Hugh Aynesworth was told by Earlene Roberts that he was the first reporter on the scene at 1026 North Beckley. And that the police had just left after searching the place. Here is what she said to Hugh: “He came in running like the dickens,” she said, and didn’t respond when she asked him his hurry. “He just ran in his room, got a short tan coat, and ran back out.”

(Page 50 and 51 of “Witness to History” by Hugh Aynesworth.)

What did she testify under oath before the WC Charles?

You can look it up if you really want to know.

Why bother with the WC, we could have just asked Hugh Aynesworth to solve the crimes.

Don’t need to....I already know...Do you? Maybe he was in a hurry because he wanted to catch the bus at the stop she saw him waiting after leaving the house. Or maybe he was waiting for a car to pick him up there.

For those who want to know what she said before the WC.

Joseph Ball: Did he run?

Earlene Roberts: He wasn't running, but he was walking pretty fast - he was all but running.

Hugh Aynesworth is a journalist. Just because Roberts’ was inconsistent doesn’t mean that she didn’t tell the truth to Aynesworth.

A fine line between running or “all but running.” The point is that he was moving faster than normal. And that addresses the question that the original post asked.

Aynesworth's comment is worthless (pun intended). For the reasons quoted above. Maybe he misheard, she testified under oath before the commission that he did not run. Wonder why rush and then wait outside?
