Jfk Assassination Conspiracy Theory
After JFK was assassinated there was a lot of conspiracies and theories on how he died but none of them have actually had the evidence to back up the theories. John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, he was shot by two bullets one in the head and one in the neck. He was riding in a limo with his wife and they were driving through the Dealey Plaza in Texas. One widely excepted theory was that Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK and injured Governor John Connally. In this theory Oswald was set up in a window and shot three bullets which hit JFK in the head and in the neck, and one struck the Governor. There is also another spin of of this theory called “The Grassy Knoll”. This theory says that Oswald wasn’t working alone, but he had help from CIA assassins that were disguised as homeless men by the grassy knoll on the north side of Elm Street. There are also some theories saying that Oswald wasn’t just a loner, but that he was paid to do this task, but by who? Well there are multiple such as; the CIA, the Mafia, the KGB aka the Russian mob. Some of the lesser accepted theories are the Illuminati and the Little Green Men. The Little Green Men which …show more content…
This theory is that Jackie Kennedy (JFK’s wife) killed JFK herself. Which I don’t see how people would believe this since one the assassination was in public with hundreds of people watching. The Man with the black umbrella is another theory that is pretty weird. On a bright and sunny day, a man wearing a rain coat and is holding an umbrella is standing almost right where the shots were fired from. All these theories and none of them have been proven, and yet Oswald was put in jail. Yes the theory that he killed JFK is very believable but our government is so secretive how do we know what to believe. They were so secretive and still are that even the presidents don’t even know “everything” that goes on in the country they

    The Single Bullet Theory was created by Warren Commission. The theory is crucial in supporting the claim that Oswald killed Kennedy alone. Three bullets were only shot: the one missed, the one that struck Kennedy’s head, and the single bullet. The time between the bullets would not allow for a fourth bullet to be shot. Unless there was another accomplice.…

    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…

    The first person who I think is responsible without a doubt is obviously Lee Harvey Oswald. But I don't believe Oswald fired all the shots, or the fatal shot to JFK's head. From watching the video, it pretty much made it obvious how almost impossible it would be for one man who is no way a world record shot by any means to fire a rifle three times in the amount of seconds Oswald did and be as accurate as he did. I believed he fired the shot that hit the ground and the shot that hit JFK in the back. I believe Oswald's main purpose was to be a scapegoat for the real assassin.…

    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.…

    The evidence that all points to Oswald is he was reported that he brought the rifle to work. The shots came from the sixth floor of the Depository, a storage building that the shots came from and where Oswald was proclaimed to be. All the shots were also known to have came from that floor. Witnesses stated in the warren report that they heard more than one gun shots from the depository from a gunmen standing in a window. After the…

    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.…

    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…

    Thoughts surrounding the JFK assassination are interesting and controversial. Conventional wisdom dictates that a single shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald, shot and killed President Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. However, there is evidence to support that there were multiple shooters and Lee Harvey Oswald was not in the position to shoot the bullets everyone said he did, and many people truly believe that to be so. It is simple to dismiss such conspiracy theory as imaginative fiction, but many people have done research to prove that the single shooter did not kill President Kennedy alone. I believe that someone with more power than Oswald carried out this assassination and framed Oswald, and will use research to support this claim.…
