Jackson

The first witness to testify was Edwin Lea McGehee, a barber from Jackson, Louisiana. He stated that on a day "in the last of August [or] the early part of September . . . along toward the evening," an "old . . . battered" car drove up to his barbershop and Lee Harvey Oswald came inside for a haircut. McGehee recalled, "There was a woman sitting on the front seat [of the car] . . . and in the back seat what I noticed was -- looked like a [baby] bassinet. . . it was an old car, it was battered, it was a dark colored car -- it might have been dark green -- but the make of it I just couldn't remember, it was an old car, real old. . . it resembled a Kaiser or a Frazer or an Old Nash."[SUP](2)[/SUP]
McGehee said he conversed with Oswald for approximately fifteen minutes about the prospect of a job at the nearby East Louisiana State Hospital. McGehee said he suggested that Oswald pay a visit to a friend of his, State Representative Reeves Morgan, who himself worked as a guard at the hospital. He also referred Oswald to his friend Henry Earl Palmer, the Registrar of Voters in nearby Clinton.[SUP](3)[/SUP]
McGehee specified that the encounter would have occurred in either late August or the first two weeks of September, adding that "I had my door open, the air-conditioning was off and it was rather cool." He noted that he and his customers frequently talked about the weather, and this was one of the reasons he could estimate the date of the incident.[SUP](4)[/SUP]
McGehee's statement is consistent with his more detailed account of June 17, 1967. One thing he stated in 1967 and would reaffirm in his 1978 interview with the HSCA is that Oswald kept staring at a picture on the wall, "a big picture of Martin Luther King at a Communist training school."[SUP](5)[/SUP]
The next witness was Reeves Morgan, who had been a member of the Louisiana
State Legislature in 1952-56 and 1960-64. He testified that Lee Oswald had visited him at his home outside Jackson for about twenty or twenty-five minutes one evening in either late August or early September 1963.[SUP](6)[/SUP]
Morgan said he'd informed Oswald that he couldn't help him get a job at the hospital ahead of his constituents, but advised him to take a Civil Service exam, and added that registering to vote nearby couldn't hurt. He testified that he remembered Oswald's name because he knew a fellow whose first name was Oswald, and he'd wondered if they might not be related.[SUP](7)[/SUP]
Morgan said he was estimating late August or early September for the meeting because of the temperature that day: it "wasn't cold weather and it wasn't hot weather, because when Oswald came to my house that evening I was burning the trash out of my fireplace and it didn't feel too bad. . . . It just felt good sitting there by it, and we both sat there and watched it burn."[SUP](8)[/SUP]
Morgan's story is consistent with his earlier statement of May 29, 1967, which also states that the visit occurred in the evening, "around dark."[SUP](9)[/SUP]
Though she was not called to testify, Morgan's daughter Mary, a student at Louisiana State University in 1967, also remembered Oswald's visit. She told the DA's office that "she did not pay much attention to the incident[,] as it was all very normal for lots of people to drop in her dad's home in order to get some help for employment." She said that "when Oswald was in the house talking with her dad, she happened to walk towards the screen door and went onto the porch and just casually noticed that there was a dark colored car parked under the tree in front of the house." It was dark outside and "she didn't really pay much attention to the car. . . . as best she can remember, it was an old car and the model was somewhere in the Fifties." She remembered "seeing a woman in the car. She did not pay much attention to the whole situation."[SUP](10)[/SUP]
Edwin Lea McGehee and Reeves Morgan's testimony placed Lee Harvey Oswald in Jackson, Louisiana, on a cool evening[SUP](11)[/SUP] in late August or early September, in an old car with a woman and, according to McGehee, a baby bassinet.[SUP](12)[/SUP]

