| Summary | "Warren Commission (02 of 26): Hearings Vol. II (of 15)" is a historical account written in the mid-20th century, specifically documenting the investigations surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. This volume is part of a series of hearings conducted by the President's Commission, also known as the Warren Commission, which investigates the circumstances and events relating to Kennedy's assassination. The narrative primarily revolves around testimonies presented by various witnesses, providing insights into the events that transpired before, during, and after the assassination. The opening of the hearings features the testimony of James Herbert Martin, who discusses his interactions with Marina Oswald, the widow of Lee Harvey Oswald, among other topics. Initial discussions focus on how media portrayals have misrepresented her character, as well as Martin's reflections on Marina's financial situation and her responses to the assassination's fallout. The dialogue touches upon various newspaper articles and their inaccuracies concerning Marina's image and experiences, suggesting a complex depiction of her life in the wake of her husband's notoriety. This section sets the stage for the Commission's broader examination of the events leading to the assassination, the accused, and the government's handling of the investigation.
