Did Captain Westbrook Watch Tippit's Murder?
#3
Yeah, I see little wrong with your proposed scenario. The number of Oswalds involved in getting the jacket and "throw down" wallet into some sort of custody chain is relatively tangential here, though I do think the case for two Oswalds at the Texas Theater is pretty impressive. You may also be right about a good line of sight down the driveway from the exact spot Tippit got killed. If there was another police car in that driveway, it might have been a confidence booster for Tippit, who may have thought he had backup when the reality was far less sanguine.

As to letting a cop killer walk, no doubt your observation is spot-on, except I suspect Westbrook's loyalties may have run much deeper to a certain federal agency than to DPD. Admittedly, there is speculation in all of this. Garrison's office interviewed Tommy Rowe in 1967. That transcript is probably online somewhere.
