The WC testimony of Mary Bledsoe

The only witness who was shown the actual evidence she was required to testify about (the shirt Oswald was wearing when he was arrested) at her home just prior to her deposition. That Mary Bledsoe?

Mary Bledsoe positively identified the shirt well before her deposition. Well before she was ever asked to give a deposition actually. She was shown the shirt on Dec 4, 1963 by two FBI agents and was able to positively identify it for them. She did not receive notification that she was required to appear before the Commission until March 1964.

How could Bledsoe have seen a hole in Oswald Brown shirt when it was underneath his jacket that Mcwatters said he had on?

Ah, McWatters thought that the shirt looked like a jacket as well? That's three. Baker, Odum and Mcwatters. I wonder if there are any others.

Where did Odum see Oswald wearing either the arrest shirt or a jacket?

And how do you know McWatters really saw a shirt and not a jacket?

In her testimony she was at best cryptic about the identification of the shirt. She recognized it as the shirt "secret service" men showed her in her home and as the shirt Oswald was wearing before he was shot. Even Ball had difficulty believing her;

Mr. BALL - In order to convince me that you did see it before you've got to tell me what there is about it that is the same, you see. Now, you try to convince me, or tell me why it is that you believe that this is the shirt that Oswald had on when you saw him on the bus?

Mrs. BLEDSOE - Well, I would say it was. That hole---

Mr. BALL ? Mostly the hole in the right sleeve?

Mrs. BLEDSOE ? Yes.


The problem is she saw the hole in the sleeve when the shirt was shown to her in her home.
