I believe Oswald acted alone. I have a bucket full of assasination books but I only recommend one:
"Case Closed" by Gerald Posner. Posner lays out the facts and systematically destroys the theorists assertions on all fronts. Furthermore, over the years I have met numerous people, one, the former #2 guy at the Philadelphia FBI office (retired) agrees too. See, no conspiracy of any magnitude has ever succeeded. A Philly detective friend of mine told me, "You get two people knock off a bar, pop a couple patrons; someone always talks." Even in the mob. One may say, "What about Hoffa?" Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran claims he knocked off Hoffa with two bullets to the back of the head in '75. Sheeran died in a nursing home outside of Philadelphia in 2003. The case is still open and assigned to a Chicago FBI agent.

That's sort of the definition of "succeeded".

Yep, hitting a moving target 2 out 3 times (through branches w/o leaves) in approx 5 seconds with a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle is ANYTHING but easy.

with respect to a carcano, frigging impossible is much more the truth

You make good arguments, but what's your theory on Jack Ruby's motive for shooting Oswald?

Do you buy his "I did it for Jackie and the kids." motive?
Was Ruby just a small-time hustler and Kennedy supporter who gave no real thought to the consequences of murdering a man he never knew in plain sight of police and witnesses?

Jack Ruby never thought he'd spend a day in jail. This was the guy that killed the President.

Jack Ruby had no connections to the mob. The mob would NEVER, EVER associate with the biggest mouth in the city.J

ack Ruby had a hot temper, a big mouth, and a constant desire to be noticed and have his name known. HE would speak of himself as controversial and colorful. He thought he was bigger than he actually was.

When JFK was assassinated, Ruby took it VERY hard. I'll remind you, he wasn't that stable to begin with. He closed his club, and his friends and family described him as sobbing that day.

Now, had it been a plan for Ruby to assassinate Oswald, Oswald would have HAD to be in on it. Why? Ruby arrived in that garage a minute before he shot Oswald. This is known because he was at the Western Union across the street just before, and there was a time-stamped receipt.

Oswald was supposed to be moved before, but his interrogation lasted longer than planned. Just before being moved, he asked for a change of clothes. It took a few minutes for them to find him a sweater to put on.

As he was being escroted, Ruby recalled, "I saw on his face that he had a little smirk, like he was enjoying this. I thought, 'you little bastard' and I shot him."

Jack Ruby was well known to the Dallas PD and the DA, but more for being an annoyance and certainly not for being a criminal. After he was arrested, he was jovial and jolly, joking, "That was a one in a million chance."

He was now the man who avenged the killing of a beloved president. There's no way he'd do time. He thought he be viewed as a hero. He was wrong.

Then, add the crap that Melvin Belli pulled as his defense attorney (he did it "for free" but actually in exchange for rights to Ruby's story). Belli, the self-profesed "King of Torts" was the Johnny Cochrane of the day. He cooked up an insanity defense that went nowhere. That trial fucking destroyed Jack Ruby.

Ruby's madness reached a zenith before his death. He thought that Jews were being exterminated in the prison.

Look at Ruby the man and you'll understand it.

I think two people. Oswald and a shooter from the front.

I have been to the 6th floor and looked at the shot . It would have been easy to take. The car was moving slow and almost directly away.

However, 3 shots in that time, with that weapon. Not as likely. Also, the fatal shot does seem to come from the front by the bodies reaction.

I would guess that LHO was supposed to do it by himself, but there was a second to ensure a fatal shot.

Also from a tatical standpoint the hairpin turn right before the road that the attack took place meant that the car had to almost slow to a complete stop. That is the best location to strike IMO.
Almost directly infront of the nest.

After reading some of the other crap on SC, I think W did it. Or Clinton. Depending on whose side you are on one of them had to have a hand in it.

I used to have a 6.5 Carcano... and it was fairly accurate ( it did not have a shot out barrel)....I coulda made that shot.... maybe it was me.
