Mr. Pic. Yes, sir; she was home.
Mr. Jenner. You went and spoke with your mother?
Mr. Pic. Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner. Was Lee present when you spoke to your mother?
Mr. Pic. No, sir.
Mr. Jenner. What did you say to your mother and what did she say to you?
Mr. Pic. I asked her about the incident and she attempted to brush it off as not being as serious as my wife put it. That Lee did not pull a pocketknife on her. That they just had a little argument about what TV channel they were going to watch. Being as prejudiced as I am I rather believed my wife rather than my mother.
Mr. Jenner. Did you speak to Lee about the incident?
Mr. Pic. I am getting to that, sir. So I approached Lee on this subject, and about the first couple of words out of my wife he became real hostile toward me, and let me get my notes on it. When this happened it perturbed my wife so much that she told them they are going to leave whether they liked it or not, and I think Lee had the hostility toward my wife right then and there, when they were getting thrown out of the house as they put it.
When I attempted to talk to Lee about this, he ignored me, and I was never able to get to the kid again after that. He didn't care to hear anything I had to say to him. So in a matter of a few days they packed up and left, sir. They moved to the Bronx somewhere.
