To put this issue into an easier to interpret format, I made a GIF of the Darnell film and as can be seen, the Motorbike cop who is Haygood is on the move and covering a lot of ground quickly, and the other Police Officer who is supposedly Harkness isn't stationary but simply came up to the bollard boundary and turned around and equally moved away at speed.
And let's remember that Dealey Plaza isn't very big and the distance covered by Haygood wasn't very far and easily achievable in a couple of minutes.  I think it was Charles in an earlier post, calculated the distance that Haygood travelled to be about 700 feet which is a little over 2 football fields, so yeah, not very far at all. Just checkout how fast Haygood is moving in the following GIF!

It's like the Tippit shooting, Oswald had enough time to reach Tippit and they both arrived at Patton and Tenth at the same time and likewise here, Haygood had enough time to do his round and arrive back at his bike to make his call.

After rereading the entirety of the relevant posts, this entire "mystery" relies on self serving timing interpretations, Royell's initial four minute Haygood timeline to reach the top of the Triple Underpass is the obvious example of one of his exaggerations and it all goes downhill from there.

   You've missed the KEY timeline involved. The dagger. That is the Officer Harkness timeline. Harkness details this in his WC Testimony. Harkness made a documented 12:36 police radio transmission. He basically said that he had a witness/Euins and that he was bringing him to the TSBD. (Martin Film). Harkness then helped load the witness/Euins into Inspector Sawyer's car which was parked in front of the TSBD. At this point, Harkness was instructed to secure the back of the TSBD.
 
    Recap  ***   12:36 - Harkness makes radio transmission saying "here I come".  12:37 - Harkness helps load Euins into Inspector Sawyer's car. 12:38 - Harkness is filmed with "Haygood?" behind the TSBD.
     It is physically impossible for Darnell to have  filmed Haygood with Harkness behind the TSBD. At 12:35, Haygood made a transmission from his motorcycle near the Triple Underpass. Haygood then stayed there interviewing witnesses. Couch documented Haygood remaining close to his motorcycle, when he filmed his 2nd trip down Elm St. Haygood is included in that 2nd Elm St run that was filmed by Couch. "The Nutty Professor" has also proffered a photo showing Harkness near his motorcycle during this same time period. We are Not seeing Officer Haygood with Officer Harkness on the Darnell Film. That motorcycle cop is not Haygood. It's physically impossible for Haygood to be in 2 different places at the same time.

    John -    "To Kill A Mockingbird" was scored by Elmer Bernstein.  He also scored "The Magnificent Seven" and kinda reprise'd that for his scoring of, "The Sons Of Katie Elder".  My favorite Duke Wayne flick. I was surprised to find out that your favorite Johnny Williams scored "The Cowboys". Another Duke movie that I would include in my personal "Duke Top 5" movie list. That speaks well for Williams, that he was capable of scoring that genre way back when.
                  Thanks for posting the Umbrella Man water pitcher still frame. Most people would have simply done a White Wash visual aid barrage. I appreciate your fairness.

It's interesting that out of all the advances in film making, the orchestral score hasn't changed much in the past 60-70 years. And yeah, along with Williams, Goldsmith, Howard Shore, Zimmer, Giacchino and Poledouris, I'd rank Bernstein right up there.

My favorite Duke film was one he wasn't even the main character which is The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, also my favorite western of all. Of the ones in which he was the main character, my favorite was the Shootist which was also his last and somewhat autobiographical. Both movies co-starred Jimmy Stewart. Of his non-westerns, my favorite was Sands of Iwo Jima.

   Liberty Valance should have been filmed in color. Especially with the "cactus rose" theme. Personally, the B/W downgrades that movie to me. Same goes for Duke's cavalry flicks. B/W = bland. Color is exactly why "The Searchers" visually "pops". "The Searchers" captures these same general locales but does so in Color.

  The "Three Tramps" photos were 2+ hrs after the kill shot. Not remotely close to the time of the assassination. And, the "Three Tramps" were found inside a BOX CAR, not a PASSENGER TRAIN CAR.
   You think the the impostor, "did the job of a police officer"? I guess he fooled you too. By paralleling Walthers and Craig, he gave them the false impression that he had the "securing" of the string of passenger train cars under control. Walthers and Roger Craig never made a move in the direction of those passenger train cars. Which is why this imposture was positioned back there. "Crowd Control" inside Dealey Plaza on 11/22/63 included keeping law enforcement under "control".

Did you even watch the entire video or will you just take a tiny slice out of context??


Louie Steven Witt throughout the entire video gestures with his right hand. And the majority of the time fidgets with his glasses while simultaneously gesturing using his right hand.



As for the water pitcher, take careful note of the position of Witt, he's centered on the sizable microphone and also observe the location of the water pitcher on Witt's left.



And as is plain to see, the ergonomics of reaching across himself through the centralized microphone would be incredibly awkward so Witt naturally pours himself a glass of water with his left hand, a simple act of co-ordination that he no doubt mastered since being a child.



BTW it's ironic that you'd allude to a fictional defence attorney, perhaps next time you'd be better off seeking assistance from a "Vincent Bugliosi" who would look at the entirety of a man's behaviour and would not attempt to build an entire case from a singular explainable action.

I would say the first visible sign of Connally in distress occurs at Zapruder Frame 223.

As well as a slight change in Connally's Facial expression, and Irrespective of Zapruder's Camera Jitter, you can see the gap space between his Jacket Lapel and his Neck Tie increase dramatically.



I think trying to read facial expressions with such a low resolution camera, even when the frames are enlarged, is an exercise in educated guessing. The movement of the shoulders at Z225 is a bit more pronounced but that could be the physical force of the bullet or it could be a reflexive response. Either seems plausible to me. JBC had started rotating his torso back toward the front just before the single bullet struck so his shoulders were already in motion when we see the dip at Z225. What is clear is that we see both men's arms start moving upward at Z226. I have no doubt this is a reflexive response to the single bullet. JBC's right arm continues in a rapid up and down movement that lasts for 9 frames, about a half second, before it disappears below the side of the car. I don't know how anybody can look at that and conclude anything but it being a reflexive response to the bullet hitting his wrist, especially given it is the same frame JFK's arms start upward.

JFK Assassination Plus General Discussion And Debate / Re: U.S. Politics
« Last post by John Corbett on Yesterday at 12:45:44 PM »
The fact remains that Vladimir Putin, the "former" KGB counterintelligence officer who murdered 307 of his own citizens in the 1999 Russian Apartment Bombings so that he could reinvade Chechnya and become president, began to interfere in our 2016 election in 2014, and went to great lengths during the following two years to do so. The Trump Campaign at the very least welcomed his help, and some of its associates, like Roger Stone and his newfound pro-Russia buddy, Harley Schlanger, evidently conspired with the Russians to get it done.

You mean like Hillary welcoming the help from the Steele Dossier.

If Putin began his meddling in 2014, it could not be to help Trump because he didn't declare his candidacy until 2015 and even then, few people took him seriously. It was only after he began winning primaries that people began to realize he was for real. Putin likely expected Hillary to be the nominee as did most people in the US. All you have shown is that Putin and Trump had a common foe which is not surprising because nobody likes Hillary, not even Bill.

That's not correct, John. Governor Connally's first visible signs of distress occur in Z225 (facial distortion; his mouth opens; and, most significant, the flinching shoulders--a surefire "reflex action" to an external stimulus).


I would say the first visible sign of Connally in distress occurs at Zapruder Frame 223.
