Bonus: Exploring Prayer Man with Bart Kamp

For sixty-three years, a shadowed figure has been standing in the doorway of the Texas School Book Depository, hiding in plain sight in the Wiegman and Darnell films of the JFK assassination. The Warren Commission never asked who he was. The House Select Committee on Assassinations never asked. The JFK research community calls him "Prayer Man" and there is now a serious, document-driven case that he is Lee Harvey Oswald, watching the motorcade from the front steps at the exact moment the official story says he was firing a rifle from six floors up. If that case is right, there is no case to answer.

In this bonus episode, Matt sits down with Bart Kamp, author of the 2023 book Prayer Man: More Than a Fuzzy Picture, for a deep dive into who Prayer Man is and into the second-floor lunchroom encounter between Oswald and Officer Marrion Baker that may never have happened at all. Along the way: the FBI agent who appears to have built the encounter from whole cloth, the smoking-gun Hosty interrogation note that has Oswald telling agents he went "outside to watch the parade," the Ochus Campbell quote in the New York Herald Tribune that puts Oswald on the first floor right after the shots, and the timing problem with the Hidell ID that links Oswald to the rifle. James DiEugenio called Kamp's book "a credible effort" that "goes literally to the heart of the basics of the JFK case." Hit play and judge for yourself.
