Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Martin Weidmann]

We have the CT perspective, the LN perspective, and then Bowles’ perspective (from the Larry Sneed interview):

“Anyway, Oswald had been walking along at a fast pace. Others tried to measure the distance and said that you just couldn’t walk it that fast. You can when you’re in a hurry! When the Devil’s behind you, it’s not that hard to do.”

👍

Ever walked or ran the distance?

Here we go, your cherry picked eyewitnesses one whose watch was never tested and the other "screwball" was making a "bet" on what time it was? WTF?, Absolutely Pathetic!.

Says the guy who’s cherry-picking a police dispatcher clock that was never tested.

I suppose Dr. Richard Liguori was a screwball as well. Whatever it takes.

Thanks Jerry but unfortunately for you, you've proved the opposite of what you think. Your Methodist recollection states that were trying to bring Tippit back to life, so Tippit must be already dead when he arrived therefore the time of death happened at an earlier time. And the doctors established that the time of death was when he was shot and died instantly at 1:15.

Cool story, bro. Too bad it says “place of death: Methodist Hospital”.

 Now there’s some good empirical data!

Ever walked or ran the distance?

At age 66, and 8 stents, my cardiac rehab (3-times per week) includes treadmill incline interval training. Between 3.2 and 3.4 mph (average 3.25 mph) with incline varying up to 4%. This is kept up for a total time of 35-minutes. That equals something like 1.89 miles. I get a little sweaty, but not out of breath.

I take it that means that you have never walked or run the distance between Beckley and 10th street.

If Tippit was indeed killed at 1:14 (quod non), Oswald would only have had 10 minutes or so at to walk the distance and even that would be cutting it close.
If Tippit was actually killed between 1:06 and 1:10, as the evidence suggests, there is no way Oswald could have been there, at least not on foot.

Brilliant logic.  Oswald was seen at the boardinghouse.  Then he is seen at the Tippit murder scene.  But we are told "there is no way Oswald could have been there."  Wow.  Only a person in the legal profession could make that argument.  Once a thing has happened, the odds against it happening become moot.  They are trumped by reality.   Multiple witnesses place Oswald at the Tippit scene.  He was there whether he walked or strapped jet engines to his backside.   All the debarred defense attorney arguments in the world don't change the facts.
