JFK Assassination Forum

George Kisevalter and Igor Danchenko

Yuri Nosenko was a false defector-in-place in Geneva in June 1962 — sent there to discredit what recent true defector Anatoliy Golitsyn was known by the KGB to be telling the CIA, and he was a false (or perhaps rogue) physical defector to the U.S. in 1964 — two months after the assassination of President Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald, a self-described Marxist who had lived in the USSR for two-and-a-half years. (Nosenko claimed that he’d read the KGB file on Oswald four times — twice before and twice after the assassination — and therefore knew for a fact that the KGB had absolutely nothing to do with the former Marine sharpshooter and U-2 radar operator in The Worker’s Paradise.)

When, in June 1962, English-speaking Major Lt. Col. Captain Nosenko, who was ostensibly in Geneva to provide security to a Soviet arms control delegation and “desperately needed $250 worth of Swiss francs,” defected-in-place to CIA’s Tennent H. Bagley, Russian-speaking George Kisevalter — already legendary within the Agency for having handled destined-to-be-uncovered-and-executed Pyotr Popov and Oleg Penkovsky — was brought in from Washington to help the Russian-understanding Bagley interview him.

When Nosenko returned to Moscow a couple of weeks later with the Soviet negotiators, it was Kisevalter’s task to transcribe the tapes from the four meetings that he and Bagley had had with Nosenko plus the first one that Bagley had with him one-on-one.

In 1965, Bagley asked a trusted defector, KGB Major Pyotr Deriabin, to listen to the tapes and correct any errors in Kisevalter’s transcriptions.

Deriabin found one-hundred-and-fifty of ‘em.


Fast-forward thirteen years:

Nosenko-defending John L. Hart told the HSCA in 1978 that these 150 mistakes proved that Nosenko had been grossly misunderstood by his debriefers.

Which somehow reminds me of how probable KGB agent Igor Danchenko fed Christopher Steele unfalsifiable “intel” for his opposition research dossier on Donald Trump.

Your horrid photo analysis continues unabated, I see?

You saw the screencaps I just posted of Harkness and the MC. Those are in fact from the exact Youtube video you keep referring us to.

I'm not the one who is confused.

   What you posted does not show the Darnell footage of the Elm St Extension. That Elm St Extension footage leads directly to your posted still frames. It shows us exactly where "No Glove Cop" and Officer Harkness are. If you are aware of this footage, why are you avoiding it?

    TODD - All you need to do is watch the recently discovered Darnell Film Snippet to see where "No Glove Cop" is positioned inside the railroad yard. Go to YOU TUBE and search - "The Full Darnell Snippet" by - "The JFK Theorist" (23:32 - 23:40). This is not complicated. 

  Bump. The above clearly shows I am talking about, "the dirt road portion of the Elm St Extension". That "dirt road" DEAD ENDS into your outlined bollards. The "No Glove Cop" and Officer Harkness are BOTH on the Elm St Extension when that alleged cop walks between/through the bollards. At this point, the alleged cop and Harkness are physically on the dirt road, and there are no bollards between them. This has consistently been my stated position.

RS: That "dirt road" DEAD ENDS into your outlined bollards

Not true at all. In the Darnell film, the line of cars to the left of the image is clearly seen extending to the west end of the "long house" sitting directly to the east of  Bowers' tower. This fact allows us to locate which spur Darnell, Harkness, and the MC are next to. Any aerial image of the RR yard clearly shows that the road crosses that line of cars and continues on. In fact, the dirt road turns to the north and extends well beyond the E-W tracks and to the northern end of the rail yard.

You need to stop just making things up as you go along.

Again, here is an annotated photo showing the railyard:
