Ep 58: Oswald Impersonations, Fall 1963

Over the course of this season 2 of Solving JFK, a recurring theme that we’ve seen is the impersonation of Lee Harvey Oswald. It’s one thing for a witness to say that they saw a guy who they thought looked identical to Oswald when we know that Oswald could not have been there.Witnesses are often incorrect about recollections of what they saw, especially what someone looked like.  But, that’s not the situation for the impersonations of Oswald that we’ve seen so far. In many cases, the witnesses said that the man they identified as Oswald provided extra details to make it clear that, if he wasn’t really Oswald, he was trying to make people think that he was. When we talk about Oswald impersonations, what we mean is people believing the man they saw looked like Oswald combined with some unique identifying fact consistent with Oswald’s life, like, for example, an ID card, his service in the Marines, or his time in the Soviet Union.In this episode, we look at the many impersonations of Oswald in the Fall of 1963. Is there enough evidence to conclude that Lee Harvey Oswald was being impersonated? And if there is, what are the implications?Twitter - https://twitter.com/solvingjfk Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/solvingjfk Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/solvingjfkpodcast Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@solvingjfk Transcripts and Sources - https://www.solvingjfkpodcast.com
