JFK Truth: Oswald had an alibi

I am sure that most of the readers here at VT are well aware that President John Kennedy was not killed by Lee Harvey Oswald. He was killed by the “national security state” – to use a term of Attorney Vincent Salandria.

I have the privilege of knowing Vincent Salandria.   And, on the day of the assassination, Vincent Salandria told his friends and confidants in Philadelphia that if Oswald dies in the days ahead, it means that the whole story coming out of Dallas is a vicious lie. Hence, when Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby on national television on November 24, Vince knew immediately that the whole thing was a ruse, that the fascist state killed Kennedy.

Let’s stick with the thought of Vince being a lawyer, a defense lawyer. If a defense lawyer has a client who is falsely accused of a crime, what is the first thing he tries to do? Answer: he tries to establish his client’s alibi.

“He could not possibly have done it because at the time it took place, my client was at XXX doing YYY.”

It’s called an alibi, and it is the heart and soul of every innocent person’s defense. It’s the first thing the defense lawyer will ask his client: “Where were you when it happened?” It’s also the first thing the police investigator will ask the suspect: “Where were you when it happened?” And even without being asked, it’s the first thing the innocent person will want to shout to anyone who will listen: “I didn’t do it! I couldn’t have because, at the time, I was at XXX doing YYY!”

I’m pointing this out because I meet people, claiming to be Oswald defenders, who tell me that we can establish Oswald’s innocence without accounting for where he was at the exact time of the murder. And, that is utter nonsense. If Oswald was NOT on the 6th floor, “locking and loading” on Kennedy, then we need to prove where he was. Oswald needs an alibi. He needs it as much as any other defendant. Imagine if you were charged with a crime, and you couldn’t account for your whereabouts during its commission. You’d be up the creek, and you know it. It’s the same for Oswald.

But fortunately, there are very few places Oswald could have been, and this situation is very easy to narrow down.

If he wasn’t on the 6th floor, he couldn’t have been on the 3rd, 4th, or 5th floors. Nobody has ever suggested such a thing. It was the lunch hour. He wasn’t working. He wasn’t watching the motorcade from a window. There isn’t the slightest basis to consider those floors, even theoretically. I have no need to elaborate because no one has ever placed him there.

That leaves the 2nd floor, the 1st floor or the doorway. That’s it! Already, we have got it narrowed down to three possibilities.

The second floor was mostly offices, and the only place there to even consider is the snack room. And Oswald was seen and encountered in the 2nd floor snack room a minute and a half after the assassination by Officer Marrion Baker and Building Superintendent Roy Truly.

But, is there any reason to think that Oswald was there a minute and a half before when Kennedy was being killed? No, there isn’t. When Baker saw Oswald, Lee was walking through the room. He wasn’t seated at a table. He wasn’t eating. He wasn’t drinking. There was no food around. There were no remnants. He didn’t have a Coke; and he wasn’t in the process of getting one. He wasn’t fiddling with change or working the machine. He was just walking through the room. But, after Baker and Truly left, he did get a Coke. The point is that you can’t assume that Oswald was there a minute and a half before doing nothing. We know for sure that he wasn’t eating; he wasn’t drinking; he wasn’t reading; he wasn’t working a crossword puzzle; he wasn’t making an origami; and he wasn’t writing a letter. All the indications are that Oswald had just arrived, that he had just gotten there a moment before Baker.

Why did he go there? I think it’s extremely likely that he was instructed to. He had to be found in a place that could be linked to the 6th floor. That snack room, being right next to the stairwell coming down from the 6th floor, was the best possible place they could send him, and they did.

It was just like with the Texas Theater. Why did he go there? It wasn’t because he had a hankering for a war movie. And it wasn’t because he had to duck off the street after having killed Tippit because he didn’t kill Tippit. There is a witness, Butch Burroughs, the popcorn man at the theater, who insisted that Oswald was in the theater at 1:07. Tippit wasn’t killed until 1:16. So, do the Math.

