I understand your skepticism, Liborio, and I appreciate the courteous way you expressed it. What makes me lean toward Ruby acting alone is his deepening mental illnesses before, during and after the Oswald murder. He was a paranoid schizophrenic, possibly bipolar. Yes, he was a thug and a sleazy operator, but he also had a need to hero-worship authority figures—one reporter who knew him characterized him as “a pathetic figure.” And, as Lou said, he was a would-be big shot. He was also convinced of an anti-Jewish plot behind JFK’s assassination. You can find a scholarly discussion of Ruby’s mental problems here: https://medcraveonline.com/FRCIJ/ja...g-the-assassin-of-lee-harvey-oswald.htmlAs for the assassination: Given the passage of 60 years, the deaths of so many people who might have been in the know, and the non-discovery or disappearance (accidental or deliberate) of evidence, the only thing I’m certain of is that the case will never be closed. The conspiracy theorists might be right, the Warren Commission backers might be right, but I don’t think either side will settle it.

The top three Kennedy assassination books that prove once and for all that Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone gunman who pulled off the killing of the century with no involvement in any sort of conspiracy;
1) Reclaiming History by Vincent Bugliosi
2) Reclaiming History by Vincent Bugliosi
3) Reclaiming History by Vincent Buglios
If you haven't read it take the time to do so. Granted, it is a huge volume (approx 1600 pages) but I think IMHO,you will be glad you did.
I picked up a copy at the local 1/2 price book store,but after reading it,I would have willingly spent 3 times the actual retail price on it. I have been trying to get every conspiracy believer to read Reclaiming History for the longest time. Before I read it, I had read several books that bought into the conspiracy. I bought into it for the longest time myself, but as I was reading Reclaiming History I began to realize that the facts of the case were either misinterpreted or simply completely ignored by the conspiracy theorists. It also became evident that they had selectively cherry-picked information, creating a distorted version of events to fit preconceived notions.
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away

I agree Turnbull conspiracy theorists shouldn't be ridiculed. We should be sceptical about the trustworthiness of central governmental institutions. We should also be skeptical of writers who make money writing sexy books. I challenge you to read Reclaiming History H That is a truism lol..
