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.

Heading off to bed.
Sure. He didn’t even know Campesi, did he? And he never had any dealings with associates of Trafficante.
Or are you saying that Marcello, Trafficante and the Campesis weren’t mob?
Frasier is known to those obsessed with this case like me. Interesting to hear about his life afterwards. Sounds like a credible, solid citizen.
You’re right, I screwed up. I apologize.

Ruby drove around with a dog in his car. He called the dog his wife.
People that knew Ruby say that he was unstable and that this is what caused him to make the uncontrolled decision to shoot when he saw Oswald's smirk in the police station.
