Ochsner Medical Records: Fill & Download for Free

When I was working at Ochsner Medical Center, in New Orleans, in the 80s, I witnessed the termination of an incompetent and reckless nurse. She had been caught by the head nurse before administering the wrong medication to a patient. Had this intervention not occured, in all probability, the patient would have been put in life threatening circumstances. Another time, when she absentmindedly failed to put the brake on the tires of a wheelchair, she dropped an elderly patient, breaking her hip. The final straw was the shift when she falsified her chart, stating she performed duties (taking vitals, checking input and output, and giving prescribed medications on schedule) but was witnessed by Sharon Oliver, R.N., Head Nurse, 8th Floor, sleeping in the nurses’ lounge when these things, according to her records, were done. It is for these reasons, Nurse Oliver, R.N. is recommending her immediate termination be confirmed with personnel. I was sitting at the unit station when all hell broke loose and the nurse was given her walking papers. She was highly indignant, showed not a smidge of remorse, and swore she’d sic her union rep on the powers that be. Only trouble there was no nurse’s union! Last I heard, she could only get a job in an old folk’s home because of past employers’ bad references.

Had Lee Harvey Oswald survived and gone to court, I believe his trial would have given us a very different view of the facts surrounding the assassination of Pres. John F. Kennedy. With the entire machinery of the U.S. Government invested in prosecuting Oswald, and the high temper of the time, winning his acquittal likely would have been quite difficult. But Attorney Mark Lane showed very early on that a competent attorney with full powers of discovery could have succeeded. And the facts that have come out ever since raise a real question as to whether a judge or grand jury would even have allowed Oswald's prosecution to go to trial. That's because, thanks to the determined efforts of certain dogged researchers, and the advent of the Internet, which allows investigators far more easily to compare research notes, the evidence that has surfaced in the 53 years since the assassination points more and more to Oswald’s innocence and the existence of a wider conspiracy reaching deep into the government, designed to install Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson in the presidency.Whether Oswald's testimony would have incited Americans to go to war -- well, it's amusing to see other comments pooh-poohing the idea, but that was, after all, the argument that Kennedy's successor, Lyndon B. Johnson, repeatedly made. Claiming the incident could lead to World War III, LBJ appealed so strongly to Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren's sense of patriotism that it reportedly brought Warren to tears, causing him to swallow his misgivings and to lead what became the Warren Commission. More about that in a moment, because it's a key to understanding the cruel hoax played on history and the American people. Sadly, if the true facts of the case were to incite the American people to war, it would likely be to a civil war, which may explain why remaining evidence in the case--so much has been destroyed--remains under seal at the National Archives, ostensibly due to reasons of national security.Let's first make a cursory examination of the case against Oswald. Lee Oswald had no apparent motive for killing Kennedy. It made no sense that he should first try to assassinate someone on the political right (Gen. Edwin Walker) and then on the political left (Pres. John F. Kennedy). If Oswald was the mean-spirited doctrinaire Marxist the FBI made him out to be, and with the whole world hanging on his every word, then why didn't he crow over the assassination? Instead, he assured his wife, brother, the head of the Dallas Bar Association, and the police of his innocence, and proclaimed to the world he was just a patsy.It does appear that Oswald had some prior knowledge of the plot. But then, so did Elizabeth Cole, Christian David, Richard Case Nagell, Gary Underwood, Rose Cheramie, Gerry Patrick Hemming, Joseph Milteer, Felipe Vidal Santiago, PFC Eugene B. Dinkin, Wayne January, and Anton Erdinger, among others. Not to mention Vice President Johnson, already ducking low in his car seat just after the motorcade turned onto Elm Street, a printed copy of the Oath of Office in his pocket.More sad than amusing is how so many of the commenters here still cling to the long-discredited Warren Report. At the risk of sounding patronizing, it's as though they simply accepted the Report as holy writ handed down from on high, and they're still trying to defend its orthodoxy.As Pennsylvania Senator Richard Schweiker, the co-chairman of the Church Committee report titled “The Investigation of the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy: Performance of the Intelligence Agencies,” summarized his views of the Warren Commission report many years ago:“I think that the report, to those who have studied it closely, has collapsed like a house of cards, and I think the people who read it in the long-run future will see that. I frankly believe that we have shown that the [investigation of the] John F. Kennedy assassination was snuffed out before it even began, and that the fatal mistake the Warren Commission made was not to use its own investigators, but instead to rely on the CIA and FBI personnel, which played directly into the hands of senior intelligence officials who directed the cover-up.”Schweiker, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, stated that senior U.S. intelligence officials directed a cover-up in the assassination. Let that sink in for a moment. What were they hiding -- foreign intelligence involvement or their own agencies' involvement? Schweiker also famously said that the handprint of intelligence was all over Oswald's record.The FBI had tracked Oswald’s movements since at least 1960, when FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover warned the State Department that someone seemed to be impersonating Oswald, then in the Soviet Union aa part of a CIA phony defector program. A gung-ho Marine who enlisted at age 17, Oswald was obsessed with the idea of becoming a double agent. He worked as a radar operator at Atsugi Naval Air Station in Japan, which had responsibility for CIA’s U-2 overflights of the Soviet Union — and, we now know, the People’s Republic of China. The government trained him in Russian and gave him an honorable discharge. Just three days later he departed for St. Petersburg. The hope was that the KGB would recruit Oswald to spy for it in the United States. When the KGB didn’t take the bait, Oswald returned to the United States, at State Department expense, and walked into a job at a graphic arts company that processed highly classified photography from Cuban overflights for the USG. The FBI