Ciphered Past Episode 61- HSCA: The Rise and Fall with James DiEugenio

In Episode 61 of Ciphered Past, we welcome back veteran JFK researcher, author, and historian James DiEugenio for an in-depth examination of the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) and the declassified records that continue to reshape our understanding of President Kennedy's assassination. Jim discusses his latest Substack series, "The Rise and Fall of the HSCA," exploring how the committee evolved from a potentially groundbreaking investigation under Richard Sprague into what some critics view as a constrained inquiry. The discussion covers the Mexico City evidence, the Lopez Report, Anne Goodpasture, George de Mohrenschildt, David Atlee Phillips, autopsy controversies, medical evidence, and the lingering questions surrounding declassified records. From the CIA's surveillance operations in Mexico City to the disputed autopsy evidence at Bethesda, this conversation examines why so many questions surrounding November 22, 1963 remain unresolved more than six decades later. Whether you're a longtime researcher or new to the JFK case, this episode offers a detailed look into one of the most debated events in American history.
