In this highlight from May 2007, "Reclaiming History" author Vincent Bugliosi discusses what he believes may have been Lee Harvey Oswald's motive to assassinate John F. Kennedy. Rather than acting out a personal attack against the former president, Bugliosi speculates Oswald may have viewed JFK as the "quintessential representative of a society for which he had a grinding contempt."
-----
Vincent Bugliosi, prosecutor of the Manson family and best-selling author of Helter Skelter, reexamines the assassination of President Kennedy in his newest book Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Evan Thomas, editor at large of Newsweek magazine, interviews Bugliosi on the stage of The Great Hall.
Polls reveal that more than 75 percent of Americans believe there was a conspiracy behind Lee Harvey Oswald; some even believe Oswald was entirely innocent.
Vincent Bugliosi, prosecutor of Charles Manson and the author of the number one bestseller "Helter Skelter" has spent 20 years investigating the assassination and its aftermath. "Reclaiming History," Bugliosi's absorbing and historic book - the first ever to cover the entire case - shows how we have come to believe such lies about the tragic event. Using the skills that made him one of the most successful prosecutors in legal history, Bugliosi has examined every conspiracy theory from every angle.
"Reclaiming History" strips the paranoia away from an event that changed the history of America and the world - The Cooper Union
Vincent Bugliosi received his law degree in 1964 from U.C.L.A. law school, where he was president of his graduating class. In his career as a prosecutor for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, he successfully prosecuted 105 out of 106 felony jury trials, including twenty-one murder convictions without a single loss. His most famous trial was the Charles Manson case, which became the basis of his true crime classic, Helter Skelter, the biggest-selling true crime book in publishing history.
Bugliosi has uncommonly attained success in two separate and distinct fields, as a lawyer and an author. Three of his true crime books, Helter Shelter, And The Sea Will Tell, and Outrage, The Five Reasons Why O.J. Simpson Got Away With Murder, reached number one on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list.
I remember the day Kennedy was killed, and I still don't know what to believe. But I did become suspicious when Jack Ruby shot Oswald to death in the city jail, surrounded by cops. I was only a kid, but I remember thinking that something wasn't quite right.
@Sports Guru The mob is the second patsy.

Watch The Trial of Oswald. It's all out there for anyone to see. Nothing odd about it.
@@dks13827 is that trial suposed to be definative?
@@larryhall7998 Boy, you sure are compassionate, tolerant, and open minded... Do you just hurl that at everyone you disagree with?
In this clip, Bugliosi is seen bumbling and fumbling about LHO's purported motives for executing the murder of the century. According to Bugliosi, LHO had delusions of grandeur, was filled with hatred, and had a vicious, grinding contempt for the US Government--although Bugliosi admits that this explanation for a motive is far from cohesive. To defend his assertion, however, Bugliosi says that a motive isn't necessary to establish LHO's guilt and that the mechanics of the crime alone prove LHO's guilt. So let's see if the mechanics can be reconciled with Bugliosi's purported motives for LHO, merely by analyzing the timeline of the assassination. On 11/22/1963, at 12:15 pm or shortly thereafter, Carolyn (Johnson) Arnold saw LHO on the TSBD's second floor lunchroom eating lunch as she was headed out to watch JFK's motorcade pass by. Everyone at the TSBD knew that the President was scheduled to pass by at 12:25 pm (but did not know that the motorcade was running a bit late). [Would an angry, deranged assassin who was planning on shooting the President at 12:25 pm (or even 12:29 pm when his limo did pass by) be hanging around the second floor having a relaxing lunch at 12:15 pm if he knew that he had to be on the sixth floor shooting at the President within just a few minutes?] At 12:29 - 12:30 pm, the shots were fired at JFK, including the last, most accurate, and fatal shot. At 12:31 pm, Patrolman M.L. Baker with revolver in hand, accompanied by TSBD Superintendent Roy S. Truly (LHO's supervisor), rushed to the second floor lunchroom and found LHO walking toward a Coca Cola machine. Both Baker and Truly said that LHO was not out of breath and appeared calm and composed. LHO was next seen by Mrs. R.A. Reid, a clerical supervisor at the TSBD, who said she saw LHO walk casually through the second floor clerical office holding a bottle of Coca Cola. [Would an assassin with a vicious, grinding hatred for the US Government, who had just rushed up from the second floor to the sixth floor to assassinate the President, rush back down again to the second floor to have a Coke and immediately become calm and composed like no Zen master ever could?] Then, LHO was seen again several minutes after the assassination, walking out the front of the TSBD, by cub reporter Pierce Allman, who was looking for a pay phone. LHO pointed Allman to the direction behind him inside the TSBD, where a phone was located. Allman said that the man who told him where the phone was located appeared completely calm (although Allman did not learn until later that this man was LHO). Thus, if Bugliosi and the US Government's official story is to be believed, LHO,--who they said was delusional, unreliable, deranged, filled with hatred and vicious contempt for the US Government, and was extremely mentally unstable--just flawlessly executed the murder of the century in record time with military precision, seen by no one rushing to or from the scene of the crime, and at the same time, established a near perfect alibi for himself, appearing calm and collected having lunch before the assassination and a Coke afterward and then seen calmly leaving the TSBD after helping out Pierce Allman to find a phone. The only thing Bugliosi proves here is that the old adage about lawyers is true. When you have the facts, you argue the facts, when you have the law, you argue the law, and when you have neither--as Bugliosi does here--you blow smoke.
So who specifically shot Kennedy and with what weapon? Mob, Government, CIA, LBJ, Secret Service, Police are groups not people. I want a name and weapon and evidence. Ex: LHO shot JFK with manlicher Carcano rifle from the sixth floor window of the TSBD building. Witnesses saw him as he was shooting and his fingerprints were found on the weapon.
Yeah Calm is suspicious because Everyone else was not. They just watched the president's head explode. That's why the witness remembered that.

