Carr participated in the investigation of the Kennedy assassination by heading a state probe and cooperated with the [[Warren Commission]], which was appointed by President Johnson to determine the circumstances leading to Kennedy's death. Carr said that the combined state-federal probe was a success and that both teams worked well together. Years later, at the dedication of the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin, Carr recalled that the investigation into the Kennedy assassination was thorough and professional: "It makes me sad that it [the assassination] happened, but it doesn't make me sad to share with the interested people of Texas about what this investigation revealed and how thorough it was and how nonpolitical it was."<ref>Carr's overall support for the Warren Commission's conclusions appears, among other sources, in this analysis.<ref>[[Monte L.
