This is from WKTV in Utica, NY from Nov of 2013.
Jefferson Morley has a new article wherein he's
calling Edward Sinker a fraud. Mr. Sinker claims he was an independent
investigator into the JFK assassination starting in the 1970's. He then
claims he worked as a consultant to the HSCA, except neither Robert Tannenbaum
nor Dr. Wecht have ever heard of him. Sinker also claims that he met
Senator Ted Kennedy and that Senator Kennedy allowed him to see autopsy
materials, specifically, "cross sectional specimens of the brain."
Well, that's very interesting because Dr. Cyril
Wecht in a New York Times article, August 27, 1972, on the front page, written
by Fred P. Graham, mentioned how JFK's brain was missing. So, it would be
impossible for Mr. Ed Sinker to be examining any cross sectional specimens of
the brain because they went missing years before the HSCA was created. It
is presumed by the extant documentary record that RFK may have gained access
and control over JFK's brain and other autopsy material and may have destroyed
them, though this is not in anyway proven and should not be taken as historical
fact.
There are four known documents in the JFK Records
Collection at Archives II in College Park, Maryland that pertain to Ed Sinker.
1.) 180-10076-10300, an outside contact report
2.) 180-10094-10481, a document from a
private citizen to Mr. Donald Purdy.
3.) 180-10076-10286, general correspondence
from a private citizen
4.) 180-10083-10249, a document from
a private citizen
None detail anything like what Mr. Sinker claims,
that he was a consultant for the HSCA.
Apparently, he did meet Senator Edward
"Ted" Kennedy once. But, big deal.
Morley references an article in Cigar Afficionado magazine which
discovered that Mr. Ed Sinker was convicted of mail fraud and served four
months in prison. This concerned his prized collection of political
campaign buttons. He said they were stolen while he was at a
political button show in Pennyslvania. They were valued at over $76,000.
He almost got away with it. Let me quote this paragraph from the
Cigar Afficionado magazine article:
"Sinker might have gotten away with his scam had he not succumbed to a common penchant of button collectors: he liked to show off his treasures. In October 1992, at the height of the Bush-Clinton race, Sinker went on WKTV in Utica, New York, to display his splendid assortment of antique buttons--two years after he claimed they had been stolen."
"Sinker might have gotten away with his scam had he not succumbed to a common penchant of button collectors: he liked to show off his treasures.

Yes, its the same guy, lying to the same TV station. Edward M Sinker cons WKTV in Utica, TWICE! How stupid are they?
This guy was an attorney!
"For approximately ten years, appellant--an
attorney--served as Chief Title Counsel to Allied American Abstract Corp., a
title abstract company. In that capacity, appellant performed title
examinations, reviewed and negotiated contracts, and represented Allied in
various other legal matters. In July 1994, appellant was indicted on one count
of mail fraud under 18 USC § 3141, a felony. The charges stemmed from his
submission of a false insurance claim to Allstate Insurance Company for theft
of a political button collection." ( See

He lost his job, and his law license. But, he
didn't go quietly.
"Soon after his conviction and termination of
his employment, appellant applied for unemployment insurance benefits, which
respondent Commissioner of Labor denied on the ground that appellant had
engaged in conduct constituting a felony in connection with his employment. On
appellant's request for further review, a hearing was held before an
Administrative Law Judge, who sustained the Commissioner's determination, as
did the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board and the Appellate Division."
What a schmuck.
If you read the decision on this, 5, count them,
5, 5 judges denied his appeal for unemployment insurance.
