John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the united states, was assassinated at 12:30 pm on Friday, November 22, 1963, in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas. Despite the many imaginative conspiracy theories such as, the Mafia, FBI, or CIA being directly responsible for the assassination, the most plausible and logical explanation is that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of JFK. This particular theory is most credible due to the evidence that implies his motives, means and other supporting evidence.…
The mob hated Bobby Kennedy, which was the Attorney General and JFK’s brother for aggressively going after the mob. He was working hard to crack down on them. The mafia wanted ties with Cuba back, and Bobby stood in the way. They killed JFK to stop Bobby. They knew that if they went for JFK directly they would have had the marines sent after them. So it was a smarter move to kill JFK to stop Bobby. It worked.…
Here he comes! Heading passed the Texas Book Depository. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Our thirty-fifth president John F. Kennedy was shot, and died instantly. How many shooters were there? How many shots were there really? Who was this Lee Harvey Oswald? Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald? These are the mysteries of JFK’s assassination. There are many conspiracies to his assassination, like the official Warren Commission report of 1964. I have a theory there were multiple shooters. There were many shooters, because of how many shots there were, and the autopsy photos of JFK and the bullet wounds in the governor. This will all tie into my conspiracy.…
THE MOB FELT BETRAYED IN 1963. Chicago godfather Sam Giancana had helped Kennedy win the 1960 election through skulduggery, and Miami mobster Santos Trafficante had aided the CIA in its assassination attempts on Castro. But rather than pledging their loyalty, the Kennedys launched an all-out campaign against organized crime. Attorney General Robert Kennedy first went after Teamster boss Jimmy Hoffa and then deported New Orleans syndicate boss Carlos Marcello to Guatemala. Pushed around long enough, and angry at the president for going soft on Castro -- who had shut down its lucrative Cuban casinos -- the mob made someone an offer he couldn't refuse. Oswald was either its hit man or its patsy. Upon his arrest, the mob dispatched Jack Ruby to silence him.…
This conspiracy begins with mention of the ever so popular “Magic Bullet”. Although there can never really be such thing as a magic bullet, evidence has shown that in order for the shot that passed through Kennedy and into Conolly to have been fired from the Depository, one would have had to have existed. Simple bullet ballistics contradicts the path that the bullet took. After it passed through Kennedy, experts say that the bullet would have had to stop in mid air, take a dramatic turn to the right and continue straight from that location into the back of Connolly. The CIA and FBI have been very quick to dismiss this theory along with just about all other conspiracies that have surfaced over the years. However the idea of the “Magic Bullet” and the questionable trajectory of the shot is something that cannot go overlooked.…
It was all over in a few seconds, but the assassination of John F Kennedy on 22 November 1963 has generated five decades of conspiracy theories. At Dallas Texas the president was shot in motorcade. There are many conspiracy theories on how and who shot the president. There are many conspiracy cover-ups and what Oswald and Ruby were doing.…
After Lucky Luciano went to prison in 1936, Costello became the boss of the Luciano crime family, the most powerful crime family in New York and one of the Five Families of the New York Mafia.…
Friday, November 22nd, 1963: The President of the United States, John F. Kennedy was traveling through Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas. While riding down the street with his wife, Jacqueline, a bullet hit JFK at 12:30 p.m. Two other shots followed and Kennedy was struck. His body was sent to the Parkland Hospital where JFK was pronounced dead. Then against the wishes of Texas authorities, the body was flown to Washington where autopsies were taken place and he was later buried. This was the event of the assassination of our 35th president. There are many supposed reasons and theories as to why the president was shot and still today people try to link together pieces to the story.…
