He didn't know Oswald's name at the time of the shooting. That was his point.

But EVERYBODY knew Lee Oswald's name at the time that Benavides said ...." this other man shot him"

So Oswald is in Gomer Pyle-like bliss up to the assassination about whatever is going on.  Then it immediately dawns on him that he is going to take the fall for it.  He suddenly becomes a genius. So he does the logical thing and kills a police officer.  That is quite a fantasy tale.  The most logical reason for him to have killed Tippit is because he has just assassinated the President and has nothing to lose at that point.  He can't risk the possibility that he has already been identified as a suspect and will be arrested if he IDs himself.

What does 'Gomer Pyle-like bliss' mean?
"If he IDs himself"? Didn't he have a fake ID to show- that said A J or [Alek] Hidell who didn't even actually exist?

Are you talking about me? Point out where I made false claims.

You defended the false claim that multiple people identified Oswald as Tippit's killer by calling it nitpicking to correct it.

That is not a false claim.

Of course it's a false claim.  These people didn't witness a killing.  All they could do is identify a guy they saw nearby (in a biased and unfair lineup or in most cases from a single photo months later).

It is not a false claim. Both Helen Markham and William Scoggins witnessed the killing and they both positively identified Oswald as the killer.

Scoggins did not see Tippit being shot.
