In his book Case Closed, Posner contends that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of John F. Kennedy and Oswald's murderer, Jack Ruby, acted independently as well. Case Closed was a New York Times bestseller and a finalist for the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for History.
My stepmother went to school with Oswald when he lived in Fort Worth as a little kid. She said he was an odd kid and often bullied. My step grandmother said she was outside working on the lawn one day when she saw Oswald walking down the road. He had a black eye. Oswald’s mother drove up and asked him what happened. He told her he was in a fight. She asked “did you win?” Oswald said “no mama.” She then gave a look of disapproval and then drove off. She could care less her son was beaten up. My step grandmother saw all of this and felt sorry for him. She told me he didn’t have a chance. His mother was a monster.
Rrrrrright...
She was.
Kid moved 12 times before was 15 (?) - all his mother cared about was money.
I think it was Bob Schieffer who had to give her a ride to Dallas from Fort Worth on the weekend of the assassination, and he said she is a complete wacko... no it was McNeil from the McNeil Lehrer Report
Whatever people may say about him, there is no doubt he was dealt a bad hand in life himself.
@@Ligerpride definitely. His childhood experiences definitely left him at a severe disadvantage in life, but of course that doesn't excuse what he did. Many people are dealt bad hands in life, but are able to pull through in the end. Everyone has hardships, it's how you react to them is what really shapes you.
Imagine that you are looking for someone to set up as a patsy, would you pick someone who is 'normal' or someone with the character of Oswald described here?
Idk because most of us would never set somebody up. Conspiracy believers always know how to fake stuff up because that’s what they have to do all day every day to still imagine anyone else was involved.
Someone who they might make think that he was the main event.
The government wouldn’t risk a 23 year old lunatic. He had such a troubled past. You have to have some level of credentials to be recruited for any level of secrecy with psychological testing.
@@mauiswift6391 which makes him the perfect candidate.
@@mauiswift6391 lol Secrec? They killed him 2 days later. You just proved yourself wrong
When people start name calling in comments they have no evidence or knowledge on wtf there talking about
Hey moron learn how to spell
Check mate I think!
I must admit I am on the fence as far as to the depth of Oswald's involvement overall but if he acted alone, from TBSD, how did a bullet manage to go through the front windshield from the 'outside'?
The same way the "magic bullet" did. The bullet missed the target, then did a U-Turn in mid air, and while maintaining velocity, made impact on the windshield. This is known as Warren Report Physics.
It didn't. That claim is CT fiction.
Presumably, you hold in your hands a smart phone which is quite capable of performing Google search functions. If you spend a few minutes using it, you can easily answer and debunk your own claim
It didnt.
@@rds333 Your premise is faulty. Kennedy and Conally were NOT seated front to back. Kennedy was in the rear to the right of Connally who was in a jump seat down and to the left of Kennedy. Look at all the photos of them in the car. Connally was 6 ft 4 and Kennedy was 6 ft 1 and is seated HIGHER in the rear than Connally was in the front. NOW tell me about the trajectory...You need to see or read something besides an Oliver Stone movie... Stone is a known liar.. So is Lane
Posner is right. One of the main things all of the "conspiracy buffs" leave out is Oswald. Oswald always gets lost in their stories. I use to be one that believed in conspiracy. I have read "Rush to Judgement" by lane, "6 Seconds in Dallas" by Josiah Thompson, "High Treason" by Groden and Livingston. What I begin to notice was they used a lot of statements like"This could Mean", "It is possible", "Maybe this means", and never really present any hard evidence. Lifton's "Best Evidence" is so bad I am embarrassed to admit I bought it. I have also read "Case Closed", "Conspiracy of One", and "Reclaiming History', as well as researching the Warren Commission, Church Committee, HSCA, and other research material including ARRB documents. What the conspiracy buffs always do also is to quote someone but they leave out all of the testimony or quote and twist it to fit their theory. Example Lane uses statements by Jesse Price who was across the Plaza on the south side. he told Lane that he saw a man running after the shooting over by the grassy knoll. What Lane does not tell his readers is that Price also said that he heard a final shot "5 MINUTES AFTER"! Funny. Lane knew if he put that in his book that it would discredit Price. No, it is the conspiracy buffs who never tell the truth.
+bummy, I've been down the same road and have come to same conclusion. The conspiratorist if that's a word do exactly as you state in order to sell books. They are corrupting history & profiteering on the murder of Kennedy & the ignorance of the reader.
+Bummy Ike Hi Bummy..Nice to see you posting again!
Bilge Pump Exactly. The conspiracy buffs bank on the gullibility of the average American to not do their own research. It is all about making money from the president's death.
Checkm8king2 Hey buddy. The fight goes on.
Word! I too used to be a conspirator, till I heard from Robert Oswald, and saw computer simulations and forensic evidence that support shots from that 6th floor. I've come full circle: from Oswald to the CIA to the Soviets/Cubans, the mob, Johnson and now back to Oswald. Computer simulations aren't conclusive evidence of course (GIGO), but since the conspirators don't present their own which counters that which points to Oswald on the 6th floor, then their main evidence isn't much more than "take my word for it".
I was a fully immersed conspiracist prior to 1991. Oliver Stone’s movie moved me emotionally but I thought Stone took the wrong path by emphasizing the Jim Garrison angle. What I did not know then was how this would become the start of my skepticism and inexorably lead me to reevaluate and significantly moderate of my beliefs regarding JFK assassination machinations.
I beg to differ. Stone put both on the same level: Garrison's work to come to the conclusion that there were more shooters and Oswald was framed, and to show how things get done in Washington. If the audience missed the second part I just mentioned, then they weren't paying attention and focused only on Garrison. The movie is not about Garrison's angle, it's based on a book he wrote.
Garrison never met a conspiracy he didn't like. I think his final total of shooters was well up in the teens: on the grassy knoll, on the triple overpass, in storm drains, in other buildings, and on and on. It's a wonder everybody in Dealy Plaza didn't get hit in the crossfire.
@@williamwingo4740 exactly. And with all his shooters and teams, only one shot was successful. 👌
@@franclin0 his definitive opinion was three.Others suggested the overpass,drain etc etc.
@@cameronsmith8730 3 shooters?
Did his homework, lets the facts and evidence lead the way. Truth has no bias, no motive no purpose other than the truth..
Ric Rovey The truth shall set you free!
0% chance oswald did it alone. Actually there is zero proof that he was in on it
@@ryanwilliams6206 because he didn't.
"Case Closed", aka "Triggered by Stone's movie".
Posner is so wrong, it's nonsense. Complete nonsense.
False. He went into researching and writing this book with no dog in the fight and would have loved to come up with ACTUAL, REAL evidence and be the one actually prove a that it was a conspiracy. That would have changed Posner's life but when really looking at Oswald unlike so many conspiracy authors, it is clear. So many can't accept that all it takes is one whack job to do something so consequential.
entry wounds don't blow big holes in the back of you head, rather in the front. And if oswald used a carcano bullet there should be an exit wound in the face at 2200 ft/second. A bullet in the back at T3 can't exit the front of the neck , but a front neck wound could make it to T3 vertebra
Kennedy’s head was tilted left and downward. The brain matter flew forward. Like you said about exit wounds, if JFK was shot from the front/right, shouldn’t there be an exit wound on the left side of JFK’s head?
Look at autopsy photos. Bullet hole entry was small. The neck exist wound was from the first shot in the back.
Oswald was highly intelligent,,,he also had a very high security clearance.,,,he also knew way to much
Oswald had an IQ of 118, yet he never had a drivers license or knew how to drive a vehicle. Never had a father, hated his mother. Loved to read books endlessly, spent most of his formative years in foster care, was picked on, bullied and and hated school. The young man was a basket case from the get go, and Lee was an angry, self absorbed individual with a distorted vision of the world around himself.
@@user6008 says, "Oswald had an IQ of 118", Where did you get this information? Give us a link to verify this assertion.
An IQ of 118 is not very high. An average IQ score is between 85 and 115. 68% of IQ scores fall within one standard deviation of the mean.
An IQ score over 140 indicates that you're a genius or nearly a genius, while 120 - 140 is classed as "very superior intelligence". 110 - 119 is "superior intelligence", while 90 - 109 is "normal or average intelligence".
I have an IQ of 135. What is your IQ Mr. Hancock? 185? Lol
@@williamwhitten7820 National archives, JFK assassination records. 118 is considered above average with 98 being average. You need to do some heavy reading before spouting off nonsense. Lee Oswald was intelligent, he was also an introvert with violent tendencies, had an incredibly F-D up childhood, hated his mother, resented authority. Basically a square peg in a round hole. The kid actually scored an IQ 102 in fourth grade, loved to read voraciously which explains why his IQ was above average. Lee actually skipped school to hang out in the public library, where he learned about Marxism. You should watch the radio interview he gave in New Orleans, where lee's intelligence is displayed.
@@user6008 Again, you haven't given a source for you assertions. I do no doubt Oswald had a high IQ. Oswald was an ONI agent on a mission to infiltrate the conspiracy forming in New Orleans in early 1963, and shifted to Dallas later. John M. Newman has proven this in his deep study of the Assassination.
All I want from you is links to your information.