What really happened on the 22nd of November in the year 1963? This question has lingered throughout minds of American citizens for the past 50 years. Who killed the beloved John Frederick Kennedy? What would be one’s intentions behind this atrocious action? Some say the government was behind his death; others say that it was Lee Harvey Oswald, maybe an African American, or even Jack Ruby. A conspiracy that the government was behind his death is another irrational theory. Over the years a numerous amount of investigators and researches have been evaluating the incident using evidence such as location, purchases made by Oswald, using information from witnesses; they even dug into Oswald’s personal life to find any information that would be a sufficient reason to kill the President. Although there are various conspiracies regarding the assassination of John F. Kennedy, there is also a surplus of evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald was indeed the assassin.…
The Soviet Union is another big theory that was discussed and argued about. As people think, he did it by himself; critics think he worked for the Soviet Union. He was a former marine who was sent to the Soviet Union and returned with a Russian wife (Who Killed JFK? 52 Years of Enduring Conspiracy Theories). The relations with Soviet Union and the US were very low. The bad relationship was because of the Cold War and the Nuclear Arms Race. Each of the sides were conspicuous of each other and caution. The Soviet Premier was embarrassed after having to back down because of the Cuban Missile Crisis (Bond). He could have ordered the assassination of JFK, so mad from the earlier events. Those could have played a role in the assassination involving…
I believe that the JFK assassination was lead by Lyndon Johnson. JFK was assassinated on a changed route by the government. JFK was “shot” by a man named Oswald. The event changed America forever. And what witnesses have seen from this event raised suspicions and conspiracy theories to this day.…
Many of the Warren Commission supporters claim they can find no motive for why a conspiracy would have taken place, but in disagreement, the Warren Commission has never presented an actual motive for either killer. In fact, there are many reasons why powerful groups would have wanted to kill President Kennedy as mentioned throughout this report. More information that pertains to the assassination of JFK, which has been secured by the government and unavailable to the public, will someday be available for one to possibly research thoroughly. In fact that time will be in 2030 and the United States government is required to release all remaining documents pertaining to the assassination (Murphy, 2001.). If the entire government, spearheaded by the CIA killed Kennedy, then they would not ever acknowledge it. Many other popular theories present good logical reasoning for why a good government cover-up would be in order.…
I started my researching who killed JFK and looking at an overall list of what the conspiracy theories where, then took the most widely regarded ones and dug a little deeper into them, looking into some of the reasoning behind their stances. After my research, I came to he conclusion the mafia were behind the assassination because that seemed like the most put together theory. It seemed likely that through his previous connection with the mafia, their influence in his election, their ties to dealings in Cuba before the Bay of Pigs, and the fact Robert wouldn’t let up on organize crime could all lead to something like an assassination. I believe I regarded this information critically, establishing my opinion on who killed JFK, but also having the reason to doubt that it is not a known fact who killed Kennedy and other theories may also have compelling evidence that I have to be open to hearing. Notably, I had never heard the theory that Kennedy arranged is own death before, but listening to Amanda talk about it in class you could sort of make understand and it made…
Some theories that circle around are that the Soviet Union did it. Oswald was connected to the Soviet Union. He married a Russian, and had a child with her before he returned to the U.S. The Soviets and the U.S. were in a cold war at this time and the Soviet Union was embarrassed for having to back down during the Cuban Missile Crisis, so some say Khrushchev ordered Oswald to assassinate Kennedy. Oswald’s connection to the Soviet Union makes this a compelling case in the assassination of JFK. (…
There are many confusing and scary stances on what the motives of Lee Harvey Oswald were that day when John F. Kennedy was assassinated. John F. Kennedy was assassinated over fifty years ago, yet it is still one of the most talked about mysteries of all time (Rubenstein). But why is this still one of the most talked about mysteries of all time? Many people across the country had a great love for John F. Kennedy. Like previously stated, some Americans may argue that John F. Kennedy was the greatest president of all time. Other countries had often wondered what it was about Kennedy that would have Americans place him on such a high pedestal compared to other politicians (Olmsted). Not only was Kennedy young and handsome, but also he had incorporated important ideas into our great country. Before his untimely death, he established the Peace Corps and had planned to send a man to the moon (“John F. Kennedy…
