if that was the case, weaver would have been convicted on the arresting charge, as well as murder, he was not. The state government wanted to try the killer of mrs weaver, they would not do that unless they believe egregious harm had been done.
The US would not have settled a wrongful death suit in Weavers favor if those were the facts. I would rather go on the testimony under oath of the various proceedings otherwise there was only one shooter in Dallas 1963.
thanx,
