• Silly Gilly cites a medical journal regarding chain-of-custody.

    From John Corbett@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 12 07:52:53 2023
    Gil cited the following article from a medical journal for information about chain-of-custody:

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK551677/#:~:text=The%20continuity%20of%20possession%20of,known%20as%20the%20chain%20of

    Anyone who reads the article can see the main thrust of this article is about drug testing of athletes suspected of using performance enhancing drugs.

    The governing bodies of various sports have established their own rules of evidence handling which do not apply to criminal prosecutions. Here is a
    more pertinent article that discusses chain of custody as it pertains to criminal prosecutions:

    https://www.thoughtco.com/chain-of-custody-4589132

    They provide the following definition for chain-of-custody:

    [quote on]
    Chain of Custody Definition
    In practice, a chain of custody is a chronological paper trail documenting when, how, and by whom individual items of physical or electronic evidence—such as cell phone logs—were collected, handled, analyzed, or otherwise controlled during an
    investigation. Under the law, an item will not be accepted as evidence during the trial—will not be seen by the jury—unless the chain of custody is an unbroken and fully documented trail without gaps or discrepancies. In order to convict a defendant
    of a crime, the evidence against them must have been handled in a meticulously careful manner to prevent tampering or contamination.
    [quote off]

    Notice the requirement is DOCUMENTATION. It is not necessary for the
    first person in the chain or anyone in the chain to have to positively identify the item as the one they saw or handled. As long as the prosecution can document who found an item, whom they gave it to, and every person along
    the chain, the evidence is acceptable. Since Oswald never went to trial, there was never a need for the prosecutors to ever provide such documentation.
    Gil takes the silly position that because the DPD and the prosecutors never made public the documentation for a trial that never took place, they would have been unable to do so.

    The silliest thing of all is that even if Gil were right that the prosecutors would have been unable to establish chain-of-custody, a claim he can't prove,
    it would not require us to disregard any evidence that helps us determine the truth of the JFK assassination. We are not bound by the same rules that
    apply in criminal trials because we are not in position to deprive Oswald or anybody else of their legal rights. Our sole concern should be whether any piece of evidence is genuine. Gil can provide no evidence that the various pieces of forensic evidence such as bullets, shells, fibers, Oswald's jacket, etc. were planted or tampered with. In absence of such evidence, there is no reason for us to believe such evidence isn't authentic, especially since it all points to the same conclusion as all the other available evidence. There is nothing in the body of evidence that doesn't fit. For Gil to argue for Oswald's innocence, he is forced to argue that we should disregard all of the evidence.

    What a silly exercise by a very silly man.

    Let's flip this argument upside down since looking at things backwards seems to be the only way we can reason with some conspiracists. Imagine that a diary belonging to J. Edgar Hoover is discovered. In it Hoover writes that Oswald was an informant, that
    he was manipulated by Ruth Paine into getting the job at the TSBD. It suggests that the FBI was behind the assassination. Or certainly involved. Now, no one - certainly not the conspiracists - would say, "What about chain of possession? Is it clean? If
    it was broken then it's illegitimate and we can't use it since a court wouldn't allow it." No one. Yes, we would all ask for *verification* about the diary. Is it Hoover's handwriting? Is it legitimate? But we wouldn't say, "But the chain of custody is
    broken, we don't know how it got to us. Therefore we throw it out."
    Anyone suggesting that would be laughed out of the room. Which is what we need to do with this chain of possession/custody issue involving Oswald. It's risible.

    Clearly, you're too stupid to understand that handwritten documents

    Now, no one - certainly not the conspiracists

    - would say, "What about chain of possession? Is it clean? If it was

    True. But you haven't made any point when you agree that neither
    critics nor believers would demand a chain of custody in such a case.

    He is a moron because his example ( Hoover's diary ) is not evidence in a murder case.
    He's comparing apples and oranges.
    And even if such a thing occurred, he wouldn't believe it anyways. LOL

    BTW, can any of these assholes produce the chain of custody forms from the Dallas Police ?
    I can't find them.

