Lots of people have questioned the fact that Files was in the military, simply because of the lack of records, which Files says were purged. Has Mr. Ostertag taken away those doubts? Wim J – Oh, okay! Why do you suppose the news media don’t take an interest in your story? JF – Nobody wants to admit it. Everybody thinks I am a nut job. But like I say, I’ve had enough things that I have said, it has been clearified, it has been verified, there’s documents…….. But nobody really wants to solve the Kennedy case. The American people, I don’t really think they care. The news media, they need something that they can go with every year. You’ve got a lot of people that make a lot of money writing books. I don’t know how many books, how many books have been written about it? J – A couple of thousand? JF – Yeah. Why put all them people out of work?

Thanks John, Unfortunately, your are not an expert. Wim #19525, "RE: Wim Fabricating Truth of the XP-100 on his website" In response to Reply # 49 I have just been informed by a fellow researcher that Wim is posting my threads, including this initial one on John Simkin's research forum. He including the rebuttal in his e-mail to me. Is Wim that desperate to prove his case that he would sneak off and post my threads from this forum to be argued on another without my knowlege so that I cannot respond to his so-called experts rebuttal? I guess that is one way of having the last word!!! The rebuttal is worthless as his so-called expert is so clueless that he misses my point altogether. Like talking to the wall... I guess Wim believes he has a better chance with another audience. Even his so-called expert does not believe in Files, so it is only a matter of time before he starts getting heat there and has to move on again. How many forums are out there? LOL Al (Wim: It is precisely these kinds of characters why I am posting here )

The interesting part: Some interesting things happened with Files' military record and his criminal history during the sentencing part of his trial. The military refused to honor the subpoena for his records. ------- Another question: Why were his rap sheets "cleaned"? Wim Van:Dave Ostertag (daveostertag@aol.com) Onderwerp:James Files View this article only Discussies:alt.assassination.jfk Datum:2001-09-24 08:44:46 PST Hello to all. I'm the Police Officer that James is in prison for. I was shot in the chest with an exit wound on the right butt cheek. Personally I think he is full of dung. His story chages to fit the facts. I think he is entertaining though. I'm glad that he and Dave Morley will probably be spending the rest of their life in prison. Some interesting things happened with File's military record and his criminal history during the sentencing part of his trial. The military refused to honor the subpoena for his records. In regards to his Criminal History. I had arrested Files in 1984 or 1985 for a bond forfeiture warrant for possession of explosives out of Texas. I remember looking at his criminal history at that time and saying, this is a guy I'm going to run into again. He had a hommicide and other arrests and convictions on the record that showed he was a true professional criminal as compared to the street thugs you normally come across. I saved the Criminal History knowing that I would see him again. At the time of my gunfight with Files and Morley his rap sheet was clean. Both Files and Morley had active Federal Parole warrants at that time. Neither warrant appeared in the NCIC computer queries. Morley had begun his criminal carreer in 1975. He and his Step Father broke Morley's Step Brother out of a prison in Florida. Morley shot twqo Prison Guards in the escape and was shot three times himself. He was dropped off at a Hospital in Atlanta where he was arrested. The Step Brother was killed by the FBI a year later in Mobile, Alabama. Morley was sentenced to prison for the breakout and for shooting the Guards. He escaped in 1982 and was later caought and sentenced for the 1982 escaped. He had done time for that and for three subsequent Federal convictions and prison sentences with Files for Bank robberies. The Federal Parole violation warrants outstanding at the time of my gunfight with them were for the last Bank Robbery convictions. When my department arrested Morley one week prior to our gunfight, he had no arrests or convictions or the warrant on his criminal history. Files also had a clean criminal history. The Probation Officer that prepared their pre-sentence investigations used the 1985 criminal history that I had saved for Files and, had to contact local Law Enforcement and the Florida Department of Corrections to rebuild Morley's. I'm sure that there is an explanation but, it does raise questions. I'm just glad the two of them will be spending the rest of their life in prison. Just wanted to check in and say hello. -------------------- The other side of this story is here: http://www.jfkmurdersolved.com/jail.htm

i think wim does not believe the armstrong theory that a different oswald came back from russia wim will explain himself Indeed, and the audio tape of Oswald in Russia proves my point. Wim

Clyde Haygood was the officer who lays his bike down and first runs up the knoll. I called him a few months ago. He says he did not have his gun drawn. But I was more interested in seeing the motorcycle officer that actually shot up the knoll with his bike (according to Bowers and Holland). BTW, I wonder how Bowers could have seen that from the railroad tower. Wim

