(Testimony of Theodore Jackson)

Mr. Hubert.
Key to what? The ignition?
Mr. Jackson.
The ignition key, and I think the trunk key, and they opened up the trunk and there was a bunch of sacks in the trunk. I don't know what was in them, and after they told me they was detectives, that was Jack Ruby's car, and I just took the ticket off the car and they were going--said they was going to take the car to the pound, and said something or another about calling somebody.
Mr. Hubert.
Doing what?
Mr. Jackson.
Said something or another about calling somebody, some of his relatives or something to see what they wanted to do with his dog. They were going to take the car to the pound.
Mr. Hubert.
Did they do anything with this dog, that you know of?
Mr. Jackson.
I don't know. They took the car to the pound.
Mr. Hubert.
What happened to the dog? Was it still in the car when they took it?
Mr. Jackson.
Yes; the dog was still in the car.
Mr. Hubert.
Did they make any calls that you knew of?
Mr. Jackson.
They went over and used the other telephone in John L. Daniels' office.
Mr. Hubert.
I see.
Mr. Jackson.
See, I don't have one in mine.
Mr. Hubert.
But you say you got to work about 12 o'clock?
Mr. Jackson.
Yes; around noon.
Mr. Hubert.
Had you been hanging around before going on duty, or come directly.
Mr. Jackson.
No; I come directly from home and went to work.
Mr. Hubert.
You didn't pass by the jail, or look around the jail?
Mr. Jackson.
No, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Are you sure it was 12 o'clock, and not 11 o'clock, that you went on duty, sir?
Mr. Jackson.
It was around noon somewhere. I don't know--I don't know just what time it was, because I usually come down around I o'clock, but sometimes I get down there a little earlier.
Mr. Hubert.
It was after half past 11 in the morning?
Mr. Jackson.
Yes, sir; I'm pretty sure it was after.
Mr. Hubert.
When did you first find out that Oswald had been shot?
Mr. Jackson.
Well, we had a boy that run the lot during the day through the week and had a radio down there, and I usually turned it on when I come in, and when I put it on that was what was on.
Mr. Hubert.
The news was that he had already been shot?
Mr. Jackson.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you know a man by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mr. Jackson.
No, sir; I didn't.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, have you ever been interviewed by any member of the President's Commission staff?
Mr. Jackson.
No, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Never been interviewed by me before?
Mr. Jackson.
No, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
All right, Mr. Jackson, I think that is all. Thank you very much.
