Mr. Graves. Oh, I’d hate to say this for the record, not seeing my report. Until he died. This in the basement happened about 11:10, or 11:19, and we reached Parkland a few minutes after. He was pronounced dead at 1 something.
Mr. Griffin. I don’t really care about the exact time. We are going to get the time records and check it out there but what I am trying to establish is when you learned that he was dead, what did you do?
Mr. Graves. Well, of course, we made arrangements to get the pathologist up there and maintaining guards over him, even during the time he was in the morgue. We discussed that, and then Clardy and Brown were charged with that responsibility, and I changed clothes and me and Leavelle, I believe me and Leavelle came back to city hall with Officer Burgess.
Mr. Griffin. About what time would you say he got back to the city hall?
Mr. Graves. Well, again, I wouldn’t want to say definitely. I think somewhere around 2:30 or 3:45, somewhere in that vicinity.
Mr. Griffin. Up to the time that you got back to city hall, had you heard anything about how Ruby might have gotten into the basement?
Mr. Graves. No; I hadn’t, sure hadn’t. Of course, everyone was wondering at that point how it happened and how he got in there, but I hadn’t heard anything at that point. Hadn’t seen or been around anybody except those that I went out there with and they didn’t know any more than I did.
Mr. Griffin. When you got back to the police department, what did you do?
Mr. Graves. I went back to the office, of course.
Mr. Griffin. Homicide bureau?
