Fritz Confirms Oswald's Alibi

In his Commission testimony, DPD Homicide Captain Fritz confirms Oswald's
12:30pm alibi, first broached in his report re the Oswald interviews in
which--"in talking with him further about his location at the time the
President was killed"--Oswald said that he "was having his lunch about
that time on the first floor", and that he "ate lunch with some of the
colored boys who worked with him." (WR p605).

In his testimony, Fritz reiterates this Oswald statement: "[Oswald] told
me that he was eating lunch with some of the employees." He then goes on,
and goes Oswald one better: "Our investigation shows that [Patrolman
Baker] actually saw [Oswald] in a lunchroom, a little lunchroom where they
were eating, and he held his gun on this man.... [Oswald] had a cheese
sandwich and a Coca-Cola." (v4p213)

This statement, then, is not Oswald's--it was, says Fritz, part of the
broader "investigation". Not only does Fritz, then, testify that Homicide
determined that Oswald was eating lunch on the first floor, but that that
was where Baker accosted him! Capt. Fritz, CT....

The info suggests that Baker encountered Oswald on the 2nd floor at the
lunchroom, which had a door with a window in it. Did the 1st floor
lunchroom have a window in it too?

That amounted to a jumbling, a rearranging, a reassigning of the things
Oswald said to Fritz. The reality was:

Oswald was a loner, and he ate with no one- not even on a good day. He
wasn't hostile or belligerent, but he preferred his own company. He pretty
much avoided interacting with the people there as much as he could. There
is no doubt about that. So, Oswald wasn't eating with anyone. He ate alone
in the first floor lunch room, but it was well before 12:30 at a time that
James Jarman and Harold Norman were in view. Either they came in the
domino room OR Oswald could see them from the domino room. That's all
Oswald meant when he brought up their names. He did not say or mean that
the three of them were eating lunch together. And, his sighting of them
had to be well before the assassination because by the time of the
assassination, Jarman and Norman were up at the window on the 5th floor,
below the Sniper's Nest.

Vincent Bugliosi places Oswald in the first floor lunch room eating until
12:15. It may have been a bit longer than that, perhaps 12:20. He ate
alone- a cheese sandwich and an apple. From there, he went out to the
doorway and watched the motorcade with the others. But, Oswald left early-
perhaps before the fatal head shot, and if not then immediately after it.
He went back inside, turned right at the stairwell, and went up the one
flight to the 2nd floor. He walked through the offices or he took the
hallway and wound up at the vestibule to the lunch room. As he was going
through the door to the vestibule, Baker saw him through the glass of the
door that faced the stairwell. That's the other stairwell, the rear
stairwell- the one that went to the 6th floor. He followed Oswald into
the vestibule and by the time he got there, Oswald was already walking
through the lunch room. The door to the lunch room was propped open. He
ordered Oswald to stop and turn around. Oswald did. Oswald had nothing in
his hands. Truly got there and ID'd Oswald as an employee. Then Baker and
Truly left. Oswald never said a word.

Now, that's what happened, and all the rest is flim-flam. Fritz, who by
that time was a conspirator, was jumbling Oswald's words in order to hide
the simple fact that Oswald was standing in the doorway at the time of the
shots.

DONALD WILLIS SAID:

Not only does Fritz, then, testify that Homicide determined that Oswald
was eating lunch on the first floor, but that that was where Baker
accosted him!


DAVID VON PEIN SAYS:

Utter nonsense. Fritz testified to no such thing. Just read the *complete*
testimony. Joe Ball asks Fritz:

"At that time didn't you know that one of your officers, Baker, had seen
Oswald on the **second floor**?"

Fritz responded with:

"They told me about that down at the bookstore; I believe Mr. Truly or
someone told me about it, told me they had met him--I think he told me,
person who told me about, I believe told me that they met him on the
stairway, but our investigation shows that he actually saw him in a
lunchroom, a little lunchroom where they were eating, and he held his gun
on this man and Mr. Truly told him that he worked there, and the officer
let him go."

Then....

Mr. BALL. Did you question Oswald about that?

Mr. FRITZ. Yes, sir; I asked him about that and he knew that the officer
stopped him all right.

Mr. BALL. Did you ask him what he was doing in the lunchroom?

Mr. FRITZ. He said he was having his lunch. He had a cheese sandwich and a
Coca-Cola.

Mr. BALL. Did he tell you he was up there to get a Coca-Cola?

Mr. FRITZ. He said he had a Coca-Cola.

================

Captain Fritz' notes reflect very nearly the same version of events as
above, although in the notes, Fritz doesn't say that Oswald actually *HAD
LUNCH* on the second floor. The notes reflect that Oswald told Fritz that
he (Oswald) went "to 1st floor had lunch".

