Title: Henry Wade- 'Token' Dallas D.A.
Post by: Jerry Freeman on July 19, 2018, 05:34:51 PM
I never understood why District Attorney Henry Wade was called as a witness to testify before the Commission. He didn't witness anything.
He wasn't a witness to the assassination...Tippits murder..Oswald's arrest...Oswald's line-ups at the DPD..he did not interrogate Oswald or anyone connected with Oswald...Marina, the Paines...no one.

However...Henry Wade stood as the judge, jury, and chief prosecutor [or persecutor really] of Lee Harvey Oswald based on his sole discernment of what must be.

Quote
.....only two hours after Jack Ruby had disposed of Oswald in the basement of Dallas Police Headquarters, the case against him was declared ?closed? by Police Chief Jesse Curry and by District Attorney Henry Wade who boasted that he had ?sent men to the electric chair with less evidence.? That same evening, in a televised press conference whose transcript will stand forever in the international annals of justice as an example of fantastic irresponsibility, Wade spoke the final word for the Dallas authorities: ?I would say that without any doubt he [Oswald] is the killer . . . there is no question that he [Oswald] was the killer of President Kennedy . . .

Scary huh?
Quote
Mr. RANKIN. By "he" you mean----
Mr. WADE. Ruby, Jack Ruby.
... Ruby ran up to me and he said, "Hi Henry" he yelled real loud. he yelled. "Hi, Henry," and put his hand to shake hands with me and I shook hands with him. And he said, "Don't you know me?" And I am trying to figure out whether I did or not. And he said, "I am Jack Ruby, I run the Vegas Club." And I said, "What are you doing in here?" It was in the basement of the city hall. He said, "I know all these fellows." Just shook his hand and said, "I know all these fellows." I still didn't know whether he was talking about the press or police all the time, but he shook his hands kind of like that and left me and I was trying to get out of the place which was rather crowded, and if you are familiar with that basement, and I was trying to get out of that hall. And here I heard someone call "Henry Wade wanted on the phone," this was about 1 o'clock in the morning or about 1 o'clock in the morning, and I gradually get around to the phone there, one of the police phones, and as I get there it is Jack Ruby, and station KLIF in Dallas on the phone. You see, he had gone there, this came out in the trial, that he had gone over there and called KLIF and said Henry Wade is down there, I will get you an interview with him.
Mr. RANKIN. Who is this?
Mr. WADE. KLIF is the name of the radio station.
You see, I didn't know a thing, and I just picked up the phone and they said this is so and so at KLIF and started asking questions.
But that came out in the trial.
But to show that he was trying to be kind of the type of person who was wanting to think he was important, you know.
Mr. RANKIN. Did you give him an interview over the telephone to KLIF? .....

Mr. DULLES. Could I ask a question?
Mr. WADE. Yes, sir.

(Discussion off the record.)

Wade essentially testified as to what everybody else reported to him.
This is typical of the Warren Commission's zeal to amass a voluminous report of hearings and exhibits. For the most part, too much of it was spin that had too little to do with the assassination.

He spent the day, he says, with his old buddy J.B. Connally, the  Governor of Texas.

Quote
Mr. WADE. The Sheriff told me, he said, "Don't say nothing about it, but they have got a good suspect," talking about the Dallas Police.
He didn't have him there. John Connally, you know, was shot also--and he was, he used to be a roommate of mine in the Navy and we were good friends, and are now--and the first thing I did then was went out to the hospital to see how he was getting along.

I must have stayed out there until about 5 o'clock, and in case you all don't know or understand one thing, it has never been my policy to make any investigations out of my office of murders or anything else for that matter. We leave that entirely to the police agency.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you have a reason for that?
Mr. WADE. That is the way it is set up down there.

Mr Wade's #1 hatchet man Assistant District Attorney William F.  'Bill' Alexander did not testify for the Warren Commission and yet he was a witness and on the scene at critical events on the day of the assassination.
 

 
Quote
There was something very peculiar going on when a ticket cashier 3 miles away from the crime scene could call the police at a moment when the phone lines to the Dallas Police must have been overloaded, only to have them send between 20-30 cops including the second assistant D.A. Bill Alexander to the movie theater because a suspicious person walked in without paying for a ticket. Especially when the police modus operandi was totally different as they arrested three hobos in the railroad yard close to Elm Street at approximately the same time. That arrest was handled by two police officers that behaved extremely casual.

