Sean Murphy's research deserves more

[Bob Prudhomme]

No, if Oswald dashed down from Carolyn Arnold's witnessing he would have been out of breath when he dashed back up for the Baker encounter.


If you view all frames of Prayer Man there are over a dozen people headed towards the front steps. So this isn't reliant on Frazier alone. The Prayer Man theory requires all of those people to have missed the face of the man plastered in the papers as Kennedy's killer standing right there. Common sense tells you that didn't happen.



What I said 2 years ago still holds true. We know if Prayer Man was Oswald he did not walk out of the portal to the street. That didn't happen because an ID would be certain if he had. Besides, Oswald has to be inside the Depository according to Baker's witnessing. So that means Prayer Man went from Darnell to the bottleneck of the front door. Any run-through of that scene would be forced to admit that would mean Oswald would have been shoulder to shoulder with many people entering the Depository. Some researchers like to practice selective amnesia and pretend their Frazier theory answers the whole problem, but a simple run-through of the entire dynamic shows there are many other hurdles Oswald could not possibly have cleared in a common sense understanding of the event. Prayer Man as Oswald is shot down just by the front door bottleneck alone where it would be impossible for Oswald to slip by the many people that were filtering back in to the Depository at that juncture. Sorry, anything else is just bad analysis and frankly wishful thinking since common sense alone tells you Oswald couldn't be standing right there in the open on the front steps during the shooting and not be seen. I don't trust Frazier either, but he's not the only witness.


And finally, Duncan is 100% correct. The Darnell blow-up shows a woman in a button down dress clasping a purse in both her hands with long wavy hair.

Okay, let's assume Frazier did NOT have amnesia. According to all of the statements, there were no strangers present. Frazier was closer to Prayer Man than anyone else and, as seen in the Couch film, looking right at him.

Why can Frazier not identify Prayer Man? Why does he just not say, "Oh, PM was a stranger I had never seen before" or "Oh, PM was Mrs. ________ who worked on the 4th floor" or "Oh, PM was Mr. _________ who takes the trash out and sweeps the floors"?

Answer me these questions and you will convince me.

P.S.

You are also assuming the second floor lunch room encounter between Oswald and Baker actually took place, and there is a great deal of evidence that it did not.