My point is that Oswald must have been ordered to go to the Texas Theater, and likewise, he must have been ordered to go to the snack room. Who ordered him to go there? I don’t know for sure, but I suspect it was Bill Shelley.

What about the 1st floor? Was Oswald there? Well, that’s where the main lunch room was, also called the Domino room because the workers would play dominoes there. When Captain Will Fritz was asked by the Warren Commission where Oswald said he was during the shooting, Fritz said that Oswald said that he was in the 1st floor lunch room eating lunch with “other employees”. The other employees he was referring to were James Jarman and Harold Norman, both of whom were African-American. However, Fritz lied. He lied like the devil.

First, Oswald never said he ate lunch with anyone. He ate lunch alone. He mentioned Jarman and Norman as two men who were there at the same time, in the vicinity, that they were in plain view. But, it was much earlier than 12:30, which was when Kennedy got shot. It was more like 12:15. And we have photographic proof of that.

Jarman and Norman, like most of the other employees, planned to watch the motorcade. So, they went outside to take their positions. But then, they changed their minds and decided to go upstairs to the 5th floor and watch the festivities from the window. So, they left their perch outside; they walked down Houston Street around the building, and then they re-entered through the back door. Then, they took the elevator up to the 5th floor, and then they walked across the wide expanse of the 5th floor to the southeast corner and perched themselves at the window. And we have a picture of them there at 12:30.

I tell you, the above image, which was taken by Dallas Times Herald photographer Robert Allen, is one of the most important that we have from the JFK assassination because it proves that the head of the homicide division at the Dallas PD, Captain Will Fritz, told a bold-faced lie to the Warren Commission. You see the designation of Harold Norman on the right. On the left is Bonnie Ray Williams who joined Jarman and Norman. James Jarman was standing a little farther back behind Norman, and in some versions, you can see him faintly.

How could Oswald have been eating lunch with these employees in the domino room at 12:30 when by that time, they were up on the 5th floor perched at the window?

Fritz lied! He twisted Oswald’s words. Yes, Oswald said he ate lunch inside and that Jarman and Norman were around at the time, but that was well before 12:30. Even Attorney Vincent Bugliosi, who is the antithesis of Attorney Vincent Salandria, admits that it was 12:15 that Oswald’s lunch-eating took place.

So, why did Fritz lie? It was because of this:

Those are the Fritz Notes from the first interrogation of Oswald at 3:15 PM on the day of the assassination. Oswald told Fritz that he was “out with Bill Shelley in front”. And he must have meant during the assassination and not after because Shelley wasn’t out there after. Shelley left immediately with Billy Lovelady for the railroad tracks, following the throng of people, and they did that before Baker even reached the steps, which they saw from a distance. And they never returned to the front of the building. After they were finished looking around the tracks, they went around to the back of the building and re-entered there. Then, they were inside for a long time. There is NO CHANCE that Bill Shelley was out in front when Oswald left for home at 12:34 or whatever. So, Oswald must have meant DURING the assassination that he saw Shelley.

And wasn’t that what Fritz would have asked him? “Where were you at the time of the shots?” What does it matter where he was after? It doesn’t matter at all.

Therefore, the whole idea that Oswald was in the first floor lunch room, also called the domino room at 12:30 sharp is nonsense because he was there much earlier than that.

So, where does that leave for Oswald to be at 12:30? There is only one place left: the doorway. And that’s where he said he was. We have it in writing. Not in Oswald’s writing, but in Fritz’ writing, but Oswald said it, that he was OUT WITH BILL SHELLEY IN FRONT.

And why wouldn’t Oswald be outside watching Kennedy? What did he have to do instead? Why wouldn’t he be just as interested as everyone else? The whole idea that weird, eccentric, disturbed, sociopathic Oswald would rather do anything than join people outside to watch a historic event is nonsense. Once you drop the murderer part of his persona, you don’t get to keep the sociopathic part. That baby goes out with the bath water.

