Bugger, you just beat me!
Usually when taking photos of paper evidence it is secured flat and well lit which makes minor anomalies difficult to distinguish but even under these conditions the back of Oswald's Bus Transfer shows definite signs of being folded. The Pristine Bus Transfer is yet another Urban Legend.

Posted July 31, 2007
In her testimony before the Warren Commission, Mary Bledsoe spoke of meeting Lee Harvey Oswald on October 7, 1963 when he came to rent a room from her.
During her testimony, she said, "
Mrs. BLEDSOE - And so, that give me a lead, something to talk about, and I said, "Well, what kind of work do you do? "Oh, I do electronics," he said, and I said, "Well, there is some good jobs because you are young, and you can get a good job a young man like you."
And then went on. Then something about him being in the Marines, and I said, "Well, that is wonderful. My son was in the Navy." And talking about him, you know, just getting to know him, and--but, "here is a picture of my wife, and picture of the girl, and the baby." And I said, "Oh, she has got a baby, hasn't she?" And he said, "Yes."
http://jfkassassination.net/russ/testimony/bledsoe.htm
The only problem is, Rachel Oswald wasn't born until October 20th.
Was the man seeking to rent a room LHO whose baby hadn't been born yet, or a double agent with a manufactured past?

Testimony Of Mary E. Bledsoe: Vol. VI, p. 400 - Mcadams.posc.mu.edu?

Mrs. BLEDSOE - What day did I make them? Miss DOUTHIT - When Mr. Sorrels and I were talking about her going to Washington, he made the suggestion that she put all the things down on paper because she might forget something, and I said, "Mary, you put everything on a piece of paper so that you can remember it and ...

His work shirt and his arrest shirt were one and the same.
No, that's not true....... Lee went to his room at the rooming house and changed his clothes. Mary Bledsoe said that the shirt he was wearing when she saw him on the bus had a torn or worn hole at the elbow......
We've all seen the photo of Lee holding up his handcuffed arms and there is NO HOLE in the elbow of the arrest shirt.

Above: Photo of the remorseless ferret-like double-murderer Oswald possibly shows the area where the twist occurred on his right sleeve.
Problem with that photo is that the right sleeve of the shirt worn by Oswald is twisted so that the hole would be out of sight.
Unfortunately, that doesn't prove there was a hole in the right sleeve.

Don't you ever get tired of making a fool of yourself by lying when the truth is right before us? You know perfectly well that I referred you to the photo of Lee holding up his handcuffed wrists....
There's no visible cuff button on the right sleeve in that picture, either. Meaning the right sleeve was twisted and the area with the hole wasn't visible.
I can't find any hallway pictures that clearly show that area.
We both know that you Warren Commission apologists have used the photo of Lee with handcuffs on his wrists as proof that he was a socialist giving the "clinched fist " salute.. So don't lie and claim that you don't know of" any hallway pictures that clearly show that area"
In that case, yes, there are hallway pictures that show "Lee with handcuffs on his wrists".
Sorry to have lied about that. ::)
The "clinched fist" photo clearly shows that there was NO HOLE in the elbow of the shirt when Lee Oswald was escorted through the hallway of the police station at about 4:00 pm......
No, that's not true....... Lee went to his room at the rooming house and changed his clothes. Mary Bledsoe said that the shirt he was wearing when she saw him on the bus had a torn or worn hole at the elbow......
We've all seen the photo of Lee holding up his handcuffed arms and there is NO HOLE in the elbow of the arrest shirt.
I don't believe Bledsoe saw Oswald on the bus, at least not on that Friday, and I firmly believe she talked in her testimony about the shirt she had seen Oswald wearing on television after his arrest. The same shirt she was shown and thus could "identify".
McWatters got Oswald confused with Milton Jones.
Oswald was on the Bus.
Bledsoe's second day affidavit is way too accurate for random guesses.
Was it public knowledge that Oswald got on the Bus about Murphy Street?
Was it public knowledge that Oswald got off the Bus after a few blocks?
Was it public knowledge that while the bus was stuck in traffic at the same time as Oswald was on the Bus that a man said the President was shot?
Was it public knowledge that Oswald even caught a Bus?
http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/russ/testimony/bledsoe1.htm
And in Bledsoe's testimony she goes into detail about a woman who also got off at the same time as Oswald who wanted to get to the train station which along with the above Bledsoe recollections can be confirmed by cross referencing with Bus Driver McWatters testimony.

