Was Richard Case Nagell Questioned in Moscow?
Nagell told Dick Russell that the East Germans sent him to Moscow for questioning, and that he wrote out a full confession about his involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald and the JFK assassination. However Nagell's Stasi files do not indicate that he was sent to the Soviet Union for questioning. More lies told by Nagell.

In addition to the fact that the files show nothing about Nagell being sent to Moscow, they reveal as you mentioned before that they concluded that he was suffering from paranoid delusions and, based on their psychiatric evaluation, "insanity". And it was for that, among other things, they released him.
So it raise the obvious question: Why would they need to or even be interested in sending this disturbed person to Moscow for further questioning? For what purpose? He's living in a fantasy world, nothing he says is believable. It's interesting that the KGB officers in Mexico City at the Soviet Embassy who said they met Oswald (Nechiporenko and Kostikov) said they had to regularly deal with unstable people, i.e., walk-ins, who offered information. They simply turned them away (which is what they did to Oswald too).
I guess this is where the conspiracy crowd accuses you of altering the files? Or that they are misleading, false? That's usually their last resort. And I'll just add that it's remarkable to realize that the hardline communists in East Germany were more sensible about Nagell, more connected to reality and able to see through his fantasies than some of these conspiracy believers. You really can't make some of this up.
