Re: Interview with Jack Beers
Photographer - Dallas Morning News
Sir:
Mr. Beers was interviewed at approximately 3:00 p.M. on
December 4, 1963. He had taken the position on the railing
to the left of the 2 mounted gameras. Mr. Beers first
picture shows Ruby as he lunged towards Oswald and fired
the shot. He immediately took 7 other pictures in quick
succession that recounts most of the activity following the
shooting. These pictures will also enable us to establish
the positions of many detectives as the prisoner was being
brought from the jail office.
Mr. Beers is woll acqusinted with Jack Ruby but does not
recall seeing him in the crowd prior to the shooting.
We are in possession of all of Beer's photographs.
Respectfully submitted,
P. J. MCCaghren