paid him $200/month to pretend to be a Communist sympathizer in order to help it identify potentially pro-Castro Cubans, reporting to FBI Agent Guy Bannister. Oswald also became part of a plot led by American Cancer Society President Dr. Alton Ochsner to develop a cancer virus for the USG’s use in assassinating Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. Oswald’s former Civil Air Patrol instructor David Ferrie and several others were involved in the plot, as was Judyth Vary Baker, a brilliant young cancer researcher recruited by Ochsner straight out of high school.Baker worked out of Ferrie’s kitchen, where her job was to use lab rats to create the most virulent cancer virus possible. An anti-Castro agent was supposed to inject Castro with the virus, designed to work even more effectively once Castro’s immune system was damaged by x-rays. If Oswald traveled to Mexico City in October 1963 at all, it appears to have been for the purpose of handing off the virus to a Cuban contact, a contact who never showed. Ochsner removed Baker from the program and cut short her young career when she objected in writing to his use of Angola State Penitentiary inmates as guinea pigs in testing the virus. After Baker and Oswald became lovers, Oswald confided to Baker that he was trying to foil an assassination plot against Kennedy.Oswald stated repeatedly that he admired Kennedy and his family. He may have been the FBI informant, named "Lee," who Secret Service Agent Abraham Bouldin said had tipped off the government to the plot against Kennedy's life in Chicago two weeks before Dallas. A note from “A. Hidell,” an Oswald alias, reportedly had warned Dallas Police Department of a plot against the president but disappeared after the FBI conducted a post-assassination sweep of Dallas PD offices. The “threat note” said to have been received from Oswald by FBI Agent James Hosty likely warned of a threat against the president. If it had threatened the FBI to stay away from Oswald’s wife, as Hosty claimed, then why is it that Hosty destroyed the note on his supervisor’s orders? He likely did so because the note tended to exonerate Oswald at a time when FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover was determined to portray Oswald as the lone gunman.Not only did Oswald have no motive, but he didn’t have the means. No reliable evidence connected him to the Mannlicher-Carcano, including the doctored backyard photos and the shipment to a post office box belonging to one "A. Hidell," on the basis of a money order that was never even deposited. Never deposited! A Dallas PD paraffin test indicated he hadn't fired a rifle that day. The 14-year old witness in the Edwin Walker shooting saw two men fleeing, and neither looked like Oswald. The caliber of the bullet found in Walker’s wall did not match that from the Mannlicher-Carcano. The pistol he allegedly used to kill Officer Tippett couldn’t even fire due to a bent firing pin. Some witnesses to Tippett’s slaying saw two men.Oswald also didn’t have the opportunity. Reliable eyewitness testimony showed he wasn't on the Sixth Floor of the Texas School Book Depository at the time of the assassination. Dallas PD Officer Marrion Baker found him drinking a Coke in the second floor lunchroom just 90 seconds after the shooting. Oswald’s prints were never found on the gun until after two FBI agents planted Oswald’s palm print on it during a visit to his cadaver in the funeral home.Johnson handpicked the Warren Commission in order to stave off a Congressional investigation and reassure the American people that no conspiracy was afoot, despite the testimony of witnesses who saw multiple gunmen. The Commission relied on the FBI, which cherrypicked the evidence and ignored, manipulated, discarded or otherwise suppressed anything that didn't fit the desired narrative of Oswald as the lone gunman. It was a Procrustean Bed, where the truth is stretched or cut away as much as editorial license requires in order to make the pieces of the government’s narrative fit, out of "patriotic duty." After all, what's a few white lies if they help to prevent World War III, as LBJ intimated? Like the FBI investigation, its true purpose was to deflect suspicion from the one man with the greatest means, motive and opprtunity to kill the president, which was Lyndon B. Johnson.Johnson and the Kennedy Brothers hated each other. Johnson had blackmailed his way onto Kennedy’s ticket in 1960, using a dossier on Kennedy provided him by his close friend and next-door neighbor of 17 years, J. Edgar Hoover. Kennedy had to retract his offer of the vice presidency to Missouri Senator Stuart Symington. With the help of his campaign manager John Connally, Johnson had cheated his way into the Senate by stuffing the ballot box in Precinct 13. He was profoundly corrupt, taking a slice of every major government defense contract that came before him, and, as Senate Majority Leader, he ensured that all such contracts would continue to move through him by taking the unprecedented step of having himself appointed Chairman of a Senate Armed Services subcommittee. With the help of his personal hitman Malcolm Wallace, Johnson plotted numerous political murders in order to cover up his corruption. But all was coming to an end for Johnson in November 1963. Kennedy was just beginning to campaign for re-election. He planned to replace Johnson in 1964 with Terry Sanford of North Carolina. Life Magazine, fed dirt on Johnson by Robert Kennedy’s Justice Department, was about to publish an exposé of Johnson’s ties to the Bobby Baker scandal in its December 1 edition, At the time of the assassination, Johnson was just one step away from political humiliation and criminal charges.Anti-Soviet military hawks seeking war in Vietnam, Texas oil tycoons fearful of losing the oil depletion allowance, CIA officials fired by Kennedy over the Bay of Pigs debacle, mafiosi angered by Kennedy’s war on crime, Secret Service agents scandalized by Kennedy’s private behavior, jealous husbands cuckolded by Kennedy, etc. — Johnson knew Kennedy’s many enemies in and outside the government and presented himself as their champion.Working with the Mafia, and with the complicity of certain members of the military and the Secret Service, elements of CIA murdered Kennedy. Hoover then led the FBI in framing Oswald for the crime. The Warren Commission relied wholly on the FBI investigation for its own conclusions. The CIA strategy designed to defend the Warren Report, and laid out in Document 1035-960, seeks to discredit skeptics as “conspiracy theorists.” Thanks to the penetration of our media by the CIA, via Operation Mockingbird, and the CIA's penetration and discrediting of the Jim Garrison investigation, this strategy succeeded to such a degree the Kennedy Assassination is now regarded as the Third Rail of American journalism.Attorney General Robert Kennedy and First Lady Jackie Kennedy were the first conspiracy theorists. Bobby