If you have any investigation/detective skills what so ever you'll understand that Sarah Stanton accidentally caught Harvey hiding on the 2nd Floor staircase landing waiting for Mrs Reid to excite the ladies in the 2nd Floor Lunch Room with reports of the limousine's progress as related to her by her husband over the telephone...This ruse was designed to impart on supervisor Reid the power to organize the lady employees as a group to go down to the street/front steps to watch the motorcade - therefore leaving a safe window-less room empty in the back of the building where the patsy would not be seen...Stanton was probably one of the ladies Mrs Reid cleared out and her unexpected encounter with Harvey on the staircase landing was an unplanned mistake that exposed the whole plan to a witness...It is possible that Harvey's encounter with Stanton drove him temporarily down to the 1st Floor where he saw Jarman and Norman enter...But Harvey came back up to the 2nd Floor Lunch Room where he was seen by Carolyn Arnold carrying out his intention of going back in to the Break Room to eat his lunch...Later the 2nd Floor staircase landing would once again prove detrimental to the conspiracy when Officer Baker saw Harvey standing looking out the Lunch Room Vestibule window...

It is all pretty wrapped up now Corbett...Don't bother with shallow denials...

The Education Forum prefers not to solve the case and works against this final solution...It does so so it can keep its favorite researcher Bart Kamp from being embarrassingly refuted...

The Education Forum enforces Gordon's wrongful banning of myself with total censorship...It does that because otherwise they would have to admit their site was run by a fool who banned the guy who cracked the case...

Your story has been concocted by you without a scrap of evidence to support it. IOW, you made it up. When your fantasies are too nutty even for the Ed Forum, that should tell you something. It should, but obviously won't.

I'll repeat my earlier question. If you think you have something as "ground shaking" as you claim, why won't you share it with the public at large. Why do you only want to tell a few dozen people on a forum with a niche interest group.

You believe Mrs. Reid worked for the CIA? Are you out of your mind?

Can I answer that for him?

               "................corner of the building to the traffic light on the concrete Island".

     If the above description is true, then images of DPD Officer Baker, 20 seconds after the kill shot, would show him plowing through this tightly compacted string of people as he ran from the Island into the street. We do Not see Officer Baker doing anything like this on the Couch/Darnell Films. Bearing this in mind, and the opening frames of the Darnell Film showing the driver of Camera Car #2 standing flatfooted outside of his car, reveals that the 20 seconds after the Kill Shot timeline attached to the images of Office Baker crossing from the Island onto the street are Incorrect.
    The Couch, Darnell, and Wiegman Films are dominoes. They rely on each other to corroborate their assigned timelines and the images captured on them. Those films assigned timelines are All Incorrect. And purposely so. Roughly, we are talking about a missing 25-30 seconds here. That's not a tremendous amount of time, until you consider that Wiegman did film the JFK Limo going under the Triple Underpass. Adding 25-30 seconds to the accepted Wiegman Film Timeline, then puts the JFK Limo on Elm St longer than has been accepted for 62+ yrs. And the extended timeline of the JFK Limo on Elm St then topples into another domino. The Zapruder Film.

At least you didn't blame Russia or Putin for once.  These "confederate states" that you reference are the same ones that people from NY and California are moving to in droves?  Do people move their families to other states in the belief that these states are worse than the ones they are fleeing?  LOL.  What a TDS fantasy world you are living it.  People are literally voting with their feet (to give you a thrill by paraphrasing Lenin).  They are fleeing the disasters created by decades long liberal rule in places like California and NY.  Crime, taxes, illegal aliens, homeless encampments.  An intentional catastrophe to make as many people downtrodden and reliant on the government for handouts as possible

Your counter factual description of California reminds me of the classic complaint about the restaurant that the complainer says sucks because it is always so crowded and noisy!

You ignored my well supported arguments against execution and high incarceration…. They are not deterents but instead are more expensive and counterproductive compared to results in states with no executions and dramatically less per capita incarceration rates.

The least safe states are red states. The red state governments focus on “solving” problems that do not exist at a level that made it at all reasonable to prioritize them!

