[Peter Goth]

Thanks, I will have a champagne flavored one!

ok?

[In reply to Mr Smith]
Stop pretending like you know where it was found.  You don't even know who found it or when.

I have been searching for a response to this. Who exactly does get credit for 1] Finding the bag and 2]Describing exactly where it was found. [something besides--" near the sniper's nest" the "southeast corner" or "the sixth floor"

Mr. BELIN. Did you find anything, any print of any kind, in connection with the processing of this?
Mr. DAY. No legible prints were found with the powder, no.
Mr. BELIN. Do you know whether any legible prints were found by any other means or any other place?
Mr. DAY. There is a legible print on it now. They were on there when it was returned to me from the FBI on November 24.
Mr. BELIN. Do you know by what means they found these?
Mr. DAY. It is apparently silver nitrate. It could be another compound they have used. The sack had an orange color indicating it was silver nitrate.
Mr. BELIN. You mean the sack when it came back from the FBI had a----
Mr. DAY. Orange color. It is another method of processing paper for fingerprints.
Mr. BELIN. Was there anything inside the bag, if you know, when you found it?
Mr. DAY. I did not open the bag. I did not look inside of the bag at all.
Mr. BELIN. What did you do with the bag after you found it and you put this writing on after you dusted it?
Mr. DAY. I released it to the FBI agent.

FBI Agent Vincent Drain?... Who seemed to have a lot more testimony to offer than Lt Day.
However, Agent Drain was not called to testify. I found this statement...
 

On November 22nd, 1963, I'd gone down to get a sandwich for lunch and had returned to my office at 1114 Commerce Street after the parade passed to continue doing dictation. As was the usual manner, we monitored the police radio. From that it was flashed that the President had been shot and that they were en route to Parkland Hospital. I knew where they were taking him because I had been privileged to sit in on some meetings with the Secret Service the previous four or five days in the event that either he or the Vice-President were shot.

Further...

It appeared to me as though the bullet traveled upward and had taken off the right portion of his skull.

Upward?

'The bullet travelled upward'

Must have been shot from the trunk à la Walter White.

There's that damn Fritz standing on the paper bag. 

He's a big guy. Must have broken the curtain rods.

“It was immediately locked up by Day and kept in his possession until it was turned over to FBI agent Drain for transmittal to the laboratory."

Thanks Walt, This answers the question that I asked earlier in the thread regarding that.

Therefore, based on this confirmation that it was secured in the crime labs and the sun angle study that Mytton and myself presented, the photo in which Patrick found the bag laying on top of the boxes does appear to have been taken about 2:00 pm on 11/22/63.

I have no problem with the photo at 2pm or so. I believe it was taken after Day had left with the rifle and taken back up to the sixth floor from the first floor wrapping table by Studebaker.

A simple question for the LN proponents. Who discovered CE142 on the sixth floor of the TSBD?
