In reply to the discussion: JFK Conference: Mark Lane Addressed the Secret Government’s Role in the Assassination [View all]stopbush
(24,396 posts)"Many of the allegations of conspiracy the committee investigated were first raised by Mark Lane, the attorney who represented James Earl Ray at the committees public hearings. As has been noted, the facts were often at variance with Lanes assertions. . . . In many instances, the committee found that Lane was willing to advocate conspiracy theories publicly without having checked the factual basis for them. In other instances, Lane proclaimed conspiracy based on little more than inference and innuendo. Lanes conduct resulted in public misperception about the assassination of Dr. King and must be condemned. (House Select Committee Report, Page 424, footnote 16)
Proud to stand with Mark Lane? Proud to stand with a liar.
BTW - I only mention the HSCA because Octa constantly cites them as an authority on the JFK assassination when it comes to CTs.
