They need to release all versions of the Zapruder film, and all associated chain of custody and communication records related to it. Doug Horne's images were damning and he said in color the alterations to the film are even more egregious.

Please add the films of Darnell and Wiegman, currently being held by NBC Universal, to the list of essential documents. Because they captured the aftermath of the murder, they are important JFKA records under the ARRB's definition: any information, regardless of its form or who possesses it, that helps an understanding of what happened.

Roger I doubt either of these films qualify since they do not belong to the archives or CIA

I'm not all that interested in any films of the actual shooting unless they can show they went through CIA hands The films don't prove anything that isn't already public knowledge unless they show a shooter

The most damning pieces of evidence are the doctors all saying the head wound is from the front Most, if not all, are ER doctors that have seen plenty of gunshot wounds

They have never been able to duplicate what they say the magic bullet did without severe damage to a bullet There have been numerous attempts

The final problem I have is Oswald was on one of the most top secret bases where they flew the U-2 spy planes from

Why would the government let him leave the country and come back in so easily

Furthermore, is it remotely credible that during the height of the anti-communist hysteria with its purges of suspected communists and communist sympathizers in government, the US military, particularly the US Marine Corps, would send an avowed Marxist to work at a top secret U2 spy plane air base in Japan unless the military knew Oswald was in fact an undercover intelligence operative and that his Marxist rants were part of his cover? Let's get real.

I wonder if we should volunteer one of our researchers to join the administration to be right there to help reportingg to the chief of staff. Chad, yourself, Larry or whoever would have general support and community of researchers respect. In a way like all leaders the president will feel he did his bit and it’s up to his officials to deliver. Maybe adding people to the inside would be helpful. We may have only one shot at this! Just a thought.

Bill- I made it known to RFK Jr and the transition team that i could recommend independent researchers to ensure that the public interest is represented in any such reviews

The People should be represented by at least three, preferably six, renowned independent researchers, perhaps each having a special expertise.

What is stopping any of these agencies from oopsie just flat out destroying any record they want to?

Nothing, if they really want to.

If a list was made of all the evidence already destroyed, it would be voluminous.

This is why I'm not holding my breath on any breakthroughs in the case resulting from the records release. Nothing stopping them from filling in the redactions with whatever they want to either.

In addition to the documents, could Marina still provide a lot of information? What was she forced by the government to say during the investigation and to the Warren Commission? What's the story on the backyard photos? Did she take them? How many? Was she originally an undercover honeypot in Minsk and a Soviet intelligence operative who used Oswald to get into the US?

Fascinating new video:

"To be sure, no single one of these documents alone proves a conspiracy to kill the liberal president."

Are you suggesting that conspiracy has not been proven?
