The recorded record states that he asked for legal representation.
He was meeting with Castro’s agents settling on his payment for killing Kennedy.

Who was out of town in Connecticut that weekend.
It is amazing that all other transcripts of Oswald’s interrogations are missing.
Seems to me that CIA was largely pro Castro in those days.
Has anybody ever found Oswald’s financial records? I didn’t think so.
Marina’s had control of his tax returns and I think made some available to the public. He was only 24 when he died. Yes, I think they have a good trail of his employment as well in New Orleans and the Dallas Fort Worth area.
Ain’t paying money to kooks.
Prove it.
Whether one wants to accept it or not, Marina says he did try it and Oswald's friend DeMohrenschildt seemed to indicate something strange about Oswald per the attempted shooting earlier in 1963 of retired General Edwin Walker.
At the same time, DeMohrenschildt (who knew Jackie's family too) committed suicide of course years later in the '70s and Walker didn't necessarily buy the official Warren Report himself, interesting character, Walker. Helped enforce desegregation in Arkansas in the '50s, once retired, Walker led protests at Ole Miss against James Meredith becoming a student there.
Still, nothing really conclusive and I just don't have the conspiracy-bend anymore. The theories that exist are all so different, mob, Hoffa, Mafia, Cuban Exiles, Cubans, Castro, and of course, those who blame our own Federal Government.
Also, it’s been posted here before, JFK should have been tighter on security, they cancelled a trip to Chicago that year as well. I know there’s a lot to all of this.
I’ve posted the pic before, here’s a link: http://archive2.jfklibrary.org/JFKWHP/1963/Month%2005/Day%2018/JFKWHP-1963-05-18-B/JFKWHP-ST-278-3-63.jpg
You could have almost taken out JFK in Nashville with a knife, he’s so wide-open. I’ve researched this a bit, Ike and Truman probably rode in motorcades, JFK sometimes had tight security, rode in a covered limousine and would stand up out of a hole (like sun-roof) in the roof of the car. Really should have had more caution.
One of the things that disillusioned him was when he went to the Soviet Union, he thought he'd get some cushy postion.
Instead, he was given some boring job in the middle of nowhere.
When he returned to the States, he then turned to Cuba as his Marxist "paradise".
He thought the Soviets weren't doing Marxism "correctly", but somehow Castro was.
He wasn't paid much, EVER.
He and Marina lived in a dump.
All he had to his name when he died was some paltry amount of money and his guns.
He left some $ for his family, in addition to his wedding ring.
Marina left him, and he had nothing left to lose, especially after Cuba refused his passport request.
If he was ever "paid off" by conspirators, he never showed evidence of it.
I read the book "Top Down" by Jim Lehrer where it discusses the story behind why they didn't have the bulletproof bubble top on JFKs limo.
The secret service would NEVER let a POTUS ride around in the open like that today.
Even if the POTUS requested it, I'd wager they'd over-rule him.
For later
His family had left him,
*************************
He was living in Oak Cliff with his wife and baby.
Always lots of commies hanging out in Mexico City.
Oswald was told he was "hot" and had to drop out of sight for a little while before Dealey Plaza, and was sent to Mexico City. One of the so-called Oswald lookalikes was seen in proximity to Oswald, because he was shadowing him, in order to become familiar with him, to be able to recognize him immediately and from a distance. That lookalike's photos showed up in the Warren report, and were taken (like some of Oswald) as he left the Soviet embassy; he can be seen checking his wallet and other effects after they were returned to him.
On November 22, 1963, the "lookalike" shot JFK from the County Records Building, and waited for a short time to shoot Oswald, who was standing in the window as he'd been told to do, having shot and missed (again, as he'd been told to do). Thanks to the acoustics of the Plaza, the shots from Oswald's gun didn't sound like they had come from his direction; the police ran up the Grassy Knoll and found no one and nothing, smelled nothing, and didn't spot Oswald and open fire as expected. Once they'd opened fire, the real assassin was to shoot Oswald fatally, leaving the mourning nation with a horrendous crime and dead perp, all tied up in a bow. Instead, the assassin had to pack up and limp his way out of the crime scene, his disassembled rifle taped to his leg and concealed under his pants. *
That probably explains his reptile dysfunction.
Does it strike no one odd that the interrogation was not filmed?
Also, I have always been a bit hazy on how Oswald was identified as the perpetrator in the first place.
Or why, for instance, he left the Book Depository at all.
Or how the rifle was first identified by several police investigators as a "7.65 Mauser" (from clear barrel markings on the weapon)
I have read the book referenced by Sunk, and the proposition that the shots were fired from the Country Records Building makes good sense.
