Oswald on the Run
Shortly after his encounter with Officer Baker in the second-floor lunchroom, Oswald was on his way out the front door of the Texas School Book Depository Building. He walked seven blocks east on Elm Street and boarded a bus headed for Oak Cliff. Cecil McWatters, the bus driver, testified a man banged on the door at an intersection, not a bus stop. McWatters opened the door, the man got on, paid the fare of twenty-three cents, and sat down. The bus traveled two blocks back in the direction of the TSBD, then became stuck in traffic. The man got up, asked for a transfer, and asked to get off. McWatters could not positively identify the man as Oswald, but the transfer ticket was in his pocket at the time of his arrest. McWatters identified the transfer, the punch hole character was his exclusively. Why Oswald chose this bizarre route of escape is unclear, but his immediate destination was his rooming house in Oak Cliff.
Let us return for a moment to the narrative of Roger Craig, the Dallas County Sheriff's Deputy, and Mary Bledsoe, Oswald's landlady from October 7 to October 12, whose testimony was in conflict with Craig's. The conspirators painted Mrs. Bledsoe as a doting old woman, incapable of function without an afternoon nap, and an unreliable witness, while Craig, a decorated member of the Sheriff's office with an exemplary record, a trained law enforcement professional, and an unimpeachable witness was elevated to hero status. The Warren camp suggested Craig, an uneducated cow hand, a run-away at twelve years old, was mistaken since Oswald boarded the same bus Mary Bledsoe took to Oak Cliff. As previously mentioned, Mrs. Bledsoe harbored a dislike of Oswald, a dislike that Mark Lane suggested was irrational (as if dislikes between people must be rational) but, because of her aversion to Oswald, the abrupt turn of her head to avoid eye contact was a reasonable reaction, and, in my view, indicates a positive identification.
Mark Lane, the smoke belching challenger to the Warren Commission's final conclusion, wrote, "Mrs. Bledsoe's statements can scarcely be said to establish that Oswald was on the bus." Lane based this statement on testimony from other witnesses who did not describe a man who looked 'like a maniac' or appeared disturbed, as Mrs. Bledsoe testified. Further, Lane argued that Mrs. Bledsoe was unable to identify a shirt Oswald was wearing during her testimony before the Warren commission, a shirt she correctly identified previously as having a hole in the right sleeve. However, the identification of another human being is primarily accomplished by facial recognition and her identification of Oswald cannot be discounted. For this reason, the conflicting testimony of Roger Craig and Mary Bledsoe, to this day, is a point of debate.
Oswald, from the intersection of Lamar and Jackson Streets, hailed a cab driven by William Whaley at 12:48 to take him to Oak Cliff. Whaley, a World War ll veteran and Navy Cross recipient, drove Oswald to the vicinity of his rooming house but Oswald, in an attempt at intrigue, asked to be dropped several blocks away. Whaley did not think any more about this fare until he saw Oswald's picture in the paper the next day.
Mark Lane wrote, "Whaley recalled the 'slow way he walked up. He didn't talk. He wasn't in a hurry. He wasn't nervous or anything.'" Further, during the lineup attended by Whaley, Lane wrote, "Whaley stated that he 'could have picked him out without identifying him by just listening to him because he was bawling out the policeman, telling them it wasn't right to put him in line with those teenagers ... he showed no respect for the policemen ...you wouldn't have had to have known who it was to have picked him out by the way he acted.'" Lane, with a lawyer's flare for exaggeration and lingual trickery, left out one key component of Whaley's testimony:
Mr. BALL. Did that aid you in the identification of the man? (Oswald's behavior)
Mr. WHALEY. No, sir; it wouldn't have at all, except that I said anybody who wasn't sure could have picked out the right one just for that. It didn't aid me because I knew he was the right one as soon as I saw him.
Mr. BALL. You don't think that that in any way influenced your identification?
Mr. WHALEY. No, sir; it did not. When you drive a taxi, sir, as long as I have, you can almost look at a man, in fact, you have to, to be able to tell whether you can trust or whether you can't trust him, what he is.
William Whaley drove Oswald to Oak Cliff from downtown.