AT LEAST 12 state governments are not second guessing pediatricians, Ob-Gyns, librarians. or scientific consensus because it is not reasonable for legislators to focus on contradicting what is beyond the expertise of the average red states legislator.

Cost of living is heavily influenced by demand. There must still be enough demand for New York or California residence, both much safer than almost any red state, to maintain housing price and income levels.

I know of a couple who moved ten years ago at onset of retirement age from western CT to North GA. She had taught school and he was a self employed handy man. There was no property tax break in CT for homeowners with net annual income below $25k. In GA, senior homeowners with that income limit get the school tax portion of their property tax waived. They pay $1050 annually on their home currently market priced at $600,000 which rose 50% in price in ten years, while younger and wealthier neighbors over 65 pay $7,000 annual tax. The GA county they reside in has 15th highest average household income in the U.S.

None of those points changes that the GA Republican controlled state government reaps what it sows. It is a malpractice disaster as far as legislative focus compared to CT’s state gov. BTW, the waiving of school tax on homes of low income retirees shifts the cost to all other homeowners.

LOL! Are you serious? You're still repeating Guinn's refuted NAA claims, even after being presented with two scientific studies done by seven scientists that destroyed those claims?

And you're still citing ballistic matching as concrete evidence that CE 399 and the bullet fragments came from the alleged murder weapon, even after being made aware that numerous scientists have found serious problems with the entire field of ballistic matching?

I should point out for any newcomers that your reference to "well established and accepted means that have been accepted as valid evidence by our courts since 1879" is referring to ballistic matching, also known as forensic firearms analysis.

As I've said before, even when people present you with hard scientific evidence, you will reject it for no valid reason simply because it refutes what you want to believe.

Obviously, until I brought them to your attention, you were blissfully unaware of the scientific objections to ballistic matching. You have clearly been caught off guard by this information, yet you refuse to acknowledge it and just blindly continue to cite ballistic matching because it is the one and only way you can link the bullet and fragment evidence in the JFK case with "Oswald's rifle."

Here are more articles on the scientific community's objections to ballistic matching:

Here is an excerpt from another recent article on the scientific objections to ballistic matching, titled "Devil in the Grooves: The Case Against Forensic Firearms Analysis," authored by investigative journalist Radley Balko:

For more than a century, forensic firearms analysts have been telling juries that they can match a specific bullet to a specific gun, to the exclusion of all other guns. This claimed ability has helped to put tens of thousands of people in prison, and in a nontrivial percentage of those cases, it’s safe to say that ballistics matching was the only evidence linking the accused to the crime.

But as with other forensic specialties collectively known as pattern matching fields, the claim is facing growing scrutiny. Scientists from outside of forensics point out that there’s no scientific basis for much of what firearms analysts say in court. These critics, backed by a growing body of research, make a pretty startling claim — one that could have profound effects on the criminal justice system: We don't actually know if it's possible to match a specific bullet to a specific gun. And even if it is, we don't know if forensic firearms analysts are any good at it.

The problem with pattern matching

To understand why Hooks’s ruling is so important, we need to delve into some background.

Forensic firearms analysis, or ballistic matching, falls under a category of forensics called toolmark identification, which itself falls under a broader category called pattern matching.

In pattern matching specialties, analysts typically look at a piece of forensic evidence taken from a crime scene and compare it to another piece of evidence linked to a suspect. So they might compare a hair from a suspect’s head to a hair found at the crime scene; a bite mark found on the victim’s body to a suspect’s teeth; or shoe prints to a suspect’s loafers.

Pattern matching analysts then typically make one of three determinations: the two items are a match, the evidence from the accused can be excluded as the source of the evidence found at the crime scene (not a match), or there isn’t sufficient data to make a determination (inconclusive).

In the subfield of toolmark identification, analysts attempt to determine if a mark linked to the crime scene was created by a piece of evidence linked to a suspect. Technically, bitemark analysis is a form of toolmark analysis (the teeth are the “tool”). Toolmark analysts might also try to match knife wounds to a specific knife, the marks on a door or door frame to a specific pry bar or screwdriver, or the marks on a bullet or shell casing to a specific gun.

