So Oswald didn't drive, right?

Why would they keep an eye on the Paines and their cars for so long?
I cannot imagine it was because anyone suspected that the couple had been framing Oswald as part of a domestic plot to murder the president.

This was posted on the J.D. Tippit - Searching for the Truth by Matt Douthit: Larry Ray Harris: “The name of the officer who recovered the jacket, disclosed here for the first time, was John Mackey. A motorcycle officer who went on to obtain the rank of sergeant in the DPD communications division, Mackey responded in an angry and evasive manner when I approached him for an interview in 1978. Beyond a cursory account, he refused to discuss his finding of the jacket 15 years earlier. "That information," he told me, "might be something they (senior DPD officials) don't want given out."” (“ Defective Detection—The Mysterious Laundry Mark”, Coverups!, Dec. 1985)

Interesting find by Arjan; I've never heard of officer John Mackey but there is no reason the Commission should NOT have heard of him as he appears in "Personnel Assignments November 1963", aka Bachelor Exhibit 5002 shown below. On page 14 he's listed as driving a three-wheeler so it would have been a no-brainer for the WC staff to systematically go through the officers on duty that day using exhibit 5002. Once again it's been confirmed the Commission actively chose NOT to investigate the Tippit case.

The entire quote comes from an article by Larry Harris, called DEFECTIVE DETECTION THE MYSTERIOUS LAUNDRY MARK:
According to the verbatim transcript of Dallas Police radio transmissions (CE 1974) prepared by the FBI at the request of the Warren Commission, the policeman who discovered the jacket in a parking lot behind a nearby service station was assigned call number '279'; his identity, however, was "unknown" according to a notation on the transcript. The name of the officer who recovered the jacket, disclosed here for the first time, was John Mackey. A motorcycle officer who went on to obtain the rank of sergeant in the DPD communications division, Mackey responded in an angry and evasive manner when I approached him for an interview in 1978. Beyond a cursory account, he refused to discuss his finding of the jacket 15 years earlier. "That information," he told me, "might be something they (senior DPD officials) don't want given out."

Nothing yet on John (JR) Mackey. Nothing in any book or article I have about the assassination. Maybe he is still alive. There's a Mike Mackey in Dallas, offering a JFK trolley tour in which he recounts the fairytale of Oswald the murderous maniac:
