Official release - Renowned Researcher John Judge Dies in Washington, DC

John Patrick Judge, assassination researcher

Washington, DC --- John Patrick Judge passed at the age of 66, just as he had lived – with courage in the midst of pain. An internationally acclaimed researcher, writer and speaker, as well as a lifelong anti-militarist anti-racist activist, and community organizer, Judge died on April 15 due to complications from a stroke suffered in early March.

Judge’s primary areas of research were the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as totally unique research which he conducted on-the-ground about the massacre in Jonestown, Guyana.  He is a co-founder of the Coalition on Political Assassinations (COPA), and organized COPA's annual conference in Dallas. 

The 2013 COPA conference drew more than 300 researchers and activists to Dallas on the 50th anniversary of John Kennedy’s death. Amidst the national furor when the feature film "JFK" came out in 1992, Judge was one of the key public proponents behind the creation of the Assassination Records Review Board. One of his last efforts was to press for release of some of the thousands of Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. assassination records still kept classified by the CIA and the FBI.

As co-founder of 9/11 Citizens Watch, Judge also did investigative research on the background and details of the attacks of September 11, 2001.  He worked with family members of the victims to push for a federal investigation and closely monitored the work of the 9/11 Commission.  

Judge was also a co-founder of CHOICES, an organization engaged since 1985 in countering military recruitment in DC area high schools and educating young people about their options with regard to the military. Beginning with the war in Viet Nam, Judge was a life-long anti-war activist and supporter of active-duty soldiers and veterans.   

From 2005 to 2007, Judge served as Special Projects Assistant to Representative Cynthia McKinney of Georgia.  One of his many undertakings in Congress was to advocate on behalf of active-duty soldiers who received harsh sentences for declaring themselves conscientious objectors and others who claimed to have been tortured in military brigs. He helped write the Articles of Impeachment against President George W. Bush which Representative McKinney introduced in December 2006, before leaving office.

At the time of his death, John Judge was working on creation of a Hidden History Museum and Research Center in Washington, DC, to educate a new generation about covert operations, and to support the work of investigative journalists and researchers looking into the National Security State and the rise of secrecy, government plans for extra-Constitutional jurisdiction during emergencies, and threats to civil liberties and international relations. Some of his writings can be found at judgeforyourself.org.  

Acclaimed nationally and internationally for his vast store of historical knowledge, Judge wrote: "Under the evil genius of Allen Dulles, whose espionage attacks on the Soviet Union date back to the 1920's, $200 million in Rockefeller and Mellon funds was directed into the hands of Hitler's spymaster Reinhard Gehlen and his 350 Nazi spies, who formed and founded our Central Intelligence Agency in 1947."
  

An avid public speaker, Judge never spoke about himself but rather, humbly retained a tireless devotion to the search for truth beyond the official government or mainstream media record. Until his final days, Judge was a seeker of truth and justice of the first order. He is irreplaceable in the annals of serious research and documentation.  

John Judge is survived by his long-time companion and life partner, Marilyn Tenenoff and thousands of friends and admirers across the country and around the world. A celebration of his life will be held in late May. In lieu of flowers, tax-deductible donations can be made to support the preservation of Judge's books and archives in a new Museum of Hidden History, P.O. Box 772, Washington, DC, 20044.

There's usually a nasty plot behind what seems so decent.  

It's often greed or selfish hate, in ancient times and recent.  

John Judge's aim is just to find the truth and then to show it.  

So we can change the world by letting all the people know it."  

from a poem by Susan McLucas

The Plan: Murder Mystery Historical Fiction Novel Based on Actual Civil Rights People, Places and Events; JFK Assassination Explored

A young Cleveland McDowell enters the University of Mississippi as the first black law student; later he was kicked out. Students, he said, had chased with with guns. When he carried a firearm to class, out of self protection, he was expelled. He lost a legal bid to reenter. McDowell was a close friend of James Meredith and Medgar Evers. (Photo, U of M files)

Short Summary of The Plan: The tight bond between Clinton and Joe, two gay, black lawyers (one of them, married) is broken when Joe is reportedly found hanged. A suicide seems impossible to Clint, and Joe’s widow is acting cagey. Clinton Moore believes Joe Means was tortured and murdered because of his and Joe’s shared obsession—investigating and fact gathering about civil rights cold case murders and assassinations.

