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

Physical evidence, indeed.

One postscript to the matter of this film clip: what I never understood--and do not to this day--was how the FBI, pursuing the matter of "Oswald in the doorway" (which had become a national news item, because of the work of JFK researcher Jones Harris, and the follow-up news story by New York Herald Tribune writer Don Bonafide) could possibly pose Lovelady in the wrong shirt.

The picture showing Lovelady in the striped shirt (rather than the shirt he was actually wearing) fueled the fires of suspicion--for years.

Once I discovered this film clip, I believed it settled the matter once and for all.

But there is that one loose end. So. . .: Should any researcher come across any FBI memos or telexes that addresses this issue of why Lovelady was posed in the striped shirt, instead of the shirt these films obviously show he was wearing, I'd be interested in that issue.

No, David Lifton. The film clip didn't settle the matter once and for all because the film clip was FAKED. Lovelady was NEVER at that desk. And he never said he was. Nor did his wife Patricia ever say he was, and she liked talking about it a heck of a lot more than he did. THEY FAKED THE FILMS OF HIM IN THE SQUAD ROOM. And they did it precisely because the FBI had botched it by taking the pictures of Lovelady in the striped shirt and admitting that that's what he said he wore. It was all damage control. That mistake of the two FBI agents on Feb 29, 1964 is what thrust the FBI into the movie-making business, the Lovelady movie business. And it went on for years. The last version of Lovelady at the desk apparently wasn't made until the 21st century. It wasn't seen until the 21st century that I know of. And it was a replacement for the earlier done in the 1970s. 

No one with any tendency to be honest is going to say that these are the same man. What's the weight difference between them? It's got to be at least 30 pounds. Maybe 40. In fact, they realized afterwards that they made him too stocky in the new version, so they had to slim him down.

 It's been a comedy of errors from the beginning, and really, the joke is on them and their stooges who defend this crap, such as Joseph Backes.

David Lifton is on the right side of history over Kennedy's body and the pre-autopsy, but he is on the wrong side of history on the Doorman issue.
