United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. ADAMCIK. No; I never did lift the blanket up.
Mr. BELIN. What happened after it was brought inside?
Mr. ADAMCIK. I don't recall then at all. I left the house after awhile
and went with, I believe it was, Mrs. Paine. I went with her to one of
the neighbor houses to see about the children, leaving the children
there. I left and went with her.
Mr. BELIN. Then what did you do?
Mr. ADAMCIK. Coming back, Mrs. Frazier, I believe it was, drove up to
the house as I was coming back with--no, it was Mrs. Bill Randle. She
(Mrs. Randle) was a neighbor there and she was driving up to the house,
so I asked her whether she knew anything about what had happened, and
whether she had seen Lee Oswald, and she did tell me that Lee Oswald
rode to work with her brother, which is Wesley Frazier, who was staying
with her, and he rode to work with him that morning.
She told me that she saw--she was up early in the morning and was
drinking coffee, and saw Lee Harvey Oswald go across the front yard,
across the yard carrying like a long package wrapped in something,
carrying it from the Paine house to Wesley's car.
Mr. BELIN. Did she say how he was carrying the package?
Mr. ADAMCIK. No; she didn't. I think we got an affidavit. In fact, I
know we did, but I didn't take it.
Mr. BELIN. Did she say about how long the package was?
Mr. ADAMCIK. No; she said it was long and wrapped in a paper or a box.
That is all I remember her saying.
Mr. BELIN. Anything else on there? Did she say anything that it was
unusual for Oswald to be home at all during the week?
Mr. ADAMCIK. Yes; she did say that. That Oswald usually spent the
weekends over there, and it was unusual for him to be there on a
Thursday night and go to work with him on Friday.
Mr. BELIN. Anything else you remember offhand?
Mr. ADAMCIK. No; I don't believe I do.
Mr. BELIN. Then what did you do?
Mr. ADAMCIK. By then we went ahead and took these people and put them
in a car. I think Mrs. Oswald took both the children. Mrs. Paine got a
neighbor to keep her children and Mrs. Oswald and her two children were
put in our car, the city police car, and Mrs. Paine also went with us,
and Michael Paine, Mrs. Paine's husband, went with the county officer,
and we proceeded to go to the city police station.
Mr. BELIN. Then what?
Mr. ADAMCIK. We took them up to the homicide and robbery bureau office
and conditions were very crowded there, so we moved up to the forgery
bureau next door, and we put them in the interrogation room and waited
a pretty good while.
By this time it was approximately 6 p.m., and I think they were trying
to get an interpreter and question Mrs. Oswald. That was the reason for
the wait.
Mr. BELIN. All right.
Mr. ADAMCIK. Oh, yes, after talking to this Mrs. Randle, we wanted to
talk to Wesley Frazier, and she said that he was at Parkland visiting
his sick daddy.
