Latest / The Lone Gunman Podcast : JFK Assassination / How To Become A Better JFK Researcher Pt.1
Transcript
- 0:19Speaker 1: What is up, everybody. Welcome into the second episode of
- 0:23Speaker 1: Random Research Ramblings with Rob. Not to be confused with
- 0:28Speaker 1: Hazard Is History by Henry Winkler. If I can say
- 0:31Speaker 1: that in one mouthful, it's funny. I decided to do
- 0:35Speaker 1: this show and name with this, and then I started
- 0:37Speaker 1: seeing these ads on Facebook for hazard Is History with
- 0:41Speaker 1: Henry Winkler. I'm like, well, I ain't that a bitch,
- 0:44Speaker 1: But I digress. Not inspired by that, just inspired by
- 0:50Speaker 1: alliteration and the fact that I can't say it all
- 0:53Speaker 1: the time, and it's funny when I can't. But anyway,
- 0:57Speaker 1: welcome back to Random Research Ramblings with Rob. Today, I
- 1:02Speaker 1: am going to pull back the curtain a little bit.
- 1:08Speaker 1: I am going to grab you by your hand and
- 1:11Speaker 1: I am going to walk you behind the curtain. We're
- 1:15Speaker 1: going to break the fourth wall, if you will a
- 1:16Speaker 1: little bit, and I'm going to try to help make
- 1:21Speaker 1: you a better jfk assassination researcher. I say this all
- 1:27Speaker 1: the time on the show, do your own research, and
- 1:33Speaker 1: sometimes people can be very put off by that statement
- 1:39Speaker 1: because it seems like a very daunting task, especially when
- 1:44Speaker 1: you don't know where to start or you don't know
- 1:46Speaker 1: where to look. What I can tell you is the
- 1:50Speaker 1: worst place to do your JFK research is on any
- 1:56Speaker 1: kind of social media platform. Okay, seriously, take a lot
- 2:04Speaker 1: of that stuff with a grain of salt and know
- 2:06Speaker 1: that most of it is click bait, meaning they make
- 2:11Speaker 1: money every time you click on their thing, and they
- 2:14Speaker 1: normally have the most outlandish, untrue disinformation out there to
- 2:21Speaker 1: get you to click on their bait. But there are
- 2:27Speaker 1: legitimate places that you can start that aren't very daunting,
- 2:33Speaker 1: aren't very complicated, And I'm going to show you what
- 2:37Speaker 1: those are today Because I know a lot about a
- 2:42Speaker 1: little bit, and I know a little bit about a lot,
- 2:47Speaker 1: but I don't know a lot about a lot. A
- 2:52Speaker 1: lot of the things that and topics that we talk
- 2:54Speaker 1: about here on the show are not things that I'm,
- 2:58Speaker 1: you know, one hundred percent familiar with, and I'm learning
- 3:02Speaker 1: in the process of putting a show together just as
- 3:08Speaker 1: you are hearing it. So in order to try to
- 3:13Speaker 1: bring you the most reliable information on the show for
- 3:20Speaker 1: you to partake in, I have some resources that I
- 3:25Speaker 1: have used as a crutch for many years, because if
- 3:33Speaker 1: you don't have a shortcut, and if you don't have
- 3:37Speaker 1: a way to navigate and scour and skim for information
- 3:42Speaker 1: that you're looking for. You are going to be going
- 3:48Speaker 1: down some way of time wasted searching for what you're
- 3:52Speaker 1: looking for. And that's one thing that we don't have
- 3:55Speaker 1: a lot of, and that's time. You know, I work
- 4:00Speaker 1: full time. You know this is not my job. Okay,
- 4:03Speaker 1: this is a passion project, if you will. I have
- 4:06Speaker 1: a full time job, I have a family, I have
- 4:09Speaker 1: other interests. This is a passion project now because it
- 4:14Speaker 1: has been a passion of mine for the past thirty
- 4:17Speaker 1: five years, I have had the benefit of consuming a
- 4:22Speaker 1: lot of different information over the years about this subject
- 4:27Speaker 1: and different aspects of it. Yes, of course, it's very
- 4:32Speaker 1: hard to remember everything. So oftentimes, you know, I have
- 4:39Speaker 1: to refresh my memory. I have to go looking for
- 4:43Speaker 1: new things about topics. So today I'm gonna, like I said,
- 4:48Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull back to the curtain a little bit.
- 4:50Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you how I do it, because I've
- 4:52Speaker 1: been asked this question, how do you do this? How
- 4:54Speaker 1: do you come up with two different show topics twice
- 4:58Speaker 1: a week and be able to talk about them for
- 5:01Speaker 1: two hours and have these documents? And I'm going to
- 5:05Speaker 1: tell you. It's easier than you think, Okay. And I
- 5:12Speaker 1: know some people don't have a lot of time in
- 5:15Speaker 1: their life and maybe they're interested. There's a difference between
- 5:20Speaker 1: being interested in a subject and being passionate about a subject.
- 5:24Speaker 1: I would say I have more than an interest. It's
- 5:27Speaker 1: a passion. It's an obsession. Probably that's not very unhealthy,
- 5:35Speaker 1: but it is a very paced obsession. Like I don't
- 5:39Speaker 1: spend hours every day looking at this stuff. I don't.
- 5:44Speaker 1: I don't have it to do it, and if I did,
- 5:48Speaker 1: I wouldn't have a life. So I'm going to show
- 5:51Speaker 1: you the shortcuts that I use to help me find information,
- 5:57Speaker 1: and anybody can do this, and I'm I'm going to
- 6:00Speaker 1: show you everything here in this video. All of the
- 6:04Speaker 1: links that we're going to be talking about here in
- 6:06Speaker 1: this show are in the description of this video. I'm
- 6:11Speaker 1: going to list all of these resources for you to
- 6:14Speaker 1: check out, so make sure when you go there, make
- 6:17Speaker 1: sure you bookmark them. Okay. Now, the first thing I
- 6:20Speaker 1: want you to do is to create a repository for
- 6:24Speaker 1: yourself for documents digital documents. And what I mean by
- 6:30Speaker 1: that is, if you have a Gmail account, Okay, you
- 6:35Speaker 1: have access to something called Google Drive, which is basically
- 6:41Speaker 1: a cloud based service that allows you to upload documents,
- 6:48Speaker 1: m P three's video, anything you want. And you know
- 6:54Speaker 1: it does have a limit, but I believe it's it's
- 6:57Speaker 1: a very high limit. For the free account. I think
- 6:59Speaker 1: you get like two giar abytes of space, which is
- 7:02Speaker 1: a lot when you're talking about digital documents. But you
- 7:05Speaker 1: want to create yourself a repository, and I think I'm
- 7:08Speaker 1: not familiar with iPhones. I know there's an iCloud that
- 7:11Speaker 1: you could use. There's things like Dropbox as well that
- 7:15Speaker 1: are free. To a point, you know, you don't need
- 7:17Speaker 1: to pay for any of this stuff. There's plenty of
- 7:19Speaker 1: space in these free repositories to hous what you will
- 7:24Speaker 1: be wanting to keep, and I'll show that to you
- 7:28Speaker 1: as well. So let's get started. I have a very
- 7:34Speaker 1: specific set of websites that when I'm diving into something
- 7:44Speaker 1: specifically that I want to know that I use. And
- 7:50Speaker 1: the first one we're going to be talking about here
- 7:54Speaker 1: is the John Armstrong Collection at Baylor University. Okay, so
- 8:03Speaker 1: let me pull this up here. This is what the
- 8:09Speaker 1: website will look like when you get here. As you
- 8:12Speaker 1: can see it says Baylor Collection of Political Materials JFK.
- 8:19Speaker 1: John Armstrong Collection. Now, if you were simply this is it.
- 8:28Speaker 1: There's a two thousand and eighty four collections, and within
- 8:36Speaker 1: each collection is a set of images like this first
- 8:40Speaker 1: one here says nineteen fifty nine non military friends of
- 8:44Speaker 1: Albert Schweitzer, the college you know that Oswald applied to.
- 8:48Speaker 1: And if you look over to the left, you'll see
- 8:50Speaker 1: that there's eleven images in this file. And what that
- 8:54Speaker 1: means is there's eleven documents. We'll actually ten because all
- 8:58Speaker 1: of John Armstrong's stuff in here has this cover page
- 9:03Speaker 1: and it's not really considered a document, So always subtract
- 9:07Speaker 1: one from the amount of images because the first one counts.
- 9:11Speaker 1: So there's ten actual documents in this file folder. But
- 9:15Speaker 1: and this is just if you want to browse. Okay,
- 9:19Speaker 1: you can just browse if you want to. I believe
- 9:22Speaker 1: everything is in here in numerical and then alphabetical order.
- 9:26Speaker 1: So as you can see as I'm scrolling down through here,
- 9:27Speaker 1: there's a lot of nineteen fifty nine different things, marine offices,
- 9:33Speaker 1: Oswald discharge, the Macbeth rooming House, letters to the United
- 9:38Speaker 1: States Marine Corps, New Orleans articles in nineteen fifty nine
- 9:43Speaker 1: oz Walt spelled with the T passengers on the SS Marion,
- 9:47Speaker 1: like you know, and so on and so forth. And
- 9:49Speaker 1: you can scroll down and you can just skim through
- 9:52Speaker 1: any of these that you want to. Now we're getting
- 9:54Speaker 1: down to the CIA. You see Alpha sixty six blaming Cuba, Bush,
- 10:02Speaker 1: CIA killings, CIA Mafia Plotz, EUGENIEO. Martinez, Gilberto Lopez, Jay
- 10:08Speaker 1: Walton Moore and so on and so forth. Oh look
- 10:11Speaker 1: there's Lawrence Howard. And you look over here. There's one
- 10:14Speaker 1: hundred and nine images in this file for Lawrence Howard. Okay,
- 10:19Speaker 1: the CIA in New Orleans and so on and so forth.
- 10:24Speaker 1: You get to the bottom, there's twenty four pages like this, okay,
- 10:30Speaker 1: and you can just skim through open different ones up
- 10:33Speaker 1: that you want to or if you're looking for something specific,
- 10:38Speaker 1: We're going to scroll back up to the top here
- 10:41Speaker 1: and I will show you how to search. So this
- 10:43Speaker 1: little search bar right here, this is search Baylor Collection. Okay.
- 10:47Speaker 1: And we're just gonna do something just because it's top
- 10:50Speaker 1: of mind. It's the last show we did. I want
- 10:52Speaker 1: to find things on Buell Fraser, Okay, So I'm gonna
- 10:56Speaker 1: type in Buell Fraser okay, enter, All right, here's what
- 11:09Speaker 1: pops up. All right, there's a couple different things here.
- 11:13Speaker 1: So we have this first one here has Buell Wesley
- 11:16Speaker 1: Fraser or Wesley Buell Fraser from November twenty second, sixty three,
- 11:20Speaker 1: and it has eighteen images in it. And then right
- 11:23Speaker 1: below that we have another one that's missing the bule okay,
- 11:27Speaker 1: and it has fourteen images in it. And then we
- 11:30Speaker 1: get down to where this is a New Orleans witness
- 11:33Speaker 1: named Jack Fraser. Okay, we don't need that guy, the
- 11:36Speaker 1: FBI agent Robert Fraser. Don't need that guy, right, And
- 11:40Speaker 1: then it starts getting down into things that you're not
- 11:43Speaker 1: gonna see the Fraser name, but maybe either Buell or
- 11:48Speaker 1: Fraser is mentioned somewhere in one of these images inside
- 11:52Speaker 1: this document. And I'll show you what I mean. Okay,
- 11:56Speaker 1: So let's go back up to the top one here,
- 11:59Speaker 1: and we're gonna click this, okay. And what that does
- 12:07Speaker 1: is it opens up a viewer now right up here
- 12:13Speaker 1: at the top, and the blue with the number five
- 12:16Speaker 1: beside it. Okay, that's letting me know that the terms
- 12:20Speaker 1: Bule Fraser together appear on documents inside this folder five
- 12:27Speaker 1: times okay, in five different places. Yet there's eighteen images
- 12:33Speaker 1: inside this file. So if I just want to see
- 12:36Speaker 1: the pages that say Buele Fraser, I could go through
- 12:41Speaker 1: the hits, like this is the first one, but this
- 12:43Speaker 1: is the cover page. Okay, so let's go to the
- 12:46Speaker 1: next one. Boom. All right, Well that's you say, Rob,
- 12:52Speaker 1: that's really small. Okay. Well it has a magnifying glass.
- 12:56Speaker 1: All right, you can pump it up a little bit
- 12:58Speaker 1: and you can read. Okay. This is from December eleventh.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Missus ste May Williams of thirty four to twenty nine
- 13:11Speaker 1: West Street advised she did not know Lee Harvey Oswald.
- 13:16Speaker 1: She stated she and her husband have been visited visited
- 13:20Speaker 1: with her daughter, but her inter the hospital and this
- 13:22Speaker 1: caused the changing plans and has prolonged their visit. She
- 13:26Speaker 1: stated that on the morning of November twenty seconds she
- 13:28Speaker 1: did get a glimpse of a man through the kitchen
- 13:30Speaker 1: window they have and breakfast around seven fifteen. She inquired
- 13:34Speaker 1: as to who this man was, and her son Buell,
- 13:37Speaker 1: advised that it was Lee. Okay, so this is a document,
- 13:41Speaker 1: and this is from page two of eighteen. The first
- 13:45Speaker 1: time the words Buell and frayser ormment. So you can
- 13:54Speaker 1: click over here and go to the next page. Now,
- 13:58Speaker 1: if you run into some something like this, here there
- 14:02Speaker 1: is a rotate button where you can rotate it the
- 14:05Speaker 1: correct way, blow it up a little bit here and
- 14:09Speaker 1: you can see that this is from the book by
- 14:11Speaker 1: Larry Snead entitled No More Silent. And here you can
- 14:16Speaker 1: see some notes written in the book from John Armstrong. Okay,
- 14:21Speaker 1: and you know there's relevant inft to what you're looking for. Okay,
- 14:30Speaker 1: So let's go to the next one. Oh. Look, it's
- 14:32Speaker 1: a document, an affidavit in any fact. What is it about. Well,
- 14:38Speaker 1: it's signed by Wesley Fraser, as you can see at
- 14:40Speaker 1: the bottom, and you can see that it was personally
- 14:44Speaker 1: appeared by Buel Wesley Fraser. And I don't know that
- 14:52Speaker 1: there's a date on this, Okay. Yeah, Here it is
- 14:53Speaker 1: twenty two, the twenty second day of November, and that's
- 14:57Speaker 1: by the notary And this is just an affidavid from
- 15:02Speaker 1: Wesley Fraser saying I noticed that Lee had the package
- 15:09Speaker 1: in his right hand under his arm, and the package
- 15:13Speaker 1: was straight up and down and he had his arm
- 15:16Speaker 1: down and you could not see much of the package.
