On November 22 and 23, 1963, the Paine garage was, as one would expect,
very thoroughly searched.............
As one would most certainly NOT expect, given
the centrality of curtain rods to the Oswald case, not a single report anywhere mentions anything about curtain rods in that garage. The idea that no one thought of checking to see whether curtain rods were there is obviously quite ludicrous.
If Mr Oswald had brought no curtain rods to the Depository the morning of the assassination, the following would have happened:
ALL curtain rods in the garage before the assassination would have still been in the garage and would have been immediately found and recorded as having been found in the garage. Ms Paine would have been put on the record immediately as confirming that no curtain rods were missing. The world would have been told all about this crucial development in the Oswald-Did-It case.Yet somehow none of this happened. Instead we get
complete radio silence about curtain rods in the garage until
March '64, when two curtain rods are extracted from the Paine garage----------EIGHT DAYS AFTER two curtain rods were submitted to the Crime Scene Search Section for testing for Mr Oswald's prints.
Go figure!
