The worst assassination in American history: President Kennedy was assassinated and 18 witnesses died one after another

Hello everyone, this is the Strange News Observation Room

This issue I say: "President Kennedy's Assassination Case"

Texas is the largest state in the southern United States and the second largest state in the United States in terms of land area and population.

In 1963, a murder case that could be called a world mystery occurred here, and the 35th President of the United States John Kennedy was shot here.

John Kennedy

This case has had a profound impact on the United States and the whole world. People have been constantly researching and analyzing the true cause of Kennedy's death for decades, but unfortunately it is still confusing.

So how President Kennedy was assassinated and what is the truth about his death?

Let's go back to 1963 and take you to re-examine the details of the case

United States·Texas

On November 22, 1963, the 35th President of the United States, John Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, accompanied by the vice president, went to Dallas, Texas for a visit.

Access

What they didn't know, however, was that for President Kennedy, it was a journey without going back.

At 12 noon on November 22, 1963, President Kennedy, his wife Jacqueline, and the vice president and the governor sat in a luxury convertible car with Lincoln brand through the streets of Dallas, accepting cheers from enthusiastic people.

In order to let the people feel the president's favor, President Kennedy also asked someone to remove the roof of the car.

At about 12:30 pm CST, when Kennedy's convoy drove near the Texas Textbook Warehouse building, there were crowds of people who welcomed Kennedy on the street.

Just as President Kennedy waved and smiled at the crowd, the dull first shot rang out of the square, President Kennedy covered his throat with his hand, and he was hit in the neck, Jacqueline was beside Kennedy, trying to use his hand to stop the blood from flowing out of Kennedy.

Stamped in the neck

But before the people around him could react, a second shot was fired. This shot was the most deadly, because it hit the back of the president's head and the bullets shot his body awaySplit skull.

Jacqueline also climbed behind the car and picked up a piece of skull fragment. At the same time, Governor Connery was also shot. After the shooting stopped, Kennedy's body collapsed in the back seat and fell beside Jacqueline.

JFK slumped in the back seat

At this time, the president's car drove away from Deely Square and rushed along the Sdymons Expressway to Parkland Memorial Hospital 6.4 kilometers away, and arrived in a few minutes.

However, the shooting directly hit the head, which was fatal. Although the doctors carried out full rescue efforts, they still did not rescue their president. In fact, President Kennedy was likely to have died when he was shot.

Rear Seat

At 13:00 pm CST, the president was officially declared dead after all Kennedy's heart function stopped and the priest performed the final ceremony.

JF Kennedy is the 35th president of the United States and the fourth president in American history to be assassinated. He became the second youngest president in American history at the age of 43.

In addition, He is also the only president who believes in Catholicism and the only Pulitzer Prize. It can be said that many people who support him not only because he is the president, but also treat him as an idol and a star.

President Kennedy

It's a pity that he should have had a great future, but he was assassinated under the gaze of countless people.

The death of President Kennedy has a profound impact on the United States and the entire world. Many people say that if President Kennedy was not assassinated, it might change the history of the entire world.

At the same time, with the death of President Kennedy, the most sad and affected one is his family, which is the famous Kennedy family. The saying "curses" have been circulating about the Kennedy family. For a detailed introduction, you can watch this video of my video.

The Legend of the "cursed" of the Kennedy Family

I won't go into details here

Catch the murderer

The US president was shot in public, and it was a big deal. The police immediately launched an action to investigate the murderer.

The US police were extremely efficient this time. According to historical records, at 1:50 pm that day, 1 hour and 20 minutes after President Kennedy was shot, the police caught the murderer.

The murderer was initially identified as Lee Harvey Oswald. He was a Cuban American who served in the U.S. Marine Corps, had excellent shooting results, was called a sharpshooter. After retiring, he also settled in the Soviet Union.

Lee Harvey Oswald

Archive records that after Harvey shot and killed the president, he first took a bus and then took a taxi back home. After staying at home for a few minutes, he left home.

