  1. Pat, very true. Dr. Shaw worked on Connally the whole time. About that, my favorite observation by Shaw, "...the wound he saw on Connally's back was not that of a tumbling bullet or of a bullet that had struck anything else before striking Connally. He insisted it was a clean, round wound of entry----very small." Note the precision with which the Parkland doctors described the wounds to each other. As Dr. Marion "Pepper" Jenkins said, "...a wound on the left temporal area, right in the hairline and right above the zygomatic process." (Palamara JFK from Parkland to Bethesda, p.12) The zygomatic process is that bone juncture in front of the lower ear that scrunches up when you clench your teeth. So, looking at the ear straight on, the wound would be around 10 o'clock and 2" away from the edge of the ear. I figure Dr. Shaw heard many such descriptions in the doctors' lounge, and put together a pretty good picture of JFK's head wounds, especially the left temple wound.
  2. Micah M., You are a great compiler of left temple wound witnesses. I am now up to 16 I can remember off the top of my head. These Dr R. R. Shaw links you provide I have never seen before. Early 1964 is fresh in his memory. This is only the second witness I know of who put two and two together that the left temple entrance bullet was responsible for the large blowout in the right occiput. (Though Dr. David Stewart and a few others came very close.) The other witness is the mysterious Hugh Huggins/Howell, supposedly from the CIA whom, supposedly, Bobby Kennedy sent to see what was going on. The best compilation of HH's testimony I have seen is in Vincent Palamara's JFK from Parkland to Bethesda: The Ultimate Kennedy Assassination Compilation. On pp.86-87 are three references to Mr. Huggins' witnessings. In a.: "...entry wound to the left temple. To my knowledge, only two other people beside myself have admitted to seeing this wound.[Actually, many witnesses had admitted to seeing this wound at this point. They just hadn't been compiled.] ...exited the right side of the president's head, blowing out a section of skull and obscuring the entry wound of a second bullet that struck him from the right front almost simultaneously." In b., "Mr. Bartlett...recalled conversing...with a man fitting Hugh Howell's description....a short man with a crewcut who identified himself in that capacity [CIA], and I do believe he said his name was Howell." Many researchers find it hard to reconcile a left temple entrance-right occipital exit (i.e., coming from the South Knoll direction)-----with the violent back and LEFT movement seen in Zapruder. But here's an explanation: the left temple bullet went in and out so cleanly that it imparted little force to the large mass of the head. JFK was hit almost simultaneously with a FRANGIBLE from the right front, the North Knoll, which imparted a lot of force to the head. Also the Z-film is so obviously messed with at this point, ~310 to 330 (or ~300 to 320, I forget which), mostly removed frames IMHO. What was it around this area Chris Davidson figured? An average of 3 removed out of every 4 frames in this area? Which makes the limo NOT appear to slow drastically.
  3. Vince P., Thank you so much for providing so many great witness videos here. This one especially of the elusive, seldom seen/heard Dr. Robert Shaw is a big find for me.
