But as near as I can remember, it came from the back seat.
Mr. Belin. Was there any reply by the suspect along the lines of "Well, I understand it only takes a minute," or something like that?
Did you hear him say anything like that?
Mr. Hill. I don't recall that statement. It could have been made, because there were about half a dozen conversations actually going on in the car.
At one point after I opened the pistol, and I did open it in the car, and found that one of the slugs or one of the shells did have an indention to the primer that could have been caused by the hammer, we made a comment that he tried or he did pull the trigger, and this was in line with what Hutson had asked me, in the theatre, had I heard the gun click.
Mr. Belin. Anything else that happened in the car?
Mr. Hill. Not that I can recall of specific detail.
There was quite a bit of excitement.
Everybody had been in the little scuffle and were huffing and puffing, and especially me, as fat as I am, but there weren't any, I don't recall any more direct statements. There was nothing ever said in the car that I can recall that would have put it at this time. We didn't have enough to be sure that maybe the two were tied together.
Mr. Belin. Anything else about the demeanor of the witness at all?
