Episode 7 - Forgotten Witnesses & Unguarded Points of Entry

Send a textAlfreadia Riggs... Harold Fuqua... they are just some of the witnesses to the lead up to Lee Oswald's shooting who were completely overlooked by the Dallas Police investigation but had some interesting accounts to share. And while they were interviewed by the FBI and, later, the Warren Commission, their movements on that morning demonstrated how poorly sealed the Dallas City Hall basement was ahead of Oswald's transfer. Also, did you know that Tom Howard, Jack Ruby's first attorney after he shot Oswald, was actually present in the basement at the time of the shooting?In this episode, we'll lay out the geography of the City Hall and its Annex Building to highlight how 'non-secure' both buildings actually were that morning - setting the conditions perfectly for how Jack Ruby would come to shoot Lee Oswald. About my book, appearances on podcasts and general updates, check out my website.
