Jack and Lee 10
You see, my bosses didn’t like John Kennedy’s vision. I’m sure there was a little jealousy of JFK – after all he was good looking and they were not – but primarily it was a business decision. They just didn’t like his vision. And after the Cuban missile crisis, and JFK’s “No Invasion” policy of…

I am an organized man, but I am also a brooding and lonely man. I love humanity, and I hate humanity. I am normal, and yet I am not normal. I can fit in, and yet I cannot fit in. There are two people living with in me – a product of a disrupted childhood.…

I love 1963. I don’t like the modern world. 1963 was fun. Life was simple in 1963. America was happy. Sure, we had problems. There are always going to be problems. Wars? Of course there were wars. Man will never be at peace. Are animals at peace? War is the natural status of man.…

Was it moral to kill these guys, these two investigative reporters – Hunter and Koethe? Maybe not. I don’t set the objectives. My job is to achieve them. If I were king of the world, we would not act immorally in an order to achieve our ends. We live in an immoral world. Yes, the…

I screwed up. I must be a man and admit my weaknesses. I involved too many people in killing Lee. Humans are your biggest assets and your biggest variables. You need people, but, man, they don’t always get the big picture. Nor can they. If they did, they’d know too much. I needed George to…

I worked harder on killing Lee than I did on the JFK and Tippit killing combined. Not really, but it seemed like I did. I guess it seemed more difficult because I had to connive it at the last moment. Connive it, ha ha. I love the way Dean talks. That would be Dean Andrews.…

Every step of the way in this caper has to be thought out and questioned assiduously. I have to think ten ways at once. It’s a giant Sudoku puzzle, baby. What are the ramifications of each decision? Assiduously. Assidus. Asidere. Ad-sidere. Ad means next to. Sidere means to sit. Assiduously means to sit next to.…

One of the problems I had in planning this assassination was my minimal brain dysfunction. It takes me a long time to get things done. I am very easily distracted. Now, you would think this would disqualify me for planning an assassination, but it doesn’t. You see, you have to take the good with the…

I liked Jack Ruby. I really did. He was a funny guy, not because he tried to be funny, but because he was – just by being himself. Jack was passionate too. I love passion in people. When you see passion in people it’s because there’s a hurting person in there. People are fragile. …

I was there in the Dallas Municipal Building that Friday night. Yep, I was there, and if you look hard enough through the pictures you’ll find me. After meeting with Jack that Friday evening, we drove down to the police building. Even if Jack had been stopped at the door, I had the clout to…
