This started as a book and was made into a TV special.
Now, pay close attention:
THIS IS THE BIGGEST BUNCH OF BS THAT WAS EVER PUT OUT BY ANY OF THE STUPID CONSPIRACY THEORISTS.
The claim was that a Secret Service Agent riding in the
back seat of the follow-up car behind JFK's car accidentally discharged his issued M-16 rifle, and that the bullet struck JFK in the back of the head.
At the time that the last bullet struck JFK there were six people sitting in the follow-up car and four on the running boards. Do you think for a minute that
ten people would have failed to hear a high powered rifle fired from
within the car?
"Ah," you say, "But they were Secret Service Agents covering for one of their own." Well, no. The person whose head was nearest the muzzle of the rifle, was JFK staffer, and loyalist, Ken O'Donnell, sitting in the jump seat in front of the agent. He could not have failed to hear the shot, and as a loyalist he would have not kept quiet about it. (Nor would the other agents, several of whom loved the Kennedy family.)
For a thorough debunking of this theory and other multi-shooter nonsense theories, read Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy by Vincent Bugliosi, the prosecutor in the Manson Family murder case.
This 1,632 page annotated book demolishes the popular multi-shooter theories that have cropped up over the years.
My experience has been that people taken in by these various theories have not even read the basic document on this case, The Warren Commission report. This 888 final report, annotated to reference many other documents, goes into deep detail of the investigation of the assassination of JFK.
Although it cannot be determined whether or not, or with whom, Oswald might had discussed the assassination, he is most assuredly the lone shooter on the day of the assassination.