immediately (and correctly) suspected the involvement in his brother’s murder of Operation Mongoose members involved in anti-Castro plotting. Jackie immediately suspected LBJ and Secret Service collusion because she had witnessed how Secret Service Agent William Greer had stopped the limo until the fatal shot and only then sped away. French Intelligence concluded LBJ was behind the murder, as did the Kremlin. Several members of the Warren Commission itself made private statements disavowing its conclusions. And Lyndon Johnson was recorded at least twice as saying he suspected a conspiracy. Those who dismiss the evidence of conspiracy in JFK’s assassination seem to ignore the fact that LBJ himself was a tinfoil hat type, and that the very people in the best position to know all believed in the existence of a conspiracy.Oswald could not have been fairly convicted. He had no motive, means or opportunity. He was denied minimum standards of due process. He had asked a dozen times to be represented by Attorney John Abt of New York. He did tell Dallas Bar Association President H. Louis Nichols that he might accept his offer to find a different attorney, but he first wanted to see if Abt would take his case. He was never allowed to contact him. His police line-up was a farce. The single prison phone call to which he was entitled--he tried to call a retired Army intelligence officer--was deliberately prevented by the government from being connected. His interrogations went unrecorded. Lots of red flags there.But Oswald's murder by Jack Ruby was surely our first strong indication of conspiracy. Of course, what looked like a gangland hit to silence a potentially problematic witness was quickly explained away as the misguided but well-meaning act of another Lone Nut. Never mind the dozen different witnesses who said Oswald knew Ruby. They must have "been mistaken," including the dancer who said Ruby had introduced Oswald to her as “my friend Lee, from the CIA.”Silvia Odio claimed she'd met Oswald with two anti-Castro Cubans some weeks before, but she, too, must have "been mistaken," even though she never sought publicity, her sister confirmed the visit, and she'd written to her father of the meeting shortly afterward.Strange how the government never mentioned that Ruby was a gun runner to Cuba, helped spring Mob boss Santos Trafficante from a Cuban prison, and was once hired to work on the staff of then-Congressman Richard Nixon, as a favor to -- get this --then-Senator Lyndon Johnson! LBJ had wanted to exempt "Jacob Rubenstein" from having to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Americans know all about the latest Kardashian drama, but I guess the U.S. media just didn't find that little tidbit newsworthy enough to report.Ruby didn't receive a hero's treatment or a presidential pardon. Instead, he was sentenced to death. That's when he began to hint broadly in prison that Johnson was behind the assassination. Said he to reporters:“Everything pertaining to what’s happening has never come to the surface. The world will never know the true facts, of what occurred, my motives. The people had... that had so much to gain and had such an ulterior motive for putting me in the position I’m in, will never let the true facts come above board to the world.”Asked by a reporter, “Are these people in very high positions, Jack?” Ruby replied, “Yes.”Ruby didn't stop there. He also told a gathering of reporters: "Gentlemen, I want to tell the truth, but I cannot tell it here. If you want a fair shake out of me, you have to take me to Washington." When a reporter asked him to expand on that statement, Ruby replied: “When I mentioned about Adlai Stevenson, if he was vice president – there would never have been an assassination of our beloved President Kennedy.” When the reporter persisted, Ruby responded: “Well, the answer is the man in office now.”Of course, the “man in office now,” was then Lyndon B. Johnson.After a jail cell injection, Ruby publicly charged that the USG had just given him cancer. People said Ruby was just paranoid, but, sure enough, within just a few weeks he was dead from a previously-undiagnosed and particularly virulent form of cancer.The case against George H.W. Bush is stronger than the case against Lee Oswald. Poppy Bush was in Dallas Nov. 22, 1963. He had been recruited to CIA directly out of Yale and been heavily involved in the logistical planning for the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba. Bush was CIA liaison to the Cuban-American community, and many of the hitmen recruited for Dealey Plaza were Cuban-Americans with a grudge against JFK. Dallas PD temporarily detained Bush and mafioso James Braden as persons of interest after they were identified as "suspicious" at the Dal-Tex Building immediately after the assassination. Bush can be seen in a photo of the scene just after the assassination. The second floor of the Dal-Tex Building, where a CIA front company was renting offices, was a very likely sniper site. Its low trajectory and field of vision were almost ideal. Bush has given conflicting accounts of his actions and whereabouts that day. Despite the solemnity of the event, he couldn't help a wide, momentary grin during his eulogy for Pres. Gerald Ford as he recounted how the crime committed in Dallas was by a “lone, deranged gunman." Trained interrogators would recognize Bush's grin as a "micro-expression" betraying his true inner feelings. Bush also once cryptically remarked “if the American people knew what we’d done, they’d chase us down the street and lynch us.” Maybe it's time Americans take him at his word.We now know the Zapruder Film was altered, and we even know how, by whom, where, and when. A government-led conspiracy is implicit in the altering of the film. Consequently, this so-called "time-clock" of the assassination isn't reliable. First of all, Zapruder insisted he filmed the motorcade at 24 frames per second. The FBI claims it was filmed at only 18 frames per second, giving the government the opportunity to excise a quarter of the frames from the beginning. The fact that police emergency lights in the film flash erratically, instead of at a set periodicity, proves frames were excised. Superhuman movements, magically disappearing and reappearing motorcycle escorts, a completely immobile crowd of spectators in the foreground, splice marks, and other anomalies also prove the film was altered. Eyewitness testimony -- including of those who claim to have seen a different, longer version -- would suggest that what was excised were the overly wide limo turn, LBJ ducking low in his car, the limo's pause behind the Stemmons Freeway sign, Agent Greer's stopping of the limo in the kill zone demarcated by two yellow hash marks painted on the curb, and the nature of the mortal head shot. Why would the government need to alter the film at all, except to mask evidence of a conspiracy?In fact, the film gives additional proof of