New Evidence in J.F.K. Assassination Compels L.B.J. Attorney, Barr McClellan, To Demand Release of Documents
Monday November 17, 3:35 pm ET
McClellan, Former Attorney for Lyndon Baines Johnson, Petitions Support Of Senate Judiciary Committee and Department of Justice to Investigate New Evidence and to Release All Documents in J.F.K. Assassination Case
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Barr McClellan, an attorney who worked closely with former President Lyndon Baines Johnson, has asked for the support of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Department of Justice to investigate new evidence of L.B.J.'s involvement in the J.F.K. assassination. McClellan has also asked for the release of hundreds of documents that were withheld by the C.I.A. and F.B.I. from a 1998 investigation conducted by the Assassination Records Review Board.
"The American public has waited forty years to hear the truth about the J.F.K. assassination," said McClellan. "For government agencies to withhold critical evidence and not cooperate with the AARB investigation is a form of obstruction of justice. Under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act, the public should be granted access to these documents."
According to McClellan and former AARB investigator Doug Horne, hundreds of relevant documents were withheld from the 1998 investigation into the J.F.K. Assassination. They believe that these materials are now in the possession of the National Archives, relocated from sealed files previously controlled by the C.I.A. and F.B.I. Additionally, McClellan has suggested a formal review of the evidence in his book, "Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K." which clearly shows a direct connection between L.B.J. and the individual involved with the assassination and cover-up.
"At this time we need to see what else is missing and what else would be helpful to presenting the entire truth," McClellan continued. "The Senate Judiciary Committee and the Department of Justice could make the request of the National Archives and should do so."
A press conference is scheduled for Tuesday, November 18, at which time McClellan will make a more specific request for document production, and will detail support for this cause from diverse and highly placed sources. The public and media are invited to attend this special conference at the National Press Club, in Washington, D.C. at 3:00 p.m. EST. "Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K." by Barr McClellan was released last month by Hannover House. 464 pages, $24.95 sugg. retail, ISBN 0-9637846-2-5. NATIONAL PRESS CLUB, 529 14th Street NW, Washington, DC 20045

The coverup was in full swing by the time Kennedy reached Parkland. It astonishes me to see how quickly the cover-up was in play. I honestly was shocked. This was so well-planned by whoever among the several suspected factions did it.
The history of what happened to the Limo smacks of coverup from the outset.
Agreed.

Limo BTTT.

The problem with your #82 is.....Soo many people involved and so little has leaked.
Don't get me wrong, there was a conspiricy.
There is one man left on the face of the earth that knows the truth and he still ain't talking. His name is Doctor Cyril Wecht. He knows more than anyone.
To: Destro
Yep. Too many convenient coincidences. But I have to say, I think Earl Warren was duped and directed. The things I've read to date paint a picture that the man was deeply troubled by what he was involved in.
Johnson was one of the most feared men in Washington in his day, not far behind Hoover. With Hoover in his corner, the rest of the scenery paints itself. It becomes apparent why Bobby too had to die and ties it up very neatly. The interesting counterpoint is the view of the Democrat party when it comes out that it was one of their own that killed their hero and they willingly helped cover it up.

I still would trust the report of the docs at Parkland regarding the wounds over the "pathologists" at Bethesda.

An important point: JFK's Dallas trip was announced in April. That gave the conspirator's 7 months to execute this. That's why everything was in place from the start to the finish.

You can save your breath. I've debated her on other topics and there is no amount of facts you can present that sink cannot ignore, attempt to impugne or make fun of. There is also no argument people like that are above running from when that is pointed out either blatently or subtly. You just have to expose them and stay on point. ;)

You're assuming none of the archives has been altered.
A lot of mischief can occur in 40 years. If someone was smart enough to get away with killing a President in front of the world, surely they'd be smart enough to carry a big erasure.

The atempt to change the head wound from an exit wound to an entry wound, and having the change accepted, must of given encouragement for the BS given out at Ruby Ridge, Waco, the Muraugh Building, TWA 800, and 9/11.

The John Birch Society has a well-deserved reputation as a haven for kooks and conspiracy nuts. The same publishing house which put out this McClellan book also pushes the Roswell "Area 51" nonsense.
The JBS has found its sweet spot in the paranoids who read and follow its palaver.

All I can say is that the moment I heard Kennedy had been shot, my first thought was LBJ did it! I had even made the comment to my husband when the two were elected that Kennedy better watch his backside, or LBJ'll get him!

I read A Texan Looks At Lyndon too. Funny you should recall that he spotlighted deer. He did so much worse.

Everyone on the Warren Commission is now dead I believe the RINO Senator from Penn, (Magic Bullet A Specter) considers himself alive.
Though, I will entertain arguments to the contrary
