Lee Harvey Oswald: Mysteries In American History
Mysteries in American History

I think Lee Harvey Oswald may have been completely innocent. There are multiple facts that show a lot of evidence towards the fact that Oswald hadn't done anything at all on the day of November 22, 1963 when president John F. Kennedy was assassinated.
One of the things that disprove the theory that Oswald was carrying a gun into the Texas School Book Depository was that the gun that Oswald may or may not have owned would not have fit in the package that he was carrying to work. He said that I am carrying curtain rods to work in response to his friend asking him what was. In my opinion he may have actually been carrying curtain rods. More evidence to this is that 3 minutes before the shooting, Oswald was seen

    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.…

    They never asked the FBI to explain how no prints were found on Oswald’s rifle, and then Oswald’s palm print was found on the rifle. 3. They stated that the ammunition Oswald possessed for his rifle was of current manufacture but Mark Lane obtained a letter from the manufacturer stating that the ammunition had not been manufactured since 1945. Ammunition this old would be of very doubtful accuracy.…

    JFK LONE GUNMAN

    It is a well-known fact that President John F Kennedy was shot dead, assassinated in Dealey Plaza on the 22nd of November, 1963. What is still debated today however, is who killed Kennedy, and how many people were involved. One of the main contributing factors to this debate is the amount of potential forensic evidence destroyed, the question of how reliable some of the evidence is (, mainly eye-witness accounts), and the evidence that is yet to be released to the public (, why is it locked up, what light can it shed on the event?). Due to many problems surrounding the very evidence that historians, politicians and common people alike draw their opinions from, there can be no definitive conclusion as to whether JFK was killed by a lone gunman, or even who is ultimately responsible for his death. The evidence recovered on the assassination of JFK largely supports the theory of a lone gunman, the identity of this gunman however, is still hotly debated, but a significant portion of all evidence released to the public points to the lone gunman theory. The way this evidence supports the lone gunman theory is varied. Several eye witnesses claim…

    Lee Harvey Oswald was a crazy and mentally unstable man. He was in the U.S. Marines and was court-martialed twice in 1958 for having an illegal weapon and for being violent (“Lee” 4). The CIA would have not trusted this psychotic man to carry out a task as huge and risky as assassinating the president of the United States. Especially if he could not even behave in the U.S.…

    Despite his success as an actor on the national stage, John Wilkes Booth will forever be known as the man who assassinated President Abraham Lincoln. Booth, a native of Maryland, was a fierce Confederate sympathizer during the Civil War. Before the fateful night at Ford’s Theatre, he had conspired to kidnap Lincoln and hide him until all Confederate prisoners were released. On April 14, 1865, Booth entered the theater’s balcony, shot Lincoln at close range and immediately fled the scene. After a 12-day manhunt, Booth was tracked down and killed by Union…

    One of the most disputatious case in the history of America is the assassination of Mr. John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the Commander in Chief of the United States of America. In the Case of Lee Harvey Oswald, I will prove that Mr. Oswald is innocent without a shadow of a doubt, due to the conspicuous yet controversial facts and evidences that substantially stands out. Who in the right mind would think that Mr. Oswald is guilty, when he is just a regular citizen whose life seemed like a collection of clichés from a movie, even though he was a latchkey child, he was able to be independent and stand on his own .…

    As Oswald came into the room, Jack Ruby (1911-1967) emerged from the crowd and fatally wounded him with a single shot from a concealed .38 revolver. Ruby, who operated strip joints and dance halls in Dallas and had minor connections to organized crime, was immediately detained. He claimed that rage at Kennedy’s murder was the motive for his action” (History.com). According to History.com, “After a nearly yearlong investigation, the commission, led by Chief Justice Earl Warren (1891-1974), concluded that alleged gunman Lee Harvey Oswald (1939-1963) had acted alone in assassinating America’s 35th president, and that there was…

    His brother Robert Kennedy, who served as Attorney General during the Kennedy administration broke down on organized crime. One theory declares that the Mob was ireful with attempts by Robert. The mafia had no real interest in John F. Kennedy. Maybe his brother Robert, but not the President.Alliance between the Soviet Union and US were extremely low at the time of Kennedy's death, with both sides not able to trust each other. One popular theory is that Nikita Khrushchev, the Soviet Premier, instructed the attack on Kennedy because he was abashed at having to give up following the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 gave very good reasons not to like Kennedy to the Soviet security agency KGB. A version of the theory also suggests…

    Choosing my topic for National History Day was based on the long debated conspiracy of the reason behind the assassination of the President Lincoln. The majority of the history books written on this event condemned John Wilkes Booth as a national assassin, President killer, but rarely did they expand on why Booth pulled the trigger. I have gone in depth with my research to discover the answer and have produced a conclusion of Booth’s motives which was based on what in that era was called “the higher law”. The higher law in layman’s terms is based off moral and sometimes religious principle rather than follow the human law. It was believed that John Wilkes Booth’s motives might have been inspired by a man of the name John Brown.…
