To me, the big picture is this:
1) Tippit had been paid or coerced into murdering Oswald.
2) The plan was to have Oswald "shot while escaping." This can be concluded because there was no reason to have Oswald arrested, interrogated for two days without any transcripts and then murdered in the police station. The fact that this occured means something went wrong in the planning.
3) Tippit was under orders from the top DPD officials like the mayor and Detective Fritz.
4) The rank and file DID NOT WANT THE DPD TO KILL OSWALD. The DPD had ample warning about the upcoming assassination and made that decision collectively.
5) The DPD followed orders in driving Oswald to the car of Tippit. Since Tippit was killed with ammo of two different brands, this means the DPD AND OSWALD both killed Tippit.
6) The real clincher is this: in the Texas Theater, LHO pulled A LOADER REVOLVER on the police. As we know today, if you pull a loaded revolver on a number of armed policemen, you will look like a Swiss cheese pretty quickly. The fact that the Dallas Police risked their lives to disarm Oswald proves they did not want the responsiblity of killing him.
7) The rank and file of the DPD got their way. The DPD was not considered responsible (and hence not legally guilty) of the murder of Oswald, but that was put on Jack Ruby.
8) Oswald was proven to have fired a pistol by the paraffin tests. But there were two brands of bullets and shell casings. The only way you could have that is if the DPD also fired on Tippit. You did not have "concealed carry" back in the day. So no civilians would just happen by with a gun in hand to shoot bullits that hit Officer Tippit.
In my mind, if you follow the mindset of the people involved on 11-22-63, you can learn as much as you might learn from the forensics.