  4. Wow, Joe Mc., thanks for your very informed opinions. Regarding Lee firing a gun that day (but only at whom he thought was maybe the rottenest animal alive, and whom he blamed, rightfully so, for making his life so unjustly worse) makes sense of all the "SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR" he exhibited that day, which really wasn't all that much. Big Aside: Citing "Suspicious Behavior" is how the LNs convict OZ-man and thus assassinate his character. By patently odd behavior I mean little actions like carrying his package to work stuck up under his armpit, getting dropped off by the cab five blocks from his house,etc. I always counter that nearly unbelievably simplistic thinking, "There was plenty of SB to go around before, during, and after the murder of Decency and Peace. The local police and about five other "law enforcement" agencies took no notes, made no tape recordings during nearly 48 hours of interrogation??? Of the guy who, if true, was making Judas, Brutus, and Cassius look maybe not so bad by comparison???????? Police car in the alley that J D Tippit was blocking, and that never makes it into the 27 volumes of the War Con???? The Harper Fragment and JFK's brain go missing???? " Death and intimidation of myriad witnesses???? (By the way, whatever happened to Acquilla Clemmons? I find the disappearances much scarier than the outright murders.) And on and on. In fact, there was more suspicious behavior by any one of a hundred men in positions of authority, than by that tough little cookie Oswaldskovitchnikovsky. And the SB that goes on to this day? End of Aside. Now, Ozman didn't shoot JFK and didn't have time to get to East 10th and Patton because he was at the bus stop at 1:05, at the Texas Theater around 1:10, JDT shot 1:09. No way could he have done all three in five minutes, even with a great driver delivering him at the scenes. And even If he somehow DID, he had tons of confederates at the scene. Which would remove the Lone from the Nut. Just one explanation for LO's SB in the scenario of LO shooting John B. Con (the slacker s$$ $$ $ $$$$h who blew him off repeatedly about his degraded discharge AND helped set up the murder of Amerikan Democracy) and no way could have shot the other John in the car ------------- There were no curtain rods and he carries the package in that strange way cupped in right hand, and tucked "under his armpit" as Buell Frazier described it and a man can't carry a package like that any longer than 25" in that fashion, right? And BF estimated the package at around two feet when he saw it in the back seat. And you can't break down a MC RIFLE that short. But you can get 30" what looks like under one's arm, but actually goes past and back of the armpit under the back of one's jacket. And LHO got a CARBINE in the mail. The mail order gun vendor was glad to get rid of any of that junk for more than scrap prices; they weren't too careful about what they sent out. I've broken down both the MC rifle and carbine. It's correct what the experts say about the length of a broken down MC rifle, almost three feet. But the carbine breaks down to a hair over 30". What about the problem of how Ozzie got the rifle into the building and up to the sixth floor? LHO left Wes at the car and walked way ahead of him (strange in itself) , so WBF is no longer a witness. As we all know Jack Edwin Dougherty, the straw boss/snitch for Roy Truly and Bill Shelley, stationed himself at the loading dock back entrance every morning to give the working stiffs the once-over as they came in. He saw Ozzie come in without said package. What happened to it? Easy, if you've ever worked at a warehouse. Anything thin enough, under 4", can be hidden in a stack of pallets. All you do is slide it in either: way above the line of sight, or way under the line of sight.
  5. Joe M., I am looking forward to that interview with Len Osanic soooooo much. Your new book too. And thanks for putting up your part in "50 Reasons...." again. I get something out of it every time. Probably ten and counting. About six weeks ago, I got your book Into the Nightmare on Inter Library Loan. It came to North Carolina all the way from the San Francisco Public Library, which I'm sure you have visited a time or two. When I was filling out the form at the Greensboro Library, the two guys at the Research Desk said, "You mean the movie guy?" I was impressed; it knocked me back a step. They both knew your cine work and valued it highly. Maybe that's why your book had a very short loan time compared to everything else I get there: I figure the nerds predated it so they could get a hold of it. Still, I was over a week late returning it; got special dispensation from the department to do so, until they would give me no more. Heckuva lot in there. I filled nearly a whole notebook with notes, ideas, cross references. I am especially grateful for all the ammunition I found on one of my pet theories: that Ozzie had INFILTRATED the plot, did his best to stop it, and sacrificed his life in the process. Now this is just me: He made em pay a little, dinged John B. Connally pretty good from the WESTERN end of the building. I call it the first fragging of the Vietnam "Conflict." That theorizing may bother most JFKA researchers, who seem nowadays to think LHO was in the breakroom, all alone of everyone in the whole TSBD. Of course, the Wiz didn't shoot Kennedy, couldn't have. Our dear Jack was hit at least three times from his FRONT, once from the right front "Grassy Knoll", and twice from left front, the South Knoll. In Into the Nightmare, I think I liked best how you evaluated ALL the previous research. I especially liked your take on good ol' Penn Jones, Jr. Maybe my favorite quotation in the whole book, when someone (could find who in me notes, but time....) asked PJ if he thought the assassins killed Kennedy to be able to get into Nam. "Hell no, the MILITARY did it so they could take OVER." And then P. D. Scott's idea of decadic military atrocities to keep the Cold War cash machine flowing. Early 50s McCarthyism, early 60s JFKA, early 70s Watergate, early 80s Iran-Contra and Star Wars, early 90s Bosnia and Iraq/Kuwait, early 2000s 9/11 and the War on Terra. Muchos muchos gracias.
