It seems that I read somewhere that Dave Powers went to his grave with film of the shooting. If I remember correctly, he said that he would not put the Kennedy family through the added nightmare of seeing what was on his film. Afterall, he and JFK were very close friends as well.

I have just recently acquired a copy of Cyril Wecht's CAUSE OF DEATH, and seem to find proof that Sirhan could not have fired the fatal shot. Mr Karl Uecker, the hotel Maitre d, said that he had hold of both RFK and Ethel Kennedy as they moved through the kitchen. Mr Uecker said he saw Sirhan and thought that he was a houseman, an employee of the hotel. He said that the Kennedys were one step behind him and that Sirhan was ALWAYS in front of him, in fact he said that after the shooting started, he instinctively jumped FORWARD and grabbed the man with the gun by the neck. He further stated that he was between the two of them (RFK and Sirhan) the entire time, and that his eyes were on Sirhan the whole time, saying that Sirhan's gun never got closer to Senator Kennedy than a couple of feet. Some people have speculated that RFK was shoved by the crowd directly into Sirhan. This was physically impossible, IMO based on what Mr Uecker stated. Regards, Terry

Hello All. In the event that some may have missed the news, it should be mentioned that one of the subjects of this particular posting, former British Secretary of State of War, John Profumo died today at the age of 91. Proof positive that time waits on no one . Terry

http://www.dougiethompson.com/images/kristine-keeler4.jpg For the benfit of Ron Ecker's research, see the link below for more photos of this beautiful chair with Keeler and Joanne Whalley, who played Keeler in the movie. The movie Scandal is brilliant. I was thirteen when the Keeler Scandal broke in England and I read all about it in the News of The World. After that the word sex always meant Christine Keeler. I went to see the movie Scandal on the day it opened, and now sex means Joanne Whalley. John Hurt gives one of his best performances as Stephen Ward, and now I want to rent the movie again. http://images.google.com/images?q=%22chris...en&start=0&sa=N I think you will agree that Christine Keeler would make more money modelling than Paris Hilton does, if the Christine of these photos were to hit the scene today. Sadly for her, she was ahead of her time. Raymond, People who do not do spend time in the research community cannot imagine the rewards !!!

Can you imagine! Such an horrific event had just occurred, and business as usual ( Surreal ). Note the little boy in the center seems to be in tears. The people in the vehicles probably have no idea that a history altering event played out just prior t their arriving there at DP ( not to mention, as Jack pointed out, driving through a crime scene). Bullet fragments stuck in tire treads? Do we attribute this to confusion on the part of the DPD, or in fact to "Who's minding the Store." Terry

John, Would it require the Kennedy's permission to exhume the prisident's body? Throughout the WC period, it was often said things were done a certain way so as not to offend or to protect the family. But, it won't happen anyway! (too much could be learned) Terry

Dawn, you mentioned that Cesar "admitted" having his gun out. If I am remembering correctly, the LAPD ( in 1968) said that no guns were drawn. Do you know if this was the case? I am one who has always thought that this was in fact a "LONE NUT", but never could fit it into my thinking just how Sirhan could have possibly known that RFK would pass through that kitchen area. Also, any idea how this guy got into that closet without an employee not seeing him? Plus,I assume that he would have been waiting for some time for the Senator to pass in front of him, why was he not detectedRegards, Terry

Tony, I would greatly appreciate some more information on the attempted assassination of LBJ. Terry

Ya, another one of those one car "accidents" that leave you always wondering.... I wonder just how much RFK HAD learned by the time he too was assassinated. When I met Kennedy cousin Kerry McCarthy in Dallas in 97 I asked her if the family read on this case, especially John Jr and she told me that he did. Poor Ted, what he must know....(And I do believe he knows a lot and can do zero). Dawn Dawn, when Jackie said that they were killing Kennedys, she was dead on (pardon the pun). Sometime back, I started a post on what Ted might know and what he could do, and the response from fellow members was as you just indicated---nothing ! I do wish that he would pen a book on what he knows. He has been through a lifetime of miseries that nobody would wish on anyone. But, with some of the same people and/or their desicples still around, I'm sure he feels he must protect the family Terry

I will add to Mark's statement. Why was Bobby Baker allowed to live? Terry

Tom. are you of the belief that the shooter, firing the MC did not use the scope. If the scope were not necessary, and I do not believe it was, then that would remove all the discussions about the fact that shims (2 or 3 ??) had to be placed under it. Not to mention, the shooter having to relocate his target, each time, through said scope. I have stood on the "X" in Elm St., and feel personally, that a scope from the TSBD would more likely result in a miss, due to improper adjustments necessary for calculating distance. But, please note that this is only the opinion of an occasional deer hunter, certainly no expert ! Terry

I was wondering when you would appear from your darkened cave. Once more you are spewing out unprovoked insults and ignorant crappy assertions based on your "Miller knows it all" theory which is as accurate as Oswalds Carcano. You obviously do not keep up to date with Jack's beliefs on the Moorman polaroid.Let me get you up to date.He thinks it has been altered in some areas.If you want to know his full opinion,ask him yourself,i'm not your babysitter. You ask how many pop bottles can be seen in Willis and Betzner...What a STUPID question.I'm not even going to bother answering that as it is completely irrelevant,it's like asking how may Badgemen are seen in Willis and Betzner...geeeeeez. It appears to me from this thread that the majority in general are in favour of the Coke Bottle man although some say it appears he may be holding a camera or binoculars......live with it and go have a Coke to let that overactive hot wind blowing mouth of yours cool down.....unless you're still on the Jack Daniels of course.....hic Duncan.....Bills hero and photograhic interpretation advisor Duncan...you are correct that I no longer believe the Moorman polaroid is entirely genuine. For years for various reasons I believed it escaped the govt dragnet. I now believe, for various reasons, that the Moorman is altered in the extreme right edge to make changes in the persons on the pedestal. Be wary in dealing with "Bill Miller/Larry Peters"; he is not necessarily all that he seems. Jack Jack, this is in response to your scan versus the "drum" scan. I have never seen Badgeman depicted so clearly. I must have always only seen the "drum" scan, thus, have questioned the interpretations. If this enhancement can be duplicated by anyone( obviously, I mean, anyone with the proper equipment), then, I can see no argument about a shooter from the front. This seems, to me, at least to answer the perverbial question, "Where's the beef". It is right there in front of us. Terry

Thomas, How about President Ford's statement about moving the back wound location on the autopsy sheet upwards 4-5 inches to merely correct an error (on who's part). Speaking of pink elephants! Terry

John, as you know, we all watched the History Channel special, "The Men Who Killed Kennedy". Then we all watched as it was removed, never to be seen again. The argument for it's removal: that it was so insulting to the Johnson memory and absolutely no merit to the claims. Do we have only Billie Sol Estes left to validate any of this? Now that you have started the postings on the people supposedly ordered killed by Johnson, I hope that someone else can come forward to add credibility to these claims. Although, as I have stated elsewhere, everyone that could've had any association with any of this is dead or soon will be. (Time is unrelenting) Terry

Ghandi was right besideof me. Terry

John, Do you think that President Bush has Barr McClellan's son working for him purely as a slap in the face to the Johnson name, or has the present Mr. Mcclellan earned his place on GW's staff? Much has been said about this appointment, both here and on JFK Lancer. Terry Adams

I believe Gerry Hemming said he was involved in security at the Miami airport. T.C. Tim, that is correct. He also mentioned that no one was armed in this endeavour. Do you put any stock in what Mr. Hemmings has to say Thanks, Terry

If anyone takes Gerry Hemmings at his word, He says he was involved in protecting the president at the Tampa attempt. Terry