conspiracy, because it shows the mortal shot as driving JFK back and to the left. Not just that, but looking carefully at the margins of the film, we find that beginning at Frame 232, we can actually see the reflection of a sniper firing on the motorcade from atop the County Records Building. The shot that ricocheted off the pavement and struck James Tague in the cheek left a bullet mark aligning, not with the TBSD, but with the County Records Building, which might explain why the mark was quickly cemented over. With millions of pot holes still lining our roads, why the rush to re-pave this artifact of the assassination except to destroy evidence, and why would the government destroy evidence unless it was to hide a conspiracy?The monumental dereliction of the Secret Service and its immediate destruction of evidence certainly smacked of foreknowledge and conspiracy. Set aside how the night before many of the agents were out carousing at a strip bar until nearly daylight and a dozen other lapses. We've now seen how agents were waved off of the bumper of the presidential limo just before the last turn onto Elm Street. Even in the altered version of the Zapruder Film, we've seen how Agent Greer slowed down the limo. We have the photographic and expert eyewitness testimony about the bullet hole in the limo's windshield, from the front, despite the efforts of the Secret Service to destroy the evidence immediately by sending the car to Ford Motor Company for a complete makeover. What about the Secret Service's removal of the president’s body, by force, to Washington, preventing Texas authorities from conducting the investigation, as required by Texas law?And even the Warren Report noted the presence, in the vicinity of the Grassy Knoll and TBSD, of mysterious men flashing Secret Service credentials, even though the Secret Service said it had no other agents in the area. Isn't that an indication of a conspiracy? One of LBJ's personal attorneys, Barr McClellan, relates in his book, “Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed JFK,” how he became convinced that the head of his law firm, Edward Clark, was a key organizer of the conspiracy to kill Kennedy. Clark's firm represented LBJ's business interests. McClellan claims a law partner, Martin Harris, was told by Clark that during a visit to Johnson Ranch, LBJ had given him instructions and an envelope containing the full outline of Kennedy’s personal security Secret Service policy manual. Convicted killer James Files, who eventually confessed to being a Grassy Knoll gunman, claims he witnessed Jack Ruby pass Secret Service credentials to mafia gunman Johnny Roselli at a Dallas pancake house the day before the assassination. Later called to testify about the assassination to the Congress, Roselli disappeared, his dismembered body later recovered from a metal drum floating in Florida's Inland Waterway.The forensics evidence indicates JFK was killed by a shot from the front, possibly the South Grassy Knoll, not from the direction of Oswald and the Texas School Book Depository Building. We've all heard of the Magic Bullet Theory and seen computer simulations and other demonstrations purporting to prove it, but they're sleight of hand to hide the fact that the trajectories never really align. A key exhibit is the photo of Warren Commission staffer Arlen Specter supposedly demonstrating with a stick how the shot lined up, but a closer look at the suit jacket of the agent portraying Kennedy will show the stick several inches away from the circled bullet wound. The jacketed bullet supposedly passed through bone and tissue yet emerged virtually "pristine." More bullet fragments were removed from Gov. Connally's wrist alone than was missing from the Magic Bullet. And, unlike that Bullet, the shot that blew out JFK's brains was frangible.Then, of course, there's the medical evidence. A small wound in JFK's throat, identified by doctors at Parkland Hospital as having come from the front, was used by them to start a small incision for a tracheotomy. But by the time the body was examined and photographed for autopsy, the wound had taken the ragged appearance of an exit wound. The shot in JFK's back, earlier probed by two FBI agents who found it was shallow, instead was presented by CDR Hume at the Bethesda Navy Hospital autopsy as the entry wound for the "exit" wound in the throat, even though he never probed it. The angle didn't line up with the Sixth Floor of the TBSD, so artists weren't allowed to see the body; they were TOLD what to depict in their inaccurate autopsy drawings, just as Commission staff misrepresented the location of the wounds in order to expound the Magic Bullet theory. The small entry hole near JFK's hairline was sutured before the autopsy. The large hole in the back of JFK's head, attested to by everyone/everyone at Parkland, simply disappeared. Hume burned his autopsy records.Why were multiple sets of x-rays taken, except to help CDR Hume locate, and remove, bullet evidence? A peer-reviewed article by Dr. David Mantik explained how stereoscopic examination of the cranial x-rays, using optical density measurements, showed that an artifact was used to give the appearance that the back of the cranium was still intact. Mantik's study also revealed that a 6.5 mm bullet fragment that had mysteriously appeared in JFK's skull x-rays -- apparently to implicate Oswald and "his" Mannlicher-Carcano -- was a forgery. It had been created by means of using photographic double exposure to superimpose the fake bullet onto Kennedy's x-ray, probably by Dr. John Ebersole, the Assistant Chief Radiologist at Bethesda. Many of the x-rays that were taken are now missing. The duty log page concerning the taking of the x-rays was burned, on the order of Ebersole.Dr. Mantik's results were replicated by other researchers. This is science, not conjecture. Isn't tampering with evidence an indication of possible conspiracy? Oswald couldn’t have done it. Oswald was dead.At Bethesda Naval Hospital, one of those with his own film of the autopsy was LCDR William Bruce Pitzer. Just as he was retiring from the Navy to accept a job offer with CBS Television, he was found dead in the hospital by a gunshot wound. A pistol lay by his side. Suicide was the ruling. His family didn’t believe it but was pressured by the Office of Naval Intelligence to say nothing. Years later, a conscience-stricken Lt. Col. Daniel Marvin informed Pitzer's widow how, as a Green Beret those many years before, he’d turned down a pitch by CIA to assassinate her husband before he could “pass secrets to the enemy.”Who was this enemy? The American people, apparently. Why else is it that 53 years after the assassination, so much of the evidence in the JFK assassination remains under seal at the National Archives for reasons of national security? Is the USG really still protecting its “sources and methods,” or does it simply not want the American people to know the truth behind