***

The Plan is based on a real event that took place in the Mississippi Delta, where author Susan Klopfer and her psychologist husband lived for two years on the grounds of Parchman Penitentiary, where Fred Klopfer worked.

The former award-winning Missouri news reporter and Prentice Hall book editor, asked around about a murder that had taken place in the Delta—a fact she’d picked up from a new friend.

But all that “Ella’ could say was that “he was a bad man—a gay lawyer. And he was murdered.”

“Of course, I wanted to hear more. I always like a good story. But I had to learn who, what, when, where and why on my own.” 

Klopfer began digging to learn the full story, starting with a telephone call to a local minister’s wife she’d met through a local restaurant owner. “That would be Cleve McDowell, the first black law student to enter Ole Miss. He got kicked out!” the wife told her.

“I quickly learned some of this man’s story, but it took months to put everything together, so that I could make sense of what I’d heard. I had a feeling that I was the first person to uncover the whole story, as much of it that was possible to track. Of course I had to search old records, lie it to a courthouse clerk, and track down several older people who’d known this man. I eventually got a copy of his autopsy and with the help of a physician and forensic researcher, I learned that two shooters were probably involved. I also learned that the autopsy was sloppy and quick. One person went to prison for this murder, but it looked to me as if the person who shot the fatal bullet got away.”

Klopfer believes that she has the only existing copy of McDowell’s autopsy. “The state said it was no longer available, when I asked for a copy.”

Cleve McDowell became the main character—Clinton Moore—in The Plan. “I changed names, dates and locations, moving the story from Drew to Clarksdale, but did not change much else, at least in the beginning of the book. I wanted to remain true to Delta history.”

For instance, The Plan details the murder of a young woman, Jo Etha Collier, who was brutally killed on the night of her high school graduation in Drew. More is written about the murder of Mississippi civil rights icon, Medgar Evers. The Emmett Till lynching is further explored. But the book finally takes a paranormal turn, Klopfer admits.

The writer, who currently resides as an expat in Cuenca, Ecuador, said that she picked up a piece of “interesting Mississippi Delta JFK assassination history” which she weaves into The Plan. “I learned of a Delta man, a private detective named John D. Sullivan, who ended up working in New Orleans with key figures named by well-known JFK assassination conspiracy researchers.” The names, she said, include former FBI agent Guy Banister and pilot David Ferrie, along with Carlos Marcello, boss of the New Orleans crime family.

Sullivan died from a suspicious gun accident at home, after returning to the Delta from the Big Easy. “Even Sullivan’s children said they didn’t believe the story they were told about how their father died. Apparently Sullivan spent a lot of time with a family friend, a well-known judge, after coming home before he died. I would love to see the judge’s notes.”

Klopfer believes that “the real Cleve McDowell” easily would have had contact with Sullivan. “They would not have liked each other. Sullivan was a right-wing, former FBI agent who was a racist for at least most of his professional life. The state’s Sovereignty Commission records attest to this, as do those who gave me interviews. Who knows? Maybe McDowell researched Sullivan’s strange death and got in over his head.”

The Delta attorney, she says, could have learned something about the Kennedy or Dr. Martin Luther King assassination. “Or the Emmett Till lynching. I certainly could not leave out this possibility. He kept in frequent contact with Emmett Till’s mother, working on this cold case for most of his professional life. His office was filled with investigation records when he was killed. Later, many were burned in a dramatic fire,” Klopfer said.

"I learned through all of this that Cleve McDowell was a compassionate man who deserves to be remembered. I want this message to come out of this book. I am surprsed at how difficult it was to find records and stories about him."

