A heartfelt thankyou and Christmas and holiday message to all of our listeners from your podcast host Jeff Crudele.

Lee Harvey Oswald's trip to Mexico is one of the most mysterious aspects of the JFK assassination case, and some say it holds the key to understanding what really happened and who was actually involved. Today's episode Part 7 is the seventh episode in this miniseries. In Part 7 we pick the action up as Oswald has checked into  the hotel in Mexico and now heads immediately to the Cuban Consulate in search of a transit visa. We follow Oswald on Friday's odyssey, including  three visits to the Cuban Consulate and one visit to the Soviet Embassy.  Oswald's efforts to obtain a transit visa that would allow him to travel to Cuba are ultimately thwarted that day,  and some of the most important events of his visit happen on Friday including his only known and verifiable interaction with Silvia Duran. And some of the confounding questions begin to arise as well, on whether it was  the authentic Oswald (or not) that visited the Cuban Consulate and the Soviet Embassy.  And what to make of the phone calls to the Soviet Embassy in the minutes after his arrival in Mexico City. Calls that seem difficult for him to have made and that clearly don't seem to be Oswald, because they were spoken in Spanish, a language he could not speak. And luck would have it that his four visits that day, three to the Cuban Consulate and one to the Soviet Embassy, all escaped the America surveillance cameras with no photographs either taken or surviving for posterity. Was that accomplished  for the reasons explained by the CIA, or was it done deliberately for another reason?

We're  exploring aspect of the Mexico City story that ultimately impacted what the government decided that  it could not reveal and highlight  about Mexico City at that moment...now just beginning to  explore the curious role of the CIA and its involvement in the  Mexico City affair.....and the plume of suspicions that Mexico creates for the CIA... Come join us as we take you through an entire mini-series of episodes that explore what we know and we don't know about Oswald and his trip to  Mexico City. We will take you from the moment he left New Orleans and traveled to Mexico City, through  his time there and his return to the United States.. That is...if he even went at all..to Mexico ....or rather if he was not the only Oswald who was in Mexico in late September and early October. The plot thickens almost immediately. The evidence in this part of the case is confounding and it may be one of the toughest assignments yet for all of us, including  you, the jury, to sort through it all. Come join us as we review one of the most fascinating story tells regarding the JFK assassination, and as we borrow heavily from so many great researchers including the work of Jefferson Morley who wrote Our Man In Mexico and John Armstrong who wrote Harvey and Lee, two of the most detailed and spellbinding books every written on the JFK assassination. Others as well contribute to the richness of our investigation into what happened...really...in Mexico City....

Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

My apologies, but we had to revise Episode 238 for a significant addition of material from the Warren Commission Report that was inadvertently omitted when the episode was originally posted. The new version 238 is now available. Please delete your old copy and replace it with a new download of episode 238. 

Some changes are necessary as well for episodes 239 through 241. These three episodes  have been temporarily taken off line. They will be available again in their revised edition in just a few days. Once you receive notice that the revised editions of episodes 239 through 241 are available, please delete your old copies and replace them with the new versions. If you have not yet listened to these episodes, I would pause until these corrections are completed. 

Thanks again for your patience as we make these corrections.
