  Speaker 1: by former Dallas Please Crime Lab detective our W. Rusty
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Livingston and Joe this bad boy. It's not too thick.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It's what we called slim thick.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: It's a medium.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, medium, it's deceptively thick thick as we'll find out
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: what the page count. But yeah, JFK First Day Evidence
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: by Gary Savage. Joe, tell us a little bit about
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: this book, Hi.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Sure well. It was published in January of nineteen ninety
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: three by author Gary Savage, who was the nephew of mister.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: R. W.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Quote Rusty Livingston, one of the members of the DPD
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Crime Lab in nineteen sixty three. It was published by
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: self published, wrote edited through his small publishing company, the
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: shop Chappe Press. And I say Choppe because there are
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: two pieces in that from Monroe Louisiana, and the book
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: is essentially a presentation and commentary on Livington's private archive, which,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: as you mentioned, was in a briefcase for thirty years.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: You can get it on Amazon used at for as
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: low as thirteen dollars and nine cents. It goes up
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: from there. You could get it at a similar price
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: from aid Books for about seventeen dollars used. There are
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: two new copies for over one hundred dollars one hundred
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: and four dollars. Specifically, it's not available via Kindle. As
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: far as I could tell, there are twelve chapters total.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: There is a preface, acknowledgments section, a prologue, and also
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: on introduction before chapter one, which starts at around page thirty,
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: and after there's an epilogue, appendix, and a section called
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: work sited, as well as a bibliography after each chapter.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: It's footnoted and Gary Savage obviously the nephew of our
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: w Rusty Livingston, not a professional historian or a journalist,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: private citizen with a strong personal interest in the Kennedy assassination,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: with kind of a focus on defending the reputation of
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: his uncle and the DPD. And you know it definitely.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Rob has a strong Loane nut Lean.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Kind of that. It does, Joe.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Uh uh. You know, I've had this book for a
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: while and I wanted to get it because there was
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: some hooplah surrounding this book, you know, as far as
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: being outed as new evidence right where.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: We've seen that before.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this might be. Hold on, let me guessed off,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: this might be Jefferson Morley's first nothing burger ever made
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: with two buns and a piece of meat. Of course,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I say that jokingly, but kind of not allegedly.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Allegedly.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Now right here on the back of the book, folks,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: it tells you this is not a conspiracy book, Joe,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: It's not. It is a valuable reference tool, sir. And
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: it says now, there is a lot of photographs in
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: this book, over one hundred and forty original photographs. Not
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: copies from the Warrant Commission, not copies at NARA, not
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: FBI copies.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: These are.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Mostly photos of Oswald, evidence photos, mug shots, morg photos,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, you name it.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think some Beckley photos too.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Anything the DPD took pictures of this guy made himself
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: what he likes to call reference copies. Joe, reference copies.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure what that means.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: But yeah, well you know, he he, he hoarded a
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: bunch of this evidence because it does tell him here
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the story of.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: How the FBI.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Was coming for all their evidence, right, because it was
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Police Department that collected a lot of this
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: evidence first and took these pictures and found this stuff.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: And the FBI, of course stepped in rather quickly after
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the assassination, within it a day or two and started
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: demanding that they send the evidence to Washington and orchestrated that.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: That is when several I should say, because mister Livingstone,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I presume, was not the only one to sock away
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: a little first day evidence, if you know what I'm saying.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: In fact, you know, we know the story about who's
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: his buddy, oh Man Roscoe White, that's it, and his wife,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of course, Roscoe was dead by the time of the HSCAA,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: but she came forward with another pose of the backyard
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: photograph that had never been seen before. Well guess who
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: else had the same pose in his briefcase thirty years later,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: old Rusty living Rusty. Yeah, so this was a photo
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: but that they never turned over to the to the FBI.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Or the Warrant Commission they kept an in house in
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: their own files. They also tout in here see a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Dallas police photograph of the Minox spy camera that the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: FBI tried to make disappear. Now again, I say that's
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: why I said this is kind of a Loan nut
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Lean book, because there are some things in here that
