Mr. Dean. No, sir.
Mr. Griffin. Now, why were you going up to the third floor?
Mr. Dean. I was going to Captain Fritz' office.
Mr. Griffin. And what were you going to do up there?
Mr. Dean. I was just going to see if Jack Ruby was in Captain Fritz' office, or whether he was taken immediately to the jail. I didn't know where he was taken to.
Mr. Griffin. Why did you want to go up to see Jack Ruby?
Mr. Dean. To see if they were—this was in my mind, to see if they were going to go ahead and identify him, because I knew other pressmen and other people were going to be asking me, since I had this interview, and see if—did he want me to go ahead and identify him or do what I did in the initial interview, say that this information will have to come from Captain Fritz' office. It really wasn't significant. I knew that I would be talked to at later times all during the day and pressed for the identity of this man, and I wanted to ask them there did they want us to release it or want them to keep it and release it themselves.
Mr. Griffin. You had already told the newsmen?
Mr. Dean. Yes, sir. I had already told the newsmen this. I didn't identify the man.
Mr. Griffin. You had already told the newsmen that the man who shot Oswald was Ruby?
