United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. JENNER. And is that the last time you had even any indirect
contact--people speaking of her--that is, prior to November 22--did you
hear about her in between?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. No.
Mr. JENNER. Not at all?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. No.
Mr. JENNER. When you were assisting them with their child and went to
their apartment, that apartment was here in Dallas, was it?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Yes; I think it was in Oak Cliff.
Mr. JENNER. In Oak Cliff?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. I think was in Oak Cliff.
Mr. JENNER. In your driving to the clinic that evening with Lee Oswald
and Marina and the baby and your returning home that night, was there
any discussion at any time, other than you have already indicated, of
his views with respect to Russia?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. It was just only about the hospitalization.
Mr. JENNER. Only the hospitalization?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Yes, sir; that's right.
Mr. JENNER. Did you learn, during the course of those visits with
Marina and the visit to the hospital with both of them, as to whether
he had been in Russia?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. I knew; yes.
Mr. JENNER. You knew that before--well, I'll ask you this: How did you
know he had been to Russia?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. I knew from George Bouhe.
Mr. JENNER. From George Bouhe?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Yes; he told me about it--uh--one person who went to
Russia and then he come back with Russian wife and a baby--back to
United States. "Well," I say, "that's one thing--that he learned
something. To go to Russia and he didn't like it and then he come back.
He was just lucky that he did come back to United States."
Mr. JENNER. He was fortunate that he could come back?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. That's right.
Mr. JENNER. In your talks with Marina that morning, when you were
taking her to the hospital and you brought her back, you were with her
a good many hours?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Oh--let me see. It was maybe till 2 o'clock--2:30 maybe.
Mr. JENNER. Did she say anything about the circumstances of her meeting
Oswald in Russia? Did she tell you anything about her life or their
lives in Russia and their life here in the United States? Did you girls
have some smalltalk?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. It was just about life in United States; not in Russia.
Mr. JENNER. Not in Russia?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. No.
She told me that her husband want to go back to Russia.
Mr. JENNER. Oh, she did?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. "And I don't want to go," she say.
Mr. JENNER. Fine. Tell me about that. Was it, to the best of your
recollection, that her husband wanted to go back to Russia, including
himself and her?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Or was it that he wanted her to go back to Russia and he
was going to stay here?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. No; he wanted to go with her.
Mr. JENNER. Yes.
Mrs. DYMITRUK. And she said, "He can go if he want to, but I don't
go--because I like here and I don't go."
Mr. JENNER. I see. But she did make a point of telling you about that?
Mrs. DYMITRUK. Yes.
