I thought it was due to a mid life crisis: his loss of his job, his divorce, and his relationship with Dave Perry.
Perry does not get noticed enough.
John Armstrong and Jack White told me that he was Gary's guru in his turnaround. And he used to accompany Gary to the Jim Marrs' classes where those two would heckle the witnesses that Jim would bring in to speak. According to Jack, Perry also helped Gary get his job at the Sixth Floor. Perry was good friends with the original switcher, Gus Russo, from way back. When he switched job locations to Dallas/Fort Worth, one of the first things Perry did was help Posner on his book. He then volunteered to man the counter at Larry Howard's Conspiracy Museum, where he became good buds with Farris Rookstool, who was the FBI's expert on the JFK case stationed in Dallas. The other person who Perry became good pals with was FBI asset Hugh Aynesworth.
At a vulnerable point in his life, Gary fell in with Perry. In human terms, I think this is what happened to Gary.
Interesting. I remember Jim Marrs telling the story about the two hecklers in his class, but not giving their names.