My commentary:
“Large gaping hole in back of head. patched by placing piece of rubber…..over it.
Thinks skull full of Plaster of Paris.”
The brain was removed during autopsy, of course plaster of Paris would have been used to keep the skull from fragmenting further during the time between autopsy and being sent to mortician.
We again get into the issue - what does “back of the head” mean? The autopsy photos and x-rays show the wound is to the back of the occipital parietal, all the Parkland doctors used the same phrase.
“Smaller wound in right temple. Crescent shped, flapped down (3″)” This is the entrance wound, that is without dispute by the research community.
“(approx 2) Small sharpnel wounds in face. Packed with wax.” These would be caused by windshield glass, as Sherry Fiester CSI tracks the trajectory from the end of Dealey plaza near the Triple Underpass, which is higher in elevation than the area in front of the pavilion where the bullet hit Kennedy, as seen in the Zapruder film.

For those who believe Oswald was "easily" able to return to the US from the Soviet Union, please read Norman Mailer's book "Oswald's Tale" specifically pages 200-300. Mailer quotes extensively from US cables and memos, some Soviet documents and the KGB files about Oswald's attempts to repatriate.
It took Oswald almost a full year to get approval from the US State Department. There were inquiries as to whether the government could prosecute Oswald, whether they should allow Marina to come in, whether to provide assistance to Oswald and other bureaucratic matters. It was a slow and cumbersome process.
If Oswald was working for the CIA - something I think there is no basis for - then the State Department certainly didn't know about it. Because they gave him hell.
Steven Galbraith
Good book.
Although I don't share his conclusion (that Oswald acted alone) I believe that Mailer's book is the best ever written on the assassination. He also notes that Oswald suddenly cleared that State Department loan with three large payments after paying $10 a month or so. Perhaps Oswald was an informant for the FBI. That doesn't mean that they were involved in the assignation. Mailer also wrote that the FBI would recruit people from the margins of society to infiltrate subversive organisations. They would try to encourage other members of radical left and right wing organisations to engage in illegal activity. Thus making the Bureau's case stronger.
@@Saintinthecity-wh9nl Read Lone Star Speaks a new book that has a lot of new and scary info.
@@vernpascal1531 I will have a look, thank you.
The CIA had 42 files on Oswald,
dating back to 1957.
do we have copies of the returned letter at14.30 surely there are records
So,....what about the huge wound in the back of JFK'S wound that all the doctors said they saw up close.
@TermsofService if you're not familiar with the huge open wound in JFK'S head then read Dr Crenshaw's book trauma room one.
@TermsofService he was a doctor who stated there was a huge exit wound in the back. He's was a qualified surgeon. More that 43 witnesses at Parkland and Bethesda have also said there was an exit wound. Most of those were medical personal. You can't discount all of that because you believe Posner and Bugliosi who were were not there. 43 witnesses are to be believed. If you try to discredit that many, you cannot be helped. Witnesses have come forward saying they were ordere to alter to xrays and autospy reports. There is so much more. Have you even read the books on these topics? They are not theories as you claim. They are facts. Unfortunately you're willingly ignorant if truth. You're sleeping at the wheel and don't care. You're in love with your opinions which are not based on facts. Grow up loser
@TermsofService Dr Robert McClelland a trauma surgeon present with JFK in hospital has also said that the massive exit wound in the back of JFKs head was an exit wound due to it's avulsion outward and he makes mention of the entry wound being above Jfk's right eye at the hairline.
He's qualified to make those statements based on his credibility, his position as trauma surgeon and his eyewitness experience.
Same testimony as Dr Crenshaw and other doctors present. They've been interviewed, you can view their statements here on UA-cam.
You can't debunk that
@TermsofService two caskets were carried into Bethesda naval hospital. The bronze casket, the one that we were told had JFk, was empty. JFK was actually brought into the hospital in a military shipping casket. The men who removed him from the shipping casket have come forward to make it known that's what happened. JFK arrived earlier than that bronze casket. Surgery was performed prior to the autopsy, as stated in Dr Humes report. The body was altered to conceal the frontal shot.
@@g.private9101 It was mentioned in a version that the, murdered cop was the dead body double, because he looked like Kennedy, + Oswalds double was the one, who shot the cop not the real Lee Harvey Oswald.
Geraldine Reid
The Warren Commission spoke to a Depository employee witness who they simply refer to as "Mrs. Robert Reid," failing to refer to her real first name, which was Delores. She was standing in front of the Book Depository as the motorcade drove by.
However, there was a second Mrs. Reid who worked on the second floor of the Book Depository. Her name was Geraldine Reid. The Warren Commission avoided mentioning this Mrs. Reid like the plague. She was flown to Washington and interrogated by the Commission. Her testimony was so devastating to their preconceived conclusion of Oswald's guilt that they buried all references to her. She said, "I was threatened to keep my mouth shut, or else."
Anyone reading the testimony of "Mrs. Robert Reid" would naturally assume that there had been only one 'Mrs. Reid'. In fact there were two: Mrs. Robert Reid (Delores) and Mrs. Geraldine Reid. Here, for the first time, is Geraldine Reid's story:
About one minute before the fatal shots were fired at the motorcade, Lee Oswald walked into the office across the second floor hallway from the snack room where he had been eating his lunch. He wanted to buy a bottle of soda and did not have the required change for the machine. He walked up to Geraldine Reid at her desk and handed her a dollar bill and asked her for change.
"Mr. Oswald didn't like pennies. I remember that," she recalled. "As I was counting out the change, I heard what I later learned were gunshots. Mr. Oswald and I looked at each other quizzically for a moment, but neither of us said anything about the sounds. I did not know that they were shots at the time. I gave Mr. Oswald the change and he turned and walked back into the hallway toward the snack room. That's the last time I saw him until he passed by me a few minutes later as he was leaving the building."
Approximately seventy-two seconds after the shots ended and Oswald had returned to the snack room to buy a soda from the machine, Officer Marrion Baker and Oswald's boss, Roy Truly, confronted him in the snack room. Truly told Baker that it was alright and that Oswald, in fact, worked for him. At that time, Truly mentioned to Lee that President Kennedy had been shot. Oswald seemed genuinely surprised. Baker and Truly then left the lunchroom and headed upstairs to investigate further. In the meantime, someone had informed Geraldine Reid about the assassination.
Geraldine Reid's final encounter with Lee Oswald occurred a few minutes later. "The last time I saw Mr. Oswald, he was leaving the building," Reid stated. "As he passed me by, I noticed that he had his jacket slung over his arm. I told him that the President had just been shot and he simply said 'Oh?' or something like that, and kept on walking out of the office to go downstairs and, I assume, out of the building."
Oswald's jacket was found in the building. This is baloney.
A total Bullshit story.
Bullshit story, made up by Robert Groden to sell a book with zero corroboration.
Just ask yourself: Why, when he was arrested, didn’t he say “Mrs. Reid can tell you where I was when the shooting took place!”
Why didn’t Mrs. Reid come to the jail and tell Fritz he had the wrong guy?! Why do your stories always have a doppelgänger?
Moreover, lets say it happened the way she said. Do you actually believe that Oswald, who considered himself a great political thinker, and would tell that to anyone who would listen, would be shuffling around the Coke machine when the leader of the free world was passing mere feet from the front door of his workplace? Even people who had no interest in politics were on the sidewalks or hanging out of windows to see the motorcade. Oswald certainly would have a keen interest in looking at the man who ostensibly ran the free world.
It’s incomprehensible to think he would have just ignored the parade-if only to have something to complain about to others.
No my friend. Lee was watching that motorcade intensely-from his assassin’s perch on the sixth floor…
@@Ckom-Tunes A lot of words that reveal your lack of knowledge of the three witnesses on the 4th floor. Immediately after the shots were fired two women, from the 4th floor ,went down the same stairs that Oswald was supposed to have sprinted down to make his getaway. They did not see or hear anyone else on those stairs, but they did see the police office and building manager go up the stairs. The third woman remained behind on the 4th floor. She had from her desk a clear view of the stairs. She saw no one go down the stairs, but did see the police officer and building manager pass by on there way up the stairs. The ARRB revealed a memo from the Warren Commission confirming they interviewed one the women who went down the stairs and that it was a problem for Warren Commission. Her testimony has never been found in the records. The Warren Commission refused to interview the other two witnesses.
Next thing you know he will say the Easter Bunny was a sharpshooter and the assassin.
Poser makes a good case . A dam good case . But the problem I have with Posner is that he doesn’t explain some of the crucial points on the other side . Are the railroad men wrong that they said they saw a shot from the picket fence and saw smoke . LBJ’s mistress said he told her the night before “ after tomorrow I won’t have the Kennedy ‘s on my back any longer “ . How about the auto glass manager in the plant where the limo was sent . Papers were found by his wife after his death where he states the windshield had a clear whole in it caused by a bullet . Chauncey Holt a person who worked for the CIA and Mafia before he died made videos indicating on the day of the killing he gave a gun to Charles Harrelson in the parking lot behind the picket fence . Plus many more questions. Posner is saying Oswald shot 3 times from the window and killed the president. People will give you that they just say besides Oswald other shooters were there and took shots also which is a conspiracy
How about the fact the the windshield is still in The National Archives today and has no hole in it?
In addition,,,,To rdEE,,,,,to Mj,,,Plot method,To John,,,To Mark, yes E. Howard Hunt was in that role in the project they named the" Big event", as Architect. He was CIA,

