At his Midnight Press Conference, Oswald said that he protested to the judge that he was being denied legal representation. That can’t mean that he protested his inability to reach John Abt. It can only mean that he demanded a lawyer, any lawyer, and no one by name. And that should tell you something: that he never met with H. Louis Nichols and turned down his offer of a lawyer. You never heard that from Oswald. You only heard it from the State. From Oswald you heard an earnest cry for help that he wanted A lawyer, any lawyer. We need to listen to him and believe him- not the Leviathan State.
Oswald would have to be insane to plead for a lawyer so passionately early Saturday morning, and then turn one down later that day when it was offered to him. And he was not insane.
Oswald’s first interrogation didn’t start until 3:15. Why so late? I suggest it’s because Bookhout needed to talk to Fritz first and get through to him that Oswald could not have a lawyer. Yet, after Oswald was murdered, Ruby, who did not request a lawyer, was given one: Tom Howard, from Houston, who was not Ruby’s lawyer at the time.
The contradiction between Oswald being denied a lawyer and Ruby having one foisted on him is stark. Dr. Gerald McKnight told me that Tom Howard was at the MPC and was seen talking to Fritz. What that tells me is that they were also concerned about Ruby seeing a lawyer, but they were handling it by picking his lawyer for him. But, Fritz telling reporters that Ruby was talking to his lawyer “which is his right” is surreal considering how Oswald was denied one.
Marina was taken into custody on Saturday, and that tells you that they knew that Oswald’s death was imminent. You can’t prosecute a man for murder while detaining his wife. But, they knew it wasn’t going to be a problem.
So, why did they grab her on Saturday? Why not wait until Sunday after he was dead? This is from John McAdams’ interactive timeline of the life of LHO.
8:00 PM: LHO phones Ruth Paine and asks to speak to Marina. Ruth tells him she is no longer there.
So, Oswald did find out that Marina was taken. And they had to know he would find out because they knew he was calling her regularly and would call her that evening. But, take a look at this from the hallway on Saturday evening.
The reason why the short man on the left to whom Oswald was talking has a blank face with no features is because he was James Bookhout. They did that to him because he was James Bookhout. But, look at Oswald. He was practically smiling. And his voice was chipper too when he said, “So, what have you got against Broby?” Just think: Oswald went to talk to somebody in the hall; somebody he knew. Who could he have gotten to know? It had to be someone from law enforcement; someone who was attending the interrogations. The only one besides Fritz who attended all the interrogations was James Bookhout. No one else attended more than one. There is no one else besides James Bookhout whom Oswald could have gotten to know. And there is no one else besides james Bookhout whose face they would have needed to blank out. So, that is James Bookhout, and I was told that before I saw it. I was sent there to see it. I had requested an image of James Bookhout on Education Forum, and a man named Richard or Robert responded with that link and told me that Bookhout is the man Oswald speaks to in the hall. How did he know that? And why was he hiding that valuable information? Why wasn’t he screaming it in the street like “Soylent Green is people!” as I went on to do? Was he worried about his safety, that it could get him killed? It could be, and believe me, I get it. I worry about it every day and live with extreme caution.
But, the point is that by Saturday evening, there was a complete change of tone. Friendliness had set in. It is my contention that they told Oswald that they believed him, but they had to fake his death first to keep attackers at bay. So, even though he found out that Marina had been taken, by that point, they were all working together, so he was OK with it. But, all that was under cover. It’s not the official story. The official story was that they were prosecuting him for double homicide. And yet, they placed his wife into custody? You just can’t overstate how contrary that is to the U.S. legal system. You can’t prosecute a man while detaining his wife. They have a confidential relationship. She is HIS asset, not the State’s. It all got smoothed over by Oswald’s death, but they had to know that Oswald’s death was coming. The taking of Marina Oswald on Saturday is proof-positive that the feds and the Dallas Police knew then that Oswald was a dead man.
