Mr. Litchfield. I was shown a police photograph of him, front and side view, with three others.
Mr. Hubert. What was your impression at that time as to whether Oswald was the man you had seen in the Carousel?
Mr. Litchfield. I wasn’t asked my impression at that time—all I was asked is, “Pick out Oswald,” and I said, “There he is, anybody walking in Dallas could do it.”
Mr. Hubert. What was the purpose in having you pick out Oswald?
Mr. Litchfield. I would imagine the police department wanted to know if I really knew him or really had seen someone like him.
Mr. Hubert. Well, when you picked out Oswald, were you simply picking out Oswald because you had seen his picture on television, or were you picking him out because he was the man you thought you had seen in the Carousel?
Mr. Litchfield. When I picked out his picture, I was picking it out because I had seen it on television so many times.
Mr. Hubert. Now, the police wouldn’t ask you to pick out Oswald’s picture unless there was some reason for your specific identification of Oswald.
Mr. Litchfield. Well——
Mr. Hubert. You had called Green, from what you tell me, to tell him that you thought that you had seen a man who looked like Oswald at the Carousel?
