Is this one considered to be a CT book?

Oh yeah, definitely, 100%. And to be precise, as John Agee pointed out, Curry doesn't actually say that in his book. Curry's said at a press conference announcing the release of his book.
Curry made the following statement in a second pre-release interview; "I think there's a possibility that one [shot] could have come from in front [of the limousine]. We've never, we've never been able to prove that, but just in my mind and by the direction of his blood and brain from the president from one of the shots, it would just seem that it would have to [have] been fired from the front rather than behind. I can't say that I could swear that I believe that it was one man and one man alone. I think there's a possibility there could have been another man." Was Curry genuine or trying to make money out of the assassination? Everyone can make their own mind up on that one.

So, what exactly is the problem?

Is it that he was trying to sell a book?

Or is the problem that he, as an inside man, publicly expressed doubts about the findings of the investigation?

Here is some pages from Curry's book and Curry "as the man on the inside" tells us that they were satisfied that they had enough evidence to charge Oswald with the murder of Tippit.

But we are not discussing the murder of Tippit….

Btw I would be interested to know who exactly made the decision that "they" had enough evidence to charge Oswald with Tippit's murder….

The last time I looked it wasn't the police who made such a decision, so who did?

Absolutely no problem, if Curry truly believed what he wrote in his book, basically that the assassination was a conspiracy. As Charles points out, that's a huge volt face on his early comments. Was Curry genuine or trying to make money out of the assassination? Everyone can make their own mind up on that one. But, as I said previous, conspiracy books sell better than non-conspiracy books. Had Curry wrote a book that repeated his early comments/statements ie no conspiracy, would anyone have even printed the book? I think that's a fair observation.

Nasty, nasty……. Did your wife leave you… or perhaps….. did she decide to stay?

So, you don't really know who decided that "they" had enough evidence against Oswald for the Tippit murder?

True, but he wasn't the only one who came to such a conclusion after the passing of time.

I have no idea. It could be either, but is there something that justifies the conclusion that he was just trying to make some money?

Fair enough

Sure it is, but it's nothing more than an assumption that nobody would have printed a pro-LN book by Curry.