- 15:20Speaker 1: You know, YadA, YadA, YadA. Right now, you can go
- 15:24Speaker 1: on through here this file. It has many different kinds
- 15:28Speaker 1: of documents in it. It has legit affidavids, It has
- 15:31Speaker 1: writings by other people, It has related documents, it has
- 15:38Speaker 1: passages from books. This is here's a warrant commissioned exhibit
- 15:42Speaker 1: two four five four talking about the dial writer in
- 15:47Speaker 1: the Irvian sports shop. Okay, here's a CIA teletype or
- 15:56Speaker 1: an FBI teletype. Sorry, And and talking about Marina being
- 16:02Speaker 1: interviewed for over five hours today. She furnishes information she
- 16:06Speaker 1: knew Oswald had the rifle wrapped in a blanket in
- 16:09Speaker 1: the garage at the paint house and had seen it there.
- 16:13Speaker 1: She described the blanket as brown with green squares and
- 16:15Speaker 1: said it was a German made blanket that was purchased
- 16:18Speaker 1: in Russia. All right, so again you can go down
- 16:22Speaker 1: through here and read these documents. Now reading them is
- 16:27Speaker 1: one thing, okay, But say you would like to have
- 16:33Speaker 1: a copy of this document. Well, what you're gonna do
- 16:37Speaker 1: is down here at the bottom left corner of the document,
- 16:41Speaker 1: you'll see a download button. Okay, So I'm gonna click
- 16:45Speaker 1: the download button and it's going to ask you current
- 16:49Speaker 1: transcript or full asset okay, which basically mean the current
- 16:54Speaker 1: transcript is the page you're looking at. Okay, But say
- 16:57Speaker 1: I want the whole folder. Normally I'll do this, I'll
- 17:01Speaker 1: click full asset and it's another box will pop up
- 17:06Speaker 1: over here the right that says it's going to be
- 17:07Speaker 1: in a PDF form, which is how you want it.
- 17:11Speaker 1: So it's going to save this file to your computer
- 17:14Speaker 1: as a PDF. So we're gonna hit download, all right,
- 17:18Speaker 1: and it just shot up there. So I'm going to
- 17:21Speaker 1: click on my downloads up here, and I'm gonna open
- 17:24Speaker 1: up what I just downloaded, all right, So let me
- 17:35Speaker 1: show you what that looks like. All right, here's what's
- 17:42Speaker 1: going to pop up after you download this PDF that
- 17:45Speaker 1: you just downloaded. You're gonna have a cover sheet and
- 17:51Speaker 1: you're gonna have all the documents that were in that file. Okay.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Oh look, here's some handwritten notes from the HSCA to
- 18:05Speaker 1: talk about how reluctant Fraser was. See this is kind
- 18:10Speaker 1: of crazy what you can find in here, right, and
- 18:17Speaker 1: this is stuff that we didn't look at. But it
- 18:19Speaker 1: allows you to have the entire file at your fingertips
- 18:25Speaker 1: and look at it at your leisure and go through
- 18:27Speaker 1: it at your own pace and a little larger and
- 18:31Speaker 1: with the less hassle. So now I have this file.
- 18:36Speaker 1: It's on my computer. Okay, Now I'm going to close
- 18:43Speaker 1: back out of here, and I'm going to go back
- 18:55Speaker 1: to the Baylor University deal. Okay, now we're gonna go
- 19:02Speaker 1: back back back out of this folder all together. Okay,
- 19:12Speaker 1: my search term is still up here. I'm gonna click
- 19:14Speaker 1: it again. Oh wait a minute, Okay, that's gonna go back.
- 19:24Speaker 1: We're still looking for stuff from Buell Fraser. So we
- 19:26Speaker 1: saw what was in the first one, Well what's in
- 19:29Speaker 1: the second one. Well, let's open it up and see.
- 19:36Speaker 1: All right, this one has eleven hits for the term Fraser.
- 19:41Speaker 1: So we're just gonna go through here and see what's
- 19:43Speaker 1: kind of in here. So this is part of Fraser's
- 19:49Speaker 1: Warren Commission testimony. Okay, so you can read a little
- 19:54Speaker 1: bit about that. There's more Warren commissioned testimony, more Warm
- 20:00Speaker 1: Mission testimony. Here is something what is this? Not sure
- 20:07Speaker 1: what this is, but then you'll find down here. It's
- 20:10Speaker 1: an FBI document Okay, from December fifth, sixty three, Buell
- 20:16Speaker 1: Wesley Fraser Residence blah Blah advised that during the important period,
- 20:20Speaker 1: Lee Harvey Oswald was employed, Oswald rode with him on
- 20:24Speaker 1: several occasions to and from Irving, Texas. He stated on
- 20:28Speaker 1: November twenty second that Oswald had written with him from
- 20:30Speaker 1: Irving to the school book depository. Fraser advised that he
- 20:34Speaker 1: did not pay attention as to what type of clothing
- 20:36Speaker 1: Oswald was wearing. However, he felt certain that Oswald was
- 20:39Speaker 1: wearing a jacket on this date. Fraser was shown a
- 20:43Speaker 1: rust brown sports shirt with a hole in the right
- 20:45Speaker 1: sleeve at the elbow, which, according to the arresting officers,
- 20:48Speaker 1: was worn by Oswald at the time of his arrest.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Fraser was unable to identify this shirt as having been
- 20:54Speaker 1: worn by Oswald on November twenty second. So that's interesting,
- 21:00Speaker 1: So we keep going, what else is in this file? Well,
- 21:04Speaker 1: let's see here, what is this. We'd love to have
- 21:07Speaker 1: these items of Oswald's clothing for possible identification by missus
- 21:13Speaker 1: Randall and Buell Fraser. And they're talking about the jacket, shirt,
- 21:18Speaker 1: all of this stuff. So let's keep going. What is this?
- 21:26Speaker 1: Buill Wesley Fraser, Irving, Texas. We contacted Fraser through his
- 21:29Speaker 1: attorney Medicine Holland Backs office company by his sister and
- 21:39Speaker 1: his lawyer. Okay, this is for the Garrison thing, because
- 21:47Speaker 1: they're talking about New Orleans here, the clay Shaw trial.
- 21:54Speaker 1: So this is how basically how they got him to
- 21:57Speaker 1: New Orleans, which is interesting. Moving on, now we've got
- 22:04Speaker 1: an FBI document R. D. Lewis talking about his polygraph
- 22:09Speaker 1: and says while he was running the polygraph, Fraser was
- 22:12Speaker 1: shown what appeared to be a homemade brown, heavy paper
- 22:14Speaker 1: gun case. He stated that Fraser said that it was
- 22:18Speaker 1: possible that this was the case, but he did not
- 22:20Speaker 1: think it resembled it. He stated that the crinkly brown
- 22:23Speaker 1: paper sack that Oswald had when he rode to work
- 22:25Speaker 1: with him that morning was about two feet long. So
- 22:29Speaker 1: just cruising through here, all right. They talk about our
- 22:36Speaker 1: D Lewis polygraph operator in the crime lab. Individual state
- 22:39Speaker 1: that as far as they know, the paper sack of
- 22:42Speaker 1: the type described by Fraser was not recovered. If so,
- 22:46Speaker 1: they do not know anything about it in the crime
- 22:48Speaker 1: lab and so on and so forth. So if I'm
- 22:53Speaker 1: doing a show on Bill Fraser and I see you
- 22:56Speaker 1: know this file might be useful to me, I'm gonna unloaded,
- 23:01Speaker 1: and then I'm either going to save the entire file,
- 23:04Speaker 1: going to print off what documents that I want to
- 23:06Speaker 1: use in the show to read to you guys. So
- 23:10Speaker 1: that is that is the Baylor Archives of John Armstrong.