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: they put, you know, that kind.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Of make you hmm okay.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: They even addressed the whole Marguerite Oswald. There was another
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: backyard photograph pose supposedly of him holding the rifle above
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: his head that him that her and Marina burned when
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: they when they found out that Lee Harvey Oswald had
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: been arrested, and the negatives for that one never found either.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: He has included in this book the actual transcripts, actual
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: transcripts allegedly from the Dick de Belt recordings of the
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Dallas Police Channels one and two show and it details
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: in here. How I mean they really are? They really
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: really praise Lieutenant Carl Day for his prowess as an investigator.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Yet you know, after they sent the rifle off to
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: the FBI, the FBI said, well, we can't find any
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: fingerprints on this rifle. You know, but allegedly the story
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: is in the book. They found fingerprints on the trigger
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: housing of the rifle that they dusted, but they never
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: lifted them because the FBI took the rifle a little
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: too fast for him. They were told to hand it over.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: He wasn't done doing what he's doing. But the photographs
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: are in the book of this trigger housing, and yeah,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: you can see latent fingerprints on it. Okay, but you
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: have to realize, I don't know how many people touch
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: this rifle without wearing gloves. I mean, they're up on
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: the sixth floor examining it in the Eliah film, you know,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: they're passing around looking at it, trying to read it.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: You know, you see Fritz carrying it at some point.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: You see Carl Day walking around with it, you know,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: outside the school book depository and in the police headquarters
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: holding it above his head. So what they're doing is
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: he is comparing a photograph of a fingerprint to Oswald's
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: fingerprint card that they got from him.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: After he was dead.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: So there's a picture in the book of Oswald and
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: the Morgue, and Livingstone tells the story how they went
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: there and they used inkless fingerprint cards and rolled his
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: hands and got printed ink fingerprint cards to compare to. So,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how much I trust the evidence. Now,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: what I will say that I like about this book, Joe,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: is that you know how when you open a book
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and pages feel like paper, you know, paper pages right, right,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: and then you get to the middle of the book
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: and then maybe there's a glossy feeling section where all
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: the photos are.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm glad I'm relating that eloquently. Well, this entire
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: book is printed on that glossy feeling paper because there's
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: so many photographs in it, every page feels like that,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and that may be why it's possibly so uh deceivingly
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: lim thick, if you will. But they're all glossy, and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: you know, it makes for a nice, a nice feel.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: It's a book, you know.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I said, it's glossy reflects lightwell, so it's
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: very easy to read.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: That fact that factors in the rating.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Quality. Right. Yeah, there's other things in here.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I talked about the palm print allegedly found, he says,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: and I'll quote this here from the book. Lieutenant Day
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: told us that after he had photographed the trigger housing
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: prints and been stopped by Captain Doty. He continued work
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: on the rifle under the order of Captain Fritz, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: it was at that time he noticed a print sticking
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: out from the barrel. He said it was obvious that
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: part of it was under the wooden stock, so he
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: took the stock off and finished dusting the barrel. He
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: said he could tell it was part of a palm print,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: so he proceeded with a lift. He told Rusty and
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: me that he could tell it wasn't put there recently
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: by the way it took the fingerprint powder. He said,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: what makes a print of this sort is a lack
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: of moisture, and this print had dried out, so he
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: said he took a small camel hair brush, dipped it
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: in fingerprint powder, and lightly brushed it. He then placed
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: a strip of two inch scotch tape over the developed
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: print and rubbed it down, before finally lifting the tape
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: containing the print off and placed it on a card.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: He said he then compared the lyft to Oswald's palm
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: print card, and he was certain that.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: It was Oswald's.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: He also said that after the lift, he could still
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: see an impression of the palm print left on the barrel.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: So again, in order for this palm print to be
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: on this barrel, it had to be put on there
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: while the gun was disassembled, because the stock covered it,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and it was old.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: And so you have allegedly here a palm print, an
