Frazier's (and his sister's) continued insistence that they saw a paper bag (supporting the official version) but too small to conceal the alleged murder weapon (refuting the official version) means one of two things: a) It's the truth; or, b) it's some story that they either made up (implying advance knowledge of the assassination), or were told to tell the cops prior to the cops learning that the alleged murder weapon wouldn't fit into that small a bag (implying that whoever told them to say that thought that a different weapon, perhaps a Mauser, was used in the assassination).
If a), then Oswald participated on some level with the assassination, even if those "curtain rods" don't add up to a MC 91/38. One might suppose that Oswald brought a different gun to work, one that DID fit into the paper bag, and was unaware that HIS personal rifle would be planted at the scene.
If b), then they (Fraziers) can't change their story at any time afterwards, or the whole cover-up falls apart; and they are either prime suspects in an assassination conspiracy, or witnesses with first hand knowledge of the coverup.
I personally don't think the story is true, for the reasons that Jim D. cites above, among others. I think Frazier and Linnie Mae were "sweated" until they told a story that the DPD/DCSO believed would implicate Oswald but, (because whoever "sweated" the statement out of them didn't know all the facts) now actually tends to exonerate him.