  6. Speaking of DPD who aided in the assassination of the Wizard of Ozzie (even though this is the Croy...Mason topic), Jim Leavelle is looking worse and worse. There's a great Youtube video by Tom Meros, Jack Ruby's timely time-stamped visit to Western Union - YouTube that points out many of the suspicious activities of JL on 11/24. Starting with that white suit and white Stetson. Leavelle was probably the only man in Dallas wearing a white suit that weekend. Kind of like Umbrella Man was the only one holding a black umbrella and pumping it up and down. Tom Meros comments that wearing all white on that mournful day "was like wearing a clown costume to a funeral" With police like that, who needs criminals?
  7. Jim H., That diagram of Jack Ruby's probable path into the DPD 11.24 is pure gold. It HAD to happen like that. I've been looking for this for many years. That wiring of the measly funds from Western Union was time-stamped 11:16, and JR shot Oswald at 11:21. Allowing a minute, two at most, for the two clocks being off a little, JR got into position in about five minutes from the time he left WU. He had to have help getting in through a door locked from the inside. The Western Union is just on the other side of the DPD parking lot. There is no way Ruby had time to walk down any heavily-watched ramp, as the War Con speculated. IMHO, "Blackie" Harrison also assisted Ruby's getting into position. Wasn't the cigarette/cigar machine that had Blackie's brand at one of the exit doors? This action required at least two DPD to pull it off, at least one lookout and one escort. Probably since Harrison had a likely excuse to be at that door, it was he who was looking out for JR with the door just cracked open. And ol' Blackie was also around Jack Ruby, like Croy, when the old gangster jumped out and stuck his gat in Ozzie's gut. This diagram is priceless. Also, the work of the John Armstrong branch of the research community on Westbrook and Croy 11.22 is pure gold, especially at the Tippit murder scene. This is nailing down a big part of how the coup of 1963 was carried out
  8. Chuck, Thanks for noting the Lisa Pease appearance tonight. It should also be great. I changed the topic title for easy notification. My notes on Jim D.'s interview by Richard Syrett are forthcoming. The Stone-DiEugenio documentary JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass is in great demand all over Europe, and even Russia and parts of Asia. Everywhere but here. I am sure there is immense interest here in the US. What can break the dam of M$M (thanks, Niederhut) hegemonic control? Bribes? Begging?
  9. I can't believe this isn't noted here in the JFKA Debate. Jim is on with guest host Richard Syrett, hands down the best host for all things coup d'etat. And the bad thing about C to C is they don't archive their shows like all Jim's excellent interviews with Dave Emory, etc. You have to pay to be a C to C member. So if you're not a member, and you didn't hear it live, you missed it.
  10. One last thing, Robert. Your logic that, since DC mentions Alien Presence, all his other contributions are worthless, "lost ALL credibility," is one of the most elementary errors. I forget the Latin name at the moment, but it's as bad or worse than ad hoc, ergo propter hoc. (Sp?) It's as if you tried to call someone on the phone, but you misdialed or he didn't answer, so you contend the telephone does not exist. An egregious, though common, error in JFKA research. I find it incredible that the James DiEugenio/Joan Mellon faction of the research community thinks LBJ was NOT a prime mover in his predecessor's demise. But their other contributions are invaluable; their one blind spot does not obviate that at all.