    You`ll notice that whenever you employ reason against a conspiracy hobbyist they invariably try to talk over it, remove it or ignore it. Reasoning is the antithesis of their silly game playing with the evidence in this case.

    Why would you bring up rules of evidence for emails when there was no such thing at the time
    of the assassination. It seems you are just throwing shit on the wall and hoping some of it

    I've never disputed that establishing chain-of-custody is a requirement. I've disputed how you've
    claimed it is established. It is established through a PAPER TRAIL. It is not a requirement that
    every person who handled a piece of evidence to be able to positively identify it. I've also pointed
    out that the requirement only pertains to court proceedings. Once Oswald was killed there was
    no prosecution and no requirement to produce the paper trail. The WC was not required to have
    that paper trail in order to consider the various pieces of evidence against Oswald. The took
    testimony that established how the evidence was handled. Those looking at the evidence from a
    historical perspective aren't required to see that paper trail either. Just because you choose to
    foolishly turn a blind eye to the evidence is no reason everyone else should. But you have never
    been interested in the truth of the assassination. All you want to do is convince people they
    should disregard the evidence that establishes Oswald's guilt. You are pretending to be his
    defense counsel as well as the judge for your make believe trial that is never going to happen.

    These morons can't quite figure out the PURPOSE of chain of custody...
    which would, of course, be defeated if it didn't begin at the point of discovery.

    Anyone with the ability to reason can see the flaws in what you are saying (which leaves Ben and you out). Off the top of my head...

    Three cops enter a room an there is a bloody knife on the floor. By your "thinking", unless this could be determined somehow it could not be used as evidence.

    A cop is chasing an assailant with a gun. When a gun is empty the perp throws it at the cop. The cop bats away the gun, and continues the pursuit. A different cop picks up the gun. By your "thinking" the gun cannot be used as evidence, as it wasn`t the
    cop in pursuit who recovered it.

    There is a soda bottle at a murder scene. A dozen cops pass it without any thought, but then one decides it could be evidence and takes it for processing, and it yields prints of a suspect. By your "thinking" this bottle cannot be used as evidence
    because the first person who saw it didn`t recover it for evidence.

    I can think of more, and you can`t think at all.

    And you will *never* support that the legal criteria for starting a chain of custody is when the evidence is first seen. Ever.

    Let's flip this argument upside down since looking at things
    backwards seems to be the only way we can reason with some
    conspiracists.
    Who are you trying to fool? You REFUSE to "reason" with critics.

    You're simply a coward.
    Imagine that a diary belonging to J. Edgar Hoover is discovered. In
    it Hoover writes that Oswald was an informant, that he was manipulated
    by Ruth Paine into getting the job at the TSBD. It suggests that the
    FBI was behind the assassination.
    Clearly, you're too stupid to understand that handwritten documents
    carry with them another form of authentication.
    Now, no one - certainly not the conspiracists
    Nor anyone else intelligent enough to understand that handwritten
    documents can self-authenticate.

    Really? A handwritten document can self-authenticate? How would it do that? Would the handwritten document fill out a form that Gil insists is necessary (but doesn’t establish that). Would this handwritten document swear to tell the truth, and then
    testify in a legal proceeding to its authenticity?

    Wouldn’t you actually need a handwriting expert to examine the original questioned document(s) and other known documents written by the subject person to compare the handwriting and make a determination as to whether the questioned document is
    legitimate or a forgery?

    Your argument that a handwritten document is somehow self-authenticating is nonsense.

    And isn’t it true that even where this was done for Oswald’s handwriting and the questioned documents verified as Oswald’s handwriting by experts, critics still question the authenticity of those documents?

    For example, the original money order that was used to purchased the rifle that was found on the sixth floor and matched ballistically to three shells found in the building, two large fragments found in the President’s limo, and a nearly-while bullet
    found in Parkland Hospital where the two shooting victims where taken.

    Don’t critics question the legitimacy of that money order?


