Conference Speakers
Presenter Gary Aguilar
Topic Junk Science and the Death of JFK - What We Know Now that We Didn't Know Then Summary In a History News Network Interview, attorney Vincent Bugliosi opined “[e]verything pointed toward Oswald’s guilt. All the physical evidence, all the scientific evidence.” At one time it might have been reasonable to believe that. But no longer. Discoveries and disclosures over the decades have knocked the struts out from under the medical and scientific case for a lone assassin. This presentation will outline important discoveries concerning JFK’s autopsy, the bullets, the government’s trajectory analysis and its duplication experiments.
Presenter Joseph Backes
Topic The Withheld Until 2017 Documents
Summary Will demonstrate, based on information published in The Federal Register and from the Assassination Records Review Board the totality of documents withheld until 2017.
Presenter Russ Baker
Topic Warren Commission Staff Role in Cover-up
Summary Evidence the commission intended a cover-up. Special focus on key staffers, especially Albert Jenner and his patron, businessman Henry Crown. Jenner handled the highly sensitive witness, George de Mohrenschildt
Presenter G. Robert Blakey
Topic The HSCA and the CIA: The View from the Trenches and from the Top (with G. Robert Blakey and Dan Hardway)
Summary Blakey will discuss the House Select Committee on Assassinations
Presenter Malcolm Blunt
Topic Classified Files and Related Material
Summary Will conduct a Q&A on NARA, Warren Commission Files, the Church Committee, CIA (personalities, record keeping, etc)
Presenter Rex Bradford Topic The Church Committee and CIA Assassination Plots
Summary The mid-1970s "Church Committee," revealed CIA plots to assassinate Fidel Castro and other foreign leaders and issued a scathing rebuke of the Warren Commission's reliance on CIA and FBI officials, whom Senator Schweiker declared "directed the cover-up". This talk discusses the Committee's findings and the state of Church Committee records, most of which are still withheld.
Presenter Brenda Brody
Topic What the National Security Archive Means to the Research Community
Summary After a long effort by the National Security Archive (NSA, the CIA finally declassified and released four of the five volumes written about the Bay of Pigs by their in-house historian. The volumes tell an amazing story, and there are many reasons to believe that the final unreleased volume contains important new information.
Presenter Walt Brown
Topic The Dulles Commission-the 50th Anniversary
Summary “The Dulles Commission” will demonstrate that Earl Warren was but a figurehead on the “Warren” Commission, and that the real leadership of the official investigation into the murder of John F. Kennedy was Allen Dulles, former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency
Presenter Brian Connors*
Topic Dramatization of 1/22/64 Executive Session Transcript
Summary The theater event is a reading of the January 22nd Warren Commission Executive session transcript. This session was convoked on an emergency basis because Warren Commission General Counsel J. Lee Rankin had received that morning a call from Texas Attorney General Wagoner Carr reporting credible information that Oswald was an FBI agent and had an FBI informant number. The Warren Commission discussed this in a very agitated state, speculating that because there were "all kinds of leads" pointing to a conspiracy that had not been checked out, the fact that J. Edgar Hoover was saying Oswald was the only guilty party meant he was trying to close the case without any real investigation of it. [The FBI] "would like to have us fold up and quit," observes one Commissioner. "This closes the case you see? Don't You see?" adds another. "They found their man. There is nothing more to do. The Commission supports their conclusions and we can go home and that is the end of it," opines another participant. Finally former CIA Director and Warren Commissioner Allen Dulles suggests: "I think this record should be destroyed. Do you think we need to record this?"
The transcript was not typed up until more than a decade later, when, under pressure from Representative Bella Abzug, the GSA finally produced a transcript prepared by a Pentagon steno typist rather than a Ward & Paul official court reporter. The transcript blows the myth of the Warren Commission's belief in the lone assassin theory to smithereens.
Presenter Alan Dale
Topic Moderator
Presenter Jim DiEugenio
Topic Who was John F. Kennedy, and Why was He Murdered?
Summary James DiEugenio will discuss long-overlooked and belatedly discovered evidence and leads, such as: Oswald did not order the alleged assassination rifle; and JFK’s hidden foreign policy initiatives and their reversal after his death. The presentation also will describe why historians have only recently addressed such topics.
Presenter Marie Fonzi
Topic On the Home front
Summary Marie Fonzi will share personal anecdotes related to Gaeton Fonzi's groundbreaking Arlen Specter interviews, as well as Fonzi's visit to de Mohrenschildt on the morning of his death. She will relate what was Gaeton's and later her Odyssey, leading to Antonio Veciana's 2013 admission of the real identity of his CIA contact.
Presenter Buell Wesley Frazier
Topic The Oswald I Knew
Summary Frazier worked with Lee Harvey Oswald at the Book Depository and drove him to work that fateful day. He describes an intelligent and well-read man who was loved by and loved children. Frazier’s description of a thin package that he carried to work that day cannot be reconciled with the Warren Commission’s insistence that it was the much longer and much bulkier disassembled rifle allegedly used to assassinate President Kennedy.
