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

I am tired of reading that Jack Ruby hired Tom Howard to be his attorney, or that Ruby's family hired him. That is not what happened. 

Tom Howard had done some legal work for Ruby years before, and I think it had to do with getting a liquor license, but he wasn't currently Ruby's attorney, and they had no arrangement. Ruby never asked for him- or any attorney. What happened was that after being questioned on the 5th floor for hours, he was brought down to the Homicide Bureau to be questioned by Fritz, and either before that or after that, they just told him that his lawyer was here, and he could now confer with him. That lawyer was Tom Howard, and Ruby went along with it because Ruby went along with everything. He didn't even protest when he was made to undergo a rectal exam to check if he had a weapon hidden there. The arrangement for Tom Howard to be Ruby's attorney was not made by Ruby or his family. It was made by the Dallas Police. Tom Howard was seen talking to Will Fritz the night of the Midnight Press Conference.  And that increases my suspicion that they were planning to kill Oswald that night. 

No prisoner, before or after the JFK assassination has ever been given a press conference the night of his arrest. It was the one and only time it ever happened in police history. And nothing close to it has ever happened. It stands alone. 

So, why did they do it? Officially, it was because the press was clamoring to see more of Oswald. Do you buy that? Because: I don't. Plus, they could have let the press see him without giving him a microphone to give a speech. That is just bizarre. 

So, if I'm right that they were planning to kill Oswald that night, why didn't they go through with it? It must have been because, although Ruby was there at the PD,  he never made it into the assembly room. And the proof is that there are no genuine images of Ruby at the Midnight Press Conference. If they had real ones, they wouldn't have to resort to fake ones. 

Here's an example. This Ruby looks too young to be him. Ruby was 56, and this guy looks like he's in his 30s. And Ruby had an amputated left index finger, and this guy doesn't. 

Notice that he is holding a pencil between his thumb and index finger, and his index finger looks intact. But, here's Ruby: 

You see the stumped index finger on Ruby, and that settles it: that guy at the MPP wasn't Ruby, which means that Ruby wasn't there, at least, not in the room. 

They let Oswald speak for a little over a minute, and he spent the time talking about how the Dallas Police were denying him an attorney. He implored the world for someone to come forward and provide him with legal assistance. He did so much damage to the Dallas Police, that they had to do damage control the next day with that phony story about H. Louis Nichols visiting Oswald, and Oswald turning down his offer for a lawyer. Don't believe it.  I don't say that Nichols was in on it; he was hoodwinked. They must have had an Oswald-double there who met with Nichols and turned down his offer. The real Oswald never would have done that. When he asked the world for a lawyer, he didn't specify any particular one. He didn't bring up John Abt. He just asked for legal representation. The real Oswald never would have refused the offer. 

So, that was another phony thing that they did, and the phony things were piling up: fake mail order of a rifle; fake backyard photos; fake trip to Mexico City, etc. They couldn't let Oswald see an attorney. If they did, they would have had to kill the attorney. And yet, they were running out of time because if another day or two passed without providing Oswald a lawyer, it would have been obvious to the whole world that they were denying him one. Look how fast they got Jack Ruby a lawyer. What was the difference? The difference was that Oswald was of sound mind, but Ruby was not. 

So they, the Dallas Police and FBI, were in a bind. They knew that the trial of Oswald would turn into the trial of themselves. They knew that it would have taken him no more than 15 minutes to convince his attorney, not only that he was innocent, but that he was being framed. 

So, what do you think happened next? Do you think they just got lucky that Jack Ruby saved their asses? Luck had nothing to do with it. Just like they arranged for Tom Howard to be there, they arranged for Ruby to be there. But, it's not that he knew anything about it. Ruby was oblivious. Ruby was out of his mind. He was strung out on drugs. He was a mental case.  What happened is that they got him to the Western Union Office, just a block away, using Karen Carlin AKA "Little Lynn."  She needed the money and couldn't wait, blah, blah, blah. But, how did they get him from the Western Union office to the police garage? That's where drugs came in. One of the drugs they got him to take (I would bet) was scopolamine, the zombie drug. Allen Dulles learned about it from the Nazis. He spent the whole war in neutral Switzerland, and he hobnobbed with Nazis. He  partied with them. And after the war, he brought over 2000 Nazis (we get by with a little help from our friends) to the this country, via Operation Paperclip, because they, of course, didn't know anything about the gas chambers. The largest group were the rocket scientists, which gave birth to NASA. And the second largest group were the chemical and pharmaceutical scientists. 

If Ruby was high on scopolamine, as I believe he was, then all someone had to do in the Western Union office was say, "You ought to go down and see what's happening at that ramp." And Ruby would have done it. And once there, someone just had to nudge him to go on down the ramp, and he would have done that. And those men who were clustered there were only there for him. It was an incoming ramp, so who could they have been waiting to see? Nobody. They were just there for him; to be a magnet for him, and to coax him to go down the ramp once he got there. The whole thing was a setup.

Look at those eyes. That is a man who was tripping out. He was wired, and I mean high as a kite. 

The killing of Oswald by the Dallas Police and FBI, that was surely put into motion by Lyndon Johnson, is the most Machiavellian scheme ever conceived and carried out.  It wasn't until 2013 that Maxim Irkutsk enlightened the world that Jack Ruby, like Lee Harvey Oswald, was framed and innocent.
