(62,325 posts)have said I read. I read your link, I have commented already on the ridiculousness and unprofessionalism of those practically illegible notes, and yes I read the transcriptions. That was all that was recorded from over 12 hours of interrogation.
I did not say that no one else took notes or arranged to have the interview recorded. I said the Chief Investigator took no notes. His testimony before the WRC was from his memory. We have to trust him not to have distorted Oswald's hours long responses. Sorry but I wouldn't trust my best friend to have good a memory. Let alone someone who might have had an agenda to only remember what was convenient.
And the door was left open by the lack of professionalism, for people to speculate on what motives there might have been for handling it this way, and on the testimony itself. We have zero proof iow, that what was recorded as testimony by the WC were the true facts as they happened. We should never have had any doubt left about that.
They could have had it recorded by a secretary in shorthand, which was available at the time. They could have taped recorded it. There were so many ways to get that historical interview recorded for posterity.
Your link showed 5 pieces of paper that looked like it took all of ten minutes to write. From 12 hours of questioning.
The lack of professionalism is simply stunning. At every level, according even to the WC itself. At the CIA and FBI levels and at the Dallas Police level. It is no wonder Kennedy was so easily assassinated.
The sheer neglect and stupidity of what was supposed to be the duty of all these agencies to protect the US President from harm was beyond belief. He was iow, an open target due to the unbelievable incompetence as recorded by the WC.
And that is why people have questions. Because most Americans believed their security systems were the best in the world. That the US President was safe in the hands of our security agencies. And that when a crime of this magnitude was committed, we could depend on the best law enforcement agencies in the world, to ensure that the investigation would be state of the art. A model for law enforcement.
Instead we learned, and this is not disputable, it is not a CT, it is recorded as fact in the WCR, there was massive failure at all levels. Both before and after. And then to add insult to injury, they exposed the most important suspect/witness to danger instead of protecting him, and he too, like Kennedy, was murdered.
With just this much information alone, people have wondered for decades: 'could such total incompetence actually have existed throughout all these agencies, OR, was it something else? I do not blame anyone for asking that question. That does not make someone a CT, it makes them rightfully curious.