Somebody certainly was.
Mr. JENNER - But, he volunteered the picture of his wife and child?
Mrs. BLEDSOE - Yes; he did that. Showed me that picture.
http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/20316-rd-matthews-from-steve-thomas/
.........
A recently deceased friend, Dallas Attorney Spider Bynum lived across the street
from R.D. Matthews' mother and more or less took care of her in her late years
and kept in touch with R.D. , always by telephone. He flew into Dallas on a
private airplane at 2:10 a.m. the following day after his mother's death, met
with the funeral director at Love Field, completed his business and flew back
to Las Vegas a few hours later.
Spider tried on many occasions to ascertain what R.D. was so frightened of in
Dallas, but he refused to talk about it. I do know Spider, who did a lot of
legal work for the Campisi family and offered to accompany Joe ( Joseph) Campisi
to Washington when he was called to test ify before the House Select Committee
on Assassinations . Joe told him it was not necessary, but if R.D. Matthews was
called, he sure might need him and may never see Dallas again.
Spider swore to the day he died, R.D. Matthews was somehow involved in Kennedy's
assassination, I guess we will never know now.
Funny how evil people live so damn long---------------- "

So Milton Jones and the bus driver, McWatters both said that the guy they saw was wearing a blue jacket. Bledsoe, on the same bus, said that "Oswald' was wearing brown shirt with a hole in the sleeve.
Sumtink stinks.
Ray, where are you getting that McWatters said that the guy he saw was wearing a blue jacket?
Apologies. Its was Whaley, the taxi driver, who said "Oswald" had a blue jacket on. McWatters, the taxi driver, said "he (Oswald) had on, I believe, some type of jacket, cloth jacket. "
Just correcting my earlier statement. I said that Robert Barrett described the shirt that Oswald had on as a brown jacket. I now believe that I was mistaken. It was Bardwell Odum, not Barrett, who gave that description. He described it as a reddish brown jacket. Marrion Baker also described the shirt as being a brown jacket.
"Marrion Baker also described the shirt as being a brown jacket."
Marion Baker said he was wearing a light brown jacket when he saw him in the TSBD.
He said he was wearing different clothes when he saw him in the DPD a couple hours later.
Not really.
Mr. BELIN - What about when you saw him in the School Book Depository Building, does this look familiar as anything he was wearing, if you know?
Mr. BAKER - I couldn't say whether that was--it seemed to me it was a light-colored brown but I couldn't say it was that or not.
............
Mr. BELIN - Was he wearing anything that looked like Exhibit 150 at the police station?
Mr. BAKER - He did have a brown-type shirt on that was out.
Mr. BELIN - Did it appear to be similar to any clothing you had seen when you saw him at the School Book Depository Building?
Mr. BAKER - I could have mistaken it for a jacket, but to my recollection it was a little colored jacket, that is all I can say.
(http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae75/garcra/baker4a.jpg)
Mr. DULLES - Do you recall whether or not he was wearing the same clothes, did he appear to you the same when you saw him in the police station as when you saw him in the lunchroom?
Mr. BAKER - Actually just looking at him, he looked like he didn't have the same thing on.
Mr. BELIN - He looked as though he did not have the same thing on?
Mr. BAKER - He looked like he did not have the same on.
Mr. BELIN - What about when you saw him in the School Book Depository Building, does this look familiar as anything he was wearing, if you know?

