Mr. Hubert. I understand that, but the transfer to you would not have cut off their opportunity to investigate?
Mr. Decker. Oh, no—no—it wouldn't have cut it off to anybody—any law enforcing agency. Just the same as Ruby, Ruby has been interviewed in my jail by city police, the FBI agents, and incidentally may I ask you a question?
Mr. Hubert. Well——
Mr. Decker. If you can answer it, all well and good—I can't. I keep getting information here that we are going to have you people—you people are going to attempt to interview this prisoner that I have now, and if that is correct, why of course I would like to make some provisions to talk to somebody before it happens. Of course, it will take a court order for me to move him, which of course you know is no trouble to obtain—you know that.
Mr. Hubert. I can't comment on that.
Mr. Decker. Don't, if you can't, sir—it's all right, but of course I am leaving that with you that I would like to have some advance knowledge. You can comment on that—that you will do it if you have any knowledge.
Mr. Hubert. Well, I'm sure if such a decision is made by the people who are authorized to make it, that they will cooperate with you in every way possible.
Mr. Decker. And, I would like to keep it out of the press also because every time I turn around with Mr. Ruby, I am blasted with this.
Mr. Hubert. Of course, that's another matter—that's out of my control.
Mr. Decker. Yes.
