Bussiere asked him, "Now tell me once more what day you first became concerned about being picked up in this case?" "The lfith or 17th of January," said Coolidge. "Or maybe the 141 when you asked for a sales slip predated to the 13th?" shot back Bussiere. "I asked for that predated gun out of the house on Jan. 13, 1964?" "No, I did not."
