Mr. Griffin.
When you drove back, did you drive back with anybody?
Mr. Dean.
No, sir; by myself.
Mr. Griffin.
Now, what did you do when you got back to central police
Mr. Dean.
I went to our office on the second floor, the patrol captain's office.
Mr. Griffin.
And who was there?
Mr. Dean.
Well, I don't recall exactly. I know this was again getting close to the change time. It was somewhere around 2 o'clock, and the secretary told me that I had several phone calls waiting on me, and one of--well, there were some long distance calls that .had seen me on television, and. I didn't
answer all of them.
Mr. Griffin.
Any phone calls from anybody you knew?
Mr. Dean.
No; my wife had called. I mean. there had Just been a .lot of people calling.
Mr. Griffin.
Now, did you make any phone calls when you got that message that you had calls ?
Mr. Dean.
No, sir; at the time, about--the only phone call that I had taken was the dispatcher called and--just about the time I walked in, and said that I had a long distance call from-oh, Chicago or somewhere, and they transferred it down there, and, of course, they were asking who this man was, how did he get in, questions that newsmen--it was from some radio station.. I didn't
Mr. Griffin.
In Chicago. And did you tell them?
Mr. Dean.
No, sir.
Mr. Griffin.
Then what did you do after that long distance telephone call from Chicago?
Mr. Dean.
Well, there was newsmen from KLIF came into the office, asked would I give him a short interview, which I did.
Mr. Griffin.
Who were those people?
Mr. Dean.
This man, it was Glen Duncan. I didn't know him before, I hadn't seen him before.
Mr. Griffin.
Anybody else that you remember with him?
Mr. Dean.
No, .sir; he was by himself.
Mr. Griffin.
And was that a tape-recorded interview ?
Mr. Dean.
Yes, sir; station KLIF.
Mr. Griffin.
And how long did that interview last?
Mr. Dean.
Gosh, I don't know. Maybe 4 or 5 minutes.
Mr. Griffin.
Did you ever get a copy of that interview from them?
Mr. Dean.
He sent me one, and it's at home somewhere. It didn't play on my recorder and I didn't even try to play it since then.
Mr. Griffin.
Would you supply that to the Commission?
Mr. Dean.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Griffin.
If you would make a note of that, I would appreciate it.
Mr. Dean.
Any particular speed that you want this ?
Mr. Griffin.
No; and incidentally, if you would like it transcribed at a speed that will play on your recorder, I am sure we would be happy to do that for you, and just exchange tapes, since we are taking a tape from you, we will
give it back to you at a speed you can play.
Mr. Dean.
Okay; all right.
Mr. Griffin.
Now, where did this KLIF interview take place ?
Mr. Dean.
It was on the second floor there in the small room that was unoccupied at the time.
Mr. Griffin.
What did you do after that interview?
Mr. Dean.
I stayed around the office. I don't remember anything particularly that I did do. Again, answering questions of people coming on. I think that some men had been called in from off duty to report for duty. Gosh, I don't even remember what time I got off from work that day.
