I'm sorry to say your going into chronic over kill mate! Crump could just have been a psychopath and Meyer could have been at the wrong place at the wrong time. Sometimes as Magda says "A cigar is just a cigar".
Sorry, Seamus, but Jim and Lisa would be the last two people to endorse the logical fallacy of argument from authority.
And to continue your Deep Politics 101 and Logic 101 education: Even if they or anyone else could disprove convincingly Janney's hypothesis, it would tell us nothing about the nature of Mary Pinchot Meyer's demise other than it likely did not happen the way Janney describes.
The simplest explanation of Meyer's death that includes an appreciation of context: the murder was a deep political act.
This is what I have always thought as well. Now I am more on the fence after reading Lisa's review of Janney's book. I would like to hear more from you and Peter on this as I know too little about this matter to have any conclusion except that based on a hunch. I've heard the JKF/Mary Meyer LSD stories for decades and actually thought that was rather cool, if it occurred. And all the diary stuff lends itself to the notion of the murder being a "deep political act". Lisa's review pulled me one way now I am back in the middle. Open.
