How do you account for the moving white object (Oswald's white t-shirt?) in the window in the digitally enhanced clip from the Robert Hughes film -- which clip is viewable in "The Lost Bullet" video?

Do you think Oswald was squirming all over the place while sitting on his "sit box" two seconds before he fired his first, missing-everything, shot?

First please tell us exactly where in the window you believe the “moving white object to be located. Here is a screenshot from the digitally enhanced Hughes film clip from “The Lost Bullet”.

Why don't you watch "The Lost Bullet" and see for yourself?

I did, where do you think I got the screenshot? Are you going to tell us exactly where in the window you believe the moving white object to be located?

You can't tell?

Do you think it's just an "artifact"?

I just want to know where you believe the moving white object is located. If you are not going to answer this simple question, I cannot help you.

So if it could be an inadvertent  squeezing trigger as the shooter STARTS to lean over then perhaps the Z143-45 movement of SS agent Hickey may indicate it was at that point which a bullet was fired.

So the angle of the rifle is not dependent on the Z frame point in time because the angle of the rifle as the shooter is holding it while he is in transition to placing it on the boxes could have been much less acute than would be if he had aimed a shot at Z143.

Therefore that angle was perhaps a lot less acute , and thus the bullet could have ricocheted off the asphalt and was the “something” that Virgie Rachley saw striking the pavement.

The bullet must still be somewhere in Dealey Plaza.

Going with Murphys Law that if an object is dropped it will roll into the most inaccessible part of the room and adapting that to a bullet fired at 2000 ft/sec striking at  a slight angle to the asphalt pavement  and the “room” being Dealey Plaza area, that the most inaccessible area would be drain/sewer pipes.

  Murphy's Law = "anything that can go wrong, will go wrong". Not sure how this "Law" applies to dropping an object inside a room.
