We know that Lee Oswald was in the theater....  We know that all of the people who encountered him said that he was just calm and normal acting.   EXCEPT Johnny Brewer who did not know Lee Oswald said that the man that he saw was acting "scared" and "nervous" 

Question:    Can you explain why Lee would suddenly become scared ?..... He showed no signs of being frightened when Marrion Baker encountered him drinking a coke in the second floor lunchroom which was just seconds after the murder of JFK.   Do you suppose that maybe the guy that Brewer saw was not Lee Oswald?

Could we have a serious discussion about Johnny Brewer's tale?....  Something smells a bit fishy about his story.....

From an earlier post---
Quote
Brewer, a manager at a shoe store located about 90 steps from the Oak Cliff neighborhood theater, was listening to news reports about the president's assassination when he heard reports that a Dallas police officer, J.D. Tippit, had just been killed a few blocks away. A man whose behavior seemed suspicious then walked into the foyer of the shoe store. Brewer said the man stared at the display in the window and acted scared as police cars with blaring sirens raced by.

Brewer lied plain and simple. His "honors' are based on fraud. KLIF...KBOX...KRLD..WFAA..WBAP Dallas radio broadcasts of Nov 22 1963 12:30 onward were all recorded and available on youtube. One can listen for themselves.
The uninformed disbelievers can do nothing but scatter the straw on this one.
See how the story went? Brewer was so involved with claims of his heroism that the facts didn't matter. Brewer 'helped catch' no one. Tippit wasn't reported DEAD on any radio station until 2:30PM or so. He was only reported SHOT after Oswald had already been arrested.
By now this smells a lot more than "a little fishy" ..It smells like a sewer full of dead fish.

Yes, I completely agree, Jerry......  Brewer lied plain and simple....   But WHY??    WHO wanted him to concoct the tale?    I'd guess it was an FBI agent, who told him to tell the tale about seeing a "frightened man" walk by his store and duck into the theater.   Everybody who knew Lee Oswald by sight said that he appeared completely normal after 12:30 that afternoon.   Starting with Roy Truly who encountered Lee in the second floor lunch room just seconds after the murder.....Truly said that lee looked normal, but possibly a bit startled by the sudden appearance of a big motorcycle cop who was holding a revolver in his hand.

Thats not true. And you know its not true.

His old landlady Mary Bledsoe saw him on the bus and said he looked "like a maniac".

She did not say that he appeared completely normal.

I'm sorry Mr Sheilds.... But I don't believe Mrs Bledsoe was a rational witness.... I strongly suspect that she was suffering from Alzheimers ..... 

You're free to believe anything you want, but if you're honest with yourself and study Mrs Bledsoe....I'm sure that you'll find that she was rowing with only one oar in the water.

Start with the statements on her obviously concocted and convoluted sworn affidavit....
First ..she states that a man ducked into the theater as the police drove by.
Second..Postal said that her boss [John Callahan] jumped into his car and chases the police ???
I have noted in the past that it was never reported that Mr Callahan ever returned to his theater that was invaded by law enforcement authorities from all over Dallas. Does that strike anyone else as odd? At least extremely curious? What ever happened to Mr Callahan?
Third...back to Julia--As she stepped to the curb [by the way not telling Mr Callahan that a man just sneaked into his theater] she "turned around and saw Johnny Brewer" [who she apparently knew] who asked "did she sell that man a ticket" to which she replied "what man?" ::)
Well, by golly---Brewere would go look for him.
How long would it have taken for Brewer [who seemed more concerned about the sneaker-in than anyone else] to have gone in and searched around for this guy and come back out to give a didn't see him report to Postal?
Next..the individual that Postal mused earlier "what man" becomes a likely fugitive she decided :-\
Further...Julia takes charge and has Warren Burroughs [an usher or THE usher?] and Brewer re-enter the theater and do a thorough search this time. How long would this have taken? Brewer returns and reports that "he just wasn't there" :(
Taking absolute command, Postal orders Brewer and Warren to guard the exits...she would call the cops. She calls the police and "some woman answers" but then..disregarding this woman's gender equality, Postal wants to speak to an "officer". Amazing that over the probable hundreds of calls going into the police switchboard at the time she got through anyway. Maybe she had a hotline 8) This time it's definite...her subject is on the run. He ducked in! Why would the officer ask "did he buy a ticket?" Who buys a ticket and then sneaks in? Maybe he vanished after this. No her "woman's intuition" told her he was still there. She "called the projectionist" [I didn't get his name...did anyone?]
Mrs Postal said that she gave the officer a description of this man that she didn't see. She said that "in a minute or two" officers came in-- motorcycle officers...squad car officers...plain clothes officers...carrying rifles and shotguns. Gee that was fast :o
Strange but Julia didn't mention that the cops would show her this guy they nabbed and ask her "is this your guy?"
They had their man...call it cops intuition  ;D

Thanks for the wealth of information that poses many questions....

 Brewer [who seemed more concerned about the sneaker-in than anyone else] GOOD POINT!..... Why was Brewer so damned obsessed with the sneaker?
We now know that He couldn't have known about the shooting of Tippit at that time.... So what the hell was he so concerned about??

Brewer returns and reports that "he just wasn't there" :(   Taking absolute command, Postal orders Brewer and Warren to guard the exits...she would call the cops.

Really??....   Brewer tells Julie that the man IS NOT IN THE THEATER , But she tells Brewer to block the exits while she calls the police to report a man who Brewer had just told her was NOT IN THE THEATER???  Do you know if Julie smoked the wacky weed?

You can't pick and choose whatever testimony might support your Oswald did it belief. Then what about the --after the bus story ...that Oswald calmly walked up and caught a taxi even offering a woman the cab if she wanted it? Why not address the subject above instead of sundering off into a strawman rabbit hole?

I believe this bit of the tale is an invention of the conspirators.   It was invented to lend credence to Whaley's tale.....
