Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

This article is in preparation for publication on Veterans Today by Jim Fetzer:

We have been saying since 2012 that Billy Lovelady was never seated at the desk in the Squad room as Oswald was led by. That was faked. Lovelady was implanted into the film, which was definitely a technology that existed in 1963. Here is what they could do in 1945.

So, if they could do that in 1945, they could certainly implant Lovelady at that desk in 1963. 

Lovelady NEVER said that he was at that desk. He never said he saw Oswald at the Dallas PD at all. In fact, he denied it. This is from his Warren Commission testimony:

Mr. Ball: Did you EVER see Oswald again THAT DAY? (after breaking for lunch)
Mr. Lovelady. NO.

That was April 1964. How could Lovelady possibly forget about it if it happened? Oswald was only the most notorious assassin in the history of assassins. And it was a media circus, with reporters and photographers and filmers- and with Lovelady, supposedly, right square in the middle of it. 

Not only did Lovelady never claim to be at that desk, but neither did his wife, Patricia Lovelady, and she was much more vocal about the whole thing than he was. She called Harold Weisberg in 1966 to plead her case for her husband as Doorman and wearing a plaid shirt, but she never mentioned that footage. Wouldn't it have been a good thing to say? 

"Harold, you only have to watch the footage of Oswald being processed at the Dallas PD, and you'll see my husband sitting at a desk wearing his plaid shirt." But, she never said it. 

However, we have learned a lot more about this than we ever realized in 2012, and that is the purpose of this article.

Of course, there are multiple versions of the Lovelady walk-by footage, and it depends on which film you watch. But, we are going to focus on the one from the 1964 documentary Four Days in November, by David Wolper. 

It starts with Oswald being taken into the police department, escorted by a policeman in uniform. 

Notice several things: first, Oswald's shirt is only partially on; it is largely hanging off of him. Second, notice that the cop is only a little taller than Oswald is, and about the same height as the other men in the frame. You don't get the impression that he was particularly tall. And third, notice that the cop's uniform has embellishments, including lapels on the shoulders. This will become important as we proceed. 

But then, it suddenly changes, and now Oswald's shirt is completely on him, covering both shoulders. 

And notice that escorting him now is not a cop in uniform but a homicide detective, wearing their trademark white Stetson hat. So, this was from another film and another time, but they put it in here. It continues with Oswald being fully dressed.

But then, when they supposedly turn into the Homicide Division, Oswald is back in just a tshirt, and he's back with a uniformed cop.

So, Oswald is in a white t-shirt again, and escorting him is a cop wearing a white hat. But I have that arrow there to point out something else: this cop in uniform is much taller than the first cop in uniform:

So, the cop on the left appears to be of average height and only slightly taller than Oswald. Remember that the height of his hat doesn't count; you have to discount that. But, on the right, the cop is much taller than Oswald, and he's quite a bit taller than the other man in the picture too. He is a very tall man. Also notice, that the tall cop doesn't have the embellishments on his shoulders. 

So, the tall cop is on the left with no embellishments (a plain uniform) and the shorter cop is on the right with his fancier layout. 
I'll also point out that the taller cop was leaner, while the other guy looks just a little bit portly. So, these were different cops, which means that these were different scenes, strung together and made to look like one continuous sequence.  

It's really very simple:

1) There were definitely two different cops. We know that because they were of different heights, and their uniforms were different, one embellished, the other not, plus they had different builds.  

2. The first one was definitely there around 2 o'clock. We know that because Oswald got arrested at 1:45, where they left the Texas Theater for City Hall at 1:51, and had to get there right before 2 as he began his trek through the building. So, this was filmed shortly before 2: 

3. Now, since the other cop was from a different film, there is no chance that he had Oswald in his possession at the same time.  The short cop certainly didn't hand Oswald off to the tall cop; nobody has claimed that.  And that means that the tall cop must have been with Oswald at another time and another circumstance. And since 2:00 only happens once, it could not have been at 2:00. Therefore, the clock in the room with him which says 2:00 must be phony. 

How could this guy be with Oswald at 2 when the other cop was with Oswald at 2?

So, that clock must be an artifact added to the film. Besides, when do you ever see clocks on poles at police stations anyway? It's fake! They were just trying to sell the idea that it was a continuation of the part that came before, which it wasn't.  

Why would they, the conspirators, want to make this incident appear to be happening at 2 PM? It's because they were trying to reconcile Oswald's timeline with Lovelady's. It was a very elaborate ruse, a very clever bait and switch. 

So, what was the purpose of this elaborate bait and switch? 

