Probably because he mixed the sounds of the shots with their echoes and sorta hallucinated that it was two seconds.
Bob Jackson is 92 and living in Manitou Springs, Colorado. Why don’t you ask him yourself?  Ask him how well he remembers the spacing of the shots.

Okay.

Roger Craig?
Why is that a question?.

Which proves that even a U.S. Senator can be confused by the echoes of Dealey Plaza.

Secret Service Agents, too.
How does your speculation about what the shots sounded like prove anything?

18 H 747 ?

You meant to say 18 H, CE 1024, page 747.
The correct citation is 18 H 747.  It is from CE1024.

Seven seconds?
His estimation of time is likely poor. But even a first shot 9 or 10 seconds before the head shot, which is what you are suggesting, puts the second shot no earlier than z258 according to Sweatt.

2) He thought the Secret Service car was "a yellow closed sedan" that was behind LBJ's car!
What colour do yo think it was? It looked yellowish to me in the Hughes film.  It was officially yellow according to Google:

He also said he saw Oswald walking towards him down the Elm Street sidewalk about five minutes after the assassination.
You don’t think Oswald walked away from the TSBD a few minutes after?

If he didn't recall the shooting correctly at the time it happened, what reason is there to think he would get it right almost 63 years later?

Because Roger Craig was a nutcase.

It doesn't nor do the divergent recollections of the people you cited. Eye and ear witnesses don't prove anything unless you can corroborate their recollections are accurate. The Z-film would be a good place to start but that tells us a story different from the one you would rather believe.

Yes it is, an indication of how badly witnesses can recall an event. If witnesses could reliably recall an event, there would be a clear consensus among the ones you cited but that is clearly the not the case. They vary greatly in their estimate of how closely spaced the last two shots were. But you think that because they all agreed that the last two shots were closer together than the first two, it somehow establishes that as a fact, even though there were other witnesses who said the shots were evenly spaced and still others who said the first two shots were closer together. None of these opinions prove anything except that relying heavily on witnesses is a poor way to determine what happened.

So you cite one more unreliable witness to make your point. Why?
