Revelations

[Alan Ford]

Wesley Frazier is curious because of more than one thing.

First, he insists that Oswald brought the long paper bag into the TSBD that day. But, as Sylvia Meagher said, no one else at the TSBD saw it. No one. And if you find the claim about the Dallas Police failing to photograph the gun sack in situ dubious, then this becomes a real problem for Frazier.

Second, is the story about following Oswald into the building that day as Oswald skipped a bit ahead of him. Yet, accordion to Ed Shields, Frazier stayed behind and gunned his engine while Oswald had been dropped off already.

Third, how on earth could Linnie Mae Randle have seen the gun sack from the position she said she was in at the house that day? That photo is in the WC. When this fell apart, the story was that she saw him through the wood slats in the garage approach the car. Two problems: she did not say that in her WC deposition. Second, it is hard to believe she saw through those slats to see what was in Oswald's hands on the far side of the car.

Fourth, as I said previously, Frazier's interview with Moriarty about locking his care very night--except that night-- is weird.

(I won't comment on the whole PM imbroglio. Like I said, that will not be decided until we see the original or the first generation.)

I have always thought that Frazier is one of the key witnesses who should be called if there is a reopening of the case.

I could go on and on, and I did in my two most recent books.

You state/share more than a few valid points here, Mr. DiEugenio, but should you venture back this way at some point, please consider sharing the specific titles of your works here in the event any "Guests" not familiar with them may at least have a reference point.

What I would have given to watch the wrongfully accused's sharp legal counsel--in his/her closing arguments--hammer away at how was it possible that only one person saw Mr. Oswald with an oddly shaped package in tow that morning....Isn't that like a robber going into a crowded, busy bank and only one teller actually remembers the time of the hold up?!

Nice catch too @ the oddity surrounding that one lone occasion where Mr. Frazier fails to lock his car door. Just had to coincide w/the "truth" as he knew it eh
