Shaw Jurors Hear Testimony In Conflict With Warren Report
In New Orleans, former Dallas deputy Roger Dean Craig testified that Lee Harvey Oswald left the Texas School Book Depository front and fled in a station wagon, contradicting the Warren report. He described a dark complexioned man entering a green station wagon with out of state plates after pursuing the vehicle. The Shaw trial centers on a 1963 conspiracy with Oswald and Ferrie, not the assassination itself. A judge allowed autopsy photos and X rays from the National Archives to be reviewed, citing their relevance to Shaw’s case.