- 23:22Speaker 1: And again it's a very useful tool to find good
- 23:29Speaker 1: files and documents about a variety of different subjects. It's
- 23:33Speaker 1: as simple as searching. Okay, So to continue the John
- 23:39Speaker 1: Armstrong thread a little bit, the next thing we're going
- 23:43Speaker 1: to go to here is the Harvey and Lee homepage. Again,
- 23:52Speaker 1: all of these links will be in the description. Now,
- 23:56Speaker 1: while I might not buy the Harvey and Lee theory,
- 23:59Speaker 1: John Armstrong does a very good job of including credible
- 24:06Speaker 1: documentation for things. Okay, so let's go through here a
- 24:11Speaker 1: little bit and I will show you what I mean.
- 24:15Speaker 1: As I said, this is the homepage. This is where
- 24:17Speaker 1: you're gonna get started. And if you're new to this,
- 24:23Speaker 1: you know there's a visual representation of Harvey and Lee. Okay,
- 24:28Speaker 1: you got Lee Oswald on the top during the years
- 24:32Speaker 1: fifty two fifty four or fifty six fifty seven, and
- 24:36Speaker 1: then you have visual representations of Harvey allegedly in these
- 24:40Speaker 1: different years as well. And then at the end you have,
- 24:43Speaker 1: of course, the composite, and then below that you have
- 24:48Speaker 1: the discrepancies between Lee Oswald and the official record, and
- 24:53Speaker 1: those discrepancies Armstrong attributes to Harvey, but could be because
- 25:00Speaker 1: it was something else. But there's still legitimate questions that
- 25:03Speaker 1: you need to question, such as in nineteen fifty eight
- 25:08Speaker 1: Lee is in Japan, his mother is at West sixth
- 25:11Speaker 1: Street in Fort Worth. Yet also in nineteen fifty eight,
- 25:15Speaker 1: Harvey quits working at Fisterer Dential Lab in June and
- 25:21Speaker 1: is in Taiwan in September. Okay, so he kind of
- 25:25Speaker 1: breaks down this kind of thing, Okay. As you can
- 25:30Speaker 1: see over here, these red, white and blue flashing tabs,
- 25:34Speaker 1: they're labeled documents, okay, and there's a description of the
- 25:39Speaker 1: documents Okay, like this one. Click button at left to
- 25:43Speaker 1: see how the FBI merged the identities of Harvey and
- 25:45Speaker 1: Lee by fabricating, altering, and destroying documentary evidence. Then we
- 25:50Speaker 1: move down to the Garrison investigation. Click the button at
- 25:53Speaker 1: the left to read the complete four page Garrison document
- 25:56Speaker 1: describing two Oswalds. Okay. So again this is laying the
- 26:01Speaker 1: groundwork for his theory, but there is a lot of
- 26:05Speaker 1: different stuff in here. So also included it's full text
- 26:09Speaker 1: of John Armstrong's nineteen ninety seven, ninety eight, and ninety
- 26:12Speaker 1: nine conference speeches, two from Dallas, one from Minnesota. These
- 26:17Speaker 1: are articles he wrote for fair Play Magazine Harvey and
- 26:20Speaker 1: Lee concerning the Tipets shooting. And then an update done
- 26:23Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen and then twenty eleven. Poge Library at
- 26:28Speaker 1: Baylor copied more than one hundred and one thousand of
- 26:30Speaker 1: mister Armstrong's documents. Click here to access those documents. Now
- 26:34Speaker 1: that's where we just were. We were at the Baylor Archives.
- 26:38Speaker 1: He has other things that people talk about concerning his thing.
- 26:42Speaker 1: He's got videos that he's done about different subjects concerning
- 26:46Speaker 1: Harvey and Lee. Now down here at the bottom is
- 26:50Speaker 1: where all of his articles, his long form articles are. Okay,
- 26:55Speaker 1: for instance, if you want to see what he wrote
- 26:59Speaker 1: about when just for example, November twenty second, sixty three. Okay,
- 27:09Speaker 1: there's escape from the sixth floor twelve thirty two, Oswald
- 27:13Speaker 1: did not run down the stairs twelve thirty three, Harvey
- 27:17Speaker 1: and Lee depart the school book depository. Then he's got
- 27:20Speaker 1: different five parts about the Tippet murder. Then he's got
- 27:23Speaker 1: something on Westbrook and Kroy and it's on chronological order,
- 27:27Speaker 1: which is very cool. So if you wanted to see
- 27:30Speaker 1: one of these, let's just go back up to the
- 27:31Speaker 1: escape from the sixth floor for a second. I'll click
- 27:33Speaker 1: on that one. Now, let me share this tab so
- 27:42Speaker 1: you can see it. There we go, they see very big.
- 27:48Speaker 1: This is a escape from the sixth floor by John Armstrong.
- 27:52Speaker 1: He's got good photographs here, Bill Shelley and allegedly Bill
- 27:58Speaker 1: Shelley in New Orleans, which I'm guessing more likely Thomas Beckham.
- 28:01Speaker 1: But whatever, witnesses saw two men on the sixth floor,
- 28:06Speaker 1: and then he takes you through it. Okay, Carolyn Walter
- 28:09Speaker 1: was standing on the west side. She saw somebody up
- 28:13Speaker 1: in the window. Two men actually, one of whom was
- 28:15Speaker 1: holding a rifle, and she said the man carrying the
- 28:21Speaker 1: gun was blonde or light haired and wearing a white shirt,
- 28:23Speaker 1: and the other man was wearing a brown suit coat.
- 28:26Speaker 1: He's got Ruby Henderson was standing across the street and
- 28:28Speaker 1: saw two also saw two men on an upper floor
- 28:32Speaker 1: of the building. So he's given you, you know, concise
- 28:36Speaker 1: information concerning a lot of things. And he also includes
- 28:42Speaker 1: these very helpful photographs to illustrate certain things, and even
- 28:49Speaker 1: diagrams of what the inside of the school book depository
- 28:52Speaker 1: look like on various floors to show you where Geneva
- 28:57Speaker 1: Hind was sitting okay when she allegedly gave Oswald change
- 29:01Speaker 1: for a soda, right, and how everything kind of looks.
- 29:07Speaker 1: Here's the fourth floor. This is where Vicky Adams was working,
- 29:12Speaker 1: had these offices up here with Scott's Foresman and company,
- 29:15Speaker 1: and where the stairwell was in relation to their workspaces allegedly,
- 29:23Speaker 1: where Shelley and Lovelady were standing on the first floor,
- 29:26Speaker 1: and where Adams and Styles came down and went out
- 29:28Speaker 1: the back door. So some very illustrative things, lots of
- 29:33Speaker 1: good resources. Officer Baker runs to the TSBD. Right here
- 29:43Speaker 1: shows these guys getting arrested, Bill Shelley, Bonnie Ray, Danny Arsay.
- 29:49Speaker 1: More diagrams what the elevators look like. You know, it
- 29:52Speaker 1: wasn't like the elevators today where you can't see out
- 29:55Speaker 1: of them. These are the old school with the gate
- 29:57Speaker 1: with wooden slats in them. You know, like, don't stay
- 30:00Speaker 1: take your hand out of these or you're gonna get got,
- 30:02Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He includes documents underlines important
- 30:08Speaker 1: parts of documents, discrepancies, how the elevators worked. You know,
- 30:16Speaker 1: it's a lot of good information packed in this one
- 30:20Speaker 1: article that he has on his site. Right edge of
- 30:24Speaker 1: plywood boards. You know, they were supposedly replacing the floor
- 30:28Speaker 1: of the sixth floor. So when you're doing that, you
- 30:31Speaker 1: need to stack the boxes the hell out of the
- 30:32Speaker 1: way if you're replacing a floor, So you know, this
- 30:37Speaker 1: is not so much a constructed sniper's nest, if you will,
- 30:39Speaker 1: it's you know, you're going to move the boxes towards
- 30:43Speaker 1: the edges of the buildings so you can have access
- 30:46Speaker 1: to replace the plywood on the floor. Right, makes sense.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Then once you've replaced the plywood on the floor, then
- 30:53Speaker 1: you can move the boxes back and make it a
- 30:55Speaker 1: somewhat coherent space to work in. Again, more photographs Affi
- 31:03Speaker 1: David's from Bill Shelley. I mean it just goes on
- 31:09Speaker 1: and on, very good images, photographs, documents, there's Billy Lovelady. Again,
- 31:18Speaker 1: this is just one article by John Armstrong, packed full
- 31:21Speaker 1: of documents and observations and photographs. There's James Hosty's interrogation notes.
