Wesley Frazier's testimony about where he was and where Lovelady was at the time of the shooting just doesn't make sense.

Mr. BALL - When you stood out on the front looking at the parade, where was Shelley standing and where was Lovelady standing with reference to you? 

Mr. FRAZIER - Well, see, I was standing, like I say, one step down from the top, and Mr. Shelley was standing, you know, back from the top step and over toward the side of the wall there. See, he was standing right over there, and then Billy was a couple of steps down from me over toward more the wall also. 

(Cinque: But, Doorman was standing on the top level and in the center, as we can see in the Wiegman film.)





Mr. BALL - We have got a picture taken the day of the parade and it shows the President's car going by. Now, take a look at that picture. Can you see your picture any place there? 

Mr. FRAZIER - No, sir; I don't, because I was back up in this more or less black area here. 

(Cinque: A moment before he said he was one step down from the top.)

Mr. BALL - I see. 

Mr. FRAZIER - Because Billy, like I say, is two or three steps down in front of me.

(Cinque: But, Doorman is standing on the top level.)

Mr. BALL - Do you recognize this fellow?
Mr. FRAZIER - That is Billy, that is Billy Lovelady.
Mr. BALL - Billy?
Mr. FRAZIER - Right
Mr. BALL - Let's take a marker and make an arrow down that way. That mark is Billy Lovelady?
Mr. FRAZIER - Right.
Mr. BALL - That is where you told us you were standing a moment ago.
Mr. FRAZIER - Right.
Mr. BALL - [Lovelady was]in front of you to the right over to the wall?
Mr. FRAZIER - Yes.
Mr. BALL - Is this a Commission exhibit?
We will make this Commission Exhibit No. 369.

Cinque: Granted, in the Altgens photo, Doorman looks like he's standing over by the wall, but we know he wasn't, and I particularly know that he wasn't. That's because I have stood there trying to duplicate the Altgens photo, and I know very well that anyone who actually stood next to that wall would have been cut out of the Altgens photo completely. Here is how it broke down:


Notice that Doorman's right shoulder is partially obscured by the curtain, and if he had been any more westward, he'd have been more obscured or totally obscured. Certainly if he were over by the wall as described by Frazier, he would have been completely invisible to Altgens. 

So, Doorman was NOT over by the wall. It only looks like he was in the Altgens photo, and we can see that he wasn't in the Wiegman film. And I confirmed all that when I was in Dealey Plaza.
