I'd have to disagree with the theory Baker and Truly delayed several minutes before going upstairs in the Depository. Gilbride makes a good point when he says the mundane detail of Baker getting stopped by the locked front desk swinging door is something that couldn't be made up by people fabricating a story. Besides, Baker said he thought the shots came from "up high". That means when he ran towards the front entrance he was intent on going up high and quick. Also, there were no witnesses to the delay. It also follows suit that Depository manager Truly, once seeing an officer run towards the building in his charge, would follow quickly to aid that officer.
Frazier might not volunteer anything about any movement of the police because of the understood situation of the power of the Dallas Police and not wanting to get involved. In Dallas the cops bear witness against you and not the other way around if you know what's good for you. Don't forget Frazier had a little meeting with the Dallas cops in his father's hospital room.
There is the possibility however that Baker took two minutes instead of one and a half. This would potentially allow a quickly-departing Adams and Styles to get out of the 1st floor just ahead of the arriving Baker and Truly and might solve that problem.
