The WC testimony of Michael Paine is very interesting:
Mr. LIEBELER - Did you say in words or substance, "I came right home as soon as I heard the shots were fired from the Texas School Book Depository Building?"
Mr. PAINE - No, I came right home as soon as I heard Lee Oswald mentioned. I did not come home.
Mr. LIEBELER - Do you remember saying that you came right home as soon as you heard that Oswald was involved?
Mr. PAINE - Yes, I think I said something like that. Ruth asked me.
They only had a radio in the lab.
2.42 pm is the earliest time he could have heard the name Lee Oswald.
Earlier, he also says how - by coincidence - he was having a chat at lunch about assassinations with a a co-op student called Dave Noel and when someone came in and told him the president was shot he thought it was a nasty joke.
The testimony about moving the rifle around in the garage and thinking it was camping equipment is a bit of a joke.
Also.. when Liebeler starts to ask questions about Michael Paines mother, the Chairman immediately interupts and asks if all this is necessary. So Michael Paine never got asked about his mother (Did Dulles know his mother?)
His apartment in Grand Prairie was never searched even though he is supposed to be a left leaning ACLU member and the son of a communist.
