Virginia Davis puts the time of the shooting as between 1:30pm to 2:00pm

Mrs. DAVIS. I saw the policeman lying on the street.
Mr. BELIN. All right. Did you see or do anything else? Did you see anyone else that you know come up to the policeman?
Mrs. DAVIS. No sir; there was a lot of people around there.
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember about what time of day this was?
Mrs. DAVIS. I wouldn't say for sure. But it was about 1:30, between 1:30 and 2.

Despite presenting proof I am confident he had read, David Von Pein ignored my discovery Virginia Davis lied about her age to DPD in November, 1963 (she claimed she was age 16 while birth records show she was not age 16 until June, 1964) and in her WC testimony in April of the following year.:

(Sister-in-law Barbara admittedly witnessed much less than Virginia.)
......

Virginia Ruth Wilbanks d.o.b. June 24, 1948....her daddy had a rather distinctive name. Her husband, Charley Davis was of the tender age 27 when he married 15 years old Virginia.

I wonder how may of the Tippit shooting witnesses are still alive?

Are Virginia Davis (who i think was only 16 at the time) and Domingo Benavides (who i think was in his 20's at the time) still alive?

Perhaps Jack Tatum might still be alive too.

Speaking of Domingo Benevides, does anyone know where i can find any FBI or DPD statements he made about what he saw?

I can only find his WC testimony at archives.gov here: https://catalog.archives.gov/id/7460365

I'd like to know what he was saying in the days and weeks after the Tippit shooting.
