@@peterfraser9070 I dont think Euins did indicate it was Mr O. In fact the bald spot suggests it wasnt Oswald. Originally Euins said he thought the man in the window was black. This changed to him being unsure as to whether the man was black or white. I think it is more interesting when he talls how the cop he was talking to received a call saying a man ran out the back of the TSBD....seemed to be ignored

[@peterfraser9070]

Well, there's tons of evidence that says it's quite unbelievable that it wasn't Oswald in that window. Anyone claiming it wasn't him has a lot of explaining to do to be taken seriously. Care to try to explain the evidence away? Euins saying the sun was shining on a "bald spot" in reality does not rule Oswald out at all. There's footage of Oswald with a bright light shining on his head for a moment and his hair was so thin you could see his skin clear as day. It is very easy to imagine Euins seeing the same thing with the sun shining on Oswald's head. Euins did not first say the man was black, by the way; that was a radio interviewer mis-quoting Euins. Euins clarified that he was not sure about the man's skin colour; he'd only seen him briefly and there was a glare on the window.

It's just depressing to have JFK, RFK, MLK all killed, our greatest and most benevolent leaders get killed but absolute scumbags like Kissinger live to be 100. Besides that neo nazi killed around the same time, it's only ever our best that get killed, the ones that threaten the status quo to fight for civil rights or oppose the wealthy. Lincolns death led to Andrew Johnson, top 3 worst presidents of all time who nuked civil rights for a century..and the Kennedy brothers deaths set us back decades, leading to absolute scumbags like bush and reagan and were still dealing with the problems they created today, which Clinton did also contribute to. I definitely don't think Oswald was the sole shooter, but it's so muddled with crazy crap, and sadly gets lumped in with legitimate insanity like moon landing hoaxers etc

[@KaladinVegapunk]

The most compelling info to me is that Oswald was a terrible shot, did badly on his firing test, and the crappy bolt action definitely can't be fired that quickly and accurately. A world class sniper brought in couldn't replicate the shot let alone a headshot on a moving target with a tree in the way. Those are facts that are really hard to get around if he did do it alone. Also Jack Ruby, after shooting Oswald, claimed to have info he wanted to come forward with but then.. immediately died of cancer before he could talk hahah.

@@Grady4bobcats_"Ineptitude or negligence to make sure there were no loose ends or paper trail?"_ If that were true they made a pretty bad job of it. The JFK assassination has many loose ends and plenty of paper trails. If Oswald was really a patsy and didn't shoot JFK, and someone else did, the organisation responsible would have engineered a much cleaner scenario. The FBI, the SS, and CIA have all the time in the world and they also have the capability to falsify evidence and control situations and people. Here is one way. Simply use an assassin from one of the eastern countries and blame the assassination on a the terrorist faction. It is as simple as that. The danger of CTs is that, not only do their insinuations act like a canker in society, but they also ruin the lives of many innocent people, like Ruth Paine and policeman Tippit's family. Also, while the CTs are focusing on their fantasies, they don't see the real conspiracies, like man made global warming and religion for example, or the Post Office conspiracy in the UK.

[@davidswanson5669]

Also the desire to want to help, to want to sound aware of their surroundings, and the notoriety of being at the scene of the event, could easily influence improper memories or statements. Even more subtle is the way that subconscious consensus, due to publicized information, can influence your perception. If those same witnesses had all been immediately isolated minutes after the shooting, and never told anything and never allowed to read or watch anything leading up to the interview, and then asked about everything they saw that day, there’d be no inherent focus on scrutinizing the actions and whereabouts of Oswald, other than the leading and incessant questions by the cops regarding Oswald. If cops too were to have no prior suspicions (so ideally an uninformed interrogator), then you’d actually see an interrogation cobble together a pure and unbiased timeline of events (flawed as they may still be, due to the frailties of memory).

Bc that literally could be anything. You had bodies slamming into the ground at terminal velocity and all the other sounds. A civilian can’t even tell the different between a firework and a gunshot and you’re telling me they can tell the different between a bomb going off and something out in the high stress and chaotic environment of 9/11?

