Above: Death Valley. That's me blocking out the scenery.

News 1: In late May and early June 2020, during the coronavirus shutdown, I added an essay on the Dictabelt evidence to chapter 6 of my online book. For easy access, it is also available here Debunking the Dictabelt

NEWS 2: On 1-23-20, I made an appearance on Black Op radio. I stuttered, stammered, and made a few mistakes, but those with an interest in the Kennedy assassination should find it worthwhile. https://blackopradio.com/archives2020.html

NEWS 3: On President's Day, 2017, I put the first part of my article on the election of Donald Trump online. It was intended as a counterpoint to the bulk of the articles on the election, which either blindly supported Trump or focused on the circus atmosphere surrounding him. This article does neither. Instead, it is a sober and sobering look at the statistical strangeness of the election, and the possibility something strange was afoot. Here it is: From Obama Nation to Abomination (It will be interesting to reread this in 2021.)

NEWS 4. On 11-21-15, at the JFK Lancer conference in Dallas, I gave a presentation on the fingerprint evidence linking Lee Harvey Oswald to the assassination of President Kennedy. A slightly edited version of this presentation is included below. There is a lot to digest, but I believe you will find this presentation both illuminating and infuriating. You can read it at your own pace by clicking on the right arrow. Enjoy.

NEWS 5: On September 27, 2014, I spoke on the single-bullet theory at a conference in Bethesda, Maryland timed to correspond to the 50th anniversary of the Warren Report. The list of speakers included Oswald's friend Buell Wesley Frazier, participants in official investigations such as Dr. Cyril Wecht, Prof. Robert Blakey, and Robert Groden, and journalists and authors such as Russ Baker, Jefferson Morley, and Anthony Summers. The conference was presented by the Assassination Archives and Research Center. Anti-Castro Cuban Antonio Veciana finally confirmed that his CIA handler, Maurice Bishop--the one he claimed to see with Oswald--was in fact David Atlee Phillips, a high-ranking CIA officer whose appearance and personal history matched up perfectly with Veciana's description of Bishop. History was made. Videos of these presentations are now available online, here: http://aarclibrary.org/aarc-2014-conference-videos/

There was a problem with my video, however. The slides were inserted out of sync with my discussion. Rather than wait for this to be resolved (because it probably never will be) I went ahead and made a movie in which the slides are presented rapid fire, but where the viewer can pause and read each slide if they wish. This is available here:

NEWS 6: On 10-17-13, as part of the Passing the Torch Conference put on by the Cyril Wecht Institute of Forensic Science and Law, I gave a presentation at Duquesne University. My presentation dealt chiefly with Kennedy's head wounds. Unfortunately, my presentation was scheduled to coincide with Dr. Wecht's own presentation, across campus, and during a rainstorm. As a result, many of those who wanted to attend my presentation, were unable to make it. As a consequence, then, I created the following "letter," which I supplied to a doctor who missed the presentation. This "letter" explains the logic behind one of my key findings, namely, that the supposed exit on the top of Kennedy's head was actually a tangential wound of both entrance and exit. Press the right arrow and read. (Note: this material is covered in more detail in chapters 16-18b of my online book, below.)



A New Perspective on the Kennedy Assassination
                                                                                                                                                                      The online book below is a greatly expanded and improved version of a PowerPoint presentation started in 2004. I spent more than four years full time researching and writing it, and have continued adding to it in the years since its unveling. It is the synthesis of over 50,000 pages of government reports, sworn testimony, oral histories, medical texts, forensics journals, and newspaper articles, not to mention hundreds of hours of film footage. While I am neither a detective nor a doctor I believe I have gained a familiarity with the material comparable to that of anyone yet to write on the subject.

Here it is:
Volume 1: The Kennedy Assassination, Politics, and Propaganda
Chapters 1 and 1b summarize the events immediately following Kennedy's assassination, and demonstrate that political pressure and a thoroughly bewildered media not only interfered with the investigation of his death, but pushed the Warren Commission towards its inaccurate conclusions.  
Chapter 1b: Establishing the "Facts"

Volume 2: The Cover-Up and The Cover-up of the Cover-up
Chapters 2 and 2b explore the early investigations performed by the FBI and Secret Service, and demonstrate their utter failure to establish as simple a matter as which shots hit the President, and where he was when hit.
Chapters 3-3c explore the investigation and conclusions of the Warren Commission, and demonstrate its failure to honestly present the evidence for its conclusion Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, killed President Kennedy.
Chapters 4-4g review the evidence for Oswald's guilt, and demonstrate that the conclusions of the Warren Commission were a castle made of sand. (These chapters have been re-written and re-numbered numerous times. They underwent a major overhaul in 2017-2018. If you think you know what's in them, you're wrong.)
Volume 3: A New Perspective on the Kennedy Assassination--The Eyewitnesses
Chapters 5-8 present a comprehensive study of the eyewitness statements regarding the shooting of President Kennedy, and demonstrate the absurdity of the single-assassin scenario currently in vogue.
Chapter 9 analyzes the statements in chapters 5-8b, and presents some fresh ideas on the shooting of the president.

Volume 4. A New Perspective on the Kennedy Assassination--The Medical Evidence
Chapters 10-12c examine the various representations of the President's back wound, and how the repeated and ongoing misrepresentation of the location of this back wound is central to the single-assassin conclusion.
Chapter 10: Examining the Examinations
Chapters 13-15 examine the evidence regarding the President's head wounds, and attempt to resolve a number of "mysteries" that should never have been "mysteries".
Chapters 16-17 discuss wound ballistics, and use the autopsy report, autopsy photos, and Zapruder film to develop a new theory on the shooting of the president. 
Chapters 18-18b discuss Kennedy's skull x-rays, and their confirmation for this theory.
Chapter 18: X-Ray Specs
Chapter 18b: More Fun with X-rays
Chapters 18c-18d discuss the widespread misrepresentation of the Parkland Hospital witness evidence by the so-called "research" community.
Chapter 18c: Reason to Doubt
Chapter 18d: Reason to Believe

Volume 5. The Bonfire of Insanities--Sniffing Out Truth in a Blizzard of Lies
Chapters 19-19d discuss the difficulties one encounters in researching the assassination--when so much of what has been printed or broadcast has been lies.
Chapter 19a: Stuck in the Middle with You
Chapter 19c: Mr. Holland's Colossal Blunder
Chapter 19d: Lost in the Jungle with Kurtz
Chapter 20 presents a unified theory regarding the shooting of President Kennedy, along with some final thoughts and observations.
Chapter 20: Conclusions and Confusions
Chapter 21 is an attempt to resolve a related mystery, and is an investigation regarding President Johnson's actions on 11-22-63.
Chapter 21: Rorschach Test

Here is a blog on which I vent my spleen about the current political situation: Life in Suberia

Here is a blog on which I tracked the media's response to the 50th anniversary of the assassination:

Sometimes I come across a government record or file that is largely unknown, or is only available on the catacomb-like NARA website. For the benefit of my fellow researchers, I store these here: Hard to Find Stuff
Here is a quick list reflecting my current thoughts on the assassination, that is, why I remain a "conspiracy theorist" even though I feel certain much of what has been proposed by the "research community" is nonsense: Fun With Lists: a Quick Look at the Evidence
Here is my review of JFK: The Smoking Gun: The Smoking Gun That Lied: a Review of JFK: The Smoking Gun
Here is my review of John McAdams' book JFK Assassination Logic: How To Think About Claims of Conspiracy: The Gospel According to John McAdams
Here is a blog in which I discussed Vincent Bugliosi's book Reclaiming History: Reclaiming History from Reclaiming History