Fifteen minutes later, police officer Tibit was killed by him with a pistol a mile away. At 1:40 pm, a shoe store owner saw Harvey entering the Texas Theater, so he called the police. Ten minutes later, Harvey was arrested by the police who came.

When the United States was about to take a good trial of this Harvey, something jaw-dropping happened. Just two days later, the suspect Harvey was shot dead by a nightclub owner Jack Ruby.

Suspect Harvey was shot dead

You know, at that time, there were dozens of agents and police officers surrounding the suspect. They blatantly arrived at the scene with a pistol and killed the other party during the live broadcast. This is too ridiculous. This is a typical "death without evidence". In an old Chinese saying, this is "There is no silver here".

After the suspect Harvey was shot, the newly appointed 36th President Lyndon Johnson personally appointed a special committee to thoroughly investigate the murder.

On November 29, 1963, the Warren Commission was established, and the Chief Justice of the United States Earl Warren is the chairman of this committee, so the committee is also known as the Warren Commission.

Their investigation results are all included in the "Report of the Presidential Special Committee on the Assassination of President Kennedy", namely the "Warren Report".

Magic Bullet

The Warren Committee then asked the gunshots heard by 178 witnesses, 132 said it was three times, 17 said it was two times, 7 said it was two times, 6 said it was four times, and 9 said it wasn't clear.

Bullet

Combined with the situation where the warhead was found at the scene, the investigation team determined that a total of three bullets were shot during the assassination of the president, causing the president to be shot in the neck and head, and Governor Connery was injured.

Testing with the bolt-action rifle found on siteThe committee arranged for the sharpshooter to test the rifle, and concluded that "the minimum time required to use this rifle to shoot two precisely aimed bullets is 2.25 seconds"

According to the video taken by President Kennedy when he was assassinated, it can be seen that President Kennedy was shot in the neck and Governor Connery was injured. The time interval was very short, obviously less than 2.25 seconds. Therefore, many people believe that the murderer is not just Harvey, but there should be a second gunman or even a third gunman at the scene.

Bullet

However, the Warren Commission does not think so. The committee determined that the one who hit President Kennedy's neck and Governor Connery was a bullet, which was called the "one bullet theory". The three shots at that time were the first shot was empty, the second shot hit the president's neck and Governor Connery, and the third shot hit the president in the head.

This theory determines that there is only one person in the assassination and that person has been shot.

But this theory has been widely criticized by the public because the Warren Commission believes that the trajectory of the bullet is:

Enter the human body two inches to the right of Kennedy's spine, through the president's neck, out from under the Adam's apple, and then shot from behind Governor Connery's right armpit.

Write out below the right breast with a downward movement of 10 degrees, penetrate into Governor Connery's right wrist. Governor Connery's bracelet was shaken off and then entered into his left thigh, and finally fell out when he was sent to the hospital.

Schematic diagram

According to the theory of Warren's report, the bullet kept turning while moving, causing 7 wounds to the president and the governor, and the warhead was very complete in the end. This theory was once called the "magic bullet theory". Obviously, everyone did not believe this result.

However, after experiments, the Exploration Channel reproduced this scene. They used different fibers and hard objects to simulate flesh and bones, and then fired bullets at the corresponding position with the gunman. They successfully reproduced the use of one bullet to cause multiple wounds and basically did not deform the bullets. So in the end, this "magic bullet theory" was accepted by people.

Li Changyu

Dr. Li Changyu later participated in the investigation of the case. He found that the bullet did not have the DNA of Kennedy and the governor. It was later proved that the warhead was carefully cleaned and used for ballistic experiments. The main evidence was cleaned, which hindered the investigation of the case.

The investigation team led by Justice Warren investigated for 10 months, and searched for a total of 552 witnesses and 25,000 relevant personnel, forming an investigation report of up to thousands of pages. This report uses the law to deal with theOfficial Warren's name is Warren Report, which is now published in full on the US government website.

