Mr. CRAFARD. No, sir; it isn’t.
Mr. HUBERT. Were you contemplating, as a matter of fact, going to some
police agency prior to the time the FBI came to you?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; I don’t believe that I was.
Mr. HUBERT. How did you expect to get this positive evidence that they
were looking for you?
Mr. CRAFARD. I just figured if it was possible they might put something
in the paper or maybe something over the radio or something and if I
heard that they was looking for a young fellow that had worked for Ruby
by the name of Larry or anything like that, they was looking for this
young fellow that had worked for Ruby or anything, that I would have
went in and told them who I was.
Mr. HUBERT. I understood you said there was no radio or newspaper at
your sister’s house.
Mr. CRAFARD. No; but I was at other people’s places that had radios.
Mr. HUBERT. You expected to get the information that way?
Mr. CRAFARD. I didn’t stay with my sister all the time.
Mr. HUBERT. So that you were making an effort to find out if they were
looking for you?
Mr. CRAFARD. I was where I would have found out if it was so, yes, on
several occasions.
Mr. HUBERT. In other words, you went to listen to radio programs or TV
programs with an effort to find out, among other things, whether they
were looking for you?
Mr. CRAFARD. That is right.
Mr. HUBERT. So that you might communicate with them and tell them where
you were?
Mr. CRAFARD. That is right. I figured one thing. I hadn’t done anything
wrong. I had no reason to hide from anything because I hadn’t done
anything wrong, so if there had been any indication whatsoever that
they was looking for me I would have walked into the nearest police
station and turned myself in.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you feel that anybody else had done anything wrong?
Mr. CRAFARD. No. I knew from what I had heard that Ruby had killed,
shot Oswald, I knew it was wrong. Like I say, I mean I had no idea that
anybody else connected with him had done anything.
Mr. HUBERT. What made you think in the first place that there might be
some suspicion cast upon you?
Mr. CRAFARD. Well, the way I left, after I found out that Ruby shot
Oswald, the way I left, I thought just suddenly like that, didn’t leave
any word to anybody where I was going or anything.
Mr. HUBERT. How would that connect you with the killing of Oswald?
Mr. CRAFARD. I had been working for Ruby. He had shot Oswald. It could
be kind of insinuating circumstances why I left and everything like
that.
Mr. HUBERT. But you had left before Oswald was shot?
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes; I had left before Oswald was shot.
Mr. HUBERT. So that really your concern was not that they would connect
you with the killing of Oswald?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
