Mr. Griffin. You don’t have any personal knowledge, however, that the friendship with Howard was the reason that Brunner didn’t take the case?
Mr. Hubert. With Wade.
Mr. Griffin. With Wade. You don’t know this?
Mr. Ruby. No; I talked to Brunner myself when I was down there later on. Brunner said something to the effect—I don’t remember the exact words. I ran into him in the county jail. I don’t remember what he said.
Mr. Griffin. Did he say anything to you about why he didn’t get into the case?
Mr. Ruby. I am just trying to, if I can find the words or something close to what he said. We just met in the hallway, and he said—I can’t recall that conversation at all.
Mr. Griffin. Did Brunner mention——
Mr. Ruby. But I had a later conversation which I remember very clearly,——
Mr. Griffin. Tell us about that.
Mr. Ruby. This was after Jack received the sentence, you know.