The Plan starts in New York City, with a history professor who intends on contacting Moore to congratulate him on his seventy-second birthday. But the professor gets interrupted by the sister of a colleague at Penn State University who disappeared in South America—in the Chilean Andes—in 1985. Trying to assist Boris Weisfeiler’s kin, the professor forgets to call his Mississippi friend.

The Plan moves to the Mississippi Delta. “A murder takes place, and Clinton Moore narrates the rest of the story. It is his journey to find the murderer of his best friend, Joe Means. And his own killer, as well,” Klopfer said.

Klopfer notes that character “Joe Means” is also based on a true person who she believes also was murdered in Montgomery Alabama. “Henry S. Mims was a friend of Cleve McDowell’s. They went to school together. It is said he committed suicide, but after listening to whispers over the phone from a Huntsville law clerk (where he worked), I don’t believe that story, either.”

Mims also was a lawyer who worked on civil rights cold cases in his spare time.

The Plan has a gay subtheme. “The Plan is historical fiction. I took liberties to make it more interesting to readers. But I believe that was not a big stretch to make. I spoke to various friends and scoured the state’s Sovereignty Commission files to make this decision.”

Is a sequel in the works? “Definitely,” Klopfer says.

The Plan, as it moves from the Delta to Ecuador, has a strong link to Chile, where recent trials have taken place over a Chilean and German-run terrorist/torture camp, by the name of Colonia Dignidad.

“Look this up on the Internet. Colonia Dignidad exists,” Klopfer says.

“And it is where the sequel begins.”

Still Need More Proof JFK Assassination a Conspiracy: Video Gives Unique Perspective

What do you think?? Quite fascinating, as far as I'm concerned. sk

JFK Assassination Author, John Beviliqua, Thanks Colleagues For Research Efforts

John Bevilaqua, authorJFK - The Final Solution (Red Scares, White Power and Blue Death)

Let's hear it for the proverbial 'Bull in the China Shop', yours truly, without whose persistence, this entire JFK Conundrum could have gone on for yet another 50 years. And let us thank John Simkin for opening up this thread again at Spartacus because he realized how important the role of Guy Banister actually was in the entire JFK proceedings, not only in New Orleans, but through the Southern US and Latin America. And let us also thank Susan Klopfer, who works with a group of Civil Rights Cold Case volunteers as well. Without her, it might not have become so abundantly clear that among other things, William 'Guy' Banister was first and foremost the private detective of choice for every single pro-Segregation, anti-Semitic, anti-Civil Rights proponent throughout the Southern States touching the Gulf of Mexico. 

She also pointed out that Banister was on the payroll of the Mississippi Sovereignty Commission for Senator James O. Eastland, along with Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker during both the Ole Miss Riots and the Little Rock, Arkansas school desegregation crisis. Recall also that it was Walker who often visited Byron De La Beckwith in prison following the murder of Medgar Evers, Jr. and that it was none other than Jack Ruby who fingered Walker in his Warren Commission testimony. 

And how long was it the Banister's role in the Anti-Communist League of the Caribbean was totally ignored, almost deliberately, 40+ years, perhaps? And how many of you knew that Banister played a role with E. H. Hunt in the 1954 Guatamala coup of Arbenz run with 'Rip' Robertston and Allen Dulles, along with his United Fruit Company client which was less than a mile from his offices on Lafayette Street on St. Charles? Not many, I would venture to say. 

And when the information about 'Operation Red Cross', also run by Senators Eastland and Goldwater, and NOT the CIA was painstakingly extracted from Nathaniel Weyl, how many of you said: "Wow, everyone always said that one of the main keys to the understanding of the sponsors of the JFK hit was 'Operation Red Cross', now that we know it was done by SISS, under the auspices of Senator James Eastland from Mississippi who was on Draper's payroll, for the benefit of Senator Barry Goldwater from YAF and organized by Robert Morris from SISS and The China Lobby, who was the real force behind McCarthyism, this puts the entire JFK Assassination in a much clearer, brighter light!" No one besides me. 