Well said, reclaiming the trashcan
The stupidity of the Conspiracy nuts, I bet you voted for TRUMP!!
Mr. Bugliosi said Oswald had " illusions of granduer" and he wanted to do something that people would remember for 10000 years. Yet LHO denied doing it. That contradicts Mr. Bugliosi's "motive", IMO.
tom p maybe he denied it because he knew it would cause what it has caused. Mis-trust with government, a bunch of ideas of what really happened, no definitive answer , conspiracy theories, and people talking about it for years and years. If he admitted his guilt, the story would have lost interest quickly
Unless he wanted to do it and get away with it. How much greater that would be in O's mind... The act, not the credit, say. Or to be found not guilty like OJ, and then confess once double jeopardy barred retrial. OJ could confess to killing Nicole today and not be tried criminally for murder, for example.
LHO's denial of guilt, and the emotion with which he denied guilt, do indeed flatly refute the BS claim that LHO did it because he wanted to become famous. Such individuals not only do *not* deny their guilt; they proudly declare it to all who will listen. And neither would such a person take a chance of botching his opportunity by not taking his shot at the President when the limo was slowing down to a near stop, coming straight at him, on Houston, before it turned onto Elm Street and started accelerating away from him with tree limbs obstructing his view.
But the fact that absolutely disproves the notion that LHO had any kind of motive to kill JFK was the fact that he was a Communist (ideals) _sympathizer_ . JFK did not have a reputation in Dallas of being an anti-Communist hero, who had a habit of threatening war with the USSR. In fact, it was precisely the opposite, and LHO was very knowledgeable student of politics.
If he was a Commie-symp who wanted to go down in history as a noble assassin, then he would have killed some nationally known politician who was heartily embraced by the John Birch Society. Not Kennedy, whom the JBS viewed as "Wanted For Treason" for not invading Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis. _Nothing_ that we know about Oswald supports the utterly irrational claim that he had any motive to kill Kennedy. He was completely innocent of the crime.
You would have to be brain dead to fall for Bugliosi's crap.
Vern, yours is the weakest argument form known to logic. Only someone "braindead" would use it to avoid supporting his own claims. Gosh! You make refutation easy.
I hope Vincent is in conversation with Oswald beyond the grave.
Ressurection of the righteous and unrighteous in the new world to come '
If this was true then why didn't Oswald admit to it on national television?
Because I didn't do it.....Bugliosi is a documented liar....see works of Lisa Pease and Jim D'Eugenio
@@justinblackface6969 😆
He was total failute, at the highest moment of his life he didn't take the credit!
jrizzle drizzle, ... I don't see why you think that's odd and problematic. LHO never went to trial. He was never in front of the camera that much and that long. Maybe he thought he could beat the rap and wanted to give himself a chance to beat the charges in court. He was in police custody for only a total of 36 hours before he was gunned down by Ruby in the basement of The Dallas Police Department. A day and a half! That's nothing.
O. J. Simpson, to this day, still maintains his innocence.
@@Bamruff62 I see your point
pro-pa-gan-da.
Why would Lee, who was openly a commununist, join the Marines who just got done fighting a war against the communist in Korea?
Were there many Communists in the ranks of the Marine corps, then or now?
@@rustyshackelford9156 well this is an opinion but I suspect there would not be
"His fevered mind" and "Visions of Grandeur" This is such a tired explanation. Trying to make Oswald into a mentally imbalanced person is absurd based on how little was known about him. Bugliosi completely failed at explaining who Oswald was. As did most of the Warren Report Apologists.
You clearly have not read Bugliosi's book, which explains LHO's life in great detail.
@@curbozerboomer1773 I don't need to waste my time on Bugliosi as his comments about his book and "investigation" was riddled with lies. One of the worst was his comment that Parkland didn't have Forensic Pathologists as some kind of lame explanation as to why the body was taken to Bethesda (at gunpoint I might add) Parkland had done hundreds of gunshot autopsies. And their doctors were experts, unlike the two rookies at Bethesda who had never done a gunshot autopsy, and burned their notes. (twice)
And now that we know there were more bullets found at Parkland than were fired from Oswald's Gun, everything that is spewed by the Chief WR APologist is a moot point. Regardless if Oswald was involved, he clearly did not do this alone. Bugliosi knew that before he even picked up pen to paper for his utterly absurd Parroting of the failed Warren Report.
I’ll save you 3min 48sec. He says “we’ll never know the answer to that question”
Yes, the question as stated in the title was "why did Oswald assassinate JFK?" and at the end of the video he says we'll never know the answer to that question. So the title is BS and watching the video is a waste of viewers time
And what better way to quell the conspiracy beast and stop the propulsion than by putting a video up about Oswald's alleged motive and then just saying "Eh, guess we'll never know lmfao."
Good on Bug for admitting that.
@@doctorratinho imagine getting fucked up over a title. You must care way too much about how titles should be worded or something. You could've easily just gone about your day, but no, you got mad over a fucking youtube title that you probably wont ever see again. Great work, bud
What he’s saying is we can’t know the motive unless spoken by the guilty party, and even then they have to be credible which Oswald was not. He’s clearly saying that based upon the evidence, the killing of JFK was motivated by the killing of the ultimate representative for the Capitalist system. He argues this by pointing to Oswald’s behaviours and words.
Vincent Bugliosi is a disgrace. His book is full of errors and distortions, many of which have been documented by other authors online. Just in some of the interviews I've seen of Vince on TH-cam, I've already caught Vince in many distortions myself. I'm not sure what his agenda is, but he is full of baloney. Most people do not believe the Oswald acted alone theory - why can't he accept that?
Because he is a patriot, and wants the people to hear the actual truth of the murder...You are the disgrace!
The way Bugliosi spoke here it sounds made up by him to me. It appears to be all his inference. Anyone could've came up with this opinion.
You are a genius, I guess!
cant believe they had the audacity to put this on youtube, such garbage belongs to be aired by cnn msnbc and such crap
Many witnesses in Dealey Plaza saw Lee Harvey Oswald climb into a Rambler Station Wagon getting away . But another Oswald is known to have walked several blocks right after the shots were fired, then got into a city bus, exited the bus shortly thereafter as it was stalled in traffic, and climbed into a cab. Bugliosi may be a good attorney, but he is short on facts regarding the JFK murder. Pretty good chance neither Oswald ( yes there were two - Lee or Harvey ) shot a shot that day in Dallas. Read Harvey and Lee by John Armstrong if you want to know some facts!
Jon you are right on...two oswalds yep. Roger craig saw one get into rambler....the other guy[name escapes me]who gave him a ride that morning saw him headed out on Elm street. Talk about a Nightmare on Elm. Love Armstrong's work.
You sir, are a mis-informed fool.
No.
Only one person claimed that he saw Oswald get into a Rambler station wagon, in front of the grassy knoll, 15-20 minutes after the shooting, by which stage people had calmed down and were searching the knoll.
And his name is Robert Craig. He didn’t come out with this claim until a long time later, and made other dubious claims.
Ergo: It’s a joke claim with no credibility. Either Craig is imagining things or he made it up for money.
the only thing we know for sure, is that we don't know anything for sure. the only thing we know for sure, whoever did it, is dead now.
The shooters were probably dead before sundown that same day. They couldn't afford to have them running around knowing what they knew. As for the intellectual authors, some of them may still be alive. But the important thing is not the actual people, but the powerful hidden or double-faced institutions that planned it. This was clearly an inside job if ever there was one.
If Oswald shot JFK b/c he had delusions of grandeur and wanted to do something that would be remembered for ten thousand years - then why did he deny it?
I think he was playing a game with the cops, and to a certain extent the press. In the footage that exists of him, he comes off as very smug. But again, there's no way of knowing for sure.
Because in the end, he was just a cop killer.
@@superchitownhustler a patsy
You just destroyed this guy's argument, nicely done
Yeah that doesn't make sense
Name 2 people who were shot in the back of the head at a theatre. Abraham Lincoln & the guy sitting in front of Pee Wee Herman.
Odd that only two or three decades later George W. Bush could not remember where he was when Kennedy was shot.....
he said he was in tyler tx, bull////.
I believe it was George H.W. Bush, W's father who said that..
Because 3 later to be Presidents had their finger prints all over this conspiracy .Bush who was in Dallas that day ,Nixon who was their and later gave 2 different accounts of where he was ,and Ford who helped cover it up. As part of Earl Warrens cover up.
It was the elder dude...man, people in this comment section are bone-heads!
Why would Oswald shoot the president? no reason that's why because he did not do it
Oswald did not shoot JFK. Case closed.
John A. Yes ur right.
It was the Easter bunny🙃😜😼😳😀😂😅
Your brain went dead a long time ago.
No, he did not. Oswald was a patsy, just like he managed to say before he was killed and gotten out of the way of the public finding out the truth. It's a deep and twisted scenario, as well as the murders of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy.
Dude I think you’re grasping…many men in their early 20’s are dreaming big and wanting to be somebody-that is nothing unusual at all. I’m not saying Oswald is innocent or guilty, but you’re logic in this segment is quite weak. If Oswald hated the US (which I still love!), that does NOT make him a killer. It’s barely circumstantial. Bug is trying to back up a stance he’s taken but has fleshed out in this tiny segment very poorly-if you get down in the weeds and listen to the minutiae with people like Mark Lane, you’ll realize that there is something so rotten with this whole story that it’s absolutely incredible. Oswald as a lone nut acting all by himself simply does not fit. Just my humble opinion.
Ha...ha...delusion of grandeur is Napoleon Bugliosi himself.
WHY are the interrogations w/Oswald at the Dallas Police Station not made public?
Take a wild guess, Napoleon.
That does seem to fit Bug doesn't it? Maybe he's projecting.
His interrogation summations are in the warren commission report. Educate yourself
@@johncooper7663 Are you serious?! "summations"...I want to hear the unedited audio...not what someone summed up...especially not from the W.C.
@@DrLongBear There was no audio. That’s why. The only audio is the press conference. As if Oswald was set up they would have a press conference. You people 🙄
@@johncooper7663 I logged in with a different email...sorry for any confusion. The statement was sardonic, i.e., mocking or cynical, sarcastic, to make myself clear...I know there was no audio. WHY? I cannot think of a single time when law enforcement doesn't record interviews contemporaneously...either in stenographic fashion, or be video, or by recorder, but Dallas P.D. claimed not to have a audio recorder...which only a buffoon would believe...and there were plenty of reporters hanging around outside who had recorders on them...Oswald was interviewed for hours and not one single cop had a clue to go out and get what they said they did not have...ask a reporter...I am betting if one were asked he or she would have wet him or herself with the excitement of playing a role in the crime of the century by providing the recorder that was used to interrogate the "alleged assassin of the president"...and where do you get off with the "you people" statement?! You have a lot of nerve and appear to be a keyboard cowboy, taking shots at people who in my case, will certainly fire back with facts and reasoning and logic...is that too tough for you buddy? If so, get your facts right, and do not assume someone, anyone, knows less than you know...frankly, I hear sarcasm in the very TH-cam handle you proudly use...so, you acquaint, or equal yourself to and with D.B. Cooper, do you?! If so, you best grab a parachute...you are going to need one at this rate. Have a quiet evening. and a blessed holiday season.
The magic bullet absolutely proof that Mr Oswald was not alone and possibly never did anything. No bullet that has cause so much damage could possibly stay so pristine. it simply is not possible
@Bryan Mack I dont care about your opinion. I want to see proof so it is an irrelevant question. No Carcano bullet has ever gone through bones, flesh and cloth and emerge pristine UNLESS it was shot into water, into softwood like pine or into cotton. If you think otherwise please furnish the proof. All the tested bullets mushroomed.
@Bryan Mack It was a doctored bullet placed on the stretcher at Parkland Hospital. It was never at Dealey Plaza.
Not true. The simplest explanation is usually the best. Unfortunately, the lone gunman theory is not even an explanation, much less a simple one. There is not one bit of credible or incontrovertable evidence that he did any shooting at all that day. Look at the case and you will see that. I don't believe in a conspiracy because it makes me feel superior, but it is the best and simplest explanation for the facts as they are known.
All the evidence points to Oswald there is zero evidence of conspiracy or another gunman and that's just the fact of life that you cannot accept
Lone nut theory is more bizarre then a conspiracy theory.
Okay so maybe you dont need a motive in a criminal prosecution in California, but if you wanna 'Reclaim History', then yeah, Im gonna need to hear that motive, Sir. 'Hmmpff. I Dont Need One.' aint gonna cut it.
And... it didn't take place in California.
There was a minimum of two shooters involved in the death of the President
CE-399 was a Full Metal Jacket
The third shot was a hollow point
Meaning two different rounds and atleast two shooters
Why do you believe the third shot was a hollow point?
@@9Ballr Hollow point or Mercury filled projectile tip...because it exploded.
@@DrLongBear If the third shot was a hollow point bullet, which shot left the large bullet fragments found in the limo that were traced to Oswald's rifle?
@@9Ballr There were many more fragments and actual projectiles then has been made known to the public. I have over 112 Gigabytes of Printed, audio and video materials on the JFK Assassination...the beginning of any research must start with empty assumptions...instead of conclusions tayloring the evidence, evidences must produce the conclusions if we are to be correct with our results. We are told it was one guy with three bullets and no one else was involved...no one...ponder the thought...could there have been more? Perish the thought...really?! I am sharing some proveable facts with you, from some excellent sources...I have sited them all for you...some links are lengthy but well worth any effort. Good Luck!
