Did Oswald really beat his wife?

[Richard Rubio]

Bruises as well. Are those lies?

[Joffrey van de Wiel]

I have never seen any evidence that Oswald beat his wife: no police reports of officers responding to domestic violence, no doctor's or dentist's reports, nor hospital records. No photograph of a bruised, 'black and blue' Marina.

All there is is hearsay and Marina's own questionable stories.

And for some reason, Marina no longer believes her dead husband shot anybody, so again she has changed her story. Goodbye credibility.

Can you quote one person who saw her with a bruise on an area where she could have been hit by LHO?

Matt Grantham asked on page 3

 I am not clear  whether witnesses saw injuries on Marina If so, how many?

 I think we are nearing the point where this question is answered by the lack of answers

She said conspiracy theories influenced her.

And her daughter June has said that she herself hasn't decided one way or the other, just wants conclusive proof either way.

Nobody wants to believe that their husband or father is a murderer.

There was some sort of commotion over at the apartment building they lived at and some of the Russian exile community noted it also. So, it wasn't just Marina who said this. 

[Bill Chapman]

On top of Bill's fine post, in the end, about every human being has lied. It'd be difficult to find one who hasn't to be pinning Marina down on this. At least, I know I have.  The situation must have dumbfounded her as well.

None of the investigative bodies were in the business of calling people liars. They were tasked with finding the facts of the case, not trying the case in a court of law.

Marina has stated that she held back somewhat, and also admitted to telling (what turned out to be temporary) falsehoods.

LEE HARVEY'S OLDEST

JUNE OSWALD

As America's obsession with her father goes on, a daughter tries to set the record straight.

By Steve Salerno

From The New York Times Magazine

April 30, 1995.

"But you have to understand that, aside from what role he had in the assassination, there's the issue of what role he had in our family. I know that in my life, Lee wasn't a good man. He wasn't much of a husband, he wasn't much of a father. He beat my mother. There were times when we didn't have milk to drink. We lived in poor housing or were taken in by others. So if I'm able to be detached or seem cold and unemotional about it, it's because I look at Lee in those terms."
