It is no longer one man's view. It is a Texas grand juries view. That you did not hear that Johnson was indicted for murder in the mid 80s (which I did not know until publicity for this book) says something in and of itself. I would assume when an ex president is inicted for murder it would create a firestorm that does not die down!

As for JFK's murder. You are right it proves nothing. But detective work 101 states that if you have a murder the first thing you do is you check the background of those close to the murder victim. In this case JFK's vice president -Johnson- was indicted as a co-conspirator for murfer and thus would be suspect number 1.

By the way Barr McClellan did not link Mac Wallace (who murdered Henry Marshall on behalf of Johnson) to the the then "unidentified" sixth floor finger print evidence. It was a blind match (the finger print matcher did not know who or where the prints came from). The matcher was A. Nathan Darby, a certified fingerprint expert. Dary has determined that convicted killer Malcolm "Mac" Wallace left a fingerprint in the sixth-floor sniper's nest on the day of the assassination. On the afternoon of the shooting, the authorities found a fingerprint in the sixth-floor window that they were never able to identify. It didn't belong to Oswald, and it didn't belong to any other employee in the building nor to any of the law enforcement personnel who searched the sixth floor. In 1998 fingerprint expert A. Nathan Darby identified the mystery print as belonging to convicted killer Mac Wallace. Darby found a 14-point match between the sixth-floor fingerprint and Wallace's fingerprint.

Darby is a certified Latent Print Examiner with impressive credentials and years of experience. In addition to his training and awards, Darby has testified as an expert witness on fingerprint identification in numerous court cases. Darby states in his notarized affidavit that he found fourteen matches between the previously unidentified fingerprint from the sixth-floor sniper's nest and a fingerprint card that contained the fingerprints of Mac Wallace. It should be pointed out that Darby did not know whose fingerprints were on the fingerprint card. He was asked to compare the fingerprints on the fingerprint card with the unidentified fingerprint from "Box A" from the sixth-floor window. Darby wasn't aware the fingerprint card bore Mac Wallace's fingerprints until after he'd made the identification.

Who was Mac Wallace? Wallace was convicted in a 1951 murder and was suspected in others. He was also linked to the 1961 death of U.S. Department of Agriculture investigator Henry Marshall. Marshall was reportedly close to connecting then-Vice President Lyndon Johnson to fraudulent activities involving businessman and convicted swindler and millionaire Billy Sol Estes. Estes was a key Johnson associate who funneled millions of dollars into a slush fund for LBJ.

Estes alleged in 1984 that LBJ ordered the killings of Marshall and President Kennedy, among others, and that Wallace carried them out. A grand jury decided that same year that Henry Marshall was murdered as a result of a conspiracy involving then-Vice President Johnson, his aide Clifton Carter, and Mac Wallace. No charges were possible since all three men were by then deceased.

DA's have convicted men for murder on less proof. For me at least it is case closed.

I would have convicted Johnson of murder by conspiracy if I sat on a jury on that evidence alone.

You don't even have to get into details of magic bullets, etc anymore. Wallace was proved to be on the 6th floor at the time of the assasination of JFK by finger print match. Wallace was an ex marine and Carter/Johnson associate who had a prior conviction of murder and was indicted for Henry Marshall's murder - both murders on behalf of Carter and Johnson. The first murder conviction brought no jail time for Wallace.
