Holmes' Testimony

[LR Trotter]

Mr. Trotter is a good and decent human being. I respect him as such, but simply disagree with him on some key issues in this case.

In spite of the bold claim about presenting evidence, suggesting that Dallas County Sheriff Deputy John Wiseman wasn't right on the heels of the lying tandem (Baker & Roy Truly's adventures upon an otherwise LOCKED roof), the lack thereof equates to there is nothing to refute Deputy Wiseman in calling out the lying tandem for what they are...liars clinging desperately to a hastily contrived script concocted in order to FRAME an innocent party, the wrongly accused (Mr. Oswald).

Without getting into specific details here, until such time someone dares to try to diminish deputy John "An Honest to Goodness Lawman" Wiseman's account, I'll hold in reserve the accounts of three other men in law enforcement that same afternoon--per their own statements--who also crawled into the same incredibly dark space in the attic and their respective findings as well.

That said, moving along now, let's recap:

Q: Where did Holmes place the encounter w/the wrongly accused?
A: Mr. BELIN. Did he state it was on what floor?
Mr. HOLMES. First floor. The front entrance to the first floor.

Q:That said, moving along now, let's recap Where did Marrion Baker really encounter someone other than the wrongly accused, some 165lbs...

A: "....I saw a man walking away from the stairway. I called to the man and he turned around and came back toward me. The manager said, "I know that man, he works here." I then turned the man loose and went up to the top floor. The man I saw was a white man approximately 30 years old, 5'9", 165 pounds, dark hair and wearing a light brown jacket.

Q:What condition did Dallas County Deputy-Sheriff John Wiseman find access to the roof?
A: Locked.

Am still puzzled over why Roy Truly was over in the sniper's nest BEFORE the authorities found key "evidence" ----->

BELIN. When did you get over to the southeast corner of the sixth floor?
Mr. TRULY. That I can't answer. I don't remember when I went over there. It was sometime before I learned that they had found either the rifle or the spent shell cases.

I have yet to find any reliable evidence that accused LoneGunman LeeOswald stated that he encountered Officer ML Baker and/or Superintendent RS Truly anywhere other than the 2nd floor lunchroom in the minutes after the DealyPlaza shooting of President JohnKennedy and Governor JohnConnally. Nor have I found any reliable evidence that Mr Baker and/or Mr Truly stated that they had encountered Mr Oswald on the "First floor. The front entrance to the first floor", in said time frame. And, I do not recall any eyewitness' testimony that disproves the 12:31/12:32pm CST occurrence of the 2nd floor encounter at the lunchroom.

Deputy JW Wiseman's statement indicates that the roof access door was "locked" from the inside, using a hook latch. So, at least to me, the correct terminology would likely be that said access door was latched from the inside (7th floor).

In all likelihood, as Superintendent RoyTruly was observing the situation on the 6th floor in the aftermath of the shots being fired at the Presidential Motorcade near the TSBD, he noticed the stacked boxes near an open window facing Elm St, and investigated the area.
