Title: Then went outside to watch P. parade
Post by: Gerry Down on May 14, 2020, 06:48:59 PM
Oswald claimed:

1 - To have eaten his lunch on 1st floor
2 - Then went outside to watch P. parade
3 - Then went up to get coke (which is when Baker and Truly encountered him)

However, no one saw Oswald outside watching the parade. In theory, could Oswald have been suggesting he watched the parade through the second set of glass doors, thus not interacting with the people on the steps, and this is why no one saw him? There are no photos showing these second set of glass doors (i think), the nearest I could find was Bakers description on them as “glass doors”:

Mr. BAKER - Well, as you come up the steps, there is a glass door here in front of the building.
Mr. BELIN - Pardon me, this will be the recessed glass door right here swinging?
Mr. BAKER - All of this is the lobby.
Mr. BELIN - Yes, that is all the lobby.
Mr. BAKER - OK. This is the first door that you open to get in.
Mr. BELIN - Yes.
Mr. BAKER - And this is the lobby.
Mr. BELIN - Yes.
Mr. BAKER - And then you have another set of glass doors.
Mr. BELIN - There is another door right here, yes.
Mr. BAKER - And on through this one you have a swinging door, a little old counter-type door that swings--
Mr. BELIN - This would be the swinging door which would be to the west of the room marked " Mr. Truly's office" on Exhibit 362?
Mr. BAKER - That is right, sir.


Oswald could not have watch the parade from the front facade windows on the 1st floor because Eddie Piper was there and should have seen Oswald. However, in theory Oswald could have been suggesting he watched from inside the second set of glass doors, assuming they are glass doors as i don't think there is a photo of them. Is this what Oswald meant when he told Hosty "Then went outside to watch P. parade"?

We don't have Oswalds exact words though. Hosty might have taken Oswald up wrong.

Oswald might have said he looked outside, which Hosty might have taken up as Oswald actually being outside.

   The Front Door to the TSBD is Glass. Then, further inside the building, there is a counter with a short/swinging door. This short/swinging door is much like we sometimes see in a court room separating the spectators from the Lawyers, Jury, The Bench, etc. ANYTHING on the other side of those TSBD short/swinging doors is Irrelevant. NO One wanting to watch a parade going down Elm St would be physically positioned on the other side of the short/swinging doors.

"Then went outside to watch P. parade". If only we could work out what this incredibly complex sentence really means...

Maybe Mr Oswald used the verb "went" in the psychological sense of "had a daydream about going outside"... Maybe "outside" was used figuratively to mean "inside"... Maybe "watch" was commie-ironic for "not watch"... Maybe "P. parade" meant "Presley parade", an event put on by members of the local chapter of the national Elvis Fan Club... Maybe Hosty wrote these words because someone had slipped LSD in his coffee that day... Endless possible readings of these enigmatic words!

One thing is clear, however: Mr Oswald did not claim to have gone outside to watch the Presidential parade.

3 - Then went up to get coke (which is when Baker and Truly encountered him)

Sure, Oswald was a liar and maybe "in on it", but he didn't realize he was being set up as the pasty and never took a shot. The conspirators would never have relied on Oswald alone to do the job. Otherwise, how could Baker have encountered him calmly having a coke on the 1st floor after he had just shot the POTUS, wiped ALL the prints off his rifle, ditched it, then scrambled downstairs and bought a coke in <1.5 mins? Baker noted that he wasn't winded after flying down 5 flights of stairs. Was that possible if he was a lone nut assassin or was he a patsy that got double-crossed? Which is more likely and why?

Incorrect!

Mr Oswald claimed

1. - To have bought a coke in the second floor lunchroom
2. - Then went downstairs to the first floor
3. - Then went outside to watch P. parade.

In order to protect the lie that Mr Oswald was on the sixth floor when Mr Kennedy passed the building, Mr Oswald's claims had to be grotesquely distorted in the interrogation reports. Mr Oswald's claim to have gone "outside to watch the P. parade" was suppressed, and bogus confirmatory words were put in his mouth re. a post-assassination lunchroom encounter with Officer Baker & Mr Truly!

If Oswald needed to walk briskly without wiping off his prints then any extra time would have quickened his pace. There were no smeared prints on the rifle, they were wiped off clean or were never there in the 1st place. Since I don't believe Oswald smuggled the rifle into the TSBD in a paper bag or reassembled it or fired it or planted it, my guess is the latter. Seems more probable to me. Conspirators would never have relied on the patsy to stage the crime scene and take the shots and ditch the rifle and leave behind 3 hulls on the floor in a tight group near the SN window. That was Fritz's job. The actual shooter used a more reliable weapon that resembled a Carcano, such as a Mauser.

But you said he'd have to fly and do more than a brisk walk if he had to wipe all his prints off the rifle, so I presumed you knew how long that would take. No?

The shells weren't "left" by anybody in a tight group of three by the window.

Two of them were about a foot apart from each other by the window, and the other one was several feet away, on the other side of the Sniper's Lair.

You keep asking questions, trying to deflect from what is quite a simple point, that a suggestion was made (not by you) that stopping to wipe finger prints from the rifle would mean Oswald needed to fly down the stairs rather than take a brisk walk. I am asking for a fact to support that suggestion. If you can't provide one I'm not sure why you are commenting or what you are trying to achieve.

You should be asking why flying down the stairs automatically makes you winded? Don't get hung up on semantics. My "guessitmate" that Oswald was moving quickly down the stairs was because approx. 90 seconds after the shots rang out, Oswald was encountered in the second-floor lunchroom by Dallas police officer Marrion L, who did not notice that Oswald was winded. Obviously I can't prove it was impossible for Oswald to have done that, only that IMO it was improbable. The onus is on you to rebuke my guessimate by demonstrating it was possible. Otherwise, I'm not married to it and it doesn't make Oswald a LN by default.

If you can take 3 shots, wipe down the rifle of all your prints, ditch it as shown in the Alyea film and get to the 2nd floor in 90 seconds I will concede that it was possible. But I still wouldn't believe that's how it went down because that's just 1 piece of  evidence, of many, that casts doubt on Oswald being the shooter. So instead of tying myself into knots trying to make the LN narrative fit, I go with Occam's Razor and the patsy hypothesis fits like a glove. But that's JMHO, believe what you like.

   Let's Not forget that Before "flying down the stairs", Oswald had to travel Kitty-corner across the entire 6th floor from: (1) the Snipers Nest, to (2) the Hidey Slot, to (3) the Stairwell. There also were numerous stacks of books in addition to assorted bric-a-brac scattered all over/across that entire 6th Floor. Going from the Sniper's Nest and traveling Kitty-corner completely across the 6th Floor was not a simple Point A-To-Point B stroll.

There is no onus on me because I've not make a suggestion or claim that it is possible. The onus is on those that make a suggestion. I referred to a reenactment which showed the journey could be done in around 50 seconds at a brisk steady pace but beyond that made no claim. I have never attempted to wipe finger prints from a rifle but since you gave a suggestion for the time involved in doing this assumed you had some knowledge rather than were just expressing an opinion hence my question.