Below is a fragment of the Warren Commission testimony of S.M. Holland, who saw the assassination from the triple overpass. Lee Bowers was also saying that a motorcycle cop shot all the way up to the incline of the grassy knoll, towards the spot under the large tree where Holland saw the puff of smoke. Why is this not visible on any photo or film? Wim Mr. HOLLAND - Sheriff's department parks in there. District attorneys' cars park in there. It is railroad property, but they let them park in there and save that 25 cents. Don't put that down. Might get in trouble. Now, do you want to know about the two policemen that were riding in that motorcade and one of them throwed the motorcycle down right in the middle of the street and run up towards that location with his gun in his hand. Mr. STERN - Toward--- Mr. HOLLAND - The location that--- Mr. STERN - Where you saw the puff of smoke? Mr. HOLLAND - Where I saw the puff of smoke. And another one tried to ride up the hill on his motorcycle and got about halfway up there and he run up the rest of the way on foot. Mr. STERN - Go ahead. This is at the time of the--- Mr. HOLLAND - At the time of the--- Mr. STERN - That the shots were fired? Mr. HOLLAND - The shots was fired. Mr. STERN - Two motorcycle policemen who were in the motorcade? Mr. HOLLAND - In the motorcade, and one of them throwed his motorcycle down right in the middle of the street and ran up the incline with his pistol in his hand, and the other motorcycle policeman jumped over the curb with his motorcycle and tried to ride up the hill on his motorcycle, and he---tipped over with him up there, and he ran up there the rest of the way with his---

Good idea, Send the guy an email with that suggestion. I am sure he has received a lot of reviews. Trust me, you wanna see it. It's worth it. If you think it can be done in 3 minutes, it only shows there will be new information for you. The first half of that program is a recap of the assassination, the evidence, witnesses, the cover-up etcetera. So you'll be most interested in the second half. Wim

I hope "Bill Byas" stops lying about his identity. Judyth will be off line for the next 3 weeks, as she is moving. As for Mr. Reitzes, he has never met Judyth, never seen her evidence, yet his mission is to attack and discredit her. He is totally unqualified, in fact he is a vicious lying character, just like you. And if I were Judyth, I would not spend a word or thought on him. I would. BTW, I have invited Mr. Reitzes to come post his attacks here. I'm waiting ..... Wim

http://www.russianbooks.org/oswald-in-russia.htm refutes the two Oswalds claims convincingly. Wim

John, Yes, I have seen the enhancements of Sam McClung. I truly wish it were more convincing. Apparently it is persuasive for you more than for me. To me it is like looking to the clouds in the sky with my little son. We start seeing all kinds of things. No offense meant to you or Sam Mc Clung. Do I take it that you don't have a firm opinion on Nicoletti and/or Roselli? Wim

