If someone does not believe in Oswald's innocence, I can understand that when I tell them that Oswald, the real Oswald, never met with H. Louis Nichols, that that had to be an Oswald double, that they will reject it out of hand. But, I am not really interested in talking to them. I'm interested in talking to the people who believe that Oswald was innocent. So, if you don't believe that he was innocent, then do me a favor and go away. I'm not interested you; you're not interested in me; so let's leave it like that. 

But, if you do believe in Oswald's innocence, then stick around. I want to ask you: How much do you believe in his innocence? Enough to think that he was sincere in everything he said? Take the Midnight Press Conference. Do you think he was sincere then? The main thing he said at the MPC was that Dallas Police were denying him an attorney, and he was asking the public to come forward to provide him with legal assistance. 

Notice that he did not ask the public to contact John Abt for him. He just asked for legal assistance. We need to take that at face value, that he was asking for "a" lawyer; not any particular one.

So, after doing that, do you think that hours later when someone came right into his cell and offered to get him a criminal defense lawyer, that after imploring the whole world on national and international television for that very thing, that he actually said no? 

Why would he do that? And why would you believe that he did it? You can hear him directly with your own ears. You can judge his earnestness, his seriousness, his resolve- to have an attorney.  Again: not any particular attorney but an attorney. Why would you think, for one second, that hours later, when offered it, that he would shrug his shoulders and say, "nah"? 

The idea that H. Louis Nichols never really talked to Oswald is not so far-fetched. For one thing, that they had Oswald doubles in Dallas is beyond doubt. Oswald never went into a car dealer and tried out a new car. He didn't even have a driver's license. He never went to a shooting range and shot diagonally at other people's targets. And there are even lone-nutters that agree that that never happened. Just think about it: the rifle was stored in a blanket in the Paine garage. Ruth didn't even know it was there. She was a Quaker and didn't allow guns in the house. So, Oswald who had no car, would have had to find a way to get to Irving, sneak into her garage and retrieve the rifle; find a way to get to the shooting range because he had no car and he had no friends; no friends, no friends, no friends, no friends, no friends; then get the rifle back to the Paine house and sneak it in the garage again; and then find a way back to his boarding room on Beckley. Did I mention that he had no car and no friends? So, do you really think he did all that? Of course, he didn't. So, they had Oswald doubles in Dallas. There is also the story about Oswald hitchhiking. Have you heard that one? It's another real doozey. 

So, they had Oswald doubles. There is no doubt about it. I mean in Dallas at the time of the JFK assassination. So, it is very plausible that they used one on Saturday evening as damage control to offset what Oswald said at the Midnight Press Conference. It is not far-fetched at all. 

Again, if you defend Oswald, how much do you defend him? Do you believe him when he said that he never posed for the Backyard photos? Do you believe him when he said that he didn't own or order a rifle? Do you believe him when he said that he never said anything to Frazier about curtain rods? Do you believe him when he said that the only thing he brought with him to work was his lunch? 

If you believe Oswald, and I do believe him, then you will believe what he said at the Midnight Press Conference, and you will realize that he never turned down a lawyer. That is just one more lie in an ocean of lies that they told about him.
