I made it a point to talk with him at a legal class a few years back, I had also come with some JFK assassination bullett points. But he looked like he was going to faint when he learned why I wanted to speak with him. He said he'd contact me but never did and more recent efforts to contact him personally in writing have been unresponded to. I think someone got to him back then. Not a bribe but a threat. He's a great guy but I don't see him getting involved in any of the Dallas 63 affair, be it Tippit or JFK.
I certainly would love to be proven wrong.
Also agree that the arguments need to end.

Good for you, Dawn...but not surprised someone has read him the 'riot act'. They weren't going to let Dallas pursue a case in '63, and they won't 50 years later. The truth, they believe, must still be suppressed.
That was a mistake me putting that in there - that is not a public effort being undertaken but private.
In any case, Dallas County, though the cooperation of the current DA, has let off more innocent people than any other county in the country, which means that the criminals who actually committed those crimes are still running free. They do have a process for investigating such cold cases, and we are trying to determine if it will be possible to run the Tippit murder through that process, which will include only one or two county investigators who are also investigating other such crimes. It will also include the presentation of new evidence and witnesses to special grand jury convened just for that one case.
It is more likely that a special federal grand jury will be convened in DC but it will be limited.
Before there can be any talk of grand jury investigations, the other six items above it must be completed successfully and that is unlikely to happen anytime soon, though they certainly can be.
