No More Silence: An Oral History of the Assassination of

Larry A. Sneed copyright 1998
Paul Bentley:
.....Shortly after we left the theater I took Oswald's wallet out of his left rear pocket which contained two or three
There were definitely two names, and maybe a third. When asked his real identity, his response was, "You find out the best you can!" We gave the dispatcher the names and were advised that this was a suspect in the assassination of President Kennedy and for us to bring him directly to Captain Will Fritz's office. That was the first that we knew that he was a suspect in the assassination. Oswald kept his head bowed and did not say anything on the way back. When we were told that he was a suspect in the assassination of the President, I don't remember if I asked him or if it was Jerry Hill if he actually had shot the if he actually had shot the President, and he just shook his head "no" and didn't say anymore......

..... Wes: Was that crowd belligerent in any way towa
rd Oswald?
Paul: Not there, as we proceeded down Zangs Str
eet and got to I think it was Zangs
and Bishop...if I'm not mistaken, Zangs and Claridon
we heard several people rolling their windows
down and saying, "Kill that S.O.B. Kill that S.O.B
." And at this particular time, as we were going i
n,
we were not aware that we had arrested the person w
ho had assassinated President Kennedy and
wounded Governor Connally. We knew that we had arre
sted the person that had shot officer Tippit, but
we radioed the dispatcher...advised the dispatcher th
at we had a suspect in the shooting of Officer
Tippet. The dispatcher asked us for the name of the
suspect, and I had taken his wallet out of his lef
t
rear pocket and had taken several cards out of his
wallet and it contained several different names.
Hidell, Oswald, and I think a couple other alias an
d I gave this all to the dispatcher.
Wes: Let's stop right there for a second.
Bob: Let's detail that because in some of the books they claim these things were
planted on him and so forth.

Report to Chief J. E. Curry, by P. L. Bentley. Report concerning the arrest of Lee Harvey Oswald, (Original), 12/03/63. 00000636 2 pages 02 07 004 0636-001.gif and:

Wes: (taking photograph from Paul and putting it
down) OK, let's put this down for
the time being. That's a good idea, Bob. Go ahead
and explain. Now, how many identifications did
you see? Do you recall offhand?
Paul: I think I saw three, and if I'm not mista
ken it was Hidell...Alex Hidell, Oswald,
and one other...I don't recall what it was off hand r
ight now. I have all that all written down, but I'm
not sure what it was. I took out of his wallet quit
e a bit of "Freedom for Cuba" cards, various differ
ent
things that I took out of his wallet and went looki
ng for other alias that we might identify him with.
And when I advised...I think it was Sergeant Hill who
was talking to the dispatcher and we gave him
the names that we had gotten out of his wallet. The
dispatcher advised us then that we were to bring
this suspect directly to Captain Fritz's office tha
t he was a prime suspect in the assassination of
President Kennedy and the wounding of Governor Conn
ally.
Wes: That's the first you knew of it?
Paul: (0:19:54) That's the first, and I turned to
him and I said, "Did you shoot President
Kennedy?" And he said, "You find out for yourself."

.......

......Wes: Those were his exact words? Paul: "You find out for yourself," and then lat
er on, as we were going on, Walker
asked him a question, and he said, "I didn't shoot
anybody."
Wes: He said that to whom?
Paul: He said that to Walker...no, the other offi
cer. I'm sorry, I mean Lyons, K.K.
Lyons was sitting on his right, and I was on his le
ft, and he said, "I didn't shoot anybody."
Wes: Is there any way and Bob, help me with thi
s, if you remember anything specific
from one of the books, is there any way that any on
e could have slipped any identification into his
wallet before between the time you had it and the t
ime you brought it to the police bureau?
Paul: His wallet was never out of his pocket un
til I took it out of his pocket. I turned
his wallet over to Lieutenant Baker when we brought
him to Captain Fritz. His wallet was never out of
my sight or my possession until I turned it over to
Lieutenant Baker.
Wes: So there's no way any one could have tampe
red with the wallet?
Paul: No way. Nobody did tamper with his walle
t when I had it in my possession, and
then it was turned over to Lieutenant Baker and of
course, I'm sure nobody did tamper with it when it
was turned over to Lieutenant Baker.
Bob: Well, obviously, if you saw those identifi
cations immediately that others said
were...
Paul: Could you turn that off for just a second
?
<break in tape>
Bob: OK, now you've got some documents that you
are going to show.
Wes: Yeah, we went off camera to give you time to
get these photographs. These are
documents?
Paul: These are photographs or copies of the it
ems that were taken out of Lee Harvey
Oswald's wallet. (holding up small photograph).......

Wes: OK. So, there we are talking Lee H. Oswald
?
Paul: Here we have a Selective Service notice of
classification, and it has Lee Harvey
Oswald's picture on it...but it has the name of Alex
James Hidell, along with the Certificate of Service
stating, "This is to certify Alex James Hidell, Uni
ted States Marine Core," but it has Lee Harvey
Oswald's picture at the bottom. That's one of the a
liases he was using.
Wes: But he's listed here...Can you read the Alex
James Hidell?
Bob: Yeah.
Paul: Alex James Hidell.
Wes: O.K. go ahead.
Paul: (holding up copy of card) This is just a c
opy, again, of a notice of classification
of Lee Harvey Oswald.
Wes: (taking copy) Selective Service System class
ification card. .....

Buried in Dallas D.A. Wade's office safe for how many years???