Why does it take a Civil Rights Activist to bring us all back to our senses to realize that the JFK murder and the other 3 acts of violence done between the Summer of 1963 and the Summer of 1964 were all done by the SAME forces, paid for by the SAME person, Wickliffe Draper, for the SAME reasons using the power behind Senator James O. Eastland, the Senator from The Pioneer Fund? 

Even Jackie Kennedy said something to the effect: "What a shame that he had to die at the hands of a little nobody like Oswald instead of at least for a more nobler cause like 'The Civil Rights Movement'."

Looks like Jackie was right after all, and it looks like those like Bill Baggs, Editor of The Miami News whom I had the privilege to work for at the age of 16, and Ralph McGill, Editor of the Atlanta Constitution were also right when they said the JFK murder was first and foremost perpetrated by those in the Civil Rights movement for their own sinister purposes.

Sure, it also served the purposes of the Viet Nam lobby, the MIC, the anti-Semites, the anti-Papists, the anti-Catholics, but who actually represented ALL of these interests and was in a position to reach deep down into his pockets and deep down into his hierarchy of KKK stormtroopers and the Gestapo of the Southern Civil Rights opponents? 

Only Wickliffe Preston Draper, using Senator James O. Eastland from the MSC, the KKK and the Draper Genetics Committee and Robert J. Morris whose history included Rapp-Coudert, McCarranism, The China Lobby, the Liberty Lobby, McCarthyism, MacArthurism and then SISS with Eastland as well. Trust me, without my contributions, Robert Morris, Charles Willoughby, Wickliffe Draper, Edwin Walker and even James Eastland and Guy Banister would have gone totally scot free. And both Army Intel and ONI would have gotten off clean as a whistle, too.

"I'm sorry" -- Former KKK Supporter Elwin Wilson Says Before He Dies

KKK Doesn't Go Away

Who's sorry now?

Elwin Wilson has died at the age of 76, leaving behind a legacy of a man who was able to admit the error of his ways. Wilson was formerly a supporter of the Ku Klux Klan, which is frequently misspelled as Klu Klux Klan. During his affiliation with the KKK, he participated in hate crimes which haunted him in his later life, so he bravely decided to apologize, according to a March 31, 2013 report by The Huffington Post.

After a lifetime that included burning crosses and assaulting African Americans, Wilson finally found peace in forgiveness. After President Barack Obama's inauguration in 2009, he decided to apologize for his many hateful indiscretions, which included the 1961 beating of U.S. Rep. John Lewis at a Rock Hill bus station.

Elwin Wilson dies with a clear conscience and the blessing of forgiveness from the very man he assaulted on that day 50 years earlier. In 2009, Wilson offered Lewis an apology for the brutal beating, and Lewis graciously accepted. As a result, both men were honored on Worldwide Forgiveness Day later that year, and both men received the Common Ground Award for Reconciliation in Canada. Wilson even had the opportunity to honor his victim with an award in Maryland.

50th Anniversary of JFK Assassination: Author of The Plan: A Novel Speaks Out On Assassination Conspiracies, Oswald, Eastland, Banister

"On the assassination of John F. Kennedy? The American media failed us. They were compromised, frightened, incompetent, greedy (pick one or all) and still fight to keep us from learning the truth -- because they screwed up. Check out what journalists around the world have reported over the years. Only American journalists keep pumping up the Oswald lone nut story. I think they've simply given up on digging up the facts and telling the story. Citizens will find truth when listening to people like Mark Lane. ('Anyone who believes the Warren Commission, hasn't read the report.' Mark Lane, attorney  and my hero)." Susan Klopfer, author (The Plan: A Novel. Set for release: May 2013)

By Susan Klopfer
Author, The Plan

On Friday November 22, 1963, news bulletins hit the airwaves as rifle shots interrupted President John F. Kennedy's Dallas motorcade. While conspiracy theorists and others have kept the debate alive over what happened fifty years ago, who was involved, and why, no one ever mentions Mississippi's links.