O'Connor's much earlier recollection and signed diagram takes precedence over statements made to Law. That O'Connor would think that the bullet entering above C7 would have come out through JFK's heart and through his sternum suggests that he was definitely on the downslope as far as his mental faculties were concerned.
hypocrite
He really did, actually, as he did in his AFFIDAVIT and saw no reason to correct that when viewing Oswald at CH because he didn't recognize Oswald as the guy he saw on the 3rd or 4th floor. Or did he?
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.
You may want to rephrase that question.
CE 150 is not a jacket, as previously pointed out to you by Gary.
What part of but to my recollection it was a little colored jacket, that is all I can say. do you not understand?
But there was no reason to write "jacket" when he saw Oswald in a shirt that was out at the Police Station:
Mr. BELIN - Was he wearing anything that looked like Exhibit 150 at the police station?
Mr. BAKER - He did have a brown-type shirt on that was out.
He could also have corrected his weight estimate that was 30 pounds over...
(1) seeing the shirt as a jacket is only relevant if Oswald wore the arrest shirt CE 150 at work . Do you have evidence he did?
(2) Whaley had a couple of goes at his affidavit and even details of the lineup were later added so who would prevent Baker from amending his affidavit?
(3) I see that Occam razors are not in high demand at the moment: Baker didn't describe Oswald. There was no mistaken jacket and there was no need to correct his affidavit because he didn't recognize Oswald at the homicide office.
The WC testimony of Mary Bledsoe and the bus transfer found inside the shirt pocket.
You're going to have to be more specific about what you mean by later. Were details added to the affidavit after Whaley had already signed it? That seems to be what you're suggesting. If not, then Whaley did not have a couple of goes at his affidavit.
How have you concluded that Baker didn't recognize Oswald at the homicide office?
Mr. BELIN - Would you state whether or not the man who was shown to you in the police station as Lee Harvey Oswald was or was not the same man that you saw and encountered on the second floor lunchroom of the Texas School Book Depository Building on that day?
Mr. BAKER - He was the same man.
The WC testimony of Mary Bledsoe
The only witness who was shown the actual evidence she was required to testify about (the shirt Oswald was wearing when he was arrested) at her home just prior to her deposition. That Mary Bledsoe?
Yup. That Mary Bledsoe. Why do you ask?
Do you need to ask?
Do you need to ask?
Yes, I did... You, not really.
Prove it.
Prove what?
The WC testimony of Mary Bledsoe
The only witness who was shown the actual evidence she was required to testify about (the shirt Oswald was wearing when he was arrested) at her home just prior to her deposition. That Mary Bledsoe?
Mary Bledsoe positively identified the shirt well before her deposition. Well before she was ever asked to give a deposition actually. She was shown the shirt on Dec 4, 1963 by two FBI agents and was able to positively identify it for them. She did not receive notification that she was required to appear before the Commission until March 1964.
::)
(http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae75/garcra/tippitm1.gif)
How could Bledsoe have seen a hole in Oswald Brown shirt when it was underneath his jacket that Mcwatters said he had on?
Ah, McWatters thought that the shirt looked like a jacket as well? That's three. Baker, Odum and Mcwatters. I wonder if there are any others.

Where did Odum see Oswald wearing either the arrest shirt or a jacket?
And how do you know McWatters really saw a shirt and not a jacket?
In her testimony she was at best cryptic about the identification of the shirt. She recognized it as the shirt "secret service" men showed her in her home and as the shirt Oswald was wearing before he was shot. Even Ball had difficulty believing her;
Mr. BALL - In order to convince me that you did see it before you've got to tell me what there is about it that is the same, you see. Now, you try to convince me, or tell me why it is that you believe that this is the shirt that Oswald had on when you saw him on the bus?
Mrs. BLEDSOE - Well, I would say it was. That hole---
Mr. BALL ? Mostly the hole in the right sleeve?
Mrs. BLEDSOE ? Yes.
The problem is she saw the hole in the sleeve when the shirt was shown to her in her home.
A brown jacket eh?
Ah, McWatters thought that the shirt looked like a jacket as well? That's three. Baker, Odum and Mcwatters. I wonder if there are any others.
Yeah, because Markham (who's Helen Marsille?) was totally looking at the jacket in a display case inside a museum.

