Judyth Vary Baker: Living in Exile
#37
John, I will discuss this with Judyth, but my understanding is that her new book, ME & LEE, is the only one she considers to be authentic. I can tell you that I am discussing this on The Education Forum and Judyth has sent me a lot of corroborating evidence. I have recently interviewed her twice now on YouTube and my blogs, which you might want to consult for information that comes directly from her. Wim Dankbarr, by the way, has suggested that those who want more about Judyth should view Ed Haslam and Anna Lewis, a friend of hers from New Orleans with whom she and Lee double-dated, in a video at his web site, http://jfkmurdersolved.com/judyth.htm More later.

I'm not so much questioning whether she knew Ochsner, Oswald, Ferrie et al.but whether the bulk of her story checks out.

I'd appreciate feedback from those who are more well-studied on these issues than I...

After reading Judyth Vary Baker's book, Lee Harvey Oswald The True Story of the Accussed Assassin of President John F. Kennedy By His Lover, I cannot help but find her story, for the most part, unbelievable. There are many problems with her story, and I will mention some of them. There are some parts of her story that can be verified, and she may have had a relationship of some kind with Oswald, but her relationship with Oswald, as she describes in her book, is truly unbelievable.

A major problem with her book is that no other researcher ever mentioned her in their research. She claims to have been with Oswald throughout the summer of 1963. She tells the reader that she spent countless hours at Ferrie's apartment working on the “bio-weapon,” she claims to have met Jack Ruby, was at the party mentioned by Perry Russo, met Dr. Sherman and worked with Dr. Alton Oschner. If she spent so much time with Oswald, then, why is she not mentioned by any one of the hundreds, if not thousands of researchers that have dissected Oswald’s life? Even John Armstrong’s thousand-page tome, Harvey and Lee, does not provide any evidence that Oswald knew Baker. Jim Garrison’s investigation also did not mention her, and given the amount of time she claims to have spent with Oswald, someone would have had to seen her with him. She says that she resembled Oswald’s wife Marina, and this could be a possible explanation, but Oswald is never seen with any women.

Another problem with her story is her recall of dates, times that events occurred, begs the question, how did she remember all of this information? She claims that she took notes when she was living in New Orleans in the summer of 1963, however, I find it hard to accept that she had her notepad with her at every moment. Her book is two volumes, for that amount of narrative she would have had to be taking notes every moment she was with Oswald. A reader can reasonable expect that someone trying to recall events that occurred over 40 years ago would have difficulty in doing so, and should have just admitted it. Instead, she gives dates and time of day. This I have a hard time accepting.

Some aspects of her story can be verified, like the fact that she worked at Reilly’s Coffee Company, at the she was an ace science student. I was left wondering why such a brilliant student like her, with her credentials, was spending her summer working in administrative position, in a company that probably had links to the intelligence community, when she could have easily been working doing scientific research. More research needs to be done here. She claims to have taken the position as a “cover job” while doing research for Dr. Alton Oschner. Another possible explanation could have been that she wanted to be close to her husband who she had just married. New Orleans was a lot closer to her husband’s place of work off the coast of Louisiana than her home in southern Florida. I have yet to see any response from her husband, and none is provided in her book to corroborate her claim that she went to New Orleans to work for Oschner.

There is a possibility that she had some form of relationship with Oswald, they may have had a tryst of some sort, and they may have rode the same bus to work everyday as she claims they did, but the relationship as she tells it, of Oswald and her spending what seems to be most of their spare time together, is too incredible to accept. Perhaps what she is telling her readers is the classic fishermen’s story, the small one that got away that just keeps growing and growing. Perhaps they did have an affair, maybe they did meet on a few occasions, and like most attached people having affairs, they went to great lengths to conceal their meetings, and this could explain why Jim Garrison’s investigation, and all of the other researchers and government committees never discovered her. Unless she provides more credible evidence, maybe that is all there is to her story.
