Poprocks & Coke (a JFK / Lee Harvey Oswald Fanfic)

4: I Fought the Law

Jack and Lee arrived at the Texas Theatre, Jack spotted that his favourite film called Camelot was playing at the theatre.

"Hey! Look, my favourite movie's on!"
"Really? You like this? That's girly stuff,"

"Oh yeah? What genre of films do you like then?"

"I don't know, I'm not really into watching movies and stuff,"

"Then what do you like then? Except attempting to assassinate politicians,"

"I don't know. Are we going to watch a movie or not?"

"Yeah, but you have to pick out what the heck you want to watch, because I've already picked mine,"

"Fine. What's The Haunting?"

"Not a clue, but it sounds scary though, do you want to watch it?"

"Maybe. Do you want to do a coin toss?"

"Yeah,"

"Right. Heads for Camelot, Tails for The Haunting, you ready?"

"Yeah,". He flips the quarter and it lands on ... Tails.

"Dammit, I wanted Camelot,"

"Too bad, Kennedy,"

"I'll murder you, Lee if I have nightmares about this stupid thing,"

"Oh stop complaining will you?"

Half way through the film it goes off and a Dallas policeman is standing holding a torch looking for someone, he walks up to where Jack and Lee are sitting and the policeman shines his torch onto Lee, he then says to him:
"Lee Oswald, you are under arrest for the murder of Dallas police officer, J.D Tippit,". Jack is of course sitting there with not a Scooby what's going on.

"Lee, you didn't tell me you shot an officer,"

"I'm sorry, Jack, you probably hate me now,"

"Lee, I don't hate you, I-"

"You what, Jack?"

"Never mind. Where are you taking him, officer?"

"To the Dallas Police Headquarters, where do you think, Mr President," says the officer sounding very austere

"If he's going then, I'm going with him,"

"Alright, Mr President, if you insist,".
They arrive at DPD HQ, and Lee is taken in for questioning for the murder of J.D Tippit and the almost assassination of Jack, who also gets questions fired at him faster than a bullet in mid-air.

THE NEXT DAY, MONDAY 25TH NOVEMBER 1963, DPD HQ...

Jack had stayed with Lee last night in his cell, today though there would be further questioning by the annoying press, once the questioning was done by the press, Lee was needing to be asked questions by the Director of the Homicide Department at DPD HQ, Captain Will Fritz. Once the questioning by Fritz was done, a court date was set for Saturday January 4th 1964 for Lee's trial for the death of J.D Tippit and Jack's sort of 'assassination'.

1 YEAR LATER, SATURDAY JANUARY 4TH 1964, THE TRIAL OF LEE HARVEY OSWALD FOR THE DEATH OF DALLAS POLICE OFFICER J.D TIPPIT AND 'ASSASSINATION' OF PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY...

Today would be the day we will see if Lee is either guilty or not guilty of killing J.D Tippit and attempt to kill Jack, at 11:21AM, Lee was transferred to Dallas High Court which is 2 buildings away from the Texas School Book Depository, with him besides all of the police officers and unlimited amount of press, Jack was with him also. They all arrived and entered the court room, the judge sitting at the podium waiting for the defendant's entourage to take a seat, Jack would act as a sort of 'lawyer' for Lee and be defending him for what the Dallas police and a lot of angered Dallas citizens are accusing him of doing. After the trial, Lee is found not guilty for shooting Tippit because it was David Ferrie, who he used to be friends with who shot Tippit, although Lee was found guilty of attempted murder and would spend about a year or two serving time. Jack would of course be visiting every so often whilst needing to deal with crises and civil rights at the White House in Washington D.C.
