This is why I questioned why the records of Parker's trial before the police board mysteriously disappeared (if there were a trial) and the case dismissed. My own scenario, hopefully not too far out, is that Richards wasn't really in the theater and therefore realized he would not be able to testify in detail about Parker's negligence. Richards worried questions could arise during the hearing that he could not answer (because he really wasn't at the theater). The President of the United States is shot and killed, and one officer is obviously negligent in his duty, and the Superintendent of Police is (allegedly) an eyewitness to the officer's neglect of duty. Yet the case is dismissed and all records disappear! I cannot prove my scenario, but I am just saying what came into my mind regarding why Parker was let off the hook. Could Richards have backed out from testifying? Can anyone prove my scenario is definitely false? Is it at least possible?
