Anyone who defends FBI at their word against Ralph Yates isn't credible in my opinion. I have asked Mr Scully many times in several posts to please explain his official position on FBI's coverage of Lee Harvey Oswald from those very same reports. Scully refuses to do it because he realizes that he will have to explain why he rejects FBI's word in one case and accepts it in another, even though there is zero difference between the two.
The FBI agent who did the polygraph told Dorothy Yates that the machine showed Ralph was telling the truth. Somehow Scully wants us to accept his putting himself before Dorothy Yates, who was there and had the trauma of her husband's commitment and death burned into her mind. He wants us to accept his suggestion that 42 years makes that memory invalid and therefore makes his specious arguments superior.
Scully makes no attempt to answer how a person who was experiencing so much stress over his story that he was committed to a mental institution for it managed to smoothly pass a lie detector test on the information therein?
Scully also makes no attempt to answer why FBI did not practice normal procedure to see if there was a credible reason why Yates passed the lie detector test. Surely the world class investigative agency had heard of doubles being used in covert operations before?
Douglass makes a mistake here by accepting FBI's file description of Yates' polygraph being "inconclusive". He should refer to the more pertinent evidence of Dorothy Yates saying the FBI agent told her Ralph passed the test.
Deep Politics researchers should be smart in their treatment of the evidence. The reason FBI didn't test Yates on picking up the check and nail him on it on the lie detector is because FBI knew the more it probed that story the more Yates would prove to be credible. It is clear from Hoover's reaction that he considered this urgent because he knew that a potentially serious breach to the official story existed in Yates. He went after it with the intention of destroying it which is proof of malfeasance on its own.

Quote:On January 2, 1964, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover sent a teletype marked "URGENT" to Dallas Special Agent in Charge J. Gordon Shanklin on Ralph Leon Yates. Hoover noted that a previous FBI investigation into whether Yates may have been at his company at the same time he said he picked up the Oswald-like hitchhiker provided insufficient evidence "to completely discredit Yates' story." Hoover therefore ordered the Dallas FBI office to "reinterview Yates with polygraph,"[773] the instrument more commonly known as a "lie detector."
On January 4 in another "URGENT" teletype, Shanklin reported back to Hoover on Yates's polygraph examination that day: "Results of test were inconclusive as Yates responded to neither relevant or control type questions."[774] Because his lie-detector test was inconclusive, Yates had still not been discredited. But there was more to come.