- 31:33Speaker 1: There's Vick what Vicky Adams looked like? And what she
- 31:35Speaker 1: said and Barry ear her story. So you know, you
- 31:40Speaker 1: get down there and you want to go home, you
- 31:42Speaker 1: hit the home button and bam, you're back to the
- 31:44Speaker 1: first page. And you can keep going on through everything.
- 31:48Speaker 1: And there's so many different, you know, parts to this thing.
- 31:55Speaker 1: I mean, it just keeps going on and on. Got
- 32:00Speaker 1: the bare facts about Jack Ruby, the magic tooth, the
- 32:04Speaker 1: vanishing scars, the FBI fabricated rifle documents, something about Donald P.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Norton Oswald did not purchase a rifle from Kleines, And
- 32:15Speaker 1: you know, he goes through and tells you about it.
- 32:17Speaker 1: Was it too, margueritees? Where was Harvey? There's just a
- 32:23Speaker 1: lot here. So it's a very good resource to check out,
- 32:29Speaker 1: you know, when you're looking for specific information. All right,
- 32:35Speaker 1: so let's go to the next one. Now, this next
- 32:42Speaker 1: one is one of my favorites and one of the
- 32:43Speaker 1: first that I ever started using, and this is the
- 32:49Speaker 1: Harold Wiseberg Archive. Okay, Now, when you when you land
- 32:57Speaker 1: on the page, it's gonna look something like this, and
- 33:00Speaker 1: it's gonna look really, really overwhelming. Okay, So you know
- 33:06Speaker 1: you kind of scroll down, you'll see things you might recognize,
- 33:11Speaker 1: like the Lopez Report, There's a lot of other things
- 33:17Speaker 1: in here as well, like MLK appeals folders, Malcolm X,
- 33:22Speaker 1: Raymond Marcus files, Gerald mcnight files, Sylvia mar files. Right,
- 33:31Speaker 1: but we want there's some John Newman things about Oswald
- 33:35Speaker 1: and the CIA. Some of his book stuff is in here.
- 33:38Speaker 1: And look, if you want to spend the good part
- 33:42Speaker 1: of your day going down rabbit holes, this is a
- 33:45Speaker 1: good place to do it, for sure. But what I
- 33:51Speaker 1: like to do when I come here is I like
- 33:53Speaker 1: to go down to the Wiseberg subject index files. Okay,
- 33:59Speaker 1: and I'm gonna click on that, and now it's going
- 34:02Speaker 1: to give me an alphabetical A through Z. Okay, and
- 34:09Speaker 1: this goes by last name. Okay, So we wanted to
- 34:12Speaker 1: look up Buell Fraser. Again, We're gonna go to the
- 34:15Speaker 1: F disc and I'm gonna click on that. That opens
- 34:20Speaker 1: up everything in the F file again by alphabetical order.
- 34:25Speaker 1: We're looking for Fraser. So we're gonna go on down
- 34:27Speaker 1: through all this, down past Bud Finster, Wall, down past
- 34:31Speaker 1: David Ferry, down past Mary Farrell, down passing fingerprints and
- 34:36Speaker 1: Fank Fiorini uh down past Larry Flint and Gayton Phonsie,
- 34:42Speaker 1: Gerald Ford until we get to oh, Buell Wesley Fraser.
- 34:50Speaker 1: And then there's another one. This is Buell Wesley Fraser
- 34:54Speaker 1: c bag. So let's click on this first one. We're
- 34:59Speaker 1: gonna open it up, and it's gonna tell me. There's
- 35:02Speaker 1: four PDFs in this file. Now what they are, I
- 35:07Speaker 1: don't know. You don't know until you open them. So
- 35:12Speaker 1: we're going to open the first one. What is it? Well,
- 35:16Speaker 1: let's see here. Let's blow this up a little bit
- 35:20Speaker 1: so we can see it.
- 35:21Speaker 2: This is.
- 35:23Speaker 1: Sorry, this is an FBI document. You can tell that
- 35:28Speaker 1: because it'll say United States Government at the top and
- 35:31Speaker 1: SAC means special Agent in charge from special agent essay,
- 35:35Speaker 1: that's James Anderton. The date is eleven, twenty nine, sixty three.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Now this is supposed to be a Buell Fraser thing, right,
- 35:43Speaker 1: So it's reference to a three h two interview with
- 35:45Speaker 1: mister Buell Wesley Fraser on November twenty second, sixty three.
- 35:50Speaker 1: On November twenty ninth, mister Fraser was contacted by a
- 35:53Speaker 1: writer and said he stated that he recalls it. On
- 35:56Speaker 1: the morning on November twenty second, when Oswald rode to
- 35:59Speaker 1: work in his car, he had something in a paper
- 36:01Speaker 1: sack the kinds you would obtain in a dime store. Specifically,
- 36:06Speaker 1: that the paper in the sack was a flimsy, thin consistency.
- 36:09Speaker 1: Fraser again advised he asked Oswald was in the sack,
- 36:12Speaker 1: and he replied, curtain rods. Okay, scroll down the document
- 36:17Speaker 1: a little bit. Fraser stated that between eleven PM and
- 36:19Speaker 1: midnight he was in the polygraph room of the Dallas
- 36:22Speaker 1: Police Department, and before taking a polygraph exam, they brought
- 36:27Speaker 1: in a large paper sack approximately three to four feet
- 36:30Speaker 1: in length and the type a grocery store of receieves
- 36:33Speaker 1: their five pound bags of sugar in heavier brown paper. Specifically,
- 36:40Speaker 1: that the paper in the sack was very thick and stiff.
- 36:43Speaker 1: He stated this sack shown to him appeared to actually
- 36:45Speaker 1: have been made by someone cutting down a larger sack.
- 36:48Speaker 1: He said. He told the police officer this sack had
- 36:50Speaker 1: never been seen by him before. He also said that
- 36:53Speaker 1: this sack was definitely not the one he observed in
- 36:55Speaker 1: possession of Oswald the morning in November twenty second, because
- 36:59Speaker 1: of course, why is he going to admit that, Because
- 37:02Speaker 1: it is obviously had to be a rifle in the
- 37:06Speaker 1: bag if it's three or four feet long. Because Fraser
- 37:09Speaker 1: is a rifle owner, he knows what a rifle on
- 37:11Speaker 1: a bag looks like. And YadA, YadA, YadA. Right, Okay,
- 37:17Speaker 1: so let's go back. We opened that one up. What's
- 37:22Speaker 1: the next one. Well, let's blow it up and see
- 37:28Speaker 1: it is another FBI document. This one was from January eighth,
- 37:32Speaker 1: nineteen sixty eight. So you got it. You know immediately
- 37:35Speaker 1: it's you know, about the time of the Garrison thing, right,
- 37:40Speaker 1: and this says it's a U fat matter. A male
- 37:44Speaker 1: individual who identified himself as redacted former member of redacted,
- 37:49Speaker 1: telephonically contacted his office advised captioned individual at B Fraser
- 37:55Speaker 1: is presently residing at the residence of Robert Wilson and
- 37:58Speaker 1: claims to be identical with the mule Wesley Fraser, who
- 38:01Speaker 1: was a fellow employee of Lee Harvey Oswald. Subsequent to
- 38:05Speaker 1: the assassination, Fraser served in the US Army in Germany
- 38:09Speaker 1: with Robert Wilson. YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA YadA. According to redacted,
- 38:15Speaker 1: this visit was developed into an affair between Missus Wilson
- 38:19Speaker 1: and Fraser to the extent that the Wilsons have now
- 38:22Speaker 1: filed for a divorce. So Bull Wesley Fraser is a
- 38:26Speaker 1: home wrecker. In fact, he boinked his best friends and
- 38:32Speaker 1: his roommate's wife to the extent that they filed for
- 38:36Speaker 1: a divorce. And according to redacted Buell, Fraser is currently
- 38:41Speaker 1: residing with Missus Wilson at the above address, which was
- 38:45Speaker 1: the Wilson's residence. Wow, okay, so Fraser is a home wrecker. Interesting.