I find it interesting that people seem to want to pick up on any word or phrase used by witnesses etc and analyse it to death but then feel they can make comments on here based on their opinions and then when asked to back it up they argue semantics and try to push the burden of proof onto those asking for supporting evidence. Happens on both sides of the debate and guess it comes with the territory.

That's the reenactment I was referring to. Completed in less than 50 seconds at a steady pace and not winded. Suggests that being seen on the second floor 90 seconds after the last shot would have been possible if this reenactment is accurate.

Nick,

How long do you think it took Oswald to do the actual hiding of the carbine?  Ten seconds?

How much longer did it take him to wipe down the carbine (even if he did that)?  Another ten seconds?

If so, then he still had plenty of time to get to the Second Floor Lunch Room on a non-huffing and puffing way before Truly arrived on the second floor landing (followed by Baker), according to the video I posted above.

I have no idea how long it takes to wipe down a carbine. Why would I?

Agreed, if so then based on that reenactment then it would be possible to make it to the second floor landing in 90 seconds without having to 'fly' as was suggested. But as i say, I don't know how long wiping down and hiding it would take. I'd prefer not to express an opinion based on no experience but to see evidence.

That rigged-from-start-to-finish 'reenactment' was exposed as bogus years ago. Wrong dimensions in the fake 'TSBD' building. The footage of the guy walking across the 'sixth floor' does not come from the cited attempt (they only had one camera in the building!)  Standard Perry/Mack disinformation.  BS:

But it's all irrelevant anyway----------Mr Oswald never had any encounter in the second floor lunchroom with Officer Baker. That happened at the front entrance.

Do you have any info on the dimensions issue please? Who debunked it? I wouldn't find the single camera thing an issue unless it was shown that at no point did the 'actor' do the complete journey in around 50 seconds. Just because they filmed different sections and edited them together wouldn't be an issue would it?

He wasn't an actor, he was a fitness instructor. Go figure...

And the use of footage of him crossing the 'sixth floor' is highly manipulative--the viewer is led to believe the speed they see Mr Fitness Instructor walking is the speed that led to the 50-second result. "Gee, Oswald could have easily done it without breaking a sweat." Mission accomplished!

Once again, it's all an irrelevance ultimately, as it's 'reenacting' something that never happened in the first place. But it is educational on account of the insight it offers into how LN propaganda works  Thumb1:

Fair enough. Any idea how much time this would add?

That's why I put actor in ' ' marks.

Maybe he did do it without a sweat. Do you know whether he did do it or if the finish line shot was at the end of a proper reenactment? Probably not.

You don't believe it happened. Fair enough. You can believe what you wish of course.

Fair enough. Any idea how much time this would add?

You don't believe it happened. Fair enough. You can believe what you wish of course.

It's the conclusion to which the evidence leads.

Ask yourself: Why did Mr Oswald's claim (as clearly stated in Agent Hosty's 11/22 notes) to have visited that lunchroom prior to the assassination get turned into a claim (in the post-11/22 interrogation reports) to have visited it after the assassination?

That rigged-from-start-to-finish 'reenactment' was exposed as bogus years ago. Wrong dimensions in the fake 'TSBD' building. The footage of the guy walking across the 'sixth floor' does not come from the cited attempt (they only had one camera in the building!)  Standard Perry/Mack disinformation.  BS:

But it's all irrelevant anyway----------Mr Oswald never had any encounter in the second floor lunchroom with Officer Baker. That happened at the front entrance.

Al,

Exposed by whom?

Regardless, when you first became a student of the JFK Assassination, you wouldn't happen to have been very, very strongly predisposed to believing Oswald was innocent, now were you?

Was that before of after you saw "JFK"?

  Not that it is connected to the assassination, but Why is there a door where the stairwell empties/dead ends onto the 2nd Floor? If there was a fire inside the TSBD and people on the upper floors were attempting to exit the building via that stairwell, this 2nd Floor Door would essentially make the stairwell close to a Gas Chamber. There is No Door where the stairwell empties/dead ends onto the 6th Floor. That 2nd Floor door accessing the stairwell makes no sense.

There is no onus on me because I've not make a suggestion or claim that it is possible. The onus is on those that make a suggestion. I referred to a reenactment which showed the journey could be done in around 50 seconds at a brisk steady pace but beyond that made no claim. I have never attempted to wipe finger prints from a rifle but since you gave a suggestion for the time involved in doing this assumed you had some knowledge rather than were just expressing an opinion hence my question.

Since this is a game of rhetoric, if you are a LNer then, yes the onus is on you to demonstrate that it was possible. No one can prove it can't be done. Otherwise, I don't understand your position except you seem to doubt that Oswald didn't have enough time to get to the 2nd floor in 90 seconds. I never claimed it was impossible. I only commented that the time to wipe off his prints were not taken into consideration during any re-enactments. I assumed the added time would force Oswald to make up the time by "flying" down the stairs. You claimed that an actor did it walking briskly in 50 seconds, without any substantiation. So you are implying that it took 40 seconds to wipe off the prints and ditch the rifle. Did the actor also take change from his pocket and get a coke from a vending machine? How many seconds did that add? Where is YOUR evidence that all that could have been accomplished in 90 secs? How much "brisker" did he have to walk for him to be winded? See, it's a game of rhetoric.

I find it interesting that people seem to want to pick up on any word or phrase used by witnesses etc and analyse it to death but then feel they can make comments on here based on their opinions and then when asked to back it up they argue semantics and try to push the burden of proof onto those asking for supporting evidence. Happens on both sides of the debate and guess it comes with the territory.

Why were you so defensive re my response? I answered your rhetorical questions didn't I? Wasn't it obvious that I was speculating? Did you think I needed to back up my speculation with an experiment? You are trying to rebut my opinion with semantics and claims of your own. So counter my opinion with your own facts and evidence. I doubt Oswald could have done it all in 90 seconds. My reasoning was that it takes extra time to wipe down the rifle of all prints, which IMO took longer than 40 seconds. Your only rebut was "back it up". But in lieu of any experiments to re-enact this feat, you were asking me to prove a negative, which is impossible. So yes, the onus is on you LNers to demonstrate that it was possible via re-enactment and back up your opinion. And if you can't do it, then it supports my opinion. But opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and LNers will never change theirs.

How many failed re-enactments would it take for you to change your opinion that it was impossible for Oswald to get to the 2nd floor from the SN in 90 seconds? (rhetorical)

Friends, since the sensational unearthing of Agent Hosty's interrogation notes--------------------

(https://i.imgur.com/ZOGuZed.jpg)

-------------------the debate between LNers and CTers boils down to one core question:

Whose story do we believe, that told by Mr Oswald or that told by his accusers?

For five-and-a-half decades, we didn't have Mr Oswald's story. Now we do!

