General Walker and the Murder of President Kennedy: The Extensive New Evidence of a Radical-Right Conspiracy
The new book by Dr. Jeffery Caufield, on Edwin Walker and the plot to kill John F. Kennedy.
It is a story we’re all pretty sure we know. On a fateful day in Dallas, Lee Harvey Oswald—working alone—shot President John F. Kennedy. End of story. Or is it?
In General Walker and the Murder of President Kennedy: The Extensive New Evidence of a Radical-Right Conspiracy, author Jeffrey H. Caufield explores the forces which led Oswald to be in Dallas that day. Unlike many theorists, however, Dr. Caufield applies acquired academic methodology in rigorously researching the story through public records, private correspondence, and a number of sources not available to the general public until the Freedom of Information Act released them.
Caufield explains that when President Kennedy relieved Major General Edwin A. Walker of his command in Germany in 1961, he (Kennedy) started the chain of events that would lead to his own death. In June 1963, President Kennedy proposed his sweeping Civil Rights Act bill that would abolish the sacred Southern institution of segregation. In response, the segregationists threatened a second Civil War that culminated in the murder of JFK. Working with a who’s who of fellow right wing radicals (including some of the most powerful military and political leaders of the time), Walker was in the forefront of a plot to assassinate a large number of people in power positions in both government and industry. This plot, masterminded by Walker, evolved into a plan to assassinate President Kennedy and made Oswald an unwitting pawn in one of our country’s greatest historical mysteries.
Meticulously researched over 25 years using documents from the National Archives, the FBI, and other archival sources—along with extensive personal interviews—this book presents a massive amount of new evidence (900+ pages). Never before has there been such compelling proof of the involvement of the radical right and General Walker in the murder of the president.
This book is in the printing stages, stay tuned for further information regarding availability and pricing.

Yep, In fact I have come to believe the attempt on Walker was a staged event, which had little to do with the plans for 11-22. I doubt they would have risked Oswald to arrest and conviction of attempted murder at that time. The DPD and the FBI are noticeably quiet about looking into Os as a suspect before December 2-3, when Marina officially spilled the beans. Nor can I find, any record of the FBI getting a report from Voshinin, or informing Walker that they may have a suspect in Oswald. (Doesn't mean it didn't happen) As I say, I recall that Walker bitterly complained about the lack of follow-up with regards to his case. Why would he do that if they were keeping him informed? To Cover himself.... posssibly!?
I'll have to refresh my mind on this regarding time frames, by looking at my files.
Yes Hunt is a prime suspect, whom Walker tries to distance himself from after 11-22.
A main puppet master in the Walker arena is Robert Morris.... who was the brains of the 'outfit'

Paul, There is no evidence that I know, of Walker ever mentioning Oswald in public before assassination, and in my mind there is a good reason why. He didn't want to have Oswald arrested or under suspicion, or taken out of circulation. There were still plans for him. This was why he was never charged with distributing communist literature in NO's It was "hands off" this guy....for now.

The claim by Walker regarding LHO being arrested on 4/10/63, is something Walker and (I suspect Robert Morris) made up as a way to get back at RFK for the Generals humiliation after his Ole Miss. imprisonment. Walker also included the fact that his source for this story came from someone in authority who would know (paraphrasing). He later intimated it was from someone in the DPD. I believe this was a dig at the DPD for his perception that they were dragging thier feet, in regards to informing him what their investigation had turned up. There are many documents in the record from Looney ,Looney and Watts (Walkers lawyers) demanding full discloser for their clients welfare. The incident never took place, it grew and changed along the way, to include Jack Ruby as well! This is why there was no record of it, it was all a ruse and a way for Ted to CLAIM that the actions of RFK (to his ultimate shame) had backfired and resulted in his own brothers death.
Edwin Walker was man scorned and never let that vendetta go.... he milked it till his dying day.

Why would Baker or Truly describe whomever the encountered, as a suspect (to Sawyer)...when they had just let him go on Truly's word?

Paul, You probably won't find any copies of 'Life Line' during that period. Most, if not all of these relevant collections were purged long before they became available to the "public". We have run into that in almost everey case, It's as if 1963 never happened.
Nathaniel, you are correct... it's teach them not to care.

