Cuban exile told sons he trained Oswald, JFK’s accused assassin, at a secret CIA camp

Almost 40 years after his death following a bar brawl in Key Biscayne, Ricardo Morales, known as “Monkey” — contract CIA worker, anti-Castro militant, counter-intelligence chief for Venezuela, FBI informant and drug dealer — returned to the spotlight Thursday morning when one of his sons made a startling claim on Spanish-language radio:

Morales, a sniper instructor in the early 1960s in secret camps where Cuban exiles and others trained to invade Cuba, realized in the hours after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas in 1963 that the accused killer, Lee Harvey Oswald, had been one of his sniper trainees.

"I don’t think LBJ would have batted an eye at murder. The cold blooded sucker insisted Jackie stand beside him while he took the Oath of Office.

I posted on FR around 10 years ago on a Kennedy assassination thread that I had dinner back in the 1980's with David Lifton, the author of the book on the Kennedy assassination, "Best Evidence". Prior to his after-dinner talk I had no interest in the Kennedy assassination or any of the conspiracy theories.

Lifton made the very compelling case that LBJ orchestrated the assassination and cited the evidence behind it. He also made the point that conspirators were very sloppy and among other things hadn't counted on the Zapruder film which contradicted the official story. I won’t go into any detail since entire books have been written on the subject.

What’s interesting is that the historical contrarians like Lifton are the mathematical/scientific sorts. Lifton is a physicist and mathematician. A very convincing read on the true author of Shakespeare’s works is by an astrophysicist. Robert Shoch is a PhD geophysicist who has demonstrated the Sphinx is much older than the conventional wisdom of Egyptology.

There was a TV program about 12 or so years ago in which the shooting was reconstructed using dummies placed exactly as they were at that time, ammo from the same lot as used by Oswald, and an Italian Carcano rifle.

The bullets traveled exactly as the reports said they did, and whent through the Kennedy dummy, hit and bounced around Conally exactly as they did.

Lots of hydrodynamic forces, the force vector and physiological response may all be interacting to make that happen.

Shoot A gallon water jug at about the same range with a similar caliber, in my experience the jug is always forward of the point of impact. The water goes everywhere.....

***the cheap Carcano rifle***

The Carcano got a bad reputation when during WW II the Italians adopted a different Caliber rifle.
So, when Americans took them as souvenirs and loaded them with the wrong ammo, the rifle blew up.

I, before witnesses, put three shots in one hole at 100 yards with an M1 Garand from the prone position. Best shooting I have ever done. Unfortunately it was the “sight in” phase and none of it counted.

I have never been able to do that since. Now I am lucky to hit the paper at 30 yards.

There is a new theory that a bodyguard armed with a new fangled M-16 may have also accidentally shot him.

That's not what happened. You don't understand ballistics.

Oswald couldn’t hit the side of a barn—he was, as he said, the designated patsy.

+++++
Oswald never fired the round that penetrated the windshield next to the driver

Yes, head in the sand. Cruz’s dad was friends and partner of Oswald, was potentially involved in the assasination. Remember how quickly Cruz dropped out when questioned about this publicly? Anyway, old news, a curiousity at the point. Cruz, or better, Lyn’ Ted, is a whinny nasel-voiced loser that might get a few headlines in the Senate but is otherwise a total loser and waste of time and money. I cheer everytime I get a piece of unwanted mail from him, chalking up more wasted money—and not mine as I’ve seen my donation to him recouped multiple times since 2016. Yep, sadly the incompetent idiot cannot keep a decent mailing list and keeps spamming people that ask to be unsubscribed. Hey, maybe your money paid for the most recent mailing from him?

I don’t think that’s what happened. Rather, the forces of shock waves in the tissues as well as exit wound forces pushed matter forwards, equal opposite reaction is rearward.

But, what I find most unusual is the projectile found on the turkey. The 160 grn round nose 6.5mm bullet is quite a penetrator. Neat huh, how a bullet that likely could penetrate several men winds up in the sheets...

Your post is the kind of crap that drove FReepers away from FR. Keep trying to make it a ghost town, the left will thank you.

Yeah, I’ve got rotator cuff problems and arthritis
so my shooting days are over, except in emergencies.

There is a new theory that a bodyguard armed with a new fangled M-16 may have also accidentally shot him.

I always liked that theory, because it explained any government coverup[s], as well as certain physical evidence (bullet fragments, wound characteristics, closely spaced shots, etc.) - but I have been advised that it has weaknesses also...