You just illustrated the exact point I was making.
I quoted the post of you saying Helen Markham positively identified the brown shirt LHO was allegedly
wearing along with the same day affidavit from officer Poe quoting Markham's description of Tippit's
killer wearing a brown jacket. Your knee jerk reaction is to post a dimly lit picture of a white jacket
that insinuates Markham was wrong about Tippit's killer's jacket.
When it suits the LN did it narrative it's a positive ID.
When it contradicts the official line the witness is mistaken.
Classic!
Gary, you are confused. I never said that Helen Markham positively identified the brown shirt LHO was wearing. I said that Mary Bledsoe positively identified brown shirt LHO was wearing.
You're right. I went back and corrected the name.
The point I was making stands though.
What was the point you were making?
(https://i.imgur.com/yZvyiNX.png)
I was gonna say quit playing stupid ....... . . . .
Point is:
Witnesses whose observations support the WC narrative make positive ID's in LN fantasyland.
While witnesses who contradict the narrative are mistaken or mentally incompetent.
I quoted your post claiming Mary Bledsoe positively ID'd the brown shirt LHO was allegedly
wearing. I included the 11/22/63 affidavit from officer Poe that has Helen Markham describing Tippit's
killer wearing a brown jacket. You immediately posted a dimly lit picture of a white jacket in a museum
case that insinuates Markham was mistaken about the color of the jacket.
Classic

You call that white? ???
(http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae75/garcra/tippitm1.gif)
This you tube video of the "white jacket" was taken at the time it was found and in the same light Markham
saw Tippit's killer wearing a "brown jacket".
Notice how the vehicles seen in that video all appear to be white? Also, what color was the uniform of that DPD officer?
The film showing the jacket was taken at a different time and at a different location than when and where Markham viewed it. The lighting may have differed considerably.

Huh? You are aware that it is a black and white video, right?
The film showing the jacket was taken at a different time and at a different location than when and where Markham viewed it. The lighting may have differed considerably.
Now I know you are not being serious. Are you really claiming that the sunlight was different from street to street?
It's a black and white video? Really? Gee Martin, thanks for pointing that out. ::)
(https://s17.postimg.org/c19c1f99r/Oswaldsjacketlighterdarkerz_zpsb85ca9ed.jpg)
Btw... when the officer who called in the jacket as being white saw it, was it walking around like the guy in those pictures?
When Markham saw the jacket at East Tenth and Patton was it blowing around in the wind like it was in that video?
You are missing the point on purpose, aren't you?
What is the point?
Now I know you are not being serious. Are you really claiming that the sunlight was different from street to street?
Really? Are you perhaps asking because you are not paying attention?
What's the point of posting photos of a guy walking through areas with shade and sunlight when the police officer who called in the jacket as being white saw it in one location only?
Perhaps your next argument will be that there was no sunlight at the parking lot where the jacket was found
Btw.. you never addressed my point that the officer calling in the discovery of the jacket said that the jacket the killer was wearing was believed to be white. Don't you think he would have double checked to make sure that the jacket that was found was also white?
Martin, it seems that you're not the one paying attention here. Your mind has wandered on you. Mrs. Markham's description of the jacket. Remember that? Where was she at the time? Where was the jacket at that time? Was it in full blazing sunlight?
The point of posting photos of a guy walking through areas with shade and sunlight is to demonstrate that the jacket he had on can appear to be white when in full sunlight and brown or tan when in shaded areas.
To Griffin, the jacket appeared to be white. When he called in the discovery of what they believed to be the suspect's white jacket, he was going by the description of the suspect that had been called in to Dispatch by Patrolman R.W. Walker at 1:22.
"We have a description on this suspect over here on Jefferson. Last seen about 300 block of East Jefferson. He's a white male, about thirty, five eight, black hair, slender, wearing white jacket, a white shirt and dark slacks."
Martin, it seems that you're not the one paying attention here. Your mind has wandered on you. Mrs. Markham's description of the jacket. Remember that? Where was she at the time? Where was the jacket at that time? Was it in full blazing sunlight?
Tim, you need to read the previous posts again. When you do, you will find that I never mentioned Markham anywhere. You and I were discussing the jacket being found at the parking lot.
"Now I know you are not being serious. Are you really claiming that the sunlight was different from street to street?"
But, I'll answer your question nevertheless. It was a sunny afternoon in all of Dallas and to argue that the amount of sunlight was different from street to street is just plain stupid. The sun does not discriminate between streets and the shooting took place when the sun was just about at it's highest position. There can, however, be more shade in one location as the other because of objects blocking the sun, and in a street as 10th there were indeed trees that would provide shade in some areas. It may well have been that the shade could have made the jacket appear darker than it really was, but then again it may just as well be that she did indeed see a brown jacket in full sunlight.
The point of posting photos of a guy walking through areas with shade and sunlight is to demonstrate that the jacket he had on can appear to be white when in full sunlight and brown or tan when in shaded areas.
Nobody is disputing that, but we were talking about the parking lot and parking lots tend to be large open spaces. It would be a bit difficult to park a car there if they weren't, don't you think? But where as a bit a shade might let a jacket appear darker than it really was, I don't believe for a second that one would get the color wrong by seeing a jacket in one location and in bright sunlight.
To Griffin, the jacket appeared to be white. When he called in the discovery of what they believed to be the suspect's white jacket, he was going by the description of the suspect that had been called in to Dispatch by Patrolman R.W. Walker at 1:22.
"We have a description on this suspect over here on Jefferson. Last seen about 300 block of East Jefferson. He's a white male, about thirty, five eight, black hair, slender, wearing white jacket, a white shirt and dark slacks."
How do you know what Griffin was going by?
But never mind, you are making my point for me. If Griffin believed the killer was wearing a white jacket, and he sees a jacket that is found at a brightly lit parking lot, he will want to make sure to check it is indeed white before he calls it in as the presumed jacket of the killer, right? And, indeed, to Griffin who saw the jacket in bright sunlight it appeared to be white.....
Martin, I referred to Markham and her viewing of the jacket in the post that you first responded to on this. Here it is again:
The film showing the jacket was taken at a different time and at a different location than when and where Markham viewed it. The lighting may have differed considerably.
Your response was:
As I said, your mind has wandered on you here.
You've just contradicted yourself in a single paragraph. "to argue that the amount of sunlight was different from street to street is just plain stupid" vs "It may well have been that the shade could have made the jacket appear darker than it really was"
The stills in the graphic put together by John Mytton would beg to differ.
What else would he be going by?
How do you know that Griffin would have bothered to double check on the color of the jacket before reporting it's discovery to dispatch? The jacket appeared to be white to him . He wasn't risking his job by reporting on what he saw and believed.

