McAdams has about s much credibility as Baker.
You can flip a coin between the two.
The idea that if you get one person to vouch for you, then somehow that gives you ballast, that simply does not wash. Because Slatzer did this with his phony Marilyn MOnroe story and Summers fell for it. Turned out that he gave someone three hundred bucks to back up his fairy tale.
Carol Hewett did a ton of work on Baker way back when CBS was going to do a 60 Minutes segment about her. After spending months trying to verify her story, she decided there was no use in doing so. The other night I asked her what was the turning point and she said there were three things.
1. She kept changing and augmenting her story.
2. She told Carol that one night she had dinner with Oswald, Ruby, Ferrie and Clay Shaw. (She apparently said this with a straight face.)
3. She said that her and Lee used to go horseback riding on the beach in New Orleans. (If you have ever been to New Orleans, you will know how far out that sounds.)
She also said that there was a big part of her life that she felt Judyth was trying to hide from her. This was when she graduated from high school and then went to UF for college. Carol said that there were so many gaps from there forward and that Baker was so mysterious about that, that she just lost any faith in her story and her at that point.
Carol has been a practicing lawyer for over thirty years and she just retired. She is one of the very best researchers we ever had in the JFK case. Her work on the Paines is unparalleled.
How people like Martin Shackleford and Fetzer bought into Baker just astounds me. Its actually kind of scary.
