    It's funny how a man who witnessed history happen right in front of him, can live a long life, and be at peace, despite having a brush with death. I hope Jim's rest has been peaceful.

    Dallas police did the worst possible job of handling the arrest of Oswald with them allowing all those reporters in the building, and not checking ID's bfor letting anybody in the dept. Especially Ruby, who carried a gun right into the dept, which obviously meant no body searches were done.

      @@bertrandlewis4906 The Dallas PD wanted to parade Oswald for the cameras in order to blunt some of the criticism of Kennedy getting killed in their city. Long story short the Dallas PD reflected all the typical issues of a southern police department circa 1960. The only cop who kind of did his job was Tippit who stopped Oswald for questioning and he got killed.

    Not saying is is not a great man and that we are thankful for his service but he always overstated his reaction to Oswald being shot. He consistently said that he saw Ruby with a gun down by his side and that he saw Ruby too late. He said he pulled Oswald and that's why he got hit more on the side than straight on. Every photo of the incident, including the famous one of Ruby stepping towards Oswald show Leavelle looking straight ahead. He did not react to Ruby shot until after he had fired.

    Oswald never said he shot Kennedy. In fact he said the opposite. LBJ was involved no doubt in my mind. People on the grounds that day are known to have said that many bullets were flying and hitting the ground in many directions. I think this guy’s recollection of his conversation with Oswald may be a bit of a stretched. I doubt Oswald was laughing at jokes.
