Who verified that the hand writing and voice were authentic. I so no mention of either in the article. Who besides the son has seen these papers and tape?
By all accounts E. Howard Hunt was a selfish, grandiose man, a narcissist, who was frequently very cruel to this “damaged” son of his. Maybe this was his last cruelty.
I wonder about that too but I've never seen anyone question the authenticity. Many question the veracity. Fair enough IMO. It does not affect my opinion of LBJ.
I remember judge "Maximum" John Sirica. I'd forgotten that G. Gordon Liddy was not the only "victim." Hunt got 35 years, I read that he served 33 months of hell.
Years later he is quoted "I cannot escape feeling that the country I have served for my entire life and which directed me to carry out the Watergate entry is punishing me for doing the very things it trained and directed me to do."
So here's a super-sized ego and patriot who feels betrayed getting even with Washington?
Regardless of Hunt, et al I am sure of my memories of LBJ and I am always reminded of Rasputin -- I have from those days that like Rasputin's body LBJ's body should be disinterred and burned. BTW, this has nothing to do with Viet Nam, it's his whole "service" to our Country