This is the story of a bullet - a spent, misshapen, but otherwise intact, bullet - that a Navy doctor said was found late at night, on the floor, in the back of John Kennedy’s limousine. No one seems to want to acknowledge it.
Today, a majority of Americans assume the government lied about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. New evidence seems to prove they are right.
Here is the story of the bullet - a spent, misshapen, but otherwise intact, bullet - that James Young, a Navy doctor, said was found late at night, on the floor, in the back of Kennedy’s limousine. He inspected it himself.
The bullet was found by two chief petty officers who, during the autopsy, were sent to retrieve any skull fragments they could find in the limousine. They came back with three pieces of bone, and the bullet. The skull fragments were reported - but not the bullet.
Years later, when reviewing a memoir he wrote in 1963, Young thought about that bullet, and tried to find some mention of it in the Warren Commission Hearings. To his dismay, he found nothing. In 2000, he wrote to President Gerald Ford to ask him about it. After all, Ford had been on the Warren Commission. But Ford said he knew nothing about it either. In 2001, two Navy historians interviewed Young who gave them a highly detailed account of the events of November 22, 1963, some of which he witnessed personally. And he mentioned the bullet.
Recently, Dr. Randy Robertson, a board member of the Assassination Archives and Research Center (AARC) came upon Young’s papers at a Navy website. This was an exciting discovery.
To understand the significance of this discovery, readers need to know that - according to the official record - only one whole bullet was recovered, the “magic bullet” found on Governor John Connally’s stretcher. And, agents found inside the limousine what is presumed to be two parts of one broken bullet. Numerous very small lead fragments were also found in the limousine, Connally’s wrist, and Kennedy’s brain. If close inspection of the bullet allegedly found in the back of the limousine were to show that it was not fired from Lee Harvey Oswald’s rifle, this would prove to be a threat to the official narrative of a lone assassin.
Here, Robertson describes in an email how he came upon this apparently suppressed evidence:
“I was surfing the internet and somehow stumbled upon the Navy Live website. I found the What Price A Rose piece [the memoir] and found it intriguing because although I had heard of Young I never knew he attended the autopsy…”
Robertson is referring to excerpts of the memoir - none of which included the part about the bullet. But he delved further:
“After that I found the earlier piece Navy Medicine and the Kennedy Assassination which contained the dynamite about the bullet…
“After that it was detective work. I FOIA’ed the transcripts and received them and found out the actions Young had taken to find out what had happened to the bullet he had seen and corroborate what he had told the Navy interviewers. That led me to the Ford Library and the wonderful letter.”
Robertson remains cautious about this discovery since only one witness corroborates Young’s claims - the petty officer who found the bullet.
Below you will find Ford’s bewildering response.
For the convenience of the reader, I have retyped vital parts of Young’s letter to Ford, and Ford’s response.
Letter From James Young to Gerald Ford (Excerpted)
Dear President Ford,
I was active-duty Navy and assigned to the White House as White House Physician in 1963, when President Kennedy was assassinated…
Knowing that you were on the Warren Commission at that time, I am writing to you confidentially, to see if you have any knowledge about an issue which has puzzled me for years…
My particular problem is a description of what occurred at the autopsy. During the autopsy examination, Dr. Jim Humes, then the Chief of Pathology at Bethesda Naval Hospital, and two other pathologists stated that some pieces of President Kennedy’s skull bones were missing. In order to reconstruct the President’s head for burial, Dr. Humes wanted to find those pieces which were missing. Dr. Burkley and I requested two of our corpsmen who were assigned to our White House medical unit, to go to the Executive Office Building where the Secret Service had placed the “Queen Mary,” [sic] the open convertible in which President Kennedy had been shot, for bone fragments.
Two of the corpsmen left and returned sometime later with three varying sized pieces of President Kennedy’s skull bones. In addition, they brought back in an envelope a spent misshapen bullet which they had found on the back floor of the “Queen Mary”[sic] where they had found the pieces of skull bones. The bullet and pieces of skull were given to Dr. Jim Humes.
I have never seen anything written about that spent bullet in the Warren Report or elsewhere. Do you recall any testimony or comments which would clarify my concerns?
Ford’s reply was typical government B.S.
Projectiles and fragments were found all over. Here’s one source you may want to review…it will ask you to prove you are human…but that should be no problem...right?
www.mathewsopenaccess.com/full-text/real-time-and-in-situ-measurement-of-rifling-angles-with-a-hand-held-digital-device-a-technical-implication-to-the-jfk-assassination-case
In another instance, one witness saw a bullet strike the edge of a manhole cover and bury itself into the grass on Elm…he informed law enforcement and a search was conducted…one man in a suit, referred to as “agent,” was seen examining the grass area where the witness said he saw the bullet bury itself. When the “agent” stood up his hand was cupped and he placed the cupped hand in his pocket…in truth, we don’t know whether a bullet or bullet fragment was picked up…there was no report of the investigation, nor of any findings…however, the witness insisted he saw what he saw…it was ignored by everybody but those who tend to want to look more closely at anything their government tells them.
And…finally, please review this site: www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1978/12/22/experts-track-mystery-jfk-bullet/8fd930bf-a0ab-4c07-8a26-d5cc3993239b/
Dude,your CT is way too long to explore credence…
This guy is a prosecutor. What do you expect him to say?
That he has a crush on Kamala Harris.
AND A DUMB ONE AT THAT
The truth!...and he does just that!
Vincent, I can answer your question. He didn’t.
the reason LHO took a shot at Walker was that he was (in Oswald's eyes) a fascist and wanted to overthrow Castro. In fact after LHO shot at him, Walker embarked on a nationwide tour to drum up support to invade Cuba, or at the very least overthrow Castro. Oswald subscribed to the magazines The Militant and The Worker, two communist American publications which regularly had speculations that the Kennedy's were trying to assassinate him (they were right - Operation Mongoose). Knowing that, and as has been stated by both Paine's and Marina, and his Fair Play For Cuba work, LHO loved Castro. He probably had that as a major motive.
Oswald's love for Castro caused him to shoot Kennedy? Lol
BINGO!!!
@@rustyshackelford9156 quite possibly, and it's not necessarlily his only motive. But murderers don't need rational motives either. What was Hinkley's motive for shooting Reagan, why did Squeeky From shoot Ford, why did the Vegas sniper shoot people? Many of these ex-marines like the Vegas shooter and LHO had screws loose or had horrible lives, either before entering the marines, or after being traumatized in combat and being discharged. He wanted and tried to shoot Walker, got rejected by Marina on the evening of Nov 22, and was frustrated by everything in his life. He would have eventually shot someone.
I think it’s the Marxist dilemma in politics, which is that nobody is the perfect politician and therefore they’re expendable. How do the BLM and ANTIFA crowds react to the u er liberal mayors of Seattle, Portland, Chicago, and New York? They fucking hate them, and even attack them when they kowtow.
I think Oswald, as a Marxist, would get a genuine kick out of people that idolize JFK defending him. This is a guy that killed a cop, then punched another cop before pulling out his gun during an arrest…then claimed police brutality leaving the theatre. I mean, consider the Roe v. Wade protest where buddy tries to ignite officers, light them on fire, and while he’s arrested the witnesses of that act yell for him to be released and shout police brutality.
The Marxists are inherently self destructive. BLM is a great example of this, and the motivated reasoning used to defend blatant criminals is similar to that used to defend Oswald. The conspiracy theorists only have innuendo, baseless allegations, and emotional appeals.
Oswald was a fake communist. He ran guns and trained anti-Castro Cuban nationalists. Oswald was working closely with Banister and Ferrie, who were virulent anti-communists.
Question we will never know is why Ruby killed Oswald. 0 pic evidence 0 video evidence that has been shown that Oswald fired a shot at anyone. Why did driver after 1st shot not speed away when if you ask about anyone you driving thru a neighborhood an hear gunshot. You speed on out of there. An after 2nd shot he slows to an almost stop then last awful fatal shot. Just think about that if you on a jury. An what would you think if some witnesses said they saw Oswald some witnesses said they saw 2 men running away. Sorry you will never convince me this was just Oswald 3 shots 6 floor......
The driver was looking behind himself at Kennedy and Connoly because of the commotion that was going on. As soon as he saw Kennedy's headshot, he sped away. That's why he slowed down. You don't want your driver driving at regular speed and not looking ahead, do you?
@@SwitchPlayed i agree . the driver greer did react slowly , however we must remember it was just a short few seconds of time , 6 to 8 seconds . most people thought the first sound was a backfire or fire cracker . so i just think greer was trying to ascertain what was going on . however had he floored it upon hearing the first bang that could have save jfks life .but how would we each of us react in the same situation ? .we are all human .
bugliosi liked to have the floor to himself lol . no pesky CT to embarrass him . when interviewed by jesse ventura (his friend ) he refused to talk about the case on camera , i wonder what he was afraid of ? . he appeared once in a panel that included mark lane , he attempted to mouth the lie that when lane called helen markham that lane pretended to be will fritz , the tape recording has him introducing himself as mr lane an attorney investigating the oswald case . lane promptly reminded bugliosi of the LIBEL laws and bugliosi thought better of spouting his false allegation .
he was undoubtedly a very smart man , but when it came to the jfk case his intelligence went out the window . this guy once wrote that THERE WAS NO CLEANING OF THE LIMO , he went further NO WITNESSES WHO CLAIMED THE LIMO WAS CLEANED , and further to that he said THERE WERE NO STATEMENTS IN REGARD THE LIMO BEING CLEANED . press reporters watched as the back of the limo was cleaned and they reported on it in articles in the paper . that also takes care of number 2 . i personally know of two statements in relation to the limo being cleaned , one by a nurse who said she was asked to bring a bucket of water to clean the limo , she said she would but with the commotion she forgot . the second statement was from a person who actually brought the bucket of water out . is bugliosi for real ? 22 years of research and he doesnt know this ? .
he claimed in his book that oswald lied and tried to give himeself an alibi . bugliosi said oswald claimed HE HAD EATEN LUNCH WITH JAMES JARMIN AND HAROLD NORMAN . so where did he glean this information ? well from a snippit of testimony given by will fritz WITHOUT BENEFIT OF HIS INTERROGATION NOTES . this testimony is not only inaccurate but untrue . you see fritz own interrogation notes along with other notes taken by other people show that oswald NEVER said he ate with jarmin and norman , he merely mentioned seeing them at some point , oswald was recorded several times stating that HE ATE LUNCH ALONE . didnt bugliosi know this ? , of course he did after all he cited the interrogation notes in his book . so what we have here is bugliosi with a choice , in one hand he had will fritz inaccurate testimony (that the bug knew was inaccurate ) that appeared to make oswald look like a liar , and in the other the bug had the interrogation notes proving both him and fritz WRONG . have a guess what he used in his book ? yup you guessed it WILL FRITZ INACCURATE TESTIMONY . this is LN 101 , and that is NEVER LET THE TRUTH GET IN THE WAY OF A GOOD LIE .
in LN land the truth is only relative to what the LN can earn from a lie .
@fobrien1. I saw that episode of Conspiracy Theory and Jesse Ventura OWNED Mr. Bugliosi! I later saw Bugliosi on a show called Hardball and he was debating with the guy who wrote The Devil's Chessboard and Bugliosi kept disappearing every time they went to commercial! He just can't stand the truth.
Cct .Not true he did talk about the case with Ventura which side was you on?
It's amazing how you continue to throw out your lies about Bugloshi cant pull the eyes over this guy.Cleaning of the limo nope.
We know what questions Will Fritz asked Oswald and Iswakd did say he eat lunch with 2 colored boys.
You say Buglioshi appeared on a panel accusing Lane as impersonating Will Fritz I eff ould like to see some documentation of that dont think it's TRUE. Buglisho says in his book he debated Lane 3 times guess was not recorded he says ince he was attempting to show what a fraud Lanes representation of the call with Markham was that Lane threatned to sue.You do know Lane refused to turn over this recording to the WC only when assured they would not prosecute him for he would release it .It was embarrassing how he lead Markham a lady with an eight grade education.It is true that Mark Lane introduced himself to Markham as such .But we really dint know what he said to her before the tape started do we ? If Buglisho actually said that hou can bet your ass he had good reason.
Because he wanted to be a big man I believe he acted alone in killing J .F. K. and it was possible for him to act alone
we're all now dumber for having watched this
The only person Lee's punk ass conspired with was his own reflection in the mirror. Ditto with Ruby. Conspiracy kooks can't handle the simplicity of it all.
So simple, how Oswald changed the parade route, ordered military units to stand down, made the driver slow the limo down to less than 10 mph, fired the luckiest shots in rifle history, escaped the building without anyone noticing, shoots a police officer despite being that close to not getting caught for committing the greatest murder of the twentieth century, ran into the theater without paying so he could get busted for that, and still have the composure to call himself a patsy.
So simple, how Ruby decided he wasn't about that mob life anymore, that he'd rather take revenge on Kennedy's alleged killer so Jackie wouldn't have to see him at a trial, turned the majority of the Dallas PD into a bunch of bumbling idiots, shot Oswald without an ounce of resistance from any of the 20 or so police officers in the room, and then while in jail confessed that he's apart of a larger conspiracy before dying mysteriously.
So simple. Your government figured it all out for you. Go back to sleep, America.

