In 1978 during the HSCA Anne Goodpasture confirmed that "Oswald" visited the embassies 5 times and consequently the photo surveillance missed photographing him 10 times.  She also concludes that the audio tape of "Oswald" was identical to Oswald's voice as sent from Washington immediately after the assassination.  See my other post on Anne Goodpasture for citation.

Let's hear the audio tape.

Let's hear the audio tape.

Goodpasture stated in her testimony that she did not know whether there was any comparison made of Oswald's voice with any tapes.

Goodpasture (pg. 18): "I don't know whether someone took those transcripts [of Oswald's calls] to the transcriber and asked him if it was the same person or if he may have had copies of that tape remaining at that time but you would have to ask him about that."

Boris Tarasoff (code name Feinglass) was the CIA transcriber of the calls to the Soviet Embassy. He testified that he made no voice comparison of Oswald with any tapes. As I understand it, Oswald made no calls to the Cuban consulate. He only made calls to the Soviet Embassy.

Granted, that doesn't mean someone else made a voice comparison. Goodpasture just specifically mentions the transcriber (Tarasoff) but, I suppose one could have been done by others. But nowhere in her testimony, as far as I can tell, does she say one was done.

Additionally, as I understand the evidence, Oswald visited the consulates/embassy multiple times on Saturday. There was no photographic coverage of the consulates on weekends. He went to the Soviet consulate embassy once on Friday - after visiting the Cuban consulate first - and visited the Cuban consulate twice.

The Lopez report and AARB investigation determined that there were no photos taken of Oswald on Friday.

Oleg Nechiporenko, the KGB officer who met Oswald at the Embassy over two days (and said it was indeed Lee Oswald), wrote in his book that the mystery man in the photos was a "former American serviceman" and that he talked to the man several times. Tarasoff was shown the photos and said it looked a person he knew by the name of "Andreeyev". Not exactly an American name <g>.

Here is Goodpasture's testimony to the HSCA:

The Soviet embassy officials/KGB agents were shown the photos of the "mysterious" person and all said the man in the photos was not the person they met over two days who said he was Lee Harvey Oswald. They said the man they met was indeed the Lee Harvey Oswald accused of shooting JFK.

Furthermore, the photos that the CIA released were of a man who was photographed entering the Embassy on Monday. There's no evidence whatsoever that anyone calling himself Oswald - or even the real Oswald - visited the Embassy on Monday.

The CIA screwed up. They thought Oswald visited the Embassy on Monday. Then they - Anne Goodpasture admitted to being the person - reviewed some photos and thought this was a possible candidate. As is obvious that's not even close to resembling Oswald.

And to add: the Lopez Report done for the HSCA stated that the person in the photos was identified as a Soviet KGB officer by the name of: Yuri Ivanovitch Moskalev. However, the report says this was based on just one (unnamed) source.
Source for this is here: https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=799&relPageId=192&search=Ivanovitch_Moskalev

In my view, this is a non-story.