Warren Report

On September 27, 1964, the committee announced the "objective truth" of the assassination of the president "in the name of controversy and sanity": "Suspect Lee Harvey Oswald was purely personal"

The key points of this report are as follows:

1. Harvey is the murderer who killed the president and injured the governor

2. Bullets shot out from the 6th floor window of the textbook building

3. No other person or group was found involved in the conspiracy to murder the president

4. No evidence was found that Harvey served, was funded, and acted as a spy for foreign governments

5. Harvey is not an agent or employee of the FBI, the CIA or any other government department

6. There is no evidence that Harvey and Jack Ruby (the man who assassinated Harvey) have met

7. No official has participated in conspiracy or subversion of the U.S. government

8. Conclusion ruled out the possibility of the Soviet Union and Cuba intervening, and also ruled out the claim that the US government and its institutions participated. The assassination was just an accidental "accident".

In other words, the assassination of the president is Harvey's personal behavior, and Jack Ruby, who assassinated Harvey, is also a personal behavior. Quoting the FBI:

"This is a tragedy in the United States from beginning to end, the personal behavior of two people with unstable mental states among 190 million Americans"

This conclusion is obviously unacceptable to the public, because according to the various phenomena on the scene, it is an organized and premeditated assassination.

The suspect Harvey once publicly stated that he was just a scapegoat. Such an important suspect was shot and killed before the trial began. Moreover, the shooting process was broadcast live. The key point was that Harvey's murderer, Jack Ruby, stayed in prison for 3 years, said nothing, and eventually died of illness in prison.

Jack Ruby

What is even more bizarre is that in just three years after President Kennedy was assassinated,trong>18 key witnesses died one after another, of which 6 were shot, 3 died in car accidents, 2 committed suicide, 1 had a throat cut, 1 had a neck twisted, and 5 died "naturally". The probability of this coincidence can be said to be more difficult than winning the lottery, how can it be convincing?

From 1963 to 1984, a total of 103 relevant witnesses "died unlawful" due to various reasons such as murder, suicide, car crash, plane crash, and building crashes.

Some of these people seem to have nothing to do with Kennedy's assassination, but none of them survived. Among them, the famous one is Kennedy's mistress Marilyn Monroe.

Marilyn Monroe

In addition to the continuous "death of death", some evidence was slowly destroyed and replaced. For example, the Lincoln car in which President Kennedy was assassinated was quickly cleaned afterwards, including the damaged car glass being replaced, as well as President Kennedy's autopsy report, etc. It is said that it was also destroyed and replaced at that time.

These signs make people wonder what the forces behind are destroying all the evidence about Kennedy's assassination, completely turning this case into an unreported case, and ultimately making everyone believe that the murderer is Harvey.

State guess

The truth about Kennedy's death has been around for at least 36 different versions in the past few decades, including Soviet spies, Cuban government, Wall Street, Freemasons and even aliens. Today we will mainly tell you about several of the mainstream speculations.

Guess 1: Died at Harvey

So far, the murderer that has been identified by the official information is Lee Harvey Oswald. He does have some suspicions. First of all, he is a soldier and a sniper, and he is also called a sharpshooter.

Have is a soldier

Texas police officers Wesman and Poney found a 6.5×52mm Italian-made Carcano M91/38 manual rifle on the 6th floor of the textbook warehouse building shortly after President Kennedy was shot.

After investigation, the gun came from a Chicago mail order shop, an old Italian rifle made in 1940.

A few months ago, the rifle was mailed to a man named AJ. Hiddell, who, when Harvey was arrested, said "Erics J. Hiddell's fake ID card was found, and an incomplete fingerprint was found on the barrel that was confirmed to belong to Harvey.

Rifle

These evidence clearly shows that he is the murderer.

But is it really that simple to assassinate the president?

