Hoover memo ties Oswald to Cuba in Kennedy plot report
The Washington Post cites sources claiming a 1964 Justice Department memo from J Edgar Hoover said Oswald discussed with Cuban officials a plan to kill Kennedy. The post notes Oswald visited the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City before the 1963 assassination. CIA and Warren Commission figures dispute the memo’s existence. A House panel investigating the assassinations plans to meet next Monday with analyst Richard Sprague guiding the probe.
