Mr. Sorrels. Not that I recall.
As I recall it, I think I went down alone, just the elevator operator and myself. Of course he had my sidearm. I had to get my sidearm from him. If there was anyone else there, I didn’t know.
Mr. Hubert. You had to get your sidearm——
Mr. Sorrels. From the elevator operator.
In other words, you are not permitted to carry a gun inside the jail.
Mr. Hubert. You saw him again later that day?
Mr. Sorrels. Yes, sir; I did.
Mr. Hubert. Can you tell us what time, under what circumstances, where, who was present, and so forth?
Mr. Sorrels. I do not remember just exactly the time, but it was some time after that when Jack Ruby was brought to Captain Fritz’ office, and Captain Fritz questioned him. I was present at that time and heard Captain Fritz interrogate him and made some notes and wrote them up. And I also at that time asked him a few questions myself, on some points I wanted to clarify.
Mr. Hubert. Were you there from the beginning of the interview between Ruby and Fritz, or did you arrive when it was already going on?
