Gerry Down Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 In the last 10 minutes Blakey says he knows the names of two Marcello assassins who were in Dealey Plaza during the assassination. But he does not name them. Does anyone know who he is referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Davies Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 He probably does not name them because they are still l.iving and could sue for libel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Davies Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 And how does he PROVE that it is true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there would be anything libelous about saying there were two Marcello associates in Dealey Plaza during the shooting. If he can prove they worked for Marcello and can prove they were in Dealey Plaza then there would be nothing libelous about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant was that while Blakey may have known these were master assassins, from a legal point of view he could have just called them 'associates' of Marcello and pointed out their past and let the public make the connection that these 'associates' had the capability of being the assassins of JFK. I haven't read Blakey's book. Maybe he names them in that. I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James DiEugenio Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 This story is pretty old. John Simkin wrote about it a very long time ago. And I think Larry Hancock did also in his book Nexus. Larry would dispute these were Marcello guys I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Robertson Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 I think the importance is the first sentence I started it off with which is Oswald was intelligence. The rest of the episode is him saying the warren commission painted a story for the public and his investigation was hindered by the cia max fbi.
