Mr. Bouhe. There again she acts so natural that I was disarmed. But at this stage of the game, maybe I was a fool.
Mr. Liebeler. Why do you say that, Mr. Bouhe?
Mr. Bouhe. Maybe she is a superagent of some organization.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have any reason to think that prior to the time of the assassination?
Mr. Bouhe. Certainly not. Never entered into my head.
Mr. Liebeler. But it has entered into your head since the assassination, is that correct?
Mr. Bouhe. Well, after that, you think of anything.
Mr. Liebeler. But there was nothing about Marina's behavior as you observed it prior to the assassination that led you to think that?
Mr. Bouhe. Positively nothing. But we did in the Russian colony have conversations. We were repeatedly amazed at the ease with which Marina left the U.S.S.R., which we, who know the setup on the other side, is almost incredible.
American, British, and other diplomats married Russian girls and it took them years to get their wives out. And at one moment I did ask, I think, both of them.