Presenter Robert Groden Topic A View From The Grassy Knoll
Summary An overview of the most important of the early photographic evidence that I presented before Congress in 1975 which prompted Congressman Thomas Downing to introduce the resolution to re-investigate the assassination of President Kennedy and the first showing of the Zapruder film on Goodnight America in 1975.
Presenter Eric Hamburg
Topic Conversations with Fabian Escalante and E. Howard Hunt: Two views of the Kennedy assassination

Presenter Larry Hancock
Topic A Political H Bomb - How John Roselli and William Harvey Preempted the Garrison Investigation in Washington D.C.

Presenter Dan Hardway
Topic The HSCA and the CIA: The View from the Trenches and from the Top (With G. Robert Blakey and Ed Lopez)
Summary These three alumni of the House Select Committee on Assassinations will provide insight into their roles and evidence of how they were stonewalled and interfered with.
Presenter Mal Hyman
Topic LBJ's Media Damage Control
Summary Lyndon Johnson's phone calls in the immediate aftermath of the JFK assassination reveal his aggressive courtship of the mass media. Johnson quickly understood he would have to contend with competing and murky investigations with enormous implications.
Presenter David Kaiser
Topic What I've Learned Since The Road to Dallas
Summary While nothing has emerged since 2008 to alter Kaiser’s conclusions of The Road to Dallas, a number of new facts about important aspects of the case have come to light regarding the Odio incident, the possible role of the CIA in New Orleans in the summer of 1963, and some interesting information from Carlos Bringuier's book. Kaiser will also discuss possible new areas of research in FBI and CIA archives.
Presenter Bill Kelly
Topic The Air Force One Tapes
Summary William Kelly, co-founder of the Committee for an Open Archives and an original member of COPA, transcribed two versions of the Air Force One radio tapes and arranged for an acoustical expert to refine and combine them. He will introduce a new, two-hour, high-fidelity, broadcast-quality version of the tapes.
Presenter Peter Kornbluh
Topic Kennedy's Secret Efforts at Rapprochement with Castro
Summary In his last foreign policy act as President, John Kennedy was attempting to explore an accommodation with Fidel Castro's Cuba; indeed an emissary was on a "mission of peace" to Havana, meeting with Castro, at the very moment the President was shot in Dallas. Kornbluh will offer a comprehensive account of the Kennedy-Castro détente, and how it evolved in the aftermath of the Bay of Pigs and the Cuban Missile Crisis into a secret dialogue in 1963, abetted by the assistance of a New York lawyer and an ABC journalist as back channel intermediaries.
Presenter Andrew Kreig
Topic The JFK Murder Cover-up’s Long Shadow
Summary Debunks the myth that JFK research has scant continuing importance. He presents research showing that the unsolved murder and cover-up undermine democracy, much as feared by Truman, Eisenhower and JFK. Today’s results show empowerment of anti-democratic forces that include Wall Street and their de facto minions in the intelligence agencies, as well as cowardly and self-serving policies by government officials. Meanwhile legal and media watchdog institutions mask their self-censorship and fear on all manner of issue with vacuous self-promotion.
Presenter Peter Kuznick
Topic JFK: To the Brink
Summary American University historian Dr. Peter Kuznick draws from the JFK segment of his 2012 documentary film series and book produced in collaboration with Oliver Stone –“The Untold History of the United States.”
The film episode shows why President Kennedy’s policies, including those JFK proposed in a speech in 1963 at American University, antagonized powerful interests.
Presenter James Lesar
Topic NARA and CIA Thwart Congress and JFK Act Goal
Summary Congress unanimously passed the JFK Act to ensure that the American public would be fully informed about the President's assassination. NARA and the CIA have joined forces to defeat that goal in violation of the law. Congress must act to correct this outrage.
Presenter Ed Lopez with Dan Hardway and G. Robert Blakey
Topic The HSCA and the CIA: The View from the Trenches and from the Top (with G. Robert Blakey and Dan Hardway)
Summary This presentation will cover the relationship between the CIA and the HSCA from the perspective of a researcher working daily with agency records and from the chief of staff of the Committee. The presentation will address the history of Congressional investigations into the CIA and its activities, as well as the fundamental flaws in the structure, whether the structure is compatible with the fundamental principles of our form of constitutional government, and possible solutions to the problems posed by the structural problems of, and created by, intelligence agency secrecy and lack of accountability.
Presenter David Mantik
Topic Fifteen Clues to the Occipital Origin of the Harper Fragment
Summary This presentation will review the photographs and X-rays of the Harper fragment and list fifteen independent and self-consistent clues for its origin from JFK’s upper occiput. This lecture is an excerpt from a comprehensive essay on the Harper fragment.

Summary This presentation will expose long-protected pseudonyms for some of the CIA’s most notorious officers connected with the JFK case – including David Phillips and Antonio Sforza. It will also preview an important multiple identity in Newman’s forthcoming book, “Where Angels Tread Lightly.”