Mr Oswald: I visited the lunchroom on the second floor before the P. parade
Accusers: He visited the lunchroom on the second floor after the P. parade

Mr Oswald: I went outside to watch the P. parade
Accusers: He fired bullets from the sixth-floor window during the P. parade


As you reflect on this choice, I invite you to set aside momentarily what you think you know and simply consider the following:

The authorities went out of their way to suppress Mr Oswald's story, misrepresenting his most basic claims about his movements and whereabouts at the all-important time.

What can it have been about these claims that frightened them so much they had to keep them from the public?

I'm interested in the topic and am open to new evidence and arguments, such as the Hosty note, and accept that there are questions and doubts about the official story.

    What You are contending regarding Oswald is certainly possible. The problem is the scope of this Conspiracy would involve a Very large number of Active participants, in addition to ALL of them "dummying up" for decades. This would include a number of Nobody's such as Roy Truly, Officer Baker, etc. Getting an elite group like the SS to orchestrate & then keep a secret of this magnitude is what they are trained to do. But individuals such as Roy Truly?.............. As Uncle Joe would say, "Come On Man"!

But that's just the point, Mr Storing-----------it's not what I'm contending, it's what Mr Oswald himself is contending!

Here, once again, is what he claims:

(https://i.imgur.com/2rl15vj.jpg)

You want evidence of an orchestrated coverup? Read on!

Stage 1: Mr Oswald's claims are officially written up by Agents Hosty and Bookhout that same day in the following weasel-worded way:

(https://i.imgur.com/3yR23sl.jpg)

See what they've done? They've kept the core claims intact but
----------------------the sequence of events has been made ambiguous
----------------------instead of "went outside" when Mr Kennedy passed we now have the (technically correct but utterly misleading) "on the first floor". Shameless!

Note also, however, the complete lack of any mention of an encounter with an officer in the second floor lunchroom. Rather curious, dontcha think?

Stage 2: After Mr Oswald's murder, a solo rewrite is provided courtesy of Agent Bookhout, in which he totally garbles what Mr Oswald claimed by putting bogus confirmation of 'the' lunchroom encounter into the dead Mr Oswald's mouth:

(https://i.imgur.com/QymYaN1.jpg)

Agent Bookhout also does something very interesting in this solo run: he introduces a name that was not in the original joint Hosty/Bookhout but did end up on it.

I reproduce that original report in full below, with a yellow box around the name:

(https://i.imgur.com/ONkBbei.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/T8ZF5wh.jpg)

Now! Why on earth is a name not mentioned anywhere in the report written on the top of the report? Because------------------I submit-----------------it's a name they're extremely worried about: being the name of the man Mr Oswald told Captain Fritz he was standing beside when Mr Kennedy passed the building.

Only after Mr Oswald's death will it be safe to bring that name into an interrogation report, with----------once again----------context/timeframe all nicely garbled up: Mr Oswald's claim to have been out front with Mr Shelley at the time of the P. parade is turned into a claim to have been out front with Mr Shelley several minutes after the assassination!

It's looking an awful lot like we can name the man under the yellow arrow as Mr Bill Shelley and the man under the blue arrow as Mr Lee Harvey Oswald:

(https://i.imgur.com/74B5Txg.jpg)

I would also suggest that Mr Buell Wesley Frazier, in posing for a recent photograph in this manner and with his left index finger pointing to that very spot, either is being remarkably thoughtless or is being about as candid as he feels it is safe or comfortable to be:

Oswald was a Marine marksman / sharpshooter who had shot at targets as far away as 500 yards and scored well in all the shooting positions except "standing," he had about five seconds between shots while using a firearm that required only 2.3 seconds, and he could have either visually compensated for the scope's being slightly off, or he could have used the carbine's iron sights.

See what I mean about jumping thru hoops...

1) Any marksman/sharpshooter will tell you that you must constantly practice to remain sharp. But if Oswald practiced why not sight in the scope?
2) How would he compensate for the scope being GROSSLY off unless he saw where the 1st shot went. Did he see a puff of smoke when it struck the pavement?
3) He would have truly been a skilled shooter to switch to the iron sights after he realized his scope was off. But why would a skilled marksman use a wonky scope in the 1st place?
4) If he was a marksman, he would have known the scope was worse than useless, especially if he never practiced. He would use the iron sights right off the bat and bypass the scope.
5) If he knew the scope was useless, and knew he would be using the iron sights instead, then why did he keep the scope on the barrel when he disassembled the rifle and placed its parts in a paper bag?
6) Was the scope kept on the rifle so it would match the back yard photos? If so, then it was a patsy rifle, which was planted and likely never even fired. Otherwise, why was the scope on the rifle?

Ans these questions without LOL and convince me that Oswald even took a shot. Or concede that combined with having none of his prints on the rifle and no nitrates on his face it was unlikely a marksman would have used the leaky unreliable MC rifle in the condition it was found. Instead, Oswald would have used a Mauser with a sighted in scope if he wasn't in the lunchroom at the time having a coke. But since you are a diehard LNer, I don't expect any of this to sink in or sway you. But checkmate anyway sucka!  ;)

If you'd watched "The Lost Bullet" and "Cold Case: JFK" you'd realize that the first shot probably hit the arm of the traffic light, the concrete by the manhole cover, and the curb by  James Tague.

PS  Go sucka,  yourself.

   You are talking about a Real bullet right? Sounds more like "The Fast and the  Furious" CGI  BS: These are the lengths you guys have to go to in order to make 3 shots fired work. Same goes for standing JFK on his head in order to have a Downward fired bullet striking him in the back end up exiting his Throat. More Only seen in movies CGI  BS:

Meanwhile, of course, Officer Baker was being pressurized into changing his true recollection of encountering a man in a brown jacket walking away from the stairway on the third or fourth floor-------

--------into a fake recollection of encountering Mr Oswald in the second floor lunchroom.

NB: The written record shows that Officer Baker took quite a bit of persuading before he lent his support to this sick, alibi-eliminating hoax!

  Just because the 2nd Floor Oswald Lunchroom Encounter may Not have happened, does Not substantiate the Theory of Oswald being on the Landing. If this were the case, anyone could place Oswald almost anywhere other than inside the snipers nest when the JFK Motorcade traveled down Elm St. I find it more interesting that Hosty claimed he destroyed his Notes vs these same alleged hand written notes turning up inside the National Archives on the backside of a DPD Affidavit form. That begs legit inquiry. Basing Anything on the word of Oswald is fraught with pitfalls.

Weak argumentation from you here, Mr Storing. I'm afraid your irrational devotion to keeping Mr Oswald off those front steps is showing again!

Claiming that Mr Oswald was out front trumps all other CT claims for the simple double reason that it

a)--------------------was Mr Oswald's own claim (which he would hardly have made unless he was confident he'd be backed up by at least one other Depository employee)
b)--------------------was provably suppressed by Captain Fritz & Company (which they would hardly have done had they thought it was an easy-to-refute lie).

All competing CT claims about Mr Oswald's whereabouts at 12.30pm are arbitrary by comparison. If you disagree, go ahead and suggest one-----------we'll see how it stands up!

