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

 It's 2023, and they are still altering JFK films. This phony compilation is being heralded as the "full" Darnell film. It just went up a month ago.

It took 60 years to find it? Remember that I said that I contacted Gary Mack and asked him if the Sixth Floor Museum had a version of the Martin film that had the infamous Lovelady clip, which features Gorilla Man milling around smoking in front at a time when Lovelady was DEFINITELY not there in front of the TSBD. The Martin film was claimed to be the source of the Gorilla Man clip, but it didn't have it. However, eventually, someone came up with the "full" Martin film in which the phony clip was added. So, this is more of the same bull shit.

It's happened again, with the phony clip of "Prayer Man" in the doorway after the assassination, which has been added to the Darnell film. Be aware that there was never any Prayer Man. He is nobody. He's a complete fabrication.

But right now, focus on the fact that that film jumps from somewhere early in the motorcade, long before Dealey Plaza is reached, to suddenly being after the assassination with Officer Marrion Baker running across the street. That phony clip was first scene in Oliver Stone's JFK, 30 years after the assassination, and it's a pity that he included it, considering how shaky its origin and authenticity are.

Jimmy Darnell was the cameraman for a local Dallas station, WBAP, and he was in the 3rd camera car back. How could these two images have been captured by his camera when they are qualitatively so different?

So, the first frame is from 2:26 in the film, and then at 2:28, it suddenly goes to the other. But, how could that be the same camera?

And why would Darnell have turned his camera off between the times that those images were taken? They are not temporally or spatially juxtaposed. There is a huge gap of time and space between them.

Darnell did shoot his film in chronological order, didn't he?

But, what's funny is that they got some of the footage for this Frankensteinian fraud from Shutterstock. That's a stock image/stock footage house, and I know about them because I'm an indie filmmaker. It's considered a crime for Hollywood to use stock footage, but indie filmmakers do it all the time. I've done it many times, although I prefer to use Pond5.

But, all these stock suppliers splatter their name over their offerings, precisely to prevent someone from using it until they pay for it. Once you pay for it, they let you download the version that doesn't have the name splatterings. But, whoever made this phony thing just used it with the name, and you see it repeatedly: Shutterstock.

So, what is Shutterstock doing over the original film by Jimmy Darnell shot in 1963? Oops. Whoever made this phony thing fucked up badly.

And by the way, whoever did it, don't bother removing it from Youtube because I have downloaded it.

Now, as to the source, it's no surprise that one of the "discoverers" of this was Bart Kamp. He's the guy who claimed to find the one and only image of James W. Bookhout from the JFK assassination. I am referring to the image of the freaky guy who was standing in the Homicide Bureau where Will Fritz is talking to officers, and everyone is paying close attention except for this one guy who is preoccupied smoking his pipe. We call him Pipe Man.

Kamp claimed that Pipe Man was Bookhout, but he most certainly was not. Kamp claimed in a lecture that he went to the National Archives seeking an image of James Bookhout and that they directed him to this image, that they identified him as Bookhout. But then, I went to the National Archives and put it to them, and they denied ever claiming that Pipe Man is Bookhout or knowing that he's Bookhout. What they told me was "we leave that to researchers." Not only was Pipe Man not Bookhout; he wasn't even there. He was dropped into the photo. The story of this photo is that Will Fritz, on the right, is talking to his men, and everyone in the room has their eyes and ears on him, including the guy sitting at the desk, who apparently is looking through Pipe Man like he wasn't there. He wasn't. He was pasted in.

I am not going to revisit all the freaky things about Pipe Man, his hair, his glasses, his right hand, etc., but I will point out that he most definitely was not James Bookhout. You know how genetics works right? That you get half your genes from your mother, and half from your father? Well, here is Pipe Man with Jim Bookhout, the son of James Bookhout, and I can guarantee you, as a doctor, that these two guys were not genetically related.

So, the bottom line is that, just as the Martin film was fraudulently used to source the phony Gorilla Man clip of Lovelady that was made in 1966, so too was the Darnell film used to source the phony Prayer Man clip, hence the "full" version that includes it. So, where'd you get it, Bart? How'd you find it after 60 years, with Shuttershack nameplate included? Did you go back to the National Archives, did you? Is that where you got it?

So, you see, falsification of JFK assassination imagery never ends. They are still doing it in 2023.
