Dead men tell no tales!

You actually think either a wife or child would talk to you or even that they had been told anything of value? The friends I have that are retired CIA certainly wouldn't!

I was assigned to Detroit Homicide on two sperate occasion and having more than two investigators with a suspect was absolutely forbidden. This was in the 1980's.

Jim D-I always find a change as good as a rest and fiction is easier to write than NF. Last three book of mine published were worked on at the same time and all sold well.

Visiting our son, the forensic Structal engineer and his family and reading "The Devil's In The Details" for the 10th or so time and taking a break for working on my 3 books for a week or so.

As I said before I never met Harlan Carter. Charley and I were both writers for a number of gun magazines. I never discussed JFK because Charly was an egomaniac and a murder! I was a Detroit copper whose assignment included SWAT and Homicide. I knew Charly when he was in southwest Asia and later. He was a most disagreeable person

I knew Charley Askins rather well and disliked him and that isn't Charley!

I don't and have been interested in this since 11/22/63 when I was a history major at BYU.

I agree with most of his findings, but he hasn't achieved perfection yet!

I was at BYU in Utah. In the beginning there were no anti Warren commission books, jut my memory of what I saw and heard. Went do2n to the basement of the condo yesterday and rummage thru several large boxes full of books that solved the crime. Only recently, however, do I feel confident we've found the actual conspirators-Joint Chiefs on the top end and JM Wave in Dallas. Others can and will disagree, but John Newman and Larry Holland have struck gold. Case really closed!

How much merit there is to this book-if any-requires a rather lengthy study of its claims AND IF they can be proven. For me it is simple, Joint Chiefs at the top and JM Wave in Dealy plaza.

Trying to interpret polica jargon without being a veteran officer of that agency is pretty unlikely. I joined Detroit PD in 1969 fresh out college and it was whole language that took years to master. And retired from Detroit Homicide as a sgt in 1989.

Important to who?

Fascinating how this happens to pop up just in time the 60th anniversary.

Anybody, of course, can claim anything

Cops often think they know a lot about guns but my 20 years in Detroit Police Dept proved that was untrue. Occam's Razor should especially apply to JFk's murder!

And heat of the powder burning and the friction of the ice bullet would not melt it or distable it? I started being published in the gun and police mags in 1973 and have written three books on wound ballistics and I've never seen an ice bullet though I've handled and shot a number classified ammunition offerings.

I did two tours in Detroit Homicide, and we found that having more than two interrogators in the room was a serious mistake. And it was critical that the two in the room were spun up on the case. A Dallas cop told me that Fitz was only a "Success" with the poor and people of color.

Oswald's murder was too convenient to let the opportunity pass. An interrogation room full of "investigator's" is a great way to keep an interrogation from really going anywhere and it didn't.

Well, I did a tour in CSI and two tours in Homicide both in Detroit PD and I don't see anything revealing in these "clues".

Anybody can confess to anything. I, however, have an alibi for November 22nd. I was in Provo, Utah, with a peanut butter sandwich not a Mauser.

arrived last nnight. Too busy with my own three books progress which have nothing to do with JFK but the concept intrigues me.

Larry-the picture of Oswald could have also contained someone who shouldn't be seen in his company or perhaps with a background that would create major problems.

Asa Detroit copper I personally experienced the BOB experience. It is extremely powerful!

Larry, the Cuban-American female officer has been a friend for decades and only recently became aware of my interest. She said it was rather common knowledge in certain neighborhoods and those she talked to expressed admiration for Bill Harvey.
