Lopez and Hardway say that there is very little question this should have been done. Especially considering the rules that were set down about American/Russian speakers in the embassy, and the alleged contact by "Oswald" with a very high up officer, Kostikov.
One of the main points in my work is that I believe that Goodpasture and Phillips in MC, and Angleton at HQ did all they could to conceal these questions and delay any inquiry about 1.) If it was Oswald, and 2.) Did he really meet with Kostikov.
The fact that there was no inquiry allowed the assumption that Oswald was there to continue, but it also allowed the alleged meeting with Kostikov to stay very low key and closely held.
If you ask me, Anne Goodpasture has flown under the radar for too long. She has been treated with kid gloves by too many people. In fact, if I recall, Bugliosi did not even mention her in his book, and Morley didn't ask her enough tough questions
One of the most incriminating parts of the Lopez Report is near the beginning. Lopez and Hardway are trying to find out who had the first pass on the photo and audio surveillance on the Cuban and Soviet embassies each day. Goodpasture said she didn't know and started throwing out names for them to find out.
Lo and behold, after wasting time and effort interviewing others, it turns out that the person who had immediate access was HER!
Now, if that does not make you a bit suspicious Vince and Jeff, then what the heck does?
In other words, why would she lie about something as simple as that?
Jim... I believe this has much more to do with Simpich's work than anything else... the CIA and State were doing "something" and covering each other's butts...
what they were doing had little to do with the Oswald & JFK, imo. Given what the CIA knew about Oswald, using his false middle name from the 201 file seems to me to support Bill's work.
The FBI (and many others) knew about the link to Kostikov from Hosty's I&NS source by Oct 18th, Jeff Woosley who had the Oct 16 letter from Scott declaring it WAS Kostikov for sure, no ifs.
If the CIA was trying to keep that info close to the vest, this memo doesn't help. IMO, the man representing himself as Oswald to the Russian embassy, Azcue and Duran is NOT the man Ruby shot.
I dont believe that Kostikov was involved.
I've mentioned this before... does the File photo of Kostikov in 1958 look like Oswald to you?