Dave Reitzes - in his usual distortive lying style - just posted this on Lancer on invitation of Bob Vernon. After calling each other names for years they seem to be brothers in arms now. The obvious question here is: Why do McAdams and Reitzes need to go through so much trouble if Judyth is so obviously a hoax? It seems almost a life mission for them to discredit Judyth and her story. Why bother? Wim John McAdams's article on Judyth Baker <http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/judyth.htm> highlights many of the problems with those portions of Judyth's story that have been made publicly available; but I'd like to also take a minute to emphasize a few more of the contradictions inherent in Judyth's accounts to date. This is a work in progress. JUDYTH VARY BAKER: THE STORY SO FAR (According to Judyth Vary Baker, Martin Shackelford, and Howard Platzman, Ph.D.) Note: Howard Platzman is co-author (with Judyth) of "Deadly Alliance: Outline of the Conspiracy," various drafts of which Judyth has submitted to assassination researchers and prospective publishers. Martin Shackelford has been described by Platzman as Judyth's lead researcher. Judyth Vary Baker worked for the CIA on an anti-Castro assassination project, and she can prove it. (1) Judyth was never an employee or agent of the CIA, and never said she was. (2) Judyth was introduced to Lee Oswald one day in New Orleans. (3) No one introduced Judyth and Oswald; they met purely by chance. (4) Or maybe not. (5) Oswald worked for the CIA on an anti-Castro assassination project (and others), and Judyth can prove it. (6) Oswald may not have worked for the CIA after all. (7) A photograph published in the Warren Commission Report shows Judyth standing next to Oswald. (8) There are no photographs depicting both Judyth and Oswald, and Judyth has never claimed otherwise. (9) Judyth met Jack Ruby only once. (10) Judyth met Jack Ruby twice. (11) David Atlee Phillips was one of Oswald's CIA handlers. (12) David Atlee Phillips may not have been one of Oswald's CIA handlers. (13) Oswald knew Phillips by name. (14) Oswald did not know Phillips by name. (15) Oswald knew his handler as "Bishop." (16) Oswald did not know his handler as "Bishop." (17) "Bishop" was Phillips. (18) "Bishop" and Phillips may have been two different people. (19) Oswald said that Phillips was "Bishop." (20) Oswald never said that Phillips was "Bishop." (21) Oswald knew his handler as "Mr. B." (22) Oswald did not know his handler as "Mr. B." (23) "Mr. B" was Phillips. (24) "Mr. B" may not have been Phillips. (25) "Mr. B" may have been two different people, one of whom may have been Phillips. (26) "Mr. B" was also "Bishop." (27) "Mr. B" was not also "Bishop." (28) Phillips was known as "Mr. Benson" or "Mr. Benton." (29) "Mr. Benson" or "Mr. Benton" may have been somebody else. (30) "Mr. B," "Mr. Bishop," and "Mr. Benson" or "Mr. Benton" were all the same person. (31) "Mr. B," "Mr. Bishop," and "Mr. Benson" or "Mr. Benton" may have been at least two different people. (32) Judyth met Guy Banister just once. (33) Judyth met Guy Banister twice. (34) Guy Banister was CIA. (35) Guy Banister was not CIA, and Judyth never said he was. (36) Judyth was introduced to Clay Shaw on one occasion, saw him from a distance on another, and spoke with him once on the phone. Shaw paid for some of her hotel trysts with Oswald. (37) Judyth simply met Clay Shaw one time. (38) Judyth did not know Clay Shaw. (39) Clay Shaw was closely involved in the anti-Castro plot with Ochsner and the others. (40) Clay Shaw was not closely involved in the anti-Castro plot with Ochsner and the others. (41) Judyth knew Carlos Marcello, who affectionately referred to her as "That Little Thing." She and Oswald met with him personally, he picked up the tab for many of their dinners out, and it was due to his influence that she was never murdered by the conspirators who killed John F. Kennedy. (42) Judyth did not know Carlos Marcello, and she has never claimed that she did. (43) Oswald discussed Richard Case Nagell with Judyth in some detail, informing her he knew that Nagell, whom he referred to as one of his "doppelgangers," "had purposely gotten himself arrested for fear of being set up as a patsy." (44) Oswald may have never discussed Nagell with Judyth, and anyone who thinks Judyth has referred to Richard Case Nagell in her writings is only making an assumption. (45) Judyth's mentor was famed surgeon and humanitarian Dr. Alton Ochsner. For a time she worked for Ochsner. (46) Judyth never worked for Alton Ochsner and never claimed to. They had no formal relationship. (47) Oswald knew in advance about the assassination and, in an attempt to infiltrate and stop it, walked with eyes wide open into the "patsy" role. (48) Oswald did not know he was slated to be the "patsy." (49) On November 22, 1963, Judyth and a number of her co-workers set up chairs and watched the assassination of John F. Kennedy on television. (50) Judyth and her co-workers absolutely did not watch the assassination of John F. Kennedy on television. (51) (To be continued . . .) **************************** 1.

Nagell carried Lee's Hidell name -- a name used by more than one person I had heard about----and other incriminating ID. Nagell let it be known that he refused to become a designated patsy. He may have thought Lee was the real thing, Lee told meC (sic) that perhaps Castro had commissioned Lee to kill the President. Having heard of some of the escape plans that Lee was trying to form in an attempt, of course, to get out of Dallas after he had done all he could (and not to kill, but to save, though Nagell didn;t (sic) know that), Richard Case Nagell, fearing he'd be set up in Lee's place, may have deliberately got himself arrested and out of the action." 45.

