That Bucket Alongside the JFK Limo At Parkland = An Altered Crime Scene

[Lance Payette]

At this page, Vince Palamara - who KNOWS MORE ABOUT THE SECRET SERVICE'S ROLE IN THE COVER-UP THAN ANYONE ON EARTH - has an entire series of quotes PROVING that the bucket may or may not have been a "stainless steel hospital bucket" and that the back seat of the limousine may or may not have been scrubbed down. Just do a "Find on Page" for "bucket" and you will be enthralled by what may or may not have occurred. This clinches it, or maybe not.

I'm kind of carving out my own specialized niche in JFKA research, just in case you can't tell. I will be presenting at future JFKA conferences as "The acknowledged expert on all things bucket-related."

Here we have a photo of a bucket - THE bucket, enquiring minds want to know? - in Trauma Room One at Parkland. The caption says this is the bucket "used by Secret Service agent Samuel Kinney to clean up the back seat of limousine." Which he then took into Trauma Room One because "there might be something in the soapy mess the docs can use to patch up the boss." Ya think?

(Further research reveals that such buckets are called "kick buckets" in medical parlance, although we probably don't want to know why. You can still buy them from medical supply houses just to give the replica of Trauma Room One you created in your spare bedroom those little touches of authenticity that make all the difference. Jackie herself is reported to have said "Much as I appreciate the sentiment, a replica of Trauma Room One without a kick bucket is simply beyond the pale.")

I tell ya, the cover-up artists at the Sixth Floor Museum are just bastards. Here they have posted a photo of the limo with the trunk open and the top off. Next we have the same shot with the top on - AND THERE SITS THE BUCKET, the clear but obviously false implication being that Mr. Bucket in fact contained the bolts and screws and whatnot by which Mr. Top was attached, as has long been claimed by those responsible for the cover-up. If this were not nefarious enough, keen-eyed observers will note that said bucket is being carefully guarded (well, not all that carefully - but play along, willya?) by an Imposter Cop who has only one hand visible! I can think of no possibility other than that he is shielding his other hand from view because it has - yes! yes! - a Glove on it! Mr. Bucket is in fact in the care and custody of One Glove Imposter Haygood Bogus Cop Guy!!! The mind simply boggles - boggles, I tell you!

Well, this clinches it: apparently, the cover-up is so watertight that images from the Sixth Floor Museum CANNOT BE POSTED HERE! But, fortunately, you can view them here, although you may end up as a JFKA Mystery Death if you do so more than once:

Here's a different photo of the trunk open and the top being attached, with Mr. Bucket being more-or-less carefully guarded by a No Gloves Imposter Cop Guy:

   Scrub Bucket vs Kick Bucket? As you can see, the Scrub Bucket on the ground next to the JFK Limo does NOT have a top. Why? To permit easily/repeatedly plunging a sponge or mop into it. The pictured bucket inside the Trauma Room has a top. Sanitation issue.

Acknowledged bucket expert Dr. Payette must say that he does not see a top on the bucket - scrub or kick, as the case may be - in Trauma Room One. Dr. Payette sees a handle, but not a top. You may be correct, however, inasmuch as Agent Kinney is reported to have shrieked at a nurse, "Not a kick bucket, you witless bimbo! I want a scrub bucket and three cans of Ajax cleanser NOW!!!" The poor woman burst into tears and resigned.

Actually, NONE of the kick buckets that Dr. Payette has inspected has a top, to wit: https://www.alimed.com/collections/kick-buckets?srsltid=AfmBOormn9JKXOrdGiiCFT8sQxi9sYL20Ok-kbkqpmedFUtIdOxPBuPs. Many do have wheels, however, advertised as "especially useful in outdoor use when cleaning up assassination scenes and related uses."

I don't know when I've had this much fun on a thread! If folks wonder how I can possibly be this bored, I can relate that the plumbers are now on the FOURTH day of what was supposed to be a ONE day bathroom remodel. I'm glad my wife isn't here, because the cats are already asking if I could possibly sleep outside until the shower is available.
