Well, you're not wrong exactly, but the quiz question asked who is he meeting, when & where & you've only said 'where' !

I'm looking for a name & an exact date.

In December (3 ??) 1970, Elvis Presley visited the offices of Los Angeles police chief Edward Davis. Stressing the importance of keeping this visit confidential, Elvis presented Davis's department with a check for $7,000 and gave Davis a Colt 45.