IMO since we're all allowed one, Oswald was what he said he was, a patsy.
Oswald owned that rifle, the bullets all came from it, why was Oswald the only depository worker to flee the assassination scene? only to pop up in a cinema, with a dead cop in his trail.
All investigations point towards Oswald.
@@Steaks652 And he was a marxist, people who are anti-police. It sounds impossible for him to be a patsy.
@Ricky Bowen that's the same point i've been arguing too
If he had delusions of grandeur which motivated him to kill JFK surely he would have looked like he was enjoying the press attention after the act…delusional and sociopathic types enjoy others getting excited and being in pain because of their actions ..and have a sense of mission accomplished.. now I’m famous and others need to come to me to get relief from their emotional pain
I think he was not supposed to get caught (and got messy with Tipper), and he realised he was caught; not a unknown himself as a patsy, but the plan was to be among the Alpha66 people.
Conspiracy loons? I think people who accept everything they are told on tv (owned by 4 corporations) are the loons.... Sheep loons.
Yep.
Your comment is correct but it highlights something else, Bugliosi talks like a typical lying lawyer, not someone who is interested in the facts. He is trying to marginalise anyone who does not swallow the lies they are fed by the government. My god does anyone believe the government any more?
first his theory here contradicts the premise of what happened. if Oswald wanted the attention the D.A. here states why did he Denie doing it. and 2nd Oswald was a marginal shooter at best yet alll the media skips that fact.
@abennett4: Your views are just that your views. Many men have been put to death in our justice system because of lame opinions such as yours. Note: You substitute evidence with your opinion and then call it fact. That is pure B.S. Provide concrete evidence not speculation. He lived in the U.S.S.R were the words from his month as to why he was arrested.
He also said he was a patsy before he was killed. On his way to the grave he was speaking the truth yet you and others don't believe.