As a journalist and writer, I became even more intrigued with the JFK assassination when coming across information linking a Mississippi icon to several people often associated with the tragic event.

Seven years before JFK was assassinated, the magnolia state's Sen. James O. Eastland met for the first time with Guy Banister, a controversial CIA operative and retired FBI agent in charge of the Chicago bureau.

"Banister was later linked to Lee Harvey Oswald and Mississippi's senator through involvement with Eastland's Senate Internal Security Subcommittee or SISS (sometimes called "SISSY").

I bumped into this strange fact when doing research for my books  Where Rebels Roost, Mississippi Civil Rights Revisited, Who Killed Emmett Till? and  The Emmett Till Book.

Mississippi and JFK’s assassination?

The "New Orleans Times-Picayune" on March 23, 1956, reported that Robert Morrison, a former chief counsel for Sen. Joseph McCarthy's House Unamerican Activities Committee or HUAC, and Banister traveled to Greenwood, Mississippi, to confer personally with Senator Eastland for more than three hours.

Describing the conference as "completely satisfactory," Morrison told the reporter that "Mr. Banister has complete liaison with the committee's staff which was the main object of our trip."

Apparently cozying up to Eastland and "SISSY" was Banister's goal. And it looks like it worked. Who would NOT have wanted others to know of this relationship? Think about it.

Known as a notorious political extremist who was later described as the impetus for James Garrison’s 1967-1970 Kennedy assassination probe, Banister earlier became a brief focus of Mississippi's secret spy agency, the Sovereignty Commission, when it was suggested Banister should be hired to set up an 'even tighter' domestic spying system throughout the state.

It has also been suggested that this detective was used by the Mississippi Sovereignty Comission in several of Mississippi’s “affairs” including the near ambush of James Meredith when as the first black American he entered the segregated  University of Mississippi in the fall of 1962.

A second Eastland operative, private investigator John D. Sullivan of Vicksburg, suggested hiring Banister to the Commission just months after the JFK assassination, as reported in released Sovereignty Commission records.

Mississippi Detective 'Kills Himself' -- After Working For Guy Banister

Former FBI agent Sullivan had worked under Banister (both inside the FBI and privately) and as a private self-employed investigator who often did work for hire for the Commission as well as for the private white Citizens Councils, of which he was an active member; and for SISS, as had Banister and Lee Harvey Oswald.

When Sullivan reportedly committed suicide following the Kennedy assassination, Sovereignty Commission investigators tried to acquire his library and files, but most of his confidential files were either reportedly burned by his widow or they had been lent out, and she 'could not remember' who had them, Sovereignty Commission files disclose.

Sullivan died when he was cleaning his rifle while sitting on the edge of his bed. He accidentay shot himself in the groin and bled to death after a hunting accident. This happened in the same year that David Ferrie, a potential and important witness in the Garrison trial against Clay Shaw took place -- before the trial. A family member told me that he’d confided he was in over his head while working in New Orleans for Banister – and that he’d been talking to a local judge about what he knew that scared him. The judge is now deceased.

Some twenty-nine years later, in testimony before the Kennedy Assassination Records Review Board during a Dallas hearing on November 18, 1994, the late Senator Eastland was directly implicated in the president’s assassination by one of the author/theorists invited to testify.

Lee Harvey Oswald Worked For Senator James O. Eastland's Security Committee

Lee Harvey Oswald was quite possibly an agent of the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee and he was doing the bidding of [Sen. Thomas J.] Dodd and Eastland and Morrison, author John McLaughlin swore.

It’s a shame the University of Mississippi was given Eastland’s files, and that officials allowed a friend of Eastland to scrub these files clean before release to researchers.

Still, documentation that could support or even discredit such assertions could be present in the Eastland archives kept at the University of Mississippi, but until very recently no objective scholar was allowed to search these archives since the day they arrived on campus.

Instead, Eastland's records were managed for years by a former associate and devotee who followed the papers from Washington, D.C. to Oxford where he kept an office in the law school.