And! You are still missing the point that the Hosty notes (nothing 'alleged' about them BTW) don't just give us Mr Oswald's claimed whereabouts at the time of the shooting, they also prove that he never confirmed the lunchroom incident------------and that Captain Fritz & Company felt the need to lie about this. Again: can you suggest a cogent alternative explanation as to why they would do this?

Did those who perpetrated the cover-up confirm to the world that they had perpetrated a cover-up? Uh, no, Mr Storing, they did not. If you think this is an argument against there having been a cover-up, then you don't understand what the term cover-up means.

However! The weird morphing of the Hosty/Bookhout story from one interrogation report to the next confirms beyond any doubt that this is indeed what Mr Oswald claimed. If you can find any holes in my analysis of that phase of the thing, I'm all ears. Otherwise, you're just feebly doubling down on your irrational resistance to the perfectly reasonable idea that Mr Oswald did indeed go outside to watch the P. parade. (Out of interest, where do you think he was at the time of the shooting?)

Furthermore! The pre-motorcade sightings of Mr Oswald in the second floor lunchroom (by, at a conservative tally, Ms Carolyn Arnold and Mr Jack Dougherty)... the crass inconsistencies in the evolving lunchroom story... the unrefuted (because irrefutable) evidence that the Wiegman film was altered to hide something in the relevant area of the front entrance... the extreme nervousness which the Altgens photograph caused the FBI... and the presence of three men in that area where only two (Messrs.

You're just lazily repeating yourself. "I don't believe there was a cover-up because that would require there to have been a cover-up and I don't believe cover-ups ever happen because of a proverb I once heard."

And yet you have not once offered an alternative (i.e. non-Oswaldian) explanation for that fabricated shadow. Do you have one? And do you seriously imagine only two people (one of whom died soon thereafter) would have been involved in the decision to fabricate and the act of fabricating itself?

But hey, by all means continue your professions of faith in the integrity of Captain Fritz and Company, and continue studiously refusing to join any dots!

Oh, I see------------somebody looked at the Depository front entrance in the Wiegman film, frowned and then said, "You know what, that would be just soooooooo much prettier if we added some shadow...", upon which the one other person present (who died shortly after this, naturellement) clapped their hands in excitement and cried, "What a divine idea!

Hmmm... maybe the original Wiegman film showed Mr Lovelady slitting his wrists as the shots were ringing out... No one would have noticed that, and--------unlike Mr Oswald's being on the steps-------it's something the authorities would NOT have wanted getting out into the public domain.

  Familiarize yourself with the Couch WC Testimony. The 8"-10" "Blood Pool" has Not been explored. This is why I continue Faulting the Old Guard Researchers. They did an abysmal job of digging into this case. How tough would it have been to get Couch back out to Dealey Plaza and have him show EXACTLY where he saw this Blood Pool? It was located somewhere down the Elm St Ext based on the Couch testimony. That Blood Pool was Easily within a baseball throw of the TSBD Steps/Landing.

I seem to know it better than you do.........

Mr. BELIN - All right. Now, you say you saw blood on the sidewalk, Mr. Couch?
Mr. COUCH - That's right.
Mr. BELIN - Where was that?
Mr. COUCH - This was the little walkway - steps and walkway that leads up to the corner, the west corner, the southwest corner of the book Depository Building. Another little sidewalk, as I recall, turns west and forms that little parkway and archway right next to the Book Depository Building.


So you hypothesize that the Wiegman film showed someone (unnoticed by anyone--or were they silenced in a cover-up?) or something (unnoticed by anyone--or were they silenced in a cover-up?) that caused a pool of alleged blood to form at the southwest corner of the Depository building?  :D

Look, Mr Storing, I get it. I really do. You will consider any explanation, however wild and illogical, for the fake shadow in Wiegman rather than the obvious one: Mr Oswald's presence.

You don't want this thing solved, do you? You just enjoy the game, and want nothing to happen that would stop it from going on forever and ever and ever.

    You are wandering into an area of the assassination You are Not Familiar with. Couch was riding inside Camera Car #3. He was still inside that car when it went Under the Triple Underpass. Couch's car STOPPED immediately after going Under the Triple Underpass. Couch then went BACK to the TSBD. It was at THIS Point In Time that Couch Witnessed the 8"-10" Blood Pool. This leaves Plenty of time for someone that was allegedly cloaked by the Shadow, to leave their position on the TSBD Landing/Steps and move down the Elm St Ext. and possibly be involved in that Blood Pool.

Your problem, Mr Storing, is not just that this speculation is wild and evidence-free, it also runs aground on your own contrived objections to Mr Oswald's having been on the steps:
-------How come no one noticed this 'someone' on the west side of the doorway during the motorcade?
-------If anyone did notice this 'someone', how could they have been made to keep quiet about it when we know that cover-ups never succeed?

But I guess those objections don't matter to you, as long as Mr Oswald's alibi is no longer the issue.

My claim, by contrast, has evidence, logic and common sense on its side: the reason why Mr Oswald claimed to have visited the second floor lunchroom before the assassination, and to have after that gone outside to watch the P. parade, was that he had indeed done those things--------------and the reason why both those claims were suppressed by the people who were supposed to be investigating the assassination, and the reason why the Wiegman film was tampered with, was that this man had an alibi that had to be suppressed at all costs.

No. Whether Mr Oswald is the man standing behind Mr Lovelady or Prayer Man, he was certainly noticed by Mr Frazier and very probably by Messrs Shelley and Lovelady too.

Mr Frazier----and probably Messrs Shelley and Lovelady-----were pressurized into keeping quiet. (But! In their same-day affidavits, they do NOT state that they did not see Mr Oswald at the time of the motorcade...)

Quote

Because their presence, being that of a non-employee, would have stuck out to people in a way that Mr Oswald's simply would not have.

Quote
No One has Ever definitely identified Prayer Man. Not everyone standing on the TSBD Landing has been identified.

If Prayer Man is a Depository employee, then he is either Mr Oswald or Mr Shelley. There's no one else left.

I made every effort to find an alternative candidate in Mr Kenneth Duvall, but it didn't work. (I still think it's possible Mr Duvall was on those steps, just not in the Prayer Man position.)

I have consistently maintained that Mr Oswald was out front. My only vacillation has been whether he is Prayer Man or not. I now tend more and more to the view that he is indeed Prayer Man.

***************

Here's what Mr Mal Couch told the Clifton (TX) Record, 11/22/2000:

"I started toward the building where I had seen the rifle in the window. Then I saw something very weird. There was a trail of blood from the spot where the shooting occurred to the entrance of the Texas School Book Depository. I pointed it out to a man with me.

"Just then an FBI man stepped out of the building, and in his hand was an object dripping blood. It looked like a piece of hairy flesh. I know I didn't imagine this. The scene is very clear to me."


Perhaps the unshadowed Wiegman film showed Mr Lovelady holding a piece of hairy flesh in his right hand? Certainly less far-fatched than the idea of Mr Oswald's having really gone outside to watch the P. parade!

You're confused, Mr Storing!