After Harvey was arrested, he publicly stated that he was not arrested for assassinating the president, and that he was just a scapegoat.

This remark forced the public to suspect that someone planned this matter and Harvey was just a scapegoat.

A man standing on the street looks like Harvey

In fact, some people have said that when President Kennedy was assassinated, there was a man standing on the street like Harvey. If this is the case, then he would not be the murderer. Unfortunately, the videos shot on the scene were not clear at that time, and this statement cannot be proved.

Guess 2: At that time, Vice President: Lyndon Johnson

For any case that occurs, we should analyze it from a scientific and ideal perspective. We must find out whoever gains the greatest benefits after the case occurs, and whoever makes the profit will definitely be suspicious.

This theory should be said to be the most direct and usually the most correct

So when we look back at the case of President Kennedy being stabbed, there is no doubt that the most profitable one is the vice president.

Vice President Johnson

Because Kennedy had a high possibility of continuing to be re-elected, which means that the vice president was still hopeless to be elected president, but Kennedy was assassinated and he immediately became a regular.

Because US law stipulates that the US president dies during his term of office and the remaining presidential term will be taken over by the vice president, this motivation can be said to be very obvious.

According to historical records, just two hours after Kennedy was assassinated, Johnson swore to serve as the 36th president of the United States on Air Force 1.

Johnson becomes president

You should know that Kennedy's body was not cold at that time, and Kennedy's wife Jacqueline was still needed to be present when taking the oath. At this time, Jacqueline was still wearing the same clothes covered with President Kennedy's blood. In such a scene, you can imagine how uncomfortable Jacqueline felt.

The plane took off and flew to Washington after Johnson's oath, which was the only presidential inauguration ceremony held on the plane in the United States.

There is obviously a turn

And the route of the Presidential Convoy was also temporarily changed. The changed route was obviously a turn, which would slow the convoy so that the gunman could carry out the shooting. This change was obviously approved by Johnson, otherwise no one would have the power to change, which made Johnson's suspicion even more.

Guess 3: Edgar Hoover

When talking about Hoover, I believe many people have heard of his name. He is the first director of the FBI as we often call him. He served for 48 years and can be said to be a legendary figure who has been in power for nearly half a century.

Edgar Hoover

In those 48 years, the United States changed 8 presidents and 16 prosecutors, but the status of FBI director was never shaken, and the power he had was beyond imagination.

During Kennedy's tenure, there were many rumors that President Kennedy felt that the FBI had too much power and wanted to weaken Hoover's rights. This was obviously unacceptable to Hoover. This was what moved him, so some people think that Hoover might be the mastermind behind the scenes.

In fact, the FBI was the first authoritative body to complete an official investigation, and within hours of the case, Director Edgar Hoover said:

"We need to need persuasive evidence to prove to the American people that Harvey is the real murderer"

On December 9, 1963, 17 days after the assassination, the FBI report was published and submitted to the Warren Commission, and the FBI stated:

Lee Harvey Oswald fired all three bullets, causing the death of President Kennedy.

From this point of view, it seems that Hoover is indeed suspicious. His purpose of investigation is just to prove that Oswald was the murderer, and in the 1961 Bay of Pigs incident, President Kennedy and Hoover had a conflict.

In fact, Hoover has been sitting at the FBI director for 48 years and has his own means of defending himself and ensuring his status. His most powerful thing is his secret files. It is said that he has mastered the privacy and black information of most senior American officials, including successive presidents, so the several presidents he replaced during his reign did not dare to touch him.

Hoover

Think of another way, if President Kennedy JFK really wants to weaken Hoover's rights, Hoover can also use the secret files in his hands to negotiate, there is no need to take such a great risk to arrange for assassination directly.

Guess 4: Arms Merchants

Although President Kennedy was very young and had a short reign, he did not disappoint the Americans. Kennedy was in power for less than three years, but when he was young, he was known as the four major presidents of the United States together with Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt.

