• Vincent Bugliosi's 53 Reasons - #53 - Refuted (Watch Corbutt Run!!)

    From Ben Holmes@21:1/5 to All on Fri Aug 4 07:13:06 2023
    Finally at the end - and David Von Pein has shown that these
    refutations are so powerful that he dared to answer only a few. Quite
    the coward, David... pretending to defend Bugliosi - but when it comes
    to a knowledgeable critic's refutation - David simply ran away.

    Corbutt did the same - simply ran.

    Huckster has been amazingly silent.

    Even Chickenshit has kept silent a number of times...

    The cowardice is AMAZING when you post facts.


    (53) Oswald told Fritz he had bought his .38 caliber Smith & Wesson
    revolver in Fort Worth, when he actually purchased it from a
    mail-order house in Los Angeles.

    This is another one of those twisted tales... first let's look at
    Fritz' testimony

    Mr. BALL. What about the pistol that he had on him when he was
    arrested, did you question him about that this morning?
    Mr. FRITZ. That morning?
    Mr. BALL. Your notes show that you did.
    Mr. FRITZ. Yes, sir; I talked to him about the pistol and asked him
    where he got it.
    Mr. BALL. What did he say?
    Mr. FRITZ. He told me he had got it about 6 or 7 months before in Fort
    Worth but he wouldn't tell me where he got it. When I asked him a
    little further about that he told me he didn't want to talk any
    further about the pistol.

    So how can declining to state where he purchased the gun be
    transformed, in Bugliosi's mind, to a definite statement that he
    purchased a gun in Fort Worth???

    Fritz' testimony makes clear that Oswald didn't say this. So it's
    simply not true that Oswald said he'd purchased the gun in Fort Worth.
    Indeed, he may have purchased A GUN while living in Fort worth. But
    let's check Fritz' notes:

    "Says bgt gun 7 mo Ft W. didn't know what place" http://www.maryferrell.org/mffweb/archive/viewer/showDoc.do?docId=29103

    Again, supporting in this case, Fritz' testimony that Oswald wouldn't
    say where he got it. Note that in Fritz' testimony, he says "he
    wouldn't tell me where he got it" - but in his notes, it was merely
    "didn't know what place".

    But, let's double-check Fritz' memory... let's go to the FBI's written
    report on this interrogation, and see if they support the fact that
    Oswald did NOT state what Bugliosi claimed:

    Oswald stated that he purchased a pistol, which was taken off him by
    police officers November 22, 1963, about 6 months ago. He declined to
    state where he had purchased it.

    So everyone agrees that Oswald either "declined to state", "wouldn't
    say", or simply didn't know where he'd bought it. It was, after all,
    actually 10 months later... he may not truly have remembered where he
    got it.

    And, as his brother Robert claims, Oswald had bought more than one
    pistol. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jim-calio/lee-harvey-oswalds-other-_b_4205681.html

    But it's an outright lie on Bugliosi's part to claim that Oswald had
    lied about where he purchased the pistol.
