A hole in Bledsoe's story?

[Zeon Mason]

Was Oswald wearing the brown shirt when he got into the car with B.W. Frazier that morning of Nov/22/63?
Or was he wearing the other reddish brown shirt?
If the latter, then Bledsoe could not have seen any hole in the sleeve of the reddish brown shirt.
Was Oswald wearing a jacket when he boarded the bus? ( or was that some other man that McWatters saw?)
If yes, how could Bledsoe have seen a hole in the shirt sleeve? It would have to a be peculiar way of Oswald having pulled up his jacket sleeve halfway up his arm while leaving the shirt sleeve down to his wrist.

So imo , The bus transfer ticket is the only evidence that links Oswald to McWatters bus.

Could the ticket have been planted after Oswald was arrested?

If yes then the reason was to establish Oswald on the bus by 12:43  in order  to negate Butch Burroughs and Jack Davis statements placing Oswald in the theater at 1:15 and 1:20 respectively.

Without the bus trip, Oswald could get to Whaleys taxi as early as 12:40 ,  get to his boarding house by 12:50 and exit at 12:54 thus he was  able to have walked to the theater arriving by 1:15.

However, Oswald could not  have  shot  Tippit even as early as 1:08 and then still made it to the theater by 1:15 ( unless he was given a ride)

It's your thread, that you started with a plethora of mistakes and wrong assumptions which BTW you never acknowledged, and now it's my problem? Seriously?

Whew, at least you got something right!

The authorities were in the process of accumulating an excess of evidence to determine Oswald's flight from the scene of his crime.

Apparently not? Besides this clear diversion and the facts that I have already stated, please explain to me why you believe Oswald wearing the brown shirt on the bus was so important?

I just asked a question. Stop being a drama queen!

But since you brought it up, how does showing a part of Bledsoe's testimony and two photos become "a plethora of mistakes and wrong assumptions"?

And no, it became your problem when you decided to join the conversation making all sorts of idiotic remarks that served no purpose at all.

The authorities were in the process of accumulating an excess of evidence to determine Oswald's flight from the scene of his crime.

Could you write this in Chinese? Perhaps I will then understand this gobbledigook.

So, you can't answer my question? Got it!

Hi Zeon, the bus transfer all by itself is conclusive evidence, but we also have Oswald admitting to catching a bus to Bookout, Hosty and Fritz and also Bledsoe's next day affidavit and the later corroboration with McWatters that Bledsoe was on McWatters bus at the same time as Oswald.

Mr. STERN - Yes. Did he ever complain that, "We have been over that ground before," or make any such statement?
Mr. BOOKHOUT - No; I don't recall anything along that line, but I can recall one subject matter probably in the first interview where he talked about his method of transportation after leaving the Texas Book Depository, having gotten on a bus, and then that subject was taken up again, as I recall, in the second interview, expressed the same answer at that time, and then subsequently to that interview he backed up and said that it wasn't actually true as to how he got home. That he had taken a bus, and due to the traffic jam he had left the bus and got a taxicab, by which means he actually arrived at his residence.

Mr HOSTY - ..........He was asked why he left the School Book Depository that day, and he stated that in all the confusion he was certain that there would be no more work for the rest of the day, that everybody was too upset, there was too much confusion, so he just decided that there would be no work for the rest of the day and so he went home. He got on a bus and went home.

Mr. BALL. What did he say?
Mr. FRITZ. He told me he went over and caught a bus and rode the bus to North Beckley near where he lived and went by home and changed clothes and got his pistol and went to the show. I asked him why he took his pistol and he said, "Well, you know about a pistol; I just carried it." Let's see if I asked him anything else right that minute. That is just about it.

In Bledsoe's testimony she goes into detail about a woman who also got off at the same time as Oswald who wanted to get to the train station which along with specific details in Bledsoe's next day affidavit can be confirmed by cross referencing with Bus Driver McWatters testimony. Also note McWatters agrees with Bledsoe that the man who got the transfer got off after a few blocks and that some guy who was also stuck in traffic came to the bus door and said the President was shot.

McWatters had a unique punch he used to indicate the bus transfer times which was identical with the punch holes in Oswald's bus transfer.



BTW the transfer was not pristine.

I only added clarity to your clear misinformation.

In your OP you inferred that the shirt didn't have a hole, you were wrong!
You posted a photo of what was supposed to be the "shirt" with the manufactures label, you were wrong!
You posted Oswald's brown shirt asking where was the hole but you posted the wrong side, you were wrong!
In every subsequent post you are yet to acknowledge or even attempt to correct your OP, and that's naughty!

So, you can't answer my question? Got it!

And here we go again when you're clearly stuck, more Martin games.

You are not very good at this game, John. Try another hobby!
