Jim Leavelle Misremembers

[Michael Welch]

For almost sixty years Detective Jim Leavelle stated that he jerked Mr. Oswald back and to his left by holding his hand inside Mr. Oswald's pants and on his belt. Actually, Detective Leavelle did not do anything because he was not looking to his left, and he did not have enough time to react. When he did have time to do his job, he was a dirty cop. He helped Captain Will Fritz create the narrative to frame Mr. Oswald. Detective Leavelle was the man who interviewed Miss Vicki Adams and added the element of seeing Mr. Shelley and Mr. Lovelady on the first floor. A fact that was denied by her and Miss Sandra Styles, and pretty much by Lovelady and Shelley as well.  Sincerely yours, Michael

Are you saying that Jim knowingly went on a potential suicide mission just so that the man he was escorting could be killed by another nut who was firing a gun a few feet away in his direction?

Hi John, How have you been? No, I am saying that for years Jim said that he pulled Mr. Oswald back to the left, and if he had not done that Mr. Oswald would have been shot more squarely by Jack Ruby. Thus, Jim said that the bullet might have done less damage by passing straight through. None of this happened. Detective Jim Leavelle misremembered. Sincerely yours, Michael

Bravo, Mr Welch!   With sharp eyed, thinking people like you studying the case, perhaps someday  the LNer's will be compelled to accept the glaring truth.

Hi Walt, It is good to see that you are still here! Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I doubt that anyone will really change their views, but there is plenty of evidence out there. Thank you for everything, Sincerely yours, Michael

How exactly do you believe that Leavelle's recollection of this event lends itself toward a conspiracy?  He simply stated his recollection of the event. Big deal.  Why not start a thread on whether Oswald was wearing boxers or briefs and suggest the answer discredits the WC?

[Michael Welch]

Hi Richard, It is good to see you are still here! My point is not that. I should have been clearer, sorry. My point is that Detective Leavelle was content to repeat his propaganda [I am the good ole detective handcuffed to Oswald; I tried to save him....] for years, and that he was willing to do Captain Fritz's bidding by adding information to affidavits to help frame Mr. Oswald. Sincerely yours, Michael

Michael-
You must be the politest guy to frequent this forum.  A refreshing change.  I don't see anything about this that is particularly sinister or lends itself to propaganda.  Much less demonstrates a conspiracy.  He simply stated his recollection.  This was a traumatic event that took place quickly.  Lots of confusion.  Maybe at some point he did pull Oswald back in the melee in a belated attempt to save him.  Obviously, the event is on film.  So there would be no point in lying about it.
