RE: The Cyril H. Wecht Institute of Forensic Science and Law National
Symposium: "Making Sense of the Sixties-–A National Symposium on the
Assassinations and Political Legacies of Martin Luther King, Jr.,
Robert F. Kennedy, and John F. Kennedy"
Location of conference: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Dates: October 3 - October 5, 2008
>>> "The final panel discussion, "Where do we go from here?", included more talk of possible Congressional Oversight Hearings on the JFK Act, the idea of a grand jury investigation, and the mobilization of a response to the forthcoming HBO miniseries based on [Vincent] Bugliosi's book. Not discussed is why someone doesn't produce a real documentary film on the real issues of the JFK assassination and tell the story of what really happened." <<<
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
That's already been done....many years ago in fact....in 1964....by
David L. Wolper and company....when the best film ever made on the JFK
assassination was produced...."Four Days In November":
Conspiracy theorists, after 45 years now, just cannot come to grips
with "what really happened" in Dealey Plaza on 11/22/63. And, sadly,
they probably never will come to grips with the reality of what really
happened -- i.e., a kooky 24-year-old guy named Lee took his own rifle
with him to work on November 22, and was lucky enough to have a whole
floor of his workplace all to himself at just the right time at 12:30
PM, and he fired the bullets from his own rifle that ended President
Kennedy's life.
It doesn't get much simpler than that. And that "simple" reality is
supported by all of the physical evidence (and most of the
circumstantial evidence) connected with the JFK murder case.
And there is nothing on this Earth that any individual conspiracy
theorist or group of conspiracy theorists can do that will change that
immutable reality concerning the evidence that exists in this case.
Maybe it's time for Dr. Cyril H. Wecht to hang it up. Because 45 years
is an awfully long time to search for the goose that has yet to lay
that golden conspiracy-proving egg.
But, then too, for some people (like certain conspiracy theorists), it
would seem that the "search" is the most important thing that they
have to live for -- and certainly the ONLY thing they have to hang
onto in this case.
Never mind the fact that in 45 years of constant, never-ending
"searching", nobody has come close to proving Lee Harvey Oswald's
innocence.*
* = Yes, I know that CTers will respond to that last paragraph with --
"What are you talking about, you idiot?! It's YOU who must 'prove'
Oswald's GUILT; not the other way around."
Well, folks, Oswald's guilt HAS been proven....many times over....and
beyond all reasonable doubt. Anyone who is still in doubt about the
guilt or innocence of Lee Harvey Oswald after 45 years' worth of
looking into the evidence surrounding this case (including the
official declarations of Oswald's guilt proclaimed by both the Warren
Commission and the House Select Committee on Assassinations) should
certainly consider pursuing a new hobby -- because this JFK thing just
isn't right for them at all.
And never mind the fact that after all those decades of non-stop
searching, nobody has come close to "proving" that any kind of
conspiracy existed in the death of President John F. Kennedy.
You'd think that after 45 years of running into roadblocks and dead-
end streets, these people searching for that elusive conspiracy plot
to murder the President in '63 would finally just stop trying....and
realize that they are searching for something (i.e., the truth of
the JFK assassination) that was located and properly identified four-
and-a-half decades ago.
