You are now suggesting that Truly and Baker lied about going to the roof? Wow. Was everyone in Dallas in on this conspiracy? And why would a "gate type hook latch" preclude anyone from going to the roof? Flip the hook latch and go up. It would only seem to preclude someone from entering the 7th floor from the roof.
On the contrary, Mr. Smith, I'm not making a mere suggestion at all. They outright lied about being atop an otherwise locked roof. Period. The question here now becomes Why?
Was it to account for why no one else travelling along on their "official" path (the backstairs) saw them there
together; and/or Did Roy Truly need an excuse to draw suspicion away from why he was in the "sniper's nest"
before the incriminating "evidence" was found? ---->
Mr. BELIN. When did you get over to the
southeast corner of the sixth floor?
Mr. TRULY. That I can't answer. I don't remember when I went over there. It was sometime
before I learned that they had found either
the rifle or the spent shell cases.
*Sidebar: Though I don't have my notes handy...am using a public computer at the moment...my research notes bear evidence of someone else other than Deputy-Sheriff John Wiseman who also legitimately attempts to gain access to that otherwise locked roof from
the inside, and per that instance he all but reveals what he experienced, which is something both the lying rooftop tandem failed to exhibit in their respective testimonies. Will try to get this info on here sometime next week G-d willing.