Presenter Lisa Pease
Topic James Jesus Angleton and The Warren Commission
Summary James Jesus Angleton, the CIA’s longtime and controversial counterintelligence chief, was the CIA’s official liaison to the Warren Commission and also controlled the CIA’s liaison with the FBI. He enjoyed a close friendship with Warren Commission member and former CIA Chief Allen Dulles. Add it all up and you have a man with a unique ability to influence and shape the Warren Report by controlling which information did and didn’t reach the Commission.
Presenter Jerry Policoff
Topic The Blurry Line Between JFK Media Coverage and Government Manipulation of the News
Summary Explores the intelligence connections of many journalists whose JFK coverage served the interests of the government and the Intelligence Community.
Presenter Dr. Grover B. Proctor Jr.
Topic The Raleigh Call and the Fingerprints of Intelligence
Summary The HSCA concluded that Lee Oswald attempted to call a former Army Counterintelligence agent from the Dallas jail. Who told him to, with whom he was working, and does it prove the “fingerprints of intelligence”?
Presenter Randy Robertson
Topic The JFK Assassination: 5 Shots + 3 Shooters + 3 Snipers' Nests = CONSPIRACY
Summary An analysis and synchronization of the JFK assassination acoustics and photographic evidence.
Presenter Bill Simpich
Topic How Captain Westbrook and the Tippit Shooting Provide a Counter-Narrative to the Warren Report
Summary TV news footage taken at the scene of the Tippit shooting on November 22, 1963 shows a Dallas Police officer handling a wallet that appears to be that of Lee Harvey Oswald, yet Dallas police authorities have consistently maintained that the wallet was taken from Oswald's back pocket after his arrest in the Texas Theater. There is a major conflict between FBI accounts and Dallas Police accounts of where the wallet was found, and combined with other evidence found at the Tippit crime scene it suggests a counter-narrative of the entire Warren Report.
Presenter Pat Speer
Topic The Single-Bullet Theory, Voodoo Science, and Zombie Lies
Summary A critical look at the single-bullet theory, focusing on the Warren Commission's inaccurate depiction of the back wound location, and the probability it was an orchestrated lie.
Presenter Oliver Stone
Topic He will address the Conference via a pre-recorded message before the Banquet Presenter Tony Summers

Presenter Ernst Titovets
Topic A Russian Friend Describes ‘The Real Oswald’
Summary Ernst Titovets became Lee Harvey Oswald’s closest and only English-speaking friend from 1959-1962 when Oswald lived in Minsk, then part of the Soviet Union. Titovets chronicled his friendship with Oswald in his 2010 book “Oswald: Russian Episode,” where Oswald emerges as a fully human character. During the period in Minsk, Oswald was under constant surveillance by the KGB, anxious to learn if his defection was a ruse.
Presenter David Talbot
Topic A panelist and discussing his forthcoming book about Allen Dulles, introducing 1/22/64 dramatization.
Presenter Don Thomas
Topic The Tippitt Murder: The Rosetta Stone of the Warren Commission Cover-Up
Summary The Warren Commission as a potential staging point for an escape plan. Instead the Warren Commission covered up actions by Dallas police officers Murray Jackson, Harry Olsen, Ronald Nelson and Tippit that suggest an involvement with Oswald’s escape.
Topic 2 Breaking Open the Cover Up – Acoustics Evidence Analysis
Summary 2 Acoustical experts for the HSCA determined that the Dallas Police radio system had captured the assassination gunfire and that it included a gunshot from the grassy knoll. Not one of the many challenges to these findings has stood up to scrutiny. Dr. Thomas will demonstrate that the latest 2013 challenge, which asserted that the that the ambient sounds on the police recording originated from a different location and are motorcycle motor noises in reality adds further corroboration to the Acoustical evidence. Presenter Antonio Veciana
Topic “Maurice Bishop, my CIA contact agent, was David Atlee Phillips, the man I saw with Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas.”
Summary Antonio Veciana, the founder of the CIA funded anti-Castro organization Alpha-66, met Lee Harvey Oswald in the company of his CIA official Maurice Bishop. He now confirms the case developed by House and Senate investigator Gaeton Fonzi that Bishop was an alias of David Atlee Phillips, the high-ranking CIA official responsible for all CIA operations in the Western Hemisphere At the time.
Presenter Lamar Waldron
Topic Withheld in Full
Summary "Withheld in Full" focuses on crucial CIA, FBI, and military intelligence files that were withheld not only from the Warren Commission, but also from the Church Committee, the HSCA, and even the ARRB.
Presenter Cyril Wecht
Topic 2 Autopsies; 2 Cover-ups: JFK and RFK
Summary The JFK autopsy report and the RFK autopsy report are studies in contrast. The former was a superficial, incomplete, inadequate effort. The RFK autopsy was thorough and effective, yet both offer persuasive evidence of more than one assassin.
Presenter David Wrone
Topic The Warren Report as a Political Document
Summary Using common historical principles a critical examination of the Warren Report shows it to be a whitewash, not a celebrated report on the criminal investigation of the crime, but a carefully crafted political document largely dross and primarily diversion from the true facts, suffused with corruption of the evidentiary base.