    - would say, "What about chain of possession? Is it clean? If it was broken then it's illegitimate and we can't use it since a court
    wouldn't allow it." No one.
    True. But you haven't made any point when you agree that neither
    critics nor believers would demand a chain of custody in such a case.
    Yes, we would all ask for *verification* about the diary. Is it
    Hoover's handwriting? Is it legitimate? But we wouldn't say, "But the chain of custody is broken, we don't know how it got to us. Therefore
    we throw it out."
    Neither would critics.

    So, double standard. Gil is asking for something - chain of custody to establish the legitimacy of various pieces of evidence - that you say is unnecessary.



    Anyone suggesting that would be laughed out of the room. Which is
    what we need to do with this chain of possession/custody issue
    involving Oswald. It's risible.
    And anyone SUGGESTING such a thing deserves to be laughed at!!!
    ROTFMAO!!!


    YOU - STEVEN - ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO TRY TO DENIGRATE LEGITIMATE CHAIN
    OF CUSTODY ISSUES by means of making up examples that have nothing to
    do with chain of custody.

    You're a moron.

    Paraphrasing, the court is entitled to presume officials did their duty in handling the evidence, absent evidence to the contrary. Gil has provided no evidence of malfeasance. This also affirms the evidence would be admissible, contrary to Gil’s
    assertions.

    There you go lying again.

    You claim that chain of custody beginning at the time of discovery is peculiar to the recovery of drug evidence by sports organizations.
    That's a lie.
    I made no such claim. You made that up. IOW, you lied. I claimed they adopted their own rules.
    While those rules may have been modeled after requirements in a criminal prosecution, those
    rules are not binding on the courts. The courts have established their own rules.

    ANY sports organization that uses mandatory drug testing for its athletes may use proven and legal methods to obtain and handle blood and urine samples,
    but they don't "establish their own rules for evidence handling".
    That's a lie.
    They're required to follow legal protocol in handling the evidence just like everyone else, otherwise, they'd be sued up the ass.
    Cite the requirement.

    My link to the NIH was an example.
    An irrelevant one.
    Chain of custody begins at the at the time of discovery for ALL evidence collected, regardless of what they're collecting and who collects it.
    It's a paper trail.

    Including electronic evidence recovered from a computer https://trustifi.com/blog/what-is-the-chain-of-custody-for-email-discovery/

    Why would you bring up rules of evidence for emails when there was no such thing at the time
    of the assassination. It seems you are just throwing shit on the wall and hoping some of it
    sticks.
    In criminal justice courses, they teach that the Chain of Custody begins at discovery for ALL forensic evidence:
    Tell us what law school you attended.
    "The chain of custody begins when the evidence is discovered." https://quizlet.com/158209007/forensic-science-the-basics-chapter-2-flash-cards/

    But then again, I guess you know better than they do.
    I've never disputed that establishing chain-of-custody is a requirement. I've disputed how you've
    claimed it is established. It is established through a PAPER TRAIL.
    It can be established through testimony. Person A testifies he found the evidence and gave it to person B. B testifies he received the evidence from A and gave it to C. C testifies he obtained it from B and then marked the evidence. He then affirms the
    evidence presented in court is the evidence he marked.

    That could have and likely would have been done for the grand jury and/or at the criminal trial.
    Forms might have been filled out as well. Since there was no grand jury nor criminal trial for a
    man who was dead, there was no need to do any of the above. It all become moot when Oswald
    was legally declared dead.

    Critics like to pretend that since person A didn’t mark the evidence (or, in Gil’s case, fill out a form) then the evidence is not admissible. That’s untrue.

    And in any case, the evidence is admissible even if person A doesn’t know the name of the person he gave the evidence to (like for CE399) and can’t swear it’s the same evidence he handled.

