I don't know if Benavides saw the actual shooting..... But I believe he did... based on his story of approaching the scene in his pickup truck and witnessing Tippit stepping out of the police cruiser and walking toward the front of the car, "When this other man shot him" .
Those are Benavides words..... So no matter what the liars wrote in the WR , Benavides DID witness the murder and he was by far the best witness. And the bottom line is:....Benavides DID NOT describe Lee Oswald as the man who he saw shoot J.D. Tippit.
He stated very clearly that he only
heard the shots.
Mr. BENAVIDES - The other man was standing to the right side of the car, riders side of the car, and was standing right in front of the windshield on the right front fender. And then I heard the shot. Actually I wasn't looking for anything like that, so I heard the shot, and I just turned into the curb. Looked around to miss a car, I think.
And then I pulled up to the curb, hitting the curb, and I ducked down, and then I heard two more shots.
