If Oswald Was The Assassin, Did He Plan His Escape From The TSBD Very Well?

Could have been Williams, calling the elevator up to the 6th floor, going back down to the 5th and leaving the door open?

Who is the black male Rowland sees in the snipers nest about 12:15 and who disappears when the motorcade is a few blocks away on Main (Main and Elvary)?

My guess would be Williams

Mine too. I can see no other candidate who specifically places themselves in that area at that time. If anyone else has a better suggestion I'd like to hear it. If it is Williams a few things follow:
Williams was untruthful in his next-day affidavit
In his various statements he downplays how long he spent on the 6th floor
He is in the snipers nest
He is on the same floor as a white male with a rifle
He disappears from Rowland's view when the motorcade is on Main Street
This last point ties in nicely with Norman and Jarman's late arrival on the fifth floor (after hearing the motorcade was on Main Street). I would go as far to say the only reason Williams went down to the 5th is because he heard Norman and Jarman down there. He doesn't go down to the 5th floor until just before the arrival of the motorcade on Houston, approximately !2:29.
I cannot imagine how Williams is not directly involved in the assassination.
None of this holds water if the black male Rowland spots in the snipers nest window isn't Williams.
Alan Ford:
What age was the dark-complected man seen at that window by Mr Rowland? "Fifty; possibly 55 or 60."
What age was Mr Williams? _________
What kind of shirt did Mr Rowland's man have on? "Had on a plaid shirt. I think it was red and green, very bright color, that is why I remember it."
What kind of shirt did Mr Williams have on? __________
Mr Rowland's man's hair? "bald or practically bald, very thin hair if he wasn't bald"
Mr Williams' hair? __________
Doesn't sound like Mr Williams to me. Sounds a lot more like Mr Eddie Piper...
If not Mr Piper, then it must have been a member of the assassination team.
Alan Ford:
Meanwhile, the white man seen at that window some 15 minutes later was described by Mr Ronald Fischer as having had on "an open-neck shirt"; and by Mr Robert Edwards "a sport shirt, it was light colored, it was yellow or white, something to that effect".
Which rules out Mr Oswald (as if we didn't already have plenty of things doing that!) Thumb1:
My money's still on this fellow-----------
Light-colored open neck shirt/sport shirt (~Fischer/Edwards~) under light brown jacket (~Baker~). Striking bald spot (~Euins~). And! Eminently confusable with Mr Oswald.
