Michael Walton Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) DVP - Then why even bring up the subject of Fritz' activity in the basement at all? What useful purpose is served by mentioning it? We all know the DPD blew it (big time) by letting their prisoner get shot in the gut with 70 of their armed officers right there nearby. So that's not exactly "bombshell news". I was being sarcastic throughout this thread. Probably not a good idea to do that with the subject matter we discuss here, but here's a (pretty big) hint of the sarcasm: Yes, David Andrews, more interesting events and observations. But it's all just one big coincidence and can be chalked up to sheer happenstance. ;-) DVP - Re: Dan Rather.... https://app.box.com/...nrp3fc77lb470de (And, yes, I wrote the caption to that audio file.) As for the "numerous errors" caption you wrote for that clip, I'm sorry to say but you writing a quote like that is not good enough for me. It's one thing for reporters to say the wrong thing. For example, Wolf Blitzer, when discussing Prince's death recently, said he sang "Purple Haze," a Hendrix song, when we know he meant "Purple Rain." But for a reporter to view a film of the assassination - and one that the public will have absolutely no chance of seeing for ourselves for 12 long years (and completely omit describing something he is seeing) - is not the same as making a "Purple Haze" error like Blitzer. To put it kindly, it smells of deception and of sweeping things under the rug. Just like it smells when Life magazine said that Kennedy had actually turned his body 180 degrees to face the crowd and, thus, taking the throat shot. Again, this is not a "Purple Haze" error but one to totally mislead the public. How in the world could the editor of Life magazine, who owned the Z film at that time, have gotten it so very, very wrong? They actually didn't get it wrong because they were trying, instead, to pass a rotten bill of goods along to an unsuspecting and blind public.

Craig Carvalho Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) Two Dallas detectives who I have focused on in my research are Louis Miller and William Harrison. In my original posting here on the Education forum I incorrectly placed Miller as being present at Oswald's final interrogation before being brought down for the ill-fated transfer. After re-reading Miller's Warren Commission testimony I was able to precisely locate him thanks to both clips provided in this thread. Throughout the clips Miller remains exactly where he placed/positioned himself in the basement that morning. His attention remains for the most part on his partner Harrison, who he had had breakfast with earlier that morning at the Deluxe Diner. Likewise, Harrison, although more active at the scene, also pays particular attention to Miller. During Harrison's Warren Commission testimony he stated that he could not recall looking towards the Main St. ramp after Lt. Pierce's vehicle had exited, (approximately the time Ruby would have been traversing the ramp towards him). This is incorrect. In fact, during the clip from which the above still is taken, Harrison glances up the Main street ramp several times after Pierce's car exits, and takes a long look followed by a double-take before turning away just prior to Ruby appearing in the film. Here is the position of all three persons just prior to Oswald emerging from the doorway to Miller's left. During Miller's Warren Commission testimony he stated that his initial reaction to the shooting was to place Ruby in a headlock. This is also incorrect. What he does, and I find this quite strange, is that rather than coming to the immediate assistance of his partner Harrison and the other officers attempting to subdue Ruby, he approaches Oswald and observes his condition first. Watching the clip further, Miller then turns to his left and places his right hand on Harrison's back as the struggle continues. Just some food for thought. My thanks to Douglas Caddy and DVP for supplying the footage. Regards to all, Craig C. Edited May 13, 2016 by Craig Carvalho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