Pattern matching forensics has a dubious history. Perhaps the most notorious example is the Mississippi dentist Michael West, who in the 1990s and 2000s claimed he could use a fluorescent light to find marks on skin that no one else could see. West claimed to have found otherwise invisible bite marks on victims' bodies, or marks on suspects’ hands that could only have come from gripping a specific knife, or from grasping a victim’s specific purse strap. He sometimes claimed to have found these marks weeks after the incident that allegedly created them. West even once claimed he could match the fingernail marks on a suspect’s back to the fingernails of the victim. He “tested” his theory by prying the fingernails off the dead victim, putting them on sticks, using the sticks to scratch fresh skin, and then “matching” the two sets of fingernail scrapes.

Defenders of these fields argue that analysts like West are aberrant rogues, and not representative of analysts today. But West was considered a pioneer in his day, and the fact that courts continued to certify charlatans like him as expert witnesses ought to tell us something about their ability to distinguish credible expertise from quackery.

Some of the problems in pattern matching are specific to particular fields, but two core criticisms apply across the board. The first is that these fields are entirely subjective. Pattern matching largely boils down to an analyst “eyeballing” two pieces of evidence, then deciding if they're a match. Unlike, say, identifying a blood type or matching a car to registration records, there are no objective criteria in pattern matching. There are no ground truths to find. There are no numbers to crunch.

The second overarching problem is that in most of these areas of analysis, we don’t know how often the distinguishing characteristics used to determine a “match” occur across the broader population of the thing being examined. For example, we don’t know what percentage of the human population’s teeth are capable of leaving a certain pattern of marks on human skin. We don’t even know if such a calculation is even possible. And if it were possible, we don’t know that human skin is capable of recording and preserving bite marks in a way that’s useful (the studies that have examined this suggest it isn't). The characteristics of a bite mark could be affected by the angle of the biter’s teeth, whether the victim was pulling away at the time of the bite, the elasticity of the victim’s skin, the rate at which the victim’s body heals, and countless other factors.

Similarly, we can’t say what percentage of pry bars are capable of leaving a series of scratches on a door. In many cases, both the tool and the substance on which it recorded marks could be affected by an almost endless number of variables. The marks on a door frame might have been created by the screwdriver or pry bar found in the suspect’s home, but there’s no scientific basis to claim the perpetrator couldn’t have used a different screwdriver, pry bar, or a boundless list of other items.

To get a feel for the subjectivity of these fields, we can contrast them with DNA. A typical DNA test looks at a number of markers — typically 16 to 20 — and the sequence of genes present at those markers. Because we know how often a particular sequence occurs at each marker across the human population, we can calculate the odds of anyone other than the suspect having the same DNA sequence found at those markers. If a DNA sample has degraded to the point where analysts can’t use all 20 markers, they can adjust the percentages accordingly. We can calculate a specific margin for error — the odds that a particular hair, skin cell, or sperm cell belongs to anyone other than the defendant, and then relay that information to the jury to inform their deliberations.

We can’t generate a margin for error in the pattern matching fields because we don’t know the frequency with which any of these allegedly distinguishing characteristics occur. Therefore, we can’t estimate the odds that anyone other than the suspect may have left that evidence. We can only rely on the opinions of expert witnesses and their ability to eyeball it.

Speaking of ignoring "very simple truths," why do you keep ignoring and denying the fact that no "Oswald" rifle test has ever duplicated Oswald's alleged shooting performance, even though the tests did not require the expert riflemen to fire under all the same conditions that Oswald would have faced?

Point of order: I am under no obligation to accept the opinions of the kooks you did up.

Ballistic matching of bullets and shells to firearms is a long established and accepted means of determining if a particular bullet or shell came from a specific firearm and that continues to this day and will into the future.

Comically, you choose to throw in your red herring claim that Oswald's shooting feat has never been duplicated. Name another firearm homicide in which the prosecution duplicated what the defendant was alleged to have done. I was a juror in a murder trial. The prosecution never presented evidence that they had duplicated the shooting that the accused was charged with. Guess what? We convicted the guy anyway.

