Succes 2010: James Leavelle

James R. Leavelle (born August 23, 1920) is the former Dallas, Texas homicide detective who was escorting Lee Harvey Oswald through the basement of Dallas Police headquarters when Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby.
Another view of Ruby's shooting of Oswald, from the Warren Commission report.

In a 2006 interview Leavelle, who was the first to interrogate Oswald after his arrest, recalled joking to Oswald before the transfer, " 'Lee, if anybody shoots at you, I hope they're as good a shot as you are.' He kind of smiled and said, ‘Nobody’s going to shoot at me.’ ”

He personally believes that Oswald acted alone in killing Kennedy, and says[citation needed] that in a 2006 discussion, he was told by Oswald's brother Robert that he believes the same thing, "because I knew my brother."

Leavelle was a sailor on board the USS Whitney during the December 7, 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

Succes 2010: James Leavelle, detectivul care îl escorta pe Lee Harvey Oswald în momentul în care asasinul lui JF Kennedy a fost ucis de Jack Ruby

I-am trimis o scrisoare detectivului James Leavelle, cel care l-a escortat pe Lee Harvey Oswald in momentul in care asasinul lui JF Kennedy a fost ucis de Jack Ruby. Il puteti identifica in poza dupa costumul crem si celebra palarie Stetson. Pe langa cele doua poze semnate, detectivul mi-a trimis si o nota-surpriza, in care imi spune ca ii datorez un dolar, din cauza faptului ca oficiul sau postal din Dallas nu mai preschimba in timbre Cupoanele Internationale de Raspuns. Pentru un colectionar, scrisorica face toti banii, sau, ma rog, dolarii!

James Leavelle a avut un destin extrem de interesant, in 1941 asistand, ca membru al echipajului navei USS Whitney, la masacrul de la Pearl Harbour.