the assassination?It’s a matter of record that various people impersonated Oswald in Mexico City. How is the impersonation of Oswald in Mexico City proof of anything if not a conspiracy? It could only have been organized by people with knowledge of the CIA’s surveillance of the Soviet and Cuban diplomatic compounds — in other words: the Soviet regime, the Cuban regime, the Mexican government, or the U.S. government. The CIA station in Mexico City transmitted to the FBI the evidence tending to incriminate Oswald and destroyed its recordings of the impersonator shortly afterward, when, in fact, it had been advised by CIA headquarters on October 10 that the impersonator didn't match Oswald's description. That destruction of evidence and transmission of false evidence wasn't by the Soviets, Cubans or Mexicans. It could only have been achieved inside the CIA station in Mexico City. How is it that the USG has no photos of Oswald entering the Soviet and Cuban embassies when CIA had both under 24/7 camera coverage?The phone system in Washington, DC, went down at virtually the exact time as the assassination. Coincidence? We're told it was system overload. Was it just coincidence that most of the Cabinet was on the other side of the world and that a brigade of the 82nd Airborne was en route to the United States? Was it coincidence that rightwing arch-reactionary and Kennedy-hater Air Force Lieutenant General Curtis LeMay just happened to be away on a hunting trip to Canada and that someone called a news service that very morning to ask about a report his plane had crashed? Once the news of the successful assassination was relayed to him, LeMay rushed back to Washington in time to smoke a (celebratory?) cigar while watching the president's autopsy. An awful lot of coincidences, but it’s hard to imagine it was just coincidence that the nuclear codes were absent from all B-52 crews patrolling our skies that day. Oswald couldn't have accomplished that. Nor could the Mafia, the Cubans, the Soviets or anyone other than elements very high within the U.S. Government.The Sunday London Times hired an actuary to test the likelihood that 17 material witnesses had died of unnatural causes in the first three years following the assassination. It concluded the odds against it at 100,000 trillion to one. And that was before the congressional investigation brought a new wave of such deaths, such as Roselli's and several others. Coincidence!One needn't give full credence to the views of LBJ's mistress of over 20 years, or to Billie Sol Estes' sworn affidavit, or to E. Howard Hunt's confession, or to Marita Lorenz' open court testimony, or to LBJ's personal attorney's allegations, or to the identification of Malcolm Wallace’s fingerprint at the TBSD snipers nest, or to James Files’ confession, to conclude that LBJ was behind, or in the least acquiesced to, the assassination. So much circumstantial evidence suggests it, such as the ducking in his car and carrying the Oath of Office. The photo of the century might be the one they never show you, where immediately after taking the oath next to Kennedy's shocked widow, Johnson shared a wink and smile with his protégé and alleged criminal accomplice Texas Cong. Albert Thomas.Although he supposedly feared a Cuban or Soviet conspiracy, it's telling that Johnson didn't raise the military alert level. Neither did the Joint Chiefs, although the U.S. Commander in the Pacific did, on his own authority. It's also telling that the Joint Chiefs had completely reversed Kennedy's Vietnam policy by the end of the very first business day after his assassination.Only a high-level USG conspiracy can explain the cover-up of Oswald's intelligence record, the multiple gunmen, the surreptitious pre-autopsy surgery, the doctoring of the Zapruder Film, the falsification of the autopsy record, the withholding of the nuclear codes, etc. The Cubans couldn't have done it, nor the Soviets, nor the Mob. Only the USG, but then, its highest offices were now in the hands of the conspirators. That conspiracy continues, perpetuated by bureaucratic inertia, institutional self-protection, and enabled by the compartmentalization of information, but also by the fact that some of the conspirators went on to exercise great power and influence, which persist to this day.Still don’t believe me? Then ponder this for a moment. Murder and treason have no statute of limitations, Castro is dead, the USSR collapsed 27 years ago, diplomatic relations with Cuba are fully normalized, and yet following up on the murder of the POTUS by an alleged Castro sympathizer isn't even on the bilateral agenda. The murder of a POTUS by a potential Cuban agent, no diplomatic relations with Havana all these years, and yet when the USG finally gets its first chance to follow up on investigative leads in the killing of the POTUS, it doesn't bother? Anyone who's ever worked for the USG should find that telling, very telling indeed.Oswald had no motive for killing Kennedy, but Johnson certainly did, and so did the Military-Industrial Complex of which Pres. Dwight Eisenhower had warned in his Farewell Address. Eisenhower was not a paranoid. Indeed, history is already proving that on Nov. 22, 1963, the MIC became what today is termed the “Deep State.” The Deep State has secretly ruled Amerika ever since. But that secret is finally coming out. I invite all patriotic Americans to research my assertions, correct any inaccuracies, but, most of all, take a fresh look at the new evidence and draw your own conclusions.

Lee Oswald had no apparent motive for killing Kennedy. It made no sense that he should first try to assassinate someone on the political right (Gen. Edwin Walker) and then on the political left (Pres. John F. Kennedy). It made no sense that if he was the mean-spirited doctrinaire Marxist the FBI made him out to be, and with the whole world hanging on his every word, instead of proudly owning the assassination, he protested that he was a patsy. But thanks to the determined efforts of certain dogged researchers, and the advent of the Internet, which allows investigators to compare research, the evidence that has surfaced in the 53 years since the assassination points more and more to Oswald’s innocence and the existence of a wider conspiracy reaching deep into the government, designed to install Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson in the presidency.It does appear that Oswald had some prior knowledge of the plot. But then, so did Elizabeth Cole, Christian David, Richard Case Nagell, Gary Underwood, Rose Cheramie, Gerry Patrick Hemming, Joseph Milteer, Felipe Vidal Santiago, PFC Eugene B. Dinkin, Wayne January, and Anton Erdinger, among others.The FBI tracked Oswald’s movements since at least 1960, when FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover warned the State Department that someone seemed to be impersonating Oswald, then in the Soviet Union aa part of a CIA phony defector program.