Rearmed and Dangerous
Oswald arrived at his rooming house on North Beckley at 1:00 that afternoon, changed his trousers, retrieved a light-colored jacket, and stuffed a .38 Smith and Wesson revolver inside his trousers. His landlady, Earlene Roberts, testified he entered hurriedly and said nothing. Mrs. Roberts said, "My, you are in a hurry." Oswald ignored her and went to his room where he stayed, according to Roberts, for three or four minutes. Oswald left abruptly, in the same manner as his arrival. At the time Oswald was in his room, a strange event occurred:
Mr. BALL. Did a police car pass the house there and honked?
Mrs. ROBERTS. Yes.
Mr. BALL. When was that?
Mrs. ROBERTS. He came in the house.
Mr. BALL. When he came in the house ?
Mrs. ROBERTS. When he came in the house and went to his room, you know how the sidewalk runs?
Mr. BALL. Yes.
Mrs. ROBERTS. Right direct in front of that door-there was a police car stopped and honked. I had worked for some policemen and sometimes they come by and tell me something that maybe their wives would want me to know, and I thought it was them, and I just glanced out and saw the number, and I said, "Oh, that's not their car," for I knew their car.
Mr. BALL. You mean, it was not the car of the policemen you knew?
Mrs. ROBERTS. It wasn't the police car I knew, because their number was 170 and it wasn't 170 and I ignored it.
Mr. BALL. And who was in the car?
Mrs. ROBERTS. I don't know--I didn't pay any attention to it after I noticed it wasn't them-I didn't.
Mr. BALL. Where was it parked ?
Mrs. ROBERTS. It was parked in front of the house.
Mr. BALL. At 1026 North Beckley?
Mrs. ROBERTS. And then they just eased on--the way it is- and they just went on around the corner that way.
The arrival of a police car outside Oswald's rooming house during the brief time frame he was inside remains, without question, very strange. It has led to accusations that Dallas Police were involved in a conspiracy to aid Oswald's escape and, even more unbelievably, suggestions that J.D. Tippit was the officer in the car outside the rooming house.
Additionally, Mrs. Roberts testified:
Mr. BALL. Did this police car stop directly in front of your house?
Mrs. ROBERTS. Yes--it stopped directly in front of my house and it just "tip-tip" and that's the way Officer Alexander and Charles Burnely would do when they stopped, and I went to the door and looked and saw it wasn't their number.
Mr. BALL. Where was Oswald when this happened?
Mrs. ROBERTS. In his room.
Dale Myers, in his book, With Malice, Lee Harvey Oswald and The Murder of Officer J.D. Tippit, offered a different version of events surrounding the strange police car in front of Oswald's rooming house. Quite simply, Myers asserted, it was a total fabrication by Earlene Roberts. Myers wrote, "In assessing Mrs. Roberts' credibility, it is worth noting that she didn't mention the police car until five days after the assassination." The most alarming evidence was given by the owner of the rooming house, Gladys Johnson.
She told the Warren Commission:
Mr. BALL. Miss Earlene Roberts was your housekeeper at this time?
Mrs. JOHNSON. Yes, she was.
Mr. BALL. How long have you known her?
Mrs. JOHNSON. I have known Mrs. Roberts, oh, I guess it was 6 years, something like that, 6 years.
Mr. BALL. Where did you first meet her?
Mrs. JOHNSON. I hired her as a housekeeper.
Mr. BALL. At 1026 North Beckley?
Mrs. JOHNSON. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. Has she been working for you for that period of time?
Mrs. JOHNSON. No, sir; I let Mrs. Roberts go a time or two, then I would hire her back.
Mr. BALL. Was there some reason why you let her go?
Mrs. JOHNSON. Well, she would just get to being disagreeable with renters and I don't know, she has a lot of handicaps. She has an overweight problem, and she has some habits that some people have to understand to tolerate.
Mr. BALL. What are they?
Mrs. JOHNSON. Talking, just sitting down and making up tales, you know, have you ever seen people like that? Just have a creative mind, there's nothing to it, and just make up and keep talking until she just makes a lie out of it. Listen, I'm telling you the truth and this isn't to go any further, understand that? You have to know these things because you are going to question this lady. I will tell you, she's just as intelligent--I think she is a person that doesn't mean to do that but she just does it automatically. It seems as though that she, oh, I don't know, wants to be attractive or something at times. I just don't know; I don't understand it myself. I only wish I did.
