Subject: JFK: List of Convenient Deaths
|
|
Date: 26 Mar 91 01:10:57 GMT
|
|
|
|
Here is the much requested list of people associated with the JFK
|
|
assassination whose deaths are called convenient. Bear in mind that
|
|
this is a terse summary of each individual's circumstances in relation
|
|
to the case. Therefore, you may not get the full appreciation of why
|
|
a particular death is suspicious. An asterisk indicates that a death is
|
|
particularly suspicious. Some
|
|
These deaths were part of why the House Select Committee on Assassinations
|
|
investigation got started. However, they concluded that due to the highly
|
|
varied backgrounds of people involved, a proper actuarial study was not
|
|
possible.
|
|
Aside from the likelihood of x number of deaths over a period of time
|
|
of people connected with an invenstigation, there is also the trend that
|
|
the number of deaths actually increased closer to the time of these
|
|
investigations. The listing below is grouped by investigation. Note that
|
|
in 1977, for example, before the HSCA investigation kicked off, six top
|
|
FBI officials scheduled to appear before the HSCA died. William C. Sullivan,
|
|
for example, was out hunting, when he was shot by a man with a high-powered
|
|
rifle who said he mistook Sullivan for a deer. This was *not* investigated
|
|
by anyone. And so it goes.
|
|
Some of the causes of death listed appear on the surface to be natural.
|
|
Keep in mind that the CIA developed methods to "make it look like an
|
|
accident". This was documented through the testimony of CIA technicians
|
|
to the Church committee who told of TWEP technology (Termination With
|
|
Extreme Prejudice) in 1975. These methods are designed to not be detected
|
|
in postmortem examinations. I have a couple of exerpts of declassified
|
|
CIA documents to demonstrate the case. One of the techniques involves
|
|
the injection of cancer cells, heart attack inducement, as well as non-
|
|
chemical techniques which require no special equipment. Based on the
|
|
strange circumstances of Jack Ruby's death in prison (he died from lung
|
|
cancer but the cancer cells were not the type that originate in the
|
|
respiratory system). Ruby wrote notes and spoke to several people saying
|
|
that jfk was killed by a conspiracy and that he had been maneuvered into
|
|
killing Oswald who was a fall guy. He claimed to have been injected with
|
|
cancer cells when treated with shots for a cold. He died just before he
|
|
was to testify in Congress. He had told congressional investigators that
|
|
he wanted to talk but he needed protection.
|
|
This list does not include the names of the many people who claimed that
|
|
their lives were threatened physically and verbally, as well as the many
|
|
people questioned by the FBI who were intimidated and forced to change their
|
|
testimony to agree with the official lone-gunman version.
|
|
This list is not meant to be proof of a conspiracy. I believe a conspiracy
|
|
took place based on a plethora of circumstantial evidence, many involving
|
|
questions that are very strange if we are to believe the lone-gunman theory.
|
|
Many of the points I have raised can be rationally explained, but it is the
|
|
confluence of many aspects of the case which make me doubt the official
|
|
version of events more than anything else.
