The M
ystery of the Three
Hobos: Solved?
By Joe M
elchior
For many years, JFK
assassination researchers have speculated that several photographs taken in D
ealy Plaza shortly after the assassi-nation of President K
ennedy reveal three individuals that may have
been involved in the shooting of the President. T
hese three men have
come to be know
n over the years as "The T
hree Hobos."
Questions have been raised about the identity of these gentlem
en for close to 29 years. T
here are several reasons for concern in this m
atter. First, the three hobos were arrested shortly after the assassina-
tion in a railroad box car behind the picket fence in the "grassy knoll" area Second, they w
ere supposedly released shortly after being taken to the D
allas Police Station in D
ealy Plaza. T
hird, there was no record
of the arrest of these men anyw
here. And last, but certainly not least,
they disappeared without a trace after the assassination.
Many researchers, including m
yself, have speculated on the identify of the 3 hobos. Som
e photo experts have claimed that one of
the hobos is Frank Sturgis, the C
IA m
an who w
as involved in the Bay
of Pigs invasion and in the training of anti-Castro C
ubans in the assassination attem
pts on Fidel Castro. A
nother hobo is thought to be C
harles Harrelson, a contract killer w
ho is now serving tim
e for the contract killing of U
.S. District Judge John H
. Wood Jr. H
arrelson claim
ed at one time that he in fact, w
as involvedin the assassination of President K
ennedy. He has since retracted th
at statemen
t T
he third hobo, w
ho is wearing a hat and carrying a paper sack in the photos that
were taken in D
ealy Plaza that day, bears a remarkable resem
blance to W
atergate conspirator E. H
oward H
unt. Many experts claim
this third hobo is H
unt.
According to the arrest reports, all three w
ere arrested for va-grancy and robbery im
mediately after the assassination. Further
investigation shows that D
oyle and Gedney are still living, but that
Abram
s died in Boston som
e time ago.
The syndicated television show
, "A C
urrent Affair", after som
e diligent detective w
ork, tracked down H
arold Doyle in K
lamm
ath F
alls, Oregon for an interview
which aired in F
ebruary of 1992. Doyle
claimed that he and the other tw
o "hobos" had left a homeless shelter
in Dallas and w
ere on their way to Fort W
orth when they w
ere de-tained in the railroad yards behind the grassy knoll. T
hey were ar-
rested in a boxcar. From there, they w
ere taken into custody and m
arched off to the police station. They w
ere held until Osw
ald was
arrested, at which tim
e a police officer told them, "Y
ou're lucky. You
just got to set the man w
ho shot President Kennedy." A
t this point, according to D
oyle, they were taken in front of a judge and booked for
vagrancy, given 6 day sentences, and promptly released. D
oyle swears
that neither he nor his comrades had anything to do w
ith the assassina-tion. D
oes this solve the mystery of the three hobos? O
n the surface, one w
ould think so. But like so m
any aspects of assassination, this revelation presents even m
ore questions. Doyle, the arresting officer,
and the Dallas Police D
epartment have all stated that the "hobos" w
ere released alm
ost imm
ediately after their arrest. But according to the
actual arrest reports, all three were released on N
ovember 26th, four
days after the assassination. Also, according to the arrest reports, all
three were arrested for vagrancy and robbery. R
obbery of what?
Harold D
oyle and Gus A
brams (dead) have been accounted for.
Where is John Forrester G
edney? According to the F.B
.I. he is cur-rently residing som
ewhere in Florida. A
t the time this article w
as w
ritten, Gedney had not yet been contacted by anybody. A
nd how
long and how w
ell did Doyle know
his partners? Finally, I find it just a little conspicuous that after 28 years, these
arrest reports were suddenly discovered in the m
idst of growing
awareness by the A
merican public of the assassination of President
John F. Kennedy.
Some people m
ay think that the discovery of these arrest reports etia

too
l. One can only com
e closer to the truth with the elim
ination of
suspects along the way. A
nd after all, isn't the truth the most im
por-
tant thing to all assassination researchers as well as the A
merican
public? In the process of finding truth, questions must be asked and
answered. T
he questions regarding the 3 hobos may now
have been
answered. B
ut many questions rem
ain, and they too, have to be
answered.

If Osw
ald was the assassin in the sixth floor w
indow of the School B
ook Depository, he w
ould have to have been there som
e time before the P
residential motorcade arrived in the P
laza. The
assassination occurred at 12:30. Kennedy delayed the start of the m
otorcade at Love F
ield when he
broke away from
the official welcom
ing party to meet and shake hands w
ith citizens who had com
e to greet him
. By the tim
e the motorcade reached D
ealey Plaza, it w
as running another five minutes

he assassin on the 6th floor would have had to have been in place som
etime before the
motorcade arrived to arrange the boxes in the w
indow and certainly w
ould not have known that the
motorcade w
as running at least nine minutes behind. Y
et, several witnesses place O
swald on the
first and second floors of the building just before and just after the assassination.