[@TheGrumpyHobo]

My uncle was a homicide detective. Once, he told me about a case he worked that really frustrated him. Two guys had shot each other at a house party. One of them died while the other was badly injured, but lived. There was literally dozens of witnesses to it (they'd apparently got in quite a screaming match first, drawing everyone's attention). He interviewed all of them to find out what exactly happened (depending on how the confrontation went, the guy who lived could be brought to trial for murder or get a lower charge if it was in self defense). Everybody remembered it differently, even when he eliminated the testimony of the victim's friends and those that were too intoxicated to really be trustworthy. There were five people there that hadn't drank or smoked anything, didn't know the guys, and were close enough that they heard/saw the entire argument. They each had a different memory of how it happened. Not even a little different. Vastly different. When told about the other people's recollections, none of them changed their story. They were all confidant that it happened exactly how they remembered it. Human recollection is incredibly finicky and unreliable, especially in stressful moments. It's why so many prisoners were exonerated when DNA began being used. We;re just not designed to perfectly pay attention to every detail, we're lucky if we even remember the broad strokes. Even worse, when pressured to remember more, sometimes our brains will fabricate details that are completely wrong. We should all feel blessed to live in a society where we can pull out our phones and have perfect documentation of how things happen. We think police brutality is bad now, imagine what it used to be like when they had literally no oversight and everybody was taught to trust their word over anyone else's. Terrifying! Edit: Answering some questions. I sadly don't know how the case was concluded. I was told this back in the early 2000s, not sure exactly when (I was fairly young) and my uncle has since passed away so I can't ask him. It was in California though if anyone wants to try and track it down themselves. Also I didn't mean to come across as police being bad there at the end. I'm more of the opinion that there are a few really bad apples that ruin the bunch. The thing is, now we actually have methods to catch those bad apples, while before video cameras became prevalent it was always the accused criminals word against the police officers. Pretty much everyone would believe the cop before some random person, which they should since most criminals lie about their crimes (DUH). The idea of there being corrupt or even criminal police wasn't really a common thought until more recent times (among the majority of the population at least). I could be wrong about that, but when I talk with my parents and grandparents, the current anti police mentality of the younger generation is very foreign to them. P.S. i'm not a robot writing this, LOL. I know you're only supposed to use one space between sentences in academic papers, but I always found it easier to read when there was multiple. Sorry if it annoys the more academically inclined.

So they tell the someone that knows the employer hey I know someone that needs a job and can do the work. "Well, then tell him to come in and I'll interview him" and then that other someone gives a reference for him. People got things done by talking to one another back then.

[@wanderinghistorian]

I think the point LEMMINO is trying to make is that Oswald's hiring depended on a lot of coincidental happenstances and therefore was unlikely to have been planned by some clandestine shadow group.

[@Mike-qm6ng]

What this guy conveniently left out amongst other things was that Oswald was offered a job at Trans-Texas Airways as a baggage handler which paid about 30% more and was steady.. He used Paine's tel. # when he registered for work at the Texas Employment Commision. She is the one who received the call on 10-15-63 from Helen P. Cunningham his employment counselor. She never told Oswald.On 10-16-63 Cunningham called back. Paine told her Oswald already had a job. Why would Paine not inform Oswald of the higher paying steady job but instead hook him up with a much lower paying temp position at the TSBD? Paine's sister was a CIA employee, her father worked for USAID often used as a CIA front, her mother-in-law was a close friends of Mary Bancroft a spy and one-time girlfriend of Allen Dulles- director of the CIA fired by JFK. TSBD building was owned by D.H. Byrd (friend of LBJ), and one of the founders of Ling-Temco-Vought ( military contractor). Byrd had his workers remove the "sniper's window" as a souvenir. He had the 6th floor SW window removed. Not the SE window - Oswald's alleged position.

During the last hour at work, how many people have you seen pass by your work station (also, name them)? Now imagine trying to remember these details from a few days ago.

I was the closest witness (that didn't get hurt) to a major terror bombing some years ago. I was walking towards a building as a huge bomb went off. And for the life of me it looked as if the building almost jumped. I know it didn't happen, but that's what it looked like to me. I also didn't see anyone else right afterwards. No one around me. Even though several people were badly hurt maybe 10 meters in front and dead 25 meters. My point is, even though I was the witness myself, I know not everything I saw can be counted on. A lot of the points here are likely inconsistent for this very reason. I could also see wrong information being spread in front of me, which is why I agreed to interview on major international news networks.

[@pyruvatepersonage]

I think the most shocking thing about this whole event is the fact that neither the police department, nor the FBI, nor the Secret Service made ANY recordings of the interrogations of Oswald. I have never been one to believe in the conspiracies, but this oversight lends so much credibility to the theorists who can't seem to understand why the interrogation of a suspected presidential ASSASSIN was completely unrecorded.

