Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Let's do a physical comparison between Jack Ruby and James Bookhout. Ruby was taller 5'9"; Bookhout was shorter 5'6". Ruby was relatively slender at the time, while Bookhout was pudgy. Ruby's face was relatively gaunt while Bookhout's was round and full. Their hair was very different, but Bookhout wore a rug at the Garage Spectacle. That isn't his real hair on the right. Bookhout wore light socks that day whereas Ruby wore black socks, as we can see in his mug shot. And that was one of those "fall through the cracks" things. You plan a ruse like this, and you just can't address everything. You slip-up. Now, these two are most certainly NOT the same man. It is insane to say they are.
