Totally agree Walt, the FBI tried to get Curry to retract his statement that Oswald was known to the FBI
the FBI tried to get Curry to retract his statement that Oswald was known to the FBIJohn Edgar Hoover who was the the FBI ( read God Father) in 1963, tried to get Curry to retract his statement that he knew that Oswald was CAPABLE OF ASSASSINATING JFK.
FBI agent James Hosty had been ordered by Hoover ( through SAIC Gordon Shanklin) to go to DPD headquarters and control the interrogation of Lee Harvey Oswald. ( This occurred BEFORE The DPD knew the name of the suspect they had arrested in the Texas theater.)----- How did Hoover know that Lee Harvey Oswald had not been shot in the theater and had been arrested by the Dallas police BEFORE the police had confirmed his identity?? Answer....Three of Hoover's mafia dons were in the theater at the time the Dallas police arrested that dastardly culprit who snuck into the theater without buying a ticket.
A few minutes after Lee was brought into police headquarters FBI agent James Hosty arrived at police headquarters as Hoover had ordered. Hosty saw a DPD detective, Jack Revill, who he knew was the head of the DPD intelligence unit and involved in monitoring subversives in Dallas.
Hosty blurted out....Jack, a communist has killed JFK, His name is Lee Harvey Oswald and we knew he was here in Dallas. We knew he was capable of assassinating the President (
but we never dreamed that he'd actually do it)
The part in italics and underlined was not part of Revill's memo..... but it was published in a story by Hugh Aynesworth in the Dallas Morning News on April 24 1964.
This is what had made the God Father J. Edgar Hoover livid...... There was nothing on record that indicated that Lee Oswald was capable of any violent act. ( He didn't even strike back when he was physically assaulted by Briniguer in New Orleans ) So where did Hosty get the idea that Lee could be set up as the patsy?..... ans:... He knew that Lee had fired a bullet through General Walker's window....and that could be made to look like a bonafide attempt to murder Walker.
