Fry him for that Coke!

The Dr. Pepper is on the first floor, Stephen, but the Coke machine is on two.

Stay away from six. They are laying a new floor.

So was that bottle, whatever it contained, ever dusted for prints?

What idiot takes along a bottle of soda on a mission to kill the POTUS?

I could say:" a thirsty one". Just kidding.

I recall that the chicken sandwich (and the paper bag, and the chicken bones) and therefore the Dr. Pepper bottle from nearby (wasn't it found on the same floor?) belonged to one of the other fellows working there (B.R. Williams). I wonder if it was Mr. Williams who was observed having been on the 6th floor at the same time with the shooter, before the shooting....?

Addition: Oh, prints taken off the bottle, probably, but since they didn't have Lee's prints on them that wasn't so important so the Ommission probably left it out, or otherwise didn't notice it.

The testimony:

Here we go:

Bonnie Ray Williams's WC testimony. He says he enjoyed the Dr. Pepper and the chicken sandwich.

Mr. WILLIAMS. I carried my lunch from home to work in a brown paper bag. I believe it was size No. 6 or maybe 8--paper bag.

Mr. BALL. Number 6 or 8 size paper bag?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Yes, sir.

Mr. BALL. Small bag?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Yes, sir.

Mr. BALL. Like you get in the grocery store?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Yes, sir.

Mr. BALL. What did you have in your lunch?

Mr. WILLIAMS. I had a chicken sandwich.

Mr. BALL. Describe the sandwich. What did it have in it besides chicken?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Well, it just had chicken in it. Chicken on the bone.

Mr. BALL. Chicken on the bone?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Yes.

Mr. BALL. The chicken was not boned?

Mr. WILLIAMS. It was just chicken on the bone. Just plain old chicken.

Mr. BALL. Did it have bread around it?

Mr. WILLIAMS. Yes, it did.

Mr. BALL. Before you went upstairs, did you get anything to drink?

Mr. WILLIAMS. I got a small bottle of Dr. Pepper from the Dr. Pepper machine.

Mr. BALL. Did you have anything else in your lunch besides chicken?

Mr. WILLIAMS. I had a bag of Fritos, I believe it was.

Mr. BALL. Anything else?

Mr. WILLIAMS. No; I believe that was all.

So was the officer carrying out Lee's paper bag (LOL) and Williams' Dr. Pepper? This is getting confusing!