Wow, what a detour on that speculation bus with Bledsoe having her answers written down prior to being interviewed!
Just to remind you: I asked about evidence of Oswald wearing the arrest shirt at work, meaning the TSBD.
Tony, you stole my REID move ;-)
The only way out for a true LN fanatic is to fabricate yet another absurdity, it deserves to be highlighted:
I doubt Richard Smith will ever top that one!

Amazing guy, that Oswald...
He is supposed to have been in the sniper's nest at 12:15 yet BRW does not see or hear him. Witnesses see a man dressed in light clothing, so LNs think he must have removed his shirt. However, fibers of that shirt allegedly get stuck on the rifle. Instead of concentrating on the - already running late - motorcade arriving at any time, he finds the time to observe and track Norman and Jarman as they make their way to the back of the building. Could be important, right? Then, after firing the rifle, he is supposed to have run down the stairs, where he isn't seen by at least two girls who are known to have been on the stairs post shots or anybody else for that matter and when he is seen by Truly and Baker at the 2nd floor lunchroom, less than 90 seconds later, he is suddenly wearing his shirt again. But not for long, because as he leaves the building he takes it off again and hides it from view from Mrs. Reid only to put it back on for Bledsoe to see it on the bus.
Wow... just wow
Speaking of amazing, how about the two speedsters in their three-inch-heeled shoes? Victoria Adams and Sandra Styles. They managed to get from their window on the fourth floor down to the first floor in 45 seconds or less. Dem ladies sure was sumptin.

But not for long, because as he leaves the building he takes it off again and hides it from view from Mrs. Reid only to put it back on for Bledsoe to see it on the bus.
Wow... just wow
Amazing guy, that Oswald...
He is supposed to have been in the sniper's nest at 12:15 yet BRW does not see or hear him. Witnesses see a man dressed in light clothing, so LNs think he must have removed his shirt. However, fibers of that shirt allegedly get stuck on the rifle. Instead of concentrating on the - already running late - motorcade arriving at any time, he finds the time to observe and track Norman and Jarman as they make their way to the back of the building.

