MAJOR EVENT (S) MONDAY RE: JFK ASSASSINATION CASE
SecretServiceguy
Two items I will add to the press release below. Jeff Morley of the
Washington Post is joining the panel to discuss his fascinating FOIA
battle with the CIA over 32 pages of documents that may clarify the
much speculated about connection between Lee Harvey Oswald and the CIA.
And US News World Report is running a major feature about the press
conference that will be on their website Sunday and on sale Monday. It
looks like we will have several TV crews at this point.
Did the U.S. Government Cover-up JFK Assassination Details?
Five renowned experts present new findings in DC
WASHINGTON, DC, May 15, 2006 - Five prominent John F. Kennedy
assassination experts will convene today at the Willard Hotel in the
nation's capitol to present new findings and make the case that the
U.S. government's investigation of the JFK assassination was replete
with errors and, most likely, a deliberate cover-up.
These experts will also raise an important question: Does the JFK
assassination 43 years ago (and the U.S. government's likely cover-up
of the details of that assassination) hold the key to regaining public
trust in government?
These five experts - appearing for the first time in a national forum
together - each have meticulously assembled key parts of a complex
puzzle that lead any objective observer to just one conclusion: that
the government deliberately covered up the details of the JFK
assassination and misled the American public.
For instance, one expert has assembled new photographic evidence that
raises substantial questions about whether the Zapruder film was
altered while in the government's possession. Others will present new
suggestions that a second brain was, in fact, used in an autopsy
cover-up.
A CBS poll on the 40th observance of the JFK assassination in 2003
indicated that only 10% of the American people believe The Warren
Report, while 74% think believe there was a cover-up. Many experts
believe that the U.S. government's mishandling of its investigation
of the Kennedy assassination began what is by now a deep inclination
for the American public to distrust it.
A Washington publishing company executive, Paul Kuntzler, hopes that,
by bringing nationally renowned JFK assassination experts together for
the first time to reveal important findings on the errors in how the
government handled the JFK assassination, Congress and the
administration will re-open the case in an effort to finally get to the
truth.
Kuntzler's company, Miller Reporting, has a proven record for
integrity in handling records and transcripts for government agencies
for more than 30 years. Ironically the records it transcribed for The
Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) in 1998 were the ones that
troubled him the most. They were the most exhaustive attempt at
reconstructing the evidence to date. And he is bringing together a
group of some of the nation's leading experts on the death of JFK to
help sort things out at a meeting at the Willard Hotel at 11AM on
Monday, May 15th.
"My belief is that our country has lost its way," Kuntzler said. "If
we could find out what happened in Dallas, it might help us to figure
out a way to regain a sense of trust in government." His concern is
that this may be a seminal instance in which the American government
lied to the American people.
"If it is possible for someone to assassinate a President in broad
daylight in a major American city, and then have the federal government
fake the autopsy evidence and conceal the nature of the crime itself,
then those who exercised that kind of power are emboldened to repeat
performances of that kind over and over again. The American people are
not unreasonable to suspect that that has happened to them many times
by now."
The ARRB was created by the JFK Records Act passed by Congress in 1992.
It had the unprecedented power to declassify documents and records held
by the CIA, the FBI, the Secret Service, and other agencies of the
government. Only the President could override its decisions.
President George H.W. Bush opposed the legislation and, when it passed
over his opposition, refused to appoint its members, which had to await
the incoming Clinton administration.
The five experts Kuntzler will present include:
n James H. Fetzer, McKnight Professor at the University of Minnesota.
Fetzer has chaired or co-chaired four conferences on the death of JFK
and has published three books on this event: Assassination Science,
Murder in Dealey Plaza, and The Great Zapruder Film Hoax. Fetzer is
not surprised at the unprecedented level of public disbelief in the
Warren Report. "Considering that the crux of the government's
position, the 'magic bullet' theory, is not even anatomically possible,
it should be even higher."
n David W. Mantik, M.D., Ph.D., has worked with the tangled web of
inconsistent and contradictory medical evidence, including the autopsy
X-rays and photographs, for many years. "It's hardly surprising that
most Americans don't know what to make of this case," he observed.
"Even a Ph.D. in physics and an M.D. did not adequately prepare me for
this chaotic record. It was probably fortuitous that John Ebersole,
M.D., who was the officer in charge of radiology at Bethesda during the
autopsy, and I happen to have the same medical specialty, radiation
oncology. Otherwise, I might not have been able to figure out what
happened to the official records during the autopsy."
n Douglas Horne, the Senior Analyst for Military Affairs for the ARRB
who discovered the existence of records demonstrating the conduct of
two postmortem brain exams, described the experience of searching
through seemingly endless documents for a few nuggets of truth as
frustrating and exasperating. "This just may be the single most
bizarre case in the history of forensic science," he observed. "I can
certainly understand why Mr. Kuntzler has found this case the most
disturbing. I was there during the ARRB's search for records, but I
still find it challenging to take the case apart and put it together
and make all the pieces fit."
n Thomas Lipscomb, the noted journalist and publisher, was President of
Times Books, the New York Times book division when it published The
Final Report of the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1979.
"As a young officer in charge of a US Army Rifle and Pistol Team at the
time of the Kennedy assassination," he said, "I was asked to try to
replicate the feats attributed to Oswald with a mail order carbine
exactly like his. I couldn't. But I feel a lot better now that no one
else has either, including teams at CBS and the Discovery channel." A
senior fellow at the Annenberg Center for the Digital Future, Lipscomb
has been investigating the authenticity of the photographic record,
including the Zapruder film, and has unearthed disturbing
discrepancies.
n Joan Mellen, a professor at Temple University, is the author of
Farewell to Justice, a new study of the trial of Clay Shaw brought by
New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, which led her to important
discoveries showing CIA and FBI involvement in the Kennedy
assassination "After going through thousands of documents released
since the Assassination Records and Review Act, and doing 1,200
interviews, I've learned that Jim Garrison had a host of suspects who
played a role in the implementation of the assassination of President
Kennedy. Like any criminal investigator, he sometimes found himself in
a blind alley. He would have been no investigator if that hadn't
happened. Yet he came up with the truth closer than anyone has before
or since."

the medical evidence that blow the official story right out of the water
with corroborated evidence.. It's a shame that all the U.S. News And
World Report can write is a snide irrelevant paragraph about some
alteration of shoes in the ZFilm-even if true who cares? Regarding this
Lipscomb-I don't know who he is, but it did mention in the press
release he was head of an Army re-enactment program in regards to LHO's
alleged shooting feat and his team couldn't do it! Now, that's a little
more important than the afforementioned.
Apparently, according to a post he put up on Simkin's Board- he talked
about the 3 possibilities for the back of the head being intact-he
doesn't believe photo alteration, or the scalp stretching cannard, it
was reconstruction.very interesting. Said he is working on a book. Can't
wait.

i don't see any messages from "griz" in this newsgroup
"ted" is in my blocked sender's list and "griz" isn't, funny how that works
it appears you're right and he's hiding behind "griz"
