Mr. GRIFFIN. The letter is more accurate than the FBI report?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes; that tells exactly from the time I arrived at the
police station to the time I left, and every move that I made in
between.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, we are talking about Exhibit 5048, which is your
letter of November 26, 1963, to Chief Curry. Are there any corrections
or changes that you would make, or additions that you would make in
that statement, that you can think of right now?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes; it states that I met Jack Ruby sometime when working
with squad 105, 5 or 6 months ago. That was over a year ago instead of
5 or 6 months.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Can you tell us how it is that you now think it
was over a year ago? What is the basis for that change?
Mr. WORLEY. Well, the officer that I worked with on that beat, I talked
to after that, and he hadn't worked that squad in over a year, and it
didn't seem like as long to me.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Who is that officer?
Mr. WORLEY. Regular Officer J. R. Sales.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, did you check? Is there any police record made of
when you work a particular beat?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Have you checked those records to be--to determine when it
would have been that you last worked with that officer?
Mr. WORLEY. No; I haven't.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ask him whether he had checked the records to
determine that?
Mr. WORLEY. No; but the reason that I imagine he stated that is
because he is working another squad now and he knew that it had been
approximately over a year.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, I want you to feel free to make any changes that
you want in here, but I might suggest, and please understand that I
want you to if you don't agree with it, I don't want you to do it any
other way, but it seems to me from what you have said that an accurate
statement would include something to the effect that "I am not sure now
of when it was, because I talked with the officer and he said such and
such, but I have not checked my records, and I don't know if he has."
Now, I would suggest that you make some change like that, if you are
agreeable.
Mr. WORLEY. Well, that is agreeable with me, because I didn't check the
records to see exactly when the last time I worked on that district.
But I did talk to the regular officer and he said that he hadn't worked
that district in over a year, so one way or the other.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Why don't you take the time on that particular exhibit and
write down something that would reflect accurately what happened, on
there. You want me to write it for you?
Mr. WORLEY. On that last sheet, the exhibit, the next one?
Mr. GRIFFIN. On Worley Exhibit No. 5049.
Mr. WORLEY. This one corrects that, and it says it on there.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I see. It is right down at the bottom. Now, I don't see it
on here.
Mr. WORLEY. [Reading.] I would have swore. I read that over a little
while ago. I guess I didn't. I'm sorry, it is not in this one. I knew I
seen it in one of them. It is in the police report.
Mr. GRIFFIN. It is in the FBI report. Well, these are true and accurate
copies, are they not?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I have the letters that you gave?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Now, I am referring to Exhibits 5048 and 5049.
Now, is Exhibit 5047 the interview report, as it is corrected with
respect to Reserve Officer Croy, is that an accurate report of the
interview which you had with those people?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes; but there was some of the things that they had in here
are not what I gave them.
Mr. GRIFFIN. They aren't? All right. What do they have written down
there that you didn't tell them?
Mr. WORLEY. Well, just like it was signed. It says Regular Police
Sergeant Troy, and it should have been Reserve Police Sergeant Croy.
Mr. GRIFFIN. You have made and incorporated a correction on there,
haven't you?
Mr. WORLEY. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. So, insofar as that portion now reads, that is the way the
interview actually went?
Mr. WORLEY. Well, then again it says here [pointing] "some stop right
there * * * to the information desk in the basement to send the other
Reserve officers to the basement parking area"--I don't see that.
Mr. GRIFFIN. What did you say?
Mr. WORLEY. I said to the basement detail room.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Okay. Do you want to make a correction on there?
Mr. WORLEY. [Correcting.] I believe it is all right now.
Mr. GRIFFIN. If Exhibit 5047 as you have corrected it then accurately
reflects what you told the FBI agents, would you initial and date the
corrections that you have made on there?
Mr. WORLEY. You want me just to initial this down here?
Mr. GRIFFIN. Put initials where you have made corrections and a date
afterwards.
