Mr. Hall. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. Let me ask you this general question: first of all, did you or anyone in your presence, threaten Jack Ruby, offer him any promises of help, take any action or do anything to affect the voluntary nature of what he said?
Mr. Hall. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. Is it your opinion that what Jack Ruby told you was completely voluntary?
Mr. Hall. Yes, sir. At 12:45 p.m. on November 24 I advised Jack Ruby at the beginning of the interview that he was not required to make any statement, that he had a right to talk with an attorney before making any statement and that any statements he made could be used against him in a court of law.
Mr. Hubert. And he indicated he understood what that meant?
Mr. Hall. Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert. Did he ask for any attorney?
Mr. Hall. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. How did Mr. Howard get into the matter; do you know?
