Jay Skaggs followed eyewitnesses and law enforcement officials into the railroad parking lot behind the stockade fence at the top of the grassy knoll. In his 2002 oral history, he said, "I wasn't up there too long.... What I was looking for, I guess, was to see... somebody down below must've pointed up there or said something about 'the shots came from up there.' I was looking for somebody with a gun, which, of course, would've been kind of dumb." - Stephen Fagin, Curator
