Anatomy of the Second Floor Lunchroom Encounter
#83
Jim DiEugenio Wrote:Scott:

In Baker's first day affidavit, there is no mention at all of a lunchroom, a soda machine, of Oswald, or of Truly. In fact, the incident at that time happened on a stairwell.

And what makes that extraordinary is that, as I said, when Baker composed this affidavit, he was sitting in the same small witness room as Oswald was.

I had serious problems with this and I expressed them in my book, Reclaiming Parkland.

But Bart has gone much further than I did in this regard.

And I like the way he begins the excerpt with the challenge that he knows he will be asked: OK, if you say it did not happen then where the heck was Oswald at the time?

He then accumulates a whole battery of evidence to demonstrate he was on the first floor. If you come to it without an agenda, its pretty compelling if you ask me.

Well said, Mr. DiEugenio, especially noting the odd inconsistencies with Officer Baker: his initial affidavit void of scripted lingo that would come later; and, of course, his lack of response to someone he had supposedly challenged amid an encounter less than an hour before.

One would think it reasonable if he had at least growled something along these lines...

Baker: "Why you lying son of a witch! I should have known it was you all along...lying sack of smit. I oughta slap that smirk off your face boy".

Of course, that didn't happen because for all Baker knew at that time was Mr. Oswald was just another witness brought in for questioning. Thus his lack of response. Prior to the script all Mr. Oswald meant to Officer Baker was he was much younger than the 30 year old, 165lbs individual he encountered on the 3rd or 4th floor.

Mr. Worrell's sighting, from his vantage point outside of the building less than a minute later of this same individual clad in the same brown coat running away from the scene further buttresses Officer Baker's encounter with this individual instead of Mr. Oswald. Sadly, the real culprits in this case have gotten away with murder, leaving three men dead in their wake as they made their hasty flee from justice (President Kennedy; Mr. Oswald; and Officer JD Tippit).
