.....there was a definite pool of blood found on the concrete at the top of the stairs leading up to the picket fence on the grassy knoll. How can this be explained? Collins radio was where Oswald went to train while a marine.....like my Dad did in WWII, as a Navy aviation radioman. It now appears that Naval Intelligence, the FBI, and the CIA had their people.....former military.....planted in police departments all over the country. The hatred for JFK in Texas was severe....especially by KKK members and right wing military vets. DeMohrenschildt talked, was filmed in Holland, asked George H.W. Bush for help, and got his head blown apart with a shotgun ! JFK Jr. once said : " Bobby knew EVERYTHING!" In many ways , the Civil War was not over 98 years past Appomattox....JFK became another Robert Gould Shaw. "Seven Days in LeMay" became a REALITY !

LBJ would not in a million years have accepted the vice presidency position if it wasn't going to lead to the big job. When he was given that position in 1961 Kennedy's days were numbered. Many organizations benefited from Kennedy being taken out. LBJ, mafia, CIA, FBI, Texan oiil barons, contracts for Vietnam (particularly Texan companies), Federal Banks, it just seemed the policies of Kennedy ruffled far too many feathers. The moment LBJ was sworn in all those issues with all those organisations disappeared overnight. RFK was probably taken out by the same people as the Kennedy clan were never going to get into the whitehouse again as the establishment knew they would immediately look into his brothers assassination.

From the perspective of the government pecking order, the veep seat was a huge demotion for LBJ. He absolutely took it for the proximity to the big seat. JFK wasn't long for the world anyway due to his health, and if he wouldn't do LBJ the courtesy of dying on his own, LBJ was happy to help him along.

The widow of Tippit is said to have told the story that another officer visited her after her husband's death, and that he had said both he and Tippit were detailed to search for Oswald. This should have been challenged by the contributer. It is quite possible that when the other officer visited Mrs Tippit, Oswald's name was known by almost everyone. What needed to be ascertained is whether the 2 officers were detailed for a suspect by name or by description. It would seem quite natural, where 2 people knew Oswald as the suspect the second officer used his name to Mrs Tippit, probably because she knew his name by that time.

One thing I have never heard mentioned in any interview, is why did the presidents vehicle travel so slowly on Elm Street? When the shots ran out the vehicle slowed, and at the time of the head-shot was almost stopped. With gun-shots running out most drivers would accelerate away. Very strange how that driver slowed down.

[@JohnJohnson-pq4qz]

Not only slowed down, but several witnesses claim they came to a complete stop and kept looking at JFK until he was hit in the head...then sped away. Since the time of the Roman Emperors, if you wanted to assassinate the ruler you had to first remove or compromise the body guards.

[@brianjanderson6361]

The driver, Bill Greer (CIA) turned around and shot JFK with an electric 45 calibre revolver. That’s why.

[@georgeschaut2178]

The driver (Greer) more than likely deliberately brought the limousine to a stop in order to give the shooters a better aim for the head shot (since it's easier to aim at a stationary target). Once the head shot was completed, the driver then accelerated out of the stop. Because this stoppage would look very bad for the secret service, the stoppage would then need to be removed from the three home movies. For this reason, the slowing down/stoppage is not apparent in any of the films, even though it was seen by numerous witnesses that day (& reported by CBS & ABC news in their live coverage that day). This would also explain why the three home movies have discrepancies between them in their content (& why films disagree with photos). I highly doubt that a professional limousine driver would get confused as to the difference between the brakes & the accelerator. George, Canada...

I've always found it interesting that the book, "Farewell America", was kept out of the U.S. until the 80's. The author, James Hepburn, is widely considered a pseudonym for the various intelligence agencies (outside of the U.S.) that felt the official story was false. Though the book is believed to have originated with the French, the heavy lifting of that investigation was done by the then, K.G.B. That particular agency had already penetrated the Manhattan Project, which at the time, was no small feat. They were understandably concerned that they were being made out as the scapegoat. Any incoming U.S. President is shown the same "evidence" to this day: Oswald was a defector. He was turned by the Soviets and Cuba, and The Warren Commision had to cover that up, and did. It seems as though Kennedy would've been much better protected by his adversaries.

Another possible piece to the Tippet killing may be that according Oswald's landlady, a police patrol car stopped before her rooming house, tooted its horn twice, and then left.

