“It was immediately locked up by Day and kept in his possession until it was turned over to FBI agent Drain for transmittal to the laboratory."
Thanks Walt, This answers the question that I asked earlier in the thread regarding that.
Therefore, based on this confirmation that it was secured in the crime labs and the sun angle study that Mytton and myself presented, the photo in which Patrick found the bag laying on top of the boxes does appear to have been taken about 2:00 pm on 11/22/63.
I'm sorry that I can't refer you to a statement ( written ?) by Detective John Carl Day, in which He said that he and Roy Truly were somewhere in the TSBD when he (Day ) spotted a "gun case SHAPED paper sack". ( Gun cases are usually triangular shaped ) When Day picked it up he turned to Roy Truly and asked him if he had ever seen it before. Truly of course replied that he'd never seen the "gun case" before..... Whereupon , Day folded the sack up and put it in his pocket and later swore that he'd never displayed the "gun case" to anybody but Roy Truly.
I believe that this happened when Day returned to the TSBD after he had taken the carcano to the DPD crime lab.
This bit of information has always been ignored and swept aside......
