Lee Harvey Oswald and His Rifle <img src="http://www.toptenz.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/oswald-with-gun-and-communist-paper-382x400.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> According to four U.S. government investigations, Lee Harvey Oswald is  the sniper who killed John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. On March 31,  1963, Marina Oswald captured a collection of photographs showing Lee  Harvey Oswald in his backyard with a rifle in hand. Along with the gun,  the photographs show Oswald holding two Marxist newspapers, The Militant  and The Worker. He is wearing a .38 caliber revolver on his waist. In  1978, the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) determined  that the rifle in the picture was the same used to shoot Kennedy. The  revolver was also determined to be the weapon used to kill Officer J. D.  Tippit following the assassination. The collection of photos is widely  recognized as some of the most significant evidence against Oswald. The pictures have been subjected to rigorous analysis and many people  have claimed they are altered. Oswald insisted they were forgeries. Some  inconsistencies include unnatural lines in Oswald’s face, an identical  background in all three photographs, unnatural shadows, and inconsistent  body length between pictures. In 1978, a British forensic photography  expert named Malcolm Thompson determined that the pictures were fakes.  However, after seeing the evidence presented by the HSCA investigation,  Thompson recanted his conclusion and agreed that the backyard pictures  were genuine. After digitally analyzing the photograph of Oswald holding  the rifle and paper, computer scientist Hany Farid concluded that the  photo was “almost certainly not altered.” Interesting Fact On February 21, 1964 the picture of Lee Harvey Oswald in his backyard  was featured on the cover of LIFE magazine. It was also placed on the  front page of the Free Press. Certain alterations were visible between  the two photographs. The Free Press picture completely removed the  rifle’s scope. The occurrence caused distrust and fueled conspiracy  theories.</blockquote>