University of Mississippi Scrubs Eastland Records; Dean tosses FOIA into Waste Can

Finally in 2005, after my unsuccessful Freedom of Information Act or FOIA request to the dean of the law school,  a historian was hired to organize the archives based in the James O. Eastland School of Law at Ole Miss. But there was still be a lengthy waiting period before any of the files could be viewed.

The plan was to release first all press releases, according to one Ole Miss historian who also told me that many important files were probably missing -- that the files looked 'cleaned out'.

When I presented the Dean of the University of Mississippi School of Law (unofficially the James O. Eastland School of Law – they just never got brave enough to make this official), a freedom of information act request or FOIA for access to Eastland archives, he asked, while laughing, if he could “just show the rejection letter written to the last person who asked for this information."

Then he wadded up the FOIA and threw it ito his waste basket! Later, it came back to me that “people at Ole Miss were really angry” over the FOIA request.

Enter Wickliffe Draper, Eugenicist, Friend of Big Jim Eastland

All I can say is, it’s been quite a journey seeking the truth on what happened to President John F. Kennedy – and why. Plus -- I haven't even gotten started on what I think about Wickliffe Draper and his involvement -- I'm saving it for my book!

New Book Announcement: The Plan: An eNovel

The Plan: A Historical eNovel By Susan Klopfer 

Set For June 2013 Release

From a church in the Mississippi Delta...

To Esmeraldas Ecuador

The Plot:

Jamie Sullivan, a private Vicksburg detective, fatally shoots himself in the groin while perched on the corner of his bed cleaning his favorite hunting rifle. Suicide, concludes the Mississippi state pathologist, a man nationally known for his amazingly quick (and frequently galling) reports. Sullivan’s death occurs six months after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and twenty-five years before Clint McDoo gives a damn. 

McDoo, a quiet, gay Delta civil rights lawyer, has never thought about the former FBI agent’s fishy death report until  now; he hated the man. But hearing of his Alabama colleague's sudden death, McDoo sets Delta speed records heading for Montgomery where his friend’s widow insists her husband killed himself, and will not let McDoo view the body. She demands a closed casket funeral, but McDoo, adept at quiet murder investigations from years of brave work in Mississippi, sneaks into the funeral parlor basement to find his friend’s tortured body. 

Not surprised at what he discovers, and figuring he could be the next target because they were co-investigating a colossal crime, McDoo flees to a quiet fishing town in Ecuador, a little known village with relevant African history, to spend out the rest of his life. He meets retired CIA expat, Barney Fry, who faces possible deportation over a CIA retirement office paperwork screw-up. The intrigued old spy fleshes out the lawyer’s story and comes up with an idea that just might save them both, and solve two murders!

Gary Revel, looks into RFK assassination

RED POLKA DOT DRESS-RFK Assassination Screenplay Research Gains Momentum with Nina Rhodes-Hughes CNN Interview

"What has to come out is that there was another shooter to my right," Rhodes-Hughes said in an exclusive interview with CNN. "The truth has got to be told. No more cover-ups."

Her statement that Sirhan was not the only gunman shooting at Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy confirms the many reports and investigative work by Gary Revel into the killing.

Frank Burmaster is researching and co-writing the screenplay now. He has completed 28 screenplays and has a zombie film in development. "Zombie Warriors", is to be filmed by StewArt Productions/Biblical Films. He also has a TV pilot in development, "Last Hope", with Stuart Sabin at It's a Living Productions. He just finished co-writing an action/thriller, "Sons of the Fallen", with producer Robert Hammond, and is currently co-writing two thrillers, "Thorn", and "Thorn 2" with producer Pamala Hall. He is also due to begin work on another TV Pilot, "The Discovery Process".