Quote:Perhaps you are unaware that there are other witnesses besides Anna Lewis. Mac McCullough is on audiotape verifying my relationship with Lee, and the Charles Thomas family knew I had details nobody had about their father whose hand I shook when Lee got his passport in 24 hours. I also have a check stub from Standard, where lee and I were first hired together before we moved together to the bigger company, and nobody in all those years ever mentioned Lee working at Standard because his first check was cut by Reily. When these issues first came out it was 1999 and internet didn't have everything. they did not have information such as that Lee called the operation to kill JFK 'the big Event' as I said in 2003 on Histoiry channel and which later E. Howard Hunt called it as well in his famous taped confession, never on internet before what I said. I led researchers to Customs imnformation never before known which has now come out. Edward T. Haslam has found massive new evidence after i gave him leads, which got him to Valdez, as well as learning that Ochsner was doing experiments out with Heath at Jackson mental hospital, which had never been on Internet. I provide new information that has also led to explaining for the first time the true occurrences out at Clinton and Jackson which are brand new. Two weeks ago, I was able to verify with witnesses present aspects of Mary Morgan's testimony about my being out at her house when lee drive me there, which of course was never on the internet. I have opened the doors to the links between Ochsner and Clay Shaw--in 1999, there was no record of their association, until I provided it. There was no record of the importance of dates such as August 30-31, but this caused Haslam to look closer and find significant facts about Mary Sherman proving her connections to the project. We unearthed documents showing Garrison intended to arrest Ochsner never published on the Internet. Never on the Internet was any evidence of Lee Oswald being able to see i Led three Lives until I showed the dates that he did watch this program, which had not been published when I first spoke out and were unknown. The connections between Mary Sherman and anti-Castro cubans, actually working with them, was first revelaed by myself and only later it got on the internet. many facts now on the internet were not present in 1999 when all these details were first written down. In fact it is I,myself, who placed a number of things on the internet which now you can find there--but they originally came from me, and now this is being thrown back in my face because they are now there. The book was written in 1999 but I did not want it published until after my death. I tried to have others write a version, which I could co-author, so i would have more support, but that didn't work. In the end, I had to bring out the original manuscript, for which I have evidence of its existence through a reporter who wrote a newspaper article back in 1999 after observing it (a huge manuscript, not what publishers first saw). This manuscript has now become two books--Me & lee, and the new book David Ferrie-mafia Pilot. My family and friends were aware of my relationship with Lee way back at the end of 1980, when 35 people found out. I saved all the artifacts I did from the past, including all the paycheck stubs and the newspaper clippings and diary notes. I'm sorry you don't believe me, but my publisher spent over two years verifying details and saw many connecting materials. Above all, Edward T. Haslam's book, Dr. Mary's Monkey, is an independent book written before Haslam ever knew about me that also pins down what I was doing and Lee's relationship to me, as he figure out how Dr. Sherman was murdered, a quest that took him decades. His book was barely known, I was able to correct him where it went wrong, and he then found a vast amount of new evidence for what we had been doing. Hopefully, you will reconsider what you have said. Thank you.

Quote:Whose car was it and where did it come from?

Albert Doyle Wrote:I think DiEugenio has made a good case against Judyth Baker's credibility. I'd like to see her explain this Jackson gaffe. Where she is right now is she is sticking to her claim that she was the woman in the jalopy. She's aware of the problem because she's gone on the Amazon comments to her book claiming that she recently went to Jackson and recalled things from the time that were confirmed by Mary Morgan. But that doesn't answer the point. Her claim of being able to prove she was there through her identification of features existing at the time does not answer why Oswald switched from a black Cadillac with Ferrie and Shaw to an old jalopy with her? So JVB's answer is evasive in its form. What still hasn't been answered, and still needs to be answered, is the specific details of the who, what, why, and where of the car swap from the Cadillac to the jalopy. According to the known facts of Jackson there has to be a story behind that. So far JVB hasn't provided any.

Good job Jim. I think JVB has been busted inserting herself into a scene that the later facts proved to be impossible. This is a giant gaping hole in her credibility which begs what else did she fabricate? She's an assassination queen riding in an Oswald ghost car in the assassination parade.

Oooo, talk about busted...
