A Few of the Problems with the Case Against Oswald

[Lance Payette]

O'Toole was closely affiliated with the CT-oriented Committee to Investigate Assassinations. At the Committee's conference in 1973, he was falsely billed as "Former CIA Agent." From the CIA itself, "He was employed as a Digital Computer Systems Analyst in March 1966. He resigned 24 January 1969 from a position as a Research Officer, GS-14, ORD/DDS&T" (Office of Research and Development, Directorate of Science and Technology").

You will also see O'Toole referred to as "chief of the CIA problem analysis branch" and "former CIA bureau chief," which he was not.

And on it goes.

Gee, where are MTG and all the MTG lemmings? This is why taking on MTG and the lemmings ain't worth the effort. They don't miss a beat. They just move on to the next factoid. He'll be citing "FBI agent" O'Toole tomorrow and the next day.

If anyone wants to read the best response to the case against Oswald ever written to date, it is available free of charge online. It is Barry Krusch's 2012 book Impossible: The Case Against Lee Harvey Oswald. The book is available for free viewing and download here:

The problems with the case against Oswald that I discuss in the OP are literally the tip of the iceberg. Krusch picks apart the so-called "evidence" against Oswald piece by piece in exhaustive detail. The book was originally published in three volumes, but the online version contains all three volumes in one PDF (totaling 1,072 pages).

One of Krusch's most important chapters is his chapter on the photographic evidence that someone was moving boxes in the sixth-floor window within 2 minutes after the shooting when Oswald could not have been there (volume 1, pp. 21-52). This was also the conclusion of the HSCA's photographic experts: "There is an apparent rearranging of boxes within two minutes after the last shot was fired at President Kennedy" (6 HSCA 109; see also 6 HSCA 109-115 and 4 HSCA 422-423). Krusch proves with additional photographic evidence and analysis that the HSCA was correct on this crucial point.

Usual MTG crap. In the same photo, someone also took Harold Norman and placed him somewhere else.

CTs always try to dismiss evidence rather than try to explain it. Since there is no evidence to support their beliefs, that's all they can do.

That George O'Toole thing?

"Never mind."

The "moving boxes" thing is one of MTG's pet canards. He beats it like a drum. Dale Myers addressed it way back in 1998 in responding to MTG at McAdams' forum:

Of course, computer technology available today (even at the desktop level) was not available in 1978 when these studies were done. Today,however, the position of a photographer can easily be calculated within a few feet by triangulating three fixed points visible in any two dimensional photograph.(see: http://www.jfkfiles.com for a complete description of 3D techniques and triangulation) ... My computer work shows beyond any doubt that the boxes in the Dillard and Powell photographs are in an identical arrangement. In addition, further renderings show that CE715 & CE716, as well as the footage shot by Tom Alyea, show a configuration that matches those seen in the Dillard and Powell photographs. These are the only images showing the original box configuration.

All MTG is doing, you can hopefully see, is assembling CT-oriented factoids as though they were evidence and there were no differing opinions or contrary evidence. It's quite ludicrous, especially on a JFKA forum where most participants are not neophytes.
