James Sutton alias James E. Files and the grassy knoll shot - thoughts?

[Allan Fritzke]

When I look at the Zapruder Film, the last shot looked to come from the front and pushed JFK back!
This man either has researched it well or actually did take the head shot from the front! Good interview to watch!

Pretty well confirms the Deep State hired mobsters to do the job and set up Oswald - if his story is correct!  He used a .221 Remington Fireball with a mercury loaded fragmentible round.

I'm not sure if this Wim Dankbaar produced documentary has already been posted but here it is anyway:

The Grassy Knoll: FBI Agents Re-Examine The JFK Assassination

In EVERY area of Weirdness - be it the JFKA or the Roswell UFO crash - people come out of the woodwork with incredible stories. In many instances, they seem to be sane and educated and to have no obvious motive or agenda. Sometimes their tales mesh with the facts well enough to have a superficial plausibility. Often, it takes serious researchers YEARS to expose them as frauds - and by then, they may well have a following of True Believers who refuse to accept the truth. They are the bane of serious research. I have never seen a really convincing explanation for this phenomenon, but it is very real. In EVERY area of Weirdness, I start with a strong presumption that characters like James Files and JVB are frauds - because 99% of the time they are.

I believe it was Trafficante who was asked at some hearing, "What if I told you Jack Ruby was working for the Mafia?"

Trafficante's response: "I'd say the Mafia needs a new personnel director."

It seems to me the same principle applies to Files. The Remington Fireball thing was a nice touch, although I'm not sure it would be a credible assassination weapon.

Santo: “We’re gonna whack the President tomorrow in Dallas.”
Carlos: “I like it. Who we got – Big Lou and Crazy Frankie, the Trigger Twins?”
Santo: “Nah, they’re in Vegas on annual leave. Nicoletti has a 21-year-old punk named Files.”
Carlos: “Italian, of course? Works for Joe Bananas, I presume?”
Santo: “Uh, close. He was born in Alabama and has a solid background in, uh, shoplifting, I believe.”
Carlos: “Weapon?”
Santo: “Handgun. Kind of a Buck Rogers thing called a Remington Fireball.”
Carlos: “Oh, yeah. I think I bought one for my grandkid’s birthday. Shoots candy, right?”
Santo: “Be nice, Carlos. It’s kind of a high-velocity peashooter. Varmint gun. It should do the job on our Presidential varmint if Files can shoot straight." [Chuckles] Nicoletti got a dozen ice slugs from the CIA, but the damn things melted in transit. [Chuckles]
Carlos: “We got a patsy, right?”
Santo: “Of course, commie punk named Oswald. Owns an Italian rifle – World War Two surplus called a Mannlicher-Carcano. A nice touch, eh paisano?”
Carlos: "Locations?"
Santo: "Files and peashooter 40 yards in front at ground level behind picket fence. Patsy's rifle planted 80 yards to the rear on 6th floor of some office building."
Carlos: “New plan: Whack Nicoletti and this Files punk. Get back to me when Big Lou and Crazy Frankie sober up. Take some annual leave yourself - you're losin' it, Santo."

Well one thing is certain, if you look at the court of public opinion in the comments section, we certainly get a fairly large consensus of agreement with 2.5 million views!  Just looking at the most popular "likes"!

Knowing what we know now, if the FBI says he's not credible then he's probably the most credible person we will ever hear.   (3.5K likes)

I was in Dealey Plaza approximately 2 years ago. The distance from the wall at the grassy knoll is ridiculously close, less than 50 yards. I was amazed that the news accounts of the assassination made it sound like an impossible shot, far from it. The shot from the 6th floor or the surrounding areas were not unusual. The fact that the motorcade drove at a low speed through this turn is one of the most glaring examples that this was arranged by the highest level of our own government, JFK wanted to get out of Vietnam, war is profitable. RIP JFK.  (1.2K likes)

He's not stumbling over the answers or hesitating before he answers them, he answers quickly and precisely. And he doesn't look nervous at all. he seems quite sure of himself and confident like someone who knows what he is talking about. seems credible to me.  (1.4K likes)

THE CIA AND FBI DID IT...  (1.3K likes)

Pretty hard to fight against the court of public opinion.   There still is something called common sense including people running up the grassy knoll.  Head slightly forward and then  back towards Jackie's side is not a convulsion.  Jacqueline saw it all, never had an opinion and was never interviewed. Pretty convincing to me that some sort of cover up must have occurred if she was not even called upon to be a witness to what she saw!

In brief, NBC retained me as a consultant for their planned story on Files. I hired the detective firm of Jules Kroll. JK established from telephone records Files was in Chicago, not Dallas, on November 22,1963. We then placed a call to Files from Dick Clark's office (DC was producer), and I interviewed Files about Kroll findings. He said he had a twin brother, who no one knew about, and whom he met shortly before November 22, and who he murdered after November 22. He said it was his twin brother in hospital with his wife, not him. His wife, however, said there was no twin, and Kroll confirmed there was no twin. My view then and now is that Files invented the story for the money it would earn him.
