Walt's Timeline  Jack's BS time line.....
==========
1:06 PM: LHO shoots Officer J.D. Tippit and continues fleeing.
1:12 PM: Police broadcast a description of the suspect in the Tippit murder.
1:30 PM: LHO enters the Texas Theater.
1:40 PM: After a struggle with police, LHO is captured.

Here's my Time line.....

1:04PM:  Mrs Roberts sees Lee standing on the sidewalk in front of the roominghouse.
1:06PM Mrs Markham sees Tippit shot by an assailant who had his hair cut in an entirely different fashion than Lee Oswald. 
1:08PM Several witnesses saw the killer walking away from the scene while removing ONE SHELL AT A TIME from the revolver.  ( thus the killer was NOT using a Smith & Wesson.)
1:10   TF Bowley arrives at the scene of the murder and sees the cop lying on the street.   Bowley uses Tippit's radio to contact the dispatcher.
1:12PM Lee disembarks from the bus and walks the short distance to the Texas Theater where he enters the theater at about 1;13....

Stop calling it my BS timeline you fool. In my original post I was citing the LNers timeline and testing its implications. I never claimed it was correct, I was attempting to debunk it. Comprende?

I just wanted you to modify the times relative to the events I described so we can all be on the same page. Instead you replaced them with your own 8 minute timeline, which you still haven't cited your source(s) for. The most important thing anyone can do here is to establish a timeline by forming a consensus re the time of events from the moment the 1st bullet struck JFK (12:33PM) to LHO's arrest in the theater (1:30PM?). Once we agree on that, then you can call BS all you like....without being obstinate, if possible.

Nevermind. I lost my appetite.

Umm, maybe she heard radio. The 1:06 is pretty precise. Not 1:05. Not 1:07.

So... if she was listening to the radio, how did she recall that:

“for some reason the announcer turned and looked at the clock”

Because Oswald acted alone?

I would NEVER endorse the very first entry....1:06 PM: LHO shoots officer JD Tippit ....       Lee DID NOT shoot Officer Tippit.....

You were NOT THERE...so you do not know who did or didn't shoot Officer Tippit.

Lee was seen by his landlady, Mrs Roberts, STANDING ON THE SIDEWALK in front of the roominghouse at 1:04 PM.....  Mrs Markham swore that she saw oficer Tippit shot at 1:06.....

Now all you have to do is show me how Lee could have traveled from the rooming house  to the murder scene that was over a mile away in less than two minutes.....

Here's my timeline: Oswald leaves rooming house shortly after 1.00pm
Mrs.Markham sees Oswald shoot officer Tippit at approx 1.09PM...(she doesn't know exact time) positively identified by Markham and 4 other witnesses.
Oswald flees the scene...spotted and identified by several witnesses
TF Bowley arrives at approx 1.10/1.11...assesses situation as best he could and then uses Officer Tippit radio to call in.

The big problem with this scenario appears to be the time it takes to get from the rooming house to the scene of the Tippit murder. Another problem is nobody involved in this episode seems to be clear on the timing. But the fact remains that Oswald was identified as the gunman. Some of the I'd's are a bit sketchy but others are much more believable.
