It is at the press conference of DA Henry Wade. A reporter asks him "Where are you going to move him to on Sunday?"
So, by Friday night, it was already known that they were going to do the jail transfer on Sunday? And not just known by the police, but a reporter already knew it?
But, what Amy found is that in the written transcript of the press conference, the reporter's question became, "Where are you going to move him on Monday?"
And as I listen to the audio, it sounds to me like they may have deliberately lowered the volume when the guy says Sunday, although he definitely said Sunday.
But actually, it makes sense that they would have had it planned that early because there were things they had to do. Somebody had to contact Karen Carlin about requesting a Western Union wire from Ruby on Sunday morning- to put him close to the police garage. They had to have the scopolamine on hand, and it's not like you can buy it on the drug store, or even on the street for that matter. George Senator had to be groomed for his role. And maybe there were others at the Carousel Club who played some role in it, if only as spies.
So, why would they want to hide it that by late Friday it was already in the hopper? I think it's because they wanted people to think that the decision was made on Saturday, and probably late Saturday.
The most likely thing is that this was Plan B, and it went into effect the moment Oswald was taken alive at the Texas Theater. Plan A was that he would be killed there. But, as soon as it was known that that failed, the other plan, to murder Oswald during a jail transfer, went into effect. And Ruby, of course, was just their patsy.