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cccbyzkaGcY/VLcIyeV6aiI/AAAAAAABCy4/Bgxowpb6KZE/s1600/Fritz-Notes.jpg

But, Donald, you aren't *really* trying to make a case for the
Baker/Oswald/Truly encounter taking place on the FIRST floor instead of
the second floor, are you? Because that's a cockeyed version of events
that only really *desperate* CTers have embraced. (Are you *that*
desperate, Don?)

The "encounter" was confirmed as having occurred on the SECOND floor by
both Roy Truly and Marrion Baker---and even by Lee Oswald *himself*, via
Fritz' notes --- "claims 2nd floor Coke when off [officer] came in".

How can anybody---even a hardnosed CTer---possibly still think that Baker
saw Oswald anywhere OTHER than the second floor?

That's yet a third possibility, beyond mere confusion and the actual
results of Homicide's investigation. I doubt it (intentional jumbling,
that is) though--why would Fritz want to look like a bumbling idiot?

The elements are a bit different, even if Fritz meant 2nd floor. Now,
instead of debating whether or not Oswald had already gotten his soda, we
can debate whether Oswald was already at a table eating, or had just
rushed in and was Fooling and Pretending (to borrow from W.C. Fields)....
But if so why didn't the other diners mention the scene?

If that's true, then why didn't Oswald say that he watched the motorcade
at the doorway? He never did.

Why did not a single other TSBD employee remember seeing Oswald at the
doorway since, as you say, he was "with the others"?

Close, but you know nothing about the TSBD.

That first floor room is called the Domino room, not the Lunch room.
The lunch room is on the second floor. That's the one with the Coke
of Dr. Pepper, so he had to buy a coke.

I have two competing theories about that. You can choose whichever one you
like best. One theory is that when Oswald could not get a Dr. Pepper, he
was frustrated and had to settle for a Coke instead. But what he didn't
know is that Coke was still being made Down South with cocaine still in
it, So was on a drug high when he shot at President Kennedy. I call that
the Twinkie Defense (Google it). The other theory is that Oswald knew that
Nixon was in Dallas to attend the Pepsi convention so he chose a Coke to
spit Nixon. I call this the Pepsi Revenge Theory (don't Google it).

Maybe he just saw them walk by outside through the window.

Yes, but that is why the Nazis have to twist Fritz's words to make it
look like Oswald was lying about everything.

Prove that he ate a cheese sandwich and an apple.
Did he stuff them in his pants, because Frazier only saw one bag on the
back seat of his car?

Baker said he had a Coke in his hand. Why the cover-up of the Coke bottle?
Because the WC thought there was not enough time for Oswald to buy a Coke?

That was an utter lie by Fritz. He knew very well that Oswald told him
that he ate in the first floor lunch room and it was well before the
motorcade. And could it be otherwise? In another instance, he said Oswald
ate with other employees, a reference to Jarman and Norman. Were they on
the 2nd floor too when Baker arrived?

Fritz was juggling, jumbling, and jostling- anything to admit the truth
that Oswald told him he was "out with Bill Shelley in front" during the
shooting. So, Fritz just took the other stuff, that came before and after,
and just sewed it all together in a different way. He took the elements
and changed the timeline.

And note that Fritz never at any time reported "out with Bill Shelley in
front." He wrote it down in notes to himself, but he didn't fit that into
his story anywhere.

David -- On what floor would Baker have seen employees in a "little
lunchroom... eating"?

And note that Fritz opposes "stairway" with "lunchroom": Baker, he
testifies, did not see him on a stairway... he "actually saw him in a
lunchroom... "where THEY WERE EATING". That "actually" cancels the
reference to "stairway". In Fritz's testimony account, there's no
stairway involved....

Fritz's "investigation" makes that case...: "where they were eating". Of
course, several employees including Oswald might have been eating in the
2nd-floor "snack bar" (as Truly called it), but that would still mean
Oswald couldn't have been on the 6th floor at 12:30, and eating lunch with
other employees on the 2nd floor at 12:31.... You're not really saying
that that's possible, are you?

Read Kent Biffle's accounts of the incident, in '63 and '64: Truly

"storeroom", however....

Yeah, but that was soon after he went down to the first floor for lunch,
around noon, as per the Bookhout/Hosty report....

None of the three people who were there (Baker, Truly, Oswald) say there
was anyone with Oswald during the encounter. None of the other employees
say they ate lunch with Oswald. If you are a conspiracy hobbyist the

How would it make sense to plan on lying about what Oswald said when it
was going to trial? How does it make sense, if you are going to lie about
what he said, to have so many different people from such diverse agencies
present (Secret Service, Dallas Police, FBI, Postal inspector, ect)? Why
entertain ideas that don`t make any sense?

