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

Postal Inspector Harry Holmes was a liar, and there is no reason to believe anything he said. For instance, in his WC testimony, he claimed that Oswald recanted about going to Mexico City and elaborated about it. But, you know that's not true. In the first interrogation, Oswald said the only place he ever went in Mexico was Tijuana. When you're being accused of killing the President of the United States and a police officer, why would you lie about a trip to Mexico City? You wouldn't,. You couldn't. And neither could Oswald. There is no doubt that Holmes bold-faced lied. Not a single other person who attended that final interrogation said that that happened. And Bookhout said that nothing of importance came out of that final interrogation.

Holmes also lied about Oswald's reported P.O. Box. He said that Oswald was receiving newspapers from Russia. But, think about it. When he was working, Oswald made $1.11/hour. And he had to support a family. So, do you really think he would have spent the exorbitant postage to have Russian newspapers sent to him? And if he did, how come, we've never seen them? Shouldn't his room have had a stash of them? It was just a lie; another Harrry Holmes lie.

I'm not at all sure that Oswald had a P.O. Box. We never heard it from him. You know he didn't shoot at Walker. You know that's all made up. And that includes his disaster note to Marina, written in Russian. So supposedly, the first thing he tells her to do in case of the worst case scenario is to go to the P.O. to check the box. But why? If Harry Holmes was right, that the only thing the box ever contained was Russian and Socialist newspapers, why the heck would she need those? Especially at a time of crisis. So, I figure that "they" wrote that just to validate the idea that he had a P.O. Box. And that's why I doubt that he did.

But regardless, don't believe a word that that evil Harry Holmes said because he is burning in Hell right now, and you can bet your bottom dollar on that.