And they had a lot of very big enemies. In fact the list of enemies and their power is terrifying to contemplate. LBJ, facing criminal charges unless his situation improved (like ghetting the presidency), Hoover who loathed the Kennedys, the CIA, threatened with dissolution by JFK after the Bay of Pigs, the mob who were apoplectic and murderous about Jack and Bobby's "betrayal" and persecution of them, Castro, out for revenge...
Because he didn't.
Thats NOT the tough question, the tough question is ""why was Oswald killed afterwards""
yes
Too shut him up , he would have spilled the beans about all the people he was connected to , his handlers in the CIA , and all the military connections, ruby , tippet the lot , that’s why he was eliminated by Jack Ruby with the help of a small percentage of the DPD .
No!..Try reading Vince's large section of his book, dealing with every aspect of Jack Rudy's life and times. You are being intellectually lazy.
Oswald always maintained that he didn't kill anyone while in the custody of Dallas PD. So even if Ruby didn't kill Oswald, like James Earl Ray, Oswald would've maintained his innocence until the day he died. The only thing Oswald would admit to was pulling a gun on the Dallas PD in The Texas Theater. When all Dallas PD wanted to do was question Oswald at that point since they didn't know exactly who he was. Hardly the response of an innocent person. Incidentally, pulling a gun on the Cops in the Texas Theater would have gotten Oswald 20 years even if he miraculously beat the wrap for JFK and Officer Tippit.
oswald to my knowledge never admitted pulling any gun on anyone .he admitted so we are told to striking an officer , mcdonald i believe . mcdonald said oswald struck him .innocent people do tend to say I AM INNOCENT .yes guilty people also .but we have a mentality here where a person starts with oswald was guilty and then takes a stance well HOW DARE HE SAY HE WAS INNOCENT . its crazy logic .
the police were not there just to question oswald , do you know how many cops turned up at the theater ? . he was never treated as anything but a guilty man .
Every one involved in the process of coverup was rewarded for their participation and silence.....
The guy hosting this was a monster actually
That's sweet. . .imagine, somebody believes the govt.
Wrong. A secret service agent named Mike Howard said he found an address book in Oswald's home and on page 17 was a title "I Will Kill'. A hit list from Oswald. An FBI agent, Nixon, Edwin Walker (who he probably did shoot) and John Connolly were listed. JFK was not. John Connolly's name had blood and a dagger in it. The other four names did not. Oswald got a honorable discharge from the Marines but that was changed to un-desirable when Oswald defected to Russia. When Oswald returned to the USA, he wanted the honorable discharge restored. The Dept. of the Navy, then headed by Connolly, would not do that. Oswald's wife said Oswald hated Connolly and Connolly was the target not JFK. It could be Oswald hit JFK in error trying to kill Connolly in the front seat. Btw, that page of the Oswald address book disappeared. Secret Service Agent Howard, who later taught classes at a community college, maintains his story. He believed Oswald wanted to kill Connolly in the front seat of the car and killed JFK. who was seated behind Connolly, in error.
Possible
God, Bugliosi loves the sound of his own voice.
And all the evidence points to Oswald as the shooter. Anyone who says otherwise is simply delusional, or hasn't spent any substantial time investigating the case.

