Damn yer' eyes, yer' buggers have abused my weakness!! (Just kidding)

I was at first dubious of the Moorman interpretation of 'Badgeman' because of the scale-issue. I took it
that the suspect and his spotter were suggested to be immediately behind the concrete pergola wall and
if so, they must have been small individuals!
Then I researched further into sniping tactics and found that a volume of objects in front can be beneficial
because they distract and hide a marksman as long has said-objects don't become obstacles.
Still reticent of the positioning of someone being behind the original 4-and-a-half high picket fence (it was
actually dismantled in 2000), I still had issues with the position until I read this from Union Terminal Railroad
signal supervisor S. M. Holland and fellow employee Richard C. Dodd: Source:
"Holland ran “around the end of this overpass, behind the fence to see if I could see anyone up there behind
the fence.” “Of course, this was this sea of cars in there and... [there] wasn’t an inch in there that wasn’t
automobiles and I couldn’t see up in that corner. I ran on up to the corner of this fence behind the building.
By the time I got there there were 12 or 15 policemen and plainclothesmen, and we looked for empty shells
around there for quite a while..,” (though none was ever found.)
There was one thing Holland found suspicious, however. He testified that behind the fence, at what he
estimated to be the same location as the puff of smoke he had seen, “there was a station wagon backed
up toward the fence, about the third car down, and a spot, I’d say 3 foot by 2 foot, looked to me like
somebody had been standing there for a long period... and also mud upon the bumper of that station
wagon...
[It looked] like someone had been standing there for a long time ... It was muddy, and you could have if
you could have counted them, I imagine it would have been a hundred tracks just in that one location...
[There was] Mud on the bumper in two spots... as if someone had cleaned their foot, or stood up on the
bumper to see over the fence... Because, you couldn’t very well see over it standing down in the mud,
or standing on the ground..."
Union Terminal track supervisor Richard C. Dodd added that “there were tracks and cigarette butts laying
where someone had been standing on the bumper looking over the fence."
To attain the appropriate height to sight over the pergola wall, wouldn't a sniper behave in a manner to
leave such imprints when searching for an ideal killing-shot?
