The Case Of Lee Harvey Oswald's Assassination
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 .

The idea of Mr. Oswald killing the president is far fetched, and the “evidences” that pointed towards him are exaggerated. For example,

    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.…

    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 always showed a pattern of behavior during his short life which would have influenced a jury to conclude that he could have been responsible for the murder of the President of the United States.

    The Lone Gunman theory is the official explanation for the John F. Kennedy’s assassination, as arrived at by the Warren Commission after a review of the available evidence. The Warren Commission had stated this in the report of JFK’s assassination, “The bullets that killed Kennedy and injured Connally were fired by Oswald in three shots from a rifle pointed out of a sixth-floor window in the Texas School Book Depository.” According to this theory, JFK’s assassination involved a single gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald. The two bullet fragments found in the front seat of the Presidential limousine were fired from the 6.5-millimeter Mannlicher-Carcano rifle, which was found on the sixth floor of the Depository Building. Oswald had later on killed the police officer that had caught him and tried to question him which gave the public and government more of a reason to believe he was the assassinator of JFK.…

    It is bizarre conspiracy but one that provides some interesting statements. The president earlier said that he wanted to “splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds” (Bond). This statement alone made by JFK could have made CIA agents furious with Kennedy and have the motive to kill him. There might have been CIA agents undercover at the parade in Dallas where the president was. Some theories said that Oswald worked for CIA and did not do it all by himself.…

    There are so many theories on the JFK assassination but the ones that are the most common and the most logical are that the CIA set up Lee Harvey Oswald, the Mob set him up, or that he work as an independent. There are only solid and reasonable and facts behind those three hypothesis. Those are only the three major ones but there have been many different conspiracies and after public opinion polls consistently show that the people believe there was a conspiracy of some sort and they have a great reason to. Even though there are so many different conspiracies that researchers believe that up to 42 groups, 84 assassinators, and 214 people were viewed as possibilities in the assassination of Kennedy. Even strong beliefs that Oswald wasn't…

    There are many people that don’t accept the conclusion that the Warren Commission came to. In fact, a poll taken by CBS in 1993 found that only 11 percent of people thought that Oswald acted alone compared to 49 percent that thought the CIA was involved with the assassination (Morley 4). In 1978, an important report came out that gave the world even more reason to not believe the Warren Commission. The House Select Committee on Assassinations stated that it was likely Kennedy was assassinated as part of a conspiracy in a report that was released in 1978. It concluded this could mean multiple shooters and organized crime (“John F. Kennedy assassinated”).…

    Arguably, John F. Kennedy is said to be one of the greatest presidents to ever hold office in our country. Even more than fifty years after John F. Kennedy’s death, the public’s fascination with him withstands. More importantly, people found interest in the enduring mystery of who his assassin was and the reasoning behind the killing of a President so beloved to the nation. Providing evidence to this claim are more than two thousand volumes that have been published about his assassination, of which, a majority of those included a conspiracy theory (McHoskey 395). Harvey Lee Oswald did assassinate John F. Kennedy, but he was affiliated with the Soviet Union and was not just an independent gunman. Many Americans…

    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.…

    1. Lee Harvey Oswald did not by any means have a childhood that would be considered of the norm. He did not grow up in a home surrounded by loved ones who were always home. He did not have an abundance of friends to play with after school, but instead would sit in his house alone waiting for his mother to get home. Growing up Oswald did not have a steady father figure, did not have a steady school, and was sent to a Youth house at the age of fourteen. Putting all these factors together, one can see how Oswald had a rough childhood.…
