1:03 – According to Manchester, Superintendent Truly notices Oswald’s absence at the TSBD at this time. He tells a policeman, who attempts unsuccessfully to find Captain Fritz to give him this information.

1:04 – McBride states that Oswald “probably left the rooming house at 1:04,” and that the walk to the Tippit murder location is no less than 15 minutes, no matter which route is taken (he himself did the walk many times). McBride also claims that WC investigator David Belin recalled doing the walk in almost 18 minutes, although this was shortened to 11-12 minutes for the official Warren Report. McBride also observes that no witnesses saw Oswald running or walking between his rooming house and the Tippit site.

1:06 – Bugliosi has Deputy Luke Mooney discovering the sniper’s nest here, six minutes before Manchester’s time. It is indeed strange how early events occur in Bugliosi’s timeline compared to other accepted timelines, even those of other “lone nut” theorists like him.

1:06-1:07- Joesten believes Oswald could not have reached his apartment until this time.

1:06-1:07 (WC 3) – Helen Markham is walking south on Patton toward Jefferson on her way to catch the 1:15 bus to work. She arrives at the intersection of 10th and Patton. She sees a man walking away from her, east on 10th street, on the opposite side of the street. Tippit’s patrol car approaches the man very slowly from behind. The car stops and the man comes to the driver’s side window, and they appear to have a friendly conversation. In “a few minutes” the suspect leaps backward. Tippit calmly exits his car. The suspect walks toward the front of the car and shoots Tippit three times. Tippit falls to the ground and the suspect walks calmly away, fooling with his gun. The suspect stares straight at Markham, then breaks into a trot, running towards Jefferson, holding his gun. Later she says the suspect “wasn’t in no hurry” as he left the scene. After the shooting, Markham physically covers her face with her hands out of fear, and is not actually looking at the shooter for a period of time.

Markham tells the Commission that she is a bad judge of distances and cannot accurately tell how far away the suspect was. Markham is the first suspect to arrive at Tippit’s body. She is “screaming and hollering” as she tries to save his life. Tippit attempts to speak to her. She refuses to tell the Commission how many feet away the suspect was, because she has no experience measuring feet. She later identifies Oswald as the suspect because his eyes looked wild and glassy. Markham has little memory of the man who arrived next to the scene, but thinks he was in a truck. She does not know if he was the one who radioed the police.

In her comically exasperating testimony, she describes the police lineup at 4:00 of that day (Oswald was #2 in the lineup). Assistant Counsel Joseph Ball asks Markham six times whether she recognized anyone