- 38:56Speaker 1: Redacted is now currently residing in a local motel, the
- 39:00Speaker 1: poor bastard because Fraser ruined his marriage. Please search the
- 39:05Speaker 1: indices and contact Dallas PD to determine whether or not
- 39:09Speaker 1: Fraser is wanted and notify Portland. Wow. Pretty crazy stuff there, right,
- 39:18Speaker 1: So you see the kind of things that you can
- 39:22Speaker 1: find that one can find in these document repositories. You
- 39:28Speaker 1: can just be looking for stuff on Fraser and stumble
- 39:31Speaker 1: across something that you've never heard before. That's interesting, it's juicy,
- 39:37Speaker 1: might be good for a podcast, might be good for
- 39:40Speaker 1: a laugh. Who knows? All right? Next up is another
- 39:49Speaker 1: one of my favorites, and it's because of this sexy
- 39:54Speaker 1: son of a bitch laying in the grass on the
- 39:57Speaker 1: home screen this here page. So you say, Rob, what
- 40:04Speaker 1: are you talking about. Well, now as soon as I
- 40:07Speaker 1: click one, there they switched pictures. But let me pull
- 40:11Speaker 1: it back. There he is. There's that sexy son of
- 40:14Speaker 1: a bitch laying on the ground that mister bart Camp.
- 40:17Speaker 1: Now this is the official Daley Plaza UK website. Okay.
- 40:24Speaker 1: Now what's great about this website is that this is
- 40:27Speaker 1: where all of Malcolm Blunt and Bart Camp's hard work
- 40:32Speaker 1: is held, and not just Malcolm Blunts, as we'll see
- 40:35Speaker 1: here in a second. So there's a couple tabs at
- 40:39Speaker 1: the top. One says home, one says about, and one
- 40:41Speaker 1: says research. Okay, so you're gonna go over to research,
- 40:47Speaker 1: and you're gonna go down to collections. It's gonna open
- 40:51Speaker 1: up another window for you. This is Malcolm Blunt, Barry Keen,
- 40:54Speaker 1: Harry Livingston and Ian Griggs. Now for the example we're
- 40:59Speaker 1: gonna be using here today. Hey, I'm gonna slide over
- 41:01Speaker 1: here on Malcolm Blunt. Now another one pops up. Do
- 41:05Speaker 1: I want audio from Malcolm Blunt? Do I want documents
- 41:08Speaker 1: from Malcolm Blunt? Or do I want video from Malcolm Blunt?
- 41:11Speaker 1: So I'm gonna slide back over to the documents and
- 41:15Speaker 1: I'm gonna click it because I want documents from Malcolm Blunt.
- 41:20Speaker 1: Now it's gonna tell me this content is password protected.
- 41:23Speaker 1: To view it, please enter the password below. I'm gonna
- 41:29Speaker 1: show you a shortcut to get around this though, So
- 41:34Speaker 1: go back to the research tab, go to collections and
- 41:37Speaker 1: just click on Malcolm Blunt. Don't click on anything else.
- 41:41Speaker 1: That's gonna bring you to the Malcolm Blunt page. All right,
- 41:45Speaker 1: So we scroll down past MACILM Blunt's big beautiful mug
- 41:51Speaker 1: and it's all all about his project and Bart and
- 41:55Speaker 1: them digitizing all this stuff. And at the very bottom
- 42:00Speaker 1: you can donate to help dally a Plaza UK and
- 42:03Speaker 1: Bart lugging all the paper. Now you'll see at the
- 42:07Speaker 1: bottom we have audio, documents and video. I'm going to
- 42:09Speaker 1: click on documents and oh I don't need a password
- 42:14Speaker 1: this time to get in. Let me show you this page.
- 42:24Speaker 1: So what that's going to do is it opens up
- 42:27Speaker 1: the Malcolm Blunt archive in a Google Drive format. So
- 42:33Speaker 1: there's a lot of different tabs here. It starts off
- 42:35Speaker 1: with I US Customs, under that Lee Harvey Oswald, under
- 42:40Speaker 1: that Coastguard, under that Anti Castro Cuba, USMC, Jack Ruby
- 42:44Speaker 1: Schoobook Depository, and so on and so forth through a
- 42:48Speaker 1: lot of different topics. Okay, so let's keep our thing
- 42:54Speaker 1: here where we're looking for stuff about buil Wesley Frasier.
- 42:58Speaker 1: So there's a couple different places that I'm gonna look
- 43:01Speaker 1: to find stuff about Bill Wesley Fraser. Now I'm not
- 43:05Speaker 1: gonna look in the Coastguard tab for anything bu Wesley
- 43:07Speaker 1: Fraser because quite frankly, that would be silly and a
- 43:10Speaker 1: waste of time. So the first one I'm gonna look
- 43:14Speaker 1: under is the school Book Depository because that's where they
- 43:16Speaker 1: both worked. So I'm gonna click the tab and I'm
- 43:21Speaker 1: going to open up the school Book Depository file. Now,
- 43:26Speaker 1: if you'll notice here at the very top, if there's
- 43:28Speaker 1: a lot of documents about a certain person, they're gonna
- 43:32Speaker 1: have sub files at the top. One is for Roy Truley,
- 43:36Speaker 1: one is for Joe Molina. But oh lookie, here there's
- 43:40Speaker 1: one for buill Wesley Fraser. So I'm gonna click that,
- 43:45Speaker 1: and what it's gonna do is it's gonna pull out
- 43:46Speaker 1: all the files on bu Wesley Fraser and put them
- 43:49Speaker 1: right here for me to peruse. So I'm going to
- 43:52Speaker 1: click on the first one here. Let's blow this up
- 43:57Speaker 1: a little bit so we can see it first. One
- 44:03Speaker 1: is it teletype from nineteen sixty nine, looks like and
- 44:11Speaker 1: it talks about uh Fraser to Shawl trial, Fraser testified
- 44:20Speaker 1: that Oswald had told him that he would not be
- 44:22Speaker 1: riding with him on this one occasion because he was
- 44:24Speaker 1: going to get a driver's license. Fraser testified that he
- 44:27Speaker 1: did not converse with Oswald very much on these occasions,
- 44:30Speaker 1: and while at work, Oswald stayed by himself was more
- 44:33Speaker 1: or less a loner. He testified. He did recall on
- 44:36Speaker 1: a few occasions seeing Oswald playing baseball with children in
- 44:39Speaker 1: his neighborhood and Irving. Fraser testified that Oswald asked him
- 44:43Speaker 1: if he could go to Irving with Fraser. On November
- 44:45Speaker 1: twenty one, nineteen sixty three. Oswald told Fraser he was
- 44:49Speaker 1: going to see his wife to get some curtain rods,
- 44:51Speaker 1: which Oswald said his wife had bought for him. Yeah,
- 44:54Speaker 1: with her money that she gets from her job. Right, Yeah, sure, okay,
- 44:58Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. And now when I'm
- 45:01Speaker 1: done with this document, I can simply go over here
- 45:04Speaker 1: to the right. There is a next button and it
- 45:07Speaker 1: will instantly bring up the next document, which let me
- 45:12Speaker 1: blow it up a little bit here.