Posner’s book, as good as it is, is not the most researched book. Bugliosi’s is. It took him 20 years to research and write it.
So, Posner's book is the coaster _for_ the coffee table, right?
@@gecko-sb1kp Ooohhh, sick burn, bro!
You are correct. Both men have done an excellent job in revealing the truth...Bugliosi was a fanatical researcher, and a great prosecutor...his book is indeed the best one on this sad topic, but Posner got there first, by about 13 years!
Both these guys are a joke
A ballistics question. The magic bullet went through JFK, into Connelly hitting his rib and wrist bone, emerging not pristine but intact. The bullet that hit JFK's head exploded along with JFK's head, the bullet ended up in fragments. If both bullets were full metal jacket bullets why did one explode and the other remain intact. I'm sure there must be a simple explanation that I have never heard but I have always been curious about this. The Geneva Convention mandated bullets with full metal jackets to prevent the type of injury we see to JFK's head. Did Oswald use two types of ammo?
Mike E
read Mortal Error
Ken Baltitas
I did years ago. The author claimed a SS agent in the car following JFK fell backwards and accidentally discharged his rifle, a rifle that had ammo without a metal jacket and the shot hit JFK, hence all of the damage to Kennedy's head. I actually thought Mortal Error made more sense than some of the other books I've read. I guess the government would have a lot of reasons to cover up a mistake like that. A great headline, "Secret Service Agent Accidentally Kills President." The author did not exclude Oswald from his theory, he felt Oswald was there, Oswald fired shots that apparently hit Kennedy in the back but the fatal shot was fired by the SS agent. The premise for his book was that the ammo Oswald used (full metal jacket) would not have caused such catastrophic damage to JFK's head. So if I remember correctly the first one or two shots were heard, the SS agent stood up in the follow car with his rifle, an AR15 if I remember correctly, the car lurched, the agent fell backwards and accidentally fired his rifle hitting JFK in the head. And of course their is evidence that the SS agents had been out until 3AM drinking that morning so none of this presented a very good picture of the Secret Service, the agency who's job it was to protect the president.
*****
I am not a ballistics expert but some people wonder why a full metal jacket bullet would cause JFK's head to explode, the exact thing such a bullet was engineered not to do. Wouldn't it enter one side of the skull and exit the other side leaving two small holes and a path through the brain? The back wound is another problem. Both Dr. Humes and Dr. Boswell, the doctors who performed the autopsy at Bethesda, placed the back entrance wound at the level of the third thoracic vertebrae (51/2" down from the shirt collar would be) and slightly to the right of the spine. If that entrance wound is lined up with the supposed exit wound in the throat it is hard to imagine that bullet being fired from the 6th floor of the TSBD. Some have countered that the shirt and coat were bunched up and due to that the bullet entered higher than it actually did. The holes in the clothing are irrelevant, the bullet hole in JFK's back is the important measurement and it was noted as being at the level of the third thoracic vertebrae in the autopsy diagram. Gerald Ford apparently fudged and misled the WC stating the entrance wound was in the neck rather than the back which conveniently aligned it with the 6th floor of the TSBD.
intra-cranial pressure
The man who Mortal Error was about is Howard Donahue. He was a world class expert in the field of forensic ballistics. The man got it 99% right.
I was only 19 years old when I first saw Oswald being interviewed after President Kennedy's assassination. My thoughts at the time were, this does not look like a man who has just committed the crime of the century. Recently a friend visited the museum in Dallas and I think a former Marine was there who said, he thought it impossible for those shots to have all been fired from that position. Why did so many people run towards the Grassy Knoll immediately after the third fatal shot? Numerous witnesses said the shot came from there. It is also unbelievable that no notes were kept of the Police interview with Oswald. I don't know the answers ,but the appalling catalogue of events following this horrendous crime raise many unanswered questions.
Wouldn't that fact that Oswald killed Officer Tippet point you to his guilt in killing JFK? Firing the shots has been replicated several times and the firearms experts, from the military, who testified to the Warren Commission, said the shots were very possible to make by Oswald. And keep in mind that many people running toward the grassy noll direction were also running toward the direction where Kennedy was shot. Finally, there was never any evidence/bullets found fired from that direction (they would have hit someone or the car or a tree or building past the car). Check out "Reclaiming History" for the most detailed, conspiracy-squashing book on this subject... it is very long and is well indexed so any reader can get quickly to topics of interest.

