Rolling Readers & Murdered Leaders

[Rob Caprio]

Caprio,

Had there really been a sniper's nest at that window at 12:30, what kind of evidence of it would you reasonably expect to exist?

A well-exposed 35mm color film taken from that part of the sixth floor at the time, accompanied by notarized statements from the photographer and his or her helpers?

Or ... gasp ... boxes arranged in that configuration with ... gasp ... the sniper's fingerprints on them?

Graves -- learn the evidence. The boxes were NOT in the shape or form that was claimed by the WC when the TSBD was entered by the police. Boxes were moved after the shooting.

Stop being a smart aleck and learn the evidence.

[Rob Caprio]

Name the expert and provide a link to that.

Already did countless times, but you LNers whined and had it removed. By the way, when do you cite for any of your claims?

[Rob Caprio]

Poor Oswald was certainly an unlucky guy.  Time and again the evidence points back to him due random bad luck.  Let's see he is the only TSBD employee to leave prints on the boxes.  Others worked there but Oswald's are the only employee prints they find.  What are the odds?  And his prints are on the bag and rifle.  More bad luck.  And he has no credible alibi like almost every other person who worked there.  And he flees the scene.  Gets a pistol.  Happens to cross paths with the murder of a police officer less than an hour later (the only DPD officer killed within a several year period).  He has the same two brands of ammo as Tippit's killer.  He apparently looked just like the real killer.  So much bad luck.

You're wrong as usual as NO evidence points to LHO as you falsely claim. That's why this is still be discussed 55 years later. We have no way of knowing if his prints were on anything since the person working with the prints said that he had never seen LHO's hands to know what his prints looked like.

By the way, what paper bag?

Caprio,

When, for example, considering whether or not to request extradition from another jurisdiction, do police departments have to see a suspect's hands if his or her fingerprints are already on file and available to them?

Great.  Then you have proved my point.  And to take this to the logical extreme, if the bag had contained "forensic evidence of ever holding the TSBD Carcano" (whatever that might be) you would claim that was planted as well.  And on and on and on down the yellow brick road.  Any evidence of Oswald's guilt is dismissed as fake.  So there is no evidence of Oswald's guilt.  Catch 22 of CTer logic.

"if the bag had contained"

You can "what if" all you want, the WC certainly did, but it won't change these facts.

1) The crime scene insitu photos don't show a home made gun bag in the alleged sniper's nest.

2) The bag in the archives contains zero forensic evidence of the TSBD Carcano ever being in it.

3) The 2 witnesses who saw LHO that morning both described a 27 inch bag. Too small to hold the TSBD Carcano.

Utterly irrelevant speculation since the bag did not contain any kind of forensic evidence to link it to any Carcano.

And on and on and on down the yellow brick road.  Any evidence of Oswald's guilt is dismissed as fake.

There's the pot calling the kettle black! There is no evidence whatsoever that a Carcano was ever concealed or carried in that bag. There isn't even evidence that it is the bag Oswald carried, but despite those facts you will continue to claim that the bag somehow is evidence of Oswald's guilt. Even worse, even the slightest suggestion that evidence was possibly tampered with is considered proof by you that Oswald was guilty.

You considering Oswald to be guilty isn't based on the actual evidence. It's based on pure blind faith regardless of what the evidence really shows. It's truly pathetic.

Weidmann,

If the Carcano had been carried in that bag, what kind of evidence indicating same would you reasonably expect to find?
