Guest Rich Pope Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Anyone who claims Jack Ruby wasn't connected to Carlos Marcello is a fool. Anyone who doesn't understand how powerful Carlos Marcello was is naive. Anyone who doesn't think LBJ was part of the conspiracy to murder JFK is laughable. The proof is in the pudding. We know who did it, we know why it was done. The most important thing is WHY is it still being covered-up.

John Kozlowski Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Do you have any credible evidence to back up the claims you make everyday? All your theories are pushed by Roger Stone, John Davis, Barr McClellan etc. People who’s work has been discredited years ago or questionable at best. You constantly post this crap and when asked for evidence you ignore the request. Why not just post your evidence so everyone can take a look at it? To me and a few others it seems like you just Google “JFK conspiracy”, find a theory and state that as fact. There’s never any evidence to back it up, ever. Just like the WATS system claims you’ve been making. How do you expect to be taken as credible without actually being able to prove a word you say?

Denny Zartman Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 No one says Marcello wasn't powerful, but was he powerful enough to get into the autopsy room at Bethesda? To me, logic suggests that it is similar a one-way street. Going one direction, the flow is fairly smooth and largely without incident. Going in the other direction, someone would face numerous difficulties because of the inherent design. If the CIA goes to the Mafia for help in committing an illegal activity and it is successful, it is a win for the CIA since they achieved their objective without getting their hands dirty. If it is unsuccessful, the Mafia bears the blame and shoulders the responsibility and the CIA has plausible deniability for the entire affair. Conversely, if the Mafia were planning a crime such as killing someone, especially someone outside the underworld, and more especially a high-ranking US government official, I have great difficulty imagining that their first step would be to alert the authorities and ask for their assistance. Or is the argument that the CIA got wind of the Mafia's plan against JFK and sort of "piggybacked" their way to Dealey Plaza? Even in that event, there had to be some government official that made the decision to let the Mafia plot continue and through inaction and security reduction, get JFK killed. I think that theory has been advanced somewhere before. It doesn't seem plausible to me based upon other facts, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Marcello was not that powerful, period. The reason Blakey and Billings made him out to be so is they needed to do that in order to construct their antidote to the CIA concept. How do I know this? Not from some cheapjack book by John Davis. But from talking to John Volz. Volz was the late federal prosecutor who was assigned to the Marcello case. He told me that Marcello was not even the leading mobster in the area. That was Joe Carolla. Now if he knew that, then how could Blakey and Billings not know it? Therefore, the idea that somehow a guy who is not even a regional capo would be able to do what people like Davis and Waldron say he did, is a fairy tale. Further, the other part of the construct that Blakey and Billings tried to create, that there was still a connection between the Murrett family and Marcello's gang in 1963, is also false. That was shown by an interview the HSCA did with the wife of the Oswald uncle which Blakey and Billings did not include in the HSCA volumes. The more documents that were declassified by the ARRB, the more this idea was exposed. BTW, Jeremy Gunn actually sent me the stuff that Volz secured on Marcello. Does Rich Pope even know who Gunn was? Has he ever read a declassified ARRB file? Sure does not look it. He likes the books by Roger Stone and John Davis too much. Further, the three pieces of evidence that people like Roger Stone used to incriminate Johnson have also been discredited. That would be the whole LBJ ducked early bit, which was shown by Bob Groden in Absolute Proof to be wrong; the Mac Wallace fingerprint which was disproven in Mellen's book Faustian Bargains, and Madeleine Brown, who switched fathers for her kid later on. There is not much of value in John Curington's book, H. L. Hunt Motive and Opportunity, but he insists that Hunt was not at the Murchison ranch the night before. But he also adds that, Judy Baker style, she tried to convince Hunt that he was. Edited October 8, 2019 by James DiEugenio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said he just throws every wacky theory he finds at the wall and sees what sticks. You’d figure he would’ve learned after being banned the 1st time. I just hope people new to the forum who come here and see his claims of being CIA and having insider info don’t take him seriously. To me it lumps him in with the serious researchers and hurts their credibility. That’s just my opinion but I wish @James R Gordon and @Kathy Beckett would make him attempt to show some sort of evidence if he’s going to make these claims.

Is this in reference to the Altgens photo of LBJ's limo, where Lady Bird and Senator Ralph Yarborough were sitting up and smiing while LBJ appears to be crouching down out of sight? Didn't Yarborough report that LBJ was, in fact, crouching down in the limo as the entourage entered Dealey Plaza? If true, it suggests that LBJ knew that JFK was going to get whacked in Dealey Plaza, while simultaneously worrying that the assassins might also whack him...

James DiEugenio Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Its not true. Groden deals with this in his book Absolute Proof on page 272. Johnson was not crouching down at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson describes the Altgens photo as definitive proof that LBJ was in the loop on the assassination plot. I don't recall where I read about Ralph Yarborough's observations in the limo-- possibly in Nelson's tome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secret Service Agent Youngblood did not jump over the seat to protect LBJ, nor did LBJ duck from shots. But he may have leaned forward to hear what was coming over the SS radio. Per Yarbrough. Maybe dot dot dash? https://parsleyspics.blogspot.com/2011/03/beethovens-5th-and-morse-code.html Edited October 9, 2019 by Ron Bulman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph McBride Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Senator Ralph Yarborough told me LBJ leaned over the space between the driver's seat and the front passenger seat as Rufus Youngblood also leaned over to listen to the agent's walkie-talkie while they were going through the Triple Overpass. Yarborough said LBJ and the agent were about six inches apart. Yarborough was sitting in the back seat with LBJ and Lady Bird. I noted that since the Altgens photo shows LBJ ducking earlier on Elm Street, Yarborough evidently was off a bit on the timing of the leaning over. And Yarborough said the LBJ/Youngblood story about the agent jumping over into the back seat was false. More details are in my book INTO THE NIGHTMARE.

He gets cornered every time, shown up and made to look foolish. I've been lurking here regularly since 2004 or 2005, and hadn't noticed his presence before. Wonder how I missed that? It would be good if he were cornered on the matter of evidence. But it seems that if he was held accountable for that, then the lone nut people here would, in fairness, need to be held accountable for their pot stirring, avoiding answering questions regarding evidence, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
