I was just outlining how the lies Lovelady told about his movements in the immediate aftermath of the assassination evolved:
1) He stayed on the steps until he reentered the building.
2) He ran to where the limo stopped and stayed in that area for 5 minutes. [emphasis added by T.G.]
3) He went to the island after Gloria Calvery ran up to the steps and told him JFK had been shot, then he and Shelley down to the railroad yard, taking about 5 minutes to get back inside.
4] He didn't go back inside for 20 minutes.
Dear danny Boy o'meara,You really need to read Lovelady's two affidavits / reports again.
Here they are:
Lovelady’s first affidavit (to the Dallas Police Department) on 11/22/63:
I work at Texas School Book Depository at 411 Elm. On Friday November 22nd, 1963, I worked on the 6th floor along with Danny Arce, Jack Dougherty, Bill Shelley, Charles Givens. When the President came by Bill Shelly and I were standing on the steps in front of the building where I work. After he had passed by and was about 50 yards past us, I heard three shots. There was a slight pause after the first shot then the next two were right close together. I could not tell where the shots came from but sounded like they were across the street from us. However, that could have been caused by the echo.
After it was over we went back into the building and took some police officers up to search the building. Our lunch period is from 12 to 12:45PM. All of us had left the sixth floor to see the President.
. . . . . . .
Excerpt from Lovelady’s 11/22/63 FBI report later that day:
On November 22nd, 1963, Lovelady and his foreman, Bill Shelley, were standing on the front doorstep at 411 Elm Street at about 12:30 PM watching the presidential motorcade pass. At about this time he heard three shots. At first, he thought it was a firecracker or the backfire of a motorcycle. He could not tell from which direction the shots came.
He said immediately after hearing the shots he and Shelly started running towards the presidential car, but it sped away west on Elm Street under the triple underpass. He and Shelley then returned to the Texas School Book Depository building. During this time he saw no one run out of the building or saw any suspicious individuals.

Questions for danny Boy o'meara:What in the heck is "after it was over" supposed to mean? After
what was over?
Did Lovelady say that he / they actually ran down to where the limo stopped and stayed in that area for five minutes?
Really?
