In the previous paragraphs, Mark Lane showed how the Warren Commission moved the
Tippit killing forward in time, in order to be able to get Oswald to the scene.
"Another witness whom the Commission heard offered testimony that threatened to
invalidate its itinerary for Oswald in its entirety. Roger D. Craig, a deputy
sheriff of Dallas County and a witness to the assassination, stated that about
14
or 15 minutes after the shots had been fired at the President he heard someone
whistle.
'So I turned and saw a man start to run down the hill on the north side of Elm
Street, running down toward Elm Street ... I saw a light-colored station wagon,
driving real slow, coming west on Elm Street from Houston. Actually, it was
nearly
in line with him. And the driver was leaning to his right looking up the hill at
the man running down ... And the station wagon stopped almost directly across
from
me. And the man continued down the hill and got in the station wagon. And I
attempted to cross the street. I wanted to talk to both of them. But the traffic
was so heavy I couldn't get across the street."
In a statement given to the FBI on November 22, Craig described the driver of
the
station wagon as a 'Negro male', and the man who entered the vehicle was, he
said,
Lee Harvey Oswald. At approximately 5.30 p.m. on November 22, Craig went to the
office of Captain Fritz, where Oswald was being interrogated. Craig testified
that
'Captain Fritz asked me was this the man I saw [running toward the station
wagon]
- and I said, "yes," it was'. Crag stated that at that point Captain Fritz asked
Oswald, 'What about this station wagon'. And the suspect interrupted him and
said,
'That station wagon belongs to Mrs Paine' � I believe is what he said. 'Don't
try
to tie her into this. She had nothing to do with it.' And Captain Fritz then
told
him, as close as I can remember, that, 'All we're trying to do is find out what
happened, and this man saw you leave from the scene.' And the suspect again
interrupted Captain Fritz and said, 'I told you people I did.' And � then, he
said
� then he continued and he said, 'Everybody will know who I am now.' And he was
leaning over the desk. At this time, he had risen partially out of the chair and
leaning over the desk, looking directly at Captain Fritz.
Mark Lane is now showing the testimony that the Warren Commission hated so much
that they were forced to pretend that Whaley and Bledsoe were more credible...
