JFK, 50 years later: Burying Oswald

[@williamblair9597]

If the reporters had not stepped up to make themselves available to serve pallbearers, Robert Oswald would have been out there dragging Lee's casket to his grave. I always felt sorry for Robert.

[@jbb3026ify]

Oswald never fired a shot that day.

[@jonherbert6184]

hes in heaven those swine that set him up hope they all burn in hell....... rip lee harvey oswald xxxxx

[@joejuarez9523]

He also shot a police officer that day. I see you have a "Blue" stripe on the flag. Hypocrisy.

[@freddiereagan6705]

Yeah

[@lisabradford8180]

i always wondered why he was buried so quickly.

[@HitchedBug]

No one wanted to house the body. The opposite happened to the Boston bomber. They couldn’t bury him because no one wanted his body in their grave yard

[@lisabradford8180]

@@HitchedBug thank you for clearing up the oswald mystery for me. i've been wondering about that for years lol. yes, i remember that about the boston bomber. he and other notorious killers had a hard time finding a cemetary that would accept their bodies.

[@randyharris3175]

They had little money couldnt even get somebody as pallbearers.

[@TheChoochooboy99]

I also think that’s why his concrete burial vault collapsed. It had to be done quickly and wasn’t given enough time to set correctly.

[@winggullseagull1230]

I always wondered what fueled the rumor of an empty casket & the corpse wasn't LHO.

[@johnwalker4329]

Oswald never got a chance to defend himself in court. Ruby made sure of that. The cover up was massive. Even the detective who escorted Oswald was involved. Why else would he wear that bright colored suit? Also it looked as if he made no attempt to pull Oswald away from the gun.

[@viccolantonio1691]

Who's ideal was it for Oswald to wear a dark sweater? When he was arrested he didnt wear sweater. It was easy for ruby to gun down oswald. Jerk detective wearing light colour suit escorting oswald with black sweater on

[@TheChoochooboy99]

My wife’s father built the original concrete vault that Lee Harvey Oswald was buried in. He was also present for the exhumation. Sadly he was murdered in the early 90’s so we never got to ask him about it. Would’ve loved to know his thoughts.

[@كوخعندالشاطيء]

They killed him before you ask him. What were you doing those years before his death enjoying life then after you remember you never ask.. Idiot.

Dare I ask how he died?

[@muckle8]

Was it because of this casket etc?

[@terrybardy2848]

Funerals are for the living. That's why they all helped for his wife, children, mother and brother. Poor Marina, in a different country and getting the tar beaten out of her. I'm glad she left him. As well as a mother in law who was crazy. The only sane person's were her brother in law Robert and her children. I don't like Lee Oswald. But anyone who could beat his wife up, I have No Sympathy for!

[@Corey-dy2cq]

But what do you really think about the whole thing? That's what matters news guy. Your HONEST opinion. Not what someone threatened to do to you like take away your retirement etc. for keeping your mouth shut about the real truth. What matters is what you HONESTLY think based upon what you and your peers were talking about behind the scenes and knew you weren't supposed to be talking about. This country will never move forward until someone like you starts talking and filling in pieces about what you heard so historians that have already done so much research can fill in more blanks. Those of you that were alive right then and there are the most important people to help solve this. If someone cuts your pension off or threatens your family go public with it. There a lot of rich people out there that would be more than happy to take care of you to get to the bottom of this.

[@drjimbomac]

I am a retired military chaplain. Dozens of funerals under my belt. I would have done this graveside for free AND provided ongoing care to them, regardless. And the guys from the press who helped? Kudos!!

[@dandavenport4565]

Very interesting that being at a profound moment of history can seem rather mundane an ordinary in the moment

[@janetbenning2645]

I'm sorry many may not like this but he was a human too. A clergy man could have should have been there.

[@1977seabiscuit]

Don't be sorry. That was a well said and very true statement you made. He was a flawed human being, and aren't we all? I feel sorry that he went down the path he did, and though he was culpable for the evil path he chose and the family he willfully left behind, he was still a human being in the end.

[@clivebaxter6354]

Innocent man

[@larrysproul9424]

We will never know the real truth behind LHO as there was a flawed investigation . Missing evidence, dead suspect , dead police officer , ect .

[@johnprince5000]

I read an article in the late 70s that the mortician was asked if they exhumed his casket would they be able to tell who he was,the mortician said that’s why he did an extra special on embalming him just in case he ever was exhumed, I read that in a Life magazine ???

[@glenperry2073]

Why was there 2 wallets from Oswald one at the tippet scene and one on him when he was caught at the theatre????

[@robertprestonsr2453]

Check out a KZbin video called "Interesting: Captain Westbrook, officer Tippit and Oswald's Double"... (Vince Palamara Channel) If you have any inclination to believe that the CIA was a part of all this.. then it is easy to imagine that there were TWO different Oswald's-- and thus two different wallets...But, realize if you mention any of this, then you are gonna be called a "conspiracy theorist nut". But also remember then that this Oswald may have been just what he claimed to have been: a Patsy...

[@larrysproul9424]

I really don't know how you explain the two wallets . Some people involved had to know much more but no one talked . Really who has two wallets complete with various ID in them ?

[@randypick1]

Knew someone who lived close to the cemetery and told me guards were their for a few days. Some threats were made to dig him up in anger.