Why would a bunch of regular people charge up the knoll if they thought someone with a rifle was up there? People in general are not that brave and ready to risk their lives. They were probably going to the cars parked in the lot over the other side of the knoll.
@@MrWolfmantim He never killed Tipet though, thats the thing
@@Firearcher4 Please purchase and read the Report of the Warren Commission's section on Tippit's murder by Oswald. Oswald was picked out of lineups by several eyewitnesses; at least one of the bullets taken from Tippit's body was identifiable and it came from the pistol Oswald purchased and was on his person in the movie theatre. So many people saw Oswald's movements that every step he took from shooting Tippit to sneaking into the theatre was eyewitnessed.
So why did the Dallas doctors report entry points in the front?
The docs at Parkland were NOT trauma doctors. They had no experience with high powered rifle injuries.
@Robert Taylor. That's total nonsense. Parkland is and was a trauma facility. They dealt with gunshots every day. It was the Bethesda doctors who weren't trauma doctors. You got it exactly backwards.
@@paulajaneabel5205 I ann reporting what is being said in the media outside the USA. Personally I think the US ha snot choice but cover up as the Cold War sentiment could well have led to a serious war regardless of who committed the murder
@Wiiliamflethcher. The conspiracy was internal. The cover-up had to be planned internally. The conspirators had to get the body out of the capable autopsy doctor at Parkland to the military controlled autopsy. By law, the autopsy shouldn't been done in Texas. State crime. Not a federal crime in 1963 to kill a president.
There's a very good reason why Gerald's last name starts with those 3 letters
I always believed Oswald was a lone gunman until Postner came on the scene
lol
Yes . What about all those guys hiding in flood drains and on the grassy knoll with their Mannlicher Carcanos disguised as curtain rails .

Okay, Lee.
Posner's scenario is full of holes.
@@paulajaneabel5205 re: "full of holes."
Yet, you can't name one. A weak case , you do present.
Buell frazier said the package Oswald carried that morning wasnt big enough to be a rifle. He said it was about 2 feet long. Frazier is on several utube videos saying this.

and its not 8 out of 10 at 200 yards.the targets vary from 50 yards out. you clearly never served
In the Marine Corps you shoot from 200 300 and 500 yards. 250 is a perfect score which few Marines do...
Perhaps someone can explain the magic bullet. Why are there more bullet fragments seen in Gov. Connally's x-rays then there are missing on the magic bullet. Connally's Doctor did say in the press conference after surgery that there was still a bullet in Connally's leg. How did that get onto the stretcher in the hall. Now that's magic!
That's a myth because some conspiracy kooks say that doesnt make it so
Posner pretends here that the nick in the almost pristine magic bullet happened when it hit Connolly but I heard it was made by some investigators who took a sample for metal analysis.
Why weren't the bullet fragments ever compared,especially the ones from the President ?

The problem for me has always been is how the hell did he get those shots off with a bolt action rifle? 60 minutes did the test with a renowned expert on marksmanship...and even he couldn't perform the task. For me that is indeed the sticking point.
David Hutchinson
Oswald had 8.3 seconds to fire 3 shots. NOT less than 6 seconds as the Warren Commission thought originally.
He had a round in the chamber when the Limo turned onto Elm Street. He only had to cycle the rifle twice. The longest shot was 88 yards. Child's play for anyone that was trained in the US Marines that qualified as a Sharpshooter.
2nd and 3rd shots were right on top of each other. Pretty much every witness says that. That destroys the single gunman theory. Clearly a conspiracy. Dont overthink things. It's obvious if your thinking straight
@@johnadams5489 8 seconds, 8 minutes--that carcano was once called a mauser. the 6.5 casing they found didn't fit a 7.65 caliber weapon. the bullet path don't make sense, the recovered pristine slug don't hold up. the wounds changed entry point once the body was stolen and the military got their hands on it. you're pledging allegiance to the flag and the banana republic for which it stands.
Really? I've seen it replicated on the Discovery Channel show Unsolved History by an 88 year old man.
CBS News replicated the kill and 3 marksman hit at lest once. One man hit all three times in 5.62
So Oswald was a crack shot but hit the window frame instead of Walker. So Oswald was a tyrant towards Marina but moved to New Orleans when she told him to instead of punching her in the face again.
And he hit traffic lights…
Curious that Lees top Marine corps shooting score 212 is mentioned.
Dispite this his shooting ability is still questioned in conspiracy scenarios. I stumbled upon Charles Wittmans Marine shooting record last year who some will remember as the Austin Texas collage campus shooter. No doubt about his ability with a rifle and no conspiracy theories to cloud opinion. He scored 215... Lee was only three points behind this notorious sharp shooter.
There’s a recording of LBJ and J Edger Hoover talking a week after the assassination. Hoover told LBJ the way he thinks it happened. To the letter his “Theory” was the exact conclusion of the Warren Report, before the investigation had started. To me it proves they had the conclusion before the investigation, and the “investigation” was just twisting evidence, to fit the narrative they wanted for the public. I recommend anyone listen too it. It’s on UA-cam. Make your own conclusion
@@justaburgscousin
Trouble is with the FBI (so obviously Hoover) they were aware of Lee. , knew his location and tried to cover up they knew after the assassination. This cover up especially agent Hosty destroying a letter from Lee threatening the FBI has in my opinion spawned the whole conspiracy issue. There was a conspiracy and it was to cover up ineptitude
by the FBI not monitoring Lee more closely. This would have especially been on Hoovers radar , this is why he pushed an agenda imo.
This has never been closed, except by fools.

The old fat man Zapruder himself left much more than the images of his film. He stood bravely and as steady as he could when he filmed a violent event while others ducked and hit the ground. Somehow this amateur photographer kept the limousine in the middle of the frame and he flinched slightly only three times. If there were more shots he would have flinched more times, and if the shots were coming from closer to him he would have probably flinched harder. The actions of Zapruder himself tells a story, a true story.

