Jefferson Morley: CIA Agency Leaders Lied Under Oath About Lee Harvey Oswald Before JFK’s Assassination

EXCERPT:

MORLEY: “One newly declassified passage showed that Angleton had lied under oath about his surveillance of Oswald’s correspondence while he lived in the Soviet Union from 1959 to 1962. And that, for me, was a tipping point. The transcript, which the CIA withheld from public view for half a century, confirmed a disturbing fact. James Angleton is the third senior CIA officer known to have lied under oath about what they knew about the alleged assassin Oswald before JFK was killed. The first was deputy director Richard Helms. He lied to the Warren Commission in May 1964 when he said under oath the CIA had only ‘minimal information’ about Oswald before JFK was killed. 198 pages of information cannot be truthfully described as minimal.”
