Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
Mr. Rankin. What about the newspaper and television and radio people? Have some of those tried to see you while you were at the Martins?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, they have tried.
Mr. Rankin. And have you done anything about their efforts to see you?
Mrs. Oswald. I never wanted to be popular in such a bad sense in which I am now, and therefore I didn't want to see them. But I did have a television interview in which I said that I am relatively satisfied with my situation, that I am not too worried and I thanked people for their attention towards me.
Mr. Rankin. Will you describe to us your relationship with your mother-in-law now?
Mrs. Oswald. After all of this happened I met with her at the police station. I was, of course, very sorry for her as Lee's mother. I was always sorry for her because Lee did not want to live with her.
I understood her motherly concern. But in view of the fact of everything that happened later, her appearances in the radio, in the press, I do not think that she is a very sound thinking woman, and I think that part of the guilt is hers. I do not accuse her, but I think that part of the guilt in connection with what happened with Lee lies with her because he did not perhaps receive the education he should have during his childhood, and he did not have any correct leadership on her part, guidance. If she were in contact with my children now, I do not want her to cripple them.
Mr. Rankin. Has she tried to see you since the assassination?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, all the time.
