Over a period of 6 days. the chief counsel interviewed most of the people who had important previous contact with Medvid. During those interviews the witnesses who had come into contact with Medvid on his first time ashore were shown the pictures taken by the Navy photographers during Medvids second trip ashore. Those witnesses who had come into contact with Medvid during his second time ashore were shown a picture of Medvid as taken by Border Patrol agents the first time he was ashore. Nineteen of the 22 persons interviewed positively identified Medvid as being the person who was portrayed in the pictures. The witnesses were also asked to estimate the height and weight of Miroslay Medvid. and the estimates ranged from 58" to 6 and from 160 lbs. to 180 lbs. That range of height and weight estimates fits well with the actual height and weight of Medvid as recorded by the Border Patrol: 510". 174 lbs. Mr. President. we do know a great deal more about the case now than we did in November. particularly regarding the possibility of there being "two Medvids." We will know even more after our hearing this Friday.
