I did not read this anywhere yet but I assume that Phillips informed Marlow of Files' motel and room number in Dallas on event week? James Files was apparently very surprised when he showed up at his motel room on the Saturday after and wanted to have James ditch the ''Tippit'' weapon. Any ideas on this? Anyone have a direct quote on this?PS: Thanks Joe for adding me to the Forum.!

I believe that it was Jack Ruby who was with Gary Marlow, when J.D. Tippit was murdered according to a witness. Acquilla Clemons, a witness to the Tippit shooting, said that there were two men involved in the attack on Tippit. She later testified that the gunman was a "short guy and kind of heavy". The other man was tall and thin in khaki trousers and a white shirt. The Dallas Police warned her not to repeat this story to others or "she might get hurt".
