Reply #72: But the question remains: Was he the hit man or the mastermind?

[elias7]

I grant physical evidence re: kennedy/tippit/walker, though I have trouble with the single bullet theory, that dropped spontaneously and unscathed out of Connally's leg after its incredible journey.

That he was able to get a job through a friend at the depository, learn of the presidential visit and travel path, and access a private space up high to shoot, is very lucky indeed. It would make an excellent cover story.

He went after Walker for being a fascist. What was he going after Kennedy for? Motive is thinner than many other cast of characters that this thread brings up.

My only question is: Was he a hitman for other interests. Probably never provable, but that is not a proof.
