United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. GRIFFIN. And came off and assisted two other men who had already
been pushing that camera through the door, and that man reached the
camera at approximately when that camera was near Lowery?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. That is what I was told, what I heard.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, if that were true, do you think as you look at--out
in the area toward where Lowery and that camera would have been at that
point, that you would have seen a man walk over there to that camera?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. If I had been looking there at that time, I could have;
yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Now, what I am getting at is, the area that was
in front of those two stationery TV cameras was clear, wasn't it?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. Yes; because the cameras and lights were right here. And
they had lights up here shining in here.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Yes.
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. Now, the camera came this route here through these
swinging doors.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you see it come through the swinging doors?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. Yes; I saw it coming through the swinging doors because
these doors came open and they come through, and I was standing right
here. I wasn't right exactly at the corner door, but I was in the
doorway at the time.
I held one of the doors open when they came through, and the camera
came right on down here and was parked in this area.
Mr. GRIFFIN. You are indicating on the chart that it was pushed through
the swinging doors where Lowery was stationed and over to the point
that you have marked it as the final resting place in the garage
entrance?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. That is where I saw it; yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. You have also been told that this same channel 5 had some
other new camera behind the railing?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. Right.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, in front of that railing, was that area in front of
the railing clear of people at the time that that camera came through?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. I don't remember whether it was exactly clear or not.
I know that right after the camera came through, that these men down
here started hollering to everyone to clear back. Evidently some were
standing in front of the cameras down there and that is why they had to
clear them out.
So far as I remember, most of the people were standing here, and in
front of the door, and on the south side of the hallway into the ramp,
and on the north side of the hallway, and into the ramp there.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, this guy you say had on a dark suit?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. Right.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you recall if he had on a hat?
Mr. CUTCHSHAW. I do not, because the man I saw was bent over pushing
like that [indicating]. All three is what struck me strange that all
three of them, not one was putting all his weight, but all three were
bent over pushing like that.
Mr. GRIFFIN. At the time that you ran for those TV cameras after the
shooting, did you know that Jack Ruby had been the person who shot
Oswald?
