Policeman murdered in Dallas, Texas on the same day as JFK was assassinated, 22 November 1963. The connect to the plot is unclear. |
Official narrative
J. D. Tippit was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald.
Concerns
Jim Garrison suggests that cartridges had been previously obtained from Oswald’s .38 revolver and left at the murder site by the real killers as part of the setup to incriminate Oswald. He notes that of the four cartridges found at the scene, two were Winchesters and two were Remingtons — but of the four bullets found in Officer Tippit’s body, three were Winchesters and one was a Remington.[1]
Motives
Tippit's body may have been useful in faking the JFK autopsy photos.
