Yarborough's Suspicion of the Warren Commission Investigators
"A couple of fellows [from the Warren Commission] came to see me. They
walked in like they were a couple of deputy sheriffs and I was a bank
robber. I didn't like their attitude. As a senator I felt insulted.
They went off and wrote up something and brought it back for me to
sign. But I refused. I threw it in a drawer and let it lay there for
weeks. And they had on there the last sentence which stated: 'This
is all I know about the assassination.' They wanted me to sign this
thing, then say this is all I know. Of course, I would never have
signed it. Finally, after some weeks, they began to bug me. 'You're
holding this up, you're holding this up' they said, demanding that I
sign the report. So I typed one up myself and put basically what I
told you about how the cars all stopped. I put in there, 'I don't
want to hurt anyone's feelings but for the protection of future
presidents, they should be trained to take off when a shot is fired.'
I sent that over. That's dated July 10, 1964, after the
assassination. To my surprise, when the volumes were finally printed
and came out, I was surprised at how many people down at the White
House didn't file their affidavits until after the date, after mine
the 10th of July, waiting to see what I was going to say before they
filed theirs. I began to lose confidence then in their investigation
and that's further eroded with time."