- 45:14Speaker 2: Ah.
- 45:16Speaker 1: This is an FBI document from three seven sixty four
- 45:23Speaker 1: expanded information to developed from Buill Wesley Fraser, who was
- 45:26Speaker 1: an individual who transported Oswald from Irving, Texas to place
- 45:30Speaker 1: of employment. YadA, YadA, YadA. He states he exited off
- 45:34Speaker 1: the Stemmens Freeway, traveled east one Commerce under the underpass
- 45:38Speaker 1: until he reached Record Street. He turned left off Commerce
- 45:41Speaker 1: Street and traveled north on Record Street to McKinney Street,
- 45:43Speaker 1: where he made a left turn until he reached Broadway.
- 45:46Speaker 1: At this point, he made another left turn and travel
- 45:48Speaker 1: south on Broadway for one a half block, where he
- 45:49Speaker 1: made it right into a wire fenced area. This fenced
- 45:52Speaker 1: area is referred to as a parking lot number one
- 45:54Speaker 1: for employees of the Texas school Book Depository building. Fraser
- 45:59Speaker 1: park his car in this area. He states that Oswald
- 46:02Speaker 1: left the automobile ahead of him, and in fact preceded
- 46:04Speaker 1: him all the way to the building. Fraser informs he
- 46:07Speaker 1: did not catch up to Oswald and that Oswald entered
- 46:10Speaker 1: the building through the doorway referred to as Houston Street
- 46:12Speaker 1: Loading Dock doorway. Fraser states that Oswald was about fifty
- 46:16Speaker 1: feet in front of him the entire time, and when
- 46:19Speaker 1: he entered the building, he points out that he followed
- 46:21Speaker 1: and entered the same doorway as Oswald and immediately went
- 46:24Speaker 1: to the basement where he was assigned his duties. Boy,
- 46:27Speaker 1: Fraser really loves the basement. You just gotta give it
- 46:30Speaker 1: to him. So we're done with that one. Next document
- 46:36Speaker 1: not online, HSCA. This is a Secret Service Treasury Department
- 46:43Speaker 1: document from November twenty eighth, and let's blow it up
- 46:48Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, missus. Randall responds to agents questions
- 46:53Speaker 1: as follows transcriptions shorthand talking about how Ruth paying got
- 47:01Speaker 1: Oswald the job at the schoolook Depository and so on
- 47:06Speaker 1: and so forth. Very interesting. This one from eleven, twenty three,
- 47:17Speaker 1: sixty three. This is an FBI interview the day after
- 47:23Speaker 1: the assassination with Buell Frasier. I said, there's a couple
- 47:32Speaker 1: of pages here, and now, you know, if I want
- 47:36Speaker 1: to keep this here up here in the top, there's
- 47:40Speaker 1: a button. This is adds shortcut to drive, so I
- 47:44Speaker 1: can actually without having to download this on my computer.
- 47:48Speaker 1: If I click that button, it will upload it directly
- 47:51Speaker 1: into my drive, my Google drive, or I can print
- 47:56Speaker 1: it straight from this page. Or I can downloaded as
- 48:01Speaker 1: a file to my computer so that I have it.
- 48:07Speaker 1: So this is a very good resource for grathering documents.
- 48:11Speaker 1: Here's a good one one that I talked about on
- 48:13Speaker 1: the show, one that not a lot of people have
- 48:16Speaker 1: ever seen before. This is the Police Department of Irving,
- 48:19Speaker 1: Texas arrest and disposition record for bull Wesley Fraser. This
- 48:23Speaker 1: is the Irving Police Department arrest record for Buell Fraser,
- 48:28Speaker 1: and he's charged with investigation murder. President USA. John McCabe
- 48:35Speaker 1: patrolman is the resting officer. I'm sorry so again. This
- 48:44Speaker 1: is a three page document. It has the story here
- 48:48Speaker 1: of how they came to be notified about Fraser, how
- 48:52Speaker 1: they got Fraser into custody and held him for the
- 48:56Speaker 1: Dallas Police. They did, they says, they walked Fraser down
- 49:02Speaker 1: the hall short ways into a door where we searched
- 49:04Speaker 1: him and had him produce ID which showed that he
- 49:07Speaker 1: was Buell Wesley Fraser five point thirty five. On eleven
- 49:11Speaker 1: twenty two, McCarley and the reporting officer brought Fraser to
- 49:13Speaker 1: the Irving Police Department, where we contacted Detective Rose and
- 49:17Speaker 1: advised him that we had Fraser in custody. They went
- 49:20Speaker 1: out to Fraser's car, which was still parked at the
- 49:22Speaker 1: Professional Center. Nothing was found. They then went to Fraser's home.
- 49:28Speaker 1: Fraser produced a three zero three caliber British infield rifle
- 49:31Speaker 1: from the closet and a clip, and they took him
- 49:37Speaker 1: to Dallas for questioning. Eleven twenty three, at twelve thirty am,
- 49:42Speaker 1: the reporting officer contacted Detective Rose and he advised that
- 49:45Speaker 1: Fraser had been run on the polygraph and cleared of
- 49:49Speaker 1: the defense or offense, but furnished valuable information concerning Oswald.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Fraser was released by the Dallas Police. Very interesting, but
- 50:01Speaker 1: it's not over. There's a little bit more. They talk
- 50:05Speaker 1: about searching Ruth Payne's house, several photographs, YadA, YadA, YadA. Interesting. Interesting,
- 50:16Speaker 1: So there's all kinds of good stuff, folks, you know
- 50:19Speaker 1: that you can find on the interwebs in these various
- 50:28Speaker 1: propositories of information. We're not even halfway through them, and
- 50:35Speaker 1: we're almost in an hour here. So I'm just gonna
- 50:38Speaker 1: call this a part one, if you will, a part one,
- 50:44Speaker 1: because I still have to go through let's see one, two, three, four,
- 50:55Speaker 1: at least four or five more websites and repositories of information.
- 50:59Speaker 1: So we'll see that for part two. We'll call it
- 51:02Speaker 1: this part one. But as you can see, it doesn't
- 51:07Speaker 1: take really a lot of effort to find very pertinent,
- 51:12Speaker 1: intriguing documents on something that you're looking for. And like
- 51:18Speaker 1: I said, the example we use today was Bule Frasier.
- 51:21Speaker 1: We went through the Baylor Archives. I showed you how
- 51:25Speaker 1: to navigate that, how to download, how to check those
- 51:28Speaker 1: documents out, how to download those, how to you know,
- 51:33Speaker 1: save those files to your computer. We went into the
- 51:38Speaker 1: Harvey and Lee homepage, which is a very interesting resource,
- 51:42Speaker 1: not very character specific, and you can't really search it
- 51:46Speaker 1: for anything, but there is a lot of good information
- 51:48Speaker 1: and documents there, and I kind of pair that with
- 51:53Speaker 1: the with the Baylor Archives. And then of course we
- 51:56Speaker 1: went into the Malcolm Blunt Archives a little bit and
- 52:05Speaker 1: showed you how to navigate kind of through there. And
- 52:09Speaker 1: what else did we do? Oh, yes, the Wiseburg Archives.
- 52:13Speaker 1: How could I forget the Wisburg Archives, and showed you
- 52:18Speaker 1: how to navigate through that, how to open up documents there,
- 52:20Speaker 1: how to save documents there. And like I said, we're
- 52:25Speaker 1: not even halfway through some of the resources that I use,
- 52:29Speaker 1: but look at all the information that I was able
- 52:33Speaker 1: to collect and probably the span of half an hour
- 52:39Speaker 1: on bia Wesley Fraser using those three resources alone. And
- 52:43Speaker 1: I didn't even go in and open up every document.
