Bogus evidence of bogus evidence.....

[John Iacoletti]

When you have multiple experts authenticating the handwriting on the envelope and order form, the odds that the handwriting on those items was forged are very minute.

That’s like arguing that if three astrologers agree that a Sagittarius will soon come into a lot of money, then the odds of that being untrue is minute.

Particularly in light of the fact that the authenticity of the handwriting on the money order that was sent along with them is beyond dsipute.

How did you determine that the money order allegedly found in Virginia was “sent along with them”?

[John Iacoletti]

Yes. Really. The handwriting on the original money order was examined by numerous experts in handwriting identification.

Purtell and McNally said they examined a copy.

A reminder of a previous post----- 

What is your point? I didn't use an unnamed source.

OK...two 'document examiners' testified before the Commission.
 Not exactly a vast team of analysts there.

Three document examiners presented a report to the HSCA.

Purtell and McNally said they examined a copy.

Scott said that he examined the original money order.

How did you determine that the money order allegedly found in Virginia was “sent along with them”?

Because it was marked on the order invoice that the money order had passed through Klein's cash register on Mar 13, the same day that they received the order coupon.

[John Iacoletti]

There no order invoice that says anything of the kind.

And even if there was, that doesn’t demonstrate that that specific money order accompanied that specific order coupon.

You would prefer "authenticating with qualifier(s) added"? Cadigan, Cole, and McNally all said that the handwriting on those was Oswald's. None of them offered any doubt. Scott said that it was Oswald's handwriting as well. His opinion was not definitive.

Yes. Really. The handwriting on the original money order was examined by numerous experts in handwriting identification. They all stated definitively that it was Oswald's. There were no qualified or conditional opinions from any of them on it.

Which authenticated documents were used for the comparison and how can you even be sure those documents were in fact signed/written by Oswald?