The way the car was moving slowly, it may have just have been a stationary target
@@timhorpo I am from Texas and have been to the Texas school book depository. The sixth floor “snipers nest” is plexiglassed off. Supposed to be how they found it after the shooting. If you go one floor below you can get right below where Oswald was supposedly firing. If he was really there the shot would have Been when the limo turns from Main Street onto Houston. The limo would have made i wide slow turn and then at a crawl would have been headed right to the shooter before making another wide slow turn onto elm. Kennedy then would have been suck a easy target. You would only need one shot. It would be a easy shot for any hunter or novice. It would not require a marksmen or sharp shooter. If you ever get a chance to delay place you must go. You will see things much much clearer.
One thing you'll notice with lone gunman theorists is that they focus on Oswald, not the assassination as a whole. Almost their entire presentation, as Posner's here, is about Oswald. What does that leave out? It leaves out everything the Warren Report wanted left out >>> any factual evidence that points AWAY from Oswald as lone wolf. The false assumption made is that Oswald killed JFK, Oswald acted alone, period. Lone gunman theorists make no effort to find the truth about the assassination. Their only effort is to try to prosecute Oswald.

Posner's presentation is invaluable in that it shows his bias, over and over again. Whenever he has an opportunity to attack Oswald's character he takes it; he doesn't even pretend to present a balanced view of the man. Nor of the evidence. When discussing the single-bullet theory, for example, he claims the shot has been repeated "regularly", which is pure malarkey. As but another example, in support that the magic bullet really did pass through two men he claims that the nose was nicked on the front. The nick, as he should have known, being an expert and all, was created by the FBI for a test. The irony, of course, is that Posner attacks Oswald for, first showing anger, and later for being cool under pressure, even smug. Posner could have been looking in a mirror.

I think the fact that every person in the emergency room in Dallas said and today, save one, still says there was a major exit wound in the lower right side of the back of Kennedy's head is all that is necessary to set aside the idea that Oswald acted alone. For someone to later come along and say they were all mistaken is the real absurdity.
Kennedy was lying on his back and no one turned him over, so how could anyone see the back of his head? With all the hair JFK, had the wound was a bloody matted mess.

@@banjohombrepure science there , I see 👌
@@michalbarcik
The doctors’ most startling observation was that the back of Kennedy’s skull was missing, indicating an exit wound and proving beyond doubt that there was a gunman shooting from the front. Yet the autopsy photos show the back of Kennedy’s head fairly intact. The doctors claim that the body must have been tampered with - perhaps part of the head was sewn back on to make it consistent with the lone gunman thesis.
He actually did a great job with the slides. My only suggestion would be to spread all those quotes out over more slides so the font could be larger and more readable.
Michael T. Griffith has written an excellent reply to Posner's book entitled "Hasty Judgment: Why The JFK Case Is Not Closed." It answers the questions Posner didn't want to be confronted with at his presentation in Allen.
Does it say anything about Ruth Paine?

So Mr. Griffith wrote yet another book criticizing the clear conclusion. I bet he had no solid evidence and that he named no organization specifically as THE conspirators... So easy to make a living writing vague books, isn't it?
Is his conjecture? What is his motive for writing the book?
Oswald's tragedies became ours. The USA never recovered from this horrible event. It's all been downhill since. I mean, empires fall anyway, but this is comparable to Commodus succeeding his father Marcus back in the Roman Empire. The general slide to obsolescence is inevitable. We're almost there now. Almost there.
'was it a CIA operative who got Oswald the job overlooking the president's route, no it was Ruth Paine.' Did this guy do any research into Ruth Paine and her connections with the CIA?
there's a great documentary, 'The Assassination And Mrs Paine'(2022)..
It wasn’t Ruth Paine either. It was a friend’s brother. He watched Oswald carry in the rifle he used to murder the President a few hours later.
Was Posner aware that Michael Payne phoned Ruth Payne on the day of the assassination (the phone was bugged) and told her they will blame the assassination on Oswald but we know different - this was before the name Oswald was publicised on TV.
Posner is beyond a donkey's ass. A complete, mendacious, arrogant

Please !!
Great historical investigations! Well done.
So if the headshot came from Oswald, firing full metal jackets, where did the bullet end up, did it also hit Connolly like the pristine bullet, or did it disintegrate? Or did it come from a different gun and wasn't a full metal jacket?
Fragments of the head shot bullet were removed during the autopsy and chemically identified as matching to the not-pristine bullet found on the gurney. Also, the "magic bullet" conspiracy books won't show you the picture of the full bullet taken from back to front, where it is obviously no longer a round bullet. The picture can be seen in "Recclaiming History". Just that alone tells you that such authors are perpetrating a hoax to keep their conspiracy money train from collapsing.
@@MrWolfmantim I've seen pictures of the bullet in conspiracy books, if I remember correctly it is oval in section, particularly at the cartridge end with a slight cast along its length and there is at least one flat spot on the tip. As far as I know it has never been suggested that it hadn't been fired but that it wasn't the one that hit Kennedy and Connolly. One suggestion was that it had been fired into a cadaver from the carcano prior to the assassination.
@@mikeg2939 I stand corrected. Thanks. However, the fact that Connolly's entrance would was oblong means the bullet hit something before entering since it was tumbling. And clearly that bullet was fired from behind. And despite what many of the conspiracy books portray (I've read several), Connolly was sitting 6" to Kennedy's left and some inches lower, on a jump seat. Sorry for being overly verbose but there's so much to this. I'm rereading Bugliosi's "Reclaiming History" which is enormous but well-indexed to find topics or names easily... highly recommmended.
@@MrWolfmantim Copy ordered. To me, as an avid reader, a recommendation often becomes an obligation. My tally of JFK books is probably between 10 and 15, mostly pro conspiracy, a couple total fantasy but all raising many questions, some of which Reclaiming History will hopefully answer. My next book to read on the topic is A Cruel and Shocking Act, which I believe to be a critique of the Warren commission report. Although I lean towards a conspiracy I do accept that Oswald could have acted alone and was either a crack shot or just got lucky, but there was a lot of unusual events before, during and after the actual shooting that causes doubt. There is also the question that if it was just Oswald then why are documents still being withheld by the government, who is been protected if the assassin is long gone.
@@mikeg2939 Mike, I tip my hat to you, sincerely. It is so refreshing to have a civil dialogue out here with an open-minded person. I thought, for many years, that there had to be a conspiracy given all the strange coincidences (e.g. Ruby getting in to shoot Oswald). I think you will LOVE "Reclaiming History." Just the introduction (of 40 pages) is so well written and researched that it made Bugliosi's case well enough.
The most researched book is “Reclaiming History”. Case Closed is a well written book and along with the Warren Commission Report and “Reclaiming History” then the truth is fully explained.

Excuse my question. But your mental evaluation of Lee is very very thin. Can anyone form a treatment plan from the sketchy at best. And as far as him making the shots. He would have been shooting at a target that is moving away from him. But when you have the bullet hole in the windshield figured out call me please
Clearly a conspiracy. Does everybody forget that the 2nd and 3rd shot were on top of each other. That alone destroys the single gunman theory
In the Marines Oswald could consistently hit a 10 inch target from 200 yards 8 times out of 10. On the day of the assassination Oswald hit a 10 inch target from 88 yards one time out of three. I don't see the problem. Oh and there was no bullet hole in the windshield. If you can prove that then call me please.

