Why the first shot missed

[John Iacoletti]

Wasn't Oswald's "hidden" print found on the disassembled Carcano, and didn't the DPD or some other law enforcement agency detect and photograph some hard-to-make-out prints on its trigger guard on 11/22/63, and didn't a fingerprint expert take a close look at those photos years later and determine that the prints were Oswald's?

A single partial palmprint was sent to the FBI on an index card a week after the assassination.

Latona told the WC that the trigger guard prints were not suitable for identification purposes.  Scalise told the HSCA that the the trigger guard prints were not suitable for identification purposes.  30 years after the assassination, some photos with no provenance whatsoever were pulled out of a briefcase and examined by Scalise, who didn't publish his work, or identify how many points of identity he found or where they were located.

Also, weren't some fibers from Oswald's shirt and/or the blanket in Ruth Paine's garage found on the Carcano?

Fibers cannot be exclusively matched to a specific item like a shirt.

How many "unfortunate-for-Oswald coincidences" do you figure the Warren Commission blew out of proportion or . . . gasp . . . outright fabricated . . . in its effort to incriminate the poor little sharpshooting, "wrong place at the wrong time," self-described Marxist known as Lee Harvey Oswald?

Too many to count?

How many unsubstantiated claims are you planning on stating as though they were facts?

How many "really, really unfortunate-for-Oswald coincidences" do you figure the evil Warren Commission blew out of proportion or . . . gasp . . . outright fabricated . . . in evil effort to incriminate the poor little sharpshooting "wrong place at the wrong time" self-described Marxist known as Lee Harvey Oswald?

Way too many for you to count, right?

Is there an echo in here?

Sorry, but unsubstantiated claims don't "incriminate" anybody.

Didn't Marina testify that she found Lee's wedding ring that day (11/22/63) in the special-to-her little cup her grandmother had given her?

Just in the vacant recesses of your skull.

Yes she did. And Ruth Paine testified that she was the one who found it. One of Marina’s statements (CD79) said she saw it lying on top of the dresser. Nothing about a cup. Another one of here statements (CE1820) said that the police found it. An FBI report (FBI 105-82555 Oswald HQ File, Section 16, p. 93) says that the police found it on the dresser.

Was there ever a ring there, and was it actually in a cup? Who knows?

But what the hell does that have to do with who killed JFK? Nothing, unless you’re desperate to invent “evidence”.
