Important Disclosure about William King Harvey in Recently Released Document

[Tom Graves]

Shaw had a position in an international trade mart that would allow him to use that facility to move goods or documents, and have eyes and ears in a lot of places.

It may be the CIA did not spend its money wisely---after all, they are not a private-sector company, and thus had to get a measurable return on its investment.

In the military and intel worlds, a lot of people are paid to "stand and wait." In case they are some day needed. Some people are reimbursed based on their status and potential value, and perhaps not actual worth.

If a CIA historian in a prepared report---not a memo, or causal conversation---referred to anyone as a "highly paid contract source," and never retracted the statement, I would consider that to be a true statement.

The fact that the CIA historian's statement was made regarding an individual who had, very publicly, been prosecuted for the JFKA makes its doubly unlikely that the "highly paid contract source" description of Shaw is in error.

The probable truth that Shaw was in fact a "highly paid contract source" hardly proves the JFKA was perped by the CIA, or even that there was a JFKAC. My take is Shaw had nothing to do with the JFKA.

Perhaps Shaw was asked to figure out who was LHO, someone who would be reasonably regarded as a suspect character. Maybe Shaw never even met LHO---but Shaw was still a highly paid contract source.

CT'ers and LN'ers both tend to regard evidence they do not like as "faked" or in error. Usually CT'ers, but it can go both ways.

Pardon my collegiality.

I only eat low-fructose beans!

The frequency of your emissions argues otherwise.

Given our lack of geographic propinquity, perhaps the flatulence that so completely envelops you has a more proximate origin.

People in your neck of the woods have told me otherwise.
