For instance, did you know that Roy Vaughan went on to become a Chief of Police? He didn't mention Dallas, so maybe it was somewhere else.
And, it turns out that Ruby's "Sparky" had nothing to do with him being explosive and violent. It was a reference to his favorite cartoon when he was a kid where there was a horse named Sparky.
And, he produced this close-up image of Oswald's sweater.
These are supposed to be Leavelle's handcuffs that connected him to Oswald:
That's not how they look in the Jackson photo:
But, one thing he did do which I like is point out that there is NO CHANCE that Ruby shot Oswald by order of the Mob. And the word he used was "hired", that some claim that Ruby was hired by the Mob to do it. Well, that isn't right because nobody has ever claimed that Ruby shot Oswald for money, nor is there any evidence of money being given to him to shoot Oswald. Oh Occam! Sharpen your razor! There is a throat that need slitting. But, at least this guy did point out the absurdity of Jack Ruby having any intention whatsoever of shooting Oswald. He pointed out that Oswald's transfer was scheduled for 10:00, so wouldn't he have showed up on time? He claims that Ruby was sleeping until close to 10 and was woken up by Karen Carlin's call, pleading with him for $25. The timing of all that is very much in doubt. Then this guy repeats the claim that Ruby killed half an hour by going to Dealey Plaza to view the flower displays left for Kennedy. I have looked for and not found any evidence of Jack Ruby having claimed that. Here's his WC testimony. See if you can find it there.

So, that was added to the story to kill some time; to push back Ruby's time at WU and subsequently at the police garage to 11:20. In fact, he was there much earlier, and in the above WC testimony, he initially claimed it was 10:15 that he was at WU.
But, it is true that if Ruby had any intention of shooting Oswald, on his own behest or on someone else's behest, he certainly would have gotten to the garage by 10.
And do you realize how close the timeline is? Supposedly, the money wire wasn't sent until 11:18. Then, he had to finish up, leave, and then walk to the Main Street ramp. The guy who made this video made the walk at an appropriate walking speed, and he said that it took him 2 minutes. So, that would push the time of arrival to 11:20. Then, it was a rather long ramp to walk down, and Ruby said he just strolled.
What it all adds up to is Ruby getting there right at the moment that Oswald was being brought out. His lingering time is reduced to mere seconds. And supposedly, the sight of Oswald twisted a nerve in his brain; he went berserk, pulled his gun, and shot him. But, it makes no sense because NOBODY'S PENDULUM SWINGS THAT FAST. By his own admission, Ruby wasn't even thinking about Oswald. He never said why he walked down the ramp, and that's because HE DIDN'T KNOW WHY HE WALKED DOWN THE RAMP. He had no reason to do it. And the idea that suddenly seeing Oswald would cause him to do the worst thing that any human being can do is preposterous. If that's how he was, then why didn't he shoot Oswald on Friday night?
Here's the link to the video. As I said, the guy is completely in the dark, but still, he found some interesting stuff.
