Bill Brown Posted Monday at 07:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:21 PM (edited) Beginning at the 25:15 mark... "And then even Tippit's gun was taken away from the scene. There was a witness who was kind of out of control, a former Marine named Ted Callaway, who took Tippit's gun which he [Tippit] fell on top of when he [Tippit] got shot.... So Tippit's gun could have been swapped out for another gun too and that's important because if he shot Kennedy from the grassy knoll maybe they didn't want the actual gun to be anywhere near the evidence at that point." Is McBride really saying that anyone, Tippit or otherwise, would be using a service revolver in an attempt to shoot the President from roughly one hundred feet away? @Joseph McBride https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pivIGJXjxg&t=1472s Edited 8 hours ago by Bill Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Cohen Posted Monday at 08:49 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:49 PM Great point, Bill. For further reference, here's Callaway testifying during the Oswald mock trial in the '80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W. Niederhut Posted Monday at 10:39 PM Share Posted Monday at 10:39 PM (edited) Jonathan, Geez... This strikes me as a specious, defamatory thread about a well-respected investigator of JFK's murder. In the interview in question, McBride talks at length about the inappropriate tampering with evidence that occurred at the Tippit murder crime scene. His comment about Tippit's revolver was largely peripheral to the main point about the altered evidence. Edited Tuesday at 03:25 AM by W.

David Von Pein Posted Tuesday at 04:15 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:15 AM (edited) Joseph McBride said (via YouTube): Quote Just about all the evidence in the Tippit case is just full of errors and problems. An absurd statement there, to be sure. Oswald cannot possibly be innocent of shooting J.D. Tippit. And anyone who knows anything about the evidence should, of course, know why this is true.

But a lot of that evidence is a little flaky, like Blakey and the MOB in the HSCA version/book afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not me that makes Lee Oswald's guilt in the Tippit murder so blatantly obvious. It's the bullet shells and the witnesses and Oswald's own guilty-like actions that are telling us who the guilty party is. I just refuse to join the "All The Evidence Against Oswald Has Been Faked AND All The Eyewitnesses Who Positively Identified Oswald At Or Near The Tippit Murder Scene Were Wrong Or Lying" club. And let's face facts: a conspiracy theorist has no choice but to be a member of the above-mentioned fraternity in order to believe Oswald did not shoot J.D. Tippit. And it wasn't just the members of the Warren Commission who concluded Oswald killed Tippit. The HSCA came to that same conclusion as well (which many conspiracy advocates seem to forget—or ignore): Therefore.....

They did not know, for instance, that key witness WW Scoggins was with the police at the scene before 1:25pm. Therefore, his absence from the 3 Friday lineups is well-nigh inexplicable. Scoggins did not leave the scene just after he returned to it with fellow witness Ted Callaway. Scoggins was an important card in the Commission's house of cards...

I didn't start the thread, but Bill seems merely to be pointing out what in his opinion is a flaw in McBride's logic. All I did was post a clip of Callaway testifying as a means to provide a rejoinder to McBride's odd description of Callaway as "kind of out of control."

Andrej Stancak Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago It always looked strange to me that Captain Fritz never reported and was not asked by the Warren Commission about how did Lee Oswald explain how he had gotten to the Texas Theatre. Fritz led 12 hours of interrogations but this essential element of the case has fallen out completely from any notes. Could it be that Lee Oswald explained his route from his North Beckley room to the Theatre in a simple, credible and verifiable way? Therefore, should Lee Oswald's version of how he got to the Theatre be avoided at all costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
