"I Haven't Seen Him Myself" -- Butch Burroughs

[John Iacoletti]

Technically true, but pretty odd that he wouldn't mention any other encounter with the man in question.

Also, as in TMWKK, he says that Oswald entered the Theater "between 1:00 and 1:07" If he knew that, then he saw Oswald come in, which is contradicted by his WC testimony.

Or that was just an estimate based on what Burroughs was doing before and after that time period.

Never the less, Burroughs sone 20 years later  maintained he sold popcorn to Oswald ( or imposter) at 1:15 and his excuse for not mentioned this detail in his WC is that he was afraid to do so.

IDK what to believe anymore for  witnesses changing or adding details over the years but since some 40 or more JFK witness who had alternate story to the WC narrative sort of had really weird deaths from 1963-65 , it is legit reason Burroughs might have decided  to wait for time to pass before divulging a critical detail that totally exonerates Oswald of having shot Tippit at between 1:07-1:15 at 10th and Patton.

Burroughs gave what you might call a 'definitive statement,' and he gives no real indication whatsoever that was just some "estimate based on what Burroughs was doing before and after that time period."

FWIW, while the projectors started to roll at 1:00, the features didn't start until 1:20. The intervening time was filled with the usual mix of previews, ads, and, IIRC, a cartoon. Then, as today, many people showed up late to skip the filler. 1:00-1:07 is therefore an odd time for the guy taking tickets to bury his head in the inventory.
