Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you know whether other people you worked with in the narcotics bureau might have attempted to use him? Mr. BEATY. No, sir; I don't know. Mr. GRIFFIN. Were you familiar with any narcotics investigation that ever took place with respect to Jack Ruby? Mr. BEATY. None. Mr. GRIFFIN. Now how often would you say that you saw Ruby during the last 3 years? Mr. BEATY. Possibly, four, maybe five times. Mr. GRIFFIN. What were the occasions for seeing Jack? Mr. BEATY. Well, I saw him one time. I was working late nights and I saw him walking his dog after his joint closed down on Commerce Street, and I run into him on the street, and I go by his joint. You don't say hello and look around. You say hello. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did Jack ever stop in and visit you while you were in your office at the police department? Mr. BEATY. Yes; that was the last time I saw him before the shooting. He came by--didn't particularly come to see me, but he just came to the office. Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you recall about when that was? Mr. BEATY. No; it seemed like it was about a month before all this happened, something like that. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did he speak to anybody in the narcotics office? Mr. BEATY. Yes; he talked to myself, and I believe Lieutenant Cornwall was in and out of the office, and Dan Asabell. Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you remember what you all talked with Jack about? Mr. BEATY. Yes; he talked about a girl. He had a stripper down there. Let me think if I remember what her name was. Jada from New Orleans. The whole thing was how he thought Jada was just a little indecent about her act and he would have to turn the lights off every once in a while and tell her to clean it up a little bit, and one thing and another. And how they went through a little "Hazel" in Judge Richburg's court over all this. It was all in the papers, the whole story was and that is about the gist of what we talked about. And Jada testified at the previous thing. The bureau I work in, the special bureau, also handles all the dancehall licenses and the liquor licenses and it could be that, I don't believe he made a special trip to our office, I think he came to the bureau and might have had a little business for a liquor license, or something, I don't know. I didn't ask him about it at all. Mr. GRIFFIN. All right, the narcotics bureau, is that correct to call it a bureau? Mr. BEATY. Section. Mr. GRIFFIN. Narcotics section is a subdivision of the special service bureau, is that correct? Mr. BEATY. Yes. Mr. GRIFFIN. Within the special service bureau, there is a department which handles dancehall policemen? Mr. BEATY. That's right. Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, does everybody who is a part of the special service bureau occupy the same suite of offices? Mr. BEATY. No, sir. Mr. GRIFFIN. Does the narcotics bureau occupy the same suite of offices as the dancehall bureau? Mr. BEATY. Yes, sir. Mr. GRIFFIN. What other people occupy the same suite of offices? Mr. BEATY. Vice squad.