    See this quote on the second page here: https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1450&context=faculty_publications

    At Oswald's theoretical trial, the jury would have made a REASONED judgement as to the
    validity of CE399. They would have been told that it was positively matched to the rifle found on
    the 6th floor to the exclusion of all other weapons in the world, the same rifle that had fired the
    fragmented bullet found in the limo and the shells found at the window. Applying common sense,
    they would have concluded that CE399 was the bullet that had passed through the bodies of
    JFK and JBC. Since Gil objects to reasoning and he is the presiding judge at Oswald's
    theoretical trial, he would instruct the jury not to use their common sense. Reasoning would not
    be allowed in Gil's courtroom. For that matter, he would not have allowed the jury to see the rifle,
    the bullets, or the shells.

    “The witness’ uncertainty in identifying the object affects the weight, NOT THE ADMISSIBILITY, of the evidence” [emphasis added].

    The evidence is admissible.

    Also, don’t judge this case by today’s standards as you appear to be doing. While a paper trail may be required in court cases today, Gil has not shown it was required in 1963, nor has he established that the evidence would be inadmissible absent
    that paper trail. I guess he expects us to take us assertions on faith.

    Ironically, it was the Warren Court that created many of these additional layers of evidence
    validation, but all that was done post-assassination.

    It is not a requirement that
    every person who handled a piece of evidence to be able to positively identify it. I've also pointed
    out that the requirement only pertains to court proceedings.
    *Maybe* it pertains to current court proceedings without exception. I don’t know.

    I do know I’ve cited a legal publication where it’s stated the evidence is admissible even where there are questions regarding the legitimacy of the evidence.

    Of course Gil doesn't want to validate his claims about the rules of evidence in effect at the time.
    He simply makes assertions and demands we refute his unproven assertions. A classic case of
    burden shifting.

    Exactly.
    Once evidence is discovered, it's in someone's control.
    You can't establish a chain of custody if the person who discovered the evidence can't identify it.
    Without their identification, the evidence is not authenticated.
    Without authentication, there is no proof that the evidence wasn't tampered with or substituted.
    And THAT'S the purpose of a chain of custody: TO PROVE THAT THE ITEMS IN EVIDENCE ARE THE SAME ITEMS DISCOVERED.

    And that chain of custody does not start in an FBI lab, or with the second, third or fourth person who handled the evidence.
    It begins at the crime scene or ( if it's found outside the crime scene ) the time of discovery.

    And the basic rules regarding chain of custody, in the legal arena, are the same whether you're taking samples for drug testing, gathering electronic evidence, or
    physical evidence in a criminal case. Those rules require that the identities of everyone who handles the evidence MUST BE DOCUMENTED with the name, date and time the evidence
    was in their possession and why they had it.
    There appears to be NO DOCUMENTED CHAIN OF CUSTODY RECORDS for ANY of the evidence in this case.

    And that fact alone should give any reasonable person pause to ask the question:
    The evidence was found while the suspect was still alive and it was obvious that he'd be going to trial, so why weren't these documents filled out ?

    And if these documents WERE filled out and destroyed after Oswald was dead and there'd be no trial, where's the record that the documents were destroyed ?

    It's not rocket science. There's plenty of opportunity to tamper and substitute evidence in this case.
    And with that opportunity comes plenty of doubt of Oswald's guilt.

    It's hard to believe that there are people out there that are that stupid they can't see that.

    Hypothetical. A private citizen finds a discarded gun and turns it over to police. Police are able
    to ballistically match the gun to a recent murder. The weapon is traced to its owner who was the
    prime suspect in the murder. Police have other evidence linking him to the crime but the gun is
    essential to the prosecution's case. Do you honestly think the court is going to let a murderer

    You're right, John.
    I'm sure the Dallas Police didn't have to document the chain-of-custody of the evidence.

    I'm sure that the court would have accepted a chain of custody created from the memory of police officers.
    NOT

    But you, as a Warren Commission supporter, become a proxy for the Commission, and as such, the burden of proof is on YOU.
    It's your evidence and you need to provide it.

    I've asked you several questions that you and your asshole friends could not answer.
    I've proven that the chain of custody was broken for several pieces of evidence.
    I've listed how every major piece of evidence currently in the government's possession was never identified by the person who found it as the item they found.
    Not one, John. EVERY SINGLE PIECE.

