Some other bogus Nelson statements....
?I think he (Oswald) was amazed that he wasn?t arrested after the shooting. The book depository was covered with cops and he walks out! He didn?t appear to have a plan. He couldn?t go home. So he hails a cab and then gets on a bus.?
I believe there are various time estimates from other employees that the building wasn't shut down for 20 or 30 minutes.
Dallas police sealed off the exits from the Texas School Book Depository range approximately between 12:33 and 12:50 p.m.[60][61]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_John_F._Kennedy I thought the story was Oswald caught.. first the bus.. then the cab.
The fact that Tippit was shot in the temple, suggests to Nelson that he was looking away, and Oswald was the one who approached and shot him.
The facts suggest to me that Tippit was shot three times and then lying helpless was shot in the head. I have always wondered why..if the idea was to avoid detention by a policeman..would the shooter remain and substantiate that the cop would be dead by firing a coup d gras shot into the brain? If Tippit was shot in the head first...then why shoot him in the belly three times?
?Apparently, Oswald hit McDonald, then pulled a gun on him and one of the other (cops) knocked the gun away,? R.C. Nelson says. ?That?s when McDonald punched Oswald."
So, according to the story...A guy who was supposed to have the jump on Tippit..firing devil may care into a cop's belly just gives the next cop who came along a As I was walking a' alane, I heard twa corbies makin' a mane. The tane untae the tither did say, Whaur sail we gang and dine the day, O. Whaur sail we gang and dine the day? It's in ahint yon auld fail dyke I wot there lies a new slain knight; And naebody kens that he lies there But his hawk and his hound, and his lady fair, O. But his hawk and his hound, and his lady fair. His hound is to the hunting gane His hawk to fetch the wild-fowl hame, His lady ta'en anither mate, So we may mak' our dinner swate, O. So we may mak' our dinner swate. Ye'll sit on his white hause-bane, And I'll pike oot his bonny blue e'en Wi' ae lock o' his gowden hair We'll theek oor nest when it grows bare, O. We'll theek oor nest when it grows bare. There's mony a ane for him maks mane But nane sail ken whaur he is gane O'er his white banes when they are bare The wind sail blaw for evermair, O. The wind sail blaw for evermair.' slap then the cop slaps back ....UNBELIEVABLE!!