Former Dallas Morning News reporter Hugh Aynesworth, according to a Myers interview, recalled, "She never mentioned anything about a police car, any noise, anything else. She couldn't see. I had been there and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there three or four times before." She admitted to Aynesworth, according to Myers, she suffered from glaucoma.
Myers further explained, the two names given in testimony by Mrs. Roberts, Officers Alexander and Burnley, did not check out. Burnley claimed to have never met her and Alexander had not been on the force since 1957.
Jim Marrs, award winning journalist and lecturer, in his many videos, indicated Oswald was driven to the Texas Theatre in this police car.
Oswald left his rooming house sometime shortly after 1:00 and was last seen by Mrs. Roberts at a bus stop across the street.
Dallas Police Officer, J.D. Tippit
The Murder of J.D. Tippit
No eyewitness testimony explained how Lee Harvey Oswald left his rooming house, on 1026 North Beckley, and arrived at the corner of 10th and Patton Streets. Mark Lane suggested the lack of witnesses to Oswald's walking route proved his innocence. In all probability, the residents of Oak Cliff, as news of the assassination filtered through the area, remained indoors glued to their television sets.
The distance between the two addresses is nine-tenths of a mile and the time given to cover this distance is generally accepted as fifteen minutes. Conspirators claim it cannot be done. Since the route Oswald traveled is unknown, re-creations of the event, indeed, have been accomplished under the allotted time. In fact, the author followed the accepted route in under fourteen minutes.

What happened next is subject for debate. What caused J.D. Tippit to stop and talk to Oswald? The description of the President's killer had been released, white male, approximately 30 years old, slender build, 5 feet 10 inches tall, 165 pounds, not exactly a specific description and, in a time when the average American male was much lighter, this description probably matched most of the white male population of Dallas between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-five. There must have been some reason why Tippit called Oswald over to the side of his car and that reason must be Oswald did something suspicious.
Tippit pulled his car to the curb and called Oswald over. Many conspirators have suggested this never happened because the passenger side front window was rolled up; however, the smaller vent window was open and Oswald could have easily communicated with Tippit via this opening. Oswald placed both hands on the roof of Tippit's car, leaned over, and spoke no longer than ten to fifteen seconds. Something in Oswald's conversation was suspect. Tippit exited his car, probably to check Oswald's ID, as he had in many previous routine interrogations, and stepped towards the front of his car. Oswald pulled the revolver from under his jacket and fired three shots into Tippit's chest. Oswald walked over to the prone body of Officer Tippit and fired another bullet into his temple.
Oswald, as he fled the scene, emptied the spent shell casings into his left hand and threw them into a bush next to an apartment building on the corner of 10th and Patton Streets. The casings were recovered by witnesses at the scene and turned over to police. One cannot help wondering why Oswald picked that particular time to reload when flight from the scene as quickly and as unobtrusively as possible was his only hope of escape. Four .38 caliber bullets were recovered from Officer Tippit's body, four empty casings were found at the scene, and, one would guess, Oswald had two remaining unfired rounds in his revolver. A reload of a revolver with two live rounds in the cylinder is not difficult but, under the stress of having killed a police officer and flight from the scene, Oswald had to open the cylinder from the frame, let the two unfired rounds fall into his hand, place these two rounds in his pocket, eject the four spent casings, throw them away, then reload six live rounds. Precious time Oswald did not have. Oswald was seen fleeing towards Jefferson Boulevard as one witness, Ted Callaway, described, with the revolver "in the raised pistol position."
The Murder of Officer Tippit. JFK Assassination Forum
Witnesses Galore
The murder of Officer J.D. Tippit remains a crucial point of fact in the study of the assassination of President Kennedy and the conspirators have struggled for over fifty years to disprove Oswald's guilt in this dirty deed. The leading cynics, Mark Lane and Jim Marrs, tried to establish the timeline for Oswald's travel from his rooming house to the murder scene as unworkable. The fact remains that there is no exact timeline, Earlene Roberts claimed Oswald was in the rooming house for three or four minutes. The retrieval of a jacket and handgun probably required only seconds, not minutes. Even if Oswald changed his trousers, as he told police, the entire stay in the rooming house was probably under one minute.
