The Sawyer Memo and a Winchester

[Mark Ulrik]

MU-

I stand by my statement.

The slug found in the Walker residence was described, in contemporary same-day official reports, as "steel jacketed" by two DPD officers and two DPD detectives, who recovered the bullet themselves and who were attending the most high-profile assassination attempt in Texas history (Walker being a national figure at that time).

This is a photo of CE-573 (see below), which the WC says the FBI says is the true Walker bullet recovered at the April crime scene, but which is the most obviously copper-jacketed bullet in all police annals.

I am an amateur plinker at best, and I even can tell instantly that CE-573 is a copper-jacketed slug, and almost certainly not the one recovered at the Walker residence.

I have reasonable doubts four DPD'ers would ID the CE-573 as a "steel-jacketed" slug. Cops know guns & ammo, and there were two detectives on the scene,

Well, I for one find your doubts somewhat less than reasonable.

Last I heard, Steve Roe told the world he had dramatically uncovered an actual witness to the slug found in the Walker residence, thus incurring some rumors Roe was perhaps losing his marbles a bit. 

Did Roe ever produce his witness?

Losing his marbles? Hardly.

Steve is a fine researcher who has been kind enough to share certain information with me that he, out of privacy concerns, is unlikely to make public ‒ sorry (but not really).
