Why did Capt. Fritz REFUSE to transfer LHO before Sunday morning?
In his WC testimony we see DA Henry Wade asked him to transfer LHO on Friday night.
Mr. BALL. Do you recall that on Friday, November 22, Wade asked you or did he or didn't District Attorney Wade ask you to transfer Oswald to the county jail for security?
Mr. FRITZ. That would be on the night of the 22d?
Mr. BALL. On the night of the 22d.
Mr. FRITZ. Yes, sir; he asked me if I would transfer him that night.
Mr. BALL. What did you tell him?
Mr. FRITZ. I told him we didn't want to transfer him yet. We wanted to talk to him some more. We talked a little bit. He didn't actually want him transferred. He just was more or less talking about whether or not we wanted to transfer him.
So they couldn’t talk to him once they transferred him? Why not? Also, Chief Curry asked him to transfer LHO on Saturday, November 23, 1963 at 4:00 p.m. and again he did NOT do it.
Mr. BALL. Had you been requested by Sheriff Decker to transfer him there before?
Mr. FRITZ. No, sir. I had talked to the chief about transferring him down there. The chief had called me on the 23d, on the 23d, I can't give you the exact minute, probably a little after noon, he had called me and asked me when we would be ready to transfer him and I told him we were still questioning him. We didn't want to transfer him yet. He said, "Can he be ready by about 4 o'clock? Can he be transferred by 4 o'clock?" I told him I didn't think we could.
Mr. BALL. That would be Saturday afternoon?
Mr. FRITZ. That would be the 23d, would be Saturday, yes, sir. Then he asked me could he be ready by 10 o'clock in the morning, so I could tell these people something definitely, and I felt sure we would be ready by then. However, we didn't, we ran overtime as you can see by this report, an hour and a half over, when they come over to transfer him.
Mr. BALL. Why did you say you would not be ready by 4 o'clock on Saturday?
Mr. FRITZ. We wanted to ask him some more questions, to get more information.
Mr. BALL. Did you consider transferring him at night?
Mr. FRITZ. At night?
Mr. BALL. Yes.
Mr. FRITZ. During the night on Saturday night, I had a call at my home from uniformed captain, Captain Frazier, I believe is his name, he called me out at home and told me they had had some threats and he had to transfer Oswald.
And I said, well, I don't know. I said there has been no security setup, and the chief having something to do with this transfer and you had better call him, because---so he told me he would.
Despite known death threats Fritz still wouldn’t move him until Sunday morning. Why? His excuse of wanting to get more information out of him is lame given his claim that he made NO notes or recordings of the interrogations. Why did they wait UNTIL an announced transfer on Sunday morning? (Leavelle would say they did NOT announce Ruby’s transfer time, little good that did LHO, huh?) You can decide this for yourself, but NO non-conspiratorial answer holds any weight.