The conspiracy community has always attempted to place Oswald somewhere other than 10th and Patton at the time of the murder of Officer Tippit. The most fanciful assertion comes from Jim Marrs, in his book Crossfire, who claimed Oswald was in the Texas theatre before the time of the shooting. This information came to Marrs during an interview with theatre employee, Butch Burroughs, the candy concession clerk, who claimed to have sold popcorn to Oswald. Burroughs' testimony before the Warren Commission was contradictory to Marrs' wild assertions. Burroughs never told the Warren Commission of ever seeing Oswald enter the theatre, never mentioned selling him popcorn, and, prior Oswald's arrest, returned to his kiosk to stock candy.
Burroughs testified before the Warren Commission on April 8, 1964, and, as one could reasonably assume a witness called to testify would be aware of the historical significance of the proceeding, Burroughs did not mention selling a ticket or popcorn to Oswald because, as he later admitted, "they (the Warren Commission) never asked me." From reading Butch Burroughs' testimony, I am not sure he knew the name Lee Harvey Oswald. Butch Burroughs, as Jim Marrs related, had to be prompted to remember the popcorn sale.
Jim Marrs referred to Burroughs as the Texas Theatre assistant manager. To claim Butch Burroughs was assistant manager is something of a smoke screen to enhance his credibility. Perhaps, a hundred years from now, the conspirators will explain the position of Butch Burroughs as CEO of RKO Theatres.
Comments by Butch Burroughs:
Mark Lane attacked the credibility of the key witness to the killing of Officer Tippit, Helen Markham. Lane cited questionable identification of the jacket Oswald was wearing, claimed Mrs. Markham was incapable of recognizing Oswald in a line-up because she was hysterical to the point of unconsciousness, and her testimony before the Warren Commission about the line-up was contradictory.
Mr. BALL. Did you recognize anyone in the lineup?
Mrs. MARKHAM. No, sir.
Mr. BALL. You did not? Did you see anybody--I have asked you that question before did you recognize anybody from their face?
Mrs. MARKHAM. From their face, no.
Mr. BALL. Did you identify anybody in these four people?
Mrs. MARKHAM. I didn't know nobody.
Mr. BALL. I know you didn't know anybody, but did anybody in that lineup look like anybody you had seen before?
Mrs. MARKHAM. No. I had never seen none of them, none of these men.
Mr. BALL. No one of the four?
Mrs. MARKHAM. No one of them.
Mr. BALL. No one of all four?
Mrs. MARKHAM. No, sir.
It does appear that Helen Markham could not pick Oswald out of the line-up and her testimony was being manipulated by Mr. Ball:
Mr. BALL. Was there a number two man in there?
Mrs. MARKHAM. Number two is the one I picked.
Mr. BALL. Well, I thought you just told me that you hadn't--
Mrs. MARKHAM. I thought you wanted me to describe their clothing.
Mr. BALL. No. I wanted to know if that day when you were in there if you saw anyone in there--
Mrs. MARKHAM. Number two.
Mr. BALL. What did you say when you saw number two?
Mrs. MARKHAM. Well, let me tell you. I said the second man, and they kept asking me which one, which one. I said, number two. When I said number two, I just got weak.
Mr. BALL. What about number two, what did you mean when you said number two?
Mrs. MARKHAM. Number two was the man I saw shoot the policeman.
Mr. BALL. You recognized him from his appearance?
Mrs. MARKHAM. I asked--I looked at him. When I saw this man, I wasn't sure, but I had cold chills just run all over me.
Mark Lane wrote, "A mystical identification at best." Lane, in a March 2, 1964, telephone conversation with Helen Markham, a conversation recorded without her consent or knowledge, revealed Markham's testimony that Oswald's killer was "a short man, somewhat on the heavy side, with slightly bushy hair." Lane asserted this testimony, from a key witness, "clearly described a man other than Oswald as Tippit's murderer." But does this confirm Lane's assertion that Oswald was innocent?
Using the same language sorcery as Lane, I suggest the following conclusion is equally compelling:
1. Oswald was of average height and, to a person across the street, a man walking down the street or bending over a police car, might appear short.
2. A skinny man might appear 'somewhat on the heavy side' while wearing a zip-up jacket. An open, unzipped jacket could, indeed, make a person appear heavier.
3. Oswald's hair might have appeared bushy from his flight. In addition, Lane's assertion that Oswald's hair was thinning, and receding suggests a balding man, at least a man with much less hair than Oswald.
