Marina Oswald's Letter to the ARRB

[Jim DiEugenio]

I think this was pretty good in more than one way:

After the WC, the SS, the FBI and Ruth and PJM, she finally came around.

Her true thoughts about her husband and what he was up to way back when. This person has a great story to tell that may never be shared with those of us who would so like to hear it.

I agree and I also think that we will likely not know the whole story about her.

But they sure were worried about her.

First Ruth Paine, then the SS, then the FBI, then the WC, and finally PJM.

I remember reading this article when it was published, Jim. Hamburg's testimony to Dr. Hall was interesting as well. Do you think he helped Marina write that long "letter"?

[Jim DiEugenio]

If I recall, at that time Marina was close to the LaFontaines.

So I think they probably coached her on the letter.

But I must say, by about 1993 Marina spoke at an event CTKA did in Dallas. And it was off the cuff and I have to say it was pretty good.

She concluded with saying that if John Kennedy was alive today, he would be sick at what happened to America.

Funny you should mention Mrs. Paine. While Marina most likely did not fathom the machinations of her marrying Oswald, or what might have been actually expected of her once she was in the USA (she was so young then). Ruth Paine was so obviously a willing tool that was eager to be utilized. Plenty of Quakers live in my part of the world and I have never met one who's ethics would allow them to do the things she did. Then again, none of the Quakers I know have close ties to the types of people Ruth Paine did (does).

Both of these women could keep us spellbound if only they would be willing to tell the truth as they know it.
