The FBI warped the interviews of both men and the Warren Commission avoided them like the plague because they prove JFK was being shot at from behind the fence line on the Grassy Knoll. - Robert Morrow 3/6/25

Calvin Dodd, who along with S.M. Holland was standing on the Triple Overpass
with a Bird’s Eye view of the JFK assassination and the Grassy Knoll.
Railroad Worker Richard Dodd
- Witness to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy
QUOTE
Railroad worker Richard Calvin Dodd was
standing on top of the triple underpass, in front of John F. Kennedy's
presidential motorcade on Elm Street LANE. Did you see anything which might
indicate to you where the shots came from? DODD. Well, we all four seen about
the same thing. The shots, the smoke came from behind the hedge on the north
side of the plaza. And a motorcycle policeman dropped his motorcycle in the
street with his gun in his hand and run up the embankment to the hedge. And
then I went North to look around the corner to see if there is anyone behind
the hedge and met special agent of the railroad. And he went down there, and I
walked along with him to see if there were any tracks there. In which there
were tracks and cigarette butts was laying where someone was stranding on the
bumper looking over the fence or something. LANE. Where you questioned by
agents of any government agency on November 22, Mr. Dodd. DODD. Yes, we were.
We were taken over to the court house and questioned by I suppose Secret
Service men of some kind. Asked me quite a few questions about the same as I’ve
told you here today. This clip is from Mark Lane's Rush to Judgment (1967)