    You haven't been able to refute one thing I've said about the chain of custody in this case.

    And you still run from the question:
    The evidence was found while the suspect was still alive and it was obvious that he'd be going to trial, these documents should have been filled out,

    so where are they ?

    This isn't about me. This is about YOU proving this statement you made:

    Of course they didn't. Those are only needed for a trial that wasn't going to happen.

    I'm sure that the court would have accepted a chain of custody created from the memory of police officers.
    NOT

    Show us the requirement that a chain-of-custody form has to be filled out at the time the
    evidence is collected.

    But you, as a Warren Commission supporter, become a proxy for the Commission, and as such, the burden of proof is on YOU.

    Classic burden shift. The WC had no requirement for chain-of-custody forms and have no
    burden of proof to produce something that wasn't required. You continue to cling to the silly
    idea that the WC was conducting a criminal trial and the same rules of evidence applied to
    them.

    It's your evidence and you need to provide it.

    The evidence was provided to the WC by the various law enforcement agencies that took part
    in the investigation. The WC documented the evidence in is 26 volumes of exhibits and
    testimony.


    I've asked you several questions that you and your asshole friends could not answer.

    Nor did we need to.
    I've proven that the chain of custody was broken for several pieces of evidence.

    You've claimed it, never supported it.

    I've listed how every major piece of evidence currently in the government's possession was never identified by the person who found it as the item they found.

    You've never cited a legal source that indicates that is a requirement.

    Not one, John. EVERY SINGLE PIECE.

    You haven't been able to refute one thing I've said about the chain of custody in this case.

    We've tried to explain to you that the rules for chain of custody only apply at a criminal trial
    that in Oswald's case never took place. You can lead a horse to water...

    And you still run from the question:

    We've pointed out to you numerous times that your question is moot.

    The evidence was found while the suspect was still alive and it was obvious that he'd be going to trial, these documents should have been filled out,

    Jack Ruby made that unnecessary.

    https://www.thoughtco.com/chain-of-custody-4589132
    so where are they ?

    Be sure to let us know when you find out.

    This isn't about me. This is about YOU proving this statement you made:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.conspiracy.jfk/c/6XMI-cxztKo/m/ETkARmrNAwAJ

    I should have been more precise in my wording on was on later occasions. There was no chain
    of custody issue because there wasn't going to be a trial. What I should have said and later did
    is that the DPD and the prosecutor would have been able to produce that if needed. How do I
    know that? Because they had prosecuted lots of cases and knew what the rules of evidence
    were. It's rather silly to think that in most important prosecution they would ever have conducted,
    they would not have been able to do something so routine. Whether they had already filled out
    the forms before Oswald was murdered is something I do not know nor do I need to. Did they
    file these forms after Oswald was murdered. Again, that's something I don't know nor do I need
    to. The WC did not require chain-of-custody forms because they were not conducting a criminal
    trial. They took testimony from the various investigators that established the validity of the
    evidence. Nobody who is trying to determine the truth of the assassination needs to have the
    chain-of-custody documented in order to consider the probative value of the evidence in question. It's only silly people like you who fantasize about being Oswald's defense counsel
    who make these silly, irrelevant demands to validate the evidence.


    We're still waiting for YOU to show us that documentation YOU say exists.

    As I've tried to clarify, I have no idea if the documentation was ever produced and if so if it was
    ever filed away after Oswald's death. I do know that the documentation was never needed.

    Are you going to show us the documentation, or are you going to keep running like the liar you are ?

    Are you going to continue on your never ending snipe hunt? I know. Stupid question.

    Apparently, Ben realizes that discussion with you is a waste of time.

    Right, because he’s not able to make a reasoned argument and support it with evidence.

    So he resorts to falsely attributing something to me and asking me to support it. And is stuck posting the same false claims repeatedly — like a broken record.

    A decade or so ago, on Amazon, Ben used to at least *try* to have a discussion about the evidence.
    It takes two.

    And you bailed. You no longer discuss the evidence with me. You are reducing to attributing false statements to me and asking me to support things I never said.


