JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: T.F. Bowley, A Wind-Up Wristwatch & 1:17
« Last post by Zeon Mason on Today at 12:31:29 AM »I still think the main problem is the insistence on keeping the Mcwatters bus ride part of the WC theory valid.
Imo that’s in serious question because of Bledsoe on the bus , claiming to have seen a hole in the sleeve of a brown shirt Oswald was not wearing until AFTER he left the boarding house.
Are we CTs mistaken that Oswald was Wearing the reddish brown shirt at the TSBD and did not change out of that shirt to the other brown shirt with hole in sleeve until after he got to his boarding room?
And Mcwatters did not.actually ID Oswald imo.
The bus transfer ticket had no prints of either Oswald or Mcwatters on it which it should have had especially being paper. Given the pressure the FBI and Fritz were under from LBJ to make sure Oswald was their man, it’s not that unreasonable to suggest the transfer ticket may have been embellishment”.
So why not just discard this part of the WC theory of Oswald as “unconfirmed” and just go with the more substantial witness Whaley the Taxi driver and his manifest which had Oswald entering his cab somewhere between 12:30 and not later than 12:45?
In that scenario, Oswald had left TSBD by 3 minutes post shots ( presuming DPD officer Barnett locked the doors as he claimed ) and then 7 minutes later after traveling the 7 blocks to go directly to the taxi , Oswald could easily have entered Whaleys taxi as early as 12:40. That makes then easy for Oswald to have been at 10th and Patton by 1:07-1:08 and then all witness clocks and estimates match up and the 1:15 DOA document makes sense.
