Well she first said she saw him near the front door on the first floor. This is the only way Oswald could have been anywhere near Junior and Norman. He couldn't have seen them if he was in the 2nd floor lunch room. So you need to make up your mind, was Arnold telling the truth the first time or the second time. That's not a great question to have to ask of someones credibility you're relying on, when there is more circumstantial evidence Oswald was on the 6th floor pulling the trigger.
Well she first said she saw him near the front door on the first floor.Actually, you don't know what she really said. All you've got to go on are two FBI reports which Arnold never read or signed.
If I remember correctly, Oswald told his interrogators that he ate his lunch in the Domino room, on the first floor, and then went upstairs to get a soda in the 2nd floor lunchroom.
Junior and Norman passed through the shipping area (visible from the Domino room) anywhere between 12.20 and 12.25 and Carolyn Arnold, according to one FBI report saw Oswald at around 12.25 pm at the second floor lunchroom. There seems to be no discrepancy there.
The problem with all this is of course that Oswald never had an opportunity to show the investigators in an reenactment where he was exactly and what he saw there, so that it could be matched up and verified with what witnesses like Junior, Norman and Arnold were saying. As it stands all we have are conflicting reports from the interrogators which, because of the contradictions, are being dismissed as Oswald's lies, when in fact those contradictions could simply have been the result of a misunderstanding or a consequence of the interrogators not knowing the lay out of the TSBD. Had the interrogators been familiar with that lay out they would have known that you can't walk through the Domino room as it only has one entrance. All we are left with are some notes from the interrogators with nobody taking the trouble to ask follow up questions for clarification. It is by no means a perfect record!
when there is more circumstantial evidence Oswald was on the 6th floor pulling the trigger.What circumstantial evidence, except for wishful thinking, is there that Oswald was on the 6th floor at 12.30?
