In reference to the security for President Kennedy in Dallas, after his trips to Miami, Tampa, Chicago, and the 400 or so letters threatening his life and mailed in 1963, in possession of the US Secret Service, one would think that he should have been provided better security than he had, especially in Dealey Plaza, the likeliest place for a shooting at his open limousine.
The head of the Dallas office of the Secret Service, Forrest Sorrels, who was riding in a car behind the President's limousine noticed the station wagon parked on top of the Grassy Knoll, and subsequently confronted the owner of it, Rubin Goldstein, whose business was called "Honest Joe's Pawnshop." The windows of the wagon were covered in cardboard, and a man stood on the runming board who probably shot the fatal shot to the right forehead of the President. That man may have been Roscoe White, a former US Marine, who was identified as "Geneva White's husband" by Beverly Oliver who ran across Elm Streer and up to the Grassy Knoll. She saw him in a Dallas policeman's uniform, but without a cap, badge or holstered gun. He was employed as a clerk and photographer by the Dallas Police Department. He was in training to become a police officer and had no right to wear such a uniform until he became a Dallas Police Officer, which he did a year later in 1964. He was a close friend of Jack Rubie's.
