Friends, there are still some details to be teased out here and there, and some jolly back-and-forth to be had, but I believe we are now at the point where we can-------------for the very first time ever------------track
Mr. Lee Harvey Oswald's exact positions/movements during the assassination.
POSITION AMr. Oswald is just behind Mr. Carl Edward Jones at the bottom of the west side of the entrance way.We first see him here in Hughes, sipping from his Coke bottle, which he holds in his right hand-------------
.
The next time we see him here is in Towner a couple of seconds later------------
(We don't see him in Bell because he is blocked by all the intervening foliage.)
The final glimpse of him in this same spot is in the version of the Altgens photograph shown live on TV by Mr. Walter Cronkite the evening of the assassination. He is caught doing once again exactly what we saw him do a few seconds prior in Hughes: taking a drink from his Coke, which he holds in his right hand:
POSITION BMr. Oswald, in response presumably to hearing the first loud bang, and wishing to better see what's going on down Elm St., has moved across to his left (i.e. east).He is now here, his recognizable face hidden to history by a ridiculous and physically impossible artificial shadow that has been added down Mr. Lovelady's right side in the Wiegman frames:
By the time of Darnell, he has left the front steps.
The Weaver photo suggests he came out through that glass front door at the very last minute, and so would have stayed on those steps for under a minute in all.
Mr. Oswald claimed in that first interrogation that he "went outside to watch P. Parade", and he was telling the truth. The rest is non-history.