The government trained him in Russian and gave him an honorable discharge, after which he immediately departed for St. Petersburg. The hope was that the KGB would recruit Oswald to spy for it in the United States. When the KGB didn’t take the bait, Oswald returned to the United States, at State Department expense, and walked into a job at a graphic arts company that processed highly classified photography from Cuban overflights for the USG.

A note from “A. Hidell” reportedly had warned Dallas Police Department of a plot against the president but disappeared after a post-assassination sweep of Dallas PD offices by the FBi. The “threat note” received by FBI Agent James Hosty likely warned of a threat against the president. If it had threatened the FBI to stay away from Oswald’s wife, as Hosty claimed, then why is it that Hosty destroy the note on his supervisor’s orders? He did so because the note tended to exonerate Oswald at a time when Hoover was determined to portray Oswald as the lone gunman.Not only did Oswald have no motive, but he didn’t have the means. No reliable evidence connected him to the Mannlicher-Carcano, including the doctored backyard photos and the shipment to a post office box belonging to one "A. Hidell," on the basis of a money order that was never deposited. A Dallas PD paraffin test indicated he hadn't fired a rifle that day. The 14-year old witness in the Edwin Walker shooting saw two men fleeing, and neither looked like Oswald. The caliber of the bullet found in Walker’s wall did not match that from the Mannlicher-Carcano. The pistol he allegedly used to kill Officer Tippett couldn’t even fire due to a bent firing pin.Oswald also didn’t have the opportunity. Reliable eyewitness testimony showed he wasn't on the Sixth Floor of the Texas School Book Depository at the time of the assassination. Dallas PD Officer Marrion Baker found him drinking a Coke in the second floor lunchroom just 90 seconds after the shooting. Oswald’s prints were never found on the gun until after two FBI agents planted Oswald’s palm print on it during a visit to his body in the funeral home.Johnson handpicked the Warren Commission in order to stave off a Congressional investigation and reassure the American people that no conspiracy was afoot, despite the testimony of witnesses who saw multiple gunmen. The Commission relied on the FBI, which cherrypicked the evidence and ignored, manipulated, discarded or otherwise suppressed anything that didn't fit the desired narrative of Oswald as the lone gunman. It was a Procrustean Bed, where the truth is stretched or cut away as much as editorial license requires in order to make the pieces of the government’s narrative fit, out of "patriotic duty." After all, what's a few white lies if they help to prevent World War III, as LBJ often intimated? Like the FBI investigation, its true purpose was to deflect suspicion from the one man with the greatest means, motive and opprtunity to kill the president, which was Lyndon B. Johnson.Johnson and the Kennedy Brothers hated each other. Johnson had blackmailed his way onto Kennedy’s ticket in 1960, using a dossier on Kennedy provided him by his close friend and next-door neighbor of 17 years J. Edgar Hoover. Kennedy had to retract his offer of the vice presidency to Missouri Senator Stuart Symington. With the help of his campaign manager John Connally, Johnson had cheated his way into the Senate by stuffing the ballot box in Precinct 13. He was profoundly corrupt, taking a slice of every major government defense contract that came before him, and, as Senate Majority Leader, he ensured that all such contracts would continue to move through him by taking the unprecedented step of having himself appointed Chairman of a Senate Armed Services subcommittee. With the help of his personal hitman Malcolm Wallace, Johnson plotted numerous political murders in order to cover up his corruption. But all was coming to an end for Johnson in November 1963. Kennedy was just beginning to campaign for re-election. He planned to replace Johnson in 1964 with Terry Sanford of North Carolina. Life Magazine, fed dirt on Johnson by Robert Kennedy’s Justice Department, was about to publish an exposé of Johnson’s ties to the Bobby Baker scandal in its December 1 edition, At the time of the assassination, Johnson was just one step away from political humiliation and criminal charges.Anti-Soviet military hawks seeking war in Vietnam, Texas oil tycoons fearful of losing the oil depletion allowance, CIA officials fired by Kennedy over the Bay of Pigs debacle, mafiosi angered by Kennedy’s war on crime, Secret Service agents scandalized by Kennedy’s private behavior, jealous husbands cuckolded by Kennedy, etc. — Johnson knew Kennedy’s many enemies in and outside the government and presented himself as their champion.Working with the Mafia, and with the complicity of certain members of the military and the Secret Service, elements of CIA murdered Kennedy. Hoover then led the FBI in framing Oswald for the crime. The Warren Commission relied wholly on the FBI investigation for its own conclusions. The CIA strategy designed to defend the Warren Report, and laid out in Document 1035-960, seeks to discredit skeptics as “conspiracy theorists.” Thanks to the penetration of our media by the CIA, via Operation Mockingbird, and the CIA's penetration and discrediting of the Jim Garrison investigation, this strategy succeeded to such a degree the Kennedy Assassinaion is now regarded as the Third Rail of American journalism.Attorney General Robert Kennedy and First Lady Jackie Kennedy were the first conspiracy theorists. Bobby immediately (and correctly) suspected the involvement in his brother’s murder of Operation Mongoose members involved in anti-Castro plotting. Jackie suspected LBJ and Secret Service collusion because she saw how Agent Greer had stopped the limo until the fatal shot. French Intelligence concluded LBJ was behind the murder, as did the Kremlin. Members of the Warren Commission itself made private statements disavowing the Lone Nut conclusion. And Lyndon Johnson was recorded at least twice as saying he suspected a conspiracy. Those who dismiss the evidence of conspiracy in JFK’s assassination forget that LBJ himself was a tinfoil hat type, and that the very people in the best position to know all believed in the existence of a conspiracy.Oswald could not have been fairly convicted. He had no motive, means or opportunity. He was denied minimum standards of due process. He had no access to an attorney. His