AFTER RETURNING TO FLORIDA, MURGADO MET WITH BOBBY AGAIN AT HIS PAL BEACH HOUSE, WHERE HE REPORTED ON HIS SURVEILLANCE TARGETS, INCLUDING THE MYSTERIOUS OSWALD. HE SHOWED NEWSPAPER PHOTOS TAKEN OF OSWALD HANDING OUT HIS PRO-CASTRO PAMPHLETS. HE TOLD THE ATTORNEY GENERAL THAT AS FAR AS HE COULD DETERMINE OSWALD WAS TIED TO THE FBI. BOBBY HAD NEVER HEARD OF OSWALD, ACCORDING TO MURGADO, BUT HE DID NOT SEEM CONCERNED ABOUT HIM BECAUSE OF HIS APPARENT GOVERNMENT ROLE AND THE CONVERSATION QUICKLY MOVED ON TO OTHER MATTERS. MURGADO WOULD NOT THINK SERIOUSLY ABOUT OSWALD UNTIL NOVEMBER 22.

 

 ASSASSINATION RESEARCHERS HAVE LONG SPECULATED ABOUT WHETHER BOBBY KENNEDY WAS ALREADY FAMILIAR WITH THE NAME OSWALD WHEN IT SUDDENLY EXPLODED ON THE AMERICAN STAGE ON THE AFTERNOON OF NOVEMBER 22. WAS THIS THE MAN TO WHOM BOBBY WAS REFERRING WHEN HE TOLD THE ANTI-CASTRO LEADER HARRY RUIZ WILLIAMS THAT AFTERNOON, "ONE OF YOUR GUYS DID IT?" DID RFK IMMEDIATELY ASSOCIATE OSWALD WITH THE COVERT WAR AGAINST CASTRO BECAUSE OF MURGADO'S INTELLIGENCE REPORT?
