You really should refrain from telling me that I need to read Callaway's testimony a little more closely. You're wrong.
I said "Before making his way up to the patrol car, Callaway first watched Oswald make his trek all the way down Patton to Jefferson." This is exactly what Callaway says in his testimony (among other places). To say that Callaway began making his way up to Tenth without first having watched the killer go all the way to Jefferson (even watched The killer turn west onto Jefferson) is a mistake.
You're also wrong when you claim that Callaway was already up to and near the alley (located at the halfway point in the block) when he encountered the killer. Callaway went from the porch out to Patton and was a good fifty feet south of the alley when the killer passed. The very photo you linked to (CE-539), which you claim shows Callaway near the alley, clearly shows Callaway standing well south of the alley. In the image, do you see the brick building across the street and up the street somewhat? That is exactly where the alley is, which is the halfway point down the block. You need to orient yourself on this better than you have.

No. That's not what Callaway said in his testimony. He did not say that he watched the man running to Jefferson
before making his way to 10th street. Callaway's view of the man was unobstructed all the way down Patton. In his testimony, he said that the last time he saw the man he was on Jefferson.
Mr. DULLES. May I ask what course he was taking when you last saw him?
Mr. CALLAWAY. He was going west on Jefferson Street.
He does not say he was still in the same location when he saw that.
You're also wrong when you claim that Callaway was already up to and near the alley (located at the halfway point in the block) when he encountered the killer. Callaway went from the porch out to Patton and was a good fifty feet south of the alley when the killer passed. The distances we are talking about are minimal. I said "
about halfway down" and "
near the alley that's halfway between Jefferson and 10th Street". If you want to place him 50 feet closer to Jefferson, feel free to do so. It only takes a couple of seconds to run 50 feet extra. It makes very little difference for the duration of the events.
But even if you are right about this, which I don't think you are (IMO it's just another one of your word games), and Callaway waited - before running to 10th street - until the killer got to Jefferson, we're only talking, at best, about an additional 30 seconds for him to get to the scene.
I estimated he arrived at 10th street between 90 seconds and 2 minutes after the shots, so those additional 30 seconds are still well within the range of my estimated times.
You had Callaway arriving at the scene "a couple of minutes" after the shots, without explaining what that means exactly, and you have not provided any information that shows that conclusion is wrong.
You need to orient yourself on this better than you have.There you go again... Typical Bill Brown. First telling me to refrain from telling you what to do and then, somewhat hypocritically, proceding to tell me what I should do.