[@barbosaluiz]

Recording police interrogations was not common in the 1960s. During that time, audio or video recording technology was not as advanced or readily available as it is today. The recording equipment used in the 1960s was often bulky, expensive, and not easily portable, making it impractical for use in many police stations or interrogation rooms.

[@heyitsmehere]

@@barbosaluiz exactly!

[@JohnSmith-fq3rg]

There are a million and one reasons to view the events as the murder perpetrated by the CIA that it was, the lack of interrogation tapes doesn't even begin to compare to the reversed video tape sent to news stations, the immediant washing of the car, the lackluster security allowing a man to shoot Oswald dead infront of armed police officers, Jack Ruby's ability to not be shot at all despite firing in the general direction of police officers, Jack Ruby's bizarre and unquestioned false motive for shooting Oswald, and a long history of CIA political assinations predating and following JFK, including even the attempt on Reagan.

[@harbingerofsalt]

Should've borrowed some equipment from one of the many reporters in the building with cameras that had recorders built in. Didn't even have a stenographer though. Guess the captain didn't think that far ahead, even though he claimed that he'd been asking for a recorder long before the assassination and, for some odd reason, was never given one

[@dann5480]

Wow you must be a conspiracy theorist! Why don't you believe the official account? People like you are the same ones who question the 911 terrorist attacks!

Something I absolutely love, that you also did an exceptional job with in the Jack the Ripper video, is your use of visuals to build maps and timelines to give context that's easy to follow.

[@esotericpince]

my dumbass is so bad at following timelines and stuff, its a genuine accessibility feature to disabled nerds and im so glad its becoming more popular. i love bobbybroccoli's videos for the same reason. ive seen some people call it the 'jon bois' style but idk if that refers more to the manipulation of google maps than anything

This video is an incredible piece of work, I’m sure it wasn’t his main motivation for creating it, but whatever he’s earned from it isn’t enough. It must have taken a considerable amount of time to do the research and translate all the information into clear commentary that aligned with all the graphics and animations. Seriously impressive

[@DavidBrocekArt]

I love the modern KZbin take on documentaries. No dramatic music, no weird nonsense interviews with "experts", no b-side camera shots. Just plain information.

[@ran160]

this is exactly why i prefer youtube documentaries over netflix documentaries of the same topics

[@WobblesandBean]

As documentaries used to be, before the 90s. It's a refreshing resurgence.

[@icgaming4508]

Honestly i hate modern documentaries they try to make into a show. Even the “experts” are acting. I remember seeing a documentary about a murder case and two “officers” saw the “suspect” and the officers were saying they were scared. But the tone in their voice did not reflect that. The acting was so bad that I was cringing. And of course everything shown is all just a studio set. And what I hate more is when they try to give the backstory of the officers/expert. And this backstory is usually irrelevant things such as their childhood or what they like to do as a hobby. I hate how they try to make it about the people on their not the case. Then I watched a much older documentary and generally the narrator gives facts about the case or if they talk to experts the normally talk about what was going on through during the case. They never did any acting. And if there was a backstory they mostly talked about their credentials and they usually kept it brief. There were was no backstory about their daily lives or their childhood. In addition the only acting they ever did was for re-enactments but that’s about it. It was usually very minimal.

[@NotOurRemedy]

No shitty ghost shifted re-enactors

[@Sivet555]

I think that my biggest take away from this is.. what a mess. No one agrees on anything, people don't know each others names or recognize people around themselves. Police was incredible unprofessional from day one not treating the crime scene in any proper way. Then when they had a suspect they interrogated him without any documentation. But vice versa our suspect was also acting like a dumbass, fleeing and fighting police arrest. Not to mention all the weird stuff about curtains. Absolute shitshow from everyone involved.

[@nam6128]

I about lost it laughing when I realized that the video I started watching about a previous presidents head exploding and the conditions surrounding it had devolved into 2 separate officers giving conflicting reports over the placement of a partially eaten chicken wing 😂

[@colinthemonk]

Exactly, no one is gonna know the truth with all these different reports. Only thing you can count on is CCTV footage lol

[@austinthesan-antonian3932]

The fact that I find the Ripper documentary to show everybody acting far more rationally and methodically, paying way more attention and that case was about a few members of a unquestionably hated at the time underclass and this one THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

[@jhonklan3794]

nah not really. Police were not unprofessional just imperfect. NO documentation was the norm. Tape recorders were still rare. Not a shitshow, a pretty open and shut case that people refuse to believe.

[@vilhjj]