The Men Who Killed Kennedy: The Love Affair, 2003 documentary, A & E Home Video: "On top of that, he'd (Ochsner) been telling me what to do for a couple of years now, and was interested in everything I was doing." Worked for Ochsner: The Men Who Killed Kennedy: The Love Affair, 2003 documentary, A & E Home Video: "In the spring of 1963 Judyth was invited to join Dr. Ochsner in New Orleans on a temporary assignment. It was an exciting offer for the young scientist. The Ochsner Clinic and its founder were world-renowned." Judyth states, "Dr. Alton Ochsner . . . said he needed me there and that he wanted me to work in the bone cancer lab with Dr. Mary Sherman." Later, according to Judyth, Ochsner was persuaded by Lee Oswald to use Judyth on a different, clandestine project involving the assassination of Fidel Castro. The Men Who Killed Kennedy: The Love Affair, 2003 documentary, A & E Home Video: "Shortly after moving in, Judyth had a meeting with Alton Ochsner at this hospital (Charity Hospital of Louisiana), her first since arriving in New Orleans. She did not go alone." Judyth: "Lee accompanied me there and told me that he had to go in first to talk to Dr. Ochsner. This made me recognize that he had already had a prior association with Ochsner. When I went in Dr. Ochsner began to explain to me . . . about the project that he had been working on for over a year. And this clearly had to do with working with these deadly cancer strains that he knew I was well adept at handling. The idea was to try and get Castro ill, very ill, and eliminated through what seemed a natural cause, in this case cancer. . . . At any rate, at the end of the summer, he promised me that I would skip two years of school, go directly into medical school, at Tulane Medical School. Of course, how could I say no?" Miscellaneous references to Ochsner: Judyth Vary Baker (neworleans63@aol.com), post to alt.conspiracy.jfk and alt.assassination.jfk, June 3, 2002: "Dr. Ochsner met both me and Lee Oswald at Charity Hospital a couple of times.

John, Thanks, The gun you pictured is not easily concealed. It does not fit in a briefcase. Moreover, it has a silencer. The grassy knoll gun did not seem to have one (Mary Woodward: There was an ear-shattering sound from behind us) Do you believe Charles Nicoletti was one of the shooters? Do you believe Johnny Roselli was in Dallas? You might want to write Files a letter. He'll respond to you. Wim JF – The original plan was that we would be shooting at a fast moving target. And Nicoletti had no military experience and I already had advised him that he would have to shoot high and the target would be running away from him. That he would have to shoot above the head. And we were going for a headshot, I told him “it’s going to be hard for you to hit him from there”. ------------ J – Tell me about these mercury loads. Can you describe them ? JF – Well, it was a 22 round and he took the tips off, he drilled them out and he inserted with an eyedrop, he put mercury into the end of the round and he restilled them with wax. This is to make them explode on impact. ---------------------- JF – Wolfman, when I contacted him after all this went down, and this is several years later, this is when I first met Joe West and Joe West had come here and visited me, we talked and he asked me: Do you think this party called Wolfman would talk to me? And Joe asked me what his real name was and I told him: I won’t divulge that but I will call him and talk to him. So I called him on the phone and I told him I was talking to Joe West from Texas, and he wanted to know who Joe was and I explained all this to him and I said: Joe would very much like to interview you. I did not give Joe West your name but I told him that you was the one that manufactured the special rounds. He made six rounds for me to take to Texas, all mercury loaded. I said: He wants to talk to you very much. Will you talk with him? And he said: Get back to me! I’ll let you know. He said: I wanna check a few things. The following week Wolfman was dead. ----------------- JF – What I believe is this : ….. And I got my readings as a marksman, I’m a good shooter, always was, I’m not bragging on my stuff, don’t get me wrong, but that’s what got me my start with David Phillips. Because of something that I did in the service, and I made a mark there and it’s on record and it’s recorded, for headshots, for what I did, and the things that I did. But anyway, to make a long story short, as I am preparing to squeeze off my round, Kennedy’s head moved forward, just as I squeezed. It was already in process, the head started forward. To me … what I believe is, … and I did not see, let me clear the fact now, I never saw Mr. Nicoletti shoot Kennedy, but I know he was the man in the Daltex building, the man supposed to be doing the shooting. Therefore the head started forward and as far as I am concerned Mr Nicoletti hit him at that point. As I squeezed off my round, the head started forward, I hit it and blew the head backwards. ----------- You know, and to me .. a lot of people are going to think I am probably sick, but when you get into a firefight, that was the ultimate high. I ‘ve never used drugs in my life. A firefight to me, being in the service, that was one of the greatest things there was. It was the ultimate high. And at this point, when you’re stalking down somebody, and this particular thing … it stopped me from hunting animals alltogethre. When I was young I used to love to go shoot deer, rabbit, squirls, whatever I could get, pheasants. ------------------- J – Where did you get hold of a prototype weapon like the XP-100? JF – It was given to me by David Phillips. I had received this maybe a year prior or 8 months. A year prior to the assassination. The gun had been used twice before on assassinations, but nobody like a president or nothing. It was good for using … if you want to get into a close place area or somewhere …. somebody might say why use a pistol? Well, anybody that knows their weapons, this particular piece is very accurate. Very accurate up to a 100 yards. At a 100 feet I’m talking about , we’re shooting now from the grassy knoll down to the highway, to the street there, we’re talking roughly 30, 35 yards. We’re only talking a 100 feet, this is like shooting fish in a barrel. And especially with a 3 power scope on it. But the weapon had been used before, you could put it in a briefcase, you could walk anywhere with it, nobody would pay any attention to it. The case I had set up, I had a little loading press inside for it, in case I had to manufacture anything, I had a little holder for all the special rounds that were in it. Everything was packed, foam rubber inside, the case was watertight, waterproof.

