't have that?
Mr. DHORITY. No; I didn't hold the lineup.
Mr. BALL. What do you call that lineup, is that the number showup in
your report?
Mr. DHORITY. I don't have a report showing any numbers.
Mr. BALL. Were you with Virginia and Jeanette Davis, standing with them?
Mr. DHORITY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. And that was about what time of night, you said, 7:30?
Mr. DHORITY. Yes.
Mr. BALL. Your records show that on November 22, 1963, there was a
showup at 7:55 p.m.
Mr. DHORITY. Well, I don't recall exactly what time it was.
Mr. BALL. Anyway, tell me how that showup was conducted, what did you
say to these people?
Mr. DHORITY. Well, I was there with them and there at the time of the
showup, and they both were----
Mr. BALL. I know--but how was it conducted--did somebody ask questions?
Mr. DHORITY. Well, as I recall, somebody was holding the showup and
there was other people there at the same time looking at them.
Mr. BALL. Did somebody ask questions of the men in the showup?
Mr. DHORITY. I think they did.
Mr. BALL. Did you?
Mr. DHORITY. No, sir.
Mr. BALL. Did you show these two Davis girls a picture of anybody
before they went in there, did you ever show them Oswald's picture?
Mr. DHORITY. No; I didn't; no, sir.
Mr. BALL. What did you tell them at the house, what did you tell them
before you brought them down?
Mr. DHORITY. I just told them I wanted to take an affidavit off of them
and to take them down to a showup.
Mr. BALL. Down to a showup?
Mr. DHORITY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. When you were in the showup, did you say anything to them?
Mr. DHORITY. Did I say anything to them?
Mr. BALL. During the showup, did you say anything to the two girls?
Mr. DHORITY. I don't recall saying anything to them at all.
Mr. BALL. What did they tell you?
Mr. DHORITY. They said that the No. 2 man looked like the man, as well
as I remember.
Mr. BALL. "Looked like the man"--looked like the man what?
Mr. DHORITY. I believe she said that run across her yard, as well as I
remember. It's in the affidavit.
Mr. BALL. Who took the affidavit?
Mr. DHORITY. I took the one from Virginia, I believe.
Mr. BALL. And who took the one from Jeanette?
Mr. DHORITY. I believe Brown took that one.
