Chief Curry. I don’t recall other than someone perhaps thought we could slip him out and it might be better to slip him out rather than to move him according to normal procedures.

Mr. Hubert. Well, did the fact that there were so many members of the press present in the basement bear upon that question, or do you recall whether that was the reasoning that Fritz suggested?

Chief Curry. I don’t recall; no. I don’t believe it was Fritz that suggested he be taken out through the first floor. I think he was opposed to it. Anyway, it was not discussed in great detail.

Mr. Hubert. I understand there was some discussion of not going through the basement area, but using another way, and what I wanted to know was what was the reason given for that, whoever gave it?

Chief Curry. Because of the press, I am sure.

Mr. Hubert. And the danger that would exist from a one-man attack?

Chief Curry. Perhaps that was in the mind of whoever suggested this. But their main thought was to avoid these reporters.

Mr. Hubert. Chief, I don’t think we have discussed anything off the record that has not been covered on the record, and it is necessary for me to close this deposition by asking you if there has been anything off the record that was not subsequently brought on the record? My reaction is that there has not been, and I ask you if you agree with that?

Chief Curry. I agree with that.

Mr. Hubert. All right, do you have anything else?