police line-up was a farce. The single prison phone call to which he was entitled--he tried to call a retired Army intelligence officer--was deliberately prevented by the government from being connected. No record was kept of his interrogations. Lots of red flags there.But Oswald's murder by Jack Ruby was surely our first strong indication of conspiracy. Of course, what looked like a gangland hit to silence a potentially problematic witness was quickly explained away as the misguided but well-meaning act of another Lone Nut. Never mind the dozen different witnesses who said Oswald knew Ruby. They must have "been mistaken." They also never tell you that Ruby was a gun runner to Cuba, helped spring Santos Trafficante from a Cuban prison, and was once hired to work on the staff of then-Congressman Richard Nixon, as a favor to then-Senator Lyndon Johnson, who wanted to exempt him from having to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee. I guess that little tidbit wasn’t newsworthy enough. Ruby began to hint broadly in prison that Johnson was behind the assassination. After a jail cell injection, Ruby publicly charged that the USG had just given him cancer. He was accused of paranoia, by died within weeks of a previously-undiagnosed and particularly virulent form of cancer.Silvia Odio claimed she'd met Oswald with two anti-Castro Cubans some weeks before, but she must have "been mistaken," too, even though she never sought publicity, her sister confirmed the visit, and she'd written to her father of the meeting shortly afterward.The case against Geroge H.W. Bush is stronger than the case against Lee Oswald. Poppy Bush was already working for CIA and in Dallas that day. He was CIA liaison to the Cuban-American community, and many of the hitmen at Dealey Plaza were Cuban-Americans. In fact, Bush was temporarily detained as a “suspicious person” by Dallas PD at the Dal-Tex Building immediately after the assassination, as was mafioso James Braden. Bush appears in a photo of the scene just after the assassination. The second floor of the Dal-Tex Building, where a CIA front company was renting offices, is considered a very likely sniper site. Its low trajectory and field of vision were almost ideal. Bush has given conflicting accounts of his actions and whereabouts that day. Despite the solemnity of the event, as he recounted during his eulogy for Pres. Gerald Ford the crime committed in Dallas by that “lone, deranged gunman,” he broke into a wide grin. He once remarked “if the American people knew what we’d done, they’d chase us down the street and lynch us.” Maybe we should take him at his word.We now know the Zapruder Film was altered, and we now know how, who, where, and when. A government-led conspiracy is implicit in the altering of the film. Consequently, this so-called "time-clock" of the assassination isn't reliable. First of all, Zapruder insisted he filmed the motorcade at 24 frames per second. The FBI claims it was filmed at only 18 frames per second, giving the government the opportunity to excise a quarter of the frames from the beginning. The fact that police emergency lights in the film flash erratically, instead of at a set periodicity, shows frames were excised. Superhuman movements, magically disappearing and reappearing motorcycle escorts, a completely immobile crowd of spectators in the foreground, splice marks, and other anomalies indicate the film was altered. Eyewitness testimony -- including of those who claim to have seen a different, longer version -- would suggest that what was excised were the overly wide limo turn, LBJ already ducking low in his car, the limo's pause behind the Stemmons Freeway sign, Agent Greer's stopping of the limo between the yellow hash marks painted on the curb, and the nature of the mortal head shot. Why would the film need to be altered at all, except to mask evidence of a conspiracy?In fact, the film gives additional proof of conspiracy, because it shows the mortal shot as driving JFK back and to the left. Not just that, but looking carefully at the margins of the film, we find that beginning at Frame 232, we can actually see the reflection of a sniper firing on the motorcade from atop the County Records Building. The shot that ricocheted off the pavement and struck James Tague in the cheek left a bullet mark aligning, not with the TBSD, but with the County Records Building, which might explain why the mark was quickly cemented over. With millions of pot holes still lining our roads, why the rush to re-pave this artifact of the assassination except to hide evidence, and why hide evidence unless it was of a conspiracy?The monumental dereliction of the Secret Service and its immediate destruction of evidence certainly smacked of foreknowledge and conspiracy. Set aside how the night before many of the agents were out carousing at a strip bar until nearly daylight and a dozen other lapses. We've now seen how agents were waved off of the bumper of the presidential limo just before the last turn onto Elm Street. Even in the altered version of the Zapruder Film, we've seen how Agent Greer slowed down the limo. We have the photographic and expert eyewitness testimony about the bullet hole in the limo's windshield, from the front, despite the efforts of the Secret Service to destroy the evidence immediately by sending the car to Ford Motor Company for a complete makeover. Even the Warren Report noted the presence, in the vicinity of the Grassy Knoll and TBSD, of mysterious men flashing Secret Service credentials, even though the Secret Service said it had no other agents in the area. Isn't that an indication of a possible conspiracy? What about the Secret Service's removal of the body, by force, to Washington, preventing Texas authorities from conducting the investigation, as required by law?Then, of course, there's the medical evidence. A shot in JFK's throat, identified by doctors at Parkland Hospital as having come from the front, was used by them to start a small incision for a tracheotomy. But by the time the body was examined and photographed for autopsy, the wound had taken the ragged appearance of an exit wound. The shot in JFK's back, earlier probed by two FBI agents who found it was shallow, instead was presented by CDR Hume at the autopsy as the entry wound for the "exit" wound in the throat. The angle didn't line up with the Sixth Floor of the TBSD, so artists weren't allowed to see the body; they were told what to depict in their inaccurate autopsy drawings. Similarly, Commission staff misrepresented