Mr. Leavelle. No; I do not know who decided that they be in the showup. Of course, I am sure whoever did was using them, thinking of the security angle of it more than anything else, rather than getting prisoners down there.
Mr. Ball. Is it unusual to use officers in the showup?
Mr. Leavelle. Yes; we don't normally do it.
Mr. Ball. You usually have other prisoners in the showup?
Mr. Leavelle. Yes, trustees serving time, or——
Mr. Ball. What is your memory as to how these men were dressed?
Mr. Leavelle. I think all of them had on just shirts and trousers, I believe. I don't think there was any coats involved in any of them.
Mr. Ball. Did any have ties?
Mr. Leavelle. None had ties or hats on.
Mr. Ball. Who conducted the showup questioning?
