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

 I found some weird images of Ruby's hair at his trial. Bottom left and center, he looks pretty bald, with a very low rim of permanent hair on the sides, and yet, he still has this short, thick tuft of hair front and center? That is not how men go bald. By the time, your hairline on the sides is that low, you've got nothing but fuzz on top- if anything. And if he had retained such a tuft of hair front and center, why keep it so short? There are many more images of him showing long strands of hair combed straight back, like the bottom right. Of course, that's fake too; he didn't have long strands. Above left, he seems to have a horizontal comb-over, which you don't see in other photos, and that's fake too.

The enhancement of Ruby's hair was a relentless process that was done without any regard for consistency. It was a free-for-all of variations. Apparently, the guidance to the artists was: anything goes.

And why did they do it? It was all because James Bookhout wore a thick, garish wig that anticipated Howard Cosell.

Jack Ruby really was innocent. He was tricked into believing that he shot Oswald. He was mentally ill. He wasn't hearing voices or seeing things, but he was mentally deficient. And he was respectful of and submissive to authority to an insane degree. He let them overrule his own mind and his own memory. Why believe you did something just because The Man tells you so? The moment they told him that he shot Oswald, when he knew that he was just standing there and they jumped him, he should have screamed, "I did not! I was just standing there, and you jumped me. If you think you're going to get away with this, I've got news for you. Now, I want a lawyer." But, Ruby never showed any defiance at all. He was like a little child. People think he was a Mafioso. He was a little kid in a man's body.
