Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Bill Chapman]

Seems you've got delusions of grandeur. Again

Nah. I'm just an ordinary genius. So far.

[Bill Chapman]

Sure...

Representative FORD. Did you point him out with your hand?
Mr. WHALEY. No, sir; I did not. They asked me which number he was standing under and he was standing under No. 2.

So, the #3 guy he picked according to his affidavit was standing under #2 -- ROFL

Mr. Belin.
What number was over his head?

Mr. WHALEY. Well, they--when they walked over the line and they stopped him, No. 2 was over his head, but he was pulling on both of the other men on each side and arguing with this detective, so he didn't stay under any certain number.
He was moving like that.

Mr. Whaley.
Well, I don't think they had it that way. I think they just had it Oswald. I am not sure what they had under it. I am not for sure, but I did see the picture.
Mr. Belin.
Was that the same man you carried in your cab on Friday?
Mr. Whaley.
Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.
Was that the man you identified at the police station?
Mr. Whaley.
Yes, sir.
Mr. BELIN. It is your best recollection, if I understand it, that this was the No. 2 man in the lineup?
Mr. WHALEY. That's right, sir. That was from the left now. No. 2 from my left. I was facing him.
Mr. Belin.
Right. I mean correct. Now, your affidavit which is Whaley's Deposition Exhibit A, the last sentence says, "The No. 3 man who I now know as Lee Harvey Oswald was the man who I carried from the Greyhound bus station to the 500 block of North Beckley." Now you say it was the No. 2 man from your left, is that correct?
Mr. Whaley.
From my left. No. 3 from my right.

[Jerry Freeman]

Whaley's four and a half month old recollection was faulty on that point. He identified Oswald as the number 3 man in a four man line up.

Then what about this statement?-------------

Mr. BALL. They had him in line with men much younger?
Mr. WHALEY. With five others.
Mr. BALL. Men much younger?
Mr. WHALEY. Not much younger, but just young kids they might have got them in jail.
Mr. BALL. Did he look older than those other boys?
Mr. WHALEY. Yes.
Mr. BALL. And he was talking, was he?
Mr. WHALEY. He showed no respect for the policemen, he told them what he thought about them. They knew what they were doing and they were trying to railroad him and he wanted his lawyer.

He forgot how to count?

Nothing like watching a genius 'splaining stuff.....(cough)

The DPD didn't need counting because.....numbers on top, as Whaley said, which I already quoted if you had cared to pay attention:

Representative FORD. Did you point him out with your hand?
Mr. WHALEY. No, sir; I did not. They asked me which number he was standing under and he was standing under No. 2.

Free hints: Check with Mr. Nickerson and pull up your pants before you start running.

No hints or running needed, since Whaley ID'd Oswald no matter how much you 'almost geniuses' attempt to cast doubt.

[Bill Chapman]

Looks good, carry on.....

Stop dodging. Cite your claim.

[Bill Chapman]

Why the sudden confusion, genius?

Whaley mentions no jackets left in the cab, "Oswald" enters rooming house in shirt sleeves.

Carry on.

Is there a point about jackets that relates to me in there somewhere? Am I supposed to solve your pet theory?

[Bill Chapman]

There's no need to cast doubt, genius, it was on record 50+ years ago, like:

Mr. WHALEY. I never saw what they had in there. It was all written out by hand. The statement I saw, I think, was this one, and that could be writing. I might not even seen this one yet. I signed my name because they said that is what I said.

Evidently, Whaley has no clue WTF he signed and is trying a right to left count to make a #3 man in the affidavit work with the #2 man he told them.

Done deflecting?
