KENNEDY ASSASSINATION QUOTATION

From Taking Charge: The Johnson White House Tapes by Micheal R. Beschloss

” SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1963

LBJ: Have you established any more about the visit to the Soviet embassy in Mexico in September ?

J. EDGARHOOVER: No, that’s one angle that’s very confusing, for this reason- we have here on tape and the photograph of the man who was at the Soviet embassy, using Oswald’s name. That picture and the tape do not correspond to this man’s voice, nor to his appearance. In, other words, it appears that there is a second person who was at the embassy down there…

Beschloss footnote 2: A CIA memo written that day reported that Oswald had visited mexico City in September and talked to a Soviet vice Consul whom the CIA knew as an expert in assassination and sabotage. The memo warned that if Oswald had indeed been part of a foreign conspiracy, he might be killed before he could reveal it to U.S. authorities ( National Archives).
