I agree that Whitworth and Hunter are quite credible. I also think that Liebeler somehow got some help in order to discredit Ryder.
I think the incident happened.
Jim, I just read this today. On pages 352-353 of your book, DESTINY BETRAYED, you describe an interview of an important and credible Warren Commission witness, Sylvia Odio, by Wesley Liebeler. After taking her testimony in Dallas, he invited her for dinner with an acquaintance of his, and then invited her up to his hotel room to look at some pictures. She later told Gaeton Fonzi and the Church Committee what happened next, "He showed me pictures, made advances, yes, but I told him he was crazy."
This tactic, as you state, was Liebeler's and the Warren Commission's unethical effort to discount Odio's testimony about the visit of three men, one of them claiming to be Leon Oswald. You point out that the Warren Commission ignored her story and its link to a conspiracy in the Kennedy assassination, and they focussed instead on the Oswald in Mexico City story as more appropriate for their aims in showing Oswald as a communist, and more in line with their expected conclusion.
Almost finished reading your book, Jim.
