Heck we don't even know if he fell off his horse or not, although that's what he TOLD Mudd but not what he WROTE in his "diary". We all know the written word is more sacred than the spoken. Therefore he must have lied to Mudd and wrote the truth for future generations.
Booth also told people his name was Boyd and he and Herold were returning from the war. And I bet he told them a lot of other lies. I guess he didn't want a lot of them to know he assassinated Lincoln or that he broke his leg when he leaped from Lincoln's private box to the stage.

I think Mudd lied. I know he lied about other things. If Booth told Mudd that he broke his leg at Ford's after assassinating Lincoln, I don't think Mudd would have passed that on to investigators when he was pretending he was innocent of aiding and abetting Booth's escape.

Booth certainly embellished his diary with a bit of flair but it was all basically a true confession. No reason in my mind that he would lie about where he broke his leg in that context.
