It's interesting that we've managed (in one morning) to identify at least 2 bits of evidence that weren't on the original search inventories that did subsequently appear in the FBI inventory and attributed to the DPD searches: the Klein's ad "connecting" Oswald to c 2766 and a scrap of paper connecting Oswald to the New Orleans fight with anti-Castro members of DRE.
The 12/2/63 xfer of LHO possessions was the only one we're supposed to know about, but it actually transferred "evidence" that had already been "fixed" secretly by the Bureau. It's easy to tell what the FBI added. The honest DPD list of LHO possessions comprises the three pages of Stovall Exhibits A&B (stuff from Ruth Paine's) and the two pages from Turner Exhibit 1 (from 1026 N. Beckley). The 22 pages of CE 2003 contains the "improved" list of Oswald possessions, after the FBI was done inventing stuff. Wearing white evidence gloves at the National Archives, John Armstrong examined all the items of original evidence, including a certain Minox camera that had been filled with glue so it couldn't be opened and the serial number read. The items from the honest list had initials of the Dallas cops; the fraudulent items from the FBI additions didn't.
What was added by the FBI is most interesting... some of it clearly showing that Hoover was methodically fabricating and altering evidence that would otherwise expose the "Oswald project."
Drew Phipps Wrote:Again, though, doesn't this look more like a post-assassination attempt by law enforcement Plodders to affect the investigation? If your Plotters are intelligence agents, they sure wouldn't want their footprints near the investigation. Wouldn't their stuff appear to be discovered BEFORE LHO dies?
Good find, btw, on the alteration of actual WC testimony. Definitive proof that the WC was a con job.
I am not trying to suggest that there was not a group of conspirators acting in advance of the assassination to "plow the field" in advance of the event. I am suggesting that membership in one group doesn't imply membership in both groups.
I agree, but there are several places where the plotters and plodders intersect, and nowhere do they do that more dramatically than in the legend and the reality of "Lee Harvey Oswald." But there are a few other places....
