The Central Intelligence Agency has always maintained that it failed to capture any photographs of Lee Harvey Oswald, the accused assassin, when he visited the Soviet Embassy and Cuban Consulate in Mexico City six weeks before President John F. Kennedy was struck down in Dallas.
CIA officials have repeated this claim to all of the governmental investigations of the ambush in Dallas. They have insisted that none of the surveillance cameras trained on the Soviet and Cuban offices were operating at the time the Oswald entered and exited while seeking to obtain a visa to travel to Havana and Moscow.
To test this claim, JFK Facts went looking for people who might know whether the CIA’s account was true or not. To be specific, we went looking for former CIA employees in Mexico City. And we found one.
This is how we got the story that revealed the CIA wasn’t being truthful about not capturing photos of Oswald just weeks before JFK was killed.
