Denis Morissette Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 They arrested what appears the right man. He was a left-winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Ulrik Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 It strikes me as a slightly odd way to sum up the WC's case by accusing the police of having made a wrongful arrest. Does Parker really believe that there were more immediately obvious suspects than Oswald, or that they eventually should have realized that Oswald wasn't the right guy and released him? Perhaps with a nice apology? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James DiEugenio Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Oswald was arrested at the Texas Theater on suspicion he did not pay for a ticket. Things escalated from there. But it appears someone dropped his wallet at 10th and Patton. One of approximately four wallets that Oswald had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Thomas Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 If you wanted to get technical about it, you could say the police framed the wrong man. They were really looking to arrest Harvey Lee Oswald. At least that's what Earlene Roberts said. Twice. Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the official story as to why Oswald was suspected of killing Tippit? 42 minutes ago, James DiEugenio said: One of approximately four wallets that Oswald had. Yeah, I know that Oswald supposedly had four wallets. One magically appeared at the Tippit scene. One was on Oswald's body at the theater. I don't know where the other two were found.

Paul Cummings Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Will always wonder why Oswald was allowed to leave the TSBD alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) Ruth Paine, on 11/26, handed over one brown wallet and one red billfold. Marina handed over a black wallet the next day, 11/27. Johnny Brewer's story is that somehow he thought that whoever he saw outside Hardy's Shoe Store was acting suspiciously. He walked down to the theater and asked Julia Postal if she had sold him a ticket. Postal replied with something like "Who?" And added she did not think so. Brewer then walked inside and asked Butch Burroughs if he saw a guy enter and he said no. Brewer then went back outside and told Postal. Postal told him to ask Butch if the guy might have exited. Postal called the police about a guy she never saw. But she did add to the dispatcher that he did not buy a ticket.

"Oswald was arrested at the Texas Theater on suspicion he did not pay for a ticket." Only a person completely unfamiliar with the events surrounding Tippit's death and the Dallas Police Department's frantic search for the killer would make a comment like this one above.

You're ohhhhhhh so right here, Bill. I get so tired of hearing CTers confront me with that tired old canard/myth/red herring, in which the CTer is trying to tell me that the ONLY reason the police went to the Texas Theater on November 22nd was because somebody didn't pay for a theater ticket. I just want to strangle the person who has the gall to say that to me (such as the CTer I was talking to in 2016 at the link below): DVP's JFK Archives / The Real Reason The Cops Swarmed The Texas Theater On 11-22-63 Edited June 7, 2023 by David Von Pein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wallet taken off Oswald when he was apprehended at the theater. The brown wallet Ruth Paine handed over on 11/26. The red billfold Ruth Paine handed over on 11/26.