the location of the wounds in order to expound the Magic Bullet theory. The small entry hole near JFK's hairline was sutured before the autopsy. The large hole in the back of JFK's head, attested to by everyone at Parkland, simply disappeared. Hume burned his autopsy records.Why were multiple sets of x-rays taken, except to help CDR Hume locate, and remove, bullet evidence? A peer-reviewed article by Dr. David Mantik explained how stereoscopic examination of the cranial x-rays, using optical density measurements, showed that an artifact was used to give the appearance that the back of the cranium was still intact. Mantik's study also revealed that a 6.5 mm bullet fragment that had mysteriously appeared in JFK's skull x-rays --apparently to implicate Oswald and "his" Mannlicher-Carcano -- was a forgery. It had been created by means of using photographic double exposure to superimpose the fake bullet onto Kennedy's x-ray, probably by Dr. John Ebersole, the Assistant Chief Radiologist at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Many of the x-rays that were taken are now missing. The duty log page concerning the taking of the x-rays was burned, on the order of Ebersole.Dr. Mantik's results were replicated by other researchers. This is science, not conjecture. Isn't tampering with evidence an indication of possible conspiracy? Oswald didn’t do it. Oswald was dead.At Bethesda Naval Hospital, one of those with his own film of the autopsy was LCDR William Bruce Pitzer. Just as he was retiring from the Navy to take a job with CBS Television, he was found dead in the hospital by a gunshot wound. A pistol lay by his side. Suicide was the ruling. His family didn’t believe it but was pressured by the Office of Naval Intelligence to say nothing. Years later, Lt. Col. Daniel Marvin informed his widow how, as a Green Beret those many years before, he’d turned down a pitch by CIA to assassinate her husband before he could “pass secrets to the enemy.”Who was the enemy? The American people, apparently. Why else is it that 53 years after the assassination, so much of the evidence in the JFK assassination remains under seal at the National Archives for reasons of national security? Is the USG really still protecting its “sources and methods,” or does it simply not want the American people to know the truth behind the assassination?It’s a matter of record that various people impersonated Oswald in Mexico City. How is the impersonation of Oswald in Mexico City proof of anything if not a conspiracy? It could only have been organized by people with knowledge of the CIA’s surveillance of the Soviet and Cuban diplomatic compounds — in other words: the Soviet regime, the Cuban regime, the Mexican government, or the U.S. government. The CIA station in Mexico City transmitted to the FBI the evidence tending to incriminate Oswald and destroyed its recordings of the impersonator shortly afterward, when, in fact, it had been advised by CIA headquarters on October 10 that the impersonator didn't match Oswald's description. That destruction of evidence and transmission of false evidence wasn't by the Soviets, Cubans or Mexicans. It could only have been achieved inside the CIA station in Mexico City. How is it that the USG has no photos of Oswald entering the Soviet and Cuban embassies when CIA had both under 24/7 camera coverage?The phone system in Washington, DC, went down at virtually the exact time as the assassination. We're told it was system overload. Was it just coincidence that most of the Cabinet was on the other side of the world and that a brigade of the 82nd Airborne was en route to the United States? Another coincidence is that rightwing arch-reactionary and Kennedy-hater Air Force Lieutenant General Curtis LeMay had picked that same day to go on a hunting trip to Canada -- someone called a news service to ask about a report his plane had crashed -- but he was quickly able to return to Washington in time to smoke a (celebratory?) cigar while watching the president's autopsy. But it’s awfully hard to imagine it was just coincidence that the nuclear codes were absent from all B-52 crews patrolling our skies that day. Oswald couldn't have accomplished that. Nor could the Mafia, the Cubans, the Soviets or anyone other than elements within the U.S. Government.One needn't give full credence to the views of LBJ's mistress of over 20 years, or to Billie Sol Estes' sworn affidavit, or to E. Howard Hunt's confession, or to Marita Lorenz' open court testimony, or to LBJ's personal attorney's allegations, or to the identification of Malcolm Wallace’s fingerprint at the TBSD snipers nest, or to James Files’ confession asthe Grassy Knoll gunman, to conclude that LBJ was behind, or in the least acquiesced to, the assassination. A lot of circumstantial evidence suggests it. The story even goes that LBJ was carrying in his pocket the oath of office that was used to swear him in aboard Air Force One. Anyone can see the photo of him sharing a wink and grin with his protégé and alleged criminal accomplice Cong. Albert Thomas immediately after taking the oath.Although he supposedly feared a Cuban or Soviet conspiracy, it's telling that Johnson didn't raise the military alert level. Neither did the Joint Chiefs, although the U.S. Commander in the Pacific did, on his own authority. It's also telling that the Joint Chiefs had completely reversed Kennedy's Vietnam policy by the end of the very first business day after his assassination.The conspiracy continues, probably mostly for purposes of institutional self-protection, but also because some of the conspirators went on to exercise great power and influence, which persist to this day. Still don’t believe me? Then ponder this for a moment. Murder and treason have no statute of limitations, Castro is dead, the USSR collapsed 27 years ago, diplomatic relations with Cuba are fully normalized, and yet following up on the murder of the POTUS by an alleged Castro sympathizer isn't even on the bilateral agenda.The murder of a POTUS by a potential Cuban agent, no diplomatic relations with Havana all these years, and yet the USG doesn't even want to follow up on any investigative leads? Anyone who's ever worked for the USG should find that telling, very telling indeed.Oswald had no motive for killing Kennedy, but the Military-Industrial Complex—of which Pres. Dwight Eisenhower had warned in his Farewell Address—certainly did. On Nov. 22, 1963, the MIC became what today is termed the “Deep State,” and it has secretly ruled America ever since.
