From Behind the Fence

[Richard Smith]

   You're talking about "prevention". I'm talking about "apprehension". The SS did absolutely Nothing but flee the crime scene and steal the body of JFK after the Kill Shot. It does Not get any weaker than that.
   

The job of the SS is to protect.   It was the job of the police to apprehend the suspect.  Which they did.  It is ridiculous to characterize the actions of the SS as fleeing the crime scene,  You are suggesting that they should have stopped the car in the kill zone and all jumped out like in a cartoon to search for a suspect?  Leaving the injured president sitting in the car.  They were taking the president to the hospital.  Just as they should have done.  There was nothing sinister about this.

   If we are to believe the SS, they have a LIMO behind JFK packed with SS Agents to the point of spilling out onto the vehicle's running boards, and NOT a single SS Agent can leave the vehicle to take CONTROL of the crime scene? Really? Common practice is for a single assassin to have a SPOTTER/WING MAN. Yet, here we have an entire LIMO jammed with SS Agents and they remain inside the vehicle as it flees the scene? I never said this was "sinister". What it is is "cowardice". These same big brawny guys had no problem with physically pushing Avg Joe's around at Parkland Hospital in order to steal the body of JFK. Yet, under fire inside Dealey Plaza they ALL ran like dogs. That is about as Cowardly as it gets.

Again, their responsibility was to stay with the President.

Hello, Fergus!  There is a ton of information online about the crime that the U.S. government committed against Dr. Malcolm Perry.  One of the best articles, "The Ordeal of Malcolm Perry," was written by James DiEugenio.  It can be found at the "Kennedys and King" web site, here. 
https://www.kennedysandking.com/john-f-kennedy-articles/the-ordeal-of-malcolm-perry

A few quotes from this excellent article.  "Dr. Kemp Clark, chief of neurosurgery—the man who actually pronounced Kennedy dead—said he observed a large gaping hole in the rear of Kennedy’s skull. (Michael Benson, Who’s Who in the JFK Assassination, p. 80) Dr. Malcolm Perry, who cut a tracheostomy across the bullet wound in Kennedy’s neck, said that the wound was one of entrance. (James DiEugenio, The JFK Assassination: The Evidence Today, p. 367)"

Continuing from the article, "Some strange things happened with (the Nov. 22 Parkland press conference). First of all, there is no film available of it today, which is remarkable in and of itself, because, as one can see from pictures and film snippets, there were many reporters in that conference room. It is very hard to comprehend how not one of them called for a film camera to cover the initial public pronouncement of President Kennedy’s death. Second, initially, the Secret Service told the Warren Commission that they did not even have a transcript of this conference. According to former Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) analyst Doug Horne, there are two real problems with the Secret Service saying this. First, according to Horne, the Secret Service went around collecting the films of this press conference. Thus making it disappear. (See Horne at Future of Freedom Foundation conference of May 18th. This is at the FFF web site.)
But further, the Secret Service lied to the Commission about having the transcript..."

Yes, extreme pressure was applied to Dr. Perry by the feds to get him to publicly modify his "entrance wound" statement. But, privately, he never really changed his mind. And this pressure (i.e. threats) began within an hour of the assassination. So shortly after the assassination, no one had yet done an investigation of the crime scene. How could anyone possibly know the hole in the front of JFK's throat was, or was not, an entrance wound? Clearly, the SS pressure on Dr. Perry was not based on forensics or science. It was based on objectives or information that is still being denied to the American people today.

 Special Agent Lem Johns interviewed in 2005: “Our job is not to investigate. Our only job is to remove the vice president from danger.” The same responsibilities would apply to agents assigned to the President.

       "REMOVE" anyone from "DANGER" can Quickly be done by Eliminating The Threat. (2) Who said anything about "Investigate"? Investigate happens well after the "danger" is eliminated. They would Not even let Lt Day inside the TSBD to do his CSI work until the building had been "cleared" of a possible shooter.
        Who interviewed SA Lem Johns? He is a highly controversial figure. He claimed to have jumped out of the LBJ SS Car and then ran down Elm St toward the JFK Limo. Yet, there is Not 1 single image of his doing this or any Elm St eyewitnesses that said they witnessed his doing any of this.

The SS is a federal agency.  There was no federal crime committed that day.  What authority would they have to investigate or arrest someone for a state crime (i.e. murder)? Their primary responsibility is to protect the president.  Even until today, they have very limited law enforcement authority over certain financial crimes such as counterfeit of US currency and forgery.  It is silly to suggest that they should have stopped in the danger zone to investigate.  They did exactly the right thing and got the president to the hospital and the VP out of danger.
