Oswald's Light-Colored Jacket

[Bill Brown]

....and manipulate the sentence and appear to change it's meaning...He said...
They knew what they were doing and they were trying to railroad him and he wanted his lawyer.

You have no idea whether I'm manipulating the sentence or not.

Maybe the person responsible for the transcription accidentally manipulated the sentence by placing a period where a comma should be.

Regardless, Whaley is not saying that the police were railroading Oswald.

Why do you refuse to make sense of the fact people were impersonating SS agents at the Jefferson Branch Library?

As soon as you prove that Secret Service agents were being impersonated at the library, then I'll try my best to make sense of it.  Fair enough?

Now, why is Weidmann running?

[John Mytton]

You quote something that doesn't  make a difference?

You're not following, Westbrook was part of the "we", it was a joint effort.
Let's put this another way, someone tells me that there was a jacket under a car then I look and "find" the jacket. What's the problem?

[John Mytton]

OK, Westbrook didn't actually find it.

Who did find it?

Mr. BALL. I show you Commission Exhibit 162, do you recognize that?
Mr. WESTBROOK. That is exactly the jacket we found.

Westbrook recovered the jacket that they found.

Why do you feel it's so important to pinpoint who saw the jacket first?

I'd like to know who actually"found" the jacket, because I don't believe that that person found it UNDER the Oldsmobile.....   The jacket shows no sign of being on the dirty parking lot .....and I suspect the cop "found" it on the seat of that Oldsmobile....  He spotted it on the seat and imagined the fleeing killer had tossed it into the car as he ran by....

Westbrook testified that the person who found it could have been an officer. If he was right, that would make that officer the first person in the chain of custody.

But to me far more interesting is the officer that Westbrook said he gave the jacket to when he himself left the carpark to go to the next location. This is the crucial missing link.

Who was the officer Westbrook gave the jacket to and how and when did the jacket get to the police station?

While still at the carpark DPD radio and at least two officers were talking about a white jacket. Once the jacket gets to the police station it suddenly is gray and it is initialed by officers that were not involved in the chain of custody at all...

And then you wonder why we want to know who "we" is..... Go figure

[Martin Weidmann]

You used to be good at this ? like five years ago.

Now you're flat on your face again.

Is this a first from Nut Camp: transcript manipulated?

Yes indeed. Brown is slipping... must be getting old!

Earlier I said that, if Oswald had killed Kennedy, it would IMO have made far more sense from him to try to leave town as quickly as possible, by for instance, taking a long distance bus. On the other hand, it would IMO have made no sense at all for him to go home, change his clothes and take a walk trough Oak Cliff...

Silly old Brown then wanted to know if Oswald being at the Texas Theater made sense and the obvious answer is of course that, if he had killed Kennedy, it would not have made sense for him to hang around town and go an see a movie. But any sane person could have figured that out, just Brown couldn't.

Translation:  I can't make any sense whatsoever of Oswald being inside the theater in Oak Cliff, whether he was innocent or guilty.
