Chief Curry. I had a lot of communications from local FBI who inferred that these orders were coming out of Washington, or the questions were coming out of Washington about various things, insisting that the evidence be shipped up there immediately, and the fact that we shouldn’t show anything on television.
Several things of that nature, but I don’t recall specifically saying that the results of this investigation should not be revealed. They did reveal a part of it, you know, about the rifle.
As you recall it, there was no evidence—pardon me. There was no part of their investigation revealed until they revealed it as I recall. I never had any contact with Hoover.
Mr. Hubert. Do you know yourself as to what food was made available to Oswald during the time he was in the custody of the police department?
Chief Curry. Not exactly. Our jail meals usually consist of breakfast and dinner. They usually have a cooked cereal of some kind, some stewed fruit, bread, and coffee for breakfast. For their other meal, they usually have beans cooked with some kind of meat, some kind of vegetables served, and bread and coffee.
Mr. Hubert. Then at night?
Chief Curry. They serve two meals a day.
Mr. Hubert. He was treated, so far as you know, as every other prisoner?
Chief Curry. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Insofar as the physical comforts were concerned, there was no distinction made between him and any other prisoner?
