Youtube Interview I Did, Tippit Case

[Bill Brown]

What's with the attitude?

I'm asking because...

Mr. BELIN - Where was he when you saw him throwing shells? Had he already started across the yard?
Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir. He had just got back to the sidewalk when he threw the first one and when he threw the second one, he had already cut back into the yard. He just sort of cut across.

Your point?  You're quoting the portion of his testimony which agrees with what I said.  How about making your point?

Benavides states the shooter had not "already started across the yard" when throwing shells.

His one-two sequence does not work unless his "just got back to the sidewalk" is on 10th at the patrol car.

That's my point.

Right.

Now how does that prove my statement wrong?

Go read his testimony.  It's all in there.

[Martin Weidmann]

Not necessarily.

Deflection duly noted.

Brown seems to be in extreme defensive mode lately. Why would that be? Any idea?

[Bill Brown]

Not necessarily.

Deflection duly noted.

What would I possibly be deflecting?  I'm not deflecting anything.  You haven't even made a point, really.

[Richard Smith]

Well, since you asked...

(And remember, this is only my best guess. who really knows?)

I believe Oswald walked down Beckley, took a left onto Davis and then a right onto Patton.  Then I believe he took a left onto Tenth and walked a couple blocks towards Marsalis.  Dale Myers told me that there was a Dallas County Sherriff's car parked near Marsalis and Tenth.  I think perhaps Oswald got spooked by that and reversed direction on Tenth and is now walking west on Tenth.

I know, this has him heading somewhat towards Ruby's apartment.

Honestly, I don't like to speculate about Oswald's path and/or where he was intending to go.  But one thing seems certain, he was not heading to the theater until AFTER he shot Tippit.

David Belin's analysis of Oswald's movements speculated that he was staying off the main routes.  And noted that there was a bus transfer point at Marsalis and Jefferson where Oswald could have used his bus transfer.  Only about three blocks from the Tippit scene.  There is still a bus stop there.  That would lend itself to Oswald walking east on Tenth.  After the Tippit shooting, he is in panic flight moving in the direction of least resistance.  Just playing out his hand in response to what is happening in front of him.  Ducking into the theatre was actually not a bad decision if he had only paid for a ticket.

That's the beauty of speculation and assumptions. With enough of it, without any actual evidence, you can get anybody to do anything you like, regardless if it is reality or not.