I can recommend this DVD: http://www.jfkii.com Wim

Thanks John, The guy is Al Carrier, a motorcycle patrol cop from California, who seemingly has made it his mission to discredit Files (and me) on the JFKLancer forum, based on the alledged impossibility of the XP-100 to have been the weapon delivering the fatal headshot from the grassy knoll as Files decribed it. As for the choice of weapon for this particular job, let me quote Files himself: 1994: I told him I would like to use the Fireball. He said why that one? He said you've only got one shot. I said one shot's all I'm gonna get anyway if I wait until the last moment of fire and I may not fire, I said, and it's easy to conceal and I carry it in a briefcase and nobody will pay any attention to me and it's easier to walk away from there. ----------- Shortly before the motorcade came, I went back up there and started securing myself in a better position so I'd be able to reach the attache case at that point ...the briefcase...I knew once that I opened the briefcase up and pulled the weapon out, nobody's gonna be looking at me, the motorcade would be coming...making its first time...and I wouldn't have to remove the Fireball from the briefcase until approximately... they made the first turn on Elm Street there and I would have plenty of time at that point 2003: Chuck said: We’re going for a head shot now. I said: This I understand, I realize this. He said: You are not going to fire unless it becomes a necessity. He says: If I miss, then it’s gonna be up to you. He says: But you don’t fire, unless I miss. It’s gonna be your call at that point. So you got to be very alert on this. And I told him: Don’t worry about me. I got it, boss! And he said: What are you gonna use? I said: I’m gonna use the Fireball. And he looked at me and he says: Why? Why the Fireball? Now, the Fireball, for people who don’t know what a Fireball is, it’s like a cutdown rifle. It’s actually basically this long. It’s a weapon that was well ahead of its time, this was one of the prototypes, the agency had gotten a hold of it, it had been manufactured by Remington. Now, a lot of people are gonna tell you that this particular weapon was not available at that time. But this weapon was available. It didn’t go on sale untill a few years later. But this weapon had been manufactured as early as in 1961. We had a lot of trouble with the barrel blowing up when we used too big a round on it or something, overloads in it. A lot of problems with it, but they finally reinforced the barrel, we got it where it worked pretty good. And Chuck asked me: “Why the Fireball? Because you’ve only got one shot!” Because the Remington Fireball 2.22 is a single shot bolt action pistol and you can mount a scope on it. “Well, if I’m gonna wait untill you are through, I said, I’m gonna get one shot anyway, so it doesn’t really matter! Because I’ll never get a chance for a second shot. Because I will wait till the last possible moment.” He said: Okay, it’s your call! ---------------------- JF – Oh, I don’t know who was splattered I think one of the agents, probably one of the Secret Service agents riding on the back of the car. I am only assuming, I will say they probably got splattered because there was stuff everywhere. But one other thing I want to point out about the Remington .222 Fireball. It’s a high velocity pistol, the round travels aproximately 3180 feet per second. Now then, for this type of weapon there is very little recoil. Now a lot of people say there is a lot of recoil, it’s gonna jump and you can see nothing. And I have had a lot of criticism over the years over this here. So I’d like for somebody to go out to a firing range somewhere, a gunstore and take one of these particular types of weapons that carry a .222 round. You’re gonna find very little recoil. Especially when you are using an extended barrel weapon with a scope on it. You have the weight to hold it down, it’s not jumping and bouncing, you’re not shooting a 44 or 45. BTW, what makes you think it is unlikely that Files fired the shot? Wim