@JimLongo1 Oswald, a poor marksman (and his marine record shows this), according to the official story was supposed to have got off 3 shots in 5 seconds with an old and absurdly inaccurate Italian carbine, shot (through a tree) several hundred feet while Kennedy's limo was turning a corner. A feat that has never been replicated even when tested by expert sharpshooters. And that one of these bullets went through Kennedy, turned in mid-air and wounded the governor of Texas - one magic bullet.
A poor marksman in the marines is still far better than your average joe. Mind you he actually shot 4 times, the first one was as kennedy turned onto Elm St, which struck a lightpole and then hit the concrete. Then the 3 other shots are history

Oswald was a marxist, JFK was a conservative, clearly the motive was political
@@stevenkeller452 Oswald was posing as a marxist. It was part of the plot. But they backstabbed him. He realized after the shooting he had been framed as the fall guy.
Bugliosi was a good and honourable man who clearly sincerely believed what he was saying. He famously 'prosecuted' Oswald in a Concocted trial on British television in the 1980s. So much evidence was corrupted, destroyed or fabricated, we may never know for certain if Oswald was one of the assassins of JFK: but with at least 51 witnesses who saw, heard or smelt gunfire in front of JFK, with ALL (!!!) the Doctors and Nurses who tried to save his life at Parkland Hospital, reporting a blow-out wound to the lower-left to mid-left of the back of JFK's skull, there was CLEARLY at least one shot from the front: and with Gerald Ford deliberately obscuring the bullet in JFK's back, and the Warren Commission hiding Jack Ruby's Mobster connections (Ruby started off as a message runner for Al Capone; Ruby had been arrested 9 times BEFORE the JFK assassination) there was CLEARLY an official gross misrepresentation (ie. lies and fraud) of the facts of the assassination.
Why he did it? "We will never know the answer to that question."
Indeed we will never know. But the fact is... Oswald IS the assassin!
If you are dishonest enough to accept magic Bullets and a mountain of other germane evidence.
We will never know the answer to that question because he didn't do it.
Police entered the depository 9 secs after the last shot, 12 seconds later the police spotted lee Oswald sitting in the 2nd story lunch room looking calm not energized, anxious or sweaty. So in that time Oswald would have to Hide his gun and run down 3 stories of stairs as fast as he could, then he would be seen in the lunch room seemingly calm and semi confused. I could go on and on but my only point is to make you think. And if that doesn't make you think I don't know what will.

What is the biggest flaw in the Warren Commission’s reasoning? Since you believe that its work was a mess why don’t you point out some facts (let’s say 3) that invalidate their conclusion that Oswald acted alone.
Further, saying that Oswald didn’t get a trial doesn’t make him innocent. There are many criminals who were never indicted. Being declared guilty by a court isn’t necessarily required to determine culpability-Oswald was, among other things, a treasonous, wife beating, cop killer. That’s fact. He’s no innocent angel.
Anyway, go ahead and point out three of the Warren Commission’s biggest mistakes. Stick to facts.
Thomas Levick

And a month before the parade gets a job at the Book Depository with the help of Ruth Paine whose entire family including her husband was connected to the CIA. No fingerprints and the gun wasn't even bought by someone named Oswald. Not to mention there was more than one gun found on the 6th floor. They pulled off a perfect Assassination but they completely botched the cover-up. "I'm just a Patsy" Yup. Exactly.
And Ruby 86'd HIM to spare Jackie the pain of a trial, right Vinnie?
Those were Ruby's own words!
Donnelly Thomas yea but ruby had lot more to say but wouldn't talk unless they moved him. They refused...therefore we will never know
according to Ruby's sister Eva (whom he visited many times that Friday and Saturday) he was unconsolable about JFK and worried about Jackie and their kids. He had a very impulsive, emotional, violent streak and a wanna-be like LHO. No conspiracy theory involving Ruby can explain why he slept through Oswald's announced transfer time of 10am Sunday morning. Had LHO been moved then Ruby would have missed him. It was only luck that the a postal worker came in to verify LHO postal box and add to the questioning of LHO that his transfer was delayed. Ruby wandered over to the police station after wiring money at the Western Union at 11:17am, just 90 seconds before the transfer. That's not a very good conspiracy by the plotters. Ruby also took his favorite dog to the Western Union and left him in the car. Would a person planning to kill LHO do this? Very, very unlikely. But the sleeping in past the transfer shows it was not planned. It was spur of the moment.
Ruby was a piece of Mobbed Up Garbage who was neck deep in the Assassination!
ZION orders
LHO was just a nut(his shaky past helps) - That is why the CIA picked him to be a PATSY. LHO was not an extreme nut to be in a window at TSBD and shoot 3 times in a roll to call the attention of the crowd below, the conspirators snipers shot only once each.

The only witnesses to claim, that day, that they saw a firearm all pointed to the Book Depository. One man thought Oswald was a secret service agent, another man and a kid saw the firearm out the window as it shot.
How about the 12 witnesses that put Oswald at the killing of Officer Tippit, not to mention him having the gun on him and trying to pull it out when being arrested? Oswald is a more flawed victim than BLM criminals like Jacob Blake.
Witness accounts have him bringing in “curtain rods”, being in the Book Depository, requesting the west side elevator gate be downed so it can be called up, leaving his wedding ring with the wife, visiting the wife on Wednesday and picking up said “curtain rods.” There is no doubt Oswald was the shooter, and by all accounts he had no friends, was a loser, did not play well with others, and therefore is one of the worst individuals imaginable to take part in a conspiracy or be a patsy.

Bugliosi didn't deal with the "conspiracy theorists" -- the derogatory term the CIA came up for every independent JFK investigator.
Instead, Bugliosi twisted the evidence he could twist while ignoring the solid evidence and all of the eyewitnesses who were murdered.
I think he must've been paid to write that CIA-scripted book, but whatever he was paid, it wasn't worth it because the book destroyed his credibility.
considering that gov. Connolly had just given Oswald a dishonorable discharge, it should be considered that Connolly was the actual target. There is your motive.
What confuses and saddens me is why someone who behaved not just honorably, but exposed himself to ridicule and ostracism by bucking the "official line" in other cases, should have taken the stance he has in this instance.
I was initially excited and spent nearly three weeks going though _Reclaiming History_ only to find that not only did it not put to rest my doubts or introduce anything of substance, but that its "defense of the WC's findings and Dallas Police Department's actions consisted mainly of hand waving _ad homonym_ and insults. Whatever his reasons were, I just find it terribly sad.

Bugliosi is speculating about why Oswald killed Kennedy. He's not talking about conspiracy theories. And he gets it right in the end when he says "And we're never going to know the answer to that question." That is the best answer any intelligent person can ever give with what we know about that tragic day.
Keith William MacHendry What's your proof?

