There are just so many things that are unbelievable, that a person like Oswald, would be allowed to do the things in Russia.

Mr. Jenner. We are interested in that sort of an opinion. What is the basis of your opinion in that respect?

Mr. Raigorodsky. Well, I have studied communism and I have watched them operating, you know.

Mr. Jenner. All right.

(Discussion between Counsel Jenner and the witness, Raigorodsky, off the record.)

Mr. Jenner. Now, I want that on the record.

Mr. Raigorodsky. Well—the fact that they gave you all of the record, they gave you all of the records on Oswald, that he was running around in Russia, marrying a Russian woman, that she was allowed to go out of Russia—I know several cases where they wouldn't allow a person whom Americans marry to come for several years. Here, everything was (snapping his fingers) so—just like that. It just reads too much like a fairy tale. I mean, as much as they claim they don't trust him, they surely didn't show it by the action in granting him different things which he received in Russia and in this country.

Now, Marina, I don't know anything about her.

Mr. Jenner. This is your supposition and rationalization on your part?

Mr. Raigorodsky. That is correct.