Revel is the owner of the Jongleur group of companies that includes Jongleur Music, Jongleur Music Book Publishing and Jongleur Music Pictures. Jongleur Music is also partnered with Robert McDaris in the Riant Records label. The companies produce and distribute music, publish books and have over 20 motion pictures in development. He is the creator of the 'Dream Killers' project that is working to bring 3 major motion pictures to theaters around the world that will finally provide the truth of the assassinations of JFK, MLK and RFK in 3 entertaining and inspirational motion pictures. The movies will be based primarily on the facts that Gary found during his investigation of the assassinations that began when he entered into the MLK assassination enquiry of the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1977. He will bring new understanding to the historical perspective of the events due to his exclusive and independent work and findings in 1977.

Revel recently finished the screenplays; JFK: The Real Story, written by Revel and co-writers Robert Burnside and Ambyr Davis as well as Golf Gods, adapted from the book by David Green and written by Revel and David. His story of his investigation of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. is optioned by William Sachs and the screenplay, MLK - written by Sachs - is the subject of negotiations with producers in Hollywood.

Al Navis has joined with Gary and Frank to help provide an extra indepth view as the ‘Consulting Historian’ to the endeavor. Navis has been lecturing on the JFK assassination since 1974. He is a writer, radio personality, book store owner and expert on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

BLACK MAN IN THE CIA Finds Atrocities in LAPD Handling of RFK Assassination Case

Entertainment News

Robert F. Kennedy; assassinated presidential candidate, focus of new film

It was in 2006 that Leutrell Osborne Sr. first ran across a press release about the MLK assassination by Gary Revel on the internet. The more he read the more irritated he became that Gary was blaming everybody it seemed; Mafia, FBI, CIA, even the Memphis Police and Fire Department Director for having some involvement in the killing. He made a mental note that it was just another wacky 'conspiracy theory' and went on with his life.

Days later he happened to be talking with an old friend, Congressman Walter Fauntroy, and heard some of the same types of conclusions. The curtain he had drawn in his mind against the ideas was pulled back. He went back to the internet and googled, 'Gary Revel'. There was more than enough to keep him busy for a few days. He studied the statements and conclusions. After a few days he realized that they were not the tyical 'conspiray theory' offerings. Rather they were facts drawn from real evidence Revel had found during his own MLK assassination investigation in 1977 as he had worked independently but in association with the House Select Committee on Assassinations.

He contacted Gary and offered to help him further the quest to find and expose all the facts of the case so that the world would finally know what Gary knew. The world would finally know the truth that James Earl Ray did not kill MLK.

Gary accepted his offer and days turned into weeks, weeks into months and months into years. One lead led to another and Leutrell began to see the link between the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. This had been another 'wacky idea' from Gary, at first. However, it became clear that it was true, there is a connection. Then RFK? No, Leutrell did not want to go there. Sirhan Sirhan was still alive and in prison for the crime, surely the State of California would not be so bold to continue holding an innocent man for such an infamous crime.

Gary offered evidence again and Leutrell was shocked.  The atrocities by the LAPD in the investigation of the assassination of Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy were blatant; destruction of evidence, bullying witnesses into changing their statements and not following up on vital leads were not the marks of any true investigation into any crime.

When Leutrell learned that Gary and Frank Burmaster had started writing a screenplay about the assassination he offered his help again. JFK Assassination Expert Al Navis is attached as 'Consulting Historian'. Leutrell attached as a 'Research Technical Consultant' for the screenplay. Leutrell knows he can help due to his extensive knowledge of Counterintelligence, Black Operations, COINTEL PRO (the FBI's Counter Intelligence Program), Covert Action and other relative matters that now clearly relate to the crime. The atrocities of the assassination and the following corrupted investigation must be brought to the world even it takes a motion picture to finally spell it all out.

Leutrell M. Osborne Sr. is the author of 'Black Man in the CIA'. He is a 26 year career Case Officer for the Central Intelligence Agency and is a 'Research Technical Consultant' for the screenplay being written by Frank Burmaster and Gary Revel, working title, 'Red Polka Dot Dress'.

Gary Revel is a Special Investigator of the assassination of Martin Luther King JR. whose work on that case led him to find links to those responsible for the assassinations of JFK, MLK and RFK.

