John,

Who else besides the FBI do you figure was in on The Conspiracy?

The JFK Assassination Conspiracy, that is.

Like "X" said in JFK, pretty much the whole Military Industrial Intelligence Community Complex?

Didn't the corrupt, fascistic Ukrainians have something to do with it?

LOL

“For a forensic science to be scientifically valid, you need actual, empirical evidence of its reliability and accuracy, period,” said Eric S. Lander, founder of the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. “Historically that hasn’t been the case.” “

Exactly right. Which is why unscientific and biased handwriting “analysis” of 2 block letters on a photo of a microfilm copy of a 2-inch order coupon from microfilm that is now “missing” is not a reliable indicator of who placed an order.

Who else besides you has stopped beating your wife?

Is that an example of your "epistemology," Iacoletti?

John,

What makes you think it was unscientific?

Because the results weren't what you hoping for?

If the results had been "probably not Oswald," would you have been happy with that?

PS  Why the quotation marks around missing?

Do you think it was intentionally lost by the evil, evil Deep State?
