Mr. Hubert. And you chose the sheriff?
Mr. Armstrong. And I chose the sheriff. I was either going to choose the sheriff or Mr. Gilmore, the head of the vice squad. He has been in the club lots of times.
Mr. Hubert. What is his name?
Mr. Armstrong. Gilbert—I don’t know whether he’s in charge of the vice squad for the city or not, but he is around and he has been to the club, checking in like he does, like policemen do, and he got to—he would always speak to me when he come in and he was always very nice and I was always very nice to him and I’m pretty sure he had some checking done on me, too.
Mr. Hubert. But, in any case, you chose Sheriff Decker?
Mr. Armstrong. But I chose one of the two of them because I didn’t know anybody else to approach—any other officers.
Mr. Hubert. All right, I think we had left off with our analysis of your employment since you left the penitentiary, that you had worked for the Holiday Hills Apartments—how long did you work for them?
Mr. Armstrong. Oh, about 8 or 9 months—it wasn’t too long.
Mr. Hubert. And that employment began, in the summer of 1961?
Mr. Armstrong. Yes, and it ended a little before Christmas—I think it was around the 1st of December.
