Yet Another Shooter??

[Dan O'meara]

Actually, this person has been referred to as an assassin since long ago.  I remember it being discussed in John McAdams newsgroup.  They can't tell the difference between a twig and a rifle, and no assassin is going to hang around out in the open putting his rifle on display for everyone over a minute after the assassination took place.

Considering the minuscule amount it takes for some people to whisk up a theory, I was surprised I hadn't seen this come up before.
I think James has provided the answer why it didn't take off in an earlier post.

Someone, (Denis?) posted a very clear cropped version of Towner3 at Denis Morrissette’s Facebook group. We now can tell there is no gun, vaulting pole, Pogo Stick or whatever our fertile minds can vision. We can see now the thin purse strap held or wrapped around the left forearm of Marylin Sitzman!

Is it possible to post a copy of this "very clear cropped version" as I'm having difficulty reconciling Sitzman with the figure in Towner.
I get the impression the shirt/blouse/whatever it is covers the elbows of the Towner figure but Sitzman's elbows are totally exposed.

Are the straps you mention what I've picked out with the red lines.
If so, the straps seem a lot longer than Sitzman's bag.

That image was a crop of Dennis' image. I think this was the first version that I could see clear resolution of the two straps, if that's what they are. Tonight I went through the Sitzman/Hesters scenes of Zapruder's film. I wondered too about the length of the straps and spent some time tonight researching women's purses. I guess I'll start getting ads for those LOL. I have to remember there is a lot of vertical motion blur in Towner3 and maybe that may make the straps appear longer. I also noted that her scarf was sometimes fully in view from behind, but other views the wind had blown it mostly to the left (north) side of her neck. That would be her right side in the Towner3. Thanks for looking into this.

     The reason the image of this guy/kid hanging on the fence is only sporadically discussed is due to the pic/TOWNER 3 usually being cropped. The guy/kid is cropped out of the pic along with the shelter and the people inside it. To recap, we gotta guy/kid perched high atop the picket fence and a No Hat Cop. Both of these guys are in the same area shortly after the assassination.

     No way is that Sitzman we are seeing on the picket fence. Forget it.

You couldn't be any more wrong.

   And we also have an Unidentified Motorcycle Cop shadowing Roger Craig across the train yard. This same alleged Motorcycle Cop after traveling across the train yard then meanders down the Elm Ext toward the TSBD. I would appreciate ANYONE providing an ID for this Motor Cop. To recap, we now have: (1) A No Hat Cop, and (2) An Unidentified Motorcycle Cop in the train yard who then walks down the Elm Ext only minutes following the assassination.