@@pomme4moi How can you possibly believe something like this.
First of all Kennedy was shot from the front, because the head went back and to the left.
Did they make some sort of test on that?
The magic bullet hit Kennedy in the (1) back at an angle of 17 °, and then goes upward, (2) enters out of his neck, the bullet waits 1.2 seconds in mid air, turns right and then left, goes into Connolly's body at the rear of his (3) right arm pit, turns downward at an angle of 27°, (4) shatters his fifth rib, goes out of his chest, turns right and reenters (5) Connolly's right wrist, shatters the radius bone, exits Connolly's (6) wrist, makes a U turn, buries itself into (7) Connolly's left thigh. The Bullet is later found in Parkland Hospital.
This is why it got the name, "The magic Bullet."
Then came the head shot.
This was all done in 5.6 seconds established by the Zapruder film.
The Oswald rifle was tested and found to be defective.
They took the best of best marksman in the country and only one could come anywhere close to what Oswald did on that day and even then, they never could never replicate what the magic bullet did that day.
90 seconds after Kennedy was shot, Patrolman Marien Baker ran up the stairs and saw Oswalt in the Cafeteria.
Supposedly Oswald shot Kennedy in 5.6 seconds, wiped the rifle clean, hid the rifle, sprints down 5 flights of stairs, passes Victoria Adams and Sandra Styles who never saw him, just in time to get to the cafeteria, just before Patrol Baker gets there. All this within 90 seconds of the shooting. Is he out of breath? According to Baker, absolutely not. Oswald does not go out the back exit of the building, he goes out the front door where the cops have gathered.
@@kevinhealey6540 It didn't zig zag. This is how Connally and Kennedy were ACTUALLY seated in the limo at the time of the second shot based on computer model recreations of the Zapruder film.
frankwarner.typepad.com/free_frank_warner/2011/05/kenned.html
Of course conspiracy theorists always use the diagram in their books of Connally seated DIRECTLY in front of, and at the same height as, Kennedy. In reality Connally was seated on a jump seat six inches inboard and lower than Kennedy.
@Jeff Carlin How can a bullet go through 7 targets (and that's all in flesh) and come out in pristine condition?
Theoretically impossible.
The bullet came from the front. His back went back and to the left.
Why would a night club owner who worked for the mob shoot Oswalt? (Press Read more)
In the three years after the murders of John F. Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald eighteen material witnesses died, 6 by gunfire, 3 by motor accidents, 2 by suicide, 1 by a cut throat, 1 by a karate chop to the neck, 3 by heart attacks, 2 from natural causes. An actuary engaged by the London Sunday Times concluded: On November 22, 1963, the odds of these witnesses being dead by Feb. 1967 are one hundred thousand trillion to one.

Why would he deny doing it if he was so proud, Gerald Posner?
To be a smug dick. Criminals do this all the time fool.
When I was younger I believed in the conspiracy theories. But as I learned more about who Oswald was it became clear he acted alone. Posner deserves a lot credit for bringing out the facts of the case.
It became clear to you that he acted alone in killing the President of the United States. Okay. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Same here.
To be fair the most researched book on the JFK assassination is Reclaiming History by Vincent Bugliosi, 21 years. 1986-2007
Yes it is. I love Bugliosi's books and have the utmost respect for him. While I would classify Bugliosi's book as the best on the assassination, I favor Posner over Bugliosi in talks and presentations about it like this.

when the narrator says,
Let me tell you...
Fred Hoffman, a deaf mute, saw two men at the picket fence. A shooter and another supporting him. Also the Zapruder film shows Kennedy being thrown back with violence against the seat. James Files said he used a Mercury exploding bullet and fired from the picket fence. The Zapruder movie shows the impact of a fragmenting Mercury bullet. If Oswald was a shorter he was not alone.
A CBS documentary showed a test shot from a high-powered rifle hitting a skull (fake or animal, not sure which) from the REAR, and the skull is thrown BACKWARDS violently. It's counterintuitive, but that's what they showed in a video. I wish they'd show that test more frequently; that might quell people's justifiable suspicions.
The entry points for both shots that hit were from the back, there is absolutely no proof of a second shooter. There are eyewitnesses who saw Oswald in the window with gun in his little mitts. As for dear old Fred, it was proven many years ago that he was telling diabolical porkies about where he was stood during the assassination. The magic bullet theory has been completely disproved as Connolly was seated inwards and lower than JFK, so the trajectory is perfect for the sixth floor window. The trouble is that all these theories contradict one another, you all need to get to get together and plump for one and then set about finding even a tiny piece of evidence. Good luck with that 🤞🏼
@@explorepikespeak It wouldn’t. The evidence is overwhelming that both shots came from behind and Oswald was the one squeezing off shots. If the penny hasn’t yet dropped for those who have researched the subject, it never will. 🤷♂️

It is extremely difficult to believe that Dr. Robert Perry would recommend Posner's grimoire of patent psychobabble. Dr. Perry said three time in an interview in front of Parkland Hospital on 11/22/63 that the wound in the throat was an entrance wound.
To further corroborate this, the wound in Kennedy's back was at the level of the third thoracic vertebrae, some 6 inches lower than the throat wound. that trajectory eliminates the 6th floor window of the Book Depository Building. In fact it eliminates any position above ground level.
Remember this bullet is supposed to be the 'Magic' bullet that went through both JFK and Governor Connally. the physical facts cannot be denied.
“the wound in Kennedy's back was at the level of the third thoracic vertebrae, some 6 inches lower than the throat wound.”
The chief medical examiner for Dallas County, Dr. Charles Petty, was asked about this problem. He explained that from an analysis of the Zapruder film, the HSCA determined that at the time the president was struck in the back, his upper body (though not his head) was inclined forward at “an approximate angle of 11 to 18 degrees” relative to the horizontal plane, and because of this, Petty said, even though the bullet was at all times traveling downward (from the horizontal, i.e., relative to Elm Street) through the president’s body, from an anatomic standpoint (i.e., if the president had been seated ramrod straight-referred to medically as the “anatomic” or autopsy position) it was proceeding on a slightly upward path through his body. Therefore, diagrammatically, the bullet that struck the president appears to be going upward-in that it is exiting at a point on the president’s body higher than where it entered-“but it is only doing so anatomically,” he said, adding that “the president was not in an anatomic or autopsy position at the time he was shot. If he had been, the bullet, even anatomically speaking, would have exited at a lower point on his body than it entered, because it would have entered higher up.” As the HSCA photographic panel of experts concluded, “The bullet was moving…downward by 4.0° relative to Kennedy if he was sitting erect (not inclined forward or aft).”
@@robertromero8692 I will not rely on the psychobabble of Dr. Charles Petty. I have done my own analysis of the Zapruder film, Kennedy was NOT leaning forward at any such drastic angle when he was struck in the back. At z225 when we see Kennedy as he comes in view after being behind the FWY sign. he is sitting straight up with his hands at his chest.
At z274, JFK's head is bowed forward slightly as though he would be looking at the level of his knees, but his torso posture is straight up. But firing from the presumed official story, the bullet in the back would have exited from below the sternum.
See: *Costella Combined Edit Frames* - you need to be able to study the Zapruder frame by frame to do a proper analysis of the film.
@@williamwhitten7820 “I will not rely on the psychobabble of Dr. Charles Petty.”
It’s not “psychobabble”. It’s scientific medical analysis.
“Kennedy was NOT leaning forward at any such drastic angle when he was struck in the back. At z225 when we see Kennedy as he comes in view after being behind the FWY sign. he is sitting straight up with his hands at his chest.”
He had already been hit at Z225, so the angle then is not the salient one.
“you need to be able to study the Zapruder frame by frame to do a proper analysis of the film.”
This video does exactly that. It shows JFK’s head moving FORWARD at the moment of impact from the head shot.