With the possible but very problematical exception of Mr Kenneth Duvall, we have no good reason to think that any non-employee was standing there. We have, by contrast, very good reason indeed to think that Mr Oswald was----------------and very good reason to think that the 'investigating' authorities would have been desperate to hide his presence there... which desperation would have led to pressurizing of witnesses and tampering with evidence.

Coming back with 'There was no cover-up because cover-ups just don't happen in the real world' is, I'm afraid, no come-back at all.

Quote
SHOULDA/WOULDA = HAHAHA! And saying that Frazier and probably Messrs Shelley and Lovelady were "pressured into keeping quiet" =  SPECULATION on your part.

Unlike your wildly speculative pool-of-blood explanation, Mr Oswald out front is an explanation that makes sense of the evidence. It is in fact the only such explanation, being a heck of a lot more logical than any other claimed location for Mr Oswald (including of course the wild WC explanation)!  Thumb1:

Let me slow the first part down for you:

It really is most amusing how Team Keep LHO Off Dem Steps have kept shifting the goalposts in order to hide the fact that they've been losing the argument...

LHO can't have been there because his presence would have been noticed! ------> It was someone other than LHO, and so what if their presence wasn't noticed! Never rely on witnesses!

There's no evidence LHO ever said he went out to watch the motorcade! ------> (...Hosty notes turn up...) The Hosty notes need to be carbon-dated! Besides, 'Then went outside to watch P. parade' is ambiguously worded! Besides, LHO was a liar!

Frazier hasn't corroborated your theory, therefore your theory is dead! -------> Nothing Frazier says can be taken as reliable!

Good luck with your Lovelady-holding-a-piece-of-dripping-flesh explanation for the Wiegman shadow, Mr Storing. Or perhaps you'd now prefer to suggest that Mr Jack Ruby was standing beside Mr Lovelady and that's why the shadow was added? I mean, that's so much more likely than Mr Oswald's having been telling the truth about going outside to watch the P. parade.

Whatever it takes to indulge your wholly irrational and rather LNerish resistance to the idea of Mr Oswald out front, right?

Stop playing games, Mr Storing! You have declared Mr Frazier an utterly untrustworthy witness. If he were to confirm Mr Oswald's presence on the steps, you would refuse to believe him.

You can indeed claim Batman was on the front steps of the TSBD, but the fact that he is a fictional character means your claim will be a non-starter.

I can claim Mr Charles Brehm was on the front steps of the TSBD, but his proven location elsewhere in Dealey Plaza at that time means my claim will a non-starter.
 
You problem here, Mr May, is that you can't counter the claim Mr Oswald was on the front steps of the TSBD with the simple words 'I can prove he was at the SN window'. All you have is 56 year old LN BS. This must really hurt!

Based on the above interrogation notes, this could be some of the questions that would satisfy what was recollected by the interrogators.

Question. Why were you in the 2nd floor lunchroom when Baker and Truly saw you?
Oswald. I was getting a coke.

Question. Then what did you do?
Oswald. I went downstairs and had lunch.

Question. And what happened next?
Oswald. Then I went outside to watch the President's parade.

Question. Did you see anybody outside?
Oswald. I talked to Shelley for five or ten minutes and based on what Shelley was saying I decided to go home.

Based on the above interrogation notes, this could be some of the questions that would satisfy what was recollected by the interrogators.

Question. Why were you in the 2nd floor lunchroom when Baker and Truly saw you?
Oswald. I was getting a coke.

Question. Then what did you do?
Oswald. I went downstairs and had lunch.

Question. And what happened next?
Oswald. Then I went outside to watch the President's parade.

Question. Did you see anybody outside?
Oswald. I talked to Shelley for five or ten minutes and based on what Shelley was saying I decided to go home.

Glad to see we are in agreement, Mr Mytton, that there can be no reasonable doubt that Mr Oswald really did tell Captain Fritz, 'Then I went outside to watch the Presidential parade'!  Thumb1:

Now! The only fault I can find with your above analysis of the various interrogation notes & reports is that it makes absolutely no sense.

But let's start with a nice easy baby step, ok?

When exactly do you think Captain Fritz wrote these notes?*-------------------

* We'll let Mr Storing take the crucial step of hiring a handwriting expert to verify what doesn't need verifying, i.e. that they were indeed written by Captain Fritz.

But of course all this is immaterial because Oswald himself admitted to being in the building at the time.

Oswald: I work in that building.
Reporter: Were you in that building at the time?
Oswald: Naturally if I work in that building, yes sir.

While Mr Mytton works through the ongoing denial issues he has with the meaning of the words "Then went outside to watch the P. parade", we might note that he and I are in agreement that, between Mr Oswald's entry into the Texas School Book Depository building that morning and his departure from it several minutes after the assassination, he did not leave the building.  Thumb1:

    In short, YOU are unqualified to make this Judgement.  And, are YOU Now running away from Your Previous Claim that These "NOTES" were written AFTER Oswald's 1st Q/A?

 :D

Not alone am I not running away from that claim, Mr Storing, I am more than happy to repeat it here for you:

The Hosty notes containing the words Then went outside to watch the P. parade were written after Mr Oswald's first interrogation.

Now! All eyes are on you, Mr Storing, as you take this opportunity to NOT run away from your claim:

The interrogation notes make it perfectly clear that Oswald says that he went outside after he saw Baker and Truly, it's no mystery.
Oswald knows he was positively identified in the 2nd floor lunchroom so now has to incorporate this encounter into his narrative.

A corroborated alibi is powerful evidence in proving your innocence, watch the following compilation of film clips and see that Oswald had PLENTY of opportunities to claim that he was outside with his workmates watching the P'parade, but never says a word?

So what? In response to the reporter's question, he confirms that he had not left his place of work--and that it would be ridiculous to use this against him. Neither Mr Oswald nor the reporter uses the word "inside". And, if Captain Fritz has been playing it sly as he likes to do, Mr Oswald will have been given to understand that he is not being charged as the triggerman but as the person who supplied the rifle. So he is unaware of how helpful it would be to his cause to respond to the reporter's question with, 'Well, sir, I'm going to need some semantic clarification from you before answering. When you say 'in the building', do you include the enclosed front part of the building?'

Thankfully, of course, the regrettable brevity of Mr Oswald's reply has not been a problem since this came to light:

(https://i.imgur.com/Rtd7NfM.jpg)

There is literally only one place that is both part of the Texas School Book Depository and "outside": the front steps!  Thumb1:

We now know, in short, that Mr Oswald made his whereabouts at the time of the assassination perfectly clear to Captain Fritz. 'That's alright, son, we're not accusing you of doing the actual shooting, but we do have you tied to the rifle.' Little likelihood of his blurting out his alibi to the press. Meantime, the alibi he has given in interrogation can be suppressed in good ole' style.

Hahahaha, that's absolutely hilarious, ye cannae change the laws of physics. Lovelady, Frazier and Shelley who were all on the outside steps all agree that they were outside.

Mr. BALL - Did you eat your lunch?