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: old one that they compared visually, I'm assuming to Oswald's
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: fingerprint card. Now they did Joe pull a Joan Mellon
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: with this book, right, They went and retained the services
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: of a Jerry Powderill, who is an expert fingerprint examiner
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: with the City of West Monroe, Louisiana.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Powder L.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: You're gonna make me say that again, pow drill.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Okay, got it? P ow d r I l l Okay.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: It sounded like an alien's for a.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Second, Jerry L. Pow drill Okay, okay. And here was
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: his expert conclusion.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: He says, in October ninety one, you approached me with
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: a request to compare Layton fingerprints to known ink prints.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: At that time, I received from you the following items.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: And he goes through in states what he got from him,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: you know, as far as the photographs and the fingerprints
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: card and all that stuff, he says, upon examination of
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: the above listed items, the inkless card and the known
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: ink impressions on quote JFK Exhibit F four hundred were
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: compared to the unknown partial Laytons shown in the four
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: black and white photographs, and this was.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: The trigger.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Housing examination revealed that the right middle finger of Lee
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Harvey Oswald and partial Layton scene in one of the
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: black and white photos have the following similarities. Both were
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: ulner loops, which is the type of fingerprint pattern. Both
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: have a ridge count of fifteen or sixteen friction ridge
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: count from delta to core. Three points of identity in
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the photographs matched three points in the known ink cards.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Three other points of identity in the photograph Layton had
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: very similar characteristics as in the known ink cards, but
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: positive points of identity cannot be made. So in conclusion,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Joe above, looking at the above mentioned photos and ink
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: cards for countless hours, I can say that sufficient evidence
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: does not exist to conclude that the Layton print is
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: in fact that of Lee Harvey Oswald. However, there are
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: enough similarities to suggest that it is possible that they
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: are one of the same. So again, maybe I mean
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: not the first nothing Burger in the case, of course,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: but it's a nothing burger. Nonetheless, Now why they would
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: publish this in their book, I mean, I guess it's honest,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: honest publishing. I guess even though you don't have something
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: that worked out too good for you. You know, sometimes
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: you swing and you hit a home run, Joe, and
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: sometimes it's a swinging to miss right.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: But you know, there's a lot of photographs that are
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: in here that, like I said, are rarely seen. He
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, they pretty much say that Oswald had a
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: minox camera. You know, you can see it right in
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: the evidence photo as clear as they Then you talk
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: about a map that was drawn by the Dallas Crime
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Lab detective Studebaker of the layout of the sixth floor
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: crime scene, and it was never turned over to the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Warrant Commission, And he had a copy of that, and
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: it was drawn on graph paper, interestingly enough, and it
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: details the exact location of bag shells rifle as found
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: on the sixth floor.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: But it's very very small.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: It tells you where the pomb prints were, where the
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: windows were, where the rifle was, just you know, some
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: things that you've probably never seen before, because we've all
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: seen the the Warren Commission, FBI recon reconstruction or crime
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: scene photos if you will, of the school book depository
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: that are in the Warren Commission exhibits. But you know what,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the Dallas police took their own photos of the sixth
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: floor that day, and they took a shitload of them,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: and there is a lot of them in this book
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: that I've never seen before. So for that alone, you know,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not mad at this book. You know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not mad at it at all. It does have
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a little bit of value.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: In that sense.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, some of these photos are crazy, Joe like,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: like I've never seen it before, So in that sense,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: it's good.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of photos that that he took book.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: From Lee Harvey Oswald's possessions that are probably very rarely seeing,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: some stuff that when he was in Russia hanging out
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: with friends, and all kinds of stuff I've never seen before.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: They may be in the Warran commissioned exhibit somewhere, but
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: you might have.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: To dig for him.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: But all in all, Joe, I mean, that's that's about it.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: I'm not mad at it. But if you could, dude,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: give us your your impressions of the book.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, I think you summed it
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: up really nicely. There there is some benefit to this
