My life has been blessed with...

There he is! There he is!

I see him!

Ladies and gentlemen,|you've been invited here...

...for the announcement of the inquiry|into the death of George Hammond.

A complete transcript of the|investigation is in preparation.

This committee has spent|six months of investigation...

...followed by 11 weeks of hearings.

After careful deliberation...

...it has concluded that George Hammond|was assassinated by Joseph Frady.

An overwhelming body of evidence...

...has revealed that Frady was obsessed|with the Carroll assassination.

And in his confused and distorted mind...

...seems to have imagined that Hammond|was responsible for the senator's death.

He was equally convinced|that Hammond was plotting to kill him.

It is for those reasons|that Frady assassinated him.

Although I'm certain|that it will do nothing...

...to discourage the conspiracy pedlars...

...there is no evidence of a conspiracy...

...in the assassination|of George Hammond.

Those are our findings.

The evidence will be available|to you as soon as possible. Thank you.

This is an announcement, gentlemen.

There will be no questions.
