But Oswald's statement could mean he realized that he had been set up and that his phony defection was now being used against him. Given all that we now know about his "defection," that is a logical, plausible reading of his comment.
Keep in mind, too, Oswald's statement to his brother not to believe the "so-called evidence" against him, and his statement to the police that the backyard rifle photos had been created by someone who placed the image of his onto the backyard figure.
Also, when Oswald was arrested, he repeatedly asked why he was being arrested.
And, when he was arraigned before the judge and learned he was a suspect in JFK's death, he reacted with stunned, angry disbelief.
Finally, voice-stress analysis of his statement to reports that he didn't shoot anyone indicates he was telling the truth.

A "phony defection" that resulted in taking a wife, producing children and a lifelong commitment is a lot of extra baggage for a secret mission?!

A negative exists which was exclusively taken with Oswald's camera.

On prints CE 133A/B were fine scratches indicating that they were first generation prints because 2nd generation prints would not have the same definition. Indicating that they came direct from the original negative and thus could not be a composite.

The grain structure of the negative shows a consistent distribution of film grain across the entire photo therefore it shows no sign of being a composite because this merging would require a photo of Oswald's head to be taken with the exact same type of film, the same camera and from the exact same distance as the original. And then there is the problem of matching the overhead lighting which would require dragging Oswald out into a sunlit day and position him at the same angle and at the same time. And anyway this would all be for nought because by definition at the very least a composite requires a doubling up of film and this additional film grain would stick out like a LNer at a Kook convention.

These two screen grabs from an sfx movie perfectly illustrate the problems with compositing, the first image is virtually straight from the camera whereas the second required additional compositing with an optical printer and the end result is an accumulation of film grain which blurs the image and shows excessive film grain. And for this reason alone, is proof for why the Zapruder film has not been altered because the film grain is entirely consistent with the original Kodak film.


Here's an interesting comparison between the DP backyard cut-out photo and Oswald's backyard photo and the bush to Oswald's left has shown considerable growth meaning that the cut-out photo wasn't a template for the backyard photos. And this is proof that the Oswald photo was taken many months before, so either the backyard photos were some type of long term plan or someone had the psychic ability to take a photo of Oswald's backyard in anticipation of Oswald being a patsy or simply Oswald just took the photo for the heck of it, as he was preparing and gathering intel to assassinate General Walker, an event that occurred just after Oswald received his rifle. Geez what a coincidence!

Another point of contention is Oswald's square chin in the backyard photos but this is simply the way his face is lit and the resulting shadow. Hollywood has known for years the way to light a face that emphasizes a strong jawline. Also notice the heavy shadows under the eyebrows.


And finally and extremely incriminating it's too bad Oswald denied living at Neely Street, you know the location of the backyard photos. Doh!
Mr. BALL. What about the rifle?
Mr. FRITZ. I asked him about the Neely Street address and he denied that address. He denied having a picture made over there and he even denied living there. I told him he had people who visited him over there and he said they were just wrong about visiting.Also, when Oswald was arrested, he repeatedly asked why he was being arrested.
How many criminals come right out and claim they did the deed? If only it was that easy.
And, when he was arraigned before the judge and learned he was a suspect in JFK's death, he reacted with stunned, angry disbelief.
It looks like Oswald was just disappointed that his time being the centre of attention was being dramatically cut short, as the Police interrupted Oswald by dragging him away.

VSA is a pseudoscientific technology that aims to infer deception from stress measured in the voice. It's amazing that you believe this to be evidence??
Ruby wanted to take a lie detector test and Oswald flat out refused. Lie detector tests at the time were probably no more effective than VSA, but the criminals didn't know and Oswald's refusal speaks volumes(pun intended).
Without exception, however, the scientific evidence reported to date shows that voice stress analyzers are not effective in detecting deception; none of these devices has yet been shown to yield detection rates above chance levels in controlled situations.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7047675/JohnM
