Apparent clue to JFK death likely a fake. Oh?


Who'da thunk it?

A curious transcript purportedly about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination has been discovered among boxes of memorabilia that were long forgotten in an old safe at the Dallas County district attorney’s office.

While the transcript reads like a conspiracy theorist’s dream — Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby plotting to kill Kennedy — the DA’s top assistant said it’s likely material for a proposed movie.

Much…is bound to focus on the transcript, supposedly from a meeting between Ruby and Oswald at Ruby’s nightclub on October 4, 1963, less than two months before the November 22 assassination. In it, they talk of killing the president because the Mafia wants to “get rid of” his brother, Attorney General Robert Kennedy.

Says Oswald in the transcript, “I can still do it, all I need is my rifle and a tall building; but it will take time, maybe six months to find the right place; but I’ll have to have some money to live on while I do the planning.”

This is a conspiracy theorist’s wet dream.
