▶ 6:28 She would grow to love Marina as a sister. But despite Ruth's best intention, she helped lay waste to the Oswald's life. And in the end, Marina wished she had never met her. Ruth Payne has always scoffed at the idea that she played an intel…

▶ 7:01 meaning Ruth and her husband, Michael. In fact, Alan Dulles himself knew all about the unusual family background of the Paynes. It's a very interesting story. Ruth Payne's parents, Carol and William Hyde, met at Stanford University in the 1…

▶ 9:56 all around her. But it was the family background of Ruth's husband, Michael, that was the most directly overlapping with Alan Dulles. Mary Bancroft, Dulles' mistress, was one of the oldest friends of Michael Payne's mother. Really? Her name…

▶ 10:26 Where's that Lyman word keep coming up? That's a weird name. And there's so many people in this story, not the JFK story, but the Gladio story that has that name. And Ruth, Michael's mother's real name, full name is Ruth Forbes. Yes, that F…

▶ 13:55 They didn't like Catholics. Catholics like JFK. Lyman Payne, Rue's first husband, and Michael Payne's father came from a similar background, Boston Bluebloods. Mary summed up the privilege and political eccentric world of the Paynes by maki…

▶ 27:43 Appearing before the Warren Commission, Ruth and Michael Payne seemed confused and tentative when it came to assigning guilt to Oswald. They both agreed that while he was a man of headstrong conviction, he did not impress them as dangerous.…

▶ 28:41 I accepted the common view that he did it. In truth, Michael never knew Oswald very well. They only talked at length on four occasions. They would run into each other on some weekends when he was visiting his kids. One evening, Michael took…

▶ 29:09 like that because it was insufficiently militant. Neither of the Paynes were fond of Oswald. To Ruth, he was self-involved and ill-tempered. He was just part of the equation that she had to put up with in order to have Marina in her life. I…
The Colonel's Corner The Devil's Chessboard Part 24
▶ 30:44 whom you would expect to unwittingly harbor a dangerous man like Oswald. Not at all. The Paynes reunited for a time after the assassination, but later divorced. In old age, they now live in the same Quaker retirement compound north of San F…
