So Milton Jones and the bus driver, McWatters  both said that the guy they saw was wearing a blue jacket. Bledsoe, on the same bus,  said that "Oswald' was wearing brown shirt with a hole in the sleeve.

Sumtink stinks.

Ray, where are you getting that McWatters said that the guy he saw was wearing a blue jacket?

Apologies. Its was Whaley, the taxi driver, who said "Oswald" had a blue jacket on. McWatters, the taxi driver,  said "he (Oswald)   had on, I believe, some type of jacket, cloth jacket. "

FBI SA Robert Barrett described it as a brown jacket.

"two police officers boarded the bus and checked each passenger to see if any were carrying firearms"

This shows that the Dallas police were in the habit of doing illegal searches.  Oswald stood up for his rights and paid the price.

Also, is there any record of any other buses being searched that day?  What made the police zero in on that particular bus, heading towards the crime scene?

Just correcting my earlier statement. I said that Robert Barrett described the shirt that Oswald had on as a brown jacket. I now believe that I was mistaken. It was Bardwell Odum, not Barrett, who gave that description. He described it as a reddish brown jacket. Marrion Baker also described the shirt as being a brown jacket.

"Marrion Baker also described the shirt as being a brown jacket."

Marion Baker said he was wearing a light brown jacket when he saw him in the TSBD.

He said he was wearing different clothes when he saw him in the DPD a couple hours later.
