United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Lieutenant REVILL. It seems like I do recall Mayo saying something like
that, and I believe he referred this man to Lieutenant Gilmore of the
Special Service Bureau. I believe he told me that, but I don't see it
here and I don't know why we omitted that, but I think we--I do recall
him making such a statement. George Senator, I believe he would have
been the individual.
Mr. HUBERT. Yes. He described him as having a slight limp, too, I think
he said.
Lieutenant REVILL. This, I don't know.
Mr. HUBERT. But, you do not recall right now why it was not made a part
of the interview?
Lieutenant REVILL. Just an oversight on my part. It should have been
listed here.
Mr. HUBERT. There is one other thing that Mayo states that he told you,
which apparently is not in the report, that is about a man and a woman
who had been hanging around the Main Street entrance apparently after
the shooting. Apparently they were tourists from Springfield, Ill., and
they wanted to take some pictures and stated that to you that----
Lieutenant REVILL. No, sir; he did not state this to me.
Mr. HUBERT. As to that episode, then, you do not recall that that was
stated to you?
Lieutenant REVILL. I would say that he did not relate this to me.
Mr. HUBERT. Well, as I see the three episodes then, as to the first one
regarding the minister, your thought is that he may have stated to you,
but you do not remember?
Lieutenant REVILL. I don't recall.
Mr. HUBERT. Nor do you recall why he omitted it from your report?
Lieutenant REVILL. This might have happened. It was subsequent to this
I found a preacher who wanted to talk to Oswald, and he went to Chief
Batchelor's office, and----
Mr. HUBERT. When subsequent to what?
Lieutenant REVILL. Subsequent to the shooting.
Mr. HUBERT. Oh, I see.
Lieutenant REVILL. No, prior to the shooting, and subsequently--he was
probably talking to--let's see, he arrived at city hall at 9:30. This
preacher's name is Ray Rushing. He is an evangelist, Radio Evangelist.
Mr. HUBERT. And that was reported and the man was interviewed?
Lieutenant REVILL. It was not reported because I myself found this man.
Mr. HUBERT. But----
Lieutenant REVILL. There is no report on it, because it is in--it
had nothing to do with the shooting. He had gone to Sheriff Decker's
office, and Decker referred him to the city thinking that Oswald had
not been transferred, so, he came to the city hall and went to the
third floor, and--by the way, he rode up on the elevator with Jack
Ruby, now----
Mr. HUBERT. This Rushing?
Lieutenant REVILL. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Rode to the third floor----
Lieutenant REVILL. Now, he says this.
Mr. HUBERT. Oh, he says this.
