Richard Case Nagell
Foreknowledge of the assassination exists in many facets of the case. One of them is a man named Richard Nagell.
Nagell was from Greenwich NY, he joined the Army in 1948, served in Korea, received rank of Field Captain by the age of 20.
After being severely injured in a plane crash in 1954, Nagell served in the Army Counter Intelligence Corp as a CIC Officer.
When he left the service in 1959 he had made rank of Second Lieutenant, and in Dec. of that year, began work as an investigator.
In 1962 he began working for the Central Intelligence Agency as a double agent. He was active in the Communist Party and was
involved distributing propaganda in Mexico. Part of his surveillance involved Cuban Exiles planning to assassinate Fidel Castro.
Within a year he discovered the plot had morphed into a plan to assassinate Kennedy and make it look as though it was ordered by Cuba.
On Sept. 20, 1963, he walked into The First National Bank in El Paso Tx, fired two shots into the ceiling, then waited until police arrived.
At first, he told the cops he was upset about the judicial system and his inability to see his children while separated from his wife.
In early Nov. '63, he told an El Paso Judge, his motive was not to rob the bank, and that he would not disclose his reasons at this time.
Then on 11/21, Nagell said he initiated a warning on the president's life thru the jail authorities, to both the FBI and Secret Service.
Once the assassination happened, the FBI took a much closer interest in Nagell. In Dec '63 he told authorities he knew Marina Oswald.
On Dec. 20th he gave an affidavit to the FBI that he met Lee Oswald in Mexico City, and in Texas, but only knew him socially.
In Jan. '64, came his arraignment before a Judge where he made the below statement.
He was eventually sentenced to 10 years, but the charges were overturned, and he was released in early 1967.

Richard Nagell Statement | Jan. 04, 1964
"...In September 1962, while I was in Mexico City a representative of a foreign government proposed to me that
I participate in an act; such act being a criminal offense and inimical to the best interest of the United States. At that time,
I refused such proposal. In May 1963 another representative of the same foreign government made the same proposal to me.
At the time, I agreed to such proposal."
"In September 1963, I was informed by an American known to me as an agent of the same foreign government that arrangements
for my participation in the aforementioned act were completed. At the time, I refused the aforesaid proposal."
Approximately one week later, I was instructed by the same person to either participate as previously agreed or derogatory information
pertaining to me would be disclosed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Thereupon, I agreed to follow the instructions of this person,
although I did not intend to do so. This existing situation actuated my conduct on September 20, 1963 for which I was arrested and
am presently charged."
"I did not actually attempt to rob any bank I thought that my arrest will provide an immediate, though temporary,
solution to the problem with which I was confronted I am not guilty as charged."