The fact is they were gathering information for their ongoing
investigation, not to prove things to people playing silly games in the
future.

I can go with that, though I'm still not sure that the encounter didn't
happen on the first floor, too, and that Oswald (as per the Bookhout/Hosty
report) didn't get his 2nd-floor soda much earlier.

So, I'm assuming, as per your familiarity with Southern customs, Oswald
finished his lunch at 12:30, then went up to wash it down with a Dr. Coke
or a Mr. Pepper....

That's a good question. But if Oswald said one thing at his trial, and
the DPD/FBI & SS personnel agreed that he had said something else, the
reports would back them, not him. And I think that Fritz, for one, was
pretty sure there would not need to be a trial....

Funny--didn't the DPD and FBI (in the 2nd Bookhout report on the same
interview) collude, in their reports, on Oswald supposedly saying the cop
stopped him in the 2nd-floor lunchroom? When we know (based partly on the
Bookhout/Hosty report) that Oswald got his coke/pepsi early & did not run
into a cop up there. Partly from Fritz's 12/23 report betraying ignorance
of the lunchroom story when he supposedly heard it on 11/22!

Yes, that's what I am assuming by the way my Southern relatives berated
me.

I would put the time at 12:27.
I am not sure that Oswald ate anything.

Like I said, Fritz didn't want an actual record of the sessions around to
interfere with his (and Bookhout's and Kelley's) creative rewriting of
Oswald's answers.... For instance, O's supposedly saying that he waded
into heavy traffic to catch a bus which he immediately disembarked because
of the... heavy traffic!

Silly hobbyist figuring is no substitute for reason. You can`t show that
it is reasonable to railroad a person by having a lot of unnecessary and
unconnected people attending. A conspiracy hobbyist figuring he sees

Lets examine this a little bit. You have Fritz being involved in the
conspiracy to kill two people. Fritz has climbed to the top of his
profession, he was at the pinnacle of what he could reasonably hope to
achieve being a Dallas Police chief. He doesn`t seem political, some
police chiefs are able to move on to become Mayor or some such, but Fritz
doesn`t seem cut from that cloth. So Fritz is risking the career he worked
his whole life building. He is risking his life, he will be facing the
death penalty if his role is uncovered. He risks blacking his family name
for all eternity by taking part in this vile deed. He seems to be risking
everything for no conceivable gain. Why would he do this?

Only a political extremist, a fanatical dreamer would entertain the idea
of doing such a thing for no gain. There is such a person associated with
this case that fits this bill, a person for whom there is a truckload of
indications of his guilt. Yet still after all this time there are still
people playing silly games pretending he is innocent, and blaming innocent
people for his crimes.

Witness evidence is witness evidence. James Jarman apparently did not
know, at first, that he had been up on the fifth floor with Williams at
12:30. His first statement, 11/23, has Williams *out front* with him
during the parade! Go to Williams, and he says he did not go out front at
all, until after 12:30.... The second Williams!

Can Jarman be trusted?

The more agencies involved the more it *doesn't* seem like a cover-up.
If Fritz were the only one to interview Oswald, who would believe him?
And notice that when the Postal Inspector attended, he was the only one
(of three--besides Fritz & Kelley, I believe) who said that Oswald said
that the cop had stopped him at the front door. Check his testimony!
Fritz & Kelley said nothing....

No. Again you are two simple minded to understand the subtle difference
between a crime and the cover-up. So you think it was Richard Nixon who
picked the lock to break into the Watergate.

Well, maybe you've missed the fact that I've pointed out dozens of times
that there may be another reason. Like the Watergate tapes, maybe someone
would accidentally say something dangerous. Maybe Hosty would say that
they knew Oswald went to Mexico City because they had been watching him.
Maybe Oswald would accidentally blurt out the name of his CIA contact.
Maybe he'd accidentally blurt out the code word to start WWIII just at
Penkovsky did. Maybe Fritz would accidentally blurt out that they already
had the confession from Oswald's accomplice.

Again you jump into the middle of a discussion when you don`t understand
what is being discussed. dw here believes that Fritz knew beforehand that
both Kennedy and Oswald were slated to die. Thats not cover-up.

That's what redaction is for, isn't it? Just delete the offending words?
Or, like they did with the DPD radio logs, just have someone, in the
latter case, Sgt. Henslee, rewrite, er transcribe, portions of the radio
conversations they didn't like. Like the Insp. Sawyer reference to the
"third floor", which Henslee changed to "fifth floor". The latter they
could deal with--just a little miscounting. But the actual words "third
floor": Hard to say Sawyer meant *sixth floor*, eh? Shooting from the
third or 4th floor? Yow!

