Part 23, PACIFICA RADIO Investigates the Murder of President Kennedy
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GARY NULL:
Alright.  Do you believe that the shots came just from the Book
Depository, or from the Grassy Knoll, or from where?

DR. CHARLES CRENSHAW:
I cannot say that, but he WAS shot twice from the front. And I
assume, also, that he was shot from the back. So there could not
have been just one shooter; that is, Oswald. We spent all of the
next week from the 22nd to the 29th [of Nov. `63], trying to figure 
out (as we had been told the official version: that it was Oswald)
how in the world the President could have been shot from the
front when Oswald was supposedly the lone shooter. And on
December the 5th of that year, it was the same way with the
Secret Service. They reenacted the assassination, and it was
their ability there, trying to show how he was shot from the
front, yet being shot from the School Book Depository. It was a
question in everyone's mind.

GARY NULL:
We know that there was one bullet that missed the bodies of both
Kennedy and Connally completely, because it ricocheted off of the
cement. There is absolute evidence of that. The ricochet struck
one of the people standing right on the curb. That meant that
there had to have been four bullets shot, at minimum. We know
then of three. There is an estimate of six. There were acoustical
recordings showing six shots. So even if we assume that there
were four, the Warren Commission claims that there were not four.

DR. CRENSHAW:
Yes.

GARY NULL:
Now, how in the world is it possible for one shooter, from the
Book Depository, firing at a moving target, to get off four
rounds in what would have to have been under approximately
four-point-eight seconds. And even extending it to six seconds,
it's not humanly possible. No one has ever been able to duplicate
that.

DR. CRENSHAW:
No.  And I don't think they ever will be. And one other thing. 
I also took care of, post-operatively, Governor Connally. And
Connally and Mrs. Connally (Nellie) have always stated that he
was not hit by the same bullet that the President was hit by. He
stated that post-operatively, and he has also stated it recently.

GARY NULL:
Alright.  The Secret Service's refusal, against [Parkland]
Hospital policy and Texas law, to allow an autopsy to be
performed on JFK, and the swift removal of the President's body
from the hospital to Air Force One and back to Washington, D.C. ....
Give us your insights on that, please.

DR. CRENSHAW:
Well, you know, this is the reason. I was a junior resident,
staying there preparing the President's body along while the
nurses were preparing him. But I would stay there because this is
just a law, and we MUST have a chain of evidence if we were going
to prosecute whoever had shot the President.

Then, all of a sudden, there was such a hubbub with the Secret
Service. They would not have the autopsy performed there, even
though our forensic pathologist, Dr. Earl Rose, had told them, in
no uncertain terms, that this had to be. So they asked the
administrator to get a justice of the peace. A very young,
uneducated justice of the peace came there. And he even talked
with the district attorney and the chief of police, and he was
told that he should at least have an autopsy or a bullet.
However, he chose to go along with the Secret Service and sign
the death certificate. Also, in so doing, he checked the inquest
that was performed. That was merely his walking at the head of
the room, looking in. And also, he checked that an autopsy was 
performed. And I can assure you, there was no autopsy performed
there.

Then, at Mrs. Kennedy's request and [that of] the Secret Service,
the coffin was brought in, and it is the one that is described.
It was the large bronze coffin. And there, we put a
rubberized sheet there, and a clear plastic mattress cover over
that to keep the blood from getting into the satin. He had,
initially, towels around the head, but he had bled through that,
and Mr. O'Neill, of the O'Neill Funeral Home, put several
rubberized sacks (we had no good plastic then), and then we
placed him in the coffin. After, again, I looked at the head
wound and placed a sheet over the President, with his clothes at
the bottom. And there was no body bag at Parkland. He had just a
sheet over there. And the coffin was the bronze one that all the
pictures were made [taken of] at Andrews Air Force Base.

GARY NULL: 
Isn't it rather unusual that a Dr. Boswell would state that he is
now removing head bandages?  What is the significance of that
statement?

DR. CRENSHAW:
I do not know.  Boswell is also the one who has said, of course,
that the tracheostomy was almost three inches long. And it was not 
that [length] when it left Parkland. But he did have those rubberized
sacks over his head. This is the only thing that I could have
thought: that maybe they thought it was a body bag. But there was
NO body bag.

GARY NULL:
Okay.  I'm going to go now to Paul O'Connor.
Mr. O'Connor, are you on the line?

PAUL O'CONNOR:
Yes sir.

GARY NULL:
And Dr. Michio Kaku, are you on the line?

MICHIO KAKU:
I'm on the line.

GARY NULL:
Okay.  We're going to come to both of you in just a second, but I
want to follow this train of thought:
Lyndon Johnson's direct order to YOU, Dr. Crenshaw, to obtain a
deathbed confession from Lee Harvey Oswald during an emergency
surgery to save his life ....

DR. CRENSHAW:
Yes, this was on that Sunday. Obviously, we did not watch the TV.
And the head administrator of Parkland called for a free
operating team to come to the emergency room. We went there. 
We were told that Oswald was coming in. At least we were
prepared. So immediately, in seven-and-a-half minutes, we got
Oswald up to the operating room, and operated on him on the cart.
We didn't even place him on an operating table.

After all of the attending staff .... some even at home had seen 
this [the shooting on TV] .... they immediately came. And Dr. Perry
initially started the operation. I was an assistant there. So
when all of the attending staff arrived, I scrubbed out, was
standing there, and looked at this funny looking gentleman over
there on the left side. But, of course, Parkland was so wild
then. People were in every corner there. This man looked like the
comedian, Oliver Hardy, in a small scrub suit. He did have a
badge out of his front pocket, and a very large gun out of the
back pocket. And I thought: Well gee, it's just something weird
again at Parkland. The nurse tapped me on the shoulder then and
asked me if I would take the phone call. I went to the operating
room supervisor's office, picked up the phone, and there, a voice
like thunder said: "This is the President, Lyndon B. Johnson. 
How is the accused assassin doing?"  And I said: "Well, he's
critical. He's lost a lot of blood, but he is holding his own."
He said: "Would you take a message to the chief operating surgeon?"
And I said, obviously: "Yes sir."  He said: "There is
a man in the room, and I want him to take a deathbed confession
as soon as possible." 
                      (to be continued)

     If I can arm you with the vital truth that will awaken you to
     the realization that this power elite was able to terrorize the
     People of the United States by scattering our president's 
     brains onto the streets of one of our cities, when they 
     could have less flagrantly induced a fatal disease in him .... 
     If I can give you the mass-media-concealed information that you
     need to understand that they had to blow out the brains of 
     President Kennedy in full view of the American People in order
     to instill fear and despair in the People of the United States.
     Our shadow rulers' murder of President Kennedy enabled them 
     to slaughter fifty-eight thousand young Americans of my
     generation and to slaughter two million Vietnamese people ....
     If I can arm you with these realizations, then my efforts will
     have been partially successful.

If we seriously listen to this "God within us" ["conscience",
if you will], we usually find ourselves being urged to take the
more difficult path, the path of more effort rather than less.
.... Each and every one of us, more or less frequently, will hold
back from this work. .... Like every one of our ancestors before
us, we are all lazy. So original sin does exist; it is our laziness.