No, that's not correct.... The tuft of fibers that the FBI found on the butt of the carcano matched the ARREST shirt...... Lee had gone to his room and changed clothes.... He had removed the dark brown shirt (not light colored khaki) that he had been wearing at the TSBD and put on a clean shirt before going to the theater.
Wow... just wow
The notion that fantasy conspirators somehow faked Oswald's presence on the bus is among one of the more puzzling CTers claims (which is saying a great deal). Why would they fake a bus trip that takes Oswald nowhere? Imagine the risk for no apparent gain. Let's assume they faked the bus ride to cover up some other means that Oswald gets to his boarding house. How do they know the bus gets stuck in traffic? How do they arrange a fake cab ride? Why bother if they wanted Oswald to be caught or killed in the aftermath? How would they know they could convince those on a random bus to confirm, or at least not contradict, Oswald's presence? The bus ride to nowhere is ludicrous as part of planned event as it achieves no real objective, entails significant risk, and requires real-time knowledge of the bus, its passengers etc.
They managed to get from their window on the fourth floor down to the first floor in 45 seconds or less.
Did they?
Meanwhile back to the bus.....why would someone walk 6 or 7 blocks while observing obviously stalled traffic... board this particular bus and then get off because it's not going anywhere?

Before you jump the gun, please first explain why Oswald who already had trouble finding a job and only got the TSBD job because he lied, left the building within 3 minutes of the assassination?

Thumb1:
'jump the gun'
Good one... a perfect description of Iacoletti, who seems to have a need to try the case separately, on every single tree, while ignoring the forest. CTers conveniently ignore the fact that cases cannot be tried piecemeal; they need to be tried on the accumulated evidence.
I have high confidence that a reasonable person can see that the accumulated circumstantial evidence would be worthy of being accepted as such at trial. It has been shown to my satisfaction that these many pieces regarding, for example, Oswald's first-time-ever actions (in several incidences) that day amount to more than mere coincidence.
A house burns down and the owner of the house, who is only two blocks away and is a heavy smoker, just happens to have a lighter on him.... now isn't that a coincidence?
No one kook has ever explained why the conspirators would go to such great pains and risk to create a fake scenario that puts Oswald on a bus that goes nowhere. If it had taken him to his boardinghouse and was being used to cover up some other movement like one of the conspirators driving him there, that would be one thing (but open up the question as to why the conspirators would assist or care about what Oswald does in the aftermath of the assassination). But it didn't. It is silly and improbable in any planned narrative context to create a fake scenario that does nothing to advance the plot. Oswald was on the bus to nowhere. The transfer proves it beyond any doubt.

Like you know when he left the building.

That's interesting?
Was the man observed carrying into his neighbours house a lighter sized packag which he later lied about?
Was the lighter found in the house with the mans prints and matching shirt fibers?
Did the man have no alibi?
Were the mans prints found were the ignition started?
Was the man seen leaving just minutes later?
Did the man get on a bus then get off a bus then catch a taxi?
Did the man get out of the taxi wayyy past his house?
Was the man observed killing a cop?
Did the man resist arrest and try and kill another cop?
Too bad most of these things don't apply to Oswald either.

Try to keep up John, events don't happen in a vacuum, Oswald walked/ran up Elm street, Oswald caught a bus, Oswald got off the bus, Oswald walked/ran to the cab stand, Oswald traveled wayyy past his rooming house, Oswald was seen about 1PM by the housekeeper. Do the Math!
You said yourself John, that all the evidence points to Oswald.
How about "Richard" explaining what being on a bus has to do with who killed the president?
Dishonestly quoting somebody out of context is just another lie by omission. As usual, you should be ashamed.
What little evidence there is, is weak, circumstantial, and tainted.

