Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. McMILLON. No. I would rather you get that from the department. That
is Captain Nichols’, a copy that he had in his office, but I am sure he
will give it to you.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I see. You don’t even want to let us copy it without
getting his permission?
Mr. McMILLON. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Will you call him before you leave here and ask
him if we can copy this?
Mr. McMILLON. Sure. You can call him right now.
Mr. GRIFFIN. No. Let’s get on with it.
Mr. McMILLON. I want any permission to come from them. I don’t want the
responsibility of giving out departmental stuff.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I understand. You say that Captain Nichols told you to
prepare a report of what happened?
Mr. McMILLON. He instructed everybody to.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, have you--has any information come into your
possession or did you know at the time whether Captain Nichols was
acting on his own or whether other department heads had been instructed?
Mr. McMILLON. I didn’t know at the time when he instructed us if that
was his own or if he had been instructed to have us do same.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, is Captain Nichols the head of the auto theft bureau?
Mr. McMILLON. Yes, he is.
(Discussion off of the record.)
Mr. GRIFFIN. That was Assistant Chief Batchelor, and I asked him if
I could have permission to copy it, and he said “Okay.” Is that good
enough for you?
Mr. McMILLON. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Let me do this right now. Let me take the copy of it and
give it to one of our girls and ask her to take it and get a copy of
it. Excuse me. Do you know, Detective McMillon, if people in any of the
other bureaus were asked to make reports on the 24th?
Mr. McMILLON. I don’t know. I am sure some of them were.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Uh-huh. Now, let me mark for identification a document
which purports to be the report of an interview conducted with you by
Special Agents George W. H. Carlson and Paul H. Scott of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. I will mark this, “Dallas, Texas, Detective
McMillon, 3-25-64,” and this will be Exhibit 5019. Have you had a
chance, to read over what is marked Exhibit 5019?
Mr. McMILLON. Yes, I have.
Mr. GRIFFIN. And do you have any additions or corrections you want to
make in that?
Mr. McMILLON. No.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Would you take these three exhibits? You have
signed the first one. Would you sign and date Exhibit 5018 and Exhibit
5019?
Mr. McMILLON. Where do you want them signed?
Mr. GRIFFIN. Any appropriate place where you have got space.
Mr. McMILLON. The reason I am looking through this--one second.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Yes.
Mr. McMILLON. See, there are two FBI reports, is that right?
Mr. GRIFFIN. Right.
Mr. McMILLON. And then the copy.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Of your report?
Mr. McMILLON. Yes. You are missing one copy, one other statement that I
made.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I am? Now, can you get a copy of that for us?
Mr. McMILLON. I don’t know if I can or not. The department has it. I am
sure it is available to us, because they had it during the trial.
