"Did you shoot the President?" "Uh, No, nobody has told me that, nobody has charged me with that."

In 1963 I was thirteen and the assassination made a huge impression on me. My mother got me a LP called A Time To Keep 1963 which is a basically a compilation of various audio recorded during special happenings during the year 1963.

I still have it and I took it out to play today because the Oswald quote as you posted it, wasn't as I remembered hearing it. The following are Oswald's words in his own voice as heard on the RCA record.

Oswald-"I didn't shoot anybody sir. I haven't been told what I'm here for"

Reporter (possibly a different one)- "Do you have a lawyer?"

Oswald- "No sir, I don't