I say, you know, he was supposed to come by during our lunch hour so you don't get very many chances to see the President of the United States and being an old Texas boy, and [he] never having been down to Texas very much I went out there to see him and just like everybody else was, I was standing on the steps there and watched for the parade to come by and so I did and I stood there until he come by.

Mr. LOVELADY - That's on the second floor; so, I started going to the domino room where I generally went in to set down and eat and nobody was there and I happened to look on the outside and Mr. Shelley was standing outside with Miss Sarah Stanton, I believe her name is, and I said, "Well, I'll go out there and talk with them, sit down and eat my lunch out there, set on the steps," so I went out there.

Mr. BALL - You were standing where?
Mr. SHELLEY - Just outside the glass doors there.
Mr. BALL - That would be on the top landing of the entrance?
Mr. SHELLEY - yes.

And Mr Oswald told Captain Fritz he went "outside" too. Read for yourself--------------------

Perfectly clear!  Thumb1:

As for 'in the building'...

Mr Oswald is giving a curt reply to the latest question being fired at him. His tone is one of exasperation (of course I was there------it's where I work).

If someone were to ask, say, Mr Joe Molina or Ms Pauline Saunders, 'Where in the building were you when the President passed?', they might very naturally reply, 'Why, I was standing on the front steps'. What they won't do is correct the questioner's wording. Because there really is nothing to correct: that enclosed front entrance is in the building. It's certainly not part of the street!

No, Molina and Saunders, just like Lovelady, Shelley and Frazier who were all on the same front steps would all say, just like their respective testimonies, that they were outside, not inside. There's a reason they're called front steps, that's because by definition they're out front.

Oswald said he was in the building and that's that and as I previously said if he had this rock solid alibi, then we wouldn't be here.

Because there is no mention of any encounter with an officer & Mr Truly either in the draft report written by Agent Hosty-------------

The chronology is as follows:

1. Agent Hosty's draft report is written
2. Agents Hosty & Bookhout's joint report is written
3. Agent Bookhout's solo report is written.

The progression from 1 through 2 to 3 is as follows:

1. Mr Oswald's claimed alibi is straightforwardly recorded (with no mention of any lunchroom encounter)
2. Mr Oswald's claimed alibi is changed from "outside" to "on the first floor" (with no mention of any lunchroom encounter)
3. Mr Oswald's claimed alibi is buried (with the introduction of a lunchroom encounter that alters the timeframe of Mr Oswald's going outside)

Now, Mr Mytton! You never did answer my question: When do you think Captain Fritz wrote the interrogation notes you have been citing?

Because there is no mention.....

A short FBI/Police report missing non pertinent details isn't a concern. The fact that an innocent civilian who personally new Oswald and a Police Officer, respectively Truly and Baker both testified to the fact that they saw Oswald in the 2nd floor lunchroom a couple of minutes after the assassination, really puts the kibosh on the Oswald in the doorway malarkey and as if this wasn't enough we have another innocent civilian Mrs Reid who came from the other direction and she instantly recognises Oswald coming in through the back office door and passing by her about two minutes after the last shot, which 100% corroborates Baker and Truly. see diagram below

Mr. BELIN. What did you see?
Mr. TRULY. I saw the officer almost directly in the doorway of the lunch-room facing Lee Harvey Oswald.
Mr. BELIN. And where was Lee Harvey Oswald at the time you saw him?
Mr. TRULY. He was at the front of the lunchroom, not very far inside he was just inside the lunchroom door.

Representative BOGGS -He came up to you?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir; and when I hollered at him he turned around and walked back to me.
Representative BOGGS -Right close to you?
Mr. BAKER - And we were right here at this position 24, right here in this doorway.
Representative BOGGS -Right. What did you say to him?
Mr. BAKER - I didn't get anything out of him. Mr. Truly had come up to my side here, and I turned to Mr. Truly and I says, "Do you know this man, does he work here?" And he said yes, and I turned immediately and went on out up the stairs.
Mr. BELIN - Then you continued up the stairway?
Representative BOGGS -Let me ask one other question. You later, when you recognized this man as Lee Oswald, is that right, saw pictures of him?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir. I had occasion to see him in the homicide office later that evening after we got through with Parkland Hospital and then Love Field and we went back to the City Hall and I went up there and made this affidavit.
Representative BOGGS -After he had been arrested?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir.

Mr. BELIN. And then what did you do?
Mrs. REID. Well, I kept walking and I looked up and Oswald was coming in the back door of the office. I met him by the time I passed my desk several feet and I told him, I said, "Oh, the President has been shot, but maybe they didn't hit him."
He mumbled something to me, I kept walking, he did, too. I didn't pay any attention to what he said because I had no thoughts of anything of him having any connection with it at all because he was very calm. He had gotten a coke and was holding it in his hands and I guess the reason it impressed me seeing him in there I thought it was a little strange that one of -the warehouse boys would be up in the office at the time, not that he had done anything wrong. The only time I had seen him in the office was to come and get change and he already had his coke in his hand so he didn't come for change and I dismissed him. I didn't think anything else.
Mr. BELIN. When you saw him, I believe you said you first saw him when he was coming through the door?
Mrs. REID. Yes, sir.
Mr. BELIN. Turning to Exhibit 497, what doorway was it where you first saw him?
Mrs. REID. Right here.
Mr. BELIN. You are pointing to the doorway between numbers 27 and 28?
Mrs. REID. That is right.

Mr. BELIN. Do you remember how long by the stopwatch it took you?
Mrs. REID. Approximately 2 minutes.
Mr. DULLES. I didn't hear you.
Mrs. REID. Two minutes.
Mr. BELIN. From the time of the last shot the time you and Oswald crossed?
Mrs. REID. Yes; I believe that is the way we timed it.

Fritz's notes were written several days later and not like you claimed at 3pm during the interrogation. So, as a result, Fritz was not all that clear with his notes trying to remember what important information was said several days later.

Just like Sarah Stanton is the prayer figure?  :D       

    The Provenance of these alleged "Notes" is sketchy: (1)  They were "discovered" Over a Half Century AFTER allegedly being Written, (2) Their Author has Yet to be Verified, (3) Their actual Date of Composition Remains Unknown.

  I was looking at photos of that 2nd Floor stairwell door that opens onto the 2nd Floor. There is a Desk very close to that Stairwell Door. Across from/Very Close to that desk is a LARGE Window on the Wall that the desk faces. There were Windows on all 4 walls of the TSBD. This means there was a LOT of Sunlight coming through these windows and spilling onto that 2nd Floor. With the distance between Roy Truly and Officer Baker being so great that he/Truly went Up the stairwell and was Not aware that Baker was Not behind him = there is No Way either Truly or Baker would NOT have glimpsed Oswald exiting that stairwell and crossing the 2nd floor as he moved toward the vestibule which led to the Lunch Room. The FBI re-enactment of Oswald's journey from the stairwell to the vestibule misleads the viewer regarding the high level of natural sunlight passing through those windows and lighting that 2nd floor area. The FBI either filmed that portion of their re-enactment at Night, or they covered the windows prior to filming the segment of Oswald exiting the stairwell and crossing the 2nd floor.

