Don Jefferies shows his true stripes in his defense of Cinque.
While endorsing Cinque's classic strawman of Oswald eating lunch after the encounter with Baker, like Cinque he fails to answer the point. Anyone could see the main conflict here isn't the suggestion that Oswald ate lunch after the shock of Baker's encounter but is, instead, why Fritz would make such a drastic chronological reversal of sequence if the standing on the steps with Shelley happened before this encounter? Why would Fritz write the last thing first and the first thing last? While Don Jefferies congratulates Cinque he forgets that neither he nor Cinque bothered to answer this. The true description of Officer Fritz's notes probably goes like this:
[I was on the] 2nd floor when [the] off[icer] came in
[I then went down] to [the] 1st floor
[since I had already] had lunch
[I then went] Out [of the building]
with Bill Shelley [standing] in front
And of course Mr Jefferies forgets Fetzer and Cinque are using a literal interpretation of Fritz's note "Out with Bill Shelley in front".