- 52:48Speaker 1: You know, you got basically everything you need to put
- 52:51Speaker 1: a story together to start to build a narrative based
- 52:57Speaker 1: on actual documentation that we have and we can see
- 53:03Speaker 1: and we can read. You know, again, if you're looking
- 53:07Speaker 1: for something specific about Buell Fraser, you could do a
- 53:14Speaker 1: simple Google search about him. Maybe his book will pop up.
- 53:21Speaker 1: That's what interests you, and you want to read more
- 53:22Speaker 1: about what he says than you can order his book
- 53:26Speaker 1: and we'll get into some more tips and tricks about things.
- 53:29Speaker 1: You know. Of course, if you just do a simple
- 53:30Speaker 1: Google search, you might find different puff pieces on him.
- 53:35Speaker 1: You might find his sixth Floor Museum interviews where you
- 53:38Speaker 1: can hear him talking for an hour about different things.
- 53:42Speaker 1: And that's all good and fine, and that all helps, right,
- 53:47Speaker 1: But it takes a special kind of special to sit
- 53:50Speaker 1: there for an hour and listen to Buele Fraser talk.
- 53:55Speaker 1: Because a lot of this stuff that we talk about
- 53:59Speaker 1: when it comes to the Kennedy assassination we all know,
- 54:02Speaker 1: but it seems like for every puff piece, for every article,
- 54:06Speaker 1: for every news piece, it seems like they have always
- 54:10Speaker 1: have to set the table and give you the basic stuff,
- 54:13Speaker 1: the basic one oh one stuff, over and over and
- 54:16Speaker 1: over again. You know, like, Okay, we get it. Fraser
- 54:21Speaker 1: is the guy that drove Oswald to work that day, right,
- 54:25Speaker 1: that's the surface, okay. And he's this seemingly young kid
- 54:31Speaker 1: in the wrong place at the wrong time, with the
- 54:33Speaker 1: wrong person, you know, cursed by history, you know, and
- 54:37Speaker 1: it's following him ever since, and YadA, YadA, YadA. But
- 54:42Speaker 1: there is more to the story if you bother to
- 54:46Speaker 1: look for it, Like how many of you know that
- 54:50Speaker 1: he was actually arrested and charged with murder of the
- 54:55Speaker 1: president in Irving? How many of you knew that in
- 54:59Speaker 1: nineteen sixty eight he was banging his best friend's old
- 55:02Speaker 1: lady in his best friend's house and they got a
- 55:05Speaker 1: divorce and kicked out the husband and he's living with her.
- 55:12Speaker 1: Does that change your mind about how good of a
- 55:14Speaker 1: guy Bulle Frasier is. Certainly taints my view of him,
- 55:21Speaker 1: But I digress, you know, And a lot of these
- 55:24Speaker 1: other documents that we found very interesting stuff, and you
- 55:29Speaker 1: can see kind of his contradictions in different places. You
- 55:33Speaker 1: see his Affidavid. You see what he tells the FBI
- 55:36Speaker 1: the day after you know. You see what he says
- 55:39Speaker 1: at the Shawl trial. You can see what his interview
- 55:48Speaker 1: and what he says and what the outcomes are for
- 55:52Speaker 1: the assassination tapes, which happens in nineteen seventy five. You
- 55:56Speaker 1: can see his HSCA interview. You can see the handwritten
- 55:59Speaker 1: notes from the investigators telling you Fraser is very reluctant.
- 56:05Speaker 1: He keeps putting us off for an interview day after
- 56:09Speaker 1: day after day. He won't do it without a lawyer. YadA, YadA, YadA.
- 56:13Speaker 1: We haven't even touched the mock trial yet, and there's
- 56:19Speaker 1: just so much information out there. There's so much information,
- 56:24Speaker 1: but it helps when you know how to parse your
- 56:27Speaker 1: way through it. Now, we don't need every file on
- 56:30Speaker 1: Bule Fraser. You don't need to read everyone. If you
- 56:33Speaker 1: start to read it and you realize that you've been
- 56:37Speaker 1: there before and you kind of know what's going to
- 56:40Speaker 1: be said, then you can just skim it and skip it,
- 56:44Speaker 1: move on to something else that you haven't seen before,
- 56:46Speaker 1: that you haven't read about before. That's the interesting stuff
- 56:51Speaker 1: and if something piques your interest, here's what I do.
- 56:56Speaker 1: I'll print it out. I'll print that page out. And
- 57:00Speaker 1: that's why people get mad at me. Oh, what's the
- 57:02Speaker 1: rift number on that? I don't know. I couldn't tell
- 57:06Speaker 1: you have no clue. Didn't find it at Nara, didn't
- 57:11Speaker 1: find it at Mary Farrell, doesn't have a rift number.
- 57:14Speaker 1: I just printed it out because I want to read
- 57:15Speaker 1: it on the air, because it's interesting. And then it
- 57:18Speaker 1: goes right in this trash can right down here, and
- 57:23Speaker 1: then it goes to the landfill. It is what it is,
- 57:30Speaker 1: you know. And then when I'm done with the subject,
- 57:32Speaker 1: like once we wrap up the whole Bule Fraser subject,
- 57:37Speaker 1: I'll go back into my Google drive and I'll do
- 57:39Speaker 1: a little spring cleaning. Like all of the files that
- 57:42Speaker 1: I downloaded, I'll delete because I don't need them anymore.
- 57:47Speaker 1: I don't need to sit on things that I'm never
- 57:49Speaker 1: going to look at for a couple of years probably,
- 57:55Speaker 1: you know, it's just a waste. So I'll go in
- 57:57Speaker 1: and I'll clean all those files that I download back
- 58:00Speaker 1: out of my computer, back out of my drive. I
- 58:03Speaker 1: throw away the papers that I use for the show,
- 58:06Speaker 1: and move on to the next subject, you know. So
- 58:09Speaker 1: if the next subject was Daryl Wayne Garner, okay, I
- 58:14Speaker 1: would start back in the Baylor Archives right and search
- 58:22Speaker 1: for Daryl Garner and see what pops up and start
- 58:28Speaker 1: there and move on Wisberg Archives. What do you got
- 58:31Speaker 1: on Daryl Garner? Bang? Bang bang bang bang bang? All right,
- 58:35Speaker 1: Malcom Blunt, tell me talk to me, baby, what do
- 58:38Speaker 1: we have on Daryl Wayne Garner? And you go through
- 58:42Speaker 1: and you're gonna find different things in all these different places,
- 58:46Speaker 1: which is the insane part, Like they all just don't
- 58:51Speaker 1: have the same things sitting there. So that's why you
- 58:54Speaker 1: need as many of these resources as you can check
- 58:56Speaker 1: them all because, like I said, they're all gonna have
- 58:58Speaker 1: different things. Ever know what you're gonna find, and it's
- 59:02Speaker 1: just it's fun, man, it's freaking fun. So we'll end
- 59:07Speaker 1: this here. We'll call it part one. We'll wrap it
- 59:10Speaker 1: up next week with Part two of how to be
- 59:14Speaker 1: a good JFK Researcher. If I can do it, trust me,
- 59:19Speaker 1: you can do it too. So thank you folks for
- 59:22Speaker 1: hanging with me, and we'll be back next week for
- 59:25Speaker 1: Part two. And that's it for Random research ramblings with
- 59:29Speaker 1: Rob sing Us out home boy.
- 59:33Speaker 2: Research, peace.
- 59:56Speaker 1: See next time, guys,
