The Umbrella Man At The House Select Committee Questioning Interview 1978

Thanks for posting this, Duncan. How long until Royell Storing and Jake Maxwell chime in about this being an impostor, or that he fired darts from his umbrella, etc?

[Royell Storing]

   Witt actually testified in 1978. Somehow, he evaded the FBI for almost 15 yrs. Even though he worked only blocks away from Dealey Plaza and actually claims to have walked to-and-from Dealey Plaza on 11/22/63. Witt's HSCA Testimony is in stark contrast to the JFK Assassination images showing Umbrella Man on Elm St. Either Witt is lying or the JFK Assassination images showing Umbrella Man are bogus. Both can Not be true.

Your insistence on some binary "lying" or "bogus" answer speaks volumes about your amateur image anomaly spotting. Go ahead and indulge us on the "stark contrasts" between the images and Witt's testimony. By the way, dozens of assassination witnesses, including people watching the motorcade in Dealey Plaza, went unidentified for decades. There's absolutely nothing out of the ordinary about that.

    Regarding the unidentified eyewitnesses inside Dealey Plaza, are you referring to Gordon Arnold?
    With respect to your "binary" issue, Witt testified that he was moving down the knoll, directly toward Elm St, while trying to open his umbrella when the JFK Limo approached/passed by him. This is in direct conflict with ALL of the JFK Assassination Images showing the JFK Limo approaching the Umbrella Man standing stock still near the Stemmons Sign. Either Witt is correct and the Images are Bogus, or the Images are good and Witt is a liar. And during this same HSCA testimony, Witt positively ID'd himself as the guy sitting on the Elm St curb next to The Cuban. I bring this up in order to physically position Witt moving directly toward Elm St. Nobody is seen moving down the Knoll in this specific area.

For those following this thread who don't know who Gordon Arnold is.

For those following this thread who don't know who Gordon Arnold is.

  Gordon Arnold also did a 6/6/89 Sixth Floor Q/A with Canover Hunt. In that interview he said he parked behind the railroad tower. He ended up standing on a dirt mound about 3 feet from the picket fence He also said that the cop kicking him around was wearing yellow shooter's glasses. It's a very detailed Q/A addressing issues not covered in, "The Men Who Killed Kennedy" (1988).

Dear Sonderführer Storing,

How many years after that tragic day in Dallas did Witt testify?

Fifteen?