Frankly, I think many psychiatrists are much more bizarre than their patients. Seeing things every other person sees in a Rorschach test for me is not a proof someone is disturbed or dangerous, it could just be someone with a more frivolous or creative mind, someone thinking out of the box. Psychiatry is a lot of expensive words but for large parts pseudo scientific, with faaaaaaaaaaaar too much room to make errors in judgement. In many law suits in court, psychiatrist B will say the complete opposite of what his or her colleague A said, with as much assurance. Shows you it's still a lot of guess work to which all too often too much importance is given, simply because the exposé uses lots of fancy words.

33:28 - They could have had a "rendezvous". Oswald apparently asked the cab driver to take him to the 500 block on North Beckley. If Oswald had been set up, he might have realized that the "rendezvous" near Jack Ruby's apartment was a "setup", where he would be killed. As he didn't have his handgun with him, he could have decided he needed it at the "rendezvous". If Tippit was his designated driver, Oswald could easily have called Ruby from the Greyhound Station to tell him he was getting a cab to arrive in 15 minutes. That would also explain why Oswald "gallantly" let a woman take the first cab at the rank. If Oswald didn't arrive at the "rendezvous" point on time, Tippit might have driven towards Oswald's rooming house to intercept him. Ruby could have been at the scene, which would explain why the "botched" killing of Oswald left him no option but to shoot Oswald himself.

[@winggullseagull1230]

I think this is what really happened Tippit was "Badgeman" in the Mary Moorman photo. Because right after the shooting, Velma came forward in 2006 & told a radio talk show host she saw a man with a high powered rifle exit the back of the TSBD. (Sounds like Malcolm Wallace) she said Tippit was there & she saw Tippit telling him to move his car in the parking lot in back. If you notice in the Mary Moorman photo "Badgeman" looked like a policeman so it was easy for Tippit to pull it off because he was a policeman. It had to be a shooter that could easily get away with it & also Tippit was a crackshot. Who would ever suspect a policeman to shoot JFK ?? Nobody. After the shooting Tippit leaves dealey plaza & drives to an area not his normal beat & was at Gloco Gas station by the trinity river & goes to Top 10 Records to use the phone he was acting very strange & he was looking for Oswald to drive him to Redbird Airfield. Tippit arrived at Gloco gas station from 12:45pm to 1pm so Tippit had plenty of time after leaving dealey plaza. And the 2 cops Earlene Roberts saw before LHO left the rooming house, I think it was Captain Westbrook & officer Kenneth Croy they came to pick up Oswald to drive him to the cinema at 1:07pm. Then Westbrook & Croy drove to the crime scene & enroute the 2nd Oswald Rodger Craig saw get into a Rambler on Elm got in the 2nd patrol car. Virginia Davis saw several policeman after the Tippit shooting & Doris Holan saw a 2nd patrol car hidden in the alley by Tippit's car. Tippit got out & walked towards the 2nd patrol car & a shooter got out & shot him. The 2nd Oswald ?? Westbrook & Croy were in the 2nd patrol car. He was the one seen by witnesses & Johnny Brewer & after the police swarmed in Johnny Brewer fingered the real Oswald by mistake. Butch Burroughs saw the arrest of "Harvey & Lee" the patsy LHO was led out the front entrance & the 2nd LHO was led out the back exit seen by Bernard J.Haire of Bernie's Hobby House. The 2nd Oswald was escorted by 2 policemen & I bet it was Westbrook & Croy. Other witnesses saw the 2nd Oswald it's in "JFK & the Unspeakable" by Jim Douglass. Tippit, Westbrook & Croy were in on it. It all makes sense & ties together. Any case the grassy knoll shooter was not Charles Harrelsen he later denied it & forget James Files he's not credible. Tippit shot JFK & the 2nd Oswald shot Tippit....now case closed.

At 37:44, a thought crossed my mind. Because Ruby was on Team Mob, it is quite possible that he was on a need-to-know basis from his handlers. His insistence on going to Washington to tell HIS side of the story - forget the stupid movie! - would tell me that Ruby had no earthly idea how far up this went; as far as he was concerned, this was a mob hit. If Ruby would have even had two pieces of information about the FBI/CIA nexus, he would have known better than to insist on an audience in D.C. Hell, it would be like a chicken leaving the relative safety of the coop (jail) for the inevitable killing fields of the wolves; staying in jail would have made him a mob hero akin to someone who doesn't rat out the org in a court of law. Just a thought - given Ruby's propensity for bombast and possessing a grandiose, self-serving charisma, he would not have been allowed too much vertical access above his current place in the conspiracy's informational food chain. Unless I am missing something, which is quite possible.
