Mr. Jenner. Do you recall commenting, along with Mrs. De Mohrenschildt, that you know of no connection that did or could have existed between Lee Oswald and any organization or government because you thought nobody could stand him, and that you questioned his mental stability?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. That is right. I remember making that statement. I think it was in Port au Prince that I made that statement.
Naturally anybody—who would—in our opinion, if he killed the President of the United States, he must have been mentally unstable. I could not find any other explanation. Or somebody might have paid him for it. But this is another speculation that came to me later on. But, again, it is purely speculation on our part.
Mr. Jenner. Well, you had no—now that you have made that statement, I have to pursue it.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. By reading the papers, you know—we had no other information. By reading the papers and putting two and two together we started wondering, maybe there is something behind it, you see—especially I remember reading in one of the papers that——
Mr. Jenner. Which papers are these—foreign language papers?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. No; American papers. We haven't read any foreign language papers. We get the Miami Herald, New York Times, we get Haitian papers, French language papers, of course. And I think in one of those papers it was said that Lee Oswald mentioned to his wife before the assassination that he was going to get some money.
Mr. Jenner. So when you read that article——
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. When I read that article, then the idea started coming—arising in my imagination.
Mr. Jenner. Assuming the article was correct, that Oswald had said to Marina that he was going to get some money from some source?
