By "gem" do you mean the Stringfellow letter? I have no explanation for the balcony/orchestra dichotomy. I have read hundreds of police reports in the last 20 years. Many of them contain factual errors; some serious, some not.
Haire, at least, is credible enough witness that a second detention occurred at the theatre. However, I can't quite wrap my mind around why an imposter who was cooperating with the police, to frame someone for murder, would put up a struggle with the police, after his mission was successfully completed.
By voice of reason, I mean to say that I am seemingly the only regular poster here that doesn't take the "Harvey and Lee" research, namely, a lifelong pattern of impersonation by a specific individual, as established fact. I am aware that there are specific acts of impersonation. It appears from the photographs, at least, that there are several individuals involved.
I am unwilling to abandon the search for an individual impersonator at or near the time of the assassination. I believe that the H&L elaborate scenario required for Oswald to obtain the Tippet murder weapon and ammunition from his "double" is unrealistic. I believe that Oswald was smart enough not to willingly do something so stupid to incriminate himself, and yet then be unwilling to take credit for the act later.
Dawn: I've read Harvey and Lee. I have the highest respect for John Armstrong. I just don't agree with his conclusions.
