You do realize that if Truly was alive today he'd be 118 years old and Shelley would be 99 years old!
Both men survived decades after the event and lived into their 70's, but did you expect the geriatric Death Squad to break into their nursing homes and silence them? ROFL!

Far from missing my point, John, you are the one who understood it. Yes, I am sufficiently well-informed to know that Michael Paine, Truly and Shelley are deceased. The point being the one you recognize: they, and umpteen others who figure prominently in Conspiracy World, lived long after the JFKA. Truly died in 1985, Shelley in 1996 and Paine in 2018. As I asked in another thread, what sense does it make for Ruth Paine to still be alive at 92, having been a veritable fount of interviews and appearances for the past six decades? She could be trusted but Lee Bowers and Dorothy Kilgallen had to be eliminated? Really? For Ruth to still be alive makes no sense AT ALL if you believe that a myriad of mostly bit players were "mysteriously rubbed out" because they "knew too much." It's absolutely classic Conspiracy Logic - i.e., it Makes No Sense Whatsoever unless one locked into the bizarre mindset of Conspiracy Think.
