Yet another JFK assassin related figure has passed away- Jim Leavelle- the Dallas homicide detective who was escorting Lee Oswald through the basement of Dallas Police Headquarters when Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby on November 24, 1963- has died at 99. Jim Leavelle is the man in the tan suit. If you go the the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas his suit is on display there. Jim Leavelle believed as I believe- LHO acted alone/ no conspiracy. A couple weeks ago I wrote about Max Yasgur whose farm was used for Woodstock- a ‘one hit wonder’ in history- Jim Leavelle would also qualify.
I remember his face just as much as Oswald because of the photos and clips.
As a young kid seeing those photos in a book on the assassination- same here- he caught my attention.
I believe he acted alone too. I wrote a post about it and the evidence
But Oliver Stone’s movie was titillating, wasn’t it?
I thought it was a dumpster fire- he threw every assassination theory in the book into the movie. Jim Garrison had no case at all against Clay Shaw- Garrison was an embarrassment- and he chose him as the focal point in the movie… there were some good performances in the movie though by actors. Forget everything you saw in that movie!
Oh! LOL ! ! !
Yeah, see, once anyone has any kind of actual knowledge about something, movies can be terrible idiotic bores. I didn’t know anything about the people involved, the cases, the facts. I remember being overwhelmed by all the *stuff* that was in there but also couldn’t look away, like a train wreck happening. My husband’s ALWAYS sighing and huffing during sci-fi movies (ones that are supposed to be more factual) and saying, “That’s impossible,” “That would never happen,” “Pfffft! Who wrote this sh**?” 🙂
