Why Officer Tippit stopped his Killer

[Milo Reech]

Milo:

I think he left out the ambush angle because I dealt with it.

he told me that he was writing this before my article appeared. So he then tapered it so as not to be to be too redundant.

OK, but your article does not mention the Marsalis accident. I'd like to know if the author considers the accident & stabbing a staged event. If not the Tippit rubout assumes an unconvincing aleatory nature. If Tippit was set up the plot to kill him would not have been triggered by happenstance.

Leaving the big picture aside, the author's summary dismissal of the flight path described by Markham via the alley is dubious:

All other witnesses saw the gunman flee west on Jefferson Boulevard. No one else saw the gunman go across an empty lot and disappear down the alley.

The alley evidence is discussed at length in the other thread (Cimino, Burt, the Poe/Jez report, Barnes' map), evidently ignored by the author. There were two runners, and the one who fled down the alley did not resemble LHO.
