The Walker Case

[Charles Collins]

And it is reasonable to believe that Tomlinson could have been mistaken about when he actually was shown the bullet, when he was interviewed by Marcus in 1966.

No, it's not reasonable to believe that because Tomlinson also told Marcus that he was shown the bullet once and that was by Shanklin in November 1963.

In both his WC deposition and in his interview with Marcus, Tomlinson is consistently talking about one meeting not two!

That’s only your opinion.

It is a fact that Tomlinson told Marcus that he was shown a bullet once by Shanklin in November 1963. He also told the WC that he had been interviewed by the FBI once.


Are you claiming there were in fact two meetings?

Or are you saying that there was only one (with Odum) and the one with Shanklin didn't really happen?

It appears to me that there were two meetings. One shortly after the assassination. And the other in June 1964.

That's only your opinion, based on absolutely nothing at all.

In your theory, Odum and Tomlinson must both have forgotten the meeting completely. Very unlikely....

The irony!

No, Tomlinson didn’t forget the meeting. He told Marcus about it on the telephone in a late night interview. I think that it is reasonable that he got the date wrong. That is all. And CE2011 is documentation from the FBI that Odum did interview Tomlinson on June 12, 1964. So, you idea that my opinion is based on nothing at all is ridiculous.

What is ridiculous is to use the document that is being challenged as "evidence".

No, he told Marcus about the meeting with Shanklin. He does not mention Odum.

No, that's not a reasonable conclusion, because Tomlinson specifically mentions Shanklin and he did not have a meeting with Shanklin in June 1964.

And there is the "FBI said so" argument again. What is ridiculous is to use the document that is being challenged as "evidence" .