The Roscoe White story has pretty much gone down into history as a hoax. I know too little of it to judge whether this is justified or not. I do know that the main debunkers have been Gary Mack and Dave Perry. Are there any researchers here, who can shed a light on it? For example, I would like to know if Ricky White ever admitted his story was a forgery. He seems to have vanished into anonymity. Another question is if the FBI did indeed take the original diary from him? Wim

Congrats. How did you find them? Wim By the way, I'd appreciate your comments on this: "Wim Fabricating Truth of the XP-100 on his website" While the Lancer Forum was down, I took the time to browse some of the other JFK Assassination sites, as well as re-read a considerable amount of testimony from the WC, HSCA and ARRB. While doing this, I took some time on Wim Dankbarr’s JFKMurdersolved website and more carefully read his postings on the XP-100. Since Wim was confident enough to post this on his site, then I believe it is fair game and the readers should know what a crock it is. I have posted several times on the forum of the unlikelihood of a weapon such as the XP-100 being utilized a weapon of choice on the knoll in DP. Wim took a portion of those postings and challenged it on his site by using a gunshop owner by the name of Dan who knows as much about guns as Wim does. Maybe that is why he was so confident to post Dan’s reply which in itself, did not address my concerns, with exception of the recoil factor, and that was even laughable. I have stated time and again that this would not be a weapon of choice due to it being a handgun that is poorly balanced in the offhand manner of support, is difficult to pan a moving target (especially in the case of DP with a varying vertical, horizontal and speed range), is a one-shot weapon within this timeline of the shots as it has to be reloaded by hand, and the fact that Files or anyone else could not have followed such a close range shot through an optic or through naked eye to impact as he claims. The time in flight of such a shot was (2600fps at 90 feet) was .034 seconds. Consider the recoil of the weapon which would interfere with LOS and the startle reaction from the detonation and recoil, this is humanly impossible. Wim posted Dan challenging my recoil issue by comparing the Oswald rifle of 6.5mm MC to a 7.65mm. He states that the 6.5mm is slightly less than the 7.65mm. He is accurate with the 7.65mm 180gr recoil energy of roughly 19lbs, but fails to list the 6.5mm MC as it is roughly 12lbs. This is slightly less. He then refers to the .221 at 50gr of the XP-100 at 5-7lbs. What he fails to address, as he is incapable of understanding obviously is that the manageable recoil energy is not even comparable as one is dealing with a shoulder mounted weapon while the other is dealing with a hand held, extended arm handgun. To put this into perspective, lets compare the Remington XP-100 in .223 55gr at 7lbs and the Remington 700 in the same .223 at the same 7lbs. The XP-100 has to be controlled by the arms and hands while the 700 receives and controls the energy through the shoulder and into the upper trunk of the body. A weight dispersion difference of some 70%. This is like comparing shooting a full stock shotgun in comparison to a pistol grip shotgun fired in the off-hand mode. Which will produce more rise and recoil? Wim then follows it up with John Ritchson, Marine Veteran of the 2nd TET in VN and Gunsmith, who refers to the manageable recoil of the XP-100 to his .44 magnum. I was generous in my previous posts and compared it to my .41 magnum of slightly less recoil then the .44 magnum. Both having extensive recoil for a handgun. John then goes into fantasyland with his ability to thread a needle with his .44 at 150yds. While Wim tried to make a case for his Files theory, in doing so, he simply proved how ridiculous it is. In closing, I would like to point out how he lists the XP-100 as the “Most Accurate Weapon in the World”. Maybe he should check with Remington to get their opinion on that. Does anyone else wonder why the XP-100 is still under the classification of Experimental Pistol and why it is minimally manufactured and sold as simply a novelty weapon? Some snipers choice, eh? Al

The last few minutes of the interview I had with James Files: This is not on the DVD as it is rather messy and does not pertain to the assassination. In fact we had ended the official part and I think James didn't even know the camera was still running. http://www.jfkmurdersolved.com/reviews.htm