This phone conversation can only be described as a trick to expunge the testimony of a key witness and Lane's comments from his book, much of which was conjecture, essentially condemned Helen Markham as a liar. As with Lane's attempt to discredit Mary Bledsoe, one key piece of testimony cannot be overlooked, Markham's statement that, "when I saw this man, I wasn't sure, but I had cold chills run all over me."
Lane went to exceptional lengths to discredit the testimony of witnesses to the Tippit murder. He was particularly scathing in his comments regarding the inability of the witnesses to identify evidence, articles of clothing Oswald wore, bullet shells turned over to police, the timing of events, even the people present at the time of the shooting. Lane offered an incredibly presumptuous proposition to his readers by suggesting, "... the impression of a witness seeing a man in flight, briefly and for the first time, is quite naturally of dubious reliability." This causes one to question if the case of Roger Craig should be judged under the same scrutiny.
There are witnesses that Lane failed to mention. He stated Ted Callaway, a used car salesman and a witness to Oswald's flight after the shooting, was unsure of the color of the jacket Oswald was wearing. In fact, Callaway's description of the jacket was very close.
Mr. BALL. I have a jacket here Commission's Exhibit No. 162. Does this look anything like the jacket that the man had on that you saw across the street with a gun?
Mr. CALLAWAY. Yes; it sure does. Yes, that is the same type jacket. Actually, I thought it had a little more tan to it.
Mr. BALL. Same type?
Mr. CALLAWAY. Yes.
Lane suggested Callaway's testimony was in error when it was remarkably close. Lane failed to mention Callaway's physical description of Tippit's killer.
Mr. BALL. What kind--when you talked to the police officers before you saw this man, did you give them a description of the clothing he had on?
Mr. CALLAWAY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. What did you tell them you saw?
Mr. CALLAWAY. I told them he had some dark trousers and a light tanish gray windbreaker jacket, and I told him that he was fair complexion, dark hair.
Mr. BALL. Tell them the size?
Mr. CALLAWAY. Yes; I told them--I think I told them about 5'10"--
Mr. DULLES. Did you see his front face at any time, or did you only have a side view of him?
Mr. CALLAWAY. He looked right at me, sir. When I called to him, he looked right at me.
Mr. DULLES. You saw front face?
Mr. CALLAWAY. Yes.
Callaway positively identified Oswald in a line-up as did the porter from his car lot, Sam Guinyard. Guinyard's testimony was quite accurate, as well.
Mr. BALL. How was this man dressed that had the pistol in his hand?
Mr. GUINYARD. He had on a pair of black britches and a brown shirt and a little sort of light-gray-looking jacket.
Guinyard identified Oswald in the line-up without hesitation.
Mr. BALL. After they brought them in and after you looked at them, what did you tell the police officers?
Mr. GUINYARD. I told them that was him right there---I pointed him out right there. That was him right there.
It is understandable that Mark Lane failed to mention any of this testimony in his book. He had no client to protect, he had only his own self-serving interests to protect.
A you-tube video of Ted Callaway.
Another important witness was William Scoggins, a cab driver, who had stopped near the corner of 10th and Patton and was having a coke and a sandwich in his car. Scoggins, in his Warren Commission testimony, observed Oswald shoot Officer Tippit and leave the scene.
Mr. DULLES. At this point do you recall whether he was running or walking or what pace was he going at?
Mr. SCOGGINS. He was going at a kind of lope.
Mr. DULLES. Lope?
Mr. SCOGGINS. Yes, what you might call a little trot. He did not seem in too big a hurry, but he wasn't walking.
Another piece of testimony from Scoggins indicated Oswald muttered to himself, "poor damn cop or poor dumb cop."
Mark Lane suggested, "Although he did not witness the shooting because there was some shrubbery between the gunman and his cab, his testimony contradicted Mrs. Markham's and tended to suggest that Oswald could not have killed Tippit." Scoggins' testimony suggested nothing of the kind. Warren Commission exhibit 532, a picture of the view Scoggins had from inside his cab, does have some low shrubbery in view that, that reportedly was cut back before the photo was taken, but to claim Scoggins did not see the shooting of Tippit is conjecture. We do know that Scoggins identified Oswald fleeing the scene with revolver in hand after the shooting. Further, Lane suggested, if Oswald was walking west on 10th Street, he could not have murdered Tippit because there was not enough time to get to the scene from the rooming house by coming from that direction. Once again, we are asked to accept as fact presumption about the unknown.
