Here is the film taken by Tom Alyea, a cameraman for WFAA-TV, showing them finding and retrieving the rifle. This was shown live by the station after they developed it and shortly after the assassination.

Did the "conspirators" plant evidence AND let a newsman film them at the same time? Why wold they allow this to happen if they were staging things? It makes no sense. And they recovered this rifle and then Fritz showed Oswald a Mauser?

All of this discovery was done BEFORE the workers in the building had been interviewed. If they later said that Oswald was with them and couldn't have shot JFK then all of this planting of evidence implicating Oswald would be exposed. This entire alleged plan collapses. Again, this makes no sense at all.


Steve, your post is so screwed up, that it's not worth trying to straighten out.....

What I mean is - what happened to the Carcano that was taken away from the TSBD.
We know that happens because there is photographic evidence of it.
If it went to the DPD why would Fritz show Oswald a Mauser and not the Carcano that, I assume, was taken to the DPD?

Well, according to Lt. Day, the Carcano was locked away in the evidence box before Mr Oswald's interrogation had started--and not extracted until ~7pm that evening.

How exactly would Caster be wholly innocent in this fantasy?  He confirms that he took his rifles home and they were never brought back to the TSBD.

Mr. BALL. What did you do with the guns after that?
Mr. CASTER. I put them back in the carton and carried them up to my office.
Mr. BALL. And what did you do with them after that?
Mr. CASTER. I left at the end of the working day, oh, around 4 o'clock and took the guns in the cartons and carried them and put them in my car and carried them home.
Mr. BALL. Did you ever have them back in the Texas School Book Depository Building thereafter?
Mr. CASTER. They have never been back to the Texas School Book Depository Building since then.
Mr. BALL. Where were those guns on November 22, 1963?
Mr. CASTER. The guns were in my home, 3338 Merrell Road.

Exactly---------------his Mauser had nothing to do with the assassination

So...Let me get this straight....The conspirators want to set Lee Up as the scape goat....and they have photos that show Lee holding a MANNLICHER CARCANO......  So they plant a MAUSER that has no connection to Lee Oswald.

Do I have this right?

As usual----------no, you don't

Perhaps your vision might improve if you extract your head....

Tom Alyea was right there with his camera when Lt Day picked up the Mannlicher Carcano  which was lying on the floor, on it's side, with the leather sling up.    The rifle was 15 feet 4 inches from the North wall. The film of Lt. Day picking up the rifle clearly show that the rifle was a MANNLICHER CARCANO.

The Alyea film was dropped out of the building by him and taken to the WFAA-TV studio where it was immediately developed. It was then shown live on WFAA-TV and narrated by Jay Watson and Bert Shipp.

If you watch the video you can hear Schipp narrate the film as it's shown LIVE on television. Below is Watson on the left and Shipp on the right, shown as the film began to play. All of this is in the video.

My mistake; wrong link. The film with their narration is here (go to the 3:28 mark):

Well Ok.... You tell me where I went wrong.   And start with any photo ( just one) that shows a 7.65 Mauser anywhere near the TSBD on the afternoon of 11/22/63 .
