I Was a Teenage JFK Conspiracy Freak (new book)

[Rob Caprio]

I can cite lots of evidence that Oswald was the only shooter. But, I don't think you should be lazy. Read the supporting volumes of HSCA evidence. There
are several volumes. It's all very, very conclusive.

Yes, the HSCA concluded conspiracy but that was based on the acoustics evidence, and that was found by the NAS tp be nothing of the sort.

Lazy? I have a massive series on the WC and one on the HSCA. I am very familiar with the evidence in this case. I was not asking you to cite to save me research time, but rather to see what evidence turned you from believing in a conspiracy to believing that LHO did it alone. It is apparent that you cannot cite any and something else caused this change in all likelihood.

It wasn't based solely on the acoustics. Many aspects of the HSCA's work pointed to conspiracy. The acoustics were the reason given, but it wasn't the only one. The head of the HSCA thought that the mob was involved for goodness sake.

Blakey wrote a book saying the mob did it. But the HSCA did NOT conclude that it was the mob.

The draft report of the HSCA, written right before the acoustics, did not say there was a conspiracy.

If you want to see more of why I changed my mind, read my book. I am not going to post 272 pages here. But, if you don't want to read it, that is OK with me. I'd rather that certain people NOT read it.

All you have to do is to read the HSCA supporting volumes of evidence. As Paul Hoch noted in one of his newsletters (I am paraphrasing here) - the HSCA did a lot of scientific
tests, and any one of them could have refuted the Warren Commission, and they didn't. Read the reports of the various panels on the HSCA - forensic, ballistics, photographic, etc. and
the evidence all supports Lee Harvey Oswald as the lone gunman.

This is fascinating.  What ballistics analysis could ever determine who did the shooting?  What forensic analysis?

The Lopez Report shows that LHO (the man gunned down in Dallas) was not in Mexico City. Gaeton Fonzi's work shows that their was a conspiracy.  Richard Sprague's book ("The Taking Of America...1, 2, 3") shows that it was a conspiracy. Henry Gonzalez, who served on the HSCA for a time thought that it was a conspiracy. Ditto Richard Schweiker.

One of the men closest to LHO, George de Mohrenschildt, thought a conspiracy was involved. Robert Blakey always felt that the mob was involved, thus, he thought that it was a conspiracy.

I don't read books that do not reflect what the evidence actually shows.

On the Kennedy assassination, the HSCA concluded in its 1979 report that:

1. Lee Harvey Oswald fired three shots at Kennedy. The second and third shots Oswald fired struck the President. The third shot he fired killed the President.

"In the JFK case, the HSCA found that there was a "probable conspiracy," though it was unable to determine the nature of that conspiracy or its other participants (besides Oswald). "

So the HSCA published a falsehood. Thanks for pointing this out. 👍

Lots of people believe there was a conspiracy. Lots of people believe in flying saucers. That doesn't make it true. The Lopez Report shows no such thing. Fonzi's book is full of allegations but no proof of anything; Richard Sprague was a complete crackpot, etc. and etc. De Mohrenschildt even suspected that Oswald had taken a shot at Walker, and of course, Oswald gave him one of the backyard photos. He later became quite mentally disturbed - just read Willem Oltmans book to see just how disturbed he was.

Hey, read what you want. But, if you find evidence of conspiracy, just post it.
