The people who have come forward with information are dead. One is
from the Dallas Police. His name is Roger Craig.
Look into his case...here is brief outline of what he witnessed and
what he experienced after witnessing it...maybe this is one reason
people don't talk. Another is that there really is a code of silence
amongst police agencies. Haven't we seen this in plenty of other
cases? Why is it so hard to imagine this in Dallas a place that
considers itself a separate country come on get with the program??
Roger Craig was a Deputy Sheriff in Dallas at the time of the
assassination of President Kennedy. He was a member of a group of men
from Dallas County Sheriff James Eric "Bill" Decker's office that was
directed to stand out in front of the Sheriff's office on Main Street
(at the corner of Houston) and "take no part whatsoever in the
security of that motorcade." Once he heard the first shot, Roger Craig
immediately bolted towards Houston Street. His participation in the
formative hours of the investigation during the rest of that day and
into the evening included observations and experiences that would have
singlehandedly destroyed the entire Warren Commission fairy tale
before a grand jury or a Congressional investigation.
Roger Craig was named the Dallas Sheriff's Department "Officer of the
Year" in 1960 by the Dallas Traffic Commission. He received four
promotions while he was Deputy Sheriff. Among the most im****tant
events he witnessed:
* at approximately 12:40 p.m., Deputy Craig was standing on the
south side of Elm Street when he heard a shrill whistle coming from
the north side of Elm and turned to see a man -- wearing faded blue
trousers and a long sleeved work ****rt made of some type of grainy
material -- come running down the grassy knoll from the direction of
the TSBD. He saw a light green Rambler station wagon coming slowly
west on Elm Street, pull over to the north curb and pick up the man
coming down the hill. By this time the traffic was too heavy for him
to be able to reach them before the car drove away going west on Elm.
* after witnessing the above scene, Deputy Craig ran to the
command post at Elm and Houston to re****t the incident to the
authorities. When he got there and asked who was involved in the
investigation, a man turned to him and said "I'm with the Secret
Service." Craig recounted what he had just seen. This "Secret Service"
man showed little interest in Craig's description of the people
leaving, but seemed extremely interested in the description of the
Rambler to the degree this was the only part of the recounting that he
wrote down. (On 12/22/67, Roger Craig learned from Jim Garrison that
this man's name was Edgar Eugene Bradley, a right wing preacher from
North Hollywood, California and part-time assistant to Carl McIntire,
the fundamentalist minister who had founded the American Counsel of
Christian Churches. Then-governor Ronald Reagan refused to grant the
extradition request from Garrison for the indictment of Bradley during
the New Orleans Probe.)
* immediately after this Craig was told by Sheriff Decker to help
the police search the TSBD. Deputy Craig was one of the two people to
find the three rifle cartridges on the floor beneath the window on the
southeast corner of the sixth floor. All three were no more than an
inch apart and all were lined up in the same direction. One of the
three shells was crimped on the end which would have held the slug. It
had not been stepped on but merely crimped over on one small ****tion
of the rim. The rest of that end was perfectly round.
* he was present at when the rifle was found, and, along with
Deputy Eugene Boone who had first spotted the weapon, was immediately
joined by police Lt. Day, Homicide Capt. Fritz, and deputy constable
Seymour Weitzman, an expert on weapons who had been in the s****ting
goods business for many years and was familiar with all domestic and
foreign makes. Lt. Day briefly inspected the rifle and handed it to
Capt. Fritz who asked if anyone knew what kind of rifle it was. After
a close examination, Weitzman declared it to be a 7.65 German Mauser.
Capt. Fritz agreed with him.
* at the moment when Capt. Fritz concurred with Weitzman's
identification of the rifle, an unknown Dallas police officer came
running up the stairs and advised Capt. Fritz that a Dallas policeman
had been shot in the Oak Cliff area. Craig instinctively looked at his
watch. The time was 1:06 p.m. (The Warren Commission attempted to move
this time back beyond 1:15 to plausible claim Oswald had reached the
Tippit murder scene in a more humanly possible time-frame than would
be the case if Tippit had the encounter with his murderer any
earlier.)
* Later in the afternoon Craig received word of Oswald's arrest
and that he was suspected of being involved in the Kennedy's murder.
He immediately thought of the man running down the grassy knoll and
made a telephone call to Capt. Will Fritz to gave him the description
of the man he had seen. Fritz said Craig's description sounded like
the man they had and asked him to come take a look. When he saw Oswald
in Fritz's personal office Deputy Craig confirmed that this was indeed
the man, dressed in the same way, that he had seen running down the
knoll and into the Rambler. They went into the office together and
Fritz told Oswald,
"This man (pointing to me) saw you leave." At which time the
suspect replied, "I told you people I did." Fritz, apparently trying
to console Oswald, said, "Take it easy, son -- we're just trying to
find out what happened." Fritz then said, "What about the car?" Oswald
replied, leaning forward on Fritz' desk, "That station wagon belongs
to Mrs. Paine -- don't try to drag her into this." Sitting back in his
chair, Oswald said very disgustedly and very low, "Everybody will know
who I am now."
The fact that Fritz said car and this elicited Oswald's outburst
about a station wagon -- that no one else had mentioned -- confirms
the veracity of Roger Craig's story.
* junior counsel for the Warren Commission Dave Belin, was the man
who interview Roger Craig in April of 1964. After the being questioned
in what Craig recounts as a very manipulative and selective way, Belin
asked "Do you want to follow or waive your signature or sign now?"
Craig noted, "Since there was nothing but a tape recording and a
stenographer's note book, there was obviously nothing to sign. All
other testimony which I have read (a considerable amount) included an
explanation that the person could waive his signature then or his
statement would be typed and he would be notified when it was ready
for signature. Belin did not say this to me." After Craig first saw
the transcript in January of 1968 he discovered that the testimony he
gave had been in fourteen different places.
Deputy Sheriff Roger Craig never changed his account of what he
witnessed and experienced on Friday, November 22, 1963. (The passage
where he describes the methodology employed by David Belin in
selectively recording his testimony is highly illuminating and
provides us with a glimpse of how the "W.C." interviewed witnesses in
a very controlled way.) He remained convinced, for the rest of this
life, that the man entering the Rambler station wagon was Lee Harvey
Oswald. He was fired from the Sheriff's office on July 4, 1967, and
from that day forward he never again could find steady work. Multiple
attempts were made on his life, his wife finally left him, and in the
end, he was alleged to have shot himself to death on May 15, 1975
