oswald, i just find it funny he was spotted in the lunchroom a little before the assassination. and he spotted in the exaxt location he was spotted just roughly 90 seconds after the shooting. i find it very ironic that why would man that commited such a haneous crime would even stay in the building at all? how come oswald would stop at the second floor and go have a drink.
It is very debatable, to say the least, whether or not Oswald was seen at 12:15 by Carolyn Arnold. The FBI interviewed employees of the Depository. Those who ate their lunch that day in both the domino room on the first floor and the lunch room on the second floor said that Oswald was not in the lunch room/domino room. On November 26, 1963 when she gave her statement to the FBI, Carolyn Arnold wasn't certain that it was Oswald who she saw. Psychological studies on eyewitness accounts show that witnesses become less reliable over time and that witnesses will often change their accounts to bring them in accord with the accounts of others as if it were their own memories. Therefore, the accounts closest to the event (before a witness can compare their memories to others) are the most reliable. In the 1964 statement to the FBI, which she signed, Arnold made no mention of seeing Oswald at any point, much less fifteen minutes before the assassination. If she would have seen Oswald, she would have said so in this statement. I simply cannot believe that Carolyn Arnold would not mention seeing Oswald (IF she saw him) to the FBI when she gave her March 18, 1964 statement (which she signed). If you're Carolyn Arnold and you're giving a statement to FBI agents about your activities on the day of the assassination, aren't you going to mention seeing the accused assassin to these agents (if you really saw him eating his lunch fifteen minutes or so before the shooting)? The bottom line is, Oswald lied when he claimed that he was in the domino room eating his lunch...and Carolyn Arnold did not see Oswald in the second floor lunchroom at 12:15.
