Mr. Beaty. I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you.
Mr. Griffin. You certainly didn't expect that you were going to have any trouble from newspaper people, because you were all backed up against the wall, weren't you?
Mr. Beaty. I couldn't tell you, sir.
Mr. Griffin. Now, before Ruby shot Oswald, what did you do?
Mr. Beaty. When?
Mr. Griffin. Before Ruby shot Oswald.
Mr. Beaty. When we first, it occurred to me at the time that—you don't have policemen for 15 years, you don't have to sit down and draw them a diagram to have them cover somebody, and Captain Jones said make the way open, and it occurred to me that if we had to move around that corner, fine. At that time there were people all around here and out in the driveway.
Mr. Griffin. At the time Captain Jones set you up, there had been people there?
Mr. Beaty. Yes; there had.
Mr. Griffin. You then displaced news people, is that right?