Scoggins picked Oswald out of a line-up on Saturday, November 23, 1963.
Mr. BELIN. How many people were in the lineup, if you can remember?
Mr. SCOGGINS. Four.
Mr. BELIN. Four? Did any one of the people look anything like - strike that. Did you identify anyone in the lineup?
Mr. SCOGGINS. I identified the one we are talking about, Oswald. I identified him.
Mr. BELIN. You didn't know his name as Oswald at that time, did you, or did you not?
Mr. SCOGGINS. Yes, the next day I did. But, of course I didn't know what his name was the day that I picked him out.
Helen Markham, eyewitness to Officer Tippit's murder
Oswald's Arrest
Oswald's flight following the murder of Officer Tippit led him to remove his jacket, throw it under a car in a used car lot, then continue down Jefferson Boulevard. His ultimate destination, if he had one, is unknown. The conspirators have advanced various theories of Oswald's intended escape route, implicating the Dallas Police, the CIA, pro and anti-Castro Cubans, and the KGB as possible collaborators in crime. The most bizarre suggestion of Oswald's escape route is that he was on his way to be flown out of the country by the CIA, in an airplane piloted by David Ferrie. (More on Ferrie to follow)
Oswald, with police cars in evidence, ducked into the alcove of a shoe store to avoid detection. From the inside of the store, Johnny Brewer, the store manager, noticed something odd about the man looking at shoes in his store window. The man was disheveled, frantic, and fearful, but, to Johnny Brewer, the man was hiding, perhaps from the police. As Brewer listened to events unfold on a radio in his store, he realized the man in the alcove was possibly wanted in connection with the shooting of a police officer.
As the sound of police car sirens faded down Jefferson Boulevard, the man in the alcove walked away. Johnny Brewer, in an act of courage, followed the man towards the Texas Theatre and watched as the man quickly ducked inside. The cashier, Julia Postal, stood near the street and watched the commotion as Brewer approached. "Did that guy, the one who just walked in, did he buy a ticket?" Brewer asked. Postal turned to him, "No, he sure didn't." Brewer asked her to call the police and tell them the man they were looking for in Oak Cliff was in the theatre.
Jim Marrs, the award-winning journalist and conspirator, as previously mentioned, maintained Oswald was already through a bag of popcorn when J.D. Tippit was gunned down. Brewer pointed out Oswald to police and, as Officer Nick McDonald told Oswald to stand up, Mark Lane's alleged innocent client, struck McDonald in the face with his left fist, thrust a revolver into his stomach, and pulled the trigger. McDonald stated the revolver misfired. Oswald was beaten around the head, abruptly handcuffed, and thrown in the back seat of a police car.
Interview with Officer McDonald and Detective Bently
Jim Marrs argued Oswald's revolver misfired because of a damaged firing pin but, the firearms panel for the House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded, in 1979, the weapon was in 'good working condition.' (HSCA testimony cited for those who mistrust the Warren Commission) Marrs, in his book Crossfire, wrote that two men were arrested in the Texas Theatre, Oswald inside the theatre, and another man at the back door leading to an alley. He stated in a different presentation the second man arrested was an Oswald look-alike. This, like many events in his book, never happened. The person that corroborated this information to this author was Johnny Brewer.
Another interesting fact was learned by this author regarding award winning journalist, Jim Marrs, during my phone interview with Johnny Brewer. Marrs never interviewed Johnny Brewer. This omission is odd considering Warren Commission member and former President, Gerald Ford, testified to his belief that the murder of J.D. Tippit was a vital component to the assassination, "a hallmark of the critics of the Warren Commission." There can be no doubt that Brewer's role in Oswald's capture was the most important event in the case against Oswald for the murder of J.D. Tippit. I attempted to contact Jim Marrs regarding this oversight, he did not respond to my queries and, now that he has passed away, we may never know.
Brewer's name does not appear in the credits for Oliver Stone's movie, JFK, at least, not in the copy I regrettably purchased from Amazon Prime. Additionally, Brewer's name does not appear in the credits posted by the on-line database, IMDb, in the list of the complete cast.
Oswald's arrest from Texas Theatre