PS. How long before you tell the rest of us who really killed JFK? I know it's been less that 63 years and we wouldn't want you to rush to judgement, but you've got us all curious with you pontifications on the subject.

Wiegman Composite:

Showing TSBD employees standing in a line, spread out from the corner of the building to the traffic light on the concrete island.



               "................corner of the building to the traffic light on the concrete Island".

     If the above description is true, then images of DPD Officer Baker, 20 seconds after the kill shot, would show him plowing through this tightly compacted string of people as he ran from the Island into the street. We do Not see Officer Baker doing anything like this on the Couch/Darnell Films. Bearing this in mind, and the opening frames of the Darnell Film showing the driver of Camera Car #2 standing flatfooted outside of his car, reveals that the 20 seconds after the Kill Shot timeline attached to the images of Office Baker crossing from the Island onto the street are Incorrect.
    The Couch, Darnell, and Wiegman Films are dominoes. They rely on each other to corroborate their assigned timelines and the images captured on them. Those films assigned timelines are All Incorrect. And purposely so. Roughly, we are talking about a missing 25-30 seconds here. That's not a tremendous amount of time, until you consider that Wiegman did film the JFK Limo going under the Triple Underpass. Adding 25-30 seconds to the accepted Wiegman Film Timeline, then puts the JFK Limo on Elm St longer than has been accepted for 62+ yrs. And the extended timeline of the JFK Limo on Elm St then topples into another domino. The Zapruder Film.

In the Russian files released in 2025, there's an image of Oswald's 1962 residence permit (page 306 of the PDF), which has a stamp on it which appears to show that he married Marina in 1960, not 1961.

And perhaps coincidentally, in the Russian version of Oleg Nechiporenko's book Passport To Assassination, he quotes from a 1964 report allegedly written by the heads of the First and Second Chief Directorates, containing a list of the documents to be transferred to the Americans relating to the Oswalds. That 1962 residence permit, along with its predecessor, are included on the list. But in the earlier, English version of Nechiporenko's book, which is very different, those two residence permits are missing from that list. They're also missing from the list allegedly included in the Central Committee decree of 23 April 1964, No. 71 in the Russian files.

As far as I know, the 1962 residence permit was released for the first time in 2025.

Oleg Nechiporenko?

LOL!

Let's be honest here Iran's been at war with us since Carter, and the JCPOA was worthless after 15 years. Trump tore up the agreement as he should have. Thanks to Donald Trump and Israel we will never need to worry about Iran having nuclear weapons.  Thumb1:

What part of this issue would you like to kick off with?

 Go---Start Debating, use reply 2025 to start.

Good summary by Zeon.

Zeon Mason:

Reply 2025

Ok, thanks for posting that WC testimony of Rowland wife. It’s only the part of him telling her about sighting a man with gun at the SE window that she confirms. The black elderly male in the SW window is an after the fact detail which maybe an “embellishment”.

Therefore there’s more wiggle room here that BRW was never in the SN but that he was where he said he was siting on the cart a couple windows down from the box wall. Why chicken bones were found on top the boxes IDK but it’s not that relevant anymore as now there is time from 11:45 till 11:49 that the TSBD shooter had time to stack boxes and adjust the window.

Can we reasonably also discard Rowlands sighting of a man with rifle in hand at the SW window before the fact? If so then there is no problem with Oswald being sighted at by Carolyn Arnold from 12:15-12:17 as he had already prepared the SN from 11:45 till about 12:00 when he went down to the 1st floor and seen by Eddie Piper then.

1] We'll start the debate when you have made your position clear. FOR THE SIXTH TIME - do you believe Rowland invented the man with the rifle on the 6th floor?
I literally have no idea why you won't answer this Yes/No question.
It's really baffling.
Just answer the question.

2] I have no idea why you want to start the debate with Zeon's speculation. I don't understand the point you want to debate. What is the specific point you want to open up with?

These are two unbelievably simple things to clarify. It couldn't be any simpler.
Yet I have a serious doubt you will be able to accomplish either.
I can't start the debate if I don't understand the point you want to debate.
