Wrong on both counts.
A. I’m not the prosecution. There is no prosecution. Oswald is dead.
B. Evidence can be excepted and it’s up to the jury to determine how much weed to give it even if there is no acceptable evidence trail.

You have not shown the DPD used such forms in 1963. You haven’t shown anyone used such forms in 1963.

No, because they were picked up by civilians and turned over to the police. Evidence photos cannot be re-creations. Once the evidence is picked up and removed from the crime scene, it should not be replaced into the crime scene - that is criminology 101. You do not know this? I thought you had claimed experience in law enforcement.

No, because they were picked up by civilians and turned over to the police. The civilians did not mark the shells in any way. Nor is there an obligation for civilians to mark them in any way for identification later. You do not know this either?

He waffled on whether he identified them with markings or not at the time he was provided them. You are begging the question by presuming he marked them in your begged question.
Since you appear to not know this, let me quote for you:
— quote —
Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
Mr. POE. A man, white man.
Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.
Mr. BALL. And what did he say?
Mr. POE. He said he picked the two hulls up.
Mr. BALL. Did he hand you the hulls?
Mr. POE. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. Did you put any markings on the hulls?
Mr. POE. I couldn't swear to it; no, sir.
Mr. BALL. What did you do with the hulls?
Mr. POE. I turned the hulls into the crime lab, which was at the scene.

What part of “I couldn’t swear to it; no, sir” did you not understand?
Like conspiracy theorists everywhere, you pretend the evidence says one thing when it says something else entirely.

You tell me. Tell me what you make of this.

> Do the shells match in number and manufacturer the bullets that were removed from Off. Tippit’s body ?
Yes, within reason. Some witnesses heard as many as five shots, yet only four shells were recovered. Only four bullets were recovered. The two brands of shells matched the two brands of bullets, but there was not a one to one correspondence. Furthermore additional bullets were recovered from Oswald that matched those two brands. The Warren Commission explained all this.
You don’t know this either?
— quote —
The examination and testimony of the experts enabled the Commission to conclude that five shots may have been fired, even though only four bullets were recovered. Three of the bullets recovered from Tippit's body were manufactured by Winchester-Western, and the fourth bullet by Remington-Peters, but only two of the four discarded cartridge cases found on the lawn at 10th Street and Patton Avenue were of Winchester-Western manufacture.581 Therefore, one cartridge case of this type was not recovered. And though only one bullet of Remington-Peters manufacture was recovered, two empty cartridge cases of that make were retrieved. Therefore, either one bullet of Remington-Peters manufacture is missing or one used Remington-Peters cartridge case, which may have been in the revolver before the shooting, was discarded along with the others as Oswald left the scene. If a bullet is missing, five were fired.

This is your argument. But you presented no evidence here to establish that.

This is your argument. But you presented no evidence here to establish that.
I do not rebut links. If you don’t care to present the evidence here, I don’t care to rebut the evidence that is not here.