Someone explain to me how Kennedy's head goes backwards on the second shot. Your going to say Oswald did that also, as that only happens on a shot from the front, which means another shooter.
Not to mention the police officer to the back right of the president's car got hit with blood spray and brain matter.
Medical experts have said that when a nerve is stuck like that, in this case Kennedy's head, there's no telling which way a head will go, so "back and to the left" means nothing.
A nerve being struck cannot overcome the force generated by a bullet from a high powered rifle. If someone is standing in front of you and you shoot them in the forehead with a sniper rifle, everything is coming out the back and their head is jerking back from the force. It's physics, plain and simple.
I think he was hit with two bullets almost simultaneously, one from the rear and one from the front.
What grade did you get in high school physics? Care to name the school?
By the reflexive vitriol that Posner and Bugliosi engender, they are on to something indeed. It is called reason, evidence, and intellect rather than emotion and self-interest.
It is called Character Assassination willful,ignorance, and denial, that's what Posner ,and Bugliosi,specialize in!
If it was Oswald's goal to "put himself in the history books" for killing JFK, why would he deny doing it?
No one knows Oswald's motivation. You describe just one of many speculations.
Because criminal denies their own actions.
Oswald was a coward. That's why he denied his own actions. Now does this exonerate him because he said he wasnt involved? Criminals plead not guilty all the time.
No one can prove oswald did and did it alone. No witnesses saw him. No admission. Hasn't been found guilty in the court of law. No fingerprints on the rifle til after his death. 2nd and 3rd shots were on top of each other. Rifle couldnt do that obviously. That alone destroys the single gunman theory
@@banjohombre thats a weak reply
best way is to read both sides of the storys read the warren commison and all the other books and determine for yourself what happened on 11-22-63 a lot of people only stay to one side of the story before seeing all the evidence. however I think its crazy that they go to the extreme to try to discredit the other story that they use you were in a mental hospital or something is wrong with you. you really didn't see what you saw or you didn't hear what you thought or u were confused as of witch direction
Without ALL of the evidence, and evidence properly secured and handled, you could read anything and everything you wish and be completely wrong. Without key evidence, mostly JFK's brain, the arguments will continue and forever. Without that brain and a proper dissection at autopsy from MD's skilled in forensic pathology and gunshot wounds, the answer will be hidden forever.
Postner is clearly a National Security State / Intelligence State agent.
Then I must be too. Where's my paycheck?
Maybe "Postner" is...but who is that guy?
So Walker was the only target that Oswald ever missed?

No ballistics were ever done on his gun
All bullets and fragments from both killings were firmly matched to Oswald's guns.
I am confused...the pistol that Oswald had on him in the Russian embassy, was confiscated by the embassy? If so, what pistol did Oswald retrieve after fleeing the scene of the crime? He shot the cop with another pistol? Or did Posner get it wrong at the Russian embassy?

@@Dyrwlf Indeed I agree even if Oswald had concocted this plan on his own he was not some nobody loser with limited military experience. Even Johnson asks Hoover about Oswald's last Mexico embassy trip and Hoover makes a comment "that's the confusing thing." What was? Is Posner gonna so easily dismiss Ruby offing Oswald on live TV as yet another loser that need to prove himself? What about the actual real Miami police recording of James Milteer who "boastful claims" in Miami 2 weeks before Nov.22/63 make a stunning blueprint for what happened in Dallas ? What does Posner make of Kennedy family members making comments that there likely was a conspiracy? Why is Richards Helms of the CIA response to Mr. Belin in '75 on whether Oswald had been an agent of some kind (CIA/FBI and or ONI) still to this day redacted? If the Warren Commission got it right there should have been no need for the HSCA years later and information being censored and or locked up for several decades.
Interesting, when Posner says at the beginning something like "Hey JFK, tell them to turn the car around, don't keep going", you can also tell Abe Lincoln, "Don't keep watching the play. Go home"
Well, yes. Abe, grab Mary Todd and leave.
Posner presents a persuasive fiction. Unfortunately however that’s all it is, as the evidence against Oswald acting alone is not satisfactorily addressed.
- I think Posner glossed over the pristine bullet. Even the Warren Commission photographs comparing bullets that had been shot through cadavers and goats looked nothing like this bullet which traversed 15 layers of clothing, seven layers of skin, and approximately 15 inches of muscle tissue, struck a necktie knot, removed 4 inches of rib, and shattered a radius bone. The bullet then magically removed itself from the Governor’s thigh onto a gurney in the corridor at Parkland Memorial. I’m sorry for having a reasonable doubt.
- I don’t understand how Jackie Kennedy climbs on the back the limousine to retrieve part of the President’s detached skull. You would think she would have climbed on the bonnet? This was consistent with Bobby Hargis who was a motorcycle cop riding on the left hand side and behind the limousine being struck by brain matter and blood. Given the bullet had come from the back, the laws of physics appear to have temporarily reversed - which is of course absurd.
- The clincher for me is the eyewitness accounts of the Parkland hospital doctors, all of who’s testimony was ignored by the Warren Commission. Invariably all the doctors in Trauma Room One (Dr Paul Peters, Dr Richard Dulany, Dr Robert McClelland, Dr Pepper Jenkin, Dr Charles Crenshaw) noticed a 5 inch occipital exit wound in the President’s head. Dr Robert McClelland was very detailed in his observation stating that he could see the cerebellum (which is located in the back of the head). So many doctors couldn’t have got it wrong. So to suggest that these doctors were all wrong is tantamount to suggesting another wild conspiracy theory, this time amongst the Parkland medical staff.
I agree that there are many silly conspiracy theories which have done a lot of damage to the view that Oswald ‘probably’ didn’t act alone. I don’t know why it’s so important to prove how the assassination was perpetrated. It is much simpler to show that there was more than one shooter, everything else is just conjectural.
To point to Oswald’s bad character and guilt is a moot point as I don’t think any reasonable person thinks that Oswald was not involved in the assassination. I think he definitely was involved but let’s not use this as a straw man to detract from the real question of whether he acted alone.
The circumstantial evidence and particularly the handling of the affair after the assassination raise many red flags. Even the murder of Oswald by the mobster Rubenstein raises serious suspicions.
However as I stated earlier, for me the most convincing evidence is from the Parkland medical team. This evidence, which indicates at least a second shooter, cannot be ignored and in my view has received too little attention for my satisfaction.
2nd and 3rd shots were on top of each other. That alone destroys everything Posner says.
@@ryanwilliams6206 where’s the proof of that?

@@Dyrwlf honestly governments can barely organise a christmas office raffle let alone keep this JFK conspiracy secret for 50 years. You give government departments too much credit.

How many of the psychopaths pictured said they were just a patsy, or did they just say they didn't do it because that's what their lawyers told them to say?
There is NO evidence he was a psychopath.
how do you explain his last phone call to a former army intelligence officer in Durham N.C., hoover comments there were two Oswald's running around, and this was before the assassination. why would a rich aristocrat count like demorhenshield be hanging out with oswald with ties to George w. and no one can put him in that window or the undertaker who said some men came and took fingerprints while he laid dead. all the contradictions at the tippet shooting and the arrest at the theater.