It all had to do with Lovelady. After Harold Wesiberg started bellyaching about Lovelady having worn a short-sleeved striped shirt, they had to come up with an image of Lovelady wearing a long-sleeved plaid one. Why'd they go with plaid? It's because the haze and distortion in the blow-up of Doorman's shirt, plus the light reflections, gave it some contrast, and plaid was all they could think of to match it. Doorman's shirt isn't plaid; it just has some weird contrast, and not anything that a clothes designer would have done. 

That is HSCA Doorman, which is considered the best in clarity and quality. What's his shirt pattern? It isn't plaid. Plaid means horizontal and vertical lines crossing, forming boxes. But, there isn't a single box on Doorman's shirt. What we are seeing is just haze and distortion and light reflection. But, obviously, they couldn't come up with a shirt with that as a designed pattern for Lovelady. So, they went with plaid, apparently, because somebody thought it was close enough. But, they thought wrong. These two patterns are NOT the same.

 So, this was a very futile and misguided effort, with no chance of succeeding, but it's what they went with and what they did. Harold Weisberg told Mrs. Lovelady that Doorman's shirt isn't plaid, so it didn't matter if her husband's was- even though he knew it wasn't. This is the shirt Lovelady actually wore on 11/22/63:

And this is how it appeared in the Couch film on 11/22/63.

But, the FBI put it in writing TWICE that Lovelady said he wore the shirt you see above. And, they knew full-well that lip-flapping alone wasn't going to cut it. THEY KNEW THAT THEY WERE ON THE VERGE OF LOSING ALL CREDIBILITY ABOUT THIS, AND THEY ALSO KNEW THAT NOTHING LESS THAN AN IMAGE COULD SAVE THEM NOW. Obviously, such an image didn't exist since Lovelady didn't actually wear a long-sleeved plaid shirt. So, they had to improvise.

And that's why they went into the movie business. They had to implant a Lovelady figure, properly dressed, into some footage-somewhere, anywhere, so long as they could make it look real. 

So, they must have studied all the footages, and they decided that placing him at that desk in the Squad room was their best option. But, they had to think about the timing. When was Lovelady actually at City Hall? The police transported various TSBD employees to City Hall at 1:50. So, they decided that 2:00 was a good time to create this phony rendezvous between Oswald and Lovelady. So, they placed a Lovelady figure in that Squad Room and called it 2:00. It must have been another time that the footage was taken, but by linking it to the footage of Oswald's arrival and putting that big clock in the room saying 2:00, they could pull off the ruse. That way it worked well- both from the standpoint of Oswald's timeline and Lovelady's. 

But, is it possible that when Oswald was actually there in the Squad room that they had already confiscated his outer shirt, and he was only in a t-shirt? He spent a lot of time in just a t-shirt. And so to make it look continuous with the preceding footage, did they paint his partial shirt on him?

I think it's possible they did that. That shirt looks pretty darn phony to me. I have serious doubts about its authenticity. And does it look like Oswald's arm is going behind his back? It seems like his elbow is going behind him.

Yikes! That would be torturous! And it's not even anatomical. How could his elbow be that low? It wouldn't be that low. It couldn't possibly be that low. How long do you think his arm was? I have to wonder if they painted that shirt on. 

But, one thing is for absolute certain: this was all a very elaborate ruse. And it was all done for the sake of showcasing Lovelady in a plaid shirt. That is the sole reason why they did it.  

They put Lovelady in that film (and it wasn't necessarily Lovelady). But, Lovelady's arrival coincided rather closely with Oswald's arrival, so it was a credible way to explain how their paths crossed.

It's all fabrication. It's all illusion. Lovelady was implanted into the film. Above, you can see him turned and looking at Oswald, which is where you expect him to be looking. But, look what he was doing earlier:

This is the first frame of Lovelady in the Squad room. You can see that the big cop and Oswald have already passed him. You can't see Oswald, but you know he is there, handcuffed to the big cop. But, how did they get by Lovelady? They were two astride, and they would have either had to step over him or go around him. Which did they do? We don't know because they don't show us, but the truth is: they did neither. They just walked straight through because Lovelady wasn't there. And why is Lovelady not looking at Oswald above? Why is he staring straight ahead like Whistler's Mother?

Lovelady would have seen and heard them coming, so he would have fixed on Oswald BEFORE Oswald even reached him. The idea that he could be looking straight ahead at the point above is ridiculous. It is screaming-out-loud fake. Lovelady wasn't there. They did the best they could to fake this, but it wasn't good enough. This is like a Nazi propaganda movie designed to lie to the American people. How Machiavellian is this? To me, it is a disgusting and revolting spectacle.  

Lee Harvey Oswald was innocent, and he was standing in the doorway during the assassination of JFK. Billy Lovelady was also in the doorway at the same time, but he was not the Doorway Man; he was another figure whom we call Black Hole Man. Those are the facts, and the only question is: How long can the US government and its media shills continue their despicable, dastardly, and evil cover-up of the truth?