So already, by process of elimination and by Oswald’s own words, we have placed Oswald in the doorway. That’s where Bill Shelley was, so if Oswald was out with Bill Shelley, he was definitely in the doorway. And, we have a picture of him standing there; it’s from the Altgens photo.

I want you to observe that the men match and the clothing matches, and they are two separate things. If you consider the mathematical odds that another man would look that much like Lee Harvey Oswald, and then you consider the mathematical odds that another man would dress that much like Lee Harvey Oswald, you then would have to multiple them together. So, for example, if you think there’s a 1 in a 100 chance that another man would look that much like Oswald and a 1 in a 100 chance that another man would dress that much like Oswald- on the same day- you would wind up with a 1 in 10,000 chance of both things happening. But, that’s just a hypothetical. The real odds were much worse than that.

You notice that I cut off the top of their heads, and that’s because the conspirators altered the image, transferring the top of Billy Lovelady’s head to the image of Oswald in the doorway. But, it was a comedy of errors because they were working from an image of Lovelady from the 1950s when he had a lot more hair.

That’s Young Lovelady on the left, and you see how well those hairlines match. Well, Billy Lovelady was a rapidly balding young man, and by the time of the assassination, he was mostly bald on top already. And thanks to Mark Lane, we have photographic proof.

So, that’s why I cut off the top of their heads. I wasn’t cheating. I was compensating for their cheating.

And, we have another image of Oswald in the doorway from the Wiegman film.

That’s Oswald on both sides of the collage. Same man; same clothes.

And, there may have been other images of Oswald captured that day in that spot that were successfully destroyed or obfuscated.

And, we have a witness, an excellent witness, who recognized Oswald in the doorway. I am speaking of Oswald’s Marine buddy, Anthony Botelho.

It says: “He’d wear t-shirts but would stretch out and break the collars to make them more comfortable. Because of this, Botelho immediately recognized Lee in the Altgens photo.”

This is what he is talking about:

Do you see how on both sides, the margin of the t-shirt looks notched, almost like a v? It wasn’t a V-neck t-shirt that he bought, like they have today. This was a homemade job. He stretched it; he deformed it. And he’s the only one who did that. That is the hand-craftsmanship of Lee Harvey Oswald- his own signature t-shirt, visible on both sides of the collage.

What are the percentage odds that it was Oswald in the doorway during the shooting? They are 100%. There is no chance that it was not him. It is as certain that it was Oswald in the doorway that it was Jesus on the Cross. If that analogy offends you, I apologize. But, the point is that 51 years have passed since the JFK assassination, and we are situated today with 100% certainty that Lee Harvey Oswald was innocent. Completely and totally innocent. And the ONLY thing holding up the official story that he did it is the political power of the state and the mesmerizing power of the mainstream media. And together, I refer to them as the power of officialdom. It’s a fiat thing. It’s true because the State says it and no other reason.

Look what happened in Russia. When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1989, 75 years of Soviet lies collapsed with it, including the cover-up of the Bolshevik slaughter of the Romanov family: Nicholas, Alexandra, and their children. Yes, the Soviets suppressed the truth for 75 years, but they couldn’t suppress the truth forever. And, the modern-day Bolsheviks in this country can’t do it either. The official story of the JFK assassination is certainly going to collapse of its own dead weight. The only question is when.

But, don’t let anybody tell you that Oswald’s alibi doesn’t matter. In fact, anybody who does say that is probably not an Oswald defender at all.

You have to realize that the CIA decided long ago that the best way to control the JFK conspiracy crowd was to populate it with their own people. The job of these people is to steer conspiracy advocates away from dangerous areas- dangerous, that is, to the official story. Right now, in the JFK war zone (and that’s what it is, a war zone, not a community) there are many phony CTs who are simply there to win friends and influence people. They know that they will have more sway with CTs by pretending to be one of them. So, they lie about who they are, about what they are, and about everything else.

So, it is essential to the defense of Lee Harvey Oswald to establish his alibi. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Where was he, and what was he doing at the time of the assassination? The answer is: he was standing in the doorway, watching the motorcade, and clasping his hands in front of his body.
