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).

LP--

I guess you missed this:



Sawyer confirmed to the WC the contents of the memo, and even answered why there was no clothing description. 

How did you miss such an obvious part of the WC testimony?

I "missed it" because I was looking for Sawyer saying ANYTHING about a witness who had seen a man running out the rear of the TSBD with a rifle in his hand. Did I miss that too? Did Sawyer just have a brain fart on that minor detail when he relayed the information?

This is what you call "confirming the WC the contents of the memo"?

Isn't it obvious that what Pat Speer says is correct - Sawyer is conflating Brennan and Euins? Where the "guy running out the rear of the TSBD" came from, we'll probably never know.
