Mexico City, the FBI's very first ever "identity theft" case (while LHO was in Russia), and the Sports Drome shooting range come immediately to mind.
Sure and, as you know, there are many other credible examples, more than the few you mention above. At what point do you start considering explanations other than "people running around pretending to be Oswald?"
Drew Phipps Wrote:All these activities occurred while LHO was alive. I get why a "shooter group" would choose LHO as a patsy. Why on earth would people attempting to shut down an Oswald investigation (whether or not they are the same people as a "shooter group") continue to forge new records about him after he's dead?
The facts seem to suggest that's exactly what happened, and the rest, I suppose, is speculation. My guess would be that, sadly, it is par for the course for American law enforcement agencies at many different levels to invent all kinds of evidence. On top of that, I'll bet Hoover cared more about the reputation of the Bureau than even Clyde Tolson's manly thighs. Everything about the "Oswald Project" had to go away, and for more reasons than just the FBI's reputation.
