Carter wanted to reopen the investigation on the assassination of JFK

[Paz Marverde]

So, it seems that in 1979 Carter was going to reopen the investigation on the assassination of JFK, but a very strange menace to his life, containing a clear message, blocked him. Any confirmation?

Paz, see the first few posts of the "Warning to Jimmy Carter" thread that you recently bumped (and in which I posted back in 2005 about Donald Etra whose name I had since forgotten). 

Apparently the source of the idea that Carter wanted to reopen the JFK case was conspiracy radio talk show host Dave Emory. No one seems to know what Emory's source was. So unless and until  someone finds out from Emory himself, I think the idea has no basis in known fact.

Ron, yes, already read them, thank you. That's the problem. We need a confirmation

Ron, I know Dave, I used to work with him at our radio station, but I haven't seen him in many years.  He's a good guy.  There was an hour of public affairs a day. The rest was music. They were a bit snobby about the small public affairs programs, of which Dave and I had shows. At fundraisers, They'd remark how unusual some of the Emory followers were dressed, army fatigues, camouflage clothing, which was a bit unusual 25 years ago, but not at all now. But still Dave was by far the biggest fundraiser at the station.

I had never heard from him that Carter wanted to re open the JFK case, though I do remember having heard that Carter wanted to open the government files on UFOs and had witnessed UFOs.

Kirk, why don't you contact Emory since you know him, and ask him about Carter wanting to reopen the JFK case? Specifically how did Emory know that, if indeed Emory made such a statement?

Good idea. Kirk - I used to listen to his broadcasts, which I believe he took over when Mae Brussell passed. Do I have that right?

I second that too. Thanks in advance. It is really important

Lost in all this talk of Carter wanting to reopen the JFK assassination investigation is the fact that the HSCA investigation was going on concurrently with the first half of the Carter administration.

Or is this about Carter desiring a new investigation AFTER the HSCA investigation concluded?

For what it seems, Carter wanted a Commission specifically dedicated to reopen the investigation on the assassination of JFK, or maybe an investigation by an attorney. In any case, your doubt is one of the reasons why I would like to know from that journalist what exactly were his words meaning

Should probably change the title to reflect the fact that no confirmation of this has ever been found (to my knowledge).

That's right, the timing just doesn't seem possible. But I'll try to get in touch with him.

 

Stomp out fake news!
