ZOLTAN HOFFMANN, 112 Melbourne Avenue, Silver Spring, Maryland, former owner of the Hoffmann Furniture Company, 2447 18th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C., advised as follows:
He stated that he sold his furniture company approximately five years ago and the new owners use the name Hoffmann Interiors, Incorporated, and are located at 7020 Westmoreland Avenue, Takoma Park, Maryland. He said the employment records for his former company had been destroyed.
HOFFMANN was furnished two photographs of BRYANT COFFELT. HOFFMANN identified the photographs. He said BRYANT COFFELT was employed by his firm as a salesman in the used furniture portion of his business. He was employed on a commission basis and worked for his firm from approximately 1963 through 1970.
HOFFMANN said COFFELT told him he was studying medicine and on occasion would leave his employment unannounced and return a few months later stating he was taking a medical course. HOFFMANN would always rehire him since COFFELT was a smooth talker and a good salesman.
HOFFMANN described COFFELT as follows:
---
Race: White Sex: Male Height: 6 feet Weight: 180 pounds Hair: Brown
---
HOFFMANN was unable to recall any additional information concerning COFFELT.
