Episode 305 The Tippit Murder Part 18 Alterations and Obliterations To The Dallas Police Logs
Episode 305 is the eighteenth episode of our mini-series on the Tippit murder. David Belin, the celebrated Warren Commission attorney called it the "Rosetta Stone" of the JFK assassination. It may very well be just that...but for other reasons! In this eighteenth episode, we tell the story of one of the most blatant evidence tampering episodes within the case. And perhaps one of the most blatant ever in any such high profile case. The police logs that officially capture the conversations and the exact time in which they occur were uniquely suited to pinpoint the time of Tippit's death, and thus prove or disprove Oswald's ability to even be at the scene of the crime in time to commit the murder. When it became clear that this information was going to prove the authorities wrong, they altered the transcripts and obfuscated other evidence contained in those logs in order to conceal the fact that many officers were in the Oak Cliff area even when they had no business being there. The combination of these changes were not only designed to shut door the on the case and ensure that Oswald was to be identified as the killer, but they also avoided the obvious questions of a wider conspiracy that may have involved a number of individuals within the Dallas Police Department.
Yes…there is a grave possibility that the true "Rosetta Stone" of November 22nd, 1963, might just lie in the quiet Dallas suburb of Oak Cliff, waiting for us to finally put the pieces together. This is a wander I’ve created especially for you…and of all the wanders you have taken with me, this may be the most thrilling of all! And don’t worry, as the fall winds turn cooler, we will all be vacationing once again, in Mexico…I think you know what I mean by that. But our new wander takes precedent. As we wind down the Tippit series, I hope that you will enjoy these last few episodes of what is one of the most riveting aspects of the JFK assassination story.