Are you joking, Oswald's frenzied flight from the scene of the crime is classic consciousness of guilt.
Well Johnny boy I wasn't the only one, your initial post on the subject was also noted by Caprio and your argument and subsequent weak attempt to defend yourself from the above comment went on for weeks.
Sure, "Mytton". What does that have to do with you dishonestly quoting me out of context?
The whole point that you conveniently ignored is that your initial post couldn't have been very clear if Caprio came to the same conclusion as me and Caprio like a dog with a bone gave you a right chewing out.
Funny that Caprio is suddenly your best buddy now after the way you've treated him.
I have to take issue with the term "frenzied flight". According to the cab driver he offered his cab to a lady and was willing to wait.
I have to take issue with the term "frenzied flight".
So you don't take into account his leaving the building immediately, beating on the bus doors in the middle of the street, while the bus wasn't at a bus stop, obviously panicking when the bus was stalled and got off and then jumped in a cab,
And don't forget that Oswald didn't stop at the rooming house but drove several blocks past, why would he do that?
If all was as hunky dory as your deliberate incuriousity influences you to present .... Oswald = LN assassin, why
are a suprising number of things going unanswered, out of kilter? I am sorry if examples such as this do not occur to
you or cause you any concern.
Is this a matter of fact description accurately and relevently presenting John Connally family background,
considering Bobby Hale testified he attempted to slap away from Connally's daughter's head, the 20 ga. shotgun barrell
Bobby testified his wife Kathleen Connally Hale was encountered by him, aiming at her own head, just as she was pulling the trigger of?
And a WC exhibit reports Bobby's mother Virginia Hale of Fortune Rd., Fort Worth, and the Texas State Employment office as
contacting Oswald in 1962 to advise him of a job opening at Leslie Welding. May 13, 1964: https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh22/pdf/WH22_CE_1389.pdf
And a 1962 FBI Los Angeles stakeout report described Bobby Hale and his twin brother forcing illegal entry into the apartment of Judith Exner and soon driving away in a Chevy Corvette with a Texas plate assigned to their father, director of security at General Dynamics and a former FBI agent.

The example wiki bio page was edited to remove any of the controversies I described above it.
Your demeanor and the sanitized article example are artificial constructs. One reliable result is they are both unreasonable
reactions, flying in the face of facts. At least some of the "kooks" are sincere, reasonable, honest people.
Is there anything relevant here to my question regarding why the conspirators would to go to the time and risk of faking Oswald's appearance on a bus that goes nowhere?
Is there anything relevant here to my question regarding why the conspirators would to go to the time and risk of faking Oswald's appearance on a bus that goes nowhere? All compulsive nuts are sincere in their delusions. I never questioned that. In fact it is one of the symptoms of kookdom. Becoming obsessed with minutia such as the above and flying off in every direction.
Bledsoe's second day affidavit is way too accurate for random guesses.
Was it public knowledge that Oswald got on the Bus about Murphy Street?
Was it public knowledge that Oswald got off the Bus after a few blocks?
Was it public knowledge that while the bus was stuck in traffic at the same time as Oswald was on the Bus that a man said the President was shot?
Was it public knowledge that Oswald even caught a Bus?
http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/russ/testimony/bledsoe1.htm
And in Bledsoe's testimony she goes into detail about a woman who also got off at the same time as Oswald who wanted to get to the train station which along with the above Bledsoe recollections can be confirmed by cross referencing with Bus Driver McWatters testimony.

"two police officers boarded the bus and checked each passenger to see if any were carrying firearms"
This shows that the Dallas police were in the habit of doing illegal searches. Oswald stood up for his rights and paid the price.
Also, is there any record of any other buses being searched that day? What made the police zero in on that particular bus, heading towards the crime scene?

So what did LHO lie about on his TSBD application? Be specific.
Another Iacoletti deception, where did I say or even imply that Caprio was my "best buddy"?

You mean that I'm not? LOL.
I misunderstood Iacoletti back then. We both agree that the evidence in the twenty-six volumes does not convict LHO of the crimes he was accused of, but we don't always see things the same way and that is okay.
Only LNers walk in a lock step fashion.

Okay. This is why Truly should have checked him out. Why didn't he? What was the rush? LHO said that on a number of occasions he lost a chance at a job because they were informed of his defection. Why wasn't Truly contacted about this?
Why wasn't Truly contacted about this?
Fair enough, that was a time when Iacoletti attacked everyone but upon realizing that this tact was damaging his credibility he instead went full on Kook forgot his pledge to neutrality and only attacked the LNers.
Oswald was discharged in 1959.
