Oswald was not wealthy so if he went home to change with the plan of going out somewhere else, of course he would stick the bus transfer ticket back in his pocket after getting chnged and take it with him (especially if it was still valid for several more hours).....Oh
What did mrs roberts say....he left the boarding house and the last time she saw him he was standing where......oh thats right at the bus stop near his residence...
No mystery here....he got on a bus....he got off a bus...got in a cab....changed at home....put the transfer ticket in his new shirt pocket...went outside waited a few minutes for a bus.....changed his mind and walked off.
no need to see issues...when there really isnt one....lots more important stuff to look at then this issue of the bus ticket.
LHO is arrested @ approximately 1:55pm.
He isn't searched until 4:05pm! Over 2 hrs.!
Five live rounds of .38 calibre pistol shells, of the same odd assortment as found at Tippit's murder, are discovered in his left front pocket.
A pristine bus transfer is found in his shirt pocket.