Wim, Yes i watched the interview. I was very surprised with the depth he goes into in some areas. There are some hazy areas and i have my doubts about a few things he said but a lot of what he says makes sense and appears to be truthful, I understand that there was a vsa (voice stress analysis) done on him and he passed. The VSA tests were done "before my time". Although the results were positive, I do not put faith or value in VSA or lie detector tests. They have put innocent people in jail, and got liars off the hook. They can also be manipulated. That is why I removed them from the website. The several attempts on his life are quite astounding and very murky indeed. I know a lot of people don't take Files seriously but I have to say he warrants a second look and further in depth study, have you any plans to make a documentary with footage of interviews and other evidence intersliced? I'd rather keep that for myself at this time. I trust you understand. He seemed to have had trouble with your accent a few times! Yes At first I thought that it may be a little tedious watching the same camera angle for a few hours but what he had to say was extremely interesting. Did Giancana ever mention him or did any other mob figure that you know of? Giancana did not mention him in any public sources that I know of, but then again, did he ever mention Charles Nicoletti for example? If you mean to verify whether Files worked for Charles Nicoletti, that has been confirmed by many others fom the Chicago milieu. He said Oswald could drive which was a bit odd, also Ed Hoffmans and Lee Bowers account of seeing 2 men by the fence is odd, perhaps he is beefing up his own reputation or is protecting someone else. Aside for the question whether Hoffman is cerdible or not, there is no doubt in my mind that Files was not alone behind the picket fence. He was also not the only one firing from the front. Whether Files was aware of others, is an entirely different question. Personally I believe he was not, he could be protecting them, but I just think he was was not aware of their presence. Keep in mind there were a lot of cars parked there, and this was a highly compartimentalized operation with people operating on a need to know basis. Likewaise he was not aware that people were assigned to kill Oswald, untill the guy showed up at this motel. Did he ever mention E Howard Hunt? Not to me, but you can ask only so many questions in 3 hours. It does not necessarily mean he knows nothing about Hunt. As you know, he did see Sturgis there. On a side note, the story of Chauncey Holt deserves more attention. He is a dynamite witness, much stronger than Files, if only his story would be known to the world in more detail, instead of only to a handfull insiders. Wim A lot of questions there for you? Once again thanks for the dvd, great work. John

Hi John, Did you form an opinion on the Files interview? I just got this in: Dear Wim, I just received the Files interview , Monday. It is both astounding and informative. I hate to use a cliche, but truth IS stranger than fiction. I have studied James Files for many years, and I find his statements to be highly accurate. This is the best interview of Files that I have ever seen. This is a "must see" for every serious student of the JFK Assassination! And you can quote me.

Hey Don, that's the greatest poll I've ever seen, especially with all the different motives listed. Very complete too. I think 'll make a link to it from my website. What you should add is a ranking or percentage list of the number of voters to show how many options they chose. You could do it like this for example: Voters with 7 options marked 345 Voters with 4 options marked 267 Voters with 5 options marked 202 Voters with 3 options marked 156 Voters with 6 options marked 97 Voters with 1 options marked 21 or like this: Voters with 11 options marked 0 % Voters with 10 options marked 0% Voters with 9 options marked 0% Voters with 8 options marked 15% Voters with 7 options marked 11% Voters with 6 options marked 21 ...... Voters with 1 options marked 5% Or any other way you prefer. You could also do another poll: Who were actual shooters in the JFK murder? And the list a bunch of names people can choose from, like Sarti, Bocognani, Soutre, Pironti, Harrelson, Nicoletti, Sturgis, Nicoletti, Oswald, Files , Roselli, Herminio Garcia Diaz, Eladio del Valle, Morales, Jack Lawrence and on and on and on. Dave Perry publishes a list somewhere. Wim

http://www.jfkmurdersolved.com/images/465.JPG http://www.jfkmurdersolved.com/images/466.JPG Page 466 of Double Cross, Gianacana's biography states that it was rumored that one of Trafficante's exile friends alledgedly sent to Dallas as triggermen for the hit, was a "former Havana vice cop, turned mobster" which would be roughly applicable for Posada. The description of a US customs agent is a fit for Cesar Disosdado, who showed up at Antonio Veciana's house days after the assassination to inquire what Veciana knew about the Kennedy Assassination. Veciana said he knew nothing, and Diosdado seemed satisfied. Wim

James, Very little new in there for me, but re-enforcing. When and where was this article published? Is this Cele Castillo still around? Why did he not mention that Felix is a close personal friend of George HW and that it was George who recruited Felix for the Bay of Pigs? Wim
