Michael Walton Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 1 hour ago, David Josephs said: This appears to be an attempt to move "prayerman=oswald" inside the building since it really was Oswald "out with Bill Shelley in front" during the assassination. I agree. Although the PM footage is not clear enough to make a crystal clear ID of Oswald, the general shape of him has a lot of potential for it to be him. Another good thing is what Bart did ID'ing as many of where the employees were at the time. It'd be odd if "Joe Schmoe" from down from the bank would have walked two blocks to that shadowy area to watch the President of the US coming by. Of course stranger things have happened but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that the top line ("Claims 2nd Floor Coke when off came in") was written in later when it was decided that Oswald had to be getting a Coke from the machine. The Coke story was needed to explains how Baker noticed that Oswald was in the lunchroom. He could not have seen him through the window, but he could have heard the Coke machine drop the Coke. (This is how Stan Dane explained the need for the coke story, and why it kept changing.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Larsen Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 10 hours ago, David Josephs said: FBI Agent Bookout offers a slightly different take on that single line scrawled by Fritz well after the fact... Bookout is describing what he heard Oswald say... Fritz's notes were from memory much later... David, Note the broken chronology in the above account. First Oswald bought the Coke and had his 2nd floor encounter with Office Baker. (Implying that the shooting had already occurred.) Then Oswald went to the 1st floor and had lunch. He then went outside and stood with Bill Shelley. He then went home. This of course makes no sense. But if you remove the false Coke and Officer Baker stories, we have this: Oswald went to the 1st floor and had lunch. He then went outside and stood with Bill Shelley. He then went home. Then the chronology works. I wonder if the Coke story is actually true. I mean, wasn't it Oswald's habit to get a Coke on the 2nd floor on the way down for lunch? (It seems like I've read that.) If so, the story would be: First Oswald bought a Coke on the second floor. He then went to the 1st floor and had lunch. He then went outside and stood with Bill Shelley. He then went home. And the chronology still works. Therefore, the chronology was broken just because of the addition of the fake 2nd floor encounter. If Prayer Man is Oswald, then we know Oswald went out early enough to witness the shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly sure that has been proven false... what amazes me is the changing of the shirt and pants which remains in the notes... That absolutely destroys Bledsoe and McWatters and the cab driver... since they lied... what evidence against the innocent Oswald can be trusted? A different story is presented by the second set of notes acquired by the ARRB. The Warren Commission observed that during Oswald’s various interrogations, “Captain [Will. Fritz of the homicide and robbery bureau did most of the questioning, but he kept no notes and there were no stenographic or tape recordings.” 5 On the other hand, it was clear that Fritz possessed some sort of notes, for he told the Warren Commission, while recounting the interrogations, that “...I kept no notes at the time, and these notes and things I have made I would have to make several days later...”.6 http://www.jfklancer.com/pdf/haappanen-notes.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Hilliard Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) I don't know if this youtube clip has been posted in the thread here. I did post it on another forum. It contains a view from the backside of the main TSBD front entrance. It shows the view of a guy that appears in a clip on the 1st page of this thread. It could be this prayer man individual. At 4:42 a guy with a red checkered shirt. I say it is Billy Lovelady At 5:44 .... same guy. At 6:25 I see a different guy at the lower right step out hands in pockets ..not bald on the back of the head like Lovelady.... Wearing a different shade of long sleeve shirt not reddish but brownish...one like described by both Roy Truly and Officer Baker. I think that guy @ 6:25 is Lee Harvey Oswald . He is wearing the brown shirt that has been described several times in the case. There is no evidence of a grey jacket. The man seems to look onward with a bit confusion or puzzlement. He does not seem to be in an all fired hurry to depart the area. If there is playback difficulties...look up the title on youtube and try it there Edited October 2, 2017 by Karl Hilliard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a B&W film, right? I see no reason to believe this is Billy Lovelady. According to affidavits and testimony I've read, Lovelady was still on the TSBD steps at that time. Though he did leave shortly thereafter to get a better view... once the president's limo was out of sight from the steps. On 10/1/2017 at 9:24 PM, Karl Hilliard said: At 5:44.... same guy.

I suppose that could be Oswald. The evidence for this being: It's a guy. Standing out in front of the TSBD. Who isn't bald. His shirt is consistent with Oswald's, and is open, indicating he is likely wearing a white tee shirt underneath. But this film was taken quite a while after the shooting, and there were lots of people walking around. So the guy we see could easily be someone other than Oswald. In addition, this guy's hair looks longer than Oswald's on the sides, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever thought what red looks like in a B&W film? Yes black.!!! Yet the shirt is more orangy red than full deep red so it would appear slightly more greyish. How many generations deep are these images? That shirt is washed out as well. Let's move on. Edited October 3, 2017 by Bart Kamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Cross Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 The guy at 6:25 is interesting. Something about the way he moves, his gesture, reminds me of Oswald. Hair does look too long in back, or is ruffled from leaning against the wall in the doorway . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Hilliard Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Quote Hair does look too long in back Larry Sneed interviewed Mr Roy Lewis [another book order filler at the TSBD at the time] for his book [No More Silence]....Lewis made the comment that Oswald 'hated haircuts'. There was a barber who came forward and stated that Oswald drove to his shop in Irving [?] on occasions maybe every two weeks. As it was determined that Oswald didn't drive, the WC Report ignores this. As another note on Mr Lewis...the WC changed his testimony and in the report states that "he could not remember anything in Oswald's hands" when he came to work on that day. Roy Lewis actually testified that "he saw nothing in Oswald's hands". Oswald's 'girlfriend' FWIW...in her book said that Lee would reluctantly go to the barber and walk out basically unclipped. I found a PDF file from 'Me and Lee".

I looked at it more carefully and agree that it's a washed out color film. But the man's shirt is a deep red color with no fading. I believe the color was photoshopped in. However, if a film expert were to testify that red colors in film don't fade appreciably, I would change my mind. Or if someone could produce a film demonstrating that red doesn't fade, I'd change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I do know is that I've come across numerous assassination-related photos and films that have been photoshopped. Even things that seem to have no reason for photoshopping. (I know they are photoshopped because there are multiple copies available that can be compared.) Why do you think the dark red shirt alone hasn't faded?
