Along the same lines the final phrase of Scoggins' statement, "After I had got in the car and toured the neighborhood and then the policemen came along and I left my cab setting down there and got in a car with them and left the scene," rings hollow. "Left the scene" is enforcement jargon. My guess is Scoggins stated exactly where the cops took him, and it certainly wasn't the cab company's office to file a statement with his boss.
Perversely, on occasion there is craven acquiescence in a conclusion based on manufactured evidence, persisting long after exposure of the evidence's bogus nature, as if a platform will remain suspended in air after the scaffolding has fallen down. Point in case is the murder weapon. Evidence is strong it was an automatic, weak a revolver, but it's a commonplace that the killer ran through the Davis yard planting evidence against himself.
There are also statements generally ignored that the killer ran along 10th to Patton and turned south at the corner, meaning nobody cut across the lawn and jumped through the shrubbery. This evidence was not so much altered as disregarded, superseded by the revised flight path to accommodate the spurious spent shells.
