Oswald co-worker no longer silent about JFK assassination role

01:56 AM CST on Sunday, November 16, 2008

By HUGH AYNESWORTH / Special Contributor to The Dallas Morning News

LEWISVILLE – Buell Frazier wants to tell it like it is – or was – on a very important day in U.S. history 45 years ago in Dallas.

The quiet, thoughtful man of 64 is not as well-known as some of the others who skyrocketed to fame or infamy in November 1963. But Mr. Frazier played a defining, if unintentional, role in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

He drove Lee Harvey Oswald to work that fateful Nov. 22.

And the Warren Commission, the investigative committee appointed to explain all aspects of Mr. Kennedy's death, claimed that Oswald carried his cheap mail-order rifle to work with him in Mr. Frazier's car.

That put Mr. Frazier in the spotlight immediately after Oswald was captured – and long afterward as a mourning nation sought to find an explanation to the tragedy.

With but a few exceptions, he has kept almost 4 ½ decades of angst, frustration, fear and occasionally even fury bottled up.

All Mr. Frazier did was offer a friendly gesture to a man he hardly knew.

Offering a ride

In mid-September 1963, Mr. Frazier, 19, moved to Irving to live with his sister, Linnie Mae Randle, her husband and three children.

He slept on his sister's couch, drove a clunker Chevy and was pleased to be earning $1.25 an hour, then the minimum wage, at the Texas School Book Depository.

As a teenager in Huntsville, Mr. Frazier had deftly ...

Don’t think many actually LOOKED at my little video of the Zapruder film that I posted early on here.

Right now I have it in my animator, took just 20 frames of it and am enlarging and slowing them down so you can SEE them better.

The film shows the second shot hitting him. Will post it shortly.

"The fact that JFK’s head snaps BACKWARD shows that the fatal shot came from the front and NOT from the School Book Depository."

You quoted this in a reply to me, making it look like it's something I said. I didn't.

This is part of the ABC special, the Kennedy Assasination: Beyond Conspiracy, re creation of the scene.

Conspiracy theorists need to read Case Closed as well, I see a lot of otherwise intelligent people parroting “facts” that just aren’t true.

"The forensics don't lie."

The forensics say Oswald did it.

"Carlos Hathcock said it could not be done after trying to duplicate the shooting at Quantico,I believe."

Then he was wrong. It has been duplicated.

There were 2 (or three) shooters.

I presented the BANG-BANG scenario to Dr. Wecht in 2005. He had LOTS OF QUESTIONS!

The “experts” reject the Z325 bullet to Connally’s back as it does NOT conform with their assumptions. As any investigator knows, you’d better understand your assumptions. As I learned in the submarine navy really quickly, assumptions means ass of you and me.

So if the magic bullet shot did not happen, then it means according to Dr. (I can’t remember his name BUT) he said three shooters and 6 shots to explain all the wounds. He’s right about some of his statement, if the magic bullet didn’t happen then you have to have more shooters, the answer is three.

Some of the information is BURIED, but it’s there. Just like you have to dig finding witnesses who said they heard two shots almost on top of each other. Once you know that the last two shots were a split second apart, then you know that there was more than two shooters and several more shots than three.

"Everyone on the show concludes that the head shot came from behind."

Note that "everyone" includes Gary Mack. Gary is a conpsiracist who has believed there was a shot from the grassy knoll.

Here are both views of the Zapruder video, the original short clip.

In the second one I took 20 frames, enlarged them and slowed them down.

Look at frame 4 -see the line coming from behind or above Jackie? . Remember, this was the SECOND shot.

"The fact that JFK’s head snaps BACKWARD shows that the fatal shot came from the front and NOT from the School Book Depository...Simple physics tells the truth of this story."

Nope. One of the things you should note if you watch the show tonight is how the head reacts to the gunshot. The head is not tossed around. That's what gunshots do in movies. In real life when bullets penetrate and pass through the impart very little motion to the body.

What the bullet did do was create a great internal pressue inside the skull, which exploded out where the skull was weakest due to the fractures.

After that, Kennedy's motion was normal muscle movement.

If anyone hasn’t watched this special from years ago and/or read Case Closed, you only have a bunch of convoluted conspiracy theories as “evidence”.

Then why wasn’t Ruby hit to keep him from talking?

Because Ruby understood his obligations as a member of the mob. He wasn't an unstable nut like Oswald.

I haven’t ever posed any theories here or elsewhere other than saying Johnson was awfully happy to become President.

I just posted the Zapruder film twice. I slowed down the frames in the second one.

Tell in exact detail how someone or anyone could have killed Kennedy if it wasn’t Oswald.

If you're bored, try to find a link to a post where I said Oswald wasn't involved.

The “Magic” bullet explained, nothing magical at all.
