Officer “K”

[Walt Cakebread]

The only "chain of custody" that would work for you would might be Hollywood-quality film of Oswald ditching his jacket. In CT contrarian world, lots of people were just randomly placing wearable jacket under cars that day.

I have never believed that the jacket was found UNDER that Oldsmobile.   I believe the jacket was actually IN the Oldsmobile..... But of course it would have been illegal for the officer to remove the jacket from the car, so he said he found it under the car.    And that's the reason his name was kept secret .....The police didn't want anybody asking that officer questions.

No, a chain of custody that would work would be an actual chain of custody.

Besides, what is the jacket evidence of, exactly?

[Tim Nickerson]

Are you really this naive? That's not how the law works. Officer "K" (if he really is the one that found it) is part of the chain of custody for the jacket. As such he should have been named on day one, when several officers were asked to put their initials on the jacket.

Officer "K" would not be part of the chain of custody for the jacket unless he had possession of the jacket. He did not.

If "K" didn't have possession of the jacket, then why did he say that it was difficult to ride the motorcycle while holding the Jacket?

According to "officer K", he did.  According to Bowles.

If "K" didn't have possession of the jacket, then why did he say that it was difficult to ride the motorcycle while holding the Jacket?

When and where did he say that?

Officer "K" would not be part of the chain of custody for the jacket unless he had possession of the jacket. He did not.

If he found it then he did!  Find = to obtain...to attain...to recover... to [need I go on?]
The Report said Westbrook found the jacket. A lie or didn't happen
Too much suffering here of Warren-itus....seek help.

Officer "K" was the first person to see the jacket but he did not pick it up. He did not take possession of it. Hence, he would not be a link in any chain of custody. Westbrook picked it up.
