Read: You don't care about the scientific and medical problems posed by the freckles. You're just going to dismiss them and ignore them, because you cannot explain them. Nor can you explain how nobody on the Montauk could see a resemblance between the photos of Booth and the body they were viewing, when Rollins had no problem recognizing the man on crutches as the man in the Booth photo that Conger/Baker showed him less than 48 hours before Booth was supposedly shot. Maybe one day you'll venture to explain what in the world happened between the time Rollins was shown a picture of Booth and recognized him as the man on crutches and the time Booth's alleged body was viewed on the Montauk.

Oh, really? Ok, well, I have a little surprise and confession for you: The article from which I quoted was not written by Mills. It was written by . . . MICHAEL KAUFFMAN. I promised myself I would reveal the article's true author after I received the first dismissive, pejorative reply about Mills (and I figured you were a leading candidate to provide such a response). Here's the link to Kauffman's article:

And, if you were in the thick of things, you would know of the decades of "continuing disagreement" that has gone on between Mike and Ed (and Mr. Hall) over the Mudd issue - to the point of serious contentiousness. However, even the folks at the Dr. Mudd museum are discussing the points that worked against Dr. Mudd. As his own lawyer stated after the trial, "...Mudd's own prevarications almost doomed him." (I'm paraphrasing because I am not close to my source.)