He had excellent political achievements in the short term. When he was in office, he tried to abolish the Federal Reserve, calmly respond to the Cuban missile crisis, and fully supported the war of science and technology, support the space program, and the Vietnam War and the American Civil Rights Movement that he later presided over.

President Kennedy's political achievements are excellent

JFK later wanted to end the war as soon as possible for the Vietnam War, so he asked the US troops to slowly withdraw from Vietnam. In the early stage, he asked 1,000 US troops to withdraw first.

We all know that war is a money-burning machine. Once there is a war, the money will be spent astronomical.

It is precisely because of this that those arms dealers like to fight the most, because as long as they fight, they will have endless money to make.

However, President Kennedy is preparing to end the war in Vietnam as soon as possible, which is undoubtedly a cheese for arms dealers. In the face of such huge interests, it is impossible to guarantee that those arms dealers will do anything crazy.

Film and TV Works

The arms dealers have a deep foundation in the United States and their power can be said to be intricate. It is entirely possible to plan such as assassination together. Because of this, many people believe that Kennedy's death is inseparable from these arms dealers.

Of course there is also the shadow of Vice President Johnson here,He was the spokesperson for those arms dealers at the time, and after he became the president of the United States, he immediately overturned Kennedy's previous laws on the withdrawal of troops in Vietnam.

Guess 5: Southern Oil Tycoon

We know that oil represents wealth. At that time, there were a lot of oil tycoons gathered in the southern United States, especially in Texas.

After Kennedy was elected president, he planned to implement fiscal reforms and vigorously cut tax incentives for Texas oil tycoons. You should know that this is not a small amount of money. Once fiscal reform, the oil tycoon's annual losses can reach hundreds of millions of dollars.

Petroleum

This undoubtedly uses the oil tycoon's cake, so oil tycoons are very likely to take risks.

/p>

And the place where President Kennedy was assassinated was in Texas, which was the base camp of those oil tycoons, and for them, the action was also very beneficial.

Of course, it may not be that simple behind this. Although those oil tycoons are rich, they may not necessarily succeed. Don’t worry. If you use your brain a little, we will find that there is another shadow of Vice President Johnson here.

Petroleum

Crazy, Johnson was born in Texas, which is also his base camp, and behind him are those oil tycoons, because running for president requires a lot of money to support, and Johnson's source of money is those oil tycoons.

If President Kennedy was stabbed is really an oil tycoon's method, then Johnson should have a share, of course the above are just speculations.

Subsequel

At present, Kennedy's assassination case is still a world-wide unsolved case. Although there are still various speculations among the people, the United States has never given a definite answer.

JFK

Maybe the truth behind it has been found out, but it contains a lot of state secrets, so it has not been released.

According to US law, all secret files about President Kennedy must be released to the public, but the most core documents are still protected. It seems that if you want to know the truth, you can only hope that the United States can publish those last files as soon as possible.

In fact, no matter who is elected as the president of the United States, when you stand on the commanding heights of power, no matter what policies you formulate, what financial changes you make, or what laws you issue, these will inevitably benefit some people, and of course they will also touch the cheese of another group. They will regard you as a thorn in your side and a thorn in your flesh.

JFK

So some people say that the US president is a high-risk profession, which makes some sense.

President Kennedy was originally a very capable president because he was not kidnapped by interests. The large amount of money support for others running for president must come from the capital support behind them, which will inevitably be kidnapped by interests. But the Kennedy family is rich and the money they run for themselves is paid, and they will not be kidnapped by any force.

Although he has been in power for only a few years, he has promulgated many laws and implemented reforms, which will inevitably touch the interests of too many people and offend too many forces, such as the one I mentioned beforeThe threat of Buddha's status, the cake that moved the arms dealers, the cake that moved the southern oil giants, etc.

The Kennedy Family

No matter who planned President Kennedy's death, there is no doubt that this must be the result of power.

Okay, the above is today's story. I am Changfeng, see you next time!
