So, that's the pedestal that Toni and her mother stood on. It's pretty darn high. Still, it is weird to think that the mother stood in front and Toni in back. I can't imagine any parent doing that. How could she keep Toni from falling backward? But, if she had Toni in front with her arms around, she could prevent her from falling in any direction. Plus, Toni would get to see better.
Toni certainly seems larger than an 11 year old girl on the left.
She didn't come forward until April 2012. So, nobody knew who the Girl in Blue was until then? That's interesting. This is from a statement that she made:
I went back to my cement block before they turned onto Houston. When the limo passed he looked up, waved and smiled. Then he turned the corner and a couple of seconds later, his head exploded. There is a column that blocked my view
for a couple of seconds, but then the car reappeared and bang. From my
perspective, the plume of brains and blood sparkled a little in the Texas
sun. I told my mom someone threw sparklers in the car!!!!
So, she claims that she was on the pedestal before the limo turned onto Houston. In that case, we should see her in Weaver.
I realize that that is a mess, but we know what we're looking for. Is that her?
No, that can't be her. How could she loom so large in Hughes and register so small in Weaver? That doesn't makes sense. There should be some pretty good continuity between the two because the distances were about the same. And you notice of course that Carl Jones is the solitary figure on the west side of the doorway. You don't see Doorman, and where's Popeye from Wiegman?
You can't assume that the doorway images amongst the various films and photos correlate for the simple reason that they don't. Stop trying to do a tit for tat because you can't. No two doorway images are the same. Each one contradicts every other one. There are no two that are the same.
Obviously, Dr. Glover didn't remember it exactly right. She said that the limo rounded the corner and then a couple of seconds later, his head exploded. His head didn't explode until the fatal head shot, which was the last shot. Wasn't it just yesterday that Robin Unger said that there were 9 seconds between the Hughes doorway and Altgens/Wiegman? (which were practically simultaneous; only 1/9 second between them according to Dale Myers). Of course, Robin was shooting the bull on that one; it wasn't 9 seconds. But, neither was it 2 seconds from the time he rounded the corner until his head was blown off.
As far as I know, this is the only other picture of her, and it is from the Dorman film:
Wait a second. She said that she was on the pedestal from the time the limo turned onto Houston. But, she is standing on the grass there with her mother, and that is Houston. And as you watch the film, it seems to be closer to Main than to Elm. In other words, the limo travels quite a bit more beyond them before it starts turning onto Elm. But, the pedestal is at Elm. So, what, did she her mother run up and climb atop the pedestal in the midst of the motorcade? But, she said that she was on the pedestal all along.
That settles it. I am going to have to talk to her. Dr. Glover is going to be getting a call from Dr. Cinque.
