The Tippit Case in the New Millenium

[David Josephs]

The preceding looked like a tight sequence of events, but things do not add up.

1. Error correction -- Bardin submitted Tippit's revolver to Captain Doughty, not Davenport. [http://digitalcollections.baylor.edu/cdm.../id/11619]

2. Davenport & Bardin met the ambulance "in route," and did not appear at the murder scene.

3. Their joint claim of providing ER assistance at Methodist Hospital is not supported by either Butler's or head nurse Lottie Thompson's statements.

4. Butler stated that the uniformed oficers arrived at the hospital "after several minutes." [http://digitalcollections.baylor.edu/cdm.../id/11586]

5. Thompson stated to Earl Golz, "I don't believe a policeman came at all until later." [http://digitalcollections.baylor.edu/cdm.../id/11619]

There are several other inaccuracies, among them Butler's incorrect placement of the murder site closer to Denver than Patton, and his call number was 602, not 601. Also, the examining physician, Dr. Liquori, stated there were three wounds, not four. Of greater interest is Butler's statement, "if there had been any Officers at the scene, I would have asked one of them to ride with me." Reserve Seargent Croy's claim of being at the scene before the ambulance left looks a little shaky.

Neither Davenport nor Bardin could have been the officer who "brought the gun [Butler] had placed on the squad car to the hospital in a plastic bag with the barrel inside his belt," and there are no clues as to his identity. Butler said he could not name or describe him. It is also baffling as to why D & B said they were at the hospital before any officers had arrived.

Upshot is another almighty muddle.

(My emphasis)

In this paper I offer the Chain of Custody/Events for the pistol thru 2 different paths...
https://statick2k-5f2f.kxcdn.com/images/...Pistol.pdf I hope this offers some new info for you to consider....

p39
"There are obviously two separate and distinct paths the pistol travels once back at the DallasPolice Station on November 22, 1963:
1. McDonald/Carroll > Hill > (initials from McD, Carroll, Hill, Bentley supposedly etched inhandle by screw, yet no photo in evidence shows these initials) > Fritz > T.L. Baker >gone
2. Fritz > Davenport & officers > Doughty/Barnes > SA Vincent Drain > FBI"

For the same reasons Croy and Westbrook, Sawyer and Boone, Curry and Lumpkin, Gannaway, DECKER and Stringfellow... lied about virtually everything....



Croy claims he was the first on the scene.... Yet not a soul corroborates this...

Mr. GRIFFIN. I see. Now, I am just referring to the street you found him on. When you got there, was Tippit's car there?
Mr. CROY. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Was Tippit there?
Mr. CROY. They were loading him in the ambulance.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Were other officers on the scene?
Mr. CROY. None that I saw.

Croy even claims to have spoken to Markham.... Mrs. Holan even confirms the presence of another police car at the time of the shooting...


So I feel it is a good bet NOT to take the DPD evidence as gold, in fact I'd say th DPD evidence shows off the Conspiracy, not the Crime...



(Both DECKER and STRINGFELLOW were listed FBI Informants - as is Holmes, Revill and Bringuier)




I am of the opinion that these names (all related to Military intelligence and/or the FBI) represent the majority of those on the DPD "helping to frame the patsy"
