The Brown Paper Bag

[Tom Graves]

Your question assumes up front that Oswald killed Tippit, ran from the scene and dumped his jacket (which somehow had turned white) and then was arrested without a jacket. All this rests on the testimony of Earlene Roberts who claimed Oswald left zipping up a jacket, whilst at the same time saying she wasn't paying much attention as she was trying to get the TV working. Ever considered the possibility that Oswald did not leave the rooming house wearing a jacket and went straight to the Texas Theater?

Do you think all of the evidence against Oswald in the Tippit Case was fabricated and planted, too?

Or was some of it just more "weird coincidence"?

[Michael Capasse]

You mean James Cadigan, the same James Cadigan that examined Oswald's rifle bag at the FBI Laboratory in WASHINGTON, you know on the other side of the Country!

Did the bag go to Washington Friday night?
  I don't think it did

Jim Marrs:
"When the Dallas evidence was shipped to the FBI laboratory early on November 23, there was no mention of the paper bag.
Instead, Dallas FBI agent-in-charge J. Gordon Shanklin mentioned the blanket, which he suggested was used to carry the
rifle into the Depository."

Thanks David, in researching that photo, I was just on your site earlier today and saw that you discovered that little gem and was going to post it here to further educate Capasse.
Anyway, to anyone who's reading this, CT's and LNers alike and want to investigate, research and learn some interesting JFKA facts go and enjoy DVP's excellent site!!

A sane person would have let it go, but not Johnny....

He thinks he's being nasty, but all he really is, is an easily triggered fool with a delusion of grandeur complex.

Keep responding, Johnny. I can do with a good laugh

I see you are running away as fast as you can from the white/grey jacket questions. One can only wonder why, but it's really no surprise.

What evidence in de Tippit case are you talking about?

Jim Marrs??

You've got to be joking?

Mr. EISENBERG. If there are no further questions on the shirt, I will move on to another item.
Mr. Stombaugh, I now hand you a homemade paper bag, Commission Exhibit 142, which parenthetically has also received another Exhibit No. 626, and ask you whether you are familiar with this item?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. Yes; I am.
Mr. EISENBERG. Does that have your mark on it?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. At the time I examined this, it was to be treated for latent fingerprints subsequent to my examination, and in a case like this I will not put a mark on the item itself because my mark might cover a latent fingerprint which is later brought up, and therefore obscure it.
In this particular instance, I made a drawing of this bag on my notes with the various sizes and description of it to refresh my memory at a later date.
Mr. EISENBERG. And it is--looking at those notes and as you remember now-- this is the bag?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. This is the bag.
Mr. EISENBERG. Now, this bag has an area of very light-brown color, and the greater portion of the area is a quite dark-brownish color. What was the color when you originally received it?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. When I originally received this it was a light-brown color.
Mr. EISENBERG. Which is at one end of the bag?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. One end of the bag.
Mr. EISENBERG. The tape is also two colors, one a lightish brown and the other a darkish brown. What color was the tape when you received it?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. The tape also was light brown.
Mr. EISENBERG. Could you turn the bag over? Was it the color that shows as a lighter yellowish-type of brown?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. Yes; a yellow-brown shade.
Mr. EISENBERG. When did you receive it, by the way, Mr. Stombaugh?
Mr. STOMBAUGH. This was received on November 23, 7:30 a.m, 1963.

Did somebody mention delusion of grandeur?

Still desperately trying to turn this fiasco around, I see! Thanks for the laugh and keep 'm coming!
