DALLAS (Reuters) - A batch of old documents linked to the slaying of President John F. Kennedy has reportedly been unearthed, including a highly suspect transcript of a conversation between assassin Lee Harvey Oswald and Oswald's killer Jack Ruby, the Dallas Morning News said on Sunday.
The newspaper said the Dallas County district attorney's office, which uncovered the documents, would display its discovery at a news conference on Monday morning.
The Morning News said the items found in an old safe in a Dallas courthouse included personal letters from former District Attorney Henry Wade, the prosecutor in the Ruby trial. Ruby shot Oswald two days after the president's death.
Also found were official records from Ruby's trial, a gun holster and clothing that probably belonged to Ruby and Oswald, District Attorney Craig Watkins told the newspaper.
But one potentially controversial item is a transcript of an exchange between Oswald and Ruby in which they discuss killing Kennedy to halt the mafia-busting agenda of his brother, Attorney General Robert Kennedy.
The Morning News said one theory about the transcript was that it was part of a movie script Wade was working on with producers, for a film that was never made.
The transcript resembles one published by the Warren Commission, which investigated Kennedy's assassination and concluded Oswald acted alone. The FBI had determined the conversation between Oswald and Ruby -- this time about killing Texas Gov. John Connally -- was definitely fake, the newspaper said.
Connally was riding in the car with Kennedy and was wounded in the attack.
The documents may be a Presidents' Day gift to conspiracy theorists who have long questioned the official U.S. government version that Oswald acted alone when he shot Kennedy on November 22, 1963, as the president's motorcade swept past the Texas School Book Depository in downtown Dallas.
Nightclub owner Ruby subsequently shot Oswald dead at point-blank range as police were escorting their prime suspect. Ruby died a few years later from cancer.
Amelia Eargart and Glenn Miller are on the very same island too. I have been told so by an unmentioned reliable source.
I believe Ruby’s brother finally got possession of the weapon after years of petitioning the courts, as it was no longer needed as evidence.
Any decent Leftie worth his salt knows this has to be fake: JFK was killed by a cabal of right-wing industrialists and the CIA because he was going to pull us out of Vietnam.
Hoax my rear end! All you have to do is compare "I Saw Her Standing There" to "Silly Love Songs", and you'll know that the real Paul died just after "Revolver" was released.
Yeah but they wouldn’t let Jim Morrison visit lol.
Probably written on that same typewriter used for Dan Rather’s Texas National Guard memo.
CORRECTION: "for me and millions of Americans allegedly saw that one happen live on TV."
I...buried......Paauull
I wonder if they found set lists of Lee’s band.
Never thought of it that way! Now I’m confused about what I saw.
“And brother Teddy continues to drink like a fish...45 years later...”
And apparently swims like one, at least after he gets out of the car.
Amelia Eargart and Glenn Miller are on the very same island too. I have been told so by an unmentioned reliable source.
Hey don’t forget Bob Wills. After all he bought Ruby’s house. All on the same island Adam Clayton Powell stole.
Could that be the reason so many records and evidence either disappeared or were sealed?
LOL I forgot about his Bimini hideway. Another crook the democrats loved.
Actually..LBJs’ wife had the largest building company in VietNam for Barracks and the like..and LBJs’ mistress says the VP orchestrated it!
Likely an urban legend.
But I always heard that LBJ ducked and covered his head seconds before the first shots were even fired.
I tend to think that more than 1 shot came from the DALTEX building.
I could tell you some stories about LBJ and his friends,but then I’d have to kill you!(j/k)
