Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Gary Craig]

The witness who got the best look at Tippit's killer and whose description of the murderer doesn't

match a photo taken of LHO while in DPD custody on 11/22/63.

Testimony Of Domingo Benavides

Mr. BELIN - Where were you when your vehicle stopped?
Mr. BENAVIDES - About 15 foot, just directly across the street and maybe a car length away from the police car.

~snip~

Mr. Belin: Let me ask you now, I would like you to relate again the action of the man with the gun as you saw him now.

Mr. Benavides: As I saw him, I really--I mean really got a good view of the man after the bullets were fired he had just turned. He was just turning away........

~snip~

Mr. BENAVIDES - I remember the back of his head seemed like his hairline was sort of--looked like his hairline sort of went square instead of tapered off. and he looked like he needed a haircut for about 2 weeks, but his hair didn't taper off, it kind of went down and squared off and made his head look fiat in back.

Oswald walks into the rooming house around 1 pm and does NOT have anything in his hands, i.e. where were the "curtain rods" that were so important that he had to make a special trip out to Irving the night before?

If all he was doing was returning to the rooming house because work was done for the day, why did Oswald leave the curtain rods at work?

Yep, those important curtain rods he just had to get and couldn't wait for the weekend. Lots of questions like this come to mind. E.g., why weren't they still in that bag? The one that had his prints on it, that was found near the nest? Where did they go? Wouldn't he have stored that bag in the domino room? Where the workers kept things? His other jacket was left there. And the bag itself? Nobody makes a bag like that for some flimsy rods. The entire "curtain rods" story is preposterous. I think even he realized it when he reportedly denied taking any with him. The bag had his lunch (although Frazier said he told him he wasn't bringing one with him that morning).

It's pretty simple: Had Ruby not killed him he would have had to face all of these questions and more and his answers would have revealed his guilt. Although I imagine we'd have the MK-Ultra defense like some do for Sirhan. He was hypno-programmed sort of response.

Is this supposed to prove that he killed somebody?