    Now he studiously avoids going near any discussion of the evidence
    You're CLEARLY a blatant liar... trying to claim that the Autopsy
    Report isn't evidence. Or the medical testimony...

    No, never said that. Two more false statements you invented and are putting in my mouth.



    You should be ashamed.


    and instead wants to constantly change the subject to the claims
    he’s falsely attributing to me.
    And yet, I've CITED for your assertions.

    No, you cited something different entirely and applied bizarre ‘logic’ to warp what was clearly intended as a joke into something unrecognizable.you still can’t cite for me actually making any of the claims you are attributing to me of late.

    No, never said that. Quote me saying that.

    Ben’s arguments are reduced to the importance of a broken record — a record with a skip in it… repeating the same words endlessly.

    He’s doing this with both Bud and me.

    A decade or so ago, on Amazon, Ben used to at least *try* to have a discussion about the evidence. Now he studiously avoids going near any discussion of the evidence and instead wants to constantly change the subject to the claims he’s
    falsely attributing to me.
    Apparently, Ben realizes that discussion with you is a waste of time.
    Right, because he’s not able to make a reasoned argument and support it with evidence.

    So he resorts to falsely attributing something to me and asking me to support it. And is stuck posting the same false claims repeatedly — like a broken record.
    More likely because you weasel and lie, and are not interested in discussing anything.
    Funny you can’t cite for any weaseling or lying. Your claim, your burden to support.

    I’ll discuss the Kennedy assassination with anyone. But all Ben is doing for the last month or more is attributing claims to me I never made, and shifting the burden and asking me to support those false claims.

    I’ve explained multiple times why that is wrong.
    Everybody knows your shit stinks. They can smell it for themselves and don't need me to prove it.

    Another change of subject. We weren’t discussing the smell of my excrement.

    We were discussing what Ben is falsely attributing to me. You originally tried to justify Ben’s false attributions and constant reposting of the same false claims with the excuse:
    “Apparently, Ben realizes that discussion with you is a waste of time.”

    Since then you’ve retreated in ad hominem, not even trying to justify those false attributions, and failing to support your claims of weaseling and lying:
    “More likely because you weasel and lie, and are not interested in discussing anything.”
    “Everybody knows your shit stinks. They can smell it for themselves and don't need me to prove it.”

    backwards seems to be the only way we can reason with some conspiracists.
    Who are you trying to fool? You REFUSE to "reason" with critics.

    You're simply a coward.
    Imagine that a diary belonging to J. Edgar Hoover is discovered. In
    it Hoover writes that Oswald was an informant, that he was manipulated by Ruth Paine into getting the job at the TSBD. It suggests that the
    FBI was behind the assassination.
    Clearly, you're too stupid to understand that handwritten documents
    carry with them another form of authentication.
    Now, no one - certainly not the conspiracists
    Nor anyone else intelligent enough to understand that handwritten documents can self-authenticate.
    Really? A handwritten document can self-authenticate? How would it do that? Would the handwritten document fill out a form that Gil insists is necessary (but doesn’t establish that). Would this handwritten document swear to tell the truth, and then
    testify in a legal proceeding to its authenticity?

    Wouldn’t you actually need a handwriting expert to examine the original questioned document(s) and other known documents written by the subject person to compare the handwriting and make a determination as to whether the questioned document is
    legitimate or a forgery?

    Your argument that a handwritten document is somehow self-authenticating is nonsense.

    And isn’t it true that even where this was done for Oswald’s handwriting and the questioned documents verified as Oswald’s handwriting by experts, critics still question the authenticity of those documents?

    Ben? Time to put up a reasoned argument, citing some examples of a hand-written document being “self-authenticating” as you claimed above.



    For example, the original money order that was used to purchased the rifle that was found on the sixth floor and matched ballistically to three shells found in the building, two large fragments found in the President’s limo, and a nearly-while bullet
    found in Parkland Hospital where the two shooting victims where taken.

    Don’t critics question the legitimacy of that money order?