  11. Robert, I have bit my tongue lo these many months you have polluted this site with your snotty, ignorant, idiotic, irrelevant, red-herring, fear-mongering swill. But this pushed me over the edge. Doug Caddy is a witness to history the likes of which I have never heard of. His new memoir, Being There, is aptly, modestly titled. He should call it Being EVERYWHERE. He was at the very beginnings of many important conservative movements. I believe Young Americans for Freedom and the National Review to name just two. (NB: I am going from memory for this comment, so I may be off on some details, but the gist of it is understated. At the moment, I don't have the time to research this to try to educate a dumb bunny like you.) Then there are the historic Americans he has known well, E Howard Hunt and Billy Sol Estes to name a couple very relevant to the JFKA debate. Doug was living in a New York apartment of a very historic, cultural, non-political figure when our dear Jack had his brains shot out on an American street. I can't remember the name at the moment; some big talent in serious music I believe, not my bag unless it's me Boomer tunesters. He got the news from a tickertape, I believe, and was the first to notify the Rockefeller administration. (Sheese, I'm mangling this.) Lawyer/ lobbyist for General Mills in DC at a very critical time. E H Hunt's lawyer when Watergate broke, defied Judge John Sirica over not IDing someone or other. Sent to jail for it for a little while. Then there are Doug Caddy's contributions to this site. Just his current/news type links are beyond compare. Nowhere else do I get such a wealth of those.Then there are his other contributions, too extensive to go into here. Doug's most amazing talent, IMHO, is his ultra-lawyerly skill of speaking off the cuff, which is reflected in his writing. He is as brief as possible, not a wasted word. He cannot be distracted off the subject. He is as colorful as John Barbour but way more informative per minute, and, as I say, completely undistractable. Witness his appearances on Coast to Coast. I have never heard anything like them. There's much more, but this is running on and I need to say something about this "Alien Presence" that you keep blowing your nose on. One, there are many credible researchers who have amassed evidence of patterns of phenomena that cannot be explained by our science. Charles Berlitz, of the language school family, is about my favorite. Check out his books on the Bermuda Triangle and the Devil's Triangle. He allows readers to draw their own conclusions, for the most part. He has NOTHING about UFOs and other boilerplate ET movie nonsense. I have seen in at least two other topics where you have immediately distracted the debate with your irrelevant sneering at something you saw in some stupid movie. That, to you, is what the Alien Presence is all about. It's snot. There is also a good case to be made that Mother Earth is a sentient organism of some type we don't understand. I believe Berlitz came to a conclusion like that. Last thing: if you're going to be a supercilious blowhard, can you at least learn simple written English? In the last sentence of yours above, you have "its" when it should be "it's" the contraction of IT IS. In the sentence before that, you have the possessive "its" as "it's" (remember hers, ours, yours does not take an apostrophe - the possessive is in the form) and you have the plural of a family name with the idiotic, WRONG apostrophe, as if it's the possessive. Man, my 6th grade English teacher would have browbeaten us half to death if we wrote at that 3rd grade level. And you do it consistently, repeatedly. Oh and by the way, that boogeyman Antifa is coming down your chimney dressed as Santa Claus. They're right behind you! Be afraid, be very afraid. PS: Thank you so much, seriously, for reminding me to order his book. If only to clarify, for me, Doug Caddy's and America's amazing history. PPS RE there/their/they're, do you EVER use the right one? I mean, if I were to read your garbage, it would take twice as long just to figure out what you're trying to say.
  12. Caption 1: "We gonna crucify 'at boy." due to the cross-shape over Kennedy's right temple; or Caption 2: "Leading the lambs to slaughter," because Jackie's holding innocent little Lambchop (you can see the hand-puppet very well if you magnify this very clear picture) with her left hand AND the President with her right hand. This was practically poor innocent Jackie's first domestic political/election trip EVER; or Caption 3: "Next victim for the shooting gallery!" the way they cleared a path for the poor guy. Connally, in rear 3/4 view, can still be seen to be scowling or grimacing, just not looking happy for this once-in-a-lifetime event. Host governor in his home state escorting the sitting president and leader of his party. Yet the whole trip, JBC is looking like he's getting a series of rabies shots while farting in church. He ain't comfortable. Also he's leaning on the roof support, in true slacker fashion. Didn't get a good sleep last night, and he has to save his energy for "the fireworks" as Jack Ruby so aptly put it. Who took this picture? It's quite professional. Too bad the professional reporters and photographers got moved to the back of the parade.