Paul, Did you come across evidence that Larrie actually knew Robert Alan Surrey, if so where?
Thanks

Paul, Yes I was referring to BW as scapegoat, and the fact he was Jewish could be played several ways by those who wished to, post 11/22.
I still find it hard to swallow that it was all a genuine (innocent) mistake, to have him as signator of such a caustic ad. Again, why the subtrafuge with the fictional sponsor?
Grinnan was much more than an errand boy in the bigger picture. He had bigger connections than I first realized, in radical Right Wing circles. It was no accident that he was involved in this caper.
But that's another ball of string.
Good stuff!

Vey interesting discussion Paul and Greg.
-If CUSA was so above board, why create a fictitious sponsor organization in the first place (TAFFC)?
-Why let Grinnan contribute the point of view of the JBS, and then list (without permission) a fellow CUSA member as signator?
Sounds like someone got hung out to dry...?

How'd he board the plane, a rope ladder?! Or did they have a stair ramp waiting in the river bed?

Whoever is the source of this description and or the layout of Oswalds apartment, and travel path out of such, has never been there! I have, and if you come down the stairs and make a right, you will hit a cyclone fence, if you go past that you will hit the building next door, where his landlord lived. This whole thing IMO, is bull-pucky.

Greg, I have been to the Oswald Apt several times. Even if Eames could not have seen Oswald behind the screen cycling and "dry firing" a rifle, he definately could have heard it if he was outside. I have even stood across the street and could hear the door to that apt.lightly squeek open and close.
Someone I met had a MC just like the supposed Oswald rifle, when we worked the bolt it was rather noisy, louder than the door...!

William, do you know of any aka's, like Penha for example?
No John , the ones I have checked are all "Pena".
There are a couple RIFS that could be the one I'm seeking, but it's hard to tell from the description. I believe it has at least 30 or more pages.
-Bill
You might want to refer that question to Gerald McKnight, who told me recently he is doing a lot of work down there these days and may be able to look into it.
Thanks, I think I found it, however it staes it's still "Postponed in Full". I have an inquiry to NARA tp see if that's still the case.

Just wondering if anyone knows if the previously suppressed HSCA interview of Orest Pena, is presently availble at NARA?
Anyone know the RIF #
Thanks!

Hmm, Seems to me GP Hemming also took credit for (his group) notifying Keating of intelligence regarding the missles. Does my memory fail me??

Oswald was captured and restrained thoroughly and handcuffed with his hands behind him. He was searched, he was the cop killer.
Yet, crucial evidence (Oswald had many opportunities to dispose of them) over the next 1 + hour/s remains in his pocket, to be found in particular circumastances and timing. I guess some things just take a bit of time to get done. (There were many opportunities when a thorough search would clearly have been indicative as needed during this time of detention, don't you think?)
The 'Chain of Custody' was shakey to non -existant in both instances (rifle and pistol). One has to rely on the word of the DPD.....are they trustworthy??

I thought the info in this thread is relevant to the discussion on the empty cartridge shells found on the sixth floor.
BK
.....Exactly, maybe a coulple of them ( from the Range) did end up there.....
-Bill

Not to make light of the subject, but sometimes we need some levity.
Anyway, one thought comes to mind. If there was indeed talk among the guys about "going back up" to the 6th floor, to eat. Why would Oswald risk (Allegedly!) going back up nonetheless, to carry out his plan?
There are too many people unpredictably flying around, for Oswald to have had any feeling of even momentary security.

Bill,
I hope you have your alibi worked out.
Uhhh, I forgot my cigs!... uh, yeah that's it.......
New Book!
in JFK Assassination Debate
Posted
Jon, It's good to be skeptical. I would reserve too much judgement till you can see the whole work.
I don't have time to engage in a long discussion about the "cover - up". However, I would suggest that (IMO) it was the result of multipal entities and Institutions and their various self interests, mostly having to do with pre- knowledge of certain people and events. Hoover and LBJ fit into that category...again just my opinion.