    Don’t they, even in the face of expert testimony to the contrary? Was the money order “self-authenticating”?

    Awaiting your reasoned response, complete with evidence establishing your unproven assertion.


    - would say, "What about chain of possession? Is it clean? If it was broken then it's illegitimate and we can't use it since a court
    wouldn't allow it." No one.
    True. But you haven't made any point when you agree that neither
    critics nor believers would demand a chain of custody in such a case.

    Yet a critic posting here (Gil Jesus) is asking for us to provide the chain of custody for 60-year-old evidence that the Commission established through testimony and affidavits 59 years ago. We disagree with his assertion, and ask him him to establish
    the unsupported claim he is making.


    Yes, we would all ask for *verification* about the diary. Is it
    Hoover's handwriting? Is it legitimate? But we wouldn't say, "But the chain of custody is broken, we don't know how it got to us. Therefore
    we throw it out."
    Neither would critics.
    So, double standard. Gil is asking for something - chain of custody to establish the legitimacy of various pieces of evidence - that you say is unnecessary.

    Isn’t it true that if you wouldn’t ask for a chain of custody for Hoover’s supposed diary, it’s a double standard to ask for a chain of custody at this late date - 60 years after the assassination - for the evidence gathered against Oswald?


    Anyone suggesting that would be laughed out of the room. Which is
    what we need to do with this chain of possession/custody issue
    involving Oswald. It's risible.
    And anyone SUGGESTING such a thing deserves to be laughed at!!!
    ROTFMAO!!!


    YOU - STEVEN - ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO TRY TO DENIGRATE LEGITIMATE CHAIN
    OF CUSTODY ISSUES by means of making up examples that have nothing to
    do with chain of custody.

    You're a moron.

    So you therefore must accept the Hitler diaries as legit, and don’t need further proof they were actually written by Hitler because they are “self-authenticating”?

    Hilarious!

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler_Diaries
    “Rigorous forensic analysis, which had not been performed previously, quickly confirmed that the diaries were fakes.”

    Please tell us why you claim Hoover’s diary would be “self-authenticating” but the same wasn’t true for Hitler’s diaries. Explain the difference in the diaries that make one “self-authenticating” and the other not.

    Go ahead, we’ll wait.

    Or change the subject to made-up claims you’re trying to put in my mouth. You’re a lot better at that.

    Still a coward. It's amusing to note that critics have reasonable and
    in most cases, supported answers for anything related to this case...

    Yet believers run from virtually everything in this case.

    You can't admit that the "A.B.C.D." doesn't describe the position of
    the wound - because a fellow believer made that claim... and you can't
    point out that he's wrong.

    So *YOU* aren't honest. It's really just that simple.

    Gil has asked a multitude of questions that you've seen and are
    currently running from as well.

    I cited your claim that Chickenshit speaks for you. You were either

    That’s the logical fallacy of the false dilemma — where you offer only two choices, ignore other possibilities, and pretend there is no other choice. In fact, I already offered the correct choice (it’s clearly a joke) and you discounted it.

    Hilarious! Quote my claim *in context*.

    You are doing exactly what critics in the JFK assassination have been doing for decades. Taking claims out of context and making an issue out of those out-of-context claims. You won’t quote in context because the context establishes your falsehood. As
    it does for the critics. Mark Lane for one was an expert at citing out-of-context claims and making it appear the evidence was pointing toward conspiracy instead of directly at Oswald.

    And you know that. And so you’re stuck arguing about what you’re making up about what I supposedly said, instead of arguing for a conspiracy, because you always lose when you and I engage on that topic of the evidence in the assassination.

    Below is again your attempt to make up things I never said, in another attempt to divert from your inability to discuss the assassination and rather, make it about me. Why are you avoiding talking about the supposed conspiracy evidence, and instead
    diverting the discussion to things I never said?

    You can cry all you want, Huckster - but you're still running from
    this:
    You've claimed that the "A.B.C.D." in the Autopsy Report is the
    description of the *location* of the large head wound.

