Mr. Hansen. He wasn’t standing talking to them, but he wasn’t standing far from them, or he walked up or was approaching there.
Mr. Griffin. What time of day would that have been?
Mr. Hansen. It was in the morning.
Mr. Griffin. Before you reported to work, or after?
Mr. Hansen. It was before I reported to work. I was in civilian clothes. I hadn’t suited out. I didn’t have my uniform on. I would say it was probably between 8:15 and 9:30.
Mr. Griffin. Do you have a regular time to report for work?
Mr. Hansen. When I go to work on a regular shift, regular hours, unless we are called in early or late, I have to be in the detail room at 9:45. Now, that means I have to be there ready to listen to the sergeant put out the poop on us and all of us come in anywhere from 8:30 until about 9 o’clock. Nearly all policemen come in like that and go to the locker room and shoot the breeze before we get ready to go out, about what happened the day before. So I would say it was probably between 8:15 and 9:30. That is as near as I can estimate it.
Mr. Griffin. How long did you speak with Jack?
Mr. Hansen. Oh, I never stopped. I just kept moving. “Hi, Jack, I got to go get ready,” something like that. And I said, “See you.” It wasn’t much of a, like I say, it wasn’t what you call a conversation. Just like a running conversation.
Mr. Griffin. Is it possible that it could have been even 2 or 3 days before the President arrived?
