Description
Excerpts from Articles INTRODUCTION Oswald in New Orleans Conspiracy QUOTE: "After two years of intense publicity and legal appeals, the trial of Clay Shaw began in January 1969. Garrison's prosecutors produced witnesses and for the first time in a public setting, the famous Zapruder film of the assassination showing Kennedy's head moving violently leftward and backward after being struck, convincing many courtroom observers, including the jurors, that a conspiracy indeed existed. However, in making its case against Shaw, the prosecution proved wanting. Once again, Russo testified about the party, but subjected to a withering cross-examination, he didn't come across as a highly credible witness. A convicted heroin dealer named Vernon Bundy testified that he saw Shaw and Oswald exchange an envelope on the Lake Pontchartrain seawall. Seven witnesses from Clinton, La., stated that they saw Shaw, Ferrie and Oswald together there in late August '63. The most compelling witness that Garrison seemed to produce was a New York accountant named Charles Speisel. Unlike the former inmate Russo, Speisel, well dressed and well spoken, appeared quite credible when he testified that he also had attended a party, this one at a house on Esplanade Avenue, in which Ferrie, Shaw and Oswald also discussed assassinating the president."

Now his son was sitting in the White House, and how did the president-elect and his brother, the attorney general, repay the favors? They turned on the Mob with a vengeance. "Carlos Marcello, the Mob boss in New Orleans, was under indictment, and Robert Kennedy's Organized Crime Task Force was bearing down on the Dallas crime family headed by Joe Civello. Something had to be done, and soon. That is why several high-ranking Mob figures had been summoned to New Orleans. It was at this meeting that the plan to assassinate President Kennedy was finalized. This is the story that has been waiting to be told for 50 years." Hinrichs' 186-page paperback from SynergEbooks casts Lee Harvey Oswald in the title role of patsy. But Oswald sees himself as "the leading man in this drama that shocked the nation and the world, giving him what he had been searching for his whole life.""