Who was present at the locations of the assassination in Dealey Plaza..the Tippit murder scene..the arrest at the Texas Theater...the Oswald rooming house...the Paine residence...and the execution of Oswald !!! Aynesworth was also not called as a witness to the Warren Commission and yet it might seem that he witnessed everything.
Whitewash- was their only client.

Quote
Mr. RANKIN. Have you supplied to the Commission all the information that you have or has come to your attention with regard to the assassination of the President?
Mr. WADE. I don't know of anything. As far as I know, I have. I never did get any information on the assassination of the President. I requested them to send it up here to begin with.

 If Wade "didn't know anything"...What was he doing there?

According to Wade...Oswald had a map showing the exact trajectory that his bullet would take.........
A guy 'behaving strangely' is what brought an army of lawmen to the theater!
Greasy chicken fingerprints were left on the rifle.

Doug Mulder came after the JFK case of course but as a favorite of Wade his record is worth taking a look at.
What do you think you'd have to do to secure convinctions in order to be a favourite of Wade's?
Whatever it takes.

As an innocent man I think I'd have a good chance at justice against Bugliosi but with Mulder you'd have to get religious real quick.

When Henry Wade Executed an Innocent Man
https://www.dmagazine.com/publications/d-magazine/2016/may/henry-wade-executed-innocent-man/

When asked "Did you know Jack Ruby" Henry Wade lied. He lied to reporters..he lied to the press..he lied to the Warren Commission... In fact, his brother Robert Ney Wade [also an attorney] and Jack Ruby were good friends. Ney Wade and Tom Howard [Ruby's lawyer] were partners. Want to know how/why Wade got away with it? Clue--LBJ JEH.

Wade was told the evidence.  He believed Oswald was guilty.  He said so to the press.  Big deal.  What difference does any of that make now? Most investigators these days will not discuss the evidence in an ongoing case for good reason.  This was a unique circumstance in another era.  Wade would have been better suited to have said nothing.  He made some factual mistakes that CTers cling to in desperation until this day.  He was, however, trying to be transparent about the investigation because it was a matter of national importance.  That is the irony.  In an effort to be transparent in their investigation and treatment of Oswald, the DPD inadvertently became the source of many conspiracy myths and ultimately put Oswald's life at risk by allowing a press circus to develop.  No one can seriously argue that allowing Oswald to freely interact with the press after his arrest is consistent with a desire to silence him.  It's laughable to turn this on its head.  If there was some type of conspiracy to frame and silence Oswald, they kill him before his arrest or throw him in jail with no access to the press where they find him dead the next day from a suicide.  Case closed.  Instead they parade him around all weekend and allow the press to question him.   Then recruit someone to murder him on national TV who is willing to go to jail for the rest of his life (and who has to be kept silent until he dies).  Ridiculous.

 Thank you for the links to the articles ...   Unfortunately they do nothing but add to the confused tale, although i'm sure that was not the intent of the authors.   

I'd love to debate the article point by point but there is  so much information and DISINFORMATION in the article that it would take months to analyze the article point by point.

Here's a simple example of what I'm referring to......   Do you see anything wrong with this account of Truly and Baker's dash through the building?

"We ran to the freight elevators in the back of the building because the front elevators do not go beyond the fourth floor, but the two freight cars had both been left somewhere up in the top floors and we took the stairs, the officer ahead of me. When I reached the second-floor landing, the officer was already at the open door of the lunchroom, some twenty or twenty-five feet away. No, I couldn’t tell you exactly how much time it took, all this, but it wasn’t long . . .”

Henry Wade, as the Dallas County DA, defended the anti-abortion laws of Dallas County. It was Roe (Norma McCorvey) - who wanted an abortion and who challenged the law outlawing abortion versus Wade, the DA who was defending that law.

I have absolutely no idea as to how you think Wade was supporting abortion. But then I have no idea what you say on anything else either.

The secret government arranged for the case to go to Wade knowing he would lose it through ineptness or could be "persuaded" to purposely lose it?

