Subject: Re: Ruby

What you can't use in your conception of Ruby because you have read so little
about the subject is that the WC went out of their way to discredit
witnesses who identified Ruby at several sights through those 3 days.
Anyone, with an unbiased mind, looking at this testimony, would conclude
that these witnesses were quite credible.  Their credibility rests on
the fact that they knew him quite well and more than one person at each
sighting saw him.  The WC had no viable explanation for discounting their
testimony.  What this means is that where the WC wants you to believe that
Ruby was crying and ringing his hands over something silly like Jackie's
fate, he was really stalking LHO doggedly the whole time.  When this
scenario is finally accepted as much more credible than the fairy tale, it
predicates that the Western Union story is looked at more circumspectly.
Ruby's action becomes less of an apparent spontaneous act in relation to his
shooting and more of a planned act set within other planned acts.  In other
words, taking this into account as well as many other items such as the
calls warning of a hit, it appears that we can confidently propose that Ruby
knew ahead of time when they were bringing him down and that he also knew
that he had time to wire that money.
  Being a Belin devotee, I don't automatically assume that you will accept
this scenario.  Belin has this effect on people primarily because of the
adamant tone he takes and his reliance that the people he is talking to
has not read the actual record and knows that he is leaving out relevant
portions of the testimony.
  The fact of the dogged stalking is very solid.  I can also accept more
serendipity in the time line of this account.  Without proposing that Ruby
knew when LHO was being lead out, I can conceive that this was just another
chance for Ruby to hit LHO and if he had missed it, he would have tried
another time.
  What you should not ignore is the fact that the WC wanted the public to
see this act characterized as one of great happenstance and masked out the
determination of Ruby to gun down LHO.  The WC also masked over Ruby's
deep and strong connections to both the Mafia and the Dallas Police.
To be fair, some of these threads that we know now were withheld from the
WC by the FBI at the time.  But it is Staff member Griffin, the one who
was given the task of looking closer into Ruby that has conplained the
most about his hands being tied by upper echelon WC members and being lied
to by the FBI/CIA.
  Connects tieing Ruby to LHO have been searched for assiduously with no
conclusive results.  But the search for these is not frivolous considering
all that has been found as credible.
  You will not be apprised of these facts by reading Belin.