,
If the assassination occurred at 12:30, why w
as Osw
ald eating his lunch on the second floor of the building at 12:15. H
e would have had to have had tim
e to build his sniper's nest with boxes and
be in position as no one was sure of the exact m
inute the motorcade w
ould pass the building. The
Shelley statement that O
SWA
LD
was positioned near a telephone at 11:40 seem
s suspicious to me.
If OS
WA
LD
was stan
din
g near th
e teleph
one forty m
inu
tes before th
e assassination
, was h
e aw
aiting a call or did he use the telephone? If he did, this would certainly provide circum
stantial evidence of som
ething more than the lone gunm
an theory. It would tend to point to a conspiracy.

hearing the shots . he thought that they had come from
the School Book D

aker himself that this w

Baker said that he heard the first shot and saw
pigeons fly off the top of the building. It was at this
f_ point that he rode his m
otorcycle to the steps of the School Book D
epository Building and ran up
j ~•~'
the front steps. Ninety seconds later, he ran into O
swald in the lunch room
drinking a coke and `.,; asked O
swald if he w
orked here. Osw

orked in the building and was ok. B
aker stated that the two elevators w

Tw
o Navy m
edical technicians who w
ere present at the 1963 autopsy of President John
F. Kennedy have stated that photographs and X
-rays released by the government to support its
"lone assassin" theory are "phony". A
t a news conference in W
ashington last Thursday, w
hich was little noticed by m
ajor new
s media, Jerrol C
uster, who took the X
-rays of President Kennedy on the night of N
ovember
22, 1963, said the X-rays now
presented to the public "are wrong".
Another technician, Floyd R
iebe, who photographed K
ennedy's body during the autopsy, said photo now
shown to the public are "phony and not the photographs w
e took? T
heir assertions were intended to refute statem
ents from tw
o JFK autopsy doctors w
ho a w
eek earlier had stated that Kennedy w
as struck by two bullets from
high and behind, thus supporting the theory of the governm
ent that the fatal shots were fired by L
ee Harvey O
swald
from the T
exas School Book D
epository. While acknow
ledging shortcomings in the official
autopsy of Kennedy, retired N
avy Capt. Jam
es J. Hum
es and retired Navy C
mdr. J. T
hornton B
oswell nevertheless strenuously defended their conclusion that K
ennedy was struck by tw
o bullets from
above and behind. T
he doctors' statements as presented by G
eorge D. L
undberg, editor of the Journal of the A
merican M
edical Association, skirted the m
ain issue which is that the descriptions of
Kennedy's w
ounds as seen by Dallas m
edical authorities and the autopsy doctors are inconsistent, raising the possibility of alteration of the president's w
ounds while the body w
as in the custody of federal officials.
Every person in D
allas who saw
Kennedy's head w
ound stated there was a large hole in
the right rear portion of his head, indicating an exit wound from
a frontal shot. T
his description was confirm
ed by Riebe, w
ho said, "The picture of the back of his head
is not right. All that part of his head w
as missing as far as the right ear and there w
as not enough scalp to pull over the w
ound as it is in the picture." R
iebe added, "These film
s are doctored one way or another. It w
as touched up." C
uster, who took X
-rays of Kennedy's head , said the X
-rays now show
n to the public show
a large hole in the front part of his skull. "There w
as no damage to his face and no part of •
his skull was m
issing on the forward part of his head," said C
uster. "These are fake X
-rays!" In his statem
ents, Custer added m
ore heat to the allegation that an intact bullet slug was
found at autopsy. A
t least two separate governm
ent reports mention a "m
issile" removed
from the president's body during the autopsy.
7.111 •• 64;••.rorr.
found at nis atitopsy. A
t least two separatt governm
ent reports mention a "m
issile" rernoved from
the president's body during the autopsy. C
uster said when he lifted K
ennedy's body to place X-ray film
under it, a bullet fell out
• of his back. If indeed a bullet slug w
as rentoved from K
ennedy's body then it obviously could not
have gone through him to strike T
exas Gov. John C
onnally. The notion that one bullet struck
both Kennedy and C
onnally is the basis of the government's theory that one m
an fired all the shots during the assassination. B
oth Connally and his personal physician, D
r. Robert Shaw
, have
discounted the idea that Connally w
as struck by the first bullet which had passed through
Kennedy.
What m
any assassination researchers cannot understand is why the pronouncem
ents of
the AM
A and autopsy doctors w
as given nationwide m
edia play while the rebuttal by m
en who
also were at the autopsy w
as passed over lightly.

to believe th

there is
consid

oub

Bogard
also slated th

swald
wh

in 1966, from

L
