Why the Warren Report is Inoperable" Plaque 2

[Drew Phipps]

The single most telling evidentiary failure was the failure of Arlan Specter to show CE99 to Tomlinson, the orderly who found a stretcher bullet. Later, of course, when offered the opportunity, Tomlinson (like his boss) would not agree that CE399 was the stretcher bullet. Neither would the first two Secret Service guys in the stretcher bullet's chain of custody. So, all four of the first four people who saw the bullet would later refuse to state that CE 399 was in fact the correct bullet.

Tomlinson was never shown the bullet or even a picture of it, nor asked by Specter, or anyone else connected with the Warren Commission, on or off the record, prior to his testimony (or after it), if CE 399 was the bullet he found. That leads to the inescapable conclusion that Specter was aware that the bullet, the lynchpin of the government's case (both of Oswald's involvement AND of only one shooter), was a fraud, and he actively participated in the fraud.
