Those Booth Horses Again -

[JMadonna]

IMO Peanut John's testimony is devastating to the broken leg on stage claim. Although I will conceded you can support yourself with a broken fibula, having suffered the injury there is no way you can walk let alone run without limping. John's testimony gives no indication that Booth was suffering any physical distress whatsoever. In this case the absence of evidence is indeed evidence of absence.

Now you are asking us to believe that Booth mounted the horse with a broken leg, kicked at Peanut with his right stole his hat and still managed to control a recalcitrant horse at the same time? But to put the topper on, Peanut who witnessed all this failed to notice that Booth stole his hat?
