Mary Ferrell, who died in 2004, devoted her life to assembling thousands of documents, newspaper clippings and books related to the assassination. She came to suspect the US government was involved…
for intelligence purposes three months before Kennedy’s death, according to a report.
Ferrell holds up a photo transparency purporting to show Lee Harvey Oswald with both a pistol and a rifle.“I knew about Mary because she was thanked in the acknowledgments of all the books I read about the assassination,” said Oliver Curme, who started the foundation in 2002. “When I met her she was living in a one-story shot-gun house packed to the ceiling with books and papers at a time when an arsonist had been lighting fires in her neighborhood.
But she was still seeking answers to the assassination, although she was never able to find “the smoking gun” evidence of who Oswald might have working for, or why the US government might have been covering up the assassination, Curme said.He said that Farrell showed him several versions of one particular document relating to testimony Marina Oswald gave the Warren Commission about the rifle her husband used to shoot Kennedy.
In another instance, researchers were able to track down a transcript of the conversation that Kennedy’s vice president Lyndon Johnson had with J. Edgar Hoover, the head of the CIA, the day after the assassination. The call had been recorded, but when researchers tried to access the audio recording at the LBJ Library in Austin, they found that the 18-minute tape had been erased, Curme said.
