Oswald's Light-Colored Jacket

[Ray Mitcham]

Ray, have you ever had it explained to you before? I believe that you have. In fact, I'm sure that you have.

If it was you who explained,  you were wrong then as well.

She never knew any of them personally.

She was never asked that question

Had not even seen any of them before that day.

She was never asked that question either.

However, she did pick Oswald out of the line up as the man who she saw murder Officer Tippet.

Only after being prompted by a leading question. ie. "Was there a number two man in there?"

You've never been able to grasp that? Or has old age caught up to you and your memory is shot?

New study confirms adage that with age comes wisdom


Summary:
Older adults are better at interpreting the correct slope of a hill than young adults, which researchers believe is because of greater life experience.

With age comes wisdom, at least when it comes to knowing that things aren't always as they appear.

A new study led by Professor of Psychology Frank Durgin, which appears in the journal I-Perception, finds that older adults are better at interpreting the correct slope of a hill than young adults, which he believes is because of greater life experience. 🖕

There were four men in the line up.

Ball"Did you recognise anybody in the line up?
Markham"No sir"
Ball" ..did you recognize anybody from their face?
Mrs. MARKHAM. "From their face, no."
Ball  "Did you identify anybody in these four people?
Mrs. MARKHAM. "I didn't know nobody". [sic]
Ball I know you didn't know anybody, but did anybody in that lineup look like anybody you had seen before?
Mrs. MARKHAM. "No. I had never seen none of them, none of these men."


How much plainer does it have to be for you to understand?

She never knew any of them personally. Had not even seen any of them before that day.

Let's see.....did Ball ask her if she knew any of them personally or if she had seen any of them before that day?

No, that's right, he asked her if she recognized anyone in the lineup.

No, that's right, he asked her if she recognized anyone in the lineup.

So all of a sudden Markham is clear-minded & lucid. How convenient for you. Explain Ball's obvious frustration with the way The Divine Miss M was responding to the questions.

I didn't say she was clear-minded & lucid.  I said that she said she didn't recognize anyone in the lineup.

Explain Ball's obvious frustration with the way The Divine Miss M was responding to the questions.

Because she wasn't giving him the answer he wanted.