I just saw his book is an 11 hour audio book on TH-cam now. I dare to you to binge "read" that in one day.
Global Jay spelling and grammar are new to you🙄
Since the latest file release has shown Oswald to be a CIA operative I wonder what your intelligent man has to say now?🤨
New to him? That comment makes you look alike a snarky, insufferable snot, and you're too clueless to realize that in advance.
Who you gonna believe Bugliosi or tons of good witnesses who say other wise? It sure as hell isn't Bugliosi, Posner etc.
He didn't kill JFK
Donald Duck and the CIA did it.
oswald did not kill kennedy
It certainly was NOT proven that he did, in a court, beyond all reasonable doubt

this should clear a lot of things up
@@Autshot20 if you look at the direction of the bullet that hit jfk it came from the opposite direction from where the bullet came from
In 1979 the Hose Committee on Assassinations determined that there were more than one shooter. Oswald said, "I'm a patsy." The window of the limousine was shot out and replaced.
The HSCA stated there was a high probability of a second shooter. They also stated LHO fired the first 3 shots from the southeast corner window of the sixth floor of the TSBD, 2 of which hit Kennedy and caused his death. The speculated second shooter supposedly fired a fourth shot that missed Kennedy.
@@ablearcher4610 How convenient. So there was a conspiracy, but it doesn't matter because the other shooter was a poor marksman? Seriously?
Two out of three wrong!
Um...try to catch up...the HSCA conclusion of a probable fourth shot/shooter, has been debunked for many years now!
This guy was the best Oswald and ruby had the same motive they wanted to be somebody no conspiracy here
+Randy Harris You need your head examined. You ask us to trust an investigation controlled by Hoover, Dulles and LBJ (three proven abusers of power, blackmailers etc... and haters of JFK.) JFK had fired one of these men and intended to get the other two out of office come 64. Bugliosi was known to be a crooked lawyer and his boat anchor of a book is ridiculous to anybody who knows this case. Even Dallas Chief of police Curry later said "we have nothing placing Oswald in that window with that rifle" and two honest federal agents at the autopsy call the magic bullet a lie.
There is more to it than that. Why would Oswald completely deny it when he was caught? Also jack ruby was in the mafia and he said to a police officer “I’m here to see the fireworks” or something along the lines of that, just minutes before Kennedy was killed. There’s something that they are lying about.
Yeah, that's why Oswald denied that he killed JFK and Tippet.. Because he wanted to be Famous for Denying the Murder of the President and a Police Officer!! Sounds stupid enough..
@@genericchannel5217 Just read a whole chapter on Jack Ruby he was not in the mafia. I will tell you what Ruby was he was a hustler.Read his.brothers WC testimony as I just did if you think he was in the mafia.As far as Oswald is concerned his defense mechanism set in.He wanted to feast in the glory fir a while hence the one fisted salute.Its so damn obvious every law enforcement official in Dalkas knew it why dont you?
@@ENDTIMEsVideoLibrary What sounds stupid is your explanation.When Oswald got caught his defense mechanism set in.He surely did not want to die it was a 100 percent certainty that his sentence would have been death.Plus he wanted to bast in the glory hence the one fisted defiant salute.Its so damn obvious. Every law enforcement office in Dallas knew Oswald was quilty within 24 hrs why dont you?
I watched the video and read the comments. If you just shot a major thorn in your side ,had to hid the murder rifle, run down 3 flights of stairs , put coins in the coke machine ,get your soda pop the top and calmly drink some of the soda, well I'd be so nervous I'd choke on the soda for sure if I could even manage to put the coins into the machine. The run down the stairs would make me out of breath and add to my choking on the soda. If Oswald had this plan to kill JFK and now he did execute the plan , I think he'd be Pumped!! His heart rate would give him away. Everyone were all over the place, it's lunch time ,the president was just murdered , why didn't he just slip out the door and leave? Instead he is calm unconserned and just going about lunch and all of a sudden being questioned. One video say the guys looking in the 6 the floor for the not so we'll hidden rifle ,found the rifle there. Then another says Oswald took the rifle to the Texas theater and shot the officer with the rifle. Then another says they found the rifle in the theater. Then another says Oswald shot Officer Tippit with a hand gun. Either Oswald had guns and rifle hidden all over Dallas Texas or some ones lying to us. Oswald was at his rented room and shooting Tippit at about the same time. He's upstairs shooting JFK or downstairs eating lunch. He can't be so many places at once. Anyone can lie. And a lawyer shud never be given any credit for telling the truth. Oh please!! Casey Anthony!!!! Again oh please Jody Arias!!! This lawyer has preformed so many times he can't recognize the truth from his own made up crap to get a client off or convict some poor person. If Oswald did it wouldn't he stink just like a gun that had been fired by him. Don't you get some smell on you like when someone smokes pot or cigarettes?? That would be hard to mistake. Wouldn't it be easy to break into his room take his rifle and plant it in the 6 the floor. Some videos make him out to be brilliant others say not quite so smart, maybe a looser. I think he might have had a double and a plan was hatched.
Garbage time!
LHO was a complex person and a lot of things he did were paradoxical. He ended up changing history single-handedly and many people just won't accept that. The ones who said there was a conspiracy also see conspiracies in many other events. It's a warped worldview, but reinforced by fictional films like JFK (which wasn't even about JFK).
when Lee heard the gun shot he knew he was a patsy and ran home to get a gun then ran around aimlessly on the streets of Dallas looking for the ok corral..
It appears not exactly aimlessly. Speculation is he would go to meet Alpha66 members at a house just off a (transfer) bus route. Then would have gained acceptance of the group and continued to Cuba. This way he gets out of the US (again).
Answers a lot of questions for me actually.
Yes Magic Bullets,neurospasms,jet effects now sound so reasonable! Tons of mysterious deaths,but hey The Govt. is always right in this case. and every suspicious thing is just coincidence...according to this cretin.

