If I Had Planned The Conspiracy ...

[Martin Weidmann]

It would seem that Mitch can't or doesn't want to answer my question;

Bob Carroll, the first police officer to have unambiguous custody of the pistol and in whose presence the pistol remained until Hill, Carroll, et al, marked it

Where exactly did Carroll say that the revolver remained in his presence until it was marked?

So, I'll just assume that his claim is bogus.

The Warren Commission was, in effect, the FBI investigation of the JFK assassination.
Less than 48 hours after the assassination Hoover let it be known that the outcome of the investigation was going to be that Oswald was the lone assassin.
This isn't a joke or an exaggeration - the outcome of the investigation was decided before the investigation had really got going.
The loyalty of FBI agents was not to the truth or justice or any of that...their loyalty was to the Bureau and the Bureau was Hoover.
Hoover was the FBI and the FBI was Hoover.

This is a very uncomfortable fact for Lone Nutters, who swallow down the Warren Commission's findings wholesale, because it pulls the rug out from under any notions of "truth".
Trying to present the Oswald-Did-It [ODI] theory as a result of the search for some kind of "truth" is a sick joke and the perpetuation of this sick joke is an indicator of a serious malfunction within society.

There is no more extreme mentality than that of the Lone Nutter.

The Warren Commission’s conclusions have been debated for decades, with many questioning the FBI’s role and Hoover’s influence. Whether one believes Oswald acted alone or not, skepticism about the investigation’s impartiality remains. True justice depends on transparency and accountability—key factors that continue to drive discussions about this case.

You can find the LBJ and Hoover tapes on YouTube, where Hoover is rambling on about how they've got their man, but they can't quite figure out what the Mexico City deal is about. LBJ is carefully listening, and it's obvious that he's not convinced that Hoover can wrap up the case and sell it to the public. LJB would rather go with Hoover's report, as he politely puts it, but then explains why he needs a blue ribbon commission to block other investigations into the case; the idiom he uses is a three-ring circus. It's pretty obvious where LBJ is headed.