Friends, there is no mystery whatsoever about where the encounter between Mr Oswald, Officer Baker and Mr Truly took place: front entrance of the building.

Before the speed of Officer Baker's rush to the entrance was known, the DPD were happily telling the world about it!

(https://i.imgur.com/ttm5oKl.jpg)

"As an officer rushed into the building": makes it clear as day that this is not several minutes after the shots rang out! This is Officer Baker's rush into the building. Duh!

Mr James Jarman (as he would tell the HSCA) had this selfsame scene described to him by Mr Billy Lovelady, who did not leave the steps as he told the WC he did---------------------

"Well, there was a billy love lady standing out there, he was on the steps, see... And, Oswald was coming out the door and he (= Mr Lovelady!) said the police had stopped Oswald and sent him back in the building, billy love lady said that Mr. Tru(l)y told the policeman that Oswald was alright, that he worked there, so Oswald walked on down the stairs."

As soon as it became clear (later that evening) that having the LHO-cop encounter at the front entrance in fact gave Mr Oswald an alibi, a new------------and wholly fictional------------story was written: the Second Floor Lunchroom Encounter.

In order to make that story stick, Mr Oswald's own truthful claim about his visit to that lunchroom BEFORE the assassination--------------

(https://i.imgur.com/7cOc5NY.jpg)

---------------was magically (and posthumously) turned into a 'confirmation' that an encounter with a cop had taken place in that lunchroom AFTER the assassination.

Yes, these were sick doggies.

Only--------------and it's kinda funny when you think about it----------------Mr. Harry Holmes was out of the loop about how crucial it was to pretend that Mr Oswald had confirmed the fiction:

Mr. BELIN. By the way, where did this policeman stop him when he was coming down the stairs at the Book Depository on the day of the shooting?
Mr. HOLMES. He said it was in the vestibule.
Mr. BELIN. He said he was in the vestibule?
Mr. HOLMES. Or approaching the door to the vestibule. He was just coming, apparently, and I have never been in there myself. Apparently there is two sets of doors, and he had come out to this front part.
Mr. BELIN. Did he state it was on what floor?
Mr. HOLMES. First floor. The front entrance to the first floor.


"The front entrance to the first floor": these words require endless parsing only in the myopic eyes of idi*ts and propagandists who think that the words "Then went outside to watch the P. parade" require endless parsing!

The facts are not at all complicated:

1. Mr Oswald visited the second floor lunchroom before the P. parade (and was noticed there by Ms Carolyn Arnold)
2. Mr Oswald went outside to watch the P. parade (not to see the assassination aftermath or commotion!)
3. Mr Oswald was asked by a cop running into the building if he worked there (---------->i.e. could he guide him to the nearest stairs?)

Mr Oswald had a watertight alibi, and Captain Fritz and Co. knew it. Their solution: bury the alibi, by whatever means necessary.

Thankfully, we now know beyond any reasonable doubt that this scene captured by Mr Darnell-------------

(https://i.imgur.com/NAoHBlz.jpg)

-------------is just seconds away from the real LHO-Baker-Truly encounter!

 I am Not agreeing that is Lovelady and Shelley, "high-tailing it to the railroad yard....", but IF it is Not Lovelady and Shelley, THEN you NOW have Those 2 guys + Prayer Man being Unidentified and having been physically positioned in The Steps area when the motorcade passed by the TSBD. 3 Unknown People with the Best explanation for this being Image TIME STAMPING Issues. Lovelady and Shelley gave WC Testimony that they CROSSED the Elm St Ext immediately after the shooting and stood there 2+ minutes. This means if those 2 guys "high-tailing" toward the railroad yard are Lovelady & Shelley, they would have had to of traveled back across the Elm St Ext roughly 2+ minutes AFTER the shooting. And, if this is Lovelady and Shelley we are looking at, THEN the Officer Baker TIME STAMPING is also Incorrect.

As late as November 29th......

On the 23rd, Roy Truly who actually knew Oswald tells us that he encountered Oswald in the 2nd floor lunchroom. Oops!

(https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth340660/m1/1/high_res/)

 The fact that an innocent civilian who personally new Oswald and a Police Officer, respectively Truly and Baker both testified to the fact that they saw Oswald in the 2nd floor lunchroom a couple of minutes after the assassination, really puts the kibosh on the Oswald in the doorway malarkey and as if this wasn't enough we have another innocent civilian Mrs Reid who came from the other direction and she instantly recognises Oswald coming in through the back office door and passing by her about two minutes after the last shot, which 100% corroborates Baker and Truly. see diagram below

Mr. BELIN. What did you see?
Mr. TRULY. I saw the officer almost directly in the doorway of the lunch-room facing Lee Harvey Oswald.
Mr. BELIN. And where was Lee Harvey Oswald at the time you saw him?
Mr. TRULY. He was at the front of the lunchroom, not very far inside he was just inside the lunchroom door.

Representative BOGGS -He came up to you?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir; and when I hollered at him he turned around and walked back to me.
Representative BOGGS -Right close to you?
Mr. BAKER - And we were right here at this position 24, right here in this doorway.
Representative BOGGS -Right. What did you say to him?
Mr. BAKER - I didn't get anything out of him. Mr. Truly had come up to my side here, and I turned to Mr. Truly and I says, "Do you know this man, does he work here?" And he said yes, and I turned immediately and went on out up the stairs.
Mr. BELIN - Then you continued up the stairway?
Representative BOGGS -Let me ask one other question. You later, when you recognized this man as Lee Oswald, is that right, saw pictures of him?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir. I had occasion to see him in the homicide office later that evening after we got through with Parkland Hospital and then Love Field and we went back to the City Hall and I went up there and made this affidavit.
Representative BOGGS -After he had been arrested?
Mr. BAKER - Yes, sir.

Mr. BELIN. And then what did you do?
Mrs. REID. Well, I kept walking and I looked up and Oswald was coming in the back door of the office. I met him by the time I passed my desk several feet and I told him, I said, "Oh, the President has been shot, but maybe they didn't hit him."
He mumbled something to me, I kept walking, he did, too. I didn't pay any attention to what he said because I had no thoughts of anything of him having any connection with it at all because he was very calm. He had gotten a coke and was holding it in his hands and I guess the reason it impressed me seeing him in there I thought it was a little strange that one of -the warehouse boys would be up in the office at the time, not that he had done anything wrong. The only time I had seen him in the office was to come and get change and he already had his coke in his hand so he didn't come for change and I dismissed him. I didn't think anything else.
Mr. BELIN. When you saw him, I believe you said you first saw him when he was coming through the door?
Mrs. REID. Yes, sir.
Mr. BELIN. Turning to Exhibit 497, what doorway was it where you first saw him?
Mrs. REID. Right here.
Mr. BELIN. You are pointing to the doorway between numbers 27 and 28?
Mrs. REID. That is right.