Frank Burmaster has written 28 screenplays and has a zombie film in development. "Zombie Warriors", is to be filmed by StewArt Productions/Biblical Films. He also has a TV pilot in development, "Last Hope", with Stuart Sabin at It's a Living Productions. He just finished co-writing an action/thriller, "Sons of the Fallen", with producer Robert Hammond, and is currently co-writing two thrillers, "Thorn", and "Thorn 2" with producer Pamala Hall. He is also due to begin work on another TV Pilot, "The Discovery Process".

Al Navis is a writer, radio personality, book store owner and expert on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Robert F. Kennedy Assassination Film On The Way

Polka Dots and the Assassination of Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy

Entertainment News

To Be Released: April 16, 2012

Special Investigator Gary Revel reflects on the polka dots and the RFK assassination as he pursues making a movie to expose the deadly killers behind the killing.

Gary Revel

(Temple, Texas) -- The year was 1977 and by the time three people (an associate, a brother and the husband of a cousin-with whom I had at least some discussion of my work investigating the Martin Luther King Jr. assassination were murdered) I was starting to make connections beyond MLK. Links began to surface that led to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the Civil Rights Leader.

It was after the attacks on me and my family became too great to bear that I decided to end my investigation. This was in the early part of 1978 and I was living in Nashville, Tennessee where I had based my investigation of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.

A few months after making this decision I was sitting in the law office of my business associate, James Earl Ray attorney Jack Kershaw. I got a phone call from someone who said he was a friend of a woman who knew something about the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy and thought it had something to do with his brother‘s assassination as well (JFK). I told the caller that I was no longer investigating the King killing and wasn’t interested in pursuing neither Robert’s assassination nor JFK’s.

The caller was not relieved by this and continued to explain that his friend had seen a lady in a polka dot dress run from the Ambassador Hotel with a male friend saying that they had killed Kennedy.

I really didn’t want to hear this. My faith in any kind of real justice in the United States had been completely destroyed by my experiences of the past year. However, just as I had been compelled to delve into the underbelly of the MLK and JFK assassinations, I again felt the grip of hunger for justice.

I continued to listen and asked a few questions and once off the phone began to make some calls myself.

I learned that there had been several people who had seen a lady in a polka dot dress in and around the Ambassador Hotel that night. More than one had seen her in the company of Sirhan Sirhan.

One turned out to be the woman my caller had told me about, Sandra Serrano. She had been sitting on the steps that led down from the Ambassador Hotel Ballroom where RFK had just made his victory speech when the polka dot dress lady ran past her claiming, ‘We shot Kennedy’.

Another was a policeman, Sergeant Paul Sharaga, who saw the polka dot dress lady shortly after in the parking lot saying the same thing.

A third was Vincent DiPierro. He was working as a waiter in the hotel and saw the polka dot dress lady with Sirhan. She and Sirhan seemed quite cozy and was the recipient of a whisper from Sirhan. According to Vincent, soon after, Sirhan saw Robert Kennedy coming into the hallway and quickly moved forward taking a pistol out and began shooting.

I learned that more shots were fired than would have been possible if they had all come from Sirhan’s pistol. Then I learned of the destruction of evidence by the LAPD and other details that were very disturbing.

This kind of knowledge has come to me steadily, layer after layer, building a firm foundation and structure of truth about the assassination of RFK that isn’t found in the official court records that have kept Sirhan Sirhan in prison for 44 years.

It is because of this and other factors that I must go forward and make every effort to make a movie that will provide a perspective of truth, as I see it, beyond what is found in the official history of the killing of Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy.

So I have entered into an agreement with Frank Burmaster to co-write a screenplay about the assassination. We have accepted offers from JFK Assassination Expert, Al Navis and former CIA Case Officer, Leutrell (Mike) Osborne Sr. (author of Black Man in the CIA) to consult on research for the screenplay.

This is not an undertaking taken lightly I assure you. The pain and suffering that these matters have caused me over the years is more than enough for a lifetime, still I am compelled to continue.
