JFK assassination ~"In December, 1963, I received a telephone call from Marguerite Oswald. She said that she had read the article I had written. 'I know that you don't say my son was innocent but you do say that there is doubt and that he is entitled to be presumed innocent until he has had a trial. Well then I ask you now, will you be my son's lawyer before the Warren Commission?' I accepted and thus began an investigation that has continued for more than two and one half years. I have read the Report of the Commission, the twenty~six volumes of testimony upon which it was presumably based, and the material that has been made available in the National Archives. I have traveled to Dallas seven times. I have interviewed witnesses on film and tape from Dallas to Maine. The force of the evidence is inescapable~the case against Oswald as the lone assassin is refuted by the very witnesses upon whom the Commission relied. The FBI Report devastates the Commission's conclusions that all of the shots were fired from the rear and that they were fired by a lone assassin. In a book published by a member of the Warren Commission, the author stated: 'Let those who scoff at the report bury themselves for ten months in the monumental record. After that, if they persist in their skepticism, that's their privilege. May they add to the truth so long as it is the truth and not mere speculation.' For far more than ten months I have studied the body of evidence in this case. I have no theories as to who killed the President or as to why it was done. This book, then, is, in a sense, a response to the invitation tendered by Congressman Ford.".
