JD Tippit - Serious timing issues

[Eddie Haymaker]

Was the WR a cover up?

I think this question answer's itself

The sitting president of the US himself did not believe in the MBT.

The majority of Americans do not believe in it's lone gunman conclusion

The final HSCA's ruling was a probable conspiracy

I am not sure what my opinions or POV can really add to all that

---------------------------------------------------------------

Was the DPD involved?

IMO the evidence suggests that individuals within the DPD were involved

in this crime.

-The LHO murder
The cops know Ruby.They also know he is not a reporter.Nobody say's "hey jack,what are you doing here?" He loiters around the DPD waiting for his opportunity.Does he keep a low profile? No he answers questions.He has been arrested multiple times for carrying a firearm.He is known to police.personally.

-The rooming house
It is widely accepted by both sides of this debate that Mrs Roberts
Saw a police car pull up outside LHO's rooming house 1/2 an hour after JFK
was hit beep the horn.This evidence is quickly dismissed by the DPD who say they had to no cars in the area at that time.This is evidence of police knowledge and one of the single most overlooked and understated piece's of evidence in this case IMO.

-The Investigation
Well I think most people know the open and shut nature of this case
as described by the DPD and the DA.I don't need to go deeper into this.When you say "moral certainty" regarding his guilt on television I think your POV is clear.
The trial would have been interesting with everyone announcing his guilt before 24 hours had even elapsed. "He acted alone"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The fact that the HSCA confirm a probable conspiracy defies the DPD investigation and therefore asks serious questions about it's competency at best.Complicity at worst.

Good luck cherry picking

[Jerry Freeman]

Markham was on her way to catch a 1:12 Bus...

...or the 1:22 bus.

 

Mr. BALL. You know what time you usually get your bus, don't you?
Mrs. MARKHAM. 1:15.
Mr. BALL. So it was before 1:15?
Mrs. MARKHAM. Yes, it was.

It is entirely plausible that the 1:12 bus Markham usually took was late by three minutes.

It is completely implausible that the 1:22 bus usually arrived at the bus stop on Jefferson seven minutes too early.

Besides, even if Tippit was really killed at 1:15, Markham should have been at the bus stop and not one block away at 10th/Patton. This alone indicates that Tippit must have been shot several minutes prior to 1:15

Do you believe that Helen Markham was so unreliable she couldn't read a clock?   Do you think she could have kept her job at the cafe if she didn't arrive on time?....

She was on her way to catch the 1:12 bus because she had to be at work at 2:00 pm.....She left her apartment at 1:00 pm and saw JD Tippit shot to death at 1:06.....   

The liars have tried desperately to discredit her.... Why have you joined them Mr Hatmaker?....

Actually, she testified that she left at "a little after 1".

To get to 10th/Patton is only a one block walk. She IMO would have arrived there at around 1:06.

In other words, if the shooting happened at 1:15 Markham would not have seen it as she would have been at the bus stop on Jefferson.

Markham displayed her punctuality by catching a bus that took her to work at least a half hour before she was required to be at work...  Likewise she would have been at the bus stop several minutes prior to the scheduled arrival of the 1:12 bus. 

She confirmed this when she said the time was 1:06 when she saw JD Tippit shot to death.....