A bit far for me. In Netfilk's "The Confession Killer", the two Texas Rangers handling Henry Lee Lucas did some unusual things, such as supposedly giving Lucas some hints so he could "confess" to visiting law enforcement eager to close cold cases around the United States. They eventually got the count up to 600 murders. Lucas told a Japanese film crew given special access that he had done a few in Japan, traveling there by car.

The District Attorney of McLennan County in Waco, Vic Feazell, questioned the "closing" of a case in Waco, based on a Lucas "confession". As a consequence, the Texas Dept. of Public Safety (in charge of the Rangers) and Dallas TV-station WFAA launched a campaign to discredit Feazell.

R U serious? Henry Wade went out of his way to make up claims of evidence that did not exist at all.
"Finger prints on the rifle" ..."A map showing the assassination plan"...Claiming that "Oswald must have been planning the assassination for weeks or even months"-- based on nothing at all. But, this was Wade's method of operation.
He sent a lot of innocent guys to prison.

Southern Democrats were the slave holders of the previous century. The Klan was Southern Democrat. The Great Society was political in order to gain black voters.

Is there any evidence that the Democratic Party, as an institution and as policy, founded the Klan? Andrew Johnson, Lincoln's Vice-President, was a Southern Democrat. Surely he would have let the Klan go unchallenged but the Klan's first incarnation appears to have faded and become almost inconsequential by the end of Johnson's term.

Certainly there were Democrats in the Klan but also Republicans opposed to blacks given more freedom and rights. Lincoln himself would have considered not freeing slaves if it preserved the union and he envisioned colonization for freed blacks.

Even if Southern Democrats, as an official party, did found the Klan more than 150 years ago, what does that have to do with the modern Democratic Party, the party of diversity and inclusion? More relevant would be the modern Republican Party's re-energizing and broadening of the party's more-recent Southern strategy.

Hoover reportedly hunted down and threatened anyone who made insinuations about his sexuality.

Pornography for blackmail---Under Hoover, agents were directed to seize all pornographic materials uncovered in their investigations and forward them to Hoover personally.[114] He kept a large collection, possibly the world's largest,[115] of films, photographs, and written materials, with particular emphasis on nude photos of celebrities. Hoover reportedly used these for his own titillation, as well as holding them for blackmail purposes.[116][117]

In his biography Official and Confidential: The Secret Life of J. Edgar Hoover (1993), journalist Anthony Summers quoted "society divorcee" Susan Rosenstiel as claiming to have seen Hoover engaging in cross-dressing in the 1950s, at all-male parties.[118][119]

Summers alleged the Mafia had blackmail material on Hoover, which made Hoover reluctant to pursue organized crime aggressively. According to Summers, organized crime figures Meyer Lansky and Frank Costello obtained photos of Hoover's alleged homosexual activity with Tolson and used them to ensure that the FBI did not target their illegal activities.[120] Additionally, Summers claimed that Hoover was friends with Billy Byars, Jr., an alleged child pornographer and producer of the film The Genesis Children.[121]

That's tortured "logic" even for you.

John you really need to learn how the corrupt bastards like Hoover and Wade operated....  They were in favor of legal abortions because they saw it as a way of limiting the birthrate of Negros.

When Henry Wade Executed an Innocent Man
https://www.dmagazine.com/publications/d-magazine/2016/may/henry-wade-executed-innocent-man/

When asked "Did you know Jack Ruby" Henry Wade lied. He lied to reporters..he lied to the press..he lied to the Warren Commission... In fact, his brother Robert Ney Wade [also an attorney] and Jack Ruby were good friends. Ney Wade and Tom Howard [Ruby's lawyer] were partners. Want to know how/why Wade got away with it? Clue--LBJ JEH.

Absolutely right!..... JEH   Could not allow any evidence that connected one of his "Extra Special Agents " (Wade) to Jack Ruby.

  Hoover wasn't gay or a cross-dresser. 
Some glimmer of support on that...

Homosexuality is a "character flaw"? You must have been tuned into Rush Limbaugh this morning. How Trump has cheapen the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

He was a flaming pervert. The mob knew it and it was why the mob didn't have to worry about Hoover putting heat on them.