It's right there if you have eyes. Williams & co. were out front about
noon and, later, during the parade. Is English only your 7th language?

You're amazing, HobbyBud! Don't give up your day job. Williams & co. go
out front only *after* the shooting. What time was the shooting? I know
it's hard for you to put 2 & 2 together without getting 127....

Yes, cute. He works for Coke and gets a Pepsi. Cute irony, but a Coke
machine would never have Pepsi.

During principal photography, Wilder received a call from Joan Crawford,
recently appointed to the board of directors of Pepsi-Cola following her
husband Alfred Steele's death. In response to Crawford's protests over the
use of the Coca-Cola brand in the film, Wilder scattered some references
to Pepsi, including the final scene.[11]

Don't you remember the running sketch in Saturday Night Live?

NO COKE! PEPSI!

But you aren't playing along with my theory of the month. The idea is that
Oswald wanted a Dr. Pepper and they ran out so he had to go up to the
second floor and get a Coke.

I`ll supply the whole affidavit, you show me where he says he was out front with Williams during the parade...

<Quote on>

"I work for the Texas School Book Depository, 411 Elm Street, as a
Checker on the first floor for Mr. Roy S. Truly. On Friday, November 22,
1963, I got to work at 8:05 a.m. The first time I saw Lee Oswald on
Friday, November 22, 1963 was about 8:15 a.m. He was filling orders on the
first floor. A little after 9:00 a.m. Lee Oswald asked me what all the
people were doing standing on the street. I told him that the President
was supposed to come this way sometime this morning. He asked me, "Which
way do you think he is coming?". I told him that the President would
probably come down Main Street and turn on Houston and then go down Elm
Street. He said, "Yes, I see". I only talked with him for about three or
four minutes. The last time I saw Lee Oswald on Friday, November 22, 1963
was between 11:30 a.m. and 12:00 noon when he was taking the elevator
upstairs to go get some boxes. At about 11:45 a.m. all of the employees
who were working on the 6th floor came downstairs and we were all out on
the street at about 12:00 o'clock noon. These employees were: Bill
Shelley, Charles Givens, Billy Lovelady, Bonnie Ray (last name not known)
and a Spanish boy (his name I cannot remember). To my knowledge Lee Oswald
was not with us while we were watching the parade."

Why do you think every move he made was covered in the handful of
sentences in his affidavit?

You do realize two of these guys were photographed shortly after the
assassination on the fifth floor, right?

Here it is. Jarman says BRW was out on the street at about noon. Then,
he adds that the named individuals "were watching the parade". And he
says "we", meaning he, Jarman, was out there too, which he later testified
that he was, at least until about 12:20. But Williams never said he went
out front until after the shots were fired.

You can`t expect everything in a few sentences. Thats why a walkthrough
interview is superior to track movement and details, rather than a
mishmash of statements that jump around from event to event. For instance
he says Shelley came down with them, but he actually left before the rest
did.

I have shown (with references) that, say, Sawyer didn't go into the
depository until Sgt Hill got there, circa 12:50, looking for the 5th
floor, where officers (Patrolmen Hill & Harkness) said the shots came
from. He was in the building till about 1pm, was there when the shells
were found, on the 5th floor: Officer Valentine, who went up with them,
stated he was left to guard the 5th-floor area. And, about 1:12, Sawyer
indeed radioed that they had found the hulls on the 5th floor, and it was
no mistake in counting floors--he was there at the finding.

Related item: Fritz picked up the hulls, later sort of said he didn't.
Why? Because they were on the 5th floor....

If you want the references (as Marsh would), I'll try to ferry them into
this site....

What good would it do to explain it to you? You are a hobbyist playing
silly games. You want to carve into stone a few sentences from a few
disjointed statements. You won`t apply the proper reasoning, because that
would ruin the fun. What proper reasoning you will ask, because you have
no ability to attempt such a thing. I`ll tell you. People speak
imprecisely, especially when it comes to details they feel are trivial.
But more than that, if you could reason you would realize that these are
generalized statements, it isn`t likely that all everyone went down en
mass, and went outside all together. Some ate in the domino room. Givens
washed up and went back upstairs. I think Norman said he wandered around
eating a sandwich before heading out. It isn`t likely that Jarmnan took a
head count when he went out. The only way to get anything close to a true
accounting of movements and details is from a step by step walkthrough
(and even that will be flawed).

You can't say he "tried" to shoot Oswald if he never pulled out his gun. Would you say a person "tried" to shoot someone because they bought a gun and put it in their pocket? Even walked past the person's house? An attemted murder charge would never stick under those circumstances.

And "tried" means "attempted."
