Chris Bristow Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 (edited) Hargis dismounted and immediately ran across Elm St looking for a shooter. Martin, Chaney and Jackson did not attempt to keep pace with the limo and none of them dismounted to search for a shooter. Martin just putted along slowly to the underpass and then rode out of the plaza. The films and photos suggest Chaney and Jackson just stopped and sat there for a few seconds before following far behind the limo. What were they supposed to be doing once shots were fired?

Marjan Rynkiewicz Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Did Ellis do a U-turn on the on-ramp? Courson caught up on the on-ramp, & led to Parkland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris, If you read their accounts in Larry Sneed's, No More Silence, the motorcycle escort officers were in shock. If you look at Batchelor's Exhibit# 5002, on page 134, you will find all of these Solo Motorcyclists listed. They were in the Traffic Division, and their job title was Solo Motorcycle and Special Enforcement, Monthly Detail https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=1136#relPageId=152 Their duties had ended and didn't know what they were supposed to do. Several of them wound up guarding the hallway up on the third floor of the DPD Headquarters among the swarm of newsmen. I kind of felt sorry for them. They felt like their duty was to guard the President, and they had let him down, and then thy were thrown in this midst of this pushing, cursing mob. If you look at their faces in some of those pictures up on the third floor, they look kind of lost. (I think). Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