Maybe if you bothered to read Posner, Bugliosi, or the Warren Report you'd find your shadows might disappear.
Have a look at some conspiracies that are real and proven and I think you'll realize how incompetent they have been. Disaffected shooters are a daily aspect of everyday life in the USA.

Recent research by John M. Newman proves that Lee Harvey Oswald was an agent of ONI Office of Naval Intelligence. This puts Posner's entire psychological profile into question, as well as the reasons for Oswald's trip to Russia. Oswald was trained in the Russian language while in the military. He spoke the language so well that Marina thought he was a native Russian when they first met. When Oswald applied for a visa to travel to Russia one was supplied within a few short days, which is exceptionally fast. Then when Oswald returned from Russia he was given financial assistance from the US government to pay for his family's flight back to the US. When they landed in the US there was no debriefing of the so called traitor who offered to give US intelligence secrets to the USSR.
It's not the time required to fire three rounds that proves anything.
It's the fastest possible time between two shots that matters. Compare that to the shortest time between two shots in the Zapruder film.
The three shot test was just another aspect of the cover up.
The short time between the second and third rounds proves a second gun.
The delay between the first and second round is irrelevant.
Adding it into the test was an obvious con job from the beginning.

I have seen interviews with all 5 doctors that worked on JFK when they transported him to Parkland hospital. They all said he had a gaping hole in the back of his head. Lee's bullets if he even shot at JFK, would not have made a gaping whole in the back of his head. He was shot from the front with bullet that exploded on impact. The doctor that performed the tracheotomy on him said there was a small entrance wound in the front of his throat that he expanded for the trache. Study the new evidence that has come out in the last couple of decades.
+Parry Owen
Give a rest. You can look at the Zapruder film and clearly see the shot did not come out the back of JFK's head. Oh wait they tampered with the film. Yadda yadda yadda.
You just said back of head was gone and then you say forehead is gone. Witnesses are not always credible.
You said the forehead was missing and witnesses say the back of head was gone so yes that is what you said.
Which is it? You can't have an entry wound the same size as the exit wound. The autopsy pics show JFK with both the back of his head face intact except for the damage done by the exit wound. So yes the witnesses were either mistaken or they lied.
+Michael Jackson Does it really matter? You believe your way and I will believe mine. Just drop it! I am tired of hearing it from you!
So you didnt say "Explain why in frames 333-5, JFK's forehead and face are gone and you can see Jackie in place of where his face should be." Sounds like you support the comment his face was gone otherwise why use that description? Again which one do you agree with? The witnesses or the film? Thats the whole point.
It cant be both.
As for one witness Marilyn Sitzman.
Witnesses said that black kid in Ferguson was shot in the back and yet medical evidence showed he wasnt. Witnesses are often unreliable evidence.
Anyway its been 50 years now. Dont you think in a conspiracy this large that someone would have talked by now? But there no credible evidence. Every conspiracy theory gets disproved and another one pops up. Give it a rest. Sometimes things are not that complicated.
There was no benefit for JFK'sdeath. Its the last thing Cuba or Russia would want. Mafia would not want to take the chance. We were already headed for Vietnam. JFK may not have escalated it like Johnson but it would have continued.
The only person that benefited from JFK's death was Oswald who got his 15 secs of fame. But believe what you want.
He was lone gunman ok… but I think part of a conspiracy. He was working with ppl of the “fair for play for Cuba” committee things of that nature, he could have been working for cia and not even know it… look at how fbi is working now, years later, nothing new. but we know now, too, the mayor of Dallas was a CIA operative, totally in charge of Kennedy’s itinerary and travel routes, and his brother fired, along with Allen Dulles, by Kennedy. Oswald could have been singled out, talked into killing walker and Kennedy, and not have a clue who was behind it, by the time he did figure it out he claimed he was a “patsy” which he was. After he did the dirty deed, then the mob, in control of ruby, stepped in and cleaned it up. Easy pezy. I believe the evidence supports this thesis.
Thanks
Yep, that hack of a shot just nailed it. Bang, bang, bang, one bullet travelling through JFK, barely getting damaged, slicing into Connally afterwards. Then with expert precision, (and split-second timing) BOOM! Another shot (by Oswald, of course) hits JFK in the back of the head, and, what? His brains spill out backwards? Now THAT is shooting skill!
That hack of a shot scored 212 on the USMC rifle range earning the title sharpshooter. Having qualified on a similar range as a Marine, I can attest that Oswald was a decent shot. Marines qualify from the 200, 300, and 500 yard lines without telescopic sites. All of Oswald's shots were within 100 yards and he had a 4X power telescopic site.
Watch the Zapruder film and check out the high contrast analysis the Itek Corp. did on frame 313. The explosion of the president's head is clearly forward and to the right indicating an exit wound from a shot from the rear. Furthermore, Zapruder himself testified that the right side of Kennedy's head exploded. If the shot came from the front (triple underpass) or side (grassy knoll) the wound would have exploded left and rear. That didn't happen.
Verifying the possibility of Oswald firing all three shots, multiple shooters got off three shots in under six seconds. It's worth noting that they only had a few minutes to familiarize themselves with C2766 (Oswald's rifle). According to his own wife, Oswald practiced dry-firing his rifle numerous times on their back porch. Therefore, it is reasonable that Oswald struck his target 2 of 3 times in 5-8 seconds.
redbastine I think it flies in the face of the destroyed evidence that clearly shows a rear of the skull exit wound. But everybody has their own opinion. (I never get testy with someone when they speak in a courteous manner, but I strongly disagree with the lone shooter theory).
TheMrktd1 Hooey. Oswald was as guilty of killing JFK as Osama bin Laden was of pulling off 9/11. The theory has been destroyed by mountains of evidence (even though mountains of evidence implicating others was destroyed) and the fact that anyone thinks otherwise is mind-boggling. He eviscerated nothing.
Sweet.
canadianroot Well lookie here---a 911 toofer douchebag. Who could have seen THAT coming? LOL!!!
canadianroot While you are at it, girly boy, do tell us how the ITEC Corp. got the enhanced film interpretation wrong. Use your words.

Maybe ?? Zero evidence or facts,you give a maybe ?? Lol !!
He worried about the safety of his wife... you mean the one he repeatedly beat black and blue? What a paradox.
Is that why, addressing the entire world on live TV, he made no attempt to beg protection for his family, basically making them untouchable, or make the slightest attempt to blurt out anything about a conspiracy endangering him, basically making *him* untouchable?
I'm not an expert but it is a fact that Elvis loved fried bologna sandwiches but only liked fried banana and peanut butter sandwiches after they found that pristine bullet!?! That settled it for me.

The best book on it has to be Vincent Bugliosi’s “Three Days in November.” You can buy the really expensive version, which is a hefty tome, and half of it is just citations for the claims. The paperback is a lot cheaper, and it omits a lot of the citations. Bugliosi, who would have been the prosecuting attorney if Oswald had lived to go to trial, must have put in an incredible amount of effort and legwork into this book. The staggering amount of tiny details cited, all pointing to Oswald’s guilt, make this the best book on the subject, and I’ve read most of the books generally availability on it, including pro-conspiracy and anti-conspiracy, and including Gerald Posner’s scholarly work.

That is very close to convincing. But why does his head recoil to the back and to the left, which would be consistent with a shot from the grassy knoll…? That still concerns me.
its not consistent with a shot from the grassy knoll. the president's head recoiling is an involuntary neurological reaction to the brain being damaged.