Mr. BELIN. Do you remember how long by the stopwatch it took you?
Mrs. REID. Approximately 2 minutes.
Mr. DULLES. I didn't hear you.
Mrs. REID. Two minutes.
Mr. BELIN. From the time of the last shot the time you and Oswald crossed?
Mrs. REID. Yes; I believe that is the way we timed it.

On November 22, Marion Baker tells us that he encountered a man on the third or fourth floor. Nothing about a lunchroom.

Thaks John, yeah, the Oswald encounter as confirmed by Truly and supported by Baker's physical description happened deep inside the building which obviously was not near the front door.

Even in that "bulky" brown shirt instead of who Baker actually encountered wearing a, quoting from his same day affidavit, "a brown jacket", the wrongly accused wouldn't have added over 35lbs to his obvious thin-frame in spite of that "bulky" shirt. Most of us actually see the shirt wearing him.

Alan, there is nothing to argue, Truly saw the EXACT same man and said it was Oswald. Case closed!

And Not this brown shirt/jacket BS again, where are your deductive reasoning skills?, Baker saw Oswald for a few seconds in overwhelming circumstances and was told that the man was an employee so therefore had no reason to commit every insignificant detail to memory.

An unbiased trained professional expert who actually saw Oswald and didn't have to guess from pictures estimated Oswald's weight to be about 150. Try again!

Where in the documentation you shared does it say the body was actually weighed? The reason I ask is people handling deceased bodies have shared that a body appears heavier due to bloating. Again, please share documentation where it states the decedent was actually weighed so we can remove any question of it actually happening as oppose to someone simply reading from an ID, etc. Thank you in advance.

Lest any of us forget, even at that 150lbs it still refutes who Baker actually encountered (not by a give or take 5lbs here or there, but by a whole 15lbs.

We're making positive progress as we go from 35 pounds down to a mere 15 pounds, on an inconsequential employee who was fully clothed and glimpsed for mere seconds.

Btw where does all this history revisionism go, why is it so important to you to deny the lunchroom encounter, what are you trying to prove?

On the contrary, nothing has been conceded. Documentation actually existed on 11/22/63 that the wrongly accused actually weighed 131lbs, that's official documentation. So, one has to wonder how the wrongly accused went from 131lbs on 11/22/63, yet suddenly gained 19lbs in less than 48hrs. Like everything with this hastily contrived script to frame an innocent party the framers got sloppy in their haste. It's that simple really.

So what, do you have a photo on the 11/22/63 of Oswald standing on a scale? And how does that trump an official weight estimation at the actual time of death?

It trumps it because no one is capable of gaining 19lbs in less than 48hrs, unless, of course, you have authentic documentation that suggests otherwise. The wrongly accused according to official documentation weighed 131lbs just two days before his demise.

On the contrary, some of us allow the evidence or lack thereof take us right where we need to be on the side of light, truth and justice. The hastily contrived script fails to stand the test of time amid a much closer examination. It crumbles, whereas the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth is capable of standing all alone by itself (no revisions, no discussions off the record, nor any single question that leads to a thousand more).

Slow down and take a deep breath, you keep making making crazy exaggerations and writing checks that you simply can't afford. I see claim after claim and you still haven't presented any evidence to support any of your allegations, correct me if I'm wrong but you seem to be saying that the 3 people who all saw Oswald on the 2nd floor all lied, where's your proof?

Now, IF anyone dares to share three (3) people who say they saw the wrongly accused on the 2nd floor amid a hastily contrived script, feel free to share their specific names right here within this thread. Under much closer examination what they said and what actually happened prior to the hastily contrived script will reveal them to be the outright liars they are. It's that simple really.

Not side-stepping, Mr. Graves' question, just feel it's a private matter between him and Mr. Iacoletti to come to a sense of resolution about. That said, my apologies, just occurred to me that after I made the assertion that the wrongly accused only weighed 131lbs rather than the much heavier individual Marrion Baker actually encountered, I didn't share a supportive link to substantiate my assertion.

So, here's that official documentation ---->

https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=961#relPageId=389&tab=page

The wrongly accused is nowhere near the same size as the actual MUCH heavier individual Marrion Baker actually encounters Re: his same day affidavit.

Post by: Chris Davidson on June 18, 2020, 08:01:17 AM
Davidson photoshopped a smeared distorted face that looks like a deformed muppet. That is not evidence. You're trying to claim it's a "woman's face" for your preposterous theory. That same deformed muppet face you try to claim is Stanton. That's only your opinion and is not evidence.
Here’s a brief history lesson for those that choose not to remain ignorant of the facts.
Sean Murphy approached me.
He was working on a project in regards to Lovelady/Oswald.
I pointed out there was a person in the shadows.
The source was from the DVD “Death In Dealy Plaza” which I had obtained in 2006.
I copied the DVD for Robin Unger and eventually sent it to him, hence Sean’s reference to him.
No-one from any of the forums knew of this shadow person.
How could they unless they were actually looking in that particular location with a decent Wiegman copy.
That’s why I believe it wasn’t until approx five years later that Sean(advanced his theory) or someone in contact with, followed up with posting prayer man related info.
I used the same PHOTOSHOP process as I used in the Bell film (Charles Hester in a poor quality, shadowed  background-(Groden version) entering the colonnade) to enhance shadow person.
It is now possible to sync Wiegman/Bell for timing purposes in regards to Baker.
At some point, Duncan enhanced one of the two Wiegman frames I already Photoshopped.
That frame(Duncan’s enhanced version) is the one credited to me.
This is incorrect and the ignorant POS’s who don’t understand the provenance should STFU, stop commenting and get their stories straight.
I had no interest in who shadow person was at the time(nor do I care now, only to the extent of trying to enhance that person from the shadows) and was helping Sean out with a project as a fellow researcher.
The same methods were applied to both frames and I commented that the other (not the Duncan selected version) looks like a woman to me.
That would be the first version within the supplied gif in case you’re not good with numbers, Duncan enhanced the last one in the gif.
Enough said.

Brian,
Normally I wouldn’t do this, but in this instance I think it’s justified. (See attachment)
You received the same courtesy that I offered to Sean way back when.
No more-no less.
If you believe that I was referring to you specifically with the POS etc comments, that’s on you.
Any person who has mis-represented which frame I believe “looks like a woman in my opinion”, is who it applies to. That needs to stop and is the reason I responded with the initial posting to begin with.
You have a different opinion regarding the frames.
My position has always been to acquire the best film/photographic material available and if that includes working with people I don’t necessarily agree with pertaining to JFK matters, so be it.
I don’t need to defend jack s__t related to that which I’ve already stated was merely my opinion.
I could care less about some concept of “Best Practices” based on opinion.
You don’t seem to understand that concept.
Why are you concerned with my interactions among other people.
I addressed that and it really isn’t any of your concern
Enough with trying to lull me into the “us vs them” cr__p.
You can choose your own battles but leave me out of them because I don’t care to be involved in that aspect of which I have very little interest.
I have more important items on my schedule that I prefer to engage in, rather than responding to your every whim.
