Rumor and theory are starting to appear as fact. But we need better evidence; Penn Jones was an early and courageous journalist, but spent a fair amount of time on tangents which had their own problems.
As for the dictabelt - the House Committee was about to close its investigation and declare NO SHOT from the knoll; that tape was the prime thing that forced them to reassess and declare, for the historical record, multiple shooters. And anyone who has read Thomas' analysis knows it is a serious piece of evidence. But if it had not appeared - well, then, the conspiracy side would have a lot less public support, both immediately and historically. This theory is like the Zapruder faking theory - if they are going to do it why do it part way and still leave it as evidence that supports conspiracy? I know there are possible answers to this, but none really make sense to me.
Allen:
Before you go shooting the messinger wait til you hear more evidence. I have some of my own but have to leave early for court this morning.
Mary was NOT who she pretended to be. Period.
I will just add one bit here. Her son Jimmy told me in 97 when I met him, and many times after that, that as a teen his mother sent him
to New Orleans to "volunteer" for Jim Garrison. But not to help him. To copy files, spy on him, and anything else he could do to sabotage Garrison's effort, for Mary. This from her own son.
More later.