Oswald didn't assassinate JFK. Oswald was in the second floor lunchroom when the motorcade drove by the TSBD.
You saw him? Did he have the rice or the potatoes?
AND HE TESTED NEGATIVE FOR POWDER BURNS !
What really bothers me about Vincent Bugliosi is the fact that he was deputy district attorney in LA from 1964-1972 and therefore should have investigated the Robert Kennedy assassination rather than the JFK assassination. (If one would simply look into the RFK autopsy, performed by Dr. Thomas Noguchi, and read the Dr's report and conclusions, you will understand my concern.)
So are you saying there was more to it than just Sirhan Sirhan? Who was the infamous lady in the polka dot dress? Is there much controversy surrounding RFK's death?
@@pentameteriamb6196 "Is there much controversy surrounding RFK's death?" That is a loaded question, pun intended.
Just for starters: Sirhan's revolver held a maximum load of 8 bullets.......however an audio recording of the shooting reveals 13 or so shots fired. Eye and ear witness: Donald Schulman, then an employee of CBS News, told the police that he had seen one of the security guards present also fire his weapon.
Thomas Noguchi performed what has been deemed the most perfect autopsy in American history due to the attention to detail and multiple expert observers present. Present at the autopsy were Dr. Noguchi, Neurosurgical Team, Hospital Staff Pathologist, and consultants from the Armed Forces institute of Pathology as well as Forensic and medical photographers.
The Coroner concluded the following:
The Senator was shot at 4 times from behind his body.
One shot missed him and passed through his jacket shoulder
Three shots hit RFK.
The Senator was shot at 4 times from behind his body.
Wound #1 “The fatal shot”: Direction from Right to Left, slightly to front and upwards. No exit. Entered behind right ear. The bullet was recovered in fragments only and could not be matched due to fragmentation.
Wound #2: “Through and Through” of right shoulder, with no deflection within the body - it went in a clean line from entering the back, exiting the front. The direction was Right to Left, back to front and upward. The bullet was not recovered. There were gun powder granules on the dermis.
Wound #3: The “neck bullet”. This bullet entered Just below Wound #2 entry, entering near the shoulder blade (scapula). A“ deformed” .22 caliber bullet was recovered at the 6th Cervical vertebra (neck/spine). Direction Right to Left, back to front and upward. The bullet is marked TN31 by Coroner Noguchi. .
Powder residue was found with heat and blast effects visible
Every single witness to Sirhan shooting in the pantry placed the muzzle of the gun, in Sirhan’s outstretched arm, no closer than 1.5 feet in front of RFK.
Coroner Thomas Noguchi has consistently stated publicly that he did not determine that Sirhan Sirhan shot Senator Kennedy. During Grand Jury testimony he testified that his preliminary estimate was the muzzle of the gun was only 1-3 inches from RFK. Later he confirmed this with tests. (Coroner's Report p. 40). After the Grand Jury testimony, the District Attorney rushed up to Noguchi and asked if he meant“ feet”, not “inches”. Noguchi answered “My goodness, it’s an inch, not feet, because of the black powder behind the ear.”[1]
The fact that District Attorney John Miner asked this of Noguchi on the day of the Grand Jury hearing indicates he knew there was a serious discrepancy between what the witnesses were saying about where Sirhan was positioned and the scientific findings of the Coroner.

Who taught you how to spell peddle ?
Jim Garrison unfortunately had no case. HE was the lone nut ;-p
Are you also on gov pay? Spouting out the same idiotic comment over and over again?
Here's a guy that takes the official story and then tries to make it make sense using scientific techniques. He assumes the investigation was thorough and they got their man. He probably dismisses "conspiracy theories" out of hand.
Science will be proved over and over again…
I think partly it was opportunity, but mostly because he really believed he could get away with it.
Yeah, I've gotten away with stuff I should not have... the other day I used a laundromat dryer and thought of cleaning the lint filter after, but said "screw it" and walked out.
Is it possible that there were two men in the "sniper's nest" in the same time frame, and that the other man fired the shots while Oswald was sipping his Coke waiting for his phone call? I recall reading that a witness saw a brown-skinned man in the window, and another witness described a heavy-set man in a brown coat. DID Lee Harvey Oswald fire the first two shots and a second shooter fire the "kill shot" ? Lee Harvey Oswald was NOT a totally innocent man---he DID try to shoot and kill retired General Edwin Walker in April 1963, and he DID shoot and kill Dallas Police Officer J.D. Tippit......And he DID try to "resist arrest" and struggled with police at the theater but his pistol jammed.
The paraffin test run by the DPD came out negative. Oswald did not fire a gun that day. He was just the fall guy.
@@piscesman54 If you check the real test,it shows he did when tested,again,that damn movie,plus the trajectory can only come from that window…
@@piscesman54 are you sure?
@@shanet5604 That was simply an impossible shot. Nobody was able to ever replicate it, let alone go through muscle and bone tissue of two different people and the seat of a car. That is the most boldfaced fraud ever to have been foisted upon the American people. In the rest of the world, almost nobody believes it.
Is it possible, yes and likely. Governor Connally said he heard a shot turned to look then turning back around was hit (did not hear that shot) and heard the 3rd shot. The shots occurred in too rapid of succession to be one shooter.
Oswald Killed Kennedy no doubt however The Manson Analogy is false. Manson specifically targeted the Tate house because he had been there before and wanted revenge against the record producer who turned him down. He did not realize when he sent his people there that different people were now living there. He then did the La bianca murders to throw the police off the track and make them think the killings were random. Manson was very sinister. Oswald turned political assassin at one point in early 1963. He ordered the guns and attempted to kill General Walker. He believed himself to be a revolutionary. He was itching to do a dramatic act. His life was a total failure, no one took him seriously. This was not about Oswald hating Kennedy, it was about Oswald needing to do an act......... when the president happened to pass in front of his window......... his moment arrived. He had been dreaming of such a moment.....his guns were ready. This was a crime of opportunity and when you look at Oswald's entire life it's clear that he was on a collision course with disaster. He screwed us all......left two families fatherless and changed the history of this country. This and the killing of Lincoln are the most significant crimes in American History.
"Oswald turned political assassin at one point in early 1963" jay
is this your reasoning for believing he shot jfk ? . if its your sole reason then there is a fatal flaw in it THERE IS NO EVIDENCE AT ALL THAT HE FIRED AT GENERAL WALKER . and in fact there is evidence / witnesses to two men being there .
all the warren commission ever had was the so called walker note THAT DOESNT EVEN MENTION WALKER , its un dated and doesnt even mention any crime , and they had the word of marina oswald . lets read what the warren commisson and hsca said about marina
One of the Commission’s attorneys, Norman Redlich, wrote in a memo to J. Lee Rankin that
“neither you nor I have any desire to smear the reputation of any individual. We cannot ignore, however, that Marina Oswald has repeatedly lied to the [Secret] Service, the FBI, and this Commission on matters which are of vital concern to the people of this country and the world” (HSCA Report, appendix vol.11, p.126).
Redlich expanded on this when testifying before the HSCA:
“She may not have told the truth in connection with the attempted killing of General Walker. … I gave to Mr Rankin a lengthy document. … I indicated the testimony that she had given, the instances where it was in conflict”
"He ordered the guns and attempted to kill General Walker. He believed himself to be a revolutionary. He was itching to do a dramatic act. His life was a total failure, no one took him seriously. This was not about Oswald hating Kennedy, it was about Oswald needing to do an act......... when the president happened to pass in front of his window......... his moment arrived. He had been dreaming of such a moment.....his guns were ready. This was a crime of opportunity and when you look at Oswald's entire life it's clear that he was on a collision course with disaster. He screwed us all......left two families fatherless and changed the history of this country." jay
and your proof of all the above IS ? .
by the way the lincoln killing was a conspiracy and is acknowledged as such EVEN THO only one man did the shooting .
The proof in this case is perhaps the most overwhelming proof of any case ever. To overwhelming to list...no doubt Oswald to the shot at walker and no doubt Oswald acted alone. Oswald worked with nobody. The Warren Commission did not get everything right but they got the conclusion spot on. Oswald.
jay herzog the true motive for the manson killings will never come to light it seems....yet for an insight into what was the true motive, look into manson's interview with ronald reagan jr....and then overlay that with whats happening in hollywood right now.....
"The proof in this case is perhaps the most overwhelming proof of any case ever. To overwhelming to list" jay herzog
meaning you cant provide any irrefutable proof , so it was probably very wise of you not to try .
"no doubt Oswald to the shot at walker" jay herzog
but your just unable and unwilling to try to prove that ? , as i said above you were wise not to try .
No, the motive for the Manson murders came to light way before the interview, back in the 1960's. It was to cause helter skelter. It had to start somewhere, so Terry Melcher's house served a second purpose, revenge for an old grudge. Same with the La Bianca's house. Manson had been at a party next door to theirs, and the La Bianca's complained about the noise.
i hate that oswlad guy.