    Yet you refuse time and time again from QUOTING the preceding
    paragraph that describes what this ACTUALLY is. Why is that?

    You've also claimed that the prosectors dissected the throat wound.

    Why do you continue to refuse to cite any evidence for this?

    Why have you CONSISTENTLY run away each time I raise this issue?

    Now you've quite stupidly insisted that the bullet entered JFK's back,
    and exited the back of his head.

    I answered this post in detail. You discounted those answers. Why do you pretend I need to answer each time you raise it anew?

    And by raising it again, aren’t you conceding my point — that you’d rather talk about me than talk about the Kennedy assassination?

    When was the last time you actually posted a reasoned argument for a conspiracy in the Kennedy assassination? Citing evidence and tying the various points together to show how there must have been a conspiracy to assassinate the President? It’s been *
    years*, hasn’t it?

    Last time he went toe-to-toe with me was on the Amazon forums seven or eight years ago. He stopped doing that because he failed to win any points that way.

    Sure there is. You’re presuming what you need to prove, and asking me to support your presumption. That is a shifting ofthe burden of proof. You need to establish I said the things you insist on claiming I said. I need not support your false assertion

    You're right, John.
    I'm sure the Dallas Police didn't have to document the chain-of-custody of the evidence.

    Testimony would suffice, as it did in the Manson trial.

    But even that is unnecessary. If the chain of custody is missing, or incomplete, the evidence is still admissible. It would be the jury’s responsibility to decide how much weight to give it. This has been cited to you numerous times. You have ignored
    it on each occasion, because it conflicts with what you want to believe.

    Here it is again:
    See this quote on the second page here: https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1450&context=faculty_publications

    “The witness’ uncertainty in identifying the object affects the weight, NOT THE ADMISSIBILITY, of the evidence” [emphasis added].



    I'm sure that the court would have accepted a chain of custody created from the memory of police officers.
    NOT

    You were right the first time.



    But you, as a Warren Commission supporter, become a proxy for the Commission, and as such, the burden of proof is on YOU.

    You need to establish your assertion that any such forms were required in 1963.


    It's your evidence and you need to provide it.

    You are asserting forms were needed that you haven’t established were required. Then asking us to link to those non-existent forms.



    I've asked you several questions that you and your asshole friends could not answer.
    I've proven that the chain of custody was broken for several pieces of evidence.

    Assuming it’s true (it’s not) for the sake of argument, the evidence would still be admissible:

    See this quote on the second page here: https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1450&context=faculty_publications

    I've listed how every major piece of evidence currently in the government's possession was never identified by the person who found it as the item they found.

    And this is meaningful why?


    Not one, John. EVERY SINGLE PIECE.

    You haven't been able to refute one thing I've said about the chain of custody in this case.

    I’ve established you don’t know what you’re talking about concerning admissibility of evidence.



    And you still run from the question:
    The evidence was found while the suspect was still alive and it was obvious that he'd be going to trial, these documents should have been filled out,

    What 1963 DPD documents should have been filled out?

    Why do you continue to refuse to cite any evidence for this?

    Why have you CONSISTENTLY run away each time I raise this issue?

    Now you've quite stupidly insisted that the bullet entered JFK's back,
    and exited the back of his head.

    More cowardice, more stupidity, more dishonesty.

    Are you proud of yourself?
    You can run, Huckster - but you can't hide in an open forum - and you
    can't stop me proving your cowardice on a daily basis.

    Ben has made himself completely irrelevant with responses like this.

    So, according to Bugliosi, it was this "oval" shape that was
    "virtually conclusive evidence" of an SBT?

    Chickenshit is TERRIFIED of this simple honest question. He knows
    that Bugliosi was a moron if he truly thought this... yet you can't
    get Chickenshit to publicly acknowledge that Bugliosi said this.

    It's a simple "Yes" or "No" question, and Chickenshit cannot cite
    where he has EVER answered it. (Without immediately denying it.)

    So it's going to keep getting asked until Chickenshit answers it.

    And when you consider how irrelevant he was to begin with, this is no mean accomplishment!
