The last 2 to 3 years I have studied the events seriously and avidly (and lurked reading some great theories and postings on these boards). So you are no novice anymore, that's really a long time and shows great endurance and political sensibility!

From reading this site and purchasing the James Files book and dvd's this took me seriously onto the major background from the Mafia and CIA connection, and how it unfolded. Me, too.

AnthonyAthletic wrote: What were the tramps doing? I don't know. I don't know for sure, too, but I think speculating+research+correspondance is a legitmate and necessary act.AnthonyAthletic wrote: The reason to sit in the box car and hide away is all too strange. Maybe they were not quite sure, how thorougly the police will search after the shooting and hoped to be not detected. But if it is really true, that they just sat in the railroad car and waited for more than an hour, then it is obvious to me, that they wanted to be detected and that means they were ordered to do so and not run away earlier and that means that they had a diversion-from-the-real-shooters-function. Probably they supervised the parking lot area, the getaway of the shooters and hid the rifle of Marshall Caifano. They had some worst-case-scenario-function, why else were they placed there? That's just highly plausible to me. I can't prove it. AnthonyAthletic wrote: Surely if Holt is/was one of the tramps, why such amazement when the horrific action started outside??? Holt was physically shocked when realization hit home, possibly hiding through panic, surely nobody would be that gullable or that left in the dark ie (Sit in a box car at 12:25pm the day the President rides through the district, and not know what is going on). I can see where that would be a shock to the system. A mafia and CIA collaborator like Holt definitely knew in advance, that he was not ordered to Dealey Plaza, just because JFK needs more bystanders on the pedestrian to wave at him. AnthonyAthletic wrote: We know it has been claimed that Harrelson, Rogers and Chauncey Holt were the three tramps arrested in Dealey Plaza on 22nd November, 1963, if this is the case I wonder why that it was not until 1992 that the Dallas Police Department revealed that the three tramps were Gus Abrams, John F. Gedney and Harold Doyle? Doesn't 29 years after the event seems a tad late to issue a denial/cover story. Obviously the DPD still feared that further investigations in the JFK-case will throw a not so pleasant light on them. AnthonyAthletic wrote: Then again, we may read too much into the 3 Tramps story. (something which I haven't looked into too much). I would say, the main problem with the research about this is the non-communication with real potential assassins, conspirators and patsies nowadays. AnthonyAthletic wrote: Maybe it was just that simple when they were simply "let go"? If the tramps really had explosives in the railroad car and were no real railroad workers then just let them go is against law and a big failure of the police. If this action showes off illegal collaboration between police, CIA, FBI and mafia, then this act "let go" is in no way simple anymore. Chris