  13. Douglas, thanks for the heads-up. Strange thing, George Noory is the last to have seen Hoffa alive. The last to admit it anyway. He has told the story many times on Coast to Coast: he met Jimmy at the Detroit radio station where he worked, kept talking with him after the interview, walked him out to his car. Hoffa was never seen again, not by anyone who admitted it. A story rarely mentioned in assassination literature: fairly early when Bobby Kennedy was Attorney General, he sort of ordered Jimmy Hoffa to come to his office, made an appointment. RFK was very late, something like 45 minutes, if memory serves. When he finally sashayed in with his big sloppy Newfoundland (name Beau Brummel?) JH immediately grabbed him by his collars, lifting him off his feet, and pinned the US AG (!) against filing cabinets. With a few choice words, though not loudly. The lawyer with Hoffa rushed up and got between the two and it was over, as quickly as it had begun. Bobby acted like "no harm, no foul."
  14. Thanks for this, Ron B. Disproportionately, ex-military is responsible for these crazy shoot-em-ups and mass shootings. They have the most access to weapons, and the most motivation from being told constantly during their "service" that they are the epitome of homo sapiens, and that civilians are "dirtbags", their pet name for us. There's a great new book out, Bring the War Home: The White Power Movement and Paramilitary America by Kathleen Belew. She's been on C-Span a couple times. She's done the research and notes, brilliantly, that after every war there is a big surge in vigilanteism and KKK-type movements, "survivalism" and all that happy crappy. IMHO it is due to those boys don't want to work, so they talk themselves into believing that the most important job is waging the "just revolution," for which they are coincidentally the best, most fit "heroes" for the "job." The reader of this Dallas article will notice that the make and model of the firearm is omitted, nowhere to be found. Inanimate guns have more rights than we do! Wouldn't want to hurt Armorlite's or NRA's feelings. Gun carnage reporting rarely identifies the gun(s) used. Or a mere mention is buried under a mountain of detritus. As one of Early Cuyler's hats says, "Guns don't kill people, they just make it a whole lot easier." And a whole lot more cowardly, few seem to note. Going up against unarmed men, women and children must make the modern American "urban-soldier" feel all the braver, befitting this insanity we find ourselves in. The semi-automatic rifles, assault or otherwise, are way more deadly than the Thompson machine guns that were outlawed nearly a hundred years ago. One, they are much lighter so any work-allergic weak slob can carry and wave one around. Two, with all these light, modern, high-capacity clips, it's easy for the p.o.ed slacker to get off hundreds of rounds during his "mission". Less than three years after Kennedy was slaughtered four blocks from the site of this Earl Cabell Federal Bldg., ol' Charlie Whitman, ex-mil., lugged his arsenal up a tower at a Texas university and laid waste. This was the first of the modern mass killings. And don't forget the horrific injuries. The Connally Commission followed. Ron B., you ask: Is this what JFKA has wrought? I figure it's like the chicken and the egg. Did this government paralysis that makes us unable to do what every other wealthy nation has done, cause JFKA? Or the other way around? They both evolved together.
  15. James: I have to hit the hay. I did a brief search. There are a few pics of the dent in the rearview mirror. CE 350 shows it sort of accidentally; it's trying to be a photo of the windshield crack from the front of the car. That's where the mirror damage is seen many times, from various pics of the front side of the windshield. Pam Brown has some good essays about the damage, mirror noted often. As for the ashtray that was between the Connallys hanging on the back of the front seat, I've looked for a photo of that lately. I know I have seen it but haven't been able to find it in a long time. I'm thinking Groden. Livingston? High Treason? One problem with googling both of these dents, the back-and-forth about whether there's a through-and-through hole in the windshield seems to take up all the space. IMO there was no shot THROUGH the glass. I'm such a computer dumbkopf, the only way I know how to do it is a laborious way through bookmarks in these postings. In brief, the mirror damage is commonly seen, though not easily found except in pics of the front side of the windshield. The ashtray-plate dent is noted in many places in text, but it seems like years since I saw a photo of it.