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: book almost. It makes me think of our review of
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: Robert Oswalt's book also alone Nutterer, but did have some
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: interesting information on Oswalt and their childhood and stuff like that.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: And I don't know how many of the hundred plus
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: pictures were unreleased at that point in nineteen ninety three.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I would guess a few of them are not widely circulated.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Obviously lone not lean. I obviously don't agree with a
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: lot of it, but like you mentioned, there are some
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: interesting little tidbits. So based on the quality of the
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: book right of good quality, and based on the fact
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: that a lot of things seem to be permanently what
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: do they call it memory hold in the internet, right
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: pictures seem to disappear. If you could get this book
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: for fifteen bucks, I'd say just for the photos, it's
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: not horrible. So based on that, I think I'm just
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: gonna give it. And I've been going between a four
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: and a five, but based on your description of its quality,
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: I think I'm going to lean higher and just give
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: it a five out of ten. Worth it alone and
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: considering the time, nineteen ninety three, right, AARB is really
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: just getting started. I think i'll give it a five
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: out of ten. Five guns up.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Joe. How about you?
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Well, you make a good point there about the aar RB.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if they went after this guy,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Rusty Livingston's files. I don't know that they could since
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: it was a Dallas Police department thing and not federal
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: government type of thing. But you know that was part
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: of what the ar a ARB was doing.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: I get it wrong, like half the time.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I know a r RB, Yeah, RB, I.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Say a r RB all the time.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: It is RB. I always say a RB.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Well I got it wrong.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Records Review Board a r r B is right. So
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: but yeah, they were tasked with compiling and collecting any
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: documents related to JFK. They were out there that maybe
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: we didn't have. And you know, when guys like this
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: come forward with a briefcase full of shit or suitcase
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: full of shit that they've been sitting on for thirty years,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: you think they might would have asked for it. I
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: don't know if they did.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: But when you have.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Original a ridge, no photographs or copies of original photographs,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you know, in good shape. I mean, that's kind of
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: invaluable stuff. And I don't know whatever happened to this
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: guy's collection or what happened to it or anything like that.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: I have no idea. Apparently this guy wrote wrote one
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: book and that was that.
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think he died in twenty sixteen.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Who's savage.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm sure Rusty Livingston died way before that.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: But yeah, again, it's it's not an overly loane nut
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: book where it like a Posner or a Boogliosi, where
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: they keep shoving shit down your throat, you.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Know, page after page after page. This is not like that.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: They admit their mistakes. They give it to you honest.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: If it didn't match, they it didn't match, you know.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: And there is there is some value in this book
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: with with the photos and the evidence, because you have
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: to remember, you know, the DPD collected at all first,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: and they make that case in here, the fact that
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: they were very proud of. He feels like the Dallas
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Police Department did an excellent job in collecting the evidence
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: and analyzing the evidence before the FBI came in and
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: kind of said here, give me that shit.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Right, So With that.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Being said, for this book's value, I'm going to give
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: it a solid six Joe six guns up.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: That's respectable. I agree it has It has has value,
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: especially when you consider, which we always do in our ratings,
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: when it was published, right.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this is thirty years after the assassination,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: This was over thirty years ago from today.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Does it hold up? I mean it is what it is.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Loan nutters love to pull it out and say, well,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: back in this day, in this book, you know, they
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: said they found Layton Oswald's Laton fingerprints, but I read
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: you the letter from mister Powderill who says they cannot
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: conclusively state that those prints came from Oswald. You're comparing
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: a photo of fingerprints with a fingerprint card from a
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: dead man.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: So interesting.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: They love to use that wording right, it could most
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: likely be or could possibly be right. They love to
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: do that and then and then harp on that right
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: as as fact.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: That's one of their favorite things to do. Yes, yes,
• 25:48
