Mr. Crafard.

I was where I would have found out if it was so, yes, on several occasions.

Mr. Hubert.

In other words, you went to listen to radio programs or TV programs with an effort to find out, among other things, whether they were looking for you?

Mr. Crafard.

That is right.
'Mr. HUBERT. So that you might communicate with them and tell them where you were?

Mr. Crafard.

That is right. I figured one thing. I hadn't done anything wrong. I had no reason to hide from anything because I hadn't done anything wrong, so if there had been any indication whatsoever that they was looking for me I would have walked into the nearest police station and turned myself in.

Mr. Griffin.

Did you feel that anybody else had done anything wrong?

Mr. Crafard.

No. I knew from what I had heard that Ruby had killed, shot Oswald, I knew it was wrong. Like I say, I mean I had no idea that anybody else connected with him had done anything.

Mr. Hubert.

What made you think in the first place that there might be some suspicion cast upon you?

Mr. Crafard.

Well, the way I left, after I found out that Ruby shot Oswald, the way I left, I thought just suddenly like that, didn't leave any word to anybody where I was going or anything.

Mr. Hubert.

How would that connect you with the killing of Oswald?

Mr. Crafard.

I had been working for Ruby. He had shot Oswald. It could be kind of insinuating circumstances why I left and everything like that.

Mr. Hubert.

But you had left before Oswald was shot?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes; I had left before Oswald was shot.

Mr. Hubert.

So that really your concern was not that they would connect you with the killing of Oswald?

Mr. Crafard.

No.

Mr. Hubert.

But that----

Mr. Crafard.

They might think that I had done something wrong, myself.

Mr. Hubert.

With reference to what?

Mr. Crafard.

To anything, I mean breaking the law in any way.

Mr. Hubert.

With reference to the shooting of the President, too?

Mr. Crafard.

How is that?

Mr. Hubert.

With reference to shooting of the President?

Mr. Crafard.

Well, it could be that they might have thought I was involved in that in some way or something like that, and I just figured if they thought, you know, the way I had left if they had any idea at all that would further their idea, I mean if they had any idea that any of Ruby's employees were involved in it, that would further the idea that I had been involved in this, in it.

Mr. Hubert.

You actually thought about that?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes; I felt----

Mr. Hubert.

That was the thing that gave you concern and that is what you talked to your sister about?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes; it kind of bothered me a little bit.

Mr. Hubert.

Couldn't you have ended the bother by going to the nearest police force?

Mr. Crafard.

I probably could have. I never even thought about going in like that, just walking in and talking to them, asking them about it or anything.

Mr. Griffin.

Did you fear when you left Dallas that things might be happening which would get you in trouble?

Mr. Crafard.

No; it never entered my mind. I figured that that would be the end of things when they had caught Oswald, I kind of figured that would be the end of it and he would come to trial.

Mr. Griffin.

Did you fear that things might be happening which would get Jack or other people you knew in trouble?

Mr. Crafard.

No; I didn't.

Mr. Hubert.

Let's put it point blank to you, Larry. Did you think that possibly Ruby or someone among his friends might have had something to do with this and the best thing for you to do as an innocent person was to get out of there?
